The amount of dividends that can be paid to shareholders by insurance companies domiciled in the State of Arizona is limited. Any dividend in excess of the limit requires prior regulatory approval. The statutory surplus for Repwest at December 31, 2015 that could be distributed as ordinary dividends was $15.8 million. The statutory surplus for Oxford at December 31, 2015 that could be distributed as ordinary dividends was $12.0 million. Oxford did not pay a dividend to AMERCO in fiscal 2016, 2015 or 2014. After receiving approval from the Arizona Department of Insurance, Repwest paid a $19.6 million non-cash dividend to AMERCO in fiscal 2016.
