Debt • In the long-term, we plan to target a 20% to 25% debt to total capital ratio. • We plan to reduce, but not fully eliminate our long-term debt upon maturity. Equity • When management believes ACIC stock is undervalued, we may participate in stock buybacks. • Where the Company determines prudent, we may issue further shares to raise capital in lieu of debt issuance. Dividends • When our capital position is in excess of our projected needs, particularly, when we experience lower catastrophe losses than what management considers to be a typical year, a special dividend may be declared for shareholders. • As a catastrophe exposed underwriter, we believe this approach provides the Company with a stronger capital position than a regular quarterly dividend. • We are happy to announce our Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $0.50 per share of common stock payable on January 10, 2025, to shareholders of record on January 2, 2025.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures The Company believes that investors' understanding of ACIC's performance is enhanced by the Company's disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. The Company's methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. Core return on equity is a non-GAAP ratio calculated using non-GAAP measures. It is calculated by dividing the core income (loss) for the period by the average stockholders’ equity for the trailing twelve months (or one quarter of such average, in the case of quarterly periods). Core income (loss) is an after-tax non-GAAP measure that is calculated by excluding from net income (loss) the effect of income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, non-cash amortization of intangible assets, including goodwill, unrealized gains or losses on the Company's equity security investments and net realized gains or losses on the Company's investment portfolio. In the opinion of the Company’s management, core income (loss), core income (loss) per share and core return on equity are meaningful indicators to investors of the Company's underwriting and operating results, since the excluded items are not necessarily indicative of operating trends. Internally, the Company’s management uses core income (loss), core income (loss) per share and core return on equity to evaluate performance against historical results and establish financial targets on a consolidated basis. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is return on equity. The core return on equity measure should not be considered a substitute for return on equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business. Discontinued Operations On May 9, 2024, the Company entered into the Sale Agreement with Forza Insurance Holdings, LLC ("Forza") in which ACIC will sell and Forza will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company's subsidiary, IIC. In addition, on February 27, 2023, the Florida Department of Financial Services was appointed as a receiver of the Company's former subsidiary, UPC. As such, prior year financial results and Consolidated Balance Sheet components have been reclassified to reflect continuing and discontinued operations appropriately.
