In connection with the preparation of this third quarter Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Ambac’s management, with the participation of Ambac’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of Ambac’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on its evaluation, Ambac’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, Ambac’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Under guidelines established by the SEC, companies are permitted to exclude certain acquisitions from their first assessment of internal control over financial reporting following the date of acquisition. Based on those guidelines, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of Ambac Financial Group Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting at September 30, 2024 excluded certain processes of Beat Capital Partners Limited which were not integrated into the Company’s existing internal control over financial reporting environment at September 30, 2024. The excluded Beat Capital Partners Limited processes represented approximately 1% of the Company’s total assets and 1% of the Company’s total liabilities at September 30, 2024 and approximately 2% of the Company’s total revenue and 3% of the Company's total expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
