Business and Basis of Presentation | Business and Basis of Presentation In July 2020, Trean Insurance Group, Inc. (together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, the "Company") completed its initial public offering ("IPO") of common stock. Prior to the completion of the IPO, the Company effected the following reorganization transactions: (i) each of Trean Holdings LLC ("Trean"), an insurance services company, and BIC Holdings LLC ("BIC"), a property and casualty insurance holding company, contributed all of their respective assets and liabilities to Trean Insurance Group, Inc., a newly formed direct subsidiary of BIC, in exchange for shares of common stock in Trean Insurance Group, Inc. and (ii) upon the completion of the transfers by Trean and BIC, Trean and BIC were dissolved and distributed in-kind common shares to the pre-IPO unitholders. For the purpose of financial statement disclosures, references to the condensed consolidated financial statements for all post-IPO periods include the accounts of Trean Insurance Group, Inc., along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. References to the condensed consolidated financial statements for all pre-IPO periods include the condensed combined financial statements of BIC and Trean, along with their wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. All dollar amounts are shown in thousands, except share and per share amounts. The Company provides products and services to the specialty insurance market. Historically, the Company has focused on specialty casualty markets that are believed to be under-served and where the Company’s expertise allows the Company to achieve higher rates, such as niche workers' compensation markets and small- to medium-sized specialty casualty insurance programs. The Company underwrites specialty-casualty insurance products both through programs where the Company partners with other organizations ("Program Partners"), and also through the Company’s own managing general agencies ("Owned MGAs"). The Company also provides Program Partners with a variety of services, including issuing carrier services, claims administration, and reinsurance brokerage from which the Company generates fee-based revenues. The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries include (a) Benchmark Holding Company, a property and casualty insurance holding company, which owns Benchmark Insurance Company ("Benchmark"), a property and casualty insurance company domiciled in the state of Kansas, American Liberty Insurance Company ("ALIC"), a property and casualty insurance company domiciled in the state of Utah, and 7710 Insurance Company, a property and casualty insurance company domiciled in the state of South Carolina; (b) Trean Compstar Holdings, LLC, a limited liability company created originally for the purchase of Compstar Insurance Services LLC, a California-based general agency; and (c) Trean Corporation ("Trean Corp"), a reinsurance intermediary manager and a managing general agent, which consists of the following wholly owned subsidiaries: Trean Reinsurance Services, LLC, a reinsurance intermediary broker; Benchmark Administrators LLC, a claims third-party administrator; and Westcap Insurance Services, LLC, a managing general agent based in California. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and notes. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Form 10-K"). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company determined that its funds held agreements with reinsurers contain embedded derivatives relating to a total return swap on the underlying investments. As a result, the Company will now report the change in fair value of the embedded derivatives in gains (losses) on embedded derivatives in the condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations. In addition, investment earnings credited to the funds withheld accounts will be reported in gains (losses) on embedded derivatives in the condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations, whereas previously these were reported as an offset to net investment income. While the prior period amounts have been corrected for comparability, the correction was not material to the previously reported condensed consolidated and condensed combined financial statements. The impact of the prior period corrections on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and the related components of stockholders' equity is as follows: March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 Previously reported Adjustment As reported Previously reported Adjustment As reported Retained earnings $ 119,750 $ (1,248) $ 118,502 $ 112,959 $ (3,899) $ 109,060 Accumulated other comprehensive income 5,393 1,248 6,641 9,527 3,899 13,426 June 30, 2020 March 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Previously reported Adjustment As reported Previously reported Adjustment As reported Previously reported Adjustment As reported Retained earnings $ 35,561 $ (4,212) $ 31,349 $ 49,967 $ (1,850) $ 48,117 $ 40,361 $ (1,679) $ 38,682 Accumulated other comprehensive income 8,703 4,212 12,915 3,761 1,850 5,611 4,821 1,679 6,500 The impact of the prior period corrections on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 Previously reported Adjustment As reported Net investment income $ 1,524 $ 1,001 $ 2,525 Total revenue 24,429 1,001 25,430 Gains (losses) on embedded derivatives — (3,991) (3,991) Income before taxes 3,469 (2,990) 479 Income tax expense 979 (628) 351 Net income $ 3,720 $ (2,362) $ 1,358 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.10 $ (0.06) $ 0.04 Diluted $ 0.10 $ (0.06) $ 0.04 Other comprehensive income, net of tax Unrealized investment gains: Unrealized investment gains arising during the period $ 6,252 $ 2,990 $ 9,242 Income tax expense 1,310 628 1,938 Unrealized investment gains, net of tax 4,942 2,362 7,304 Other comprehensive income $ 4,942 $ 2,362 $ 7,304 Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Previously reported Adjustment As reported Net investment income $ 4,796 $ 1,974 $ 6,770 Total revenue 57,786 1,974 59,760 Gains (losses) on embedded derivatives — (5,180) (5,180) Income before taxes 15,285 (3,206) 12,079 Income tax expense 3,891 (673) 3,218 Net income $ 13,326 $ (2,533) $ 10,793 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.36 $ (0.07) $ 0.29 Diluted $ 0.36 $ (0.07) $ 0.29 Other comprehensive income, net of tax Unrealized investment gains: Unrealized investment gains arising during the period $ 5,029 $ 3,206 $ 8,235 Income tax expense 1,054 673 1,727 Unrealized investment gains, net of tax 3,975 2,533 6,508 Other comprehensive income $ 3,882 $ 2,533 $ 6,415 The correction of the prior period amounts had no impact on total operating, investing and financing activities on the Company’s condensed consolidated and condensed combined statements of cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2020. In conjunction with the correction of the prior period amounts, the fair value leveling table as of December 31, 2020 in Note 3 was corrected from $174,704, which represented the total funds withheld under reinsurance agreements liability, to $4,937, which relates only to the fair value of the embedded derivative; the net investment income table in Note 4 was corrected to incorporate the income from funds held investments of $1,001 and $1,974 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively; the effective tax rate in Note 8 was corrected from 28.2% to 73.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and from 25.5% to 26.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020; and Note 14 has been corrected to reflect the changes to other comprehensive income described above. Use of estimates While preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reported amounts that require extensive use of estimates include the reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses ("LAE"), reinsurance recoveries, investments and goodwill and other intangible assets. Except for the captions on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income, generally, the term loss(es) is used to collectively refer to both loss and LAE. Accounting pronouncements Recently adopted policies In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). This update provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This standard is effective for the period between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Pending policies The Company completed its IPO in July 2020, and is an emerging growth company as defined under federal securities laws. As such, the Company has elected to adopt pending accounting policies under the dates required for private companies. Therefore, the dates included within this section reflect the effective dates for the adoption of new accounting policies required by private companies. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments (ASU 2020-03). This update represents changes to clarify and improve the codification to allow for easier application by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarification on items such as (i) the application of fair value option disclosures; (ii) the accounting for fees related to modifications of debt; and (iii) aligning the contractual term of a net investment in a lease in accordance with ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses , and the lease term determined in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases . The Company adopted items (i) and (ii) effective January 1, 2020 and will adopt item (iii) on January 1, 2023. Adoption of this standard has not had, and is not expected to have, a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323 and Topic 815 (ASU 2020-01). This update addresses the accounting for certain equity securities upon the application or discontinuation of the equity method of accounting. Further, the update addresses scope considerations for forward contracts and purchased options on certain securities. ASU 2020-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods thereafter. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2022. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). This update requires 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. Additionally, 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 the fair value is below the amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the condensed consolidated financial statements. |
