Presentation


•	OneBeacon's reportable segments are Specialty Products and Specialty Industries, representing insurance underwriting operations, and Investing, Financing and Corporate.


•	Specialty Products is a collection of niche businesses focused on providing U.S. customers distinct specialty insurance products. Specialty Products includes Healthcare, Management Liability, Financial Services, A.W.G. Dewar, Specialty Property, Environmental, Surety, Programs, Financial Institutions, and Other Professional Lines (which includes Architects and Engineers).


•	Specialty Industries is a collection of niche businesses providing distinct solutions to targeted industry sectors. Specialty Industries includes Entertainment, Inland Marine, Ocean Marine, Technology, Accident, and Government Risks.


•	Investing, Financing and Corporate includes the investing and financing activities for OneBeacon on a consolidated basis, and certain other corporate activities conducted through the top holding company, OneBeacon Insurance Group, Ltd., and its intermediate subsidiaries.

•

The key measure of relative underwriting performance for an insurance company is the combined ratio. The combined ratio is calculated by adding the ratio of incurred loss and loss adjustment expenses ("LAE") to earned premiums (the “loss and LAE ratio”) and the ratio of policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses to earned premiums (the “expense ratio”). A combined ratio under 100% indicates that an insurance company is generating an underwriting profit. However, when considering investment income and investment gains or losses, insurance companies operating at a combined ratio of greater than 100% can be profitable.


•	Net written premiums is an operating metric used by the Company to measure business volume. The metric is calculated by totaling all premium amounts, both direct and assumed, that customers are required to pay for policies that are written, or bound, during the relevant accounting period, less amounts ceded to reinsurance companies.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures


•	This financial supplement includes non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled to their most comparable GAAP financial measures. Management believes these measures to be useful supplements to the comparable GAAP measures in evaluating the Company's financial performance.

•

Operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes net realized and change in unrealized investment gains, and net loss from discontinued operations, and the related tax effects, from net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders. OneBeacon believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides a useful alternative picture of the underlying operating activities of the company to the GAAP measure of net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders, as it removes variability in the timing of realized and unrealized investment gains which may be heavily influenced by investment market conditions and also removes the impact related to discontinued operations. Although key to the company's overall financial performance, OneBeacon believes that net realized and unrealized investment gains are largely independent of the underwriting decision-making process. Management also believes that the impact of operations that have been discontinued are not relevant to evaluating financial performance. The reconciliation of net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders to operating income is included on page 3.

•

Operating income per share is calculated by dividing operating income (a non-GAAP financial measure described above) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Management believes that operating income per share is a useful alternative picture of the underlying operating activities of the company as it removes variability in the timing of investment gains and losses which may be heavily influenced by investment market conditions. Management also believes that the impact of operations that have been discontinued are not relevant to evaluating financial performance. Net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. As described above, the reconciliation of net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders to operating income is included on page 3. The calculation of operating income per share is also included on page 3.

•

Adjusted OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity excluding net unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currencies, after-tax, and accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL), the average of which is used in calculating operating returns, is derived by excluding net unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currencies, after tax, and AOCL, after tax, from OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity. For the reasons described above, OneBeacon believes that it is appropriate to remove the variability in net unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currencies and other comprehensive loss when analyzing certain performance measures. The reconciliation of OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity, the most closely comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity excluding net unrealized gains and losses on investments and foreign currencies, after tax, and AOCL, after tax, is included on page 4.

•

Pre-tax operating income before interest expense on debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents pre-tax income from continuing operations less net realized and change in unrealized investment gains as well as interest expense on debt from pre-tax income from continuing operations. Management believes that pre-tax operating income before interest expense on debt provides a useful alternative picture of the underlying operating activities of the Company to the GAAP measure of pre-tax income from continuing operations, as it removes variability in the timing of investment gains which may be heavily influenced by investment market conditions. Although key to the Company's overall financial performance, management believes that realized and unrealized investment gains are largely independent of the underwriting decision-making process. The reconciliation of pre-tax income from continuing operations to pre-tax operating income before interest expense on debt is included on page 16.

•

Interest coverage is calculated by dividing pre-tax operating income before interest expense on debt (a non-GAAP financial measure described above) by interest expense on debt. Management believes that interest coverage is a useful supplement to understanding the Company's capital position. The reconciliation of the numerator to the most closely comparable GAAP measure is described above. The calculation of interest coverage is included on page 16.
