Highlights
- Premiums increased 12.6% in the quarter, driven by growth across all lines of business, with double digit growth continuing in commercial lines, Sonnet, and personal property

- Operating net income1 of $48.8 million in Q2 2022, compared to $52.6 million in Q2 2021, resulting in operating EPS1 of $0.42 per share. Operating ROE1 was 10.7% over the last twelve months

Executive Messages
"The underlying strength in our business, against the backdrop of ongoing firm market conditions, was once again demonstrated by delivering a 95.8% combined ratio in a quarter with the 6th largest catastrophe event in Canadian history. Profitability in personal auto remained strong, but was down from a year ago, reflecting claims frequency moving off pandemic-related lows as well as the impact of inflation on claims severity. Our commercial business is generating solid underwriting results and is well positioned to continue gaining market share. We were pleased with our continued strong top line growth of 12.6% in the quarter. Our underwriting capabilities and pricing sophistication give us confidence in our growth ambitions. Midway through the year, we remain on track to deliver on our financial targets as an innovative, digitally-focused industry leader."
– Rowan Saunders, President & CEO
"The resilience of our business has been on display throughout 2022 as we've maintained a strong financial position in the face of numerous headwinds, including elevated catastrophe losses and a significant correction in capital markets. The rising yield environment again negatively impacted our fixed income investments, and ultimately our book value, but has begun to benefit us in the form of higher net investment income, which is expected to continue in the coming quarters. Solid underwriting and higher net investment income combined to generate an operating ROE of 10.7%. We believe we are well positioned to continue delivering value to shareholders as we grow profitably and deploy our capital in a disciplined manner over time."
– Philip Mather, EVP & CFO

- Gross written premiums ("GWP") for the second quarter of 2022 increased by $110.1 million or 12.6% compared to the second quarter of 2021, driven by growth across all our lines of business. Personal lines GWP was up 10.4% with increases in both our broker and direct businesses. Commercial lines GWP increased 17.9% as we continued to focus on growth in this line of business. Customer relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which ended in May 2022, resulted in a reduction in GWP of approximately $8 million (Q2 2021: $14 million) and a reduction in net earned premiums of approximately $13 million (Q2 2021: $16 million).
Year to date, GWP increased by $193.9 million or 12.6% compared to 2021. Personal lines GWP increased 10.4% and commercial lines GWP increased 18.4%. The impact of the customer relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the first six months of 2022 was a reduction in GWP of approximately $21 million (2021: $28 million) and a reduction in net earned premiums of approximately $26 million (2021: $29 million). - Underwriting results for the second quarter of 2022 produced underwriting income of $34.0 million and a combined ratio of 95.8%, compared to underwriting income of $41.2 million and a combined ratio of 94.1% in the same quarter a year ago. Our underwriting results were strong despite the impact of the significant windstorm in Ontario and Québec in May. Catastrophe losses impacted the combined ratio by 5.8 percentage points, compared to only 1.8 percentage points in the same quarter a year ago. The increase in catastrophe losses was partially offset by higher favourable prior year claims development and an improvement in the core accident year claims ratio.
Year to date, our underwriting income decreased by $5.0 million and led to a combined ratio of 94.0% in 2022 as compared to 92.7% in 2021. Results were impacted by higher catastrophe losses, partially offset by higher favourable prior year claims development and an improvement in the core accident year claims ratio. Catastrophe losses impacted the combined ratio by 4.0 percentage points, compared to only 1.5 percentage points in 2021. - Net investment income increased $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $10.5 million year to date, driven primarily by the investment of funds generated from our underwriting results and business growth, net proceeds retained by the Company from the initial public offering ("IPO") and related transactions, as well as higher fixed income yields.
Net Income and Operating Net Income
- Net income was $21.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $43.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Net income decreased due primarily to higher market value losses on our bond portfolio due to increasing fixed income yields, an investment impairment charge of $19.3 million in the quarter reflective of the significant volatility in equity markets, and lower underwriting income driven by higher catastrophe losses. These were partially offset by higher net investment income.
Year to date, net income was $69.3 million compared to $126.3 million in 2021 due primarily to the same factors that impacted the second quarter. In 2021, we also recorded realized gains of $37.5 million on our equity portfolio that were triggered on the sale of certain investments to facilitate a transfer to a new investment manager for foreign equities.
In the second quarter of 2022 and year to date, the significant increase in fixed income yields resulted in higher market value losses on our bond portfolio, which were largely offset by a discounting recovery on our claim liabilities. - Operating net income decreased to $48.8 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $52.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 driven by lower underwriting income. Year to date, operating net income was $113.4 million compared to $113.2 million in 2021.
- Operating ROE was 10.7% for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2022 compared to 13.5% in 2021. Operating ROE was lower due to the dilutive impact of the large increase in equity year over year, driven by operating net income generated and the net proceeds retained by Definity from the IPO and related transactions.

Personal Insurance
- Overall, personal lines GWP increased 10.4% in the second quarter of 2022 (10.4% year to date). Sonnet GWP was $85.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 13.0% compared to $75.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. Sonnet GWP was $149.7 million year to date, an increase of 17.0% compared to $127.9 million in 2021. Personal lines produced underwriting income of $18.0 million in the quarter compared to $21.2 million in the same quarter a year ago. Year to date, personal lines produced underwriting income of $48.7 million compared to $67.3 million in 2021.
- Personal auto GWP increased 8.6% in the quarter (7.7% year to date), driven by improved retention, an increase in average written premiums, and the growth in Sonnet. In the second quarter of 2022, customer relief related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which ended in May 2022, resulted in a reduction in GWP of approximately $6 million (Q2 2021: $12 million). The combined ratio of 92.7% in the quarter (Q2 2021: 88.4%) increased due primarily to an increase in the core accident year claims ratio driven by higher claims frequency combined with inflationary cost pressures, a decrease in favourable prior year claims development, and an increase in catastrophe losses. Year to date, the personal auto combined ratio was impacted by the same factors as the second quarter.
- Personal property GWP increased 13.4% in the quarter (14.9% year to date), benefitting from continued firm market conditions in our personal property business, higher renewed business, and the growth in Sonnet. The combined ratio was 104.0% in the quarter, an improvement from 109.3% in the same quarter a year ago which included approximately 11 percentage points for an inflation provision that negatively impacted current accident year claims and prior year claims development. Catastrophe losses accounted for 12.5 percentage points to the combined ratio in the second quarter of 2022 (including the windstorm in Ontario and Québec in May) compared to 6.5 percentage points in 2021. The increase in catastrophe losses partly offset the improvement in the core accident year claims ratio as earned rates remained above inflation cost trends, and higher favourable prior year claims development. Year to date, the personal property combined ratio decreased, driven by the same factors as the second quarter.
Commercial Insurance
- Growth in commercial lines continued in the second quarter of 2022. GWP increased 17.9% in the quarter (18.4% year to date), as we benefitted from continued strong broker support, and higher retention levels and strong rate achievement in a firm market environment.
- Commercial lines produced a combined ratio of 92.5% and underwriting income of $16.0 million in the quarter compared to 88.9% and underwriting income of $20.0 million in the same quarter a year ago. The decrease in underwriting income was due to the impact of catastrophe losses, driven by the windstorm in Ontario and Québec in May, and two large fire losses in the quarter. Catastrophe losses accounted for 6.9 percentage points to the combined ratio in the second quarter of 2022 compared to nil in 2021. The increase in catastrophe losses was partially offset by improved prior year claims development and a decrease in the core accident year claims ratio from our improved mix of business and achieving rate increases above cost inflation. The combined ratio in the second quarter of 2021 included approximately 8 percentage points for an inflation provision that negatively impacted current accident year claims and prior year claims development. Year to date, the commercial lines produced a combined ratio of 89.1% and underwriting income of $45.5 million compared to 90.9% and underwriting income of $31.9 million in 2021. The year-to-date commercial lines combined ratio improved due to a decrease in the core accident year claims ratio and higher favourable prior year claims development, partially offset by an increase in catastrophe losses.

- Total equity decreased by $151.6 million since December 31, 2021 driven by market value declines in our bond portfolio due to a significant increase in fixed income yields, and the declines in equity markets. These were partially offset by strong underwriting income and increasing net investment income. Total equity increased $283.7 million since June 30, 2021 and our capital position remains strong, well in excess of both internal and regulatory minimum capital requirements as of June 30, 2022, with a consolidated excess capital position exceeding $620 million and an unlevered balance sheet.

We measure and evaluate performance of our business using a number of financial measures. Among these measures are the "supplementary financial measures", "non-GAAP financial measures", and "non-GAAP ratios" (as such terms are defined under Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure), and in each case are not standardized financial measures under GAAP. The supplementary financial measures, non-GAAP financial measures, and non-GAAP ratios in this news release may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under GAAP. These measures are used by financial analysts and others in the P&C insurance industry and facilitate management's comparisons to our historical operating results in assessing our results and strategic and operational decision-making. For more information about these supplementary financial measures, non-GAAP financial measures, and non-GAAP ratios, including (where applicable) definitions and explanations of how these measures provide useful information, refer to Section 11 – Supplementary financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures and ratios in the Q2-2022 Management's Discussion and Analysis dated August 2, 2022, which is available on our website at www.definityfinancial.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
