Exhibit 99.1

Comments from Chief Executive Officer, Dan Peed: “During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded yet another profitable period for American Coastal. We also successfully placed our core catastrophe reinsurance program, increasing the exhaustion point of the program from the prior year period and meeting our goal of limiting American Coastal’s retention to less than one quarter’s pre-tax earnings. Moreover, we executed on the final phase of our multi-year strategy to phase out our personal lines operations by signing definitive agreements for the sale of Interboro Insurance Company. We remain focused on delivering long-term shareholder value over time and will continue to explore further opportunities to expand our product offering to meet the needs of the market.”

Exhibit 99.1

Quarterly Financial Results
Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $19.1 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to $17.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023. Of this income, $19.1 million is attributable to continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $2.1 million from net income of $21.2 million for the same period in 2023. Quarter-over-quarter revenues decreased, driven by an increase in ceded premiums earned, partially offset by an increase in gross premiums earned. This was offset by lower expenses quarter-over-quarter, driven by a decrease in policy acquisition costs and operating expenses, partially offset by increased administrative expenses. In addition, the Company's provision for income taxes increased quarter-over-quarter. The continuing operations changes were partially offset by a decrease in the Company's loss from discontinued operations, which decreased $3.5 million quarter-over-quarter, as the deconsolidation of UPC is not impacting the Company in 2024.

The Company's total gross written premium decreased by $7.4 million, or 3.1%, to $229.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, from $236.8 million for the second quarter of 2023. The breakdown of the quarter-over-quarter changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by state and gross written premium by line of business are shown in the table below.

Loss and LAE decreased by $900 thousand, or 5.6%, to $15.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, from $16.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums increased 3.3 points to 24.1% for the second quarter of 2024, compared to 20.8% for the second quarter of 2023. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, the Company's gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the second quarter of 2024 would have been 10.5%, an increase of 0.2 points from 10.3% during the second quarter of 2023.

Policy acquisition costs decreased by $9.6 million, or 40.9%, to $13.9 million for the second quarter of 2024, from $23.5 million for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to an increase in reinsurance ceding commission income, driven by our commercial lines quota share coverage effective June 1, 2023. In addition, agent commission expense decreased, driven by the collection of agent commissions that previously had a valuation allowance booked against them.

Operating and underwriting expenses decreased by $1.0 million, or 33.3%, to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, from $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2023, driven by decreased underwriting costs and decreased overhead costs such as rent, utilities and computer software and services.

General and administrative expenses increased by $3.5 million, or 54.7%, to $9.9 million for the second quarter of 2024, from $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, driven by increased external service costs, such as legal and audit fees. In addition, salary related expenses increased quarter-over-quarter.

Exhibit 99.1
IIC Results Highlights

Net losses attributable to IIC totaled $1.0 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $900 thousand for the second quarter of 2023. Drivers of the quarter-over-quarter increase included: an increase in loss and LAE incurred of $1.3 million due to increased current year non-catastrophe losses, partially offset by increased revenue of $1.2 million driven by both an increase in gross premiums earned of $300 thousand, as a result of rate increases and decrease in ceded premiums earned of $900 thousand driven by changes made to the reinsurance program in 2024. All other IIC expenses remained relatively flat quarter-over-quarter.


Reinsurance Costs as a Percentage of Gross Earned Premium

Reinsurance costs as a percentage of gross earned premium in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
2024 2023
Non-at-Risk (0.2) % (0.4) %
Quota Share (26.4) % (15.2) %
All Other (32.7) % (32.3) %
Total Ceding Ratio (59.3) % (47.9) %

Ceded premiums earned related to the Company's catastrophe excess of loss contracts remained relatively flat. The Company's utilization of quota share reinsurance coverage resulted in less excess of loss coverage needed for the 2023-2024 catastrophe year. The cost associated with this reduction in necessary coverage was offset by rate increases on catastrophe excess of loss coverage for the 2023-2024 catastrophe year. The utilization of quota share reinsurance coverage, as described below, increased the Company's ceding ratio overall.

Reinsurance costs as a percentage of gross earned premium in the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 for IIC, captured within discontinued operations, were as follows:
IIC
2024 2023
Non-at-Risk (2.6) % (2.9) %
Quota Share —  % —  %
All Other (23.8) % (35.4) %
Total Ceding Ratio (26.4) % (38.3) %


Investment Portfolio Highlights

The Company's cash, restricted cash and investment holdings increased from $311.9 million at December 31, 2023 to $572.6 million at June 30, 2024. This increase is driven by our cash flows from operations which have been positive during the first half of 2024. The Company's cash and investment holdings consist of investments in U.S. government and agency securities, corporate debt and investment grade money market instruments. Fixed maturities represented approximately 85.0% of total investments at June 30, 2024 compared to 89.4% of total investments at December 31, 2023. The Company's fixed maturity investments had a modified duration of 2.4 years at June 30, 2024, compared to 3.4 years at December 31, 2023.

Book Value Analysis

Book value per common share increased 28.3% from $3.61 at December 31, 2023, to $4.63 at June 30, 2024. Underlying book value per common share increased 26.7% from $3.97 at December 31, 2023 to $5.03 at June 30, 2024. An increase in the Company's retained earnings as the result of net income in the first six months of 2024, drove the increase in the Company's book value per share. As shown in the table below, removing the effect of AOCI, caused by unfavorable capital market conditions, increases the Company's book value per common share at June 30, 2024.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes that investors' understanding of ACIC's performance is enhanced by the Company's disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. The Company's methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Net income (loss) excluding the effects of amortization of intangible assets, income (loss) from discontinued operations, realized gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities, net of tax (core income (loss)) is a non-GAAP measure that is computed by adding amortization, net of tax, to net income (loss) and subtracting income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, realized gains (losses) on the Company's investment portfolio, net of tax, and unrealized gains (losses) on the Company's equity securities, net of tax, from net income (loss). Amortization expense is related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired, including goodwill, through mergers and, therefore, the expense does not arise through normal operations. Investment portfolio gains (losses) and unrealized equity security gains (losses) vary independent of the Company's operations. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components both separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). The core income (loss) measure should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Core return on equity is a non-GAAP ratio calculated using non-GAAP measures. It is calculated by dividing the core income (loss) for the period by the average stockholders’ equity for the trailing twelve months (or one quarter of such average, in the case of quarterly periods). Core income (loss) is an after-tax non-GAAP measure that is calculated by excluding from net income (loss) the effect of income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, non-cash amortization of intangible assets, including goodwill, unrealized gains or losses on the Company's equity security investments and net realized gains or losses on the Company's investment portfolio. In the opinion of the Company’s management, core income (loss), core income (loss) per share and core return on equity are meaningful indicators to investors of the Company's underwriting and operating results, since the excluded items are not necessarily indicative of operating trends. Internally, the Company’s management uses core income (loss), core income (loss) per share and core return on equity to evaluate performance against historical results and establish financial targets on a consolidated basis. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is return on equity. The core return on equity measure should not be considered a substitute for return on equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Combined ratio excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying combined ratio) is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year development from the combined ratio. The Company believes that this ratio is useful to investors, and it is used by management to highlight the trends in the Company's business that may be obscured by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development. Current year catastrophe losses cause the Company's loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their frequency of occurrence and severity and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year development is caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components both separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered as a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Net loss and LAE excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying loss and LAE) is a non-GAAP measure that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development from net loss and LAE. The Company uses underlying loss and LAE figures to analyze the Company's loss trends that may be impacted by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development on the Company's reserves. As discussed previously, these two items can have a significant impact on the Company's loss trends in a given period. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components both separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE. The underlying loss and LAE measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business.

Book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive loss (underlying book value per common share), is a non-GAAP measure that is computed by dividing common stockholders' equity after excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), by total common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding.

Exhibit 99.1
The Company uses the trend in book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), in conjunction with book value per common share to identify and analyze the change in net worth attributable to management efforts between periods. The Company believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of interest rates that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and are generally driven by economic and financial factors that are not influenced by management. Book value per common share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Book value per common share, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), should not be considered a substitute for book value per common share and does not reflect the recorded net worth of the Company's business.

Discontinued Operations

On May 9, 2024, the Company entered into the Sale Agreement with Forza in which ACIC will sell and Forza will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company's subsidiary, IIC. In addition, on February 27, 2023, the Florida Department of Financial Services was appointed as receiver of the Company's former subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company ("UPC"). As such, prior year financial results and Consolidated Balance Sheet components have been reclassified to reflect continuing and discontinued operations appropriately.

2 Company Overview ACIC is a specialty underwriter of catastrophe exposed property insurance. American Coastal Insurance Corp. (Nasdaq: ACIC) is the insurance holding company for two P&C carriers: American Coastal Insurance Company (AmCoastal) and Interboro Insurance Company (IIC) ¹ along with other operating affiliates. AmCoastal has the #1 market share of commercial residential property insurance (commercial lines) in Florida with roughly 4,000 policies and $656 million of premium in-force. IIC’s homeowners & fire insurance products (personal lines) are written exclusively in New York with approximately 18,000 policies and $36 million of premium in-force. ¹ ACIC as of June 30, 2024 Total Assets: $1.31 billion Total Equity: $223 million Annualized Revenue: $271 million Employees: 65 Headquarters: St. Petersburg, FL Credit Rating: BB+ (Kroll) Specialty Commercial Property Specialty Homeowners ¹ ¹ IIC ‘s results are classified as discontinued operations.


 
3 Executive Summary • Q2-24 Results • Non-GAAP Core Income of $19.6m ($0.40) decreased -$7.5m (-27.6%) from $27.1m ($0.62) y/y on higher ceded earned premiums resulting from the 40% gross CAT quota share effective 6.1.2023. • Gross premiums earned grew $5.6m (+3.7%) to $155.5m y/y. • Our combined ratio of 64.9% was on target but increased 1.8 points from 63.1% in the same period last year. • Current year net catastrophe losses in the quarter were effectively nil and we had $1.0m of favorable prior year reserve development. • Stockholders’ equity attributable to ACIC, increased to $223.1m or $4.63 per share and $5.03 per share excluding unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income. • Other Highlights • Completed catastrophe reinsurance program renewals effective 6.1.24 at lower cost due to replacing FORA and reducing the quota share. This sets up revenue and earnings in the next 4 quarters to compare favorably with the prior year and added more limit for a potential 3rd event and higher severity protection to support future exposure growth. • Executed definitive agreements to divest of Interboro Insurance Company and we anticipate closing during 1Q-25. As a result of the pending sale, IIC is now included in discontinued operations. • Began development of a new apartment product to be distributed and underwritten directly through our MGA, Skyway Underwriters. • Secured extension and regulatory approval of our exclusive MGA agreement with AmRisc to 1.1.29.

10 Underwriting Environment • TIV down -1.7% and policy count down -5.8% YTD, but 100-YR PML up +3.5% due to model change. • Premiums in-force are up 2.0% to $656m with average premium up +8.3% YTD, but average renewal rates started to decline consistent with lower reinsurance costs. • Account retention was near target of 85% and submission volume remains strong, but accounts bound relative to submissions received and quotes provided are down y/y due to pricing. • Market appears to have peaked and is beginning to soften, but renewal pricing is holding close to expiring. AmCoastal is a market leader and expects to maintain its portfolio at comparable terms. • Valuation changes are slowing as replacement cost estimates reflect lower inflation pressure. • Our commercial residential take-out application for the October 27th, 2024 assumption date has been approved by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. Competition remains limited but is getting more aggressive and driving softer market conditions.
