Thanks, David. Good morning, everyone. And thank you for joining us today, which is also U.S. Election Day. We have an Investor Day presentation in New York City just 2 weeks from today, and I hope that you all can attend. It will provide additional background and color on Greenlight Re’s progress and go-forward strategy. Greenlight Re reported gross written premiums of $168.3 million for the quarter. We delivered net income of $35.2 million, up $21.7 million versus the third quarter of 2023. This equates to 6.1% growth in fully diluted book value per share during the quarter. Fully book – fully diluted book value per share has grown 11.8% in 2024 or 16.0% on an annualized basis. Third quarter 2024 benefited from strong investment income driven by the Solasglas fund, which reported income of $19.8 million, a 5.2% return on our investment portfolio. Recall that on our earnings call last quarter we announced that our allocation to Solasglas investment portfolio was increased from 60% to 70% of adjusted book value, effective August 1. We reported a combined ratio of 95.9% for the quarter, our eighth consecutive quarter of underwriting profit. Our year-to-date combined ratio is 97.9% despite being another relatively active year for insured natural catastrophes, which are estimated at over $100 billion through the first 9 months of 2024. Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend on September 26 as a category 4 storm and went on to impact Georgia and the Carolinas. Most importantly, our hearts go out to those who lost loved ones; and suffered devastating property losses, some of which are uninsured. Greenlight Re’s expected loss from Helene is estimated at $7.5 million. This assumes an industry loss of approximately $10 billion. During the quarter, our overall cat losses were $14.1 million, including $2…

Thanks, Greg and good morning, everyone. The Solasglas fund returned 5.2% in the third quarter. Our long portfolio contributed 9.9%. The macro portfolio contributed 1.2%, and the short portfolio detracted 5.1%. During the quarter, the S&P 500 index advanced 5.9%. The largest positive contributors were long positions in Green Brick Partners, gold and Solvay. The largest detractors were a short basket to hedge homebuilding exposure, equity index hedges and a separate housing-related single-name short position. Green Brick Partners advanced 46% during the quarter. The company reported quarterly earnings of $2.32 per share, which beat analyst expectations of $1.77 per share. Green Brick continues to execute well on its differentiated strategy that focuses on both land acquisition and the subsequent development of single-family home communities, which enables it to deliver industry-leading gross margins. Solvay advanced 7% during the quarter. Demand in Solvay’s key end markets continues to show signs of stabilization. In the quarterly update, the company announced earnings above expectations, supported by cost cutting and better-than-expected free cash flow. Management also raised EBITDA guidance to the upper end of the previous range and increased free cash flow guidance for fiscal year 2024. Gains in the macro portfolio came primarily from gold, as the price appreciated another 13% over the quarter. The largest detractor was a recently implemented short-basket homebuilder stocks constructed to hedge the broad exposure related to our Green Brick investment. Other detractors included equity index hedges and a single-name short in another housing-related company. We believe the latter is structurally unprofitable business and faces looming debt maturities that could be challenging to refinance at a reasonable interest rate. Nonetheless, it was a strong period for everything housing related as investors celebrated the move in lower yields and the 50 basis point rate cut from the Fed. At an…

Thanks David and good morning everyone. During the third quarter of 2024, we generated net income of $35.2 million or $1.01 per diluted share compared to $0.39 per diluted share during the third quarter last year. The underwriting book generated $6.1 million of profit after underwriting related G&A expenses, or a combined ratio of 95.9%. Current year cat losses added 9.3 percentage points to our third quarter combined ratio, while favorable prior year loss development improved the combined ratio by 3.1 percentage points. Our gross premiums written for the third quarter decreased by $14.7 million or 8% to $168.3 million compared to the third quarter last year. The decrease was primarily related to two contracts that we non-renewed in 2024. Excluding those two contracts, the gross premiums increased by 3.3%. The decrease in gross premiums related to the property book was mainly driven by a homeowner’s contract that we non-renewed during 2024. This homeowner’s contract has suffered from U.S. severe convective storms. However, our current in-force property book is expected to be profitable even with the hurricane losses that Greg mentioned. During the third quarter, our casualty gross premiums written decreased by 15.5%, due to non-renewing a funds at Lloyd’s contracts during 2024 and a shift in our workers’ compensation book from proportional to excessive loss. The remainder of our casualty book has performed in line with our expectations for the third quarter and year-to-date. Our casualty book is generally weighted towards small to medium-sized enterprises with low limits that are less susceptible to extreme jury verdicts and risk of third-party litigation funding. The gross premiums written by our specialty book grew by $21.4 million or 52% compared to third quarter last year. The majority of this growth was related to a proportional new specialty contract which has an outward…
