From ProSight CEO Larry Hannon:
"I am very proud of the strong results that our employees were able to produce in the third quarter and throughout 2019. Supported by our outstanding distribution partners, our ability to deliver a differentiated experience to our customers resulted in strong top-line growth across all customer segments and solid underwriting profitability for the quarter. We believe that our continued efforts to provide unique, niche specific multi-line coverages and services will enable us to achieve sustained profitability over the long-term, allowing us to deliver true value to our customers and shareholders."
Net income from continuing operations was $8.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $15.6 million, or $0.40 (5) per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in net income resulted from an increase in other expenses of $7.2 million, primarily due to non-recurring grants of restricted stock units in connection with the initial public offering. Adjusted operating income (1) was $13.8 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $15.3 million, or $0.39 (5) per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2018.
Total ongoing GWP (2) were $224.5 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $176.7 million for the third quarter of 2018, an increase of 27.1%. Ongoing GWP (2) growth was driven by strong growth within the Real Estate (+113.3%), Construction (+21.3%), and Consumer Services (+18.7%) customer segments. Other GWP (2) were $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $24.6 million for the third quarter of 2018, the decrease driven by the exit from the excess workers compensation niche. GWP including Other (2), increased 12.9% for the third quarter of 2019 when compared to the third quarter of 2018.
Underwriting income (1) was $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $7.9 million for the third quarter of 2018. The combined ratio for the third quarter of 2019 was 98.3%, compared to 95.8% for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in underwriting income (1) was due to an increase in the loss and LAE ratio, partially offset by a decrease in the expense ratio, as discussed below:
- The loss and LAE ratio was 62.8% for the third quarter of 2019, compared to 58.8% for the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the effect of the WAQS, the adjusted loss and LAE ratio (3) was 62.0% for the third quarter of 2019, compared to 59.2% for the third quarter of 2018. The adjusted loss and LAE ratio (3) for the third quarter of 2019 included unfavorable prior period reserve development of $3.9 million (1.9 percentage points) due to unfavorable development in general liability and commercial auto, partially offset by favorable development in workers compensation and all other. This compares to $1.4 million (0.8 percentage points) of favorable prior period reserve development in the third quarter of 2018. There were no catastrophe losses in either the third quarter of 2019 or 2018.
- The expense ratio was 35.5% for the third quarter of 2019, compared to 37.0% in the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the effect of the WAQS, the adjusted expense ratio (3) was 36.3% for the third quarter of 2019 compared to 36.6% in the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the WAQS, the policy acquisition expense ratio was 23.5% in the third quarter of 2019, compared to 23.2% in the third quarter of 2018 and general & administrative expense ratio was 12.8% in the third quarter of 2019 compared to 13.4% in the third quarter of 2018.
Net investment income increased by 20.9% to $17.0 million for the third quarter of 2019, from $14.0 million for the third quarter of 2018. The increase in net investment income was driven by an increase in the size of the investment portfolio. Total invested assets at book value were $2.1 billion at September 30, 2019, growth of 10.5%, from $1.9 billion at December 31, 2018. The net annualized yield on total cash and investments was 3.3% for the third quarter of 2019 and 3.2% for the third quarter of 2018. Realized investment gains for the third quarter of 2019 were $0.2 million, compared to realized investment gains of $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2018.
Total stockholders' equity was $530.6 million as of September 30, 2019, compared to $389.8 million as of December 31, 2018. Tangible stockholders' equity (6) was $501.4 million as of September 30, 2019, compared $360.6 million as of December 31, 2018. The increases in total stockholders' equity and tangible stockholders' equity (6) were driven by net unrealized gains on investment securities of $56.2 million, proceeds from common stock sold in initial public offering of $51.6 million, and net income of $30.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Fully diluted book value per share grew by 18.7% to $11.73 at September 30, 2019, compared to $9.88 (5) at December 31, 2018. Fully diluted tangible book value per share (6) increased by 21.3% to $11.09 at September 30, 2019, compared to $9.14 (5) at December 31, 2018.
(1). Adjusted operating income and Underwriting Income are non-GAAP measures. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures". |
(2). Total GWP for the third quarter of 2019 including Other were $227.2 million. Total GWP for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 including Other were $718.1 million. Other includes GWP from certain niches that are no longer part of our ongoing business. All GWP from exited niches are included in "Other" which consists of (i) primary and excess workers' compensation coverage for Self-Insured Groups (ii) niches exited prior to 2018, many with a concentration in commercial auto, (iii) fronting arrangements in which all premium written is ceded to a third party, (iv) participation in industry pools, and (v) emerging new business customer segments. |
(3). Adjusted loss and LAE ratio and adjusted expense ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. We define adjusted loss and LAE ratio and adjusted expense ratio as the corresponding ratio (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding the effects of the WAQS. We use these adjusted ratios as internal performance measures in the management of our operations because we believe they give our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Our adjusted loss and LAE ratio and adjusted expense ratio should not be viewed as substitutes for our loss and LAE ratio, expense ratio and combined ratio, respectively. |
(4). Adjusted operating return on equity is a non-GAAP measure Adjusted operating return on equity is adjusted operating income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders' equity during the period. |
(5). All per share amounts have been restated to give effect to the reorganization of ProSight on July 25, 2019. See "Reorganization". |
(6). Tangible stockholders' equity and fully diluted tangible book value per share are non-GAAP measures. Tangible stockholders' equity is total common stockholders' equity excluding the value of goodwill and other intangible assets. Fully diluted tangible book value per share is total common stockholders' equity excluding the after-tax value of goodwill and other intangible assets divided by the number of common shares outstanding, unvested restricted shares, and vested not issued shares. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures". |

(1). Net retention is the ratio of net written premiums to gross written premiums. |

(2). Underwriting income is a non-GAAP measure. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" |
|||||||||||||||||||
(3). Adjusted loss and LAE ratio, adjusted expense ratio and adjusted combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. We define adjusted loss and LAE ratio, adjusted expense ratio and adjusted combined ratio as the corresponding ratio (calculated in accordance with GAAP) excluding the effects of the WAQS. We use these adjusted ratios as internal performance measures in the management of our operations because we believe they give our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Our adjusted loss and LAE ratio, adjusted expense ratio and adjusted combined ratio should not be viewed as substitutes for our loss and LAE ratio, expense ratio and combined ratio, respectively. |

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
||||||||||||
(1). Underwriting income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is useful in evaluating our underwriting performance without regard to investment income. Underwriting income represents the pre-tax profitability of our insurance operations and is derived by subtracting losses and LAE and underwriting, acquisition and insurance expenses from net earned premiums. We use underwriting income as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives us and users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Underwriting income should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may calculate underwriting income differently. |
||||||||||||
Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 reconciles to underwriting income as follows: |

(2). Adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and underlying business performance, by excluding items that are not part of our underlying profitability drivers or likely to re-occur in the foreseeable future. Adjusted operating income should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for our net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate adjusted operating income differently. |

(1). Other Expense within the adjusted operating income includes non-recurring grants of restricted stock units in connection with the initial public offering and costs associated with the transition of our former Chief Executive Officer. |
||||||||||||
(3). Tangible stockholders' equity is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define tangible stockholders' equity as stockholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets. Our definition of tangible stockholders' equity may not be comparable to that of other companies, and it should not be viewed as a substitute for stockholders' equity calculated in accordance with GAAP. We use tangible stockholders' equity internally to evaluate the strength of our balance sheet and to compare returns relative to this measure. |
