Executive Summary 1Q-26 Results Non-GAAP Core Income of $19.3m ($0.39) decreased -$1.3m (-7%) from $20.7m ($0.42) y/y due to modest reduction in gross earned premiums as we maintain underwriting discipline in a softening commercial catastrophe property environment. Net premiums earned declined -$2.7m (-3.9%) y/y to $65.6m due to a decrease in gross earned premium offset by lower reinsurance costs resulting in Total Revenue being nearly flat y/y. Our combined ratio of 66.0% increased 1 point from last year due to net rate decreases and our Non-GAAP underlying combined ratio (which excludes current catastrophe losses and PY development) was 68.3% which was nearly identical to last year despite weaker premiums due to exceptionally good loss experience driving a lower loss ratio. We experienced $1.7m of favorable prior year reserve development. Stockholders’ equity increased $14.1 million (+4.5%) from December 31, 2025, to $331.7m or $6.86 per share and $7.04 per share excluding unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income. Tangible book value per share rose 6.7% to $5.57 per share. Other Highlights The Florida commercial property market continued to soften during the quarter with average premiums down -16.6% in March Y/Y. ACES Specialty Insurance Company is still pending approval by Arizona, but AmCoastal assumed $6.2 million in E&S premiums in March as our quota share supporting AmRisc’s E&S commercial property portfolio commenced. We have effectively completed our 6.1.26 Core CAT reinsurance program renewal and achieved very attractive pricing while also broadening our reinsurer panel and improving overall per occurrence and aggregate protection.
