WHITE MOUNTAINS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
HAMILTON, Bermuda, Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. (NYSE: WTM) reported book value per share of $1,439 and adjusted book value per share of $1,471 as of September 30, 2022. Book value per share and adjusted book value per share both increased 28% in the third quarter of 2022. Book value per share and adjusted book value per share increased 23% and 24% in the first nine months of 2022, including dividends. The increase in book value per share and adjusted book value per share was driven primarily by the net gain from the sale of NSM.
Manning Rountree, CEO, commented, "ABVPS was up 28% in the quarter. The main driver was the gain on our sale of NSM, which closed on August 1 and added roughly $300 to ABVPS. Aside from this, ABVPS was up slightly driven primarily by good operating results at our businesses, partially offset by mark-to-market losses in our fixed income portfolio and the decline in MediaAlpha's share price. BAM produced record levels of premiums. Ark produced an 87% combined ratio, despite significant catastrophe activity, while growing premiums 33% year-over-year. The fair value of Kudu's existing participation contracts increased 12% in the quarter, reflecting announced sale transactions and good portfolio performance in a volatile investment environment. Kudu grew adjusted EBITDA year-over-year and closed two new transactions. During the quarter, we repurchased a little over $500 million of shares, including the results of our self-tender offer. Undeployed capital now stands at roughly $1.1 billion."
Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to common shareholders was $890 million and $748 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to $(373) million and $(308) million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. Results in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 were driven primarily by the net gain from the sale of NSM of $876 million, which includes the impact of compensation and other costs recorded in Other Operations. Results in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 also included $19 million and $113 million of unrealized investment losses from White Mountains's investment in MediaAlpha compared to $397 million and $326 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021.
HG Global/BAMBAM's gross written premiums and member surplus contributions (MSC) collected were $46 million and $109 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to $28 million and $84 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. BAM insured municipal bonds with par value of $4.1 billion and $13.5 billion in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to $4.0 billion and $12.6 billion in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. Total pricing was 110 and 81 basis points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to 69 and 66 basis points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. BAM's total claims paying resources were $1,260 million at September 30, 2022 compared to $1,192 million at December 31, 2021 and $1,181 million at September 30, 2021.
Seán McCarthy, CEO of BAM, said, "BAM posted good results for par insured and premiums during the third quarter. Demand for insured bonds remained strong as investors focused on liquidity and quality ratings in response to volatile market conditions. That consistent demand, and the higher rate environment, helped improve pricing over the prior year."
HG Global reported pre-tax income (loss) of $(12) million and $(35) million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to $7 million and $16 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. The decrease in HG Global's pre-tax income (loss) in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 was driven primarily by net unrealized investment losses on the HG Global fixed income portfolio.
White Mountains reported pre-tax loss related to BAM of $32 million and $98 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to $15 million and $47 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. The increase in pre-tax loss related to BAM in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2021 was driven primarily by net unrealized investment losses on the BAM fixed income portfolio.
BAM is a mutual insurance company that is owned by its members. BAM's results are consolidated into White Mountains's GAAP financial statements and attributed to non-controlling interests.
ArkArk's GAAP combined ratio was 87% and 90% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to 92% and 95% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. Ark's adjusted combined ratio, which adds back amounts attributable to third-party capital providers, was 86% and 90% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to 89% and 93% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021.

Ark's pre-tax loss for the first nine months of 2021 also included $25 million of transaction expenses related to White Mountains's transaction with Ark.
Ian Beaton, CEO of Ark, said, "Ark had a good third quarter notwithstanding global catastrophe activity. The adjusted combined ratio was 86% in the quarter. This included $74 million of catastrophe losses, including the estimated impact of Hurricane Ian, and $13 million of favorable prior year development, principally in property lines. Gross written premiums were $216 million in the quarter and $1.25 billion year-to-date, up 33% and 40%, respectively, from 2021 levels. Risk-adjusted rate change is up 9% year-to-date. Market conditions remain attractive, and we continue to see upward pressure on rates in many of the classes of business we underwrite."

Trailing 12 month revenues from participation contracts increased 10% quarter over quarter to $59 million, while adjusted EBITDA increased 10% quarter over quarter to $47 million. Annualized revenues finished the quarter at $66 million while annualized adjusted EBITDA reached $53 million. We were pleased to close two investments during the quarter: GenTrust, an independent RIA, and Escalate Capital Partners, a private credit and opportunistic growth equity manager. We continue to identify specialized high-quality asset and wealth managers worldwide and expect to make additional investments this year."

The equity portfolio, excluding MediaAlpha, returned 2.8%, ahead of the S&P 500 return of -4.9%, driven primarily by gains from Kudu's participation contracts."

Regulation G
This earnings release includes non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled from their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
- Adjusted book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is derived by adjusting (i) the GAAP book value per share numerator and (ii) the common shares outstanding denominator, as described below.
The GAAP book value per share numerator is adjusted (i) to include a discount for the time value of money arising from the modeled timing of cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM surplus notes and (ii) to add back the unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, at HG Global.
Under GAAP, White Mountains is required to carry the BAM surplus notes, including accrued interest, at nominal value with no consideration for time value of money. Based on a debt service model that forecasts operating results for BAM through maturity of the surplus notes, the present value of the BAM surplus notes, including accrued interest and using an 8% discount rate, was estimated to be $114 million, $120 million, $130 million and $132 million less than the nominal GAAP carrying values as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively.
The value of HG Global's unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, was $172 million, $164 million, $159 million and $154 million as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively.
White Mountains believes these adjustments are useful to management and investors in analyzing the intrinsic value of HG Global, including the value of the BAM surplus notes and the value of the in-force business at HG Re, HG Global's reinsurance subsidiary.
The denominator used in the calculation of adjusted book value per share equals the number of common shares outstanding adjusted to exclude unearned restricted common shares, the compensation cost of which, at the date of calculation, has yet to be amortized. Restricted common shares are earned on a straight-line basis over their vesting periods. The reconciliation of GAAP book value per share to adjusted book value per share is included on page 7. - Ark's adjusted loss and loss adjustment expense ratio, adjusted insurance acquisition expense ratio, adjusted other underwriting expense ratio and adjusted combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures, which are derived by adjusting the GAAP ratios to add back the impact of whole-account quota-share reinsurance arrangements attributable to third-party capital providers for Ark's Lloyd's syndicates. The impact of these reinsurance arrangements relates to years of account prior to White Mountains's transaction with Ark. White Mountains believes these adjustments are useful to management and investors in evaluating Ark's results on a fully aligned basis (i.e., 100% of the syndicates' results). The reconciliation from the GAAP ratios to the adjusted ratios is included on page 17.
- Kudu's EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, annualized adjusted EBITDA and annualized revenue are non-GAAP financial measures.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets from GAAP net income (loss).
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those excluded from EBITDA. The adjustments relate to (i) net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on Kudu's revenue and earnings participation contracts, (ii) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and (iii) transaction expenses. A description of each adjustment follows:
- Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) - Represents net unrealized investment gains and losses recorded on Kudu's revenue and earnings participation contracts, which are recorded at fair value under GAAP, and realized investment gains and losses from participation contracts sold during the period.
- Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Kudu's management compensation that are settled with equity units in Kudu.
- Transaction expenses - Represents costs directly related to Kudu's mergers and acquisitions activity, such as external lawyer, banker, consulting and placement agent fees, which are not capitalized and are expensed under GAAP.
Annualized adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) annualizes partial year revenues related to Kudu's revenue and earnings participation contracts acquired during the previous 12-month period and (ii) removes revenues related to revenue and earnings participation contracts sold during the previous 12-month period.
Annualized revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds the adjustments for annualized adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net investment income revenue.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Kudu's performance. White Mountains also believes that annualized adjusted EBITDA is useful to management and investors in understanding the full earnings profile of Kudu's business as of the end of any 12-month period. See page 19 for the reconciliation of Kudu's GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and annualized adjusted EBITDA.
- Total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha and total equity portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the net investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) from White Mountains's investment in MediaAlpha. White Mountains believes these measures to be useful to management and investors by showing the underlying performance of White Mountains's investment portfolio and equity portfolio without regard to White Mountains's investment in MediaAlpha. The following tables present reconciliations from GAAP to the reported percentages:
Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||||||

- competitive forces, including the conduct of other insurers;

White Mountains assumes no obligation to publicly update any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
