Economic Environment

On April 2, 2025, the U.S.

government announced a “reciprocal tariff” strategy under the authority of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) entailing extensive global tariff increases, with the objective of rectifying trade practices that contribute to large and persistent annual U.S.

Strength of the Economy Generally.

Global tariffs have increased since the U.S.

administration announced a “reciprocal tariff” strategy on April 2, 2025, with the announced objective of rectifying trade practices that contribute to large and persistent annual U.S.

goods trade deficits.

The announcement of global tariffs disrupted international trade, sent shocks through the global economy, and heightened volatility in the financial markets.

subsequently postponed newly announced reciprocal tariffs, which took effect on August 7, 2025, as significant uncertainty remains.

On August 29, 2025, the U.S.

Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ruled that the U.S.

government had exceeded its authority under the IEEPA but permitted the tariffs to remain in effect to provide time for the government to appeal.

Supreme Court granted certiorari on September 9, 2025, and heard oral arguments on the case on November 5, 2025;

as of November 6, 2025, a decision is pending.

tariffs can add to inflation, and the Company believes that ongoing uncertainty may increase volatility in U.S.

equities and other risk assets, curb corporate capital and consumer spending and raise the risk of recession.

Market volatility and the risk of recession may impact the Company in different ways.

The Company believes that a recession may make it more likely that obligors whose obligations it guarantees will default.

However, market volatility may also cause credit spreads to widen as investors seek security, which tends to create new business opportunities for the Company.

At the end of August 2025, the latest published data available, the U.S.

unemployment rate, seasonally adjusted, stood at 4.3%, higher than the 4.1% where it started the year.

As of November 6, 2025, the U.S.

Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) had not released the three-month period ended September 30, 2025 (third quarter 2025) gross domestic product (GDP) estimate due to the 2025 U.S.

federal government shutdown.

According to the BEA’s third estimate of second quarter 2025 GDP, the latest BEA data available, GDP increased at an annual rate of 3.8%, compared to a real GDP decrease of 0.6% in the first quarter of 2025.

Since that time, there have been numerous changes to announced tariffs as well as legal actions relating to tariff policies, resulting in uncertainty as to the future levels of U.S.

For example, the U.S.

Supreme Court held on February 20, 2026, that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the President of the U.S.

to impose tariffs.

However, the U.S.

administration has indicated that tariffs found to be illegal by the U.S.

Supreme Court will be replaced with alternative tariffs.

trading partners have announced or imposed tariffs or other trading restrictions in response to U.S.

These actions by the U.S.

and its trading partners have disrupted international trade and are negatively impacting the U.S.

and global economies.

According to the first quarter 2026 advance estimate released by the U.S.

Bureau of Economic Analysis, real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 2.0% in first quarter 2026, compared to a real GDP increase of 0.5% in the fourth quarter of 2025.

At the end of March 2026, the U.S.

unemployment rate, seasonally adjusted, stood at 4.3%, slightly lower than where it started the year at 4.4%.

The Company believes a more robust economy makes it less likely that obligors whose obligations it guarantees in its FG business will default, while a recession, if it were to occur, would make it more likely that obligors whose obligations it guarantees will default.

However, a recession may also cause credit spreads to widen as investors seek security, which tends to create new business opportunities for the Company in its financial guaranty business.

According to the U.S.

Bureau of Labor Statistics, the inflation rate in the U.S.

before seasonal adjustment for the 12-month period ending September 2025, as measured by the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, was 3.0%, as compared to 2.4% for the 12-month period ending September 2024.

According to the U.K.

Office for National Statistics, the Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers’ housing costs rose 4.1% for the 12 months through September 2025, as compared to 2.6% for the 12 months through September 2024.

before seasonal adjustment for the 12-month period ending March 2026, as measured by the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, was 3.3%, as compared to 2.4% for the 12-month period ending March 2025.

According to the United Kingdom (U.K.) Office for National

Statistics, the Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers’ housing costs rose 3.4% for the 12 months through March 2026, the same as for the 12 months through March 2025.

The most recent events around the Strait of Hormuz have caused oil prices to rise, which the Company believes has increased upward pressure on inflation, especially in the U.K.

Generally, inflation reduces the real value of money over time.

affects reported net par outstanding for certain U.K.

exposures with $25.1 billion of net par outstanding as of September 30, 2025, and also affects projected future installment premiums on the portion of such exposure that pays at least a portion of the premium on an installment basis over the term of the exposure.

At its September 2024 meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to lower the federal funds rate, which was a reversal of the rate increases it had initiated in March 2022 to combat inflation.

The federal funds rate is the rate at which banks lend to and borrow from each other, is the benchmark for most interest rates, and tends to influence mortgage rates.

exposures with $24.0 billion of net par outstanding as of March 31, 2026, and also affects projected future installment premiums on the portion of such exposure that pays at least a portion of the premium on an installment basis over the term of the exposure.

The Company’s U.K.

bulk purchase annuity (pension risk transfer, PRT) reinsurance business is also subject to U.K.

inflation, as the annuity payments under such transactions are typically adjusted for changes in U.K.

consumer price or retail price indices, meaning that the projected benefit obligations the Company reinsures increase in an inflationary environment, which in turn can increase the Company’s benefit payments under those reinsurance contracts.

The Company holds inflation-linked assets, including index-linked gilts and inflation swaps, to mitigate this inflation exposure.

Interest Rates.

The federal funds rate is the rate at which U.S.

banks lend to and borrow from each other, is the benchmark for most U.S.

interest rates, and tends to influence U.S.

mortgage rates.

As the federal funds rate decreases, interest rates, including mortgage rates, tend to decrease.

From September 2024 through December 2024, the FOMC lowered the federal funds rate from a target range of 5.25% to 5.50% to a range of 4.25% to 4.50%.

At the FOMC’s first five meetings of 2025, it held the federal funds rate at a target range of 4.25% to 4.50%, before deciding at its September 2025 meeting to further lower the federal funds rate to a target range of 4.00% to 4.25%, stating that it is strongly committed to maximum employment and returning inflation to its 2% objective.

Most recently, at its October 2025 meeting, the FOMC lowered the federal funds rate to a target range of 3.75% to 4.00%.

In considering additional adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the FOMC has indicated it will carefully assess incoming data, the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks.

These assessments will take into account a wide range of information, including readings on labor market conditions, inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and financial and international developments.

From 2022 through November 2025, the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) took actions similar to those of the FOMC to combat inflation and spur economic growth.

In 2022, the MPC raised the Bank of England base rate (Bank Rate) from historic lows in response to surging inflation, increasing the rate multiple times into 2023 as inflation remained high above MPC’s 2% target.

By the end of 2023, the MPC signaled a pause in further increases as inflation began to

decline and economic growth slowed.

During 2024, as inflationary pressures eased further and the U.K.

economy showed signs of stagnation or mild recession, the MPC kept the rate unchanged for most of the year, before beginning to decrease the Bank Rate in August 2024.

In 2025, with inflation being closer to the MPC’s target level and economic growth slowed, the MPC further lowered the Bank Rate several times, standing at 4.00% as of November 6, 2025, aiming to support economic growth while maintaining price stability.

From September 2024 through December 2025, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) lowered the federal funds rate from a target range of 5.25% to 5.50% to a range of 3.50% to 3.75%.

Most recently, at its April 2026 meeting, the FOMC held the federal funds rate at a target range of 3.50% to 3.75%, stating that it is strongly committed to supporting maximum employment and returning inflation to its 2% objective.

From 2024, the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) took actions similar to those of the FOMC to spur economic growth.

As inflationary pressures eased and the U.K.

economy showed signs of stagnation or mild recession, the MPC kept the Bank of England base rate (Bank Rate) unchanged for most of 2024, before beginning to decrease the Bank Rate in August 2024.

In 2025 and early 2026, with inflation being closer to the MPC’s target level and economic growth slowed, the MPC further lowered the Bank Rate several times.

As of April 30, 2026, the Bank Rate stood at 3.75%, down from a high of 5.25% in mid-2024.

The level and direction of change of interest rates and credit spreads impact the Company in numerous ways.

On the one hand, lower interest rates may increase the fair value of fixed-maturity securities currently held in the Company’s investment portfolio, encourage municipal and infrastructure bond issuance and positively impact the finances of some of the obligors whose payments the Company insures.

On the other hand, lower interest rates may decrease the base on which the Company charges up-front premium on most new municipal and infrastructure bond transactions and may also decrease amounts the Company can earn on fixed-maturity securities newly acquired for its investment portfolio.

Lower interest rates also are often accompanied by narrower credit spreads, which may also decrease the level of premiums the Company can charge for transactions.

On the other hand, lower interest rates may decrease the base on which the Company charges up-front premium on most new municipal and infrastructure bond transactions and may also decrease amounts the Company can earn on securities newly acquired for its investment portfolio.

Lower interest rates also are often accompanied by narrower credit spreads, which may also decrease the level of premiums the Company can charge for its FG transactions.

The most recent events around the Strait of Hormuz have caused oil prices to rise, which the Company believes has increased upward pressure on interest rates, especially in the U.K.

Credit Spreads.

The 30-year AAA Municipal Market Data (MMD) rate is a measure of interest rates in the Company’s largest financial guaranty insurance market, U.S.

public finance.

The MMD rate averaged 4.52% for the quarter ended September 2025, higher than the 4.47% average for the quarter ended June 2025 and higher than the 3.60% average for the quarter ended September 2024.

Meanwhile, the difference, or credit spread, between the 30-year BBB-rated general obligation relative to the 30-year AAA MMD averaged 90 basis points (bps) for the quarter ended September 2025, which is the same as the 90 bps average for the quarter ended June 2025 and the quarter ended September 2024.

The MMD rate averaged 4.30% for the quarter ended March 2026, higher than the 4.18% average rate for the quarter ended December 2025 and higher than the 4.04% average rate for the quarter ended March 2025.

Meanwhile, the difference, or credit spread, between the 30-year BBB rated general obligation relative to the 30-year AAA MMD averaged 84 basis points (bps) for the quarter ended March 2026, which is narrower compared to the 88 bps average for the quarter ended December 2025 and narrower compared to the 90 bps average for the quarter ended March 2025.

The Company believes that wider spreads could permit it to increase its premium rates on new business.

According to Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rate averaged 6.30% for the week ending September 25, 2025, higher than the 30-year mortgage rate average of 6.08% from one year ago.

The National Association of Realtors reported that there was a 4.1% increase in year-over-year existing-home sales from September 2024 to September 2025, and that the median existing-home sales price increased 2.1% from September 2024 ($406,700) to September 2025 ($415,200).

Residential Mortgage Rates .

According to Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rate averaged 6.38% for the week ending March 26, 2026, lower than the 30-year mortgage rate average of 6.65% from one year ago.

The National Association of Realtors reported that there was a 3.6% decrease in year-over-year existing-home sales from March 2025 to March 2026, and that the median existing-home sales price increased 1.4% from March 2025 ($403,100) to March 2026 ($408,800).

Higher housing prices may benefit distressed residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) the Company insures.

Foreign Exchange Rates .

For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the exchange rates between the pound sterling and the U.S.

dollar and between the euro and the U.S.

dollar traded in a tight range, both finishing the quarter near where they started.

The Company is subject to foreign exchange risk in several areas of its business.

First, with respect to the financial guaranty business, the Company guarantees non-U.S.

obligations denominated primarily in pound sterling and euros, and also invests in pound sterling and euro denominated investments.

Second, PRT reinsurance liabilities are denominated in pound sterling, along with the assets (after hedging) supporting this business.

The impact of fluctuations in the pound sterling/U.S.

dollar exchange rate on premiums receivable, financial guaranty loss reserves and PRT liabilities, along with any cross-currency derivatives, is reflected in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, while the impact of fluctuations in the pound sterling/U.S.

(iii) alternative investments;

(i) growth of its insurance and asset management businesses;

(ii) loss mitigation;

Growth of the Insured Portfolio

The Company seeks to grow its financial guaranty insurance portfolio through new business production in each of its markets:

Insurance and Asset Management Growth

The Company seeks to grow its core FG insurance business through new business production in established sectors and jurisdictions and by entering into new markets, lines and classes of business.

In addition, the Company seeks to leverage its core credit competencies by expanding its business into additional revenue streams, such as annuity reinsurance and asset management, with the objective of diversifying its revenue streams and growing its net income.

FG Insurance Portfolio

The Company seeks to grow its FG insurance portfolio through new business production in each of its markets:

public finance (including infrastructure) and structured finance.

The Company believes high-profile defaults by municipal obligors, such as Puerto Rico, Detroit, Michigan and Stockton, California as well as events such as the COVID-19 pandemic have led to increased awareness of the value of bond insurance and stimulated demand for the product.

The Company believes there will be continued demand for its insurance in this market because, for those exposures that the Company guarantees, it undertakes the tasks of credit selection, analysis, negotiation of terms, surveillance and, if necessary, loss mitigation.

municipal credit spreads from when the financial crisis began in 2008 through early 2020 dampened demand for bond insurance compared with the levels before the financial crisis.

After the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, credit spreads initially widened as a result of market concerns about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on some municipal credits, thereby improving demand for financial guaranty insurance even in a low interest rate environment, before narrowing again in 2022.

Merger of the U.S.

Insurance Subsidiaries

On August 1, 2024, the Company reorganized its U.S.

corporate structure and Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp.

(AGM) merged with and into Assured Guaranty Inc.

(AG, formerly known as Assured Guaranty Corp.), with AG as the surviving company.

Upon the merger all liabilities of AGM, including insurance policies issued or assumed by AGM, became obligations of AG.

The Company believes that Assured Guaranty’s simplified organizational and capital structure following the merger will help it grow its business.

The combined company, as compared with either AG or AGM before the merger, has a larger,

more highly diversified insured portfolio, a larger investment portfolio and a larger capital base, creating a more efficient capital structure and greater claims-paying resources.

In addition, the combined company, as compared with either AG or AGM before the merger, has larger regulatory single risk limits.

Such limits are applicable to each individual financial guaranty insurer for obligations issued by a single entity and backed by a single revenue source.

Since the combined company has greater statutory capital (i.e., combined policyholder’s surplus and contingency reserves), as compared to standalone AG or AGM before the merger, the dollar amounts for its single risk limits on obligations issued by a single entity and backed by a single revenue source are also greater.

The Company has recently undertaken, and continues to undertake, several initiatives to broaden its insurance lines and classes of business, and improve the efficiency of its secondary market execution.

For example, the Company has enhanced its structured finance new business production by developing fund finance into a flow business line.

In addition, the Company is pursuing nonpayment insurance business strategies through internal and/or external growth opportunities.

Annuity Reinsurance

On January 21, 2026, the Company purchased all of the outstanding share capital in Warwick Company (UK) Limited (Warwick), which is the 100% indirect owner of Assured Life Re, formerly known as Warwick Re Limited, for a purchase price of $158 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments (Assured Life Re Acquisition).

Assured Life Re is a Class E long-term (life) reinsurance company incorporated and registered in Bermuda.

Assured Life Re focuses on annuity reinsurance including U.K.

multi-year guaranteed annuity (MYGA) transactions.

The Company believes that the acquisition of the Assured Life Re platform will provide it with annuity business opportunities that complement its financial guaranty and asset management businesses, are consistent with its risk profile and benefit from its core competencies, including credit analysis and underwriting.

The Assured Life Re Acquisition represents the Company’s first platform dedicated solely to the annuity reinsurance business.

The Company continues to investigate additional opportunities in the annuity reinsurance business and in other businesses in line with its risk profile and that would benefit from its core competencies.

Asset Management

The Company participates in the asset management business through its ownership interest in Sound Point, and does not directly manage investments for third parties.

The Company’s ownership interest in Sound Point furthers its growth strategy

of participating in a diversifying fee-based earnings stream independent of the risk-based premiums generated by its FG business.

Loss Mitigation

In an effort to avoid, reduce or recover losses and potential losses in its insurance portfolio, the Company employs a number of strategies.

In an effort to avoid, reduce or recover losses and potential losses in its financial guaranty insurance portfolio, the Company employs a number of strategies.

In the public finance area, the Company believes its experience and the resources it is prepared to deploy, as well as its ability to provide bond insurance or other solutions, result in more favorable outcomes in distressed public finance situations than would be the case without its participation.

This has been illustrated by the Company’s role in negotiating various agreements in connection with the restructuring of obligations of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and various obligations of its related authorities and public corporations, as well as Detroit, Michigan and Stockton, California.

Shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.

The timing, form and amount of the share repurchases under the program are at the discretion of management and will depend on a variety of factors, including funds available at the parent company, other potential uses for such funds, market conditions, the Company’s capital position, legal requirements and other factors.

The repurchase program may be modified, extended or terminated by the Board at any time and it does not have an expiration date.

See Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 12, Shareholders’ Equity, for additional information about the Company’s repurchases of its common shares.

Third Quarter 2025 Compared with Third Quarter 2024

Net income attributable to AGL for third quarter 2025 was lower compared with the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 (third quarter 2024) primarily due to foreign exchange losses on remeasurement of $23 million in third quarter 2025 compared with foreign exchange gains on remeasurement of $55 million in third quarter 2024, and lower loss and LAE benefit in third quarter 2025.

Nine Months 2025 Compared with Nine Months 2024

Net income attributable to AGL for nine months 2025 was higher compared with nine months 2024 primarily due to:

• a fair value gain on credit derivatives related to the resolution of the LBIE litigation of $103 million in nine months 2025,

• foreign exchange gains on remeasurement of $93 million in nine months 2025, compared with of $43 million in nine months 2024,

• higher equity in earnings of investees in nine months 2025, primarily generated by the Company’s investments in Sound Point, healthcare funds and legacy alternative investments, and

• higher net investment income in nine months 2025 primarily due to investment income on collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) equity tranches in the available-for-sale portfolio.

These increases were offset in part by:

• a loss and LAE in nine months 2025 of $38 million, compared with a benefit of $54 million in nine months 2024,

• lower fair value gains on trading securities, which primarily consist of Puerto Rico contingent value instruments (CVIs) in nine months 2025,

• net realized investment losses in nine months 2025 primarily due to changes in the allowance for credit losses for alternative investments and Loss Mitigation Securities and realized losses on sales of securities, and

• lower net earned premiums in nine months 2025, compared with nine months 2024 due to lower refundings of financial guaranty insurance exposures.

First Quarter 2026 Compared with First Quarter 2025

Net income attributable to AGL for first quarter 2026 was lower compared with first quarter 2025 primarily due to the following:

• a fair value gain on credit derivatives related to the resolution of the LBIE litigation of $103 million in first quarter 2025,

• foreign exchange losses on remeasurement of $19 million in first quarter 2026, compared with gains of $37 million in first quarter 2025, and

• lower equity in earnings of investees in first quarter 2026, primarily due to losses generated by the Company’s investment in a collateralized loan obligation (CLO) fund.

These decreases were partially offset by:

• a discrete tax benefit of $33 million in first quarter 2026 resulting from the enactment of the U.K.

Finance Act 2026, which clarified that certain Bermuda pre-regime deferred taxes are excluded from covered taxes under the Pillar Two global minimum tax framework,

• the increase of $25 million in performance fees (net of related expenses) due to the impact of the payout of carried interest from the sale of the underlying asset in a single-asset fund in first quarter 2026, and

• a lower loss and LAE in first quarter 2026 of $17 million, compared with a loss and LAE of $40 million in first quarter 2025.

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income in third quarter 2025 was $124 million, compared with $130 million in third quarter 2024.

Other Matters

By some key measures, consumer price inflation in the U.S.

was higher in recent years than it has been in decades.

In addition, government policies such as increased deficit spending or the imposition of tariffs on imported goods could increase inflationary pressures in the future.

Consumer price inflation in the U.K.

can impact the Company directly by increasing exposure for certain index-linked U.K.

debt with par that accretes based on inflation, and also by increasing projected future installment premiums on the portion of such exposure that pays at least some of the premium on an installment basis over the term of the exposure.

Consumer price inflation may also impact the Company indirectly to the extent it makes it more difficult for obligors to make their debt payments.

The Company’s surveillance and treasury functions reviewed the Company’s insurance and investment portfolios for exposure to the Middle East and identified no material direct exposure to the area.

The Company’s direct insurance exposure to the area is generally limited to funded and unfunded commitments to fund finance facilities.

When fund finance facilities are launched, they obtain aggregate commitments across numerous investors in the fund.

For certain facilities guaranteed by the Company, a small minority of investors, generally sovereign wealth funds and pensions, are domiciled in the Middle East.

Fund finance facilities guaranteed by the Company are always overcollateralized with uncalled capital commitments exceeding borrowings, and defaults of Middle East investors alone cannot cause a loss.

Such facilities have additional mitigants, including the ability to call on performing investors to cover the obligations of defaulting investors and rights to sell defaulting positions to other investors at a discount.

The Company rates all such insurance exposure investment grade.

The most recent events around the Strait of Hormuz have caused oil prices to rise, which the Company believes has increased upward pressure on interest rates and inflation, especially in the U.K.

For information on the impact on the Company of any future increases in interest rates and inflation, see “ — Overview — Economic Environment — Inflation" and " — Interest Rates.”

Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has led to the imposition of economic sanctions by many western countries against Russia and certain Russian individuals, dislocation in global energy markets, massive refugee movements and payment default by certain Russian credits.

The economic sanctions imposed by western governments, along with decisions by private companies regarding their presence in Russia, continue to reduce western economic ties to Russia and to reshape global economic and political ties more generally, and the Company cannot predict all of the potential effects of the conflict on the world or on the Company.

The Company’s surveillance and treasury functions have reviewed the Company’s insurance and investment portfolios, respectively, and have identified no material direct exposure to Ukraine or Russia.

In fact, the Company’s direct insurance exposure to Eastern Europe generally is limited to $210 million in net par outstanding as of September 30, 2025, comprising of the sovereign debt of Poland.

In fact, the Company’s direct insurance exposure to Eastern Europe generally is limited to $196 million in net par outstanding as of March 31, 2026, consisting of the sovereign debt of Poland.

The Company rates this exposure investment grade.

Middle East Conflict

In light of events in the Middle East, the Company’s surveillance and treasury functions have reviewed the Company’s insurance and investment portfolios, respectively, for exposures to the Middle East.

After review, the Company’s surveillance and treasury functions have identified no material direct exposure to such area.

The Company’s direct insurance exposure to the Middle East is generally limited to funded and unfunded commitments to subscription finance facilities.

When subscription finance facilities are launched, they obtain aggregate commitments across numerous investors in the fund.

For certain facilities guaranteed by the Company, a small minority of investors are domiciled in the Middle East, which are generally sovereign wealth funds and pensions.

Subscription finance facilities guaranteed by the Company are always overcollateralized with uncalled capital commitments exceeding borrowings, and defaults of Middle East investors alone cannot cause a loss.

The Company rates all such insurance exposure investment grade.

Net Earned Premiums and Credit Derivative Revenues

Premiums are earned over the contractual lives, or in the case of insured obligations backed by homogeneous pools of assets, the remaining expected lives, of financial guaranty insurance contracts.

Premiums are earned over the contractual lives, or in the case of insured obligations backed by homogeneous pools of assets, the remaining expected lives, of FG insurance contracts.

The Company periodically estimates remaining expected lives of its insured obligations backed by homogeneous pools of assets and makes prospective adjustments for such changes in expected lives.

Scheduled net earned premiums decrease each year unless replaced by a higher amount of new business or books of business acquired in business combinations.

See Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 5, Contracts Accounted for as Insurance, Premiums, for additional information.

Financial Statements, Note 6.

Contracts Accounted for as Financial Guaranty Insurance, Premiums, for additional information.

Net earned premiums due to accelerations are attributable to changes in the expected lives of insured obligations driven by:

(i) refundings of insured obligations;

or (ii) terminations of insured obligations either through negotiated agreements or the exercise of the Company’s contractual rights to make claim payments on an accelerated basis.

or (ii) terminations or modifications of insured obligations either through negotiated agreements or the exercise of the Company’s contractual rights to make claim payments on an accelerated basis.

Refundings occur in the public finance market when municipalities and other public finance issuers pay down insured obligations prior to their originally scheduled maturities.

2 unchanged sentences

When issuers pay down insured obligations, the Company is no longer on risk for payment defaults and therefore accelerates the recognition of any remaining nonrefundable deferred premium revenue.

The amortization of the Company’s outstanding book of business along with the previously high levels of refunding activity and the higher interest rate environment has led to a lower volume of refunding opportunities over the last several years.

Terminations are generally negotiated agreements with beneficiaries resulting in the extinguishment of the Company’s insurance obligation.

Terminations have historically been more common in the structured finance asset class but may also occur in the public finance asset class.

The amortization of the Company’s outstanding book of business along with the previously high levels of refunding activity and the higher interest rate environment have led to a lower volume of refunding opportunities over the last several years.

Terminations are generally negotiated agreements with beneficiaries resulting in the extinguishment of the Company’s FG insurance obligation.

Terminations have historically been more common in the structured finance sector but may also occur in the public finance sector.

While each termination may have different terms, they all result in the expiration of the Company’s insurance risk, the acceleration of the recognition of the associated deferred premium revenue and the reduction of any remaining premiums receivable.

Equity in earnings (losses) of investees $ 8 $ 30

Net investment income for third quarter 2025 and nine months 2025 increased compared to third quarter 2024 and nine months 2024, primarily due to a shift in the portfolio from municipal securities to higher yielding corporate securities and investment income on CLO equity tranches in the available-for-sale portfolio.

Certain CLO equity tranche investments were reclassified to the available-for-sale fixed-maturity portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2024, with interest income now reported in net investment income, and changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income.

The Company had previously held the CLO equity tranches in a Sound Point managed fund with changes in net asset value (NAV) reported in “equity in earnings (losses) of investees.” Short-term investment income declined as a result of lower short-term interest rates and lower short-term average investment balances.

The Company’s overall pre-tax book yield of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities and short-term investments was 4.80% as of September 30, 2025 and 4.10% as of September 30, 2024.

RMBS was $69 million and was mainly attributable to a $41 million benefit from higher assumed recoveries for charged-off first and second lien loans and a $15 million benefit from higher assumed recoveries for deferred principal first lien balances.

Insurance Segment Loss Expense

The primary differences between net economic loss development and the amount reported as “loss and LAE (benefit)” in the consolidated statements of operations are that loss and LAE (benefit):

(i) considers deferred premium revenue in the calculation of loss reserves for financial guaranty insurance contracts;

The benefit attributable to other structured finance of $65 million was primarily attributable to recoveries related to the resolution of the LBIE litigation (see Item 1.

Financial Statements, Note 8.

Derivatives).

Financial Guaranty Segment Loss Expense

The primary differences between net economic loss development and the amount reported as “loss and LAE (benefit)” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations are that loss and LAE (benefit):

(i) considers deferred premium revenue in the calculation of loss reserves for FG insurance contracts;

(ii) eliminates loss and LAE related to FG VIEs;

and (iii) does not include estimated losses or benefits on credit derivatives.

For financial guaranty insurance contracts, each transaction’s expected loss to be expensed is compared with the deferred premium revenue of that transaction.

For FG insurance contracts, each transaction’s expected loss to be expensed is compared with the deferred premium revenue of that transaction.

Expected loss to be expensed represents past or expected future net claim payments that have not yet been expensed.

Such amounts will be expensed in future periods as deferred premium revenue amortizes into income on financial guaranty insurance policies.

Such amounts will be expensed in future periods as deferred premium revenue amortizes into income on FG insurance policies.

Expected loss to be expensed is the Company’s projection of incurred losses that will be recognized in future periods, excluding accretion of discount.

Therefore, the timing of loss recognition in income does not necessarily coincide with the timing of the actual credit impairment or improvement reported in net economic loss development.

Transactions acquired in business combinations or seasoned portfolios assumed from legacy financial guaranty insurers (particularly BIG transactions) generally have large deferred premium revenue balances.

Transactions acquired in business combinations or seasoned portfolios assumed from legacy FG insurers (particularly BIG transactions) generally have large deferred premium revenue balances.

To the extent that a BIG transaction has a large deferred premium revenue, the difference between economic development and loss and LAE may be significant.

While expected loss to be paid (recovered) is an important measure that provides the present value of amounts that the Company expects to pay or recover in future periods regardless of accounting model, expected loss to be expensed is important because it presents the Company’s projection of net expected losses that will be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in future periods as deferred premium revenue amortizes into income for financial guaranty insurance policies.

The amount of Insurance segment loss expense, which includes losses on policies regardless of form, is a function of the amount of economic loss development discussed above and the deferred premium revenue amortization in a given period, on a contract-by-contract basis.

The following table presents the Insurance segment loss expense (benefit).

On January 21, 2026, the Company entered the annuity reinsurance market through the acquisition of Warwick.

See “— Overview — Key Business Strategies — Annuity Reinsurance.” Assured Life Re reinsures a block of PRT business, with future policy benefit reserves of $475 million, supported by a $594 million portfolio of fixed-maturity, short-term securities, cash, derivatives and other assets, as well as a block of MYGA business with a policyholder account value of $263 million, as part of a funds withheld coinsurance arrangement, for which the Company carries funds withheld receivable of $296 million.

The assets supporting the PRT contract primarily consist of U.S.

corporate and government bonds, including a portfolio of inflation-linked bonds, as well as derivatives which economically hedge the currency, inflation and interest rate mismatches between the PRT liabilities, which are long-dated inflation-linked obligations denominated in pounds sterling, and the investment portfolio which includes certain U.S.

dollar denominated and non-inflation linked securities.

The MYGA policyholder account balances for annuity reinsurance contracts are supported by assets in a funds withheld arrangement with the cedant primarily consisting of mortgage and other asset-backed securities.

The Company also maintains $22 million of fixed-maturity securities for Assured Life Re’s own account.

The primary limitation of non-GAAP financial measures is the potential lack of comparability to financial measures of other companies, whose definitions of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of the Company.

The Company believes its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides information that is necessary for analysts to calculate their estimates of Assured Guaranty’s financial results in their research reports on Assured Guaranty and for investors, analysts and the financial news media to evaluate Assured Guaranty’s financial results.

GAAP requires the Company to consolidate entities where it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary which include FG VIEs, which the Company does not own and where its exposure is limited to its obligation under the financial guaranty insurance contract, and CIVs in which certain subsidiaries invest.

The Company’s management believes that many investors, analysts and financial news reporters use adjusted operating shareholders’ equity and/or ABV, each further adjusted to remove the effect of FG VIE and CIV consolidation, as the principal financial measures for valuing AGL’s current share price or projected share price and also as the basis of their

decision to recommend, buy or sell AGL’s common shares and provides information that is necessary for analysts to calculate their estimates of Assured Guaranty’s financial results in their research reports on Assured Guaranty.

Adjusted Operating Income

The Company’s management believes that adjusted operating income is a useful measure because it clarifies the understanding of the operating results of the Company.

The Company’s management believes that adjusted operating income is a useful measure because it clarifies the understanding of the operating results of the Company and excludes certain items that, under U.S.

GAAP, (i) may vary significantly from period to period due to near-term market conditions or are otherwise not directly comparable or reflective of the underlying performance of the Company’s business, (ii) result in asymmetrical accounting adjustments, and/or (iii) non-economic accounting adjustments.

Adjusted operating income is defined as net income (loss) attributable to AGL, as reported under GAAP, adjusted for the following:

1) Elimination of realized gains (losses) on the Company’s investments that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL, except for gains and losses on securities classified as trading.

1) Elimination of realized gains (losses) on investments that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL, except for gains and losses on securities classified as trading.

The timing of realized gains and losses, which depends largely on market credit cycles, can vary considerably across periods.

The timing of sales is largely subject to the Company’s discretion and influenced by market opportunities, as well as the Company’s tax and capital profile.

2) Elimination of non-credit impairment-related unrealized fair value gains (losses) on credit derivatives that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL, which is the amount of fair value gains (losses) in excess of the present value of the expected estimated economic credit losses.

2) Elimination of non-credit impairment-related fair value gains (losses) on credit derivatives that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL, which is the amount of fair value gains (losses) in excess of the present value of the expected estimated economic credit losses.

Such fair value adjustments are heavily affected by, and in part fluctuate with, changes in market interest rates, the Company’s credit spreads and other market factors and are not expected to result in an economic gain or loss.

3) Elimination of fair value gains (losses) on the Company’s CCS that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL.

3) Elimination of changes in fair value of freestanding derivatives in the Annuity Reinsurance segment that economically hedge market movements in financial instruments and insurance liabilities (but are not in designated hedging relationships in accordance with GAAP).

Certain mark-to-market movements of the hedged market risks are not reported in net income (loss) attributable to AGL, such as changes in the unrealized gains and losses on the available-for-sale investment portfolio due to fluctuations in exchange

rates, and interest rates, and certain components of changes in insurance liabilities as a result of changes in interest rates.

In addition, the timing of the recognition of mark-to-market movements as a result of inflation changes may not match the timing of the corresponding derivative gain and loss recognition.

4) Elimination of the changes in fair value of the embedded derivative in funds withheld that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL related to realized and unrealized gains (losses) of the underlying investment portfolio, whose value may change significantly from period to period due to near term market conditions.

5) Elimination of fair value gains (losses) on CCS that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL.

Such amounts are affected by changes in market interest rates, the Company’s credit spreads, price indications on the Company’s publicly traded debt and other market factors and are not expected to result in an economic gain or loss.

4) Elimination of foreign exchange gains (losses) on remeasurement of net premium receivables and loss and LAE reserves that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL.

Long-dated receivables and loss and LAE reserves represent the present value of future contractual or expected cash flows.

6) Elimination of foreign exchange gains (losses) on remeasurement of assets and liabilities such as net premium receivables and insurance liabilities that are long term in nature that are recognized in net income (loss) attributable to AGL.

Long-dated receivables and insurance reserves represent the present value of future contractual or expected cash flows.

Therefore, the current period’s foreign exchange remeasurement gains (losses) are not necessarily indicative of the total foreign exchange gains (losses) that the Company will ultimately recognize.

5) The tax effects related to the above adjustments, which are determined by applying the statutory tax rate in each of the jurisdictions that generate these adjustments.

PVP or Present Value of New Business Production

The Company’s management believes that PVP is a useful measure because it enables the evaluation of the value of new business production in the Insurance segment by taking into account the value of estimated future installment premiums on all new contracts underwritten in a reporting period as well as additional installment premiums and fees on existing contracts (which may result from supplements or fees or from the issuer not calling an insured obligation the Company projected would be called), regardless of form, which management believes GAAP GWP and changes in fair value of credit derivatives do not adequately measure.

PVP in respect of contracts written in a specified period is defined as gross upfront and installment premiums received and the present value of gross estimated future installment premiums.

Future installment premiums are discounted at the approximate average pre-tax book yield of fixed-maturity securities purchased during the prior calendar year, other than certain fixed-maturity securities such as Loss Mitigation Securities.

The discount rate is recalculated annually and updated as necessary.

discount rate is recalculated annually and updated as necessary.

Under GAAP, financial guaranty installment premiums are discounted at a risk-free rate.

Additionally, under GAAP, management records future installment premiums on financial

guaranty insurance contracts covering non-homogeneous pools of assets based on the contractual term of the transaction, whereas for PVP purposes, management records an estimate of the future installment premiums the Company expects to receive, which may be based upon a shorter period of time than the contractual term of the transaction.

Actual installment premiums may differ from those estimated in the Company’s PVP calculation due to factors including, but not limited to, changes in foreign exchange rates, prepayment speeds, terminations, credit defaults or other factors that affect par outstanding or the ultimate maturity of an obligation.

Annuity Reinsurance

The Company expects liquidity needs related to the annuity reinsurance business to be funded by cash flows generated by interest income, maturities and sales of invested assets and the underlying investments in funds withheld arrangements.

Cash flow needs include operating expenses and benefit payments for PRT, which do not have stated maturity dates and generally terminate upon the death of the annuitant or annuitant’s spouse, as well as MYGA assumed liabilities, which have stated maturities of typically three to five years.

The Company has made assumptions to determine the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the PRT policy benefits including longevity, inflation, expenses, investment returns and other assumptions.

Actual cash flows may differ materially from these estimates if there is significant variation in these assumptions.

Management believes that Assured Life Re has sufficient liquidity to meet the payments required under these obligations and engages in active asset liability monitoring and hedging activities to mitigate the risk associated with mismatches in asset and liability cash flows.

The portfolio of investments supporting the Assured Life Re obligations primarily consists of investment grade fixed-maturity securities including liquid government, corporate and structured credit securities.

The Company may, from time to time, contribute additional capital to Assured Life Re depending on the amount of annuity liabilities it assumes in future reinsurance transactions.

1 unchanged sentence

“Adjusted net investment income” means the sum of (x) AG’s net investment income during the 12-month period ending December 31 of the preceding year (excluding realized capital gains and pro rata distributions of its own securities), and (y) AG’s net investment income (excluding realized capital gains) from the three calendar years prior to the preceding calendar year that has not already been paid out as dividends.

The maximum amount available during 2025 for AG to distribute as ordinary dividends is approximately $287 million.

Such payments would have been payable in the second half of 2025 because AG’s ordinary dividends were concentrated in the second half of 2024 following the August 1, 2024, merger of AGM with and into AG.

However, in order to enable AG to make payments over the course of the year, AG put in place for 2025 a quarterly process with the MIA, pursuant to which AG confirmed that the MIA does not object to AG dividending $71.8 million (i.e., 25%) of the $287 million amount in each calendar quarter of 2025.

Pursuant to this process, AG obtained the MIA’s non-objection to pay, and expects to pay, a $71.8 million

dividend by November 21, 2025 (and previously obtained the MIA’s non-objection to pay, and paid, equivalent dividends on March 6, 2025, May 19, 2025 and August 18, 2025).

See “– Overview – Key Business Strategies – Merger of the U.S.

Insurance Subsidiaries.”

The maximum amount available during 2026 for AG to distribute as ordinary dividends is approximately $245 million of which approximately $72 million is available for distribution in the second quarter of 2026.

• The Company expects the amount of dividends available for distribution by AG Re in 2026 to be approximately $181 million.

Based on applicable law and regulations, in 2025 AG Re has the capacity to declare and pay dividends in an aggregate amount up to 25% of the prior year statutory surplus (i.e., up to $272 million);

provided that such payment cannot exceed AG Re’s unencumbered assets ($225 million as of September 30, 2025) or its statutory surplus ($314 million as of September 30, 2025).

Additionally, in 2025 AG Re can make capital distributions in an aggregate amount up to $129 million without the prior approval of the Bermuda Monetary Authority.

Based on applicable law and regulations, in 2026 AG Re has the capacity to declare and pay dividends in an aggregate amount up to 25% of the prior year total statutory capital and surplus (i.e., up to $292 million);

provided that such payment cannot exceed AG Re’s unencumbered assets ($181 million as of March 31, 2026) or its statutory surplus ($268 million as of March 31, 2026).

Additionally, in 2026 AG Re can make capital distributions in an aggregate amount up to $129 million without the prior approval of the Bermuda Monetary Authority (the Authority).

• Under applicable law and regulations, Assured Life Re may declare and pay dividends during 2026, without prior approval of the Authority, in an aggregate amount equal to up to 25% of its total statutory capital and surplus as of the prior year end (or $41 million).

Any such dividends would also be subject to the limitations that they may not exceed Assured Life Re’s statutory surplus or its unencumbered assets.

As of March 31, 2026, Assured Life Re’s statutory surplus was zero and, accordingly, it had no dividend capacity at that date;

its unencumbered assets were $25 million.

In addition, Assured Life Re may make capital distributions during 2026 of up to $31 million in the aggregate without prior approval of the Authority.

Given Assured Life Re’s focus on capital intensive growth initiatives, it does not expect to declare or pay any dividends or to make any capital distributions during 2026.

Investment Portfolio

The Company’s principal objectives in managing its investment portfolio are to support the highest possible ratings for each operating company, manage investment risk within the context of the underlying portfolio of insurance risk, maintain sufficient liquidity to cover unexpected stress in the insurance portfolio and maximize after-tax net investment income.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $6,278 million of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities, of which $5,529 million were managed by three investment managers who are required to, in accordance with the Company’s investment guidelines, maintain their portion of the Company’s investment portfolio with an overall credit quality rated at a minimum of A+/A1/A+ by S&P/Moody’s/Fitch Ratings Inc.

In addition, $242 million of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities were CLO equity tranches managed by Sound Point.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $6,875 million of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities, of which $6,189 million were managed by four investment managers:

three for the financial guaranty subsidiaries and one for the annuity reinsurance subsidiary.

Cash flows from operating activities were inflows of $220 million in nine months 2025 and inflows of $1 million in nine months 2024.

The nine months 2025 cash flow from operations includes the receipt of $97 million in satisfaction of the judgment the Company was awarded and its recoveries in connection with the resolution of the LBIE litigation.
