OXBRW Oxbridge Re Holdings Ltd

Oxbridge Re Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: OXBR), (the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries which is engaged in the business of tokenized Real-World Assets (“RWAs”) initially in the form of tokenized reinsurance securities, and reinsurance solutions to property and casualty insurers in the Gulf Coast region of the United States, reported its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

“Our stable performance persisted into the second quarter of 2024, with no losses incurred,” stated Jay Madhu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Oxbridge Re Holdings.

“Following Delta CatRe’s targeted 42% payout last year, which was successfully exceeded at 49%, we are pleased to announce the completion of EpsilonCat Re private placement of approximately $2.8 million in tokenized securities within our RWA/Web3-focused subsidiary, SurancePlus Inc. This alternative investment leverages key aspects of blockchain technology to create a well-designed digital security, issued on the Avalanche blockchain,” Mr. Madhu continued. “Provided there are no losses from our reinsurance contracts, investors in EpsilonCat Re tokenized securities can expect an estimated annual return of 42%.

We also recently announced a strategic partnership with Zoniqx, which has issued over $4 billion in assets on-chain to date. SurancePlus is now a well-capitalized business with substantial growth potential for our shareholders. We are proud of this accomplishment and look forward to this exciting new entity diversifying and accelerating our growth in the RWA space in the coming years.”

“Looking ahead, with a strong balance sheet, no debt, and a well-diversified business from our recent transactions, we remain highly confident in our future ability to deliver shareholder value,” concluded Jay Madhu.

Financial Performance

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated a net loss of $821,000 or $(0.14) per basic and diluted common share compared to net loss of $85,000 or ($0.01) per basic and diluted common share in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease is due primarily negative change in the fair value of equity securities and other investments during the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated a net loss of $1.73 million or ($0.29) per basic and diluted common share compared to a net profit of $57,000 or $0.01 basic and diluted common share for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The worsened results were primarily due to lower total revenues driven by the increase in unrealized losses on other investment and equity securities.

Net premiums earned for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $564,000 compared to $183,000 in the same prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 net premiums earned were $1.1 million compared to $183,000 in the prior year. The increases are primarily due to the prior periods recognizing only one month of premiums because of premium acceleration on the reinsurance contracts in force. In contrast, the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024, recognized a full three and six months of premiums, respectively.

There were no losses incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

Total expenses were $628,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $697,000 for the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 total expenses were $1.17 million compared to $1.1 million in the prior year. The increase was due to higher policy and acquisition costs when compared to the prior year.

At June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and cash equivalents were $3.98 million compared to $3.7 million at December 31, 2023.

Financial Ratios

Loss Ratio. The loss ratio, which measures underwriting profitability, is the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred to net premiums earned. The loss ratio was 0% for the period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 due to no loss or loss adjustment expenses in either period.

Acquisition Cost Ratio. The acquisition cost ratio, which measures operational efficiency and compares policy acquisition costs with net premiums earned, increased marginally to 11.0% for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 from 10.9% for the same period last year.

Expense Ratio. The expense ratio, which measures operating performance, compares policy acquisition costs and general and administrative expenses with net premiums earned. The expense ratio decreased to 105.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from 601.6% in the prior year due to the higher levels of premium earned during the period.

Combined ratio. The combined ratio, which is used to measure underwriting performance, is the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. The combined ratio decreased to 105.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from 601.6% due to the higher levels of premium earned during the period.
