UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements about anticipated growth in revenues, gross written premium, earnings per share, estimated unpaid losses on insurance policies, investment returns, and diversification and expectations about our liquidity, our ability to meet our investment objectives and our ability to manage and mitigate market risk with respect to our investments. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “endeavor,” “project,” “believe,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “would,” “estimate,” or “continue” or the negative variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and market in which we operate, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. The risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:
•
our exposure to catastrophic events and severe weather conditions;
•
the regulatory, economic and weather conditions present in Florida, Texas, and Louisiana, the states in which we are most concentrated;
•
our ability to cultivate and maintain agent relationships, particularly our relationship with AmRisc, LLC;
•
our reliance on certain agencies that account for a substantial portion of our policies-in-force;
•
the possibility that actual claims incurred may exceed our loss reserves for claims;
•
assessments charged by various governmental agencies;
•
our ability to implement and maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting;
•
our ability to maintain information technology and data security systems, and to outsource relationships;
•
our reliance on key vendor relationships, and the ability of our vendors to protect the personally identifiable information of our customers, claimants or employees;
•
our ability to attract and retain the services of senior management;
•
risks and uncertainties relating to our acquisitions, mergers, dispositions and other strategic transactions;
•
risks associated with joint ventures and investments in which we share ownership or management with third parties;
•
our ability to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness and comply with covenants and other requirements related to our indebtedness;
•
our ability to maintain our market share;
•
changes in the regulatory environment present in the states in which we operate;
•
the impact of new federal or state regulations that affect the insurance industry;
•
the cost, viability and availability of reinsurance;
•
our ability to collect from our reinsurers on our reinsurance claims;
•
dependence on investment income and the composition of our investment portfolio and related market risks;
•
the possibility of the pricing and terms for our products to decline due to the historically cyclical nature of the property and casualty insurance and reinsurance industry;
•
the outcome of litigation pending against us, including the terms of any settlements;
•
downgrades in our financial strength or stability ratings;
•
the impact of future transactions of substantial amounts of our common stock by us or our significant stockholders on our stock price;
•
our ability to meet the standards for continued listing on Nasdaq;
•
our ability to pay dividends in the future, which may be constrained by our holding company structure;
•
the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends in the future, which may affect our liquidity and our ability to meet our obligations;
•
the ability of R. Daniel Peed and his affiliates to exert significant control over us due to substantial ownership of our common stock, subject to certain restrictive covenants that may restrict our ability to pursue certain opportunities;
•
the impact of transactions by R. Daniel Peed and his affiliates on the price of our common stock;
•
provisions in our charter documents that may make it harder for others to obtain control of us;
•
the impact of the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) and related business disruption and economic uncertainty on our business, results of operations and financial condition; and
•
other risks and uncertainties described in the section entitled "
Risk Factors
" in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q.
We caution you not to rely on these forward-looking statements, which are valid only as of the date they were made. Except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise.

ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION
(a)
Business
United Insurance Holdings Corp. (referred to in this document as we, our, us, the Company or UPC Insurance) is a property and casualty insurance holding company that sources, writes and services residential personal and commercial property and casualty insurance policies using a network of agents and
three
wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Our original insurance subsidiary is United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC), which was formed in Florida in 1999. Our two other insurance subsidiaries are Interboro Insurance Company (IIC), acquired via merger on April 29, 2016; and American Coastal Insurance Company (ACIC), acquired via merger on April 3, 2017.
Our other subsidiaries include United Insurance Management, L.C. (UIM), a managing general agent that manages substantially all aspects of UPC's business; Skyway Claims Services, LLC, which provides claims adjusting services to UPC and ACIC; AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) which is a holding company subsidiary that consolidates its respective insurance company; BlueLine Cayman Holdings (BlueLine), which reinsures portfolios of excess and surplus policies; UPC Re, which provides a portion of the reinsurance protection purchased by our insurance subsidiaries when needed; Skyway Reinsurance Services, LLC, which provides reinsurance brokerage services for our insurance companies; Skyway Legal Services, LLC, which provides claims litigation services to our insurance companies; and Skyway Technologies, LLC, a managing general agent that provides technological and distribution services to our insurance companies.
Our primary products are homeowners' and commercial residential property insurance. We currently offer personal residential insurance in
seven
states, under authorization from the insurance regulatory authorities in each state. In addition, we write commercial residential insurance in Florida. During 2022, we also wrote commercial residential insurance in South Carolina, and Texas, however, effective May 1, 2022, we no longer write in these states. We are also licensed to write personal residential insurance in an additional
eleven
states; however, we have not commenced writing or no longer write in these states.
On August 25, 2022, we announced that UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entail non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. With this action, UPC will effectively be placed into an orderly run-off so long as UPC remains in compliance with the rules and regulations of each state. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, Inc. (Demotech), an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating.
Effective June 1, 2022, we merged our majority-owned insurance subsidiary, Journey Insurance Company (JIC) into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. JIC was formed in strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Kiln) on August 30, 2018 and operated independently from ACIC prior to the merging of the entities. The Kiln subsidiary held a noncontrolling interest in JIC, which was terminated prior to the merger.
Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap). Under the terms of this agreement, we cede 100% of our in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Effective June 1, 2022, we began the transition of South Carolina policies to Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty, Inc (HCPCI) in connection with our renewal rights agreement. As a result, these policies will no longer be covered under this agreement upon their renewal. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021.
Effective May 31, 2022, we merged Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC) into UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity. FSIC was acquired via merger on February 3, 2015, and operated independently from UPC prior to the merging of the entities. In conjunction with the merger, we dissolved Family Security Holdings (FSH), a holding company subsidiary that consolidated its respective insurance company, FSIC.
Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies was 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap. HCPCI is responsible for processing all claims as a part of this agreement. As of April 1, 2022, we completed the transition of all policies in these four states to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement) to sell UPC's personal lines homeowners business in these states.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
We conduct our operations under two reportable segments, personal residential property and casualty insurance policies (personal lines) and commercial residential property and casualty insurance policies (commercial lines). Our chief operating decision maker is our President, who makes decisions to allocate resources and assesses performance at both segment levels, as well as at the corporate level.
(b)
Consolidation and Presentation
We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods. We include all of our subsidiaries in our consolidated financial statements, eliminating intercompany balances and transactions during consolidation. Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
While preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reported amounts that require us to make extensive use of estimates include our reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, investments and goodwill. Except for the captions on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, we generally use the term loss(es) to collectively refer to both loss and loss adjustment expenses.
Our results of operations and our cash flows as of the end of the interim periods reported herein do not necessarily indicate our results for the remainder of the year or for any other future period.
(c)
Impact of COVID-19 and Financial Status
We did not experience a material impact from COVID-19 on our business operations, financial position, liquidity or our ability to service our policyholders during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions did not have a material impact on our access to credit and capital markets needed to maintain sufficient liquidity for our continued operating needs during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2021 we implemented our new flexible work policy. This policy allows all employees to work remotely permanently, with the return to our offices being completely voluntary at this time. We will continue to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and take reasonable measures to make sure customers continue to be served without interruption.
2)
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Income Taxes
In June 2022, we assessed our deferred tax position and believe it is more likely than not that the benefit from certain net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, we have recorded a valuation allowance of $
57,511,000
against our deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2022. If our assumptions change and we determine that we will be able to realize these NOLs, we will reverse the valuation allowance accordingly.
(b) Changes to Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
(c) Pending Accounting Pronouncements
We have evaluated pending accounting pronouncements and do not believe any would have an impact on the operations or financial reporting of our company.

3) SEGMENT REPORTING
Personal Lines Business
Our personal lines business provides structure, content and liability coverage for standard single-family homeowners, renters and condominium unit owners, through our subsidiaries UPC and IIC. Personal residential products are offered in all states in which we write business. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to dwellings, detached structures or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism.
We have developed a unique and proprietary homeowners’ product. This product uses a granular approach to pricing for catastrophe perils. We have focused on using independent agencies as a channel of distribution for our personal lines business. All of our personal lines business is managed internally.
Commercial Lines Business
Our commercial lines business primarily provides commercial multi-peril property insurance for residential condominium associations and apartments in Florida, through our subsidiary ACIC. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to buildings, inventory or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism. We also wrote commercial residential coverage through our subsidiary JIC, in South Carolina and Texas. Effective June 1, 2022 JIC was merged into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. As a result, the commercial residential policies originally written by JIC will not be renewed effective May 31, 2022.
All of our commercial lines business is administered by an outside managing general underwriter, AmRisc, LLC (AmRisc). This includes handling the underwriting, claims processing and premium collection related to our commercial business. In return, AmRisc is reimbursed through monthly management fees. International Catastrophe Insurance Managers (ICAT) handles the underwriting and premium collection for JIC’s commercial business written in South Carolina and Texas and is also reimbursed through monthly management fees. In 2022, the Company terminated its agreement with ICAT. Termination of this agreement is effective May 31, 2022.
Please note the following similarities pertaining to the accounting and transactions of our operating segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:
•
Both operating segments follow the accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021;
•
Neither operating segment experienced significant noncash transactions outside of depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and the receipt of HCI common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021, in connection with our Northeast Renewal Agreement.
The tables below present the information for each of the reportable segment's profit or loss, as well as segment assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Included in our General and Administrative expenses is $15,136,000 and $673,000 of depreciation and amortization expense related to our personal and commercial lines assets, respectively. Personal lines depreciation and amortization expenses includes $13,569,000 related to the impairment of goodwill.
(3)
As these are calculated ratios, the addition of the ratios will not result in the same value as the consolidated ratio. To calculate the consolidated ratio please see the corresponding footnote below.
(4)
Loss ratio, net is calculated as losses and LAE net of losses ceded to reinsurers, relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our loss trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate this component separately from our other operating expenses.
(5)
Expense ratio is calculated as the sum of all operating expenses less interest expense relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our expense trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately from our loss expenses.
(6)
Combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio, net and expense ratio. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our total expense trends and believes it is a key indicator for investors when evaluating the overall profitability of our business.

When we sell investments, we calculate the gain or loss realized on the sale by comparing the sales price (fair value) to the cost or adjusted/amortized cost of the security sold. We determine the cost or adjusted/amortized cost of the security sold using the specific-identification method.

Portfolio monitoring
We have a quarterly portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed-income security whose carrying value may be impaired as the result of a credit loss. For each fixed-income security in an unrealized loss position, if we determine that we intend to sell the security or that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of the cost or amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity needs, contractual or regulatory requirements, the security's entire decline in fair value is recorded in earnings.
If our management decides not to sell the fixed-income security and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the fixed-income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, we evaluate whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. This is typically indicated by a change in the rating of the security assigned by a rating agency, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security or industry, among other factors. If the assessment indicates that a credit loss may exist, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses will be recorded in earnings. Credit loss is limited to the difference between a security's amortized cost basis and its fair value. Any additional impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive loss.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we determined that none of our fixed-income securities shown in the table below that are in an unrealized loss position have declines in fair value that are reflected as a result of credit losses. Therefore, no credit loss allowance was recorded at September 30, 2022. The issuers of our debt security investments continue to make interest payments on a timely basis. We do not intend to sell, nor is it likely that we would be required to sell the debt securities before we recover our amortized cost basis. Equity securities are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the valuation of equity investments.

Fair value measurement
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that we can access.
Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:
(a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
(b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or
(c) Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect our estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.
We estimate the fair value of our investments using the closing prices on the last business day of the reporting period, obtained from active markets such as the NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American. For securities for which quoted prices in active

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
markets are unavailable, we use a third-party pricing service that utilizes quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, benchmark interest rates, broker quotes and other relevant inputs to estimate the fair value of those securities for which quoted prices are unavailable. Our estimates of fair value reflect the interest rate environment that existed as of the close of business on September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Changes in interest rates subsequent to September 30, 2022 may affect the fair value of our investments.
The fair value of our fixed maturities is initially calculated by a third-party pricing service. Valuation service providers typically obtain data about market transactions and other key valuation model inputs from multiple sources and, through the use of proprietary models, produce valuation information in the form of a single fair value for individual fixed-income and other securities for which a fair value has been requested. The inputs used by the valuation service providers include, but are not limited to, market prices from recently completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, liquidity spreads, currency rates and other information, as applicable. Credit and liquidity spreads are typically implied from completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities. Valuation service providers also use proprietary discounted cash flow models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry and similar to those used by other market participants to value the same financial information. The valuation models take into account, among other things, market observable information as of the measurement date, as described above, as well as the specific attributes of the security being valued, including its term, interest rate, credit rating, industry sector and, where applicable, collateral quality and other issue or issuer specific information. Executing valuation models effectively requires seasoned professional judgment and experience.
Any change in the estimated fair value of our fixed-income securities would impact the amount of unrealized gain or loss we have recorded, which could change the amount we have recorded for our investments and other comprehensive loss on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2022.

Other investments included in the fair value hierarchy exclude these limited partnership interests that are measured at estimated fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.
Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; this is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no financial instruments measured on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The carrying amounts for the following financial instrument categories approximate their fair values at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, because of their short-term nature: cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverable, reinsurance payable, other assets, and other liabilities. The carrying amount of the notes payable to the Florida State Board of Administration and our senior notes approximate fair value as the interest rates and terms are variable.

September 30, 2022
We are responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. We have implemented a system of processes and controls designed to provide assurance that our assets and liabilities are appropriately valued. For fair values received from third parties, our processes are designed to provide assurance that the valuation methodologies and inputs are appropriate and consistently applied, the assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded.
At the end of each quarter, we determine whether we need to transfer the fair values of any securities between levels of the fair value hierarchy and, if so, we report the transfer as of the end of the quarter. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we transferred no investments between levels.
For our investments in U.S. government securities that do not have prices in active markets, agency securities, state and municipal governments, and corporate bonds, we obtain the fair values from our investment custodians, which use a third-party valuation service. The valuation service calculates prices for our investments in the aforementioned security types on a month-end basis by using several matrix-pricing methodologies that incorporate inputs from various sources. The model the valuation service uses to price U.S. government securities and securities of states and municipalities incorporates inputs from active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. To price corporate bonds and agency securities, the valuation service calculates non-call yield spreads on all issuers, uses option-adjusted yield spreads to account for any early redemption features, and adds final spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve at 3 p.m. (ET) as of quarter end. Since the inputs the valuation service uses in its calculations are not quoted prices in active markets, but are observable inputs, they represent Level 2 inputs.
Other investments
We acquired investments in limited partnerships, recorded in the other investments line of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and these investments are currently being measured at estimated fair value utilizing a net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.

8) REINSURANCE
Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophes. Our program provides reinsurance protection for catastrophes, including hurricanes and tropical storms. These reinsurance agreements are part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our stockholders an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, and to reduce variability of earnings, while providing protection to our policyholders. Although reinsurance agreements contractually obligate our reinsurers to reimburse us for the agreed-upon portion of our gross paid losses, they do not discharge our primary liability.
Our program includes excess of loss and quota share treaties. Our catastrophe reinsurance program, in effect from June 1, 2022 through May 31, 2023, provides coverage for catastrophe losses from named or numbered windstorms and earthquakes up to an exhaustion point of approximately $
2,500,000,000
in the aggregate. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $
16,400,000
each. During the third quarter, one of the our reinsurer's participating on the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer of the core catastrophe program exercised a contractual right to terminate their participation due to Demotech's downgrade of UPC's Financial Stability Rating. We were unsuccessful in replacing this coverage in the open market so our captive reinsurer, UPC Re, stepped into the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer which was subsequently impacted by Hurricane Ian resulting in an additional retained loss of $20,100,000.The exhaustion point of

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $
200,000,000
in the aggregate, with a retention of $
3,000,000
per occurrence, covering all perils.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $891 million of occurrence limit remaining for Ian with $818 million specific to ACIC only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company has approximately $1.396 billion of aggregate limit remaining after Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.
Effective December 13, 2021, we renewed our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $
110,000,000
.
During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of September 30, 2022 for this contract. This change will result in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

% of the premiums written and the related risk of loss to the federal government. We earn commissions for the issuance of flood policies based upon a fixed percentage of net written premiums and the processing of flood claims based upon a fixed percentage of incurred losses, and we can earn additional commissions by meeting certain growth targets for the number of in-force policies. We recognized commission revenue from our flood program of $

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
Based upon our internal analysis and our review of the annual statement of actuarial opinion provided by our actuarial consultants at December 31, 2021, we believe that the reserve for unpaid losses reasonably represents the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.
As reflected in the table above, we had adverse development in 2022 related to prior year losses. This adverse development came as a result of the strengthening of our catastrophe reserves in 2022 based on historical loss trends. The loss payments made by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were lower than the loss payments made during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to the settling of claims during 2021 related to the unprecedented number of catastrophic events that took place in 2020. Case and IBNR reserves and reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses increased when compared to the prior period as a result of Hurricane Ian, which made landfall during the third quarter of 2022.

6.25
% per annum payable semi-annually on each June 15 and December 15, commencing June 15, 2018. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option, at any time and from time to time in whole or in part, prior to September 15, 2027, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon from the date of redemption to the date that is three months prior to maturity, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. On or after that date, we may redeem the Senior Notes at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
Florida State Board of Administration Note Payable
On September 22, 2006, we issued a $
20,000,000
, 20-year note payable to the Florida State Board of Administration (the SBA Note). For the first three years of the SBA Note we were required to pay interest only. On October 1, 2009, we began to repay the principal in addition to interest. The SBA Note bears an annual interest rate equivalent to the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate (as defined in the SBA Note agreement), which resets quarterly.
Truist Term Note Payable
On May 26, 2016, we issued a $
5,200,000

LIBOR was phased out at the end of 2021, however, the Intercontinental Exchange will continue to publish one-month LIBOR settings through 2023. The outstanding Truist Note payable balance, including applicable interest, was repaid in full on August 12, 2022. Therefore, effective August 12, 2022, Truist no longer holds our principal executive office as collateral and may not take possession of or foreclose upon the office.

Financial Covenants
Senior Notes -
Our Senior Notes provide that the Company and its subsidiaries shall not incur any indebtedness unless no default exists and the Company’s leverage ratio as of the last day of any annual or quarterly period (the balance sheet date) immediately preceding the date on which such additional indebtedness is incurred would have been no greater than 0.3:1, determined on a pro forma basis as if the additional indebtedness and all other indebtedness incurred since the immediately preceding balance sheet date had been incurred and the proceeds therefrom applied as of such day. The Company and its subsidiaries also may not create, assume, incur or permit to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money that is secured by a lien on the voting stock of any significant subsidiary without securing the Senior Notes equally. The Company may not issue, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the capital stock of the Company’s significant subsidiaries as of the issue date of the Senior Notes (except to the Company or to one or more of the Company’s other subsidiaries, or for the purpose of qualifying directors or as may be required by law or regulation), subject to certain exceptions. At December 31, 2021, while our leverage ratio was greater than the allowed ratio above, we did not incur any additional debt during the period and as a result, we were in compliance with the covenants in the Senior Notes.
SBA Note -
Our SBA Note requires that UPC maintain either a 2:1 ratio of net written premium to surplus, or net writing ratio, or a 6:1 ratio of gross written premium to surplus, or gross writing ratio, to avoid additional interest penalties. The SBA Note agreement defines surplus for the purpose of calculating the required ratios as the $20,000,000 of capital contributed to UPC under the agreement plus the outstanding balance of the note. Should UPC fail to exceed either a net writing ratio of 1.5:1 or a gross writing ratio of 4.5:1, UPC's interest rate will increase by 450 basis points above the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate, which was 3.10% at the end of September 2022. Any other writing ratio deficiencies result in an interest rate penalty of 25 basis points above the stated rate of the note. Our SBA Note further provides that the Florida State Board of Administration may, among other things, declare its loan immediately due and payable upon any default existing under the SBA Note; however, any payment is subject to approval by the insurance regulatory authority. At September 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants in the SBA Note.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
We are involved in claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and LAE during the period that we determine an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and we can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to our estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that we receive regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.
At September 30, 2022, the Company is involved in legal proceedings whereby on August 18, 2021, a former employee of Skyway Legal Services, LLC, filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit alleges violations of and damages arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and seeks damages in an unspecified amount. The Company, a named party to the lawsuit, denies that it employed the plaintiff and disputes the claims set forth in the lawsuit. On September 27, 2022, venue was transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. The Company believes that an unfavorable outcome is neither probable nor estimable.

In addition, on January 13, 2022,
Southern Florida Restoration (SFR) Services, LLC v. United Property and Casualty Insurance Company, et al.
was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The District Court dismissed the lawsuit on its own accord on January 14, 2022. SFR Services then filed an amended complaint on January 26, 2022. The complaint alleges four causes of action: (i) violation of the Federal Civil Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations statute (18 U.S.C. § 1962(c)), (ii) breach of contract, (iii) fraud, and (iv) violation of the Florida Unfair Insurance Trade Practices Act (Fla. Stat. Chpt. 626). The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages. The Company believes that an unfavorable outcome is neither probable nor estimable. The defendants moved to dismiss the lawsuit on March 25, 2022 and their motion was granted October 12, 2022.

Employee Retention Credit
A series of legislation was enacted in the United States during 2020 and 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that provided financial relief for businesses impacted by government-mandated shutdowns, work stoppages, or other losses suffered by employers. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) provided an employee retention credit, which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes of up to $5,000 per employee for eligible employers. The tax credit is equal to 50% of qualified wages paid to employees during a quarter, capped at $10,000 of qualified wages per employee. During the second quarter of 2022, we evaluated our eligibility and filed for a $10,161,000 refund in connection with our Employee Retention Tax Credit for the tax year ended December 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2022, we have received
31
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
$254,000 from the Internal Revenue Service related to this refund. A gain contingency is an uncertain situation that will be resolved in the future, possibly resulting in a gain. We have not recorded the recognition of this gain contingency, except for what has already been received, prior to settlement of the underlying event. We will continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the outcome and will make any appropriate adjustments each quarter.
UPC Run-off Plan
During the third quarter of 2022, UPC received approval from regulatory authorities in Florida, Louisiana and Texas to withdraw from these markets. However, there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding the viability of the run-off plan ultimately being successful. Underwriting losses, weak risk-adjusted capitalization, projected insufficient liquidity absent additional capital contributions, and the potential inability of UPC to obtain future reinsurance protection has led to increased concerns and monitoring by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation.
12)
ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES
We are exposed to credit losses primarily through three different pools of assets based on similar risk characteristics: premiums receivable for direct written business; reinsurance recoverables from ceded losses to our reinsurers; and our notes receivable. We estimate the expected credit losses based on historical trends, credit ratings assigned to reinsurers by rating agencies, average default rates, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that affect the collectability of the reported amounts over its expected life. Changes in the relevant information may significantly affect the estimates of expected credit losses.
The allowance for credit losses is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the assets to present their net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected. Each period, the allowance for credit losses is adjusted through earnings to reflect expected credit losses over the remaining lives of the assets.
The following tables summarize our allowance for expected credit losses by pooled asset for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATION
The insurance industry is heavily regulated. State laws and regulations, as well as national regulatory agency requirements, govern the operations of all insurers such as our insurance subsidiaries. The various laws and regulations require that insurers maintain minimum amounts of statutory surplus and risk-based capital, restrict insurers' ability to pay dividends, specify allowable investment types and investment mixes, and subject insurers to assessments. Effective June 1, 2022, our insurance subsidiaries JIC and ACIC were merged, with ACIC being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, our insurance subsidiaries UPC and FSIC were merged, with UPC being the surviving entity. Both UPC and ACIC are domiciled in Florida, while IIC is domiciled in New York. At September 30, 2022, and during the three and nine months then ended, our insurance subsidiaries met all regulatory requirements of the states in which they operate.
During 2022, we received an assessment notice from the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (FIGA). This assessment will be 1.3% on direct written premium of all covered lines of business in Florida to cover the cost of an insurance company
32
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2022
facing insolvency. This assessment is in addition to FIGA's 0.7% assessment, described below, and is recoupable from policyholders. During 2021, we received an assessment notice from FIGA of 0.7% on all direct written premium of Florida lines of business during 2022. In addition, during 2021, we received an assessment notice from the Louisiana Insurance Guarantee Association (LIGA). LIGA is assessing property and casualty insurers $100,000,000 in the aggregate to cover the cost of two regional insurance companies facing insolvency.
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines for insurance companies that are designed to assess capital adequacy and to raise the level of protection that statutory surplus provides for policyholders. Most states, including Florida and New York, have enacted statutory requirements adopting the NAIC RBC guidelines, and insurers having less statutory surplus than required will be subject to varying degrees of regulatory action, depending on the level of capital inadequacy. State insurance regulatory authorities could require an insurer to cease operations in the event the insurer fails to maintain the required statutory capital.
The state laws of Florida and New York permit an insurer to pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of statutory surplus derived from net operating profit and net realized capital gains. The state laws further provide calculations to determine the amount of dividends or distributions that can be made without the prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states and the amount of dividends or distributions that would require prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states. Statutory RBC requirements may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause statutory surplus to fall below minimum RBC requirements.
The SBA Note is considered a surplus note pursuant to statutory accounting principles. As a result, UPC is subject to the authority of the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Florida with regard to its ability to repay principal and interest on the SBA Note. Any payment of principal or interest requires permission from the insurance regulatory authority.
Our insurance subsidiaries must each file with the various insurance regulatory authorities an “Annual Statement” which reports, among other items, statutory net income (loss) and surplus as regards policyholders, which is called stockholders' equity under GAAP. The table below details the statutory net income (loss) for each of our regulated entities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

years. We had approximately $
62,000
of unrecognized director stock-based compensation expense at September 30, 2022 related to non-vested director stock-based compensation granted, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately
0.6
years.
Restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance stock units
Stock-based compensation cost for restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units is measured based on the closing fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, which vest in equal installments over the requisite service period of typically three years. Restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors vest over a one-year period. Each restricted stock unit and performance stock unit represents our obligation to deliver to the holder one share of common stock upon vesting.
Performance stock units vest based on the Company's return on average equity compared to a defined group of peer companies. On the grant date, we issue the target number of performance stock units. They are subject to forfeitures if performance goals are not met. The actual number of performance stock units earned can vary from zero to 150 percent of the target for the 2022, 2021, and 2020 awards.
We did not grant shares of restricted common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2022. We granted
2,551
shares of restricted common stock during the three month period ended September 30, 2021, which had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $

Expected annual dividend yield for our options granted prior to the third quarter of 2021 is based on a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share and the stock price on the grant date. The expected annual dividend yield for our options granted during and after the third quarter of 2021 is based on no dividends being paid in future quarters. The expected volatility is a historical volatility calculated based on the daily closing prices over a period equal to the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the grant date. Expected term takes into account the three-year graded vesting term and the 10-year contractual term of the option.
We did not grant any stock options during the three months ended September 30, 2022. We granted
900,000
stock options during the three months ended September 30, 2021, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview
United Insurance Holdings Corp. (referred to in this document as we, our, us, the Company or UPC Insurance) is a holding company primarily engaged in personal and commercial property and casualty insurance business with investments in the United States. We conduct our business principally through our three wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries: United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC); American Coastal Insurance Company (ACIC); and Interboro Insurance Company (IIC). Collectively, we refer to the holding company and all our subsidiaries, including non-insurance subsidiaries, as “UPC Insurance,” which is the preferred brand identification for our Company.
Our Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from writing insurance in Florida, Louisiana, New York and Texas. The Company also writes policies in Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina where renewal rights have been sold and all premiums and losses are ceded. Effective April 1, 2022, we no longer write in the state of Massachusetts, and effective January 15, 2022, we no longer write in the state of New Jersey. Effective January 1, 2021, we no longer write in the state of Hawaii, and effective December 1, 2021, we no longer write in the states of Connecticut or Rhode Island, though we are still licensed to write in all five states. We are also licensed to write property and casualty insurance in an additional six states; however, we have not commenced writing or no longer write in these states.
On August 25, 2022, we announced our that UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entail non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. With this action, UPC will effectively be placed into an orderly run-off so long as UPC remains in compliance with the rules and regulations of each state. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, Inc., an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating.
Our Company, together with wholly-owned subsidiaries UPC and United Insurance Management, L.C. (UIM), entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Southeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of December 30, 2021 with Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty, Inc. (HCPCI), pursuant to which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. The transfer of policies is subject to regulatory approval. Effective June 1, 2022, we began transitioning South Carolina policies to HCPCI. The sale was consummated on December 30, 2021.
Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap) in connection with the Southeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we cede 100% of our in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021. Also effective June 1, our third-party quota share reinsurance agreements were renewed to exclude these states. We will no longer retain any risk associated with these states.
Our Company, together with wholly-owned subsidiaries UPC and UIM, entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of January 18, 2021 with HCPCI and HCI Group, Inc. (HCI), pursuant to which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island. The transfer of all states was completed as of June 30, 2022.
Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap in connection with the Northeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we cede 100% of our in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies is 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
We have historically grown our business through strong organic growth, complemented by strategic acquisitions and partnerships, including our acquisitions of AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) and its subsidiaries, including ACIC, in April 2017, IIC in April 2016, and Family Security Holdings, LLC (FSH), including its subsidiary Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC), in February 2015, and our strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Tokio Marine), which formed Journey Insurance Company (JIC) in August 2018. Effective June 1, 2022, we merged JIC into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, we merged FSIC into UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity.
As a result of underwriting actions implemented during the fourth quarter of 2020 and throughout 2021, as well as the transfer of Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts and South Carolina policies to HCPCI, our policies in-force decreased by 42.5% from 525,969 policies in-force at September 30, 2021 to 302,296 policies in-force at September 30, 2022.
The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing the consolidated financial position and results of operations of UPC Insurance. In evaluating our results of operations, we use premiums written and earned, policies in-force and new and renewal policies by geographic concentration. We also consider the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year development on our loss ratios, expense ratios and combined ratios. In monitoring our investments, we use credit quality, investment income, cash flows, realized gains and losses, unrealized gains and losses, asset diversification and portfolio duration. To evaluate our financial condition, we consider our liquidity, financial strength, ratings, book value per share and return on equity.
Impact of COVID-19
We did not experience a material impact from COVID-19 on our business operations, financial position, liquidity or our ability to service our policyholders during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions did not have a material impact on our access to credit and capital markets needed to maintain sufficient liquidity for our continued operating needs during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2021 we implemented our new flexible work policy. This policy allows all employees to work remotely permanently, with the return to our offices being completely voluntary at this time. We will continue to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and take reasonable measures to make sure customers continue to be served without interruption.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures
We believe that investors' understanding of UPC Insurance's performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
Combined ratio excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying combined ratio)
is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year development from the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors and it is used by management to highlight the trends in our business that may be obscured by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development. Current year catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their frequency of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year development is caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered as a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
Net loss and LAE excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying loss and LAE)
is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development from net loss and LAE. We use underlying loss and LAE figures to analyze our loss trends that may be impacted by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development on our reserves. As discussed previously, these two items can have a significant impact on our loss trends in a given period. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE. The underlying loss and LAE measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
Net loss excluding the effects of amortization of intangible assets, realized gains and unrealized gains on equity securities, net of tax (core loss)
is a non-GAAP measure, which is computed by adding amortization, net of tax, to net loss and subtracting realized gains (losses) on our investment portfolio, net of tax, and unrealized gains (losses) on our equity securities, net of tax, from net loss. Amortization expense is related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired, including goodwill, through mergers and therefore the expense does not arise through normal operations. Investment portfolio gains (losses) and unrealized equity security gains (losses) vary independent of our operations. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss. The core loss measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
When we prepare our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with GAAP, we must make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts we report. Certain of these estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex. As a result of that subjectivity and complexity, and because we continuously evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on a variety of factors, actual results could materially differ from our estimates and assumptions if changes in one or more factors require us to make accounting adjustments. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we reassessed our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In June 2022, we assessed our deferred tax position and recorded a valuation allowance against all of our deferred tax assets. We intend to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of this allowance. In addition, in September 2022, as a result of the decision to place UPC into an orderly runoff, we impaired the full balance of goodwill attributable to our personal lines operating segment.We have made no other material changes or additions with regard to those policies and estimates.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION - SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2021
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, and in conjunction with the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Investments
The primary goals of our investment strategy are to preserve capital, maximize after-tax investment income, maintain liquidity and minimize risk. To accomplish our goals, we purchase debt securities in sectors that represent the most attractive relative value, and we maintain a moderate equity exposure. Limiting equity exposure manages risks and helps to preserve capital for two reasons: first, bond market returns are less volatile than stock market returns, and second, should the bond issuer enter bankruptcy liquidation, bondholders generally have a higher priority than equity holders in a bankruptcy proceeding. Our investment strategy is the same for both our personal lines and commercial lines operating segments.
We must comply with applicable state insurance regulations that prescribe the type, quality and concentrations of investments our insurance subsidiaries can make; therefore, our current investment policy limits investment in non-investment-grade fixed maturities and limits total investment amounts in preferred stock, common stock and mortgage notes receivable. We do not invest in derivative securities.
Two outside asset management companies, which have authority and discretion to buy and sell securities for us, manage our investments subject to (i) the guidelines established by our Board of Directors and (ii) the direction of management. The Investment Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and approves our investment policy on a regular basis.
Our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investment portfolio totaled $768,602,000 at September 30, 2022, compared to $964,844,000 at December 31, 2021.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
We classify all of our fixed-maturity investments as available-for-sale. Our investments at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consisted mainly of U.S. government and agency securities, states, municipalities and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and securities of investment-grade corporate issuers. Our equity holdings consisted mainly of securities issued by companies in the financial, utilities and industrial sectors or mutual funds. At September 30, 2022, approximately 83.8% of our fixed maturities were U.S. Treasuries or corporate bonds rated “A” or better, and 16.2% were corporate bonds rated “BBB” or "BB".
Reinsurance
We follow the industry practice of reinsuring a portion of our risks. Reinsurance involves transferring, or "ceding", all or a portion of the risk exposure on policies we write to another insurer, known as a reinsurer. To the extent that our reinsurers are unable to meet the obligations they assume under our reinsurance agreements, we remain primarily liable for the entire insured loss under the policies we write.
Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophe losses. According to the Insurance Service Office (ISO), a catastrophe loss is defined as a single unpredictable incident or series of closely related incidents that result in $25,000,000 or more in U.S. industry-wide direct insured losses to property and that affect a significant number of policyholders and insurers (ISO catastrophes). In addition to ISO catastrophes, we also include as catastrophes those events (non-ISO catastrophes), which may include losses, that we believe are, or will be, material to our operations which we define as incidents that result in $1,000,000 or more in losses for multiple policyholders.
During the second quarter of 2022, we placed our reinsurance program for the 2022 hurricane season. We purchased catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance protection up to an exhaustion point of approximately $2,500,000,000 in the aggregate. The treaties reinsure for personal and commercial lines property excess catastrophe losses caused by multiple perils including hurricanes and tropical storms. The agreements became effective as of June 1, 2022, for a one-year term, and incorporate the mandatory coverage required by and placed with the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF) and coverage required under the Reinsurance to Assist Policyholders Program (RAP Program). The FHCF and RAP Program covers Florida risks only and we participate at 90%. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $16,400,000. During the third quarter, one of our reinsurer's participating on the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer of the core catastrophe program exercised a contractual right to terminate their participation due to Demotech's downgrade of UPC's Financial Stability Rating. We were unsuccessful in replacing this coverage in the open market so our captive reinsurer, UPC Re, stepped into the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer which was subsequently impacted by Hurricane Ian resulting in an additional retained loss of $20,100,000 million. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $200,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $891 million of occurrence limit remaining for Ian with $818 million specific to ACIC only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company has approximately $1.396 billion of aggregate limit remaining after Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.
Effective December 13, 2021, we renewed our all other perils (AOP) catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement
provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $110,000,000.
During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of September 30, 2022 for this contract. This change will result in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

Note 8
in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our reinsurance program.
Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustments
We generally use the term “loss(es)” to collectively refer to both loss and LAE. We establish reserves for both reported and unreported unpaid losses that have occurred at or before the balance sheet date for amounts we estimate we will be required to pay in the future, including provisions for claims that have been reported but are unpaid at the balance sheet date and for obligations on claims that have been incurred but not reported at the balance sheet date. Our policy is to establish these loss reserves after considering all information known to us at each reporting period. At any given point in time, our loss reserve represents our best estimate of the ultimate settlement and administration costs of our insured claims incurred and unpaid.
Unpaid losses and LAE totaled $1,679,567,000 and $1,084,450,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Of this total, $1,170,278,000 and $854,073,000, respectively, is related to our personal lines operating segment. The remaining $509,289,000 and $230,377,000, respectively, is related to our commercial lines operating segment. On a consolidated basis, this balance has increased from year end as a result of Hurricane Ian which made landfall in the third quarter of 2022.
Since the process of estimating loss reserves requires significant judgment due to a number of variables, such as fluctuations in inflation, judicial decisions, legislative changes and changes in claims handling procedures, our ultimate liability will likely differ from these estimates. We revise our reserve for unpaid losses as additional information becomes available, and reflect adjustments, if any, in our earnings in the periods in which we determine the adjustments as necessary.
See
Note 9
in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our losses and loss adjustments.
Inflation
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the United States began experiencing an increase in the rate of inflation. During the first half of 2022, inflation hit 8.6%, its highest level since 1981, impacting all industries. Premium rates charged to policyholders are typically developed several months prior to implementation, using market information available at the time of the filing. While we attempt to charge adequate premium rates to combat increased costs, during periods of high inflation, we may not have included the negative impact to loss and loss adjustment expenses into our projections, resulting in premium rates that may not be sufficient. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to raise premium rates due to regulatory restrictions. As a result of the inflation during 2022, higher loss and loss adjustment expenses have had a negative impact on our results of operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
49
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
In response to inflation, the Federal Reserve has also increased interest rates which may negatively affect the market value of our investment portfolio and our rate of return on investments. Management monitors and responds to the inflationary pressure and changing interest rate environment for potential long-term material impacts to our investment portfolio and results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021
Net losses attributable to UIHC for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $56,562,000, or 394.9%, to a net loss of $70,884,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $14,322,000 for the same period in 2021. Drivers of the net loss during the three months ended September 30, 2022 include: decreased gross written premiums which were partially offset by a decline in ceded premiums earned, unfavorable prior year loss development during the quarter, the impact of Hurricane Ian making landfall in Florida as a category four hurricane, and impairment of goodwill attributable to our personal lines operating segment.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums decreased $67,290,000, or 20.9%, to $255,203,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 from $322,493,000 for the same period in 2021. This decrease was driven primarily by the transition of the Northeast business to HCPCI in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the first half of 2022. In addition, the Company experienced a decline in written premiums across the personal lines business, due to underwriting actions taken by the Company throughout 2021 and in the first half of 2022. The breakdown of the quarter-over-quarter changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by region and gross written premium by line of business are shown in the table below.

Expenses
Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased $13,129,000, or 7.2%, to $194,570,000 from $181,441,000 for the same period in 2021. The increase in expenses was primarily due to an increase in loss and LAE expenses and general and administrative expenses of $14,459,000 and $12,451,000 in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by decreased policy acquisition costs and operating costs in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Loss and LAE increased by $14,459,000, or 14.1%, to $117,228,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $102,769,000 for the third quarter of 2021. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums increased 33.8 points to 100.9% for the third quarter of 2022, compared to 67.1% for the third quarter of 2021. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the third quarter of 2022 would have been 11.7%, a decrease of 6.4 points from 18.1% during the third quarter of 2021.
Policy acquisition costs decreased by $7,981,000, or 17.0%, to $38,944,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $46,925,000 for the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to decreases in agent commissions, policy administration fees, and premium taxes of $8,591,000, $1,256,000 and $420,000, respectively, which fluctuate in conjunction with the quarter-over-quarter decrease in personal lines gross written premium. In addition, external management fees incurred related to our commercial lines gross written premium decreased $1,256,000 during the third quarter of 2022, driven by the termination of the profit share component of our external commercial management agreement.. This was partially offset by a decrease in ceding commission income of $4,653,000 related to changes in terms of our quota share reinsurance agreements.
Operating and underwriting expenses decreased by $5,814,000, or 37.7%, to $9,615,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $15,429,000 for the third quarter of 2021, driven by a decrease in investments in technology of $4,505,000 and decreased underwriting expenses of $1,850,000 as a result of the decrease in personal lines premiums described above.

General and administrative expenses increased by $12,451,000, or 89.3%, to $26,391,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $13,940,000 for the third quarter of 2021, driven by the impairment of goodwill attributable to our personal lines operating segment, totaling $13,569,000.
Personal Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $43,931,000, or 169.9%, to a pre-tax loss of $69,789,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from a pre-tax loss of $25,858,000 for the same period in 2021. The change in pretax earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in gross written premiums quarter-over-quarter as described below. Expenses decreased quarter-over-quarter, driven by decreased loss & LAE, policy acquisition costs, and operating expenses. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses quarter-over-quarter. The details of the change in these expenses are described below.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased $79,773,000, or 30.9%, to $178,336,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 from $258,109,000 for the same period in 2021. This decrease was driven primarily by the transition of the Northeast business to HCPCI in the fourth quarter of 2021 and first half of 2022. In addition, gross written premiums have declined across our personal lines business, due to underwriting actions taken throughout 2021 and the first half of 2022.

Commercial Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our commercial lines operating segment for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $8,434,000, or 82.7%, to pre-tax income of $1,762,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from pre-tax income of $10,196,000 for the same period in 2021. The change in earnings was primarily driven by increased loss and LAE incurred, driven by increased catastrophe losses primarily as the result of Hurricane Ian making landfall in 2022. This increase was partially offset by increased gross written premiums quarter-over-quarter, the details of which are described below.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased $12,483,000, or 19.4%, to $76,867,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 from $64,384,000 for the same period in 2021. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in written premiums in the state of Florida, as we focus on increasing commercial written premiums and transitioning towards a specialty commercial lines underwriter.

Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums increased 38.7 points to 57.5% for the third quarter of 2022, compared to 18.8% for the third quarter of 2021. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the third quarter of 2022 would have been 7.3%, a decrease of 0.1 points from 7.4% during the third quarter of 2021.
Policy acquisition costs attributable to our commercial lines operating segment decreased by $954,000, or 4.1%, to $22,430,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $23,384,000 for the third quarter of 2021, driven by decreases in external management fees of $1,256,000, as a result of the termination of the profit share component of our external commercial management agreement. In addition, ceding commission income related to our quota share reinsurance agreements increased $923,000, driven by the changes in terms made to these agreements. These decreases were partially offset by increases to agent commission expenses and premium taxes of $858,000 and $377,000, respectively, both of which fluctuate in conjunction with the quarter-over-quarter increase in commercial lines gross written premium.
Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment decreased by $705,000, or 49.6%, to $717,000 for the third quarter of 2022 from $1,422,000 for the third quarter of 2021, driven by decreased allocations of expenses for investments in technology of $768,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021
Net losses attributable to UIHC for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $117,482,000, or 211.3%, to a net loss of $173,085,000 from $55,603,000 for the same period in 2021. The change in earnings was primarily due to a decrease in total revenue as a result of the decline in gross written premiums year-over-year as described below. This decrease in revenues was partially offset by lower expenses for the quarter. Loss and LAE incurred decreased from reduced geographic exposure to current year catastrophe and non-catastrophe losses during 2022. Policy acquisition costs decreased year-over-year, as described below. Our provision for income taxes increased year-over-year due to the recognition of a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets beginning in the second quarter of 2022.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums decreased $165,731,000, or 15.6%, to $894,824,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $1,060,555,000 for the same period in 2021. This decrease was driven primarily by the transition of the Northeast business to HCPCI in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the first half of 2022. In addition, we experienced a decline in written premiums across our personal lines business, due to underwriting actions taken throughout 2021 and during the first half of 2022. Our commercial written premiums have increased year over year, offsetting the personal lines decrease in Florida, resulting in a net increase for the region. The breakdown of the year-over-year changes in both direct and assumed written premiums by region and gross written premium by line of business are shown in the table below.

The primary driver of the decrease was a decrease in the Company's agent commissions, premium taxes, and policy administration fees of $32,543,000, $3,920,000 and $2,952,000, respectively, which fluctuate in conjunction with the year-over-year decrease in personal lines gross written premium. This was partially offset by a $4,709,000 increase in external management fees incurred during 2022 as a result of an increased volume of commercial written premium and a decrease of $1,041,000 in ceding commission income as a result of changes made to the terms of our quota share agreements.
Operating expenses decreased $7,251,000, or 17.2%, to $34,882,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $42,133,000 for the same period in 2021, primarily due to decreased investments in technology of $5,971,000 and decreased underwriting expenses of $1,422,000 driven by the decrease in personal lines premiums described above.
General and administrative expenses increased $13,956,000, or 32.5%, to $56,890,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $42,934,000 for the same period in 2021 primarily due to the impairment of goodwill attributable to our personal lines operating segment totaling $13,569,000.
Personal Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $80,510,000, or 86.8%, to a pre-tax loss of $173,270,000 from a pre-tax loss of $92,760,000 for the same period in 2021. The change in pretax earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in revenues during 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 as a result of decreased gross written premiums, the details of which are described below. The decrease in revenues was partially offset by lower loss and LAE incurred. Policy acquisition and operating costs also decreased for the period, the details of which are described below.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased $223,223,000 or 30.5%, to $508,926,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $732,149,000 for the same period in 2021. This decrease was driven primarily by the transition of our Northeast business to HCPCI in the fourth quarter of 2021 and first half of 2022. In addition, direct written premiums have declined across our personal lines business, due to underwriting actions taken throughout 2021 and in the first half of 2022. The breakdown of the personal lines operating segment year-over-year changes in direct written premiums by region is shown in the table below.

Expenses
Expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased $83,326,000, or 18.9%, to $357,289,000 from $440,615,000 for the same period in 2021. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in loss and LAE expenses of $54,151,000 during 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. In addition, policy acquisition costs decreased by $34,923,000 and our operating costs decreased $6,599,000 during 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in administrative costs of $12,328,000 during 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

Policy acquisition costs attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $34,923,000, or 50.0%, to $34,912,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $69,835,000 for the same period in 2021, primarily due to a decrease in agent commissions, premium taxes, and policy administration fees of $32,123,000, $5,673,000 and $2,926,000, respectively, which fluctuate in conjunction with the year-over-year decrease in personal lines gross written premium. This was partially offset by ceding commission income decreasing by $7,258,000, driven by changes in the terms of our quota share agreements.
Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $6,599,000, or 17.3%, to $31,641,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $38,240,000 for the same period in 2021, due to decreased investments in technology of $5,232,000 and decreased underwriting expenses as a result of decreased personal lines written premiums described above.
General and administrative expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment increased $12,328,000, or 34.1%, to $48,518,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $36,190,000 for the same period in 2021, driven by the impairment of goodwill attributable to the segment totaling $13,569,000.
Commercial Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our commercial lines operating segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased $8,428,000, or 35.6%, to pre-tax income of $32,130,000 from pre-tax income of $23,702,000 for the same period in 2021. The change in earnings was primarily driven by increased gross written premiums, the details of which are described below. This increase was partially offset by increased loss and LAE incurred during 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, driven by increased catastrophe losses year-over-year.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased $57,492,000, or 17.5%, to $385,898,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $328,406,000 for the same period in 2021. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in written premiums in the state of Florida, as we focus on increasing commercial written premiums and transitioning to a specialty commercial lines underwriter. The breakdown of the commercial lines operating segment year-over-year changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by state are shown in the table below.

In addition, we incurred $851,000 in additional allocated salary expenses in 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We generate cash through premium collections, reinsurance recoveries, investment income, the sale or maturity of invested assets, the incurrence of debt and the issuance of additional shares of our stock. We use our cash to pay reinsurance premiums, claims and related costs, policy acquisition costs, salaries and employee benefits, other expenses and stockholder dividends, acquire subsidiaries and pay associated costs, as well as to repay debts, repurchase stock and purchase investments.
As a holding company, we do not conduct any business operations of our own and, as a result, we rely on cash dividends or intercompany loans from our management subsidiaries to pay our general and administrative expenses. Insurance regulatory authorities heavily regulate our insurance subsidiaries, including restricting any dividends paid by our insurance subsidiaries and requiring approval of any management fees our insurance subsidiaries pay to our management subsidiaries for services rendered; however, nothing restricts our non-insurance company subsidiaries from paying us dividends other than state corporate laws regarding solvency. Our management subsidiaries pay us dividends primarily using cash from the collection of management fees from our insurance subsidiaries, pursuant to the management agreements in effect between those entities. In accordance with state laws, our insurance subsidiaries may pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of their statutory surplus derived from their net operating profit and their net realized capital gains. The Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines published by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause their respective surplus as it regards policyholders to fall below minimum RBC guidelines. See
Note 13
in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company made capital contributions totaling $16,000,000 to our insurance subsidiary UPC. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company made capital contributions of $55,000,000 and $11,200,000 each to our insurance subsidiaries, UPC and FSIC. The contribution made to FSIC was made prior to the merging of FSIC into UPC. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company made capital contributions of $7,000,000 and $2,000,000 to our insurance subsidiaries, UPC and FSIC, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, IIC paid a dividend of $3,500,000 to the Company. In addition, the Company made capital contributions of $5,500,000, $7,000,000 and $10,000,000 to our insurance subsidiaries, FSIC, UPC and ACIC, respectively. We may make future contributions of capital to our insurance subsidiaries as circumstances require.
The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting global disruptions have caused significant volatility in financial markets. However, during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2022, the disruptions did not have an impact on our access to credit and capital markets needed to maintain sufficient liquidity for our continued operating needs. We expect to continue to maintain financing flexibility in the current market conditions.
Holding Company Liquidity
As of September 30, 2022, we have outstanding debt obligations related to our notes payable of $150,000,000. This is exclusive of interest costs, which we estimate will total $51,563,000 over the life of the debt, based on the fixed interest rate of these notes. Our short-term obligation related to these notes includes only interest payments, totaling $9,375,000, as the notes do not mature until December 15, 2027. For more information regarding this outstanding note, please see
Note 10
.
At the holding company there are several options to satisfy this obligation over the next twelve months, including but not limited to, ordinary dividends paid to the holding company by its subsidiaries and cash and cash equivalents of $1,099,000. The shared services companies continue to receive funds from our insurance subsidiaries for management and claims adjusting services, all of which can be drawn on by the holding company for use in satisfying debt obligations. Our shared service companies cash and cash equivalent holdings total $15,377,000 as of September 30, 2022. In November ACIC declared a dividend payable to the holding company of $26,000,000. This dividend will then be contributed to UPC. Finally, we have fixed maturity and equity securities of $2,552,000, which can be liquidated, if necessary. We anticipate these sources will provide the holding company with the liquidity needed to satisfy its obligations and do not anticipate a need to liquidate securities at this time.
Insurance Subsidiaries Liquidity
As a result of claim activity from current and prior years, we have an obligation related to the unpaid policyholder losses and unpaid loss adjustment expenses associated with the settling of these claims. As of September 30, 2022, our total obligation related to these payments was $1,679,567,000, of which we estimate $898,315,000 to be short-term in nature (due in less than
63
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
twelve months), based upon our cumulative claims paid over the last 21 years. While we believe that historical performance of loss payment patterns is a reasonable source for projecting future claim payments, there is inherent uncertainty in this estimated projected settlement, and as a result these estimates will differ, perhaps significantly, from actual future payments.
In addition to our unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses, as of September 30, 2022, we have outstanding debt obligations related to our notes payable totaling $4,413,000. This is exclusive of interest costs, which we estimate will total $275,000 over the life of the debt, based on the current fixed and variable interest rates of these notes. Our short-term obligation related to these notes payable total $1,176,000 in principal payments and $124,000 in estimated interest payments. For more information regarding this outstanding note, please see

In connection with entering into contracts with our outside vendors, we have minimum obligations due to our vendors over the life of the contracts. Our main vendor obligations are related to underwriting tools, claims and policy administration systems, and software used by our information technology department in their daily operations. Our total obligation related to these three categories of obligations are $1,427,000, $3,576,000, and $5,313,000, respectively. Of these obligations, $762,000, $2,808,000, and $1,250,000, respectively are short-term in nature.
Our subsidiaries have several options to satisfy their obligations over the next twelve months, including but not limited to, an estimated $847,616,000 in reinsurance recoveries over the next twelve months and $223,247,000 in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. In November, 2022, the holding company contributed capital of $26,000,000 to UPC. We also anticipate maturities of fixed maturity securities of $53,973,000 within the next twelve months. Finally, we have $528,746,000 in fixed maturity and equity securities which can be liquidated, if necessary. While we do not anticipate the need to liquidate at this time, this liquidation would result in realized losses of approximately $66,912,000 on our fixed maturities. Absent additional capital contributions, our insurance subsidiary UPC, is projected to have insufficient liquidity. However, we anticipate these sources will provide our insurance subsidiaries ACIC and IIC with the liquidity needed to satisfy their obligations.
Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in millions)
Operating Activities
The principal cash inflows from our operating activities come from premium collections, reinsurance recoveries and investment income. The principal cash outflows from our operating activities are the result of claims and related costs, reinsurance premiums, policy acquisition costs and salaries and employee benefits. A primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of large magnitude catastrophe events.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we experienced cash outflows of $97,932,000 compared to cash outflows of $109,544,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This change can be attributed primarily to the change in our unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance recoverables on paid and unpaid losses, in 2022, which increased by $155,626,000, driven by the landfall of Hurricane Ian in the third quarter of 2022 causing large unpaid and

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
recoverable balances at September 30, 2022. This was partially offset by a $116,197,000 increase in our net loss for the nine months ended 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
Investing Activities
The principal cash inflows from our investing activities come from repayments of principal, proceeds from maturities and sales of investments. We closely monitor and manage these risks through our comprehensive investment risk management process. The principal cash outflows relate to sales of investments. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are the risk of default by debtors and market disruption. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net sales of investments totaled $99,702,000 compared to net sales of investments of $41,842,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Financing Activities
The principal cash outflows from our financing activities come from repayments of debt and payments of dividends. The primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is market disruption in the cost and availability of credit. We believe our current capital resources, together with cash provided from our operations, are sufficient to meet currently anticipated working capital requirements. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in financing activities totaled $25,071,000 compared to $8,921,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in outflow in 2022 can be attributed to the return of capital to Kiln of $18,335,000 as a result of the stock re-purchase agreement and termination agreements effective June 30, 2022. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2022 we repaid our Truist note in full, resulting in a $3,004,000 increase in repayments for the year. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in dividend payments in 2022 of $5,l73,000 since no dividend was declared in the second or third quarter of 2022.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
At September 30, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or material changes to our contractual obligations during the quarter.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks, including interest rate risk related to changes in interest rates in our fixed-maturity securities, credit risk related to changes in the financial condition of the issuers of our fixed-maturities and equity price risk related to changes in equity security prices.
