Commenting on second quarter earnings, AIG President and Chief Executive
Officer Martin J. Sullivan said, "In a quarter where the company devoted
significant time and attention to its internal review, our operations stayed
focused on their customers and business, achieving good results. Market
conditions and other trends evident in the first quarter largely continued
through the second quarter. Worldwide General Insurance, Foreign Life Insurance
& Retirement Services and Consumer Finance were among our best performing
businesses. A flat yield curve affected our spread businesses, and transaction
volume in Domestic Life Insurance & Retirement Services and Capital Markets was
lower as a result of regulatory and related issues. Our second quarter results
were also adversely affected by the recording of a charge for the cumulative
effect of the correction of an error relating to certain manufacturers' payments
made for the benefit of ILFC. These factors were offset, however, by solid
underwriting results and strong investment returns throughout our businesses.
"General Insurance operating income before realized capital gains (losses)
increased 20.5 percent compared to the second quarter of 2004. The combined
ratio was 92.04. Premium growth of 4.2 percent reflects the underwriting
discipline that we are maintaining in an environment that has been characterized
by softer pricing in the domestic and international markets. Terms and
conditions continue to be largely unchanged. The Domestic Brokerage Group had a
combined ratio of 96.05, and the Foreign General combined ratio was an excellent
82.04. Domestic Personal Lines had premium growth of 7.5 percent and a combined
ratio of 95.92. Mortgage Guaranty had premium growth of 6.6 percent and a
delinquency ratio that continues to run well below the industry average. General
Insurance cash flow was $2.71 billion and $6.21 billion in the second quarter
and first six months of 2005, respectively. Pretax third quarter 2005 losses
arising from hurricanes Emily and Dennis are estimated to be $40 million.
"In the Life Insurance & Retirement Services business, operating income
before realized capital gains (losses) and including pricing net investment
gains increased 13.1 percent in the second quarter of 2005 compared to a year
ago. Our overseas operations were the strongest contributors to these results.
In addition to excellent business performance, foreign life results were
favorably affected by the weaker U.S. dollar.
"Foreign Life Insurance & Retirement Services operating income before
realized capital gains (losses) and including pricing net investment gains
increased 18.8 percent. Japan had strong first year premium growth of 31.8
percent in the second quarter, driven by strong life insurance sales at all
three of our companies. Total foreign annuity production rose 43.3 percent. We
are successfully leveraging the annuity product knowledge we have developed in
Japan and Korea into other markets where we have a strong local presence.
3
"Domestic Life Insurance & Retirement Services operating income before
realized capital gains (losses) increased 5.1 percent in the second quarter of
2005. Domestic Life Insurance had mixed results. Following the filing of our
2004 Form 10-K, the advisor-driven brokerage and affluent market platforms
experienced good recurring premiums in the last month of the quarter. Payout
annuity sales, were negatively affected by the tight spread environment,
although margins remain adequate as a result of our pricing discipline. The
Domestic Retirement Services business continued to be affected by challenging
market conditions. The second quarter sales environment for individual variable
annuities was affected by lackluster domestic equity markets, while the
flattening yield curve and competitive fixed income alternatives adversely
affected fixed annuity sales.
"Financial Services operating income, before the effect of FAS 133 and the
cumulative effect of the ILFC correction, declined 2.9 percent compared to the
second quarter of 2004. Weak Capital Markets results were somewhat offset by
excellent results in our global Consumer Finance business. ILFC continues to
benefit from improving lease rates and residual values and the demand for the
modern, fuel-efficient aircraft they provide. The Capital Markets business was
adversely affected by difficult market conditions and customer uncertainty
during much of the quarter surrounding the negative ratings actions and the
ongoing investigations. American General Finance has continued its strong
receivables growth, while maintaining its emphasis on controlling operating
expenses and adhering to strict underwriting guidelines, which is reflected in
its improving net charge off and delinquency ratios. Robust receivables growth
in the Poland consumer finance business and the Taiwan and Hong Kong credit card
businesses contributed to the strong performance in the overseas operations.
"Asset Management operating income increased by 10.0 percent in the second
quarter, or 8.4 percent excluding the effect of FIN46R, compared to second
quarter 2004. Third party assets under management increased to over $61 billion
from $55 billion at March 31, 2005. Significant new mandates for its
International Small Cap Equity, European Government Bond, and High Yield
strategies resulted in new assets for the Institutional Asset Management
business. The increase in Domestic Guaranteed Investment Contract (GIC)
operating income was primarily due to an increase in partnership income over the
prior year. The sharp decline in second quarter GIC deposits reflects the delay
in the launch of AIG's previously announced matched investment program.
"In conclusion, AIG performed well and demonstrated great resilience in
the second quarter of 2005. Our strong global presence, diverse product range
and the discipline and dedication of our employees around the world were
instrumental in achieving these results."

COMMENT ON REGULATION G
This press release, including the financial highlights, includes certain
non-GAAP financial measures. The reconciliations of such measures to the most
comparable GAAP figures in accordance with Regulation G are included within the
relevant tables or in the Second Quarter 2005 Supplementary Financial Data
available in the Investor Information section of AIG's corporate website,
www.aigcorporate.com.
Throughout this press release, AIG presents its operations in the way it
believes will be most meaningful and useful, as well as most transparent, to the
investing public and others who use AIG's financial information in evaluating
the performance of AIG. That presentation includes the use of certain non-GAAP
measures. In addition to the GAAP presentations, in some cases, revenues, net
income, operating income and related rates of performance are shown exclusive of
realized capital gains (losses), cumulative effect of an accounting change in
2004, the effect of FIN46R, the effect of FAS 133 and the cumulative effect of
the ILFC correction.
Although the investment of premiums to generate investment income (or
loss) and realized capital gains or losses is an integral part of both life and
general insurance operations, the determination to realize capital gains or
losses is independent of the insurance underwriting process. Moreover, under
applicable GAAP accounting requirements, losses can be recorded as the result of
other than temporary declines in value without actual realization. In sum,
investment income and realized capital gains or losses for any particular period
are not indicative of business performance for such period.
AIG believes that a major part of the discipline of a successful general
insurance company is to produce an underwriting profit, and it evaluates the
performance of and manages its operations on that basis. Providing only a GAAP
presentation of net income and operating income makes it much more difficult for
users of AIG's financial information to evaluate AIG's success or failure in its
basic business, that of insurance underwriting, and may, in AIG's opinion, lead
to incorrect or misleading assumptions and conclusions. The equity analysts who
follow AIG exclude the realized capital transactions in their analyses for the
same reason, and consistently request that AIG provide the non-GAAP information.
Life and retirement services production (premiums, deposits and other
considerations), gross premiums written, net premiums written and combined
ratios are presented in accordance with accounting principles prescribed or
permitted by insurance regulatory authorities because these are standard
measures of performance used in the insurance industry and thus allow for more
meaningful comparisons with AIG's insurance competitors.
