Universal Insurance Holdings Reports Fourth Quarter 2021 Results

  • 4Q21 direct premiums earned up 11.5%; FY21 up 14.4% driven by primary rate increases
  • 4Q21 diluted GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $(1.54), non-GAAP adjusted EPS1 of $(1.53) predominantly driven by inflationary trends
  • FY21 diluted GAAP EPS of $0.65, non-GAAP adjusted EPS1 of $0.61
  • Clovered.com, our digital agency subsidiary surpassed $40 million in placed premiums in 2021
  • 4Q21 completed private placement of $100 million senior unsecured notes

Universal Insurance Holdings (NYSE: UVE) (the “Company”) reported fourth quarter and full year 2021 results.

1 Excludes net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments as well as extraordinary reinstatement premiums and associated commissions (“non-GAAP adjusted EPS”). Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are provided in the attached tables.

“We ended the year with a record of approximately $1.7 billion of premiums in force and a return on average equity of 4.6%, despite the accelerated inflationary trends we announced on February 10th, which resulted in the Company increasing reserves,” said Stephen J. Donaghy, Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, Clovered.com, our digital agency subsidiary surpassed $40 million in placed premiums during 2021. The lion’s share of our approved rate filings for UPCIC in Florida over the past several quarters for new and renewal business are now effective. We continue to sharpen our pencils on our 2022 Florida primary rate filing in the coming months and are hitting the ground running on our reinsurance renewal, with over 77% of capacity on our first event All States tower already secured. We look forward to continuing to focus on resiliency through this cycle and are monitoring closely the actions in the Florida legislature in regards to several bills, including SB1728, SB1402 and SB186, amongst others.”

Non-GAAP adjusted EPS excludes net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, as well as extraordinary reinstatement premiums and associated commissions.

NM = Not Meaningful

Total revenue grew 7.2% for the quarter and 4.6% for the year, driven primarily by growth in net premiums earned from primary rate increases, partially offset, primarily by lower policies-in-force, and lower realized gains on the investment portfolio, and increased reinsurance costs. GAAP diluted EPS and non-GAAP adjusted EPS results for the quarter and the year benefited from continued primary rate increases earnings-in, but were predominantly impacted by strengthening of reserves due to inflationary trends and a reduction in realized gains on the investment portfolio when compared to the prior year period.

3 Expense ratio excludes interest expense.

Direct premiums earned were up 11.5% for the quarter, and 14.4% for the year, led by primary rate increases in Florida and other states, while policies-in-force declined 4.2% as a result of continuing to shape our underwriting risks.

On the expense side, the combined ratio increased 7.4 points for the quarter driven primarily by strengthening reserves for the full accident year 2021 as a result of inflationary pressures and increased reinsurance costs impact on the ratio. For the full year, the combined ratio improved 8.1 points as a result of decreased weather events in 2021, lower prior years’ adverse reserve development, and continued business expense management.

  • The expense ratio increased 50 basis points on a direct premiums earned basis for the quarter. For the year, the expense ratio improved 1.2 points on a direct premiums earned basis due to business expense management, including a reduction in agent commissions, advertising, and lower executive compensation, as well as primary rate increases impact on the ratio.
  • The net loss and loss adjustment expense ratio increased 6.6 points for the quarter, but improved 6.9 points for the year. Quarterly and full year drivers for 2021 include:
    • Core losses of $216.0 million for the quarter ($134.5 million in 4Q20) and $696.8 million for the year ($538.5 million in 2020) resulted in a 15.8 point increase on a direct premiums earned basis for the quarter and a 5.0 point increase for the year, primarily driven by accruing incremental reserves as a result of materials, labor, and social inflation. On a net basis, core losses increased 24.0 points for the quarter and 9.0 points for the year.
    • A 21.1 point net improvement for the quarter and a 14.9 point net improvement for the year related to weather events being more in line with plan.
    • Net prior years’ adverse reserve development of $36.5 million for the quarter ($23.4 million in 4Q20) and $54.5 million for the year ($58.3 million in 2020) resulted in a 3.7 point net increase for the quarter and a 1.0 point net improvement for the year. The net prior years’ adverse reserve development for the year was primarily driven by Non-CAT claims, and to a lesser extent Hurricane Irma related claims.

Net investment income increased 37.9% for the quarter, primarily due to higher levels of invested assets. For the full year, net investment income decreased 38.5% as well as a significant decline in realized gains for the quarter and full year. The declines are the result of the sale, and subsequent reinvestment at lower yields, of a majority of securities in the portfolio that were in an unrealized gain position in the third and fourth quarters of 2020 to recognize the fair value benefits in surplus. Unrealized losses for the quarter and for the full year were driven by market fluctuations in invested assets resulting in an unfavorable outcome for the quarter and the full year.

Capital Deployment

For the full year, the Company repurchased approximately 117 thousand shares at an aggregate cost of $1.6 million. The Company’s current share repurchase authorization program has $17.8 million remaining as of December 31, 2021 and runs through November 3, 2022.

During the fourth quarter the Board of Directors declared a quarterly regular and special cash dividend, together totaling 29 cents per share of common stock, which was paid on December 17, 2021, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 10, 2021. This marked more than 10 consecutive years declaring a fourth quarter special dividend. The 29 cents per share dividend consists of a regular quarterly cash dividend of 16 cents per share and a special cash dividend of 13 cents per share, bringing the total regular and special dividends declared in 2021 to 77 cents per share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including adjusted earnings per diluted share, which excludes the impact of the net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments as well as extraordinary reinstatement premiums and associated commissions. Extraordinary reinstatement premiums are not covered by reinstatement premium protection and attach just below the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (“FHCF”) reinsurance layer. Adjusted operating income excludes the impact of the net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, as well as interest expense and extraordinary reinstatement premiums and associated commissions. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance that excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). UVE management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. UVE management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze UVE’s business trends and to understand UVE’s performance. UVE’s management utilizes these non-GAAP financial measures as guides in long-term planning. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information regarding our key performance indicators, please refer to the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Key Performance Indicators” in our forthcoming Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “plan,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made. Such statements may include commentary on plans, products and lines of business, marketing arrangements, reinsurance programs and other business developments and assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, including those risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and supplemented in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Future results could differ materially from those described, and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. For further information regarding risk factors that could affect the Company’s operations and future results, refer to the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and the most recent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
