ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION	'
	NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION
	Organization
	Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was initially formed as a Florida limited liability company in 2012. On January 1, 2014, the Company formed a Delaware limited liability company, also named Heritage Insurance Holdings, LLC and merged with it in order to domicile the Company in Delaware. Effective May 22, 2014, Heritage Insurance Holdings, LLC converted into a Delaware corporation named Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc.
	The Company’s primary product is personal residential insurance, which the Company currently offers in Florida only under authorization from the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (“FLOIR”).
	On May 22, 2014, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 was declared effective, pursuant to which it sold 6,900,000 shares of common stock to the public at a price of $11.00 per share, including 900,000 shares sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option (the “IPO”). Concurrent with the IPO, the Company completed a private placement with Ananke, an affiliate of Nephila Capital Ltd, to purchase $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock at a price per share equal to the public offering price. The Company’s total net proceeds from the IPO and the Private Placement were $78.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and other expenses.
	On June 13, 2014, Heritage Property & Casualty Insurance Company (“Heritage P&C”), entered into an Insurance Policy Acquisition and Transition Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (“FIGA”) and the Florida Department of Financial Services (“DFS”), the Receiver of Sunshine State Insurance Company (“SSIC”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Heritage P&C has the right to offer a new policy of insurance, effective June 27, 2014 to all (subject to limited exceptions) Florida SSIC policyholders having in-force policies (“Transition Policies”), without the need for SSIC policyholders to file a new application with Heritage P&C or pay premium that has already been paid to SSIC (“Transition Coverage”). As of June 27, 2014, SSIC had approximately 33,000 policies in force, representing approximately $58.9 million of in force premium and unearned premium of approximately $29.3 million. The Transition Coverage will terminate at the end of the original SSIC policy period. Upon termination of each Transition Policy, Heritage P&C will renew such policies at the lesser of SSIC’s and Heritage P&C’s rates on either SSIC’s or Heritage P&C’s forms, respectively. The SSIC policies represented approximately 19% of the Company’s total policies in force at June 30, 2014. Heritage P&C was assigned the entirety of the unearned premium. As consideration, Heritage P&C paid $10.0 million to the DFS, which will be amortized as acquisition costs in relation to the earning of the approximate $29.3 million of unearned premium. The $100 per policy FIGA statutory deductible and unearned commissions that will be paid to FIGA, as part of the transaction, will be deducted from the $10.0 million payment.
	The Company conducts its operations under one business segment.
	Consolidation and Presentation
	The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). GAAP differs from statutory accounting principles prescribed or permitted for insurance entities by regulatory authorities. While preparing its financial statements, the Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results will differ from those estimates. Reported amounts that require the Company to make extensive use of estimates include its reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, deferred policy acquisition costs and investments. Except for the captions on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, the Company generally uses the term loss expense(s) to collectively refer to both losses and loss adjustment expenses.
	The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein have been included. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on May 27, 2014. Results for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.
	The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As a result, the Company is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. The Company intends to continue to take advantage of some, but not all, of the exemptions available to emerging growth companies until such time that it is no longer an emerging growth company. The Company has, however, irrevocably elected not to take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the JOBS Act for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards. As a result, the Company will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	'
	NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Our significant accounting policies, other than those below, are described in Note 2 in our audited consolidated financial statements as referred to above.
	Offering costs
	Offering costs incurred in connection with the IPO, which included underwriters’ fees, legal and accounting fees, printing and other fees were deducted from the gross proceeds of the IPO. The proceeds from the issuance of shares net of offering costs is included in additional paid in capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. The Company incurred in aggregate $7.2 million in offering costs related to the IPO.
	Income Taxes
	On May 22, 2014, the Company converted from a limited liability company to a corporation. As a limited liability company, the Company was treated as a partnership for tax purposes, and accordingly was not subject to entity-level federal or state income taxation. The Company’s income tax provision generally consisted of income taxes payable by its separate subsidiaries that are taxed as corporations. As such, the Company’s effective tax rate as a limited liability company has historically been driven primarily by the taxable income recognized with respect to gross premiums written. As a corporation, the Company is subject to typical corporate U.S. federal and state income tax rates on a consolidated basis which it expects to result in a statutory tax rate of approximately 38.575% under current tax law.
	Accounting Pronouncements
	The Company describes below recent pronouncements that have had or may have a significant effect on its financial statements or on its disclosures. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that a) are not anticipated to have an impact on, or b) are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, or related disclosures.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASU 2014-09”) which supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements
	Subsequent Events
	The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 855-10, “Subsequent Events,” relating to subsequent events. This guidance establishes principles and requirements for subsequent events. This guidance defines the period after the balance sheet date during which events or transactions that may occur would be required to be disclosed in the company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events up to the date of issuance of this report. (see Note 18)

During the Company’s quarterly evaluations of its securities for impairment, the Company determined that none of its investments in debt and equity securities that reflected an unrealized loss position were other-than-temporarily impaired. The issuers of the Company’s debt securities continue to make interest payments on a timely basis and have not suffered any credit rating reductions. The Company does not intend to sell nor is it likely that it would be required to sell the debt securities before the Company recovers its amortized cost basis. All the issuers of the equity securities it owns had near-term prospects that indicated the Company could recover its cost basis, and the Company also has the ability and the intent to hold these securities until the value equals or exceeds its cost.

INCOME TAXES	'
	NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded $9.5 million of income tax expense which resulted in an estimated annual effective tax rate of 35.2%. The effective tax rate was primarily impacted due to income earned while the Company was a limited liability company in the amount of $2.7 million, which was not subject to entity level taxation.
	The Company’s deferred income tax asset of $4.4 million at December 31, 2013 decreased to $3.3 million deferred tax liability at June 30, 2014 primarily due to the increase in deferred acquisition costs resulting from the assumption of SSIC policies in June 2014.

REINSURANCE

Insurance [Abstract]	'
REINSURANCE	'
	NOTE 9. REINSURANCE
	The Company’s reinsurance program is designed, utilizing its risk management methodology, to address its exposure to catastrophes. The Company’s program provides reinsurance protection for catastrophes including hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornadoes. These reinsurance agreements are part of the Company’s catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide its stockholders an acceptable return on the risks assumed in its property business, and to reduce variability of earnings, while providing protection to the Company’s policyholders.
	Effective December 4, 2012, concurrent with the effective date of the Company’s initial assumption transaction with Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“Citizens”), the Company secured catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance providing $9.5 million of protection in excess of its $2.0 million primary retention through May 31, 2013. Loss payments under this contract reduce the limits of coverage afforded by the amounts paid, but the limit of coverage would be reinstated from the time of the occurrence of the loss. The Company would pay an additional premium calculated at pro rata of 100% of the reinsurer’s premium for the term of this contract, being pro rata only as to the fraction of the reinsurer’s limit of liability and reinstated simultaneously with the reinsurer’s loss payment. Under no circumstances would the reinsurer’s liability exceed $9.5 million for any one loss occurrence, and $19.0 million for all loss occurrences during the contract term.
	During the second quarter of 2013, the Company placed its reinsurance program for the period from June 1, 2013 through May 31, 2014. The Company’s reinsurance program, which was segmented into layers of coverage, protected it for excess property catastrophe losses and loss adjustment expenses. The Company’s previous year’s reinsurance program incorporated the mandatory coverage required by law to be placed with the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund, a state-mandated catastrophe reinsurance fund (“FHCF”). The Company also purchased private reinsurance below, alongside and above the FHCF layer, as well as aggregate reinsurance coverage. The following describes the various layers of the Company’s 2013 reinsurance program.
		•		The Company’s Retention. For the first catastrophic event, the Company may have a primary retention of the first $9.0 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses, of which the Company’s reinsurance subsidiary, Osprey Re Ltd (“Osprey”), is responsible for $3.0 million. For a second and third catastrophic event, Heritage P&C’s primary retention decreased to $3.0 million per event. To the extent that there was reinsurance coverage remaining, Heritage P&C has no primary retention for events beyond the third catastrophic event. Osprey had no primary retention beyond the first catastrophic event.
		•		Layers Below FHCF. Immediately above the Company’s retention, the Company purchased $94.0 million of reinsurance from third party reinsurers and Osprey. Through Osprey, the Company retained an aggregate participation in this coverage of $3.5 million, comprised of a 3% participation of $31.0 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of $9.0 million, or $0.9 million, and a 4% participation of $63.0 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of $40.0 million, or $2.5 million. Through the payment of a reinstatement premium, the Company was able to reinstate the full amount of this reinsurance one time. To the extent that $94.0 million or a portion thereof was exhausted in a first catastrophic event, the Company purchased reinstatement premium protection insurance to pay the required premium necessary for the reinstatement of this coverage.
		•		FHCF Layer. The Company’s FHCF coverage included an estimated maximum provisional limit of 90% of $270.0 million, or $243.0 million, in excess of the Company’s retention and private reinsurance of $103.0 million. The limit and retention of the FHCF coverage is subject to upward or downward adjustment based on, among other things, submitted exposures to FHCF by all participants. The Company purchased coverage alongside and above the FHCF layer from third party reinsurers. The layer alongside was in the amount of $27.0 million and the layer immediately above was in the amount of $28.5 million. To the extent the FHCF coverage was adjusted, this private reinsurance would adjust to fill in any gaps in coverage up to the reinsurers’ aggregate limits for this layer. Through the payment of a reinstatement premium, the Company was able to reinstate the full amount of this private reinsurance one time. To the extent that all or a portion of either of these private layers was exhausted in a first catastrophic event, the Company purchased reinstatement premium protection insurance to pay the required premium necessary for the reinstatement of this coverage. The FHCF coverage could not be reinstated once exhausted, but it did provide coverage for multiple events.
		•		Aggregate Coverage. In addition to the layers described above, the Company also purchased $170.0 million of aggregate reinsurance coverage for losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of $401.5 million for a first catastrophic event. To the extent that this coverage was not fully exhausted in the first catastrophic event, it provided coverage commencing at its reduced retention levels for second and subsequent events and where underlying coverage has been previously exhausted. There is no reinstatement of the aggregate reinsurance coverage once exhausted, but it did provide coverage for multiple events.
	For a first catastrophic event, the Company’s 2013 reinsurance program provided coverage for $571.5 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses, including its retention, and the Company was responsible for all losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of such amount. For subsequent catastrophic events, the Company’s total available coverage depended on the magnitude of the first event, as the Company may had coverage remaining from layers that were not previously fully exhausted. The Company also purchased reinstatement premium protection insurance to provide an additional $149.5 million of coverage. The Company aggregate reinsurance layer also provides coverage for second and subsequent events to the extent not exhausted in prior events.
	During April 2014, Heritage P&C entered into two catastrophe reinsurance agreements with Citrus Re Ltd., a newly-formed Bermuda special purpose insurer. The agreements provide for three years of coverage from catastrophe losses caused by certain named storms, including hurricanes, beginning on June 1, 2014. The limit of coverage of $200 million is fully collateralized by a reinsurance trust account for the benefit of Heritage P&C. Heritage P&C pays a periodic premium to Citrus Re Ltd. during this three-year risk period. Citrus Re Ltd. issued $200 million of principal-at-risk variable notes due April 2017 to fund the reinsurance trust account and its obligations to Heritage P&C under the reinsurance agreements. The maturity date of the notes may be extended up to two additional years to satisfy claims for catastrophic events occurring during the three-year term of the reinsurance agreements. The Company has determined that, while Citrus Re Ltd. is a variable interest entity, the Company does not have any variable interests in Citrus Re Ltd. Accordingly, consolidation of or disclosures associated with Citrus Re Ltd. are not applicable.
	During the second quarter of 2014, the Company placed its reinsurance program for the period from June 1, 2014 through May 31, 2015. The Company’s reinsurance program, which is segmented into layers of coverage, protects it for excess property catastrophe losses and loss adjustment expenses. The Company’s current reinsurance program incorporates the mandatory coverage required by law to be placed with FHCF. We also purchase private reinsurance below, alongside and above the FHCF layer, as well as aggregate reinsurance coverage. The following describes the various layers of our 2014 reinsurance program.
		•		The Company’s Retention. For the first catastrophic event, the Company may have a primary retention of the first $15.0 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses, of which Osprey is responsible for $6.0 million. For a second event, Heritage P&C’s primary retention decreases to $2.0 million and Osprey is responsible for $4.0 million. To the extent that there is reinsurance coverage remaining, Heritage P&C has a $2.0 million primary retention for events beyond the third catastrophic event. Osprey has no primary retention beyond the second catastrophic event.
		•		Layers Below FHCF. Immediately above the Company’s retention, the Company has purchased $185.0 million of reinsurance from third party reinsurers. Through the payment of a reinstatement premium, we are able to reinstate the full amount of this reinsurance one time. To the extent that $185.0 million or a portion thereof is exhausted in a first catastrophic event, the Company has purchased reinstatement premium protection insurance to pay the required premium necessary for the reinstatement of this coverage.
		•		FHCF Layer. Our FHCF coverage includes an estimated maximum provisional limit of 90% of $484.0 million, or $435.0 million, in excess of our retention and private reinsurance of $166.0 million. The limit and retention of the FHCF coverage is subject to upward or downward adjustment based on, among other things, submitted exposures to FHCF by all participants. We have purchased coverage alongside from third party reinsurers. The layer alongside is in the amount of $49.0 million. To the extent the FHCF coverage is adjusted, this private reinsurance will adjust to fill in any gaps in coverage up to the reinsurers’ aggregate limits for this layer. The FHCF coverage cannot be reinstated once exhausted, but it does provide coverage for multiple events.
		•		CAT Bond Layer. Immediately above the FHCF layer is the coverage provided by the reinsurance agreements entered into with Citrus Re Ltd., as described above in this footnote. The first contract with Citrus Re Ltd. provides $150.0 million of coverage and the second contract provides an additional $50.0 million of coverage. Osprey provides $25.0 million of coverage alongside the second contract.
		•		Aggregate Coverage. In addition to the layers described above, the Company has also purchased $105.0 million of aggregate reinsurance coverage for losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of $885.0 million for a first catastrophic event. To the extent that this coverage is not fully exhausted in the first catastrophic event, it provides coverage commencing at its reduced retention levels for second and subsequent events and where underlying coverage has been previously exhausted. There is no reinstatement of the aggregate reinsurance coverage once exhausted, but it does provide coverage for multiple events. Osprey Re Ltd. provides $20.0 million of protection in the layer above $940.0 million.
	For a first catastrophic event, the Company’s reinsurance program provides coverage for $990.0 million of losses and loss adjustment expenses, including its retention, and the Company is responsible for all losses and loss adjustment expenses in excess of such amount. For subsequent catastrophic events, the Company’s total available coverage depends on the magnitude of the first event, as the Company may have coverage remaining from layers that were not previously fully exhausted. The Company has also purchased reinstatement premium protection insurance to provide an additional $185.0 million of coverage. The Company aggregate reinsurance layer also provides coverage for second and subsequent events to the extent not exhausted in prior events.
	Assumption Transactions and Assumed Premiums Written
	On June 27, 2014, the Company assumed approximately $58.9 million (representing 33,000 policies in force) of annualized premiums from SSIC. The SSIC policies account for approximately 19% of the Company’s total policies in force as of June 30, 2014. Prior to June 27, 2014, substantially all of the Company’s policies have been obtained in connection with assumption transactions with Citizens, pursuant to which the Company recorded the assumed premiums written in the amount of the unearned premiums transferred to the Company. In connection with each assumption transaction, the Company assumes the responsibility of the primary writer of the risk through the expiration of the term of the policy.

RESERVE FOR UNPAID LOSSES	'
	NOTE 10. RESERVE FOR UNPAID LOSSES
	The Company determines the reserve for unpaid losses on an individual-case basis for all incidents reported. The liability also includes amounts for which are commonly referred to as incurred but not reported, or “IBNR”, claims as of the balance sheet date.
	The table below summarizes the activity related to the Company’s reserve for unpaid losses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):

	The significant increase in the Company’s reserves for unpaid losses in 2014 from 2013 is primarily due to the increase in policy base as a result of the assumption of Citizens policies in 2013.
	The Company writes insurance in the state of Florida, which could be exposed to hurricanes or other natural catastrophes. Although the occurrence of a major catastrophe could have a significant effect on its monthly or quarterly results, such an event is unlikely to be so material as to disrupt its overall normal operations. However, the Company is unable to predict the frequency or severity of any such events that may occur in the near term or thereafter.
	The Company believes that the reserve for unpaid losses reasonably represents the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.
	The Company’s losses incurred related to the prior year reflect a reserve deficiency of $217,000 and $249,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and a redundancy of $385,000 and $405,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The nominal deficiency and redundancy we experienced in 2014 and 2013, respectively, resulted from changes to the Company’s estimate of ultimate losses on claims incurred in prior years not attributable to any specific trend or claims handling dynamic.

STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATIONS	'
	NOTE 11. STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATIONS
	The insurance industry is heavily-regulated. State laws and regulations, as well as national regulatory agency requirements, govern the operations of all insurers such as our insurance subsidiary. The various laws and regulations require that insurers maintain minimum amounts of statutory surplus and risk-based capital, they restrict insurers’ ability to pay dividends, they specify allowable investment types and investment mixes, and they subject insurers to assessments.
	The Company’s insurance subsidiary must file with the insurance regulatory authorities an “Annual Statement” which reports, among other items, net income (loss) and surplus as regards policyholders, which is called stockholder’s equity under GAAP. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, our insurance subsidiary recorded statutory net income of $2.0 million and $25.1 million, respectively. The Company’s insurance subsidiary is domiciled in Florida, and the laws of that state require that its insurance subsidiary maintain capital and surplus equal to the greater of $15.0 million or 10% of its liabilities. The Company’s statutory capital surplus was $121.3 million and $63.1 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. State law also requires our insurance subsidiary to adhere to prescribed premium-to-capital surplus ratios, with which the Company is in compliance.

Accordingly, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors standing for election, subject to the rights of holders of any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock will be entitled to receive ratably any dividends that the board of directors may declare out of funds legally available therefor, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock. Upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock will be entitled to receive ratably its net assets available after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of holders of any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock.

The following discloses the changes in our stockholders’ equity during 2014.
	First Quarter 2014
	In the first quarter 2014, the Company raised an additional $88,000 of capital through the issuance of 17,850 investment units, comprised of 17,850 shares of common stock and 17,850 warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.88 per share.
	Second Quarter 2014

On May 22, 2014, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 7,685,700 shares were exercised (the “Warrant Exercise”), including warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,858,150 shares exercised on a cashless basis. Pursuant to the cashless exercise provisions of the warrants, each warrant holder paid the exercise price by surrendering to the Company an amount of shares having a value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The terms of the warrants provided that the value ascribed to each share surrendered to the Company as payment for the exercise price was equal to the initial public offering price per share of common stock. As a result, an aggregate of 5,622,519 shares were issued in connection with the Warrant Exercise. The Company received $22.5 million in proceeds from the cash exercise of 3,827,550 warrants.
	All remaining 30,600 warrants can be exercised at an exercise price equal to $5.88 per share on or before March 31, 2018. At issuance, equity warrants are recorded at their relative fair values, using the relative fair value method, in the stockholders’ equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s equity warrants can only be settled through the issuance of shares and are not subject to anti-dilution provisions. The aggregate intrinsic value of warrants was approximately $0.3 million at June 30, 2014.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION	'
	NOTE 16. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
	The Company has adopted the Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc., Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) effective on May 22, 2014. The Plan has authorized 2,981,737 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan for future grants.
	At June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were 2,981,737 and 0 shares available for grant under the Plan, respectively.
	The Company recognizes compensation expense under ASC 718 for its stock-based payments based on the fair value of the awards. The Company grants stock options at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the dates the options are granted. The options have a maximum term of ten years from the date of grant and vest primarily in equal annual installments over a range of one to five year periods following the date of grant for employee options. If a participant’s employment relationship ends, the participant’s vested awards will remain exercisable for the shorter of a period of 30 days or the period ending on the latest date on which such award could have been exercisable. The fair value of each option grant is separately estimated for each grant date. The fair value of each option is amortized into compensation expense on a straight-line basis between the grant date for the award and each vesting date. The Company estimates the fair value of all stock option awards as of the date of the grant by applying the Black-Scholes-Merton multiple-option pricing valuation model. The application of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense.
	Stock Options
	During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not grant any stock options.
	Stock-based compensation costs for restricted stock grants is measured based on the closing fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs over the award’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis for the time-based restricted stock grants. We granted no restricted stock awards during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The proceeds from the issuance of shares net of offering costs is included in additional paid in capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes
	On May 22, 2014, the Company converted from a limited liability company to a corporation. As a limited liability company, the Company was treated as a partnership for tax purposes, and accordingly was not subject to entity-level federal or state income taxation. The Company’s income tax provision generally consisted of income taxes payable by its separate subsidiaries that are taxed as corporations. As such, the Company’s effective tax rate as a limited liability company has historically been driven primarily by the taxable income recognized with respect to gross premiums written. As a corporation, the Company is subject to typical corporate U.S. federal and state income tax rates on a consolidated basis which it expects to result in a statutory tax rate of approximately 38.575% under current tax law.

The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that a) are not anticipated to have an impact on, or b) are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, or related disclosures.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” (“ASU 2014-09”) which supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements
