MBIA Inc. MBI (the Company) today reported Combined Operating Income (a non-GAAP measure defined in the attached Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures) of $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared with Combined Operating Income of $34 million in the same period of 2015. The decline in Combined Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily the result of a decrease in net premiums earned and an increase in losses and loss adjustment expenses (LAE).
Adjusted Book Value (ABV) per share (a non-GAAP measure defined in the attached Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures) increased to $31.74 as of March 31, 2016 from $29.69 as of December 31, 2015. The increase in ABV per share was driven primarily by a decrease in common shares outstanding resulting from share repurchases. The Company repurchased 15 million of its common shares during the first quarter of 2016.
Operating Income and ABV per share provide investors with views of the Company's operating results that management uses in measuring financial performance. Reconciliations of ABV per share to book value per share, and Operating Income to net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP, are attached.
Consolidated GAAP net loss was $78 million, or $(0.58) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2016 compared with consolidated net income of $69 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the same period of 2015. The unfavorable comparison was primarily due to foreign exchange related losses on financial instruments and mark-to-market losses on insured derivatives.

Statements from Company Representative
"National's new business platform continues to expand," said Bill Fallon, MBIA's Chief Operating Officer. "We are making steady headway with our expanded new business team despite the ongoing challenging business environment for our industry." Mr. Fallon added, "We continue to strive for appropriate resolutions for our Puerto Rico credits but progress remains slow as the debates rage as to the appropriate course of action for U.S. Congress to implement. We are also continuing with our financial progress with another quarter of operating income. The GAAP net loss for the quarter was driven by two large fair value items, as shown in the above table. MBIA Inc.'s liquidity position remains among our highest priorities, and we expect that continuing payments from National will satisfy MBIA Inc.'s future liquidity needs. Of note, our first quarter share repurchases drove an increase of $2.05 of our Adjusted Book Value for the quarter continuing our efforts to increase shareholder value as our new business efforts ramp up."
U.S. Public Finance Insurance Results
The Company's U.S. public finance insurance business is conducted through its subsidiary, National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation (National).
The U.S. Public Finance Insurance segment recorded GAAP net income of $41 million for the first quarter of 2016 versus $57 million for the first quarter of 2015. The decline in GAAP net income was primarily due to a decline in premiums earned and an unfavorable variance of $15 million for losses and LAE.
The U.S. Public Finance Insurance segment recorded $37 million of Operating Income in the first quarter of 2016 compared with $56 million of Operating Income in the same period of 2015. The decline in Operating Income was also primarily due to a decline in premiums earned and an unfavorable variance of $15 million for losses and LAE.
Total net premiums earned in the U.S. Public Finance Insurance segment were $58 million in the first quarter of 2016, down 32 percent from $85 million of total premiums earned in the same period of 2015. Premiums earned from refunded transactions decreased 36 percent and scheduled premiums earned declined by 26 percent. The decline in scheduled premiums earned resulted from portfolio amortization and high refunding volume over the last year.
National wrote $158 million gross par amount of new insurance during the first quarter of 2016, equal to the amount written during the fourth quarter of 2015 and up from $38 million in the first quarter of 2015. Gross premiums written during the first quarter of 2016 were $1.3 million, which was also the same as the fourth quarter of 2015 and up from $195 thousand in the first quarter of 2015.
Net investment income for the U.S. Public Finance Insurance segment was $31 million in the first quarter of 2016, 7 percent higher than the first quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily due to a higher average investment yield, partially offset by lower average investment balances, driven by tax payments and a dividend payment to MBIA Inc. in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The U.S. Public Finance Insurance segment recorded loss and LAE of $9 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to a benefit of $6 million in the first quarter of 2015. The unfavorable comparison in losses and LAE was primarily due to the increase in loss reserves for certain Puerto Rico credits in the first quarter of 2016.
The amortization of deferred acquisition costs totaled $12 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared with $18 million in the same period of 2015. The decrease in the amortization of deferred acquisition costs corresponds to lower premiums earned.
National's operating expenses were $15 million in the first quarter of 2016, down 6 percent from the $16 million in the same period of 2015, notwithstanding increases in National's headcount to expand and enhance new business production capabilities.
National had statutory capital of $3.4 billion and claims-paying resources totaling $4.7 billion as of March 31, 2016. National's insured portfolio declined by $11 billion during the quarter, ending the quarter with $150 billion of gross par outstanding.
Corporate
The corporate segment is responsible for general corporate activities, including managing the holding company's balance sheet and expense base, providing support services to MBIA's other operating businesses and other business development activities. Shared support services are provided by MBIA Services Corporation on a fee-for-service basis.
The corporate segment recorded a GAAP net loss of $84 million in the first quarter of 2016 versus net income of $15 million in the first quarter of 2015. The adverse variance was primarily due to a $116 million unfavorable change in net gains (losses) on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange that was primarily due to adverse changes from foreign exchange.
The corporate segment recorded an Operating Loss of $21 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared with an Operating Loss of $22 million in the same period of 2015.
As of March 31, 2016, MBIA Inc. held cash and liquid assets of $371 million, excluding $218 million of assets in its tax escrow account. During the first quarter of 2016, $105 million was released to MBIA Inc. from the tax escrow account in accordance with the Company's tax sharing agreement.
The Company's consolidated net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes as of March 31, 2016 was approximately $2.7 billion.
During the first quarter of 2016, the Company repurchased 15 million of its common shares at an average price of $6.30 per share. The Company has not repurchased any additional shares since February 25, 2016. As of May 5, 2016, there was $100 million of remaining authorized capacity under the Company's current share repurchase program.
International and Structured Finance Insurance Results
The international and structured finance insurance business is conducted primarily through MBIA Corp. and includes the results of MBIA Insurance Corporation, the New York-regulated insurer on a stand-alone basis, and its subsidiaries, MBIA UK Insurance Limited and MBIA Mexico S.A. de C.V.
The Company does not measure Operating Income for this segment. The international and structured finance insurance segment's contribution to consolidated GAAP net loss was a net loss of $31 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared with a net loss of $2 million in the same period of 2015. The higher net loss was driven by a $56 million unfavorable variance related to the net change in fair value on insured derivatives.
MBIA Corp.'s statutory net loss for the first quarter of 2016 was $55 million compared to statutory net income of $3 million for the first quarter of 2015. The unfavorable variance was driven by a $42 million increase in losses and LAE incurred. The statutory capital of MBIA Insurance Corporation as of March 31, 2016 was $844 million and claims-paying resources totaled $2.4 billion.
As of March 31, 2016, the liquidity position of MBIA Insurance Corporation (excluding its subsidiaries and branches) totaled $278 million consisting of cash and invested assets.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following are explanations of why the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, which serve to supplement GAAP information, are meaningful to investors.
Adjusted Book Value: Adjusted Book Value ("ABV"), a non-GAAP measure, is used by the Company to supplement its analysis of GAAP book value. The Company uses ABV as a measure of fundamental value and considers the change in ABV an important measure of periodic financial performance. ABV adjusts GAAP book value by removing the GAAP book value amounts for items that are not expected to impact shareholder value and to add in the impact of certain items which the Company believes will be realized in GAAP book value in future periods. The Company has limited such adjustments to those items that it deems to be important to fundamental value and performance and which the likelihood and amount can be reasonably estimated. ABV assumes no new business activity. The Company has presented ABV to allow investors and analysts to evaluate the Company using the same measure that MBIA's management regularly uses to measure financial performance. ABV is not a substitute for and should not be viewed in isolation from GAAP book value.
ABV per share represents that amount of ABV allocated to each common share outstanding at the measurement date.
Claims-paying Resources (CPR): CPR is a key measure of the resources available to National and MBIA Corp. to pay claims under their respective insurance policies. CPR consists of total financial resources and reserves calculated on a statutory basis. CPR has been a common measure used by financial guarantee insurance companies to report and compare resources and continues to be used by MBIA's management to evaluate changes in such resources. The Company has provided CPR to allow investors and analysts to evaluate National and MBIA Corp. using the same measure that MBIA's management uses to evaluate their resources to pay claims under their respective insurance policies. There is no directly comparable GAAP measure.
Combined Operating Income: The sum of Operating Income of the U.S. public finance insurance (National) and corporate segments net of eliminations. See "Operating Income" definition.
Operating Income/Loss: Operating Income/Loss is a useful measurement of performance because it measures income/loss from the Company's core operating segments, unaffected by investment portfolio realized gains and losses, gains and losses on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange, and realized gains and losses on extinguishment of debt. Operating Income/Loss also excludes net income/loss of the Company's non-core operating segments. The Company's non-core segment includes the activities of its international and structured finance insurance segment. Trends in the underlying profitability of the Company's businesses can be more clearly identified without the fluctuating effects of the excluded items noted above. Operating Income/loss is disclosed on an after-tax basis and adjustments to net income/loss are typically tax-effected at 35% unless a specific adjustment, or component thereof, is not taxable. Operating Income/Loss as defined by the Company does not include all revenues and expenses required by GAAP. Operating Income/Loss is not a substitute for and should not be viewed in isolation from GAAP net income/loss.
Operating Income/Loss per share represents that amount of Operating Income/Loss allocated to each fully diluted weighted-average common share outstanding for the measurement period.
