FORWARD-LOOKI NG STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than statements of historical facts. You should not place undue reliance on these statements. These forward-looking statements include statements that reflect the current views of our senior management with respect to our financial performance and future events with respect to our business and the insurance industry in general. Statements that include the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “may,” “should,” "could," "to be," “anticipate” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

•
the cyclical nature of the workers’ compensation insurance industry;
•
increased competition on the basis of types of insurance offered, premium rates, coverage availability, payment terms, claims management, safety services, policy terms, overall financial strength, financial ratings and reputation;
•
changes in relationships with independent agencies (including retail and wholesale brokers and agents);
•
general economic conditions, including recession, inflation, performance of financial markets, interest rates, unemployment rates, fluctuating asset values and global health pandemics;
•
developments in capital markets that adversely affect the performance of our investments;
•
technology breaches or failures, including those resulting from a malicious cyber attack on the Company or its policyholders and service providers;
•
in the industries we target, decreased level of business activity of our policyholders caused by downturn in business activity generally;
•
greater frequency or severity of claims and loss activity than our underwriting, reserving or investment practices anticipate based on historical experience or industry data;
•
adverse developments in economic, competitive, judicial or regulatory conditions within the workers’ compensation insurance industry;
•
loss of the services of any of our senior management or other key employees;
•
changes in regulations, laws, rates, rating factors, or taxes applicable to the Company, its policyholders or the agencies that sell its insurance;
•
changes in current accounting standards or new accounting standards;
•
changes in legal theories of liability under our insurance policies;
•
changes in rating agency policies, practices or ratings;
•
changes in the availability, cost or quality of reinsurance and the failure of our reinsurers to pay claims in a timely manner or at all;
•
the effects of U.S. involvement in hostilities with other countries and large-scale acts of terrorism, or the threat of hostilities or terrorist acts; and
•
other risks and uncertainties described in more detail under the heading "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of this report and from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other risks described in this report and other factors described under the caption "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and as may be further amended by subsequent filings with the SEC. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. Investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which these forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the date the forward-looking statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, notwithstanding any changes in our assumptions, actual experience or other changes that arise after the date of this report.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

AMERISAFE, Inc. (the Company) is an insurance holding company incorporated in the state of Texas. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries: American Interstate Insurance Company (AIIC) and its insurance subsidiaries, Silver Oak Casualty, Inc. (SOCI) and American Interstate Insurance Company of Texas (AIICTX), Amerisafe Risk Services, Inc. (RISK) and Amerisafe General Agency, Inc. (AGAI). AIIC and SOCI are property and casualty insurance companies organized under the laws of the state of Nebraska. AIICTX is a property and casualty insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Texas. RISK, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is a claims and safety service company currently servicing only affiliated insurance companies. AGAI, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is a general agent for the Company. AGAI sells insurance, which is underwritten by AIIC, SOCI and AIICTX, as well as by nonaffiliated insurance carriers.

The terms “AMERISAFE,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to AMERISAFE, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, as the context requires.

The Company provides workers’ compensation insurance for small to mid-sized employers engaged in hazardous industries, principally construction, trucking, logging and lumber, agriculture, manufacturing, telecommunications, and maritime. Assets and revenues of AIIC and its subsidiaries represent at least 95% of comparable consolidated amounts of the Company for each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and therefore do not include all information and footnotes to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year. The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. Some of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and, consequently, actual results in future periods might differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. The reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods.

Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has not adopted any new accounting guidance in 2025.

Prospective Accounting Guidance

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, that requires expanded income tax disclosures, including the disaggregation of existing disclosures related to the tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Early adoption of the new standard is permitted; however, we have not elected to early adopt the standard. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. We have analyzed the impacts and will provide the required disclosures upon adoption.

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, which requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The guidance is effective for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2027, and interim reporting periods beginning in 2028. Early adoption of the new standard is permitted; however, we have not elected to early adopt the standard. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. We are evaluating the impact of this disclosure-only requirement.

Note 2. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Stock Options

As of March 31, 2025, the Company has three equity incentive plans: the AMERISAFE Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Plan (the Restricted Stock Plan), the AMERISAFE 2012 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2012 Incentive Plan) and the 2022 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2022 Incentive Plan). In connection with the approval of the 2022 Incentive Plan by the Company’s shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders in June 2022, no further grants will be made under the 2012 Incentive Plan. All grants made under the 2012 Incentive Plan will continue in effect, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2012 Incentive Plan. See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information regarding the Company’s incentive plans.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company issued no shares of common stock related to the equity incentive plans.

The Company had no stock options outstanding as of March 31, 2025.

The Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $1.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and $0.7 million in the same period in 2024.

Note 3. Earnings Per Share

The Company computes earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company has no participating unvested common shares which contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends and applies the treasury stock method in computing basic and diluted earnings per share.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The diluted EPS calculation includes potential common shares assumed issued under the treasury stock method, which reflects the potential dilution that would occur if any restricted stock or RSUs vest.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company has established an allowance for credit losses on 401 held-to-maturity securities totaling $0.1 million. Most of those securities were issued by states and political subdivisions (387 securities) and corporate bonds (13 securities).

13

The Company has no allowance for credit losses on investments classified as available-for-sale for the period ended March 31, 2025.

The credit rating used for held-to-maturity fixed income securities is the rating for each security as published by Moody’s, Standard and Poor's, and Fitch to determine the probability of default. If there are two ratings, the lower rating is used. If there are three ratings, the median rating is used. If there is one rating, that rating is used. For corporate fixed income securities (given a rating), the probability of default comes from Moody’s annual study of corporate bond defaults published each February. The maximum maturity using the default rate is 20 years (any maturity greater than 20 years will use the 20-year rate). For municipal fixed income securities (given a rating), the probability of default comes from Moody’s study of municipal bond defaul ts published annually.

The calculation of the credit loss allowance takes the amortized cost of the fixed income security and assumes default and recovery based on the average recovery rates from the Moody’s default studies. The amortized cost of the security, plus any accrued interest, minus the amount recovered, is the estimated full amount the Company could lose in a default scenario. This amount is then multiplied by the probability of default to determine the allowance for credit loss. The lower the security is rated, the higher likelihood of default, and therefore a higher allowance for credit loss. The longer to the maturity date of a security, the higher the default risk.

The table below presents the amortized cost of held-to-maturity securities aggregated by credit quality indicator as of March 31, 2025.

Net realized gains in the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were immaterial. Net realized losses in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 were $0.2 million resulting from the sale of fixed maturity securities classified as available-for-sale.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized through income $3.2 million of net unrealized losses on equity securities compared to $4.8 million of net unrealized gains on equity securities for the same period in 2024.

Investment income is recognized as it is earned. The discount or premium on fixed maturity securities is amortized using the “constant yield” method. Anticipated prepayments, where applicable, are considered when determining the amortization of premiums or discounts. Realized investment gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method.

The Company invests in Exchange Traded Funds with the objective of diversifying portfolio holdings.

Note 5. Income Taxes

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, we provide for the recognition and measurement of deferred income tax benefits based on the likelihood of their realization in future years. As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, we had no valuation allowance against its deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

Income tax expense from operations is different from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax statutory rate of 21% to income before income taxes primarily due to the impact of tax-exempt investment income and state income tax accruals.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. There were no uncertain tax positions for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Tax years 2021 through 2024 are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities.

Note 6. Loss Reserves

We record reserves for estimated losses under insurance policies that we write and for loss adjustment expenses related to the investigation and settlement of policy claims. Our reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses represent the estimated cost of all reported and unreported loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred and unpaid as of a given point in time. The reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses are estimated using individual case-basis valuations, statistical analyses and estimates based upon experience for unreported claims and their associated loss and loss adjustment expenses. Such estimates may be more or less than the amounts ultimately paid when the claims are settled. The estimates are subject to the effects of trends in loss severity and frequency. Although considerable variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes that the reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses are adequate. The estimates are continually reviewed internally and periodically evaluated with our independent actuary. Adjustments are made as experience develops and new information becomes known. Any such adjustments are included in income from current operations. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information regarding our loss and loss adjustment expense development.

The following table provides the Company’s liability for unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses, net of related amounts recoverable from reinsurers, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Prior accident years |  |  | 47,225 |  |  |  | 41,522 |
Total paid |  |  | 49,262 |  |  |  | 43,659 |
Net balance, end of period |  |  | 529,464 |  |  |  | 550,580 |
Add amounts recoverable from reinsurers on unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses |  |  | 110,501 |  |  |  | 117,479 |
Balance, end of period |  | $ | 639,965 |  |  | $ | 668,059 |

The foregoing reconciliation reflects favorable development of the net reserves at March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024. The favorable development reduced loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred by $8.7 million and $8.6 million in first quarter 2025 and 2024, respectively. The revisions to the Company’s reserves reflect new information gained by claims adjusters in the normal course of adjusting claims and is reflected in the financial statements when the information becomes available. It is typical for more serious claims to take several years or longer to settle and the Company continually revises estimates as more information about claimants’ medical conditions and potential disability becomes known and the claims get closer to being settled. Multiple factors can cause loss development both unfavorable and favorable. The favorable loss development we experienced across accident years was largely due to two factors: (1) lower than expected severity of injuries in these accident years compared to our original and revised estimates; and (2) favorable case reserve development from closed claims and claims where the worker had reached maximum medical improvement. We believe the favorable case reserve development resulted primarily from an intensive claims management focus with the Company actively seeking to settle claims.

Note 7. Comprehensive Income and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive income includes net income plus unrealized gains and losses on our available-for-sale investment securities, net of tax. In reporting comprehensive income on a net basis in the statements of comprehensive income, we used a 21% tax rate in 2025 and 2024. The difference between net income as reported and comprehensive income was due primarily to changes in unrealized gains and losses, net of tax on available-for-sale debt securities.

The following table illustrates the changes in the balance of each component of accumulated other comprehensive loss for each period presented in the interim financial statements.

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | March 31, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
|  | (in thousands) |
Balance, beginning of period |  | $ | (8,875 | ) |  | $ | (7,194 | )

Balance, end of period |  | $ | (7,269 | ) |  | $ | (8,740 | )

The sale or credit loss allowance adjustment of an available-for-sale security results in amounts being reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to current period net income. The effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive loss by the respective line items of net income are presented in the following table.

Note 8. Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The Company carries available-for-sale securities and equity securities at fair value in our consolidated financial statements and determines fair value measurements and disclosure in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Topic 820, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard defines fair value, describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

16

Fair value is defined in ASC Topic 820 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. Fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability and, therefore, represents an exit price, not an entry price. Fair value is the exit price in the principal market (or, if lacking a principal market, the most advantageous market) in which the reporting entity would transact. Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and, as such, is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The exit price objective of a fair value measurement applies regardless of the reporting entity’s intent and/or ability to sell the asset or transfer the liability at the measurement date.

ASC Topic 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present value amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset, also known as current replacement cost. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value are to be consistently applied.

In ASC Topic 820, inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable:

•
Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity.
•
Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Valuation techniques used to measure fair value are intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation techniques into the following three levels:

•
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
•
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
•
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are to be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters.

The fair values of the Company’s investments are based upon prices provided by an independent pricing service. The Company has reviewed these prices for reasonableness and has not adjusted any prices received from the independent provider. Securities reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs represent assets whose fair value is determined based upon observable unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets in active markets. Securities reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs represent assets whose fair value is determined using observable market information such as previous day trade prices, quotes from less active markets or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

At March 31, 2025, assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

The Company determines fair value amounts for financial instruments using available third-party market information. When such information is not available, the Company determines the fair value amounts using appropriate valuation methodologies. Nonfinancial instruments such as real estate, property and equipment, deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred income taxes and loss and loss adjustment expense reserves are excluded from the fair value disclosure.

Cash and Cash Equivalents —The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values, which are characterized as Level 1 assets.

Investments —The fair values for fixed maturity and equity securities are based on prices obtained from an independent pricing service. Equity and treasury securities are characterized as Level 1 assets, as their fair values are based on quoted prices in active markets. Fixed maturity securities, other than treasury securities, are characterized as Level 2 assets, as their fair values are determined using observable market inputs.

Short Term Investments —The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for these financial instruments approximate their fair values. These securities are characterized as Level 2 assets in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and corresponding fair values for financial instruments.

Note 9. Treasury Stock

The Company’s Board of Directors (the Board) initiated a share repurchase program in February 2010. In October 2016, the Board reauthorized this program with a limit of $25.0 million with no expiration date. As of March 31, 2025, $5.3 million was available for future repurchases. Repurchases of shares may be made pursuant to pre-established trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no shares were purchased.

Note 1 0. Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a single reportable segment, Insurance Operations, through our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Profits, losses and assets are evaluated on a consolidated basis.

We are a specialty provider of workers’ compensation insurance focused on small to mid-sized employers engaged in high hazard industries. Our Insurance Operations segment derives premium revenues from the sales of workers’ compensation insurance through independent agencies, including retail and wholesale brokers and agents. The accounting policies of the Insurance Operations are the same as those described in the "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Two of the key financial measures used to evaluate our performance are return on average equity and growth in book value per share. We calculate return on average equity by dividing annual net income by the average of annual shareholders’ equity. We calculate book value per share by dividing ending shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding.

The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

The Company does not have intra-entity sales or asset transfers.

The Company is a monoline insurance company operating solely within the U.S. and does no t have revenue from transactions with a single policyholder accounting for 10% or more of its revenues.

19

There are no differences from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 in the basis of segmentation or in the basis of measurement of segment profit or loss.

Note 11. Subsequent Events

On April 29, 2025, the Board declared a regular cash dividend of $0.39 per share, payable on June 20, 2025 to shareholders of record as of June 13, 2025. The Board considers the declaration and payment of a regular cash dividend each calendar quarter and any such declaration and payment of dividends is at the discretion of the Board.

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

The financial and business analysis below provides information which the Company believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, together with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. This discussion includes forward-looking statements that are not guarantees of future performance and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. See “Forward-Looking Statements” in Part I above for further discussion.

Business Overview

AMERISAFE is a holding company that markets and underwrites workers’ compensation insurance through its insurance subsidiaries. Workers’ compensation insurance covers statutorily prescribed benefits that employers are obligated to provide to their employees who are injured in the course and scope of their employment. Our business strategy is focused on providing this coverage to small to mid-sized employers engaged in hazardous industries, principally construction, trucking, logging and lumber, agriculture, manufacturing, maritime, and telecommunications. Employers engaged in hazardous industries typically pay substantially higher than average rates for workers’ compensation insurance compared to employers in other industries, as measured per payroll dollar. These higher premium rates are due to the nature of the work performed and the inherent workplace danger of our target employers. Hazardous industry employers also tend to have less frequent but more severe claims as compared to employers in other industries due to the nature of their businesses. We provide proactive safety reviews of most employers’ workplaces. These safety reviews are a vital component of our underwriting process and are aimed at promoting safer workplaces. We utilize intensive claims management practices that we believe permit us to effectively manage the overall cost of our claims. In addition, our audit services ensure that our policyholders pay the appropriate premiums required under the terms of their policies and enable us to monitor payroll patterns that cause underwriting, safety or fraud concerns. We believe that the higher premiums typically paid by our policyholders, together with our disciplined underwriting and safety, claims and audit services, provide us with the opportunity to earn attractive returns for our shareholders.

We actively market our insurance in 27 states through independent agencies (including retail and wholesale brokers and agents), as well as through our wholly owned insurance agency subsidiary. We are also licensed in an additional 20 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Critical Accounting Policies

Understanding our accounting policies is key to understanding our financial statements. Management considers some of these policies to be very important to the presentation of our financial results because they require us to make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Some of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and, consequently, actual results in future periods might differ from these estimates.

Management believes that the most critical accounting policies relate to the reporting of reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses, including losses that have occurred but have not been reported prior to the reporting date, amounts recoverable from reinsurers, premiums receivable, assessments, deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred income taxes, credit losses on investment securities, and share-based compensation. These critical accounting policies are more fully described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(1)
The net combined ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred, underwriting and certain other operating costs, commissions, salaries and benefits, and policyholder dividends by net premiums earned in the current period.
(2)
Return on average equity is calculated by dividing the annualized net income by the average shareholders’ equity for the applicable period. Net unrealized losses on equity securities contributed to the lower quarterly return on average equity.
(3)
Book value per share is calculated by dividing shareholders’ equity by the total outstanding shares of our common stock as of the end of the reported period.

Consolidated Results of Operations for Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Compared to March 31, 2024

Gross Premiums Written. Gross premiums written for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were $83.8 million, compared to $80.1 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of 4.6%. The increase was attributable to a $5.1 million increase in annual premiums on voluntary policies written during the period partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in premiums resulting from payroll audits and related premium adjustments for policies written in previous quarters.

Net Premiums Written. Net premiums written for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were $79.6 million, compared to $76.1 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of 4.5%. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in gross premiums written. As a percentage of gross premiums earned, ceded premiums were 5.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to 5.4% for the same period in 2024. The increase in ceded premiums as a percentage of gross premiums earned is a result of a change in our 2025 reinsurance treaties. For additional information, see Item 1, “Business—Reinsurance” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Net Premiums Earned. Net premiums earned for the first quarter of 2025 were $68.9 million, compared to $68.4 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of 0.6%. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in net premiums written during the reported period.

22

Net Investment Income. Net investment income for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $6.7 million, compared to $7.4 million for the same period in 2024, a decrease of 9.7%. The decrease was due to lower average invested asset balances in the reported period compared to the prior year. Average invested assets, including cash and cash equivalents, were $835.5 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to $902.9 million for the same period in 2024, a decrease of 7.5%. The pre-tax investment yield on our investment portfolio was 3.2% per annum during the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to 3.3% per annum during the same period in 2024. The tax-equivalent yield on our investment portfolio was 3.8% per annum for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and 3.7% for the same period in 2024. The tax-equivalent yield is calculated using the effective interest rate and the appropriate marginal tax rate.

Net Realized Gains (Losses) on Investments. Net realized gains on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were immaterial compared to net realized losses of $0.2 million for the same period in 2024. Net realized losses in the first quarter of 2024 were mostly attributable to sales of fixed maturity securities classified as available-for-sale.

Net Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Equity Securities. Net unrealized losses on our equity securities was $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 compared to net unrealized gains of $4.8 million for the same period in 2024.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses Incurred. Loss and loss adjustment expenses (LAE) incurred totaled $40.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $40.0 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $0.2 million, or 0.4%. The current accident year loss and LAE incurred were $48.9 million compared to $48.6 million for the same period in 2024. Our initial estimate of the loss and LAE ratio for accident year 2025 remains unchanged at 71.0% of net premiums earned, consistent with the estimate initially set for accident year 2024, and is based on long-term claim frequency and severity trends, as well as medical inflation. We recorded favorable prior accident year development of $8.7 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to favorable prior accident year development of $8.6 million in the same period of 2024, as further discussed below in “Prior Year Development.” Our net loss ratio was 58.3% in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 58.4% for the same period of 2024.

Underwriting and Certain Other Operating Costs, Commissions and Salaries and Benefits. Underwriting and certain other operating costs, commissions and salaries and benefits for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 were $20.6 million, compared to $18.7 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in insurance related assessments, a $0.8 million increase in compensation expense and a $0.3 million increase in accounts receivable writeoffs. These increases were partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in profit sharing reinsurance commission. Our expense ratio was 29.9% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to 27.3% in the first quarter of 2024.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $2.3 million, compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2024. The effective tax rate for the Company for quarter ended March 31, 2025 was 20.2% compared to 18.4% in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in the effective tax rate was due to a lower proportion of income from tax-exempt investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of operating funds are premiums, investment income and proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. Our primary uses of operating funds include payments of claims and operating expenses. Currently, we pay claims using cash flow from operations and invest the remaining funds.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which represented a $9.3 million decrease from $7.5 million in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This decrease in operating cash flow was due to a $10.3 million increase in losses paid, a $1.4 million decrease in net investment income, and a $0.8 million decrease in reinsurance recoveries. Partially offsetting these decreases were a $2.8 million increase in premium collections and a $0.4 million decrease in underwriting expenses paid.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $9.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to net cash used in investment activities of $5.7 million for the same period in 2024. Cash provided by sales and maturities of investments totaled $20.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $36.9 million for the same period in 2024. A total of $10.5 million in cash was used to purchase investments in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $41.9 million in purchases for the same period in 2024. There were immaterial purchases of property and equipment in the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2024.

Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $7.4 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $7.1 million for the same period in 2024. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, $7.4 million of cash was used for dividends paid to shareholders compared to $7.1 million in the same period of 2024.

Investment Portfolio

The carrying value of our investment portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents, totaled $825.8 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $832.8 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of 0.8%. Purchases of fixed maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity at the time of purchase based on the individual security. The Company has the ability and positive intent to hold certain investments until maturity. Therefore, fixed maturity securities classified as held-to-maturity, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Securities, are recorded at amortized cost net of allowance for credit losses. Our equity securities and fixed maturity securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value.

The composition of our investment portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents, as of March 31, 2025, is shown in the following table:

|  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Percentage of Portfolio |
|  | (in thousands) |
Fixed maturity securities—held-to-maturity: |  |  |  |  |  |
States and political subdivisions |  | $ | 359,997 |  |  |  | 43.6 | %
Corporate bonds |  |  | 28,039 |  |  |  | 3.4 | %
U.S. agency-based mortgage-backed securities |  |  | 2,696 |  |  |  | 0.3 | %

Corporate bonds |  |  | 140,910 |  |  |  | 17.1 | %
U.S. agency-based mortgage-backed securities |  |  | 4,003 |  |  |  | 0.5 | %
U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies |  |  | 14,147 |  |  |  | 1.7 | %
Total fixed maturity securities—available-for-sale |  |  | 314,726 |  |  |  | 38.2 | %
Equity securities |  |  | 55,476 |  |  |  | 6.7 | %
Short-term investments |  |  | 11,569 |  |  |  | 1.4 | %
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 44,753 |  |  |  | 5.4 | %
Total investments, including cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 825,765 |  |  |  | 100.0 | %

Our debt securities classified as available-for-sale are “marked to market” as of the end of each calendar quarter. As of that date, unrealized gains and losses that are not credit related are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Any available-for-sale credit related losses would be recognized as a credit loss allowance on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to earnings, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Both the credit loss allowance and adjustment to net income can be reversed if conditions change.

For our debt securities classified as held-to-maturity, non-credit related unrecognized gains and losses are not recorded in the financial statements until realized. Effective upon the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses, management is required to estimate held-to-maturity expected credit related losses and recognize a credit loss allowance on the balance sheet with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Subsequent adjustments to the estimated expected credit related losses are recognized through earnings within the category “provision for investment related credit loss expense (benefit)”, and adjustments to the credit loss allowance.

Prior Year Development

The Company recorded favorable prior accident year development of $8.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. The table below sets forth the favorable development for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 for accident years 2020 through 2024 and, collectively, for all accident years prior to 2020.

The table below sets forth the number of open claims as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, and the number of claims reported and closed during the three months then ended.

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | March 31, |
|  | 2025 |  |  | 2024 |
Open claims at beginning of period |  |  | 3,798 |  |  |  | 4,003 |
Claims reported |  |  | 906 |  |  |  | 900 |
Claims closed |  |  | (864 | ) |  |  | (1,091 | )
Open claims at end of period |  |  | 3,840 |  |  |  | 3,812 |

There were 3,840 open claims at March 31, 2025, compared to 3,812 at March 31, 2024, representing an increase of 28 open claims. At March 31, 2025, our incurred amounts for certain accident years, primarily accident years 2020 and 2021, developed more favorably than management previously expected. The revisions to the Company’s reserves reflect new information gained by claims adjusters in the normal course of adjusting claims and is reflected in the Company's financial statements when the information becomes available. It is typical for more serious claims to take several years or longer to settle and the Company continually revises estimates as more information about claimants’ medical conditions and potential disability becomes known and the claims get closer to being settled. Multiple factors can cause both favorable and unfavorable loss development. The favorable loss development we experienced across accident years was largely due to favorable case reserve development from closed claims and claims where the worker had reached maximum medical improvement.

The assumptions we used in establishing our reserves were based on our historical claims data. However, as of March 31, 2025, actual results for certain accident years have been better than our assumptions would have predicted. We do not presently intend to modify our assumptions for establishing reserves in light of recent results. However, if actual results for current and future accident years are consistent with, or different than, our results in these recent accident years, our historical claims data will reflect this change and, over time, will impact the reserves we establish for future claims.

Our reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses are inherently uncertain and our focus on providing workers’ compensation insurance to employers engaged in hazardous industries generally results in us receiving relatively fewer but more severe claims than many other workers’ compensation insurance companies. As a result of this focus on higher severity, lower frequency business, our reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses may have greater volatility than other workers’ compensation insurance companies. For additional information, see Item 1, “Business—Loss Reserves” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitati ve Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk is the risk of potential economic loss principally arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments. The major components of market risk affecting us are credit risk, interest rate risk, and equity price risk. We currently have no exposure to foreign currency risk.

Since December 31, 2024, there have been no material changes in the quantitative or qualitative aspect of our market risk profile. For additional information regarding the Company’s exposure to certain market risks, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the SEC. We note that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving the stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Because of inherent limitations, management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to errors or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any within the Company, have been detected.

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
