NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2026
- ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“GLRE” or “Parent” and, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Company”) was incorporated as an exempted company under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands on July 13, 2004. The Company is a global specialty property and casualty reinsurer headquartered in the Cayman Islands. The ordinary shares of GLRE are listed on Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GLRE.”
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. The financial statements include the accounts of GLRE and the consolidated financial statements of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.
In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations as at the end of and for the periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.
Tabular dollars are in thousands, with the exception of per share amounts or otherwise noted. All amounts are reported in U.S. dollars.
- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There were no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies subsequent to its 2025 Form 10-K.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This ASU 2024-03 requires more detailed disclosures about the type of expenses (including employee compensation, and depreciation / amortization) in commonly presented expense captions in the condensed consolidated income statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. As this ASU relates solely to financial statement disclosure, its adoption will not impact the Company's results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

Estimates for Catastrophe Events
At March 31, 2026, the Company’s net reserves for losses and LAE include estimated amounts for several catastrophe and weather-related events (the “CAT losses”). The magnitude and volume of losses arising from CAT events is inherently uncertain. Adjustments are recorded in the period in which they are identified. Accordingly, actual losses for CAT events may ultimately differ materially from the Company’s current estimates.
CAT events in 2026
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred CAT losses of $5.0 million relating to the Middle East conflict. There were no loss recoveries associated with this event.
CAT events in 2025
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company incurred CAT losses of $27.0 million relating to the California wildfires. There were no loss recoveries associated with this event.
Prior Year Reserve Development
The Company’s net favorable (adverse) prior year reserve development arises from changes to estimates for losses and LAE related to loss events that occurred in previous calendar years. The following table presents net prior year reserve development by segment and consolidated:
| Favorable (Adverse) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open Market | Innovations | Total Segments | Corporate | Total Consolidated | |
| Three months ended March 31, 2026 | $2,847 | $(358) | $2,489 | $— | $2,489 |
| Three months ended March 31, 2025 | $(4,896) | $567 | $(4,329) | $111 | $(4,218) |
Open Market Segment
The net favorable reserve development for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was composed of $5.8 million better than expected loss emergence predominantly on the multiline business (mostly FAL business for 2024 and 2025 accident years) and specialty business (mostly 2022-2024 accident years). This was partially offset by $3.0 million of reserve strengthening predominantly on the casualty line (various accident years) due to current economic and social inflation trends.
The net adverse reserve development for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was composed of $23.2 million of reserve strengthening predominantly on the casualty line (various accident years) due to economic and social inflation trends. This was partially offset by $18.3 million of favorable reserve development on property (mostly 2024 accident year) and specialty lines (mostly 2022-2024 accident years) due to better than expected loss emergence.
Innovations Segment
The net adverse reserve development for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was composed of $0.6 million of reserve strengthening predominantly on the multiline business (Syndicate 3456 for 2023-2024 accident years) due to worse than expected loss emergence. This was partially offset by $0.3 million of favorable reserve development predominantly on the financial line.
