esure Group plc - Trading update for the three months ended 31 March 2018
Strong growth in premiums and policies; exceptional weather costs in Q1
Trading update
2018 2017 Movement Q1 Q1 Gross written premiums (GBPm) 221.2 187.4 +18.0% Motor 201.4 166.3 +21.1% Home 19.8 21.1 (6.2)% In-force policies (millions) 2.426 2.222 +9.2% Motor 1.956 1.679 +16.5% Home 0.470 0.543 (13.4)% Additional services revenues (GBPm) 34.0 28.2 +20.6%
Darren Ogden, Interim Chief Executive Officer of esure Group plc, commented:
"Our premium and policy growth in Q1, through a strong performance in Motor, is particularly pleasing as we continue with our footprint expansion programme. Following the first reading of the Civil Liability Bill on 20 March 2018 competition in the market has increased. The Group will remain disciplined in its rating actions as it targets 3 million in-force policies by 2020.
"During the first quarter, the UK suffered a prolonged freeze event and significant disruption from 'The Beast from the East' and 'Storm Emma' and this resulted in GBP8m of claims costs in Home, which is GBP6m ahead of expectations. I would like to thank colleagues for their dedication in helping our customers during this period in what were testing times.
"After adjusting for the exceptional weather costs seen in the first quarter, the Group remains on track to achieve a combined operating ratio similar to 2017 and well placed to deliver profitable growth in 2018."
