The Company’s headquarters is located at 26 Reid Street, Hamilton, Bermuda HM 11, its principal executive office is located at 23 South Main Street, Suite 3B, Hanover, New Hampshire 03755-2053 and its registered office is located at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton, Bermuda HM 11. The Company’s website is located at www.whitemountains.com. The information contained on White Mountains’s website is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this report.
White Mountains is engaged in the business of making opportunistic and value-oriented acquisitions of businesses and assets in the insurance, financial services and related sectors, operating these businesses and assets through its subsidiaries and, if and when attractive exit valuations become available, disposing of these businesses and assets.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains conducted its business primarily in five areas: property and casualty insurance and reinsurance, municipal bond guarantee reinsurance, capital solutions for asset and wealth management firms, specialty insurance distribution and other operations. White Mountains’s property and casualty insurance and reinsurance business is conducted through its subsidiary Ark Insurance Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Ark”) and Outrigger Re Ltd. Segregated Account 2023-1 (“WM Outrigger Re”) (collectively with Ark, “Ark/WM Outrigger”). White Mountains’s municipal bond guarantee reinsurance business is conducted through its subsidiary HG Global Ltd. and its reinsurance subsidiary HG Re Ltd.

ARK/WM OUTRIGGER
Overview
The Ark/WM Outrigger segment consists of Ark and WM Outrigger Re.
On January 1, 2021, White Mountains acquired a controlling ownership interest in Ark (the “Ark Transaction”). Ark is a specialty property and casualty insurance and reinsurance company that offers a wide range of niche insurance and reinsurance products, including property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, Ark sponsored the formation of Outrigger Re Ltd., a Bermuda company registered as a special purpose insurer and segregated accounts company, to provide collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. Ark renewed its quota share reinsurance agreement with Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 underwriting years. White Mountains consolidates its segregated account of Outrigger Re Ltd., WM Outrigger Re, in its financial statements. White Mountains’s capital commitment to WM Outrigger Re was $150 million for the 2025 underwriting year, $130 million for the 2024 underwriting year and $205 million for the 2023 underwriting year. WM Outrigger Re is not participating in the 2026 underwriting year; however, WM Outrigger Re remains exposed to losses that occur prior to the expiration of the 2025 underwriting year on June 30, 2026.
Ark
Ark is a specialty property and casualty insurance and reinsurance company that offers a wide range of niche insurance and reinsurance products. Ark underwrites select coverages through its two major subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and Bermuda.
In the United Kingdom, Ark participates in the Lloyd’s of London (“Lloyd’s”) market through Ark Corporate Member Limited (“ACML”), Ark’s wholly-owned Lloyd’s corporate member, which in turn provides underwriting capacity to Lloyd’s Syndicates 4020 and 3902 and Additional Central Settlement Number (“ACSN”) 3832 (collectively, the “Syndicates”). ACSN 3832 writes business on behalf of Syndicate 4020. Ark Syndicate Management Limited (“ASML”), Ark’s wholly-owned Lloyd’s managing agent, oversees the underwriting of the Syndicates. The Syndicates underwrite a diversified portfolio of insurance and reinsurance product lines, including property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health. Syndicate 4020 commenced underwriting on April 1, 2007, Syndicate 3902 on January 1, 2017 and ACSN 3832 on July 1, 2024.
In Bermuda, Ark underwrites through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Group Ark Insurance Limited (“GAIL”), a Class 4 Bermuda-domiciled insurance and reinsurance company. GAIL underwrites a diversified portfolio of insurance and reinsurance product lines, including property, marine & energy, specialty, casualty and accident & health lines. GAIL commenced underwriting third-party business in January 2021. In addition, GAIL provides capital to support ACML’s capital requirements at Lloyd’s (“Funds at Lloyd’s”). In November 2025, AM Best affirmed GAIL’s financial strength rating at “A/stable.”
In both jurisdictions, Ark underwrites business primarily through insurance and reinsurance brokers and wholesalers, both in the open market and through managing general agents (“MGAs”).
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains reported $6,146 million and $5,134 million of total assets and $1,594 million and $1,438 million of total equity related to Ark. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 72.1% of Ark on a basic shares outstanding basis (61.9% after taking account of management’s equity incentives) and reported $465 million and $410 million of noncontrolling interests related to Ark. The remaining shares are owned by current and former employees of Ark. In the future, management rollover shareholders could earn additional shares in Ark if and to the extent that White Mountains achieves certain thresholds for its multiple of invested capital return. If fully earned, these shares would represent an additional 12.3% of the shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

WM Outrigger Re
During the fourth quarter of 2022, Ark sponsored the formation of Outrigger Re Ltd., a Bermuda company registered as a special purpose insurer and segregated accounts company, to provide reinsurance capacity to Ark. Outrigger Re Ltd. was initially capitalized with $250 million of preference shares for business written in the 2023 underwriting year, of which White Mountains contributed $205 million. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors. Outrigger Re Ltd. entered into collateralized quota share agreements with GAIL to provide reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. The proceeds from the issuance of the preference shares were deposited into collateral trust accounts to fund any potential obligations under the reinsurance agreements with GAIL. Outrigger Re Ltd.’s obligations under the reinsurance agreements with GAIL are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in the collateral trusts at any point in time. The terms of the reinsurance agreements are renewable upon the mutual agreement of Ark and the applicable preference shareholder of Outrigger Re Ltd.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2024 underwriting year with $250 million of capital. White Mountains rolled over $130 million from its commitment to the 2023 underwriting year. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2025 underwriting year with $230 million of capital. White Mountains’s total commitment was $150 million, of which $130 million was rolled over from its commitment to the 2024 underwriting year. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors. The reduced capacity at Outrigger Re Ltd. was replaced by Ark through traditional quota share reinsurance agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2024, White Mountains received net distributions of $123 million from WM Outrigger Re, which included a net return of capital related to changes in White Mountains’s capital commitments for the 2024 and 2025 underwriting years and reinsurance profits for the 2023 underwriting year. During the year ended December 31, 2024, WM Outrigger Re commuted its reinsurance agreement with GAIL for the 2023 underwriting year.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2026 underwriting year with $70 million of capital. The reduced capacity at Outrigger Re Ltd. was replaced by Ark through traditional quota share reinsurance agreements. The capital was provided entirely by third-party investors excluding White Mountains. During the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains received net distributions of $10 million from WM Outrigger Re, related primarily to reinsurance profits for the 2024 underwriting year. In January 2026, White Mountains received a distribution of $128 million, which included a net return of capital related to its non-renewal for the 2026 underwriting year. White Mountains expects to receive additional distributions of reinsurance profits from the 2025 underwriting year in 2026.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains reported $270 million and $236 million of total assets and $232 million and $196 million of total equity related to WM Outrigger Re. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 100% of WM Outrigger Re’s preferred equity.
Insurance and Reinsurance Overview
Generally, insurance companies underwrite insurance policies in exchange for premiums paid by their customers (the insureds). An insurance policy is a contract between the insurance company and the insured where the insurance company agrees to pay for losses suffered by the insured or a third-party claimant that are covered under the contract. Such contracts are often subject to subsequent legal interpretation by courts, legislative action and arbitration.
Reinsurance is an arrangement in which a reinsurance company (the reinsurer) agrees to indemnify an insurance company (the ceding company) for insurance risks underwritten by the ceding company. Reinsurance can benefit a ceding company in several ways, including reducing net exposure to individual risks, providing protection from large or catastrophic losses and assisting in maintaining required capital levels and financial or operating leverage ratios. Reinsurance can provide a ceding company with additional underwriting capacity by permitting it to accept larger risks and underwrite a greater number of risks without increasing its capital as much as would be the case without reinsurance. Reinsurers may also purchase reinsurance for themselves, which is known as retrocessional reinsurance, to cover risks assumed from ceding companies. Reinsurance companies often enter into retrocessional reinsurance agreements for many of the reasons that ceding companies enter into reinsurance agreements.
Reinsurance is generally written on a treaty or facultative basis. Treaty reinsurance is an agreement whereby the reinsurer assumes a specified portion or category of risk under all qualifying policies issued by the ceding company during the term of the agreement, usually one year. When underwriting treaty reinsurance business, the reinsurer does not evaluate each individual risk and generally accepts the original underwriting decisions made by the ceding company. Treaty reinsurance is typically written on either a proportional or excess of loss basis. A proportional reinsurance treaty is an arrangement whereby a reinsurer assumes a predetermined proportional share of the premiums and losses generated on specified business. An excess of loss reinsurance treaty is an arrangement whereby a reinsurer assumes losses that exceed a specific retention of loss by the ceding company. Facultative reinsurance, on the other hand, is underwritten on a risk-by-risk basis, which allows the reinsurer to determine individual pricing for each exposure.

Insurance and reinsurance companies incur a significant amount of their total expenses from policy obligations, which are commonly referred to as claims or losses. In settling claims, various loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) are incurred such as insurance adjusters’ fees and litigation expenses. Loss and LAE are categorized by the year in which the policy is underwritten (the year of account or underwriting year) for purposes of Ark’s claims management and estimation of the ultimate loss and LAE reserves. For purposes of Ark’s reporting under GAAP, loss and LAE are categorized by the year in which the claim is incurred (the accident year). In the following calendar years, as Ark increases or decreases its estimate for the ultimate loss and LAE for claims in prior underwriting years, or prior accident years for reporting under GAAP, it will record favorable or unfavorable loss reserve development, which is recorded in the calendar year when such loss reserve development is determined. In addition, insurance companies incur policy acquisition expenses, such as commissions paid to agents and premium taxes, and other expenses related to the underwriting process, including employee compensation and benefits. A key measure of absolute and relative underwriting performance for an insurance company is the combined ratio. An insurance company’s combined ratio is calculated by adding the ratio of incurred loss and LAE to earned premiums (the loss ratio) and the ratio of policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses to earned premiums (the expense ratio). A combined ratio under 100% indicates that an insurance company is generating an underwriting profit, while a combined ratio over 100% indicates that an insurance company is generating an underwriting loss.
Ark derives substantially all of its revenues from earned premiums, investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses). Ark also receives fee revenues and profit commissions from business ceded to its reinsurers across multiple classes of business. Written premiums represent the amount charged to an insured or reinsured party to provide coverage under an insurance or reinsurance contract, which are recognized as earned premiums within revenue over the period that insurance coverage period is provided (i.e., ratably over the life of the policy or, in the case of catastrophe premiums, in proportion to the level of insurance protection provided.) Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written that are applicable to future insurance coverage provided by policies. A significant period often elapses between receipt of insurance premiums and payment of insurance claims. During this time, Ark invests the premiums, earns investment income and generates net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses).
Lines of Business
Ark writes specialized lines of insurance and reinsurance across its United Kingdom and Bermuda platforms within five major lines of business: property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health. Claims for property, specialty, marine & energy and accident & health coverages are typically reported and settled in a relatively short period of time. Casualty insurance (often referred to as liability insurance) generally covers the financial consequences of a legal liability of an individual or an organization resulting from negligent acts or omissions causing bodily injury, property damages and/or economic damages to a third-party. Settlements for casualty/liability coverages can extend for long periods of time as claims are often reported and ultimately paid or settled years after the related loss events occur.
Ark has recently added new products and lines of business to its portfolio, as it focuses on profitable business opportunities while carefully managing underwriting risk. Ark also leads certain Lloyd’s market consortia, including two that target renewable energy clients including wind farms, solar plants, hydroelectric plants, geothermal plants and wave and tidal projects, as well as others that focus on property and power outage coverages.
The following table presents Ark’s gross written premiums by line of business for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

Marketing and Distribution
Ark offers its products and services through a network of brokers, MGAs and reinsurance intermediaries (collectively, “insurance and reinsurance intermediaries”). In the United Kingdom, Ark operates through the Syndicates with Lloyd’s approved brokers and MGAs. In Bermuda, Ark primarily derives its reinsurance business through insurance and reinsurance intermediaries that represent the ceding company and its insurance business through brokers based in Bermuda and London. Ark pays commissions to brokers, MGAs and reinsurance intermediaries as compensation for facilitating the flow and processing of business, typically on industry standard percentages of premium underwritten. In addition, Ark pays certain MGAs profit commissions based on the underwriting profit of the business they produce.
During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, Ark received a significant portion of its gross written premiums from five insurance and reinsurance intermediaries. The following table shows the proportion of business produced by the top five insurance and reinsurance intermediaries for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

|  | Year Ended December 31,
Gross written premiums by insurance and reinsurance intermediary |  | 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. |  | 24.3 | % |  | 25.8 | % |  | 27.5 | %

Underwriting and Pricing
Ark aims to build a diversified and balanced portfolio of risks that generates an underwriting profit each year. Ark believes in a disciplined underwriting strategy that aims to consistently outperform the market. In hard market conditions, Ark aims to grow premiums, as pricing, terms and conditions and limit deployment are more favorable and can lead to enhanced returns on capital. In soft markets, Ark is willing to reduce its business volume when pricing, terms and conditions and limit deployment can make it more difficult to achieve an adequate return on capital. Ark is willing to forgo business if it believes it is not priced appropriately for the exposure or risk assumed.
Ark operates an underwriting controls framework which includes individual underwriting authorities, continuous quality monitoring and peer review of risks. The framework aims to ensure a high quality of underwriting through monitoring of pricing and rate change, contract certainty and appropriate terms and conditions. The nature of delegated underwriting naturally increases the risk of underwriting, through the ability of third parties being able to bind Ark to risks without detailed review of the risk involved. This risk is mitigated through the application of strict underwriting guidelines, managed by a dedicated team within the Ark compliance department. This team reviews MGA and third-party binding authority approvals pre-bind and monitors a program of audits to ensure compliance with regulations and guidelines.
Ark uses bespoke pricing models for each of the products that it underwrites. These pricing models seek to generate a pricing metric required to achieve an acceptable return on capital for each class of business, and each of the risks priced therein. These models rely on several factors depending on the class of business, including exposure analysis, historical experience, estimates of future loss costs, claims experience and natural catastrophe outlook, including the physical risk of climate change and inflation. See “Ark — Catastrophe Risk Management and Reinsurance Protection” on page 8.
Ark actively monitors price adequacy at various points between individual risks and the portfolio level to measure and evaluate overall performance. In addition, Ark updates rates to achieve targeted returns on capital at an individual risk as well as portfolio level to enhance return on capital.

Competition
Specialized lines of insurance and reinsurance are highly competitive. Ark competes with other Lloyd’s syndicates, London market participants and major U.S., Bermuda, European and other international insurance and reinsurance companies. The significant competitive factors for most products are price, terms and conditions, broker relationships, underwriting service, financial strength rating and claims service. Ark competes with insurance and reinsurance companies who operate in the Bermuda and Lloyd’s markets such as:
•Bermuda insurance and reinsurance market: American International Group, Inc., Arch Capital Group Ltd., Ascot Group Ltd., Aspen Insurance Holdings Ltd., Chubb Ltd., Everest Re Group, Markel Group, Inc., RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd., Sompo Holdings Inc., SiriusPoint Ltd. and others;
•Lloyd’s market: AXIS Capital Holdings Ltd., Beazley plc, Canopius Group Ltd., Convex Group Ltd., Hiscox plc, Lancashire Holdings Ltd., QBE Insurance Group Ltd. and other syndicates.
Claims Management
Effective claims management is a critical factor in achieving satisfactory underwriting results. Ark maintains an experienced staff of dedicated claims handlers and loss adjusters. These individuals seek to ensure that Ark has the appropriate level of expertise to handle complex claims. Within the claims departments, Ark also uses various shared services. These include third-party claims administrators, particularly for lower value, less specialized claims (for example in Ark’s MGA-produced business), subrogation and recovery support and legal representation.
For business written in the Lloyd’s market, claims handling and case reserves are established in accordance with the applicable Lloyd’s Claim Scheme and Lloyd’s Claims Management Principles and Oversight Framework.
Catastrophe Risk Management and Reinsurance Protection
Catastrophe Risk Management
Ark
Ark has exposure to losses caused by unpredictable catastrophic events all over the world including natural and other disasters such as hurricanes, windstorms, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes, tsunamis and severe weather. Catastrophes can also include large losses driven by public health crises, terrorist attacks, war and war-like actions, explosions, infrastructure failures and cyber attacks. The extent of a catastrophe loss is a function of both the severity of the event and total amount of insured exposure to the event, as well as the coverage provided to customers. Increases in the value and concentration of insured property or insured employees, the effects of inflation, changes in weather patterns and increased terrorism and war and war-like actions could increase the future frequency and/or severity of claims from catastrophic events. Climate change, which is characterized by higher temperatures, sea level rise and more extreme weather events including droughts, heavy storms, wildfires and stronger hurricanes, increases the frequency and severity of certain major natural catastrophes. There is also a growing threat of cyber catastrophes due to the increasing interconnectivity of global systems and artificial intelligence.
Ark seeks to manage its exposure to catastrophic losses by limiting and monitoring the aggregate insured value of policies in geographic areas with exposure to catastrophic events and by buying reinsurance. To manage, monitor and analyze insured values and potential losses, Ark utilizes proprietary and third-party catastrophe management software to estimate potential losses for many different catastrophe scenarios. Ark incorporates the physical risk of climate change in its underwriting process through sensitivity and stress testing of its catastrophe models, including increased frequency of U.S. windstorms and the implications of storm surge.
8

Ark licenses third-party global property catastrophe models from Risk Management Solutions Inc. and Karen Clark & Company, as well as utilizes its own proprietary models to calculate expected probable maximum loss (“PML”) estimates from various property and non-property catastrophe scenarios. Ark prices property catastrophe contracts using its own proprietary models, utilizing inputs from third-party software and other data as appropriate. For business that Ark determines to have exposure to catastrophic perils, as part of its underwriting process, it models and evaluates the exposure to assess whether there is an appropriate premium charged for the exposure assumed.
Ark’s two largest natural catastrophe PML zones on a per occurrence basis for a 1-in-250 year event, as measured on a net after-tax exposure basis, are U.S. windstorm and U.S. earthquake. The net after-tax exposure is net of amounts ceded to reinsurers and reinstatement premiums. Different perils are more prevalent at different times of the year, and Ark tailors its outwards reinsurance program to incept accordingly. Once the placement of Ark’s 2026 outwards reinsurance program is completed, Ark expects its net after-tax peak exposure for a 1-in-250 year event related to its largest PML zone to approximate 20-35% of its tangible capital (tangible book value plus debt). Ark’s tangible capital was $1,833 million as of December 31, 2025.
In addition, Ark also has loss exposures to other global natural catastrophe events including, but not limited to, Japanese earthquakes, Japanese windstorms, European windstorms and U.S. wildfires.
Ark’s estimates of potential losses are dependent on many variables, including assumptions about storm intensity, storm surge and loss amplification, loss adjustment expenses and insurance-to-value in the aftermath of weather-related catastrophes. In addition, Ark has to account for quality of data provided by insureds. Accordingly, if the assumptions are incorrect, the losses Ark might incur from an actual catastrophe could be materially different than the expectation of losses generated from modeled catastrophe scenarios. There could also be unmodelled losses which exceed the amounts estimated for U.S. windstorm and U.S. earthquake catastrophes.
Outside of natural catastrophe losses, Ark has exposure to non-natural or man-made large losses. The current largest exposures are cyber, offshore energy production platforms, aviation, terrorism events, war and war-like actions and political risk. Ark uses data from clients and combines this with accumulation tools and PML assessments to obtain potential loss scenarios.
Cyber losses can be derived from a number of scenarios that include major data security breach on large multinational organizations, business blackout from cyber attack on power generation and distribution facilities, malicious attack on cloud service provider data center and ransomware contagion across both individual and multiple corporations. Catastrophic losses in respect of offshore energy production platforms can include physical damage, business interruption, pollution liability, extra expenses and control of oil or gas flow therefrom. Aviation can include physical damage, passenger and third-party liability, hijacking, confiscation, expropriation, nationalization and deprivation. Terrorism and war and war-like actions can include physical damage, business interruption, liability, loss of life and fire following at locations around the world either in a single city or in coordinated attacks across multiple cities, countries or regions. Political and credit risk scenarios can include confiscation, expropriation, nationalization and deprivation of assets, non-payment of financial obligations and mortgage default. Ark estimates its largest net after-tax loss from non-natural/man-made loss scenarios to be less than 10% of its tangible capital.

WM Outrigger Re
WM Outrigger Re has exposure to losses caused by unpredictable catastrophic events including natural and other disasters all over the world such as hurricanes, windstorms, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes, tsunamis, severe weather and related infrastructure failures. The extent of a catastrophe loss is a function of both the severity of the event and total amount of insured exposure to the event, as well as the coverage provided to customers. Increases in the value and concentration of insured property, the effects of inflation and changes in weather patterns could increase the future frequency and/or severity of claims from catastrophic events. Climate change, which is characterized by higher temperatures, sea level rise and more extreme weather events including droughts, heavy storms, wildfires and stronger hurricanes, increases the frequency and severity of certain major natural catastrophes.
WM Outrigger Re is not providing reinsurance to GAIL for the 2026 underwriting year. However, WM Outrigger Re remains exposed to natural catastrophe events that occur prior to the expiration of the 2025 underwriting year on June 30, 2026. WM Outrigger Re’s two largest remaining natural catastrophe PML zones on a per occurrence basis for a 1-in-250 year event as of January 2026, as measured net of reinstatement premiums, are U.S. earthquake and Japanese windstorm. These two loss events would each represent less than 1% of White Mountains’s common equity. WM Outrigger Re’s obligations under its reinsurance agreement with GAIL are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in the collateral trust at any point in time.
Reinsurance Protection
As part of its enterprise risk management function, Ark purchases reinsurance for risk mitigation purposes. Ark utilizes reinsurance and retrocession agreements to reduce earnings volatility, protect capital, limit its exposure to risk concentration and accumulation of loss and manage within its overall internal risk tolerances or those set and agreed by regulators, ratings agencies and Lloyd’s. Ark also enters into reinsurance and retrocession agreements to reduce its liability on individual risks and enable it to underwrite policies with higher limits where Ark believes this has a broader business benefit.
Ark seeks to protect its downside risk from catastrophes and large loss events by purchasing reinsurance, including quota share and excess of loss protections, aggregate covers and industry loss warranties. Ark also considers alternative structures such as collateralized reinsurance, retrocessional reinsurance and catastrophe bonds.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, 2024 and 2025, Ark renewed its collateralized quota share agreements with Outrigger Re Ltd., a Bermuda special purpose insurer, covering Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2024, 2025 and 2026 underwriting years, respectively.
The purchase of reinsurance does not discharge Ark from its primary liability for the full value of its policies, and thus the collectability of balances due from Ark’s reinsurers is critical to its financial strength. Ark monitors the financial strength and ratings of its reinsurers on an ongoing basis. See Note 6 — “Third-Party Reinsurance” on page F-47 for a discussion of Ark’s top reinsurers.
Ark’s Loss and LAE Reserves
Ark establishes loss and LAE reserves that are estimates of amounts needed to pay claims and related expenses in the future for insured events that have already occurred, including both reported and unreported claims. Loss reserves are established due to the significant periods of time that may occur between the occurrence, reporting and payment of a loss. The process of estimating reserves involves a considerable degree of judgment by management and is inherently uncertain. See “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Loss and LAE Reserves” on page 90 and Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” on page F-36 for a full discussion regarding Ark’s loss reserving process.

HG GLOBAL
Overview
The HG Global segment consists of HG Global and, prior to its deconsolidation on July 1, 2024, the consolidated results of Build America Mutual Assurance Company (“BAM”). See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
HG Global was established to fund the startup of BAM and provide reinsurance protection to BAM’s municipal bond insured portfolio. HG Global, together with its subsidiaries, funded the initial capitalization of BAM through the purchase of $503 million of surplus notes issued by BAM (the “BAM Surplus Notes”). HG Global, through its reinsurance subsidiary, HG Re, is a party to a first-loss reinsurance treaty (“FLRT”) with BAM, under which HG Re provides first-loss protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. HG Re is only licensed to provide reinsurance to BAM. HG Re is required to provide reinsurance on policies that fall within the FLRT underwriting guidelines agreed upon by HG Re.
BAM is the first and only mutual municipal bond insurance company in the United States. By insuring the timely payment of principal and interest on municipal bonds, BAM provides market access to, and lowers interest expense for, issuers of municipal bonds used to finance essential public purpose projects. As a mutual insurance company, BAM is owned by and operated for the benefit of its members, the municipalities whose debt issuances are insured by BAM. BAM is domiciled in New York and is regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”).
White Mountains does not have an ownership interest in BAM. However, through June 30, 2024, White Mountains was required to consolidate BAM’s results in its financial statements because BAM is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which White Mountains was the primary beneficiary. BAM’s results were all attributed to noncontrolling interests. On July 1, 2024, HG Re and BAM amended the FLRT with respect to certain governance rights held by HG Re. As a result, and in combination with other governance changes at BAM, White Mountains concluded that it no longer has the power to direct BAM’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and is no longer BAM’s primary beneficiary. Accordingly, as of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations, are presented within the HG Global segment. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
HG Global has two primary sources of cash flows: (i) interest payments on the BAM Surplus Notes that are made outside the Collateral Trusts and (ii) releases of excess balances from the Collateral Trusts. See “Collateral Trusts” on page 12.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains reported $1,237 million and $1,179 million of total assets and $210 million and $253 million of total equity related to HG Global. HG Global’s total equity attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders after intercompany eliminations related to preferred dividends payable to White Mountains and intercompany debt was $756 million and $729 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 96.9% of HG Global’s preferred equity and 88.4% of its common equity. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains reported $(18) million and $(13) million of noncontrolling interests related to HG Global.
Reinsurance Treaties
HG Global provides reinsurance exclusively to BAM. Through the reinsurance relationship with BAM, HG Global maintains a direct dialogue and line of sight into key operations, including the application of both BAM’s underwriting guidelines and the FLRT underwriting guidelines, continuous portfolio monitoring, credit surveillance and claims paying resources.
HG Global reinsures all BAM policies that meet the FLRT underwriting guidelines. This has resulted in a portfolio with a focus on prudent single risk limits for small-to-medium sized, public investment grade municipal bonds in the United States (primarily in the AA, A and BBB categories in low-risk, stable sectors) that are issued to finance essential public purpose projects, such as schools, utilities and transportation facilities. White Mountains believes that municipal bonds insured by BAM have strong appeal to retail investors, who buy smaller, less liquid issuances, have less portfolio diversification and have fewer credit differentiation skills and analytical resources than institutional investors.
HG Re, through its reinsurance treaties with BAM, is exposed to climate-related events to the extent that those events impact a municipal issuer’s ability to service its debt obligations. Under the FLRT underwriting guidelines, BAM incorporates climate change risk in its credit underwriting process. In doing so, BAM considers both the short-term economic impact from climate change-related severe weather events (including flooding, wildfires, drought, windstorms and tornadoes), as well as longer-term impacts on population and property values from rising sea levels and changing temperature patterns.
11

FLRT
Under the FLRT, HG Re provides first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. For capital appreciation bonds, par is adjusted to the estimated equivalent par value for current interest paying bonds. HG Re is required to provide reinsurance on policies that fall within the FLRT underwriting guidelines agreed upon by HG Re.
BAM charges an insurance premium on each municipal bond insurance policy it underwrites. Historically, approximately 55% of the total insurance premium charged by BAM has been a member surplus contribution (“MSC”), and the remainder is a risk premium. In return for the reinsurance provided, HG Re receives approximately 60% of the risk premium charged, which is net of a ceding commission.
The FLRT is a perpetual agreement with terms that can be renegotiated every five years. For the next renegotiation period, either party may provide notice during 2028 to trigger a renegotiation that would take effect on January 1, 2030. If the parties are unable to mutually agree to amended terms, the dispute is resolved through arbitration, according to certain principles agreed to by the parties. Amended contract terms must be approved by the NYDFS. Should BAM consider the amended terms unacceptable, it has the option to purchase HG Re or cause another reinsurer to purchase HG Re, at fair value.
In addition, the FLRT provides HG Holdings Ltd., a subsidiary of HG Global, the right to designate two directors for election to BAM’s Board of Directors.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $61 million and earned premiums of $31 million. Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, HG Re’s reinsurance balances under the FLRT eliminated in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. For the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $32 million and earned premiums of $15 million during the year ended December 31, 2024.
XOLT
HG Re is also party to an excess of loss reinsurance agreement (the “XOLT”) with BAM under which HG Re provides last-dollar protection for exposures on municipal bonds insured by BAM in excess of the NYDFS single issuer limits. As of December 31, 2025, the XOLT is subject to an aggregate limit equal to the lesser of $125 million or the assets held in the supplemental collateral trust (the “Supplemental Trust”) at any point in time. The XOLT is accounted for using deposit accounting, as the agreement does not meet the risk transfer requirements necessary to be accounted for as reinsurance. Accordingly, any financing revenues related to the XOLT are recorded in other revenues,
Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, HG Re’s reinsurance balances under the XOLT eliminated in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, other revenues recognized by HG Re related to the XOLT were insignificant.
Collateral Trusts
HG Re’s obligations under the FLRT are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in two collateral trusts, the Supplemental Trust and the Regulation 114 Trust (together, the “Collateral Trusts”), at any point in time.
On a monthly basis, BAM deposits cash equal to ceded premiums net of ceding commissions, due to HG Re under the FLRT directly into the Regulation 114 Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust target balance is equal to HG Re’s unearned premiums and unpaid loss and LAE reserves, if any. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is below the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Supplemental Trust and deposited into the Regulation 114 Trust in an amount equal to the shortfall. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is above 102% of the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Regulation 114 Trust and deposited into the Supplemental Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $399 million and $352 million, which consisted of cash, investments and accrued investment income.
The Supplemental Trust target balance is $603 million, less the amount of cash and securities in the Regulation 114 Trust in excess of its target balance (the “Supplemental Trust Target Balance”). If, at the end of any quarter, the Supplemental Trust balance exceeds the Supplemental Trust Target Balance, such excess may be distributed to HG Re. The distribution will be made first as an assignment of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and second in cash and/or fixed income securities. For the year ended December 31, 2025, HG Re received a distribution from the Supplemental Trust of $61 million, which consisted of an assignment of $30 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and a cash distribution of $31 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, HG Re received a distribution from the Supplemental Trust of $80 million, which consisted of an assignment of $59 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and a cash distribution of $21 million.
12

As the BAM Surplus Notes are repaid over time, the BAM Surplus Notes will be replaced in the Supplemental Trust by cash and fixed income securities. The Supplemental Trust balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $607 million and $598 million, which included $323 million and $289 million of cash, investments and accrued investment income, $277 million and $301 million of BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value and $7 million and $8 million of accrued interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Collateral Trusts held total assets of $1,007 million and $950 million.
BAM Surplus Notes
Through June 30, 2024, the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes was a variable rate equal to the one-year U.S. Treasury rate plus 300 basis points, set annually, with each payment applied pro rata between outstanding principal and interest. Accordingly, in 2024, the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes was 8.2% through June 30, 2024. Effective July 1, 2024 and through maturity, HG Global and BAM amended the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes to be 10.0%, with a higher proportion of each payment to be applied to outstanding principal.
Under its agreements with HG Global, BAM is required to seek regulatory approval to pay principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes only to the extent that its remaining qualified statutory capital and other capital resources continue to support its outstanding obligations, its business plan and its “AA/stable” rating from Standard & Poor’s. No payment of principal or interest on the BAM Surplus Notes may be made without the approval of the NYDFS.
During 2025, HG Global received cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $35 million. Of these payments, $24 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, less than $1 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $11 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
During 2024, HG Global received cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $30 million. Of these payments, $21 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $1 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $8 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
During 2023, HG Global received a cash payment of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes of $27 million. Of this payment, $18 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $2 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $7 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the principal balance on the BAM Surplus Notes was $277 million and $301 million and total interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes was $214 million and $195 million, all at nominal value.
Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, the BAM Surplus Notes, including accrued interest receivable, were classified as intercompany notes carried at nominal value, which eliminated in consolidation. Upon deconsolidation, White Mountains elected the fair value option for the BAM Surplus Notes. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes was $339 million and $382 million. The decline was driven by a $38 million decrease in fair value and $35 million in cash payments of principal and interest, partially offset by $30 million of accrued interest. See “BAM Surplus Notes” under “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Fair Value Measurements” on page 88.
Competition/Pricing
Certain sectors of the municipal bond insurance industry are highly competitive. HG Re is only licensed to provide reinsurance to BAM. Accordingly, HG Re, through its reinsurance treaties with BAM, is indirectly exposed to this competition.
BAM’s primary competitor is Assured Guaranty Ltd. (“Assured”). BAM and Assured each seek to differentiate themselves through risk selection, financial strength ratings, claims paying resources and underwriting strategies. BAM believes it has a number of distinct competitive advantages, and that, over time, its mutual structure will deliver a cost of capital advantage relative to its stock company competitor.
Pricing (i.e., premium level) is affected by a number of factors, including interest rate levels, credit spreads, trading value and capture rate (i.e., the percentage of total interest savings captured in the form of insurance premium). All else being equal, pricing is generally higher when interest rates are higher, credit spreads are wider, BAM’s trading value is higher relative to competitors and the capture rate is higher.

Insured Portfolio
Under the FLRT, HG Re provides first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. For capital appreciation bonds, par is adjusted to the estimated equivalent par value for current interest paying bonds.

Insured Credit Surveillance
HG Re attends BAM’s monthly surveillance committee meetings. The surveillance committee evaluates the credit profile of each insured municipal bond on a periodic basis and places each insured municipal bond into one of four surveillance categories, the last two of which represent insured municipal bonds that are on BAM’s insured credit watchlist. Surveillance category 3 represents insured municipal bonds whose issuers are experiencing financial, legal or administrative issues causing overall credit quality deterioration, but whose probability of generating an insured loss is considered remote. Surveillance category 4 represents insured municipal bonds where a loss is expected or losses have been paid and have not been recovered or are not recoverable. As of December 31, 2025, BAM had assigned one credit to surveillance category 3. BAM has not assigned any credits to surveillance category 4 since inception.
Insured municipal bonds on the watchlist are monitored closely and are subject to BAM’s distressed credit management procedures, including a remediation plan developed in consultation with BAM’s legal counsel and consultants and HG Re. The objectives of any remediation plan are to address the problems the issuer is facing, to address any external factors impacting the credit, to ensure that creditors’ rights are enforced and to cure any breaches that may have occurred with respect to any credit triggers or covenants. BAM may work with other insurers, municipal bondholders and/or interested parties on remediation efforts, as applicable.

KUDU
Overview
Kudu provides capital solutions for boutique asset and wealth managers for a variety of purposes including generational ownership transfers, management buyouts, acquisition and growth finance and legacy partner liquidity. Kudu also provides strategic advice to managers from time to time. Kudu’s capital solutions are generally structured as noncontrolling equity interests in the form of revenue and earnings participation contracts (“Participation Contracts”) and designed to generate immediate cash yields.
Kudu expects to fund new capital deployments predominantly through excess operating cash flows, recycling of certain sales transaction proceeds, and available debt capacity, with additional equity contributions from White Mountains and other existing investors as needed.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains reported $1,402 million and $1,108 million of total assets and $955 million and $792 million of total equity related to Kudu. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 91.2% and 90.4% of Kudu’s basic units outstanding (77.9% and 77.0% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives) and reported $141 million and $128 million of noncontrolling interests related to Kudu.
Portfolio
As of December 31, 2025, Kudu had deployed $1.2 billion, including transaction costs, into 30 asset and wealth management firms globally, including three that have been exited. As of December 31, 2025, Kudu’s asset and wealth management firms had combined assets under management of approximately $153 billion, spanning a range of asset classes including real estate, wealth management, hedge funds, private equity and alternative credit strategies. Since inception, Kudu’s capital was deployed at an initial average gross cash yield of 9.3% based on expected cash in the first year following deployment.
Kudu’s philosophy is to partner with asset and wealth management firms that exhibit strong cash flow generation and growth. Kudu seeks to provide its solutions across a diverse mix of investment strategies and asset classes in the middle market.
Kudu’s average capital deployment to date has been approximately $39 million, with a range from $14 million to $81 million. Apportioned by manager type, Kudu’s portfolio as of December 31, 2025 was deployed 35% in alternatives, 44% in private capital, 14% in wealth management and 7% in traditional asset management. Kudu prioritizes the private capital segment as the underlying clients of these firms tend to be locked-up for an extended period, which can provide stability of revenues in a potential market downturn.
Kudu is geographically diversified with portfolio companies headquartered in the United States and internationally.

DISTINGUISHED
Overview
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished (the “Distinguished Transaction”). See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
Distinguished is a full-service MGA and program administrator for specialty property and casualty insurance. Distinguished places insurance across a diversified portfolio of programs broadly grouped into two verticals. The ScaleCo vertical consists of established programs, primarily focused on real estate and hospitality end markets. The GrowthCo vertical consists of start-up programs, focused on a diversified set of specialty property and casualty insurance products across multiple industries. On behalf of its insurance carrier partners, Distinguished typically manages all aspects of the placement process, including product development, marketing, underwriting and policy issuance. Distinguished earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Distinguished does not retain insurance risk.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains reported $735 million of total assets and $428 million of total equity related to Distinguished. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 55.5% of the basic units outstanding of Distinguished (43.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives) and reported $132 million of redeemable noncontrolling interests and $74 million of nonredeemable noncontrolling interests related to Distinguished.
Marketing and Distribution
Distinguished is an MGA and program administrator with delegated binding authorities, and as such, is generally dependent on its carrier partners to bear the insurance risk on the programs designed and underwritten by Distinguished. Distinguished typically expands its programs when market conditions are attractive and shrinks its programs when market conditions are challenging. This practice has led to longstanding insurance carrier partner relationships, in some cases over 20 years. The insurance risk for Distinguished’s programs is supported by 17 insurance carrier partners, with the top three of these carrier partners accounting for 61% of Distinguished’s managed premiums for the year ended December 31, 2025, which includes periods prior to White Mountains’s ownership. White Mountains believes this information is useful in understanding the overall diversification in Distinguished’s capacity.
Distinguished primarily relies on third-party agents and brokers as its sales channel. Substantially all of Distinguished’s products are distributed through third-party agents and brokers who have the principal relationships with policyholders. Agents and brokers have significant influence over renewals, and thus Distinguished’s business model is dependent on its relationships with, and the success of, the agents and brokers with whom Distinguished does business. Distinguished’s programs are supported by over 2,000 agents and brokers, with the top three firms accounting for 10% of Distinguished’s managed premiums for the year ended December 31, 2025, which includes periods prior to White Mountains’s ownership. White Mountains believes this information is useful in understanding the overall diversification in Distinguished’s distribution base.
Competition
Distinguished operates in a highly competitive property and casualty insurance intermediary industry. Competitors are differentiated based on price, conditions of coverage, loss ratio performance, quality of service, technology and other factors. Distinguished’s primary competitors are typically specialty insurance distribution and underwriting businesses and their agents.
Managed Premiums and Commission and Fee Revenues
Managed premiums, which represent the total premiums placed by Distinguished, were $188 million for the period from September 2, 2025, the date of acquisition, through December 31, 2025. The following table presents Distinguished’s managed premiums and commission and fee revenues by vertical for the period from September 2, 2025 through December 31, 2025.

|  | September 2, 2025 - December 31, 2025
Millions |  | Managed Premiums |  | Commission and Fee Revenues

GrowthCo |  | 46.8 |  |  | 15.4 |
Total |  | $ | 187.9 |  |  | $ | 56.7 |

18

For the year ended December 31, 2025, Distinguished’s total managed premiums were $568 million, which increased 6% compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. This includes periods prior to White Mountains’s ownership of Distinguished, which White Mountains believes is useful in understanding the overall size and growth in Distinguished’s premium base.
OTHER OPERATIONS
Overview
White Mountains’s Other Operations consists of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, WM Capital, its other intermediate holding companies, its wholly-owned investment management subsidiary, WM Advisors, investment assets managed by WM Advisors, its interests in the Bamboo SPV, MediaAlpha, PassportCard/DavidShield, BroadStreet, Elementum, WTM Partners, Enterprise Solutions, the Bamboo CRVs, Other Operating Businesses and certain other assets.
WM Advisors
As of December 31, 2025, WM Advisors managed and/or provided oversight and administration for substantially all of White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments, short-term investments, common equity securities and other long-term investments.
Bamboo
On January 2, 2024, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Bamboo. On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the sale of a controlling financial interest in WM Pierce Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Bamboo MGA (collectively, the "Bamboo Group"), to affiliates of funds advised by CVC Capital Partners (“CVC”), pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement dated October 2, 2025 (the "Bamboo SPA"). Under the terms of the Bamboo SPA, White Mountains sold approximately 77.3% of its equity interest in Bamboo for net cash proceeds at closing of $848 million and retained an indirect equity interest valued at $250 million (the “Bamboo Sale Transaction”). White Mountains’s indirect equity interest is held through the Bamboo SPV. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F- 19.
As a result of the Bamboo Sale Transaction, White Mountains deconsolidated the Bamboo Group on December 5, 2025, and Bamboo is no longer a reportable segment. Through December 5, 2025, Bamboo’s results of operations are presented within the Bamboo segment. White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the Bamboo SPV is accounted for at fair value in other long-term investments within Other Operations. The Bamboo Group’s assets and liabilities have been presented as held for sale as of December 31, 2024. See Note 20 — “Held for Sale” on page F-79.
Bamboo is a capital-light, tech- and data-enabled insurance distribution platform providing homeowners’ insurance and related products to the residential property market in California and, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, in Texas. Bamboo operates primarily through Bamboo MGA, its full-service MGA business, where the company manages all aspects of the placement process on behalf of its fronting and reinsurance carrier partners (“Capacity Providers”), including product development, marketing, underwriting, policy issuance and claims oversight, and it earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Bamboo MGA offers both admitted and non-admitted products. Under its capacity agreements, Bamboo MGA’s commission levels are based on a sliding scale tied primarily to its attritional loss ratio. Bamboo also operates two separate but integrated businesses: (i) a retail agency, within Bamboo MGA, offering ancillary products (e.g., flood, earthquake) on behalf of third parties and (ii) Ide8 Re, Inc. (the “Bamboo Captive”), a U.S.-domiciled captive reinsurer that participates in the underwriting risk of Bamboo’s MGA programs to align interests with Capacity Providers.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had a 27.9% limited partnership interest in the Bamboo SPV. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 17.2% of the basic units outstanding of Bamboo (14.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives) on a look-through basis. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of White Mountains’s interest in the Bamboo SPV was $250 million.

MediaAlpha
MediaAlpha is a marketing technology company. It operates a transparent and efficient customer acquisition technology platform that facilitates real-time transactions between buyers and sellers of consumer referrals (i.e., clicks, calls and leads), primarily in the property & casualty, health and life insurance verticals. MediaAlpha generates revenue by earning a fee for each consumer referral sold on its platform. A transaction becomes payable only on a qualifying consumer action, and is not contingent on the sale of a product to the consumer.
White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha is accounted for at fair value based on the publicly traded share price of MediaAlpha’s common stock and is presented as a separate line item on the balance sheet.
During the second quarter of 2024, MediaAlpha completed a secondary offering of 7.6 million shares at $19.00 per share ($18.24 per share net of underwriting fees). In the secondary offering, White Mountains sold 5.0 million shares for net proceeds of $91.2 million. During the second quarter of 2023, White Mountains completed a tender offer to purchase 5.9 million additional shares of MediaAlpha at a purchase price of $10.00 per share.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 17.9 million shares of MediaAlpha, representing a 27.4% basic ownership interest based on the total class A and class B common shares outstanding in MediaAlpha’s Report on Form 10-Q dated October 29, 2025. At the December 31, 2025 share price of $12.95, the fair value of White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha was $231 million. As of December 31, 2024, White Mountains owned 17.9 million shares of MediaAlpha, representing a 26.6% basic ownership interest. At the December 31, 2024 share price of $11.29, the fair value of White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha was $202 million.
PassportCard/DavidShield
PassportCard/DavidShield is an international MGA specializing in leisure travel insurance and global expatriate medical insurance. PassportCard/DavidShield delivers digitally-enabled insurance solutions that provide real time funding for covered medical expenses at the point of care.
PassportCard/DavidShield writes two principal product lines: (i) leisure travel insurance (“PassportCard”) and (ii) comprehensive expatriate medical services (“DavidShield”). PassportCard/DavidShield offers these products to both individuals and organizations. Its principal markets include Israel (its home market) as well as the European Union and Australia – servicing over two million insured members in over 180 countries. In Israel, PassportCard/DavidShield operates through a wholly-owned insurance carrier that underwrites policies and cedes substantially all underwriting risk to its highly-rated reinsurance partners. Outside Israel, PassportCard/DavidShield places policies with licensed third-party insurance carriers. PassportCard/DavidShield earns commissions for the placement of policies with its insurance and reinsurance carrier partners and licensing fees for the use of its card-based technology. PassportCard/DavidShield distributes its products through brokers, strategic partnerships and direct-to-consumer digital channels.
There are a number of distinct advantages to the PassportCard/DavidShield insurance solutions that differentiate its business in the marketplace. PassportCard/DavidShield offers its members a proprietary, card-based platform that enables paperless claims processing and immediate payment authorization, reducing reliance on traditional reimbursement models. This technology-driven approach supports enhanced claims control, fraud mitigation and data-informed loss management, thereby contributing to competitive loss ratios for its reinsurance partners and a differentiated customer experience.
By leveraging the regulated payment capabilities and propriety infrastructure of a debit card model, PassportCard/DavidShield has been able to integrate its insurance services with personal travel-related payment functionality. In July 2025, PassportCard/DavidShield launched an integrated Travel Money Payment Card, a solution combining the insurance claims card with a personal travel-focused payment card that enables customers to manage both medical expenses and personal travel spending through the same card.
As a business based in Israel, PassportCard/DavidShield has been affected by the geopolitical environment in the Middle East. Following the events of October 7, 2023 and the resulting war in Gaza, PassportCard/DavidShield experienced a significant decline in revenues relating to its Israeli leisure travel segment. However, Israeli leisure travel revenues placed by PassportCard have gradually recovered and have now surpassed pre-war levels despite intermittent periods of increased geopolitical unrest in the region and reduced capacity from international airline carriers offering service to and from Israel. Meanwhile, the comprehensive expatriate medical insurance placed by DavidShield has remained largely unaffected by the geopolitical environment.
White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in PassportCard/DavidShield is accounted for at fair value within other long-term investments. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 53.8% basic ownership interest of PassportCard/DavidShield (51.5% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of White Mountains’s interest in PassportCard/DavidShield was $170 million and $150 million.

REGULATION
United States
Insurance Regulation
Distinguished is licensed in all 50 states as an insurance producer. The distribution of insurance products is a heavily regulated industry subject to regulation and supervision by state regulatory authorities. State insurance laws are often complex and generally grant broad discretion to supervisory authorities in adopting regulations and supervising regulated activities, which generally includes the licensing of insurance brokers and agents, intermediaries and third-party administrators. Our continuing ability to distribute insurance products in the states in which we currently operate is dependent upon our compliance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the regulatory authorities in each of these states.
White Mountains believes that Distinguished is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations pertaining to its business that would have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations in the event of non-compliance.
Rate Regulations
Nearly all states have insurance laws requiring personal property and casualty insurers to file rating plans, policy or coverage forms and other information with the state’s regulatory authority. In many cases, such rating plans and/or policy or coverage forms must be approved by the regulatory authority prior to use. The speed with which an insurer can change rates in response to competition or in response to increasing costs depends, in part, on whether the rating laws are (i) prior approval, (ii) file-and-use or (iii) use-and-file laws. In states with prior approval laws, the regulator must approve a rate before the insurer may use it. In states with file-and-use laws, the insurer does not have to wait for the regulator’s approval to use a rate, but the rate must be filed with the regulatory authority prior to being used. In states with use-and-file laws, the insurer must file rates within a certain period after the insurer begins to use them. Under all three types of rating laws, the regulator has the authority to disapprove a rate filing. While Distinguished is not an insurer, and thus not required to file its own rating plans with the state's regulatory authority, Distinguished’s commissions are derived from a percentage of the premium rates set by its insurance carrier partners in conjunction with state law, and the sustainability of Distinguished’s business is dependent on such rates.
Premium Accounts Held in Trust
Distinguished maintains trust accounts in order to comply with fiduciary requirements under U.S. state insurance laws and regulations relating to premium trust accounts. Under such laws, insurance agencies that do not make immediate remittances to counterparties (such as insurance companies, clients or other producers to which premium, commissions or other amounts are due from time to time) must segregate funds owed to such counterparties, and these funds must be held in trust for the insurance company, client or other relevant third-party payee. Distinguished’s use of trust accounts is routinely subject to audits by its insurance carrier partners and other external auditors.
Cybersecurity
Certain of our U.S. operations are subject to federal and state cybersecurity and data privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, and the NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation. These laws impose requirements relating to the protection of personal information, breach notification, governance, risk management and certification. Compliance with these requirements may increase operating costs, and violations may result in regulatory penalties, litigation and reputational harm.
Investment Regulation
Kudu Investment Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of Kudu, is an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under Section 203 of the United States Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
23

Bermuda
Insurance Regulation
The Insurance Act 1978 of Bermuda and related regulations, as amended (the “Insurance Act”), regulates the insurance
business of HG Re, a special purpose insurer, GAIL, Ark’s wholly-owned Class 4 insurance and reinsurance company and Outrigger Re Ltd., a special purpose insurer. Outrigger Re Ltd. is also registered as a segregated accounts company under the Bermuda Segregated Accounts Companies Act 2000, as amended (the “SAC Act”). The Insurance Act provides that no person may carry on any insurance business in or from within Bermuda unless registered as an insurer under the Insurance Act by the Bermuda Monetary Authority (“BMA”). The BMA, in deciding whether to grant registration, has broad discretion to act as it thinks fit in the public interest. From time to time, HG Re, GAIL and Outrigger Re Ltd. may apply for, and be granted, certain modifications to, or exemptions from, regulatory requirements, which may otherwise apply to them.
The Insurance Act imposes solvency and liquidity standards as well as auditing and reporting requirements and confers on the BMA powers to supervise, investigate and intervene in the affairs of insurance companies. The SAC Act stipulates its own solvency test for the declaration of dividends and distributions for segregated accounts, which takes into account the solvency of each segregated account individually, rather than the solvency of the company itself.
Classification
GAIL is registered as a Class 4 insurer. Class 4 insurers carry on general insurance business including excess liability business or property catastrophe, marine & energy, casualty and specialty reinsurance business and have a total statutory capital and surplus of not less than $100 million.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are insurers that carry on special purpose business. Special purpose business under the Insurance Act is insurance business under which an insurer fully collateralizes its liabilities to the insured persons through (i) the proceeds of any one or more of (a) a debt issuance where the repayment rights of the providers of such debt are subordinated to the rights of the person insured or (b) some other financing mechanism approved by the BMA; (ii) cash; and (iii) time deposits. Special purpose insurers may be registered to carry on either restricted special purpose business or unrestricted special purpose business. Restricted special purpose business is special purpose business conducted between a special purpose insurer and specific insureds approved by the BMA. Both HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are only able to carry on restricted purpose business.
Capital and Solvency Return
As a Class 4 insurer, GAIL is required to file, on an annual basis, a capital and solvency return in respect of its general business, which currently includes, among other items, a statutory economic balance sheet, a schedule of risk management, a catastrophe risk return, a schedule of loss triangles or reconciliation of net loss reserves (where applicable), a schedule of eligible capital and the Enhanced Capital Requirement (“ECR”) as calculated by the Bermuda Solvency and Capital Requirement (“BSCR”) model (or an approved internal model). The BSCR is a mathematical model designed to give the BMA robust methods for determining an insurer’s capital adequacy. Underlying the BSCR is the belief that all insurers should operate on an ongoing basis with a view to maintaining their capital at a prudent level in excess of the minimum solvency margin otherwise prescribed under the Insurance Act. The 2025 BSCR must be filed with the BMA before April 30, 2026; at this time, we believe GAIL will exceed the minimum amount required to be maintained under Bermuda law.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are also required to file annually with the BMA a statutory return which includes, among other matters, the statutory financial statements, a statement of control and changes of control, a solvency certificate, an annual statutory declaration, an own-risk assessment, alternative capital arrangements report, cyber risk management report and compliance with sanctions report.
Financial Condition Report
As a Class 4 insurer, GAIL is required to prepare and publish a financial condition report (“FCR”), which provides, among other things, details of measures governing the business operations, corporate governance framework and solvency and financial performance of the insurer/insurance group. The FCR will be made available in accordance with the requirements of the Insurance Act.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are not subject to this requirement.
24

Minimum Solvency Margin
As a general business insurer, GAIL is required to maintain statutory assets in excess of its statutory liabilities by an amount, equal to or greater than the prescribed minimum solvency margin. The minimum solvency margin that must be maintained by a Class 4 insurer is the greater of (i) $100 million, (ii) 50% of net premiums written (with a credit for reinsurance ceded not exceeding 25% of gross premiums), (iii) 15% of net aggregate loss and loss expense provisions and other insurance reserves or (iv) 25% of the ECR.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. must maintain a minimum solvency margin whereby their special purpose business assets must exceed their special purpose business liabilities by at least $1.
Enhanced Capital Requirement
As a Class 4 insurer, GAIL is required to maintain its available statutory economic capital and surplus at a level at least equal to its ECR. The ECR must at all times equal or exceed the insurer’s minimum solvency margin and may be adjusted in circumstances where the BMA concludes that the insurer’s risk profile deviates significantly from the assumptions underlying its ECR or the insurer’s assessment of its risk management policies and practices used to calculate the ECR applicable to it. While not specifically referred to in the Insurance Act, the BMA has also established a target capital level for each Class 4 insurer equal to 120% of the respective ECR. While a Class 4 insurer is not currently required to maintain its statutory economic capital and surplus at this level, the target capital level serves as an early warning tool for the BMA and failure to maintain statutory capital at least equal to the target capital level will likely result in increased BMA regulatory oversight.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are not subject to this requirement.
Minimum Liquidity Ratio
The Insurance Act provides a minimum liquidity ratio for general business insurers such as GAIL. An insurer engaged in general business is required to maintain the value of its relevant assets at not less than 75% of the amount of its relevant liabilities. Relevant assets include, but are not limited to, cash and time deposits, quoted investments, unquoted bonds and debentures, investment income due and accrued, accounts and premiums receivable, insurance and reinsurance balances receivable and funds held by ceding reinsurers. Relevant liabilities include, but are not limited to, general business insurance reserves and total other liabilities less deferred income tax and sundry liabilities, letters of credit and guarantees.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are not subject to this requirement.
Eligible Capital
As a Class 4 insurer, GAIL must maintain available capital in accordance with a “three-tiered capital system” to enable the BMA to better assess the quality of an insurer’s capital resources. All capital instruments are classified as either basic or ancillary capital, which in turn are classified into one of three tiers (Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3) based on their “loss absorbency” characteristics. Eligibility limits are then applied to each tier in determining the amounts eligible to cover regulatory capital requirement levels. Under this regime, not more than certain specified percentages of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital may be used to satisfy the Class 4 insurers' minimum solvency margin, ECR requirements and target capital level.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are not subject to this requirement.
Restrictions on Dividends and Reductions of Capital
As a Class 4 insurer, GAIL is prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends if in breach of the required minimum solvency margin or minimum liquidity ratio (the “Relevant Margins”) or if the declaration or payment of such dividend would cause the insurer to fail to meet the Relevant Margins. Further, Class 4 insurers are prohibited from declaring or paying in any financial year dividends of more than 25% of its total statutory capital and surplus (as shown on its previous financial year’s statutory balance sheet) unless it files (at least seven days before payment of such dividends) with the BMA an affidavit stating that it will continue to meet its Relevant Margins. Class 4 insurers must obtain the BMA’s prior approval for a reduction of 15% or more of the total statutory capital as set forth in its previous year’s financial statements. These restrictions on dividends under the Insurance Act are in addition to the solvency requirements under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, as amended (the “Companies Act”). See “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES — Dividend Capacity” on page 81 for further discussion.
As special purpose insurers, HG Re and Outrigger Re Ltd. are not required to obtain the BMA’s prior approval in connection with any reduction of total statutory capital but are prohibited from declaring or paying a dividend if they are in breach of their minimum solvency margin or if the declaration or payment of such dividend would cause such a breach. The solvency test for the declaration of dividends by WM Outrigger Re, as a segregated account, is evaluated based upon the solvency of WM Outrigger Re, rather than the solvency of Outrigger Re Ltd. as a whole.
25

Insurance Code of Conduct and Insurance Sector Operational Cyber Risk Management Code of Conduct
All Bermuda insurers are required to comply with the BMA’s Insurance Code of Conduct, which establishes duties, requirements and standards to be complied with to ensure each insurer implements sound corporate governance, risk management and internal controls. Failure to comply with these requirements will be a factor taken into account by the BMA in determining whether an insurer is conducting its business in a sound and prudent manner under the Insurance Act and, in the case of GAIL, in calculating the operational risk charge applicable in accordance with the insurer's BSCR model (or an approved internal model).
All Bermuda insurers are also required to comply with the BMA’s Insurance Sector Operational Cyber Risk Management Code of Conduct, which establishes duties, requirements and standards to be complied with by each insurer in relation to operational cyber risk management.
Powers of Investigation, Intervention and Obtaining Information
The BMA has certain powers of investigation and intervention relating to insurers and their holding companies, subsidiaries and other affiliates, which it may exercise in the interest of such insurer’s policyholders or if there is any risk of insolvency or of a breach of the Insurance Act or the insurer’s license conditions. The BMA may cancel an insurer’s registration on certain grounds specified in the Insurance Act.
Notification of Cyber Reporting Events
Every insurer subject to the Insurance Act must notify the BMA of certain cybersecurity events and provide follow-up reporting. Failure to comply may result in regulatory action.
Policyholder Priority
In the event of a liquidation or winding up of an insurer, policyholders’ liabilities receive payment ahead of general unsecured creditors. Subject to the prior payment of preferential debts under the Employment Act 2000 and the Companies Act, the insurance debts of an insurer must be paid in priority to all other unsecured debts of the insurer.
Certain Other Bermuda Law Considerations
The Company is an exempted company registered under the Companies Act. As a result, the Company is required to comply with the provisions of the Companies Act regulating the payment of dividends and making of distributions from contributed surplus. A company is prohibited from declaring or paying a dividend, or making a distribution out of contributed surplus, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that:
(1) the company is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due; or
(2) the realizable value of the company’s assets would thereby be less than its liabilities.
In addition, the Companies Act regulates return of capital, reduction of capital and any purchase or redemption of shares by the Company.
The Economic Substance Act 2018, as amended (“ESA”) impacts every Bermuda registered entity engaged in a “relevant activity,” requiring impacted entities to maintain a substantial economic presence in Bermuda and to satisfy economic substance requirements. Under the ESA, insurance or holding entity activities (both as defined in the ESA and the Economic Substance Regulations 2018, as amended) are relevant activities. To the extent that the ESA applies to any of our Bermuda entities, we are required to demonstrate compliance with economic substance requirements by filing an annual economic substance declaration with the Bermuda Registrar of Companies. Any entity that must satisfy economic substance requirements but fails to do so could face automatic disclosure to competent authorities in the European Union of the information filed by the entity with the Bermuda Registrar of Companies in connection with the economic substance requirements. Additionally, a company may also face penalties, restrictions or regulation of its business activities and may be struck off as a registered entity in Bermuda for failure to satisfy economic substance requirements. The Company believes it complies with all of the applicable laws and regulations pertaining to economic substance that would have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations in the event of non-compliance.
26

United Kingdom
PRA and FCA Regulation
As an insurer in the United Kingdom, Ark is dual-regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) and the Prudential Regulation Authority (the “PRA”) (collectively, the “U.K. Regulators”). The PRA currently has ultimate responsibility for the prudential supervision of financial services in the United Kingdom. The FCA has responsibility for market conduct regulation. The U.K. Regulators regulate insurers, insurance intermediaries and Lloyd’s. Both the PRA and FCA have substantial powers of intervention in relation to regulated firms.
Lloyd’s Regulation
Lloyd’s as a whole is authorized by the PRA and regulated by both the FCA and the PRA. Lloyd’s is required to implement certain rules prescribed by the PRA and by the FCA; such rules are to be implemented by Lloyd’s pursuant to its powers under the Lloyd’s Act 1982 relating to the operation of the Lloyd’s market. Lloyd’s prescribes, in respect of its managing agents and corporate and individual members, certain minimum standards relating to their management and control, solvency and various other requirements. If it appears to either the PRA or the FCA that either Lloyd’s is not fulfilling its delegated regulatory responsibilities or that managing agents are not complying with the applicable regulatory rules and guidance, the PRA or the FCA may intervene at their discretion.
Lloyd’s permits its members to underwrite insurance risks through Lloyd’s syndicates. Members of Lloyd’s may participate in a syndicate for one or more underwriting year(s) by providing capital to support the syndicate’s underwriting. All syndicates are managed by Lloyd’s approved managing agents. Managing agents receive fees and profit commissions in respect of the underwriting and administrative services they provide to the syndicates.
General
The operations of ASML, Ark’s wholly-owned Lloyd’s managing agent, are subject to oversight by Lloyd’s, through the Lloyd’s Council. ASML’s business plan for the Syndicates, including maximum stamp capacity, requires annual approval from Lloyd’s. Stamp capacity is a measure of the amount of net premium (premiums written less acquisition costs) that a syndicate is authorized by Lloyd’s to write. Lloyd’s may require changes to any business plan presented to it or additional capital to be provided to support the underwriting plan. Lloyd’s approved stamp capacity in 2026 for Syndicate 4020, including ACSN 3832, is £850 million ($1,148 million based upon the foreign currency exchange spot rate as of December 31, 2025) and for Syndicate 3902 is £250 million ($338 million based upon the foreign currency exchange spot rate as of December 31, 2025). The Syndicates are supported by capital provided through ACML, Ark’s wholly-owned Lloyd’s corporate member.
Ark has deposited certain assets with Lloyd’s to support ACML’s underwriting business at Lloyd’s. Dividends from a Lloyd’s managing agent or a member of Lloyd’s can be declared and paid provided the relevant syndicate has sufficient profits available for distribution subject to Lloyd’s solvency requirements. By entering into a membership agreement with Lloyd’s, ACML has undertaken to comply with all Lloyd’s bye-laws and regulations as well as the provisions of the Lloyd’s Acts and the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended by the Financial Services Act 2012.
Capital Requirements
The underwriting capacity of a member of Lloyd’s must be supported by a deposit in the form of cash, securities or letters of credit in an amount determined under the capital adequacy regime of the U.K.’s PRA. The amount of such deposit is calculated for each member through the completion of an annual capital adequacy exercise. Under these requirements, Lloyd’s must demonstrate that each member has sufficient assets to meet its underwriting liabilities plus a required solvency margin. The required amount of Funds at Lloyd’s is determined by Lloyd’s based on each syndicate’s solvency and capital requirement as calculated through its internal model.
Intervention Powers
The Lloyd’s Council has wide discretionary powers to regulate members’ underwriting at Lloyd’s. It may, for instance, withdraw a member’s permission to underwrite business or to underwrite a particular class of business. The Lloyd’s Council may change the basis on which syndicate expenses are allocated or vary the Funds at Lloyd’s requirements or the investment criteria applicable to the provision of Funds at Lloyd’s. Exercising any of these powers might affect the return on the member’s participation in a given underwriting year. If a member of Lloyd’s is unable to pay its debts to policyholders, the member may obtain financial assistance from the Lloyd’s Central Fund, which in many respects acts as an equivalent to a state guaranty fund in the United States. If Lloyd’s determines that the Central Fund needs to be increased, it has the power to assess premium levies on current members of Lloyd’s. The Lloyd’s Council has discretion to call or assess up to 3% of a member’s underwriting capacity in any one year as a Central Fund contribution.
While not currently material to Ark’s operations, the Syndicates also access insurance business from the European Economic Area through the London Branch of Lloyd’s Insurance Company. Lloyd’s Insurance Company is authorized and regulated by the National Bank of Belgium and regulated by the Financial Services and Markets Authority.
27

U.K. Domestic Prudential Regime
Following the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, U.K.-authorized insurers are subject to the U.K.’s domestic prudential regime administered by the PRA. The regime, which evolved from the EU Solvency II framework, establishes risk-based capital and governance requirements. Lloyd’s must satisfy PRA solvency requirements based on its internal model, and Ark’s underwriting capacity at Lloyd’s is subject to these PRA and Lloyd’s capital standards.
Cybersecurity
Ark is subject to U.K. data protection laws, including the U.K. General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018, and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation. These laws impose requirements relating to the processing of personal data, including breach notification, data subject rights, governance controls and restrictions on cross-border data transfers. Violations may result in significant administrative fines and other regulatory action.
Climate Change
In response to PRA climate change risk management guidelines, Ark has established a climate change working group and has undertaken a climate change risk assessment. The risk assessment highlighted regulatory, claims, underwriting and investment risks associated with climate change. Ark regularly analyzes climate change risk as part of its risk management framework. Ark also engages with industry peers through the Lloyd’s Climate Change market group. Ark has assigned its Chief Risk Officer responsibility under the PRA Senior Insurance Managers Regime for climate change risk. The Chief Risk Officer reports to the Ark Board on climate change matters.
General
Change of Control
The jurisdictions in which White Mountains operates have laws and regulations that require regulatory approval of a change of control. Where such laws apply, there can be no effective change in our control (or in the control of some or our subsidiaries) unless the person seeking to acquire control has filed a statement with the regulators and obtained prior approval for the proposed change.
RATINGS
Insurance companies are evaluated by various rating agencies in order to measure each company’s financial strength. Higher ratings generally indicate stronger financial stability and claims paying ability. White Mountains believes that strong ratings are important factors in the marketing and sale of insurance products and services to agents, consumers and ceding companies.
As of February 27, 2026, each of Lloyd’s Syndicates 4020 and 3902 benefits from the financial strength rating of “A+/stable” by A.M. Best Company, Inc. (“A.M. Best”) and “AA-/stable” by Standard & Poor’s assigned to the Lloyd’s marketplace. “A+” is the second highest of 16 financial strength ratings assigned by A.M. Best and “AA-” is the fourth highest of 23 financial strength ratings assigned by Standard & Poor’s.
As of February 27, 2026, GAIL’s financial strength rating was “A/stable” by A.M. Best. “A” is the third highest of 16 financial strength ratings assigned by A.M. Best.
HUMAN CAPITAL
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains employed 1,648 people (consisting of 85 people at the Company, WM Capital, its other intermediate holding companies, WM Advisors, WTM Partners and HG Global, 300 people at Ark, 17 people at Kudu, 288 people at Distinguished and 958 people at its consolidated Other Operating Businesses).
White Mountains’s strength lies in its people, and it proactively supports each employee’s well-being and development. The Company’s Board of Directors receives periodic reporting on employee satisfaction and concerns and interacts with employees across White Mountains. White Mountains has an inclusive, team-oriented culture in which all employees are treated with respect. Under the guidelines of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct, it is firmly committed to providing equal employment opportunities. White Mountains values diversity of backgrounds, experiences and ideas, which it believes fosters more engaging discussions, stronger collaboration and better company performance. White Mountains invests in the professional development of its workforce and is committed to the long-term development of its workforce and the cultivation of its next generation of leaders.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The information contained in this report may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. See “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS” on page 101 for specific important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed below.
Risks Related to White Mountains
We have successfully created shareholder value through acquisitions and dispositions. We may not be able to continue to create shareholder value through such transactions in the future, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
In past years, we have completed numerous acquisitions and dispositions, many of which have contributed significantly to creating shareholder value. Failure to identify and complete future acquisitions and dispositions could limit our ability to create shareholder value. Even if we were to identify and complete future acquisitions and dispositions, there is no assurance that such transactions will ultimately achieve their anticipated benefits, and such transactions could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
If we are required to write down goodwill and other intangible assets, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
As of December 31, 2025, we had total goodwill and other intangible assets of $1,020 million on our consolidated balance sheet, of which $578 million relates to Distinguished and $293 million relates to Ark.
We periodically review goodwill and other intangible assets to determine whether an impairment has occurred. An impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets occurs when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of goodwill or other intangible assets for impairment requires the use of significant judgment in determining fair value, including assumptions about the future performance of the associated business. Our consolidated operating companies may experience unexpected circumstances that cause future performance to differ significantly from those assumptions, which could cause us to conclude that goodwill and other intangible assets are impaired. Such an impairment would result in a non-cash charge to income that could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
29

Risks Related to Ark/WM Outrigger’s Business and Industry
Unpredictable catastrophic events could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Ark underwrites insurance and reinsurance policies that cover unpredictable catastrophic events all over the world. Ark has exposure to losses caused by natural disasters and other events such as hurricanes, windstorms, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes, tsunamis and severe weather. Catastrophes can also include large losses driven by public health crises, terrorist attacks, war and war-like actions, explosions, infrastructure failures and cyber attacks.
The extent of a catastrophe loss is a function of both the severity of the event and the total amount of insured exposure to the event, as well as the coverage provided to customers. Increases in the value and concentration of insured property or insured employees, the effects of inflation, changes in weather patterns and increased terrorism and war and war-like actions could increase the future frequency and/or severity of claims from catastrophic events. Climate change, which is characterized by higher temperatures, sea level rise and more extreme weather events including droughts, heavy storms, wildfires and stronger hurricanes, increases the frequency and severity of certain major natural catastrophes. There is also a growing threat of cyber risks due to the increasing interconnectivity of global systems. Claims from catastrophic events could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, following a large loss event, Ark could have diminished capacity to write new insurance and reinsurance policies due to reductions in its capital levels.
Ark seeks to manage its exposure to catastrophic losses by limiting and monitoring the aggregate insured value of policies in geographic areas with exposure to catastrophic events and by buying reinsurance. To manage, monitor and analyze insured values and potential losses, Ark utilizes proprietary and third-party catastrophe management software to estimate potential losses for many different catastrophe scenarios. Ark incorporates the physical risk of climate change in its underwriting process through sensitivity and stress testing of its catastrophe models, including increased frequency of U.S. windstorms and the implications of storm surge. Ark’s estimates of potential losses are dependent on many variables, including assumptions about storm intensity, storm surge, loss amplification, loss adjustment expenses and insurance-to-value in the aftermath of weather-related catastrophes. In addition, Ark has to account for quality of data provided by insureds. Accordingly, if the assumptions are incorrect, the actual losses Ark might incur from a catastrophe could be materially different than the expectation of losses generated from modeled catastrophe scenarios, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Ark and its subsidiaries benefit from favorable financial strength ratings from A.M. Best, Standard & Poor’s and others, the deterioration of which could materially adversely affect its ability to conduct business and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Third-party rating agencies assess and rate the financial strength, including claims-paying ability, of insurers, reinsurers and the Lloyd’s marketplace. These ratings are based upon criteria established by the rating agencies and are subject to revision at any time at the sole discretion of the agencies. Some of the criteria relate to general economic conditions and other circumstances outside the rated company’s control. These financial strength ratings are used by policyholders, agents and brokers to assess the suitability of insurers and reinsurers as business counterparties and are an important factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance and reinsurance companies. Rating agencies periodically evaluate Ark to confirm that it continues to meet the criteria of the rating previously assigned to it.
The maintenance of an “A-” or better financial strength rating is particularly important to Ark’s ability to write property and casualty insurance and reinsurance business in most markets. Ark writes insurance and reinsurance through Lloyd’s Syndicates 4020 and 3902, each of which benefits from the financial strength rating of “A+/stable” by A.M. Best and “AA-/stable” by Standard & Poor’s assigned to the Lloyd’s marketplace. GAIL, Ark’s wholly-owned Bermuda-based insurance and reinsurance company, has an “A/stable” financial strength rating by A.M. Best. See “RATINGS” on page 28.
A downgrade, withdrawal or negative watch/outlook of these financial strength ratings could severely limit or prevent Ark from writing new policies or renewing existing policies, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. A downgrade, withdrawal or negative watch/outlook of these financial strength ratings also could limit Ark’s ability to raise new debt or could cause new and certain existing debt to be costlier and/or have more restrictive conditions.
30

Ark may not adequately alleviate risk through reinsurance and retrocessional arrangements, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Ark attempts to limit its risk of loss through reinsurance and retrocessional arrangements. Retrocessional arrangements refer to reinsurance purchased by a reinsurer to cover its own risks assumed from ceding companies. The availability and cost of reinsurance and retrocessional protection is subject to market conditions, which are outside of Ark’s control. In addition, the coverage provided by Ark’s reinsurance and retrocessional arrangements may not cover certain of its future liabilities. As a result, Ark may not be able to adequately alleviate risk through these arrangements, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, due to various factors, including the price or availability of reinsurance or retrocessional coverage, Ark may decide to increase the amount of risk retained by purchasing less reinsurance. Such a determination has the effect of increasing Ark’s financial exposure to losses associated with risks that it underwrites and, in the event of significant losses associated with a given risk, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Purchasing reinsurance does not relieve Ark of its underlying obligations to policyholders or ceding companies. As a result, any inability to collect amounts due from reinsurers could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. The inability to collect amounts due from reinsurers, including Outrigger Re Ltd., can result from a number of scenarios, including: (i) reinsurers withholding payment due to a dispute, including coverage terms, adverse judicial rulings or failed arbitration, or other factors beyond Ark’s control; (ii) reinsurers becoming unable to pay amounts owed to Ark as a result of a deterioration in their financial condition; and (iii) in the case of Outrigger Re Ltd., losses exceeding amounts within the collateral trust accounts. While we currently believe the condition of Ark’s reinsurers is strong, it is possible that one or more of Ark’s reinsurers will be adversely affected by future significant losses or economic events causing them to be unable or unwilling to pay amounts owed.
The property and casualty insurance and reinsurance industries are highly competitive and cyclical, and Ark may not be able to compete effectively in the future, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The property and casualty insurance and reinsurance industries are highly competitive and have historically been cyclical, experiencing periods of severe price competition and less selective underwriting standards (soft markets) followed by periods of relatively high prices and more selective underwriting standards (hard markets). Ark competes with other Lloyd’s syndicates, London market participants and major U.S., Bermuda, European and other international insurance and reinsurance companies. Many of these competitors have greater financial resources, have more established long-term and continuing business relationships throughout the insurance and reinsurance industries and may have higher financial strength ratings, which can represent significant competitive advantages for them.
Soft primary insurance market conditions could lead to a significant reduction in reinsurance premium rates, less favorable contract terms and fewer submissions for Ark’s reinsurance underwriting capacity. The supply of reinsurance is also related to the level of reinsured losses and the level of industry capital which, in turn, may fluctuate in response to changes in rates of return earned in the reinsurance industry. As a result, the reinsurance industry historically has been cyclical, characterized by periods of intense price competition due to excess underwriting capacity, as well as periods when shortages of capacity permitted improvements in reinsurance rate levels and terms and conditions. In addition, the ease of entry into the reinsurance sector facilitates competition from third-party capital in the property catastrophe excess reinsurance line. This alternative capital provides collateralized property catastrophe protection in the form of catastrophe bonds, industry loss warranties, sidecars and other vehicles that facilitate the ability for non-reinsurance entities, such as hedge funds and pension funds, to compete for property catastrophe excess reinsurance business outside of the traditional treaty market.
We expect to continue to experience the effects of the insurance and reinsurance industries’ cyclicality. If Ark is unable to maintain its competitive position throughout soft and hard market cycles, its business may be adversely affected, and it may not be able to compete effectively in the future, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
31

Ark’s loss and LAE reserves may be inadequate to cover the ultimate liability for losses, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Ark maintains reserves to cover its estimated ultimate liabilities for loss and LAE. Loss and LAE reserves are typically comprised of (i) case reserves for reported claims and (ii) incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) reserves for losses that have occurred but for which claims have not yet been reported and for expected future development on case reserves. Loss and LAE reserves are estimates of what Ark believes the settlement and administration of claims will cost based on facts and circumstances then known. These estimates involve actuarial and claims assessments and require Ark to make a number of assumptions about future events that are subject to unexpected changes and are beyond Ark’s control, such as future trends in claim severity, emerging coverage issues, frequency, inflation, legislative and judicial changes, regulatory changes, adverse court rulings and other factors. Because of uncertainties associated with estimating ultimate loss and LAE reserves, we cannot be certain that Ark’s reserves are adequate. In the event that Ark’s reserves are insufficient to cover the actual loss and LAE, Ark may need to add to the reserves, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. For further discussion of our loss and LAE reserves, see “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Loss and LAE Reserves” on page 90.
Risks Related to HG Global’s Business and Industry
HG Re is only licensed to provide reinsurance to BAM. If BAM does not maintain its favorable financial strength rating from Standard & Poor’s, it could materially adversely affect HG Re’s business and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
HG Re is only licensed to provide reinsurance to BAM. Accordingly, HG Re, through its reinsurance treaties with BAM, is dependent on BAM’s ability to write municipal bond insurance policies. The maintenance of an “AA” or better financial strength rating from Standard & Poor’s is particularly important to BAM’s ability to conduct its business.
Third-party rating agencies assess and rate the financial strength of insurers, including claims-paying ability. These ratings are based upon criteria established by the rating agencies and are subject to revision at any time at the sole discretion of the rating agencies. Some of the criteria relate to general economic conditions and other circumstances outside the rated insurer’s control. The financial strength rating of Standard & Poor’s is used by outside parties to assess the suitability of BAM as a business counterparty and is an important factor in establishing BAM’s competitive position.
Standard & Poor’s periodically evaluates BAM to confirm that it continues to meet the criteria of the rating previously assigned to it. On June 6, 2017, Standard & Poor’s placed BAM on credit watch negative and initiated a detailed review of BAM’s financial strength rating. On June 26, 2017, Standard & Poor’s concluded its review and affirmed BAM’s “AA/stable” financial strength rating. During the time that BAM’s financial strength rating was placed on credit watch negative by Standard & Poor’s, it voluntarily withdrew from the marketplace and did not write any municipal bond insurance policies.
On July 11, 2025, Standard & Poor’s concluded its most recent review and affirmed BAM’s “AA/stable” financial strength rating. A downgrade, withdrawal or negative watch/outlook of BAM’s financial strength rating could severely limit or prevent BAM’s ability to write municipal bond insurance policies, which could materially adversely affect HG Re’s business, and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Certain sectors of the municipal bond insurance industry are highly competitive, and BAM may not be able to compete effectively in the future, which could materially adversely affect HG Re’s business and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Certain sectors of the municipal bond insurance industry are highly competitive. HG Re is only licensed to provide reinsurance to BAM. Accordingly, HG Re, through its reinsurance treaties with BAM, is indirectly exposed to this competition. BAM’s primary competitor is Assured, which also provides financial guarantees on non-municipal debt, including structured finance. BAM and Assured each seek to differentiate themselves through risk selection, financial strength ratings, claims paying resources and underwriting strategies. If BAM is unable to compete effectively against Assured, it could result in fewer policies issued, lower premium levels and less favorable policy terms and conditions, which could materially adversely affect HG Re’s business, and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
32

We are exposed to losses from municipal bond insurance written by BAM through our reinsurance treaties between HG Re and BAM, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Our reinsurance subsidiary, HG Re, provides (i) first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM and (ii) last-dollar protection for exposures on municipal bonds insured by BAM in excess of the NYDFS single issuer limits. Should the policies assumed from BAM experience insured losses for any reason, this could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
If BAM does not pay some or all of the principal and interest due on the BAM Surplus Notes, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned BAM Surplus Notes with a principal balance of $277 million and accrued interest receivable of $214 million, both at nominal value. The BAM Surplus Notes were carried at a fair value of $339 million as of December 31, 2025. No payment of principal or interest on the BAM Surplus Notes may be made without the approval of the NYDFS. Under its agreements with HG Global, BAM is required to seek regulatory approval to pay principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes only to the extent that its capital resources continue to support its outstanding obligations, business plan and rating. It is unlikely that BAM would pay principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes if such payments could lead to a rating downgrade. In 2025, the NYDFS approved cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $35 million. We cannot guarantee that the NYDFS will approve payments on the BAM Surplus Notes in the future.
BAM’s ability to repay principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes is dependent on a number of factors, many of which are beyond BAM’s control, including primary municipal bond issuance levels, insured penetration rates, interest rate levels, credit spreads, trading value, capture rate and market share. BAM also could incur significant losses from the municipal bonds it insures. If BAM does not repay some or all of the principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We may be subject to volatility from the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes was $339 million using a discounted cash flow analysis. White Mountains’s reported book value per share may be subject to volatility in the future, as the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes under the discounted cash flow analysis could be volatile. For example, in 2025 White Mountains recognized a decrease of $38 million in the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes. We use judgment in selecting the key inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis. With a discounted cash flow analysis, small changes to key inputs may result in significant changes to fair value. See “BAM Surplus Notes” under “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Fair Value Measurements” on page 88 for a description of the methodology and key inputs we use to determine the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes. Given the inherent subjectivity and uncertainty in the methodology and inputs used to determine the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes, the value established using this methodology may not be fully realized. Should there be a significant decrease in the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The municipal bond industry is highly regulated at the federal and state level, and certain municipal bonds enjoy preferential tax treatment. Significant changes to these regulations or to the tax treatment of municipal bonds could materially adversely affect BAM’s and HG Re’s business and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The municipal bond market is subject to regulations at both the federal and state level, and certain municipal bonds enjoy preferential tax treatment. Changes to such regulations or to the tax treatment of municipal bonds could affect the issuance of certain municipal bonds or could reduce the attractiveness of and market for BAM’s financial guarantee solutions. This could decrease the amount of bond insurance issued by BAM and thereby reduce payments on the BAM Surplus Notes and risk premiums ceded to HG Re, both of which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Kudu’s Business and Industry
Kudu’s financial performance is dependent upon its clients’ asset and performance-based fees, which are subject to a variety of economic, market and other risks. Additionally, Kudu’s managers participate in a highly competitive, highly regulated industry. Kudu’s managers may not be able to compete effectively in the future, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Kudu provides capital solutions for asset and wealth management firms through Participation Contracts. Kudu’s managers generate their revenues and earnings by charging asset-based fees, which are typically a percentage of the value of the assets they manage for their clients, and/or performance-based fees, which are typically a portion of actual returns achieved for their clients above a target return. Much of the revenue that Kudu generates from its clients is subject to the same general economic and market risks that may affect our investment portfolio. See Risk Factors, “Our investment portfolio may suffer reduced returns or losses, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Adverse changes in equity markets, interest rates, debt markets or foreign currency exchange rates could result in significant losses to the value of our investment portfolio.” on page 35.
Additionally, Kudu’s managers participate in a highly competitive, highly regulated industry that subjects their operations to a number of other risks that are out of our control, including (i) changes in investor preference from the actively-managed investments offered by Kudu’s managers to passively-managed investments; (ii) the ability of Kudu’s managers to successfully attract new clients and retain existing ones; (iii) the ability of Kudu’s managers to avoid fee compression; (iv) the reliance of Kudu’s managers on a small number of key personnel; and (v) future changes to regulations that make Kudu’s managers’ businesses more cumbersome and expensive to operate. If Kudu’s managers are unable to compete effectively in the future, Kudu’s business may be materially adversely affected, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Risks Related to Distinguished’s Business and Industry
Distinguished’s commission revenues are dependent on many factors, some of which are beyond its control, including the pricing and profitability of certain segments of the property and casualty insurance industry, which is highly competitive and cyclical. Distinguished may not be able to compete effectively in the future, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Distinguished generates most of its revenues from commissions that are a portion of premiums charged by insurance companies to their insureds. Distinguished is an MGA and program administrator with delegated binding authorities, and as such, its carrier partners bear the insurance risk on the programs designed and underwritten by Distinguished. Should Distinguished fail to meet the profitability expectations of the carriers that underwrite the business it places, those carriers could choose to stop underwriting the business or reduce the commission rate they will pay for placement services, which could materially adversely affect Distinguished’s commission revenues and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Distinguished’s future commission revenues could also be materially adversely affected by other factors beyond its control, including (i) the increasing availability of capital markets-based products designed to replace traditional insurance and reinsurance products; (ii) growth in the direct-to-consumer sales channel at the expense of insurance intermediaries including agents and brokers; (iii) the percentage of premium insurance carriers will pay for placement services; (iv) the availability and cost of reinsurance; and (v) future trends in claim severity, emerging coverage issues, frequency, inflation, legislative and judicial changes, regulatory changes, adverse court rulings and other factors.
The property and casualty insurance industry is highly competitive and has historically been cyclical, experiencing periods of severe price competition and less selective underwriting standards (soft markets) followed by periods of relatively high prices and more selective underwriting standards (hard markets). The cyclicality of the property and casualty markets is beyond Distinguished’s control and could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition by reducing the commissions it receives for property and casualty insurance placed during soft markets.  We expect to continue to experience the effects of cyclicality. If Distinguished is unable to successfully manage the risks associated with soft markets, Distinguished’s business may be materially adversely affected, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
34

A substantial portion of Distinguished’s business is placed with one insurance carrier, and most of Distinguished’s business is placed with a small number of carriers. Any deterioration in the arrangements with its carriers could adversely affect Distinguished’s business, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Distinguished placed approximately 22% of its business with its single largest carrier during the year ended December 31, 2025. Distinguished placed approximately 61% of its business with its three largest carriers during the year ended December 31, 2025. Should any of these carriers reduce the volume of business accepted from Distinguished or adversely change the terms and conditions of placement, we cannot guarantee that Distinguished would be able to find other carriers to assume the business, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Distinguished primarily relies on third-party agents and brokers to distribute its products, and any deterioration in the relationships with these parties could adversely affect Distinguished’s business, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Substantially all of Distinguished’s products are distributed through third-party agents and brokers who have the principal relationships with policyholders. Agents and brokers have significant influence over renewals, and thus Distinguished’s business model is dependent on its relationships with, and the success of, the agents and brokers with whom Distinguished does business.
Because Distinguished primarily relies on third-party agents and brokers as its sales channel, any deterioration in the relationships with these parties or failure to provide competitive compensation could lead them to place less premium with Distinguished. Distinguished places a substantial portion of its premium through a limited number of agents and broker relationships. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the top three relationships accounted for 10% of Distinguished’s managed premiums. Loss of all or a substantial portion of the business provided by one or more of these agents and brokers could materially adversely affect Distinguished’s business, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Risks Related to Investments
Our investment portfolio may suffer reduced returns or losses, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Adverse changes in equity markets, interest rates, debt markets or foreign currency exchange rates could result in significant losses to the value of our investment portfolio.
Our investment portfolio primarily consists of fixed maturity investments, short-term investments, common equity securities, our investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments. Other long-term investments consist primarily of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, the Bamboo SPV, PassportCard/DavidShield, the BroadStreet SPV, private equity funds and hedge funds, a bank loan fund and Lloyd’s trust deposits. We invest to maximize long-term after-tax total returns while taking prudent levels of risk and maintaining a diversified portfolio subject to our investment guidelines and various regulatory restrictions. However, investing entails substantial risks. We may not achieve our investment objectives, and our investment performance may vary substantially over time. Losses or volatility in the equity or fixed income markets could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The fair market value of our investment portfolio is affected by general economic and market conditions that are outside of our control, including (i) fluctuations in equity market levels, interest rates, debt market levels and foreign currency exchange rates; (ii) public health crises, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, war and war-like actions and other outside events; and (iii) credit losses sustained by issuers. A significant decline in the equity markets such as that experienced from September 2008 to March 2009 could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition to causing declines in the fair value of securities that we own in our investment portfolio, public health crises, natural disasters, terrorist attacks and other outside events can adversely affect general commercial activity and the economies of many countries, which could materially adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations of the entities in which we have invested. For example, reductions of leisure travel, due to (i) travel restrictions imposed by governments due to the COVID-19 pandemic and (ii) fewer international flights in and out of Israel as a result of the regional conflict in the Middle East negatively impacted revenues at PassportCard/DavidShield. We are also exposed to changes in debt markets. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary policies, economic and political conditions and other factors beyond our control. In particular, a significant increase in interest rates, as experienced in 2022, could result in significant losses in the fair value of our investment portfolio. A significant increase in interest rates that causes severe losses could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, certain of our other long-term investments are not regularly traded in active investment markets and may be illiquid. These investments can experience volatility in their returns or valuations, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
35

We may be subject to volatility from our investment in MediaAlpha, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha is valued based on the publicly-traded share price of MediaAlpha’s common stock, which at the December 31, 2025 closing price of $12.95 per share was $231 million. As a result, White Mountains’s reported book value per share may be subject to future volatility, as the valuation of its investment in MediaAlpha is based on the publicly-traded share price of MediaAlpha’s common stock. Should there be a significant decrease in the publicly-traded share price of MediaAlpha’s common stock, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Our investment portfolio includes securities that do not have readily observable market prices. We use valuation methodologies that are inherently subjective and uncertain to value these securities. The values of securities established using these methodologies may never be realized, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned $1,814 million in securities, including Kudu’s Participation Contracts, the Bamboo SPV and PassportCard/DavidShield, that are not actively traded in public markets, do not have readily observable market prices and are classified as Level 3 investments in the GAAP fair value hierarchy. On a quarterly basis, we make a good faith determination of the fair value of our Level 3 investments in our GAAP financial statements using valuation techniques that are inherently subjective and uncertain.
In determining the GAAP fair value of these securities, we use judgment in selecting the fair value methodology and the significant inputs that are employed by that methodology for each such investment. See “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Fair Value Measurements” on page 87 for a description of the methodologies we use to determine the GAAP fair value of our investments without a readily observable market price. Given the inherent subjectivity and uncertainty in the methodologies we use to determine the fair value of our investments without a readily observable market price, the values of such investments established using these methodologies may never be realized, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Taxation
We may not meet the requirements of the five-year deferral from the Bermuda corporate income tax or the OECD Pillar Two Undertaxed Profits Rule, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
On December 27, 2023, Bermuda enacted a 15% corporate income tax that became effective on January 1, 2025. The Bermuda legislation defers the effective date for five years for Bermuda companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries, (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets and (iii) not have a consolidated Bermuda affiliate or Bermuda permanent establishment directly or indirectly owned by a parent entity that is subject to the Income Inclusion Rule of Pillar Two in any jurisdiction. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the Bermuda corporate income tax until January 1, 2030.
On December 15, 2022, European Union Member States voted to adopt the European Union Minimum Tax Directive (the “EU Minimum Tax Directive”) in conformity with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two initiative. The Pillar Two initiative includes a set of model rules that are generally designed to impose a top-up tax on a large multinational enterprise group to the extent that the group is not subject to an effective tax rate of at least 15% in each jurisdiction in which the group has a consolidated affiliate or permanent establishment. The EU Minimum Tax Directive required European Union Member States to enact conforming law by December 31, 2023. The main rule of the EU Minimum Tax Directive, the Income Inclusion Rule (“IIR”), was to become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023, while the Undertaxed Profits Rule (“UTPR”) was to become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2024. The EU Minimum Tax Directive also permits European Union Member States to elect to apply a Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (“QDMTT”) for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023.
On July 11, 2023, the United Kingdom enacted conforming Pillar Two legislation including the IIR and QDMTT. On March 20, 2025, the United Kingdom enacted legislation adopting the Pillar Two UTPR. Under the legislation, the effective date of the UTPR is deferred for five years to fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2029 for U.K. companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries and (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the U.K. UTPR until January 1, 2030.
On December 20, 2023, Luxemburg enacted conforming Pillar Two legislation including the IIR, UTPR and QDMTT. The Luxembourg legislation defers the effective date of the UTPR for five years to fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2029 for Luxembourg companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries and (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the Luxembourg UTPR until January 1, 2030.
The failure by White Mountains to meet the requirements of the five-year deferral under the Bermuda corporate income tax or the OECD Pillar Two UTPR could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
37

We may be treated as a PFIC, in which case a U.S. holder of our common shares could be subject to disadvantageous rules under U.S. federal income tax laws.
Significant potential adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences apply to any U.S. person who owns shares in a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”). In general, a non-U.S. corporation is classified as a PFIC for a taxable year in which, after taking into account the income and assets of the corporation and certain subsidiaries pursuant to certain “look-through” rules, either (i) 75% or more of its gross income is passive income or (ii) 50% or more of the average quarterly value of its gross assets is attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. If a corporation is treated as a PFIC for a taxable year, it is generally treated as a PFIC for all later taxable years. Passive income for PFIC purposes generally includes interest, dividends and other investment income, subject to certain exceptions.
While we believe that White Mountains should not currently be treated as a PFIC based upon the income and assets of White Mountains and the income and assets of its subsidiaries (taking into account certain applicable subsidiary “look-through” rules), there is no assurance that White Mountains will not become a PFIC in the future as a result of changes in law or regulations (or their application to White Mountains) or changes in our assets, income or business operations. Nor is there assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not successfully argue that White Mountains is now, or in the future may become, a PFIC.
If we are determined to be a PFIC, a U.S. person may be subject to less advantageous tax consequences upon the sale, exchange or receipt of dividends with respect to our common shares and may be required to pay U.S. federal income tax at ordinary income rates for gains and dividends, as well as an interest charge on certain “excess distributions.” Certain elections designed to mitigate the adverse consequences of owning shares in a PFIC, including a “Protective QEF Election,” may be available. If you are a U.S. person, we encourage you to consult your own tax advisor concerning the potential tax consequences to you under the PFIC rules.
The Company and certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries may become subject to U.S. tax, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The Company and our non-U.S. subsidiaries without U.S. branches operate in a manner such that none of these companies should be subject to U.S. tax (other than U.S. excise tax on insurance and reinsurance premium income attributable to insuring or reinsuring U.S. risks and U.S. withholding tax on some types of U.S. source investment income) because none of these companies should be treated as engaged in a trade or business within the United States. However, because there is considerable uncertainty as to the activities that constitute being engaged in a trade or business within the United States, we cannot be certain that the Internal Revenue Service will not contend successfully that the Company or its non-U.S. subsidiaries without U.S. branches are engaged in a trade or business in the United States. If the Company or any of its non-U.S. subsidiaries without U.S. branches were considered to be engaged in a trade or business in the United States, such entity could be subject to U.S. corporate income and branch profits taxes on the portion of its earnings effectively connected to such U.S. business, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Changes in tax laws or tax treaties could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
The income of our U.S. subsidiaries is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax and other taxes. The income of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is generally subject to a lower tax rate than that imposed by the United States. Certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries are eligible for the benefits of tax treaties between the United States and other countries. We believe our non-U.S. subsidiaries will continue to be eligible for treaty benefits. However, it is possible that factual changes or changes to U.S. tax laws or changes to tax treaties that presently apply to our non-U.S. subsidiaries could increase income subject to tax, or the tax rate on income, in the United States. Similarly, changes to the applicable tax laws, treaties or regulations of other countries could subject the income of members of our group to higher rates of tax outside the United States. Additionally, the base erosion and profit shifting (“BEPS”) project currently being undertaken by the OECD and the European Commission’s investigation into illegal state aid may result in changes to long standing tax principles. The Bermuda corporate income tax and the Pillar Two worldwide minimum tax currently being enacted around the world are examples of the effects of the BEPS project. Such changes in tax laws or tax treaties could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our non-U.S. subsidiaries are treated as CFCs and may subject a U.S. 10% shareholder of our common shares to disadvantageous rules under U.S. federal income tax laws.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) modified certain U.S. tax rules that apply to controlled foreign corporations (“CFCs”). As a result of these changes, each of our non-U.S. subsidiaries is treated as a CFC. If any of our shareholders is a “U.S. 10% shareholder” (as described below) that directly or indirectly owns stock in White Mountains, that shareholder must include in its taxable income each year its pro rata share of our CFC subsidiaries’ “subpart F income” and global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) for that year, even if no distributions are received by the U.S. 10% shareholder.
Due to changes made by the TCJA, a shareholder is treated as a U.S. 10% shareholder if the shareholder is a U.S. person who owns directly, indirectly or through constructive ownership rules 10% or more of either the voting power or the total value of our shares. As a result, a U.S. person that owns (directly, indirectly or through constructive ownership rules) 10% or more of our shares will generally be treated as a U.S. 10% shareholder of our CFC subsidiaries, notwithstanding the voting power restrictions of our shares. However, a person that is a U.S. 10% shareholder solely as a result of constructive ownership rules (i.e., such person does not directly or indirectly own stock of White Mountains) should not have a subpart F income inclusion or GILTI inclusion with respect to our CFC subsidiaries.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA reinstated the pre-TCJA rules for determining status as a U.S. 10% shareholder and made certain changes to the subpart F and GILTI rules (including renaming GILTI “net CFC tested income”), effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.
The OBBBA enacted a separate inclusion regime for a “foreign controlled U.S.” (“FCUS”) shareholder of a “foreign controlled foreign corporation” (“FCFC”). A FCUS shareholder of a FCFC must include in its taxable income each year its pro rata share of a FCFC’s subpart F income and CFC tested income for that year, even if no distributions are received by the FCUS shareholder. A FCUS shareholder is a U.S. person who owns more than 50% of a foreign corporation directly, indirectly or through certain constructive ownership rules. A FCFC is a foreign corporation (other than a CFC) where FCUS shareholders own more than 50% of the stock of the foreign corporation directly, indirectly or through certain constructive ownership rules. The enacted provisions apply to tax years of foreign corporations beginning after December 31, 2025.
If you are a U.S. person who might be a U.S. 10% shareholder or a FCUS shareholder, we encourage you to consult your own tax advisor concerning these rules.
Proposed regulations could subject U.S. persons who are shareholders to disadvantageous rules under U.S. federal income tax laws pertaining to “related person insurance income.”
Proposed regulations issued on January 24, 2022 address the subpart F “related person insurance income” (“RPII”) tax regime. The proposed regulations would expand the scope of relationships giving rise to RPII by treating intra-group reinsurance transactions as generating RPII if a non-U.S. parent entity of the group is majority owned by U.S. persons. If the proposed regulations are finalized as written, U.S. shareholders of the Company could be required to include in their taxable income a proportionate share of White Mountains’s RPII annually as subpart F income, even if no distributions are received by the U.S. shareholder.
The proposed regulations generally would apply to tax years of corporations beginning on or after the date on which finalized regulations are published in the Federal Register and to tax years of U.S. persons in which or with which those corporations' tax years end. We encourage shareholders who are U.S. persons to consult their own tax advisors concerning the proposed regulations.
Risks Related to Laws and Regulation
Regulation may have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.
We are subject to supervision and regulation by regulatory authorities in the various jurisdictions in which we conduct business, including state and national insurance regulators. Regulatory authorities have broad regulatory, supervisory and administrative powers relating to, among other things, data protection and data privacy, solvency standards, licensing, coverage requirements, policy rates and forms and the form and content of financial reports. Regulatory authorities continue to implement new or enhanced regulatory requirements. Regulatory authorities also may seek to exercise their supervisory or enforcement authority in new or more extensive ways. These actions, if they occur, could affect the competitive market and the way in which we conduct our business and manage our capital and could result in lower revenues and higher costs. As a result, such actions could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
39

Bermuda law differs from the laws in effect in the United States and may afford less protection to shareholders.
We are organized under the laws of Bermuda, and a significant portion of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for our shareholders to enforce court judgments obtained in the United States against us based on the civil liability provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the United States, either in Bermuda or in countries other than the United States where we have assets. In addition, there is some doubt as to whether the courts of Bermuda and other countries would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers based on the civil liabilities provisions of the federal or state securities laws of the United States or would hear actions against us or those persons based on those laws.
Our corporate affairs are governed by the Bermuda Companies Act. The Companies Act differs in some material respects from laws generally applicable to U.S. corporations and shareholders, including the provisions relating to interested directors, amalgamations, mergers and acquisitions, takeovers, shareholder lawsuits and indemnification of directors. Generally, the duties of directors and officers of a Bermuda company are owed to the company only. Shareholders of Bermuda companies generally do not have rights to take action against directors or officers of the company and may only do so in limited circumstances. Class actions and derivative actions are generally not available to shareholders under Bermuda law. The Bermuda courts, however, would ordinarily be expected to permit a shareholder to commence an action in the name of a company to remedy a wrong to the company where the act complained of is alleged to be beyond the corporate power of the company or illegal, or would result in the violation of the company’s memorandum of association or bye-laws. Furthermore, a Bermuda court would ordinarily be expected to permit a shareholder to commence an action that alleges a fraud against noncontrolling shareholders or, for instance, where an act requires the approval of a greater percentage of the company’s shareholders than that which actually approved it.
When the affairs of a company are being conducted in a manner that is oppressive or prejudicial to the interests of some part of the shareholders, one or more shareholders may apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda, which may make such order as it sees fit, including an order regulating the conduct of the company’s affairs in the future or ordering the purchase of the shares of any shareholders by other shareholders or by the company. Additionally, under our bye-laws and as permitted by Bermuda law, each shareholder has waived any claim or right of action against our directors or officers for any action taken by directors or officers in the performance of their duties, except for actions involving fraud or dishonesty. In addition, the rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Bermuda law are not as clearly established as under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in jurisdictions in the United States, particularly the State of Delaware. Therefore, our shareholders may have more difficulty protecting their interests than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction within the United States.
We could be materially adversely affected if our controls designed to ensure compliance with guidelines, policies, and legal and regulatory standards are not effective.
Our business is highly dependent on our ability to successfully execute a large number of transactions, many of which are complex. These processes are often subject to internal guidelines and policies and government regulation. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. If controls are not effective, it could lead to unanticipated risk exposure or damage to our reputation and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Other Risks Related to White Mountains and its Subsidiaries
We may be unable to adequately maintain our systems and safeguard the security of our data, which could adversely impact our ability to operate our business and cause reputational harm and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Because our business and operations rely on secure and efficient information technology systems, we depend on our ability, and the ability of certain third parties including vendors and business partners, to access our computer systems to perform necessary functions such as providing quotes and product pricing, billing and processing transactions, administering claims and reporting our financial results. The functioning of these systems may be impacted by any number of events, including power outages, natural and manmade catastrophes and cyber attacks. In the event we are unable to access any of our systems, or any third-party system that we rely upon, our ability to operate our business effectively may be significantly impaired.
Our business also depends upon our ability to securely process, store, transmit and safeguard confidential and proprietary information that is in our possession. This information includes confidential information relating to our business, as well as personally identifiable information (“PII”) and protected health information (“PHI”) belonging to our employees, customers, claimants and business partners. Because our systems may be vulnerable to a variety of forms of unauthorized access that could result in a data breach, including hackers, computer viruses and other cyber attacks, as well as breaches that result from dishonest employees, errors by employees or lost or stolen computer devices, we may not be able to protect the confidentiality of such information.
Third parties present an additional risk of cyber-related events. We outsource certain technological and business process functions to third-party providers. We rely on these third parties to maintain and store PII and PHI and other confidential information on their systems. We also routinely transmit such information by e-mail and other electronic means. Although we attempt to establish sufficient controls and secure capabilities to transmit such information and to prevent unauthorized disclosure, these controls may not be sufficient. Furthermore, third-party providers may not have appropriate controls in place to protect such information.
Our computer systems have been and will continue to be the target of cyber attacks, although we are not aware that we have experienced a material cybersecurity breach. We are also not aware of any third-party vendor having experienced a material cybersecurity breach that materially impacted our data. The risk of a cyber attack may increase, and we may experience more significant attacks in the future.
The risks identified above could expose us to data breaches, disruptions of service, financial losses and significant increases in compliance costs and reputational harm. In addition, a data breach could subject us to legal liability or regulatory action under data protection and privacy laws and regulations enacted by federal, state and foreign governments or other regulatory bodies. As a result, our ability to conduct our business could be adversely impacted, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We may suffer losses from unfavorable outcomes from litigation and other legal proceedings, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
From time to time we are subject to legal proceedings. In the event of an unfavorable outcome in one or more legal matters, our ultimate liability may be in excess of amounts we have reserved and such additional amounts could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, it is possible that these legal proceedings could result in equitable remedies or other unexpected outcomes that could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We depend on our key personnel to manage our business effectively, and they may be difficult to replace, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Much of our competitive advantage is based on the expertise, experience and know-how of our key personnel. We do not have fixed term employment agreements with any of our key personnel, and the loss of one or more of these key personnel could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Our success also depends on the ability to hire and retain additional personnel. Difficulty in hiring or retaining personnel could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
As of the date of this report, the Company had no unresolved comments from the Commission staff regarding its periodic or current reports under the Exchange Act.
Item 1C. Cybersecurity
Risk Management and Strategy
Identifying, assessing and managing cybersecurity risks is an important component of White Mountains’s overall enterprise risk management program. As with the management of risks generally, given our holding company structure, the management of cybersecurity risks involves coordination between the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries/affiliates.
The Company and each of its consolidated subsidiaries/affiliates are responsible for developing a cybersecurity program appropriate for their respective businesses. The design of these cybersecurity programs is informed by the ISO 27001 standards and the Center for Internet Security Critical Security Controls framework (“CISCSC”). This does not imply that these programs meet all specifications of ISO 27001 and CISCSC, but rather that we use them as a guide to help us identify, assess and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business. The cybersecurity programs developed by the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries/affiliates include, among other things, (i) advanced threat protection and detection systems; (ii) vulnerability scanning and testing of network defenses; (iii) user authentication, role-based access and privileged access management; (iv) data encryption, loss prevention, backup and recovery mechanisms; (v) employee testing and training; (vi) technical and business team-focused incident response tabletop exercises; (vii) disaster recovery testing and (viii) security assessments of third-party service providers. White Mountains engages both its internal auditors and third-party information security experts to assist management in assessing the effectiveness of these cybersecurity programs.
Risks from cybersecurity threats may cause material disruptions to our operations and reputational harm, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. See Item 1.A Risk Factors, “We may be unable to adequately maintain our systems and safeguard the security of our data, which could adversely impact our ability to operate our business and cause reputational harm and, consequently, could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.” on page 41 for more information about these risks.
Governance
The Company’s Board of Directors has assigned oversight of White Mountains’s cybersecurity risk management to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee receives periodic reports on White Mountains’s cybersecurity risks and any material cybersecurity incidents at the direction of White Mountains’s senior management. In addition, the Audit Committee receives reports addressing cybersecurity risks as part of the Company’s overall enterprise risk management program.
White Mountains’s Information Technology (“IT”) Steering Committee, which includes its Chief Information Security Officer, Chief Technology Officer and various members of senior management, as well as the senior IT leadership at each of its consolidated subsidiaries/affiliates are responsible for assessing and managing White Mountains’s cybersecurity risk. These individuals include IT and cybersecurity professionals with relevant education, including degrees and/or certifications, and prior work experience. These individuals also monitor the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents as part of the cybersecurity programs described above.
Senior IT leadership at our consolidated subsidiaries/affiliates communicate information regarding cybersecurity risks to Company personnel through a variety of channels, including discussions between or among subsidiary/affiliate management and the Company, reports made to subsidiary/affiliate boards and direct updates to the Company’s senior management and/or IT Steering Committee.
Item 2. Properties
The Company maintains two professional offices in Hamilton, Bermuda, which serve as its headquarters and its registered office. The Company’s principal executive office is in Hanover, New Hampshire. In addition, White Mountains maintains professional offices in Guilford, Connecticut, which houses its corporate finance and investment functions, and Boston, Massachusetts, which houses its corporate accounting, reporting and internal audit functions. All of the Company’s professional offices are leased.
Ark’s, WM Outrigger Re’s and HG Global’s headquarters are located in Hamilton, Bermuda. In addition, Ark maintains underwriting offices in London, England and Hamilton, Bermuda. Kudu’s, Distinguished’s and WTM Partners’s headquarters are located in New York, New York.
The various offices and facilities of the consolidated Other Operating Businesses are owned or leased. Management considers its office facilities suitable and adequate for its current level of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025, 2024 AND 2023
Overview—Year Ended December 31, 2025 versus Year Ended December 31, 2024
White Mountains ended 2025 with book value per share of $2,188, an increase of 25% for the year, including dividends.
The increase in book value per share was driven primarily by the net gain on sale of the Bamboo Group of approximately $320 per share (based on 2.54 million shares outstanding at December 5, 2025). In addition, the growth in White Mountains’s book value per share reflected solid results at its operating companies and good investment returns.
Comprehensive income attributable to common shareholders was $1,109 million in 2025, largely driven by the net gain on sale of the Bamboo Group, compared to $230 million in 2024. White Mountains also recognized a net deferred tax expense of $73 million in 2025 from the reversal of the deferred tax asset related to the Bermuda economic transition adjustment, of which $51 million was recorded at Ark and $22 million was recorded at HG Global. Due to the enactment of Pillar II legislation by Luxembourg in December 2025, White Mountains no longer expects to utilize the benefit of the Bermuda economic transition adjustment.
On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the sale of a controlling financial interest in the Bamboo Group to affiliates of funds advised by CVC. White Mountains sold approximately 77.3% of its equity interest in the Bamboo Group for net cash proceeds at closing of $848 million and retained an indirect equity interest valued at $250 million. White Mountains’s Other Operations recognized a net gain of $816 million, which was comprised of an $849 million net gain on sale of the Bamboo Group, partially offset by $33 million of parent company compensation costs recorded within general and administrative expenses.
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains closed its transaction to acquire a controlling financial interest in Distinguished, a full-service MGA and program administrator for specialty property & casualty insurance. White Mountains paid $225 million of cash consideration, including a post-closing purchase price adjustment of $1 million. In addition, Distinguished borrowed $50 million of incremental debt and utilized $7 million of cash on hand as part of the transaction.
On July 18, 2025, White Mountains closed its transaction to deploy $150 million into BroadStreet through the BroadStreet SPV, alongside co-lead investors Ethos Capital LP and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation. BroadStreet is an insurance brokerage company with a presence in all 50 U.S. states and ten Canadian provinces.
On April 1, 2025, White Mountains acquired a majority interest in Enterprise Solutions, a provider of specialty electrical contracting services. This was the first acquisition by WTM Partners. White Mountains paid $58 million of cash consideration, and Enterprise Solutions borrowed $15 million in new debt as part of the transaction.
In 2025, White Mountains repurchased and retired 100,581 of its common shares for $203 million at an average share price of $2,013.67, or 92% of White Mountains’s December 31, 2025 book value per share. This included 64,064 shares repurchased through the self-tender offer in December.
Including a distribution of $128 million from WM Outrigger Re received in January, undeployed capital stands at roughly $1.0 billion.

The Ark/WM Outrigger segment’s combined ratio was 81% in 2025 compared to 82% in 2024. The Ark/WM Outrigger segment reported gross written premiums of $2,557 million, net written premiums of $1,812 million and net earned premiums of $1,697 million in 2025 compared to gross written premiums of $2,207 million, net written premiums of $1,679 million and net earned premiums of $1,588 million in 2024. The Ark/WM Outrigger segment reported pre-tax income of $310 million in 2025 compared to $299 million in 2024.
Ark’s combined ratio was 83% in both 2025 and 2024. Ark’s combined ratio in 2025 included eight points of catastrophe losses, driven primarily by Hurricane Melissa and losses related to the January 2025 California wildfires, compared to 13 points of catastrophe losses in 2024, driven primarily by Hurricanes Milton, Helene, Debby and Beryl. Ark’s combined ratio included seven points of net favorable prior year development in 2025, driven primarily by property and specialty lines of business. This included six points of unfavorable development related to aviation losses from the conflict in Ukraine and Russia. This compares to four points of net favorable prior year development in 2024, driven primarily by property and specialty lines of business.
Ark reported gross written premiums of $2,557 million, net written premiums of $1,727 million and net earned premiums of $1,613 million in 2025 compared to gross written premiums of $2,207 million, net written premiums of $1,593 million and net earned premiums of $1,500 million in 2024. Ark reported pre-tax income of $265 million in 2025 compared to $253 million in 2024. Ark’s results included net realized and unrealized investment gains of $125 million in 2025 compared to $50 million in 2024. Ark’s results in 2025 also included a $173 million of expense related to the increase in fair value of contingent consideration compared to $61 million in 2024. The increase in the contingent consideration liability was driven primarily by strong growth in Ark’s tangible book value in the year. Ark’s results in 2025 also included the reversal of the $51 million deferred tax asset associated with the Bermuda economic transition adjustment. In November 2025, A.M. Best affirmed Ark’s “A/stable” financial strength rating and upgraded its issuer credit rating to “a+/stable”.
WM Outrigger Re’s combined ratio was 57% in 2025, compared to 60% in 2024. Catastrophe losses in the year ended December 31, 2025 included $19 million of losses related to the California wildfires (net of reinstatement premiums), primarily attributable to the 2024 underwriting year. WM Outrigger Re reported gross written premiums of $84 million and net earned premiums of $85 million in 2025 compared to gross written premiums of $87 million and net earned premiums of $88 million in 2024.
WM Outrigger Re reported pre-tax income (loss) of $45 million in 2025, of which $55 million was attributable to the 2025 underwriting year and $(10) million was attributable to the 2024 underwriting year. WM Outrigger Re reported pre-tax income of $46 million in 2024, of which $38 million was attributable to the 2024 underwriting year and $8 million was attributable to the 2023 underwriting year. Through December 31, 2025, WM Outrigger Re has generated pre-tax income of $55 million from the 2025 underwriting year, $29 million from the 2024 underwriting year and $76 million from the 2023 underwriting year.
White Mountains’s capital commitment to WM Outrigger Re was $150 million for the 2025 underwriting year, $130 million for the 2024 underwriting year and $205 million for the 2023 underwriting year. During the fourth quarter of 2025, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2026 underwriting year with $70 million of capital.

I. SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS BY SEGMENT
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains conducted its operations through four reportable segments: (1) Ark/WM Outrigger, (2) HG Global, (3) Kudu and (4) Distinguished, with our remaining operating businesses, holding companies and other assets included in Other Operations. White Mountains has made its segment determination based on consideration of the following criteria: (i) the nature of the business activities of each of the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) the manner in which the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates are organized; (iii) the existence of primary managers responsible for specific subsidiaries and affiliates; and (iv) the organization of information provided to the Company’s chief operating decision makers and its Board of Directors. Significant intercompany transactions among White Mountains’s segments have been eliminated herein. White Mountains’s segment information is presented in Note 15 — “Segment Information” on page F-70.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, Ark sponsored the formation of Outrigger Re Ltd. to provide collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. Ark renewed its quota share reinsurance agreement with Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 underwriting years. White Mountains consolidates its segregated account of Outrigger Re Ltd., WM Outrigger Re, in its financial statements. WM Outrigger Re’s quota share reinsurance agreement with GAIL eliminates in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. WM Outrigger Re exclusively provides reinsurance protection to Ark. As a result, WM Outrigger Re was aggregated with Ark within the Ark/WM Outrigger segment starting in 2023. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
Effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations, are presented within the HG Global segment. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.

As a result, White Mountains deconsolidated the Bamboo Group on December 5, 2025, and Bamboo is no longer a reportable segment. Through December 5, 2025, Bamboo’s results of operations, are presented within the Bamboo segment. White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the Bamboo SPV is accounted for at fair value in other long-term investments within Other Operations. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains completed the Distinguished Transaction. As a result, White Mountains began consolidating Distinguished in its financial statements on September 2, 2025. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.

HG Global Results—Year Ended December 31, 2025 versus Year Ended December 31, 2024
HG Global reported gross written premiums of $61 million and earned premiums of $31 million in 2025 compared to gross written premiums of $52 million and earned premiums of $29 million in 2024. HG Global reported gross written premiums net of ceding commission paid of $43 million in 2025 compared to $37 million in 2024. HG Global’s total par value of policies assumed, which represents its first-loss exposure on policies assumed from BAM, was $3,170 million in 2025, of which $2,718 million was in the primary market and $452 million in the secondary market, compared to $2,952 million in 2024, of which $2,614 million was in the primary market and $338 million in the secondary market. The increase in primary market par assumed was driven by increased municipal bond issuance. The increase in secondary market par assumed was driven by increased uncertainty in financial markets, which created more demand for bond insurance.
HG Global’s total gross pricing was 194 basis points in 2025, compared to 177 basis points in 2024. Pricing in the primary market increased to 160 basis points in 2025 compared to 140 basis points in 2024, due to an increase in the volume of large, higher-priced issuances insured by BAM in 2025. Pricing in the secondary market, which is more transaction specific than pricing in the primary market, decreased to 398 basis points in 2025 compared to 464 basis points in 2024, due to a decrease in the volume and pricing of larger secondary market issuances insured by BAM in 2025. Total pricing net of ceding commission paid increased to 136 basis points in 2025 compared to 125 basis points in 2024.

HG Global Results—Year Ended December 31, 2024 versus Year Ended December 31, 2023
Effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Upon deconsolidation, the BAM Surplus Notes, including accrued interest receivable, were fair valued in accordance with GAAP at $387 million, which resulted in an unrealized loss on deconsolidation of $115 million. As of December 31, 2024, the BAM Surplus Notes were fair valued at $382 million. The decrease in fair value of $5 million was driven by a $22 million cash payment of principal and interest, partially offset by $16 million of accrued interest and a $1 million increase in fair value as a result of lower market interest rates.
HG Global reported gross written premiums of $52 million and earned premiums of $29 million in 2024 compared to gross written premiums of $50 million and earned premiums of $26 million in 2023. HG Global reported gross written premiums net of ceding commission paid of $37 million in 2024 compared to $35 million in 2023. HG Global’s total par value of policies assumed, which represents its first-loss exposure on policies assumed from BAM, was $2,952 million in 2024, of which $2,614 million was in the primary market and $338 million in the secondary market, compared to $2,356 million in 2023, of which $1,930 million was in the primary market and $426 million in the secondary market.
HG Global’s total gross pricing was 177 basis points in 2024 compared to 213 basis points in 2023. Pricing in the primary market decreased to 140 basis points in 2024 compared to 164 basis points in 2023, due to tighter municipal bond spreads and an increase in the volume of large, higher-credit issuances insured by BAM. Pricing in the secondary market, which is more transaction specific than pricing in the primary market, increased to 464 basis points in 2024 compared to 434 basis points in 2023. Total pricing net of ceding commission paid decreased to 125 basis points in 2024 compared to 148 basis points in 2023.

(1) For capital appreciation bonds, par is adjusted to the estimated equivalent par value for current interest paying bonds.
HG Global reported pre-tax income (loss) of $(66) million in 2024 compared to $56 million in 2023. The change in pre-tax income (loss) was driven primarily by the loss on deconsolidation of BAM of $115 million in 2024. HG Global’s results included net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on its fixed income portfolio of $(6) million in 2024 compared to $14 million in 2023, driven by movements in interest rates. HG Global’s results included interest income on the BAM Surplus Notes of $29 million in 2024 compared to $26 million in 2023. The increase in interest income is driven by an increase in the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes in 2024. See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Insurance - BAM Surplus Notes” on page F-61. HG Global’s results also included a $5 million net deferred tax benefit related to the Bermuda economic transition adjustment in 2024 compared to $17 million in 2023.

Kudu Results — Year Ended December 31, 2025 versus Year Ended December 31, 2024
Kudu reported total revenues of $183 million, pre-tax income of $140 million and adjusted EBITDA of $65 million in 2025 compared to total revenues of $119 million, pre-tax income of $81 million and adjusted EBITDA of $55 million in 2024.
Total revenues, pre-tax income and adjusted EBITDA included $79 million of net investment income in 2025 compared to $67 million in 2024. The increase in net investment income was driven primarily by amounts earned from new deployments that Kudu made in 2024 and 2025. Total revenues and pre-tax income also included $104 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2025 compared to $51 million in 2024. Net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2025 were driven by an increase in the fair value of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, primarily due to growth in assets under management at several managers and foreign currency exchange gains from a weakening U.S. dollar. Net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2024 were driven by an increase in the fair value of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, primarily due to growth in assets under management at several managers and lower discount rates across the portfolio, partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses resulting from a strengthening U.S. dollar and an unrealized loss from a publicly listed security received by Kudu in a prior sales transaction.
Kudu Results—Year Ended December 31, 2024 versus Year Ended December 31, 2023
Kudu reported total revenues of $119 million, pre-tax income of $81 million and adjusted EBITDA of $55 million in 2024 compared to total revenues of $177 million, pre-tax income of $137 million and adjusted EBITDA of $57 million in 2023.
Total revenues, pre-tax income and adjusted EBITDA included $67 million of net investment income in 2024 compared to $71 million in 2023. The decrease in net investment income was driven primarily by a $12 million realization of carried
interest for one of Kudu’s Participation Contracts in 2023, partially offset by amounts earned from new deployments that Kudu made during 2023 and 2024. Total revenues and pre-tax income also included $51 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2024 compared to $106 million in 2023. Net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2024 were driven by an increase in the fair value of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, primarily due to growth in assets under management at several managers and lower discount rates across the portfolio, partially offset by foreign currency exchange losses resulting from a strengthening U.S. dollar and an unrealized loss from a publicly listed security received by Kudu in a prior sales transaction. Net realized and unrealized investment gains in 2023 were driven by an increase in the fair value of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, primarily due to a step-up in valuation related to a pending transaction, lower discount rates across the portfolio and growth in assets under management at several managers.

Bamboo
On January 2, 2024, White Mountains acquired a controlling interest in Bamboo.
On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the Bamboo Sale Transaction. As a result, White Mountains deconsolidated the Bamboo Group on December 5, 2025, and Bamboo is no longer a reportable segment. Through December 5, 2025, Bamboo’s results of operations are presented within the Bamboo segment. White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the Bamboo SPV is accounted for at fair value in other long-term investments within Other Operations. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
Bamboo is a capital-light, tech- and data-enabled insurance distribution platform providing homeowners’ insurance and related products to the residential property market in California and, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, in Texas. Bamboo operates primarily through Bamboo MGA, its full-service MGA business, where the company manages all aspects of the placement process on behalf of its Capacity Providers, including product development, marketing, underwriting, policy issuance and claims oversight, and it earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places.
The following table presents the components of GAAP net income (loss), MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA included in White Mountains’s Bamboo segment for the period from January 1, 2025 to December 5, 2025 and for the year ended December 31, 2024:

Distinguished
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished. White Mountains funded the Distinguished Transaction through a combination of cash on hand and new borrowings by Distinguished. White Mountains paid $225 million of cash consideration, including a post-closing purchase price adjustment of $1 million. In addition, Distinguished borrowed $50 million of incremental debt and utilized $7 million of cash on hand as part of the transaction. The consideration is subject to customary purchase price adjustments. At closing, White Mountains owned 55.5%, inclusive of its 1.7% previously-held interest, of Distinguished on a basic units outstanding basis (43.6% on a fully-diluted/ fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives), while Distinguished management owned 4.2% of the basic units outstanding (24.7% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis). See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
Distinguished is a full-service MGA and program administrator for specialty property and casualty insurance. Distinguished places insurance across a diversified portfolio of programs broadly grouped into two verticals. The ScaleCo vertical consists of established programs, primarily focused on real estate and hospitality end markets. The GrowthCo vertical consists of start-up programs, focused on a diversified set of specialty property and casualty insurance products across multiple industries. On behalf of its insurance carrier partners, Distinguished typically manages all aspects of the placement process, including product development, marketing, underwriting and policy issuance. Distinguished earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Distinguished does not retain insurance risk.

White Mountains’s Other Operations reported pre-tax income of $810 million in 2025 compared to $9 million in 2024.

Excluding MediaAlpha, White Mountains’s Other Operations reported net realized and unrealized investment gains of $80 million in 2025 compared to $57 million in 2024. The increase in net realized and unrealized investment gains was driven primarily by higher gains from other long-term investments in 2025 compared to 2024.

White Mountains’s portfolio of common equity securities was $483 million and $650 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

III. Income Taxes
As of December 31, 2025, the primary jurisdictions in which the Company’s subsidiaries and branches operated and were subject to tax are Israel, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom and the United States.
On December 15, 2022, European Union Member States voted to adopt the EU Minimum Tax Directive in conformity with the OECD Pillar Two initiative. The Pillar Two initiative includes a set of model rules that are generally designed to impose a top-up tax on a large multinational enterprise group to the extent that the group is not subject to an effective tax rate of at least 15% in each jurisdiction in which the group has a consolidated affiliate or permanent establishment. The EU Minimum Tax Directive required European Union Member States to enact conforming law by December 31, 2023. The main rule of the EU Minimum Tax Directive, the IIR, was to become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023, while the UTPR was to become effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2024. The EU Minimum Tax Directive also permits European Union Member States to elect to apply a QDMTT for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023.
On July 11, 2023, the United Kingdom enacted conforming Pillar Two legislation including the IIR and QDMTT, which became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023. On March 20, 2025, the United Kingdom enacted legislation adopting the Pillar Two UTPR effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2024. Under the legislation, the effective date of the UTPR is deferred until fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2029 for U.K. companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries and (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the U.K. UTPR until January 1, 2030.
On December 20, 2023, Luxembourg enacted conforming Pillar Two legislation including the IIR and QDMTT, which became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023, and the UTPR, which became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2024. The Luxembourg Pillar Two legislation defers the effective date of the QDMTT and UTPR until fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2028 and 2029, respectively, for Luxembourg companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries and (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the Luxembourg QDMTT and UTPR until January 1, 2029 and 2030, respectively.
On December 27, 2023, Bermuda enacted a 15% corporate income tax that became effective on January 1, 2025. The Bermuda legislation defers the effective date for five years for Bermuda companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. To qualify for the deferral, generally the group must (i) have consolidated affiliates and permanent establishments in six or fewer countries, (ii) have no more than €50 million of net tangible assets outside of the country where the group has the largest amount of net tangible assets and (iii) not have a consolidated Bermuda affiliate or Bermuda permanent establishment directly or indirectly owned by a parent entity that is subject to the Pillar Two IIR in any jurisdiction. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the Bermuda corporate income tax until January 1, 2030.
The Bermuda legislation also provides for an optional economic transition adjustment that can decrease or increase future years’ taxable income. Under GAAP, this economic transition adjustment was required to be recorded as a deferred tax asset or liability as of December 31, 2023 if a company intended to apply the adjustment to compute its taxable income. Accordingly, White Mountains recognized a net deferred tax benefit of $68 million in 2023, of which $51 million was recognized at Ark and $17 million was recognized at HG Global. As of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. As a result of the deconsolidation, the BAM Surplus Notes are recorded at fair value, which resulted in the reversal of a $5 million deferred tax liability related to the economic transition adjustment, generating a $5 million deferred tax benefit in 2024. On December 11, 2025, Bermuda enacted legislation that changed the scope of assets and liabilities subject to the economic transition adjustment. This legislation resulted in the reversal of a $5 million deferred tax liability related to the economic transition adjustment, generating a $5 million deferred tax benefit in 2025.
On January 15, 2025, the OECD released administrative guidance on its Pillar Two model rules. The January 2025 OECD Administrative Guidance provides that, subject to limited exceptions, deferred tax expense attributable to deferred tax assets resulting from the introduction of a new corporate income tax after November 30, 2021 is to be excluded when assessing whether a multinational enterprise group has an effective tax rate of at least 15% in the jurisdiction that adopted the corporate income tax. Deferred tax assets associated with the economic transition adjustment recorded under the Bermuda corporate income tax are expected to be within the scope of the January 2025 OECD Administrative Guidance.
On December 17, 2025, Luxembourg enacted legislation that adopts the January 2025 OECD Administrative Guidance. Accordingly, in any future year in which the economic transition adjustment deferred tax asset is utilized, White Mountains expects to incur a top-up tax under the Luxembourg UTPR equal to the amount of the deferred tax expense for that year associated with the economic transition adjustment. Consequently, White Mountains expects to derive no economic benefit from the Bermuda economic transition adjustment and intends to opt out of the economic transition adjustment upon becoming subject to Bermuda corporate income tax. Accordingly, White Mountains recognized a deferred tax expense of $78 million in 2025 to reverse the net deferred tax asset related to the Bermuda economic transition adjustment.

On December 11, 2025, the Bermuda government enacted legislation providing certain incentives for Bermuda-based employment, training, local expenditure and community development. The incentives are based on qualifying expenditures of eligible Bermuda entities and are provided in the form of a refundable tax credit. A Bermuda entity may be eligible for the incentives regardless of whether it is subject to the Bermuda corporate income tax. For the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains accrued a $10 million benefit for the incentives as a reduction to general and administrative expenses.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted the OBBBA. White Mountains does not expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on its financial statements.
White Mountains reported income tax expense of $127 million in 2025 on pre-tax income of $1,329 million. The difference between White Mountains’s effective tax rate and the current U.S. statutory rate of 21% was driven primarily by income generated in jurisdictions with lower tax rates than the United States, income attributable to certain gains not subject to tax in Luxembourg, a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in certain U.S. operations (consisting of Other Operations), withholding taxes and state income taxes. The effective rate also differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% due to the $73 million net deferred tax expense related to the reversal of the Bermuda economic transition adjustment.
White Mountains reported income tax expense of $33 million in 2024 on pre-tax income of $317 million. The difference between White Mountains’s effective tax rate and the current U.S. statutory rate of 21% was driven primarily by income generated in jurisdictions with lower tax rates than the United States, a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in certain U.S. operations (consisting of Other Operations and BAM), withholding taxes and state income taxes.
White Mountains reported income tax benefit of $16 million in 2023 on pre-tax income of $565 million. The difference between White Mountains’s effective tax rate and the current U.S. statutory rate of 21% was driven primarily by income generated in jurisdictions with lower tax rates than the United States, a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets in certain U.S. operations (consisting of Other Operations and BAM), withholding taxes and state income taxes. The effective rate also differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% due to the $68 million deferred tax benefit related to the Bermuda economic transition adjustment.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating Cash and Short-term Investments
Holding Company Level
The primary sources of cash for the Company and certain of its intermediate holding companies are expected to be distributions from its insurance, reinsurance and other operating subsidiaries, net investment income, proceeds from sales, repayments and maturities of investments, borrowings from credit facilities, capital raising activities and, from time to time, proceeds from sales of operating subsidiaries. The primary uses of cash are expected to be general and administrative expenses, purchases of investments, payments to tax authorities, payments on and repurchases/retirements of debt obligations, dividend payments to holders of the Company’s common shares, distributions to noncontrolling interest holders of consolidated subsidiaries, contributions to operating subsidiaries and, from time to time, purchases of operating subsidiaries and repurchases of the Company’s common shares.
Operating Subsidiary Level
The primary sources of cash for White Mountains’s insurance, reinsurance and other operating subsidiaries are expected to be premium and fee collections, commissions, net investment income, proceeds from sales, repayments and maturities of investments, contributions from holding companies, borrowings from credit facilities and capital raising activities. The primary uses of cash are expected to be claim payments, policy acquisition costs, general and administrative expenses, broker commission expenses, cost of sales, purchases of investments, payments to tax authorities, payments on and repurchases/retirements of debt obligations, distributions to holding companies, distributions to noncontrolling interest holders and, from time to time, purchases of operating subsidiaries.
Both internal and external forces influence White Mountains’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Premium and fee collections, investment returns, claim payments and cost of sales may be impacted by changing rates of inflation and other economic conditions. Some time may lapse between the occurrence of an insured loss, the reporting of the loss to White Mountains’s insurance and reinsurance operating subsidiaries and the settlement of the liability for that loss. The exact timing of the payment of losses cannot be predicted with certainty. White Mountains’s insurance and reinsurance operating subsidiaries maintain portfolios of invested assets with varying maturities and a substantial amount of cash and short-term investments to provide adequate liquidity for the payment of claims.
Management believes that White Mountains’s cash balances, cash flows from operations and routine sales and maturities of investments are adequate to meet expected cash requirements for the foreseeable future at both a holding company and insurance, reinsurance and other operating subsidiary level.

Dividend Capacity
Following is a description of the dividend capacity of White Mountains’s insurance and reinsurance and other operating subsidiaries:
Ark/WM Outrigger
During any 12-month period, GAIL, a class 4 licensed Bermuda insurer, has the ability to (i) make capital distributions of up to 15% of its total statutory capital per the previous year’s statutory financial statements or (ii) make dividend payments of up to 25% of its total statutory capital and surplus per the previous year’s statutory financial statements, without prior approval of Bermuda regulatory authorities. Accordingly, GAIL will have the ability to pay a dividend of up to $425 million during 2026, which is equal to 25% of its statutory capital and surplus of $1,700 million as of December 31, 2025, subject to meeting all appropriate liquidity and solvency requirements and the filing of its December 31, 2025 statutory financial statements. During 2025, GAIL did not pay any dividends to its immediate parent.
During 2025, Ark paid a $41 million dividend to shareholders, including $30 million that was paid to White Mountains. As of December 31, 2025, Ark and its intermediate holding companies had $9 million of net unrestricted cash and short-term investments outside of its regulated and unregulated insurance and reinsurance operating subsidiaries.
WM Outrigger Re is a special purpose insurer subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. WM Outrigger Re does not require regulatory approval to pay dividends; however, its dividend capacity is limited to amounts held outside of the collateral trust pursuant to its reinsurance agreement with GAIL. As of December 31, 2025, WM Outrigger Re had less than $1 million of net unrestricted cash held outside the collateral trust. As of December 31, 2025, WM Outrigger Re had $232 million of statutory capital and surplus and $246 million of assets held in the collateral trusts pursuant to the reinsurance agreement with GAIL. During 2025, White Mountains received a distribution of $10 million from WM Outrigger Re.
HG Global
As of December 31, 2025, HG Global had $619 million face value of preferred shares outstanding, of which White Mountains owned 96.9%. Holders of the HG Global preferred shares are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at a fixed annual rate of 6.0% on a quarterly basis, payable when and if declared by HG Global. As of December 31, 2025, HG Global has accrued $544 million of dividends payable to holders of its preferred shares, $527 million of which is payable to White Mountains and is eliminated in consolidation. As of December 31, 2025, HG Global and its subsidiaries had $32 million of net unrestricted cash and short-term investments outside of HG Re.
HG Re is a special purpose insurer subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. HG Re does not require regulatory approval to pay dividends; however, its dividend capacity is limited to amounts held outside of the Collateral Trusts. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $4 million of net unrestricted cash and short-term investments. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $179 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes held outside the Collateral Trusts. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $732 million of statutory capital and surplus and $1,007 million of assets held in the Collateral Trusts.
HG Global has two primary sources of cash flows: (i) interest payments on the BAM Surplus Notes that are made outside the Collateral Trusts and (ii) releases of excess balances from the Collateral Trusts. During 2025, HG Global received cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $35 million. Of these payments, $24 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, less than $1 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $11 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust. During 2025, HG Re received a distribution from the Supplemental Trust of $61 million, which consisted of an assignment of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes of $30 million and a cash distribution of $31 million.
See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance” on page F-60.

Financing
The following table presents White Mountains’s capital structure as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(1)See Note 7 — “Debt” on page F-49 for details of debt arrangements.
(2) Net of unamortized issuance costs and original issue discount.
On July 16, 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement, which established a senior unsecured revolving credit facility of up to $250 million that matures on July 16, 2028 (the “WTM Credit Facility”). As of December 31, 2025, the WTM Credit Facility is undrawn.
Management believes that White Mountains has the flexibility and capacity to obtain funds externally through debt or equity financing on both a short-term and long-term basis. However, White Mountains can provide no assurance that, if needed, it would be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.
It is possible that, in the future, one or more of the rating agencies may lower White Mountains’s existing ratings. If one or more of its ratings were lowered, White Mountains could incur higher borrowing costs on future borrowings, and its ability to access the capital markets could be impacted.
Covenant Compliance
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains was in compliance, in all material respects, with all of the covenants under its debt instruments.
82

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
The following table presents White Mountains’s material contractual obligations and commitments as of December 31, 2025:

Millions |  | Due in Less Than One Year |  | Due in Two to Three Years |  | Due in Four to Five Years |  | Due After Five Years |  | Total

(2) See “Contingent Consideration Liabilities” in Note 1 — “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” on page F-18.
(3) See “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests” in Note 13 — “Common Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests” on page F-68.
The long-term incentive compensation balances included in the table above include amounts payable for performance shares. Exact amounts to be paid for performance shares cannot be predicted with certainty, as the ultimate amounts of these liabilities are based on the future performance of White Mountains and the market price of the Company’s common shares at the time the payments are made.
The estimated payments reflected in the table are based on current accrual factors (including performance relative to targets and common share price) and assume that all outstanding balances were 100% vested as of December 31, 2025.
There are no provisions within White Mountains’s operating lease agreements that would trigger acceleration of future lease payments.
White Mountains does not finance its operations through the securitization of its trade receivables, through special purpose entities or through synthetic leases. Further, White Mountains has not entered into any material arrangements requiring it to guarantee payment of third-party debt or lease payments or to fund losses of an unconsolidated special purpose entity.
White Mountains also has future binding commitments to fund certain other long-term investments. These commitments, which totaled approximately $176 million as of December 31, 2025, do not have fixed funding dates and are therefore excluded from the table above.
Share Repurchase Programs
The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase its common shares from time to time, subject to market conditions. Shares may be repurchased on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The repurchase authorizations do not have a stated expiration date. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains may repurchase an additional 269,594 shares under these Board authorizations. In addition, from time to time White Mountains has also repurchased its common shares through self-tender offers that were separately authorized by its Board of Directors.
The following table presents common shares repurchased by the Company as well as the average price per share as a percent of December 31, 2025 book value per share and market value per share.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS
White Mountains does not have any transactions with related persons to report as of December 31, 2025.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This report includes 12 non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled from their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
Ark’s tangible book value and tangible capital
Ark’s tangible book value is a non-GAAP financial measure derived by adjusting GAAP book value to exclude goodwill, other intangible assets, the related deferred tax liability and the contingent consideration liability. The contingent consideration liability represents the estimated fair value of the additional shares that could be earned by management rollover shareholders if and to the extent that White Mountains achieves certain MOIC return thresholds. If earned, these additional shares would result in a reallocation of economics among Ark’s shareholders, which is reflected in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded by White Mountains, but would have no impact on Ark’s stand-alone book value or tangible book value. White Mountains believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to management and investors in evaluating Ark’s enterprise value. See page 59 for the reconciliation of Ark’s GAAP equity to tangible book value. Ark’s tangible capital is a non-GAAP financial measure derived by adding debt to tangible book value. See page 59 for the reconciliation of Ark’s GAAP equity to tangible capital.
Kudu’s EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
Kudu's EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to 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 added back to calculate EBITDA. The items relate to (i) net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on Kudu's Participation Contracts, (ii) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and (iii) transaction expenses.
A description of each item follows:
•Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) - Represents net unrealized investment gains and losses on Kudu’s Participation Contracts, which are recorded at fair value under GAAP, and realized investment gains and losses recorded on Kudu’s 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.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Kudu’s performance. The reconciliation of Kudu’s GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is included on page 67.
85

Bamboo’s MGA pre-tax income (loss), MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA
Bamboo’s MGA pre-tax income (loss), MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures.
MGA pre-tax income (loss) and MGA net income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the results of the Bamboo Captive, which is consolidated by Bamboo MGA under GAAP, from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) and net income (loss). The following table presents the reconciliation from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) to MGA pre-tax income (loss):

Millions |  | January 1, 2025 - December 5, 2025 |  | Year Ended December 31, 2024
Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) |  | $ | 40.1 |  |  | $ | 32.7 |
Remove pre-tax (income) loss, Bamboo Captive |  | 1.0 |  |  | (1.0) |
MGA pre-tax income (loss) |  | $ | 41.1 |  |  | $ | 31.7 |

MGA EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to MGA net income (loss). MGA adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those added back to calculate MGA EBITDA. The items relate to (i) non-cash equity-based compensation expense, (ii) software implementation expenses, (iii) restructuring expenses and (iv) transaction expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Bamboo’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Bamboo.
•Software implementation expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s implementation of new software.
•Restructuring expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s corporate restructuring and capital planning activities.
•Transaction expenses - Represents costs directly related to transaction activities at Bamboo, which are not capitalized and are expensed under GAAP.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Bamboo’s performance. See page 69 for the reconciliation of Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP net income (loss) to MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA.
Distinguished’s ScaleCo net income (loss), ScaleCo EBITDA and ScaleCo adjusted EBITDA
Distinguished’s ScaleCo net income (loss), ScaleCo EBITDA and ScaleCo adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. ScaleCo net income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the results of the GrowthCo vertical, which is consolidated under GAAP, from Distinguished’s consolidated GAAP net income (loss). ScaleCo EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to ScaleCo net income (loss). ScaleCo adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those items added back to calculate ScaleCo EBITDA. The items relate to (i) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and (ii) transaction expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Distinguished’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Distinguished.
•Transaction expenses - Represents costs directly related to transaction activities at Distinguished, which are not capitalized and are expensed under GAAP.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Distinguished’s performance. White Mountains also believes that excluding the results of the GrowthCo vertical, which Distinguished views as an investment in start-up programs, is useful to understanding the performance of Distinguished’s established programs. See page 71 for the reconciliation of Distinguished’s consolidated GAAP net income (loss) to ScaleCo net income (loss), ScaleCo EBITDA and ScaleCo adjusted EBITDA.
Total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha
Total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha is a non-GAAP financial measure that removes the net investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) from White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha. White Mountains believes this non-GAAP measure to be useful to management and investors by showing the underlying performance of White Mountains’s investment portfolio without regard to White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements presented herein include all adjustments considered necessary by management to fairly present the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of White Mountains.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain of these estimates are considered critical in that they involve a higher degree of judgment and are subject to a significant degree of variability. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
1. Fair Value Measurements
General
White Mountains records certain assets and liabilities at fair value in its consolidated financial statements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price) at a particular measurement date. Fair value measurements are categorized into a hierarchy that distinguishes between inputs based on market data from independent sources (observable inputs) and a reporting entity’s internal assumptions based upon the best information available when external market data is limited or unavailable (unobservable inputs). Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets have the highest priority (“Level 1”), followed by observable inputs other than quoted prices including prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities (“Level 2”) and unobservable inputs, including the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use, having the lowest priority (“Level 3”).
The valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value requires management to make estimates and apply judgment to matters that may carry a significant degree of uncertainty. In determining its estimates of fair value, White Mountains uses a variety of valuation approaches and inputs. Whenever possible, White Mountains estimates fair value using valuation methods that maximize the use of quoted market prices or other observable inputs. Where appropriate, assets and liabilities measured at fair value have been adjusted for the effect of counterparty credit risk.
Fair value estimates for instruments that trade infrequently and have few or no quoted market prices or other observable inputs are classified as Level 3 measurements. The determination of the fair value of these Level 3 instruments involves significant management judgment and the use of valuation analyses and unobservable inputs that are inherently subjective and uncertain. These unobservable inputs reflect White Mountains’s assumptions of what market participants would use in valuing the instrument. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Our investment portfolio includes securities that do not have readily observable market prices. We use valuation methodologies that are inherently subjective and uncertain to value these securities. The values of securities established using these methodologies may never be realized, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.” on page 36.
See Note 1 — “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” on page F-8 for White Mountains’s accounting policies for investment securities.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains’s most significant assets classified as Level 3 measurements include the BAM Surplus Notes, Kudu’s Participation Contracts, the Bamboo SPV and PassportCard/DavidShield. As of December 31, 2025, the Bamboo SPV was measured at fair value based on the value implied in the Bamboo Sale Transaction. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions” on page F-19.
87

BAM Surplus Notes
As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes was $339 million. On a quarterly basis, White Mountains values the BAM Surplus Notes using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis used to fair value the BAM Surplus Notes depends on key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings for BAM, expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes through maturity and a discount rate to reflect time value and related uncertainty of the repayment pattern. The expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results. These expected payments depend on BAM’s ability to generate excess cash flows from its operations, driven primarily by assumptions regarding future trends for the issuance of municipal bonds, interest rates, credit spreads, insured market penetration, competitive activity in the market for municipal bond insurance and other factors affecting the demand for and pricing of BAM’s municipal bond insurance, as well as BAM’s investment returns. The discount rate considers comparably-rated companies and instruments, adjusted for risks specific to BAM and the BAM Surplus Notes. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains concluded that a discount rate of 8.05% was appropriate for the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes.
When making its fair value selection, which is within a range of reasonable values derived from the discounted cash flow analysis, White Mountains considers all available information, facts and circumstances specific to BAM’s business and industry and any infrequent or unusual results for the period. See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “We may be subject to volatility from the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.” on page 33.
With a discounted cash flow analysis, small changes to key inputs may result in significant changes to fair value. The following table presents the estimated effect on the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes as of December 31, 2025, resulting from changes to the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow analysis:

Millions |  | Discount Rate
|  | 6.0% |  | 7.0% |  | 8.05% |  | 9.0% |  | 10.0% |  |  |
BAM Surplus Notes, at fair value |  | $ | 398 |  |  | $ | 369 |  |  | $ | 339 |  |  | $ | 312 |  |  | $ | 283 |  |  |  |

Kudu’s Participation Contracts
As of December 31, 2025, Kudu has a portfolio of Participation Contracts with a total fair value of $1,285 million. On a quarterly basis, White Mountains fair values each of Kudu’s Participation Contracts, typically using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analyses used to fair value Kudu’s Participation Contracts include key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings of Kudu’s managers, a discount rate and a terminal cash flow exit multiple. The expected future cash flows are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results. The discount rates reflect the weighted average cost of capital, considering comparable public company data and adjusted for risks specific to the business and industry. The terminal cash flow exit multiple is generally based on expectations of annual cash flow to Kudu from each of its managers in the terminal year of the discounted cash flow analysis. In determining fair value, White Mountains considers factors for each of Kudu’s managers, such as performance of products and vehicles, expected asset growth rates, new fund launches, fee rates by product, capacity constraints, operating cash flows and other qualitative factors, including the assessment of key personnel. The inputs to each discounted cash flow analysis vary depending on the nature of each of Kudu’s managers. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains concluded that pre-tax discount rates in the range of 16% to 25% and terminal cash flow exit multiples in the range of 7 to 22 times were appropriate for the valuations of Kudu’s Participation Contracts.
When making its fair value selections, which are within a range of reasonable values derived from the discounted cash flow analysis, White Mountains considers all available information, including any relevant market multiples and multiples implied by recent transactions, facts and circumstances specific to Kudu’s managers and any infrequent or unusual results for the period.

With a discounted cash flow analysis, small changes to key inputs may result in significant changes to fair value. The following table presents the estimated effect on the fair value of Kudu’s Participation Contracts as of December 31, 2025, resulting from changes in key inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis, including discount rates and terminal cash flow exit multiples:

Millions |  | Discount Rate(1)

(1) Since Kudu’s Participation Contracts are not subject to corporate taxes within Kudu Investment Management, LLC, pre-tax discount rates are applied to pre-tax cash flows in determining fair values.
PassportCard/DavidShield
As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of White Mountains’s investment in PassportCard/DavidShield was $170 million. On a quarterly basis, White Mountains values its investment in PassportCard/DavidShield using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis used to fair value PassportCard/DavidShield includes key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings, a discount rate and a terminal revenue growth rate. The expected future cash flows are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results. The discount rate reflects the weighted average cost of capital, considering comparable public company data and adjusted for risks specific to the business and industry. The terminal revenue growth rate is based on company, industry and macroeconomic expectations of perpetual revenue growth subsequent to the end of the discrete period in the discounted cash flow analysis. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains concluded that an after-tax discount rate of 24% and a terminal revenue growth rate of 4% were appropriate for the valuation of its investment in PassportCard/DavidShield.
When making its fair value selection, which is within a range of reasonable values derived from the discounted cash flow analysis, White Mountains considers all available information, including any relevant market multiples and multiples implied by recent transactions, facts and circumstances specific to PassportCard/DavidShield’s businesses and industries and any infrequent or unusual results for the period.
With a discounted cash flow analysis, small changes to key inputs may result in significant changes to fair value. The following table presents the estimated effect on the fair value of White Mountains’s investment in PassportCard/DavidShield as of December 31, 2025, resulting from changes in key inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis, including the discount rate and terminal revenue growth rate:

2. Ark’s Loss and LAE Reserves
General
Ark establishes loss and LAE reserves that are estimates of amounts needed to pay claims and related expenses in the future for insured events that have already occurred. The process of estimating loss and LAE reserves involves a considerable degree of judgment by management and, as of any given date, is inherently uncertain. See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” on page F-36 for a description of Ark’s loss and LAE reserves and actuarial methods.
Ark performs an actuarial review of its recorded loss and LAE reserves each quarter, using several generally accepted actuarial methods to evaluate its loss reserves, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. Management bases its level of reliance on a particular method based on the facts and circumstances at the time the reserve estimates are made.
As part of Ark’s quarterly actuarial review, Ark compares the previous quarter’s projections of incurred, paid and case reserve activity, including amounts incurred but not reported, to actual amounts experienced in the quarter. Differences between previous estimates and actual experience are evaluated to determine whether a given actuarial method for estimating loss and LAE reserves should be relied upon to a greater or lesser extent than it had been in the past. While some variance is expected each quarter due to the inherent uncertainty in estimating loss and LAE reserves, persistent or large variances would indicate that prior assumptions and/or reliance on certain actuarial methods may need to be revised going forward.
Upon completion of each quarterly review, Ark selects indicated loss and LAE reserve levels based on the results of the relevant actuarial methods, which are the primary consideration in determining management’s best estimate of required loss and LAE reserves. However, in making its best estimate, management also considers other qualitative factors that may lead to a difference between held reserves and actuarially indicated reserve levels. Typically, these qualitative factors are considered when management and Ark’s actuaries conclude that there is insufficient historical incurred and paid loss information or that there is particular uncertainty about whether trends included in the historical incurred and paid loss information are likely to repeat in the future. Such qualitative factors include, among others, recent entry into new markets or new products, improvements in the claims department that are expected to lessen future ultimate loss costs, legal and regulatory developments, inflation, climate change or other uncertainties that may arise.
The process of establishing loss and LAE reserves, including amounts incurred but not reported, is complex and imprecise, as it must consider many variables that are subject to the outcome of future events. As a result, informed subjective estimates and judgments as to Ark’s ultimate exposure to losses are an integral component of the loss and LAE reserving process. Ark categorizes and tracks insurance and reinsurance reserves by “reserving class of business” for each underwriting office, London and Bermuda, and then aggregates the reserving classes by line of business, which are summarized herein as property and accident & health, marine & energy, specialty, casualty-active and casualty-runoff.
Ark regularly reviews the appropriateness of its loss and LAE reserves at the reserving class of business level, considering a variety of trends that impact the ultimate settlement of claims for the subsets of claims in each particular reserving class. Loss and LAE are categorized by the year in which the policy is underwritten (the year of account, or underwriting year) for purposes of Ark’s claims management and estimation of the ultimate loss and LAE reserves. For purposes of Ark’s reporting under GAAP, loss and LAE are categorized by the accident year.
Loss and LAE Reserves by Line of Business
The following table summarizes Ark’s loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, as of December 31, 2025:

|  | December 31, 2025 |
Millions |  | Case |  | IBNR |  | Total |  |  |  |  |
Property and Accident & Health |  | $ | 236.8 |  |  | $ | 341.5 |  |  | $ | 578.3 |  |  |  |  |  |
Marine & Energy |  | 146.4 |  |  | 422.6 |  |  | 569.0 |  |  |  |  |  |
Specialty |  | 96.8 |  |  | 411.4 |  |  | 508.2 |  |  |  |  |  |
Casualty-Active |  | 36.0 |  |  | 194.6 |  |  | 230.6 |  |  |  |  |  |
Casualty-Runoff |  | 28.2 |  |  | 28.9 |  |  | 57.1 |  |  |  |  |  |
Total loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables |  | $ | 544.2 |  |  | $ | 1,399.0 |  |  | $ | 1,943.2 |  |  |  |  |  |

90

For loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025, Ark considers that the impact of the various reserving factors, as described in Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” on page F-36, on future paid losses would be similar to the impact of those factors on historical paid losses.
The major causes of material uncertainty (i.e., reserving factors) generally will vary for each line of business, as well as for each separately analyzed reserving class of business within the line of business. Also, reserving factors can have offsetting or compounding effects on estimated loss and LAE reserves. In most cases, it is not possible to measure the effect of a single reserving factor and construct a meaningful sensitivity expectation. Actual results will likely vary from expectations for each of these assumptions, resulting in an ultimate claim liability that is different from that being estimated currently.
Additional causes of material uncertainty exist in most product lines and may impact the types of claims that could occur within a particular line of business or reserving class of business. Examples where reserving factors within a line of business or reserving class of business are subject to change include changing types of insureds (e.g., size of account, industry insured, jurisdiction), changing underwriting standards or changing policy provisions (e.g., deductibles, policy limits, endorsements).
Ark Loss and LAE Development
See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” on page F-36 for prior year loss and LAE development discussions for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Range of Reserves
The following table shows the recorded loss and LAE reserves and the high and low ends of Ark’s range of reasonable loss and LAE reserve estimates, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, as of December 31, 2025. See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves” on page F-36 for a description of Ark’s loss and LAE reserves and actuarial methods.

|  | December 31, 2025
Millions |  | Low |  | Recorded |  | High
Total loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables |  | $1,510.2 |  | $1,943.2 |  | $2,023.8

The recorded reserves represent management's best estimate of unpaid loss and LAE reserves. Management’s best estimate of reserves is in the upper portion of the actuarial range of estimates in response to potential volatility in the actuarial indications and estimates for large claims. Ark uses the results of several different standard actuarial methods to develop its best estimate of ultimate loss and LAE reserves.
On an annual basis, Ark uses an independent external actuary to provide actuarial opinions on the reasonableness of loss and LAE reserves for its operating subsidiaries. Ark uses the independent actuarial review solely to corroborate Ark’s recorded loss and LAE reserves. The result of the independent actuarial review indicated that Ark’s net recorded loss and LAE reserves fall within the range noted above.
Although Ark believes its loss and LAE reserves are reasonably stated, ultimate losses may deviate, perhaps materially, from the recorded reserve amounts and could be above the high end of the range of actuarial projections. This is because ranges are developed based on known events as of the valuation date, whereas the ultimate disposition of losses is subject to the outcome of events and circumstances that may be unknown as of the valuation date.
91

Sensitivity Analysis
Below is a discussion of possible variations from current estimates of loss and LAE reserves due to changes in certain key assumptions. Each of the impacts described below is estimated individually, without consideration for any correlation among key assumptions. Further, there is uncertainty around other assumptions not explicitly quantified in the discussion below. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to take each of the amounts described below and add them together in an attempt to estimate volatility for Ark’s reserves in total. It is important to note that the volatilities and variations discussed below are not meant to be worst-case scenarios or an all-inclusive list, and therefore it is possible that future volatilities and variations may be more than amounts discussed below.
•Sustained elevated levels of inflation: Elevated levels of economic inflation have been observed since 2021. While most global economies are seeing these elevated levels begin to decline, inflation continues to be a key focus point for central bank policy. The extent to which inflation will impact the ultimate cost of insurance claims remains uncertain, particularly in the casualty lines of business with key social inflation drivers being court awards, changes in technology and the legal environment. For example, a hypothetical increase in inflation rates by 4% per annum would increase the recorded loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, for the casualty reserving lines of business by approximately $20 million, or approximately 7% of the recorded casualty loss and LAE reserves of $288 million.
•Catastrophe losses: The years 2017 through 2025 have been active for major loss events, including natural catastrophes. As time has passed, the emerging claims information for major loss events has been better than expected. As of December 31, 2025, Ark has recorded $230 million of loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, for major loss events, of which $171 million is held as IBNR reserves. Some, but perhaps not all, of the IBNR reserves may be needed to handle adverse reporting from clients.
•Conflict in Ukraine and Russia: The conflict in Ukraine and Russia has and will continue to have a significant impact on the insurance industry. Recent U.K. High Court rulings on leasing claims provided more certainty on coverages related to aviation hull war risk claims, but there are additional court cases to be decided and there is uncertainty as to how claims will be presented to reinsurers. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Ark recognized $91 million of unfavorable loss reserve development related to aviation losses from the conflict in Ukraine and Russia, driven by the U.K. High Court rulings. This is a complex loss event that will continue to be litigated and negotiated in the future. As such, there remains uncertainty with respect to the ultimate impact to both insurers and reinsurers.

Plus: ending reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses |  |  |  | 537.8 |  |  |
Gross ending balance |  |  |  | $ | 2,481.0 |  |  |

During the year ended December 31, 2025, Ark experienced $106 million of net favorable prior year loss reserve development, driven primarily by the property and accident & health ($85 million) and specialty ($27 million) reserving lines of business, partially offset by net unfavorable development in the marine & energy ($5 million) and casualty-active ($4 million) reserving lines of business. For property and accident & health, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development was driven primarily by positive claims experience for the 2024 and 2023 accident years. For specialty, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development was driven primarily by positive claims experience for the 2023 accident year, partially offset by negative claims experience for the 2022 and 2024 accident years. In addition, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development for specialty includes $91 million of unfavorable development related to aviation losses from the conflict in Ukraine and Russia resulting from the 2025 U.K. High Court rulings on leasing claims.

The following table summarizes the unpaid loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, for each of Ark’s major reserving lines of business as of December 31, 2025. The amounts in the table include balances ceded by Ark to WM Outrigger Re, which eliminate in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements.

Millions |  | As of December 31, 2025 |  |

Total Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses |  | 537.8 |  |  |
Total unpaid loss and LAE reserves |  | $ | 2,481.0 |  |  |

The following five tables cover each of Ark’s property and accident & health, marine & energy, specialty, casualty-active and casualty-runoff reserving lines of business and are net of reinsurance. Each of the five tables includes three sections as follows:
The top section of the table presents, for each of the previous ten accident years, (1) cumulative total undiscounted incurred loss and LAE as of each of the previous ten year-end evaluations, (2) total IBNR plus expected development on reported claims as of December 31, 2025 and (3) the cumulative number of reported claims as of December 31, 2025.
The middle section of the table presents cumulative paid loss and LAE for each of the previous ten accident years as of each of the previous ten year-end evaluations. Also included in this section is a calculation of the loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025, which is then included in the reconciliation to the consolidated balance sheet presented above. The total unpaid loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025 is calculated as the cumulative incurred loss and LAE from the top section less the cumulative paid loss and LAE from the middle section, plus any outstanding liabilities from accident years prior to 2015.
The bottom section of the table is supplementary information about the average historical claims duration as of December 31, 2025. It shows the weighted average annual percentage payout of incurred loss and LAE by accident year as of each age. For example, the first column is calculated as the incremental paid loss and LAE in the first calendar year for each given accident year (e.g., calendar year 2025 for accident year 2025, calendar year 2024 for accident year 2024) divided by the cumulative incurred loss and LAE as of December 31, 2025 for that accident year. The resulting ratios are weighted using cumulative incurred loss and LAE as of December 31, 2025.

3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
As of December 31, 2025, goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in connection with business and asset acquisitions totaled $1,020 million, of which $642 million was attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders.
Under the acquisition method, White Mountains recognizes and measures the assets acquired, including other intangible assets, at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the amount paid to acquire a business over the fair value of identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.
Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but rather are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever indications of potential impairment exist. In the absence of any indications of potential impairment, the evaluation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets is performed no later than the interim period in which the anniversary of the acquisition date falls. White Mountains initially evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets using a qualitative approach (step zero) to determine whether it is more likely than not that the implied fair value is greater than the carrying value. If the results of the qualitative evaluation indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of goodwill or the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeds the implied fair value, White Mountains performs a quantitative analysis to compare the fair value with the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, then an impairment charge is recognized through current period pre-tax income (loss).
Other intangible assets with finite lives are initially measured at their acquisition date fair values and subsequently amortized over their economic lives. Finite-lived intangible assets are presented net of accumulated amortization on the balance sheet. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events occur or there are changes in circumstances indicating that their carrying value may exceed fair value. An impairment exists when the carrying value of a finite-lived intangible asset exceeds the fair value.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains performed its periodic reviews for potential impairment and recognized an impairment of goodwill of $9 million and other intangible assets of $1 million related to an Other Operating Business within Other Operations. Impairment charges are presented within general and administrative expenses on the statement of operations.
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had total goodwill and other intangible assets of $1,020 million, $578 million of which relates to Distinguished and $293 million of which relates to Ark. See Note 4 — “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” on page F-34.
See Item 1A. Risk Factors, “If we are required to write down goodwill and other intangible assets, it could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.” on page 29.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or referenced in this report which address activities, events or developments which White Mountains expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. The words “could”, “will”, “believe”, “intend”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “project”, “estimate”, “predict” and similar expressions are also intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements with respect to White Mountains’s:
•change in book value per share or return on equity;
•business strategy;
•financial and operating targets or plans;
•incurred loss and LAE and the adequacy of its loss and LAE reserves and related reinsurance;
•projections of revenues, income (or loss), earnings (or loss) per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, dividends, market share or other financial forecasts of White Mountains or its businesses;
•expansion and growth of its business and operations; and
•future capital expenditures.
These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by White Mountains in light of its experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors believed to be appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to its expectations and predictions is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, including:
•the risks associated with Item 1A of this Report on Form 10-K;
•claims arising from catastrophic events, such as hurricanes, windstorms, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes, tsunamis, severe weather, public health crises, terrorist attacks, war and war-like actions, explosions, infrastructure failures or cyber attacks;
•recorded loss reserves subsequently proving to have been inadequate;
•the market value of White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha;
•business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to it and pursued;
•actions taken by rating agencies, such as financial strength or credit ratings downgrades or placing ratings on negative watch;
•the continued availability of capital and financing;
•the continued availability of fronting and reinsurance capacity;
•deterioration of general economic, market or business conditions, including due to outbreaks of contagious disease and corresponding mitigation efforts;
•competitive forces, including the conduct of other insurers;
•changes in domestic or foreign laws or regulations, or their interpretation, applicable to White Mountains, its competitors or its customers; and
•other factors, most of which are beyond White Mountains’s control.
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this report are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by White Mountains will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, White Mountains or its business or operations. White Mountains assumes no obligation to publicly update any such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
White Mountains’s consolidated balance sheet includes a substantial amount of assets and liabilities whose fair values are subject to market risk. The term market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates, credit spreads, equity markets prices and other relevant market rates and prices. Due to the size of White Mountains’s investment portfolio, market risk could have a significant effect on White Mountains’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Interest Rate and Credit Spread Risk
White Mountains invests in interest rate sensitive securities. White Mountains generally manages the interest rate risk associated with its portfolio of fixed maturity investments by monitoring the average duration of the portfolio. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments are comprised primarily of debt securities issued by corporations, U.S. government and agency obligations, foreign government and agency obligations, mortgage and asset-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations.
Increases and decreases in prevailing interest rates generally translate into decreases and increases in fair values of fixed maturity investments, respectively. Additionally, fair values of interest rate sensitive instruments may be affected by the creditworthiness of the issuer, prepayment options, relative values of alternative investments, the liquidity of the instrument and various other market factors.
The following table presents the estimated effects of hypothetical increases and decreases in market interest rates on White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments:

$ in Millions |  | Fair Value at December 31, 2025 |  | Assumed Change in Relevant Interest Rate |  | Estimated Fair Value After Change in Interest Rate |  | Pre-Tax Increase (Decrease) in Fair Value
Fixed maturity investments | $ | 2,770.5 |  |  | 100 bps decrease |  | $ | 2,839.6 |  |  | $ | 69.1 |
|  |  |  | 50 bps decrease |  | 2,805.3 |  |  | 34.8 |
|  |  |  | 50 bps increase |  | 2,735.5 |  |  | (35.0) |
|  |  |  | 100 bps increase |  | 2,700.5 |  |  | (70.0) |

The magnitude of the fair value decrease in rising interest rate scenarios may be more significant than the fair value increase in comparable falling interest rate scenarios. This can occur because (i) the analysis floors interest rates at a de minimis level in falling interest rate scenarios, muting price increases, (ii) portions of the fixed maturity investment portfolio may be callable, muting price increases in falling interest rate scenarios and/or (iii) portions of the fixed maturity investment portfolio may experience cash flow extension in higher interest rate environments, which generally results in lower prices.
White Mountains’s overall strategy for fixed maturity investments is to purchase securities that are attractively priced in relation to their investment risks. Widening and tightening of credit spreads translate into decreases and increases in fair values of fixed maturity investments, respectively.
The following table presents the estimated pre-tax effects of hypothetical widening and tightening of credit spreads on White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments by asset class:

|  | December 31, 2025
Millions |  | Fair Value |  | Tighten 50 |  | Tighten 25 |  | Widen 25 |  | Widen 50
U.S. government and agency obligations |  | $ | 460.3 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Foreign government and agency obligations |  | 32.5 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | — |
|  |  |  | Tighten 100 |  | Tighten 50 |  | Widen 50 |  | Widen 100
Agency mortgage-backed securities |  | 354.0 |  |  | 5.1 |  |  | 5.1 |  |  | (10.3) |  |  | (20.1) |
Other asset-backed securities |  | 39.0 |  |  | .6 |  |  | .5 |  |  | (.6) |  |  | (1.2) |
|  |  |  | Tighten 200 |  | Tighten 100 |  | Widen 100 |  | Widen 200
Debt securities issued by corporations |  | 1,537.7 |  |  | 15.8 |  |  | 15.4 |  |  | (38.9) |  |  | (77.8) |
|  |  |  | Tighten 300 |  | Tighten 200 |  | Widen 200 |  | Widen 300
Collateralized loan obligations |  | 347.0 |  |  | 28.6 |  |  | 27.8 |  |  | (38.7) |  |  | (58.1) |

The magnitude of the fair value decrease in wider credit spread scenarios may be more significant than the fair value increase in comparable tighter credit spread scenarios. This can occur because the analysis limits the credit spread tightening in order to establish a floor for yields of non-government bonds above yields of government bonds, thereby muting price increases.
102

Common Equity Securities, Investment in MediaAlpha and Other Long-Term Investments Price Risk
The carrying values of White Mountains’s common equity securities, investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments are based on quoted market prices or management’s estimates of fair value as of the balance sheet date. Market prices of common equity securities, in general, are subject to fluctuations, which could cause the amount realized upon sale or exercise of these instruments to differ significantly from the current reported value. The fluctuations may result from perceived changes in the underlying economic characteristics of the investment, the relative price of alternative investments, supply and demand imbalances for a particular security or various other market factors. Assuming a hypothetical 10% and 30% increase or decrease in the value of White Mountains’s common equity securities, investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments as of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of White Mountains’s common equity securities, investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments would increase or decrease by $367 million and $1,102 million, respectively, on a pre-tax basis. See “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Fair Value Measurements” on page 88 for further discussion related to the valuation of Kudu’s Participation Contracts and White Mountains’s investment in PassportCard/DavidShield.
BAM Surplus Notes
The carrying value of the BAM Surplus Notes is based on management’s estimate of fair value as of the balance sheet date. Assuming a hypothetical 10% and 30% increase or decrease in the value of the BAM Surplus Notes as of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the BAM Surplus Notes would increase or decrease by $34 million and $102 million, respectively, on a pre-tax basis. See “CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES — Fair Value Measurements” on page 88 for further discussion related to the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes.
Long-Term Obligations
White Mountains carries its debt obligations at face value less unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount. White Mountains is required to disclose the fair value of certain financial instruments not carried at fair value, including the debt obligations. See Note 18 — “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” on page F-78 for the fair value and carrying value of White Mountains’s debt obligations as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Foreign Currency Exposure
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had net assets of $376 million denominated in foreign currencies primarily related to Ark/WM Outrigger’s non-U.S. contracts, Kudu’s non-U.S. Participation Contracts and a private debt instrument, as well as certain other foreign consolidated and unconsolidated entities. See “Summary of Investment Results - Foreign Currency Exposure” on page 78 for fair value of White Mountains’s foreign denominated net assets (liabilities) by segment as of December 31, 2025.
The following table illustrates the pre-tax effect of a hypothetical 20% increase (decrease) in the U.S. dollar exchange rate on the carrying value of net assets denominated in foreign currencies as of December 31, 2025:

$ in Millions |  |  |  |  |  |
Carrying Value of Foreign Denominated Net Assets |  | Hypothetical Change |  | Hypothetical Pre-Tax Increase (Decrease) in Carrying Value |  | Hypothetical Percentage Increase (Decrease) in Stockholders’ Equity

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) is an exempted Bermuda limited liability company whose principal businesses are conducted through its subsidiaries and other affiliates. The Company’s headquarters is located at 26 Reid Street, Hamilton, Bermuda HM 11, its principal executive office is located at 23 South Main Street, Suite 3B, Hanover, New Hampshire 03755-2053 and its registered office is located at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton, Bermuda HM 11. The Company’s website is www.whitemountains.com. The information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into, and is not a part of, this report.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, “White Mountains”) and other entities required to be consolidated under GAAP.
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
Consolidation Principles
Under GAAP, the Company is required to consolidate any entity in which it holds a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest is usually in the form of an investment representing the majority of the subsidiary’s voting interests. However, a controlling financial interest may also arise from a financial interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”) through arrangements that do not involve ownership of voting interests. The Company consolidates a VIE if it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity that holds a variable interest that gives it both the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive returns from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. See Note 16 — “Variable Interest Entities.”
Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reportable Segments
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains conducted its operations through four reportable segments: (1) Ark/WM Outrigger, (2) HG Global, (3) Kudu and (4) Distinguished, with its remaining operating businesses, holding companies and other assets included in Other Operations. White Mountains has made its segment determination based on consideration of the following criteria: (i) the nature of the business activities of each of the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) the manner in which the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates are organized; (iii) the existence of primary managers responsible for specific subsidiaries and affiliates; and (iv) the organization of information provided to the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and its Board of Directors. See Note 15 — “Segment Information.”
F - 8

The Ark/WM Outrigger segment consists of Ark Insurance Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Ark”) and Outrigger Re Ltd. Segregated Account 2023-1 (“WM Outrigger Re”) (collectively with Ark, “Ark/WM Outrigger”). Ark is a specialty property and casualty insurance and reinsurance company that offers a wide range of niche insurance and reinsurance products, including property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health. Ark underwrites select coverages through Lloyd’s Syndicates 4020 and 3902 and Additional Central Settlement Number (“ACSN”) 3832 (collectively, the “Syndicates”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Group Ark Insurance Limited (“GAIL”). White Mountains acquired a controlling ownership interest in Ark on January 1, 2021 (the “Ark Transaction”). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 72.1% of Ark on a basic shares outstanding basis (61.9% after taking account of management’s equity incentives). The remaining shares are owned by current and former employees of Ark. In the future, management rollover shareholders could earn additional shares in Ark if and to the extent that White Mountains achieves certain thresholds for its multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) return. If fully earned, these shares would represent an additional 12.3% of the shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The liability related to these additional shares is recorded as contingent consideration. Outrigger Re Ltd. is a Bermuda special purpose insurer and segregated accounts company that provides collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 100.0% of the preferred equity of its segregated cell, WM Outrigger Re. White Mountains consolidates WM Outrigger Re in its financial statements. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
The HG Global segment consists of HG Global Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “HG Global”) and, prior to its deconsolidation on July 1, 2024, the consolidated results of Build America Mutual Assurance Company (“BAM”). See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.” HG Global was established to fund the startup of BAM and, through its reinsurance subsidiary, HG Re Ltd. (“HG Re”), to provide first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. HG Global, together with its subsidiaries, funded the initial capitalization of BAM through the purchase of $503.0 million of surplus notes issued by BAM (the “BAM Surplus Notes”). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 96.9% of HG Global’s preferred equity and 88.4% of its common equity.
White Mountains does not have an ownership interest in BAM. However, through June 30, 2024, White Mountains was required to consolidate BAM’s results in its financial statements because BAM is a VIE for which White Mountains was the primary beneficiary. BAM’s results were all attributed to noncontrolling interests. On July 1, 2024, HG Re and BAM amended the terms of the first-loss reinsurance treaty (“FLRT”) with respect to certain governance rights held by HG Re. As a result, and in combination with other governance changes at BAM, White Mountains concluded that it no longer has the power to direct BAM’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and is no longer BAM’s primary beneficiary. Accordingly, effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations were presented within the HG Global segment. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
The Kudu segment consists of Kudu Investment Management, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Kudu”). Kudu provides capital solutions for boutique asset and wealth managers for a variety of purposes including generational ownership transfers, management buyouts, acquisition and growth finance and legacy partner liquidity. Kudu also provides strategic advice to managers from time to time. Kudu’s capital solutions are generally structured as noncontrolling equity interests in the form of revenue and earnings participation contracts (“Participation Contracts”) and designed to generate immediate cash yields. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains owned 91.2% and 90.4% of Kudu’s basic units outstanding (77.9% and 77.0% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives).
The Distinguished segment consists of WM Phoenix Parent, L.P. and its subsidiaries d/b/a Distinguished Programs (collectively, “Distinguished”). Distinguished is a full-service MGA and program administrator for specialty property and casualty insurance. Distinguished places insurance across a diversified portfolio of programs broadly grouped into two verticals. The ScaleCo vertical consists of established programs, primarily focused on real estate and hospitality end markets. The GrowthCo vertical consists of start-up programs, focused on a diversified set of specialty property and casualty insurance products across multiple industries. On behalf of its insurance carrier partners, Distinguished typically manages all aspects of the placement process, including product development, marketing, underwriting and policy issuance. Distinguished earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Distinguished does not retain insurance risk. On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.” As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 55.5% of Distinguished on a basic units outstanding basis (43.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives).
F - 9

White Mountains’s other operations consist of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, White Mountains Capital, LLC (“WM Capital”), its other intermediate holding companies, its wholly-owned investment management subsidiary, White Mountains Advisors LLC (“WM Advisors”), investment assets managed by WM Advisors, its interests in Bamboo Ide8 Insurance Services LLC (“Bamboo MGA”) and its subsidiaries through a special purpose vehicle (the “Bamboo SPV”), MediaAlpha, Inc. (“MediaAlpha”), DavidShield PassportCard Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “PassportCard/DavidShield”), BroadStreet Partners, Inc. (“BroadStreet”) through a special purpose vehicle (the “BroadStreet SPV”), Elementum Holdings LP (“Elementum”), White Mountains Partners LLC (“WTM Partners”), Enterprise Electric, LLC d/b/a Enterprise Solutions (“Enterprise Solutions”), two special purpose collateralized reinsurance vehicles that provide reinsurance capacity to Bamboo (the “Bamboo CRVs”), certain other consolidated and unconsolidated entities (“Other Operating Businesses”) and certain other assets (collectively, “Other Operations”).
Held for Sale
White Mountains recognizes assets and liabilities classified as held for sale at the lower of carrying value on the date the asset is initially classified as held for sale or fair value less costs to sell. At the time of reclassification to held for sale, White Mountains ceases recognizing depreciation and amortization on assets held for sale.
On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the sale of a controlling financial interest in WM Pierce Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Bamboo MGA (collectively, the "Bamboo Group"). As a result of the sale, White Mountains deconsolidated the Bamboo Group on December 5, 2025, and Bamboo is no longer a reportable segment. Through December 5, 2025, Bamboo’s results of operations are presented within the Bamboo segment. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.” The Bamboo Group’s assets and liabilities have been presented as held for sale as of December 31, 2024. See Note 20 — “Held for Sale.”
Through December 5, 2025, the Bamboo segment consisted of PM Holdings LLC (“Bamboo Holdings”), Bamboo MGA and Ide8 Re, Inc. (the “Bamboo Captive”) (collectively, “Bamboo”). Bamboo is a capital-light, tech- and data-enabled insurance distribution platform providing homeowners’ insurance and related products to the residential property market in California and, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, in Texas. Bamboo operates primarily through Bamboo MGA, its full-service MGA business, where the company manages all aspects of the placement process on behalf of its fronting and reinsurance carrier partners (“Capacity Providers”), including product development, marketing, underwriting, policy issuance and claims oversight, and it earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Bamboo MGA offers both admitted and non-admitted products.
Significant Accounting Policies
Investment Securities
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains’s invested assets consisted of securities and other investments held for general investment purposes. White Mountains’s portfolio of investment securities held for general investment purposes consists of fixed maturity investments, short-term investments, common equity securities, its investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments. Short-term investments consist of interest-bearing money market funds, certificates of deposit and other fixed maturity securities, which at the time of purchase, mature or become available for use within one year. Short-term investments are carried at fair value, which approximated amortized or accreted cost as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Other long-term investments consist primarily of unconsolidated entities, including Kudu’s Participation Contracts, the Bamboo SPV, PassportCard/DavidShield and the BroadStreet SPV, as well as private equity funds and hedge funds, a bank loan fund and Lloyd’s of London (“Lloyd’s”) trust deposits.
White Mountains’s portfolio of fixed maturity investments, including those within short-term investments, are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are reported at fair value as of the balance sheet date. White Mountains’s portfolio of common equity securities, its investment in MediaAlpha and other long-term investments are measured at fair value. White Mountains has generally taken the fair value option for its equity method eligible investments.
Changes in net unrealized investment gains (losses) are reported pre-tax in revenues. Realized investment gains (losses) are accounted for using the specific identification method and are reported pre-tax in revenues. Premiums and discounts on all fixed maturity investments are amortized and accreted to income over the anticipated life of the investment. Income on mortgage and asset-backed securities is recognized using an effective yield based on anticipated prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities. When actual prepayments differ significantly from anticipated prepayments, the estimated economic life is recalculated, and the remaining unamortized premium or discount is amortized prospectively over the remaining economic life.
F - 10

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price) at a particular measurement date. Fair value measurements are categorized into a hierarchy that distinguishes between inputs based on market data from independent sources (observable inputs) and a reporting entity’s internal assumptions based upon the best information available when external market data is limited or unavailable (unobservable inputs). Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets have the highest priority (“Level 1”), followed by observable inputs other than quoted prices including prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities (“Level 2”) and unobservable inputs, including the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use, having the lowest priority (“Level 3”).
Assets and liabilities carried at fair value include White Mountains’s investment portfolio and derivative instruments. Valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value require management to make estimates and apply judgment to matters that may carry a significant degree of uncertainty. In determining its estimates of fair value, White Mountains uses a variety of valuation approaches and inputs. Whenever possible, White Mountains estimates fair value using valuation methods that maximize the use of quoted market prices or other observable inputs. Where appropriate, assets and liabilities measured at fair value have been adjusted for the effect of counterparty credit risk.
White Mountains uses outside pricing services and brokers to assist in determining fair values. The outside pricing services White Mountains uses have indicated that they will only provide prices where observable inputs are available.
Level 1 Measurements
Investments valued using Level 1 inputs include White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments, primarily investments in U.S. Treasuries and short-term investments, which include U.S. Treasury Bills, common equity securities and its investment in MediaAlpha. For investments in active markets, White Mountains uses the quoted market prices provided by outside pricing services to determine fair value.
Level 2 Measurements
Investments valued using Level 2 inputs include fixed maturity investments which have been disaggregated into classes, including debt securities issued by corporations, municipal obligations, foreign government and agency obligations, mortgage and asset-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations. Investments valued using Level 2 inputs also include certain international listed common equity funds, which White Mountains values using the fund manager’s published net asset value (“NAV”) to account for the difference in market exchange close times, and certain derivative instruments.
In circumstances where quoted market prices are unavailable or are not considered reasonable, White Mountains estimates the fair value using industry standard pricing methodologies and observable inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, credit ratings, prepayment speeds, reference data including research publications and other relevant inputs. Given that many fixed maturity investments do not trade on a daily basis, the outside pricing services evaluate a wide range of fixed maturity investments by regularly drawing parallels from recent trades and quotes of comparable securities with similar features. The characteristics used to identify comparable fixed maturity investments vary by asset type and take into account market convention.
White Mountains’s process to assess the reasonableness of the market prices obtained from the outside pricing sources covers substantially all of its fixed maturity investments and includes, but is not limited to, the evaluation of pricing methodologies and a review of the pricing services’ quality control procedures on at least an annual basis, a comparison of invested asset prices obtained from alternate independent pricing vendors on at least a semi-annual basis, monthly analytical reviews of certain prices and a review of the underlying assumptions utilized by the pricing services for select measurements on an ad hoc basis throughout the year. White Mountains also performs back-testing of selected investment sales activity to determine whether there are any significant differences between the market price used to value the security prior to sale and the actual sale price of the security on an ad-hoc basis throughout the year. Prices provided by the pricing services that vary by more than $0.5 million and 5% from the expected price based on these assessment procedures are considered outliers, as are prices that have not changed from period to period and prices that have trended unusually compared to market conditions. In circumstances where the results of White Mountains’s review process does not appear to support the market price provided by the pricing services, White Mountains challenges the vendor provided price. If White Mountains cannot gain satisfactory evidence to support the challenged price, White Mountains will rely upon its own internal pricing methodologies to estimate the fair value of the security in question.
The valuation process described above is generally applicable to all of White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments. The techniques and inputs specific to asset classes within White Mountains’s fixed maturity investments for Level 2 securities that use observable inputs are as follows:
F - 11

Debt Securities Issued by Corporations
The fair value of debt securities issued by corporations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market sources and integrates relative credit information, observed market movements and sector news. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including sector, coupon, credit quality ratings, duration, credit enhancements, early redemption features and market research publications.
Municipal Obligations
The fair value of municipal obligations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market makers, brokers-dealers, buy-side firms and analysts along with general market information. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, issuer financial statements, material event notices and new issue data, as well as broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including type, coupon, credit quality ratings, duration, credit enhancements, geographic location and market research publications.
Foreign Government and Agency Obligations
The fair value of foreign government and agency obligations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from data sources in each respective country, including active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, local exchange prices, foreign currency exchange rates and reference data including coupon, credit quality ratings, duration and market research publications.
Mortgage and Asset-Backed Securities and Collateralized Loan Obligations
The fair value of mortgage and asset-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market sources and leveraging similar securities. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, underlying tranche cash flow data, collateral performance, plus new issue data, as well as broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including issuer, vintage, loan type, collateral attributes, prepayment speeds, default rates, recovery rates, cash flow stress testing, credit quality ratings and market research publications.
Level 3 Measurements
Fair value estimates for investments that trade infrequently and have few or no quoted market prices or other observable inputs are classified as Level 3 measurements. Investments valued using Level 3 fair value estimates are based upon unobservable inputs and include investments in certain fixed maturity investments, common equity securities and other long-term investments where quoted market prices or other observable inputs are unavailable or are not considered reliable or reasonable.
Level 3 valuations are generated from techniques that use assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable inputs reflect White Mountains’s assumptions of what market participants would use in valuing the investment. In certain circumstances, investment securities may start out as Level 3 when they are originally issued, but as observable inputs become available in the market, they may be reclassified to Level 2. Transfers of securities between levels are based on investments held as of the beginning of the period.
Other Long-Term Investments
As of December 31, 2025, $1,814.4 million of White Mountains’s other long-term investments were classified as Level 3 investments in the GAAP fair value hierarchy, including Kudu’s Participation Contracts, the Bamboo SPV, PassportCard/DavidShield and certain other unconsolidated entities. The determination of the fair value of these securities involves significant management judgment, and the use of valuation analyses and assumptions that are inherently subjective and uncertain.
White Mountains may use a variety of valuation techniques to determine fair value depending on the nature of the investment, including a discounted cash flow analysis, market multiple approach, cost approach and/or liquidation analysis. On an ongoing basis, White Mountains also considers qualitative changes in facts and circumstances, which may impact the valuation of its unconsolidated entities, including economic and market changes in relevant industries, changes to the entity’s capital structure, business strategy and key personnel and any recent transactions. On a quarterly basis, White Mountains evaluates the most recent qualitative and quantitative information of the business and completes a fair valuation analysis for all other long-term investments classified as Level 3 investments. Periodically, and at least on an annual basis, White Mountains uses a third-party valuation firm to complete an independent valuation analysis of significant unconsolidated entities.
F - 12

Other Long-term Investments - NAV
As of December 31, 2025, $1,110.4 million of White Mountains’s other long-term investments were measured at fair value using NAV as a practical expedient, including the BroadStreet SPV, private equity funds and hedge funds, a bank loan fund, Lloyd’s trust deposits and insurance-linked securities (“ILS”) funds. Investments for which fair value is measured using NAV as a practical expedient are not classified within the fair value hierarchy.
White Mountains employs a number of procedures to assess the reasonableness of the fair value measurements for other long-term investments measured at NAV, including obtaining and reviewing interim unaudited and annual audited financial statements as well as periodically discussing the valuations and methodologies used to value the underlying investments of each fund with fund managers. However, since fund managers do not provide sufficient information to evaluate the pricing methods and inputs for each underlying investment, White Mountains considers the valuation inputs to be unobservable. The fair value of White Mountains’s other long-term investments measured at NAV are generally determined using the fund manager’s NAV. Certain other long-term investments measured at NAV may be reported to White Mountains on a lag. In these circumstances, the NAV of such investments is adjusted to account for any applicable contributions, distributions, known transactions and/or pricing estimates provided by the fund manager through White Mountains’s reporting date.
BAM Surplus Notes
Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, the BAM Surplus Notes, including accrued interest receivable, were
classified as intercompany notes carried at nominal value, which eliminated in consolidation. Upon deconsolidation, White
Mountains elected the fair value option for the BAM Surplus Notes. White Mountains values the BAM Surplus Notes each quarter using a discounted cash flow analysis. The BAM Surplus Notes are classified as a Level 3 measurement. Upon election of the fair value option, White Mountains made the accounting policy election to present the interest income from the BAM Surplus Notes separately from the change in fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes. See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance.”
Cash and Restricted Cash
Cash includes amounts on hand and demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions. Amounts presented in the statement of cash flows are shown net of balances acquired and sold in the purchase or sale of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries.
Cash balances that are not immediately available for general corporate and operating purposes are classified as restricted.
Derivatives
From time to time, White Mountains holds derivative financial instruments for risk management purposes. White Mountains recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, measured at fair value, on its consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into current period pre-tax income (loss) when the hedged items are recognized therein. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting are recognized in current period pre-tax income (loss).
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains holds interest rate cap derivative instruments that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. See Note 9 — “Derivatives.”
Property and Casualty Insurance and Reinsurance
Ark writes a diversified portfolio of reinsurance and insurance products, including property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health.
Ark accounts for insurance and reinsurance policies that it writes in accordance with ASC 944, Financial Services - Insurance. Ark’s premiums written comprise premiums on insurance contracts incepted during the year as well as premium adjustments related to prior underwriting years. Insurance premiums are recognized as revenues over the loss exposure or coverage period. In most cases, premiums are earned ratably over the term of the contract, with unearned premiums calculated on a monthly pro-rata basis. Catastrophe premiums are earned in proportion to the insurance protection provided. Premiums earned are presented net of amounts ceded to reinsurers. Insurance premiums receivable, representing amounts due from insureds, are presented net of an allowance for uncollectible premiums, including expected credit losses. The allowance is based upon Ark’s ongoing review of amounts outstanding, historical loss data, including delinquencies and write-offs, current and forecasted economic conditions and other relevant factors. Credit risk is partially mitigated by Ark’s ability to cancel the policy if the policyholder does not pay the premium.
F - 13

Deferred acquisition costs comprise commission and brokerage fees and taxes which are directly attributable to and vary with the production of business. These costs are deferred and amortized to the extent that they relate to successful contract acquisitions over the applicable premium recognition period as acquisition expenses. Deferred acquisition costs are limited to the amount expected to be recovered from future earned premiums and anticipated investment income. A premium deficiency is recognized if the sum of expected loss and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”), expected dividends to policyholders, unamortized acquisition costs and maintenance costs exceeds related unearned premiums and anticipated investment income. A premium deficiency is recognized by charging any unamortized acquisition costs to expense to the extent required in order to eliminate the deficiency. If the premium deficiency exceeds unamortized acquisition costs, then a liability is accrued for the excess deficiency.
Loss and LAE are charged against income as incurred. Loss and LAE reserves, including estimates for amounts incurred but not reported (“IBNR”), are based on management’s best estimate of the ultimate costs to settle claims, including the effects of inflation and other societal and economic factors. Loss and LAE reserves are presented net of estimated salvage and subrogation recoveries, if applicable. Such estimates are regularly reviewed and updated, and any resulting adjustments are reflected in current results of operations. The process of estimating loss and LAE reserves involves a considerable degree of judgment by management, and the ultimate amount of expense to be incurred could be considerably greater than or less than the amounts currently reflected in the financial statements. See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves.”
As part of its enterprise risk management function, Ark purchases reinsurance for risk mitigation purposes. Ark utilizes reinsurance and retrocessional agreements to reduce earnings volatility, protect capital, limit concentration and accumulation risk and manage within its overall internal risk tolerances and/or those set and agreed by regulators, ratings agencies and Lloyd’s. Ark also enters into reinsurance and retrocessional agreements to reduce its exposures on individual risks and enable it to underwrite policies with higher limits where Ark believes this has a broader business benefit. Ark seeks to protect its downside risk from catastrophes and large loss events by purchasing reinsurance, including excess of loss protections, aggregate covers and industry loss warranties. Ark also considers alternative structures such as collateralized reinsurance, retrocessional reinsurance and catastrophe bonds. The purchase of reinsurance does not discharge Ark from its primary liability for the full value of its policies, and thus the collectability of balances due from Ark’s reinsurers is critical to its financial strength. Ark monitors the financial strength and ratings of its reinsurers on an ongoing basis. See Note 6 — “Third-Party Reinsurance.”
Reinsurance recoverables represent paid loss and LAE, case reserves and IBNR reserves ceded to reinsurers under reinsurance treaties. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the associated claims liability. Ark reports its reinsurance recoverables net of an allowance for estimated uncollectible reinsurance, including expected credit losses and coverage disputes. The allowance is based upon Ark’s ongoing review of amounts outstanding, length of collection periods, changes in reinsurer credit standing, disputes, applicable coverage defenses and other relevant factors.
Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance
As of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations are presented within the HG Global segment.
The FLRT and all the contracts issued by BAM are accounted for as insurance contracts under ASC 944-605, Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts. For capital appreciation bonds, par is adjusted to the estimated equivalent par value for current interest paying bonds. Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM, HG Re’s reinsurance balances under the FLRT eliminated in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance.”
Premiums are generally received upfront and an unearned premium reserve, equal to the amount of the premium received, is established at contract inception. Premiums are recognized in revenue over the period of the contracts in proportion to the amount of insurance protection provided using a constant rate. The constant rate is calculated based on the relationship between the par outstanding in a given reporting period compared with the sum of each of the par amounts outstanding for all periods.
HG Re’s insurance premiums receivable represents amounts due from BAM. Installment premiums are measured at the present value of contractual premiums, discounted at the risk-free rate, which is set at the inception of the insurance contract.
F - 14

HG Re’s deferred acquisition costs represent the ceding commission paid to BAM. These costs are deferred and amortized to the extent that they relate to successful contract acquisitions over the applicable premium recognition period as acquisition expenses. Deferred acquisition costs are limited to the amount expected to be recovered from future earned premiums and anticipated investment income. A premium deficiency is recognized if the sum of expected loss and LAE, expected dividends to policyholders, unamortized acquisition costs and maintenance costs exceeds related unearned premiums and anticipated investment income. A premium deficiency is recognized by charging any unamortized acquisition costs to expense to the extent required in order to eliminate the deficiency. If the premium deficiency exceeds unamortized acquisition costs, then a liability is accrued for the excess deficiency.
Loss reserves are recorded only to the extent that the present value of any payments projected to be made, net of any expected recoveries, exceeds the associated unearned premium reserve. See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves.”
Reinsurance Contracts Accounted for as Deposits
Reinsurance contracts that do not meet the risk transfer requirements necessary to be accounted for as reinsurance are accounted for using the deposit method. Under the deposit method, ceded premiums paid are not recognized through income but rather treated as a deposit.
HG Re is party to an excess of loss reinsurance agreement (the “XOLT”) with BAM. The XOLT is accounted for using deposit accounting as the agreement does not meet the risk transfer requirements necessary to be accounted for as reinsurance. Accordingly, any financing revenues related to the XOLT are recorded in other revenues. See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance.”
Revenue Recognition
Kudu’s revenues are primarily generated from Participation Contracts, which are generally noncontrolling equity interests in revenue and earnings participation contracts with asset and wealth management firms. Kudu’s Participation Contracts are measured at fair value with the change therein recognized within net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses). Distributions from Kudu’s managers are recognized through investment income when Kudu’s right to receive payment has been established and can be reliably measured, which generally occurs on a quarterly basis in accordance with the terms of the Participation Contracts.
Bamboo’s revenues consist primarily of commission and fee revenues for placement of insurance policies. Commission and fee revenues are measured based on the contractual rates with insurance carriers, net of any amounts expected to be uncollectible and any amounts associated with expected policy cancellations and adjustments, and are recognized when contractual performance obligations have been fulfilled. Bamboo’s primary contractual performance obligations are generally satisfied upon the issuance of an insurance policy. Bamboo’s premiums, commissions and fees receivable consist of insurance premiums and fees receivable from customers and commissions receivable from insurance carriers, net of a provision for amounts estimated to be uncollectible and any amounts associated with expected policy cancellations and adjustments.
Distinguished’s revenues consist primarily of commission and fee revenues related to its placement of insurance policies. Commission revenues are measured based on the contractual rates with its insurance carriers, net of any amounts expected to be uncollectible and any amounts associated with expected policy cancellations and adjustments, and are recognized when contractual performance obligations have been fulfilled. Distinguished also earns fee revenues, primarily related to risk management services provided to certain insureds, which are recognized when contractual performance obligations have been fulfilled. Distinguished’s primary contractual performance obligations are generally satisfied upon the issuance of an insurance policy. Distinguished’s premiums, commissions and fees receivable consist of insurance premiums and fees receivable from insureds and commissions receivable from insurance carriers, net of a provision for amounts estimated to be uncollectible and any amounts associated with expected policy cancellations and adjustments. Premiums receivable are collected on behalf of Distinguished’s insurance carriers. Distinguished’s premiums and commissions payable consist of insurance premiums payable to insurance carriers and commissions payable to sub-agents and brokers.
Other Operations recognizes commissions and fee revenues as well as other revenues when it has satisfied its performance obligations. Enterprise Solutions’s revenues consist primarily of construction revenues from specialty electrical contracting services provided to commercial and institutional customers. Enterprise Solutions’s billings are generally based on contractual terms and may not coincide with its progress in a project. Construction revenues, which are presented within other revenues, are recognized over time using the cost-to-cost percentage of completion input method, based on the ratio of contract costs incurred to date compared to total estimated contract costs. Contract costs incurred to date and expected total contract costs are continuously monitored during the term of the contract. Enterprise Solutions records accounts receivable, which are presented within other assets, for amounts billed to the customer, net of a provision for amounts estimated to be uncollectible. If the recognized revenue is greater than the amount billed to the customer, a contract asset is recorded within other assets. Contract assets also include amounts billed under retainage provisions that cannot be collected until the contract work has been completed and approved. If the amount billed to the customer is greater than the recognized revenue, a contract liability is recorded within other liabilities.
F - 15

Broker Commission Expenses and Cost of Sales
Bamboo’s broker commission expenses consist of commissions paid to sub-agents and brokers. Broker commission expense is measured in accordance with contractual terms and recognized when incurred, which is generally at the policy issuance date.
Distinguished’s broker commission expenses consist of commissions paid to sub-agents and brokers. Broker commission expense is measured in accordance with contractual terms and recognized when incurred, which is generally at the policy issuance date.
Other Operations recognizes cost of sales consisting of salaries and related expenses, professional services and marketing and advertising expenses directly related to sales generation. These expenses are recognized as incurred.
Incentive Compensation
White Mountains’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “WTM Incentive Plan”) provides for grants of various types of share-based and non-share-based incentive awards to key employees of White Mountains. Non-share-based awards are recognized over the related service periods based on management’s best estimate of the amounts at which the awards are expected to be paid. Share-based compensation which is typically settled in cash, such as performance shares, is classified as a liability-type award. The compensation cost for liability-classified awards is measured initially at the grant date fair value and remeasured each reporting period until settlement. The compensation cost for equity-classified awards expected to be settled in shares, such as restricted shares, is measured at the original grant date fair value of the award. The compensation cost for all awards is recognized for the vested portion of the awards over the related service periods. See Note 12 — “Employee Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans.”
Income Taxes
White Mountains has subsidiaries and branches that operate in various jurisdictions around the world and are subject to tax in the jurisdictions in which they operate. As of December 31, 2025, the primary jurisdictions in which the Company’s subsidiaries and branches operate and were subject to tax include Israel, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom and the United States. Income earned or losses generated by companies outside the United States are generally subject to an overall effective tax rate lower than that imposed by the United States.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded when a difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts for tax purposes exists, or there are other temporary differences. The deferred tax asset or liability is recorded based on tax rates expected to be in effect when the difference reverses. Deferred tax assets represent amounts available to reduce income taxes payable in future periods. White Mountains records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if it becomes more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in income tax expense in the period of change. See Note 8 — “Income Taxes.”
Leases
White Mountains has entered into lease agreements, primarily for office space and equipment. These leases are classified as operating leases, with lease expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease assets and liabilities are not recorded for leases with a term at inception of one year or less. Lease incentives, such as free rent or landlord reimbursements for leasehold improvements, are recognized at lease inception and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease expense and the amortization of leasehold improvements are recognized within general and administrative expenses. Lease payments related to options to extend or renew the lease term are excluded from the calculation of lease liabilities unless White Mountains is reasonably certain of exercising those options.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the right-of-use assets were $51.2 million and $32.6 million, and the lease liabilities were $56.2 million and $35.5 million.
F - 16

Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests consist of the ownership interests of noncontrolling shareholders in consolidated entities. White Mountains has both redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests. Noncontrolling interests with redemption features that are not within White Mountains’s control are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests, which are considered temporary equity and presented as mezzanine equity on the balance sheet. Redeemable noncontrolling interests are excluded from White Mountains’s total equity. The redeemable noncontrolling interests relate to Distinguished. Noncontrolling interests that do not have any redemption features are classified as nonredeemable noncontrolling interests, which are considered permanent equity and included in White Mountains’s total equity on the balance sheet. Nonredeemable noncontrolling interests are presented separately from White Mountains’s common shareholders’ equity. See Note 13 — “Common Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests.”
Comprehensive income (loss) is attributable to both redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests and is presented net of related income taxes in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). In addition, White Mountains recognizes an adjustment to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests to the extent that the carrying value is below the redemption value. The adjustment for redeemable noncontrolling interests is recognized through White Mountains’s common shareholders’ equity. When calculating basic and diluted earnings per share, the adjustment for redeemable noncontrolling interests is treated as being akin to a dividend and presented as an adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders.
Foreign Currency Exchange
The functional currencies for White Mountains’s non-U.S. based subsidiaries are measured, in most instances, using currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Net foreign currency exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of functional currencies are generally reported in shareholders’ equity, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
White Mountains also invests in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Assets and liabilities recorded in these foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are converted using the weighted average exchange rates for the period.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains had unrealized foreign currency translation gains (losses) of $0.8 million and $(1.7) million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on its consolidated balance sheet.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value measurements are categorized into a hierarchy that distinguishes between inputs based on market data from independent sources (observable inputs) and a reporting entity’s internal assumptions based upon the best information available when external market data is limited or unavailable (unobservable inputs). Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities have the highest priority (Level 1), followed by observable inputs other than quoted prices, including prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities (Level 2) and unobservable inputs, including the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use, having the lowest priority (Level 3). See Note 18 — “Fair Value of Financial Instruments.”
Business Combinations
White Mountains accounts for purchases of businesses using the acquisition method, which requires the measurement of assets acquired, including other intangible assets, liabilities assumed, including contingent consideration liabilities, and any noncontrolling interests in the acquired entities at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The acquisition date fair values represent management’s best estimates and are based upon established valuation techniques, reasonable assumptions and, where appropriate, valuations performed by independent third parties. In circumstances where additional information is required in order to determine the acquisition date fair value of balance sheet amounts, provisional amounts may be recorded as of the acquisition date and may be subject to subsequent adjustment throughout the measurement period, which is up to one year from the acquisition date. Measurement period adjustments are recognized in the period in which they are determined. The results of operations and cash flows of businesses acquired are included in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date. White Mountains accounts for purchases of other intangible assets that do not meet the definition of a business as asset acquisitions. Asset acquisitions are recognized at the amount of consideration paid, which is deemed to equal fair value.
F - 17

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Under the acquisition method, White Mountains recognizes and measures the assets acquired, including other intangible assets, at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the amount paid to acquire a business over the fair value of identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.
Other intangible assets consist primarily of underwriting capacity, agency relationships, customer relationships and trade names. The acquisition date fair values of other intangible assets are estimated using income approach techniques, which use future expected cash flows to develop a discounted present value amount. The multi-period-excess-earnings method estimates fair value using the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable solely to the other intangible asset over its remaining life. This approach was used to estimate the fair value of other intangible assets associated with the underwriting capacity, agency relationships and customer relationships. The relief-from-royalty method was used to estimate fair value for other intangible assets that relate to rights that could be obtained via a license from a third-party owner. Under this method, the fair value is estimated using the present value of license fees avoided by owning rather than leasing the asset. This technique was used to estimate the fair value of trade names, patents and certain information technology platforms. The with-or-without method estimates the fair value of other intangible assets that provide an incremental benefit. Under this method, the fair value of the other intangible asset is calculated by comparing the value of the entity with and without the other intangible asset. This approach was used to estimate the fair value of non-compete agreements.
Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but rather are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever indications of potential impairment exist. In the absence of any indications of potential impairment, the evaluation of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets is performed no later than the interim period in which the anniversary of the acquisition date falls. White Mountains initially evaluates goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets using a qualitative approach (step zero) to determine whether it is more likely than not that the implied fair value is greater than the carrying value. If the results of the qualitative evaluation indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of goodwill or the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeds the implied fair value, White Mountains performs a quantitative analysis to compare the fair value with the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, then an impairment charge is recognized through current period pre-tax income (loss).
Other intangible assets with finite lives are initially measured at their acquisition date fair values and subsequently amortized over their economic lives. Finite-lived intangible assets are presented net of accumulated amortization on the balance sheet. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events occur or there are changes in circumstances indicating that their carrying value may exceed fair value. An impairment exists when the carrying value of a finite-lived intangible asset exceeds the fair value. See Note 4 — “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”
Contingent Consideration Liabilities
The consideration for the Ark Transaction included potential future payments to management rollover shareholders, which are payable in a variable number of shares, if and to the extent that White Mountains achieves certain MOIC return thresholds. This additional consideration is generally payable in three equal tranches at MOIC thresholds of 2.0x, 2.5x and 3.0x. If fully earned, these shares would represent an additional 12.3% of the shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The liability related to these additional shares is recorded as contingent consideration. Contingent consideration in a business combination that is classified as a liability is measured at fair value on the acquisition date and remeasured to fair value each subsequent reporting period with changes in the fair value recognized through pre-tax income (loss). As a result of the Ark Transaction, White Mountains recognized a contingent consideration liability of $22.5 million as of January 1, 2021. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, White Mountains recognized an expense of $173.0 million, $61.3 million and $48.7 million for the change in the fair value of its contingent consideration liability. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains’s contingent consideration liability was $328.3 million and $155.3 million. The contingent consideration liability is a Level 3 measurement.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosures about specific types of expenses (i.e., (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation and (d) intangible asset amortization) included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 does not change the requirements for the presentation of expenses on the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Although ASU 2024-03 requires comparative disclosures for all periods presented, reporting entities will be permitted to begin applying the guidance prospectively with the option for retrospective application for all prior periods presented. Accordingly, the new disclosure requirements in ASU 2024-03 are initially required within White Mountains’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2027. White Mountains is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its financial statements.
Note 2. Significant Transactions
Bamboo
Bamboo Acquisition
On January 2, 2024, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Bamboo. White Mountains paid $296.7 million of cash consideration, which included $36.0 million to retire Bamboo’s legacy credit facility and a $20.0 million contribution of primary capital to Bamboo. At closing, White Mountains owned 72.8% of Bamboo on a basic shares outstanding basis (63.7% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives), while Bamboo management owned 16.1% of basic shares outstanding (26.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted).
White Mountains recognized total assets acquired related to the Bamboo Transaction of $479.5 million, total liabilities assumed of $91.7 million and noncontrolling interests of $111.1 million reflecting acquisition date fair values. Total assets acquired included $371.4 million of goodwill and other intangible assets. See Note 4 — “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” In connection with the acquisition, White Mountains incurred transaction costs of $4.0 million in Other Operations, of which $0.3 million were expensed in the first quarter of 2024.
Bamboo’s segment revenue and earnings since the acquisition are presented in Note 15 — “Segment Information.”
Bamboo Sale Transaction
On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the sale of a controlling financial interest in the Bamboo Group to affiliates of funds advised by CVC Capital Partners (“CVC”), pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement dated October 2, 2025 (the “Bamboo SPA”). Under the terms of the Bamboo SPA, White Mountains sold approximately 77.3% of its equity interest in the Bamboo Group for net cash proceeds at closing of $847.9 million and retained an indirect equity interest valued at $250.0 million (the “Bamboo Sale Transaction”). The proceeds are subject to customary purchase price adjustments. At closing, $3.6 million of proceeds attributable to White Mountains were held in escrow, which are expected to be released in the first half of 2026.
White Mountains reported a net gain of $816.3 million, which was comprised of an $849.3 million net gain on sale of the Bamboo Group, partially offset by $33.0 million of parent compensation costs recorded within general and administrative expenses. White Mountains’s net gain on sale of the Bamboo Group includes $188.6 million attributable to its retained interest in Bamboo based on the allocation of the equity value at closing between the percentage sold and the percentage retained.
White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the Bamboo SPV is accounted for at fair value in other long-term investments within Other Operations and is valued at $250.0 million as of December 31, 2025 based on the value implied by the Bamboo Sale Transaction. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had a 27.9% limited partnership interest in the Bamboo SPV. As of December 31, 2025, on a look-through basis, White Mountains owned 17.2% of the basic units outstanding of Bamboo (14.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives).
F - 19

Distinguished
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished (the “Distinguished Transaction”). White Mountains funded the Distinguished Transaction through a combination of cash on hand and new borrowings by Distinguished. White Mountains paid $224.8 million of cash consideration, including a post-closing purchase price adjustment of $0.5 million. In addition, Distinguished borrowed $50.0 million of incremental debt and utilized $6.8 million of cash on hand as part of the transaction. At closing, White Mountains owned 55.5%, inclusive of its 1.7% previously-held interest, of Distinguished on a basic units outstanding basis (43.6% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives). At closing, 4.2% of the basic units outstanding are owned by Distinguished management (24.7% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis). As part of the Distinguished Transaction, WM Phoenix GP, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, became the general partner of Distinguished. As the general partner, White Mountains has control over all activities of Distinguished subject to consent rights held by certain limited partners. As a result, White Mountains will continue to control Distinguished even if its economic interest falls below 50%. See Note 16 — “Variable Interest Entities.”
On September 5, 2028, the third anniversary of the closing of the Distinguished Transaction, certain noncontrolling unitholders will have the option to sell additional units representing 31.4% of Distinguished’s basic units outstanding to White Mountains at the same unit price paid in the Distinguished Transaction less aggregate per unit distributions. Noncontrolling interests with optional redemption features that are not within White Mountains’s control are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests. See Note 13 — “Common Shareholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interests.” In addition, White Mountains will have the parallel option to purchase such units at 1.35 times the unit price paid in the Distinguished Transaction less aggregate per unit distributions. As of December 31, 2025, the redemption value would be $131.5 million if exercised in full.
White Mountains recognized total assets acquired related to the Distinguished Transaction of $743.9 million, including goodwill and other intangible assets of $618.8 million, total liabilities assumed of $249.7 million, redeemable noncontrolling interests of $133.5 million and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests of $73.8 million, reflecting provisional acquisition date fair values. In connection with the acquisition, White Mountains incurred transaction costs of $6.8 million in Other Operations.
The following presents additional details of the net assets acquired as of the September 2, 2025 acquisition date:

Millions |  | As of September 2, 2025 |
Short-term investments, at fair value |  | $ | 78.1 |
Cash (restricted $0.4) |  | 1.1 |
Premiums, commissions and fees receivable |  | 34.6 |
Other assets |  | 11.3 |
Debt |  | (100.6) |
Premiums and commissions payable |  | (72.9) |
Other liabilities |  | (52.2) |
Net tangible assets acquired (liabilities assumed) |  | (100.6) |
Goodwill |  | 420.6 |
Other intangible assets |  | 198.2 |
Deferred tax liabilities related to investment basis differences |  | (24.0) |
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 494.2 |

Net tangible assets acquired and the resulting goodwill and other intangible assets were recorded at fair value using Level 3 inputs. The majority of the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their carrying values, as their carrying values approximated fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair values of other intangible assets were internally estimated based primarily on the income approach. The income approach estimates fair value based on the present value of the cash flows that the assets are expected to generate in the future. White Mountains developed internal estimates for the expected future cash flows and discount rates used in the present value calculations. See Note 4 — “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”
The value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests was recorded at the acquisition date fair value based on the valuation implied in the Distinguished Transaction, adjusted for the value of the embedded put and call rights. The value of the embedded put and call rights was estimated using an option pricing approach, incorporating assumptions for expected volatility, time to exercise, risk-free interest rates and other contractual terms of the instruments.
The value of the nonredeemable noncontrolling interests was recorded at the acquisition date fair value based on the valuation implied in the Distinguished Transaction.
Distinguished’s segment revenues and earnings since acquisition are presented in Note 15 — “Segment Information.”
On November 1, 2025, Distinguished sold a small, non-core ScaleCo program for net proceeds of $33.6 million. Goodwill of $23.6 million and other intangible assets of $9.3 million were attributed to the business sold and derecognized as a result of the sale.

BroadStreet
On July 18, 2025, White Mountains deployed $150.0 million into BroadStreet through the BroadStreet SPV. BroadStreet is an insurance brokerage company with a presence in all 50 U.S. states and ten Canadian provinces. BroadStreet focuses on commercial and personal property & casualty insurance and employee benefits. White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the BroadStreet SPV is accounted for at fair value using NAV as a practical expedient and is included within other long-term investments. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of White Mountains’s interest in the BroadStreet SPV was $160.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had a 10.9% limited partnership interest in the BroadStreet SPV and a less than 5% ownership interest in BroadStreet on a look-through basis. See Note 16 — “Variable Interest Entities.”
BAM
On July 1, 2024, HG Re and BAM amended the terms of the FLRT with respect to certain governance rights held by HG Re. As a result, and in combination with other governance changes at BAM, White Mountains concluded that it no longer has the power to direct BAM’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and is no longer BAM’s primary beneficiary. Accordingly, effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. See Note 16 — “Variable Interest Entities.” Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations were presented within the HG Global segment.
Upon deconsolidation, the BAM Surplus Notes met the criteria to be accounted for under the fair value option, which White Mountains elected. Accordingly, the BAM Surplus Notes, including accrued interest receivable, were carried at a fair value of $387.4 million as of July 1, 2024 resulting in an unrealized loss on deconsolidation of $114.5 million. See Note 10 — “Municipal Bond Guarantee Reinsurance” for the valuation techniques and inputs utilized to determine the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes.
WM Outrigger Re
During the fourth quarter of 2022, Ark sponsored the formation of Outrigger Re Ltd., a Bermuda company registered as a special purpose insurer and segregated accounts company, to provide reinsurance capacity to Ark. Outrigger Re Ltd. was initially capitalized with $250.0 million of preference shares for business written in the 2023 underwriting year, of which White Mountains contributed $205.0 million. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors. Outrigger Re Ltd. entered into collateralized quota share agreements with GAIL to provide reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. The proceeds from the issuance of the preference shares were deposited into collateral trust accounts to fund any potential obligations under the reinsurance agreements with GAIL. Outrigger Re Ltd.’s obligations under the reinsurance agreements with GAIL are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in the collateral trusts at any point in time. The terms of the reinsurance agreements are renewable upon the mutual agreement of Ark and the applicable preference shareholder of Outrigger Re Ltd.
White Mountains owns 100% of the preference shares linked to its segregated account, WM Outrigger Re. White Mountains consolidates WM Outrigger Re’s results in its financial statements. WM Outrigger Re’s quota share reinsurance agreement with GAIL eliminates in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 16 — “Variable Interest Entities.”
During the fourth quarter of 2023, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2024 underwriting year with $250.0 million of capital. White Mountains rolled over $130.0 million from its commitment to the 2023 underwriting year. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2025 underwriting year with $230.0 million of capital. White Mountains’s total commitment was $150.0 million, of which $130.0 million was rolled over from its commitment to the 2024 underwriting year. The remaining capital was provided by third-party investors. The reduced capacity at Outrigger Re Ltd. was replaced by Ark through traditional quota share reinsurance agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2024, White Mountains received net distributions of $122.7 million from WM Outrigger Re, which included a net return of capital related to changes in White Mountains’s capital commitments for the 2024 and 2025 underwriting years and reinsurance profits for the 2023 underwriting year. During the year ended December 31, 2024, WM Outrigger Re commuted its reinsurance agreement with GAIL for the 2023 underwriting year.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2026 underwriting year with $70.0 million of capital. The reduced capacity at Outrigger Re Ltd. was replaced by Ark through traditional quota share reinsurance agreements. The capital was provided entirely by third-party investors excluding White Mountains. During the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains received net distributions of $9.5 million from WM Outrigger Re, related primarily to reinsurance profits for the 2024 underwriting year. In January 2026, White Mountains received a distribution of $127.7 million, which included a net return of capital related to its non-renewal for the 2026 underwriting year.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, investments of $245.7 million and $203.7 million were held in a collateral trust account required to be maintained in relation to WM Outrigger Re’s reinsurance agreement with GAIL.

On April 1, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Enterprise Solutions (the “Enterprise Solutions Transaction”). Enterprise Solutions provides specialty electrical contracting services to commercial and institutional customers. White Mountains funded the Enterprise Solutions Transaction through a combination of cash on hand and new borrowings by Enterprise Solutions. White Mountains paid $58.3 million of cash consideration, which included a post-acquisition contribution of $1.5 million, and Enterprise Solutions borrowed $15.0 million in new debt as part of the transaction. At closing, White Mountains owned 65.5% of Enterprise Solutions on a basic units outstanding basis (59.0% on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management’s equity incentives). This is the first acquisition by WTM Partners.
White Mountains recognized total assets acquired related to Enterprise Solutions of $176.4 million, total liabilities assumed of $74.4 million and noncontrolling interests of $30.6 million, reflecting provisional acquisition date fair values. Total assets acquired included $57.7 million of goodwill and $37.6 million of other intangible assets, reflecting provisional acquisition date fair values. In connection with the acquisition, White Mountains incurred transaction costs of $3.0 million in Other Operations.
Unaudited Supplemental Pro Forma Information
White Mountains’s unaudited pro forma revenues were $3,891.4 million and $2,558.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, which include revenues from Distinguished and Enterprise Solutions as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2024. The pro forma revenues are presented for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that White Mountains would have recognized had the acquisitions actually been completed on January 1, 2024.

Fair Value Measurements by Level
The following tables present White Mountains’s fair value measurements for investments as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 by level. See Note 1 — “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies.” The major security types were based on the legal form of the securities. White Mountains has disaggregated its fixed maturity investments based on the issuing entity type, which impacts credit quality, with debt securities issued by U.S. government entities carrying minimal credit risk, while the credit and other risks associated with other issuers, such as corporations, foreign governments and agencies, municipalities, entities issuing mortgage and asset-backed securities or entities issuing collateralized loan obligations vary depending on the nature of the issuing entity type. White Mountains further disaggregates debt securities issued by corporations by industry sector because investors often reference commonly used benchmarks and their subsectors to monitor risk and performance. Accordingly, White Mountains has further disaggregated this asset class into subclasses based on the similar sectors and industry classifications it uses to evaluate investment risk and performance against commonly used benchmarks, such as the Bloomberg U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Index.

Investments in private equity funds are generally subject to a lock-up period during which investors may not request a redemption. Distributions prior to the expected termination date of the fund may be limited to dividends or proceeds arising from the liquidation of the fund’s underlying investments. In addition, certain private equity funds have the option to extend the lock-up period.
The following table presents investments in private equity funds that were subject to lock-up periods as of December 31, 2025:

Millions |  | 1 – 3 years |  | 3 – 5 years |  | 5 – 10 years |  | >10 years |  | Total
Private equity funds — expected lock-up period remaining |  | $ | 57.2 |  |  | $ | 8.0 |  |  | $ | 161.7 |  |  | $ | 24.3 |  |  | $ | 251.2 |

Investors in private equity funds are generally subject to indemnification obligations outside of the capital commitment period and prior to the winding up of the fund. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains is not aware of any indemnification claims relating to its investments in private equity funds.
Redemption of investments in most hedge funds is subject to restrictions, including lock-up periods where no redemptions or withdrawals are allowed, restrictions on redemption frequency and advance notice periods for redemptions. Amounts requested for redemptions remain subject to market fluctuations until the redemption effective date, which generally falls at the end of the defined redemption period. White Mountains’s hedge fund investments are subject to monthly and quarterly restrictions on redemptions and advance written redemption notice period requirements that range between 45 and 90 calendar days.
Bank Loan Fund
White Mountains’s other long-term investments include a bank loan fund with a fair value of $308.5 million and $264.7 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The fair value of this investment is estimated using the NAV of the fund. The bank loan fund’s investment objective is to provide, on an unleveraged basis, high current income consistent with preservation of capital and low duration. The bank loan fund primarily invests in a broad portfolio of U.S. dollar-denominated, non-investment grade, floating-rate senior secured loans and may invest in other financial instruments, such as secured and unsecured corporate debt, credit default swaps, reverse repurchase agreements, synthetic indices and cash and cash equivalents.
The investment in the bank loan fund is subject to restrictions on redemption frequency and advance notice periods for redemptions. Amounts requested for redemptions remain subject to market fluctuations until the redemption effective date, which generally falls at the end of the defined redemption period. White Mountains may redeem all or a portion of its bank loan fund investment as of any calendar month-end upon 15 calendar days advanced written notice.

Lloyd’s Trust Deposits
White Mountains’s other long-term investments include Lloyd’s trust deposits, which consist of non-U.K. deposits and Canadian comingled pooled funds. The Lloyd’s trust deposits invest primarily in short-term government securities, agency securities and corporate bonds held in trusts that are managed by Lloyd's of London. These investments are generally required of Lloyd's syndicates to protect policyholders in non-U.K. markets and are pledged into Lloyd’s trust accounts to provide a portion of the capital needed to support obligations at Lloyd’s. The fair value of the Lloyd’s trust deposits is generally estimated using the NAV of the funds. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains held Lloyd’s trust deposits with a fair value of $180.4 million and $149.9 million.
ILS Funds
White Mountains’s other long-term investments include ILS fund investments. The fair value of these investments is generally estimated using the NAV of the funds. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains held investments in ILS funds with a fair value of $50.1 million and $74.0 million.
Investments in ILS funds are generally subject to restrictions, including lock-up periods where no redemptions or withdrawals are allowed, non-renewal clauses, restrictions on redemption frequency and advance notice periods for redemptions. From time to time, natural catastrophe, liquidity, market or other events will occur that make the determination of fair value for underlying investments in ILS funds less certain due to the potential for loss development. In such circumstances, the impacted investments may be subject to additional lock-up provisions.
ILS funds are typically subject to monthly and annual restrictions on redemptions and advance redemption notice period requirements that range between 30 and 90 calendar days. Amounts requested for redemption remain subject to market fluctuations until the redemption effective date, which is generally at the end of the defined redemption period or when the underlying investment has fully matured or been commuted.
Infrastructure Fund
In 2025, Ark made a $100.0 million commitment to invest in an open-ended pooled investment fund focused on making equity investments in essential service infrastructure assets. The fund has a 4-year lock-up period, subject to the discretion of the manager. Redemptions of all or a portion of the fund are allowable semi-annually with a 90-day written notice. Ark anticipates that the initial capital call will occur in the second quarter of 2026.
Rollforward of Level 3 Investments
Level 3 measurements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 consist of securities for which the estimated fair value has not been determined based upon quoted market price inputs for identical or similar securities.

Note 4. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
White Mountains accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, White Mountains recognizes and measures the assets acquired, including other intangible assets, and liabilities assumed, including contingent consideration liabilities, at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Goodwill represents the excess of the amount paid to acquire a business over the fair value of identifiable net assets at the acquisition date. The estimated acquisition date fair values, generally consisting of intangible assets and contingent consideration liabilities, may be recorded at provisional amounts in circumstances where the information necessary to complete the acquisition accounting is not available at the reporting date. Any such provisional amounts are finalized as measurement period adjustments within one year of the acquisition date.
The following table presents the economic life, acquisition date fair value, accumulated amortization and net carrying value for goodwill and other intangible assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Note 5. Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves
Loss and LAE reserves are typically comprised of case reserves for claims reported and reserves for losses that have occurred but for which claims have not yet been reported, referred to as IBNR reserves. IBNR reserves include a provision for expected future development on case reserves. Case reserves are estimated based on the experience and knowledge of claims staff regarding the nature and potential cost of each claim and are adjusted as additional information becomes known or payments are made. IBNR reserves are derived by subtracting paid loss and LAE and case reserves from estimates of ultimate loss and LAE. Actuaries estimate ultimate loss and LAE using various generally accepted actuarial methods applied to known losses and other relevant information. Like case reserves, IBNR reserves are adjusted as additional information becomes known or payments are made. Below is a discussion of White Mountains’s loss and LAE reserves related to the Ark/WM Outrigger, HG Global and Bamboo segments as well as Other Operations.
Ark/WM Outrigger
Ark establishes loss and LAE reserves that are estimates of amounts needed to pay claims and related expenses in the future for insured events that have already occurred. Ark’s process of estimating reserves involves a considerable degree of judgment by management and, as of any given date, is inherently uncertain.
WM Outrigger Re entered into a quota share agreement with GAIL to provide collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. Ark renewed its quota share reinsurance agreement with WM Outrigger Re for the 2024 and 2025 underwriting years. WM Outrigger Re’s quota share reinsurance agreement with GAIL, including its loss and LAE reserves, eliminates in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. WM Outrigger Re did not participate in the 2026 underwriting year.
Loss and LAE are categorized by the year in which the policy is underwritten (the year of account, or underwriting year) for purposes of Ark’s claims management and estimation of the ultimate loss and LAE reserves. For purposes of Ark’s reporting under GAAP, loss and LAE are categorized by the year in which the claim is incurred (the accident year).
Ultimate loss and LAE are generally determined by extrapolation of claims emergence and settlement patterns observed in the past that can reasonably be expected to persist into the future. In forecasting ultimate loss and LAE for any line of business, past experience with respect to that line of business is the primary resource, but cannot be relied upon in isolation. Ark’s own experience, particularly claims development experience, such as trends in case reserves, payments on and closings of claims, as well as changes in business mix and coverage limits, is the most important information for estimating its loss and LAE reserves. External data, available from organizations such as the Lloyd’s Market Association, consulting firms and other insurance and reinsurance companies, is used to supplement or corroborate Ark’s own experience. External data can be especially useful for estimating costs on newer lines of business. Ultimate loss and LAE for major losses and catastrophes are estimated based on the known and expected exposures to the loss event, rather than simply relying on the extrapolation of reported and settled claims.
For some lines of business, such as long-tail coverages discussed below, claims data reported in the most recent years of account are often too limited to provide a meaningful basis for analysis due to the typical delay in reporting and settling of claims. For this type of business, Ark uses an expected loss ratio method for the initial years of account. This is a standard and accepted actuarial reserve estimation method in these circumstances in which the loss ratio is selected based upon information used in pricing policies for that line of business, as well as any publicly available industry data, such as industry pricing, experience and trends.
Uncertainties in estimating ultimate loss and LAE are magnified by the time lag between when a claim actually occurs and when it is reported and eventually settled. This time lag is sometimes referred to as the “claim-tail.” The claim-tail for reinsurance and insurance obtained through brokers, MGAs and reinsurance intermediaries (collectively, the “insurance and reinsurance intermediaries”) is further extended because claims are first reported to either the original primary insurance company or the insurance and reinsurance intermediaries. The claim-tail for most property coverages is typically short (usually a few days up to a few months). Settlements for casualty/liability coverages can extend for long periods of time as claims are often reported and ultimately paid or settled years after the related loss events occur. During the long claims reporting and settlement period, additional facts regarding coverages written in prior years of account, as well as about actual claims and trends, may become known and, as a result, Ark may adjust its reserves. The inherent uncertainties of estimating loss and LAE reserves are increased by the diversity of loss development patterns among different types of reinsurance treaties, facultative contracts or direct insurance contracts, the necessary reliance on the ceding companies and insurance and reinsurance intermediaries for information regarding reported claims and the differing reserving practices among ceding companies and insurance and reinsurance intermediaries.
If management determines that an adjustment is appropriate, the adjustment is booked in the accounting period in which such determination is made. Accordingly, should reserves need to be increased or decreased in the future from amounts currently established, future results of operations would be negatively or positively impacted.

In determining ultimate loss and LAE, the cost to indemnify claimants, provide needed legal defense and other services for insureds and administer the investigation and adjustment of claims are considered. These claims costs are influenced by many factors that change over time, such as expanded coverage definitions as a result of new court decisions, inflation in costs to repair or replace damaged property, inflation in the cost of medical services and legislated changes in statutory benefits, as well as by the unique facts that pertain to each claim. As a result, the rate at which claims arose in the past and the costs to settle them may not always be representative of what will occur in the future. The factors influencing changes in claims costs are often difficult to isolate or quantify and developments in paid and incurred losses from historical trends are frequently subject to multiple and conflicting interpretations. Changes in coverage terms or claims handling practices may also cause future experience and/or development patterns to vary from the past. A key objective of actuaries in developing estimates of ultimate loss and LAE and resulting IBNR reserves is to identify aberrations and systemic changes occurring within historical experience and accurately adjust for them so that the future can be projected more reliably. Because of the factors previously discussed, this process requires the use of informed judgment and is inherently uncertain.
Ark performs an actuarial review of its recorded loss and LAE reserves each quarter, using several generally accepted actuarial methods to evaluate its loss reserves, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses. Management places more or less reliance on a particular method based on the facts and circumstances at the time the reserve estimates are made. These methods generally fall into one of the following categories or are hybrids of one or more of the following categories:
•Historical paid loss development methods: These methods use historical loss payments over discrete periods of time to estimate future losses. Historical paid loss development methods assume that the ratio of losses paid in one period to losses paid in an earlier period will remain constant. These methods necessarily assume that factors that have affected paid losses in the past, such as inflation or the effects of litigation, will remain constant in the future. Because historical paid loss development methods do not use case reserves to estimate ultimate losses, they can be more reliable than the other methods discussed below that look to case reserves (such as actuarial methods that use incurred losses) in situations where there are significant changes in how case reserves are established by a company’s claims adjusters. However, historical paid loss development methods are more leveraged, meaning that small changes in payments have a larger impact on estimates of ultimate losses, than actuarial methods that use incurred losses because cumulative loss payments take much longer to approach the expected ultimate losses than cumulative incurred amounts. In addition, and for similar reasons, historical paid loss development methods are often slow to react to situations when new or different factors arise than those that have affected paid losses in the past.
•Historical incurred loss development methods: These methods, like historical paid loss development methods, assume that the ratio of losses in one period to losses in an earlier period will remain constant in the future. However, instead of using paid losses, these methods use incurred losses (i.e., the sum of cumulative historical loss payments plus outstanding case reserves) over discrete periods of time to estimate future losses. Historical incurred loss development methods can be preferable to historical paid loss development methods because they explicitly take into account open cases and the claims adjusters’ evaluations of the cost to settle all known claims. However, historical incurred loss development methods necessarily assume that case reserving practices are consistently applied over time. Therefore, when there have been significant changes in how case reserves are established, using incurred loss data to project ultimate losses can be less reliable than other methods.
•Expected loss ratio methods: These methods are based on the assumption that ultimate losses vary proportionately with premiums. Expected loss ratios are typically developed based upon the information used in pricing and are multiplied by the total amount of premiums earned to calculate ultimate losses. Expected loss ratio methods are useful for estimating ultimate losses in the early years of long-tail lines of business, when little or no paid or incurred loss information is available.
•Bornhuetter-Ferguson methods: These methods are a blend of the expected loss ratio and loss development methods. The percent of incurred (or paid) loss to ultimate loss implied by the selected development pattern from the incurred (or paid) loss development method is used to determine the percentage of ultimate loss yet to be developed. Inception to date losses are added to losses yet to be developed, yielding an estimate of ultimate for each year of account.
•Adjusted historical paid and incurred loss development methods: These methods take traditional historical paid and incurred loss development methods and adjust them for the estimated impact of changes from the past in factors such as inflation, the speed of claims payment or the adequacy of case reserves. Adjusted historical paid and incurred loss development methods are often more reliable methods of predicting ultimate losses in periods of significant change, provided the actuaries can develop methods to reasonably quantify the impact of changes.

As part of Ark’s quarterly actuarial review, Ark compares the previous quarter’s projections of incurred, paid and case reserve activity, including amounts incurred but not reported, to actual amounts experienced in the quarter. Differences between previous estimates and actual experience are evaluated to determine whether a given actuarial method for estimating loss and LAE reserves should be relied upon to a greater or lesser extent than it has been in the past. While some variance is expected each quarter due to the inherent uncertainty in estimating loss and LAE reserves, persistent or large variances would indicate that prior assumptions and/or reliance on certain actuarial methods may need to be revised going forward.
Upon completion of each quarterly review, Ark selects indicated loss and LAE reserve levels based on the results of the actuarial methods described previously, which are the primary consideration in determining management's best estimate of required loss and LAE reserves. However, in making its best estimate, management also considers other qualitative factors that may lead to a difference between held reserves and the actuarial central estimate of reserves. Typically, these qualitative factors are considered when management and Ark’s actuaries conclude that there is insufficient historical incurred and paid loss information or that trends included in the historical incurred and paid loss information are not likely to repeat in the future. Such qualitative factors include, among others, recent entry into new markets or new products, improvements in the claims department that are expected to lessen future ultimate loss costs, legal and regulatory developments or other uncertainties that may arise.
Ark Reserve Estimation by Line of Business
The process of establishing loss and LAE reserves, including amounts incurred but not reported, is complex and imprecise, as it must consider many variables that are subject to the outcome of future events. As a result, informed subjective estimates and judgments as to the ultimate exposure to losses are an integral component of the loss and LAE reserving process. Ark categorizes and tracks insurance and reinsurance reserves by “reserving class of business” for each underwriting office, London and Bermuda, and then aggregates the reserving classes by line of business, which are summarized herein as property and accident & health, specialty, marine & energy, casualty-active and casualty-runoff.
Ark regularly reviews the appropriateness of its loss and LAE reserves at the reserving class of business level, considering a variety of trends that impact the ultimate settlement of claims for the subsets of claims in each particular reserving class.
For loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025, Ark considers that the impact of the various reserving factors, as described below, on future paid losses would be similar to the impact of those factors on historical paid losses.
The major causes of material uncertainty (i.e., reserving factors) generally will vary for each line of business, as well as for each separately analyzed reserving class of business within the line of business. Also, reserving factors can have offsetting or compounding effects on estimated loss and LAE reserves. In most cases, it is not possible to measure the effect of a single reserving factor and construct a meaningful sensitivity expectation. Actual results will likely vary from expectations for each of these assumptions, resulting in an ultimate claims liability that is different from that being estimated currently.
Additional causes of material uncertainty exist in most product lines and may impact the types of claims that could occur within a particular line of business or reserving class of business. Examples where reserving factors, within a line of business or reserving class of business, are subject to change include changing types of insureds (e.g., size of account, industry insured, jurisdiction), changing underwriting standards, or changing policy provisions (e.g., deductibles, policy limits, endorsements).
Following is a detailed description of the reserve factors and consideration for each of Ark’s reserving lines of business.
Property and Accident & Health
Ark’s property and accident & health reserving line of business contains short-tail exposures. As such, reserving for these classes generally involves less uncertainty given the speed of settlement.
For property reserving classes, the reserve risk is driven primarily by occasional catastrophe events, though the financial effect of these is mitigated by reinsurance and retrocessional purchases. Ark writes property business on both an insurance and reinsurance basis. The insurance business primarily consists of direct and facultative contracts. However, some business is written through line slips and MGA binding authorities, which could have a longer-tail due to the increased exposure period caused by underlying policies attaching to the binder contract. The reinsurance business can also have a longer-tail due to timing delays resulting from attachment points on excess of loss contracts.
For accident & health reserving classes, the losses emanate from a wide range of personal accident, sickness, travel and medical insurance risks. The underlying business is a mix of direct and facultative contracts, as well as some MGA and reinsurance contracts, which are typically shorter-tail lines. Certain smaller components of the accident & health business can be longer-tail. The accident & health business is also exposed to catastrophic events though not to the same degree or magnitude as the property business.
F - 38

Marine & Energy
Ark’s marine & energy reserving line of business is underwritten on both an insurance and reinsurance basis and can be broken down into physical damage on marine risks, physical damage on upstream energy platforms and marine & energy liabilities.
The marine reserving classes consist primarily of marine hull, cargo and specie risks. These all generally have some element of transportability, which mitigates the catastrophe risk exposure; for example, having the ability to move out of the path of a hurricane if provided with sufficient notice. The marine reserving classes are generally shorter-tail.
The energy platform reserving classes cover risks that are less transportable and therefore are exposed to catastrophe events similar to property reserving classes. Other energy reserving classes cover construction contracts, which often have considerably protracted exposure periods with the bulk of the risk towards the end of the coverage period. This can have the effect of increasing the tail on an otherwise short-tail reserving class.
The marine & energy liability reserving classes, which represent a smaller portion of the marine & energy business, are typically longer-tail compared to physical damage reserving classes.
Specialty
Ark’s specialty portfolio is comprised of a diverse portfolio of insurance and reinsurance subclasses of business including aviation, contingency, cyber, fine art & specie, mortgage, nuclear, political and credit, space, surety as well as terrorism and political violence. Certain subclasses of business are exposed to both natural catastrophes and large man-made loss events. Although these subclasses have different coverages and exposures, they are all short-tail in nature and have similar reserving features.
Casualty-Active and Casualty-Runoff
Ark’s casualty reserving lines of business, which include casualty–active and casualty–runoff, are long-tail classes of business. Consequently, the ultimate liability may not be known at the date of loss, which results in greater uncertainty when reserving for casualty lines.
The casualty–active line of business consists of U.S. reinsurance and insurance risks written on an excess of loss basis. The casualty–runoff line of business consists of international reinsurance risks and U.S. casualty insurance risks written through an MGA binding authority. The losses arising from these lines of business are primarily related to medical malpractice, professional liability and general liability coverages, which are long-tail lines of business.
Casualty policies are generally written on either a claims-made or occurrence basis. On a claims-made basis, the trigger of loss is based on the date that the loss is reported. On an occurrence basis, the trigger of loss is the date that the loss occurred. Due to delays between loss occurrence and loss reporting, business written on an occurrence basis can be longer-tail than business written on a claims-made basis.
There are a number of common reserving factors for casualty lines that can affect the estimated casualty reserves, including:
•Changes in claims-handling practices, both in-house and through third-party claims administrators,
•Changes in court interpretations of policy provisions,
•Sustained elevated levels of inflation and
•Trends in litigation or jury awards.
Cumulative Number of Reported Claims
Ark counts a claim for each unique combination of individual claimant, loss event and risk. A claim is still counted if the claim is closed with no payment. Bulk-coded losses are counted as one claim, as underlying claim counts are not available.
Discounting
Ark does not discount loss and LAE reserves.

Impact of Third-Party Capital
For years of account prior to the Ark Transaction, a significant proportion of the Syndicates’ underwriting capital was provided by third-party insurance and reinsurance groups (“TPC Providers”) using whole account reinsurance contracts with Ark’s corporate member. For the years of account subsequent to the Ark Transaction, Ark is no longer using TPC Providers to provide underwriting capital for the Syndicates.
A Reinsurance to Close (“RITC”) agreement is generally put in place after the third year of operations for a year of account such that the outstanding loss and LAE reserves, including future development thereon, are reinsured into the next year of account. As a result, and in combination with the changing participation provided by TPC Providers, Ark’s participation on outstanding loss and LAE reserves reinsured into the next year of account changes. After 2023, Ark is no longer subject to changes in TPC Providers’ participation.
During 2023, an RITC agreement was executed such that the outstanding loss and LAE reserves for claims arising out of the 2020 year of account, for which the TPC Providers’ participation in the total net results of the Syndicates was 42.8%, were reinsured into the 2021 year of account, for which the TPC Providers’ participation in the total net results of the Syndicates was 0.0%. As a result, Ark’s net loss and LAE reserves increased by $145.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(1) The beginning reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses includes amounts attributable to TPC Providers of $145.4 as of January 1, 2023.
(2) Amount represents the impact to net loss and LAE reserves due to a change in the TPC Providers’ participation related to the annual RITC process.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Ark/WM Outrigger segment experienced $112.7 million of net favorable prior year loss reserve development, driven primarily by the property and accident & health ($91.7 million) and specialty ($27.2 million) reserving lines of business, partially offset by net unfavorable development in the marine & energy ($4.7 million) and casualty-active ($4.3 million) reserving lines of business. For property and accident & health, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development was driven primarily by positive claims experience for the 2024 and 2023 accident years. For specialty, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development was driven primarily by positive claims experience for the 2023 accident year, partially offset by negative claims experience for the 2022 and 2024 accident years. In addition, the net favorable prior year loss reserve development for specialty includes $91.4 million of unfavorable development related to aviation losses from the conflict in Ukraine and Russia resulting from 2025 U.K. High Court rulings on leasing claims.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Ark/WM Outrigger segment experienced $58.6 million of net favorable prior year loss reserve development, driven primarily by the specialty ($34.3 million) and property and accident & health ($29.2 million) reserving lines of business, partially offset by net unfavorable development in the casualty-active ($4.5 million) reserving line of business. The net favorable prior year loss reserve development was driven primarily by positive claims experience in specialty for the 2023 and 2019 accident years and in property and accident & health for the 2023 accident year.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Ark/WM Outrigger segment experienced $19.9 million of net unfavorable prior year loss reserve development, driven primarily by the property and accident & health ($41.7 million) reserving line of business, partially offset by net favorable prior year loss reserve development within the specialty ($11.9 million) and casualty–runoff ($6.0 million) reserving lines of business. The net unfavorable prior year loss reserve development in the property and accident & health reserving line of business was driven primarily by Hurricane Ian and Winter Storm Elliott within the 2022 accident year. The net favorable prior year loss reserve development in specialty and casualty-runoff was driven primarily by positive claims experience for the 2021 and 2020 accident years.
The following table summarizes the unpaid loss and LAE reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses, for each of the Ark/WM Outrigger segment’s major reserving lines of business as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(2) The amounts exclude $29.5 and $31.8 ceded by Ark to WM Outrigger Re as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, which eliminate in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements.
The following five tables cover each of Ark’s property and accident & health, marine & energy, specialty, casualty-active and casualty-runoff reserving lines of business and are presented net of reinsurance, which includes the impact of whole-account quota-share reinsurance arrangements related to TPC Providers. Each of the five tables includes three sections as follows:
The top section of the table presents, for each of the previous ten accident years: (1) cumulative total undiscounted incurred loss and LAE as of each of the previous ten year-end evaluations, (2) total IBNR plus expected development on reported claims as of December 31, 2025 and (3) the cumulative number of reported claims as of December 31, 2025.
The middle section of the table presents cumulative paid loss and LAE for each of the previous ten accident years as of each of the previous ten year-end evaluations. Also included in this section is a calculation of the loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025, which is then included in the reconciliation to the consolidated balance sheet presented above. The total unpaid loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025 are calculated as the cumulative incurred loss and LAE from the top section less the cumulative paid loss and LAE from the middle section, plus any outstanding liabilities from accident years prior to 2014.
The bottom section of the table is supplementary information about the average historical claims duration as of December 31, 2025. It shows the weighted average annual percentage payout of incurred loss and LAE by accident year as of each age. For example, the first column is calculated as the incremental paid loss and LAE in the first calendar year for each given accident year (e.g. calendar year 2025 for accident year 2025, calendar year 2024 for accident year 2024) divided by the cumulative incurred loss and LAE as of December 31, 2025 for that accident year. The resulting ratios are weighted using cumulative incurred loss and LAE as of December 31, 2025.

Note 6. Third-Party Reinsurance
Ark/WM Outrigger

The following table summarizes the effects of reinsurance on written and earned premiums and on loss and LAE for the Ark/WM Outrigger segment for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

As reinsurance contracts do not relieve Ark of its obligation to its policyholders, Ark seeks to reduce the credit risk associated with reinsurance balances by avoiding over-reliance on specific reinsurers through the application of concentration limits and thresholds. Ark is selective with its reinsurers, placing reinsurance with only those reinsurers having a strong financial condition. Ark monitors the financial strength of its reinsurers on an ongoing basis.

All payments of principal and interest under the Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes are conditional upon GAIL’s solvency and compliance with the enhanced capital requirements of the Bermuda Monetary Authority (“BMA”). The deferral of payments of principal and interest under these conditions does not constitute a default by Ark and does not give the noteholders any rights to accelerate repayment of the Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes or take any enforcement action under the Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes.
If the payments of principal and interest under the Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes become subject to tax withholding on behalf of Bermuda or any political subdivision there, the Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes require the payment of additional amounts such that the amount received by the noteholders is the same as would have been received absent the tax withholding being imposed. The Ark 2021 Subordinated Notes Tranche 3 require the payment of additional interest of 1.0% per annum upon the occurrence of a premium load event until such event is remedied.

On April 29, 2022, HG Global received the proceeds from the issuance of its $150.0 million face value floating rate secured senior notes (the “HG Global Senior Notes”). The HG Global Senior Notes, which mature in April 2032, accrue interest at a floating rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus a SOFR benchmark adjustment of 0.26% and a stated margin of 6.0% per annum. Subsequent to the five-year anniversary of the funding date, absent the occurrence of an early amortization trigger event, HG Global will be required to make payments of principal on a quarterly basis totaling $15.0 million annually. Upon the occurrence of an early amortization trigger event, HG Global is required to use all available cash flow to repay the notes. Early amortization trigger events include scenarios in which HG Re is effectively in runoff. HG Global has the option to redeem, in whole or in part, the HG Global Senior Notes after the five-year anniversary of the funding date at the outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest.
On June 16, 2022, HG Global entered into an interest rate cap agreement, effective on July 25, 2022, to limit its exposure to the risk of interest rate increases on the HG Global Senior Notes (the “HG Global 2022 Interest Rate Cap”). Under the HG Global 2022 Interest Rate Cap, the notional amount is $150.0 million, the maximum interest rate is 9.76% per annum and the termination date is July 25, 2025.

The HG Global Senior Notes are secured by the capital stock and other equity interests of HG Global’s subsidiaries, the interest reserve account and all cash and non-cash proceeds from such collateral. The HG Global Senior Notes contain various affirmative and negative covenants that White Mountains considers to be customary for such borrowings.
If the payment of principal and interest under the HG Global Senior Notes becomes subject to tax withholding on behalf of a relevant governmental authority for certain indemnified taxes, the HG Global Senior Notes require the payment of additional amounts such that the amount received by the noteholders is the same as would have been received absent the tax withholding being imposed. The HG Global Senior Notes require the payment of additional interest of 1.0% per annum if the HG Global Senior Notes receive a non-investment grade rating or are no longer rated. As of December 31, 2025, the HG Global Senior Notes had an investment grade rating.
As of December 31, 2025, the HG Global Senior Notes had an outstanding balance of $150.0 million.
Kudu Credit Facility
On March 23, 2021, Kudu entered into a secured revolving credit facility (the “Kudu Credit Facility”) with Mass Mutual for a maximum borrowing capacity of $300.0 million. On June 28, 2024, Kudu amended the Kudu Credit Facility to increase the total commitment from $300.0 million to $350.0 million and revise the stated margin and SOFR benchmark adjustment. The amended terms also reduced the minimum debt service coverage ratio, calculated as its trailing 12 months annualized adjusted EBITDA to its total debt service, to 2.5 times for 2024, reverting back to 3.0 times for 2025 and thereafter. On March 18, 2025, Kudu amended the Kudu Credit Facility to reduce the required interest reserve account balance and lower the minimum debt service coverage ratio to 2.5 times. On July 21, 2025, Kudu amended the Kudu Credit Facility to increase the total commitment from $350 million to $500 million, reduce the maximum loan-to-value ratio from 50% to 40% and revise the interest rate. These amendments to the Kudu Credit Facility have lowered Kudu’s borrowing costs and increased its borrowing capacity. The Kudu Credit Facility has an availability period through July 21, 2030 and matures on July 21, 2038.
Through June 30, 2024, interest on the Kudu Credit Facility accrued at a floating rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus a SOFR benchmark adjustment of 0.26% and a stated margin of 4.30% (4.56% in total) per annum.

On September 17, 2024, Kudu entered into an interest rate cap agreement, effective on September 30, 2024, to limit its exposure to the risk of interest rate increases on the Kudu Credit Facility (the “Kudu Interest Rate Cap”). Under the Kudu Interest Rate Cap, the notional amount is $150.0 million, the maximum interest rate is 8.95% per annum and the termination date is September 30, 2027. See Note 9 — “Derivatives.”
The Kudu Credit Facility requires Kudu to maintain an interest reserve account of two times the interest accrued for the most recent quarterly interest period. Prior to the March 18, 2025 amendment, Kudu was required to maintain an interest reserve account of four times the interest accrued for the most recent quarterly interest period. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the interest reserve account held short-term investments of $7.6 million and $15.1 million.
The Kudu Credit Facility requires Kudu to maintain a maximum loan-to-value ratio of the outstanding balance to the sum of the fair market value of Kudu’s other long-term investments and cash held in certain accounts (the “LTV Percentage”) for annual periods beginning on July 21, 2025 as follows: 40% in years 0-6, 25% in years 7-8, 15% in years 9-11 and 0% thereafter. As of December 31, 2025, Kudu had a 26.8% LTV Percentage.
The Kudu Credit Facility requires Kudu to maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 2.5 times for 2025 and thereafter. As of December 31, 2025, Kudu had a debt service coverage ratio of 2.6 times.
Kudu may borrow undrawn balances until July 21, 2030, subject to customary terms and conditions, to the extent that the
amount borrowed under the Kudu Credit Facility does not exceed the borrowing base, which is equal to 35% of the fair value of Kudu’s other long-term investments.

Distinguished Credit Facility
On July 4, 2025, Distinguished entered into an amended credit facility (the “Distinguished Credit Facility”). The amendment waived certain change of control prepayment provisions and provided $50.0 million of incremental term loan principal for purposes of consummating the Distinguished Transaction. The $50.0 million of incremental term loan principal was subsequently drawn on September 2, 2025 in connection with the closing of the Distinguished Transaction. The Distinguished Credit Facility is comprised of a term loan of $141.0 million, a delayed-draw term loan of $40.0 million and a revolving credit loan commitment of $15.0 million. The Distinguished Credit Facility matures on October 10, 2029.

Distinguished has the option to prepay, in whole or in part, the Distinguished Credit Facility at the outstanding principal plus accrued interest. The delayed draw term loan may be drawn on or before October 10, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, the revolving credit loan was undrawn.
Interest on the Distinguished Credit Facility accrues at a floating rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus a stated margin ranging from 5.25% to 5.5% per annum driven by Distinguished’s total leverage ratio.

Note 8. Income Taxes
The Company has subsidiaries and branches that operate in various jurisdictions around the world and are subject to tax in the jurisdictions in which they operate. As of December 31, 2025, the primary jurisdictions in which the Company’s subsidiaries and branches operated and were subject to tax include Israel, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are subject to the global minimum tax regime of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two initiative, as enacted by Luxembourg and the United Kingdom in their respective domestic laws. The Pillar Two initiative includes a set of model rules that are generally designed to impose a top-up tax on a large multinational enterprise group to the extent that the group is not subject to an effective tax rate of at least 15% in each jurisdiction in which the group has a consolidated affiliate or permanent establishment. White Mountains did not incur a top-up tax for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Company and its Bermuda-domiciled subsidiaries were not subject to income tax in Bermuda in 2025 and prior years. On December 27, 2023, Bermuda enacted a 15% corporate income tax that became effective on January 1, 2025. The Bermuda legislation defers the effective date for five years for Bermuda companies in consolidated groups that meet certain requirements. White Mountains expects to meet the requirements to be exempt from the Bermuda corporate income tax until January 1, 2030.
The Bermuda legislation also provides for an optional economic transition adjustment that can decrease or increase future years’ taxable income. Under GAAP, this economic transition adjustment was required to be recognized as a deferred tax asset or liability as of December 31, 2023 if a company intended to apply the adjustment to compute its taxable income. Accordingly, White Mountains recorded a net deferred tax asset of $68.0 million in 2023, of which $51.0 million was attributable to Ark and $17.0 million was attributable to HG Global. As of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. As a result of the deconsolidation of BAM, the BAM Surplus Notes were recorded at fair value, which resulted in the reversal of a $5.0 million deferred tax liability related to the economic transition adjustment, generating a $5.0 million deferred tax benefit in 2024. On December 11, 2025, Bermuda enacted legislation that changes the scope of assets and liabilities subject to the economic transition adjustment. This legislation resulted in the reversal of a $5.1 million deferred tax liability related to the economic transition adjustment, generating a $5.1 million deferred tax benefit in 2025.
As a result of legislation enacted by Luxembourg on December 17, 2025, White Mountains expects to incur a top-up tax under the Luxembourg UTPR equal to the amount of the deferred tax benefit for that year associated with the Bermuda economic transition adjustment. Consequently, White Mountains expects to derive no economic benefit from the economic transition adjustment and intends to opt out of the economic transition adjustment upon becoming subject to Bermuda corporate income tax. Accordingly, White Mountains recognized a deferred tax expense of $78.1 million in 2025 to reverse the net deferred tax asset related to the Bermuda economic transition adjustment.
The following table presents the total income tax (expense) benefit for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

F - 56

White Mountains’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) are net of U.S. federal, state and non-U.S. valuation allowances and, to the extent that they relate to non-U.S. jurisdictions, are shown at year-end exchange rates.
Valuation Allowance
White Mountains records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if it becomes more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in income tax expense in the period of change. In determining whether or not a valuation allowance, or change therein, is warranted, White Mountains considers factors such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods and strategies that if executed would result in the realization of a deferred tax asset. It is possible that certain planning strategies or projected earnings in certain subsidiaries may not be sufficient to utilize the entire deferred tax asset, which could result in changes to White Mountains’s deferred tax assets and tax expense.
Of the $95.8 million valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025, $36.8 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses and net unrealized investment gains and losses in the Company’s Luxembourg subsidiary, $35.3 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses in U.S. subsidiaries and other federal and state deferred tax benefits, $23.6 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses and other deferred tax benefits in Israeli subsidiaries and $0.1 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses in U.K. subsidiaries. Of the $89.2 million valuation allowance as of December 31, 2024, $43.4 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses and net unrealized investment gains and losses in the Luxembourg subsidiary, $25.2 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses in U.S. subsidiaries and other federal and state deferred tax benefits and $20.6 million related to deferred tax assets on net operating losses and other deferred tax benefits in Israeli subsidiaries.
United States
For the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains recognized income tax expense of $10.3 million to reflect an increase in the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets for certain U.S. operations within Other Operations, as White Mountains does not currently anticipate sufficient taxable income to utilize the remaining deferred tax assets. For the year ended December 31, 2024, White Mountains recognized income tax expense of $8.6 million to reflect an increase in the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets for certain U.S. operations within Other Operations, as White Mountains did not anticipate sufficient taxable income to utilize the remaining deferred tax assets.
As of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Prior to the deconsolidation, White Mountains recognized income tax expense of $5.7 million to reflect the increase in the valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets of BAM for the years ended December 31, 2024. White Mountains recognized both the tax expense related to BAM’s member surplus contributions (“MSC”) and the related changes in valuation allowance on such taxes directly through noncontrolling interest equity. For the years ended December 31, 2024, BAM had income included in equity due to MSC that was available to offset its loss from operations. For the year ended December 31, 2024, BAM recognized both the income tax benefit on MSC of $3.1 million and the offsetting expense in paid-in surplus.
Non-U.S. Jurisdictions
For the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains recognized income tax benefit of $6.6 million to reflect a decrease in the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at the Luxembourg-domiciled subsidiary. The decrease in the valuation allowance was driven by the utilization of the deferred tax assets primarily from interest income, including a $3.9 million income tax benefit for the partial release in valuation allowance related to expected future interest income. White Mountains does not currently anticipate sufficient income to utilize the remaining deferred tax assets. For the year ended December 31, 2024, White Mountains recognized income tax benefit of $4.2 million to reflect a decrease in deferred tax assets and the corresponding decrease in the full valuation allowance at the Luxembourg-domiciled subsidiary. The decrease in the deferred tax assets was driven primarily by (i) utilization from interest income and (ii) a decline in the Luxembourg tax rate. As of December 31, 2024, White Mountains did not anticipate sufficient income to utilize the remaining deferred tax assets.
F - 57

For the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains recognized income tax expense of $3.0 million to reflect an increase in the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at certain Israel-domiciled subsidiaries. The increase is due to movement of foreign currency exchange rate gains during the year, which increased the Company’s net operating loss carryforward and related deferred tax asset. White Mountains does not currently anticipate sufficient taxable income to utilize the deferred tax assets. For the year ended December 31, 2024, White Mountains recognized income tax benefit of $0.2 million to reflect a decrease in the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at certain Israel-domiciled subsidiaries. The decrease is due to movement of foreign currency exchange rate gains during the year, which reduced the Company’s net operating loss carryforward and related deferred tax asset. As of December 31, 2024, White Mountains did not anticipate sufficient taxable income to utilize the remaining deferred tax assets.
Net Operating Loss and Capital Loss Carryforwards
The following table presents net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2025, the expiration dates and the deferred tax assets thereon:

Net deferred tax asset |  | $ | 2.0 |  |  | $ | 3.9 |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 5.9 |

Included in the U.S. net operating loss carryforwards are losses of $8.2 million subject to an annual limitation on utilization under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and $0.6 million subject to the limitation on utilization under the separate-return-limitation-year (SRLY) rules in the Internal Revenue Code. These loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2026. As of December 31, 2025, there are U.K. foreign tax credit carryforwards available of $3.7 million, which do not have an expiration date.
Uncertain Tax Positions
Recognition of the benefit of a given tax position is based upon whether a company determines that it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. In evaluating the more likely than not recognition threshold, White Mountains must presume that the tax position will be subject to examination by a taxing authority with full knowledge of all relevant information. If the recognition threshold is met, then the tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains did not have any unrecognized tax benefits.
White Mountains classifies all interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, White Mountains did not recognize any net interest (income) expense. There was no accrued interest as of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Tax Examinations
With few exceptions, White Mountains is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2019.

HG Global was established to fund the startup of BAM, a mutual municipal bond insurer. HG Global, together with its subsidiaries, provided the initial capitalization of BAM through the purchase of $503.0 million of the BAM Surplus Notes.
Reinsurance Treaties
FLRT
HG Re is a party to the FLRT with BAM, under which HG Re provides first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. For capital appreciation bonds, par is adjusted to the estimated equivalent par value for current interest paying bonds. HG Re is only required to provide reinsurance on policies that fall within the FLRT underwriting guidelines agreed upon by HG Re.
BAM charges an insurance premium on each municipal bond insurance policy it underwrites. Historically, approximately 55% of the total insurance premium charged by BAM has been MSC, and the remainder is a risk premium. In return for the reinsurance provided, HG Re receives approximately 60% of the risk premium charged, which is net of a ceding commission.
The FLRT is a perpetual agreement with terms that can be renegotiated every five years. For the next renegotiation period, either party may provide notice during 2028 to trigger a renegotiation that would take effect on January 1, 2030.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $61.4 million and earned premiums of $30.8 million. Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, HG Re’s reinsurance balances under the FLRT eliminated in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. For the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $31.9 million and earned premiums of $14.9 million.
XOLT
HG Re is party to an excess of loss reinsurance agreement (the “XOLT”) with BAM, under which HG Re provides last-dollar protection for exposures on municipal bonds insured by BAM in excess of the New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”) single issuer limits. As of December 31, 2025, the XOLT is subject to an aggregate limit equal to the lesser of $125.0 million or the assets held in the supplemental collateral trust (the “Supplemental Trust”) at any point in time. The XOLT is accounted for using deposit accounting as the agreement does not meet the risk transfer requirements necessary to be accounted for as reinsurance. Accordingly, any financing revenues related to the XOLT are recorded in other revenues.
Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, HG Re’s reinsurance balances under the XOLT eliminated in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and for the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, other revenues recognized by HG Re related to the XOLT were insignificant.

Collateral Trusts
HG Re’s obligations under the FLRT are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in two collateral trusts, the Supplemental Trust and the Regulation 114 Trust (together, the “Collateral Trusts”), at any point in time.
On a monthly basis, BAM deposits cash equal to ceded premiums net of ceding commissions, due to HG Re under the FLRT directly into the Regulation 114 Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust target balance is equal to HG Re’s unearned premiums and unpaid loss and LAE reserves, if any. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is below the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Supplemental Trust and deposited into the Regulation 114 Trust in an amount equal to the shortfall. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is above 102% of the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Regulation 114 Trust and deposited into the Supplemental Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $399.4 million and $352.1 million, which consisted of cash, investments and accrued investment income.
The Supplemental Trust target balance is $603.0 million, less the amount of cash and securities in the Regulation 114 Trust in excess of its target balance (the “Supplemental Trust Target Balance”). If, at the end of any quarter, the Supplemental Trust balance exceeds the Supplemental Trust Target Balance, such excess may be distributed to HG Re. The distribution will be made first as an assignment of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and second in cash and/or fixed income securities. For the year ended December 31, 2025, HG Re received a distribution from the Supplemental Trust of $61.0 million, which consisted of an assignment of $30.1 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and a cash distribution of $30.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, HG Re received a distribution from the Supplemental Trust of $79.7 million, which consisted of an assignment of $58.5 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and a cash distribution of $21.2 million.
As the BAM Surplus Notes are repaid over time, the BAM Surplus Notes will be replaced in the Supplemental Trust by cash and fixed income securities. The Supplemental Trust balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $607.1 million and $598.0 million, which included $323.3 million and $289.4 million of cash, investments and accrued investment income, $276.8 million and $300.9 million of BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value and $7.0 million and $7.7 million of accrued interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Collateral Trusts held total assets of $1,006.5 million and $950.1 million.
BAM Surplus Notes
Through June 30, 2024, the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes was a variable rate equal to the one-year U.S. Treasury rate plus 300 basis points, set annually, with each payment applied pro rata between outstanding principal and interest. Accordingly, in 2024, the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes was 8.2% through June 30, 2024. Effective July 1, 2024 and through maturity, HG Global and BAM amended the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes to be 10.0%, with a higher proportion of each payment to be applied to outstanding principal.
Under its agreements with HG Global, BAM is required to seek regulatory approval to pay principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes only to the extent that its remaining qualified statutory capital and other capital resources continue to support its outstanding obligations, its business plan and its “AA/stable” rating from Standard & Poor’s. No payment of principal or interest on the BAM Surplus Notes may be made without the approval of the NYDFS.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, HG Global received cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $35.0 million. Of these payments, $24.2 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $0.3 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $10.5 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, HG Global received cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes totaling $30.0 million. Of these payments, $21.3 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $0.5 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $8.2 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
F - 61

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the principal balance on the BAM Surplus Notes was $276.8 million and $300.9 million, and total interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes was $213.7 million and $194.8 million, all at nominal value. For the year ended December 31, 2025, White Mountains accrued $29.8 million of interest income on the BAM Surplus Notes.
Prior to the deconsolidation of BAM on July 1, 2024, the BAM Surplus Notes, including accrued interest receivable, were classified as intercompany notes carried at nominal value, which eliminated in consolidation. Upon deconsolidation, White Mountains elected the fair value option for the BAM Surplus Notes. The BAM Surplus Notes are classified as a Level 3 measurement. White Mountains values the BAM Surplus Notes each quarter using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis used to value the BAM Surplus Notes depends on key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings for BAM, expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes through maturity and a discount rate to reflect time value and related uncertainty of the repayment pattern. The expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results. These expected payments depend on BAM’s ability to generate excess cash flows from its operations, driven primarily by assumptions regarding future trends for the issuance of municipal bonds, interest rates, credit spreads, insured market penetration, competitive activity in the market for municipal bond insurance and other factors affecting the demand for and pricing of BAM’s municipal bond insurance as well as BAM’s investment returns. The discount rate considers comparably-rated companies and instruments, adjusted for risks specific to BAM and the BAM Surplus Notes. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains concluded that a discount rate, which is a significant unobservable input used in estimating the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes, of 8.05% and 8.10% was appropriate. The change in the discount rate was driven primarily by a decline in market interest rates.
When making its fair value selection, White Mountains considers all available information, facts and circumstances specific to BAM’s business and industry and any infrequent or unusual results for the period. As of
December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains recognized the BAM Surplus Notes at a fair value of $339.0 million and $381.7 million. The recorded fair values represent management's best estimate and are within the range of reasonable values derived from the discounted cash flow analysis.
The following table presents the changes in the nominal value and fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes for the year ended December 31, 2025:

Note 11. Earnings Per Share
White Mountains calculates earnings per share using the two-class method, which allocates earnings between common shares and unvested restricted common shares. Both classes of shares participate equally in dividends and earnings on a per share basis. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for unvested restricted common shares.
The following table presents the Company’s computation of earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

(1) White Mountains recognizes an adjustment to the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests to the extent that the carrying value is below the redemption value. When calculating basic and diluted earnings per share, the adjustment for redeemable noncontrolling interests is treated as being akin to a dividend and presented as an adjustment to net income (loss) attributable to White Mountains’s common shareholders.
(2) Restricted shares issued by White Mountains receive dividends, and therefore, are considered participating securities.
(3) Restricted shares outstanding vest upon a stated date. See Note 12 — “Employee Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans.”

Note 12. Employee Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans
White Mountains’s share-based incentive compensation plans are designed to incentivize key employees to maximize shareholder value over long periods of time. White Mountains believes that this is best pursued by utilizing a pay-for-performance program that closely aligns the financial interests of management with those of its shareholders while rewarding appropriate risk taking. White Mountains accomplishes this by emphasizing variable long-term compensation that is contingent on performance over a number of years rather than fixed entitlements. White Mountains expenses all its share-based compensation. As a result, White Mountains’s calculation of its owners’ returns includes the expense of all outstanding share-based compensation awards.
The WTM Incentive Plan provides for grants of various types of share-based and non-share-based incentive awards to key employees and directors of White Mountains. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, White Mountains’ share-based incentive compensation awards consist of performance shares and restricted shares.
Performance Shares
Performance shares are designed to reward employees for meeting company-wide performance targets. Performance shares are conditional grants of a specified maximum number of common shares or an equivalent amount of cash. Awards generally vest at the end of a three-year service period, are subject to the attainment of pre-specified performance goals, and are valued based on the market value of common shares at the time awards are paid. Performance shares earned under the WTM Incentive Plan are typically paid in cash but may be paid in common shares. Compensation expense is recognized for the vested portion of the awards over the related service periods. The level of payout ranges from zero to two times the number of shares initially granted, depending on White Mountains’s financial performance. Performance shares become payable at the conclusion of a performance cycle (typically three years) if pre-defined financial targets are met.
The performance measure used for determining performance share payouts is the growth in compensation value per share (“CVPS”). Prior to 2025, CVPS was calculated as the average of the growth in adjusted book value per share and the growth in intrinsic value per share. Intrinsic value per share is calculated by adjusting White Mountains’s book value per share for differences between the book value of certain assets and liabilities and White Mountains’s estimate of their underlying intrinsic value. Following the deconsolidation of BAM, White Mountains has replaced growth in adjusted book value per share with growth in book value per share in the calculation of CVPS for calendar years beginning with 2025. For example, for the 2023-2025 performance cycle, adjusted book value per share growth would be used in the calculation of CVPS for calendar years 2023 and 2024, and book value per share growth would be used for calendar year 2025.
The following table presents performance share activity for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 for performance shares granted under the WTM Incentive Plan:

(1)WTM performance share payments for the 2022-2024 performance cycle were made in March 2025 at 200% of target. WTM performance share payments for the 2021-2023 performance cycle were made in March 2024 at 188% of target. WTM performance share payments for the 2020-2022 performance cycle were made in March 2023 at 200% of target.
(2)Amounts include changes in assumed forfeitures, as required under GAAP.
During 2025, White Mountains granted 10,670 performance shares for the 2025-2027 performance cycle. During 2024, White Mountains granted 11,405 performance shares for the 2024-2026 performance cycle. During 2023, White Mountains granted 10,895 performance shares for the 2023-2025 performance cycle.

For the 2022-2024 performance cycle, the Company issued common shares for 30 performance shares earned, and all other performance shares earned were settled in cash. For the 2021-2023 performance cycle, the Company issued common shares for 100 performance shares earned, and all other performance shares earned were settled in cash. For the 2020-2022 performance cycle, all performance shares earned were settled in cash. If all outstanding performance shares had vested on December 31, 2025, the total additional compensation cost to be recognized would have been $36.5 million, based on accrual factors as of December 31, 2025 (common share price and payout assumptions).
The following table presents performance shares outstanding and accrued expense for performance shares awarded under the WTM Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2025 for each performance cycle:

|  | December 31, 2025
$ in Millions |  | Target Performance Shares Outstanding |  | Accrued Expense
Performance cycle: |  |  |  |

For the 2025-2027 performance cycle, the targeted performance goal for full payment of outstanding performance shares granted under the WTM Incentive Plan is 11.5% average annual growth in CVPS. Average annual growth of 6% or less would result in no payout, and average annual growth of 17% or more would result in a payout of 200%.
For the 2024-2026 performance cycle, the targeted performance goal for full payment of outstanding performance shares granted under the WTM Incentive Plan is 11% average annual growth in CVPS. Average annual growth of 6% or less would result in no payout, and average annual growth of 16% or more would result in a payout of 200%.
For the 2023-2025 performance cycle, the targeted performance goal for full payment of outstanding performance shares granted under the WTM Incentive Plan is 11% average annual growth in CVPS. Average annual growth of 6% or less would result in no payout, and average annual growth of 16% or more would result in a payout of 200%.
Restricted Shares
Restricted shares are grants of a specified number of common shares that generally vest at the end of a 34-month service period.

Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests consist of the ownership interests of noncontrolling shareholders in consolidated entities. White Mountains has both redeemable and nonredeemable noncontrolling interests. Noncontrolling interests with optional redemption features that are not within White Mountains’s control are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests, which are considered temporary equity and presented as mezzanine equity on the balance sheet. Noncontrolling interests that do not have any redemption features are classified as nonredeemable noncontrolling interests, which are considered permanent equity and included in White Mountains’s total equity on the balance sheet. Nonredeemable noncontrolling interests are presented separately from White Mountains’s common shareholders’ equity.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
On September 5, 2028, the third anniversary of the closing of the Distinguished Transaction, certain noncontrolling unitholders will have the option to sell additional units representing 31.4% of Distinguished’s basic units outstanding to White Mountains at the same unit price paid in the Distinguished Transaction less aggregate per unit distributions. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests was $131.5 million, and the redemption value would be $131.5 million if exercised in full.

Note 14. Statutory Capital and Surplus
White Mountains’s insurance operations are subject to regulation and supervision in each of the jurisdictions where they are domiciled and licensed to conduct business. Generally, regulatory authorities have broad supervisory and administrative powers over such matters as licenses, standards of solvency, premium rates, policy forms, investments, security deposits, methods of accounting, form and content of financial statements, minimum capital and surplus requirements, dividends and other distributions to shareholders, periodic examinations and annual and other report filings. In general, such regulation is for the protection of policyholders rather than shareholders.
The Insurance Act 1978 of Bermuda and related regulations, as amended (the “Insurance Act”), regulates the insurance business of Bermuda-domiciled insurers. Under the Insurance Act, insurers are required to maintain available statutory capital and surplus at a level equal to or in excess of its enhanced capital requirement which is established by reference to either a Bermuda Solvency Capital Requirement (“BSCR”) model or an approved internal capital model. Generally, the BMA has broad supervisory and administrative powers over such matters as licenses, standards of solvency, investments, methods of accounting, form and content of financial statements, minimum capital and surplus requirements and annual and other report filings.
Ark
The Syndicates are subject to oversight by the Council of Lloyd’s. Ark Syndicate Management Limited is authorized by the U.K.’s Prudential Regulation Authority (the “PRA”) and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. The underwriting capacity of a Member of Lloyd’s must be supported by providing a deposit in the form of cash, securities or letters of credit in an amount determined under the capital adequacy regime of the PRA. This amount is determined by Lloyd’s and is based on each syndicate’s solvency and capital requirement as calculated through its internal model. In addition, if the Funds at Lloyd’s are not sufficient to cover all losses, the Lloyd’s Central Fund provides an additional discretionary level of security for policyholders. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of Ark’s Funds at Lloyd’s cash and investment deposits totaled $361.6 million.
GAIL is subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. As of December 31, 2025, GAIL had statutory capital and surplus of $1,700.2 million. GAIL’s minimum statutory capital and surplus requirement established by the BMA was $578.1 million as of December 31, 2025.
F - 69

WM Outrigger Re
WM Outrigger Re is a special purpose insurer under Bermuda insurance regulations and is subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. As of December 31, 2025, WM Outrigger Re had statutory capital and surplus of $231.8 million. As a special purpose insurer, Outrigger Re Ltd. has a nominal minimum regulatory capital requirement of $1.
HG Global
HG Re is a special purpose insurer under Bermuda insurance regulations and is subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had statutory capital and surplus of $731.7 million. As a special purpose insurer, HG Re has a nominal minimum regulatory capital requirement of $1.
Dividend Capacity
There are no restrictions under Bermuda law or the law of any other jurisdiction on the payment of dividends from retained earnings by White Mountains, provided that after the payment of any dividend, the Company would continue to be able to pay its liabilities as they become due and the realizable value of the Company’s assets would remain greater that its liabilities. Following is a description of the dividend capacity of White Mountains’s insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries:
Ark
During any 12-month period, GAIL, a class 4 licensed Bermuda insurer, has the ability to (i) make capital distributions of up to 15% of its total statutory capital per the previous year’s statutory financial statements or (ii) make dividend payments of up to 25% of its total statutory capital and surplus per the previous year’s statutory financial statements, without prior approval of Bermuda regulatory authorities. Accordingly, GAIL will have the ability to pay a dividend of up to $425.1 million during 2025, which is equal to 25% of its statutory capital and surplus of $1,700.2 million as of December 31, 2025, subject to meeting all appropriate liquidity and solvency requirements and the filing of its December 31, 2025 statutory financial statements. During 2025, GAIL did not pay any dividends to its immediate parent.
HG Global
HG Re is a special purpose insurer subject to regulation and supervision by the BMA. HG Re does not require regulatory approval to pay dividends; however, its dividend capacity is limited to amounts held outside of the Collateral Trusts pursuant to the FLRT with BAM. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $3.9 million of net unrestricted cash and short-term investments. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $178.5 million of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes held outside the Collateral Trusts. As of December 31, 2025, HG Re had $731.7 million of statutory capital and surplus and $1,006.5 million of assets held in the Collateral Trusts.
Note 15. Segment Information
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains conducted its operations through four reportable segments: (1) Ark/WM Outrigger, (2) HG Global, (3) Kudu and (4) Distinguished, with its remaining operating businesses, holding companies and other assets included in Other Operations. White Mountains has made its segment determination based on consideration of the following criteria: (i) the nature of the business activities of each of the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) the manner in which the Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates are organized; (iii) the existence of primary managers responsible for specific subsidiaries and affiliates; and (iv) the organization of information provided to the Company’s CODM and the Board of Directors. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM utilizes each segment's pre-tax income (loss) in assessing each segment's performance and allocating resources. Other measures of segment profitability are also reviewed by the CODM. Significant intercompany transactions among White Mountains’s segments have been eliminated herein.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, Ark sponsored the formation of Outrigger Re Ltd. to provide collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark’s Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio written in the 2023 underwriting year. Ark renewed its quota share reinsurance agreement with Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2024, 2025 and 2026 underwriting years. White Mountains consolidates its segregated account of Outrigger Re Ltd., WM Outrigger Re, in its financial statements. WM Outrigger Re’s quota share reinsurance agreement with GAIL eliminates in White Mountains’s consolidated financial statements. WM Outrigger Re exclusively provides reinsurance protection to Ark. As a result, WM Outrigger Re was aggregated with Ark within the Ark/WM Outrigger segment starting in 2023. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
Effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Through June 30, 2024, BAM’s results of operations are presented within the HG Global segment. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
F - 70

On December 5, 2025, White Mountains completed the Bamboo Sale Transaction. As a result, White Mountains deconsolidated the Bamboo Group on December 5, 2025, and Bamboo is no longer a reportable segment. Through December 5, 2025, Bamboo’s results of operations are presented within the Bamboo segment. White Mountains’s noncontrolling equity interest in the Bamboo SPV is accounted for at fair value in other long-term investments within Other Operations. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
On September 2, 2025, White Mountains completed the Distinguished Transaction. As a result, White Mountains began consolidating Distinguished in its financial statements on September 2, 2025. See Note 2 — “Significant Transactions.”
The following tables present White Mountains’s pre-tax financial results by segment for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:

Note 16. Variable Interest Entities
Under GAAP, White Mountains is required to consolidate any entity in which it holds a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest is usually in the form of an investment representing the majority of the subsidiary’s voting interests. However, a controlling financial interest may also arise from a financial interest in a VIE through arrangements that do not involve ownership of voting interests. A VIE is a legal entity that (i) does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional financial support; (ii) is structured such that equity investors, as a group, lack the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; (iii) is structured such that the equity investors lack the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive returns from, the entity; or (iv) is structured with non-substantive voting rights. White Mountains determines whether an entity is a VIE at the inception of its variable interest in the entity and upon the occurrence of certain reconsideration events.
White Mountains consolidates a VIE if it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is defined as the entity that holds a variable interest that gives it both the power to direct the VIE’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive returns from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The identification of the primary beneficiary of a VIE may require significant assumptions and judgment. When White Mountains determines it has a variable interest in a VIE, it determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE by performing an analysis that principally considers: (i) the VIE’s purpose and design, including the risks the VIE was designed to create and pass through to its variable interest holders; (ii) the VIE’s capital structure; (iii) the identification of the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; (iv) the governance provisions and other contractual arrangements between the VIE and its variable interest holders and other parties involved with the VIE; and (v) related party relationships. At inception of its variable interest in the VIE as well as on an ongoing basis, White Mountains performs qualitative assessments of its VIEs to determine whether White Mountains is the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

WM Outrigger Re
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 100.0% of WM Outrigger Re’s preferred equity. White Mountains has determined that Outrigger Re Ltd. and its segregated accounts, including WM Outrigger Re, are VIEs. White Mountains is not the primary beneficiary of Outrigger Re Ltd. or its third-party segregated accounts. White Mountains is the primary beneficiary of WM Outrigger Re, as it has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact WM Outrigger Re’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive returns, that could potentially be significant to WM Outrigger Re. As a result, White Mountains consolidates WM Outrigger Re’s results in its financial statements. The assets of WM Outrigger Re can only be used to settle the liabilities of WM Outrigger Re, and there is no recourse to the Company for any creditors of WM Outrigger Re. WM Outrigger Re’s obligations under its reinsurance agreement with GAIL are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in its collateral trust at any point in time. As of December 31, 2025, investments of $245.7 million were held in its collateral trust account.
BAM
BAM is the first and only mutual municipal bond insurance company in the United States. HG Global, together with its subsidiaries, funded the initial capitalization of BAM through the purchase of $503.0 million of BAM Surplus Notes and, through its reinsurance subsidiary HG Re, provides first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15%-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. As a mutual insurance company, BAM is owned by and operated for the benefit of its members, the municipalities whose debt issuances are insured by BAM. White Mountains has determined that BAM is a VIE.
BAM’s underwriting process was determined to be the activity that most significantly impacts BAM’s economic performance. BAM’s underwriting guidelines define the types of credits that BAM may insure. Pursuant to the original FLRT, BAM’s underwriting guidelines could only be amended with the consent of HG Re. As a result, White Mountains concluded at inception and through June 30, 2024 that it had the power to direct BAM’s activities that most significantly impacted BAM’s economic performance and it was the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, White Mountains was required to consolidate BAM’s results in its financial statements. Since BAM is owned by its members, its equity and results of operations were included in noncontrolling interests.
On July 1, 2024, HG Re and BAM amended the terms of the FLRT with respect to certain governance rights held by HG Re. Under the amended FLRT, HG Re no longer has approval rights over changes to BAM’s underwriting guidelines; however, HG Re is only required to provide reinsurance on policies that fall within the FLRT underwriting guidelines agreed upon by HG Re. In conjunction with the amendments to the FLRT, HG Global and BAM increased the interest rate on the BAM Surplus Notes to 10.0%, with a higher proportion of each payment to be applied to outstanding principal prospectively. As a result, and in combination with other governance changes at BAM, White Mountains concluded that it no longer has the power to direct BAM’s activities that most significantly impact its economic performance and is no longer BAM’s primary beneficiary. Accordingly, effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM.
BAM’s assets can only be used to settle BAM’s obligations, and general creditors of BAM have no recourse to the Company or HG Global. HG Re’s obligations to BAM under the FLRT are subject to an aggregate limit equal to the assets in the Collateral Trusts at any point in time. As of December 31, 2025, the Collateral Trusts held assets of $1,006.5 million.
Distinguished
As of December 31, 2025, White Mountains had a 55.5% limited partnership interest in Distinguished. White Mountains has determined that Distinguished is a VIE. As a limited partnership, Distinguished is a VIE because the limited partnership interests do not have substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. White Mountains is the primary beneficiary of Distinguished, as it has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Distinguished’s economic performance through its control of Distinguished’s general partner and the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive returns, that could potentially be significant to Distinguished through its basic units owned. As a result, White Mountains consolidates Distinguished’s results in its financial statements. The assets of Distinguished can only be used to settle the liabilities of Distinguished, and there is no recourse to the Company for any creditors of Distinguished.

White Mountains does not have the unilateral power to direct the operations of PassportCard/DavidShield and does not hold a controlling financial interest.

Note 19. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Contingencies
White Mountains, and the insurance industry in general, is routinely subject to claims related litigation and arbitration in the normal course of business, as well as litigation and arbitration that do not arise from, nor are directly related to, claims activity. White Mountains’s estimates of the costs of settling matters routinely encountered in claims activity are reflected in the reserves for unpaid loss and LAE. See Note 5 — “Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves.”
White Mountains considers the requirements of ASC 450 when evaluating its exposure to non-claims related litigation and arbitration. ASC 450 requires that accruals be established for litigation and arbitration if it is probable that a loss has been incurred and it can be reasonably estimated. ASC 450 also requires that litigation and arbitration be disclosed if it is probable that a loss has been incurred or if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred. White Mountains does not have any current non-claims related litigation that may have a material adverse effect on White Mountains’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements included in this report. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Audit Committee of the Board, which is comprised entirely of independent, qualified directors, is responsible for the oversight of our accounting policies, financial reporting and internal control including the appointment and compensation of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee meets periodically with management, our independent registered public accounting firm and our internal auditors to ensure they are carrying out their responsibilities. The Audit Committee is also responsible for performing an oversight role by reviewing our financial reports. Our independent registered public accounting firm and internal auditors have full and unlimited access to the Audit Committee, with or without management present, to discuss the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting and any other matters which they believe should be brought to their attention.
MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
We assessed the effectiveness of White Mountains’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Our assessment did not include an assessment of the internal control over financial reporting for certain recent acquisitions. These acquisitions were Enterprise Solutions and Distinguished. The total assets and total revenues excluded from our assessment related to these acquisitions represent approximately 1% and 1%, respectively, of White Mountains’s total assets as of December 31, 2025 and approximately 4% and 2%, respectively, of White Mountains’s total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025. In making our assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, we have concluded that White Mountains maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of White Mountains’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 as stated in their report which appears on page F-81.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income (loss), of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing before page F-1 (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As described in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Enterprise Electric, LLC (“Enterprise Solutions”) and WM Phoenix Parent, L.P. and its subsidiaries (“Distinguished”) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2025. We have also excluded Enterprise Solutions and Distinguished from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Enterprise Solutions and Distinguished are majority-owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenues excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting represent approximately 1% and 1% of total assets, respectively and approximately 4% and 2% of total revenues, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
F - 81

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Valuation of Certain Other Long-Term Investments
As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2025, the Company's other long-term investments consisted primarily of unconsolidated entities, and the fair values of the most significant of these investments consist of DavidShield PassportCard Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“PassportCard/DavidShield”) for $170.0 million and certain participation contracts of Kudu Investment Management, LLC and its subsidiaries (“Kudu”), representing a portion of the total of Kudu's Participation Contracts of $1,285.0 million.
Management uses a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the fair value of these other long-term investments. Key inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis generally include (i) projections of future revenues and earnings, discount rates, and terminal revenue growth rates for PassportCard/DavidShield and (ii) projections of future revenues and earnings of Kudu's investees, discount rates, and terminal cash flow exit multiples for certain of Kudu's Participation Contracts.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of certain other long-term investments is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimates of these other long-term investments; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management's significant assumptions related to (a) projections of future revenues and earnings, discount rates, and terminal revenue growth rates for PassportCard/DavidShield and (b) projections of future revenues and earnings of Kudu's investees, discount rates and terminal cash flow exit multiples for certain of Kudu's Participation Contracts; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of certain other long-term investments, including controls over the Company's determination of significant assumptions. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data provided by management; (ii) evaluating the reasonableness of management's significant assumptions related to (a) projections of future revenues and earnings and terminal revenue growth rates for PassportCard/DavidShield and (b) projections of future revenues and earnings of Kudu's investees and terminal cash flow exit multiples for certain of Kudu's Participation Contracts; and (iii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in developing an independent fair value range for each of the aforementioned investments using independently determined assumptions related to discount rates and comparing the independent fair value range to management's estimate.
F - 82

Valuation of Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense (“LAE”) Reserves - Ark
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, loss and LAE reserves, including estimates for amounts incurred but not reported, are based on management's best estimate of the ultimate costs to settle claims, including the effects of inflation and other societal and economic factors. The Company's loss and LAE reserves as of December 31, 2025 for Ark Insurance Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries ("Ark") were $2,481.0 million. Management estimates the ultimate loss and LAE using various generally accepted actuarial methods applied to known losses and other relevant information. Ultimate loss and LAE are generally determined by extrapolation of claim emergence and settlement patterns observed in the past that can reasonably be expected to persist in the future. Management considers the Company's own experience, particularly claims development experience, such as trends in case reserves, payments on and closing of claims, as well as changes in business mix and coverage limits as the most important information for estimating its reserves. External market data is used to supplement or corroborate the Company's own experience. Ultimate loss and LAE for major losses and catastrophes are estimated based on the known and expected exposures to the loss event. Incurred but not reported reserves are adjusted as additional information becomes known or payments are made.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of the loss and LAE reserves for Ark is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimates of loss and LAE reserves; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management's actuarial methods and significant assumptions related to trends in case reserves, payments on and closing of claims, and changes in business mix and coverage limits; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of the loss and LAE reserves, including controls over management's actuarial methods and development of significant assumptions. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data provided by management and the relevance and reliability of the industry data and (ii) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating the reasonableness of management's estimates by performing one or a combination of procedures, including (a) developing an independent estimate of the reserves for loss and LAE on a sample basis and comparing the independent estimate to management's actuarially determined reserves; (b) evaluating the appropriateness of management's actuarial methods and the reasonableness of management's significant assumptions related to trends in case reserves, payments on and closing of claims and changes in business mix and coverage limits by considering historical data, loss development patterns, industry data and other benchmarks; and (c) evaluating the consistency of management's actuarial methods period-over-period.
Valuation of Build America Mutual (“BAM”) Surplus Notes
As described in Notes 2 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, on July 1, 2024 HG Re Ltd. (“HG Re”) and BAM amended the terms of the first loss reinsurance treaty with respect to certain governance rights held by HG Re. As a result, and in combination with other governance changes at BAM, the Company no longer consolidates BAM as of July 1, 2024. Upon deconsolidation, the Company elected the fair value option for the surplus notes issued by BAM (the "BAM Surplus Notes"). As of December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes was $339.0 million. Management estimates the fair value of the BAM Surplus Notes using a discounted cash flow analysis which depends on key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings for BAM, expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes through maturity and a discount rate to reflect time value and the related uncertainty of the repayment pattern. The expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results. The discount rate considers comparably-rated companies and instruments, adjusted for risks specific to BAM and the BAM Surplus Notes.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of the BAM Surplus Notes is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the BAM Surplus Notes; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management's significant assumptions related to projections of future revenues and earnings for BAM, expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes through maturity and the discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
