    “As we exited 2020, the Palomar team felt we had considerable momentum in our business; the strong growth in the first quarter of 2021 confirmed this belief. During the quarter we generated gross written premium growth of 45% while also executing upon new and existing underwriting actions that we believe will translate into attractive risk adjusted returns and earnings predictability,” commented Mac Armstrong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our strong top line results were led by our earthquake products, which in the case of the commercial offerings grew 96% year-over-year and 25% in the case of our Residential Earthquake offerings. Additionally, new products continued to gather momentum and grow at exceptional rates; most notably, our Inland Marine products grew 315% year-over-year. The traction we gained across our entire portfolio continues to validate our specialty insurance offerings. Lastly, our E&S carrier, Palomar Excess and Surplus Insurance Company, better known as PESIC, grew rapidly, approaching $100 million in annualized gross written premiums in just its second full quarter of operation. PESIC continues to provide opportunities to extend the reach of our existing products and expand our addressable market.”

    Mr. Armstrong continued, “In addition to our focus on delivering strong top-line growth, we also started 2021 acutely focused on generating consistent earnings. Beyond underwriting changes, rate increases and winding-down certain unprofitable segments of the business, we made notable enhancements to our robust risk transfer strategy. Specifically, we successfully placed $25 million of aggregate excess of loss reinsurance limit during the quarter. The net effect of this new reinsurance facility is that it puts a floor on our operating results should we experience severe catastrophe activity levels like those in 2020. While we aim to grow and capture an increasing share of our significant market opportunity, we must also prudently protect our balance sheet and earnings. The first quarter is a stellar demonstration of this approach. Looking ahead, we believe we have made the necessary adjustments to position the Company for continued success and we are excited about the multiple avenues for profitable growth in 2021 and beyond.”

    Underwriting Results
    Gross written premiums increased 44.9% to $103.6 million compared to $71.5 million in the first quarter of 2020, while net earned premiums increased 35.2% compared to the prior year’s first quarter. During the quarter, Winter Storm Uri (“Uri”) caused the Company to incur additional reinsurance charges related to the reinstatement of its reinsurance program. For the first half of 2021, Uri will result in a net underwriting loss of approximately $1.0 million comprised of approximately $4.0 million of additional reinsurance expense in the first quarter of 2021 and similar additional reinsurance expense in the second quarter of 2021 partially offset by negative net losses in the first quarter of 2021.

    Losses and loss adjustment expenses for the first quarter were negative $4.4 million due to attritional losses of $5.2 million offset by $2.4 million of favorable prior year development on 2020 catastrophe losses and reinsurance recoveries. The loss ratio for the quarter was negative 9.4%, including an attritional loss ratio of 11.1%, compared to a loss ratio of 5.4% during the same period last year comprised entirely of attritional losses. Non-catastrophe losses increased mainly due to growth of lines of business subject to attritional losses such as Specialty Homeowners, Flood, and Inland Marine.

    Underwriting income(1) was $18.6 million resulting in a combined ratio of 60.4% compared to underwriting income of $12.7 million and a combined ratio of 63.6% during the same period last year. The first quarter of 2021 results include certain expenses related to the Company’s transactions and stock offerings, stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, and catastrophe bond issuances. The first quarter of 2020 results include certain expenses related to the Company’s transactions and stock offerings and stock-based compensation. Without these items, the Company’s adjusted combined ratio(1) was 53.3% in the first quarter compared to 61.6% during the same period last year.

    Investment Results
    Net investment income increased by 9.0% to $2.2 million compared to $2.0 million in the prior year’s first quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to a higher average balance of investments held during the three months ended March 31, 2021, offset by lower yields on invested assets. Funds are generally invested conservatively in high quality securities, including government agency, asset and mortgage-backed securities, municipal and corporate bonds with an average credit quality of "A1/A". The weighted average duration of the fixed-maturity investment portfolio, including cash equivalents, was 3.97 years at March 31, 2021. Cash and invested assets totaled $436.7 million at March 31, 2021. During the current year first quarter, the Company recognized realized and unrealized losses of $739 thousand due to unrealized losses on fixed income based equity securities as compared to realized and unrealized gains of $440 thousand gain in last year’s first quarter.

    Tax Rate
    The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 17.3% compared to 22.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. For the current quarter, the Company’s income tax rate differed from the statutory rate due to the tax impact of the permanent component of employee stock option exercises.

    Stockholders’ Equity and Returns
    Stockholders' equity was $376.4 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $363.7 million at December 31, 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s annualized return on equity(1) was 18.0% compared to 19.7% for the same period last year while annualized adjusted return on equity was 20.8% compared to 20.6% for the same period last year.

    Full Year 2021 Outlook
    For the full year 2021, the Company expects to achieve adjusted net income of $64 million to $69 million, which considers the impact of Winter Storm Uri.

    Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income excluding the impact of certain items that may not be indicative of underlying business trends, operating results, or future outlook, net of tax impact. Palomar calculates the tax impact only on adjustments which would be included in calculating the Company’s income tax expense using the estimated tax rate at which the company received a deduction for these adjustments. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of net income calculated in accordance with GAAP to adjusted net income.

    Return on equity is net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period.

    Adjusted return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of return on equity calculated using unadjusted GAAP numbers to adjusted return on equity.

    Loss ratio, expressed as a percentage, is the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expenses, to net earned premiums.

    Expense ratio, expressed as a percentage, is the ratio of acquisition and other underwriting expenses, net of commission and other income to net earned premiums.

    Combined ratio is defined as the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. A combined ratio under 100% generally indicates an underwriting profit. A combined ratio over 100% generally indicates an underwriting loss.

    Adjusted combined ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio calculated excluding the impact of certain items that may not be indicative of underlying business trends, operating results, or future outlook.

    Diluted adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period, reflecting the dilution which could occur if equity-based awards are converted into common share equivalents as calculated using the treasury stock method. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of diluted earnings per share calculated in accordance with GAAP to diluted adjusted earnings per share.

    Catastrophe loss ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as the ratio of catastrophe losses to net earned premiums. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of loss ratio calculated using unadjusted GAAP numbers to catastrophe loss ratio.
