Highlights for the quarter included:
-
Underwriting income of $10.6 million, resulting in a combined ratio of
94.2.
-
3% growth in gross premiums written and 2% growth in net premiums
written.
-
$1.4 million net decrease in underwriting income resulting from
unfavorable development in prior years' loss reserves.
-
Book value per share of $21.01, an increase of 14% from year end 2015,
inclusive of dividends.
"While our third quarter results were not as strong as previous
quarters, RLI remains on a long-term path of fundamentally strong and
sustainable earnings," said RLI Corp. Chairman & CEO Jonathan E.
Michael. "For the only time in over a decade, we experienced unfavorable
development on prior years' reserves in the quarter. However, after the
first three quarters of the year, our combined ratio sits at a
respectable 89 and book value per share is up 14% year to date. We
remain confident in our team's underwriting discipline and will continue
to focus on selectively pursuing growth opportunities."
Underwriting Income
RLI achieved $10.6 million of underwriting income in the third quarter
of 2016 on a 94.2 combined ratio, compared to $33.6 million of
underwriting income on an 81.3 combined ratio in the same quarter for
2015. Results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 include
$1.4 million in unfavorable development in prior years' loss reserves,
compared to $15.8 million in favorable development in prior years' loss
reserves for the comparable period in 2015.

Non-GAAP and Performance Measures
Management has included certain non-generally accepted accounting
principles ("non-GAAP") financial measures in presenting the Company's
results. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures better explain
the Company's results of operations and allows for a more complete
understanding of the underlying trends in the Company's business. These
measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In
addition, our definitions of these items may not be comparable to the
definitions used by other companies.
Operating earnings and earnings per share from operations (EPS) consist
of our GAAP net earnings adjusted by the net realized gains/(losses) and
taxes related thereto. Net earnings and net earnings per share are the
GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to operating
earnings and EPS from operations. A reconciliation of the operating
earnings and EPS from operations to the comparable GAAP financial
measures is included in the 2016 financial highlights below.
Underwriting income or profit represents the pretax profitability of our
insurance operations and is derived by subtracting loss and settlement
expenses, policy acquisition costs and insurance operating expenses from
net premium earned, which are all GAAP financial measures. The combined
ratio, which is derived from components of underwriting income, is a
performance measure commonly used by property and casualty insurance
companies to help users of their financial information to better
understand company performance.
