(1) Combined statutory capital equals the sum of statutory capital of Essent Guaranty, Inc. plus Essent Guaranty of PA, Inc., after eliminating the impact of intercompany transactions. Statutory capital is computed based on accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Pennsylvania Insurance Department and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual.

(2) Net risk in force represents total risk in force, net of reinsurance ceded and net of exposures on policies for which loss reserves have been established.

(3) The risk-to-capital ratio is calculated as the ratio of net risk in force to statutory capital.

(4) The combined risk-to-capital ratio equals the sum of the net risk in force of Essent Guaranty, Inc. and Essent Guaranty of PA, Inc. divided by the combined statutory capital.

(5) Data is based on our interpretation of the PMIERs as of the dates indicated.

(6) PMIERs sufficiency ratio is calculated by dividing Available Assets by Minimum Required Assets.

We believe that loss, expense and combined ratios are important measures of our financial performance. As a result of the July 1, 2023 acquisition of Agents National Title and Boston National Title (collectively "Title"), the consolidated loss, expense and combined ratios ("Consolidated Ratios") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 lack comparability with prior periods. In order to provide investors with more comparative information to prior periods, Essent has prepared the table below to reconcile the Consolidated Ratios to Consolidated Ratios Excluding Title, as shown below. Consolidated Ratios Excluding Title are financial measures that are not calculated under standards or rules that comprise accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and are referred to as non-GAAP measures. Consolidated Ratios Excluding Title are measures used to monitor our results and should not be viewed as a substitute for those measures determined in accordance with GAAP.

 

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the loss, expense and combined Consolidated Ratios Excluding Title to the most comparable GAAP amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, in accordance with Regulation G:

(2) Expense ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of other underwriting and operating expenses and premiums retained by agents by the sum of net premiums earned and settlement services revenue, if applicable.

(3) Settlement services revenue is included in "Other income" within Exhibit A and Exhibit C.
