MILWAUKEE, March 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- MGIC
Investment Corporation (NYSE: MTG) today issued a February 2017 Operational Summary of the primary
mortgage insurance of its insurance subsidiaries. The summary is
also available on the company's website at http://mtg.mgic.com,
under Investor Information, Press Releases.
The information concerning new delinquency notices and cures is
compiled from reports received from loan servicers. The level of
new notice and cure activity reported in a particular month can be
influenced by, among other things, the date on which a servicer
generates its report, the accuracy of the data provided by
servicers, the number of business days in a month, transfers of
servicing between loan servicers, and whether all servicers have
provided the reports in a given month (one servicer did not report
new notices or cures for January 2017
but reported January and February
2017 notice and cure activity, on a net basis, in
February. We are not aware of any missing reports at this
time).
