MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Fellow Shareholders,
Global Indemnity delivered excellent growth and profitability in 2025. Our fortress
balance sheet and digital transformation have us ready to accelerate.
2025 Performance
We maintained underwriting discipline while hitting key milestones:
Gross Written Premium: $401.4 million (up 9.2%)*
Pre-Tax Adjusted Operating Contribution: $95.4 million (up 17.5%)
Accident Year Combined Ratio: 92.2%**
Adjusted ROE (Insurance): 14.7%
Net Investment Income: $62.7 million (up 127% since 2022)
*Excludes terminated products. **Excludes California wildfires.
Synergy in Action
A year ago, we separated distribution from capital to become more nimble. It is working.
Katalyx Holdings (Distribution & Underwriting)
Placed 130,000 policies through 350 wholesale agents and 3,300 retail agents.
Penn-America wrote $256 million in premium with an exceptional 49.6% loss ratio.
Vacant Express & Collectibles expanded distribution and grew submissions double-digits.
Founded Valyn Re, helping our Assumed E&S business grow by 76.7%.
Belmont Holdings (Capital)
$700 million book value with zero debt.
$284 million in discretionary capital well above what is required for our A AM Best rating.
$1.4 billion high-grade, liquid investment portfolio.
Operational Alpha: The Kaleidoscope Platform
We are chasing Operational Alpha superior returns driven by internal e ciency and our own
technology.
The rollout of our Kaleidoscope Platform in 2026 will drive our expense ratio from the high 30s down
to the low 30s. It allows us to integrate large wholesalers in days rather than months, providing the
foundation for double-digit premium growth.
The Way Forward
Since our 2003 IPO, we have returned $650 million to shareholders, fully repaid $300 million of debt,
and generated $284 million of discretionary capital, as well as grown book value from $114 million to
$703 million. We remain focused on the niches where our data and speed give us a winning edge.
Our investments in people and technology will continue to drive value through 2026 and beyond.
Sincerely,
Saul A. Fox, Chairman
