Prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO, substantially all of TWFG Holding’s outstanding ownership interests in the form of limited liability company units (the “LLC Units”), including its Class A common unit interests, Class B common unit interests and Class C common unit interests, were owned beneficially by Bunch Family Holdings, LLC (“Bunch Holdings”), which is owned by Richard F. (“Gordy”) Bunch III, the Chief

Reorganization Transactions
In connection with the IPO, TWFG Holding completed the following series of transactions to implement an internal reorganization on July 19, 2024, which are collectively referred to as the Reorganization Transactions. The Pre-IPO LLC Members who retained their equity ownership in the LLC Units, following the consummation of the Reorganization Transactions are referred to as “Continuing Pre-IPO LLC Members”.
The Company, TWFG Holding and each of the Pre-IPO LLC Members entered into the third amended and restated TWFG Holding LLC agreement (the “TWFG LLC Agreement”), which, among other things, appointed the Company as the sole managing member of TWFG Holding and modified the TWFG Holding capital structure by reclassifying the interests held by the Pre-IPO LLC Members and the New Members into a single new class of non-voting common interest units;
TWFG, Inc.’s certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of three classes of common stock: Class A Common Stock, non-economic Class B common stock (“Class B Common Stock” or “Class B Voting Stock”) and non-economic Class C common stock (“Class C Common Stock” or “Class C Voting Stock”). Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, each share of Class B Voting Stock entitles its holder to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders and each share of Class C common stock initially entitles its holder to ten votes per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Each share of non-economic Class C Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share automatically (i) 12 months following the death or disability of Richard F. (“Gordy”) Bunch III or (ii) upon the first trading day on or after such date that the outstanding shares of non-economic Class C Common Stock represent less than 10% of the then-outstanding Class A Common Stock, non-economic Class B Common Stock and non-economic Class C Common Stock, which, in either instance, may be extended to 18 months upon affirmative approval of a majority of the independent directors;
342,362 LLC Units held by Bunch Holdings were exchanged into 342,362 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company;
Bunch Holdings was issued 33,893,810 shares of non-economic Class C Common Stock, RenRe was issued 5,457,417 shares of non-economic Class B Common Stock; GHC was issued 1,820,234 shares of non-economic Class B Common Stock; and the New Members were issued 1,819,512 shares of Class A Common Stock, each in an amount equal to the number of LLC Units previously held by each such Pre-IPO LLC Member and New Members;
Under the TWFG LLC Agreement, the Pre-IPO LLC Members have the right, from and after the completion of the IPO, to require TWFG Holding to redeem all or a portion of their LLC Units for, at the Company’s election, newly-issued shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis or a cash payment equal to the volume weighted average market price of one share of Class A Common Stock for each LLC Unit redeemed (subject to customary adjustments, including for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications) in accordance with the terms of the TWFG LLC Agreement. Additionally, in the event of a redemption request by a holder of LLC Units, the Company may, at its option, effect a direct exchange of cash or Class A Common Stock for LLC Units in lieu of such a redemption. Shares of non-economic Class B Common Stock or non-economic Class C Common Stock, as applicable, will be cancelled on a one-for-one basis if the Company, following a redemption request of a holder of LLC Units, redeems or exchanges LLC Units of such holder of LLC Units pursuant to the terms of the TWFG LLC Agreement. Except for transfers to the Company pursuant to the TWFG LLC Agreement or to certain permitted transferees, the holders of LLC Units are not permitted to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any LLC Units or shares of non-economic Class B Common Stock or non-economic Class C Common Stock;
The Company used the net proceeds from the IPO (including the net proceeds received from the underwriters exercising their option to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock) to acquire a number of newly-issued LLC Units equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued in the IPO from TWFG
Holding, at a purchase price per LLC Unit equal to the initial public offering price of Class A Common Stock after underwriting discounts and commissions; and
The Company caused TWFG Holding to use the proceeds it received from the sale of LLC Units to the Company to pay fees and expenses of approximately $7.8 million in connection with the IPO and the Reorganization Transactions and to repay in full outstanding debt under the Revolving Credit Agreement in the amount of $41.0 million.
As part of the Reorganization Transactions, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement that obligates the Company to make payments to the Continuing Pre-IPO LLC Members and any future party to the tax receivable agreement generally equal to 85% of the applicable cash savings that the Company actually realizes as a result of certain tax basis adjustments resulting from the purchase of LLC Units from any of the Continuing Pre-IPO LLC Members using the net proceeds from any future offering, future taxable redemptions or exchanges of LLC Units by the holders of LLC Units and from payments made under the tax receivable agreement, as well as tax benefits related to imputed interest resulting from payments made under the tax receivable agreement. The Company retains the benefit of the remaining 15% of these tax savings. The corporate structure following the completion of the IPO and Reorganization Transactions, as described above, is commonly referred to as an “Up-C” structure, which is used by partnerships and limited liability companies when they undertake an IPO of their business. The Up-C structure will allow the Continuing Pre-IPO LLC Members to continue to realize tax benefits associated with owning interests in an entity that is treated as a partnership, or “pass-through” entity, for income tax purposes following the IPO.
On July 19, 2024, in connection with the Reorganization Transactions, immediately prior to the IPO, the Company issued (i) 2,161,874 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for 342,362 LLC Units held by Bunch Holdings and 1,819,512 LLC Units held by the New Members, (ii) 7,277,651 shares of Class B Common Stock to RenRe and GHC for consideration of $0.00001 per share and (iii) 33,893,810 shares of Class C Common Stock for consideration of $0.00001 per share to Bunch Holdings.
Immediately following the closing of the IPO, TWFG Holding is the predecessor of the Company for financial reporting purposes. As sole managing member of TWFG Holding, the Company has sole authority to determine the amount and timing of distributions from TWFG Holding. Because the Company manages and operates the business and controls the strategic decisions and day-to-day operations of TWFG Holding and also has a substantial financial interest in TWFG Holding, the Company consolidates the financial results of TWFG Holding, and a portion of the Company’s net income is allocated to the noncontrolling interests to reflect the entitlement of the Pre-IPO LLC Members to a portion of TWFG Holding’s net income. In addition, because TWFG Holding is under the control of Bunch Holdings before and after the Reorganization Transactions, the Company accounts for the Reorganization Transactions as a reorganization of entities under common control and initially measured the assets and liabilities of TWFG Holding at their carrying amounts as of the date of the completion of these Reorganization Transactions.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. TWFG Holding was determined to be a variable interest entity and the Company is considered the primary beneficiary and sole managing member of TWFG Holding and has decision making authority that significantly affects the performance of the entity. The Company consolidates TWFG Holding in its condensed consolidated financial statements and records noncontrolling interests representing the portion of earnings attributable to the economic interest in TWFG Holding held by the Continuing Pre-IPO LLC Members. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
The Company is an emerging growth company and elects to avail itself of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards.
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 the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected within these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, intangible assets, lease right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities, and acquisitions. Actual results could differ from those estimates as more information becomes known.
