FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ALLIED WORLD REPORTS INCREASE IN NET INCOME DESPITE INCREASED INDUSTRY
LOSS ACTIVITY; ANNOUNCES $500 MILLION SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
LOSS ACTIVITY; ANNOUNCES $500 MILLION SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
PEMBROKE, BERMUDA, May 6, 2010 Allied World Assurance Company Holdings, Ltd (NYSE:
AWH) today reported net income of $133.7 million, or $2.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter
of 2010 compared to net income of $131.4 million, or $2.57 per diluted share, for the first quarter
of 2009. The company reported operating income of $61.3 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, for
the first quarter of 2010 compared to operating income of $137.6 million, or $2.69 per diluted
share, for the first quarter of 2009.
President and Chief Executive Officer Scott Carmilani commented, I am pleased to report that
Allied World continued to grow book value in the first quarter of 2010 despite continued
competitive pricing pressures and some significant catastrophic loss activity that occurred
throughout the world. Thanks to our underwriting discipline, strong and stable investment
portfolio and our historically prudent reserving philosophy we were able to grow book value by 3.9%
during the quarter and now have a total capital base in excess of $3.8 billion.
Mr. Carmilani continued, Since our company went public in 2006, we have more than doubled our
total book value and outperformed our peer group over that period. Given the continued soft market
conditions, we are finding it increasingly difficult to find attractive opportunities to deploy
excess capital. Accordingly, our board of directors has authorized us to initiate a share
repurchase program of up to $500 million over the next two years. Based upon the average closing
price of our shares over the past 30 days, this plan would equate to a repurchase of over 20% of
our common shares outstanding. We believe this authorization gives us additional financial
flexibility to manage the companys capital as we work to continue to meet shareholder expectations
both in terms of operating returns and growth in book value per share.
Underwriting Results
Gross premiums written were $504.2 million in the first quarter of 2010, a 5.1% increase compared
to $479.6 million in the first quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily due to increased
new business in our reinsurance and U.S. insurance segments offset by the non-renewal of business
in all three of our operating segments which did not meet our underwriting requirements (which
included inadequate pricing and/or terms and conditions). The growth in the reinsurance segment
included higher gross premiums written in our international reinsurance business during the first
quarter of 2010.
Net premiums written were $433.3 million in the first quarter of 2010, a 7.0% increase compared to
$405.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. The increase in net premiums written was primarily
due to higher gross premiums written as well as a reduction of premiums ceded.
Net premiums earned in the first quarter of 2010 were $338.3 million, a 4.4% increase compared to
$324.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. This increase was driven by increased net premiums
written in the current and prior periods, as well as the impact of the $9.3 million commutation of
certain swing-rated reinsurance contracts that were fully earned.
The combined ratio was 99.5% in the first quarter of 2010 compared to 75.0% in the first quarter of
2009. The loss and loss expense ratio was 68.6% in the first quarter of 2010 compared to 45.8% in
the first quarter of 2009. During the first quarter of 2010, the company recorded net favorable
reserve development on prior loss years of $73.9 million, a benefit of 21.8 percentage points to
the companys loss and loss expense ratio for the quarter. Absent prior year reserve adjustments,
the loss and loss expense ratio related to the first quarter of 2010 was 90.4%, compared to 64.4%
for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in the loss and loss expense ratio for the first
quarter of 2010 was primarily due to losses from the earthquake in Chile of $65 million as well as
losses of $21.5 million from other major loss events in the quarter. These items contributed 25.6
points to the current loss years loss and loss expense ratio.
The companys expense ratio was 30.9% for the first quarter of 2010 compared to 29.2% for the first
quarter of 2009 due to an increase in both the companys acquisition cost ratio and general and
administrative expense ratio. Our acquisition cost ratio increased to 12.1% for the first quarter
of 2010 compared to 11.5% for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in the acquisition cost
ratio was primarily due to the increase in net premiums earned in our U.S. insurance and
reinsurance segments, which typically have higher acquisition costs than our international
insurance segment, and represented a greater proportion of earned premiums in the first quarter of
2010 compared to the same period in 2009. Our general and administrative expense ratio increased
to 18.8% for the first quarter of 2010 compared to 17.7% for the first quarter 2009. The increase
in our general and administrative expense ratio was primarily due to increases in our overall staff
count and related increases in incentive compensation expenses.
Investment Results
The total return on the companys investment portfolio for the first quarter of 2010
was approximately 1.8% which annualizes to 7.3%.
Net investment income in the first quarter of 2010 was $68.9 million, a decrease
of 11.5% from the $77.9 million of net investment income in the first quarter of 2009. The
decrease was primarily the result of lower reinvestment yields on our fixed maturity securities. Annualized book yield for the
first quarter of 2010 was 3.7%, versus the annualized book yield of 4.6% in the first quarter of
2009.
The company recorded net investment gains of $77.5 million for the first quarter of 2010 comprised
of $45.3 million in net realized gains primarily from the sale of debt securities and $32.2 million
related to the mark-to-market adjustments of our hedge fund investments and debt securities that
are carried as trading on our balance sheet.
As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, net accumulated unrealized gains were $142.3 million
and $149.8 million, respectively.
Shareholders Equity
As of March 31, 2010, shareholders equity was $3.3 billion, a 3.9% increase compared to $3.2
billion as of December 31, 2009, primarily driven by strong investment returns.
The companys annualized net income return on average shareholders equity for the first quarter of
2010 was 17.1% and the annualized operating return on average shareholders equity for the first
quarter of 2010 was 7.8%.
As of March 31, 2010, diluted book value per share was $61.59, an increase of 3.4% compared to
$59.56 as of December 31, 2009.
Quarterly Dividend
Allied World announced today that its board of directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20
per common share. The dividend will be payable on June 10, 2010 to shareholders of record on May
25, 2010.
Share Repurchase Program
Allied World announced today that its board of directors has authorized the company to repurchase
up to $500 million in the companys common shares through a share repurchase program. Repurchases
may be effected from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions,
tender offers or otherwise. This authorization is effective through May 3, 2012. The timing, form
and amount of the share repurchases under the program will depend on a variety of factors,
including market conditions, the companys capital position, legal requirements and other factors.
At any time, the repurchase program may be modified, extended or terminated by the board of
directors.
Investment Supplement
Allied World will be providing additional information on its investment portfolio as of March 31,
2010. This information will be available at the Investor Relations section of the companys
website at www.awac.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In presenting the companys results, management has included and discussed in this press release
certain non generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures within the
meaning of Regulation G as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Management
believes that these non-GAAP measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, better
explain the companys results of operations in a manner that allows for a more complete
understanding of the underlying trends in the companys business. However, these measures should
not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP).
Operating income is an internal performance measure used in the management of the companys
operations and represents after-tax operational results excluding, as applicable, net realized
investment gains or losses, net impairment charges recognized in earnings, impairment of intangible
assets and foreign exchange gain or loss. The company excludes net realized investment gains or
losses, net impairment charges
recognized in earnings and net foreign exchange gain or loss from the
calculation of operating income because the amount of these gains or losses is heavily influenced
by and fluctuates in part according to the availability of market opportunities and other factors.
The company excludes impairment of intangible assets as these are non-recurring charges. The
company believes these amounts are largely independent of our business and underwriting process and
including them distorts the analysis of trends in operations. In addition to presenting net income
determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the company believes that showing operating income enables
investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of the companys financial information to more
easily analyze our results of operations in a manner similar to how management analyzes underlying
business performance. Operating income should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net
income.
The company has included diluted book value per share because it takes into account the effect of
dilutive securities; therefore, the company believes it is a better measure of calculating
shareholder returns than book value per share.
Annualized net income return on average shareholders equity (ROAE) is calculated using average
shareholders equity, excluding the average after tax unrealized gains (or losses) on investments.
Unrealized gains (losses) on investments are primarily the result of interest rate and risk premium
movements and the resultant impact on fixed income securities. Such gains (losses) are not related
to management actions or operational performance, nor are they likely to be realized. Therefore,
the company believes that excluding these unrealized gains (losses) provides a more consistent and
useful measurement of operating performance, which supplements GAAP information. In calculating
ROAE, the net income (loss) available to shareholders for the period is multiplied by the number of
such periods in a calendar year in order to arrive at annualized net income (loss) available to
shareholders. The company presents ROAE as a measure that is commonly recognized as a standard of
performance by investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information.
Annualized operating return on average shareholders equity is calculated using operating income
(as defined above and annualized in the manner described for net income (loss) available to
shareholders under ROAE above), and average shareholders equity, excluding the average after tax
unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Unrealized gains (losses) are excluded from equity for
the reasons outlined in the annualized net income return on average shareholders equity
explanation above.
Reconciliations of these financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are
included in the attached tables.
