Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Global Indemnity Group, LLC (“Global Indemnity” or “the Company”), is a Delaware limited liability company whose predecessors have been publicly traded since 2003. Effective after close of trading on November 3, 2025, the Company transferred the listing of itsclass A common shares (excluding class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares) from the New York Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq Global Select Market where the shares continue to trade under the existing ticker symbol "GBLI".

Global Indemnity Group, LLC is a holding company that is classified as a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and meets the qualifying income exception to maintain partnership status. Global Indemnity operates through two primary subsidiaries:

Katalyx Holdings LLC (“Katalyx”) (formerly Penn-America Underwriters, LLC) is a specialty insurance intermediary formed through an internal reorganization completed in December 2024. Katalyx comprises:(i) four agencies focused on sourcing, underwriting, and servicing primary and assumed reinsurance business; and (ii) three specialized insurance service businesses providing technology, AI-enabled marketplace and claims services.

Belmont Holdings GX, Inc. ("Belmont Holdings") owns five statutory insurance carriers: Penn-Patriot Insurance Company, Diamond State Insurance Company, Penn-Star Insurance Company, Penn-America Insurance Company, and United National Insurance Company, each of which are rated “A” (Excellent) by AM Best. Collectively, the insurance carriers are licensed in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which differs in certain respects from those principles followed in reports to insurance regulatory authorities. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Global Indemnity Group, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

  1. Acquisition

On August 31, 2025, Sayata US Insurance Services, Inc. ("Sayata") was acquired in an all-cash transaction. The acquisition complements the Company’s recent strategic reorganization of its Katalyx business to focus on agency and insurance services.

The results of Sayata’s operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition on August 31, 2025.

  1. Restructuring Related to Exited Lines of Business

The Company restructured its insurance operations to strengthen its market presence and enhance its focus on core products. As a result, the Company exited its four brokerage divisions: Professional Liability, Excess Casualty, Environmental, and Middle Market Property. The Company ceased writing new business and non-renewed existing policies for these four divisions. The restructuring plan, which was initiated in thefourth quarter of 2022, was completed in thefirst quarter of 2023.

In connection with the restructuring plan, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $3.4 million in 2022 and $2.0 million in 2023 for total restructuring costs of $5.4 million. No additional restructuring costs were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2025.

The following table summarizes charges incurred by expense type and the remaining liability as of December 31,2025, 2024 and 2023:

Any information technology development initiatives related to business lines within Belmont Non-Core have been discontinued.

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s investments in fixed maturities, which are classified as available for sale, and equity securities are carried at their fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair values of the Company's fixed maturities and equity securities are determined on the basis of quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company uses third-party pricing services to assist in determining fair value. In many instances, these services examine the pricing of similar instruments to estimate fair value. The Company purchases bonds with the expectation of holding them to their maturity; however, changes to the portfolio are sometimes required to ensure it is appropriately matched to liabilities. In addition, changes in financial market conditions and tax considerations may cause the Company to sell an investment before it matures. The difference between amortized cost and fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio, net of the effect of deferred income taxes, is reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity and, accordingly, has no effect on net income other than for the credit loss component of impairments and losses recognized as a result of the intent to sell. Equity securities are measured at fair value with the changes in fair value recognized in net income.

The Company carries investments in limited partnerships at fair value and uses the equity method of accounting. The equity method for an investment in a limited partnership requires that its cost basis be updated to account for the income or loss earned on the investment. The receipt of results for investments in limited partnerships may vary. If results are received on a timely basis, they are included in current results. If they are not received on a timely basis, they are recorded on a one quarter lag. The recording of such results is applied consistently for each investment once the timing of receiving the results has been established. The income or loss associated with the limited partnerships is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, and the adjusted cost basis approximates fair value.

The Company’s investments in other invested assets were valued at$17.1 million and$29.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. These amounts relate to investments in limited partnerships whose carrying value approximates fair value.

Net realized gains and losses on investments are determined based on the first-in, first-out method.

The Company regularly performs various analytical valuation procedures with respect to its investments, including reviewing each available for sale debt security in an unrealized loss position to assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis of the security, a credit loss exists and an allowance for expected credit losses is recorded. Subsequent changes in the allowances are recorded in the period of change as either credit loss expense or reversal of credit loss expense. Any declines in value related to factors other than credit losses and the intent to sell are recorded through other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

For fixed maturities, the factors considered in reaching the conclusion that a credit loss exists include, among others, whether:

(1)

the extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis;

(2)

the issuer is in financial distress;

(3)

the investment is secured;

(4)

a significant credit rating action occurred;

(5)

scheduled interest payments were delayed or missed;

(6)

changes in laws or regulations have affected an issuer or industry;

(7)

the investment has an unrealized loss and was identified by the Company’s investment manager as an investment to be sold before recovery or maturity;

(8)

the investment failed cash flow projection testing to determine if anticipated principal and interest payments will be realized; and

(9)

changes in US Treasury rates and/or credit spreads since original purchase to identify whether the unrealized loss is simply due to interest rate movement.

According to accounting guidance for debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company is required to assess whether it has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before the anticipated recovery. If either of these conditions is met, any allowance for expected credit losses is written off and the amortized cost basis is written down to the fair value of the fixed maturity security with any incremental impairment reported in earnings. The new amortized cost basis shall not be adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value.

The Company elected the practical expedient to exclude accrued interest from both the fair value and the amortized cost basis of the available for sale debt securities for the purposes of identifying and measuring an impairment and to not measure an allowance for expected credit losses for accrued interest receivables. Accrued interest receivable is written off through net realized investment gains (losses) at the time the issuer of the bond defaults or is expected to default on payment. The Company made an accounting policy election to present the accrued interest receivable balance with other assets on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position. Accrued interest receivable related to fixed maturities was $4.8 million and $3.5 million as of December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities

A Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) refers to an investment in which an investor holds a controlling interest that is not based on the majority of voting rights. Under the VIE model, the party that has the power to exercise significant management influence and maintain a controlling financial interest in the entity’s economics is said to be the primary beneficiary, and is required to consolidate the entity within their results. Other entities that participate in a VIE, for which their financial interests fluctuate with changes in the fair value of the investment entity’s net assets but do not have significant management influence and the ability to direct the VIE’s significant economic activities are said to have a variable interest in the VIE but do not consolidate the VIE in their financial results.

The Company has a variable interest intwo limited partnership investments for which it is not the primary beneficiary.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents, with the exception of treasury bills, which are classified as fixed maturities. The Company has a cash management program that provides for the investment of excess cash balances primarily in short-term money market instruments. Generally, bank balances exceed federally insured limits. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had approximately $60.9 million and $15.3 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents that was invested in a diversified portfolio of high quality short-term debt securities.

Valuation of Premium Receivables

The Company evaluates the collectability of premium receivables based on a combination of factors. In instances in which the Company is aware of a specific circumstance where a party may be unable to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific allowance for expected credit losses against amounts due is recorded to reduce the net receivable to the amount reasonably believed by management to be collectible. For all remaining balances, the allowance is based upon the Company’s ongoing review of key aspects of amounts outstanding, including but not limited to, length of collection periods, direct placement with collection agencies, solvency of insured or agent, terminated agents, and other relevant factors. The allowance for expected credit losses was$3.6 million and$3.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company tests for impairment of goodwill at least annually and more frequently as circumstances warrant in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Accounting guidance allows for the testing of goodwill for impairment using both qualitative and quantitative factors. Impairment of goodwill is recognized only if the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit. The amount of the impairment loss would be equal to the excess carrying value of the goodwill over the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill.

Impairment of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life is tested at least annually and more frequently as circumstances warrant in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Accounting guidance allows for the testing of indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment using both qualitative and quantitative factors. Impairment of indefinite lived intangible assets is recognized only if the carrying amount of the intangible assets exceeds the fair value of said assets. The amount of the impairment loss would be equal to the excess carrying value of the assets over the fair value of said assets.

Intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite useful life are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The carrying amounts of definite lived intangible assets are regularly reviewed for indicators of impairment in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Impairment is recognized only if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is in excess of its undiscounted projected cash flows. The impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value of the asset.

See Note 7 for additional information on goodwill and intangible assets as well as the results of qualitative impairment assessments performed.

Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to reduce the loss that may arise from events that cause unfavorable underwriting results by reinsuring certain levels of risk from various areas of exposure with reinsurers. Amounts receivable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the reinsured policy and the reinsurance contract.

The Company regularly reviews the collectability of reinsurance receivables. An allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables is recognized based upon the Company’s ongoing review of key aspects of amounts outstanding, including but not limited to, length of collection periods, disputes, applicable coverage defenses, insolvent reinsurers, financial strength of solvent reinsurers based on AM Best Ratings and other relevant factors. Any changes in the allowance resulting from this review are included in net losses and loss adjustment expenses on the consolidated statements of operations during the period in which the determination is made. The allowance for expected credit losses was$1.5 million and$9.0 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The applicable accounting guidance requires that the reinsurer must assume significant insurance risk under the reinsured portions of the underlying insurance contracts and that there must be a reasonably possible chance that the reinsurer may realize a significant loss from the transaction. The Company has evaluated its reinsurance contracts and concluded that each contract qualifies for reinsurance accounting treatment pursuant to this guidance.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The deferred tax asset balance is analyzed regularly by management. This assessment requires significant judgment and considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of carryforward periods, and tax planning strategies and/or actions. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations can generate sufficient taxable income to realize the remaining deferred income tax assets, and accordingly, the Company has not established any valuation allowances.

Deferred Acquisition Costs

The costs of acquiring new and renewal insurance and reinsurance contracts primarily include commissions, premium taxes and certain other costs that are directly related to the successful acquisition of new and renewal insurance and reinsurance contracts. The excess of the Company’s costs of acquiring new and renewal insurance and reinsurance contracts over the related ceding commissions earned from reinsurers is capitalized as deferred acquisition costs and amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned.

The amortization of deferred acquisition costs for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was$89.7 million,$87.6 million, and$120.9 million, respectively.

Premium Deficiency

A premium deficiency is recognized if the sum of expected loss and loss adjustment expenses and unamortized acquisition costs exceeds related unearned premium after consideration of investment income. This evaluation is done at a distribution and product line/treaty level. Any future expected loss on the related unearned premium is recorded first by impairing the unamortized acquisition costs on the related unearned premium followed by an increase to loss and loss adjustment expense reserves on additional expected loss in excess of unamortized acquisition costs. No premium deficiency reserve existed as of December 31, 2025 or 2024.

Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses represents the Company’s best estimate of future amounts needed to pay losses and related settlement expenses with respect to events insured by the Company. This liability is based upon the accumulation of individual case estimates for losses reported prior to the close of the accounting period with respect to direct business, estimates received from ceding companies with respect to assumed reinsurance, and estimates of unreported losses.

The process of establishing the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment is complex, requiring the use of informed actuarially based estimates and Management’s judgment. In some cases, significant periods of time, up to several years or more, may elapse between the occurrence of an insured loss and the reporting of that loss to the Company. To establish this liability, the Company regularly reviews and updates the methods of making such estimates and establishing the resulting liabilities. Any resulting adjustments are recorded in consolidated statements of operations during the period in which the determination is made.

Share Repurchases

Shares repurchased from employees or third parties by Global Indemnity Group, LLC are held as treasury stock and recorded at cost until formally retired by Global Indemnity Group, LLC.

Retirement of Treasury Stock

Upon the formal retirement of treasury stock, Global Indemnity Group, LLC offsets the par value of the treasury stock that is being retired against common shares and reflects any excess of cost over par value as a deduction from Additional Paid-in Capital.

Share Redemptions

When shares are redeemed, Global Indemnity Group, LLC offsets the par value of the redeemed shares against common shares and reflects any excess of cost over par value as a deduction from Retained Earnings.

Premiums

Premiums are recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the respective policies and treaties. Unearned premiums are computed on a pro rata basis to the day of expiration.

Mandatory reinstatement premiums assessed on reinsurance policies are earned in the period of the loss event that gave rise to the reinstatement premiums.

Contingent Commissions

Certain professional general agencies of Global Indemnity are paid special incentives, referred to as contingent commissions, when results of business produced by these agencies are more favorable than predetermined thresholds. Similarly, in some circumstances, companies that cede business to Global Indemnity are paid profit commissions based on the profitability of the ceded portfolio. These commissions are charged to other underwriting expenses when incurred.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock options and other equity based compensation using the modified prospective application of the fair value-based method permitted by the appropriate accounting guidance. See Note 16 for details.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share have been calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. In periods of net income, diluted earnings per share have been calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted-average common shares outstanding and the weighted-average common share equivalents outstanding, which include options and other equity awards. In periods of net loss, diluted earnings per share is the same as basic earnings per share. See Note 18 for details.

Foreign Currency

At times, the Company maintains investments and cash accounts in foreign currencies related to the operations of its business. At period-end, the Company re-measures non-U.S. currency financial assets to their current U.S. dollar equivalent. The resulting gain or loss for foreign denominated fixed maturity investments, if any, is reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity; whereas, the gain or loss on foreign denominated cash accounts and equity securities is reflected in income during the period. Financial liabilities, if any, are generally adjusted within the loss reserving process. However, for known losses on claims to be paid in foreign currencies, the Company re-measures the liabilities to their current U.S. dollar equivalent each period end with the resulting gain or loss reflected in income during the period. Net transaction gains and losses, primarily comprised of re-measurement of known losses on claims to be paid in foreign currencies, were a loss of $0.2 million, a gain of$0.1 million, and a loss of$0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. For leases with a term of greater than 12 months, lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) and lease liabilities are included on the consolidated balance sheets.

Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The ROU asset is calculated using the initial lease liability amount, plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received, plus any initial direct costs incurred. Lease expenses for minimum lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s lease agreements may contain both lease and non-lease components which are accounted separately. The Company elected the practical expedient on not separating lease components from non-lease components for its equipment leases.

Rental income derived from subleases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the operating lease term.

Other Income

Other income is primarily comprised of fee income and foreign exchange gains and losses.

Capitalized Software Costs

Capitalized software costs, which represent costs directly related to obtaining, developing or upgrading internal use software, are capitalized during the application development stage. These costs generally consist of internal personnel costs, external consulting fees, and software license fees. Capitalized software costs, which are included in other assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, are amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life beginning when the software is put into service. Internal and external costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, training costs, most data conversion costs, and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Capitalized software costs were$17.3 million and $10.0 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Amortization expense related to capitalized software for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $5.0 million, $4.4 million, and $4.9 million, respectively.

Subject to the risks and uncertainties in evaluating the potential impairment of a security’s value, the impairment evaluation conducted by the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 concluded the unrealized losses in the tables above are non-credit losses on securities where management does not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery. The impairment evaluation process is discussed in the “Investment” section of Note 4 (“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”).

The following is a description, by asset type, of the methodology and significant inputs that the Company used to measure the amount of credit loss recognized in earnings, if any:

U.S. treasuries – As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to U.S. treasuries were$0.120 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, macroeconomic and market analysis is conducted in evaluating these securities. Consideration is given to the interest rate environment, duration and yield curve management of the portfolio, sector allocation and security selection. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on U.S. treasuries during the period.

Obligations of states and political subdivisions – As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to obligations of states and political subdivisions were$0.350 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, elements that may influence the performance of the municipal bond market are considered in evaluating these securities such as investor expectations, supply and demand patterns, and current versus historical yield and spread relationships. The analysis relies on the output of fixed income credit analysts, as well as dedicated municipal bond analysts who perform extensive in-house fundamental analysis on each issuer, regardless of their rating by the major agencies. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on obligations of states and political subdivisions during the period.

Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) – As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed securities were$3.451 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, mortgage-backed securities are modeled to project principal losses under downside, base, and upside scenarios for the economy and home prices. The primary assumption that drives the security and loan level modeling is the Home Price Index (“HPI”) projection. These forecasts incorporate not just national macro-economic trends, but also regional impacts to arrive at the most granular and detailed and comprehensive projections. These assumptions are incorporated into the model as a basis to generate delinquency probabilities, default curves, loss severity curves, and voluntary prepayment curves at the loan level within each deal. The model utilizes HPI-adjusted current loan to value, payment history, loan terms, loan modification history, and borrower characteristics as inputs to generate expected cash flows and principal loss for each bond under various scenarios. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on mortgage-backed securities during the period.

Asset backed securities (“ABS”) - As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to asset backed securities were$3.649 million. The weighted average credit enhancement for the Company’s asset backed portfolio is 34.8. This represents the percentage of pool losses that can occur before an asset backed security will incur its first dollar of principal losses. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, every ABS transaction is analyzed on a stand-alone basis. This analysis involves a thorough review of the collateral, prepayment, and structural risk in each transaction. Additionally, the analysis includes an in-depth credit analysis of the originator and servicer of the collateral. The analysis projects an expected loss for a deal given a set of assumptions specific to the asset type. These assumptions are used to calculate at what level of losses the deal will incur its first dollar of principal loss. The major assumptions used to calculate this ratio are loss severities, recovery lags, and no advances on principal and interest. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on asset backed securities during the period.

Commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) - As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to the CMBS portfolio were$1.463 million. The weighted average credit enhancement for the Company’s CMBS portfolio is 41.9. This represents the percentage of pool losses that can occur before a commercial mortgage-backed security will incur its first dollar of principal loss. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, a loan level analysis is utilized where every underlying CMBS loan is re-underwritten based on a set of assumptions reflecting expectations for the future path of the economy. Each loan is analyzed over time using a series of tests to determine if a credit event will occur during the life of the loan. Inherent in this process are several economic scenarios and their corresponding rent/vacancy and capital market states. The five primary credit events that frame the analysis include loan modifications, term default, balloon default, extension, and ability to pay off the balloon. The resulting output is the expected loss adjusted cash flows for each bond under the base case and distressed scenarios. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on commercial mortgage-backed securities during the period.

Corporate bonds -As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to corporate bonds were$0.867 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, analysis for this asset class includes maintaining detailed financial models that include a projection of each issuer’s future financial performance, including prospective debt servicing capabilities, capital structure composition, and the value of the collateral. The analysis incorporates the macroeconomic environment, industry conditions in which the issuer operates, the issuer’s current competitive position, its vulnerability to changes in the competitive and regulatory environment, issuer liquidity, issuer commitment to bondholders, issuer creditworthiness, and asset protection. Part of the process also includes running downside scenarios to evaluate the expected likelihood of default as well as potential losses in the event of default. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on corporate bonds during the period.

Foreign bonds – As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized losses related to foreign bonds were$0.565 million. To assess whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost has resulted from a credit loss or other factors, detailed financial models are maintained that include a projection of each issuer’s future financial performance, including prospective debt servicing capabilities, capital structure composition, and the value of the collateral. The analysis incorporates the macroeconomic environment, industry conditions in which the issuer operates, the issuer’s current competitive position, its vulnerability to changes in the competitive and regulatory environment, issuer liquidity, issuer commitment to bondholders, issuer creditworthiness, and asset protection. Part of the process also includes running downside scenarios to evaluate the expected likelihood of default as well as potential losses in the event of default. Based on the analysis performed, the Company did not recognize a credit loss on foreign bonds during the period.

The Company has evaluated its investment portfolio and has determined that an allowance for expected credit losses on its investments is not required.

Variable Interest Entities

A Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) refers to an investment in which an investor holds a controlling interest that is not based on the majority of voting rights. Under the VIE model, the party that has the power to exercise significant management influence and maintain a controlling financial interest in the entity’s economics is said to be the primary beneficiary, and is required to consolidate the entity within their results. Other entities that participate in a VIE, for which their financial interests fluctuate with changes in the fair value of the investment entity’s net assets but do not have significant management influence and the ability to direct the VIE’s significant economic activities are said to have a variable interest in the VIE but do not consolidate the VIE in their financial results.

The Company has interests inthree limited partnership investments with an aggregate carrying value approximating fair value of$17.1 million and$29.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company has a variable interest intwo of these limited partnership investments for which it is not the primary beneficiary. These investments are accounted for under the equity method since its ownership interest exceeds 3%.

The carrying value of one of the Company’s VIE’s, the European Non-Performing Loan Fund, LP, which invests in distressed securities and assets, was$1.7 million and$2.6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s maximum loss exposure from this VIE, which factors in future funding commitments of $11.2 million and $14.2 million, was $12.9 million and $16.8 million as of December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. Since the investment period has concluded, the Company does not expect any capital calls will be made prospectively. The carrying value and maximum loss exposure of a second VIE, the Mortgage Debt Fund, LP, which invests in Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) qualifying assets was$6.0 million and $8.9 million as of December 31,2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s investment in VIEs is included in other invested assets on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in carrying value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

  1. Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standards related to fair value measurements define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, outline a fair value hierarchy based on inputs used to measure fair value, and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. These standards do not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. The Company has determined that its fair value measurements are in accordance with the requirements of these accounting standards.

The Company’s invested assets are carried at their fair value and are categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – inputs utilize other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for similar assets, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – inputs are unobservable for the asset, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset.

The following table presents information about the Company’s invested assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31,2025 and 2024 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

The securities classified as Level 1 in the above tables consist of U.S. treasuries and equity securities actively traded on an exchange.

The securities classified as Level 2 in the above tables consist primarily of fixed maturities and preferred stocks. Based on the typical trading volumes and the lack of quoted market prices for fixed maturities and preferred stocks, security prices are derived through recent reported trades for identical or similar securities making adjustments through the reporting date based upon available market observable information. If there are no recent reported trades, matrix or model processes are used to develop a security price where future cash flow expectations are developed based upon collateral performance and discounted at an estimated market rate. Included in the pricing of asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and mortgage-backed securities are estimates of the rate of future prepayments of principal over the remaining life of the securities. Such estimates are derived based on the characteristics of the underlying structure and prepayment speeds previously experienced at the interest rate levels projected for the underlying collateral.

Financial Instruments not Carried at Fair Value

Other invested assets consist of limited partnerships whose carrying value approximates fair value. The Company uses the equity method to account for investments in limited partnerships, which requires that its cost basis be updated to account for the income or loss earned on the investment. These investments are booked on a one quarter lag due to non-availability of data at the time the financial statements are prepared. The investment income (loss) associated with the limited partnerships is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the amounts of $1.4 million, $2.1 million, and $4.5 million for the years ended December 31,2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

The following table provides the carrying value and future funding commitments related to these investments at December 31,2025 and 2024.

Partial redemption proceeds of $9.2 million and $8.7 million were received during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Pricing

The Company’s pricing vendors provide prices for all investment categories except for investments in limited partnerships. Two primary vendors are utilized to provide prices for equity and fixed maturity securities.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used by the Company’s pricing vendors for investment securities carried at fair value:

Equity security prices are received from primary and secondary exchanges.

Corporate and agency bonds, as well as preferred stock, are evaluated by utilizing a spread to a benchmark curve. Bonds with similar characteristics are grouped into specific sectors. Inputs for both asset classes consist of trade prices, broker quotes, the new issue market, and prices on comparable securities.

Data from commercial vendors is aggregated with market information, then converted into an option adjusted spread (“OAS”) matrix and prepayment model used for collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO”). CMOs are categorized with mortgage-backed securities in the tables listed above. For asset-backed securities, spread data is derived from trade prices, dealer quotations, and research reports. For both asset classes, evaluations utilize standard inputs plus new issue data, and collateral performance. The evaluated pricing models incorporate cash flows, broker quotes, market trades, historical prepayment speeds, and dealer projected speeds.

For obligations of state and political subdivisions, an attribute-based modeling system is used. The pricing model incorporates trades, market clearing yields, market color, and fundamental credit research.

U.S. treasuries are evaluated by obtaining feeds from a number of live data sources including primary and secondary dealers as well as inter-dealer brokers.

For mortgage-backed securities, various external analytical products are utilized and purchased from commercial vendors.

The Company performs certain procedures to validate whether the pricing information received from the pricing vendors is reasonable, to ensure that the fair value determination is consistent with accounting guidance, and to ensure that its assets are properly classified in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s procedures include, but are not limited to:

Reviewing periodic reports provided by the Investment Manager that provides information regarding rating changes and securities placed on watch. This procedure allows the Company to understand why a particular security’s market value may have changed or may potentially change.

Understanding and periodically evaluating the various pricing methods and procedures used by the Company’s pricing vendors to ensure that investments are properly classified within the fair value hierarchy.

On a quarterly basis, the Company corroborates investment security prices received from its pricing vendors by obtaining pricing from a second pricing vendor for a sample of securities.

During 2025 and 2024, the Company has not adjusted quotes or prices obtained from the pricing vendors.

  1. Allowance for Expected Credit Losses - Premium Receivables and Reinsurance Receivables

For premium receivables, the allowance is based upon the Company’s ongoing review of key aspects of amounts outstanding, including but not limited to, length of collection periods, direct placement with collection agencies, solvency of insured, agents, or reinsurers on assumed reinsurance, terminated agents, and other relevant factors.

The following table is an analysis of the allowance for expected credit losses related to the Company's premium receivables for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Amounts written off represent reinsurance receivables from defunct reinsurers for which the Company had previously recorded an allowance for expected credit losses.

  1. Reinsurance

The Company cedes risk to unrelated reinsurers on a pro rata (“quota share”) and excess of loss basis in the ordinary course of business to limit its net loss exposure on direct business insurance contracts. Reinsurance ceded arrangements do not discharge the Company of primary liability. Moreover, reinsurers may fail to pay the Company due to a lack of reinsurer liquidity, perceived improper underwriting, and losses for risks that are excluded from reinsurance coverage and other similar factors, all of which could adversely affect the Company’s financial results.

The Company had the following reinsurance balances as of December 31,2025 and 2024:

  1. Income Taxes

Global Indemnity Group, LLC is a publicly traded partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and meets the qualifying income exception to maintain partnership status. As a publicly traded partnership, Global Indemnity Group, LLC is generally not subject to federal income tax and most state income taxes. However, income earned by the subsidiaries of Global Indemnity Group, LLC is subject to corporate tax in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company conducts business in the United States, where the statutory income tax rate is 21%, and performs certain functions in Ireland, where the statutory income tax rate on trading income is 12.5%, and in Israel, where the statutory income tax rate is 23%. The statutory income tax rate of each country is applied against the expected annual taxable income of the Company in each country to estimate the annual income tax expense.

The following table summarizes the components of income tax expense:

(1)State income taxes in Pennsylvania made up the majority (greater than 50 percent) of the tax effect in this category.

(2)The Company made a policy election to present the tax effect of cross border tax and its related tax credit on a net basis.

The effective income tax rate for 2025 was 23.9%, compared to 21.3% for 2024. The increase was primarily driven by (i) state income taxes, which reflected increased state taxable income resulting from the utilization of net operating loss carryforward and changes in the Company's filing profile following its internal reorganization in 2024, (ii) higher non-deductible executive compensation, and (iii) the impact of changes in income or loss at the parent company, treated as a partnership for tax purposes.

The effective income tax rate for 2024 was 21.3% compared to 22.9% for 2023. The differences between years are primarily due to the change in income or loss at the parent company, treated as a partnership for tax purposes, as well as the impact of non-tax deductible transaction costs related to the Company's internal reorganization executed in 2024.

In 2024, the intra-entity transfers of certain intangible assets related to the Company's internal reorganization resulted in tax expense on sale of $3.8 million, offset by the establishment of deferred tax assets and related tax benefits of $3.8 million. The tax-deductible amortization related to the transferred intangible assets will be recognized over a period of 15 years.

Income taxes paid were as follows:

The increase in income taxes paid during 2025 reflects the decline in net operating loss carryforwards available to offset Belmont Holdings GX, Inc.'s federal taxes in 2025.

The deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities listed in the table above relate to temporary differences between the Company’s accounting and tax carrying values and carryforwards for its companies in the United States. Management believes it is more likely than not that the remaining deferred tax assets will be completely utilized in future years. As a result, the Company has not recorded a valuation allowance at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company has a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward and a capital loss carryforward of$7.3 million and$33.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. The capital loss carryforward begins to expire in 2027 based on when the original carryforwards were generated. The Company’s NOL carryforward and capital loss carryforward were $20.7 million and $21.6 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024.

The Company and some of its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various U.S. states and certain foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2022.

The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties whereby it only recognizes those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by relevant taxing authorities. All tax benefits recognized by the Company in 2025, 2024, and 2023 have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by relevant taxing authorities.

The Company classifies all interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense. The Companydidnot incur any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions during the years ended December 31,2025, 2024, and 2023. As of December 31, 2025, the Company didnot record any significant liabilities for tax-related interest and penalties on its consoli dated balance sheets.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “Act”). The Act includes provisions to expense previously deferred domestic research and development costs, increase bonus depreciation and modify the international tax framework. The Act did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

When analyzing unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses ("loss reserves") and prior year development, the Company considers many factors, including the frequency and severity of claims, loss trends, case reserve settlements that may have resulted in significant development, and any other additional or pertinent factors that may impact reserve estimates.

During 2025, the Company increased its prior accident year loss reserves by$9.1 million, which consisted of a$9.9 million increase related to Belmont Core and a$0.8 million decrease related to Belmont Non-Core.

Belmont Core had an increase of$9.9 million consisting of (i) $6.1 million decrease for property lines primarily related to the 2019, 2020, and 2022 through 2024 accident years and (ii) $15.9 million increase for casualty lines primarily related to the 2020 through 2022 accident years mainly due to increased severity on claims of terminated products.

Belmont Non-Core had a decrease of$0.8 million consisting of (i) $3.7 million decrease for property lines primarily related to the 2016 through 2023 accident years and (ii) $2.9 million increase for casualty lines primarily related to the 1989 and prior and 2021 through 2023 accident years mainly due to increased severity on claims.

During 2024, the Company increased its prior accident year loss reserves by$0.1 million, which consisted of a$1.8 million increase related to Belmont Core and a$1.7 million decrease related to Belmont Non-Core.

Belmont Core had an increase of $1.8 million consisting of a $12.0 million increase for casualty lines across various accident years mainly due to severity offset by a $10.2 million decrease for property lines primarily related to the 2020 through 2023 accident years mainly due to severity.

Belmont Non-Core had a decrease of $1.7 million mainly driven by severity on its casualty lines consisting of (i) a decrease of $7.8 million primarily related to accident years 2017 and 2019, (ii) an increase of $6.1 million related to accident years 2022 and 2023.

During 2023, the Company increased its prior accident year loss reserves by$9.5 million, which consisted of a$29.9 million increase related to Belmont Core and a$20.3 million decrease related to Belmont Non-Core.

Belmont Core had an increase of $29.9 million consisting of (i) a $28.6 million increase for general liability mainly reflecting higher than expected claims severity in accident years 2018 through 2022, partially offset by decreases in the 1998, 2000 through 2010, 2012 and 2014 through 2017 accident years and (ii) a $1.3 million increase for property which primarily recognizes higher than expected claims severity in the 2016, 2019, 2020 and 2022 accident years, partially offset by decreases in the 2015 and 2021 accident years.

Belmont Non-Core had a decrease of $20.3 million consisting of (i) a $0.8 million increase for property mainly recognizing higher than expected claims severity in the 2021 and 2022 accident years, partially offset by decreases in the 2016, 2018 and 2020 accident years, (ii) a $10.2 million increase for general liability primarily recognizing higher than expected claims severity in accident years prior to 1990 and 2019 through 2022, partially offset by decreases in the 1995, 2013, 2014 and 2016 through 2018 accident years, and (iii) a $31.2 million decrease in reinsurance which is comprised of a $17.7 million decrease in the property lines in the 2013 through 2021 accident years; a $7.2 million decrease recognized in professional lines in the 2017 and 2019 through 2021 accident years, partially offset by increases in the 2016 and 2022 accident years; and a $6.3 million decrease in general liability mainly in the 2012 and 2019 through 2022 accident years.

Prior to 2001, the Company underwrote multi-peril business insuring general contractors, developers, and sub-contractors primarily involved in residential construction that has resulted in significant exposure to construction defect (“CD”) claims. The Company’s reserves for CD claims are established based upon Management’s best estimate in consideration of known facts, existing case law, and generally accepted actuarial methodologies. However, due to the inherent uncertainty concerning this type of business, the ultimate exposure for these claims may vary significantly from the amounts currently recorded. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, gross reserves for CD claims were $21.6 million and $25.8 million, respectively, and net reserves for CD claims were $21.0 million and $24.8 million, respectively.

The Company has exposure to asbestos and environmental (“A&E”) claims. The asbestos exposure primarily arises from the sale of product liability insurance, and the environmental exposure arises from the sale of general liability and commercial multi-peril insurance. In establishing the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses related to A&E exposures, management considers facts currently known and the current state of the law and coverage litigation. Liabilities are recognized for known claims (including the cost of related litigation) when sufficient information has been developed to indicate the involvement of a specific insurance policy, and management can reasonably estimate its liability. In addition, liabilities have been established to cover additional exposures on both known and unasserted claims. Estimates of the liabilities are reviewed and updated regularly. Case law continues to evolve for such claims, and uncertainty exists about the outcome of coverage litigation and whether past claim experience will be representative of future claim experience. Included in net unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were IBNR reserves of $9.5 million, $15.2 million, and $17.3 million, respectively, and case reserves of approximately $3.8 million, $5.5 million, and $3.8 million, respectively, for known A&E-related claims.

The following table shows the Company’s gross reserves for A&E losses:

Years Ended December 31,

Less: Payments9,153413539
Net reserves for A&E losses and loss adjustment expenses – end of period$13,358$20,696$21,107

Establishing reserves for A&E and other mass tort claims involves more judgment than other types of claims due to factors including, but not limited to, inconsistent court decisions, an increase in bankruptcy filings as a result of asbestos-related liabilities, and judicial interpretations that often expand theories of recovery and broaden the scope of coverage. The insurance industry continues to receive a substantial number of asbestos-related bodily injury claims, with an increasing focus being directed toward other parties, including installers of products containing asbestos rather than against asbestos manufacturers. This shift has resulted in significant insurance coverage litigation implicating applicable coverage defenses or determinations, if any, including but not limited to, determinations as to whether or not an asbestos-related bodily injury claim is subject to aggregate limits of liability found in most comprehensive general liability policies.

As of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the survival ratio on a gross basis for the Company’s open A&E claims was 6.2 years,14.3 years, and 15.1 years, respectively. As of December 31,2025, 2024, and 2023, the survival ratio on a net basis for the Company’s open A&E claims was 4.0 years,19.1 years, and 20.9 years, respectively. The survival ratio, which is the ratio of gross or net reserves to the 3-year average of annual paid claims, is a financial measure that indicates how long the current amount of gross or net reserves are expected to last based on the current rate of paid claims.

Belmont Core

Property and Casualty Methodologies

Belmont Core’s internal actuarial reserve reviews were completed for loss and allocated loss adjustment expenses (“ALAE”) separately for property excluding catastrophe experience, property catastrophes, and casualty reserve categories. The internal actuarial reserve reviews were completed with data through December 2025. Actuarial methodologies, such as the Loss Development, Expected Loss Ratio, Average Loss, and Bornhuetter-Ferguson methods, were employed to develop estimates of ultimate loss & ALAE for most reserve categories. Management’s ultimate selections considered the internal actuarial review and a third-party actuarial review completed during the fourth quarter of 2025. Case incurred is subtracted from the management selected ultimates to obtain the booked IBNR reserves. These methodologies are consistent with last year.

Belmont Core’s cumulative claim frequency has been calculated at the claim level and includes claims closed without payment.

Belmont Non-Core’s internal actuarial reserve reviews were completed for loss and ALAE separately for property excluding catastrophe experience, property catastrophes, and casualty reserve categories. The internal actuarial reserve reviews were completed with data through December 2025. Actuarial methodologies, such as the Loss Development, Expected Loss Ratio, Average Loss, and Bornhuetter-Ferguson methods, were employed to develop estimates of ultimate loss & ALAE. Additional actuarial methodologies were employed to develop estimates of ultimate loss & ALAE for mass tort reserve categories due to the unique characteristics of the exposures involved. Management’s ultimate selections considered the internal actuarial review and a third-party actuarial review completed during the fourth quarter of 2025. Case incurred is subtracted from the management selected ultimates to obtain the booked IBNR reserves. These methodologies are consistent with last year.

Belmont Non-Core includes experience for reinsurance contracts which the Company does not have direct access to claim frequency information, so claim frequency information will not be provided for Belmont Non-Core as it is not available for all the experience contained within this category.

In December 2024, the Company entered into a new lease at its principal location in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania through December 31, 2032. The principal changes in terms include less square footage, lower cost per square foot, and enhanced services provided by the building manager. The ROU asset and lease liability associated with the Bala Cynwyd lease were revalued as of the effective date of the lease, resulting in a $0.9 million adjustment which reduced acquisition costs and other operating expenses on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Amendment of the Limited Liability Company Agreement

Effective January 16, 2025, the Company amended and restated its Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (such amended and restated agreement, and as subsequently amended, the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLCA”)). The LLCA incorporates certain amendments, including, the authorization of 5,000,000 class A common shares that the Board may designate as class A-2 common shares pursuant to a grant agreement, as well as establishing the rights of the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares.

Class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares issuance

On March 6, 2025, Global Indemnity Group, LLC issued 550,000 class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares to Fox Paine & Company, LLC. These shares represent an interest in the profits of the Company in excess of a threshold amount of $475.3 million which is equal to the product of (i) the volume weighted average closing sale price of a class A common share on the

New York Stock Exchange for the 30 consecutive calendar days ending on and including the grant date of March 6, 2025, which is equal to $34.67 per share, multiplied by (ii) the total number of outstanding class A and class B common shares of 13,708,199 on the grant date, subject to adjustment as set forth in the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares grant agreement. These shares are fully vested and non-forfeitable. The class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares have the same voting rights as the class A common shares and are entitled to ordinary cash dividends or other regular distributions in the same manner as both the class A and class B common shares. Other than distributions made in connection with a change of control transaction, the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares are also entitled to receive any special dividends or distributions that may be declared by the Board in the same manner as the class A and class B common shares provided the distribution relates solely to Company profits accrued since the grant date and does not result in the reduction of the threshold amount. Unless otherwise determined by the Board and the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors, the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares may not be assigned, sold, pledged, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner until the occurrence of a change of control transaction. Upon a change of control transaction, the holders of shares, including the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares shall be entitled to receive distributions, if any, from the proceeds of the sale of the Company or the Company’s assets in the following order:

first, holders of Series A Cumulative Fixed Rate Perpetual Preferred Shares receive the sum of the Unpaid Priority Return and the Unreturned Liquidation Preference (each as defined in the Series A Preferred Shares Designation) with respect to their Series A Cumulative Fixed Rate Perpetual Preferred Shares;

second, holders of class A and class B common shares (other than the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares) receive distributions equal to the Threshold Amount less the total amount of any special distributions or special dividends paid by the Company to holders of class A and class B common shares (other than the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares) following the grant date that relate solely to the capital (not profits) of the Company (which amount shall be determined by the Board);

third, the holders of class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares receive 100% of distributions until the amount received per class A common shares designated as a class A-2 common shares is “caught up” to the amount received under step (2) by each class A common share; and

fourth, the class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares participate in distributions of profits, pro-rata with other common shareholders (otherwise in accordance with the LLCA).

Distribution Restrictions

The ability of Global Indemnity Group, LLC to pay distributions is subject to applicable federal and state laws and Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s LLCA. Distributions of cash or other assets of Global Indemnity Group, LLC may be paid to Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s shareholders out of Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s assets legally available therefor only when, and if determined by the Board. Each holder of Series A Preferred Shares (as defined in the LLCA) is entitled to a “Priority Return” (as defined in the applicable Share Designation). On each Distribution Date, Global Indemnity Group, LLC shall make a distribution to each holder of the Series A Preferred Shares out of, and subject to a determination by the Board that the Company has on the applicable Distribution Date, funds legally available therefor, payable in cash only, in an amount equal to the estimated amount necessary to reduce the Unpaid Priority Return of each Series A Preferred Share immediately after such Distribution Date to zero. All such distributions shall be made pro rata in relation to each such Series A Preferred Share’s Unpaid Priority Return.

Since Global Indemnity Group, LLC is a holding company and has no direct operations, its ability to pay distributions depends, in part, on the ability of its subsidiaries to generate income to pay dividends and interest on intercompany debt and maturities. The Company's insurance subsidiaries are subject to significant regulatory restrictions limiting their ability to declare and pay dividends. Global Indemnity Investments, Inc. is dependent on generating investment income in order to pay a dividend to Global Indemnity Group, LLC. See Note 19 for additional information regarding dividend limitations imposed on the Company's insurance subsidiaries.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Company is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The Company maintains insurance and reinsurance coverage for such risks in amounts that it considers adequate. However, there can be no assurance that the insurance and reinsurance coverage that the Company maintains is sufficient or will be available in adequate amounts or at a reasonable cost. The Company does not believe that the resolution of any currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or taken as a whole, will have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

There is a greater potential for disputes with reinsurers who are in runoff. Some of the Company’s reinsurers have operations that are in runoff, and therefore, the Company closely monitors those relationships. The Company anticipates that, similar to the rest of the insurance and reinsurance industry, it will continue to be subject to litigation and arbitration proceedings in the ordinary course of business.

Commitments

In 2014, the Company entered into a $50 million commitment to purchase an alterna tive investment vehicle which is comprised of European non-performing loans. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has an unfunded commitment of$11.2 million. Since the investment period has concluded, the Company does not expect any capital calls will be made prospectively.

Other Commitments

The Company is party to a Management Agreement, as amended, with Fox Paine & Company, LLC, whereby in connection with certain management services provided to it by Fox Paine & Company, LLC, the Company agreed to pay an annual management fee to Fox Paine & Company, LLC. See Note 14 above for additional information pertaining to this management agreement.

  1. Share-Based Compensation Plans

The fair value method of accounting recognizes share-based compensation to employees and non-employee directors in the consolidated statements of operations using the grant-date fair value of the stock options and other equity-based compensation expensed over the requisite service and vesting period.

For the purpose of determining the fair value of stock option awards, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company elected a policy to accrue for compensation cost based on the number of awards that are expected to vest. An estimation of forfeitures is required when recognizing compensation expense which is then adjusted over the requisite service period should actual forfeitures differ from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures are recognized through a cumulative adjustment to compensation in the period of change.

Excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies associated with share-based payment awards are required to be recognized as an income tax benefit or expense in net income with the corresponding cash flows recognized as an operating activity in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow.

Share Incentive Plan

On June 14, 2023, the Company’s Shareholders approved the Global Indemnity Group, LLC 2023 Share Incentive Plan (“the 2023 Plan”). The primary purpose of the 2023 Plan is to provide Global Indemnity a competitive advantage in attracting, retaining, and motivating officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors, and to position Global Indemnity to offer incentives linked to the financial results of the Company’s business and increases in shareholder value. Under the 2023 Plan, the Company may issue up to 2.5 million class A common shares pursuant to awards granted under the Plan. The 2023 Plan replaced the Global Indemnity Group, LLC 2018 Share Incentive Plan, as amended and restated on August 28, 2020, which expired pursuant to its terms on March 4, 2023.

  1. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share was computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to class A common shares, class A common shares designated as class A-2 common shares, and class B common shares:

Diluted$1.75$3.12$1.83

The weighted average shares outstanding used to determine dilutive earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 does not include 483,338 and 550,000 options, respectively, which were deemed to be anti-dilutive. The year ended December 31, 2023 didnot have any options that were deemed to be anti-dilutive.

  1. Statutory Financial Information

GAAP differs in certain respects from Statutory Accounting Principles (“SAP”) as prescribed or permitted by the various U.S. state insurance departments. The principal differences between SAP and GAAP are as follows:

Under SAP, investments in debt securities are primarily carried at amortized cost, while under GAAP the Company records its debt securities at estimated fair value.

Under SAP, policy acquisition costs, such as commissions, premium taxes, fees and other costs of underwriting policies are charged to current operations as incurred, while under GAAP such costs are deferred and amortized on a pro rata basis over the period covered by the policy.

Under SAP, prepaid expenses and premium receivables over 90 days old are designated as "non-admitted assets" and are charged against surplus. Premium receivables, net of allowance for expected credit losses, and prepaid expenses are recorded as assets under GAAP.

Under SAP, net deferred income tax assets are admitted following the application of specified criteria, with the resulting admitted deferred tax amount being credited directly to surplus.

Under SAP, the costs and related receivables for guaranty funds and other assessments are recorded based on management's estimate of the ultimate liability and related receivable settlement, while under GAAP such costs are accrued when the liability is probable and reasonably estimable and the related receivable amount is based on future premium collections or policy surcharges from in-force policies.

Under SAP, unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses and unearned premiums are reported net of the effects of reinsurance transactions, whereas under GAAP, unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses and unearned premiums are reported gross of reinsurance.

Under SAP, a provision for reinsurance is charged to surplus based on the authorized status of reinsurers, available collateral, and certain aging criteria, whereas under GAAP, an allowance for uncollectible reinsurance is established based on Management’s best estimate of the collectability of reinsurance receivables. For statutory purposes, the Company uses a hybrid approach and will record the higher of these two methodologies.

Under SAP, the tax impact from the change in the federal tax rate as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017 is recorded through surplus, whereas under GAAP, the tax impact is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) issues model laws and regulations, many of which have been adopted by state insurance regulators, relating to: (a) risk-based capital ("RBC") standards; (b) codification of insurance accounting principles; (c) investment restrictions; and (d) restrictions on the ability of insurance companies to pay dividends.

The Company’s insurance subsidiaries are required by law to maintain certain minimum surplus on a statutory basis, and are subject to regulations under which payment of a dividend from statutory surplus is restricted and may require prior approval of regulatory authorities. Extraordinary dividends of $100.0 million, in aggregate, were declared by the Company's insurance subsidiaries for distribution to Belmont Holdings GX, Inc. in June 2025. The dividends by the Company’s insurance subsidiaries were approved or non-disapproved by the respective departments of insurance in Pennsylvania, Indiana and Virginia in July 2025. These dividends were paid in the third quarter of 2025.

Applying the current regulatory restrictions as of December 31,2025, the maximum amount of distributions that could be paid in 2026 without regulatory approval are as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)
CompanyMaximum Distribution
Penn-Patriot Insurance Company$4,726
Penn-America Insurance Company3,077
Penn-Star Insurance Company9,886
United National Insurance Company19,320
Diamond State Insurance Company7,310

The NAIC's RBC model provides a tool for insurance regulators to determine the levels of statutory capital and surplus an insurer must maintain in relation to its insurance and investment risks, as well as its reinsurance exposures, to assess the potential need for regulatory attention. The model provides four levels of regulatory attention, varying with the ratio of an insurance company's total adjusted capital to its authorized control level RBC ("ACLRBC"). If a company’s total adjusted capital is:

(a)

less than or equal to 200%, but greater than 150% of its ACLRBC (the "Company Action Level"), the company must submit a comprehensive plan to the regulatory authority proposing corrective actions aimed at improving its capital position;

(b)

less than or equal to 150%, but greater than 100% of its ACLRBC (the "Regulatory Action Level"), the regulatory authority will perform a special examination of the company and issue an order specifying the corrective actions that must be followed;

(c)

less than or equal to 100%, but greater than 70% of its ACLRBC (the "Authorized Control Level"), the regulatory authority may take any action it deems necessary, including placing the company under regulatory control; and

(d)

less than or equal to 70% of its ACLRBC (the "Mandatory Control Level"), the regulatory authority must place the company under its control.

Based on the standards currently adopted, the Company reported in its 2025 statutory filings that the capital and surplus of the insurance companies are above the prescribed Company Action Level RBC requirements.

The following is selected information for the Company’s insurance companies, net of intercompany eliminations, where applicable, as determined in accordance with SAP:

  1. Segment Information

On December 31, 2024, the Company executed an extensive internal business reorganization that marked a significant milestone, positioning the Company for growth and enhanced operational efficiency, increased statutory capital, and more efficient capital management resulting from de-stacking of the insurance companies.

As a result of this reorganization, the Company’s reportable segments are now structured undertwo holding companies: Katalyx Holdings and Belmont Holdings. See Note 1 for a description of these holding companies.

In the first quarter of 2025, the Company realigned its reportable segments to reflect changes in how the Company now manages its operations, reviews operating results, and allocates resources. The Company now hasthree reportable segments:

Agency and Insurance Services includes (i) four agencies focused on sourcing, underwriting, and servicing primary and assumed reinsurance business; and (ii) three specialized insurance service businesses providing technology, AI-enabled marketplace and claims services.

Belmont Insurance Companies - Core (“Belmont Core”)- insurance company operations for ongoing direct insurance and assumed reinsurance products written in the E&S marketplace (formerly the Penn-America segment).

Belmont Insurance Companies - Non-Core (“Belmont Non-Core”) -insurance company operations for lines of business that have been de-emphasized or are no longer being written (formerly the Non-Core Operations segment).

The entities within the Agency and Insurance Services segment, other than Sayata and Valyn Re LLC, executed new affiliated service agreements with Belmont Holdings GX, Inc. and its insurance company subsidiaries effective January 1, 2025. As a result, there areno revenues and expenses for Agency and Insurance Services in the comparable period in 2024 or 2023.

The Company's segments are reported on a stand-alone basis. Intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company analyzes the operating performance of each segment using the segment’s income (loss). Segment income (loss) does not equate to “net income (loss)” as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP but is the measure of segment profit or loss used by the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), the CEO, to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources, and consistent with authoritative guidance, is the measure of segment performance presented below.

Each segment follows the same accounting policies used for the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For further disclosure regarding the Company’s accounting policies, please see Note 4.

The following are tabulations of business segment information for the years ended December 31,2025, 2024, and 2023. Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the consolidated financial statements. Segment results for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 have been recast to conform to the new reportable segments.

  1. New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standard Adopted in 2025

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The standard requires disaggregated information about a company’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The Company adopted this guidance in its 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K on a retrospective basis. Since the new guidance only requires additional disclosures, the adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.

  1. Subsequent Events

Distribution

On March 5, 2026, the Board of Directors approved a dividend of $0.35 per common share payable on March 30, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 20, 2026.
