Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. These forward-looking statements may address, among other things, our expected financial and operational results, the related assumptions underlying our expected results and the quotations of management. These forward-looking statements are distinguished by use of words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date of this quarterly report.

Although Enact Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved and it undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Factors or events that we cannot predict, including the following, may cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements:

•inability to continue to maintain the private mortgage insurer eligibility requirements (“PMIERs”) or any other restrictions imposed on us by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), government-sponsored enterprises collectively referred to as the “GSEs”;

•deterioration in economic conditions, a decline in home prices or a severe recession, including from the impact of tariffs and other government economic policies;

•uncertainty around the time loans remain in our delinquent inventory including effects of forbearance programs and foreclosure timing;

•uncertainty of our loss reserve estimates or inaccuracies in our models;

•competition for our customers or the loss of a significant customer;

•changes to the charters or practices of the GSEs, including actions or decisions to decrease or discontinue the use of mortgage insurance;

•lenders or investors seeking alternatives to private mortgage insurance;

•failure of our risk management or loss mitigation strategies;

•risks related to emerging and changing technologies, including artificial intelligence;

•fluctuations in interest rates;

•limited availability of capital and the need to seek additional capital on unfavorable terms;

•limited availability of reinsurance;

•adverse actions by rating agencies;

•competition with government-owned enterprises and GSEs;

•failure to manage the risk in our investment portfolio;

•disruption in the servicing of mortgages covered by our insurance policies or poor servicer performance;

2

•unanticipated claims arising under and risks associated with our delegated underwriting program or contract underwriting program;

•inadequacy of the premiums we charge to compensate for the losses we incur;

•decrease in the volume of Low-Down Payment Loan originations;

•failure to protect our confidential customer information;

•adverse changes in regulatory requirements;

•inability to maintain sufficient regulatory capital;

•risks relating to our continuing relationship with Genworth Financial, Inc.;

•changes in tax laws;

•litigation, regulatory investigations or other actions;

•inability to attract and retain key employees;

•failure or any compromise of the security of our computer systems, disaster recovery systems, business continuity plans and failures to safeguard or breaches of confidential information; and

•occurrence of natural or man-made disasters or public health emergencies, including pandemics and disasters caused or exacerbated by climate change.

We provide additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2026. In addition, unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. We therefore caution you against relying on any forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1)Nature of business, organization structure and basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the accounts of Enact Holdings, Inc. (“EHI,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”). EHI is a subsidiary of Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth”) and has been since EHI’s incorporation in Delaware in 2012. In September 2021, we completed a minority initial public offering (“IPO”) of 18.4% of EHI’s common stock.

We are engaged in the business of writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance. The insurance protects lenders and investors against certain losses resulting from nonpayment of loans secured by mortgages, deeds of trust, or other instruments constituting a lien on residential real estate. We offer private mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“primary mortgage insurance”). Our primary mortgage insurance enables borrowers to buy homes with a down payment of less than 20% of the home’s value. Primary mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment mortgage loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are sold to government-sponsored enterprises. We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination.

We also perform fee-based contract underwriting services for mortgage lenders. The provision of underwriting services by mortgage insurers eliminates the duplicative lender and mortgage insurer underwriting activities and expedites the approval process.

We operate our business through our primary insurance subsidiary, Enact Mortgage Insurance Corporation, (“EMICO”), with operations in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. EMICO is an approved insurer by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises, and we refer to them collectively as the “GSEs.”

We also offer mortgage and credit-related insurance and reinsurance through our other subsidiaries, including investing in new opportunities for Enact. One of these subsidiaries, Enact Re Ltd. ("Enact Re"), our wholly owned Bermuda-based subsidiary, also reinsures EMICO’s new and existing insurance in-force under quota share reinsurance agreements.

We operate our business in a single segment, which is how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

(2)Accounting changes

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

We have not adopted new accounting pronouncements in 2026.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement Disaggregation

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses included in our consolidated statements of income, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. This guidance is effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, related to accounting for internal-use software costs. The new guidance modified the cost capitalization threshold by removing project development stages and adding evaluation considerations to the probable-to-complete threshold, as well as requiring additional disclosure of internal-use software and related amortization regardless of how the internal-use software is classified on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the table above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the unrealized losses are largely due to changes in interest rates and recent market volatility and are not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.

For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell, nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

(4)Fair value

Recurring fair value measurements

We hold fixed maturity securities, which are carried at fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including asset-backed securities), an income or combination approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.

Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.

Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include

(Unaudited)

rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs, and therefore be classified as Level 2. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2026.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities and short-term investments based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.

Third-party pricing services

In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, approximately 91% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of March 31, 2026. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

Internal models

A portion of our Level 2 U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $230.4 million and $82.5 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.

Level 3 measurements

Broker quotes

A portion of our non-U.S. corporate and other asset-backed securities are valued using broker quotes. Broker quotes are obtained from third-party providers that have current market knowledge to provide a reasonable price for securities not routinely priced by pricing services. Brokers utilized for valuation of assets are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by broker quotes was $22.6 million as of March 31, 2026.

Internal models

A portion of our U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The primary inputs to the valuation of the bond population include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which includes significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage

(1)The transfers into and out of Level 3 for fixed maturity securities were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in the observability of external information used in determining the fair value, such as external ratings or credit spreads.

Purchases, sales, and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period.

The amount presented for realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in net income for fixed maturity securities primarily represents amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on certain fixed maturity securities recorded within net investment income.

The liability for loss reserves represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could possibly be significant, and result in future increases to reserves by amounts that could be material to our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Losses incurred related to insured events of the current accident year relate to defaults that occurred in that year and represent the estimated ultimate amount of losses to be paid on such defaults. Losses incurred related to insured events of prior accident years represent the (favorable) or unfavorable development of reserves as a result of the actual rates at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”) and claim amounts being different than those we estimated when originally establishing the reserves. These estimates are based on our historical experience, which we believe is representative of expected future losses at the time of estimation. As a result of the extended period of time that may exist between the reporting of a delinquency and the claim payment, as well as changes in economic conditions and the real estate market, significant uncertainty and variability exist on amounts ultimately paid.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, losses and LAE incurred of $79 million related to insured events of the current accident year was primarily attributable to new delinquencies compared to $78 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we also recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $39 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $47 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

(6)Reinsurance

We reinsure a portion of our policy risks to third parties in order to reduce our ultimate losses, diversify our exposures and comply with regulatory requirements. We also assume certain policy risks written by other companies.

Reinsurance does not relieve us from our obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations, we remain liable for the reinsured claims. We monitor both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions, activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of default by such reinsurers.

The following table sets forth the effects of reinsurance on premiums written and earned for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Net premiums written:
Direct	$	263,310	$	263,081
Assumed	9,631		7,305
Ceded	(36,466)		(32,761)
Net premiums written	$	236,475	$	237,625
Net premiums earned:
Direct	$	270,195	$	270,242
Assumed	9,121		7,305
Ceded	(36,466)		(32,761)
Net premiums earned	$	242,850	$	244,786

The difference between written premiums of $236.5 million and earned premiums of $242.9 million represents the decrease in unearned premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The decrease in unearned premiums in both periods was primarily the result of premiums earned over time coupled with low originations of our single premium mortgage insurance product.

Excess-of-loss reinsurance

We engage in excess-of-loss (“XOL”) insurance transactions either through a panel of traditional reinsurance providers or through collateralized reinsurance with unaffiliated special purpose insurers (“Triangle Re Entities”). During the respective coverage periods of these agreements, EMICO retains the first layer of aggregate loss exposure on covered policies while the reinsurer provides the second layer of coverage, up to the defined reinsurance coverage amount. EMICO retains losses in excess of the respective reinsurance coverage amount.

The Triangle Re Entities fully collateralize their coverage by issuing insurance-linked notes (“ILNs”) to eligible capital market investors in unregistered private offerings. Traditional reinsurance providers collateralize a portion of their coverage by holding funds in trust. We believe that the risk transfer requirements for reinsurance accounting were met as these XOL insurance transactions assume significant insurance risk and a reasonable possibility of significant loss.

EMICO has rights to terminate the ILNs or traditional XOL reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.

Quota Share Reinsurance

EMICO engages in quota share reinsurance agreements with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Under the agreements, we cede a percentage of premiums earned, claims and claims expenses on eligible policies. The agreements also include a specific ceding commission and profit commission determined based on ceded claims. EMICO has rights to terminate the reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events. Reinsurance recoverables are recorded in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

semi-annually on May 28 and November 28 at a rate of 6.25% per year, beginning on November 28, 2024, and will mature on May 28, 2029.

At any time, or from time to time, prior to April 28, 2029 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the 2029 Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points less interest accrued to the redemption date, and (ii) 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The 2029 Notes contain customary events of default which, subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding notes if we breach the terms of the indenture.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On September 30, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2025 Revolving Credit Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million, to replace our then-outstanding $200 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2022 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility includes the ability for EHI to increase the commitments on an uncommitted basis, by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $217.5 million. Borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility will accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at EHI’s option, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins are based on the ratings established by certain debt rating agencies for EHI’s senior unsecured debt. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility matures in September 2030, but under certain conditions EHI may need to repay any outstanding amounts and terminate the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility earlier than the maturity date.

We may use borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERs compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility has remained undrawn through March 31, 2026.

(8)Income taxes

We compute the provision for income taxes on a separate return with the benefits-for-loss method. If during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had computed taxes using the separate return method, the provision for income taxes would have been unchanged.

(9)Related party transactions

We have various agreements with Genworth that provide for reimbursement to and from Genworth of certain administrative and operating expenses that include, but are not limited to, information technology services and administrative services (such as finance, human resources and employee benefit administration). These agreements provide for an allocation of corporate expenses to all Genworth businesses or subsidiaries. We incurred costs for these services of $2.0 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The investment portfolios of our insurance subsidiaries are primarily managed by Genworth. Under the terms of the investment management agreement, we are charged a fee by Genworth. All fees paid to Genworth are charged to investment expense and are included in net investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The total investment expenses paid to Genworth were $1.9 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Our employees participate in certain benefit plans sponsored by Genworth and certain share-based compensation plans that utilize shares of Genworth common stock and other incentive plans.

We paid cash dividends of $24.1 million and $22.8 million to Genworth in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The amount and timing of future dividends will be based upon the prevailing and prospective macro-economic conditions, regulatory landscape and business performance and remain subject to required approvals. We paid Genworth $75.4 million and $53.0 million related to shares repurchased in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

We have a tax sharing agreement in place with Genworth, such that we participate in a single U.S. consolidated income tax return filing. All intercompany balances related to this agreement are settled at least annually.

Share Repurchase Program

On May 1, 2024 and April 30, 2025, we announced repurchase authorizations that allowed for the repurchase of $250 million and $350 million, respectively, excluding commissions, of EHI common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. On February 3, 2026, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to an additional $500 million of EHI’s common stock. Under the programs, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, Enact has entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares as part of the program to maintain Genworth’s current ownership interest in Enact. The programs do not obligate EHI to acquire any amount of common stock, may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and do not have a specified expiration date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased 2,291,215 shares at an average price of $40.66 per share, excluding commissions, compared to 1,962,023 shares at an average price of $33.38 per share, excluding commissions, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, $467.9 million remained available under the share repurchase program. All treasury stock has been retired as of March 31, 2026.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company purchased 700,434 shares at an average price of $42.56 per share through April 30, 2026.

(13)Segment Reporting

We operate our business in a single reportable segment, Mortgage Insurance, which is how our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources. We derive revenue primarily through writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance in the United States. We manage our single segment on a consolidated basis, and our reported measure of segment profit or loss is consolidated net income.

The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets in deciding how to reinvest profits into the core business, or into other parts of the entity, such as new business initiatives or to return capital to shareholders. Net income is also considered in our competitive analysis and financial planning processes.

Our significant segment expenses are those disclosed on our condensed consolidated statements of income and our measure of segment assets are those reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”).

In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. Factors that could cause such differences are discussed in the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward-looking statements or other statements we may make in the following discussion or elsewhere in this document even though these statements may be affected by events or circumstances occurring after the forward-looking statements or other statements were made. Future results could differ significantly from the historical results presented in this section. References to “EHI,” “Enact,” “Enact Holdings,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” herein are, unless the context otherwise requires, to EHI on a consolidated basis.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results

There have been no material changes to the factors affecting our results, as compared to those disclosed in the Annual Report, other than the impact of items as discussed below in “—Trends and Conditions.”

Trends and Conditions

Macroeconomic environment. During the first quarter of 2026, the United States economy continued to be subject to significant volatility and uncertainty, largely related to geopolitical tensions including the Iran conflict, changing economic policies, and continued inflationary pressure. The ancillary effects of these factors on the domestic and global economies could materially impact the United States housing markets and our business.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported in March 2026 that Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) inflation was 3.3% year-over-year compared to 2.7% year-over-year in December 2025 while the unemployment rate has fallen slightly to 4.3% in March 2026 from 4.4% in December 2025. Elevated inflation remains a challenge for the Federal Open Market Committee as it navigates heightened uncertainty.

U.S. mortgage rates were especially volatile during the first quarter of 2026. Lower rates earlier in the quarter drove higher refinance volume in the market, while the mortgage origination market remained relatively slow, particularly as rates rose later in the quarter. Over the past few years, housing affordability has deteriorated as elevated mortgage rates and home price appreciation outpaced median family income according to the National Association of Realtors Housing Affordability Index. Despite slowing of house price growth nationally according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) Monthly Purchase-Only House Price Index (Seasonally Adjusted), affordability remains challenged.

Regulatory developments. Private mortgage insurance market penetration and eventual market size are affected in part by actions that impact housing or housing finance policy taken by the GSEs and the U.S. government, including but not limited to, the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and the FHFA. In the past, these actions have included announced changes, or potential changes, to underwriting standards, including changes to the GSEs’ automated underwriting systems, FHA pricing, GSE guaranty fees, loan limits and alternative products.

In July 2025, the FHFA announced that it will implement the acceptance of VantageScore 4.0 for mortgages delivered to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The GSEs have since released preliminary

30

implementation details and timelines, but the full impact of this initiative on our business, processes and financial results remains uncertain.

Competitive environment. The U.S. private mortgage insurance industry is highly competitive. Our market share is influenced by the execution of our go to market strategy, including but not limited to, pricing competitiveness relative to our peers and our selective participation in forward commitment transactions. We continue to manage the quality of new business through pricing and our underwriting guidelines, which are modified from time to time when circumstances warrant. We see the market and underwriting conditions, including the pricing environment, as being within our risk-adjusted return appetite enabling us to write new business at attractive returns. Ultimately, we expect our new insurance written with its strong credit profile and attractive pricing to positively contribute to our future profitability and return on equity.

Our portfolio. New insurance written (“NIW”) of $12.8 billion in the first quarter of 2026 increased 30% compared to the first quarter of 2025. The increase is largely driven by refinance volume in the first quarter. Changes in NIW are primarily impacted by the size of the mortgage insurance market and our market share. Our primary persistency rate was 80% during the first quarter of 2026 and 84% for the first quarter of 2025. The persistency rate decreased largely due to lapse, driven by mortgage rate volatility and increased refinance activity.

Net earned premiums decreased modestly in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily as a result of higher ceded premiums and lapse-driven rate decline partially offset by insurance in-force and assumed premium growth.

Loss experience. Our loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was 15% as compared to 12% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Both periods were impacted by favorable reserve development. In the first quarter of 2026, we released $39 million of reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities. This compares to the first quarter of 2025, where we recorded a $47 million reserve release driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

New delinquencies in the first quarter of 2026 increased compared to the first quarter of 2025 due to the normal loss development pattern on newer books. Current period primary delinquencies of 13,559 contributed $76 million of loss expense in the first quarter of 2026. This compares to $75 million of loss expense from 12,237 primary delinquencies that were reported in the first quarter of 2025. In determining the loss expense estimate, considerations were given to recent cure and claim experience and the prevailing and prospective economic conditions.

The severity of loss on loans that go to claim may be negatively impacted by extended forbearance and foreclosure timelines, the associated elevated expenses and the higher loan amount of the recent new delinquencies. These negative influences on loss severity could be mitigated, in part, by embedded home price appreciation. The majority of our mortgage insurance policies limit the number of months of unpaid interest and associated expenses that are included in the mortgage insurance claim amount to a maximum of 36 months.

Capital requirements and ratings. As of March 31, 2026, EMICO’s estimated risk-to-capital ratio under North Carolina law and enforced by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”), EMICO’s domestic insurance regulator, was 10.0:1, compared with risk-to-capital ratios of 10.1:1 and 10.5:1 as of December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2025, respectively. EMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio remains below the NCDOI’s maximum risk-to-capital ratio of 25:1. North Carolina’s calculation of risk-to-capital excludes the risk in-force for delinquent loans given the established loss reserves against all delinquencies. EMICO’s ongoing risk-to-capital ratio will depend principally on the magnitude of future losses incurred by EMICO, the effectiveness of ongoing loss mitigation activities, new business volume and profitability, the impact of quota share reinsurance, the amount of policy lapses and the amount of additional capital that is generated or distributed by the business.

Under PMIERs, we are subject to operational and financial requirements that private mortgage insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans that are purchased by the GSEs. As of March 31, 2026, we had estimated available assets of $5,016 million against $3,097 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to available assets of $5,015 million against $3,096 million net required assets as of December 31, 2025. The sufficiency ratio as of March 31, 2026, was 162%, or $1,919 million, above the PMIERs requirements, compared to 162%, or $1,919 million, above the PMIERs requirements as of December 31, 2025. Our PMIERs required assets benefited from a reinsurance credit of $1,944 million and $1,932 million related to third-party reinsurance as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.

On August 21, 2024, the GSEs and the FHFA released updated PMIERs requirements phasing in a revision to available asset standards between March 31, 2025, and September 30, 2026. The updated standards differentiate between bonds based on credit quality and liquidity. The updates also establish limits for assets backed by residential mortgages or commercial real estate to mitigate the impact if such assets lose value during periods of housing stress. We expect to hold capital sufficiency well in excess of these requirements and do not expect the impact of these updates to be material to our sufficiency.

Capital returns. In March 2026, our primary mortgage insurance operating company, EMICO, paid a dividend to EHI that supports our ability to return capital to shareholders. We paid a dividend of $0.185 per common share during the first quarter of 2025. In April 2025, we announced an increase of our dividend to $0.21 per common share which was paid quarterly through March 2026. In May 2026, we announced the increase of our quarterly dividend from $0.21 to $0.24 per common share, payable in June 2026. Future dividend payments are subject to quarterly review and approval by our Board of Directors and Genworth and will be targeted to be paid in the third month of each quarter.

On May 1, 2024, we announced the authorization of a share repurchase program that allowed for the repurchase of up to $250 million of EHI’s common stock. The Company completed the repurchase of shares under this authorization in the second quarter of 2025. On April 30, 2025, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allowed for the repurchase of up to an additional $350 million of EHI’s common stock. The Company completed the repurchase of shares under this authorization during the first quarter of 2026. On February 3, 2026, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to an additional $500 million of EHI’s common stock. Under the programs, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, Enact has entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares as part of the program to maintain Genworth’s current ownership interest in Enact. We expect the timing and amount of any future share repurchases will be opportunistic and will depend on a variety of factors, including EHI’s share price, capital availability, business and market conditions, regulatory requirements, and debt covenant restrictions. The programs do not obligate EHI to acquire any amount of common stock, may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and do not have a specified expiration date.

Returning capital to shareholders, balanced with our growth and risk management priorities, remains a priority as we look to drive shareholder value through time. Future return of capital will be shaped by our capital prioritization framework, which sets the following priorities: supporting our existing policyholders, growing our mortgage insurance business, funding attractive new business opportunities and returning capital to shareholders. Our total return of capital will also be based on our view of the prevailing and prospective macroeconomic conditions, regulatory landscape and business performance.

Net earned premium rate (3)	0.34		%	0.35		%

_______________

(1)Loss ratio is calculated by dividing losses incurred by net earned premiums.

(2)Expense ratio is calculated by dividing acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, plus amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles by net earned premiums.

(3)Net earned premium rate is calculated by dividing direct earned premium less ceded premium, by average primary IIF.

Revenues

Premiums decreased modestly for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, as a result of higher ceded premiums and partially offset by insurance in-force and assumed premium growth. The net earned premium rate was 0.34% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, relatively consistent with 0.35% for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Net investment income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher yields and higher average invested assets.

33

Net investment losses in the first quarter of 2026 and 2025 were driven primarily by realized losses on the sale of fixed maturity securities.

Losses and expenses

Losses incurred during the first quarter of 2026 and 2025 were both impacted by prior year development. In the first quarter of 2026, we recorded a reserve release of $39 million, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities. In the first quarter of 2025, we recorded a reserve release of $47 million primarily related to cure performance of delinquencies and loss mitigation activities. Current period primary delinquencies of 13,559 contributed $76 million of loss expense in the three months ended March 31, 2026. This compares to $75 million of loss expense from 12,237 primary delinquencies in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The following table shows incurred losses for domestic mortgage insurance related to current and prior accident years for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Losses and LAE incurred related to current accident year	$	79,309	$	77,842
Losses and LAE incurred related to prior accident years	(46,214)		(51,789)
Total incurred (1)	$	33,095	$	26,053

_______________

(1)Excludes other reserves.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily due to higher ceding commissions and lower professional services expenses.

The expense ratio decreased slightly as the decline in expenses outpaced the decline in premiums.

Interest expense primarily relates to our 2029 Notes. For additional details see Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Provision for income taxes

The effective tax rate was 21.4% and 21.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, consistent with the United States corporate federal income tax rate.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use a non-U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP”) financial measure entitled “adjusted operating income.” This non-GAAP financial measure is additionally evaluated by both management and our Board of Directors. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. This measure has been established in order to increase transparency for the purposes of evaluating our core operating trends and enabling more meaningful comparisons with our peers. Although “adjusted operating income” is a non-GAAP financial measure, for the reasons discussed above we believe this measure aids in understanding the underlying performance of our operations.

“Adjusted operating income” is defined as U.S. GAAP net income excluding the effects of (i) net investment gains (losses), (ii) reorganization or restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items, and (iii) gains (losses) on the extinguishment of debt.

(i)Net investment gains (losses) — The recognition of realized investment gains or losses can vary significantly across periods as the activity is highly discretionary based on the timing of individual securities sales due to such factors as market opportunities or exposure management. Trends in

34

the profitability of our fundamental operating activities can be more clearly identified without the fluctuations of these realized gains and losses. We do not view them as indicative of our fundamental operating activities. Therefore, these items are excluded from our calculation of adjusted operating income.

(ii)Reorganization or restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from adjusted operating income if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends.

(iii)Gains (losses) on the extinguishment of debt are also excluded from adjusted operating income, as we do not view them as indicative of overall operating trends.

In reporting non-GAAP measures in the future, we may make other adjustments for expenses and gains we do not consider reflective of core operating performance in a particular period. We may disclose other non-GAAP operating measures if we believe that such a presentation would be helpful for investors to evaluate our operating condition by including additional information.

Adjusted operating income is not a measure of total profitability, and therefore should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income. Our definition of adjusted operating income may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies, including our peers.

Adjustments to reconcile net income to adjusted operating income assume a 21% tax rate (unless otherwise indicated).

The following table includes a reconciliation of net income to adjusted operating income for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Net income	$	167,772	$	165,778
Adjustments to net income:
Net investment (gains) losses	5,823		3,243
Costs associated with reorganization	—		629
Taxes on adjustments	(1,223)		(813)
Adjusted operating income	$	172,372	$	168,837

Adjusted operating income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher net investment income and lower expenses, partially offset by higher losses.

Delinquent loans and claims

Our delinquency management process begins with notification by the loan servicer of a delinquency on an insured loan. “Delinquency” is defined in our master policies as the borrower’s failure to pay when due an amount equal to the scheduled monthly mortgage payment under the terms of the mortgage. Generally, our master policies require an insured to notify us of a delinquency if the borrower fails to make two consecutive monthly mortgage payments prior to the due date of the next mortgage payment. Borrowers default for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to a reduction of income, unemployment, divorce, illness/death, inability to manage credit, falling home prices and interest rate levels. Borrowers may cure delinquencies by making all of the delinquent loan payments, agreeing to a loan modification, or by selling the property in full satisfaction of all amounts due under the mortgage. In most cases, delinquencies that are not cured result in a claim under our policy.

The number of delinquencies often does not correlate directly with the number of claims received because delinquencies may cure. The rate at which delinquencies cure is influenced by borrowers’ financial resources and circumstances and regional economic differences. Whether a delinquency leads to a claim correlates highly with the borrower’s equity at the time of delinquency, as it influences the borrower’s willingness to continue to make payments, the borrower’s or the insured’s ability to sell the home for an amount sufficient to satisfy all amounts due under the mortgage loan and the borrower’s financial ability to continue making payments. When we receive notice of a delinquency, we use our proprietary model to determine whether a delinquent loan is a candidate for a modification. When our model identifies such a candidate, our loan workout specialists prioritize cases for loss mitigation based upon the likelihood that the loan will result in a claim. Loss mitigation actions include loan modification, extension of credit to bring a loan current, foreclosure forbearance, pre-foreclosure sale and deed-in-lieu. These loss mitigation efforts often are an effective way to reduce our claim exposure and ultimate payouts.

Loss reserves in policy years 2008 and prior are outsized compared to their representation of RIF. The size of these policy years at origination, particularly 2005 through 2008, combined with the significant decline in home prices led to significant losses in policy years prior to 2009. Although uncertainty remains with respect to the ultimate losses we will experience on these policy years, they have become a smaller percentage of our total mortgage insurance portfolio. The concentration of loss reserves has shifted to

46

newer book years in line with changes in RIF. As of March 31, 2026, our 2019 and newer policy years represented approximately 94% of our primary RIF and 84% of our total direct primary case reserves.

Investment Portfolio

Our investment portfolio is affected by factors described below, each of which in turn may be affected by current macroeconomic conditions as noted above in “—Trends and Conditions.” The investment portfolios of our insurance subsidiaries are directed by the Enact Investment Committee, a management-level committee, with Genworth serving as the primary investment manager. The investment portfolio of EHI is directed by a separate management-level EHI Investment Committee with a third-party investment manager. These parties, with oversight from our Board of Directors and our senior management team, are responsible for the execution of our investment strategy. Our investment portfolio is an important component of our consolidated financial results and represents our primary source of claims paying resources. Our investment portfolio primarily consists of a diverse mix of highly rated fixed maturity securities and is designed to achieve the following objectives:

•Meet policyholder obligations through maintenance of sufficient liquidity;

•Preserve capital;

•Generate investment income;

•Maximize statutory capital; and

•Increase shareholder value, among other objectives.

To achieve our portfolio objectives, our investment strategy focuses primarily on:

•Our business outlook, including current and expected future investment conditions;

•Investments selection based on fundamental, research-driven strategies;

•Diversification across a mix of fixed income, low-volatility investments while actively pursuing strategies to enhance yield;

•Regular evaluation and optimization of our asset class mix;

•Continuous monitoring of investment quality, duration, and liquidity; and

•Regulatory capital requirements.

We manage credit risk by analyzing issuers, transaction structures and any associated collateral. We also manage credit risk through country, industry, sector and issuer diversification and prudent asset allocation practices.

We primarily mitigate interest rate risk by employing a buy and hold investment philosophy that seeks to match fixed income maturities with expected liability cash flows in modestly adverse economic scenarios.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our consolidated cash flows for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	224,039	$	226,724
Investing activities	(125,480)		(89,575)
Financing activities	(132,012)		(101,312)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	(33,453)	$	35,837

Our most significant source of operating cash flows is premiums received from our insurance policies, while our most significant uses of operating cash flows are generally for claims paid on our insured policies and our operating expenses. Net cash provided by operating activities remained relatively flat as lower expenses and premiums were offset by higher net investment income. Cash flows from operations were also impacted by net investment losses, changes in reserves and the timing of tax payments.

Investing activities are primarily related to purchases, sales and maturities of our investment portfolio. Net cash used in investing activities increased primarily as a result of purchases of fixed maturity securities outpacing maturities and sales in the current year due to the deployment of operating cash flows.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, our cash flows from financing activities included dividends paid of $30 million and share repurchases of $93 million. The amount and timing of future dividends is discussed within “—Trends and Conditions” as well as below. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, our cash flows from financing activities included dividends paid of $28 million and share repurchases of $65 million.

Capital Resources and Financing Activities

We issued our 2029 Notes in the second quarter of 2024 with interest payable semi-annually in arrears in May and November of each year. The 2029 Notes mature on May 28, 2029. We may redeem the 2029 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to April 28, 2029, at our option, by paying an additional premium. At any time on or after April 28, 2029, we may redeem the 2029 Notes, in whole or in part, at our option, at 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2029 Notes contain customary events of default which, subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding notes if we breach the terms of the indenture.

On September 30, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for a five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2025 Revolving Credit Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million, which replaces the previous $200 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility matures in September 2030, but under certain conditions EHI may need to repay any outstanding amounts and terminate the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility earlier than the maturity date. We may use borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERs compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility has remained undrawn through March 31, 2026.

49

We continually evaluate opportunities based upon market conditions to further increase our financial flexibility including through raising additional capital, restructuring or refinancing some or all of our outstanding debt or pursuing other options such as reinsurance or credit risk transfer transactions. There can be no guarantee that any such opportunities will be available on favorable terms or at all.

Restrictions on the Payment of Dividends

The ability of our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries to pay dividends and distributions to us is restricted by certain provisions of North Carolina insurance laws. Our insurance subsidiaries may pay dividends only from unassigned surplus; payments made from sources other than unassigned surplus, such as paid-in and contributed surplus, are categorized as distributions. Notice of all dividends must be submitted to the Commissioner of the NCDOI (the “Commissioner”) within 5 business days after declaration of the dividend, and at least 30 days before payment thereof. No dividend may be paid until 30 days after the Commissioner has received notice of the declaration thereof and (i) has not within that period disapproved the payment or (ii) has approved the payment within the 30-day period. Any distribution, regardless of amount, requires that same 30-day notice to the Commissioner, but also requires the Commissioner’s affirmative approval before being paid. Based on our estimated statutory results and in accordance with applicable dividend restrictions, our insurance subsidiaries have the capacity to pay dividends from unassigned surplus of approximately $52 million as of March 31, 2026, with 30-day advance notice to the Commissioner of the intent to pay. In addition to dividends and distributions, alternative mechanisms, such as share repurchases, subject to any requisite regulatory approvals, may be utilized from time to time to upstream surplus.

In addition, we review multiple other considerations in parallel to determine a prospective dividend strategy for our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries. Given the regulatory focus on the reasonableness of an insurer’s surplus in relation to its outstanding liabilities and the adequacy of its surplus relative to its financial needs for any dividend, our insurance subsidiaries consider the minimum amount of policyholder surplus after giving effect to any contemplated future dividends. Regulatory minimum policyholder surplus is not codified in North Carolina law and limitations may vary based on prevailing business conditions including, but not limited to, the prevailing and future macroeconomic conditions. We are subject to statutory accounting requirements that establish a contingency reserve of at least 50% of net earned premiums annually for ten years, after which time it is released into policyholder surplus. While we began 10-year contingency reserve releases during 2024, minimum policyholder surplus could be a limitation on the future dividends of our regulated operating subsidiaries.

Another consideration in the development of the dividend strategies for our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries is our expected level of compliance with PMIERs. Under PMIERs, EMICO is subject to operational and financial requirements that approved insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs.

Our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries are also subject to statutory “risk-to-capital” (“RTC”) requirements that affect the dividend strategies of our regulated operating subsidiaries. EMICO’s domiciliary regulator, the NCDOI, requires the maintenance of a statutory RTC ratio not to exceed 25:1. See “—Risk-to-Capital Ratio” for additional RTC trend analysis.

We consider potential future dividends compared to the prior year statutory net income in the evaluation of dividend strategies for our regulated operating subsidiaries. We also consider the dividend payout ratio, or the ratio of potential future dividends compared to the estimated U.S. GAAP net income, in the evaluation of our dividend strategies. In either case, we do not have prescribed target or maximum thresholds, but we do evaluate the reasonableness of a potential dividend relative to the actual or estimated income generated in the proceeding or preceding calendar year after giving consideration to prevailing business conditions including, but not limited to the prevailing and future macroeconomic conditions. In addition, the dividend strategies of our regulated operating subsidiaries are made in consultation with Genworth.

50

EMICO paid a dividend of approximately $150 million in March 2026 that will primarily be used to support our ability to return capital to shareholders and bolster financial flexibility. We intend to continue to use future EMICO dividends and distributions for these purposes.

The revolving credit agreement requires EHI to maintain the following financial covenants: a minimum consolidated net worth equal to the sum of (i) $3,729,000,000, (ii) 50% of cumulative consolidated net income of the Company for each fiscal quarter of the Company (beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025) for which consolidated net income is positive, and (iii) 50% of any increase in the consolidated net worth of the Company after September 30, 2025 resulting from the issuance of capital stock by or capital contributions to, in each case, the Company or any of its subsidiaries; a maximum debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 0.35 to 1.00; and compliance with all applicable financial requirements under the Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements published by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and the Federal National Mortgage Association. For purposes of determining EHI’s compliance with the foregoing financial covenants, the consolidated net worth metric and debt-to-capitalization ratio (including, in each case, any component thereof) are each calculated as set forth in the credit agreement.

In addition to the restrictions described above, all dividends from EHI are subject to Genworth’s consent and EHI Board of Directors’ approval.

Risk-to-Capital Ratio

We compute our RTC ratio on a separate company statutory basis, as well as for our combined insurance operations. The RTC ratio is net RIF divided by policyholders’ surplus plus statutory contingency reserve. Our net RIF represents RIF, net of reinsurance ceded, and excludes risk on policies that are currently delinquent and for which loss reserves have been established. Statutory capital consists primarily of statutory policyholders’ surplus (which increases as a result of statutory net income and decreases as a result of statutory net loss and dividends paid), plus the statutory contingency reserve. The statutory contingency reserve is reported as a liability on the statutory balance sheet.

Certain states have insurance laws or regulations that require a mortgage insurer to maintain a minimum amount of statutory capital (including the statutory contingency reserve) relative to its level of RIF in order for the mortgage insurer to continue to write new business. While formulations of minimum capital vary in certain states, the most common measure applied allows for a maximum permitted RTC ratio of 25:1.

The following table presents the calculation of our estimated RTC ratio for our combined mortgage insurance subsidiaries as of the dates indicated:

(Dollar amounts in millions)	March 31, 2026		December 31, 2025
Statutory policyholders’ surplus	$	785	$	806
Contingency reserves	4,551		4,513
Combined statutory capital	$	5,336	$	5,319
Adjusted RIF(1)	$	53,382	$	53,893
Combined risk-to-capital ratio	10.0		10.1

(1)Adjusted RIF for purposes of calculating combined statutory RTC differs from RIF presented elsewhere herein. In accordance with NCDOI requirements, adjusted RIF excludes delinquent policies.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2026, we maintained liquidity in the form of cash and cash equivalents of $549 million compared to $582 million as of December 31, 2025, and we also held significant levels of investment-grade fixed maturity securities and short-term investments that can be monetized should our cash and cash equivalents be insufficient to meet our obligations.

On September 30, 2025, we entered into a five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility matures in September 2030, but under certain conditions EHI may need to repay any outstanding amounts and terminate the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility earlier than the maturity date. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility may be used for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility has remained undrawn through March 31, 2026.

The principal sources of liquidity in our business currently include insurance premiums, net investment income and cash flows from investment sales and maturities. We believe that our assets and the operating cash flows generated by our mortgage insurance subsidiary will provide the funds necessary to satisfy our claim payments, operating expenses and taxes in both the short term and long term. However, our subsidiaries are subject to regulatory and other capital restrictions with respect to the payment of dividends. We currently have no material financing commitments, such as lines of credit or guarantees, that are expected to affect our liquidity, other than the 2029 Notes and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility.

Financial Strength Ratings

The following EMICO financial strength ratings have been independently assigned by third-party rating organizations and represent our current ratings, which are subject to change.

Name of Agency	Rating	Outlook	Action	Date of Rating
Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.	A2	Stable	Upgrade	August 6, 2025

S&P Global Ratings	A-	Positive	Affirm	January 15, 2026
A.M. Best	A-	Positive	Affirm	September 18, 2025

Enact Re is currently assigned a rating of A- by A.M. Best and a rating of A- by S&P Global Ratings.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Our loss reserves have a high degree of estimation due to macroeconomic uncertainty and the nature of our business. Therefore, it is possible we could have higher contractual obligations related to these

52

loss reserves if they do not cure or progress to claim as we expect. Other than changes in our aforementioned loss reserves, there have been no material additions or changes to our contractual obligations or other off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

As of the filing date of this report, there were no material changes in our critical accounting estimates from those discussed in our Annual Report.

New Accounting Standards

Refer to Note 2 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and in our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, for a discussion of recently adopted and not yet adopted accounting standards.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We own and manage a large investment portfolio of various holdings, types and maturities. Investment income is one of our material sources of revenue and the investment portfolio represents the primary resource supporting operational and claim payments. The assets within the investment portfolio are exposed to the same factors that affect overall financial market performance. While our investment portfolio is exposed to factors affecting markets worldwide, it is most sensitive to fluctuations in the drivers of United States markets.

We manage market risk via our defined investment policy guidelines implemented by our investment managers with oversight from our Board of Directors and our senior management. Important drivers of our market risk exposure that we monitor and manage include, but are not limited to:

•Changes to the level of interest rates. Increasing interest rates may reduce the value of certain fixed-rate bonds held in the investment portfolio. Higher rates may cause variable-rate assets to generate additional income. Decreasing rates will have the reverse impact. Significant changes in interest rates can also affect persistency and claim rates that may require that the investment portfolio be restructured to better align it with future liabilities and claim payments. Such restructuring may cause investments to be liquidated when market conditions are adverse.

•Changes to the term structure of interest rates. Rising or falling rates typically change by different amounts along the yield curve. These changes may have unforeseen impacts on the value of certain assets.

•Market volatility/changes in the real or perceived credit quality of investments. Deterioration in the quality of investments, identified through changes to our own or third-party (e.g., rating agency) assessments, will reduce the value and potentially the liquidity of investments.

•Concentration risk. If the investment portfolio is highly concentrated in one asset, or in multiple assets whose values are highly correlated, the value of the total portfolio may be greatly affected by the change in value of just one asset or a group of highly correlated assets.

•Prepayment risk. Bonds may have call provisions that permit debtors to repay prior to maturity when it is to their advantage. This typically occurs when rates fall below the interest rate of the debt.

Market risk is measured for all investment assets at the individual security level. Market risks that are not fully captured by the quantitative analysis and material market risk changes that occur from the last reporting period to the current are discussed within “—Trends and conditions” and “—Investment Portfolio” in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.

As of March 31, 2026, the effective duration of our investments available-for-sale was 4.9 years, which means that an instantaneous parallel shift (movement up or down) in the yield curve of 100 basis points would result in a change of 4.9% in fair value of our investments available-for-sale.

54

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2026, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Nature of business, organization structure and basis of presentation

Nature of business, organization structure and basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the accounts of Enact Holdings, Inc. (“EHI,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”). EHI is a subsidiary of Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth”) and has been since EHI’s incorporation in Delaware in 2012. In September 2021, we completed a minority initial public offering (“IPO”) of 18.4% of EHI’s common stock.

We are engaged in the business of writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance. The insurance protects lenders and investors against certain losses resulting from nonpayment of loans secured by mortgages, deeds of trust, or other instruments constituting a lien on residential real estate. We offer private mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“primary mortgage insurance”). Our primary mortgage insurance enables borrowers to buy homes with a down payment of less than 20% of the home’s value. Primary mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment mortgage loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are sold to government-sponsored enterprises. We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination.

We also perform fee-based contract underwriting services for mortgage lenders. The provision of underwriting services by mortgage insurers eliminates the duplicative lender and mortgage insurer underwriting activities and expedites the approval process.

We operate our business through our primary insurance subsidiary, Enact Mortgage Insurance Corporation, (“EMICO”), with operations in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. EMICO is an approved insurer by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises, and we refer to them collectively as the “GSEs.”

We also offer mortgage and credit-related insurance and reinsurance through our other subsidiaries, including investing in new opportunities for Enact. One of these subsidiaries, Enact Re Ltd. ("Enact Re"), our wholly owned Bermuda-based subsidiary, also reinsures EMICO’s new and existing insurance in-force under quota share reinsurance agreements.

We operate our business in a single segment, which is how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

We have not adopted new accounting pronouncements in 2026.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement Disaggregation

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses included in our consolidated statements of income, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. This guidance is effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, related to accounting for internal-use software costs. The new guidance modified the cost capitalization threshold by removing project development stages and adding evaluation considerations to the probable-to-complete threshold, as well as requiring additional disclosure of internal-use software and related amortization regardless of how the internal-use software is classified on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the table above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the unrealized losses are largely due to changes in interest rates and recent market volatility and are not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.

For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell, nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair value

Fair value

Recurring fair value measurements

We hold fixed maturity securities, which are carried at fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including asset-backed securities), an income or combination approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.

Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.

Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include

rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs, and therefore be classified as Level 2. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2026.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities and short-term investments based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.

Level 1 measurements

There were no fixed maturity securities classified as Level 1 as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025.

Fixed maturity securities:

Third-party pricing services

In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, approximately 91% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of March 31, 2026. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

The following table presents a summary of the significant inputs used by our pricing services for certain fair value measurements of fixed maturity securities that are classified as Level 2 as of March 31, 2026:

Internal models

A portion of our Level 2 U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $230.4 million and $82.5 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.

The following tables present additional information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and for which we have utilized significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs to determine fair value as of or for the dates indicated:

	Beginning balance as of January 1, 2026		Total realized and unrealized gains (losses)				Purchases		Sales		Settlements		Transfer into Level 3 (1)		Transfer out of Level 3 (1)		Ending balance as of March 31, 2026		Total gains (losses) attributable to assets still held

______________

(1)The transfers into and out of Level 3 for fixed maturity securities were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in the observability of external information used in determining the fair value, such as external ratings or credit spreads.

Purchases, sales, and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period.

The amount presented for realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in net income for fixed maturity securities primarily represents amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on certain fixed maturity securities recorded within net investment income.

The following table presents a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used for certain asset fair value measurements that are based on internal models and classified as Level 3 as of March 31, 2026:

(Amounts in thousands)	Valuation technique	Fair value (1)		Unobservable input	Range (bps)	Weighted- average (2) (bps)

(1)Certain classes of instruments classified as Level 3 may be excluded as a result of not being material or due to limitations in being able to obtain the underlying inputs used by certain third-party sources, such as broker quotes, used as an input in determining fair value.

(2)Unobservable inputs weighted by the relative fair value of the associated instrument.

We have certain financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value, including cash and cash equivalents and accrued investment income, the carrying value of which approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments and are not included in this disclosure.

Loss reserves

Our reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) consisted of the following as of the dates indicated:

(Amounts in thousands)	March 31, 2026		December 31, 2025
Domestic mortgage insurance	$	584,406	$	566,809
Other reserves	5,987		5,661
Total loss reserves	$	590,393	$	572,470

Activity for the liability for domestic mortgage insurance loss reserves for the three months ended March 31, is summarized as follows:

(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Gross loss reserves, beginning balance	$	566,809	$	520,032
Reinsurance recoverable, beginning balance	(3,326)		(2,909)
Net loss reserves, beginning balance	563,483		517,123
Losses and LAE incurred related to current accident year	79,309		77,842
Losses and LAE incurred related to prior accident years	(46,214)		(51,789)
Total incurred	33,095		26,053
Losses and LAE paid related to current accident year	(105)		(99)
Losses and LAE paid related to prior accident years	(16,915)		(8,395)
Total paid	(17,020)		(8,494)
Net loss reserves, ending balance	579,558		534,682
Reinsurance recoverable, ending balance	4,848		2,798
Gross loss reserves, ending balance	$	584,406	$	537,480

The liability for loss reserves represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could possibly be significant, and result in future increases to reserves by amounts that could be material to our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

Losses incurred related to insured events of the current accident year relate to defaults that occurred in that year and represent the estimated ultimate amount of losses to be paid on such defaults. Losses incurred related to insured events of prior accident years represent the (favorable) or unfavorable development of reserves as a result of the actual rates at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”) and claim amounts being different than those we estimated when originally establishing the reserves. These estimates are based on our historical experience, which we believe is representative of expected future losses at the time of estimation. As a result of the extended period of time that may exist between the reporting of a delinquency and the claim payment, as well as changes in economic conditions and the real estate market, significant uncertainty and variability exist on amounts ultimately paid.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, losses and LAE incurred of $79 million related to insured events of the current accident year was primarily attributable to new delinquencies compared to $78 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we also recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $39 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded favorable reserve adjustments of $47 million primarily on prior accident year reserves, driven by cure performance and loss mitigation activities.

Reinsurance

3 Months Ended

SEC Schedule, 12-17, Insurance Companies, Reinsurance [Abstract]

Reinsurance

Reinsurance

We reinsure a portion of our policy risks to third parties in order to reduce our ultimate losses, diversify our exposures and comply with regulatory requirements. We also assume certain policy risks written by other companies.

Reinsurance does not relieve us from our obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations, we remain liable for the reinsured claims. We monitor both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions, activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of default by such reinsurers.

The following table sets forth the effects of reinsurance on premiums written and earned for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2026		2025
Net premiums written:
Direct	$	263,310	$	263,081
Assumed	9,631		7,305
Ceded	(36,466)		(32,761)
Net premiums written	$	236,475	$	237,625
Net premiums earned:
Direct	$	270,195	$	270,242
Assumed	9,121		7,305
Ceded	(36,466)		(32,761)
Net premiums earned	$	242,850	$	244,786

The difference between written premiums of $236.5 million and earned premiums of $242.9 million represents the decrease in unearned premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The decrease in unearned premiums in both periods was primarily the result of premiums earned over time coupled with low originations of our single premium mortgage insurance product.

Excess-of-loss reinsurance

We engage in excess-of-loss (“XOL”) insurance transactions either through a panel of traditional reinsurance providers or through collateralized reinsurance with unaffiliated special purpose insurers (“Triangle Re Entities”). During the respective coverage periods of these agreements, EMICO retains the first layer of aggregate loss exposure on covered policies while the reinsurer provides the second layer of coverage, up to the defined reinsurance coverage amount. EMICO retains losses in excess of the respective reinsurance coverage amount.

The Triangle Re Entities fully collateralize their coverage by issuing insurance-linked notes (“ILNs”) to eligible capital market investors in unregistered private offerings. Traditional reinsurance providers collateralize a portion of their coverage by holding funds in trust. We believe that the risk transfer requirements for reinsurance accounting were met as these XOL insurance transactions assume significant insurance risk and a reasonable possibility of significant loss.

EMICO has rights to terminate the ILNs or traditional XOL reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.

The following table presents the issue date, policy dates, initial and current first layer retained aggregate loss and initial and current reinsurance coverage amount under each reinsurance transaction. Current amounts are presented as of March 31, 2026:

Quota Share Reinsurance

EMICO engages in quota share reinsurance agreements with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Under the agreements, we cede a percentage of premiums earned, claims and claims expenses on eligible policies. The agreements also include a specific ceding commission and profit commission determined based on ceded claims. EMICO has rights to terminate the reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events. Reinsurance recoverables are recorded in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Borrowings

Borrowings

In May 2024, we issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes are the Company’s unsecured senior obligations. The 2029 Notes pay interest

semi-annually on May 28 and November 28 at a rate of 6.25% per year, beginning on November 28, 2024, and will mature on May 28, 2029.

At any time, or from time to time, prior to April 28, 2029 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the 2029 Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points less interest accrued to the redemption date, and (ii) 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The 2029 Notes contain customary events of default which, subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding notes if we breach the terms of the indenture.

The following table sets forth long-term borrowings as of the dates indicated:

Revolving Credit Agreement

On September 30, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2025 Revolving Credit Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million, to replace our then-outstanding $200 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2022 Revolving Credit Facility”). The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility includes the ability for EHI to increase the commitments on an uncommitted basis, by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $217.5 million. Borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility will accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at EHI’s option, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margins are based on the ratings established by certain debt rating agencies for EHI’s senior unsecured debt. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility matures in September 2030, but under certain conditions EHI may need to repay any outstanding amounts and terminate the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility earlier than the maturity date.

We may use borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The 2025 Revolving Credit Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERs compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility has remained undrawn through March 31, 2026.

On May 1, 2024 and April 30, 2025, we announced repurchase authorizations that allowed for the repurchase of $250 million and $350 million, respectively, excluding commissions, of EHI common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, based on market and business conditions, stock price and other factors. On February 3, 2026, we announced the authorization of a new share repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of up to an additional $500 million of EHI’s common stock. Under the programs, share repurchases may be made at our discretion from time to time in open market transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, Enact has entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares as part of the program to maintain Genworth’s current ownership interest in Enact. The programs do not obligate EHI to acquire any amount of common stock, may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and do not have a specified expiration date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased 2,291,215 shares at an average price of $40.66 per share, excluding commissions, compared to 1,962,023 shares at an average price of $33.38 per share, excluding commissions, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, $467.9 million remained available under the share repurchase program. All treasury stock has been retired as of March 31, 2026.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company purchased 700,434 shares at an average price of $42.56 per share through April 30, 2026.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

We operate our business in a single reportable segment, Mortgage Insurance, which is how our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, reviews our financial performance and allocates resources. We derive revenue primarily through writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance in the United States. We manage our single segment on a consolidated basis, and our reported measure of segment profit or loss is consolidated net income.

The CODM uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets in deciding how to reinvest profits into the core business, or into other parts of the entity, such as new business initiatives or to return capital to shareholders. Net income is also considered in our competitive analysis and financial planning processes.

Our significant segment expenses are those disclosed on our condensed consolidated statements of income and our measure of segment assets are those reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

We have not adopted new accounting pronouncements in 2026.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Income Statement Disaggregation

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses included in our consolidated statements of income, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. This guidance is effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, related to accounting for internal-use software costs. The new guidance modified the cost capitalization threshold by removing project development stages and adding evaluation considerations to the probable-to-complete threshold, as well as requiring additional disclosure of internal-use software and related amortization regardless of how the internal-use software is classified on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

Recurring fair value measurements

We hold fixed maturity securities, which are carried at fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including asset-backed securities), an income or combination approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.

Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.

Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include

rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs, and therefore be classified as Level 2. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of March 31, 2026.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
