Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
| 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| |
A. | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
ICC Holdings, Inc. is a Pennsylvania corporation that was organized in 2016. As used in this Form 10-Q, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the consolidated group. On a stand-alone basis ICC Holdings, Inc. is referred to as the “Parent Company.” The consolidated group consists of the holding company, ICC Holdings, Inc.; ICC Realty, LLC, a real estate services and holding company; Beverage Insurance Agency, Inc., a non-insurance subsidiary; Estrella Innovative Solutions, Inc., an outsourcing company; Southern Hospitality Education, LLC, dba Katkin, a full-service food safety and education company; and Illinois Casualty Company (ICC), an operating insurance company that is the parent company of ICC Properties, LLC, a real estate series limited liability company. Both ICC and ICC Properties, LLC are Illinois domiciled companies.
We are a specialty insurance carrier primarily underwriting commercial multi-peril, liquor liability, workers’ compensation, and umbrella liability coverages for the food and beverage industry through our subsidiary insurance company, ICC. ICC writes business in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin and markets through independent agents. Approximately

B. | PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As such, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”). Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, and all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2022 the results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. These amounts are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
| |
C. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The Company reported its significant accounting policies in the 2021 10-K.
| |
D. | PROSPECTIVE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS |
For information regarding accounting standards that the Company has not yet adopted, see the “Prospective Accounting Standards” in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2021 10-K. The Company maintains its status as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We have taken advantage of the extended transition period provided by Section 107 of the JOBS Act. We decided to comply with the effective dates for financial accounting standards applicable to emerging growth companies later in compliance with the requirements in Sections 107(b)(2) and (3) of the JOBS Act. Such decision is irrevocable. These exemptions will expire following the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022.
ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial statements. Current GAAP delays the recognition of credit losses until lit is probable a loss has been incurred. The update will require a financial asset measured at amortized cost, including reinsurance balances recoverable, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by means of an allowance for credit losses that runs through earnings. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. However, the amendments would limit the amount of the allowance to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. This ASU impacts the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The Company expects investments, premiums and reinsurance balances receivable, ceded unearned premiums, and reinsurance balances recoverable on unpaid losses and settlement expenses to be impacted by allowances for credit losses.
| E. | PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT |
Annually, the Company reviews the major asset classes of property and equipment held for impairment. For the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized no impairments. Property and equipment are summarized as follows:
| As of | ||||||||

F. | COMPREHENSIVE EARNINGS |

G. | RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to our day-to-day operations. Adverse changes in the economy could lower demand for our insurance products or negatively impact our investment results, both of which could have an adverse effect on the revenue and profitability of our operations. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and could continue to result in, significant disruptions in economic activity and financial markets. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, inflation and related monetary policy responses, and recession fears are also causing volatility. The cumulative effects of these events on the Company cannot be predicted, but could reduce demand for our insurance policies, result in increased level of losses, settlement expenses or other operating costs, or reduce the market value of invested assets held by the Company.
| 2. | INVESTMENTS |
The Company’s investments are primarily composed of fixed income debt securities and common and preferred equity securities. We carry our equity securities at fair value and categorize all our fixed maturity debt securities as available-for-sale (AFS), which are carried at fair value. When available, quoted market prices are obtained to determine fair value for the Company’s investments. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using a secondary pricing source or using quoted market prices of similar securities. The Company has no investment securities for which fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs as defined in Note 3 – Fair Value Disclosures. Realized gains and losses on disposition of investments are based on specific identification of the investments sold on the settlement date, which does not differ significantly from trade date accounting.
Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturity and Equity Securities
The following tables are a summary of the proceeds from sales, maturities, and calls of AFS fixed maturity and equity securities and the related gross realized gains and losses.

There were other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized in net earnings during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. For all fixed income securities at a loss at September 30, 2022, management believes it is probable that the Company will receive all contractual payments in the form of principal and interest. In addition, the Company is not required to, nor does it intend to sell these investments prior to recovering the entire amortized cost basis for each security, which may be at maturity. The fixed income securities in an unrealized loss position were not other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

| 3. | FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES |
Fair value is defined as the price in the principal market that would be received for an asset to facilitate an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value of certain financial instruments is determined based on their underlying characteristics and relevant transactions in the marketplace. GAAP guidance requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
The following are the levels of the fair value hierarchy and a brief description of the type of valuation inputs that are used to establish each level:
| ● | Level 1 is applied to valuations based on readily available, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. |
| ● | Level 2 is applied to valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets; or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severities) or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| ● | Level 3 is applied to valuations that are derived from techniques in which one or more of the significant inputs are unobservable. Financial assets are classified based upon the lowest level of significant input that is used to determine fair value. |
As a part of the process to determine fair value, management utilizes widely recognized, third-party pricing sources to determine fair values. Management has obtained an understanding of the third-party pricing sources’ valuation methodologies and inputs. The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for financial assets that are measured at fair value, including the general classification of such assets pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.
Corporate, Agencies, and Municipal Bonds—The pricing vendor employs a multi-dimensional model which uses standard inputs including (listed in order of priority for use) benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, market bids/offers and other reference data. The pricing vendor also monitors market indicators, as well as industry and economic events. All bonds valued using these techniques are classified as Level 2. All Corporate, Agencies, and Municipal securities are deemed Level 2.
Mortgage-backed Securities (MBS), Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO), Commercial Mortgage-backed Securities (CMBS) and Asset-backed Securities (ABS)—The pricing vendor evaluation methodology includes principally interest rate movements and new issue data. Evaluation of the tranches (non-volatile, volatile, or credit sensitivity) is based on the pricing vendors’ interpretation of accepted modeling and pricing conventions. This information is then used to determine the cash flows for each tranche, benchmark yields, pre-payment assumptions and to incorporate collateral performance. To evaluate CMO volatility, an option adjusted spread model is used in combination with models that simulate interest rate paths to determine market price information. This process allows the pricing vendor to obtain evaluations of a broad universe of securities in a way that reflects changes in yield curve, index rates, implied volatility, mortgage rates, and recent trade activity. MBS, CMBS, CMO and ABS with corroborated and observable inputs are classified as Level 2. All MBS, CMBS, CMO and ABS holdings are deemed Level 2.
U.S. Treasury Bonds, Common Stocks and Exchange Traded Funds—U.S. treasury bonds and exchange traded equities have readily observable price levels and are classified as Level 1 (fair value based on quoted market prices). All common stock holdings are deemed Level 1.
Preferred Stock—Preferred stocks do not have readily observable prices but do have quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices and are classified as Level 2. All preferred stock holdings are deemed Level 2.
Due to the relatively short-term nature of cash and cash equivalents, their carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of fair value. Other invested assets include notes receivable, stock, and a membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (FHLBC). Notes receivable are carried at outstanding balance plus accrued interest. Stock and the membership in FHLBC are carried at cost.

| 5. | REINSURANCE |
In the ordinary course of business, the Company assumes and cedes premiums and selected insured risks with other insurance companies, known as reinsurance. A large portion of the reinsurance is put into effect under contracts known as treaties and, in some instances, by negotiation on each individual risk (known as facultative reinsurance). In addition, there are several types of treaties including quota share, excess of loss and catastrophe reinsurance contracts that protect against losses over stipulated amounts arising from any one occurrence or event. The arrangements allow the Company to pursue greater diversification of business and serve to limit the maximum net loss to a single event, such as a catastrophe. Through the quantification of exposed policy limits in each region and the extensive use of computer-assisted modeling techniques, management monitors the concentration of risks exposed to catastrophic events.
Through the purchase of reinsurance, the Company also generally limits its net loss on any individual risk to a maximum of $

Management believes it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be recovered as the result of future operations, which will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company does have any capital or operating loss carryforwards. Periods still subject to IRS audit include 2018 through current year. Unrealized losses on the investment portfolio during 2022 have moved the Company from a net deferred tax liability position as of December 31, 2021 to a net deferred tax asset position as of September 30, 2022. There are currently no open tax exams.

Overview
ICC is a regional property and casualty insurance company incorporated in Illinois and focused exclusively on the food and beverage industry. On the effective date of the mutual-to-public company conversion, ICC became a wholly owned subsidiary of ICC Holdings, Inc.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had direct written premiums of $61,695,000, net premiums earned of $50,766,000, and net loss of $(3,659,000). For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had direct premiums written of $52,045,000, net premiums earned of $38,861,000, and net earnings of $2,149,000. At September 30, 2022, we had total assets of $189,425,000 and equity of $56,649,000. At December 31, 2021, we had total assets $200,002,000 of and equity of $74,704,000.
We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to: not required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; exemptions from the requirements of holding an annual non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and nonbinding stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have taken advantage of the extended transition period provided by Section 107 of the JOBS Act. We decided to comply with the effective dates for financial accounting standards applicable to emerging growth companies later in compliance with the requirements in Sections 107(b)(2) and (3) of the JOBS Act. Such decision is irrevocable.
Our “emerging growth company” status will expire in connection with the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Principal Revenue and Expense Items
We derive our revenue primarily from premiums earned, net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains (losses) from investments.
Gross and net premiums written
Gross premiums written is equal to direct and assumed premiums before the effect of ceded reinsurance. Net premiums written is the difference between gross premiums written and premiums ceded or paid to reinsurers (ceded premiums written).
Net premiums earned
Premiums earned is the earned portion of our net premiums written. Gross premiums written include all premiums recorded by an insurance company during a specified policy period. Insurance premiums on property and casualty insurance contracts are recognized in proportion to the underlying risk insured and are earned ratably over the duration of the policies. At the end of each accounting period, the portion of the premiums that is not yet earned is included in unearned premiums and is realized as revenue in subsequent periods over the remaining term of the policy. Our policies typically have a term of twelve months. Thus, for example, for a policy that is written on July 1, 2022, one-half of the premiums would be earned in 2022 and the other half would be earned in 2023.
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) on investments
We invest our surplus and the funds supporting our insurance liabilities (including unearned premiums and unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses) in cash, cash equivalents, equities, fixed securities, and real estate. Investment income includes interest and dividends earned on invested assets as well as rental income on investment properties. Net realized gains and losses on invested assets are reported separately from net investment income. We recognize realized gains when invested assets are sold for an amount greater than their cost or amortized cost (in the case of fixed securities) and recognize realized losses when investment securities are written down as a result of an other-than-temporary impairment or sold for an amount less than their cost or amortized cost, as applicable. We recognize in earnings the change in unrealized gains and losses on equity securities when our equity securities are trading at an amount greater than or less than their cost, respectively. Net unrealized (losses) on equity securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $(1,084,000) and $(6,181,000), respectively. Net unrealized (losses) gains for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 for equity securities were $(212,000) and $1,393,000, respectively. Our portfolio of investment securities is managed by two independent third parties with managers specializing in the insurance industry.
ICC’s expenses consist primarily of:
Losses and settlement expenses
Losses and settlement expenses represent the largest expense item and include: (1) claim payments made, (2) estimates for future claim payments and changes in those estimates for prior periods, and (3) costs associated with investigating, defending, and adjusting claims.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses
Expenses incurred to underwrite risks are referred to as policy acquisition expenses. Variable policy acquisition costs consist of commission expenses, premium taxes and certain other underwriting expenses that vary with and are primarily related to the writing and acquisition of new and renewal business. These policy acquisition costs are deferred and amortized over the effective period of the related insurance policies. Fixed policy acquisition costs are expensed as incurred. These costs include salaries, rent, office supplies, and depreciation. Other operating expenses consist primarily of information technology costs, accounting, and internal control salaries, as well as audit and legal expenses.
Income taxes
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from the recognition of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of our assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period of the enactment date.
Key Financial Measures
We evaluate our insurance operations by monitoring certain key measures of growth and profitability. In addition to reviewing our financial performance based on results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we utilize certain operational financial measures that we believe are valuable in managing our business and for comparison to our peers. These operational measures are combined ratio, written premiums, underwriting income, the losses and settlement expense ratio, the expense ratio, the ratio of net written premiums to statutory surplus and return on average equity.
We measure growth by monitoring changes in gross premiums written and net premiums written. We measure underwriting profitability by examining losses and settlement expense, underwriting expense, and combined ratios. We also measure profitability by examining underwriting income (loss) and net earnings (loss).
Losses and settlement expense ratio
The losses and settlement expense ratio is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of losses and settlement expenses incurred to net premiums earned. We measure the losses and settlement expense ratio on an accident year and calendar year loss basis to measure underwriting profitability. An accident year loss ratio measures losses and settlement expenses for insured events occurring in a particular year, regardless of when they are reported, as a percentage of premiums earned during that year. A calendar year loss ratio measures loss and settlement expense for insured events occurring during a particular year and the change in loss reserves from prior accident years as a percentage of premiums earned during that year.
Expense ratio
The underwriting expense ratio is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses to premiums earned, and measures our operational efficiency in producing, underwriting, and administering our insurance business.
GAAP combined ratio
Our GAAP combined ratio is the sum of the losses and settlement expense ratio and the expense ratio and measures our overall underwriting profit. If the GAAP combined ratio is below 100%, we are making an underwriting profit. If our combined ratio is at or above 100%, we are not profitable without investment income and may not be profitable if investment income is insufficient.
Net premiums written to statutory surplus ratio
The net premiums written to statutory surplus ratio represents the ratio of net premiums written, after reinsurance ceded, to statutory surplus. This ratio measures our exposure to pricing errors in our current book of business. The higher the ratio, the greater the impact on surplus should pricing prove inadequate.
Underwriting income (loss)
Underwriting income (loss) measures the pre-tax profitability of our insurance operations. It is derived by subtracting losses and settlement expense, amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs, and underwriting and administrative expenses from net earned premiums. Each of these items is presented as a caption in our statements of earnings.
Net earnings (loss) and return on average equity
We use net earnings (loss) to measure our profit and return on average equity to measure our effectiveness in utilizing equity to generate net earnings. In determining return on average equity for a given year, net earnings (loss) is divided by the average of the beginning and ending equity for that year.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting policies and estimates considered by management to be critically important in the preparation and understanding of the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures are presented in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Results of Operations
Our results of operations are influenced by factors affecting the property and casualty insurance industry in general. The operating results of the United States property and casualty insurance industry are subject to significant variations due to competition, weather, catastrophic events, regulation, general economic conditions, judicial trends, fluctuations in interest rates and other changes in the investment environment.
Our premium and underwriting results have been, and continue to be, influenced by market conditions. Pricing in the property and casualty insurance industry historically has been cyclical. During a soft market cycle, price competition is more significant than during a hard market cycle and makes it difficult to attract and retain properly priced commercial business. A hard market typically has a positive effect on premium growth.
The following summarizes our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Direct premiums written grew by $9,650,000, or 18.5%, to $61,695,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $52,045,000 for the same period of 2021. Net written premium increased by $10,841,000, or 24.7%, to $54,737,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $43,896,000 for the same period in 2021. Net premiums earned grew by $11,905,000, or 30.6%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consistent with our increased premium writings in 2022 and 2021 coupled with less earned premium ceded to reinsurers.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we ceded to reinsurers $7,077,000 of earned premiums, compared to $8,087,000 of earned premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Ceded earned premiums as a percent of direct premiums written decreased to 11.5% from 15.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due to lower reinsurance costs.
Premiums are earned ratably over the term of the policy whereas written premiums are reflected on the effective date of the policy.
Investment Income
Net investment income increased by $488,000, or 20.3%, to $2,897,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $2,409,000 for the same period in 2021. These increases are a result of increased rates on our fixed income portfolio and an increase in overall investment holdings.
Other Income
Other income is derived from policies we write and represents additional charges to policyholders for services outside of the premium charge, such as installment billing or policy issuance costs. Another component of other income is attributable to sales made by the Company’s subsidiary, Katkin, which was acquired in October 2021. Other income increased by $137,000, or 69.4%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 which did not include the operating results of Katkin.

Net unpaid losses and settlement expenses increased by $7,047,000, or 15.1%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we experienced unfavorable development of $5,081,000 and $1,464,000, respectively. The unfavorable development for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by additional information received on prior accident year claims for the following lines of business and denoted accident years: Business Owners Liability (2020; one claim & 2017; one claim) and Liquor Liability (2021; two claims & 2020; one claim). The Business Owners Liability and Business Owners Property lines of business was the primary driver of adverse development for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Losses and Settlement Expenses
Losses and settlement expenses increased by $9,108,000, or 36.0%, to $34,390,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, from $25,282,000 for the same period in 2021. The increase in losses and settlement expenses was driven in part by increased earned premium in 2022 and the $5,081,000 in prior year adverse loss development.
Policy Acquisition Costs and Other Operating Expenses and the Expense Ratio
Policy acquisition costs are costs we incur to issue policies, which include commissions, premium taxes, underwriting reports, and underwriter compensation costs. The Company offsets the direct commissions it pays with ceded commissions it receives from reinsurers. Other operating expenses consist primarily of information technology costs, accounting, and internal control salaries, as well as audit and legal expenses. Policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses increased by $3,179,000, or 21.3%, to $18,136,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $14,957,000 for the same period in 2021. The increase in these expenses is mainly due to increased commissions consistent with the current period’s premium growth experienced across our market footprint. In addition, the Company provided non-executive employees cost of living adjustments in recognition of inflation’s current impact on employees and had a slight increase in salaries paid to temporary employees.
Our expense ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of policy acquisition costs and operating expenses by net earned premiums. We use the expense ratio to evaluate the operating efficiency of our consolidated operations. Costs that cannot be readily identifiable as a direct cost of a product line remain in general corporate expenses.
Our expense ratio decreased by 277 basis points from 38.5% to 35.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The primary driver for this change was an increase in earned premium offset slightly by the increase in acquisition and operating expenses discussed above.
General Corporate Expenses
General corporate expenses consist primarily of occupancy costs, such as rent and utilities. These costs are largely fixed and, therefore, do not vary significantly with premium volume but do vary with the Company’s changes in properties held for investment. Our general corporate expenses increased by $33,000, or 6.1%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $150,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $174,000 for the same period during 2021.
Income Tax Expense
We reported income tax benefit of $981,000 and income tax expense of $591,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense in 2022 relates to a pretax loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to pretax earnings for the same period in 2021. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was 21.1%, compared to 21.6% for the same period in 2021. Effective rates are dependent upon components of pretax earnings and losses and the related tax effects.
The Company has not established a valuation allowance against any of the net deferred tax assets.
The following summarizes our results for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:
Premiums
Direct premiums written grew by $2,543,000, or 13.9%, to $20,900,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $18,357,000 for the same period of 2021. Net written premium increased by $2,824,000, or 18.1%, to $18,410,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $15,586,000 for the same period in 2021. Net premiums earned grew by $3,646,000, or 25.9%, in the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, consistent with our increased premium writings in 2022 and 2021 coupled with less earned premium ceded to reinsurers.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we ceded to reinsurers $2,554,000 of earned premiums, compared to $2,798,000 of earned premiums for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Ceded earned premiums as a percent of direct premiums written decreased to 12.2% from 15.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to lower reinsurance costs.
Premiums are earned ratably over the term of the policy whereas written premiums are reflected on the effective date of the policy.
Investment Income
Net investment income increased by $204,000, or 24.7% to $1,028,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $824,000 for the same period in 2021. These increases are the result of increased rates on our fixed income portfolio and an increase in overall investment holdings.
Other Income
Other income is derived from policies we write and represents additional charges to policyholders for services outside of the premium charge, such as installment billing or policy issuance costs. Another component of other income is attributable to sales made by the Company’s subsidiary, Katkin, which was acquired in October 2021. Other income increased by $26,000 or 45.8% during the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Losses and Settlement Expenses
Losses and settlement expenses increased by $1,572,000, or 17.8%, to $10,387,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, from $8,815,000 for the same period in 2021. The increase in losses and settlement expenses was driven in part by increased earned premium in 2022 and the $561,000 in prior year adverse loss development.
Policy Acquisition Costs and Other Operating Expenses and the Expense Ratio
Policy acquisition costs are costs we incur to issue policies, which include commissions, premium taxes, underwriting reports, and underwriter compensation costs. The Company offsets the direct commissions it pays with ceded commissions it receives from reinsurers. Other operating expenses consist primarily of information technology costs, accounting, and internal control salaries, as well as audit and legal expenses. Policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses increased by $918,000, or 16.9%, to $6,361,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $5,443,000 for the same period in 2021. The increase is mainly due to increased commissions consistent with premium growth, increased salaries due to 2022 raises, and a decrease in self-funded medical claims expense.
Our expense ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of policy acquisition costs and operating expenses by net earned premiums. We use the expense ratio to evaluate the operating efficiency of our consolidated operations. Costs that cannot be readily identifiable as a direct cost of a product line remain in general corporate expenses.
Our expense ratio decreased by 279 basis points from 38.7% to 35.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The primary driver for this change was an increase in earned premium.
General Corporate Expenses
General corporate expenses consist primarily of occupancy costs, such as rent and utilities. These costs are largely fixed and, therefore, do not vary significantly with premium volume but do vary with the Company’s changes in properties held for investment. Our general corporate expenses increased by $19,000, or 10.9%, in the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $46,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $62,000 for the same period during 2021.
Income Tax Expense
We reported income tax expense of $181,000 and income tax expense of $122,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in income tax expense for three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 is due to increased net income driven by earned premiums in Q3 2022. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was 22.3%, compared to 22.4% for the same period in 2021. Effective rates are dependent upon components of pretax earnings and losses and the related tax effects.
The Company has not established a valuation allowance against any of the net deferred tax assets.

Our actuary determined a range of reasonable reserve estimates which reflect the uncertainty inherent in the loss reserve process. This range does not represent the range of all possible outcomes. We believe that the actuarially determined ranges represent reasonably likely changes in the loss and settlement expense estimates, however actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. The range was determined by line of business and accident year after a review of the output generated by the various actuarial methods utilized. The actuary reviewed the variance around the select loss reserve estimates for each of the actuarial methods and selected reasonable low and high estimates based on his knowledge and judgment. In making these judgments the actuary typically assumed, based on his experience, that the larger the reserve the less volatility and that property reserves would exhibit less volatility than casualty reserves. In addition, when selecting these low and high estimates, the actuary considered:
| ● |
historical industry development experience in our business line; |
| ● |
historical company development experience; |
| ● |
the impact of court decisions on insurance coverage issues, which can impact the ultimate cost of settling claims; |
| ● |
changes in our internal claims processing policies and procedures; and |
| ● |
trends and risks in claim costs, such as risk that medical cost inflation could increase. |
Our actuary is required to exercise a considerable degree of judgment in the evaluation of all of these and other factors in the analysis of our loss and settlement expense reserves, and related range of anticipated losses. Because of the level of uncertainty impacting the estimation process, it is reasonably possible that different actuaries would arrive at different conclusions. The method of determining the reserve range has not changed and the reserve range generated by our actuary is consistent with the observed development of our loss reserves over the last few years.
The width of the range in reserves arises primarily because specific losses may not be known and reported for some period and the ultimate losses paid and loss adjustment expenses incurred with respect to known losses may be larger than currently estimated. The ultimate frequency or severity of these claims can be very different than the assumptions we used in our estimation of ultimate reserves for these exposures.
Specifically, the following factors could impact the frequency and severity of claims, and therefore, the ultimate amount of loss and settlement expense paid:
| ● |
the rate of increase in labor costs, medical costs, and material costs that underlie insured risks; |
| ● |
development of risk associated with our expanding producer relationships and our growth in new states or states where we currently have small market share; and |
| ● |
impact of changes in laws or regulations. |
The estimation process for determining the liability for unpaid loss and settlement expense inherently results in adjustments each year for claims incurred (but not paid) in preceding years. Negative amounts reported for claims incurred related to prior years are a result of claims being settled for amounts less than originally estimated (favorable development). Positive amounts reported for claims incurred related to prior years are a result of claims being settled for amounts greater than originally estimated (unfavorable development). For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we experienced unfavorable development of $5,081,000 and $1,464,000, respectively.
Potential for variability in our reserves is evidenced by this development. As further illustration of reserve variability, we initially estimated unpaid loss and settlement expense net of reinsurance at the end of 2021 at $47,314,000. As of September 30, 2022, that reserve was re-estimated at $52,395,000, which is $5,081,000, or 10.7%, higher than the initial estimate.
The estimation of our reserves is based on several actuarial methods, each of which incorporates many quantitative assumptions. The judgment of the actuary plays an important role in selecting among various loss development factors and selecting the appropriate method, or combination of methods, to use for a given accident year.
Investments
Our investments are primarily composed of fixed maturity debt securities and both common and preferred stock equity securities. We categorize all our debt securities as available-for-sale (AFS), which are carried at fair value as determined by management based upon quoted market prices when available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using a secondary pricing source or using quoted market prices of similar securities. Changes in unrealized investment gains or losses on our AFS securities, net of applicable income taxes, are reflected directly in equity as a component of comprehensive earnings (loss) and, accordingly, have no effect on net earnings (loss). Equity securities are carried at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in net earnings (loss). Investment income is recognized when earned, and capital gains and losses are recognized when investments are sold, or other-than-temporarily impaired.

Corporate Bonds
The net unrealized gain in the Corporate bond portfolio decreased by about $7.0 million from a gain of $2,247,000 at the end of 2021 to a loss of $4,716,000 as of September 30, 2022. Two factors drove this significant decline. First was the meaningful shift higher in Treasury yields as a response to the Fed's tightening campaign and persistent inflation. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, five year and ten year Treasury rates moved up 272 bps and 224 bps, respectively. Additionally, Corporate spreads widened about 69 bps in 2022 through September, driven mainly by geopolitical concerns arising from Russia's invasion of Ukraine, inflation and related monetary policies, and the increasing probability of a recession.
Municipal Bonds
The net unrealized gain in the Municipal portfolio decreased by about $4.9 million from a gain of $1,127,000 at the end of 2021 to a loss of $3,807,000 as of September 30, 2022. Municipal prices declined as Treasury rates rose in the first nine months of 2022.
We screen the portfolio for securities that hit certain thresholds and review those securities for potential impairment. The thresholds vary by sector. For Corporates, as an example, we screen for any holding that has a market price below $80. For Municipals, we screen for securities that have an unrealized loss of more than 5% of book value. When assessing whether the amortized cost basis of the security will be recovered, we may compare the present value of the cash flows likely to be collected, based on an evaluation of all available information relevant to the collectability of the security, to the amortized cost basis of the security. The shortfall of the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected in relation to the amortized cost basis is referred to as the “credit loss.” If there is a credit loss, the impairment is other-than-temporary. If we identify that an other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) loss has occurred, we then determine whether we intend to sell the security, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security prior to recovering the amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses. If we determine that we do not intend to sell, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security, the amount of the impairment loss related to the credit loss will be recorded in earnings, and the remaining portion of the OTTI loss will be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. If we determine that we intend to sell the security, or that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security prior to recovering its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses, the full amount of the OTTI will be recognized in earnings.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not take an impairment charge on any of its security holdings. Adverse investment market conditions, or poor operating results of underlying investments, could result in impairment charges in the future.
We use quoted values and other data provided by independent pricing services in our process for determining fair values of our investments. The evaluations of such pricing services represent an exit price and a good faith opinion as to what a buyer in the marketplace would pay for a security in a current sale. This pricing service provides us with one quote per instrument. For fixed maturity securities that have quoted prices in active markets, market quotations are provided. For fixed maturity securities that do not trade daily, the independent pricing service prepares estimates of fair value using a wide array of observable inputs including relevant market information, benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing. The observable market inputs that our independent pricing service utilizes may include (listed in order of priority for use) benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, market bids/offers, and other reference data on markets, industry, and the economy. Additionally, the independent pricing service uses an option adjusted spread model to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. The pricing service did not use broker quotes in determining fair values of our investments.
Should the independent pricing service be unable to provide a fair value estimate, we would attempt to obtain a non-binding fair value estimate from a number of broker-dealers and review this estimate in conjunction with a fair value estimate reported by an independent business news service or other sources. In instances where only one broker-dealer provides a fair value for a fixed maturity security, we use that estimate. In instances where can obtain fair value estimates from more than one broker-dealer, we would review the range of estimates and would select the most appropriate value based on the facts and circumstances. Should neither the independent pricing service nor a broker-dealer provide a fair value estimate, we would develop a fair value estimate based on cash flow analyses and other valuation techniques that utilize certain unobservable inputs. Accordingly, we would classify such a security as a Level 3 investment.
The fair value estimates of our investments provided by the independent pricing service at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, were utilized, among other resources, in reaching a conclusion as to the fair value of our investments.
Management reviews the reasonableness of the pricing provided by the independent pricing service by employing various analytical procedures. We review all securities to identify recent downgrades, significant changes in pricing, and pricing anomalies on individual securities relative to other similar securities. This will include looking for relative consistency across securities in common sectors, durations, and credit ratings. This review will also include all fixed maturity securities rated lower than “A” by Moody’s or S&P. If, after this review, management does not believe the pricing for any security is a reasonable estimate of fair value, then it will seek to resolve the discrepancy through discussions with the pricing service. In our review, we did not identify any such discrepancies for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and no adjustments were made to the estimates provided by the pricing service. The classification within the fair value hierarchy of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, is then confirmed based on the final conclusions from the pricing review.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
Certain acquisition costs consisting of direct and ceded commissions, premium taxes and certain other direct underwriting expenses that vary with and are primarily related to the production of business are deferred and amortized over the effective period of the related insurance policies as the underlying policy premiums are earned. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, deferred acquisition costs and the related unearned premium reserves were as follows:

The method followed in computing deferred acquisition costs limits the amount of deferred costs to their estimated realizable value, which gives effect to the premium to be earned, related investment income, loss and loss adjustment expenses, and certain other costs expected to be incurred as the premium is earned. Future changes in estimates, the most significant of which is expected loss and loss adjustment expenses, may require adjustments to deferred policy acquisition costs. If the estimation of net realizable value indicates that the deferred acquisition costs are not recoverable, they would be written off.
Income Taxes
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from the recognition of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of our assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period of the enactment date.
We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments require us to make projections of future taxable income. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets, which are inherently subjective, are reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record an additional valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had no material unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties. Federal tax years 2018 through the current year are open for examination.
Other Assets
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, other assets totaled $2,046,000 and $1,344,000, respectively. The decrease in other assets primarily relates to a decrease in prepaids.
Outstanding Debt
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, outstanding debt balances totaled $15,000,000 and $18,455,000, respectively. The average rate on remaining debt was 1.2% and 1.3% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Debt Obligations
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $15.0 million and $18.5 million in outstanding debt, respectively.
ICC Holdings, Inc. secured a loan with a commercial bank in March 2017 in the amount of $3.5 million and used the proceeds to repay ICC for the money borrowed by the ESOP. The term of the loan is five years bearing interest at 3.65%. The Company pledged stock and $1.0 million of marketable assets as collateral for the loan. The Company paid off this loan in April 2022.
The Company also has borrowing capacity of $42.0 million, which is 25% of net admitted statutory assets of Illinois Casualty Company as of the prior year-end.
As part of the Company’s response to COVID-19, the Company obtained, in March 2020, a $6.0 million loan from the FHLBC as a precautionary measure to increase its cash position, to provide increased liquidity, and to compensate for potential reductions in premium receivable collections. The term of the loan is five years bearing interest at 1.40%.
In May 2021, the Company entered into a $4.0 million, 0.74% fixed interest, five-year FHLBC loan.
A one year FHLBC loan for $5.0 million, 0% interest was entered into in May 2021. Upon maturity in May 2022, this loan rolled over to a $5.0 million, five-year, 1.36% fixed interest loan.
The Company has $18.8 million in bonds pledged as collateral for all FHLBC loans.
Revolving Line of Credit
We maintain a revolving line of credit with a commercial bank which permits borrowing up to an aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million. This line of credit is priced at Prime plus 0.5% with a 4.75% floor and renews annually with a current expiration date of July 2023. Prior to our July 2022 renewal this line had been $2.0 million. The Company pledged $4.0 million of business assets in the event the Company draws down on the line of credit. This agreement includes an annually calculated financial debt covenant requiring a minimum total adjusted capital of $21.0 million. Total adjusted capital is the sum of an insurer’s statutory capital and surplus as determined in accordance with the statutory accounting applicable to the annual financial statements required to be filed with Illinois Department of Insurance. Currently, our total adjusted capital is in excess of $55.0 million. There were no borrowings outstanding and there was no interest paid on the line of credit during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Other Liabilities
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, other liabilities totaled $2,510,000 and $1,031,000, respectively.
ESOP
In connection with our conversion and public offering, the ESOP financed the purchase of 10.0% of the common stock issued in the offering for $3,500,000 with the proceeds of a loan from ICC prior to the expiration of the offering. ICC makes annual contributions to the ESOP sufficient to repay that loan. See Note 8 – Employee Benefits of this Form 10-Q as well as the “Management — Benefit Plans and Employment Agreements —Employee Stock Ownership Plan” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Stock-based Incentive Plan
Under the ICC Holdings, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, we reserved for issuance a total of 490,000 shares of common stock. Of this amount, 350,000 shares of common stock may be granted in the form of restricted stock and stock-settled restricted stock unit awards, and 140,000 shares of common stock may be granted in the form of stock options under the stock-based incentive plan. The grant-date fair value of any common stock used for restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards will represent unearned compensation. As we accrue compensation expense to reflect the vesting of such shares, unearned compensation will be reduced accordingly. We compute compensation expense at the time stock units are awarded based on the fair value of such options on the date they are granted. This compensation expense is recognized over the appropriate service period. Restricted stock units (RSUs) were granted for the first time in February 2018 with additional RSUs granted in March 2019, April 2020, April 2021, and April 2022. The RSUs vest one third over three years from the first anniversary of the date of grant. See Note 8 – Employee Benefits of this Form 10-Q as well as the “Management — Benefit Plans and Employment Agreements” section of the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We generate sufficient funds from our operations and maintain a high degree of liquidity in our investment portfolio to meet the demands of claim settlements and operating expenses. The primary sources of funds are premium collections, investment earnings and maturing investments. The increase in cash provided by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 relates primarily to sales of fixed securities. The decrease in cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 relates to repayment of the $3.5 million commercial bank loan in April 2022.
We maintain investment and reinsurance programs that are intended to provide sufficient funds to meet our obligations without forced sales of investments. We maintain a portion of our investment portfolio in relatively short-term and highly liquid assets to ensure the availability of funds.
Cash flows from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

ICC Holdings, Inc.’s principal source of liquidity is dividend payments and other fees received from ICC, Beverage Insurance Agency Inc., and ICC Realty, LLC. ICC is restricted by the insurance laws of Illinois as to the amount of dividends or other distributions it may pay to us. Under Illinois law, there is a maximum amount that may be paid by ICC during any twelve-month period. ICC may pay dividends to us after notice to, but without prior approval of the Illinois Department of Insurance in an amount “not to exceed” the greater of (i) 10% of the surplus as regards policyholders of ICC as reported on its most recent annual statement filed with the Illinois Department of Insurance, or (ii) the statutory net income of ICC for the period covered by such annual statement. Dividends in excess of this amount are considered “extraordinary” and are subject to the approval of the Illinois Department of Insurance.
The amount available for payment of dividends from ICC in 2022 without the prior approval of the Illinois Department of Insurance is approximately $6.3 million based upon the insurance company’s 2021 annual statement. Prior to its payment of any dividend, ICC is required to provide notice of the dividend to the Illinois Department of Insurance. This notice must be provided to the Illinois Department of Insurance 30 days prior to the payment of an extraordinary dividend and 10 days prior to the payment of an ordinary dividend. The Illinois Department of Insurance has the power to limit or prohibit dividend payments if ICC is in violation of any law or regulation. These restrictions or any subsequently imposed restrictions may affect our future liquidity. ICC paid $3,000,000 in dividends to ICC Holdings, Inc. in April 2022. ICC paid $800,000 in dividends in the first nine months of 2021.
The actual timing of gross loss and loss adjustment expense payments is unknown and therefore timing estimates are based on historical experience and the expectations of future payment patterns.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Information about Market Risk
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that we will incur losses due to adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments. We have exposure to three principal types of market risk through our investment activities: interest rate risk, credit risk and equity risk. Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates. We have not entered, and do not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for hedging, trading, or speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in interest rates. Our exposure to interest rate changes primarily results from our significant holdings of fixed rate investments. Fluctuations in interest rates have a direct impact on the fair value of these securities.
The average maturity of the debt securities in our investment portfolio at September 30, 2022, was 8.81 years. Our debt securities investments include U.S. government bonds, securities issued by government agencies, obligations of state and local governments and governmental authorities, and corporate bonds, most of which are exposed to changes in prevailing interest rates, and which may experience moderate fluctuations in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates. We carry these investments as available for sale. This allows us to manage our exposure to risks associated with interest rate fluctuations through active review of our investment portfolio by our management and board of directors and consultation with our third-party investment manager.
Fluctuations in near-term interest rates could have an impact on our results of operations and cash flows. Certain of these securities may have call features. In a declining interest rate environment these securities may be called by their issuer and replaced with securities bearing lower interest rates. If we are required to sell these securities in a rising interest rate environment, we may recognize losses.
As a general matter, we attempt to match the durations of our assets with the durations of our liabilities. Our investment objectives include maintaining adequate liquidity to meet our operational needs, optimizing our after-tax investment income, and our after-tax total return, all of which are subject to our tolerance for risk.
The table below shows the interest rate sensitivity of our fixed maturity investments measured in terms of fair value (which is equal to the carrying value for all our investment securities that are subject to interest rate changes):

1Assumes US rates are floored at 0%.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the potential economic loss principally arising from adverse changes in the financial condition of a specific debt issuer. We address this risk by investing primarily in fixed maturity securities that are rated investment grade and at least 70% of our investment securities must be rated at least “A” by Moody’s or an equivalent rating quality. We also independently, and through our independent third-party investment manager, monitor the financial condition of all the issuers of fixed maturity securities in the portfolio. To limit our exposure to risk, we employ diversification rules that limit the credit exposure to any single issuer or asset class.
Equity Risk
Equity price risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in equity prices.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that required information is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required timeframe as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision of and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as of September 30, 2022, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) identified during the third quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
There were no material changes to report.
A description of the risks associated with our business, financial conditions and results of operations is set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
ICC Holdings, Inc. is a Pennsylvania corporation that was organized in 2016. As used in this Form 10-Q, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the consolidated group. On a stand-alone basis ICC Holdings, Inc. is referred to as the “Parent Company.” The consolidated group consists of the holding company, ICC Holdings, Inc.; ICC Realty, LLC, a real estate services and holding company; Beverage Insurance Agency, Inc., a non-insurance subsidiary; Estrella Innovative Solutions, Inc., an outsourcing company; Southern Hospitality Education, LLC, dba Katkin, a full-service food safety and education company; and Illinois Casualty Company (ICC), an operating insurance company that is the parent company of ICC Properties, LLC, a real estate series limited liability company. Both ICC and ICC Properties, LLC are Illinois domiciled companies.
We are a specialty insurance carrier primarily underwriting commercial multi-peril, liquor liability, workers’ compensation, and umbrella liability coverages for the food and beverage industry through our subsidiary insurance company, ICC. ICC writes business in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin and markets through independent agents. Approximately 20.3% and 22.1% of the premium is written in Illinois for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 22.2% and 23.9%, respectively, of the premium is written in Illinois. The Company operates as one segment.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As such, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”). Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, and all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2022 the results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. These amounts are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
The Company reported its significant accounting policies in the 2021 10-K.
For information regarding accounting standards that the Company has not yet adopted, see the “Prospective Accounting Standards” in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2021 10-K. The Company maintains its status as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We have taken advantage of the extended transition period provided by Section 107 of the JOBS Act. We decided to comply with the effective dates for financial accounting standards applicable to emerging growth companies later in compliance with the requirements in Sections 107(b)(2) and (3) of the JOBS Act. Such decision is irrevocable. These exemptions will expire following the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022.
ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial statements. Current GAAP delays the recognition of credit losses until lit is probable a loss has been incurred. The update will require a financial asset measured at amortized cost, including reinsurance balances recoverable, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by means of an allowance for credit losses that runs through earnings. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. However, the amendments would limit the amount of the allowance to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. This ASU impacts the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The Company expects investments, premiums and reinsurance balances receivable, ceded unearned premiums, and reinsurance balances recoverable on unpaid losses and settlement expenses to be impacted by allowances for credit losses.
Annually, the Company reviews the major asset classes of property and equipment held for impairment. For the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized no impairments. Property and equipment are summarized as follows:
Comprehensive (loss) earnings include net (loss) earnings plus unrealized (losses) gains on available-for-sale investment securities, net of tax. In reporting the components of comprehensive earnings on a net basis in the statement of earnings and comprehensive earnings, the Company used a 21% tax rate. Other comprehensive earnings, as shown in the consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings, is net of tax (benefit) of $(3,288,000) and $(486,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The following table presents changes in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) earnings for unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities:
The following table illustrates the components of other comprehensive earnings for each period presented in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
The following table provides the reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive earnings for the periods presented:
Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to our day-to-day operations. Adverse changes in the economy could lower demand for our insurance products or negatively impact our investment results, both of which could have an adverse effect on the revenue and profitability of our operations. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and could continue to result in, significant disruptions in economic activity and financial markets. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, inflation and related monetary policy responses, and recession fears are also causing volatility. The cumulative effects of these events on the Company cannot be predicted, but could reduce demand for our insurance policies, result in increased level of losses, settlement expenses or other operating costs, or reduce the market value of invested assets held by the Company.

| Investments in Debt and Marketable Equity Securities (and Certain Trading Assets) Disclosure [Text Block] |
The Company’s investments are primarily composed of fixed income debt securities and common and preferred equity securities. We carry our equity securities at fair value and categorize all our fixed maturity debt securities as available-for-sale (AFS), which are carried at fair value. When available, quoted market prices are obtained to determine fair value for the Company’s investments. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using a secondary pricing source or using quoted market prices of similar securities. The Company has no investment securities for which fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs as defined in Note 3 – Fair Value Disclosures. Realized gains and losses on disposition of investments are based on specific identification of the investments sold on the settlement date, which does not differ significantly from trade date accounting.
Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturity and Equity Securities
The following tables are a summary of the proceeds from sales, maturities, and calls of AFS fixed maturity and equity securities and the related gross realized gains and losses.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of fixed income securities at September 30, 2022, by contractual maturity, are shown as follows:
Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities due to call provisions on some existing securities.
The following table is a schedule of amortized cost and estimated fair values of investments in securities classified as available for sale at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021
All the Company’s collateralized securities carry an average credit rating of AA+ by one or more major rating agencies and continue to pay according to contractual terms. Included within MBS/ABS/CMBS, as defined in Note 3 – Fair Value Disclosures, are asset backed securities with fair values of $10,897,742 and $14,351,099, residential mortgage backed securities of $16,488,927 and $14,975,101, and commercial mortgage backed securities of $9,118,138 and $11,697,671 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
ANALYSIS
The following tables are also used as part of the impairment analysis and displays the total value of securities that were in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The tables segregate the securities based on type, noting the fair value, amortized cost, and unrealized loss on each category of investment as well as in total. The table further classifies the securities based on the length of time they have been in an unrealized loss position.
The fixed income portfolio contained 242 securities in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2022. Of these 242 securities, 33 have been in an unrealized loss position for 12 consecutive months or longer and represent $2,914,848 in unrealized losses. All fixed income securities in the investment portfolio continue to pay the expected coupon payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Credit-related impairments on fixed income securities that we do not plan to sell, and for which we are not more likely than not to be required to sell, are recognized in net earnings. Any non-credit related impairment is recognized in comprehensive earnings. Based on management’s analysis, the fixed income portfolio is of a high credit quality, and it is believed it will recover the amortized cost basis of the fixed income securities. Management monitors the credit quality of the fixed income investments to assess if it is probable that the Company will receive its contractual or estimated cash flows in the form of principal and interest.
There were other-than-temporary impairment losses recognized in net earnings during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. For all fixed income securities at a loss at September 30, 2022, management believes it is probable that the Company will receive all contractual payments in the form of principal and interest. In addition, the Company is not required to, nor does it intend to sell these investments prior to recovering the entire amortized cost basis for each security, which may be at maturity. The fixed income securities in an unrealized loss position were not other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES ON EQUITY SECURITIES
Net unrealized (losses) recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 on equity securities held as of September 30, 2022 were $(1,084,289) and $(6,181,492), respectively. Net unrealized (losses) gains recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 on equity securities held as of September 30, 2021 were $(212,136) and $1,392,999, respectively.
Other Invested Assets
Other invested assets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $4,556,769 and $3,086,568, respectively.
Other invested assets as of September 30, 2022 include privately held investments of $3,287,891 and notes receivable of $843,878, compared to $1,720,502 and $1,066,066, respectively, at December 31, 2021. The notes bear interest between 3.9% and 6.5%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, $229,979 in note payments were received and $7,791 in accrued escrow and interest receivable was recorded. Comparatively, as of December 31, 2021, $317,529 in note payments were received and $12,075 in accrued escrow and interest receivable was recorded. The Company had allowance recorded related to uncollectible note receivables at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
In addition, other invested assets include a membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (FHLBC) with a carrying value of $425,000 and $300,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
In November 2021, we agreed to commit up to $10.0 million to a private investment fund, subject to regulatory approval, which may be callable from time to time by such fund. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no calls were received.

| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] |
Fair value is defined as the price in the principal market that would be received for an asset to facilitate an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value of certain financial instruments is determined based on their underlying characteristics and relevant transactions in the marketplace. GAAP guidance requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
The following are the levels of the fair value hierarchy and a brief description of the type of valuation inputs that are used to establish each level:
As a part of the process to determine fair value, management utilizes widely recognized, third-party pricing sources to determine fair values. Management has obtained an understanding of the third-party pricing sources’ valuation methodologies and inputs. The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for financial assets that are measured at fair value, including the general classification of such assets pursuant to the fair value hierarchy.
Corporate, Agencies, and Municipal Bonds—The pricing vendor employs a multi-dimensional model which uses standard inputs including (listed in order of priority for use) benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, market bids/offers and other reference data. The pricing vendor also monitors market indicators, as well as industry and economic events. All bonds valued using these techniques are classified as Level 2. All Corporate, Agencies, and Municipal securities are deemed Level 2.
Mortgage-backed Securities (MBS), Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO), Commercial Mortgage-backed Securities (CMBS) and Asset-backed Securities (ABS)—The pricing vendor evaluation methodology includes principally interest rate movements and new issue data. Evaluation of the tranches (non-volatile, volatile, or credit sensitivity) is based on the pricing vendors’ interpretation of accepted modeling and pricing conventions. This information is then used to determine the cash flows for each tranche, benchmark yields, pre-payment assumptions and to incorporate collateral performance. To evaluate CMO volatility, an option adjusted spread model is used in combination with models that simulate interest rate paths to determine market price information. This process allows the pricing vendor to obtain evaluations of a broad universe of securities in a way that reflects changes in yield curve, index rates, implied volatility, mortgage rates, and recent trade activity. MBS, CMBS, CMO and ABS with corroborated and observable inputs are classified as Level 2. All MBS, CMBS, CMO and ABS holdings are deemed Level 2.
U.S. Treasury Bonds, Common Stocks and Exchange Traded Funds—U.S. treasury bonds and exchange traded equities have readily observable price levels and are classified as Level 1 (fair value based on quoted market prices). All common stock holdings are deemed Level 1.
Preferred Stock—Preferred stocks do not have readily observable prices but do have quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices and are classified as Level 2. All preferred stock holdings are deemed Level 2.
Due to the relatively short-term nature of cash and cash equivalents, their carrying amounts are reasonable estimates of fair value. Other invested assets include notes receivable, stock, and a membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (FHLBC). Notes receivable are carried at outstanding balance plus accrued interest. Stock and the membership in FHLBC are carried at cost.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022, are summarized below:
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021, are summarized below:
As noted in the previous tables, the Company did have any assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. Additionally, there were no securities transferred in or out of Levels 1 and 2 during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

This line of credit is priced at Prime plus 0.5% with a floor of 4.75% and renews annually with a current expiration date of July 2023. The Company pledged $4.0 million of business assets in the event the Company draws down on the line of credit. This agreement includes an annually calculated financial debt covenant requiring a minimum total adjusted capital of $21.0 million. Total adjusted capital is the sum of an insurer’s statutory capital and surplus as determined in accordance with the statutory accounting applicable to the annual financial statements required to be filed with Illinois Department of Insurance. As of September 30, 2022, our total adjusted capital is in excess of $55.0 million. There was no interest paid on the line of credit during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

| Reinsurance [Text Block] |
In the ordinary course of business, the Company assumes and cedes premiums and selected insured risks with other insurance companies, known as reinsurance. A large portion of the reinsurance is put into effect under contracts known as treaties and, in some instances, by negotiation on each individual risk (known as facultative reinsurance). In addition, there are several types of treaties including quota share, excess of loss and catastrophe reinsurance contracts that protect against losses over stipulated amounts arising from any one occurrence or event. The arrangements allow the Company to pursue greater diversification of business and serve to limit the maximum net loss to a single event, such as a catastrophe. Through the quantification of exposed policy limits in each region and the extensive use of computer-assisted modeling techniques, management monitors the concentration of risks exposed to catastrophic events.
Through the purchase of reinsurance, the Company also generally limits its net loss on any individual risk to a maximum of $1,000,000 for casualty and workers’ compensation business and $750,000 for property, although certain treaties contain an annual aggregate deductible before reinsurance applies.
Premiums, written and earned, along with losses and settlement expenses incurred for the periods presented is summarized as follows:

The following table is a reconciliation of the Company’s unpaid losses and settlement expenses:
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we experienced unfavorable development of $5,081,000 and $1,464,000, respectively. The unfavorable development for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by additional information received on prior accident year claims for the following lines of business and denoted accident years: Business Owners Liability (2020; one claim & 2017; one claim) and Liquor Liability (2021; two claims & 2020; one claim). The Business Owners Property line of business was the primary driver of adverse development for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] |
The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 was 21.1% compared to 21.6% for the same period in 2021. Effective rates are dependent upon components of pretax earnings and losses and the related tax effects.
Income tax expense for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal tax rate of 21% to pretax income from continuing operations as demonstrated in the following table:
Management believes it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be recovered as the result of future operations, which will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company does have any capital or operating loss carryforwards. Periods still subject to IRS audit include 2018 through current year. Unrealized losses on the investment portfolio during 2022 have moved the Company from a net deferred tax liability position as of December 31, 2021 to a net deferred tax asset position as of September 30, 2022. There are currently no open tax exams.

| Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Text Block] |
ESOP
In connection with our conversion and public offering, we established an ESOP. The ESOP borrowed from the Company to purchase 350,000 shares in the offering. The issuance of the shares to the ESOP resulted in a contra account established in the equity section of the balance sheet for the unallocated shares at an amount equal to their $10.00 per share purchase price.
The Company may make discretionary contributions to the ESOP and pay dividends on unallocated shares to the ESOP. ICC makes annual contributions to the ESOP sufficient to repay the loan. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are allocated to participants based on relative compensation. The Company repurchases shares from participants that have left our employment. ICC Holdings contributed $92,080 and $5,324 to the ESOP for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No other contributions were made to the ESOP during these time periods.
A compensation expense charge is booked monthly during each year for the shares committed to be allocated to participants that year, determined with reference to the fair market value of our stock at the time the commitment to allocate the shares is accrued and recognized. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized compensation expense of $292,220 related to 17,530 shares of our common stock that are committed to be released to participants’ accounts at December 31, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized compensation expense of $271,165 related to 17,530 shares of our common stock that were committed to be released to participants’ accounts at December 31, 2021.
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
Restricted stock units (RSUs) were granted for the first time in February 2018 and more recently in April of each year. RSUs have a grant date value equal to the closing price of the Company’s stock on the dates the shares are granted. The RSUs vest third over years beginning the first anniversary of the date of grant. The Company recognized $151,575 in RSU expense as of September 30, 2022 and $186,897 as of December 31, 2021.

| Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As such, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”). Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, and all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2022 the results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. These amounts are inherently subject to change and actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
For information regarding accounting standards that the Company has not yet adopted, see the “Prospective Accounting Standards” in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2021 10-K. The Company maintains its status as an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We have taken advantage of the extended transition period provided by Section 107 of the JOBS Act. We decided to comply with the effective dates for financial accounting standards applicable to emerging growth companies later in compliance with the requirements in Sections 107(b)(2) and (3) of the JOBS Act. Such decision is irrevocable. These exemptions will expire following the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2022.
ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial statements. Current GAAP delays the recognition of credit losses until lit is probable a loss has been incurred. The update will require a financial asset measured at amortized cost, including reinsurance balances recoverable, to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by means of an allowance for credit losses that runs through earnings. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. However, the amendments would limit the amount of the allowance to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. This ASU impacts the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The Company expects investments, premiums and reinsurance balances receivable, ceded unearned premiums, and reinsurance balances recoverable on unpaid losses and settlement expenses to be impacted by allowances for credit losses. |

| Risk And Uncertainties [Policy Text Block] |
Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent to our day-to-day operations. Adverse changes in the economy could lower demand for our insurance products or negatively impact our investment results, both of which could have an adverse effect on the revenue and profitability of our operations. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and could continue to result in, significant disruptions in economic activity and financial markets. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, inflation and related monetary policy responses, and recession fears are also causing volatility. The cumulative effects of these events on the Company cannot be predicted, but could reduce demand for our insurance policies, result in increased level of losses, settlement expenses or other operating costs, or reduce the market value of invested assets held by the Company. |
