Third Point Re Reports Third Quarter 2013 Earnings Results
Net Income of $46.6 Million, or $0.46 Per Diluted Common Share
HAMILTON, Bermuda, Nov. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Third Point Reinsurance Ltd. ("Third Point Re" or the "Company") (NYSE: TPRE) today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2013.
"Following our initial public offering in August 2013, we are off to a strong start as a public company thanks to improving underwriting results and excellent investment results," commented John Berger, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Underwriting Officer. "While reinsurance market conditions remain challenging, we expect further improvement in our underwriting results as our reinsurance operation continues to gain scale."
Third Point Re reported net income during the third quarter of 2013 of $46.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted common share, compared with $39.6 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Third Point Re reported net income of $147.2 million, or $1.59 per diluted common share, compared with $38.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30,2012.
Diluted book value per share was $12.35 as of September 30, 2013, an increase of $0.28, or 2.3%, for the third quarter and an increase of $1.46, or 13.4%, for the first nine months of 2013. The increase in diluted book value per share reflects earnings per share for the quarter partially offset by the costs associated with Third Point Re's initial public offering (IPO), including underwriting and exchange listing, legal, accounting and related fees. These non-recurring costs were netted against the capital raised and were not expensed through the income statement.
The following table shows certain key financial metrics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

Segment Highlights
Property and Casualty Reinsurance Segment
Gross premiums written increased by $2.0 million, or 4.8%, to $43.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $41.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Gross premiums written increased by $68.7 million, or 42.3%, to $231.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $162.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Third Point Re, through its class 4 reinsurance company Third Point Reinsurance Company Ltd., began underwriting on January 1, 2012. Increases in gross premiums written in 2013 are the result of the successful development of underwriting relationships with intermediaries and reinsurance buyers.
Net premiums earned for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased $27.5 million, or 80.1%, to $61.8 million. Net premiums earned for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $92.8 million, or 147.3%, to $155.8 million. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflects net premiums earned on a larger in-force underwriting portfolio compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012. In addition, the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 include net premiums earned of $17.5 million and $39.8 million, respectively, related to retroactive reinsurance contracts where we record the gross premiums written and earned at the inception of the contract.
The underwriting loss from the Property and Casualty Reinsurance segment for the third quarter was $4.9 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $12.1 million. These results compare to underwriting losses of $5.8 million and $19.7 million in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The combined ratio for the first nine months of 2013 was 107.7% compared to 131.3% in the previous year's first nine months. The improvement in underwriting results was due primarily to crop losses recorded in the 2012 period and a drop in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of earned premium. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Third Point Re recorded a $5.2 million underwriting loss from its crop reinsurance portfolio due to the severe drought suffered by most of the US farm belt.
Catastrophe Risk Management
The Catastrophe Risk Management segment includes the combined results of Third Point Reinsurance Opportunities Fund Ltd. ("Catastrophe Fund"), Third Point Reinsurance Investment Management Ltd. ("Catastrophe Fund Manager"), and Third Point Re Cat Ltd. (the "Catastrophe Reinsurer"). Results of the Catastrophe Risk Management segment are consolidated with Third Point Re's results because Third Point Recurrently controls a majority of the outstanding interests in these entities. Since 2013 was the first year of operation for the Catastrophe Risk Management segment, there is no previous period to which to compare this year's financial results.
After attributing income to non-controlling interests (i.e., the minority investors in the Catastrophe Fund), net income from the Catastrophe Risk Management segment was $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2013 and $2.6 million in the nine months ending September 30, 2013. Net assets under management were $100.5 million at September 30, 2013.
Investments
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, Third Point Re recorded net investment income of $53.4 million, compared to $47.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The return on investments managed by the Company's investment manager, Third Point LLC, was 4.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 6.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded net investment income of $166.1 million, compared to $63.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The return on the Company's investments, as managed by Third Point LLC, was 16.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 8.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
The primary driver of Third Point Re's net investment income is the returns generated by its investment manager, Third Point LLC. Consistent with the first half of 2013, the returns for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were driven by equity positions and to a lesser extent by gains in structured credit. Net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 also benefited from higher average investments managed by Third Point LLC compared to the prior year periods due to the net proceeds generated by Third Point Re's IPO and float contributed by its reinsurance operations.
Also impacting net investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was the allocation of net investment income related to deposit and reinsurance contracts of $1.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The 2012 periods had an insignificant amount of net investment income allocated to deposit liability contracts.

Book Value per Share
Book value per share as used by our management is a non-GAAP measure, as it is calculated after deducting the impact of non-controlling interests, and adding back subscriptions receivable. In addition, diluted book value per share is also a non-GAAP measure and represents book value per share combined with the impact from dilution of all in-the-money share options issued, warrants and unvested restricted shares outstanding as of any period end. We believe that long-term growth in diluted book value per share is the most important measure of our financial performance because it allows our management and investors to track over time the value created by the retention of earnings. In addition, we believe this metric is used by investors because it provides a basis for comparison with other companies in our industry that also report a similar measure.
Net Investment Income on Float
Insurance float is an important aspect of our property and casualty reinsurance operation. In an insurance or reinsurance operation, float arises because premiums and proceeds associated with deposit accounted reinsurance contracts are collected before losses are paid. In some instances, the interval between premium receipts and loss payments can extend over many years. During this time interval, insurance and reinsurance companies invest the premiums received and generate investment returns. Although float can be calculated using numbers determined under U.S. GAAP, float is a non-GAAP financial measure and, therefore, there is no comparable U.S. GAAP measure.
Return on Beginning Shareholders' Equity
Return on beginning shareholders' equity as presented is a non-GAAP financial measure. Return on beginning shareholders' equity is calculated by dividing net income by the beginning shareholders' equity attributable to shareholders and is a commonly used calculation to measure profitability. For purposes of this calculation, we add back the impact of subscriptions receivable to shareholders' equity attributable to shareholders as of December 31, 2011. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we have also adjusted the beginning shareholders' equity for the impact of the issuance of shares in our IPO on a weighted average basis. These adjustments lower the stated returns on beginning shareholders' equity.
