Recent Developments

Sale and Disposal of Agency Business

On August 30, 2024 the Company completed the sale of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Conifer Insurance Services ("CIS") to BSU Leaf Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to the Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the "CIS Agreement"), by and among the Company, Buyer and Buyer's parent (the "CIS Sale"). CIS comprised the Company’s managing general agency (“MGA”) business. CIS also represented almost all of the Wholesale Agency segment. CIS and the related Wholesale Agency segment are now reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company sold CIS in order to generate liquidity to pay down debt and provide capital to the Insurance Company Subsidiaries.

The CIS Sale has had and will continue to have a significant negative impact on revenues for the Company going forward. With the previously mentioned strategic shift away from underwriting revenues, the Company was relying on the growth of commission revenue to replace the lost revenue from underwriting. Now that the Wholesale Agency segment has been sold, the Company will need to rely entirely on underwriting revenues. These revenues have continued to decline in the past year. For example, gross written premiums were $51.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $58.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

In connection with the CIS Sale, 68 of the Company’s 77 employees were transferred to the Buyer, including Nicholas Petcoff, the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer, as well as all of the underwriting, claims and IT teams, and a portion of the finance staff and other operating staff. As part of the completion of the CIS Sale, Mr. Petcoff resigned from his role as Chief Executive Officer and as a director on August 30, 2024. Concurrently, Brian Roney, President of the Company, was appointed as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer. The Company entered into a transition services agreement with the buyer to allow both parties to share resources for a certain period of time, generally less than twelve months, in order to effectuate an orderly separation of the internal systems and operations. The net cost to the Company was $104,000 in 2024 and $118,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The transition services agreement is substantially complete.

The initial purchase price of CIS was $45.0 million, subject to purchase price adjustments. In addition, during the three years ending on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company is eligible under the CIS Agreement to receive up to three contingent payments based on performance thresholds of the gross revenue earned by CIS in the applicable quarter, with the aggregate amount of contingent consideration capped at $25.0 million. Consideration paid in cash to the Company was

$46.6 million on August 30, 2024, which was comprised of the $45.0 million initial purchase price, plus $1.6 million of cash in CIS in excess of the working capital deficiency (as defined in the CIS Agreement).

The contingent consideration payments, in order of achievability are $5.0 million, $10.0 million and $10.0 million. The contingent consideration included in the gain on sale was calculated based on the fair value of the three contingent payments as of August 30, 2024, in accordance with ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement. The first contingent payment was earned as of September 30, 2024, and received in December 2024. The second contingent payment was earned and received during the second quarter of 2025. The third contingent payment, equaling $10.0 million, is expected to be paid by September 2026, but is still subject to uncertainty. The Company determined the fair value of the third contingent payment to be $6.3 million, as of September 30, 2025. As fair value estimates change over time, subsequent measurement adjustments will be reflected in income or loss in the period of change. See Note 3 ~ Fair Value Measurements for further details.

There was significant judgment in deriving the fair value of the final $10.0 million contingent payment, including estimating the extent of time it will take to achieve the earnout, the credit quality of the buyer and, most importantly, the risk that the contingent payment may not be achieved at all. There is greater than an insignificant chance that we do not receive the final contingent payment. There are no provisions allowing for a partial payment of the earnout.

Sale of SSU

Prior to August 30, 2024 the Company owned 50% of SSU and the other 50% of SSU was owned by Andrew Petcoff, the son of James Petcoff, the Company’s former Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer and beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company’s common stock. Andrew Petcoff purchased 50% of SSU from the Company on December 31, 2022, for $1,000.

On August 30, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its 50% ownership interest in SSU to an entity owned by Andrew Petcoff. Pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 30, 2024 (the “SSU Agreement”) among Sycamore Financial Group, LLC, Andrew Petcoff and VSRM Insurance Agency, Inc., the aggregate purchase price was $6.5 million with $3.0 million paid in cash to the Company at the time of the closing and the remaining $3.5 million was paid to the Company during the fourth quarter of 2024. A gain of $6.5 million was recognized on the sale of SSU.

As part of the sale, the Company entered into a new program administration agreement with SSU, which requires SSU to provide underwriting and systems support to the homeowners programs that they produce. Separately, the Company entered into a claims administration agreement with CIS, now owned by BSU Leaf Holdings LLC., to handle all homeowners claims going forward.

Other Impacts of Recent Developments

With the completion of the disposal of the agency business, we have just two agency relationships with CIS and SSU. CIS has control over almost all of our commercial lines premium volume and has removed all of the remaining commercial lines business to other insurers. SSU has control of our remaining homeowners book of business and could move that business to other insurers as well. This greatly amplifies our concentration of risk relative to our marketing and distribution network. Refer to the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 28, 2025 for further details on the Company's structure.

Our staff is now only twelve people. We are relying heavily upon the CIS and SSU teams to handle underwriting, claims, and information technology services. Much of this is managed either through program administration agreements with CIS and SSU or a claims administration agreement with CIS. The policy management system was conveyed with CIS, which we can continue to use for our existing business, but may not be available for any new programs we may consider. CIS and SSU also handle all billing and collections. We no longer have the capacity to operate a direct bill process.

Redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock and payoff of Senior Secured Debt

On August 30, 2024 with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of CIS, the Company paid off all $9.3 million of its privately placed 12.5% Senior Secured Notes which were outstanding at August 30, 2024 (the "Senior Secured Notes"), and redeemed all of the $6.0 million of its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. The Company incurred a redemption premium of $397,000 from the Series A Preferred Stock, and recorded the premium as additional dividends paid on the Series A Preferred Stock. See Note 7 ~ Debt and Note 9 ~ Shareholders Equity of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

A.M. Best and Kroll

On March 25, 2024, Kroll downgraded the financial strength ratings of TIC and WPIC. Kroll had given TIC an insurance financial strength rating of BB- with a negative outlook. Kroll had given WPIC an insurance financial strength rating of B with a negative outlook. A BB- and a B rating indicates that the insurer's financial condition is low quality. Concurrently, the Company withdrew its participation in the rating process, and is no longer rated by Kroll.

On March 14, 2024, A.M. Best downgraded the financial strength ratings of TIC and WPIC to C. A rating of C means A.M. Best considers both companies to have a "weak" ability to meet ongoing financial obligations. Concurrently, the Company withdrew its participation in the rating process, and is no longer rated by A.M. Best.

Business Overview

We are an insurance holding company that markets and services our product offerings through specialty commercial and specialty personal insurance business lines. Currently, we are authorized to write insurance as an excess and surplus lines carrier in 44 states, including the District of Columbia. We are licensed to write insurance as an admitted carrier in 42 states, including the District of Columbia. As of September 30, 2025, we offer insurance products primarily in Texas, Illinois and Indiana, for homeowners lines and Nevada and Michigan for other lines. However, we expect the Nevada and Michigan business to go into run-off in the near term.

Our revenues are primarily derived from premiums earned from our insurance operations. We also generate other revenues through investment income.

Our expenses consist primarily of losses and loss adjustment expenses, agents’ commissions, and other underwriting and administrative expenses. Historically, we have organized our operations in three insurance businesses: commercial insurance lines, personal lines, and agency business prior to the CIS Sale. Together, the commercial and personal lines refer to “underwriting” operations that take insurance risk, and the agency business refers to non-risk insurance business.

Through our commercial insurance lines, we historically offered coverage for both commercial property and commercial liability. We also offered coverage for commercial automobiles and workers’ compensation. Our insurance policies are sold to targeted small and mid-sized businesses on a single or multiple-coverage basis. We expect minimal commercial lines business going forward.

Through our personal insurance lines, we offer homeowners insurance and dwelling fire insurance products to individuals in several states. Our specialty homeowners insurance product line is primarily comprised of low-value dwelling insurance tailored for owners of lower valued homes, which we offer in Illinois, Indiana and Texas.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In certain circumstances, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. We evaluate these estimates and assumptions periodically on an on-going basis based on a variety of factors. There can be no assurance, however, that actual results will not be materially different than our estimates and assumptions, and that reported results of operations will not be affected by accounting adjustments needed to reflect changes in these estimates and assumptions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimating methodologies, which are disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025.

Executive Overview

The Company reported $14.6 million of gross written premiums in the third quarter of 2025, representing a 2.9% decrease as compared to the same period in 2024. Our personal lines gross written premiums increased by $91,000, or 0.8%, to $11.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $11.1 million for the same period in 2024. Commercial lines gross written premiums decreased by $535,000, or 13.3%, to $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $4.0 million for the same period in 2024.

The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $4.0 million, or $0.32 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $6.9 million, or $0.60 per share for the same period in 2024.

The Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $1.4 million, or $0.11 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $9.0 million, or $0.81 per share for the same period in 2024.

The Company reported a net loss allocable to common shareholders of $4.0 million, or $0.32 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income allocable to common shareholders of $52.8 million, or $4.32 per share for the same period in 2024.

The Company reported a net loss allocable to common shareholders of $1.4 million, or $0.11 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income allocable to common shareholders of $48.9 million, or $4.00 per share for the same period in 2024.

Adjusted operating income or loss per share is a non-GAAP measure that represents net income or loss excluding net realized investment gains or losses, change in fair value of equity securities, change in fair value of contingent considerations, change in contingent consideration bonus expense and net income or loss from discontinued operations. Adjusted operating loss was $2.7 million, or $0.22 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to an adjusted operating loss of $6.9 million, or $0.56 per share for the same period in 2024.

Adjusted operating loss was $8.5 million, or $0.69 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to an adjusted operating loss of $8.7 million or $0.71 per share for the same period in 2024.

Our underwriting combined ratio was 141.2% and 143.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Our underwriting combined ratio was 133.6% and 120.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Premiums

Premiums are earned ratably over the term of the policy, whereas written premiums are reflected on the effective date of the policy. Almost all commercial lines and homeowners products have annual policies, under which premiums are earned evenly over one year. The resulting net earned premiums are impacted by the gross and ceded written premiums, earned ratably over the terms of the policies.

Our premiums are presented below for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Summary of Premium Revenue

Gross written premiums Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024 $ Change % Change
Commercial lines $3,483 $4,018 $(535) (13.3)%
Personal lines 11,159 11,068 91 0.8%

Personal lines 6,050 8,173 (2,123) (26.0)%
Total $6,821 $14,601 $(7,780) (53.3)%

* Percentage change is not meaningful.

Gross written premiums decreased $444,000, or 2.9%, to $14.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $15.1 million for the same period in 2024.

Commercial lines gross written premiums decreased $535,000, or 13.3%, to $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, as compared to $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2024. As of September 1, 2024, we no longer write any hospitality or small business commercial lines business. These lines are in run-off, and earned a small amount of premium during the third quarter of 2025. We currently do not expect to write a significant amount of other commercial lines in the near term.

Personal lines gross written premiums increased $91,000, or 0.8%, to $11.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, as compared to $11.1 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was due to the organic growth in the low-value dwelling book of business in Texas, which grew by $312,000 in the third quarter of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was offset by our exit in Oklahoma homeowners business. We plan to continue to write the Texas homeowners programs but we do not expect continued growth to be significant.

Net written premiums decreased $5.7 million, or 51.4%, to $5.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $11.2 million for the same period in 2024. The decline in net written premiums during the quarter was primarily due to the $4.1 million of premiums ceded under a new 50% quota share agreement for our homeowners book of business effective June 1, 2025. At inception, we also ceded 50% of the homeowners unearned premiums. In addition, there was continued reduction of the commercial lines business as it is substantially all in run-off.

Net earned premiums decreased $7.8 million, or 53.3%, to $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $14.6 million for the same period in 2024. This decrease was consistent with the decrease in net written premiums for during the quarter.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The tables below detail our losses and loss adjustment expenses and loss ratios in our underwriting business for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Three months ended September 30, 2025 Commercial Lines Personal Lines Total
Accident year net losses and LAE $654 $2,876 $3,530
Net (favorable) adverse development 2,590 269 2,859
Calendar year net losses and LAE $3,244 $3,145 $6,389
Accident year loss ratio 84.7% 47.5% 51.8%
Net (favorable) adverse development 335.7% 4.4% 41.9%
Calendar year loss ratio 420.4% 51.9% 93.7%
Three months ended September 30, 2024 Commercial Lines Personal Lines Total
Accident year net losses and LAE $2,870 $4,414 $7,284
Net (favorable) adverse development 7,928 (60) 7,868
Calendar year net losses and LAE $10,798 $4,354 $15,152
Accident year loss ratio 44.6% 54.0% 49.9%
Net (favorable) adverse development 123.4% (0.7)% 53.9%
Calendar year loss ratio 168.0% 53.3% 103.8%

Net losses and LAE decreased by $8.8 million, or 57.8%, to $6.4 million during the third quarter of 2025, compared to $15.2 million for the same period in 2024. The $3.8 million decrease in current accident year losses during the third quarter of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, was mostly due to a significant reduction in net earned premiums as commercial lines business is in runoff and we focus on the specialty homeowners business.

Expense Ratio

Our expense ratio is a measure of the efficiency and performance of the commercial and personal lines of business (our risk-bearing underwriting operations). It is calculated by dividing the sum of policy acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses by the sum of net earned premiums and other income of the underwriting business. Costs that cannot be readily identifiable as a direct cost of a segment or product line remain in Corporate for segment reporting purposes. The expense ratio excludes Corporate expenses. Due to the run-off nature of the commercial lines segment, with revenues being very small, the expense ratios for commercial lines are not deemed to be meaningful.

The table below provides the expense ratio by major component.

Commercial Lines Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024
Policy acquisition costs 32.8% 14.5%
Operating expenses 47.6% 14.6%
Total 80.4% 29.1%
Personal Lines
Policy acquisition costs 27.1% 28.4%
Operating expenses 16.2% 19.0%
Total 43.3% 47.4%
Total Underwriting
Policy acquisition costs 27.8% 22.2%
Operating expenses 19.7% 17.1%
Total 47.5% 39.3%

Our expense ratio increased by 8.2% during the third quarter of 2025, to 47.5%, compared to 39.3% for the same period in 2024.

Policy acquisition costs are costs we incur to issue policies, which include commissions, premium taxes and underwriting reports. The Company offsets direct commissions with ceding commissions from reinsurers. The percentage of policy acquisition costs to net earned premiums and other income increased by 5.6% during the third quarter of 2025 to 27.8%, compared to 22.2% during the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily related to the increased commission rates under new producer agreements concurrent with the sale of CIS and SSU. SSU, which is producing substantially all go-forward business, now manages the policy issuance, premium collections and systems of the homeowners book of business.

Operating expenses consist primarily of employee compensation, information technology and occupancy costs, such as rent and utilities. Operating expenses as a percent of net earned premiums and other underwriting income increased by 2.6% during the third quarter of 2025 to 19.7%, compared to 17.1% for the same period in 2024. The increase in the ratio was mostly due to significantly lower net earned premiums, while legacy operational costs related to the run-off books of business still exist. Such legacy costs are expected to reduce over the next year.

Segment Results

We measure the performance of our consolidated results, in part, based on our underwriting gain or loss. The following table provides the underwriting gain or loss for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Premiums

Premiums are earned ratably over the term of the policy, whereas written premiums are reflected on the effective date of the policy. Almost all commercial lines and homeowners products have annual policies, under which premiums are earned evenly over one year. The resulting net earned premiums are impacted by the gross and ceded written premiums, earned ratably over the terms of the policies.

Our premiums are presented below for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Gross written premiums decreased $6.5 million, or 11.1%, to $51.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $58.4 million for the same period in 2024.

Commercial lines gross written premiums decreased $14.8 million, or 63.0%, to $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $23.6 million for the same period in 2024. As of September 1, 2024, we no longer write any hospitality or small business commercial lines business. These lines are in run-off, and earned a small amount of premium during the first nine months of 2025. We currently do not expect to write a significant amount of other commercial lines in the near term.

Personal lines gross written premiums increased $8.4 million, or 24.0%, to $43.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $34.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was due to the organic growth in the low-value dwelling book of business in Texas and in the Midwest which, combined, grew by $14.4 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was offset by our exit in Oklahoma homeowners business. We plan to continue to write the Midwest and Texas homeowners programs but we do not expect continued growth to be significant.

Net written premiums decreased $22.2 million, or 55.7%, to $17.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $39.8 million for the same period in 2024. Net written premiums declined, in part due to the run-off of most of the commercial lines business. In addition, we entered into a new 50% quota share agreement for the homeowners business, inclusive of the unearned premium, as of June 1, 2025, which significantly reduced the personal lines net written premium, even though there was substantial gross written premium growth.

Net earned premiums decreased by $21.5 million, or 44.6%, to $26.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $48.2 million for the same period in 2024. This decrease was consistent with the decrease in net written premiums for during the quarter.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The tables below detail our losses and loss adjustment expenses and loss ratios in our underwriting business for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Nine months ended September 30, 2025 Commercial Lines Personal Lines Total
Accident year net losses and LAE $3,666 $15,009 $18,675
Net (favorable) adverse development 2,095 1,457 3,552

Nine months ended September 30, 2024 Commercial Lines Personal Lines Total
Accident year net losses and LAE $14,442 $16,305 $30,747
Net (favorable) adverse development 10,028 178 10,206
Calendar year net losses and LAE $24,470 $16,483 $40,953

Net (favorable) adverse development 41.9% 0.6% 21.1%
Calendar year loss ratio 102.1% 67.8% 84.8%

Net losses and LAE decreased by $18.7 million, or 45.7%, to $22.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $41.0 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was mostly attributable to a $12.1 million decrease in current accident year losses due to a significant reduction in net earned premiums as shown above. The decrease in current accident year losses was further added to by a $6.7 million decrease in adverse development on prior-year loss reserves.

Expense Ratio

Our expense ratio is a measure of the efficiency and performance of the commercial and personal lines of business (our risk-bearing underwriting operations). It is calculated by dividing the sum of policy acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses by the sum of net earned premiums and other income of the underwriting business. Costs that cannot be readily identifiable as a direct cost of a segment or product line remain in Corporate for segment reporting purposes. The expense ratio excludes Corporate expenses. Due to the run-off nature of the commercial lines segment, with revenues being very small, the expense ratios for commercial lines are not deemed to be meaningful.

The table below provides the expense ratio by major component.

Commercial Lines Nine months ended September 30, 2025 2024
Policy acquisition costs (3.9)% 13.5%
Operating expenses 48.7% 15.6%
Total 44.8% 29.1%
Personal Lines
Policy acquisition costs 28.8% 27.0%
Operating expenses 22.3% 14.2%
Total 51.1% 41.2%
Total Underwriting
Policy acquisition costs 25.7% 20.3%
Operating expenses 24.8% 14.9%
Total 50.5% 35.2%

Our expense ratio increased by 15.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, to 50.5%, compared to 35.2% for the same period in 2024.

Policy acquisition costs are costs we incur to issue policies, which include commissions, premium taxes and underwriting reports. The Company offsets direct commissions with ceding commissions from reinsurers. The percentage of policy acquisition costs to net earned premiums and other income increased by 5.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, to 25.7%, compared to 20.3% during the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily related to the increased commission rates under new producer agreements concurrent with the sale of CIS and SSU. SSU, which is producing substantially all go-forward business, now manages the policy issuance, premium collections and systems of the homeowners book of business.

Operating expenses consist primarily of employee compensation, information technology and occupancy costs, such as rent and utilities. Operating expenses as a percent of net earned premiums and other underwriting income increased by 9.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to 24.8%, compared to 14.9% for the same period in 2024. The increase in the ratio was mostly due to significantly lower net earned premiums, while legacy operational costs related to the run-off books of business still exist. Such legacy costs are expected to reduce over the next year.

Segment Results

We measure the performance of our consolidated results, in part, based on our underwriting gain or loss. The following table provides the underwriting gain or loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

At September 30, 2025, the Company had $62.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Our principal sources of funds are insurance premiums, investment income and proceeds from maturities and sales of invested assets. These funds are primarily used to pay claims, commissions, employee compensation, taxes and other operating expenses, and service debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.

We conduct our business operations primarily through our Insurance Company Subsidiaries. Our holding company's ability to service debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, and pay administrative expenses is primarily reliant upon our intercompany service fees paid by the Insurance Company Subsidiaries to the holding company for management, administrative, and information technology services provided to the Insurance Company Subsidiaries by the Parent Company. Secondarily, the Parent Company may receive dividends from the Insurance Company Subsidiaries; however, this is not the primary means in which the holding company supports its funding as state insurance laws restrict the ability of our Insurance Company Subsidiaries to declare dividends to the Parent Company. Generally, the limitations are based on the greater of statutory net income for the preceding year or 10% of statutory surplus at the end of the preceding year. There were no dividends paid from our Insurance Company Subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. We do not anticipate any dividends being paid to us from our insurance subsidiaries in the near term.

Due to significant losses in 2023 and 2024, much of which is attributable to strengthening reserves on the commercial liability lines of business (which are now all in run-off), our Insurance Company Subsidiaries lack sufficient capital to continue to underwrite the volume of business they have historically written. In particular, there was significant additional adverse development in TIC in the fourth quarter of 2024. This resulted in the need for PHI to contribute an additional $16.0 million into TIC in late 2024 and early 2025 in order for TIC to remain above the Regulatory Action Level of the Risk Based Capital (“RBC”). Even with these contributions, TIC fell within the Company Action Level with an RBC ratio of 156% and was required to submit a plan of remediation to its domiciliary regulator.

As an effort to support TIC and WPIC during 2024 and year-to-date 2025, the Parent Company received no intercompany service fees from the Insurance Company Subsidiaries and has relied significantly on proceeds from sales of assets and capital raises over the last two years in order to ensure its ability to meet its obligations as they became due.

To help support TIC’s RBC remediation plan, PHI contributed an additional $6.5 million to TIC in June 2025. TIC’s estimated RBC as of September 30, 2025, is now approximately 261%. As part of the plan to keep TIC’s RBC ratio above 200% in the near term, TIC is not expected to pay PHI any intercompany service fees for the duration of 2025 but is expected to resume such fees in 2026. TIC also entered into a quota share agreement with its homeowners book of business in June 2025 as a method of increasing the RBC ratio. It may take additional contributions to TIC to fully remediate TIC’s RBC position by December 31, 2025.

TIC is also subject to additional regulatory monitoring requirements as a result of the Company not being above the minimum required RBC levels as of December 31, 2024. WPIC no longer writes any business and TIC’s writings are significantly constrained by its diminished capital position.

If we do not remediate the regulatory deficiency the insurance regulator could suspend or terminate TIC’s authority to write business. Also, A.M. Best and Kroll downgraded the financial strength ratings of both companies and we terminated the rating relationship in early 2024. Therefore, neither company is currently rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization which can negatively impact their ability to market to policyholders. These circumstances could jeopardize the ability of the Company to generate insurance underwriting revenues.

PHI had $894,000 of cash as of September 30, 2025. PHI is required to make quarterly interest payments on its public debt of $412,000 and quarterly dividend payments of approximately $253,000, depending on changing interest rates, on its mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. PHI is also currently bearing much of the operating costs of the organization because no management fee is being paid by either insurance company during 2025. Absent any other action, PHI will require additional liquidity to continue its operations over the next twelve months. PHI’s cash obligations are expected to be funded with bridge loan financing from current investors, cash on hand, the expected receipt of a $10.0 million third earnout payment by September 2026 and the potential sale of available assets and additional short-term financing available from existing investors. PHI has received a letter of support from its largest shareholder confirming its commitment and ability to provide financial support to the Company to support the necessary liquidity for a year and a day from the date of the financial statements. Management believes its plans provide the Company the ability to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months.

The book value per share reflected in our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, may not represent the amount that shareholders would receive if the Company were liquidated or sold.

The book value per share is calculated based on the historical cost of our assets, less accumulated depreciation and liabilities. This value does not account for the current market conditions, potential future earnings or expenses, or the fair market value of our assets (except the investment portfolio which is state at market value) and liabilities. As a result, the book value per share may differ significantly from the actual proceeds that could be realized in a liquidation or sale.

Our outstanding public debt securities are currently trading at a discount to their face amount. In order to reduce future cash interest payments, as well as future amounts due at maturity or upon redemption, we may, from time to time, purchase such debt for cash, in exchange for common stock, or for a combination of cash and common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions. We will evaluate any such transactions in light of then-existing market conditions, taking into account our current liquidity and prospects for future access to capital. The amounts involved in such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material.

In February and March of 2025, the Company issued $7.5 million of its newly designated Series B Preferred Stock. The Company intends to use the proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes. With the recent capital raise, anticipated go-forward revenues, the Company receiving its second $10.0 million earnout, the possibility of receiving the third $10.0 million earnout during 2026 and the potential for further asset sales, management believes the Company has the ability to meet its obligations as they become due over the next twelve months.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $18.7 million, compared to $12.7 million of cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2024. The $6.0 million increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily due a $6.9 million decrease in net premiums collected plus a $9.1 million increase in net losses paid during the first nine months of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This was partially offset by a $6.3 million decrease in compensation expense paid.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $9.0 million, compared to $50.5 million of cash provided by investing activities for the same period in 2024. The $59.5 million increase in cash used by investing activities was driven by a $97.9 million increase in purchases of investments during the first nine months of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. Additionally, the Company received $0 in proceeds from the CIS Sale during the first nine months of 2025, compared to $43.0 million for the same period in 2024. These amounts were offset by a $65.1 million increase in proceeds from the sale of investments during the first nine months of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. These amounts were further offset by the Company receiving $10.0 million from a contingent consideration from the CIS Sale during the first nine months of 2025, compared to $0 for the same period in 2024.

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $7.5 million compared to $16.6 million of cash used in financing activities for the same period in 2024. The $24.1 million increase in cash provided by financing activities was attributed to the $5.6 million of Series B Preferred Stock issued and the $1.9 million of stock warrants issued from the Series B Preferred Stock during the first nine months of 2025. The Company paid off $9.8 million of its long-term debt during the first nine months of 2024. The Company also paid off $6.0 million of its Series A Preferred Stock during the first nine months of 2024.

Statutory Capital and Surplus

Our Insurance Company Subsidiaries are required to file quarterly and annual financial reports with state insurance regulators. These financial reports are prepared using statutory accounting practices promulgated by the Insurance Company Subsidiaries’ state of domiciliary, rather than GAAP. The Insurance Company Subsidiaries’ aggregate statutory capital and surplus (which is a statutory measure of equity) was $51.3 million and $41.1 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income Per Share

Adjusted operating income or loss and adjusted operating income or loss per share are non-GAAP measures that represent net income or loss excluding net realized investment gains (losses), change in fair value of equity securities, change in fair value of contingent considerations, change in contingent consideration bonus expense and net income (loss) from discontinued operations. The most directly comparable financial GAAP measures to adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per share are net income allocable to common shareholders and net income allocable to common shareholders per share, respectively. Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per share are intended as supplemental information and are not meant to replace net income allocable to common shareholders or net income allocable to common shareholders per share. Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per share should be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial results. Our definition of adjusted operating income may be different from that used by other companies. The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss) (dollars in thousands), as well as net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders per share to adjusted operating income (loss) per share:

Adjusted operating income (loss) per share $(0.22) $(0.56) $(0.69) $(0.71)

* See Note 12 ~ Commitments and Contingencies for further information about the contingent consideration bonus expense.

** The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. As a result, there were no taxable impacts to adjusted operating income from the adjustments to net income (loss) in the table above after taking into account the use of NOLs and the change in the valuation allowance.

We use adjusted operating income or loss and adjusted operating income or loss per share to assess our performance and to evaluate the results of our overall business. We believe these measures provide investors with valuable information relating to our ongoing performance that may be obscured by the net effect of realized gains and losses as a result of our market risk sensitive instruments, which primarily relate to debt securities that are available for sale and not held for trading purposes. The change in fair value of equity securities and realized gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by external economic developments, such as capital market conditions. Accordingly, adjusted operating income excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period and highlights the results from our ongoing business operations and the underlying results of our business. We believe that it is useful for investors to evaluate adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income per share, along with net income and net income per share, when reviewing and evaluating our performance.
