Explanatory Note
As previously reported, on June 4, 2026,
Howard Hughes Insurance Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of Howard
Hughes Holdings Inc. (the “Company”), completed its acquisition (the “Vantage Transaction”) of Vantage Group Holdings,
Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company with liability limited by shares (“Vantage”) (the “Closing”), pursuant to that
certain Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of December 17, 2025, by and among Buyer, Vantage,
Carlyle Partners VII Cayman Holdings V, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the “Carlyle Investor”), H&F
Vantage Aggregator, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the “H&F Investor”), each of the other shareholders
of Vantage (the “Additional Shareholders”, together with the Carlyle Investor and the H&F Investor, each a “Seller”
and collectively, the “Sellers”), the Carlyle Investor and the H&F Investor, in their capacities as the Sellers’
representatives, and, solely for purposes of guaranteeing the obligations of Buyer pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company.
At the Closing, Buyer acquired all of
Vantage’s outstanding shares of capital stock for an aggregate cash consideration of $2.1 billion, subject to customary adjustments.
The Vantage Transaction was financed through cash on hand and $1 billion of non-voting preferred equity financing from Pershing Square
Holdings, Ltd.
The Company reported the Vantage Transaction on
a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2026 (the “Original 8-K”), and
is filing this amendment to the Original 8-K (this “Form 8-K/A”) to amend and supplement the Original 8-K to include historical
financial statements of Vantage and pro forma financial information as required by Items 9.01(a) and 9.01(b), respectively, of Form 8-K
that were excluded from the Original 8-K in reliance on the instructions to such items. Except as noted in this paragraph, no other information

information included in this Form 8-K/A are presented for illustrative purposes only, contain a variety of adjustments, assumptions and
estimates, and are not necessarily indicative of what the Company’s actual financial position or results of operations would have

materially and adversely from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this Form 8-K/A. Important
factors that may affect actual results include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the Company’s business

Report of Independent Auditors
To the Board of Directors of Vantage Group Holdings Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements
of Vantage Group Holdings Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of
December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity
and of cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial
statements”).
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’
Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the
Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial
Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation
of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required
to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated
Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not
a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of
not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there
is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they
would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.
1
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
· Exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
· Identify
and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks.
Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures
in the consolidated financial statements.
· Obtain
an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures
that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
· Evaluate
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated
financial statements.
· Conclude
whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that
raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding,
among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters
that we identified during the audit.
Required Supplemental Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
require that the incurred and paid loss development for the years ended December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2024 on pages 23
to 24 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not
a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential
part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context.
We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing
the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge
we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information
because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Carlyle and H&F. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals.
2. Basis
of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and any variable interest
entity ("VIE") in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. All inter-company transactions and balances
are eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate actual results
could differ, possibly materially, from those estimates. Amounts are presented in United States of America (“U.S.”) Dollars.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2025 presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06,
Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU updates the capitalization framework for internal-use software
development costs to reflect current development practices. It replaces the concept of project stages with a recognition threshold based
on whether completion is probable. The ASU also modifies guidance for website development costs and aligns disclosure requirements for
capitalized software costs with those for property, plant, and equipment.
The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal
years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the guidance
using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the new
standard on its financial statements and anticipates finishing this evaluation before the effective date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash equivalents include money market instruments with a
maturity of ninety days or less when purchased.
Restricted cash represents amounts held for the
benefit of third parties and is legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage by the Company.
Investments
Fixed maturity investments and short-term investments
Fixed maturity securities are classified as either
available for sale (“AFS”) or held to maturity (“HTM”). AFS securities are reported at fair value, net of valuation
allowance for expected credit losses (if necessary), with unrealized changes in fair value recorded as a separate component of accumulated
other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) in shareholders’ equity. HTM securities are investments for which the Company has
the ability and positive intent to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost, net of valuation allowance for expected credit
losses (if necessary).
Short term investments include securities due
to mature within one year of the date of purchase and are recorded at fair value, which typically approximates cost.
Interest income, dividend income, amortization
and accretion of fixed maturity market premiums and discounts are recorded in net investment income, net of investment management and
custody fees in the consolidated statements of operations. The amortization of premium and accretion of discount for fixed maturity securities
is computed using the effective yield method.
Realized gains and losses on investments are determined
using cost calculated on a specific identification basis.
For mortgage-backed securities, and any other
holdings for which there is prepayment risk, prepayment assumptions are evaluated and revised as necessary. Any adjustments required due
to the resultant change in effective yields and maturities are recognized prospectively. Prepayment fees or call premiums that are only
payable when a security is called prior to its maturity are earned when received and reflected in net investment income.
Valuation allowance for fixed maturity investments
Management evaluates AFS securities with a fair
value that has declined below amortized cost to determine how the decline in fair value should be recognized. If determined, based on
the facts and circumstances related to the specific security, that management intends to sell a security or it is more likely than not
that management would be required to sell a security before the recovery of its amortized cost, any existing allowance for expected credit
losses is reversed with an offsetting entry to the security’s amortized cost. In circumstances where the allowance has been reversed
and the fair value is less than the amortized cost, the amortized cost of the security is written down to fair value. If neither of these
conditions exist, management evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit related or other factors.
For AFS securities, management qualitatively considers
relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a decline in fair value is credit related. Relevant facts and circumstances include
but are not limited to: (i) the extent to which the fair value is less than amortized cost, (ii) changes in agency credit ratings,
(iii) adverse conditions related to the security’s industry or geographical area, (iv) failure to make scheduled payments,
and (v) other known changes in the financial condition of the issuer or quality of any underlying collateral or credit enhancements.
If upon completion of this analysis it is determined
that a potential credit loss exists, a valuation allowance for expected credit losses is established equal to the amount by which the
present value of expected cash flows is less than amortized cost, limited to the amount by which fair value is less than amortized cost.
9
Management evaluates the need for a valuation
allowance for expected credit losses for its HTM security based on probability of default and loss given various default assumptions.
Once the Company has deemed all or a portion of the amortized cost uncollectible, the uncollectible portion of the allowance is removed
from the consolidated balance sheets by writing down the amortized cost basis of the security.
The Company performed a credit loss analysis for
its AFS fixed maturity securities (as well as its premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid losses and fee income
receivable), and determined an allowance was not necessary.
The Company elected not to measure a valuation
allowance for expected credit losses for accrued investment income as uncollectible balances are written off in a timely manner.
Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interest
A VIE is a legal entity that does not have sufficient
equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or is structured such that equity investors
lack the ability to make significant decisions relating to the entity’s operations through voting rights, or do not substantively
participate in the gains and losses of the entity.
The Company consolidates the results of operations
and financial position of all VIE's in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity
that has both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE
and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
At the inception of a variable interest in a VIE,
as well as on an ongoing basis, the Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary based on a review of the VIE’s capital
structure, related contractual relationships and terms, nature of the VIE’s operations and purpose, nature of the VIE’s interests
issued and the Company’s involvement with the entity. When assessing the need to consolidate a VIE, management evaluates the design
of the VIE as well as the related risks to which the entity was designed to expose the variable interest holders. The consolidation assessment,
including the determination as to whether an entity qualifies as a VIE, depends on the facts and circumstances surrounding each entity.
For the consolidated VIE, the Company accounts
for the portion of equity of the third-party investor in the shareholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets as
noncontrolling interest. The portion of the income attributable to the third-party investor is recorded in the consolidated statements
of operations in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest.
Limited Partnerships
The Company has an investment in a limited partnership
interest which is carried at fair value. As permitted by the relevant accounting guidance, the fair value is estimated using the net asset
value (“NAV”) reported by the external fund manager as a practical expedient. This investment is presented in other assets
on the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value are recorded in realized gains or losses on investments on the consolidated
statements of operations.
Premiums and Acquisition Costs
Insurance Premiums
Insurance premiums written are recorded in accordance
with the terms of the underlying policies, are generally recorded at the policy inception and are primarily earned on a pro rata basis
over the term of the policies, usually 12 months. Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written that relate to the unexpired
terms of the policies in force.
10
Reinsurance Premiums
Reinsurance premiums written are recorded based
on the type of contract. For excess of loss reinsurance contracts, premiums are recorded as written based on the terms of the contract.
For pro rata reinsurance contracts, reinsurance premiums are recorded as written based on amounts reported by brokers and ceding companies,
supplemented by the Company’s own estimates of premiums where reports have not been received. The determination of estimates requires
a review by management based on experience with the ceding companies, familiarity with the market, timing of reported information, analysis
and understanding of the characteristics of each line of business, and management’s judgment of the impact of various factors, including
premium or loss trends on the volume of business written and ceded to the Company. On an ongoing basis, the Company’s underwriters
review the amounts reported by these third parties for reasonableness based on their experience and knowledge of the subject class of
business, taking into account management’s historical experience with the brokers or ceding companies. In addition, reinsurance
contracts under which the Company assumes business generally contain specific provisions which allow the Company to perform audits of
the ceding company to ensure compliance with the terms and conditions of the contract, including accurate and timely reporting of information.
Premium estimates are updated when new information is received and differences between such estimates and actual amounts are recorded
in the period in which estimates are changed, or the actual amounts are determined.
For multi-year reinsurance contracts which are
payable in annual installments, generally only the initial annual installment is included as premiums written at policy inception, due
to the ability of the reinsured to commute or cancel coverage under certain conditions during the term of the policy. The remaining annual
installments are included as premiums written at each successive anniversary date within the multi-year term.
Reinsurance premiums written, irrespective of
the class of business, are generally earned on a pro rata basis over the terms of the underlying policies or reinsurance contracts. Contracts
and policies written on a “losses occurring” basis cover claims that may occur during the term of the contract or policy,
which is typically 12 months. Accordingly, the reinsurance premium is earned evenly over the term. Contracts which are written on a “risks
attaching” basis cover claims which attach to the underlying insurance policies written during the terms of these contracts. Premiums
earned on “risks attaching” contracts usually extend beyond the original term of the reinsurance contract, typically resulting
in recognition of reinsurance premiums earned over a 24-month period.
Reinstatement Premiums
Reinstatement premiums for the Company’s
reinsurance operations are recognized at the time a loss event occurs, where coverage limits for the remaining life of the contract are
reinstated under pre-defined contract or policy terms. Reinsurance reinstatement premiums are fully earned when recognized. The accrual
of reinstatement premiums is based on an estimate of claims and claim expenses, which reflects management’s judgment.
Premiums Receivable
Premiums receivable include amounts receivable
from agents, brokers and insureds that are both currently due and amounts not yet due on insurance policies and reinsurance contracts.
Premiums receivable balances are reported net of an allowance for expected credit losses (if necessary). The measurement of an allowance
for expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and
reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.
The Company monitors credit risk associated with
premiums receivable through its ongoing review of amounts outstanding, aging of the receivable, historical loss data, and counterparty
financial strength measures (where available).
In certain instances, credit risk may be reduced
by the Company’s right to offset loss obligations and/or unearned premiums against premiums receivable. Any allowance for expected
credit losses is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period the receivable is recorded and updated in subsequent
periods to reflect changes in the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses.
11
Deferred Acquisition Costs
Acquisition costs are incurred when a contract
or policy is issued and only the costs directly related to the successful acquisition of new and renewal contracts are deferred and amortized
over the same period in which the related premiums are earned. Deferred acquisition costs are presented net of ceding commissions that
are deferred and amortized over the same period in which the related premium is earned. Acquisition costs consist principally of commissions,
brokerage and premium tax expenses. Certain reinsurance contracts contain profit sharing provisions or adjustable commissions that are
estimated based on the expected claims and claim expenses on those contracts. Acquisition costs include accrual for such estimates of
commissions and are shown net of commissions and profit commissions earned on ceded reinsurance. Deferred acquisition costs are limited
to their estimated realizable value based on the related unearned premiums. Anticipated claims and claims expenses, based on historical
and current experience, and anticipated investment income related to those premiums are considered in determining the recoverability of
deferred acquisition costs. Acquisition costs are shown net of commissions on reinsurance purchased.
Reserves for Claims and Claim Expenses
The reserves for claims and claim expenses includes
estimates for unpaid claims and claim expenses on reported losses as well as an estimate of losses incurred but not reported (“IBNR”).
The reserve is based on individual claims, case reserves and other reserve estimates reported by insureds and ceding companies, as well
as management estimates of ultimate losses. We estimate ultimate losses using various generally accepted actuarial methods. Inherent in
the estimates of ultimate losses are expected trends in claim severity and frequency and other factors which could vary significantly
as claims are settled.
Accordingly, claims and claim expenses ultimately
paid may differ materially from the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. These estimates are reviewed regularly
and, as experience develops and new information becomes known, the reserves are adjusted as necessary. Such adjustments, if any, are reflected
in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they become known and are accounted for as changes in estimates.
Reinsurance
The Company purchases reinsurance to increase
capacity and to limit the impact of individual losses and events on its underwriting results by reinsuring certain levels of risk with
other insurance enterprises or reinsurers. The Company uses pro rata, excess of loss and facultative reinsurance contracts. The premiums
paid to reinsurers (i.e., ceded premiums written) are recognized over the coverage period. Prepaid reinsurance premiums represent the
portion of premiums ceded which relate to the unexpired term of the contracts in force. Ceded reinsurance contracts do not relieve the
Company of its primary obligation to its (re)insureds.
Reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses and loss
expenses are estimated in a manner consistent with the associated claim liability. Reinsurance recoverable related to IBNR is generally
developed as part of the Company’s loss reserving process, therefore, its estimation is subject to similar risks and uncertainties
as the estimation of IBNR. In certain instances, the Company obtains collateral, including letters of credit and trust accounts to reduce
the credit exposure on its reinsurance recoverable. The Company reports its reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid losses net of an
allowance for expected credit loss (if necessary). The allowance is based upon the Company’s ongoing review of amounts outstanding,
the financial condition of its reinsurers, amounts and form of collateral obtained and other relevant factors. Any allowance for expected
credit losses is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period the recoverable is recorded and updated in subsequent
periods to reflect changes in the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses.
Fee Income Receivable
Fee income receivable primarily includes
amounts from third parties relating to potential variable fees. Revenue is recognized when the variable fee is probable of being
realized and the amount of the variable fee can be reliably estimated. The probability of the variable fee being realized is
assessed based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the reinsurance contracts, historical experience, and any other
relevant factors. The estimation of the amount of the variable fee to recognize takes into consideration the anticipated
profitability of the underlying reinsurance contracts, as well as any limitations or contingencies specified in the contracts. GAAP
requires that an entity include amounts only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur as of the
balance sheet date when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. In accordance with the
guidance, management revisits the estimate at each reporting date throughout the contract period. See note 6, "Variable
Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests" for additional information.
12
Share-Based Compensation
The Company applies a fair value-based measurement
method to account for its share-based payment arrangements with eligible employees and directors. Compensation expense is estimated based
on the fair value of the award at the grant date. Determining the fair value of share-based payment arrangements at the grant date requires
management’s judgment.
For share-based payment arrangements that contain
both a service and performance condition, the Company recognizes compensation expense only for the portion of the award that is considered
probable of vesting. The fair value of share-based payment arrangements considered probable of vesting are expensed over the requisite
service period on a graded vesting basis. The probability of share-based payment arrangements vesting is evaluated at each reporting period.
Share-based payment arrangements that contain only service conditions are expensed ratably over the requisite service period.
The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures
as they occur rather than estimating service-based forfeitures over the requisite service period.
Property and Equipment, and Capitalized Software Costs
Property and equipment, consisting of leasehold
improvements, furniture, and computer hardware, are carried at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful economic lives of the assets (generally 3-5 years) or
the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter.
The assets’ residual value, useful lives
and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If such review indicates that the carrying
amount of property and equipment assets is not recoverable, and the asset's fair value is less than the carrying amount, an impairment
charge is recognized. There was no material impairment charge in both December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. An item of property
or equipment is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset.
Capitalized software costs, which represent costs
directly related to obtaining, developing, or upgrading internal use software, are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method
over a period generally not exceeding ten years. Amortization begins when the software is ready for its intended use, regardless of whether
the software has actually been placed in service.
Property and equipment and capitalized software
costs are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions
The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and
other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition
by first applying a screen test to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a
single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen test is met, the transaction is accounted for as an asset
acquisition. If the screen is not met, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes
that have the ability to create outputs which would meet the definition of a business. Significant judgment is required in the application
of the screen test to determine whether an acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition.
13
If the transaction is determined not to be a business
combination, it is accounted for as an asset acquisition. Assets acquired are measured under a cost accumulation model, with cost allocated
to acquired assets on a relative fair value basis. Goodwill is not recognized in an asset acquisition.
If the transaction is determined to be a business
combination, all tangible and intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, including contingent consideration, are recorded at
fair value. Goodwill is recognized for any difference between the consideration transferred and the fair value of the net identifiable
assets. Direct transaction costs in connection with business combinations are expensed as incurred, rather than capitalized as a component
of the cost of the assets in an asset acquisition.
Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not subject
to amortization and are tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the assets may be impaired. The annual impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets may be completed through a qualitative assessment
to determine if the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is more likely than not greater than the carrying value. The
Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment, or if a qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the carrying
value exceeds the fair value, the Company will test for impairment using a quantitative test. If the Company determines that impairment
of its intangible assets may exist, the amount of impairment loss is measured as the excess of carrying value over fair value. The Company
has not recorded any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are included
in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Foreign Exchange
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of
the Company and its subsidiaries. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are revalued at the prevailing exchange
rate at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the prevailing exchange
rate on the transaction date, with the resulting foreign exchange gains or losses included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the prevailing exchange rate on the transaction
date and are not subsequently revalued or remeasured.
Income Taxes
Certain subsidiaries of the Company operate in
jurisdictions where they are subject to taxation. Current and deferred income taxes are charged or credited to net income, or in certain
cases to AOCI, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable in the relevant jurisdiction in the period in which the tax becomes accruable
or realizable. Deferred income taxes are provided for all temporary differences between the bases of assets and liabilities used in the
consolidated balance sheets and those used in the various jurisdictional tax returns.
A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets
is recorded if it is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of the benefits related to deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Adjustments to the valuation allowance are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations when there are changes in circumstances
that causes a change in judgment about realizability.
The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain
tax positions only when the position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained on audit by the relevant taxing authorities. As of December 31,
2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits.
On December 27, 2023, the Bermuda
government enacted tax legislation referred to as the Bermuda Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 (“Bermuda CIT”). The Bermuda
CIT establishes a 15% corporate income tax, for in-scope businesses, for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025.
The enacted legislation includes a provision referred to as the Economic Transition Adjustment (“ETA”), which requires
Bermuda Constituent entities to establish tax basis in their assets and liabilities, excluding goodwill, based on fair value as of
September 30, 2023. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See note 14, "Income Taxes" for additional
information.
14
Leases
The Company records expenses for operating leases
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recognizes assets and liabilities associated with leases in the consolidated
balance sheets. The Company does not record an asset or liability for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.
The right-of-use asset and the lease liability
are recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Total gross unrealized losses represented approximately
2.4% and 3.1% of the aggregate fair value of the related securities as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The total gross unrealized losses are comprised of 448 and 869 individual securities as of December 31, 2025, and December 31,
2024, respectively. The Company concluded that for these securities, the gross unrealized losses during the years ended December 31,
2025, and December 31, 2024, were related to noncredit factors and therefore, did not recognize any credit-related losses during
the related periods. Additionally, the Company currently does not intend to and is not required to sell these investments prior to an

5. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined 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.
FASB ASC Topic "Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures" prescribes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to the respective valuation techniques used to measure
fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(Level 1) and the lowest priority to valuation techniques that use at least one significant input that is unobservable (Level 3). The
three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
· Fair
values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices obtained from active
markets for identical assets or liabilities for which the Company has access at the measurement
date. The fair value is determined by multiplying the quoted price by the quantity held by
the Company.
· Fair
values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize attributes (other than quoted prices included
in Level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs
other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable
at commonly quoted intervals, broker quotes and certain pricing indices; and
17
· Level
3 inputs are based all or in part on significant unobservable attributes for the asset or
liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the
asset or liability. In these cases, significant management assumptions are used to establish
management’s best estimate of the assumptions used by other market participants in
determining the fair value of the asset or liability.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair
value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the
fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement of the asset. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its
entirety requires judgment, and the Company considers factors specific to the asset.
In order to determine if a market is active or
inactive for a security, a number of factors are considered, including, but not limited to, the spread between what a seller is asking
for a security and what a buyer is bidding for the same security, the volume of trading activity for the security in question, the price
of the security compared to its par value (for fixed maturity investments), and other factors that may be indicative of market activity.
There have been no material changes in the valuation
techniques, nor have there been any transfers into or out of Level 3 during the years presented in these consolidated financial statements.
Below is a summary of the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates indicated:

Level 1 and 3 Securities
The Company had no Level 1 or 3 securities as of
December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.
18
Level 2 Securities
The Company values Level 2 securities using various
observable market inputs obtained from a pricing service. The pricing service prepares estimates of fair value measurements for the Company’s
Level 2 securities using proprietary valuation models based on techniques such as matrix pricing which include observable market inputs.
The fair value measurements and disclosures guidance defines observable market inputs as the assumptions market participants would use
in pricing the asset or liability developed on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. The extent of the use of
each observable market input for a security depends on the type of security and the market conditions at the balance sheet date. Depending
on the security, the priority of the use of observable market inputs may change as some observable market inputs may not be relevant or
additional inputs may be necessary. The Company uses the following observable market inputs (“standard inputs”), listed in
the approximate order of priority, in the pricing evaluation of Level 2 securities: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes,
issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research data.
The following describes the significant inputs
generally used to determine the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities by asset class:
U.S. government and government agency securities
– U.S. government and government agencies and authorities’ securities are priced by the Company’s independent pricing
service utilizing standard inputs.
Asset-backed securities – valuations
provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with an immaterial amount through
broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing models which use spreads to determine
the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and
from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market.
U.S. Corporate securities – valuations
provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors with an immaterial amount through
broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve. These spreads
are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market.
Foreign government securities – valuations
provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these
securities are generally based on international indices or valuation models which include daily observed yield curves, cross-currency
basis index spreads and country credit spreads.
Municipal securities – valuations
provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The fair values of these
securities are generally determined using spreads obtained from broker dealers who trade in the relevant security market, trade prices
and the new issue market.
Short-term investments - valuations provided
by independent pricing services, generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve.
Valuation models used by independent pricing services
can change from period to period, depending on the appropriate observable inputs that are available at the balance sheet date to price
a security.
Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, at Fair Value
The Company uses various financial instruments
in the normal course of its business. The Company’s (re)insurance contracts are excluded from the fair value of financial instruments
accounting guidance, unless the Company elects the fair value option. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment
income, certain other assets, certain other liabilities, and other financial instruments approximated their fair values. The fair value
of the fixed maturity security HTM was $9.5 million and $10.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024. The fair value was based on an internal model that incorporates maturity date (expected in 2028), scheduled interest payments and
a net present value factor, and is considered a Level 3 measurement.
19
Fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis
The Company measures the fair value of certain
assets on a non-recurring basis, generally quarterly, annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of the assets may not be recoverable. These assets include certain fixed assets and intangible assets.
6. Variable Interest Entities and Noncontrolling Interests
AdVantage
Reinsurance Bermuda Ltd.
Effective December 14, 2020, AdVantage Reinsurance
Bermuda Ltd. (f/k/a AdVantage Retro I Ltd.) (“AdVantage”) was incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and is a registered Collateralized
Insurer and Segregated Accounts Company. AdVantage operates utilizing segregated accounts to maintain separation of investor funds.
AdVantage is considered a VIE because it has equity
at risk with non-substantive voting rights.
AV0001 and AV0002
Prior to January 1, 2024, the Company held
a 50% participating, non-voting interest in two segregated accounts ("AV0001" and "AV0002") which are considered VIE's.
During 2024, AV0001 and AV0002 completed a novation agreement whereby AV0002 agreed to assume all rights and obligations from AV0001.
Following such novation, AV0001 was dissolved. At each of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, the Company held a 50% participating,
non-voting interest in AV0002.
As of December 31, 2025, and December 31,
2024, the Company is the primary beneficiary of AV0002, and it has power over the activities that most significantly impact the economic
performance of the account. As a result, the Company consolidates AV0002, and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s
consolidated balance sheet included total assets and liabilities attributable to AV0002 of $30.2 million (including $23.7 million of cash
and cash equivalents) and $13.7 million respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet included
total assets and liabilities attributable to AV0002 of $34.2 million (including $23.2 million of cash and cash equivalents) and $27.1
million, respectively. The results of AV0002 are recorded a quarter in arrears due to the availability of financial information.
The Company accounts for the portion of AV0002
equity attributable to third party investors in the shareholders’ equity section of its consolidated balance sheets as noncontrolling
interest. The noncontrolling ownership in AV0002 preference shares was approximately 50% at December 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024. The portion of AV0002 income attributable to third party investors is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in net
income attributable to noncontrolling interest.
AV0003
On December 15, 2022, AdVantage formed segregated
account AV0003 (“AV0003”) in connection with a new Subscription and Shareholder Agreement with a Preference Shareholder (third-party
investors). As of January 1, 2023, VRL sourced risk on behalf of AV0003 to match the risk and return appetite of the third-party
investors pursuant to a Reinsurance Services Agreement among VRL, AV0003 and AdVantage. VRL receives compensation based on capital deployed
and profits from AV0003. As of December 31, 2025, the separate quota share arrangement represented a variable interest of the Company
in AV0003, however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of AV0003 and therefore AV0003 is not consolidated by the Company.
There are three revenue components for VRL associated with
AV0003:
· AV0003
cedes to VRL, and VRL assumes from AV0003 a 2.5% quota share of AV0003’s liabilities
and premiums under each reinsurance agreement entered into by AV0003 that is sourced by VRL
pursuant to the Reinsurance Services Agreement, subject to a cap.
20
· VRL
provides certain underwriting and related services to AV0003 and AV0003 paid VRL a fixed
quarterly fee based on AV0003’s share capital and reinsurance capital deployed.
· AV0003
also pays VRL a variable fee based on AV0003’s performance calculated six months following
the earlier of (i) the end of the last-expiring risk period under all reinsurance agreements
and (ii) commutation of all reinsurance agreements. This variable fee is trued up every
six months thereafter until final amounts are known.
The 2.5% quota share contract is recorded as
assumed premiums and recognized ratably over the contract term of the underlying reinsurance agreements. The quarterly fees for services
provided to AV0003 were recognized over time in the period the services were provided on a proportional basis that corresponds to the
time elapsed on the underlying reinsurance contract term. The variable fee was considered fully constrained and thus the transaction
price at inception was zero. Management revisited this estimate at the reporting date and accrued for fees likely to be achievable.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, net
earned premiums include $— million related to the 2.5% quota share, while fee and other income (losses) includes $(0.2) million
related to fixed and variable fees. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net earned premiums include $1.9 million related to the
2.5% quota share, while fee and other income includes $3.1 million related to fixed and variable fees.
AV0004 and AV0005
AdVantage formed segregated accounts AV0004 (“AV0004”)
and AV0005 (“AV0005” and each of AV0004 and AV0005, a “Segregated Account”) in connection with third-party investors
on November 15, 2023 and November 1, 2024, respectively. Pursuant to separate Reinsurance Services Agreements among an applicable
Segregated Account, AdVantage, VRL and AdVantage Capital Advisors, a registered and licensed insurance agent in Bermuda (“ACA”),
VRL (in the case of AV0004 only) and ACA sourced risk on behalf of such Segregated Account, to match the risk and return appetite of the
applicable third-party investors. As of December 31, 2025, separate quota share arrangements between each Segregated Account and
VRL represented a variable interest of the Company in AV0004 and AV0005; however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of AV0004
or AV0005, so they are not consolidated by the Company.
There are three revenue components for the Company associated
with AV0004 and AV0005:
· AV0004
and AV0005 cede to VRL, and VRL assumes from them a 2.2% quota share of AV0004 and AV0005’s
liabilities and premiums under each reinsurance agreement entered into by AV0004 and AV0005
that is sourced by VRL or ACA pursuant to the Reinsurance Services Agreement, subject to
a cap.
· VRL
and ACA provide certain underwriting and related services to AV0004 and ACA provides certain
underwriting services to AV0005, and each Segregated Account pays VRL and/or ACA, as applicable,
a fixed quarterly fee based on such Segregated Account’s share capital and reinsurance
capital deployed.
· AV0004
and AV0005 may also pay VRL and/or ACA, as applicable, a variable fee based on their performance
calculated one month following the earlier of (i) the end of the last-expiring risk
period under all relevant reinsurance agreements and (ii) commutation of all relevant
reinsurance agreements. This variable fee will be trued up every three months thereafter
until final amounts are known.
The 2.2% quota share contracts are recorded as
assumed premiums and recognized ratably over the term of the underlying reinsurance agreements. The quarterly fees for services provided
to AV0004 and AV0005 are recognized over time in the period the relevant services are provided on a proportional basis that corresponds
to the time elapsed on the applicable underlying reinsurance contract term. The variable fee was considered fully constrained and thus
the transaction price at inception was zero. Management revisited this estimate at the reporting date and accrued for fees likely to
be achievable.
For the year ended December 31, 2025,
net earned premiums include $2.3 million related to the AV0004 and $11.0 million related to the AV0005 2.2% quota share agreements.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, fee and other income (losses) includes $(13.4) million related to fixed and variable fees
related to AV0004, and $39.8 million related to AV0005. For the year ended December 31, 2024, net earned premiums related to
AV0004 include $11.5 million related to the 2.2% quota share, while fee and other income includes $44.3 million related to fixed and
variable fees.
21
Because AdVantage is an independent company, the
assets of AdVantage can be used only to settle obligations of AdVantage and AdVantage is solely responsible for its own liabilities and
commitments. The Company’s financial exposure to AdVantage is limited to its investment in AdVantage’s preference shares,
VRL’s participation on a stop-loss reinsurance arrangement provided to AV0002, VRL’s quota share arrangements provided to
AV0003, AV0004 and AV0005, and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from certain reinsurance cessions from VRL to
AV0002. The Company has not provided any financial or other support to AdVantage that it is not contractually required to provide.
7. Reserves for claims and claim expenses
The Company believes the most significant accounting
judgment made by management is its estimate of claims and claim expense reserves. Claims and claim expense reserves comprise case and
IBNR reserves.
As claims and claim expense reserves are estimates,
the Company’s actual losses incurred may be more or less than the Company’s previously developed estimates, which is referred
to as either unfavorable or favorable development, respectively.
The following table presents a reconciliation of claims
and claim expense reserves during the periods indicated:

(2) Excludes reinsurance recoverable on paid losses of $13.4 million and $11.9 million as of December 31, 2025, and December 31,
2024, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2025,
the Company had $18.8 million of favorable prior year reserve development, primarily related to reserve releases related to our AdVantage
business, and various lines of business in our insurance and reinsurance segments, partially offset by reserve strengthening related to
the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
During the year ended December 31, 2025,
the Company incurred $18.2 million of catastrophe losses primarily related to the January California Wildfires.
22
During the year ended December 31, 2024,
the Company had $7.9 million of unfavorable prior year reserve development, primarily related to our transaction liability business,
partially offset by reserve releases related to Hurricane Ida and various lines of business in the reinsurance segment.
During the year ended December 31, 2024,
the Company incurred catastrophe losses primarily related to the Baltimore bridge collapse and Hurricanes Helene and Milton in the amount
of $43.5 million.
It is possible that our financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows will be materially affected in future periods due to potential claims by (re)insureds.
Incurred and Paid Claims Development
The following is information about incurred and
paid claims development as of December 31, 2025, net of reinsurance, as well as cumulative claim frequency and the total of IBNR
liabilities plus expected development on reported claims included within the net incurred claims amounts. Cumulative number of reported
claims is reported on a per claim basis. The information about incurred and paid claims development for the years ended 2021 to 2024
is presented as unaudited supplementary information. Since 2021 was the first year of writing business, historical loss payouts for both
the Insurance and Reinsurance segments are not considered to be meaningful and have not been presented.

10. Commitments, Contingencies and Other Items
Concentrations of credit risk
The Company underwrites a significant amount
of its (re)insurance business through brokers. There is credit risk associated with payments of (re)insurance balances to the
Company in regard to these brokers' ability to fulfil their contractual obligations. In addition, in some jurisdictions, if the
broker fails to make payments to the insured under the Company’s policy, the Company may remain liable to the insured for the
deficiency. These brokerage companies are large and well established, and there are no indications they are financially
distressed.

The following table sets forth the Company’s
premiums written by broker that individually contributed more than 10% of total gross written premium during the periods indicated:

Operating leases
The Company leases office space and office equipment
under various operating leases, the expiration terms of which range from March 2026 to September 2033. Total rent expense with
respect to these operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $1.9 million and $1.3 million,

Contingencies
The Company may become involved in a variety of
litigation and legal and regulatory proceedings relating to its business operations and, from time to time, it may become involved in
other actions.
If necessary, the Company will establish an accrued
liability for certain legal and regulatory proceedings. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, no accrued liability
was recorded.
11. Reinsurance
The Company evaluates the financial condition
of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk arising from its exposure to individual reinsurers. The reinsurance program
is generally placed with reinsurers whose rating, at the time of placement, was A- or better (or the equivalent) as rated by one or more
nationally recognized statistical rating organizations; or those providing reinsurance on a collateralized basis. Exposure to a single
reinsurer is also controlled with restrictions dependent on rating.

12. Segment Information
The Company classifies its businesses into three
segments – insurance, reinsurance and corporate. The Company determined its segments using the management approach described in
accounting guidance regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information. The accounting policies of the segments
are the same as those used for the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s insurance and reinsurance
segments each have managers who are responsible for the overall profitability of their respective segments and who are directly accountable
to the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM does not assess
performance, measure return on equity or make resource allocation decisions on a line of business basis. Management measures segment performance
for its insurance and reinsurance segments based on underwriting income or loss. The Company does not manage its assets by segment, and,
accordingly, investment income is not allocated to each underwriting segment.
The Company’s insurance segment operates
in the United States and Bermuda. Product lines offered by the Company's U.S. insurance subsidiaries include casualty, property, professional
liability, financial lines, healthcare, construction, and political risk and credit. Products offered by the Company's Bermuda subsidiary
include financial & professional lines and healthcare & excess casualty.
The Company’s reinsurance segment consists
of products offered by the Company's Bermuda subsidiary. Product lines offered include specialty, property & casualty, financial
lines, and property catastrophe.
The Company’s corporate segment consists
primarily of management of our investment portfolio and certain corporate expenses. The segment results primarily include net investment
income, net realized gains (losses) on investments, fee and other income (loss), income tax items, and income from our non-controlling
interest.
The Company does not allocate its assets by segment.
The following tables summarize the Company’s
underwriting income by segment, together with a reconciliation of underwriting income to net income attributable to Vantage Group Holdings
Ltd. during the periods indicated:

13. Statutory financial information
The Company and its insurance and reinsurance
subsidiaries are subject to insurance laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which they operate. These regulations include restrictions
that limit the amount of dividends or other distributions, such as loans or cash advances, available to shareholders without prior approval
of the insurance regulatory authorities.
VRL is registered under The Insurance Act of 1978
(Bermuda), amendments thereto, and related regulations which requires the Company to meet a minimum solvency margin and a minimum liquidity
ratio. The Bermuda Statutory Capital Requirement (“BSCR”) is a risk-based capital model to measure risk and to determine an
enhanced capital requirement ("ECR") and target capital level (defined as 120% of the ECR) for Class 4 insurers. VRL is
required to file an annual BSCR with the Bermuda Monetary Authority ("BMA"). VRL's 2024 BSCR was filed on April 30, 2025
with a BSCR ratio of 285%.
31
A Class 4 insurer is prohibited from declaring
or paying a dividend if in breach of its ECR, solvency margin or minimum liquidity ratio or if the declaration or payment of such dividend
would cause such a breach. Where an insurer fails to meet its solvency margin or minimum liquidity ratio on the last day of any financial
year, it is prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends during the next financial year without the approval of the Authority. Further,
a Class 4 insurer is prohibited from declaring or paying in any financial year dividends of more than 25% of its total statutory
capital and surplus (as shown on its previous financial year’s statutory balance sheet) unless it files (at least seven days before
payment of such dividends) with the Authority an affidavit signed by at least two directors and the insurer’s principal representative
stating that the declaration of such dividends has not caused the insurer to fail to meet its solvency margin or minimum liquidity ratio.
Class 4 insurers must obtain the Authority’s prior approval for a reduction by 15% or more of the total statutory capital as
set forth in its previous year’s statutory financial statements.
Our U.S. insurance subsidiaries, VRAC and VRSIC,
file financial statements prepared in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Delaware Department
of Insurance. The principal differences between statutory financial statements and financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP for domestic companies are that statutory financial statements do not reflect DAC, some bond portfolios may be carried at amortized
cost, investment impairments are determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices, assets and liabilities are presented net
of reinsurance, policyholder liabilities are generally valued using more conservative assumptions and certain assets are non-admitted.
For U.S. insurance subsidiaries, aggregate minimum
required statutory capital, and surplus is based on the greater of the RBC level that would trigger regulatory action or minimum requirements
per state insurance regulation. At December 31, 2025, our U.S. insurance subsidiaries, individually, exceeded the minimum required
statutory capital and surplus requirements. Also, our U.S. insurance subsidiaries, individually, exceeded RBC minimum required levels.
Total statutory capital and surplus as of December 31,
2025, the associated required amount and statutory net income for the year ended December 31, 2025, was as follows:

14. Income Taxes
Under previous Bermuda law, no Bermuda income
or capital gains taxes are imposed on the Company and its Bermuda subsidiaries. The Minister of Finance of Bermuda had assured the Company
and its Bermuda subsidiary that, pursuant to The Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Amendment Act of 2011, they will be exempt until
2035 from imposition of any such taxes. However, on December 27, 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted the Bermuda CIT, which became
effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires the effects of changes
in tax laws or rates to be recognized in the period in which the law is enacted, regardless of the effective date. Given the potential
for the new corporate income tax regime in Bermuda to supersede the Minister of Finance’s assurance, the Company is likely to become
subject to taxes in Bermuda before 2035. The Bermuda CIT Act applies a 15% corporate income tax to certain Bermuda constituent entities
of multi-national groups in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. The act includes a provision referred to as the ETA,
which is intended to provide a fair and equitable transition into the tax regime. Another provision defers the effective date until 2030
for Bermuda companies that meet certain requirements. The Company expects to meet the requirements to remain exempt until 2030 at which
time it expects to incur and pay increased taxes in Bermuda. The Company has subsidiaries established in the U.S. and is subject to relevant
taxes in the U.S.

The effective tax rate is the ratio of “Total

Bermuda and the United States, where the statutory tax rates are 15% and 21% respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025,
and December 31, 2024, the Company’s effective tax rate was (13)% and 0%, respectively, primarily due to the release of the
Bermuda and US valuation allowance against ordinary deferred tax assets.

For the year ended December 31,
2025, the Company has recorded a $30.0 million deferred tax benefit primarily due to the release of valuation allowance against its US
and Bermuda ordinary deferred tax assets.
In assessing whether a deferred tax asset can
be recovered and assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all positive and negative evidence to determine whether
it is more likely than not that the tax benefit of part or all of a deferred tax asset will be realized. The Company’s framework
for assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets primarily considers future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences,
available tax planning strategies and the expected occurrence of future taxable income. The weighting of the positive and negative evidence
is commensurate with the extent to which they can be objectively verified. As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we
had a valuation allowance of $4.7 million and $39.8 million, respectively. We released a material portion of the valuation allowance during
2025 following our conclusion that we could demonstrate that it was more-likely-than-not that the related deferred tax assets will be
realized.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company
had no U.S. net operating loss carryforwards.
The Company files income tax returns as required
by the tax laws of the jurisdiction in which it operates. Tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are
2022 through 2024. The Company is not currently under examination by income tax authorities in any jurisdiction.
Indefinite Reinvestment Assertions
Deferred income tax liabilities have not been
accrued with respect to the undistributed earnings of the Company's U.S. subsidiaries. It is the Company’s intention that all earnings
will be indefinitely reinvested. If the earnings were to be distributed, such amounts may be subject to withholding tax in the jurisdiction
of the paying entity.
Changes in Tax Law
Inflation Reduction Act. On August 7, 2022,
the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) was enacted into law. Key provisions of the IRA include a 15% book-income alternative
minimum tax on corporations with financial accounting profits over $1 billion and a 1% excise tax on a publicly traded US corporation
for the value of its stock that is repurchased by the corporation during the tax year. We have reviewed the relevant provisions of the
IRA and have determined that as of December 31, 2025, the changes in tax law do not impact the Company.
35
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill
Act ("the Act") was signed into law. The Act makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100 percent
bonus depreciation, domestic research cost expensing, increasing the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit rate to 35 percent from
25 percent for qualifying assets and making modifications to the international tax framework. The Act includes multiple effective dates,
with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others phased in through 2027. We continue to evaluate the impact of the Act’s provisions
that will take effect in future years.
15. Subsequent Events
The Company has completed its subsequent events
evaluation for the period subsequent to the balance sheet date of December 31, 2025, through March 11, 2026, the date the consolidated
financial statements were available to be issued.

Vantage Group Holdings Ltd.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Nature
of Operations
Vantage Group Holdings
Ltd. (the “Company” or “Vantage” or “we” or “our”) is a privately held Bermuda-exempted
company that provides property, casualty, and specialty (re)insurance through its wholly owned subsidiaries and provides underwriting
services to a registered collateralized insurer and segregated accounts company in Bermuda. The Company was incorporated on July 28,
2020, and is majority owned by funds managed by The Carlyle Group, Inc. (“Carlyle”) and Hellman & Friedman LLC
(“H&F”). The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries, located in Bermuda and the United States, are described below:
Vantage Risk Ltd.
(“VRL”), a Bermuda domiciled company, provides property, casualty, and specialty (re)insurance on a worldwide basis.
Vantage Risk Specialty
Insurance Company (“VRSIC”), domiciled in Delaware, is a property and casualty insurance company which operates as an excess
and surplus lines insurance company.
Vantage Risk Assurance
Company (“VRAC”), domiciled in Delaware, is a property and casualty insurance company which writes business on an admitted
basis in 49 U.S. states.
On December 17,
2025, a subsidiary of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the Company from the Company’s
current shareholders, including Carlyle and H&F. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to customary
regulatory approvals.
2. Basis
of Presentation
The accompanying
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“GAAP”). These statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP
for complete financial statements. The interim financial data as of March 31, 2026 and for the three months ended March 31,
2026 is unaudited. In the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results
for the interim period. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly
owned subsidiaries and any variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary.
All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three months ended March 31,
2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate actual results could differ, possibly materially, from those estimates.
Amounts are presented in United States of America (“U.S.”) Dollars. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the 2026 presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025,
the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU updates the capitalization framework
for internal-use software development costs to reflect current development practices. It replaces the concept of project stages with
a recognition threshold based on whether completion is probable. The ASU also modifies guidance for website development costs and aligns
disclosure requirements for capitalized software costs with those for property, plant, and equipment.
The ASU is
effective for all entities for fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is
permitted. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. The Company is
currently evaluating the potential impact of the new standard on its financial statements and anticipates finishing this evaluation
before the effective date.

Total gross unrealized
losses represented approximately 2.0% and 2.4% of the aggregate fair value of the related securities as of March 31, 2026, and December 31,
2025, respectively. The total gross unrealized losses are comprised of 701 and 448 individual securities as of March 31, 2026, and
December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company concluded that for these securities, the gross unrealized losses during the three months
ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, were related to noncredit factors and therefore, did not recognize any credit-related
losses during the related periods. Additionally, the Company currently does not intend to and is not required to sell these investments
prior to an anticipated recovery in value.

4. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined
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.
FASB ASC Topic
“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” prescribes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to the respective valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to valuation techniques that use at least one significant input that is unobservable
(Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
· Fair
values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices obtained from active
markets for identical assets or liabilities for which the Company has access at the measurement
date. The fair value is determined by multiplying the quoted price by the quantity held by
the Company.
· Fair
values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize attributes (other than quoted prices included
in Level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets,
and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such
as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals, broker
quotes and certain pricing indices; and
· Level
3 inputs are based all or in part on significant unobservable attributes for the asset or
liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the
asset or liability. In these cases, significant management assumptions are used to establish
management’s best estimate of the assumptions used by other market participants in
determining the fair value of the asset or liability.
In certain cases,
the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair
value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that
is significant to the fair value measurement of the asset. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to
the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and the Company considers factors specific to the asset.
In order to determine
if a market is active or inactive for a security, a number of factors are considered, including, but not limited to, the spread between
what a seller is asking for a security and what a buyer is bidding for the same security, the volume of trading activity for the security
in question, the price of the security compared to its par value (for fixed maturity investments), and other factors that may be indicative
of market activity.
11
There have been
no material changes in the valuation techniques, nor have there been any transfers into or out of Level 3 during the years presented
in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Below is a summary of the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of the dates indicated:

Level 1 and 3 Securities
The Company had no Level
1 or 3 securities as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Level 2 Securities
The Company values
Level 2 securities using various observable market inputs obtained from a pricing service. The pricing service prepares estimates of
fair value measurements for the Company’s Level 2 securities using proprietary valuation models based on techniques such as matrix
pricing which include observable market inputs. The fair value measurements and disclosures guidance defines observable market inputs
as the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed on market data obtained from sources independent
of the Company. The extent of the use of each observable market input for a security depends on the type of security and the market conditions
at the balance sheet date. Depending on the security, the priority of the use of observable market inputs may change as some observable
market inputs may not be relevant or additional inputs may be necessary. The Company uses the following observable market inputs (“standard
inputs”), listed in the approximate order of priority, in the pricing evaluation of Level 2 securities: benchmark yields, reported
trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market
research data.
12
The following describes
the significant inputs generally used to determine the fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities by asset class:
U.S. government
and government agency securities – U.S. government and government agencies and authorities’ securities are priced by
the Company’s independent pricing service utilizing standard inputs.
Asset-backed
securities – valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors
with an immaterial amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined through the use of pricing
models which use spreads to determine the appropriate average life of the securities. These spreads are generally obtained from the new
issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers who trade in the relevant security market.
U.S. Corporate
securities – valuations provided by independent pricing services, substantially all through index providers and pricing vendors
with an immaterial amount through broker-dealers. The fair values of these securities are generally determined using the spread above
the risk-free yield curve. These spreads are generally obtained from the new issue market, secondary trading and from broker-dealers
who trade in the relevant security market.
Foreign government
securities – valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing
vendors. The fair values of these securities are generally based on international indices or valuation models which include daily observed
yield curves, cross-currency basis index spreads and country credit spreads.
Municipal securities
– valuations provided by independent pricing services, with all prices provided through index providers and pricing vendors. The
fair values of these securities are generally determined using spreads obtained from broker dealers who trade in the relevant security
market, trade prices and the new issue market.
Short-term investments
- valuations provided by independent pricing services, generally determined using the spread above the risk-free yield curve.
Valuation models
used by independent pricing services can change from period to period, depending on the appropriate observable inputs that are available
at the balance sheet date to price a security.
Financial Instruments Disclosed,
But Not Carried, at Fair Value
The Company uses
various financial instruments in the normal course of its business. The Company’s (re)insurance contracts are excluded from the
fair value of financial instruments accounting guidance, unless the Company elects the fair value option. The carrying values of cash
and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, certain other assets, certain other liabilities, and other financial instruments approximated
their fair values. The fair value of the fixed maturity security HTM was $9.5 million, as of December 31, 2025. The fair value was
based on an internal model that incorporates maturity date (expected in 2028), scheduled interest payments and a net present value factor,
and is considered a Level 3 measurement.
Fair value measurements on a non-recurring
basis
The Company measures
the fair value of certain assets on a non-recurring basis, generally quarterly, annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. These assets include certain fixed assets and intangible assets.
5. Variable Interest Entities and
Noncontrolling Interests
AdVantage Reinsurance Bermuda Ltd.
Effective December 14,
2020, AdVantage Reinsurance Bermuda Ltd. (f/k/a AdVantage Retro I Ltd.) (“AdVantage”) was incorporated under the laws of
Bermuda and is a registered Collateralized Insurer and Segregated Accounts Company. AdVantage operates utilizing segregated accounts
to maintain separation of investor funds.
13
AdVantage is considered
a VIE because it has equity at risk with non-substantive voting rights.
AV0002
As of March 31,
2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company held a 50% participating, non-voting interest in a segregated account (“AV0002”).
As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company is the primary beneficiary of AV0002, and it has power over the activities
that most significantly impact the economic performance of the account. As a result, the Company consolidates AV0002, and all intercompany
transactions have been eliminated.
As of March 31,
2026, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet included total assets and liabilities attributable to AV0002 of $30.2 million (including
$23.9 million of cash and cash equivalents) and $13.5 million respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s consolidated
balance sheet included total assets and liabilities attributable to AV0002 of $30.2 million (including $23.7 million of cash and cash
equivalents) and $13.7 million, respectively. The results of AV0002 are recorded a quarter in arrears due to the availability of financial
information.
The Company accounts
for the portion of AV0002 equity attributable to third party investors in the shareholders’ equity section of its consolidated
balance sheets as noncontrolling interest. The noncontrolling ownership in AV0002 preference shares was approximately 50% at March 31,
2026 and December 31, 2025. The portion of AV0002 income attributable to third party investors is recorded in the consolidated statements
of operations in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest.
AV0004, AV0005 and AV0006
AdVantage formed
segregated accounts AV0004 (“AV0004”), AV0005 (“AV0005”), and AV0006 (“AV0006” and each of AV0004,
AV0005, and AV0006, a “Segregated Account”) in connection with third-party investors on November 15, 2023, November 1,
2024, & October 30, 2025 respectively. Pursuant to separate Reinsurance Services Agreements among an applicable Segregated
Account, AdVantage, VRL and AdVantage Capital Advisors Ltd., a registered and licensed insurance agent in Bermuda (“ACA”),
VRL (in the case of AV0004 only) and ACA sourced risk on behalf of such Segregated Account, to match the risk and return appetite of
the applicable third-party investors. As of March 31, 2026, separate quota share arrangements between each Segregated Account and
VRL represented a variable interest of the Company in AV0004, AV0005, and AV0006; however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary
of AV0004, AV0005 or AV0006, so they are not consolidated by the Company.
There are three revenue components
for the Company associated with AV0004, AV0005, and AV0006:
· AV0004,
AV0005, AV0006 cede to VRL, and VRL assumes from them a 2.2% quota share of AV0004, AV0005and
AV0006’s liabilities and premiums under each reinsurance agreement entered into by
AV0004, AV0005, and AV0006 that is sourced by VRL or ACA pursuant to the applicable Reinsurance
Services Agreement, subject to a cap.
· VRL
and ACA provide certain underwriting and related services to AV0004 and ACA provides certain
underwriting services to AV0005 and AV0006, and each Segregated Account pays VRL and/or ACA,
as applicable, a fixed quarterly fee based on such Segregated Account’s share capital
and reinsurance capital deployed.
· AV0004,
AV0005, and AV0006 may also pay VRL and/or ACA, as applicable, a variable fee based on their
performance calculated one month following the earlier of (i) the end of the last-expiring
risk period under all relevant reinsurance agreements and (ii) commutation of all relevant
reinsurance agreements. This variable fee will be trued up every three months thereafter
until final amounts are known.
The 2.2% quota
share contracts are recorded as assumed premiums and recognized ratably over the term of the underlying reinsurance agreements. The quarterly
fees for services provided to AV0004, AV0005, and AV0006 are recognized over time in the period the relevant services are provided on
a proportional basis that corresponds to the time elapsed on the applicable underlying reinsurance contract term. The variable fee was
considered fully constrained and thus the transaction price at inception was zero. Management revisited this estimate at the reporting
date and accrued for fees likely to be achievable.
14
For the three months
ended March 31, 2026, net earned premiums include $1.6 million for AV0005 and $1.3 million for AV0006 related to the 2.2% quota
share agreements. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, fee and other income (losses) includes $9.2 million for AV0005 and
$6.8 million for AV0006 related to fixed and variable fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net earned premiums include
$1.6 million for AV0004 and $1.5 million for AV0005 related to the 2.2% quota share agreements. For the three months ended March 31,
2025, fee and other income (losses) includes $(15.3) million for AV0004 and $2.8 million for AV0005 related to fixed and variable fees.
Because AdVantage
is an independent company, the assets of AdVantage can be used only to settle obligations of AdVantage and AdVantage is solely responsible
for its own liabilities and commitments. The Company’s financial exposure to AdVantage is limited to its investment in AdVantage’s
preference shares, VRL’s participation on a stop-loss reinsurance arrangement provided to AV0002, VRL’s quota share arrangements
provided to AV0004, AV0005 and AV0006, and counterparty credit risk (mitigated by collateral) arising from certain reinsurance cessions
from VRL to AV0002. The Company has not provided any financial or other support to AdVantage that it is not contractually required to
provide.
6. Reserves for claims and claim
expenses
The Company believes
the most significant accounting judgment made by management is its estimate of claims and claim expense reserves. Claims and claim expense
reserves comprise case and IBNR reserves.
As claims and claim
expense reserves are estimates, the Company’s actual losses incurred may be more or less than the Company’s previously developed
estimates, which is referred to as either unfavorable or favorable development, respectively.
The following table presents
a reconciliation of claims and claim expense reserves during the periods indicated:

Exhibit 99.3
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL
INFORMATION
On June 4, 2026, Howard Hughes Holdings Inc.
(the “Company” or “HHH”) completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares
of capital stock of Vantage Group Holdings, Ltd., a Bermuda exempted company with liability limited by shares (“Vantage”)
for $2.1 billion (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was completed pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement entered into
on December 17, 2025. In connection with the closing of the Acquisition, the Company also issued $1.0 billion of its non-interest-bearing
preferred stock to Pershing Square Holdings, Ltd. (the “Preferred Stock Issuance”, and together with the Acquisition,
the “Transactions”).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended and should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has
been derived from:
· HHH’s audited consolidated financial statements
and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2025, as included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”);
· HHH’s unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as included in its Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2026, filed with the SEC;
· Vantage’s audited consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2025.
· Vantage’s unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for three months ended March 31, 2026.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
information gives effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred (i) as of March 31, 2026 for purposes of the unaudited
pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, and (ii) as of January 1, 2025 for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed
combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Pro forma adjustments for the Transactions were made primarily to reflect:
· the Acquisition;
· the Preferred Stock Issuance;
· transaction costs and fees incurred as a result of the Transactions
· changes in the carrying values of certain assets
and liabilities to reflect their estimated fair values at the date of closing of the Acquisition, including values assigned to intangible
assets and reserves for claims and claim expenses and related changes in intangible assets amortization expenses; and
· the effect of the above adjustments on income
taxes.
The Acquisition will be accounted for using the
acquisition method of accounting. The pro forma information presented, including the allocation of the purchase price, is based on preliminary
estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, available information as of the date of this Form 8-K/A
Filing and our assumptions. The final purchase price allocation is dependent on, among other things, the finalization of the preliminary
asset and liability valuations. The actual adjustments to the combined financial statements upon the closing of the Acquisition will depend
on a number of factors, including additional information available and the actual balance of our net assets on the closing date. Therefore,
the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and the differences may be material. Any final adjustments will change
the allocation of the purchase price, which could affect the fair value assigned to the assets and liabilities and could result in a change
to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial data, including a change to goodwill.

(1) Reflects
the following adjustments to cash and cash equivalents:
Acquisition purchase price
$ (2,099,992 )
HHH transaction expenses
(25,602 )
Transaction accounting adjustments to cash and cash equivalents
$ (2,125,594 )
Redeemable preferred stock issued by HHH to Pershing Square Holdings, Ltd
$ 995,764
Financing adjustments to cash and cash equivalents
$ 995,764
In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued $1.0 billion
of redeemable preferred stock, which has been reflected in temporary equity in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined
balance sheet. The Company incurred $4.2 million of costs related to the issuance of the redeemable preferred stock, which are reflected
as a reduction of the gross proceeds in temporary equity in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. The redeemable preferred
stock is non-interest bearing, non-voting, other than customary protective provisions, ranks pari passu with the Company's common stock
with respect to payment rights and liquidation, and is entitled to dividends only if declared by the majority of disinterested directors
of the Board.
(2) Reflects the estimated goodwill from the preliminary purchase price allocation as of March 31, 2026,
resulting from the Acquisition. For purposes of determining the purchase price allocation, the fair market value of tangible and intangible
assets acquired, and liabilities assumed were estimated as of March 31, 2026. Except for the specific fair value adjustments discussed
in the notes hereto, we have concluded that the historical carrying value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed reflect fair value.
The final purchase price allocation will be based on an appraisal subsequent to the consummation of the Acquisition and any change in
the final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed could materially affect the amount of recorded
goodwill.
The preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:
Acquisition purchase price
$ 2,099,992
Allocated to:
Net investment in real estate

Preliminary allocation to goodwill
$ 304,293
Upon completion of the fair value assessment
after the Acquisition, it is anticipated that the ultimate purchase price allocation will differ from the preliminary assessment outlined
above. Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities will be recorded as adjustments
to those assets and liabilities and residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill.
(3) Represents the adjustment to reclassify Vantage’s historical deferred tax asset of $24.8 million
from other assets, net to deferred tax liabilities, net. This amount has been reclassified as the differences between the book and tax
basis created through purchase accounting has resulted in a net deferred tax liability position. The table below illustrates the tax implications
from the pro forma adjustments. The estimate of deferred tax liability is preliminary and subject to change based on the final determination
of the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities by jurisdiction.

The fair value assigned to the identifiable
intangible assets has been estimated based on a preliminary analysis as of March 31, 2026. The final purchase price allocation will
be based on certain valuation and other studies that have yet to progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive
measurement. The final valuation may result in a materially different allocation for intangible assets than that presented in this unaudited
pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. Any change in the amount of the final purchase price allocated to amortizable, finite-lived
intangible assets could materially affect the amount of amortization expense.

(2) The following table represents adjustments to Insurance underwriting expenses for the year ended December 31,
2025, reflecting (i) the elimination of Vantage’s historical amortization of deferred acquisition costs of $94.5 million and
(ii) the inclusion of $268.2 million of amortization related to valuation of business acquired (“VOBA”), resulting in
a pro forma net increase of $173.8 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the adjustment to Insurance underwriting expenses
reflects only $6.7 million of VOBA amortization. As historical deferred acquisition costs were treated as fully amortized during 2025,
there is no deferred acquisition cost adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

(4) Reflects an adjustment to income taxes due to the pro forma
adjustments calculated by applying the U.S. statutory tax rate. Because the tax rate used for these unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial statements is not reflective of the planned tax structure post-Acquisition, it will likely vary from the actual rate in periods
subsequent to the Transactions and such variance may be material. In addition, the pro forma income tax benefit is preliminary, is based
on estimates and assumptions that are subject to change, and further analysis subsequent to the consummation of the Acquisition could
materially affect the income tax expense or benefit associated with the Transactions.

(6) Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing
net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed
after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares.
The dilutive effect of options and non-vested restricted stock issued under stock-based compensation plans is computed using the treasury
stock method. The redeemable preferred stock issued in connection with the transaction is not subject to mandatory or cumulative dividends
or periodic accretion to its redemption amount during the periods presented. Because no dividends were declared or assumed to have been
declared during the pro forma periods, no adjustment to income attributable to common shareholders or earnings per share is necessary
