Item 1.
Security and Issuer.
 

 
The name of the issuer is 1347 Property Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer").  The address of the Issuer's principal executive offices is 1511 N. Westshore Blvd., Suite 870, Tampa, Florida, 33607, United States of America.  This Schedule 13D relates to the Issuer's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares").
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Item 2.
Identity and Background.
 

 
(a), (f)
This Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by (i) Harbert Discovery Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Fund"), (ii) Harbert Discovery Fund GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Fund GP"), (iii) Harbert Fund Advisors, Inc., an Alabama corporation ("HFA"), (iv) Harbert Management Corporation, an Alabama corporation ("HMC"), (v) Jack Bryant, a United States citizen, (vi) Kenan Lucas, a United States citizen, and (vii) Raymond Harbert, a United States citizen (collectively, the "Reporting Persons").  The Fund was previously named Harbert MicroCap Partners Fund, LP, and the Fund GP was previously named Harbert MicroCap Partners Fund GP, LLC.
 
       
 
(b)
The principal business address for each of the Reporting Persons is 2100 Third Avenue North, Suite 600, Birmingham, Alabama 35203.
 
       
 
(c)
Jack Bryant and Kenan Lucas, are directors and co-portfolio managers of the Fund GP, which serves as general partner of the Fund.  Raymond Harbert is the controlling shareholder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HMC, an alternative asset investment management firm that is the managing member of the Fund GP.  Mr. Harbert also serves as the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Director of HFA, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of HMC, which provides the Fund with certain operational and administrative services.  The principal business of the Fund is purchasing, holding and selling securities for investment purposes.
 
       
 
(d)
None of the Reporting Persons have, during the last five years, been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
 
       
 
(e)
Prior to March 2009, HMC was affiliated with the Harbinger Capital Partners Funds ("Harbinger") managed by Philip Falcone.  On June 27, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") filed civil fraud charges against Mr. Falcone and Harbinger related to, among other things, their trading in the bonds of a small company known as MAAX Holdings in 2006-2008 that the SEC alleges to have been "manipulative" in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").  The SEC also sought to hold HMC derivatively liable as a "control person" under Section 20(A) of the Exchange Act.  Section 20(A) is a derivative liability provision that does not prohibit any specified conduct and cannot be independently violated by one's own conduct, but imposes joint and several liability on certain persons who control another to the extent that such "controlled person" is independently liable for its own violations of the securities laws.  Except as set forth in this Item 2(e) none of the Reporting Persons have, during the last five years, been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding were or are subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
 
 
 



Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
     
 
The funds for the purchase of the Shares by the Fund came from the working capital of the Fund, over which HFA, HMC, the Fund GP, Jack Bryant, Kenan Lucas and Raymond Harbert, through their roles described above in Item 2(c), exercise investment discretion.  No borrowed funds were used to purchase the Shares, other than borrowed funds used for working capital purposes in the ordinary course of business.  The total costs (including commissions, if any) of the Shares directly owned by Harbert Discovery Fund, LP is approximately $2,595,482.62.
 
     

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
     
 
The Reporting Persons purchased the securities of the Issuer reported herein based on their belief that the securities were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.
 
The Reporting Persons have had conversations with the Issuer's management and board of directors regarding possible ways to enhance shareholder value. The Reporting Persons intend to have further conversations with the Issuer's management and board of directors on a range of issues, including those relating to the business of the Issuer, management, board composition, operations, capital allocation, asset allocation, capitalization, dividend policy, financial condition, mergers and acquisitions strategy, overall business strategy, executive compensation, and corporate governance. The Reporting Persons may also have similar conversations with other stockholders of the Issuer and other interested parties, such as industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment professionals, and other investors. The Reporting Persons may at any time reconsider and change their intentions relating to the foregoing.
 
The Issuer went public in 2014 and completed a follow-on offering in the same year.  The capital was raised with the intention of rapidly deploying the capital into additional coastal states beyond Louisiana.  For a variety of reasons, the Issuer has failed to expand at the initially anticipated pace.  Despite this, the Reporting Persons believe there is still substantial value in the Issuer's shares. The Issuer trades at 0.9x book while its peers have an average price-to-book multiple of 1.5x. With profitability expected for 2016, even despite the abnormal weather, book value should grow and the upside to a peer multiple should compound. If the Issuer were to close the gap and trade up to a peer multiple, shareholders would realize gains of 63%.
 
However, while the Issuer's growth in policies-in-force over the past two years and its 2015 expansion into Texas have been welcome developments, these growth initiatives have been insufficient relative to the Issuer's current capitalization. Residual from its underfollowed Initial Public Offering and Follow-on Offerings, the Issuer had $27 million of excess capital at the holding company as of December 31, 2015.  This surplus has contributed to a below industry ROE, a key reason the Issuer is undervalued relative to its peers.
 
The Reporting Persons believe the Issuer is a growing company with attractive future prospects, but in order to achieve its fullest potential the Reporting Persons believe the Issuer should address its excess capital through strategic measures beyond its current growth plan.  The board's consideration of strategic actions should include but should be not limited to prudent M&A transactions, aggressive use of the existing share repurchase plan, an outright sale of the business, and other strategic alternatives. The Reporting Persons have communicated to the Issuer that the Issuer should explore these various alternatives genuinely and immediately.  Concurrent with a focus on strategic opportunities, the Issuer should address corporate governance issues, including a classified board, lack of diversity on the board, and lack of director independence (both from management and from other directors).
 
 
 


 
By evaluating and executing on the potential strategic actions in conjunction with executing on the existing organic growth plan, the Reporting Persons expect the Issuer to grow revenue, earnings, and market value, generating attractive returns for all stakeholders in the process.  Furthermore, addressing the corporate governance issues will give new and existing shareholders comfort that the board is focused on creating long-term value for all stakeholders.
 
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or would result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a)- (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons may in the future take one or more of the actions described in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D and may discuss such actions with the Issuer's management and the board of directors, other stockholders of the Issuer, and other interested parties, such as those set out above.
 
The Reporting Persons intend to review their investments in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors, including, without limitation, the Issuer's financial position and strategic direction, the outcome of the discussions and actions referenced above, actions taken by the Issuer's board of directors, price levels of the Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take actions with respect to its investment position in the Issuer as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, purchasing additional Common Stock or selling some of all of its Common Stock, and/or engaging in hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Common Stock.
