NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

AMERCO, a Nevada corporation (“AMERCO”), has a second fiscal quarter that ends on the 30 th of September for each year that is referenced. Our insurance company subsidiaries have a second quarter that ends on the 30 th of June for each year that is referenced. They have been consolidated on that basis. Our insurance companies’ financial reporting processes conform to calendar year reporting as required by state insurance departments. Management believes that consolidating their calendar year into our fiscal year financial statements does not materially affect the financial position or results of operations. The Company discloses any material events occurring during the intervening period. Consequently, all references to our insurance subsidiaries’ years 2012 and 2011 correspond to fiscal 2013 and 2012 for AMERCO.

Accounts denominated in non-U.S. currencies have been translated into U.S. dollars. Certain amounts reported in previous years have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the second quarter and the first six months and the cash flows for the first six months ended fiscal 2013 and 2012 are unaudited.

In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.

Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Description of Legal Entities

AMERCO is the holding company for:

U-Haul International, Inc. (“U-Haul”),

Amerco Real Estate Company (“Real Estate”),

Repwest Insurance Company (“Repwest”), and

Oxford Life Insurance Company (“Oxford”).

Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refers to AMERCO and all of its legal subsidiaries.

Description of Operating Segments

AMERCO has three reportable segments. They are Moving and Storage, Property and Casualty Insurance and Life Insurance.

The Moving and Storage operating segment includes AMERCO, U-Haul, and Real Estate and the wholly-owned subsidiaries of U-Haul and Real Estate. Operations consist of the rental of trucks and trailers, sales of moving supplies, sales of towing accessories, sales of propane, and the rental of fixed and mobile self-storage spaces to the “do-it-yourself” mover and management of self-storage properties owned by others. Operations are conducted under the registered trade name U-Haul ® throughout the United States and Canada.

AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

The Property and Casualty Insurance operating segment includes Repwest and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and ARCOA risk retention group (“ARCOA”). The Property and Casualty Insurance operating segment provides loss adjusting and claims handling for U-Haul through regional offices across North America. The Property and Casualty Insurance operating segment also underwrites components of the Safemove, Safetow, Super Safemove and Safestor protection packages to U-Haul customers. The business plan for the Property and Casualty Insurance operating segment includes offering property and casualty products in other U-Haul related programs. ARCOA is a group captive insurer owned by us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries whose purpose is to provide insurance products related to the moving and storage business

The Life Insurance operating segment includes Oxford and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Oxford provides life and health insurance products primarily to the senior market through the direct writing or reinsuring of life insurance, Medicare supplement and annuity policies.

2. Earnings per Share

Net earnings for purposes of computing earnings per common share for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2012 are net earnings less preferred stock dividends paid, adjusted for the price paid by us for the redemption of our preferred stock less its carrying value on our balance sheet at that time. Preferred stock dividends include accrued dividends of AMERCO. Preferred stock dividends paid to or accrued for entities that are part of the consolidated group are eliminated in consolidation.

The weighted average common shares outstanding exclude post-1992 shares of the employee stock ownership plan that have not been committed to be released. The unreleased shares, net of shares committed to be released, were 90,159 and 131,483 as of September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively.

On June 1, 2011, we redeemed all 6,100,000 shares of our issued and outstanding Series A 8½% Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) at a redemption price of $25 per share plus accrued dividends through that date. Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260 – Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”), for earnings per share purposes, we recognize the deficit of the carrying amount of the Series A Preferred over the consideration paid to redeem the shares.

The Series A Preferred was recorded in our Additional Paid-In Capital account, net of original issue costs at $146.3 million prior to the redemption. We paid $152.5 million to redeem the shares on June 1, 2011 of which $7.7 million was paid to our insurance subsidiaries in exchange for their holdings. The difference between what was paid to redeem the shares less their carrying amount on our balance sheet, reduced by our insurance subsidiaries holdings was $5.9 million. This amount was recognized as a reduction to our earnings available to our common shareholders for the purposes of computing earnings per share for the first six months of fiscal 2012.

3. Investments

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

We deposit bonds with insurance regulatory authorities to meet statutory requirements. The adjusted cost of bonds on deposit with insurance regulatory authorities was $16.2 million at September 30, 2012.

The table above includes gross unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.

We sold available-for-sale securities with a fair value of $54.0 million during the first six months of fiscal 2013. The gross realized gains on these sales totaled $0.2 million. The gross realized losses on these sales totaled $0.3 million.

The unrealized losses of more than twelve months in the available-for-sale table are considered temporary declines. The majority of this unrealized loss is related to our long term investments in 1.8 million shares of Bank of America common stock. We track each investment with an unrealized loss and evaluate them on an individual basis for other-than-temporary impairments including obtaining corroborating opinions from third party sources, performing trend analysis and reviewing management’s future plans. Certain of these investments may have declines determined by management to be other-than-temporary and we recognized these write-downs through earnings. Our insurance subsidiaries recognized $0.1 million in other-than-temporary impairments for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2012. There were no write downs in the second quarter or for the first six months of fiscal 2013.

The investment portfolio primarily consists of corporate securities and U.S. government securities. We believe we monitor our investments as appropriate. Our methodology of assessing other-than-temporary impairments is based on security-specific analysis as of the balance sheet date and considers various factors including the length of time to maturity, the extent to which the fair value has been less than the cost, the financial condition and the near-term prospects of the issuer, and whether the debtor is current on its contractually obligated interest and principal payments. Nothing has come to management’s attention that would lead to the belief that each issuer would not have the ability to meet the remaining contractual obligations of the security, including payment at maturity. We have the ability and intent not to sell our fixed maturity and common stock investments for a period of time sufficient to allow us to recover our costs.

The portion of other-than-temporary impairment related to a credit loss is recognized in earnings. The significant inputs utilized in the evaluation of mortgage backed securities credit losses include ratings, delinquency rates, and prepayment activity. The significant inputs utilized in the evaluation of asset backed securities credit losses include the time frame for principal recovery and the subordination and value of the underlying collateral.

5. Derivatives

We manage exposure to changes in market interest rates. Our use of derivative instruments is limited to highly effective interest rate swaps to hedge the risk of changes in cash flows (future interest payments) attributable to changes in LIBOR swap rates, the designated benchmark interest rate being hedged on certain of our LIBOR indexed variable rate debt and a variable rate operating lease. The interest rate swaps effectively fix our interest payments on certain LIBOR indexed variable rate debt. We monitor our positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not currently anticipate non-performance by the counterparties. Interest rate swap agreements are not entered into for trading purposes.

We lease a portion of our rental equipment and certain of our facilities under operating leases with terms that expire at various dates substantially through 2019. As of September 30, 2012, AMERCO has guaranteed $124.3 million of residual values for these rental equipment assets at the end of the respective lease terms.

Shoen

In September 2002, Paul F. Shoen filed a shareholder derivative lawsuit in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned Paul F. Shoen vs. SAC Holding Corporation et al ., CV 02-05602, seeking damages and equitable relief on behalf of AMERCO from SAC Holdings and certain current and former members of the AMERCO Board of Directors, including Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen and James P. Shoen as Defendants. AMERCO is named as a nominal Defendant in the case. The complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty, self-dealing, usurpation of corporate opportunities, wrongful interference with prospective economic advantage and unjust enrichment and seeks the unwinding of sales of self-storage properties by subsidiaries of AMERCO to SAC prior to the filing of the complaint. The complaint seeks a declaration that such transfers are void as well as unspecified damages. In October 2002, the Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint. Also in October 2002, Ron Belec filed a derivative action in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned Ron Belec vs. William E. Carty, et al ., CV 02-06331 and in January 2003, M.S. Management Company, Inc. filed a derivative action in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned M.S. Management Company, Inc. vs. William E. Carty, et al ., CV 03-00386. Two additional derivative suits were also filed against these parties. Each of these suits is substantially similar to the Paul F. Shoen case. The Court consolidated the five cases and thereafter dismissed these actions in May 2003, concluding that the AMERCO Board of Directors had the requisite level of independence required in order to have these claims resolved by the Board. Plaintiffs appealed this decision and, in July 2006, the Nevada Supreme Court reversed the ruling of the trial court and remanded the case to the trial court for proceedings consistent with its ruling, allowing the Plaintiffs to file an amended complaint and plead in addition to substantive claims, demand futility.

In November 2006, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. In December 2006, the Defendants filed motions to dismiss, based on various legal theories. In March 2007, the Court denied AMERCO’s motion to dismiss regarding the issue of demand futility, stating that “Plaintiffs have satisfied the heightened pleading requirements of demand futility by showing a majority of the members of the AMERCO Board of Directors were interested parties in the SAC transactions.” The Court heard oral argument on the remainder of the Defendants’ motions to dismiss, including the motion (“Goldwasser Motion”) based on the fact that the subject matter of the lawsuit had been settled and dismissed in earlier litigation known as Goldwasser v. Shoen , C.V.N.-94-00810-ECR (D.Nev), Washoe County, Nevada. In addition, in September and October 2007, the Defendants filed Motions for Judgment on the Pleadings or in the Alternative Summary Judgment, based on the fact that the stockholders of the Company had ratified the underlying transactions at the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders of AMERCO. In December 2007, the Court denied this motion. This ruling does not preclude a renewed motion for summary judgment after discovery and further proceedings on these issues. On April 7, 2008, the litigation was dismissed, on the basis of the Goldwasser Motion. On May 8, 2008, the

AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal of such dismissal to the Nevada Supreme Court (the “Court”). On May 20, 2008, AMERCO filed a cross appeal relating to the denial of its Motion to Dismiss in regard to demand futility.

On May 12, 2011, the Nevada Supreme Court affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded the case for further proceedings. First, the Court ruled that the Goldwasser settlement did not release claims that arose after the agreement and, therefore, reversed the trial court’s dismissal of the Complaint on that ground. Second, the Court affirmed the district court’s determination that the in pari delicto defense is available in a derivative suit and reversed and remanded to the district court to determine if the defense applies to this matter. Third, the Court remanded to the district court to conduct an evidentiary hearing to determine whether demand upon the AMERCO Board was, in fact, futile. Fourth, the Court invited AMERCO to seek a ruling from the district court as to the legal effect of the AMERCO Shareholders’ 2008 ratification of the underlying AMERCO/SAC transactions.

Last, as to individual claims for relief, the Court affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the breach of fiduciary duty of loyalty claims as to all defendants except Mark Shoen. The Court affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the breach of fiduciary duty: ultra vires Acts claim as to all defendants. The Court reversed the district court’s dismissal of aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment claims against the SAC entities. The Court reversed the trial court’s dismissal of the claim for wrongful interference with prospective economic advantage as to all defendants.

On remand, on July 22, 2011, AMERCO filed a Motion for Summary Judgment based upon the Shareholder’s Ratification of the SAC transactions. In addition, on August 29, 2011, certain defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs’ Claim for Wrongful Interference with Prospective Economic Advantage. On August 31, 2011, the trial court held a status conference and entered an order setting forth the briefing schedule for the two motions. On December 23, 2011, the trial court denied AMERCO’s motion for summary judgment and certain defendants’ motion to dismiss. The court set a discovery schedule on the limited issue of demand futility. A four day evidentiary hearing on demand futility was scheduled to begin on August 20, 2012.

On August 6, 2012, Max Belec and Glenbrook Capital Limited Partnership, voluntarily dismissed their complaint with prejudice. On August 20, 2012, the remaining plaintiffs, Paul Shoen and Alan Kahn, dismissed their complaint with prejudice. AMERCO paid none of plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees or costs. In return, AMERCO released plaintiffs from further related litigation based on plaintiffs’ conduct in this litigation. Moreover, Paul Shoen, Alan Kahn, Grover Wickersham and numerous individuals and entities related to Paul Shoen and Grover Wickersham agreed to sell all of their AMERCO securities in the open market and not sue AMERCO or any of the other defendants for 20 years. If the plaintiffs or the related parties breach this agreement, Paul Shoen will be responsible for $5,000,000 in liquidated damages. The parties filed a final Mutual Release Agreement with the Court on October 16, 2012, thereby terminating the case in its entirety, with prejudice.

Environmental

Compliance with environmental requirements of federal, state and local governments has the potential to significantly affect Real Estate’s business operations. Among other things, these requirements regulate the discharge of materials into the air, land and water and govern the use and disposal of hazardous substances. Real Estate is aware of issues regarding hazardous substances on some of its properties. Real Estate regularly makes capital and operating expenditures to stay in compliance with environmental laws and has put in place a remedial plan at each site where it believes such a plan is necessary. Since 1988, Real Estate has managed a testing and removal program for underground storage tanks.

Based upon the information currently available to Real Estate, compliance with the environmental laws and its share of the costs of investigation and cleanup of known hazardous waste sites are not expected to result in a material adverse effect on AMERCO’s financial position or results of operations.

Other

The Company is named as a defendant in various other litigation and claims arising out of the normal course of business. In management’s opinion, none of these other matters will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

10. Related Party Transactions

As set forth in the Audit Committee Charter and consistent with Nasdaq Listing Rules, our Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) reviews and maintains oversight over related party transactions which are required to be disclosed under the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, all such related party transactions are submitted to the Audit Committee for ongoing review and oversight. We believe that our internal processes ensure that our legal and finance departments identify and monitor potential related party transactions which may require disclosure and Audit Committee oversight.

AMERCO has engaged in related party transactions and has continuing related party interests with certain major stockholders, directors and officers of the consolidated group as disclosed below. Management believes that the transactions described below and in the related notes were completed on terms substantially equivalent to those that would prevail in arm’s-length transactions.

SAC Holding Corporation and SAC Holding II Corporation, (collectively “SAC Holdings”) were established in order to acquire self-storage properties. These properties are being managed by us pursuant to management agreements. In the past, we have sold various self-storage properties to SAC Holdings, and such sales provided significant cash flows to us.

Management believes that the sales of self-storage properties to SAC Holdings has provided a unique structure for the Company to earn moving equipment rental revenues and property management fee revenues from the SAC Holdings self-storage properties that the Company manages.

We received cash interest payments of $2.7 million from Private Mini during the first six months of fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. The largest aggregate amount outstanding during the first six months of fiscal 2013 was $66.3 million and the aggregate notes receivable balance at September 30, 2012 was $66.1 million.

We currently manage the self-storage properties owned or leased by SAC Holdings, Mercury Partners, L.P. (“Mercury”), Four SAC Self-Storage Corporation (“4 SAC”), Five SAC Self-Storage Corporation (“5 SAC”), Galaxy Investments, L.P. (“Galaxy”) and Private Mini pursuant to a standard form of management agreement, under which we receive a management fee of between 4% and 10% of the gross receipts plus reimbursement for certain expenses. We received management fees, exclusive of reimbursed expenses, of $14.4 million and $13.5 million from the above mentioned entities during the first six months of fiscal 2013 and 2012. This management fee is consistent with the fee received for other properties we previously managed for third parties.

We lease space for marketing company offices, vehicle repair shops and hitch installation centers from subsidiaries of SAC Holdings, 5 SAC and Galaxy. The terms of the leases are similar to the terms of leases for other properties owned by unrelated parties that are leased to us.

At September 30, 2012, subsidiaries of SAC Holdings, 4 SAC, 5 SAC, Galaxy and Private Mini acted as U-Haul independent dealers. The financial and other terms of the dealership contracts with the aforementioned companies and their subsidiaries are substantially identical to the terms of those with our other independent dealers whereby commissions are paid by us based upon equipment rental revenues

These agreements and notes with subsidiaries of SAC Holdings, 4 SAC, 5 SAC, Galaxy and Private Mini, excluding Dealer Agreements, provided revenues of $16.0 million, expenses of $1.3 million and cash flows of $145.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2013. Revenues and commission expenses related to the Dealer Agreements were $113.8 million and $24.9 million, respectively during the first six months of fiscal 2013.

We adopted Accounting Standards Update 2009-17 (“ASU 2009-17”), which amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation 46(R) , as of April 1, 2010. Management determined that the junior notes of SAC Holdings and Private Mini and the management agreements with SAC Holdings, Mercury, 4 SAC, 5 SAC, Galaxy, and Private Mini represent potential variable interests for us. Management evaluated whether it should be identified as the primary beneficiary of one or more of these variable interest entity’s (“VIE’s”) using a two step approach in which management (i) identified all other parties that hold interests in the VIE’s, and (ii) determined if any variable interest holder has the power to direct the activities of the VIE’s that most significantly impact their economic performance.

Upon adoption Management determined that they do not have a variable interest in the holding entities Mercury, 4 SAC, 5 SAC, or Galaxy through management agreements which are with the individual operating entities or through the issuance of junior debt; therefore, we are precluded from consolidating these entities, which is consistent with the accounting treatment immediately prior to adopting ASU 2009-17. Additionally, after a redetermination caused by the SAC Holding II repayment of the outstanding principal on its junior notes with AMERCO during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, Management has determined that the Company does not have a variable interest in the SAC Holding II holding entity.

We have junior debt with the holding entities SAC Holding Corporation and Private Mini which represents a variable interest in each individual entity. Though we have certain protective rights within these debt agreements, we have no present influence or control over these holding entities unless their protective rights become exercisable, which management considers unlikely based on their payment history. As a result, we have no basis under ASC 810 - Consolidation (“ ASC 810”) to consolidate these entities, which is consistent with the accounting treatment immediately prior to adopting ASU 2009-17.

We do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the individual operating entities which have management agreements with U-Haul. Through control of the holding entities assets, and its ability and history of making key decisions relating to the entity and its assets, Blackwater, and its owner, are the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact each of the individual holding entities and the individual operating entities’ performance. As a result, we have no basis under ASC 810 to consolidate these entities, which is consistent with the accounting treatment immediately prior to adopting ASU 2009-17.

We have not provided financial or other support explicitly or implicitly during the first six months ended September 30, 2012 to any of these entities that it was not previously contractually required to provide. The carrying amount and classification of the assets and liabilities in our balance sheets that relates to our variable interests in the aforementioned entities are as follows, which approximate the maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these related party entities:
