United Insurance Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:UIHC) (UPC Insurance or the Company), a property and casualty insurance holding company, today announced estimated net retained catastrophe losses incurred during the second quarter ending June 30, 2017 of approximately $20 million before income taxes (approximately $12.6 million after tax). The Company's second quarter catastrophe losses included claims from a series of hail, wind and other severe convective storm events primarily in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas. UPC Insurance estimates it has now met the $30 million retention under its catastrophe aggregate reinsurance program, which means the next $30 million of catastrophe losses, other than named windstorms or earthquakes, incurred during the remainder of 2017 will be ceded to third party reinsurers up to the $60 million exhaustion point of its catastrophe aggregate reinsurance program.
Company Announces Merger Related Expenses
In addition to the catastrophe losses described above, the Company also incurred during the second quarter approximately $7 million of nonrecurring professional fee expenses from its merger with American Coastal Holding Company, which was completed on April 3rd, 2017.
