Business Highlights

  • Underwriting income was $3.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 compared to $8.3 million for the same period in 2022. (Please see tables which follow.)
    • Excluding two casualty books that performed poorly, a New York habitational book and a non-renewed restaurant book, underwriting income would have been $37.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
      • Rate and underwriting actions have been taken to improve the profitability of the New York habitational book.
      • The restaurant book was non-renewed on March 1, 2023.
  • The Company's Penn-America segment and Consolidated accident year combined ratios were 95.2% and 97.3%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
  • Penn-America performed as follows:
    • Penn-America’s gross written premiums in aggregate for Wholesale Commercial, InsurTech, and Assumed Reinsurance business grew by 11.6% in 2023. Gross written premiums for Programs decreased 40.5% in 2023 due to rate and underwriting actions taken to improve profitability which were initiated by the Company’s new CEO following his appointment in October 2022.
    • Penn-America’s accident year underwriting income was $18.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 compared to $13.5 million for the same period in 2022.
      • Excluding the New York habitational book, accident year underwriting income would have been $23.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.
    • Penn-America’s accident year loss ratio was 57.4% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, which was an improvement of 1.6 points from the same period in 2022.
      • Excluding the New York Habitational book, Penn-America’s 2023 accident year loss ratio was 55.8%.
  • Net investment income increased to $55.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 from $27.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.
    • The increase in net investment income was primarily due to the strategies employed by the Company in April 2022 to take advantage of rising interest rates, which resulted in a 74% increase in book yield over time on the fixed income portfolio to 4.0% at December 31, 2023 from 2.3% at March 31, 2022, while the average duration of these securities was shortened to 1.1 years at December 31, 2023 from 3.3 years at March 31, 2022.
    • Approximately $850 million of cash flow, or approximately 60%, of the Company’s fixed income portfolio, will be generated from maturities and investment income between December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2024, positioning the Company to continue to increase book yield by investing maturities in higher yielding bonds.
  • Book value per share increased $2.66 per share, or 8.2% (including $1.00 per share of dividends paid during 2023), to $47.53 at December 31, 2023 from $44.87 at December 31, 2022.

Penn-America: Gross written premiums and net written premiums of Penn-America’s Wholesale Commercial, InsurTech, and Assumed Reinsurance business grew by 11.6% and 13.1%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The growth in Wholesale Commercial is driven by new agency appointments, strong rate increases as well as exposure growth in both property and general liability. The growth in InsurTech is primarily due to new agent appointments and focused marketing efforts. The growth in Assumed Reinsurance is primarily due to new treaties assumed in 2023. Gross written premiums for Programs decreased 40.5% due to rate and underwriting actions taken to improve profitability which were initiated by the Company’s new CEO following his appointment in October 2022. Penn-America’s gross written premiums and net written premiums declined by 4.7% and 3.6%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022.

Non-Core Operations: Gross written premiums and net written premiums decreased 86.2% and 80.8%, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in gross written premiums and net written premiums was primarily due to selling the manufactured home & dwelling and farm businesses and the non-renewal of a casualty reinsurance treaty.

Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s Combined Ratio for the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

The consolidated combined ratio was 99.7% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, (Loss Ratio 61.1% and Expense Ratio 38.6%) as compared to 98.8% (Loss Ratio 59.6% and Expense Ratio 39.2%) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

  • The consolidated accident year property loss ratio improved by 6.6 points to 55.0% in 2023 from 61.6% in 2022. The improvement is mainly due to lower non-catastrophe claims frequency and severity within Penn-America partially offset by higher catastrophe claims frequency.
  • The consolidated accident year casualty loss ratio increased by 0.5 point to 61.1% in 2023 from 60.6% in 2022. Higher claims severity in the New York habitational book and a non-renewed restaurant book contributed to this increase.

Penn-America: The accident year combined ratio was 95.2% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, (Loss Ratio 57.4% and Expense Ratio 37.8%) as compared to 96.5% (Loss Ratio 59.0% and Expense Ratio 37.5%) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The calendar year combined ratio for Penn-America was 103.6% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, (Loss Ratio 65.8% and Expense Ratio 37.8%) as compared to 97.4% (Loss Ratio 59.8% and Expense Ratio 37.6%) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

  • Penn-America's accident year property loss ratio improved by 4.8 points to 53.4% in 2023 from 58.2% in 2022. The improvement in the accident year property loss ratios is mainly due to lower non-catastrophe claims frequency and severity partially offset by higher catastrophe claims frequency.
  • Penn-America's accident year casualty loss ratio increased by 0.4 points to 59.9% in 2023 from 59.5% in 2022. The increase in the Penn-America loss ratio is due to higher claims severity primarily related to the New York habitational book.
  • Excluding the New York habitational book, Penn-America’s accident year combined ratio was 93.8%.
  • Penn-America’s 2023 calendar year combined ratio was impacted by loss reserve strengthening primarily from casualty business for the 2019 through 2022 accident years. A New York habitational book comprised $13.2 million of strengthening. It also impacted results in the 2023 accident year. Rate and underwriting actions have been taken to improve the profitability of the New York habitational book. Excluding the New York habitational book, Penn-America’s calendar year combined ratio was 98.6%.

Non-Core Operations: The calendar year combined ratio was 87.9% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, (Loss Ratio 47.1% and Expense Ratio 40.8%) as compared to 101.1% (Loss Ratio 59.4% and Expense Ratio 41.7%) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The decline in the loss ratio resulted from the commutation of a reinsurance treaty and favorable development in the Farm, Ranch & Stable business.

Note Regarding Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is equal to net income (loss) excluding after-tax net realized investment losses and other unique charges not related to operations. Adjusted operating income is not a substitute for net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should not place undue reliance on this measure.
