CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

O. Fa)r. jeD m( f ire oi kh uC nmanirahC

Distinguished Fellow Shareholders, Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, thI welcome you all, on behalf of the Board of Directors, to the 40 Annual General Meeting of our

great Company Aiico Insurance Plc., holding at Calabar, Cross Rivers State. The occasion is an opportunity to review the performance of the Company and to present to you, the Annual Report

stand Accounts for the year ended 31 December, 2009.

As a prelude to that presentation, I will briefly highlight some of the key factors that have affected our performance over the period.

Business Environment:

The global economy continued to be impacted by the financial crises of 2008, with weak global demand, and credit contraction inhibiting global output in 2009. Across the globe, different governments had to employ stimulus packages to induce demand and to lower uncertainty and reduce systemic risks in their financial markets.

12 2009 Annual Report & Accounts

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT (continued)

These measures yielded significant results in the global economy, particularly in the last quarter of 2009. The downturn in the world economy abated with many key economies getting out of recession by year end. United States, a number of countries in the Euro Zone, China and Asia fared better than expected.

In Africa, the impact of the global economic crisis on nations remained a function of the degree of their exposure to the global economy. Most African countries were affected by weak export demand, low oil and commodity prices, low credit penetration and weak capital inflows.

For Nigeria, the effect of the global financial crisis continue to filter into the nation's economy partly through trade and capital flight as the local stock market bowed to selling pressure. The Nigerian Stock Exchange All-Share Index closed the year at 20,827.17 points, a 33.8% decrease over the preceding year's figure of 31,450.78 points. Turnover dropped by a whopping N685.72bn, a 71.2% decline, when compared with the turnover of N2.4tn recorded in 2008. The market value of the 216 listed equities closed the year at N4.9tn, down by 28.9% from the N6.9tn opening value at the beginning of the year.

In the banking sector of the economy, CBN's special audit revealed liquidity, capital adequacy and corporate governance challenges in 10 banks. This led to the removal of the management team of eight of the banks. The CBN further injected N620bn to support the affected banks. The consequences of the intervention of the CBN was the near total absence of access to credit facilities by customers of these banks especially companies and entrepreneurs, leading to low foreign portfolios investment, and low investor confidence.

Revenue derivable from oil also declined. Although oil prices averaged US$61 per barrel, this remained well above the budget benchmark of US$45.00 per barrel. Since output averaged 1.7m barrel per day, as against the 2.29m barrels per day budgeted, the expected benefits were lost, as external reserves hovered around US$42.41bn for the major part of the year, a 19.7% decrease over last year's figure of US$52.82 bn. This translates into an aggregate decline of 35% over the 2008 position. This dealt a massive blow on the Federal Governments revenue projection. Government sought to augment the shortfall in the Federal Revenue Account by drawing from the Excess Crude Oil Account.

In the power sector, the Federal Government's target of 6,000 megawatts per hour of power generation for the year could not be met, and inadequate power supply posed further challenges to industrial capacity utilization, economic recovery and development since businesses had to generate their own energy.

Overall the real gross domestic product growth rate in 2009 was estimated at a paltry 6.9%. Single digit inflation target of 8.2% was not achieved as general price increases averaged 12.4% for 2009.

Infrastructural development was slow, businesses still generate their own energy, expend huge time and cost in the haulage of products from one part of the country to another because of the deplorable state of our roads. Multiplicity of taxes and constant harassment by agents of Local Governments of businesses are on the increase. The issue of kidnaping in major parts of the South-East and South-South region, was a major challenge to people and businesses during the year under review, as businesses had to invest heavily in security.

As a result of these challenges and falling oil revenues, Standard & Poor's reduced Nigeria's sovereign credit rating from A- to B+ as at August 2009.

The efforts of the Federal Government must however be acknowledged. The Amnesty deal has brought some measure of stability into the Niger Delta Region, the banking industry reforms and the passage of the Asset Management Corporation (AMC) had statutory effects on the financial sector of the economy, and the increased attention to the problem of infrastructural decay will on the long run, benefit our economy.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT (continued)

2009 Annual Report & Accounts 13

The Insurance Industry:The ongoing reform in the financial sector has not spared the Insurance Industry. The National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) took a decision to change the financial reporting format for all companies in the industry to follow the IAS (International Accounting Standards) retroactively, and as a result of this, most players in the industry have had to grapple with the attendant pressure. The net effect of this change is expected to make the industry stronger with adequate capacity to withstand systemic shocks usually triggered by inadequate or compromised capital base.

The unfavorable business environment characterized by sluggish economic growth and weak infrastructure continued to create very serious challenge to our business. The financial turmoil was further aggravated by stiff competition and unscrupulous practices.

Despite the harsh operating environment, we are confident of a brighter future for insurance business in Nigeria. If the Market Development and Restructuring Initiatives (MDRI) that was unveiled in August 2009 by the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) is properly implemented, the industry will witness a rapid growth of insurance premium and provision of jobs in the sector.

Meanwhile, our company is assiduous to build on the growth and expansion strategies without losing focus on quality underwriting and risk management acumen.

As a demonstration of our commitment towards the provision of total quality service that would surpass customer expectations, we have commenced the enhancement of our automated service delivery by acquiring Enterprise Wide Risk Management (ERM) System to complement both the business process and our rejuvenated website. This step will further provide value addition to our clients and present our Company with significant opportunities.

Operating ResultsDespite the challenging environment, your company was able to achieve its fundamental objective of consistent profitability and sustainable growth. Total Gross Premium underwritten for the year increased by N1.3 billion, i.e. 17.73%. Premium income for the Life Business recorded a 36.8% growth, but had to be credited to revenue account, to increase the life fund. This is in compliance with directives of the National Insurance Commission that all insurance companies should revert to the Fund Accounting format for reporting their financials effective 2009.

However, during the year under review, your Company made a profit after tax of N1.04 billion as against the N625 million made in 2008, representing a growth of 67.21%. Shareholders' Fund grew by closing at N12.88 billion, while total asset of your Company increased by 19.75%, to close at N24.83 billion.

Dividendst

Dear Shareholders, for the financial year ended 31 December, 2009, the Board of Directors is pleased to recommend to you, at this Annual General Meeting, the payment of a total of N220m (Two hundred and twenty-two Million

thNaira) representing 2k per ordinary share of fifty kobo each. This dividend will be payable, if approved on the 25 October, 2010 to shareholders subject to deduction of appropriate withholding tax.

Board of DirectorsAt this meeting, myself, Mr. 'Deji Akinyanju, together with Chief Eugene Okwor will be retiring by rotation in accordance with the provision of the Articles of Association of the Company, and being eligible, offer ourselves for re-election.

The efforts of employees of this great company cannot be over-emphasized. Both staff and management, through dedication to duties and uncommon loyalty contributed immensely to the achievements being celebrated today.

Conclusion

Finally, I will, on your behalf, express my sincere thanks to my colleagues on the Board, for their meaningful contributions to the growth and success of this great Company, the Management and staff for their selfless service despite the challenging operating environment, and my appreciation to our numerous policy holders, agents and brokers for their unflinching support.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONSFOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009

LIFE OPERATIONS

The adverse economic situation that prevailed for the greater part of 2009 notwithstanding, our Life Business was able to sustain its growth potential by recording an increase of 37%.

The gross premium income rose from N3.58 billion in 2008 to N4.90 billion in 2009. This feat was achieved through our renewed marketing strategy and concerted efforts on the part of our vibrant agency force.

The net premium increased proportionately by 36% from N3.38 billion in 2008 to N4.59 billion in 2009.

The growth in the volume of business especially for the risk based products, the decline in the standard of living and increased health hazards traceable to harsh economic condition contributed to the 30% rise in life claims settled from N324 million in 2008 to N421 million in 2009. Our prudent underwriting process will continue to provide the required platform for proper risk analysis and equitable premium determination.

Declining consumer purchasing power and rise in unemployment rate contributed to the increase in surrender value payments by 55%. N658 million was paid in 2009 compared with N423 million in 2008. Maturity benefit payments declined by 12.5% from N659 million in 2008 to N576 million in 2009.

As the government progresses in the enforcement of Pension Reform Act, an increased momentum of Group Life business is anticipated in the coming year. We are resolute in our quest to identify the needs of our potential customers and ensure that they are adequately met through the provision of appropriate products.

We intend to leverage on our new ICT platform to enhance service delivery to clients.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 (continued)

The industry braced up to face its diverse challenges in 2009, despite the turbulence in the financial sector.

Due to the increase in awareness, the public is now very conversant with Insurance cover thus leading to a corresponding rise in claims paid. As a result, the company has paid huge sums in claims in recent times reiterating, thus our stand on prompt settlement of all genuine claims. The company, through its strategic focus was able to make a slight positive impact in the industry.

In 2009 our Gross Premium Income increased slightly from N3.893b (2008) to N3.899b also the net premium income grew from N3.345b (2008) to N3.612b showing an increase of 7.98%.

REPORT OF THE AUDITORSTO THE MEMBERS OF INSURANCE PLCAIICO

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERSOF AIICO INSURANCE PLC

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Aiico Insurance Plc (“the Company”) and its subsidiary (“together referred to as the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2009, the consolidated profit and loss accounts and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Directors' Responsibility for the Financial StatementsThe Directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements. This responsibility includes: designing, implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.

Auditors' ResponsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on these Consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, which require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

OpinionIn our opinion, proper books of accounts have been kept by the group and the financial statements which are in agreement therewith, give a true and fair view of the financial position of the group as at December 31, 2009, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with relevant statements of accounting standards issued by the Nigerian Accounting Standards Board, Insurance Act 2003 and Companies and Allied Matters Act, CAP C20 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004.
