Presurance Holdings, Inc. reported a third-quarter net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.43 per share, as gross written premiums fell 57.8% to $6.2 million. The company's combined ratio reached 113.2% for the quarter, driven by reserve strengthening in its legacy commercial run-off book, specifically the discontinued Security Guard business.

Third-quarter gross written premiums collapsed 57.8% to $6.2 million, the company posted another quarterly net loss of $1.6 million (EPS -$0.43), and the combined ratio of 113.2% signals an ongoing underwriting loss driven by new reserve strengthening in the legacy commercial run-off book. Book value per share has halved to $6.45 from $14.49. Improvement in ratios and a positive nine-month net income of $3.5 million argue against a harsher read, but the shrinking premium base and repeated reserve charges weigh on the stock.
