Roy Thung, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our operating income was adversely impacted by unexpectedly large health claims and unusually large legal and other expenses in connection with employment matters and the closing of a branch office. As a result of recessionary pressures and tighter underwriting guidelines, our premiums have decreased 6.0% for the first six months of 2009 compared to the first six months of 2008. In response to the decrease in premiums, we have initiated significant cost reductions in the fully insured division, which will be largely realized beginning in 2010." Mr. Thung continued, "Even in the current challenging economy, our financial condition remains strong. Our insurance companies' statutory surplus at June 30, 2009 is at an all-time high. The Company recorded an increase in book value per share to $12.70 at June 30, 2009 from $10.56 at December 31, 2008, primarily as a result of a reduction in unrealized losses due to mark-to-market accounting on our available-for-sale securities.
