OLD REPUBLIC INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
($ in Millions, Except Share Data)

1.Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation:

Accounting Principles - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with these notes and those included in the Company's 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K incorporated herein by reference.

Pertinent accounting and disclosure pronouncements issued from time to time by the FASB are adopted by the Company as they become effective. Recent pronouncements are discussed below.

Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted the FASB’s accounting guidance on current expected credit loss ("CECL") which requires the immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of certain financial assets measured at amortized cost, primarily including the Company’s reinsurance recoverables, and its accounts and notes receivable. CECL replaced the incurred loss impairment model that recognized losses when a probability threshold was met with a requirement to recognize lifetime expected credit losses immediately when a financial asset is originated or purchased and at subsequent measurement dates. The expected credit losses, and subsequent adjustment to such losses, are recorded through an allowance account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, with the net carrying value of the asset presented on the consolidated balance sheet.

The guidance relating to financial assets measured at amortized cost was adopted on a modified retrospective basis, resulting in a net of tax adjustment to January 1, 2020 retained earnings of $2.3. The Company’s January 1, 2020 credit loss allowance of $30.1 was comprised of $14.5 related to reinsurance recoverables, $15.5 related to accounts and notes receivable, and an immaterial amount related to held to maturity securities. The September 30, 2021 allowance included $16.0 related to reinsurance recoverables and $21.5 related to accounts and notes receivable. No significant changes were made to the allowance during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The guidance also modified the impairment model for available for sale fixed maturity securities by requiring the recognition of credit losses through an allowance account, as opposed to a charge that cannot be revised should the underlying security recover. Under the guidance, the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position will no longer impact the determination as to whether a credit loss exists. The revised guidance for available for sale fixed maturity securities was adopted on a prospective basis and the related disclosures summarizing this standard’s impact on the Company’s investment portfolio are included in Note 3.

The financial accounting and reporting process relies on estimates and on the exercise of judgment. In the opinion of management all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods' results and financial position have been recorded. Pertinent accounting and disclosure pronouncements issued from time to time by the FASB are adopted by the Company as they become effective.

Statement Presentation - Amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements and applicable notes are stated (except as otherwise indicated and as to share data) in millions, which amounts may not add to totals shown due to truncation.

Reclassifications - Reclassifications are made in prior periods' financial statements whenever appropriate to conform to the most current presentation.

Immaterial AdjustmentInvestments - The Company recorded immaterial adjustmentsclassifies its fixed income securities, also referred to present revenues gross of the applicable commission expenses in the September 30, 2020 consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income by: increasing net premiums earned by $126.2 and $327.6 for the quarter and nine months, respectively, decreasing title, escrow and other fees by $58.3 and $140.7 for the quarter and nine months, respectively, and increasing underwriting, acquisition, and other expenses by $67.9 and $186.8 for the quarter and nine months, respectively. These immaterial adjustments were made to conform all prior periods to the current presentation and had no impact on net income (loss), comprehensive income (loss) or shareholders' equity.

2. Common Share Data:

Earnings Per Share - Consolidated basic earnings per share excludes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares actually outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are similarly calculated with the inclusion of dilutive common stock equivalents. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) and the number of shares used in basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

(a) In calculating earnings per share, pertinent accounting rules require that common shares owned by the Company's Employee Savings and Stock Ownership Plan that are not yet allocated to participants in the plan be excluded from the calculation. Such shares are issued and outstanding, and have the same voting and other rights applicable to all common shares.

3. Investments:

The Company classifies itsas fixed maturity securities, as those it either (1) has the intent and ability to hold until maturity, (2) has available for sale or (3) has the intention of trading. The Company's entire fixed maturityincome portfolio is classified as available for sale. As of June 30, 2020 the Company changed its intent to hold its tax exempt municipal bond portfolio until maturity and consequently, reclassified these securities from their previous held to maturity designation to available for sale. As a result, net of tax unrealized gains of $48.5 were recognized in other comprehensive income as of that date.

Fixed maturityincome securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value with changes in such values, net of deferred income taxes, reflected directly in shareholders' equity. Equity securities are reported at fair value with changes in such values reflected as unrealized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of income. Fair values are based on quoted market prices or estimates using values obtained from recognized independent pricing services.

The status and fair value changes of each of the fixed income investments are reviewed at least once per quarter to assess whether a decline in fair value of an investment below its cost basis is the result of a credit loss. Credit losses are recorded through an allowance with the corresponding charge to realized investment gains (losses). If the Company intends to sell or is more likely than not required to sell a security, the asset is written down to fair value directly through realized investment gains (losses).

Investment income is reported net of allocated expenses and includes appropriate adjustments for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on fixed income securities acquired at other than par value. Dividends on equity securities are credited to income on the ex-dividend date. At September 30, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have significant amounts of non-income producing securities.

Investment gains and losses, which result from sales or write downs of securities, are reflected as revenues in the income statement and are determined on the basis of amortized cost at date of sale for fixed income securities, and cost in regard to equity securities; such bases apply to the specific securities sold.

Revenue Recognition- Pursuant to GAAP applicable to the insurance industry, revenues are recognized as follows:

Substantially all general insurance premiums pertain to annual policies and are reflected in income on a pro-rata basis in association with the related loss and loss adjustment expenses.

Title premium and fee revenues stemming from the Company's direct operations (which include branch offices of its title insurers and wholly owned agency subsidiaries) represent approximately 20% of 2022 consolidated title business revenues. Such premiums are generally recognized as income at the escrow closing date which approximates the policy effective date. Fee income related to escrow and other closing services is recognized when the related services have been performed and completed. The statusremaining title premium and fair value changes of eachfee revenues are produced by independent title agents. Rather than making estimates that could be subject to significant variance from actual premium and fee production, the Company recognizes revenues from those sources upon receipt. Such receipts can reflect a three to four month lag relative to the effective date of the fixed maturity investmentsunderlying title policy, and are reviewed at least once per quarter duringoffset concurrently by production expenses and loss reserve provisions.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses - The establishment of loss reserves by the yearCompany's insurance subsidiaries is a reasonably complex and dynamic process influenced by a large variety of factors. These factors principally include past experience applicable to assess whetherthe anticipated costs of various types of claims, continually evolving and changing legal theories emanating from the judicial system, recurring accounting, statistical, and actuarial studies, the professional experience and expertise of the Company's claim departments' personnel or attorneys and independent claim adjusters, ongoing changes in claim frequency or severity patterns such as those caused by natural disasters, illnesses, accidents, work-related injuries, and changes in general and industry-specific economic conditions. Consequently, the reserves established are a decline in fair valuereflection of an investment below its cost basis is the resultopinions of a credit loss. Factors consideredlarge number of persons, of the application and interpretation of historical precedent and trends, of expectations as to future developments, and of management's judgment in making this assessment include a security's market price history,interpreting all such factors. At any point in time, the Company is exposed to the possibility of higher or lower than anticipated loss costs due to all of these factors, and to the evolution, interpretation, and

expansion of tort law, as well as the issuer's operating results, financial conditioneffects of unexpected jury verdicts.

All reserves are therefore based on estimates which are periodically reviewed and liquidity,evaluated in the light of emerging loss experience and changing circumstances. The resulting changes in estimates are recorded in operations of the periods during which they are made. Return and additional premiums and policyholders' dividends, all of which tend to be affected by development of losses in future years, may offset, in whole or in part, favorable or unfavorable loss developments for certain coverages such as workers' compensation, portions of which are written under loss sensitive programs that provide for such adjustments. Management believes that its abilityoverall reserving practices have been consistently applied over many years, and that its aggregate net reserves have generally resulted in reasonable approximations of the ultimate net costs of losses incurred. However, no representation is made nor is any guaranty given that ultimate net losses and related costs will not develop in future years to access capital markets andbe significantly greater or lower than currently established reserve estimates.

The Company's accounting policy regarding the establishment of loss reserve estimates is described in Note 1 to make scheduled principal or interest payments, credit rating trends, most current auditedthe consolidated financial statements industryincluded in Old Republic's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain loss related financial statement captions and securities markets conditions and analyst expectations. Sudden fair value declines caused by such adverse developmentsdisclosures reflect minor wording changes when compared to the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Employee Benefit Plans - The Company has a closed pension plan (the "Plan") for certain employees under which benefits were frozen as newly emerged or imminent bankruptcy filings, issuer default on significant obligations, or reports of financial accounting developments that bring into question the validityDecember 31, 2013. The underfunded status of the issuer's previously reported earnings or financial condition, arePlan is recognized as realized lossesa net pension liability with offsetting entries reflected as soon as credible publicly available information emerges to confirm such developments. a component of shareholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes.

The Company recorded no allowance for credit losses asalso provides long-term incentive awards to certain employees. In March 2022, the Compensation Committee of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020.the Company's Board of Directors approved the grant of stock-based awards to certain employees under the 2022 Incentive Compensation Plan which received shareholder approval in May 2022.

In the above tables the unrealized losses on fixed maturityincome securities are primarily deemed to reflect changes in the interest rate environment. As part of its assessment of credit losses, the Company considers its intent and abilitywhether it intends to continuesell or is more likely than not required to hold thesell securities, until cost recovery, principally in consideration of its asset and liability maturity matching objectives. Net realized investment gains (losses) in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 included $120.9 and $123.5, respectively, of losses on fixed income securities for which management intends to dispose of, principally due to tax planning considerations. No such losses were recognized during the same periods of 2021. The Company recorded no allowance for credit losses as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021.

During the third quarter and first nine months of 20212022 and 2020,2021, the Company recognized pretax unrealized investment gains (losses) of $(350.8) and $(641.8), respectively for 2022, and $(199.3) and $288.1, respectively for 2021, and $79.2 and $(529.4), respectively for 2020, emanating from changes in the fair value of equity securities in the consolidated statements of income. Changes in the fair value of equity securities still held at September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $(215.8) and 2020 were$(378.6) for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively, and $(178.3) and $245.9 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, and $78.9 and $(520.6) for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements - Fair value is defined as the estimated price that is likely to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price) at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is established that prioritizes the sources ("inputs") used to measure fair value into three broad levels: Level 1 inputs are based on quoted market prices in active markets; Level 2 observable inputs are based on corroboration with available market data; and Level 3 unobservable inputs are based on uncorroborated market data or a reporting entity's own assumptions. Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and general classification used for financial instruments measured at fair value.

The Company uses quoted values and other data provided by a nationally recognized independent pricing source as inputs into its quarterly process for determining fair values of fixed maturityincome and equity securities. To validate the techniques or models used by pricing sources, the Company's review process includes, but is not limited to: (i) initial and ongoing evaluation of methodologies used by outside parties to calculate fair value; and (ii) comparisons with other sources including the fair value estimates based on current market quotations, and with independent fair value estimates provided by the independent investment custodian. The independent pricing source obtains market quotations and actual transaction prices for securities that have quoted prices in active markets and uses their own proprietary method for determining the fair value of securities that are not actively traded. In general, these methods involve the use of "matrix pricing" in which the independent pricing source uses observable market inputs including,
10


but not limited to, investment yields, credit risks and spreads, benchmarking of like securities, broker-dealer quotes, reported trades and sector groupings to determine a reasonable fair value.

Level 1 securities include U.S. and Canadian Treasury notes, publicly traded common stocks, mutual funds, and short-term investments in highly liquid money market instruments. Level 2 securities generally include corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and certain U.S. and Canadian government agency securities. Securities classified within Level 3 include non-publicly traded bonds and equity securities. There were no significant changes in the fair value of Level 3 assets as of September 30, 20212022 and December 31, 2020.2021.

The following tables show a summary of the fair value of financial assets segregated among the various input levels described above:

Investment income is reported net of allocated expenses and includes appropriate adjustments for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on fixed maturity securities acquired at other than par value. Dividends on equity securities are credited to income on the ex-dividend date.

Investment gains and losses, which result from sales or write downs of securities, are reflected as revenues in the income statement and are determined on the basis of amortized cost at date of sale for fixed maturity securities, and cost in regard to equity securities; such bases apply to the specific securities sold. Unrealized gains and (losses) from changes in fair value of equity securities are recorded as investment gains (losses) in the income statement. Unrealized investment gains (losses) on fixed maturity securities, net of any deferred income taxes, are recorded directly as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity. At September 30, 2021, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have significant amounts of non-income producing fixed maturity or equity securities.

The following table reflects the composition of net investment income, net realized gains or losses, and the net change in unrealized investment gains or losses for each of the periods shown.

4. Losses, Claims and Settlement Expenses:

The establishment of claim reserves by the Company's insurance subsidiaries is a reasonably complex and dynamic process influenced by a large variety of factors. These factors principally include past experience applicable to the anticipated costs of various types of claims, continually evolving and changing legal theories emanating from the judicial system, recurring accounting, statistical, and actuarial studies, the professional experience and expertise of the Company's claim departments' personnel or attorneys and independent claim adjusters, ongoing changes in claim frequency or severity patterns such as those caused by natural disasters, illnesses, accidents, work-related injuries, and changes in general and industry-specific economic conditions. Consequently, the reserves established are a reflection of the opinions of a large number of persons, of the application and interpretation of historical precedent and trends, of expectations as to future developments, and of management's judgment in interpreting all such factors. At any point in time, the Company is exposed to the incurrence of possibly higher or lower than anticipated claim costs due to all of these factors, and to the evolution, interpretation, and expansion of tort law, as well as the effects of unexpected jury verdicts.

All reserves are therefore based on estimates which are periodically reviewed and evaluated in the light of emerging claim experience and changing circumstances. The resulting changes in estimates are recorded in operations of the periods during which they are made. Return and additional premiums and policyholders' dividends, all of which tend to be affected by development of claims in future years, may offset, in whole or in part, favorable or unfavorable claim developments for certain coverages such as workers' compensation, portions of which are written under loss sensitive programs that provide for such adjustments. The Company believes that its overall reserving practices have been consistently applied over many years, and that its aggregate net reserves have generally resulted in reasonable approximations of the ultimate net costs of claims incurred. However, no representation is made nor is any guaranty given that ultimate net claim and related costs will not develop in future years to be greater or lower than currently established reserve estimates.

The Company’s accounting policy regarding the establishment of claim reserve estimates is described in Note 1(h) to the consolidated financial statements included in Old Republic’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following table shows an analysis of changes in aggregate reserves for the Company's losses, claims and settlement expenses for each of the periods shown.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, all operating segments experienced favorable loss reserve development. General Insurance favorable development came predominantly from the commercial auto and workers' compensation lines of coverage. This was partially offset by unfavorable development in the financial indemnity (which includes public company D&O) line of coverage, stemming from large security class action claims activity occurring from accident years 2018 and 2019, and to a lesser extent, general liability coverages. Favorable development

Summary of changesexperienced from Title Insurance occurred largely within the 2017-2019 policy years, while RFIG Run-off was driven by positive trends in aggregate reserves for claims and related costs:

5. Employee Benefit Plans:

The Company had an active pension plan (the "Plan") covering a portion of its work force until December 31, 2013. The Plan is a defined benefit plan pursuant to which pension payments are based primarily on years of service and employee compensation near retirement. The Plan was closed to new participants and benefits were frozen as of December 31, 2013. As a result, eligible employees retained all of the vested rights as of the effective date of the freeze. While additional benefits no longer accrue, the Company's cumulative obligation continues to be subject to
14


further adjustment due to changes in actuarial assumptions such as expected mortality and changes in interest rates. Net periodic pension costs for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were not material to Old Republic's consolidated statements of income.

6. Information About Segments of Business:

Old Republic is engaged in the single business of insurance underwriting and related services. The Company conducts its operations through a number of regulated insurance company subsidiaries organized into 3 major segments, namely its General Insurance (property and liability insurance), Title Insurance, and the Republic Financial Indemnity Group ("RFIG") Run-off Business. The results of a small life and accident insurance business are included with those of the parent holding company and its internal corporate services subsidiaries. Each of the Company's segments underwrites and services only those insurance coverages which may be written by it pursuant to state insurance regulations and corporate charter provisions. Segment results exclude investment gains or losses as these are aggregated in the consolidated totals. The contributions of Old Republic's insurance industry segments to consolidated totals are shown in the following table.

9. Income Taxes:Taxes

Tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by the Company are recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. To the best of management's knowledge, there are no tax uncertainties that are expected to result in significant increases or decreases to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve month period. The Company views its income tax exposures as primarily consisting of timing differences whereby the ultimate deductibility of a taxable amount is highly certain but the timing of its deductibility is uncertain. Such differences relate principally to the timing of deductions for loss and premium reserves. As in prior examinations, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") could assert that claim reserve deductions were overstated thereby reducing the Company's statutory taxable income in any particular year. The Company believes that it establishes its reserves fairly and consistently at each balance sheet date, and that it would succeed in defending its tax position in these regards. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, the possible accelerated payment of tax to the IRS would not necessarily affect the annual effective tax rate. The Company classifies interest and penalties as income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income. The Company is not currently under audit by the IRS and 20182019 and subsequent tax years remain open.

Note 5 - Net Income Per Share

Consolidated basic earnings per share excludes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares actually outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are similarly calculated with the inclusion of dilutive common stock equivalents. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) and the number of shares used in basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

(a) In calculating earnings per share, pertinent accounting standards require that common shares owned by the Company's Employee Savings and Stock Ownership Plan that are not yet allocated to participants in the plan be excluded from the calculation. Such shares are issued and outstanding, and have the same voting and other rights applicable to all common shares.

Note 6 - Credit Losses

Credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, primarily the Company's reinsurance recoverables and accounts and notes receivable, are recognized based on estimated losses expected to occur over the life of the asset. The expected credit losses, and subsequent adjustment to such losses, are recorded through an allowance account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, with the net carrying value of the asset presented on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company's credit allowance was comprised of $16.0 related to reinsurance recoverables as of both September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and $27.7 and $24.1 related to accounts and notes receivable, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company's evaluation of credit allowances on available for sale fixed income securities is discussed further in Note 2. The Company is not exposed to material concentrations of credit risks as to any one issuer of investment securities.

Note 8 - Common Share Repurchases

On August 18, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a $450.0 share repurchase program. During the quarter, the Company repurchased $104.8 of common shares (4.8 million shares at an average price of $21.49 per share). Following the close of the quarter and through November 3, the Company repurchased 6.0 million additional shares for $136.8 (average price of $22.48), leaving $208.2 remaining under the current repurchase authorization.

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Legal Proceedings - Legal proceedings against the Company and its subsidiaries routinely arise in the normal course of business and usually pertain to claim matters related to insurance policies and contracts issued by its insurance subsidiaries. At September 30, 2022, the Company had no material non-claim litigation exposures in its consolidated business.

Note 10 - Information About Segments of Business

The Company is engaged in the single business of insurance underwriting and related services. It conducts its operations through a number of regulated insurance company subsidiaries organized into three major segments: General Insurance (property and liability insurance), Title Insurance and the Republic Financial Indemnity Group ("RFIG") Run-off. The results of a small life and accident insurance business are included within the Corporate & Other caption of this report. Old Republic's business is managed for the long run. In this context management's key objectives are to achieve highly profitable operating results over the long term, and to ensure balance sheet strength for the primary needs of the insurance subsidiaries' underwriting and related services business. In this view, the evaluation of periodic and long-term results excludes consideration of all investment gains (losses). Under GAAP, however, net income, inclusive of investment gains (losses), is the measure of total profitability. In management's opinion, the focus on income excluding investment gains (losses), also described herein as segment pretax operating income (loss), provides a better way to analyze, evaluate, and establish accountability for the results of the insurance operations. The inclusion of realized investment gains (losses) in net income can mask trends in operating results, because such realizations are often highly discretionary. Similarly, the inclusion of unrealized investment gains (losses) in equity securities can further distort such operating results with significant period-to-period fluctuations. The contributions of Old Republic's insurance industry segments to consolidated totals are shown in the following table.

OLD REPUBLIC INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Ended September 30, 20212022 and 20202021
($ in Millions, Except Share Data)
OVERVIEW

This management analysis of financial position and results of operations pertains to the consolidated accounts of Old Republic International Corporation ("Old Republic", "ORI", or "the Company"). The Company conducts its operations principally through a number of regulated insurance company subsidiaries organized into three major regulatory segments, namely, itssegments: General Insurance (property and liability)liability insurance), Title Insurance and the RFIG Run-off Business.Republic Financial Indemnity Group ("RFIG") Run-off. A small life and accident insurance business, accounting for .2%.1% of consolidated operating revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 20212022 and .5% of consolidated assets as of that date, is included within the corporate and otherCorporate & Other caption of this report.

The consolidated accounts are presented in conformity with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). As a publicly held company, Old Republic utilizes GAAP largely to comply with the financial reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). From time to time the FASB and the SEC issue various releases, many of which require additional financial statement disclosures and provide related application guidance. Recent guidance issued by the FASB is summarized further in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.Statements where applicable.

As a state regulated financial institution vested with the public interest, however, business of the Company's insurance subsidiaries is managed pursuant to the laws, regulations, and accounting practices of the various states in the U.S. and those of a small number of other jurisdictions outside the U.S. in which they operate. In comparison with GAAP, the statutory accounting practices generally reflect greater conservatism and comparability among insurers, and are intended to address the primary financial security interests of policyholders and their beneficiaries. Additionally, these practices also affect a significant number of important factors such as product pricing, risk bearing capacity and capital adequacy, the determination of Federal income taxes payable currently among ORI's tax-consolidated entities, and the upstreaming of dividends by insurance subsidiaries to the parent holding company. The major differences between these statutory financial accounting practices and GAAP are summarized in Note 1(a)1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Old Republic's 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The insurance business is distinguished from most others in that the prices (premiums) charged for various insurancemost products are set without certainty ofknowing what the ultimate benefit and claimloss costs that will emerge, oftenbe. We also can't know exactly when claims will be paid, which may be many years after issuance and expiration of a policy.policy was issued or expired. This basic fact casts Old Republic as a risk-taking enterprise managed for the long run. ManagementOld Republic therefore conducts the business with a primary focus on achieving favorable underwriting results over cycles, and on the maintenance ofmaintaining a sound financial soundness incondition to support of the insuranceour subsidiaries' long-term obligations to policyholders and their beneficiaries. To achieve these objectives, adherence to insurance risk management principles is stressed, and asset diversification and quality are emphasized. In addition, management engages in an ongoing assessment of operating risks, such as cybersecurity risks, that could adversely affect the Company's business and reputation.

In addition to income arising from Old Republic's basic underwriting and related services functions, significant investment income is earned from invested funds generated by those functions and from capital resources. Investment management aims for stability of income from interest and dividends, protection of capital, and for sufficiency of liquidity to meet insurance underwriting and other obligations as they become payable in the future. Securities trading and the realization of capital gains are not primary objectives. The investment philosophy is therefore best characterized as emphasizing value, credit quality, and relatively long-term holding periods. The Company's ability to hold both fixed maturityincome and equity securities for long periods of time is in turn enabled by the scheduling of maturities in contemplation of an appropriate matching of assets and liabilities, and by investments in large capitalization, highly liquid equity securities.

In light of the above factors, the Company's affairs areCompany is managed for the long run and without significantwith little regard to the arbitrary strictures offor quarterly or even annual reporting periods that American industry must observe. In Old Republic's view, such short reportingperiods. These time frames do not comport well with the long-term nature of much of its business.are too short. Management therefore believes that the Company's operating results and financial condition canare best be evaluated by observinglooking at underwriting and overall operating performance trends over succeeding five-10-year intervals. These likely include one or preferably ten-year intervals. A ten-year period in particular can likely encompass at least onetwo economic and/or underwriting cycle and thereby provide an appropriatecycles. This provides enough time frame for such cyclethese cycles to run itstheir course, for underwriting and for premium rate changes to appear in financial results, and for reserved claimloss costs to be quantified and emerge in financial results with greater finality and effect.certainty.

As the economy continues to emerge from the pandemic, premium and fee revenues in General Insurance could continue growing. As low interest rates and a favorable real estate market continue, Title Insurance premium and fee revenues could remain strong, although may be lower than recent periods.

2019


Old Republic's business is managed for the long run. In this context management's key objectives are to achieve highly profitable operating results over the long term, and to ensure balance sheet strength for the primary needs of the insurance subsidiaries' underwriting and related services business. In this view, the evaluation of periodic and long-term results excludes consideration of all investment gains and (losses). Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), however, net income, (loss), which includes all specifically defined realized and unrealizedinclusive of investment gains and (losses), is the measure of total profitability.

In management's opinion, the focus on income (loss) excluding all investment gains and losses(losses), also described herein as segment pretax operating income (loss), provides a better way to realistically analyze, evaluate, and establish accountability for the results and benefits that arise from the basic operations of the business.insurance operations. The inclusion of realized investment gains and (losses) in net income (loss) can mask the reality and trends in the fundamental operating results, of the insurance business. That is because their realization is, moresuch realizations are often than not, highly discretionary. It is usually affected by the timing of individual securities sales, tax-planning considerations, and modifications of investment management judgments about the direction of securities markets or the prospects of individual investees or industry sectors. Moreover,Similarly, the inclusion of unrealized investment gains and (losses) in equity securities can further distort such operating results and trends therein and thus lead to even greaterwith significant period-to-period fluctuations in reported net income (loss). The impact of the continuous volatility in stock market valuations is most evident in its net of tax effect on net income (loss) for the periods reported upon.fluctuations.

General Insurance net premiums earned increased 4.7%7.1% and 3.8%7.3% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Strong premiumfirst nine months, respectively, driven by growth in commercial auto and workers' compensation lines of coverage. Premium rate increases for most lines of coverage, other than workers' compensation,high renewal retention ratios, and new business production continued. Rising premiums in commercial auto, financial indemnity and property coverages more than offset the decline in workers’ compensation and general liability premiums.all contributed. Net investment income decreasedincreased in both 2021 periodsthe quarter, reflecting a growing invested assetgrowth in the investment base more than offset by lowerand slightly higher investment yields.yields earned.

The reported loss ratio for General Insurance reported claim ratio improved in both 2021 periods, influenced bythe quarter, inclusive of favorable reserve development from prior periods and a lower current period claim provision, reflectingloss costs. Favorable development of 4.7% in the quarter came predominantly from the commercial auto and workers' compensation lines of coverage, partially offset by unfavorable development in the financial indemnity line of coverage. The current period loss costs reflect several years of premium rate increases, and underwriting actions. The year-to-date expense ratio remained relatively consistent with the prior year, generally reflecting variability of sales and general expenses withinactions, a shift in the line of coverage mix, while theand a relatively nominal amount from Hurricane Ian.

The third quarter 2021and first nine month expense ratio was somewhatratios were elevated duecompared to fluctuating levelsthe same periods last year, generally reflecting the shift in line of operatingcoverage mix. Investments in new products and geographies in recent years have diversified the General Insurance business, resulting in shifts in the lines of coverage mix toward lines with higher expense accruals.ratios and lower current period loss ratios.

Together, these factors produced significantlyhighly profitable combined ratios and greater pretax operating income for the periods reported.

Quarterly and annual claimloss ratios and trends may not be particularly meaningful indicatorsindicative of future outcomes for a liability-oriented mix of business with relatively long claim payment patterns. Assuming the currentWe target combined ratios between 90% and 95%, and based on our historical line of coverage mix, management's targets are claima loss ratio averagesaverage in the high 60% to low 70% range, and an expense ratio averagesaverage of 25% or below, and a. These components of the combined ratio between 90%will continue to reflect the line of coverage mix.

Title Insurance net premiums and 95%.fees earned declined by 15.2% and 6.9% for the third quarter and first nine months, respectively. Both directly produced and agency produced revenues declined during the quarter, and it is expected that such revenues will continue to be lower in the fourth quarter of this year when compared to the same period last year. The main driver of these trends is increasing mortgage interest rates which continue to drive a steep reduction in refinance activity and to a lesser extent, purchase activity. An uptick in commercial transaction activity resulted in strong commercial premium growth during the quarter and first nine month periods. Net investment income increased in both 2022 periods, reflecting growth in the invested asset base and slightly higher investment yields earned in the quarter.

Title Insurance's loss ratios were relatively consistent for the quarter and first nine months. The third quarter and first nine month's expense ratios were elevated compared to the same periods last year, generally reflecting the combination of lower directly produced revenues that carry higher fixed expenses, and to a lesser extent, a greater proportion of agency produced revenues that have a higher overall expense ratio.

Together, these factors produced profitable combined ratios albeit lower pretax operating income for the periods reported.

(a) Certain reclassification adjustments were made to increase net premiums and fees earned with a corresponding increase to sales and general expenses of $67.9 and $186.8 in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020. These adjustments were made to conform the prior period to the current presentation to reflect such revenues gross of applicable commission expense and had no impact on segmented pretax operating income (loss).

Title Insurance net premiums and fees earned increased by 33.3% in the third quarter and by nearly 43% for the year-to-date period, with strong results generated from both agency and direct production channels. This performance was driven by a continued low interest rate environment and a robust real estate market, with increases in purchase transactions partially offset by a decline in refinance levels. Net investment income increased in both 2021 periods reflecting a growing invested asset base, somewhat offset by lower investment yields.

The Title Insurance reported claim ratio was higher for the quarter and year-to-date periods, influenced somewhat by less favorable reserve development from prior periods. The expense ratio improved over the prior year’s third quarter and first nine months from greater leverage of the expense structure on significantly higher premium and fee volume.

Together, these factors produced significantly greater pretax operating income for the periods reported.

Pretax operating results of RFIG Run-off reflect the continuing drop in net earned premiums in line with the declining risk in force, and significantly lower claimloss costs in comparisoncompared to 2020the 2021 periods. Net investment income decreased in both 20212022 periods, fromreflecting a declining invested asset base, driven by the payment of extraordinary dividends of $35.0 and lower investment yields. Claim$105.0 to the parent company during the third quarter and first nine months, respectively. Loss costs reflect fewer newly reported delinquencies along with improving trends in cure rates and claim severity influenced by the ongoing economic recovery and continued strength in the real estate market.rates.

Together, these factors produced significantly greater pretax operating income for the periods reported.

This segment includes the combination of a small life and accident insurance business and the net costs associated with the parent holding company and itsseveral internal corporate services subsidiaries. The segment tends to produce highly variable results stemming from volatility inherent from the lack of scale. InterestFor the quarter, net investment income declined partially attributable to the return of capital to shareholders. For the first nine months, interest expense increased relateddue to the issuance of $650 million of debt late in the second quarter. This increase was largelyquarter of 2021, partially offset by net investment income from thea higher level of investments and higher investment of the proceeds.yields earned.

Old Republic's invested assets portfolio is directed in consideration of enterprise-wide risk management objectives. Most importantly, these are intended to ensure solid funding of the insurance subsidiaries' long-term claim payment obligations to customers, policyholders and their beneficiaries, as well as the long-term stability of the subsidiaries’ capital accounts.base. For these reasons, the investment portfolio contains no significant insurance risk-correlateddoes not contain high risk or illiquid asset exposuresclasses and has zero or extremely limited exposure to, real estate, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations (CDO's), derivatives,credit default and interest rate swaps, hybrid securities, asset-backed securities (ABS), guaranteed investment contracts (GIC), structured investment vehicles (SIV), auction rate variable short-term securities, limited partnerships, derivatives, hedge funds or illiquid private equity and hedge fund investments. Moreover, the Company does not engage in hedging or securities lending transactions, nor does it invest in securities whose values are predicated on non-regulated financial instruments exhibiting amorphous or unfunded counter-party risk attributes.

As of September 30, 2021,2022, the consolidated investment portfolio reflected an allocation of approximately 71%80% to fixed-maturityfixed income (bonds and notes) and short-term investments, and 29%20% to equity securities (common stock). During the quarter, we continued to reduce our equity holdings and reinvest the proceeds in fixed income securities. The fixed-maturityfixed income portfolio continues to be the anchor for the insurance underwriting subsidiaries' obligations. The maturities of our fixed income assets are stratified and conservatively matched to the expected timing of paying thoseliabilities for claim payment obligations in the future.to policyholders and their beneficiaries. The quality of the investment portfolio remains at high levels. The Company's third quarter net income includes investment impairment charges of $120.9, reflecting management's intent to dispose of certain fixed income securities currently in an unrealized loss position, driven by tax planning considerations.

In recent years, aA significant portion of our investable funds have been directed toward high-quality common stocks of U.S. companies (currently limited to fewer than 100approximately 75 issues). We favor those with long-term records of reasonable earnings growth and steadily increasing dividends. Pursuant to our enterprise risk management guidelines and controls, we perform regular stress tests of the equities portfolio to gain reasonable assurance that periodic downdrafts in market prices would not seriously undermine our financial strength and the long-term continuity and prospects of our insurance underwriting business.

Consolidated net premiums and fees earned were down 5.5% for the quarter, with General Insurance net earned premiums growing 7.1%, offset by a 15.2% decline in Title Insurance net premiums and fees as a result of lower revenues in both direct and agency operations. For the first nine months, consolidated net premiums and fees earned were relatively steady, reflecting growth in General Insurance of 7.3%, offset by a 6.9% decline in Title Insurance.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income was affected mostly by trends in interest rates and levels of investments. The following tables reflect the segmented and consolidated invested asset bases as of the indicated dates, and the investment income earned and resulting yields on such assets. Since the Company can exercise little control over fair values, yields are evaluated on the basis of investment income earned in relation to the cost of the underlying invested assets, though yields based on the fair values of such assets are also shown in the statistics below.

Net investment income increased in both 2022 periods, primarily reflecting growth in the invested asset base and slightly higher investment yields earned in the quarter. The Company expects yields to increase on a comparable year-over-year basis in the next few quarters.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses
Total loss costs are affected by the amount of paid claims and the adequacy of reserve estimates established for current and prior years' claim occurrences at each balance sheet date.

The following table shows a breakdown of gross and net of reinsurance loss reserve estimates for major types of insurance coverages as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The Company's reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses represents the accumulation of estimates of ultimate losses payable, including incurred but not reported losses and loss adjustment expenses. The establishment of loss reserves by the Company's insurance subsidiaries is a reasonably complex and dynamic process influenced by a large variety of factors. Consequently, reserves established are a reflection of the opinions of a large number of persons, of the application and interpretation of historical precedent and trends, of expectations as to future developments, and of management's judgment in interpreting all such factors. At any point in time, the Company is exposed to the possibility of higher or lower than anticipated loss costs and the resulting changes in estimates are recorded in operations of the periods during which they are made.

Management believes that its overall reserving practices have been consistently applied over many years, and that its aggregate net reserves have generally resulting in reasonable approximations of the ultimate net costs of losses incurred. However, no representation is made nor is any guaranty given that ultimate net loss and related costs will not develop in future years to be significantly greater or lower than currently established reserve estimates. In management's opinion, such changes in net losses and related costs are not likely to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, although it could affect materially its consolidated results of operations for any one annual or interim reporting period. See further discussion in the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A - Risk Factors.

Variations in the Company's consolidated expense ratios reflect a continually changing mix of coverages sold and costs of producing business. To a significant degree, expense ratios for both the General and Title Insurance segments are mostly reflective of variable costs, such as commissions or similar charges, that rise or decline along with corresponding changes in premium and fee income. General operating expenses are routinely subject to timing, and can fluctuate with line of coverage mix, as well as investments in business expansion and information technology.

Net Investment Gains (Losses)
The Company's investment policies are not designed to maximize or emphasize the realization of investment gains. Rather, these policies aim for a stable source of income from interest and dividends, protection of capital, and providing sufficient liquidity to meet insurance underwriting and other obligations as they become payable in the future.

During the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, net realized investment gains reflect the continued rebalancing of the investment portfolio as well as tax planning considerations. All equity securities sold as part of the rebalance were completed within 11% of their respective 52 week high price. Dispositions of fixed income securities from scheduled maturities and early calls were 58.2% and 80.0% of total dispositions occurring in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Additionally, the third quarter includes investment impairment charges of $120.9, reflecting management's intent to dispose of certain fixed income securities currently in an unrealized loss position, driven by tax planning considerations.

Income Taxes
The effective consolidated income tax rates were (23.3)% and 16.4% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to 16.2% and 19.9% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021. The rates for each period reflect primarily the varying proportions of pretax operating income (loss) derived from partially tax preferred investment income (principally tax-exempt interest and dividend income).

General Insurance net premiums earned increased 7.1% and 7.3% for the quarter and first nine months, respectively, driven by growth in commercial auto and workers' compensation lines of coverage. Premium rate increases for most lines of coverage, high renewal retention ratios, and new business production all contributed, but were partially offset by reinstatement premiums currently estimated at $16.6 resulting from losses reinsured relative to Hurricane Ian.

The reported loss ratio for General Insurance improved in the quarter, inclusive of favorable reserve development from prior periods and lower current period loss costs. Favorable development of 4.7% in the quarter came predominantly from the commercial auto and workers' compensation lines of coverage. This was partially offset by unfavorable development in the financial indemnity (which includes public company D&O) line of coverage, stemming from large security class action claims activity occurring from accident years 2018 and 2019, and to a lesser extent, general liability coverages. The current period loss costs reflect several years of premium rate increases, underwriting actions, a shift in the line of coverage mix, and a relatively nominal amount from Hurricane Ian based on the Company's estimated $10.0 net retention.

Sales and General Expenses
The third quarter and first nine month expense ratios were elevated compared to the same periods last year, generally reflecting the shift in line of coverage mix. Investments in new products and geographies in recent years have diversified the General Insurance business, resulting in shifts in the lines of coverage mix toward lines with higher expense ratios and lower current period loss ratios.

Title Insurance net premiums and fees earned declined by 15.2% and 6.9% for the third quarter and first nine months, respectively. Both directly produced and agency produced revenues declined during the quarter, and it is expected that such revenues will continue to be lower in the fourth quarter of this year when compared to the same period last year. The main driver of these trends is increasing mortgage interest rates which continue to drive a steep reduction in refinance activity and to a lesser extent, purchase activity. An uptick in commercial transaction activity resulted in strong commercial premium growth during the periods reported, and accounted for 21.1% and 21.2% of third quarter and first nine months of 2022 earned premium, respectively, versus 15.4% and 14.5%, respectively, for the same periods last year.

Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses
Title Insurance loss ratios have remained in the single digits for a number of years due to a continuation of favorable trends in claims frequency and severity and were relatively consistent for the quarter and first nine months.

Sales and General Expenses
The third quarter and first nine month's expense ratios were elevated compared to the same periods last year, generally reflecting the combination of lower directly produced revenues that carry higher fixed expenses, and to a lesser extent, a greater proportion of agency produced revenues that have a higher overall expense ratio.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The Company's financial position at September 30, 2022 reflects an increase in liabilities of 6.5% and decreases in assets and common shareholders' equity of .1% and 17.6%, respectively, when compared to the immediately preceding year-end. Cash and invested assets represent 62.1% and 67.3% of consolidated assets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, the invested asset base, cash and accrued investment income decreased by 7.9% to $15,491.8.

Investment Portfolio

During the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, the Company continued to reduce equity holdings and reinvest the proceeds in intermediate-term, investment grade fixed income securities. Old Republic continues to adhere to its long-term policy of investing primarily in investment grade, marketable securities. At both September 30, 2022 and
35


December 31, 2021, nearly all of the Company's investments consisted of marketable securities. The investment portfolio does not contain high risk or illiquid asset classes and has zero or extremely limited exposure to, collateralized debt obligations (CDO's), credit default and interest rate swaps, hybrid securities, asset-backed securities (ABS), guaranteed investment contracts (GIC), structured investment vehicles (SIV), auction rate variable short-term securities, limited partnerships, derivatives, hedge funds or private equity investments. Moreover, the Company does not engage in hedging or securities lending transactions, nor does it invest in securities whose values are predicated on non-regulated financial instruments exhibiting amorphous or unfunded counter-party risk attributes. At September 30, 2022, the Company had no fixed income investments in default as to principal and/or interest.

Short-term investment positions reflect a large variety of seasonal and intermediate-term factors including current operating needs, expected operating cash flows, seasonality of quarterly cash flow, debt maturities, and investment strategy considerations. Accordingly, the future level of short-term investments will vary and respond to the interplay of these factors and may, as a result, increase or decrease from current levels. Short-term investment levels were elevated at September 30, 2022 due to the timing of reinvesting funds from sales of investments and the funding of the Company's share repurchase program.

The Company does not own or utilize derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging, enhancing the overall return of its investment portfolio, or reducing the cost of its debt obligations. With regard to its equity portfolio, the Company does not own any options nor does it engage in any type of option writing. Traditional investment management tools and techniques are employed to address the yield and valuation exposures of the invested assets base. The fixed income investment portfolio is managed so as to limit various risks inherent in the bond market. Credit risk is addressed through asset diversification and the purchase of investment grade securities. Reinvestment rate risk is reduced by concentrating on non-callable issues, and by taking asset-liability matching considerations into account. Purchases of mortgage and asset backed securities, which have variable principal prepayment options, are generally avoided. Market value risk is limited through the purchase of bonds of intermediate maturity. The combination of these investment management practices is expected to produce a more stable fixed income investment portfolio that is not subject to extreme interest rate sensitivity and principal deterioration.

The fair value of the Company's fixed income investment portfolio is sensitive, however, to fluctuations in the level of interest rates, but not materially affected by changes in anticipated cash flows caused by any prepayments. The impact of interest rate movements on the fixed income investment portfolio generally affects net unrealized gains or losses. As a general rule, rising interest rates enhance currently available yields but typically lead to a reduction in the fair value of existing fixed income investments. By contrast, a decline in such rates reduces currently available yields but usually serves to increase the fair value of the existing fixed income investment portfolio. All such changes in fair value of securities are reflected, net of deferred income taxes, directly in the shareholders' equity account, and as a separate component of the statement of comprehensive income. Given the Company's inability to forecast or control the movement of interest rates, Old Republic sets the maturity spectrum of its fixed income securities portfolio within parameters of estimated liability payouts, and focuses the overall portfolio on high quality investments. By so doing, Old Republic believes it is reasonably assured of its ability to hold securities to maturity as it may deem necessary in changing environments, and of ultimately recovering their aggregate cost.

Possible future declines in fair values for Old Republic's fixed income portfolio would negatively affect the common shareholders' equity account at any point in time, but would not necessarily result in the recognition of realized investment losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The parent holding company meets its liquidity and capital needs principally through dividends and interest on intercompany financing arrangements paid by its subsidiaries. The insurance subsidiaries' ability to pay cash dividends and interest to the parent company is generally restricted by law or subject to approval of the insurance regulatory authorities. Based on December 31, 2021 statutory balances, the Company can receive up to $982.0 in ordinary dividends from its subsidiaries in 2022 without the prior approval of regulatory authorities of which $440.4 has been received through September 30, 2022. The liquidity achievable through such permitted dividend payments is sufficient to cover the parent holding company's currently expected regularly recurring cash outflows represented mostly by interest, reasonably anticipated cash dividend payments to shareholders, modest operating expenses, and the near-term capital needs of its operating company subsidiaries.

Old Republic's total capitalization of $7,274.7 at September 30, 2022 consisted of debt of $1,596.6 and common shareholders' equity of $5,678.1. Changes in the common shareholders' equity account reflect primarily net income excluding net investment gains (losses), realized and unrealized gains (losses), dividend payments to shareholders and share repurchases for the period then ended. At September 30, 2022, the Company's consolidated debt to equity ratio was 28.1%.

Old Republic has paid a cash dividend without interruption since 1942 (81 years), and it has raised the annual cash dividend payout for each of the past 41 years. The dividend rate is reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis each year. In establishing each year's cash dividend rate the Company does not follow a strict formulaic approach. Rather, it favors a gradual rise in the annual dividend rate that is largely reflective of long-term consolidated operating earnings trends. Accordingly, each year's dividend rate is set judgmentally in consideration of such key factors as the dividend paying capacity of the Company's insurance subsidiaries, the trends in average annual earnings for the five to ten most recent calendar years, and management's long-term expectations for the Company's consolidated business and its individual operating subsidiaries.

On August 18, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized a $450 share repurchase program and a special, one-time cash dividend of $1.00 per share. The repurchase program is intended to comply with Rule 10b-18 and has no expiration date, does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Old Republic may also from time to time repurchase shares pursuant to written, pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plans. In reaching its decision to authorize the share repurchase program and the special cash dividend, the Board evaluated such factors as the current and foreseeable liquidity and capital needs of the parent holding company and its insurance company subsidiaries. During the quarter, the Company returned total capital to shareholders of $479.1, comprised of $374.3 in common stock dividends and $104.8 of share repurchases (4.8 million shares at an average price of $21.49 per share). Following the close of the quarter and through November 3, the Company repurchased 6.0 million additional shares for $136.8 (average price of $22.48), leaving $208.2 remaining under the current repurchase authorization.

Under state insurance regulations, the Company's three mortgage guaranty insurance subsidiaries are required to hold minimum amounts of capital based on specified formulas. Since the Company's mortgage insurance subsidiaries have discontinued writing new business the risk-to-capital ratio considerations are therefore no longer of consequence.

The Company's principal mortgage insurance subsidiaries sought and received approval from the North Carolina Department of Insurance to pay extraordinary dividends amounting to $35.0 and $105.0 during the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively.

Other Assets

Substantially all of the Company's receivables are current. Reinsurance recoverable balances on paid or estimated unpaid losses are deemed recoverable from solvent reinsurers or have otherwise been reduced by allowances for estimated credit losses. Deferred policy acquisition costs are estimated by taking into account the direct costs relating to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts and evaluating their recoverability on the basis of recent trends in loss costs.

Reinsurance Programs

In order to maintain premium production within its capacity and limit maximum losses for which it might become liable under its policies, Old Republic, as is common practice in the insurance industry, may cede a portion or all of its premiums and related liabilities on certain classes of insurance, individual policies, or blocks of business to other insurers and reinsurers. Further discussion of the Company's reinsurance programs can be found in Part 1 of the Company's 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

TERMINATION OF SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS PLAN

On August 18, 2022, the Board of Directors approved the termination of the Company's shareholders' rights plan, commonly referred to as a "poison pill", which was originally scheduled to terminate on June 25, 2027. The shareholders' rights plan was amended to accelerate the expiration date to August 18, 2022, terminating the plan as of that date. The Company had maintained a shareholders' rights plan in place for more than three decades. The decision to terminate the shareholders' rights plan reflects the Board of Director's regular assessment of the governance attributes that best serve the long-term interests of all the Company's stakeholders and was made after engagement with institutional shareholders.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIESESTIMATES

The Company's annual and interim financial statements incorporate a large number and types of estimates relative to matters which are highly uncertain at the time the estimates are made. The estimation process required of an insurance enterprise such as Old Republic is by its very nature highly dynamic inasmuch as it necessitates a continuous evaluation, analysis, and quantification of factual data as it becomes known to the Company. As a result, actual experienced outcomes can differ from the estimates made at any point in time and thus affect future periods' reported revenues, expenses, net income or loss, and financial condition.

Old Republic believes that its most critical accounting estimates relate to: a) the determination of credit losses in the value of investments; b) the recoverability of reinsured outstanding losses; and c)to the establishment of reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses.expenses and the recoverability of reinsured outstanding losses. The major assumptions and methods used in setting these estimates are discussedsummarized in the Company's 20202021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND OLD REPUBLIC'S BUSINESS

During the third quarter of 2021, the economy continued to recover from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated governmental responses (“COVID-19” or “the pandemic”). Most of Old Republic’s business operations have permitted associates to return to the office. Old Republic experienced no meaningful interruption in its ability to service the needs of customers throughout the remote working environment or the beginning stages of the return to office.

Demand for several of the Company’s insurance coverages in the General Insurance Segment is related to overall economic conditions, however, the Company’s exposure to the sectors most significantly affected by COVID-19 has not been significant. Additionally, aside from higher reported delinquencies and resulting claims costs experienced within the RFIG-run off business during 2020, the overall impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s claims experience has not been significant.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely impact the U.S. economy and financial markets, however, to a much lesser degree than 2020. New variants of the COVID-19 virus or a resurgence in infection rates could lead to a further or continuing reduction in economic activity, resulting in a decline in demand for the Company’s products or increased claims experience in future periods. As a result, the Company’s operating results, business and financial condition could be adversely affected in subsequent periods by future economic disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As the economy continues to emerge from the impacts of the pandemic, premium and fee revenues in General Insurance could continue growing. As low interest rates and a favorable real estate market continue, Title Insurance premium and fee revenues could remain strong, although may be lower than recent periods. In the RFIG Run-off business, future claims experience could depend upon the continued, mitigating effects of loan forbearance programs mandated by the Federal government, the rate at which employment levels recover, and the real estate market. Management believes that the Company’s strong financial condition will enable it to thrive as the economy recovers.

FINANCIAL POSITION

The Company's financial position at September 30, 2021 reflected increases in assets, liabilities and common shareholders' equity of 9.5%, 12.2% and 2.3%, respectively, when compared to the immediately preceding year-end. Cash and invested assets represented 66.7% and 68.1% of consolidated assets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the invested asset base, cash and accrued investment income increased by 7.3% to $16,666.7.

Investments - During the first nine months of 2021 and 2020, the Company committed the majority of investable funds to short to intermediate-term fixed maturity securities and higher yielding publicly traded large capitalization equity securities. Old Republic continues to adhere to its long-term policy of investing primarily in investment grade, marketable securities. At both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, nearly all of the Company's investments consisted of marketable securities. The investment portfolio contains no significant insurance risk-correlated asset exposures to real estate, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations ("CDO's"), derivatives, hybrid securities, or illiquid private equity and hedge fund investments. Moreover, the Company does not engage in hedging or securities lending transactions, nor does it invest in securities whose values are predicated on non-regulated financial instruments exhibiting amorphous or unfunded counter-party risk attributes. At September 30, 2021, the Company had no fixed maturity investments in default as to principal and/or interest.

Short-term investment positions reflect a large variety of seasonal and intermediate-term factors including current operating needs, expected operating cash flows, seasonality of quarterly cash flow, debt maturities, and investment strategy considerations. Accordingly, the future level of short-term investments will vary and respond to the interplay of these factors and may, as a result, increase or decrease from current levels.
29


The Company does not own or utilize derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging, enhancing the overall return of its investment portfolio, or reducing the cost of its debt obligations. With regard to its equity portfolio, the Company does not own any options nor does it engage in any type of option writing. Traditional investment management tools and techniques are employed to address the yield and valuation exposures of the invested assets base. The long-term fixed maturity investment portfolio is managed so as to limit various risks inherent in the bond market. Credit risk is addressed through asset diversification and the purchase of investment grade securities. Reinvestment rate risk is reduced by concentrating on non-callable issues, and by taking asset-liability matching considerations into account. Purchases of mortgage and asset backed securities, which have variable principal prepayment options, are generally avoided. Market value risk is limited through the purchase of bonds of intermediate maturity. The combination of these investment management practices is expected to produce a more stable long-term fixed maturity investment portfolio that is not subject to extreme interest rate sensitivity and principal deterioration.

The fair value of the Company's long-term fixed maturity investment portfolio is sensitive, however, to fluctuations in the level of interest rates, but not materially affected by changes in anticipated cash flows caused by any prepayments. The impact of interest rate movements on the long-term fixed maturity investment portfolio generally affects net unrealized gains or losses. As a general rule, rising interest rates enhance currently available yields but typically lead to a reduction in the fair value of existing fixed maturity investments. By contrast, a decline in such rates reduces currently available yields but usually serves to increase the fair value of the existing fixed maturity investment portfolio. All such changes in fair value of available for sale securities are reflected, net of deferred income taxes, directly in the shareholders' equity account, and as a separate component of the statement of comprehensive income. Given the Company's inability to forecast or control the movement of interest rates, Old Republic sets the maturity spectrum of its fixed maturity securities portfolio within parameters of estimated liability payouts, and focuses the overall portfolio on high quality investments. By so doing, Old Republic believes it is reasonably assured of its ability to hold securities to maturity as it may deem necessary in changing environments, and of ultimately recovering their aggregate cost.

Possible future declines in fair values for Old Republic's available for sale fixed maturity portfolio would negatively affect the common shareholders' equity account at any point in time, but would not necessarily result in the recognition of realized investment losses.

The aging of issues with unrealized losses employs balance sheet date fair value comparisons with an issue's cost. The percentage reduction from such cost reflects the decline as of a specific point in time (September 30, 2021 in the above table) and, accordingly, is not indicative of a security's value having been consistently below its cost at the percentages shown nor throughout the periods shown.

Other Assets - Substantially all of the Company's receivables are not past due. Reinsurance recoverable balances on paid or estimated unpaid losses are deemed recoverable from solvent reinsurers or have otherwise been reduced by allowances for estimated credit losses. Deferred policy acquisition costs are estimated by taking into account the direct costs relating to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts and evaluating their recoverability on the basis of recent trends in claims costs. The Company's deferred policy acquisition cost balances have not fluctuated substantially from period-to-period, and do not represent significant percentages of assets or shareholders' equity.

Liquidity - The parent holding company meets its liquidity and capital needs principally through dividends and interest on intercompany financing arrangements paid by its subsidiaries. The insurance subsidiaries' ability to pay
32


cash dividends to the parent company is generally restricted by law or subject to approval of the insurance regulatory authorities. Based on December 31, 2020 statutory balances, the Company can receive up to $699.3 in ordinary dividends from its subsidiaries in 2021 without the prior approval of regulatory authorities. The liquidity achievable through such permitted dividend payments is considered sufficient to cover the parent holding company's currently expected cash outflows represented mostly by interest and scheduled repayments on outstanding debt, reasonably anticipated cash dividend payments to shareholders, modest operating expenses, and the near-term capital needs of its operating company subsidiaries. In addition to ordinary dividends, the Company's principal mortgage insurance carriers sought and received approval from the North Carolina Department of Insurance to pay extraordinary dividends amounting to $25.0 and $75.0 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

Capitalization - Old Republic's total capitalization of $7,917.6 at September 30, 2021 consisted of debt of $1,588.2 and common shareholders' equity of $6,329.4. Changes in the common shareholders' equity account reflect primarily net income excluding net investment gains (losses), realized and unrealized gains (losses), and dividend payments to shareholders for the period then ended. At September 30, 2021, the Company's consolidated debt to equity ratio was 25.1%.

Old Republic has paid a cash dividend without interruption since 1942 (80 years), and it has raised the annual cash dividend payout for each of the past 40 years. The dividend rate is reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis each year. In establishing each year's cash dividend rate the Company does not follow a strict formulaic approach. Rather, it favors a gradual rise in the annual dividend rate that is largely reflective of long-term consolidated operating earnings trends. Accordingly, each year's dividend rate is set judgmentally in consideration of such key factors as the dividend paying capacity of the Company's insurance subsidiaries, the trends in average annual statutory and GAAP earnings for the five to ten most recent calendar years, and management's long-term expectations for the Company's consolidated business and its individual operating subsidiaries. The Company's Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $1.50 per share in August 2021, which was paid on October 6, 2021.

Under state insurance regulations, the Company's three mortgage guaranty insurance subsidiaries are required to hold minimum amounts of capital based on specified formulas. Since the Company's mortgage insurance subsidiaries have discontinued writing new business the risk-to-capital ratio considerations are therefore no longer of consequence.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues: Premiums & Fees

Pursuant to GAAP applicable to the insurance industry, revenues are recognized as follows:

Substantially all general insurance premiums pertain to annual policies and are reflected in income on a pro-rata basis in association with the related benefits, claims and expenses. Earned but unbilled premiums are generally taken into income on the billing date, while adjustments for retrospective premiums, commissions and similar charges or credits are accrued on the basis of periodic evaluations of current underwriting experience and contractual obligations.

Title premium and fee revenues stemming from the Company's direct operations (which include branch offices of its title insurers and wholly owned agency subsidiaries) represent approximately 23% of 2021 consolidated title business revenues. Such premiums are generally recognized as income at the escrow closing date which approximates the policy effective date. Fee income related to escrow and other closing services is recognized when the related services have been performed and completed. The remaining 77% of consolidated title premium and fee revenues is produced by independent title agents and underwritten title companies. Rather than making estimates that could be subject to significant variance from actual premium and fee production, the Company recognizes revenues from those sources upon receipt. Such receipts can reflect a three to four month lag relative to the effective date of the underlying title policy, and are offset concurrently by production expenses and claim reserve provisions.

The Company's mortgage guaranty premiums primarily stem from monthly installments paid on long-duration, guaranteed renewable insurance policies. Such premiums are written and earned in the month coverage is effective. With respect to relatively few annual or single premium policies, earned premiums are largely recognized on a pro-rata basis over the terms of the policies.

Revenues: Net Investment Income

Net investment income is affected by trends in interest and dividend yields for the types of securities in which the Company's funds are invested during each reporting period. The following tables reflect the segmented and consolidated invested asset bases as of the indicated dates, and the investment income earned and resulting yields on such assets. Since the Company can exercise little control over fair values, yields are evaluated on the basis of investment income earned in relation to the cost of the underlying invested assets, though yields based on the fair values of such assets are also shown in the statistics below.

Revenues: Net Investment Gains (Losses)

The Company's investment policies are not designed to maximize or emphasize the realization of investment gains. Rather, these policies aim for a stable source of income from interest and dividends, protection of capital, and the providing of sufficient liquidity to meet insurance underwriting and other obligations as they become payable in the future. Dispositions of fixed maturity securities from scheduled maturities and early calls were 80.0% and 73.1% of total dispositions occurring in the first nine months of 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Expenses: Benefits and Claims

The Company records the benefits, claims and related settlement costs that have been incurred during each accounting period. Total claim costs are affected by the amount of paid claims and the adequacy of reserve estimates established for current and prior years' claim occurrences at each balance sheet date.

The Company's reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses represents the accumulation of estimates of ultimate losses payable, including incurred but not reported losses and loss adjustment expenses. The establishment of claim reserves by the Company's insurance subsidiaries is a reasonably complex and dynamic process influenced by a large variety of factors as further discussed below. Consequently, reserves established are a reflection of the opinions of a large number of persons, of the application and interpretation of historical precedent and trends, of expectations as to future developments, and of management's judgment in interpreting all such factors. At any point in time, the Company is exposed to the possibility of higher or lower than anticipated claim costs and the resulting changes in estimates are recorded in operations of the periods during which they are made. Increases to prior reserve estimates are often referred to as unfavorable development whereas any changes that decrease previous estimates of the Company's ultimate liability are referred to as favorable development.

Overview of Loss Reserving Process

The Company's reserve setting process reflects the nature of its insurance business and the operationally decentralized basis upon which it is conducted. Old Republic's general insurance operations encompasses a large variety of coverages or classes of commercial insurance; it has negligible exposure to personal insurance coverages such as homeowners or private passenger automobile insurance that exhibit wide diversification of risks, significant frequency of claim occurrences, and high degrees of statistical credibility. Additionally, the Company's insurance subsidiaries do not provide significant amounts of insurance protection for premises; most of its property insurance exposures relate to cargo, incidental property, and insureds' inland marine assets. Consequently, the wide variety of policies issued and commercial insurance customers served require that loss reserves be analyzed and established in the context of the unique or different attributes of each block or class of business produced by the Company. For example, accident liability claims emanating from insured trucking companies or from general aviation customers become known relatively quickly, whereas claims of a general liability nature arising from the building activities of a construction company may emerge over extended periods of time. Similarly, claims filed pursuant to errors and omissions or directors and officers liability coverages are usually not prone to immediate evaluation or quantification inasmuch as many such claims may be litigated over several years and their ultimate costs may be affected by the vagaries of judged or jury verdicts. Approximately 90% of the general insurance group's claim reserves stem from liability insurance coverages for commercial customers which typically require more extended periods of investigation and at times protracted litigation before they are finally settled. As a consequence of these and other factors, Old Republic does not utilize a single, overarching loss reserving approach.

The Company prepares periodic analyses of its loss reserve estimates for its significant insurance coverages. It establishes point estimates for most losses on an insurance coverage line-by-line basis for individual subsidiaries, sub-classes, individual accounts, blocks of business or other unique concentrations of insurance risks such as directors and officers liability, that have similar attributes. Actuarially or otherwise derived ranges of reserve levels are not utilized as such in setting these reserves. Instead the reported reserves encompass the Company's best point estimates at each reporting date and the overall reserve level at any point in time therefore represents the compilation of a very large number of reported reserve estimates and the results of a variety of formula calculations largely driven by analysis of historical data. Favorable or unfavorable developments of prior year reserves are implicitly covered by the point estimates incorporated in total reserves at each balance sheet date. The Company does not project future variability or make an explicit provision for uncertainty when determining its best estimate of loss reserves. Over the most recent decade actual incurred losses have developed within a reasonable range of their original estimates.

Aggregate loss reserves consist of liability estimates for claims that have been reported ("case") to the Company's insurance subsidiaries and reserves for claims that have been incurred but not yet reported ("IBNR") or whose ultimate costs may not become fully apparent until a future time. Additionally, the Company establishes unallocated loss adjustment expense reserves for loss settlement costs that are not directly related to individual claims. Such reserves are based on prior years' cost experience and trends, and are intended to cover the unallocated costs of
37


claim departments' administration of case and IBNR claims over time. Long-term, disability-type workers' compensation reserves are discounted to present value based on interest rates that generally range from 3.0% to 4.0%.

A large variety of statistical analyses and formula calculations are utilized to provide for IBNR claim costs as well as additional costs that can arise from such factors as monetary and social inflation, changes in claims administration processes, changes in reinsurance ceded and recoverability levels, and expected trends in claim costs and related ratios. Typically, such formulas take into account so-called link ratios that represent prior years' patterns of incurred or paid loss trends between succeeding years, or past experience relative to progressions of the number of claims reported over time and ultimate average costs per claim.

Overall, reserves pertaining to several hundred large individual commercial insurance accounts that exhibit sufficient statistical credibility, and at times may be subject to retrospective premium rating plans or the utilization of varying levels or types of self-insured retentions through captive insurers and similar risk management mechanisms are established on an account by account basis using case reserves and applicable formula-driven methods. Large account reserves are usually set and analyzed for groups of coverages such as workers' compensation, commercial automobile (trucking) and general liability that are typically underwritten jointly for many customers. For certain so-called long-tail categories of insurance such as retained or assumed excess liability or excess workers' compensation, officers and directors' liability, and commercial umbrella liability relative to which claim development patterns are particularly long, more volatile, and immature in their early stages of development, the Company judgmentally establishes the most current accident years' loss reserves on the basis of expected claim ratios. Such expected claim ratios typically reflect currently estimated claim ratios from prior accident years, adjusted for the effect of actual and anticipated rate changes, actual and anticipated changes in coverage, reinsurance, mix of business, and other anticipated changes in external factors such as trends in loss costs or the legal and claims environment. Expected claim ratios are generally used for the two to five most recent accident years depending on the individual class or category of business. As actual claims data emerges in succeeding interim and annual periods, the original accident year claim ratio assumptions are validated or otherwise adjusted sequentially through the application of statistical projection techniques such as the Bornhuetter/Ferguson method which utilizes data from the more mature experience of prior years to arrive at a likely indication of more recent years' loss trends and costs.

Title insuranceand related escrow services loss and loss adjustment expense reserves are established as point estimates to cover the projected settlement costs of known as well as IBNR losses related to premium and escrow service revenues of each reporting period. Reserves for known claims are based on an assessment of the facts available to the Company during the settlement process. The point estimates covering all claim reserves take into account IBNR claims based on past experience and evaluations of such variables as changing trends in the types of policies issued, changes in real estate markets and interest rate environments, and changing levels of loan refinancing, all of which can have a bearing on the emergence, number, and ultimate costs of claims.

RFIG Run-offmortgage guaranty insurancereserves for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses are recognized only upon an instance of default, defined as an insured mortgage loan for which two or more consecutive monthly payments have been missed. Loss reserves are based on statistical calculations that take into account the number of reported insured mortgage loan defaults as of each balance sheet date, as well as experience-based estimates of loan defaults that have occurred but have not as yet been reported. Further, the loss reserve estimating process takes into account a large number of variables including trends in claim severity, potential salvage recoveries, expected cure rates for reported loan delinquencies at various stages of default, the level of coverage rescissions and claims denials due to material misrepresentation in key underwriting information or non-compliance with prescribed underwriting guidelines, and management judgments relative to future employment levels, housing market activity, and mortgage loan interest costs, demand, and extensions.

The Company has the legal right to rescind mortgage insurance coverage unilaterally as expressly stated in its policy. Moreover, two federal courts that have considered that policy wording have each affirmed that right. According to the policy, if any representations are materially false or misleading with respect to a loan, the Company has the right to cancel or rescind coverage for that loan retroactively to commencement of the coverage. In the case of mortgage guaranty insurance, rescissions have occurred regularly over the years but have been generally immaterial. During the period of the great recession the Company experienced a much greater incidence of rescissions due to increased levels of observed fraud and misrepresentations in insurance applications pertaining to business underwritten between 2004 and the first half of 2008 in particular. In recent years, the incidence of rescissions has returned to immaterial levels.

Incurred Loss Experience

Management believes that the Company's overall reserving practices have been consistently applied over many years. Previously established aggregate reserves have produced reasonable estimates of the cumulative ultimate net costs of claims incurred. However, there are no guarantees that such outcomes will continue, and, accordingly, no representation is made that ultimate net claim and related costs will not develop in future years to be greater or lower than currently established reserve estimates. In management's opinion, however, such potential development is not likely to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, although it could affect materially its consolidated results of operations for any one annual or interim reporting period. See further discussion in the Company's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1A - Risk Factors.

A summary of changes in aggregate reserves for claims and related costs is included in Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The General Insurance reported claim ratio improved in both 2021 periods, influenced by favorable reserve development from prior periods and a lower current period claim provision, reflecting several years of premium rate increases and underwriting actions. The group experienced favorable development of prior years' reserves of 3.2 and 2.9 percentage points for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to .8 and .5 percentage points for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively.

Unfavorable asbestos and environmental ("A&E") claim developments, although not material in any of the periods presented, are typically attributable to periodic re-evaluations of A&E claim reserves as well as subsequent reclassifications of other coverages' reserves, most often workers' compensation, deemed assignable to A&E category of losses. Except for a small portion that emanates from ongoing primary insurance operations, a large majority of the A&E claim reserves posted by Old Republic stem mainly from its participations in assumed reinsurance treaties and insurance pools which were discontinued during the 1980's and have since been in run-off status. With respect to the primary portion of gross A&E reserves, Old Republic administers the related claims through its claims personnel as well as outside attorneys, and posted reserves reflect its best estimates of ultimate claim costs. Claims administration for the assumed portion of the Company's A&E exposures is handled by the claims departments of unrelated primary or ceding reinsurance companies. While the Company performs periodic reviews of certain claim files managed by third parties, the overall A&E reserves it establishes respond to the paid claim and case reserve activity reported to the Company as well as available industry statistical data such as so-called survival ratios. Such ratios represent the number of years' average paid losses for the three or five most recent calendar years that are encompassed by an insurer's A&E reserve level at any point in time. According to this simplistic appraisal of an insurer's A&E loss reserve level, Old Republic's average five year survival ratios stood at 7.4 years (gross) and 7.8 years (net of reinsurance) as of September 30, 2021 and 6.3 years (gross) and 7.1 years (net of reinsurance) as of
39


December 31, 2020. Fluctuations in this ratio between years can be caused by the inconsistent pay out patterns associated with these types of claims. Incurred net losses for A&E claims have averaged .3% of general insurance group net incurred losses for the five years ended December 31, 2020.

Title insuranceclaim ratios have remained in the single digits for a number of years due to a continuation of favorable trends in claims frequency and severity. The reported claim ratio was higher for the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2021, influenced somewhat by less favorable reserve development from prior periods. This favorable development of reserves established in prior years reduced the claim ratio by .8 and .7 percentage points for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively and 1.0 and .8 percentage points for the same respective periods of 2020.

RFIG Run-off claim costs reflect fewer newly reported delinquencies along with improving trends in cure rates and claim severity influenced by the ongoing economic recovery and continued strength in the real estate market. Incurred claim ratios reflect favorable development of 106.3 and 47.7 percentage points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively. This compares to 77.8 and 22.3 percentage points of favorable development for the respective 2020 periods.

Reinsurance Programs

To maintain premium production within its capacity and limit maximum losses and risks for which it might become liable under its policies, Old Republic may cede a portion or all of its premiums and liabilities on certain classes of insurance, individual policies, or blocks of business to other insurers and reinsurers. Further discussion of the Company's reinsurance programs can be found in Part 1 of the Company's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Variations in the Company's consolidated expense ratios reflect a continually changing mix of coverages sold and attendant costs of producing business in the Company's three largest business segments. To a significant degree, expense ratios for both the general and title insurance segments are mostly reflective of variable costs, such as commissions or similar charges, that rise or decline along with corresponding changes in premium and fee income. Moreover, general operating expenses can contract or expand in differing proportions due to varying levels of operating efficiencies and expense management opportunities in the face of changing market conditions.

OTHER INFORMATION

Reference is here made to "Information About Segments of Business" appearing elsewhere herein.

Historical data pertaining to the operating results, liquidity, and other performance indicators applicable to an insurance enterprise such as Old Republic are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved in succeeding years. In addition to the factors cited below, the long-term nature of the insurance business, seasonal and annual patterns in premium production and incidence of claims, changes in yields obtained on invested assets, changes in government policies and free markets affecting inflation rates and general economic conditions, and changes in legal precedents or the application of law affecting the settlement of disputed and other claims can have a bearing on period-to-period comparisons and future operating results. It is possible that Old Republic's operating results, business and financial condition could be adversely affected in subsequent periods by future economic disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated governmental responses.

Some of the oral or written statements made in the Company's reports, press releases, and conference calls following earnings releases, can constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Of necessity, anyAny such forward-looking statements involve assumptions, uncertainties, and risks that may affect the Company's future performance. With regard to Old Republic's General Insurance segment, its results can be particularly affected by the level of market competition, which is typically a function of available capital and expected returns on such capital among competitors, the levels of investment yields and inflation rates, and periodic changes in claim frequency and severity patterns caused by natural disasters, weather conditions, accidents, illnesses, work-related injuries, and unanticipated external events. Title Insurance and RFIG Run-off results can be affected by similar factors, and by changes in national and regional housing demand and values, the availability and cost of mortgage loans, employment trends, and default rates on mortgage loans. Life and accident insurance earnings can be affected by the levels of employment and consumer spending, changes in mortality and health trends, and alterations in policy lapsation rates. At the parent holding company level, operating earnings or losses are generally reflective of the amount of debt outstanding and its cost, interest income on temporary holdings of short-term investments, and period-to-period variations in the costs of administering the Company's widespread operations.

The General Insurance, Title Insurance, Corporate and& Other, Segments, and the RFIG Run-off business maintain customer information and rely upon technology platforms to conduct their business. As a result, each of them and the Company are exposed to cyber risk. Many of the Company's operating subsidiaries maintain separate IT systems which are deemed to reduce enterprise-wide risks of potential cybersecurity incidents. However, given the potential magnitude of a significant breach, the Company continually evaluates on an enterprise-wide basis its IT hardware, security infrastructure and business practices to respond to these risks and to detect and remediate in a timely manner significant cybersecurity incidents or business process interruptions.

A more detailed listing and discussion of the risks and other factors which affect the Company's risk-taking insurance business are included in Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factor of this report and Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors, of the Company's 20202021 Form 10-K Annual Report filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is specifically incorporated herein by reference.

Any forward-looking statements or commentaries speak only as of their dates. Old Republic undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any and all such comments, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, and accordingly they may not be unduly relied upon.

Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective for the above referenced evaluation period.

Changes in Internal Control

During the three month period ended September 30, 2021,2022, there were no changes in internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s systems and processes have been, and will likely remain, subject(1) On August 18, 2022, the Company announced a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase up to cyber-attacks and other intrusions. These attacks are occurring with greater frequency and sophistication, and include malware and computer virus attacks, ransomware, unauthorized access, misuse, denial-of-service attacks, system failures and disruptions. A breach$450 million in shares of the Company’s systems orCompany's common stock. The repurchase program is intended to comply with Rule 10b-18 and has no expiration date, does not require the systemspurchase of a third-party vendor or services provider could disrupt the Company’s ability to conduct business operations. During such an event, systemsany minimum number of shares and may be inaccessible to employees, customerssuspended, modified or business partners for an extended period ofdiscontinued at any time and employees may be unable to perform their duties. These attacks could expose the Company to substantial costs and negative consequences, including the loss of funds, remediation costs, lost revenues and reputational damage.

In addition, the email and computer systems used by the Company, its service providers and agents for the transfer of funds have been subject to fraudulent spoofing attacks. In some cases, unauthorized access or fraudulent attacks have not been immediately detected, thereby increasing the severity of the incident. Funds transferred to a fraudulent recipient are not always recoverable and the Company may be liable for those unrecovered funds. Losses resulting from unrecovered funds could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Old Republic regularly monitors its networks, infrastructure and procedures in an effort to prevent, detect, address and mitigate these risks. There is no assurance that the Company’s security procedures will provide fully effective protection from such events. A cyber incident or fraud attack could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, Old Republic’s businesses must comply with laws and regulations enacted by U.S. federal and state governments, as well as laws enacted by various regulatory organizations or exchanges relating to the privacy and security of the information of clients, employees or others. These laws and regulations are increasing in complexity and number, change frequently and sometimes conflict. The compromise of personal, confidential or proprietary information could expose the Company to liability under federal and state laws, and subject it to litigation and investigations and result in reputational harm, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the associated governmental responses could materially adversely affect Old Republic’s business.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely impact the U.S. economy and financial markets. New variants of the COVID-19 virus or a resurgence in infection rates could lead to a further or continuing reduction in economic activity, resulting in a decline in demand for the Company’s products. The pandemic could also have a more significant impact on Old Republic’s claims experience in future periods, resulting in a decrease in profitability.

In addition, actions taken in response to the pandemic by federal, state and local government authorities, including state insurance departments, could, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect Old Republic’s business.
