Allied Healthcare

  • A quality business with solid financial performance
  • Decision made to divest:

– A B2B business, Saga is a B2C business – Very little overlap of customer base – No opportunity to differentiate Saga’s offer and deliver a premium service – Investment in technology and systems needed to move the business to the next level, it is not what Saga does

  • We remain committed to private pay care

  • Aim to retain current underwritten book whilst taking on new broked risks with

higher margin: – Expansion of motor footprint – Higher margin broked business – Reduction in accounting revenue as net premium paid to underwriter will not be recognised in the books – One-off benefit from accelerating the earnings from broked policies – Transfer of underwriting margin

Impact of Allied decision

Impact on financials

  • Going forward, Allied will:

– No longer be treated as part of the continuing business – Be held for sale

  • In the 2014/15 preliminary results, there will be a significant, one-off write-down of historic

goodwill and potentially other related balance sheet items: – Current key items held on the balance sheet are as follows:

  • Goodwill: £178m
  • Intangible assets: £19m
  • Intercompany debtor: £27m
  • The private pay businesses of Country Cousins, Patricia White’s and Saga SOS will be

retained within continuing operations

Focused pricing

  • Rating analysis based on Saga

customer experience – Allows targeted pricing for this part of the market

  • e.g. no upper age limit for

new business – Typical customers are older, retired and drive low mileages

  • Extensive use of standard rating

factors (age, car, mileage etc), internal data (other products) and external data

  • Pricing is based on the claims

data, database insight and known changes to legislation

  • Saga Motor

Excellence in risk pricing

  • AA Motor Panel:

– Met our target return every financial year – One of largest insurers on panel – Lowest loss ratio on the panel in 2012 and 2013

  • Saga Home:

– Largest insurer on Saga Home panel1 – Loss ratio (to net premiums) of 44% in 2012 and 50% in 2013 – Lowest loss ratio for standard underwriters on the panel in 2012 and 2013

  • Saga Pet:

– Took Saga book in-house in 2012 – Net premium well below best external insurers – Delivered target return in 2012, 2013 and 2014

  • 1. 99% co-insured and remaining 1% reinsured to New India, so no underwriting risk remains with the Group.

Personal injury claims management

  • Used an external firm to benchmark our claims performance

– Peer group which includes most of the key players in the UK motor market – Personal injury claims represent around 55% of claims costs – For 2013, Saga had an average personal injury claim cost which was only 82% of the average for the peer group – Saga was the best performing underwriter in the benchmarking exercise – Saga Underwriting achieved a 7% reduction in average claims 2013 compared to 2012, compared to a 1% increase for other insurers – This has been enabled through a number of initiatives:

  • In Jan 2012, the Saga Underwriting business implemented a data-led project to reduce the amount it paid to third

party solicitors for small value personal injury claims

  • Since the MOJ Personal Injury reforms, the Saga Underwriting business has been tracking our average cost of

the general damage element of PI claims against the market. At the time of project implementation (Jan 12), Saga’s costs were c. 88% of that of the Market, post implementation it has consistently been c. 82%.

Summary of strategic impacts on cash flow/balance sheet

Balance sheet strategy

  • Strategy is focused on developing broking / capital light model
  • Deleveraged rapidly from 3.1x EBITDA at IPO to 2.5x as at 31 July 2014
  • Dividend for 2014/15 expected to be at top end of 40-50% of the Group’s

net income, excluding the impact of exceptional expenses and one-off items, that has accrued since the date of the IPO

  • The competitive dynamics of the

panel have been driven by: – Quality and attractiveness of Saga’s book, with 1.2m policies – Introduction of new underwriting capital – ‘Saga factor’ – proprietary data that cannot be replicated by other insurers – Net rates have fallen faster than the market
