Joining us for today's presentation is Oxbridge Reave's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jay Madhu and Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary, Wrendon Timothy.

Operator00:00:27I would like to remind everyone that this call is also being broadcast live via webcast and available via webcast replay until May 23, 2024, on the Investor Information section of the Oxbridge Re website at www.oxbridgere.com. Now I would like to turn the call over to Wrendon Timothy, Chief Financial Officer of Oxbridge Re, who will provide the necessary cautions regarding the forward looking statements that will be made by management during this call. Please go ahead. Speaker 100:00:58Thank you, operator.

Forward looking statements are not guarantees of future results and conditions, but rather subject to various risks and uncertainties. Speaker 100:01:30A detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward looking statements is included in the section entitled Risk Factors contained in our 10 ks filed on March 26, 2024. The occurrence of any of these risks and uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial conditions and the volatility of our earnings, which in turn can cause significant market price and trading volume fluctuations for our securities.

And except as required by law, the company undertakes no obligation to update any forward looking statements contained on this call or in any company presentation, even if the company's expectations or any related events, conditions or circumstances change. Now, I'd like to turn the call over to our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jay Mandel. Speaker 200:02:21Jay? Hi, Randon, and thank you so much. Welcome, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. Let me start by saying we are proud of the significant steps we have taken in last year to fortify and diversify our business. Speaker 200:02:36Our core business remains reinsurance, where we write fully collateralized policies to cover property losses from specific catastrophes. And because we write fully collateralized contracts, believe we can compete effectively with large carriers. We specialize in underwriting low frequency high severity risk where we believe sufficient data exists to efficiently analyze the risk return profile of reinsurance contracts. Our objective is to achieve long term growth in book value per share by writing business on a selective and opportunistic basis that will generate attractive underwriting profits relative to risk. Building on the stable reinsurance foundation, we begin to diversify our business in 2021 as a lead sponsor of Oxbridge Acquisition Corp, a special purpose acquisition company or SPAC, focusing on investing in disruptive technology. Speaker 200:03:30In August of 2023, Oxbridge acquisition successfully completed its business combination with Jet AI Inc. The company develops software and offers fractional aircraft ownership, jet card aircraft brokerage and charter to its fleet of private aircraft and those of its operating partner. It operates in 2 segments, software and aviation. The software segment features the B2C Charter GPT app and the B2B Jet dotai operator platform. The Charter GPT app uses natural language processing and machine learning to improve the private jet booking experience. Speaker 200:04:06The Jet AI operator platform offers a suite of standalone software products such as Reroute and Dynaflight, which are carbon credits to enable FAA Part 135 charter operators to add revenue, maximize efficiency, and reduce environment impact. The Aviation segment features jet aircraft fractions, JET Cards, on fleet charter, management and buyers brokerage. With the completion of the business combination in 2023, the company began trading on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange. Our interest in jet dotai is recognized as fair value in other investments on our balance sheet. In 2020, we expanded our business portfolio by establishing Surence Plus Inc, a new subsidiary focused on Web3 technology. Speaker 200:04:55Assurance Plus specializes in democratizing tokenized real world assets or RWAs, offering tokenized reinsurance securities as alternative investment opportunities. These securities leverage blockchain technology to ensure complete transparency and compliance with SEC guidelines, representing a significant advancement in the digital security market. Consequently, this initiative aims to broaden investor participation, extending opportunities beyond what traditionally has been a select group of ultra high net worth individuals. Crucially, the establishment of Assurance Plus was achieved without incurring new debt or diluting equity for our shareholders, reflecting our efficient approach to diversification. We are enthusiastic about the prospects of the new investment and remain committed to keeping our shareholders informed of their progress in the upcoming quarters. Speaker 200:05:51Looking forward, we intend to reposition Oxbridge as a prominent player in the Real World Asset or RWA Web3 secondtor. Further details on the strategic direction will be shared later in the call. In summary, we maintain a strong sense of optimism regarding the long term outlook of our core reinsurance business alongside the successful integration of our new venture Jet AI and Insurance Plus as we embrace the RWA market more comprehensively. Now I'll turn things over to Wrendon to take us through our financial results. Wrendon? Speaker 100:06:24Thank you, Jay. I would like to remind you that our typical contract period for reinsurance contracts is from June 1 to May 31st the following year. Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents increased to $4,300,000 at March 31, 2024 compared to $3,700,000 at December 31, 2023. Net premiums earned for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased to $549,000 compared to 0 in last year's Q1. The increase is due to the contracts enforced during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 as opposed to the prior period in which premiums have accelerated prior to the quarter ended March 31, 2023 as a result of losses incurred from Hurricane Ian. Speaker 100:07:05There have been no losses incurred to date in 2024. Our net investment and other income decreased in the quarter to 62,000 from 89,000 in the prior year's Q1. We also recorded an unrealized loss of 688,000 on our other investments, the result of our remeasurement of our investment in Jet AI at fair value. We also recognized an $89,000 negative change in the fair value of our equity securities as of March 31, 2024, decreasing from $76,000 positive change in the prior year Q1. All of these factors taken together resulted in total revenues of negative $125,000 for 3 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $546,000 in the prior year's Q1. Speaker 100:07:48Total expenses including loss and loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition costs and general and admin expenses were up in the Q1 of 2024 to $548,000 from $444,000 last year. The increase in 2024 was due to higher professional and legal expenses incurred during the 3 month period ended March 31, 2024, as well as no policy acquisition costs recorded in the prior period. Due primarily to the negative change in the fair value of our equity securities and investment in Jet AI, during the quarter we generated a net loss of $905,000 or $0.15 per share for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024, compared to net income of $142,000 or $0.02 per share in last year's Q1. As we have discussed before on our investor calls, we use various measures to analyze the growth and profitability of our business operations. For our reinsurance business, we measure underwriting profitability by examining our loss ratio, acquisition ratio, expense ratio and combined ratio. Speaker 100:08:47Our loss ratio which measures underwriting profitability is the ratio of loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred and then premiums earned. With no loss or loss adjustment expenses in either of the Q4 of 2024 or 2023, the loss ratio was 0% for both periods. For acquisition cost ratio, which measures operational efficiency compares policy acquisition cost to net premiums earned. The acquisition cost ratio increased to 10.9 percent for the 3 month period ending March 31, 2024 from 0% for the same period last year. The increase is due primarily due to premiums being earned and acquisition costs being expensed during the period ended March 31, 2024 when compared with the prior period. Speaker 100:09:29Our expense ratio which measures operating performance compares policy acquisition costs and general and admin expenses with net premiums earned. Our expense ratio increased to 99.3% in the Q1 compared to 0% in the Q1 of 2023. The increase is due to higher general admin expenses and policy acquisition costs during the Q1 of 2024. Our combined ratio, which is used to measure underwriting performance, is the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. This ratio increased to 99.8% compared to 0% in the last year's Q1. Speaker 100:10:03The increase is due to the higher general and administrative expenses and policy acquisition costs incurred during the Q1 of 2024. Our investment portfolio decreased to $284,000 at March 31, 2024 from $688,000 at the prior period end, primarily as a result of the sale of equity securities and the decrease in fair value of the equity securities during the quarter. All investments decreased due to the fair value change Jet AI in which the company has an equity investment to measure that fair value. I'll now turn the call back over to Jay to wrap up before we take your questions. Speaker 200:10:39Thank you, Wrendon. As highlighted earlier in today's discussion, we have implemented decisive and substantial measures throughout this year and last to fortify and diversify our operations. In December of 2022, we established Assurance Plus, our wholly owned subsidiary with the objective of tokenized securities representing fractionalized interest in reinsurance contracts underwritten by our reinsurance subsidiary. In the Q2 of 2023, we successfully concluded the initial offering on these tokens through a $2,400,000 private placement. Furthermore, as previously reported, investors in our Delta Cat 3 tokens are poised to achieve returns exceeding 45%, beating the initial 42% projected. Speaker 200:11:21And despite the challenges posed by Hurricane Adalya, which made landfall as a Category 3 hurricane in 2023, we believe these are the 1st tokenized reinsurance securities backed by a publicly traded company. Insurance Plus is poised to democratize access to reinsurance as an alternative investment avenue, leveraging the inherent advantage of locked in technology to craft sophisticated digital securities. Our tokens aim to facilitate broader investor participation, ensuring that interests are securely and transparently recorded on the blockchain. These opportunities previously out of reach for many investors due to extremely high barriers to entry are now accessible through our innovative approach. Essentially, while repeating myself, we have democratized access to reinsurance. Speaker 200:12:09Subsequent to this, in mid August of 2023, our investment in special purpose acquisition company, Oxbridge Acquisition Corp, culminated in a business merger with Jet AI, a company specializing in fractional aircraft ownership, jet card service, aircraft brokerage and charter services facilitated by its fleet of private aircraft. Notably, our wholly owned subsidiary, Office Reinsurance Limited assumed the role of lead investor in the SPAC sponsorship. Concurrently, with the finalization of the business merger, the company successfully listed its common shares and warrants on the NASDAQ. These compelling opportunities not only augmented our business, but also enhanced our risk profile, strategically positioning us to capitalize on the growth with emerging technologies. We are especially enthusiastic about the anticipated value of these investments these investments hold and the benefits they offer to our shareholders. Speaker 200:13:07As previously mentioned, we are currently in the process of rebranding Oxbridge as an RWA Web3 focused company, leveraging the significant progress we have achieved this year. Forecast suggests an extraordinary expansion in the tokenized RWA market over the next decade, with estimates exceeding 10,000,000,000,000 This has been reinforced further recently as securitized offer that had secured $47,000,000 funding led by BlackRock to expand RWA tokenization. This growth trajectory is fueled by the escalating adoption of blockchain technology across various traditional financial sectors including fiat currency, equities, government bonds and real estates. Endorsements from institutions like BlackRock and Bank of America further affirm the transformative potential of tokenization in enhancing financial infrastructure efficiency, reducing costs and optimizing supply chain. Moreover, industry analysis from firms such as Boston Consulting Group anticipate a substantial surge in the tokenized asset market potentially reaching $16,000,000,000,000 by the year 2,030. Speaker 200:14:19As pioneers in this evolving landscape, we hold a strong sense of optimism regarding the value our rebranding efforts will unlock for our shareholders. We remain steadfast in our commitment to seizing the opportunities presented by this dynamic market shift. With that, we are ready to address any questions you may have. Operator, please provide the appropriate instructions. Operator00:14:42Thank you, sir. We will now begin the question and answer session. We do have a question from Duane Roberts at Rock Fleet Financial. Speaker 100:15:48Hi, Jay. How are you doing? How are you doing, gentlemen? Speaker 200:15:52Doing well. Thank you. Speaker 100:15:55The first RWA, has it closed yet? Have you already repaid back that capital on the first tranche? Speaker 200:16:05Yes. So the first one was last year. Those contracts were written June 1 last year to May 31st this year. That's a 1 year contract. The way they were written was it was based on a 3 year contract with a 1 year out. Speaker 200:16:23So the year hasn't finished. It's the contract year hasn't finished, that is. So after the end of this month is when those monies would be due, which we are on track to paying a 45% return. Okay. Speaker 100:16:40All right. Thank you. Speaker 200:16:42Thank you. Operator00:16:45And that does conclude our Q and A session. I will now turn the conference back over to Mr. Madhu for his closing remarks. Speaker 200:16:52Thank you for joining us on today's call. Before we conclude, I would like to extend my gratitude to our employees, business partners, and investors of their ongoing support.

The Charter GPT app uses natural language processing and machine learning to improve the private jet booking experience. Speaker 200:04:06The Jet AI operator platform offers a suite of standalone software products such as Reroute and Dynaflight, which are carbon credits to enable FAA Part 135 charter operators to add revenue, maximize efficiency, and reduce environment impact. The Aviation segment features jet aircraft fractions, JET Cards, on fleet charter, management and buyers brokerage. With the completion of the business combination in 2023, the company began trading on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange. Our interest in jet dotai is recognized as fair value in other investments on our balance sheet.

In summary, we maintain a strong sense of optimism regarding the long term outlook of our core reinsurance business alongside the successful integration of our new venture Jet AI and Insurance Plus as we embrace the RWA market more comprehensively. Now I'll turn things over to Wrendon to take us through our financial results. Wrendon? Speaker 100:06:24Thank you, Jay. I would like to remind you that our typical contract period for reinsurance contracts is from June 1 to May 31st the following year. Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents increased to $4,300,000 at March 31, 2024 compared to $3,700,000 at December 31, 2023. Net premiums earned for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased to $549,000 compared to 0 in last year's Q1. The increase is due to the contracts enforced during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 as opposed to the prior period in which premiums have accelerated prior to the quarter ended March 31, 2023 as a result of losses incurred from Hurricane Ian. Speaker 100:07:05There have been no losses incurred to date in 2024. Our net investment and other income decreased in the quarter to 62,000 from 89,000 in the prior year's Q1. We also recorded an unrealized loss of 688,000 on our other investments, the result of our remeasurement of our investment in Jet AI at fair value. We also recognized an $89,000 negative change in the fair value of our equity securities as of March 31, 2024, decreasing from $76,000 positive change in the prior year Q1. All of these factors taken together resulted in total revenues of negative $125,000 for 3 months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $546,000 in the prior year's Q1. Speaker 100:07:48Total expenses including loss and loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition costs and general and admin expenses were up in the Q1 of 2024 to $548,000 from $444,000 last year. The increase in 2024 was due to higher professional and legal expenses incurred during the 3 month period ended March 31, 2024, as well as no policy acquisition costs recorded in the prior period. Due primarily to the negative change in the fair value of our equity securities and investment in Jet AI, during the quarter we generated a net loss of $905,000 or $0.15 per share for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024, compared to net income of $142,000 or $0.02 per share in last year's Q1. As we have discussed before on our investor calls, we use various measures to analyze the growth and profitability of our business operations. For our reinsurance business, we measure underwriting profitability by examining our loss ratio, acquisition ratio, expense ratio and combined ratio. Speaker 100:08:47Our loss ratio which measures underwriting profitability is the ratio of loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred and then premiums earned. With no loss or loss adjustment expenses in either of the Q4 of 2024 or 2023, the loss ratio was 0% for both periods. For acquisition cost ratio, which measures operational efficiency compares policy acquisition cost to net premiums earned. The acquisition cost ratio increased to 10.9 percent for the 3 month period ending March 31, 2024 from 0% for the same period last year. The increase is due primarily due to premiums being earned and acquisition costs being expensed during the period ended March 31, 2024 when compared with the prior period. Speaker 100:09:29Our expense ratio which measures operating performance compares policy acquisition costs and general and admin expenses with net premiums earned. Our expense ratio increased to 99.3% in the Q1 compared to 0% in the Q1 of 2023. The increase is due to higher general admin expenses and policy acquisition costs during the Q1 of 2024. Our combined ratio, which is used to measure underwriting performance, is the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. This ratio increased to 99.8% compared to 0% in the last year's Q1. Speaker 100:10:03The increase is due to the higher general and administrative expenses and policy acquisition costs incurred during the Q1 of 2024. Our investment portfolio decreased to $284,000 at March 31, 2024 from $688,000 at the prior period end, primarily as a result of the sale of equity securities and the decrease in fair value of the equity securities during the quarter. All investments decreased due to the fair value change Jet AI in which the company has an equity investment to measure that fair value. I'll now turn the call back over to Jay to wrap up before we take your questions. Speaker 200:10:39Thank you, Wrendon. As highlighted earlier in today's discussion, we have implemented decisive and substantial measures throughout this year and last to fortify and diversify our operations.

Speaker 200:12:09Subsequent to this, in mid August of 2023, our investment in special purpose acquisition company, Oxbridge Acquisition Corp, culminated in a business merger with Jet AI, a company specializing in fractional aircraft ownership, jet card service, aircraft brokerage and charter services facilitated by its fleet of private aircraft. Notably, our wholly owned subsidiary, Office Reinsurance Limited assumed the role of lead investor in the SPAC sponsorship. Concurrently, with the finalization of the business merger, the company successfully listed its common shares and warrants on the NASDAQ. These compelling opportunities not only augmented our business, but also enhanced our risk profile, strategically positioning us to capitalize on the growth with emerging technologies. We are especially enthusiastic about the anticipated value of these investments these investments hold and the benefits they offer to our shareholders. Speaker 200:13:07As previously mentioned, we are currently in the process of rebranding Oxbridge as an RWA Web3 focused company, leveraging the significant progress we have achieved this year. Forecast suggests an extraordinary expansion in the tokenized RWA market over the next decade, with estimates exceeding 10,000,000,000,000 This has been reinforced further recently as securitized offer that had secured $47,000,000 funding led by BlackRock to expand RWA tokenization. This growth trajectory is fueled by the escalating adoption of blockchain technology across various traditional financial sectors including fiat currency, equities, government bonds and real estates. Endorsements from institutions like BlackRock and Bank of America further affirm the transformative potential of tokenization in enhancing financial infrastructure efficiency, reducing costs and optimizing supply chain. Moreover, industry analysis from firms such as Boston Consulting Group anticipate a substantial surge in the tokenized asset market potentially reaching $16,000,000,000,000 by the year 2,030. Speaker 200:14:19As pioneers in this evolving landscape, we hold a strong sense of optimism regarding the value our rebranding efforts will unlock for our shareholders. We remain steadfast in our commitment to seizing the opportunities presented by this dynamic market shift. With that, we are ready to address any questions you may have. Operator, please provide the appropriate instructions. Operator00:14:42Thank you, sir. We will now begin the question and answer session. We do have a question from Duane Roberts at Rock Fleet Financial. Speaker 100:15:48Hi, Jay. How are you doing? How are you doing, gentlemen? Speaker 200:15:52Doing well. Thank you. Speaker 100:15:55The first RWA, has it closed yet? Have you already repaid back that capital on the first tranche? Speaker 200:16:05Yes. So the first one was last year. Those contracts were written June 1 last year to May 31st this year. That's a 1 year contract. The way they were written was it was based on a 3 year contract with a 1 year out.
