HAMILTON, Bermuda - Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:  MHLD) (“Maiden” or “the Company”) today reported first quarter 2017 net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $20.5 million or $0.23 per diluted common share compared to net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $27.2 million or $0.35 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP operating earnings (1) were $22.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted common share compared with non-GAAP operating earnings of $28.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2016.

Commenting on the Company's results, Art Raschbaum, Chief Executive Officer of Maiden, said: “Notwithstanding a challenging operating environment, Maiden’s results improved significantly from the Company’s fourth quarter 2016 underwriting loss. While the aggregate combined ratio for the quarter was 100.9%, it reflects the impact of more conservative initial expected loss ratios for the AmTrust master quota share as well as higher than anticipated losses in the quarter from select casualty lines. Gross revenues increased by 6.9% across our two operating segments while investment income also reflected strong year-on-year growth of 16.1%. We believe that we are well positioned to continue to further strengthen returns for the balance of the year while continuing to implement new business initiatives across the Company.”

Results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017
Maiden reported first quarter 2017 net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $20.5 million or $0.23 per diluted common share compared to net income attributable to Maiden common shareholders of $27.2 million or $0.35 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2016. The non-GAAP operating earnings (1) were $22.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted common share compared with non-GAAP operating earnings of $28.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted common share in the first quarter of 2016.
 





In the first quarter of 2017, gross premiums written increased 6.9% to $923.4 million from $864.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. Gross premiums written in the Diversified Reinsurance segment totaled $332.0 million, an increase of 5.1% versus the first quarter of 2016 due to a combination of new business and growth from existing client relationships. In the AmTrust Reinsurance segment, gross premiums written were $591.4 million, an increase of 7.9% compared to $548.3 million in the first quarter of 2016.

Net premiums written totaled $900.5 million in the first quarter of 2017, an increase of 13.6% compared to the first quarter of 2016. Net premiums written increased in the first quarter due to premium growth in both operating segments, as well as a lower proportion of premiums ceded compared to the prior year period.  

Net premiums earned were $709.5 million, an increase of 15.2% compared to the first quarter of 2016.  In the Diversified Reinsurance segment, net premiums earned increased 17.2% to $201.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2016. The AmTrust Reinsurance segment net premiums earned were $507.6 million, up 14.4% compared to the first quarter of 2016. Maiden’s year-over-year increase in net premiums earned was due to a lower utilization of retrocessional capacity.

Net loss and loss adjustment expenses of $480.6 million were up 19.1% compared to the first quarter of 2016. The loss ratio (8) of 67.4% was higher than the 65.0% reported in the first quarter of 2016.
 
Commission and other acquisition expenses, increased 13.8% to $222.0 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to the first quarter of 2016. The expense ratio (11) decreased to 33.5% for the first quarter of 2017 compared with 33.9% in the same quarter last year. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2017 totaled $17.4 million, a 12.4% increase compared with $15.5 million in the first quarter of 2016. The general and administrative expense ratio (10) was 2.4% in the first quarter of 2017, compared to 2.5% in the first quarter of 2016.
 
The combined ratio (12) for the first quarter of 2017 totaled 100.9% compared with 98.9% in the first quarter of 2016. The Diversified Reinsurance segment combined ratio was 99.9% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 102.9% in the first quarter of 2016. The Diversified Reinsurance results in the first quarter last year were impacted by adverse development of U.S. commercial auto business, which was not a significant factor in the first quarter of 2017. The AmTrust Reinsurance segment combined ratio was 99.8% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 95.3% in the first quarter of 2016, partially due to a higher initial loss ratio on the master quota share.

Net investment income of $42.2 million in the first quarter of 2017 increased 16.1% compared to the first quarter of 2016. As of March 31, 2017, the average yield on the fixed income portfolio (excluding cash) is 3.29% with an average duration of 5.06 years. Cash and cash equivalents were $193.2 million at March 31, 2017 or $43.7 million higher than at year-end 2016.
  
Total assets increased 4.9% to $6.6 billion at March 31, 2017 compared to $6.3 billion at year-end 2016.   Shareholders' equity was $1.4 billion, up 0.7% compared to December 31, 2016. Book value per common share (4) was $12.19 at March 31, 2017 or 0.6% higher than at December 31, 2016.
  
During the first quarter of 2017, the Board of Directors declared dividends of $0.15 per common share, $0.515625 per Series A preference share and $0.445313 per Series C preference share.
