Total revenues

Total revenues – Segments

in mn

LOGO

Total revenues were up 1.1% and amounted to €24.3 billion in 2Q 2007 compared to a year ago. Based on internal growth our revenues increased by 1.7%. All segments recorded positive internal growth rates on a 2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison, while the increases in our Asset Management and Banking segments were particularly strong.

 

Property-Casualty    Managed growth and stable prices led to gross premiums written of €10.0 billion in 2Q 2007 and €24.1 billion for the first six months of 2007. The acquisition of ROSNO and Progress Garant contributed to the increase in premiums. Positive growth rates were recorded on both a total and internal growth basis.

Life/Health     At €11.8 billion in 2Q 2007, our statutory premiums were down 1.5% compared to a year ago, whereas internal growth turned positive with 0.3%. With the exception of Germany and the United States, we achieved strong growth in all our life markets. However, the slowdown in the United States bottomed out in the first quarter. For the first six months of 2007, statutory premiums reached €24.1 billion, down 2.7% year-on-year.

Banking    Our Banking segment's operating revenues grew substantially to €1.9 billion in 2Q 2007 and €4.0 billion in 1H 2007, up 8.4% and 8.1% from the respective prior year periods, respectively . On an internal basis growth came to 9.3% for the second quarter.

Asset Management    We achieved net inflows to third-party assets of €20 billion in the first half of 2007. Together with positive market effects of €21 billion, third-party assets grew by 5.3% since year-end 2006, excluding foreign exchange and consolidation effects. Commensurate with the higher asset base, operating revenues grew by 9.8% on a 2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison and 6.8% on a first half comparison.

Operating profit

Operating profit – Segments

in mn

LOGO

At €3.3 billion, operating profit in 2Q 2007 was 17.7% higher than in the comparison period, continuing a long-term history of substantial year-over-year improvement of quarterly operating profit. All business segments delivered higher operating profits than a year ago. For the first six months of 2007, operating profit amounted to €6.2 billion, 12.6% higher than in the same period last year.

Property-Casualty    Operating profit grew by 2.7% to €1.9 billion in 2Q 2007 from an already high level a year ago. Despite the burden from winterstorm “Kyrill” in 1Q 2007, operating profit in the 2007 to 2006 first half comparison declined only €70 million to €3.2 billion.

Life/Health    In 2Q 2007, operating profit grew dynamically by 43.8% to €758 million with most operations contributing to this growth. In the first half of 2007, operating profit was €1.5 billion, 20.6% above the same period last year. Solid improvements in our expense and investment margins drove these developments.

 

Banking    We recorded strong operating profit growth of 68.4% and 41.2% compared to 2Q and the first half of 2006, respectively, resulting from higher revenues and lower expenses.

Asset Management    Up 9.4% to €325 million in 2Q 2007 and 6.0% to €637 million in the first half of 2007, operating profit continued to benefit from our growing asset base and tight expense management. At 59.2% and 59.6%, our cost-income ratio remained at a very competitive level.

Non-operating items

The net result of non-operating items in 2Q 2007 was minus €90 million. Although not material in total, there were significant line item movements. As expected, harvesting returned to a normal level, while in the same period last year, we had the Schering sale, with a significant realized gain. Hence, the total impact from net realized gains and impairments of investments declined by €895 million to €401 million. Interest expense on AGF bridge financing amounted to approximately €74 million in 2Q 2007, resulting in substantially higher interest expense from external debt. Restructuring charges in 2Q 2006 stemmed primarily from the announcement at that time of our restructuring plan for the Allianz Group's insurance operations in Germany.

Contrary to the developments previously described in the comparison of the second quarters of 2007 versus 2006, in the six months comparison, the overall impact from net realized gains and impairments of investments increased by €372 million to €2.4 billion. This is attributable to the locking-in of unrealized gains in 1Q 2007, after the strong performance of our equity investments and thus we have already generated a significant part of our capital gains target for 2007. The cash from these sales was, in part, used for the acquisition of the outstanding shares in AGF that Allianz SE did not already own at that time.

Net income

Net income, at €2.1 billion in 2Q 2007, was down by 6.1%, primarily as a result of higher income tax expenses, with pre-tax income exceeding €3 billion. With significantly reduced tax-exempt income, the effective tax rate of 26.8% and income tax expenses of €858 million in 2Q 2007 were considerably higher than a year ago. Primarily due to the RAS minority buy-outs completed last year and the AGF minority buy-outs this year, the minority interests declined from €356 million to €200 million.

On a six months basis, net income grew by €1.3 billion to €5.4 billion, reflecting both our strong operating profit and the substantially increased non-operating result. Our six months effective tax rate rose from 20.9% in 2006 to 23.5% in 2007.

Group Management Report

 

Risk Management

Risk management is an integral part of our business processes and supports our value-based management. As our internal risk capital model provides management with information which allows for active asset-liability management and monitoring, risk is well controlled and there are no identified risks which could in the future pose a threat to the existence of the Allianz Group.

Out of our € 1,031 billion investments and receivables €35 billion are invested in asset-backed securities. Thereof €16.3 billion are kept in the trading book of our banking segment. Only €1.7 billion or 0.16% of our investments and receivables are related to risks out of the US subprime-market. Out of these €1.7 billion, € 1.6 billion are held in the trading book of our banking segment which is carried at fair-value. The exposure is split into the following ratings: 54.8% AAA, 31.0% AA, 12.7% A and 1.0% BBB. Only 0.5% are out of BB ratings.

The information contained in the risk report in our 2006 Annual Report is still valid.

Events After the Balance Sheet Date

See Note 41 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Opportunities

As presented in our 2006 Annual Report, we remain confident that the business prospects for financial service providers remain positive against the background of continuous dynamic global economic development.

Outlook

Our outlook remains unchanged; we are on track to achieve our targets.

In the years 2007 to 2009, we expect average annual consolidated operating profit growth of 10% from the 2006 level, adjusted for the particularly favorable natural catastrophe trend in 2006. Within the same time period, we are striving to maintain a strong combined ratio of less than 94% on average in our Property-Casualty segment. In Life/Health we aim to achieve an average new business margin1) greater than 3%. We also target an average return on risk-adjusted capital in our Banking segment of above 15%. For our Asset Management segment, we are targeting average annual growth of third-party assets under management of 10%, excluding foreign currency conversion effects.

We expect net income of around €8 billion for the full year 2007.

As always, natural catastrophes and adverse developments in the capital markets, as well as the factors stated below in our cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements, may severely impact our results of operations.


 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

The statements contained herein may include statements of future expectations and other forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. In addition to statements which are forward-looking by reason of context, the words “may”, “will”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential”, or “continue” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

Actual results, performance or events may differ materially from those in such statements due to, without limitation, (i) general economic conditions, including in particular economic conditions in the Allianz Group’s core business and core markets, (ii) performance of financial markets, including emerging markets, (iii) the frequency and severity of insured loss events, (iv) mortality

and morbidity levels and trends, (v) persistency levels, (vi) the extent of credit defaults, (vii) interest rate levels, (viii) currency exchange rates including the Euro/U.S. Dollar exchange rate, (ix) changing levels of competition, (x) changes in laws and regulations, including monetary convergence and the European Monetary Union, (xi) changes in the policies of central banks and/or foreign governments, (xii) the impact of acquisitions, including related integration issues, (xiii) reorganization measures, and (xiv) general competitive factors, in each case on a local, regional, national and/or global basis. Many of these factors may be more likely to occur, or more pronounced, as a result of terrorist activities and their consequences.

The matters discussed herein may also be affected by risks and uncertainties described from time to time in Allianz SE’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

At €9,982 million in 2Q 2007, gross premiums written were up 3.1% from a year ago. Based on internal growth, the increase amounted to 1.8%. We continued targeting risk adequate prices. Overall, we recorded a price effect on gross premiums written of minus 0.5% and a volume effect of plus 2.3%.

Operations with decreased or flat gross premiums written included Allianz Sach in Germany, our Italian entities and Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty.

At Allianz Sach and in Italy, tariff increases in certain lines of business were offset by unfavorable developments in other business lines, leading to stable gross premiums written at Allianz Sach of €1,696 million and slightly lower revenues in Italy of €1,340 million.

Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty recorded an aggregate decline of gross premiums written of 9.3% as we remained diligent in our risk selection. Furthermore, price decreases in the aviation business, in the property business in the United Kingdom, and in the German marine business impacted revenue growth.

At the same time, our growth markets, our credit insurance business and Spain recorded solid increases. In aggregate, “New Europe” – our growth markets within Central and Eastern Europe – together with Asia-Pacific and South America accounted for 13.3% of our Property-Casualty segment's gross premiums written in 2Q 2007, compared to 10.4% a year earlier.

Premium volume in New Europe benefited from organic growth and the first time consolidation of ROSNO and Progress Garant in Russia.

Premium growth at our credit insurer Euler Hermes was driven by increased business volume and higher retention rates. Total revenues went up €48 million to €446 million.

In Spain, gross premiums written increased by €38 million to €502 million. Here, we saw growth across all business lines.

 

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

In the 2007 to 2006 first half comparison, our gross premiums written increased by 1.1% to €24,093 million. In most of our markets, the developments were consistent with the 2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison. Only our operations at Fireman's Fund in the United States recorded a decline, mainly as a result of the unfavorable exchange rate development of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro. Adjusted for this effect internal growth was 0.6%.

Operating profit

Operating profit

in mn

LOGO

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Operating profit remained strong at €1,894 million in 2Q 2007, up 2.7% from an already high profit level a year ago. This was primarily the result of increased investment income, reflecting higher dividend payments, higher yields on debt investments and positive net inflows to our asset base.

The top contributors to operating profit were Germany at €467 million, Italy at €264 million, the United States at €189 million, France at €163 million and our credit insurance business of Euler Hermes at €161 million.

We continued to benefit from our strong underwriting profitability and our initiatives to improve claims management. The accident year loss ratio was down 20 basis points to 69.4%. At 4.5%, the positive net development in prior years’ loss reserves was unchanged. The impact from natural catastrophes remained at a similar magnitude of 1.1% in 2Q 2007, compared to 1.2% a year ago, while we recorded a lower overall claims frequency1)

and an almost stable net claims severity. Commensurate with the stable positive net development in prior years' loss reserves, our calendar year loss ratio also decreased by 20 basis points to 64.9%.

With our expense ratio up 1.2 percentage points to 28.0%, our combined ratio increased from 91.9% to 92.9%.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

On a six months basis, operating profit amounted to €3,161 million, only down 2.2%, despite significantly higher net losses from natural catastrophes of €458 million, mainly related to winterstorm “Kyrill” in Europe in 1Q 2007. While strong, our combined ratio for the first six months of 2007 rose to 94.8%, after 93.3% in the same period last year, reflecting the increased impact from natural catastrophes. Consistent with the 2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison, current investment income grew mainly due to a strong dividend season.

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

The net gain from non-operating items decreased substantially by €260 million to €180 million. This development resulted mainly from lower realized gains from investments which amounted to €216 million, down €662 million from a year earlier largely as a result of the sale of our participation in Schering AG at that time. Conversely, no major single sales transaction was recorded in 2Q 2007. Similarly, restructuring charges were negligible in 2Q 2007, while in the prior year period expenses of €354 million were incurred, primarily in connection with the reorganization of our German insurance activities.

 

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

In contrast to the 2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison, on a six months basis, the net gain from non-operating items was down only slightly. In addition to the developments previously described, this resulted predominantly from higher net realized gains from investments in 1Q 2007 versus 1Q 2006.

Net income

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Net income was down by €202 million to €1,380 million, predominantly reflecting the lower aggregate gain from non-operating items.

Income tax expenses, at €578 million in 2Q 2007, rose by €112 million. Mainly as a result of significantly higher tax-exempted realized gains in 2Q 2006 as compared to 2Q 2007, our effective tax rate increased from 20.4% to 27.9%

Minority interests in earnings declined from €237 million to €116 million mainly due to the minority buy-outs at RAS and AGF.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

At €2,560 million for the first half of 2007, net income decreased by 4.5%. Both lower operating profit and lower non-operating income contributed to this development. Furthermore, income tax expenses increased by €125 million for the reasons already mentioned driving the effective tax rate up to 27.8% from 24.2%.

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Our statutory premiums decreased by 1.5% to €11,758 million in 2Q 2007. On an internal basis, we grew slightly by 0.3%. Whereas in most of our life insurance markets we recorded positive developments, statutory premium volumes declined in the United States and in Germany by 18.5% and 9.7%, respectively. On an internal growth basis, the decrease within the United States came to 12.6%.

Before elimination of transactions between Allianz Group companies in different geographic regions and different segments.

The total revenue volume from New Europe and Asia-Pacific accounted for 12.0% of our Life/Health segment's statutory premiums in 2Q 2007, compared to 10.1% in the same period last year.

The highest absolute growth was achieved in Italy, where revenues grew by €210 million despite poor overall market performance, principally because sales through our bancassurance channel at RAS Group picked up and

we successfully launched three index-linked single premium products.

Within France, the increase in premiums by €101 million was largely brought about by an increase in group life business. In contrast to previous quarters, the highest proportion of new business originated from proprietary sales channels.

Total revenues within Asia-Pacific were up €155 million, mainly as we recorded strong sales of single premium unit-linked products sold foremost through our bank channels. In China, we obtained sales licenses for additional provinces, that allowed us to grow via the expansion of our sales network. Furthermore, we benefited from our strategic partnership with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited (ICBC).

Statutory premium volume from New Europe rose by €42 million to €214 million, mainly driven by our operations in Slovakia where we recorded strong sales of single premium products through the agent network.

These positive developments did not fully compensate for the declines in particular in the United States and Germany.

In the United States, the changed market regulations affecting the sale of indexed annuity products are still visible in the statutory premium development. On a 2007 to 2006 quarter comparison statutory premiums decreased by €408 million. Additionally, business was negatively affected by the weakening of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro. On a local currency basis, the decline amounted to USD 348 million. However, we recorded a significant slowdown in the deterioration and statutory premium volume picked up growth compared to 1Q 2007, as the launch of new products and the focusing on key distribution channels showed first signs of success.

In a weak market environment, premiums from our German life business declined due to higher market interest rates which made some of our short term savings products relatively less attractive. Furthermore, we saw a shift from single premium business towards business with recurring premiums.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Statutory premiums declined by 2.7% to €24,084 million. In most of our markets, we recorded developments consistent with those previously described. Based on internal growth, our statutory premiums were down 0.9%.

 

Operating profit

Operating profit

in mn

LOGO

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Operating profit grew dynamically by 43.8% to €758 million, resulting mostly from improved expense margins and investment result. Our expense margin benefited from – among other factors – increased fee and commission income on unit linked and variable annuity business, and our investment income grew mainly due to our higher asset base.

Interest and similar income was up as interest payments on debt securities and dividend payments on equity securities both grew. Conversely, due to significantly reduced equity harvesting in 2Q 2007, net realized gains dropped. In the prior year period, we recorded an exceptionally high level of realized capital gains, while this year, no major single transaction was executed. The considerably increased net loss from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income stemmed largely from freestanding derivatives in connection with our German life business.

Changes in reserves for insurance and investment contracts (net) declined to €2,211 million from €2,950 million, predominantly due to lower net realized capital gains.

The markets which made the highest absolute contribution to operating profit in 2Q 2007 were France at €227 million, our German life operations at €141 million, Italy at €102 million and the United States at €88 million.

Allianz Group Interim Report Second Quarter and First Half of 2007

 

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Operating profit was up €258 million to €1,508 million. The various line item developments in the 2007 to 2006 first half comparison were largely consistent with the second quarter comparison.

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Non-operating items improved to an aggregate gain of €15 million, coming from an aggregate loss of €17 million, as no restructuring charges were recorded in 2Q 2007.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Significantly lower net realized gains not to be shared with policyholders in the United States led to a decreased aggregate half-year non-operating result in 2007 of €118 million, compared to €141 million last year.

 

Net income

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Net income increased by €151 million to €479 million, primarily driven by our increased operating profit.

Our effective tax rate rose from 17.6% to 30.3% as a significantly higher tax-exempt income was recorded in 2Q 2006.

Due to the minority buy-outs at RAS and AGF, minority interests in earnings decreased by €32 million to €60 million.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Net income for the first six months of 2007 amounted to €1,032 million, up by €170 million from the prior year level. Consistent with the 2007 to 2006 first quarter comparison, this development was primarily driven by our operating profit. Income tax expenses increased by €126 million to €435 million, driving up our effective tax rate by 4.6 percentage points to 26.8%. As in the second quarter comparison, a lower impact from tax-exempt income was the main reason behind this development.

Earnings Summary

The results of operations of our Banking segment are almost exclusively represented by Dresdner Bank, accounting for 96.0% of our total Banking segment’s operating revenues in 1H 2007 (1H 2006: 96.1%). Accordingly, the discussion of our Banking segment’s results of operations relates solely to the operations of Dresdner Bank.

We have restated the prior year presentation of revenues and operating profit stemming from trades in own shares1). From 2007 onwards, these results are eliminated on Dresdner Bank level, whereas in 2006 they were adjusted on segment level only.

Operating revenues

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Dresdner Bank’s operating revenues at €1,770 million, up 8.7% compared to a year ago, continued the ongoing trend of exceeding prior year level.

Net interest income was €701 million, up 11.1%, mainly due to a significant increase in our structured transaction business and the favorable development of margins and volumes in our deposit business, which was partially offset by a slight margin-driven decline in the commercial loan business.

Net fee and commission income increased by €38 million to €718 million, benefiting from ongoing strong certificates business.

 

Trading income (net) increased by 11.7% to €335 million. The investment bank entered into various underlying positions which are economically hedged with own shares. The increase of the trading result represents the accounting treatment required under IFRS which results in this case in a one-sided effect stemming from the elimination of the economic hedge in own shares. Trading income (net) from our operating divisions declined. In expectation of the current development, we positioned ourselves on the conservative side and forewent upside potential, resulting in reduced trading volumes.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Operating revenues increased by 8.0% to €3,793 million. The main contributor was net interest income at €1,601 million which grew by 32.4%.

Group Management Report

 

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

At €427 million, up 79.4% from a year ago, operating profit again grew substantially, notwithstanding higher loan loss provisions. The increase in revenues previously described and declining operating expenses contributed to this positive development. As a result, our cost-income ratio dropped by 12.7 percentage points to 72.4%.

Further efficiency gains and a continuous adherence to cost discipline continued to pay off. Operating expenses developed favorably, down 7.5% to €1,281 million. Non-personnel expenses accounted for €476 million, down 3.8% as a result of further cost reductions across almost all cost categories with the most significant reduction in fees for external services. Personnel expenses at €801 million dropped by 10.1%.

Loan loss provisions recorded net additions of €62 million. This increase was composed of gross additions of €140 million versus €106 million in 2Q 2006 and lower gross releases and recoveries of €78 million compared to €101 million a year ago.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

We recorded a strong operating profit of €1,104 million, up 43.9% compared to a year earlier. Increased operating revenues and further decreasing operating expenses led to a significant decrease of our cost-income ratio to 69.4% down 9.6% percentage points.

The positive development of our operating profit was achieved despite net loan loss provisions turning to a net expense, as expected, and on a relatively low level in 1H 2007. Our coverage ratio amounted to 56.5% compared to 58.5% a year ago.

 

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Non-operating items increased by €18 million to €30 million, made up almost exclusively of realized gains which developed in a similar magnitude.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

With a decline of 64.1% to €145 million, the impact from non-operating items was materially lower than in the prior year period. Realized gains in 1H 2006 included the sale of Dresdner Bank's remaining shareholdings in Munich Re to Allianz SE (formerly Allianz AG) and the disposal of our remaining participation in Eurohypo AG.

Net income

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Net income at €395 million more than doubled compared to a year earlier. In addition to a higher income before taxes this was due to higher tax exempt income. Accordingly, our effective tax rate dropped to only 9.6% from 32.0% a year earlier.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Net income increased by 24.8% to €1,007 million due to significant tax-exempt income in 1H 2007. The high increase of operating profit was partially offset by the decline of non-operating items, leaving income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings €78 million higher, at €1,249 million.

1) 

Our reporting by division reflects the organizational changes within Dresdner Bank effective starting with 1Q 2007, resulting in two operating divisions, Private & Corporate Clients (“PCC”) and Investment Banking (“IB”). PCC combines all banking activities formerly provided by the Personal Banking and Private & Business Banking (including Private Wealth Management) divisions as well as our activities with medium-sized business clients from our former Corporate Banking division. IB, with Global Banking and Capital Markets, unites the activities formerly provided by the Dresdner Kleinwort (formerly Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein) division and the remaining activities of the former Corporate Banking division. Prior year balances have been adjusted accordingly to reflect these reorganization measures and allow for comparability across periods.

2) 

The Corporate Other division contains income and expense items that are not assigned to Dresdner Bank’s operating divisions. These items include, in particular, impacts from the accounting treatment for derivative financial instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting as well as provisioning requirements for country and general risks. For the three and six months, the impact from the accounting treatment for derivative financial instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting on Corporate Other’s operating revenues amounted to 4 mn and (16) mn respectively (2006: 9 mn and (14) mn respectively).

Third-Party Assets Under Management of the Allianz Group

With third-party assets of €789 billion as of June 30, 2007 we recorded a 3.3% increase compared to December 31, 2006. In the first half of 2007, net inflows to third-party assets of €20 billion were achieved, primarily in the United States, France and Asia-Pacific. Of the total net inflows, our fixed income business made up for € 18 billion and our equity business for €2 billion. The strong fixed income net inflows were achieved despite a challenging market environment, in particular rising interest rates and flattening yield curves across regions.

Market-related appreciation was €21 billion. The majority of both the fixed income and equity assets we manage outperformed their respective benchmarks.

Net inflows and positive market effects were partly offset by negative currency translation effects of €14 billion, resulting primarily from a weaker U.S. Dollar versus the Euro. Overall, on a Euro-basis, our third-party assets increased by €25 billion1) to €789 billion as of June 30, 2007, compared to €764 billion as of December 31, 2006.

We operate our third-party asset management business primarily through Allianz Global Investors (“AGI”). As of June 30, 2007, AGI managed approximately 94.7% (December 31, 2006: 94.6%) of the Allianz Group’s third-party assets. The remaining third-party assets are managed by Dresdner Bank (approximately 2.6% and 2.7% as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively) and other Allianz Group subsidiaries (approximately 2.7% as of both, June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006).

Earnings Summary

The results of operations of our Asset Management segment are almost exclusively represented by AGI, accounting for 97.6% and 96.6% of our total Asset Management segment’s operating revenues and operating profit, respectively, in 2Q 2007 (2Q 2006: 98.8% and 99.3%, respectively). Accordingly, the discussion of our Asset Management segment’s results of operations relates solely to the operations of AGI.

Operating revenues

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

At €778 million, operating revenues improved by 8.5%; a substantial increase given unfavorable currency effects such as the depreciation of the U.S. Dollar versus the Euro. At constant exchange rates, operating revenues

would have been up by 14.2%. Management fees increased alongside the growing asset base as previously described. Income from financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through income (net) was up €17 million compared to a year ago; primarily stemming from higher mark-to-market valuation of seed money in the United States. Performance fees also developed favorably, predominantly as a result of our positive business development in Europe.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Operating revenues at €1,536 million were up 5.8% . The internal growth rate amounted to 12.0%. Asset-based management fees surpassed the result of last year's period, reflecting the growth of our third-party asset base at higher revenue margins. To a large extent driven by our business located in the United States, performance fees rose by 40.0% to €35 million. Reduced loading and exit fees reflect the development of mutual fund sales.

Operating profit

Operating profit

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Operating profit was €314 million; an increase of 6.4%. Adjusted for currency translation effects, operating profit would have exceeded the 2Q 2006 level by 12.6%. This increase was predominantly due to the favorable business development in the United States.

Administrative expenses, excluding acquisition-related expenses, rose by 10.0% to €464 million; €192 million of which were compensation related, an increase compared to €161 million a year earlier. Non-compensation related expenses were at €272 million versus €261 million in 2Q 2006. This development was in line with our ongoing business expansion and investments in future growth.

Our cost-income ratio slightly increased by 0.7% percentage points to 59.6%.

Group Management Report

 

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

In 1H 2007 operating profit was up 3.9%, amounting to €618 million; despite the burden of unfavorable currency effects. Excluding these effects operating profit would have surpassed last year's result by 10.5%.

Due to continuous investment in future growth and further business expansion, administrative expenses, excluding acquisition-related expenses, were up €61 million to €918 million. Thereof, €384 million were compensation-related expenses and €534 million non compensation-related expenses.

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Acquisition-related expenses dropped by €49 million to €83 million. This decline was mainly driven by a lower number of outstanding PIMCO LLC Class B Units (or “Class B Units”). The Allianz Group had acquired 37,760 of the 150,000 PIMCO LLC Class B Units originally outstanding, as of June 30, 2007, compared to 11,721 as of June 30, 2006.

 

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

At €205 million, acquisition-related expenses were down by €65 million. A lower number of outstanding Class B Units as previously described contributed most to this development.

Net income

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Net income of €126 million significantly exceeded the 2Q 2006 result by 40.0%. Excluding effects of exchange rate movements, the internal growth rate would have been 50.1%.

With income tax expenses at €100 million versus €62 million a year ago our effective tax rate was 43.1% (2Q 2006: 38.3%).

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Net income grew significantly by 23.7% to €219 million, despite unfavorable currency effects. At constant exchange rates net income would have surpassed prior year's period by 32.0%

Holding Function

Operating profit

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

The operating loss decreased by €51 million to €46 million benefiting from higher current investment income and lower investment expenses. These positive effects were partly offset by increased administrative expenses driven by higher performance-based remuneration.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

The operating loss was €178 million, down €107 million from a year ago. An increase in interest and similar income stemming from a higher asset base with at the same time lower investment expenses, more than compensated for the development of administrative expenses. These went up, primarily driven by higher performance-based remuneration expenses.

 

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Total non-operating items declined by €230 million to an aggregate loss of €61 million. Lower realized gains and losses as well as higher interest expenses from external debt, which reflect predominantly the interest expenses of €74 million for the bridge financing in connection with the acquisition of the AGF shares that Allianz did not already own, turned the non-operating result negative. Acquisition-related expenses of €52 million for the redemption of stock-based compensation plans from AGF had an additional impact on the non-operating result.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Due to exceptionally high realized gains in the first quarter, non-operating items amounted to an aggregate gain of €451 million, up €499 million on the prior year period. Furthermore, the effects described above impacted the development in the first half of 2007.

Private Equity

Operating profit

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Operating profit increased by €13 million to €36 million. Higher invested capital and lending to shareholders had a positive impact on interest and similar income, which accounted for most of the rise.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

Compared to the previous year, operating profit more than doubled to €67 million. Besides the higher interest and similar income lower administrative expenses contributed to this development.

 

Non-operating items

2007 to 2006 second quarter comparison

Aggregate non-operating items showed a negative result of €13 million compared to a positive result of €15 million a year ago. Gains from the disposal of an interest swap and capital gains from the disposal of an investment that were realized in the prior year period were not repeated. Additionally, depreciation of €8 million contributed to this development.

2007 to 2006 first half comparison

The improvement in the operating profit was offset by negative non-operating items of a similar magnitude. The causes did not change materially from that in 2Q.

Includes foreign currency translation adjustments.

As of June 30, 2007, shareholders' equity was €48.5 billion, reflecting a decrease of 4.0% compared to year-end 2006. Our strong net income of €5.4 billion for the first half of 2007 could not fully compensate for various decreasing effects. The combined negative effect of €2.8 billion from transactions between equity holders resulted mainly from the minority buy-outs of AGF, Allianz Leben and in Taiwan. Thereof, the AGF transaction was the most significant with a net impact of minus €2.7 billion. Additionally, shareholders' equity was impacted by the dividend payment for fiscal year 2006 of €1.6 billion and increased unrealized losses of €0.6 billion resulting from the recent rise in interest rates.

 

Total Assets and Total Liabilities

Total assets and total liabilities increased by €57.9 billion and €63.1 billion, respectively. In the following sections we analyze important developments within the balance sheets of our Life/Health, Property-Casualty and Banking segments. Relative to the Allianz Group’s total assets and total liabilities, we consider the total assets and total liabilities from our Asset Management segment as immaterial and have, accordingly, excluded these assets and liabilities from the following discussion. Our Asset Management segment’s results of operations stem primarily from its business with third-party assets. Please see pages 24 and 25 for further information on the development of our third-party assets.

As of June 30, 2007, reserves for insurance and investment contracts from the Life/Health segment amounted to €281.3 billion, up €2.5 billion from December 31, 2006. This development primarily stemmed from higher aggregate policy reserves for universal-life type insurance contracts. Compared to December 31, 2006, financial assets and liabilities for unit-linked contracts increased by 8.4% to €67.1 billion, reflecting our positive sales performance with regards to unit-linked insurance and investment contracts as well as market-related appreciation of our assets.

Reconciliation of Consolidated Operating Profit and Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interests in Earnings

The previous analysis is based on our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with those statements. The Allianz Group uses operating profit to evaluate the performance of its business segments and the Group as a whole. The Allianz Group considers the presentation of operating profit to be useful and meaningful to investors because it enhances the understanding of the Allianz Group’s underlying operating performance and the comparability of its operating performance over time. Operating profit highlights the portion of income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings attributable to the on-going core operations of the Allianz Group. To better understand the on-going operations of the business, we exclude the effects of acquisition-related expenses and the amortization of intangible assets, as these relate to business

combinations; and we exclude interest expense from external debt and income from financial assets and liabilities held for trading (relating to exchangeables on external debt) as these relate to our capital structure.

We believe that trends in the underlying profitability of our business can be more clearly identified without the fluctuating effects of the realized capital gains and losses or impairments of investment securities, as these are largely dependent on market cycles or issuer-specific events over which we have little or no control, and can and do vary, sometimes materially, across periods. Further, the timing of sales that would result in such gains or losses is largely at our discretion. Due to the non-recurring nature of restructuring charges we also exclude them in order to avoid distortions in the operating results of the underlying business.

Operating profit should be viewed as complementary to, and not a substitute for, income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings or net income as determined in accordance with IFRS.


 

The following table reconciles operating profit on a consolidated basis to the Allianz Group’s income before income taxes and minority interests in earnings.

Composition of Total Revenue Growth

 

We further believe that an understanding of our total revenue performance is enhanced when the effects of foreign currency translation as well as acquisitions and disposals (or “changes in scope of consolidation”) are excluded. Accordingly, in addition to presenting “nominal growth”, we also present “internal growth”,

which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation and changes in scope of consolidation. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of nominal total revenue growth to internal total revenue growth for each of our segments and the Allianz Group as a whole for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1    Basis of presentation

The consolidated interim financial statements of the Allianz Group have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as published by the International Accounting Standard Board (“IASB”) and as endorsed by the European Union (“EU”).

The consolidated interim financial statements comply with all new or amended IFRSs, where application is compulsory for the first time for periods beginning on January 1, 2007. For existing and unchanged IFRSs the accounting policies for recognition, measurement, consolidation and presentation applied in the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies, that have been applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006.

IFRS does not provide specific guidance concerning all aspects of the recognition and measurement of insurance and reinsurance contracts. Therefore, as envisioned in IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, the provisions embodied under

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been applied to those aspects where specific guidance is not provided by IFRS 4, Insurance Contracts.

IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, is applicable for annual periods beginning January 1, 2007. IFRS 7 requires extended disclosures about the significance of financial instruments and the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments. Simultaneously with the development of IFRS 7, the IASB amended IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, to add disclosures about capital management and capital requirements. The new requirements of IFRS 7 and IAS 1 will be of significance for the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in millions of Euro (€ mn).

2    Changes in the presentation of the consolidated financial statements

Reclassifications

Beginning with the third quarter of 2006, income from fully consolidated private equity investments and expenses from fully consolidated private equity investments have been included as separate line items in the consolidated income statements. Accordingly, the prior period income statement has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.


 

A summary of the impact of these changes on the consolidated income statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 is as follows:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

In 2006 Allianz issued a €800 mn 5.375% Perpetual Subordinated Bond. The bond requires Allianz, in specified circumstances (which relate to adverse changes in the financial condition of Allianz), either to defer interest otherwise payable or to settle such interest with funds raised through the issue of Allianz shares or certain other types of securities. Any interest that is so deferred can only be settled upon the occurrence of certain events and only with funds raised through the issue of such shares or other securities.

It is the intention of Allianz that in the unlikely event of a mandatory deferral of interest in respect of the above instrument (other than in circumstances where interest or distributions on all of its subordinated securities are deferred) to use its best endeavours to arrange for the issue or sale of Allianz shares or such other securities so as to raise cash to enable it to settle interest no later than 30 days after its original due date for payment.

Investors should note that Allianz is not obligated, under any circumstances, to issue new shares or sell treasury shares and that Allianz may be prevented by compulsory provisions of German stock corporation law or otherwise from issuing new shares or selling treasury shares.

37    Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per

share reflects the effect of dilutive securities. Dilutive securities include participation certificates issued by Allianz SE which can potentially be converted to Allianz shares, warrants issued by Allianz SE, share-based compensation plans, and derivatives on own shares.

Allianz Group Interim Report Second Quarter and First Half of 2007

 

Standard & Poor’s raised its rating for Allianz SE to “AA”

On July 11, 2007, Standard & Poor’s (S&P) raised its long-term counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings on Allianz SE and various core entities from “AA-” to “AA”. This consequentially led to a raise of ratings on various strategically important insurance subsidiaries of Allianz from “A+” to “AA-”. The rating agency affirmed its “A-1+” short-term ratings on Allianz SE and various core operating subsidiaries. The outlook for all Allianz entities remains stable.

Corporate Tax Reform 2008

In July 2007 the Bill on the 2008 Corporate Tax Reform has been passed by the upper house of the German parliament which, among other, will lead to a reduction of

income tax rates for German corporations from January 1, 2008. Consequently, from third quarter 2007 onwards, the Allianz Group will calculate its deferred taxes in Germany applying an accordingly reduced tax rate. Based on preliminary calculations the Allianz Group expects no material impact from the application of the reduced tax rate on its deferred tax balances.

European Floods and Storms

As a result of the severe flooding in the United Kingdom during late June and July 2007, the Allianz Group estimates further claims losses of approximately €135 mn. In addition, claims from July storms in Germany are expected to result in losses of approximately €55 mn, net of reinsurance.

Allianz Group Interim Report Second Quarter and First Half of 2007

 

Review report

To Allianz SE, Munich

We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements - comprising the balance sheet, income statement, condensed cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and selected explanatory notes - and the interim group management report of Allianz SE, Munich for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2007 which are part of the half year financial reports according to § 37 w WpHG [„Wertpapierhandelsgesetz“: „German Securities Trading Act“]. The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and of the interim group management report which has been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to issue a review report on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We performed our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and conduct the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements

have not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material aspects, in accordance with the regulations of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor’s report.

Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the regulations of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports.
