Triad Guaranty Inc. Reports Second Quarter Loss as Reported Defaults and
Foreclosures Continue to Rise

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Triad Guaranty Inc.
(Nasdaq: TGIC) today reported a net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2008
of $198.8 million compared with net income of $12.0 million for the same
quarter in 2007.  The loss per share was $13.36 for the second quarter of 2008
compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.80 for the second quarter of
2007.  The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $348.8 million
compared to net income of $29.3 million for the same period in 2007.  The loss
per share was $23.45 for the first six months of 2008 compared to diluted
earnings per share of $1.96 for the same period last year.
William T. Ratliff, III, Chairman and CEO, said, "As I take on this
additional leadership role, Triad and the entire mortgage industry are facing
significant challenges.  During the second quarter we announced that Triad was
going into run-off and we stopped issuing commitments for new mortgage
insurance coverage effective July 15, 2008.  Concurrent with the move to
run-off, we took actions to reduce our workforce by approximately 45%.  Our
focus now is on the efficient and effective servicing of our insured
portfolio, particularly around loss mitigation.  We intend to continue to
improve our processes in this area by examining and refining all aspects of
our default management and claims process, including assessing servicer
effectiveness, pursuing acquisitions of properties in foreclosure when
appropriate and enhancing our investigations of potential fraud in the
mortgage commitment process, particularly for recent policy years."
    Mr. Ratliff continued, "The size of our second quarter loss reflects the
depth and breadth of the collapse of the housing and mortgage markets.  The
continued growth in the number of defaults and foreclosures during the quarter
required a significant increase in reserves.  The distressed markets of
California, Florida, Arizona and Nevada continue to be adversely impacted by
declining home prices, and reserves for defaults in these states comprised
approximately 68% of the increase in our reserves for the quarter."
    To understand and assess the future performance of Triad requires
information about the risk in our insured portfolio and performance to date.
In our continuing effort to provide meaningful information, we have updated
the supplemental information for the 2008 second quarter results related to
product differentiation, risk structures, additional portfolio characteristics
and performance on our web site at www.triadguaranty.com.  The supplemental
information can be found under "Investors" and then under "Webcasts and
Presentations" by the title "Supplemental Information - Second Quarter 2008".
