Navigators Reports Third Quarter 2018 Earnings

Stamford, CT – November 7, 2018 -- The Navigators Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:NAVG) reported Net Income of $4.6 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to a Net Loss of $(28.0) million, or $(0.95) per diluted share, for the same period in 2017. Net Operating Earnings (Loss)1 were $4.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $(29.6) million, or $(1.00) per diluted share, for the same period in 2017.

Gross Written Premiums and Net Written Premiums for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $455.9 million and $352.4 million, respectively, increasing 13.4% and 19.1%, respectively, from the comparable period in 2017. The Combined Ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was 105.3%, compared to 121.9% for the same period in 2017.

The current quarter included Net Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses of $11.8 million, net of reinsurance reinstatement premiums, from Typhoon Jebi and Hurricane Florence, as well as prior accident year reserve strengthening of $16.5 million primarily within our Primary Casualty division of our U.S. Insurance reporting segment. This compares with the same quarter in 2017 which included Net Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses of $75.1 million, net of reinsurance reinstatement premiums, from Hurricanes Maria, Irma and Harvey and the Puebla, Mexico Earthquake, as well as prior accident year reserve strengthening of $29.5 million primarily within our U.S. and International Insurance reporting segments.

Net Investment Income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $25.7 million, an increase of 13.5% as compared to the same period in 2017. The annualized pre-tax investment yield, excluding Total Net Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses recognized in the Results of Operations, was 2.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to 2.7% for the same period in 2017.

The Company recognized $2.6 million of Total Net Realized and Unrealized Gains within the Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 2017. The Net Realized and Unrealized Gains within the Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 included $2.3 million of Net Unrealized Gains on Equity Securities.

Other Income (Loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $1.7 million, compared to $(1.7) million for the same period in 2017. Other Income (Loss) primarily consists of managing agent fee income and realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses.

The effective tax rate was (11.1%) for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which compares to 37.6% for the same period in 2017, with the decrease being primarily driven by low pretax earnings resulting from an underwriting loss during the third quarter of 2018 and a consistent level of permanent tax adjustments, which generated a tax benefit for the quarter. This compares to the third quarter of 2017 which incurred large catastrophe losses driving a pretax loss resulting in a tax benefit.

Stan Galanski, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report continued strong revenue growth in the third quarter, with each of our three reporting segments producing positive premium growth. We benefited from modest rate increases across the majority of our specialty product lines. The ongoing strength of the U.S. economy, and particularly the construction segment, also benefited us, providing a strong growth of new business. In a quarter in which the insurance industry experienced significant natural catastrophe activity, our natural catastrophe loss estimates were well within our expectations. GlobalRe had another excellent quarter, with 9.4% growth in gross written premium and a 93.2% combined ratio. Within the U.S. Insurance segment, gross written premium grew 19.2%. Underwriting results for the U.S. Insurance segment were adversely impacted by a strengthening of

reserves for a portfolio of primary casualty policies on habitational risks that is largely now in runoff. Absent that action, the U.S. Insurance business would have been profitable, with continued solid performance in our primary construction liability, excess casualty, environmental, life sciences, marine and management and professional liability products. The International Insurance segment showed improved results over third quarter 2017 and for the first nine months and our team is focused on actions required to improve both the loss ratio and cost structure. Our investment portfolio continued to perform well, with net investment income up 13.5% for the quarter and 11.5% for the first nine months of 2018.

On August 22, 2018, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (NYSE: HIG) in an all-cash transaction that values Navigators at approximately $2.1 billion. Holders of the Company’s common shares will be entitled to receive consideration of $70.00 in cash per common share. The Merger is expected to close in the first half of 2019, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 the Company reported Net Income of $67.6 million, or $2.24 per diluted share compared to $13.6 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the same period in 2017. Net Operating Earnings1 were $64.7 million, or $2.15 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $10.5 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the same period in 2017.

Gross Written Premiums and Net Written Premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $1.4 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, increasing 11.0% and 16.4%, respectively, from the comparable period in 2017. The Combined Ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 98.6%, compared to 105.5% for the same period in 2017.

Net Investment Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $74.0 million, an increase of 11.5% as compared to the same period in 2017. The annualized pre-tax investment yield, excluding Total Net Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses recognized in the Results of Operations, was 2.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to 2.7% for the same period in 2017.

The Company recognized $3.7 million of Total Net Realized and Unrealized Gains within the Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2017. The Net Realized and Unrealized Gains within the Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included $0.5 million of Net Unrealized Gains on Equity Securities.

Other Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $4.2 million, compared to $(1.0) million for the same period in 2017. Other Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included revenue from the sale of renewal rights for the Company’s fixed-premium protection and indemnity (“P&I”) business as well as net realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and managing agent fee income. Other Income for the same period in 2017 primarily consisted of net realized and unrealized foreign exchange losses.

The effective tax rate was 16.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which compares to (19.7%) for the same period in 2017. The tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was the result of a lower level of pretax earnings driven by catastrophe losses incurred during 2017 and a consistent level of permanent tax adjustments.

The Company’s investment portfolio mainly consists of fixed income securities with an average quality rating of “AA-/Aa3” as defined by S&P and Moody’s, respectively, with an effective duration of 3.4 years as of September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, Net Unrealized Losses within the Available-For-Sale investment portfolio recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income were $38.4 million, a change of $79.8 million, compared to Net Unrealized Gains of $41.5 million as of December 31, 2017. Included in this change was the reclassification of $11.8 million of net unrealized gains, before tax, from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to Retained Earnings as a result of adopting ASU 2016-01.

Stockholders’ Equity was $1.2 billion, or $41.38 per share, as of September 30, 2018 compared to $41.49 per share, as of June 30, 2018, and $41.55 per share, as of December 31, 2017.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share of Common Stock.

On November 7, 2018 our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on our Company’s Common Stock of $0.07 per share, payable on December 21, 2018 to stockholders of record on November 30, 2018.

THE NAVIGATORS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME (LOSS) TO NET OPERATING EARNINGS (LOSS)

(Unaudited)

In this release, we present Net Operating Earnings (Loss), which is a “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined in Regulation G.

Net Operating Earnings (Loss) is comprised of Net Income (Loss) excluding After-Tax adjustments, including: Total Net Realized and Unrealized Gains (Losses), Foreign Exchange Gains (Losses), the Net Gain on Disposition of Product Line, and Merger Transaction Costs recognized in the Results of Operations.

We believe this presentation enhances the understanding of the results of operations by highlighting the underlying profitability of the business and enables investors and other users of the financial information to analyze underlying business performance in a manner similar to management. We also believe this measure follows industry practice and, therefore facilitates comparison of our performance with our peer group.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) (the nearest GAAP financial measure) to Net Operating Earnings (Loss):
