-- 独立研究机构CFRA向提供了以下研究报告。CFRA分析师的观点总结如下： FFH公布的净利润为6.957亿美元（每股31.11美元），低于上一季度的9.457亿美元（每股42.70美元）。净利润下降的主要原因是净投资亏损3.859亿美元，而上一季度则因利率上升导致的债券市值损失而获得10.561亿美元的收益。财产及意外伤害保险业务表现显著优于其他业务，调整后营业收入从6.855亿美元增至12.134亿美元，综合比率从98.5%改善至94.1%，这主要得益于巨灾损失大幅下降，从7.813亿美元降至1.193亿美元。该公司预计将在第二季度完成两项重大交易：以约19亿美元的价格出售Poseidon 23.1%的股份，以及以9.35亿美元的价格出售Eurolife业务。 FFH斥资6.31亿美元回购了374,883股股票，扣除15美元的股息后，每股账面价值基本保持不变。鉴于尽管进行了积极的股票回购，但每股账面价值仍持平，我们认为本季度业绩并不亮眼。然而，综合比率的显著改善以及按市值计价带来的市场波动，使得公司基本面更具吸引力。

Even with the March shipment, exports over the past 12 months are down 75% from the previous year.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
