99.1 Press Release of Penn Treaty American Corporation dated November 11, 2003.
Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 11, 2003, Penn Treaty American Corporation (the “Company”) announced its results of operations for the third quarter of 2003. The Company issued a press release, dated November 11, 2003, which is furnished as an exhibit hereto.
The press release referred to fully converted book value, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The press release included a reconciliation of fully converted book value to GAAP book value. The Company believes that the presentation and discussion of this non-GAAP number, which is consistent with past disclosure, in conjunction with disclosure of all reconciling differences, provides a better understanding of the Company’s current value in light of future items which we believe are likely to be significantly dilutive to current shareholders.
The information in the Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
