Sirius International Insurance Group, Ltd.
Basis of Presentation and Cautionary Statements
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES:
Sirius International Insurance Group, Ltd. (the “Company”) is a Bermuda exempted company whose principal businesses are conducted through its wholly-owned insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries and other affiliates (collectively with the Company, “Sirius Group”, “we,” “our” and “us”). Sirius Group provides multi-line insurance and reinsurance on a worldwide basis.
We have made rounding adjustments to reach some of the figures included in this financial supplement and, unless otherwise indicated, percentages presented in this financial supplement are approximate.
In presenting Sirius Group’s results, management has included and discussed non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted book value, Adjusted book value per share, Adjusted tangible book value, Adjusted tangible book value per share and Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, which may be defined and calculated differently by other companies, better explain and enhance the understanding of the Company’s results of operations. However, these measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’).  A reconciliation of Adjusted book value, Adjusted book value per share, Adjusted tangible book value, Adjusted tangible book value per share and Operating (loss) income attributable to common shareholders to the most comparable GAAP measures is included in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:
This financial supplement may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by forward-looking terminology such as "plan," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "target," "continue," "could," "may," "might," "will," "possible," "potential," "predict," "should," "would," “seeks,” “likely” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the management of the Company and speak only as of the date of this document. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
Sirius Group's exposure to unpredictable catastrophic and casualty events and unexpected accumulations of attritional losses;
increased competition from existing insurers and reinsurers and from alternative capital providers, such as insurance-linked funds and collateralized special purpose insurers;
decreased demand for Sirius Group's insurance or reinsurance products, consolidation and cyclical changes in the insurance and reinsurance industry;
the inherent uncertainty of estimating loss and loss adjustment expenses reserves, including asbestos and environmental reserves, and the possibility that such reserves may be inadequate to cover Sirius Group's ultimate liability for losses;
a decline in or withdrawal of Sirius Group’s operating subsidiaries' ratings with rating agencies;
the exposure of Sirius Group's investments to interest rate, credit, equity risks and market volatility, which may limit Sirius Group's net income and may affect the adequacy of its capital and liquidity;
losses related to cyber-attacks on Sirius Group's information technology systems;
the impact of various risks associated with transacting business in foreign countries, including foreign currency exchange-rate risk and political risks on investments in, and revenues from, Sirius Group's operations outside the U.S.;
the possibility that Sirius Group may become subject to additional onerous governmental or regulatory requirements or fail to comply with applicable regulatory and solvency requirements;

1




Sirius Group's significant deferred tax assets may become materially impaired as a result of insufficient taxable income or a reduction in applicable corporate tax rates or other change in applicable tax law;
a decrease in the fair value of Global A&H and/or Sirius Group’s intangible assets may result in future impairments;
the limited liquidity and trading of the Company’s securities;
CMIG International Holding Pte. Ltd.’s status as a controlling shareholder, including its affiliates' liquidity issues, and actions taken by CMIG International Holding Pte. Ltd. or any other parties in interest in connection with such liquidity issues including ownership changes;
Sirius Group’s status as a publicly traded company, foreign private issuer and controlled company;
the consequences of the written resolution of Sirius Group's controlling shareholder which may prohibit the Board of Sirius Group from issuing any form of equity without shareholder approval; and
other risks identified in Sirius Group’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions made by the management of the Company prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, Sirius Group undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, or new information, data or methods, future events or other circumstances after the date of this financial supplement.

Sirius International Insurance Group, Ltd.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted book value, Adjusted book value per share, Adjusted tangible book value, and Adjusted tangible book value per share

Adjusted book value, Adjusted book value per share, Adjusted tangible book value, and Adjusted tangible book value per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted book value and Adjusted book value per share are used to show the Company’s total worth on a per-share basis and are useful to management and investors in analyzing the intrinsic value of the Company. Adjusted tangible book value and Adjusted tangible book value per share are useful to investors because they measure the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding the impact of goodwill, intangible assets, and net deferred liability on intangible assets.

Adjusted shares outstanding is derived by summing Common shares outstanding, Series B preference shares outstanding, and the earned portion of share-based compensation awards. Adjusted book value is derived by summing Total common shareholders’ equity, the Series B preference share amount reflected in mezzanine equity, and the Earned portion of future proceeds from stock option awards. Outstanding warrants are excluded as they are anti-dilutive as of the respective reporting dates. Adjusted tangible book value is derived by subtracting Goodwill, Intangible assets and Net deferred tax liability on intangible assets from Adjusted book value.

At December 31, 2019, Adjusted book value, Adjusted book value per share, Adjusted tangible book value, and Adjusted tangible book value per share include the earned effects of share-based compensation awards issued during 2019. 

Adjusted book value per share is derived by dividing the Adjusted book value by the Adjusted shares outstanding. Adjusted tangible book value per share is derived by dividing Adjusted tangible book value by the Adjusted shares outstanding.

Sirius International Insurance Group, Ltd.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders
The Company uses Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders as a measure to evaluate the underlying fundamentals of its operations and believes it to be a useful measure of its core performance. Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders as used herein differs from net (loss) attributable to common shareholders, which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, net foreign exchange gains (losses) and the associated income tax expense or benefit. The Company’s management believes that Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders is useful to investors because it is more reflective of the Company’s core business, as it removes the variability arising from fluctuations in the Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio, equity investments trading, investments-related derivatives, and net foreign exchange gains (losses) and the associated income tax expense or benefit of those fluctuations. The following is a reconciliation of net (loss) attributable to common shareholders to Operating (loss) attributable to common shareholders:

Adjustment for income tax expense (benefit) represents the income tax expense (benefit) associated with the adjustment for net realized and unrealized losses (gains) on investments and the income tax expense (benefit) associated with the adjustment for net foreign exchange gains (losses). The income tax impact is estimated by applying the statutory rates of applicable jurisdictions, after consideration of other relevant factors.
