UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to reflect the impact of the completed acquisitions by the subsidiaries of The Baldwin Insurance Group, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “Baldwin” or the “Company”). The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial information of (i) the Company and (ii) each of CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners (each as defined below). We are presenting the impact of the acquisition of CAC Group because it is deemed an individually significant acquisition. We are presenting the impact of the completed acquisitions of the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners, each in the aggregate, because they are considered significant in the aggregate and this presentation provides useful information for investors.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 gives effect to the following as if the acquisitions had occurred on December 31, 2025:
i.the acquisition of the business of Cobbs Allen Capital Holdings, LLC (“CAC Group”) effective January 1, 2026; and
ii.the acquisitions of Creisoft, Inc. (“Obie”) and Foley Insurance Agency, Inc., doing business as Capstone Group (“Capstone”), each of which was effective January 2, 2026 (collectively, the “Other 2026 Partners” and, together with CAC Group, “CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners”).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 does not give effect to the 2025 Partners as they are reflected in Baldwin’s historical balance sheet as of that date.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2025 gives effect to the following as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2025:
i. the acquisitions of Bermuda-based reinsurance underwriting platform MultiStrat Group (“MultiStrat”) effective April 1, 2025 and the various entities comprising the homebuilder distribution network of Hippo Holdings, Inc. (“Hippo’s Homebuilder Distribution Network”) effective July 1, 2025 (collectively, the “2025 Partners”); and
ii. the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared by management and is based on Baldwin’s historical financial statements and the assumptions and adjustments described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial information below. The presentation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared by Baldwin in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.
Our historical financial information for the year ended December 31, 2025 has been derived from Baldwin’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Baldwin’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 26, 2026.
The pro forma transactions and adjustments (collectively, the “Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) are based on available information necessary to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the aggregate impact of the relevant transactions on the historical financial information of Baldwin. The Transaction Accounting Adjustments consist of those necessary to account for the acquisitions of CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners. The Transaction Accounting Adjustments are described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
On January 2, 2026, in connection with the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 24, 2024, as amended, to provide for $600 million of incremental term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) with interest based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin of 250 basis points (the “January 2026 Refinancing”). The Company incurred aggregate debt issuance costs related to the January 2026 Refinancing of approximately $12.0 million. The funding of the Incremental Term Loans was essential for completion of the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners. The adjustments related to the January 2026 Refinancing, and certain other adjustments not directly related to the acquisitions on a discrete basis, are shown in a separate column as “Financing and Other Adjustments.” The Financing and Other Adjustments are described further in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was based on and should be read in conjunction with the following historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes:

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not intended to reflect the results of operations or the financial position of the Company that would have resulted had the acquisitions of CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners been effective during the period presented or the results that may be obtained by the Company in the future.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, and was based on the historical financial statements of Baldwin, CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners. The transactions were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 805 Business Combinations, with Baldwin as the acquiring entity. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. In addition, the acquisition method of accounting requires that the consideration transferred be measured at current market prices at the date of the acquisition. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded as of the acquisition date at their respective fair values and added to those of Baldwin. The financial statements and reported results of operations of Baldwin issued after completion of the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners reflect these values. Prior periods will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners.
The Transaction Accounting Adjustments are based on available information and on assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the aggregate impact of the relevant transactions on the historical financial information of Baldwin. These adjustments are discussed in greater detail in Note 5 below.
On January 2, 2026, the Company completed the January 2026 Refinancing, which provides for $600.0 million of Incremental Term Loans with interest based on SOFR plus an applicable margin of 250 basis points. The Company incurred aggregate debt issuance costs related to the January 2026 Refinancing of $12.0 million, of which $4.1 million was capitalized as deferred financing costs. The funding of the Incremental Term Loans was essential for completion of the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners and a portion of the proceeds from the Incremental Term Loans was used to pay down the outstanding borrowings on the revolving line of credit. As such, the adjustments related to the January 2026 Refinancing, including the paydown of the revolving line of credit and the related incremental interest expense, as well as the loss on extinguishment and modification of debt of $7.9 million, are shown in a separate column as Financing and Other Adjustments. The Financing and Other Adjustments are described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The pro forma adjustments reflecting the acquisitions of CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners under the acquisition method of accounting are based on estimates and assumptions and are included to the extent they reflect accounting for the transactions in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Certain amounts in the historical balance sheets and statements of income (loss) of CAC Group, the Other 2026 Partners and the 2025 Partners have been conformed to Baldwin’s presentation.
2. Accounting Policies
The integration of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners’ operations with those of Baldwin is ongoing. This integration includes a review by Baldwin of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners’ accounting policies. As a result of that review, Baldwin may identify differences between the accounting policies of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners and those of the Company. At this time, Baldwin is not aware of any differences that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements that have not been adjusted for in the pro forma financial information. Accounting policy differences may be identified after completion of the integration.
3. Reclassification Adjustments
Certain balances from CAC Group’s historical financial statements were reclassified to align its presentation with that of Baldwin. These reclassifications are based on management’s analysis and have no effect on separately reported net assets, equity or net loss of CAC Group.
A summary of the reclassification adjustments made to CAC Group’s audited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 to conform its presentation to that of Baldwin is set forth in the table below (in thousands).

D Reflects the elimination of certain assets that did not transfer to Baldwin in connection with the closing of the acquisitions of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners, and other adjustments made while recording their historical balances onto Baldwin’s balance sheet. Pro forma adjustments to assumed premiums, commissions and fees receivable, net of $1.9 million primarily related to the Other 2026 Partners and reflect miscellaneous adjustments to acquired receivable balances. Pro forma adjustments to prepaid expenses and other current assets of $5.3 million and other assets of $18.2 million, in each case related to CAC Group, reflect the elimination of forgiven colleague notes receivable, deferred commission expense and other miscellaneous items that were excluded from the transfer of assets to Baldwin.

K Reflects the pro forma adjustment to record deferred tax liabilities of $116.0 million and $26.2 million for CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners, respectively, categorized as Transaction Accounting Adjustments, consistent with amounts recognized by the Company in connection with the closing of these acquisitions. The recognition of deferred tax liabilities was associated with the fair value step-up of intangible assets in connection with the CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners’ acquisitions, which provided a source of future taxable income and supported the realizability of certain deferred tax assets, and resulted in Baldwin’s shift from a net deferred tax asset position to a net deferred tax liability position.
L Reflects the pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet to release $167.1 million of Baldwin’s deferred tax asset valuation allowance and record an increase in net deferred tax liabilities of $30.0 million (resulting in a net decrease to deferred tax liabilities of $137.2 million), a reduction to accumulated deficit of $144.5 million, and a reduction to additional paid-in capital of $7.3 million. Also reflects the pro forma adjustment to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of comprehensive income (loss) to recognize the related income tax benefit of $144.5 million. The release of Baldwin’s valuation allowance is not attributable to CAC Group or the Other 2026 Partners on a discrete basis and is therefore categorized as Financing and Other Adjustments.
M Following the Company’s assessment of the realizability of its deferred tax assets, and after concluding that the related tax benefits were more likely than not to be realized, the Company determined that the Tax Receivable Agreement liabilities associated with these basis increases generated to date were probable of being payable. Accordingly, the Company recorded Tax Receivable Agreement liabilities equal to 85% of the tax benefits expected to be realized from the redemptions.
Reflects the pro forma adjustments for the initial recognition of the Tax Receivable Agreement liabilities of $130.0 million, which is recognized as an increase to other operating expenses in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of comprehensive income (loss) and as an increase to accumulated deficit on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. The recognition of this liability reflects the Company’s overall assessment of deferred tax asset realizability and Tax Receivable Agreement obligations and is therefore categorized as Financing and Other Adjustments.

The elimination of intercompany assumed premiums, commissions and fees receivable, net and commissions payable was not material; accordingly, no such pro forma adjustment has been reflected on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025.
Q For the year ended December 31, 2025, reflects the pro forma adjustment to record share-based compensation expense incurred in connection with the issuance of stock awards to colleagues of CAC Group and the Other 2026 Partners as if the awards had occurred on January 1, 2025, and reflects the elimination of historical share-based compensation expense for CAC Group, as set forth in the table below.
