Insurance Operations Highlights
- 85.5% second-quarter 2021 property casualty combined ratio, improved from 103.1% for the second quarter of 2020.
- 10% growth in second-quarter net written premiums, reflecting price increases and premium growth initiatives.
- $235 million second-quarter 2021 property casualty new business written premiums, up 12%. Agencies appointed since the beginning of 2020 contributed $17 million or 7% of total new business written premiums.
- $14 million second-quarter 2021 life insurance subsidiary net income, up $2 million from the second quarter of 2020, and 2% growth in second-quarter 2021 term life insurance earned premiums.

- Three-month increase of 5% in fair value of total investments at June 30, 2021, including a 6% increase for the stock portfolio and 4% increase for the bond portfolio.

Property Casualty Operations Producing Results
Steven J. Johnston, chairman, president and CEO, commented: "We continued to achieve strong non-GAAP operating income results, increasing that measure 311% to $292 million in the second quarter. Our property casualty insurance operations led the way, earning $221 million in pretax underwriting profit for the quarter. Investment income continued its steady contribution, growing 5% compared with second-quarter 2020.
"The change in accounting rules adopted in 2018 that we've mentioned in the past continues to cause volatility in net income results as unrealized investment gains and losses flow through that number. For instance, our second-quarter net income decreased $206 million compared to the second quarter of 2020 when stock markets were rebounding from pandemic-induced effects early last year. However, when you look at our net income for the first half of 2021 in total compared with the first half of 2020, you'll see a positive swing of $1.640 billion.
"Looking closer at our insurance operations, property casualty underwriting produced our best results in 15 years, making strides in both our quarterly and first-half combined ratios in all of our major areas of business. Lower weather-related catastrophe losses supported by our initiatives to deepen product and geographic diversification helped our property casualty insurance operations improve our second-quarter and first-half combined ratios 17.6 points and 12.5 points, respectively, to 85.5% and 88.3%."
Getting Back to Business
"In the past few months, we've had opportunities to visit in person with the outstanding independent agencies that represent Cincinnati Insurance in their communities. Their excitement for the future is palpable.
"Property casualty new business written premiums reached another record high in the second quarter, growing 12% to $235 million compared with last year, as production from recently appointed agencies accelerates. Our underwriters select and price new business from our agencies with confidence as we continue to hone our abilities in both pricing precision and policy segmentation.
"Total property casualty net written premium growth for the first six months returned to pre-pandemic levels, increasing 11% compared with the first half of 2020. Growth was 10% for the first-half and full-year 2019. Overall renewal pricing trends developed satisfactorily with standard commercial and personal lines policies averaging percentage increases in the mid-single-digit range and excess and surplus lines policies in the high-single-digit range.
"By seeking increased pricing on those accounts that need it most and remaining competitive on our agents' best-performing accounts, we are able to strike a nice balance between growth and profitability."
Book Value at Record High
"At June 30, our book value again reached a record high, increasing 10% since December 31, 2020. Consolidated cash and total investments also reached a new high, topping $24 billion.
"Our ample capital allows us to execute on our long-term strategies and, at the same time, continue to pay dividends to shareholders. Our value creation ratio, which considers the dividends we pay as well as growth in book value, was 11.6% for the first half of 2021, in line with our 10% to 13% average annual target for this measure."

- $24 million or 26% growth in second-quarter 2021 excess and surplus lines net written premiums, including higher renewal written premiums that benefited from price increases averaging in the high-single-digit percent range. Twenty-two percent growth in six-month net written premiums.
- $4 million or 13% increase in second-quarter new business written by agencies and six-month increase of 10%, as we continue to carefully underwrite each policy in a highly competitive market.
- 12.5 percentage-point second-quarter 2021 combined ratio improvement and a 4.8 percentage-point improvement for the six-month period, primarily due to more favorable reserve development on prior accident years.
- 1.4 percentage-point second-quarter 2021 benefit from favorable prior accident year reserve development of $1 million, compared with 11.0 points or $8 million of unfavorable development for second-quarter 2020.
- $3 million of unfavorable prior accident year reserve development for the first six months of 2021, compared with $9 million for the first six months of 2020. The 2021 unfavorable development was due to a first-quarter updated estimate for salaries and expenses to adjust claims.

- Less than $1 million increase in second-quarter 2021 earned premiums, including a 2% increase for term life insurance, our largest life insurance product line.
- $25 million increase in six-month 2021 life insurance subsidiary net income, largely reflecting investment losses resulting from impairments of fixed-maturity securities during the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by less favorable mortality experience in the first six months of 2021 due in part to higher pandemic-related death claims incurred in the first three months of 2021.
- $8 million or 1% six-month 2021 increase, to $1.425 billion, in GAAP shareholders' equity for the life insurance subsidiary, primarily from net income that was partially offset by a decrease in unrealized investment gains.

Safe Harbor Statement
This is our "Safe Harbor" statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our business is subject to certain risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements in this report. Some of those risks and uncertainties are discussed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Item 1A, Risk Factors, Page 34.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to:
- Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that could affect results for reasons such as:
- Securities market disruption or volatility and related effects such as decreased economic activity that affect the company's investment portfolio and book value
- An unusually high level of claims in our insurance or reinsurance operations that increase litigation-related expenses
- An unusually high level of insurance losses, including risk of legislation or court decisions extending business interruption insurance in commercial property coverage forms to cover claims for pure economic loss related to the COVID-19 pandemic
- Decreased premium revenue and cash flow from disruption to our distribution channel of independent agents, consumer self-isolation, travel limitations, business restrictions and decreased economic activity
- Inability of our workforce, agencies or vendors to perform necessary business functions
- Ongoing developments concerning business interruption insurance claims and litigation related to the COVID-19 pandemic that affect our estimates of losses and loss adjustment expenses or our ability to reasonably estimate such losses, such as:
- The continuing duration of the pandemic and governmental actions to limit the spread of the virus that may produce additional economic losses
- The number of policyholders that will ultimately submit claims or file lawsuits
- The lack of submitted proofs of loss for allegedly covered claims
- Judicial rulings in similar litigation involving other companies in the insurance industry
- Differences in state laws and developing case law in the relatively few decisions rendered to date
- Litigation trends, including varying legal theories advanced by policyholders
- Whether and to what degree any class of policyholders may be certified
- The inherent unpredictability of litigation
- Unusually high levels of catastrophe losses due to risk concentrations, changes in weather patterns, environmental events, terrorism incidents or other causes
- Increased frequency and/or severity of claims or development of claims that are unforeseen at the time of policy issuance
- Inadequate estimates, assumptions or reliance on third-party data used for critical accounting estimates
- Declines in overall stock market values negatively affecting the company's equity portfolio and book value
- Prolonged low interest rate environment or other factors that limit the company's ability to generate growth in investment income or interest rate fluctuations that result in declining values of fixed-maturity investments, including declines in accounts in which we hold bank-owned life insurance contract assets
- Domestic and global events resulting in capital market or credit market uncertainty, followed by prolonged periods of economic instability or recession, that lead to:
- Significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a particular security or group of securities and impairment of the asset(s)
- Significant decline in investment income due to reduced or eliminated dividend payouts from a particular security or group of securities
- Significant rise in losses from surety and director and officer policies written for financial institutions or other insured entities
- Our inability to integrate Cincinnati Global and its subsidiaries into our ongoing operations, or disruptions to our ongoing operations due to such integration
- Recession or other economic conditions resulting in lower demand for insurance products or increased payment delinquencies
- Difficulties with technology or data security breaches, including cyberattacks, that could negatively affect our ability to conduct business; disrupt our relationships with agents, policyholders and others; cause reputational damage, mitigation expenses and data loss and expose us to liability under federal and state laws
- Disruption of the insurance market caused by technology innovations such as driverless cars that could decrease consumer demand for insurance products
- Delays, inadequate data developed internally or from third parties, or performance inadequacies from ongoing development and implementation of underwriting and pricing methods, including telematics and other usage-based insurance methods, or technology projects and enhancements expected to increase our pricing accuracy, underwriting profit and competitiveness
- Increased competition that could result in a significant reduction in the company's premium volume
- Changing consumer insurance-buying habits and consolidation of independent insurance agencies that could alter our competitive advantages
- Inability to obtain adequate ceded reinsurance on acceptable terms, amount of reinsurance coverage purchased, financial strength of reinsurers and the potential for nonpayment or delay in payment by reinsurers
- Inability to defer policy acquisition costs for any business segment if pricing and loss trends would lead management to conclude that segment could not achieve sustainable profitability
- Inability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends consistent with current or past levels
- Events or conditions that could weaken or harm the company's relationships with its independent agencies and hamper opportunities to add new agencies, resulting in limitations on the company's opportunities for growth, such as:
- Downgrades of the company's financial strength ratings
- Concerns that doing business with the company is too difficult
- Perceptions that the company's level of service, particularly claims service, is no longer a distinguishing characteristic in the marketplace
- Inability or unwillingness to nimbly develop and introduce coverage product updates and innovations that our competitors offer and consumers expect to find in the marketplace
- Actions of insurance departments, state attorneys general or other regulatory agencies, including a change to a federal system of regulation from a state-based system, that:
- Impose new obligations on us that increase our expenses or change the assumptions underlying our critical accounting estimates
- Place the insurance industry under greater regulatory scrutiny or result in new statutes, rules and regulations
- Restrict our ability to exit or reduce writings of unprofitable coverages or lines of business
- Add assessments for guaranty funds, other insurance–related assessments or mandatory reinsurance arrangements; or that impair our ability to recover such assessments through future surcharges or other rate changes
- Increase our provision for federal income taxes due to changes in tax law
- Increase our other expenses
- Limit our ability to set fair, adequate and reasonable rates
- Place us at a disadvantage in the marketplace
- Restrict our ability to execute our business model, including the way we compensate agents
- Adverse outcomes from litigation or administrative proceedings
- Events or actions, including unauthorized intentional circumvention of controls, that reduce the company's future ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
- Unforeseen departure of certain executive officers or other key employees due to retirement, health or other causes that could interrupt progress toward important strategic goals or diminish the effectiveness of certain longstanding relationships with insurance agents and others
- Events, such as an epidemic, natural catastrophe or terrorism, that could hamper our ability to assemble our workforce at our headquarters location
Further, the company's insurance businesses are subject to the effects of changing social, global, economic and regulatory environments. Public and regulatory initiatives have included efforts to adversely influence and restrict premium rates, restrict the ability to cancel policies, impose underwriting standards and expand overall regulation. The company also is subject to public and regulatory initiatives that can affect the market value for its common stock, such as measures affecting corporate financial reporting and governance. The ultimate changes and eventual effects, if any, of these initiatives are uncertain.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliation to Comparable GAAP Measures
(See attached tables for reconciliations; additional prior-period reconciliations available at cinfin.com/investors.)
Cincinnati Financial Corporation prepares its public financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Statutory data is prepared in accordance with statutory accounting rules for insurance company regulation in the United States of America as defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' (NAIC) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, and therefore is not reconciled to GAAP data.
Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its primary business areas – property casualty insurance, life insurance and investments. Management uses these measures when analyzing both GAAP and non-GAAP results to improve its understanding of trends in the underlying business and to help avoid incorrect or misleading assumptions and conclusions about the success or failure of company strategies. Management adjustments to GAAP measures generally: apply to non-recurring events that are unrelated to business performance and distort short-term results; involve values that fluctuate based on events outside of management's control; supplement reporting segment disclosures with disclosures for a subsidiary company or for a combination of subsidiaries or reporting segments; or relate to accounting refinements that affect comparability between periods, creating a need to analyze data on the same basis.
- Non-GAAP operating income: Non-GAAP operating income is calculated by excluding investment gains and losses (defined as investment gains and losses after applicable federal and state income taxes) and other significant non-recurring items from net income. Management evaluates non-GAAP operating income to measure the success of pricing, rate and underwriting strategies. While investment gains (or losses) are integral to the company's insurance operations over the long term, the determination to realize investment gains or losses on fixed-maturity securities sold in any period may be subject to management's discretion and is independent of the insurance underwriting process. Also, under applicable GAAP accounting requirements, gains and losses are recognized from certain changes in market values of securities without actual realization. Management believes that the level of investment gains or losses for any particular period, while it may be material, may not fully indicate the performance of ongoing underlying business operations in that period.
For these reasons, many investors and shareholders consider non-GAAP operating income to be one of the more meaningful measures for evaluating insurance company performance. Equity analysts who report on the insurance industry and the company generally focus on this metric in their analyses. The company presents non-GAAP operating income so that all investors have what management believes to be a useful supplement to GAAP information. - Consolidated property casualty insurance results: To supplement reporting segment disclosures related to our property casualty insurance operations, we also evaluate results for those operations on a basis that includes results for our property casualty insurance and brokerage services subsidiaries. That is the total of our commercial lines, personal lines and our excess and surplus lines segments plus our reinsurance assumed operations known as Cincinnati Re and our London-based global specialty underwriter known as Cincinnati Global.
- Life insurance subsidiary results: To supplement life insurance reporting segment disclosures related to our life insurance operation, we also evaluate results for that operation on a basis that includes life insurance subsidiary investment income, or investment income plus investment gains and losses, that are also included in our investments reporting segment. We recognize that assets under management, capital appreciation and investment income are integral to evaluating the success of the life insurance segment because of the long duration of life products.
