WHITE MOUNTAINS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
HAMILTON, Bermuda (August 3, 2016) - White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. (NYSE: WTM) reported June 30, 2016 book value per share of $781 and adjusted book value per share of $785. Book value per share was up 12% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2016, including dividends, while adjusted book value per share was up 11% and 12% for the second quarter and first six months of 2016, including dividends. Including the estimated gain of $16 per share for the Tranzact sale, which closed in July, book value per share would be approximately $797 and adjusted book value per share would be approximately $801 at June 30, 2016.
Ray Barrette, Chairman and CEO, commented, “It was a significant quarter for White Mountains. We closed the Sirius Group sale, which resulted in a $90 per share gain at closing. OneBeacon grew its book value by 2.4% on good investment returns and a tax gain despite an elevated combined ratio driven by poor results in extended care facilities. The GAAP total return on invested assets was 0.8% for the quarter and 2.4% for the first six months of 2016. Our investment team has productively reinvested a good portion of the Sirius Group sale proceeds. We wrote down our investment in Star & Shield, reducing book value by about $4 per share. All remaining Life Re contracts expired in the quarter. We agreed to sell Tranzact, which will add another $16 per share in the third quarter, a nice gain on a relatively short investment thanks to the strong performance of the Tranzact team led by David Graf. We have returned almost $600 million of capital to shareholders this year, mostly through share repurchases. Common shares outstanding are now below 5 million for the first time in our history. Undeployed capital stands at about $2 billion. We continue to actively look for good opportunities in these tough markets around the world.”
Comprehensive income attributable to common shareholders increased to $449 million and $500 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to comprehensive loss attributable to common shareholders of $13 million in the second quarter of last year and comprehensive income attributable to common shareholders of $12 million in the first six months of last year. Net income attributable to common shareholders was $341 million and $354 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to $4 million and $89 million in the second quarter and first six months of last year. The increases were driven by the gain from the sale of Sirius Group recorded in the second quarter of 2016.
Sirius Group Sale
On April 18, 2016, White Mountains completed the sale of Sirius International Insurance Group, Ltd., (“Sirius Group”) to CM International Holding Pte. Ltd., the Singapore-based investment arm of China Minsheng Investment Corp., Ltd. (“CMI”). The gross estimated purchase price paid at the closing was $2.6 billion. Approximately $160 million of this amount was used to purchase out of Sirius Group certain assets to be retained by White Mountains, including shares of OneBeacon. The transaction resulted in a gain of $90 per share in the second quarter of 2016. As a result of the transaction, Sirius Group’s results have been reported as discontinued operations within White Mountains’s GAAP financial statements. White Mountains also recorded $9 million in comprehensive losses from Sirius Group's operations in the second quarter of 2016, primarily due to $17 million of recorded losses from the Ecuador earthquake that occurred on April 16, 2016. Sirius Group’s results inured to White Mountains through the closing date of the transaction.
Tranzact Sale
On July 21, 2016, White Mountains completed the sale of Tranzact Holdings, LLC ("Tranzact") to an affiliate of Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC. White Mountains expects that the transaction will increase its book value by approximately $79 million, or $16 per share, in the third quarter of 2016. White Mountains invested $134 million in Tranzact in October 2014. As a result of the transaction, Tranzact’s results have been reported as discontinued operations within White Mountains’s GAAP financial statements.
OneBeacon
OneBeacon’s book value per share increased 2.4% for the second quarter and 6.9% for the first six months of 2016, including dividends. OneBeacon’s GAAP combined ratio was 103% and 99% for the second quarter and the first six months of 2016, compared to 95% for both the second quarter and the first six months of last year. Net unfavorable loss reserve development totaled 6 points and 3 points for the second quarter and the first six months of 2016, while loss reserve development was not significant in the second quarter and first six months of last year. The expense ratio was 37% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to 34% and 36% for the second quarter and first six months of last year. The increase in the expense ratios was driven by lower premium volume and changing business mix. The results for the first six months of 2016 included a $16 million tax benefit related to the settlement of IRS examinations, $13 million of which was recorded in the first quarter for tax years 2007-2009 and $3 million of which was recorded in the second quarter for tax years 2010-2012.
Mike Miller, CEO of OneBeacon, said, “Growth in book value per share at the half-year is healthy at 7%, reflecting good investment returns and tax benefits. Poor loss experience in our Healthcare business (primarily due to liability claims in extended care facilities) and in our Programs business resulted in a 103% combined ratio in the quarter. Our underwriting remains profitable year-to-date thanks to a portfolio of strong businesses. Corrective underwriting actions and soft market conditions resulted in a decline in premiums in the quarter and year-to-date periods. We are confident that we will maintain a profitable and growing portfolio of businesses over time.”
Net written premiums were $261 million in the second quarter of 2016 and $541 million in the first six months of 2016, a decrease of 18.7% and 11.0% from the comparable periods of last year. During 2015, OneBeacon exited its crop and lawyers liability businesses, and non-renewed an affiliated reinsurance treaty. These businesses reported net written premiums that totaled $32 million and $23 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2015. Additionally, during the second quarter and first six months of 2016, OneBeacon reduced premium writings in its Healthcare and Programs businesses through corrective underwriting actions. Excluding Healthcare and Programs, net written premiums from ongoing businesses were flat in the second quarter and declined 2.7% through the first six months of 2016 compared to last year, reflecting the persistent soft market conditions.

HG Global/BAM
In the second quarter of 2016, BAM insured $3.3 billion of municipal bonds, $3.1 billion of which were in the primary market. Including policies bound in the second quarter of 2016 for municipal bond deals that will close in the third quarter of 2016, BAM guaranteed $3.5 billion of municipal bonds. As of June 30, 2016, BAM’s total claims paying resources were $617 million on total par insured of $27.8 billion. Total claims paying resources increased $16 million from December 31, 2015 reflecting positive cashflow.
Sean McCarthy, Chief Executive Officer, said, “It was a record quarter for BAM, with new-issue par insured exceeding $3 billion for the first time. BAM wrapped $259 million of par in secondary markets, up 178% from the first quarter of this year. BAM’s claims-paying resources also grew at a record pace, rising $10 million to $617 million reflecting positive cashflow. The conservative nature of BAM’s portfolio was highlighted when Congress adopted legislation that allows for court-supervised restructuring of debts sold by U.S. territories and Puerto Rico defaulted on more than $700 million of general obligation bonds. BAM has no exposure to Puerto Rico, and its underwriting standards exclude insurance for any territorial debts. We now offer pre-sale Credit Profiles so investors in BAM-insured bonds can obtain standardized financial information on a timely basis. This results in greater investor demand for BAM-insured bonds, including increasing interest from institutional investors.”
HG Global reported pre-tax income of $6 million and $13 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to pre-tax income of $3 million and $9 million in the second quarter and first six months of last year. In non-controlling interests, White Mountains reported $9 million and $17 million of GAAP pre-tax loss related to BAM in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to GAAP pre-tax loss of $14 million and $23 million in the second quarter and first six months of last year. BAM’s affairs are managed on a statutory accounting basis, and it does not report stand-alone GAAP financial results. BAM’s statutory net loss was $8 million in both the second quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of last year. As a mutual insurance company that is owned by its members, BAM’s results do not affect White Mountains’s book value per share or adjusted book value per share. However, White Mountains is required to consolidate BAM’s results in its GAAP financial statements and its results are attributed to non-controlling interests.
Other Operations
White Mountains’s Other Operations segment reported pre-tax loss of $22 million and $51 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to pre-tax income of $3 million in the second quarter and a pre-tax loss of $19 million in the first six months of last year. Other revenue in the second quarter and first six months of 2015 include a $20 million gain from the sale of Hamer LLC. The first six months of 2016 also includes higher incentive compensation expenses, driven by the rising market price of White Mountains's common shares. White Mountains’s Other Operations segment reported near break-even net realized and unrealized investment losses and $6 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to $2 million and $9 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in the second quarter and first six months of last year. WM Life Re reported pre-tax loss of $1 million and $2 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2016, compared to break-even results and a pre-tax loss of $5 million in the second quarter and first six months of last year. WM Life Re has completed its run-off as all of its contracts matured as of June 30, 2016.
In June 2016, White Mountains wrote down its investment in Star & Shield surplus notes, which reduced book value per share by $4. White Mountains consolidates the issuer of the surplus notes, Star & Shield Insurance Exchange, in its GAAP financial statements. As a result, the write down is eliminated in pre-tax income. However, the write down resulted in a $20 million decrease to White Mountains’s book value and a corresponding increase to non-controlling interest equity.

Share Repurchases
For the second quarter of 2016, White Mountains repurchased and retired 463,276 of its common shares for $375 million at an average share price of $808.76, or approximately 103% of White Mountains’s June 30, 2016 adjusted book value per share. The average share price paid was approximately 101% of White Mountains’s June 30, 2016 adjusted book value per share including the estimated gain from the sale of Tranzact.
For the first six months of 2016, White Mountains repurchased and retired 691,964 of its common shares for $547 million at an average share price of $791.11, or approximately 101% of White Mountains’s June 30, 2016 adjusted book value per share. The average share price paid was approximately 99% of White Mountains’s June 30, 2016 adjusted book value per share including the estimated gain from the sale of Tranzact. Year-to-date through July 31, White Mountains has repurchased 724,947 common shares for a total of $574 million. White Mountains had 4.931 million shares outstanding at July 31, 2016.
Investment Activities
The GAAP total return on invested assets was 0.8% for the second quarter of 2016, which included 0.1% of currency losses, and 2.4% for the first six months of 2016, which included 0.2% of currency gains. This compared to a return of 0.4% for the second quarter of 2015, which included 0.6% of currency gains, and 0.3% for the first six months of 2015, which included 0.4% of currency losses.
Reid Campbell, President of White Mountains Advisors, said, “The total portfolio was up 0.8% for the quarter, as returns were boosted by a decline in interest rates in the wake of the Brexit vote on June 23rd. The fixed income portfolio returned 0.8% for the quarter which was behind the longer duration Barclays Intermediate Aggregate Index given our short duration positioning. Fixed income duration remained relatively constant during the quarter at approximately 1.9 years. The risk asset portfolio returned 1.1% for the quarter, a mixed result and behind the S&P 500 Index. Breaking this down, our portfolio of common stocks and ETFs returned -0.7% due to a down quarter in both of our separate equity accounts managed by third party advisers. The alternative asset portfolio returned 3.9%, principally driven by a favorable mark-to-market adjustment to the OneBeacon runoff surplus notes.”
Campbell continued, “Reflecting the impact of the Symetra and Sirius Group sales, risk assets have dropped from 23% of the total portfolio at the beginning of the year to 13% at the end of the second quarter. We are carefully evaluating opportunities for new risk asset investments. With the sale of Sirius Group, net foreign currency exposure has dropped to just under $100 million and primarily reflects the exposures embedded in our foreign equity investments managed by Silchester.”

Regulation G
This earnings release includes two non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled to their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is derived by expanding the calculation of GAAP book value per share to exclude equity in net unrealized gains (losses) from Symetra’s fixed maturity portfolio, net of applicable taxes, for periods that White Mountains accounted for its investment in Symetra under the equity method. White Mountains accounted for its investment in Symetra under the equity method until November 5, 2015, when it changed its accounting to fair value. Adjusted book value per share includes the dilutive effects of outstanding non-qualified options. In addition, the number of common shares outstanding used in the calculation of adjusted book value per White Mountains's common share is adjusted to exclude unearned restricted common shares, the compensation cost of which, at the date of calculation, has yet to be amortized. The reconciliation of adjusted book value per share to GAAP book value per share is included on
page 8.
Adjusted comprehensive income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure that, for periods that White Mountains accounted for its investment in Symetra under the equity method, excludes the change in equity in net unrealized gains (losses) from Symetra’s fixed maturity portfolio, net of applicable taxes, from comprehensive income (loss) attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders. The reconciliation of adjusted comprehensive income (loss) to GAAP comprehensive income (loss) attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders is included on page 9.

These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by White Mountains in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors believed to be appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to its expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, including:
• | the risks that are described from time to time in White Mountains’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to White Mountains’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 filed February 29, 2016; |

• | an economic downturn or other economic conditions adversely affecting its financial position; |
• | recorded loss reserves subsequently proving to have been inadequate; |
• | actions taken by ratings agencies from time to time, such as financial strength or credit ratings downgrades or placing ratings on negative watch; and |
• | other factors, most of which are beyond White Mountains’s control. |
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this earnings release are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by White Mountains will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, White Mountains or its business or operations.
