Lovers of vintage finds perused the 15th Reclaimed Artisans Vintage Outdoor Market Saturday in Libertyville
Area vintage-lovers were on the hunt Saturday — in search of memories, handmade craftsmanship, and contemporary inspiration from artists putting their own unique spin on historic treasures. The 15th Reclaimed Artisans Vintage Outdoor Market was held on Saturday at 302 Peterson Road in Libertyville from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. This bi-annual event, offered in the Spring and the Fall, featured 50 dealers, and highlighted a diverse collection of refinished and repurposed furniture, vintage and antique home décor, knitted items, clothing, jewelry, food products, flowers, metal art and more. Eric and Lisa Struif, co-owners of Reclaimed Artisans, Inc., say they started the outdoor market as a way to inspire collectors and provide opportunities for artists to show their work. 'By offering products that go beyond the big box stores and online ordering, it is really our way of saving the planet and bringing childhoods back to life,' Eric Struif said. 'The participating market dealers are using old table legs and planters or plant stands, old desks as a pair of night stands, old glasses as sculpture for the garden, and unique jewelry made out of skeleton and typewriter keys, truly amazing,' Struif added. In addition, Saturday's market also incorporated Animal Education & Rescue and Reach Rescue as well as local food dealers Pizzeria DeVille and Badazz Marketing-Happy, along with performances by local music artist Kyle Young. 'We focus on artists working with handmade, recycling and repurposing art, because these items are slowly disappearing, and we want to promote their exposure to collectors and home décor creators,' Struif said. Struif says the event is very important for many of the participating dealers who have jobs and families and other responsibilities that keep them from opening their own stores or having their own commercial outlet. Kerri and Kim Kilpatrick of Palatine participated and say they are not official antique dealers, but citizens trying to sell off items held in their mother's estate after the many years she dedicated to treasure collecting. 'Anytime we can find a good home for one of our mom's treasures, and see someone's face light up with the excitement of adding to their own collection, that makes it all worthwhile,' Kerri Kilpatrick said. Debbie Thompson of Flip Creations has built a business around recycling and upcycling objects she collects at flea markets and estate sales and by reimaging these as jewelry, accessories, and home décor. 'I can find things like a chandelier crystal, a pop can, or typewriter key, and remake it into something brand new,' Thompson said. Andi Tuchten runs Renovating Relics, a furniture warehouse in Wauconda. Tuchten participated in Saturday's market. Tuchten says she is always on the lookout for vintage furniture pieces to refurbish, refinish, or to rediscover by bringing them back to life as something new. 'The Market is a good opportunity for exposure, a chance to bring out rare finds, to share the handcraftsmanship and higher quality which lives in the bones of these nostalgic pieces,' Tuchten said. 'In this business, you have to listen for the story each piece has to tell, and the older it is, the more interesting the story is,' Tuchten said.

Big Budget Bill Triple Whammy: Energy Prices, Economy, And Environment
The Reconciliation Bill (also known as the 'One Big Beautiful Bill') was passed by the US House of Representatives by one vote. It proposes to eliminate tax credits and other funding for electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy. According to a Princeton University energy policy report, the House-passed version of the Bill, currently under consideration in the Senate, raises three red flags: for our household energy bills, our economy, and our environment. The House bill would raise US household and business energy expenditures by 25 billion USD annually in 2030 and over 50 billion USD in 2035. An average household will see a rise in energy costs of $100-$160 per year in 2030, and between $270 and $415 per year in 2035. This amounts to a 9% average rise in energy prices across the 2030 — but as much as 17% in TX, OK and PA. The energy price increases come at a time when more than a third of Americans are struggling to afford their power bill. The situation is worse for renters and those making under $50,000 per year, nearly one-half of whom struggle to pay their electric bills (compared to about a third in 2023), according to the electric utility industry group Energy Central. The increase in household energy expenditures is because the Reconciliation Bill would repeal most financial incentives for building renewable electricity sources like solar, wind, and battery storage, which now generate electricity cheaper than do fossil fuels. Older folks may remember when the Japanese beat out American auto manufacturers because the US companies refused to recognize the burgeoning demand for smaller vehicles. The House version of the Reconciliation Bill will help America repeat this mistake. While Chinese manufacturer BYD is moving ahead with inexpensive, high quality EVs, the Reconciliation Bill could reduce annual US sales of electric vehicles by roughly 40% in 2030 and end America's battery manufacturing boom. This despite a recent 15% growth in EV sales in the U.S., a near quadrupling in Brazil, sevenfold increase in Viet Nam, and 50% increase in sales in India during the first quarter of 2024. According to the International Energy Agency, the maturing EV market has shown robust growth, with 2024 sales to surpass those of 2023 by more than 20% and EVs to reach a share in total car sales of more than one-fifth. If the US is to remain competitive in a global market, it needs to expand its EV manufacturing capacity. The solar industry faces similar threats. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association, Texas, home to the fastest-growing solar market in the country, will lose 34,100 jobs by 2030. Florida, a state that has already installed enough solar capacity to power 2 million homes, stands to lose nearly 22,000 jobs. Were the incentives included under the Biden administration for renewables like solar and wind be maintained, we would reduce American dependence on foreign oil, and thus boost our national security. The result of proposed tax policy changes in the House-passed Reconciliation Bill would significantly slow US progress towards renewable energy and a healthier environment. According to Energy Innovation, a non-partisan think tank, repealing federal clean energy funding and tax credits would increase air pollution, particularly impacting those who live near power plants. Climate emissions would also rise, an outcome that impacts all of us regardless of where we live. Interestingly, the new field of attribution science makes it possible to determine the contribution of climate change to a single extreme weather event, like a particular heat wave or flood, and to calculate the proportional responsibility for that event of a specific source of emissions, like a fossil fuel company. This ability to follow disasters to their source is being used in an increasing number of lawsuits around the world. Getting back to the House version of the Reconciliation Bill, its impact will be to increase US greenhouse gas emissions by roughly a half billion metric tons per year by 2030 and more than 1 billion metric tons per year by 2035 – the equivalent of adding 219 million cars to the road. The House-passed bill would also kill the nascent clean hydrogen, CO2 management, and nuclear power sectors. Rob Orvis, senior director at Energy Innovation, captured the three clean energy-related impacts of the current Reconciliation Bill in comments to The Guardian: 'This bill is worse than what people envisioned – it pulls the rug out from facilities banking on [EV and clean energy] Government incentives for EV and solar power have been an unusual coming together of our household finance, economic, and environmental interests. They have contributed to economic growth and declining climate emissions. Let's try to keep it that way in the future.

American Integrity Insurance Group, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2025 Results
TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--American Integrity Insurance Group, Inc. (NYSE: AII), a Tampa-based property and casualty insurance holding company, successfully completed an initial public offering ('IPO') on May 9, 2025. Immediately prior to the IPO, all of the outstanding equity of American Integrity Insurance Group, LLC was contributed to American Integrity Insurance Group, Inc. The financial results for the first quarter reflected are those of American Integrity Insurance Group, LLC. References to 'American Integrity' or the 'Company' prior to the consummation of the IPO refer to American Integrity Insurance Group, LLC and after the consummation of the IPO, refer to American Integrity Insurance Group, Inc. American Integrity reported pre-tax income of $42.9 million and net income and adjusted net income 1 of $38.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. Highlights for the quarter include: Gross premiums written of $212.2 million, an increase of 43.9% compared to the first quarter of 2024; Net premiums earned of $65.4 million, an increase of 66.5% compared to the first quarter of 2024; Combined ratio of 42.9%; and Net investment income of $4.1 million, an increase of 26.3% compared to the first quarter of 2024. Management Commentary 'Having just completed a successful IPO in May, I am pleased to report that American Integrity had an outstanding first quarter in 2025. These results reflect more than just performance—they reflect disciplined, strategic execution, and a culture aligned around a mission that matters,' said American Integrity Chief Executive Officer, Robert Ritchie. 'We are grateful and humbled by the support that we have been shown by our new investors, and we look forward to discussing the quarterly results on our earnings call.' First Quarter 2025 Commentary Gross premiums written in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 43.9% to $212.2 million from $147.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. Gross premiums earned in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 33.9% to $210.2 million from $156.9 million in the first quarter of 2024. Net premiums earned in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 66.5% to $65.4 million versus the first quarter of 2024. The increase in gross premiums written, gross premiums earned, and net premiums earned in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024 was driven primarily by our strategic participation in the Citizens Property Insurance Corporation ('Citizens') take-out program, and an increase in premiums from new policies written through the Voluntary Market. Ceded premiums earned in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 23.0% to $144.8 million compared to $117.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 due to the increase in our gross premiums earned. Net investment income in the first quarter of 2025 increased 26.3% to $4.1 million compared to $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2024 driven by an increase in the size of our investment portfolio primarily driven by an increase in cash and cash equivalents and fixed-maturity securities. Losses and loss adjustment expenses in the first quarter of 2025 increased 2.4% to $20.9 million compared to $20.4 million in the first quarter of 2024 driven by increased gross premiums earned. Policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses in the first quarter of 2025 decreased 42% to $3.1 million compared to $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2024 driven by an increase in non-catastrophe ceded commissions and our participation in the Citizens take-out program of which such assumed policies do not carry any policy acquisition cost upon initial assumption of policies. The loss ratio was 30.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 49.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of 19 percentage points. The expense ratio was 12.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of 14 percentage points. The combined ratio was 42.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to 75.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease of 33 percentage points. The decreases in the combined ratio, loss ratio and the expense ratio for the first quarter of 2025 were due to our net premiums earned increasing more than our loss and loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition expenses and general and administrative expenses, in each case primarily due to our participation in the Citizens take-out program and the continued realization of operating leverage in the business. Members' equity increased 14.6% to $186.1 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to $162.4 million as of December 31, 2024. The gross proceeds to American Integrity from the IPO were $100 million, before deducting underwriting commissions and estimated offering expenses of approximately $18.5 million. There were 19,571,965 shares of common stock outstanding as of June 9, 2025. 1 Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see the discussion below under the heading 'Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures' for additional information concerning these and other non-GAAP financial measures.

Expand Policies in-force and in-force premiums Policies in-force represents the number of active insurance policies with coverage in effect as of the end of the period referenced. We utilize the change in the number of policies in force to assess the trajectories of our operations. In-force premium represents the annual premium for active insurance policies with coverage in effect as of the end of the period referenced. Policies in-force were 383,332 as of March 31, 2025, an increase of 42.9% compared to policies in-force of 268,326 as of March 31, 2024, and an increase of 7.6% compared to policies in-force of 356,108 as of December 31, 2024. The increase in our policies in-force was due to new policies written through the Voluntary Market and first quarter 2025 Citizens take-outs. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Adjusted net income (loss) Adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income excluding net realized gains or losses on investments and excludes expenses incurred in connection with our IPO, net of tax impact. We use adjusted net income as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives us and users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance excluding the impact of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities, which we do not view as core to the underlying trends in our business. Adjusted net income should not be viewed as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted net income differently. Adjusted net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 reconciles to net income as follows: Underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio Underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio is a non-GAAP measure. We calculate the underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio by subtracting current year net catastrophe losses and prior year net reserve development from total net losses and LAE and dividing that amount by the sum of total net premiums earned plus policy fees. We use the underlying loss and LAE ratio to allow us to analyze our loss trends before the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development. These two items can have a significant impact on our loss trends in a given period. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components both separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE ratio. The underlying loss and LAE ratio should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this press release and on the related teleconference call may be forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our outlook; our business strategy; writing new business and retaining existing policies; availability of reinsurance coverage; expectations on future growth; future Citizens take-out opportunities; anticipated future operating results and operating expenses, cash flows, capital resources and liquidity; reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses; competition; future regulatory, judicial and legislative changes; forecasts of future revenues and appropriately planning our expenses; and long- term; and our plans regarding our capital expenditures and investment portfolio as our business grows. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as 'anticipates,' 'believes,' 'contemplates,' 'continue,' 'could,' 'estimates,' 'expects,' 'intends,' 'may,' 'plans,' 'potential,' 'predicts,' 'projects,' 'should,' 'targets,' 'will,' 'would' or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance, and are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: the potential that we may face significant losses due to being a property and casualty insurer and our exposure to catastrophic events and severe weather conditions, which can be unpredictable; our loss reserves are estimates and may be inadequate to cover our actual liability for losses, and actual claims incurred have exceeded, and in the future may exceed, reserves established for claims; the dependence of our financial results on the regulatory, legal, economic and weather conditions in Florida due to the fact that we conduct substantially all of our business in Florida; changing climate conditions may increase the severity and frequency of catastrophic events and severe weather conditions; dependence upon the effectiveness of exclusions and other loss limitation methods in the insurance policies we assume or write; reliance upon third-party distribution partners, including independent insurance agents, homebuilder-affiliated agents and national insurance carriers; our ability to pursue Citizens' take-out opportunities; cyclical changes in the insurance industry; our ability to obtain reinsurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates, or at all; credit risk of our reinsurers who may suffer a downgrade; the inherent uncertainty of models and our reliance on such models as a tool to evaluate risk, and the dependence of our results upon our ability to accurately price the risks we underwrite; the possibility that our information technology systems may fail or be disrupted; our ability to expand our business and the possible need to acquire additional capital in the future to fund such expansion; the ability of our claims department, or the third-party claims adjusters whom we may engage, to effectively manage or remediate claims as well as unanticipated increases in the severity or frequency of claims; the possibility that actual renewals of our existing policies will not meet expectations; increased competition and market conditions, including changes in our financial stability and credit ratings; the extensive regulatory environment in which we operate that requires approval of rate increases, can mandate rate decreases, and that can dictate underwriting practices and mandate participation in loss sharing arrangements, and other potential further restrictive regulation we may face; assessments or competition for government entities may create short-term liabilities or affect our ability to underwrite more policies; and other risks identified in Part II, Item 1A 'Risk Factors' in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 9, 2025. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.
