Navigators returns to profitability in Q2

| August 5, 2011 | 0 Comments

The Navigators Group, Inc. has reported that in the second quarter of 2011 it made a net income of $9.5m, equating to $0.6 per diluted share.

This is precisely half the $19m ($1.16 per diluted share) the firm made in the corresponding period last year.

However, it is a sharp return to profitability after incurring a Q1 2011 net loss of $7.9m ($0.5 per diluted share), largely due to natural disasters and energy losses.

Quarterly gross written premiums were $278.7m, up 9.9%, and net written premiums rose by 11.1% to $183.4m.

In the first six months of the year Navigators made a net income of $1.6m ($0.1 per diluted share), far less than the $36m ($2.16 per diluted share) it made during the first half of 2010.

Biannual gross written premiums and net written premiums were up 9.8% to $575m and up 6.2% to $376.4m, respectively.
