Scott Egan, Chief Executive Officer, said: “We began 2026 with continued strong momentum. Our first quarter results provide further evidence of our consistent delivery with a Core combined ratio of 88.9%. With an operating return on equity of 15.3%, we are once again operating at the top end of our 12-15% across the cycle target range.

“We believe our strategy and nimbleness positions us well to grow where we see attractive returns, despite market conditions softening in places. During the quarter we have grown our Insurance & Services premium by 8% versus prior year, while being disciplined in the Reinsurance market where we reduced premiums by 10%. We continue to be positive about growth opportunities for the remainder of 2026 in Insurance and will maintain our disciplined approach in Reinsurance.

“We were pleased by the ratings upgrades from S&P, AM Best and Fitch in the last three months, with each recognizing our continued progress and financial strength.

“With a strong balance sheet, clear underwriting strategy, a lower volatility portfolio, and three ratings upgrades, we believe we are positioned well to deliver sustained strong performance.”

First Quarter 2026 Summary

Consolidated underwriting income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $77.7 million compared to $54.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by premium growth and a decrease in catastrophe losses of $62.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in favorable prior year development of $16.3 million.

Reportable Segments

The determination of our reportable segments is based on the manner in which management monitors the performance of our operations, which consist of two reportable segments - Insurance & Services and Reinsurance. Collectively, the sum of our two segments, Insurance & Services and Reinsurance, constitute our “Core” results. Core underwriting income, Core net services income, Core income and Core combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. See reconciliations in “Segment Reporting.” We believe it is useful to review Core results as it better reflects how management views the business and reflects our decision to exit the run off business. The sum of Core results and Corporate results are equal to the consolidated results of operations.

Core Premium Volume

Gross written premium increased by $13.9 million, or 1.4%, to $1,003.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $989.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net written premium decreased by $55.2 million, or 7.3%, to $696.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $752.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net earned premium increased by $12.5 million, or 2.0%, to $638.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $625.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increases in gross written premium and net earned premium were driven by our Insurance & Services segment, including growth in Accident & Health (“A&H”), General Liability, and Surety, partially offset by decreases in our Reinsurance segment, primarily in Property Catastrophe, Bermuda and London Specialty, and New York Casualty. The decrease in net written premium was primarily driven by the decreases in our Reinsurance segment and the ceded premium related to the inception of an aggregate reinsurance program in the current quarter, as well as a large one-time assumed reinsurance contract with a single MGA in our Surety business in the first quarter of 2025.

Core Underwriting Results

Core results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 included income of $79.3 million compared to $47.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consists of underwriting income of $70.9 million (88.9% combined ratio) and net services income of $8.4 million, compared to underwriting income of $28.5 million (95.4% combined ratio) and net services income of $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The improvement in underwriting income was primarily driven by decreased catastrophe losses and a lower attritional loss ratio, partially offset by a decrease in favorable prior year development and higher expense ratios.

Catastrophe losses were minimal for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $67.9 million, or 10.9 percentage points on the combined ratio, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily from the California wildfires. Losses incurred included $32.2 million of favorable prior year loss reserve development for the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily driven by favorable development in Credit, mainly from better than expected loss experience, as well as favorable development in A&H, due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, compared to $34.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily driven by favorable development in Property, mainly from reserve releases relating to prior year’s catastrophe events, as well as favorable development in A&H, due to lower than expected reported attritional losses. The increased acquisition cost ratio primarily resulted from profit commission accruals related to prior year programs, and the increased other underwriting expense ratio is largely driven by timing items.

The decrease in net services income was due to the deconsolidation of Armada, partially offset by growth in IMG and the acquisition of Assist America. Service margin, which is calculated as Net service fee income as a percentage of services revenues, increased to 14.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 13.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, when adjusted to exclude Armada, driven by the acquisition of Assist America.

Insurance & Services Segment

Insurance & Services gross written premium were $684.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $49.5 million, or 7.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by growth in A&H, General Liability, and Surety.

Insurance & Services generated income of $38.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $39.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consists of underwriting income of $30.1 million (92.0% combined ratio) and net services income of $8.4 million, compared to underwriting income of $20.1 million (94.0% combined ratio) and net services income of $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The improvement in underwriting income was primarily driven by a lower attritional loss ratio and increased favorable prior year loss reserve development, partially offset by increased expense ratios. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, favorable prior year loss reserve development was $15.1 million compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by increases in A&H due to lower than expected reported attritional losses. The increased acquisition cost ratio primarily resulted from profit commission accruals related to prior year programs, and the increased other underwriting expense ratio is largely driven by timing items. The decrease in net services income was due to the deconsolidation of Armada, partially offset by growth in IMG and the acquisition of Assist America.

Reinsurance Segment

Reinsurance gross written premium were $319.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $35.6 million, or 10.0%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by decreases in Property Catastrophe, Bermuda and London Specialty, and New York Casualty.

Reinsurance generated underwriting income of $40.8 million (84.2% combined ratio) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $8.4 million (97.1% combined ratio) for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The improvement in net underwriting results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by a decrease in catastrophe losses of $57.7 million and a lower attritional loss ratio, partially offset by a decrease in favorable prior year loss reserve development of $14.7 million.

Investments

Net investment income decreased to $66.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $71.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 driven by lower yields in the current period. Net investment gains (losses) increased to $11.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $(0.3) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily due to gains on private equity funds classified in Other long-term investments.

SIRIUSPOINT LTD.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS & OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Core Results

Collectively, the sum of the Company's two segments, Insurance & Services and Reinsurance, constitute "Core" results. Core underwriting income, Core net services income, Core income and Core combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to review Core results as it better reflects how management views the business and reflects our decision to exit the run off business. The sum of Core results and Corporate results are equal to the consolidated results of operations.

Core underwriting income - calculated by subtracting loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred, net, acquisition costs, net, and other underwriting expenses from net premiums earned.

Core net services income - consists of services revenues which include commissions, brokerage and fee income related to consolidated MGAs, and other revenues, as well as services expenses which include direct expenses related to consolidated MGAs and services noncontrolling income which represent minority ownership interests in consolidated MGAs. Net services income is a key indicator of the profitability of the Company's services provided.

Core income - consists of two components, core underwriting income and core net services income. Core income is a key measure of our segment performance.

Core combined ratio - calculated by dividing the sum of Core loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred, net, acquisition costs, net and other underwriting expenses by Core net premiums earned. Accident year loss ratio and accident year combined ratio are calculated by excluding prior year loss reserve development to present the impact of current accident year net loss and loss adjustment expenses on the Core loss ratio and Core combined ratio, respectively. Attritional loss ratio excludes catastrophe losses from the accident year loss ratio as they are not predictable as to timing and amount. These ratios are useful indicators of our underwriting profitability.

Book Value Per Diluted Common Share Metrics

Book value per diluted common share excluding AOCI and tangible book value per diluted common share, as presented, are non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure is book value per diluted common share. Management believes it is useful to exclude AOCI because it may fluctuate significantly between periods based on movements in interest and currency rates. Tangible book value per diluted common share excludes goodwill and intangible assets. Management believes that effects of goodwill and intangible assets are not indicative of underlying underwriting results or trends and make book value comparisons to less acquisitive peer companies less meaningful. Tangible book value per diluted common share is useful because it provides a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns.

The following table sets forth the computation of book value per common share, book value per diluted common share, book value per diluted common share excluding AOCI, and tangible book value per diluted common share as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Operating and Core Operating Metrics

Operating net income, Core Operating net income, Operating earnings per share and Core Operating earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are net income and diluted earnings per share. Operating net income excludes items which we believe are not indicative of the operations of our operating businesses, including realized and unrealized gains (losses) on strategic and other investments and liability-classified capital instruments, non-recurring costs associated with acquisitions or sales of subsidiaries, income (expense) related to loss portfolio transfers, deferred tax assets attributable to the enactment of the Bermuda corporate income tax, development on COVID-19 reserves resulting from the COVID-19 reserve study performed concurrently with the settlement of the Series A Preference shares in the third quarter of 2024, and foreign exchange gains (losses). Core Operating net income also excludes the Corporate (run off) business. We believe it is useful to review Operating net income and Core Operating net income as it better reflects how we view the business, as well as provides investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future earnings and profitability that are complementary to GAAP metrics. Operating ROE is calculated by dividing annualized Operating net income for the period by average common shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, and after adjusting for the above noted items to arrive at Operating net income. Core Operating ROE also excludes the results of the Corporate (run off) business.

The following table sets forth the computation of Operating net income, Core Operating net income, Operating earnings per share and Core Operating earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

    2026       2025
