ITEM 2.02. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
On November 6, 2024, White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. issued a press release announcing its results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The press release furnished herewith is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
Certain information included in the press release constitutes non-GAAP financial measures (as defined in Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission). Specifically, there are 13 non-GAAP financial measures: (i) adjusted book value per share, (ii) value of BAM Surplus Notes for adjusted book value purposes, (iii) Kudu’s EBITDA, (iv) Kudu’s adjusted EBITDA, (v) Kudu’s annualized adjusted EBITDA, (vi) Kudu’s annualized revenue, (vii) Kudu’s cash revenue yield, (viii) Bamboo’s MGA pre-tax income (loss), (ix) Bamboo’s MGA net income (loss), (x) Bamboo’s MGA EBITDA, (xi) Bamboo’s MGA adjusted EBITDA, (xii) total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha and (xiii) total equity portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha. These non-GAAP financial measures have been reconciled from their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is derived by adjusting (i) the GAAP book value per share numerator and (ii) the common shares outstanding denominator, as described below. The GAAP book value per share numerator is adjusted (i) for periods prior to July 1, 2024, to include a discount for the time value of money arising from the modeled timing of cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM surplus notes and (ii) for all periods, to add back the unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, at HG Global. Under GAAP, for periods prior to July 1, 2024, the BAM surplus notes and accrued interest receivable were classified as intercompany notes carried at nominal value with no consideration for time value of money and eliminated in consolidation. Based on a debt service model that forecasts operating results for BAM through maturity of the BAM surplus notes, the present value of the BAM surplus notes, including accrued interest and using an 8% discount rate, was estimated to be $87 million, $91 million and $93 million less than the nominal GAAP carrying values as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively. For periods subsequent to July 1, 2024, White Mountains carries the BAM surplus notes under GAAP at fair value, and there is no longer a separate time value of money adjustment for adjusted book value purposes. The value of HG Global’s unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, was $204 million, $199 million, $195 million and $187 million as of September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively. White Mountains believes these adjustments are useful to management and investors in analyzing the intrinsic value of HG Global, including the value of the BAM surplus notes and the value of the in-force business at HG Re, HG Global’s reinsurance subsidiary. The denominator used in the calculation of adjusted book value per share equals the number of common shares outstanding, adjusted to exclude unearned restricted common shares, the compensation cost of which, at the date of calculation, has yet to be amortized. Restricted common shares are earned on a straight-line basis over their vesting periods. The reconciliation of GAAP book value per share to adjusted book value per share is included on page 8 of Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
The value of the BAM surplus notes for adjusted book value purposes is a non-GAAP financial measure derived, for periods prior to July 1, 2024, by adjusting the nominal GAAP carrying value for a time value discount included in the calculation of adjusted book value per share prior to the deconsolidation of BAM. A reconciliation of the nominal GAAP carrying value to the value of the BAM surplus notes for adjusted book value purposes follows. The amounts disclosed are gross of noncontrolling interests. White Mountains believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to management and investors in analyzing the impact to White Mountains from the value of the BAM surplus notes pre- and post-deconsolidation.

(1) The nominal carrying value of the BAM surplus notes includes principal and accrued interest receivable.
(2) For periods subsequent to July 1, 2024, White Mountains carries the BAM surplus notes under GAAP at fair value, and there is no longer a separate time value of money adjustment for adjusted book value purposes.
(3) See adjusted book value per share non-GAAP measure on page 22 of Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
Kudu’s EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, annualized adjusted EBITDA, annualized revenue and cash revenue yield are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to GAAP net income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those added back to calculate EBITDA. The items relate to (i) net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts, (ii) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and (iii) transaction expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) - Represents net unrealized investment gains and losses recorded on Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts, which are recorded at fair value under GAAP, and realized investment gains and losses from participation contracts sold during the period.
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Kudu’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Kudu.
•Transaction expenses - Represents costs directly related to Kudu’s mergers and acquisitions activity, such as external lawyer, banker, consulting and placement agent fees, which are not capitalized and are expensed under GAAP.
Annualized adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) annualizes partial year revenues related to Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts acquired during the previous 12-month period and (ii) removes partial year revenues related to revenue and earnings participation contracts sold during the previous 12-month period. Annualized revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds the adjustments for annualized adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net investment income. Cash revenue yield is a non-GAAP financial measure that is derived using annualized revenue as a percentage of total net capital drawn and invested. White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Kudu’s performance. White Mountains also believes that annualized adjusted EBITDA is useful to management and investors in understanding the full earnings profile of Kudu’s business as of the end of any 12-month period. See page 19 of Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K for the reconciliation of Kudu’s GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and annualized adjusted EBITDA, and the reconciliation of Kudu’s GAAP net investment income to annualized revenue.
Bamboo’s MGA pre-tax income (loss), MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. MGA pre-tax income (loss) and MGA net income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the results of the Bamboo Captive, which is consolidated under GAAP, from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) and net income (loss). The following table presents the reconciliation from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) to MGA pre-tax income (loss):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Millions | | Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 | | Nine Months Ended

| MGA pre-tax income (loss) | | $ | 13.6 | | | $ | 20.9 | | | |
MGA EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to MGA net income (loss). MGA adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those added back to calculate MGA EBITDA. The items relate to (i) non-cash equity-based compensation expense, (ii) software implementation expenses and (iii) restructuring expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Bamboo’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Bamboo.
•Software implementation expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s implementation of new software.
•Restructuring expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s corporate restructuring and capital planning activities associated with the development of new markets.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Bamboo’s performance. See page 21 of Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K for the reconciliation of Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP net income (loss) to MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA.
Total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha and total equity portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the net investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) from White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha. White Mountains believes these measures to be useful to management and investors by showing the underlying performance of White Mountains’s investment portfolio and equity portfolio without regard to White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha. The following tables present reconciliations from GAAP to the reported percentages:

WHITE MOUNTAINS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
HAMILTON, Bermuda (November 6, 2024) - White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. (NYSE: WTM) reported book value per share of $1,795 and adjusted book value per share of $1,883 as of September 30, 2024. Book value per share and adjusted book value per share increased 4% and 6% in the third quarter of 2024 and 9% and 11% in the first nine months of 2024, including dividends.
As of July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. As of September 30, 2024, the BAM surplus notes were fair valued in accordance with GAAP at $411 million, which resulted in a pre-tax unrealized loss to book value of $99 million in the third quarter. As of June 30, 2024, for adjusted book value purposes, the BAM surplus notes were valued at $415 million, including an $87 million time value discount.
Manning Rountree, CEO, commented, “ABVPS was up 6% in the quarter and 11% year-to-date, driven by solid results at our operating companies and good investment returns. Ark produced a 79% combined ratio and $374 million of gross written premiums in the quarter, up 49% year-over-year. HG Global generated $14 million of gross written premiums in the quarter, driven by strong primary market volume at BAM. At Kudu, trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA increased, while the fair value of the continuing portfolio grew 3%. Bamboo had another strong quarter, doubling managed premiums and growing adjusted EBITDA significantly. MediaAlpha’s share price increased 38% in the quarter, producing an $88 million unrealized gain. Undeployed capital remains at roughly $650 million.”
Comprehensive income attributable to common shareholders was $180 million and $361 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $23 million and $224 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Results in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 included $88 million and $160 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains from White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha compared to $47 million and $39 million of unrealized investment losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Ark/WM Outrigger
The Ark/WM Outrigger segment’s combined ratio was 77% and 84% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to 77% and 83% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Ark/WM Outrigger reported gross written premiums of $374 million and $1,943 million, net written premiums of $339 million and $1,440 million and net earned premiums of $552 million and $1,173 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to gross written premiums of $251 million and $1,667 million, net written premiums of $231 million and $1,306 million and net earned premiums of $499 million and $1,047 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Ark’s combined ratio was 79% and 85% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to 81% and 87% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Ark’s combined ratio included 17 points and eight points of catastrophe losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, driven primarily by Hurricanes Helene, Debby and Beryl as well as Calgary hailstorms, compared to 11 points and seven points of catastrophe losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, driven primarily by Hurricane Idalia, the Maui wildfires and various smaller events. Ark’s combined ratio in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 included five points and three points of net favorable prior year development, primarily from property lines of business, compared to less than one point of net favorable prior year development and two points of net unfavorable prior year development in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Ark reported gross written premiums of $374 million and $1,943 million, net written premiums of $331 million and $1,358 million and net earned premiums of $507 million and $1,111 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to gross written premiums of $251 million and $1,667 million, net written premiums of $225 million and $1,198 million and net earned premiums of $438 million and $972 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Ark reported pre-tax income of $119 million and $202 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $62 million and $140 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Ark’s results included net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) of $53 million and $84 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $(7) million and $36 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Ian Beaton, CEO of Ark, said, “Ark had a good third quarter. The combined ratio was 79% in the quarter, an improvement of two points year-over-year. Gross written premiums were $374 million in the quarter and $1,943 million year-to-date, up 49% and 17%, respectively, from 2023 levels despite generally flat rate change. We continue to experience good growth across several lines of business, aided by new underwriters and product classes.”
WM Outrigger Re’s combined ratio was 58% and 50% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to 44% and 40% in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Catastrophe losses in 2024 included Hurricanes Helene, Debby and Beryl as well as Calgary hailstorms. Major catastrophe losses affecting WM Outrigger Re in 2023 were minimal. WM Outrigger Re reported gross and net written premiums of $9 million and $82 million and net earned premiums of $45 million and $63 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to gross and net written premiums of $6 million and $108 million and net earned premiums of $61 million and $75 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. Net earned premiums in the first nine months of 2024 decreased due to White Mountains’s lower capital commitment to WM Outrigger Re in 2024 compared to 2023. WM Outrigger Re reported pre-tax income of $22 million and $40 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $37 million and $53 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
Hurricane Milton represents a significant industry loss event in the fourth quarter. Industry estimates are preliminary and range widely. Ark does not currently expect that Milton losses will cause full year 2024 actual catastrophe losses for Ark/WM Outrigger to diverge materially from full year 2024 planned catastrophe losses.
HG Global
Effective July 1, 2024, White Mountains no longer consolidates BAM. Upon deconsolidation, the BAM surplus notes were fair valued in accordance with GAAP at $387 million, which resulted in an unrealized loss on deconsolidation of $115 million. As of September 30, 2024, the BAM surplus notes were fair valued at $411 million, which included accrued interest of $8 million and an increase in fair value of $16 million, driven by lower interest rates, during the third quarter of 2024. As of June 30, 2024, for adjusted book value purposes, the BAM surplus notes were valued at $415 million, including an $87 million time value discount.
HG Global reported gross written premiums of $14 million and $35 million and earned premiums of $8 million and $22 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to gross written premiums of $14 million and $32 million and earned premiums of $7 million and $19 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. HG Global reported gross written premiums net of ceding commission paid of $10 million and $24 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $10 million and $22 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. HG Global’s total par value of policies assumed, which represents its first-loss exposure on policies assumed from BAM, was $688 million and $2,012 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $644 million and $1,594 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. HG Global’s total gross pricing was 203 and 171 basis points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to 220 and 200 basis points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023.
HG Global reported pre-tax income (loss) of $(63) million and $(46) million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $(2) million and $22 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. HG Global’s results included net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) of $23 million and $13 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $(14) million and $(11) million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, driven by the movement of interest rates. HG Global’s results in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 also included the loss on deconsolidation of $115 million, partially offset by an increase in fair value of the BAM surplus notes of $16 million during the quarter.
Kevin Pearson, President of HG Global, said, “HG Global had a solid quarter with gross written premiums of $14 million. HG Global benefited from continued high demand for BAM’s bond insurance, particularly in the primary market. Par value of primary market policies assumed grew 5% to $582 million, while primary market gross written premiums grew 14% to $10 million.”

Kudu
Kudu reported total revenues of $47 million, pre-tax income of $38 million and adjusted EBITDA of $14 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to total revenues of $26 million, pre-tax income of $16 million and adjusted EBITDA of $12 million in the third quarter of 2023. Total revenues, pre-tax income and adjusted EBITDA included $17 million of net investment income in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $15 million in the third quarter of 2023. Total revenues and pre-tax income also included $30 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $11 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Kudu reported total revenues of $128 million, pre-tax income of $101 million and adjusted EBITDA of $41 million in the first nine months of 2024 compared to total revenues of $89 million, pre-tax income of $62 million and adjusted EBITDA of $34 million in the first nine months of 2023. Total revenues, pre-tax income and adjusted EBITDA included $50 million of net investment income in the first nine months of 2024 compared to $44 million in the first nine months of 2023. Total revenues and pre-tax income also included $78 million of net realized and unrealized investment gains in the first nine months of 2024 compared to $45 million in the first nine months of 2023.
Rob Jakacki, CEO of Kudu, said, “We enjoyed another strong quarter. Trailing 12 months net investment income increased 3% to $77 million, while annualized adjusted EBITDA increased 2% to $63 million. The fair value of Kudu’s continuing portfolio increased 3%. Kudu’s pipeline remains highly active. We are pleased to have closed our capital deployment in Revelation early in the fourth quarter, and we expect to deploy additional capital before the end of the year.”
Bamboo
Bamboo reported commission and fee revenues of $43 million and $97 million and pre-tax income of $16 million and $23 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024. Bamboo reported MGA pre-tax income of $14 million and $21 million and MGA adjusted EBITDA of $19 million and $37 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024.
Managed premiums, which represent the total premiums placed by Bamboo, were $148 million and $358 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to $71 million and $140 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2023. The increase in managed premiums was driven primarily by growth in new business volume as well as a growing renewal book.
John Chu, CEO of Bamboo, said, “Bamboo had another strong quarter. Managed premiums doubled year-over-year to $148 million, and MGA Adjusted EBITDA increased to a record $19 million. Growth remains robust given high demand for our services from new and renewing policyholders.”

The equity portfolio excluding MediaAlpha returned 3.8%, behind the S&P 500 Index return of 5.9%. Equity results were driven by lower relative returns from our international common equities and certain other long-term investments.”

Regulation G
This earnings release includes non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled from their most comparable GAAP financial measures.
•Adjusted book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is derived by adjusting (i) the GAAP book value per share numerator and (ii) the common shares outstanding denominator, as described below.
The GAAP book value per share numerator is adjusted (i) for periods prior to July 1, 2024, to include a discount for the time value of money arising from the modeled timing of cash payments of principal and interest on the BAM surplus notes and (ii) for all periods, to add back the unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, at HG Global.
Under GAAP, for periods prior to July 1, 2024, the BAM surplus notes, including accrued interest receivable, were classified as intercompany notes carried at nominal value with no consideration for time value of money and eliminated in consolidation. Based on a debt service model that forecasts operating results for BAM through maturity of the BAM surplus notes, the present value of the BAM surplus notes, including accrued interest and using an 8% discount rate, was estimated to be $87 million, $91 million and $93 million less than the nominal GAAP carrying values as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively. For periods subsequent to July 1, 2024, White Mountains carries the BAM surplus notes under GAAP at fair value, and there is no longer a separate time value of money adjustment for adjusted book value purposes.
The value of HG Global’s unearned premium reserve, net of deferred acquisition costs, was $204 million, $199 million, $195 million and $187 million as of September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, respectively.
White Mountains believes these adjustments are useful to management and investors in analyzing the intrinsic value of HG Global, including the value of the BAM surplus notes and the value of the in-force business at HG Re, HG Global’s reinsurance subsidiary.
The denominator used in the calculation of adjusted book value per share equals the number of common shares outstanding adjusted to exclude unearned restricted common shares, the compensation cost of which, at the date of calculation, has yet to be amortized. Restricted common shares are earned on a straight-line basis over their vesting periods. The reconciliation of GAAP book value per share to adjusted book value per share is included on page 8.
•The value of the BAM surplus notes for adjusted book value purposes is a non-GAAP financial measure derived, for periods prior to July 1, 2024, by adjusting the nominal GAAP carrying value for a time value discount included in the calculation of adjusted book value per share prior to the deconsolidation of BAM. A reconciliation of the nominal GAAP carrying value to the value of the BAM surplus notes for adjusted book value purposes follows. The amounts disclosed are gross of noncontrolling interests. White Mountains believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to management and investors in analyzing the impact to White Mountains from the value of the BAM surplus notes pre- and post-deconsolidation.

•Kudu’s EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, annualized adjusted EBITDA, annualized revenue and cash revenue yield are non-GAAP financial measures.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to GAAP net income (loss).
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those added back to calculate EBITDA. The items relate to (i) net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) on Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts, (ii) non-cash equity-based compensation expense and (iii) transaction expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) - Represents net unrealized investment gains and losses recorded on Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts, which are recorded at fair value under GAAP, and realized investment gains and losses from participation contracts sold during the period.
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Kudu’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Kudu.
•Transaction expenses - Represents costs directly related to Kudu’s mergers and acquisitions activity, such as external lawyer, banker, consulting and placement agent fees, which are not capitalized and are expensed under GAAP.
Annualized adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that (i) annualizes partial year revenues related to Kudu’s revenue and earnings participation contracts acquired during the previous 12-month period and (ii) removes partial year revenues related to revenue and earnings participation contracts sold during the previous 12-month period.
Annualized revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds the adjustments for annualized adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net investment income.
Cash revenue yield is a non-GAAP financial measure that is derived using annualized revenue as a percentage of total net capital drawn and invested.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Kudu’s performance. White Mountains also believes that annualized adjusted EBITDA is useful to management and investors in understanding the full earnings profile of Kudu’s business as of the end of any 12-month period. See page 19 for the reconciliation of Kudu’s GAAP net income (loss) to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and annualized adjusted EBITDA, and the reconciliation of Kudu’s GAAP net investment income to annualized revenue.
•Bamboo’s MGA pre-tax income (loss), MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures.
MGA pre-tax income (loss) and MGA net income (loss) are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the results of the Bamboo Captive, which is consolidated under GAAP, from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) and net income (loss). The following table presents the reconciliation from Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) to MGA pre-tax income (loss):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Millions | | Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 |
| Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP pre-tax income (loss) | | $ | 15.5 | | $ | 22.8 | |
| Remove pre-tax (income) loss, Bamboo Captive | | (1.9) | | (1.9) | |
| MGA pre-tax income (loss) | | $ | 13.6 | | $ | 20.9 | |
MGA EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that adds back interest expense on debt, income tax (expense) benefit, depreciation and amortization of other intangible assets to MGA net income (loss).
MGA adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain other items in GAAP net income (loss) in addition to those added back to calculate MGA EBITDA. The items relate to (i) non-cash equity-based compensation expense, (ii) software implementation expenses and (iii) restructuring expenses. A description of each item follows:
•Non-cash equity-based compensation expense - Represents non-cash expenses related to Bamboo’s management compensation that are settled with equity units in Bamboo.
•Software implementation expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s implementation of new software.
•Restructuring expenses - Represents costs directly related to Bamboo’s corporate restructuring and capital planning activities associated with the development of new markets.
White Mountains believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors in evaluating Bamboo’s performance. See page 21 for the reconciliation of Bamboo’s consolidated GAAP net income (loss) to MGA net income (loss), MGA EBITDA and MGA adjusted EBITDA.
•Total consolidated portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha and total equity portfolio return excluding MediaAlpha are non-GAAP financial measures that remove the net investment income and net realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) from White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha. White Mountains believes these measures to be useful to management and investors by showing the underlying performance of White Mountains’s investment portfolio and equity portfolio without regard to White Mountains’s investment in MediaAlpha. The following tables present reconciliations from GAAP to the reported percentages:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
