HAMILTON, Bermuda, Nov. 4, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MHLD) ("Maiden" or "the Company") today reported third quarter 2015 net operating earnings(1) of $25.8 million compared with $29.3 million in the third quarter of 2014. Net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders in the third quarter of 2015 was $22.5 million compared to net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $27.8 million in the third quarter of 2014.
Commenting on the Company's results, Art Raschbaum, Chief Executive Officer of Maiden, said: "Maiden continues to generate solid earnings and double digit operating returns despite a challenging operating environment. Importantly, we continue to enjoy growth in invested assets and strong year-on-year growth in investment income. While comparative year-on-year earnings and underwriting results have been impacted by adverse commercial auto experience in the Diversified Reinsurance segment, we are confident that we are effectively responding to these issues. While these actions have adversely impacted revenue in the quarter, we remain confident in our ability to expand our Diversified Reinsurance segment in the U.S., with continued growth from existing clients and a strong flow of year-end opportunities. In Europe, we expect the recently announced branded automotive OEM solutions partnership with Allianz to drive growth in the Diversified Reinsurance segment, along with additional Solvency II related initiatives. Our AmTrust segment continues to benefit from strong business growth and strong underwriting performance."
