Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

First Quarter 2022 Catastrophe Losses

FedNat Holding Company (the “Company”) estimates, as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, that catastrophe weather losses incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, will reduce its first quarter net income by approximately $29 million, net of reinsurance recoveries and other offsets including affiliated fees, on both a pre-tax and after-tax basis. Catastrophe weather losses in the quarter were driven primarily by eleven notable events (including one wildfire) that impacted Florida, Texas, Louisiana and South Carolina. Approximately $10 million of these net catastrophe losses are related to books of business that the Company is in the process of running off, as previously announced, including FedNat Insurance Company’s non-Florida book as well as Maison Insurance Company’s book of business.

In addition, the Company recorded approximately $2 million of net adverse reserve development in the quarter related to Hurricane Laura, which hit Louisiana in August 2020.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

Reference is made to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 14, 2022, reporting that the Company received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market of the Company’s non-compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because of the late filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 Form 10-K”). The Company filed the 2021 Form 10-K on April 25, 2022 and, by letter dated April 27, 2022, received notice from Nasdaq that the Company has regained compliance with this Listing Rule.
