Under state insurance regulations, Radian Guaranty is required to maintain minimum surplus levels and, in certain states, a maximum ratio of net RIF relative to statutory capital, or Risk-to-capital. The most common such requirement is that a mortgage insurer’s Risk-to-capital may not exceed 25 to 1. In certain of the RBC States, a mortgage insurer must maintain a minimum policyholder position, which is calculated based on both risk and surplus levels. Radian Guaranty was in compliance with all applicable statutory capital requirements in each of the RBC States as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025. Radian Guaranty’s Risk-to-capital was 10.2:1 and 10.3:1 as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. For purposes of the Risk-to-capital requirements imposed by certain states, statutory capital is defined as the sum of statutory policyholders’ surplus plus statutory contingency reserves. Our other insurance subsidiaries were also in compliance with all statutory and counterparty capital requirements as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025.

In addition, to be eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs, mortgage insurers such as Radian Guaranty must meet the GSEs’ eligibility requirements, or PMIERs. At March 31, 2026, Radian Guaranty is an approved mortgage insurer under the PMIERs and is in compliance with the current PMIERs financial requirements.

State insurance regulations include various capital requirements and dividend restrictions based on our insurance subsidiaries’ statutory financial position and results of operations. While all proposed dividends and distributions to stockholders must be filed with the Pennsylvania Insurance Department before payment, if a Pennsylvania domiciled insurer has positive unassigned surplus, such insurer can generally pay dividends or other distributions out of unassigned surplus during any 12-month period in an aggregate amount less than or equal to the greater of: (i) 10% of the preceding year-end statutory policyholders’ surplus or (ii) the preceding year’s statutory net income, in each case without the prior approval of the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.

Radian Guaranty had positive unassigned surplus of $346 million as of December 31, 2025, providing it with the ability to pay ordinary dividends in the first quarter of 2026, subject to the restrictions under Pennsylvania’s insurance laws, as discussed above, and conditions required in connection with the Intercompany Note, as discussed below. As a result, Radian Guaranty paid an ordinary dividend of $140 million to Radian Group in the first quarter of 2026 and maintains the ability to pay additional ordinary dividends during the remainder of 2026. Subsequent to the payment of this dividend, as of March 31, 2026, Radian Guaranty had positive unassigned surplus of $357 million.

Radian Group paid a portion of the cash consideration for the Inigo acquisition with proceeds of a 10-year borrowing made by Radian Group from Radian Guaranty in December 2025, pursuant to a $600 million Intercompany Note that was approved by the Pennsylvania Insurance Department. Radian Guaranty is required to comply with certain conditions while this Intercompany Note is outstanding, including, most notably, obtaining prior approval from the Pennsylvania Insurance Department for all dividends paid by Radian Guaranty for a period of three years (which we may request to be reduced or the Pennsylvania Insurance Department may, in certain circumstances, extend for up to five years) and maintaining a minimum policyholders’ surplus of $500 million, among other conditions.

For additional information about our compliance with statutory and other regulations for our insurance businesses, including statutory capital requirements and dividend restrictions, see Note 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Specialty

The Company operates in the Lloyd’s market through its U.K. subsidiary corporate member, ICML which provides underwriting capacity to Lloyd’s Syndicate 1301. Syndicate 1301 is managed by IMAL. IMAL is authorized by the Prudential Regulation Authority (“PRA”) and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and PRA. Members of Lloyd’s are subject to Lloyd’s byelaws, which include restrictions on the payment of dividends and other distributions (including loans or cash advances) to shareholders, in certain circumstances requiring prior approval from Lloyd’s.

The underwriting capacity of a member of Lloyd’s must be supported by providing a deposit, referred to as FAL, which is held in trust for the benefit of policyholders. These funds are intended primarily to cover circumstances where the Lloyd’s syndicate assets prove insufficient to meet participating members’ underwriting liabilities. The level of FAL that Lloyd’s requires a member to maintain is determined by Lloyd’s, taking into account the Solvency UK capital framework and Lloyd’s own capital and resource requirements.

The determination of FAL is based on a number of factors including the nature and amount of risk to be underwritten by the member and the assessment of the reserving risk on business that has been underwritten. As of March 31, 2026, Inigo’s FAL capital requirement was met through cash, investments and a letter of credit facility. These assets are held in trust and subject to Lloyd’s requirements, and accordingly are restricted and not available for general corporate purposes, although they may be called to meet policyholder obligations or liquidity requirements at Lloyd’s.

The following table summarizes statutory capital and surplus and required capital and surplus for Syndicate 1301 for the dates indicated.

Required statutory capital and surplus reflects the most recent information reported by Lloyd’s which is provided on a quarterly lag.

The FAL capital that Inigo provides to support underwriting is not available for general purposes such as distributions for the payment of dividends or for working capital requirements. Corporate members may also be required to maintain funds under the control of Lloyd’s in excess of their FAL capital requirements and such funds also may not be available for distribution for the payment of dividends. Lloyd’s sets the corporate members’ required capital annually and reviews funds held compared to latest capital requirements on a quarterly basis. This process is supported by the application of a capital model developed in accordance with the Solvency UK regulatory framework.
