Regulation G Disclaimer
In presenting the Company’s results, management has included and discussed certain non-GAAP measures.  Management believes that these non-GAAP measures, which may be
defined differently by other companies, better explain the Company's results of operations in a manner that allows for a more complete understanding of the underlying trends in
the Company's business.  However, these measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with GAAP.  For a complete description of non-GAAP
measures and reconciliations, please review the Investor Financial Supplement on our web site at  www.endurance.bm.
The combined ratio is the sum of the loss, acquisition expense and general and administrative expense ratios.  Endurance presents the combined ratio as a measure that is commonly
recognized as a standard of performance by investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information.  The combined ratio, excluding prior year net loss reserve
development, enables investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information to more easily analyze Endurance’s results of underwriting activities in a manner
similar to how management analyzes Endurance’s underlying business performance.  The combined ratio, excluding prior year net loss reserve development, should not be viewed as
a substitute for the combined ratio.
Net premiums written is a non-GAAP internal performance measure used by Endurance in the management of its operations.  Net premiums written represents net premiums
written and deposit premiums, which are premiums on contracts that are deemed as either transferring only significant timing risk or transferring only significant underwriting risk
and thus are required to be accounted for under GAAP as deposits.  Endurance believes these amounts are significant to its business and underwriting process and excluding them
distorts the analysis of its premium trends.  In addition to presenting gross premiums written determined in accordance with GAAP, Endurance believes that net premiums written
enables investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information to more easily analyze Endurance’s results of underwriting activities in a manner similar to how
management
analyzes
Endurance’s
underlying
business
performance.
Net
premiums
written
should
not
be
viewed
as
a
substitute
for
gross
premiums
written
determined
in
accordance with GAAP.
Return on Average Equity (ROAE) is comprised using the average common equity calculated as the arithmetic average of the beginning and ending common equity balances for
stated periods.  Return on Beginning Equity (ROBE) is comprised using the beginning common equity for stated periods.  The Company presents various measures of Return on Equity
that are commonly recognized as a standard of performance by investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information.

We Are Transforming Our Specialty Insurance and Reinsurance Businesses
Exiting less profitable lines of business while adding new specialty teams and expanding globally
We
will
continue
to
invest
in
our
specialty

teams.
Our
expectation
is
that
reinsurance

will
be
modest
over
the
next
few
years
in
the
current
competitive
environment,
as
we
hire

and
de-emphasize

of

Our
focus
in
the
near

is
to
produce
a

of

Agriculture Insurance is Not Correlated with the P&C Cycle
FCIC reinsurance lowers volatility
Historic MPCI Crop Year Loss Ratio Results
(Pre and Post Federal Retrocessions)
Stable Results in Volatile Times
18
While individual states can produce highly varied gross loss ratios on a year to year basis, the U.S.
Federal reinsurance program has historically mitigated that volatility and leaves ARMtech with a
business which is not correlated to the traditional P&C pricing cycle and has high risk adjusted return
potential.
While individual states can produce large loss ratios,
the U.S. Federal reinsurance program has
historically reduced loss ratio volatility.
ARMtech’s business has historically produced
stable profits over time after reflecting the
reinsurance terms set out in the current
standard crop reinsurance agreement
Historic average loss ratio post U.S. Federal cessions
has been 81.6% [adjusted for the 2011 Federal
reinsurance terms]
The best year was 2007 with a 69.8% net loss ratio
and the worst was 2012 with a 104.0% net MPCI
loss ratio
ARMtech’s current expense run rate after the A&O
subsidy is approximately 6% -

Other Miscellaneous Information


The net loss estimates by zone above represent estimated losses related to our property, catastrophe and other specialty lines of business, based upon our catastrophe models and
assumptions regarding the location, size, magnitude, and frequency of the catastrophe events utilized to determine the above estimates.  The net loss estimates are presented on an
occurrence basis, before income tax and net of reinsurance recoveries and reinstatement premiums, if applicable.  Return period refers to the frequency with which the related size of a
catastrophic event is expected to occur. 
Actual realized catastrophic losses could differ materially from
our net loss estimates and our net loss estimates should not be
considered as representative of the actual losses that
we may incur in connection with any particular catastrophic event.
The net loss estimates above rely significantly on computer models created to simulate the effect of catastrophes on
insured properties based upon data emanating from past catastrophic events.  Since comprehensive data collection regarding insured losses from catastrophe events is a relatively recent
development in the insurance industry, the data upon which catastrophe models is based is limited, which has the potential to introduce inaccuracies into estimates of losses from
catastrophic events, in particular those that occur infrequently.  In addition, catastrophe models are significantly influenced by management's assumptions regarding event characteristics,
construction of insured property and the cost and duration of rebuilding after the catastrophe.  Lastly, changes in Endurance's underwriting portfolio risk control mechanisms and other
factors, either before or after the date of the above net loss estimates, may also cause actual results to vary considerably from the net loss estimates above.  For a listing of risks related to
Endurance and its future performance, please see "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Insurance net written premiums of $191.5 million increased 2.6% from second quarter 2012
-

U.S. Government and third parties and overall agriculture insurance net written premiums grew 25.7%
-
Reduction in professional lines as a result of exiting a program
relationship in late 2012
Reinsurance net written premiums of $273.1 million declined 8.3%
compared to second quarter 2012

profit targets
