1. Due to the payment of indemnities for the Aviation hull insurance of the aircraft Ka-32T of the foreign airline crashed in Romania on April 26, 2012, the indemnities have increased in the 9 months of 2012 and have amounted to UAH 19,983 mln that exceed in 15,27 times the same indicator of 2011. Gross premiums have amounted to UAH 59,933 mln in the first three quarters of 2012 that is by 17,71% higher than the indicator in the same period of 2011.
2. A significant growth of insurance indemnities has negatively affected the financial result from operating activity and the net profit of the Company. Thus, the financial result from operating activity of the insurer has amounted to UAH 5,465 mln in the 9 months of 2012. Net profit has amounted to UAH 4,312 mln in the same period. Indicators of ROS and ROE have amounted to 9,12% and 8,32%, respectively. However, the Company has managed to return to the profitable activity according to the results of the 9 months of 2012.
3. In the period from 01.10.2011 to 01.10.2012 the assets of IC «Busin» have increased by 17,56% and have amounted to UAH 98,464 mln as of the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in liabilities has amounted to 28,72% and its amount has equaled to UAH 46,652 mln on 01.10.2012. At the same time, shareholders’ equity has increased from UAH 47,517 mln up to UAH 51,812 mln, or by 9,04%. Despite the priority growth rates of liabilities over shareholders’ equity, IC «Busin» remains the overcapitalized company, as indicated by the ratio of shareholders’ equity to liabilities of the insurer at the level 111,06%.
4. Cash at the Company’s accounts has amounted to UAH 36,86 mln on 01.10.2012 that is only by 3,05% less than the indicator on 01.10.2011. But, taking into account the growth of liabilities by 28,72% in the last 12 months, the ratio of cash to liabilities of the insurer has decreased by 25,90 p.p. and has amounted to 79,01% as of 01.10.2012. This indicator demonstrates a sufficient level of the Company’s liquidity.
JSC IC «Busin» specializes in insurance of large risks. That is why, large indemnities on insured accidents don’t bear a significant threat to the financial stability of the Company as indicated by an excessive level of capitalization and a sufficient level of the insurer’s liquidity, and also by the fact of the company’s returning to the profitable activity according to the results of the 9 months of 2012.
