Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Participants and Administrator of

Radian Group Inc. Savings Incentive Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Radian Group Inc. Savings Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) at December 31, 2007, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The financial statements of the Plan as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 were audited by other auditors whose report dated June 29, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) and Schedule of Reportable Transactions are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Trustees and Participants

in the Radian Group Inc.

Savings Incentive Plan

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania:

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Radian Group Inc. Savings Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2006. This financial statement is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

RADIAN GROUP INC. SAVINGS INCENTIVE PLAN

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. Plan Description

The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan documents for a complete description of the Plan.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan designed to allow eligible employees of Radian Group Inc. and its participating subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) to save for their retirement. Effective January 1, 2007, each eligible employee may participate in the Plan as of his or her date of hire. Before January 1, 2007, eligible employees could participate in the Plan only upon completion of 90 days of effective service.

Savings under the Plan are achieved through a program of salary deferrals in which a participant’s salary is reduced by the amount elected to be saved by the participant on a pre-tax basis. Each year, participants are entitled to contribute between 1% and 25% of their compensation to the Plan, up to the limit set by the Plan’s administrator (not to exceed the indexed limitations contained in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”)). These limits were $15,500 for 2007 and $15,000 for 2006. In addition, effective January 1, 2007, eligible employees hired on or after this date are automatically enrolled in the Plan (subject to their right not to participate or to participate at a different contribution level) at a beginning contribution rate of 3% of compensation.

The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).

The Company pays all expenses for administering the Plan. Loan origination fees are paid by borrowing participants and are deducted from loan proceeds. An annual loan administration fee is deducted from each borrowing participant’s account. Brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in connection with participant-directed purchases and sales of securities are included as a reduction of the amount earned on each fund.

B. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting and Use of Estimates

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the changes therein during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

Participants in the Plan can invest in a variety of funds including money market funds, mutual funds, the Radian Group Inc. Common Stock Fund (the “Radian Common Stock Fund”) and targeted retirement funds.

Shares of mutual funds are valued at quoted market prices based on the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Investments in the Radian Common Stock Fund, which includes Radian common stock and money market accounts, are valued at quoted market prices. For common collective trusts, the underlying assets include traditional investment contracts issued by insurance companies and banks, alternative contracts and short-term investments, and are valued by discounting the related cash flows on yields of similar instruments with comparable duration. The common collective trusts, such as the Retirement Savings Trust, with underlying investments in investment contracts are valued at the fair market value of the underlying investments and then adjusted to contract value. Participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest is recorded when earned. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded as of the trade date.

As described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position, (the “FSP”) AAG INV-1 and SOP 94-4-1, “Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Contracts Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans,” investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attributable for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. As required by the FSP, the statements of net assets available for benefits presents investment contracts at fair value as well as an additional line item showing an adjustment of fully benefit–responsive contracts from fair value to contract value. The statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented on a contract value basis and was not affected by the adoption of the FSP.

Adoption of new Accounting Guidance

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). This standard defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 on the Plan’s financial statements.

C. Administration/Termination of the Plan

Effective January 1, 2007, the executive officer in charge of human resources of the Company began administering the Plan. Before January 1, 2007, the Plan was administered by a Benefits Administration Committee (the “Committee”). The plan administrator has fiduciary responsibility for the general operation of the Plan and is indemnified by the Company.

Although the Company has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, all benefits would become fully vested and non-forfeitable and the net assets of the Plan would be allocated as required by the Plan and in accordance with ERISA.

D. Participant Accounts

Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions, Company matching, discretionary and transition credit contributions, and Plan earnings. Individual accounts are likewise charged with withdrawals, fees and an allocation of Plan losses. A participant’s benefit under the Plan is derived solely from the participant’s vested account.

Effective January 1, 2007, the Plan permits the Company to make discretionary contributions to the Plan in amounts determined annually by the Company’s board of directors. Any such contribution may be made in a fixed dollar amount or may be made as a percentage of the Company’s net profits, percentage of a participant’s compensation, or any other method determined by the board. Any such contributions are allocated to the discretionary contribution account of each eligible Plan participant as a uniform flat dollar amount. In January 2008, for the year December 31, 2007, the Company made a discretionary contribution to the Plan in the amount of $1,000 per eligible participant ($850,000 in total). The discretionary contribution for each participant was allocated pro rata among the participant’s current investment options.

Also effective January 1, 2007, certain active participants in the Radian Group Inc. Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) became entitled to receive yearly cash “transition credits” (initially for up to five years, if employed by the Company during this time) under the Plan equal to a fixed percentage of their eligible compensation, calculated based on a formula that takes into account their age and years of completed vesting service as of January 1, 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2007, transition credits made to the Plan in 2008 totaled $875,945. The transition credit contribution for each eligible participant was allocated pro rata among the participant’s current investment options.

The Company terminated its Pension Plan in June 2007. Participants currently entitled to receive retirement benefits under the Pension Plan may elect to transfer that benefit into the Plan. See Note T below.

Participants currently entitled to receive retirement benefits from another qualified retirement plan may elect to transfer that benefit into a rollover contribution amount under the Plan.

All amounts invested in the Plan are considered participant-directed investments other than the Company’s matching contributions. Matching contributions, which may be made in Radian common stock or cash, are invested in the Radian Common Stock Fund and are considered non-participant directed investments. See Note E below. The discretionary contribution and the transition credits for the year ended December 31, 2007 were considered participant-directed because they were allocated pro rata among the directed investments for each participant.

E. Matching Contributions

The Company makes a “matching contribution” with respect to the salary reduction contributions of each participant, up to 6% of a participant’s annual eligible compensation. Effective January 1, 2007, matching contributions are made on a quarterly basis in cash or Radian common stock equal to 100% of each participant’s contributions during such period (subject to the 6% limitation discussed above). Before January 1, 2007, matching contributions were made on an annual basis in cash or Radian common stock equal to $0.25 for every dollar a participant contributed to the Plan during the year (subject to the 6% limitation discussed above). In addition, after the close of any year before January 1, 2007, the Company could, at its sole discretion, make a supplemental matching contribution up to $0.75 for every dollar a participant contributed to the Plan during the year (subject to the 6% limitation discussed above). For the year ended December 31, 2006, Radian made a supplemental matching contribution of $0.75 in Radian common stock for every eligible dollar a participant contributed to the Plan during the year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

 

F. Forfeited Accounts

Effective January 1, 2007, each participant became 100% vested in (1) all matching contributions made on or after January 1, 2007 and (2) all matching contributions made before January 1, 2007, if the participant was actively employed by the Company on December 31, 2006. Before January 1, 2007, a participant forfeited his or her right to matching contributions, and any earnings thereon, that were unvested at the time of his or her termination of service. In addition, participants forfeit their right to discretionary contributions, and any earnings thereon, that are unvested at the time of their termination of service. During 2007 and 2006, forfeited non-vested amounts totaled $467,032 and $351,702, respectively. Employer matching contributions in 2007 and 2006 were reduced by these amounts. At December 31, 2007, $4,716 of forfeited funds remain in the Plan. See Note H below for information regarding the vesting of matching contributions before January 1, 2007 and the vesting of discretionary contributions.

G. Trustee

Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (“Vanguard”) serves as trustee (the “Trustee”) for the Plan. The Vanguard Group (“TVG”) also serves as the record keeper for the Plan.

H. Vesting

Participants are at all times fully vested in amounts they contribute to the Plan and amounts received as transition credits, including any earnings on such amounts. Before January 1, 2007, participants became vested in matching contributions, and any earnings thereon, based on years of vesting service. A participant generally earned one year of vesting service for each Plan year in which such participant completed at least 1,000 hours of service. The vesting schedule for matching contributions, including earnings, was as follows:

 

Years of Service

   Vested Percentage
of the Participant’s
Matching Contribution
Account

Less than 2

     0%

2 but less than 3

     20%

3 but less than 4

     40%

4 but less than 5

     60%

5 but less than 6

     80%

6 or more

   100%

Effective January 1, 2003, in connection with Radian’s acquisition of Enhance Financial Services Group Inc. (“EFSG”), the EFSG 401(k) Savings Plan was merged into the Plan. Employees of EFSG who were eligible to participate in the EFSG Plan prior to January 1, 2003, retain the vesting schedule under the EFSG Plan as follows:

 

Years of Service

   Vested Percentage
of the Participant’s
Matching Contribution
Account

Less than 1

       0%

1 but less than 2

     33%

2 but less than 3

     68%

3 or more

   100%

Newly eligible employees of EFSG follow the Plan vesting schedule.

Matching contributions made before January 1, 2007 became fully vested effective January 1, 2007 for each participant employed by the Company on December 31, 2006.

Discretionary contributions to participants generally vest upon three years of eligible service with the Company.

I. Investment Options

Employer matching contributions are made to the Radian Common Stock Fund and discretionary and transition credit contributions are allocated as determined by the Company’s board of directors. Other than with respect to these investments, each participant is

solely responsible for selecting among the investment options available under the Plan. If a participant does not select an investment option, his/her contribution will go into the default fund which is the Target Retirement Fund. Neither the Trustee nor the Company has any responsibility to select investments or to advise participants in selecting their investments. Investment allocations may be made in increments of 1% in accordance with the Plan document. Subject to applicable law, each participant assumes all risks connected with any decrease in the market value of any securities in the funds, and such funds shall be the sole source of benefits to be paid under the Plan. See Note P below.

On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a participant or his or her beneficiary, as applicable, may elect to receive the value of the participant’s vested interest in the Plan as either a lump sum benefit or as annual installments over a ten-year period. For termination of service for reasons other than death, disability or retirement, a participant may receive the value of his or her vested interest in the Plan only as a lump-sum distribution. Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution. If the amount in a participant’s account is less than $5,000, a lump-sum distribution is made following termination of the participant’s service.

Participants are permitted to make in-service withdrawals in accordance with Plan provisions. See Note M below. The minimum withdrawal permitted is the lesser of $500 or the full value of the participant’s applicable account.

In order to make a hardship withdrawal, a participant must exhaust the possibility of all other withdrawals under the Plan and all such withdrawals and nontaxable loans available under all other retirement plans maintained by the Company. Earnings credited after 1988 on salary reduction contributions are not available for hardship withdrawals, even if the contributions were made before 1988. Upon receiving a hardship distribution, a participant is generally suspended from making contributions to the Plan (and all other deferred compensation plans maintained by the Company) for six months following the year of the hardship withdrawal.

M. Loans

Participants may borrow from the vested portion of their account balances a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. Loans bear interest at the prime rate plus 1% and are repaid via payroll deductions. The maximum loan period is five years, subject to a limited exception for the purchase of a primary residence where the loan period can be up to 15 years. A participant may have only one loan outstanding at any one time. Outstanding loans are due and payable upon termination of service.

N. Federal Tax Considerations

The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by letter dated September 11, 2002 that the Plan and related trust is designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Code. Although the Company has amended the Plan since this determination, the Plan administrator believes that the Plan continues to be designed and operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the financial statements.

O. Schedule of Investments Greater than Five Percent of Net Assets (at fair value)

Investments representing five percent or more of the Plan’s net assets for 2007 and 2006 were as follows.

P. Risks and Uncertainties

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market volatility and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

Market values of the Plan’s investments may decline for a number of reasons, including changes in prevailing market and interest rates, increases in defaults, increases in voluntary prepayments for investments that are subject to prepayment risk under normal market conditions, and widening of credit spreads.

In April 2008, a purported class action lawsuit was filed against Radian Group Inc., the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Company’s board of directors and individual defendants in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaint alleges violations of ERISA as it relates to the Plan. The named plaintiff is a former employee of the Company. Although discovery has not yet commenced, the Company believes that the allegations are without merit, and intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously.

R. Exempt Party-in-Interest Transactions

The Plan permits investments in various investment funds managed by TVG. TVG is the record keeper of the Plan, therefore, investment transactions in these investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions that are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules of ERISA.

In addition, at December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Plan held 787,741 and 701,948 units, respectively, of Radian common stock and money market accounts, with a cost basis of $13,171,793 and $13,434,226, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Plan recorded dividend income on Radian common stock of $25,162 and $25,659, respectively. Transactions in the Company’s common stock qualify as exempt party-in-interest transactions under ERISA.

T. Subsequent Events

The Radian Group Inc. Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) was terminated in 2007. The Company submitted a determination letter application to the Internal Revenue Service seeking a favorable determination letter relating to the Pension Plan’s qualifying status at June 1, 2007, the Pension Plan’s termination date. A favorable determination was received on June 5, 2008. Distributions of the Pension Plan’s assets are expected to be made in the third quarter of 2008. Active participants and terminated employees with balances in the Pension Plan will have the option of rolling over their account balances under the Pension Plan into the Plan.
