Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements for HCI Group, Inc. and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2018 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2018.

In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, management was required to make certain judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the financial reporting date and throughout the periods being reported upon. Certain of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and consequently actual results may differ from these estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are related to the Company’s losses and loss adjustment expenses, which include amounts estimated for claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company uses various assumptions and actuarial data it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to make these estimates. In addition, accounting policies specific to reinsurance with retrospective provisions, reinsurance recoverable, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation expense involve significant judgments and estimates material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company adopted the following accounting standards effective January 1, 2018.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company elected to use a modified retrospective method for transition to the new revenue recognition standard. The impact is limited to certain revenue generating activities that are not material to the Company’s results of operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01 (“ASU 2016-01”), Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10). ASU 2016-01 amends the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 requires all equity investments other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through income. ASU 2016-01 also supersedes the guidance that requires classification of equity securities with readily determinable fair values into either “trading” or “available-for-sale.” Upon adoption of this standard, the after-tax net unrealized holding gains of $4,168 in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2017, which pertain to available-for-sale equity securities and represent a cumulative-effect amount, were reclassified to beginning retained income. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of equity securities have now been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income in the prior period. In addition, previously reported available-for-sale and trading equity securities of $58,911 and $1,045, respectively, at December 31, 2017 are combined and presented as equity securities on the comparative balance sheet. Certain prior-period disclosures related to equity securities are reorganized to conform with current period presentation.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. ASU 2016-18 amends guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption of this standard, restricted cash is now included with cash and cash equivalents when the Company reconciles the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the prior period presented is retrospectively restated to comply with the new standard. This change in classification and presentation of restricted cash increases the previously reported cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $24,256 to $24,365.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-09 (“ASU 2017-09”), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an application of modification accounting. The adoption of this standard will impact the Company’s accounting for any future modification of its existing share-based awards.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02 (“ASU 2018-02”), Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). ASU 2018-02 primarily allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained income for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The Company elected to early adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2018. As a result, the Company decreases beginning retained income and increases accumulated other comprehensive income by $984 of the net deferred tax effects pertaining to available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities as of December 31, 2017.

Equity Securities

Equity securities represent ownership interests held by the Company in entities for investment purpose. Prior to January 1, 2018, these equity securities were classified as either available-for-sale or trading and were carried at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Unrealized holding gains and losses from the changes in the fair values of available-for-sale equity securities were reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. Effective January 1, 2018, unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statement of income as net unrealized investment gains and

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)

losses. As a result, other-than-temporary impairments will no longer be considered for equity securities. Realized investment gains and losses from sales are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the FIFO method (see Equity Securities in Note 4 – “Investments”).

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments represent certificates of deposit issued by financial institutions with original maturities of more than three months but less than one year at date of acquisition. These short-term investments are carried at cost.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. For example, certain payroll-related costs such as share-based compensation expense, payroll taxes and employee benefits, which were previously reported in other operating expenses totaling $1,972 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, were reclassified to general and administrative personnel expenses to conform with the 2018 presentation.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standard to be Adopted in Fiscal Year 2019

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842). The guidance establishes new principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. ASU 2016-02 supersedes accounting for leases prescribed in Topic 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 leaves lessor accounting substantially unchanged. The key change affecting the Company is the requirement that operating leases be recorded on the balance sheet. The Company is required to use a modified retrospective method and apply this standard at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company has identified lease contracts that will be affected by this standard. The Company has not yet determined whether to apply the practical expedients related to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct cost for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on its financial position.

Other-than-temporary Impairment

The Company regularly reviews its individual investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company considers various factors in determining whether each individual security is other-than-temporarily impaired, including-

• the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings;

• the length of time and the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost;

• general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors and other qualitative factors;

• nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and

• the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of costs.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company records and discloses certain financial assets at their estimated fair value. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1    –	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2    –	Other inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly such as quoted prices for identical assets that are not observable throughout the full term of the asset.
Level 3    –	Inputs that are unobservable.

Valuation Methodology

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money-market funds. Their carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity and high liquidity of these funds.

Short-term investments

Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposit maturing in six months. Due to their short maturity, the carrying value approximates fair value.

Fixed-maturity and equity securities

Estimated fair values of the Company’s fixed-maturity and equity securities are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair values are generally measured using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar securities. In those instances where observable inputs are not available, fair values are measured using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value estimates derived from unobservable inputs are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rates and the estimated amounts and timing of future cash flows. The derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.

The estimated fair values for securities that do not trade on a daily basis are determined by management, utilizing prices obtained from an independent pricing service and information provided by brokers, which are level 2 inputs. Management reviews the assumptions and methods utilized by the pricing service and then compares the relevant data and pricing to broker-provided data. The Company gains assurance of the overall reasonableness and consistent application of the assumptions and methodologies and compliance with accounting standards for fair value determination through ongoing monitoring of the reported fair values.

Limited Partnership Investments

As described in Note 4 – “Investments” under Limited Partnership Investments, the Company has interests in limited partnerships which are private equity funds. Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, these funds are required to use fair value accounting; therefore, the estimated fair value approximates the carrying value of these funds.

Long-term debt

The following table summarizes components of the Company’s long-term debt and methods used in estimating their fair values:

	Maturity Date		Valuation Methodology
3.875% Convertible Senior Notes		2019	Quoted price
4.25% Convertible Senior Notes		2037	Quoted price
3.95% Promissory Note		2020	Discounted cash flow method/Level 3 inputs

Convertible Senior Notes

3.875% Convertible Notes. Since January 2015, the Company’s cash dividends on common stock have exceeded $0.275 per share, resulting in adjustments to the conversion rate of the 3.875% Convertible Notes. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2018, the conversion rate of the Company’s 3.875% Convertible Notes was 16.2521 shares of common stock for each $1 in principal amount, which was the equivalent of approximately $61.53 per share.

The effective interest rates for the 3.875% Convertible Notes and the 4.25% Convertible Notes, taking into account both cash and non-cash components, approximate 8.3% and 7.6%, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, the remaining amortization periods of the debt discounts were expected to be 11 months for the 3.875% Convertible Notes and 3.9 years for the 4.25% Convertible Notes.

Note 9 – Reinsurance

The Company cedes a portion of its insurance exposure to other entities under catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts and one quota share reinsurance agreements. The Company remains liable for claims payments in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentrations of credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities or economic characteristics of the reinsurers to minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies. The Company contracts with a number of reinsurers to secure its annual reinsurance coverage, which generally becomes effective June 1st each year. The Company purchases reinsurance each year taking into consideration probable maximum losses and reinsurance market conditions.

The impact of the reinsurance contracts on premiums written and earned is as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018			2017
Premiums Written:
Direct	$	70,225		$	72,386
Assumed		(78	)		(961	)
Gross written		70,147			71,425
Ceded		(32,250	)		(28,583	)

Premiums Earned:

Assumed		943			5,347
Gross earned		85,772			91,619
Ceded		(32,250	)		(28,583	)
Net premiums earned	$	53,522		$	63,036

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, ceded losses of $205 were recognized as a reduction in losses and loss adjustment expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, there were no recoveries pertaining to reinsurance contracts that were deducted from losses incurred. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 37 reinsurers participating in the Company’s reinsurance program. Amounts receivable with respect to reinsurers at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $85,943 and 103,104, respectively. Approximately 30.6% of the reinsurance recoverable balance at March 31, 2018 was concentrated in two reinsurers. Based on the insurance ratings, the payment history and the financial strength of the reinsurers, management believes there was no significant credit risk associated with its reinsurers’ obligations to perform on any prepaid reinsurance contract and to fund any reinsurance recoverable balance as of March 31, 2018.

Certain of the reinsurance contracts include retrospective provisions that adjust premiums, increase the amount of future coverage, or result in a profit commission in the event losses are minimal or zero. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized net premiums ceded of $337 related to these adjustments, of which $48 was attributable to the Company’s contract with Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited, a related party. In contrast, these adjustments were reflected in the consolidated statements of income as a net reduction in ceded premiums of $3,322 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, of which $576 related to the Company’s contract with Oxbridge.

In addition, adjustments related to retrospective provisions are reflected in other assets. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, other assets included $2,822 and $2,393, respectively, of which $564 and $479 related to the contract with Oxbridge. Management believes the credit risk associated with the collectability of these accrued benefits is minimal as the amount receivable is concentrated with one reinsurer and the Company monitors the creditworthiness of this reinsurer based on available information about the reinsurer’s financial condition.

Note 10 – Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses is determined on an individual case basis for all claims reported. The liability also includes amounts for unallocated expenses, anticipated future claim development and losses incurred, but not reported.

The Company writes insurance in the state of Florida, which could be exposed to hurricanes or other natural catastrophes. The occurrence of a major catastrophe could have a significant effect on the Company’s quarterly results and cause a temporary disruption of the normal operations of the Company. However, the Company is unable to predict the frequency or severity of any such events that may occur in the near term or thereafter.

Activity in the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses is summarized as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018			2017
Gross balance, beginning of period	$	198,578		$	70,492
Less: reinsurance recoverable		(100,760	)		—
Net balance, beginning of period		97,818			70,492
Incurred, net of reinsurance, related to:
Current period		19,490			23,208
Prior period		165			2,321
Total incurred, net of reinsurance		19,655			25,529
Paid, net of reinsurance, related to:
Current period		(4,447	)		(6,645	)
Prior period		(21,623	)		(19,465	)
Total paid, net of reinsurance		(26,070	)		(26,110	)

Add: reinsurance recoverable		57,183			—
Gross balance, end of period	$	148,586		$	69,911

The establishment of loss reserves is an inherently uncertain process and changes in loss reserve estimates are expected as these estimates are subject to the outcome of future events. Changes in estimates, or differences between estimates and amounts ultimately paid, are reflected in the operating results of the period during which such estimates are adjusted. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company established loss reserves of $19,655 which primarily pertains to claims in the 2018 loss year.

Note 11 – Segment Information

The Company identifies its operating divisions based on organizational structure and revenue source. Currently, the Company has three reportable segments: insurance operations, real estate operations, and corporate and other. Due to their economic characteristics, the Company’s property and casualty insurance division and reinsurance division are grouped together into one reportable segment under insurance operations. The real estate operations segment includes companies engaged in operating commercial properties the Company owns for investment purposes or for use in its own operations. The corporate and other segment represents the activities of the holding companies, the information technology division, and other companies that do not meet the quantitative thresholds for a reportable segment. The determination of segments may change over time due to changes in operational emphasis, revenues, and results of operations. The Company’s chief executive officer, who serves as the Company’s chief operating decision maker, evaluates each division’s financial and operating performance based on revenue and operating income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, revenues from the Company’s insurance operations before intracompany elimination represented 94.8% and 96.5%, respectively, of total revenues of all operating segments. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, insurance operations’ total assets represented 86.1% and 87.1%, respectively, of the combined assets of all operating segments. In addition, there was no other operating division representing ten percent or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of the combined profits of all operating divisions reporting a profit or the combined losses of all operating divisions reporting a loss. The following tables present segment information reconciled to the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Intersegment transactions are not eliminated from segment results. However, intracompany transactions are eliminated in segment results below.

Note 12 – Income Taxes

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded approximately $4,013 and $7,122, respectively, of income taxes, which resulted in effective tax rates of 27.1% and 37.2%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2018 as compared with the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily attributable to the reduction of the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, offset by an increase in nondeductible compensation expenses due to the elimination of the deductibility of most performance based compensation, resulting from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017. The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal tax rate due to state and foreign income taxes as well as certain nondeductible and tax-exempt items.

Note 13 – Earnings Per Share

U.S. GAAP requires the Company to use the two-class method in computing basic earnings per share since holders of the Company’s restricted stock have the right to share in dividends, if declared, equally with common stockholders. These participating securities affect the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share during periods of net income or loss.

A summary of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per common share is presented below.

Restricted Stock Awards

From time to time, the Company has granted and may grant restricted stock awards to its executive officers, other employees and nonemployee directors in connection with their service to the Company. The terms of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock grants may include service, performance and market-based conditions. The fair value of the awards with market-based conditions is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method, which calculates many potential outcomes for an award and then establishes fair value based on the most likely outcome. The determination of fair value with respect to the awards containing only performance or service-based conditions is based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Information with respect to the activity of unvested restricted stock awards during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is as follows:

OVERVIEW – General

HCI Group, Inc. is a Florida-based company that, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in a variety of business activities, including property and casualty insurance, reinsurance, real estate and information technology. Based on our organizational structure, revenue sources, and evaluation of financial and operating performances by management, we manage the following operating divisions:

a) Insurance Operations

• Property and casualty insurance

• Reinsurance

b) Other Operations

• Real estate

• Information technology

37

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, revenues from insurance operations before intracompany elimination represented 94.8% and 96.5%, respectively, of total revenues of all operating segments. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, insurance operations’ total assets represented 86.1% and 87.1%, respectively, of the combined assets of all operating segments. See Note 11 – “Segment Information” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Insurance Operations

Property and Casualty Insurance

Our insurance business is operated through two insurance subsidiaries: Homeowners Choice Property & Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (“HCPCI”), our principal operating subsidiary, and TypTap Insurance Company (“TypTap”). We provide various forms of residential insurance products such as homeowners insurance, fire insurance, flood insurance and wind-only insurance. We are authorized to write residential property and casualty insurance in the states of Arkansas, California, Florida, Maryland, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas. Florida is currently our only market. Our growth since inception has resulted primarily from a series of policy assumptions from Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, a Florida state-supported insurer. This growth track has been beneficial to us although there are fewer policies available for assumption today as a result of increased competition in the Florida market. We expect the flood insurance products offered by TypTap and HCPCI to become significant contributors to future financial results.

Reinsurance

We have a Bermuda domiciled wholly-owned reinsurance subsidiary, Claddaugh Casualty Insurance Company Ltd. We selectively retain risk in Claddaugh, displacing the need for HCPCI or TypTap to pay premiums to third party reinsurers. Claddaugh fully collateralizes its exposure to our insurance subsidiaries by depositing funds into a trust account. Claddaugh may mitigate a portion of its risk through retrocessional reinsurance contracts. Currently, Claddaugh does not provide reinsurance to non-affiliates.

Other Operations

Real Estate

Our real estate operations consist of properties we own and use for our own operations and multiple properties we own and operate for investment purposes. Properties used in operations consist of our Tampa headquarters building and a secondary insurance operations site in Ocala, Florida. We also have investment properties consisting of a combined 24 acres of waterfront properties that include one full-service restaurant and two marinas, two retail shopping centers, and one office building. In January 2018, we acquired full ownership of one limited liability company which owns commercial real estate in Riverview, Florida. See Consolidated Variable Interest Entity in Note 4 – “Investments” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Information Technology

Our information technology operations include a team of experienced software developers with extensive knowledge in developing web-based products and applications for mobile devices. The operations, which are in Tampa, Florida and Noida, India, are focused on developing cloud-based, innovative products or services that support in-house operations as well as our third party relationships with our agency partners and claim vendors. These products include Proplet^TM, TypTap^TM, SAMS^TM, CasaClue^TM, Exzeo^®, and Atlas Viewer^TM.

Recent Events

On April 16, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.375 per common share. The dividends are payable on June 15, 2018 to stockholders of record on May 18, 2018.

Comparison of the Three Months ended March 31, 2018 to the Three Months ended March 31, 2017

Our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 reflect income available to common stockholders of approximately $10,791,000, or $1.11 earnings per diluted common share, compared with approximately $12,020,000, or $1.15 earnings per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was primarily due to a $9,514,000 decrease in net premiums earned and a net investment loss of $368,000 in 2018 versus an investment gain of $715,000 in 2017, offset by a $5,874,000 decrease in losses and loss adjustment expenses, which contributed to a decrease in pre-tax income of $4,338,000. In addition, our income tax expense in 2018 was positively impacted by a lower federal corporate income tax rate effective January 1, 2018.

Revenue

Gross Premiums Earned for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $85,772,000 and $91,619,000, respectively. The decrease in 2018 compared with the first quarter of the prior year was primarily attributable to policy attrition.

Premiums Ceded for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $32,250,000 and $28,583,000, respectively, representing 37.6% and 31.2%, respectively, of gross premiums earned. The $3,667,000 increase was primarily attributable to a net increase of ceded premiums attributable to retrospective provisions under certain reinsurance contracts due to losses incurred by Hurricane Irma in September 2017 as opposed to a net reduction in ceded premiums in the corresponding period in 2017.

Our premiums ceded represent costs of reinsurance to cover losses from catastrophes that exceed the retention levels defined by our catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts or to assume a proportional share of losses as defined in a quota share agreement. The rates we pay for reinsurance are based primarily on policy exposures reflected in gross premiums earned. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, premiums ceded included a net increase of approximately $337,000 related to retrospective provisions. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, premiums ceded reflected a net reduction of approximately $3,322,000. See “Economic Impact of Reinsurance Contracts with Retrospective Provisions” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Net Premiums Written for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 totaled approximately $37,897,000 and $42,842,000, respectively. Net premiums written represent the premiums charged on policies issued during a fiscal period less any applicable reinsurance costs. The $4,945,000 decrease in 2018 resulted from the increase in premiums ceded as described above combined with a decrease in gross premiums written during the period due to policy attrition. We had approximately 136,000 policies in force at March 31, 2018 as compared with approximately 148,000 policies in force at March 31, 2017.

Net Premiums Earned for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $53,522,000 and $63,036,000, respectively, and reflect the gross premiums earned less reinsurance costs as described above.

41

The following is a reconciliation of our total Net Premiums Written to Net Premiums Earned for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 (amounts in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018		2017
Net Premiums Written	$	37,897	$	42,842
Decrease in Unearned Premiums		15,625		20,194
Net Premiums Earned	$	53,522	$	63,036

Net Realized Investment Gains for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $2,232,000 and $715,000, respectively. The gains in 2018 resulted primarily from sales intended to rebalance our investment portfolio to mitigate the impact from the rising interest rate trend and to decrease our holdings in municipal bonds as they become less attractive in a low tax rate environment.

Net Unrealized Investment Losses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $2,600,000, representing a net unfavorable change in the fair value of equity securities during the period subsequent to the adoption of the new accounting standard as described in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Expenses

Our Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses amounted to approximately $19,655,000 and $25,529,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the first quarter of 2018, we had fewer non-catastrophic claims as compared with the corresponding period in 2017. Loss reserves established during the first quarter of 2018 primarily pertained to claims in the 2018 loss year, whereas our 2017 losses and loss adjustment expenses were impacted by the strengthening of loss reserves in response to trends involving assignment of insurance benefits and related litigation. See “Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Policy Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 of approximately $9,360,000 and $9,649,000, respectively, primarily reflected commissions and premium taxes related to the policies that have renewed.

General and Administrative Personnel Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $6,283,000 and $6,975,000, respectively. Our general and administrative personnel expenses include salaries, wages, payroll taxes, share-based compensation expenses, and employee benefit costs. Factors such as merit increases, changes in headcount, and periodic restricted stock grants, among others, cause fluctuations in this expense. In addition, our personnel expenses are decreased by the capitalization of payroll costs related to a project to develop software for internal use and the payroll costs associated with the processing and settlement of Hurricane Irma claims which are recoverable from reinsurers under reinsurance contracts. The quarter-over-quarter decrease of $692,000 was primarily attributable to recoverable Hurricane Irma payroll costs and lower share-based compensation expense during the first quarter of 2018.

Interest Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $4,470,0000 and $3,542,000, respectively. The increase primarily resulted from the 4.25% convertible debt offering completed in March 2017.

42

Income Tax Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $4,013,000 and $7,122,000, respectively, for state, federal, and foreign income taxes resulting in an effective tax rate of 27.1% for 2018 and 37.2% for 2017.

Ratios:

The loss ratio applicable to the three months ended March 31, 2018 (losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred related to net premiums earned) was 36.7% compared with 40.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in losses and loss adjustment expenses as described previously.

The expense ratio applicable to the three months ended March 31, 2018 (defined as underwriting expenses, general and administrative personnel expenses, interest and other operating expenses related to net premiums earned) was 43.5% compared with 36.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in our expense ratio was primarily attributable to the decrease in net premiums earned.

The combined ratio (total of all expenses in relation to net premiums earned) is the measure of overall underwriting profitability before other income. Our combined ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 80.2% compared with 77.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was attributable to the higher percentage decrease in net premiums earned than the percentage decrease in total expenses.

Due to the impact our reinsurance costs have on net premiums earned from period to period, our management believes the combined ratio measured to gross premiums earned is more relevant in assessing overall performance. The combined ratio to gross premiums earned for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was 50.1% compared with 53.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in 2018 was attributable to the factors described above.

Seasonality of Our Business

Our insurance business is seasonal as hurricanes and tropical storms affecting Florida typically occur during the period from June 1 through November 30 each year. Also, with our reinsurance treaty year typically effective June 1 each year, any variation in the cost of our reinsurance, whether due to changes in reinsurance rates or changes in the total insured value of our policy base, will occur and be reflected in our financial results beginning June 1 each year.

43

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Throughout our history, our liquidity requirements have been met through issuances of our common and preferred stock, debt offerings and funds from operations. We expect our future liquidity requirements will be met by funds from operations, primarily the cash received by insurance subsidiaries from premiums written and investment income. We may consider raising additional capital through debt and equity offerings to support our growth and future investment opportunities.

Our insurance subsidiary requires liquidity and adequate capital to meet ongoing obligations to policyholders and claimants and to fund operating expenses. In addition, we attempt to maintain adequate levels of liquidity and surplus to manage any differences between the duration of our liabilities and invested assets. In the insurance industry, cash collected for premiums from policies written is invested, interest and dividends are earned thereon, and losses and loss adjustment expenses are paid out over a period of years. This period of time varies by the circumstances surrounding each claim. Substantially all of our losses and loss adjustment expenses are fully settled and paid within 100 days of the claim receipt date. Additional cash outflow occurs through payments of underwriting costs such as commissions, taxes, payroll, and general overhead expenses.

We believe that we maintain sufficient liquidity to pay claims and expenses, as well as to satisfy commitments in the event of unforeseen events such as reinsurer insolvencies, inadequate premium rates, or reserve deficiencies. We maintain a comprehensive reinsurance program at levels management considers adequate to diversify risk and safeguard our financial position.

In the future, we anticipate our primary use of funds will be to pay claims, reinsurance premiums, interest, and dividends and to fund operating expenses and real estate acquisitions.

At March 31, 2018, there was an aggregate unfunded capital balance of $17,742,000. See Limited Partnership Investments under Note 4 – “Investments” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

44

Share Repurchase Plan

In December 2017, our Board of Directors approved a one-year plan to repurchase up to $20,000,000 of common shares under which we may purchase shares of common stock in open market purchases, block transactions and privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. At March 31, 2018, there was approximately $13,468,000 available under the plan. See Note 14 – “Stockholders’ Equity” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Cash Flows for the Three months ended March 31, 2018

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $14,593,000, which consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest payments. Net cash used in investing activities of $4,502,000 was primarily due to the purchases of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $54,783,000, the purchases of short-term investments of $55,433,000, and the limited partnership investments of $1,586,000, offset by the proceeds from sales of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $101,643,000, and the proceeds from redemptions and maturities of fixed-maturity securities of $6,195,000. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $10,545,000, which was primarily due to $6,748,000 used in our share repurchases and $2,998,000 of net cash dividend payments.

Cash Flows for the Three months ended March 31, 2017

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was approximately $24,365,000, which consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest payments. Net cash used in investing activities of $801,000 was primarily due to the purchases of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $20,961,000, the limited partnership investments of $2,346,000, and the real estate investments of $1,119,000, offset by the distributions of $11,758,000 from limited partnership investments and the proceeds from sales of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $11,710,000. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $103,905,000, which was primarily due to the proceeds from issuance of 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes of $143,750,000, offset by $4,806,000 of related underwriting and issuance costs, $31,555,000 used in our share repurchases and $3,378,000 of net cash dividend payments.

45

Investments

The main objective of our investment policy is to maximize our after-tax investment income with a reasonable level of risk given the current financial market. Our excess cash is invested primarily in money market accounts, certificates of deposit, and fixed-maturity and equity securities.

At March 31, 2018, we had $241,312,000 of fixed-maturity and equity investments, which are carried at fair value. Changes in the general interest rate environment affect the returns available on new fixed-maturity investments. While a rising interest rate environment enhances the returns available on new investments, it reduces the market value of existing fixed-maturity investments and thus the availability of gains on disposition. A decline in interest rates reduces the returns available on new fixed-maturity investments but increases the market value of existing fixed-maturity investments, creating the opportunity for realized investment gains on disposition.

In the future, we may alter our investment policy as to investments in federal, state and municipal obligations, preferred and common equity securities and real estate mortgages, as permitted by applicable law, including insurance regulations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of March 31, 2018, we had unexpired capital commitments for five limited partnerships in which we hold interests. Such commitments are not recognized in the financial statements but are required to be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. See Note 16 – “Commitments and Contingencies” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Contractual Obligations and Commitment below for additional information.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We have prepared our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates to develop amounts reflected and disclosed in our consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

We believe our critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance recoverable, reinsurance with retrospective provisions, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation expense. These policies are critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results. They require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are related to our losses and loss adjustment expenses, which include amounts estimated for claims incurred but not yet reported and reinsurance contracts with retrospective provisions.

Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Our liability for losses and loss adjustment expense (“Reserves”) is specific to property insurance, which is our insurance division’s only line of business. The Reserves include both case reserves on reported claims and our reserves for incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) losses. At each period end date, the balance of our Reserves is based on our best estimate of the ultimate cost of each claim for those known cases and the IBNR loss reserves are estimated based primarily on our historical experience. Changes in the estimated liability are charged or credited to operations as the losses and loss adjustment expenses are adjusted.

The IBNR represents our estimate of the ultimate cost of all claims that have occurred but have not been reported to us, and in some cases may not yet be known to the insured, and future development of reported claims. Estimating the IBNR component of our Reserves involves considerable judgment on the part of management. At March 31, 2018, $114,215,000 of the total $148,586,000 we have reserved for losses and loss adjustment expenses is attributable to our estimate of IBNR. The remaining $34,371,000 relates to known cases which have been reported but not yet fully settled in which case we have established a reserve based on currently available information and our best estimate of the cost to settle each claim. At March 31, 2018, $29,733,000 of the $34,371,000 in reserves for known cases relates to claims incurred during prior years.

Our Reserves decreased from $198,578,000 at December 31, 2017 to $148,586,000 at March 31, 2018. The $49,992,000 decrease is comprised of reductions in our Reserves of $55,483,000 for 2017 and $9,552,000 for 2016 and prior loss years offset by $15,043,000 in reserves established for claims occurring in the 2018 loss year. The $15,043,000 in Reserves established for 2018 claims is primarily driven by an allowance for those claims that have been incurred but not reported to the company as of March 31, 2018. The decrease of $65,035,000 specific to our 2017 and prior loss-year reserves is due to settlement of claims related to those loss years.

Based on all information known to us, we consider our Reserves at March 31, 2018 to be adequate to cover our claims for losses that have occurred as of that date including losses yet to be reported to us. However, these estimates are continually reviewed by management as they are subject to significant variability and may be impacted by trends in claim severity and frequency or unusual exposures that have not yet been identified. As part of the process, we review historical data and consider various factors, including known and anticipated regulatory and legal developments, changes in social attitudes, inflation and economic conditions. As experience develops and other data becomes available, these estimates are revised, as required, resulting in increases or decreases to the existing unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. Adjustments are reflected in the results of operations in the period in which they are made and the liabilities may deviate substantially from prior estimates.

Economic Impact of Reinsurance Contracts with Retrospective Provisions

Certain of our reinsurance contracts include retrospective provisions that adjust premiums, increase the amount of future coverage, or result in a profit commission in the event losses are minimal or zero. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we will recognize an asset in the period in which the absence of loss experience gives rise to an increase in future coverage or obligates the reinsurer to pay cash or other consideration under the contract. In the event that a loss arises, we will derecognize such asset in the period in which a loss arises. Such adjustments to the asset, which accrue throughout the contract term, will negatively impact our operating results when a catastrophic loss event occurs during the contract term.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we accrued benefits of $429,000 and $2,491,000, respectively. We recognized additional ceded premiums of $766,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we deferred recognition of $831,000 of reinsurance costs. In combination, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized a net increase in ceded premiums of $337,000 as opposed to a net reduction in ceded premiums of $3,322,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2018, we had $2,822,000 of accrued benefits, the amount that would be charged to earnings in the event we

48

experience a catastrophic loss that exceeds the coverage limits provided under such agreements and in the period that the increased coverage is applicable, respectively. At December 31, 2017, we had $2,393,000 of accrued benefits related to these agreements.

We believe the credit risk associated with the collectability of these accrued benefits is minimal based on available information about the individual reinsurer’s financial position.

The above and other accounting estimates and their related risks that we consider to be our critical accounting estimates are more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which we filed with the SEC on March 7, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, there have been no material changes with respect to any of our critical accounting policies.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our investment portfolios at March 31, 2018 included fixed-maturity and equity securities, the purposes of which are not for speculation. Our main objective is to maximize after-tax investment income and maintain sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations while minimizing market risk, which is the potential economic loss from adverse fluctuations in securities prices. We consider many factors including credit ratings, investment concentrations, regulatory requirements, anticipated fluctuation of interest rates, durations and market conditions in developing investment strategies. Our investment securities are managed primarily by outside investment advisors and are overseen by the investment committee appointed by our board of directors. From time to time, our investment committee may decide to invest in low risk assets such as U.S. government bonds.

Our investment portfolios are exposed to interest rate risk, credit risk and equity price risk. Fiscal and economic uncertainties caused by any government action or inaction may exacerbate these risks and potentially have adverse impacts on the value of our investment portfolios.

We classify our fixed-maturity securities as available-for-sale and report any unrealized gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, as a component of other comprehensive income within our stockholders’ equity. As such, any material temporary changes in their fair value can adversely impact the carrying value of our stockholders’ equity. In addition, we recognize any unrealized gains or losses related to our equity securities in our statement of income. As a result, our results of operations can be materially affected by the volatility in the equity market.

Interest Rate Risk

Our fixed-maturity securities are sensitive to potential losses resulting from unfavorable changes in interest rates. We manage the risk by analyzing anticipated movement in interest rates and considering our future capital needs.

The following table illustrates the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates to the fair value of our fixed-maturity securities at March 31, 2018 (amounts in thousands):

Hypothetical Change in Interest Rates	Estimated Fair Value		Change in Estimated Fair Value			Percentage Increase (Decrease) in Estimated Fair Value
300 basis point increase	$	185,395	$	(10,308	)		(5.27	)%
200 basis point increase		188,828		(6,875	)		(3.51	)%
100 basis point increase		192,264		(3,439	)		(1.76	)%
100 basis point decrease		199,144		3,441			1.76	%
200 basis point decrease		202,568		6,865			3.51	%
300 basis point decrease		205,199		9,496			4.85	%

Credit Risk

Credit risk can expose us to potential losses arising principally from adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuers of our fixed-maturity securities. We mitigate the risk by investing in fixed-maturity securities that are generally investment grade, by diversifying our investment portfolio to avoid concentrations in any single issuer or business sector, and by continually monitoring each individual security for declines in credit quality. While we emphasize credit quality in our investment selection process, significant downturns in the markets or general economy may impact the credit quality of our portfolio.

Equity Price Risk

Our equity investment portfolio at March 31, 2018 included common stocks, perpetual preferred stocks, mutual funds and exchange traded funds. We may incur losses due to adverse changes in equity security prices. We manage the risk primarily through industry and issuer diversification and asset mix.

The following table illustrates the composition of our equity securities at March 31, 2018 (amounts in thousands):

	Estimated Fair Value		% of Total Estimated Fair Value
Stocks by sector:
Financial	$	22,533		49

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial and accounting officer), we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, and, based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, implementation of possible controls and procedures depends on management’s judgment in evaluating their benefits relative to costs.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to claims and legal actions arising routinely in the ordinary course of our business. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of the claims and lawsuits asserted against us, we do not believe that any currently pending legal proceedings to which we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2018.

Working Capital Restrictions and Other Limitations on Payment of Dividends

We are not subject to working capital restrictions or other limitations on the payment of dividends. Our insurance subsidiaries, however, are subject to restrictions on the dividends they may pay. Those restrictions could impact HCI’s ability to pay future dividends.

Under Florida law, a domestic insurer may not pay any dividend or distribute cash or other property to its stockholder except out of that part of its available and accumulated capital and surplus funds which is derived from realized net operating profits on its business and net realized capital gains. Additionally, a Florida domestic insurer may not make dividend payments or distributions to its stockholder without prior approval of the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation if the dividend or distribution would exceed the larger of (1) the lesser of (a) 10.0% of its capital surplus or (b) net income, not including realized capital gains, plus a two year carry forward, (2) 10.0% of capital surplus with dividends payable constrained to unassigned funds minus 25% of unrealized capital gains or (3) the lesser of (a) 10.0% of capital surplus or (b) net investment income plus a three year carry forward with dividends payable constrained to unassigned funds minus 25% of unrealized capital gains.

Alternatively, a Florida domestic insurer may pay a dividend or distribution without the prior written approval of the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (1) if the dividend is equal to or less than the greater of (a) 10.0% of the insurer’s capital surplus as regards policyholders derived from realized net operating profits on its business and net realized capital gains or (b) the insurer’s entire net operating profits and realized net capital gains derived during the immediately preceding calendar year, (2) the insurer will have policy holder capital surplus equal to or exceeding 115.0% of the minimum

53

required statutory capital surplus after the dividend or distribution, (3) the insurer files a notice of the dividend or distribution with the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation at least ten business days prior to the dividend payment or distribution and (4) the notice includes a certification by an officer of the insurer attesting that, after the payment of the dividend or distribution, the insurer will have at least 115% of required statutory capital surplus as to policyholders. Except as provided above, a Florida domiciled insurer may only pay a dividend or make a distribution (1) subject to prior approval by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation or (2) 30 days after the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation has received notice of such dividend or distribution and has not disapproved it within such time.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, our insurance subsidiaries did not pay dividend to HCI.

However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2018 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2018.

In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, management was required to make certain judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the financial reporting date and throughout the periods being reported upon. Certain of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and consequently actual results may differ from these estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are related to the Company’s losses and loss adjustment expenses, which include amounts estimated for claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company uses various assumptions and actuarial data it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to make these estimates. In addition, accounting policies specific to reinsurance with retrospective provisions, reinsurance recoverable, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation expense involve significant judgments and estimates material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company adopted the following accounting standards effective January 1, 2018.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company elected to use a modified retrospective method for transition to the new revenue recognition standard. The impact is limited to certain revenue generating activities that are not material to the Company’s results of operations.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01 (“ASU 2016-01”), Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10). ASU 2016-01 amends the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 requires all equity investments other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through income. ASU 2016-01 also supersedes the guidance that requires classification of equity securities with readily determinable fair values into either “trading” or “available-for-sale.” Upon adoption of this standard, the after-tax net unrealized holding gains of $4,168 in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2017, which pertain to available-for-sale equity securities and represent a cumulative-effect amount, were reclassified to beginning retained income. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of equity securities have now been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income in the prior period. In addition, previously reported available-for-sale and trading equity securities of $58,911 and $1,045, respectively, at December 31, 2017 are combined and presented as equity securities on the comparative balance sheet. Certain prior-period disclosures related to equity securities are reorganized to conform with current period presentation.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. ASU 2016-18 amends guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption of this standard, restricted cash is now included with cash and cash equivalents when the Company reconciles the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the prior period presented is retrospectively restated to comply with the new standard. This change in classification and presentation of restricted cash increases the previously reported cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $24,256 to $24,365.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-09 (“ASU 2017-09”), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an application of modification accounting. The adoption of this standard will impact the Company’s accounting for any future modification of its existing share-based awards.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02 (“ASU 2018-02”), Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). ASU 2018-02 primarily allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained income for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The Company elected to early adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2018. As a result, the Company decreases beginning retained income and increases accumulated other comprehensive income by $984 of the net deferred tax effects pertaining to available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities as of December 31, 2017.

Equity Securities

Equity securities represent ownership interests held by the Company in entities for investment purpose. Prior to January 1, 2018, these equity securities were classified as either available-for-sale or trading and were carried at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Unrealized holding gains and losses from the changes in the fair values of available-for-sale equity securities were reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. Effective January 1, 2018, unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statement of income as net unrealized investment gains and losses. As a result, other-than-temporary impairments will no longer be considered for equity securities. Realized investment gains and losses from sales are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the FIFO method (see Equity Securities in Note 4 – “Investments”).

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments represent certificates of deposit issued by financial institutions with original maturities of more than three months but less than one year at date of acquisition. These short-term investments are carried at cost.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. For example, certain payroll-related costs such as share-based compensation expense, payroll taxes and employee benefits, which were previously reported in other operating expenses totaling $1,972 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, were reclassified to general and administrative personnel expenses to conform with the 2018 presentation.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standard to be Adopted in Fiscal Year 2019

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842). The guidance establishes new principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. ASU 2016-02 supersedes accounting for leases prescribed in Topic 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 leaves lessor accounting substantially unchanged. The key change affecting the Company is the requirement that operating leases be recorded on the balance sheet. The Company is required to use a modified retrospective method and apply this standard at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company has identified lease contracts that will be affected by this standard. The Company has not yet determined whether to apply the practical expedients related to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct cost for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on its financial position.

Other-than-temporary Impairment

The Company regularly reviews its individual investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company considers various factors in determining whether each individual security is other-than-temporarily impaired, including-

• the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings;

• the length of time and the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost;

• general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors and other qualitative factors;

• nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and

• the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of costs.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized $40 of impairment loss on one fixed-maturity security. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $62 attributable to the sale of one intent-to-sell fixed-maturity security. At March 31, 2018, one fixed-maturity security was considered other-than-temporarily impaired versus two fixed-maturity securities at March 31, 2017.

The following table presents a rollforward of the cumulative credit losses in other-than-temporary impairments recognized in income from available for sale fixed-maturity securities.

Note 5 – Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income and other comprehensive income or loss, which for the Company includes changes in unrealized gains or losses of available-for-sale investments carried at fair value and changes in the unrealized other-than-temporary impairment losses related to these investments. Reclassification adjustments for realized (gains) losses are reflected in net realized investment gains (losses) on the consolidated statements of income. The components of other comprehensive income or loss and the related tax effects allocated to each component were as follows:

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company records and discloses certain financial assets at their estimated fair value. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1    –	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2    –	Other inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly such as quoted prices for identical assets that are not observable throughout the full term of the asset.
Level 3    –	Inputs that are unobservable.

Valuation Methodology

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money-market funds. Their carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity and high liquidity of these funds.

Short-term investments

Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposit maturing in six months. Due to their short maturity, the carrying value approximates fair value.

Fixed-maturity and equity securities

Estimated fair values of the Company’s fixed-maturity and equity securities are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair values are generally measured using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar securities. In those instances where observable inputs are not available, fair values are measured using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value estimates derived from unobservable inputs are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rates and the estimated amounts and timing of future cash flows. The derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.

The estimated fair values for securities that do not trade on a daily basis are determined by management, utilizing prices obtained from an independent pricing service and information provided by brokers, which are level 2 inputs. Management reviews the assumptions and methods utilized by the pricing service and then compares the relevant data and pricing to broker-provided data. The Company gains assurance of the overall reasonableness and consistent application of the assumptions and methodologies and compliance with accounting standards for fair value determination through ongoing monitoring of the reported fair values.

Limited Partnership Investments

As described in Note 4 – “Investments” under Limited Partnership Investments, the Company has interests in limited partnerships which are private equity funds. Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, these funds are required to use fair value accounting; therefore, the estimated fair value approximates the carrying value of these funds.

Long-term debt

The following table summarizes components of the Company’s long-term debt and methods used in estimating their fair values:

	Maturity Date		Valuation Methodology
3.875% Convertible Senior Notes		2019	Quoted price

Convertible Senior Notes

3.875% Convertible Notes. Since January 2015, the Company’s cash dividends on common stock have exceeded $0.275 per share, resulting in adjustments to the conversion rate of the 3.875% Convertible Notes. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2018, the conversion rate of the Company’s 3.875% Convertible Notes was 16.2521 shares of common stock for each $1 in principal amount, which was the equivalent of approximately $61.53 per share.

The effective interest rates for the 3.875% Convertible Notes and the 4.25% Convertible Notes, taking into account both cash and non-cash components, approximate 8.3% and 7.6%, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, the remaining amortization periods of the debt discounts were expected to be 11 months for the 3.875% Convertible Notes and 3.9 years for the 4.25% Convertible Notes.

Reinsurance

Note 9 – Reinsurance

The Company cedes a portion of its insurance exposure to other entities under catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts and one quota share reinsurance agreements. The Company remains liable for claims payments in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentrations of credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities or economic characteristics of the reinsurers to minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies. The Company contracts with a number of reinsurers to secure its annual reinsurance coverage, which generally becomes effective June 1st each year. The Company purchases reinsurance each year taking into consideration probable maximum losses and reinsurance market conditions.

The impact of the reinsurance contracts on premiums written and earned is as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2018			2017
Premiums Written:
Direct	$	70,225		$	72,386
Assumed		(78	)		(961	)
Gross written		70,147			71,425
Ceded		(32,250	)		(28,583	)
Net premiums written	$	37,897		$	42,842
Premiums Earned:

Assumed		943			5,347
Gross earned		85,772			91,619
Ceded		(32,250	)		(28,583	)
Net premiums earned	$	53,522		$	63,036

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, ceded losses of $205 were recognized as a reduction in losses and loss adjustment expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, there were no recoveries pertaining to reinsurance contracts that were deducted from losses incurred. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 37 reinsurers participating in the Company’s reinsurance program. Amounts receivable with respect to reinsurers at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $85,943 and 103,104, respectively. Approximately 30.6% of the reinsurance recoverable balance at March 31, 2018 was concentrated in two reinsurers. Based on the insurance ratings, the payment history and the financial strength of the reinsurers, management believes there was no significant credit risk associated with its reinsurers’ obligations to perform on any prepaid reinsurance contract and to fund any reinsurance recoverable balance as of March 31, 2018.

Certain of the reinsurance contracts include retrospective provisions that adjust premiums, increase the amount of future coverage, or result in a profit commission in the event losses are minimal or zero. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized net premiums ceded of $337 related to these adjustments, of which $48 was attributable to the Company’s contract with Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited, a related party. In contrast, these adjustments were reflected in the consolidated statements of income as a net reduction in ceded premiums of $3,322 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, of which $576 related to the Company’s contract with Oxbridge.

In addition, adjustments related to retrospective provisions are reflected in other assets. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, other assets included $2,822 and $2,393, respectively, of which $564 and $479 related to the contract with Oxbridge. Management believes the credit risk associated with the collectability of these accrued benefits is minimal as the amount receivable is concentrated with one reinsurer and the Company monitors the creditworthiness of this reinsurer based on available information about the reinsurer’s financial condition.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Note 10 – Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses is determined on an individual case basis for all claims reported. The liability also includes amounts for unallocated expenses, anticipated future claim development and losses incurred, but not reported.

The Company writes insurance in the state of Florida, which could be exposed to hurricanes or other natural catastrophes. The occurrence of a major catastrophe could have a significant effect on the Company’s quarterly results and cause a temporary disruption of the normal operations of the Company. However, the Company is unable to predict the frequency or severity of any such events that may occur in the near term or thereafter.

Activity in the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses is summarized as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

The establishment of loss reserves is an inherently uncertain process and changes in loss reserve estimates are expected as these estimates are subject to the outcome of future events. Changes in estimates, or differences between estimates and amounts ultimately paid, are reflected in the operating results of the period during which such estimates are adjusted. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company established loss reserves of $19,655 which primarily pertains to claims in the 2018 loss year.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Note 11 – Segment Information

The Company identifies its operating divisions based on organizational structure and revenue source. Currently, the Company has three reportable segments: insurance operations, real estate operations, and corporate and other. Due to their economic characteristics, the Company’s property and casualty insurance division and reinsurance division are grouped together into one reportable segment under insurance operations. The real estate operations segment includes companies engaged in operating commercial properties the Company owns for investment purposes or for use in its own operations. The corporate and other segment represents the activities of the holding companies, the information technology division, and other companies that do not meet the quantitative thresholds for a reportable segment. The determination of segments may change over time due to changes in operational emphasis, revenues, and results of operations. The Company’s chief executive officer, who serves as the Company’s chief operating decision maker, evaluates each division’s financial and operating performance based on revenue and operating income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, revenues from the Company’s insurance operations before intracompany elimination represented 94.8% and 96.5%, respectively, of total revenues of all operating segments. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, insurance operations’ total assets represented 86.1% and 87.1%, respectively, of the combined assets of all operating segments. In addition, there was no other operating division representing ten percent or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of the combined profits of all operating divisions reporting a profit or the combined losses of all operating divisions reporting a loss. The following tables present segment information reconciled to the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Intersegment transactions are not eliminated from segment results.

Income Taxes

Note 12 – Income Taxes

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded approximately $4,013 and $7,122, respectively, of income taxes, which resulted in effective tax rates of 27.1% and 37.2%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2018 as compared with the corresponding period in the prior year was primarily attributable to the reduction of the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, offset by an increase in nondeductible compensation expenses due to the elimination of the deductibility of most performance based compensation, resulting from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017. The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal tax rate due to state and foreign income taxes as well as certain nondeductible and tax-exempt items.

Note 13 – Earnings Per Share

U.S. GAAP requires the Company to use the two-class method in computing basic earnings per share since holders of the Company’s restricted stock have the right to share in dividends, if declared, equally with common stockholders. These participating securities affect the computation of both basic and diluted earnings per share during periods of net income or loss.

Restricted Stock Awards

From time to time, the Company has granted and may grant restricted stock awards to its executive officers, other employees and nonemployee directors in connection with their service to the Company. The terms of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock grants may include service, performance and market-based conditions. The fair value of the awards with market-based conditions is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method, which calculates many potential outcomes for an award and then establishes fair value based on the most likely outcome. The determination of fair value with respect to the awards containing only performance or service-based conditions is based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Information with respect to the activity of unvested restricted stock awards during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is as follows:

	Number of Restricted Stock Awards			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1, 2018		597,690		$	32.82

The Company recognized compensation expense related to restricted stock, which is included in general and administrative personnel expenses, of $762 and $1,006 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there was approximately $9,098 and $9,101, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted stock arrangements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements for HCI Group, Inc. and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2018 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2018.

In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, management was required to make certain judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the financial reporting date and throughout the periods being reported upon. Certain of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and consequently actual results may differ from these estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term are related to the Company’s losses and loss adjustment expenses, which include amounts estimated for claims incurred but not yet reported. The Company uses various assumptions and actuarial data it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to make these estimates. In addition, accounting policies specific to reinsurance with retrospective provisions, reinsurance recoverable, deferred income taxes, and stock-based compensation expense involve significant judgments and estimates material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company adopted the following accounting standards effective January 1, 2018.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company elected to use a modified retrospective method for transition to the new revenue recognition standard. The impact is limited to certain revenue generating activities that are not material to the Company’s results of operations.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01 (“ASU 2016-01”), Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10). ASU 2016-01 amends the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 requires all equity investments other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through income. ASU 2016-01 also supersedes the guidance that requires classification of equity securities with readily determinable fair values into either “trading” or “available-for-sale.” Upon adoption of this standard, the after-tax net unrealized holding gains of $4,168 in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2017, which pertain to available-for-sale equity securities and represent a cumulative-effect amount, were reclassified to beginning retained income. Any subsequent changes in the fair value of equity securities have now been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of income rather than in accumulated other comprehensive income in the prior period. In addition, previously reported available-for-sale and trading equity securities of $58,911 and $1,045, respectively, at December 31, 2017 are combined and presented as equity securities on the comparative balance sheet. Certain prior-period disclosures related to equity securities are reorganized to conform with current period presentation.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. ASU 2016-18 amends guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption of this standard, restricted cash is now included with cash and cash equivalents when the Company reconciles the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the prior period presented is retrospectively restated to comply with the new standard. This change in classification and presentation of restricted cash increases the previously reported cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $24,256 to $24,365.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-09 (“ASU 2017-09”), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an application of modification accounting. The adoption of this standard will impact the Company’s accounting for any future modification of its existing share-based awards.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02 (“ASU 2018-02”), Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). ASU 2018-02 primarily allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained income for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The Company elected to early adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2018. As a result, the Company decreases beginning retained income and increases accumulated other comprehensive income by $984 of the net deferred tax effects pertaining to available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities as of December 31, 2017.

Equity Securities

Equity Securities

Equity securities represent ownership interests held by the Company in entities for investment purpose. Prior to January 1, 2018, these equity securities were classified as either available-for-sale or trading and were carried at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Unrealized holding gains and losses from the changes in the fair values of available-for-sale equity securities were reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. Effective January 1, 2018, unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statement of income as net unrealized investment gains and losses. As a result, other-than-temporary impairments will no longer be considered for equity securities. Realized investment gains and losses from sales are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the FIFO method (see Equity Securities in Note 4 – “Investments”).

Short-Term Investments

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments represent certificates of deposit issued by financial institutions with original maturities of more than three months but less than one year at date of acquisition. These short-term investments are carried at cost.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation. For example, certain payroll-related costs such as share-based compensation expense, payroll taxes and employee benefits, which were previously reported in other operating expenses totaling $1,972 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, were reclassified to general and administrative personnel expenses to conform with the 2018 presentation.
