PART I — FINANCIAL INFORMATION

NOTE OF FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“Greenlight Capital Re,” “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended , and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical facts included in this report, including statements regarding estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements”. We intend these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in the United States (“U.S.”) federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “predict,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections, and various assumptions, many of which, are inherently uncertain and beyond management’s control. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:


			●			Our results of operations fluctuate from period to period and may not be indicative of our long-term prospects.
			●			The impact of general economic, capital and credit market conditions, including banking sector instability, financial market illiquidity and fluctuations in interest rates, equity securities’ prices and/or foreign currency exchange rates.
			●			A downgrade or withdrawal of our A.M. Best ratings would materially and adversely affect our ability to implement our business strategy.
			●			Any suspension or revocation of any of our licenses would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
			●			Our investment performance depends in part on the performance of Solasglas Investments, LP (“SILP”) and may suffer as a result of adverse financial market developments or other factors that impact SILP’s liquidity, which could materially and adversely affect our investment results, financial condition and results of operations.
			●			The carry values of our investments made under our Greenlight Re Innovations pillar, which focuses on developing a range of risk products via strategic partnerships and other methods to access fee income, a stream of underwriting business, and investment upside potential (“Innovations”), may differ significantly from those that would be used if we carried these investments at fair value.
			●			Our level of debt may have an adverse impact on our liquidity, restrict our current and future operations, particularly our ability to respond to business opportunities, and increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions.
			●			Greenlight Capital Re, Greenlight Reinsurance Ltd. (“Greenlight Re”), and/or Greenlight Reinsurance Ireland, Designated Activity Company (“GRIL”) may be subject to United States federal income taxation.
			●			The other matters set forth in the section entitled “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 8, 2023 (“2022 Form 10-K”).

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether due to new information, future events, or otherwise. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only to the dates they were made.

We intend to communicate certain events that we believe may have a material adverse impact on our operations or financial position, including property and casualty catastrophic events and material losses in our investment portfolio, in a timely manner through a public announcement. Other than as required by the Exchange Act, we do not intend to make public announcements regarding reinsurance or investment events that we do not believe, based on management’s estimates and current information, will have a material adverse impact on our operations or financial position.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

September 30, 2023

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“GLRE” and, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Company”) was incorporated as an exempted company under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands on July 13, 2004. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are described below:

•Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd. (“Greenlight Re”), domiciled in the Cayman Islands, is a Class D insurer license issued in accordance with the terms of The Insurance Act, 2010 (as amended) and underlying regulations thereto (the “Act”) and is subject to regulation by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority. Greenlight Re commenced underwriting in April 2006.

•Greenlight Reinsurance Ireland, Designated Activity Company (“GRIL”), domiciled in Ireland since 2010, is authorized as a non-life reinsurance undertaking in accordance with the provisions of the European Union (Insurance and Reinsurance) Regulations 2015. GRIL provides multi-line property and casualty reinsurance capacity to the European broker market and provides GLRE with an additional platform to serve clients located in Europe and North America.

• Greenlight Re Marketing (UK) Limited, domiciled in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) since 2020, is a U.K. company formed to expand GLRE’s presence in the Lloyd’s of London market (“Lloyd’s”).

•Greenlight Re Corporate Member Ltd., domiciled in the U.K. since 2014, is a corporate member that became a wholly-owned subsidiary of GLRE in 2023 and provides underwriting capacity for various Lloyd’s syndicates, including Syndicate 3456.

•Verdant Holding Company, Ltd., domiciled in the United States since 2008, is an investment holding company.

Additionally, through Greenlight Innovation Syndicate 3456 (“Syndicate 3456”), Greenlight Re provides a (re)insurance platform to its growing portfolio of insurtech partnerships. Domiciled in the U.K. since 2022, Syndicate 3456 is authorized to underwrite under the Lloyd’s syndicate-in-a-box model.

The ordinary shares of GLRE are listed on Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GLRE.”

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 8, 2023. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include GLRE and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations as at the end of and for the periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in its 2022 Form 10-K.

Return to table of contents

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The significant estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, loss and loss adjustment expense reserves, premiums written, earned, and receivable, variability underlying risk transfer assessments, allowances for credit losses, share-based compensation, valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets and investment impairments.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Restricted Cash Equivalents

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances to collateralize regulatory trusts and letters of credit issued to cedents (see Note 11). The following table reconciles the cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets to the total presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:


	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
	($ in thousands)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	41,302	$	38,238
Restricted cash and cash equivalents	622,624		668,310
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in the condensed consolidated statements of unaudited cash flows	$	663,926	$	706,548

Funds Held by Cedents

The caption “Reinsurance balances receivable” in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets includes financial assets held by cedents. At September 30, 2023, funds held by cedents were $422.4 million (December 31, 2022: $337.4 million). Such amounts include premiums withheld by Lloyd’s syndicates and funds contributed by the Company to Lloyd's as security for members’ underwriting activities. The Lloyd’s syndicates invest a portion of the premiums withheld in investment funds and fixed-maturity securities. The Company records its share of income (or expense) from these assets, in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Other income (expense)” as reported by the syndicates on a quarterly lag basis due to the timing of the availability of these quarterly financial reports.

Deposit Assets and Liabilities

At September 30, 2023, deposit assets and liabilities were $3.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively (December 31, 2022: $3.1 million and $10.7 million, respectively). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the interest income (expense) on deposit-accounted contracts were as follows:


	Three months ended September 30				Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Deposit interest income (expense), net	$	(278)	$	(6,148)	$	(645)	$	(6,373)

Foreign Exchange

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, $(2.0) million and $7.6 million (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: $(5.0) million and $(10.4) million), respectively, of foreign exchange gains (losses) were included in the Company’s net income in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption of “Other income (expense), net”.

3. INVESTMENT IN RELATED PARTY INVESTMENT FUND

The Company has entered into the Second Amended and Restated Exempted Limited Partnership Agreement (the “SILP LPA”) of Solasglas Investments, LP (“SILP”), with DME Advisors II, LLC (“DME II”), as General Partner, Greenlight Re, and GRIL, (together, the “GLRE Limited Partners”). SILP has entered into a SILP investment advisory agreement (“IAA”) with DME Advisors. LP (“DME Advisors”), pursuant to which DME Advisors is the investment manager for SILP. DME II and DME Advisors are related to the Company, and each is an affiliate of David Einhorn, Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Chairman”).

At September 30, 2023, the SILP LPA included the following proviso: “The Investment Portfolio of each Partner will not exceed the product of (a) such Partner’s surplus (Greenlight Re Surplus or GRIL Surplus, as the case may be) multiplied by (b) the Investment Cap (60%), and the General Partner will designate any portion of a Partner’s Investment Portfolio as Designated Securities to effectuate such limit.”

The Company has concluded that SILP qualifies as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) under U.S. GAAP. In assessing its interest in SILP, the Company noted the following:

•DME II serves as SILP’s general partner and has the power to appoint the investment manager. The Company does not have the power to appoint, change or replace the investment manager or the general partner except “for cause.” Neither of the GLRE Limited Partners can participate in the investment decisions of SILP as long as SILP adheres to the investment guidelines provided within the SILP LPA. For these reasons, the GLRE Limited Partners are not considered to have substantive participating rights or kick-out rights.

•DME II holds an interest in excess of 10% of SILP’s net assets, which the Company considers to represent an obligation to absorb losses and a right to receive benefits of SILP that are significant to SILP.

Return to table of contents

Consequently, the Company has concluded that DME II’s interests, not the Company’s, meet both the “power” and “benefits” criteria associated with VIE accounting guidance. Therefore DME II is SILP’s primary beneficiary. The Company presents its investment in SILP in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets in the caption “Investment in related party investment fund.”

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to SILP is limited to the net asset value of the GLRE Limited Partners’ investment in SILP. At September 30, 2023, the net asset value of the GLRE Limited Partners’ investment in SILP was $229.0 million (December 31, 2022: $178.2 million), representing 70.3% (December 31, 2022: 69.3%) of SILP’s total net assets. DME II held the remaining 29.7% (December 31, 2022: 30.7%) of SILP’s total net assets. The investment in SILP is recorded at the GLRE Limited Partners’ share of the net asset value of SILP as reported by SILP’s third-party administrator. The GLRE Limited Partners can redeem their assets from SILP for operational purposes by providing 3 business days’ notice to DME II. At September 30, 2023, the majority of SILP’s long investments were composed of cash and publicly traded equity securities, which could be readily liquidated to meet the GLRE Limited Partners’ redemption requests.

The Company’s share of the change in the net asset value of SILP for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $(1.9) million and $27.8 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: $8.5 million and $24.5 million, respectively), and shown in the caption “Income (loss) from investment in related party investment fund” in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received in an asset sale or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unaffiliated market participants. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on the extent to which the inputs are observable in the market. The categorization of financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is prioritized into three levels (with Level 3 being the lowest) defined as follows:

Return to table of contents


•			Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.
•			Level 2: Observable inputs other than prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated with observable market data.
•			Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. The term “unobservable inputs” includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held $53.7 million and $53.6 million, respectively, of private investments and unlisted equities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The Company classifies these assets as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The following table summarizes the periods between the most recent fair value measurement dates and September 30, 2023, for the private and unlisted equities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:


	Less than 6 months		6 to 12 months		Over 1 year		Total
	($ in thousands)
Fair values measured on a nonrecurring basis	$	18,552	$	602	$	34,567	$	53,721

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held $11.1 million and $8.9 million, respectively, of private investments and unlisted equities measured at cost.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Derivative financial instruments

The Company uses interest rate swaps in connection with its risk management activities to hedge 50% of the interest rate risk relating to the outstanding Term Loans (see Note 7). The interest rate swaps are carried at fair value and are determined using a market approach valuation technique based on significant observable market inputs from third-party pricing vendors. Accordingly, the interest rates swaps are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. These derivative instruments are not designated as accounting hedges under U.S. GAAP.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized unrealized gain for the above derivatives of $0.1 million, which are included in other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and in net change in unrealized gains and losses on investments and derivatives in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Investment in Related Party Investment Fund

The Company’s investment in the related party investment fund is measured at fair value using the net asset value practical expedient.Therefore, this investment is not classified within the fair value hierarchy. (See Note 3 for further details on the related party investment fund.)

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value

The carrying value of debt and convertible debt securities within “Other Investments” (see “Private investments and unlisted equity securities without readily determinable fair values” above) and certificates of deposit with original maturities of one year or less approximates their fair values. The Company classifies these assets as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Term Loans (see Note 7) represent financial instruments that the Company carries at amortized cost. At September 30, 2023, the carrying values of the Term Loans approximate their fair values.

Estimates for Significant Catastrophe Events

At September 30, 2023, the Company’s net reserves for losses and loss expenses include estimated amounts for several catastrophe and weather-related events (“CAT loss”). The magnitude and volume of losses arising from these events is inherently uncertain and, consequently, actual losses for these events may ultimately differ, potentially materially, from current estimates.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $29.5 million for current year CAT loss events, driven by the Turkey earthquake, Cyclone Gabrielle in New Zealand, the U.S. severe storms, Mexican state-owned oil platform fire, and satellite losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized CAT loss of $39.1 million driven by $13.6 million from the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and $19.5 million from hurricane Ian.

Prior Year Reserve Development

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the estimate of net losses incurred relating to prior accident years increased by $10.5 million, primarily due to the following:

•$31.3 million adverse loss development primarily due to reserve strengthening on legacy motor (predominantly 2021 underwriting year), homeowners (primarily deterioration relating to Winter Storm Elliott in December 2022), and workers’ compensation (2021 and prior underwriting years) contracts, coupled with a final claim settlement on a professional liability contract (2008 underwriting year).

Return to table of contents

•The adverse loss development was partially offset by $20.8 million favorable loss development from various prior years’ property catastrophe events and better than expected loss emergence for marine and energy (predominantly 2020 and 2022 underwriting years), group medical (2022 and prior underwriting years) and cyber contracts (predominantly 2021 underwriting year).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the estimate of net losses incurred relating to prior accident years increased by $1.6 million, primarily due to the following:

• $16.3 million reserve strengthening on motor and health business (2021-2021 underwriting years); a multi-line quota share program (2015, 2016-2019 underwriting years); marine and energy contracts (2020 underwriting year); and a cyber contract (2020 underwriting year).

•Offsetting the above adverse loss development, the Company had favorable loss experience driven mostly by mortgage business (2018 underwriting year), excess of loss workers’ compensation contract (2020 underwriting year) as well as favorable CAT loss development relating to small catastrophe events (mainly 2020 and 2021 underwriting years) and COVID-19 (2020 underwriting year) based on updated claims reporting received from cedents.

6. RETROCESSION

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s earned ceded premiums were $15.3 million and $35.2 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: $4.4 million and $8.4 million, respectively). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, loss and loss adjustment expenses recovered and changes in losses recoverable were $9.1 million and $24.8 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: $2.5 million and $2.5 million, respectively).

Retrocession contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to its cedents. Failure of retrocessionaires to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company. At September 30, 2023, the Company’s loss reserves recoverable consisted of (i) $20.2 million (December 31, 2022: $9.5 million) recoverable from unrated retrocessionaires, of which $14.7 million (December 31, 2022: $9.2 million) were secured by cash, letters of credit and collateral held in trust accounts for the benefit of the Company and (ii) $8.1 million (December 31, 2022: $3.8 million) recoverable from retrocessionaires rated A- or above by A.M. Best.

The Company regularly evaluates its net credit exposure to assess the ability of the retrocessionaires to honor their respective obligations. At September 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for expected credit losses was $0.1 million (December 31, 2022: $0.1 million).

Term Loans

On June 16, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a group of banks (the “Banks”), for which CIBC Bank USA is acting as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The Credit Agreement provides, subject to certain customary conditions, for a delayed draw term loan facility (the “Facility”), in an aggregate amount of $75.0 million. Outstanding loans (“Term Loans”) under the Facility will (i) amortize in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 5.0% of the outstanding loans and (ii) accrue interest at a rate equal to an adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.5% per annum. The Company posted $10.0 million of collateral as security for the Facility. The Facility matures on August 1, 2026.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company borrowed $75.0 million from the Facility, of which $63.4 million was used to repay all of the outstanding Convertible Senior Notes (see below), with the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes. On August 31, 2023, the Company hedged 50% of the floating interest rate on the Term Loans (see Note 4). The interest rate on the outstanding Terms Loans was 8.9% at September 30, 2023.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants relating to the Facility at September 30, 2023.

Senior Convertible Notes

On August 7, 2018, the Company issued $100.0 million of senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”), with a maturity date of August 1, 2023. The Convertible Notes bear interest at 4.0%, payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year beginning February 1, 2019. The conversion price was $17.19 per ordinary share of the Company.

As noted above, the Company fully repaid the remaining outstanding Convertible Notes on August 1, 2023, from the proceeds of the new Term Loans.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company repurchased and canceled $nil and $17.2 million of the Convertible Notes, respectively, resulting in realized gains of $nil and $0.3 million, respectively, which is included in “Other income (expense), net”, in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As noted above, the Company fully repaid the remaining outstanding Convertible Notes on August 1, 2023, from the proceeds of the new Term Loans.

Financing Costs

The Company incurred $0.9 million of issuance costs relating to the Credit Agreement, which are deferred and amortized through the maturity of the Facility. The remaining unamortized deferred finance costs are reported separately in the above table.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized interest expense of $1.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022: $1.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively) for the above total debt, which included the interest coupon, the amortization of issuance costs and the change in fair value of the interest rate swap (see Note 4).

8. SHARE CAPITAL

The following table is a summary of the Company’s ordinary shares issued and outstanding:

On July 25, 2023, at the Company’s Annual General Meeting the shareholders approved the Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the 2023 Incentive Plan. The 2023 Incentive Plan replaces the Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, or the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, and its subsequent amendments. As a result, the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan share reserve was transferred to the 2023 Incentive Plan and any forfeitures under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan will become available for grant under the 2023 Incentive Plan. Further, the shareholders approved to increase the maximum number of ordinary shares for which awards may be granted by 2 million ordinary shares. At September 30, 2023, 3,296,771 (December 31, 2022: 2,011,426) Ordinary shares remained available for future issuance under the Company’s 2023 Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the stock incentive plan.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted 535,329 (nine months ended September 30, 2022: 849,872) restricted shares to employees pursuant to the Company’s stock incentive plan. The restricted shares granted to employees in 2023 and 2022 include (i) restricted shares with both performance and service-based vesting conditions (“Performance RSs”) and (ii) restricted shares with only service-based vesting conditions (“Service RSs”). The Service RSs vest evenly each year on January 1, subject to the grantee’s continued service with the Company. If performance goals are achieved, the Performance RSs will cliff vest at the end of a three-year performance period within a range of 25% and 100% of the awarded Performance RSs, with a target of 50%. During the vesting period, the holder of the Service RSs and Performance RSs retains voting rights but is entitled to any dividends declared by the Company only upon vesting.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted 65,394 (nine months ended September 30, 2022: 107,763) restricted Ordinary shares to non-employees directors as part of their remuneration for services to the Company. These restricted shares contain similar restrictions to those issued to employees. They will vest on the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the date of the share issuance and (ii) the Company’s next annual general meeting, subject to the grantee’s

continued service with the Company. During the vesting period, non-employee directors holding these restricted shares retain voting rights and are entitled to any dividends declared by the Company only upon vesting.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the total fair value of restricted shares vested was $2.5 million (nine months ended September 30, 2022: $2.0 million).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted 113,932 (nine months ended September 30, 2022: 159,215) RSUs to employees pursuant to the Company’s stock incentive plan. The RSUs include (i) RSUs with both performance and service-based vesting conditions (“Performance RSUs”) and (ii) RSUs with only service-based vesting conditions (“Service RSUs”). The Service RSUs vest evenly each year on January 1, subject to the grantee’s continued service with the Company. If performance goals are achieved, the Performance RSUs will cliff vest at the end of a three-year performance period within a range of 25% and 100% of the awarded Performance RSUs, with a target of 50%. Prior to 2022, the RSUs issued to employees cliff vested three years after the date of issuance, subject to the grantee’s continued service with the Company.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued 77,695 ordinary shares for the vested RSUs.

Stock Compensation Expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the combined stock compensation expense (net of forfeitures) which was included in the caption “General and administrative expenses” in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations was $3.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Investment Advisory Agreement

Each of DME, DME II, and DME Advisors is an affiliate of the Chairman and, therefore, is a related party to the Company.

Return to table of contents

The Company has entered into the SILP LPA (as described in Note 3 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). DME II receives a performance allocation equal to (with capitalized terms having the meaning provided under the SILP LPA) (a) 10% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that is less than or equal to the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account, plus (b) 20% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that exceeds the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account. The Carryforward Account for Greenlight Re and GRIL includes the amount of investment losses to be recouped, including any loss generated on the assets invested in SILP, subject to adjustments for redemptions. The loss carry-forward provision in the SILP LPA allows DME II to earn a reduced performance allocation of 10% of profits in years subsequent to any year in which SILP has incurred a loss until all losses are recouped, and an additional amount equal to 150% of the loss is earned.

In accordance with the SILP LPA, DME Advisors constructs a levered investment portfolio as agreed by the Company (the “Investment Portfolio”, as defined in the SILP LPA). On September 1, 2018, SILP entered into the IAA with DME Advisors, which entitles DME Advisors to a monthly management fee equal to 0.125% (1.5% on an annual basis) of each limited partner’s Investment Portfolio. The IAA has an initial term ending on August 31, 2023, subject to an automatic extension for successive three-year terms.

For a detailed breakdown of management fees and performance compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (see Note 3).

Pursuant to the SILP LPA and the IAA, the Company has agreed to indemnify DME, DME II, and DME Advisors for any expense, loss, liability, or damage arising out of any claim asserted or threatened in connection with DME Advisors serving as the Company’s or SILP’s investment advisor. The Company will reimburse DME, DME II, and DME Advisors for reasonable costs and expenses of investigating and defending such claims, provided such claims were not caused due to gross negligence, breach of contract, or misrepresentation by DME, DME II, or DME Advisors. The Company incurred no indemnification amounts during the periods presented.

Green Brick Partners, Inc.

David Einhorn also serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Green Brick Partners, Inc. (“GRBK”), a publicly-traded company. At September 30, 2023, SILP, along with certain affiliates of DME Advisors, collectively owned 29.1% of the issued and outstanding common shares of GRBK. Under applicable securities laws, DME Advisors may sometimes be limited in its ability to trade GRBK shares held in SILP. At September 30, 2023, SILP held 2.7 million shares of GRBK.

Service Agreement

The Company has entered into a service agreement with DME Advisors, pursuant to which DME Advisors provides certain investor relations services to the Company for compensation of five thousand dollars per month (plus expenses). The agreement automatically renews annually until terminated by either the Company or DME Advisors for any reason with 30 days prior written notice to the other party.

Collateral Assets Investment Management Agreement

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company (and its subsidiaries) entered into a collateral assets investment management agreement (the “CMA”) with DME Advisors, pursuant to which DME Advisors manages certain assets of the Company that are not subject to the SILP LPA and are held by the Company to provide collateral required by the cedents in the form of trust accounts and letters of credit. In accordance with the CMA, DME Advisors receives no fees and is required to comply with the collateral investment guidelines. The CMA can be terminated by any of the parties upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the other parties.

Litigation

From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the Company may be involved in formal and informal dispute resolution procedures, which may include arbitration or litigation. The outcomes of these procedures determine the rights and obligations under the Company’s reinsurance contracts and other contractual agreements. In some disputes, the Company may seek to enforce its rights under an agreement or collect funds owed. In other matters, the Company may resist attempts by others to collect funds or enforce alleged rights. While the Company cannot predict the outcome of legal disputes with certainty, the Company does not believe that any existing dispute, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or operating results.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

References to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” or “the Company” refer to Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“GLRE”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries unless the context dictates otherwise. See Item 1, Note 1 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for list of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. References to our “ordinary shares” refer collectively to our Ordinary, Class A Ordinary, and Class B Ordinary shares.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, which appear in our 2022 Form 10-K.

The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and financial condition at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

OVERVIEW

Business Overview

We are a global specialty property and casualty (re)insurer headquartered in the Cayman Islands, with an underwriting and investment strategy that we believe differentiates us from most of our competitors. Our goal is to build long-term shareholder value by providing risk management solutions to the insurance, reinsurance, and other risk marketplaces. We focus on delivering risk solutions to clients and brokers who value our expertise, analytics, and customer service offerings.

We aim to complement our underwriting activities with a non-traditional investment approach designed to achieve higher rates of return over the long term than reinsurance companies that exclusively employ more traditional investment strategies. Our investment portfolio is managed according to a value-oriented philosophy, in which our investment advisor takes long positions in perceived undervalued securities and short positions in perceived overvalued securities.

Through Greenlight Re Innovations (“Innovations”), we support technology innovators in the (re)insurance market by providing investment capital, risk capacity, and access to a broad insurance network.

Because we seek to capitalize on favorable market conditions and opportunities, period-to-period comparisons of our underwriting results may not be meaningful. Also, our historical investment results are not necessarily indicative of future performance. Due to the nature of our reinsurance and investment strategies, our operating results will likely fluctuate from period to period.

The Company’s reinsurance subsidiaries hold an A.M. Best Financial Strength Rating of A- (Excellent) with a stable outlook, which was re-affirmed by A.M. Best on September 29, 2023.

Outlook and Trends

We operate in a business where we expect volatility in our underwriting result. In 2023, we have witnessed one of the costliest on record for U.S. severe storms, which contributed to our CAT losses during the first half of the year. In the third quarter we incurred additional CAT losses from a Mexican state-owned oil platform fire and two satellite loss events. Accordingly, our CAT incurred losses were $13.1 million and $29.5 million, net of reinsurance, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

While the global inflationary pressures have abated from their recent highs, we believe inflation continues to be a significant concern within the (re)insurance industry, as it can add uncertainty to the cost of claims, particularly for classes of business with long payout tails. As a result, it creates pricing challenges for new business and valuation challenges in claims reserves. We continue to manage these concerns and risks in multiple ways:

•Our underwriting strategy focuses on relatively short-tailed business, which is inherently less exposed to inflation than long-tailed lines. We estimate the payout duration of our existing reserves at less than three years.

•We incorporate inflation assumptions in all our pricing and reassess these assumptions frequently.

•We are minimizing our exposure to classes that are experiencing severe supply-chain-driven inflation.

Return to table of contents

The rising interest rate environment has had a mixed impact on our financial results. Our term loan is partially exposed to fluctuations in the SOFR interest rate. While in 2022 we experienced losses driven by fixed-income securities held by the Lloyd’s syndicates in which we participate, we have seen a reversal of this in 2023 as maturing fixed-income securities are reinvested at higher yields. In addition, the higher interest rates have improved the yield on our restricted cash and cash equivalents. To the extent interest rates continue to increase, we expect to see these trends continue. The SILP portfolio is positioned to also benefit from an inflationary environment.

The combination of the recent significant loss events, continued social inflation, and rising interest rates led to a significant reduction in the amount of reinsurance capital available for deployment, which in turn led to attractive market conditions for 2023. We expect these conditions to continue into the 2024 January renewals. We are also encouraged by the growth of our innovations portfolio and continue to find innovative ways to foster our insurtech partnerships as part of our long term strategy.

Key Financial Measures and Non-GAAP Measures

Management uses certain key financial measures, some of which are not prescribed under U.S. GAAP rules and standards (“non-GAAP financial measures”), to evaluate our financial performance, financial position, and the change in shareholder value. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure, as defined in SEC Regulation G, is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented under U.S. GAAP. We believe that these measures, which may be calculated or defined differently by other companies, provide consistent and comparable metrics of our business performance to help shareholders understand performance trends and facilitate a more thorough understanding of the Company’s business. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for those determined under U.S. GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this report are:

•Basic book value per share and fully diluted book value per share; and

•Net underwriting income (loss)

These non-GAAP financial measures are described below.

Basic Book Value Per Share and Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share

We believe that long-term growth in fully diluted book value per share is the most relevant measure of our financial performance because it provides management and investors a yardstick to monitor the shareholder value generated. Fully diluted book value per share may also help our investors, shareholders, and other interested parties form a basis of comparison with other companies within the property and casualty reinsurance industry. Basic book value per share and fully diluted book value per share should not be viewed as substitutes for the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

We calculate basic book value per share as (a) ending shareholders' equity, divided by (b) aggregate of ordinary shares issued and outstanding, including all unvested service-based restricted shares, and the earned portion of performance-based restricted shares granted after December 31, 2021. We exclude shares potentially issuable in connection with convertible notes if the conversion price exceeds the share price. We repaid all outstanding convertible notes on August 1, 2023 without issuing any shares.

Fully diluted book value per share represents basic book value per share combined with any dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options, unvested service-based RSUs, and the earned portion of unvested performance-based RSUs granted. Fully diluted book value per share also includes the dilutive effect, if any, of ordinary shares expected to be issued upon settlement of the convertible notes.

Our primary financial goal is to increase fully diluted book value per share over the long term. We use fully diluted book value per share as a financial measure in our annual incentive compensation.

Restricted shares with performance-based vesting conditions granted after December 31, 2021, are included in the “basic” and “fully diluted” denominators to the extent that the Company has recognized the corresponding share-based compensation expense. At September 30, 2023, the aggregate number of unearned restricted shares with performance conditions not included in the “basic” and “fully diluted” denominators was 947,492 (June 30, 2023: 982,645, March 31, 2023: 1,014,317, December 31, 2022: 709,638, September 30, 2022: 732,310).

Net Underwriting Income (Loss)

One way that we evaluate the Company’s underwriting performance is by measuring net underwriting income (loss). We do not use premiums written as a measure of performance. Net underwriting income (loss) is a performance measure used by management to evaluate the fundamentals underlying the Company’s underwriting operations. We believe that the use of net underwriting income (loss) enables investors and other users of the Company’s financial information to analyze our performance in a manner similar to how management analyzes performance. Management also believes this measure follows industry practice and allows the users of financial information to compare the Company’s performance with that of our industry peer group.

Net underwriting income (loss) is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes items used to calculate net income before taxes under U.S. GAAP. We calculate net underwriting income (loss) as net premiums earned less net loss and loss adjustment expenses, acquisition costs, underwriting expenses, and deposit interest expense. The measure excludes, on a recurring basis: (1) investment income (loss); (2) other income (expense) not related to underwriting, including foreign

Return to table of contents

exchange gains or losses, and Lloyd’s interest income and expense; (3) corporate general and administrative expenses; and (4) interest expense. We exclude total investment income or loss, foreign exchange gains or losses, and Lloyd’s interest income or expense as we believe these items are influenced by market conditions and other factors unrelated to underwriting decisions. Additionally, we exclude corporate and interest expenses because these costs are generally fixed and not incremental to or directly related to our underwriting operations. We believe all of these amounts are largely independent of our underwriting process, and including them could hinder the analysis of trends in our underwriting operations. Net underwriting income (loss) should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income before income taxes.

The reconciliations of net underwriting income (loss) to income (loss) before income taxes (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) on a consolidated basis are shown below:

Overview

Three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the fully diluted book value per share increased by $0.37 per share, or 2.3%, to $16.58 per share from $16.21 per share at June 30, 2023. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, basic book value per share increased by $0.38 per share, or 2.3%, to $16.67 per share from $16.29 per share at June 30, 2023.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our net income was $13.5 million, compared to net loss of $18.5 million reported for the equivalent 2022 period.

The developments that most significantly affected our financial performance during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the equivalent 2022 period, are summarized below:

•Underwriting: Our underwriting income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $14.4 million, which included CAT losses of $13.1 million during the third quarter of 2023, driven by the Mexican state-owned oil platform fire and two satellite loss events. We reported favorable loss development of $3.3 million driven primarily by property, marine and energy business, partially offset by adverse development relating to motor, workers’ compensation, and professional liability business. By comparison, the equivalent period in 2022 reported an underwriting loss of $18.9 million, which included $25.9 million of CAT losses, primarily related to $19.5 million from Hurricane Ian and $3.2 million from Typhoons Nanmadol and Hinnamnor. Additionally, the underwriting loss in the comparable period in 2022 included $6.1 million of interest expense relating to deposit-accounted contracts that did not meet the risk transfer condition for reinsurance accounting under U.S. GAAP.

Our combined ratio was 91.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 115.4% during the equivalent 2022 period. The significant improvement in our combined ratio was driven mainly by 18.1 points improvement in loss ratio mainly due to lower CAT events, coupled with 4.7 points decrease in underwriting expense ratio driven by lower interest expense relating to deposit-accounted contracts.

•Investments: Our total investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $5.1 million, compared to total investment income of $11.6 million reported for the same period in 2022. Our investment in SILP reported a loss of $1.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a gain of $8.5 million during the equivalent period in 2022. Other investment income from our Innovation investments and interest earned from our restricted cash and cash equivalents and Funds at Lloyd’s (“FAL”) cash positions totaled $7.0 million and $3.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in other investment income was driven primarily by increase in short-term yields as a result of the U.S. central bank hiking its benchmark borrowing rate from 5.00% to 5.25% during the quarter.

•Other (income) expense: For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred other expense of $1.3 million, compared to $6.8 million for the same quarter in 2022. The favorable change was driven primarily by:

◦$3.0 million of lower foreign exchange losses, due mainly to a lesser weakening of the U.S. dollar against the pound sterling; and

◦our share of Lloyd’s syndicates’ investment income on FAL business, which is generally conducted on a funds withheld basis. The Lloyd’s syndicates invest a portion of these funds in fixed-maturity securities and investment funds. We record our share of the investment income and mark-to-market adjustments of these fixed maturity securities when the syndicates report them to us, generally one quarter in arrears.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, fully diluted book value per share increased by $1.99, or 13.6%, to $16.58 per share from $14.59 per share at December 31, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, basic book value per share increased by $2.01, or 13.7%, to $16.67 per share from $14.66 per share at December 31, 2022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our net income was $69.2 million, compared to net loss of $9.4 million reported for the equivalent 2022 period.

The developments that most significantly affected our financial performance during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the equivalent 2022 period, are summarized below:

•Underwriting: Our underwriting income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $20.2 million, which was negatively impacted by $29.5 million of total CAT losses in 2023 including the Turkey earthquake, Cyclone Gabrielle in New Zealand, the U.S. severe storms, the Mexican state-owned oil platform fire, and the two satellite losses. Additionally, we incurred $10.5 million of adverse loss development on prior years’ contracts. By comparison, our underwriting loss for the equivalent period in 2022 was $17.2 million, which was negatively impacted by $42.3 million of CAT losses including $13.6 million related to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and $25.4 million related to Hurricane Ian, Typhoon Nanmadol and Hinnamnor, and Tennessee wildfires. Additionally, we incurred $1.6 million of adverse loss development on prior year’s contracts during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Our combined ratio was 95.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 104.8% for the same period in 2022. This favorable change was primarily due to our loss ratio improving by 6.8 points due to lower CAT losses, net of 2.0 points increase from prior year adverse loss development compared to 2022. Additionally, our underwriting expense ratio improved by 1.3 points for the same reason noted above for the quarter.

•Investments: Our total investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $52.5 million, compared to $36.5 million earned during the equivalent 2022 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our investment in SILP reported a gain of $27.8 million, compared to a gain of $24.5 million during the equivalent period in 2022. Other investment income totaled $24.7 million and $12.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The increase in other investment income was driven primarily by increase in short-term yields as previously noted.

•Other income (expense): For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, other income was $13.4 million compared to other expense of $13.4 million. The favorable change was driven primarily by the same reasons explained above for the quarter, including $18.0 million favorable foreign exchange movement.

As a result of our underwriting philosophy, the total premiums we write and the mix of premiums between property, casualty, and other business, may vary significantly from period to period depending on the market opportunities we identify.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our gross premiums written increased by $27.9 million, or 18.0%, compared to the equivalent 2022 period. The following table provides a further analysis of this overall increase:

Gross Premiums Written

Three months ended September 30, 2023

Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)

% change

Explanation

Property

$12.9

64.5%

The increase was driven from growth in our Commercial class, mainly due to new quota share treaties bound in mid-2022 and new insurance contracts via Syndicate 3456 in 2023. This resulted in a change in business mix for Property, with Commercial and Personal accounting for 49% and 51%, respectively, of total Property compared to 11% and 88%, respectively, for the same quarter in 2022.

Casualty

$17.7

19.4%

The increase was driven mainly from growth in General Liability from new contracts and premiums written from quota share treaties bound in 2022. This growth was partially offset by a reduction in the Workers’ Compensation class, where we have significantly reduced appetite for quota share treaties beginning in 2022, coupled with a marginal premium decrease in the Multi-line class.

As a result, the business mix within our Casualty line of business has changed significantly with General Liability and Multi-line classes accounting for 29% and 62% of total Casualty, respectively, compared to 15% and 76% in same period in 2022.

Other

$(2.7)

(6.2)%

The decrease was driven mainly by our decision to non-renew certain Accident & Health programs, coupled with lower premium written for our Financial class. The reduction in Financial premium was predominantly due to lower merger and acquisition activity in 2023 impacting premium from transactional liability programs and lower mortgage origination volumes in 2023 due to surging mortgage rates. This was partially offset by premium growth in the Other Specialty class, driven by favorable pricing and new contracts.

Return to table of contents

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our gross premiums written increased by $88.7 million, or 20.3%, compared to the equivalent 2022 period. The changes in gross premiums written for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were attributable to the following:

Gross Premiums Written

($ in millions)

% change

Explanation

Property

$35.8

60.9%

Same explanation as for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Casualty

$36.3

14.6%

Same explanation as for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Other

$16.5

12.8%

The increase was driven mainly by new contracts within our Marine class and Other Specialty class, primarily in aviation and cyber risk. This was partially offset by a reduction in Accident & Health and Financial classes for the same reasons as noted above. The decrease was also due partially to $4.4 million premium estimate reduction recorded earlier in 2023 relating to a transactional liability program bound in 2022 within our Financial class.

As a result, the change in business mix was follows: Other Specialty, Financial, and Marine represented 46%, 33%, and 17%, respectively, compared to 34%, 44%, and 14%, respectively, for the same period in 2022.

Premiums Ceded

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, premiums ceded were $14.8 million, or 8.1% of gross premiums written, compared to $8.8 million, or 5.7% of gross premiums written, for the same quarter in 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in quota share retrocessions for Property and Casualty, driven by growth from inward premiums.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, premiums ceded were $35.7 million, or 6.8% of gross premiums written, compared to $22.0 million, or 5.0% of gross premiums written for the period in 2022. The increase was driven mostly for the same reason noted above, in addition to an aviation quota share retrocession coverage purchased during the second quarter of 2023 as well as an additional $10.0 million excess of loss coverage purchased during the first quarter of 2023 to manage our exposure to marine and energy.

Net premiums earned for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased by $41.2 million or 33.8%, and $87.6 million or 24.5%, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The change in net premiums earned is primarily a function of the amount and timing of net premiums written during the current and prior periods, coupled by the mix of business written in the form of excess of loss versus proportional contracts.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses Incurred, Net

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the components of the loss ratio were as follows:


	Three months ended September 30					Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points	2023		2022		Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points
Current accident year loss ratio	61.4	%	75.8	%	(14.4)	61.4	%	70.2	%	(8.8)

Loss ratio	59.4	%	77.5	%	(18.1)	63.8	%	70.6	%	(6.8)

Current accident year loss ratio improved by 14.4 points for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same quarter in 2022 mainly due to lower CAT losses in 2023.

Current accident year loss ratio improved by 8.8 points for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to 5.2 points in lower CAT losses, coupled with favorable pricing and change in business mix in 2023.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had prior year favorable loss development of 2.0% and adverse loss development of 2.4%, respectively, compared to prior year adverse loss development of 1.7% and 0.4%, respectively, for the same periods in 2022.

($ in millions)

Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points

Property

$0.0

(66.0)

Despite the 122.5% increase in net premiums earned, there was virtually no change in our net losses incurred for Property primarily due to an increase in net premium earned from excess of loss contracts at lower loss ratios compared to proportional treaties, coupled with favorable loss development on prior year contracts.

The improvement in loss ratio is primarily due to lower CAT losses. In 2022, we incurred significant CAT losses from Hurricane Ian and Typhoons Nanmadol and Hinnamnor. Excluding the impact of prior year favorable loss development, our attritional loss ratio for Property was lower in the third quarter of 2023 compared to same period in 2022 due to improved pricing.

Casualty

$2.1

(12.2)

The increase in losses incurred was primarily driven by the 22.2% increase in net premiums earned and business mix.

The improvement in loss ratio points was predominantly from our Multi-line class which improved by 21.5% due to CAT losses from Hurricane Ian in 2022. This was partially offset by an increase in prior year attritional loss development relating to legacy motor, workers’ compensation and professional liability programs.

Other

$0.1

(13.8)

The losses incurred included CAT losses from Mexican state-owned oil platform fire and two satellite losses as well as losses from higher volume of premiums earned during the third quarter of 2023 compared to 2022. This increase was offset by favorable changes in prior year development and the change in business mix in Other.

Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)

Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points

Explanation

Property

$23.5

5.4

The increase in losses incurred is primarily due to 69.9% increase in net premiums earned, and to a lesser degree due to current year CAT losses and prior years’ loss development.

The increase in loss ratio points was primarily due to the comparative period loss ratio included 18.8 percentage points of favorable loss development, compared to 1.8 percentage points in 2023.

In 2023, the unprecedented U.S. severe storms losses and other CAT events contributed 28.8 loss ratio points to the Property loss ratio. During the comparable period in 2022, CAT losses from Hurricane Ian, Typhoons Nanmadol and Hinnamnor, and Tennessee wildfires contributed 31.8 percentage points to the Property loss ratio.

Adjusting for the impact of prior years’ loss development and CAT losses, the current period attritional Property loss ratio improved by 8.6 percentage points in 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, mainly due to improved pricing in 2023 and a higher volume of excess-of-loss treaties compared to proportional treaties.

Casualty

$13.8

(4.0)

The increase in losses incurred was primarily driven by the 15.0% increase in net premiums earned, coupled with an increase of $16.5 million in prior year loss development predominantly driven by attritional losses on the same classes as previously noted for the quarter.

The above increase was offset by the lower current year attritional loss ratio for Casualty mainly due to the change in business mix. As previously noted, we significantly grew General Liability and Multi-line classes at much lower loss ratios than the Workers’ Compensation class.

Other

$(6.0)

(20.0)

Despite the 29.0% increase in net premiums earned driven from growth in our Marine and Other Specialty classes, the additional losses incurred on this new business was offset by prior year favorable loss development and lower CAT losses. In 2022, the losses relating to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict contributed 14.3 points to the loss ratio.

Acquisition Costs, Net

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our total acquisition cost increased by 27.5% to $46.9 million, and by 19.4% to $126.7 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022, mainly due to growth in net premiums earned offset partially by lower commissions from excess of loss contracts compared to proportional treaties. The acquisition cost ratios by line of business were as follows:


	Three months ended September 30						Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		Increase / (decrease) in acquisition cost ratio points		2023		2022		Increase / (decrease) in acquisition cost ratio points

Total	28.8	%	30.2	%	(1.4)	%	28.4	%	29.6	%	(1.2)	%

The changes in the acquisition cost ratios for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the equivalent period in 2022, were attributable to the following:


Change in Acquisition Cost Ratios
Three months ended September 30, 2023
	Increase / (decrease) in acquisition cost ratio points	Explanation
Property	(1.3)%	The decrease was due primarily to the higher proportion of excess of loss contracts which have a lower ceding commission rate than proportional treaties. Based on net premiums earned for Property, excess of loss contracts accounted for 14% compared to 12% for the same quarter in 2022.
Casualty	0.3	The marginal increase was due mainly to changes in our business mix, particularly with an increase in earned premiums from General Liability and Multi-Line (including FAL) classes, which both have a higher ceding commission than the Workers’ Compensation business.
Other	(2.4)	The decrease was driven primarily by change in business mix, coupled with a higher proportion of excess of loss contracts than proportional treaties. Based on net premiums earned for Other, excess of loss contracts accounted for 31% compared to 25% for the same quarter in 2022.

The changes in the acquisition cost ratios during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the equivalent period in 2022, were attributable to the following:

	Three months ended September 30								Three months ended September 30
	2023								2022
	Property		Casualty		Other		Total		Property		Casualty		Other		Total

Loss ratio	54.1	%	67.4	%	45.6	%	59.4	%	120.1	%	79.6	%	59.4	%	77.5	%
Acquisition cost ratio	17.7		31.9		28.2		28.8		19.0		31.6		30.6		30.2
Composite ratio	71.8	%	99.3	%	73.8	%	88.2	%	139.1	%	111.2	%	90.0	%	107.7	%
Underwriting expense ratio							3.0								7.7
Combined ratio							91.2	%							115.4	%


	Nine months ended September 30								Nine months ended September 30
	2023								2022
	Property		Casualty		Other		Total		Property		Casualty		Other		Total

Loss ratio	81.6	%	67.0	%	47.5	%	63.8	%	76.2	%	71.0	%	67.5	%	70.6	%
Acquisition cost ratio	18.5		31.0		28.2		28.4		22.6		28.6		34.8		29.6
Composite ratio	100.1	%	98.0	%	75.7	%	92.2	%	98.8	%	99.6	%	102.3	%	100.2	%
Underwriting expense ratio							3.3								4.6
Combined ratio							95.5	%							104.8	%

The lower underwriting expense ratio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, was driven mainly by 5.0 and 1.7 points, respectively, relating to interest expense on deposit-accounted contracts based on revised expectations of ultimate cash flows in the comparable prior period in 2022.

Excluding the impact of the interest expense on deposit-accounted contracts, our underwriting expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, over the comparable periods in 2022 primarily due to additional personnel costs (including an increase in accrued incentive compensation costs), professional fees, and outsourced services. Further, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred $0.7 million of credit losses relating to certain reinsurance balances receivable and loss recoverable compared to nil in the same period in 2022.

General and Administrative Expenses

Details of general and administrative expenses are provided in the following table for the respective periods:


	Three months ended September 30				Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		2023		2022
	($ in thousands)				($ in thousands)
Underwriting expenses	$	4,639	$	3,285	$	14,046	$	10,034
Corporate expenses	3,266		4,104		13,820		12,693
General and administrative expenses	$	7,905	$	7,389	$	27,866	$	22,727

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by $0.5 million, or 7.0%, compared to the equivalent 2022 period primarily due to underwriting expenses as previously noted above. Corporate expenses decreased by $0.8 million or 20.4% compared to same period in 2022 mainly due to lower D&O insurance and legal fees. G&A expenses included $1.3 million and $1.2 million, of costs related to share-based compensation granted to employees and directors for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The reversal of share-based compensation relating to forfeited stock awards was insignificant for both periods.

Return to table of contents

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, G&A expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 22.6%, compared to the equivalent 2022 period, predominantly due to the 40.0% increase in underwriting expenses as previously noted. Corporate expenses increased by 8.9% driven mainly by the increase in personnel costs, including severance costs for our former CFO and an increase in accrued incentive compensation costs in light of the Company’s performance in 2023. The incentive compensation cost for the comparative period in 2022 was nil due to the losses suffered in the period. The increase in corporate expenses was partially offset by lower D&O insurance and legal fees. G&A expenses included $3.5 million (net of $0.3 million forfeiture credit) and $3.3 million (net of insignificant forfeiture credit), for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, of costs related to share-based compensation granted to employees and directors.

Total Investment Income (Loss)

Total investment income (loss) incorporates (i) changes in the net asset value of our investment in SILP managed by DME Advisors, (ii) interest income earned on the restricted cash and cash equivalents pledged as collateral to our clients, and (iii) gains (or losses) and interest on our portfolio of strategic and Innovations investments. We expect our total investment income, including any change in the net asset value of our investment in SILP, to fluctuate from period to period.

A summary of our total investment income (loss) is as follows for the respective periods::


	Three months ended September 30				Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		2023		2022
	($ in thousands)
Interest and dividend income, net of withholding taxes and other expenses	9,513		2,741		27,004		2,908

Total investment income (loss)	$	5,105	$	11,559	$	52,496	$	36,452

Net investment-related income (loss)

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our net investment-related income increased by $3.9 million or 129.0% compared to same period in 2022 mainly due to the increase in interest income, primarily from our restricted cash and cash equivalents which benefited from rising U.S. interest rates. The U.S. central bank hiked its benchmark borrowing rate 11 times for a total of 5.25 percentage points since March 2022. Partially offsetting this increase, we recognized $2.5 million unrealized losses on our Innovations-related investment as a result of recently completed financing rounds by some of our Innovations investees compared to a small unrealized gain in the same period in 2022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our net investment-related income increased by $12.7 million or 106.3% compared to the same period in 2023 for the same explanation as noted above. In 2022, our Innovations-related investment benefited from significant unrealized gains driven by favorable pricing conditions from completed financing rounds by some of our Innovations investees.

Income from investment in SILP

The caption “Income (loss) from investments in related party investment fund” in the above table is net of management fees paid by SILP to DME Advisors and performance compensation, if any, allocated from the Company’s investment in SILP to DME II. No performance compensation is allocated in periods of loss reported by SILP. For further information about management fees and performance compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, refer to Note 3 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Investment Portfolio managed by DME Advisors reported a loss of 0.6%, compared to a gain of 3.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. SILP’s long portfolio lost 4.1%, the short

Return to table of contents

portfolio gained 1.7%, and macro positions gained 2.8%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the significant contributors to SILP’s investment return were long positions in CONSOL Energy Inc. (CEIX), Capri Holdings as well as from a S&P 500 U.S. interest rate derivative position. The largest detractors were long positions in Green Brick Partners (GRBK) and Tenet Healthcare Corp. as well as one single-name short position.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Investment Portfolio managed by DME Advisors reported a gain of 9.1%, compared to a gain of 10.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The long portfolio and macro positions gained 22.8% and 2.6%, respectively, while the short portfolio lost 12.8% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The most significant contributors to SILP’s investment return for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were long positions in GRBK, CEIX, and U.S. interest rate derivative positions. For the same period, the most significant detractors were the hedge position for our GRBK exposure and two single-name short positions.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the gross investment return (loss) on our investments managed by DME Advisors (excluding the investment advisor performance allocation) was composed of the following:


	Three months ended September 30				Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Long portfolio gains (losses)	(4.1)	%	6.0	%	22.8	%	(10.5)	%
Short portfolio gains (losses)	1.7		(0.1)		(12.8)		21.1
Macro gains (losses)	2.8		(1.4)		2.6		2.6
Other income and expenses 1	(1.0)		(0.5)		(2.5)		(1.5)
Gross investment return	(0.6)	%	4.0	%	10.1	%	11.7	%
Net investment return 1	(0.6)	%	3.6	%	9.1	%	10.5	%

1 “Other income and expenses” excludes performance compensation but includes management fees. “Net investment return” incorporates both of these amounts.

The investment performance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 reflects the Investment Portfolio calculated based on 50% of GLRE Surplus, or the Company's shareholders' equity, as reported in the Company’s then most recent quarterly U.S. GAAP financial statements adjusted monthly for our share of the net profits and net losses reported by SILP during any intervening period (the “adjusted GLRE Surplus”). Effective January 1, 2023, the Investment Portfolio is calculated based on 60% of adjusted GLRE Surplus.

Each month, we post on our website (www.greenlightre.com) the returns from our investment in SILP.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total investments

The total investments at September 30, 2023 was $296.6 million, compared to $248.5 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $48.2 million, or 19.4%. The increase was primarily driven by strong performance from our SILP portfolio, coupled with net contributions in SILP and new Innovation investments. This was partially offset by the redemption of a matured term deposit.

At September 30, 2023, 93.3% of SILP’s portfolio was valued based on quoted prices in actively traded markets (Level 1), 5.0% was composed of instruments valued based on observable inputs other than quoted prices (Level 2), and a nominal amount was composed of instruments valued based on non-observable inputs (Level 3). At September 30, 2023, 1.7% of SILP’s portfolio consisted of private equity funds valued using the funds’ net asset values as a practical expedient.

At September 30, 2023, 82.8% of our Innovations-related portfolio was carried at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, measured as of the investees’ most recently completed financing round, and 17.2% was carried at the original cost.

Other than our investment in SILP (see Note 3 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements), we have not participated in transactions that created relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, including VIEs, established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents

We use our restricted cash and cash equivalents primarily for funding trusts and letters of credit issued to our ceding insurers. Our restricted cash decreased by $45.7 million, or 6.8%, from $668.3 million at December 31, 2022, to $622.6 million at September 30, 2023, primarily due to release of collateral from our ceding insurers relating to legacy contracts in run-off. This was partially offset by the $10.0 million collateral pledged as security for the new Facility (see “Debt” below).

Reinsurance balances receivable

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, reinsurance balances receivable increased by $134.8 million, or 26.7%, to $640.4 million from $505.6 million at December 31, 2022. This increase was related partially to funds withheld by cedents. At September 30, 2023, funds held by cedents were $422.4 million, compared to $337.4 million at December 31, 2022. Funds withheld predominantly relate to premiums withheld by Lloyd’s syndicates and funds contributed by the Company to Lloyd's as security for members’ underwriting activities. The remaining increase related to premiums receivable on new contracts bound, net of collections, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves; Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses Recoverable

Reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses were composed of the following:


	September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the total gross loss and loss adjustment expense reserves increased by $102.8 million, or 18.5%, to $658.2 million from $555.5 million at December 31, 2022. See Note 5 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of changes in outstanding loss and loss adjustment expense reserves and a description of prior period loss developments.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the total loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable increased by $15.0 million, or 112.9%, to $28.2 million from $13.2 million at December 31, 2022. See Note 6 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of the credit risk associated with our retrocessionaires.

At October 1, 2023, our estimated largest probable maximum loss (net of retrocession and reinstatement premiums) at a 1-in-250 year return period for a single event and in aggregate was $80.3 million and $87.7 million, respectively, both relating to the peril of North Atlantic Hurricane, compared to $77.5 million and $83.5 million, respectively, at January 1, 2023.

Debt

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our total debt decreased by $5.7 million, or 7.0%, to $74.9 million from $80.5 million at December 31, 2022. During 2023, we repurchased $17.2 million of Convertible Notes for a marginal realized gain. Further, we repaid the remaining $63.4 million Convertible Notes, including accrued interest, which matured on August 1, 2023. To repay this debt, we entered into a $75.0 million Facility with a group of banks, for which CIBC Bank USA is acting as administrative agent. In connection with this Facility, we contractually agreed to hedge 50% of the floating rate Terms Loans for the duration of the Facility. Refer to Notes 4 and 7 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the interest rate swaps used for hedging purposes and the material terms and conditions of the Facility, respectively.

Total shareholders’ equity

Total shareholders’ equity increased by $72.7 million to $575.9 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $503.1 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was primarily due to the net income of $69.2 million reported for the period. For details of other movements in shareholders’ equity, see the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Return to table of contents

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We anticipate positive cash flows from operations (underwriting activities and investment income) to be sufficient to cover cash outflows under most loss scenarios in the near term. Based on expected cash flows from operations, financing arrangements and redemptions from related party investment fund as needed, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to cover our working capital requirements and other contractual obligations and commitments through the foreseeable future. Refer to the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section included in Item 7 of our 2022 Form 10-K for a general discussion of liquidity and capital resources. The following provides an update on material changes to our liquidity and capital resources during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Sources and Uses of Funds

The following table summarizes our sources and uses of funds for the respective periods:


	Nine months ended September 30

(1) Cash includes unrestricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents - see Note 2 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cash used in operating activities

The lower use of cash in our operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 over the same period in 2022 was driven mainly by stronger operating performance, coupled with the ebb and flow from our underwriting activities, which may vary significantly from period to period depending on the mix of business, the nature of underwriting opportunities available and volume of claims submitted to us by our cedents.

Cash used by investing activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made net contributions of $23.0 million into SILP compared to net redemptions from SILP of $12.9 million during the same period in 2022, which contributed mostly to the $26.8 million increase in cash used by investing activities. Partially offsetting this increase, we invested $3.1 million less in Innovations investments for the same period in 2022, coupled with $6.0 million proceeds from a matured term deposit.

Cash used in financing activities

The decrease in cash used in our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 over the same period in 2022 was due to drawing fully on the new $75.0 million Facility, offset by the repayment of the remaining Convertible Notes on August 1, 2023, in addition to the partial repurchase of these Convertible Notes at a discount earlier in 2023.

Cash at September 30, 2023

As a result of the above activities, coupled with the foreign exchange rate adjustment on foreign cash, our consolidated cash position declined to $663.9 million at September 30, 2023, from $706.5 million at December 31, 2022.

Letters of Credit and Trust Arrangements

See Note 11 of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for details on the committed and uncommitted letter of credit facilities. We provide collateral to cedents in the form of letters of credit and trust arrangements. At September 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of collateral provided to cedents under such arrangements was $610.2 million (December 31, 2022: $667.6 million). At September 30, 2023, the letters of credit and trust accounts were secured by restricted cash and cash equivalents with a total fair value of $610.9 million (December 31, 2022: $668.3 million).

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Since December 31, 2022, the material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments at September 30, 2023 were as follows:


Payment due:	Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years		Total
	($ in thousands)

Loss and loss adjustment expense reserves (1)	$	326,484	$	195,495	$	74,380	$	61,874	$	658,234

(1) Due to the nature of our reinsurance operations, the amount and timing of the cash flows associated with our reinsurance contractual liabilities will fluctuate, perhaps materially, and, therefore, are highly uncertain.

Additionally, we have related party commitments as disclosed in Note 11 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2023, we estimate the reduced performance allocation of 10% to continue to be applied until SILP achieves additional investment returns of 117%, at which point the performance allocation will revert to 20%. For detailed breakdowns of management fees and performance compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, refer to Note 3 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Capital

Our capital structure currently consists of debt and equity issued in Ordinary shares - see Financial Condition for further details.

On July 25, 2023, at the Company’s Annual General Meeting, the shareholders approved the re-designation of Class B Ordinary shares as Class A Ordinary shares, and the reclassification of Class A Ordinary shares as “Ordinary shares,” resulting in the elimination of the dual-class share structure. At September 30, 2023, there were 35,337,407 outstanding Ordinary shares.

We expect that the existing capital base and internally generated funds will be sufficient to implement our business strategy for the foreseeable future. However, to provide us with flexibility and timely access to public capital markets should we require additional capital for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general corporate purposes, we have filed a Form S-3 registration statement, which expires in July 2024.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain certain amounts that are inherently subjective and have required management to make assumptions and best estimates to determine reported values. If certain factors, including those described in “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our 2022 Form 10-K, cause actual events or results to differ materially from our underlying assumptions or estimates. In that case, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity. The most significant estimates relate to: premium revenues and risk transfer, loss and loss adjustment expense reserves, investment impairments, allowances for credit losses, and share-based compensation.

We believe that the critical accounting estimates discussion in “Part II. Item 7. — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results on Operations” of our 2022 Form 10-K continues to describe the significant estimates and judgments included in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

At September 30, 2023, there were no recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that we expect could have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

There is no material change to our prior disclosure provided in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We believe we are principally exposed to the following types of market risk:


•						equity price risk;
•						commodity price risk;
•						foreign currency risk;
•						interest rate risk;
•						credit risk; and
•						political risk.

See “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our 2022 Form 10-K, for a discussion of our exposure to these risks. The following is an update of the material changes in our exposure to market risk at September 30, 2023 since December 31, 2022:

Equity Price Risk

At September 30, 2023, a 10% decline in the price of each of the underlying listed equity securities and equity-based derivative instruments would result in a $10.5 million loss to our Investment Portfolio and $3.5 million loss to our proportionate share of the equity exposure held by the Lloyd’s syndicates.

Commodity Price Risk

The following table summarizes the net impact that a 10% increase and decrease in commodity prices would have on the value of our Investment Portfolio at September 30, 2023. The below table excludes the indirect effect that changes in commodity prices might have on equity securities in our Investment Portfolio.


	10% increase in commodity prices		10% decrease in commodity prices
Commodity	Change in fair value		Change in fair value
	($ in millions)
Gold	$	3.3	$	(3.3)
Silver	0.3		(0.3)
Uranium	0.6		(0.6)
Crude oil	0.3		(0.3)
Total	$	4.5	$	(4.5)

Foreign Currency Risk

The following table summarizes the net impact of a hypothetical 10% currency rate movement relating to our main foreign denominated reinsurance net liabilities (including balances held at Lloyd's) at September 30, 2023:

Return to table of contents


Currency	Net Exposure		10% increase in currency rate		10% decrease in currency rate
	($ in thousands)
GBP	£	10,263	$	1,252	$	(1,252)
Euro	€	(12,547)	(1,326)		1,326
Total foreign exchange loss (gain)			$	(74)	$	74

Additionally, a 10% increase or decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies would have no meaningful impact on the value of our Investment Portfolio at September 30, 2023.

Interest Rate Risk

There was no material change in our exposure to interest rate risk at September 30, 2023 since December 31, 2022, except for:

•Our Term Loans are subject to interest rate variability based on SOFR plus 3.5% per annum, of which 50% is hedged by interest rate swaps. At September 30, 2023, a 100 basis points change (increase or decrease) in interest rates would result in a $0.4 million change to our interest expense for the unhedged portion of the Term Loans.

•Our investment in SILP includes interest-rate sensitive securities, such as corporate and sovereign debt instruments and interest rate derivatives. At September 30, 2023, a 100 basis points increase or decrease in interest rates would result in a $12.0 million gain or a $11.9 million loss, respectively, to our Investment Portfolio.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, the Company has evaluated, with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in such rules) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all frauds. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company continues to review its disclosure controls and procedures, including its internal controls over financial reporting, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that the Company’s systems evolve with its business.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, in the normal course of business, we may be involved in formal and informal dispute resolution procedures, which may include arbitration or litigation, the outcomes of which determine our rights and obligations under our reinsurance contracts and other contractual agreements. In some disputes, we may seek to enforce our rights under an agreement or to collect funds owing to us. In other matters, we may resist attempts by others to collect funds or enforce alleged rights. While the final outcome of legal disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that any of our existing contractual disputes, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report are any of the risks described in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our 2022 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 8, 2023. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations.

As of September 30, 2023, there have been no other material changes to the risk factors disclosed in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our 2022 Form 10-K. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Our Board of Directors has adopted a share repurchase plan authorizing the Company to repurchase ordinary shares. From time to time, the repurchase plan has been re-approved or modified at the election of our Board of Directors. On May 2, 2023, the Board of Directors re-approved the share repurchase plan effective from July 1, 2023, until June 30, 2024, authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $25.0 million of ordinary shares or securities convertible into ordinary shares in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or Rule 10b5-1 stock trading plans (as defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K).

The Company is not required to repurchase any ordinary shares and the repurchase plan may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, there was no repurchase of ordinary shares.

Item 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

Item 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Return to table of contents

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we did not have any “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements” or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 arrangements” (in each case, as defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K) in place for our directors and officers.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	Sep. 30, 2023
Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Investment Advisory Agreement Each of DME, DME II, and DME Advisors is an affiliate of the Chairman and, therefore, is a related party to the Company. The Company has entered into the SILP LPA (as described in Note 3 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). DME II receives a performance allocation equal to (with capitalized terms having the meaning provided under the SILP LPA) (a) 10% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that is less than or equal to the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account, plus (b) 20% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that exceeds the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account. The Carryforward Account for Greenlight Re and GRIL includes the amount of investment losses to be recouped, including any loss generated on the assets invested in SILP, subject to adjustments for redemptions. The loss carry-forward provision in the SILP LPA allows DME II to earn a reduced performance allocation of 10% of profits in years subsequent to any year in which SILP has incurred a loss until all losses are recouped, and an additional amount equal to 150% of the loss is earned. In accordance with the SILP LPA, DME Advisors constructs a levered investment portfolio as agreed by the Company (the “Investment Portfolio”, as defined in the SILP LPA). On September 1, 2018, SILP entered into the IAA with DME Advisors, which entitles DME Advisors to a monthly management fee equal to 0.125% (1.5% on an annual basis) of each limited partner’s Investment Portfolio. The IAA has an initial term ending on August 31, 2023, subject to an automatic extension for successive three-year terms. For a detailed breakdown of management fees and performance compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (see Note 3). Pursuant to the SILP LPA and the IAA, the Company has agreed to indemnify DME, DME II, and DME Advisors for any expense, loss, liability, or damage arising out of any claim asserted or threatened in connection with DME Advisors serving as the Company’s or SILP’s investment advisor. The Company will reimburse DME, DME II, and DME Advisors for reasonable costs and expenses of investigating and defending such claims, provided such claims were not caused due to gross negligence, breach of contract, or misrepresentation by DME, DME II, or DME Advisors. The Company incurred no indemnification amounts during the periods presented. Green Brick Partners, Inc. David Einhorn also serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Green Brick Partners, Inc. (“GRBK”), a publicly-traded company. At September 30, 2023, SILP, along with certain affiliates of DME Advisors, collectively owned 29.1% of the issued and outstanding common shares of GRBK. Under applicable securities laws, DME Advisors may sometimes be limited in its ability to trade GRBK shares held in SILP. At September 30, 2023, SILP held 2.7 million shares of GRBK. Service Agreement The Company has entered into a service agreement with DME Advisors, pursuant to which DME Advisors provides certain investor relations services to the Company for compensation of five thousand dollars per month (plus expenses). The agreement automatically renews annually until terminated by either the Company or DME Advisors for any reason with 30 days prior written notice to the other party. Collateral Assets Investment Management Agreement Effective January 1, 2019, the Company (and its subsidiaries) entered into a collateral assets investment management agreement (the “CMA”) with DME Advisors, pursuant to which DME Advisors manages certain assets of the Company that are not subject to the SILP LPA and are held by the Company to provide collateral required by the cedents in the form of trust accounts and letters of credit. In accordance with the CMA, DME Advisors receives no fees and is required to comply with the collateral investment guidelines. The CMA can be terminated by any of the parties upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the other parties.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The significant estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, loss and loss adjustment expense reserves, premiums written, earned, and receivable, variability underlying risk transfer assessments, allowances for credit losses, share-based compensation, valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets and investment impairments.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Restricted Cash Equivalents	Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Restricted Cash Equivalents The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances to collateralize regulatory trusts and letters of credit issued to cedents (see Note 11).
Funds Held by Cedents	Funds Held by CedentsThe caption “Reinsurance balances receivable” in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets includes financial assets held by cedents. At September 30, 2023, funds held by cedents were $422.4 million (December 31, 2022: $337.4 million). Such amounts include premiums withheld by Lloyd’s syndicates and funds contributed by the Company to Lloyd's as security for members’ underwriting activities. The Lloyd’s syndicates invest a portion of the premiums withheld in investment funds and fixed-maturity securities. The Company records its share of income (or expense) from these assets, in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption “Other income (expense)” as reported by the syndicates on a quarterly lag basis due to the timing of the availability of these quarterly financial reports.
