FEDNAT HOLDING COMPANY REPORTS
FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2018 RESULTS

Sunrise, Florida, February 27, 2019
- FedNat Holding Company (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: FNHC) today reported results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

Q4 2018 highlights (as measured against the same three-month period last year, except where noted):
Net loss of $9.3 million or $0.73 per diluted share, including $23.7 million of pre-tax claims, net, from Hurricane Michael and other severe weather events.
Net loss of $5.5 million or $0.43 per diluted share, excluding investment losses of $5.1 million, pre-tax.
Gross written premiums of $127.6 million.
4.1% increase in net premiums earned to $91.1 million, with Homeowners up 11.1%.
Quarter-end Florida homeowners’ in-force policies of approximately 247,000.
45.5% increase in non-Florida homeowners in-force policies to approximately 44,000.
During 2018, decreased 105 positions representing over $6.0 million in annual savings as a result of management's initiatives to maximize operational efficiencies.
Book value per share decreased 3.5% to $16.84 as compared to $17.45 as of September 30, 2018, due to the impact of Hurricane Michael.
Book value per share excluding accumulated other comprehensive income increased 6.0% to $17.13 as of December 31, 2018 from $16.16 as of December 31, 2017.

Mr. Michael H. Braun, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said “In 2018, we continued to make excellent progress in strengthening our underwriting profitability, controlling our expense structure and positioning our core Homeowners business for growth and further diversification.  We generated a solid increase in earnings for the year despite the fourth quarter impact of severe weather events, including Hurricane Michael, a major storm that affected many of our policy holders in Florida’s Panhandle area. Our thoughts go out to all those individuals that were impacted by the recent weather events and have deployed the appropriate resources to help our policyholders in their time of need. Excluding the impact of net retained losses related to weather and the continued wind down of our non-core auto and commercial general liability business lines, our fourth quarter performance was strong. Our core Homeowners line continued to show improvement in non-catastrophe underwriting profitability and a decrease in our attritional loss ratio. We continue to expand our non-Florida homeowners business as gross premiums earned grew 49% compared to last year’s fourth quarter.  In looking at the full year performance, our prudent underwriting and exposure management resulted in a significant cost savings from our reinsurance program along with other initiatives that resulted in greater operating efficiencies. The progress we made on our growth objectives position us for long term, sustainable earnings growth. “
 
Mr. Braun added, “Adding to our excitement about our growth opportunity is the definitive agreement to acquire the insurance operations of 1347 Property Insurance Holding, Inc., announced earlier this week.  This acquisition is a great strategic and financial fit for FedNat, accelerating our geographic diversification while delivering immediate earnings accretion and attractive cost synergies. We believe that the combination of these quality homeowners insurers will help enhance value for FedNat shareholders.”

Consolidated

Net loss of $9.3 million or $0.73 per diluted share during the fourth quarter of 2018, as compared to net income of $6.3 million or $0.48 per diluted share during the fourth quarter of 2017. The fourth quarter was significantly impacted by $23.7 million of additional losses related to Hurricane Michael and other severe weather events during the period.
Compared to September 30, 2018, book value per share decreased $0.61 to $16.84 at December 31, 2018. The increase was predominantly driven by a net loss of $0.73 per share, as noted above, and dividends declared of $0.08 per share, partially offset by a decrease in our accumulated other comprehensive loss of $0.17 per share.

Revenues

Total revenue decreased $5.4 million or 5.2%, to $96.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared with $101.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily driven by $5.4 million lower net earned premiums from the non-core lines of business we are exiting, investment losses of $5.1 million and lower brokerage income offset by higher net premiums earned in Homeowners as a result of decreased reinsurance spend for the three months ended December 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.
With continued focus on profitability and underwriting exposure, gross written premiums decreased $6.3 million, or 4.7%, to $127.6 million in the quarter, compared with $133.9 million for the same three-month period last year. The decrease in
