Share Repurchase Program
On August 1, 2023, we announced the authorization of a share repurchase program that allowed for the repurchase of up to $100 million of EHI’s common stock, which was completed in the second quarter of 2024. On May 1, 2024, we announced the authorization of a share repurchase program that allowed for the repurchase of an additional $250 million of EHI’s common stock, which was completed in the second quarter of 2025. On April 30, 2025, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to an additional $350 million of EHI’s common stock. Under the programs, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market
transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, Enact has entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares as part of the program to maintain Genworth’s current ownership interest in Enact. We expect the timing and amount of any future share repurchases will be opportunistic and will depend on a variety of factors, including EHI’s share price, capital availability, business and market conditions, regulatory requirements, and debt covenant restrictions. Each program does not obligate EHI to acquire any amount of common stock, may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and does not have a specified expiration date.
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company purchased 2,382,633 shares at an average price of $35.45 per share, excluding commissions, compared to 1,601,419 shares at an average price of $30.43 per share, excluding commissions, during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2025, $292.9 million remained available under the share repurchase program that was announced on April 30, 2025. All treasury stock has been retired as of June 30, 2025.
