PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Forward-Looking Statements

Except for the historical information included and incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the information included and incorporated by reference herein are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not statements of historical fact. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future events, including, among other things, discussion and analysis of our future financial condition, results of operations and our strategic plans and objectives. When we use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “seek,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” or similar expressions, we intend to identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
The factors described herein are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements.  Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect our forward-looking statements. Consequently, our actual performance could be materially different from the results described or anticipated by our forward-looking statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by the applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

(1) Organization

Tiptree Financial Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively, Tiptree or the Company, or we) is a Maryland Corporation that was incorporated on March 19, 2007. Tiptree is a diversified holding company with five reporting segments: insurance and insurance services, specialty finance, real estate, asset management, and corporate and other. Tiptree’s Class A Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “TIPT”. Tiptree’s primary asset is its ownership of Tiptree Financial Partners, L.P. (TFP). Tiptree reports a non-controlling interest representing the economic interest in TFP held by other limited partners of TFP.

As of December 31, 2015, Tiptree owned, directly or indirectly, approximately 81% of the assets of Tiptree Operating Company, LLC (Operating Company) with the remaining 19% held by non-controlling shareholders through their interests in TFP. Effective January 1, 2016, Tiptree, TFP and Operating Company created a consolidated group among themselves and various Operating Company subsidiaries for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with Tiptree being the parent company. In connection with the creation of the consolidated group, TFP and the Operating Company elected to be treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and Tiptree contributed its interest in Operating Company to TFP in exchange for additional common units of TFP. As a result of these steps, as of January 1, 2016, Tiptree directly owns approximately 81% of TFP and TFP directly owns 100% of Operating Company. There was no change to the relative economic position of the parties to the transactions as a result of this reorganization. See Note—(22) Income Taxes.
All of Tiptree’s Class B common stock is owned by TFP and is accounted for as treasury stock. Tiptree’s Class B common stock has voting but no economic rights. The limited partners of TFP (other than Tiptree itself) have the ability to exchange TFP partnership units for Tiptree Class A common stock at a rate of 2.798 shares of Class A common stock per partnership unit. For every Class A common stock exchanged in this manner, a share of Class B common stock is canceled. The percentage of TFP (and therefore Operating Company) owned by Tiptree may increase in the future to the extent TFP’s limited partners choose to exchange their limited partnership units of TFP for Class A common stock of Tiptree. Changes in Tiptree’s ownership of TFP will be accounted for as equity transactions, which increase Tiptree’s ownership of TFP and reduce non-controlling interest in TFP without changing total stockholders’ equity of Tiptree.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Tiptree have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the main operating currency of the Company. The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial information reflects all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending on December 31, 2016.

Tiptree consolidates those entities in which it has an investment of 50% or more of voting rights or has control over significant operating, financial and investing decisions of the entity as well as those entities deemed to be variable interest entities (VIEs) in which Tiptree is determined to be the primary beneficiary. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties.

A VIE is required to be consolidated only by its primary beneficiary, which is defined as the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and who has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Generally, Tiptree’s consolidated VIEs are entities which Tiptree is considered the primary beneficiary through its controlling financial interests.

Non-controlling interests on the Consolidated Statements of Operations represent the ownership interests in certain consolidated subsidiaries held by entities or persons other than Tiptree. Accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2016
(in thousands, except share data)


The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015 have been revised for immaterial corrections and errors related to the presentation of our activities from Discontinued Operations and business acquisitions. These corrections resulted in an increase in cash provided by investing activities of approximately $3,000, a decrease in cash provided by financing activities of approximately $3,000, and an adjustment of approximately $28,400 to reflect cash of a disposed business and investing activities. Such changes had no impact on the ending cash balance as of June 30, 2015. In addition, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

See “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” for actions the Company is taking to remediate certain material weaknesses as of June 30, 2016, and to enhance its control infrastructure as a result.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management makes estimates and assumptions that include but are not limited to the determination of the following significant items:

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, securities, loans and derivatives
Value of acquired assets and liabilities
Carrying value of goodwill and other intangibles, including estimated amortization period and useful lives
Reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, estimated future claims and losses, potential litigation and other claims
Valuation of contingent share issuances for compensation and purchase consideration, including estimates of number of shares and vesting schedules
Revenue recognition including, but not limited to, the timing and amount of insurance premiums, service, administration fees, and loan origination fees and
Other matters that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of contingencies in the consolidated financial statements

Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available estimates, actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

Business Combination Accounting

The Company accounts for business combinations by applying the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be measured at fair value as of the closing date of the acquisition. The net assets acquired may consist of tangible and intangible assets and the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, or goodwill. The determination of estimated useful lives and the allocation of the purchase price to the intangible assets requires significant judgment and affects the amount of future amortization and possible impairment charges. Contingent consideration, if any, is measured at fair value on the date of acquisition. The fair value of any contingent consideration liability is remeasured at each reporting date with any change recorded in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Acquisition and transaction costs are related primarily to completed and potential business combinations and include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation and other professional or consulting fees which are expensed as incurred.

In certain instances, the Company may acquire less than 100% ownership of an entity, resulting in the recording of a non-controlling interest. The measurement of assets and liabilities acquired and non-controlling interest is initially established at a preliminary estimate of fair value, which may be adjusted during the measurement period based upon the results of a valuation study applicable to the business combination.

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 valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels, from highest to lowest, are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Significant inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. The types of financial assets and liabilities carried at level 2 are valued based on one or more of the following:

a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in nonactive markets;
c) Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
d) Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Significant inputs that are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, including the Company’s own data and assumptions that are used in pricing the asset or liability.

Fair Value Option

In addition to the financial instruments the Company is required to value at fair value, the Company has elected to make an irrevocable election of fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain eligible financial assets and liabilities. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The decision to elect the fair value option is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis and must be applied to an entire instrument and is irrevocable once elected. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value pursuant to this guidance are reported separately in our Consolidated Balance Sheets from those instruments using another accounting method.

Recent Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. These amendments change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. In addition, ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information. ASU 2014-08 is effective for the first quarter of 2015 for the Company. The effects of applying the revised guidance will vary based upon the nature and size of future disposal transactions. It is expected that fewer disposal transactions will meet the new criteria to be reported as discontinued operations. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments when the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period shall be treated as a performance condition. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations or cash flows.


F-10



TIPTREE FINANCIAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2016
(in thousands, except share data)

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. The pronouncement eliminates the concept of extraordinary items from GAAP. However, the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently will be retained and will be expanded to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability and consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 requires retrospective adoption and was effective for the Company on January 1, 2016. Accordingly “Debt, net” is reported net of deferred financing costs as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note—(16) Debt, net.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles -Goodwill and Other -Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) which will help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software.  The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), which eliminates the requirement for entities to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments for which fair values are measured at net asset value (NAV) per share (FASB ASC Subtopic 820-10). ASU 2015-07 also removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for all investments that are eligible to be measured at fair value using the NAV per share practical expedient, instead limiting disclosures to investments for which the entity has elected the expedient. ASU 2015-07 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2016 and retrospective adoption is required. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Improvements, which covers a wide range of Topics in the Codification. The amendments in ASU 2015-10 represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost on most entities. Amendments with transition guidance were effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. All other amendments are effective upon the ASU’s issuance (June 12, 2015). The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations or cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this standard affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods and services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This standard was originally effective for the Company on January 1, 2017.

On July 9, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. Reporting entities may choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date. The deferral results in ASU 2014-09 being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently reviewing ASU 2014-09 and is assessing the potential effects on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-09, Financial Services—Insurance (Topic 944): Disclosures about Short-Duration Contracts, which expands the disclosure requirements for insurance companies that issue short-duration contracts (typically one year or less) to provide users with additional disclosures about the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses and to increase the transparency of the significant estimates management makes in measuring those liabilities. In addition, the disclosures will serve to increase insight into an insurance entity’s ability to underwrite and anticipate costs associated with claims as well as provide users of the financial statements a better understanding of the amount and uncertainty of cash flows arising from insurance liabilities, the nature and extent of risks on short-duration contracts and the timing of cash flows arising

from insurance liabilities. ASU 2015-09 will be effective for the Company for the annual period beginning after December 15, 2015, and for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its 2016 annual financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01), which makes targeted improvements to the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of certain financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 focuses primarily on the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for certain financial instruments. Among its provisions for public business entities, ASU 2016-01 eliminates the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost, requires the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires the separate presentation in other comprehensive income of the change in fair value of a liability due to instrument-specific credit risk for a liability for which the reporting entity has elected the fair value option, requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) and clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for a limited number of provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the effect on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous leases standard, Leases (Topic 840). The standard is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position or results of operations.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under Topic 815, does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments -Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323) which eliminates the requirement in Topic 323 that an entity retroactively adopt the equity method of accounting if an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership or degree of influence. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) which clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus net considerations. The effective date and transition requirements for this standard are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Some of the areas for simplification apply only to nonpublic entities. In addition, the amendments in this Update eliminate the guidance in Topic 718 that was indefinitely deferred shortly after the issuance of FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing which clarifies guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance contained in the new revenue recognition standard. The Update includes targeted improvements based on input the Board received from the Transition Resource Group for Revenue Recognition and other stakeholders. The Update seeks to proactively address areas in which diversity in practice potentially could arise, as well as to reduce the cost and complexity of applying certain aspects of the guidance both at implementation and on an ongoing basis. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting which  rescinds SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Announcement, “Rescission of Certain SEC Staff Observer Comments upon Adoption of Topic 606,” and the SEC Staff Announcement, “Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or Equity,” announced at the March 3, 2016 Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meeting.  The Company believes that that the adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients which provides guidance on collectability, noncash consideration, and completed contracts at transition.  Additionally, the amendments in this Update provide a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition and an accounting policy election related to the presentation of sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from customers.  The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by Update 2014-09). The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments -Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. This Update affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The Company is currently evaluating the effect upon its financial statements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, Care and affiliates of Care’s partners entered into agreements to acquire and operate two senior housing communities for total consideration of $55,074 (which includes deposits of $125 paid in the fourth quarter of 2015) of which $39,217 was financed through mortgage debt issued in connection with the acquisitions, $3,885 was financed by contributions from the affiliates of Care’s partners, and the remainder was paid with cash on hand. Affiliates of Care’s partners provide management services to the communities under management contracts.

The primary reason for the Company’s acquisition of the senior housing communities is to expand its real estate operations. For the period from acquisition until June 30, 2016, revenue and the net loss in the aggregate for the two managed properties acquired were $3,973 and $1,421, respectively.

On June 30, 2016, the Company finalized the determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded in the prior quarter was an increase of $540 to Real estate, net with an offsetting decrease of $540 to Intangible assets, net related to in-place leases. Additionally, the change to the provisional amounts resulted in a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $213, of which $80 relates to the previous quarter, recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2016.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid and the amounts of the final determination, as described above, of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed for the acquisitions completed during the six months ended June 30, 2016:

The Company does not intend to sell the investments that were in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2016, and management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to hold these securities until full recovery of their amortized cost basis for fixed maturity securities or cost for equity securities. The unrealized losses were attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit-related issues. As of June 30, 2016, based on the Company's review, none of the fixed maturity or equity securities were deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired based on the Company's analysis of the securities and its intent to hold the securities until recovery. There have been no other-than-temporary impairments recorded by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

The amortized cost and fair values of investments in debt securities, by contractual maturity date, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Excluded from this table are equity securities since they have no contractual maturity.

Non-performing Residential Loans

As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s investments included $56,137 of loans collateralized by real estate in the process of foreclosure of which the unpaid principal balance was $86,426.  The difference between the fair value of the NPLs and the unpaid principal balance was $(30,289).

When NPLs are converted into foreclosed residential real estate property (when we have obtained title to the property) or other resolution process (e.g., through a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction), the fair value of these assets at the time of transfer are estimated using BPOs, and if the property meets held-of-sale criteria, it is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell as its cost basis. Subsequently, the property is carried at (i) the fair value of the asset minus the estimated costs to sell the asset or (ii) the cost of the asset, whichever is lower. Included in other assets are $7,207 of foreclosed residential real estate property.

Loans Owned at amortized cost, net

Asset backed loans
As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company held $74,862 and $51,831 of such loans receivable, net, all of which are attributable to Siena. Siena structures asset-based loan facilities in the $1,000 to $25,000 range across diversified industries, which include manufacturing distribution, wholesale, and service companies. Collateral for asset-backed loan receivables, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, consisted of inventory, equipment and accounts receivable. Management reviews collateral for these loans on at least a monthly basis or more frequently if a draw is requested and Management has determined that no impairment existed as of June 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2016, there were no delinquencies in the Siena portfolio and all loans were classified as performing.
(8) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible to measure a financial instrument’s fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are affected by the type of product, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, as well as current market conditions. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Fair value is estimated by applying the hierarchy discussed in Note 2, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s fair value measurement is based on a market approach, which utilizes prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable financial instruments. Sources of inputs to the market approach include third-party pricing services, independent broker quotations and pricing matrices. Management analyzes the third party valuation methodologies and its related inputs to perform assessments to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy and to assess reliability of values. Further, management has a process in place to review all changes in fair value that occurred during each measurement period. Any discrepancies or unusual observations are followed through to resolution through the source of the pricing as well as utilizing comparisons, if applicable, to alternate pricing sources.

The Company utilizes observable and unobservable inputs within its valuation methodologies. Observable inputs may include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. In addition, specific issuer information and other market data is used. Broker quotes are obtained from sources recognized to be market participants. Unobservable inputs may include: expected cash flow streams, default rates, supply and demand considerations and market volatility.

Available for Sale Securities

Available for sale securities are generally classified within either Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are based on prices provided by an independent pricing service and a third party investment manager who provide a single price or quote per security.

The following details the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of available for sale securities and the applicable level each security falls within the fair value hierarchy:

U.S Treasury Securities, Obligations of U.S. Government Authorities and Agencies, Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions, Corporate Securities, Asset-Backed Securities, and Obligations of Foreign Governments: Fair values were obtained from an independent pricing service and a third party investment manager. The prices provided by the independent pricing service are based on quoted market prices, when available, non-binding broker quotes, or matrix pricing and fall under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Certificates of Deposit: The estimated fair value of certificates of deposit approximate carrying value and fall under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities: The fair values of publicly traded common and preferred stocks were obtained from market value quotations provided by an independent pricing service and fall under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of non-publicly traded common and preferred stocks were based on prices obtained from an independent pricing service using unobservable inputs and fall under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities: Derivatives are comprised of credit default swaps (CDS), index credit default swaps (CDX), interest rate lock commitments (IRLC), to be announced mortgage backed securities (TBA) and interest rate swaps (IRS). The fair value of these instruments is based upon valuation pricing models, which represent the amount the Company would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date to exit the position. In general, the fair value of CDSs and CDXs are based on dealer quotes. Because significant inputs, other than unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are used to determine the dealer quotes, such as price volatility, the Company classifies them as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of IRS is based upon either valuation pricing models, which represent the amount the Company would expect to pay at the balance sheet date if the contracts were exited, or by obtaining broker or counterparty quotes. Because there are observable inputs used to arrive at these prices, the Company has classified IRS within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries issue IRLCs to its customers, which are carried at estimated fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The estimated fair values of these commitments are generally calculated by reference to the value of the underlying loan associated with the IRLC net of costs to produce and an expected fall out assumption. The fair values of these commitments generally result in a Level 3 classification. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries manage their exposure by entering into best efforts delivery commitments with loan investors referred to as “best efforts lock”. For loans not locked with investors on a best efforts basis, the Company enters into hedge instruments, primarily TBAs, to protect against movements in interest rates. The fair values of TBA mortgage backed securities generally result in a Level 2 classification.

The Company uses certain of its IRS as part of its risk management strategy to manage interest rate risk and cash flow risk that may arise in connection with the variable interest rate provision of the Company's preferred trust securities. These derivatives are classified as cash flow hedges.

Trading Assets and Liabilities: Trading assets and liabilities consist primarily of privately held equity securities, exchange-traded equity securities, CLOs, collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), derivative assets and liabilities, tax exempt securities, and U.S. Treasury short positions. The fair value of privately held equity securities are based on quotes obtained from dealers or internally developed valuation models. Because significant inputs used to determine the dealer quotes or model values are not observable, such as projected future earnings and price volatility, the Company has classified them within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s U.S. Treasury short position is priced through dealer indicative quotes and as such is classified as Level 2.

Positions in securitized products such as CLOs and CDOs are based on quotes obtained from dealers and valuation models. When these quotes are based directly or indirectly on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets exchanged in an active or inactive market, the Company has classified them within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. If these quotes are based on valuation models using unobservable inputs such as expected future cash flows, default rates, supply and demand considerations, and market volatility, the Company has classified them within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of tax exempt securities is determined by obtaining quotes from independent pricing services. In most cases, quotes are obtained from two pricing services and the average of both quotes is used. The independent pricing services determine their quotes using observable inputs such as current interest rates, specific issuer information and other market data for such securities. Therefore, the estimate of fair value is subject to a high degree of variability based upon market conditions, the availability of issuer information and the assumptions made. The valuation inputs used to arrive at fair value for such debt obligations are generally classified within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Nonperforming loans and REO: The Company determines the purchase price for NPLs at the time of acquisition and for each subsequent valuation by using a discounted cash flow valuation model and considering alternate loan resolution probabilities, including modification, liquidation, or conversion to REO. Observable inputs to the model include loan amounts, payment history, and property types. Our NPLs are on nonaccrual status at the time of purchase as it is probable that principal or interest is not fully collectible. NPLs are included in loans, at fair value.

NPLs converted to REOs were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2016 (the Company did not have investments in REO status in prior year period). The carrying value of REOs at June 30, 2016 was $7,207. Upon conversion to REO, the fair value is estimated using broker price opinion (BPO). BPOs are subject to judgments of a particular broker formed by visiting a property, assessing general home values in an area, reviewing comparable listings, and reviewing comparable completed sales. These judgments may vary among brokers and may fluctuate over time based on housing market activities and the influx of additional comparable listings and sales. REO is included in Other Assets.

Financial assets classified as Level 3 and fair valued using significant unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 have not been provided as these are not readily available to the Company (including servicing release premium for interest rate lock commitments and forward delivery contracts).
(2)
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of our NPLs are discount rates, loan resolution timeline, and the value of underlying properties. Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation could result in a significant change to the fair value measurement. A decline in the discount rate in isolation would increase the fair value. A decrease in the housing pricing index in isolation would decrease the fair value. Individual loan characteristics, such as location and value of underlying collateral, affect the loan resolution timeline. An increase in the loan resolution timeline in isolation would decrease the fair value. A decrease in the value of underlying properties in isolation would decrease the fair value.

The following table sets forth quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used to measure the fair value of our NPLs as of the following periods:

Notes receivable: To the extent that carrying amounts differ from fair value, fair value is determined based on contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for similar credits. Categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Debt: The fair value of notes payable is determined based on contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for mortgage notes payable and either dealer quotes or contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for other notes payable. Categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Additionally, the following financial assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are not carried at fair value, but whose carrying amounts approximate their fair value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Due from Brokers, Dealers, and Trustees and Due to Brokers, Dealers and Trustees: The carrying amounts are included in other assets and other liabilities and accrued expenses an approximate their fair value due to their short‑term nature. Categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Accounts and premiums receivable, net, and other receivables: The carrying amounts approximate fair value since no interest rate is charged on these short duration assets. Categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Loans Owned, at Amortized Cost: The fair value of loans owned, at amortized cost approximates its carrying value because the interest rates on the loans are based on a variable market interest rate. Categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

At June 30, 2016, the three unrelated reinsurers from whom Fortegra has the largest receivable balances were: London Life International Reinsurance Corporation (A. M.

The related receivables of London Life International Reinsurance Corporation and MFI Insurance Company, LTD are collateralized by assets held in trust accounts and letters of credit due to their offshore relationships. At June 30, 2016, the Company does not believe there is a risk of loss due to the concentration of credit risk in the reinsurance program given the collateralization.

(14) Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging

The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments as part of its overall investment and hedging activities. Derivative contracts are subject to additional risk that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The Company’s derivative activities are primarily classified by underlying credit risk and interest rate risk. In addition, the Company is also subject to additional counterparty risk should its counterparties fail to meet the contract terms. The derivative financial instruments are located within trading assets at fair value and are reported in Other Assets. Trading liabilities are reported within Other liabilities and accrued expenses.

Derivatives, at fair value
Credit Derivatives
Credit derivatives are generally defined as over‑the‑counter contracts between a buyer and seller of protection against the risk of default on a set of obligations issued by a specified reference entity.
Credit Default Swap Indices (CDX) are credit derivatives that reference multiple names through underlying baskets or portfolios of single name credit default swaps. The Company enters into these contracts as both a buyer of protection and seller of protection to manage the credit risk exposure of its investment portfolio. The Company is required to deposit cash collateral for these positions equal to an initial 2.25% of the notional amount of the sold protection side, subject to increase based on additional maintenance margin as a result of decreases in value. As of June 30, 2016, the total margin was $6,750.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

Foreign currency forward contracts are used as a foreign currency hedge where the Company has an obligation to either make or take a foreign currency payment at a future date. If the date of the foreign currency payment and the last trading date of the foreign currency forwards contract are matched, the Company has in effect “locked in” the exchange rate payment amount. The Company, through its subsidiary Siena, has entered into a foreign exchange forward contract hedge on its foreign loans receivable.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs) in connection with its mortgage banking activities to fund residential mortgage loans with certain terms at specified times in the future. IRLCs that relate to the origination of mortgage loans that will be classified as held-for-sale are considered derivative instruments under applicable accounting guidance. As such, these IRLCs are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value typically resulting in recognition of a gain when the Company enters into IRLCs. In estimating the fair value of an IRLC, the Company assigns a probability that the loan commitment will be exercised and the loan will be funded. The fair value of the commitments is derived from the fair value of related mortgage loans, net of estimated costs to complete. Outstanding IRLCs expose the Company to the risk that the price of the loans underlying the commitments might decline from inception of the rate lock to funding of the loan. To manage this risk, the Company utilizes forward delivery contracts and TBA mortgage backed securities to economically hedge the risk of potential changes in the value of the loans that would result from the commitments.

Forward Delivery Contracts
   
The Company enters into forward delivery contracts with investors to manage the interest rate risk associated with IRLCs and loans held for sale.

TBA Mortgage Backed Securities
  
The Company enters into to be announced (TBA) mortgage backed securities which facilitate hedging and funding by allowing the Company to prearrange prices for mortgages that are in the process of originating. The Company utilizes these hedging instruments for Agency (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) and FHA/VA (Ginnie Mae) eligible IRLCs and typically commit them to investors at prices higher than otherwise available.

Interest Rate Swaps
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk when there is an unfavorable change in the value of investments as a result of adverse movements in the market interest rates. The Company enters into interest rate swaps (IRS) to protect against such adverse movements in interest rates. The Company is required to post collateral for the benefit of the counterparty. This is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Company is party to interest rate swaps in order to economically hedge interest rate risk associated with the financing of its real estate portfolio. All of these swaps have the same counterparty.

Derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments

Fortegra has one IRS with a counterparty, pursuant to which Fortegra swapped the floating rate portion of its outstanding preferred trust securities to a fixed rate. This IRS is designated as a cash flow hedge and expires in June 2017. As of the December 4, 2014 acquisition date, the IRS was considered a new hedging relationship, and was redesignated as a hedge.

Care has seven IRS with the same counterparty, pursuant to which Care swapped the floating rate portion of its outstanding debt to a fixed rate. These IRS are designated as cash flow hedges and expire between November 30, 2017 and January 31, 2023. As of May 10, 2016, these IRS were considered new hedging relationships, and have been redesignated as hedges.

(15) Assets and Liabilities of Consolidated CLOs

The term CLO generally refers to a special purpose vehicle that owns a portfolio of investments and issues various tranches of debt and subordinated note securities to finance the purchase of those investments. The investment activities of a CLO are governed by extensive investment guidelines, generally contained within a CLO’s “indenture” and other governing documents which limit, among other things, the CLO’s exposure to any single industry or obligor and provide that the CLO’s assets satisfy certain ratings requirements. Most CLOs have a defined investment period during which they are allowed to make investments and reinvest capital as it becomes available. The CLOs are considered variable interest entities (VIE).

The assets of each of the CLOs, including cash and cash equivalents, are held solely as collateral to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The Company does not own and has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the assets held by the CLOs, beyond its direct investments in, and investment advisory fees generated from, the CLOs. If the Company were to liquidate, the assets of the CLOs would not be available to its general creditors, and as a result, the Company does not consider these assets available for the benefit of its investors. Additionally, the investors in the CLOs have no recourse to the

Company’s general assets for the debt issued by the CLOs. Therefore, this debt is not the Company’s obligation. The Company consolidates entities when it is determined to be the primary beneficiary under current VIE accounting guidance.

The unpaid principal balance for these loans is $1,008,331 and $727,357 and the difference between their fair value and UPB is $48,735 and $46,573 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 respectively.

The Company’s beneficial interests and maximum exposure to loss related to the Consolidated CLOs are limited to (i) ownership in the subordinated notes and related participations in management fees of the CLOs and (ii) accrued management fees. Although these beneficial interests are eliminated upon consolidation, the application of the measurement alternative results in the net amount of the CLOs shown above to be equivalent to the beneficial interests retained by Tiptree as illustrated in the below table:

Operating Company
Secured Credit Agreement - Fortress

On September 18, 2013, Operating Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Fortress and borrowed $50,000 thereunder, with an associated original issue discount of $1,000, which is being amortized over the term of the agreement. The Credit Agreement allows Operating Company to borrow additional amounts up to a maximum aggregate of $125,000, subject to satisfaction of certain customary conditions. The obligations of Operating Company under the Credit Agreement are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of Operating Company. The principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all loans under the Credit Agreement become immediately due and payable on September 18, 2018. Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate per annum equal to one-month LIBOR with a LIBOR floor of 1.25%, plus a margin of 6.50% per annum. The weighted average rate paid for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was 7.75%. The principal amount of the loan is to be repaid in quarterly installments, the amount of which may be adjusted based on the Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at the end of each fiscal quarter.
On January 26, 2015, Tiptree entered into an Amendment to its Credit Agreement with Fortress providing for additional term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $25,000 to Tiptree. Tiptree was required to repay and did repay $25,000 of all the aggregate outstanding additional term loans under the Fortress credit agreement upon the closing of the PFG sale on June 30, 2015.

On June 24, 2016, Operating Company entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Fortress. The Fourth Amendment provides for additional term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $15,000 with the same maturity date, margin above LIBOR, principal repayment term, and conditions and covenants as the existing term loans under the Credit Agreement. The Fourth Amendment also provides that Operating Company may prepay loans under the Credit Agreement, subject to payment of a make-whole premium until the one year anniversary of the Fourth Amendment.

The Company is obligated to pay interest on a monthly basis and has incurred interest expense of $1,792 and $2,730 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The remaining amortization of the original issue discount totaled $630 and $643 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company capitalized an aggregate of approximately $1,491 of costs associated with the original transaction and the Amendments to the Credit Agreement. The Company is amortizing the costs over the life of the facility. The Company recorded approximately $127 and $302 of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to these capitalized costs.

As of June 30, 2016, Luxury believes it was in compliance or had obtained waivers of compliance with respect to such financial covenants. Luxury’s ability to borrow under the warehouse line of credit agreements is not adversely affected by any such waivers.

Although the notes accrue interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum, payments to former shareholders are subject to cash available for distribution based on the profitability of Luxury subject to stipulations governed by the note agreements.

(18) Stockholders’ Equity

On June 23, 2016, subsidiaries of Tiptree purchased 5,596,000 shares of Class A common stock of Tiptree for aggregate consideration of $36,374. The shares acquired by subsidiaries of Tiptree are held as treasury shares and therefore are not outstanding for accounting or voting purposes.

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were 34,853,996 (including the shares of Class A held by subsidiaries of Tiptree) and 34,899,833 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were 8,049,029 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding, respectively, all of which are owned by TFP. As a result of the tax reorganization on January 1, 2016, these Class B common stock are accounted for treasury stock in Tiptree’s financial statements.

TFP owns a warrant to purchase 652,500 shares of Class A common stock at $11.33 per share which is immediately exercisable and expires on September 30, 2018. Such an exercise would be accounted for as treasury stock held at TFP and would have no impact on Tiptree’s financial statements.

All shares of our Class A common stock have equal rights as to earnings, assets, dividends and voting. Shares of Class B common stock have equal voting rights but no economic rights (including no right to receive dividends or other distributions upon liquidation, dissolution or otherwise). Distributions may be paid to holders of Class A common stock if, as and when duly authorized by our board of directors and declared out of assets legally available therefor.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company declared dividends of $0.05 in the aggregate, per common share of Class A stock. In the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, dividends of $0.025 per common share of Class A stock were declared on March 15, 2016 and March 31, 2015 and paid on April 1, 2016 and April 23, 2015, respectively. In the second quarter of 2016 and 2015, dividends of $0.025 per common share of Class A stock were declared on May 10, 2016 and May 15, 2015 and paid on May 30, 2016 and June 1, 2015, respectively.

Generally, the RSUs shall vest and become nonforfeitable with respect to one-third of Tiptree shares granted on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of the grant, and expensed using the straight-line method over the requisite service period.

Includes 130,946 of immediately vested Class A common stock with a grant date fair value of approximately $750 to settle compensation accrued during the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Company values RSUs at their grant-date fair value as measured by Tiptree’s common stock price. Included in vested shares for 2016 are 646 shares surrendered to pay taxes on behalf of the employees with shares vesting. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company granted 218,310 RSUs to employees of the Company, of which 111,759 vest over a period of three years that began in January 2016, 33,624 will vest over a period of two years beginning February 2016, 55,768 will vest over a period of two years beginning April 2016 and the remainder will vest over a period of three years beginning April 2016.

Subsidiary Incentive Plans

Certain of Tiptree’s subsidiaries have established RSU programs under which they are authorized to issue RSUs or their equivalents, representing equity of such subsidiaries to certain of their employees. These RSUs are subject to performance-vesting criteria based on the performance of the subsidiary (performance vesting RSUs) and time-vesting subject to continued employment (time vesting RSUs). Following the service period, such vested RSUs may be exchanged at fair market value, at the option of the holder, for Tiptree Class A common stock under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Company has the option, but not the obligation to settle the exchange right in shares or cash.
These awards are currently considered to be liabilities based upon their expected settlement method. Changes in fair value of the awards are recognized in earnings for the relative amount of cumulative compensation cost. The Company uses the straight-line method to recognize compensation expense for the time vesting RSUs over the requisite service periods, beginning on the grant date.  The Company uses the graded-vesting method to recognize compensation expense for the performance vesting RSUs. Compensation expense will be recognized to the extent that it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.  The Company reassesses the probability of satisfaction of the performance condition for the performance vesting RSUs for each reporting period.

Stock Options

Option awards have been granted to the Executive Committee with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant; those option awards have a 10-year term and are subject the recipient’s continuous service, a market requirement, and generally vest over 5 years beginning on the 3rd anniversary of the grant date. Options granted during the quarter contained a market requirement that at any time during the option term, the 20-day volume weighted average stock price must exceed the December 31, 2015 book value per share. The market requirement may be met any time before the option expires and it only needs to be met once for the option to remain exercisable for the remainder of its term. If the market requirement is not met, but the service condition is met, the full amount of the compensation expense will be recognized over the appropriate vesting period.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula embedded within a Monte Carlo model used to simulate the future stock prices of the Company, which assumes that the market requirement is achieved. Historical volatility was computed based on historical daily returns of the Company’s stock over a lookback period equal to 2.5 years from the grant date. The valuation is done under a risk-neutral framework using the 10-year zero-coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve on the grant date. The current quarterly dividend of $0.025 was used to calculate a spot dividend yield as of the date of grant for use in the model.

ProSight Specialty Insurance Group, Inc.
On June 23, 2016, subsidiaries of Tiptree purchased 5,596,000 shares of Class A common stock of Tiptree from entities affiliated with ProSight Specialty Insurance Group, Inc. (a principal owner of the Company’s Class A common stock prior to the purchase) for aggregate consideration of $36,374. The shares acquired by subsidiaries of Tiptree will be held as treasury shares and therefore will not be outstanding for accounting or voting purposes.
(22) Income Taxes
 
 
 
 
The total income tax expense of $4,025 and benefit of $371 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, is reflected as a component of income (loss) from continuing operations. The total income tax expense of $1,586 and benefit of $1,867 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, is reflected as a component of income (loss) from continuing operations.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s effective tax rate (ETR) on income from continuing operations was equal to 36.4% which bears a customary relationship to federal and state statutory income tax rates. The ETR on income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 before the tax restructuring was 35.5%, such ETR is lower than the U.S. federal and state statutory income tax rates primarily due to non-controlling interests at certain subsidiaries, the release of valuation allowances on net operating losses at certain subsidiaries, offset by valuation allowances on net operating losses incurred by other subsidiaries and the impact of certain gains and losses treated discretely for the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s ETR on income from continuing operations after considering the impact of the tax restructuring was equal to 9.8% which does not bear a customary relationship to statutory income tax rates. The ETR for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is significantly lower than the federal and state statutory income tax rates primarily due to $4,044 of discrete tax benefits for the period, primarily related to the tax restructuring that resulted in a consolidated corporate tax group effective January 1, 2016. See Note—(1) Organization, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Minimum rental obligations for Tiptree, Care, MFCA, Siena, Luxury, Reliance and Fortegra office leases. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, rent expense for the Company’s office leases were $1,499 and $1,401, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, rent expense for the Company’s office leases were $3,190 and $2,387, respectively.

In addition, Tiptree’s subsidiary Siena issues standby letters of credit for credit enhancements that are required by its borrower’s respective businesses. As of June 30, 2016, there was $400 outstanding relating to these letters of credit.

Litigation
Tiptree’s Fortegra subsidiary is a defendant in Mullins v. Southern Financial Life Insurance Co., which was filed in February 2006, in the Pike Circuit Court, in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. A class was certified on June 25, 2010. At issue is the duration or term of coverage under certain policies. The action alleges violations of the Consumer Protection Act and certain insurance statutes, as well as common law fraud. The action seeks compensatory and punitive damages, attorney fees and interest. Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Sanctions on April 5, 2012 in connection with Fortegra's efforts to locate and gather certificates and other documents from Fortegra's agents. The court did not award sanctions and Fortegra has retained a special master to facilitate the collection of certificates and other documents from Fortegra's agents. In January 2015, the trial court issued an Order denying Fortegra’s motion to decertify the class, which was upheld on appeal. In June 2016, the court established a briefing schedule for Fortegra’s Motion for Summary Judgment, which was filed in June 2015. No trial or hearings are currently scheduled.

Tiptree considers such litigation customary in Fortegra’s lines of business. In management's opinion, based on information available at this time, the ultimate resolution of such litigation, which it is vigorously defending, should not be materially adverse to the financial position of Tiptree. It should be noted that large punitive damage awards, bearing little relation to actual damages sustained by plaintiffs, have been awarded in certain states against other companies in the credit insurance business. At this time, the Company cannot estimate a range of loss that is reasonably possible.

Tiptree and its subsidiaries are parties to other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although Tiptree’s legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, Tiptree does not believe that these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on Tiptree’s financial position.

(24) Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates basic net income per Class A common share based on the weighted average number of Class A common shares outstanding (inclusive of vested restricted share units). The unvested restricted share units have the non-forfeitable right to participate in dividends declared and paid on the Company’s common stock on an as vested basis and are therefore considered a participating security. The Company calculates basic earnings per share using the “two-class” method, and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2015, the loss from continuing operations available to common stockholders was not allocated to the unvested restricted stock units as those holders do not have a contractual obligation to share in net losses.

Diluted net income per Class A common shares for the period includes the effect of potential equity of Siena, Reliance, and Operating Company as well as potential Class A common stock, if dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the assumed exercise of all dilutive instruments were anti-dilutive, and therefore, were not included in the diluted net income per Class A common share calculation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

The following discussion is of Tiptree on a consolidated basis before non-controlling interests except where the discussion specifically notes that the amounts are attributable to the Class A common stockholders. For a discussion of non-controlling interests see Note—(1) Organization, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations is presented in this section as follows:
Overview
Results of Operations
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

Tiptree is a diversified holding company engaged in a number of businesses through its consolidated subsidiaries and is an active acquirer of new businesses. The Company currently has five reporting segments: insurance and insurance services, specialty finance, real estate, asset management, and corporate and other. See Note—(5) Operating Segment Data, in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for detailed information regarding our segments. Since different factors affect the financial condition and results of operation of each segment, the following discussion is presented on both a consolidated and segment basis.

Since we acquired Reliance on July 1, 2015, the results of Reliance are not included in our specialty finance results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The results of PFG, which was sold on June 30, 2015, are presented in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and are not included in the comparable results for 2016.

The Company has identified internal control deficiencies that in the aggregate resulted in material weaknesses as of December 31, 2015 that have not been fully remediated and tested. See “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” below for more details.

Significant Events in the Quarter

Tiptree purchased 5,596,000 shares of Class A common stock for $36.4 million at a 29% discount to March 31, 2016 book value per Class A share.
Purchased an additional $10.7 million in NPLs, bringing the Company’s total investment in NPLs to $62.3 million.
Launched seventh CLO with Tiptree investment of $26 million in subordinated notes.

In addition, on August 1, 2016, Care acquired an additional seniors housing community for $29.4 million.

Market Trends

Our results of operations are affected by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, market liquidity, consumer confidence, wage growth, business confidence and investment, GDP growth, home affordability, housing starts, market volatility, interest rates and spreads, impact of regulatory environment, and aging U.S. population demographics. The following current trends and market conditions specifically impacted our businesses in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and may impact our businesses in future periods. The impact on each segment is discussed in more detail in the individual segment results below.
In June 2016, the UK voted to leave the European Union in what has been referred to as “Brexit”. As Tiptree’s businesses are focused on the U.S., the primary potential impacts to the Company from Brexit are the effects that event has had and might be anticipated to have on interest rates, overall market sentiment and general market volatility, given the uncertainties regarding Brexit’s effect on the global economy. Subsequent to the UK vote, safe haven capital flows have moved into U.S. Treasury securities further driving down long term interest rates and flattening the yield curve. Globally, central banks are easing, while the U.S. Federal Reserve is considering continued tightening. The resultant strengthening of the U.S. dollar and heightened volatility in stock markets has caused the U.S. Federal Reserve to pause its rate increases. The lower rate environment could impact the performance of our businesses as described in more detail below. In addition, as a significant portion of our assets are carried at fair value, credit and stock market volatility could potentially add volatility to unrealized gains and losses in our GAAP income statements.

1




Our businesses are impacted in various ways by changing interest rates. Most of our businesses have used asset based and other limited recourse financing to fund their business activities, much of which is floating rate debt. However, most of our variable rate facilities have LIBOR floors, which can result in a reduction in net interest margins in a declining interest rate environment, in particular, if earnings on our assets do not have similar floors or are based on different benchmarks than LIBOR, such as treasury rates or the prime rate. Demand for our specialty finance lending products can be impacted by interest rates, primarily mortgage rates and ten year U.S. Treasury rates. Certain of our subsidiaries have also entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix all or a portion of their interest rate exposure which are currently designated as hedging relationships for accounting purposes. Interest rates have dropped significantly year over year, with the U.S. 10 Year Treasury rate down significantly over the period. In addition, the yield curve has flattened by a similar amount, with the spread between the U.S. 2 Year and 10 Year Treasury securities near its narrowest point since 2007. We have seen volume in our mortgage business increase quarter over quarter as a result of higher refinance volume, driven by the significant drop in longer term rates. The interest rate decline has also resulted in additional interest expense in our real estate segment, due to the fair value effect of interest rate swaps not currently designated in hedging relationships.
Along with interest rates, home sales and home price appreciation impact our mortgage segment originations. According to Fannie Mae, home sales were up 3.2% year-over-year and 4.1% on a sequential quarter basis. Industry wide mortgage originations were flat in the second quarter on a year-over-year basis, but Fannie Mae projects originations to be up 15% in the third quarter from the prior year, driven primarily by the higher expected refinance volumes in the lower rate environment. Industry factors impacted our year-over-year mortgage origination comparison discussed in our Specialty Finance segment below.
A significant portion of our assets, including our CLO subordinated notes and other principal investments, are held at fair value and changes in fair value of these assets are reported quarterly as unrealized gains and losses in revenues. The dealer price quotes that we receive for our CLO subordinated notes are a function of the trading levels for similar securities and the results of cash flow analysis that the dealers, buyers and sellers, perform to determine price along with seller-specific liquidity issues. Recently, leveraged loan price volatility has been driven primarily by default expectations in the energy, metals and mining sectors. While we saw credit spreads stabilize toward the end of the first quarter and into the second quarter, we expect volatility in the prices of leveraged loans and the valuation of CLO subordinated notes to continue throughout 2016. The ability to issue new CLOs is dependent, in part, on the amount of excess interest earned on a new CLO’s investments over interest payable on its debt obligations. If the spread is not attractive to potential CLO equity investors, we may not be able to sponsor the issuance of new CLOs. During the fourth quarter of 2015 and first quarter of 2016, there was a dislocation in the credit markets that significantly impeded CLO formation and created downward pressure on CLO manager fees for new CLOs. While the market stabilized later in the first quarter of 2016, providing us with the opportunity to launch Telos 7, there remain continued pressure on terms and conditions. As a result, at the time of the issuance of Telos 7, we retained all of the subordinated notes and certain of the assets in the warehouse. We have sold the majority of such retained assets at a net gain, and continue to hold the subordinated notes as of the end of the second quarter.

Key Drivers of Results of Operations
Net Income Before Taxes from Continuing Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 net income before taxes from continuing operations was $11.0 million which represented an increase of $12.6 million from the three months ended June 30, 2015. The Company earned income before taxes from continuing operations of $16.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, which was an increase of $23.5 million from the six months ended June 30, 2015. The key drivers of pre-tax results from continuing operations were improved profitability in our insurance and insurance services segment driven by higher revenues and investment income, increased rental income in our senior housing real estate operations, increases in mortgage volume and margins with the addition of Reliance and improving market conditions, and increased revenue on principal investments partially offset by higher corporate expenses associated with our effort to improve our controls and financial reporting infrastructure. A discussion of the changes in revenues, expenses and net income is presented below and in more detail in our segment analysis.

Revenues

The Company reported revenues of $133.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, which was an increase of $32.7 million or 32.4% from the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported revenues of $265.6 million, an increase of $75.5 million or 39.7% from the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary drivers of the increase in revenues were improvements in earned premiums, service and administrative fees and investment income in our insurance and insurance services segment, increased mortgage volume and margins from the acquisition of Reliance in specialty finance, improvement in rental income attributable to acquisitions of senior housing properties at Care, and improvement in the performance of our principal investments.

Expenses

Total Company expenses were $127.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $24.9 million or 24.3% from the three months ended June 30, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred expenses of $255.6 million, an increase of $58.3 million or 29.5% from the prior year period. The primary drivers of the increase in expenses were commission expenses in insurance and insurance services as a result of the growth in written premiums, higher payroll and commission expense primarily related to the addition of Reliance volume and headcount in specialty finance, increased operating expenses and depreciation and amortization associated with additional investments in our real estate segment and increases in corporate payroll and professional expenses to improve our reporting and controls infrastructure.

Income Before Non-Controlling Interests

The Company reported net income before non-controlling interest of $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, a decrease of $12.8 million from the three months ended June 30, 2015. The primary drivers of the year-over-year difference in net income before non-controlling interests were the same factors which impacted the positive year-over-year change in pre-tax income from continuing operations, and which were more than offset by $21.0 million of earnings from discontinued operations related to PFG reported in the second quarter of 2015 that did not repeat in 2016.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, net income before non-controlling interests was $14.4 million, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 18.9% from the comparable prior year period. The primary drivers of the year-over-year difference in net income before non-controlling interests were the same factors which impacted the positive year-over-year change in pre-tax income from continuing operations, and which were more than offset by $23.3 million of earnings from discontinued operations in the six months ended June 30, 2015, which included the one-time net gain on the sale of PFG of $16.3 million. Additionally, a tax benefit of $2.4 million was recognized in the first quarter 2016, which was driven by discrete tax benefits of $4.0 million primarily from the tax reorganization effective January 1, 2016.

Net Income/(Loss) Available to Class A Common Stockholders

The Company reported net income available to Class A common shareholders of $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $15.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 net income available to Class A common shareholders was $11.7 million, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 16.4% from the prior year period. The key drivers of net income available to Class A common shareholders were consistent with those that contributed to the differences in income before non-controlling interests, partially benefiting from a reduction of non-controlling interests in the third quarter of 2015. As of June 30, 2016, the Class A common stockholders were entitled to approximately 81% of the net income of the Company, compared to approximately 77% as of June 30, 2015. For more information on the Company’s structure, see Note—(1) Organization, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

One of the performance metrics management uses is EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that use of these financial measures on a consolidated basis and for each segment provides supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze performance period to period, and to analyze a company’s ability to service its debt and to facilitate comparison among companies. The Company believes segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides additional supplemental information to compare results among our segments. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in determining incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers. These measures are not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for net income.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations was $17.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $10.2 million or 142.4% from the three months ended June 30, 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $32.8 million, an increase of $20.7 million or 172.7% from the six months ended June 30, 2015. The key drivers of the change in Adjusted EBITDA were the same as those which impacted our pre-tax income from continuing operations. The smaller increase in Adjusted EBITDA versus the amount reported for pre-tax income from continuing operations was primarily driven by the smaller period-over-period changes attributable to increased depreciation and amortization at our real estate segment and the lower purchase accounting impacts at our insurance and insurance services segment.

Total Adjusted EBITDA

Total Company Adjusted EBITDA was $17.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, a decrease of $14.8 million from the three months ended June 30, 2015. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $32.8 million, a decrease of $12.5 million from the six months ended June 30, 2015. The largest driver of the decrease for both periods was the sale of PFG which contributed $25.0 million and $33.2 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The other drivers were the same factors that impacted Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations.

Insurance and Insurance Services segment - operating results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015

The Company’s insurance and insurance services segment is comprised of its wholly-owned Fortegra subsidiary, which we acquired in December 2014. The acquisition of Fortegra resulted in purchase price accounting adjustments in our insurance and insurance services segment giving effect to the push-down accounting treatment of the acquisition. These adjustments include setting deferred cost assets to a fair value of zero, modifying deferred revenue liabilities to their respective fair values, and recording a substantial intangible asset representing the value of the business acquired (“VOBA”). The application of push-down accounting creates a modest impact to net income, but significantly impacts individual assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.

The following discussion of our insurance and insurance services segment also presents operating results and net revenues by product mix information as adjusted to eliminate the effects of purchase price accounting (“As Adjusted”). These As Adjusted results are a non-GAAP financial measure. Due to acquisition accounting, the line items through which revenue and expenses related to acquired contracts are recognized differ from those related to newly originated contracts. As a result, eliminating the effects of purchase accounting provides for better period-over-period comparison of the underlying operating performance of the business and aligns more closely with the basis upon which management performance is measured. The Company believes that presenting this As Adjusted information provides useful information to investors regarding our period-over-period insurance and insurance services segment operations. In addition, management of the Company evaluates the operations of our insurance and insurance services segment using this As Adjusted information including for compensation of management of the Fortegra segment.

The following tables present our insurance and insurance services segment results on a GAAP basis and an As Adjusted basis (a non-GAAP measure which excludes the effects of purchase price accounting).

As Adjusted pre-tax income was $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $2.7 million or 54.7%. The primary drivers of the period-over-period improvement include an increase in net revenues of $0.9 million driven by improvements in investment income and earned premiums, partially offset by higher commission expense and net loss and loss adjustment expense. As Adjusted operating expenses were down $1.8 million as a result of cost actions taken throughout 2015 to reduce headcount, professional fees and other expenses.

Insurance and insurance services segment pre-tax income was $17.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $6.7 million or 65.4% over the prior year period operating results.

Revenues

Insurance and insurance services segment revenues are generated by the sale of the following products and services: credit protection, warranty, specialty products and other. Credit protection products include the following types of insurance: credit life, credit disability, credit property, involuntary unemployment, and accidental death and dismemberment. Warranty products include cell phone warranty, furniture and appliance service contracts and auto service contracts. Specialty products are primarily non-standard auto rebate insurance such as tire/wheel or windshield coverage. Services and other revenues principally represent investment income, fees for insurance sales and business process outsourcing services, and interest for premium and mobile device plan financing, and include the impact to fee income, ceding commissions, and commissions expense from the purchase accounting effect of VOBA related to insurance contracts. The net revenue impact of VOBA, which is additive to net revenue, is substantially offset by increased amortization expense recorded in depreciation and amortization expense.

For insurance and insurance services, the main components of revenue are service and administrative fees, ceding commissions and earned premiums, net. Total revenues were $87.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, up $9.3 million, or 11.8% over the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in earned premiums of $6.6 million, or 16.6%, an increase of $2.7 million, or 10.7%, in service and administrative fees, and an increase of $1.0 in investment income, offset by a reduction of $1.0 million in other income.

Total revenues were $177.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, up $26.2 million, or 17.4% over the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in earned premiums of $13.8 million, or 18.0%, an increase of $11.1 million, or 23.4%, in service and administrative fees, and an increase of $3.2 million in investment income, partially offset by a decrease of $3.1 million in other income.

The following tables present As Adjusted product revenue mix within the insurance and insurance services segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. We use As Adjusted net revenues as another means of understanding product contributions to our results and provides a comparison of period-over-period risk retained by the Company. As Adjusted net revenues are shown as total revenue less commissions paid to brokers, member benefit claims and net loss and loss adjustment expenses adjusted to eliminate the effects of purchase price accounting. Period-over-period comparisons of total revenues are often impacted by our clients’ choice as to whether to retain risk, the impact of which is visible in this metric. The following table should be read in conjunction with the table above, presenting As Adjusted results reconciled to GAAP results.

As Adjusted net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $28.7 million, up $0.9 million or 3.3% from the comparable 2015 period. The increase was primarily driven by improvements in investment income, and higher service and administrative fees in the credit protection and specialty products lines. Those improvements were dampened slightly by a reduction in period-over-period As Adjusted net revenues for cell phone warranty contracts as competitive pressures remain.

Credit protection As Adjusted net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $15.8 million, higher than the comparable 2015 period operating results by $1.2 million or 8.4%. Warranty products, including cell phone protection, were $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, down $2.0 million or 24.6% from the comparable 2015 period. Specialty products As Adjusted net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $2.6 million, up 69.2% from the prior year period.

Net revenues are net of commissions paid to brokers. Commission expense is incurred on most product lines, the majority of which are retrospective commissions paid to distributors and retailers selling our products, including credit insurance policies, motor club memberships, mobile device protection and warranty service contracts. Credit insurance commission rates are, in many cases, set by state regulators and are also impacted by market conditions and retention levels. Total commission expense of $34.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, was up $10.9 million, driven by the increase in policies issued in the credit life and specialty auto warranty product lines, partially offset by lower purchase accounting adjustments. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, commission expense adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting was $37.9 million, up $2.2 million from the prior year period as a result of the increased written premiums and policies issued described above.

There are two types of income reductions for claims payments under insurance and warranty service contracts: member benefit claims and net losses and loss adjustment expenses. Member benefit claims represent the costs of services and replacement devices incurred in car club and warranty protection service contracts. Net losses and loss adjustment expenses represent actual insurance claims paid, changes in unpaid claim reserves, net of amounts ceded, and the costs of administering claims for credit life and other insurance lines, such as non-standard auto. Incurred claims are impacted by loss frequency, which is a measure of the number of claims per unit of insured exposure, and loss severity, which is based on the average size of claims. Factors affecting loss frequency and loss severity include changes in claims reporting patterns, claims settlement patterns, judicial decisions, economic conditions, morbidity patterns and the attitudes of claimants towards settlements.

Member benefits claims and net losses and loss adjustment expenses, combined were $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, with net losses and loss adjustments up $4.3 million period-over-period, partially offset by a reduction in member benefit claims of $2.6 million.

Credit protection As Adjusted net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $31.7 million, higher than the comparable 2015 period operating results by $3.5 million or 12.4%. Warranty products, including cell phone protection, were $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, down $3.4 million or 21.1% from the comparable 2015 period. Specialty products As Adjusted net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $5.0 million, up 75.9% from the prior year period operating results due to increased earned premiums and service and administrative fees. Credit protection products and specialty products continue to provide opportunities for growth through a combination of expanded product offerings, new clients and geographic expansion in the latter case.


10




Total commission expense of $67.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, was driven by the increase in policies issued in the credit life and specialty auto warranty and insurance products. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, commission expense adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting was $75.2 million, up $6.5 million from the prior year period as a result of increased written premiums and policies issued.

Member benefits claims and net losses and loss adjustment expenses, combined were $46.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, with net losses and loss adjustments up $9.8 million period-over-period, partially offset by a reduction in member benefit claims of $4.5 million. The increase in net losses over the prior year period was a function of growth in earned premiums in non-standard auto and motor club and credit life, partially offset by lower claims in mobile devices.

Expenses

Operating expenses in the insurance and insurance services segment are composed of payroll and employee commissions, interest expense, professional fees, depreciation and amortization expenses and other expenses. Segment operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $22.0 million, a decrease of $5.1 million or 18.8% as compared to the previous year period costs. The primary driver of the period-over-period decrease was attributable to lower depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the decline in the purchase accounting impact from the amortization of the fair value attributed to the insurance policies and contracts acquired, which was $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 versus $4.7 million in the comparable 2015 period. As adjusted operating expenses of $21.2 million were down period-over-period as a result of the cost reduction efforts described above.

Segment operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $45.6 million, a decrease of $13.3 million or 22.6% as compared to the previous year period costs. The primary driver of the period-over-period decrease was attributable to lower depreciation and amortization expense as a result of the decline in the purchase accounting impact from the amortization of the fair value attributed to the insurance policies and contracts acquired, which was $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 versus $14.1 million in the comparable 2015 period. As Adjusted operating expenses of $43.4 million were down by $2.7 million period-over-period as a result of the cost reduction efforts described above.

Payroll and employee commissions expense are the largest component of expenses and are composed of base salaries, employee commissions and accruals for employee paid time off and bonuses. Payroll and employee commission expense was $9.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, down from the prior year period by $0.4 million as cost reduction efforts have begun to stabilize. Payroll and employee commission expense was $18.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, down from the prior year period by $1.2 million as a result of cost reduction efforts in 2015.

Professional fees and other expenses were $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, down $0.6 million period-over-period. Professional fees and other expenses were $16.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, up $0.5 million period-over-period, as a result of an increase in premium taxes on earned premiums for credit and specialty products in the first quarter of 2016. Other expenses are primarily comprised of acquisition, advertising and event costs, bank and credit card processing fees, technology expenses, filing and licensing fees, premium taxes and office rent costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense of $3.4 million and $7.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, related primarily to the amortization of the intangible assets acquired, as mentioned above. The most significant of these expenses is the amortization of the fair value attributed to the insurance policies and contracts acquired, which had a value of $36.5 million as of the acquisition date and has a steep amortization curve. Amortization of this intangible asset was approximately $0.9 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as a significant portion was amortized in 2015. For information relating to Fortegra’s debt and interest expenses, please refer to Note—(16) Debt, net, of the accompanying financial statements.

Net Written Premiums

Written premiums represent the amount of premiums customers are required to pay for insurance policies. This is different from premium earned, which is the amount of premiums earned by providing insurance against various risks. The following tables present product gross and net written premiums for the insurance and insurance services segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Adjusted EBITDA

Insurance and insurance services segment adjusted EBITDA was $11.4 million and $23.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The key drivers of Adjusted EBITDA growth was higher credit insurance and specialty products net revenues, increased investment income, and lower operating expenses, adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting effects, partially offset by lower warranty revenues driven by competition in the cell phone warranty business. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation to GAAP net income.

The specialty finance segment is comprised of the operations of Siena, a commercial finance company, which is 62% owned by the Company and our mortgage origination business, which is conducted through two entities, Reliance, a mortgage originator, which is 100% owned as of July 1, 2015 and Luxury, a mortgage originator which is 67.5% owned by the Company.

Results

Specialty finance pre-tax income was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $0.6 million for the same period in 2015. The key drivers of the increase were the addition of Reliance’s earnings in 2016 and increases in average loans outstanding at Siena over the prior year period. Segment revenues were $22.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $8.0 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $14.2 million or 178.3%. Segment expenses were $19.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $7.4 million in the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $12.5 million or 168.5%. Margins expanded as revenue growth outpaced expense increases as the businesses scaled operations and increased their volumes.


13




For the six months ended June 30, 2016, specialty finance pre-tax income was $1.3 million compared with $1.0 million for the same period in 2015. Segment revenues were $38.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $14.2 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $24.5 million or 172.4%. Segment expenses were $37.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $13.2 million in the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $24.2 million or 183.0%. For the first half of 2016, year-over-year expenses increased at a higher rate than revenues, which was driven by increasing mortgage payroll and marketing expenses as the businesses expanded loan officer headcount in an effort to grow originations. Growth in volume tends to lag the hiring of new loan officers as the full ramp up of productivity generally takes four to six months.

Siena

Siena’s pre-tax income was $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with pre-tax income of $0.4 million for the comparable 2015 period. Siena’s pre-tax income was $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with pre-tax income of $0.7 million for the comparable 2015 period. The increase in Siena’s results was driven by increased loan originations and higher utilization rates of facilities by borrowers thus increasing interest income and loan fees. Higher revenues were partially offset by higher payroll and operating expenses as the portfolio continues to grow.

Revenues

Siena’s revenues totaled $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $2.4 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $0.7 million or 29.2%. Siena had average earning assets of $70.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $56.2 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of 25.8%.

Siena’s revenues totaled $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $4.3 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $1.0 million or 24.4%. Siena had average earning assets of $63.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $51.0 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of 25.2%. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by the increase in lending volume and interest margins as well as increases in one time fees and administrative fees.

Expenses

Siena’s expenses were $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $2.0 million in the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $0.3 million or 15.1%. Expenses were $4.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $3.6 million in the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $0.7 million or 20.1%. Siena’s expenses are comprised primarily of payroll and employee commissions, interest and other expenses. Growth in expenses was at a slower pace than the increase in lending volume as the additions to headcount are less than the growth in volume.

Mortgage Business

The mortgage business’s pre-tax income was $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $0.2 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $1.4 million. Mortgage origination volume improved from $258.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to $432.0 million for the current year period, while realizing 228.8 basis points improvement in net revenue margins year-over-year. Increased revenues were partially offset by higher expenses, which increased from $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to $17.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

The mortgage business’s pre-tax income was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $0.3 million for the same period in 2015, representing flat earnings year-over-year. Mortgage origination volume improved 84.5% from $439.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 to $764.8 million for the current year period while realizing 207.7 basis points improvement in revenue margins year-over-year. This was primarily a result of the inclusion of Reliance’s volume and increase in product mix towards higher margin Federal Housing Administration and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“FHA/VA”) and agency products. Increased revenues were offset by higher expenses, which increased from $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 to $33.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily driven by non-commission based payroll expenses, for sales personnel and new loan officers and increased marketing expenses to support the expected volume growth from the new loan officers. Increases in general expenses for audit, consulting, tax and licensing expenses as well as longer timelines to close new volume as a result of the implementation of new regulations were also factors in the increased expenses, particularly in the first quarter of 2016. As mentioned earlier, the increase in productivity for new sales staff to get to tenured levels is typically four to six months, resulting in a lag in volume.

For comparative purposes, total headcount of our mortgage businesses within the specialty finance segment, including Reliance, in the second quarter of 2015 was 451 persons.

Revenues

Total origination volume increased from $258.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015 to $432.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 and from $439.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 to $764.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016. Funded volume increased at a faster pace than brokered volume primarily due to the fact that the substantial majority of Reliance’s volume is in this category. Total sold volume in the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $381.3 million, up from $217.2 million in the comparable 2015 period. Total sold volume in the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $729.9 million, up from $358.7 million in the comparable 2015 period. The primary driver of the increase in volume was the acquisition of Reliance.

Net revenue margins also improved in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary driver of the improved margins was the higher mix of FHA/VA and agency volumes. Agency and FHA/VA originations tend to have higher net revenue margin than jumbo and brokered volumes.

Mortgage business revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $19.2 million compared with $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $13.5 million or 241.2%. Mortgage business revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $33.5 million compared with $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $23.5 million or 235.8%. The revenue improvement was driven primarily by the inclusion of Reliance’s originations, which resulted in both higher funding volume and improved margins. Revenues earned by the mortgage business are comprised of gain on sale on mortgages originated and sold to investors, gains and losses on the mortgage pipeline of interest rate lock commitments and mortgage loans held for sale and the associated hedges, net interest income on mortgages held for sale, and fees associated with

15




the mortgage origination business. Loan fees are primarily comprised of loan application fees, appraisal fees, document preparation fees, broker fees earned and loan underwriting fees.

Expenses

Mortgage business expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $17.6 million compared with $5.4 million for the comparable period in 2015, an increase of $12.2 million or 224.9%. Mortgage business expenses, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $33.2 million compared with $9.7 million for the comparable period in 2015, an increase of $23.5 million or 243.1%. Expenses are composed of payroll and employee commissions, professional fees and other expenses. The primary driver of higher expenses for the first half of 2016 was a combination of the inclusion of Reliance, and higher payroll and other employee expenses plus higher marketing costs to support the higher number of sales personnel. On a comparable basis, including Reliance headcount from June 30, 2015, headcount increased by 20.0% which was a driver of increased expenses. Typically there is a lag in increased originations as a result of the time for new loan officers to improve productivity which impacted the higher growth in expenses relative to revenue. Additionally, slight increases in general expenses for audit, consulting, tax and licensing expenses were incurred as Reliance is incorporated into the controls process and expenses are incurred to remediate the material weakness at Luxury.

Adjusted EBITDA

Specialty finance Adjusted EBITDA was $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.7 million in the prior year period. Specialty finance Adjusted EBITDA was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to income of $1.2 million in the prior year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by the same factors that impacted pre-tax income explained above. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation to GAAP net income.

The Company’s real estate segment consists of its wholly-owned Care subsidiary, which primarily acquires and operates seniors housing properties. As of June 30, 2016, Care’s portfolio consists of 26 properties across 10 states primarily in the Mid-Atlantic and Southern United States comprised of 11 Triple Net Lease Properties and 15 Managed Properties.

In Triple Net Lease Properties, Care owns the real estate and enters into a long term lease with an operator who is typically responsible for bearing operating costs, including maintenance, utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs and capital improvements. The operations of the Triple Net Lease Properties are not consolidated since Care does not manage or own the underlying operations. For Triple Net Lease Properties operations, Care recognizes primarily rental income from the lease since substantially all expenses are passed through to the tenant. In Managed Properties, Care generally owns between 65-80% of the real estate and the operations with affiliates of the management company owning the remainder. Care therefore consolidates all of the assets, liabilities, income and expense of the Managed Properties operations in segment reporting. The real estate segment operating results present revenues and expenses, which include amounts attributable to non-controlling interests, by property type in our real estate segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

In addition to Adjusted EBITDA, we also evaluate performance of our real estate segment based on net operating income (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP measure. We consider NOI as an important supplemental measure used to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate segment because it allows investors, analysts and our management to assess our unleveraged property-level operating results and to compare our operating results between periods and to the operating results of other real

16




estate companies on a consistent basis. We define NOI as total revenue less property operating expense. Property operating expenses and resident fees and services are not relevant to Care’s Triple Net Lease Properties since Care does not manage the underlying operations and substantially all expenses are passed through to the tenant. Our calculation of NOI may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. NOI is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for pre-tax income. The following tables include a reconciliation of NOI to pre-tax income for our real estate segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Results

Care had a pre-tax loss of $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with pre-tax loss of $2.0 million for the same period in 2015. Care had a pre-tax loss of $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with pre-tax loss of $6.2 million for the same period in 2015. The lower losses in both periods was driven by greater growth in rental income than operating expenses due to improvements in the underlying properties.

Since February 2015, Care has invested in 13 additional senior housing properties: 11 in February and March 2015 and two in January and March 2016. The increase in the number of properties over those periods has generated higher rental and other income in the 2016 periods compared with the comparable 2015 periods. However the Company also incurred additional depreciation, amortization and interest expenses as a consequence of the growth in Care’s property portfolio. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Care acquired a new property with one of its existing operator partners for $29.4 million, of which Care contributed its pro rata share of the equity of $8.4 million.

Care’s segment NOI was $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $4.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of $0.9 million or 21.6%, primarily as a result of an increase in rental revenue partially offset by increased property operating expenses. Care’s segment NOI was $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with

17




$7.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of $2.7 million or 36.6%, primarily as a result of an increase in rental revenue partially offset by increased property operating expenses. Several of Care’s acquisitions over the last 18 months included properties that Care and its operating partners are enhancing through renovation projects and other capital upgrades in an effort to grow revenue and to allow them to operate more efficiently. As indicated in the tables above, NOI margins on Managed Properties improved from 24.2% to 26.0% for six months ended June 30, 2016 against the prior year period. As the newer facilities ramp up and stabilize, we expect our results to reflect additional NOI margin improvements.

Revenues

Care’s total revenues were $14.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $12.4 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $2.3 million or 18.4%. Rental income in the 2016 period was $13.5 million, compared with $11.2 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $2.3 million or 20.8%. Care earned other income of $1.1 million in the 2016 period, compared to $0.8 million in the comparable 2015 period. Other income was comprised of resident fees and reimbursable escrow earnings.

Care’s total revenues were $28.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $21.8 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $6.7 million or 30.9%. Rental income in the 2016 period was $26.2 million, compared with $20.5 million for the comparable 2015 period, an increase of $5.7 million or 27.8%. Care earned other income of $2.3 million in the 2016 period, compared to $1.3 million in the comparable 2015 period. The increase in rental revenue and other income was mainly due to the addition of thirteen Managed Properties, including the properties managed by Royal which were added in the first quarter of 2015 and properties managed by Royal and Heritage which were added in the first quarter of 2016.

Expenses

Care’s expenses are comprised of interest expenses on borrowings, payroll expenses (including employees of the managers at each of Care’s Managed Properties), professional fees, depreciation and amortization of properties and leases acquired and other expenses. Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $15.8 million, compared with $14.3 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $1.5 million or 10.2%. For three months ended June 30, 2016, the primary increases period-over-period include property operating expenses of $1.8 million, interest expense of $0.3 million, offset by a reduction in depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.5 million and other costs of $0.2 million. The increase in property operating expenses was primarily attributable to consolidation of the expenses of the two Managed Properties acquired in the first quarter of 2016, which also included an increase in amortization of in-place leases acquired.

Care’s expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $33.5 million, compared with $27.9 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $5.6 million or 20.1%. The primary increases period-over-period include property operating expenses of $3.8 million, interest expense of $0.8 million, payroll and other costs of $0.8 million and depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.2 million. The increase in property operating expenses was primarily attributable to consolidation of the expenses of the five Managed Properties acquired in the first quarter of 2015 and 2 acquired in the first quarter of 2016, which also included an increase in amortization of in-place leases acquired. The Company is party to interest rate swaps in order to economically hedge interest rate risk associated with its real estate portfolio debt. These instruments swap fixed to floating rate cash streams in order to maintain the economics on this mortgage debt. As a result of movements in interest rates over the six months ended June 30, 2016, an unrealized loss was recorded in other expenses for $1.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

Care had Adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $2.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015, with the drivers being the same as mentioned above for pre-tax income. Care had Adjusted EBITDA of $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $2.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015, with the drivers being the same as mentioned above for pre-tax income. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation to GAAP net income.

The Company’s asset management segment generates fee income from the CLOs under management by Telos Asset Management and from its management of NPPF 1, a portfolio of tax-exempt securities owned by third-party investors. Total fee earning AUM of our asset management segment as of June 30, 2016 was $2.1 billion, of which $2.0 billion was attributable to the CLO business and $0.1 billion was attributable to NPPF 1. As of June 30, 2015, total fee earning AUM was $2.0 billion, of which $1.8 billion was attributable to the CLO business and $0.2 billion was attributable to NPPF 1.

The Company’s AUM in CLOs increased approximately $130.8 million over the prior year period, whereas the AUM from NPPF 1 declined by $23.0 million as it is in run-off. For a review of the inter-segment allocation of revenues from CLOs under management, please refer to “—Net Income attributable to CLOs managed by the Company” below. Fee earning AUM for June 30, 2016 excludes Telos Credit Opportunities Fund of $94.1 million which is currently a proprietary fund consolidated by Tiptree and included in corporate and other segment.

Results

Pre-tax income for the asset management segment was $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $0.2 million for the 2015 period, an increase of $0.9 million. The key drivers of the increase were a reduction in payroll and employee commissions by $1.2 million due to normalizing the incentive compensation expense timing compared to the prior year period and a reduction in other expenses of $0.1 million, offset by $0.4 million reduced management fees as our older CLOs with higher fees run-off and are replaced with newer CLOs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, pre-tax income was $2.7 million compared with $2.1 million for the 2015 period, an increase of $0.7 million. The key drivers of the increase were a reduction in payroll and employee commissions by $0.8 million due to normalizing the incentive compensation expense timing compared to the prior year period, and a reduction in other expenses of $0.1 million, offset by reduced management fees. The reduction in management fees was driven by a combination of AUM declines in our older CLOs which are past their reinvestment periods and lower fees in our more recent CLOs as described herein.

Revenues

Asset management fees totaled $2.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $2.8 million for the prior year period. Asset management fees totaled $5.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $5.7 million for the prior year period.

Although the number of CLOs under management increased in April 2016 by launching Telos 7, fees earned from CLOs declined in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was due principally to the reduction in management fees and lower incentive fees earned on Telos 1 and Telos 2, which were issued in 2006 and 2007 and are now past their reinvestment period and whose assets are declining. This decline was partially offset by the gain on extinguishment of an obligation to share future management fees.

While the market stabilized late in the first quarter of 2016, providing us with the opportunity to launch Telos 7, continued pressure remained on terms and conditions. As a result, at the time of the issuance of Telos 7, we retained all of the subordinated notes and certain of the assets in the warehouse. We have sold the majority of such retained assets at a net gain, and continue to hold the subordinated notes as of the end of the second quarter.

Expenses
Total expenses for the asset management segment were $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, which is driven by lower payroll expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016, reflective of the normalization of incentive compensation in the current period as compared to the prior year.

Total expenses for the asset management segment were $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared with $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, which is driven by lower payroll expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016, reflective of the normalization of incentive compensation in the current period as compared to the prior year.
 
Adjusted EBITDA

Asset management segment adjusted EBITDA was $1.1 million and $2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to $0.2 million and $2.1 million for the comparable prior year periods. The increase was driven by the same factors discussed above under “Results”. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation to GAAP net income.

Net Income attributable to CLOs managed by the Company - for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015

The Company earns revenues from CLOs under management, which comprise fees earned for managing the CLOs, distributions received from the Company’s holdings of subordinated notes issued by the CLOs and realized and unrealized gains and losses from the Company’s holdings of subordinated notes. The management fees earned from the CLOs described below are reported in the asset management segment, while the sum of distributions earned and gains and losses on the Company’s holdings of subordinated notes issued by the CLOs are reported as net income (loss) attributable to the consolidated CLOs in the Company’s corporate and other segment.

The table below shows the Company’s share of the results attributable to the CLOs, some of which are consolidated and some of which are not consolidated, which is a non-GAAP measure, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. Management believes this information is helpful for period-over-period comparative purposes.

All comparisons reference the Non-GAAP total column in the table above. Including the net income from our deconsolidated CLOs, pre-tax income from the Company’s CLO business was $6.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared with $1.9 million for the same period in 2015. The primary drivers of the year-over-year increase of $4.7 million were increased

20




distributions of $0.6 million and lower realized and unrealized losses incurred on the Company’s holdings of subordinated notes of $4.4 million, which was only partially offset by the $0.4 million year-over-year reduction in management fees. This management fee reduction was due to the runoff of Telos 1 and Telos 2, which are past their reinvestment period, plus the impact of lower fees on later CLOs. The realized and unrealized losses in the three months ended June 30, 2016 were less than the same period in 2015 due to a recovery of the mark-to-market write-down taken on our CLO subordinated note holdings in the second half of 2015 and first quarter of 2016.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, pre-tax income from the Company’s CLO business was $9.4 million compared to $2.7 million in the same period in 2015. The increases were driven by a reduction in losses of $9.6 million, partially offset by lower management fees and distributions of $0.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The decline in distributions is a result of lower overall subordinated note holdings and the reduction in the realized and unrealized losses was due to a slight recovery of the marked-to-market position in the 2016 period as compared to the marks taken throughout the 2015 period.

The Company’s corporate and other segment incorporates revenues from the Company’s principal investments, which include CLO subordinated notes, tax exempt securities, income from the Company’s credit investment portfolio and net gains or losses from the Company’s corporate finance activity, including the interest rate and credit derivative risk mitigation transactions. Segment expenses include interest expense on the Fortress credit facility and head office payroll, professional fees and other expenses.

Corporate and Other Results

Pre-tax income for the corporate and other segment was $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with a loss of $6.7 million for the 2015 period, an increase of $7.4 million. The key drivers of year-over-year increase were $5.3 million in CLO subordinated notes performance, $4.3 million in Credit investments (including the Telos 7 warehouse, Telos Credit Opportunities fund and NPLs) and improvement in Corporate principal investments revenues of $0.6 million, partially offset by increases in Corporate expenses of $2.8 million related to payroll and professional services.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a loss of $0.1 million compared with a loss of $14.7 million for the 2015 period, an increase of $14.6 million. The key drivers of year-over-year increase were $5.7 million in CLO subordinated notes performance, $7.2 million in Credit investments and improvement in Corporate principal investments revenues of $7.2 million, partially offset by increases in Corporate expenses of $5.5 million related to payroll and professional services.

CLO subordinated notes and Tax exempt securities

The Company’s CLO subordinated notes portfolio consists of subordinated notes and related participations in management fees issued primarily by CLOs managed by the Company (“CLO holdings”). As of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, the Company’s CLO holdings of subordinated notes and related participations, at fair value, were $50.0 million and $42.7 million respectively. The company’s tax-exempt securities portfolio was sold in March 2016 for $8.9 million in proceeds and a loss on sale of $1.0 million.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company earned pre-tax income of $4.2 million on its CLO holdings, which comprised net distributions received of $3.9 million and unrealized gains of $0.3 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, CLO holdings recorded pre-tax loss of $1.1 million, comprising primarily of $3.2 million cash distributions and $4.1 million of unrealized losses. The primary driver of the year-over-year increase was higher cash distributions and lower realized and unrealized losses incurred on the Company’s holdings of subordinated notes. The realized and unrealized losses in the three months ended June 30, 2016 were less than the same period in 2015 due to a recovery of the mark-to-market write-down taken on our CLO subordinated note holdings in the second half of 2015 and first quarter of 2016.

In the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company earned pre-tax income of $2.9 million on these portfolios, compared with a loss of $2.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $5.7 million. The primary increases were driven by a reduction in losses on CLOs of $9.6 million, only partially offset by lower distributions $2.2 million. The decline in distributions is a result of lower overall subordinated note holdings for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the reduction in the realized and unrealized losses was due to a partial recovery of the marked-to-market position in the 2016 period as compared to the marks taken throughout 2015. The CLO holdings earnings were partially offset by the sale of the remainder of the Company’s tax-exempt securities portfolio in March 2016 for $8.9 million in proceeds and a loss on sale of $1.0 million.

Credit investments

The Company’s credit investment portfolio comprises its loan warehouse, Credit Opportunity fund and investments in mortgage NPLs. The Company establishes loan warehouse credit facilities which are designed to hold loans until new CLOs are formed. The Company established a warehouse facility in the third quarter of 2015 to purchase loans in anticipation of the subsequent launch of Telos 7 CLO, which occurred on April 5, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Telos 7 warehouse assets earned $2.7 million of pre-tax income, comprised of $2.6 million of interest income, $1.1 million of gains, offset by $1.0 million of interest and other expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, pre-tax earnings were $0.6 million, primarily from the loans which were excluded from the Telos 7 CLO.

The Company commenced its Credit Opportunities fund in the second quarter of 2015 with the purchase of a pool of loans of middle-market borrowers. The Company has leveraged its principal investment of $25.0 million with an asset based secured credit facility, whereby the Company may borrow up to $100 million. The Company bears the first loss on any defaults in the pool of loans. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had drawn $65.9 million of the facility. The Credit Opportunities fund earned $3.2 million of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 2016, driven by $1.5 million interest income, $2.3 million realized and unrealized gains, which were partially offset by $0.6 million of interest and other expenses. For the six months

22




ended June 30, 2016, pre-tax earnings were $4.0 million driven by $3.0 million interest income, $2.1 million realized and unrealized gains, partially offset by $1.1 million of interest and other expenses.

In the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company purchased an additional $10.7 million of mortgage NPLs, bringing the total amount invested to $62.3 million. The mortgage loans were purchased at a discount to their unpaid principal balances and the estimated value of the underlying real estate. The goal of the strategy is to earn a return on the investment through a restructuring and subsequent reselling of the mortgage at a gain or through foreclosure on the property and selling the property at a gain. The Company began investing in NPLs in the second quarter of 2015 and expected to report minimal income through the first half of 2016, until realizations on sales of loans and/or real estate properties begin to occur in the second half of the year, as costs and expenses are typically recognized at the beginning of the overall investment period while profits are realized later. As of June 30, 2016, the fair value of the NPL portfolio and related REOs was $63.3 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported $1.3 million of pre-tax earnings with unrealized gains and early realizations, partially offset by property level expenses and expenses related to establishing the strategy and purchasing the portfolio.

Corporate

Corporate revenues comprise net realized and unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s corporate investments and credit mitigation transactions. Expenses include interest expense on the Fortress credit facility and head office payroll, professional fees and other expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, revenue from Corporate investments was $0.6 million, compared with $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily the result of increased gains, interest income and dividend income on principal investments. Corporate interest expense was $1.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1.7 million in the prior year. This interest expense is primarily interest on borrowings under the Company’s credit agreement with Fortress, which average debt outstanding decreased year-over-year. In late-June 2016, the Company increased the outstanding borrowings from $45.0 to $59.5 million. Further details of the Company’s borrowings under the Fortress credit agreement are provided in Note (16)—Debt, net, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Payroll expenses, which include salaries, bonuses and benefits of $3.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $2.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015. Corporate payroll expense includes the expense of head office management, legal and accounting staff. Payroll expenses increased in the 2016 period as the Company expanded its staff as a result of our efforts to improve our reporting and controls infrastructure which was partially offset by lower accrued incentive compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the prior year as a result of lower total Adjusted EBITDA period-over-period. Other expenses primarily consisted of professional fees, insurance, office rent and other office costs and travel expenses. Other expenses were $4.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $1.4 million in the prior year. Other expenses increased in the 2016 period as a result of increased audit and compliance expenses related to internal controls over financial reporting. The higher cost was driven by increased compliance costs associated with being an accelerated filer combined with incremental consulting spend to enhance our internal control infrastructure. Other corporate expenses, including audit and consulting fees, have expanded primarily as a result of implementing enhanced infrastructure and controls, which we contributed approximately $1.0 million of cost in the three months ended June 30, 2016.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue from Corporate investments was $6.7 million, compared with losses of $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase of $7.2 million was primarily the result of $5.9 million unrealized gains on investments in the 2016 period, compared with unrealized losses of $0.7 million in the prior year. The largest gain was $4.4 million realized upon the sale of Star Asia entities in April 2016 for $13.4 million proceeds. Interest and other income also increased from $0.2 million to $0.8 million from the prior year. Corporate interest expense was $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015. This interest expense is primarily interest on borrowings under the Company’s credit agreement with Fortress. Further details of the Company’s borrowings under the Fortress credit agreement are provided in Note (16)—Debt, net, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Payroll expenses, which include salaries, bonuses and benefits of $5.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $4.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015. Corporate payroll expense includes the expense of head office management, legal and accounting staff. Payroll expenses increased in the 2016 period as the Company expanded its staff as a result of our efforts to improve our reporting and controls infrastructure. Other expenses were $9.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $4.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015. Other expenses increased in the 2016 period as a result of increased audit and compliance expenses related to internal controls over financial reporting. The higher cost was driven by increased compliance costs associated with being an accelerated filer combined with incremental consulting spend to remediate material weaknesses. Other corporate expenses, including audit and consulting fees, have expanded primarily as a result of implementing enhanced infrastructure and controls, which we contributed approximately $2.0 million of cost for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Provision for income taxes

The total income tax expense of $4.0 million and benefit of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, is reflected as a component of income (loss) from continuing operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) on income from continuing operations was equal to 36.4%, which bears a customary relationship to federal and state statutory income tax rates.
The total income tax expense of $1.6 million and benefit of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, is reflected as a component of income (loss) from continuing operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s ETR on income from continuing operations was equal to 9.8%, which does not bear a customary relationship to statutory income tax rates. The ETR for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is lower than the federal and state statutory income tax rates primarily due to $4.0 million of discrete tax benefits for the period, primarily related to the tax restructuring that resulted in a consolidated corporate tax group effective January 1, 2016. See Note—(1) Organization, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The ETR on income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 before the tax restructuring benefit was 35.5%, such ETR is lower than the federal and state statutory income tax rates primarily due to non-controlling interests at certain subsidiaries, the release of valuation allowances on net operating losses at certain subsidiaries, offset by valuation allowances on net operating losses incurred by other subsidiaries and the impact of certain gains and losses treated discretely for the period.

Discontinued operations, net

The Company completed its sale of PFG during the second quarter of 2015. As such, there was no income from discontinued operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $21.0 million and $23.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. For further information relating to the sale of PFG see Note—(4) Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale & Discontinued Operations, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Balance Sheet Information - as of June 30, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015

Tiptree’s total assets were $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2016, compared to $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2015. The $0.2 billion increase in assets is primarily attributable to acquisitions in our real estate segment, increases in loans at fair value, as well as increases in accounts premiums and re-insurance receivables at Fortegra, offset slightly by a reduction in cash and Mortgage loans held for sale.

Total stockholders’ equity of Tiptree was $287.5 million as of June 30, 2016 compared to $312.8 million as of December 31, 2015. The primary reason for the decrease in Tiptree’s stockholders’ equity was from the repurchase of approximately 16% of the Company’s outstanding Class A shares, and decreases related to dividends paid and stock purchased under the stock purchase plans described below in “Part II—Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.” These reductions were partially offset by increases from shares issuance for compensation, changes in non-controlling interests and net income.

On June 23, 2016, the Company repurchased 5,596,000 shares of Class A common stock of Tiptree for aggregate consideration of $36,374,000. The transaction is accretive to both book value per share in the current quarter and is expected to be accretive to earnings per share on a GAAP basis. The shares acquired will be held as treasury shares and will not be outstanding for accounting or voting purposes. As of June 30, 2016 there are 34,853,996 shares of Tiptree Class A common stock outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that use of these financial measures on a consolidated basis and for each segment provide supplemental information useful to investors as it is frequently used by the financial community to analyze performance period to period, to analyze a company’s ability to service its debt and to facilitate comparison among companies. The Company believes segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides additional supplemental information to compare results among our segments. Adjusted EBITDA is also used in determining incentive compensation for the Company’s executive officers. These measures are not a measurement of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for net income. The Company’s presentation of these measures may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The Company defines EBITDA as GAAP net income of the Company adjusted to add consolidated interest expense, consolidated income taxes and consolidated depreciation and amortization expense as presented in its financial statements and Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to (i) subtract interest expense on asset-specific debt incurred in the ordinary course of its

24




subsidiaries’ business operations, (ii) adjust for the effect of purchase accounting, (iii) add back significant acquisition related costs, (iv) adjust for significant relocation costs and (v) any significant one-time expenses.

(1)
The consolidated non-corporate and non-acquisition related interest expense is subtracted from EBITDA to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA. This includes interest expense associated with asset-specific debt at subsidiaries in the insurance and insurance services, specialty finance, real estate and corporate and other segments.
(2)
Following the purchase accounting adjustments, current period expenses associated with deferred costs were more favorably stated and current period income associated with deferred revenues were less favorably stated. Thus, the purchase accounting effect related to Fortegra, increased EBITDA above what the historical basis of accounting would have generated. The impact of this purchase accounting adjustments have been reversed to reflect an adjusted EBITDA without such purchase accounting effect.
(3)
For Care, Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of the change of fair value of interest rate swaps hedging the debt at the property level to conform to our updated interest rate hedging policy.
(4)
For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, $0.4 million and $1.3 million of acquisition related costs, respectively, represent costs in connection with Care’s acquisition of properties which included taxes, legal costs and other expenses.
(5)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its holdings of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and other liquid investments and distributions from operating subsidiaries and principal investments, including subordinated notes of CLOs, income from investments and sales of assets and investments. The Company intends to use its cash resources to continue to grow its businesses. Tiptree may seek additional sources of cash to fund acquisitions or investments. These additional sources of cash may take the form of debt or equity and may be at the parent, subsidiary or asset level. Tiptree is a holding company and its liquidity needs are primarily for interest payments on the Fortress credit facility, compensation, professional fees, office rent and insurance costs.

The ability of Tiptree’s subsidiaries to generate sufficient net income and cash flows to make cash distributions will be subject to numerous business and other factors, including restrictions contained in our subsidiaries’ financing agreements, regulatory restrictions, availability of sufficient funds at such subsidiaries, general economic and business conditions, tax considerations, strategic plans, financial results and other factors such as target capital ratios and ratio levels anticipated by rating agencies to maintain or improve current ratings.

We expect our cash and cash equivalents and distributions from operating subsidiaries and principal investments and our subsidiaries access to financing to be adequate to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.


26




As of June 30, 2016, the Company had unrestricted cash of $56.2 million compared to $69.4 million at December 31, 2015, a net decrease of $13.2 million primarily driven by cash invested in corporate principal investments and operating activities.

Tiptree’s approach to debt is generally to use non-recourse (other than customary carveouts, including fraud and environmental liability), asset specific debt where possible that is amortized by cash flows from the underlying business or assets financed. The Company’s  mortgage businesses rely on short term uncommitted sources of financing as a part of their normal course of operations.  To date, the Company has been able to obtain and renew uncommitted warehouse credit facilities. If the Company were not able to obtain financing, then the Company may need to draw on other sources of liquidity to fund its mortgage business.  See Note—(16) Debt, net for additional information regarding these credit facilities.

The Company has a credit facility with Fortress to provide working capital. Loans under the Fortress credit agreement bear interest at LIBOR (with a minimum LIBOR rate of 1.25%), plus a margin of 6.50% per annum. The Company is required to make quarterly principal payments of $0.5 million, subject to adjustment based on the Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Fortress credit agreement) at the end of each fiscal quarter. All remaining principal, and any unpaid interest, under the Fortress credit agreement is payable on maturity at September 18, 2018. Operating Company’s outstanding debt under the Fortress credit agreement was $59.5 million as of June 30, 2016 compared to $45.5 million as December 31, 2015. On July 22, 2016 Telos COF I, a subsidiary of Telos Credit Opportunities Fund amended its existing credit agreement with Capital One, N.A. to increase the maximum size of the facility to $150 million and extend the maturity to July 22, 2021. See Note—(16) Debt, net for additional information of the debt of Tiptree and its subsidiaries.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016
Operating Activities
Cash used in continuing operations (excluding VIEs) was $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary uses of cash from continuing operations were: increases in notes and accounts receivable and reinsurance receivables at Fortegra as written policies increased significantly, and decreases in deferred revenue and reinsurance payables at Fortegra. The primary sources of cash from continuing operations included mortgage sales outpacing originations, an increase in unearned premiums at Fortegra as a result of the credit protection and specialty products, and increase in revenues at Care as a result of increased investments in properties during the period.


27




Cash used in operating activities - VIEs was $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary uses of cash from operating activities - VIEs were due to the increases in accrued interest receivable on the loans.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations (excluding VIEs) was $81.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers included investments in NPLs and principal investments at Corporate, investments in real estate properties at Care and increase in loans at Siena.

Cash used in investing activities - VIEs was $98.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary driver of the cash used in investing activities - VIEs was purchases of loans in Telos 7 during the ramp up period as it converted from a warehouse to a CLO during the second quarter.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for continuing operations (excluding VIEs) was $49.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary drivers of the cash used included paydown of the Telos 7 warehouse debt and repurchases of common stock. The sources of cash were from borrowings at Care to fund its investments in real estate, borrowings at Siena to fund its loan growth, increase in debt at Fortegra for working capital, and an increase in borrowings at the Telos Credit Opportunities Fund to grow the loan portfolio.

Cash provided by financing activities - VIEs was $222.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 driven primarily by the senior notes issued upon the conversion of Telos 7 from a warehouse to a CLO.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

Operating Activities

Cash used in continuing operations (excluding VIEs) was $19.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary uses of cash from continuing operations included increased balances in mortgage loans held for sale as a result of higher volume in our mortgage segment, and increases in deferred acquisition costs and reinsurance receivables at Fortegra. The primary sources of cash from continuing operations (excluding VIEs) included operating cash generated at Care, increases in unearned premiums, deferred revenue, reinsurance payables and policy liabilities at Fortegra.

Cash provided by operating activities - VIEs was $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary source of cash from operating activities - VIEs was the net gains on sale of loans in the CLOs.

Investing Activities

The primary uses of cash from investing activities from continuing operations (excluding VIEs) included the acquisition of real estate properties at Care, purchases of loans in the Telos Credit Opportunities Fund, acquisition of NPLs and increases in outstanding loans at Siena. The cash provided by investing activities was primarily driven by the sale of PFG.

Cash provided by investing activities - VIEs was $33.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary driver of the use of cash in investing activities - VIEs was investments in new loans in the CLOs, more than offset by repayments and sales.

Cash used in investing activities - discontinued operations was $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary driver of cash provided from investing activities was the repayment of policy holder loans, partially offset by the purchases of available for sale debt securities.

The primary sources of cash included increased borrowings at Siena to fund loan growth, borrowings on mortgage warehouse lines and increases in borrowings at Care to fund property acquisitions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

For a discussion of recently adopted and issued accounting standards see the section “Recent Accounting Standards” in Note (2)—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, we enter into various off-balance sheet arrangements including entering into derivative financial instruments and hedging transactions, operating leases and sponsoring and owning interests in consolidated and non-consolidated variable interest entities.

Further disclosure on our off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2016 is presented in the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” in “Part I. Item 1. Financial Statements” of this filing as follows:

Note (14)—“Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging”,
Note (15)—“Assets and Liabilities of Consolidated CLOs” and
Note (23)—“Commitments and Contingencies”.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Pursuant to Item 305(c) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide disclosures under this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2016. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, because the remediation measures

29



designed to address the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below have not yet been fully implemented or sufficiently tested, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2016.

All systems of internal control, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems deemed to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework established in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). If we identify any material weaknesses, the COSO Framework does not allow the Company to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective.

As of June 30, 2016, the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that were reported as of December 31, 2015 still remain material weaknesses:

The Company did not design and operate effective process level controls to prevent or detect and correct material misstatements on a timely basis in financial statement accounts at its Care Managed Properties and at Luxury Mortgage Corp. (Luxury).
The Company did not have sufficient knowledgeable resources to operate the Company’s processes and controls at its Care Managed Properties and at Luxury. In addition, the Company failed to establish adequate monitoring activities over its Care Managed Properties and Luxury to ascertain whether the components of internal control were properly designed and operating effectively.
The Company did not design management review controls that operated at a sufficient level of precision over the accounting for and measurement of current and deferred income taxes related to the year-end income tax provision.

As of June 30, 2016, the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting specifically related to the design of management review controls for business combinations and the consolidated statement of cash flows as of December 31, 2015, were remediated during the second quarter of 2016, based on our assessment that the design, implementation, and testing of the respective controls were operating effectively.

Further, with respect to the material weakness reported as of December 31, 2015 related to the accounting for and measurement of current and deferred income taxes, the Company has remediated the process and controls over the interim period income tax accounting as of June 30, 2016 and will address the process and controls over the annual tax provision during the 2016 year-end financial statement reporting process.

Certain previously identified control deficiencies related to the process and controls over the annual tax provision during 2015 resulted in immaterial and material misstatements in income taxes. The material misstatement in income taxes was corrected prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. Other control deficiencies resulted in no misstatements.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

To remediate the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above which remain unremediated as of June 30, 2016, management, with oversight from the Audit Committee, has dedicated significant resources to improve the Company’s control environment through the following measures:

Reviewing and enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the design and operation of the processes and controls in place to measure and record transactions related to the Care Managed Properties and Luxury;
Enhancing monitoring activities and management review controls that operate over the Care Managed Properties and Luxury; and
Evaluating and enhancing the level of precision in management review controls over the year-end income tax provision.

The Company has begun to implement the measures described above; however until the remediated controls have been fully implemented for an adequate period of time and tested and concluded by management to be designed and operating effectively, the material weaknesses described above will continue to exist.

30




The Company is committed to achieving and maintaining a strong internal control environment and believes that these remediation efforts will result in significant improvements in its internal control over financial reporting. This commitment is accompanied by management’s on-going focus on processes and related controls to achieve accurate and reliable financial reporting. As we continue to evaluate and improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may execute additional measures to address potential control deficiencies or modify the remediation plan described above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In addition to the measures described above that have effectively remediated the material weaknesses related to business combinations, the consolidated statement of cash flows, and the interim period income tax accounting effective June 30, 2016, the Company has taken the following additional measures during the three months ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting:

Hired a Principal Accounting Officer with significant SEC reporting, finance and accounting experience in the financial services industry;
Augmented the level of finance resources at Luxury to enhance internal control documentation and designed and implemented robust management review controls; and
Implemented periodic audits over the Care Managed Properties to validate the accuracy of account balances with approximately half of the operating income of such properties substantially reviewed as of this filing date, and designed and implemented additional monitoring activities related to the Care Managed Properties which are focused on ensuring that process level controls are designed and operating effectively.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Tiptree’s Fortegra subsidiary is a defendant in Mullins v. Southern Financial Life Insurance Co., which was filed in February 2006, in the Pike Circuit Court, in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. A class was certified on June 25, 2010. At issue is the duration or term of coverage under certain policies. The action alleges violations of the Consumer Protection Act and certain insurance statutes, as well as common law fraud. The action seeks compensatory and punitive damages, attorney fees and interest. Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Sanctions on April 5, 2012 in connection with Fortegra's efforts to locate and gather certificates and other documents from Fortegra's agents. The court did not award sanctions and Fortegra has retained a special master to facilitate the collection of certificates and other documents from Fortegra's agents. In January 2015, the trial court issued an Order denying Fortegra’s motion to decertify the class, which was upheld on appeal. In June 2016, the court established a briefing schedule for Fortegra’s Motion for Summary Judgment, which was filed in June 2015. No trial or hearings are currently scheduled.

In management’s opinion, based on information available at this time, the ultimate resolution of such litigation, which it is vigorously defending, should not be materially adverse to the financial position of Tiptree. It should be noted that large punitive damage awards, bearing little relation to actual damages sustained by plaintiffs, have been awarded in certain states against other companies in the credit insurance business. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate a range of loss.

Tiptree and its subsidiaries are parties to other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although Tiptree’s legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, Tiptree does not believe that these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on Tiptree’s financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For information regarding factors that could affect our Company, results of operations and financial condition, see the risk factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. There have been no material change in those risk factors.

On April 13, 2016, Tiptree and Michael Barnes, Tiptree’s Executive Chairman, completed the prior share repurchase program and Rule 10b5-1 plan, respectively, which each had entered into on August 18, 2015. As such, no further purchases were made pursuant to such plans. On May 13, 2016, Tiptree engaged a broker in connection with a new share repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $2.5 million of its outstanding Class A common stock, plus block purchases of up to $10 million of its outstanding Class A common stock in the aggregate, at the discretion of Tiptree's Executive Committee. In addition, on the same date, Mr. Barnes entered into a Rule 10b5-1 plan pursuant to which he may, for his own account, purchase up to $2.5 million of Tiptree’s outstanding Class A common stock. Repurchases by Tiptree and purchases by Mr. Barnes will be made through a single broker and are anticipated to be allocated equally between Tiptree and Mr. Barnes (or to Tiptree in the case of trades that cannot be split evenly). The Company expects the share purchases to be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, subject to applicable laws and regulations.

(2)
On June 23, 2016, Tiptree terminated the share repurchase program it had entered into on May 13, 2016. The Rule 10b5-1 stock purchase plan that Mr. Barnes entered into on May 13, 2016 remains in effect.

In addition to the share repurchase activity shown in the table above, on June 23, 2016, subsidiaries of Tiptree purchased 5,596,000 shares of Class A common stock of Tiptree for aggregate consideration of $36.4 million. The shares acquired by subsidiaries of Tiptree will be held as treasury shares and therefore will not be outstanding for accounting or voting purposes.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
