60 Appendix: Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliations

61 Operating Income and Operating Return on Average Common Equity Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation (Unaudited) 1 Bermuda net deferred tax benefit due to the recognition of deferred tax assets net of deferred tax liabilities related to a future Bermuda corporate income tax rate of 15 % , pursuant to the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 . 2 Tax expense (benefit) associated with the adjustments to net income (loss) available (attributable) to common shareholders . Tax impact is estimated by applying the statutory rates of applicable jurisdictions 3 Annualized operating return on average common equity ("operating ROACE") is a non - GAAP financial measure as defined in SEC Regulation G . The reconciliation to annualized ROACE, the most comparable GAAP financial measure is presented in the table above, and a discussion of the rationale for its presentation is provided later in this document . For the three months ended March 31, 2024, and years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021

62 Current Accident Year Combined Ratio – Insurance Segment Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation (Unaudited) For the three months ended March 31, 2024, and years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021

63 Current Accident Year Combined Ratio – Reinsurance Segment Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation (Unaudited) For the three months ended March 31, 2024, and years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021

64 Current Accident Loss Ratio Excluding Reinsurance Catastrophe and Property Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation (Unaudited) For the years ended December 31, 2018 - 2023

65 Rationale for use of Non - GAAP Measures We present our results of operations in a way we believe will be meaningful and useful to investors, analysts, rating agencie s a nd others who use our financial information to evaluate our performance. Some of the measurements we use are considered non - GAAP financial measures under SEC rules and regulations. In this document, we present ope rating income (loss), annualized operating return on average common equity ("operating ROACE"), current accident year combined ratio, current accident year loss ratio, catastrophe and weather - related los ses ratio, current accident year loss ratio, excluding catastrophe and weather - related losses and current accident year loss ratio, excluding reinsurance catastrophe and property which are non - GAAP financial measures as de fined in SEC Regulation G. We believe that these non - GAAP financial measures, which may be defined and calculated differently by other companies, help explain and enhance the understanding of our results of op era tions. However, these measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Operating Income (Loss) and Annualized Operating ROACE Operating income (loss) represents after - tax operational results exclusive of net investment gains (losses), foreign exchange lo sses (gains), reorganization expenses, interest in income (loss) of equity method investments and Bermuda net deferred tax asset. Although the investment of premiums to generate income and investment gains (losses) is an integral part of our operations, t he determination to realize investment gains (losses) is independent of the underwriting process and is heavily influenced by the availability of market opportunities. Furthermore, many users believe that the timin g o f the realization of investment gains (losses) is somewhat opportunistic for many companies. Foreign exchange losses (gains) in our consolidated statements of operations primarily relate to the impact of foreign exchan ge rate movements on net insurance - related liabilities. However, we manage our investment portfolio in such a way that unrealized and realized foreign exchange losses (gains) on our investment portfolio, including u nre alized foreign exchange losses (gains) on our equity securities and foreign exchange losses (gains) realized on the sale of our available for sale investments and equity securities recognized in net investment gains ( los ses) and unrealized foreign exchange losses (gains) on our available for sale investments in other comprehensive income (loss), generally offset a large portion of the foreign exchange losses (gains) arising from our u nde rwriting portfolio, thereby minimizing the impact of foreign exchange rate movements on total shareholders' equity. As a result, we believe that foreign exchange losses (gains) in our consolidated statements of op era tions in isolation are not a meaningful contributor to the performance of our business. Therefore, foreign exchange losses (gains) are excluded from operating income (loss). Reorganization expenses in 2024 primarily relate to severance costs mainly attributable to our "How We Work" program which is fo cused on simplifying our operating structure. Reorganization expenses in 2023 primarily relate to impairments of computer software assets and severance costs mainly attributable to our "How We Work" program. Reorg ani zation expenses in 2022 primarily relate to severance costs and impairments of computer software assets mainly attributable to our exit from catastrophe and property reinsurance lines of business which wa s p art of an overall approach to reduce our exposure to volatile catastrophe risk. Reorganization expenses are primarily driven by business decisions, the nature and timing of which are not related to the und erw riting process. Therefore, these expenses are excluded from operating income (loss). Interest in income (loss) of equity method investments is primarily driven by business decisions, the nature and timing of wh ich are not related to the underwriting process. Therefore, this income (loss) is excluded from operating income (loss). Bermuda net deferred tax asset is due to the recognition of deferred tax assets net of deferred tax liabilities related to a fut ure Bermuda corporate income tax rate of 15%, pursuant to the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. The Bermuda net deferred tax asset is not related to the un der writing process. Therefore, this income is excluded from operating income (loss). Certain users of our financial statements evaluate performance exclusive of after - tax net investment gains (losses), foreign exc hange losses (gains), reorganization expenses, interest in income (loss) of equity method investments and Bermuda net deferred tax asset in order to understand the profitability of recurring sources of income. We believe that showing net income (loss) available (attributable) to common shareholders exclusive of after - tax net investment gains (losses), foreign exchange losses (gains), reorganization expenses, interest in income (loss) of equity method investments and Bermuda net deferred tax asset reflects the underlying fundamentals of our business. In addition, we believe that this presentation enables investors and other users of our financial information to analyze performance in a manner similar to how our management analyzes the underlying business perfo rma nce. We also believe this measure follows industry practice and, therefore, facilitates comparison of our performance with our peer group. We believe that equity analysts and certain rating agencies that follow us , a nd the insurance industry as a whole, generally exclude these items from their analyses for the same reasons. The reconciliation of operating income (loss) to net income (loss) available (attributable) to common share hol ders, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation ' section of this document.

66 Rationale for use of Non - GAAP Measures We also present annualized operating ROACE, which is derived from the operating income (loss) measure and is reconciled to th e m ost comparable GAAP financial measure, annualized return on average common equity ("ROACE"), in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation' section of this document. Current Accident Year Combined Ratio Current accident year combined ratio represents underwriting results exclusive of net favorable (adverse) prior year reserve dev elopment. We believe that the presentation of current accident year combined ratio provides investors with an enhanced understanding of our results of operations by highlighting the profitability of our underwriting a cti vities excluding the impact of volatile prior year reserve development. The reconciliation of current accident year combined ratio to combined ratio, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation' section of this document. Current Accident Year Loss Ratio Current accident year loss ratio represents net losses and loss expenses ratio exclusive of net favorable (adverse) prior yea r r eserve development. We believe that the presentation of current accident year loss ratio provides investors with an enhanced understanding of our results of operations by highlighting net losses and loss expenses a sso ciated with our underwriting activities excluding the impact of volatile prior year reserve development. The reconciliation of current accident year loss ratio to net losses and loss expenses ratio, the most comparabl e G AAP financial measure, is presented in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation' section of this document. Catastrophe and Weather - Related Losses Ratio (referred to as "CAT CAY loss ratio" on page 26 of this presentation) and Current A ccident Year Loss Ratio, excluding Catastrophe and Weather - Related Losses (referred to as "Ex - CAT CAY loss ratio" on page 26 of this presentation) Catastrophe and weather - related losses ratio represents net losses and loss expenses ratio associated with natural disasters, ma n - made catastrophes, other catastrophe events and other weather - related events exclusive of net favorable (adverse) prior year reserve development. Current accident year loss ratio, excluding catastrophe and weather - related losses represents net losses and loss expenses ratio exclusive of net favorable (adverse) prior year reserve development and net losses and loss expenses associated with natural disasters, man - made catastrophes, other catastrophe events and other weather - related events. We believe that the presentation of these ratios that separately identify net losses and loss expenses associated with catast rop he and weather - related events provide investors with an enhanced understanding of our results of operations due to the inherently unpredictable nature of the occurrence of these events, the potential magnitude o f t hese losses and the complexity that affects our ability to accurately estimate ultimate losses associated with these events. The reconciliation of catastrophe and weather - related losses ratio and current accident year loss ratio, excluding catastrophe and weather - related losses to net losses and loss expenses ratio, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation' section of this document. Current Accident Year Loss Ratio, excluding reinsurance catastrophe and property (referred to as "Normalized CAY Loss Ratio" on page 26 of this presentation) Current accident year loss ratio, excluding reinsurance catastrophe and property represents net losses and loss expenses rati o e xclusive of net favorable (adverse) prior year reserve development and the impact of our exit from catastrophe and property reinsurance lines of business in June 2022. We believe that the presentation of current accident year loss ratio, excluding reinsurance catastrophe and property provides in vestors with an enhanced understanding of our results of operations by highlighting losses and loss expenses associated with our underwriting activities excluding the impact of volatile prior year reserve development an d our exit from catastrophe and property reinsurance lines of business. The reconciliation of current accident year loss ratio, excluding reinsurance catastrophe and property to net losses and loss ex penses ratio, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the 'Non - GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation ' section of this document.
