⁽¹⁾ In order to reconcile net loss to the core loss measure, we included the tax impact of all adjustments using the 21% corporate federal tax rate.

⁽²⁾ Core loss and core loss per diluted share, measures that are not based on GAAP, are reconciled above to net loss and net loss per diluted share, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release can be found in the "Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures" section, below.

“First, our thoughts are with all of the victims of the record-setting catastrophes this year, and our thanks to the many employees and partners that continue to serve our insureds," said Dan Peed, CEO of UPC Insurance.

"Year-to-date we have seen a record number of named storms in our geographic footprint. As an insurer that focuses on providing homeowners' insurance in hurricane-prone coastal areas, we experienced our largest ever quarterly losses due to these unprecedented storms.

Unfortunately, the losses attributable to the named storms masked numerous successes in the third quarter, including continued improvement in our core ex-hurricane earnings, increased rate earning through our portfolio, a decreased expense ratio, and accelerated rate increases on both the commercial and personal lines of our business.

As we conclude 2020 and move into the new year, we believe the tightening market conditions will not adversely affect our planned rate increases in both our commercial specialty and personal lines of our business. We remain optimistic that we will be well-positioned to reduce volatility through increased reinsurance cessions, while still achieving positive returns."

Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19), Financial Status and Outlook

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans and restrictions, self-imposed quarantine periods, state and local shelter-in-place orders, business and government shutdowns and social distancing, have caused and continue to cause material disruption to businesses and economies globally. In addition, global equity markets have experienced and continue to experience significant volatility and weakness.

The Company is committed to its employees, agents, customers and stockholders in its resolve to maintain a stable and secure business. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company was able to resume hiring activities, despite the limits on in-person interviews and on-boarding procedures resulting from COVID-related protocols. In addition, the Company has converted to virtual sales processes to enable our agents to continue their activities. The Company believes these activities, collectively, help ensure the health and safety of its employees through adherence to CDC, state and local government work guidelines.

The scope, severity and longevity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, as new information may continue to emerge concerning the actions governments may take to contain or mitigate the spread of the virus or address its impact on individuals, businesses and the economy. The Company did not incur material claims or significant disruptions to the business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company has not incurred any significant impact to its results of operations, financial position, liquidity or its ability to service its policyholders as of the date of this press release, with the exceptions of fluctuations in our investment portfolios due to the volatility of the equity securities markets. The Company reduced the size of its equity securities portfolio during the third quarter of 2020, which has reduced the impact of fluctuations in the market on the Company's financial condition. At this time, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the extent of the impact of the economic uncertainties on the financial results and condition of the Company in future periods, but the Company will continue to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and take reasonable measures to make sure customers continue to be served without interruption.

Quarterly Financial Results

Net loss attributable to the Company for the third quarter of 2020 was $74.1 million, or $1.73 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $28.3 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019. The increase in net loss was primarily due to an increase in the Company's loss and loss adjustment expenses (LAE) due to a higher frequency of catastrophe activity during the third quarter of 2020. The Company also experienced a decrease in unrealized gain on equity securities during the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019. The Company sold equity securities that were in an unrealized gain position during the third quarter of 2020, which resulted in realized gains of $24.0 million, but reduced the unrealized gain balance at quarter end.

The Company's total gross written premium increased by $48.6 million, or 15.3%, to $365.8 million for the third quarter of 2020, from $317.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, driven by rate increases in Florida and organic policy growth in new and renewal business generated in the Gulf and Southeast regions. The breakdown of the quarter-over-quarter changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by region and gross written premium by line of business are shown in the table below.

⁽¹⁾ "Gulf" is comprised of Hawaii, Louisiana and Texas; "Northeast" is comprised of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Rhode Island; and "Southeast" is comprised of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.

⁽²⁾ Assumed premium written for 2020 and 2019 primarily included commercial property business assumed from unaffiliated insurers.

Loss and LAE increased by $70.6 million, or 47.7%, to $218.7 million for the third quarter of 2020, from $148.1 million for the third quarter of 2019. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums increased 39.0 points to 115.8% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 76.8% for the third quarter of 2019. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, the Company's gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the third quarter of 2020 would have been 23.4%, a decrease of 1.5 points from 24.9% during the third quarter of 2019.

Policy acquisition costs decreased by $3.1 million, or 5.0%, to $58.7 million for the third quarter of 2020, from $61.8 million for the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to a decrease in assumed ceding commission expense, as a result of the decline in the Company's assumed line of business during the third quarter of 2020 which is offset by an increase in managing general agent commissions related to commercial premiums .

Operating and underwriting expenses increased by $2.3 million, or 18.9%, to $14.5 million for the third quarter of 2020, from $12.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to increased investments in technology, as well as increased agent-related expenses incurred during the quarter, which are based on our agent incentive program.

General and administrative expenses remained relatively flat, increasing by $0.1 million, or 0.5%, to $19.2 million for the third quarter of 2020, from $19.1 million for the third quarter of 2019.

Reinsurance Costs as a Percentage of Gross Earned Premium

Reinsurance costs as a percentage of gross earned premium in the third quarter of 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

	2020			2019
Non-at-Risk	(2.2)	%		(2.3)	%
Quota Share	(13.6)	%		(12.2)	%
All Other	(30.9)	%		(29.5)	%
Total Ceding Ratio	(46.7)	%		(44.0)	%

The increase in this ratio was driven by the terms of the Company's 2020-2021 catastrophe excess of loss agreement. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company's subsidiary, UPC Re, assumed losses causing the Company to reach the exhaustion point of the intercompany catastrophe excess of loss agreement. This resulted in an acceleration of recorded ceded unearned premium which did not occur in the third quarter of 2019. In addition, the Company experienced an increase in costs related to the quota share agreement due to increased gross premium written by the participating insurance subsidiaries in 2020.

Investment Portfolio Highlights

The Company's cash, restricted cash and investment holdings increased to $1.5 billion at September 30, 2020 from $1.3 billion at December 31, 2019. The Company's cash and investment holdings consist of investments in U.S. government and agency securities, corporate debt and 100% investment grade money market instruments. Fixed maturities represented approximately 93.2% of total investments at September 30, 2020, compared to 87.5% at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2020 our fixed maturity investments had a modified duration of 3.9 years, compared to 3.4 years at December 31, 2019. The Company's equity security investment holdings has decreased 68.7% from December 31, 2019, due to the sale of equity securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Book Value Analysis

Book value per common share decreased 9.8% from $11.69 at December 31, 2019, to $10.54 at September 30, 2020. Underlying book value per common share decreased 14.3% from $11.43 at December 31, 2019 to $9.80 at September 30, 2020. The decrease in the Company's book value per common share was due to a decrease in the Company's retained earnings as the result of net loss in the first nine months of 2020. As shown in the table below, removing the effect of AOCI further decreases the Company's book value per common share, as the Company experienced favorable market conditions for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

⁽¹⁾ Underlying book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure and is reconciled above to book value per common share, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release can be found in the "Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures" section, below.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes that investors' understanding of UPC Insurance's performance is enhanced by the Company's disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. The Company's methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Net income excluding the effects of amortization of intangible assets, realized gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities, net of tax (core income (loss)) is a non-GAAP measure which is computed by adding amortization, net of tax, to net income and subtracting realized gains (losses) on the Company's investment portfolio, net of tax, and unrealized gains (losses) on the Company's equity securities, net of tax, from net income. Amortization expense is related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired through mergers and therefore the expense does not arise through normal operations. Investment portfolio gains (losses) and unrealized equity security gains (losses) vary independent of the Company's operations. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income. The core income measure should not be considered a substitute for net income and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Core return on equity is a non-GAAP ratio calculated using non-GAAP measures. It is calculated by dividing the core income for the period by the average stockholders’ equity for the trailing twelve months (or one quarter of such average, in the case of quarterly periods). Core income is an after-tax non-GAAP measure that is calculated by excluding from net income the effect of non-cash amortization of intangible assets, unrealized gains or losses on the Company's equity security investments and net realized gains or losses on the Company's investment portfolio. In the opinion of the Company’s management, core income, core income per share and core return on equity are meaningful indicators to investors of the Company's underwriting and operating results, since the excluded items are not necessarily indicative of operating trends. Internally, the Company’s management uses core income, core income per share and core return on equity to evaluate performance against historical results and establish financial targets on a consolidated basis. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is return on equity. The core return on equity measure should not be considered a substitute for return on equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Combined ratio excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying combined ratio) is a non-GAAP measure, which is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year development from the combined ratio. The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors and it is used by management to highlight the trends in the Company's business that may be obscured by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development. Current year catastrophe losses cause the Company's loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year development is caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered as a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Net loss and LAE excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying loss and LAE) is a non-GAAP measure which is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development from net loss and LAE. The Company uses underlying loss and LAE figures to analyze the Company's loss trends that may be impacted by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development on the Company's reserves. As discussed previously, these two items can have a significant impact on the Company's loss trends in a given period. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE. The underlying loss and LAE measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (underlying book value per common share), is a non-GAAP measure which is computed by dividing common stockholders' equity after excluding accumulated other comprehensive income, by total common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding. The Company uses the trend in book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income, in conjunction with book value per common share to identify and analyze the change in net worth attributable to management efforts between periods. The Company believes the non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of interest rates that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and are generally driven by economic and financial factors which are not influenced by management. Book value per common share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income, should not be considered a substitute for book value per common share, and does not reflect the recorded net worth of the Company's business.
