Performance and Challenges

Oxbridge Re Holdings Ltd reported a net loss of $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, a significant improvement from the $9.9 million net loss in the previous year. The company's performance was bolstered by an increase in net premiums earned, which rose to $2.3 million from $1.3 million in the prior year. This increase is attributed to higher rates on contracts and a full twelve months of premium recognition in 2024 compared to only seven months in the prior year.

Despite the improved financial performance, the company faced challenges, including a decrease in the negative change in the fair value of its investment in Jet.AI, which was sold after the year-end. This factor, along with accounting for non-controlling interests, impacted the overall financial results.

Financial Achievements

Oxbridge Re Holdings Ltd's strategic focus on tokenized Real-World Assets (RWAs) through its subsidiary SurancePlus Inc. has positioned the company as a pioneer in the reinsurance industry. The company became the first public entity to issue a security token in reinsurance, significantly lowering the barrier to entry for investors. This innovation is crucial as it democratizes access to reinsurance, traditionally an asset class requiring substantial capital.

Key Financial Metrics

For the year ended December 31, 2024, Oxbridge Re Holdings Ltd reported total expenses of $2.1 million, down from $2.3 million in the prior year. The decrease is attributed to efficiencies associated with SurancePlus offerings and lower general and administrative expenses. The company's cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, increased to $5.8 million from $3.7 million at the end of 2023, primarily due to new collateral deposits.

Metric 2024 2023
Net Premiums Earned $2.3 million $1.3 million
Net Loss $2.7 million $9.9 million
Total Expenses $2.1 million $2.3 million
Cash and Cash Equivalents $5.8 million $3.7 million
