PEMBROKE, Bermuda, Aug. 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MHLD) (“Maiden” or the “Company”) today reported second quarter 2018 net loss attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $5.9 million or $0.07 per diluted common share compared to a net loss attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $22.4 million or $0.26 per diluted common share in the second quarter of 2017. The non-GAAP operating loss(11) was $10.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted common share compared with a non-GAAP operating loss of $12.5 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share in the second quarter of 2017.
Commenting on the Company’s results, President and Chief Executive Officer, Art Raschbaum said, “While we did experience continued loss development during the second quarter, our Diversified combined ratios are significantly better in 2018 as compared to 2017, with much lower prior year adverse loss development. We continue to evaluate the impact of the operational changes taking place in the underlying claims for the AmTrust segment and believe we are taking a prudent course as more is learned and observed regarding these continuing changes. Revenue in the quarter reflected a continued moderation of premiums from our largest client, AmTrust, somewhat offset by increased premiums in the Diversified segment. We remain committed to restoring underwriting profitability by maintaining disciplined underwriting and through our strategic review (which we discuss later in this release), enhancing shareholder value.”
Consolidated Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2018
In the second quarter of 2018, gross premiums written decreased to $654.2 million from $705.2 million in the second quarter of 2017 primarily due to a decline in premiums written in the Company’s AmTrust segment, the combination of market conditions and underwriting measures applied by AmTrust during the period, particularly in its workers’ compensation line of business. These declines were partially offset by an increase in gross premiums in the Diversified segment, which included new account growth and expansion of our client relationships in the segment’s U.S. portfolio. Net premiums written totaled $645.6 million in the second quarter of 2018, a decrease of 5.6% compared to $684.1 million in the second quarter of 2017. Net premiums earned were $667.3 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $711.1 million in the second quarter of 2017, representing a decrease of 6.2%.
Net loss and loss adjustment expenses of $491.6 million compared to $528.6 million in the second quarter of 2017. The loss ratio(6) in the second quarter of 2018 was 73.4% compared to 74.1% reported in the second quarter of 2017.
Commission and other acquisition expenses decreased 5.4% to $198.7 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared to $210.0 million in the second quarter of 2017 resulting in a commission and other acquisition expense ratios of 29.7% and 29.5%, respectively. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2018 totaled $19.6 million compared with $15.3 million in the second quarter of 2017 primarily due to increases in audit, legal actuarial and other professional fees and higher technology-related expenses. The general and administrative expense ratio(8) in the second quarter of 2018 increased to 2.9% compared to 2.2% in the second quarter of 2017, while the expense ratio(9) was 32.6% in the second quarter of 2018 compared with 31.7% in the same quarter last year.
The combined ratio(10) for the second quarter of 2018 totaled 106.0% compared with 105.8% in the second quarter of 2017.
Net investment income grew by 9.4% in the quarter to $44.3 million.. As of June 30, 2018, the average yield on the fixed income portfolio was 3.19% while the average duration of investable assets was 4.4 years.

Gross premiums written and net premiums written increased by 15.6% and 12.4%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2018 primarily due to new account growth and expansion of other client relationships within the U.S. Net premiums earned decreased by 6.2% in the second quarter of 2018 driven by non-renewals and re-underwriting of certain contracts in 2017 and during the six months ended June 30, 2018. The segment experienced adverse prior year loss development of $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2018 largely from General Liability and Commercial Auto treaty contracts. This compared to adverse prior year development of $25.4 million in the same period last year primarily due to adverse development in facultative commercial auto as well as a handful of specific contracts across several lines of business. The segment’s combined ratio decreased to 101.1% in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 112.9% in the same period last year due primarily to lower adverse prior year development compared to the prior period offset slightly by higher general and administrative expenses.

Gross premiums written decreased 12.9% during the second quarter of 2018 and reflects reductions in the Small Commercial business lines, particularly AmTrust’s workers’ compensation line of business. The slightly lower decrease in net premiums written was due to the lower utilization of retrocessional capacity compared to the second quarter of 2017. Net premiums earned in the segment decreased by 6.1% compared to the same period in 2017 mainly due to the decline in net premiums written in the AmTrust quota share. The segment experienced adverse prior year development of $28.4 million for the second quarter of 2018 mainly from Worker’s Compensation and General Liability. This compares to $29.4 million of adverse development for the second quarter of 2017 primarily related to non-program casualty and European hospital liability. The segment combined ratio was 106.7% in the second quarter of 2018 compared to 101.5% in the same period in 2017 primarily due to higher initial current year loss ratios on current year premiums earned during the period slightly offset by a comparatively smaller amount of adverse prior period loss development.

Strategic Review Update and Executive Leadership Changes
As previously announced, earlier in 2018 the Company embarked on a strategic review of its operations in order to increase value to its shareholders. As part of this ongoing process, the Company continues to evaluate a broad range of options, but the Company will be maintaining a substantial presence in the U.S. reinsurance market which draws on Maiden’s specialist focus from which it expects to build. The Company anticipates that it will complete its strategic review during the second half of 2018 with the majority of this initiative completed during the upcoming third quarter. As the Company continues to evaluate various additional strategic measures, it expects improved results of operations from its Diversified Segment in the future via enhanced underwriting standards and expense reduction. These actions are expected to position the Company for growth with greater operating efficiencies going forward. Executive management will provide shareholders with regular updates of these initiatives.
The Company also announced that Art Raschbaum, Maiden’s President and Chief Executive Officer, has communicated his decision to retire for personal reasons effective September 1, 2018. The Company’s Board of Directors have appointed Lawrence F. Metz, Maiden’s current Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, to serve in the role of President and Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, Karen Schmitt, Chief Financial Officer, has announced her retirement and will remain with the Company as Executive Vice President until March 1, 2019.

Zyskind, Chairman of the Board of Directors. “He has demonstrated strong leadership and business acumen since joining Maiden in 2008. I want to recognize his significant contributions to Maiden and thank him for his many years of service. We are also appreciative of the contributions that Karen has made to our organization over many years and sincerely thank her for agreeing to stay on to assist with the transition. We are excited to have Larry and Pat, two long time leaders at Maiden, to step in to their new roles. During our strategic review, the Board recognized some very valuable business in our Diversified platform. We will be focusing on those niches in the future, which along with cutting expenses, will bring the Company back to acceptable levels of profitability. We are confident in our new executive management team to execute this plan.”
Mr. Metz has been a senior leader of Maiden since his appointment as Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary in 2009.

| (1) | 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. | |
| (2) | Non-GAAP income from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net income (loss) 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 income (loss). The Company’s management believes that non-GAAP 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 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 income from operations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. | |
| (3) | Dividends on preference shares consist of $3,094 and $6,188 paid to Preference shares - Series A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, $2,939 and $5,878 paid to Preference shares - Series C for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $2,513 and $5,025 (2017 - $0) paid to Preference shares - Series D for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. | |
| (4) | 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. | |
| (5) | 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. | |
| (6) | Calculated by dividing net loss and LAE by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |
| (7) | Calculated by dividing commission and other acquisition expenses by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |
| (8) | Calculated by dividing general and administrative expenses by the sum of net premiums earned and other insurance revenue. | |
| (9) | Calculated by adding together the commission and other acquisition expense ratio and the general and administrative expense ratio. | |
| (10) | Calculated by adding together the net loss and LAE ratio and the expense ratio. | |
| (11) | 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 investment gains and losses, foreign exchange and other gains and losses, amortization of intangible assets, divested excess and surplus 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 income (loss). 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. | |
| (12) | 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. | |
| (13) | Investable assets is the total of the Company's investments, cash and cash equivalents and loan to a related party. | |
| (14) | Total capital resources is the sum of the Company's principal amount of debt and Maiden shareholders' equity. | |
| (15) | 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. | |
