As of June September 30, 2026, White Mountains conducted its operations through five reportable segments: (1) Ark/WM Outrigger, (2) Kudu, (3) HG Global, (4) Distinguished and (5) WTM Partners, with its remaining operating businesses, holding companies and other assets included in Other Operations. Beginning in second quarter of 2026, in conjunction with its recent acquisitions, WTM Partners is presented as a separate reportable segment. White Mountains has made its segment determination based on consideration of the following criteria: (i) the nature of the business activities of each of the Company's subsidiaries and affiliates; (ii) the manner in which the Company's subsidiaries and affiliates are organized; (iii) the existence of primary managers responsible for specific subsidiaries and affiliates; and (iv) the organization of information provided to the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and its Board of Directors. See Note 14 — "Segment Information."
The Ark/WM Outrigger segment consists of Ark Insurance Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Ark") and Outrigger Re Ltd. Segregated Account 2023-1 ("WM Outrigger Re") (collectively with Ark, "Ark/WM Outrigger"). Ark is a specialty property and casualty insurance and reinsurance company that offers a wide range of niche insurance and reinsurance products, including property, specialty, marine & energy, casualty and accident & health. Ark underwrites select coverages through Lloyd's Syndicates 4020 and 3902 and Additional Central Settlement Number ("ACSN") 3832 (collectively, the "Syndicates") and its wholly-owned subsidiary Group Ark Insurance Limited ("GAIL"). As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 72.1 % and 72.1 % of Ark on a basic shares outstanding basis ( 62.4 51.9 % and 61.9 % after taking account of management's equity incentives). The decrease in White Mountains's ownership taking account of management's equity incentives relates to new equity incentives granted in the third quarter of 2026 tied to future value creation beginning in 2026. Ark's management equity incentives are structured so that they are subject to a vesting period and participate in Ark's value creation above a compounding return hurdle. The remaining shares are owned by current and former employees of Ark. In the future, management rollover shareholders could earn additional shares in Ark if and to the extent that White Mountains achieves certain thresholds for its multiple of invested capital ("MOIC") return. The liability related to these additional shares is recorded as contingent consideration. If fully earned, these shares would represent an additional 12.4 10.6 % of the shares outstanding as of June September 30, 2026, and White Mountains would own 53.5 45.6 % of Ark on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis. The liability related to these additional shares is recorded as contingent consideration.
White Mountains's fully-diluted/fully-converted ownership percentage understates its economic interest in Ark since the calculation treats management's equity incentives, which are subject to a compounding return hurdle, as if they were full value shares. In the future, Ark may choose to convert vested management equity incentives to basic shares and repurchase certain other management owned shares, which would increase White Mountains's fully-diluted/fully-converted ownership. White Mountains has the majority voting power of Ark's Board of Directors. As a result, White Mountains will continue to control Ark even if its ownership percentage falls below 50.0 %.
Outrigger Re Ltd. is a Bermuda special purpose insurer and segregated accounts company that provides collateralized reinsurance protection on Ark's Bermuda global property catastrophe excess of loss portfolio for underwriting years beginning in 2023. As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 100.0 % of the preferred equity of its segregated cell, WM Outrigger Re, which participated in the 2023 through 2025 underwriting years. White Mountains consolidates WM Outrigger Re in its financial statements. During the fourth quarter of 2025, Ark renewed Outrigger Re Ltd. for the 2026 underwriting year with $ 70.0 million of unaffiliated third-party capital. Ark increased its use of traditional quota share reinsurance for 2026, reducing the need for capacity from Outrigger Re Ltd. For the first six months of 2026, White Mountains received $ 144.9 million of distributions, primarily a return of capital related to its non-renewal for the 2026 underwriting year.
The Kudu segment consists of Kudu Investment Management, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Kudu"). Kudu provides capital solutions for boutique asset and wealth managers for a variety of purposes including generational ownership transfers, management buyouts, acquisition and growth finance and legacy partner liquidity. Kudu also provides strategic advice to managers from time to time. Kudu's capital solutions are generally structured as noncontrolling equity interests in the form of revenue and earnings participation contracts ("Participation Contracts") and designed to generate immediate cash yields. As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 91.3 % and 91.2 % of Kudu's basic units outstanding ( 78.4 % and 77.9 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management's equity incentives). White Mountains's fully-diluted/fully-converted ownership percentage understates its economic interest in Kudu since the calculation treats management's equity incentives, which are subject to a compounding return hurdle, as if they were full value shares.
The HG Global segment consists of HG Global Ltd. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "HG Global"). HG Global was established to fund the startup of Build America Mutual Assurance Company ("BAM") and, through its reinsurance subsidiary, HG Re Ltd. ("HG Re"), to provide first-loss reinsurance protection of up to 15 %-of-par outstanding for each policy assumed from BAM. HG Global, together with its subsidiaries, funded the initial capitalization of BAM through the purchase of $ 503.0 million of surplus notes issued by BAM (the "BAM Surplus Notes"). As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 96.9 % of HG Global's preferred equity and 88.4 % of its common equity.
The Distinguished segment consists of WM Phoenix Parent L.P. and its subsidiaries d/b/a Distinguished Programs (collectively, "Distinguished"). Distinguished is a full-service managing general agent ("MGA") and program administrator for specialty property and casualty insurance. Distinguished places insurance across a diversified portfolio of programs broadly grouped into two verticals. The ScaleCo vertical consists of established programs, primarily focused on real estate and hospitality end markets. The GrowthCo vertical consists of start-up programs, focused on a diversified set of specialty property and casualty insurance products across multiple industries. On behalf of its insurance carrier partners, Distinguished manages various aspects of the placement process, including product development, marketing, underwriting and policy issuance. Distinguished earns commissions based on the volume and profitability of the insurance that it places. Distinguished does not retain insurance risk. On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished. See Note 2 — "Significant Transactions." As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, White Mountains owned 55.3 % and 55.5 % of Distinguished on a basic units outstanding basis ( 43.3 % and 43.6 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management's equity incentives). White Mountains's fully-diluted/fully-converted ownership percentage understates its economic interest in Distinguished since the calculation treats management's equity incentives, which are subject to a compounding return hurdle, as if they were full value shares. WM Phoenix GP, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is the general partner of WM Phoenix Parent L.P. As the general partner, White Mountains has control over all activities of Distinguished subject to consent rights held by certain limited partners. As a result, White Mountains will continue to control Distinguished even if its economic interest falls below 50.0 %. See Note 2 15 — "Significant Transactions." "Variable Interest Entities."
The WTM Partners segment consists of White Mountains Partners LLC and its operating companies (collectively, "WTM Partners"). WTM Partners acquires and manages businesses on behalf of White Mountains in non-financial services sectors including essential services, light industrial and specialty consumer. WTM Partners's operating companies include (i) Enterprise Electric, LLC and its subsidiary (collectively, "Enterprise Solutions") and (ii) BaseSix Systems LLC and its subsidiary (collectively, "Basesix"). On April 1, 2025, WTM Partners acquired a controlling financial interest in Enterprise Solutions, a provider of specialty electrical contracting services. On April 1, 2026, WTM Partners acquired a controlling financial interest in Basesix, a low voltage electrical systems integrator. See Note 2 — "Significant Transactions." As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, WTM Partners owned 71.9 % and 65.5 % of Enterprise Solutions on a basic units outstanding basis ( 66.8 % and 59.0 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management's equity incentives). As of June September 30, 2026, WTM Partners owned 84.4 % of Basesix on both a basic units outstanding and basis ( 71.7 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management's equity incentives). White Mountains's fully-diluted/fully-converted ownership percentage understates its economic interests in Enterprise Solutions and Basesix since the calculation treats management's equity incentives, which are subject to a compounding return hurdle, as if they were full value shares.

WTM Partners recognizes product and service revenues, consisting of construction revenues from specialty electrical contracting services and low voltage electrical systems integration services provided to commercial and institutional customers, when it has satisfied its performance obligations and control of the promised goods or services has been transferred to the customer. Product and service revenues are recognized over time using the cost-to-cost percentage of completion input method, based on the ratio of contract costs incurred to date compared to total estimated contract costs. Contract costs incurred to date and expected total contract costs are monitored during the term of the contract. WTM Partners's billings are generally based on contractual terms and may not coincide with its progress in a project. WTM Partners records accounts receivable for amounts billed to the customer, net of a provision an allowance for amounts estimated to be uncollectible receivables, including expected credit losses. If the recognized revenue is greater than the amount billed to the customer, a contract asset is recorded. Contract assets also include amounts billed under retainage provisions that cannot be collected until the contract work has been completed and approved. If the amount billed to the customer is greater than the recognized revenue, a contract liability is recorded.
WTM Partners incurs various expenses directly related to the performance of its construction contracts, which are recorded in cost of sales. These costs consist primarily of materials, salaries and related expenses, costs paid to subcontractors and other direct and indirect job-related costs. These expenses are recognized as incurred.

On September 2, 2025, White Mountains acquired a controlling financial interest in Distinguished (the "Distinguished Transaction"). White Mountains funded the Distinguished Transaction through a combination of cash on hand and new borrowings by Distinguished. White Mountains paid $ 224.8 million of cash consideration, including a post-closing purchase price adjustment of $ 0.5 million. In addition, Distinguished borrowed $ 50.0 million of incremental debt and utilized $ 6.8 million of cash on hand as part of the transaction. At closing, White Mountains owned 55.5 %, inclusive of its 1.7 % previously-held interest, of Distinguished on a basic units outstanding basis ( 43.6 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis, taking account of management's equity incentives). At closing, 4.2 % of the basic units outstanding are owned by Distinguished management ( 24.7 % on a fully-diluted/fully-converted basis). As part of the Distinguished Transaction, WM Phoenix GP, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, became the general partner of Distinguished. As the general partner, White Mountains has control over all activities of Distinguished subject to consent rights held by certain limited partners. As a result, White Mountains will continue to control Distinguished even if its economic interest falls below 50.0 %. See Note 15 — "Variable Interest Entities."
On September 5, 2028, the third anniversary of the closing of the Distinguished Transaction, certain noncontrolling unitholders will have the option to sell additional units representing 31.3 % of Distinguished's basic units outstanding as of June September 30, 2026 to White Mountains at the same unit price paid in the Distinguished Transaction less aggregate per unit distributions. As of June September 30, 2026, the redemption value would be $ 131.5 million if exercised in full. Noncontrolling interests with optional redemption features that are not within White Mountains's control are classified as redeemable noncontrolling interests. See Note 13 — "Noncontrolling Interests." In addition, White Mountains will have the parallel option to purchase such units at 1.35 times the unit price paid in the Distinguished Transaction less aggregate per unit distributions.

For the three and six nine months ended June September 30, 2026, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $ 11.0 19.3 million and $ 19.3 38.6 million and earned premiums of $ 7.7 8.6 million and $ 15.4 24.0 million. For the three and six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, HG Re recognized gross written premiums of $ 19.2 15.9 million and $ 25.9 41.8 million and earned premiums of $ 7.1 7.5 million and $ 15.3 22.8 million.
HG Re is party to an excess of loss reinsurance agreement (the "XOLT") with BAM, under which HG Re provides last-dollar protection for exposures on municipal bonds insured by BAM in excess of the New York State Department of Financial Services ("NYDFS") single issuer limits. As of June September 30, 2026, the XOLT is subject to an aggregate limit equal to the lesser of $ 125.0 million or the assets held in the supplemental collateral trust (the "Supplemental Trust") at any point in time. The XOLT is accounted for using deposit accounting, as the agreement does not meet the risk transfer requirements necessary to be accounted for as reinsurance. Accordingly, any financing revenues related to the XOLT are recorded in other revenues.

On a monthly basis, BAM deposits cash equal to ceded premiums net of ceding commissions, due to HG Re under the FLRT directly into the Regulation 114 Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust target balance is equal to HG Re's unearned premiums and unpaid loss and LAE reserves, if any. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is below the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Supplemental Trust and deposited into the Regulation 114 Trust in an amount equal to the shortfall. If, at the end of any quarter, the Regulation 114 Trust balance is above 102 % of the target balance, funds will be withdrawn from the Regulation 114 Trust and deposited into the Supplemental Trust. The Regulation 114 Trust balance as of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $ 409.3 400.7 million and $ 399.4 million, which consisted of cash, investments and accrued investment income.
The Supplemental Trust target balance is $ 603.0 million, less the amount of cash and securities in the Regulation 114 Trust in excess of its target balance (the "Supplemental Trust Target Balance"). If, at the end of any quarter, the Supplemental Trust balance exceeds the Supplemental Trust Target Balance, such excess may be distributed to HG Re. The distribution will be made first as an assignment of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes and second in cash and/or fixed income securities. For the three and six nine months ended June September 30, 2026, HG Re received a distribution distributions from the Supplemental Trust of $ 13.8 13.5 million and $ 28.8 42.3 million, which consisted of an assignment of $ 6.9 million and $ 14.0 million assignments of accrued interest on the BAM Surplus Notes of $ 6.9 million and a $ 20.9 million and cash distribution distributions of $ 6.9 6.6 million and $ 14.8 21.4 million.

As the BAM Surplus Notes are repaid over time, the BAM Surplus Notes will be replaced in the Supplemental Trust by cash and fixed income securities. The Supplemental Trust balance as of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $ 604.4 591.9 million and $ 607.1 million, which included $ 320.7 313.7 million and $ 323.3 million of cash, investments and accrued investment income, $ 276.8 271.5 million and $ 276.8 million of BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value and $ 6.9 6.7 million and $ 7.0 million of accrued interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes at nominal value.

Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, HG Global received a cash payment of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes of $ 8.0 million. Of this payment, $ 5.3 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $ 0.1 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $ 2.6 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, HG Global received a cash payment of principal and interest on the BAM Surplus Notes of $ 8.0 million. Of this payment, $ 5.6 million was a repayment of principal held in the Supplemental Trust, $ 0.1 million was a payment of accrued interest held in the Supplemental Trust and $ 2.3 million was a payment of accrued interest held outside the Supplemental Trust.
As of June September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the principal balance on the BAM Surplus Notes was $ 271.5 million and $ 276.8 million, for both periods, and total interest receivable on the BAM Surplus Notes was $ 227.5 231.6 million and $ 213.7 million, all at nominal value. For the three and six nine months ended June September 30, 2026, White Mountains accrued $ 6.9 6.8 million and $ 13.8 20.6 million of interest income on the BAM Surplus Notes. For the three and six nine months ended June September 30, 2025, White Mountains accrued $ 7.5 million and $ 15.0 22.5 million of interest income on the BAM Surplus Notes.
Upon the deconsolidation of BAM in July 2024, White Mountains elected the fair value option for the BAM Surplus Notes. The BAM Surplus Notes are classified as a Level 3 measurement. White Mountains values the BAM Surplus Notes each quarter using a discounted cash flow analysis.
The discounted cash flow analysis used to value the BAM Surplus Notes depends on key inputs, such as projections of future revenues and earnings for BAM, expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes through maturity and a discount rate to reflect time value and related uncertainty of the repayment pattern. The expected payments on the BAM Surplus Notes are based on management judgment, considering current performance, budgets and projected future results.
