“In 2024, we achieved record levels of in-force premium, strengthened our underlying underwriting profitability, and 
delivered meaningful returns to our shareholders.  As we look to the future, we see significant opportunities to unlock 
additional value at Exzeo and expand its impact across a broader segment of the insurance market.”

Dear Fellow Shareholders,
2024 was a remarkable year by any measure. We successfully managed the impact of three Florida landfalling hurricanes, achieved a
double-digit reduction in our underlying combined ratio, and grew our insurance business by over 20%. Any one of these
accomplishments would define a successful year, but we achieved all three, while also reducing debt and increasing profitability.
Due to claims arising from Hurricanes Debby, Helene, and Milton, we anticipate paying out over half a billion dollars to support our
policyholders in their recovery efforts. Despite these significant events, we achieved strong profitability for the year, reporting diluted
earnings of $8.89 per share. These results underscore the strength and resilience that characterize a well-capitalized insurance
company. HCI remains in a solid and improving financial position.
This has further solidified my conviction that we possess a distinctive advantage absent in the broader industry—our proprietary,
homegrown technology. Our technology supports over $1.2 billion in premiums across the four insurance companies under HCI. But
this represents just 1% of the U.S. homeowners’ insurance market. We can keep the technology to ourselves or, now that it has a
proven track record, offer it to the rest of the industry. At a time when insurance companies everywhere are under pressure, we offer
them a different, more optimistic path.
Therefore, at the end of 2024, we reorganized our operations to establish our market-leading technology platform and insurance
management operations as a standalone business unit, now known as Exzeo Group Inc. In conjunction with this reorganization, we are
actively exploring strategic opportunities to expand Exzeo’s reach and deliver our technology to a broader segment of the insurance
market.
Beyond insurance and technology, we have other businesses that would be considered successful if they did not live in the shadows of
our insurance operations.
Our real estate subsidiary – Greenleaf – has now bought several properties, improved their market value, and then sold them at a
profit. We continue to own several premier assets, whose book value reflects their original purchase price, while their true worth
continues to appreciate over time.
Our in-house reinsurance subsidiary – Claddaugh – is growing in size. A business that we started with $2 million of shareholder
capital, is now one of the best performing reinsurers based on long-term return on equity. Again, the value creation may not be
obvious but it is growing as well.
Finally, we have a claims handling group – Griston – that handled over 22,000 claims across multiple states and multiple catastrophe
events in 2024. Despite each claim being handled individually, because each individual policyholder needs assistance, it is now being
done with tremendous efficiency because of the technology developed by Exzeo.
In closing, we are proud of our execution and financial performance in 2024. We achieved record levels of in-force premium,
strengthened our underlying underwriting profitability, and delivered meaningful returns to our shareholders. As we look to the future,
we see significant opportunities to unlock additional value through our technology developed by Exzeo and expand its impact across a
broader segment of the insurance market. We remain focused on disciplined growth, innovation, and creating long-term value for all
stakeholders.
Sincerely,
Paresh Patel
Chairman & CEO

PART I
ITEM 1 – Business
General
Incorporated in 2006, HCI Group, Inc. is a Florida-based company that, through its subsidiaries, is
engaged in property and casualty insurance, information technology services, insurance management, real estate
and reinsurance. References to “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company,” or “HCI” in this Form 10-K generally refer to
HCI Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Our principal executive offices are located at 3802 Coconut Palm Drive,
Tampa, Florida 33619, and our telephone number is (813) 849-9500.
As described in Change in Segment Information under Note 1 — “Nature of Operations” to our
consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our organizational change
during the third quarter of 2024 has grouped all insurance subsidiaries into one single operating segment to
enhance operational efficiency and simplify financial reporting. Accordingly, we manage our operations in the
following organizational segments, based on managerial emphasis and evaluation of financial and operating
performances:
a) Insurance Operations
•
Property and casualty insurance
•
Reinsurance and other auxiliary operations
b) TypTap Group
•
Insurance management services
•
Information technology
•
Reinsurance brokerage services
c) Reciprocal Exchange Operations
d) Real Estate Operations
e) Other Operations
•
Attorney-in-fact services
•
Holding company operations
Insurance Operations
Property and Casualty Insurance
We currently have three insurance subsidiaries. Our active insurance subsidiaries are Homeowners
Choice Property & Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (“HCPCI”) and TypTap Insurance Company (“TTIC”). A
third insurance subsidiary, perRisk Insurance Company, has yet to conduct its surplus lines insurance business.
We use internally developed software technologies to drive efficiency in claim processing and claims
settlements, identify profitable underwriting opportunities, generate savings and streamline operations across our
insurance operations. In addition, software is also used to analyze potential and current properties based on
statistical models for catastrophic events, allowing us to pursue the optimal candidates for insurance coverage.
Our insurance subsidiaries provide various forms of residential insurance products such as homeowners
insurance, fire insurance, and wind-only insurance to homeowners, condominium owners and tenants for
properties primarily located in Florida and in various states outside of Florida. We formerly provided flood
insurance coverage in Florida. However, the offering of flood insurance policies was terminated in 2023 due to
the reduced availability and affordability of flood reinsurance coverage. Although we conduct insurance business
in many states, Florida remains our primary market.
2

Our insurance business has grown both organically and through strategic policy assumptions, which
have been a key driver of our expansion. We have participated in legislatively mandated take-out programs,
designed to reduce the state’s risk exposure by transitioning policies from Citizens Property Insurance
Corporation (“Citizens”), a Florida state supported insurer, to private insurers. We selectively pursue additional
assumption opportunities with Citizens when they align with our risk appetite and growth strategy. We also
accepted the transfer or assumption of policies from other insurance companies in Florida and/or any other state
in which we operate. The table below shows the number of policies assumed from Citizens by our insurance
subsidiaries and annualized gross premiums during the last two years:
Year

$315,062
2023
59,860
224,789
Total
112,665
$539,851
Reinsurance and other auxiliary operations
We have a Bermuda domiciled wholly owned reinsurance subsidiary, Claddaugh Casualty Insurance
Company Ltd (“Claddaugh”). We selectively retain risk in Claddaugh, reducing the cost of third party
reinsurance. Claddaugh fully collateralizes its exposure to a ceding company by depositing funds into a trust
account. Claddaugh may mitigate a portion of its risk through retrocession contracts, however Claddaugh did not
enter into any retrocession contracts for the 2024-2025 treaty year. Currently, Claddaugh does not provide
reinsurance to non-affiliates. Other auxiliary operations include claim adjusting and processing services.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, revenues from insurance operations before
intracompany elimination represented 82.3%, 86.9% and 95.4%, respectively, of total revenues of all operating
segments. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, insurance operations’ total assets represented 83.7% and 87.0%,
respectively, of the combined assets of all operating segments. See Note 17 — “Segment Information” to our
consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Nature of Our Insurance Business
The nature of our business is to cover losses that may arise from, among other things, hurricanes and
other catastrophic events such as tornadoes, floods and winter storms. The occurrence of any such catastrophes
could have a significant adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. To mitigate
the risk associated with catastrophic events, we purchase reinsurance from other large insurance companies. Even
without catastrophic events, we may incur losses and loss adjustment expenses that deviate substantially from our
estimates and that may exceed our reserves, in which case our net income and capital would decrease. Our
operating and growth strategies may also be impacted by regulation of our business by the State of Florida and
other states in which we operate. For example, insurance regulators must approve our policy forms and premium
rates as well as monitor our compliance with financial and regulatory requirements. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors,”
below.
Insurance Business Strategy
We operate in highly competitive markets where we face competition from national, regional and
residual market insurance companies. We may also face competition from new entrants in our markets, and such
entrants may create pricing pressure that could lead to overall premium reductions.
Our competitive strategies focus on the following key areas:
•
Exceptional service – We are committed to maintaining superior service to our policyholders and
agents.
3

•
Claims settlement practices – We focus on fair and timely settlement of policyholder claims.
•
Disciplined underwriting – We analyze exposures and utilize available underwriting data to ensure
policies meet our selective criteria.
•
New product offerings – We may cross-sell additional insurance products to our existing
policyholders in order to broaden our lines of business and product mix or identify other lines of
insurance to offer.
•
Effective and efficient use of technology – We strive to add or improve technology that can
effectively and efficiently enhance service to our policyholders and agents. For instance, we use
our internally developed application, ClaimColonyTM, to increase the efficiency of our claims
processing and settlement.
•
Geographical expansion – We continue to pursue opportunities to further expand our business
within the state of Florida and in other states to increase overall geographic diversification.
HCPCI and TTIC currently have regulatory approvals to underwrite residential property and
casualty insurance in various states.
•
Distribution channel – We continue to improve our relationship with independent agents through
collaboration and implementation of technologies that facilitate independent agents in finding the
right insurance policies for their clients. In fact, this agency relationship is essential to the organic
growth of TTIC.
Seasonality of Our Insurance Business
Our insurance business is seasonal. Hurricanes and tropical storms affecting Florida, our primary
market, and other southeastern states typically occur during the period from June 1st through November 30th of
each year. Winter storms in the northeast usually occur during the period between December 1st and March 31st
of each year. In addition, our reinsurance contracts are generally effective June 1st of each year, and any variation
in the cost of our reinsurance, whether due to changes in reinsurance rates, coverage levels or changes in the total
insured value of our policy base, will be reflected in our financial results beginning June 1st of each year.
Government Regulation over Insurance Business
We are subject to the laws and regulations in any state in which we conduct our insurance business.
The regulations cover all aspects of our business and are generally designed to protect the interests of insurance
policyholders as opposed to the interests of shareholders. Such regulations relate to a wide variety of financial
and non-financial matters including:
•
authorized lines of business;
•
capital and surplus requirements;
•
approval of allowable rates and forms;
•
approval of reinsurance contracts;
•
investment parameters;
•
underwriting limitations;
•
transactions with affiliates;
•
dividend limitations;
•
changes in control; and
•
market conduct.
4

Our failure to comply with certain provisions of applicable insurance laws and regulations could have a
material, adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
State Licensure and Approval
All states require licensure and regulatory approval prior to the marketing of insurance products.
Typically, licensure review is comprehensive and includes a review of a company’s business plan, solvency,
reinsurance, rates, and forms, the character of its officers and directors and other of its financial and non-financial
aspects. The regulatory authorities may prevent entry into a new market by not granting a license. In addition,
regulatory authorities may preclude or delay our entry into markets by disapproving or withholding approval of
our product filings.
Statutory Reporting and Examination
All insurance companies must file quarterly and annual statements with certain regulatory agencies in
any state in which they are licensed to transact business and are subject to regular and special examinations by
those agencies. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners mandates that all insurance companies be
examined a minimum of once every five years. However, the Florida Department of Financial Services, Office of
Insurance Regulation (“FLOIR”) has the authority to conduct an examination whenever it is deemed appropriate.
As of the date of issuance of this report, the FLOIR is conducting a financial examination of our insurance
subsidiaries, HCPCI and TTIC, for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Liability for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
Our liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses represents our estimate of the total cost of
(i) claims that have been incurred, but not yet paid (“case reserves”), (ii) losses that have been “incurred but not
yet reported” (“IBNR”), and (iii) loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) which are intended to cover the ultimate cost
of adjusting, investigating and settling claims, including investigation and defense of lawsuits resulting from such
claims. We base our estimates on various assumptions and actuarial data we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. The process of estimating the liability is inherently subjective and is influenced by many variables
such as past loss experience, current claim trends and the prevailing social, economic and legal environments.
Significant time can elapse between the occurrence of an insured loss, the reporting of the loss to us
and our payment of that loss. Our liability for losses and LAE, which we believe represents the best estimate at a
given point in time based on facts, circumstances and historical trends then known, may necessarily be adjusted
to reflect additional facts that become available during the loss settlement period.
For a discussion and summary of the activity in the liability for losses and LAE for the years ended
December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, see Note 15 — “Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” to our consolidated
financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Loss Development
Our liability for losses and LAE represents estimated costs ultimately required to settle all claims for a
given period. See Note 15 — “Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” to our consolidated financial statements
under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the net incurred and paid loss development tables for the
years 2015 through 2024 and their reconciliation to the estimated liability for losses and LAE as of December 31,
2024.
TypTap Group
TypTap Insurance Group, Inc. (“TTIG”), our majority-owned subsidiary, currently has four
subsidiaries: TypTap Management Company (“TTM”), Exzeo USA, Inc., Dark Horse Re, LLC, and Cypress

Through our subsidiary Dark Horse Re, we provide expert reinsurance brokerage services to help
insurance companies manage risk by acting as an intermediary between the insurer client and reinsurers. We
design tailored reinsurance solutions by assessing our insurer client’s risk portfolio.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, revenues from TypTap Group before
intracompany elimination represented 12.5%, 11.6% and 0.6%, respectively, of total revenues of all operating
segments. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, TypTap Group’s total assets represented 3.6% and 1.9%,
respectively, of the combined assets of all operating segments. See Note 17 — “Segment Information” to our
consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Reciprocal Exchange Operations
Reciprocal Exchange Operations refer to the activities of consolidated variable interest entities, Condo
Owners Reciprocal Exchange (“CORE”) and Tailrow Insurance Exchange (“Tailrow”). CORE provides
commercial residential multiple peril insurance, while Tailrow specializes in fire and homeowners multiple peril
insurance. At the reporting date, Tailrow had yet to commence its insurance operations.
A reciprocal insurance exchange is a policyholder-owned entity where members, known as subscribers,
gain ownership by purchasing an insurance policy. These subscribers collectively assume one another’s risks by
exchanging insurance contracts, effectively acting as both insurers and insureds. The exchange’s operations are
managed by an attorney-in-fact (“AIF”) company, which oversees general administration, marketing,
underwriting, accounting, policy administration, claims adjusting, and information technology.
Real Estate Operations
Our real estate operations consist of multiple properties we own and operate for investment purposes
and also properties we own and use for our own operations.
Properties Used in Operations
Our real estate used in operations consists of an office building located in the Sabal Palms Industrial
Park in Tampa, Florida with gross area of 63,880 square feet, our insurance operations site with gross area of
approximately 16,000 square feet in Ocala, Florida, as well as an office building located in the Westshore district
of Tampa, Florida with a gross area of 71,177 square feet. The Ocala location, in addition to day-to-day
operational use, serves as our alternative site in the event we experience any significant disruption at our Tampa

and other information regarding issuers, which can be accessed via the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
ITEM 1A – Risk Factors
Our business is subject to a number of risks, including those described below, which could have a
material effect on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity and could cause our operating results
to vary significantly from period to period.
Business and operational risks
Our historical revenue growth was derived primarily through policy assumptions and acquisitions. We cannot
guarantee that future policy assumptions and acquisitions will be available to the extent they have in the past.
A substantial portion of our historical revenue has been generated from policies assumed from Citizens
and other insurance companies, our acquisition of policies from several Florida insurance companies, and
subsequent renewals of these policies. Our ability to grow our premium base may depend upon the availability of
future policy assumptions and acquisitions upon acceptable terms. We cannot provide assurance that such
opportunities will arise in the future.
Although we have begun providing insurance services in other states, our insurance business is primarily in
Florida. Thus, any catastrophic event or other condition affecting losses in Florida could adversely affect our
financial condition and results of operations.
Any catastrophic event, a destructive weather pattern, a general economic trend, regulatory
developments or other conditions specifically affecting the state of Florida could have a disproportionately
adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While we actively manage our
exposure to catastrophic events through our underwriting process and the purchase of reinsurance, the fact that
our business is concentrated in the state of Florida subjects it to increased exposure to certain catastrophic events
and destructive weather patterns such as hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornadoes. Changes in the prevailing
regulatory, legal, economic, political, demographic and competitive environment, and other conditions in the
state of Florida could also make it less attractive for us to do business in Florida and would have a more
pronounced effect on our business than it would on other insurance companies that are more geographically
10

diversified. Since our business is concentrated in this manner, the occurrence of one or more catastrophic events
or other conditions affecting losses in the state of Florida could have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, and/or results of operations.
Our results may fluctuate based on many factors including cyclical changes in the insurance industry.
The insurance industry historically has been cyclical, characterized by periods of intense price
competition due to excessive underwriting capacity, as well as periods when shortages of capacity permitted an
increase in pricing and, thus, more favorable underwriting profits. As premium levels increase, there may be new
entrants to the market, which could subsequently lead to a decrease in premium levels. Any of these factors could
lead to a significant reduction in premium rates in future periods, less favorable policy terms and fewer
opportunities to underwrite insurance risks, which could have a material, adverse effect on our results of
operations and cash flows. In addition to these considerations, changes in the frequency and severity of losses
suffered by insureds and insurers may affect the cycles of the insurance business significantly.
We cannot predict whether market conditions will improve, remain constant or deteriorate. Negative
market conditions may impair our ability to write insurance at rates that we consider appropriate relative to the
risk assumed. If we cannot write insurance at appropriate rates, our business would be materially and adversely
affected.
We rely on highly skilled and experienced personnel and if we are unable to attract, retain or motivate key
personnel or hire qualified personnel, our business may be seriously harmed. In addition, the loss of our chief
executive officer or other key senior management personnel could harm our business and future prospects.
Our performance largely depends on the talents and efforts of highly-skilled and experienced
individuals. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain
highly skilled and experienced personnel and, if we are unable to hire and train a sufficient number of qualified
employees for any reason, we may not be able to maintain or implement our current initiatives or grow, or our
business may contract and we may lose market share. Moreover, certain of our competitors or other insurance or
technology businesses may seek to hire our employees. We cannot assure you that we will provide adequate
incentives to attract, retain and motivate employees in the future. If we do not succeed in attracting, retaining and
motivating highly qualified personnel, our business may be seriously harmed.
Our operations are highly dependent on the efforts of our senior executive officers, particularly our
chief executive officer, Paresh Patel, as well as our chief financial officer, Mark Harmsworth, and the President
of our Real Estate Division, Anthony Saravanos. The loss of their leadership, industry knowledge and experience
could negatively impact our operations. However, we have management succession plans to lessen any such
negative impact. We maintain key-man life insurance on Mr. Patel although such policy may be insufficient to
cover the damage resulting from the loss of Mr. Patel’s services.
Our information technology systems may fail or be disrupted, which could adversely affect our business.
Our insurance business is highly dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our
computer and data processing systems. We rely on these systems to perform underwriting and other modeling
functions necessary for writing business, as well as to handle our policy administration process (i.e., the printing
and mailing of our policies, endorsements, renewal notices, etc.). The failure or disruption of these systems could
interrupt our operations and result in a material, adverse effect on our business.
The growth of our insurance business is dependent upon the successful development and
implementation of advanced computer and data processing systems as well as the development and deployment
of new information technologies to streamline our operations, including policy underwriting, production and
administration and claim processing. The failure of these systems to function as planned could slow our growth
11

and adversely affect our future business volume and results of operations. Additionally, our computer and data
processing systems could become obsolete or could cease to provide a competitive advantage in policy
underwriting, production and administration and claim processing which could negatively affect our future
results of operations.
We conduct our business primarily from offices located in Tampa, Florida where tropical storms could
damage our facilities or interrupt our power supply. We currently provide a hybrid work from home strategy for
a majority of our workforce. This availability is provided through our highly available redundant cloud
infrastructure. The loss or significant impairment of functionality in these facilities for any reason could have a
material, adverse effect on our business. We believe this hybrid work strategy and redundant cloud infrastructure
provides sufficient redundancies to replace our facilities if functionality is impaired. We contract with a third-
party vendor to maintain complete daily backups of our systems, which are stored at the vendor’s facility in
Atlanta, Georgia. We additionally use industry leading internet cloud infrastructure providers to host some of our
data processing systems. These cloud providers ensure redundancy across geographic regions with additional
daily system backups. Access to these databases and hosted environments is strictly controlled and limited to
authorized personnel. In the event of a disaster causing a complete loss of functionality at our Tampa locations,
we plan to use our alternative office in Ocala, Florida temporarily to continue our operations.
Increased competition, competitive pressures, industry developments, and market conditions could affect the
growth of our business and adversely impact our financial results.
The property and casualty insurance industry is cyclical and highly competitive. We compete not only
with other stock companies but also with mutual companies, other underwriting organizations and alternative
risk-sharing mechanisms. Our principal lines of business are written by numerous other insurance companies.
Competition for any one account may come from very large, well-established national companies, smaller
regional companies, other specialty insurers in our field, and new entrants to the market. Many of these
competitors have greater financial resources, larger agency networks and greater name recognition than our
company. Additionally, our competitors may merge or acquire one another and further increase their combined
financial resources and agency networks. We compete for business not only on the basis of price, but also on the
basis of financial strength, types of coverage offered, availability of coverage desired by customers, commission
structure, and quality of service. We may have difficulty continuing to compete successfully on any of these
bases in the future. Competitive pressures coupled with market conditions may affect our rate of premium growth
and financial results.
HCPCI and TTIC have each obtained a Demotech rating of “A Exceptional,” which is accepted by
major mortgage companies operating in the state of Florida and many other states. Mortgage companies may
require homeowners to obtain property insurance from an insurance company with an acceptable A.M. Best
rating, which we do not currently have. Such a requirement could prevent us from expanding our business unless
we obtain such rating, which may in turn limit our ability to compete with large, national insurance companies
and certain regional insurance companies. A downgrade or loss of our Demotech rating could result in a
substantial loss of business in the event insureds move their business to insurers with a sufficient financial
strength rating. A credit rating downgrade could also result in a significant reduction in the number of policies
that our agency networks can sell.
There are inherent limitations and risks related to our projections and our estimates of claims and loss
reserves. If our actual losses exceed our loss reserves, our financial results, our ability to expand our business,
and our ability to compete in the property and casualty insurance industry may be negatively affected. In
addition, industry developments could further increase competition in our industry. These developments could
include—
•
an influx of new capital in the marketplace as existing companies attempt to expand their businesses
and new companies attempt to enter the insurance business because of better pricing and/or terms;
12

•
new programs or changes to existing programs in which federally or state-sponsored entities provide
property insurance in catastrophe-prone areas or other alternative markets;
•
changes in Florida’s or any other states’ regulatory climate; and
•
the enactment of federal proposals for an optional federal charter that would allow some competing
insurers to operate under regulations different or less stringent than those applicable to our insurance
subsidiaries.
These developments and others could make the property and casualty insurance marketplace more
competitive by increasing the supply of insurance available.
If competition limits our ability to write new business at adequate rates, our future results of operations
would be adversely affected.
If our actual losses from claims exceed our loss reserves, our financial results would be adversely affected.
Our objective is to establish loss reserves that are adequate and represent management’s best estimate
of the ultimate cost to investigate and settle each specific claim. However, the process of establishing adequate
reserves is complex and inherently uncertain, and the ultimate cost of a claim may vary materially from the
amounts reserved. We regularly monitor and evaluate loss and loss adjustment expense reserve development to
determine reserve adequacy.
Due to these uncertainties, the ultimate losses may vary materially from current loss reserves which
could have a material, adverse effect on our future financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our failure to pay claims accurately could adversely affect our insurance business, financial results and
capital requirements.
We rely on our claims personnel to accurately evaluate and pay the claims made under our policies.
Many factors could affect our ability to accurately evaluate and pay claims, including the accuracy of our
independent adjusters as they make their assessments and submit their estimates of damages; the training,
background, and experience of our claims representatives; the ability of our claims personnel to ensure consistent
claims processing given the input by our independent adjusters; the ability of our claims department to translate
the information provided by our independent adjusters into acceptable claims settlements; and the ability of our
claims personnel to maintain and update our claims processing procedures and systems as they evolve over time
based on claims and geographical trends in claims reporting. Any failure to pay claims accurately could lead to
material litigation, undermine our reputation in the marketplace, impair our corporate image and negatively affect
our financial results.
The effects of emerging claim and coverage issues on our business are uncertain.
As industry practices and legal, judicial, social and other environmental conditions change, unexpected
and unintended issues related to claims and coverage may emerge. These issues may adversely affect our
business by either extending coverage beyond our underwriting intent or by increasing the number or size of
claims. In some instances, these changes may not become apparent until sometime after we have issued insurance
contracts that are affected by the changes. As a result, the full extent of liability under our insurance contracts
may not be known for many years after a contract is issued and renewed, and our financial position and results of
operations may be adversely affected as a result of any such unforeseen changes.
13

Failure to maintain our risk-based capital at the required levels could adversely affect our ability to maintain
regulatory authority to conduct our business.
Our insurance subsidiaries are required to have sufficient capital and surplus in order to comply with
insurance regulatory requirements, support our business operations and minimize our risk of insolvency. Failure
to maintain adequate risk-based capital at the required levels could result in increasingly onerous reporting and
examination requirements and could adversely affect our ability to maintain regulatory authority to conduct our
business.
If we are unable to expand our business because our capital must be used to pay greater than anticipated
claims, our financial results may suffer.
Our future growth will depend on our ability to expand the number of insurance policies we write, to
expand the kinds of insurance products we offer, and to expand the geographic markets in which we do business,
all balanced by the insurance risks we choose to write and cede. Our existing sources of funds include operations,
investment holdings, and a bank credit facility. Unexpected catastrophic events in our market areas, such as
hurricanes, may result in greater claims losses than anticipated, which could require us to limit or halt our growth
while we redeploy our capital to pay these unanticipated claims unless we can raise additional capital.
Reinsurance coverage may not be available to us in the future at commercially reasonable rates or at all and
we risk non-collectability of reinsurance amounts due us from reinsurers with which we have contracted.
Reinsurance is a method of transferring part of an insurance company’s liability under an insurance
policy to another insurance company, or reinsurer. We use reinsurance arrangements to limit and manage the
amount of risk we retain, to stabilize our underwriting results and to increase our underwriting capacity. The cost
of such reinsurance is subject to prevailing market conditions beyond our control, such as the amount of capital
in the reinsurance market and the occurrence of natural and man-made catastrophes. We cannot be assured that
reinsurance will remain continuously available to us in the amounts we consider sufficient and at prices
acceptable to us. As a result, we may determine to increase the amount of risk we retain or look for other
alternatives to reinsurance, which could in turn have a material, adverse effect on our financial position, results of
operations and cash flows.
With respect to the reinsurance contracts we currently have in effect, our ability to recover amounts
due from reinsurers is subject to such reinsurers’ ability and willingness to pay and to meet their obligations to
us. We attempt to select financially strong reinsurers with an A.M. Best rating of “A-” or better or we require the
reinsurer to fully collateralize its exposure. While we monitor from time to time the financial condition of our
reinsurers, we rely principally on A.M. Best, our reinsurance broker, and other rating agencies in determining
their ability to meet their obligations to us. Any failure on the part of any one reinsurance company to meet its
obligations to us could have a material, adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
The failure of the risk mitigation strategies we utilize could have a material, adverse effect on our financial
condition or results of operations.
We utilize a number of strategies to mitigate risk exposure within our insurance business, which
include:
•
engaging in vigorous underwriting;
•
carefully evaluating terms and conditions of our policies;
•
focusing on our risk aggregations by geographic zones and other bases; and
•
ceding insurance risk to reinsurance companies.
14

However, there are inherent limitations in these strategies. We cannot provide assurance that an
unanticipated event or series of events will not result in loss levels which could have a material, adverse effect on
our financial condition or results of operations.
The failure of any of the loss limitation methods we employ could have a material, adverse effect on our
financial condition or our results of operations.
Our insurance underwriting process is generally designed to limit our exposure to known and
manageable risks. Various provisions of our policies, such as limitations or exclusions from coverage, which
have been negotiated to limit our risks, may not be enforceable in the manner we intend.
In addition, the policies we issue contain conditions requiring the prompt reporting of claims to us and
our right to decline coverage in the event of a violation of that condition. While our insurance product exclusions
and limitations reduce the loss exposure to us and help eliminate known exposures to certain risks, it is possible
that a court or regulatory authority could nullify or void an exclusion or legislation could be enacted modifying
or barring the use of such endorsements and limitations in a way that would adversely affect our loss experience,
which changes could have a material, adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
If our customers were to claim that the policies they purchased failed to provide adequate or appropriate
coverage, we could face claims that could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Although we aim to provide adequate and appropriate coverage under each of our policies, customers
could purchase policies that prove to be inadequate or inappropriate. If such customers were to bring a claim or
claims alleging that we failed in our responsibilities to provide them with the type or amount of coverage that
they sought to purchase, we could be found liable for amounts significantly in excess of the policy limit, resulting
in an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we maintain errors and
omissions insurance coverage to protect us against such liability, such coverage may be insufficient or
inadequate.
Now and in the future, we may rely on independent agents to write our insurance policies, and if we are not
able to contract with and retain independent agents, our revenues would be negatively affected.
We must compete with other insurers for independent agents’ business. Our competitors may offer a
greater variety of insurance products, lower premiums for insurance coverage, or higher commissions to their
agents. If our products, pricing and commissions do not remain competitive, we may find it more difficult to
attract business from independent agents to sell our products. A material reduction in the amount of our products
that independent agents sell could negatively affect our revenues.
Our success depends on our ability to accurately price the risks we underwrite.
The results of our operations and our financial condition depend on our ability to underwrite and set
premium rates accurately for a wide variety of risks and other new product offerings. Rate adequacy is necessary
to generate sufficient premiums to pay losses, loss adjustment expenses, and underwriting expenses and to earn a
profit. To price our products accurately, we must collect and properly analyze a substantial amount of data;
develop, test and apply appropriate rating formulas; closely monitor and timely recognize changes in trends; and
project both severity and frequency of losses with reasonable accuracy. Our ability to undertake these efforts
successfully, and thus, price our products accurately, is subject to several risks and uncertainties, some of which
are outside of our control, including—
•
the availability of sufficient reliable data;
•
the uncertainties that inherently characterize estimates and assumptions;
•
our selection and application of appropriate rating and pricing techniques;
15

•
changes in legal standards, claim settlement practices, and restoration costs; and
•
legislatively imposed consumer initiatives.
In addition, we could underprice risks, which would negatively affect our profit margins. We could
also overprice risks, which could reduce our retention, sales volume and competitiveness. The foregoing factors
could materially and adversely affect our profitability.
Our operations in India expose us to additional risks, which could negatively impact our business, operating
results, and financial condition.
Our India operations expose us to additional risks including income tax risks, currency exchange rate
fluctuations and risks related to other challenges caused by distance, language, and compliance with Indian labor
laws and other complex foreign and U.S. laws and regulations that apply to our India operations. These numerous
and sometimes conflicting laws and regulations include anti-corruption laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act, and other local laws prohibiting corrupt payments to governmental officials, among others.
Violations of these laws and regulations could result in fines and penalties, or criminal sanctions against us, our
officers, or our employees. Although policies and procedures are designed to ensure compliance with these laws
and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, or agents will not violate our policies.
Our acquired renewal rights intangible assets can be subject to impairment charges which can adversely affect
our financial results.
We evaluate our renewal rights intangible assets when impairment indicators are present to determine
if there has been any impairment in their carrying value. If we determine an impairment has occurred, we are
required to record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its estimated fair
value. The assumptions underlying our fair value estimates are subject to uncertainties including, but not limited
to, policy attrition rates, changes in premium rates, marketplace competition, policyholder behavior, and
regulatory changes. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter our
assumptions, the future cash flows estimated in our impairment analysis may materially differ from our actual
results.
The insolvency and receivership of United Property & Casualty Insurance Company could adversely affect
our financial results.
In 2023, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company, an insurer for which we provided
reinsurance, was placed into receivership by the State of Florida due to its financial insolvency. As a result, our
agreements with United were terminated. Although there have been withdrawals from funds held in trust in
settlement for claims and claims processing services, we cannot predict the actions a receiver might take with
regards to restrictions on, or use of, funds held in trust. Any such actions could have a material adverse effect on
our financial position and results of operations.
Any lack of business or financial success by a reciprocal insurance exchange we manage could diminish our
expected management fee revenue and damage our business reputation.
The reciprocal insurance exchanges, which we manage, may enter into the business of providing
certain insurance coverage, a product and market which is new to us and for which we have limited experience.
In managing this business, we could encounter unexpected challenges, including, for example, challenges in
accurately assessing risk, determining appropriate pricing, and establishing adequate reserves. Although our risk
of loss in connection with the reciprocal insurance exchanges is currently limited to the surplus notes, any lack of
business or financial success could not only diminish the management fee revenue we expect to generate from
16

that enterprise, but also damage our insurance management reputation and consequently diminish opportunities
to generate management fee revenue from future similar enterprises as well as diminish the value of the overall
HCI enterprise.
Financial risks
HCI Group, Inc. depends on the ability of its subsidiaries to generate and transfer funds to meet its debt
obligations.
HCI Group, Inc. does not have significant revenue-generating operations of its own. Our ability to
make scheduled payments on our debt obligations depends on the financial condition and operating performance
of our subsidiaries. If the funds we receive from our subsidiaries, some of which are subject to regulatory
restrictions on the payment of distributions, are insufficient to meet our debt obligations, we may be required to
raise funds through the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, reduce or suspend dividend payments, or
sell assets.
We may require additional capital in the future which may not be available or may only be available on
unfavorable terms.
Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including our ability to write new business
successfully and to establish premium rates and reserves at levels sufficient to cover losses. To the extent that our
present capital is insufficient to meet future operating requirements or to cover losses, we may need to raise
additional funds through financings or curtail our growth. Based on our current operating plan, we believe
current capital together with our anticipated retained income will support our operations. However, we cannot
provide any assurance in that regard, since many factors will affect our capital needs and their amount and
timing, including our growth and profitability, and the availability of reinsurance, as well as possible acquisition
opportunities, market disruptions and other unforeseeable developments. If we require additional capital, it is
possible that equity or debt financing may not be available at all or may be available only on terms unfavorable
to us. Equity financings could result in dilution to our shareholders, and in any case such securities may have
rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to those of existing shareholders. If we cannot obtain adequate
capital on favorable terms or at all, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially
affected.
Our credit agreement contains restrictions that can limit our flexibility in operating our business.
The agreement governing our revolving credit facility contains various covenants that limit our ability
to engage in certain transactions. These covenants limit our and our subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things:
•
incur additional indebtedness;
•
declare or make any restricted payments;
•
create liens on any of our assets now owned or hereafter acquired;
•
consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets now owned or
hereafter acquired; and
•
enter into certain transactions with our affiliates.
An increase in interest rates may negatively impact our operating results and financial condition.
Borrowings under our revolving credit facility have a variable rate of interest. An increase in interest
rate would have a negative impact on our results of operations attributable to increased interest expense.
17

Investment risks
There may be limited markets for and restrictions on certain holdings in our investment portfolio.
Certain holdings in our investment portfolio include limited partnership interests and commercial real
estate. We may increase our holdings in these types of investments as we pursue further diversification. These
investments may be illiquid in the near term as they are privately placed and are subject to certain restrictions or
conditions that may limit our ability to immediately dispose of the investments. If it becomes necessary to sell
any of these investments at a time when the fair market value is below our carrying value, we may incur
significant losses which could have a material adverse effect on our net income and financial position.
Our financial results may be negatively affected by the fact that a portion of our income is generated by the
investment of our available cash.
A portion of our income is, and likely will continue to be, generated by the investment of our available
cash. The amount of income so generated is a function of our investment policy, available investment
opportunities, and the amount of available cash invested. Fluctuating interest rates and other economic factors
make it difficult to estimate accurately the amount of investment income that will be realized. In fact, we have
realized and may in the future realize losses on sales of our investments as well as credit losses on our investment
holdings. Any unfavorable change to the fair value of our equity securities will also impact our financial results.
Our revenue from real estate investments may be affected by the success and economic viability of our anchor
retail tenants. Our reliance on a single or significant tenant at certain properties may impact our ability to
lease vacated space and adversely affect returns on the specific property.
At certain retail centers, we may have tenants, commonly referred to as anchor tenants, occupying all
or a large portion of the gross leasable space. In the event an anchor tenant becomes insolvent, suffers a downturn
in business, ceases its operations at the retail center, or otherwise determines not to renew its lease, any reduction
or cessation of rental payments to us could adversely affect the returns on our real estate investments. A lease
termination or cessation of operations by an anchor tenant could also lead to the loss of other tenants at the
specific retail location. We may then incur additional expenses to make improvements and prepare the vacated
space to be leased to one or more new tenants.
Similarly, the leases of some anchor tenants may permit the anchor tenant to transfer its lease to
another retailer. The transfer to a new anchor tenant could cause customer traffic in the retail center to decrease
and thereby reduce the income generated by that retail center. A lease transfer to a new anchor tenant could also
allow other tenants to make reduced rental payments or to terminate their leases.
Our retail and other real estate properties may be subject to impairment charges which can adversely affect
our financial results.
We periodically evaluate our long-lived assets and related intangible assets to determine if there has
been any impairment in their carrying values. If we determine an impairment has occurred, we are required to
record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. As our
real estate operations grow, there is an increased potential that the impairment of an asset could have a material
adverse effect on our financial results. In addition, our fair value estimates are based on several assumptions that
are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for
tenants, changes in market rental rates and costs to operate each property. As these factors are difficult to predict
and are subject to future events that may alter our assumptions, the future cash flows estimated in our impairment
analysis may not be achieved.
18

Our ongoing investments in real estate and information technology businesses have inherent risks and could
burden our financial and human resources.
We have invested and expect to continue to invest in real estate and information technology. Despite
our due diligence, these investments may still involve significant risks and uncertainties, including distraction of
management and employees from current operations, insufficient revenues to offset liabilities assumed and
incurred expenses, inadequate return of capital, and failure to realize the anticipated benefits. There can be no
assurance that such investments will be successful and will not adversely affect our financial condition and
operating results.
Legal and regulatory risks
Industry trends, such as litigation against the insurance industry and individual insurers, the willingness of
courts to expand covered causes of loss, rising jury awards, and the escalation of loss severity may contribute
to increased costs and to the deterioration of the reserves of our insurance subsidiaries.
Loss severity in the property and casualty insurance industry may increase and may be driven by larger
court judgments. In the event legal actions and proceedings are brought on behalf of classes of complainants, this
may increase the size of judgments. The propensity of policyholders and third party claimants to litigate and the
willingness of courts to expand causes of loss and the size of awards may render our loss reserves inadequate for
current and future losses.
As an insurance holding company, we are currently subject to state regulation and in the future may become
subject to federal regulation.
All states regulate insurance holding company systems. State statutes and administrative rules generally
require each insurance company in the holding company group to register with the department of insurance in its
state of domicile and to furnish information concerning the operations of the companies within the holding
company system that may materially affect the operations, management or financial condition of the insurers
within the group. As part of its registration, each insurance company must identify material agreements,
relationships and transactions with affiliates, including without limitation, loans, investments, asset transfers,
transactions outside of the ordinary course of business, certain management, service, and cost sharing
agreements, reinsurance transactions, dividends, and consolidated tax allocation agreements.
Insurance holding company regulations generally provide that transactions between an insurance
company and its affiliates must be fair and equitable, allocated between the parties in accordance with customary
accounting practices, and fully disclosed in the records of the respective parties. Many types of transactions
between an insurance company and its affiliates, such as transfers of assets among such affiliated companies,
certain dividend payments from insurance subsidiaries and certain material transactions between companies
within the system may be subject to prior approval by, or prior notice to, state regulatory authorities. If we are
unable to obtain the requisite prior approval for a specific transaction, we would be precluded from taking the
action, which could adversely affect our operations. In addition, state insurance regulations also frequently
impose notice or approval requirements for the acquisition of specified levels of ownership in the insurance
company or insurance holding company.
Regulations may vary from state to state, and states occasionally may have conflicting regulations.
Currently, the federal government’s role in regulating or dictating the policies of insurance companies is limited.
However, Congress, from time to time, considers proposals that would increase the role of the federal
government in insurance regulation, either in addition to or in lieu of state regulation. The impact of any future
federal insurance regulation on our insurance operations is unclear and may adversely impact our business or
competitive position.
19

Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to extensive regulation, which may reduce our profitability or limit our
growth. Moreover, if we fail to comply with these regulations, we may be subject to penalties, including fines
and suspensions, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
The insurance industry is highly regulated and supervised. Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to the
supervision and regulation of the states in which they are domiciled and the states in which they transact
insurance business. Such supervision and regulation is primarily designed to protect our policyholders rather than
our shareholders. These regulations are generally administered by a department of insurance in each state and
relate to, among other things —
•
the content and timing of required notices and other policyholder information;
•
the amount of premiums the insurer may write in relation to its surplus;
•
the amount and nature of reinsurance a company is required to purchase;
•
participation in guaranty funds and other statutorily created markets or organizations;
•
business operations and claims practices;
•
approval of policy forms and premium rates;
•
standards of solvency, including risk-based capital measurements;
•
licensing of insurers and their products;
•
restrictions on the nature, quality and concentration of investments;
•
restrictions on the ability of insurance company subsidiaries to pay dividends to their holding
companies;
•
restrictions on transactions between insurance companies and their affiliates;
•
restrictions on the size of risks insurable under a single policy;
•
requiring deposits for the benefit of policyholders;
•
requiring certain methods of accounting;
•
periodic examinations of our operations and finances;
•
the form and content of records of financial condition required to be filed; and
•
the level of reserves.
The FLOIR and regulators in other jurisdictions where we may become licensed and offer insurance
products conduct periodic examinations of the affairs of insurance companies and require the filing of annual and
other reports relating to financial condition, holding company issues and other matters. These regulatory
requirements may adversely affect or inhibit our ability to achieve some or all of our business objectives. These
regulatory authorities also conduct periodic examinations into insurers’ business practices. These reviews may
reveal deficiencies in our insurance operations or non-compliance with regulatory requirements.
In certain states including Florida, insurance companies are subject to assessments levied by the states
where they conduct their business. While we can recover these assessments from Florida policyholders through
policy surcharges, our payment of the assessments and our recoveries may not offset each other in the same
reporting period in our consolidated financial statements and may cause a material, adverse effect on our cash
flows and results of operations in a particular reporting period.
In addition, regulatory authorities have relatively broad discretion to deny or revoke licenses for
various reasons, including the violation of regulations. In some instances, we follow practices based on our
interpretations of regulations or practices that we believe may be generally followed by the industry. These
20

practices may turn out to be different from the interpretations of regulatory authorities. If we do not have the
requisite licenses and approvals or do not comply with applicable regulatory requirements, insurance regulatory
authorities could preclude or temporarily suspend us from carrying on some or all of our activities or otherwise
penalize us. This could adversely affect our ability to operate our business.
Finally, changes in the level of regulation of the insurance industry or changes in laws or regulations
themselves or interpretations by regulatory authorities could adversely affect our ability to operate our business,
reduce our profitability and limit our growth.
A regulatory environment that requires approval of rate increases and that can dictate underwriting practices
and mandate participation in loss sharing arrangements may adversely affect our results of operations and
financial condition.
From time to time, political events and positions affect the insurance market, including efforts to
suppress rates to a level that may not allow us to reach targeted levels of profitability. For example, if our loss
ratio compares favorably to that of the industry, state regulatory authorities may impose rate rollbacks, require us
to pay premium refunds to policyholders, or challenge or otherwise delay our efforts to raise rates even if the
homeowners industry generally is not experiencing regulatory challenges to rate increases.
In addition, certain states have enacted laws that require an insurer conducting business in that state to
participate in assigned risk plans, reinsurance facilities and joint underwriting associations. Certain states also
require insurers to offer coverage to all consumers, often restricting an insurer’s ability to charge the price it
might otherwise charge. In these markets, we may be compelled to underwrite significant amounts of business at
lower-than-desired rates, possibly leading to an unacceptable return on equity. Our results of operations and
financial condition could be adversely affected by any of these factors.
Our real estate operations are subject to regulation under various federal, state, and local laws concerning the
environment.
Our real estate operations own various properties including marina facilities, and commercial
buildings. As a result, we are subject to regulation under various federal, state, and local laws concerning the
environment, including laws addressing the discharge of pollutants into the air and water and the management
and disposal of hazardous substances and waste and the cleanup of contaminated sites. We could incur
substantial costs, including remediation costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions and third-party damage or
personal injury claims, if in the future we were to violate or become liable under environmental laws relating to
our real estate operations.
Security and fraud risks
An unauthorized disclosure or loss of policyholder or employee information or other sensitive or confidential
information, including by cyber-attack or other security breach, could cause a loss of data, give rise to
remediation or other expenses, expose us to liability under federal and state laws, and subject us to litigation
and investigations, which could have an adverse effect on our business, cash flows, financial condition and
results of operations.
As part of our normal operations, we collect, process and retain certain sensitive and confidential
information. We are subject to various federal and state privacy laws and rules regarding the use and disclosure
of certain sensitive or confidential information. Despite the security measures we have implemented to help
ensure data security and compliance with applicable laws and rules, which include firewalls, regular penetration
testing and other measures, our facilities and systems, and those of our third-party service providers and vendors,
may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks, security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, theft of data,
misplaced or lost data, programming and human errors, physical break-ins, or other disruptions. In addition, we
21

cannot ensure that we will be able to identify, prevent or contain the effects of possible cyber-attacks or other
cybersecurity risks in the future that may bypass our security measures or disrupt our information technology
systems or business.
Noncompliance with any privacy or security laws and regulations, or any security breach, cyber-attack
or cybersecurity breach, and any incident involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure or
use of, or access to, sensitive or confidential member information, could require us to expend significant capital
and other resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures and to remediate any damage
caused by such breaches. In addition, this could result in interruptions to our operations and damage to our
reputation, and misappropriation of confidential information could also result in regulatory enforcement actions,
material fines and penalties, litigation or other liability or actions which could have a material adverse effect on
our business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations. As the regulatory environment related to
information security, data collection and use, and privacy becomes increasingly rigorous, with new and
constantly changing requirements applicable to our business, compliance with those requirements could also
result in additional costs.
We rely on service providers and vendors to provide certain technology, systems and services that we
use in connection with various functions of our business, including PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data
Security Standard) compliant credit card processing, and we may entrust them with confidential information. The
information systems of our third-party service providers and vendors are also vulnerable to an increasing threat
of continually evolving cybersecurity risks. Unauthorized parties may attempt to gain access to these systems or
our information through fraud or other means of deceiving our associates, third-party service providers or
vendors. Hardware, software or applications we obtain from third parties may contain defects in design or
manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise information security. The methods used to
obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems are also constantly changing and
evolving and may be difficult to anticipate or detect for long periods of time. Ever-evolving threats mean our
third-party service providers and vendors must continually evaluate and adapt their own respective systems and
processes, and there is no assurance that they will be adequate to safeguard against all data security breaches or
misuses of data. Any future significant compromise or breach of our data security via a third-party service
provider or vendor could result in additional significant costs, lost revenues, fines, lawsuits, and damage to our
reputation. We have acquired a cybersecurity insurance policy to help mitigate any financial impact that may
incur with a breach along with the assistance for legal and/or media requirements during that time.
General risks
An overall decline in economic activity could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and
results of operations of our business.
The demand for homeowners insurance generally rises as the overall level of household income
increases and generally falls as household income decreases, affecting premiums, commissions and fees
generated by our business. Some new policies may be sourced by referral sources tied to home closing
transactions, and major slowdowns in the various housing markets we serve could impact our ability to generate
new business. The economic activity that impacts homeowners insurance is most closely correlated with
employment levels, corporate revenue and asset values.
Changing climate conditions could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial
condition.
There is an emerging scientific consensus on climate change, which may affect the frequency and
severity of storms, floods and other weather events, and negatively affect our business, results of operations, and/
or financial condition.
22

We have exposure to unpredictable catastrophes, which can materially and adversely affect our financial
results.
We write insurance policies that cover homeowners, condominium owners, and tenants for losses that
result from, among other things, catastrophes. We are therefore subject to losses, including claims under policies
we have written, arising out of catastrophes that may have a significant effect on our business, results of
operations, and financial condition. A significant catastrophe could also have an adverse effect on our reinsurers.
Catastrophes can be caused by various events, including hurricanes, tropical storms, tornadoes, windstorms,
earthquakes, hailstorms, explosions, power outages, fires, winter storms and man-made events. The incidence
and severity of catastrophes are inherently unpredictable. The extent of losses from a catastrophe is a function of
both the total amount of insured exposure in the area affected by the event and the severity of the event. Our
policyholders are currently concentrated in Florida and the northeast and southeast regions, which are subject to
adverse weather conditions such as hurricanes, tropical storms and winter storms. Therefore, although we attempt
to manage our exposure to catastrophes through our underwriting process and the purchase of reinsurance
protection, an especially severe catastrophe or series of catastrophes could exceed our reinsurance protection and
may have a material, adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
ITEM 1B – Unresolved Staff Comments
Not applicable.
ITEM 1C – Cybersecurity
We rely on digital technology to conduct our businesses and interact with customers, policyholders,
agents, and vendors. With this reliance on technology comes the associated security risks from using today’s
communication technology and networks.
Risk Management and Strategy
The goal of our cybersecurity risk management strategy is to protect the privacy, integrity, and
availability of our critical systems and information. Our processes identify, assess, and manage material risk from
cybersecurity threats as part of our entity-wide risk management efforts. To safeguard our data and the data of
our customers, management utilizes a multi-layered approach consisting first of an external security operations
center company that specializes in the detection and containment of cyber-attacks. For protection of endpoint
devices connected to our network, we use the tailored security software of a third-party consultant company for
managed detection and response. Perimeter defense technology is used to filter e-mail for threats from malware
viruses and e-mail phishing attempts. We also detect threats through the use of our firewalls that monitor
incoming and outgoing network traffic.
Tools utilized to prevent threats include multifactor authentication, e-mail security services, mobile e-
mail security policies, virtual private networks, third-party security experts, and timely applied software patches,
among others. We engage in annual penetration testing, disaster recovery testing, internal and external audits of
our cybersecurity controls and simulated cyberattack scenarios to gauge our preparedness for these situations. In
addition, employees are required to pass a mandatory cybersecurity training course annually and receive periodic
phishing simulations to facilitate recognizing phishing attempts. We carry Cyber Insurance which includes access
to a Cyber Incident Response team in the case of a cybersecurity event.
Management of cybersecurity also extends to third-party service providers we use for specialized
purposes such as payroll processing, investment tracking, regulatory financial reporting, and equity
compensation plan administration. Our communication with these providers is protected by the safeguards within
our security operation center. In addition, we annually obtain a Service Organization Controls (SOC) report on
the suitability and operating effectiveness of the providers’ controls, known as a SOC 1 Type 2 Report. The
report is prepared by an independent service auditor. We review such reports to confirm the existence of effective
controls over unauthorized access at third party service providers.
23

We respond to cybersecurity events in accordance with our Cyber Security Incident Response Plan
(CSIRP), which follows the guidance of the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity
Framework and provides for assessment, mitigation, and if necessary, remediation of any effects of a system
breach. We also conduct annual breach simulations with internal information technology teams to test each step
of our CSIRP.
There have been no cybersecurity events in the past that have materially affected the Company’s
business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. Although we believe our defenses against cyber-
intrusions are sufficient, we continue to update our prevention programs to respond to sophisticated and rapidly
evolving attempts to overcome our security measures. Such continuing threats could have a variety of adverse
business impacts. See Item 1A – “Risk Factors” under the heading “Security and fraud risks” above for
additional information on risks to our business from cybersecurity incidents and related matters.
Governance
Cybersecurity is a critical component of our overall risk management process. Our Board of Directors
oversees our cybersecurity efforts as delegated to and performed by senior management which is responsible for
the identification and assessment of material risks from cybersecurity incidents. The members of management
responsible for managing cybersecurity threats are HCI Group’s Director of Information Technology (IT) and its
Network Security Manager, and the President of Exzeo USA, Inc., TTIG’s software development and IT
company. Both the Director of IT and the President have extensive experience in managing information systems
including the defense of computer networks against cyber intrusions. The Network Security Manager is dedicated
to overseeing our multi-layered cybersecurity defenses and leads monthly security meetings attended by IT
managers.
Our Board receives periodic reports on cybersecurity risks and any material cybersecurity incidents.
One member of our Board of Directors, Paresh Patel, has information technology expertise.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and
related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking
statements as defined under federal securities laws. Such statements, including statements about our plans,
objectives, expectations, assumptions or future events, involve risks and uncertainties. These statements
involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied
by the forward-looking statements. Typically, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology
such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,”
“may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions. The important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements include but are not limited
to the effects of governmental regulation; changes in insurance regulations; the frequency and extent of
claims; uncertainties inherent in reserve estimates; catastrophic events; changes in the demand for, pricing of,
availability of or collectability of reinsurance; restrictions on our ability to change premium rates; increased
rate pressure on premiums; the severity and impact of a pandemic; and other risks and uncertainties and
other factors listed under Item 1A – “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in
our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
OVERVIEW
General
HCI Group, Inc. is a Florida-based company which through its subsidiaries is engaged in a variety of
business activities, including property and casualty insurance, information technology services, insurance
management, real estate and reinsurance. Its principal business is property and casualty insurance.
We began insurance operations by participating in a “take-out program” which is a legislatively
mandated program designed to encourage private companies to assume policies from Citizens, a Florida state-
sponsored insurance carrier. Over the years, we have periodically acquired additional policies from Citizens
meeting our strict underwriting criteria. We will continue to do so as opportunities arise.
Our general operating and growth strategies are to continually optimize our existing book of insurance
business, organically expand our insurance business, manage our costs and expenses, diversify our business
operations, develop and deploy new technologies to streamline operational processes, and maintain a strong
balance sheet so we can quickly pursue accretive opportunities when they arise. Our growth strategies also
include assumption of policies from other insurance companies with the intention of renewing and/or replacing
them with our policies.
Recent Events
On January 1, 2025 our 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes became convertible by all holders, as the
closing share price of our common stock for 20 trading days during the final 30 trading days of the immediately
preceding calendar quarter was greater than 130% of the conversion price of $80.54, thus fulfilling the
conversion conditions. The notes will remain convertible at least through March 31, 2025. We plan to settle all
conversions fully in common stock. The current conversion ratio is approximately 12.4166 shares of common
stock per $1 principal amount of notes. In addition, we have the right to redeem the 4.75% Convertible Notes at
any time after June 5, 2025, if the last reported sale price of the common stock has been at least 130% of the
conversion price for at least 20 trading days during any 30 day consecutive trading day period.
28

On January 14, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per common share.
The dividends are payable on March 21, 2025 to stockholders of record on February 21, 2025.
On February 18, 2025, Tailrow, a consolidated VIE, assumed polices from Citizens. As outlined in the
Consent Order issued by the FLOIR, Tailrow will assume approximately 14,000 policies, representing an
estimated $36,000,000 in annualized premiums written.
On February 27, 2025, TTIG filed articles of amendment to its Restated Articles of Incorporation
changing its name from TypTap Insurance Group, Inc. to Exzeo Group, Inc.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2024 with the Year Ended December 31, 2023
Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 reflect net income of approximately
$127,581,000, or $8.89 diluted earnings per share, compared with net income of approximately $89,257,000, or
$7.62 diluted earnings per share, for the year ended December 31, 2023. The year-over-year increase was
primarily attributable to a $181,676,000 increase in net premiums earned and a $17,723,000 net increase in
income from our investment portfolio (consisting of net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains
or losses), offset by a $120,129,000 increase in losses and loss adjustment expenses, a $8,580,000 increase in
policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses, a $9,284,000 increase in general and administrative
personnel expenses, an increase of $2,227,000 in interest expense, and a $3,384,000 increase in other operating
expenses due to business growth.
Revenue
Gross Premiums Earned on a consolidated basis for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were
approximately $1,083,220,000 and $765,512,000, respectively. The $317,708,000 increase in 2024 was primarily
attributable to the policies assumed from Citizens as well as premium rate increases. Gross premiums earned
from insurance operations were $1,036,129,000 in 2024 compared with $765,512,000 in 2023. Gross premiums
earned from reciprocal exchange operations were $51,207,000 in 2024 as opposed to $0 in 2023.
Premiums Ceded for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $405,659,000
and $269,627,000, respectively, representing 37.5% and 35.2%, respectively, of gross premiums earned. Our
premiums ceded represent costs of reinsurance to cover losses from catastrophes that exceed the retention levels
defined by our catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts or to assume a proportional share of losses
defined in a quota share agreement. The rates we pay for reinsurance are based primarily on policy exposures
reflected in gross premiums earned. The $136,032,000 increase was attributable to higher reinsurance costs for
the 2024-2025 contract year, increased coverage due to growth in the number of policies in force and total
insured value, and the reversal of previously accrued benefits as described in Note 14 — “Reinsurance” to our
consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See “Economic Impact of
Reinsurance Contracts with Retrospective Provisions” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”
Net Premiums Written for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 totaled approximately
$761,108,000 and $628,995,000, respectively. Net premiums written represent the premiums charged on policies
issued during a fiscal period less any applicable reinsurance costs. The $132,113,000 increase in 2024 resulted
primarily from an increase in gross premiums written from the assumption of Citizens insurance policies as well
as premium rate increases, offset by an increase in premiums ceded. Gross premiums written from insurance
operations were approximately $1,085,355,000 and $898,622,000, respectively, for 2024 and 2023. Gross
premiums written by reciprocal exchange operations were approximately $81,412,000 in 2024 compared with $0
in 2023. We had approximately 271,300 policies in force at December 31, 2024 as compared with approximately
247,000 policies in force at December 31, 2023.
29

Net Premiums Earned for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were approximately
$677,561,000 and $495,885,000, respectively, and reflect the gross premiums earned less reinsurance costs as
described above.
The following is a reconciliation of our Net Premiums Written to Net Premiums Earned for the years
ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (amounts in thousands):

Net Investment Income for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was approximately
$59,148,000 and $46,234,000, respectively. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to a
$17,758,000 increase in interest income from cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale fixed-maturity
securities, offset by a $5,592,000 decrease in income from real estate investments. See e) Net Investment Income
under Note 5 — “Investments” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
Net Realized Investment Gains for the year ended December 31, 2024 were approximately $3,384,000
as opposed to net realized investment losses of approximately $1,996,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The increase was primarily attributable to net realized gains of approximately $3,384,000 from sales of fixed-
maturity and equity securities in 2024 as opposed to net realized losses of approximately $1,962,000 from sales
of these securities in 2023.
Net Unrealized Investment Gains for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was approximately
$2,644,000 and $3,215,000, respectively. Net unrealized investment gains or losses represent the net change in
the fair value of equity securities. The decrease in 2024 was primarily attributable to the sale of securities with an
unrealized gain position in 2024, compared with the sale of securities with an unrealized loss position in 2023.
Expenses
Our consolidated Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses amounted to approximately $374,708,000 and
$254,579,000 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was attributable to net
losses of $78,157,000 from Hurricane Milton, $43,000,000 from Hurricane Helene, $6,500,000 from Hurricane
Debby, and losses attributable to a greater number of policies in force. The increase was offset by less prior
period development in 2024 compared to 2023. Excluding the impact of the hurricanes in 2024, overall losses
and loss adjustment expenses decreased when compared to 2023. See “Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment
Expenses” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”
Policy Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
were approximately $99,402,000 and $90,822,000, respectively, and primarily reflect the amortization of
deferred acquisition costs such as commissions payable to agents for production and renewal of policies and
premium taxes. The overall increase was primarily attributable to increased premiums in force, offset by lower
policy acquisition costs in Florida resulting from lower commissions.
General and Administrative Personnel Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
were approximately $63,152,000 and $53,868,000, respectively. Our general and administrative personnel
expenses include salaries, wages, payroll taxes, stock-based compensation expense, and employee benefit costs.
Factors such as merit increases, changes in headcount, and periodic restricted stock grants, among others, cause
30

fluctuations in this expense. In addition, our personnel expenses are decreased by the capitalization of payroll
costs related to projects to develop software for internal use and the payroll costs associated with the processing
and settlement of certain catastrophe claims which are recoverable from reinsurers under reinsurance contracts.
The year-over-year increase of $9,284,000 was primarily attributable to lower payroll costs recoverable from
reinsurers, an increase in stock-based compensation expense, an increase in employee health benefits, and merit
increases for non-executive employees effective in late February 2024.
Interest Expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was approximately $13,344,000 and
$11,117,000, respectively. The increase primarily resulted from an increase in interest expense related to the
revolving credit facility, partially offset by decreased interest expense resulting from the conversion and
redemption of the 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes in March 2024.
Income Tax Expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was approximately $45,846,000
and $28,393,000, respectively, for federal, state, and foreign income taxes, resulting in effective tax rates of
26.4% and 24.1%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to a lower prior
year effective tax rate resulting from the release of valuation allowance during 2023 and a higher effective tax
rate resulting from certain non-deductible compensation expense in 2024.
Ratios:
The loss ratio applicable to the year ended December 31, 2024 (losses and loss adjustment expenses
incurred related to net premiums earned) was 55.3% compared with 51.3% for the year ended December 31,
2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in losses and loss adjustment expenses, offset in part by the
increase in net premiums earned.
The expense ratio applicable to the year ended December 31, 2024 (total expenses excluding losses and
loss adjustment expenses and interest expense related to net premiums earned) was 27.8% compared with 33.7%
for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in our expense ratio was primarily attributable to the
increase in net premiums earned, offset by the increase in general and administrative personnel expenses and the
increase in policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses.
The combined ratio (total of all expenses excluding interest expense in relation to net premiums
earned) is the measure of overall underwriting profitability before other income. Our combined ratio for the year
ended December 31, 2024 was 83.1% compared with 85.0% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease
was attributable to the factors described above.
Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2023 with the Year Ended December 31, 2022
Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 reflect net income of approximately
$89,257,000, or $7.62 diluted earnings per share, compared with net loss of approximately $54,603,000, or $6.24
loss per share, for the year ended December 31, 2022. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to a
$32,313,000 increase in net premiums earned, a $23,346,000 net increase in income from our investment
portfolio (consisting of net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains or losses), a $116,884,000
decrease in losses and loss adjustment expenses, and a $14,155,000 decrease in policy acquisition and other
underwriting expenses, offset by a $3,349,000 increase in interest expense and a $3,117,000 decrease in gain
from remeasurement of contingent liabilities.
Revenue
Gross Premiums Earned on a consolidated basis for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were
approximately $765,512,000 and $724,716,000, respectively. The $40,796,000 increase in 2023 was primarily
attributable to the increased policies in force from the assumption of Citizens insurance policies and the increased
average premium per policy, offset by policy attrition.
31

Premiums Ceded for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $269,627,000
and $261,144,000, respectively, representing 35.2% and 36.0%, respectively, of gross premiums earned. The
$8,483,000 increase was primarily attributable to higher reinsurance costs for the 2023-2024 contract year and an
increased overall reinsurance coverage amount for Florida, offset by a higher reduction in premiums ceded
attributable to retrospective provisions under multi-year reinsurance contracts.
Net Premiums Written for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 totaled approximately
$628,995,000 and $464,875,000, respectively. The $164,120,000 increase in 2023 resulted primarily from an
increase in gross premiums written from the assumption of Citizens insurance policies of approximately
$143,087,000, offset by an increase in premiums ceded. We had approximately 247,000 policies in force at
December 31, 2023 as compared with approximately 210,400 policies in force at December 31, 2022.
Net Premiums Earned for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were approximately
$495,885,000 and $463,572,000, respectively, and reflect the gross premiums earned less reinsurance costs as
described above.
The following is a reconciliation of our Net Premiums Written to Net Premiums Earned for the years
ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (amounts in thousands):

Net Investment Income for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was approximately
$46,234,000 and $32,447,000, respectively. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to a
$11,963,000 increase in interest income from cash and cash equivalents and a $11,259,000 increase in income
from available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities, offset by a $5,919,000 decrease in income from real estate
investments and a $3,302,000 decrease in income from limited partnership investments. See e) Net Investment
Income under Note 5 — “Investments” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Net Unrealized Investment Gains for the year ended December 31, 2023 were approximately
$3,215,000 compared with approximately $7,153,000 of net unrealized investment losses for the year ended
December 31, 2022. Net unrealized investment gains or losses represent the net change in the fair value of equity
securities. The increase in 2023 was primarily attributable to an overall improvement in the equity market
compared with 2022.
Gain from Remeasurement of Contingent Liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $0
compared with approximately $3,117,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022, resulting from the decrease in
the balance of contingent liabilities in connection with the renewal rights agreements entered into with United.
Expenses
Our consolidated Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses amounted to approximately $254,579,000 and
$371,463,000 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease was attributable to a
reduction in loss and loss adjustment expenses attributable to Hurricane Ian of approximately $58,628,000, lower
losses due to lower claims and litigation frequency related to Florida policies, and less prior period development
being recorded in 2023.
32

Policy Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022
were approximately $90,822,000 and $104,977,000, respectively, and primarily reflect the amortization of
deferred acquisition costs such as commissions payable to agents for production and renewal of policies,
catastrophe allowance payable to United, and premium taxes. The overall decrease was primarily attributable to
amortization of decreased commission costs.
General and Administrative Personnel Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022
were approximately $53,868,000 and $56,511,000, respectively. The year-over-year decrease of $2,643,000 was
primarily attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense and an increase in recovered and
capitalized payroll costs, offset by an increase in employee incentive bonuses, and increase in the headcount of
temporary and full-time employees and merit increases for non-executive employees effective in late February
2023.
Interest Expense for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $11,117,000 and
$7,768,000, respectively. The increase primarily resulted from interest expense related to our 4.75% Convertible
Senior Notes issued in May 2022, offset by decreased interest expense from a reduction in promissory notes on
our real estate investments.
Impairment Loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $0 compared with approximately
$2,284,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022, resulting from an impairment of renewal rights intangible
assets associated with United policies assumed in the Northeast and Southeast regions.
Income Tax Expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was approximately $28,393,000 for
federal, state, and foreign income taxes compared with income tax benefit of approximately $13,815,000 for the
year ended December 31, 2022, resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.1% for 2023 and 20.2% for 2022. The
increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the elimination of the valuation allowance
established as of December 31, 2022.
Ratios:
The loss ratio applicable to the year ended December 31, 2023 (losses and loss adjustment expenses
incurred related to net premiums earned) was 51.3% compared with 80.1% for the year ended December 31,
2022. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in losses and loss adjustment expenses and the increase in
net premiums earned.
The expense ratio applicable to the year ended December 31, 2023 (total expenses excluding losses and
loss adjustment expenses and interest expense related to net premiums earned) was 33.7% compared with 40.7%
for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in our expense ratio was primarily attributable to the
increase in net premiums earned and the decrease in policy acquisition, underwriting and personnel expenses.
The combined ratio (total of all expenses excluding interest expense in relation to net premiums
earned) is the measure of overall underwriting profitability before other income. Our combined ratio for the year
ended December 31, 2023 was 85.0% compared with 120.8% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The
decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in losses and loss adjustment expenses, the decrease in policy
acquisition, underwriting and personnel expenses, and the increase in net premiums earned.
Seasonality of Our Business
Our insurance business is seasonal. Hurricanes and tropical storms affecting Florida, our primary
market, and other southeastern states typically occur during the period from June 1st through November 30th of
each year. Winter storms in the northeast usually occur during the period between December 1st and March 31st
of each year. Also, with our reinsurance treaty year typically effective on June 1st of each year, any variation in
33

the cost of our reinsurance, whether due to changes in reinsurance rates, coverage levels or changes in the total
insured value of our policy base, will occur and be reflected in our financial results beginning on June 1st of each
year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Throughout our history, our liquidity requirements have been met through issuances of our common
and preferred stock, debt offerings and funds from operations. We expect our future liquidity requirements will
be met by funds from operations, primarily the cash received by our insurance subsidiaries from premiums
written and investment income. We may consider raising additional capital through debt and/or equity offerings
to support our growth and future investment opportunities.
Our insurance subsidiaries require liquidity and adequate capital to meet ongoing obligations to
policyholders and claimants and to fund operating expenses. In addition, we attempt to maintain adequate levels
of liquidity and surplus to manage any differences between the duration of our liabilities and invested assets. In
the insurance industry, cash collected for premiums from policies written is invested, interest and dividends are
earned thereon, and losses and loss adjustment expenses are paid out over a period of years. This period of time
varies by the circumstances surrounding each claim. Substantially all of our losses and loss adjustment expenses,
excluding litigated claims, are fully settled and paid within approximately 90 days of the claim receipt date.
Additional cash outflow occurs through payments of underwriting costs such as commissions, taxes, payroll, and
general overhead expenses.
We believe that we maintain sufficient liquidity to pay claims and expenses, as well as to satisfy
commitments in the event of unforeseen events such as reinsurer insolvencies, inadequate premium rates, or
reserve deficiencies. We maintain a comprehensive reinsurance program at levels management considers
adequate to diversify risk and safeguard our financial position.
In the future, we anticipate our primary use of funds will be to pay claims, reinsurance premiums,
interest, and dividends and to fund operating expenses and real estate acquisitions.

See Note 13 — “Long-Term Debt” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Limited Partnership Investments
Our limited partnership investments consist of six private equity funds managed by their general
partners. Two of these funds have unexpired capital commitments which are callable at the discretion of the
fund’s general partner for funding new investments or expenses of the fund. Under certain circumstances, we
34

may be required to provide additional capital for the four remaining funds with expired capital commitments. At
December 31, 2024, there was an aggregate unfunded capital balance of $3,255,000. See c) Limited Partnership
Investments under Note 5 — “Investments” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Real Estate Investments
Real estate has long been a significant component of our overall investment portfolio. It diversifies our
portfolio and helps offset the volatility of other higher-risk assets. Thus, we may consider expanding our real
estate investment portfolio should an opportunity arise.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the years ended December 31,
2024, 2023 and 2022 are summarized below.
Cash Flows for the Year Ended December 31, 2024
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was approximately
$331,816,000, which consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written, and reinsurance recoveries
of approximately $131,593,000 less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses
and interest payments. Net cash used in investing activities of $260,110,000 was primarily due to the purchases
of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $836,636,000, the purchases of real estate investments of $16,066,000,
the purchases of property and equipment of $4,052,000, and additional investments in limited partnership
interests of $1,233,000, offset by the proceeds from calls, repayments and maturities of fixed-maturity securities
of $457,102,000, the proceeds from sales of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $137,170,000, and
distributions received from limited partnership investments of $3,591,000. Net cash used in financing activities
totaled $75,174,000, which was primarily due to the redemption of redeemable noncontrolling interests of
$100,000,000, $16,598,000 of cash dividend payments, cash dividends paid to redeemable noncontrolling
interests of $2,923,000, $1,037,000 of share repurchases, and repayments of long-term debt of $519,000, offset
by net borrowing under the line of credit agreement of $44,000,000 and net surplus contribution from
noncontrolling interests of $2,949,000.
Cash Flows for the Year Ended December 31, 2023
Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was approximately
$230,658,000, which consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written, and reinsurance recoveries
of approximately $244,060,000 less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses
and interest payments. Net cash provided by investing activities of $4,269,000 was primarily due to the proceeds
from calls, repayments and maturities of fixed-maturity securities of $328,719,000, the proceeds from sales of
fixed-maturity and equity securities of $34,528,000, the proceeds from sales of real estate investments of
$21,746,000, and distributions received from limited partnership investments of $3,115,000, offset by the
purchases of fixed-maturity and equity securities of $352,653,000, the purchases of property and equipment of
$6,502,000, the purchases of real estate investments of $21,405,000, and the purchase of intangible assets of
$1,786,000. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $67,117,000, which was primarily due to net
proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $84,572,000 and proceeds from issuance of long-term debt of
$12,000,000, offset by $13,719,000 of cash dividend payments, the redemption of long-term debt of $6,895,000,
cash dividends paid to redeemable noncontrolling interest of $6,763,000, $784,000 of share repurchases, and
repayments of long-term debt of $562,000.
Cash Flows for the Year Ended December 31, 2022
Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was approximately
$12,000, which consisted primarily of cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses
35

and interest payments less cash received from net premiums written and reinsurance recoveries of approximately
$200,551,000. Net cash used in investing activities of $434,537,000 was primarily due to the purchases of fixed-
maturity and equity securities of $637,730,000, the purchases of property and equipment of $6,341,000, and the
purchase of intangible assets from United of $3,800,000, offset by the proceeds from calls, repayments and
maturities of fixed-maturity securities of $151,415,000, the proceeds from sales of fixed-maturity and equity
securities of $43,321,000, $14,500,000 of compensation received for the property relinquished through eminent
domain, and distributions received from limited partnership investments of $5,360,000. Net cash provided by
financing activities totaled $41,067,000, which was primarily due to the proceeds from issuance of 4.75%
Convertible Senior Notes of $172,500,000, offset by $88,312,000 of share repurchases, $15,157,000 of net cash
dividend payments, net repayment of our revolving credit facility of $15,000,000, debt issuance costs paid of
$6,041,000, cash dividends paid to redeemable noncontrolling interest of $5,508,000, and repayments of long-
term debt of $1,009,000.
Investments
The main objective of our investment policy is to maximize our after-tax investment income with a
reasonable level of risk given the current financial market. Our excess cash is invested primarily in money
market accounts, certificates of deposit, and fixed-maturity and equity securities.
At December 31, 2024, we had $774,737,000 of fixed-maturity and equity investments, which are
carried at fair value. Changes in the general interest rate environment affect the returns available on new fixed-
maturity investments. While a rising interest rate environment enhances the returns available on new
investments, it reduces the market value of existing fixed-maturity investments and thus the availability of gains
on disposition. A decline in interest rates reduces the returns available on new fixed-maturity investments but
increases the market value of existing fixed-maturity investments, creating the opportunity for realized
investment gains on disposition.
In the future, we may alter our investment policy with regard to investments in federal, state and
municipal obligations, preferred and common equity securities and real estate mortgages, as permitted by
applicable law, including insurance regulations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of December 31, 2024, we had unexpired capital commitments for limited partnerships in which we
hold interests. Such commitments are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements but are required to
be disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. See Note 25 — “Commitments and
Contingencies” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We have prepared our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated
financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments to develop amounts reflected and disclosed in
our consolidated financial statements. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in
the near term are related to our losses and loss adjustment expenses, which include amounts estimated for claims
incurred but not yet reported. We base our estimates on various assumptions and actuarial data we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
We believe our accounting policies specific to losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance
recoverable, reinsurance with retrospective provisions, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation
expense, limited partnership investments, acquired intangible assets, warrants, and redeemable noncontrolling
interest involve our most significant judgments and estimates material to our consolidated financial statements.
36

Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses. We establish reserves for the estimated total
unpaid costs of losses including loss adjustment expenses (LAE). Loss and LAE reserves reflect management’s
best estimate of the total cost of (i) claims that have been incurred, but not yet paid in full, and (ii) claims that
have been incurred but not yet reported to us (“IBNR”). Reserves established by us represent an estimate of the
outcome of future events and, as such, cannot be considered an exact calculation of our liability. Rather, loss and
LAE reserves represent management’s best estimate of our company’s liability based on the application of
actuarial techniques and other projection methodologies and taking into consideration other facts and
circumstances known at the balance sheet date. The process of establishing loss and LAE reserves is complex
and inherently imprecise, as it involves the estimation of the outcome of future uncertain events. The impact of
both internal and external variables on ultimate losses and LAE costs is difficult to estimate. In determining loss
and LAE reserves, we give careful consideration to all available data and actuarial analyses.
Currently, our estimated ultimate liability is calculated using the principles and procedures described in
Note 15 — “Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” to our consolidated financial statements under Item 8 of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are applied to the lines of business written. However, because the
establishment of loss and LAE reserves is an inherently uncertain process, we cannot be certain that ultimate
losses will not exceed the established loss and LAE reserves and have a material, adverse effect on our results of
operations and financial condition. Changes in estimates, or differences between estimates and amounts
ultimately paid, are reflected in the operating results of the period during which such adjustments are made.
Our reported results, financial position and liquidity would be affected by likely changes in key
assumptions that determine our net loss reserves. Management does not believe that any reasonably likely
changes in the frequency of claims would affect our loss and LAE reserves. However, management believes that
a reasonably likely increase or decrease in the severity of claims could impact our net loss and LAE reserves. The
table below summarizes the effect on net loss and LAE reserves and equity in the event of reasonably likely
changes in the severity of claims considered in establishing loss and LAE reserves. The range of reasonably
likely changes in the severity of our claims was established based on a review of changes in loss year
development and applied to loss and LAE reserves as a whole. The selected range of changes does not indicate
what could be the potential best or worst case or likely scenarios:

Reinsurance Recoverable. Our reinsurance recoverable balance represents an estimate of the amount
of paid and unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses that is recoverable from reinsurers. This estimate is
determined in a manner consistent with the terms of the applicable reinsurance contracts and based on the
ultimate losses and loss adjustment expenses we expect to incur. Given the uncertainty of the ultimate amounts of
losses and loss adjustment expenses, the estimate may vary significantly from the eventual outcome.
Economic Impact of Reinsurance Contracts with Retrospective Provisions. From time to time, our
reinsurance contracts may include retrospective provisions that adjust premiums in the event losses are minimal
37

or zero. As described earlier, there is considerable uncertainty regarding the estimation of future losses. In
accordance with U.S. GAAP, we will recognize an asset in the period in which the absence of loss experience
obligates the reinsurer to pay cash or other consideration under the contract. In the event that a loss arises, we
will derecognize such asset in the period in which a loss arises. Such adjustments to the asset, which accrue
throughout the contract term, will negatively impact our operating results when a catastrophic loss event occurs
during the contract term.
Due to the catastrophic losses caused by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton during 2024,
premiums ceded were increased by $44,289,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, resulting from the
reversal of benefits accrued in prior years. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we accrued benefits
and recognized reductions in premiums ceded of $27,972,000 and $18,710,000, respectively.
As of December 31, 2024, there were no accrued benefits under such agreements. As of December 31,
2023, we had $44,289,000 of accrued benefits, the amount that would be charged to earnings in the event we
experience a catastrophic loss that exceeds the coverage limit provided under such agreements.
Income Taxes. We account for income taxes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, resulting in two
components of income tax expense (benefit): current and deferred. Current income tax expense (benefit) reflects
taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable
income or excess of deductions over revenues. We determine deferred income taxes using the liability (or
balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the
differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are
recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred tax assets, representing future reductions in taxable
income, are recorded with the assumption that taxable income will be present in the future. Given the uncertainty
regarding future taxable income, valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets that are not likely
to be realized, if any. We have elected to classify the related interest and penalties, if any, as income tax expense
as permitted by current accounting standards.
Stock-Based Compensation. We account for stock-based compensation awards under our stockholder-
approved incentive plans in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of U.S. GAAP, which require
the measurement, and recognition of compensation for all stock-based awards made to employees, non-employee
directors, and third-party award recipients including stock options, restricted stock and warrant issuances based
on estimated fair values. For restricted stock with service-based vesting conditions, fair value is determined by
the market price of the stock on the grant date. Compensation expense is then recognized ratably over the
requisite or derived service period of the award. Restricted stock awards with market-based vesting conditions
require the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist to
estimate the fair value and derived service period of the award. We then recognize the compensation expense
ratably over this derived service period. Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair
value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires considerable judgment, including estimating stock price
volatility and derived service periods. We develop our estimates based on historical data and market information.
We primarily use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the following variables for input to
calculate the fair value of each stock award on the option grant date: 1) expected volatility of our stock price, 2)
the risk-free interest rate, 3) expected term of each award, 4) expected dividends, and 5) an expected forfeiture
rate. For stock-based awards granted by non-public subsidiaries, we determine the fair value with the assistance
of an independent valuation specialist who may use different valuation methods such as a Monte Carlo
simulation model and a binomial distribution model. Inputs such as an estimated stock price of our private
subsidiary and expected price volatility used in these valuation methods are derived mathematically from a data
analysis of many public peer companies with similar characteristics.
Limited Partnership Investments. The valuation of our limited partnership investments is prepared by
the general partner of each fund. We use net asset value (“NAV”) provided by the general partner to estimate our
share of the fair value of these investments. However, the timing of the delivery of the fund’s financial
38

statements and NAV information is on a three-month lag which results in a three-month delay in the recognition
of our share of the limited partnership’s earnings or losses. But because this is the best information available, we
use it as an estimate for the fair value at our reporting dates, unless conditions have changed significantly in the
economy or securities markets since the previous quarter due to an event such as changes in the government’s
fiscal or monetary policies. In such a case, we will adjust our estimate with the assistance from the general
partner.
Acquired Intangible Assets. Acquired intangible assets represent the fair value of consideration we
paid and are estimated to pay in exchange for the renewal rights and non-compete intangible assets acquired from
the seller. In the renewal rights transactions, we purchased the right, but not the obligation, to offer homeowners
insurance coverage to all policyholders of the seller in certain states on the agreed-upon policy replacement date.
The renewal rights agreements also contain a non-compete clause whereby the seller agrees not to offer
homeowners insurance policies in these states through a specified date. We record intangible assets based on the
fair value of the consideration we paid and are estimated to pay to the seller as provided in the renewal rights
agreements with the seller. We engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist with the allocation of the
renewal rights and non-compete intangible assets acquired. Uncertainty is inherent in the estimates of future
payments and in the assumptions made in allocating value to separate intangible assets. Intangible assets are
amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets are evaluated to ensure that there is no impairment
to carrying value and no change required in the amortization period. Based on the review and the assessment, we
concluded that there was no impairment related to the renewal rights intangible assets at December 31, 2024.
ITEM 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our investment portfolio at December 31, 2024 included fixed-maturity and equity securities, the
purposes of which are not for speculation. Our main objective is to maximize after-tax investment income and
maintain sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations while minimizing market risk, which is the potential
economic loss from adverse fluctuations in securities prices. We consider many factors including credit ratings,
investment concentrations, regulatory requirements, anticipated fluctuation of interest rates, durations and market
conditions in developing investment strategies. Our investment securities are managed primarily by outside
investment advisors and are overseen by the investment committee appointed by our Board of Directors. From
time to time, our investment committee may decide to invest in low risk assets such as U.S. government bonds.
Our investment portfolio is exposed to interest rate risk, credit risk and equity price risk. Fiscal and
economic uncertainties caused by any government action or inaction may exacerbate these risks and potentially
have adverse impacts on the value of our investment portfolio.
We classify our fixed-maturity securities as available-for-sale and report any unrealized gains or losses,
net of deferred income taxes, as a component of other comprehensive income within our stockholders’ equity. As
such, any material temporary changes in their fair value can adversely impact the carrying value of our
stockholders’ equity. In addition, we recognize any unrealized gains and losses related to our equity securities in
our statement of income. As a result, our results of operations can be materially affected by the volatility in the
equity market.
Interest Rate Risk
Our fixed-maturity securities are sensitive to potential losses resulting from unfavorable changes in
interest rates. We manage the risk by analyzing anticipated movement in interest rates and considering our future
capital needs.

Credit Risk
Credit risk can expose us to potential losses arising principally from adverse changes in the financial
condition of the issuers of our fixed-maturity securities. We mitigate the risk by investing in fixed-maturity
securities that are generally investment grade, by diversifying our investment portfolio to avoid concentrations in
any single issuer or business sector, and by continually monitoring each individual security for declines in credit
quality. While we emphasize credit quality in our investment selection process, significant downturns in the
markets or general economy may impact the credit quality of our portfolio.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee
HCI Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HCI Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income,
comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024
and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 28, 2025 expressed an
unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting
firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance
with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures
include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the
financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that:
(1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any
way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical
audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to
which they relate.
43

Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
As described in Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 15 — “Losses and
Loss Adjustment Expenses” to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s reserves for losses and loss
adjustment expenses (“LAE”) reported in the consolidated balance sheet were $845.9 million at December 31,
2024. Reserves for losses and LAE reflect management’s best estimate regarding the Company’s ultimate losses,
resulting in a liability for claims that have been incurred, but not yet paid, and claims that have been incurred but
not yet reported. The reserves are based on the application of actuarial techniques and other projection
methodologies, taking into consideration other facts and circumstances known at the balance sheet date. The
methods used by management in determining the reserves for losses and LAE are complex and subjective with
various key inputs and assumptions. Judgement is required to determine the inputs and assumptions used and
these can significantly impact the reserves recognized. The most significant judgments include the choice of the
appropriate standard actuarial reserving methods, the selection of loss development factors that place reliance on
actual historical loss experience, current claim trends, and the prevailing social, economic and legal
environments, and reserves derived specific to catastrophe events.
The principal considerations for our determination of the reserves for losses and LAE as a critical audit
matter are the complexity and subjectivity of the judgments, estimates and assumptions that management utilized
in determining their ultimate loss estimates. This required a high degree of effort and judgment in selecting the
audit procedures to evaluate management’s estimates and assumptions as it relates to the reserves for losses and
LAE, including the use of an auditor’s specialist.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
•
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls
related to management’s determination of the reserves for losses and LAE, including controls over the
actuarial methods and assumptions utilized to support the reserve calculations, and controls over the
completeness and accuracy of historical loss data utilized in the reserves calculations.
•
We tested the completeness and accuracy of the historical loss data used in the development of the
reserves.
•
We performed analytical procedures over the Company’s recorded reserves in relation to the
Company’s consulting actuary’s range of reserve estimates.
•
We engaged an actuary as an auditor’s specialist to independently assess the Company’s consulting
actuary’s selection of actuarial methods and assumptions and the resulting reserve ranges and point
estimates.
Valuation of Limited Partnership Investments
As described in Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 5 — “Investments”
to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s limited partnership investments reported in the
consolidated balance sheet were $20.8 million at December 31, 2024. For the investments with ownership
interest at five percent or less, the Company uses the net asset value method to estimate the fair value of these
investments. Due to a reporting lag, the Company may record an adjustment to the Company’s most recent share
of net asset value when the amount can be reasonably estimated and a significant adverse impact on the net asset
value is expected as a result of a major economic event. The methods used by management in determining if an
adjustment to the Company’s most recent share of net asset value is necessary are complex and subjective based
on the judgment that is required to determine the key inputs and assumptions which can significantly impact the
adjustments recognized.
The principal considerations for our determination of the valuation of limited partnership investments
as a critical audit matter are the subjectivity of the inputs and assumptions that management utilized in
44

determining the adjustment to the Company’s most recent share of net asset value. This required a high degree of
effort and judgment in selecting the audit procedures to evaluate management’s estimates and assumptions as it
relates to the valuation of limited partnership investments, including the use of an auditor’s specialist.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
•
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls
related to the valuation of limited partnership investments, including controls over management’s
estimate of the adjustment to the Company’s most recent share of net asset value of the limited
partnership investments.
•
We tested the completeness and accuracy of the data utilized by management and evaluated the
reasonableness of management’s assumptions used to develop an estimate of fair value.
•
We engaged a specialist to develop an independent estimate of fair value of the limited partnership
investments and comparison of management’s estimate to the independently developed estimate of fair
value.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on Internal Control
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee
HCI Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited HCI Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”)’s internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework
(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our
opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by
COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and our report dated February 28, 2025, expressed an unqualified
opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the
accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with
respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over
financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating
the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use,
or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
46

controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
Note 1 — Nature of Operations
HCI Group, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“HCI” or the “Company”), is primarily engaged in the
property and casualty insurance business through two Florida domiciled insurance companies, Homeowners
Choice Property & Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (“HCPCI”) and TypTap Insurance Company (“TTIC”).
Both HCPCI and TTIC are authorized to underwrite various homeowners’ property and casualty insurance
products and allied lines business in the state of Florida and in other states. A third insurance subsidiary, perRisk
Insurance Company (“perRisk”), is domiciled in Arizona and has not yet commenced its surplus lines insurance
business. The operations of insurance subsidiaries are supported by HCI Group, Inc. and certain entities within
the consolidated group. The Company emphasizes the use of internally developed technologies to collect and
analyze claims and other supplemental data to assist in the underwriting process and generate savings as well as
efficiency for the operations of the insurance subsidiaries and other insurance-related businesses. In addition,
Greenleaf Capital, LLC, the Company’s real estate subsidiary, is primarily engaged in the business of owning
and leasing real estate and operating marina facilities.
In October 2023, the Company incorporated a new subsidiary, Core Risk Managers, LLC (“CRM”), in
the state of Florida. Its sole purpose is to conduct daily operations on behalf of Condo Owners Reciprocal
Exchange (“CORE”) under an attorney-in-fact agreement. CORE, a reciprocal insurance exchange, was
organized in November 2023 to offer commercial residential multiple peril insurance products. In November
2024, the Company’s newly incorporated subsidiary Tailrow Risk Managers, LLC (“TRM”), entered into an
attorney-in-fact agreement with Tailrow Insurance Exchange (“Tailrow”), a Florida domiciled reciprocal
insurance exchange, to provide policy management and administrative services. Tailrow was authorized to write
fire and homeowners multiple peril lines of insurance. At the reporting date, Tailrow had not commenced
insurance operations. Although the Company does not have any equity interest in CORE and Tailrow, the
Company is required to consolidate both reciprocal insurance exchanges as their primary beneficiary. See Note
16 — “Variable Interest Entities” for additional information.
Insurance Business Outside Florida
The Company currently provides property insurance in the northeast and southeast regions of the
United States. Northeast states include Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island (collectively
“Northeast Region”). Southeast states include Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina (collectively
“Southeast Region”). Business in these regions was initially assumed under the quota share reinsurance
agreements from United Property & Casualty Insurance Company, an insurance subsidiary of United Insurance
Holdings Corporation (“United”). In February 2023, United’s Florida-domiciled residential insurance subsidiary
was placed into receivership by the State of Florida due to its financial insolvency. Under the renewal rights
agreements in connection with the assumed business, these United policies were renewed and/or replaced by the
Company between December 2021 and March 2023.
Citizens Assumption
From time to time, the Company may participate in a “take-out program” through which the Company
assumes insurance policies held by Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“Citizens”), a Florida state-
supported insurer. The take-out program is a legislatively mandated program designed to reduce the state’s risk
exposure by encouraging private companies to assume policies from Citizens. During the year ended
December 31, 2024, approximately 52,800 policies were assumed, representing approximately $315,100 in
annualized gross written premiums, whereas for the year ended December 31, 2023, approximately 60,000
policies were assumed, representing approximately $224,800 in annualized gross written premiums.

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
Change in Segment Information
On July 1, 2024, HCI entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with TypTap
Insurance Group, Inc. (“TTIG”), its majority-owned subsidiary. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, TTIG
transferred to HCI 2,500,000 shares of TTIC’s $1.00 par value common stock which represented all of the issued
and outstanding capital stock of TTIC. In exchange, HCI agreed to consider three promissory notes issued by
TTIG, totaling $117,994 in principal, as fully repaid with the exception of a 2.00% promissory note due June 1,
2025. This promissory note remained in effect with its principal balance reduced from $40,000 to $2,994 until it
was repaid in November 2024. As this was a transaction between entities under common control with no ultimate
change in control of TTIC, the purchase was accounted for as a common control transaction. The net assets of
TTIC were derecognized by TTIG and recognized by HCI at their carrying amounts on the date of the purchase.
The difference between the consideration transferred and the carrying amounts of the net assets was recognized
in equity. As there was no change in HCI’s ownership percentage in TTIG, the change in noncontrolling interests
in TTIG was charged to noncontrolling interest expense. This organizational change was implemented to align all
insurance operations under a single operating segment under the Company’s direct control, allowing TTIG to
primarily focus on its industry-leading technology and insurance management activities as an insurance solutions
provider.
As a result of this transaction, the former HCPCI Insurance Operations segment is changed to the
Insurance Operations segment. TTIC’s financial information is now included in this segment, allowing for the
presentation of all insurance operations under a single segment. With this change, the Company now conducts its
operations through five reportable segments: 1) insurance operations, 2) TypTap Group, 3) reciprocal exchange
operations, 4) real estate operations, and 5) corporate and other. See Note 17 — “Segment Information” for
additional information.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of HCI Group, Inc. and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Company evaluates its relationships or
investments for consolidation pursuant to authoritative accounting guidance related to the consolidation of
variable interest entities under the Variable Interest Model prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”). A variable interest entity is consolidated when the Company has the power to direct activities
that most significantly impact the economic performance of the variable interest entity and has the obligation to
absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the variable interest entity that could potentially be significant
to the variable interest entity. When a variable interest entity is not consolidated, the Company uses the equity
method to account for the investment. Under this method, the carrying value is generally the Company’s share of
the net asset value of the unconsolidated entity, and changes in the Company’s share of the net asset value are
recorded in net investment income.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
differ materially from these estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in
58

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
the near term are primarily related to losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance with retrospective
provisions, reinsurance recoverable, deferred income taxes, limited partnership investments, intangible assets
acquired from United, allowance for credit losses, and stock-based compensation expense.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with
original maturities of less than three months to be cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2024 and 2023,
cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash on deposit with financial institutions and securities brokerage firms,
and certificates of deposit.
Restricted Cash. Restricted cash represents funds in the Company’s sole ownership held by certain
states in which the Company’s insurance subsidiaries conduct business to meet regulatory requirements and not
available for immediate business use. Funds withheld in an account for which the Company is a co-owner but not
the named beneficiary are not considered restricted cash and are included in funds withheld for assumed business
on the consolidated balance sheets.
Available-for-Sale Fixed-Maturity Securities. Fixed-maturity securities that are available for sale
include debt securities and redeemable preferred stock. The Company’s available-for-sale securities are carried at
fair value. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale securities representing unrealized gains or losses, other
than credit losses, are excluded from net investment income and reported in stockholders’ equity as a component
of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of deferred income taxes. Realized investment gains and
losses from sales are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the first-in first-out (“FIFO”) method.
Investment income is recognized as earned and discounts or premiums arising from the purchase of debt
securities are recognized in investment income using the interest method over the estimated remaining term of
the security. Gains and losses from call redemptions and repayments are charged to investment income.
The Company reviews fixed-maturity securities for impairment on a monthly basis. When reviewing
impaired securities, the Company considers its ability and intent to hold these securities and whether it is
probable that the Company will be required to sell these securities prior to their anticipated recovery or maturity.
For the fixed-maturity securities that the Company intends to sell or it is probable that the Company will have to
sell before recovery or maturity, the unrealized losses are recognized as impairment losses in income.
Impaired securities where the Company has the ability and intent to hold until recovery and believes it
is not probable that the Company will be required to sell these securities prior to their anticipated recovery or
maturity, are evaluated for the existence of credit-related losses. When determining impairment due to a credit-
related loss, the Company carefully considers factors such as the issuer’s financial ratios and condition, the
security’s current ratings and maturity date, the failure of the issuer to make a scheduled payment, and overall
market conditions in estimating the cash flows expected to be collected. The expected cash flows discounted at
the effective interest rate of the security implicit at the date of acquisition are then compared with the security’s
amortized cost at the measurement date. A credit loss is incurred when the present value of the expected cash
flows is less than the security’s amortized cost. If such credit-related losses exist, an allowance for credit losses is
established with a charge in the consolidated statement of income. Subsequent changes in the allowance, whether
favorable or unfavorable, are recorded on the consolidated statement of income. See additional information in the
Allowance for Credit Losses section within this note. Any remaining impairment loss related to other non-credit
factors such as changes in interest rates or market conditions is reflected as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss).
Allowance for Credit Losses. Allowance for credit losses represents an estimation of potential losses
that the Company may experience due to credit risk. The allowance for credit losses account is a contra account
59

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
of a financial asset to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. Any increase or decrease in the allowance
for credit losses related to investments is recognized and reflected as credit losses on investments in the
Company’s consolidated statement of income. For all other financial assets, credit loss expense is included in
other operating expenses. When the risk of credit loss becomes certain, the allowance for credit losses account
will be written off against the financial asset. Under the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model, the
Company measures all expected credit losses related to relevant financial assets based on historical experience,
current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts which incorporate forward-looking information. The
Company primarily uses a discounted cash flow method and a rating-based method in estimating credit losses at
a reporting date for financial assets under the scope of the CECL model. The discounted cash flow method is a
valuation method used to estimate the value of a financial asset based on its future cash flows. The Company
uses this method to determine the expected credit losses for available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities. In
addition, the Company elected not to measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable as
any uncollectible amount is adjusted to interest income on a monthly basis. At present, the exposure to credit
losses for certain financial assets related to non-insurance business is considered immaterial to the Company’s
financial position.
For certain financial assets related to insurance business such as reinsurance recoverable and
reinsurance receivable for premium refund, the Company uses a rating-based method, which is a modified
version of the probability of default method. It requires two key inputs: a) the liquidation rate and b) the amount
of loss exposure. The liquidation rate, which is published annually, is the ratio of impaired insurance companies
that were eventually liquidated to the group of insurance companies considered by A.M. Best in its study. The
amount of loss exposure represents the future billing balance, net of any collateral, spread over the projected
periods that are based on the Company’s historical claim payment pattern. The rating-based method measures
credit losses by multiplying the future billings grouped by insurance rating over the projected periods by their
corresponding liquidation rates by insurance rating.
For paid reinsurance recoverable which is due within 90 days after billing, the Company will rely
heavily on each reinsurer’s credit rating, recent financial condition, and historical collection problems, if any, in
determining the expected credit loss. For risk attributable to disagreements between an insurer and reinsurer
regarding a difference in interpretation of provisions in a reinsurance agreement (“dispute risk”), the Company
will continue to use an incurred loss method to estimate losses. At December 31, 2024, there was no dispute risk
associated with the reinsurance recoverable balance.
Equity Securities. Equity securities represent ownership interests held by the Company in entities for
investment purposes. Unrealized holding gains and losses related to equity securities are reported in the
consolidated statements of income as net unrealized investment gains and losses. Realized investment gains and
losses from sales are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the FIFO method (see b) Equity
Securities in Note 5 — “Investments”).
Limited Partnership Investments. The Company has interests in limited partnerships that are not
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the securities laws of any state or the
securities laws of any other jurisdictions. The partnership interests cannot be resold in the public market and any
withdrawal is subject to the terms and conditions of the partnership agreements. The Company has no influence
over partnership operating and financial policies. The Company uses the equity method to account for the
investments with ownership interest greater than five percent. For the investments with ownership interest at five
percent or less, the Company uses the net asset value method to estimate the fair value of these investments. The
Company generally recognizes its share of the limited partnerships’ earnings or losses on a three-month lag. Due
60

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
to the lag, the Company may record an adjustment to the Company’s most recent share of net asset value when
the amount can be reasonably estimated and a significant adverse impact on the net asset value is expected as a
result of a major economic event.
Net investment income or loss from limited partnerships represents a net aggregate amount of
operating results allocated to the Company based on the percentage of ownership interest in each limited
partnership.
Pursuant to U.S. GAAP, these limited partnerships which are private equity funds must measure their
investments at fair value and reflect the unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of their investments on their
statements of income. As a result, the carrying value of limited partnership investments at each reporting date
approximates their estimated fair value.
Real Estate Investments. Real estate investments include real estate and the related assets purchased
for investment purposes (see Note 5 — “Investments”). Real estate and the related depreciable assets are carried
at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, which is included in net investment income and allocated over the
estimated useful life of the asset using the straight-line method of depreciation. Land is not depreciated. Real
estate is evaluated for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of the real estate may
not be recoverable.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs. Deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) represent direct costs to
acquire insurance contracts and consist of premium taxes, inspection fees and commissions paid to outside agents
at the time of collection of the policy premium. DAC may also include expenses associated with the transition of
policies from other insurers for replacement policies and the issuance of renewal policies under the Company’s
own rates and terms. DAC is amortized over the life of the related policy in relation to the amount of gross
premiums earned. Ceding commission and related costs paid associated with assumed business are also deferred
and amortized over the life of the reinsurance agreement.
The method followed in computing DAC limits the amount of such deferred costs to their estimated
realizable value, which gives effect to the gross premium earned, related investment income, unpaid losses and
loss adjustment expenses and certain other costs expected to be incurred as the premium is earned.
DAC is reviewed to determine if it is recoverable from future premium income, including investment
income. If such costs are determined to be unrecoverable, they are expensed at the time of determination. The
amount of DAC considered recoverable could be reduced in the near term if the estimates of total gross premium
earned are reduced or permanently impaired as a result of the disposition of a line of business. The amount of
amortization of DAC could be revised in the near term if any of the gross premium earned estimates discussed
above are revised.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization, which is included in other operating expenses. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful lives as follows: land improvements, five years; building, 39 years; building
improvements, three to ten years; computer hardware and software, three years; and furniture and office
equipment, three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the
asset’s useful life. Land is not depreciated. Expenditures for improvements are capitalized to the property
accounts. Replacements and maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the life of the respective
assets are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes both internal and external costs for internally
developed software during the application development stage. During the preliminary project and
61

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
post-implementation stage, internal-use software development costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized
software costs are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of seven years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, are reviewed
for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the
assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining
whether the assets can be recovered from undiscounted future cash flows. Recoverability of long-lived assets is
dependent upon, among other things, the Company’s ability to maintain profitability so as to be able to meet its
obligations when they become due. In our opinion, based upon current information and projections, tangible
long-lived assets will be recovered over the period of benefit.
Leases. The Company leases office equipment, storage units, and office space from non-affiliates
under terms ranging from one month up to nine years. In assessing whether a contract is or contains a lease, the
Company first determines whether there is an identified asset in the contract. The Company then determines
whether the contract conveys the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
identified asset or the right to direct the use of the identified asset. The Company elects not to record any lease
with a term of 12 months or less on the consolidated balance sheet. For such short-term leases, the Company
recognizes the lease payments in expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
If the contract is or contains a lease and the Company has the right to control the use of the identified
asset, the right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and the lease liability is measured from the lease component of the contract
and recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. In measuring the lease liability, the Company uses its
incremental borrowing rate for a loan secured by a similar asset that has a term similar to the lease term to
discount the lease payments. The contract is further evaluated to determine the classification of the lease as to
whether it is finance or operating. If the lease is a finance lease, the ROU asset is depreciated to depreciation
expense over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term. Interest expense is recorded in
connection with the lease liability using the effective interest method. If the lease is an operating lease, the ROU
asset is amortized to lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For the presentation of finance
leases on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, ROU assets and corresponding lease liabilities are included
with property and equipment, net, and long-term debt, respectively. For the presentation of operating leases on
the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, ROU assets are presented as right-of-use assets – operating leases
and corresponding lease liabilities are reflected as lease liabilities – operating leases.
The Company as a lessor leases its commercial and retail properties, boat slips, and docks to non-
affiliates at various terms. If the contract gives the Company’s customer the right to control the use of the
identified asset, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred by
the Company are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company also records
an unbilled receivable, which is the amount by which straight-line revenue exceeds the amount billed in
accordance with the lease.
Intangible Assets. Intangibles related to real estate investments consist of the value attributable to the
acquired in-place leases and the primary, or anchor tenant relationships. The value attributable to the anchor
tenant relationship represents the economic benefits of having a nationally recognized retailer as the lead tenant,
which draws consumer traffic and other tenants to the retail center. These intangibles are amortized to expense
over the related lease term. Amortization of the intangibles related to real estate investments is reflected in net
investment income in the consolidated statements of income. The Company reviews these intangible assets for
impairment annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be
recoverable. In the event the Company determines the carrying value is not recoverable, an impairment loss is
recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.
62

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
Acquired intangible assets represent the fair value of consideration the Company paid and is estimated
to pay in exchange for the renewal rights and non-compete intangible assets acquired from the seller. In the
renewal rights transactions, the Company purchased the right, but not the obligation, to offer homeowners
insurance coverage to all policyholders of the seller in certain states on the agreed-upon policy replacement date.
The renewal rights agreements also contain a non-compete clause whereby the seller agrees not to offer
homeowners insurance policies in these states through a specified date. The Company records these intangible
assets based on the fair value of the consideration it paid and is estimated to pay to the seller as provided in the
renewal rights agreements with the seller. The Company engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist with
the allocation of the renewal rights and non-compete intangible assets acquired. Intangible assets are amortized
over their estimated useful lives. Amortization of the renewal rights and non-compete intangible assets is
reflected in other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income. Intangible assets are evaluated to
ensure that there is no impairment to carrying value and no change required in the amortization period. See
Note 10 — “Intangible Assets, Net” for additional information.
Funds Withheld for Assumed Business. Pursuant to the Company’s quota share reinsurance
agreements with United, trust accounts were established for the benefit of United as beneficiary. The trust
balances represent the net amount owed to the Company under the reinsurance agreements. The trusts consist of
a) funds deposited to establish the accounts and b) premiums, including any subsequent premium adjustment, and
are reduced by commissions and paid losses and loss adjustment expenses. The assets within the trust accounts
consist primarily of cash. Funds remaining at the completion of the quota share agreements are to be distributed
according to the trust agreements. Prior to United being placed into receivership by the State of Florida on
February 27, 2023, United had the exclusive and unconditional right to withdraw funds from the trust accounts
on demand with written notice in compliance with the quota share reinsurance agreements. The funds are now
under the control of the receiver.
Lease Acquisition Costs. Lease acquisition costs represent capitalized costs of finding and acquiring
tenants such as leasing commissions, legal, and marketing expenses. The costs are included in other assets on the
consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes these costs in other operating expenses on a straight-line
basis over the term of a lease.
Long-Term Debt. Long-term debt includes debt instruments and finance lease obligations. A debt
instrument is generally classified as a liability and carried at amortized cost, net of any issuance costs. Debt
issuance costs are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the expected life of the debt instrument
using the effective interest method. At issuance, a debt instrument with embedded features such as conversion
and redemption options is evaluated to determine whether bifurcation and derivative accounting is applicable.
Any embedded feature other than the conversion option is evaluated at issuance to determine if it is probable that
such embedded feature will be exercised. If the Company concludes that the exercisability of that embedded
feature is not probable, the embedded feature is considered to be non-substantive and would not impact the initial
measurement and expected life of the debt instrument.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests. Redeemable noncontrolling interests represent economic
interests in TTIG and CORE not held by HCI. They are presented in the temporary equity (mezzanine) section of
the consolidated balance sheets.
TTIG
The interest in TTIG, present at December 31, 2023 but redeemed during the first quarter of 2024,
contained rights in dividends, voting, conversion, participation, liquidation preference and redemption. The
63

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
redemption feature was not solely within the control of TTIG. The interest was initially recorded at fair value and
was decreased by related issuance costs. The fair value was initially estimated using a residual fair value
approach. The effect of increasing dividend rates was accreted to the redeemable noncontrolling interest with a
corresponding reduction in retained income. The effective interest method was used for accretion over the period
of the increasing dividend rates. The carrying value of the interest was also subsequently adjusted for accrued
dividends and dividend payments. The Company had the option to pay the dividends in cash or make a payment-
in-kind. See Note 21 — “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests” for additional information on the redemption.
Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
Consolidated variable interests (“VIEs”) include CORE and Tailrow. At the reporting date, Tailrow
had yet to commence its insurance operations. The interest in VIEs represents a refundable portion of subscriber
surplus contributions. In general, a reciprocal insurance exchange collects surplus contributions in addition to
policy premiums from its policyholders referred to as subscribers. The purpose of the surplus contribution is to
support the reciprocal insurance exchange’s financial strength and lower their cost of capital. The surplus
contribution made during a policy term may be returned on a pro-rata basis to a subscriber in the event of policy
cancellation. As the term of an insurance policy progresses, a portion of the surplus contribution is reclassified
from the redeemable noncontrolling interest to the noncontrolling interest.
Noncontrolling Interests. The Company has noncontrolling interests attributable to TTIG, CORE, and
Tailrow. A noncontrolling interest arises when the Company has less than 100% of the voting rights and
economic interests in a subsidiary or a consolidated variable interest entity. The noncontrolling interest in TTIG
is periodically adjusted for the expensing of TTIG’s stock-based awards granted to its employees, the interest’s
share of TTIG’s net income or loss attributable to common stockholders and the change in other comprehensive
income or loss. The noncontrolling interest in CORE and Tailrow is periodically adjusted for the interest’s share
of each reciprocal insurance exchange’s net income or loss attributable to common stockholders and the
reclassification of surplus contributions from refundable to nonrefundable amount.
Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses. Reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) are
determined by establishing liabilities in amounts estimated to cover incurred losses and LAE. Such reserves are
determined based on the assessment of claims reported and the development of pending claims. These reserves
are based on individual case estimates for the reported losses and LAE and estimates of such amounts that are
incurred but not reported. Changes in the estimated liability are charged or credited to income as the losses and
LAE are settled.
The estimates of unpaid losses and LAE are subject to trends in claim severity and frequency and are
continually reviewed. As part of the process, the Company reviews historical data and considers various factors,
including known and anticipated regulatory and legal developments, changes in social attitudes, inflation and
economic conditions. As experience develops and other data becomes available, these estimates are revised, as
required, resulting in increases or decreases to the existing unpaid losses and LAE. Adjustments are reflected in
the results of operations in the period in which they are made and the liabilities may deviate substantially from
prior estimates. Losses and LAE ceded to or recovered from reinsurers are recorded as a reduction to losses and
LAE on the consolidated statements of income.
Advance Premiums. Premium payments received prior to the policy effective date are recorded as
advance premiums. Once the policy is in force, the premiums are recorded as described under “Premium
Revenue” below.
64

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
Premiums Receivable. Premiums receivable represent the amount of premiums due from policyholders
for insurance coverage. Premiums are recorded as receivable in the Company’s general ledger on the effective
date of the policy. Premiums are billed to the policyholder 45-60 days in advance of the effective date. The
policyholder is given a 30-day grace period after the effective date to pay the premium before the insurance
coverage is cancelled. If the policyholder does not pay the premium, the Company can cancel the policy and has
no obligation to provide insurance coverage. Unpaid renewal policies are cancelled at midnight on the last day of
the period for which the policyholder has paid. The unearned premium liability for the cancelled policy is
reversed along with the premium receivable balance. Therefore, there is no unpaid earned premium and credit
loss associated with the cancelled policy.
However, when the 30-day grace period falls between two reporting periods, the premium receivable
balance at the end of the first reporting period may potentially be overstated for not considering the policy that is
subsequently cancelled during the following reporting period. To mitigate the overstatement issue, the Company
estimates the monetary impact from the subsequent policy cancellation by multiplying the historical cancellation
rate to the premiums receivable balance at the reporting date. An allowance for uncollectible premiums, which
offsets the balance of premiums receivable, is established by reducing the unearned premiums liability and
earned revenues.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, allowances for uncollectible premiums were $5,891 and $3,152,
respectively. The increase in allowances for uncollectible premiums during 2024 resulted in a $2,329 decrease in
unearned premiums during the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in allowances for uncollectible
premiums during 2023 resulted in a $2,113 increase in unearned premiums during the year ended December 31,
2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, a decrease in earned revenues was $410 as opposed to an increase
in earned revenues of $97 and a decrease in earned revenues of $180 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and
2022, respectively.
Reinsurance Ceded. In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to reduce the loss that may
arise from catastrophes or other events by reinsuring certain levels of risk in various areas of exposure with other
insurance enterprises or reinsurers. The Company contracts with a number of reinsurers to secure its annual
reinsurance coverage, which generally becomes effective June 1st of each year. The Company purchases
reinsurance each year taking into consideration probable maximum losses and reinsurance market conditions.
Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the applicable reinsurance
contract or contracts. Premiums ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of gross premiums
earned to arrive at net premiums earned. Prepaid reinsurance premiums represent the unexpired portion of
premiums ceded to reinsurers.
From time to time, the Company may elect to pay a reinstatement premium to a reinsurer in order to
restore an amount of reinsurance coverage limit exhausted by a loss event. When that occurs, the unamortized
portion of the existing prepaid reinsurance premium associated with the first coverage limit will be immediately
expensed. The reinstatement premium will be recognized as prepaid reinsurance premium which will be
amortized to premiums ceded over the remaining coverage period of a contract.
One of the Company’s current reinsurance contracts contains retrospective provisions including terms
and conditions that adjust premiums based on the loss experience under the contract. In such cases, a with-and-
without method is used to estimate the asset or liability amount to be recognized at each reporting date. The
amount of the estimate is the difference between the net contract costs before and after the loss experience under
the contract. Estimates related to premium adjustments are recognized in ceded premiums earned. These
estimates are reviewed monthly based on the loss experience to date and as adjustments become necessary. Such
65

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
adjustments in premiums ceded are reflected in the Company’s current operations and recorded in other assets
until received upon the expiration of the contract. See Note 14 — “Reinsurance” for additional information.
The Company receives ceding commissions from ceding gross written premiums to a third-party
reinsurer under one flood quota share reinsurance contract. The ceding commissions represent the reimbursement
of the Company’s policy acquisition, underwriting and other operating expenses. Ceding commissions received
cover a portion of premium taxes and agent commissions capitalized by the Company and a portion of non-
capitalized acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses. Ceding commissions are recognized as income on
a pro-rata basis over the terms of the policies reinsured, the amount of which is included in policy acquisition and
other underwriting expenses in the consolidated statement of income. The unearned portion of ceding
commissions that represents recovery of capitalized acquisition costs is classified as a reduction of DAC whereas
the remaining unearned balance is classified as deferred revenue in other liabilities.
Reinsurance Assumed. From time to time, the Company agrees to assume risk from another insurance
company. Reinsurance premiums, commission, cost allowance, and reserves related to reinsured business are
accounted for on a basis consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of
the reinsurance contracts. Premiums assumed from other insurance companies are included in gross premiums
earned. Ceding commissions on assumed gross written premiums and related costs paid are reflected as DAC
which is amortized as expense on a pro-rata basis over the life of the reinsurance agreement. This amortized
expense is included in policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses in the consolidated statements of
income.
Premium Revenue. Premium revenue includes premium from the direct issuance of policies to
insureds or the renewal or replacement of insureds’ policies and assumed premium for providing coverage under
reinsurance agreements. Premium revenue is earned on a daily pro-rata basis over the term of the policies and is
included in gross premiums earned. Unearned premiums represent the portion of the premiums attributable to the
unexpired policy term. The Company reviews its policy detail and establishes an allowance for any amount
outstanding for more than 90 days.
Policy Fees. Policy fees represent nonrefundable fees for insurance coverage, which are intended to
reimburse a portion of the costs incurred to underwrite the policy. Policy fees are recognized ratably over the
policy coverage period.
Revenue from Claims Processing Services. The Company provides a claims processing service to a
third-party insurance company as a third-party administrator (“TPA”). The service includes investigation,
evaluation, adjustment and settlement of a claim. These highly interrelated activities are combined to fulfill the
Company’s obligation to provide the claims processing service under a contract. As such, they are considered a
single performance obligation for revenue recognition purposes. Fees are established on a per-claim basis by type
of claim. For each type of claim, the per-claim fee revenue is recognized over an average claim processing
period.
The Company may incur additional costs for outsourced services in connection with the investigation,
coverage analysis, adjustment, negotiation, settlement, defense or general processing of a claim. These costs are
reimbursable from the customer. The Company has control over how an outsourced service is performed on its
behalf. Thus, these pass-through costs are recognized as revenue in the gross amount to which the Company
expects to be entitled and when the outsourced service is completed and paid or accrued by the Company.
66

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
For a certain type of claim and in addition to the per-claim service fee, the Company is entitled to
additional revenue which is determined based on a fixed percentage of the paid indemnification of the loss per
claim. The revenue is recognized when the indemnification is paid by the Company.
Revenue related to claims processing services is included in other revenue in the consolidated
statements of income. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, revenues from claims processing
services were $0, $766 and $3,425, respectively. Amounts receivable attributable to this service were $0 for the
years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Insurance Guaranty Association Assessments. The Company’s insurance subsidiaries may be
assessed by state associations such as the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association. The assessments are intended
to be used for the payment of covered claims of insolvent insurance entities. The assessments are generally based
on a percentage of premiums written during or following the year of insolvency. Liabilities are recognized when
the assessments are probable to be imposed on the premiums on which they are expected to be based and the
amounts can be reasonably estimated. An insurer is generally permitted to recover the entire amount of
assessments from in-force and future policyholders through policy surcharges. U.S. GAAP provides that the
Company should record an asset based on the amount of written or obligated-to-write premiums and limited to
the amounts recoverable over the life of the in-force policies.
Foreign Currency. The functional currency of the Company’s Indian subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. As
such, the monetary assets and liabilities of this subsidiary are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in
effect on the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured using historical rates.
Expenses recorded in the local currency are remeasured at the prevailing exchange rate. Exchange gains and
losses resulting from these remeasurements are included in other operating expenses.
Income Taxes. The Company files consolidated federal and state income tax returns and allocates taxes
among its subsidiaries in accordance with a written tax-allocation agreement.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, resulting in two components
of income tax expense and benefit: current and deferred. Current income tax expense and benefit reflects taxes to
be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income
or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or
balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the
differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are
recognized in the period in which they occur.
Deferred income tax expense and benefit results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities
between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits,
that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term “more likely than not” means a
likelihood of more than fifty percent; the terms “examined” and “upon examination” also include resolution of
the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition
threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than fifty
percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all
relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not
recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is
subject to management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the
weight of both positive and negative evidence available including recent operating results, available tax planning
strategies, and projected future taxable income, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax
asset will not be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying amounts for the Company’s cash and cash
equivalents approximate their fair values at December 31, 2024 and 2023. Fair values for securities or financial
instruments are based on the framework for measuring fair value established by U.S. GAAP (see Note 7 — “Fair
Value Measurements”).
Stock-Based Compensation. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the fair value
recognition provisions of U.S. GAAP which require the measurement and recognition of compensation for all
stock-based awards made to employees, non-employee directors (see Note 23 — “Stock-Based Compensation”),
and third-party award recipients based on estimated fair values. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the fair value of
stock-based awards granted to employees and non-employee directors is generally recognized as compensation
expense over the requisite service period, which is defined as the period during which a recipient is required to
provide service in exchange for an award. Forfeitures of the Company’s stock-based awards are accounted for as
they occur. The Company uses a straight-line attribution method for all grants that include only a service-based
vesting condition. Restricted stock grants with market-based vesting conditions are expensed over the derived
service period. Expensing market-based awards may be expedited if the conditions are met sooner than
anticipated. Restricted stock granted by a subsidiary to an employee of the parent company is accounted for as a
dividend to the parent, which recognizes the compensation expense. For awards granted to third-party recipients,
the cost of the grant is recognized in the same period(s) and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash.
The Company’s outstanding stock-based awards include stock options, warrants, and restricted stock awards with
service and market-based vesting conditions. Compensation expense related to all awards granted to employees
and non-employee directors is included in general and administrative personnel expenses. The Company receives
a windfall tax benefit for certain stock option exercises and for restricted stock awards if these awards vest at a
higher value than the value used to recognize compensation expense. In the event the restricted stock awards vest
at a lower value than the value used to recognize compensation expense, the Company experiences a tax
shortfall. The Company recognizes tax windfalls and shortfalls in the consolidated statement of income.
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings or loss per common share is
computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding for the period. U.S. GAAP requires the inclusion of restricted stock as
participating securities since holders of the Company’s restricted stock have the right to share in dividends, if
declared, equally with common stockholders. In addition, the intrinsic value of restricted stock declines when the
Company experiences operating losses. As a result, holders of the Company’s restricted stock are allocated a
proportional share of net income and loss determined by dividing total weighted-average shares of restricted
stock by the sum of total weighted-average common shares and shares of restricted stock (the “two-class
method”). Diluted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted as well as participating equities. During loss
periods, common stock equivalents such as stock options and convertible debt are excluded from the calculation
of diluted loss per share, as the inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. See Note 20 — “Earnings Per Share”
for potentially dilutive securities at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Statutory Accounting Practices. The Company’s U.S. insurance subsidiaries comply with statutory
accounting practices prescribed by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and as adopted or
permitted by the FLOIR. There are no state prescribed or permitted practices that have been adopted by the
Company’s U.S. subsidiaries. In addition, the Company’s Bermuda insurance subsidiary prepares and files
financial statements in accordance with the prescribed regulatory accounting practices of the Bermuda Monetary
Authority.

Note 3 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07. In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting
Standards Update No. 2023-07 (“ASU 2023-07”) Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable
Segment Disclosures, which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments,
primarily by enhancing disclosures related to significant segment expenses. The Company has assessed the
updated requirements and determined that its existing segmental disclosures already comply with ASU 2023-07.
Pending Adoption
Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting
Standards Update No. 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”) Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax
Disclosures. This update enhances income tax disclosures by requiring public entities to report income tax
expense disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, with further detail on specific jurisdictions over a
quantitative threshold. In addition, public entities must also separately disclose reconciling items equal to or
greater than five percent of pretax income from operations by the applicable federal statutory rate. ASU 2023-09
is effective for all public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company is evaluating its impact on income tax disclosure.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03. In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting
Standards Update No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”) Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. For public
business entities, this update enhances disclosures by requiring the disaggregation of certain expense captions
presented within the income statement, such as employee compensation and intangible asset amortization. In
addition, the total relevant expense caption on the income statement must be reconciled to the aggregate of the
separately disclosed expense categories with the difference represented by an “other items” amount which is
qualitatively described. ASU 2024-03 is effective for all public business entities for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2026. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating its impact on certain expense
disclosures.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-04. In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting
Standards Update No. 2024-04 (“ASU 2024-04”) Debt–Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-
20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments. This update clarifies whether entities should apply
extinguishment accounting or induced conversion accounting when recording the settlement of convertible debt
instruments due to an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a reporting period if the entity has
also adopted ASU 2020-06 for that same period.

Allowance for Credit Losses of Available-for-Sale Fixed-Maturity Securities
The Company regularly reviews its individual investment securities for credit impairment. The
Company considers various factors in determining whether a credit loss exists for each individual security,
including-
•
the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may
affect its operations or earnings;
•
the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost;
•
general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors and other qualitative factors;
•
nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and
•
the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the
recovery of costs.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $0 credit loss
expense related to fixed-maturity securities in the consolidated statements of income.

Since January 1, 2023, a Tampa office building property that was previously leased to an unaffiliated
company has been used in operations by the Company and serves as TTIG’s corporate headquarters. As a result,
in January 2023, $8,135 was reclassified out of real estate investments to property and equipment, net on the
consolidated balance sheet.
On March 31, 2023, the Company closed on its agreement to sell the retail shopping center investment
property in Melbourne, Florida for a price of $18,500, and also closed on its agreement to sell the retail shopping
center investment property in Sorrento, Florida for a price of $13,418. See additional information under e) Net
Investment Income below.
On September 19, 2023, Grove Haines City, LLC, a real estate subsidiary of Greenleaf Capital, LLC,
acquired vacant land in Haines City, Florida and its associated leases for $3,393, including acquisition costs of
$100, and assumed a liability of $4. Of the total costs, $1,582 was recognized as real estate investments. See
Note 10 — “Intangible Assets, Net” for information about the acquired leases. The land will be developed into a
retail shopping center to be anchored by a well-known grocery store chain. The transaction was determined to be
an asset acquisition. Thus, acquisition-related costs were capitalized and allocated among the assets acquired.
On December 18, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase commercial real estate in
Tampa, Florida for a price of $12,824 and, contemporaneously, the seller entered into a second contract to lease
the property back from the Company at a below market rate. As a result, the below market value of $4,446 was
added to the purchase price for a total cost of $17,270 before being allocated among the assets acquired under
asset acquisition guidance. See Note 18 — “Leases” for additional information.
Depreciation and amortization expense related to real estate investments was $1,113, $1,147 and
$1,956, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 and was included in net investment
income on the consolidated statements of income.

In connection with the aforementioned purchase of commercial real estate in Tampa, Florida in
December 2023, the Company leased the property back to the seller for a lease term expiring on December 31,
2024. The lease was considered to be at a below market rate. The value of the below market lease was recognized
as deferred rent and amortized to rental income over the lease term. In June 2024, the tenant occupying the
property under a sublease agreement with the seller vacated the property. As a result, the Company derecognized
the remaining deferred rent to rental income. During the year ended December 31, 2024, income from real estate
investments included rental income of $2,497 resulting from such derecognition of deferred rent.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, income from real estate investments included a net gain of
$6,351 from the sale of the retail shopping center investment property in Melbourne, Florida and a net gain of
$2,460 from the sale of the retail shopping center investment property in Sorrento, Florida.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, income from real estate investments included a net gain of
$376 resulting from the sale of one outparcel in Sorrento, Florida, $451 of income from selling the liquor license
previously owned by the Company’s restaurant business which was discontinued in 2020, and a net realized gain
of $13,402 resulting from the sale of 1.5 acres of land in Tampa, Florida to the Florida Department of
Transportation for net proceeds of $14,500.
f) Other Investments
From time to time, the Company may invest in financial assets other than stocks, mutual funds, and
bonds. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net realized gains related to other investments was $0, compared
with a net realized loss of $34 and a net realized gain of $238 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022,
respectively.
Note 6 — Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) and other comprehensive income or loss,

Note 7 — Fair Value Measurements
The Company records and discloses certain financial assets at their estimated fair values. The fair value
hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as
follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly such as quoted
prices for identical assets that are not observable throughout the full term of the asset.
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable.
Valuation Methodology
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money-market funds and certificates of deposit
maturing within 90 days. Their carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity and high
liquidity of these funds.
78

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents cash held by state authorities and the carrying value approximates fair value.
Fixed-Maturity and Equity Securities
Estimated fair values of the Company’s fixed-maturity and equity securities are determined in
accordance with U.S. GAAP, using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair values are generally measured using quoted prices in active
markets for identical securities or other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted
prices for similar securities. In those instances where observable inputs are not available, fair values are
measured using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security and are developed based on the best
information available in the circumstances. Fair value estimates derived from unobservable inputs are
significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rates and the estimated amounts and timing
of future cash flows. The derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent
markets and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.
The estimated fair values for securities that do not trade on a daily basis are determined by
management, utilizing prices obtained from an independent pricing service and information provided by brokers,
which are level 2 inputs. Management reviews the assumptions and methods utilized by the pricing service and
then compares the relevant data and pricing to broker-provided data. The Company gains assurance of the overall
reasonableness and consistent application of the assumptions and methodologies, and compliance with
accounting standards for fair value determination through ongoing monitoring of the reported fair values.
Revolving credit facility
From time to time, the Company has an amount outstanding under a revolving credit facility. The
interest rate is variable and is periodically adjusted based on the Secured Overnight Financing Right (“SOFR”)
plus a ten basis points adjustment plus a margin based on the debt-to-capital ratio. As a result, carrying value,
when outstanding, approximates fair value.
Long-Term Debt
The following table summarizes components of the Company’s long-term debt and methods used in
estimating their fair values:

Agreement secured by the Company’s properties was first executed in 2018 and has been amended several times
thereafter. Under the current terms of the agreement, the maximum debt-to-capital ratio is set at 67.5%.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, borrowings bear interest at an annual rate equal to the one or
three month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a ten basis points adjustment plus a margin based
on the debt-to-capital ratio. The interest payment is due quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1, and
October 1. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants as well as customary events of
default. In addition, the Company must comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants and agree to
pay a fee equal to the product of the unused line fee rate and the average of the daily unused available credit
balances. The unused line fee rate is determined based on the debt-to-capital ratio.
At December 31, 2024, the Company had $44,000 outstanding under the credit facility, which was used

Convertible Senior Notes
The Company’s Convertible Senior Notes consist of 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes that mature
June 1, 2042. In May 2022, the Company issued 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes in a private offering for an
aggregate principal amount of $172,500. The net proceeds of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes were $166,486
after $6,014 in related issuance and transaction costs. The cash interest for the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes is
payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2022. In
conjunction with the issuance of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes, the Company entered into a share
repurchase agreement providing for the repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock. See Note 22 —
“Equity” under Share Repurchase Agreement for additional information.
The 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes were issued in March 2017 with cash interest payable
semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company
notified the holders of its outstanding 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2037 that the Company had elected to
redeem the remaining $23,916 principal balance of the 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes. As a result of this
notice, the 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes became immediately convertible into the Company’s common
shares, with a redemption date of March 15, 2024. The conversion rate of the Company’s 4.25% Convertible
Senior Notes was 16.5892 shares of common stock for each $1 in principal amount, which was the equivalent of
approximately $60.25 per share. The Company converted $23,450 in aggregate principal of 4.25% Convertible
Senior Notes for aggregate consideration of 389,087 shares of HCI’s common stock plus $1 cash consideration in
lieu of fractional shares. The remaining 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes were redeemed for $466 on March 15,
2024.
The Convertible Senior Notes rank equally in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future
unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The Convertible Senior Notes do not contain any financial or
operating covenants or restrictions on the payments of dividends, the incurrence of indebtedness or the issuance
or repurchase of securities by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Convertible Senior Notes provide no
protection to the note holders in the event of a fundamental change or other corporate transaction involving the
Company except those described in each respective indenture. The Convertible Senior Notes do not require a
sinking fund to be established for the purpose of redemption.
Embedded Conversion Feature
The conversion feature of these Convertible Senior Notes is subject to conversion rate adjustments
upon the occurrence of specified events (including payment of dividends above a specified amount) but will not
be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest.
85

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
The conversion rate of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes is currently 12.4166 shares of common
stock for each $1 in principal amount, which is the equivalent of approximately $80.54 per share.
The holders of the Convertible Senior Notes may convert all or a portion of their convertible senior
notes during specified periods prior to each respective maturity date as follows: (1) during any calendar quarter
commencing after the calendar quarter ending on the dates specified in each respective indenture, if the last
reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days during the period of 30
consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater
than 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business-day period after
any ten consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1 principal amount of the Convertible
Senior Notes is less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and
the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if specified corporate events, including a change in control,
occur; (4) if the respective Convertible Senior Notes are called for redemption, at any time prior to the dates
specified in each respective indenture; or (5) at any time on the dates or during the periods specified in each
respective indenture.
The note holders who elect to convert their Convertible Senior Notes in connection with a fundamental
change as described in the indentures will be entitled to a “make-whole” adjustment in the form of an increase in
the conversion rate. Upon conversion, the Company has options to satisfy its conversion obligation by paying or
delivering cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. As of
December 31, 2024, none of the conditions allowing the holders of either class of Convertible Senior Notes to
convert had been met. See Note 30 — “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
Embedded Redemption Feature – Fundamental Change
The note holders have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of the
Convertible Senior Notes at par prior to the maturity date should any of the fundamental change events described
in the indentures occur. The Company concluded that this embedded redemption feature is not a derivative
financial instrument, does not require bifurcation, and that it is not probable at issuance that any of the specified
fundamental change events will occur. Therefore, this embedded redemption feature is not substantive and will
not affect the expected life of the liability.
Embedded Redemption Feature – Put Option of the Note Holder
At the option of the holders of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes, the Company is required to
repurchase for cash all or any portion of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes at par on June 1, 2027, June 1, 2032
or June 1, 2037. The Company amortizes the issuance costs associated with the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes
over the period from May 23, 2022 to June 1, 2027. As of December 31, 2024, the remaining amortization period
of the debt issuance costs was expected to be 2.4 years for the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes.
The Company concluded that this embedded feature is not a derivative financial instrument and does
not require bifurcation. Due to this provision, the Company determined that it is appropriate to amortize the debt
issuance costs from the date each debt is issued to the earliest date at which the holders of the respective
Convertible Senior Notes can demand payment.
The effective interest rate for the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes, taking into account both cash and
non-cash components, approximates 5.6%. Had a 20-year term been used for the amortization of the issuance
costs of the 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes, the annual effective interest rate charged to earnings would have
decreased to approximately 5.0%.

Promissory Notes
4.55% Promissory Note
The loan agreement is secured by commercial real estate in Tampa, Florida and an associated lease
agreement. The loan bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 4.55%. Approximately $41 of principal and interest is
payable in 216 monthly installments. The promissory note may be repaid in full or in part after September 1,
2020 as long as the Company provides at least 30 days’ written notice and pays a prepayment consideration as
specified in the loan agreement.
5.50% Promissory Note
On June 26, 2023, Gulf to Bay LM, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ten-year secured
loan agreement for proceeds of $12,000. The loan is collateralized by the Company’s Clearwater, Florida real
estate, which is owned by Gulf to Bay LM, LLC, and the lease agreements associated with this property. The
loan bears a fixed annual interest rate of 5.50%. Approximately $74 of principal and interest is payable in 120
monthly installments. The promissory note may be repaid in full or in part after August 1, 2025 as long as the
Company provides at least 30 days’ written notice and pays a prepayment consideration as specified in the loan
agreement. The proceeds are used for real estate development projects or other general business purposes.
Note 14 — Reinsurance
Reinsurance obtained from other insurance companies
The Company cedes a portion of its homeowners’ insurance exposure to other entities under
catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts and a portion of its flood insurance exposure under one quota
share reinsurance agreement. Ceded premiums under most catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts are
subject to revision resulting from subsequent adjustments in total insured value. Under the terms of the quota
share reinsurance agreement, the Company is entitled to a 30% ceding commission on ceded premiums written
and a profit commission equal to 10% of net profit.
After receiving approval from the FLOIR in January 2023, the Company discontinued underwriting
flood insurance policies in Florida. Since the approval, the Company has cancelled or not renewed the majority
of its flood insurance policies. However, the Company is required to continue providing flood insurance coverage
to policyholders with open claims until criteria set by the FLOIR for cancellation and non-renewal are met. The
reason for discontinuation was primarily attributable to the increased costs and reduced availability of flood
reinsurance. The discontinuation did not have a material impact to the Company’s results of operations.
The Company remains liable for claims payments in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its
obligations under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in
losses to the Company. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors
concentrations of credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities or economic characteristics of the
reinsurers to minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies. The Company contracts with
a number of reinsurers to secure its annual reinsurance coverage, which generally becomes effective June 1st of
each year. The Company purchases reinsurance each year taking into consideration probable maximum losses
and reinsurance market conditions.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, ceded losses of $340,329 were recognized as a reduction in
losses and loss adjustment expenses. Ceded losses for 2024 comprised $383,843 for Hurricane Milton,
$18,000 for Hurricane Helene, $3,207 for Hurricane Sally, $446 for Tropical Storm Eta, and a $65,167 reduction
in ceded losses for Hurricane Ian.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company derecognized ceded losses of $94,863. This
included a $104,614 reduction in ceded losses related to Hurricane Ian, partially offset by additional ceded losses
of $5,416 for Hurricane Sally, $4,301 for Tropical Storm Eta, and $34 for other catastrophe and non-catastrophe
claims.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized ceded losses of $812,623. For
2022, ceded losses related to Hurricane Ian, Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Sally, and other non-catastrophe claims
were $782,071, $20,000, $10,483, and $69, respectively.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 44 and 33 reinsurers, respectively, participating in the
Company’s reinsurance program. Total net amounts recoverable and receivable from reinsurers at December 31,
2024 and 2023 were $558,441 and $350,294, respectively. Approximately 66.0% of the reinsurance recoverable
balance at December 31, 2024 was receivable from four reinsurers, one of which was the Florida Hurricane
Catastrophe Fund, a tax-exempt state trust fund. Based on all available information considered in the rating-
based method described in Note 2 — “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company recognized
an increase in credit loss expense of $68 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared with a decrease in
credit loss expense of $336 and an increase in credit loss expense of $364 for the years ended December 31, 2023
and 2022, respectively. Allowances for credit losses related to the reinsurance recoverable balance were $186 and
$118 at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Due to Hurricane Ian in 2022, the Company’s first event reinsurance coverage for flood losses was
exhausted, and accordingly, the Company could no longer cede additional flood losses from Hurricane Ian to
reinsurers. As a result, the Company elected to pay reinstatement premiums of $6,684 to the reinsurers to restore
the full amount of coverage. The unamortized first event reinsurance premiums of $3,306 were expensed and

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
charged to premiums ceded during the fourth quarter of 2022. See Note 15 — “Losses and Loss Adjustment
Expenses” for more information about the flood losses attributable to Hurricane Ian.
One of the existing reinsurance contracts includes retrospective provisions that adjust premiums in the
event losses are minimal or zero. As a result of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, the balance of
previously accrued benefits under the multi-year reinsurance contract with retrospective provisions, amounting to
$62,937, was reversed during 2024 with no further benefits to be accrued under the contract. Prior to June 1,
2022, there were two reinsurance contracts with retrospective provisions. As a result of Hurricane Ian, the
balance of previously accrued benefits under the multi-year reinsurance contract with retrospective provisions
was decreased by $12,600 in September 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2024, premiums ceded were
increased by $44,289, resulting from the reversal of benefits accrued in prior years. For the years ended
December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized reductions in premiums ceded of $27,972 and $18,710,
respectively.
Amounts receivable pursuant to retrospective provisions are reflected in other assets. At December 31,
2024 and 2023, other assets included $0 and $44,289, respectively. In October 2022, the Company received
$5,457 of premium refund under the Company’s previous two multi-year reinsurance contracts which were
commuted effective May 31, 2022.
Reinsurance provided to other insurance companies
United
From 2021 to 2023, the Company provided quota share reinsurance to United on its policies in the
Northeast and Southeast Regions. Quota share reinsurance provided to the Northeast Region was commuted in
December 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2022, $27,488 of assumed premiums written related to the
Northeast Region’s insurance policies were derecognized, which primarily resulted from the return of the
unearned portion of assumed written premiums subsequent to the Company’s renewal and/or replacement of
insurance policies in Massachusetts and New Jersey. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had a net
balance of $831 due to United related to the Northeast Region, representing ceding commission payable.
On February 27, 2023, United’s Florida-domiciled residential insurance subsidiary was placed into
receivership by the State of Florida due to its financial insolvency. As a result, the Company ceased providing
reinsurance and TPA services to United in March 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $7,271 of
assumed premiums written related to the Southeast Region’s insurance policies were derecognized, which
primarily resulted from the return of the unearned portion of assumed written premiums subsequent to the
Company’s renewal and/or replacement of insurance policies in the Southeast Region. For the year ended
December 31, 2022, assumed premiums written related to the Southeast Region’s insurance policies were
$40,404. At December 31, 2024, the Company had a net balance of $1,438 due to United related to the Southeast
Region, consisting of premiums payable of $1,712, offset by ceding commission receivable of $274. At
December 31, 2023, there was a net balance of $4,203 due to United related to the Southeast Region, consisting
of premiums payable of $1,712 and payable on paid losses and loss adjustment expenses of $2,765, offset by
ceding commission receivable of $274.
At December 31, 2024, the Company had a net amount due to United of $2,269 and funds withheld for
assumed business in trust accounts totaling $11,690 for the benefit of policies assumed from United. The
Company cannot predict the actions a receiver might take, which may include restrictions on, or use of, funds
held in trust. Any such actions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and
results of operations.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
In connection with the Southeast Region quota share reinsurance provided to United by the Company,
the receiver of United had requested a withdrawal of $13,482 from a trust account holding funds withheld for
assumed business. The withdrawal was in settlement of unearned premiums of $7,496, losses and LAE of $2,310,
claims handling fees of $4,875, and was less ceding commission of $1,199. Of the total withdrawal, the
Company received $4,875 in payment for reimbursement and fees receivable under TPA service on October 26,
2023.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the balance of funds withheld for assumed business related to the
Company’s quota share reinsurance agreements with United was $11,690 and $30,087, respectively.
Citizens Assumption
As described in Note 1 — “Nature of Operations” with regards to Citizens assumptions, assumed
premiums written related to Citizens policies were approximately $315,100 and $224,800 for the years ended
December 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
The ratio of assumed premiums earned to net premiums earned for the years ended December 31, 2024,
2023 and 2022 was 31.95%, 6.18%, and 15.80%, respectively.
Note 15 — Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
The Company establishes reserves for the estimated total unpaid costs of losses including LAE. Loss
and LAE reserves reflect management’s best estimate of the total cost of (i) claims that have been incurred, but
not yet paid in full, and (ii) claims that have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company (“IBNR”).
Reserves established by management represent an estimate of the outcome of future events and, as such, cannot
be considered an exact calculation of our liability. Rather, loss and LAE reserves represent management’s best
estimate of the Company’s liability based on the application of actuarial techniques and other projection
methodologies and taking into consideration other facts and circumstances known at the balance sheet date. The
process of establishing loss and LAE reserves is complex and inherently imprecise, as it involves the estimation
of the outcome of future uncertain events. The impact of both internal and external variables on ultimate losses
and LAE costs is difficult to estimate. In determining loss and LAE reserves, the Company gives careful
consideration to all available data and actuarial analyses.
When a claim is reported to the Company, the claims personnel establish a “case reserve” for the
estimated amount of the ultimate amount payable to settle the claim. This estimate reflects an informed judgment
based upon general insurance reserving practices and on the experience and knowledge of the claims adjuster.
The individual estimating the reserve considers the nature and value of the specific claim, the severity of injury
or damage, location, and the policy provisions relating to the type of loss. Case reserves are adjusted as more
information becomes available. It is the Company’s policy to settle each claim as expeditiously as possible.
Reserves are closely monitored and are recalculated periodically using the most recent information on
reported claims and a variety of actuarial techniques. Specifically, claims management personnel complete
weekly and ongoing reviews of existing case reserves, new claims, changes to existing case reserves, and paid
losses with respect to the current and prior years. As the Company continues to expand historical data regarding
paid and incurred losses, the data is used to develop expected ultimate loss and LAE ratios, then these expected
loss and LAE ratios are applied to earned premium to derive a reserve level for each line of business. In
connection with the determination of these reserves, other specific factors such as recent weather-related losses,
trends in historical reported and paid losses, and litigation and judicial trends regarding liability will also be
90

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
considered. Therefore, the loss ratio method, among other methods, is used to project an ultimate loss
expectation, and then the related loss history must be regularly evaluated and loss expectations updated, with the
possibility of variability from the initial estimate of ultimate losses.
The Company maintains IBNR reserves to provide for claims that have been incurred but have not
been reported and subsequent development on reported claims. The IBNR reserve is determined by estimating
the Company’s ultimate net liability for both reported and unreported claims and then subtracting the case
reserves and payments made to date for reported claims.
Loss and LAE Reserve Estimation Methods. The Company applies the following general methods in
projecting reserves for losses and LAE:
•
Reported loss development;
•
Paid loss development;
•
Paid Bornhuetter-Ferguson method;
•
Reported Experience-Modified Bornhuetter-Ferguson method;
•
Paid Experience-Modified Bornhuetter-Ferguson method;
•
Loss ratio method;
•
Several variations of the Frequency-Severity method, depending on exposure; and
•
A factor load to loss and allocated LAE reserves for the unallocated LAE.
Selected reserves are based on a review of the indications from these methods as well as other
considerations such as emergence since the most recent evaluation and number of open claims for a given
accident period.
Currently, the estimated ultimate liability is calculated using the principles and procedures described
above, which are applied to the lines of business written. However, because the establishment of loss and LAE
reserves is an inherently uncertain process, ultimate losses and LAE may exceed the established loss and LAE
reserves and have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Changes in
estimates, or differences between estimates and amounts ultimately paid, are reflected in the operating results of
the period during which such adjustments are made.
The Company’s reported results, financial position and liquidity would be affected by likely changes in
key assumptions that determine the net loss reserves. However, it is believed that a reasonably likely increase or
decrease in the severity of claims could impact our net loss reserves.

* Net balance represents beginning-of-year liability for unpaid losses and LAE less beginning-of-year
reinsurance recoverable for unpaid losses and LAE.
The establishment of loss and LAE reserves is an inherently uncertain process and changes in loss and
LAE reserve estimates are expected as these estimates are subject to the outcome of future events. Changes in
estimates, or differences between estimates and amounts ultimately paid, are reflected in the operating results of
the period during which such adjustments are made. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company
decreased losses related to prior years by $5,495 primarily due to positive development trends for non-
catastrophe claims.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred net estimated losses of
approximately $78,157, $43,000 and $6,500 due to Hurricane Milton, Hurricane Helene, and Hurricane Debby,
respectively. Losses and LAE for the 2023 loss year included net estimated losses of approximately $68,339
attributable to United-related policies and $7,875 related to policies assumed from Citizens. In 2022, net losses
and LAE related to Hurricane Ian were estimated at $65,300 for all insurance lines of business. Of the total losses
and LAE retained by the Company, $7,000 was attributable to flood losses exceeding the maximum amount of
coverage provided by reinsurers.

Note 16 — Variable Interest Entities
HCI holds variable interests in two reciprocal insurance exchanges, CORE and Tailrow. The reciprocal
insurance exchanges are owned by their policyholders, referred to as subscribers, who gain ownership by buying
an insurance policy and making a surplus contribution. Each subscriber has certain interests in the insurance
exchanges which include the right to appoint an attorney-in-fact (“AIF”), to vote for the subscribers’ advisory
committees and to receive dividends or premium credits if the reciprocal insurance exchanges generate a surplus.
At least two-thirds of the membership of the advisory committees must be subscribers who are independent of
the AIF. The advisory committees are charged with overseeing the financial affairs of the reciprocal insurance
exchanges.
CORE
At inception, CORE had no subscribers nor sufficient surplus to fund its insurance operations without
additional financial support. HCI provided CORE with $25,000 in exchange for a 9% subordinated surplus note.
As a result, CORE is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). In addition, CORE entered into an AIF
agreement with CRM, a wholly owned subsidiary of HCI. The AIF agreement, which was approved by the
FLOIR, can be terminated at any time by mutual agreement of both parties or with cause, if the FLOIR or a court
of competent jurisdiction determines that a material breach of the agreement has occurred. Under the AIF
agreement, CRM, with the power of attorney given by the subscribers, will directly or indirectly conduct the
daily operations of CORE by underwriting insurance policies, collecting premiums, investing funds, and
processing claims. As such, subscribers do not possess the power to directly manage CORE’s operations. The
AIF agreement also permits CRM to contract with service providers including other HCI subsidiaries to perform
certain functions. The activities which most significantly impact CORE’s anticipated economic performance are
its underwriting and investment results. The management and service agreements, together with HCI’s
subordinated surplus note in CORE, exposes HCI to more than an insignificant amount of CORE’s expected
economic performance. As such, HCI has variable interests in CORE.
Since HCI has the power to direct the activities of CORE that most significantly affect CORE’s
economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from CORE that could
potentially be significant to CORE via the subordinated surplus note and the management and service
agreements, HCI is considered the primary beneficiary of CORE, a VIE.
97

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
At December 31, 2024, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to CORE was $25,000.
CORE’s assets are legally restricted for the purpose of fulfilling obligations specific to CORE. The creditors of
CORE have no legal right to pursue additional sources of payment from the Company.
Tailrow
At the reporting date, Tailrow had no subscribers. It received initial funding through the issuance of a
$25,000 subordinated surplus note with an annual interest rate of 9% to Tailrow Funding, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of HCI. Since Tailrow initially lacked sufficient funding and was capitalized with cash received from
the Company, it is considered to be a VIE. Similar to CORE, Tailrow has an AIF agreement with TRM to
perform administrative duties for the overall functioning of Tailrow. Moreover, TRM is allowed to enter into
service agreements with other HCI subsidiaries on behalf of Tailrow’s subscribers. With this authority, TRM will
be responsible for directly and indirectly managing Tailrow’s operations, including the underwriting and
investment activities which have the greatest impact on Tailrow’s financial performance. HCI has variable
interests in Tailrow and is considered its primary beneficiary as it is exposed to risk from Tailrow’s economic
performance, due to the borrowed funds of the surplus note and TRM’s management and service agreements.
At December 31, 2024, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to Tailrow was $25,000.
Tailrow’s assets are legally restricted for the purpose of fulfilling obligations specific to Tailrow and its creditors
have no legal right to pursue additional sources of payment from the Company.
As the primary beneficiary, HCI is required to consolidate these variable interest entities. Since HCI
has no equity at risk, each variable interest entity’s equity and results of operations are included in noncontrolling
interests. In the event of dissolution, subscribers of each variable interest entity will participate in the distribution
of any remaining equity after assets have been used to repay outstanding liabilities, including subordinated debts
such as HCI’s 9% subordinated surplus notes comprised of unpaid principal and accrued interest. Subscribers
will not be liable for any shortfall in equity.

Note 17 — Segment Information
The Company identifies its operating divisions based on managerial emphasis, organizational structure
and revenue source. With the transaction described in Change in Segment Information under Note 1 — “Nature
of Operations,” the Company now operates under five reportable segments: insurance operations, TypTap Group,
reciprocal exchange operations, real estate operations, and corporate and other. Due to their economic
characteristics, the Company’s property and casualty insurance division and reinsurance operations, excluding
the insurance operations under reciprocal exchange operations, are grouped together into one reportable segment
under insurance operations. The TypTap Group segment includes information technology operations, insurance
management service operations, and its management company’s activities. The reciprocal exchange segment
represents the insurance operations of CORE and Tailrow, consolidated VIEs. The real estate operations segment
includes companies engaged in operating commercial properties the Company owns for investment purposes or
for use in its own operations. The corporate and other segment represents the activities of the holding companies
and any other companies, such as CRM and TRM, that do not meet the quantitative and qualitative thresholds for
a reportable segment. The determination of segments may change over time due to changes in operational
emphasis, revenues, and results of operations. The Company’s chief executive officer, who serves as the
Company’s chief operating decision maker, evaluates each division’s financial and operating performance based
on revenue and operating income.

(d)
The income (loss) before income taxes in the reclassification/elimination column is attributable to
intercompany transactions among operating segments. The insurance operations and the reciprocal exchange
operations record service fee expenses based on earned premiums or other appropriate measures, while
TypTap Group and the AIF operations recognize service fee revenues according to revenue recognition
standards. Although both service fee expenses and revenues are fully eliminated on consolidation, they do
not completely offset each other in this presentation due to the different methods of recognition.

The Company has no uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would
impact the effective income tax rates for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022. The tax returns
105

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
filed for the years ending December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 remain subject to examination by the Company’s
major taxing jurisdictions. The Company elected to classify interest and penalties, if any, arising from uncertain
tax positions as income tax expense as permitted by current accounting standards. For the year ended
December 31, 2024, the Company recognized approximately $2 of interest expense on underpayments related to
income tax liabilities and classified that interest as income tax expense, compared to approximately $150 for the
year ended December 31, 2023. There were no material amounts of interest or penalties for the year ended
December 31, 2022.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded $45,846 and $28,393 of
income tax expense, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 26.4% and 24.1%, respectively. For the year
ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $13,815, resulting in an effective tax
rate of 20.2%. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2024 as compared with 2023 was primarily attributable to
a lower prior year effective tax rate resulting from the release of the valuation allowance during 2023 and a
higher effective tax rate resulting from certain non-deductible compensation expense for 2024.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

A valuation allowance must be established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that
the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on available evidence both positive and negative, including
recent operating results, available tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income. The Company
evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets each quarter and as of December 31, 2024, based on all
available evidence, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be
realized, other than a valuation allowance on the sale of TTIC by TTIG to HCI in the amount of $544 related to
the deferred intercompany taxable loss that arose during the third quarter of 2024. The Company did not have a
valuation allowance established as of December 31, 2023.
Note 20 — Earnings Per Share
U.S. GAAP requires the Company to use the two-class method in computing basic earnings (loss) per
share since holders of the Company’s restricted stock have the right to share in dividends, if declared, equally
with common stockholders. These participating securities affect the computation of both basic and diluted
earnings (loss) per share during periods of net income or loss. For a majority-owned subsidiary, its basic and
diluted earnings (loss) per share are first computed separately. Then, the Company’s proportionate share in that
majority-owned subsidiary’s earnings is added to the computation of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per
share at a consolidated level.
A summary of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per common share is

On January 22, 2024, TTIG entered into a Stock Redemption Agreement with Centerbridge which
allowed TTIG to redeem all of the TTIG Series A Preferred Stock held by Centerbridge. The redemption totaled
$100,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends of approximately $2,923. At redemption, the difference between the
consideration transferred of $102,923 and the redemption date carrying value of $96,695 is recorded as a deemed
dividend and is included in net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest which is subtracted
from net income when calculating income available to common stockholders.

Note 22 — Equity
Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
In March 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a plan to repurchase up to $20,000 of the
Company’s common shares before commissions and fees through December 31, 2022. The shares might be
111

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
purchased for cash in open market purchases, block transactions and privately negotiated transactions in
accordance with applicable federal securities laws. There was no share repurchase plan approved by the Board
for 2024 or 2023.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repurchased and retired 391,151 shares at
weighted average price per share of $43.61 under the authorized repurchase plan. The total costs of shares
repurchased under these plans, inclusive of fees and commissions, during the year ended December 31, 2022 was
$17,070, or $43.64 per share.
On December 11, 2023, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,150,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock at a price to the public of $78 per share, pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated as of
December 6, 2023 between the Company and Citizens JMP Securities, LLC, the representative of the several
underwriters named in the underwriting agreement. The Company received net proceeds of $84,572, including
$5,128 issuance costs. The Company intends to use the funds for general corporate purposes, including the
continued assumption of policies from Citizens.
On January 22, 2024, a new shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf Registration”) was
filed, replacing the Company’s old universal shelf registration statement filed in September 2023. The new Shelf
Registration permits the Company to offer and sell its common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants,
and stock purchase contracts and units, from time to time, subject to market conditions and its capital needs. The
Shelf Registration also had the effect of enabling Centerbridge to sell all or a portion of the amended and restated
warrant or the shares issuable pursuant to the warrant. As a part of the Shelf Registration, the Company also
announced the implementation of an “at-the-market” facility (the “ATM facility”) under which the Company
would have the ability to raise up to $75,000 through the issuance of new shares of common stock into the
market if it were to so choose.
On October 23, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per
common share. The dividends were paid on December 20, 2024 to stockholders of record on November 15, 2024.
Warrants
In connection with the redemption of the TTIG Series A Preferred Stock held by Centerbridge in
January 2024, HCI, for the benefit of TTIG, extended the expiration dates of 450,000 warrants, which will now
expire in 150,000 share increments on December 31, 2026, December 31, 2027, and December 31, 2028. The
remaining 300,000 share warrants retained their original expiration date of February 26, 2025 and were exercised
on March 11, 2024 through a cashless transaction, resulting in the issuance of 155,049 shares. The warrant
modifications resulted in a $3,386 increase in the fair value of the warrants, which is recorded as a deemed
dividend by decreasing retained income and increasing additional paid-in capital. The amount of deemed
dividend is included in net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest which is subtracted from net

On September 15, 2023, the Company awarded its chief executive officer, Paresh Patel, an option with
market-based vesting conditions to purchase 150,000 shares of its common stock. In December 2023, the award
met the conditions for vesting and as a result, the unrecognized compensation balance related to the award was
fully recognized. There were no options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $14, $2,197 and
$669, respectively, of compensation expense which was included in general and administrative personnel
expenses. There were no deferred tax benefits related to stock options for the years ended December 31, 2024,

Restricted Stock Awards
From time to time, the Company has granted and may grant restricted stock awards to certain executive
officers, other employees and nonemployee directors in connection with their service to the Company. The terms
of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock grants may include service, performance, and market-based
conditions. The determination of fair value with respect to the awards containing only service-based conditions is
based on the market value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. For awards with market-based conditions,
the fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method, which calculates many potential outcomes
for an award and then establishes fair value based on the most likely outcome.
On April 17, 2024, the Company awarded its Chief Executive Officer 200,000 restricted shares of
common stock. The shares will vest equally over a period of four years, with vesting dates of March 15, 2025,

Subsidiary Equity Plan
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, TypTap Group recognized compensation
expense related to its stock-based awards of $3,267, $2,927 and $3,512, respectively. At December 31, 2024 and
2023, there was $9,495 and $4,438, respectively, of unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested
restricted stock and stock options.
The sale of TTIC, as described in Note 1 — Nature of Operations, triggered a change in control clause
within TTIG’s equity incentive plan, causing all unvested stock-based awards to vest immediately except for
TTIG restricted stock and stock options issued to the chief executive officer of HCI. The expense from
immediate vesting approximated $1,087.
Note 24 — Employee Benefit Plans
The Company has a 401(k) Safe Harbor Profit Sharing Plan (“401(k) Plan”) that qualifies as a defined
contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the 401(k) Plan, participating
employees are eligible for company matching and discretionary profit sharing contributions. Plan participants
may elect to defer up to one hundred percent of their pre-tax gross wages, subject to annual limitations. The
Company’s matching contribution is limited to a maximum of four percent of the employee’s annual salary or
wage and is fully vested when contributed. Eligibility and vesting of the Company’s discretionary profit sharing
contribution is subject to the plan participant’s years of service. During the years ended December 31, 2024,
2023 and 2022, the Company contributed approximately $1,243, $1,124 and $1,037, respectively, in matching
contributions, which are included in general and administrative personnel expenses. There has been no
discretionary profit sharing contribution since the plan’s inception.
The Company also maintains benefit plans for its employees in India including a statutory post-
employment benefit plan, or gratuity plan, providing defined, lump-sum benefits. The Company’s liability for the
gratuity plan reflects the undiscounted benefit obligation payable as of the balance sheet date, which was based
upon the employees’ salary and years of service. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the amounts accrued under the
gratuity plan were $233 and $173, respectively. In addition, the Company provides matching contributions with
respect to two defined contribution plans: the Provident Fund and the Employees’ State Insurance Fund, both of
which are available to qualifying employees in India. Expense recognized by the Company for all benefit plans in
India was $59 for the year ended December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $47 of expense
was recognized whereas $32 of expense was derecognized for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 27 — Regulatory Requirements and Restrictions
The Company has no restrictions on the payment of dividends to its shareholders except those
restrictions imposed by insurance statutes and regulations applicable to the Company’s insurance subsidiaries. As
of December 31, 2024, without prior regulatory approval, $276,242 of the Company’s consolidated retained
earnings was free from restriction under the insurance statutes and regulations and available for the payment of
dividends in 2025.
U.S.-based
The Company’s U.S.-based insurance subsidiaries prepare their statutory financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities. Prescribed
statutory accounting practices are those practices that are incorporated directly or by reference in state laws,
regulations, and general administrative rules applicable to all insurance enterprises where they are domiciled.
Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices that are not prescribed; such
practices differ from state to state, may differ from entity to entity within a state, and may change in the future.
Some states have adopted laws, regulations, accounting practices and procedures issued by the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”).
U.S. GAAP differs in certain respects from the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by
insurance regulatory authorities (statutory-basis). Statutory-basis surplus differs from stockholders’ equity
reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP primarily because policy acquisition costs are expensed when incurred,
and different timing of recognizing the brokerage income for reinsurance recoverables. In addition, the
recognition of deferred tax assets is based on different recoverability assumptions and material differences may
also arise from the differing treatment of non-admitted assets and unrealized gains and losses from investments.

Florida property and casualty insurance companies are required to adhere to prescribed premium-to-
capital surplus ratios. Florida state law requires that the ratio of 90% of written premiums divided by surplus as
to policyholders does not exceed 10 to 1 for gross written premiums or 4 to 1 for net written premiums. The
ratios of gross and net written premiums to surplus, which the Company’s insurance subsidiaries have met the
requirements for, are summarized below:
Years Ended December 31,

State statutes in the domiciliary states of the Company’s U.S.-based subsidiaries typically restrict
annual dividend payments without prior regulatory approval. As a result, HCPCI was qualified to make dividend
payments at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. perRisk was qualified to pay dividends at December 31, 2024
and 2023. Without prior written approval, TTIC was not permitted to make any dividend payments.
Bermuda
The Bermuda Monetary Authority requires Claddaugh Casualty Insurance Company, Ltd.
(“Claddaugh”), the Company’s Bermuda domiciled reinsurance subsidiary, to maintain minimum capital and
surplus of $2,000. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, Claddaugh’s statutory capital and surplus was approximately
120

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)
$56,071 and $87,716, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2024, Claddaugh reported a statutory net
loss of approximately $9,642. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Claddaugh reported a statutory net income
of approximately $21,044 as opposed to a statutory net loss of approximately $21,575 for the year ended
December 31, 2022. There was no capital contribution to or return of capital from Claddaugh during 2024 and
2023. During 2022, the Company contributed approximately $31,868 of capital to Claddaugh.
The Company’s insurance subsidiaries are subject to risk-based capital (“RBC”) requirements as
specified by the NAIC or other regulatory authorities. Under those requirements, the amount of minimum capital
and surplus maintained by a property and casualty insurance company is to be determined based on the various
risks related to it. Pursuant to the RBC requirements, insurers having less statutory capital than required by the
RBC calculation will be subject to varying degrees of regulatory action, depending on the level of capital
inadequacy. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s insurance subsidiaries individually exceeded any
applicable minimum risk-based capital requirements and no corrective actions have been required. As of
December 31, 2024, the combined statutory capital and surplus and minimum capital and surplus of the
Company’s insurance subsidiaries were approximately $324,742 and $81,060, respectively.
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, restricted net assets represented by the Company’s insurance
subsidiaries amounted to $340,083 and $215,495, respectively.
Note 28 — Related Party Transactions
HCPCI and TTIC have reinstatement premium protection reinsurance contracts (“RPP”) with various
reinsurers. For one of the RPP contracts, Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited (“Oxbridge”) participates as a
subscribing reinsurer. One of the Company’s non-employee directors, Jay Madhu, serves as Oxbridge’s chairman
of its board of directors and chief executive officer and is an investor in that company. Under the contracts,
Oxbridge agrees to indemnify HCPCI and TTIC for a portion of reinstatement premium which HCPCI or TTIC
pays or becomes liable to pay to reinstate reinsurance protection. The $1,099 premium is paid over four
installments, each of which is to be deposited into a trust account in order to fully collateralize Oxbridge’s
obligations. Trust assets may be withdrawn by HCPCI and TTIC or the trust beneficiaries in the event amounts
are due under the 2024-2025 RPP contracts.

Note 30 — Subsequent Events
On January 1, 2025 the Company’s 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes became convertible by all holders,
as the Company’s closing share price of common stock for 20 trading days during the final 30 trading days of the
immediately preceding calendar quarter was greater than 130% of the conversion price of $80.54, thus fulfilling
the conversion conditions. The notes will remain convertible at least through March 31, 2025. The Company
plans to settle all conversions fully in common stock. The current conversion ratio is approximately 12.4166
shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of notes. In addition, the Company has the right to redeem the
4.75% Convertible Notes at any time after June 5, 2025, if the last reported sale price of the common stock has
been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during any 30 day consecutive trading day
period.
On January 14, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per
common share. The dividends are payable on March 21, 2025 to stockholders of record on February 21, 2025.
On February 18, 2025, Tailrow, a consolidated VIE, assumed polices from Citizens. As outlined in the
Consent Order issued by the FLOIR, Tailrow will assume approximately 14,000 policies, representing an
estimated $36,000 in annualized premiums written.

ITEM 9 – Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
ITEM 9A – Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (December 31, 2024). Our
disclosure controls and procedures are intended to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated
and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that,
as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of
any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our
financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations
of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial
reporting was effective.

consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and, as part of their audit, has
issued an attestation report, included herein, on our internal control over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over
financial reporting.
