I'll now turn the call over to the host of today's call, Ted Goldthorpe, CEO of Mount Logan Capital, and Kevin Rendino, CEO, and Daniel Wolfe, President of 180 Degree Capital. Mr. Goldthorpe, you may begin. Thank you, and good morning, everyone. We are delighted to be here today to discuss the proposed business combination of Mount Logan and 180 Degree Capital. Slide six of the presentation deck presents a summary of why we believe this is a transformative transaction and business combination that has the potential to unlock substantial value for shareholders of both companies. For 180 Degree Capital shareholders and those listening who may not be as familiar with Mount Logan, we are an alternative asset management and insurance solutions platform managing in excess of $2.4 billion of AUM in what we believe to be one of the most attractive alternative asset classes, private credit. Mount Logan is a publicly listed business traded on the Cboe Canada and has been paying a quarterly dividend to our shareholders since 2019. My co-founders and great friends, Matthias Ederer and Henry Wang, and I formed Mount Logan in 2018, and since then, we've built a platform with diverse credit capabilities focused on providing partnership to middle market businesses across key segments of the market and a variety of products, including senior and unitranche lending, opportunistic credit, specialty finance, private and public investment grade, and through the recently announced Runway minority stake acquisition venture lending. On the capital formation side, by organic growth and M&A, Mount Logan has strategically positioned itself in the key areas of focus of asset management: insurance, permanent capital, and resale. We believe the combination announced today is a significant milestone for 180 Degree Capital shareholders, marking the next step in the company's evolution enabled by tremendous turnaround executed by Kevin and Daniel. With the business transitioning into an asset-light operating company structure, most frequently valued on a multiple of operating metrics rather than discounts or premiums to net asset value, we now consider this transformation started in 2017 to be complete. Shortly, I will turn over the call to Kevin and Daniel to introduce 180 Degree Capital and share their perspectives on the combination, but I first want to summarize the key details and highlights of the transaction. The combined company will be called Mount Logan Capital Inc. It's expected to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker MLCI. Both shareholder bases are expected to benefit from a larger company and increased public float than an estimated transaction equity value today in excess of $113 million. The combined company will also move one step closer to Mount Logan's stated goal of becoming a fully diversified manager through the addition of 180 Degree Capital's public markets investment capabilities, helping the expansion of our bespoke private credit addressable market to include structured investments in the publicly listed companies. Finally, the pro forma plans to redeploy capital from 180 Degree Capital's balance sheet into our significant and actionable pipeline of organic and inorganic growth initiatives across our two key business segments to support our shareholder returns. We could not be more excited about the business combination and, more importantly, the addition of Kevin and Daniel to our team. Strong ideological and social fit, combined with their impressive expertise in a new growth area for us, makes them the perfect partner for our company's expansion plans. I will now turn the call over to 180 Degree Capital team to provide background on their business, track record, and further details of the combination before we conclude the call with a discussion around our key operating metrics and why we believe the valuation of our combined business presents significant opportunities for growth of shareholder value into the future. Thanks, Ted. We could not be more excited to finally be able to announce and discuss the proposed merger with our shareholders and to introduce ourselves to the shareholders of Mount Logan. For those that are unfamiliar, 180 Degree Capital is a closed-end fund that trades on the Nasdaq under the symbol TURN. Daniel and I took over management of 180 Degree Capital in 2017, spending ensuing years reorienting the company's illiquid balance sheet of private companies to a liquid balance sheet comprised of public companies and cash. During this process, we developed and executed a new investment strategy of investing in small public companies with a constructive activist approach. Our outperformance of this new investment strategy versus benchmarks in 2017 has today positioned the company to have a strong balance sheet with no debt and a reputation for working diligently with management teams to solve capital structure issues that can unlock value for all stakeholders of a business. Once we remade our balance sheet, our Board began spending significant time considering options in the best interest of shareholders to unlock value that was trapped largely due to how closed-end funds traded discounts to net asset value. The Board also was focused on preserving what we believe is significant upside from all of the assets of the businesses built over the past eight years, which include, one, the portfolio holdings that we currently hold, and two, the process we utilize to work on solutions for public companies by forging close relationships with company management teams and boards. We think what we have achieved to date can be turbocharged with resources of Mount Logan being available for development of more comprehensive financing solutions for investee companies. This deal also allows realization for shareholders to achieve our net asset value while at the same time allowing for a potential significant upside in the merged company. Essentially, instead of our net asset value being a ceiling for shareholders, it now becomes what we think will be a floor. In July 2024, we were introduced to and began discussions with Mount Logan's management team, who also founded and run the credit business for BC Partners, a leading alternative investment manager focused on private equity, credit, and real estate with deep networks across Europe and North America. Through these discussions, we instantly realized similarity of thought process regarding investments, corporate culture, future opportunities for growth, and focus on taking steps to unlock value for our respective shareholders. The result of this proposed merger will be that shareholders will now be material owners of what we believe is a best-in-class private credit asset management with a wholly-owned insurance company arm. Our transaction to an operating company structure also frees investors from looking at our business relative to net assets, and as Ted said, we'll instead focus investors on typical operating metrics of asset managers such as fee-related earnings. This proposed merger is the culmination of options our Board has diligently evaluated to both maximize near-term value and provide the opportunity for future growth for shareholders of 180 Degree Capital. We could not be more pleased and are excited for the future as a merged entity. I'd now like to take the call over to Daniel, who will discuss details of the proposed transaction. Thanks, Kevin. I would like to echo Ted and Kevin regarding our collective excitement for this proposed transaction. We have had the opportunity to spend significant time with Ted and his colleagues during the past six months. We think Mount Logan shareholders are fortunate to have been invested in a company run by what we believe is an incredibly impressive management team that has been in its respective seats since 2018. We believe 180 Degree Capital shareholders will reach the same conclusion as they meet Ted and his colleagues in the coming weeks. I would now like to discuss some of the details of the proposed transaction that can be found on slide seven. The deal, which was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of each company, is structured such that shareholders of each company will receive their proportionate ownership of the merged company, which from now on I will be referring to as new Mount Logan, based on the relative values shown here. Mount Logan's equity is being initially valued at approximately $67.4 million. This valuation is subject to certain adjustments as defined in the merger agreement that is filed publicly with the SEC and SEDAR. It includes the close of the pending announced investment of Runway Growth Capital. 180 Degree Capital will be valued at its full net asset value at the time of closing. The pro forma equity value, if the deal were to close today, would be approximately $113.6 million, which includes $46.2 million of estimated TURN NAV as of January 15th 2025. Ted will be the CEO of the combined company, and we expect new Mount Logan will continue to pay a dividend to shareholders subject to approval by its Board. It is important to note that 180 Degree Capital's current investment portfolio will continue to be actively managed, and we will expect that monetizations will happen naturally and consistent with our historical portfolio turnover. We continue to serve on boards and work with our portfolio company's management teams to unlock value. We currently expect the closing to occur in mid-2025, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory and shareholder approvals. On the shareholder front, we are pleased to note that approximately 20% of the shareholders of each entity have signed voting agreements in support of the transaction. Additional shareholders from both sides have signed letters of support indicating their current expectation to vote in favor of the proposed transaction. On behalf of both companies, we cannot thank each of our respective shareholders enough for their ongoing support and look forward to working tirelessly to create value as a combined company. I'll now turn the call back over to Ted. Thank you, Daniel. Slide eight through 11 provides some additional background on Mount Logan, its management team, and the support we receive and scale we have access to through our service and agreement with BC Partners. Partners and I launched BC Partners Credit in 2017, and we serve as the management team for Mount Logan as well as BC Partners Credit. Similar to Kevin and Daniel, our management team and board own a significant portion of Mount Logan's outstanding shares. Slide 12-15 are critical to demonstrating our excitement around the future for our combined business. Businesses like Mount Logan commonly value the public markets based on multiple fee-related earnings, or FRE. For 180 Degree Capital shareholders, this is an important distinction from the current focus on a discount to net asset value. The transition to an operating company focuses investors on the operations. As you can see on slide 12, on a standalone basis, we currently expect our FRE to grow meaningfully in 2025 based on the full year benefit of growth in fee-paying assets under management and the roll-off of a number of one-time costs in 2024. These estimates are on a standalone basis and do not include what we believe to be a significant upside potential for growth as a combined entity through investment in our insurance business, opportunistic M&A, and other organic initiatives. We also view the ownership of an insurance business within the platform as a powerful tool for organic value creation, as you will see on slides 13 and 14. Our conviction and excitement in our business is driven by the stability and predictability of our fee streams, as well as the built-in organic growth levers, first and foremost with our wholly-owned insurance company Ability. In 2021, we bilaterally negotiated an agreement to acquire an insurance platform with 43 active state licenses, which we viewed as an opportunity to expand our evergreen capital under management, consistent with a theme in the marketplace of asset managers acquiring insurance platforms. Strong asset management capabilities create a positive flywheel effect as attractive returns on the insurance company generate a strong base of retained earnings to sustain further growth of its balance sheet, which in turn provides a large number of permanent assets to manage and an organic engine for FRE growth. Alternative asset managers traded on a multiple of fees generated. Insurance companies within asset managers often traded a multiple of the spread they generate between the yield of its investments, the assets, and the cost of the associated insurance policy contracts, its liabilities, which we call spread-related earnings, or SRE. For Mount Logan, on an IFRS accounting basis, we target a minimum of 1% spread earnings margin on an annualized basis. Since acquired Ability, we repositioned the portfolio and most recently reported a trailing 12-month period ending September 30th 2024, earned a 1.8% SRE margin. As you can see on slide 15, the proposed valuation of the merger sets shareholders up for significant potential value creation that we believe comes from an increase in value through execution and improvement in the multiple of FRE in our business. I note that this analysis conservatively ascribes no value to our non-FRE generating business, mainly insurance, whereby public markets multiples average 7 x SRE. Our trailing 12-month SRE was approximately $11 million, and we currently expect this level of SRE to continue in 2025, subject to any non-cash adjustments from IFRS to GAAP. I earlier referenced the impressive turnaround executed by Kevin and Daniel at 180 Degree Capital that is captured on slide 16. Our excitement about their ability to expand our bespoke credit solutions for the benefit of public companies is captured on slide 17. In conclusion, slide 18 provides a summary of why we believe the combination of Mount Logan and 180 Degree Capital is so compelling. Mount Logan has already prioritized investing in its key asset management and insurance segments. We believe the merger with 180 Degree Capital provides a significant catalyst for business growth and increased value for the benefit of existing and new shareholders. As it cements Mount Logan as a leading publicly traded private credit-focused asset manager with more than $2.4 billion of AUM that benefits from a service and agreement with a blue-chip asset manager in BC Partners, manages an excess of $40 billion in AUM across private equity, credit, and real estate. This transaction not only expands our credit investment breadth and leadership, but also provides us an entry into the U.S. public markets with a larger float and expanded investor base. Thank you all for your time and attention today. Kevin, Daniel, our other colleagues, and I all look forward to connecting with our existing shareholder base, meeting the current shareholders of 180 Degree Capital, and working towards a close of the proposed transaction in mid-2025. As always, the management team of Mount Logan and 180 Degree Capital remain available for follow-ups. I look forward to discussing the transaction, shareholders, and the broader investor community over the coming weeks. We're truly excited for what is to come in Mount Logan Capital and shareholders. We look forward to personally walking you through the vision for our combined business. Thank you. That concludes the conference call for today. Thank you all for joining. You may now disconnect your lines.
