I have been in this since about 2.50. They are a Property and Casualty insurer in Florida that has taken huge advantage of the exit of the larger companies. They reported .44 for 06. (.19 for 05) Of the .44 almost half (.20) was in the fourth quarter. They continue to add policies and the next two quarters will be hurricane free numbers. They announced yesterday that they have been approved for AMEX and will start trading under the symbol UVE on Monday. They have over 6 dollars a share in cash on hand. First quarter numbers should be in mid may and I expect them to be lights out. Take a look and please add your thoughts.

.04 April 06 .04 June 06 .05 October 06 .05 March 07 .07 scheduled for August I fully expect this divvy to keep going up as well because it is the main way that the guys who run this company pay themselves. Nevermind the fact that the cash on hand keeps going up and at some point they will have to level that off.

This is not for someone who wants to make some quick cash. I personally have my homeowners policy with this company. If everyone pays as much as I do for my 2000 square foot house then these guys will be banking. I am holding this for a while.
