access desirable business, and build an attractive portfolio of risks
for our wholly owned and joint venture balance sheets. We enter 2014
with a strong balance sheet, some of the highest ratings in the
industry, and a flexible operating platform from which to serve our
clients and partners."
SEGMENTS
As of December 31, 2013, the Company now has three reportable segments:
(1) Catastrophe Reinsurance, which includes catastrophe reinsurance and
certain property catastrophe joint ventures managed by the Company's
ventures unit, (2) Specialty Reinsurance, which includes specialty
reinsurance and certain specialty joint ventures managed by the
Company's ventures unit, and (3) Lloyd's, which includes reinsurance and
insurance business written through RenaissanceRe Syndicate 1458
("Syndicate 1458"). Financial information related to the Catastrophe
Reinsurance segment and Specialty Reinsurance segment was previously
provided in the Company's financial supplements and aggregated together
as the Reinsurance segment for GAAP reporting in accordance with FASB
ASC Topic Segment Reporting. All prior periods presented have
been reclassified to conform to this new presentation.
FOURTH QUARTER 2013 HIGHLIGHTS
-
The Company generated underwriting income of $188.9 million and a
combined ratio of 26.4% in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to
$4.3 million and 98.5% in the fourth quarter of 2012, respectively.
These results were primarily driven by relatively light catastrophe
losses during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the fourth
quarter of 2012 when Storm Sandy occurred and negatively impacted the
Company's underwriting results by $127.0 million and added 60.7
percentage points to the combined ratio in that quarter. In addition,
the Company recorded favorable development on prior accident years
losses of $72.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to
$36.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily driven by the
Catastrophe Reinsurance segment, as discussed further below.
-
Total investment result of $140.1 million in the fourth quarter of
2013, which includes the sum of net investment income, net realized
and unrealized gains on investments and net other-than-temporary
impairments, compared to $50.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2012,
was primarily driven by a gain of $73.1 million related to the
Company's investment in the common shares of Essent Group Ltd.
("Essent"), combined with higher returns in the remainder of the
Company's portfolio of equity investments trading and other
investments.
-
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $54.2 million
in the fourth quarter of 2013 increased from $9.7 million in the
fourth quarter of 2012, principally due to an increase in the
profitability of DaVinciRe as a result of improved underwriting
performance driven by relatively light catastrophe losses during the
fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the fourth quarter of 2012.
Net Positive Impact (1) of Storm Sandy
During the Fourth Quarter of 2013
During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company experienced favorable

Underwriting Results by Segment
Catastrophe Reinsurance Segment
Gross premiums written in the Catastrophe Reinsurance segment were
negative $17.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, a decrease of
$41.4 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily driven
by $33.9 million of net negative reinstatement premiums from large
losses, as a result of reductions in net claims and claim expenses and
related reinstatement premium with respect to Storm Sandy, the Thailand
Floods which occurred in late 2011 and the Tohoku Earthquake. Excluding
the impact of $33.9 million of net negative reinstatement premiums
written in the fourth quarter of 2013 and $36.5 million of net positive
reinstatement premiums written in the fourth quarter of 2012 from large
losses, gross premiums written in the Catastrophe Reinsurance segment
were $16.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $29.0
million compared to the fourth quarter of 2012.
Managed catastrophe premiums increased $31.0 million, to $20.2 million
in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to negative $10.8 million in the
fourth quarter of 2012, net of $34.0 million of net negative
reinstatement premiums written in the fourth quarter of 2013 and $37.9
million of net positive reinstatement premiums written in the fourth
quarter of 2012.
The Catastrophe Reinsurance segment generated underwriting income of
$171.6 million and a combined ratio of negative 12.8% in the fourth
quarter of 2013, compared to $11.5 million and 94.4% in the fourth
quarter of 2012, respectively. The $160.1 million increase in
underwriting income in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the
fourth quarter of 2012, was driven by relatively light catastrophe
losses during the fourth quarter of 2013 resulting in a $167.6 million
decrease in current accident year net claims and claim expenses,
combined with a $13.9 million decrease in acquisition expenses and a
$34.5 million increase in favorable development on prior accident years
net claims and claim expenses, partially offset by a $53.1 million
decrease in net premiums earned, driven by the net negative
reinstatement premiums written in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the net
positive reinstatement premiums written in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The decrease in acquisition expenses is primarily attributable to
increases in profit commissions on certain ceded reinsurance contracts
the Company has entered into. Included in the Catastrophe Reinsurance
segment's current accident year net claims and claim expenses in the
fourth quarter of 2013 is a reduction in the estimate ultimate net loss
of $13.8 million related to the European Floods which occurred in June
2013. In addition, the net positive impact on the Catastrophe
Reinsurance segment's underwriting results from the Company's review of
Storm Sandy during the fourth quarter of 2013 was $32.8 million, or 31.1
percentage points on the combined ratio.
The Catastrophe Reinsurance segment experienced $59.0 million of
favorable development on prior years reserves in the fourth quarter of
2013, compared to $24.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily
due to $44.5 million, $13.4 million and $5.7 million of aggregate
favorable development related to reductions in the expected ultimate net
loss for Storm Sandy, the Tohoku Earthquake and the 2011 New Zealand
Earthquake, respectively, as reported claims activity on these events
came in lower than expected, partially offset by adverse development on
the 2010 New Zealand Earthquake of $9.4 million.
Specialty Reinsurance Segment
Gross premiums written in the Specialty Reinsurance segment were $58.5
million in the fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $24.3 million, or
71.3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, driven by increases
across a number of lines of business, most notably the Company's credit
related lines of business, and higher quota share premiums.
The Specialty Reinsurance segment generated underwriting income of $23.0
million and a combined ratio of 58.3% in the fourth quarter of 2013,
compared to $12.9 million and 69.9% in the fourth quarter of 2012,
respectively. The $10.2 million increase in underwriting income was
driven by a $12.5 million increase in net premiums earned as a result of
the increase in gross premiums written, noted above.
The Specialty Reinsurance segment experienced $10.9 million of favorable
development on prior years reserves in the fourth quarter of 2013,
compared to $14.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, principally due
to reported claims activity coming in lower than expected on prior
accident years events.
Lloyd's Segment
Gross premiums written in the Lloyd's segment were $43.5 million in the
fourth quarter of 2013, an increase of $17.4 million, or 66.4%, compared
to the fourth quarter of 2012, primarily due to continued organic growth
within the segment. The Lloyd's segment incurred an underwriting loss of
$3.1 million and a combined ratio of 106.3% in the fourth quarter of
2013, compared to an underwriting loss of $14.5 million and a combined
ratio of 140.9% in the fourth quarter of 2012, respectively. The
decrease in the underwriting loss in the Lloyd's segment primarily
reflects the increase in net earned premiums due to the growth in gross
premiums written, noted above.
Other Items
-
During the period from October 1, 2013 through October 30, 2013, the
Company recorded $37.6 million of net investment income related to the
estimated increase in the fair value of Essent. From October 31, 2013
(the date of Essent's initial public offering ("IPO")) through
December 31, 2013, the Company recorded $35.5 million of unrealized

Company's consolidated statements of operations as its investment in
Essent was considered equity investments trading on the Company's
consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2013 (the date of
Essent's IPO). At December 31, 2013, the fair value of the Company's
investment in Essent was $121.1 million. The Company has agreed,
subject to certain exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any of the
common shares of Essent it holds prior to April 28, 2014.

February 3, 2014, the Company repurchased 985 thousand common shares
in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $89.3 million and
at an average share price of $90.61.
FULL YEAR 2013 HIGHLIGHTS
-
Gross premiums written increased $53.8 million, or 3.5% in 2013, to
$1,605.4 million. Excluding the impact of $24.2 million of net
negative reinstatement premiums written from large losses in 2013 and
$20.1 million of net positive reinstatement premiums written from
large losses in 2012, respectively, gross premiums written increased
$98.1 million, or 6.4%, in 2013, driven by continued growth within the
Company's Specialty Reinsurance and Lloyd's segments.
-
Underwriting income of $626.7 million and a combined ratio of 43.8% in
2013, compared to $451.5 million and 57.8% in 2012, respectively, was
positively impacted by a decrease in net claims and claim expenses of
$153.9 million due to lower insured losses in respect of large events.
Included in underwriting income for 2013 was $22.9 million and $12.7
million of underwriting losses related to the May 2013 U.S. Tornadoes
and the European Floods, respectively, which added a total of 3.5
percentage points to the combined ratio. In comparison, Storm Sandy
and Hurricane Isaac resulted in $149.1 million and $26.3 million of
underwriting losses in 2012, respectively, which added a total of 19.0
percentage points to the combined ratio. Favorable development on
prior accident years was $144.0 million in 2013, compared to $158.0
million in 2012, primarily driven by the Catastrophe Reinsurance
segment, as discussed further below.
-
Total investment result was $235.1 million in 2013, which includes the
sum of net investment income, net realized and unrealized gains on
investments and net other-than-temporary impairments, compared to
$329.1 million in 2012. The decrease in the investment result was
primarily due to lower total returns on the Company's fixed maturity
investment portfolio as a result of a rising interest rate environment
in 2013, compared to significant contraction in credit spreads
yielding higher returns on the Company's fixed maturity investment
portfolio in 2012; partially offset by realized and unrealized gains
in the Company's portfolio of equity investments trading of $26.7
million and $42.9 million in 2013, respectively, compared to $Nil and
$7.6 million in 2012, respectively, and improved returns in the
Company's portfolio of other investments, primarily driven by the
Company's investment in the common shares of Essent and, to a lesser
extent, the improved global equity markets during 2013. With respect
to Essent, during the period from January 1, 2013 through October 30,
2013, the Company recorded $56.9 million of net investment income
related to the estimated increase in the fair value of its investment
in Essent. From October 31, 2013 (the date of Essent's IPO) through
December 31, 2013, the Company recorded $35.5 million of unrealized
gains in net realized and unrealized gains on investments in its
consolidated statements of operations as its investment in Essent was
considered equity investments trading on the Company's consolidated
balance sheet as of October 31, 2013 (the date of Essent's IPO). In
addition, the Company recognized gains of $31.1 million on
investments-related derivatives in 2013 as a result of the increasing
interest rates noted above.
Underwriting Results by Segment
Catastrophe Reinsurance Segment
Gross premiums written in the Catastrophe Reinsurance segment decreased
by $61.8 million, or 5.2%, to $1,120.4 million in 2013, compared to
$1,182.2 million in 2012, primarily reflecting reduced risk-adjusted
pricing in the catastrophe markets the Company serves, including the
Florida market as a whole, and the non-renewal of a number of contracts
during the January and June 2013 renewals, partially offset by some
pockets of new demand. In addition, the Catastrophe Reinsurance
segment's underwriting results in 2013 were impacted by $65.6 million of
gross premiums written related to increased quota share premium and
$27.0 million associated with a multi-year transaction booked in the
second quarter of 2013; partially offset by negative reinstatement
premiums written of $24.1 million, which principally related to
decreases in the net claims and claim expenses associated with Storm
Sandy, the Tohoku Earthquake and the Thailand Floods. The Company's
catastrophe reinsurance premiums are prone to significant volatility due
to the timing of contract inception and also due to the business being
characterized by a relatively small number of relatively large
transactions.
For 2013, managed catastrophe premiums, net of reinstatement premiums
written of negative $24.1 million and positive $18.5 million in 2013 and
2012, respectively, totaled $1,246.1 million, a decrease of $27.1
million, or 2.1%, compared to 2012, primarily reflecting reduced
risk-adjusted pricing in the catastrophe markets the Company serves,
including the Florida market as a whole, and the non-renewal of a number
of contracts during the January and June 2013 renewals, partially offset
by some pockets of new demand, as noted above.
The Catastrophe Reinsurance segment generated underwriting income of
$558.5 million and a combined ratio of 22.8% in 2013, compared to $446.1
million and 42.9% in 2012, respectively. The $112.5 million increase in
underwriting income in the Catastrophe Reinsurance segment was driven by
relatively light catastrophe losses in 2013 resulting in a $165.8
million decrease in current accident year net claims and claim expenses,
combined with a $17.5 million decrease in acquisition expenses,
partially offset by a $58.0 million decrease in net premiums earned. The
decrease in acquisition expenses is primarily attributable to increases
in profit commissions on certain ceded reinsurance contracts the Company
enters into.
Included in the underwriting results of the Catastrophe Reinsurance
segment in 2013 is $21.9 million and $10.7 million of underwriting
losses related to the May 2013 U.S. Tornadoes and the European Floods,
respectively.
The Catastrophe Reinsurance segment experienced $102.0 million of
favorable development on prior years reserves in 2013, compared to
$110.6 million in 2012, primarily due to $44.5 million, $18.0 million,
$16.3 million and $10.9 million of aggregate favorable development
related to reductions in the expected ultimate net loss for Storm Sandy,
the Tohoku Earthquake, the 2008 Hurricanes and the 2011 New Zealand
Earthquake, respectively, as reported claims on these events came in
lower than expected, partially offset by adverse development on the 2010
New Zealand Earthquake of $11.0 million.
Specialty Reinsurance Segment
Gross premiums written in the Specialty Reinsurance segment increased
$49.6 million, or 23.6%, to $259.5 million in 2013, compared to $209.9
million in 2012, primarily due to a number of new contracts and higher
quota share premiums. The Company's specialty reinsurance premiums are
prone to significant volatility due to the timing of contract inception
and also due to the business being characterized by a relatively small
number of relatively large transactions.
The Specialty Reinsurance segment generated underwriting income of $73.8
million and a combined ratio of 65.6% in 2013, compared to $34.9 million
and 78.8% in 2012, respectively. The $38.8 million increase in
underwriting income is primarily due to a $49.6 million increase in net
premiums earned as a result of the growth in gross premiums written over
the prior twelve months and a $9.6 million decrease in net claims and
claim expenses, partially offset by a $17.7 million increase in
acquisition expenses due to higher net premiums earned and a higher
proportion of quota share reinsurance premiums which have a higher
acquisition expense ratio.
The Specialty Reinsurance segment experienced $34.1 million of favorable
development on prior year reserves in 2013, compared to $34.1 million in
2012, primarily driven by $10.4 million associated with actuarial
assumption changes in the first quarter of 2013, principally in the
casualty clash and casualty risk lines of business, which were primarily
as a result of revised claim development factors based on actual loss
experience, and $23.7 million due to reported claims coming in lower
than expected on prior accident years events.
Lloyd's Segment
Gross premiums written in the Lloyd's segment were $226.5 million in
2013, an increase of $66.5 million, or 41.6%, compared to 2012,
primarily as a result of continued growth across all lines of business
within the segment. The Lloyd's segment incurred an underwriting loss of
$5.0 million and a combined ratio of 102.9% in 2013, compared to a $25.8
million underwriting loss and 121.0% in 2012, respectively. The $20.8
million improvement in the underwriting result for the Lloyd's segment
is primarily due to the relatively low level of insured catastrophe loss
activity during 2013, compared to 2012 which was negatively impacted by
Storm Sandy, which resulted in $17.1 million of underwriting losses and
increased the combined ratio by 16.2 percentage points.
The favorable development of $8.3 million within our Lloyd's segment in
2013, compared to $16.2 million in 2012, was primarily related to
reported claims coming in lower than expected on prior accident years
events.
Other Items
-
During 2013, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 2.5 million
common shares in open market transactions and a privately negotiated
transaction at an aggregate cost of $207.9 million and at an average
share price of $84.80.
-
Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests of
$151.1 million in 2013, compared to $148.0 million in 2012, was
primarily due to the Company's ownership percentage in DaVinciRe
decreasing to 27.3% at December 31, 2013, compared to 30.8% at
December 31, 2012, resulting in an increase in the portion of
DaVinciRe's net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.
-
Income from discontinued operations was $2.4 million in 2013, compared
to a loss from discontinued operations of $16.5 million in 2012.
Included in income from discontinued operations in 2013 is
trading-related income of $10.5 million, partially offset by an $8.8
million loss on sale of the Company's U.S.-based weather and
weather-related energy risk management unit ("REAL") during the third
quarter of 2013. In comparison, the loss from discontinued operations
of $16.5 million in 2012 was primarily due to REAL experiencing
trading losses driven by unusually warm weather experienced in parts
of the United Kingdom and the United States, principally during the
first quarter of 2012.
-
The Company's corporate expenses increased $17.2 million to $33.6
million in 2013, compared to 2012, primarily due to costs associated
with senior management transition changes during the year.

RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd. is a global provider of reinsurance and
insurance. The Company's business consists of three reportable segments:
(1) Catastrophe Reinsurance, which includes catastrophe reinsurance and
certain property catastrophe joint ventures managed by the Company's
ventures unit; (2) Specialty Reinsurance, which includes specialty
reinsurance and certain specialty joint ventures managed by the
Company's ventures unit; and (3) Lloyd's, which includes reinsurance and
insurance business written through RenaissanceRe Syndicate 1458.
Cautionary Statement under "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Statements made in this
earnings release contain information about the Company's future business
prospects. These statements may be considered "forward-looking." These
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied
by such forward-looking statements. For further information regarding
cautionary statements and factors affecting future results, please refer
to RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.'s filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, including its Annual Reports on Form 10-K and its
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
(1) Net positive impact includes the sum of estimates of net claims and
claim expenses incurred, earned reinstatement premiums assumed and
ceded, profit commissions and redeemable noncontrolling interest. The
Company's estimates are based on a review of its potential exposures,
preliminary discussions with certain counterparties and catastrophe
modeling techniques. Given the magnitude and recent occurrence of this
event, delays in receiving claims data, the contingent nature of
business interruption and other exposures, potential uncertainties
relating to reinsurance recoveries and other uncertainties inherent in
loss estimation, meaningful uncertainty remains regarding losses from
this event. In addition, a significant portion of the net claims and
claim expenses associated with Storm Sandy are concentrated with a few
large clients and therefore the loss estimates for this event may vary
significantly based on the claims experience of those clients.
Accordingly, the Company's actual net negative impact from this event
will vary from these preliminary estimates, perhaps materially so.
Changes in these estimates will be recorded in the period in which they
occur.

Comments on Regulation G
In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this Press
Release, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures in
this Press Release within the meaning of Regulation G. The Company has
provided these financial measurements in previous investor
communications and the Company's management believes that these
measurements are important to investors and other interested persons,
and that investors and such other persons benefit from having a
consistent basis for comparison between quarters and for the comparison
with other companies within the industry. These measures may not,
however, be comparable to similarly titled measures used by companies
outside of the insurance industry. Investors are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these non-GAAP measures in assessing the Company's
overall financial performance.
The Company uses "operating income available to RenaissanceRe common
shareholders" as a measure to evaluate the underlying fundamentals of
its operations and believes it to be a useful measure of its corporate
performance. "Operating income available to RenaissanceRe common
shareholders" as used herein differs from "net income available to
RenaissanceRe common shareholders," which the Company believes is the
most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of net realized
and unrealized gains and losses on investments from continuing and
discontinued operations, net other-than-temporary impairments from
continuing operations, and commencing in 2013, also excludes net
realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments-related
derivatives. Prior to 2013, investments-related derivative net realized
and unrealized gains and losses were included in net investment income
and were also included in the calculation of operating income available
to RenaissanceRe common shareholders and related measures. The Company's
management believes that "operating income available to RenaissanceRe
common shareholders" is useful to investors because it more accurately
measures and predicts the Company's results of operations by removing
the variability arising from fluctuations in the Company's fixed
maturity investment portfolio and equity investments trading. The
Company also uses "operating income available to RenaissanceRe common
shareholders" to calculate "operating income available to RenaissanceRe
common shareholders per common share - diluted" and "operating return on
average common equity - annualized". The following is a reconciliation
of: 1) net income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders to
operating income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders; 2) net
income available to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share -
diluted to operating income available to RenaissanceRe common
shareholders per common share - diluted; and 3) return on average common
equity - annualized to operating return on average common equity -
annualized:

The Company has also included in this Press Release "managed catastrophe
premiums". "Managed catastrophe premiums" is defined as gross
catastrophe premiums written by Renaissance Reinsurance and its related
joint ventures. "Managed catastrophe premiums" differs from total
catastrophe unit gross premiums written, which the Company believes is
the most directly comparable GAAP measure, due to the inclusion of
catastrophe premiums written on behalf of the Company's joint venture
Top Layer Re, which is accounted for under the equity method of
accounting and the inclusion of catastrophe premiums written on behalf
of the Company's Lloyd's segment. The Company's management believes
"managed catastrophe premiums" is useful to investors and other
interested parties because it provides a measure of total catastrophe
premiums, as applicable, assumed by the Company through its consolidated
subsidiaries and related joint ventures.
The Company has also included in this Press Release "tangible book value
per common share" and "tangible book value per common share plus
accumulated dividends". "Tangible book value per common share" is
defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible
assets per share. "Tangible book value per common share plus accumulated
dividends" is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill
and intangible assets per share, plus accumulated dividends. "Tangible
book value per common share" differs from book value per common share,
which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure,
due to the exclusion of goodwill and intangible assets per share. The
Company's management believes "tangible book value per common share" and
"tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends" are
useful to investors because they provide a more accurate measure of the
realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding the impact of
goodwill and intangible assets. The following is a reconciliation of
book value per common share to tangible book value per common share and
tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends:
