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)
June 30, 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 were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies subsequent to 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

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there was no change to the Company’s agreement with Solasglas Investments, LP (“Solasglas”). Effective August 1, 2024, the parties amended the agreement to revise the Investment Cap from 60% to 70% (as defined in Note 3 of the 2023 Form 10-K).

The Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to Solasglas is limited to GLRE's share of Partners’ capital in Solasglas. At June 30, 2024, GLRE’s share of Partners’ capital in Solasglas was $351.5 million (December 31, 2023: $258.9 million), representing 76.3% (December 31, 2023: 72.7%) of Solasglas’ total net assets. DME II held the remaining 23.7% (December 31, 2023: 27.3%) of Solasglas’ total net assets.

The Company’s share of the net increase in Partner’s capital for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $4.3 million and $22.6 million, respectively, (three and six months ended June 30, 2023: $32.8 million and $29.6 million, respectively), 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 Solasglas are presented below.

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 and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a reduction in unrealized loss of $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the above derivatives to a nominal value at June 30, 2024, 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. There were no derivative financial instruments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Estimates for Significant Catastrophe Events

At June 30, 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 six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized total CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $35.2 million. Current year CAT loss events were $25.7 million, driven mainly by the Baltimore bridge collapse, the U.S. tornados (including severe convective storms), satellite failures, and a Mexican state-owned oil platform fire. Additionally, the Company incurred $9.4 million of net adverse prior year CAT loss development relating primarily to severe weather affecting U.S. homeowners’ property coverage (2021-2023 underwriting years).

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized total CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $19.6 million. Current year CAT loss events were $16.4 million, driven mainly by the Turkey earthquake, New Zealand Cyclone
13

Gabrielle and the U.S. tornados, coupled with $3.2 million net adverse prior year CAT loss development mainly relating to the 2022 Winter Storm Elliott.


Prior Year Reserve Development

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company experienced $4.7 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was composed of $19.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly for the above prior year CAT loss events, coupled with additional losses reported on general liability contracts (mostly 2014-2017 underwriting years) and legacy quota share workers’ compensation treaties (mostly 2017-2021 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends. The reserve increases were partially offset by $14.8 million favorable loss development predominantly from mortgage contracts (various underwriting years), multi-line commercial treaties (mostly 2020 underwriting year), Funds at Lloyd’s (“FAL”) (2023 underwriting year), and other specialty business (mostly 2020-2022 underwriting years).

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company experienced $13.8 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $21.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly on casualty contracts (mostly 2018, 2019 and 2021 underwriting years) and property contracts (mostly 2020 and 2021 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends, coupled with adverse CAT loss development on U.S. homeowners’ property business relating to Winter Storm Elliott (2022 underwriting year). This was partially offset by $7.7 million better than expected loss emergence predominantly from other property catastrophe events (mostly 2019, 2021 and 2022 underwriting years).


8. RETROCESSION

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 was no material change to the Company’s operating lease agreements subsequent to 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.

For the second quarter of 2024 (“Q2 2024”) we earned a net income of $8.0 million, a decrease of $41.9 million over the same period in the prior year, principally due to the lower return from our investment in Solasglas and to a lesser extent lower underwriting profits driven by higher CAT losses.

The following is a summary of our financial performance for Q2 2024, compared to the same quarter in 2023 (“Q2 2023”):
Gross premiums written was $169.0 million, an increase of 9.1%;
Net premiums earned was $158.4 million, an increase of 13.2%;
Net underwriting income (1) was $0.3 million, compared to $5.4 million;
Total CAT losses, net of reinsurance, were $17.9 million, compared to $9.3 million;
Total investment income was $12.6 million, a decrease of 70.2% (including 1.2% net return from our investment in Solasglas, compared to net return of 10.9%); and
Diluted EPS was $0.23, compared to $1.32.

Fully diluted book value per share(1) was $17.65 at June 30, 2024, an increase of 5.4% since December 31, 2023.

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


Outlook and Trends

The 2024 mid-year renewals have been characterized by a healthy balance of supply and demand of reinsurance capacity. Reinsurance terms and conditions are retaining discipline across a majority of classes, most notably with respect to property excess of loss attachment points. We continue to view the terms and conditions available in the property and specialty market as attractive for growth.

As we approach the peak months of North Atlantic hurricane season, the industry’s attention is drawn to the record set in early July by Hurricane Beryl for the earliest category 5 storm to form in the North Atlantic. Another key focus in the industry is the degree of additional reserve strengthening that may emerge in casualty classes throughout the remainder of the year.

It is likely that terms and conditions in the reinsurance market will be highly dependent on the progression of the above factors throughout the remainder of 2024.

The following provides further details on the significant variances for Q2 2024 compared to same quarter in 2023 (“Q2 2023”) and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (“YTD 2024”) compared to the same period in 2023 (“YTD 2023”).

Overview

Three months ended June 30, 2024

Fully diluted book value per share increased by $0.26 per share, or 1.5%, to $17.65 per share from $17.39 per share at March 31, 2024. Basic book value per share increased by $0.27 per share, or 1.5%, to $17.95 per share from $17.68 per share at March 31, 2024.

Net income was $8.0 million for Q2 2024, compared to net income of $49.9 million reported for Q2 2023.

The developments that most significantly affected our financial performance during Q2 2024, compared to Q2 2023, are summarized below:

Underwriting income: Decreased by $5.1 million primarily driven by 3.6 percentage points increase in our combined ratio, predominantly due to higher acquisition costs relating to our FAL business, partially offset by improved loss ratio and underwriting expense ratio. While total CAT losses were higher than in Q2 2023, this was offset by improved attritional loss ratio for our underwriting portfolio during the quarter. Current year CAT losses contributed 8.4% to our combined ratio, compared to 7.3% in Q2 2023. For further information on CAT losses and prior year loss development, refer to Note 7 - Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves of the Q2 2024 Financials.
Investment income: Decreased by $29.6 million primarily driven by lower income from Solasglas. Our investment in Solasglas reported a gain of $4.3 million during Q2 2024, compared to a gain of $32.8 million during Q2 2023. Solasglas generated a net return of 1.2% for Q2 2024 compared to a net return of 10.9% for Q2 2023; and
Foreign exchange gains (losses): $0.9 million foreign exchange losses for Q2 2024, compared to $4.7 million foreign exchange gains in Q2 2023, driven mainly by the strengthening of the pound sterling against the U.S. dollar in Q2 2023 whereby there was no significant movement in Q2 2024.

Six months ended June 30, 2024

Fully diluted book value per share increased by $0.91 per share, or 5.4%, to $17.65 per share from $16.74 per share at December 31, 2023. Basic book value per share increased by $1.08 per share, or 6.4%, to $17.95 per share from 16.87 per share at December 31, 2023.

Net income was $35.0 million for YTD 2024, compared to net income of $55.7 million reported for YTD 2023.

The developments that most significantly affected our financial performance during YTD 2024, compared to YTD 2023, are summarized below:

Underwriting income: Decreased by $2.1 million primarily driven by 0.9 percentage points increase in our combined ratio mainly due to an increase in acquisition costs (same reason as Q2 2024) and an increase in underwriting expenses. While current year CAT losses contributed 8.0 percentage points to our combined ratio, compared to 5.8 percentage points for YTD 2023, the increase was offset by an improved attritional loss ratio for
27

our underwriting portfolio. For further information on CAT losses and prior year loss development, refer to Note 7 - Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves of the Q2 2024 Financials.
Investment income: Decreased by $8.4 million primarily driven by lower income from Solasglas. Our investment in Solasglas reported a gain of $22.6 million during YTD 2024, compared to a gain of $29.6 million during the equivalent period in 2023. Solasglas generated a net return of 6.4% for YTD 2024 compared to a net return of 9.7% for YTD 2023 .
Corporate expense: Decreased by $1.5 million mainly due to non-recurring severance costs included in YTD 2023 and lower outside legal costs following the hiring of our new General Counsel in April 2023.
Foreign exchange gains (losses): $2.6 million foreign exchange losses for YTD 2024, compared to $9.7 million foreign exchange gains for YTD 2023, driven mainly by the reversal of the pound sterling movement against the U.S. dollar; and
Other income, net: Increased by $2.7 million due to stronger investment income generated on funds withheld by third party Lloyd’s syndicates, reported on a quarterly lag basis.

Underwriting Results by Segment
The following provides a further discussion of our underwriting results for our Property & Casualty (Re)insurance operating segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Gross Premiums Written
 
Details of gross premiums written are provided in the following table: 
 Three months ended June 30Six months ended June 30
 2024202320242023
Property$22,777 13.5 %$31,160 20.1 %$47,953 12.4 %$61,720 18.1 %

Total$168,975 100.0 %$154,943 100.0 %$386,233 100.0 %$341,398 100.0 %

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.

Our Q2 2024 gross premiums written increased by $14.0 million, or 9.1%, compared to the equivalent 2023 period.

The following table provides a further analysis of this overall increase:
Gross Premiums Written
Three months ended June 30, 2024
Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)
% changeExplanation
Property$(8.4)(26.9)%
The decrease was driven predominantly by the non-renewal of a U.S. homeowners’ property treaty within Personal class. This was offset partially by growth in the Commercial class driven by new Innovations business. This resulted in a change in business mix for Property, with Commercial and Personal accounting for 53% and 47%, respectively, of total Property compared to 46% and 53%, respectively, for the same quarter in 2023.
Casualty$(8.3)(9.3)%
The decrease was driven predominantly from revision to estimated ultimate gross premiums for certain 2023 and 2024 FAL treaties, partially offset by growth experienced by Syndicate 3456, within the Multi-line class.
Additionally, we revised the estimated premiums for certain prior years’ quota share treaties within Professional and Workers’ Compensation classes of business. This reduction in Casualty premiums was partially offset by growth in the General Liability class from 2023 quota share treaties and new business in 2024. Further, Motor Liability premium increased mainly due to new excess of loss treaties.

As a result, the business mix within our Casualty line of business has changed with General Liability, Motor Liability, and Multi-line classes accounting for 42%, 11%, and 48% of total Casualty, respectively, compared to 31%, 3%, and 58% in the same period in 2023.
Other$30.786.9%
The increase was driven predominantly by new business in our Marine and Energy class, including Lloyd’s whole account excess of loss treaties.

Our YTD 2024 gross premiums written increased by $44.8 million, or 13.1%, compared to the equivalent 2023 period.

The following table provides a further analysis of this overall increase:
Gross Premiums Written
Six months ended June 30, 2024
Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)
% changeExplanation
Property$(13.8)(22.3)%
Same trends as noted for Q2 2024. This resulted in a change in business mix for Property, with Commercial and Personal accounting for 53% and 47%, respectively, of total Property compared to 46% and 53%, respectively, for the same period in 2023.
Casualty$11.46.5%
The increase was due to growth in the General Liability and Motor Liability classes of business as noted for Q2 2024, coupled with an overall net increase in Multi-Line class, driven mainly by growth in our Syndicate 3456. The growth in Motor Liability class is predominantly from new excess of loss treaties.

The above growth was partially offset by revision to estimated ultimate gross premiums for certain 2023 and 2024 FAL treaties and by lower premiums for Professional and Workers’ Compensation classes of business.

General Liability and Multi-line classes accounted for 30% and 61%, respectively, of total Casualty, compared to 27% and 60%, respectively, in the same period in 2023.
Other$47.245.4%
Same trends as noted for Q2 2024.

Premiums Ceded
 
For Q2 2024, premiums ceded were $14.8 million, or 8.8% of gross premiums written, compared to $9.7 million, or 6.3% of gross premiums written, for the same quarter in 2023. For YTD 2024, premiums ceded were $38.0 million, or 9.8% of gross premiums written, compared to $21.0 million, or 6.1% of gross premiums written, for YTD 2023.

The increase in both periods was primarily due to the purchase of an additional retrocessional coverage to manage our overall exposure to Marine and Energy class in light of recent growth in this class of business and to reinstate certain retro excess of loss treaties in which the full coverage was presumed exhausted primarily from the Baltimore bridge loss event. Additionally, we had an increase in quota share retrocessions for Other Specialty business due to growth from inward premiums.

For Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, net premiums written increased by $8.9 million, or 6.2%, and $27.8 million or 8.7%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023. The movement in net premiums written resulted from the changes in gross premiums written and ceded during the periods as previously noted.

Net premiums earned for Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, increased by $18.5 million or 13.2%, and by $37.3 million or 13.2%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 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 with the mix of business written in the form of excess of loss versus proportional contracts. For Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, excess of loss treaties accounted for 16% and 15% of the total net premiums earned, respectively, compared to 14% and 13% for Q2 2023 and YTD 2023, respectively.

For Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, our total loss ratio improved by 0.3 and 0.2 percentage points, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023.
Current accident year loss ratio increased by 1.4 percentage points for Q2 2024, compared to the same quarter in 2023 driven mainly by 1.3 points increase in CAT losses. This increase was driven predominantly by the severe U.S. tornados (including convective storms).
Current accident year loss ratio increased by 3.2 percentage points for YTD 2024, compared to the same period in 2023, driven by 2.2 points increase in CAT loss events, mainly due to the Baltimore bridge loss and the severe U.S. tornados. While we have not renewed a U.S. homeowners’ property program in 2024, we wrote and earned premiums from the 2023 quota share treaty during 2024.
For the current quarter, we had prior year favorable loss development of 0.4%, compared to adverse loss development of 1.3% for the same quarter in 2023. For YTD 2024, our prior year adverse loss development improved by 3.4 percentage points compared to the same period in 2023. Refer to Note 7 for further details on prior year loss development.

Net Losses Incurred
Three months ended June 30, 2024
Increase (decrease)
($ in millions)
Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points 
Property$(0.2)13.7
The marginal decrease in losses incurred was driven by the 12.7% decrease in net premiums earned, offset partially by an increase of $0.3 million in current CAT losses mainly from U.S. tornados and to a lesser extent from German floods.

The increase in loss ratio points is driven mainly by the higher attritional and CAT losses from a U.S. homeowners’ property program which was non-renewed in 2024.
Casualty$9.07.1
Driven by the 5.8% increase in net premiums earned, coupled with an increase in prior year adverse loss development, which contributed 7.1 percentage points to the loss ratio. This was predominantly driven by our legacy Multiline and Workers’ Compensation exposures.
Other$2.8(10.4)
Driven by the 43.4% increase in net premiums earned, offset partially by favorable prior year loss development, mainly in our Mortgage and Marine and Energy classes of business. This contributed 16.8 percentage points to the reduction in the loss ratio. However, offsetting this benefit, our current attritional loss ratio increased for the Marine class in 2024 compared 2023.

Increase / (decrease) in loss ratio points 
Property$(5.8)(18.7)
Despite the 5.0% increase in net premiums earned, the losses incurred and loss ratio decreased predominantly due to the 16.6 percentage points decrease in property-related CAT losses compared to YTD 2023.
Casualty$8.0(1.2)
The increase in losses incurred was driven by the 5.8% increase in net premiums earned.

The improvement in loss ratio was driven by lower prior year adverse loss development, which contributed 4.3 percentage points. This was primarily driven from significant adverse loss development in our legacy Motor class in 2023, whereas we had favorable loss development for this class in 2024.
Other$22.012.5
The increase in losses incurred was driven by the 26.0% increase in net premiums earned, coupled with higher CAT losses.

The current year CAT losses contributed 14.5 percentage points to the total loss ratio, which was driven by the Baltimore bridge collapse and satellite failures. The change in business mix also contributed to the increase in loss ratio. This was partially offset by 6.4 percentage points from prior year favorable loss development, primarily in our Mortgage and Marine and Energy classes of business.

Acquisition Costs, Net

For Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, our total acquisition costs increased by 31.8% to $50.5 million, and by 15.4% to $92.1 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023, mainly due to growth in net premiums earned and higher commissions, predominantly in our Casualty and Other lines of business. The acquisition cost ratios by line of business were as follows:

Change in Acquisition Cost Ratios
Three months ended June 30, 2024
 Increase / (decrease) in acquisition cost ratio pointsExplanation
Property(8.4)
The decrease was driven by the change in business mix as a result of not renewing a U.S. homeowner’s program that had a higher acquisition cost ratio compared to the increase in net premiums earned from CAT retro quota share treaties at lower acquisition costs.
Casualty6.4
The increase was driven primarily due to higher than previously estimated acquisition costs for certain 2023 and 2024 FAL business within our Multi-line class. This was partially offset by a change in business mix, particularly with growth in net premiums earned from General Liability and Motor Liability classes of business at lower acquisition costs.
Other5.9
The increase was driven primarily by the prior year favorable loss reserve releases during the quarter for certain mortgage programs within our Financial class, which resulted in higher performance-based commission costs. There was no comparable favorable loss reserves release for this business in Q2 2023, which would have triggered additional commission costs.

Combined ratio99.8 %96.2 %

Our combined ratio increased by 3.6 percentage points for the current quarter compared to Q2 2023 predominantly due to higher acquisition cost ratio; partially offset by a decrease in loss ratio and underwriting expense ratio. The underwriting expense ratio improved as a result of higher volume of net premium earned to cover underwriting expenses and, to a lesser extent, a net gain from deposit-accounted contracts as a result of a favorable commutation during the quarter.

Our combined ratio increased by 0.9 percentage points for YTD 2024 compared to same period in 2023 predominantly due to higher acquisition cost ratio and underwriting expense ratio (see G&A Expenses below for further details); partially offset by a decrease in loss ratio.

General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses

The breakdown of our G&A expenses between underwriting and corporate functions was as follows:
Three months ended June 30Six months ended June 30
2024202320242023
Underwriting expenses$5,811 $5,468 $12,150 $9,407

General and administrative expenses$10,517 $10,025 $21,231 $19,961 
G&A increased by 4.9% for Q2 2024, compared to Q2 2023. The increase was driven by:

Underwriting expenses: Increased by $0.3 million or 6.3%, 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. Further, Q2 2023 included a bad debt charge of $0.6 million, with no similar charge during Q2 2024.

Corporate expenses: No significant change for the quarter.
34


G&A increased by 6.4% for YTD 2024, compared to same period in 2023. The increase was driven by:

Underwriting expenses: Increased by $2.7 million or 29.2%, 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, this contributed to the net increase in underwriting expense ratio in the YTD 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Corporate expenses: Decreased by $1.5 million or 14.0%, driven mainly by non-recurring severance costs included in YTD 2023 and lower outside legal costs following the hiring of our new General Counsel in April 2023.

Net investment-related income

Our net investment-related income decreased by 8.2% compared to Q2 2023, and by 4.6% compared to YTD 2023, mainly driven by the decrease in interest income earned from restricted cash and cash equivalents as a result of decreases in the outstanding collateral balance during both periods.

Share of Solasglas’ net income

For Q2 2024 and YTD 2024, Solasglas reported a gain of 1.2% and 6.4%, respectively, compared to a gain of 10.9% and 9.7% for Q2 2023 and YTD 2023, respectively. The following table provides a breakdown of the gross and net investment return for Solasglas.

For Q2 2024, the significant contributors to Solasglas’ investment return were long positions in Solvay (Belgium: SOLB), HP (HPQ), and Kyndryl Holdings (KD). The largest detractors were long positions in Brighthouse Financial (BHF), Green Brick Partners (GRBK), and a single-name short position.

For YTD 2024, the significant contributors to Solasglas’ investment return were long positions in GRBK, gold, and Tenet Healthcare (THC). The largest detractors were a long position in BHF and two single-name short positions.

At June 30, 2024, our total investments increased by $92.4 million, or 27.8%, to $424.6 million from December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by $70.0 million of additional contributions into Solasglas, coupled with the net investment return for Q2 2024. The contributions were funded partially from cash flow from operations and partially from the release of restricted cash.

Investments in Solasglas

DME Advisors reports the composition of Solasglas’ 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 Solasglas’ investments:

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 June 30, 2024, Solasglas’ exposure to gold on a delta-adjusted basis was 7.5% (2023: 11.2%).

At June 30, 2024, 94.3% of Solasglas’ portfolio was valued based on quoted prices in actively traded markets (Level 1), 4.1% 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 June 30, 2024, 1.6% of Solasglas’ portfolio consisted of private equity funds valued using the funds’ net asset values as a practical expedient.

36

Other Investments

The other investment holdings relate to private investments made by Innovations. During Q2 2024, we made two modest private equity investments. During the YTD 2024, we impaired certain debt securities (see Note 4), resulting in a decrease in the carrying value of these securities.

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 $42.7 million, or 7.1%, from $604.6 million at December 31, 2023, to $561.9 million at June 30, 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 $67.3 million, or 10.9%, to $686.7 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 bound during 2024.

Total$210,802 $541,955 $752,757 $189,050 $472,504 $661,554 

Our total gross loss and LAE reserves increased by $91.2 million, or 13.8%, to $752.8 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 treaties and new business, offset partially by paid losses during Q2 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 $33.0 million, or 128.3%, to $58.6 million from $25.7 million at December 31, 2023. This increase was driven mainly by the loss recoveries on the Baltimore bridge loss event, the Taiwan earthquake (gross losses were mostly retroceded), and the increase in quota share retrocessions for Other Specialty business due to growth from inward premiums. See Note 8 “Retrocession” of the financial statements for a description of the credit risk associated with our retrocessionaires.

Probable Maximum Loss (“PML”)

At July 1, 2024, our estimated largest PML at a 1-in-250-year return period for a single event, and in aggregate, was $99.9 million and $109.2 million, respectively, both relating to the peril of North Atlantic Hurricane, compared to $103.3 million and $111.5 million, respectively, at April 1, 2024.

Total shareholders’ equity
 
Total shareholders’ equity increased by $37.9 million to $634.0 million, compared to $596.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the net income of $35.0 million reported for the period.

Cash, end of period$614,170 $683,331 
(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 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 Solasglas where we made a net contribution of $70.0 million for YTD 2024 compared to a net contribution of $9.0 million during the same period in 2023.

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 the first half of 2023. In Q2 2024, we partially repaid $11.7 million of the Term loans.

Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our debt and capital structure:

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 shareholders’ equity increased in YTD 2024 primarily due to net income for the period.

39

Ordinary Shares

At June 30, 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 six months ended June 30, 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 renewed our $200.0 million shelf registration by filing the Form S-3 registration statement with the SEC, which became effective on July 5, 2024, and will expire on July 1, 2027.  

Secured LOC Facilities

    As disclosed in Note 9 “Debt and Credit Facilities” of Q2 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.

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 June 30, 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 Q2 2024 Financials.

Item 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Refer to Item 7A included in our 2023 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to this item since December 31, 2023.

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 June 30, 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 June 30, 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 June 30, 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.

42

During the three months ended June 30, 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, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
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 were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies subsequent to 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 and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a reduction in unrealized loss of $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the above derivatives to a nominal value at June 30, 2024, 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. There were no derivative financial instruments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value
At June 30, 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 June 30, 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 six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized total CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $35.2 million. Current year CAT loss events were $25.7 million, driven mainly by the Baltimore bridge collapse, the U.S. tornados (including severe convective storms), satellite failures, and a Mexican state-owned oil platform fire. Additionally, the Company incurred $9.4 million of net adverse prior year CAT loss development relating primarily to severe weather affecting U.S. homeowners’ property coverage (2021-2023 underwriting years).

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized total CAT loss, net of reinsurance, of $19.6 million. Current year CAT loss events were $16.4 million, driven mainly by the Turkey earthquake, New Zealand Cyclone
Gabrielle and the U.S. tornados, coupled with $3.2 million net adverse prior year CAT loss development mainly relating to the 2022 Winter Storm Elliott.


Prior Year Reserve Development

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company experienced $4.7 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was composed of $19.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly for the above prior year CAT loss events, coupled with additional losses reported on general liability contracts (mostly 2014-2017 underwriting years) and legacy quota share workers’ compensation treaties (mostly 2017-2021 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends. The reserve increases were partially offset by $14.8 million favorable loss development predominantly from mortgage contracts (various underwriting years), multi-line commercial treaties (mostly 2020 underwriting year), Funds at Lloyd’s (“FAL”) (2023 underwriting year), and other specialty business (mostly 2020-2022 underwriting years).

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company experienced $13.8 million in net adverse development on prior year loss and LAE reserves. This was comprised of $21.5 million of reserve strengthening predominantly on casualty contracts (mostly 2018, 2019 and 2021 underwriting years) and property contracts (mostly 2020 and 2021 underwriting years) due to current economic and social inflation trends, coupled with adverse CAT loss development on U.S. homeowners’ property business relating to Winter Storm Elliott (2022 underwriting year). This was partially offset by $7.7 million better than expected loss emergence predominantly from other property catastrophe events (mostly 2019, 2021 and 2022 underwriting years).

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, Solasglas reduced its exposure to GRBK and as of July 31, 2024 held 1.3 million shares of GRBK.

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 Solasglas 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 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 was no material change to the Company’s operating lease agreements subsequent to 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.
