Non-GAAP Financial Measures • In presenting the Company’s results, management has included and discussed in this presentation 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 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 generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). • Operating Earnings and Operating Earnings per Common Share: In addition to presenting net income determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe that showing operating earnings enables investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of our financial information to more easily analyze our results of operations in a manner similar to how management analyzes our underlying business performance. Operating earnings should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income. Operating earnings are an internal performance measure used in the management of our operations and represents operating results excluding, as applicable on a recurring basis, net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investment, foreign exchange and other gains or losses, amortization of intangible assets and non-cash deferred tax expenses. We exclude net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investment and foreign exchange and other gains or losses as we believe that both are heavily influenced in part by market opportunities and other factors. We do not believe amortization of intangible assets are representative of our ongoing business. We believe all of these amounts are largely independent of our business and underwriting process and including them distorts the analysis of trends in our operations. We also exclude certain non- recurring expenditures that are material to understanding our results of operations. As of the third quarter of 2014, we exclude impairment losses. Beginning in the second quarter of 2014, we exclude our divested E&S business as it has been in run-off for over one year following the sale to Brit effective May 1, 2013. Furthermore, in the Q1 of 2014 and Q2 2011, we exclude the accelerated amortization of the Junior Subordinated Debt discount and the write off of the associated issuance costs. In Q1 2014 and Q4 2013, we also exclude the interest expense incurred on our 2013 Senior Notes prior to the redemption of the outstanding Junior Subordinated Debt given the one time nature of the additional funding cost. For 2011 and 2010, we exclude transaction expenses related to the IIS Acquisition as these are non-recurring. • Operating Return on Average Common Equity ("Operating ROACE"): Management uses operating return on average common shareholders' equity as a measure of profitability that focuses on the return to Maiden common shareholders. It is calculated using operating earnings available to common shareholders (as defined above) divided by average Maiden common shareholders' equity. Management has set as a target a long-term average of 15% Operating ROACE, which management believes provides an attractive return to shareholders for the risk assumed from our business. The repayment of the Junior Subordinated Debt in the first quarter of 2014 is a crucial step in advancing the Company closer to that goal. • See the previous page of this presentation for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures used in this presentation to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.
