The Company’s improved underwriting results demonstrate the early benefits of this strategy. Presurance has continued to reshape its underwriting portfolio toward select personal lines homeowners’ risks with attractive long-term characteristics, while moving away from previously written commercial lines risks that contributed substantially to prior losses.

Commercial lines represented 0% of the Company’s total gross written premium in the second quarter of 2026, reflecting the continued runoff of legacy commercial exposures.

This planned reduction has strengthened the Company’s risk profile, lowered earnings volatility, and supported its move toward a more focused, sustainable business mix.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

Presurance prepares its public financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Statutory data is prepared in accordance with statutory accounting rules as defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' (NAIC) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual and therefore is not reconciled to GAAP data.

We believe that investors’ understanding of the Company’s performance is enhanced by our disclosure of adjusted operating income. Our method of calculating this measure may differ from that used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. We define adjusted operating income (loss), a non-GAAP measure, as net income (loss) excluding: 1) net realized investment gains (losses), 2) change in fair value of equity securities, 3) Change in fair value of contingent considerations, 4) Contingent consideration bonus expense and 5) Additional accretion of warrants from Series B Preferred Stock payoff. We use adjusted operating income as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into the results of our operations and underlying business performance.
