Balance sheet remains strong with Q3’24 BSCR estimate at 265%Pre-tax estimate of Hurricane Milton losses, net of reinsurance and reinstatement premiums, of approximately $30 million to $40 million Scott Egan, Chief Executive Officer, said: “It has been another strong quarter of delivery for SiriusPoint, marking our eighth consecutive quarter of positive underwriting income. We have delivered a 4.0 point improvement in the combined ratio to 88.5% whilst growing continuing lines premium by 10% during the quarter. Our focus is resolute on building a strong business driven by disciplined underwriting to create a balanced portfolio that creates shareholder value. Our strategic partnerships are a powerful tool to help us deliver our growth and underwriting ambitions. We added six new distribution partnerships in the quarter through our MGA Centre of Excellence, which is earning a reputation in the market as an attractive and leading platform for program administrators and MGAs. Fee income from our two consolidated A&H MGAs grew 18% year to date. Net investment income was strong, at $78m for the quarter, and our FY 24 net investment income is now trending ahead of our previous guidance. We completed on an important two-part strategic transaction with CMIG in the quarter, deploying capital for the purchase and retirement of $125m of common shares and the settlement of Series A Preference Shares, both for cash. Our Q3 BSCR estimate of 265% demonstrates the strength of our balance sheet, and our annualized year to date underlying ROE of 14.4%, which excludes one-off actions, is in line with our medium-term guidance of 12-15% and demonstrates the strength of our earnings. This quarter marks my second full year at SiriusPoint, and I am incredibly proud of the scale and pace of transformation we have achieved so far. This company is and always will be about our people and I am incredibly grateful to them for their relentless dedication and determination to make the company better. Together, we will drive further value through strategic, targeted improvement as we build a sustainable, best-in-class business for the future.” Third Quarter 2024 Highlights Net income available to SiriusPoint common shareholders of $4.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted common shareCore income of $69.5 million, including underwriting income of $62.5 million, Core combined ratio of 88.5%Core net services fee income of $6.8 million, with service margin of 14.1%Net investment income of $77.7 million and total investment result of $92.5 millionBook value per diluted common share increased $0.42 per share, or 2.9%, from June 30, 2024 to $14.73Annualized return on average common equity of 0.7% Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 Highlights Net income available to SiriusPoint common shareholders of $205.2 million, or $1.11 per diluted common shareCore income of $177.9 million, including underwriting income of $143.7 million, Core combined ratio of 91.1%Core net services fee income of $36.3 million, with service margin of 21.2%Net investment income of $234.7 million and total investment result of $195.6 millionBook value per diluted common share increased $1.38 per share, or 10.3%, from December 31, 2023 to $14.73Annualized return on average common equity of 11.4%Debt to capital ratio down to 19.7% compared to 23.8% as of December 31, 2023 ________________________1 See definition in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Financial Metrics” on page 6.

Third Quarter 2024 Summary Consolidated underwriting income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $89.0 million compared to $73.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The improvement was primarily driven by increased favorable prior year loss reserve development and a more favorable commission ratio. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, favorable prior year loss reserve development was $30.6 million from favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in Accident and Health (“A&H”) due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, compared to $24.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the March 2, 2023 loss portfolio transfer transaction (“2023 LPT”). Consolidated underwriting income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $243.7 million compared to $339.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by lower favorable prior year loss reserve development. Favorable prior year loss reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $122.2 million driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the 2023 LPT. Excluding the favorable development linked to the 2023 LPT, underwriting income increased by $19.8 million primarily resulting from favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in A&H and our runoff business, due to lower than expected reported attritional losses. This increase was partially offset by higher acquisition costs from business mix changes, including the growth of Insurance & Services. Reportable Segments The determination of our reportable segments is based on the manner in which management monitors the performance of our operations, which consist of two reportable segments - Reinsurance and Insurance & Services. Collectively, the sum of our two segments, Reinsurance and Insurance & Services, constitute our “Core” results. Core underwriting income, Core net services income, Core income and Core combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. See reconciliations in “Segment Reporting”. We believe it is useful to review Core results as it better reflects how management views the business and reflects our decision to exit the runoff business. The sum of Core results and Corporate results are equal to the consolidated results of operations. Core Premium Volume Three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Gross premiums written decreased by $35.0 million, or 4.8%, to $690.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $725.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Net premiums earned decreased by $29.0 million, or 5.0%, to $546.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $575.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decreases in premiums written were primarily driven by the movement of certain lines from Insurance & Services to Corporate, including the non-renewal of a Workers’ Compensation program and the planned transition of a Cyber program to another carrier. These decreases were partially offset by increases in Reinsurance from Property and International Specialty and increases from Insurance & Services from strategic organic and new program growth. Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Gross premiums written decreased by $177.0 million, or 6.8%, to $2,413.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $2,590.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net premiums earned decreased by $104.7 million, or 6.1%, to $1,617.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $1,722.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decreases in premium volume were primarily due to the movement of certain lines from Insurance & Services to Corporate, including the non-renewal of a Workers’ Compensation program and the planned transition of a Cyber program to another carrier, with the most significant offset being strategic organic and new program growth within Insurance & Services. Core Results Three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Core results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 included income of $69.5 million compared to $50.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 consists of underwriting income of $62.5 million (88.5% combined ratio) and net services income of $7.0 million, compared to underwriting income of $42.5 million (92.5% combined ratio) and net services income of $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The improvement in net underwriting results was primarily driven by favorable prior year loss reserve development and a more favorable commission ratio, partially offset by higher catastrophe losses. Losses incurred included $29.7 million of favorable prior year loss reserve development for the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily resulting from favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in A&H due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, compared to $12.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the 2023 LPT. Catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance and reinstatement premiums, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, were $10.6 million, or 1.9 percentage points on the combined ratio, including $10.0 million from Hurricane Helene, compared to $6.7 million, or 1.2 percentage points on the combined ratio, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which includes losses of $3.8 million from the Hawaii wildfires and $3.3 million from Hurricane Idalia. Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Core results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 included income of $177.9 million compared to $245.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 consists of underwriting income of $143.7 million (91.1% combined ratio) and net services income of $34.2 million, compared to underwriting income of $213.2 million (87.6% combined ratio) and net services income of $31.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in net underwriting results was primarily driven by lower favorable prior year loss reserve development. Favorable prior year loss reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $102.4 million driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the 2023 LPT. Excluding the favorable development linked to the 2023 LPT, net underwriting income increased by $27.7 million primarily driven by favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends, as well as favorable development in A&H due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, partially offset by higher acquisition costs from business mix changes, including the growth of Insurance & Services. Reinsurance Segment Three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Reinsurance gross premiums written were $314.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $49.1 million, or 18.5%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by increases in Bermuda and New York Property and International Specialty, partially offset by lower premiums written in New York Casualty. Reinsurance generated underwriting income of $41.6 million (84.6% combined ratio) for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to underwriting income of $36.9 million (85.6% combined ratio) for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in net underwriting results was primarily driven by lower attritional losses and favorable commission ratio, partially offset by higher catastrophe losses. Catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance and reinstatement premiums, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, were $11.3 million or 4.2 percentage points on the combined ratio, including $10.0 million from Hurricane Helene, compared to $6.8 million or 2.6 percentage points on the combined ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which includes losses of $3.8 million from the Hawaii wildfires and $3.3 million from Hurricane Idalia. Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Reinsurance gross premiums written were $1,023.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $4.1 million, or 0.4%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by increases in International Specialty, partially offset by lower premiums written in New York Casualty and Bermuda Specialty. Reinsurance generated underwriting income of $106.5 million (86.3% combined ratio) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to underwriting income of $178.4 million (77.4% combined ratio) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in net underwriting results was primarily due to decreased favorable prior year loss reserve development as the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $90.6 million driven by reserving analyses performed in connection with the 2023 LPT. Net favorable prior year loss reserve development was $33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily driven by favorable development in Property, mainly driven by reserve releases relating to favorable COVID-19 development trends. Insurance & Services Segment Three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Insurance & Services gross premiums written were $376.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $84.1 million, or 18.3%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by the movement of certain lines from Insurance & Services to Corporate, including the non-renewal of a Workers’ Compensation program and the planned transition of a Cyber program to another carrier, representing $98.0 million of gross premiums written for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as well as lower A&H premiums, partially offset by strategic organic and new program growth. Insurance & Services generated segment income of $27.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to income of $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Segment income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 consists of underwriting income of $20.9 million (92.4% combined ratio) and net services income of $7.0 million, compared to underwriting income of $5.6 million (98.3% combined ratio) and net services income of $7.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The improvement in underwriting results was primarily driven by net favorable prior year loss reserve development of $13.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, mainly in A&H due to lower than expected reported attritional losses, compared to net adverse prior year loss reserve development of $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, mainly in Workers’ Compensation. Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Insurance & Services gross premiums written were $1,390.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $181.1 million, or 11.5%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by the movement of certain lines from Insurance & Services to Corporate, including the non-renewal of a Workers’ Compensation program and the planned transition of a Cyber program to another carrier, representing $331.8 million of gross premiums written for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as well as lower A&H premiums, partially offset by strategic organic and new program growth. Insurance & Services generated segment income of $71.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to income of $69.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Segment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 consists of underwriting income of $37.2 million (95.6% combined ratio) and net services income of $34.2 million, compared to underwriting income of $34.8 million (96.3% combined ratio) and net services income of $34.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The improvement in underwriting income of $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by lower attritional losses in A&H. Investments Three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Total net investment income and realized and unrealized investment gains for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to net investment income related to interest income from our debt and short-term investment portfolio of $81.5 million. Increased investment income is primarily due to increased interest rates and our rotation of the portfolio from cash and cash equivalents and U.S. government and government agency positions to high-grade corporate debt and other securitized assets, in an effort to better diversify our portfolio. Total net investment income and realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to investment results from our debt and short-term investment portfolio of $71.0 million driven by dividend and interest income primarily on U.S. treasury bill and corporate debt positions. Nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 Total net investment income and realized and unrealized investment gains (losses) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to net investment income related to interest income from our debt and short-term investment portfolio of $228.5 million, partially offset by unrealized losses on other long-term investments of $45.8 million. Increased investment income is primarily due to increased interest rates and our rotation of the portfolio from cash and cash equivalents and U.S. government and government agency positions to high-grade corporate debt and other securitized assets, in an effort to better diversify our portfolio. Losses on private other long-term investments were the result of updated fair value analyses consistent with the current insurtech market trends and disposals of positions as we execute our strategy to focus on underwriting relationships with MGAs. Total net investment income and realized and unrealized investment gains for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to net investment income related to interest income from our debt and short-term investment portfolio of $208.5 million. Increased dividend and investment income is due to the ongoing re-positioning of the portfolio to focus on investing in high grade fixed income securities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Financial Metrics In presenting SiriusPoint’s results, management has included financial measures that are not calculated under standards or rules that comprise accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). SiriusPoint’s management uses this information in its internal analysis of results and believes that this information may be informative to investors in gauging the quality of SiriusPoint’s financial performance, identifying trends in our results and providing meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Core underwriting income, Core net services income, Core income, and Core combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes it is useful to review Core results as it better reflects how management views the business and reflects the Company’s decision to exit the runoff business. Tangible book value per diluted common share is also a non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure is book value per common share. Tangible book value per diluted common share excludes intangible assets. Management believes that effects of intangible assets are not indicative of underlying underwriting results or trends and make book value comparisons to less acquisitive peer companies less meaningful. Tangible book value per diluted common share is useful because it provides a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding intangible assets. Underlying net income and underlying annualized return on equity on average common shareholders’ equity ("ROE") are non-GAAP financial measures. Underlying net income excludes gains (losses) on strategic investments and liability-classified capital instruments, income (expense) related to loss portfolio transfers and development on COVID-19 reserves. Underlying ROE is calculated by dividing annualized underlying net income available to SiriusPoint common shareholders for the period by the average common shareholders’ equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI"). Management believes it is useful to review underlying net income as it better reflects how it views the business and exclude AOCI because it may fluctuate significantly between periods based on movements in interest and currency rates. Reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP figures are included in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, as applicable.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS & OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES Non-GAAP Financial Measures Core Results Collectively, the sum of the Company's two segments, Reinsurance and Insurance & Services, constitute "Core" results. Core underwriting income, Core net services income, Core income and Core combined ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to review Core results as it better reflects how management views the business and reflects our decision to exit the runoff business. The sum of Core results and Corporate results are equal to the consolidated results of operations. Core underwriting income - calculated by subtracting loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred, net, acquisition costs, net, and other underwriting expenses from net premiums earned. Core net services income - consists of services revenues which include commissions, brokerage and fee income related to consolidated MGAs, and other revenues, and services expenses which include direct expenses related to consolidated MGAs, services noncontrolling income which represent minority ownership interests in consolidated MGAs. Net services income is a key indicator of the profitability of the Company's services provided. Core income - consists of two components, core underwriting income and core net services income. Core income is a key measure of our segment performance. Core combined ratio - calculated by dividing the sum of Core loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred, net, acquisition costs, net and other underwriting expenses by Core net premiums earned. Accident year loss ratio and accident year combined ratio are calculated by excluding prior year loss reserve development to present the impact of current accident year net loss and loss adjustment expenses on the Core loss ratio and Core combined ratio, respectively. Attritional loss ratio excludes catastrophe losses from the accident year loss ratio as they are not predictable as to timing and amount. These ratios are useful indicators of our underwriting profitability. Tangible Book Value Per Diluted Common Share Tangible book value per diluted common share, as presented, is a non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure is book value per common share. Tangible book value per diluted common share excludes intangible assets. Management believes that effects of intangible assets are not indicative of underlying underwriting results or trends and make book value comparisons to less acquisitive peer companies less meaningful. Tangible book value per diluted common share is useful because it provides a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding intangible assets. The following table sets forth the computation of book value per common share, book value per diluted common share and tangible book value per diluted common share as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023: September 30,2024 December 31,2023 ($ in millions, except share and per share amounts)Common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders$2,494.9 $2,313.9 Intangible assets (143.8) (152.7)Tangible common shareholders' equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders$2,351.1 $2,161.2 Common shares outstanding 161,866,867 168,120,022 Effect of dilutive stock options, restricted share units and warrants 7,547,229 5,193,920 Book value per diluted common share denominator 169,414,096 173,313,942 Book value per common share$15.41 $13.76 Book value per diluted common share$14.73 $13.35 Tangible book value per diluted common share$13.88 $12.47 Other Financial Measures Annualized Return on Average Common Shareholders’ Equity Attributable to SiriusPoint Common Shareholders Annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders is calculated by dividing annualized net income available to SiriusPoint common shareholders for the period by the average common shareholders’ equity determined using the common shareholders’ equity balances at the beginning and end of the period. Annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was calculated as follows: Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, 2024 September 30, 2023 September 30, 2024 September 30, 2023 ($ in millions)Net income available to SiriusPoint common shareholders$4.5 $57.5 $205.2 $245.3 Common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders - beginning of period 2,504.1 2,036.0 2,313.9 1,874.7 Common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders - end of period 2,494.9 2,050.0 2,494.9 2,050.0 Average common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders$2,499.5 $2,043.0 $2,404.4 $1,962.4 Annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity attributable to SiriusPoint common shareholders 0.7% 11.3% 11.4% 16.7%
