      ITASCA, Ill., May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - (NYSE: KFS) Kingsway Financial Services Inc. ("Kingsway" or the "Company") today announced its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which includes the following highlights:

      • Net income was $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of ($0.4) million for the same period in 2020;
      • Non-GAAP adjusted income was $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to Non-GAAP adjusted loss of ($1.1) million for the same period in 2020;
      • Extended Warranty operating income increased to $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $0.9 million for the same period in 2020, while non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased to $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $1.2 million for  the same period for 2019.
      • The results above are inclusive of a benefit from loan forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), as described more fully below.

      "The three months ended March 31, 2021 include a full quarter of PWI results for the first time since we acquired it in December 2020," said JT Fitzgerald, Kingsway CEO.  He continued, "while early, we are very pleased with the results Edmund and his leadership team have delivered to date.  We are also pleased with the solid results delivered by Kingsway's other extended warranty businesses as they continued to navigate an uncertain environment."

      Non-GAAP Adjusted (Loss) Income

      For the three months ended March 31, 2021, non-GAAP adjusted (loss) income improved from a loss of ($1.1) million in 2020 to income of $4.3 million in 2021.  Included in 2021 is a benefit from the PPP loan forgiveness of $2.5 million and three months of PWI results.

      Reconciliations of net (loss) income to non-GAAP adjusted (loss) income are presented in the attached schedules.

      Extended Warranty

      The Extended Warranty service fee and commission revenue increased 66% (or $7.4 million) to $18.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.  The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of PWI ($7.4 million) for the first quarter of 2021 following its acquisition effective December 1, 2020. 

      The Extended Warranty operating income was $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.  The increase in operating income is primarily due to the following:

      • $2.2 million of PPP loan forgiveness related to Extended Warranty companies included in 2021;
      • $1.1 million due to the inclusion of PWI in 2021 following its acquisition effective December 1, 2020;
      • A $0.4 million increase at IWS to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in claims authorized on vehicle service agreements and lower general and administrative expenses that was partially offset by a slight decrease in revenue; 
      • A $0.3 million increase at Trinity to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, driven by increased revenues in its equipment breakdown and maintenance support services, as well as increased margin on the extended warranty services product, partially offset by a related increase in cost of services sold, compared to the same period in 2020;
      • A $0.2 million increase at Geminus for the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $0.5 million, primarily due to lower general and administrative expenses that was partially offset by a slight decrease in revenue compared with the three months ended March 31, 2020; and
      • A $0.2 million increase at PWSC to $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to a slight increase in revenue and lower general and administrative expenses.

      Extended Warranty Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased by $4.2 million to $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared with $1.2 million for the same period in 2020, primarily due to the increase in Extended Warranty operating income as explained above. 

      Reconciliations of operating income to Extended Warranty Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA are presented in the attached schedules.

      Leased Real Estate

      The Leased Real Estate contractually-fixed rental income was $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. 

      Leased Real Estate operating income was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.  The increase was primarily due to a $0.6 million benefit recorded in 2021 related to the finalization of management fees and legal expenses associated with the settlement of CMC litigation.  Leased Real Estate operating income includes interest expense of $1.5 million for each of the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020.  See Note 27, "Commitments and Contingent Liabilities", to our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for further information on the settlement.

      Non U.S. GAAP Financial Measure

      Company's operating results and enhances the overall ability to assess the Company's financial performance. The Company uses non-GAAP adjusted net earnings (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, together with other measures of performance under GAAP, to compare the relative performance of operations in planning, budgeting and reviewing the performance of its business. Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA allow investors to make a more meaningful comparison between the Company's core business operating results over different periods of time. The Company believes that non-GAAP adjusted net earnings (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company's results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about the Company's business without regard to potential distortions. By eliminating potential differences in results of operations between periods caused by the factors listed in the attached schedules, the Company believes that non-GAAP adjusted net earnings (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA can provide useful additional basis for comparing the current performance of the underlying operations being evaluated.  Investors should consider these non GAAP measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, financial reporting measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP to understand the Company's performance taking into account all relevant factors.
