“As recently announced, we decided to cease direct marketing efforts and are moving forward with a full strategic analysis of Kemper Direct to maximize value for our shareholders,” commented Donald G. Southwell, Kemper's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Although our overall property and casualty results improved over 2011, we had a difficult second quarter, experiencing catastrophe losses totaling $36 million after-tax and increased loss trends. Accordingly, we continue to file for rate increases and take underwriting actions to improve our P&C profitability.”
