Produced premium is a non-GAAP measurement that management uses to track total controlled premium produced by Hallmark’s operations. Hallmark believes this is a useful tool for users of its financial statements to measure premium production whether retained by Hallmark’s insurance company subsidiaries or assumed by third party insurance carriers who pay it commission revenue. Produced premium excludes unaffiliated third party premium fronted by its Hallmark County Mutual Insurance Company and Hallmark National Insurance Company subsidiaries.

The net loss ratio is calculated as incurred losses and LAE divided by net premiums earned, each determined in accordance with GAAP. The net expense ratio is calculated for the business units that retain 100% of produced premium as total operating expenses for the unit offset by agency fee income divided by net premiums earned, each determined in accordance with GAAP. For the business units that do not retain 100% of the produced premium, the net expense ratio is calculated as underwriting expenses of the insurance company subsidiaries for the unit offset by agency fee income, divided by net premiums earned, each determined in accordance with GAAP. The net combined ratio is calculated as the sum of the net loss ratio and the net expense ratio.
