Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements Fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities are determined in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair values are generally measured using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar securities. In those instances where observable inputs are not available, fair values are measured using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value estimates derived from unobservable inputs are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rates and the estimated amounts and timing of future cash flows. The derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange. The fair values for fixed-maturity securities that do not trade on a daily basis are determined by management, utilizing prices obtained from an independent pricing service and information provided by brokers. Management reviews the assumptions and methods utilized by the pricing service and then compares the relevant data and pricing to broker-provided data. The Company gains assurance of the overall reasonableness and consistent application of the assumptions and methodologies and compliance with accounting standards for fair value determination through ongoing monitoring of the reported fair values. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable. The following table presents information about the Company’s available-for-sale securities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value (in thousands):

With respect to the Company’s business acquisition completed in April 2012 (see Note 5), all assets acquired and liabilities assumed were valued based on Level 3 measurements. Property, plant and equipment was valued based on an external appraisal using the sales comparison approach and other unobservable inputs. The carrying amounts of all other assets and liabilities approximated their fair values at the acquisition date. There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 or the year ended December 31, 2011.
