* These measures are not based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("non-GAAP"). They are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the supplemental numerical pages of this document. An explanation of these measures is contained in the Glossary of Selected Terms included as an exhibit in the company's reports filed with the SEC.

(A) Reflects the retrospective adoption on January 1, 2012 of new accounting guidance for deferred policy acquisition costs. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the company's results of operations, but did decrease shareholders' equity $31.6 million, or 2.9%, after tax at January 1, 2012.

"Horace Mann's third quarter operating income was $0.62 per share, a $0.38 increase compared to the prior year.  We continue to focus on profitably growing our businesses and are pleased with another quarter of stronger underlying earnings performance across all three segments of our multiline insurance platform," said Horace Mann's President and CEO Peter H. Heckman.  "In property and casualty, catastrophe losses of $5.4 million pretax were lower than expected, underlying profit margins and retention improved, and top line growth continued.  Despite a challenging interest rate environment, our fixed annuity spread remained above 2%.  And, in our life segment, third quarter sales of Horace Mann products increased 25% compared to last year.  Meanwhile, book value per share, excluding the fair value adjustment for investments, increased to $21.24 per share, an 11% improvement compared to a year ago."

"Primarily as a result of the lower than expected catastrophe losses, as well as stronger than anticipated earnings in the annuity and life segments, we are revising our full-year 2012 operating income guidance to between $1.85 and $1.95 per share," stated Heckman.

Property and Casualty Segment

The property and casualty segment recorded net income of $13.5 million for the quarter compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2011.  The total property and casualty combined ratio of 93.0% was 11.6 percentage points lower than the third quarter of 2011.  Pretax catastrophe losses in the current quarter of $5.4 million decreased $12.9 million compared to a year ago.  Favorable prior years' reserve development totaling $3.0 million was recorded in the third quarter, compared to $2.0 million of favorable development recorded in the third quarter of 2011.  The underlying property and casualty combined ratio of 91.2% decreased 1.5 percentage points compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting favorable current accident year property results excluding catastrophes as well as an improvement in the underlying auto combined ratio.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, property and casualty segment net income of $22.6 million improved $34.1 million compared to the net loss for the same period in 2011, primarily as a result of the lower level of catastrophe losses.  Reflecting the factors described above, the year to date underlying combined ratio was 93.2% for the current period.

Total property and casualty premiums written of $146.5 million and $413.6 million increased slightly compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, with increases in average property and auto premiums per policy largely offset by reduced levels of policies in force for both lines.

True new auto sales units -- units associated with new Horace Mann auto policyholders -- increased 18% in the current quarter and 30% year to date compared to the prior year.  The growth in total new auto units, tempered by a modest increase in the number of additional vehicles added to existing policies, was 11% and 16% compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  In addition, property new sales units increased 16% and 17% compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2011, respectively.

Annuity Segment

Annuity segment net income was $9.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, increasing $5.2 million compared to the same period in 2011 and contributing to an $8.9 million increase compared to the first nine months of 2011.  The net interest margin on fixed annuity assets increased 17% compared to the first nine months of 2011, with the year-to-date net interest spread of 2.11% increasing 12 basis points compared to the same period in 2011.  Driven by the change in financial market performance, the evaluation of deferred policy acquisition costs in the quarter had a $0.5 million pretax positive impact on annuity segment earnings compared to a $4.8 million negative impact in the prior year.  In the year-to-date periods, the respective evaluations had a positive impact of $1.3 million pretax in the current year and a negative impact of $4.7 million pretax last year.  Total accumulated account value of $4.7 billion increased 13% compared to September 30, 2011, and total cash value persistency of 95.0% improved approximately 1 percentage point compared to a year earlier.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, annuity deposits received of $114.5 million and $302.9 million decreased 12% and 5% compared to the respective prior year periods, primarily due to the decrease in single deposit and rollover receipts for the third quarter of 2012.

Total annuity sales decreased 13% compared to last year's strong third quarter and for the nine months were comparable to the same period in 2011.  Within the year-to-date result, annuity sales by Horace Mann's agency force increased 12%, while sales from the supplemental independent agent distribution channel declined year-over-year.

Life Segment

Life segment net income of $4.9 million for the third quarter increased $1.3 million compared to the same period in 2011.  Compared to the first nine months of 2011, life segment net income increased $2.5 million.  The improvement in both periods was primarily due to lower mortality costs in the current year.  Life persistency of 96% improved approximately 1 percentage point compared to 12 months earlier.

Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits of $24.2 million and $71.7 million increased approximately 1% compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.

Total new life sales continued to be strong compared to the prior year, with third quarter and nine month growth rates of 25% and 32%, respectively, in sales of Horace Mann-manufactured products -- consistent with the company's strategic intent to significantly increase its underwritten, mortality-based business.

Investment Results

In 2012, total net investment income increased 7% compared to both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.  Pretax net realized investment gains were $10.8 million in the third quarter of 2012 and included no impairment write-downs on securities.

Horace Mann's net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities of $647.7 million at September 30, 2012 increased 18.0% compared to the $548.7 million net unrealized gain at June 30, 2012.  Net unrealized gains were $441.1 million at December 31, 2011 and $428.2 million at September 30, 2011.

Capital Management

During the third quarter of 2012, the company repurchased 96,029 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $1.7 million, or an average price per share of $17.53, under its $50 million share repurchase program.  As of September 30, 2012, the program had a remaining authorization of $34.3 million.  There were 39,378,349 shares outstanding on September 30, 2012.

Webcast Conference Call

Horace Mann's senior management will discuss the company's third quarter performance with investors and analysts on October 25, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.  The conference call will be webcast live on the Internet at www.horacemann.com and archived later in the day for replay, which will be available for one month.
