Oxbridge Re Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: OXBR), (the “Company”), a provider of reinsurance solutions primarily to property and casualty insurers, reported its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

“Our stable performance continued in the second quarter of 2023 with, again, no losses incurred,” commented Oxbridge Re Holdings Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jay Madhu.

“During the second quarter we were pleased to complete the private placement of approximately $2.4 million in securitized tokens by our new Web3-focused subsidiary SurancePlus Inc., an alternative investment opportunity leveraging key qualities of blockchain technology to create a well-designed digital security,” Mr. Madhu continued. “Assuming there are no losses underwritten by our reinsurance contracts, investors in the securitized tokens are expected to generate a potential annual return of an estimated 42%.” (See SurancePlus Offering below.)

“SurancePlus is now a brand-new, well-capitalized business and growth opportunity for our shareholders, created without any new debt and no equity dilution. We are very proud of this accomplishment and look for this exciting new entity to diversify and accelerate our growth prospects in the years ahead.”

“We were also pleased that, subsequent to the second quarter, Oxbridge Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: OXAC), the special purpose acquisition company in which we have a significant investment, completed its business combination agreement with Jet.AI Inc., a software and aviation company. The company develops software leveraging artificial intelligence and offers fractional aircraft ownership, jet card, aircraft brokerage and charter through its fleet of private aircraft and those of its operating partner. The software segment of the company features the B2C CharterGPT app and the B2B Jet.AI Operator platform. The CharterGPT app uses natural language processing and machine learning to improve the private jet booking experience. The Jet.AI operator platform offers a suite of stand-alone software products to enable FAA Part 135 charter providers to add revenue, maximize efficiency and reduce carbon footprint. The Aviation segment features jet aircraft fractions, jet cards, on-fleet charter, management, and buyer’s brokerage.’’ (See Subsequent Event below.)

“Looking ahead, with a strong balance sheet, no debt, and with our recent transactions a well-diversified business, we remain highly confident in our future ability to deliver shareholder value,” Jay Madhu concluded.

Financial Performance

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company generated a net loss of $85,000 or $(0.01) per basic and diluted common share compared to net income of $77,000 or $0.01 per basic and diluted common share in the second quarter of 2022. The loss in the quarter is due primarily to higher general and administrative expenses as a result of the recognition of all costs associated with the SurancePlus token offering completed during the quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company generated a net profit of $57,000 or $0.01 per basic and diluted common share compared to a net loss of $310,000 or $(0.05) basic and diluted common share for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The improved results were primarily due to higher revenues driven by the increase in unrealized gains on other investment and equity securities.

Net premiums earned for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $183,000 compared to $194,000 in the same prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 net premiums earned were $183,000 compared to $404,000 in the prior year. The decrease was due to reinsurance contracts in force during the period ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior year.

There were no losses incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

Total expenses were $697,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $410,000 for the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 total expenses were $1.1 million compared to $772,000 in the prior year. The increase was due to higher general and administrative expenses resulting from inflationary expense fluctuations compared to the prior year, as well as the recognition during the second quarter of 2023 of all the one-time offering costs associated with the completion of the SurancePlus token offering.

At June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and cash equivalents were $3.5 million compared to $3.9 million at December 31, 2022.

Financial Ratios

Loss Ratio. The loss ratio, which measures underwriting profitability, is the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred to net premiums earned. The loss ratio was 0% for the period ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 due to no loss or loss adjustment expenses in either period.
