The company, which was founded in 1994, has license to do business in 22 states, including California, Pennsylvania and South Carolina.
According to the California Insurance Department, the insurer’s unaudited 2017 preliminary statutory income statement reflected a negative $27.6 million policyholder surplus as of Dec. 31, 2017, and its unaudited 2018 preliminary statutory income statement reported that its policyholder surplus was a negative $29 million as of Jan. 31, 2018. Additionally, the insurer neglected to file its required yearly statutory statement.

South Carolina Department of Insurance director Ray Farmer said the insurer has approximately 15,500 private passenger auto insurance policies, in a statement from the state’s insurance department.
Access policyholders will have until April 12 to find new coverage.
