2. Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, except for the following:
Derivative Instruments - The Company has recently entered into reinsurance contracts that are accounted for as derivatives. These reinsurance contracts provide indemnification to an insured or cedant as a result of a change in a variable as opposed to an identifiable insurable event. The Company considers these contracts to be part of its underwriting operations. The derivatives are initially valued at cost which approximates fair value. In subsequent measurement periods, the fair values of these derivatives are determined using internally developed discounted cash flow models using appropriate discount rates. Net asset and liability derivatives are classified within other assets and other liabilities, as applicable, in the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value prior to settlement of the derivative instruments are unrealized and recognized in net income for those derivatives not designated as hedges. The unrealized gains (losses) are included in other insurance revenue as the derivative instruments held are related to the Company's underwriting portfolio and are not investment related. Please refer to "Note 5. Fair Value Measurements" for further disclosures regarding the derivative instruments held by the Company.
Recently IssuedAdopted Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
Fair ValueAccounting for Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale RestrictionsCredit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2022,2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-03 "2016-13 Fair Value Measurement"Financial Instruments: Credit Losses (Topic 326)" replacing the "incurred loss" impairment methodology with an approach based on "expected losses" to estimate credit losses on certain types of Equityfinancial instruments and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The guidance requires financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the cost of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.
ASU 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale ("AFS") debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments: Credit Losses Available-for-Sale Debt Securities Subject. Credit losses relating to Contractual Sale Restrictions"AFS debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than under the previous OTTI methodology.
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04 for targeted improvements related to ASU 2016-13 which clarify that an entity should include all expected recoveries in its estimate of the allowance for credit losses. In addition, for collateral dependent financial assets, the amendments mandate that an allowance for credit losses that is added to the amortized cost basis of the financial asset should not exceed amounts previously written off. It also clarifies FASB’s intent to include all reinsurance recoverables within the scope of Topic 944 an amendmentto be within the scope of Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820).Subtopic 326-20, regardless of the measurement basis of those recoverables. The amendments in thisCompany's reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses is currently the most significant financial asset within the scope of ASU require2016-13.
Topic 326 was adopted by the Company to provide disclosureson January 1, 2023 and an opening allowance for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions under 820-10-50-6B includingexpected credit losses of $5,513 was recognized by the Company in the beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2023.
Credit Losses - AFS Fixed Maturity Securities
An AFS fixed maturity security is considered impaired if the fair value of equitythe investment is below its amortized cost. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates all AFS fixed maturities for impairment losses. If an AFS fixed maturity security is impaired and the Company intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, the full amount of the impairment loss is charged immediately to net income (loss) and is included in net investment gains (losses).
If the Company does not intend to sell or will not be required to sell the impaired security before its anticipated recovery, the Company determines whether the decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss impairment or other factors. If the Company does not anticipate to fully recover the amortized cost, an allowance for expected credit losses is established. The allowance for expected credit losses is limited to the difference between a security's amortized cost basis and its fair value. The allowance for expected credit losses is charged to net income (loss) and is included in net investment gains (losses).
On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses whether unrealized losses on its AFS fixed maturity securities represent credit impairments by considering the following factors: the extent to which its fair value is less than its amortized cost; adverse conditions related to the specific security, industry, or geographical area; any recent downgrades in the security's credit rating by a credit rating agency; and if failure of the issuer to make scheduled principal or interest payments exists.
The length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position no longer impacts the determination of whether a credit loss impairment exists. If a security is assessed to be credit impaired, it is subject to contractual sale restrictions reflecteddiscounted cash flow analysis by comparing the present value of expected future cash flows with the amortized cost basis. If the present value of expected cash flows is less than the amortized cost, then a credit loss exists and an allowance for expected credit losses is recognized. If the present value of expected future cash flows is equal to or greater than the amortized cost basis, an expected credit loss does not exist. The non-credit impairment amount of the loss related to changes in interest rates and market conditions is recognized in other comprehensive income. The Company reports accrued interest receivable related to AFS securities separately and has elected not to measure an allowance for expected credit losses for accrued interest receivable. Write-offs of accrued interest receivable balances are recognized in net investment gains and losses in the balance sheet;period in which they are deemed uncollectible.
Based on the natureCompany's analysis, there was no allowance for expected credit losses recognized on AFS securities held at June 30, 2023.
Credit Losses - Other Investments
The Company's investments in direct lending entities are carried at cost less an allowance for expected credit losses, with any indication of credit loss recognized in net income or loss when determined to be needed from the Company's analysis of expected future cash flows. As of June 30, 2023, the total allowance for expected credit losses on the Company's investment in direct lending entities was $1,023. Please see "Note 5(d). Fair Value Measurements" for additional information regarding this investment.

Reinsurance recoverable balances are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis and are presented net of an allowance for expected credit losses. A case-specific allowance for expected credit losses against reinsurance recoverables that the Company deems unlikely to be collected in full, is estimated based on the Company's analysis of amounts due, historical delinquencies and write-offs. In addition, a default analysis is used to estimate an allowance for expected credit losses on the remainder of the restrictions;reinsurance recoverable balance. The principal components of the default analysis are reinsurance recoverable balances by reinsurer and any circumstances that could causedefault factors applied to estimate uncollectible amounts based on reinsurers’ credit ratings and the length of collection periods. The default factors are based on a lapsemodel developed by a major rating agency. The default analysis considers both current and forecasted economic conditions in the restrictions. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

Other-than-temporarily impaired ("OTTI")Allowance for Expected Credit Losses & Non-Credit Related Impairment Costs
The Company performs quarterly reviews of its fixed maturities in order to determine whether declines inevaluates AFS securities for impairment when fair value is below the amortized cost basis were considered other-than-temporary in accordance with applicable guidance. At September 30, 2022, we determined that unrealized losses on fixed maturities were primarily duea quarterly basis. If the Company intends to changes in interest rates as well assell or will be required to sell the impact of foreign exchange rate changes on certain foreign currency denominated fixed maturities since their date of purchase. All fixed maturity securities continue to paysecurity before its anticipated recovery, the expected coupon payments under the contractual termsfull amount of the securities. Any credit-related impairment relatedloss is charged to fixed maturity securities thatnet income (loss) and included in net investment gains (losses). If the Company does not intend to sell or iswill not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, an allowance for expected credit losses is established and the portion of their amortized cost basisthe loss relating to credit factors is recorded in net income (loss). The non-credit impairment amount of the loss (which could be related to interest rates and/or market conditions) is recognized in net income, withother comprehensive income.
To estimate the non-creditallowance for expected credit losses for most of the AFS securities, the Company analyzes projected cash flows which are primarily driven by assumptions regarding loss severity, probability of default and projected recovery rates. The Company's determination of default and loss severity rates are based on credit rating, credit analysis and macroeconomic forecasts. Unrealized losses on securities issued or backed, either explicitly or implicitly by the U.S. government are not analyzed for credit losses. The Company has concluded that any possibility of a credit loss on these securities is highly unlikely due to the explicit U.S. government guarantee related to certain securities (e.g., Government National Mortgage Association issuances) and the implicit guarantee related to other securities that has been validated by past actions (e.g., U.S. government bailout of Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation during the 2008 credit crisis). Although these securities are not analyzed for credit losses, they are evaluated for impairment recognized in comprehensive income.based on the Company's intention to sell and likely requirement to sell.
Based on the Company's analysis ourat June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, the Company did not recognize any impairment on its AFS fixed maturity portfolio is of high credit quality and we believesecurities as the Company expects the amortized cost basis of the securities will ultimately be recovered.recovered based on projected cash flows as the related securities approach maturity. The Company continually monitorscontinues to monitor the credit quality of the fixed maturity investmentsAFS securities to assess if it is probable that it will receive contractual or estimated cash flows in the form of principal and interest. ThereTherefore, as the unrealized losses were due to non-credit factors, there was no impairmentallowance recorded for expected credit losses on AFS securities for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The equity method investments above include limited partnerships which are variable interests issued by variable interest entities ("VIEs"). The Company does not have the power to direct the activities that are most significant to the economic performance of these VIEs, therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs. The Company is deemed to have limited influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee and accordingly, these investments are reported under the equity method of accounting. In applying the equity method of accounting, the investments are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently adjusted based on the Company’s proportionate share of the investee's net income or loss. Generally, the maximum exposure to loss on these interests is limited to the amount of commitment made by the Company as more fully described in "Note 11 - Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees" in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
(a) Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements — Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820") defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between open market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Because valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment. Examples of assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include: U.S. Treasury bonds; and publicly traded equity securities;
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable (e.g. interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severity, etc.) or can be corroborated by observable market data. Examples of assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include: U.S. government-sponsored agency securities; non-U.S. government and supranational obligations; commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"); collateralized loan obligations ("CLO"); corporate and municipal bonds; and
Level 3 — Valuations based on models where significant inputs are not observable. The unobservable inputs reflect our own assumptions about assumptions that market participants would use developed on the basis of the best information available in the particular circumstances. Examples of assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include: an investment in preference shares of a start-up insurance producer.
The availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires significantly more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by management in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in the Level 3 hierarchy.
The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as at the measurement date. In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified between hierarchy levels.
For investments that have quoted market prices in active markets, the Company uses the quoted market prices as fair value and includes these in the Level 1 hierarchy. The Company receives the quoted market prices from a third party nationally recognized provider ("the Pricing Service"). When quoted market prices are unavailable, the Company utilizes the Pricing Service to determine an estimate of fair value. The fair value estimates are included in the Level 2 hierarchy. The Company will challenge any prices for its investments which are considered not to be representative of fair value.
If quoted market prices and an estimate from the Pricing Service are unavailable, the Company produces an estimate of fair value based on dealer quotations for recent activity in positions with the same or similar characteristics to that being valued. The Company determines whether the fair value estimate is in the Level 2 or Level 3 hierarchy depending on the level of observable inputs available when estimating the fair value. The Company bases its estimates of fair values for assets on the bid price as it represents what a third party market participant would be willing to pay in an orderly transaction.

The fair values of U.S. treasury bonds are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and are included in the Level 1 fair value hierarchy. We believe the market for U.S. treasury bonds is an actively traded market given the high level of daily trading volume. The fair values of U.S. agency bonds are determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. As the yields for the risk-free yield curve and the spreads for these securities are observable market inputs, the fair values of U.S. agency bonds are included in the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
Non-U.S. government bonds — These securities are generally priced by independent pricing services. The Pricing Service may use current market trades for securities with similar quality, maturity and coupon. If no such trades are available, the Pricing Service typically uses analytical models which may incorporate spreads, interest rate data and market/sector news. As the significant inputs used to price non-U.S. government bonds are observable market inputs, the fair values of non-U.S. government bonds are included in the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
Collateralized loan obligations ("CLO") - These asset backed securities are originated by a variety of financial institutions that on acquisition are rated BBB-/Baa3 or higher. These securities are priced by independent pricing services and brokers. The pricing provider applies dealer quotes and other available trade information, prepayment speeds, yield curves and credit spreads to the valuation. As the significant inputs used to price the CLO are observable market inputs, the fair values are included in the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
Commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") - These asset backed securities are originated by a variety of financial institutions that on acquisition are rated BBB-/Baa3 or higher. These securities are priced by independent pricing services and brokers. The pricing provider applies dealer quotes and other available trade information, prepayment speeds, yield curves and credit spreads to the valuation. As the significant inputs used to price the CMBS are observable market inputs, the fair values are included in the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
Corporate and municipal bonds — Bonds issued by corporations, U.S. state and municipality entities or agencies that on acquisition are rated BBB-/Baa3 or higher. These securities are generally priced by independent pricing services. The credit spreads are sourced from broker/dealers, trade prices and new issue market. Where pricing is unavailable from pricing services, custodian pricing or non-binding quotes are obtained from broker-dealers to estimate fair values. As significant inputs used to price corporate and municipal bonds are observable market inputs, fair values are included in the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
Equity securities - Equity securities include publicly traded common and preferred stocks, and privately held common and preferred stocks. The fair value of publicly traded common and preferred stocks is primarily priced by pricing services, reflecting the closing price quoted for the final trading day of the period. These investments are carried at fair value using observable market pricing data and is included in the Level 1 fair value hierarchy. Any unrealized gains or losses on the investment is recorded in net income in the reporting period in which it occurs. The privately held common and preferred stocks are valued using significant inputs that are unobservable where there is little or no market activity. Unadjusted third party pricing sources or management's assumptions and internal valuation models may be used to determine the fair values, therefore, these investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Other investments — Includes unquoted investments comprised of the following types of investments:
Privately held investments: These are direct equity investments in common and preferred shares of privately held entities. The fair values are estimated using quarterly financial statements and/or recent private market transactions and thus are included under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to unobservable market data used for valuation.
Private credit funds: These are privately held equity investments in common stock of entities that lend money valued using the most recently available or quarterly net asset value ("NAV") statements as provided by the external fund manager or third-party administrator and therefore measured using the NAV as a practical expedient.
Private equity funds: These are comprised of private equity funds, private equity co-investments with sponsoring entities and investments in real estate limited partnerships and joint ventures. The fair value is estimated based on the most recently available NAV as advised by the external fund manager or third-party administrator. The fair values are therefore measured using the NAV as a practical expedient.
Derivative Instruments - The Company has recently entered into reinsurance contracts that are accounted for as derivatives. These reinsurance contracts provide indemnification to an insured or cedant as a result of a change in a variable as opposed to an identifiable insurable event. The Company considers these contracts to be part of its underwriting operations. The derivatives are initially valued at cost which approximates fair value. In subsequent measurement periods, the fair values of these derivatives are determined using internally developed discounted cash flow models using appropriate discount rates. The selection of an appropriate discount rate is judgmental and is the most significant unobservable input used in the valuation of these derivatives. The fair value changes in underwriting-related derivative instruments is included within other insurance revenue (expense), net.

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The derivative liability on retroactive reinsurance is presented as part of accrued expenses and other liabilities. A significant increase (decrease) in this input in isolation couldmay result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement for the derivative contract. As the significant inputs used to price these derivatives are unobservable, the fair values of these contracts are classified as Level 3.

(b) Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company’s estimates of fair value for financial assets and financial liabilities are based on the framework established in ASC 820. The framework is based on the inputs used in valuation and gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and requires that observable inputs be used in the valuation methodology whenever available. In determining the level of the hierarchy in which the estimate is disclosed, the highest priority is given to unadjusted quoted prices in active trading markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs that reflect significant market assumptions.
At SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company classified its financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the following valuation hierarchy:

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The Company utilizes the Pricing Service to assist in determining the fair value of its investments; however, management is ultimately responsible for all fair values presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This includes responsibility for monitoring the fair value process, ensuring objective and reliable valuation practices, and pricing of assets and liabilities and use of pricing sources. The Company analyzes and reviews the information and prices received from the Pricing Service to ensure that the prices provided represent a reasonable estimate of fair value.
The Pricing Service was utilized to estimate fair value measurements for 98.8%98.2% and 99.0%98.5% of our fixed maturities at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. The Pricing Service utilizes market quotations for fixed maturity securities that have quoted market prices in active markets. Since fixed maturities other than U.S. treasury bonds generally do not trade actively on a daily basis, the Pricing Service prepares estimates of fair value measurements using relevant market data, benchmark curves, sector groupings and matrix pricing and these have been classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Any changes to the financial information provided by the investee could result in a significantly higher or lower valuation at the reporting date. The fair value of underwriting-related derivative instruments areis determined using a discounted cash flow model in which the Company examines current market conditions, historical results as well as contract specific information that may impact future cash flows in order to assess the reasonableness of inputs used in the valuation model. model. Due to significant unobservable inputs in these valuations, the Company classifies the fair values as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.hierarchy

8. Reinsurance
The Company uses reinsurance and retrocessional agreements ("ceded reinsurance") to mitigate volatility, reduce its exposure to certain risks and provide capital support. Ceded reinsurance provides for the recovery of a portion of loss and LAE under certain circumstances without relieving the Company of its obligations to the policyholders. The Company remains liable to the extent that any of its reinsurers or retrocessionaires fails to meet their obligations. Loss and LAE incurred and premiums earned are reported after deduction for ceded reinsurance. In the event that one or more of our reinsurers or retrocessionaires are unable to meet their obligations under these agreements, the Company would not realize the full value of the reinsurance recoverable balances.
The effect of ceded reinsurance on net premiums written and earned and on net loss and LAE for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 20212022 was as follows:

On December 27, 2018, Cavello Bay Reinsurance Limited ("Cavello") and Maiden Reinsurance entered into a retrocession agreement pursuant to which certain assets and liabilities associated with the U.S. treaty reinsurance business held by Maiden Reinsurance were 100.0% retroceded to Cavello in exchange for a ceding commission. The reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses due from Cavello under this retrocession agreement was $67,181$54,880 at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 (December 31, 20212022 - $69,006)$60,112). The recoverable due from Cavello is net of an allowance for expected credit losses of $4,008 as at June 30, 2023.
On July 31, 2019, Maiden Reinsurance and Cavello entered into a Loss Portfolio Transfer and Adverse Development Cover Agreement ("LPT/ADC Agreement") pursuant to which Cavello assumed the loss reserves as of December 31, 2018 associated with the AmTrust Quota Share in excess of a $2,178,535 retention up to $600,000, in exchange for a retrocession premium of $445,000. The $2,178,535 retention is subject to adjustment for paid losses subsequent to December 31, 2018. The LPT/ADC Agreement provides Maiden Reinsurance with $155,000 in adverse development cover over its carried AmTrust Quota Share loss reserves at December 31, 2018. The LPT/ADC Agreement meets the criteria for risk transfer and is thus accounted for as retroactive reinsurance. Cumulative ceded losses exceeding $445,000 are recognized as a deferred gain liability and amortized into income over the settlement period of the ceded reserves in proportion to cumulative losses collected over the estimated ultimate reinsurance recoverable.

8. Reinsurance (continued)
The amount of the deferral is recalculated each period based on loss payments and updated estimates. Consequently, cumulative adverse development subsequent to December 31, 2018 may result in significant losses from operations until periods when the deferred gain is recognized as a benefit to earnings.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses under the LPT/ADC Agreement was $480,138$502,195 while the deferred gain liability under the LPT/ADC Agreement was $35,138$57,708 (December 31, 20212022 - $490,860$490,408 and $45,860,$45,408, respectively). The recoverable due under the LPT/ADC Agreement is net of an allowance for expected credit losses of $513 as at June 30, 2023. Amortization of the deferred gain will not occur until paid losses have exceeded the minimum retention under the LPT/ADC Agreement, which is estimated to be in 2025.
Cavello provided collateral in the form of a letter of credit in the amount of $445,000 to AmTrust under the LPT/ADC Agreement. Cavello is subject to additional collateral funding requirements as explained in "Note 10. Related Party Transactions". As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the amount of collateral required was $424,588.$471,636. Under the terms of the LPT/ADC Agreement, the covered losses associated with the Commutation and Release Agreement with AmTrust are eligible to be covered but recoverable only when such losses are paid or settled by AII or its affiliates, provided such losses and other related amounts shall not exceed $312,786. Cavello's parent company, Enstar, has credit ratings of BBB from both Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings at SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.

9. Reserve for Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses
The Company uses both historical experience and industry-wide loss development factors to provide a reasonable basis for estimating future losses. In the future, certain events may be beyond the control of management, such as changes in law, judicial interpretations of law, and rates of inflation, which may favorably or unfavorably impact the ultimate settlement of the Company’s loss and LAE reserves.
The anticipated effect of inflation is implicitly considered when estimating liabilities for loss and LAE. While anticipated changes in claim costs due to inflation are considered in estimating the ultimate claim costs, changes in the average severity of claims are caused by a number of factors that vary with the individual type of policy written. Ultimate losses are projected based on historical trends adjusted for implemented changes in underwriting standards, claims handling, policy provisions, and general economic trends. Those anticipated trends are monitored based on actual development and are modified if necessary.
The reserving process begins with the collection and analysis of paid losses and incurred claims data for each of the Company's contracts. While reserves are mostly reviewed on a contract by contract basis, paid loss and incurred claims data is also aggregated into reserving segments. The segmental data is disaggregated by reserving class and further disaggregated by either accident year (i.e. the year in which the loss event occurred) or by underwriting year (i.e. the year in which the contract generating the premium and losses incepted). In cases where the Company uses underwriting year information, reserves are subsequently allocated to the respective accident year. The reserve for loss and LAE consists of:

Prior period development arises from changes to loss estimates recognized in the current year that relate to loss reserves established in previous calendar years. The favorable or unfavorable development reflects changes in management's best estimate of the ultimate losses under the relevant reinsurance policies after considerable review of changes in actuarial assessments. The Company recognized net adverse prior year loss development of $8344,494 and $8,150 for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023, respectively (2022 - adverse $958 and favorable prior year loss development of $5,493 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (2021 - favorable $5,352 and $23,713,$6,327, respectively).

Pursuant to the terms of the LPT/ADC Agreement, Maiden Reinsurance, Cavello and AmTrust and certain of its affiliated companies entered into a Master Collateral Agreement (“MCA”) to define and enable the operation of collateral provided under the AmTrust Quota Share. Under the MCA, Cavello provided letters of credit on behalf of Maiden Reinsurance to AmTrust in an amount representing Cavello’s obligations under the LPT/ADC Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of Post Termination Endorsement No. 2, the funding percentage was reduced to 107.5% during the first quarter of 2023.
Pursuant to the terms of Post Termination Endorsement No. 1 to the European Hospital Liability Quota Share, Maiden Reinsurance strengthened the collateral protection provided by Maiden Reinsurance to AEL and AIU DAC by increasing the required funding percentage for Maiden Reinsurance under the collateral arrangements between the parties to the greater of 120% of the Exposure (as defined therein) and the amount of security required to offset the increase in the Solvency Capital Requirement (“SCR”) that results from the changes in the SCR which arise out of Maiden Reinsurance's re-domestication as compared to the SCR calculation if Maiden Reinsurance had remained domesticated in a Solvency II equivalent jurisdiction with a solvency ratio above 100% and provided collateral equivalent to 100% of the Exposure.

In certain of these joint ventures, the Company has provided certain indemnities, guarantees and commitments to certain parties such that it may be required to make payments now or in the future.
Any loss for which the Company could be liable would be contingent on the default of a loan by the real estate joint venture entity for which the Company provided a financial guarantee to a lender. While the Company has committed to aggregate limits as to the amount of guarantees it will provide as part of its limited partnerships, guarantees are only provided on an individual transaction basis and are subject to the terms and conditions of each transaction mutually agreed by the parties involved. The Company is not bound to such guarantees without its express authorization.
As discussed above, at SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, guarantees of $41,302$43,135 (December 31, 20212022 - $33,305)$42,141) were provided to lenders by the Company on behalf of real estate joint ventures, however, the likelihood of the Company incurring any losses pertaining to project level financing guarantees was determined to be remote. Therefore, no liability has been accrued under ASC 450-20.
c)Operating Lease Commitments
The Company leases office spaces housing, officeand equipment and company vehicles under various operating leases expiring in various years through 2024.2025. The Company's leases are currently classified as operating leases and none of them have non-lease components. For operating leases that have a lease term of more than twelve months, and whose lease payments are above a certain threshold, the Company recognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the present value of the remaining lease payments until expiration.
As the lease contracts generally do not provide an implicit discount rate, the Company used the weighted-average discount rate of 10%, representing its secured incremental borrowing rate, in calculating the present value of the lease liability. At June 30, 2023, the Company's future lease obligations of $329 (December 31, 2022 - $300) were calculated based on the present value of future annual rental commitments excluding taxes, insurance and other operating costs for non-cancellable operating leases discounted using its secured incremental borrowing rate. This amount of $328 is recordedhas been recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as a lease liability within accrued expenses and other liabilities with an equivalent amount for the right-of-use asset presented as part of other assets at September 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - $473).
The Company has made an accounting policy election not to include renewal, termination, or purchase options that are not reasonably certain of exercise when determining the term of the borrowing. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.The Company's weighted-average remaining lease term is approximately 2.11.6 years at SeptemberJune 30, 2022. 2023. 
Under Topic 842, Leases, the Company continues to recognize the related leasing expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's total lease expense was $135 and $255 for three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively (2022 - $82 and $159, respectively ) recognized within general and administrative expenses consistent with the prior accounting treatment under Topic 840.
d)Legal Proceedings
Except as noted below, the Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings. From time to time, the Company is subject to routine legal proceedings, including arbitration, arising in the ordinary course of business. These legal proceedings generally relate to claims asserted by or against the Company in the ordinary course of insurance or reinsurance operations. Based on the Company's opinion, the eventual outcome of these legal proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
In April 2009, the Company learned that Bentzion S. Turin, the former Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel and Secretary of Maiden Holdings and Maiden Reinsurance, sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Labor claiming that his employment with the Company was terminated in retaliation for corporate whistle-blowing in violation of the whistle-blower protection provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Mr. Turin alleged that he was terminated for raising concerns regarding corporate governance with respect to the negotiation of the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities Offering. He seeks reinstatement as Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel and Secretary of Maiden Holdings and Maiden Reinsurance, back pay and legal fees incurred. On December 31, 2009, the U.S. Secretary of Labor found no reasonable cause for Mr. Turin’s claim and dismissed the complaint in its entirety. Mr. Turin objected to the Secretary's findings and requested a hearing before an administrative law judge in the U.S. Department of Labor. The Company moved to dismiss Mr. Turin's complaint, and its motion was granted by the Administrative Law Judge on June 30, 2011. On July 13, 2011, Mr. Turin filed a petition for review of the Administrative Law Judge's decision with the Administrative Review Board in the U.S. Department of Labor. On March 29, 2013, the Administrative Review Board reversed the dismissal of the complaint on procedural grounds, and remanded the case to the administrative law judge.

11. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees (continued)
A putative class action complaint was filed against Maiden Holdings, Arturo M. Raschbaum, Karen L. Schmitt, and John M. Marshaleck in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on February 11, 2019. On February 19, 2020, the Court appointed lead plaintiffs, and on May 1, 2020, lead plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint (the “Amended Complaint”).The Amended Complaint asserts violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 (and Section 20(a) for control person liability) arising in large part from allegations that Maiden failed to take adequate loss reserves in connection with reinsurance provided to AmTrust. Plaintiffs further claim that certain of Maiden Holdings’ representations concerning its business, underwriting and financial statements were rendered false by the allegedly inadequate loss reserves, that these misrepresentations inflated the price of Maiden Holdings' common stock, and that when the truth about the misrepresentations was revealed, the Company’s stock price fell, causing Plaintiffs to incur losses. On September 11, 2020, a motion to dismiss was filed on behalf of all Defendants. On August 6, 2021, the Court issued an order denying, in part, Defendants’ motion to dismiss, ordering Plaintiffs to file a shorter amended complaint no later than August 20, 2021, and permitting discovery to proceed on a limited basis. On February 7, 2023, the District Court denied Plaintiffs’ motion for reconsideration of the District Court’s decision denying Plaintiffs’ objection to the Magistrate Judge’s December 2021 ruling on discovery. The Company expects to file a dispositive motion in the near future. We believe the claims are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves. It is possible that additional lawsuits will be filed against the Company, its subsidiaries and its respective officers due to the diminution in value of our securities as a result of our operating results and financial condition. It is currently uncertain as to the effect of such litigation on our business, operating results and financial condition.

13. Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $91$194 and income tax expense of $451$222 for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, respectively, compared to an income tax benefit of $155$713 and $363income tax expense of $542 for the same respective periods in 2021.2022. The effective tax rate on the Company's net loss differs from the statutory rate of zero percent under Bermuda law due to tax on foreign operations, primarily the U.S. and Sweden.
A valuation allowance has been established against the net U.S. deferred tax assets which are primarily attributable to net operating losses and discounting of loss reserves for tax purposes. At this time, the Company believes it is necessary to establish a full valuation allowance against the U.S. net deferred tax assets due to insufficient positiveas more evidence is needed regarding the utilization of these tax benefits in the future.

14. Subsequent Events

Exchange of Preference Shares for Common Shares
On November 9, 2022, the Company announced its intention to exchange all of the Company’s outstanding 8.250% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares Series A (the “Series A Preference Shares”), 7.125% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares Series C (the “Series C Preference Shares”) and 6.700% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares Series D (the “Series D Preference Shares” and, together with the Series A Preference Shares and the Series C Preference Shares, the “Preference Shares”) for shares of Maiden’s common shares, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Shares”), subject to the terms of the certificate of designations for each of the Preference Shares, as amended (the "Exchange"). The Exchange requires that the terms of each of the Preference Shares be varied and any such variation will require the affirmative vote of holders of two-thirds of the issued shares of each series of the Preference Shares. Maiden Reinsurance, which currently owns more than 73% of each series of the Preference Shares, has indicated it will consent to the variations for each of the series of Preference Shares in order to effectuate the Exchange. The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) established a special committee consisting solely of disinterested and independent directors (the “Special Committee”) for the purpose of evaluating and, if appropriate, negotiating and approving potential amendments to the certificates of designations for each series of Preference Shares in order to effectuate the Exchange. Advised by its own financial and legal advisors, the Special Committee unanimously approved an exchange ratio of three Common Shares per Preference Share of each series for record holders of the Preference Shares. The Board has also approved the amendments to the certificates of designations for each series of Preference Shares, and the Exchange. Under the proposed terms of the Exchange, holders of Preference Shares at the time of the Exchange will receive Common Shares having a fair value that meets the “Minimum Price” as determined in accordance with the rules of NASDAQ and as will be described in an information statement that Maiden will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and will distribute to preference shareholders (the “Information Statement”). Specifically, holders of Preference Shares of each series will receive, for each Preference Share held, three Common Shares, with the value of each Preference Share so exchanged being equal to three times the price that is the lower of: (i) the closing price of the Common Shares (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the date of the Exchange; and (ii) the average closing price of the Common Shares (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Exchange. As a result of the Exchange, the Preference Shares will no longer trade on the New York Stock Exchange, and no Preference Shares will be issued or outstanding. All rights of the former holders related to ownership of the Preference Shares will terminate.
Upon completion of the Exchange, it is expected that Maiden Reinsurance will own approximately 29% of the Common Shares as of the date of the Exchange as described above, which Common Shares will be eliminated for accounting and financial reporting purposes on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.Maiden Reinsurance's voting power, with respect to its Common Shares will be capped at 9.5% under the terms of the bye-laws of the Company.
The Exchange and the ownership of the Common Shares by Maiden Reinsurance is being made in compliance with Maiden Reinsurance's investment policy which has been approved by the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation.
As a result of the Exchange, Maiden estimates that its book value per Common Share will increase by approximately $0.82 per Common Share, subject to the determination of the final value of the Preference Shares and the exchange price of the Common Shares.Maiden expects to complete the transaction on or before December 31, 2022 and will notify holders of the exchange date when determined.

Overview
Maiden Holdings is a Bermuda-based holding company. We create shareholder value by actively managing and allocating our assets and capital, including through ownership and management of businesses and assets mostly in the insurance and related financial services industries where we can leverage our deep knowledge of those markets. We also provide a full range of legacy services to small insurance companies, particularly those in run-off or with blocks of reserves that are no longer core, working with clients to develop and implement finality solutions including acquiring entire companies that enable our clients to meet their capital and risk management objectives. We expect our legacy solutions business to contribute to our active asset and capital management strategies.
We are not currently underwriting reinsurance business on new prospective risks but are actively underwriting risks on a retroactive basis through Genesis Legacy Solutions ("GLS"). We also have various historic reinsurance programs underwritten by Maiden Reinsurance Ltd. ("Maiden Reinsurance") which are in run-off, including the liabilities associated with AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. ("AmTrust") which we terminated in 2019 as discussed in "Note 10. Related Party Agreements" of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I Item 1. "Financial Information". In addition, we have a Loss Portfolio Transfer and Adverse Development Cover Agreement ("LPT/ADC Agreement") with Cavello Bay Reinsurance Limited ("Cavello") and a commutation agreement that further reduces our exposure to and limits the potential volatility related to our AmTrust liabilities in run-off, as discussed in "Note 8. Reinsurance" of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I Item 1. "Financial Information".
Short-term income protection business is written on a primary basis by our wholly owned subsidiaries Maiden Life Försäkrings AB ("Maiden LF") and Maiden General Försäkrings AB ("Maiden GF") in the Scandinavian and Northern European markets. Insurance support services are provided to Maiden LF and Maiden GF through our wholly owned subsidiary, Maiden Global Holdings, Ltd. ("Maiden Global") which is also a licensed intermediary in the United Kingdom. Maiden Global had previously operated internationally by providing branded auto and credit life insurance products through insurer partners, particularly those in Europe and other global markets. These products also produced reinsurance programs which were underwritten by our wholly owned subsidiary Maiden Reinsurance Ltd. ("Reinsurance. During 2023, we are evaluating the strategic value of Maiden Reinsurance").
LF and Maiden GF in relation to their ongoing growth and profitability prospects, regulatory capital requirements and ability to create shareholder value in excess of our target return on capital levels. We are not currently underwriting reinsurance business on new prospective risks but are actively underwriting risks on a retroactive basis through Genesis Legacy Solutions ("GLS"). We also have various historic reinsurance programs underwritten by Maiden Reinsurance which are in run-off, includingexpect to continue this evaluation during the liabilities associated with AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. ("AmTrust") which we terminated in 2019 as discussed in "Note 10. Related Party Agreements"second half of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I Item 1. "Financial Information". In addition, we have a Loss Portfolio Transfer and Adverse Development Cover Agreement ("LPT/ADC Agreement") with Cavello Bay Reinsurance Limited ("Cavello") and a commutation agreement that further reduces our exposure to and limits the potential volatility related to these AmTrust liabilities in run-off, as discussed in "Note 8. Reinsurance" of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I Item 1. "Financial Information".2023.
Our business currently consists of two reportable segments: Diversified Reinsurance and AmTrust Reinsurance. Our Diversified Reinsurance segment consists of a portfolio of predominantly property and casualty reinsurance business focusing on regional and specialty property and casualty insurance companies located primarily in Europe. This segment also includes transactions entered into by GLS which was formed in November 2020. Our AmTrust Reinsurance segment includes all business ceded to Maiden Reinsurance by AmTrust, primarily the quota share reinsurance agreement (“AmTrust Quota Share”) between Maiden Reinsurance and AmTrust’s wholly owned subsidiary, AmTrust International Insurance, Ltd. (“AII”) and the European hospital liability quota share reinsurance contract ("European Hospital Liability Quota Share") with AmTrust’s wholly owned subsidiaries, AmTrust Europe Limited ("AEL") and AmTrust International Underwriters DAC ("AIU DAC"), both of which are in run-off effective as of January 1, 2019.
Please refer to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section included under Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 that was filed on March 15, 2023 for further information on recent developments within the Company.
We believe Maiden Holdings North America, Ltd.'s ("Maiden NA") investments, including its ownership of Maiden Reinsurance and its active asset management strategy, will create opportunities to utilize net operating loss carry-forwards ("NOL") of $262.1 millionas of September 30, 2022. These NOL carryforwards, in combination with additional net deferred tax assets ("DTA") primarily related to our insurance liabilities result in a net U.S. DTA (before valuation allowance) of $120.8 million or $1.39 per common share at September 30, 2022.
These net DTA are not presently recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as a full valuation allowance is carried against them. At this time, while positive evidence in support of reducing the valuation allowance is accumulating, the Company believes it is necessary to maintain its full valuation allowance against the net U.S. DTA due to insufficient accumulation of evidence at this time regarding the utilization of these losses. As our profitability continues to improve, we will continuously evaluate the amount of the valuation allowance held against the net U.S. DTA.
For further details, please see "Note 13. Income Taxes" included under Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Taken together, we believe these measures should generate additional income for Maiden NA in a tax-efficient manner, while sharing in the improvement in profitability anticipated in Maiden Reinsurance as a result of the measures enacted as described above.
Business Strategy
We continued to deploy our revised operating strategy during 20222023 which leverages the significant assets and capital we retain. In addition to restoring operating profitability, our strategic focus centers on creating the greatest risk-adjusted shareholder returns in order to increase book value for our common shareholders, both near and long-term. We also believe that these areas of strategic focus will enhance our profitability through increased returns, which should also increase the likelihood of fully utilizing the significant net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards as described further below which would create additional common shareholder value.
This strategy presently has three principal areas of focus:
Asset management - investing in assets and asset classes in a prudent but expansive manner in order to maximize investment returns and is principally enabled by limiting the amount of insurance risk we assume in relation to the assets we hold and maintaining required regulatory capital at very strong levels to manage our aggregate risk profile;
Legacy underwriting - judiciously building a portfolio of legacy run-off acquisitions and retroactive reinsurance transactions which we believe will produce attractive underwriting returns; and
Capital management - effectively managing the capital we hold on our balance sheet and when appropriate, repurchasing securities or returning capital to enhance common shareholder returns.
37


As our insurance liabilities run-off and these strategies potentially develop along timelines longer than initially anticipated, we may allocate capital to other insurance activities that produce more consistent levels of revenue and profit as we seek to create longer-term shareholder value.
The returns expected to be produced by each pillarFor example, we have not engaged or pursued active reinsurance underwriting of new prospective risks as our strategy are evaluated in relation to our cost of debt capital, which carries a weighted average effective interest rate of 7.6%. To the extent our experience or belief indicates we cannot exceed the cost of debt capital over a reasonable long-term investment horizon, we expect to refrain from activities in those areas. As an example, our present assessment of the reinsurance marketplace along with our current operating profile continues to behas been that the risk-adjusted returns that may be produced via active reinsurancesuch underwriting of new prospective risks are likely to be lower over the long-term than our cost of capital. However, as interest rates have increased and moved towards historically observed levels, risk-adjusted returns for active reinsurance underwriting of new
38

prospective risks may become more attractive and while we have no immediate plans to resume such underwriting, we continue to evaluate if such a strategy would produce suitable value for shareholders.
Further, we continue to also evaluate our ongoing activities in insurance distribution. To date, our insurance distribution investments have achieved an internal rate of return of 28.3% and a multiple of capital of 1.45x on those investments.
As part of our ongoing evaluation of both the insurance and reinsurance marketplace and the ability of both the distribution and the reinsurance markets to increase our current income, we increasingly believe expansion of those strategies may be appropriate. We are exploring distribution opportunities which are non-risk bearing and capital efficient and given ongoing changes in reinsurance markets, can be potentially complemented by limited and selective deployment of reinsurance capacity to supplement those activities and enhance returns to shareholders.
The measures implemented in recent years have allowed us to more flexibly allocate capital to those activities most likely to produce the greatest returns for shareholders, and we are actively engaged in evaluating and deploying funds in all pillars of the strategies as discussed herein. We also believe
The returns expected to be produced by each pillar of our strategy are primarily evaluated in relation to our cost of debt capital, which carries a weighted average effective interest rate of 7.6%. To the extent our experience or belief indicates we cannot exceed the cost of debt capital, we expect to refrain from activities in those areas.
Our ability to execute our asset and capital management initiatives is dependent on maintaining adequate levels of unrestricted liquidity and cash flows. Further, there can be no assurance that these areas of strategic focusour insurance liabilities will enhance our profitability through increased returns,run-off at levels that will permit further capital management activities, which we believe also increasecontinually review as part of our strategy. Please refer to the likelihood of fully utilizing the significant NOL carryforwards described above which would create additional common shareholder value. "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section for further information on our asset and capital management activities.
Asset Management
As part of our expanded asset management activities, as noted we have evaluated and continue to consider investing in various initiatives in the insurance industry across a variety of segments which we believe will produce appropriate risk-adjusted returns while maintaining the option to consider underwriting activities in the future. We believe these expanded activities will produce a broad range of positive impacts on our financial condition, including current income, longer-term gains and in certain instances, fee income.
In recent years, we have invested approximately $263.6$268.6 million into alternative investments which include equity securities, other investments and equity method investments in a wide variety of asset classes and we believe these activities will exceed that benchmark cost of capital with adjustments as necessary if those returns do not emerge.
Recent development and trends in financial markets, particularly the rapid rise in interest rates and heightened risk of economic recession, indicate that it may take longer than expected to achieve those returns and we expect that to factor into future capital allocation decisions. In particular, as interest rates have risen to more historically observed levels, we have focused on investing in assets that produce higher levels of current income as opposed to longer-term gains, in order to increase returns to shareholders and increase the opportunity to recognize our deferred tax assets discussed below.
Legacy Underwriting
In November 2020, we formed GLS which specializes in providing a full range of legacy services to small insurance entities, particularly those in run-off or with blocks of reserves that are no longer core, working with clients to develop and implement finality solutions including acquiring entire companies that enable our clients to meet their capital and risk management objectives. We acquire legacy liabilities and (re)insurance reserves from companies and provide retroactive reinsurance coverage for portfolios of (re)insurance business, primarily via loss portfolio transfer contracts (“LPT”). Additionally, we provide reinsurance contracts to other (re)insurers to mitigate some of their risk of future adverse development (adverse(an adverse development cover, or “ADC”) on insurance risks relating to prior accident years.
We believe the formation of GLS is highly complementary to our overall longer-term strategy and will produce risk-adjusted returns in excess of our debt cost of capital. In addition, while we anticipate profitable growth from the GLS portfolio as it develops, we expect our required capital to continue to decline as insurance risk incurred by GLS will be more than offset by the run-off of insurance liabilities from our prior reinsurance strategies. GLS, along with other recent insurance industry investments, enables us to leverage our knowledge base while not re-entering active underwriting of new prospective risks and maintaining an efficient operating profile. We believe GLS not only enhances our profitability through both fee income and effective claims management services, but it will also increase our asset base through the addition of blocks of reserves or companies that can be successfully wound down.
Effective October 1, 2021, GLS completed its first loss portfolio transfer transaction which includesincluded an ADC cover. GLS and its subsidiaries have completed additional transactions in 2022 and as of September 30, 2022, GLS and its subsidiaries have insurance related liabilities totaling $29.5 million which included total reserves of $16.3 million, derivative liability on retroactive reinsurance of $9.0 million, and deferred gains on retroactive reinsurance of $4.1 million. GLS continues to write additional retroactive reinsurance transactions consistent with its business plan. In addition to producing long-term returns that may exceed the target cost of capital, we expect the business produced through GLS should further enhance our ability to pursue the asset and capital management pillars of our business strategy. The nature of GLS business plan is that it may take a sustained period of growth in insurance liabilities to produce the targeted returns. In addition, early stage initiatives such as GLS may take a period of time to reach profitability. Finally, the nature of legacy transactions which GLS seeks to execute may be inconsistent as to their timing and not predictable as regards how many transactions may be completed in any fiscal period. As of June 30, 2023, GLS and its subsidiaries hold insurance related liabilities of $27.8 million including total reserves of $21.5 million, an underwriting-related derivative liability of $4.0 million, and net deferred gains on retroactive reinsurance of $2.3 million.

Capital Management
Our capital management strategy is significantly informed by the required capital needed to operate our business in a prudent manner and our ongoing analysis of our loss development trends. Recent trends continue to increaseTrends in recent years have increased our confidence in our recorded ultimate losses for our insurance liabilities in run-off, however a prudent assessment dictates that the run-off portfolio still requires additional maturity to fully emerge.emerge, as evidenced by the adverse loss development we have experienced in 2022 and 2023. While there is no guaranteeassurance that these recentprior positive long-term loss development trends will persist,resume, as our confidence has increased it has enabled us to pursue continued capital management initiatives, primarilyinsurance liabilities further mature we remain confident that we can continue the prudent and disciplined repurchase of both our preferencecommon shares and senior notes which are authorized for repurchase, which we believe provideprovided the greatest risk-adjusted returns to our common shareholders. Our current assessment is that losses have continued to stabilize sufficiently to continue the capital management initiatives we initiated in 2020, although we have approached these strategies in a deliberate fashion.
On March 3, 2021 and May 6, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase, including the repurchase by Maiden Reinsurance in accordance with its investment guidelines, of up to $100.0 million and $50.0 million, respectively, of the Company's preference shares from time to time at market prices in open market purchases or as may be privately negotiated. The authorizations are collectively referred to as the "2021 Preference Share Repurchase Program". The Company has a remaining authorization of $3.9 million for preference share repurchases at September 30, 2022.
On November 9, 2022, subject to the terms and conditions of the preference shares including the affirmative vote of two-thirds of our preference shareholders, we announced our plans to exchange all outstanding preference shares for our common shares. As part of this transaction, we estimate that our book value per common share will increase by approximately $0.82 in the fourth quarter of 2022 subject to the determination of the final value of the preference shares and the exchange price of the common shares. Please refer to "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 14. Subsequent Events" 6 — Shareholders' Equity"under Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in Part I Item 1. "Financial Information"of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for further information.information on the common shares issued as part of the exchange for preference shares held by Maiden Reinsurance and other preference shareholders in 2022 ("Exchange").
Completion of the Exchange represented a significant milestone in our capital management plan and we continue to evaluate other capital management options that may be available to us, including repurchase of the Company's common shares and senior notes from time to time at market prices or as may be privately negotiated as approved by our Board in its respective authorizations. The Company expects to deploy its capital management strategy on a long-term and disciplined basis, balanced along with its other strategic initiatives.

Our ability to execute our asset and capital management initiatives is dependent on maintaining adequate levelsmade by Maiden Reinsurance during the second quarter of unrestricted liquidity and cash flows. Further,2023. However, there can be no assurance that we will continue to pursue such capital management initiatives, or that they will provide appropriate risk-adjusted returns.
Maiden Holdings North America ("Maiden NA")
We believe Maiden NA’s investments, including its ownership of Maiden Reinsurance and its active asset management strategy, will create opportunities to utilize NOL carryforwards of$295.9 million at June 30, 2023. The NOL carryforwards combined with additional net deferred tax assets ("DTA") primarily related to our insurance liabilities result in net U.S. DTA (before valuation allowance) of $119.3 million or $1.17 per common share at June 30, 2023.
Net U.S. DTA of $119.3 million is not presently recognized on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as a full valuation allowance is carried against it. At this time, while positive evidence in support of reducing the valuation allowance is growing, the Company believes it is necessary to maintain a full valuation allowance against the net U.S. DTA as more evidence is needed regarding the utilization of these losses. As circumstances further develop, we will run-off at levels that will permitcontinuously evaluate the amount of the valuation allowance held against the net U.S. DTA.
For further capital management activities, which we continually review as part of our strategy. Please refer to the details please see "Note 13 — Income Taxes"Liquidity included under Item 8 "Financial Statements and Capital Resources"Supplementary Data section" of the Annual Report on Form 10–K for further information on our asset and capital management activities,the year ended December 31, 2022. Taken together, we believe these measures should generate additional income for Maiden NA in particular our various preference share repurchase measures.a tax-efficient manner, while sharing in the improvement in profitability anticipated in Maiden Reinsurance as a result of the measures enacted as described above.

Key Financial Measures
In addition to our key financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's financial performance and the overall growth in value generated for the Company’s common shareholders. Management believes that these measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, explain the Company’s results to investors in a manner that allows for a more complete understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s business. The non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The calculation of these key financial measures including the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the nearest GAAP measure and relevant discussions are found within Item 2 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". These non-GAAP financial measures are:
Non-GAAP operating earnings (loss) and non-GAAP diluted operating earnings (loss) per common share: Management believes that the use of non-GAAP operating earnings and non-GAAP diluted operating earnings per common share enables investors and other users of the Company’s financial information to analyze its performance in a manner similar to how management analyzes performance. Management also believes that these measures generally follow industry practice therefore allowing the users of financial information to compare the Company’s performance with its industry peer group, and that the equity analysts and certain rating agencies which follow the Company, and the insurance industry as a whole, generally exclude these items from their analyses for the same reasons. Non-GAAP operating earnings should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income.
Non-GAAP operating earnings (loss) is an internal performance measure used by management as these measures focus on the underlying fundamentals of the Company's operations by excluding, on a recurring basis: (1) net realized investment gains or losses on investment;(losses); (2) foreign exchange and other gains or losses;(losses); (3) the portion of favorable or unfavorable prior year reserve development for which we have ceded the risk under the LPT/ADC Agreement;Agreement and related changes in amortization of the deferred gain liability; and (4) interest in income (loss) of equity method investments. We have excluded net realized investment gains on investment,(losses), interest in income (loss) of equity method investments and foreign exchange and other gains (losses) as we believe these are influenced by market opportunities and other factors. We do not believe that ceded risks under the LPT/ADC Agreement are representative of our ongoing and future business which are different to retroactive reinsurance risks written by GLS that are representative of our ongoing and future business. We believe all of these amounts are substantially independent of our business and any potential future underwriting process, and therefore including them would distort the analysis of underlying trends in our operations.
Underwriting income (loss) is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated as net premiums earned plus other insurance revenue less net loss and LAE, commission and other acquisition expenses and general and administrative expenses directly related to underwriting activities. For purposes of these non-GAAP operating measures, the fee-generating business which is included in our Diversified Reinsurance segment, is considered part of the underwriting operations of the Company. Management believes that this measure is important in evaluating the underwriting performance of the Company and its segments. This measure is also a useful tool to measure the profitability of the Company separately from the investment results and is also a widely used performance indicator in the insurance industry. A reconciliation of the Company's underwriting results can be found in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Note 3. Segment Information" included under Item 1. "Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Company no longer presents certain non-GAAP measures such as combined ratio and its related components in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, as it believes that as the run-off of our reinsurance portfolios progresses, such ratios are increasingly not meaningful and of less value to readers as they evaluate the financial results of the Company, particularly compared to historical data.
While an important metric of success, underwriting income (loss) does not reflect all components of profitability, as it does not recognize the impact of investment income earned on premiums between the time premiums are received and the time loss payments are ultimately paid to clients. Because we do not manage our cash and investments by segment, investment income and interest expense are not allocated to the reportable segments. Certain general and administrative expenses are generally allocated to segments based on actual costs incurred.
Non-GAAP Operating Return on Average Adjusted CommonShareholders' Equity ("Non-GAAP Operating ROACE"): Management uses non-GAAP operating return on average adjusted common shareholders' equity as a measure of profitability that focuses on the return to common shareholders. It is calculated using non-GAAP operating earnings (loss) available to common shareholders (as defined above) divided by average adjusted common shareholders' equity.
Book Value per Common Share and Diluted Book Value per Common Share: Book value per common share and diluted book value per common share are non-GAAP measures. Management uses growth in both of these metrics as a prime measure of the value we are generating for our common shareholders, because management believes that growth in each metric ultimately results in growth in the Company’s common share price. These metrics are impacted by the Company’s net income and external factors, such as interest rates, which can drive changes in unrealized gains or losses on our fixed income investment portfolio, as well as common or preference share repurchases.
Ratio of Debt to Total Capital Resources: Management uses this non-GAAP measure to monitor the financial leverage of the Company. This measure is calculated using the total principal amount of debt divided by the sum of total capital resources.
Non-GAAP underwriting income (loss) and Non-GAAP Net Loss and LAE: Management has further adjusted underwriting income (loss), as defined above, as well as reported net loss and LAE by excluding the portion of favorable or unfavorable prior year reserve development for which we have ceded the risk under retroactive reinsurance agreements such as the LPT/ADC Agreement. TheseThe losses are estimated to be fully recoverable from Cavello and management believes adjusting for this development shows the ultimate economic benefit of the LPT/ADC Agreement on our underwriting results. We believe
4143


We believe reflecting the economic benefit of this retroactive reinsurance agreement is helpful for understanding future trends in our operations.
Adjusted Total Shareholders' Equity, Adjusted Total Capital Resources, Ratio of Debt to Adjusted Total Capital Resources and Adjusted Book Value per Common Share: Management has adjusted GAAP shareholders' equity by adding the following items to shareholders' equity: 1)equity the unamortized deferred gain on ceded retroactive reinsurance under the LPT/ADC Agreement; and 2) an adjustment which reflects the equity method accounting related to the fair value of certain hedged liabilities within an equity method investment held by the Company wherein the ultimate realizable value of the asset supporting the hedged liabilities cannot currently be recognized at fair value ("LP Investment Adjustment").
Agreement. The unamortized deferred gain on ceded retroactive reinsurance under the LPT/ADC Agreement includes the aggregate impact of: 1) cumulative increases to losses incurred prior to December 31, 2018 for which we have ceded the risk under the LPT/ADC Agreement; and 2) changes in estimated ultimate losses for certain workers' compensation reserves previously commuted by the Company to AmTrust which are subject to specific terms and conditions pursuant to the LPT/ADC Agreement.
As a result, by virtue of this adjustment, management has also adjusted Total Capital Resources and computed the Ratio of Debt to Adjusted Capital Resources and Adjusted Book Value per Common Share. The deferred gain liability on retroactive reinsurance under the LPT/ADC Agreement represents loss reserves estimated to be fully recoverable from Cavello and management believes adjusting for this shows the ultimate economic benefit of the LPT/ADC Agreement. We believe reflecting the economic benefit of this non-recurring retroactive reinsurance agreement is helpful to understand future trends in our operations, which will improve the Company's shareholders' equity over the settlement or contract periods, respectively.
Alternative investments is the total of the Company's holdings of equity securities, other investments and equity method investments as reported on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Annualized average book yields increased to 4.2% and 4.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 2.0% and 1.9% for the same respective periods in 2022 due to the following factors:
33.9% of our fixed income investments as of June 30, 2023 are floating rate investments which enabled us to take advantage of a higher interest rate environment by reinvesting at higher yields more quickly;
higher crediting interest rate on our funds withheld balance with AmTrust which increased to 3.5% in 2023 from 2.1% in 2022, on an average ending balances of $319.2 million and $351.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively; and

Average aggregate fixed income assets of 26.0% and 29.0% for the three and nine months ended Septemberat June 30, 2023 decreased by 36.8% compared to June 30, 2022 respectively, was driven bydue to the continued run-off of reinsurance liabilities previously written on prospective risks, resulting in significant negative operating cash flows as we run-off our existing reinsurance liabilities.
Net investment income was helped by an increase in annualized average book yields to 2.2% and 2.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared to 1.9% and 1.9% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The Company's shorter duration on its fixed income portfolio as well as floating rate investments held enabled it to take advantage of the higher interest rate environment by reinvesting at higher yields more quickly.

This was driven by lower negative earned premium adjustments in the first half of 2023 compared to thesignificantly higher AmTrust Cession Adjustments made in the first half of 2022, largely due to negative premiums earned in Small Commercial Business policies which resulted in negative earned premiumsa corresponding decrease in commission costs and a reduction to brokerage fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Maiden Holdings is a holding company and transacts no business of its own. We therefore rely on cash flows in the form of dividends, advances, loans and other permitted distributions from our subsidiary companies to pay expenses and make dividend payments on our common and preference shares. The jurisdictions in which our operating subsidiaries are licensed to write business impose regulations requiring companies to maintain or meet statutory solvency and liquidity requirements and also place restrictions on the declaration and payment of dividends and other distributions.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the Company had investable assets of $1.4$1.06 billion compared to $1.7$1.24 billion as of December 31, 2021.2022. Investable assets are the combined total of our investments, cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash), loan to a related party and funds withheld receivable. The decrease in our investable assets is primarilydue to the result of our cessation of active reinsurance underwriting of new prospective risks in 2018 and 2019 which subsequently resultedresults in negative operating cash flows toas we settle claim payments from the run-off of the liabilities from thatour reinsurance portfolio in 2022.liabilities.
The regulatory and liquidity requirements of the Company's operating segments are discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section included under Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10- K for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, that was filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022.15, 2023.
As previously indicated, Maiden Reinsurance re-domesticated from Bermuda to Vermont on March 16, 2020. We continue to be actively engaged with the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation ("Vermont DFR") regarding the formulation of Maiden Reinsurance's longer term business plan, including its investment policy, changes to which require prior regulatory approval as stipulated by Vermont law or the Vermont DFR for any active underwriting, capital management or other strategic initiatives. Maiden Reinsurance has received all necessary approvals required to date by the Vermont DFR, including its activities via GLS and its investment policy which includes: 1) the expansion of approved asset classes for investment reflecting not only Maiden Reinsurance’s solvency position but the material reduction in required capital necessary to operate its business as discussed further in Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity & Capital Resources – Cash and Investments;business; and 2) the purchase of affiliated securities as demonstrated in the recentprevious preference share tender offers.offers and the recently completed Exchange. The Investment Policy, as approved and as amended, maintains our established investment management and governance practices.
During the second quarter ofIn 2022 and 2023, the Vermont DFR approved an annual dividend program to be paid by Maiden Reinsurance to Maiden NA, with notification to the Vermont DFR as dividends are paid. Subsequent to that approval, Maiden Reinsurance has paid $12.5$31.3 million in dividends to Maiden NA during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.with $6.3 million paid to Maiden NA on a quarterly basis since approval was granted.
We may experience continued volatility in our results of operations which could negatively impact our financial condition and create a reduction in the amount of available distribution or dividend capacity from our regulated reinsurance subsidiaries, which would also reduce liquidity. Further, we and our insurance subsidiaries may need additional capital to maintain compliance with regulatory capital requirements and/or be required to post additional collateral under existing reinsurance arrangements, which could reduce our liquidity.
Operating, investing and financing cash flows
Our sources of funds historically have consisted of premium receipts net of commissions and brokerage, investment income, net proceeds from capital raising activities, and proceeds from sales, maturities, pay downs and redemption of investments. Cash is currently used primarily to pay loss and LAE, ceded reinsurance premium, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense, with the remainder in excess of our operating requirements made available to our investment managers for investment in accordance with our investment policy as well as for capital management such as repurchasing our shares.
Our business has undergone significant changes since 2018. We have entered intoAs previously noted, we engaged in a series of transactions that have materially reduced our balance sheet risk and transformed our operations. As a result of these transactions, we are not presently engaged in any active underwriting of new prospective risksreinsurance business thus our net premiums written will continue to be materially lower and investment income will become a significantly larger portion of our total revenues. We are writing new retroactive risks through GLS, however this will be smaller in relation to the run-off of our prior reinsurance business. Despite the initial inflow of new business from GLS, the run-off of our prior reinsurance business has continued to cause significant negative operating cash flows as we run off the AmTrust Reinsurance segment reserves as shown in the cash flows table further below.
While the development of the GLS platform over time should further enhance our ability to pursue the asset and capital management pillars of our business strategy, we stillcontinue to expect thea trend of negative overall cash flows to continue to reduce our asset base going forward through the remainder of 20222023 and beyond.
We expect to use funds from cash and investment portfolios, collected premiums on reinsurance contracts in force or being run-off, investment income and proceeds from investment sales and redemptions to meet our expected claims payments and operational expenses. Claim payments will be principally from the run-off of existing reserves for loss and LAE. A significant portion of those liabilities are collateralized and claim payments will be funded by using this collateral which should provide sufficient funding to fulfill those obligations.
The Company’s management believes itsour current sources of liquidity are adequate to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve months as we generally expect negative operating cash flows to be sufficiently offset by positive investing cash flows. While we continue to expect our cash flows to be sufficient to meet our cash requirements and to operate our business, our ability to execute our asset and capital management initiatives are dependent on maintaining adequate levels of unrestricted liquidity and cash flows. Our expanded asset management strategy can be impacted by both investment specific and broader financial market conditions and may not produce the expected liquidity and cash flows these investments are designed to achieve, or the timing thereof may also be impacted by those factors.

Cash and Investments
TheHistorically, the investment of our funds hashad generally been designed to ensure safety of principal while generating current income. Accordingly, the majority of our funds havehad been invested in liquid, investment-grade fixed income securities which are all designated as AFS at SeptemberJune 30, 2022.2023.
As our insurance liabilities continue to run-off and the required capital to operate our business for regulatory purposes decreases, we have modified Maiden Reinsurance’s investment policy which has been approved by the Vermont DFR. Under this modified investment policy, we have expanded the range of asset classes we invest in to enhance the income and total returns our investment portfolio produces. We categorize these investments as alternative investments which include "Other Investments", "Equity Securities", and "Equity Method Investments" on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, our cash and investments consisted of:

In addition to the discussion on Cash and Cash Equivalents and Fixed Maturities that follows herein, please see the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Note 4. Investments" included under Part I Item 1 "Financial Information" of this Form 10-Q for further discussion on our AFS fixed income securities.
As our insurance liabilities continue to run-off and the required capital to operate our business for regulatory purposes decreases, we have modified Maiden Reinsurance’s investment policy (which has been approved by the Vermont DFR as noted) and have expanded the range of asset classes we invest in to enhance the income and total returns our investment portfolio produces. We categorize these investments as alternative investments which include "Other Investments", "Equity Securities", and "Equity Method Investments" as captioned on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Under this revised investment policy, we have increased the amount of alternative investments during 2022 and 2021,held, and we expect to continue to increase the amounts invested therein. Under our investment policy, alternative investments could include, but are not limited to, privately held investments, private equities, private credit lending funds, fixed-income funds, hedge funds, equity funds, real estate (including joint ventures and limited partnerships) and other non-fixed-income investments.
For further details on our alternative investments, in addition to the discussion of the investments herein, please see "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Note 4(b). Other Investments, Equity Securities and Equity Method Investments" included under Part I Item 1 "Financial Information" of this Form 10-Q.
Our investment performance is subject to a variety of risks, including risks related to general economic conditions, market volatility, interest rate fluctuations, foreign exchange risk, liquidity risk and credit and default risk. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates could result in significant losses, realized or unrealized, in the value of our investment portfolio. A portion of our portfolio consists of alternative investments that subject us to restrictions on redemption, which may limit our ability to withdraw funds for some period of time after the initial investment. The values of, and returns on, such investments may also be more volatile.
We believe our other investments, equity securities and equity method investments portfolio provides diversification against our fixed-income investments and an opportunity for improved risk-adjusted return, however, the returns of these investments may be more volatile and we may experience significant unrealized gains or losses in any particular quarter or year. While we believe the returns produced by these investments will exceed our cost of capital, in particular our cost of debt capital, it is too soon to determine if the actual returns will achieve this objective and it may be an extended period of time before that determination can be made.
We may utilize and pay fees to various companies to provide investment advisory and/or management services related to these investments. These fees, which would be predominantly based upon the amount of assets under management, would be included in net investment income. In addition, costs associated with evaluating, analyzing and monitoring these investments may require additional expenditures than traditional marketable securities. During 2022, our investment expenses associated with our alternative investments have decreased compared to 2021.
The substantial majority of our current and future investments are held by Maiden Reinsurance, whose investment policy was approved by the Vermont DFR. We may utilize a portion of Maiden Reinsurance's unrestricted assetsPrior to purchase affiliated securities and, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we utilized $10.0 million in conjunction withExchange, the 2021 Preference Share Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2022, Maiden ReinsuranceCompany cumulatively invested $175.8$176.4 million in the preference shares of Maiden Holdings.Holdings which have since been extinguished and exchanged for 41,439,348 common shares of the Company pursuant to the Exchange. As a result of the Exchange, there are no preference shares outstanding. The market value of our common shares held by Maiden Reinsurance due to the Exchange was $86.9 million at June 30, 2023.
Cash & Cash Equivalents
At SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we consider the levels of cash and cash equivalents held to be within our targeted ranges. During periods when interest rates experience greater volatility, we have periodically maintained more cash and cash equivalents to better assess current market conditions and opportunities within our defined risk appetite, and may do so in future periods.

During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond increaseddecreased by 2317 basis points to 3.83%3.81%. The 10-year U.S. Treasury rate is the key risk-free determinant in the fair value of many of the fixed maturity securities in our portfolio. The U.S. Treasury yield curve experienced a material upwardslight shift during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, reflecting concerns of the U.S. Federal Reserve about ongoingreduced but continuing elevated inflation emanating fromlevels and the combination of: 1) theongoing strength of the U.S. economy as the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to abate; 2) geopolitical instability in Eastern Europe which threatened additional inflation and global economic stability; 3) the levels of fiscal stimulus administered by the U.S. federal government to support the economy; and 4) the anticipated monetary policy responses required to temper these factors.despite significant interest rate increases implemented since 2022. Central banks globally have respondedcontinue to respond in similar fashion and continue to suggest additional interest rate increases may occur.occur; however, the significant majority of rate increases by central banks have largely impacted the short end of the yield curve and the limited movement in 10-year U.S. Treasury yields is consistent with that experience.
The movementchange in the market values of our fixed maturity portfolio during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 generated net unrealized lossesgains of $62.1$2.8 million which reducedincreased our book value per common share by $0.71$0.03 during thatthe period. Current outlooks for global monetary policy indicate that substantial quantitative tightening by central banks in the U.S. and globally appearsare likely to continue for at leastmoderate in the near term.term, although expectations remain that central banks will maintain a bias toward further tightening for the foreseeable future. Our investment portfolios, in particular our fixed maturity portfolio, may be adversely impacted by unfavorable market conditions caused by these measures, which could cause continued volatility in our results of operations and negatively impact our financial condition.
Interest rate risk is the price sensitivity of a security to changes in interest rates. Credit spread risk is the price sensitivity of a security to changes in credit spreads. As noted, the fair value of our fixed maturity investments will fluctuate with changes in interest rates and credit spreads. We attempt to maintain adequate liquidity in our fixed maturity investments portfolio with a strategy designed to emphasize the preservation of our invested assets and provide sufficient liquidity for the prompt payment of claims and contract liabilities. Because we collateralize a significant portion of our insurance liabilities, unanticipated or large increases in interest rates could require us to utilize significant amounts of unrestricted cash and fixed maturity securities to provide additional collateral, which could impact our asset and capital management strategy described herein.

We also monitor the duration and structure of our investment portfolio as discussed below. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the aggregate hypothetical change in fair value from an immediate 100 basis points increase in interest rates, assuming credit

spreads remain constant, in our fixed maturity investments portfolio would decrease the fair value of that portfolio by $11.8$7.3 million. Actual shifts in interest rates may not change by the same magnitude across the maturity spectrum or on an individual security and, as a result, the impact on the fair value of our fixed maturity securities may be materially different from the resulting change in value described above.
To limit our exposure to unexpected interest rate increases which would reduce the value of our fixed income securities and reduce our shareholders' equity, we attempt to maintain the duration of our fixed maturity investment portfolio combined with our cash and cash equivalents, both restricted and unrestricted, within a reasonable range of the duration of our loss reserves. At SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, these respective durations in years were as follows:
September 30, 2022December 31, 2021June 30, 2023December 31, 2022
Fixed maturities and cash and cash equivalentsFixed maturities and cash and cash equivalents1.41.5Fixed maturities and cash and cash equivalents1.41.3

Reserve for loss and LAE - net of LPT/ADC Agreement reservesReserve for loss and LAE - net of LPT/ADC Agreement reserves0.81.4Reserve for loss and LAE - net of LPT/ADC Agreement reserves1.51.1
During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the weighted average duration of our fixed maturity investment portfolio decreased by 0.1 yearslightly increased to 1.4 years while the duration for the gross reserve for loss and LAE increased by 0.7 year to 5.1remained at 5.3 years. The differential in duration between these assets and liabilities may fluctuate over time and in the case of fixed maturities, historically has been affected by factors such as market conditions, changes in asset mix and prepayment speeds in the case of both our U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities ("Agency MBS") and commercial mortgage-backed securities. At September 30, 2022, the duration of our fixed maturity investment portfolio decreased compared to December 31, 2021 due to continued sales of fixed maturity investments primarily made to settle claim payments with AmTrust.
At SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the duration of our loss reserves net of the LPT/ADC Agreement was lowerslightly higher than the duration of our fixed maturity investment portfolio driven byreflecting the commutationincreased percentage of certain European Hospital Liability policiesliabilities which wereare long-tailed in nature and were not subject to the LPT/ADC Agreement.Agreement which continue to increase in relation to total insurance liabilities as other insurance liabilities continue to run-off more quickly.
To limit our exposure to unexpected interest rate increases that could reduce the value of our fixed maturity securities and reduce our shareholders' equity, the Company holds floating rate securities whose fair values are less sensitive to interest rates. At SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021, 28.2%2022, 33.9% and 23.6%29.6%, respectively, of our fixed income investments are comprised of floating rate securities.

Long-Term Debt" included under Part I Item 1 "Financial Information" of this Form 10-Q, on May 3, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase, including the repurchase by Maiden Reinsurance in accordance with its investment guidelines, of up to $100.0 million of the Company's Senior Notes from time to time at market prices in open market purchases or as may be privately negotiated. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Maiden Reinsurance repurchased 5,567 notes of the 2013 Senior Notes at an average price per unit of $17.10 for a total cost of $95.2 thousand. Total interest and amortization expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were partly offset by a gain of $39.9 thousand realized on the repurchase of the 2013 Senior Notes. The Company has a remaining authorization of $99.9 million for such repurchases at June 30, 2023.
Maiden Holdings does not have any significant operations or assets other than ownership of the shares of our subsidiaries. The dividends and other permitted distributions from Maiden NA (and its subsidiaries) will be our sole source of funds to meet ongoing cash requirements, including debt service payments. Factors that may affect payments to holders of the 2013 Senior Notes include restrictions on the payments of dividends by Maiden Reinsurance to Maiden NA which provides the sole source of income for interest payments on the 2013 Senior Notes. In 2022 and 2023, the Vermont DFR approved an annual dividend program to be paid by Maiden Reinsurance to Maiden NA, with notification to the Vermont DFR as dividends are paid. Subsequent to those approvals, Maiden Reinsurance paid total dividends of $31.3 million to Maiden NA as of June 30, 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Certain of the Company's investments in limited partnerships are related to real estate joint ventures with interests in multi-property projects with varying strategies ranging from the development of properties to the ownership of income-producing properties. In certain of these joint ventures, the Company has provided certain indemnities, guarantees and commitments to certain parties such that it may be required to make payments now or in the future as further described in the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Note 11. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees" included under Part I Item 1 "Financial Information" of this Form 10-Q.
Any loss for which the Company could be liable would be contingent on the default of a loan by the real estate joint venture entity for which the Company provided a financial guarantee to a lender. While the Company has committed to aggregate limits as to the amount of guarantees it will provide as part of its limited partnerships, guarantees are only provided on an individual transaction basis and are subject to the terms and conditions of each transaction mutually agreed by the parties involved. The Company is not bound to such guarantees without its express authorization.
As discussed above, at SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, guarantees of $41.3$43.1 million have been provided to lenders by the Company on behalf of the real estate joint venture, however, the likelihood of the Company incurring any losses pertaining to project level financing guarantees was determined to be remote. Therefore, no liability has been accrued under ASC 450-20.

Non-GAAP Measures
As defined and described in the Key Financial Measures section, management uses certain key financial measures, some of which are non-GAAP measures, to evaluate the Company's financial performance and the overall growth in value generated for the Company’s common shareholders. Management believes that these measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, explain the Company’s results to investors in a manner that allows for a more complete understanding of the underlying trends in the Company’s business. The calculation, reconciliation to nearest GAAP measure and discussion of relevant non-GAAP measures used by management are as follows:
Non-GAAP operating lossincome was $21.1$4.5 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 compared to a non-GAAP operating lossincome of $3.1$16.6 million for the same period in 2021. The reduction in the Company's non-GAAP operating results was2022, largely due to a$24.7 million of gains from repurchase of our preference shares in the second quarter of 2022. Excluding the gain from the repurchase of preference shares in the second quarter of 2022, our non-GAAP operating income increased by $12.6 million compared to the same period in 2022 largely due to higher non-GAAP underwriting lossincome as discussed below.
Non-GAAP underwriting income of $18.9$1.5 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, compared to a non-GAAP underwriting loss of $7.3$8.6 million partly offset by gains of $6.0 million for preference share repurchases for the same respective period in 2021.2022. The non-GAAP underwriting results in both respective periods included underwriting results in the AmTrust Reinsurance segment not covered by the LPT/ADC Agreement, specifically the run-off of the AmTrust Quota Share with losses occurring after December 31, 2018, as well as loss development under the European Hospital Liability Quota Share, and underwriting losses in the Diversified Reinsurance segment of $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a loss of $1.3 million for the same period in 2022.
Non-GAAP operating loss was $11.4$3.4 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, compared to non-GAAP operating earningsincome of $58.1 million in 2021. The reduction in the Company's non-GAAP operating results was largely due to a non-GAAP underwriting loss of $30.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a non-GAAP underwriting loss of $17.9$9.7 million for the same respective period in 2021. Underwriting performance was offset by gains of2022 which included $28.2 million of gains from the repurchase of our preference shares at market valuesin 2022.
Non-GAAP underwriting loss of $5.2 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 compared to gainsnon-GAAP underwriting loss of $87.2$11.2 million for preference share repurchases during the same period in 2021.

Please see "Key Financial Measures" section for the definitions of Non-GAAP underwriting loss and net loss and LAE.
The non-GAAP underwriting results include the impact of favorable prior year loss reserve development under the AmTrust Quota Share which is fully recoverable from Cavello under the LPT/ADC Agreement to show the ultimate economic benefit to the Company. As shown in the table above, adjusted for the decreaseincrease in the deferred gain under the LPT/ADC Agreement of $6.3$10.7 million and $10.7$12.3 million during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, respectively, the non-GAAP underwriting lossincome was $18.9$1.5 million and $30.1an underwriting loss of $5.2 million, respectively. This compared to a non-GAAP underwriting loss of $7.3$8.6 million and $17.9$11.2 million, respectively, when adjusted for the decrease of $3.5 million and $4.5 million in the deferred gain under the LPT/ADC Agreement of $3.6 million and $24.3 million during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively.
The improvement in non-GAAP underwriting results above were due to underwriting resultswas primarily the result of lower incurred losses in the AmTrust Reinsurance segment not covered by the LPT/ADC Agreement, specifically the run-off of the AmTrust Quota Share withfor losses occurring after December 31, 2018 (including the additional ceding commission paid under the Partial Termination Amendment) as well as claims related to the European Hospital Liability Quota Share. Underwriting income in2018. The non-GAAP underwriting results were also driven by the Diversified Reinsurance segment which had an underwriting loss of $3.1 million and $5.1 million for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 decreased by $2.02023, respectively, compared to a loss of $1.3 million and $0.3income of $0.2 million compared tofor the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.same respective periods in 2022.
Non-GAAP Net Loss and LAE
Adjusted for the increase in the deferred gain for the LPT/ADC Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the non-GAAP net loss and LAE decreased by $10.7 million and $12.3 million, respectively, as these amounts included adverse loss experience for AmTrust Quota Share reserves under the LPT/ADC Agreement which are ultimately recoverable from Cavello.
Adjusted for the decrease in the deferred gain for the LPT/ADC Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the non-GAAP net loss and LAE for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $6.3$3.5 million and $10.7$4.5 million, respectively, (2021 - $3.6 million and $24.3 million, respectively), due toas these amounts included favorable loss experience for AmTrust Quota Share reserves subject tounder the LPT/ADC Agreement which are ultimately recoverable from Cavello.

Adjusted Shareholders' Equity, Adjusted Total Capital Resources, Adjusted Book Value per Common Share, and Ratio of Debt to Total Adjusted Capital Resources
The Adjusted Shareholders' Equity, Adjusted Total Capital Resources and Adjusted Book Value per Common Share at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022 reflect the addition of the unamortized deferred gain under the LPT/ADC Agreement to the GAAP shareholders' equity as depicted in the computations below. The deferred gain under the LPT/ADC Agreement was $35.1$57.7 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 compared to $45.9$45.4 million at December 31, 2021, and2022, which relates to loss reserves subject to that agreement that are fully recoverable from Cavello.
The decreaseincrease in the unamortized deferred gain under the LPT/ADC Agreement for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 is attributable to $10.7$12.3 million in net loss and LAE recognized as favorableadverse loss development in the Company's GAAP income statement for policies subject to the LPT/ADC Agreement. We believe the inclusion of this unamortized deferred gain under these metrics better reflects the ultimate economic benefit of the LPT/ADC Agreement, which will improve the Company's shareholders' equity over the settlement period under the terms of the agreement.
The Adjusted Shareholders' Equity, Adjusted Total Capital Resources and Adjusted Book Value per Common Share at December 31, 2021 also reflected the LP Investment Adjustment of $4.1 million, which pertained to the equity accounting related to the fair value of certain hedged liabilities in an equity method investment held by the Company wherein the ultimate realizable value of the asset supporting the hedged liabilities was not recognized at fair value until its sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. We believe that this adjustment recognized the future realizable value and reflected the ultimate economic benefit of this investment which was sold at a realized gain during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and improved the Company's shareholders' equity over the hedged contract period of the investment.

Currency and Foreign Exchange
We conduct business in a variety of foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, the principal exposures being the euro and the British pound. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are exposed to changes in currency exchange rates. Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, and exchange rate fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar may materially impact our results and financial position. Our principal exposure to foreign currency risk is our obligation to settle claims in foreign currencies. In addition, in order to minimize this risk, we maintain and expect to continue to maintain a portion of our investment portfolio in investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We may employ various strategies (including hedging) to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. To the extent that these exposures are not fully hedged or the hedges are ineffective, our results of operations or equity may be adversely affected. At SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, no such hedges or hedging strategies were in force or had been entered into. We measure monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at period end exchange rates, with the resulting foreign exchange gains and losses recognized in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenues and expenses in foreign currencies are converted at average exchange rates during the period. The effect of the translation adjustments for foreign operations is included in AOCI.
Net foreign exchange gainslosses of $8.6$2.6 million and $20.5$4.7 million were generated during the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, respectively, compared to net foreign exchange gains of $4.1$7.9 million and $6.3$11.9 million for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively. The decrease in foreign exchange results for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same respective periods in 2022 was due to a decline in the value of the U.S. dollar against the euro and the British pound.
At SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, net foreign exchange gainslosses were primarily driven by exposures to euro, British pound and other non-USD denominated net loss reserves and insurance related liabilities in excess of foreign currency assets. Our non-USD denominated liabilities at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 included reserve for net loss and LAE of $281.7$313.5 million. There was no new business written in non-USD currencies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our foreign currency asset exposures at SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 include $185.3$172.1 million of fixed maturity securities managed by our investment managers who have the discretion to hold foreign currency exposures as part of their total return strategy as well as $24.9$22.6 million of equity method real estate investments denominated in Canadian dollars.
Effects of Inflation
The anticipated effects of inflation are considered explicitly in the pricing of the insured exposures, which are used as the initial estimates of reserves for loss and LAE. In addition, inflation is also implicitly accounted for in subsequent estimates of loss and LAE reserves, as the expected rate of emergence is in part predicated upon the historical levels of inflation that impact ultimate claim costs. To the extent inflation causes these costs, particularly medical treatments and litigation costs, to vary from the assumptions made in the pricing or reserving estimates, the Company will be required to change the reserve for loss and LAE with a corresponding change in its earnings in the period in which the variance is identified. The actual effects of inflation on the results of operations of the Company cannot be accurately known until claims are ultimately settled.
We continue to monitor inflationary impacts resulting from recent government stimulus, sharp increases in demand, labor force and supply chain disruptions, among other factors, on our loss cost trends. Our reserves predominantly consist of workers’ compensation, general liability, and hospital liability. These long tailed lines of business have been subject to the longer term trend of social inflation, but we have not observed significant impacts for the recently elevated levels of inflation. We proactively analyze available data and we incorporate trends into our loss reserving assumptions to ensure we are considerate of current and future economic conditions.
Governmental policy responses to inflation have significantly increased interest rates which, in the short term, have contributed to unrealized losses on our fixed income investments, particularly on our fixed maturity securities. There remains uncertainty around the rate and direction of inflation and we continue to monitor our liquidity, capital and potential earnings impact of these changes but remain focused on our asset allocation decisions as described in our "Business Strategy" section of Item 7 "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Overview".
Inflation may also result in increased wage pressures for our operating expenses, as we remain focused on being a competitive employer in our market. Labor shortages arising from the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic have contributed to uncertainty in attracting and retaining talent that may put pressure on higher wage costs. Currently, salaries and incentive compensation costs comprise more than one-half of our total general and administrative expenses and thereby could have a material impact our net operating results.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by Item 303(a) (4) of Regulation S-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 Our management, with the participation and under the supervision of our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide an absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.
During the most recent fiscal quarter, there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
