Kevin J. O’Donnell, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We materially grew our underwriting portfolio while returning significant capital to our shareholders during a quarter that was negatively impacted by Winter Storm Uri and volatile capital markets. Going forward, we anticipate additional opportunities to grow into a broadly improving market by matching desirable risk with efficient capital, both on our wholly owned balance sheets and in our industry-leading RenaissanceRe Capital Partners business. Together with improved yields in our investment portfolio, this diligent execution of our strategy will further contribute to shareholder value creation.”

Net Negative Impact of Winter Storm Uri
Net negative impact on underwriting result includes the sum of (1) net claims and claim expenses incurred, (2) assumed and ceded reinstatement premiums earned and (3) earned and lost profit commissions. Net negative impact on net income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders is the sum of (1) net negative impact on underwriting result and (2) redeemable noncontrolling interest.

Estimates of net negative impact are based on a review of potential exposures, preliminary discussions with certain counterparties and actuarial modeling techniques. Actual net negative impact, both individually and in the aggregate, may vary from these estimates, perhaps materially. Changes in these estimates will be recorded in the period in which they occur.
Meaningful uncertainty remains regarding the estimates and the nature and extent of losses from catastrophe events, driven by the magnitude and recent nature of the event, the geographic areas impacted by the event, relatively limited claims data received to date, the contingent nature of business interruption and other exposures, potential uncertainties relating to reinsurance recoveries, and other factors inherent in loss estimation, among other things.

Three Drivers of Profit: Underwriting, Fee and Investment Income

Combined ratio

Gross premiums written grew 32.5%, primarily driven by:
Growth in the property catastrophe class of business of $194.9 million, or 20.8%, primarily driven by $90.1 million of reinstatement premiums associated with Winter Storm Uri, in addition to rate improvements which contributed to growth with existing clients and new opportunities across underwriting platforms.
Growth in the other property class of business of $201.4 million, or 70.8%, primarily driven by rate improvements which contributed to growth in new and existing business written in the current and prior periods across underwriting platforms.
Ceded premiums written were $608.4 million, an increase of $62.4 million, or 11.4%.
Primarily driven by an increase in gross premiums written which were ceded to third-party investors in RenaissanceRe’s managed vehicles, principally RenaissanceRe Upsilon Fund Ltd., and $10.6 million of ceded reinstatement premiums earned associated with Winter Storm Uri.
As part of the Company’s gross-to-net strategy, the amount of ceded premiums written increased on an absolute basis, however the percentage of ceded premiums written relative to gross premiums written decreased.
Net claims and claim expense ratio increased 48.0 percentage points, primarily driven by higher current accident year losses in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, as a result of Winter Storm Uri.


4


Underwriting expense ratio decreased by 6.2 percentage points primarily driven by:
Lower operating expenses in the current period due to reduced travel, marketing, and office operational expenses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Higher net premiums earned including $79.7 million of net reinstatement premiums earned from Winter Storm Uri.
Underwriting losses were $41.8 million, primarily driven by Winter Storm Uri, which had a $288.5 million net negative impact on the Property segment underwriting result and added 53.9 percentage points to the combined ratio.

Net claims and claim expense ratio decreased 19.6 percentage points, primarily driven by net losses related to the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020, which added 21.1 percentage points to the net loss ratio in that period.
The underwriting expense ratio increased 1.6 percentage points driven by an increase in the net acquisition ratio, principally due to the effects of purchase accounting amortization related to the acquisition of TMR which decreased the ratio in the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by improved operating leverage.

Fee Income: Decrease primarily driven by decline in performance fee income related to Winter Storm Uri

Total fee income decreased by $21.4 million primarily due to lower performance fee income, which was driven by Winter Storm Uri losses. The decrease was partially offset by higher management fees related to an increase in the dollar value of managed capital compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Investment Results: Performance primarily driven by net realized and unrealized losses in fixed maturity and equity trading portfolios

Other Items of Note in the Quarter
Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests was $46.9 million compared to net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $98.1 million. The first quarter of 2021 result was primarily driven by losses in DaVinciRe Holdings Ltd. (“DaVinci”) and Vermeer Reinsurance Ltd. as a result of Winter Storm Uri, as well as investment losses, and a decrease in RenaissanceRe Medici Fund Ltd. (“Medici”) net income.
Corporate expenses decreased $5.6 million to $10.4 million, primarily due to certain integration and compensation related costs from the acquisition of TMR incurred in the first quarter of 2020.
Income tax benefit of $19.5 million, principally driven by unrealized investment losses in the Company’s taxable jurisdictions.
Net foreign exchange losses of $22.8 million, primarily driven by losses attributable to third-party investors in Medici and miscellaneous foreign exchange losses generated by underwriting activities.
Share repurchases of 1.1 million common shares in open market transactions in the first quarter at an aggregate cost of $171.6 million and an average price of $159.47 per common share.
Raised capital totaling over $760 million in the first quarter of 2021 through the Company’s joint ventures and managed funds, Upsilon RFO Re Ltd., DaVinci and Medici, including $131 million from the Company. In addition, the Company entered into secondary transactions with third-party investors resulting in a net purchase of an additional $117 million of DaVinci shares.
Subsequent events that may impact RenaissanceRe
Effective April 1, 2021, the Company raised over $100.0 million of capital through Medici. Following this transaction, the Company’s ownership in Medici was 13.7%.
From April 1, 2021 through April 23, 2021, the Company repurchased 330 thousand common shares in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $55.3 million and an average price of $167.62 per common share.
RenaissanceRe continues to monitor COVID-19 and expect that there may be significant industry losses
RenaissanceRe continues to evaluate industry trends and potential exposure associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and expects historically significant industry losses to emerge over time as the full impact of the pandemic and its effects on the global economy are realized.
Net claims and claim expenses incurred associated with the COVID-19 pandemic were not significant in the first quarter of 2021.
RenaissanceRe continues to actively monitor information received from or reported by clients, brokers, industry actuaries, regulators, courts, and others, and to assess that information in the context of its own portfolio.
Loss estimates represent RenaissanceRe’s best estimate based on currently available information, and actual losses may vary materially from these estimates.

Comments on Regulation G
In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this Press Release, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G. The Company has provided these financial measures in previous investor communications and the Company’s management believes that these measures are important to investors and other interested persons, and that investors and such other persons benefit from having a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and for comparison with other companies within the industry. These measures may not, however, be comparable to similarly titled measures used by companies outside of the insurance industry. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these non-GAAP measures in assessing the Company’s overall financial performance.
Operating Income (Loss) Available (Attributable) to RenaissanceRe Common Shareholders and Operating Return on Average Common Equity - Annualized
The Company uses “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” as a measure to evaluate the underlying fundamentals of its operations and believes it to be a useful measure of its corporate performance. “Operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” as used herein differs from “net loss attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders,” which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, excluding other investments - catastrophe bonds, net foreign exchange gains and losses, corporate expenses associated with the acquisition of TMR and the subsequent sale of RenaissanceRe (UK) Limited (“RenaissanceRe UK”), the income tax expense or benefit associated with these adjustments and the portion of these adjustments attributable to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests." The Company’s management believes that “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” is useful to investors because it more accurately measures and predicts the Company’s results of operations by removing the variability arising from: fluctuations in the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio, equity investments trading, other investments (excluding catastrophe bonds) and investments-related derivatives; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; corporate expenses associated with the acquisition of TMR and the subsequent sale of RenaissanceRe UK; the associated income tax expense or benefit of these adjustments; and the portion of these adjustments attributable to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company also uses “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders” to calculate “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted” and “operating return on average common equity - annualized.” The following table is a reconciliation of: (1) net loss attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders to “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders”; (2) net loss attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted to “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted”; and (3) return on average common equity - annualized to “operating return on average common equity - annualized.” Comparative information for all prior periods has been updated to conform to the current methodology and presentation.

Tangible Book Value Per Common Share and Tangible Book Value Per Common Share Plus Accumulated Dividends
The Company has included in this Press Release “tangible book value per common share” and “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends.” “Tangible book value per common share” is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share. “Tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends” is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share, plus accumulated dividends. The Company’s management believes “tangible book value per common share” and “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends” are useful to investors because they provide a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding the impact of goodwill and intangible assets. The following table is a reconciliation of book value per common share to “tangible book value per common share” and “tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends.”
