The operating profit before tax totalled MNOK 24.6, down from 107.3m in Q1-17. The Q1 result is driven by both a weak technical result and a weak financial result.
The net profit for the quarter totalled to MNOK -2.4 compared to MNOK 81.0 in Q1-17.
The net combined ratio was 95.1 %, 8.1 percentage points higher than the 87.0 % reported in Q1-17. The net combined ratio by country was:
| Net combined ratio | Q1 2018 | Q1 2017 |

| Denmark | 106,5 % | 87,0 % |
| UK | 58,0 % | 93,5 % |
| Total | 92,5% | 91,4% |
The poor claims ratio in Norway is driven by motor, liability, health and loss of license, while in Denmark the ratio is driven by property and workman's compensation. The claims ratio in Sweden is good in all lines, while Finland and UK is too early to conclude.
The gross expense ratio was 8.3 % up from 7.1 % in Q1-17. The gross expense ratio by country was:
| Gross expense ratio | Q1 2018 | Q1 2017 |
|---|---|---|
| Norw ay incl. Finland | 6,9 % | 4,1 % |

| Denmark | 5,4 % | 6,3 % |
| UK | 14,0 % | 105,9 % |
| Total | 8,3% | 7,1% |
The increase in the gross expense ratio is driven by the long term bonus scheme which is based on the share price development, some technical changes and some minor one-offs.
The net investment portfolio amounted to a total of MNOK 10,217 at March 31st , 2018, up 9.8 % compared to the portfolio end of Q1-17.

At the end of Q1-18, 18.4 % of Protector's financial assets were invested in equities, against 17.6 % at the yearend of 2017.
The company is well capitalized under the Solvency II regime. Solvency capital requirement (SCR) ratio using standard formula is 195 % as of March 31 st , 2018. The company's goal is to maintain a solvency coverage ratio (calculated according to the Solvency II regulations) above 150%.
The Board is satisfied with the overall premium growth and expects continued strong growth in 2018, despite strong competition in all markets.
The quarter is showing weaker claims results combined with a weak financial result. Uncertainty in claims development, and the inherent volatility of capital markets, continue to be the most important risk factors that could affect the company's profit in 2018.

The fair value of listed investments is based on the current sales price. Financial instruments measured at fair value are valued on a daily basis. Directly observable prices in the market are used as far as possible. The valuations for the different types of financial instruments are based on recognized methods and models.
Level 1: Financial instruments valued on the basis of quoted prices for identical assets in active markets
This category encompasses listed equities that over the previous three months have experienced average daily trading equivalent to approximately MNOK 20 or more. Based on this, the equities are
regarded as sufficiently liquid to be included at this level. Bonds, certificates or equivalent instruments issued by national governments are generally classified as level 1.
Level 2: Financial instruments valued on the basis of observable market information not covered by level 1
This category encompasses financial instruments that are valued on the basis of market information that can be directly observable or indirectly observable. Market information that is indirectly observable means that the prices can be derived from observable related markets. Level 2 includes shares or equivalent equity instruments for which market prices are available, but where the volume of transactions is too limited to fulfil the criteria in level 1. Shares in this level will normally have been traded during the last month. Bonds and equivalent instruments are generally classified in this level. Foreign exchange derivatives are classified as level 2. Fund investments are generally classified as level 2.
Level 3: Financial instruments valued on the basis of information that is not observable in accordance with level 2
If one or more of the key parameters in a valuation model is not based on observable market data,
