FARGO, N.D., Aug. 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NI Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:NODK) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.  Significant items included:

  • Net income attributable to NI Holdings of $0.1 million for second quarter 2017 compared to a loss of $1.8 million for second quarter 2016.
  • Net premiums earned of $45.7 million, an increase of 22.9% over second quarter 2016.

“We are pleased with our continued growth, and our bottom line results are in line with our expectations for the quarter,” said Michael J. Alexander, President and CEO.  “While second quarter results in this industry are typically impacted by higher frequency and severity of weather related losses, our experience this year improved significantly over last year and were within expectations for our property and casualty lines of business.  Second quarter also marks the start of the crop insurance season, and 2017 has gotten off to a challenging start with drought conditions across the western portions of North Dakota.”
