**FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") or in documents incorporated by reference that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements, expectations or beliefs regarding: (i) our core strategy and ability to fully execute our business plan; (ii) our growth, including by geographic expansion, new lines of business, additional policies and new products and services, competitive strengths, proprietary capabilities, processes and new technology, results of operations and liquidity; (iii) strategic initiatives and their impact on shareholder value; (iv) projections, predictions, expectations, estimates or forecasts as to our business, financial and operational results and future economic performance; (v) management's goals and objectives, including intentions to pursue certain business and the handling of certain claims; (vi) projections of revenue, earnings, capital structure, reserves, liquidity and other financial items; (vii) potential for rising costs of materials and labor; (viii) the supply of catastrophe reinsurance and its costs; (ix) assumptions underlying our critical accounting policies and estimates; (x) assumptions underlying statements regarding us and our business; (xi) the impact of legislation; (xii) claims and related expenses, and our reinsurers' obligations; (xiii) pending legal proceedings and their effect on our financial position; (xiv) effects of updated claims, policy, and billing systems; and (xv) other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ. A detailed discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included throughout this filing and particularly in Item 1A: "Risk Factors" set forth in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or publicly release any revision to any such forward-looking statement, except as may otherwise be required by law.

These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industry and market in which we operate, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "could," "would," "estimate," or "continue" or the negative variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. The risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the possibility that actual losses may exceed reserves, which are based on estimates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the concentration of our business in coastal states, which could be impacted by hurricane losses or other significant weather-related events such as northeastern winter storms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our exposure to catastrophic weather-related events, including hurricanes and wildfires;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our failure to adequately assess and price the risks we underwrite;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the fluctuation in our results of operations, including as a result of factors outside of our control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•increased costs of reinsurance, non-availability of reinsurance, non-collectability of reinsurance and our ability to obtain reinsurance on terms and at a cost acceptable to us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•inherent uncertainty of our models and our reliance on such models as a tool to evaluate risk;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•increased competition, competitive pressures, industry developments and market conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•continued and increased impact of abusive and unwarranted claims;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our inability to effectively manage our growth and integrate acquired companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our failure to execute our diversification strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our reliance on independent agents to write insurance policies for us on a voluntary basis and our ability to attract and retain agents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the failure of our claims department to effectively manage or remediate claims;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the failure of policy renewals to meet our expectations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our inability to maintain our financial stability rating;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our ability to access sufficient liquidity or obtain additional financing to fund our operations and expand our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our inability to generate investment income;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•effects of emerging claim and coverage issues relating to legal, judicial, environmental and social conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the failure of our risk mitigation strategies or loss limitation methods;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•lack of effectiveness of exclusions and loss limitation methods in the insurance policies we assume or write;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the regulation of our insurance operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•changes in regulations and our failure to meet increased regulatory requirements, including minimum capital and surplus requirements;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•climate change, health crisis, severe weather conditions and other catastrophe events;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•litigation or regulatory actions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•regulation limiting rate increases or that require us to participate in loss sharing or assessments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the terms of our indebtedness, including restrictions that limit our flexibility in operating our business, and our inability to comply with the financial and other covenants of our debt facilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our ability to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•certain characteristics of our common stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•failure of our information technology systems or those of our key service providers and unsuccessful development and implementation of new technologies; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our failure to attract and retain qualified employees and independent agents or our loss of key personnel.

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrences of anticipated events. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Consequently, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

The Company's unrealized losses on debt securities have not been recognized because the securities are of a high credit quality with investment grade ratings. After reviewing the Company's portfolio, if (i) the Company does not have the intent to sell, or (ii) it is more likely than not it will not be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, then the Company's intent is to hold the investment securities to recovery, or maturity if necessary to recover the decline in valuation as prices accrete to par. However, the Company's intent may change prior to maturity due to certain types of events, which include, but are not limited to, changes in the financial markets, the Company's analysis of an issuer's credit metrics and prospects, changes in tax laws or the regulatory environment, or as a result of significant unforeseen changes in liquidity needs. As such, the Company may, from time to time, sell invested assets subsequent to the balance sheet date that it did not intend to sell at the balance sheet date. Conversely, the Company may not sell invested assets that the Company asserted it intended to sell at the balance sheet date. Such changes in intent are due to unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date.

The Company evaluated available-for-sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions at March 31, 2026 and determined that the losses were driven by interest rate movements, changes in yield curve dynamics, market liquidity conditions, and broader fixed-income market volatility, none of which indicated credit deterioration; accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**Other Investments** 

*Non-Consolidated Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs")*

The Company makes passive investments in limited partnerships ("LPs"), which is accounted for using the equity method, with income reported in net realized and unrealized gains and losses. The Company also makes passive investments in a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT"), which are accounted for using the measurement alternative method, which is reported at cost less impairment (if any), plus or minus changes from observable price changes, as described in the table below.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and maximum loss exposure of the Company's non-consolidated VIEs at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | ***As of March 31, 2026*** | ***As of March 31, 2026*** | ***As of December 31, 2025*** | ***As of December 31, 2025*** |
|  | ***Carrying Value*** | ***Maximum Loss Exposure*** | ***Carrying Value*** | ***Maximum Loss Exposure*** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investments in non-consolidated VIEs - Equity method | $833 | $833 | $839 | $839 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Investments in non-consolidated VIEs - Measurement alternative | $426 | $426 | $446 | $446 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total non-consolidated VIEs** | $1259 | $1259 | $1285 | $1285 |

---

The Company's maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported as "other investments" in the Company's consolidated balance sheet. No agreements exist requiring the Company to provide additional funding to any of the non-consolidated VIEs in excess of the Company's initial investment.

**NOTE 3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS**

Fair value is determined based on the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The Company is required to use an established hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the inputs to the valuation and degree to which they are observable or not observable in the market. The three levels in the hierarchy are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•***Level 1*** – Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets/liabilities as of the reporting date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•***Level 2*** – Valuations based on observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities at the measurement date; quoted prices in the markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•***Level 3*** – Pricing inputs are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The highest priority is assigned to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, 2, and 3.

The following table presents information about the Company's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company assesses the levels for the investments at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer in accordance with the Company's accounting policy regarding the recognitions of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

The tables below present the balances of the Company's invested assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

***Financial Instruments excluded from the fair value hierarchy***

The carrying value of premium receivables, accounts payable, accrued expense, revolving loans and borrowings under the Company's senior secured credit facility approximate their fair value. The rate at which revolving loans and borrowings under the Company's senior secured credit facility bear interest resets periodically at market interest rates.

**Non-recurring fair value measurements**

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include intangible assets which are recognized at fair value during the period in which an acquisition is completed, from updated estimates and assumptions during the measurement period, or when they are considered to be impaired. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Certain of the Company's investments, in accordance with GAAP for the type of investment, are measured using methodologies other than fair value.

**NOTE 4. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME**

**NOTE 5. LEASES** 

The Company has entered into operating and financing leases primarily for real estate and vehicles. The Company will determine whether an arrangement is a lease at inception of the agreement. The operating leases have terms of one to ten years, and often include one or more options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term from two to ten years and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company considers these options in determining the lease term used in establishing the Company's right-of-use assets and lease obligations. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Because the rate implicit in each operating lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine present value of the lease payments. The Company used the implicit rates within the finance leases.

Components of the Company's lease costs were as follows (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company capitalized an additional $1.8 million of costs related to internal-use software development to incorporate the Company's commercial products into the system. The Company expects the development and full integration of the system to be completed by the end of 2026. Upon being placed into service, capitalized internally developed software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of seven years.

Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment was approximately $1.6 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a charge for the write-off of the remaining net book value of leasehold improvements related to an operating lease that was early terminated effective January 31, 2026. In connection with the early termination, the Company reduced its occupied square footage and entered into a new lease with the existing landlord. Fully depreciated leasehold improvements totaling $3.6 million were written off during the period. In addition, the Company recognized a gain of $721,839 related to the derecognition of the associated operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability, which is included in general and administrative expense in the Company's condensed statement of operations.

**NOTE 7. INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET**

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, intangible assets were $28.6 million and $30.2 million, respectively. The Company has determined the useful life of its intangible assets to range between 2.5-15 years. Intangible assets include $1.3 million relating to insurance licenses which is classified as an indefinite lived intangible and is subject to annual impairment testing.

The Company's intangible assets consist of brand, agent relationships, renewal rights, customer relations, trade names and insurance licenses.

Amortization expense of the Company's intangible assets for each of the respective three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $1.5 million. No impairment in the value of amortizing or non-amortizing intangible assets was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.

Estimated annual pretax amortization of intangible assets for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows (in thousands):

---

**NOTE 9. DEFERRED REINSURANCE CEDING COMMISSION**

The Company defers ceding commission earned in connection with its quota share reinsurance contracts, which is earned subject to the terms of the reinsurance agreements. Ceding commission on quota share agreements generally includes a provisional ceding rate, subject to sliding scale adjustments based on the loss experience of the reinsurers. Adjustments to estimated ceding commission income are reflected in current operations. The Company allocates 75% of ceding commission income to policy acquisition costs and 25% of ceding commission income to general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company allocated ceding commission income of $11.0 million and $15.6 million to policy acquisition costs, respectively, and $3.6 million and $3.8 million to general and administrative expense, respectively.

The table below depicts the activity regarding deferred reinsurance ceding commission during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | ***Three Months Ended March 31,*** | ***Three Months Ended March 31,*** |
|  | ***2026*** | ***2025*** |
|  | *(In thousands)* | *(In thousands)* |
| Beginning balance of deferred ceding commission income | $42213 | $42561 |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: ceding commission earned | (14555) | (19425) |
| Ending balance of deferred ceding commission income | $40909 | $53774 |

---

Deferred ceding commission income is recorded as an offset to deferred policy acquisition costs in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

**NOTE 10. DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS** 

The Company defers certain costs in connection with written policies, called deferred policy acquisition costs ("DPAC"), which are amortized over the effective period of the related insurance policies. As described in Note 9. Deferred Reinsurance Ceding Commission, the Company records provisional ceding commission that it receives in connection with the Company's reinsurance contracts as an offset to deferred policy acquisition costs. Therefore, deferred policy acquisition costs are presented net of deferred reinsurance ceding commission.

The Company anticipates that its DPAC will be fully recoverable in the near term. The table below depicts the activity regarding DPAC for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provision for income taxes | $12556 | $9536 |

---

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded income tax provision of $12.6 million and $9.5 million, respectively. The increase is due to the increase in pre-tax income and higher effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was 25.6% compared to 23.8% in the prior year quarter, with the variance driven primarily by estimated pre-tax income for full years 2026 and 2025 and the related impact on permanent tax differences.

We have recorded our deferred tax assets and liabilities using the statutory federal tax rate of 21%. We believe it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be recovered, given the carry back availability as well as the result of future operations, which we believe will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset.

The below table summarizes the significant components of the Company's net deferred tax assets:

On July 4, 2025, the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" ("OBBBA") was signed into law in the United States. The OBBBA makes permanent many of the tax provisions enacted in 2017 as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were set to expire at the end of 2025. In addition, the OBBBA makes changes to certain U.S. corporate tax provisions, including the immediate expensing of acquired business assets and a temporary suspension of the requirement to capitalize and amortize U.S. R&D expenditures. The tax effects of the enacted legislation are reflected in the 2025 financials and there was no material impact to the effective tax rate. The Company will continue to monitor the impact of the OBBBA on future financial statements.

The statute of limitations related to the Company's federal and state income tax returns remains open from the Company's filings for 2022 through 2025. There are currently no tax years under examination.

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective income tax rate.

**NOTE 12. REINSURANCE**

**Overview**

In order to limit the Company's potential exposure to individual risks and catastrophic events, the Company purchases significant reinsurance from third party reinsurers. Purchasing reinsurance is an important part of the Company's risk strategy, and premiums ceded to reinsurers is one of the Company's largest costs. The Company has strong relationships with reinsurers, which it attributes to its management's industry experience, disciplined underwriting, and claims management capabilities. For each of the twelve months beginning June 1, 2025 and 2024, the Company purchased catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance from the following sources: (i) the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund, a state-mandated catastrophe fund ("FHCF") which provides reinsurance for Florida personal residential and commercial residential admitted policies only, (ii) private reinsurers, all of which were rated "A-" or higher by A.M. Best Company, Inc. ("A.M. Best") or Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC ("S&P") or are fully collateralized, (iii) the Company's wholly-owned reinsurance subsidiary, Osprey Re Ltd. ("Osprey"), and (iv) Citrus Re Ltd ("Citrus Re"), a special purpose vehicle through which the Company sponsors catastrophe bonds. In addition to purchasing excess of loss catastrophe reinsurance, the Company also purchases quota share, property per risk and facultative reinsurance from reinsurers who are either rated "A-" or higher by A.M. Best or are fully collateralized. The Company's quota share program limits its exposure on catastrophe and non-catastrophe losses and provides ceding commission income. The Company's per risk programs limit its net exposure in the event of a severe non-hurricane loss impacting a single location or risk. The Company also utilizes facultative reinsurance to supplement its per risk reinsurance program where the Company's capacity needs dictate.

Purchasing a sufficient amount of reinsurance to cover catastrophic losses from single or multiple events or significant non-catastrophe losses is an important part of the Company's risk strategy. Reinsurance involves transferring, or "ceding", a portion of the risk exposure on policies the Company writes to another insurer, known as a reinsurer. To the extent that the Company's reinsurers are unable to meet the obligations they assume under the Company's reinsurance agreements, the Company remains liable for the entire insured loss.

The Company's state insurance regulators require the Company, like all insurance companies, to have a certain amount of capital and reinsurance coverage in order to cover losses and loss adjustment expenses upon the occurrence of a catastrophic event. The Company's reinsurance program provides reinsurance which complies with state regulator requirements, which are generally based on the probable maximum loss that it would incur from an individual catastrophic event estimated to occur once in every 100 years based on its portfolio of insured risks. The nature, severity and location of the event giving rise to such a probable maximum loss differs for each insurer depending on the insurer's portfolio of insured risks, including, among other things, the geographic concentration of insured value within such portfolio. As a result, a particular catastrophic event could be a one-in-100-year loss event for one insurance company while having a greater or lesser probability of occurrence for another insurance company. The Company also purchases reinsurance coverage to protect against the potential for multiple catastrophic events occurring in the same year. The Company shares portions of its reinsurance program coverage among its insurance company affiliates.

*For a detailed discussion of the Company's* ***2025-2026 Reinsurance Program*** *refer to Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" and "****Note 12. Reinsurance****" in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K.*

**Effect of Reinsurance**

The Company's reinsurance arrangements had the following effect on certain items in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026:

During the Company's March 31, 2026 quarterly assessment of loss reserves, the ultimate catastrophe losses for Hurricane Milton were adjusted downward based on loss development. This had a dampening effect on the ceded losses for the calendar quarter ended March 31, 2026. During the Company's March 31, 2025 quarterly assessment of loss reserves, the ultimate catastrophe losses for certain hurricane events were adjusted downward based upon loss development. The reduction in ultimate catastrophe losses reduced both the reserve for unpaid losses and the balance of reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid claims by the same amount, with no resultant change on a net basis because the losses were fully ceded under the Company's catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance coverage. This caused the ceded losses during the first quarter 2025 to be positive in the table above.

**NOTE 13. RESERVE FOR UNPAID LOSSES**

The Company determines the reserve for unpaid losses on an individual-case basis for all incidents reported. The liability also includes amounts which are commonly referred to as incurred but not reported, or "IBNR", claims as of the balance sheet date. The Company estimates its IBNR reserves by projecting its ultimate losses using industry accepted actuarial methods and then deducting actual loss payments and case reserves from the projected ultimate losses.

The table below summarizes the activity related to the Company's reserve for unpaid losses:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | ***Three Months Ended March 31,*** | ***Three Months Ended March 31,*** |

| Paid related to: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Current year | 32126 | 55527 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior years | 52022 | 71378 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total paid | 84148 | 126905 |
| Net balance, end of period | 317559 | 339537 |
| Plus: reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses | 226484 | 509391 |
| Balance, end of period | $544043 | $848928 |

---

The Company believes that the reserve for unpaid losses reasonably represents the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.

------

As of March 31, 2026, the Company reported $317.6 million in unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance which included $241.7 million attributable to IBNR net of reinsurance recoverable, or 76.0% of net reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. The favorable loss development is driven primarily from the positive impacts of legislative reform and improved claims handling.

Reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses includes expected reinsurance recoveries associated with reinsurance contracts the Company has in place. The amount may include recoveries from catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance, net quota share reinsurance, per risk reinsurance, and facultative reinsurance contracts.

In the fourth quarter of 2022 we re-estimated our ultimate losses for Hurricane Irma, which struck Florida in 2017. As a result of that re-estimation, the Company exhausted the private layers of reinsurance specific to Hurricane Irma but had a 45% participation in the FHCF limit remaining. As further described in Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, to these consolidated financial statements, the Company's 2017 reinsurance agreement with the FHCF required a commutation no later than 60 months after the end of the contract year. As part of this process, the Company and the FHCF terminated the 2017 reinsurance agreement and agreed on the amount that the FHCF would pay to the Company to settle all outstanding losses owed under the agreement related to losses from Hurricane Irma. As such, this commutation process resulted in a final determination of and payment for known, unknown or unreported claims relating to Hurricane Irma. Social inflation and the litigated claims environment in the State of Florida, which affected Hurricane Irma claims, could result in future adverse development of these claims, which creates uncertainty as to the ultimate cost to settle all of the remaining Hurricane Irma claims. Accordingly, should future re-estimations to Hurricane Irma losses increase the Company's expected loss reserves, all of the increase will be retained by the Company.

**NOTE 14. LONG-TERM DEBT**

**Convertible Senior Notes**

In August 2017 and September 2017, the Company issued in aggregate $136.8 million of 5.875% Convertible Senior Notes ("Convertible Notes") maturing on August 1, 2037, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears, on February 1, and August 1 of each year. In January 2022, the Company reacquired and retired $11.7 million of its outstanding Convertible Senior Notes. Payment was made in cash and the Convertible Notes were retired at the time of repurchase. In addition, the Company expensed $242,700 which was the proportionate amount of the unamortized issuance and debt discount costs associated with this repurchase.

As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $885,000 of the Convertible Notes outstanding, net of $21.1 million of Convertible Notes held by an insurance company subsidiary. For each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company made interest payments, net of affiliated Convertible Notes, of approximately $25,115, on the outstanding Convertible Notes.

**Senior Secured Credit Facility**

On July 22, 2025, the Company and its subsidiary guarantors entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") with lenders from time to time party thereto and Regions Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Credit Agreement dated as of December 14, 2018 (as amended to date, the "Prior Credit Agreement").

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for senior secured credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of up to $200.0 million, consisting of (a) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50.0 million (inclusive of a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit equal to the unused amount of the revolving credit facility and a sublimit for swingline loans equal to the lesser of $25 million and the unused amount of the revolving credit facility), with a maturity of July 2030 (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), (b) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75 million with a maturity of July 2030 (the "Term Loan Facility"), and (c) a $75 million committed delayed draw term loan that may be advanced to finance specified permitted acquisitions and investments, subject to satisfaction of conditions to borrowing and compliance with a specified consolidated leverage ratio, in up to five separate installments during the two year period following the effective date of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a maturity of July 2030 (the "Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility") (collectively, the "Credit Facilities").

------

Term Loan Facility. The principal amount of the term loan facility under the Prior Credit Agreement amortized in quarterly installments, which began with the close of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2019 and was amortizing in an amount equal to $2.4 million per quarter until its scheduled maturity date of July 28, 2026. The term loan facility under the Prior Credit Agreement was to mature on July 28, 2026 but was refinanced in full in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $73.1 million and $74.0 million in aggregate principal amount under the Term Loan Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, respectively. The principal amount of the Term Loan Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amortizes in quarterly installments beginning with the close of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025, in an amount equal to $937,500 per quarter, increasing to approximately $1.4 million commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2028 with the remaining balance payable at maturity in July 2030.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company made principal payments of $937,500, and interest payments of approximately $1.1 million, on the Term Loan Facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company made principal payments of approximately $2.4 million and interest payments of $1.4 million under the Prior Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows for borrowings of up to $50 million inclusive of a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit equal to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility and a sublimit for swingline loans equal to the lesser of $25 million and the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility. At July 22, 2025, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility under the Prior Credit Agreement was $10.0 million, which was repaid in connection with the Amendment and Restated Credit Agreement. During 2024, the Company secured letters of credit in aggregate of $24.4 million with a maturity date of March 16, 2025. The letters of credit were not drawn upon during the first quarter of 2025 and were cancelled effective on their maturity date of March 16, 2025. At March 31, 2026, there were $25.0 million outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility and there were no draws as such date. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company made interest payments in aggregate of approximately $275,770 relating to letters of credit and unused availability commitment fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company made interest payments in aggregate of approximately $181,428 on the Revolving Credit Facility and $158,562 relating to letters of credit and unused availability commitment fees under the Prior Credit Agreement.

At the Company's option, borrowings under the Credit Facilities bear interest at rates equal to either (1) a rate determined by reference to SOFR, plus an applicable margin or (2) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the "prime rate" of Regions Bank, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) the adjusted term SOFR in effect on such day for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin.

At March 31, 2026, the effective interest rate for the Term Loan Facility was 6.173%. The Company monitors the rates prior to the reset date which allows it to establish if the payment is monthly or quarterly payment based on the most beneficial rate used to calculate the interest payment.

**Mortgage Loan**

In October 2017, the Company and its subsidiary, Skye Lane Properties LLC, jointly obtained a commercial real estate mortgage loan in the amount of $12.7 million, bearing interest of 4.95% per annum and maturing on October 30, 2027. Pursuant to the terms of the mortgage loan, on October 30, 2022, the interest rate adjusted to an interest rate equal to the annualized interest rate of the United States 5-year Treasury Notes as reported by the Federal Reserve on a weekly average basis plus 3.10%, which resulted in an increase of the rate from 4.95% to 7.42% per annum, paid monthly. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company made principal and interest payments of $274,066 on the mortgage loan. On July 23, 2025, the Company paid the mortgage loan principal and accrued interest balance in full in the amount of $10.7 million as part of the sale of the Company's commercial real estate.

As of the date of this report, the Company was in compliance with the applicable terms of all its covenants and other requirements under the Credit Agreement, Convertible Notes, cash borrowings and other loans. The Company's ability to secure future debt financing depends, in part, on its ability to remain in such compliance. The covenants in the Credit Agreement may limit the Company's flexibility in connection with future financing transactions and in the allocation of capital in the future, including the Company's ability to pay dividends and make stock repurchases, and contribute capital to its insurance subsidiaries that are not parties to the Credit Agreement.

The covenants and other requirements under the revolving agreement represent the most restrictive provisions that we are subject to with respect to the Company's long-term debt.

The schedule of principal payments on long-term debt as of March 31, 2026 is as follows:

**NOTE 16. STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATIONS**

State laws and regulations, as well as national regulatory agency requirements, govern the operations of all insurers such as the Company's insurance subsidiaries. The various laws and regulations require that insurers maintain minimum amounts of statutory surplus and risk-based capital, restrict insurers' ability to pay dividends, restrict the allowable investment types and investment mixes, and subject the Company's insurers to assessments.

The Company's insurance subsidiaries Heritage Property & Casualty Insurance Company ("Heritage P&C)", Narragansett Bay Insurance Company ("NBIC"), Zephyr Insurance Company ("Zephyr"), and Pawtucket Insurance Company ("PIC") must maintain capital and surplus ratios or balances as determined by the regulatory authority of the states in which they are domiciled. Heritage P&C is required to maintain capital and surplus equal to the greater of $15.0 million or 10% of its respective liabilities. Zephyr is required to maintain a deposit of $750,000 in a federally insured financial institution. NBIC is required to maintain capital and surplus of $3.0 million. The combined statutory surplus for Heritage P&C, Zephyr, and NBIC was $359.4 million at March 31, 2026 and $392.5 million at December 31, 2025. State law also requires the Company's insurance subsidiaries to adhere to prescribed premium-to-capital surplus ratios, and risk-based capital requirements with which the Company's insurance subsidiaries are in compliance. At March 31, 2026, the Company's insurance subsidiaries met the financial and regulatory requirements of each of the states in which they conduct business.

**NOTE 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

The Company is involved in claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses during the period that it determines an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and it can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to its estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that the Company receives regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.

Heritage P&C the Florida insurance company affiliate is required to enter into a reinsurance contract with the FHCF for a portion of its catastrophe risk transfer each year. Since the Company's inception in 2012, certain catastrophic events have resulted in losses which pierced the FHCF layer and resulted in reimbursements from the FHCF. To date, losses from Hurricane Irma, which struck in 2017, Hurricane Ian, which struck in 2023, and Hurricane Milton, which struck in 2024, have triggered the Company's FHCF coverage.

The Company's 2017 reinsurance agreement with the FHCF is consistent among Florida insurance companies and required a commutation no later than 60 months after the end of the contract year, for which the commutation process began in June 2023. This commutation represents an agreement between Heritage and the FHCF to terminate the 2017 reinsurance agreement and agree on the conditions under which all obligations for both parties are discharged and therefore a final determination of and payment for any claims related to Hurricane Irma. The terms of the 2017 reinsurance agreement with the FHCF provide for the commutation process as well as the process to settle any disagreements as to the present value of outstanding losses that served as the basis for determining the amount payable by FHCF upon termination of the reinsurance agreement. During the third quarter of 2023, the commutation process was completed and a final payment by the FHCF was received by the Company. To the extent there is adverse development of these

------

claims, the final amount paid by the FHCF could vary from the Company's current or future estimation of losses to be recovered from the FHCF.

**NOTE 18. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** 

From time to time the Company has been party to various related party transactions involving certain of its officers, directors and significant stockholders, including as set forth below.

**NOTE 21. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION**

*Restricted Stock*

The Company adopted the Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc., 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan"), which became effective on June 7, 2023 upon approval by the Company's stockholders. The 2023 Plan authorized 2,125,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Plan for future grants. Upon effectiveness of the original 2023 Plan, no new awards may be granted under the prior Omnibus Incentive Plan, which will continue to govern the terms of awards previously made under such plan. In June 2025, the 2023 Plan was amended, effective on June 10, 2025 upon approval by the Company's stockholders, to increase the authorized shares by 1,800,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2023 Plan for future grants.

At March 31, 2026, there were 1,838,224 shares available for grant under the Plan. The Company recognizes compensation expense under ASC 718 for its stock-based payments based on the fair value of the awards.

On March 5, 2026, the Company awarded an aggregate of 49,369 shares of time-based restricted stock and 138,856 shares of performance-based restricted stock, each with a fair value at the time of grant of $26.98 per share under the 2023 Plan to certain employees. The time-based restricted stock vests annually in three equal installments commencing on December 15, 2026. The performance based restricted stock has a three-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2028 and will vest following the end of the performance period but no later than March 31, 2029.

On June 10, 2025, the date of the annual meeting of the Company's stockholders, the Company awarded to non-employee directors an aggregate of 15,300 shares of common stock with a fair value at the time of grant of $23.53 per share. The stock was fully vested on the date of issuance.

On April 15, 2025, the Company awarded 9,000 shares of time-based restricted stock, with a fair value at the time of grant of $17.30 per share under the 2023 Plan to certain employees. The time-based restricted stock vested on December 15, 2025.

The time-based restricted stock vests annually in three equal installments commencing on December 15, 2025. The performance based restricted stock has a three-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2027 and will vest following the end of the performance period but no later than March 31, 2028.

------

On February 26, 2024, the Company awarded an aggregate of 163,640 shares of time-based restricted stock and an aggregate of 253,918 shares of performance-based restricted stock, with a fair value at the time of grant of $7.02 per share to certain employees. The time-based restricted stock will vest annually in three equal installments commencing on December 15, 2024. The performance based restricted stock has a three-year performance period beginning on January 1, 2024 and ending on December 31, 2025 and will vest following the end of the performance period but no later than March 31, 2027.

In January 2025, the Company evaluated the restricted stock performance criteria and determined that based on the Company's results measured against the performance conditions under the awards, the maximum percentage would most likely be met by each of the recipients at the end of the vesting period for the 2024 awards, which were issued at target. Therefore, additional shares of restricted stock are expected to be earned upon vesting and beginning the first quarter of 2025, the Company began to recognize stock-based compensation on the additional 217,877 shares of performance-based restricted stock, as a result of the expected maximum achievement of the performance conditions under the awards.

For the performance-based restricted stock that are issued at target, the number of shares that will be earned at the end of the performance period is subject to increase or decrease based on the results of the performance condition. However, for those issued at the maximum, the number of shares that will be earned at the end of the performance period is subject to decrease based on the results of the performance condition under the awards.

The Plan authorizes the Company to grant stock options at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company's stock on the dates the options are granted. The Company has not granted any stock options since 2015 and all unexercised stock options have since been forfeited.

Restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2026 is as follows:

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

*You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and other information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (as amended, the "2025 Form 10-K"). Unless the context requires otherwise, as used in this Form 10-Q, the terms "we", "us", "our", "the Company", "our Company", and similar references refer to Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries.*

**Overview** 

We are a super-regional property and casualty insurance holding company that primarily provides personal and commercial residential insurance products across our multi-state footprint. We provide personal residential insurance in Alabama, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia and commercial residential insurance in Florida, Hawaii, New Jersey, and New York. We provide personal residential insurance in Florida, Hawaii, and South Carolina on both an admitted and non-admitted basis and in California on a non-admitted basis only. As a vertically integrated insurer, we control or manage substantially all aspects of risk management, underwriting, claims processing and adjusting, actuarial rate making and reserving, customer service, and distribution. Our financial strength ratings are important to us in establishing our competitive position and can impact our ability to write policies.

**<u>Recent Developments</u>**

**Economic and Market Factors**

We continue to monitor the effects of general changes in economic and market conditions on our business. As a result of general inflationary pressures, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, increased cost of materials and labor needed for repairs and to otherwise remediate claims throughout all states in which we conduct business. We mitigate the impact of inflation by implementation of rate increases and the use of inflation guard, which ensures appropriate replacement cost values for our business to reflect the inflationary impact on costs to repair properties. Use of inflation guard impacts both premium and total insured value ("TIV"). Rising reinsurance costs may be mitigated through exposure management as well as recouping the cost of reinsurance in future rate filings.

**Strategic Profitability Initiatives**

The Company has focused on three main strategic initiatives aimed at achieving consistent long-term quarterly earnings and driving shareholder value, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Generating underwriting profit through rate adequacy and more selective underwriting

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Allocating capital to products and geographies that maximize long-term returns

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Targeting a balanced and diversified portfolio

In continuing to implement these three strategic initiatives, we plan to target the following profitability initiatives in 2026:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Target geographies open for new business, while closely managing risk and exposure

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Continue persistent underwriting discipline and focus on rate adequacy while driving prudent top line growth

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Enhance data driven analytics using AI and other technology tools.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Continue the refinement of customer service and claims capabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Leverage infrastructure and capabilities to foster further growth, which includes our plan to enter the State of Texas on an excess and surplus lines basis

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Act as opportunities emerge which will continue our diversification and expansion over the next several years

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Expand our relationship with reinsurance partners to expand capacity, manage volatility while pursuing growth

**Trends**

*Inflation, Underwriting and Pricing*

We address reinsurance and loss cost trends in the property insurance sector through rates and inflation guard factors. Over the last several years, we have filed and been approved by state regulators for rate increases to achieve rate adequacy. Our rates are now adequate in over 90% of our territories, which are currently open for new business. We experienced intentional growth of our commercial residential business during 2025, with in-force premium in that line of business decreasing in the first quarter of 2026, driven primarily by competitive market conditions. To the extent that reinsurance and loss cost trends decline, our rates may be adjusted downward in the future. New rates, which are subject to approval by our regulators, become effective when a policy is written or renewed, and the premium is earned pro rata over the policy period of one year. As a result of this timing, it can take up to twenty-four months for the complete impact of a rate change to be fully earned and impact our financial statements.

We invest in data analytics, using software and experienced personnel, to continuously evaluate our underwriting criteria and manage exposure to catastrophe and other losses. Our policy retention has remained consistent in the upper 80's to low 90's. While we believe our rates are generally competitive with private market insurers operating in our space, we are focused on prudent growth in 2026 while managing exposure and ensuring rate adequacy throughout our book of business as well as providing high levels of customer service to our agents and policyholders.

We may experience rising inflation in the form of increased labor and material costs, which drive up claim costs throughout all states in which we conduct business. However, inflation is increasing at a lower rate than what we have experienced in the last several years. We adjust for changes in inflation by increasing or decreasing the inflation factor used in our pricing. Florida personal lines claim costs associated with litigated claims have decreased over the last several years due to favorable legislation aimed to curtail claims abuse and stabilize the Florida property insurance market. This has had the intended impact and has resulted in better margins and better rates for Florida policyholders. Accordingly, we have a positive outlook for Florida and the other rate adequate states.

We have a solid, consistent panel of reinsurance partners that provide reinsurance capacity at competitive pricing and sufficient levels to support our growth objectives. Additionally, we may leverage our captive reinsurer to assume risks from our insurance company affiliates.

**Overview of Financial Results**

In the following section, we discuss our financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The discussion of our financial condition and results of operations that follows provides information that will assist the reader in understanding our consolidated financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from quarter to quarter, including certain key performance indicators such as net combined ratio, ceded premium ratio, net expense ratio and net loss ratio, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•First quarter ended 2026 net income was $36.5 million or $1.19 per diluted share, compared to net income of $30.5 million or $0.99 per diluted share in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher investment income and a reduction in losses, partly offset by higher general and administrative expenses. The reduction in losses is attributable to a slightly lower net attritional loss ratio resulting from the positive impact of rate actions, underwriting actions, and targeted exposure management taken over the last several years, which continue to favorably impact results, as well as lower weather losses. Additionally, favorable prior year loss development increased from the prior year quarter. Policy acquisition costs were lower from the prior year quarter by 1.0%, driven mostly by lower costs associated with premium processing. General and administrative costs increased 4.4% from the prior year quarter driven primarily by human capital costs, with the net general and administrative expense ratio at 12.5% compared to 11.9% for the prior year quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Gross premiums written of $346.7 million were down 2.6% from $356.0 million in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a reduction in commercial residential business which was partly offset by higher gross premiums written for personal lines business. The Florida commercial residential market has become increasingly competitive and management is committed to maintaining adequate margins; as such Heritage will only write business that meets our underwriting and pricing standards. Management is also leveraging the expertise of our commercial residential team to expand this product to other states, the most recent of which is Hawaii. Overall, management believes we have achieved rate adequacy in over 90% of our territories and each of those territories were open for new business as of March 31, 2026. Our catastrophe excess of loss program this year will be completed with higher coverage than previously purchased but also at risk adjusted cost decreases. To the extent our cost of doing business decreases, our policyholders would benefit with reduced pricing, while we maintain adequate margins.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Gross premiums earned were $353.6 million, consistent with $353.8 million earned in the prior year quarter, as commercial residential business declined due to the market conditions described above, but were largely offset by higher gross premiums earned for the personal residential business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Net premiums earned were $199.7 million, consistent with $200.0 million earned in the prior year quarter, given a small reduction in gross premiums earned described above, with relatively flat ceded premiums for the quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Losses and loss adjustments expenses incurred of $91.6 million, a 7.9% improvement from $99.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease primarily stems from lower catastrophe losses and lower attritional losses, as well as higher favorable net loss development. Net weather and catastrophe losses for the current year quarter were $36.7 million, a decrease of $6.8 million from $43.5 million in the prior year quarter. Net losses in the current year quarter include non-hurricane catastrophe losses of $24.4 million from winter storms in the northeast, a decrease of $7.3 million compared to $31.8 million of non-hurricane catastrophe losses from the California wildfires in the prior year quarter. Other weather losses totaled $12.3 million, an increase of $600,000 from the prior year quarter amount of $11.7 million. Net favorable net loss development was $8.2 million in the current year quarter compared to net favorable development of $7.8 million in the prior year quarter. The favorable development is largely driven by the positive impacts of legislative changes and claims handling improvements which benefited prior accident year losses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Ceded premium ratio was 43.5%, the same as the prior year quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Net loss ratio was 45.9%, a 3.8 point improvement from 49.7% in the same quarter last year, driven by lower net losses and LAE as described above and relatively flat net premiums earned.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Net expense ratio was 35.2%, a 0.4 point increase from the prior year quarter amount of 34.8%, driven by primarily by an increase in human capital related expenses, partly offset by lower policy acquisition costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Net combined ratio of 81.0% improved 3.5 points from 84.5% in the prior year quarter, driven by a lower net loss ratio, partly offset by a higher net expense ratio as described above.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Net investment income increased to $9.9 million, a 15.1% increase from $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven mostly by a higher balance of invested assets. We continue to manage our investment portfolio, while maintaining a conservative portfolio with high quality investments and duration liability matched.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The effective tax rate was 25.6% compared to 23.8% in the prior year first quarter. We calculate the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The effective tax rate is 1.8 points higher than the prior year quarter. The effective tax rate can fluctuate throughout the year as income changes and estimates used in each quarterly tax provision are updated with additional information.

---

*\*NM - Not Meaningful*

*Total revenue*

Total revenue was $212.7 million, up 0.5% compared to $211.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase primarily stems from higher net investment income as described below.

*Gross premiums written*

Gross premiums written were $346.7 million, down 2.6% from $356.0 million in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a reduction in commercial residential business which was partly offset by higher gross premiums written for personal lines business. The Florida commercial residential business has become increasingly competitive, and our commitment to maintaining acceptable margins and our underwriting standards remains intact. However, to the extent that reinsurance and loss costs decrease, premiums charged to policyholders could decrease while maintaining adequate margins. Management believes we have achieved rate adequacy in over 90% of our territories and each of those territories were open for new business as of March 31, 2026.

Premiums-in-force were $1.427 billion as of first quarter 2026, a decrease of 0.4% compared to $1.432 billion as of first quarter 2025, driven mostly by a reduction of commercial residential in-force premium driven by competitive pressures as described above.

*Gross premiums earned*

Gross premiums earned of $353.6 million were down 0.1% from $353.8 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting a reduction in commercial residential business driven by competitive pressures as described above, which was mostly offset by higher gross premiums earned for the personal residential business.

*Ceded premiums* 

Ceded premiums were $153.9 million in first quarter 2026, relatively flat from $153.8 million in the prior year quarter.

------

*Net premiums earned*

Net premiums earned were $199.7 million in first quarter 2026, down 0.2% from $200.0 million in the prior year quarter driven by a small reduction in gross premiums earned and relatively flat ceded premiums as described above.

*Net investment income* 

Net investment income was $9.9 million a 15.1% increase from $8.6 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase is primarily due to higher cash and invested assets balances which are moving out on the yield curve, which was partly offset by lower yields on money market funds and our bank sweep accounts as a result of the current interest rate environment. We continue to manage our investment portfolio, while maintaining a conservative portfolio with high quality investments and duration liability matched.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Total operating expenses | 161840 | 169084 | (7244) | (4.3)% |

---

*Total expenses*

Total expenses were $161.8 million in first quarter 2026, an improvement of 4.3% compared to $169.1 million in the prior year quarter. As described below, a reduction of losses and LAE is the primary driver, coupled with a small decrease in policy acquisition costs, and partly offset by higher general and administrative expenses.

*Losses and loss adjustment expenses ("LAE")*

Losses and LAE incurred were $91.6 million in first quarter 2026, down 7.9% from $99.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease primarily stems from lower catastrophe losses and lower attritional losses, as well as higher favorable net loss development. Net weather and catastrophe losses for the current accident quarter were $36.7 million, a decrease from $43.5 million in the prior year quarter. Catastrophe losses were $24.4 million compared to $31.8 million in the prior year quarter. Other weather losses totaled $12.3 million, an increase of $600,000 from the prior year quarter amount of $11.7 million. Net favorable prior year loss development was $8.2 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to net favorable loss development of $7.8 million for the prior year quarter.

*Policy acquisition costs*

Policy acquisition costs were $45.3 million in first quarter 2026, down 1.0% from $45.8 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower policy and membership fees due to systems efficiencies, which was partly offset by higher agent commission and less ceding commission.

*General and administrative expenses*

General and administrative expenses were $24.9 million in first quarter 2026, up 4.4% from $23.9 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was driven largely by higher human capital related costs.

*Net income*

First quarter ended 2026 net income was $36.5 million or $1.19 per diluted share, compared to net income of $30.5 million or $0.99 per diluted share in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher investment income and a reduction in losses, partly offset by higher general and administrative expenses. The reduction in losses is attributable to a slightly lower attritional loss ratio resulting from the positive impact of rate actions, underwriting actions, and targeted exposure management taken over the last several years, which continue to favorably impact results, as well as lower weather losses. Additionally, favorable prior year loss development increased from the prior year quarter. Policy acquisition costs were relatively flat and general and administrative costs increased 4.4% driven primarily by human capital costs, with the net general and administrative expense ratio relatively flat compared to the prior year quarter

*Interest expense, net* 

Interest expense, net was $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2026, slightly lower than $2.4 million for the prior year quarter, driven by lower interest rates on a lower amount of debt outstanding.

*Income tax expense*

The income tax expense was $12.6 million in first quarter 2026 compared to $9.5 million in the prior year quarter, with the higher provision in the current quarter driven by higher pre-tax earnings compared to the prior year quarter. The effective tax rate for the current year quarter was 25.6% compared to 23.8% in the prior year quarter, an increase of 1.8 points. We calculate the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The effective tax rate can fluctuate throughout the year as estimates used in the quarterly tax provision are updated with additional information.

***<u>Financial Condition – March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025</u>***

<u>Cash and Cash Equivalents</u>

Cash and cash equivalents were $517.1 million as of March 31, 2026, a decrease of $42.2 million from $559.3 million as of December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by $10.0 million of cash used for the repurchase of 370,484 shares of common stock and the reallocation of $28.0 million of cash into bond investments.

<u>Fixed Maturity Securities</u> 

At March 31, 2026, fixed income securities increased by $38.1 million to $751.4 million from $713.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase primarily relates to the allocation of $28.0 million to purchase debt securities with a longer duration to lock in interest rates.

<u>Reinsurance Recoverable on Paid and Unpaid Claims</u>

At March 31, 2026, reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid claims decreased by $57.4 million to $261.2 million from $318.6 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by reinsurance reimbursements collected during the first quarter of 2026, primarily associated with claims payments for Hurricanes Ian and Milton as well as a reduction in ultimate losses for certain catastrophic events which reduced reinsurance recoverable on unpaid claims as claims developed favorably.

<u>Prepaid Reinsurance Premiums</u>

At March 31, 2026, prepaid reinsurance premium decreased by $112.4 million to $194.6 million from $307.0 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by payment of reinsurance deposit premiums during the first quarter of 2026.

<u>Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses</u> 

At March 31, 2026, unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses decreased by $35.4 million to $544.0 million from $579.5 million at December 31, 2025. This amount represents unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses excluding any reinsurance recoveries. The decrease was primarily due to payment of claims for Hurricanes Milton and Ian during first quarter 2025, as well as a reduction in ultimate losses for certain catastrophic events as claims developed favorably.

<u>Reinsurance Payable</u>

At March 31, 2026, reinsurance payable decreased by $159.3 million to $73.5 million from $232.8 million at December 31, 2025, driven by quarterly deposit premium payments made during the quarter.

<u>Total Shareholders' Equity</u> 

Total shareholders' equity increased $15.1 million to $520.4 million at March 31, 2026 from $505.3 million at December 31, 2025, primarily reflecting net income for the quarter, partially offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to higher unrealized losses, a reduction in additional paid-in capital related to surrendered restricted stock for tax withholdings, and common stock repurchases.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Our principal sources of liquidity include cash flows generated from operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, our marketable securities balances and borrowings available under our Credit Facilities. As of March 31, 2026, we had $517.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $753.7 million in investments, compared to $559.3 million and $715.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. As described above, the decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to the pay down on other debt, and strategic investment of funds into longer duration fixed income securities to lock in current interest rates.

We generally hold substantial cash balances to meet seasonal liquidity needs including amounts to pay quarterly reinsurance installments as well as meet the collateral requirements of Osprey Re, our captive reinsurance company, which is required to maintain a collateral trust account equal to the risk that it assumes from our insurance company affiliates.

We believe that our sources of liquidity are adequate to meet our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

------

We may increase capital expenditures consistent with our investment plans and anticipated business strategies. Cash and cash equivalents may not be sufficient to fund such expenditures. As such, in addition to the use of our existing Credit Facilities, we may need to utilize additional debt to secure funds for such purposes.

**Operating Activities**

Net cash provided by operating activities was $24.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $837,000 for the comparable period in 2025. The increase in cash provided by operating activities relates primarily to timing of cash flows associated with claim and reinsurance payments as well as reinsurance reimbursements during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

**Investing Activities**

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $44.3 million as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $3.5 million for the comparable period in 2025. The change in cash used in investing activities relates primarily to timing of investment maturities and re-investment of proceeds as well as availability of existing cash to invest in longer duration fixed income securities to lock in current interest rates.

**Financing Activities**

Net cash used in financing activities was $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $21.7 million for the comparable period in 2025. The change was primarily driven by the repurchase of common stock of $10.0 million and the surrender of restricted stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations of $8.9 million. By comparison, cash used in financing activities during the 2025 period primarily reflected repayments of the FHLB-ATL loan and term note agreement totaling $21.6 million.

***Credit Facilities*** 

On July 22, 2025, the Company and its subsidiary guarantors entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") with lenders from time to time party thereto and Regions Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amended and restated in its entirety the Credit Agreement dated as of December 14, 2018 (as amended to date, the "Prior Credit Agreement").

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for senior secured credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of up to $200.0 million, consisting of (1) a five-year senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75 million with a maturity of July 2030 (the "Term Loan Facility"), (2) a $75 million committed delayed draw term loan that may be advanced to finance specified permitted acquisitions and investments with a maturity of July 2030 (the "Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility") and (3) a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $50 million with a maturity of July 2030 (inclusive of a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit equal to the unused amount of the revolving credit facility and a sublimit for swingline loans equal to the lesser of $25 million and the unused amount of the revolving credit facility) (the "Revolving Credit Facility" and together with the Term Loan Facility and the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, the "Credit Facilities").

Term Loan Facility. The principal amount of the Term Loan Facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility amortizes in quarterly installments beginning with the close of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025, in an amount equal to $937,500 per quarter, payable quarterly, and increasing to approximately $1.4 million per quarter commencing with the quarter ending

------

September 30, 2028, with the remaining balance payable at maturity in July 2030. As of March 31, 2026, there was $73.1 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and as of December 31, 2025, there was $74.1 million in aggregate principal outstanding under the term loan facility under the Prior Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows for borrowings of up to $50 million inclusive of a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit equal to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility and a sublimit for swingline loans equal to the lesser of $25.0 million and the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility. Immediately prior to entering into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility under the Prior Credit Agreement was $10.0 million, which amount was repaid in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. During 2024, the Company secured letters of credit in aggregate of $24.4 million with a maturity date of March 16, 2025. There were no draws on the letters of credit during 2025, which were cancelled effective on their maturity date of March 16, 2025. On December 3, 2025, the Company secured letters of credit in aggregate of $32.0 million with a maturity date of March 31, 2026, with no draws as of December 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, the Company had $25.0 million in outstanding letters of credit issued from the Revolving Credit Facility and paid $198,823 of letter of credit issuance fees.

At our option, borrowings under the Credit Facilities, bear interest at rates equal to either (1) a rate determined by reference to SOFR, plus an applicable margin (described below) or (2) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the "prime rate" of Regions Bank, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and (c) the adjusted term SOFR in effect on such day for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin (described below).

The applicable margin for loans under the Credit Facilities varies from 2.50% per annum to 3.00% per annum (for SOFR loans) and 1.50% to 2.00% per annum (for base rate loans) based on our consolidated leverage ratio ranging from less than or equal to 1-to-1 to greater than 1.5-to-1. Interest payments with respect to the Credit Facilities are required either on a quarterly basis (for base rate loans) or at the end of each interest period (for SOFR loans) or, if the duration of the applicable interest period exceeds three months, then every three months. As of March 31, 2026, the borrowings under the Term Loan Facility were accruing interest at a rate of 6.173% per annum.

In addition to paying interest on outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to pay a quarterly commitment fee based on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, which is determined by our consolidated leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2026, the Company paid in commitment fees in aggregate of $76,946 as it relates to the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.

The Company may prepay the loans under the Credit Facilities, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions including minimum amounts and reimbursement of certain costs in the case of prepayments of SOFR loans. In addition, we are required to prepay the loan under the Term Loan Facility with the proceeds from certain financing transactions, involuntary dispositions or asset sales (subject, in the case of asset sales, to reinvestment rights).

All obligations under the Credit Facilities are or will be guaranteed by each existing and future direct and indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiary of the Company, other than all of the Company's current and future regulated insurance subsidiaries (collectively, the "Guarantors").

The Company and the Guarantors are party to a Pledge and Security Agreement, (as amended from time to time the "Security Agreement"), in favor of a collateral agent. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, amounts borrowed under the Credit Facilities are secured on a first priority basis by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the present and future assets of the Company and each Guarantor (subject to certain exceptions), including all of the capital stock of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, other than its regulated insurance subsidiaries.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains, among other things, covenants, representations and warranties and events of default customary for facilities of this type. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain, as of each fiscal quarter (1) a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00, (2) a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20 to 1.00 and (3) a minimum consolidated tangible net worth for the Company and its subsidiaries, which is required to be not less than the sum of 75% of consolidated tangible net worth measured as of the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025 plus 25% of positive consolidated net income (including its subsidiaries and regulated subsidiaries) plus the net cash proceeds of any equity transactions. Events of default include, among other events, (i) nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other

------

amounts; (ii) failure to perform or observe certain covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement; (iii) breach of any representation or warranty; (iv) cross-default to other indebtedness; (v) bankruptcy and insolvency defaults; (vi) monetary judgment defaults and material nonmonetary judgment defaults; (vii) customary ERISA defaults; (viii) a change of control of the Company; and (ix) failure to maintain specified catastrophe retentions in each of the Company's regulated insurance subsidiaries or observe specified reinsurer concentration limits.

***Convertible Notes***

On August 10, 2017, the Company and Heritage MGA, LLC (the "Notes Guarantor") entered into a purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with the initial purchaser party thereto (the "Initial Purchaser"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase, $136.8 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 5.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2037 (the "Convertible Notes") in a private placement transaction pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The net proceeds from the offering of the Convertible Notes, after deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $120.5 million. The offering of the Convertible Notes was completed on August 16, 2017.

The Company issued the Convertible Notes under an Indenture (the "Convertible Note Indenture"), dated August 16, 2017, by and among the Company, as issuer, the Notes Guarantor, as guarantor, and the trustee party thereto (the "Trustee").

The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears, on February 1 and August 1 of each year. The Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company that rank senior in right of payment to the Company's future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Notes; equal in right of payment to the Company's unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior to any of the Company's secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness or other liabilities incurred by the Company's subsidiaries other than the Notes Guarantor, which fully and unconditionally guarantee the Convertible Notes on a senior unsecured basis.

The Convertible Notes mature on August 1, 2037, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Holders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 1, 2037, under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2017, if the closing sale price of the Company's common stock, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which the conversion occurs, is more than 130% of the conversion price of the Convertible Notes in effect on each applicable trading day; (2) during the ten consecutive business-day period following any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price for the Convertible Notes for each such trading day was less than 98% of the closing sale price of the Company's common stock on such date multiplied by the then-current conversion rate; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the third business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events.

On or after February 1, 2037 until the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding August 1, 2037, holders may surrender their Convertible Notes for conversion at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Convertible Note Indenture) (but not, at the Company's election, a public acquirer change of control (as defined in the Convertible Note Indenture)), holders of the Convertible Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Convertible Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

At any time prior to February 1, 2037, the Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Convertible Notes, at the Company's option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes, which means that the Company is not required to redeem or retire the Convertible Notes periodically. Holders of the Convertible Notes are

------

able to cause the Company to repurchase their Convertible Notes for cash on any of August 1, 2022, August 1, 2027 and August 1, 2032, in each case at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the relevant repurchase date.

The Convertible Note Indenture contains customary terms and covenants and events of default. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Note Indenture) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes then outstanding by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all the Convertible Notes to be immediately due and payable. In the case of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization (as set forth in the Convertible Note Indenture) with respect to the Company, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Convertible Notes automatically become immediately due and payable.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $885,000 principal amount of outstanding Convertible Notes, net of $21.1 million of Convertible Notes held by an insurance company subsidiary.

***FHLB Loan Agreements***

In December 2018, a subsidiary of the Company received a 3.094% fixed interest rate cash loan of $19.2 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank Atlanta ("FHLB-ATL"). On September 29, 2023, the Company restructured the December 2018 agreement to extend the maturity date to March 28, 2025, with a 5.109% fixed interest rate payable quarterly commencing on December 28, 2023. Membership in the FHLB-ATL required an investment in FHLB-ATL's common stock which was purchased in December 2018 and valued at $1.4 million. In March 2025, the FHLB-ATL agreement was repaid and the securities were released from pledged collateral. As of March 31, 2026, the subsidiary continues to be a member in FHLB-ATL with its common stock valued at $570,000.

In December 2018, another subsidiary became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank Des Moines ("FHLB-DM"). Membership in the FHLB-DM required an investment in FHLB-DM's common stock which was purchased in December 2018 and valued at $133,200. In January 2024, the insurance subsidiary of the Company received a 4.23% fixed interest rate cash loan of $5.5 million from the FHLB-DM. Additionally, the transaction required the acquired FHLB-DM common stock and certain other investments to be pledged as collateral. As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of the collateralized securities was $3.6 million and the equity investment in FHLB-DM common stock was $324,700.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

When we prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we must make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts we report. Certain of these estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex. As a result of that subjectivity and complexity, and because we continuously evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on a variety of factors, actual results could materially differ from our estimates and assumptions if changes in one or more factors require us to make accounting adjustments. We have made no material changes or additions with regard to those policies and estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

The information set forth under Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements under the caption "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies" is incorporated herein by reference. We do not expect any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**

The duration of the financial instruments held in our portfolio that are subject to interest rate risk was 3.45 years and 3.0 years at March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 3.1 years at December 31, 2025. To the extent interest rates decrease during 2026, we anticipate the fair value of our fixed rate debt securities to be subject to increase. Credit risk results from uncertainty in a counterparty's ability to meet its obligations. Credit risk is managed by maintaining a high credit quality fixed maturity securities portfolio. As of March 31, 2026, the estimated weighted-average credit quality rating of the fixed maturity securities portfolio was A+, at fair value, consistent with the average rating at March 31, 2026.

------

We have not experienced a material impact when compared to the tabular presentations of our interest rate and market risk sensitive instruments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures.**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) that are designed to assure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting for the period ending March 31, 2026.

------

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings**

We are subject to routine legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. We believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

The Company documented its risk factors in Item 1A of Part I of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed on March 13, 2026. There have been no material changes to the Company's risk factors since the filing of that report.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company repurchased 370,484 shares of common stock under the 2026 Share Repurchase Plan. The average cost per share repurchased was $26.79. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $15.0 million of capacity remaining under the 2026 Share Repurchase Plan.

The Moura Amendment amended Mr. Moura's existing employment agreement to, beginning in 2026, (i) decrease his annual base salary from $650,000 to $585,000, (ii) increase the value of his annual cash incentive award from a threshold, target and maximum opportunity of 15%, 19% and 40%, respectively, of annual base salary to 25%, 30% and 60%, respectively, of annual base salary, (iii) increase the value of his annual time-based restricted stock award from 15% to 20% of his annual base salary and (iv) modify the value of his target and maximum opportunity under his annual performance-based restricted stock award to a target opportunity of 50% of annual base salary (from 20%) and a maximum opportunity of 150% of the target opportunity (from 240%).
