HAMILTON, Bermuda, Feb. 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MHLD) (“Maiden” or “the Company”) today reported a fourth quarter 2016 net loss attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $74.7 million or $0.87 per diluted common share compared to net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $24.7 million or $0.32 per diluted common share in the fourth quarter of 2015. The net operating loss(1) was $69.7 million, or $0.81 per diluted common share compared with net operating earnings of $26.4 million, or $0.34 per diluted common share in the fourth quarter of 2015.
As Maiden previously reported on February 14, 2017, the Company’s fourth quarter 2016 results include a reserve charge of $120.4 million, which is primarily derived from the commercial auto line of business in both of its reported operating segments. The charge includes both a provision for adverse development realized during the fourth quarter, as well as a more conservative view of the ultimate exposures on commercial auto liability throughout the portfolio. Excluding the impact of the $120.4 million reserve charge, Maiden would have reported fourth quarter 2016 net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $45.7 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, and an annualized net return on common equity of 15.1%. Excluding the impact of the $120.4 million reserve charge, Maiden would have reported fourth quarter 2016 net operating income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $39.3 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share and an annualized operating return on common equity(7) of 13.0%. Excluding the impact of the $120.4 million reserve charge, Maiden would have reported 2016 net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $135.7 million, or $1.67 per diluted share and a net return on common equity of 13.8%. Excluding the impact of the $120.4 million reserve charge, Maiden would have reported 2016 net operating income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $126.2 million, or $1.56 per diluted common share and an operating return on common equity(7) of 12.8%.
Commenting on the Company's results, Art Raschbaum, Chief Executive Officer of Maiden, said: “Despite the significant challenges presented in the commercial auto business, we reported a modest profit for the year and have continued to grow our business and investable assets while strengthening investment income. We remain focused on improving the profitability of our business and believe the fourth quarter reserve charge will help us to stabilize underwriting performance as we enter 2017. Importantly, our 2016 underwriting year expected loss ratios reflect solid profitability. While the market remains competitive, we were able to expand our business in 2016 by leveraging our strong franchise and value-added products and services. We believe our prospects for continued disciplined growth are strong. Additionally, we are in an excellent position to improve our cost of capital, and will explore opportunities to refinance our existing indebtedness in 2017 at an improved rate.”

The AmTrust Reinsurance segment combined ratio was 108.1% in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to 95.8% in the fourth quarter of 2015 due to an elevated level of loss development from AmTrust’s Specialty Program segment in the quarter, primarily in commercial auto and to a lesser extent general liability. Excluding the fourth quarter reserve charge of $120.4 million, Maiden’s combined ratio for the fourth quarter of 2016 would have been 97.9%, comprised of 98.1% for the Diversified Reinsurance segment and 96.0% for the AmTrust Reinsurance segment.
