Sava Re announced unaudited earnings results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2018. For the first quarter, the company's gross premiums written rose by 4.4% year on year to EUR 167.0 million. The Sava Re Group generated a pre-tax profit of EUR 6.6 million in the first quarter of 2018. While this is 42% below the year-on-year figure, the Group believes that the impacts of adverse claims development in its international markets and interim movements in expenses will be offset by the end of the year.
The company expect to achieve the target profit for 2018, despite the weaker first quarter result.
