概要
We are a provider of products and services to the specialty insurance market. We underwrite specialty casualty insurance products both through ourProgram Partners and also through our Owned MGAs. We also provide ourProgram Partners with a variety of services, including issuing carrier services, claims administration, and reinsurance brokerage, from which we generate recurring fee-based revenues. We have one reportable segment. We provide our insurance products and services to ourProgram Partners and Owned MGAs focused on specialty lines. We target a diversified portfolio of small to medium programs, typically with less than$30 million of premiums, that focus on niche segments of the specialty casualty insurance market and that we believe have strong underwriting track records. 25 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Coronavirus ("COVID-19") Impact We are monitoring the impact of the ongoing continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, including how it may impact our premium revenue, loss experience and loss expense, liquidity, and our regulatory capital and surplus, and operations. Workforce Operations Following the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, we took a number of actions to protect the health of the public and our employees and to comply with directives and advice of governmental authorities and public health experts. We responded by developing a Preparedness Plan that outlined both corporate-wide and location-specific modifications to working conditions and operations in our offices. As state, city, and county guidelines progress, we have implemented new health and safety in-office procedures where necessary while continuing to monitor the progression of new COVID-19 variants and related developments that could impact us in the future.
プレミアム収益、請求および損失
We have not experienced a material impact to our premium revenue as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 , gross written premiums increased by 10.0% and gross earned premiums increased by 23.6%, primarily driven by significant growth in our existing Program Partner business. Because a majority of our gross written premiums are related to workers' compensation insurance, revenue trends could be impacted in future periods if the COVID-19 pandemic were to continue or significantly get worse. However, a significant portion of our workers' compensation premiums are pay-as-you-go programs, which reduces our downside risk from future premium audits or refunds. We also have not experienced a material impact in our reported claims or incurred losses in the first three months of 2022 as a specific result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
投資ポートフォリオ

With respect to our investment portfolio, we seek to hold a high-quality, diversified portfolio of investments, which are primarily in fixed maturity and available-for-sale investments and as such, our investment portfolio has limited exposure to equity market volatility. For the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , we experienced a decrease of$23,804 in the fair value of our fixed maturities investment portfolio. The decline in the fair value of our fixed maturity investments is primarily attributable to the recent rise in interest rates driven primarily by changing conditions in the financial markets as compared to the comparatively lower rates that prevailed during the initial part of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, rather than underlying credit risk within our investment portfolio. If there were to be continued debt market volatility, which in turn could create mark-to-market investment valuation decreases, we expect there could be additional or increased unrealized losses recorded or realized losses, if sold, in future reporting periods. In addition, if there were to be continued equity financial market volatility, which in turn could create mark-to-market investment valuation decreases, we expect there could be additional or increased unrealized losses on equity investments held, which are recorded through net investment income, in future reporting periods. However, given the conservative nature of our investment portfolio, we expect that any adverse impact on the value of our investment portfolio, as it relates to COVID-19, will be temporary, and we do not expect a long-term negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
その他の懸念
Adverse events such as changes in the overall public health environment, changing infection patterns and new variants of COVID-19, health-related concerns about working in our offices, restrictions on travel, the potential impact on our business partners and customers, and other matters affecting our general work and business environment could harm our business and delay the implementation of our business strategy. We cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current global health crisis and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business in the future.
経営成績の重要な構成要素
Gross written premiums: Gross written premiums are the amounts received or to be received for insurance policies written or assumed by us during a specific period of time without reduction for general and administrative expenses (including policy acquisition costs), reinsurance costs or other deductions. The volume of our gross written premiums in any given period is generally influenced by: 26

Gross earned premiums: Gross earned premiums are the earned portion of gross written premiums. We earn insurance premiums on a pro rata basis over the term of the policy. Our insurance policies generally have a term of one year. Ceded earned premiums: Ceded earned premiums are the amount of gross earned premiums ceded to reinsurers. We enter into reinsurance contracts to limit our maximum losses and diversify our exposure and provide statutory surplus relief. The volume of our ceded earned premiums is affected by the level of our gross earned premiums and any decision we make to increase or decrease limits, retention levels, and co-participations. Net earned premiums: Net earned premiums represent the earned portion of our gross written premiums, less that portion of our gross written premiums that is earned and ceded to third-party reinsurers, including ourProgram Partners and professional reinsurers, under our reinsurance agreements. Net investment income: We earn investment income on our portfolio of cash and invested assets. Our cash and invested assets are primarily comprised of fixed maturities, equity securities, and short-term investments. Our net investment income includes interest income on our invested assets, income on funds held investments as well as unrealized gains and losses on our equity portfolio.

Other revenue: Other revenue includes brokerage, third-party administrative, management, consulting, and other fee-based revenues, which are commonly based on written premiums. Loss and loss adjustment expenses (LAE): Losses and LAE are net of reinsurance and include claims paid, estimates of future claim payments, changes in those estimates from prior reporting periods and costs associated with investigating, defending, and servicing claims. In general, our losses and LAE are affected by:

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses include net commissions, insurance-related expenses, and general and administrative operating expenses. Net commissions consist of policy acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses, net of ceding commissions. Policy acquisition costs are principally comprised of the commissions we pay our brokers and program managers. Policy acquisition costs that are directly related to the successful acquisition or reinsurance of those policies are deferred. All policy acquisition costs are charged to expense in proportion to premium earned over the policy life. We receive ceding commissions on business ceded under our reinsurance contracts.

Gross written premiums: Gross written premiums increased$14,673 , or 10.0%, to$161,403 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$146,730 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase is primarily attributable to the growth in our existing Program Partner business and the changes in gross written premiums were due to the following: Workers' compensation represented 61.1% of our gross written premiums for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to 67.6% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . For the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , gross written premiums for workers' compensation decreased by$593 , or 0.6%, compared to the same period in 2021. The moderation in growth and shift in mix reflects our ongoing effort to diversify our lines of business and a strategic decrease in ourCalifornia worker's compensation business that resulted from the Company's measures undertaken to exit certain unfavorable risks in 2021. All other non-workers' compensation liability represented 38.9% of our gross written premiums for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to 32.4% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . For the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , gross written premiums for all other non-workers' compensation liability increased$15,266 , or 32.1%, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is due primarily to growth in our accident & health, commercial auto and commercial lines, a result of continued line of business diversification. Gross earned premiums: Gross earned premiums increased$30,240 , or 23.6%, to$158,539 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$128,299 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase in gross earned premiums reflects the increase in gross written premiums of$14,673 net of a reduction in gross unearned premiums of$15,567 . Gross 30 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents earned premiums as a percentage of gross written premiums increased to 98.2% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to 87.4% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . Ceded earned premiums: Ceded earned premiums increased$7,197 , or 8.3%, to$94,362 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$87,165 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase in ceded earned premiums is driven by the growth in gross earned premiums as described above, partially offset by an increase in our retention. Ceded earned premiums as a percentage of gross earned premiums decreased to 59.5% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to 67.9% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 , reflecting the Company's strategic decision to retain more gross written premiums. Net earned premiums: Net earned premiums increased$23,043 , or 56.0%, to$64,177 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$41,134 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase is due to the growth in gross earned premiums as described above and the Company's strategic decision to retain more gross written premiums. Net investment income: Net investment income increased$304 , or 13.4%, to$2,576 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$2,272 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase reflects the reinvestment of funds from lower yielding maturities, pay downs and redemptions into higher yielding investments and an increase in our average invested balance. During the first quarter of 2022, we purchased$33,288 higher-yielding equity securities, which we believe will improve the yield on our portfolio. Net realized gains (losses): Net realized losses were$1,047 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to net realized gains of$13 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . We executed a repositioning strategy to sell some of our lower-yielding assets and purchased higher-yielding investments, prior to anticipated interest rate increases. This turnover in our portfolio resulted in realized losses recorded of$1,022 . Other revenue: Other revenue decreased$1,454 , or 31.2%, to$3,201 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$4,655 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The decrease is largely driven by a reduction in brokerage revenue of$862 due to lower placement rates reflecting the Company's continued increase in retention year over year. In addition, there was a slight reduction in managing general agent fees, consulting and other fee-based revenue during the period. Losses and loss adjustment expenses: Losses and LAE increased$14,312 , or 57.5%, to$39,193 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$24,881 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase is primarily attributable to the growth in earned premiums and increased retention during the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 . This resulted in a loss ratio of 61.1% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 compared to 60.5% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses increased$6,409 , or 53.9%, to$18,300 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$11,891 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 .

Direct commissions increased$4,800 primarily due to an increase in gross earned premiums. Ceding commissions decreased$1,211 due to an increase in retention, partially offset by an increase in ceded earned premiums reflecting the increase in gross earned premiums. Insurance-related expenses increased$1,495 primarily as a result of an increase in gross earned premiums. General and administrative operating expenses decreased$1,097 . The decrease in general and administrative operating expense is primarily the result of a decrease in professional fees of$801 and depreciation of$89 . Intangible asset amortization: Intangible asset amortization increased$85 to$1,499 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared to$1,414 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . The increase is driven by the addition of intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of WIC in the third quarter of 2021. Noncash stock compensation: Noncash stock compensation was$156 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , compared with$211 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 . Expenses incurred during both periods relates to the fair value of restricted stock units and stock options granted under the Company's 2020 Omnibus Plan amortized over appropriate and applicable vesting periods.

The increase in the fair value of the embedded derivatives is a result of the recent increase in interest rates, which has reduced the value of the underlying funds held investments under reinsurance agreements. Income tax expense: Income tax expense was$3,270 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , which resulted in an effective tax rate of 20.9%. The decrease in the effective tax rate from the statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to the impact of tax-exempt municipal income on the Company's investments, partially offset by the impact of state taxes. For the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 , income tax expense was$2,605 , which resulted in an effective tax rate of 21.6%. The increase in the effective tax rate from the statutory rate of 21% is due primarily to the impact of state taxes.

We define underwriting income as income before taxes excluding net investment income, investment revaluation gains, net realized gains or losses, intangible asset amortization, noncash stock compensation, non-cash changes in fair value of embedded derivatives, interest expense, other revenue, and other income and expenses. Underwriting income represents the pre-tax profitability of our underwriting operations and allows us to evaluate our underwriting performance without regard to investment income, IPO-related expenses, intangible asset amortization, noncash stock compensation, interest expense, other revenue, and other income and expenses.

We calculate the tax impact only on adjustments that would be included in calculating our income tax expense using the effective tax rate at the end of each period.

Dividends shall not include pro rata distributions of any class of Benchmark's own securities. UnderUtah law, dividends payable from ALIC without the prior approval of the applicable insurance commissioner must not exceed the lesser of: (i) 10% of ALIC's surplus as shown on the last statutory financial statement on file with theUtah Insurance Department or (ii) 100% of net income during the applicable twelve- month period (not including realized gains). Dividends shall not include pro rata distributions of any class of ALIC's own securities. UnderSouth Carolina law, dividends payable from 7710 without the prior approval of the applicable insurance commissioner are limited to the following during the preceding twelve months: (a) when paid from other than earned surplus must not exceed the lesser of: (i) 10% of 7710's surplus as regards policyholders as shown in 7710's most recent annual statement; or (ii) the net income, not including net realized gains or losses as shown in 7710's most recent annual statement; or (b) when paid from earned surplus must not exceed the greater of: (i) 10% of 7710's surplus as regards policyholders as shown in 7710Insurance Company's most recent annual statement; or (ii) the net income, not including net realized gains or losses as shown in the 7710Insurance Company's most recent annual statement. Dividends shall not include pro rata distributions of any class of 7710's own securities. UnderArkansas law, dividends payable from BSIC without the prior approval of the applicable insurance commissioner must not exceed the lesser of (i) 10% of BSIC's surplus as shown on the last statutory financial statement on file with theArkansas Insurance Department ; or (ii) 100% of net income during the applicable twelve- month period (not including realized gains). Dividends shall not include pro rata distributions of any class of BSIC's own securities. The maximum amount of dividends the insurance subsidiaries can pay us during 2022 without regulatory approval is approximately$17,800 . Insurance regulators have broad powers to ensure that statutory surplus remains at adequate levels, and there is no assurance that dividends of the maximum amount calculated under any applicable formula would be permitted. In the future, state insurance regulatory authorities that have jurisdiction over the payment of dividends by the insurance subsidiaries may adopt statutory provisions more restrictive than those currently in effect. Our insurance subsidiaries are also required by state law to maintain a minimum level of policyholders' surplus.Kansas ,Utah ,Arkansas andSouth Carolina utilize a risk-based capital requirement as promulgated by theNational Association of Insurance Commissioners . Such requirements are designed to identify the various business risks (e.g., investment risk, underwriting profitability risk, etc.) of insurance companies and their subsidiaries. As ofMarch 31, 2022 andDecember 31, 2021 , the total adjusted capital of our insurance subsidiaries was in excess of their respective prescribed risk-based capital requirements.

Our most significant source of cash is from premiums received from insureds, net of the related commission amount for the policies. Our most significant cash outflow is for claims that arise when a policyholder incurs an insured loss. Because the payment of claims occurs after the receipt of the premium, often years later, we invest the cash in various investment securities that generally earn interest and dividends. The table below summarizes our net cash flows. Three

Net cash provided by operating activities includes net income as adjusted for depreciation and amortization, stock compensation, unrealized gains on embedded derivatives, net realized gains and losses, bond amortization and accretion, the change in deferred income taxes, and amortization of deferred financing costs. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 primarily reflects decreased prepaid reinsurance premiums of$8,339 , increased unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses of$6,661 , increased unearned premiums of$2,962 , increased funds held under reinsurance agreements of$3,511 ; increases in reinsurance premiums payable of$1,765 and increased income taxes payable of$1,013 , partially offset by increases in premiums and other receivables of$11,133 , a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of$7,025 , an increase in reinsurance recoverables of$3,346 , and an increase in other assets of$3,718 . The decrease in prepaid reinsurance premiums was the result of increased retention, partially offset by the increase in ceded premiums. Unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses and unearned premiums increased primarily due to an increase in gross written premiums and an increase in our retention. Funds held under reinsurance agreements decreased due a reduction in the fair value of the embedded derivatives, partially offset by an increase in ceded premiums. The increases in premiums and other receivables and reinsurance recoverables were primarily a result of an increase in gross written premiums during the period. The decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses is due to reductions in accrued bonuses, accrued 401(k) match and accrued premium taxes, all paid in the first quarter of 2022. Other assets increased as a result of increases in our deferred acquisition costs and contract asset balances. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 reflects incremental cash used for operating assets and liabilities.

We cede a portion of the risk we accept on our balance sheet to third-party reinsurers through a variety of reinsurance arrangements. We manage these arrangements to align risks with ourProgram Partners , optimize our net retention relative to our financial objectives, balance sheet size and ratings requirements, as well as to limit our maximum loss resulting from a single program or a single event. We utilize both quota share and XOL reinsurance as tools in our overall risk management strategy to achieve these goals, usually in conjunction with each other. Quota share reinsurance involves the proportional sharing of premiums and losses of each defined program. We utilize quota share reinsurance for several purposes, including (i) to cede risk toProgram Partners , which allows us to share economics and align incentives and (ii) to cede risk to third-party reinsurers in order to manage our net written premiums appropriately based on our financial objectives, capital base,A.M. Best financial strength rating, and risk appetite. It is a core pillar of our underwriting philosophy thatProgram Partners retain a portion of the underwriting risk of their program. We believe this best aligns interests, attracts higher quality programs, and leads to better underwriting results. Under XOL reinsurance, losses in excess of a retention level are paid by the reinsurer, subject to a limit, and are customized per program or across multiple programs. We utilize XOL reinsurance to protect against catastrophic or other unforeseen extreme loss activity that could otherwise negatively impact our profitability and capital base. The majority of our exposure to catastrophe risk stems from the workers' compensation premium we retain. Potential catastrophic events include an earthquake, terrorism, or another event that could cause more than one covered employee working at the same location to be injured in the event. We believe we mitigate this risk by our focus on small- to mid-sized accounts, which means that we generally do not have concentrated employee counts at single locations that could be exposed to a catastrophic loss. The cost and limits of the reinsurance coverage we purchase vary from year to year based on the availability of quality reinsurance at an acceptable price and our desired level of retention. Ratings We have a financial strength rating of "A" (Excellent) fromA.M. Best .A.M. Best assigns 16 ratings to insurance companies, which currently range from "A++" (Superior) to "S" (Rating Suspended). "A" (Excellent) is the third highest rating issued byA.M. Best . The "A" (Excellent) rating is assigned to insurers that have, inA.M. Best's opinion, an excellent ability to meet their ongoing obligations to policyholders. This rating is intended to provide an independent opinion of an insurer's ability to meet its obligation to policyholders and is not an evaluation directed at investors. See also "Risk factors - Risks related to our business and industry - A downgrade in theA.M. Best financial strength ratings of our insurance company subsidiaries may negatively affect our business." in our 2021 Form 10-K. The financial strength ratings assigned byA.M. Best have an impact on the ability of the insurance companies to attract and retain agents and brokers and on the risk profiles of the submissions for insurance that the insurance companies receive. The "A" (Excellent) rating obtained by us is consistent with our business plan and allows us to actively pursue relationships with the agents and brokers identified in our marketing plan.

Table of Contents Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include amounts based on the use of estimates and judgments of management. We identified the accounting estimates that are critical to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations. Critical accounting estimates are defined as those estimates that are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require us to exercise significant judgment. We use significant judgment concerning future results and developments in applying these critical accounting estimates and in preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements. These judgments and estimates affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of our material contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our estimates regularly using information that we believe to be relevant. The estimates and judgments that are most critical to the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements include: (i) reserves for unpaid loss and LAE; (ii) reinsurance recoveries; (iii) investment fair value measurements; (iv) goodwill and intangible assets; and (v) business combinations. For a detailed discussion of our accounting policies, see the "Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements" included in our 2021 Form 10-K.
