Exhibit 99.4

 

MAX RE CAPITAL LTD. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER NET INCOME OF $0.26 PER DILUTED SHARE:

 

Hamilton, Bermuda, August 2, 2004 - Max Re Capital Ltd. (NASDAQ: MXRE) today reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 of $12.6 million, or net income of $0.26 per diluted share, compared to net income of $30.8 million, or net income of $0.81 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net operating income before minority interest, which represents net income before minority interest reduced / increased by net realized gains / (losses) on sale of fixed maturities, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $15.2 million, or net operating income of $0.32 per diluted share, compared with net operating income before minority interest of $36.0 million, or net operating income of $0.79 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had net income of $55.6 million, or net income of $1.13 per diluted share, compared to $45.4 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had net operating income before minority interest of $52.4 million, or net operating income of $1.07 per diluted share, compared to $50.7 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

 

Robert J. Cooney, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “For the second quarter Max Re showed continued improvement in its combined ratio, strong premium growth in our traditional insurance business and modest premium growth overall. This allowed us to produce reasonable earnings, despite a difficult investment quarter where our alternative investment portfolio posted an unusually small return.”

 

Gross premiums written for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $183.7 million, coming principally from property and casualty underwriting, with only $2.2 million of life and annuity premiums, compared to $165.8 million, all from property and casualty underwriting, for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net premiums earned for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 20% to $171.8 million compared to $143.3 million for the same period of 2003. Gross premiums written for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $623.2 million compared to $596.3 million for the first six months of 2003. Net premiums earned for the first six months of 2004 increased 29% to $370.7 million compared to $287.0 million for the same period in 2003. Alternative risk transfer, traditional reinsurance and traditional insurance products accounted for 42%, 39% and 18%, respectively, of gross premiums written for the first six months of 2004.

 

Net investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2004, increased to $19.7 million, from $15.1 million for the same period in 2003 and is principally attributable to increased holdings of cash and fixed maturities during the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $8.9 million, to $38.5 million, compared to $29.6 million for the same period in 2003. Net gains on alternative investments for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $1.0 million, or a 0.10% rate of return, compared to net gains on alternative investments of $45.2 million, or a 5.84% rate of return, for the same period of 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, alternative investments have returned 4.17%, compared to 9.12% for the same period in 2003. Invested assets were $2.9 billion as of June 30, 2004, with an allocation of approximately 65.5% to cash and fixed maturities and 34.5% to alternative investments.

 

Losses, benefits and experience refunds were $135.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $114.4 million for the same period in 2003. The increase in losses, benefits and experience refunds for the three months ended June 30, 2004 is principally attributable to the increase in premiums earned. There were no significant adjustments to loss, benefit and experience refund reserves during the three months ended June 30, 2004. Losses, benefits and experience refunds for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $301.7 million compared to $228.8 million for the same period in 2003. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was also principally attributable to the increase in premiums earned.

 

Acquisition costs for the three months ended June 30, 2004 decreased by 18% to $29.2 million compared to $35.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The reduction is attributable to the change in product mix, with traditional reinsurance and traditional insurance products having lower acquisition costs compared to alternative risk transfer products.

 

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2004 decreased 99% from the same period in 2003. The decrease is principally attributable to a lower average interest crediting rate on the funds withheld balances with reinsurers during the three months ended June 30, 2004.


General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $13.9 million compared to $10.8 million for the same period in 2003. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $24.1 million, or 6.5% of net premiums earned, compared to $19.0 million, or 6.6% of net premiums earned for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

 

Shareholders’ equity was $826.1 million at June 30, 2004. Book value per share at June 30, 2004 was $18.06 per share, compared to $17.82 at December 31, 2003 impacted by the decline in value of fixed maturities during the first six months of 2004. Return on average shareholders’ equity for the trailing 12 month period was 14.2%.

 

Max Re Capital Ltd., through its principal operating subsidiaries, Max Re Ltd., Max Insurance Europe Limited and Max Re Europe Limited, offers customized insurance and reinsurance solutions to property and casualty insurers, life and health insurers and large corporations.
