E&S Property Market Share American Coastal Insurance Corporation We believe the admitted market in Florida makes sense for most habitational risks due to the FHCF and the individual rating of risk over $5m of TIV. For all other states and risks that are ineligible for the FHCF in Florida or require an AM Best rated carrier, the E&S market represents the best path to sustainable underwriting profitability.

ACES unlocks tremendous potential growth opportunities over time. Our preliminary E&S strategy will focus on underwriting commercial property via Skyway Underwriters in Florida, South Carolina and Texas utilizing a fronting carrier partner with an acceptable AM Best rating. Our long-term vision has ACES ultimately becoming a leading specialty commercial property E&S insurer nationwide.

Debt In the long-term, we plan to target ≤25% debt to total capital ratio. We plan to reduce but not fully eliminate our long-term debt upon maturity. Equity When management believes ACIC stock is significantly undervalued, we may participate in stock buybacks. The Board of Directors previously authorized repurchasing up to $25 million of ACIC stock (no buybacks to date). Where the Company determines prudent, we may issue further shares to raise capital in lieu of debt issuance. Dividends When our capital position is in excess of our projected needs, particularly, when we experience lower catastrophe losses than what management considers to be a typical year, a special dividend may be declared for shareholders. As a catastrophe exposed underwriter, we believe this approach provides the Company with a stronger capital position than a regular quarterly dividend.
