Disclosure 2 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, such forward-looking statements may be identified by terms such as believe, expect, seek, may, will, should, intend, project, anticipate, plan, estimate, guidance or similar words. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although it is not possible to identify all of these risks and uncertainties, they include, among others, the following: the inherent uncertainty of estimating reserves and the possibility that incurred losses may be greater than our estimate used to compute loss and loss adjustment expense reserves; inaccurate estimates and judgments in our risk management may expose us to greater risks than intended; downgrades in the financial strength rating or outlook of our regulated insurance subsidiaries impacting our competitive position and ability to attract and retain insurance business that our subsidiaries write and ultimately our financial condition; the potential loss of key members of our management team or key employees, and our ability to attract and retain personnel; adverse economic and competitive factors resulting in the sale of fewer policies than expected or an increase in the frequency or severity of claims, or both; the impact of a higher than expected inflationary environment on our reserves, loss adjustment expenses, the values of our investments and investment returns, and our compensation expenses; exposure to credit risk, interest rate risk and other market risk in our investment portfolio and our reinsurers; reliance on a select group of brokers and agents for a significant portion of our business and the impact of our potential failure to maintain such relationships; reliance on a select group of customers for a significant portion of our business and the impact of our potential failure to maintain, or decision to terminate, such relationships; our ability to obtain insurance and reinsurance coverage at prices and on terms that allow us to transfer risk, adequately protect our Company against financial loss and that supports our growth plans; losses resulting from reinsurance counterparties failing to pay us on reinsurance claims, insurance companies with whom we have a fronting arrangement failing to pay us for claims, or a former customer with whom we have an indemnification arrangement failing to perform its reimbursement obligations, and our potential inability to demand or maintain adequate collateral to mitigate such risks; the inherent uncertainty of estimating reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses and the possibility that reinsurance may be less than our estimate of reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses; inadequacy of premiums we charge to compensate us for our losses incurred; changes in laws or government regulation, including tax or insurance laws and regulations; changes in U.S. tax laws (including associated regulations) and the interpretation of certain provisions applicable to insurance/reinsurance businesses with U.S. and non-U.S. operations, which may be retroactive and could have a significant effect on us including, among other things, by potentially increasing our tax rate, as well as on our shareholders; in the event we did not qualify for the insurance company exception to the passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) rules and were therefore considered a PFIC, there could be material adverse tax consequences to an investor that is subject to U.S. federal income taxation; the Company or its foreign subsidiary becoming subject to U.S. federal income taxation; a failure of any of the loss limitations or exclusions we utilize to shield us from unanticipated financial losses or legal exposures, or other liabilities; losses from catastrophic events, such as natural disasters and terrorist acts, which substantially exceed our expectations and/or exceed the amount of reinsurance we have purchased to protect us from such events; potential effects on our business of emerging claim and coverage issues; the potential impact of internal or external fraud, operational errors, systems malfunctions or cyber security incidents; our ability to manage our growth effectively; failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended; changes in our financial condition, regulations or other factors that may restrict our subsidiaries’ ability to pay us dividends; and an adverse result in any litigation or legal proceedings we are or may become subject to. Additional information about these risks and uncertainties, as well as others that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, is contained in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this release and the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information to reflect changes in assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events, or otherwise.

8 Selective Growth Driven by Strong ERM & Underwriting Discipline James River has grown cautiously, driven by a strong ERM and underwriting culture, with selective account and risk reductions ✓ Under our CEO’s leadership, we have strengthened our underwriting culture, emphasizing discipline and risk selection.

10 Reinsurance Strategy Provides Meaningful Volatility Mitigation • The combination of limit profile, underwriting discipline and reinsurance strategy yields meaningful protection across our E&S book, most notably in our Excess Casualty sub segment. • 80% of our E&S policy counts have gross limits below $1 MM. • In excess casualty, 98% of our policy counts gross limits are $5 MM or less. • We have constructed a diverse panel of high-quality reinsurers to support the E&S segment in particular, a majority of which have supported us for many years. • 75% of the panel is rated A or better, and 100% at least A- or better or fully collateralized. • In Casualty E&S, we currently cede a minimum of 30% to a maximum of 80% of the limit, depending upon the line of business. • Excess Casualty is at the higher end of this range with an average cession of 74%, or $4.4 MM. • Excess Casualty is at the lower end of the range with respect to the average net retention of 26%, or $1.6 MM. • We purchase both quota share and excess of loss structures. • Reduces the Company’s net exposure as policy limits increase. • Provides expansive access to reinsurance marketplace appetite - enabling both a balanced and stable purchasing strategy over time. • Protects the Company on a per risk basis in addition to aggregated protection. • Alongside a maturing enterprise risk management framework, numerous improvements in portfolio monitoring and proactive changes in underwriting appetite compliment the Company’s reinsurance purchasing strategy. • Our E&S product offering enables timely reaction to market shifts – facilitated by many feedback loops between claims, underwriting and actuarial to leverage this product flexibility – and continue to actively manage (and risk manage) our portfolio.

As a result of this, the E&S segment retention is 54%. This includes total exposure to any one primary casualty claim of $694,000 and $1.98 million for any one excess casualty occurrence. It also purchases $20 million of limit in property catastrophe reinsurance (or, at the 1: 1,000 level), limiting retained limit per event to $5 million). All third party reinsurance inures to the benefit of these LPTs. 1) $116.2 million of gross aggregate limit remains across two adverse development covers, providing coverage across all E&S casualty reserves inclusive of accident years 2010 through 2023, except those related to the Uber/Raiser LPT.

Appendix: Underwriting Performance Ratios & Non-GAAP Reconciliation


 
Underwriting Performance Ratios 19 Source: Company filings. Note: During the first quarter of 2025, due to adverse trends on business subject to the commercial auto LPT agreement, the Company recognized adverse prior year development of $0.1 million. The Company recorded retroactive reinsurance benefits of $2.0 million in loss and loss adjustment expenses and a deferred retroactive reinsurance gain of $1.9 million on the Balance Sheet. Note: The above table provides the underwriting performance ratios of the Company inclusive of the business subject to retroactive reinsurance accounting. There is no economic impact to the Company over the life of a retroactive reinsurance contract so long as any additional losses subject to the contract are within the limit of the contract and the counterparty performs under the contract. Retroactive reinsurance accounting is not indicative of our current and ongoing operations.
