Fourth Quarter 2023 Summary

  • Revenues of $446.4 million for the quarter, an increase of 20.8% from Q4'22, driven by growth in Fortegra’s specialty insurance lines. Excluding investment gains and losses, revenues increased 23.8%.
  • Net income of $6.9 million compared to $0.9 million in Q4'22, driven by growth in our insurance business, partially offset by lower shipping income as a result of the sale of our vessels in 2022.
  • Adjusted net income of $13.9 million increased by 43.1% from $9.7 million in Q4'22, driven by growth in our insurance operations. Annualized Adjusted return on average equity was 13.6% for the quarter, as compared to 9.9% in Q4'22.
  • Declared a dividend of $0.06 per share (an increase of 20%) to stockholders of record on March 11, 2024 with a payment date of March 18, 2024.

Full Year 2023 Summary

  • Revenues of $1.6 billion, an increase of 18.0% from 2022, driven by growth in Fortegra’s specialty insurance lines. Excluding investment gains and losses, revenues increased 19.3%.
  • Net income of $14.0 million compared to net loss of $8.3 million in 2022, driven by growth in insurance operations and the decrease in tax expense related to the tax deconsolidation of Fortegra from $33.1 million in 2022 to $19.1 million in 2023, partially offset by lower mortgage and the sale of our vessels in 2022.
  • Adjusted net income of $61.9 million increased by 16.7% from $53.0 million in 2022, driven by revenue growth in our insurance operations while maintaining a consistent combined ratio. Adjusted return on average equity was 15.2% for the year, as compared to 13.6% in 2022.

  • Gross written premiums and premium equivalents grew 37.5% for the quarter and 21.4% for the year, driven by growth in specialty E&S and admitted insurance lines in the U.S. and Europe, along with benefits from a book-roll transaction with one of Fortegra’s MGA partners.
  • Net written premiums were $384.3 million for the quarter, an increase of 56.7%, and $1,319.9 million for the year, an increase of 21.2%. The increases in both periods were consistent with the growth in gross written premiums and premium equivalents and increased retention on Fortegra’s whole account quota share reinsurance agreement from 30% to 40%, effective April 1, 2023.
  • Record revenues increased 25.4% for the quarter and 27.6% for the year driven by premium growth in specialty E&S and admitted lines, and services businesses in the U.S. and Europe, along with growth in net investment income. Excluding the impact of investment gains and losses, revenues increased by 24.6% for the quarter and 25.9% for the year.
  • The combined ratio for the quarter was 89.8%, in-line with the prior year’s period. Total year 2023 combined ratio was 90.3%, as compared to 90.4% in 2022, reflecting the consistent underwriting performance and scalability of the Company’s operating platform.
  • Record income before taxes for the quarter of $44.2 million, up $15.1 million. Total year 2023 income before the taxes was $129.8 million, up $61.7 million. After-tax return on equity for the year was 25.7%, compared to 14.6% in 2022. The increases were driven by growth in underwriting and fee revenues, the consistent combined ratio and improved contributions from the investment portfolio.
  • Adjusted net income for the quarter of $32.6 million, up 36.2% from Q4'22. Total year 2023 adjusted net income was $115.7 million, up 38.0% from prior year. Adjusted return on average equity for the year was 29.2%, compared to 26.1% in 2022. The increases in both periods were driven by growth in underwriting and fee income and increased net investment income.
  • As of December 31, 2023, Fortegra held an outstanding balance of $130.0 million on its revolving line of credit, as compared to a balance of $46.0 million as of September 30, 2023. The increase in borrowings was primarily to fund statutory capital requirements and general corporate purposes.
  • In December 2023, Fortegra entered into a commutation agreement with a partner resulting in a reduction of policy liabilities and unpaid claims of $75.6 million relating to policies written in the 2020 and 2021 treaty years.

  • Tiptree Capital loss before taxes was $2.1 million for the quarter, compared to income of $8.5 million in Q4’22, driven by lower mortgage revenues and the sale of vessels in 2022.
  • Loss before taxes was $6.5 million for the year, down from the prior year driven by the sale of five vessels in 2022, losses on Invesque and lower mortgage revenues, partially offset by improved performance in the Company’s other investment holdings.
  • Total Tiptree Capital book value was $178.1 million as of Q4’23.

Corporate:

Corporate includes expenses of the holding company for employee compensation and benefits, audit and professional fees, and public company and other expenses. For the quarter, corporate expenses were $12.1 million compared to $12.5 million in Q4'22. For the year, the corporate expenses were $40.2 million compared to $46.4 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by lower interest expense as we repaid our corporate holding company borrowings in June 2022.

Non-GAAP

Management uses Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity as measurements of operating performance. Management believes these measures provide supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance and comparison among companies. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. Adjusted net income represents income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting, all of which is reduced for non-controlling interests. Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity are presented before the impacts of non-controlling interests. Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for GAAP net income. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of these measures to their GAAP equivalents.

Tiptree Inc.
Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures — Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity

Adjusted net income is defined as income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, including merger and acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses) and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting, all of which is reduced for non-controlling interests. The calculation of adjusted net income excludes net realized and unrealized gains (losses) that relate to investments or assets rather than business operations. Adjusted net income is presented before the impacts of non-controlling interests. Adjusted return on average equity represents adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. We believe adjusted net income provides additional clarity on the results of the Company’s underlying business operations as a whole for the periods presented by excluding distortions created by the unpredictability and volatility of realized and unrealized gains (losses). We also believe adjusted net income provides useful supplemental information to investors as it is frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance between periods and for comparison among companies.
