Management Commentary
Chief Executive Officer Douglas Dirks commented: “During the second quarter we delivered an 8.9% annualized return on adjusted equity, a terrific result given the disruption being experienced throughout the U.S. attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although our operating results were solid for the second quarter, our top line was adversely impacted by a decrease in new business premium, a reduction in estimated final audit premium and additional, but moderating, premium-reducing midterm endorsements.
New business writings were down sharply in April and May, driven by lower submission volume, but rebounded nicely in June. For June, new business submissions were up 5% and new policies bound were up 14%, each year-over-year. We are hopeful that this is a strong sign that our targeted businesses have successfully reopened and are resuming their operations, and that the significant investments we have made in delivering a superior customer experience for our agents and insureds are contributing to growth in our business in an unprecedentedly challenging time. Notably, the positive results we observed in June have not yet been observed in California, although the year-over-year changes in submissions, new policies bound and bound premium in California were less negatively impacted in June than in the first two months of the quarter.”
Mr. Dirks continued, “Our balance sheet and income statement were each favorably impacted by $120 million of pretax investment gains arising during the quarter, thanks to the strong recovery in the financial markets. We were also very successful in terms of managing our capital. During the quarter we repurchased $31 million of our common stock and, year-to-date, we have returned $92 million to our shareholders through share repurchases and regular quarterly dividends. Our balance sheet and capital position remain strong and supportive of our aggressive business objectives.”
The Company has been fully functional since we closed all of our buildings to employees and the general public on March 20, 2020, and we have remained in work-from-home mode in order to protect the safety and well-being of our employees, their families and our stakeholders.”
Summary of Second Quarter 2020 Operating Results
(All comparisons vs. second quarter 2019, unless noted otherwise).
Gross premiums written were $140.2 million, a decrease of 21%. The decrease was primarily due to declines in new business writings, particularly in California, a reduction in estimated final audit premiums and processed premium-reducing midterm endorsements. Net premiums earned were $151.5 million, a decrease of 14% year-over-year.
Losses and loss adjustment expenses were $73.1 million, a decrease of 16%. The Company recognized $23.5 million of favorable prior year loss reserve development on voluntary business during the current period versus $24.0 million of favorable prior year loss reserve development a year ago.
Commission expenses were $19.2 million, a decrease of 19%. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in earned premiums.
Underwriting and general and administrative expenses were $44.8 million, an increase of 2%. The increase was largely the result of higher premium taxes, assessments and insurance licensing fees, partially offset by lower information technology expenses.
Net investment income was $19.9 million, a decrease of 7%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the amortization of bond premiums associated with the Company’s residential mortgage-backed securities, which resulted from an acceleration in near-term mortgage loan prepayment speed assumptions.
Income tax expense was $14.7 million (20% effective rate) versus $9.0 million (18% effective rate). The increase in the effective rate was due primarily to having a higher proportion of fully taxable income in the current period versus the proportion of fully taxable income a year ago.
The Company’s book value per share of $38.93 and book value per share including the Deferred Gain of $43.43 increased by 13% and 11% during the second quarter of 2020, respectively, each computed after taking into account dividends declared. These measures were favorably impacted during the current period by $25.4 million of net after tax unrealized gains arising from equity securities and other investments (which are reflected on the income statement) and $69.3 million of after tax unrealized gains arising from fixed maturity securities (which are reflected on the balance sheet).

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP
The information in this press release should be read in conjunction with the Financial Supplement that is attached to this press release and is available on our website.
Within this earnings release we present various financial measures, some of which are “Non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G pursuant to Section 401 of the Sarbanes – Oxley Act of 2002. A description of these Non-GAAP financial measures, as well as a reconciliation of such Non-GAAP measures to our most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the attached Financial Supplement. Management believes that these Non-GAAP measures are important to the Company’s investors, analysts and other interested parties who benefit from having an objective and consistent basis for comparison with other companies within our industry. Management further believes that these measures are more relevant than comparable GAAP measures in evaluating our financial performance.
