Kevin J. O'Donnell, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We finished the year with an excellent quarter, reporting an annualized operating return on average common equity of 29.6% driven by strong underwriting results, significantly increased net investment income and stable management fees. For the full year, we delivered a 6.3% operating return despite a net negative impact of $807.6 million from catastrophe losses. At the January renewal we demonstrated leadership and discipline, achieving the step change in rate and terms investors required, while providing the reinsurance capacity customers needed. We enter 2023 with expectations of continuing strong demand for our products, ample capital to meet this demand, and anticipation of one of the most successful years in our history."

? Rising interest rates and increased yields in the fixed maturity trading and short term investment portfolios;

? Higher yields on catastrophe bonds; and

? Higher average invested assets and yields in private credit fund investments.

? Net realized and unrealized gains on fixed maturity investments trading of $77.1 million, which includes unrealized gains of $187.9 million resulting from the modest reduction in interest rates on medium-term U.S. treasuries, as well as a narrowing of credit spreads on the corporate and high yield fixed maturity portfolios, partially offset by realized losses of $110.8 million. This compares to net realized and unrealized losses of $101.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 resulting from increases in interest rates.

Other Items of Note - Fourth Quarter

? Strong underwriting results for DaVinci and Vermeer;

? Strong net investment income stemming from higher interest rates and yields within the investment portfolios of the Company's joint ventures and managed funds; and

? Net realized and unrealized gains on investments recorded during the quarter, as described above.

Net negative impact of the 2022 Weather-Related Large Losses

Net negative impact on underwriting result includes the sum of (1) net claims and claim expenses incurred, (2) assumed and ceded reinstatement premiums earned and (3) earned and lost profit commissions. Net negative impact on net income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders is the sum of (1) net negative impact on underwriting result and (2) redeemable noncontrolling interest, both before consideration of any related income tax benefit (expense).

The Company's estimates of net negative impact are based on a review of our potential exposures, preliminary discussions with certain counterparties and actuarial modeling techniques. Our actual net negative impact, both individually and in the aggregate, may vary from these estimates, perhaps materially. Changes in these estimates will be recorded in the period in which they occur.

Meaningful uncertainty remains regarding the estimates and the nature and extent of the losses from these catastrophe events, driven by the magnitude and recent nature of each event, the geographic areas impacted by the events, relatively limited claims data received to date, the contingent nature of business interruption and other exposures, potential uncertainties relating to reinsurance recoveries and other factors inherent in loss estimation, among other things.

? Decrease in the catastrophe class of business of $159.0 million, or 7.1%, principally driven by lower reinstatement premiums in 2022 compared to 2021, as well as the reduction in the size of Upsilon over the course of the year.

? Decrease in the other property class of business of $65.5 million, or 3.8%, principally due to the non-renewal of certain deals, partially offset by growth and rate improvement across other areas within the other property class of business.

? The reduction in gross premiums written in Upsilon, which are largely ceded to third party investors.

? A reduction in retrocessional purchases as part of the Company's gross-to-net strategy, in conjunction with the growth in managed third-party capital vehicles.

Performance fees are based on the performance of the individual vehicles or products, and may be negative in a particular period if, for example, large losses occur, which can potentially result in no performance fees or the reversal of previously accrued performance fees.

? Relatively stable management fee income in 2022. The management fees in both years were impacted by a deferral of management fees in DaVinci as a result of the large losses experienced in both years.

? Lower performance fee income in 2022 was primarily due to the impact of the 2022 Weather-Related Large Losses on the results of the Company's joint ventures and managed funds, partially offset by higher favorable development on prior year losses in DaVinci.

Investment Results: Net investment income increased $240.5 million; total investment result primarily driven by net realized and unrealized losses in the fixed maturity and equity investments portfolio.

? Net realized and unrealized losses in 2022 of $1.4 billion on fixed maturity investments, primarily due to the increase in inflation in 2022, combined with increasing yields on U.S. treasuries, as well as net realized and unrealized losses on equity investments of $123.8 million, which was the result of a generally lower equity market environment through the year, and $130.3 million of net realized and unrealized losses on catastrophe bonds, primarily due to Hurricane Ian;

? Net investment income increased as a result of higher interest rates and increased yields within the Company's investment portfolio, primarily driven by an increase in yields on U.S treasuries.

Comments on Regulation G

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this Press Release, the Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G. The Company has provided these financial measures in previous investor communications and the Company's management believes that these measures are important to investors and other interested persons, and that investors and such other persons benefit from having a consistent basis for comparison between quarters and for comparison with other companies within or outside the industry. These measures may not, however, be comparable to similarly titled measures used by companies within or outside of the insurance industry. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these non-GAAP measures in assessing the Company's overall financial performance.

Operating Income (Loss) Available (Attributable) to RenaissanceRe Common Shareholders and Operating Return on Average Common Equity - Annualized

The Company uses "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders" as a measure to evaluate the underlying fundamentals of its operations and believes it to be a useful measure of its corporate performance. "Operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders" as used herein differs from "net income (loss) attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders," which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, by the exclusion of net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, excluding other investments - catastrophe bonds, net foreign exchange gains and losses, corporate expenses associated with the acquisition of TMR and the subsequent sale of RenaissanceRe (UK) Limited ("RenaissanceRe UK"), the income tax expense or benefit associated with these adjustments and the portion of these adjustments attributable to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company's management believes that "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders" is useful to investors because it more accurately measures and predicts the Company's results of operations by removing the variability arising from: fluctuations in the fair value of the Company's fixed maturity investment portfolio, equity investments trading, other investments (excluding catastrophe bonds) and investments-related derivatives; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; corporate expenses associated with the acquisition of TMR and the subsequent sale of RenaissanceRe UK; the associated income tax expense or benefit of these adjustments; and the portion of these adjustments attributable to the Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company also uses "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders" to calculate "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted" and "operating return on average common equity - annualized." The following table is a reconciliation of: (1) net income (loss) attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders to "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders"; (2) net income (loss) attributable to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted to "operating income (loss) available (attributable) to RenaissanceRe common shareholders per common share - diluted"; and (3) return on average common equity - annualized to "operating return on average common equity - annualized." Comparative information for all prior periods has been updated to conform to the current methodology and presentation.

Tangible Book Value Per Common Share and Tangible Book Value Per Common Share Plus Accumulated Dividends

The Company has included in this Press Release "tangible book value per common share" and "tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends." "Tangible book value per common share" is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share. "Tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends" is defined as book value per common share excluding goodwill and intangible assets per share, plus accumulated dividends. The Company's management believes "tangible book value per common share" and "tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends" are useful to investors because they provide a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns, excluding the impact of goodwill and intangible assets. The following table is a reconciliation of book value per common share to "tangible book value per common share" and "tangible book value per common share plus accumulated dividends."
