Total revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $2.0 billion, an increase of 43 percent relative to the first quarter of 2020. Net income in the current quarter was $233.6 million, or $2.10 per diluted share, compared with net income of $63.2 million, or 55 cents per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2020. Net realized investment gains in the current quarter were $66.8 million, or 46 cents per diluted share, compared with net realized investment losses of $64.8 million, or 50 cents per diluted share, in the first quarter of last year. The net realized gains in the current quarter were primarily due to gains recognized on venture investments, compared with net realized losses in the first quarter of last year that were primarily driven by the change in the fair value of equity securities.

“First American delivered outstanding results this quarter as the purchase, refinance and commercial markets were all strong,” said Dennis J. Gilmore, chief executive officer at First American Financial Corporation. “Our title segment posted a pretax margin of 17.1 percent, a record for the first quarter.

“Our venture strategy is continuing to show financial benefit with $42 million in gains recognized this quarter. More importantly, these investments are providing us with deep insight into proptech companies and most of the firms we have invested in have become strategic partners. In the first quarter, we also deployed capital by repurchasing 1.2 million shares for a total of $65 million, at an average price of $52.86 per share.

“I'm proud to share that First American has been named to the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list for the sixth consecutive year. I credit this outstanding accomplishment to our employees, as it was achieved through their commitment to each other, our customers and the communities where they live.”

Total revenues for the Title Insurance and Services segment during the first quarter were $1.9 billion, up 45 percent compared with the same quarter of 2020. Direct premiums and escrow fees were up 31 percent compared with the first quarter of 2020, driven by a 42 percent increase in the number of direct title orders closed that was partially offset by a 9 percent decline in the average revenue per direct title order closed. The average revenue per direct title order declined to $2,118, primarily due to the shift in the order mix from higher-premium commercial and purchase transactions to lower-premium residential refinance transactions. Agent premiums, which are recorded on approximately a one-quarter lag relative to direct premiums, were up 41 percent in the current quarter as compared with last year.

Information and other revenues were $275.4 million during the quarter, up 32 percent compared with the same quarter of last year. The increase was primarily due to the growth in mortgage originations that led to higher demand for the company’s title information products and the impact of the Docutech acquisition that closed in March of last year.

Investment income was $42.7 million in the first quarter, down $17.0 million, or 29 percent from the same quarter last year. The decline was primarily due to the impact of lower short-term interest rates on the investment portfolio and cash balances, partially offset by higher interest income from the company’s warehouse lending business. Net realized investment gains totaled $64.2 million in the current quarter, compared with net realized investment losses of $68.3 million in the first quarter of 2020. This quarter’s net realized investment gains were primarily driven by gains recognized on venture investments, compared with net realized losses in the first quarter of last year that were due primarily to the change in the fair value of equity securities.

Personnel costs were $504.1 million in the first quarter, an increase of $82.5 million, or 20 percent, compared with the same quarter of 2020. This increase was attributable to higher incentive compensation and an increase in the employee 401k match, due to rising profitability. Salary expense, overtime and temporary labor costs were also up due to the additional resources needed to process the elevated order volume.

Other operating expenses were $264.5 million in the first quarter, up $37.9 million, or 17 percent, compared with the first quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher production-related costs resulting from the growth in order volume, and higher software expense that was partly offset by lower travel expense.

The provision for policy losses and other claims was $60.1 million in the first quarter, or 4.0 percent of title premiums and escrow fees, a decrease from a 5.0 percent loss provision rate in the prior year. The current quarter rate reflects an ultimate loss rate of 4.0 percent for the current policy year with no change in the loss reserve estimates for prior policy years.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $36.7 million in the first quarter, up $7.2 million, or 24 percent, compared with the same period last year, due to higher amortization of software and other intangibles related to recent acquisitions.

Pretax income for the Title Insurance and Services segment was $321.6 million in the first quarter, compared with $73.0 million in the first quarter of 2020. Pretax margin was 17.1 percent in the current quarter, compared with 5.6 percent last year. Excluding the impact of net realized investment gains and losses, the pretax margin was 14.1 percent this year, compared with 10.3 percent last year.

Total revenues for the Specialty Insurance segment were $136.5 million in the first quarter of 2021, an increase of 12 percent compared with the first quarter of 2020. First-quarter revenue growth was driven by higher operating revenue in the home warranty business and higher net realized investment gains in both the home warranty and property and casualty businesses. The overall loss ratio for the segment was 62.7 percent, up from 52.3 percent last year, due to higher claim losses in both businesses. The home warranty business continued to experience elevated claims during the first quarter, primarily driven by the appliance and plumbing trades. The wind down of our property and casualty business is progressing on schedule, with policies beginning to non-renew in May. The property and casualty business posted a pretax loss of $6.6 million, primarily driven by higher losses related to weather events in the western U.S., compared with a pretax loss of $7.3 million in the first quarter of 2020.
