In these Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms "Hagerty," and the "Company" refer to Hagerty, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including The Hagerty Group, LLC ("THG"), unless the context requires otherwise. In addition, the Company's insurance policyholders and paid Hagerty Drivers Club ("HDC") subscribers are collectively referred to as "Members".

Description of Business — Hagerty is a market leader in providing insurance for classic cars and enthusiast vehicles. Through Hagerty's insurance model, the Company acts as a Managing General Agent ("MGA") by underwriting, selling, and servicing classic car and enthusiast vehicle insurance policies. The Company then reinsures a large portion of the risks written by its MGA subsidiaries through its wholly owned subsidiary, Hagerty Reinsurance Limited ("Hagerty Re"). In addition, Hagerty offers HDC memberships, which can be bundled with its insurance policies and give subscribers access to an array of products and services, including Hagerty Drivers Club Magazine, automotive enthusiast events, Hagerty's proprietary vehicle valuation tool, emergency roadside assistance, and special vehicle-related discounts. Lastly, to complement its insurance membership offerings, the Company offers Hagerty Marketplace ("Marketplace"), where car enthusiasts can buy, sell, and finance collector cars.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Basis of Presentation — The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include the accounts of Hagerty, Inc., which is comprised of THG and its consolidated subsidiaries. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this report, as permitted by such rules and regulations.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments and accruals that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented.

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Hagerty, Inc. had economic ownership of 26.1% and 24.9%, respectively, of THG and is its sole managing member. Hagerty, Inc. reports a non-controlling interest representing the economic interest in THG held by other parties.

The financial statements of THG are consolidated by the Company under the voting interest method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810, Consolidations ("ASC 810"). Non-controlling interest is presented separately on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Temporary Equity and Stockholders' Equity.

Variable Interest Entities — Broad Arrow Capital LLC ("BAC") and certain of its subsidiaries transfer notes receivable to wholly owned, bankruptcy-remote, special purpose entities (each, an "SPE") to secure borrowings under the BAC Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 14 — Long-Term Debt).

These SPEs are considered to be variable interest entities (each, a "VIE") under GAAP and their financial statements are consolidated by BAC, which is the primary beneficiary of the SPEs and also a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. BAC is considered to be the primary beneficiary of the SPEs because it has (i) power over the significant activities of the SPEs through its role as servicer of the notes receivable used to secure borrowings under the BAC Credit Agreement and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns that could be significant through its interest in the residual cash flows of the SPEs.

Emerging Growth Company — The Company currently qualifies as an "emerging growth company" under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 and can delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards would apply to private companies.

The Company intends to avail itself of this extended transition period and, therefore, the Company may not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or have opted out of using such extended transition period. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not delayed the adoption of any new or revised accounting standards despite qualifying as an emerging growth company.

Reclassifications — Certain prior period operating lease balances on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows originally reported within changes in "Other assets and liabilities, net" are now reported within "Non-cash lease expense" to conform to the current year presentation.

Further, in conjunction with Hagerty Re's investment diversification in the second quarter of 2024, prior period fixed maturity investment balances have been reclassified from "Other current assets" and "Other long-term assets" to "Investments" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to conform to the current year presentation. Refer to Note 3 — Investments for additional information related to the Company's investment portfolio.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although the estimates are considered reasonable, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to: (i) the provision for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, including incurred but not reported claims (see Note 11); (ii) the valuation of the Company's deferred income tax assets (see Note 20); (iii) the amount of the liability associated with the Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA") (see Note 20); (iv) the fair values of the reporting units used in assessing the recoverability of goodwill; (v) the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets (see Note 10); and (vi) the fair value of the Company's previous warrant liabilities (see Note 4 and Note 17). Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes that the current estimates are reasonable in all material respects. These estimates are reviewed regularly and adjusted, as necessary. Adjustments related to changes in estimates are reflected in the Company's results of operations in the period during which those estimates changed.

Segment Information — The Company has one operating segment and one reportable segment. The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), who makes resource allocation decisions and assesses performance based on consolidated financial information. The Company's segment presentation reflects a management approach that utilizes a decision making framework with its Members and customers at the center of all decisions, which requires the CODM to have a consolidated view of the Company's results.

Investments — Fixed maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value, with those having maturity dates within one year of the balance sheet date classified within current assets. On a quarterly basis, fixed maturity securities with unrealized losses are reviewed to determine whether the decline in fair value is attributable to a material credit loss. If a material credit loss is noted, an allowance is established and the credit loss is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturity securities are recorded within "Change in net unrealized gain on available-for-sale investments", a component of "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Realized investment gains or losses from sales of available-for-sale investments are recorded within "Interest and other income (expense), net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest on fixed maturity securities is recorded within "Interest and other income (expense), net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted, respectively, over the lives of the related fixed maturity securities as an adjustment to the yield using the effective interest method.

Equity securities are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value and are classified within current assets. Dividend income, as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities are recorded within "Interest and other income (expense), net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(1) In certain situations, BAC makes loans to refinance accounts receivable balances generated by Broad Arrow Group, Inc. ("Broad Arrow") auction or private sale purchases. These loans are accounted for on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as non-cash reclassifications between "Accounts receivable" and "Notes receivable" and are not presented within Investing Activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Upon repayment, the cash received in settlement of such loans is classified within Operating Activities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company's MGA subsidiaries collect premiums from insureds on behalf of insurance carriers. Prior to remittance to the insurance carrier, these funds are required to be held in trust for the benefit of the insurance carriers and segregated from the Company's operating cash.

On September 1, 2024, the Company acquired Consolidated National Insurance Company, which was subsequently renamed Drivers Edge Insurance Company ("Drivers Edge"). Drivers Edge maintains assets on deposit with a number of regulatory authorities to support its insurance operations. Refer to Note 8 — Acquisition for additional information related to the Company's acquisition of Drivers Edge.

BAC and its consolidated subsidiaries maintain bank accounts that are required for the operation of the BAC Credit Facility (as defined in Note 14 — Long-Term Debt). The funds in these bank accounts represent security under the BAC Credit Facility and their use is restricted to the servicing of the debt outstanding under that facility.

Income Taxes — In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09 - Income Taxes (ASC 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU No. 2023-09 modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (ii) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign), and (iii) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU No. 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still assessing the impact of ASU No. 2023-09 and upon adoption may be required to include certain additional disclosures in the footnotes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
