Equity [Abstract] |
Shareholders' Equity | 16. Shareholders’ Equity On August 28, 2020, Global Indemnity completed a scheme of arrangement and amalgamation that effected certain transactions (the "Redomestication") that resulted in the shareholders of Global Indemnity Limited becoming the holders of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Global Indemnity Group, LLC. The treasury shares of Global Indemnity Limited were not subject to the scheme of arrangement. The carrying value of the Global Indemnity Limited treasury shares, $4.1 million, were offset against the Additional Paid-in Capital account of Global Indemnity Limited, according to the Company’s policy regarding the treatment of treasury shares. Issuance of Preferred Shares On August 27, 2020, Global Indemnity Group, LLC issued and sold to Wyncote LLC (“Wyncote”), an affiliate of Fox Paine & Company, LLC, 4,000 Series A Preferred Interests at a price of $1,000 per Series A Preferred Interest, for the aggregate purchase price of $4,000,000. The issuance of Series A Preferred Interests to Wyncote was made pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Series A Preferred Interests are not convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities or property of Global Indemnity Group, LLC. The preferred shares are redeemable at the discretion of Global Indemnity Group, LLC after five years or at the discretion of the holders upon the occurrence of a change in control of Global Indemnity Group, LLC. While the preferred shares are non-voting, the preferred shareholders are entitled to appoint two additional members to Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s Board of Directors whenever the “Unpaid Targeted Priority Return” (as defined in the applicable Share Designation) with respect to the preferred shares exceed zero immediately following six or more “Distribution Dates” (as defined in the applicable Share Designation), whether or not such Distribution Dates occur consecutively and Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s Board of Directors is obligated to take, and cause Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s officers to take, any necessary actions to effectuate such appointments, including expanding the size of the Board of Directors, in connection with any exercise of the foregoing provisions. Following the effective time of the Redomestication (the “Effective Time”), all of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Interests sold to Wyncote remain outstanding as "Series A Cumulative Fixed Rate Preferred Shares", unaffected by the Scheme of Arrangement and subject to the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Global Indemnity Group, LLC (the “LLCA”) and that certain Share Designation, effective as of the Effective Time, that sets forth the designation, rights, preferences, powers, duties, restrictions, limitations and obligations of the Series A Cumulative Fixed Rate Preferred Shares from and after the Effective Time. Distribution Restrictions The ability of Global Indemnity Group, LLC to pay distributions is subject to applicable federal and state laws and Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s LLCA. Distributions of cash or other assets of Global Indemnity Group, LLC may be paid to Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s shareholders out of Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s assets legally available therefor only when, and if determined by the Board. Each Series A Preferred Shareholder is entitled to a “Priority Return” (as defined in the applicable Share Designation). On each Distribution Date, Global Indemnity Group, LLC shall make a distribution to each holder of the Series A Preferred Shares out of, and subject to a determination by the Board that the Company has on the applicable Distribution Date, funds legally available therefor, payable in cash only, in an amount equal to the estimated amount necessary to reduce the Unpaid Priority Return of each Series A Preferred Share immediately after such Distribution Date to zero. All such distributions shall be made pro rata in relation to each such Series A Preferred Share’s Unpaid Priority Return. Since Global Indemnity Group, LLC is a holding company and has no direct operations, its ability to pay distributions depends, in part, on the ability of its subsidiaries to generate income to pay dividends. Penn-Patriot Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries are subject to significant regulatory restrictions limiting their ability to declare and pay dividends. Global Indemnity Investments, Inc. is dependent on generating investment income in order to pay a dividend to Global Indemnity Group, LLC. See Note 22 for additional information regarding dividend limitations imposed on Penn-Patriot Insurance Company and its subsidiaries. Dividend / Distribution Program During the fourth quarter of 2017, Global Indemnity announced the adoption of a dividend / distribution program. Although subject to the absolute discretion of the Board of Directors and factors, conditions, and prospects as such may exist from time to time when the Board of Directors considers the advisability of declaring a quarterly dividend / distribution, Global Indemnity Group, LLC currently anticipates a distribution rate of $0.25 per share per quarter ($1.00 per share per year). Dividends/ Distributions Distribution payments of $0.25 per common share per quarter were declared during the year ended December 31, 2022 as follows:

On October 21, 2022, GBLI announced that it would commence a stock repurchase program beginning in the fourth quarter of 2022. Repurchases of up to $32 million of Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s currently outstanding class A common shares have been authorized by Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s Board of Directors. On January 3, 2023, the Company announced that it increased the stock repurchase authorization to $60 million. The authorization to repurchase will expire on December 31, 2027. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. Under the repurchase program, repurchases may be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, all in compliance with Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s Insider Trading Policy, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and other applicable legal requirements.
