For the three months ended June 30, 2026, our GPW increased primarily driven by growth from our network of expanded underwriting partners in our Asset Backed Finance & Portfolio Credit and Property lines of business. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, our GPW increased primarily driven by growth from our network of expanded underwriting partners, in several lines of business, partially offset by a non-renewal in our Cyber line of business that did not meet our underwriting criteria and rating hurdles.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, net premiums earned (“NPE”) increased due to earnings from higher net premiums written in the current and prior year periods.

Our policy acquisition expense ratio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, remained consistent with the prior year periods.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our loss ratio in the Insurance segment improved by 5.1 points and 7.6 points, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

The attritional loss ratio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, increased by 5.6 points and 4.6 points, respectively, compared to the prior year periods due to a higher level of small losses in the current year periods.

The catastrophe and large losses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were primarily from losses related to the conflict in the Middle East, the gas plant explosion at the Ras Laffan facility in Qatar, as well as other loss events in our Property and Marine lines of business. This compared to the prior period catastrophe and large losses that were primarily attributable to our Aviation & Aerospace line of business, related to Air India, and our Property line of business, related to two loss events. The catastrophe and large losses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were primarily attributable to losses related to the conflict in the Middle East, the gas plant explosion at the Ras Laffan facility in Qatar, as well as loss events in various lines of business including Other Insurance, Property and Marine. This compared to the prior period catastrophe and large losses that were primarily attributable to the California wildfires in our Property line of business, together with other losses in our Other Insurance, Aviation & Aerospace, and Property lines of business.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, favorable prior year development was primarily driven by better than expected loss emergence in multiple lines of business. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, favorable prior year development was primarily driven by better than expected loss emergence in multiple lines of business, partially offset by increased loss estimates related to the Baltimore Bridge collapse within our Marine line of business as well as increases in prior year property D&F losses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, GPW increased from targeted deployment into areas where we continue to see attractive risk-adjusted returns. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, our GPW increased primarily from targeted deployment into areas where we continue to see attractive risk-adjusted returns, partially offset by reinstatement premiums related to the California Wildfires in the prior year period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, NPE decreased driven by our business mix. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, NPE decreased due to the acceleration of earnings on contracts with exposure to the California wildfires in the prior year period.

Our policy acquisition expense ratio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, increased primarily due to business mix and changes in ceded premium and commissions earned from outwards reinsurance partners.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, our loss ratio in the Reinsurance segment improved by 19.2 points and 100.2 points, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

The attritional loss ratio for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, improved by 17.3 points and 4.9 points, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, both of which were benign in terms of attritional losses.

There were no material catastrophe and large losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The catastrophe and large losses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, were a result of an updated estimate of outwards reinsurance recoveries. The catastrophe and large losses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were attributable to the California wildfires.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, favorable prior year development was driven by positive development on catastrophe losses and benign prior year attritional experience.

Other Underwriting Expenses

We do not allocate The Fidelis Partnership commissions or general and administrative expenses by segment.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the decrease in The Fidelis Partnership commissions ratio was driven by our business mix and by the reduction of the accrued profit commission as a result of operating profit in the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the increase in The Fidelis Partnership commissions ratio was driven by our mix of business and by improved performance in the current year period compared to the prior year period.

General and Administrative Expenses

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, general and administrative expenses were $29.3 million and $58.5 million, respectively (2025: $22.3 million and $44.3 million, respectively). The increase was due to strategic investments to strengthen our talent base, enhance our infrastructure and improve our technology. Also, improved financial performance resulted in higher variable compensation accruals in the current year.

Net Investment Income

Net investment income is the interest income earned on our cash balances, available-for-sale (AFS) fixed income securities and distributions received from our fixed income funds and private credit funds, net of total investment expenses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we generated net investment income of $44.0 million and $87.7 million, respectively, at an average yield of 4.3% and 4.2%, respectively (2025: $44.6 million and $94.1 million at an average yield of 4.4% and 4.4%) Our net investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2026, remained consistent with the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the decrease was driven by lower investable assets compared to the prior year period as well as a lower yield achieved on the fixed income portfolio and cash balances.

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains/(Losses) on Other Investments

Net realized and unrealized gains on other investments is the change in net asset value (“NAV”) of our fixed income fund, hedge fund and private credit fund investments. The increase in our net investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, was driven by positive performance from our hedge fund portfolio and positive change in the NAV on our fixed income funds as interest rates moved higher in the quarter.

Net Realized and Unrealized Investment Gains/(Losses) Excluding Other Investments

Net realized and unrealized investment gains/(losses) excluding other investments includes net realized gains/(losses) on sales of fixed maturity securities, available-for-sale, and movements in our provision for current expected credit losses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the decrease resulted from movements in our provision for current expected credit losses of $(0.8) million and $(3.0) million, respectively (2025: $1.3 million and $5.3 million).

Other Items

Share Repurchases

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 2,779,812 and 14,324,667 common shares, respectively, for an aggregate of $60.1 million and $279.5 million, respectively, excluding expenses, at an average price of $21.60 and $19.51 per common share, respectively, pursuant to our share repurchase authorization.

Included in common shares repurchased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, were 1,440,000 common shares repurchased from Pine Brook Feal Intermediate, L.P. for $31.7 million in privately negotiated transactions. This resulted in a pro-rata repurchase of 157,785 common shares from The Fidelis Partnership for $3.5 million.

Included in common shares repurchased for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were 8,597,170 common shares from CVC Falcon Holdings Limited for an aggregate of $163.3 million through a privately negotiated transaction. This resulted in a pro-rata repurchase of 942,014 common shares from The Fidelis Partnership for $17.9 million.

The unutilized amount of the share repurchase authorization at June 30, 2026, was $139.1 million

Our actual results in the future could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a result of changes in assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors impacting us, many of which are outside our control, including:

  • the inherent uncertainty, volatility and unpredictability of underwriting insurance and reinsurance risks, including low-frequency, high-severity events and natural and non-natural catastrophic events;

  • macroeconomic, geopolitical and market conditions, sanctions and other global developments;

  • cyclical changes in the insurance and reinsurance industry, including premium rate movements, competitive pressures and consolidation;

  • our ability to implement our strategy, identify and execute growth opportunities and compete effectively;

  • any downgrades, potential downgrades or other negative actions by rating agencies;

  • our reliance on TFP and other third parties for underwriting, claims handling and other services, and the effectiveness of our risk management and oversight framework;

  • operational risks, including system failures, cybersecurity incidents, data protection breaches and risks associated with emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, and evolving regulatory requirements applicable thereto;

  • risks relating to our investment portfolio, including market volatility, interest rate movements, credit risk, liquidity risk and currency fluctuations;

  • the Company’s status as a foreign private issuer; and

  • the other risks, uncertainties and other factors disclosed under the section titled ‘Risk Factors’ in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 5, 2026, as well as subsequent current reports and other filings with the SEC available electronically at www.sec.gov.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in our filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements included herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to therein. The forward-looking statements contained herein are neither promises nor guarantees, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control and which could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION (UNAUDITED)

Attritional loss ratio and catastrophe and large loss ratio: the attritional loss ratio is a non-GAAP measure of the loss ratio excluding the impact of catastrophe and large losses. Management believes that the attritional loss ratio is a performance measure that is useful to investors as it excludes losses that are not as predictable as to timing and amount. The attritional loss ratio is calculated by dividing the losses and loss adjustment expenses, excluding catastrophe and large losses and prior year development, by NPE. The catastrophe and large loss ratio is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by dividing the current year catastrophe and large loss expense by NPE. The reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures is included in each segment’s summary of losses and loss adjustment expenses table.

Operating net income/(loss): is a non-GAAP financial measure of our performance which does not consider the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that may not properly reflect the ordinary activities of our business, its performance or its future outlook. This measure is calculated as net income/(loss) excluding net realized and unrealized investment gains, net foreign exchange gains/(losses), corporate and other expenses, and the income tax effect on these items.

Annualized return on average common equity (“Annualized ROAE”): represents annualized net income/(loss) divided by average common shareholders’ equity.

Annualized operating return on average common equity (“Annualized Operating ROAE”): is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents a meaningful comparison between periods of our financial performance expressed as a percentage and is calculated as annualized operating net income/(loss) divided by average common shareholders’ equity.

Operating earnings per share (“Operating EPS”): is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents a valuable measure of profitability and enables investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of our financial information to more easily analyze our results in a manner similar to how management analyzes its underlying business performance. It is calculated by dividing operating net income/(loss) by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.

The table below sets out the calculation of our Operating net income/(loss), Annualized ROAE, Annualized Operating ROAE and Operating EPS, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and 2025.
