The company intends to trade on the Nadsaq Global Market under the ticker “PRMI.” The underwriter for the offering is Friedman Billings Ramsey.

Patriot Risk Management is a workers’ compensation risk management company that provides both traditional and alternative market workers’ compensation products and services through two business components: insurance and insurance services. A majority of its business exists in Florida; however, it operates in 18 states and the District of Columbia. Patriot believes that its specialty product knowledge, low expense ratio, and hybrid business model drives strong returns and a competitive advantage in underserved markets.
