Previous wording
Recent indicators suggest that growth of U.S. economic activity has moderated in the first half of 2025. The unemployment rate remains low and labor market conditions remain solid. Inflation remains elevated. The Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) seeks to achieve maximum employment and 2% inflation over the longer run, and has noted that uncertainty around the economic outlook remains elevated. At its most recent meeting, the FOMC maintained its federal funds rate target range at 4.25% to 4.50%. Economic and financial market trends could impact the Company’s financial results. Economic improvement at the state and local level strengthens the credit quality of the issuers of our insured municipal bonds, improves the performance of our insured U.S. public finance portfolio and could reduce the amount of National’s potential incurred losses. Higher interest rates could adversely affect the values of our Company’s investment portfolio, but increase investment portfolio yield and income, and decrease the present value of loss reserves.

On January 31, 2023, National entered into a restructuring support agreement (“PREPA RSA”) with the Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico (the “Oversight Board”), on behalf of itself and as the sole Title III representative of PREPA. A plan of adjustment for PREPA (the "Plan") and related disclosure statement was filed on February 9, 2023. Subsequently, both the Plan and PREPA RSA were amended. The Title III Court conducted confirmation hearings in March 2024. On June 12, 2024, the First Circuit Court of Appeals reversed Judge Swain's prior rulings and supported bondholder liens and claim amounts (the "Appeal Decision"). On June 26, 2024, the Oversight Board filed a petition for a First Circuit panel rehearing, and the Unsecured Creditors Committee ("UCC") filed an en banc appeal. On November 13, 2024, the First Circuit affirmed the Appeal Decision. On November 27, 2024, the Oversight Board filed a petition for further rehearing, and on December 31, 2024, the First Circuit denied the rehearing request. On January 29, 2025, the Court extended its litigation stay through March 24, 2025, and on March 3, 2025, the Court entered an order identifying key legal issues and requiring a joint proposed litigation schedule. On March 20, 2025, the Court set a briefing schedule on a motion for allowance of an administrative expense. On June 11, 2025, the Court set June 30, 2025, as the deadline for discovery, and July 23, 2025, for oral arguments in the administrative expense claim motion. Following the hearing, the Court reserved its decision on the legal issues and permitted the parties to continue resolution of discovery disputes. Following the Appeal Decision, the Oversight Board informed the Court, National and other parties that it intended to modify National’s settlement in a forthcoming amended Plan. Thereafter, National provided notice to the Oversight Board that National did not support the board's actions and that such actions constituted a breach and termination of the PREPA RSA, as amended. There is no assurance that a plan that is substantially similar in the treatment of National's claims and rights will ultimately be confirmed and become effective. In the event of a substantially different confirmed plan, National’s PREPA loss reserves and recoveries could be materially adversely affected.

Previous wording
In July of 2025, National transferred certain PREPA bankruptcy claims to a custodian in exchange for tradeable custodial receipts (the "Custodial Receipts"). As owner of the Custodial Receipts, National continues to hold the same rights and is entitled to the same economic benefits associated with the transferred bankruptcy claims. As a result, the Company's estimated recovery values for these bankruptcy claims continue to be recorded within "Insurance loss recoverable" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. National may, at its discretion, sell such Custodial Receipts to qualified buyers prior to a PREPA bankruptcy settlement in order to monetize subrogation of the related bankruptcy claims.
Current wording
In July of 2025, National transferred certain PREPA bankruptcy claims to a custodian in exchange for tradeable custodial receipts (the "Custodial Receipts"). At the time of transfer, National owned the Custodial Receipts and continued to hold the same rights and was entitled to the same economic benefits associated with the transferred bankruptcy claims. In August of 2025, National sold the Custodial Receipts in a series of transactions through the transfer of ownership of approximately $374 million face amount of the Custodial Receipts, representing approximately 47% of the principal amount of National’s then current bond claims in the PREPA Title III case. This transaction reduced potential volatility and ongoing risk of remediation around National’s remaining PREPA exposure, for which the Title III case continues to remain uncertain and National continues to use its best efforts to strengthen its position. Subsequent to the sale of these Custodial Receipts, National does not retain any additional Custodial Receipts for sale. The sales price of the Custodial Receipts was higher than National's previous estimate, which resulted in National recording a gain included in "Losses and loss adjustment" on our consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. These sales also reduced National's "Insurance loss recoverable" related to PREPA on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2025. Refer to the following “U.S. Public Finance Insurance Segment - Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” section for additional information on the sales of our Custodial Receipts.

The increase in consolidated total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the same period of 2024 was principally due to favorable changes from fair valuing investments and revenues from consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs"), partially offset by unfavorable changes from foreign currency and net investment income. The three months ended June 30, 2025 included $5 million of gains from fair valuing investments compared with $59 million of losses for the same period of 2024. The three months ended June 30, 2024 included $13 million of consolidated VIE losses primarily from the reclassification of credit risk losses from accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") to net income (loss) due to the deconsolidation of a VIE, with no comparable amounts for the same period of 2025. The three months ended June 30, 2025 included foreign currency losses of $9 million on euro-denominated liabilities compared with foreign exchange gains of $1 million on these liabilities for the same period of 2024. This unfavorable change was due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro in 2025 compared with the U.S. dollar strengthening against the euro in 2024. In addition, net investment income decreased $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with the same period of 2024 primarily due to a lower average asset base and a lower investment yield.

The consolidated VIE loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily from the reclassification of credit risk losses from AOCI to net income (loss) due to early redemptions of VIE liabilities and the deconsolidation of a VIE. The six months ended June 30, 2025 included foreign currency losses of $13 million on euro-denominated liabilities due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro in 2025 and foreign currency translation losses of $5 million reclassified from AOCI to net income (loss) due to the liquidation of a foreign subsidiary.

LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, losses and LAE incurred primarily related to a decrease in risk-free rates used to discount loss reserves, which caused the present value of loss reserves, net of recoveries to increase and accretion of loss reserves on our insured RMBS transactions. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, losses and LAE incurred primarily related to accretion of loss reserves. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the incurred loss and LAE benefit primarily related to an increase in risk-free rates, used to discount loss reserves, which caused the present value of loss reserves, net of recoveries, to decline on our insured RMBS transactions. This was partially offset by an increase in the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), which increased estimated interest expense on floating rate liabilities on our insured RMBS transactions. The incurred loss benefit was also partially offset by accretion of loss reserves.
