PART I — FINANCIAL INFORMATION

NOTE OF FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (herein referred as “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 established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 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.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q may include, but are not limited to, information regarding our estimates for catastrophes and weather-related losses (herein referred as “CAT losses”), measurements of potential losses in the fair market value of our investments, our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, the outcome of our strategic initiatives, our expectations regarding pricing, and other market and economic conditions including inflation, our growth prospects, and valuations of the potential impact of movements in interest rates, equity securities’ prices, and foreign currency exchange rates.

Forward-looking statements only reflect our expectations and are not guarantees of performance. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to:

a downgrade or withdrawal of our A.M. Best ratings;
any suspension or revocation of any of our licenses;
losses from catastrophes and other major events;
the loss of significant brokers; and
those described under “Item 1A, Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,2023, as filed with the SEC on March 5, 2024 (“2023 Form 10-K”), which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

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 underwriting 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.

GREENLIGHT CAPITAL RE, LTD.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
March 31, 2024
  
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization
 
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 is a global specialty property and casualty reinsurer headquartered in the Cayman Islands. The ordinary shares of GLRE are listed on Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GLRE.”

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “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. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. The financial statements include the accounts of GLRE and the consolidated financial statements of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these 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.

Tabular dollars are in thousands, with the exception of per share amounts or otherwise noted. All amounts are reported in U.S. dollars.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current financial statements. The Company has reported separately the foreign exchange gains (losses) from “Other income” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This resulted in no change to the previously reported total revenues or net income. The Company has also included the foreign exchange gains (losses) as part of the net change in working capital in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Further, the Company combined “Other assets, excluding depreciation” and “Other liabilities” and presented the sum as “Other items, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These changes in presentation in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have resulted in no change to the previously reported net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in its 2023 Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new ASU requires incremental disclosures related to a public entity’s reportable segments but does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments. This new guidance is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements, and should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted.

8

On December 14, 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic (740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new ASU provides more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. This ASU is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements.

As the above ASUs relate solely to financial statement disclosures, the adoption of these ASUs will not impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.


3. INVESTMENT IN RELATED PARTY INVESTMENT FUND

There has been no change to the Company’s agreement with Solasglas Investments, LP (“SILP” or “Solasglas”) as described in its 2023 Form 10-K.

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to SILP is limited to GLRE's share of Partners’ capital in SILP. At March 31, 2024, GLRE'’s share of Partners’ capital in SILP was $307.1 million (December 31, 2023: $258.9 million), representing 74.2% (December 31, 2023: 72.7%) of SILP’s total net assets. DME II held the remaining 25.8% (December 31, 2023: 27.3%) of SILP’s total net assets.

The Company’s share of the net increase in Partner’s capital for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $18.2 million (three months ended March 31, 2023: decrease of $3.1 million), as shown in the caption “Income (loss) from investment in related party investment fund” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The summarized financial statements of SILP are presented below.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company realized a loss of $0.8 million, and a corresponding reversal of unrealized loss relating to an investment which was previously fully impaired at December 31, 2022, resulting in no impact to the Company’s net income (loss) for the quarter.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company held $61.7 million and $61.3 million, respectively, of private investments and unlisted equities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. At March 31, 2024, the Company held $9.9 million (2023: $9.9 million) of private investments and unlisted equities measured at cost. The Company classifies these investments as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

The following table summarizes the periods between the most recent fair value measurement dates and March 31, 2024, for the private and unlisted equities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

Fair values measured on a nonrecurring basis$10,433 $18,552 $32,724 $61,709 

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 9). 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 months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a reduction in unrealized loss for the above derivatives of $0.5 million to $0.1 million, which is included in other liabilities 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.

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value

Estimates for Significant Catastrophe Events

At March 31, 2024, 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 three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $12.4 million for current year CAT loss events, driven mainly by the Baltimore bridge collapse and satellite failures. Additionally, the Company incurred $4.9 million of net adverse prior year CAT loss development relating primarily to a Mexican state-owned oil platform fire (2023 underwriting year), Hurricane Otis (2023 underwriting year) and homeowners’ property (mostly 2022 underwriting year).

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $6.2 million for current year CAT loss events, driven mainly by the Turkey earthquake, the New Zealand Cyclone Gabrielle and the U.S.
13

convective storms that occurred during the quarter, coupled with adverse prior year CAT development of $4.1 million relating to the 2022 Winter Storm Elliott.


Prior Year Reserve Development

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company experienced $5.4 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $10.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly for the above prior year CAT loss events, coupled with additional losses reported on general liability contracts (mostly 2015-2017 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends. The reserve increases were partially offset by $5.1 million favorable loss development predominantly from FAL and other specialty business (2022 and 2023 underwriting years).

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company experienced $12.0 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $13.9 million of reserve strengthening on casualty contracts due to current economic and social inflation trends (mostly 2019 and 2021 underwriting years), as well as on homeowners’ business primary due to the deterioration in the CAT loss estimate relating to Winter Storm Elliott (2022 underwriting year). This was partially offset by $1.9 million better than expected loss emergence for other lines of business (mostly 2021 and 2022 underwriting years).


8. RETROCESSION
 
From time to time, the Company purchases retrocessional coverage for one or more of the following reasons: to manage its overall exposure, reduce its net liability on individual risks, obtain additional underwriting capacity, and balance its underwriting portfolio. The Company records loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable from retrocessionaires as assets.

The following table provides a breakdown of ceded reinsurance:
Three months ended March 31
 20242023
Gross ceded premiums$23,181 $11,212 
Earned ceded premiums$15,242 $8,581 
Loss and loss adjustment expenses ceded$23,076 $6,171 

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. The following table shows a breakdown of losses recoverable on a gross and net of collateral basis:

(1) Collateral is in the form of cash, letters of credit, funds withheld, and/or cash collateral held in trust accounts. This excludes any excess collateral in order to disclose the aggregate net exposure for each retrocessionaire.
At March 31, 2024, we had 2 reinsurers (December 31, 2023: 3) that accounted for 10% or more of the total loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable, net, for an aggregate gross amount of $14.7 million (December 31, 2023: $20.4 million).

15

through privately negotiated transactions or Rule 10b5-1 stock trading plans. Any shares repurchased are canceled immediately upon repurchase. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no repurchase of ordinary shares.

Preferred Shares

The Company’s authorized share capital also consists of 50,000,000 preference shares with a par value of $0.10 each. At March 31, 2024, the Company has no issued and outstanding preferred shares.

The Company has posted deposits at Lloyd’s to support underwriting capacity for certain syndicates, including Syndicate 3456. Lloyd’s has a credit rating of “A” (Excellent) from A.M. Best.

Premiums receivable includes a significant portion of estimated premiums not yet due. Brokers and other intermediaries are responsible for collecting premiums from customers on the Company’s behalf. The Company monitors its concentration of credit risks from brokers. The diversity in the Company’s client base limits credit risk associated with premiums receivable and funds (premiums) held by cedents. Further, under the reinsurance contracts the Company has contractual rights to offset premium balances receivable and funds held by cedants against corresponding payments for losses and loss expenses.

Loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable, net

The Company regularly evaluates its net credit exposure to the retrocessionaires and their abilities to honor their respective obligations. See Note 8 for analysis of concentration of credit risk relating to retrocessionaires.

b) Lease Obligations

There has been no material change to the Company’s operating lease agreements as described in its 2023 Form 10-K.

c) 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.

Overview

Business Overview

We are a global specialty property and casualty reinsurer 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 earned net income of $27.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $21.1 million, or 359% over the same period in the prior year, principally due to stronger performance from our investment in SILP and to a lesser extent improved underwriting performance despite higher CAT losses.

The following is a summary of our financial performance for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023:
Gross premiums written was $217.3 million, an increase of 16.5%;
Net premiums earned was $161.5 million, an increase of 13.2%;
Net underwriting income (1) was $3.4 million, compared to $0.4 million;
Total investment income was $26.4 million, an increase of 403.6% (including 5.2% net return from our investment in SILP, compared to a loss of 1.1%);
Diluted EPS was $0.78, compared to $0.17; and
Fully diluted book value per share(1) was $17.39, an increase of 3.9%.

(1) See “Key Financial Measures and Non-GAAP Measures” section of this MD&A.


Outlook and Trends

Further to increasing competition in the market at the January 1, 2024 renewal season, we have continued to see higher levels of competition in the market in most classes of business throughout the first quarter. Most notably at the April 1 renewals, we observed an increase in capacity related to property catastrophe and specialty classes. Specific to Japanese property renewals, the pricing was impacted by the devaluation of the Japanese Yen over the trailing 12 months. We have seen market conditions stabilize relative to prior year, but continue to view the property and specialty market as attractive.

Market headline catastrophic events occurring in the first quarter of 2024 include the January 1 Noto Peninsula earthquake in Japan and the March 26 collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. The Japan earthquake event is anticipated to result in minimal losses ceded to the reinsurance market, and market conditions at the April 1 renewal reflected this, with risk adjusted rates modestly down and little evidence of supply constraints. Conversely, market sources are indicating that the Baltimore bridge collapse might be among the largest-ever Marine industry losses. As a result we expect the Marine & Energy reinsurance market to continue experiencing favorable pricing conditions.

The following provides further details on the significant variances for the first quarter 2024 (“Q1 2024”) compared to same quarter in 2023 (“Q1 2023”).

Overview

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the fully diluted book value per share increased by $0.65 per share, or 3.9%, to $17.39 per share from $16.74 per share at December 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, basic book value per share increased by $0.81 per share, or 4.8%, to $17.68 per share from $16.87 per share at December 31, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, our net income was $27.0 million, compared to net income of $5.9 million reported for the equivalent 2023 period.

The developments that most significantly affected our financial performance during Q1 2024, compared to the equivalent 2023 period, are summarized below:

Underwriting income: Increased by $3.0 million primarily driven by 1.8 percentage points improvement in our combined ratio due to lower adverse prior year loss development and acquisition costs, offset partially by an increase in underwriting costs. Current year CAT losses contributed 7.7% to our combined ratio, compared to 4.3% in Q1 2023. For further information on CAT losses and prior year loss development, refer to Note 7 - Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves of the Q1 2024 Financials.
Investment income: Increased by $21.2 million primarily driven by stronger results from SILP. Our investment in SILP reported a gain of $18.2 million during Q1 2024, compared to a loss of $3.1 million during the equivalent period in 2023. SILP generated a net return of 5.2% for Q1 2024.
Corporate expense: Decreased by $1.6 million mainly due to non-recurring severance costs included in Q1 2023 and lower outside legal costs following the hiring of our new General Counsel in April 2023.
Foreign exchange gains (losses): $1.6 million foreign exchange losses for Q1 2024, compared to $4.9 million foreign exchange gains in Q1 2023, driven mainly by the reversal of the pound sterling movement against the U.S. dollar; and
Other income, net: Increased by $2.9 million due to stronger investment income on funds withheld by third party Lloyd’s syndicates, reported on a quarterly lag basis.

(1) As a result of the reclassification of certain treaties within the lines of business (see Note 16 of the Q1 2024 Financials), the gross premiums written for Property, Casualty, and Other were restated accordingly. However, there was no change to the Total gross premiums written.
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 March 31, 2024, our gross premiums written increased by $30.8 million, or 16.5%, compared to the equivalent 2023 period. The following table provides a further analysis of this overall increase:
Gross Premiums Written
Three months ended March 31, 2024
Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)
% changeExplanation
Property$(5.4)(17.6)%
The decrease was driven predominantly by the non-renewal of a homeowner treaty within Personal class in order to reduce our exposure to U.S. severe convective storms. This was offset partially by growth in the Commercial class driven by new business. This resulted in a change in business mix for Property, with Commercial and Personal accounting for 72% and 28%, respectively, of total Property compared to 48% and 51%, respectively, for the same quarter in 2023.
Casualty$19.722.6%
The increase was driven predominantly from new quota share business in 2023 and 2024 within our Syndicate 3456, which is included in our Multi-line class. This was partially offset by lower renewals in our Professional class.

As a result, the business mix within our Casualty line of business has changed with General Liability and Multi-line classes accounting for 20% and 70% of total Casualty, respectively, compared to 24% and 62% in same period in 2023.
Other$16.524.0%
The increase was driven mainly from new business in our Marine and Energy class, including Lloyd’s whole account excess of loss treaties, offset partially by lower premiums written within Financial relating to Mortgage business.


Premiums Ceded
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, premiums ceded were $23.2 million, or 10.7% of gross premiums written, compared to $11.2 million, or 6.0% of gross premiums written, for the same quarter in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of an additional reinsurance coverage to reduce our overall exposure to Marine and Energy class in light of recent growth in this class of business, coupled with an increase in quota share retrocessions for Other Specialty business due to growth from inward premiums.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 net premiums written increased by $18.8 million, or 10.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The movement in net premiums written resulted from the changes in gross premiums written and ceded during the periods as previously noted.

(1) As a result of the reclassification of certain treaties within the lines of business (see Note 16), the net premiums earned for Property, Casualty, and Other were restated accordingly. However, there was no change to the Total net premiums earned.
Net premiums earned for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased by $18.9 million or 13.2%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. 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 LAE Incurred, Net
 
The components of the loss ratio were as follows:

Current accident year loss ratio increased by 5.0 points for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same quarter in 2023 driven by higher CAT losses in 2024, including $10.0 million for the Baltimore bridge loss event, net of $13.5 million loss recoveries.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had prior year adverse loss development of 3.3%, compared to 8.4% for the same quarter in 2023. Refer to Note 7 for further details on prior year developments.

Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)
Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points 
Property$(5.6)(42.1)
Despite the 24.6% increase in net premiums earned, our net losses incurred and loss ratio for Property decreased primarily due to higher CAT losses in Q1 2023 from the severe convective storms in the U.S., partially offset by an increase in prior year adverse attritional loss development in Q1 2024 relating mainly to a homeowners program.
Casualty$(1.0)(9.7)
Despite the 12.5% increase in net premiums earned, our net losses incurred decreased mainly due to lower prior year adverse loss development in our professional liability, motor, and workers’ compensation exposures. However, this was partially offset by an increase in prior year adverse loss development in our general liability business in Q1 2024.
Other$19.240.1
The increase in losses incurred and loss ratio is predominantly due to current year CAT losses from the Baltimore bridge collapse and satellite failures. Additionally, in Q1 2024 we had prior year adverse loss development compared to favorable loss development in Q1 2023 for Other, which contributed 5.8 loss ratio points.

The prior year adverse loss development in Q1 2024 was mainly related to the Mexican state-owned oil platform fire (2023 underwriting year).

Acquisition Costs, Net

Our total acquisition cost increased by 0.3% to $41.6 million, compared to Q1 2023, 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:

Change in Acquisition Cost Ratios
Three months ended March 31, 2024
 Increase / (decrease) in acquisition cost ratio pointsExplanation
Property0.1
No significant change.
Casualty(3.1)
The decrease was driven primarily by change in business mix, particularly due to an increase in net premiums earned from general liability and a decrease from multi-line business within Casualty. The multi-line class (including FAL) has a higher ceding commission.
Other(5.2)
The decrease was driven primarily by change in business mix, in which we had lower net premiums earned from the Financial class at higher acquisition costs offset by higher net premiums earned from Other Specialty class at lower acquisition costs. Excess of loss contracts accounted for 30% of the net premiums earned for Other Specialty class in Q1 2024, compared to 28% in Q1 2023.

General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses

The breakdown of our G&A expenses between underwriting and corporate functions was as follows:
Three months ended March 31
20242023
Underwriting expenses$6,339 $3,939 
Corporate expenses4,375 5,997 
General and administrative expenses$10,714 $9,936 
G&A increased by 7.8% in the current quarter, compared to Q1 2023. The increase was driven by:

Underwriting expenses: Increased by $2.4 million or 60.9%, predominantly due to an increase in headcount to drive business growth, coupled with an increase in professional fees and outsourced services relating to underwriting activities. As a result, our underwriting expense ratio increased by 1.6 percentage points in the current quarter compared to Q1 2023.

Corporate expenses: Decreased by $1.6 million or 27.0%, driven mainly by non-recurring severance costs included in Q1 2023 and lower outside legal costs following the hiring of our new General Counsel in April 2023.


Total Investment Income

A summary of our total investment income is as follows:
Three months ended March 31
 20242023
Interest and dividend income, net of withholding taxes and other expenses$8,556 $8,628 
Net realized and unrealized gains on other investments (see Note 4)(413)(250)

Share of Solasglas' net income (see Note 3)18,248 (3,138)
Total investment income$26,391 $5,240 

Net investment-related income

Our net investment-related income decreased marginally compared to Q1 2023, driven mostly by an impairment charge relating to our Innovations-related investments.

Share of Solasglas’ net income

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Solasglas reported a gain of 5.2%, compared to a loss of 1.1% for the same quarter in 2023. The following table provides a breakdown of the gross and net investment return.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the significant contributors to SILP’s investment return were long positions in Green Brick Partners (GRBK), Tenet Healthcare (THC), and an S&P 500 / U.S. interest rate derivative position. The largest detractors were long positions in Penn National Gaming (PENN), CONSOL Energy (CEIX), and a single-name short position.

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

At March 31, 2024, our total investments increased by $47.6 million, or 14.3%, to $379.8 million from December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by $30.0 million of additional contributions into SILP, coupled with the net investment return for Q1 2024.

Investments in SILP

DME Advisors reports the composition of SILP’s portfolio on a delta-adjusted basis, which it believes is the appropriate manner to assess the exposure and profile of investments and reflects how it manages the portfolio. An option’s delta is the option price’s sensitivity to the underlying stock (or commodity) price. The delta-adjusted basis is the number of shares or contracts underlying the option multiplied by the delta and the underlying stock (or commodity) price.
  
The following table represents the composition of SILP’s investments:

Long %Short %Long %Short %
Equities and related derivatives83.7 45.6 90.2 53.8 
Private and unlisted equity securities1.8 — 2.0 — 
Debt instruments0.2 %— 0.3 %— 
Total85.7 %45.6 %92.5 %53.8 %

The above exposure analysis does not include cash (U.S. dollar and foreign currencies), gold and other commodities, credit default swaps, sovereign debt, foreign currency derivatives, interest rate derivatives, inflation swaps and other macro positions. Under this methodology, a total return swap’s exposure is reported at its full notional amount and options are reported at their delta-adjusted basis. At March 31, 2024, SILP’s exposure to gold on a delta-adjusted basis was 8.7% (Q1 2023: 11.2%).

At March 31, 2024, 95.2% of SILP’s portfolio was valued based on quoted prices in actively traded markets (Level 1), 3.4% 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 March 31, 2024, 1.4% of SILP’s portfolio consisted of private equity funds valued using the funds’ net asset values as a practical expedient.

33

Other Investments

The other investment holdings relate to private investments made by Innovations. During Q1 2024, we made no new private investments compared to $1.1 million in Q1 2023.

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 $23.4 million, or 3.9%, from $604.6 million at December 31, 2023, to $581.2 million at March 31, 2024, primarily due to release of collateral from our ceding insurers relating to legacy contracts in run-off.

Reinsurance balances receivable

Our reinsurance balances receivable increased by $74.3 million, or 12.0%, to $693.7 million from $619.4 million at December 31, 2023. This increase was driven primarily by the renewal of reinsurance treaties, in addition to new business in Q1 2024.

Total$192,063 $538,592 $730,655 $189,050 $472,504 $661,554 

Our total gross loss and LAE reserves increased by $69.1 million, or 10.4%, to $730.7 million from $661.6 million at December 31, 2023. This increase is primarily driven by the increase in earned premium from the renewal of reinsurance and new business, offset partially by paid losses during Q1 2024. See Note 7 “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” of the financial statements for a summary of changes in outstanding loss and LAE reserves and a description of prior period loss developments.

Our total loss and LAE recoverable increased by $19.1 million, or 74.3%, to $44.8 million from $25.7 million at December 31, 2023. This increase was driven mainly by the loss recoveries on the Baltimore bridge loss event. See Note 8 “Retrocession” of the financial statements for a description of the credit risk associated with our retrocessionaires.

Probable Maximum Loss (“PML”)

At April 1, 2024, our estimated largest PML at a 1-in-250-year return period for a single event, and in aggregate, was $103.3 million and $111.5 million, respectively, both relating to the peril of North Atlantic Hurricane, compared to $89.7 million and $97.0 million, respectively, at January 1, 2024. We have increased our PMLs in response to favorable market conditions and attractive opportunities, coupled with higher surplus to remain within our risk management appetite.

Total shareholders’ equity
 
Total shareholders’ equity increased by $28.4 million to $624.5 million, compared to $596.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the net income of $27.0 million reported for the quarter. For details of other movements in shareholders’ equity, see the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Cash, end of period$642,806 $666,260 
(1) Cash includes unrestricted and restricted cash and cash equivalents - see Note 5 of the financial statements.

Cash provided by operating activities

The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven mainly by $3.0 million improved underwriting income, 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 in investing activities

The increase in cash used for investing activities was driven mainly by the net change in our investment in SILP where we made a net contribution of $30.0 million during Q1 2024 compared to a net redemption of $21.0 million during Q1 2023. During Q1 2023, we also made $1.1 million additional Innovations-related investments.

Cash used in financing activities

The decrease in cash used in our financing activities was driven mainly by the repurchase of a portion of the outstanding Convertible Notes in Q1 2023. In Q1 2024, we made the quarterly installment on the Term Loans.

Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our capital structure:

Ratio of debt to shareholders’ equity

The debt to shareholders’ equity provides an indication of our leverage and capital structure, along with some insights into our financial strength. In addition to the above capital, we also have LOC facilities to support our reinsurance business operations where we are not licensed or admitted as a reinsurer.

Our total capital increased in Q1 2024 primarily due to net income for the quarter.
36


Ordinary Shares

At March 31, 2024, there were 35,321,144 outstanding ordinary shares, a decrease of 15,588 since December 31, 2023, due to forfeited performance restricted shares net of issuance of ordinary shares for vested RSUs.

We did not repurchase any ordinary shares for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

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. 

Secured LOC Facilities

    As disclosed in Note 9 “Debt and Credit Facilities” of Q1 2024 Financials, the $275 million committed capacity under the Citi LOC agreement will terminate on August 20, 2024. However, Citi informed the Company that it intends to continue providing the Citi LOC on an uncommitted basis for the foreseeable future following the termination date.

(2) See Note 9 “Debt and Credit Facilitiesof the financial statements.


Critical Accounting Estimates
 
Our 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 2023 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 2023 Form 10-K continues to describe the significant estimates and judgments included in the preparation of these financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

At March 31, 2024, 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. See Note 2 “Significant Accounting Policies of the Q1 2024 Financials.

Item 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Our financial instruments are subject to a variety of market risks. The term market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes from:
equity price;
commodity price;
foreign currency; and
interest rate (including credit spreads).

We performed a sensitivity analysis below to estimate the effects that market risk exposure could have on the future earnings, fair values or cash flows of our financial instruments. These represent forward-looking statements of market risk assuming certain adverse market conditions occur. Actual results in the future may differ materially from these projected results due to actual developments in the global financial markets.

Equity Price Risk
At March 31, 2024, our investments consisted primarily of an investment in SILP. Among SILP’s holdings are equity securities, the carrying values of which are based primarily on quoted market prices. Generally, market prices of common equity securities are subject to fluctuation, which could cause the amount to be realized upon closing a position to differ significantly from its current reported value. This risk is partly mitigated by the presence of both long and short equity securities as part of SILP’s investment strategy. At March 31, 2024, a 10% decline in the price of each of the underlying listed equity securities and equity-based derivative instruments would result in a $14.4 million (2023: $8.1 million) unrealized loss in our investment in SILP.

Commodity Price Risk
Generally, market prices of commodities are subject to fluctuation. SILP’s investments periodically include long or short investments in commodities or derivatives directly impacted by fluctuations in the prices of commodities. At March 31, 2024, SILP’s investments incorporate unhedged exposure to changes in gold, copper, uranium, and crude oil prices.
The following table summarizes the net impact that a 10% movement in commodity prices would have on the fair value of SILP’s investment portfolio. The below table excludes the indirect effect that changes in commodity prices might have on equity securities in the SILP’s investment portfolio.

Foreign Currency Risk
Underwriting Related

Certain of our reinsurance contracts are denominated in foreign currencies, whereby premiums are receivable and losses are payable in foreign currencies. Foreign currency exchange rate risk exists to the extent that our foreign currency reinsurance balances are more than (or less than) the corresponding foreign currency cash balances, and there is an increase (or decrease) in the exchange rate of that foreign currency.  

While we do not seek to precisely match our liabilities under reinsurance policies that are payable in foreign currencies with investments denominated in such currencies, we continually monitor our exposure to potential foreign currency losses and may use foreign currency cash and cash equivalents or forward foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate against adverse foreign currency movements.

Certain cedents, particularly the Lloyd’s syndicates, report to us in foreign currencies even though some or all of the underlying exposure is denominated in U.S. dollars. Our condensed consolidated statements of operations may report a foreign exchange gain or loss associated with this exposure when reported by the cedents. Additionally, we may report foreign exchange gains or losses due to the mismatch between the currency exchange rates applied to foreign-denominated (i) monetary balances and (ii) non-monetary balances under U.S. GAAP. See Note 2 of the accompanying financial statements for further information regarding our accounting treatment of foreign currency transactions.

We monitor our foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities on an “underlying exposure” basis without distinguishing between monetary and non-monetary balances.

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

March 31, 2024Net Asset (Liability) Exposure10% increase in currency rate10% decrease in currency rate
GBP£31,671 $(3,997)$3,997 
Euro(13,082)1,412 (1,412)
Total foreign exchange gain (loss)
$(2,585)$2,585 

December 31, 2023Net Asset (Liability) Exposure10% increase in currency rate10% decrease in currency rate
GBP£25,337 $(3,228)$3,228 
Euro(13,975)1,543 (1,543)
Total foreign exchange gain (loss)
$(1,685)$1,685 

Investment in SILP

We may also be exposed to foreign currency risk through SILP’s underlying cash, forwards, options, and investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. At March 31, 2024, most of SILP’s currency exposures resulting from foreign-denominated securities (longs and shorts) were reduced by offsetting cash balances denominated in the corresponding foreign currencies.

At March 31, 2024 and 2023, a 10% increase or decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies would have no meaningful impact on our investment in SILP. 
  
Interest Rate Risk
The primary market risk exposure for any debt instrument is interest rate risk, including credit spreads.  Most of our interest rate risk relates to interest rate derivatives held in SILP, and their value may fluctuate with changes in interest rates. 
39


At March 31, 2024, our investment in SILP includes interest-rate sensitive securities, such as corporate and sovereign debt instruments and interest rate derivatives. A 100 basis points change (increase or decrease) in interest rates would result in a $14.0 million gain (December 31, 2023: $1.6 million) or a $2.5 million (December 31, 2023: $3.5 million) loss, respectively, to our investment in SILP.

We, along with DME Advisors, monitor the net exposure to interest rate risk and generally do not expect changes in interest rates to have a materially adverse impact on our operations.


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 March 31, 2024 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 2023 Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 5, 2024. 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 March 31, 2024, there have been no other material changes to the risk factors disclosed in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our 2023 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 has adopted a share repurchase plan. The timing of such repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on various factors, including price, market conditions, and applicable regulatory and corporate requirements. On May 3, 2024, our Board of Directors re-approved the share repurchase plan until June 30, 2025, authorizing us 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. Any shares repurchased are canceled immediately upon repurchase. We are not required to repurchase any of the ordinary shares. The repurchase plan may be modified, suspended, or terminated at the election of our Board of Directors at any time without prior notice.

There were no share repurchases made under the plan during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Item 3.    DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES 
 
None.
 
Item 4.    MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.
 

Item 5.    OTHER INFORMATION

(c) Insider Trading Arrangements and Related Disclosures

Our directors and executive officers may purchase or sell shares of our ordinary shares in the market from time to time, including pursuant to equity trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b5-1”) and in compliance with guidelines specified by the Company. In accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and our insider trading policy, directors, officers, and certain employees who, at such time, are not in possession of material non-public information about the Company are permitted to enter into written plans that pre-establish amounts, prices and dates (or formula for determining the amounts, prices and dates) of future purchases or sales of the Company’s stock, including shares acquired pursuant to the Company’s equity plans (“Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans”). Under Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director or executive officer when entering into the plan, without further direction from them.

41

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we did not have any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 arrangements” (as defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K) in place for our directors and officers.

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
 
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 is a global specialty property and casualty reinsurer headquartered in the Cayman Islands. The ordinary shares of GLRE are listed on Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GLRE.”

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “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. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. The financial statements include the accounts of GLRE and the consolidated financial statements of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

In the opinion of management, these 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.

Tabular dollars are in thousands, with the exception of per share amounts or otherwise noted. All amounts are reported in U.S. dollars.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current financial statements. The Company has reported separately the foreign exchange gains (losses) from “Other income” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This resulted in no change to the previously reported total revenues or net income. The Company has also included the foreign exchange gains (losses) as part of the net change in working capital in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Further, the Company combined “Other assets, excluding depreciation” and “Other liabilities” and presented the sum as “Other items, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These changes in presentation in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have resulted in no change to the previously reported net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in its 2023 Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new ASU requires incremental disclosures related to a public entity’s reportable segments but does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments. This new guidance is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements, and should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted.
On December 14, 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic (740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new ASU provides more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. This ASU is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements.

As the above ASUs relate solely to financial statement disclosures, the adoption of these ASUs will not impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

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 9). 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 months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a reduction in unrealized loss for the above derivatives of $0.5 million to $0.1 million, which is included in other liabilities 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.
Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value
At March 31, 2024, the carrying value of debt and convertible debt securities within “Other Investments” (see Note 4) and the Term Loans approximates their fair values. The Company classifies these financial instruments as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Estimates for Significant Catastrophe Events

At March 31, 2024, 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 three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $12.4 million for current year CAT loss events, driven mainly by the Baltimore bridge collapse and satellite failures. Additionally, the Company incurred $4.9 million of net adverse prior year CAT loss development relating primarily to a Mexican state-owned oil platform fire (2023 underwriting year), Hurricane Otis (2023 underwriting year) and homeowners’ property (mostly 2022 underwriting year).

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $6.2 million for current year CAT loss events, driven mainly by the Turkey earthquake, the New Zealand Cyclone Gabrielle and the U.S.
convective storms that occurred during the quarter, coupled with adverse prior year CAT development of $4.1 million relating to the 2022 Winter Storm Elliott.


Prior Year Reserve Development

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company experienced $5.4 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $10.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly for the above prior year CAT loss events, coupled with additional losses reported on general liability contracts (mostly 2015-2017 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends. The reserve increases were partially offset by $5.1 million favorable loss development predominantly from FAL and other specialty business (2022 and 2023 underwriting years).

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company experienced $12.0 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $13.9 million of reserve strengthening on casualty contracts due to current economic and social inflation trends (mostly 2019 and 2021 underwriting years), as well as on homeowners’ business primary due to the deterioration in the CAT loss estimate relating to Winter Storm Elliott (2022 underwriting year). This was partially offset by $1.9 million better than expected loss emergence for other lines of business (mostly 2021 and 2022 underwriting years).

From time to time, the Company purchases retrocessional coverage for one or more of the following reasons: to manage its overall exposure, reduce its net liability on individual risks, obtain additional underwriting capacity, and balance its underwriting portfolio. The Company records loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable from retrocessionaires as assets.

The following table provides a breakdown of ceded reinsurance:

The Company has posted deposits at Lloyd’s to support underwriting capacity for certain syndicates, including Syndicate 3456. Lloyd’s has a credit rating of “A” (Excellent) from A.M. Best.

Premiums receivable includes a significant portion of estimated premiums not yet due. Brokers and other intermediaries are responsible for collecting premiums from customers on the Company’s behalf. The Company monitors its concentration of credit risks from brokers. The diversity in the Company’s client base limits credit risk associated with premiums receivable and funds (premiums) held by cedents. Further, under the reinsurance contracts the Company has contractual rights to offset premium balances receivable and funds held by cedants against corresponding payments for losses and loss expenses.

Loss and loss adjustment expenses recoverable, net

The Company regularly evaluates its net credit exposure to the retrocessionaires and their abilities to honor their respective obligations. See Note 8 for analysis of concentration of credit risk relating to retrocessionaires.

b) Lease Obligations

There has been no material change to the Company’s operating lease agreements as described in its 2023 Form 10-K.

c) 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.

Reclassifications
Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current financial statements. The Company has reported separately the foreign exchange gains (losses) from “Other income” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. This resulted in no change to the previously reported total revenues or net income. The Company has also included the foreign exchange gains (losses) as part of the net change in working capital in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Further, the Company combined “Other assets, excluding depreciation” and “Other liabilities” and presented the sum as “Other items, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These changes in presentation in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have resulted in no change to the previously reported net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new ASU requires incremental disclosures related to a public entity’s reportable segments but does not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments, or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments. This new guidance is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements, and should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted.
On December 14, 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes Topic (740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new ASU provides more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. This ASU is effective for the Company’s 2024 year-end financial statements.

As the above ASUs relate solely to financial statement disclosures, the adoption of these ASUs will not impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

This resulted in reclassifying $8.1 million from Casualty (mostly multi-line class), and $7.9 million to Other (mostly marine and other specialty classes) and $0.2 million to Property for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
