Summary of Operations and Basis of Presentation | |
Summary of Operations and Basis of Presentation | 1. Summary of Operations and Basis of Presentation Summary of Operations Palomar Holdings, Inc. (the Company) is an insurance holding company that was incorporated in Delaware on March 14, 2019. Prior to incorporation in Delaware, the Company was known as GC Palomar Holdings (GCPH), which was a Cayman Islands incorporated insurance holding company formed on October 4, 2013 when GC Palomar Investor LP (GCPI) acquired control of GCPH. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries include Palomar Specialty Reinsurance Company (PSRE) and Palomar Insurance Holdings, Inc. (PIH), which wholly owns Palomar Specialty Insurance Company (PSIC) and Prospect General Insurance Agency, Inc. (PGIA). Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly‑owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Stock Split On March 15, 2019, the Company effected a 17,000,000 for one forward stock split in conjunction with domestication in the United States. All share and per share information included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split for the Company’s common stock for all periods presented. Initial Public Offering (IPO) On April 22, 2019, the Company completed its IPO with the sale of 6,468,750 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, including 843,750 shares sold upon the exercise in full of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares. After underwriter discounts and commissions and offering expenses, net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $87.4 million. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. All revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised. Significant estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, and the fair values of investments. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company currently qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Accordingly, the Company is provided the option to adopt new or revised accounting guidance either (i) within the same periods as those otherwise applicable to non‑emerging growth companies or (ii) within the same time periods as private companies. The Company has elected to adopt new or revised accounting guidance within the same time period as private companies, unless, as indicated below, management determines it is preferable to take advantage of early adoption provisions offered within the applicable guidance. Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to revenue recognition, “ASU 2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) .” The guidance applies to all companies that either enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards, such as insurance contracts. Under this guidance, a company will recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligations. According to the superseding standard ASU 2015-14 that deferred the effective dates of the preceding, and because the Company is filing as an emerging growth company, the standard became effective for the Company January 1, 2019. However, the Company is not required to present the impacts of the standard until it files its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The Company expects to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method. The Company does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, but will continue to assess the potential impact of adoption throughout 2019. In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance for accounting for leases, “ASU 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842) .” Under current guidance, leases are only included on the balance sheet if the criteria to classify the agreement as a capital lease are met. This update will require the recognition of a right‑of‑use asset and a corresponding lease liability, discounted to the present value, for all leases that extend beyond 12 months. This guidance was subsequently amended multiple times and offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This new guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application, with early adoption permitted. An entity may choose to use the standard’s effective date, rather than the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, as the date of initial application. An entity would record the effects of initially applying the new guidance as a cumulative‑effect adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently, an entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption would continue to be in accordance with the current guidance, including the current disclosure requirements. To facilitate transition, the new guidance includes a package of practical expedients that entities may elect to apply on adoption. The package of practical expedients relates to the identification and classification of leases and initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date. The new guidance also includes a practical expedient permitting the use of hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. This update is currently effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2020 with early adoption permitted. However, the FASB has recently voted to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued “ASU 2016‑13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments .” Current guidance delays the recognition of credit losses until it is probable a loss has been incurred. This updated guidance will require financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by means of an allowance for credit losses that runs through net income. Credit losses relating to available‑for‑sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses, with the amount of the allowance limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. In 2019, the FASB issued amendments to this guidance which provide an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost and provide additional clarification and implementation guidance. This update and its amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but not before annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued “ASU 2018‑13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . Among other things, this new guidance eliminates the need to disclose transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, changes the policy for timing of transfers and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements and includes requirements to disclose quantitative information about Level 3 measurements. This new guidance will be effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |

As of December 31, 2018, the Company held 173 fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position with a total estimated fair value of $73.8 million and total gross unrealized losses of $1.3 million. The aggregate fair value and gross unrealized losses of the Company’s investments aggregated by investment category and the length of time these individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, are as follows: Less Than 12 Months More Than 12 Months Total Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized September 30, 2019 Value Losses Value Losses Value Losses (in thousands) Fixed maturity securities: U.S. Governments 1,485 — $ 1,824 $ (7) $ 3,309 $ (7) States, territories, and possessions — — — — — — Political subdivisions 546 — — — 546 — Special revenue excluding mortgage/asset-backed securities 569 (1) 997 (2) 1,566 (3) Industrial and miscellaneous 3,936 (22) 3,457 (9) 7,393 (31) Mortgage/asset-backed securities 5,261 (13) 263 (1) 5,524 (14) Total $ 11,797 $ (36) $ 6,541 $ (19) $ 18,338 $ (55) Less Than 12 Months More Than 12 Months Total Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized December 31, 2018 Value Losses Value Losses Value Losses (in thousands) Fixed maturity securities: U.S. Governments $ 1,970 $ (25) $ 6,197 $ (101) $ 8,167 $ (126) States, territories, and possessions 719 (5) 501 (1) 1,220 (6) Political subdivisions 264 (1) 550 (9) 814 (10) Special revenue excluding mortgage/asset-backed securities 1,706 (14) 5,916 (77) 7,622 (91) Industrial and miscellaneous 30,544 (556) 14,913 (395) 45,457 (951) Mortgage/asset-backed securities 6,653 (39) 3,830 (42) 10,483 (81) Total $ 41,856 $ (640) $ 31,907 $ (625) $ 73,763 $ (1,265) The Company considers the following factors in determining whether declines in the fair value of investments are other‑than‑temporary: · The significance of the decline in fair value compared to the cost basis, · The time period during which there has been a significant decline in fair value, · Whether the unrealized loss is credit‑driven or a result of changes in market interest rates, · A fundamental analysis of the business prospects and financial condition of the issuer, · The Company’s intent to sell the securities as of each reporting date, and · If the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis or cost of the investment. Based on the Company’s reviews as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company determined that the fixed maturity securities’ unrealized losses were primarily the result of the interest rate environment and not the credit quality of the issuers. None of the fixed maturity securities were determined to be other‑than‑temporarily impaired. The Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before the recovery of their amortized cost basis. Therefore, none of the fixed maturity securities were written down during the respective periods.

Fair value measurements | 3. Fair value measurements Fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. The three‑tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below: Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Level 2—Pricing inputs are quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar investments in inactive markets; or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3—Pricing inputs into models are unobservable for the investment. The unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. To measure fair value, the Company obtains quoted market prices for its investment securities from its outside investment managers. If a quoted market price is not available, the Company uses prices of similar securities. The fair values obtained from the outside investment managers are reviewed for reasonableness and any discrepancies are investigated for final valuation. The fair value of the Company’s investments in fixed maturity securities is estimated using relevant inputs, including available market information, benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing. An Option Adjusted Spread model is also used to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. Industry standard models are used to analyze and value securities with embedded options or prepayment sensitivities. These fair value measurements are estimated based on observable, objectively verifiable market information rather than market quotes; therefore, these investments are classified and disclosed in Level 2 of the hierarchy. The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. September 30, 2019 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets: Fixed maturity securities U.S. Governments $ — $ 13,539 $ — $ 13,539 States, territories, and possessions — 2,469 — 2,469 Political subdivisions — 1,955 — 1,955 Special revenue excluding mortgage/asset-backed securities — 18,373 — 18,373 Industrial and miscellaneous — 128,855 — 128,855 Mortgage/asset-backed securities — 58,795 — 58,795 Equity securities 22,326 — — 22,326 Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash 16,902 — — 16,902 Total assets $ 39,228 $ 223,986 $ — $ 263,214 December 31, 2018 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total (in thousands) Assets: Fixed maturity securities U.S. Governments $ — $ 15,269 $ — $ 15,269 States, territories, and possessions — 1,221 — 1,221 Political subdivisions — 815 — 815 Special revenue excluding mortgage/asset-backed securities — 12,453 — 12,453 Industrial and miscellaneous — 65,126 — 65,126 Mortgage/asset-backed securities — 27,336 — 27,336 Equity securities 25,171 — — 25,171 Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash 9,924 — — 9,924 Total assets $ 35,095 $ 122,220 $ — $ 157,315 Liabilities: Long-term notes payable $ — $ — $ 20,000 $ 20,000 Total liabilities $ — $ — $ 20,000 $ 20,000 The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, reinsurance recoverable, and accounts payable and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short term‑maturity. The fair value of the Company’s long‑term note payable was determined by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows under the terms of the note agreements discounted at an estimated market rate of interest at December 31, 2018. This is a level 3 measurement. The Company repaid its long term-notes payable in May 2019 and did not have any long-term debt at September 30, 2019. Transfers between levels result from changes in the availability of market observable inputs and are recorded at the beginning of the reporting period. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 . |

Although management believes the liability recorded for losses and LAE is adequate, the variability inherent in this estimate could result in changes to the ultimate liability, which may be material to stockholders’ equity. The Company experienced favorable development of $0.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and adverse development of $0.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018. Favorable development in the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to lower than anticipated frequency and severity of claims in the specialty homeowners line. Adverse development in the three months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily due to higher than anticipated frequency and severity of claims in the commercial all risk line related to the 2017 accident year. The Company experienced favorable development of $0.3 million and $1.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Favorable development for both periods was primarily due to lower than anticipated frequency and severity of claims in the specialty homeowners line. |

Long-term debt | |
Long-term debt | 5. Long-term debt Prior to September 2018, the Company had $17.5 million in outstanding surplus notes which had been issued by PSIC on February 3, 2015 for a term of seven years. The surplus notes bore interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 8.00% and had restrictions as to payments of interest and principal and any such payment required the prior approval of the Oregon Insurance Commissioners before such payment could be made. Such payments could only be made from surplus. In September 2018, the Company completed a private placement financing of $20.0 million floating rate senior secured notes (Floating Rate Notes). As part of the financing agreement, the Company immediately used surplus funds to pay down the existing $17.5 million in surplus notes. As part of this pre‑payment, the Company incurred a penalty of $0.1 million which, along with unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.4 million, was charged to income in September 2018. The Floating Rate Notes were redeemed pursuant to their terms on May 23, 2019, at a redemption price equal to 102% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, or $20.4 million (plus $0.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest thereon). The Company recognized a charge of $1.3 million upon redemption with $0.4 million due to the redemption premium and $0.9 million due to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. The $0.4 million redemption premium was recognized as a component of interest expense and the $0.9 million issuance cost write-off was recognized as a component of other underwriting expenses in the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Floating Rate Notes would have matured on September 6, 2028 and bore interest at the three‑month treasury rate plus 6.50% per annum. The Company incurred $0.6 million in interest expense related to the surplus notes for the three months ended September 30, 2018 (inclusive of a $0.1 million prepayment penalty) and paid $0.3 million. The Company incurred $1.1 million in interest expense related to the Floating Rate Notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (inclusive of the $0.4 million redemption premium) and $1.4 million in interest expense related to the surplus notes for the nine months end September 30, 2018. The Company paid $1.2 million of interest for each period. |

Income Taxes | 6. Income Taxes Prior to March 2019, the Company was a Cayman Islands incorporated holding company with U.K. tax residency. On March 14, 2019, the Company implemented a domestication (the Domestication) pursuant to Section 388 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and Section 206 of the Companies Law (2018 Revision), as amended, of the Cayman Islands pursuant to which it became a Delaware corporation and no longer subject to the laws of the Cayman Islands. Historically, the Company’s Bermuda based subsidiary, PSRE, was not required to pay any taxes on its income or capital gains but was subject to a 1% U.S. federal excise tax on reinsurance premiums assumed. As a result of the Domestication, PSRE’s income is subject to U.S. federal income tax in 2019. Prior to 2019, the Company maintained a valuation allowance on the U.S. tax attributes due to significant negative evidence, including cumulative U.S. losses in the most recent three-year period and our assessment that the realization of the net deferred tax assets did not meet the "more likely than not" criteria under ASC 740, Income Taxes . Management assessed available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income would be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. The projected reversal of temporary differences, the Domestication, and projected future operating income in the U.S. represents significant positive evidence, which outweighed the historical negative evidence. Based on this evidence, management determined it was more likely than not that the federal deferred tax assets are recoverable and therefore the associated valuation allowance was released as of March 31, 2019. State NOL carryforwards, due to the limited carryforward period, do not meet the “more likely than not” criteria and the Company will continue to maintain a valuation allowance on the associated deferred tax assets. The Company decreased the valuation allowance on the federal deferred tax assets by $1.7 million as a result of this analysis. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period change or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present. The tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was in line with the expected tax computed at the statutory rate of 21%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 tax expense differs from the expected tax computed at the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily due to a U.S. tax benefit of $1.7 million for the reversal of a significant portion of our U.S. deferred tax valuation allowance offset by tax expense of $4.8 million from the addback related to the stock compensation charge recognized during the first quarter that is not deductible for tax purposes. |

Stock-Based Compensation | 8. Stock-Based Compensation The below table summarizes the Company’s stock-based compensation expense for each period presented: Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 (in thousands) (in thousands) Stock-Based Compensation $ 410 $ — $ 23,677 $ — Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of awards. The Company does not apply a forfeiture rate to unvested awards and accounts for forfeitures as they occur. All stock-based compensation is included in other underwriting expenses in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income. The Company recognized approximately $23.0 million of stock-based compensation expense in March 2019 relating to the modification of its 2014 Management Incentive Plan. The Company began recognizing stock-based compensation expense relating to its 2019 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan upon their inception and initial stock grants in April 2019. All stock based compensation expense recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2019 relates to the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan and 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Management Incentive Plan prior to IPO The Company’s former parent, GC Palomar Investor LP, adopted a 2014 Management Incentive Plan (in the form of profits interests) on February 12, 2014 under which certain officers and employees of PSIC and its affiliates were entitled to Class P Units in GC Palomar Investor LP. Class P unit holders were expected to realize value only upon the occurrence of liquidity events meeting requisite financial thresholds after the Class A unit holders recovered their investment. The Class P unit holders had no voting rights. The Company did not record stock based compensation expense related to this plan prior to 2019 because no liquidity events were probable of occurring. On March 15, 2019, the Company modified its 2014 Management Incentive Plan by eliminating the requirement of a liquidity event to occur for the holders of its Class P units to realize value. The 12,552,825 Class P units outstanding were modified such that the vesting of each Class P unit holder’s awards was accelerated and their Class P distribution percentages were determined and distributed based on these percentages. This modification resulted in a stock compensation charge and corresponding increase to additional paid‑in capital of $23.0 million during the quarter ending March 31, 2019. The stock compensation charge is included in other underwriting expenses in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan On April 16, 2019, the Company's 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2019 Plan) became effective. The 2019 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares and units, and other cash-based or share-based awards. In addition, the 2019 Plan contains a mechanism through which the Company may adopt a deferred compensation arrangement in the future. A total of 2,400,000 shares of common stock are initially authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2019 Plan. This reserve will automatically increase on January 1, 2020 and each subsequent anniversary through 2029, by an amount equal to the smaller of: 3% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or an amount determined by the board of directors. Stock Options Recipients of stock options can purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the stock's fair market value on the grant date, determined by the closing price of the Company's stock on the grant date. Stock options vest over a two or four year period with 25% or 50% vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remainder vesting monthly over the remaining period, subject to continued employment. Stock options expire ten years after the grant date. The following table summarizes stock option transactions for the 2019 Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2019: Number of shares Weighted-average exercise price Weighted average remaining contractual term (in years) Aggregate intrinsic value (in thousands) Outstanding at December 31, 2018 — $ — Options granted 994,966 15.06 Options exercised — — Options canceled (9,760) 15.00 Outstanding at September 30, 2019 985,206 $ $ 24,002 Vested and Exercisable at September 30, 2019 — $ — — $ — As of September 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $2.9 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.43 years. The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: Risk free rate of return (1) 2.28% - 2.45% Expected share price volatility (2) 18.40% - 18.45% Expected life in years (3) 5.64 - 6.08 years Dividend yield (4) (1) Determined based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant for zero-coupon U.S. Treasury notes with remaining terms similar to the expected term of the options. (2) Determined based on analysis of the volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies. (3) Determined using the “simplified method” for estimating the expected option life, which is the average of the weighted-average vesting period and contractual term of the option as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its common stock has been publicly traded. (4) Determined to be zero as the Company has not historically issued dividends. Restricted Stock Units Restricted stock units are valued on their date of grant and will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. The fair value of restricted stock units is determined by the closing price of the Company's stock on the grant date. The following table summarizes restricted stock unit transactions for the 2019 Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2019: Number of shares Weighted-average grant date fair value Non vested outstanding at December 31, 2018 — $ — Granted 6,066 $ 16.49 Vested — $ — Forfeited — $ — Non vested outstanding at September 30, 2019 6,066 $ 16.49 As of September 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $0.1 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.56 years. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan On April 16, 2019, the Company's 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2019 ESPP) became effective. A total of 240,000 shares of common stock are initially authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2019 ESPP. In addition, the 2019 ESPP provides for annual increases in the number of shares available for issuance on January 1, 2020 and each subsequent anniversary through 2029, equal to the smaller of 240,000 shares of the Company’s common stock or such other amount as may be determined by the board of directors. Under the 2019 ESPP purchases of common stock occur through employee participation in discrete offering periods. In each discrete offering period, employee funds are withheld and stock purchases occur upon the conclusion of the offering period. The first discrete offering period has not concluded as of September 30, 2019 and the Company did not issue any shares of common stock pursuant to the 2019 ESPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. |

Prior to incorporation in Delaware, the Company was known as GC Palomar Holdings (GCPH), which was a Cayman Islands incorporated insurance holding company formed on October 4, 2013 when GC Palomar Investor LP (GCPI) acquired control of GCPH. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries include Palomar Specialty Reinsurance Company (PSRE) and Palomar Insurance Holdings, Inc. (PIH), which wholly owns Palomar Specialty Insurance Company (PSIC) and Prospect General Insurance Agency, Inc. (PGIA). |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly‑owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Stock Split | Stock Split On March 15, 2019, the Company effected a 17,000,000 for one forward stock split in conjunction with domestication in the United States. All share and per share information included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split for the Company’s common stock for all periods presented. |
Initial Public Offering (IPO) | Initial Public Offering (IPO) On April 22, 2019, the Company completed its IPO with the sale of 6,468,750 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, including 843,750 shares sold upon the exercise in full of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares. After underwriter discounts and commissions and offering expenses, net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $87.4 million. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. All revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised. Significant estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, and the fair values of investments. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company currently qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Accordingly, the Company is provided the option to adopt new or revised accounting guidance either (i) within the same periods as those otherwise applicable to non‑emerging growth companies or (ii) within the same time periods as private companies. The Company has elected to adopt new or revised accounting guidance within the same time period as private companies, unless, as indicated below, management determines it is preferable to take advantage of early adoption provisions offered within the applicable guidance. Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to revenue recognition, “ASU 2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) .” The guidance applies to all companies that either enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards, such as insurance contracts. Under this guidance, a company will recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligations. According to the superseding standard ASU 2015-14 that deferred the effective dates of the preceding, and because the Company is filing as an emerging growth company, the standard became effective for the Company January 1, 2019. However, the Company is not required to present the impacts of the standard until it files its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The Company expects to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective method. The Company does not expect adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, but will continue to assess the potential impact of adoption throughout 2019. In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance for accounting for leases, “ASU 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842) .” Under current guidance, leases are only included on the balance sheet if the criteria to classify the agreement as a capital lease are met. This update will require the recognition of a right‑of‑use asset and a corresponding lease liability, discounted to the present value, for all leases that extend beyond 12 months. This guidance was subsequently amended multiple times and offers specific accounting guidance for a lessee, a lessor and sale and leaseback transactions. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This new guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application, with early adoption permitted. An entity may choose to use the standard’s effective date, rather than the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, as the date of initial application. An entity would record the effects of initially applying the new guidance as a cumulative‑effect adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently, an entity’s reporting for the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption would continue to be in accordance with the current guidance, including the current disclosure requirements. To facilitate transition, the new guidance includes a package of practical expedients that entities may elect to apply on adoption. The package of practical expedients relates to the identification and classification of leases and initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date. The new guidance also includes a practical expedient permitting the use of hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. This update is currently effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2020 with early adoption permitted. However, the FASB has recently voted to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued “ASU 2016‑13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments .” Current guidance delays the recognition of credit losses until it is probable a loss has been incurred. This updated guidance will require financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by means of an allowance for credit losses that runs through net income. Credit losses relating to available‑for‑sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses, with the amount of the allowance limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. In 2019, the FASB issued amendments to this guidance which provide an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost and provide additional clarification and implementation guidance. This update and its amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but not before annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued “ASU 2018‑13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . Among other things, this new guidance eliminates the need to disclose transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, changes the policy for timing of transfers and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements and includes requirements to disclose quantitative information about Level 3 measurements. This new guidance will be effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. |

(3) Determined using the “simplified method” for estimating the expected option life, which is the average of the weighted-average vesting period and contractual term of the option as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its common stock has been publicly traded.
