Management Commentary
“We entered 2024 with a renewed emphasis on executing on clearly defined strategies that include targeted new business growth, multiple initiatives to enhance our underwriting performance and further modernization of our operations for greater effectiveness and efficiency. Additionally, we committed to a multi-year expense management initiative that is strategically designed to mitigate the 2024 peak impact of allocated expenses associated with the technology advancements Donegal Mutual Insurance Company has implemented in recent years,” said Kevin G. Burke, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Our net premium growth in the first quarter of 2024 was predominantly fueled by ongoing renewal premium increases that were supported by commercial lines new business acquisitions that fit within the framework of our refined underwriting criteria. While the increase in commercial new business writings is notable, it was largely offset by planned attrition from regions earmarked for exit or profit enhancement pursuant to our state-specific strategies.”
He continued, “In the first quarter of 2024, our underwriting profitability reflected the impact of average weather-related losses, higher severity of large fire losses than we experienced in recent quarterly periods and atypical workers’ compensation reserve development related to prior-year losses. We expect that the underwriting enhancements actively underway, in conjunction with an accelerating earned premium impact of rate increases we implemented over the past year will result in further improvement in our underwriting results as the year progresses. We remain steadfast in our commitments to achieve sustained excellent financial performance and to capitalize on opportunities for profitable growth as the means of creating long-term shareholder value.”

Net Premiums Written
The 6.0% increase in net premiums written for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023, as shown in the table above, represents the combination of a 0.5% decrease in commercial lines net premiums written and 18.5% growth in personal lines net premiums written. The $14.1 million increase in net premiums written for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023 included:
Commercial Lines: $0.9 million decrease that we attribute primarily to planned attrition in regions we are exiting or executing ongoing profit improvement initiatives as part of our state-specific strategies, offset partially by modest new business writings, strong premium retention, and a continuation of renewal premium increases in lines other than workers’ compensation.
Personal Lines: $15.0 million increase that we attribute primarily to a continuation of renewal premium rate increases and strong policy retention.
Underwriting Performance
We evaluate the performance of our commercial lines and personal lines segments primarily based upon the underwriting results of our insurance subsidiaries as determined under statutory accounting practices. The following table presents comparative details with respect to the GAAP and statutory combined ratios1 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Loss Ratio
For the first quarter of 2024, the loss ratio increased to 66.3%, compared to 64.2% for the first quarter of 2023. The core loss ratio, which excludes weather-related losses, large fire losses and net favorable development of reserves for losses incurred in prior accident years, was 58.7% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 56.5% for the first quarter of 2023. For the commercial lines segment, the core loss ratio of 59.0% for the first quarter of 2024 increased modestly from 58.2% for the first quarter of 2023. For the personal lines segment, the core loss ratio of 58.1% for the first quarter of 2024 increased from 53.7% for the first quarter of 2023, due largely to ongoing inflationary impacts on loss costs for that segment.
Weather-related losses were $10.8 million, or 4.7 percentage points of the loss ratio, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $14.1 million, or 6.5 percentage points of the loss ratio, for the first quarter of 2023. The weather-related loss ratio for the first quarter of 2024 was in line with our previous five-year first-quarter average.
Large fire losses, which we define as individual fire losses in excess of $50,000, for the first quarter of 2024 were $15.0 million, or 6.6 percentage points of the loss ratio. That amount was substantially higher than the large fire losses of $10.9 million, or 5.1 percentage points of the loss ratio, for the first quarter of 2023. We primarily attribute the increase to higher loss severity compared to the prior-year quarter. We experienced a $2.9 million increase in commercial property fire losses and a $1.1 million increase in homeowner fire losses.
Net favorable development of reserves for losses incurred in prior accident years of $8.4 million decreased the loss ratio for the first quarter of 2024 by 3.7 percentage points, compared to $8.3 million that decreased the loss ratio for the first quarter of 2023 by 3.9 percentage points. Our insurance subsidiaries experienced favorable development primarily in the commercial multi-peril, commercial automobile and homeowners lines of business, offset partially by modest unfavorable development in workers’ compensation, for the first quarter of 2024.
Expense Ratio
The expense ratio was 35.7% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 36.4% for the first quarter of 2023. The decrease in the expense ratio primarily reflected early impacts of expense reduction initiatives, offset partially by higher technology systems-related expenses for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase in technology systems-related expenses was primarily due to increased costs as we continue implementations with respect to our ongoing systems modernization project, a portion of which Donegal Mutual Insurance Company allocates to our insurance subsidiaries. We expect the impact from allocated costs from Donegal Mutual Insurance Company to our insurance subsidiaries related to the ongoing systems modernization project will peak at approximately 1.3 percentage points of the expense ratio for the full year of 2024 before beginning to subside gradually in subsequent years.
Investment Operations
Donegal Group’s investment strategy is to generate an appropriate amount of after-tax income on its invested assets while minimizing credit risk through investment in high-quality securities. As a result, we had invested 96.4% of our consolidated investment portfolio in diversified, highly rated and marketable fixed-maturity securities at March 31, 2024.

Net investment income of $11.0 million for the first quarter of 2024 increased 16.1% compared to $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2023. The increase in net investment income reflected primarily an increase in average investment yield relative to the prior-year first quarter.
Net investment gains were $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to net investment losses of $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2023. We attribute the gains to the increase in the market value of the equity securities we held at the end of March 31, 2024.
Our book value per share was $14.53 at March 31, 2024, compared to $14.39 at December 31, 2023, with the increase partially related to net income, offset partially by $1.6 million of after-tax unrealized losses within our available-for-sale fixed-maturity portfolio during 2024 that decreased our book value by $0.05 per share.
Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We prepare our consolidated financial statements on the basis of GAAP. Our insurance subsidiaries also prepare financial statements based on statutory accounting principles state insurance regulators prescribe or permit (“SAP”). In addition to using GAAP-based performance measurements, we also utilize certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe provide value in managing our business and for comparison to the financial results of our peers. These non-GAAP measures are net premiums written, operating income or loss and statutory combined ratio.
Net premiums written and operating income or loss are non-GAAP financial measures investors in insurance companies commonly use. We define net premiums written as the amount of full-term premiums our insurance subsidiaries record for policies effective within a given period less premiums our insurance subsidiaries cede to reinsurers. We define operating income or loss as net income or loss excluding after-tax net investment gains or losses, after-tax restructuring charges and other significant non-recurring items. Because our calculation of operating income or loss may differ from similar measures other companies use, investors should exercise caution when comparing our measure of operating income or loss to the measure of other companies.

The statutory combined ratio is a non-GAAP standard measurement of underwriting profitability that is based upon amounts determined under SAP. The statutory combined ratio is the sum of:
the statutory loss ratio, which is the ratio of calendar-year incurred losses and loss expenses, excluding anticipated salvage and subrogation recoveries, to premiums earned;
the statutory expense ratio, which is the ratio of expenses incurred for net commissions, premium taxes and underwriting expenses to premiums written; and
the statutory dividend ratio, which is the ratio of dividends to holders of workers’ compensation policies to premiums earned.
The statutory combined ratio does not reflect investment income, federal income taxes or other non-operating income or expense. A statutory combined ratio of less than 100% generally indicates underwriting profitability.
Dividend Information
On April 18, 2024, we declared regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.1725 per share for our Class A common stock and $0.155 per share for our Class B common stock, which are payable on May 22, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 8, 2024.
