Everest Re Group President & CEO Juan C. Andrade commented on the Company’s results:

“During the third quarter of 2021, Everest made significant progress toward the strategic plan objectives detailed in the June investor day presentation. We achieved outstanding top line premium growth across both of our insurance and reinsurance businesses, continued to improve the attritional profitability for our Insurance Division, remained focused on risk appetite discipline and the diversification of our business, demonstrated strong expense management, delivered excellent investment income results, opportunistically reduced our cost of capital, and returned capital to our shareholders. Despite the high frequency and severity of the natural catastrophe activity in the quarter, we also benefited from the de-risking of the CAT portfolio and we remain on track to achieve our total shareholder return objective. We continue to consistently demonstrate our ability to relentlessly execute against our plans regardless of the external environment.”

Reinsurance segment

• Reinsurance achieved excellent growth in the quarter, growing premium 19% year over year to $2.5 billion. The growth was driven by continued partnership with our core clients and Everest’s position as a preferred reinsurance platform. All target classes of business and geographies saw growth in the quarter, and our portfolio is benefiting from improved economic conditions and strong rate performance by our cedants.
• The attritional combined ratio for the quarter of 87.1% reflects the deliberate and targeted shaping of our portfolio to maximize long term results with a higher mix of pro rata structures, an improved balance of property and casualty exposures, prudence in loss ratio selections, and continuous expense discipline. The operating expense ratio of 2.3% is world class and demonstrates the scalability of our franchise.
• Reinsurance CAT losses for the quarter totaled $555 million net of recoveries and reinstatement premiums, driven by Hurricane Ida and the Berndt flooding event in Europe. The cumulative, deliberate, and purposeful actions we have taken to reduce volatility have reduced our company’s risk profile.

Insurance segment

• Everest Insurance reported another outstanding premium quarter with record quarterly growth of 43% driving over $1.0 billion in gross written premium for a second consecutive quarter. The exceptional growth in Q3 was driven by increasingly favorable economic conditions, new business growth, and the combined impact of strong renewal retention and a continuing favorable rate environment.
• The Insurance segment also continues to expand attritional underwriting margins with improvement in the loss and expense ratio and delivered a record-setting attritional combined ratio of 90.3%.
• These results reflect our relentless focus on execution and the success of our nimble and disciplined underwriting, which reacts quickly to market conditions and best positions our portfolio for long term profitability.

_______________________________________________

The Company generally uses after-tax operating income (loss), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate its performance. After-tax operating income (loss) consists of net income (loss) excluding after-tax net realized capital gains (losses) and after-tax net foreign exchange income (expense) as the following reconciliation displays:

(Some amounts may not reconcile due to rounding.)

Although net realized capital gains (losses) and net foreign exchange income (expense) are an integral part of the Company’s insurance operations, the determination of net realized capital gains (losses) and foreign exchange income (expense) is independent of the insurance underwriting process. The Company believes that the level of net realized capital gains (losses) and net foreign exchange income (expense) for any particular period is not indicative of the performance of the underlying business in that particular period. Providing only a GAAP presentation of net income (loss) makes it more difficult for users of the financial information to evaluate the Company’s success or failure in its basic business and may lead to incorrect or misleading assumptions and conclusions. The Company understands that the equity analysts who follow the Company focus on after-tax operating income (loss) in their analyses for the reasons discussed above. The Company provides after-tax operating income (loss) to investors so that they have what management believes to be a useful supplement to GAAP information concerning the Company’s performance.
