Global Indemnity Group, LLC (NYSE:GBLI) (the “Company”) today reported net income available to shareholders of $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2023.

Highlights for the 1st quarter of 2024

  • The increase in net income available to shareholders was driven by strong underwriting results in the Penn-America excess and surplus lines business, reflected in a 54.8% Loss Ratio and 94.0% Combined Ratio, and a 21% increase in investment income to $14.5 million in 2024 due to steps taken by the Company to position it to take advantage of rising interest rates.
  • Gross written premiums declined 24.0% to $93.5 million for 2024 from $123.0 in the same period in 2023 due to runoff of business in the Company’s Non-Core segment.
  • Book value per share increased to $48.18 at March 31, 2024 from $47.53 at December 31, 2023, an increase of 2.1% including dividends paid of $0.35 per share in 2024.

Note Regarding Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is equal to net income excluding after-tax net realized investment gains (losses) and other unique charges not related to operations. Adjusted operating income is not a substitute for net income determined in accordance with GAAP, and investors should not place undue reliance on this measure.
