AI GridWorks Expands Oxbridge into AI Infrastructure, Complementing Its Existing RWA Business
GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oxbridge Re Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: OXBR) (the "Company"), together with its subsidiaries, today reported its results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and provided an update on the continued growth of its real-world asset ("RWA") business and its strategic expansion into AI infrastructure through AI GridWorks, its newly formed subsidiary focused on developing, owning and operating AI data centers and related infrastructure.
During the quarter ending June 30, 2026 and subsequent period, Oxbridge continued to expand its strategy of originating, structuring and tokenizing real-world assets. SurancePlus was developed as a platform for tokenizing RWAs, with reinsurance serving as its initial asset class. Oxbridge began by tokenizing reinsurance originated through its own operations and has since expanded the platform to third-party reinsurance opportunities, including its work with HCI Group, Inc. and Fortex Reinsurance SPC, Ltd.
In parallel, Oxbridge has expanded its growth strategy into AI infrastructure through the launch of AI GridWorks, a dedicated platform focused on developing, owning and operating AI data centers and related infrastructure. Since launching the initiative, the Company has moved quickly to assemble an experienced infrastructure team and advanced its development pipeline.
Oxbridge believes AI GridWorks and SurancePlus represent two distinct but complementary growth platforms, providing multiple opportunities for long-term growth and shareholder value creation.
Second Quarter Results and Cash Position
As of June 30, 2026, Oxbridge reported $19.82 million in restricted cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $12.85 million from $6.98 million at December 31, 2025.
The Company believes this places Oxbridge in a strong position as it advances its AI infrastructure strategy and continues to grow its RWA business.
SurancePlus: Performance of Tokenized Reinsurance Offerings
For the 2025-2026 treaty year, the EtaCat Re and ZetaCat Re tokenized reinsurance offerings originally targeted annual returns of 20% and 42%, respectively. During the quarter, the Company announced that the offerings delivered actual annualized returns of 29.3% and 43.4%, respectively, exceeding their original targets.
These results continued the performance track record of Oxbridge's tokenized reinsurance strategy and preceded the launch of the Company's 2026-2027 offerings.
SurancePlus: 2026-2027 Tokenized Reinsurance Offerings
SurancePlus continues to expand its tokenized reinsurance platform through both Oxbridge-originated offerings and third-party reinsurance opportunities, demonstrating the platform's ability to support multiple sources of reinsurance assets.
During the quarter and six-month period ending June 30, 2026, SurancePlus completed five private placements of tokenized reinsurance securities on the Solana blockchain, raising $7.1 million in aggregate gross proceeds.
The five offerings included two offerings backed by reinsurance originated through Oxbridge - T20 and T42 - together with three third-party reinsurance offerings associated with HCI Group and Fortex Re.
Oxbridge-Originated Offerings
- T20 - Target Annual Return: 20%
- T42 - Target Annual Return: 42%
The T20 and T42 offerings represent the continuation of Oxbridge's established reinsurance origination and tokenization strategy, with the underlying reinsurance opportunities originated through Oxbridge and tokenized through the SurancePlus platform.
Based on performance to date, both offerings are currently on track with their targeted annual returns, subject to underwriting performance through the applicable treaty period.
Third-Party HCI Re 2026 Offerings
The three HCI-related offerings represent an important expansion of SurancePlus beyond Oxbridge-originated reinsurance into third-party reinsurance opportunities, demonstrating the ability of the SurancePlus platform to structure and tokenize real-world assets originated by third parties.
The HCI Re 2026 offerings target annual returns as follows, assuming no underwriting losses:
- HCI Re 2026 Series A - Target Annual Return: 224%
- HCI Re 2026 Series B - Target Annual Return: 122%
- HCI Re 2026 Series C - Target Annual Return: 17%
Since launching its reinsurance tokenization platform, SurancePlus has completed offerings across four consecutive treaty years, issuing approximately 1.27 million tokenized securities raising more than $16 million in cumulative gross proceeds across multiple blockchain platforms backing over $31 million of deployed capital in tokenized reinsurance contracts.
AI GridWorks: Building an AI Infrastructure Platform
Following the end of the quarter ending June 30, 2026, Oxbridge launched AI GridWorks, a dedicated AI infrastructure platform focused on developing, owning and operating AI data centers and related infrastructure.
AI GridWorks is intended to participate across multiple stages of the AI infrastructure development lifecycle, including identifying and securing strategic sites, developing powered land, and developing, owning and operating data center infrastructure. This approach provides Oxbridge with flexibility to create value through the development and potential disposition of infrastructure assets, as well as through the ownership and operation of completed data center facilities.
Oxbridge believes the continued growth of artificial intelligence and increasing demand for computing capacity are creating significant long-term opportunities for the development of the physical infrastructure required to support the AI economy.
To support the initiative, Oxbridge has assembled an experienced AI infrastructure team with deep subject-matter expertise across hyperscale data centers, power infrastructure, strategic real estate and site development. The team brings experience supporting approximately 2.9 GW of deployed hyperscale data center infrastructure and originating approximately 3 GW of powered land opportunities, together with extensive mission-critical infrastructure development experience.
Importantly, AI GridWorks is being developed as an AI infrastructure business and not simply as an extension of Oxbridge's tokenization activities. Its primary focus is the development, ownership and operation of the underlying physical infrastructure.
Over time, Oxbridge's established RWA capabilities may provide an additional opportunity to structure or tokenize interests in certain AI infrastructure assets and associated revenue streams developed through AI GridWorks.
Management believes this provides Oxbridge with a differentiated opportunity to combine physical infrastructure development with its existing expertise in real-world asset structuring and tokenization.
Two Complementary Growth Platforms
Management believes AI GridWorks and SurancePlus represent two complementary growth platforms for Oxbridge.
AI GridWorks is focused on developing, owning and operating physical infrastructure supporting the expanding AI economy, while SurancePlus provides Oxbridge with an established platform for originating, structuring and tokenizing real-world assets.
Together, the platforms provide Oxbridge with the opportunity to develop and own real-world assets while potentially leveraging its existing financial infrastructure to create additional ways to structure, finance and provide access to those assets over time.
Jay Madhu, Chairman and CEO of Oxbridge and SurancePlus, commented:
“Oxbridge is entering an important new phase of growth. We have demonstrated our ability to structure and tokenize real-world assets through SurancePlus, initially with reinsurance originated through our own operations and now with third-party reinsurance.
Our previous tokenized reinsurance offerings exceeded their targeted annual returns, and our current T20 and T42 offerings are tracking in line with their targeted returns, subject to underwriting performance through the applicable treaty period. At the same time, the expansion of SurancePlus into third-party reinsurance demonstrates the broader potential of the platform.
With AI GridWorks, we have expanded our growth strategy into AI infrastructure and are moving quickly to build the capabilities, team and development pipeline necessary to execute on this opportunity. Our focus is on developing and owning the physical infrastructure required to support the continued growth of artificial intelligence and creating value from the underlying assets themselves.
We believe AI GridWorks and SurancePlus provide Oxbridge with two complementary growth platforms. By combining infrastructure development with our established real-world asset capabilities, we believe we are positioning Oxbridge to participate in the growth of AI infrastructure while creating multiple avenues for long-term shareholder value.”

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $198,000, or $0.02 basic and diluted income per share compared to a net loss of $2.01 million or ($0.28) basic and diluted loss per share, for the six month ended June 30, 2025.

Premium Income
Net premiums earned for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 decreased to $368,000 from $582,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
