ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS AND REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
In connection with the preparation of a Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Company determined that there was an error in prior period financial statements arising from recording a profit commission under a reinsurance contract. The profit commission was due to the Company from a reinsurer under a 2001 accident year aggregate stop loss reinsurance contract effective during the period January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001 and was originally recorded in the second quarter 2002 but portions of such profit commission should have been recorded during each quarter of 2001. As a result the Company will restate its audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 to include the revenue and net income arising from such profit commission in 2001, rather than 2002. The restatement adjustment effect is to increase the Company’s revenue and net income for the year ended December 31, 2001, and decrease the Company’s revenue and net income for the year ended December 31, 2002, by $3.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively.
The decision to restate is based upon the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force No. 93-6, “Accounting for Multiple–Year Retrospectively Rated Contracts by Ceding and Assuming Enterprises”. Based upon these provisions, the Company has determined that under generally acceptable accounting principles it should have been accruing a portion of the profit commission during each period since the inception of the contract based on the actual experience of the underlying business, i.e., net premiums earned less losses incurred. The Company intends to file an amended Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 to reflect this restatement.
The effect of this restatement on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 (the restatement does not affect the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2002) and consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 is shown in the tables below (in thousands, except per share amounts):
