Raises $17 million of Capital to Support Insurance Segment Growth Activities
Declares Quarterly Distribution of C$0.02 Per Common Share in the Third Quarter of 2023, Marking the Seventeenth Consecutive Quarter of a Shareholder Distribution
TORONTO, Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mount Logan Capital Inc. MLC (the "Company" or "Mount Logan") announced today its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. All amounts are stated in United States dollars, unless otherwise indicated. The financial results have been adjusted for the adoption of IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts ("IFRS 17") which became effective January 1, 2023. IFRS 17 is effective for years beginning as of January 1, 2023, and has been applied retrospectively with a transition date of January 1, 2022. IFRS 17 does not impact the underlying economics of the business, nor does it impact the Company's business strategies.
Third Quarter 2023 Highlights
- On July 5, 2023, completed the previously announced transaction with Ovation Partners, LP (the "Ovation Advisor") for the management of Ovation's Alternative Income platform. The Company completed the transactions under its membership interest and asset purchase agreement (the "Ovation Purchase Agreement") with the Ovation Advisor, a Texas-based specialty-finance focused asset manager, pursuant to which the Company acquired (collectively, the "Ovation Acquisition") all of the membership interests of Ovation and certain assets from the Ovation Advisor, pursuant to which ML Management has become the investment advisor to the platform. The Alternative Income platform is focused on investments in commercial lending, real estate lending, consumer finance and litigation finance.
- Basic Earnings per share ("EPS") was $0.62 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $0.65 from $(0.03) for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in EPS across basic and adjusted presentation, as discussed below, resulted primarily from a change in net insurance finance expense driven by an increase in market interest rates in the quarter.
- Adjusted basic EPS was $0.68 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $0.63 from $0.05 for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
- Management fees for the asset management segment were a record $2.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $0.4 million from the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $1.3 million higher when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase year-over-year resulted from the Ovation Acquisition in respect of which the Company receives a management fee and incentive fees that commenced in the second quarter of 2023.
- Total net investment income for the insurance segment of the Company was $26.2 million, an increase of $4.9 million as compared to $21.3 million for the second quarter of 2023 and an increase of $10.7 million as compared to $15.5 million for the third quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily due to the increase in interest rates and the increase in Ability's bond portfolio.
- Investment contract liabilities, including MYGA products, had a carrying value1 of $168.1 million as of quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $9.4 million when compared to a carrying value1 of $158.7 million as of the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The increase of investment contract liabilities primarily through premium growth through the reinsurance of MYGA helps increase the Company's total working capital and contributes to higher total assets in the insurance segment. As of September 30, 2023, the $250 million of MYGA coinsurance agreements have been satisfied.
- Insurance segment raised $17 million of capital during the third quarter across a $12 million surplus note issuance at Ability Insurance Company and an additional $5 million contribution from a Lind Bridge note issuance. The capital raises help drive growth for the insurance segment across assets and progress us towards our long-term vision for the business.
Subsequent Events
- Declared a shareholder distribution in the amount of C$0.02 per common share for the fourth quarter of 2023, payable on November 30, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 20, 2023. This cash dividend marks the seventeenth consecutive quarter of the Company issuing a C$0.02 distribution to its shareholders. This dividend is designated by the Company as an eligible dividend for the purpose of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any similar provincial or territorial legislation. An enhanced dividend tax credit applies to eligible dividends paid to Canadian residents.
Management Commentary
- Ted Goldthorpe, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Mount Logan stated, "Following the close of the third quarter of 2023, we continue to see strong earnings momentum across both the asset management and insurance solutions segments of the Company. For the second straight quarter, both revenue for the asset management segment and net investment income for the insurance solutions segment grew quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. I also would like to highlight that our Basic earnings per share grew to $0.62 this quarter, up $0.65 per share from the second quarter. Ability further progressed on its reinsurance activities of fixed annuities, helping grow total assets of the platform. We also completed the final closing of the Ovation transaction early in the quarter, which will drive incremental fee-related earnings for the business in the future and add further depth and diversification of our specialized credit investment strategies. I am grateful to our team for their tireless work and commitment to the platform and am excited for the opportunity to update our shareholders on additional progress on increasing fee-related earnings, growing assets at the insurance company and capitalizing on the growth opportunities present with our recent acquisitions."

Selected Financial Highlights
- Total revenue for the asset management segment of the Company was $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $0.2 million as compared with $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and an increase of $1.1 million as compared with $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase year-over-year in revenue was largely driven by increased management fees and equity investment earnings.
- Total revenue for the insurance segment of the Company for the three months ended September 30, 2023, of $18.4 million, an increase of $8.7 million as compared to $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and an increase of $27.9 million as compared to $(9.5) million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase year-over-year is primarily due to increase in interest rate, the increase in Ability's bond portfolio, and a $32.2 million increase in net gains from investment activities due to increase in market value of CLOs, offset by a $13.9 million decrease in realized and unrealized losses on embedded derivatives – funds withheld.
- Reported net income (loss) available to holders of common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $15.9 million. This compares to reported net income (loss) of $(0.7) million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase in reported and adjusted net income (loss), as discussed below, resulted primarily from an increase in net gains from investment activities in the insurance segment of the Company and an increase in net insurance finance income due to risk-adjusted interest rate changes.
- Adjusted net income (loss) available to holders of common shares for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $17.3 million. This compares to reported adjusted net income of $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Adjusted net income (loss) in the current and prior year periods excludes transaction costs, acquisition-related costs (including integration costs), and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets for the asset management segment and certain market-related impacts and experience-related items for the insurance segment.
- Fee Related Earnings ("FRE") for the asset management segment of the Company was $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $0.4 million as compared to $1.1 million in the corresponding period in the prior year.
- Total Capital as of September 30, 2023, was $132.0 million, an increase of $14.0 million from December 31, 2022. Total capital consists of debt obligations and total shareholders' equity.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company holds certain debt investments with fixed interest rates that exposes it to fair value interest rate risk. The Company also holds debt investments with variable interest rates that exposes it to cash flow interest rate risk and is partially mitigated with those debt investments subject to an interest rate floor. The Company also holds a debt obligation subject to variable interest rates, which partially mitigates it to cash flow interest rate risk.
