Review of Group Operations Half Yearly Financial Statements - 30 June 2025

Commentary

The Directors present the unaudited consolidated interim results of MAPFRE Middlesea p.l.c..

The Group has in the half year ending 30 June 2025 registered a profit before tax of €14.24 million against the comparative of €12.18 million. The profit after tax and non-controlling interests, allocated to shareholders, amounted to €6.97 million as compared to €6.03 million in 2024.

The Company's non-life business saw premium written registering a strong growth from the already improving levels of June 2024. Technical performance has yielded a significantly improved insurance service result in these six months derived from all lines of business with the exception of Health. Motor remained registering a lower claim frequency with negligible movements in claim cost averages. Large losses had a softer impact on the technical performance than in the comparative period. During the year the impact, as expected, was mainly in the Motor line of business whilst in 2024 these were mainly affecting other classes including Property and General Liability. Investment income excluding the dividend received from the subsidiaries MAPFRE MSV Life p.l.c. of a net €1.50 million and BEE Insurance Management of a net of €1.00 million, was generally in-line with comparative with improved realised income and lower unrealised gains.

MAPFRE MSV Life p.l.c. insurance and investment sales levels reached expectations registering a satisfactory growth in the first six months of the year, diversifying in its product suite to increase its offering in a highly competitive market. Investment returns have been positive and showing improvements against comparative income with realized income yielding a satisfactory return partly mitigated by negative unrealized movements. Profit for MAPFRE MSV Life p.l.c. was marginally above the comparative.

The Group is compliant with the regulatory capital requirements as stipulated by the MFSA which are in line with the Solvency II requirements and continues to maintain its healthy Solvency position as a result of the attained positive results.

Financial highlights for the half year

  • · General Business Gross Premium written increased by 10.8% from €55.22 million in 2024 to €61.19 million as at the 30 June 2025.
  • · Long term Gross business Written by the Group registered a growth of 2.9% to £117.26 million compared to €113.99 million in the comparative period of 2024.

  • · Net Insurance, Investment and Reinsurance contract Assets and Liabilities at 30 June 2025 marginally increased by 0.3% to €2.21 billion compared to the 31 December 2024 net liabilities.

The net asset value per share stands at €1.07 as at June 2025.
  • · Both insurance companies in the Group are compliant with the regulatory solvency requirements under Solvency II regime as at June 2025.

Outlook

Whilst acknowledging these results to be satisfactory and meeting set targets in the evolution of the new three-year strategic plan, the Directors look at the second half of 2025 with cautious optimism cognizant of the inherent risks underlying the nature of business the Group operates and the impacts these might have on results.

In line with Company policy, the Board of Directors do not propose to pay an interim dividend for the half year ended 30 June 2025 (2024 - nil).
