NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.    Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Argo Group International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Argo Group,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Argo Group is an underwriter of specialty insurance products in the property and casualty market.

On November 16, 2023, we merged with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. (formerly known as Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd.), which resulted in a change to the Company’s ownership (the “Merger”). Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. elected to push-down its purchase accounting, which resulted in the Company reflecting the fair market value of our assets and liabilities as of November 16, 2023, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all of our assets and liabilities. As such, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows subsequent to the acquisition are not comparable with those prior to November 16, 2023, and therefore have been separated to indicate pre-acquisition and post-acquisition periods. The pre-acquisition period through November 15, 2023 is referred to as the Predecessor. The post-acquisition period, November 16, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the Successor.

The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The major estimates reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, but are not limited to, reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses; reinsurance recoverables, including the reinsurance recoverables allowance for expected credit losses; fair value of investments and assessment of potential impairment, including the allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities; valuation of intangibles, including those identified as part of purchase accounting related to the Merger, and our deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including certain financial statement footnotes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The interim financial information as of, and for the three and nine months ended, September 30, 2024 and 2023 is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results presented for the interim periods. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All material intercompany amounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to financial information presented for prior years to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc.

On September 25, 2024, the Company and AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc.”). The purpose of the Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., was to reduce the Company’s annual franchise taxes in the State of Delaware by reducing the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock. In connection with the consummation of the Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock decreased from 2,000,000,000 to 1,000, each share of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company was converted into and became one hundred millionth (1/100,000,000) of a validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, and the number of authorized shares of the Company’s preferred stock decreased from 30,000,000 to 10,000.

The merger constituted a common-control transaction as defined under current accounting standards as there was no change in control over the net assets of the Company. Therefore, these resulting financial statements reflect the financial position and results of operations as if the merger had occurred on January 1, 2024.

Purchase Accounting Measurement Period Adjustment

The Merger resulted in a $48.9 million bargain purchase, which is uncommon, since the value of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase consideration. The values of certain assets and liabilities are considered preliminary in nature and are subject to adjustment during the measurement period as additional information is obtained. As the valuations are finalized, any changes to the preliminary valuation of assets acquired or liabilities assumed may result in retrospective adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reduced its bargain purchase amount by $15.3 million to $33.6 million, resulting in a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. The adjustment related to the Company’s valuation of loss reserves for its U.S. Operations.

Commutation of Riverstone Holdings Limited Reinsurance Agreement

On June 2, 2024, the Company entered into a commutation with Riverstone Holdings Limited (part of the RiverStone International group) on its legacy assumed business from our former Malta operations, ArgoGlobal Holdings (Malta) Ltd., which was sold in 2022. This transaction had no material impact on our net income. The final consideration of $86.7 million was paid to Riverstone Holdings Limited on July 1, 2024.

Sale of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited

On September 8, 2022, Argo International Holdings Limited (the “Seller”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Ohio Farmers Insurance Company (the “Buyer”), part of the Westfield group of insurance companies, entered into a sale and purchase agreement (the “Transaction”) under which the Seller agreed to sell, and the Buyer agreed to purchase, the entire issued share capital of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited (“AUA”), for which the financial results are reported in our International segment.

On February 2, 2023, the Seller completed the sale of the entire issued share capital of AUA.

The Company received total consideration of $161.3 million, which included cash proceeds of $130.7 million as base consideration and an additional $30.6 million which was placed in escrow by the Buyer related to certain reinsurance-related recoverables. The funds in escrow may be released to the Seller over a period of two years following the closing. At the end of the two-year escrow period, any remaining balance of the escrow will be returned to the Buyer. Since the sale of AUA, $13.1 million of the consideration placed in escrow was released to the Company.

As a result of the sale, we realized a loss of $20.3 million in the first quarter of 2023, which is included as a component of Net realized investment and other gains (losses) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). This loss is due to the realization of unrealized investment losses, which were previously a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Company evaluated recently issued accounting pronouncements and determined none are material to our results of operations or financial position reported herein.

The Company holds a total of 1,152 fixed maturity securities, of which 51 were in an unrealized loss position for less than one year and none were in an unrealized loss position for a period of one year or greater as of September 30, 2024. The unrealized losses as of September 30, 2024 are primarily driven by interest rate movements.

Allowance for Credit Losses

For fixed maturities with a decline in fair value below the amortized cost due to credit-related factors, an allowance is established for the difference between the estimated recoverable value and amortized cost with a corresponding charge to Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The allowance is limited to the difference between amortized cost and fair value. The estimated recoverable value is the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, as determined by management. The difference between fair value and amortized cost that is not associated with credit-related factors is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accrued interest is excluded from the measurement of the allowance for credit losses.

When determining if a credit loss has been incurred, we may consider the historical performance of the security, available market information and security specific considerations such as the priority payment of the security. In addition, inputs used in our analysis include, but are not limited to, credit ratings and downgrades, delinquency rates, missed scheduled interest or principal payments, purchase yields, underlying asset performance, collateral types, modeled default rates, modeled severity rates, call/prepayment rates, expected cash flows, industry concentrations, and potential or filed bankruptcies or restructurings.

In cooperation with our investment managers, we evaluate for credit losses each quarter utilizing a bottom up review approach. At the security level, a determination is made as to whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is due to credit-related or noncredit-related factors. If we determine that all or a portion of a fixed maturity is uncollectible, the uncollectible amortized cost is written off with a corresponding reduction to the allowance for credit losses. If we collect cash flows that were previously written off, the recovery is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses). We also consider whether we intend to sell an available-for-sale security or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. In these instances, a decline in fair value is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) based on the fair value of the security at the time of assessment, resulting in a new cost basis for the security.

The following table presents a roll-forward of the changes in allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale fixed maturities by industry category for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:

For mortgage loans an allowance for credit losses is established at the time of origination or purchase, as necessary, and is updated each reporting period. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in Net investment and other gains (losses). This allowance reflects the risk of loss, even when that risk is remote, that is expected over the remaining contractual life of the loan. The allowance for credit losses considers available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market that are independent, knowledgeable, able to transact for the asset or liability and willing to transfer the asset or liability.

Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. The inputs of these valuation techniques are categorized into three levels.

•Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the reporting date. We define actively traded as a security that has traded in the past seven days.

•Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. We receive one quote per instrument for Level 2 inputs.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect our own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Significant increases (decreases) in those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

To validate the fair value of investments in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we receive prices from multiple sources including third-party pricing services and our outside investment managers. Through a comparative analysis, the Company validates the reasonableness of its valuations. These prices are determined using observable market information such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things. We have reviewed the processes used by the third-party providers for pricing the securities and have determined that these processes result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure assets at fair value is as follows:

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Levels 1 and 2:

•United States Treasury securities are typically valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

•United States Government agencies, non-U.S. Government securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, credit securities and foreign denominated government and credit securities are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

•Asset and mortgage-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Level 3: We own term loans and asset-back securities that are valued using unobservable inputs.

Equity Securities Level 1: For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

Equity Securities Level 3: We own certain equity securities that are reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The valuation techniques for these securities include the following:

•Fair value measurements for an investment in an equity fund obtained by applying final prices provided by the administrator of the fund, which is based upon certain estimates and assumptions.

•Fair value measurements from brokers and independent valuation services, both based upon estimates, assumptions and other unobservable inputs.

20

Short-term Investments: Short-term investments are principally reported at fair value using Level 1 inputs, with the exception of short-term corporate and governmental bonds reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs as described in the fixed maturities section above. Values for the investments categorized as Level 1 are obtained from various financial institutions as of the reporting date.

Other investments: Other investments include private securities for which we have elected the fair value option of accounting, and are valued using unobservable Level 3 inputs.

Derivative assets: As a result of the Company’s commutation of the assumed reinsurance agreement with Riverstone Holdings Limited, the Company classified the ceded reserves on the Malta business as a derivative in accordance with ASC 815. As the ceded reserves are shorter term in nature, management has concluded that the fair value is equivalent to its carrying value, resulting in no impact to earnings.

Derivative liabilities: We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our investment exposure to foreign currencies. These derivatives are carried at fair value using Level 2 inputs, primarily observable foreign exchange rates at the end of the period.

Based on an analysis of the inputs, our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis have been categorized as follows:

The fair value measurements in the tables above do not equal Total investments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as they primarily exclude Mortgage loans, Private loans, certain Other investments and Short-term investments. Our mortgage loans and private loans, some of which are classified as short-term investments based on the time to maturity at acquisition, are carried at amortized cost. Certain other investments are accounted for in accordance with the equity-method of accounting, carried at amortized cost or use NAV as a practical expedient.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the investments categorized as Level 3 are as follows:

At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have any financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The Company holds certain investments at cost, less an allowance for expected credit losses, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Company’s investments is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis. Due to the level of unobservable inputs factored into the estimation of fair value, the valuation would be categorized as Level 3. The cost and estimated fair value of these investments were:

	As of
	September 30, 2024				December 31, 2023

Gross reserves - end of period	$	5,792.9	$	5,328.7

(1)For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the adjustment relates to the year-to-date activity of Syndicate 1200 and on reinsurance contracts with AUA subsidiaries. Refer to the sale of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited in Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information.

(2) In connection with the sale of AUA, the Company entered into two retroactive reinsurance agreements with AUA subsidiaries.

(3) Impact of measurement period adjustment in connection with the Merger. Refer to Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information.

Reserves for losses and LAE represent the estimated indemnity cost and related adjustment expenses necessary to investigate and settle claims. Such estimates are based upon individual case estimates for reported claims, estimates from ceding companies for reinsurance assumed and actuarial estimates for losses that have been incurred but not yet reported to the insurer. Any change in probable ultimate liabilities is reflected in current operating results.

The impact from the unfavorable (favorable) development of prior accident years’ loss and LAE reserves on each reporting segment is presented below: 

	Successor		Predecessor
(in millions)	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
U.S. Operations	$	125.1	$	111.7
International Operations	77.3		11.7
Run-off Lines	7.3		2.6
Total unfavorable (favorable) prior-year development	$	209.7	$	126.0

25

The following describes the primary factors behind each segment’s net prior accident year loss reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

Nine months ended September 30, 2024:

•U.S. Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to the recognition of higher-than-expected loss experience across a number of specialty, casualty, and professional lines and by updates to the expectations for future loss experience and development, along with movements on large individual surety claims in specialty lines.

•International Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to the recognition of higher-than-expected loss experience in Bermuda professional and casualty lines and by updates to the expectations for future loss experience and development.

•Run-off Lines: Net unfavorable loss reserve development on prior accident years in other run-off lines.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023:

•U.S. Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to liability and professional lines partially offset by favorable development in specialty lines. The liability lines development was driven by actual losses greater than expected including the impact of large claims with a significant portion of the unfavorable development coming from businesses we have exited. The professional lines development was driven by movements on individual management liability claims. The favorable development in specialty lines was due to a lack of claim activity in surety business.

•International Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to movements on claims in professional and liability lines in our Bermuda operations partially offset by favorable development in runoff Reinsurance lines.

•Run-off Lines: Net unfavorable loss reserve development on prior accident years in other run-off lines.

Our reserves represent the best estimate of our ultimate liabilities, based on currently known facts, current law, current technology and reasonable assumptions where facts are not known. Due to the significant uncertainties and related management judgments, there can be no assurance that future favorable or unfavorable loss development, which may be material, will not occur.

6.    Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment securities, mortgage loan and private loan investments, and short-term investments. See Note 3, “Investments,” for additional information.

Premiums receivable and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses. The carrying value of current receivables and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses approximates fair value due to short-term nature.

Debt. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of our debt instruments is determined using both Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, as previously defined in Note 3, “Investments.”

We receive fair value prices for similar financial instruments being traded in active markets. These prices are determined using observable market information such as publicly traded quoted prices, and trading prices for similar financial instruments actively being traded in the current market. We have reviewed the processes used by third-party providers for pricing these instruments and have determined that they result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure these liabilities at fair value is as follows:

Senior Unsecured Fixed Rate Notes Level 1:

•Our senior unsecured fixed rate notes are valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

26

Junior Subordinated Debentures Level 2:

•Our trust preferred debentures and subordinated debentures are typically valued using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements using quoted prices for similar securities being traded in active markets at the reporting date, as our specific debt instruments are less frequently traded.

A summary of our financial instruments whose carrying value did not equal fair value is shown below:

	September 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
(in millions)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Junior subordinated debentures:

11.    Income Taxes

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Bermuda until November 30, 2023. Under Bermuda law, the Company was not obligated to pay any tax in Bermuda based upon income or capital gains. We previously received an undertaking from the Supervisor of Insurance in Bermuda pursuant to the provisions of the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act, 2011 which exempted us from any Bermuda taxes computed on profits, income or any capital asset, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate, duty or inheritance tax, at least until the year 2035. As of November 30, 2023, the Company redomiciled from Bermuda to the United States. In connection with redomiciling from Bermuda to the United States, the Company’s predecessor pre-tax loss and tax benefit is reported in Bermuda. Subsequent to redomiciling, the Company’s successor pre-tax income and tax provision is reported in the U.S. Separately, Argo Re has submitted an Internal Revenue Code Section 953(d) election to treat the entity as a U.S. taxpayer. The election is deemed retroactive to the period beginning January 1, 2023. Argo Re pre-tax loss for the predecessor period is reported in Bermuda. The retroactive U.S. tax benefit incurred for the predecessor period is reflected in purchase accounting. Argo Re pre-tax income and tax provision is reported in the United States for the successor period.

On February 2, 2023, Argo International Holdings Limited, a wholly-owned U.K. subsidiary of the Company, sold AUA. See Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information related to this transaction. The predecessor period includes activity of AUA until it was sold. Subsequent to the AUA sale, the Company retained one U.K. subsidiary that is subject to the tax laws of that country. Under current law, the subsidiary is taxed at the applicable corporate tax rates and files a separate U.K. income tax return.

We have subsidiaries based in the U.S. that are subject to U.S. tax laws. Under current law, these subsidiaries are taxed at the applicable corporate tax rates. Beginning January 1, 2024, our U.S. subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return with BAMR US Holdings LLC, a subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd.

We also have operations in Ireland and Italy which are subject to income taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which they operate. Furthermore, we have an operation in Barbados which is not subject to income tax under the laws of that country.

On August 16, 2022, U.S. legislation referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was enacted. This legislation enacted a new Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”) and Excise Tax on Repurchases of Corporate Stock. The Company has determined as of the period ended September 30, 2024, that it is subject to CAMT. The recognition of applicable CAMT is reported on a consolidated basis with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. The Company is not subject to Excise Tax on Repurchases of Corporate Stock.

Our expected income tax provision computed on pre-tax income (loss) at the weighted average tax rate has been calculated as the sum of the pre-tax income (loss) in each jurisdiction multiplied by that jurisdiction’s applicable statutory tax rate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, pre-tax income (loss) attributable to our operations and the corresponding operations’ effective tax rates were as follows: 

	Successor				Predecessor
	Three Months Ended September 30, 2024				Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
(in millions)	Pre-Tax Income (Loss)		Effective Tax Rate		Pre-Tax Income (Loss)			Effective Tax Rate

(1) Pre-tax income (loss) for the respective year was less than $0.1 million.

A reconciliation of the difference between the provision (benefit) for income taxes and the expected tax provision (benefit) at the weighted average tax rate is as follows:

	Successor		Predecessor		Successor		Predecessor
(in millions)	Three Months Ended September 30, 2024		Three Months Ended September 30, 2023		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Income tax provision (benefit)	$	(34.4)	$	17.6	$	(27.2)	$	3.3

Our gross deferred tax assets are supported by taxes paid in previous periods, reversal of taxable temporary differences and recognition of future taxable income. Management regularly evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and makes any necessary adjustments to them based upon any changes in management’s expectations of future taxable income. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generation of future taxable income sufficient to recover tax benefits that cannot be recovered from taxes paid in the carryback period, generally for our U.S. property and casualty insurers two years for net operating losses and for all our U.S. subsidiaries three years for capital losses. If a company determines that any of its deferred tax assets will not result in future tax benefits, a valuation allowance must be established for the portion of these assets that are not expected to be realized. For three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the net change in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was an increase of $0.3 million and decrease of $2.2 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the change in valuation allowance related to the limited net operating loss carryforwards incurred in the United Kingdom. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the change in valuation allowance primarily related to the following: $3.3 million decrease related to an Ireland Capital Loss due to dissolution and a $1.1 million increase related to limited net operating loss carryforwards incurred in the United Kingdom. Based upon a review of our available evidence, both positive and negative discussed above, the Company concluded that it is more-likely-than-not that $65.9 million of our deferred tax assets will be realized.

31

For any uncertain tax positions not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold, accounting standards require recognition, measurement and disclosure in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. No change to the uncertain tax positions were recorded for federal or state income tax liability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. A net decrease of interest in the amount of $1.1 million has been recorded in the line item Interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. A net decrease of penalty in the amount of $0.2 million has been recorded in the line item Underwriting, acquisition, and general expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company did not incur interest and penalty for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Our U.S. subsidiaries are no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020. Our U.K. subsidiary is no longer subject to U.K. income tax examinations by His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs for years before 2022.

12.    Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Actions

Argo Group’s subsidiaries are parties to legal actions incidental to their business. As of September 30, 2024, management believes that the resolution of these matters would not materially affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Federal Securities Class Action

The Police & Fire Retirement System City of Detroit v. Argo Group International Holdings, Inc., et al., No. 22-cv-8971 (S.D.N.Y.)

On October 20, 2022, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers, alleging securities fraud violations under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Plaintiff alleges that from February 13, 2018 through August 9, 2022, the defendants made false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s reserves and underwriting standards. On January 18, 2023, U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan granted the Police and Fire Retirement System City of Detroit and the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System’s joint motion for appointment as lead plaintiff. On March 27, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint. On May 26, 2023, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended class action complaint. On July 13, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an opposition to such motion, after which defendants filed a reply on August 14, 2023.

Bermuda Appraisal Petitions

In April 2023, appraisal petitions were filed in the Supreme Court of Bermuda (the “Court”) relating to the acquisition of the Company by Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. for $30.00 per share (the “Transaction Price”) that closed on November 16, 2023.

The petitions were filed by certain stockholders pursuant to Section 106(6) of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 and are captioned Corbin Erisa Opportunity Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Corbin Opportunity Fund, L.P. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Event Opportunities, LP v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Global Opportunities Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Special Opportunities Fund, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., and FW Deep Value Opportunities Fund I, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd.

Section 106(6) permits a stockholder of a Bermuda corporation, such as the Company, to petition the Court for a determination of the fair value of the Company’s shares if they are not satisfied with the Transaction Price.

On January 3, 2024, the Company filed a summons to stay the appraisal action pending judgment of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the matter captioned “In re matter of Jardine Strategy Holdings Limited Case No: Civ/2022/14-31.” Hearings were held on July 9, 2024 and July 18, 2024. The Court is considering the stay application and will issue a decision in due course. The Company intends to continue to defend this matter vigorously.

Contractual Commitments

We have contractual commitments to invest up to $82.2 million related to our limited partnership investments at September 30, 2024, as further disclosed in Note 3, “Investments.” These commitments will be funded as required by the partnership agreements which can be called to be fulfilled at any time. Additionally, the Company has commitments to fund up to $75.9 million related to various other investments, including term and mortgage loans.

13.    Segment Information

We are primarily engaged in underwriting property and casualty insurance. We have two ongoing reporting segments: U.S. Operations and International Operations. Additionally, we have Run-off Lines for certain products that we no longer underwrite.

We consider many factors, including the nature of each segment’s insurance and reinsurance products, production sources, distribution strategies and the regulatory environment, in determining how to aggregate reporting segments.

In evaluating the operating performance of our segments, we focus on core underwriting and investing results before the consideration of realized gains or losses from investments. Net investment and other gains (losses) are reported as a component of the Corporate and Other segment, as decisions regarding the acquisition and disposal of securities reside with the corporate investment function and are not under the control of the individual business segments. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets used in the operation of each segment.

Revenue and income (loss) before income taxes for each segment were as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and a discussion of our financial condition as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and Argo Group’s 2023 Form 10-K, including the audited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto.

On November 16, 2023, we merged with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. (formerly known as Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd.) (the “Merger”), which resulted in a change to the Company’s ownership. Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. elected to push-down its purchase accounting, which resulted in the Company reflecting the fair market value of our assets and liabilities as of November 16, 2023, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all of our assets and liabilities. As such, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows subsequent to the Merger are not comparable with those prior to November 16, 2023, and therefore have been separated to indicate pre-Merger and post-Merger periods. The pre-Merger period through November 15, 2023 is referred to as the Predecessor. The post-Merger period, November 16, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the Successor.

Certain reclassifications have been made to financial information presented for prior years to conform to the current year’s presentation.

(1) The Successor periods include amortization of value of business acquired and other intangible assets related to purchase accounting.

The table above includes ratios in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) that we use to measure our profitability. We believe that they enhance an investor’s understanding of our profitability. They are calculated as follows:

a.Loss ratio: the ratio of claims and claims expense to net earned premiums. Loss ratios include the impact of catastrophe losses.

b.Expense ratio: the ratio of underwriting, acquisition and general expenses to net earned premiums.

c.Combined ratio: the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. The difference between 100% and the combined ratio represents underwriting income (loss) as a percentage of net earned premiums, or underwriting margin (loss).

Gross written premiums for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $429.8 million and $1,355.7 million, respectively, primarily driven by our liability and property lines. Net earned premiums for the same periods were $234.3 million and $837.9 million, respectively, driven by our liability and professional lines. Specialty net earned premiums for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were negative due to a portfolio transfer in our surety lines.

Gross written premiums for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $528.3 million and $1,686.9 million, respectively, are primarily driven by our liability, property and professional lines. Gross written premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include results from our former AUA business, which was sold in February 2023. Net earned premiums for the same periods were $342.7 million and $1,062.5 million, respectively.

Our gross written and net earned premiums are further discussed by reporting segment and major lines of business below under the heading “Segment Results.”

Net Investment Income

Net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $62.3 million and $187.1 million, respectively, primarily driven by income from fixed maturity and short-term investment securities. In connection with the Merger, the Company valued its investments in fixed maturities at market value and established new book yields prospectively as of the Merger date. Included in net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 is accretion of discount income of approximately $9.8 million and $55.5 million, respectively, relating to the purchase accounting push-down as a result of the Merger. The alternative investment portfolio, which includes earnings from both private equity and hedge fund investments, provided an additional contribution to the result.

Net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $40.4 million and $102.9 million, respectively, primarily driven by income from fixed maturity and short-term investment securities.

37

Net Investment and Other Gains (Losses)

Net investment and other losses for the three months ended months ended September 30, 2024 were $0.2 million, primarily attributable to net realized losses recognized in connection with the disposal of various below investment grade positions. Net investment and other gains for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $30.8 million, primarily attributable to unrealized gains on equity securities.

Net investment and other losses of $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven by unrealized gains from our equity securities. Net investment and other losses of $21.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily driven from the sale of AUA. The losses related to the sale of AUA included $20.3 million of pre-tax realized losses which were previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, resulting in no impact to total shareholders’ equity from this reclassification. The loss was partially offset by market value gains recognized on our equity investments.

In determining appropriate reserve levels for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we maintained the same general processes and disciplines that were used to set reserves at prior reporting dates. No significant changes in methodologies were made to estimate the reserves since the last reporting date; however, at each reporting date we reassess the actuarial estimate of the reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses and record our best estimate. Consistent with prior reserve valuations, as claims data becomes more mature for prior accident years, actuarial estimates were refined to weigh certain actuarial methods more heavily in order to respond to any emerging trends in the paid and reported loss data. Pricing, reinsurance costs, legal environment, general economic conditions including changes in inflation and many other factors impact our ultimate loss estimates. Refer to segment results for specific factors impacting our current accident year loss ratios.

Gross reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses were $5,792.9 million and $5,544.5 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Our underwriting, acquisition and general expenses are further discussed below by reporting segment under the heading “Segment Results.”

Non-Operating Expenses (Income)

Non-operating income or expenses represent transactions not associated with our ongoing insurance or other operations, including severance expenses, certain legal costs, merger and acquisition and other transaction-related items, and certain non-recurring transactions. As such, non-operating income and expenses have been excluded from the calculation of our expense ratio. These non-recurring transactions are included in the line item Non-operating expenses (income) in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

Non-operating income was $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and non-operating expense was $12.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to non-operating expense of $5.1 million and $23.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 is driven primarily by a gain from the sale of our administrative surety system and an insurance settlement offset by severance expenses. The expenses incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily related to severance expenses, retention bonuses, and legal fees. The expenses incurred for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily relate to legal fees for the sale of AUA and the previously pending Merger.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $9.4 million and $29.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $8.7 million and $25.4 million for the same periods ended September 30, 2023.

Foreign Currency Exchange (Gains) Losses

Foreign currency exchange gain was $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $3.3 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Foreign currency exchange gain was $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to a $0.1 million loss for nine months ended September 30, 2023. The realized foreign currency exchange movements were due to fluctuations of the U.S. Dollar, on a weighted average basis, against the Euro and the British Pound.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)

The income tax provision represents the income tax expense or benefit associated with our operations based on the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Therefore, the provision for income taxes represents taxes on net income for our United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Italy operations. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $34.4 million and $27.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. This is compared to the income tax provision of $17.6 million and $3.3 million for the same period ended 2023.

The effective tax rate was 20.6% and 22.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the effective tax rate of (60.1)% and (4.4)% for the same periods ended 2023. For the period ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred an estimated Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax liability (“BEAT”) in connection with a reinsurance agreement between our U.S. and Bermuda operations which increased the current period effective tax rate. For the three and nine months ending September 30, 2024, the effective tax rates are aligned with statutory tax rates.

Segment Results

We are primarily engaged in writing property and casualty insurance. We have two ongoing reporting segments: U.S. Operations and International Operations. Additionally, we have Run-off Lines for products that we no longer underwrite.

We consider many factors, including the nature of each segment’s insurance products, production sources, distribution strategies and regulatory environment, in determining how to aggregate reporting segments.

Our reportable segments include four primary insurance services and offerings as follows:

•Property includes both property insurance and reinsurance products. Insurance products cover commercial properties primarily in North America with some international covers. Reinsurance covers underlying exposures located throughout the world, including the United States. These offerings include coverages for man-made and natural disasters.

•Liability includes a broad range of primary and excess casualty products primarily underwritten as insurance and, to a lesser extent reinsurance, for risks on both an admitted and non-admitted basis in the United States. Internationally, prior to the sale of AUA, Argo Group underwrote non-U.S. casualty risks primarily exposed in the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.

•Professional includes various professional lines products including errors and omissions and management liability coverages (including directors and officers).

•Specialty includes niche insurance coverages such as marine, accident and health, and surety product offerings.

In evaluating the operating performance of our segments, we focus on core underwriting and investing results before consideration of realized gains or losses from the sales of investments. Net investment and other gains (losses) are reported as a component of the Corporate and Other segment, as decisions regarding the acquisition and disposal of securities reside with the corporate investment function and are not under the control of the individual business segments.

Since we generally manage and monitor the investment portfolio on an aggregate basis, the overall performance of the investment portfolio, and related net investment income, is discussed above on a combined basis under net investment income rather than within or by segment.

The table above includes underwriting income (loss) which is an internal performance measure that we use to measure our insurance profitability. We believe underwriting income (loss) enhances an investor’s understanding of insurance operations profitability. Underwriting income (loss) is calculated as earned premiums less losses and loss adjustment expenses less underwriting, acquisition and general expenses. Although underwriting income (loss) does not replace net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of profitability, management uses underwriting income (loss) to focus our reporting segments on generating operating income.

Net prior-year reserve development was $67.2 million unfavorable for the three months ended Sep 30, 2024, as compared to $3.5 million unfavorable for the same period in 2023. The net unfavorable prior year reserve development for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by the recognition of higher-than-expected loss experience in Bermuda professional and casualty lines and by updates to the expectations for future loss experience and development. Net prior-year reserve development was $77.3 million unfavorable for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $11.7 million for the same period in 2023. The net unfavorable prior year reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily related to the same drivers identified above for the quarter.

Catastrophe losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $4.8 million and $13.0 million, respectively. Catastrophe losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $10.7 million and $11.2 million, respectively. Catastrophe losses for both 2024 and 2023 periods were mainly due to U.S. storms.

Underwriting, Acquisition and General Expenses

Underwriting, acquisition and general expenses were $10.9 million and $32.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $2.7 million and $25.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Underwriting, acquisition and general expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 include $4.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively, of amortization expense for our intangible assets as a result of push-down accounting.

The expense ratio was 45.6% and 42.5% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and 9.5% and 22.5% for the same periods in 2023, respectively.

Run-off Lines

Run-off Lines include liabilities associated with other liability policies that were issued in the 1960s, 1970s and into the 1980s, as well as the former risk-management business and other business no longer underwritten. Through our subsidiary Argonaut Insurance Company (“Argonaut”), we are exposed to asbestos liability at the primary level through claims filed against our direct insureds, as well as through its position as a reinsurer of other primary carriers. Argonaut has direct liability arising primarily from policies issued from the 1960s to the early 1980s, which pre-dated policy contract wording that excluded asbestos exposure. The majority of the direct policies were issued on behalf of small contractors or construction companies. We believe that the frequency and severity of asbestos claims for such insureds is typically less than that experienced for large, industrial manufacturing and distribution concerns.

Argonaut also assumed risk as a reinsurer, primarily for the period from 1970 to 1975, a portion of which was assumed from the London market. Argonaut also reinsured risks on policies written by domestic carriers. Such reinsurance typically provides coverage for limits attaching at a relatively high level, which are payable only after other layers of reinsurance are exhausted. Some of the claims now being filed on policies reinsured by Argonaut are on behalf of claimants who may have been exposed at some time to asbestos incorporated into buildings they occupied but have no apparent medical problems resulting from such exposure. Additionally, lawsuits are being brought against businesses that were not directly involved in the manufacture or installation of materials containing asbestos. We believe that a significant portion of claims generated out of this population of claimants may result in incurred losses generally lower than the asbestos claims filed over the past decade and could be below the attachment level of Argonaut.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The following table represents a roll forward of total gross and net reserves for the asbestos and environmental exposures in our Run-off Lines, along with the ending balances of all other reserves within Run-off Lines. Amounts in the net column are reduced by reinsurance recoverables.

	Successor				Predecessor
	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
(in millions)	Gross		Net		Gross		Net
Asbestos and environmental:
Loss reserves, beginning of the year	$	59.4	$	50.8	$	65.5	$	55.8
Incurred losses	3.0		3.0		1.0		1.0
Losses paid	(7.4)		(6.3)		(7.6)		(6.2)
Loss reserves - asbestos and environmental, end of period	55.0		47.5		58.9		50.6
Risk-management reserves	117.3		79.4		139.1		87.3
Run-off reinsurance reserves	0.5		0.5		0.4		0.4
Other run-off lines	16.2		11.5		19.7		14.0
Total loss reserves - Run-off Lines	$	189.0	$	138.9	$	218.1	$	152.3

Losses and loss adjustment expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were the result of unfavorable loss reserve development in other run-off lines.

Underwriting, Acquisition and General Expenses

Underwriting, acquisition and general expenses for the Run-off Lines for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are mostly consistent with the same periods in 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The Company’s future cash flows largely depend on the availability of dividends or other statutorily permissible payments from subsidiaries. The ability to pay such dividends is limited by the applicable laws and regulations of the various countries and states in which these subsidiaries operate, including, among others, Bermuda.

The primary sources of our cash inflows are premiums, reinsurance recoveries, proceeds from sales and redemptions of investments and investment income. The primary cash outflows are claim payments, loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance costs, underwriting, acquisition and overhead expenses, interest expense, purchases of investments, payment of preferred dividends and income taxes. Management believes that cash inflows are sufficient to cover cash outflows in the foreseeable future. We have access to additional sources of liquidity should the need for additional cash arise.

Cash provided by operating activities can fluctuate due to timing differences in the collection of premiums and reinsurance recoveries and the payment of losses and expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $83.6 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $271.5 million, respectively. The decrease in cash flows from operating activities in 2024 compared to 2023 was attributable to various fluctuations within our operating activities, and primarily related to the timing of reinsurance payments and recoveries, claim payments and premium cash receipts in the respective periods. The decrease in premium is a result of a strategic reassessment of our various lines of business.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $342.1 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $322.1 million for the same period in 2023. Net cash used in investing activities in 2024 was mainly the result of purchases of short-term investments, private loan investments, mortgage loans, and other investments offset by net proceeds from fixed maturities investments.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $192.1 million compared to $6.5 million net cash used in 2023. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2024 was driven by the issuance of our common shares to Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd.

Revolving Credit Facility

On February 21, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 6 (“Amendment No. 6”) of the Credit Agreement with the financial institutions party thereto as lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., individually as a lender and as administrative agent (the “Credit Agreement”). Amendment No. 6, among other things, replaced the minimum Tangible Net Worth covenant in the Credit Agreement with a minimum Consolidated Net Worth. The Consolidated Net Worth covenant is tested at the end of each fiscal quarter and has been set at an amount equal to the sum of (i) $872.0 million plus (ii) 50% of positive net income for each fiscal quarter ending after December 31, 2023 plus (iii) 50% of net proceeds received from the issuance and sale of certain equity interests after December 31, 2023.

On February 22, 2024, the Company borrowed $100.0 million from the revolving credit facility and elected a one-month term and interest option, under the terms of the Credit Agreement. The loan had been renewed using the one-month option until May 29, 2024, when the Company repaid the $100.0 million borrowed under the revolving credit facility. The facility was subsequently terminated on June 4, 2024. On June 4, 2024, the Company was named as a party under Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd.’s $1.2 billion revolving credit facility.

Letter of Credit Facilities

On September 30, 2024, letters of credit totaling $30.8 million were outstanding, of which $17.7 million were issued against the committed secured bilateral letter of credit facility and $13.1 million were issued against the uncommitted, secured bilateral letter of credit facility. Collateral with a market value of $40.0 million was pledged to these banks as security against these letters of credit.

47

Preferred Stock Dividends

On August 16, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $437.50 per share on our 7.00% Resettable Fixed Rate Preferred Stock, Series A, par value of $1.00 per share, with a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). Holders of depositary shares, each representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Depositary Shares”), will receive $0.43750 per Depositary Share. On September 16, 2024, we paid $2.6 million to our stockholders of record, as of August 31, 2024, of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Capital Contribution

On February 20, 2024, Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. made a $100.0 million capital contribution to the Company in exchange for the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On May 28, 2024, Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. made another $100.0 million capital contribution to the Company in exchange for the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

In accordance with Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X, we have elected to present condensed consolidating financial information in lieu of separate Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for Argo Group US, Inc. (the “Subsidiary Issuer”). The following tables present condensed consolidating financial information as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, of the Company (the “Parent Guarantor”) and the Subsidiary Issuer. The Subsidiary Issuer is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the Parent Guarantor under the equity method for purposes of the supplemental consolidating presentation. Earnings of subsidiaries are reflected in the Parent Guarantor’s investment accounts and earnings.

In September 2012, the Parent Guarantor, through its Subsidiary Issuer, issued $143.8 million aggregate principal amount of the Subsidiary Issuer’s 6.5% Senior Notes due September 15, 2042 (the “Notes”). The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Subsidiary Issuer and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Subsidiary Issuer’s other unsecured and unsubordinated debt. The Notes are guaranteed on a full and unconditional senior unsecured basis by the Parent Guarantor. The Notes may be redeemed, for cash, in whole or in part at the Subsidiary Issuer’s option, at any time and from time to time, prior to maturity at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.

Condensed consolidating financial information of the Subsidiary Issuer is presented on a consolidated basis and consists principally of the net assets and results of operations of operating insurance company subsidiaries.

Recent Accounting Standards and Critical Accounting Estimates

New Accounting Standards

The discussion of the adoption and pending adoption of recently issued accounting policies is included in Note 2, “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1 - “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited).”

Critical Accounting Estimates

Refer to “Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K for information on accounting estimates and policies that we consider critical in preparing our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These policies include significant estimates made by management using information available at the time the estimates were made. However, these estimates could change materially if different information or assumptions were used.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates described in our 2023 Form 10-K.

51

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We believe that we are principally exposed to four types of market risk: interest rate risk, credit risk, equity price risk and foreign currency risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Our primary market risk exposure on fixed maturity investments relates to interest rate risk and the changes in interest rates. Fluctuations in interest rates have a direct impact on the fair value of these securities. As interest rates rise, the fair value of our fixed maturity portfolio falls, and the converse is also true. We manage interest rate risk through an active portfolio management strategy that involves the selection of investments with appropriate characteristics such as duration, yield, currency and liquidity that are tailored to the anticipated cash outflow characteristics of our liabilities. A significant portion of our investment portfolio matures each year, allowing for reinvestment at current market rates. The model duration of the assets comprising our fixed maturity investment portfolio was 2.23 years and 2.68 years at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Credit Risk

We have exposure to credit risk on losses recoverable from reinsurers and receivables from insureds. Our controls to mitigate this risk include limiting our exposure to any one counterparty, evaluating the financial strength of our reinsurers, canceling policies, generally requiring minimum credit ratings and in certain cases receiving collateral from our reinsurers and insureds.

We also have exposure to credit risk in our investment holdings. Our risk management strategy and investment policy attempts to mitigate this risk by primarily investing in debt instruments of high credit quality issuers, limiting credit concentration, monitoring the credit quality of issuers and counterparties and diversifying issuers. The weighted average rating of our fixed maturity investments was A with 96.9% and A with 94.0% rated investment grade or better (BBB- or higher) at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

We review our investments to identify and evaluate those that may have credit impairments on a quarterly basis, considering the historical performance of the security, available market information, and credit ratings, among other things. For fixed maturity securities, the review includes consideration of current ratings and actions of major rating agencies (Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch). If a security has two ratings, the lower rating is used. If a security has three ratings, the middle rating is used. The following table reflects the credit quality of our fixed maturity portfolio at September 30, 2024:

52

Other Fixed Maturities	Cost		Fair Value
AAA	$	271.9	$	277.4
AA	95.0		97.7

CCC and Below	17.3		17.2
Unrated	—		—
Total Fixed Maturities	$	2,283.6	$	2,368.2

Our portfolio also includes alternative investments with a carrying value at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 of $430.3 million and $311.0 million (10.8% and 8.9% of total invested assets), respectively. We may invest in both long and short equities, corporate debt securities, currencies, real estate, commodities and derivatives. We attempt to mitigate our risk by selecting managers with extensive experience, proven track records and robust controls and processes. We also attempt to mitigate our risk by diversifying through multiple managers and different types of assets and asset classes.

Mortgage loans add portfolio diversification. These assets typically afford credit protections through covenants and deeper due diligence given information access. We also monitor debt service coverage ratios and loan-to-value ratios in our assessment of credit risk and exposure.

Equity Price Risk

We hold a diversified portfolio of equity securities with a fair value of $85.3 million and $10.7 million (2.1% and 0.3% of total invested assets) at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Our equity securities are exposed to equity price risk which is defined as the potential for loss in fair value due to a decline in equity prices. We believe the diversification of our equity securities among various industries, market segments and issuers, as well as the use of multiple outside investment managers, mitigates our exposure to equity price risk.

53

Foreign Currency Risk

We have exposure to foreign currency risk in our insurance contracts and invested assets and, prior to the sale of AUA, a portion of our debt. We attempt to manage our foreign currency risk by seeking to match our liabilities under insurance and reinsurance contracts that are payable in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar with cash and investments that are denominated in such currencies. We also use foreign exchange forward contracts to attempt to mitigate this risk. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized $0.0 million and $3.0 million of gross gains $1.7 million and $5.3 million of gross losses from foreign exchange contracts, for a net loss of $1.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized $2.3 million and $11.1 million of gross gains and $3.8 million and $10.6 million of gross losses from foreign exchange contracts, for a net loss of $1.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The net losses are recorded in the Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). With the divestitures executed and announced in 2023, our exposure to foreign currency risk has decreased.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Argo Group, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024, at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Argo Group in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting made during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Argo Group,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” mean Argo Group International Holdings, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries, taken together as a whole.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We and our subsidiaries are parties to legal actions from time to time, generally incidental to our and their business. While any litigation or arbitration proceedings include an element of uncertainty, management believes that the resolution of these matters will not materially affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Federal Securities Class Action

The Police & Fire Retirement System City of Detroit v. Argo Group International Holdings, Inc., et al., No. 22-cv-8971 (S.D.N.Y.)

On October 20, 2022, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers, alleging securities fraud violations under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Plaintiff alleges that from February 13, 2018 through August 9, 2022, the defendants made false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s reserves and underwriting standards. On January 18, 2023, U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan granted the Police and Fire Retirement System City of Detroit and the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System’s joint motion for appointment as lead plaintiff. On March 27, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint. On May 26, 2023, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended class action complaint. On July 13, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an opposition to such motion, after which defendants filed a reply on August 14, 2023.

Bermuda Appraisal Petitions

In April 2023, appraisal petitions were filed in the Supreme Court of Bermuda (the “Court”) relating to the acquisition of the Company by Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. for $30.00 per share (the “Transaction Price”) that closed on November 16, 2023.

The petitions were filed by certain stockholders pursuant to Section 106(6) of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 and are captioned Corbin Erisa Opportunity Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Corbin Opportunity Fund, L.P. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Event Opportunities, LP v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Global Opportunities Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Special Opportunities Fund, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., and FW Deep Value Opportunities Fund I, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd.

Section 106(6) permits a stockholder of a Bermuda corporation, such as the Company, to petition the Court for a determination of the fair value of the Company’s shares if they are not satisfied with the Transaction Price.

On January 3, 2024, the Company filed a summons to stay the appraisal action pending judgment of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the matter captioned “In re matter of Jardine Strategy Holdings Limited Case No: Civ/2022/14-31.” Hearings were held on July 9, 2024 and July 18, 2024. The Court is considering the stay application and will issue a decision in due course. The Company intends to continue to defend this matter vigorously.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Argo Group International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Argo Group,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Argo Group is an underwriter of specialty insurance products in the property and casualty market.

On November 16, 2023, we merged with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. (formerly known as Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd.), which resulted in a change to the Company’s ownership (the “Merger”). Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. elected to push-down its purchase accounting, which resulted in the Company reflecting the fair market value of our assets and liabilities as of November 16, 2023, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all of our assets and liabilities. As such, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows subsequent to the acquisition are not comparable with those prior to November 16, 2023, and therefore have been separated to indicate pre-acquisition and post-acquisition periods. The pre-acquisition period through November 15, 2023 is referred to as the Predecessor. The post-acquisition period, November 16, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the Successor.

The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The major estimates reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, but are not limited to, reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses; reinsurance recoverables, including the reinsurance recoverables allowance for expected credit losses; fair value of investments and assessment of potential impairment, including the allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities; valuation of intangibles, including those identified as part of purchase accounting related to the Merger, and our deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including certain financial statement footnotes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The interim financial information as of, and for the three and nine months ended, September 30, 2024 and 2023 is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results presented for the interim periods. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All material intercompany amounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to financial information presented for prior years to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc.

On September 25, 2024, the Company and AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc.”). The purpose of the Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., was to reduce the Company’s annual franchise taxes in the State of Delaware by reducing the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock. In connection with the consummation of the Merger with AGIH Merger Sub, Inc., the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock decreased from 2,000,000,000 to 1,000, each share of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company was converted into and became one hundred millionth (1/100,000,000) of a validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, and the number of authorized shares of the Company’s preferred stock decreased from 30,000,000 to 10,000.

The merger constituted a common-control transaction as defined under current accounting standards as there was no change in control over the net assets of the Company. Therefore, these resulting financial statements reflect the financial position and results of operations as if the merger had occurred on January 1, 2024.

Purchase Accounting Measurement Period Adjustment

The Merger resulted in a $48.9 million bargain purchase, which is uncommon, since the value of the net assets acquired exceeded the purchase consideration. The values of certain assets and liabilities are considered preliminary in nature and are subject to adjustment during the measurement period as additional information is obtained. As the valuations are finalized, any changes to the preliminary valuation of assets acquired or liabilities assumed may result in retrospective adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reduced its bargain purchase amount by $15.3 million to $33.6 million, resulting in a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. The adjustment related to the Company’s valuation of loss reserves for its U.S. Operations.

Commutation of Riverstone Holdings Limited Reinsurance Agreement

On June 2, 2024, the Company entered into a commutation with Riverstone Holdings Limited (part of the RiverStone International group) on its legacy assumed business from our former Malta operations, ArgoGlobal Holdings (Malta) Ltd., which was sold in 2022. This transaction had no material impact on our net income. The final consideration of $86.7 million was paid to Riverstone Holdings Limited on July 1, 2024.

Sale of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited

On September 8, 2022, Argo International Holdings Limited (the “Seller”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Ohio Farmers Insurance Company (the “Buyer”), part of the Westfield group of insurance companies, entered into a sale and purchase agreement (the “Transaction”) under which the Seller agreed to sell, and the Buyer agreed to purchase, the entire issued share capital of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited (“AUA”), for which the financial results are reported in our International segment.

On February 2, 2023, the Seller completed the sale of the entire issued share capital of AUA.

The Company received total consideration of $161.3 million, which included cash proceeds of $130.7 million as base consideration and an additional $30.6 million which was placed in escrow by the Buyer related to certain reinsurance-related recoverables. The funds in escrow may be released to the Seller over a period of two years following the closing. At the end of the two-year escrow period, any remaining balance of the escrow will be returned to the Buyer. Since the sale of AUA, $13.1 million of the consideration placed in escrow was released to the Company.

As a result of the sale, we realized a loss of $20.3 million in the first quarter of 2023, which is included as a component of Net realized investment and other gains (losses) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). This loss is due to the realization of unrealized investment losses, which were previously a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Company holds a total of 1,152 fixed maturity securities, of which 51 were in an unrealized loss position for less than one year and none were in an unrealized loss position for a period of one year or greater as of September 30, 2024. The unrealized losses as of September 30, 2024 are primarily driven by interest rate movements.

Allowance for Credit Losses

For fixed maturities with a decline in fair value below the amortized cost due to credit-related factors, an allowance is established for the difference between the estimated recoverable value and amortized cost with a corresponding charge to Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The allowance is limited to the difference between amortized cost and fair value. The estimated recoverable value is the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, as determined by management. The difference between fair value and amortized cost that is not associated with credit-related factors is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accrued interest is excluded from the measurement of the allowance for credit losses.

When determining if a credit loss has been incurred, we may consider the historical performance of the security, available market information and security specific considerations such as the priority payment of the security. In addition, inputs used in our analysis include, but are not limited to, credit ratings and downgrades, delinquency rates, missed scheduled interest or principal payments, purchase yields, underlying asset performance, collateral types, modeled default rates, modeled severity rates, call/prepayment rates, expected cash flows, industry concentrations, and potential or filed bankruptcies or restructurings.

In cooperation with our investment managers, we evaluate for credit losses each quarter utilizing a bottom up review approach. At the security level, a determination is made as to whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is due to credit-related or noncredit-related factors. If we determine that all or a portion of a fixed maturity is uncollectible, the uncollectible amortized cost is written off with a corresponding reduction to the allowance for credit losses. If we collect cash flows that were previously written off, the recovery is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses). We also consider whether we intend to sell an available-for-sale security or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. In these instances, a decline in fair value is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) based on the fair value of the security at the time of assessment, resulting in a new cost basis for the security.

The following table presents a roll-forward of the changes in allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale fixed maturities by industry category for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:

For mortgage loans an allowance for credit losses is established at the time of origination or purchase, as necessary, and is updated each reporting period. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in Net investment and other gains (losses). This allowance reflects the risk of loss, even when that risk is remote, that is expected over the remaining contractual life of the loan. The allowance for credit losses considers available relevant information about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

Foreign Currency Exchange Forward Contracts

We entered into foreign currency exchange forward contracts primarily to manage currency exposure from our non-USD insurance operations. The currency forward contracts were carried at fair value in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Other liabilities and Other assets at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The net realized gains and (losses) are included in Net realized investment and other gains (losses) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

The fair value of our foreign currency exchange forward contracts as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was as follows:

Regulatory Deposits, Pledged Securities and Letters of Credit

We are required to maintain assets on deposit with various regulatory authorities to support our insurance and reinsurance operations. We maintain assets pledged as collateral in support of irrevocable letters of credit issued under the terms of certain reinsurance agreements for loss and loss expense reserves. The following table presents our components of restricted investments:

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market that are independent, knowledgeable, able to transact for the asset or liability and willing to transfer the asset or liability.

Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. The inputs of these valuation techniques are categorized into three levels.

•Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the reporting date. We define actively traded as a security that has traded in the past seven days.

•Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. We receive one quote per instrument for Level 2 inputs.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect our own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Significant increases (decreases) in those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

To validate the fair value of investments in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we receive prices from multiple sources including third-party pricing services and our outside investment managers. Through a comparative analysis, the Company validates the reasonableness of its valuations. These prices are determined using observable market information such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things. We have reviewed the processes used by the third-party providers for pricing the securities and have determined that these processes result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure assets at fair value is as follows:

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Levels 1 and 2:

•United States Treasury securities are typically valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

•United States Government agencies, non-U.S. Government securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, credit securities and foreign denominated government and credit securities are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

•Asset and mortgage-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Level 3: We own term loans and asset-back securities that are valued using unobservable inputs.

Equity Securities Level 1: For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

Equity Securities Level 3: We own certain equity securities that are reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The valuation techniques for these securities include the following:

•Fair value measurements for an investment in an equity fund obtained by applying final prices provided by the administrator of the fund, which is based upon certain estimates and assumptions.

•Fair value measurements from brokers and independent valuation services, both based upon estimates, assumptions and other unobservable inputs.

Short-term Investments: Short-term investments are principally reported at fair value using Level 1 inputs, with the exception of short-term corporate and governmental bonds reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs as described in the fixed maturities section above. Values for the investments categorized as Level 1 are obtained from various financial institutions as of the reporting date.

Other investments: Other investments include private securities for which we have elected the fair value option of accounting, and are valued using unobservable Level 3 inputs.

Derivative assets: As a result of the Company’s commutation of the assumed reinsurance agreement with Riverstone Holdings Limited, the Company classified the ceded reserves on the Malta business as a derivative in accordance with ASC 815. As the ceded reserves are shorter term in nature, management has concluded that the fair value is equivalent to its carrying value, resulting in no impact to earnings.

Derivative liabilities: We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our investment exposure to foreign currencies. These derivatives are carried at fair value using Level 2 inputs, primarily observable foreign exchange rates at the end of the period.

Based on an analysis of the inputs, our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis have been categorized as follows:

The fair value measurements in the tables above do not equal Total investments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as they primarily exclude Mortgage loans, Private loans, certain Other investments and Short-term investments. Our mortgage loans and private loans, some of which are classified as short-term investments based on the time to maturity at acquisition, are carried at amortized cost. Certain other investments are accounted for in accordance with the equity-method of accounting, carried at amortized cost or use NAV as a practical expedient.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the investments categorized as Level 3 are as follows:

At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have any financial assets or financial liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The Company holds certain investments at cost, less an allowance for expected credit losses, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Company’s investments is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis. Due to the level of unobservable inputs factored into the estimation of fair value, the valuation would be categorized as Level 3. The cost and estimated fair value of these investments were:

(1)For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the adjustment relates to the year-to-date activity of Syndicate 1200 and on reinsurance contracts with AUA subsidiaries. Refer to the sale of Argo Underwriting Agency Limited in Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information.

(2) In connection with the sale of AUA, the Company entered into two retroactive reinsurance agreements with AUA subsidiaries.

(3) Impact of measurement period adjustment in connection with the Merger. Refer to Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information.

Reserves for losses and LAE represent the estimated indemnity cost and related adjustment expenses necessary to investigate and settle claims. Such estimates are based upon individual case estimates for reported claims, estimates from ceding companies for reinsurance assumed and actuarial estimates for losses that have been incurred but not yet reported to the insurer. Any change in probable ultimate liabilities is reflected in current operating results.

The impact from the unfavorable (favorable) development of prior accident years’ loss and LAE reserves on each reporting segment is presented below: 

	Successor		Predecessor
(in millions)	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
U.S. Operations	$	125.1	$	111.7
International Operations	77.3		11.7
Run-off Lines	7.3		2.6
Total unfavorable (favorable) prior-year development	$	209.7	$	126.0

The following describes the primary factors behind each segment’s net prior accident year loss reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

Nine months ended September 30, 2024:

•U.S. Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to the recognition of higher-than-expected loss experience across a number of specialty, casualty, and professional lines and by updates to the expectations for future loss experience and development, along with movements on large individual surety claims in specialty lines.

•International Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to the recognition of higher-than-expected loss experience in Bermuda professional and casualty lines and by updates to the expectations for future loss experience and development.

•Run-off Lines: Net unfavorable loss reserve development on prior accident years in other run-off lines.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023:

•U.S. Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to liability and professional lines partially offset by favorable development in specialty lines. The liability lines development was driven by actual losses greater than expected including the impact of large claims with a significant portion of the unfavorable development coming from businesses we have exited. The professional lines development was driven by movements on individual management liability claims. The favorable development in specialty lines was due to a lack of claim activity in surety business.

•International Operations: Net unfavorable development primarily related to movements on claims in professional and liability lines in our Bermuda operations partially offset by favorable development in runoff Reinsurance lines.

•Run-off Lines: Net unfavorable loss reserve development on prior accident years in other run-off lines.

Our reserves represent the best estimate of our ultimate liabilities, based on currently known facts, current law, current technology and reasonable assumptions where facts are not known. Due to the significant uncertainties and related management judgments, there can be no assurance that future favorable or unfavorable loss development, which may be material, will not occur.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment securities, mortgage loan and private loan investments, and short-term investments. See Note 3, “Investments,” for additional information.

Premiums receivable and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses. The carrying value of current receivables and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses approximates fair value due to short-term nature.

Debt. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of our debt instruments is determined using both Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, as previously defined in Note 3, “Investments.”

We receive fair value prices for similar financial instruments being traded in active markets. These prices are determined using observable market information such as publicly traded quoted prices, and trading prices for similar financial instruments actively being traded in the current market. We have reviewed the processes used by third-party providers for pricing these instruments and have determined that they result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure these liabilities at fair value is as follows:

Senior Unsecured Fixed Rate Notes Level 1:

•Our senior unsecured fixed rate notes are valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

Junior Subordinated Debentures Level 2:

•Our trust preferred debentures and subordinated debentures are typically valued using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements using quoted prices for similar securities being traded in active markets at the reporting date, as our specific debt instruments are less frequently traded.

A summary of our financial instruments whose carrying value did not equal fair value is shown below:

	September 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
(in millions)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Junior subordinated debentures:
Trust preferred debentures	$	161.7	$	172.7	$	160.8	$	165.9
Subordinated debentures	81.0		84.9		80.4		83.3
Total junior subordinated debentures	242.7		257.6		241.2		249.2
Senior unsecured fixed rate notes	128.7		130.4		128.0		132.7

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company was incorporated under the laws of Bermuda until November 30, 2023. Under Bermuda law, the Company was not obligated to pay any tax in Bermuda based upon income or capital gains. We previously received an undertaking from the Supervisor of Insurance in Bermuda pursuant to the provisions of the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act, 2011 which exempted us from any Bermuda taxes computed on profits, income or any capital asset, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate, duty or inheritance tax, at least until the year 2035. As of November 30, 2023, the Company redomiciled from Bermuda to the United States. In connection with redomiciling from Bermuda to the United States, the Company’s predecessor pre-tax loss and tax benefit is reported in Bermuda. Subsequent to redomiciling, the Company’s successor pre-tax income and tax provision is reported in the U.S. Separately, Argo Re has submitted an Internal Revenue Code Section 953(d) election to treat the entity as a U.S. taxpayer. The election is deemed retroactive to the period beginning January 1, 2023. Argo Re pre-tax loss for the predecessor period is reported in Bermuda. The retroactive U.S. tax benefit incurred for the predecessor period is reflected in purchase accounting. Argo Re pre-tax income and tax provision is reported in the United States for the successor period.

On February 2, 2023, Argo International Holdings Limited, a wholly-owned U.K. subsidiary of the Company, sold AUA. See Note 1, “Business and Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information related to this transaction. The predecessor period includes activity of AUA until it was sold. Subsequent to the AUA sale, the Company retained one U.K. subsidiary that is subject to the tax laws of that country. Under current law, the subsidiary is taxed at the applicable corporate tax rates and files a separate U.K. income tax return.

We have subsidiaries based in the U.S. that are subject to U.S. tax laws. Under current law, these subsidiaries are taxed at the applicable corporate tax rates. Beginning January 1, 2024, our U.S. subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return with BAMR US Holdings LLC, a subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd.

We also have operations in Ireland and Italy which are subject to income taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which they operate. Furthermore, we have an operation in Barbados which is not subject to income tax under the laws of that country.

On August 16, 2022, U.S. legislation referred to as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was enacted. This legislation enacted a new Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”) and Excise Tax on Repurchases of Corporate Stock. The Company has determined as of the period ended September 30, 2024, that it is subject to CAMT. The recognition of applicable CAMT is reported on a consolidated basis with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. The Company is not subject to Excise Tax on Repurchases of Corporate Stock.

Our expected income tax provision computed on pre-tax income (loss) at the weighted average tax rate has been calculated as the sum of the pre-tax income (loss) in each jurisdiction multiplied by that jurisdiction’s applicable statutory tax rate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, pre-tax income (loss) attributable to our operations and the corresponding operations’ effective tax rates were as follows: 

	Successor				Predecessor
	Three Months Ended September 30, 2024				Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
(in millions)	Pre-Tax Income (Loss)		Effective Tax Rate		Pre-Tax Income (Loss)			Effective Tax Rate

(1) Pre-tax income (loss) for the respective year was less than $0.1 million.

A reconciliation of the difference between the provision (benefit) for income taxes and the expected tax provision (benefit) at the weighted average tax rate is as follows:

	Successor		Predecessor		Successor		Predecessor
(in millions)	Three Months Ended September 30, 2024		Three Months Ended September 30, 2023		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Other	0.7		0.9		1.2		0.2
Income tax provision (benefit)	$	(34.4)	$	17.6	$	(27.2)	$	3.3

Our gross deferred tax assets are supported by taxes paid in previous periods, reversal of taxable temporary differences and recognition of future taxable income. Management regularly evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and makes any necessary adjustments to them based upon any changes in management’s expectations of future taxable income. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generation of future taxable income sufficient to recover tax benefits that cannot be recovered from taxes paid in the carryback period, generally for our U.S. property and casualty insurers two years for net operating losses and for all our U.S. subsidiaries three years for capital losses. If a company determines that any of its deferred tax assets will not result in future tax benefits, a valuation allowance must be established for the portion of these assets that are not expected to be realized. For three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the net change in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was an increase of $0.3 million and decrease of $2.2 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the change in valuation allowance related to the limited net operating loss carryforwards incurred in the United Kingdom. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the change in valuation allowance primarily related to the following: $3.3 million decrease related to an Ireland Capital Loss due to dissolution and a $1.1 million increase related to limited net operating loss carryforwards incurred in the United Kingdom. Based upon a review of our available evidence, both positive and negative discussed above, the Company concluded that it is more-likely-than-not that $65.9 million of our deferred tax assets will be realized.

For any uncertain tax positions not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold, accounting standards require recognition, measurement and disclosure in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. No change to the uncertain tax positions were recorded for federal or state income tax liability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. A net decrease of interest in the amount of $1.1 million has been recorded in the line item Interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. A net decrease of penalty in the amount of $0.2 million has been recorded in the line item Underwriting, acquisition, and general expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company did not incur interest and penalty for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Our U.S. subsidiaries are no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020. Our U.K. subsidiary is no longer subject to U.K. income tax examinations by His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs for years before 2022.

Legal Actions

Argo Group’s subsidiaries are parties to legal actions incidental to their business. As of September 30, 2024, management believes that the resolution of these matters would not materially affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Federal Securities Class Action

The Police & Fire Retirement System City of Detroit v. Argo Group International Holdings, Inc., et al., No. 22-cv-8971 (S.D.N.Y.)

On October 20, 2022, a securities class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers, alleging securities fraud violations under sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Plaintiff alleges that from February 13, 2018 through August 9, 2022, the defendants made false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s reserves and underwriting standards. On January 18, 2023, U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan granted the Police and Fire Retirement System City of Detroit and the Oklahoma Law Enforcement Retirement System’s joint motion for appointment as lead plaintiff. On March 27, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint. On May 26, 2023, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended class action complaint. On July 13, 2023, lead plaintiffs filed an opposition to such motion, after which defendants filed a reply on August 14, 2023.

Bermuda Appraisal Petitions

In April 2023, appraisal petitions were filed in the Supreme Court of Bermuda (the “Court”) relating to the acquisition of the Company by Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. for $30.00 per share (the “Transaction Price”) that closed on November 16, 2023.

The petitions were filed by certain stockholders pursuant to Section 106(6) of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 and are captioned Corbin Erisa Opportunity Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Corbin Opportunity Fund, L.P. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Event Opportunities, LP v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Global Opportunities Fund, Ltd. v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Fourworld Special Opportunities Fund, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., and FW Deep Value Opportunities Fund I, LLC v. Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd.

Section 106(6) permits a stockholder of a Bermuda corporation, such as the Company, to petition the Court for a determination of the fair value of the Company’s shares if they are not satisfied with the Transaction Price.

On January 3, 2024, the Company filed a summons to stay the appraisal action pending judgment of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the matter captioned “In re matter of Jardine Strategy Holdings Limited Case No: Civ/2022/14-31.” Hearings were held on July 9, 2024 and July 18, 2024. The Court is considering the stay application and will issue a decision in due course. The Company intends to continue to defend this matter vigorously.

Contractual Commitments

We have contractual commitments to invest up to $82.2 million related to our limited partnership investments at September 30, 2024, as further disclosed in Note 3, “Investments.” These commitments will be funded as required by the partnership agreements which can be called to be fulfilled at any time.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Segment Information

We are primarily engaged in underwriting property and casualty insurance. We have two ongoing reporting segments: U.S. Operations and International Operations. Additionally, we have Run-off Lines for certain products that we no longer underwrite.

We consider many factors, including the nature of each segment’s insurance and reinsurance products, production sources, distribution strategies and the regulatory environment, in determining how to aggregate reporting segments.

In evaluating the operating performance of our segments, we focus on core underwriting and investing results before the consideration of realized gains or losses from investments. Net investment and other gains (losses) are reported as a component of the Corporate and Other segment, as decisions regarding the acquisition and disposal of securities reside with the corporate investment function and are not under the control of the individual business segments. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets used in the operation of each segment.

Revenue and income (loss) before income taxes for each segment were as follows:

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Argo Group International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Argo Group,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Argo Group is an underwriter of specialty insurance products in the property and casualty market.

On November 16, 2023, we merged with Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. (formerly known as Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd.), which resulted in a change to the Company’s ownership (the “Merger”). Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. elected to push-down its purchase accounting, which resulted in the Company reflecting the fair market value of our assets and liabilities as of November 16, 2023, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all of our assets and liabilities. As such, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows subsequent to the acquisition are not comparable with those prior to November 16, 2023, and therefore have been separated to indicate pre-acquisition and post-acquisition periods. The pre-acquisition period through November 15, 2023 is referred to as the Predecessor. The post-acquisition period, November 16, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the Successor.

The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The major estimates reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, but are not limited to, reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses; reinsurance recoverables, including the reinsurance recoverables allowance for expected credit losses; fair value of investments and assessment of potential impairment, including the allowance for credit losses on fixed maturity securities; valuation of intangibles, including those identified as part of purchase accounting related to the Merger, and our deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including certain financial statement footnotes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The interim financial information as of, and for the three and nine months ended, September 30, 2024 and 2023 is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results presented for the interim periods. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All material intercompany amounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to financial information presented for prior years to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

For fixed maturities with a decline in fair value below the amortized cost due to credit-related factors, an allowance is established for the difference between the estimated recoverable value and amortized cost with a corresponding charge to Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The allowance is limited to the difference between amortized cost and fair value. The estimated recoverable value is the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, as determined by management. The difference between fair value and amortized cost that is not associated with credit-related factors is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Accrued interest is excluded from the measurement of the allowance for credit losses.

When determining if a credit loss has been incurred, we may consider the historical performance of the security, available market information and security specific considerations such as the priority payment of the security. In addition, inputs used in our analysis include, but are not limited to, credit ratings and downgrades, delinquency rates, missed scheduled interest or principal payments, purchase yields, underlying asset performance, collateral types, modeled default rates, modeled severity rates, call/prepayment rates, expected cash flows, industry concentrations, and potential or filed bankruptcies or restructurings.

In cooperation with our investment managers, we evaluate for credit losses each quarter utilizing a bottom up review approach. At the security level, a determination is made as to whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is due to credit-related or noncredit-related factors. If we determine that all or a portion of a fixed maturity is uncollectible, the uncollectible amortized cost is written off with a corresponding reduction to the allowance for credit losses. If we collect cash flows that were previously written off, the recovery is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses). We also consider whether we intend to sell an available-for-sale security or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. In these instances, a decline in fair value is recognized in Net investment and other gains (losses) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) based on the fair value of the security at the time of assessment, resulting in a new cost basis for the security.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment securities, mortgage loan and private loan investments, and short-term investments. See Note 3, “Investments,” for additional information.

Premiums receivable and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses. The carrying value of current receivables and reinsurance recoverables on paid losses approximates fair value due to short-term nature.

Debt. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of our debt instruments is determined using both Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, as previously defined in Note 3, “Investments.”

We receive fair value prices for similar financial instruments being traded in active markets. These prices are determined using observable market information such as publicly traded quoted prices, and trading prices for similar financial instruments actively being traded in the current market. We have reviewed the processes used by third-party providers for pricing these instruments and have determined that they result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure these liabilities at fair value is as follows:

Senior Unsecured Fixed Rate Notes Level 1:

•Our senior unsecured fixed rate notes are valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

Junior Subordinated Debentures Level 2:

•Our trust preferred debentures and subordinated debentures are typically valued using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements using quoted prices for similar securities being traded in active markets at the reporting date, as our specific debt instruments are less frequently traded.

A summary of our financial instruments whose carrying value did not equal fair value is shown below:

	September 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
(in millions)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Junior subordinated debentures:

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market that are independent, knowledgeable, able to transact for the asset or liability and willing to transfer the asset or liability.

Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. The inputs of these valuation techniques are categorized into three levels.

•Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the reporting date. We define actively traded as a security that has traded in the past seven days.

•Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. We receive one quote per instrument for Level 2 inputs.

•Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect our own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Significant increases (decreases) in those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

To validate the fair value of investments in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we receive prices from multiple sources including third-party pricing services and our outside investment managers. Through a comparative analysis, the Company validates the reasonableness of its valuations. These prices are determined using observable market information such as dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things. We have reviewed the processes used by the third-party providers for pricing the securities and have determined that these processes result in fair values consistent with GAAP requirements. In addition, we review these prices for reasonableness, and have not adjusted any prices received from the third-party providers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. A description of the valuation techniques we use to measure assets at fair value is as follows:

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Levels 1 and 2:

•United States Treasury securities are typically valued using Level 1 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

•United States Government agencies, non-U.S. Government securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, credit securities and foreign denominated government and credit securities are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

•Asset and mortgage-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from third-party pricing services. Observable data may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Fixed Maturities (Available-for-Sale) Level 3: We own term loans and asset-back securities that are valued using unobservable inputs.

Equity Securities Level 1: For these securities, we obtain fair value measurements from a third-party pricing service using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets at the reporting date.

Equity Securities Level 3: We own certain equity securities that are reported at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The valuation techniques for these securities include the following:

•Fair value measurements for an investment in an equity fund obtained by applying final prices provided by the administrator of the fund, which is based upon certain estimates and assumptions.

•Fair value measurements from brokers and independent valuation services, both based upon estimates, assumptions and other unobservable inputs.

Short-term Investments: Short-term investments are principally reported at fair value using Level 1 inputs, with the exception of short-term corporate and governmental bonds reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs as described in the fixed maturities section above. Values for the investments categorized as Level 1 are obtained from various financial institutions as of the reporting date.

Other investments: Other investments include private securities for which we have elected the fair value option of accounting, and are valued using unobservable Level 3 inputs.

Derivative assets: As a result of the Company’s commutation of the assumed reinsurance agreement with Riverstone Holdings Limited, the Company classified the ceded reserves on the Malta business as a derivative in accordance with ASC 815. As the ceded reserves are shorter term in nature, management has concluded that the fair value is equivalent to its carrying value, resulting in no impact to earnings.

Derivative liabilities: We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our investment exposure to foreign currencies. These derivatives are carried at fair value using Level 2 inputs, primarily observable foreign exchange rates at the end of the period.
