Except for the historical information included and incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the information included and incorporated by reference herein are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future events, including, among other things, discussion and analysis of our future financial condition, results of operations and our strategic plans and objectives. When we use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “seek,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or similar expressions, we intend to identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other public filings with the SEC.
 
The factors described herein are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect our forward-looking statements. Consequently, our actual performance could be materially different from the results described or anticipated by our forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by the applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

(in thousands, except share data)


(1) Organization

Tiptree Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively, Tiptree, the Company, or we) is a Maryland Corporation that was incorporated on March 19, 2007. Tiptree’s common stock trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TIPT”. Tiptree is a holding company that allocates capital across a broad spectrum of businesses, assets and other investments. We classify our business into two reportable segments: Insurance and Mortgage. We refer to our non-insurance operations, assets and other investments, which is comprised of our Mortgage reportable segment and our non-reportable segments and other business activities, as Tiptree Capital.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Tiptree have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the main operating currency of the Company. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial information reflects all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending on December 31, 2022.

Non-controlling interests on the condensed consolidated balance sheets represent the ownership interests in certain consolidated subsidiaries held by entities or persons other than Tiptree. Accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated.

Recent Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

StandardDescriptionAdoption DateImpact on Financial Statements
Accounting Standard Updates (ASU) 2020-06 Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)
The standard simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments. The guidance reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments by eliminating the cash conversion and beneficial conversion models and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. The ASU amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. Either a full or modified retrospective method of transition is permissible for the adoption of this standard.
January 1, 2022The standard makes changes to the accounting for convertible instruments, which the Company does not currently issue, so the adoption of the standard does not currently impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, Not Yet Adopted

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no accounting standards issued applicable to the Company.

Total of the three largest receivable balances from non-affiliated reinsurers$126,831 

As of March 31, 2022, the non-affiliated reinsurers from whom our insurance business has the largest receivable balances were: Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty SE (A. M. Best Rating: A+ rated), Canada Life International Reinsurance (Bermuda) Corporation (A. M. Best Rating: A+ rated), and Canada Life Assurance Company (A. M. Best Rating: A+ rated). The related receivables of these reinsurers are collateralized by assets on hand, assets held in trust accounts and letters of credit. As of March 31, 2022, the Company does not believe there is a risk of loss due to the concentration of credit risk in the reinsurance program given the collateralization.

(9) Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging

The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments as part of its overall investment and hedging activities. Derivative contracts are subject to additional risk that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The Company’s derivative activities are primarily classified by underlying credit risk and interest rate risk. In addition, the Company is also subject to additional counterparty risk should its counterparties fail to meet the contract terms. The derivative financial instruments are reported in other investments. Derivative liabilities are reported within other liabilities and accrued expenses.

Derivatives, at fair value
Interest Rate Lock Commitments

The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) with customers in connection with its mortgage banking activities to fund residential mortgage loans with certain terms at specified times in the future. IRLCs that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be classified as held-for-sale are considered derivative instruments under applicable accounting guidance. As such, these IRLCs are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value typically resulting in recognition of a gain when the Company enters into IRLCs. In estimating the fair value of an IRLC, the Company assigns a probability that the loan commitment will be exercised and the loan will be funded (“pull through”). The fair value of the commitments is derived from the fair value of related mortgage loans, net of estimated costs to complete. Outstanding IRLCs

expose the Company to the risk that the price of the loans underlying the commitments might decline from inception of the rate lock to funding of the loan. To manage this risk, the Company utilizes forward delivery contracts and to be announced (“TBA”) mortgage backed securities to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of the loans that would result from the commitments.

Forward Delivery Contracts and TBA Mortgage Backed Securities
The Company enters into forward delivery contracts with loan aggregators and other investors as one of the tools to manage the interest rate risk associated with IRLCs and loans held for sale. In addition, the Company enters into TBA mortgage backed securities which facilitate hedging and funding by allowing the Company to prearrange prices for mortgages that are in the process of originating. The Company utilizes these hedging instruments for Agency (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) and FHA/VA (Ginnie Mae) eligible IRLCs.

(11) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible to measure a financial instrument’s fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, and are affected by the type of product, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, as well as current market conditions. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based
F - 23

TIPTREE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2022
(in thousands, except share data)


on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Fair value is estimated by applying the hierarchy discussed in Note (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s fair value measurements are based primarily on a market approach, which utilizes prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable financial instruments. Sources of inputs to the market approach include third-party pricing services, independent broker quotations and pricing matrices. Management analyzes the third-party valuation methodologies and its related inputs to perform assessments to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy and to assess reliability of values. Further, management has a process in place to review all changes in fair value that occurred during each measurement period. Any discrepancies or unusual observations are followed through to resolution through the source of the pricing as well as utilizing comparisons, if applicable, to alternate pricing sources.

The Company utilizes observable and unobservable inputs within its valuation methodologies. Observable inputs may include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. In addition, specific issuer information and other market data is used. Broker quotes are obtained from sources recognized to be market participants. Unobservable inputs may include: expected cash flow streams, default rates, supply and demand considerations and market volatility.

Available for Sale Securities, at fair value

The fair values of AFS securities are based on prices provided by an independent pricing service and a third-party investment manager. The Company obtains an understanding of the methods, models and inputs used by the independent pricing service and the third-party investment manager by analyzing the investment manager-provided pricing report.

The following details the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of AFS securities and the applicable level each security falls within the fair value hierarchy:

U.S. Treasury Securities, Obligations of U.S. Government Authorities and Agencies, Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions, Corporate Securities, Asset Backed Securities, and Obligations of Foreign Governments: Fair values were obtained from an independent pricing service and a third-party investment manager. The prices provided by the independent pricing service and third-party investment manager are based on quoted market prices, when available, non-binding broker quotes, or matrix pricing and fall under Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Certificates of Deposit: The estimated fair value of certificates of deposit approximate carrying value and fall under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities

The fair values of publicly traded common and preferred equity securities and exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) are obtained from market value quotations provided by an independent pricing service and fall under Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of non-publicly traded common and preferred stocks are based on prices obtained from an independent pricing service using unobservable inputs and fall under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Loans, at fair value

Corporate Loans: These loans are comprised of middle market loans and bank loans and are generally classified under either Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. To determine fair value, the Company uses quoted prices, including those provided from pricing vendors, which provide coverage of secondary market participants, where available. The values represent a composite of mark-to-market bid/offer prices. In certain circumstances, the Company will make its own determination of fair value of loans based on internal models and other unobservable inputs.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are generally classified under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is based upon forward sales contracts with third-party investors, including estimated loan costs.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities

Derivatives are primarily comprised of IRLCs, forward delivery contracts and TBA mortgage backed securities. The fair value of these instruments is based upon valuation pricing models, which represent the amount the Company would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date to exit the position. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries issue IRLCs to their customers, which are carried at estimated fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair values of these commitments are generally calculated by reference to the value of the underlying loan associated with the IRLC net of costs to produce and an expected pull through assumption. The fair values of these commitments generally fall under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries manage their exposure by entering into forward delivery commitments with loan investors. For loans not locked with investors under a forward delivery commitment, the Company enters into hedge instruments, primarily TBAs, to protect against movements in interest rates. The fair values of TBA mortgage backed securities and forward delivery contracts generally fall under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Corporate Bonds

Corporate bonds are generally classified under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is provided by a third-party investment manager, based on quoted market prices. We perform internal price verification procedures monthly to ensure that the prices provided are reasonable.

Trade Claims

Trade claims represent unsecured claims of bankrupt companies and are generally classified under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value is determined using valuation methodologies that consider a range of factors, including but not limited to the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, current and projected operating performance, and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment. The inputs are intended to reflect the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased

Securities sold, not yet purchased are generally classified under Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the leveling of the securities sold short, and fair value is provided by a third-party investment manager, based on quoted market prices. We perform internal price verification procedures monthly to ensure that the prices provided are reasonable.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Mortgage servicing rights are classified under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is provided by a third-party valuation service. Various observable and unobservable inputs are used to determine fair value, including discount rate, cost to service and weighted average prepayment speed.

Debentures: Since interest rates on debentures are at current market rates for similar credit risks, the carrying amount approximates fair value. These values are net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

Notes Receivable, net: To the extent that carrying amounts differ from fair value, fair value is determined based on contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for similar credits. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (6) Notes and Accounts Receivable, net.

Debt: The carrying value, which approximates fair value of LIBOR based debt, represents the total debt balance at face value excluding the unamortized discount. The fair value of the Junior subordinated notes is determined based on dealer quotes. Categorized under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Additionally, the following financial assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are not carried at fair value, but whose carrying amounts approximate their fair value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Categorized under Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Accounts and Premiums Receivable, net, Retrospective Commissions Receivable and Other Receivables: The carrying amounts approximate fair value since no interest rate is charged on these short duration assets. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (6) Notes and Accounts Receivable, net.

Due from Brokers, Dealers, and Trustees and Due to Brokers, Dealers and Trustees: The carrying amounts are included in other assets and other liabilities and accrued expenses and approximate their fair value due to their short term nature. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Other lines incurred392 
Unallocated loss adjustment expenses160 273 
Total losses incurred$83,276 $50,251 
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company experienced an increase in prior year development of $1,161, primarily as a result of higher-than-expected claim severity from business written by a small group of producers of our personal and commercial lines of business.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company experienced a decrease in prior year development of $36.

Management considers the prior year development for each of these years to be insignificant when considered in the context of our annual earned premiums, net as well as our net losses and loss adjustment expenses and member benefit claims expenses. We analyze our development on a quarterly basis and given the short duration nature of our products, favorable or adverse development emerges quickly and allows for timely reserve strengthening, if necessary, or modifications to our product pricing or offerings.

Based upon our internal analysis and our review of the statement of actuarial opinions provided by our actuarial consultants, we believe that the amounts recorded for policy liabilities and unpaid claims reasonably represent the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.

(13) Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company’s revenues from insurance and contractual and liability insurance operations are primarily accounted for under Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944) that are not within the scope of Revenue for Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Company’s remaining revenues that are within the scope of Topic 606 are primarily comprised of revenues from contracts with customers for monthly membership dues for motor clubs, monthly administration fees for services provided for premiums, claims and reinsurance processing revenues, vehicle service contracts, vessel related revenue and revenues for household goods and appliances service contracts (collectively, remaining contracts).

The following table presents the disaggregated amounts of revenue from contracts with customers by product type for the following periods:
Three Months Ended
March 31,
20222021
Service and Administrative Fees:
Service contract revenue$43,213 $33,068

Vessel related revenue8,862 5,699 
Other2,121 5,364 
Revenue from contracts with customers$66,754 $53,315 

Service and Administrative Fees
Service fee revenue is recognized as the services are performed. These services include fulfillment, software development, and claims handling for our customers. Management reviews the financial results under each significant contract on a monthly basis. Any losses that may occur due to a specific contract would be recognized in the period in which the loss is determined probable.

Administrative fee revenue includes the administration of premium associated with our producers and PORCs. In addition, we also earn fee revenue from debt cancellation, motor club, and auto and consumer goods service contracts. Related administrative fee revenue is recognized consistent with the earnings recognition pattern of the underlying insurance policies, debt cancellation contracts and motor club memberships being administered, using Rule of 78's, modified Rule of 78's, pro rata, or other methods as appropriate for the contract. Management selects the appropriate method based on available information, and periodically reviews the selections as additional information becomes available.

We do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. The transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected duration exceeding one year was not material at March 31, 2022.

The timing of our revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by our customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and we have an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, we record deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

Vessel Related Revenue
The Company generates its revenues from charterers for the charter hire of its vessels. Vessels are chartered under time or voyage charters, where a contract is entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific voyage or a specific period of time and at a specified daily charter rate. Charter revenues are recognized as earned on the straight-line basis over the term of the charter as service is provided.

Revenue is recognized when a charter agreement exists, the vessel is made available to the charterer and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured. Unearned revenue includes revenue received prior to the balance sheet date relating to services to be rendered after the balance sheet date.

Restricted Stock Units and Stock Awards

Tiptree Corporate Incentive Plans

The Company values RSUs at their grant-date fair value as measured by Tiptree’s common stock price. Generally, the Tiptree RSUs vest and become non-forfeitable with respect to one-third of Tiptree shares granted on each of the first, second and third year anniversaries of the date of the grant, and expensed using the straight-line method over the requisite service period. The RSUs granted after 2019 include a retirement provision and are amortized over the lesser of the service condition or expected retirement date.

Stock Awards - Directors’ Compensation

The Company values the stock awards at their issuance-date fair value as measured by Tiptree’s common stock price. Upon issuance, the awards are deemed to be granted and immediately vested.

Tiptree Senior Management Incentive Plan

On August 4, 2021, a total of 3,500,000 Performance Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs) were awarded to members of the Company’s senior management. The PRSUs have a 10-year term and are subject to the recipient’s continuous service and a market requirement. A portion of the PRSUs will generally vest upon the achievement of each of five Tiptree share price target milestones ranging from $15 to $60, adjusted for dividends paid, within five pre-established determination periods (subject to a catch-up vesting mechanism) occurring on the second, fourth, sixth, eighth and tenth anniversaries of the grant date.

In November 2021, the first tranche of the PRSUs vested, resulting in a net issuance of 215,583 shares of Tiptree common stock. As of March 31, 2022, 3,266,667 PRSUs are unvested. The below table illustrates the aggregate number of PRSUs that will vest upon the achievement of each Tiptree share price target. Such price targets are adjusted down for cumulative dividends paid by the Company since grant (e.g., the next share price target is $19.88 as adjusted for cumulative dividends paid to date).

Upon vesting, the Company will issue shares or if shares are not available under the 2017 Equity Plan, then the Company may in its sole discretion instead deliver cash equal to the fair market value of the underlying shares. As of March 31, 2022, the Company does not have sufficient shares available in the 2017 Equity Plan to settle the PRSUs awarded; as such, the PRSUs are classified as liability awards and will be remeasured at each reporting date until the date of settlement, and expensed using the straight-line method over the requisite service period.

The fair value of the PRSUs are estimated on the date of grant and at each subsequent reporting date using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula embedded within a Monte Carlo model used to simulate the future stock prices of the Company, which assumes that the market requirement is achieved. The historical volatility is computed based on historical daily returns of the Company’s stock price simulated over the performance period using a lookback period of 10 years. The valuation is done under a risk-neutral framework using the 10-year zero-coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve on the reporting date. The current quarterly dividend rates in effect as of the reporting date are used to calculate a spot dividend yield for use in the model.

The following table presents the assumptions used to remeasure the fair value of the PRSUs as of March 31, 2022, which were granted in 2021 and classified as liability awards.

Subsidiary Incentive Plans

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have established incentive plans under which they are authorized to issue equity of those subsidiaries to certain of their employees. Such awards are accounted for as equity. These awards are subject to performance-vesting criteria based on the performance of the subsidiary (performance vesting awards) and time-vesting subject to continued employment (time vesting awards). Following the service period, such vested awards may be exchanged based on a formula which approximates fair market value, at the option of the holder, for Tiptree common stock under the 2017 Equity Plan. The service period for certain grants has been achieved and those vested subsidiary awards are currently eligible for exchange. The Company has the option, but not the obligation to settle the exchange right in cash.
The following table presents changes to the issuances of subsidiary awards under the subsidiary incentive plans for the periods indicated:

Stock Option Awards

Tiptree Corporate Incentive Plans

Option awards have been granted to the Executive Committee with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The option awards have a 10-year term and are subject to the recipient’s continuous service, a market requirement, and vest one third on each of the three, four, and five year anniversaries of the grant date. The market requirement is the Company's 20-day volume weighted average per share trading price plus actual cash dividends paid following issuance of the option that exceeds the book value on the option grant date. If the service condition is met, the full amount of the compensation expense will be recognized over the appropriate vesting period whether the market requirement is met or not. The options granted after 2017 include a retirement provision and are amortized over the lesser of the service condition or expected retirement date. There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Book value targets for grants in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016 are $11.52, $10.79, $9.97, $10.14 and $8.96, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, book value targets for all outstanding options were achieved.

The fair value option grants are estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula embedded within a Monte Carlo model used to simulate the future stock prices of the Company, which assumes that the market requirement is achieved. Historical volatility was computed based on historical daily returns of the Company’s stock between the grant date and July 1, 2013, the date of the business combination through which Tiptree became a public company. The valuation is done under a risk-neutral framework using the 10-year zero-coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve on the grant date. The current quarterly dividend rates in effect as of the date of the grant are used to calculate a spot dividend yield as of the date of grant for use in the model.

There were no stock option awards granted in 2022 or 2021. The following table presents the assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the stock options granted in 2020.

Litigation
The Company is a defendant in Mullins v. Southern Financial Life Insurance Co., which was filed in February 2006, in the Pike County Circuit Court, in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. A class was certified in June 2010. At issue is whether the coverage period of certain credit disability and life insurance policies issued in Kentucky were limited by the term of the associated loan. The action alleges violations of the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act and certain insurance statutes, common law fraud and breach of contract and the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and interest.

In July 2021, the court entered an Order granting Plaintiffs’ Motion for Partial Summary Judgment as to certain disability policies, ruling that if a class member became disabled during the coverage period, benefits could extend beyond the coverage period until the associated loan was paid off. The Company intends to challenge the court’s ruling. In February 2022, a hearing was held on competing motions for partial summary judgment on the principal claims. A hearing for Plaintiffs’ Motion for Sanctions for Spoliation of Evidence is scheduled for June 9, 2022. The court has not yet ruled on the pending motions. No additional hearings are scheduled and a trial date has not been set.

The Company considers such litigation customary in the insurance industry. In management's opinion, based on information available at this time, the ultimate resolution of such litigation, which it is vigorously defending, should not be materially adverse to the financial position of the Company. It should be noted that large punitive damage awards, bearing little relation to actual damages sustained by plaintiffs, have been awarded in certain states against other companies in the credit insurance business. At this time, the Company cannot estimate a range of loss that is reasonably possible.

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company’s legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, the Company does not believe that these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

(21) Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates basic net income per share of common stock (common share) based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, which includes vested corporate RSUs. Unvested corporate RSUs have a non-forfeitable right to participate in dividends declared and paid on the Company’s common stock on an as vested basis and are therefore considered a participating security. The Company calculates basic earnings per share using the “two-class” method under which the income available to common stockholders is allocated to the unvested corporate RSUs.

Diluted net income attributable to common stockholders includes the effect of unvested subsidiaries’ RSUs, when dilutive. The assumed exercise of all potentially dilutive instruments is included in the diluted net income per common share calculation, if dilutive.

The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the following periods:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is presented in this section as follows:

Overview
Results of Operations
Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

OVERVIEW

Tiptree allocates capital to select small and middle market companies with the mission of building long-term value. Established in 2007, we have a significant track record investing in the insurance sector and across a variety of other industries, including mortgage origination, specialty finance and shipping. Our largest operating subsidiary, Fortegra, is a leading provider of specialty insurance products and related services. We also generate earnings from a diverse group of select investments that we refer to as Tiptree Capital, which includes our Mortgage segment and other, non-insurance businesses and assets. We evaluate performance primarily by the comparison of shareholders’ long-term total return on capital, as measured by growth in stock price plus dividends paid, in addition to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA.

Our first quarter 2022 highlights include:

Overall:
Net loss of $1.0 million compared to net income of $28.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, resulting from growth in insurance and shipping operations, more than offset by declines in mortgage volumes and margins and realized and unrealized losses on investments as compared to gains in 2021.
Adjusted net income of $15.5 million increased 17.5% from $13.2 million in 2021, driven by improvement in insurance and shipping operations. Adjusted return on average equity was 15.8%, as compared to 13.7% in 2021.
In October 2021, Tiptree announced a $200 million strategic investment in its insurance subsidiary, Fortegra, by Warburg Pincus, a leading global growth investor. The investment will give Warburg Pincus an approximate 24% ownership in Fortegra on an as converted basis and is expected to close in the second quarter 2022, subject to regulatory approvals.

Insurance:
Gross written premiums and premium equivalents were $600.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $477.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, up 25.9% as a result of growth in admitted and E&S insurance lines as well as growth in fee-based service contract offerings.
Total revenues increased 26.9% to $282.5 million, from $222.6 million in 2021, driven by increases in earned premiums, net and service and administrative fees.
The combined ratio improved to 90.5%, as compared to 91.5% in 2021, driven by the continued scalability of Fortegra’s technology and shared service platform, which improved the expense ratio, while the underwriting ratio remained consistent.
Income before taxes of $14.7 million decreased by $6.8 million as compared to $21.5 million in 2021. Return on average equity was 14.7% in 2022 as compared to 23.9% in 2021. The decrease in both metrics resulted from a combination of revenue growth and an improved combined ratio, more than offset by losses on investments in 2022 compared to gains in 2021.
Adjusted net income increased 65.3% to $21.1 million, as compared to $12.8 million in 2021. Adjusted return on average equity was 28.2%, as compared to 17.9% in 2021. The increase in both metrics was driven by revenue growth and an improved combined ratio.
In April 2022, Fortegra acquired all of the equity interests of ITC Compliance GRP Limited for net cash consideration of approximately $15.6 million.

42


Tiptree Capital:
Mortgage income before taxes was $4.3 million in 2022, as compared to $13.1 million in 2021, with the decrease driven by declines in origination volumes and gain on sale margins, partially offset by higher servicing fees and positive fair value adjustments on the mortgage servicing portfolio. Return on average equity was 22.3% in 2022.
Maritime transportation income before taxes was $2.7 million in 2022, as compared to $0.5 million in 2021, with the increase driven by a rise in both dry-bulk and tanker charter rates.
In March 2022, we signed a definitive agreement to sell one of our three dry-bulk vessels for $21.5 million, representing an approximate 50% gain as compared to March 31, 2022 book value, which is expected to close in June 2022.
In May 2022, $13.1 million of asset based debt associated with tanker investments was prepaid, at a discount of 10% to the outstanding principal balance.

Key Trends:

Our results of operations are affected by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, general economic conditions and GDP growth, market liquidity and volatility, consumer confidence, U.S. demographics, employment and wage growth, business confidence and investment, inflation, interest rates and spreads, the impact of the regulatory environment, and the other factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Generally, our businesses are positively affected by a healthy U.S. consumer, stable to gradually rising interest rates, stable markets and business conditions, and global growth and trade flows. Conversely, rising unemployment, volatile markets, rapidly rising interest rates, changing regulatory requirements and slowing business conditions can have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Fortegra generally offers products which have low severity but high frequency loss experiences and are short duration. As a result, the business has historically generated significant fee-based revenues. In general, the types of products Fortegra offers tend to have limited aggregation risk and limited exposure to catastrophic and residual risk. Underwriting risk is mitigated through a combination of reinsurance and retrospective commission structures with agents, distribution partners and/or third-party reinsurers. To mitigate counterparty risk, Fortegra ensures its distribution partners’ captive reinsurance entities are over-collateralized with highly liquid investments, primarily cash and cash equivalents. Insurance results primarily depend on pricing, underwriting, risk retention and the accuracy of reserves, reinsurance arrangements, returns on invested assets, and policy and contract renewals and run-off. Factors affecting these items, including conditions in financial markets, the global economy and the markets in which we operate, fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates and inflation, including the current period of inflationary pressures, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. While Fortegra’s insurance operations have historically maintained a relatively stable combined ratio, initiatives to change the business mix along with these economic factors could generate different results than the business has historically experienced. We believe there will continue to be growth opportunities to expand Fortegra’s specialty insurance offerings to other niche products and markets.

Fortegra’s investment portfolio includes fixed maturity securities, loans, credit investment funds, and equity securities. Many of those investments are held at fair value. During the first quarter of 2022, the U.S. fixed income markets have experienced a significant rise in interest rates. Rising interest rates have and could continue to impact the value of Fortegra’s fixed maturity securities, with any unrealized losses recorded in equity, and if realized, could impact our results of operations. Offsetting the impact of a rising interest rate environment, new investments in fixed rate instruments from both maturities and portfolio growth can result in higher interest income on investments over time. The average duration of our fixed income available for sale securities is less than three years. During the first quarter of 2022, 2-year treasury yields increased significantly, which resulted in a negative impact on Fortegra’s fixed income portfolio and our book value, as the substantially majority was unrealized. While our asset and liability mix is relatively matched, and we generally have the ability to hold these securities to maturity, should we need to liquidate any of these investments before maturity to pay claims, any realized losses could materially negatively impact our results of operations.

Changes in fair value for loans, credit investment funds, and equity securities in Fortegra’s investment portfolio are reported quarterly as unrealized gains or losses in revenues and can be impacted by changes in interest rates, credit risk, or market risk, including specific company or industry factors. Our equity holdings are relatively concentrated. General equity market trends, along with company and industry specific factors, can impact the fair value which can result in unrealized gains and losses affecting our results.

Rising 10-year treasury yields, and the tapering of the Federal Reserve’s purchases of mortgage-backed securities, has resulted in increases in mortgage interest rates. Low mortgage rates driven by the Federal Reserve intervention in mortgage
43


markets, and rising home prices in certain markets, had provided tailwinds to the mortgage markets beginning in the second quarter of 2020 and continuing through 2021, which had benefited our mortgage operations and margins. While current mortgage rates still remain at relative historic lows, the recent rise in rates has resulted in a reversal of those trends, with volumes and margins declining. Offsetting the declines in earnings in our origination business is an increase in the fair value of our mortgage servicing portfolio as rising rates slow prepayment speeds, with a resulting increase in servicing income. Continued rising mortgage rates could have a materially negative impact on our mortgage business results of operations, and may only be partially mitigated by the improvement in mortgage servicing revenues.

Rising interest rates can also impact the cost of floating interest rate debt obligations, while declining rates can decrease the cost of debt. Our secured revolving and term credit agreements, preferred trust securities and asset based revolving financing are all floating rate obligations. While the majority of our floating rate debt has LIBOR floors that are either at or above current LIBOR rates, a continuation of rising rates could have a material impact on our costs of floating rate debt.

In addition, authorities that regulate LIBOR have announced plans to phase out LIBOR, such that LIBOR is expected to cease to exist as a benchmark for floating interest rates. The Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York organized the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, which identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as its preferred alternative rate for USD-LIBOR. We are not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR or other alternative markets as replacement reference rates. Such uncertainty may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR and/or its replacement rate. To address the phase out of LIBOR, the agreements for our debt facilities include a mechanism to replace LIBOR with an alternative reference rate under specified circumstances, whether that replacement is SOFR or another benchmark. If future rates based upon the successor reference rate are higher than LIBOR rates as currently determined due to illiquidity or other factors, our interest expense could increase.
Common shares of Invesque represent a significant asset on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, both as part of insurance investments and separately in Tiptree Capital. Our investment in Invesque, which operates in the seniors housing, skilled nursing and medical office industries, is carried on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Any additional declines in the fair value of Invesque’s common stock could continue to have a significant impact on our results of operations and the value of the investment.

The maritime transportation industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Demand for shipping capacity is a function of global economic conditions and the related demand for commodities, production and consumption patterns, and is affected by events which interrupt production, trade routes, and consumption. Should rising interest rates and global inflationary factors drive a global recession, both charter rates and utilization rates could be negatively impacted. The shipping industry is cyclical with significant volatility in charter hire rates and profitability, which can change rapidly. General global economic conditions, along with company and industry specific factors, are expected to continue to impact the fair value of our vessels and associated operating results. While there is a current imbalance in supply and demand for shipping capacity, which led to a cyclical high in dry-bulk charter rates, a change in those factors and/or changes in global economic conditions could result in substantially lower charter rates, which could negatively impact our results of operations and the carrying value of our vessels.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a summary of our consolidated financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. In addition to GAAP results, management uses the Non-GAAP measures Adjusted net income, Adjusted return on average equity, Adjusted EBITDA and book value per share as measurements of operating performance. Management believes these measures provide supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance and comparison among companies. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in determining incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers. Adjusted net income represents income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income of the Company plus corporate interest expense, plus income taxes, plus depreciation and amortization expense, less the effects of purchase accounting, plus non-cash fair value adjustments, plus significant non-recurring expenses, and plus unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities that are reported in other comprehensive income. Adjusted net income, Adjusted return on average equity and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for GAAP net income. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of these measures to their GAAP equivalents.

Revenues

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenues were $324.9 million, which increased $30.2 million, or 10.3%, compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by growth in earned premiums, net, and service and administrative fees in the insurance business, increased revenues from vessels and our mortgage servicing portfolio, partially offset by lower mortgage volumes and margins and net realized and unrealized losses on Invesque and other investments in 2022 compared to gains in 2021.

The table below provides a break down between net realized and unrealized gains and losses from Invesque and other securities which impacted our consolidated results on a pre-tax basis. Many investments are carried at fair value and marked to market through unrealized gains and losses. As a result, we expect earnings relating to these investments to be relatively volatile between periods. Fixed income securities are primarily marked to market through AOCI in stockholders’ equity and do not impact net realized and unrealized gains and losses until they are sold.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to common stockholders

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.0 million, a decrease of $29.5 million from net income of $28.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily driven by net realized and unrealized losses on Invesque and other investments in 2022 compared to gains in 2021, and lower mortgage origination revenues, partially offset by growth in Fortegra’s underwriting and fee operations, increased revenues from our mortgage servicing portfolio and improvement in dry-bulk and tanker shipping rates.

Adjusted net income & Adjusted return on average equity - Non-GAAP

Adjusted net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $15.5 million, an increase of $2.3 million, or 17.5%, from the three months ended March 31, 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, adjusted return on average equity was 15.8%, as compared to 13.7% at March 31, 2021, with the increase in both metrics driven by improved performance in our insurance and shipping operations.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was a loss of $14.9 million, a decrease of $60.6 million from 2021, driven by realized and unrealized losses in 2022 (including impacts to AOCI) compared to gains in 2021, partially
45


offset by the improved operating performance noted above.

Book Value per share - Non-GAAP

Total stockholders’ equity was $383.2 million as of March 31, 2022 compared to $397.4 million as of March 31, 2021. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, Tiptree returned $1.4 million to stockholders through dividends paid. Book value per share for the period ended March 31, 2022 was $10.51, a decrease from book value per share of $11.63 as of March 31, 2021. The key drivers of the decrease over the past four quarters were income per share, partially offset by other comprehensive losses, dividends paid of $0.16 per share, and issuance of shares on exercise of warrants and in exchange for vested subsidiary equity awards.

Insurance

Fortegra is a specialty insurance underwriter and service provider, which focuses on niche programs and fee-oriented services. The combination of specialty insurance underwriting, service contract products, and related service solutions delivered through a vertically integrated business model creates a blend of traditional underwriting revenues, investment income and unregulated fee revenues. The business is an agent-driven model, distributing products through independent insurance agents, consumer finance companies, online retailers, auto dealers, and regional big box retailers to deliver products that complement the consumer transaction.

The following tables present the Insurance segment results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Revenues

Earned Premiums, net

Earned premiums, net represent the earned portion of gross written and assumed premiums, less the earned portion that is ceded to third-party reinsurers under reinsurance agreements. Fortegra’s insurance policies generally have a term of six months to seven years depending on the underlying product and premiums are earned pro rata over the term of the policy. At the end of each reporting period, premiums written but not earned are classified as unearned premiums and are earned in subsequent periods over the remaining term of the policy.

Service and Administrative Fees

Service and administrative fees represent the earned portion of gross written premiums and premium equivalents, which is generated from non-insurance products including warranty service contracts, motor club contracts and other services offered as part of Fortegra’s vertically integrated product offerings. Such fees are typically positively correlated with transaction volume and are recognized as revenue when realized and earned. At the end of each reporting period, gross written premiums and premium equivalents written for service contracts not earned are classified as deferred revenue, which are earned in subsequent periods over the remaining term of the policy.

47


Ceding Commissions and Other Revenue

Ceding commissions and other revenue consists of commissions earned on policies written on behalf of third-party insurance companies with no exposure to the insured risk and certain fees earned in conjunction with underwriting policies. Other revenue also includes the interest income earned on the premium finance product offering.

Net Investment Income

We earn investment income on the portfolio of invested assets. Invested assets are primarily comprised of fixed maturity securities and may also include cash and cash equivalents and equity securities. The principal factors that influence net investment income are the size of the investment portfolio, the yield on that portfolio and expenses due to external investment managers.

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses)

Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments are a function of the difference between the amount received by us on the sale of a security and the security’s cost-basis, as well as any “other-than-temporary” impairments and allowances for credit losses which are recognized in earnings. In addition, equity securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in this line.

Revenues - Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 compared to 2021

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, total revenues increased 26.9%, to $282.5 million, as compared to $222.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Earned premiums, net of $208.4 million increased $61.5 million, or 41.9%, driven by growth in commercial, credit and warranty insurance offerings. Service and administrative fees of $71.8 million increased by 23.7% driven by growth in warranty and consumer goods service contract revenues. Ceding commissions of $2.5 million decreased by $0.5 million, or 16.1%, driven by lower ceding fees as less business was ceded in certain credit insurance and collateral protection programs. Other revenues increased by $1.1 million, or 51.0%, driven by growth in premium finance product offerings.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, 27.5% of revenues were derived from fees that were not solely dependent upon the underwriting performance of Fortegra’s insurance products, resulting in more diversified earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, 78.7% of fee-based revenues were generated in non-regulated service companies, with the remainder in regulated insurance companies.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net investment income was $3.2 million as compared to $2.8 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by growth in investments. Net realized and unrealized losses were $6.6 million, a decrease of $16.3 million, as compared to net realized and unrealized gains of $9.7 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by the change in fair value of certain equity and fixed income securities carried at fair value.

Expenses

Underwriting and fee expenses under insurance and warranty service contracts include losses and loss adjustment expenses, member benefit claims and commissions expense.

Net Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Net losses and loss adjustment expenses represent actual insurance claims paid, changes in unpaid claim reserves, net of amounts ceded and the costs of administering claims for insurance lines. Incurred claims are impacted by loss frequency, which is a measure of the number of claims per unit of insured exposure, and loss severity, which is based on the average size of claims. Loss occurrences in insurance products are characterized by low severity and high frequency. Factors affecting loss frequency and loss severity include the volume of underwritten contracts, changes in claims reporting patterns, claims settlement patterns, judicial decisions, economic conditions, morbidity patterns and the attitudes of claimants towards settlements, and original pricing of the product for purposes of the loss ratio in relation to loss emergence over time. Losses and loss adjustment expenses are based on an actuarial analysis of the estimated losses, including losses incurred during the period and changes in estimates from prior periods.

48


Member Benefit Claims

Member benefit claims represent the costs of services and replacement devices incurred in warranty and motor club service contracts. Member benefit claims represent claims paid on behalf of contract holders directly to third-party providers for roadside assistance and for the repair or replacement of covered products. Claims can also be paid directly to contract holders as a reimbursement payment, provided supporting documentation of loss is submitted to the Company. Claims are recognized as expense when incurred.

Commission Expense

Commission expenses reflect commissions paid to retail agents, program administrators and managing general underwriters, net of ceding commissions received on business ceded under certain reinsurance contracts. Commission expenses are deferred and amortized to expense in proportion to the premium earned over the policy life. Commission expense is incurred on most product lines. The majority of commissions are retrospective commissions paid to agents, distributors and retailers selling the Company’s products, including credit insurance policies, warranty service contracts and motor club memberships. When claims increase, in most cases distribution partners bear the risk through a reduction in their retrospective commissions. Commission rates are, in many cases, set by state regulators, such as in credit and collateral protection programs and are also impacted by market conditions and the retention levels of distribution partners.

Operating and Other Expenses

Operating and other expenses represent the general and administrative expenses of insurance operations including employee compensation and benefits and other expenses, including, technology costs, office rent, and professional services fees, such as legal, accounting and actuarial services.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense on corporate revolving debt, notes, preferred trust securities due June 15, 2037 (Preferred Trust Securities) and asset based debt for premium finance and warranty service contract financing, which is non-recourse to Fortegra.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expense is primarily associated with furniture, fixtures and equipment. Amortization expense is primarily associated with purchase accounting amortization including values associated with acquired customer relationships, trade names and internally developed software and technology.

Expenses - Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 compared to 2021

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net losses and loss adjustment expenses were $83.3 million, member benefit claims were $21.2 million and commission expense was $117.4 million, as compared to $50.3 million, $16.9 million and $88.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in net losses and loss adjustment expenses of $33.0 million, or 65.7%, was driven by growth in U.S. and European Insurance lines and the shift in business mix toward commercial lines, which tend to have a higher loss ratios and lower commission ratios. In addition, the impact of prior year development of $1.2 million was a result of higher-than-expected claim severity from business written by a small group of producers of our personal and commercial lines of business. The increase in member benefit claims of $4.2 million, or 25.1%, was driven by growth in vehicle service contracts. Commission expense increased by $28.8 million, or 32.5%, in line with the growth in earned premiums, net and service and administrative fees.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, employee compensation and benefits were $22.0 million and other expenses were $14.8 million, as compared to $19.1 million and $17.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Employee compensation and benefits increased by $2.9 million, or 15.4%, driven by investments in human capital associated with growth in admitted, E&S and warranty lines. Other expenses decreased by $2.8 million, or 15.8%, driven primarily by the deferral of current and certain prior year marketing and advertising costs aligned with the deferral of revenues from Sky Auto, partially offset by increases in premium taxes, which grew in line with earned premiums.

49


For the three months ended March 31, 2022, interest expense was $4.8 million as compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in interest expense of $0.5 million, or 10.6%, was primarily driven by increased asset based debt for premium finance lines.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, depreciation and amortization expense was $4.4 million, including $3.9 million of intangible amortization related to purchase accounting associated with the acquisitions of Fortegra, Smart AutoCare and Sky Auto, as compared to $4.2 million, including $3.8 million of intangible amortization from purchase accounting in 2021.
Key Performance Metrics

We discuss certain key performance metrics, described below, which provide useful information about our business and the operational factors underlying its financial performance.

Gross Written Premiums and Premium Equivalents

Gross written premiums and premium equivalents represent total gross written premiums from insurance policies and warranty service contracts issued, as well as premium finance volumes during a reporting period. They represent the volume of insurance policies written or assumed and warranty service contracts issued during a specific period of time without reduction for policy acquisition costs, reinsurance costs or other deductions. Gross written premiums is a volume measure commonly used in the insurance industry to compare sales performance by period. Premium equivalents are used to compare sales performance of warranty service and administrative contract volumes to gross written premiums. Investors also use these measures to compare sales growth among comparable companies, while management uses these measures to evaluate the relative performance of various sales channels.

The below table shows gross written premiums and premium equivalents by business mix for the three and three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
($ in thousands)Three Months Ended
March 31,
20222021
U.S. Insurance$407,020 $335,848 
U.S. Warranty Solutions162,683 125,329 
Europe Warranty Solutions31,152 16,056 
Total$600,855 $477,233 

Total gross written premiums and premium equivalents for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $600.9 million as compared to $477.2 million in 2021. The growth of $123.6 million, or 25.9%, is driven by a combination of factors including growing Fortegra’s distribution partner network, expanding specialty admitted and E&S insurance lines, and increasing penetration in the auto and consumer goods service contract sector.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, U.S. Insurance increased by $71.2 million, or 21.2%, driven by growth in commercial, E&S, and warranty insurance lines. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, U.S. Warranty Solutions increased by $37.4 million, or 29.8%, driven by growth in auto and roadside assistance service contracts. Europe Warranty Solutions increased by $15.1 million, or 94.0%, driven by growth in auto and consumer goods warranty programs.

The growth in gross written premiums and premium equivalents, combined with higher retention in select products for the three months ended March 31, 2022, has resulted in an increase of $432.5 million, or 32.8%, in unearned premiums and deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as compared to March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, unearned premiums and deferred revenues were $1,749.1 million, as compared to $1,316.6 million as of March 31, 2021.

Combined Ratio, Underwriting Ratio and Expense Ratio

Combined ratio is an operating measure, which equals the sum of the underwriting ratio and the expense ratio. Underwriting ratio is the ratio of the GAAP line items net losses and loss adjustment expenses, member benefit claims and commission expense to earned premiums, net, service and administrative fees and ceding commissions and other revenue. Expense ratio is the ratio of the GAAP line items employee compensation and benefits and other underwriting, general and administrative expenses to earned premiums, net, service and administrative fees and ceding commissions and other revenue.

50


A combined ratio under 100% generally indicates an underwriting profit. A combined ratio over 100% generally indicates an underwriting loss. These ratios are commonly used in the insurance industry as a measure of underwriting profitability, excluding earnings on the insurance portfolio. Investors commonly use these measures to compare underwriting performance among companies separate from the performance of the investment portfolio. Management uses these measures to compare the profitability of various products underwritten as well as profitability among programs between various agents and sales channels.

The combined ratio was 90.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which consisted of an underwriting ratio of 77.6% and an expense ratio of 12.9%, as compared to 91.5%, 74.2% and 17.3%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The improvement in the combined ratio year over year is primarily driven by the continued scalability of the technology and shared service platform, decreasing the expense ratio.

Return on Average Equity

Return on average equity is expressed as the ratio of net income to average stockholders’ equity during the period. Management uses this ratio as a measure of the on-going performance of the totality of the Company’s operations.

Return on average equity was 14.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to 23.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, with the decrease in net income and annualized return on average equity driven by net realized and unrealized losses in the 2022 period compared to net realized and unrealized gains in the 2021 period, partially offset by revenue growth and an improved combined ratio.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Underwriting and Fee Revenues and Underwriting and Fee Margin - Non-GAAP(1)

In order to better explain to investors the underwriting performance of the Company’s programs and the respective retentions between the Company and its agents and reinsurance partners, we use the non-GAAP metrics – underwriting and fee revenues and underwriting and fee margin. Underwritten exposures are managed using both reinsurance (e.g., quota share and excess of loss) and retrospective commission agreements with Fortegra’s agents (e.g., commissions paid are adjusted based on the actual underlying losses incurred). Period-over-period comparisons of revenues and expenses are often impacted by the agents and their PORC’s choice as to their risk retention appetite, specifically earned premiums, net, service and administration fees, ceding commissions, and other revenue, all components of revenue, and losses and loss adjustment expenses, member benefit claims, and commissions paid to Fortegra’s agents and reinsurers. Generally, when losses are incurred, the risk which is retained by Fortegra’s agents and reinsurers is reflected in a reduction in commissions paid.

Underwriting and fee revenues represents total revenues excluding net investment income, net realized and unrealized gains (losses). See “—Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of underwriting and fee revenues to total revenues in accordance with GAAP.

Underwriting and fee margin represents income before taxes excluding net investment income, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), employee compensation and benefits, other expenses, interest expense and depreciation and amortization. Fortegra’s products and services are delivered on a vertically integrated basis to its agents. As such, underwriting and fee margin exclude general and administrative expenses, interest income, depreciation and amortization and other corporate expenses, including income taxes, as these corporate expenses support the vertically integrated delivery model and are not specifically supporting any individual business line. See “—Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of underwriting and fee margin to total revenues in accordance with GAAP.

The below table shows underwriting and fee revenues and underwriting and fee margin by business mix for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Underwriting and fee revenues were $286.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to $210.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Total underwriting and fee revenues increased $75.9 million, or 36.1%, driven by growth in all business lines. The increase in U.S. Insurance was $61.2 million, or 40.8%, driven by growth in commercial, E&S, and credit insurance lines. The increase in U.S. Warranty Solutions was $9.9 million, or 19.4%, driven by growth in auto, roadside assistance, and premium finance offerings. Europe Warranty Solutions increased by $4.8 million, or 52.0%, driven by growth in auto and consumer goods service contracts.

Underwriting and fee margin was $64.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to $54.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Total underwriting and fee margin increased $9.8 million, or 18.1%, driven by growth in U.S. Insurance and Europe Warranty Solutions. U.S. Insurance grew by $9.7 million, or 32.1%, as the underwriting ratio was consistent year-over-year at 81.1% while revenues increased from growth in admitted and E&S lines. U.S. Warranty Solutions decreased by $1.2 million, or 5.8%, primarily driven by the deferral of revenues associated with contracts acquired by Sky Auto. This current period revenue deferral for Sky Auto was offset by the deferral of direct marketing costs in other expenses and therefore had minimal impact on the combined ratio or income before taxes. Europe Warranty Solutions increased by $1.3 million, or 38.5%, driven by growth in auto and consumer goods service contracts in those markets.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Return on Average Equity

Adjusted net income represents income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, including merger and acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting.

Adjusted return on average equity represents adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period.

Management uses both these measures for executive compensation and as a measure of the on-going performance of our operations. See “—Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity to income before taxes and adjusted return on average equity.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity were $21.1 million and 28.2%, respectively, as compared to $12.8 million and 17.9%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The improvement in both metrics was driven by the growth in underwriting and fee revenues in addition to a 1.0 percentage point improvement in the combined ratio.

Net Investment Income and Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Investments

The insurance investment portfolio includes investments held in statutory insurance companies and in unregulated entities. The portfolios held in statutory insurance companies are subject to different regulatory considerations, including with respect to types of assets, concentration limits, affiliate transactions and the use of leverage. Fortegra’s investment strategy is designed to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns across select asset classes, sectors and geographies while maintaining adequate liquidity to meet claims payment obligations. As such, volatility from realized and unrealized gains and losses may impact period-over-period performance. Unrealized gains and losses on equity securities and loans held at fair value impact current period net income, while unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities impact AOCI.

52


Net investment income includes interest and dividends, net of investment expenses, on invested assets. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are reported separately from net investment income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net investment income was $3.2 million as compared to $2.8 million in the prior year period, driven by growth in investments. Net realized and unrealized losses were $6.6 million, a decrease of $16.3 million, driven by realized and unrealized losses on certain equity securities and other investments, including fixed income securities carried at fair value, in the 2022 period as compared to gains in the 2021 period.

Unrealized losses impacting OCI for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $26.4 million, driven by the rise in interest rates and corresponding impact to the fair value of investments in U.S. Treasuries, obligations of U.S. government agencies, corporate securities, obligations of state and political subdivisions, and asset-backed securities.

Tiptree Capital

Tiptree Capital consists of our Mortgage segment, which includes the operating results of Reliance, our mortgage business, and Tiptree Capital - Other, which consists of our other non-insurance operating businesses and investments. As of March 31, 2022, Tiptree Capital - Other includes our Invesque shares, maritime transportation operations, and the mortgage operations of Luxury, which is classified as held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Mortgage

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses)

Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) include gains on sale of mortgage loans and the fair value adjustment in mortgage servicing rights. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans represent the difference between the selling price and carrying value of loans sold and are recognized upon settlement. Such gains also include the changes in fair value of loans held for sale and loan-related hedges and derivatives. We transfer the risk of loss or default to the loan purchaser, however, in some cases we are required to indemnify purchasers for losses related to non-compliance with borrowers’ creditworthiness and collateral requirements. Because of this, we recognize gains on sale net of required indemnification and premium recapture reserves. The fair value adjustment on mortgage servicing rights represents fair value adjustments considering estimated prepayments and other factors associated with changes in interest rates, plus actual run-off in the servicing portfolio. We report these adjustments separate from servicing income and servicing expense.

Other Revenue

Other revenue includes loan origination fees, interest income, and mortgage servicing income. Loan origination fees are earned as mortgage loans are funded. Servicing fees are earned over the life of the loan. Interest income includes interest earned on loans held for sale and interest income on bank balances and short-term investments.

Revenues - Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 compared to 2021

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $354.4 million of loans were funded, compared to $419.9 million for 2021, a decrease of $65.5 million, or 15.6%. Origination volumes in 2022 declined given the rise in mortgage interest rates, partially offset by home price appreciation and cash-out refinancing activity in the United States. Gain on sale margins decreased to 4.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, down approximately 170 basis points from 6.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net realized and unrealized gains for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $20.4 million, compared to $30.1 million for 2021, a decrease of $9.7 million or 32.1%. The primary driver of decreased gain on sale revenues was the decline in volumes and gain on sale margins, partially offset by positive fair value adjustments in mortgage servicing rights of $6.3 million as interest rates increased from the year ended December 31, 2021.

Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $5.0 million, compared to $4.4 million for 2021, an increase of $0.6 million, or 12.9%, driven primarily by higher servicing fees from an increase in loans serviced. As of March 31, 2022, the mortgage servicing asset recorded in other assets on the balance sheet was $37.9 million, an increase from $29.8 million as of December 31, 2021.

Expenses

Employee Compensation and Benefits

Employee compensation and benefits includes salaries, commissions, benefits, bonuses, other incentive compensation and related taxes for employees. Commissions expense for sales staff generally varies with loan origination volumes.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents borrowing costs under warehouse and other credit facilities used primarily to fund loan originations. Amortization of deferred financing costs, including commitment fees, is included in interest expense.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expense is mainly associated with furniture, fixtures and equipment while amortization expense is primarily associated with a trade name and internally developed software.

Other Expenses

54


Other expenses include loan origination expenses, namely, leads, appraisals, credit reporting and licensing fees, general and administrative expenses, including office rent, insurance, legal, consulting and payroll processing expenses, and servicing expense.

Expenses - Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 compared to 2021
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, employee compensation and benefits were $14.4 million, compared to $15.3 million in 2021, a decrease of $0.9 million or 6.0%. This decrease was driven primarily by reduced commissions on lower origination volumes.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense were both flat, at $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, other expenses were $6.2 million, compared to $5.6 million in 2021, with the $0.6 million increase driven by increased loan origination expenses, including marketing costs.

Income (loss) before taxes

Income before taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $4.3 million, compared to income before taxes of $13.1 million in 2021. The primary driver of the decrease was a decline in volumes and margins, partially offset by higher servicing fees attributable to the larger servicing portfolio, in addition to positive fair value adjustments on the mortgage servicing rights asset, as compared to 2021.

Revenues

Tiptree Capital - Other earns revenues from the following sources: net interest income; revenues on our held for sale mortgage originator; realized and unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s investment holdings (primarily Invesque); and charter revenue from vessels within the Company’s maritime transportation operations.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $17.0 million compared to $37.6 million for 2021. The primary driver of the decrease in revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was unrealized losses on our investment in Invesque in 2022 compared to unrealized gains in 2021, partially offset by increased dry-bulk and tanker charter rates earned by the maritime transportation business.

Income (loss) before taxes

The loss before taxes from Tiptree Capital - Other for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $7.7 million, compared to income before taxes of $15.0 million in 2021. The primary driver of the decrease was unrealized losses in 2022 compared to gains in 2021 on our investment in Invesque, partially offset by increased income before taxes in our maritime transportation business due to the same factors that had a positive impact on maritime transportation revenues.

Corporate expenses include expenses of the holding company for interest expense, employee compensation and benefits, and public company and other expenses. Corporate employee compensation and benefits includes the expense of management, legal and accounting staff. Other expenses primarily consisted of audit and professional fees, insurance, office rent and other related expenses.

Employee compensation and benefits, including incentive compensation expense, was $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $5.6 million for 2021, driven by an increase in performance related employee incentive compensation. Of the incentive compensation expense in the three months ended March 31, 2022, $3.8 million was stock-based compensation expense primarily related to awards tied to the increase in Tiptree’s stock price over the past twelve months. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $2.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, the outstanding borrowing on the facility was $112.5 million, compared to $114.1 million at December 31, 2021. Other expenses of $2.8 million increased by $1.0 million from the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily driven by increased consulting, legal and professional fees.

Provision for Income Taxes

The total income tax benefit of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and the total income tax expense of $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are reflected as components of net income (loss).

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company’s effective tax rate was equal to 9.0%. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was lower than the U.S. statutory income tax rate of 21.0%, primarily from the impact of non-deductible compensation and other discrete items. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was equal to 22.2%. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0%, primarily from the impact of state taxes, partially offset by discrete items.

Balance Sheet Information

Tiptree’s total assets were $3,600.2 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to $3,599.1 million as of December 31, 2021. The $1.1 million increase in assets is primarily attributable to the growth in the Insurance segment, partially offset by unrealized losses on investments.
56



Total stockholders’ equity was $383.2 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to $400.2 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily driven by the comprehensive loss on available for sale securities attributable to common stockholders for three months ended March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, there were 34,877,897 shares of common stock outstanding as compared to 34,124,153 as of December 31, 2021, with the increase driven by the exercise of warrants and the vesting of share-based incentive compensation.

NON-GAAP MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

In addition to GAAP results, management uses the non-GAAP financial measures underwriting and fee revenues and underwriting and fee margin in order to better explain to investors the underwriting performance and the respective retentions between the Company and its agents and reinsurance partners. We also use the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted net income, adjusted return on average equity and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance and as part of our resource and capital allocation process, to assess comparative returns on invested capital. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in determining incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers. Management believes these measures provide supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance and to compare relative performance among comparable companies. Adjusted net income, adjusted return on average equity, Adjusted EBITDA, underwriting and fee revenues and underwriting and fee margin are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for earned premiums, net income or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP.

57


Underwriting and Fee Revenues and Underwriting and Fee Margin — Non-GAAP (Insurance only)

The following tables present revenue and expenses by business mix. We generally manage exposure to underwriting risks written by using both reinsurance (e.g., quota share and excess of loss) and retrospective commission agreements with our partners (e.g., commissions paid are adjusted based on the actual underlying losses incurred), which mitigates Fortegra’s risk. Period-over-period comparisons of revenues and expenses are often impacted by the PORCs and distribution partners’ choice as to whether to retain risk, specifically service and administration fees and ceding commissions, both components of revenue, and policy and contract benefits and commissions paid to our partners and reinsurers. Generally, when losses are incurred, the risk which is retained by our partners and reinsurers is reflected in a reduction in commissions paid. In order to better explain to investors the underwriting performance and the respective retentions between the Company and its agents and reinsurance partners, we use the non-GAAP metrics underwriting and fee revenues and underwriting and fee margin.

Underwriting and Fee Revenues — Non-GAAP

We define underwriting and fee revenues as total revenues from the Insurance segment excluding net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains (losses). Underwriting and fee revenues represents revenues generated by underwriting and fee-based operations and allows us to evaluate the Company’s underwriting performance without regard to investment income. We use this metric as we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our underlying business performance. Underwriting and fee revenues should not be viewed as a substitute for total revenues calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define underwriting and fee revenues differently.

Underwriting and Fee Margin — Non-GAAP

We define underwriting and fee margin as income before taxes from the Insurance segment, excluding net investment income, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), employee compensation and benefits, other expenses, interest expense and depreciation and amortization. Underwriting and fee margin represents the underwriting performance of our underwriting and fee-based lines. As such, underwriting and fee margin excludes general administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization and other corporate expenses as those expenses support the vertically integrated business model and not any individual component of the Company’s business mix. We use this metric as we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into the specific performance of our underlying business mix. Underwriting and fee margin should not be viewed as a substitute for income before taxes calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define underwriting and fee margin differently.

58


related expenses, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses) and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting. We use adjusted net income as an internal operating performance measure in the management of business as part of our capital allocation process. We believe adjusted net income provides useful supplemental information to investors as it is frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance between periods and for comparison among companies. Adjusted net income should not be viewed as a substitute for income before taxes calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted net income differently.

We present adjustments for amortization associated with acquired intangible assets. The intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting in connection with Tiptree’s acquisition of Fortegra Financial in 2014, Defend in 2019, and Smart AutoCare and Sky Auto in 2020. The intangible assets acquired contribute to overall revenue generation, and the respective purchase accounting adjustments will continue to occur in future periods until such intangible assets are fully amortized in accordance with the respective amortization periods required by GAAP.

Adjusted Return on Average Equity — Non-GAAP

We define adjusted return on average equity as adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period. See “—Adjusted Net Income—Non-GAAP” above. We use adjusted return on average equity as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Adjusted return on average equity should not be viewed as a substitute for return on average equity calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted return on average equity differently.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of liquidity are unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and other liquid investments and distributions from operating subsidiaries, including income from our investment portfolio and sales of assets and investments. We intend to use our cash resources to continue to fund our operations and grow our businesses. We may seek additional sources of cash to fund acquisitions or investments. These additional sources of cash may take the form of debt or equity and may be at the parent, subsidiary or asset level. We are a holding company and our liquidity needs are primarily for interest payments on the Fortress credit facility, compensation, professional fees, office rent and insurance costs. In February 2020, we refinanced our existing facility with Fortress, extending the maturity to February 2025 and increasing the principal amount to $125 million, generating approximately $53 million of cash after repaying the existing facility and expenses. A portion of those funds were invested in Fortegra to fund growth, with the remainder used to provide additional liquidity. As a condition to the closing of the WP Transaction, the Company is required to assign the Fortress credit facility to Fortegra, which would use proceeds from the WP Transaction to pay the unpaid principal balance of the Fortress credit facility. In addition, on or prior to the closing of the WP Transaction, Fortegra would have certain of its subsidiaries repay $30.0 million principal balance of aggregate intercompany promissory notes to Tiptree Holdings LLC, plus accrued interest.

Our subsidiaries’ ability to generate sufficient net income and cash flows to make cash distributions will be subject to numerous business and other factors, including restrictions contained in agreements for the strategic investment by Warburg
60


Pincus in Fortegra, our subsidiaries’ financing agreements, regulatory restrictions, availability of sufficient funds at such subsidiaries, general economic and business conditions, tax considerations, strategic plans, financial results and other factors such as target capital ratios and ratio levels anticipated by rating agencies to maintain or improve current ratings. We expect our cash and cash equivalents and distributions from operating subsidiaries, our subsidiaries’ access to financing, and sales of investments to be adequate to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months, as well as the long term.

As of March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, were $178.0 million, compared to $175.7 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $2.2 million primarily as a result of additional gross written premium and premium equivalents at Fortegra.

Our mortgage business relies on short term uncommitted sources of financing as a part of their normal course of operations. To date, we have been able to obtain and renew uncommitted warehouse credit facilities. If we were not able to obtain financing, then we may need to draw on other sources of liquidity to fund our mortgage business. See Note (10) Debt, net in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements, for additional information regarding our mortgage warehouse borrowings.

We believe that cash flow from operations will provide sufficient capital to continue to grow the business and fund interest on the outstanding debt, capital expenditures and other general corporate needs over the next several years. As we continue to expand our business, including by any acquisitions we may make, we may, in the future, require additional working capital for increased costs.

For purposes of determining enterprise value and Adjusted EBITDA, we consider corporate credit agreements and preferred trust securities, which we refer to as corporate debt, as corporate financing and associated interest expense is added back. The below table outlines this amount by debt outstanding and interest expense at the insurance company and corporate level.

As of March 31, 2022, the credit facility with Fortress carries a rate of LIBOR (with a minimum LIBOR rate of 1.0%), plus a margin of 6.75% per annum. The agreement requires quarterly principal payments of approximately $1.56 million. See Note (10) Debt, net in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for details.

On August 4, 2020, Fortegra entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among Fortegra and its wholly-owned subsidiary, LOTS Intermediate Co., as borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto, certain of Fortegra’s subsidiaries, as guarantors, and Fifth Third Bank, National Association, as the administrative agent and issuing lender (the “Fortegra Credit Agreement”). The Fortegra Credit Agreement provides for a $200.0 million revolving credit facility, all of which is available for the issuance of letters of credit, with a sub-limit of $17.5 million for swing loans, and matures on August 4, 2023. As of March 31, 2022, we had no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $149.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. In 2022, the primary sources of cash from operating activities included proceeds from mortgage loans outpacing originations and growth in insurance unearned premiums and deferred revenues, partially offset by increases in deferred acquisition costs and reinsurance receivables.

Cash provided by operating activities was $27.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In 2021, the primary sources of cash from operating activities included consolidated net income (excluding unrealized gains and losses), proceeds from mortgage loans outpacing originations and growth in unearned premiums and net deferred revenues, partially offset by increases in deferred acquisition costs and other assets in addition to decreases in other liabilities and accrued expenses and reinsurance payables.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. In 2022, the primary use of cash from investing activities was the purchase of investments outpacing proceeds from the sales of investments in our insurance investment portfolio, and the issuance of notes receivable outpacing proceeds.

Cash used in investing activities was $42.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In 2021, the primary use of cash from investing activities was the purchase of investments outpacing proceeds from the sales of investments in our insurance investment portfolio, and the issuance of notes receivable outpacing proceeds.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $124.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. In 2022, principal repayments on mortgage warehouse facilities exceeded proceeds from borrowings.

Cash used in financing activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In 2021, the primary use of cash from financing activities was the repurchase of $2.5 million of the Company’s common stock and the payment of $1.3 million in dividends, which was partially offset by proceeds from borrowings in excess of principal repayments in our mortgage operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
