QUARTER 1
FINANCIAL UPDATE
The Insurance segment had a very strong first quarter as we continued to generate solid financial results. These results
were primarily driven by the strong underwriting expertise that we have added to the company over the past two years.
This expertise, coupled with the deep client and broker relationships which our underwriters have created, make Endurance
a more relevant market. Our expanded U.S. and London Market insurance teams along with our established Bermuda
platform continue to attract quality specialty business across our diverse product offerings. Looking ahead, we fully expect
this positive momentum to continue as we further expand our capabilities and presence in these markets.
