US Facilities Corp

Article Abstract:

US Facilities Corp was hampered by its Jun 1992 quarter earnings decline despite posting a 30% revenue hike. The stock sustained a 50% drop from its 52-weel high despite a 50% rise in medical stop-loss reinsurance premiums for the 1st half 1992. USF Reinsurance Co's improved involvement in a quota share reinsurance agreement with Continental also failed to encourage investors. VP Douglas Boskus acquired 17,573 shares at 8 1/2 last Jul 15, 1992, increasing his holding to 85,509. US Facilities has no dividends on its six million shares.
