Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis of Financial Condition And
Results of Operations
Liquidity. It is anticipated that the Company will continue to be able to
generate sufficient funds from operations to meet current liquidity needs.
Premiums generated by the Company's reinsurance business combined with
investment earnings plus proceeds from the sale of Shares will continue to be
the principal sources of funds for investment by the Company. Such funds will be
available to meet the Company's liquidity requirements. No capital expenditures
are expected in the forseeable future.
Capital Resources. During the quarter ended September 30, 1997, 8 new series of
Shares were added bringing the total number of series issued and outstanding to
279 as of the end of the quarter. As of September 30, 1997, the share capital of
the Company was $2,292,500 (compared with $2,105,000 as of December 31, 1996)
comprised of paid in capital with respect to the Common Stock of $200,000 and
paid in capital with respect to Participating Shares of $2,092,500 (compared
with $1,905,000 as of December 31, 1996). In addition, the Company had surplus
from retained earnings in the amount of $16,471,791 as of September 30, 1997
compared with $14,913,053 as of December 31, 1996.
Results of Operations. During the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Company
had net income of $2,117,920, compared with net income of $1,462,912 for the
quarter ended September 30, 1996. For the nine month period ended September 30,
1997, the Company had net income of $5,755,468 compared with net income of
$4,764,083 for the corresponding period in 1996. As discussed below, the
increase in net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 compared to the
corresponding period of 1996 is attributable to improved investment performance
which offset a reduction in underwriting income. The increase in net income for
the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 compared to the corresponding
period in 1996 is due to increases in both underwriting and investment income.
Premiums earned increased to $11,644,930 during the quarter ended September 30,
1997 compared to $9,269,071 for the corresponding period in 1996. Expenses
incurred during the quarter ended September 30, 1997 were $11,592,141 compared
to $8,879,845 for the corresponding quarter of 1996. Net underwriting income for
the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $52,789 compared to $389,226 for the
corresponding period in 1996. This decrease in net underwriting income was in
part attributable to an increase in the ratio of losses incurred to premiums
earned for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 to 72.5% from 68.7% for the
corresponding period in 1996.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, the Company had earned
premiums of $33,231,297 compared to $26,278,784 for the corresponding period of
1996. Expenses incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 1997
were $31,464,628 compared to $24,978,817 for the corresponding period in 1996.
Net underwriting income for the Company was $1,766,669 for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997 compared to $1,299,967 for the corresponding period in
1996. The loss ratio for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 was
67.5%, compared to 67.4% for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996.
Investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $2,125,131
compared to $1,073,686 for the corresponding period of 1996. This increase was
largely attributable to an increase in gains realized on the sale of investments
which offset a reduction in interest income. Investment income for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 was $3,988,799 compared to $3,464,116 for
the corresponding period of 1996. During the quarter ended September 30, 1997,
the Company realised gains on the sale of investment securities of $802,776,
compared to losses of $622,769 during the corresponding period of 1996. As of
September 30, 1997, the Company had net unrealized appreciation of $731,410 on
its investments compared to unrealized appreciation of $543,521 as of December
31, 1996.
For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Company had interest income of
$1,322,355 compared to $1,696,455 for the corresponding period of 1996. For the
nine month period ended September 30, 1997, the Company had interest income of
$3,797,281 compared to $4,055,783 for the corresponding period of 1996. These
decreases were largely attributable to reductions in portfolio yields and coupon
rates on invested assets which were partially offset by an increase in funds
available for investment.
