Medicare Risk health care costs increased by $48.0 million, or 4%, for the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in the Medicare Risk health care cost PMPM was 3% for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. Medicare Risk health care costs increased primarily as a result of higher physician and inpatient claim costs and increased capitation expense related to Medicare rate adjustments for 2003 and 2004 totaling $9.7 million, which were recognized in 2005 (See “-Health Plan Services Premiums” for detail regarding the increase in premium revenue related to the 2003 and 2004 Medicare rate adjustment). These increases were partially offset by provider settlements of $14.6 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2004.

Hedge Documentation and Effectiveness Testing. We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes associating all derivatives designated as fair value or cash flow hedges with specific assets or liabilities on the statement of financial position or with specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. Effectiveness of the hedge is formally assessed at inception and throughout the life of the hedging relationship. Even if a derivative is highly effective and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment, the hedge might have some ineffectiveness.

On January 19, 2016, an individual filed a qui tam suit captioned United States of America ex rel. Steven Scott v. Humana, Inc., in United States District Court, Central District of California, Western Division. The complaint alleges certain civil violations by us in connection with the actuarial equivalence of the plan benefits under Humana’s Basic PDP plan, a prescription drug plan offered by us under Medicare Part D, as compared to required benefit levels under applicable bid rules. The action seeks damages and penalties on behalf of the United States under the False Claims Act. The court ordered the qui tam action unsealed on September 13, 2017, so that the relator can proceed, following notice from the U.S. Government that it is not intervening at this time. We take seriously our obligations to comply with applicable CMS requirements and actuarial best principles, and we intend to vigorously defend against these allegations.

The total carried net losses and loss expense reserves for these claims were $22.7 million as of December 31, 2016 and $23.2 million as of December 31, 2015. The emergence of these claims occurs over an extended period and is highly unpredictable. For example, within our Standard Commercial Lines book, certain landfill sites are included on the National Priorities List (“NPL”) by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”). Once on the NPL, the USEPA determines an appropriate remediation plan for these sites. A landfill can remain on the NPL for many years until final approval for the removal of the site is granted from the USEPA. The USEPA has the authority to re-open previously closed sites and return them to the NPL. We currently have reserves for nine customers related to six sites on the NPL.

The Mortality sector encompasses our business with exposure to the mortality risk. For our company, as a reinsurer, the main danger is that the actual mortality in a portfolio may diverge negatively from our expectations. Mortality business is traditionally a core component of life and health reinsurance. This is reflected in the gross premium volume of EUR 2,833.5 million (EUR 2,824.6 million) generated in 2013. At 46.1%, it contributes the lion’s share of total premium income. In the US risk-oriented life reinsurance market we further expanded our share to more than 10%. This is all the more gratifying given that the market itself contracted again – as it had already in 2012. Irrespective of this, our focus was on further optimising our portfolio management, which we shall continue to do in the coming years.

We periodically evaluate ultimate loss and loss adjustment expense estimates for the workers’ compensation and other casualty claims using a combination of commonly accepted actuarial methodologies such as the Bornhuetter-Ferguson and chain-ladder approaches using paid and incurred loss data. Paid and incurred loss data is segregated and analyzed by state due to the different state regulatory frameworks that may impact certain factors, including the duration and amount of loss payments. We also separately study the various components of liabilities, such as employee lost wages, medical expenses and the costs of claims investigations and administration. We establish case liabilities for reported claims based upon the facts and circumstances of the claim. The excess of the ultimate projected losses, including the expected development of case estimates, and the case-basis liabilities is included in IBNR liabilities.

The pre-tax yields on the Lloyd's Operations' investments approximated 3.4%, 2.4% and 1.7% for 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Generally, the Lloyd's Operations' investments have been invested with a relatively short average duration, which is reflected in the yield, in order to meet liquidity needs. The increase in the Lloyd's Operations 2006 yield compared to 2005 is reflective of the current yield environment driven somewhat by the 2006 increases made to the Federal Funds Rate by the Federal Reserve. The increase in the Lloyd's Operations' 2005 yield compared to 2004 is reflective of the gradual increase in interest rates during 2005. Lloyd's average duration was 1.0 years at December 31, 2006 compared to 1.3 years at December 31, 2005. Such yields are net of interest credits to certain reinsurers for funds withheld by our Lloyd's Operations.

Although our reinsurance business is directed to us through these independent agent relationships, the life insurance and annuity policies that we currently reinsure are underwritten and issued by various ceding life companies. In the insurance industry, the term “ceding” refers to the use of reinsurance to transfer from one insurance company to another some or all of the risks associated with one or more insurance policies. We often refer to a life insurance company that reinsures life insurance and annuity policies through us as a “ceding life company.” The strength of our current reinsurance business is based on our historical relationship with the independent agents of World Financial Group.

We hold interests in certain LPs that generate earnings from trading portfolios, secured debt, and private equity investments. The improved results for 2013 principally reflect earnings recognized as a result of a change of an LP from the cost method to the equity method as well as higher earnings from a private equity LP. When there is a change from the cost to the equity method, GAAP requires retroactive recording of accumulated earnings since the origination of the investment. As the amounts are not material in the current period or any of the prior periods affected, prior period financial statements have not been restated. Earnings included our portion of the LP’s accumulated earnings from the date of initial investment, which totaled $10.5 million, $8.4 million of which was related to prior periods.

In doing so, it takes into consideration the compensation policies of other companies in the financial services industry, drawing its findings from publicly available information and studies by independent external experts. Comparable companies in the insurance sector in Switzerland used for the purposes of providing relevant information for the current compensation policy included Allianz, AXA, Baloise Insurance, Swiss Re, Zurich Insurance Group and Helvetia.

Inflation has had an impact on claim costs and overall operating costs and although it has been lower in the last few years, hospital and medical costs have still increased at a higher rate than general inflation, especially prescription drug costs. New, more expensive and wider use of pharmaceuticals is inflating health care costs. We will continue to establish premium rates in accordance with trends in hospital and medical costs along with concentrating on various cost containment programs. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts by us will fully offset the impact of inflation or that premiums will equal or exceed increasing healthcare costs.

We contract with the United States Office of Personnel Management (“OPM”) and with various federal employee organizations to provide health insurance benefits under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (“FEHBP”). These contracts are subject to government regulatory oversight by the Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) of OPM, which performs periodic audits of these benefit program activities to ensure that contractors meet their contractual obligations with OPM. For our managed care contracts, the OIG conducts periodic audits to, among other things, verify that premiums established under its contracts are in compliance with community rating requirements under the FEHBP. The OPM may seek premium refunds or institute other sanctions against health plans that participate in the program. For our experience-rated plans, the OIG focuses on the appropriateness of contract charges, the effectiveness of claims processing, financial and cost accounting systems, and the adequacy of internal controls to ensure proper contract charges and benefit payments. The OIG may seek refunds of costs charged under these contracts or institute other sanctions against health plans. These audits are generally a number of years in arrears. We estimate and record reserves for audit and other contract adjustments for both our managed care contracts and our experience rated plans based on appropriate guidelines and historical results. Any differences between actual results and estimates are recorded in the year the audits are finalized.

Society benefits from the company’s cost efficiency and ability to develop its business operations, as competitive products are continuously sought and made available to customers, while resources committed to outdated structures are released for other purposes. Maintaining competitiveness and making structural changes can sometimes mean that the staff has to adapt to changes in workforce demand. Recent years have seen Sampo’s staff decrease in number, but the company has sought to implement the reductions in a responsible way through pension schemes, retraining and support packages. The company also offers its staff opportunities to develop their skills and competence, and it provides incentives. Staff surveys conducted during 2004 showed that work satisfaction levels had increased from the previous year.

The fair values of certain assets and liabilities are determined using prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement (i.e., Level 3 as defined by ASC Topic 820), including but not limited to liquidity spreads for investments within markets deemed not currently active. These valuations, whether derived internally or obtained from a third-party, use critical assumptions that are not widely available to estimate market participant expectations in valuing the asset or liability. In addition, the Company has determined, for certain financial instruments, an active market is such a significant input to determine fair value that the presence of an inactive market may lead to classification in Level 3. In light of the methodologies employed to obtain the fair values of financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3, additional information is presented below.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $2,314.3 million and $2,214.4 million, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under its debt agreements and was in compliance with all covenants under those agreements. As of December 31, 2014, the average interest rate on long-term debt outstanding was 5.69% compared to 5.76% at the end of 2013. The ability of the Company to make debt principal and interest payments depends on the earnings and surplus of subsidiaries, investment earnings on undeployed capital proceeds, available liquidity at the holding company, and the Company’s ability to raise additional funds. Scheduled repayments of debt over the next five years and thereafter total $2.2 million in 2015, $2.5 million in 2016, $302.6 million in 2017, $2.7 million in 2018, $402.8 million in 2019 and $1,606.3 million thereafter.

A three-level valuation hierarchy has been established under GAAP for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of a financial instrument as of the measurement date. To determine the fair value of securities available-for-sale in Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, independent pricing sources, as described in "Valuation process," have been utilized. One price is provided per security based on observable market data. To ensure securities are appropriately classified in the fair value hierarchy, we review the pricing techniques and methodologies of the independent pricing sources and believe that their policies adequately consider market activity, either based on specific transactions for the issue valued or based on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield and structure that were recently traded.

However, the extent to which the computer operations and other systems of the Company's important third parties are adversely affected could, in turn, affect the Company's ability to communicate with such third parties and could materially affect the Company's results of operations in any period or periods.

In addition, proposals intended to control the cost and availability of health care services have been debated in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures. Although we do not write health insurance, rules affecting health care services can affect other insurance that we write, including workers compensation and commercial and personal automobile and liability insurance. We cannot determine whether or in what form health care reform legislation may be adopted by the U.S. Congress or any state legislature. We also cannot determine the nature and effect, if any, that the adoption of health care legislation or regulations, or changing interpretations, at the federal or state level would have on us.

Prior to the IPO, the Company maintained a QLH Class B Restricted Unit Plan (the "QLH Plan"), whereby QLH had the authority to issue units in the form of profits interests to directors, employees, managers, independent contractors, and advisors of QLH and its subsidiaries upon approval of the Board of Directors. The Class B units were equity-classified share-based payments and were recognized utilizing the straight-line method. The fair value of the QLH Class B profits interests was determined on the grant date using the option pricing model. As per the original award terms, all unvested Profit Interest Units on the IPO date were exchanged into QLH Class B-1 units, which when vested, together with Class B common stock are exchangeable for Class A common stock. The awards are no longer in the form of profits interests post-IPO.
