 Financial Overview   
 

 Premiums - FNHC   23  Q2-17 reflects market share growth in HO-FL, HO non-FL and Auto lines of business as well as a HO-FL statewide-average rate increase of 5.6%, which became effective on August 1, 2016.Effective August 1, 2017, a HO-FL statewide-average rate increase of 9.9% took effect, which will earn into our results over the next four quarters.Breakouts for Homeowners and Automobile are provided from 1Q16 forward. 
 

 Revenue and Expenses - FNHC  24  Starting in Q3-16 total expenses (excluding Losses/LAE and taxes) increased due to: (1) the unwinding of the Florida homeowners’ 30% quota share reinsurance treaty, and (2) growth in private passenger automobile and non-Florida homeowners’, both of which embody higher commission rates than Florida homeowners’. 
 

 Net income bridge  25  Q2-17 net income equated to 24¢ per average diluted share and 5.7% annualized ROE, excluding realized investment gains.Q2-17 losses and LAE included $2.8M, pre-tax-tax, from severe weather events. 
 

 2Q17 Results by line of business - FNHC   26  See page 9 for definitions of our lines of business (LOB).Homeowners and Automobile are presented on an underwriting results basis, i.e. all net investment income and net realized investment gains are presented in Other.In conjunction with our launch of LOB reporting, 2Q17 results by LOB were impacted by the reclassification of $3.5 million (pre-tax) of net loss reserves from Other to Homeowners as a result of reassessing our reserves at an LOB level. While this reclassification had no impact on our results on a consolidated basis, it increased net income in Other and decreased net income in Homeowners by approximately $2.2 million, respectively. 
 

 Losses and lae  27  * Includes the impact of severe weather events (Hurricane Matthew, Tornados, Tropical Storm Colin, Hurricane Hermine)  *  Beginning Q4-15, we have experienced increased loss and LAE costs associated with claims in our Florida homeowners book of business due to Assignment of Benefits (“AOB”). AOB has resulted in a rate increase effective August 2016, with an additional 9.9% Florida statewide-average increase taking effect August 2017.  *
