2024 Fourth Quarter Update:

The Company estimates net current accident quarter catastrophe losses incurred stemming from Hurricane Milton in the fourth quarter of 2024 to be approximately $16.2 million, net of tax impacts. $7.9 million of this impact from Milton is retained by AmCoastal, with $8.3 million being retained by the Company's captive reinsurance entity. The Company also expects to incur approximately $13 million of reinstatement premiums that will be amortized as ceded premiums earned over the remaining eight month coverage period, from October 2024 through May 2025.

"Hurricanes Helene and Milton were severe storms with devastating impact, and our primary focus is on servicing our policyholders. ACIC's underwriting discipline and robust reinsurance program serve to protect AmCoastal's balance sheet and reduce volatility from the active Atlantic hurricane season. We estimate a gross loss between $150 and $200 million from Milton, leaving 100 percent of AmCoastal's $1.26 billion occurrence based reinsurance tower available for subsequent catastrophe events. With AmCoastal's reinsurance tower fully intact and a lower $10.3 million retention on potential second and third events, net of tax impacts, the Company remains strongly positioned for the remainder of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, and is expected to remain profitable in the fourth quarter, despite Milton's impact," said Brad Martz, President of American Coastal.
