David Einhorn, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said, “The investment environment remains difficult for our style and the Solasglas investment portfolio lost 3.2% during the third quarter. Our long positions did not keep up with a strong equity market, while our short positions hurt our overall results. The Company’s best-ever underwriting result helped offset the weak investment results and we continued to buy back our stock at an attractive price.” Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd.

This measure is referred to as a non-GAAP measure. The non-GAAP measure may be defined or calculated differently by other companies. Management believes the measure allows for a more thorough understanding of the Company’s performance. The non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should be used to monitor our results and should be considered in addition to, and not viewed as a substitute for those measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliation of the measure to the most comparable GAAP figures is included in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G.

GREENLIGHT CAPITAL RE, LTD. KEY FINANCIAL MEASURES AND NON-GAAP MEASURES Management uses certain key financial measures, some of which are not prescribed under U.S. GAAP rules and standards (“non-GAAP financial measures”), to evaluate our financial performance, financial position, and the change in shareholder value. Generally, a non- GAAP financial measure, as defined in SEC Regulation G, is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented under U.S. GAAP. We believe that these measures, which may be calculated or defined differently by other companies, provide consistent and comparable metrics of our business performance to help shareholders understand performance trends and facilitate a more thorough understanding of the Company’s business. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for those determined under U.S. GAAP. The key non-GAAP financial measure used in this news release is: • Fully diluted book value per share This non-GAAP financial measure is described below. Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share Our primary financial goal is to increase fully diluted book value per share over the long term. We use fully diluted book value as a financial measure in our incentive compensation plan. We believe that long-term growth in fully diluted book value per share is the most relevant measure of our financial performance because it provides management and investors a yardstick to monitor the shareholder value generated. Fully diluted book value per share may also help our investors, shareholders, and other interested parties form a basis of comparison with other companies within the property and casualty reinsurance industry. Fully diluted book value per share should not be viewed as a substitute for the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, which in our view is the basic book value per share. We calculate basic book value per share as (a) ending shareholders' equity, divided by (b) the total ordinary shares issued and outstanding, as reported in the consolidated financial statements. Fully diluted book value per share represents basic book value per share combined with any dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options (assuming net exercise) and all outstanding restricted stock units, “RSUs”. We believe these adjustments better reflect the ultimate dilution to our shareholders.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the fully diluted book value per share to basic book value per share (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure): September 30,2025 June 30, 2025 March 31, 2025 December 31,2024 September 30,2024 Numerator for basic and fully dilutedbook value per share: Total equity as reported under U.S.GAAP $ 658,889 $ 663,318 $ 666,804 $ 635,879 $ 663,418 Denominator for basic and fully dilutedbook value per share: Ordinary shares issued and outstanding asreported and denominator for basic bookvalue per share 34,099,226 34,198,153 34,557,449 34,831,324 34,832,493 Add: In-the-money stock options andall outstanding RSUs 757,505 775,124 773,938 590,001 602,013 Denominator for fully diluted book valueper share 34,856,731 34,973,277 35,331,387 35,421,325 35,434,506 Basic book value per share $ 19.32 $ 19.40 $ 19.30 $ 18.26 $ 19.05 Fully diluted book value per share $ 18.90 $ 18.97 $ 18.87 $ 17.95 $ 18.72 Assuming net exercise by the grantee.
