Tiptree’s common stock trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TIPT.” Tiptree is a holding company that allocates capital across a broad spectrum of businesses, assets and other investments. We classify our business intotwo reportable segments: Insurance and Mortgage. We refer to our non-insurance operations, assets and other investments, which is comprised of our Mortgage reportable segment and our non-reportable segments and other business activities, as Tiptree Capital.

As of September 30, 2025, Fortegra was owned approximately 78.9% by Tiptree Holdings,17.6% by Warburg and 3.5% by management and directors of Fortegra, before giving effect to the exercise of outstanding warrants and management options, and the conversion of outstanding preferred stock. See Note (15) Stockholders' Equity for additional information.

On September 26, 2025, Tiptree entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with DB Insurance Co., Ltd., incorporated and existing under the laws of the Republic of Korea (“Purchaser”), and Fortegra, a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of Tiptree. A subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”) to be incorporated in Delaware following the date of the Merger Agreement and prior to the closing of the merger (the “Closing”) will, upon its formation, execute a joinder to the Merger Agreement and thereby become a party thereto.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will acquire Fortegra for a purchase price of $1.65 billion in cash (subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement) and Merger Sub will merge with and into Fortegra, with Fortegra being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”), and as a result of which Purchaser shall be the sole stockholder of Fortegra. The purchase price will be reduced by certain categories of payments made by Fortegra after June 30, 2025 and at or prior to the Closing (“Leakage”), except for certain categories of agreed permitted Leakage (“Permitted Leakage”). Leakage includes payments for, among other categories, specified transaction expenses, certain dividends or distributions to related parties, payments to related parties for equity or securities redemptions, returns of capital, and other specified categories of payments or liabilities. Permitted Leakage includes payments reserved for in the financial statements of Fortegra, requested or consented to by Purchaser, and other specified categories of payments or liabilities. Purchaser’s recovery for Leakage that is not adjusted for at the Closing is limited to a leakage reserve holdback account. If the Closing has not occurred on or before June 1, 2026, the $1.65 billion purchase price will be increased by a profit sharing fee which shall accrue on such price from June 1, 2026 through the Closing at a rate of 10% per annum.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties made by each of the parties. The parties have also agreed to various covenants in the Merger Agreement, including agreements by Fortegra to conduct its business in the ordinary course of business in all material respects and in compliance with applicable law and to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve substantially intact its present business organization and significant business relationships and goodwill.

Tiptree is also subject to customary “no-shop” restrictions on its ability to solicit acquisition proposals from third parties (including acquisition proposals relating to the sale of all or a significant portion of Fortegra or its assets) and to provide information to, and participate in discussions and engage in negotiations with, third parties regarding any acquisition proposals. Tiptree may, under certain specified circumstances, provide information to, and participate in discussions and engage in negotiations with, third parties with respect to an acquisition proposal if the board of directors of Tiptree has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) that such alternative acquisition proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to or result in a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement). If the board of directors of Tiptree has determined in good faith (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors) that an acquisition proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, then Tiptree may terminate the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, subject to compliance with the procedures specified in the Merger Agreement and payment of a termination fee of$49,500. The Merger Agreement also provides that Tiptree will call a special stockholder meeting and take customary steps, including mailing a proxy statement to Tiptree’s stockholders, in order to obtain stockholder approval of the Merger.

The Merger is anticipated to close in mid-2026. The Closing is subject to certain conditions, including (i) Tiptree stockholder approval, (ii) Fortegra stockholder approval, (iii) regulatory approval, including certain Form A filings and other insurance regulatory approvals in certain foreign jurisdictions, clearance by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States and the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, (iv) the continued accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties (subject to specified materiality standards), (v) performance of each party’s obligations under the Merger Agreement in all material respects and (vi) the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to Fortegra.

(8)Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging

The Company selectively utilizes derivative financial instruments as part of its overall investment and hedging activities. Derivative contracts are subject to additional risk that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The Company’s derivative activities are primarily to manage underlying credit risk, market risk, interest rate risk and currency exchange rate risk. In addition, the Company is also subject to counterparty risk should its counterparties fail to meet the contract terms. Derivative assets are reported in other investments. Derivative liabilities are reported within other liabilities and accrued expenses. Derivatives for our mortgage business are primarily comprised of interest rate lock commitments (IRLCs), forward delivery contracts, and TBA mortgage-backed securities.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

The fair value of these instruments is based upon valuation pricing models, which represent the amount the Company would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date to exit the position. Our mortgage origination subsidiary issues IRLCs to their customers, which are carried at estimated fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair values of these commitments are generally calculated by reference to the value of the underlying loan associated with the IRLC net of costs to produce and an expected pull through assumption. The fair values of these commitments generally fall under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Forward Delivery Contracts and TBA Mortgage-Backed Securities

Our mortgage origination subsidiary manages their exposure by entering into forward delivery commitments with loan investors. For loans not locked with investors under a forward delivery commitment, the Company enters into hedge instruments, primarily TBAs, to protect against movements in interest rates. The fair values of TBA mortgage-backed securities and forward delivery contracts generally fall under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The remaining derivatives are generally comprised of a combination of swaps, currency forwards and options, which are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the Fortegra Additional Warrant (Warburg) is a derivative liability and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (15) Stockholders' Equity for additional information regarding the Fortegra Additional Warrant.

(10)Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible to measure a financial instrument’s fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, and are affected by the type of product, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, as well as current market conditions. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Fair value is estimated by applying the hierarchy discussed in Note (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s fair value measurements are based primarily on a market approach, which utilizes prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable financial instruments. Sources of inputs to the market approach include third-party pricing services, independent broker quotations and pricing matrices. Management analyzes the third-party valuation methodologies and its related inputs to perform assessments to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy and to assess reliability of values. Further, management has a process in place to review all changes in fair value that occurred during each measurement period. Any discrepancies or unusual observations are followed through to resolution through the source of the pricing as well as utilizing comparisons, if applicable, to alternate pricing sources.

The Company utilizes observable and unobservable inputs within its valuation methodologies. Observable inputs may include: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. In addition, specific issuer information and other market data is used. Broker quotes are obtained from sources recognized to be market participants. Unobservable inputs may include: expected cash flow streams, default rates, supply and demand considerations and market volatility.

Available for Sale Securities, at fair value

The fair values of AFS securities are based on prices provided by an independent pricing service and a third-party investment manager. The Company obtains an understanding of the methods, models and inputs used by the independent pricing service and the third-party investment manager by analyzing the investment manager-provided pricing report.

The following details the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of AFS securities and the applicable level each security falls within the fair value hierarchy:

U.S. Treasury Securities, Obligations of U.S. Government Authorities and Agencies, Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions, Corporate Securities, Asset Backed Securities, and Obligations of Foreign Governments: Fair values were obtained from an independent pricing service and a third-party investment manager. The prices provided by the independent pricing service and third-party investment manager are based on quoted market prices, when available, non-binding broker quotes, or matrix pricing and fall under Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Certificates of Deposit: The estimated fair value of certificates of deposit approximate carrying value and fall under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities

The fair values of publicly traded common and preferred equity securities and exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) are obtained from market value quotations provided by an independent pricing service and fall under Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of non-publicly traded common and preferred stocks are based on prices derived from multiples of comparable public companies and fall under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Loans, at fair value

Corporate Loans: These loans are comprised of middle market loans and bank loans and are generally classified under either Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. To determine fair value, the Company uses quoted prices, including those provided from pricing vendors, which provide coverage of secondary market participants, where available. The values represent a composite of mark-to-market bid/offer prices. In certain circumstances, the Company will make its own determination of fair value of loans based on internal models and other unobservable inputs.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are generally classified under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is based upon forward sales contracts with third-party investors, including estimated loan costs.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities

Derivatives for our mortgage business are primarily comprised of IRLCs, forward delivery contracts and TBA mortgage-backed securities. The fair value of these instruments is based upon valuation pricing models, which represent the amount the Company would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date to exit the position. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries issue IRLCs to their customers, which are carried at estimated fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair values of these commitments are generally calculated by reference to the value of the underlying loan associated with the IRLC net of costs to produce and an expected pull through assumption. The fair values of these commitments generally fall under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Our mortgage origination subsidiaries manage their exposure by entering into forward delivery commitments with loan investors. For loans not locked with investors under a forward delivery commitment, the Company enters into hedge instruments, primarily TBAs, to protect against movements in interest rates. The fair values of TBA mortgage-backed securities and forward delivery contracts generally fall under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The remaining derivatives are generally comprised of a combination of swaps, currency forwards and options, which are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the Fortegra Additional Warrants (Warburg) are a derivative liability and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (15) Stockholders' Equity for additional information regarding the Fortegra Additional Warrants.

Corporate Bonds

Corporate bonds are generally classified under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is based on quoted market prices. We perform internal price verification procedures to ensure that the prices provided are reasonable.

Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased

Securities sold, not yet purchased are generally classified under Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based on the leveling of the securities sold short, and fair value is provided by a third-party investment manager, based on quoted market prices. We perform internal price verification procedures monthly to ensure that the prices provided are reasonable.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Mortgage servicing rights are classified under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy and fair value is provided by a third-party valuation service. Various observable and unobservable inputs are used to determine fair value, including discount rate, cost to service and weighted average prepayment speed.

The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchies for financial assets and liabilities, measured on a recurring basis:

(1)

Included in other assets. See Note (13) Other Assets and Other Liabilities and Accrued Expenses.

Debentures: Since interest rates on debentures are at current market rates for similar credit risks, the carrying amount approximates fair value. These values are net of allowance for doubtful accounts. See Note (4) Investments.

Notes Receivable, net: To the extent that carrying amounts differ from fair value, fair value is determined based on contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for similar credits. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (5) Notes and Accounts Receivable, net.

Debt: The carrying value, which approximates fair value of floating rate debt, represents the total debt balance at face value excluding the unamortized discount. The fair value of the Junior subordinated notes is determined based on dealer quotes. Categorized under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Additionally, the following financial assets and liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are not carried at fair value, but whose carrying amounts approximate their fair value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Categorized under Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Accounts and Premiums Receivable, net, Retrospective Commissions Receivable and Other Receivables: The carrying amounts approximate fair value since no interest rate is charged on these short duration assets. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note (5) Notes and Accounts Receivable, net.

Due from Brokers, Dealers, and Trustees and Due to Brokers, Dealers and Trustees: The carrying amounts are included in other assets and other liabilities and accrued expenses and approximate their fair value due to their short term nature. Categorized under Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

(11) Liability for Unpaid Claims and Claim Adjustment Expenses

Roll forward of Claim Liability

The following table presents the activity in the net liability for unpaid losses and allocated loss adjustment expenses of short duration contracts for the following periods:

The following schedule reconciles the total amount of losses incurred on short duration contracts per the table above to the amount of total losses incurred as presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, excluding the amount for member benefit claims:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company experienced favorable prior year development of$7,106, primarily driven by lower-than-expected losses in its commercial and personal property lines of business.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company experienced unfavorable prior year development of$646, primarily driven by higher-than expected claims paid development in our commercial lines of business.

Management considers the prior year development for each of these years to be insignificant when considered in the context of our annual earned premiums, net as well as our net losses and loss adjustment expenses and member benefit claims expenses. We analyze our development on a quarterly basis and given the short duration nature of our products, favorable or adverse development emerges quickly and allows for timely reserve strengthening, if necessary, or modifications to our product pricing or offerings.

The favorable prior year development of$7,106 in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 represented 4.4% of our insurance business income before taxes of$160,421 and 1.1% of the opening net liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses of$658,210, as of January 1, 2025.

The unfavorable prior year development of$646 in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 represented 0.5% of our insurance business income before taxes of$135,270 and 0.2% of the opening net liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses of$393,455, as of January 1, 2024.

Based upon our internal analysis and our review of the statement of actuarial opinions provided by our actuarial consultants, we believe that the amounts recorded for policy liabilities and unpaid claims reasonably represent the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.

(12) Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company’s revenues from insurance and contractual and liability insurance operations are primarily accounted for under Financial Services-Insurance (ASC 944) that are not within the scope of Revenue for Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The Company’s remaining revenues that are within the scope of ASC 606 are primarily comprised of revenues from contracts with customers for monthly membership dues for motor clubs, monthly administration fees for services provided for premiums, claims and reinsurance processing revenues, vehicle service contracts, vessel related revenue and revenues for household goods and appliances service contracts (collectively, remaining contracts).

The following table presents the disaggregated amounts of revenue from contracts with customers by product type for the following periods:

Service and Administrative Fees

Service and administrative fees are generated from non-insurance programs including warranty service contracts, motor clubs and other services. Service and administrative fees are recognized consistent with the earnings recognition pattern of the underlying policies, debt cancellation contracts and motor club memberships being administered, using pro rata, Rule of 78’s, modified Rule of 78’s, or other methods as appropriate for the contract. Management selects the appropriate method based on available information, and periodically reviews the selections as additional information becomes available.

Management reviews the financial results under each significant contract on a monthly basis. Any losses that may occur due to a specific contract would be recognized in the period in which the loss is determined to be probable.

We do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. The transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected duration exceeding one year was not material as of September 30, 2025.

The timing of our revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by our customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and we have an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, we record deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied.

The following table presents the activity in the deferred assets and liabilities related to revenue from contracts with customers for the following period:

For the periods presented, no write-offs for unrec overable deferred acquisition costs and deferred revenue were recognized.

(15) Stockholders' Equity

Stock Repurchases

The Board of Directors authorized the Company to make repurchases of up to $20,000 of shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock in the aggregate, at the discretion of the Company’s Executive Committee. There wereno shares repurchased during thenine months ended September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the remaining repurchase authorization was $11,945.

Dividends

The Company declared cash dividends per share for the following periods presented below:

Fortegra Non-Controlling Interests

On June 21, 2022, the Company closed the WP Transaction. On that date, Fortegra converted to a Delaware corporation and Warburg made a $200,000 investment in Fortegra in exchange for Fortegra Common Stock, Fortegra Preferred Stock, Fortegra Warrants and Fortegra Additional Warrants. Also, in connection with the closing of the WP Transaction, Tiptree was issued Fortegra Additional Warrants, and management’s interests in LOTS Intermediate were exchanged for interests in Fortegra.

In March and April 2024, Tiptree, Warburg and Fortegra independent directors contributed $30,044, $9,889 and $67, respectively, to Fortegra in exchange for Fortegra Common Stock. As of September 30, 2025, Fortegra was owned approximately 78.9% by Tiptree Holdings,17.6% by Warburg and 3.5% by management and directors of Fortegra before giving effect to the exercise of outstanding warrants and management options and the conversion of outstanding preferred stock.

Fortegra Preferred Stock

The face amount of the Fortegra Preferred Stock is $80,000. Dividends are cumulative and accrue at a rate of 8% per annum, compounding quarterly. Any quarterly dividend may be paid in cash, at Fortegra’s option. For thenine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, cash dividends declared were$4,787 and$4,804, respectively.

Warburg has the option to convert, at any time, its shares of Fortegra Preferred Stock into shares of Fortegra Common Stock at an initial conversion premium of 33% to Warburg’s initial investment valuation (the “Fortegra Preferred Stock Conversion Price”). The Fortegra Preferred Stock Conversion Price is adjusted for any Fortegra Common Stock splits, dividends, extraordinary dividends and similar transactions. All of the Fortegra Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of Fortegra Common Stock at the Fortegra Preferred Stock Conversion Price upon the closing of a qualifying initial public offering, subject to a five year make-whole provision. Upon conversion, the Fortegra Preferred Stock would result in Warburg owning an additional 6.3% interest in Fortegra, for a total as converted ownership of 24.0% (including its ownership of Fortegra Common Stock).

Fortegra Warrants

The Fortegra Warrants have aseven-year term and an exercise premium of 33% to Warburg’s initial investment valuation (the “Fortegra Warrant Exercise Price”). The Fortegra Warrant Exercise Price will be reduced by any Fortegra Common Stock cash dividends made by Fortegra and adjusted for stock splits, common stock dividends, extraordinary dividends and similar transactions. The Fortegra Warrants, if exercised with cash, would result in Warburg owning an additional 3.7% interest in Fortegra.

Fortegra Additional Warrants

The Fortegra Additional Warrants issued to both Warburg and Tiptree have a seven-year term and an exercise price of $0.01 per share of Fortegra Common Stock. The Fortegra Additional Warrants issued to Warburg will be forfeited based on Warburg achieving an all-in return on its investment in excess of 23%, as measured primarily by Fortegra’s Common Stock price. The Fortegra Additional Warrants issued to Warburg are classified as liabilities, at fair value. The Fortegra Additional Warrants issued to Tiptree will vest based on Warburg achieving an all-in return on its investment in excess of 30%, as measured primarily by Fortegra’s Common Stock price.

Thenumber of shares of Fortegra Common Stock issuable to Warburg or Tiptree with respect to the Fortegra Additional Warrants is subject to adjustment for Fortegra Common Stock splits, stock or cash dividends and similar transactions. The Fortegra Additional Warrants are exercisable from the earlier of a transaction that results in Warburg having sold 50% of its Fortegra Common Stock or the fifth anniversary of the closing date. The maximum number of shares issued to Warburg or Tiptree, if exercised with cash, would be an additional 1.7% interest in Fortegra on an as converted basis (including its ownership of Fortegra Common and Preferred Stock). As of September 30, 2025, the estimated fair value of the Fortegra Additional Warrants (WP) was $28,518 based on the expected Merger proceeds and estimated closing date in 2026.

The following table presents the components of non-controlling interests as reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Statutory Reporting and Insurance Company Subsidiaries Dividend Restrictions

The Company’s U.S. insurance subsidiaries prepare financial statements in accordance with Statutory Accounting Principles (SAP) prescribed or permitted by the insurance departments of their states of domicile. Prescribed SAP includes the Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual of the NAIC as well as state laws, regulations and administrative rules.

Statutory Capital and Surplus

The Company’s insurance company subsidiaries must maintain minimum amounts of statutory capital and surplus as required by regulatory authorities, including the NAIC; their capital and surplus levels exceeded respective minimum requirements as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Under the NAIC Risk-Based Capital Act of 1995, a company’s Risk-Based Capital (RBC) is calculated by applying certain risk factors to various asset, claim and reserve items. If a company's adjusted surplus falls below calculated RBC thresholds, regulatory intervention or oversight is required. The Company’s U.S. domiciled insurance company subsidiaries' RBC levels, as calculated in accordance with the NAIC’s RBC instructions, exceeded all RBC thresholds as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The Company also has a foreign insurance subsidiary that is not subject to SAP. The statutory capital and surplus amounts and statutory net income presented above do not include the foreign insurance subsidiary in accordance with SAP.

Statutory Dividends

The Company’s U.S. domiciled insurance company subsidiaries may pay dividends to the Company, subject to statutory restrictions. Payments in excess of statutory restrictions (extraordinary dividends) to the Company are permitted only with prior approval of the insurance department of the applicable state of domicile. The Company eliminates all dividends from its subsidiaries in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

There wereno dividends paid to the Company by its U.S. domiciled insurance company subsidiaries for thenine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The combined amount available for ordinary dividends of the Company's U.S. domiciled insurance company subsidiaries for the following periods:

The following table presents the dividends paid to the Company by its insurance company subsidiaries for the following periods:

At September 30, 2025, the maximum amount of dividends that our U.S. domiciled insurance company subsidiaries could pay under applicable laws and regulations without regulatory approval was approximately$71,030. The Company may seek regulatory approval to pay dividends in excess of this permitted amount, but there can be no assurance that the Company would receive regulatory approval if sought.

(17) Stock Based Compensation

Tiptree Equity Plans

The table below summarizes changes to the issuances under the Company’s 2017 Omnibus Incentive Equity Plan for the periods indicated, excluding awards granted under the Company’s subsidiary incentive plans that are exchangeable for Tiptree common stock:

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and Stock Awards

The Company values RSUs at their grant-date fair value as measured by Tiptree’s common stock price. Generally, the Tiptree RSUs vest and become non-forfeitable either (i) after the third anniversary, or (ii) with respect to one-third of Tiptree shares granted on each of the first, second and third year anniversaries of the grant date. RSU awards are expensed using the straight-line method over the requisite service period. The RSUs include a retirement provision and are amortized over the lesser of the service condition or expected retirement date.

Stock awards issued as director compensation are deemed to be granted and immediately vested upon issuance. On February 25, 2025, the Company issued Messrs. Barnes and Ilany 60,813 and 151,778 shares of the Company's common stock, respectively, as part of their compensation for 2024 performance.

The following table presents changes to the issuances of RSUs under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Equity Plan for the periods indicated:

(1)

Includes 76,930,70,866 and 70,222 shares that vest in 2026, 2027 and 2028, respectively.

The following tables present the detail of the granted and vested RSUs and Stock Awards for the periods indicated:

Tiptree Senior Management Incentive Plan

On August 4, 2021, a total of 3,500,000 Performance Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs) were awarded to members of the Company’s senior management. An additional 350,000 PRSUs were awarded on October 14, 2022. The PRSUs have a 10-year term and are subject to the recipient’s continuous service and a market requirement. A portion of the PRSUs will generally vest upon the achievement of each offive Tiptree share price target milestones ranging from $15 to $60, adjusted for dividends paid, within five pre-established determination periods (subject to a catch-up vesting mechanism) occurring on the second, fourth, sixth, eighth and tenth anniversaries of the grant date. In November 2021 and October 2024, the first and second tranches of the PRSUs vested, resulting in a net issuance of 215,583 and 462,766 shares, respectively, of Tiptree common stock.

On January 1, 2024, Tiptree granted 1,420,833 PRSUs to members of the Company’s senior management. The PRSUs will generally vest upon achievement of a $70 Tiptree share price target (adjusted for dividends paid) prior to the tenth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the Grantee’s continued employment with Tiptree.

As of September 30, 2025, 4,520,833 PRSUs were unvested. The below table illustrates the aggregate number of PRSUs that will vest upon the achievement of each Tiptree share price target. Such price targets are adjusted down for cumulative dividends paid by the Company since grant (e.g., the next share price target is $28.89 as adjusted for cumulative dividends paid to date).

Upon vesting, the Company will issue shares, or if shares are not available under the 2017 Equity Plan, then the Company may in its sole discretion instead deliver cash equal to the fair market value of the underlying shares. The fair value of the PRSUs was estimated using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula embedded within a Monte Carlo model used to simulate the future stock prices of the Company, which assumes that the market requirement is achieved. The historical volatility was computed based on historical daily returns of the Company’s stock price simulated over the performance period using a lookback period of 10 years. The valuation was done under a risk-neutral framework using the 10-year zero-coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve on the reporting date. The quarterly dividend rates in effect as of the reporting date are used to calculate a spot dividend yield for use in the model.

The following table presents the assumptions used to measure the fair value of the PRSUs as of the respective grant date, or June 7, 2022, when the original tranches were converted to equity awards.

Stock Option Awards

Between 2016 and 2020, option awards were granted to the Executive Committee with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The option awards have a 10-year term and are subject to the recipient’s continuous service, a market requirement, and vest one third on each of thethree, four, andfive-year anniversaries of the grant date. As of September 30, 2025, the market requirement for all outstanding options has been achieved. There wereno stock option awards granted from 2021 to September 30, 2025.

The following table presents the Company’s stock option activity for the current period:

Subsidiary Equity Plans

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have established incentive plans under which they are authorized to issue equity of those subsidiaries to certain of their employees. Such awards are accounted for as equity unless otherwise noted. These awards are subject to performance-vesting criteria based on the performance of the subsidiary (performance vesting awards) and time-vesting subject to continued employment (time vesting awards). The Company has the option, but not the obligation to settle the exchange right in cash.

Fortegra Equity Incentive Plan

Fortegra adopted the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (“Fortegra Plan”) on June 21, 2022, and further amended on January 18, 2024, which permits the grant of RSUs, stock based awards and options up to 11.0% of Fortegra Common Stock (assuming conversion of the Fortegra Preferred Stock), of which the substantial majority is expected to be delivered in options. The general purpose of the Fortegra Plan is to attract, motivate and retain selected employees of Fortegra, to provide them with incentives and rewards for performance and to better align their interests with those of Fortegra’s stockholders. Unless otherwise extended, the Fortegra Plan terminates automatically on June 21, 2032. The awards under the Fortegra Plan are not exchangeable for Tiptree common stock.

As of September 30, 2025, unvested time vesting RSUs represented 0.2% and unvested time and performance vesting options represented 3.5% of Fortegra Common Stock (in each case, assuming conversion of the Fortegra Preferred Stock). The RSUs include a retirement provision and are amortized over the lesser of the service condition or expected retirement date. The time vested options vest in equal parts over five years with the first tranche vested and exercised in 2024. The performance vested options vest based on specific internal rate of return targets determined at the time of a change of control of Fortegra or sale by Warburg of more than 50% of its Fortegra securities (on an as converted basis) acquired in 2022. A majority of these time and performance options must be exercised in the calendar year they vest and shall be deemed automatically exercised if not otherwise done so by December 31 of the calendar year in which they vest. The fair value option grants were estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes Merton option pricing formula embedded within a Monte Carlo model used to simulate the future value of Fortegra Common Stock, which assumes the market requirement is achieved. Key assumptions used in the model were a historical volatility of 45.0%, a risk free rate of 3.7%, no dividend yield and an expected term of 4.2 years.

In 2023, Fortegra granted performance based restricted stock units (Fortegra PRSUs) that vest based on the achievement of specified gross written premium volume targets and underwriting ratios for selected specialty insurance lines written in 2024. Upon vesting, the

Fortegra PRSUs entitle recipients to participate in an aggregate pool of between$5,000 and $20,000 payable in shares of Fortegra. The Fortegra PRSUs are accounted for as liability awards with one-third of the award pool vested and issued in September 2025 and two-thirds of the pool remain unvested as of September 30, 2025.

The following table presents changes to the issuances of subsidiary awards under the subsidiary incentive plans for the periods indicated:

Stock Based Compensation Expense

The following table presents total stock based compensation expense and the related income tax benefit recognized on the condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Additional information on total non-vested stock based compensation is as follows:

(1)

Includes unrecognized compensation costof $13,319 related to stock options and$2,985 related to PRSUs at The Fortegra Group.

(18) Income Taxes

The following table presents the Company’s provision (benefit) for income taxes reflected as a component of income (loss):

(1)

Higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of outside basis deferred taxes on Tiptree’s investment in Fortegra and other discrete items.

Tiptree owns less than 80% of Fortegra and is required to record deferred taxes on the outside basis on its investment in Fortegra. This deferred tax liability represents the tax that would be due, before consideration of loss carryforwards, if Tiptree were to sell all of its Fortegra stock at its carrying value on Tiptree’s balance sheet.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the deferred tax liability relating to Fortegra increased by$7,258, of which$1,101 of expense was recorded in OCI, and$6,157 of expense was recorded as a provision for income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the deferred tax liability relating to Fortegra increased by$9,913, of which$4,006 of expense was recorded in OCI, and$5,907 of expense was recorded as a provision for income taxes. Excluding the impact of these deferred taxes, the effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were 43.1% and 28.2%, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the deferred tax liability relating to Fortegra increased by$24,538, of which$5,721 of expense was recorded in OCI, and$18,817 of expense was recorded as a provision for income taxes. For the nine months ended

September 30, 2024, the deferred tax liability relating to Fortegra increased by$19,844, of which$3,115 of expense was recorded in OCI, and$16,729 of expense was recorded as a provision for income taxes. Excluding the impact of these deferred taxes, the effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were 32.5% and 29.9%, respectively.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) has introduced a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax rate of 15%, commonly referred to as Pillar Two. Many aspects of Pillar Two were effective in 2024 and other aspects will be effective in 2025. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will adopt Pillar Two, certain countries in which the Company operates have adopted legislation and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar Two. While we do not expect Pillar Two to have a material impact on the Company, our analysis is ongoing as the OECD releases additional guidance and countries implement additional legislation.

“An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14,” commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), was enacted into law in the U.S on July 4, 2025. The OBBBA permanently extended parts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, updated international tax rules, and restored certain business tax benefits. Its provisions take effect between 2025 and 2027. We do not expect these provisions to have a material impact on our financial statements.

(19) Commitments and Contingencies

The following table presents rent expense for the Company’s office leases recorded in other expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the following periods:

The Company entered into a sublease of its former corporate office space in December 2022. As a result of the sublease, future lease payments will be offset by $1,842 annually from July 2023 through August 2029.

Litigation

The Company is a defendant in Mullins v. Southern Financial Life Insurance Co., a class action filed in February 2006, in Pike County Circuit Court in the Commonwealth of Kentucky on behalf of Kentucky consumers that purchased certain credit life and disability insurance coverage between 1997-2007. The action alleges violations of the Kentucky Consumer Protection Act (“KCPA”) and certain insurance statutes, common law fraud and breach of contract and the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and interest.

Two classes were certified in June 2010: Subclass A includes class members who suffered a disability during the coverage period but allegedly received less than full disability benefits; Subclass B includes all class members whose loan termination date extended beyond the termination date of the credit disability coverage period.

In a series of orders issued in October 2022 on competing motions for partial summary judgment, the court found in favor of the plaintiffs as to the Subclass A breach of contract claim (the “Subclass A Order”) and, as to Subclass B, found that the Company was unjustly enriched to the extent the premium it collected exceeded the proportion of the premium for which the Company provided benefits coverage (the “Subclass B Order”). The court found in favor of the Company as to the plaintiffs’ claims for common law fraud and violation of Kentucky’s insurance statutes and ordered the plaintiffs’ Motion for Sanctions for Spoliation of Evidence held in abeyance. The Company has appealed the Subclass A Order and Subclass B Order and all interlocutory orders made final by entry of the Subclass A Order and Subclass B Order.

In December 2022, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ KCPA claims as to both Subclass A Order and Subclass B Order. The court also dismissed the plaintiffs’ breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing claim as to Subclass B Order but declined to dismiss such claim as to Subclass A Order pending resolution of the Company’s appeal.

In May 2024, the Commonwealth of Kentucky Court of Appeals disagreed with the court’s interpretation of the policies at issue and entered an order (the “Court of Appeals Order”) affirming in part, reversing in part, and remanding the Subclass A Order and Subclass B Order. In June 2024, the Company filed a Motion for Discretionary Review of the Court of Appeals Order in the Supreme Court of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

In February 2025, the Supreme Court of the Commonwealth of Kentucky denied the Company’s Motion for Discretionary Review of the Court of Appeals’ May 2024 Order and proceedings recommenced in the Pike County Circuit Court. In June 2025, the Pike County

Circuit Court issued orders amending the Subclass A Order and Subclass B Order consistent with its reading of the Court of Appeals Order and declined to find at this time that members of Subclass B did not sustain any damages as a matter of law. A trial date has not been set.

The Company considers such litigation customary in the insurance industry. In management’s opinion, based on information available at this time, the ultimate resolution of such litigation, which it is vigorously defending, should not be materially adverse to the financial position of the Company. It should be noted that large punitive damage awards, bearing little relation to actual damages sustained by plaintiffs, have been awarded in certain states against other companies in the credit insurance business. At this time, the Company cannot estimate a range of loss that is reasonably possible.

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company’s legal and financial liability with respect to such proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty, the Company does not believe that these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position.

(20) Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates basic net income per share of common stock (common share) based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, which includes vested corporate RSUs. Unvested corporate RSUs have a non-forfeitable right to participate in dividends declared and paid on the Company’s common stock on an as vested basis and are therefore considered a participating security. The Company calculates basic earnings per share using the “two-class” method under which the income available to common stockholders is allocated to the unvested corporate RSUs.

Diluted net income attributable to common stockholders includes the effect of unvested subsidiaries’ RSUs, when dilutive. The assumed exercise of all potentially dilutive instruments is included in the diluted net income per common share calculation, if dilutive.

The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the following periods:

(21) Related Party Transactions

Tiptree Advisors is a related party of the Company because Tiptree Advisors is deemed to be controlled by Michael Barnes, the Company’s Executive Chairman. Tiptree Advisors manages investment portfolio accounts of Fortegra and certain of its subsidiaries under an investment advisory agreement (the IAA). The Company is invested in funds managed by Tiptree Advisors. The Company incurred$8,045 and$1,594 of management and incentive fees for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company incurred$12,063 and$4,760 of management and incentive fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s percentage of profits interest in Tiptree Advisors was 52.0%.

Pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, the Company and Tiptree Advisors have mutually agreed to provide certain services to one another. Payments under the Transition Services Agreement in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were not material.

Pursuant to a Partner Emeritus Agreement, the Company agreed to provide Mr. Inayatullah, a greater than 5% stockholder of the Company, support services and reimburse Mr. Inayatullah for a portion of benefit expenses in exchange for advice and other consulting services as requested by the Company’s Executive Committee. Transactions related to the Partner Emeritus Agreement in thenine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were not material.

(22) Subsequent Events
