Results for the half year ended September 30, 2018 show gross premium written increased from N11 billion in 2017 to N12 billion in 2018. Profit before tax dipped slightly from N2 billion in 2017 to N1.89 billion in 2018. The drop in profit before tax was however minute, moving from N1.69 billion in 2017 to N1.6 billion in 2018.

The company was in October last year  fined N575,000 and removed from the NSE’s corporate governance index. This followed a petition by some shareholders, that they had not been given adequate notification pertaining to an Annual General Meeting (AGM).
