Current report
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, AM Best and Fitch affirmed our ratings and revised our outlook to Positive from Stable. These revisions reflect our improved balance sheet strength and continued underwriting performance improvement.
Current report
The decrease in net underwriting results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by increased catastrophe losses from the California wildfires, partially offset by increased favorable development in Property, mainly from reserve releases relating to prior year’s catastrophe events, and in A&H, due to lower than expected reported attritional losses.
Current report
The decrease in total invested assets and cash was primarily driven by the use of $483.0 million of investments to fund the share repurchase from CM Bermuda Limited (“CM Bermuda”) under a securities purchase agreement entered into in
Current report
Net investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were mainly driven by interest income of $63.4 million and $76.9 million, respectively, on our debt securities and short-term investments. The decrease is driven by a lower asset base after executing various share repurchase transactions in 2024 and 2025.
Current report
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we did not incur a loss on settlement and change in fair value of liability classified instruments as all instruments were previously settled or exercised, compared to a loss of $15.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 due to the change in fair value of the Merger Warrants primarily driven by the increase in our share price.
Current report
The increase in income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 despite the decrease in pre-tax income is a result of higher income in higher taxed jurisdictions. Further, as of January 1, 2025, a 15% corporate income tax is applied to the Company’s Bermuda operations as a result of the enactment of the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023.
Current report
Gross premiums written increased by $109.2 million, or 12.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net premiums written increased by $124.8 million, or 19.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net premiums earned increased by $108.0 million, or 20.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increases in premium volume were primarily driven by our Insurance & Services segment, including growth across A&H, expansion of Surety within our Other Specialties business line and continued strategic organic and new program growth in our international business.
Current report
The decrease in net underwriting results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by increased catastrophe losses of $63.1 million or 21.8 percentage points on the combined ratio, primarily from the California wildfires, compared to minimal losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This was partially offset by increased favorable prior year development of $31.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily driven by favorable development in Property, mainly from reserve releases relating to prior year’s catastrophe events, compared to $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily driven by decreased ultimate losses inthe Credit reinsurance portfolio.
Current report
Gross premiums written increased by $110.8 million, or 21.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily driven by growth across A&H, expansion of Surety within our Other Specialties business line and continued strategic organic and new program growth in our international business.
Current report
The changes in premium volume for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are primarily driven by the decreases in business from specific workers’ compensation and cyber programs that were placed in runoff in the first quarter of 2024 and are expected to have limited volume in 2025.
Current report
The decrease in underwriting income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 is primarily the result of decreased underwriting activity following the runoff existing portfolios.
Current report
Cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily consisted of $490.8 million in payments for share repurchases. Cash flows provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily consisted of $15.6 million of proceeds from the exercise of options, partially offset by $4.0 million for cash dividends paid to preference shareholders and $3.0 million for payments on deposit liability contracts.

Previous report
The improvement in net underwriting results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by increased favorable prior year loss reserve development and a more favorable commission ratio. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, favorable prior year loss reserve development was $30.6 million from favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in A&H due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, compared to $24.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the March 2, 2023 loss portfolio transfer transaction (“2023 LPT”).
Previous report
The decrease in net underwriting results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by lower favorable prior year loss reserve development.

Excluding the favorable development linked to the 2023 LPT, underwriting income increased by $19.8 million primarily resulting from favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in A&H and our runoff business due to lower than expected reported attritional losses. This increase was partially offset by higher acquisition costs from business mix changes, including the growth of Insurance & Services.
