Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)Nature of business, organization structure and basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the accounts of Enact Holdings, Inc. (“EHI,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”). EHI is a subsidiary of Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth”) and has been since EHI’s incorporation in Delaware in 2012. In September 2021, we completed a minority initial public offering (“IPO”) of 18.4% of EHI’s common stock.

We are engaged in the business of writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance. The insurance protects lenders and investors against certain losses resulting from nonpayment of loans secured by mortgages, deeds of trust, or other instruments constituting a lien on residential real estate. We offer private mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“primary mortgage insurance”). Our primary mortgage insurance enables borrowers to buy homes with a down payment of less than 20% of the home’s value. Primary mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment mortgage loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are sold to government-sponsored enterprises. We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination.

We also perform fee-based contract underwriting services for mortgage lenders. The provision of underwriting services by mortgage insurers eliminates the duplicative lender and mortgage insurer underwriting activities and expedites the approval process.

We operate our business through our primary insurance subsidiary, Enact Mortgage Insurance Corporation, (“EMICO”), with operations in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. EMICO is an approved insurer by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises, and we refer to them collectively as the “GSEs.”

We also offer mortgage and credit-related insurance and reinsurance through our other subsidiaries, including investing in new opportunities for Enact. One of these subsidiaries, Enact Re Ltd. ("Enact Re"), our wholly owned Bermuda-based subsidiary, also reinsures EMICO’s new and existing insurance in-force under quota share reinsurance agreements.

We operate our business in a single segment, which is how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

(2)Accounting changes

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

We have not adopted new accounting pronouncements in 2026.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement Disaggregation

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses included in our consolidated statements of income, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. This guidance is effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, related to accounting for internal-use software costs. The new guidance modified the cost capitalization threshold by removing project development stages and adding evaluation considerations to the probable-to-complete threshold, as well as requiring additional disclosure of internal-use software and related amortization regardless of how the internal-use software is classified on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the table above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the unrealized losses are largely due to changes in interest rates and recent market volatility and are not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.

For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell, nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

The following table presents the gross unrealized losses and fair values of our fixed maturity securities, aggregated by investment type and length of time that individual fixed maturity securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, as of December 31, 2025:

(4)Fair value

Recurring fair value measurements

We hold fixed maturity securities, which are carried at fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including asset-backed securities), an income or combination approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.

Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.

Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs, and therefore be classified as Level 2. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2026.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities and short-term investments based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.

Third-party pricing services

In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, approximately 91% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of March 31, 2026. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

The following table presents a summary of the significant inputs used by our pricing services for certain fair value measurements of fixed maturity securities that are classified as Level 2 as of March 31, 2026:

Internal models

A portion of our Level 2 U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $230.4 million and $82.5 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.

Level 3 measurements

Broker quotes

A portion of our non-U.S. corporate and other asset-backed securities are valued using broker quotes. Broker quotes are obtained from third-party providers that have current market knowledge to provide a reasonable price for securities not routinely priced by pricing services. Brokers utilized for valuation of assets are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by broker quotes was $22.6 million as of March 31, 2026.

Internal models

A portion of our U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The primary inputs to the valuation of the bond population include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which includes significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage ratios, payment priority with the tranche, benchmark yields and credit spreads. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced using internal models was $228.7 million as of March 31, 2026.

Third-party pricing services

A portion of our non-U.S. corporate and other asset-backed securities are valued using pricing services, but utilize unobservable inputs. These pricing services utilize income-based approaches and internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. Pricing services utilized for valuation are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by pricing services was $3.0 million as of March 31, 2026.

(1)The transfers into and out of Level 3 for fixed maturity securities were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in the observability of external information used in determining the fair value, such as external ratings or credit spreads.

Purchases, sales, and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period.

The amount presented for realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in net income for fixed maturity securities primarily represents amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on certain fixed maturity securities recorded within net investment income.

The following table presents a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used for certain asset fair value measurements that are based on internal models and classified as Level 3 as of March 31, 2026:

(1)Certain classes of instruments classified as Level 3 may be excluded as a result of not being material or due to limitations in being able to obtain the underlying inputs used by certain third-party sources, such as broker quotes, used as an input in determining fair value.

(2)Unobservable inputs weighted by the relative fair value of the associated instrument.

We have certain financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value, including cash and cash equivalents and accrued investment income, the carrying value of which approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments and are not included in this disclosure.

(5)Loss reserves

Our reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) consisted of the following as of the dates indicated:

(Amounts in thousands)March 31, 2026December 31, 2025
Domestic mortgage insurance$584,406$566,809
Other reserves5,9875,661
Total loss reserves$590,393$572,470

Activity for the liability for domestic mortgage insurance loss reserves for the three months ended March 31, is summarized as follows:

(Amounts in thousands)20262025
Gross loss reserves, beginning balance$566,809$520,032
Reinsurance recoverable, beginning balance(3,326)(2,909)
Net loss reserves, beginning balance563,483517,123

Net loss reserves, ending balance579,558534,682
Reinsurance recoverable, ending balance4,8482,798
Gross loss reserves, ending balance$584,406$537,480

The liability for loss reserves represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could possibly be significant, and result in future increases to reserves by amounts that could be material to our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Losses incurred related to insured events of the current accident year relate to defaults that occurred in that year and represent the estimated ultimate amount of losses to be paid on such defaults. Losses incurred related to insured events of prior accident years represent the (favorable) or unfavorable development of reserves as a result of the actual rates at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”) and claim amounts being different than those we estimated when originally establishing the reserves. These estimates are based on our historical experience, which we believe is representative of expected future losses at the time of estimation. As a result of the extended period of time that may exist between the reporting of a delinquency and the claim payment, as well as changes in economic conditions and the real estate market, significant uncertainty and variability exist on amounts ultimately paid.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, losses and LAE incurred of $79 million related to insured events of the current accident year was primarily attributable to new delinquencies compared to $78 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we also recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $39 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $47 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

(6)Reinsurance

We reinsure a portion of our policy risks to third parties in order to reduce our ultimate losses, diversify our exposures and comply with regulatory requirements. We also assume certain policy risks written by other companies.

Reinsurance does not relieve us from our obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations, we remain liable for the reinsured claims. We monitor both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions, activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of default by such reinsurers.

The following table sets forth the effects of reinsurance on premiums written and earned for the periods indicated:

Three months endedMarch 31,
(Amounts in thousands)20262025
Net premiums written:
Direct$263,310$263,081
Assumed9,6317,305
Ceded(36,466)(32,761)
Net premiums written$236,475$237,625
Net premiums earned:
Direct$270,195$270,242
Assumed9,1217,305
Ceded(36,466)(32,761)
Net premiums earned$242,850$244,786

The difference between written premiums of $236.5 million and earned premiums of $242.9 million represents the decrease in unearned premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The decrease in unearned premiums in both periods was primarily the result of premiums earned over time coupled with low originations of our single premium mortgage insurance product.

Excess-of-loss reinsurance

We engage in excess-of-loss (“XOL”) insurance transactions either through a panel of traditional reinsurance providers or through collateralized reinsurance with unaffiliated special purpose insurers (“Triangle Re Entities”). During the respective coverage periods of these agreements, EMICO retains the first layer of aggregate loss exposure on covered policies while the reinsurer provides the second layer of coverage, up to the defined reinsurance coverage amount. EMICO retains losses in excess of the respective reinsurance coverage amount.

The Triangle Re Entities fully collateralize their coverage by issuing insurance-linked notes (“ILNs”) to eligible capital market investors in unregistered private offerings. Traditional reinsurance providers collateralize a portion of their coverage by holding funds in trust. We believe that the risk transfer requirements for reinsurance accounting were met as these XOL insurance transactions assume significant insurance risk and a reasonable possibility of significant loss.

EMICO has rights to terminate the ILNs or traditional XOL reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.

The following table presents the issue date, policy dates, initial and current first layer retained aggregate loss and initial and current reinsurance coverage amount under each reinsurance transaction. Current amounts are presented as of March 31, 2026:

Quota Share Reinsurance

EMICO engages in quota share reinsurance agreements with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Under the agreements, we cede a percentage of premiums earned, claims and claims expenses on eligible policies. The agreements also include a specific ceding commission and profit commission determined based on ceded claims. EMICO has rights to terminate the reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events. Reinsurance recoverables are recorded in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

(7)Borrowings

In May 2024, we issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes are the Company’s unsecured senior obligations. The 2029 Notes pay interest semi-annually on May 28 and November 28 at a rate of 6.25% per year, beginning on November 28, 2024, and will mature on May 28, 2029.

At any time, or from time to time, prior to April 28, 2029 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the 2029 Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points less interest accrued to the redemption date, and (ii)100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The 2029 Notes contain customary events of default which, subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding notes if we breach the terms of the indenture.

The following table sets forth long-term borrowings as of the dates indicated:

Revolving Credit Agreement

On September 30, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for afive-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2025 Revolving Credit Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million, to replace our then-outstanding $200 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2022 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility includes the ability for EHI to increase the commitments on an uncommitted basis, by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $217.5 million. Borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility will accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at EHI’s option, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins are based on the ratings established by certain debt rating agencies for EHI’s senior unsecured debt. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility matures in September 2030, but under certain conditions EHI may need to repay any outstanding amounts and terminate the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility earlier than the maturity date.

We may use borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERs compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility has remained undrawn through March 31, 2026.

(8)Income taxes

We compute the provision for income taxes on a separate return with the benefits-for-loss method. If during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had computed taxes using the separate return method, the provision for income taxes would have been unchanged.

(9)Related party transactions

We have various agreements with Genworth that provide for reimbursement to and from Genworth of certain administrative and operating expenses that include, but are not limited to, information technology services and administrative services (such as finance, human resources and employee benefit administration). These agreements provide for an allocation of corporate expenses to all Genworth businesses or subsidiaries. We incurred costs for these services of $2.0 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The investment portfolios of our insurance subsidiaries are primarily managed by Genworth. Under the terms of the investment management agreement, we are charged a fee by Genworth. All fees paid to Genworth are charged to investment expense and are included in net investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The total investment expenses paid to Genworth were $1.9 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Our employees participate in certain benefit plans sponsored by Genworth and certain share-based compensation plans that utilize shares of Genworth common stock and other incentive plans.

We paid cash dividends of $24.1 million and $22.8 million to Genworth in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The amount and timing of future dividends will be based upon the prevailing and prospective macro-economic conditions, regulatory landscape and business performance and remain subject to required approvals. We paid Genworth $75.4 million and $53.0 million related to shares repurchased in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

We have a tax sharing agreement in place with Genworth, such that we participate in a single U.S. consolidated income tax return filing. All intercompany balances related to this agreement are settled at least annually.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the following amounts due to and from Genworth relating to recurring service and expense agreements as of:

(10)Net income per common share

The basic earnings per share computation is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the calculation of dilutive weighted average shares considers the impact of restricted stock units and performance stock units issued to employees, as well as deferred stock units issued to our directors.

The calculation of basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

Share Repurchase Program

On May 1, 2024 and April 30, 2025, we announced repurchase authorizations that allowed for the repurchase of $250 million and $350 million, respectively, excluding commissions, of EHI common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. On February 3, 2026, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to an additional $500 million of EHI’s common stock. Under the programs, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, Enact has entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares as part of the program to maintain Genworth’s current ownership interest in Enact. The programs do not obligate EHI to acquire any amount of common stock, may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and do not have a specified expiration date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased 2,291,215 shares at an average price of $40.66 per share, excluding commissions, compared to 1,962,023 shares at an average price of $33.38 per share, excluding commissions, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, $467.9 million remained available under the share repurchase program. All treasury stock has been retired as of March 31, 2026.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company purchased 700,434 shares at an average price of $42.56 per share through April 30, 2026.

(13)Segment Reporting

We operate our business in a single reportable segment, Mortgage Insurance, which is how our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources. We derive revenue primarily through writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance in the United States. We manage our single segment on a consolidated basis, and our reported measure of segment profit or loss is consolidated net income.

The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets in deciding how to reinvest profits into the core business, or into other parts of the entity, such as new business initiatives or to return capital to shareholders. Net income is also considered in our competitive analysis and financial planning processes.

Our significant segment expenses are those disclosed on our condensed consolidated statements of income and our measure of segment assets are those reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
