For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our GPW increased
primarily driven by growth from new business and increased rates in
our Property and Property D&F lines of business partially
offset by a decrease in our Aviation and Aerospace line of
business.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our GPW increased
primarily driven by growth from new business and improved rates in
our Property, Property D&F and Marine lines of business,
partially offset by a decrease in our Aviation and Aerospace line
of business.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, our NPE
increased due to earnings from higher net premiums written in the
current and prior year periods.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, our policy
acquisition expense ratio increased due to changes in the mix of
business written and ceded, and commissions earned from reinsurance
partners.
Our underwriting ratio in the Specialty segment increased by
10.4 points and 5.4 points compared to the three and six month
prior year periods, respectively, driven primarily by an increase
in the loss ratio.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our loss ratio in the
Specialty segment increased by 9.5 points. For the six months ended
June 30, 2024, our loss ratio in the Specialty segment increased by
3.3 points.
The attritional loss ratio in the three months and six months
ended June 30, 2024, increased by 4.3 points and 1.3 points,
respectively, compared to the prior year periods due to a higher
level of small losses in the current year period.
The catastrophe and large losses in the three months ended June
30, 2024 were driven by events in our Property D&F line of
business, the largest of which was the catastrophic tornados in
Oklahoma and surrounding States together with other smaller
losses.
The catastrophe and large losses in the six months ended June
30, 2024 related to losses from the Baltimore Bridge collapse in
our Marine line of business, severe convective storms in the
Property D&F line of business, together with other smaller
losses in various lines of business. This compared to prior year
period catastrophe and large losses related to our Aviation and
Aerospace line of business which included losses related to the
Sudan conflict, and our Property D&F line of business where we
experienced losses from severe convective storms in the U.S.
The favorable prior year development for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by better than
expected loss emergence in the Marine and Property D&F lines of
business.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our loss ratio in the
Reinsurance segment improved by 13.7 points compared to the prior
year period, driven by favorable prior year development and an
improvement in the catastrophe and large loss ratio, partially
offset by an increase in the attritional loss ratio.
The loss ratio improved by 31.7 points for the six months ended
June 30, 2024. This was due to improvements in our attritional and
catastrophe and large loss ratios.
The attritional loss ratio in the three months ended June 30,
2024 increased by 32.7 points compared to the prior year period,
which was particularly benign in terms of attritional losses.
The attritional loss ratio in the six months ended June 30, 2024
improved by 22.7 points due to favorable experience compared to the
prior year period which included storm losses in our Property
Reinsurance line of business.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, 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.
The Fidelis Partnership Commissions
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, The Fidelis
Partnership commissions were $75.0 million and $151.7 million,
respectively, or 15.0% and 15.3% of the combined ratio,
respectively, (2023: $52.6 million and $76.8 million or 12.3% and
9.4% of the combined ratio) and comprise ceding and profit
commissions as part of the Framework Agreement effective from
January 1, 2023. The increase was due to the full impact of earning
such commissions since January 1, 2023 together with the increase
in net premiums earned. The Fidelis Partnership manages
origination, underwriting, underwriting administration, outwards
reinsurance and claims handling under delegated authority
agreements with the Group.

General and Administrative Expenses
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, general and
administrative expenses were $24.4 million and $48.0 million,
respectively, or 4.9% and 4.9% of the combined ratio, respectively
(2023: $18.6 million and $35.2 million or 4.3% and 4.3% of the
combined ratio). The increase was driven primarily by employment
costs relating to increased head count to support the growth of the
business.

Net Realized and Unrealized Investment Gains/(Losses)
The net realized and unrealized investment losses in the three
and six months ended June 30, 2024 resulted primarily from realized
losses on the sale of $220.4 million and $429.0 million,
respectively, of fixed maturity securities with an average yield of
1.6% and 1.2%, respectively, the proceeds of which were reinvested
at higher yields.
Net Investment Income
The increase in our net investment income in the three and six
months ended June 30, 2024 was due to the increase in investible
assets and a higher yield achieved on the fixed income portfolio
and cash balances. During the three and six months ended June 30,
2024, we purchased $677.7 million and $1.1 billion, respectively,
of fixed maturity securities at an average yield of 5.2% and 5.1%,
respectively.

About Fidelis Insurance Group
Fidelis Insurance Group is a global specialty insurer,
leveraging strategic partnerships to offer innovative and tailored
insurance solutions.
We have a highly diversified portfolio focused on three
segments: Specialty, Bespoke, and Reinsurance, which we believe
allows us to take advantage of the opportunities presented by
evolving (re)insurance markets, proactively shift our business mix
across market cycles, and produce superior underwriting
returns.
Headquartered in Bermuda, with worldwide offices including
Ireland and the UK, Fidelis Insurance Group operating companies
have a financial strength rating of A from AM Best, A- from S&P
and A3 from Moody’s. For additional information about Fidelis
Insurance, our people, and our products please visit our website at
www.FidelisInsurance.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Press Release includes, and the related conference call
will include, certain financial measures that are not calculated in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) including Operating net income, Operating EPS,
Operating ROE and Operating ROAE, attritional loss ratio and
catastrophe and large loss ratio, and therefore are non-U.S. GAAP
financial measures. Reconciliations of such measures to the most
comparable U.S. GAAP figures are included in the attached financial
information in accordance with Regulation G.
RPI Measure
Renewal price index (“RPI”) is a measure that Fidelis has used
to assess an approximate index of rate increases on a particular
set of contracts, using the base of 100% for the rates for the
relevant prior year. Although management considers RPI to be an
appropriate statistical measure, it is not a financial measure that
directly relates to the Fidelis consolidated financial results.
Management’s calculation of RPI involves a degree of judgment in
relation to comparability of contracts and the relative impacts of
changes in price, exposure, retention levels, as well as any other
changing terms and conditions on the RPI calculation. Consideration
is given to potential renewals of a comparable nature so it does
not reflect every contract in Fidelis’ portfolio. The future
profitability and performance of a portfolio of contracts expressed
within the RPI is dependent upon many factors besides the trends in
premium rates, including policy terms, conditions and wording.
Safe Harbor Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release (including the documents referenced herein,
such as our financial results for the second quarter ended June 30,
2024) and the related post on LinkedIn contains, and our officers
and representatives may from time to time make (including on our
related conference call), “forward-looking statements" which
include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or
current facts and which may concern our strategy, plans,
projections or intentions and are made pursuant to the safe harbor
provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such
as: “continue,” “grow,” “opportunity,” “create,” “anticipate,”
“intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “believe,” “project,” “estimate,”
“target,” “expect,” “evolve,” “achieve,” “remain,” “proactive,”
“pursue,” “optimize,” “emerge,” “seek,” “build,” “looking ahead,”
“commit,” “strategy,” “predict,” “potential,” “assumption,”
“future,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will” and the
negative of these and also similar terms and phrases.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor
assurances of future performance. Instead, they are qualified by
these cautionary statements, because they are based only on our
current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future
of our business, future plans and strategies, projections,
anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future
conditions, but are subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or
are subject to change. Our actual results and financial condition
may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking
statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these
forward-looking statements.
Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others,
statements we make in relation to: discussion relating to net
income and net income per share; expected operating results, such
as revenue growth and earnings; our expectations regarding our
strategy and the performance of our business; information regarding
our estimates for catastrophes and other loss events; our liquidity
and capital resources; and expectations of the effect on our
financial condition of claims, litigation, environmental costs,
contingent liabilities and governmental and regulatory
investigations and proceedings.
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
ongoing trend of premium rate hardening and factors likely to drive
continued rate hardening; expected growth across our portfolio; the
availability of outwards reinsurance and capital resources as
required; the development and pattern of earned and written
premiums impacting embedded premium value; changes in accounting
principles or the application thereof; the level of underwriting
leverage; the level and timing of catastrophe and other losses and
related reserves on the business we underwrite; the performance of
our investment portfolios; our strategic relationship with The
Fidelis Partnership; the maintenance of financial strength ratings;
the impact of global geopolitical and economic uncertainties
impacting the lines of business we write; the impact of tax reform
and insurance regulation in the jurisdictions where our businesses
are located; and those risks, uncertainties and other factors
disclosed under the section titled ‘Risk Factors’ in Fidelis
Insurance Holdings Limited’s Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March
15, 2024 (which such section is incorporated herein by reference),
as well as subsequent filings with the SEC available electronically
at www.sec.gov.
Any forward-looking statements, expectations, beliefs and
projections made by us in this release and on our related
conference call speak only as of the date on which they are made
and are expressed in good faith and our management believes that
there is reasonable basis for them, based only on information
currently available to us. However, there can be no assurance that
management’s expectations, beliefs, and projections will be
achieved and actual results may vary materially from what is
expressed or indicated by the forward-looking statements.
Furthermore, our past performance, and that of our management team
and of The Fidelis Partnership, should not be construed as a
guarantee of future performance. We undertake no obligation to
publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or
oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of
new information, future developments or otherwise.

FIDELIS INSURANCE HOLDINGS LIMITED
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION
(UNAUDITED)
Operating net income: 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 excluding net
gain on distribution of The Fidelis Partnership, net realized and
unrealized investment gains/(losses), net foreign exchange
gains/(losses), and corporate and other expenses which include
warrant costs, reorganization expenses, any non-recurring income
and expenses, and the income tax effect on these items.
Return on average common equity (“ROAE”): represents net
income divided by average common shareholders’ equity.
Operating return on opening common equity (“Operating
ROE”): is a non-U.S. GAAP measure that represents a meaningful
comparison between periods of our financial performance expressed
as a percentage and is calculated as operating net income divided
by adjusted opening common shareholders’ equity.
Operating return on average common equity (“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 operating net income
divided by adjusted average common shareholders’ equity.
Operating net income per diluted 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 Fidelis Insurance Group’s financial information
to more easily analyze Fidelis Insurance Group’s results in a
manner similar to how management analyzes Fidelis Insurance Group’s
underlying business performance. It is calculated by dividing
operating net income by the weighted average diluted Common Shares
outstanding.
The table below sets out the calculation of the adjusted common
shareholders’ equity, operating net income, ROAE, Operating ROE,
