Note 1 Reporting and Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
We are a holding company that provides, through our subsidiaries, personal automobile insurance with a focus on the nonstandard market. Although licensed to write insurance in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, we focus on select states that we believe offer the greatest opportunity for premium growth and profitability.
Basis of Consolidation and Reporting
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, focuses on our financial performance since the beginning of the year.
These financial statements reflect certain adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our results of operations and financial position. Such adjustments consist of normal, recurring accruals recorded to match expenses with their related revenue streams and the elimination of all significant inter-company transactions and balances.
We have evaluated events that occurred after March 31, 2015, for recognition or disclosure in our financial statements and the notes to the financial statements.
Schedules may not foot due to rounding.
Estimates
We based certain accounts and balances within these financial statements upon our estimates and assumptions. The amount of reserves for claims not yet paid, for example, is an item that we can only record by estimation. Unrealized capital gains and losses on investments are subject to market fluctuations, and we use judgment in the determination of whether unrealized losses on certain securities are temporary or other-than-temporary. Should actual results differ significantly from these estimates, the effect on our results of operations could be material. The results of operations for the periods presented may not be indicative of our results for the entire year.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In April 2015 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) related to the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and is to be applied retrospectively. The new guidance will have no impact on our results of operations or financial position.
In May 2014 the FASB issued an ASU related to the accounting for revenue from contracts with customers. Insurance contracts have been excluded from the scope of the guidance, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
We do not report our long-term debt at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The $294.7 million and $291.0 million fair value of our long-term debt at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, would be included in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy if it were reported at fair value.
Level 1 includes cash and cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury securities, an exchange-traded fund and equities held in a rabbi trust which funds our Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan ("SERP"). Level 2 includes securities whose fair value was determined using observable market inputs. Level 3 securities are comprised of (i) securities for which there is no active or inactive market for similar instruments; (ii) securities whose fair value is determined based on unobservable inputs; and (iii) securities, other than those backed by the U.S. Government, that are not rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization ("NRSRO"). We recognize transfers between levels at the beginning of the reporting period.
A third party nationally recognized pricing service provides the fair value of securities in Level 2. We review the third party pricing methodologies quarterly and test for significant differences between the market price used to value the security and recent sales activity.
The following tables present the progression in the Level 3 fair value category ($ in thousands):

Of the $3.0 million fair value of securities in Level 3 at March 31, 2015, which consists of eight securities, we priced five based on non-binding broker quotes, one price was provided by our unaffiliated money manager and two securities, which were included in Level 3 because they were not rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, were priced by a nationally recognized pricing service.
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, one security was transferred from Level 2 into Level 3 because it was no longer rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. There were no transfers of securities between Levels 1 and 2.

Note 4 Investments
We consider all fixed maturity and equity securities to be available-for-sale and report them at fair value with the net unrealized gains or losses reported after-tax (net of any valuation allowance) as a component of other comprehensive income. The proceeds from sales of securities for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and March 31, 2014, were $99.9 million and $65.0 million, respectively. The proceeds for the three months ended March 31, 2015, were net of $3.6 million of receivable for securities sold during the first quarter of 2015 that had not settled at March 31, 2015. The proceeds for the three months ended March 31, 2014, were net of $0.2 million of receivable for securities sold during the first quarter of 2014 that had not settled at March 31, 2014.
Gross gains of $2.1 million and gross losses of $0.6 million were realized on sales of available for sale securities during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with gross gains of $0.8 million and gross losses of $0.1 million realized on sales during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gains or losses on securities are determined on a specific identification basis.

The determination of whether unrealized losses are “other-than-temporary” requires judgment based on subjective as well as objective factors. Factors we considered and resources we used in our determination include:
| |
• | whether the unrealized loss is credit-driven or a result of changes in market interest rates; |
| |
• | the length of time the security’s market value has been below its cost; |
| |
• | the extent to which fair value is less than cost basis; |
| |
• | the intent to sell the security; |
| |
• | whether it is more likely than not that there will be a requirement to sell the security before its anticipated recovery; |
| |
• | historical operating, balance sheet and cash flow data contained in issuer SEC filings; |
| |
• | near-term prospects for improvement in the issuer and/or its industry; |
| |
• | industry research and communications with industry specialists; and |
| |
• | third-party research and credit rating reports. |
We regularly evaluate for potential impairment each security position that has either of the following: a fair value of less than 95% of its book value or an unrealized loss that equals or exceeds $100,000.

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For fixed maturity securities that are other-than-temporarily impaired, we assess our intent to sell and the likelihood that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of our amortized cost. If a fixed maturity security is considered other-than-temporarily impaired but we do not intend to and are not more than likely to be required to sell the security before our recovery of amortized cost, we separate the amount of the impairment into a credit loss component and the amount due to all other factors ("non-credit component"). The excess of the amortized cost over the present value of the expected cash flows determines the credit loss component of an impairment charge on a fixed maturity security. The present value is determined using the best estimate of cash flows discounted at (1) the effective interest rate implicit at the date of acquisition for non-structured securities or (2) the book yield for structured securities. The techniques and assumptions for determining the best estimate of cash flows vary depending on the type of security. We recognize the credit loss component of an impairment charge in net earnings and the non-credit component in accumulated other comprehensive income. If we intend to sell or will, more likely than not, be required to sell a security, we treat the entire amount of the impairment as a credit loss.
The following table is a progression of credit losses on fixed maturity securities that were bifurcated between a credit and non-credit component ($ in thousands):

Note 5 Long-Term Debt
In September 2012 we issued $275 million principal of senior notes due September 2022 (the “5.0% Senior Notes”). The 5.0% Senior Notes accrue interest at 5.0%, payable semiannually. At the time we issued the 5.0% Senior Notes, we capitalized $2.2 million of debt issuance costs, which we are amortizing over the term of the 5.0% Senior Notes. We calculated the March 31, 2015, fair value of $294.7 million using a 196 basis point spread to the ten-year U.S. Treasury Note of 1.925%.
In August 2014 we renewed our agreement for a $50 million three-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) that requires us to meet certain financial and other covenants. We are currently in compliance with all covenants under the Credit
Agreement. At March 31, 2015, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The $2.1 million of favorable reserve development during the three months ended March 31, 2015, was primarily due to decreases in loss adjustment expense in Florida bodily injury coverages and in California property damage and bodily injury coverages related to accident year 2013.
The $3.1 million of favorable reserve development during the three months ended March 31, 2014, was primarily due to a decrease in frequency in accident year 2013 in Florida personal injury protection and material damage coverages in the states of California, Georgia and Pennsylvania.
Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
There have been no material changes from the commitments discussed in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. For a description of our previously reported commitments, refer to Note 14 Commitments and Contingencies in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
INFINITY PROPERTY AND CASUALTY CORPORATION FORM 10-Q
Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Contingencies
From time to time we and our subsidiaries are named as defendants in various lawsuits incidental to our insurance operations. We consider legal actions relating to claims made in the ordinary course of seeking indemnification for a loss covered by the insurance policy in establishing loss and LAE reserves.
We also face, in the ordinary course of business, lawsuits that seek damages beyond policy limits, commonly known as extra-contractual claims, as well as class action and individual lawsuits that involve issues not unlike those facing other insurance companies and employers. We continually evaluate potential liabilities and reserves for litigation of these types using the criteria established by the Contingencies topic of the FASB. Under this guidance we may only record reserves for a loss if the likelihood of occurrence is probable and we can reasonably estimate the amount. If a material loss is judged to be reasonably possible, we will disclose an estimated range of loss or state that an estimate cannot be made. We consider each legal action using this guidance and record reserves for losses as warranted by establishing a reserve captured within our Consolidated Balance Sheets line-items “Unpaid losses and LAE” for extra-contractual claims and “Other liabilities” for class action and other non-claims related lawsuits. We record amounts incurred on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings within “Losses and LAE” for extra-contractual claims and “Other expenses” for class action and other non-claims related lawsuits.
Certain claims and legal actions have been brought against us for which we have accrued no loss, and for which an estimate of a possible range of loss cannot be made under the above rules. While it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of these claims or lawsuits, we do not believe they are likely to have a material effect on our financial condition or liquidity. However, losses incurred because of these cases could have a material adverse impact on net earnings in a given period.
For a description of previously reported contingencies, refer to Note 14 Commitments and Contingencies in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

ITEM 2
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” which anticipate results based on our estimates, assumptions and plans that are subject to uncertainty. We make these statements subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements in this report not dealing with historical results or current facts are forward-looking and we base them on estimates, assumptions and projections. Statements which include the words “assumes,” “believes,” “seeks,” “expects,” “may,” “should,” “intends,” “likely,” “targets,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates” or the negative version of those words and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. Examples of such forward-looking statements include statements relating to expectations concerning market conditions, premium growth, earnings, investment performance, expected losses, rate changes and loss experience.
The primary events or circumstances that could cause actual results to differ materially from what we expect include determinations with respect to reserve adequacy, realized gains or losses on the investment portfolio (including other-than temporary impairments for credit losses), loss cost trends, and competitive conditions in our key Focus States. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any of the forward-looking statements. For a more detailed discussion of some of the foregoing risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements see “Risk Factors” contained in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
OVERVIEW
During the first three months of 2015 total gross written premium grew 3.6% compared with the same period of 2014. The majority of this growth came from California personal auto and countrywide Commercial Vehicle, which grew a combined 14.6% compared with the prior year. Partially offsetting premium growth in these two areas was premium decline of 42.7% for the combined states of Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania as we have shifted our focus in these states to renewal only business. See Results of Operations – Underwriting – Premium for a more detailed discussion of our gross written premium growth.
Net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2015, were $11.2 million and $0.97, respectively, compared with $10.3 million and $0.89, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was primarily due to an improvement in underwriting profitability.
Included in net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was $1.4 million ($2.1 million pre-tax) of favorable development on prior accident year loss and LAE reserves. The development was primarily due to decreases in loss adjustment expense in Florida bodily injury coverages and in California property damage and bodily injury coverages related to accident year 2013. Included in net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2014, was $2.0 million ($3.1 million pre-tax) of favorable development on prior accident year loss and LAE reserves.

Our book value per share increased 1.6% from $60.75 at December 31, 2014, to $61.73 at March 31, 2015. This increase was primarily due to an increase in unrealized gains and earnings partially offset by dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Underwriting
Premium
Our insurance subsidiaries provide personal automobile insurance products with a concentration on nonstandard auto insurance. While there is no industry-recognized definition of nonstandard auto insurance, we believe that it is generally understood to mean coverage for drivers who, because of their driving record, age or vehicle type, represent higher than normal risks and pay higher rates for comparable coverage. We also write commercial vehicle insurance and insurance for classic collectible automobiles (“Classic Collector”).
We are licensed to write insurance in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, but we focus our operations in targeted urban areas identified in selected Focus States that we believe offer the greatest opportunity for premium growth and profitability.
We classify the states in which we operate into two categories:
| |
• | “Focus States” – These states include Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. |
| |
• | “Other States” – Includes Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania where we currently offer renewals only, as well as additional states where we are running off our writings. |
Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania were previously included in the Focus States category. All prior period data has been adjusted to reflect the updated state classification.
We continually evaluate our market opportunities; thus, the Focus States and Other States may change over time as new market opportunities arise, as the allocation of resources changes or as regulatory environments change.

Gross written premium grew 3.6% during the first three months of 2015 when compared with the same period of 2014. During the first three months of 2015 Infinity implemented rate revisions in various states with an overall rate increase of 1.5%. Excluding the effect of rate changes in California and Florida, the states in which we write the most premium, the overall rate increase was 0.8%. Policies in force at March 31, 2015, decreased 2.9% compared with the same period in 2014. Gross written premium grew despite the decline in policies in force primarily due to an increase in average premiums per policy in California.
During the first three months of 2015 personal auto insurance gross written premium in our Focus States grew 5.8% when compared with the same period of 2014. The increase in gross written premium was primarily due to growth in California, which grew 13.3% during the first three months of 2015 when compared with the first three months of 2014, and was primarily due to our focus on territories with higher average written premium and an increase in new business. The growth in the Focus States during the first three months of 2015 was partially offset by declining gross written premium in the Other States as we discontinued writing new business in Georgia, Nevada and Pennsylvania effective January 1, 2015.
Commercial Vehicle gross written premium grew 22.8% during the first three months of 2015 when compared with the same period of 2014. This growth was primarily due to new and renewal policy growth and higher average premium in Florida, California and Texas.
Gross written premium in our Classic Collector product grew 8.1% during the first three months of 2015 when compared with the same period of 2014. This growth was primarily due to growth in renewal business in Florida, Texas, North Carolina and California.

Profitability
A key operating performance measure of insurance companies is underwriting profitability, as opposed to overall profitability or net earnings. We measure underwriting profitability by the combined ratio. When the combined ratio is under 100%, we consider underwriting results profitable; when the ratio is over 100%, we consider underwriting results unprofitable. The combined ratio does not reflect investment income, other income, interest expense, corporate general and administrative expenses, other expenses or federal income taxes.
While we report financial results in accordance with GAAP for shareholder and other users’ purposes, we report it on a statutory basis for insurance regulatory purposes. We evaluate underwriting profitability based on a combined ratio calculated using statutory accounting principles. The statutory combined ratio represents the sum of the following ratios: (i) losses and LAE incurred as a percentage of net earned premium; and (ii) underwriting expenses incurred, net of installment and other fees, as a percentage of net written premium. Certain expenses are treated differently under statutory and GAAP accounting principles. Under GAAP, commissions, premium taxes and other variable costs incurred in connection with writing new and renewal business are capitalized as deferred policy acquisition costs and amortized on a pro rata basis over the period in which the related premium is earned; on a statutory basis these items are expensed as incurred. Additionally, bad debt charge-offs on agent balances and premium receivables are included only in the GAAP combined ratios.
The following tables present the statutory and GAAP combined ratios:

In evaluating the profit performance of our business, we review underwriting profitability using statutory combined ratios. Accordingly, the discussion of underwriting results that follows will focus on these ratios and the components thereof, unless otherwise indicated.
The statutory combined ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2015, decreased by 0.8 point from the same period of 2014. The first three months of 2015 included $2.1 million of favorable development on prior accident year loss and LAE reserves, while the first three months of 2014 included $3.1 million of favorable development on prior accident year loss and LAE reserves. Excluding the effect of development, the statutory combined ratio decreased 1.1 points for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with the same period of 2014.
The GAAP combined ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2015, decreased by 0.5 point from the same period of 2014. Excluding the effect of development, the GAAP combined ratio decreased by 0.8 point for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with the same period of 2014. The decline in both the statutory and GAAP combined ratios excluding development is primarily due to a decrease in the California accident year combined ratio.
Losses from catastrophes were $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. There were no catastrophe losses for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
INFINITY PROPERTY AND CASUALTY CORPORATION 10-Q
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The 1.4 points decline in the Focus States loss & LAE ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2015, is primarily due to improvement in calendar year loss ratios in Florida, Texas and California as a result of favorable development from prior accident year loss and LAE reserves as well as an increase in average earned premiums.
The combined ratio in the Other States increased by 12.2 points during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase is primarily due to unfavorable development from prior accident year loss and LAE reserves in the states of Georgia and Nevada.
The combined ratio in Commercial Vehicle decreased by 2.7 points, during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with the same period of 2014, primarily due to favorable development from prior accident year loss and LAE reserves.

Installment and Other Fee Income
Installment and other fee income, which is primarily made up of installment and other fees charged to policyholders, was relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with the same period of 2014, increasing from $24.3 million to $24.6 million.

The book yield on our portfolio continues to exceed our new money rates. Therefore, we expect that investment returns will continue to decline gradually as proceeds from maturing or prepaid investments are expected to be reinvested at yields lower than the average book yield for the total portfolio.
The following table provides information about our fixed maturity investments at March 31, 2015, which are sensitive to interest rate risk. The table shows expected principal cash flows by expected maturity date for each of the five subsequent years and collectively for all years thereafter. Callable bonds and notes are included based on call date or maturity date depending upon which date produces the most conservative yield. MBS and sinking fund issues are included based on maturity year adjusted for expected payment patterns.

For our securities held with unrealized losses, we believe, based on our analysis, that (i) we will recover our cost basis in these securities; and (ii) we do not intend to sell the securities nor is it more likely than not that there will be a requirement to sell the securities before they recover in value. Should either of these beliefs change with regard to a particular security, a charge for impairment would likely be required. While it is not possible to predict accurately if or when a specific security will become impaired, charges for other-than-temporary impairments could be material to results of operations in a future period.
Interest Expense
At March 31, 2015, we had $275 million of Senior Notes outstanding that accrue interest at 5.0% (the "5.0% Senior Notes"). We recognized $3.4 million of interest expense on the Senior Notes in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings for both the three months ended March 31, 2015, and 2014. Refer to Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Senior Notes. Income Taxes
Our GAAP effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was 31.3% compared with 29.5% for the same period of 2014. The GAAP effective tax rate has increased in 2015 primarily as a result of an improvement in the underwriting profit, which is taxed at 35%. Refer to Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources of Funds
We are a holding company and our insurance subsidiaries conduct our operations. Accordingly, we will have continuing cash needs for administrative expenses, the payment of interest on borrowings, shareholder dividends, share repurchases and taxes.
Funds to meet expenditures at the holding company level come primarily from dividends and tax payments from the insurance subsidiaries, as well as cash and investments held by the holding company. As of March 31, 2015, the holding company had $136.3 million of cash and investments. In 2015 our insurance subsidiaries may pay us up to $68.1 million in ordinary dividends without prior regulatory approval. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, our insurance subsidiaries have paid us ordinary dividends of $15.0 million.
Our insurance subsidiaries generate liquidity to satisfy their obligations primarily by collecting and investing premium in advance of paying claims and generating investment income on their $1.4 billion investment portfolio. Our insurance subsidiaries generated positive cash flows from operations of $33.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with positive operating cash flows of $54.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
At March 31, 2015, we had $275 million principal outstanding of Senior Notes. The Senior Notes accrue interest at 5.0%, payable semiannually each March and September. Refer to Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on our long-term debt. In August 2014 we renewed our agreement for a $50 million three-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) that requires us to meet certain financial and other covenants. We are currently in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. At March 31, 2015, there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit agreement.
In June 2013 we filed a "shelf" registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering $300.0 million of our securities, which will allow us to sell any combination of senior or subordinated debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, warrants, depositary shares and units in one or more offerings should we choose to do so in the future.
Uses of Funds
In February 2015 we increased our quarterly dividend to $0.43 per share from $0.36 per share. At this current amount, our 2015 annualized dividend payments would be approximately $19.7 million.
On November 4, 2014, our Board of Directors increased the authority of our share and debt repurchase program to a total of $75 million and extended the date to execute the program from December 31, 2014, to December 31, 2016. During the first quarter of 2015 we repurchased 25,800 shares at an average cost, excluding commissions, of $77.46 per share.
We believe that cash balances, cash flows generated from operations or borrowings, and maturities and sales of investments are adequate to meet our future liquidity needs and those of our insurance subsidiaries.
Reinsurance
We use excess of loss, catastrophe and extra-contractual loss reinsurance to mitigate the financial impact of large or
catastrophic losses. During 2015 our catastrophe reinsurance protection covers 100% of $55 million in excess of $5 million. Our excess of loss reinsurance provides protection for commercial auto losses up to $700,000 for claims in excess of $300,000 per occurrence. Our extra-contractual loss reinsurance provides protection for losses up to $10 million in excess of $5 million for any single extra-contractual loss. We also use reinsurance to mitigate losses on our Classic Collector business.
Premium ceded under all reinsurance agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was $3.6 million, compared with $2.9 million for the same period of 2014.
INFINITY PROPERTY AND CASUALTY CORPORATION 10-Q

Investments
Our consolidated investment portfolio at March 31, 2015, contained approximately $1.4 billion in fixed maturity securities, $94.5 million in equity securities and $1.8 million in short-term investments. All of these are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of shareholders’ equity, on an after-tax basis. At March 31, 2015, we had pre-tax net unrealized gains of $25.4 million on fixed maturities and pre-tax net unrealized gains of $17.8 million on equity securities. Combined, the pre-tax net unrealized gain increased by $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. This increase occurred primarily in the fixed portfolio due to lower market interest rates. The average option adjusted duration of our fixed maturity portfolio was 3.0 years at March 31, 2015, compared with 3.1 years at December 31, 2014.
Since we carry all of these securities at fair value in our balance sheet, there is virtually no effect on liquidity or financial condition upon the sale and ultimate realization of unrealized gains and losses.
Approximately 91.3% of our fixed maturity investments at March 31, 2015, were rated “investment grade,” and as of the same date, the average credit rating of our fixed maturity portfolio was AA-. Investment grade securities generally bear lower yields and have lower degrees of risk than those that are unrated or non-investment grade. We believe that a high quality investment portfolio is more likely to generate a stable and predictable investment return.
Fair values of instruments are based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1); (ii) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets (Level 2); or (iii) valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in the marketplace (Level 3).
Our Level 1 securities are U.S. Treasury securities, an exchange-traded fund and equity securities held in a rabbi trust. Our Level 2 securities are comprised of securities whose fair value was determined using observable market inputs. Our Level 3 securities are comprised of (i) securities for which there is no active or inactive market for similar instruments; (ii) securities whose fair value is determined based on unobservable inputs; and (iii) securities that nationally recognized statistical rating organizations do not rate.

If all three ratings are available but not equivalent, we exclude the lowest rating and the lower of the remaining ratings is used. If ratings are only available from two agencies, the lowest is used. This methodology is consistent with that used by the major bond indices.
