The unaudited net contribution of the acquisition and integration of Validus is provided for informational purposes only and is not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the results that may be achieved in the future. These results are not used as a part of management’s analysis of the financial performance of the Company’s business. These results primarily reflect items recorded directly by Validus from November 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, including: 1) net premiums earned and net underwriting income on the in-force portfolio acquired with the acquisition of Validus and previously retained on Validus entities’ balance sheets; 2) net premiums earned and net underwriting income for those contracts which renewed post-acquisition on one of the acquired Validus entities’ balance sheets; 3) net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains recorded directly by Validus; and 4) certain direct costs incurred directly by Validus. In addition, these results, where possible, were adjusted for transaction and integration related costs incurred by the Company. However, these results do not reflect on-going operating costs incurred by the Company in supporting Validus unless such costs were incurred directly by Validus. These results also do not give consideration to the impact of possible revenue enhancements, expense efficiencies, synergies or asset dispositions that may be achieved in the future. These results involve significant estimates and are not indicative of the future results of the acquired Validus entities which have been, and will continue to be impacted by potential changes in targeted business mix, investment management strategies, and synergies recognized from changes in the combined entity’s operating structure, as well as the impact of changes in other business and capital management strategies.
