KMG is reporting $559,000 in net income for the second quarter on $55 million in revenue, compared with $1 million in net income on $43 million in revenue for the second quarter of 2006.
Earned premiums were down at the old Kanawha business and for worksite policies at the company's "legacy worksite" business.
