3 Executive Summary • Q2-24 Results • Non-GAAP Core Income of $19.6m ($0.40) decreased -$7.5m (-27.6%) from $27.1m ($0.62) y/y on higher ceded earned premiums resulting from the 40% gross CAT quota share effective 6.1.2023. • Gross premiums earned grew $5.6m (+3.7%) to $155.5m y/y. • Our combined ratio of 64.9% was on target but increased 1.8 points from 63.1% in the same period last year. • Current year net catastrophe losses in the quarter were effectively nil and we had $1.0m of favorable prior year reserve development. • Stockholders’ equity attributable to ACIC, increased to $223.1m or $4.63 per share and $5.03 per share excluding unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income. • Other Highlights • Completed catastrophe reinsurance program renewals effective 6.1.24 at lower cost due to replacing FORA and reducing the quota share. This sets up revenue and earnings in the next 4 quarters to compare favorably with the prior year and added more limit for a potential 3rd event and higher severity protection to support future exposure growth. • Executed definitive agreements to divest of Interboro Insurance Company and we anticipate closing during 1Q-25. As a result of the pending sale, IIC is now included in discontinued operations. • Began development of a new apartment product to be distributed and underwritten directly through our MGA, Skyway Underwriters. • Secured extension and regulatory approval of our exclusive MGA agreement with AmRisc to 1.1.29.

9 Investment Portfolio Overview • Focus on a resilient and high-quality portfolio considerate of current market conditions and risks. • Strong cash generation has propelled successive quarterly growth in investments and liquid assets.

10 Underwriting Environment • TIV down -1.7% and policy count down -5.8% YTD, but 100-YR PML up +3.5% due to model change. • Premiums in-force are up 2.0% to $656m with average premium up +8.3% YTD, but average renewal rates started to decline consistent with lower reinsurance costs. • Account retention was near target of 85% and submission volume remains strong, but accounts bound relative to submissions received and quotes provided are down y/y due to pricing. • Market appears to have peaked and is beginning to soften, but renewal pricing is holding close to expiring. AmCoastal is a market leader and expects to maintain its portfolio at comparable terms. • Valuation changes are slowing as replacement cost estimates reflect lower inflation pressure. • Our commercial residential take-out application for the October 27th, 2024 assumption date has been approved by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. Competition remains limited but is getting more aggressive and driving softer market conditions.
