In addition, we reported strong results for the third quarter, delivering a 25.0% operating return on average common equity driven by significant contributions from each of our Three Drivers of Profit – underwriting, fee and investment income.

Net negative impact of the 2023 Large Loss Events
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, both before consideration of any related income tax benefit (expense).
The Company’s estimates of net negative impact are based on a review of the Company’s potential exposures, preliminary discussions with certain counterparties and actuarial modeling techniques. The Company’s 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 the losses from these catastrophe events, driven by the magnitude and recent nature of each event, the geographic areas impacted by the events, 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.

•Gross premiums written decreased by $289.3 million, or 36.1%, driven by:
–$230.5 million decrease in the catastrophe class of business, driven by a $236.5 million reduction in gross reinstatement premiums from lower weather-related large losses in the third quarter of 2023.
–$58.8 million decrease in the other property class of business, primarily due to the non-renewal of certain catastrophe exposed quota share programs that did not meet the Company’s return hurdles.
•Net premiums written decreased by $251.6 million, or 36.1%, driven by a $208.3 million reduction in net reinstatement premiums from lower weather-related large losses in the third quarter of 2023.
•Net claims and claim expense ratio - current accident year improved by 120.2 percentage points due to a lower impact from the 2023 Large Loss Events in the third quarter of 2023 than the weather-related large losses in the third quarter of 2022. The 2023 Large Loss Events contributed 14.5 percentage points to the current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio.
•Net claims and claim expense ratio - prior accident years reflects net favorable development, primarily from weather-related large losses across the 2017 to 2022 accident years, driven by better than expected loss emergence.
•Underwriting expense ratio increased 3.5 percentage points, primarily due to the reduction in net reinstatement premiums in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter of 2022.
•Combined Ratio improved by 132.8 percentage points, primarily due to a lower level of current accident year net losses combined with higher prior accident year net favorable development.

•Gross premiums written decreased by $312.9 million, or 22.0%, driven by:
–a $226.7 million decrease in the credit class of business, principally due to significant premium growth in the third quarter of 2022 associated with opportunistic deals written in the mortgage book of business, which do not renew annually and earn over several years.
–the impact of positive adjustments to premium estimates in the third quarter of 2022 for business underwritten in prior years. Additionally, premium growth in the other specialty class of business as compared to the third quarter of 2022 was offset by a decrease in the casualty classes of business, reflecting proactive cycle management.
•Net premiums written decreased 13.2%, consistent with the changes in gross premiums written, and partially offset by an overall reduction in our retrocessional purchases.
•Net claims and claim expense ratio - current accident year increased by 2.2 percentage points compared to the third quarter of 2022. Event losses on catastrophe exposed lines within Specialty classes of business contributed approximately 3.0 percentage points to the current accident year net claims and claim expense ratio in the third quarter of 2023.
•Net claims and claim expense ratio - prior accident years reflects net favorable development driven by reported losses generally coming in lower than expected on attritional net claims and claim expenses, primarily from other specialty lines of business.
•Underwriting expense ratio decreased 0.3 percentage points, which consisted of a 1.3 percentage point decrease in the net acquisition expense ratio, largely offset by a 1.0 percentage point increase in the operating expense ratio.

(1)Performance fees are based on the performance of the individual vehicles or products, and may be negative in a particular period if, for example, large losses occur, which can potentially result in no performance fees or the reversal of previously accrued performance fees.
•Management fee income increased $19.5 million, reflecting increased capital managed at DaVinciRe Holdings Ltd. (“DaVinci”), Vermeer Reinsurance Ltd. (“Vermeer”) and RenaissanceRe Medici Fund Ltd. (“Medici”), as well as the recording of management fees in DaVinci that were previously deferred as a result of the weather-related large losses experienced in prior years, as compared to the deferral of management fees in the third quarter of 2022, as a result of the weather-related large losses.
•Performance fee income increased $19.3 million, driven by improved current year underwriting results, primarily in DaVinci.

•Net investment income increased $171.3 million, primarily driven by a combination of higher average invested assets and higher yielding assets in the fixed maturity and short term portfolios.
•Net realized and unrealized gains on investments increased $413.4 million, principally driven by:
–Net realized and unrealized losses on fixed maturity investments trading of $279.3 million, compared to net realized and unrealized losses of $424.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, primarily driven by interest rate increases in each period, with generally lower increases in the current period.
–Net realized and unrealized gains on investment-related derivatives of $30.6 million, compared to net realized and unrealized losses of $55.6 million in the third quarter of 2022. Current quarter gains were driven by short interest rate future positions benefiting from interest rate increases, while long interest rate and equity futures were negatively impacted by U.S. treasury rate increases and equity market declines in the third quarter of 2022.

–Net realized and unrealized gains on catastrophe bonds of $32.5 million, compared to net realized and unrealized losses of $127.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. These catastrophe bonds are primarily held in Medici, the majority of which is owned by third party investors. Both the current and comparative quarter reflected changes in risk spreads in the wider catastrophe bond market.
•Total investments grew to $26.0 billion at September 30, 2023, from $22.2 billion at December 31, 2022, primarily driven by the approximately $2.1 billion raised in the second quarter of 2023 in accordance with the Company’s financing plan for the Validus Acquisition (as defined below). Weighted average yield to maturity and duration on the Company’s investment portfolio (excluding investments that have no final maturity, yield to maturity or duration) was 6.3% and 2.1 years (December 31, 2022 - 5.7% and 2.5 years, respectively).
Other Items of Note | ||
•Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests of $213.7 million was primarily driven by:
–Strong underwriting results for DaVinci and Vermeer;
–Strong net investment income driven by higher interest rates and higher yielding assets within the investment portfolios of the Company’s joint ventures and managed funds; and
–Net realized and unrealized gains on catastrophe bonds recorded during the quarter in Medici, as discussed above.
•Raised third-party capital of $16.3 million in the third quarter of 2023 in Medici.
•Redemptions of third-party capital of $368.7 million during the third quarter of 2023, including the return of $175.0 million of excess capital from Vermeer, and $122.3 million from Upsilon Diversified Fund, as a result of the release of collateral associated with prior years’ contracts.
•Corporate expenses increased by $6.8 million, primarily driven by expenses incurred in support of integration planning activities associated with the Validus Acquisition.
•Income tax expense of $9.3 million compared to $2.8 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in income tax expense was primarily driven by increased operating income, partially offset by investment losses, in the Company’s taxable jurisdictions compared to the third quarter of 2022.
•On November 1, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of American International Group, Inc., including Validus Holdings, Ltd., Validus Specialty, LLC, and Validus Reinsurance, Ltd. (the acquisitions, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the “Validus Acquisition”).

| Comments on Non-GAAP Financial Measures | ||
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 certain of these financial measures in previous investor communications and the Company’s management believes that such 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 or outside the industry. These measures may not, however, be comparable to similarly titled measures used by companies within or 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 income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders,” which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of (1) net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, excluding other investments - catastrophe bonds, (2) net foreign exchange gains and losses, (3) corporate expenses associated with the acquisition of Validus, (4) the income tax expense or benefit associated with these adjustments and (5) 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 Company’s management believes that “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders,” “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted” and “operating return on average common equity - annualized” are useful to investors because they more accurately measure and predict the Company’s results of operations by removing the variability arising from the listed adjustments. The following table is a reconciliation of: (1) net income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders to “operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders”; (2) net income (loss) available (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.”

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.”
