PEMBROKE, Bermuda--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.

Operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders was $176.6 million or $3.92 per diluted common share for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $155.5 million or $2.98, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012. The Company reported an annualized return on average common equity of 24.3% and an annualized operating return on average common equity of 22.5% in the first quarter of 2013, compared to 25.6% and 19.7%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2012. Book value per common share increased $2.93, or 4.3%, in the first quarter of 2013 to $71.07, compared to a 5.8% increase in the first quarter of 2012. Tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends increased $3.22, or 4.8%, in the first quarter of 2013, compared to a 6.3% increase in the first quarter of 2012.

See Comments on Regulation G for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures.

Neill A. Currie, CEO, commented: “We enjoyed strong first quarter results, with an annualized operating ROE of 22.5% and 4.8% growth in tangible book value per share plus dividends for the quarter. Our results reflect strong underwriting profits, principally driven by our high-quality portfolio, the absence of significant catastrophe losses in the quarter, and solid total returns in our investment portfolio.”

Mr. Currie added: “We are working with our customers to meet their needs for the upcoming renewal period. Our long-standing customer relationships, experienced underwriting team and superior capital management put us in a strong position to construct an attractive portfolio of risks during this period."

FIRST QUARTER 2013 HIGHLIGHTS (1)

  • Underwriting income of $173.0 million and a combined ratio of 36.2%, compared to $196.6 million and 29.4%, respectively. The decrease in underwriting income was primarily driven by an $11.7 million increase in net claims and claim expenses as a result of lower favorable development occurring during the quarter and a $7.4 million decrease in net premiums earned due to a combination of lower gross premiums written and an increase in ceded premiums written principally within the Company's catastrophe unit, as discussed below.
  • Gross premiums written decreased $28.7 million, or 4.3%, to $635.4 million with the decrease being driven by the Company's catastrophe and specialty units, and partially offset by growth in the Company's Lloyd's segment.
  • Total investment income of $51.4 million, which includes the sum of net investment income, net realized and unrealized gains on investments and net other-than-temporary impairments, compared to $113.7 million. The decrease was primarily driven by lower total returns in the Company's fixed maturity investment portfolio, combined with lower returns in the Company's portfolio of other investments, principally driven by the Company's private equity investments.
  • Other income improved $46.1 million to income of $7.0 million, compared to a loss of $39.1 million, primarily due to $8.7 million of income in the Company's weather and energy risk management operations, compared to a loss of $35.5 million from such operations as a result of unusually warm weather experienced in parts of the United Kingdom and certain parts of the United States during the first quarter of 2012.

Underwriting Results by Segment (1)

Reinsurance Segment

Gross premiums written in the Reinsurance segment were $561.1 million, a decrease of $48.6 million, or 8.0%, comprised of a $30.4 million decrease in the Company's catastrophe unit reflecting the non-renewal or renewal at lower rates for a number of contracts during the January 2013 renewals and an $18.2 million decrease in the Company's specialty unit, primarily due to the timing of certain multi-year contracts in the comparative quarter.

Managed catastrophe premiums totaled $529.7 million, a decrease of $29.3 million, or 5.2%, primarily driven by the reduction in gross premiums written in the catastrophe unit discussed above. The Company's managed catastrophe premiums are prone to significant volatility due to the timing of contract inception and also due to the business being characterized by a relatively small number of relatively large transactions.

The Reinsurance segment generated underwriting income of $168.3 million and a combined ratio of 27.9%, compared to $194.1 million and 23.5%, respectively, primarily as a result of a $20.4 million decrease in net premiums earned due to a decrease in gross premiums written, as discussed above, combined with an increase in ceded premiums written reflecting the inception of several new contracts and the external cession of business in Upsilon Reinsurance II Ltd., a managed joint venture, and a $5.1 million increase in net claims and claim expenses principally due to lower favorable development.

The Reinsurance segment experienced $33.6 million of favorable development on prior years reserves, compared to $46.8 million, including $18.5 million and $15.2 million of favorable development in the catastrophe and specialty units, respectively. Favorable development on prior years reserves within the catastrophe unit was primarily due to a number of relatively small reductions in estimated ultimate losses on prior period events. The specialty unit experienced prior accident years favorable development of $15.2 million principally due to the Company's annual actuarial assumption review which resulted in net reductions to prior accident years reserves of $10.4 million.

Lloyd's Segment

Gross premiums written in the Lloyd's segment were $74.3 million, an increase of $19.5 million, or 35.5%, primarily due to continued organic growth within the segment. The Lloyd's segment generated underwriting income of $4.2 million and a combined ratio of 89.0%, compared to underwriting income of $1.1 million and a combined ratio of 95.6%, respectively. The increase in underwriting income in the Lloyd's segment reflects the continued growth in gross premiums written noted above, partially offset by an increase in net claims and claims expenses of $5.5 million, primarily due to attritional loss activity.

Other Items (1)

  • During the first quarter of 2013, the Company repurchased 1.4 million common shares in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $111.3 million and at an average share price of $81.29.
  • Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests of $38.6 million decreased from $53.6 million, primarily impacted by a decrease in profitability of DaVinciRe, partially offset by a decrease in the Company's ownership percentage in DaVinciRe from 34.7% at March 31, 2012 to 32.9% at March 31, 2013.
  • During January 2013, DaVinciRe redeemed shares from certain DaVinciRe shareholders, including the Company, while certain other existing DaVinciRe shareholders purchased additional shares in DaVinciRe. The net redemption as a result of these transactions was $150.0 million. The Company's ownership in DaVinciRe was 32.9% at March 31, 2013.
  • The Company repaid the full $100.0 million of its outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes upon their scheduled maturity of February 15, 2013 using available cash and investments.

Comments on Regulation G

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this Press Release, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in this Press Release within the meaning of Regulation G. The Company has provided these financial measurements in previous investor communications and the Company's management believes that these measurements are important to investors and other interested persons, and that investors and such other persons benefit from having a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and for the comparison with other companies within the industry. These measures may not, however, be comparable to similarly titled measures used by companies outside of the insurance industry. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these non-GAAP measures in assessing the Company's overall financial performance.

The Company uses “operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” as a measure to evaluate the underlying fundamentals of its operations and believes it to be a useful measure of its corporate performance. “Operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” as used herein differs from “net income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders,” which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments and net other-than-temporary impairments. The Company's management believes that “operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” is useful to investors because it more accurately measures and predicts the Company's results of operations by removing the variability arising from fluctuations in the Company's fixed maturity investment portfolio and equity investments trading. The Company also uses “operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” to calculate “operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted” and “operating return on average common equity - annualized”. The following is a reconciliation of: 1) net income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders to operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders; 2) net income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted to operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted; and 3) return on average common equity - annualized to operating return on average common equity - annualized:

The Company has also included in this Press Release “managed catastrophe premiums”. “Managed catastrophe premiums” is defined as gross catastrophe premiums written by Renaissance Reinsurance and its related joint ventures. “Managed catastrophe premiums” differs from total catastrophe unit gross premiums written, which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, due to the inclusion of catastrophe premiums written on behalf of the Company's joint venture Top Layer Re, which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting and the inclusion of catastrophe premiums written on behalf of the Company's Lloyd's segment. The Company's management believes “managed catastrophe premiums” is useful to investors and other interested parties because it provides a measure of total catastrophe premiums, as applicable, assumed by the Company through its consolidated subsidiaries and related joint ventures.

The Company has also included in this Press Release “tangible book value per common share” and “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends”. “Tangible book value per common share” is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share; “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends” is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share, plus accumulated dividends. “Tangible book value per common share” differs from book value per common share, which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, due to the exclusion of goodwill and intangible assets per share. The Company's management believes “tangible book value per common share” and “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends” are useful to investors because they provide a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding the impact of goodwill and intangible assets.
