United Insurance Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: UIHC) (UPC Insurance or the Company), a property and casualty insurance holding company, announced today the completion of a reorganization plan to consolidate its four Florida domiciled insurance carriers into two, creating a more efficient operating structure going forward.

Reorganization

Effective May 31, 2022, the Company merged Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. into United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (United) with United being the surviving entity. Effective June 1, 2022, the Company merged Journey Insurance Company (Journey) into American Coastal Insurance Company with American Coastal Insurance Company being the surviving entity. As part of the merger, $30 million of Journey’s capital was redistributed to United.

Current Quarter Losses Incurred

The Company estimates current year catastrophe losses incurred for the second quarter ending June 30, 2022 of approximately $21 million before income taxes (approximately $17 million after tax), net of expected reinsurance recoveries. The Company estimates adverse development on prior year losses incurred for the second quarter ending June 30, 2022 of approximately $8 million before income taxes (approximately $6 million after tax), net of expected reinsurance recoveries.

Valuation Allowance

The Company’s cumulative loss position resulted in the need for a valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. UPC Insurance estimates the valuation allowance for the second quarter ending June 30, 2022, to be approximately $59 million which will decrease net earnings by approximately $44 million.

UPC Insurance expects to release its financial results for second quarter ended June 30, 2022, on Monday, August 8, 2022 after the close of the market and will conduct its quarterly conference call to discuss those results and review the outlook for the Company at 5:00 p.m. ET on Monday, August 8, 2022.
