February 26, 1965 Officers and Directors William Penn Fraternal Association 436 — 4th Avenue Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15219 Re: 1964 Year of Operation^ Gentlemen: The following statistics represent certain highlights of information which will be contained in the actuarial report. This information is presented in advance of the longer and more detailed actuarial report so that it can be published for the benefit of your membership. The year 1964 was an excellent year for the Association, reflecting the best financial results since organization. Management is to be congratulated for this achievement. The assets continued to climb, reaching a new high of $30,892,544.78 as of December 31, 1964, and representing an increase of $817,417.75 over the assets as of December 31, 1963. The Association maintains admissible assets of $107.44 behind each $100.00 of liabilities as a safeguard and guarantee to all members that the benefits promised in the certificate will be paid when due. The Association again enjoyed a favorable year from an investment standpoint. The net rate of return during 1964 on mean ledger assets was 3.82%, representing a significant gain over the 1963 and 1962 rates. During 1964, the Association earned $1,140,170.54 after deducting all investment expenses. The amount earned exceeded that required to be earned to maintain interest bearing liabilities by $364,615.54, which compares favorably with the 1963 and 1962 excess interest earnings of $333,475.40 and $306,587.01 respectively. In spite of the excess interest earnings and capital gains realized, the Association continues to maintain the Security Valuation reserve as a further protection to its members against the possibility of adverse market fluctuations. As of December 31, 1964, $843,353.03 had been set aside for this purpose. The sum of $837,305.53 was set aside for this purpose at the end of 1963. During 1964, 3,288 new life certificates were issued for $6,113,050.00 of insurance. Total insurance in force increased to $88,702,604.00 at the end of the year on 78,310 certificates. In addition, the Association has issued and has outstanding over 13,000 Sick Benefit, Accident and Health and Hospitalization certificates. The Association has set aside $26,001,818.00 of life reserves and $620,525.00 of A & H reserves for the payment of future claims, which amounts are in addition to the amounts set aside for claims currently in process. Management continues its wise practice of setting aside sufficient funds with which to meet all known and contingent liabilities. The most important index of service to members is the total amount paid to members. During 1964, the Association paid $2,460,192.29 to its members which is consistent with payments of $2,313,591,58 and $2,377,974.77 in 1963 and 1962 respectively. A summary of the 1964 payments to members is as follows: Death Claims Matured Endowments Surrender Benefits A & H & Mise. Payments Dividends TOTAL $ 981,347.69 829,418.00 333,579.17 183,385.48 132,461.95 $2,460,192.29 During the year the Association enjoyed a net capital gain of $114,528.10 of which $47,588.04 was actually realized and $66,940.06 was not realized. Unrealized gains reflect increases in values which can be converted into realized gains by sale of the investment if Management should choose to do so. Profits in 1964 were substantial, amounting to $370,297.82 before dividends and $237,835.87 after dividends. Management voted to return 35.8% of all profits to the members in the form of dividends after giving due consideration to the funds which should be set aside to guarantee the safety of benefits on all members. Management is to be congratulated on the amount of profits developed during 1964 and the judicious application of these profits. In the opinion of the actuaries, the reserves and other liabilities set aside for payment of future claims, together with future premiums, will be sufficient to meet all future obligations as they arise without deduction or abatement.
