HAMILTON, Bermuda, Nov. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MHLD) (“Maiden” or “the Company”) today reported a third quarter 2017 net loss attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $63.6 million or $0.74 per diluted common share compared to net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $31.8 million or $0.40 per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2016. The non-GAAP operating loss(1) was $56.4 million, or $0.66 per diluted common share compared with non-GAAP operating earnings of $30.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted common share in the third quarter of 2016.
Commenting on the results, Art Raschbaum, Chief Executive Officer of Maiden stated, “While results in the quarter were impacted by both catastrophe related loss activity and loss development primarily in the AmTrust Reinsurance segment, there were a number of favorable underlying trends which we believe will benefit future quarters. In the quarter we realized improved non-catastrophe operating performance in the U.S. portion of our Diversified Reinsurance segment. Across all of the Diversified Reinsurance segment we enjoyed strong premium growth. Investment earnings and invested assets continue to grow and operating cash flow was strong. Maiden’s common share count declined, reflecting share repurchases made during the quarter. Importantly, we believe that the actions we have taken to address historical loss reserve development while improving underlying business trends will benefit Maiden and our shareholders in the future.”

| (1) Non-GAAP operating (loss) earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net (loss) income attributable to Maiden common shareholders excluding realized and unrealized investment gains and losses, foreign exchange and other gains and losses, amortization of intangible assets, divested E&S business and NGHC run-off, accelerated amortization of senior note issuance cost and non-cash deferred tax expense and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income. The Company's management believes that non-GAAP operating (loss) earnings is a useful indicator of trends in the Company's underlying operations. The Company's measure of non-GAAP operating (loss) earnings may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. | |||||||
| (2) Non-GAAP (loss) income from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net (loss) income attributable to Maiden excluding foreign exchange and other gains and losses, amortization of intangible assets, interest and amortization expenses, accelerated amortization of senior note issuance cost, income tax expense and net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) income. The Company’s management believes that non-GAAP (loss) income from operations is a useful measure of the Company’s underlying earnings fundamentals based on its underwriting and investment income before financing costs. This (loss) income from operations enables readers of this information to more clearly understand the essential operating results of the Company. The Company’s measure of non-GAAP (loss) income from operations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. | |||||||
| (3) Investable assets is the total of the Company's investments, cash and cash equivalents and loan to a related party. | |||||||
| (4) Book value per common share is calculated using Maiden common shareholders’ equity (shareholders' equity excluding the aggregate liquidation value of our preference shares) divided by the number of common shares outstanding. | |||||||
| (5) Total capital resources is the sum of the Company's principal amount of debt and Maiden shareholders' equity. | |||||||
| (6) Dividends on preference shares consist of $3,094 and $9,282 paid to Preference shares - Series A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, $2,938 paid to Preference shares - Series C for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and $8,816 and $9,470 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $2,513 paid to Preference shares - Series D for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. It also includes $2,991 and $8,971 paid to Preference Shares - Series B during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. On September 15, 2016, each of then outstanding Preference share - Series B were automatically converted into 12,069,090 of the Company's common shares at a conversion rate of 3.6573 per preference share. | |||||||
| (7) Non-GAAP operating return on average common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses non-GAAP operating return on average common shareholders' equity as a measure of profitability that focuses on the return to Maiden common shareholders. It is calculated using non-GAAP operating (loss) earnings attributable to Maiden common shareholders divided by average Maiden common shareholders' equity. | |||||||
| (8) During a period of loss, the basic weighted average common shares outstanding is used in the denominator of the diluted loss per common share computation as the effect of including potential dilutive shares would be anti-dilutive. | |||||||
| (9) Calculated by dividing net loss and LAE by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |||||||
| (10) Calculated by dividing commission and other acquisition expenses by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |||||||
| (11) Calculated by dividing general and administrative expenses by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |||||||
| (12) Calculated by adding together the commission and other acquisition expense ratio and general and administrative expense ratio. | |||||||
| (13) Calculated by adding together the net loss and LAE ratio and the expense ratio. | |||||||
| (14) Underwriting (loss) income is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated as net premiums earned plus other insurance revenue less net loss and LAE, commission and other acquisition expenses and general and administrative expenses directly related to underwriting activities. Management believes that this measure is important in evaluating the underwriting performance of the Company and its segments. This measure is also a useful tool to measure the profitability of the Company separately from the investment results and is also a widely used performance indicator in the insurance industry. | |||||||
| (15) Underwriting related general and administrative expenses is a non-GAAP measure and includes expenses which are segregated for analytical purposes as a component of underwriting income. | |||||||
