James River Group Holdings, Inc.

1. Accounting Policies

Organization

James River Group Holdings, Inc. (referred to as “JRG Holdings” or, with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a Delaware holding company organized for the purpose of acquiring and managing insurance entities.

The Company owns five insurance companies based in the United States (“U.S.”) focused on specialty insurance niches as described below:

•James River Group is a Delaware domiciled insurance holding company formed in 2002, which owns all of the Company’s U.S.-based subsidiaries, either directly or indirectly through one of its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries. James River Group oversees the Company’s U.S. insurance operations.

•James River Insurance Company (“James River Insurance”) is an Ohio domiciled excess and surplus lines insurance company that, with its wholly-owned insurance subsidiary, James River Casualty Company, is authorized to write business in every state and the District of Columbia.

•Falls Lake National Insurance Company (“Falls Lake National”) is an Ohio domiciled insurance company which wholly owns Stonewood Insurance Company (“Stonewood Insurance”), an Ohio domiciled company, and Falls Lake Fire and Casualty Company, a California domiciled company. Falls Lake National and its subsidiaries primarily write specialty admitted fronting and program business.

The Company previously owned JRG Reinsurance Company Ltd. (“JRG Re”), a Bermuda domiciled reinsurer, which comprised the former Casualty Reinsurance segment, and which, prior to the suspension of its underwriting activities in 2023, primarily provided non-catastrophe casualty reinsurance to U.S. third parties. On November 8, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to sell JRG Re. The sale closed on April 16, 2024 and resulted in the Company’s disposition of its casualty reinsurance business and related assets. The Company has no continued involvement with JRG Re following the sale. See Discontinued Operations below and Note 2 for additional disclosure.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and its subsidiaries from their respective dates of inception or acquisition, as applicable. Readers are urged to review the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a more complete description of the Company’s business and accounting policies. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements.

Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Discontinued Operations

The results of operations of a component of the Company are reported in discontinued operations when certain criteria are met as of the date of disposal, or earlier if classified as held-for-sale. The Company determined that the sale of JRG Re, which closed on April 16, 2024, represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company's operations. Accordingly, the results of JRG Re's operations have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in this interim report on Form 10-Q. See Note 2 for additional disclosure.

Estimates and Assumptions

Preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Those estimates are inherently subject to change, and actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

Variable Interest Entities

Entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk to allow the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support or in which the equity investors, as a group, do not have the characteristic of a controlling financial interest are referred to as variable interest entities (“VIE”). A VIE is consolidated by the variable interest holder that is determined to have the controlling financial interest (primary beneficiary) as a result of having both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of an entity subject to consolidation based on a qualitative assessment of the VIE’s capital structure, contractual terms, nature of the VIE’s operations and purpose, and the Company’s relative exposure to the related risks of the VIE on the date it becomes initially involved in the VIE. The Company reassesses its VIE determination with respect to an entity on an ongoing basis.

The Company holds interests in VIEs through certain equity method investments included in “other invested assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has determined that it should not consolidate any of the VIEs as it is not the primary beneficiary in any of the relationships. Although the investments resulted in the Company holding variable interests in the entities, they did not empower the Company to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities. The Company’s investments related to these VIEs totaled $7.2 million at March 31, 2026 and $7.3 million at December 31, 2025, representing the Company’s maximum exposure to loss.

Income Tax Expense

The Company’s U.S. federal income tax expense differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate of 21% to income before taxes primarily due to interest income on tax-advantaged state and municipal securities, dividends received income, and excess tax benefits and expenses on share based compensation. Prior to the Company's domestication from Bermuda to the U.S. on November 7, 2025, the Company's effective tax rate was impacted by the relative mix of income from continuing operations reported by country and the statutory tax rates of 0% and 21% imposed by Bermuda and the U.S., respectively. The Company did not receive a U.S. tax deduction for losses in Bermuda in the prior year period resulting from Bermuda holding company expenses and interest expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, our effective tax rate on (loss) income from continuing operations was (17.5%) and 31.4%, respectively. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was below the federal statutory income tax rate of 21% primarily because of excess tax expenses on share based compensation. RSU awards vest on the anniversary of their grant date which are predominately in the first quarter of each year.

Adopted Accounting Standards

There were no new accounting standards adopted in 2026 that materially impacted the Company's financial statements.

Prospective Accounting Standards

The guidance in ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses requires additional, disaggregated disclosure around certain income statement expense line items. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the disclosures in its financial statements.

The guidance in ASU 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software removes the concept of project stages and requires the capitalization of software costs when management has committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, but early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance, but does not expect that the standard will have a material impact on our financial statements.

2. Discontinued Operations

The Company previously entered into a stock purchase agreement with Fleming Intermediate Holdings LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (“Fleming”) pursuant to which Fleming agreed to purchase from the Company all of the common shares of JRG Reinsurance Company Ltd. (“JRG Re”). The sale of JRG Re, which previously comprised the remaining operations of the former Casualty Reinsurance segment, closed on April 16, 2024, and resulted in the disposition of the Company's casualty reinsurance business and related assets.

The Company determined that the sale of JRG Re represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on its operations. Accordingly, losses recognized on the disposal of JRG Re have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in this interim report on Form 10-Q.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the loss on disposal of $149,000 reflects additional selling costs incurred by the Company related to the sale of JRG Re net of a tax benefit. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the loss on disposal of $1.4 million included a final downward adjustment to the closing date purchase price plus interest of $520,000 and additional selling costs incurred by the Company related to the sale of JRG Re of $894,000.

3. Investments

The Company’s available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are summarized as follows:

The amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale investments in fixed maturity securities at March 31, 2026 are summarized, by contractual maturity, as follows:

Actual maturities may differ for some securities because borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without penalties.

The following table shows the Company’s gross unrealized losses and fair value for available-for-sale securities aggregated by investment category and the length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

At March 31, 2026, the Company held fixed maturity securities of 461 issuers that were in an unrealized loss position with a total fair value of $1,012.9 million and gross unrealized losses of $61.1 million. None of the fixed maturity securities with unrealized losses has ever missed, or been delinquent on a scheduled principal or interest payment. At March 31, 2026,100.0% of the Company’s fixed maturity security portfolio was rated “BBB-” or better (“investment grade”) by Standard & Poor’s or received an equivalent rating from another nationally recognized rating agency.

The Company periodically reviews its available-for-sale fixed maturities to determine whether any unrealized losses exist that are due to credit-related factors. An allowance for credit losses is established for any credit-related impairments, limited to the amount by which fair value is below amortized cost. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recognized in earnings and included in net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Unrealized losses that are not credit-related are recognized in other comprehensive income.

The Company considers the extent to which fair value is below amortized cost in determining whether a credit-related loss exists. The Company also considers the credit quality rating of the security, with a special emphasis on securities downgraded below investment grade. A comparison is made between the present value of expected future cash flows for a security and its amortized cost. If the present value of future expected cash flows is less than amortized cost, a credit loss is presumed to exist and an allowance for credit losses is established. Management may conclude that a qualitative analysis is sufficient to support its conclusion that the present value of the expected cash flows equals or exceeds a security’s amortized cost. As a result of this review, management concluded that there were no credit-related impairments of fixed maturity securities at March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, or March 31, 2025. For securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2026, management does not intend to sell the securities, andit is not “more likely than not” that the Company will be required to sell these securities before a recovery in their value to their amortized cost basis occurs.

The Company elected the fair value option to account for bank loan participations. Under the fair value option, bank loan participations are measured at fair value, and changes in unrealized gains and losses in bank loan participations are reported in the income statement as net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Applying the fair value option to the bank loan portfolio increases volatility in the Company's financial statements, but management believes it is less subjective and less burdensome to implement and maintain than ASU 2016-13, which would have otherwise been required.

At March 31, 2026, the Company's bank loan portfolio had an aggregate fair value of $153.3 million and unpaid principal of$163.4 million. Investment income on bank loan participations included in net investment income was $3.0 million and$3.2 millionfor thethree months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Net realized and unrealized losses on bank loan participations were$4.9 million and $2.3 millionfor thethree months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Management concluded that$256,000 of the net realized and unrealized losses were due to credit-related impairments for thethree months ended March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2025, management concluded that the unrealized losses of one bank loan issuer were due to a credit-related impairment. Losses due to credit-related impairments are determined based upon consultations and advice from the Company's specialized investment manager and consideration of any adverse situations that could affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of underlying collateral, and other relevant factors.

Bank loan participations generally provide a higher yield than our portfolio of fixed maturities and have a credit rating that is below investment grade (i.e. below “BBB-” for Standard & Poor’s) at the date of purchase. These bank loans are primarily senior, secured floating-rate debt rated “BB”, “B”, or “CCC” by Standard & Poor’s or an equivalent rating from another nationally recognized rating agency. These bank loans include assignments of, and participations in, performing and non-performing senior corporate debt generally acquired through primary bank syndications and in secondary markets. Bank loans consist of, but are not limited to, term loans, the funded and unfunded portions of revolving credit loans, and other similar loans and investments. Management believed that it was probable at the time that these loans were acquired that the Company would be able to collect all contractually required payments receivable.

Interest income on bank loan participations is accrued on the unpaid principal balance, and discounts and premiums on bank loan participations are amortized to income using the interest method. Generally, the accrual of interest on a bank loan participation is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest. A bank loan participation may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. Generally, bank loan participations are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is reported as investment income. There were no bank loans on nonaccrual status at March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

The Company’s net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are summarized as follows:

Realized investment gains or losses are determined on a specific identification basis.

The Company invests selectively in private debt and equity opportunities. These investments, which together comprise the Company’s other invested assets, are primarily focused in renewable energy, limited partnerships, and private debt.

(a)The Company's Excess & Surplus Lines segment owns equity interests ranging from 3.6% to 5.1% in various LLCs whose principal objective is capital appreciation and income generation from owning and operating renewable energy production facilities (wind and solar). The equity method is used to account for the Company’s LLC investments. Income for the LLCs primarily reflects adjustments to the carrying values of investments in renewable energy projects to their determined fair values. The fair value adjustments are included in revenues for the LLCs. Expenses for the LLCs are not significant and are comprised of administrative and interest expenses. The Company received cash distributions from these investments totaling $50,000 and $48,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

(b) The Company owns investments in limited partnerships that invest in concentrated portfolios including publicly-traded small cap equities, loans of middle market private equity sponsored companies, private equity general partnership interests, commercial mortgage-backed securities, specialty private credit, and tranches of distressed home loans. Income from the partnerships is recognized under the equity method of accounting. At March 31, 2026, the Company’s Excess & Surplus Lines segment has outstanding commitments to invest another $11.1 million in the limited partnerships.

(c) The Company's Excess & Surplus Lines segment has invested inten notes receivable for structured private credit. Interest ontwo notes maturing in 2031 is fixed at 4.25% and 5.25%. Interest ontwo notes maturing in 2035 is fixed at 6.50% and 8.00%. Interest onthree notes maturing in 2035 is fixed at 6.00%,7.00%, and 8.00%. Interest onthree notes maturing in 2064 is fixed at 6.79%,8.04%, and 9.04%. At March 31, 2026, the Company’s Excess & Surplus Lines segment has outstanding commitments to invest another $78.3 million in these notes.

On April 10, 2025, the Company entered into an investment agreement with Sixth Street, the parent of Enstar Group Limited (“Enstar”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company's Excess & Surplus Lines segment has invested $825,000 and $10.9 million within limited partnerships and collateralized notes receivable for structured private credit, respectively, at March 31, 2026. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company earned investment income of $204,000 from the investment and has outstanding commitments to invest another $63.1 million in the investment at March 31, 2026.

4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

On December 11, 2007, the Company completed an acquisition of James River Group by acquiring 100% of the outstanding shares of James River Group common stock, referred to herein as the “Merger”. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and goodwill and intangible assets were recognized by the Company as a result of the transaction. Goodwill resulting from the Merger was $181.8 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The gross carrying amounts and accumulated amortization for each major specifically identifiable intangible asset class were as follows:

5. Earnings Per Share

The following represents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per common share computations contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements:

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, due to the net loss from continuing operations, all potential common shares (including 871,874 related to outstanding RSUs and 13,521,634 related to outstanding Series A Preferred Shares)were anti-dilutive and excluded from thecalculation of diluted earnings per common share. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, all potential common shares (including 333,940 related to outstanding RSUs and 13,521,634 related to outstanding Series A Preferred Shares)were dilutive and included in thecalculation of diluted earnings per common share. The Company applies the if-converted method for the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares in the calculation of diluted earnings per share from continuing operations. If the Series A Preferred Shares are dilutive, the dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares are added back to income from continuing operations available to common shareholders in the numerator of the calculation and the additional common shares from an assumed conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares are added in the denominator of the calculation.

6. Reserve for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending reserve balances for losses and loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance, to the gross amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are presented gross of an allowance for credit losses on reinsurance balances of $1.7 million at March 31, 2026, $1.6 million at December 31, 2025, $1.5 million at March 31, 2025 and $1.2 million at December 31, 2024.

The Company experienced $165,000 of net favorable reserve development in the three months ended March 31, 2026 on the reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses held at December 31, 2025 (excluding adverse prior year development subject to deferral under retroactive reinsurance accounting - see Loss Portfolio Transfers and Adverse Development Covers below). This reserve development included $100,000 of net favorable development in the Excess & Surplus Lines segment and $65,000 of net favorable development in the Specialty Admitted Insurance segment.

The Company experienced $131,000 of net favorable reserve development in the three months ended March 31, 2025 on the reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses held at December 31, 2024 (excluding adverse prior year development subject to deferral under retroactive reinsurance accounting - see Loss Portfolio Transfers and Adverse Development Covers below). This reserve development included $10,000 of net favorable development in the Excess & Surplus Lines segment and $121,000 of net favorable development in the Specialty Admitted Insurance segment.

Loss Portfolio Transfers and Adverse Development Covers

Loss portfolio transfers and adverse development covers are forms of retroactive reinsurance utilized by the Company to transfer losses and loss adjustment expenses and associated risk of adverse development on covered subject business, as defined in the respective agreements, to an assuming reinsurer in exchange for a reinsurance premium. This reinsurance can bring economic finality (up to the limit of such agreements, if applicable) on the subject risks when they no longer meet the Company's risk appetite or are no longer aligned with the Company's risk management guidelines.

Commercial Auto Loss Portfolio Transfer

On September 27, 2021, James River Insurance and James River Casualty Company (together, “James River”) entered into a loss portfolio transfer transaction (the “Commercial Auto LPT”) with Aleka Insurance, Inc. (“Aleka”), a captive insurance company affiliate of Rasier LLC, to reinsure substantially all of the Excess & Surplus Lines segment's legacy portfolio of commercial auto policies previously issued to Rasier LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “Rasier”) for which James River is not otherwise indemnified by Rasier. The reinsurance coverage is structured to be fully collateralized, is not subject to an aggregate limit, and is subject to certain exclusions. The cumulative amounts ceded under the loss portfolio transfer was $451.4 million as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Combined Loss Portfolio Transfer and Adverse Development Cover

On July 2, 2024, James River entered into a Combined Loss Portfolio Transfer and Adverse Development Cover Reinsurance Contract (the “E&S ADC”) with State National Insurance Company, Inc. (“State National”). The transaction closed upon signing.

The E&S ADC was effective January 1, 2024 (the “Effective Date”) and applies to James River’s Excess & Surplus Lines segment casualty portfolio losses attaching to premium earned during 2010-2023 (both years inclusive), excluding, among others, losses related to commercial auto policies issued to a former large insured or its affiliates (the “Subject Business”). Pursuant to the E&S ADC, (a) State National reinsures 85% of losses paid on and after the Effective Date in respect of the Subject Business in excess of $716.6 million up to an aggregate limit of $467.1 million (with State National’s share of the aggregate limit being $397.0 million) in exchange for a reinsurance premium paid by James River equal to $313.2 million, and (b) James River continues to manage claims and to manage and collect the benefit of other existing third-party reinsurance on the Subject Business, which third-party reinsurance inures to the benefit of the E&S ADC. Additional adverse development of $35.0 million (net of the Company's 15% retention) recognized on the subject business of the E&S ADC in the year ended December 31, 2025 exhausted the remaining limit of the E&S ADC.

Adverse Development Cover

On November 11, 2024, Enstar, through its subsidiary Cavello Bay Reinsurance Limited (“Cavello Bay”), entered into an adverse development cover agreement with James River (“E&S Top Up ADC”), pursuant to which, in exchange for a premium of $52.8 million (less an amount equal to the federal excise tax payable on the premium), Cavello Bay reinsures, effective January 1, 2024,100% of the losses associated with James River’s Excess & Surplus Lines segment casualty portfolio losses attaching to premium earned during 2010-2023 (both years inclusive). The E&S Top Up ADC excludes losses related to commercial auto policies issued to a former large insured or its affiliates and is subject to a retention by James River of $1,183.7 million (the limit of the E&S ADC executed on July 2, 2024) and up to an aggregate limit of $75.0 million. The E&S Top Up ADC closed on December 23, 2024. The Company recognized a $52.8 million reduction in pre-tax income in connection with the adverse development cover upon closing. In 2025, $51.4 million of adverse development was ceded to the E&S Top Up ADC, reducing the aggregate limit remaining on the E&S Top Up ADC to $23.6 million at December 31, 2025. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, an additional $16.2 million of adverse development was ceded to the E&S Top Up ADC, further reducing the aggregate limit remaining on the E&S Top Up ADC to $7.5 million at March 31, 2026. Of the $16.2 million, $14.8 million was subject to deferral under retroactive reinsurance accounting.

Retroactive Reinsurance Accounting

The Company periodically reevaluates the remaining reserves subject to the Commercial Auto LPT, the E&S ADC, and the E&S Top Up ADC, and when recognized adverse prior year development on the subject business causes the cumulative amounts ceded under the agreements to exceed the consideration paid, the agreements move into a gain position subject to deferral under retroactive reinsurance accounting. Gains are deferred under retroactive reinsurance accounting and recognized in earnings in proportion to actual paid recoveries under the agreements using the recovery method. While the deferral of gains can introduce volatility in the Company's operating results in the short-term, over the life of the contract, we would expect no economic impact to the Company as long as the counterparty performs under the contract. The impact of retroactive reinsurance accounting is not indicative of the Company's current and ongoing operations.

The following tables summarize the retroactive reinsurance accounting for the Commercial Auto LPT, the E&S ADC, and the E&S Top Up ADC for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

7. Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

The following table summarizes the components of other comprehensive (loss) income:

In addition to the net realized investment gains on available-for-sale fixed maturities disclosed above, the Company also recognized net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on its investments in bank loan participations and equity securities in the respective periods. Refer to Note 3 for disclosure of these amounts.

8. Contingent Liabilities

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, including commercial matters and litigation regarding insurance claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Company is involved from time to time in legal actions which seek extra-contractual damages, punitive damages or penalties, including claims alleging bad faith in the handling of insurance claims. The Company believes that the outcome of such matters, individually and in the aggregate, is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On March 11, 2024, the Company filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, Commercial Division against Fleming relating to the Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Fleming agreed to purchase all of the outstanding common shares of JRG Re (the “Transaction”). The complaint alleges that Fleming breached the Stock Purchase Agreement by its refusal to close the Transaction on March 1, 2024 as required under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and seeks specific performance of Fleming’s obligation to complete the Transaction and an award of damages. The Company subsequently filed a motion for preliminary injunction to require Fleming to fulfill its contractual obligation to close the Transaction, and on April 6, 2024 the Court granted the Company’s motion and ordered Fleming to complete the Transaction on or prior to April 16, 2024. On April 8, 2024, Fleming filed a notice of appeal of the preliminary injunction, which Fleming withdrew on October 9, 2024. The Transaction closed on April 16, 2024. On April 19, 2024, Fleming filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On May 9, 2024, the Company filed an amended complaint seeking, among other things, specific performance and damages suffered as a result of Fleming's breach of the Stock Purchase Agreement. On June 6, 2024, Fleming filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, on July 3, 2024 the Company filed an opposition to the motion to dismiss, on July 24, 2024 Fleming filed its reply to the opposition, and on October 29, 2024 the court heard oral argument on the motion to dismiss.

On July 15, 2024, Fleming filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York against JRG Holdings and certain of its officers, asserting claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, common law fraud, and breaches of contract, and seeking unspecified monetary damages, including compensatory, consequential and punitive damages, all associated with Fleming's purchase of JRG Re pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. On July 31, 2024, Fleming filed an amended complaint, on September 13, 2024, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, and on October 18, 2024 Fleming filed a second amended complaint. On November 15, 2024, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint, on December 23, 2024 Fleming filed an opposition to the motion to dismiss, on January 17, 2025 the Company filed its reply to Fleming's opposition, on July 2, 2025 the court heard oral argument on the motion to dismiss, and on July 17, 2025 the court granted the Company's motion to dismiss. On August 14, 2025, Fleming filed a motion for reconsideration, on August 28, 2025 the Company filed its opposition to Fleming's motion for reconsideration, and on September 4, 2025, Fleming filed its reply to the Company's opposition. On December 2, 2025, the court denied Fleming's motion for reconsideration and on December 22, 2025 Fleming filed a notice of appeal. Fleming filed its opening brief in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on March 13, 2026 and the Company’s response brief is due June 12, 2026. Fleming’s reply brief is due within 21 days after the filing of the Company’s response brief. The Company believes that it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

Amounts Recoverable from Reinsurers

The Company’s insurance segments remain liable to policyholders if its reinsurers are unable to meet their contractual obligations under applicable reinsurance agreements. The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses for our current estimate of uncollectible reinsurance recoverables. At March 31, 2026, the allowance for credit losses on reinsurance recoverables was $1.7 million. To minimize exposure to significant losses from reinsurance insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentrations of credit risk. The Company generally seeks to purchase reinsurance from reinsurers with A.M. Best financial strength ratings of “A-” (Excellent) or better. The Company’s reinsurance contracts generally require reinsurers that are not authorized as reinsurers under U.S. state insurance regulations or that experience rating downgrades from rating agencies below specified levels to fund their share of the Company’s ceded outstanding losses and loss adjustment expense reserves, typically through the use of irrevocable and unconditional letters of credit. In fronting arrangements, which the Company conducts through its Specialty Admitted Insurance segment, the Company is subject to credit risk with regard to insurance companies who act as reinsurers for us in such arrangements. The Company requires collateral, in the form of a trust arrangement or letter of credit, to secure the obligations of the insurance entity for whom it is fronting.

Amounts Recoverable from an Indemnifying Party and Reinsurer on Legacy Commercial Auto Book

James River previously issued a set of commercial auto insurance contracts (the “Rasier Commercial Auto Policies”) to Rasier under which James River pays losses and loss adjustment expenses on the contracts. James River has indemnity agreements with Rasier (non-insurance entities) (collectively, the “Indemnity Agreements”) and is contractually entitled to reimbursement for the portion of the losses and loss adjustment expenses paid on behalf of Rasier under the Rasier Commercial Auto Policies and other expenses incurred by James River. In addition, on September 27, 2021, James River entered into the Commercial Auto LPT with Aleka to reinsure substantially all of the Rasier Commercial Auto Policies for which James River is not otherwise indemnified by Rasier under the Indemnity Agreements.

Each of Rasier and Aleka are required to post collateral equal to 102% of James River's estimate of the respective party's obligations in trusts pursuant to the terms of the Indemnity Agreements and the Commercial Auto LPT, respectively. At March 31, 2026, the total balance of collateral securing Rasier's obligations under the Indemnity Agreements was $35.2 million and Aleka's obligations under the Commercial Auto LPT was $16.8 million. At March 31, 2026, the total reinsurance recoverables under the Commercial Auto LPT was $9.9 million.

In connection with the execution of the Commercial Auto LPT, James River and Aleka entered into an administrative services agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with a third party claims administrator (the “Administrator”) pursuant to which the Administrator handles the claims on the Rasier Commercial Auto Policies for the remaining life of those claims. The claims paid by the Administrator are reimbursable by James River, and pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, James River established a loss fund trust account for the benefit of the Administrator (the “Loss Fund Trust”) to collateralize its claims payment reimbursement obligations. James River funds the Loss Fund Trust using funds withdrawn from the trust account collateralizing the Indemnity Agreements (the “Indemnity Trust”), funds withdrawn from the trust account collateralizing Commercial Auto LPT (the “LPT Trust”), and its own funds, in each case in an amount equal to the pro rata portion of the required Loss Fund Trust balance attributable to the Indemnity Agreements, the Commercial Auto LPT and James River’s existing third party reinsurance agreements, respectively. At March 31, 2026, the balance in the Loss Fund Trust was $8.6 million, including $5.3 million representing collateral supporting Rasier’s obligations under the Indemnity Agreements and $2.2 million representing collateral supporting Aleka’s obligations under the Commercial Auto LPT. Funds posted to the Loss Fund Trust are classified as restricted cash equivalents on the Company's balance sheet.

While the Commercial Auto LPT brings economic finality to substantially all of the Rasier Commercial Auto Policies, the Company has credit exposure to Rasier and Aleka under the Indemnity Agreements and the Commercial Auto LPT if the estimated losses and expenses of the Rasier Commercial Auto Policies grow at a faster pace than the growth in the collateral balances. In addition, the Company has credit exposure if its estimates of future losses and loss adjustment expenses and other amounts recoverable under the Indemnity Agreements and the Commercial Auto LPT, which are the basis for establishing the collateral balances, are lower than actual amounts paid or payable. The amount of the Company's credit exposure in any of these instances could be material. To mitigate these risks, the Company closely and frequently monitors its exposure compared to the collateral held, and requests additional collateral in accordance with the terms of the Commercial Auto LPT and Indemnity Agreements when its analysis indicates that it has uncollateralized exposure.

9. Segment Information

The Company’s continuing operations are comprised ofthree reportable segments, two of which are separately managed business units and the third (“Corporate and Other”) includes the Company’s remaining operations. The Excess & Surplus Lines segment primarily offers commercial excess and surplus lines liability and excess property insurance products. The Specialty Admitted Insurance segment offers specialty admitted fronting and program business and, prior to the sale of the Company's renewal rights in 2023, workers’ compensation insurance coverage. The Corporate and Other segment consists of certain management and treasury activities of James River Group and JRG Holdings including public company expenses, expenses for our Board of Directors, long-term incentive compensation for the full Company, interest expense associated with senior debt and Junior Subordinated Debt, and investment income. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Prior to entering into a definitive agreement to sell JRG Re on November 8, 2023, JRG Re was considered a reportable segment (the “Casualty Reinsurance” segment). After entering into the agreement to sell JRG Re, the Company no longer considers Casualty Reinsurance to be a reportable segment, but instead it is reported as discontinued operations. The segment information below excludes discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Segment profit (loss) is measured by underwriting profit (loss), which is generally defined as net earned premiums and gross fee income (in specific instances when the Company is not retaining insurance risk) in “other income” in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) less loss and loss adjustment expenses on business not subject to deferral under retroactive reinsurance accounting (see Retroactive Reinsurance Accountingin Note 6 - Reserve for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses) and other operating expenses. Other operating expenses include the underwriting, acquisition, and insurance expenses of the operating segments and, for consolidated underwriting profit, the expenses of the Corporate and Other segment. Other operating expenses for the Corporate and Other segment include personnel costs associated with the holding companies, professional fees, long-term incentive compensation (including share-based compensation) for the Company, public company expenses and various other corporate expenses. Net commissions in the table below are net of amounts deferred as deferred policy acquisition costs. Employee compensation includes both cash and share-based compensation, as well as employer expenses related to payroll taxes and benefits, and is net of amounts allocated to losses and loss adjustment expenses and amounts deferred. All other operating expenses include, amongst other expenses, costs for insurance, outside professional fees including legal, audit, and consulting, office rent, bad debt expense, and taxes, licenses and fees on business written. Segment results are reported prior to the effects of intercompany pooling agreements and intercompany reinsurance agreements. All gross written premiums and net earned premiums for all periods presented were generated from policies issued to U.S. based insureds. Segment revenues for each reportable segment include net earned premiums, net investment income, and realized and unrealized (losses) gains on investments.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) has final authority over segment resource allocation decisions and performance assessment, and consequently, is identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CEO considers segment underwriting profit (loss) in the annual budget and forecasting process, and in monthly financial reviews of actual segment results compared to budget and prior year periods in order to assess segment performance and make strategic operating decisions regarding the business written by the segments, the allocation of capital and personnel to the segments, and compensation for segment employees. The segment information presented below aligns with the information that is presented regularly to the CEO.

The following table summarizes the Company’s segment results:

The following table reconciles the underwriting profit (loss) of the operating segments by individual segment to consolidated income from continuing operations before income taxes:

10. Other Operating Expenses and Other Expenses

Other operating expenses consist of the following:

Other expenses of $128,000 and $563,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, primarily consist of certain nonoperating expenses including legal and other professional fees and other expenses related to various strategic initiatives.

11. Senior Debt

On June 12, 2025, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated July 7, 2023 (the “Previous Credit Agreement”), which provided for a$212.5 million unsecured revolving credit facility and a$45.0 million secured revolving credit facility.

The Credit Agreement provides for a$212.5 million unsecured revolving credit facility available for general corporate purposes and matures on June 12, 2028. Following the sale of JRG Re, the Company no longer had a need for the secured revolving credit facility provided by the Previous Credit Agreement. The interest rates applicable to the loans under the Credit Agreement are generally based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a specified margin (2.75% at March 31, 2026)based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). In addition, the Company will pay an unused facility fee on each lender’s commitment (0.3% at March 31, 2026).

At March 31, 2026, the Company had a drawn balance of $210.8 million outstanding under the Credit Agreement, including $25.0 million previously borrowed on January 27, 2025 under the Previous Credit Agreement which was contributed to our regulated insurance entities.

The Credit Agreement provides for an accordion feature that permits the Company to request that one or more lenders (without the consent of the other lenders) or new financial institutions (with the consent of the Administrative Agent) provide it with increases in the credit facility of up to an aggregate of$30.0 million, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The Credit Agreement also includes financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and minimum consolidated net worth, risk-based capital ratio and financial strength rating requirements with which the Company was in compliance at March 31, 2026.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, James River Group entered into a Continuing Guaranty of Payment dated June 12, 2025 pursuant to which James River Group guarantees the payment and performance of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement and other loan documents.

12. Fair Value Measurements

Three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value of financial instruments: (1) Level 1: quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets, (2) Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument, and (3) Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable for the asset or liability.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The fair values of fixed maturity securities, equity securities, and bank loan participations have been determined using fair value prices provided by the Company's investment accounting services provider or investment managers, who utilize internationally recognized independent pricing services. The prices provided by the independent pricing services are generally based on observable market data in active markets (e.g. broker quotes and prices observed for comparable securities). Values for U.S. Treasury and publicly-traded equity securities are generally based on Level 1 inputs which use the market approach valuation technique. The values for all other fixed maturity securities (including state and municipal securities and obligations of U.S. government corporations and agencies) and bank loan participations generally incorporate significant Level 2 inputs, and in some cases, Level 3 inputs, using the market approach and income approach valuation techniques. There have been no changes in the Company’s use of valuation techniques since December 31, 2024.

The Company reviews fair value prices provided by its outside investment accounting service provider or investment managers for reasonableness by comparing the fair values provided by the managers to those provided by its investment custodian. The Company also reviews and monitors changes in unrealized gains and losses. The Company has not historically adjusted security prices. The Company obtains an understanding of the methods, models and inputs used by the investment managers and independent pricing services, and controls are in place to validate that prices provided represent fair values. The Company’s control process includes, but is not limited to, initial and ongoing evaluation of the methodologies used, a review of specific securities and an assessment for proper classification within the fair value hierarchy, and obtaining and reviewing internal control reports for the investment manager that obtains fair values from independent pricing services.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 are summarized below:

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 are summarized below:

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, equity securities, and bank loan participations measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) is shown below:

The Company heldone equity security at March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 for which the fair value was determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The fair values for the equity security (disclosed above) were obtained from our asset manager, who used an internal model to value the security.

Transfers out of Level 3 occur when the Company is able to obtain reliable prices from pricing vendors for securities for which the Company was previously unable to obtain reliable prices. Transfers in to Level 3 occur when the Company is unable to obtain reliable prices for securities from pricing vendors and instead must use broker price quotes to value the securities.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at the beginning of the reporting period.

In the determination of the fair value for bank loan participations and certain high yield bonds, the Company’s investment manager endeavors to obtain data from multiple external pricing sources. External pricing sources may include brokers, dealers and price data vendors that provide a composite price based on prices from multiple dealers. Such external pricing sources typically provide valuations for normal institutional size trading units of such securities using methods based on market transactions for comparable securities, and various relationships between securities, as generally recognized by institutional dealers. For investments in which the investment manager determines that only one external pricing source is appropriate or if only one external price is available, the relevant investment is generally recorded at fair value based on such price.

Investments for which external sources are not available or are determined by the investment manager not to be representative of fair value are recorded at fair value as determined by the Company, with input from its investment managers and valuation specialists as considered necessary. In determining the fair value of such investments, the Company considers one or more of the following factors: type of security held, convertibility or exchangeability of the security, redeemability of the security (including the timing of redemptions), application of industry accepted valuation models, recent trading activity, liquidity, estimates of liquidation value, purchase cost, and prices received for securities with similar terms of the same issuer or similar issuers. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no investments for which external sources were unavailable to determine fair value.

The carrying values and fair values of financial instruments are summarized below:

The fair values of fixed maturity securities, equity securities, and bank loan participations have been determined using quoted market prices for securities traded in the public market or prices using bid or closing prices for securities not traded in the public marketplace. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturity.

The fair values of other invested assets-notes receivable, senior debt, and junior subordinated debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were determined by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows under the terms of the note agreements or debt agreements, as applicable, discounted at an estimated market rate of interest at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company also utilized an internally developed valuation model based on the spread of a comparable market index to determine the fair value of certain other invested assets-notes receivable at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The fair values of senior debt, junior subordinated debt, and invested assets-notes receivable, classified in other invested assets, at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were determined using inputs to the valuation methodology that are unobservable (Level 3).

13. Series A Preferred Shares

The Company has 112,500 7% Series A Perpetual Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares, par value $0.00125 per share (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Series A Preferred Shares were issued on March 1, 2022 and are held by GPC Partners Investments (Thames) LP (“GPC Partners”), an affiliate of Gallatin Point Capital LLC.

The Series A Preferred Shares rank senior to our common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on the distribution of assets on any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, upon which the holders of Series A Preferred Shares would receive the greater of the $1,000 liquidation preference per share (the “Liquidation Preference”) plus accrued and unpaid dividends, or the amount they would have received if they had converted all of their Series A Preferred Shares to common stock immediately before such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to a dividend at the rate of 7% of the Liquidation Preference per annum, paid in cash, in-kind in common stock or in Series A Preferred Shares, at the Company’s election. On October 1, 2029, and each five-year anniversary thereafter, the dividend rate will reset to a rate equal to thefive-year U.S. treasury rate plus 5.2%, subject to a cap of 8.0%. Dividends accrue and are payable quarterly. Cash dividends of $2.0 million were declared on the Series A Preferred Shares in each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible at the option of the holders thereof at any time into common stock at a conversion price of $8.32, making the Series A Preferred Shares convertible into 13,521,634 shares of common stock. The conversion price is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, including cash dividends on the common stock above specified levels.

The Certificate of Designations setting forth the terms of the Series A Preferred Shares (the “Certificate of Designations”) limits the Company's ability to pay dividends to its common shareholders. If the Company pays cash dividends of more than $0.05 per share of common stock per quarter, without the consent of at least the majority of the Series A Preferred Shares then outstanding, the Company will be required to reduce the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Shares. Additionally, the payment of cash dividends in excess of $0.10 per share of common stock per quarter is not permitted if the dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares for that quarter are not paid in cash, unless the Company’s insurance subsidiaries satisfy certain capital requirements. Share dividends payable on the common stock to the Company's shareholders also trigger a reduction of the conversion price applicable to the Series A Preferred Shares. None of the triggers that would result in adjustments to the conversion price have been met at March 31, 2026.

If at any time the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) per share of common stock is greater than 200% of the then applicable conversion price for at least twenty (20) consecutive trading days, the Company will be able to elect to convert (a “Mandatory Conversion”) all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares into common stock. In the case of a Mandatory Conversion, each Series A Preferred Share then outstanding will be converted into (i) the number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (A) the sum of the Liquidation Preference and the accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to such Series A Preferred Share to be converted divided by (B) the conversion price of such share in effect as of the date of the Mandatory Conversion plus (ii) cash in lieu of fractional shares.

Upon any Mandatory Conversion on or before March 1, 2027, all dividends that would have accrued from the date of the Mandatory Conversion to the later of March 1, 2027 or the last day of the eighth quarter following the date of the Mandatory Conversion, the last eight quarters of which will be discounted to present value using a discount rate of 3.5% per annum, and will be immediately payable in common stock, valued at the average of the daily VWAP of the Company’s common stock during thefive (5) trading days immediately preceding the conversion.

The holders of the Series A Preferred Shares may require the Company to repurchase their shares upon the occurrence of certain change of control events. Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), each holder of outstanding Series A Preferred Shares will be permitted to, at its election, (i) effective as of immediately prior to the Fundamental Change, convert all or a portion of its Series A Preferred Shares into common stock, or (ii) require the Company to repurchase any or all of such holder’s Series A Preferred Shares at a purchase price per Series A Preferred Share equal to the Liquidation Preference of such Series A Preferred Share plus accrued and unpaid dividends plus, if the Fundamental Change repurchase occurs prior to March 1, 2027, all dividends that would have accrued up to such date, but that have not been paid. The repurchase price will be payable in cash.

Because the Company may be required to repurchase all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Shares at the option of the holder upon the occurrence of certain change of control events, the Series A Preferred Shares are classified as mezzanine equity in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and recognized at their determined fair value of $133.1 million. The Series A Preferred Shares were valued using a lattice method commonly applied to value preferred shares. The Series A Preferred Shares are classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy due to the presence of significant unobservable inputs.

The Certificate of Designations limits transfers of the Series A Preferred Shares without the Company’s consent if, after the transfer, the transferee would hold 9.9% or more of the voting equity of the Company or, in the event of an A.M. Best downgrade of James River Insurance Company below A- (Excellent),19.9% of the voting equity.

Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, GPC Partners has the right to designate one member of the Board (the “Series A Designee”). GPC Partners designated Matthew Botein as the Series A Designee, and Mr. Botein was approved by the Board as a director with a term that expired at the 2024 annual general meeting of the Company’s shareholders. Mr. Botein was re-elected as a director at each of the 2024 and 2025 annual meetings of shareholders for a term expiring at the following year's annual meeting.

14. Capital Stock and Equity Awards

Common Shares

Total common shares outstanding increased from 45,968,584 at December 31, 2025 to 46,236,856 at March 31, 2026, reflecting 268,272 common shares issued in the three months ended March 31, 2026 related to vesting of RSUs.

Dividends

The Company declared the following dividends on common shares during the first three months of 2026 and 2025:

Included in the total dividends for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are $22,000 and $18,000, respectively, of dividend equivalents on unvested RSUs. The balance of dividends payable on unvested RSUs was $90,000 at March 31, 2026 and $127,000 at December 31, 2025.

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company’s shareholders have approved various equity incentive plans, including the 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2014 LTIP”) and the 2014 Non-Employee Director Incentive Plan (“2014 Director Plan”) (collectively, the “Plans”). All awards issued under the Plans are issued at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Employees are eligible to receive non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, share appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted shares, RSUs, and other awards under the 2014 LTIP. The 2014 LTIP was amended on October 23, 2025, increasing the number of shares available for issuance under the 2014 LTIP by 1,650,000 shares. Following the amendment, the maximum number of shares available for issuance under the 2014 LTIP is 7,157,650, and at March 31, 2026,1,328,128 shares are available for grant.

On July 26, 2022, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a new long-term incentive plan (the “LTI Plan”) under the 2014 LTIP. The LTI Plan is designed to align compensation of designated senior officers of the Company with Company performance and shareholder interests over the long-term. Awards under the LTI Plan are made in the form of performance restricted share units (a “PRSU”) and service based restricted share units (RSUs).

Each PRSU represents a contingent right to receiveone Company share of common stock based upon the level of achievement of certain performance metrics during specified three-year fiscal performance periods, with payout for achievement of threshold, target and maximum performance levels set at 50%,100% and 200% of the target number of PRSUs, respectively. Initial PRSU awards are granted at the 100% target performance level. The Company projects the level of achievement for each award during the relevant performance period and periodically adjusts the number of outstanding awards to reflect the number of awards expected to vest.

Non-employee directors of the Company are eligible to receive non-qualified stock options, share appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted shares, RSUs, and other awards under the 2014 Director Plan. The 2014 Director Plan was amended on October 23, 2025, increasing the number of shares available for issuance under the 2014 LTIP by 225,000 shares. Following the amendment, the maximum number of shares available for issuance under the 2014 Director Plan is 475,000, and at March 31, 2026,176,273 shares are available for grant.

Generally, awards issued under the 2014 LTIP and 2014 Director Plan vest immediately in the event that an award recipient is terminated without Cause (as defined in the applicable plans), and in the case of the 2014 LTIP for Good Reason (as defined in the applicable plans), at any time following a Change in Control (as defined in the applicable plans).

RSUs

The following table summarizes RSU activity:

Outstanding RSUs granted to employees generally vest ratably over athree year vesting period. RSUs granted to non-employee directors generally have aone year vesting period. The holders of RSUs are entitled to dividend equivalents. The dividend equivalents are settled in cash at the same time that the underlying RSUs vest and are subject to the same risk of forfeiture as the underlying shares. The fair value of the RSUs granted is generally based on the market price of the underlying shares at the date of grant. The RSUs granted in 2026 and 2025 include 372,873 and 620,108 PRSU awards, respectively. Initial PRSU awards are granted at the 100% target performance level. The Company projects the level of achievement for each award during the performance period and periodically adjusts the number of outstanding awards to reflect the number of awards expected to vest.

Compensation Expense

Share based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The amount of expense and related tax benefit is summarized below:

At March 31, 2026, the Company had $11.4 million of unrecognized share based compensation expense expected to be charged to earnings over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

15. Subsequent Events
