Thank you Wrendon and welcome everyone. Thank you for joining us today. As we do each quarter, before we get into our results, I would like to take a moment to provide a brief overview of our company. Oxbridge Re Holdings Limited was founded over five years ago with a mission to provide reinsurance solutions, primarily to property and casualty insurers in the Gulf Coast region of the United States. Through our licensed reinsurance subsidiary, Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited and our newly formed subsidiary Oxbridge RE NS, we write fully collateralized policies to cover property losses from specific catastrophes. And as some of you already know, because we write fully collateralized contracts, we are able to compete effectively with large carriers. We specialize in underwriting medium frequency, high-severity risk, where we believe sufficient data exists to effectively 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. Regarding our investment portfolio, we remain opportunistic and will deploy our capital when favorable return opportunities arise, which we believe will in turn drive our results through supplemental investment income. That being said, our focus and top priority remains on profitable underwriting. With that overview now behind us and before we going to our results for the third quarter, I will now turn it over to Wrendon to take us through our financial results for the period. Wrendon?

Thank you again Jay. I will now get into our financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. With respect to net premiums earned, for the third quarter 2018, net premiums decreased $18.6 million to $700,000 from $19.3 million in the third quarter of 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net premiums earned decreased $22.1 million to $1.3 million compared with $23.3 million for the first nine months of 2017. The decrease in both the three and nine months periods is primarily due to the previous acceleration of premium recognition due to full limit losses being incurred on all of our reinsurance contracts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as well as significantly lower capital deployed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, when compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. With respect to net investment income, for the third quarter 2018, net investment income totaled $100,000 plus $118,000 of change in fair value of equity securities which was offset by $61,000 of net realized investment losses. This compares with $128,000 of net investment income offset by $104,000 of net realized investment losses for the third quarter of 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net investment totaled $280,000 plus $22,000 of change in fair value of equity securities which was also by $237,000 of net realized investment losses. This compares with $341,000 of net investment income offset by $56,000 of net realized investment losses for the first nine months of 2017. With respect to total expenses, total expenses for the third quarter of 2018, including loss and loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition costs and underwriting expenses and general and admin expenses, were $358,000 compared with $42.3 million in the third…

Thank you, Wrendon. During the third quarter, we did see a major storm namely Hurricane Florence make landfall. Fortunately given our limited exposure to the Carolina’s and despite it’s estimated damage of $16 billion and insured losses of approximately $2 billion to $4.6 billion, we appear not to have been directly impacted by Hurricane Florence in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter Hurricane Michael the most powerful storm to hit Florida a record made landfall on October 10, 2018. Preliminary intimation in case of the storm has caused significant losses with an estimated range of $6 billion to $10 billion of insured losses. Given our Florida exposure, we will suffer a net loss to our capital and earnings of approximately $3.1 million or $0.54 per basic and diluted share after taking into consideration our quota-share agreement for our reinsurance sidecar. As such our book value per share will be reduced from $2.7 at the end of the third quarter to $2.3 per share. As mentioned on our last call, we organized a new subsidiary Oxbridge Re NS to function as a reinsurance sidecar. The new subsidiary is intended to increase the underwriting capacity of Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited. Oxbridge Re NS achieved successful licensing and officially commenced operations on June 1 of 2018. The premise of the newly formed subsidiary is to issue participating notes for third party investors, the proceeds of which will be used for collateralized some of our reinsurance obligations. In return Oxbridge Re receives a marginal management fees in exchange for handling the portfolio as well as a share in the profitability. We feel the opportunities represented by Oxbridge Re NS while being able to receive attractive returns in a loss-free year gives us the ability to diversify our revenue stream as well as risk. We believe overtime this could be accretive to shareholder value. Moving forward we continue to underwrite contracts opportunistically while diversifying revenue streams and maintain a conservative long-term outlook. As always, we remain very appreciative of our patient and loyal shareholders, who have supported us over the years and continue to support us now. We look forward to updating you on our progress in the upcoming months. We that, we are ready to open the call for question. Operator, please provide the appropriate instructions.

Thank you for joining us on today’s call. I especially want to thank our employees, business partners and investors for their continuing support. We look forward to updating you on our next call. Operator?

Before we conclude today's call, I would like to remind everyone that a recording of today's call will be available for replay via a link available in the Investors section of the company's website. Thank you for joining us today for our presentation. You may now disconnect.
