Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  FPIC Insurance Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

(in thousands, except where noted)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements represent the consolidation of FPIC Insurance Group, Inc. (“FPIC”) and all majority owned and controlled subsidiaries. The statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant transactions between the parent and consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Reference is made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which includes information necessary for understanding our businesses and financial statement presentations. In particular, our significant accounting policies are presented in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in that report.

These consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited. These statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair statement of results for interim periods. Certain prior period amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The results reported in these consolidated interim financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. For example, the timing and magnitude of claim losses incurred by our insurance subsidiaries due to the estimation process inherent in determining the liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) can be relatively more significant to results of interim periods than to results for a full year. Also, variations in the amount and timing of realized investment gains and losses could cause significant variations in periodic net income.

2. Share-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain three share-based compensation plans: (i) a plan for officers and key employees (the “Omnibus Plan”); (ii) a plan for non-employee directors (the “Director Plan”); and (iii) an employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”).

The Omnibus Plan:

Under the Omnibus Plan, we may issue incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock upon approval by the Board of Directors.The option price of an incentive stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of shares on the grant date. The option price of a non-qualified option may not be less than 50% of the fair market value of shares on the grant date. Restricted stock grants entitle the holder to shares of common stock as the award vests. Awards made under the Omnibus Plan generally vest over a three-year period, which represents the requisite service period for such awards. Under the plan, individuals that receive a restricted common stock award are permitted to redeem an adequate number of shares from such award upon vesting to satisfy any tax withholding liability.

The Director Plan:

Under the Director Plan, we may issue non-qualified stock options and restricted stock upon approval by the Board of Directors. Stock option grants made under the Director Plan are at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date. Shares of restricted stock become unrestricted as the awards vest.

The Board of Directors authorized each nonemployee member of the Board of Directors to receive annual equity-based compensation to be awarded as of the date of the annual shareholders meeting, pursuant to the Director Plan, in the form of 1,000 shares of restricted common stock, which will fully vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant, which represents the requisite service period for such awards.

Form 10-Q: 5

 The Board of Directors further authorized each new nonemployee member of the Board of Directors to receive, upon initial election to the Board of Directors, an initial award of 1,000 shares of restricted common stock, which will fully vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant, awarded pursuant to the Director Plan.

 The Board of Directors also authorized nonemployee members of the Board of Directors of First Professionals Insurance Company, Inc. who are not also members of the Board of Directors of FPIC to receive annual equity-based compensation to be awarded as of the date of the annual shareholders meeting, pursuant to the Director Plan, in the form of 1,000 shares of restricted common stock, which will fully vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant.

The ESPP:

We offer an ESPP to eligible employees, including executive officers. Under the terms of the ESPP, employees are allowed to purchase FPIC’s common stock at 85% of the market value on the first or last day of the offering period, whichever is lower. The number of shares of FPIC common stock issued in connection with the ESPP was 15,501 for the plan year ended December 31, 2005.

The following table presents the number of shares authorized as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 for issuance in connection with our share-based compensation plans.

	March 31, 2006		December 31, 2005
The Omnibus Plan		658,872		728,002
The Director Plan		239,801		239,801
The ESPP		86,977		86,977
Shares authorized for issuance		985,650		1,054,780

Accounting for Share-Based Compensation:

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. On January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of FAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method. Prior period financial statements have not been restated to reflect fair value share-based compensation expense. FAS No. 123(R) focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions and requires entities to recognize compensation expense for awards of equity instruments to employees based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with limited exceptions). FAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as prescribed under the prior accounting rules. This requirement reduces net operating cash flows and increases net financing cash flows in periods after adoption. Total cash flow remains unchanged from what would have been reported under prior accounting rules. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded additional financing cash flows of $765 as a result of adopting FAS No. 123(R).

Prior to the adoption of FAS No. 123(R), we followed the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB No. 25 to account for our employee stock options. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized in connection with the issuance of stock options under our share-based compensation plans. However, compensation expense was recognized in connection with the issuance of restricted stock.

Form 10-Q: 6

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements  FPIC Insurance Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

(in thousands, except where noted)

 Beginning January 1, 2006, we recognized share-based compensation expense for (i) all share-based payments granted prior to, but not vested as of, January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value originally estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS No. 123 and (ii) all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS No. 123(R). We recognize share-based compensation expense under FAS No. 123(R) ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the expected vesting period. In addition, pursuant to FAS No. 123(R), we are required to estimate the amount of expected forfeitures when calculating share-based compensation costs, instead of accounting for forfeitures as incurred, which was allowed under previous guidance. As of January 1, 2006, the cumulative effect of adopting the estimated forfeiture method was not significant as the amount related solely to our January 2005 restricted stock awards and our financial statements already reflected an appropriate adjustment to compensation expense for forfeitures.

We use historical data and projections to estimate expected employee behaviors related to stock option exercises and forfeitures. We estimate the fair value of each stock award on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model incorporating the assumptions noted in the following table. Stock valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimate. Expected volatility and dividends are based on historical factors related to our common stock. Expected term represents the estimated weighted-average time between grant and employee exercise. The risk-free rate is based on U.S. Treasury rates appropriate for the expected term.

______________

⁽¹⁾ For the three months ended March 31, 2006, 189 outstanding stock options were excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share because the sum of the hypothetical amount of future proceeds from the exercise price, unrecorded compensation, and tax benefits to be credited to additional paid-in capital for all grants of stock options were higher than the average price of the common shares, and therefore were antidilutive.

⁽²⁾ For the three months ended March 31, 2005, 60 outstanding stock options were excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share because the exercise prices of the stock options were higher than the average price of the common shares, and therefore were antidilutive.

6. Reinsurance

The effects of ceded reinsurance on premiums written, premiums earned, and losses and LAE incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are presented in the table below.

	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2006						March 31, 2005
	Written			Earned			Written			Earned
Direct and assumed premiums	$	75,790			66,693			84,138			68,097
Ceded premiums		(8,547	)		(7,815	)		(10,025	)		(17,902	)
Net premiums	$	67,243			58,878			74,113			50,195
	Three Months Ended
		March 31, 2006			March 31, 2005
Losses and LAE incurred	$	48,238			51,536
Reinsurance recoveries		(5,232	)		(12,965	)
Net losses and LAE incurred	$	43,006			38,571

We renewed our excess of loss reinsurance program, effective January 1, 2006.  The 2006 agreement does not contain the loss-corridor discussed below that was part of the 2005 agreement. In addition, our reinsurance premium rate decreased approximately 5% for 2006 from 2005. Other than the removal of the loss-corridor and the reduced rate, the structure and coverage of such agreement is generally similar to that of our 2005 excess of loss reinsurance program.

As a result of the loss-corridor within the 2005 agreement, we retain losses incurred in the excess layers from the point at which such losses reach 80% of ceded reinsurance premium and up to 110% of the ceded reinsurance premium, at which point such losses become subject to the reinsurance once again. We estimate that the maximum losses that would be retained to be approximately $9.0 million, assuming we were to realize or surpass the entire loss-corridor.

7. Investments

Realized investment gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific identification. Declines in the fair value of securities considered to be other-than-temporary, if any, are recorded as realized losses in the consolidated statements of income. Data with respect to fixed maturities available for sale are presented in the tables below.

	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2006			March 31, 2005
Proceeds from sales and maturities	$	21,968			38,141
Gross realized gains on sales	$	189			360
Gross realized losses on sales	$	(12	)		(224	)

Net realized investment gains on all investments for the three months ended March 31, 2006 totaled $185, which includes gains of $8 related to investment securities held in our deferred compensation plan.

(in thousands, except where noted)

	As of			As of
	March 31,			December 31,
	2006			2005
Amortized cost of investments in fixed maturity securities available for sale	$	605,150			624,932
Gross unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities available for sale	$	1,419			2,413
Gross unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities available for sale	$	(14,235	)		(9,629	)

 The unrealized losses as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were primarily attributable to the impact of increases in interest rates on our fixed income investment portfolio. We have the intent and ability to hold these securities to recover their value, which may be until their respective maturity dates. Therefore, we do not consider any of the securities carried in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 to be other-than-temporarily impaired. During the fourth quarter of 2005, we did recognize an other-than-temporary impairment charge related to certain of our corporate securities, which reduced the cost basis of those securities and reclassified the unrealized loss from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net realized investment losses.

8. Employee Benefit Plans

The components of the actuarially computed net periodic pension cost for our two defined benefit plans, our excess benefit plan and our supplemental executive retirement plan for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are summarized in the table below.

	Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2006			March 31, 2005
Service cost of benefits earned during the period	$	723			628
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation		452			377
Expected return on plan assets		(389	)		(297	)
Amortization of unrecognized loss		220			232
Amortization of unrecognized prior service cost		54			27
Amortization of transition obligation		8			—
Net periodic pension cost	$	1,068			967

 We contributed $2,065 to our employee post-retirement plans during the three months ended March 31, 2006. We currently anticipate contributing an additional $2,928 to our employee post-retirement plans during the remainder of 2006 for total contributions of $4,993.

 Reference is made to Note 15, Employee Benefit Plans, to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which includes additional information regarding our employee benefit plans.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is determined to be probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated.

Our insurance subsidiaries are also subject to assessment by the financial guaranty associations in the states in which they conduct business for the provision of funds necessary for the settlement of covered claims under certain policies of insolvent insurers. Generally, these associations can assess member insurers on the basis of written premiums in their particular states.

In addition, our insurance subsidiaries may become subject to claims for extra-contractual obligations or risks in excess of policy limits in connection with their insurance claims. These claims are sometimes referred to as “bad faith” actions as it is alleged that the insurance company acted in bad faith in the administration of a claim against an insured. Bad faith actions are infrequent and generally occur in instances where a jury verdict exceeds the insured’s policy limits. Under such circumstances, it is routinely alleged that the insurance company failed to negotiate a settlement of a claim in good faith within the insured’s policy limit. We have discontinued our reinsurance for bad faith claims, other than coverage provided as part of our primary excess of loss program. An award for a bad faith claim against one of our subsidiaries in excess of the applicable reinsurance could have an adverse affect on our results of operations and financial condition.We have evaluated such exposures as of March 31, 2006, and believe our position and defenses are meritorious. However, there can be no absolute assurance as to the outcome of such exposures.

In addition to standard assessments, the Florida and Missouri legislatures may also levy special assessments to settle claims caused by certain catastrophic losses. No special assessments were made in 2004, 2005 or the first three months of 2006. In addition, we could become subject to additional assessments in the future as a result of losses caused by catastrophic losses. Medical malpractice policies are exempt from assessment by the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund through May 31, 2007.

For commitments and contingencies associated with the disposition of our former third party administration (“TPA”) segment, refer to Note 19, Discontinued Operations,to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Management agreement between Administrators For The Professions, Inc. (“AFP”) and Physicians’ Reciprocal Insurers (“PRI”)

For information about the management agreement between AFP and PRI, see Note 5, Related Party Transactions, to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. We have also issued two irrevocable letters of credit in the amount of $500,000 as collateral under the operating leases for the buildings occupied by AFP in Manhasset and Lake Success, New York.

Business Overview

Through our insurance and insurance management segments, we operate in the medical professional liability (“MPL”) insurance sector of the property and casualty insurance industry as both an insurance carrier, which bears underwriting risks, and as an insurance management company, which earns fees for its services. Operating under these two separate and distinct business models allows us to participate selectively in diverse opportunities in the complex MPL insurance sector. We believe that this approach is well suited to meet our financial objectives. Our former TPA segment provided administrative and claims management services to employers, primarily in Florida, that maintained group accident and health, workers’ compensation, liability and property self insurance plans. Our TPA segment was discontinued in 2005 in connection with the sale of EMI.

Our primary insurance products provide protection for physicians, dentists and other health care providers as individual practitioners or as members of practice groups. Our insurance protects policyholders against losses arising from professional liability claims and the related defense costs with respect to injuries alleged to have been caused by medical error or malpractice. Optional coverage is available for professional corporations under which physicians or dentists practice. Our management products include insurance management services for the reciprocal insurance companies we manage, such as marketing, underwriting and claims administration. We also provide reinsurance brokerage services for the reciprocal companies we manage and our insurance subsidiaries.

We believe we are the fourth largest provider of MPL insurance and insurance management services in the United States, with $575 million of direct premiums written or under management for the year ended December 31, 2004, based on data published by A.M. Best Company (“A.M. Best”). We have chosen to focus on selected markets where we believe we have advantages in terms of our market knowledge, well-established reputation, significant market presence and resources. Through our insurance subsidiaries, we are the largest provider of MPL insurance in Florida, and we manage the second largest provider of MPL insurance in New York. Based on 2004 premium data published by A.M. Best, New York is the largest market for MPL insurance in the United States, and Florida is the third largest market.

Recent Trends and Other Developments - First Quarter 2006

— Our consolidated income from continuing operations for the first three months of 2006 increased 43% compared with the same period in the prior year.

— We achieved a 16% return on average equity for the trailing 12 months.

—   Net premiums earned in our insurance underwriting segment for the first three months of 2006 increased 17% compared with the same period in the prior year as a result of reduction in reinsurance and pricing improvements.

—   Our net premiums written for the first three months of 2006 declined 9% compared with the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a 3% decline in professional liability policyholders and changes in business mix.

—   Our combined ratio improved to 90% as result of favorable loss experience; frequency and severity of claims continued to be within our expectations and positively affected by our underwriting and claims approach.

—   Net investment income increased 25% for the first three months of 2006 compared with the same period in 2005 as a result of portfolio growth and higher overall yield.

—   Shareholders’ equity and statutory surplus increased as of March 31, 2006 compared to the balances as of December 31, 2005 and were the highest in FPIC’s history.

— We renewed our primary reinsurance program with improved terms and a 5% overall rate reduction.

—   We incurred share-based compensation costs of $0.6 million pre-tax, of which $0.3 million was the result of the adoption of FAS No. 123(R), effective January 1, 2006. The share-based compensation costs recognized in other underwriting expenses and insurance management expenses were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

—   During the quarter, we repurchased 72,040 shares of FPIC common stock; we also settled 33,550 shares that had a trade date during December 2005; 194,732 shares remain available for repurchase under the current stock repurchase program.

 Effective May 9, 2006, the management agreement between our subsidiary, AFP, and PRI was extended through December 31, 2011.

Consolidated Statements of Income:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2005

Income from continuing operations was $9.5 million, or $0.88 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of 43% and 42%, respectively, compared with $6.6 million, or $0.62 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in income from continuing operations is primarily the result of improvement in our underwriting margin and higher net investment income at our insurance segment.

Net income was $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, or $0.88 per diluted common share, an increase of 39% and 38%, respectively, compared with $6.8 million, or $0.64 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Included in net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was income from discontinued operations of $0.2 million. Other changes in net income are due to the factors discussed in the paragraph above with regard to income from continuing operations.

Consolidated revenueswere $77.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $10.7 million, or 16%, from $67.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in consolidated revenues is due to higher net premiums earned, primarily due to lower reinsurance ceded, and increases in insurance management fees and net investment income. Insurance management fees increased with the corresponding increase in direct premiums written by PRI and Pennsylvania Physicians’ Reciprocal Insurers (“PaPRI”), the companies we manage, and the increase in net investment income reflects the growth in our cash and invested assets and a higher overall yield. Partially offsetting the growth in consolidated revenues was a decline in commission income at our insurance management segment.

Consolidated expenseswere $63.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $6.5 million, or 11%, from $57.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in consolidated expenses is mainly the result of the elimination of cessions under the Hannover Re net account quota share agreement, effective June 30, 2004, and its impact on net losses and LAE as related to net premiums earned, and on other underwriting expenses, which previously reflected ceding commissions under the agreement. Insurance management expenses also increased as a result of additional infrastructure investments necessary to support growth in the segment in recent years.

Insurance Segment Results and Selected Other Information

Our insurance segment is made up primarily of our four insurance subsidiaries. Holding company operations are also included in the insurance segment due to the segment’s size and prominence and the substantial attention devoted to the segment.

______________

⁽¹⁾ Professional liability policyholders (excluding fronting arrangements) includes policyholders whose individual insurance is 90% reinsured under facultative reinsurance agreements. For the period ended March 31, 2005, 106 such policyholders previously reported under fronting arrangements have been reclassified to professional liability policyholders.

Insurance segment net incomeincreased primarily due to higher revenues and improvement in our underwriting margin. The improvement in our underwriting margin primarily reflects rate increases, favorable loss experience and cost structure efficiencies. As a result, our underwriting profits increased to $6.1 million for the first three months of 2006 from $3.0 million for the same period in 2005. Partially offsetting the increases in net income was higher interest expense.

Form 10-Q: 21

The decreases in direct and assumed premiums written and net premiums written are primarily the result of a lower number of policyholders and a shift in our business mix, including a further migration to lower policy limits chosen by policyholders in Florida, as compared with the same period in the prior year.  The number of professional policyholders was 13,721 at March 31, 2006, down 3% from 14,076 at March 31, 2005.  The policyholder retention rate in our core Florida market was 92% for the first three months of 2006, which is down slightly from 94% for the three months ended December 31, 2005.  The decrease in direct and assumed premiums written also reflects the exit from former fronting programs.  

The following table shows the distribution of the policy limits of our insured Florida physicians at our insurance segment.

As of March 31, 2006		As of March 31, 2005
Policy Limits of		Policy Limits of
$250,000 per loss or less	$500,000 per loss or less	$250,000 per loss or less	$500,000 per loss or less
65%	81%	63%	81%

 The increase in net premiums earned when contrasted with the decrease in net premiums written reflects the inherent lag between when a policy is written and ultimately earned. The increase in net premiums earned is primarily the result of the termination of cessions under the Hannover Re net account quota share reinsurance agreement, under which ceded earned premiums were $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Investment revenues, which are comprised of net investment income and net realized investment gains, increased to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $5.8 million for the same period in 2005. Net investment income increased primarily as a result of growth in our cash and invested assets corresponding with increases in our insurance business in recent years and a higher overall yield. Net realized investment gains, which are closely tied to the financial markets and will vary depending on our cash needs and the management of our investment portfolio, decreased slightly from the same period in the prior year.

Net losses and LAE incurred increased primarily as a result of the increase in net premiums earned. However, our loss and LAE ratio (defined as the ratio of net losses and LAE incurred to net premiums earned) decreased to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from 77% for the same period in 2005. The lower increase in our net losses and LAE incurred relative to net premiums earned and the corresponding decrease in our loss and LAE ratio reflects pricing improvements in our insurance business, strict claims payment policies and favorable claims results. The favorable claims results are mainly due to lower numbers of newly reported claims and incidents and stable severity.

 Selected direct professional liability insurance claims data

 The increase in net paid losses and LAE for the three months ended March 31, 2006 when compared with the same period in 2005 is primarily the result of higher retention under reinsurance agreements applicable to such payments. The number of reported claims and incidents was down 9% from the comparable prior period and reflects the continued improvement in frequency in our Florida market. The number of professional liability claims with indemnity payment (“CWIP”) was level with the comparable prior period; however a higher number of claims closed without an indemnity payment resulted in a slight decrease in the percentage of CWIP to all claims and incidents closed. Our inventory of open claims and incidents declined further during the first three months of 2006, which follows declines in the number of claims and incidents reported in 2005. It is not unusual for our claims data to fluctuate from period to period. The data remains within our expectations.

Form 10-Q: 23

Other underwriting expensesincreased primarily due to a decrease in ceding commissions resulting from the termination of the Hannover Re net account quota share reinsurance agreement. In addition, the exit of our fronting programs has resulted in lower fronting fees, net of related expenses, resulting in a corresponding increase in other underwriting expenses. Share-based compensation increased $0.5 million, which includes share-based compensation of $0.2 million as a result of adopting FAS No. 123(R), effective January 1, 2006. Our expense ratio declined slightly compared with the same period in the prior year primarily due to additional cost structure efficiencies and lower commission expense, which more than offset the impact of the loss of ceding commissions under the Hannover Re net account quota share agreement and higher share-based compensation costs.

The increase in interest expense was due to increases in the three-month LIBOR, which is the base rate used to determine the interest on our long-term debt. The interest rates on our long-term debt ranged from 8.51% to 9.02% as of March 31, 2006. However, the hedging instruments that we have in place with maturity dates in 2008 essentially limited the maximum floating rate interest cost at 8.6% for those long-term debt arrangements where the interest rate was higher. The amortization of the initial cost of the hedging agreements also contributed to the increase in interest expense.

Other expenses is comprised primarily of finance charges associated with funds withheld under the Hannover Re net account quota share reinsurance agreement, which were $1.4 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in these finance charges corresponds with the decrease in the amount of funds withheld for business ceded under the agreement through June 30, 2004. We exercised our option to terminate future cessions under the agreement as of June 30, 2004.

The increase in income taxes reflects our higher income from continuing operations before income taxes. The effective income tax rates for our insurance segment were 31% and 28% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in our effective income tax rate is due to an increase in permanent differences as a percentage of our taxable income. During 2005, we reached a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with regard to the examination of our income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001. The settlement was approved by the Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation during the first three months of 2006. We had previously accrued for income tax liabilities related to the examination, and consequently there was no income tax impact for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as a result of the settlement. Our income tax returns for the years subsequent to December 31, 2001 have not been examined by the IRS and remain open under the statute of limitations.

Insurance Management Segment Results and Selected Other Information

 Insurance management net incomewas essentially level with the same period in the prior year. Our insurance management profit, which is calculated as insurance management fees less insurance management expenses, increased to $3.1 million for the first three months of 2006 from $2.9 from the same period in 2005, but was offset by a decrease in commission income.

Form 10-Q: 25

Insurance management fees earned by the insurance management segment are entirely comprised of management fees from PRI and PaPRI. We receive a management fee equal to 13% of PRI’s direct premiums written and a management fee equal to 21% of PaPRI’s direct premiums written. As such, changes in the direct premiums written by PRI and PaPRI result in corresponding changes in management fees earned by our insurance management segment. The increase in insurance management fees is due to an increase in premiums written by these carriers.

Commission incomedeclined due to decreases in brokerage commissions earned by the segment for the placement of reinsurance, which reflects reduced reinsurance needs at PRI and our insurance subsidiaries. The need for reinsurance and the terms and conditions of the reinsurance agreements of PRI and our insurance subsidiaries are reviewed on an annual basis, which can result in fluctuations in the amount of commission income earned from period to period.

Insurance management expenses increased as a result of additional infrastructure investments necessary to support growth in the segment in recent years, mainly salaries and benefits related to staffing additions.

Discontinued TPA Segment Results

Our TPA segment was comprised of our former wholly owned subsidiary, EMI. On May 9, 2005, EMI’s employee benefits administration business was sold to WebTPA, effective April 30, 2005.  A pre-tax gain of $0.4 million was recognized on the sale. On May 31, 2005, the remaining TPA segment operations were sold to a private investor. A pre-tax gain of $1.0 million was recognized on the sale. The results of operations and gain on sale of the former TPA segment are reported as discontinued operations. See Note 10, Discontinued Operations, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information about the sale of our TPA segment. Financial data for the TPA segment is summarized in the table below. Dollar amounts are in thousands.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to generate cash flows sufficient to meet short-term and long-term cash requirements of its business operations. As a holding company, we possess assets that consist primarily of the stock of our subsidiaries, and certain other investments. The sources of liquidity available to us for the payment of operating expenses, taxes and debt-related amounts include net earnings from and overhead allocations to our insurance management segment and management fees and dividends from our insurance segment. The net earnings of our insurance management segment are derived by providing management services to PRI and PaPRI and reinsurance brokerage services to these same companies and our insurance subsidiaries. Management fees from our insurance subsidiaries are based upon agreements pursuant to which we provide substantially all management and administrative services. In accordance with limitations imposed by Florida and Missouri laws, our insurance subsidiaries are permitted, within insurance regulatory guidelines, to pay us dividends of approximately $19.7 million during 2006 without prior regulatory approval.

For additional information concerning our liquidity and financial resources, see Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Sources of liquidity include cash from operations, financing arrangements and routine sales of investments. As reported in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, net cash provided by operating activitieswas $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, a decrease of $4.9 million, or 18%, from $27.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to an increase in net loss and LAE payments as a percentage of collected net premiums written. This decrease was partially offset by higher reinsurance recoveries and management fees from PRI and PaPRI.

Net cash provided by investing activitieswas $34.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Net cash used in investing activities was $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The changes in net cash provided by or used in investing activities are due primarily to transactions involving fixed maturity securities, including short-term investments, which are dependent on our cash flows from operating activities and the management of our investment portfolio. Net sales of fixed maturity securities were $34.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared with net purchases of fixed maturity securities of $10.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Net cash used in financing activities was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The net cash used in financing activities for the first three months of 2006 was due to the repurchase of common shares under our stock repurchase program, which totaled $3.7 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, we issued common shares and did not make any repurchases.

As of March 31, 2006, we had cash and investments of $789.0 million. Included within cash and investments were cash and cash equivalents of $158.7 million and short-term investments and fixed maturity securities, available for sale, with a fair value of approximately $31.4 million and $41.3 million, respectively, with scheduled maturities during the next 12 months.

Both internal and external forces influence our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Claim settlements, premium levels and investment returns may be impacted by changing rates of inflation and other economic conditions. We believe that our cash and investments as of March 31, 2006, combined with expected cash flows from operating activities and the scheduled maturities of investments, will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for operating purposes for at least the next 12 months.

Form 10-Q: 27

Capital Resources

Capital resources consist of funds deployed or available to be deployed to support our business operations. We believe our financial strength provides us with the flexibility and capacity to obtain funds externally through debt or equity financing on both a short-term and long-term basis. Our ability to access the capital markets is dependent on, among other things, market conditions. We have accessed the debt market from time to time. The following table summarizes the components of our capital resources as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

	As of March 31, 2006			As of December 31, 2005
Long-term debt	$	46,083			46,083
Shareholders' equity	$	255,566			249,590
Ratio of debt to total capitalization		15.3	%		15.6	%

Long-term debt

As our business has grown, so has our need for capital to support our operations and maintain our ratings. In recent years, we have taken actions to obtain additional capital for general corporate purposes, including supporting growth by our insurance subsidiaries. During 2003, we completed the placement of $10.0 million in senior notes and created three trusts that issued 30 year trust-preferred securities for which the proceeds from such issuances, together with cash previously contributed to the trusts, were used to purchase junior subordinated debentures from FPIC totaling $36.1 million. The debentures that we issued to the three trusts, which are reported as long-term debt in the consolidated statements of financial position, are subordinated to all senior indebtedness, including the senior notes, and are equal in standing with one another. In accordance with the guidance given in FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Variable Interest Entities,” we have not consolidated these subsidiary trusts.

The securities are uncollateralized and bear floating interest equal to the three-month LIBOR plus spreads ranging from 3.85% to 4.20% (the interest rates ranged from 8.51% to 9.02% as of March 31, 2006). The floating interest rates are adjustable quarterly with changes in the three-month LIBOR, and in the case of two offerings, the maximum rate that may be charged under the securities within the first five years is 12.50%. We have also purchased interest rate collars designed to maintain the ultimate floating interest cost on all of these securities within a stated range for five years from closing. We have the option to call the trust-preferred securities at par or its equivalent beginning five years from closing. The trust-preferred securities also contain features that allow us the option, under certain conditions, to defer interest payments for up to 20 quarters and to redeem the securities before the first optional call date in five years. In the case of the potential earlier call date, the redemption or call price payable by us may be different than par. The securities have stated maturities of 30 years and are due in May and October 2033.

Other Significant Financial Position Accounts

Due from reinsurers on unpaid losseswas $289.6 million as of March 31, 2006, a decrease of $14.2 million, or 5%, from $303.8 million as of December 31, 2005. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease of $6.1 million in ceded loss and LAE reserves under the Hannover Re net account quota share agreement as a result of the termination of further cessions under the agreement as of June 30, 2004. Ceded loss and LAE reserves under one of our former fronting programs also decreased $4.1 million, with a corresponding decrease in our liability for losses and LAE.

We purchase reinsurance from a number of companies to mitigate concentrations of credit risk. Our reinsurance brokers assist us in the analysis of the credit quality of our reinsurers. We base our reinsurance buying decisions on an evaluation of the then current financial strength and stability of prospective reinsurers. However, the financial strength of our reinsurers, and their corresponding ability to pay us, may change in the future due to forces or events we cannot control or anticipate. At March 31, 2006 our receivable from reinsurers was $318.4 million. We have not experienced any difficulties in collecting amounts due from reinsurers due to the financial condition of the reinsurer. Should future events lead us to believe that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligation, adjustments to the amounts recoverable would be reflected in the results of current operations. We hold collateral in the form of letters of credit or trust accounts for amounts recoverable from reinsurers that are not designated as authorized reinsurers by the applicable departments of insurance of the states that have jurisdiction over the underlying business.

Paid in advance and unprocessed premiumswas $7.5 million as of March 31, 2006, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 48%, from $14.5 million as of December 31, 2005. The decrease reflects the policy renewal cycle whereby policies are generally renewed with an effective date of December 1, January 1, or July 1 of each year, with the largest number of policies being renewed on January 1. As a result, paid in advance and unprocessed premiums are expected to be higher as of December 31 of each year.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have various contractual obligations that are recorded as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We also have items that represent contractual obligations, commitments and contingent liabilities that are not recorded or that are considered to possess off-balance sheet risks beyond their respective amounts otherwise reflected in our consolidated financial statements. These include: (1) derivative financial instruments, which are used to hedge interest rate risk; (2) guarantees by us and contractual obligations related to the trust-preferred securities issued by separately created, unconsolidated trusts; (3) a contingent liability under an amendment made to our management agreement with PRI, effective January 1, 2002; (4) employee benefit plans; (5) two irrevocable letters of credit issued in favor of the lessor under operating leases; and (6) a contractual liability related to the sale of our former TPA segment. We were not a party to any unconsolidated arrangement or financial instrument with special purpose entities or other vehicles as of March 31, 2006, which would give rise to previously undisclosed market, credit or financing risk. There have been no significant changes in our contractual obligations, commitments and off-balance sheet arrangements as described in the applicable section of our MD&A included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes in the reported market risks, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 An evaluation of the effectiveness of FPIC's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), was completed as of March 31, 2006 by FPIC’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on such evaluation, FPIC’s disclosure controls and procedures were found to be effective in ensuring that information relating to FPIC and its consolidated subsidiaries, as required to be disclosed by FPIC in its periodic reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, is accumulated and made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and other management, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2006 and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We, in common with the insurance industry in general, are subject to litigation in the normal course of business. Though we may be involved in routine litigation as a matter of course, we do not expect these cases to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. See Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, for additional information concerning our commitments and contingencies.

We may also become involved in legal actions not involving claims under our insurance policies from time to time. We have evaluated such exposures as of March 31, 2006, and in all cases, believe our position and defenses are meritorious. However, there can be no absolute assurance as to the outcome of such exposures. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is determined to be probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated.

In addition, our insurance subsidiaries may become subject to claims for extra-contractual obligations or risks in excess of policy limits in connection with their insurance claims. These claims are sometimes referred to as “bad faith” actions as it is alleged that the insurance company acted in bad faith in the administration of a claim against an insured. Bad faith actions are infrequent and generally occur in instances where a jury verdict exceeds the insured’s policy limits. Under such circumstances, it is routinely alleged that the insurance company failed to negotiate a settlement of a claim in good faith within the insured’s policy limit. We have evaluated such exposures as of March 31, 2006, and believe our position and defenses are meritorious. However, there can be no absolute assurance as to the outcome of such exposures. An award for a bad faith claim against one of our insurance subsidiaries in excess of the applicable reinsurance could have an adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Stock Repurchase Plans

Under our stock repurchase program, we may repurchase shares at such times, and in such amounts, as management deems appropriate. Under certain circumstances, limitations may be placed on our ability to repurchase our capital stock by the terms of agreements relating to our junior subordinated debentures. For information regarding these limitations, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 12, Long-term Debt, as well as the discussion under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Item 7.
