TIPTREE REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2022 RESULTS
Greenwich, Connecticut - November 2, 2022 - Tiptree Inc. (NASDAQ:TIPT) (“Tiptree” or the “Company”), today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. 

Third Quarter 2022 Summary

•Revenues for the quarter of $363.5 million, an increase of 26.8% from Q3'21, driven by growth in Fortegra’s specialty insurance lines and increased vessel revenues. Excluding investment gains and losses, revenues were up 17.7%.

•Net income of $14.2 million compared to net income of $2.0 million in Q3'21, driven by the gain on sale of dry-bulk vessels and growth in our insurance business.

•Adjusted net income of $19.4 million decreased by 6.4% from $20.7 million in Q3'21, driven by declines in our mortgage business. Adjusted return on average equity was 14.8% for the quarter.

•Completed the sale of two remaining dry bulk vessels for $46.2 million, representing a gain of $14.1 million. Total proceeds from dry-bulk vessel sales in 2022 were $67.7 million, or a gain of $21.2 million.

•Signed definitive agreements to sell remaining two product tankers for an aggregate of $49.0 million, representing an approximate 44% gain as compared to Q3’22 book value. The two tankers are expected to close in Q4’22.

•The Company repurchased 158,162 shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 at an average price of $10.43 per share.

•Declared a dividend of $0.04 per share to stockholders of record on November 21, 2022 with a payment date of November 28, 2022.

Nine Months 2022 Summary

•In June 2022, Tiptree closed the previously announced $200 million strategic investment in Fortegra by Warburg Pincus. As part of the closing, $113 million of Tiptree’s corporate debt was repaid in full. For the nine months, Tiptree recognized a $63.2 million pre-tax gain in stockholders’ equity from the investment in Fortegra, which was partially offset by an increase in deferred tax liability associated with the tax deconsolidation of Fortegra. Of the total deferred tax liability of $38.2 million, $24.1 million impacted net income with the remainder impacting stockholders’ equity directly.

•In 2022, we sold all three dry bulk vessels for $67.7 million and signed definitive agreements to sell the remaining two product tankers for $49.0 million. The gain on the two product tankers is expected to be approximately 44% as compared to Q3’22 book value and we expect the sales to close in Q4’22.

•Year-to-date revenues of $1.03 billion, an increase of 16.7% from 2021 driven by similar factors impacting the quarter. Excluding investment gains and losses, revenues were up 19.3%.

•Net loss of $9.1 million compared to net income of $38.6 million in 2021, driven by the deferred tax liability associated with the tax deconsolidation of Fortegra and unrealized losses on investments as compared to gains in the prior year period, partially offset by growth in insurance and shipping operations.

•Adjusted net income of $48.8 million increased by 3.9% from prior year, driven by growth in specialty insurance and shipping operations. Adjusted return on average equity was 14.2%.

•Fortegra’s gross written premiums and premium equivalents increased 29.5% for the quarter and 20.9% for the year driven by growth in U.S. specialty insurance lines and service contract businesses in U.S. and Europe. As a function of Fortegra’s premium growth, the combination of unearned premiums and deferred revenues on the balance sheet grew to $2.0 billion, up $413.8 million, or 26.5%, from September 30, 2021.

•Revenues increased 32.6% for the quarter and 25.2% for the year driven by premium growth in specialty admitted and E&S lines, partially offset by unrealized investment losses. Excluding the impact of investment gains and losses, revenues increased by 31.2% for the quarter and 29.3% for the year.

•The combined ratio for the quarter was 91.5%, compared to 89.6% in Q3'21 driven by the scalability of Fortegra’s technology and shared service platform, which improved the expense ratio, while the underwriting ratio increased due to a shift in business mix toward lines with higher loss ratios and lower expense ratios. Year-to-date combined ratio was consistent at 91.0%.

•Income before taxes for the quarter was $15.3 million. Year-to-date income before taxes of $39.1 million compared to $49.6 million in the prior year. Return on equity for the year-to-date period was 12.1%, as compared to 17.3% in 2021.

•Adjusted net income for the quarter was $19.8 million, up 1.5% from Q3'21. Year-to-date adjusted net income was $59.9 million, up 29.1% from prior year driven by revenue growth and the improved combined ratio. The year-to-date adjusted return on average equity was 25.8%, as compared to 20.9% in 2021.

•On April 1, 2022, Fortegra acquired ITC Compliance GRP Limited for net cash consideration of $15.0 million, which further establishes Fortegra's footprint in Europe and provides a wholly vertical compliance solution for the U.K. automotive market.

•Tiptree Capital income before taxes for the quarter was $18.1 million compared to $1.6 million in the prior year driven by improved dry bulk and tanker charter rates and the gain on sale of two of our dry bulk vessels.

•Income before taxes for the year was $23.8 million, down substantially from the prior year as declines in origination volumes and gain on sale margins in our mortgage business and unrealized losses on Invesque more than offset the improvements in our shipping business.

Corporate:

Corporate includes expenses of the holding company for interest expense, employee compensation and benefits, and public company and other expenses. For the quarter, corporate expenses were $8.3 million compared to $11.3 million in Q3'21 and for the year were $33.9 million compared to $33.2 million. The decrease in the quarter was driven by lower incentive compensation expense and interest expense as we repaid our corporate holding company borrowings in June 2022. Effective November 1, 2022, Tiptree has relocated its headquarters to 660 Steamboat Road, Greenwich, CT 06830.

Non-GAAP

Management uses Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity as measurements of operating performance. Management believes these measures provide supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance and comparison among companies. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. Adjusted net income represents income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting. Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for GAAP net income. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of these measures to their GAAP equivalents.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures — Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity

The Company defines Adjusted net income as income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, including merger and acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses) and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting. We use adjusted net income as an internal operating performance measure in the management of business as part of our capital allocation process. We believe adjusted net income provides useful supplemental information to investors as it is frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance between periods and for comparison among companies. Adjusted net income should not be viewed as a substitute for income before taxes calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted net income differently. Adjusted net income is presented before the impacts of non-controlling interests.

We define Adjusted return on average equity as Adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholder’s equity during the period. We use Adjusted return on average equity as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Adjusted return on average equity should not be viewed as a substitute for return on average equity calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted return on average equity differently.
