(UIM), a managing general agent; Skyway Claims Services, LLC, which provides claims adjusting services to AmCoastal; AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) which is a holding company subsidiary that consolidates its respective insurance company; BlueLine Cayman Holdings (BlueLine), which reinsures portfolios of excess and surplus policies; UPC Re, which provides a portion of the reinsurance protection purchased by our insurance subsidiaries when needed; Skyway Reinsurance Services, LLC, which provides reinsurance brokerage services for our insurance companies; Skyway Legal Services, LLC (SLS), which provides claims litigation services to our insurance companies; and Skyway Technologies, LLC (SCS), a managing general agent that provides technological and distribution services to our insurance companies.

Our primary products are commercial and homeowners' residential property insurance. We currently offer commercial residential insurance in Florida. During 2022, we also wrote commercial residential insurance in South Carolina and Texas, however, effective May 1, 2022, we no longer write in these states. In addition, we write personal residential insurance in New York. During 2022, we wrote personal residential business in six other states; however on February 27, 2023, our former insurance subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC) was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services (DFS), which divested our ownership of UPC. The events leading to receivership and results of this subsidiary, now included within discontinued operations, are discussed in Note 3 below.

On August 25, 2022, we announced that our former subsidiary UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entail non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, Inc. (Demotech), an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating. On December 5, 2022, the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation ("FLOIR") issued Consent Order No. 303643-22- CO that provided for the administrative supervision and approval of the plan of run-off for UPC (the "Consent Order"). The Consent Order provided formal approval of UPC's Plan of Run-Off (the "Plan") to facilitate a solvent wind down of its affairs in an orderly fashion. Additionally, in connection with the Plan, IIC agreed to not pay ordinary dividends without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services until January 1, 2025. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely and on February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services (the "DFS") which divested our ownership of UPC.

Effective June 1, 2022, we merged our majority-owned insurance subsidiary, Journey Insurance Company (JIC) into AmCoastal, with AmCoastal being the surviving entity. JIC was formed in strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Kiln) on August 30, 2018 and operated independently from AmCoastal prior to the merging of the entities. The Kiln subsidiary held a noncontrolling interest in JIC, which was terminated prior to the merger.

Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap). Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Effective June 1, 2022, we began the transition of South Carolina policies to Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (HCPCI) in connection with our renewal rights agreement. Effective October 1, 2022, we transitioned Georgia policies to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement. Effective December 1, 2022, we began the transition of North Carolina policies to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement. As a result, these policies will no longer be covered under this agreement upon their renewal. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021.

Effective May 31, 2022, we merged Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC) into our former subsidiary UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity. FSIC was acquired via merger on February 3, 2015, and operated independently from

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

UPC prior to the merging of the entities. In conjunction with the merger, we dissolved Family Security Holdings (FSH), a holding company subsidiary that consolidated its respective insurance company, FSIC.

Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies was 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap. HCPCI is responsible for processing all claims as a part of this agreement. As of April 1, 2022, we completed the transition of all policies in these four states to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement) to sell UPC's personal lines homeowners business in these states.

We conduct our operations under two reportable segments, commercial residential property and casualty insurance policies (commercial lines) and personal residential property and casualty insurance policies (personal lines). Our chief operating decision maker is our President, who makes decisions to allocate resources and assesses performance at both segment levels, as well as at the corporate level.

(b)Consolidation and Presentation

We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods. We include all of our subsidiaries in our consolidated financial statements, eliminating intercompany balances and transactions during consolidation. As described in Note 2, our former subsidiary, UPC, and activities related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC qualify as discontinued operations. Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

While preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reported amounts that require us to make extensive use of estimates include our reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, investments and goodwill. Except for the captions on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, we generally use the term loss(es) to collectively refer to both loss and loss adjustment expenses.

Our results of operations and our cash flows as of the end of the interim periods reported herein do not necessarily indicate our results for the remainder of the year or for any other future period.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, our subsidiary AmCoastal is a part of a combined reinsurance program with our former subsidiary, UPC.

To properly allocate the reinsurance recoverables under the shared catastrophe treaties, UPC and AmCoastal entered into a reinsurance allocation agreement that became effective on June 1, 2022 (the "Allocation Agreement"). The Allocation Agreement was filed with and approved by the FLOIR on December 5, 2022. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely, driven by Hurricane Ian losses which exhausted UPC's reinsurance coverage. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the DFS which divested our ownership of UPC. As of the date of filing our Annual Report, the DFS had not recognized the Allocation Agreement, leaving uncertainty regarding the timing of both recoveries currently held by UPC that are allocated to AmCoastal and future recoverables. Management also believed that the ability for AmCoastal to obtain adequate reinsurance to meet its needs for the June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024 catastrophe cover could only be accomplished assuming that recoveries due to AmCoastal pursuant to the Allocation Agreement could be resolved in short order.

However, on April 19, 2023, AmCoastal entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the DFS. Under the terms of the Memorandum, AmCoastal and the DFS as receiver of UPC have reached the following agreement:

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

1.The DFS adopts, ratifies and affirms the Allocation Agreement.

2.All future reinsurance recoverable under reinsurance agreements applicable to the Allocation Agreement for Hurricane Ian losses shall be paid, either directly from the reinsurers or directly from the reinsurance intermediary responsible therefor, to AmCoastal. If a true up adjustment demonstrates that any future reinsurance recoveries were over-collected by AmCoastal, AmCoastal will remit any over-payment to UPC.

On May 15, 2023, the Company, together with it's subsidiary, AmCoastal, entered into a Tax Memorandum of Understanding (the "Tax Memorandum") with the DFS as receiver of the Company's former subsidiary, UPC. On February 27, 2023, UPC entered into receivership with the DFS as receiver. As of March 31, 2023, in accordance with the various reinsurance allocation agreements including the Allocation Agreement described above, the Company is due approximately $38,352,000 of net reinsurance recoveries received by UPC on behalf of the Company but not settled prior to receivership. In addition, in April ACIC paid reinsurance premiums on behalf of UPC totaling $12,929,000. The Company and the DFS believe that an opportunity exists to settle these balances via the realization of certain deferred tax assets of the Company's consolidated Federal and Florida tax returns to which ACIC and UPC belong. UPC holds certain deferred tax assets that are believed to be on no value to UPC on a stand-alone basis. However, AmCoastal and the Company have the opportunity, subject to certain conditions such as continuing and adequate profitability, to realize these assets. Under the terms of the Tax Memorandum, the Company, AmCoastal and the DFS as receiver of UPC have reached the following agreement:

1.The parties agree to cooperate with one another to achieve realization of the deferred tax assets;

2.The parties agree to deposit the funds that are or may be due to UPC pursuant to the Tax Allocation Agreement into a segregated account (the "DTA Account") held by AmCoastal that will serve as collateral for any amount payable from or to UPC;

3.The parties agree that the Federal Income Tax Allocation Agreement entered into prior to UPC’s receivership is ratified and accepted by all parties;

4.The parties agree to an annual “true up” of the allocation of the disputed recoveries to the extent that such recoveries were not allocated correctly according to the Reinsurance Allocation Agreement;

5.In the event that AmCoastal, ACIC, or any of their affiliates make a claim or file a proof of claim in the UPC estate, the reviewed, approved, and/or adjudicated claim shall be reduced by the amount of (a) any tax benefit collectively received by AmCoastal, ACIC, or any of their affiliates as well as (b) any money withdrawn from the DTA Account for the benefit of any entity other than UPC; and

6.In the event that the benefit received by the Company is greater than the disputed recoveries, the difference shall be paid to DFS as receiver of UPC.

The Tax Memorandum allows the Company to secure amounts due from UPC to AmCoastal provided the Internal Revenue Service does not object to the Company utilizing UPC's net operating loss carry-forward against its future taxable income. We believe probability of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allowing the Company to utilize UPC's net operating losses is more likely than not based on other entities having successfully accomplished this and prior permission or approval from the IRS not being required.

The execution of these MOUs prior to June 30, 2023 alleviate the uncertainty regarding future recoverables, and recoveries currently held by UPC. In addition, as of March 31, 2023, the Company had not finalized its catastrophe cover for June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024. However, as of June 30, 2023, the Company has finalized this cover, alleviating the uncertainty of this placement. As a result, the Company has concluded substantial doubt no longer exists regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.

2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Income Taxes

In June 2022, we assessed our deferred tax position and believed it was more likely than not that the benefit from certain net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards, net capital operating loss carryforwards and other net deferred tax assets would not be realized. In recognition of this risk, we recorded a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2022. During the second quarter of 2023, we evaluated our position based on the results of our continuing operations and determined that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize the benefit from these NOL carryforwards and other net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we have reversed the valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets, totaling $2,223,000.

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

On May 15, we entered into the Tax Memorandum with DFS, as described in Note 1 above. As a result of this Memorandum, any benefit received from the use of UPC's net operating losses are due to to the DFS as receiver of UPC. The expense related to this remittance is presented within our provision for income taxes on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), offsetting the tax benefit recognized.

(b) Changes to Significant Accounting Policies

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our former subsidiary, UPC, was placed into receivership with the DFS. As described in Note 1, effective February 27, 2023, this receivership divested our ownership of UPC. This disposal, as well as the activities related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC were evaluated for qualification as discontinued operations. The results of operations of business are reported as discontinued operations when the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results. When a business is identified for discontinued operations reporting:

•Results for prior periods are retroactively reclassified as discontinued operations;

•Results of operations are reported in a single line, net of tax, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss); and

•Assets and liabilities are reported as held for disposal in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets

Additional details by major classification of operating results and financial position are included in Note 3.

There have been no other changes to our significant accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

We have evaluated pending accounting pronouncements and do not believe any would have an impact on the operations or financial reporting of our company.

3) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On August 25, 2022, we announced that our former subsidiary UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entailed non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating. On December 5, 2022, the FLOIR issued Consent Order No. 303643-22- CO that provided for the administrative supervision and approval of the plan of run-off for UPC (the "Consent Order"). The Consent Order provided formal approval of UPC's Plan of Run-Off (the "Plan") to facilitate a solvent wind down of its affairs in an orderly fashion. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely, driven by Hurricane Ian losses which exhausted UPC's reinsurance coverage. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the DFS which divested our ownership of UPC.

In the first quarter of 2023, the assets and liabilities of UPC were divested. In addition, activities provided by our entities, SCS, SLS and UIM, related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC have been included. The assets and liabilities for the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 are reclassified as held for disposal retrospectively, and the results of UPC and activities related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

As of February 28, 2023, the Company completed the disposal of its former subsidiary, UPC. This divestiture resulted in a gain of $238,440,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This gain was driven by the negative equity position of UPC.

4) SEGMENT REPORTING

Personal Lines Business

Our personal lines business provides structure, content and liability coverage for standard single-family homeowners, renters and condominium unit owners, through our subsidiary IIC. Personal residential products are offered in New York. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to dwellings, detached structures or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism.

We have developed a unique and proprietary homeowners’ product. This product uses a granular approach to pricing for catastrophe perils. We have focused on using independent agencies as a channel of distribution for our personal lines business. All of our personal lines business is managed internally.

Commercial Lines Business

Our commercial lines business primarily provides commercial multi-peril property insurance for residential condominium associations and apartments in Florida, through our subsidiary AmCoastal. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to buildings, inventory or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism. We also wrote commercial residential coverage through our subsidiary JIC, in South Carolina and Texas. Effective June 1, 2022, JIC was merged into AmCoastal, with AmCoastal being the surviving entity. As a result, the commercial residential policies originally written by JIC were not renewed effective May 31, 2022.

All of our commercial lines business is administered by an outside managing general underwriter, AmRisc, LLC (AmRisc). This includes handling the underwriting, claims processing and premium collection related to our commercial business. In return, AmRisc is reimbursed through monthly management fees. International Catastrophe Insurance Managers (ICAT) handled the underwriting and premium collection for JIC’s commercial business written in South Carolina and Texas and was also reimbursed through monthly management fees. Effective May 31, 2022, the Company terminated its agreement with ICAT.

Please note the following similarities pertaining to the accounting and transactions of our operating segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

•Both operating segments follow the accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022;

•Neither operating segment experienced significant noncash transactions outside of depreciation and amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

(3) As these are calculated ratios, the addition of the ratios will not result in the same value as the consolidated ratio. To calculate the consolidated ratio please see the corresponding footnote below.

(4) Loss ratio, net is calculated as losses and LAE net of losses ceded to reinsurers, relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our loss trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate this component separately from our other operating expenses.

(5) Expense ratio is calculated as the sum of all operating expenses less interest expense relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our expense trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately from our loss expenses.

(6) Combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio, net and expense ratio. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our total expense trends and believes it is a key indicator for investors when evaluating the overall profitability of our business.

Portfolio monitoring

We have a quarterly portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed-income security whose carrying value may be impaired as the result of a credit loss. For each fixed-income security in an unrealized loss position, if we determine that we intend to sell the security or that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of the cost or amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity needs, contractual or regulatory requirements, the security's entire decline in fair value is recorded in earnings.

If our management decides not to sell the fixed-income security and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the fixed-income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, we evaluate whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. This is typically indicated by a change in the rating of the security assigned by a rating agency, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security or industry, among other factors. If the assessment indicates that a credit loss may exist, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses will be recorded in earnings. Credit loss is limited to the difference between a security's amortized cost basis and its fair value. Any additional impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive loss.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we determined that none of our fixed-income securities shown in the table below that are in an unrealized loss position have declines in fair value that are reflected as a result of credit losses. Therefore, no credit loss allowance was recorded at June 30, 2023. The issuers of our debt security investments continue to make interest payments on a timely basis. We do not intend to sell, nor is it likely that we would be required to sell the debt securities before we recover our amortized cost basis. Equity securities are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the valuation of equity investments.

The following table presents an aging of our unrealized investment losses by investment class:

Fair value measurement

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that we can access.

Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:

(a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

(b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

(c) Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect our estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.

We estimate the fair value of our investments using the closing prices on the last business day of the reporting period, obtained from active markets such as the NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American. For securities for which quoted prices in active markets are unavailable, we use a third-party pricing service that utilizes quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, benchmark interest rates, broker quotes and other relevant inputs to estimate the fair value of those securities for which quoted prices are unavailable. Our estimates of fair value reflect the interest rate environment that existed as of the close of business on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Changes in interest rates subsequent to June 30, 2023 may affect the fair value of our investments.

The fair value of our fixed maturities is initially calculated by a third-party pricing service. Valuation service providers typically obtain data about market transactions and other key valuation model inputs from multiple sources and, through the use of proprietary models, produce valuation information in the form of a single fair value for individual fixed-income and other securities for which a fair value has been requested. The inputs used by the valuation service providers include, but are not limited to, market prices from recently completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, liquidity spreads, currency rates and other information, as applicable. Credit and liquidity spreads are typically implied from completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities. Valuation service providers also use proprietary discounted cash flow models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry and similar to those used by other market participants to value the same financial information. The valuation models take into account, among other things, market observable information as of the measurement date, as described above, as well as the specific attributes of the security being valued, including its term, interest rate, credit rating, industry sector and, where applicable, collateral quality and other issue or issuer specific information. Executing valuation models effectively requires seasoned professional judgment and experience.

Any change in the estimated fair value of our fixed-income securities would impact the amount of unrealized gain or loss we have recorded, which could change the amount we have recorded for our investments and other comprehensive loss on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023.

The following table presents the fair value of our financial instruments measured on a recurring basis by level at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

(1) Other investments included in the fair value hierarchy exclude these limited partnership interests that are measured at estimated fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.

Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; this is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no financial instruments measured on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The carrying amounts for the following financial instrument categories approximate their fair values at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, because of their short-term nature: cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverable, reinsurance payable, other assets, and other liabilities. The carrying amount of our senior notes approximate fair value as the interest rates and terms are variable.

We are responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. We have implemented a system of processes and controls designed to provide assurance that our assets and liabilities are appropriately valued. For fair values received from third parties, our processes are designed to provide assurance that the valuation methodologies and inputs are appropriate and consistently applied, the assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded.

At the end of each quarter, we determine whether we need to transfer the fair values of any securities between levels of the fair value hierarchy and, if so, we report the transfer as of the end of the quarter. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we transferred no investments between levels.

June 30, 2023

For our investments in U.S. government securities that do not have prices in active markets, agency securities, state and municipal governments, and corporate bonds, we obtain the fair values from our investment custodians, which use a third-party valuation service. The valuation service calculates prices for our investments in the aforementioned security types on a month-end basis by using several matrix-pricing methodologies that incorporate inputs from various sources. The model the valuation service uses to price U.S. government securities and securities of states and municipalities incorporates inputs from active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. To price corporate bonds and agency securities, the valuation service calculates non-call yield spreads on all issuers, uses option-adjusted yield spreads to account for any early redemption features, and adds final spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve at 3 p.m. (ET) as of quarter end. Since the inputs the valuation service uses in its calculations are not quoted prices in active markets, but are observable inputs, they represent Level 2 inputs.

Other investments

We acquired investments in limited partnerships, recorded in the other investments line of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and these investments are currently being measured at estimated fair value utilizing a net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.

The information presented in the table below is as of June 30, 2023:

The carrying amount of goodwill at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $59,476,000.

No impairment in the value of goodwill was recognized during the three or six month period ended June 30, 2023. As a result of the strategic decision to place our former subsidiary UPC into an orderly runoff, we recognized an impairment of our personal lines reporting unit's goodwill totaling $10,156,000 during the third quarter of 2022. The goodwill attributable to our commercial lines reporting unit was most recently tested for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2022. It was determined that there was no impairment in the value of the asset as of December 31, 2022.

Goodwill allocated to our commercial lines reporting unit was $59,476,000 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. There was no goodwill allocated to our personal lines reporting unit at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

There was no goodwill acquired or disposed of during the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Accumulated impairment related to goodwill was $10,156,000 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

9) REINSURANCE

Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophes. Our program provides reinsurance protection for catastrophes, including hurricanes and tropical storms. These reinsurance agreements are part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our stockholders an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, and to reduce variability of earnings, while providing protection to our policyholders. Although reinsurance agreements contractually obligate our reinsurers to reimburse us for the agreed-upon portion of our gross paid losses, they do not discharge our primary liability.

Our program includes excess of loss and quota share treaties. Our AmCoastal catastrophe reinsurance program, in effect from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2024, provides coverage for catastrophe losses from named or numbered windstorms and earthquakes up to an exhaustion point of approximately $1,300,000,000 in the aggregate. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $10,000,000 each. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $82,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $508 million of occurrence limit remaining for Hurricane Ian all of which is attributable to AmCoastal only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company, with its former subsidiary UPC has approximately $993 million of aggregate limit remaining after Hurricane Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.

Effective January 1, 2023, we renewed our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $101,000,000.

During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in our former subsidiary UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of August 22, 2022 for this contract. This change resulted in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

The table below outlines our quota share agreements in effect for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The impacts of these quota share agreements on our former subsidiary, UPC's financial statements are included in discontinued operations.

(4) This treaty provides coverage on non-catastrophe losses on policies in-force on the effective date of the agreement.

(5) Cessions are split 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap.

(6) This treaty was amended effective December 31, 2020 to include AmCoastal.

Reinsurance recoverable at the balance sheet dates consists of the following:


	June 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022
Reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses	$	443,719	$	732,254
Reinsurance recoverable on paid losses and loss adjustment expenses	215,095		64,292
Reinsurance recoverable (1)	$	658,814	$	796,546

(1) Our reinsurance recoverable balance is net of our allowance for expected credit losses. More information related to this allowance can

be found in Note 13.

10) LIABILITY FOR UNPAID LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSE (LAE)

We determine the reserve for unpaid losses on an individual case basis for all incidents reported. The liability also includes amounts for incurred but not reported (IBNR) claims as of the balance sheet date.

The table below shows the analysis of our reserve for unpaid losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 on a GAAP basis:

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023


	June 30,
	2023		2022
Balance at January 1	$	842,958	$	250,642
Less: reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses	732,254		176,096
Net balance at January 1	$	110,704	$	74,546

Incurred related to:
Current year	45,643		47,288
Prior years	(8,316)		(6,941)
Total incurred	$	37,327	$	40,347
Paid related to:
Current year	27,217		30,666
Prior years	29,857		23,651
Total paid	$	57,074	$	54,317

Net balance at June 30	$	90,957	$	60,576
Plus: reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses	443,719		163,509
Balance at June 30	$	534,676	$	224,085

Composition of reserve for unpaid losses and LAE:
Case reserves	$	182,196	$	116,428
IBNR reserves	352,480		107,657
Balance at June 30	$	534,676	$	224,085

Based upon our internal analysis and our review of the annual statement of actuarial opinion provided by our actuarial consultants at December 31, 2022, we believe that the reserve for unpaid losses reasonably represents the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.

As reflected in the table above, we had favorable development in both 2023 and 2022 related to prior year losses. This favorable development came as a result of re-estimating ultimate losses in 2023 based on historical loss trends. The loss payments made by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2023, were higher than the loss payments made during the six months ended June 30, 2022, due to the settling of claims related to Hurricane Ian, which made landfall during the third quarter of 2022. Case and IBNR reserves and reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses also increased when compared to the prior period as a result of Hurricane Ian.

11) LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-Term Debt

The table below presents all long-term debt outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

Senior Notes Payable

On December 13, 2017, we issued $150,000,000 of 10-year senior notes (the Senior Notes) that will mature on December 15, 2027 and bear interest at a rate equal to 6.25% per annum payable semi-annually on each June 15 and December 15, commencing June 15, 2018. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option, at any time and from time to time in whole or in part, prior to September 15, 2027, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon from the date of redemption to the date that is three months prior to maturity, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. On or after that date, we may redeem the Senior Notes at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. On December 8, 2022, the Kroll Bond Rating Agency, LLC announced a downgrade of our issuer and debt ratings from BBB- to BB+. As a result, pursuant to our agreement, the interest rate of our Senior Notes increased from 6.25% to 7.25%.

Florida State Board of Administration Note Payable

On September 22, 2006, we issued a $20,000,000, 20-year note payable to the Florida State Board of Administration (the SBA Note). For the first three years of the SBA Note we were required to pay interest only. On October 1, 2009, we began to repay the principal in addition to interest. The SBA Note bears an annual interest rate equivalent to the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate (as defined in the SBA Note agreement), which resets quarterly. This note was held by our former insurance subsidiary, UPC. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services, divesting our ownership of UPC.

Truist Term Note Payable

On May 26, 2016, we issued a $5,200,000, 15-year term note payable to Truist (the Truist Note), with the intent to use the funds to purchase, renovate, furnish and equip our principal executive office. The Truist Note bears interest at 1.65% in excess of the one-month LIBOR, which resets monthly. LIBOR was phased out at the end of 2021, however, the Intercontinental Exchange will continue to publish one-month LIBOR settings through 2023. The outstanding Truist Note payable balance, including applicable interest, was repaid in full on August 12, 2022. Therefore, effective August 12, 2022, Truist no longer holds our principal executive office as collateral and may not take possession of or foreclose upon the office.

Financial Covenants

Senior Notes - Our Senior Notes provide that the Company and its subsidiaries shall not incur any indebtedness unless no default exists and the Company’s leverage ratio as of the last day of any annual or quarterly period (the balance sheet date) immediately preceding the date on which such additional indebtedness is incurred would have been no greater than 0.3:1, determined on a pro forma basis as if the additional indebtedness and all other indebtedness incurred since the immediately preceding balance sheet date had been incurred and the proceeds therefrom applied as of such day. The Company and its subsidiaries also may not create, assume, incur or permit to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money that is secured by a lien on the voting stock of any significant subsidiary without securing the Senior Notes equally. The Company may not issue, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the capital stock of the Company’s significant subsidiaries as of the issue date of the Senior Notes (except to the Company or to one or more of the Company’s other subsidiaries, or for the purpose of qualifying directors or as may be required by law or regulation), subject to certain exceptions. At December 31, 2022, while our leverage ratio was greater than the allowed ratio above, we did not incur any additional debt during the period and as a result, we were in compliance with the covenants in the Senior Notes.

SBA Note - Our SBA Note required that UPC maintained either a 2:1 ratio of net written premium to surplus, or net writing ratio, or a 6:1 ratio of gross written premium to surplus, or gross writing ratio, to avoid additional interest penalties. The SBA Note agreement defined surplus for the purpose of calculating the required ratios as the $20,000,000 of capital contributed to UPC under the agreement plus the outstanding balance of the note. Should UPC have failed to exceed either a net writing ratio of 1.5:1 or a gross writing ratio of 4.5:1, UPC's interest rate would have increased by 450 basis points above the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate, which was 3.81% at the end of June 2023. Any other writing ratio deficiencies resulted in an interest rate penalty of 25 basis points above the stated rate of the note. Our SBA Note further provided that the Florida State Board of Administration may, among other things, declare its loan immediately due and payable upon any default existing

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2023

under the SBA Note; however, any payment is subject to approval by the insurance regulatory authority. At June 30, 2023, we no longer held the SBA Note as a result of placing UPC into receivership.

Debt Issuance Costs

The table below presents the rollforward of our debt issuance costs paid, in conjunction with the debt instruments described above, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

12) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

We are involved in claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and LAE during the period that we determine an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and we can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to our estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that we receive regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.

At June 30, 2023, the Company is involved in legal proceedings whereby on August 18, 2021, Jacqueline A. Miraglia filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against United Insurance Holdings Corp. alleging violations arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and sought damages in an unspecified amount. On September 27, 2022, venue was transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division and in November, 2022, the plaintiff amended the complaint to add Skyway Claims Services as a defendant. On July 6, 2023, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release, which resulted in an immaterial payment to the plaintiff and did not involve an admission of any wrongdoing by any party.

Commitments to fund partnership investments

We have fully funded one limited partnership investments and have committed to fund our remaining limited partnership investment. The amount of unfunded commitments was $3,602,000 and $4,238,000 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Subleases

We previously leased and occupied office space in which we no longer operate. Effective October 1, 2022, this office space is now subleased to a third-party. This sublease is effective from October 1, 2022 through July 31, 2025, with no option to extend. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $99,000 of income related to this sublease, exclusive of the lease expense associated with the original lease. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized $297,000 of income related to this sublease, exclusive of the lease expense associated with the original lease.

Additionally, as a result of the sublease, we evaluated our right-of-use asset associated with the original lease for impairment, using the undiscounted cash flows from the sublease. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized impairment of $175,000, which was recognized in the results of our personal lines operating segment.

Employee Retention Credit

A series of legislation was enacted in the United States during 2020 and 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that provided financial relief for businesses impacted by government-mandated shutdowns, work stoppages, or other losses suffered by employers. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) provided an employee retention credit, which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes of up to $5,000 per employee for eligible employers. The tax credit is equal to 50% of qualified wages paid to employees during a quarter, capped at $10,000 of qualified wages per employee. During the second quarter of 2022, we evaluated our eligibility and filed for a $10,161,000 refund in connection with our Employee Retention Tax Credit for the tax year ended December 31, 2021. As of June 30, 2023, we have received $5,718,000 from the Internal Revenue Service related to this refund. A gain contingency is an uncertain situation that will be resolved in the future, possibly resulting in a gain. We have not recognized this gain contingency of $10,161,000 within our financial statements except for the $5,718,000 that has already been received.

While we believe the likelihood of the refund approval being reversed is low, a loss contingency to the extent of the refunds received and recognized of $5,718,000 is present. We will continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the outcome of these contingencies and will make any appropriate adjustments each quarter.

13) ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES

We are exposed to credit losses primarily through four different pools of assets based on similar risk characteristics: premiums receivable for direct written business; reinsurance recoverables from ceded losses to our reinsurers; our investment holdings; and our notes receivable. We estimate the expected credit losses based on historical trends, credit ratings assigned to reinsurers by rating agencies, average default rates, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that affect the collectability of the reported amounts over its expected life. Changes in the relevant information may significantly affect the estimates of expected credit losses.

The allowance for credit losses is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the assets to present their net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected. Each period, the allowance for credit losses is adjusted through earnings to reflect expected credit losses over the remaining lives of the assets.

The following tables summarize our allowance for expected credit losses by pooled asset for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively:

14) STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATION

The insurance industry is heavily regulated. State laws and regulations, as well as national regulatory agency requirements, govern the operations of all insurers such as our insurance subsidiaries. The various laws and regulations require that insurers maintain minimum amounts of statutory surplus and risk-based capital, restrict insurers' ability to pay dividends, specify allowable investment types and investment mixes, and subject insurers to assessments. Effective June 1, 2022, our insurance subsidiaries JIC and AmCoastal were merged, with AmCoastal being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, our former insurance subsidiaries UPC and FSIC were merged, with UPC being the surviving entity. Both UPC and AmCoastal are domiciled in Florida, while IIC is domiciled in New York. At June 30, 2023, and during the six months then ended, AmCoastal and IIC met all regulatory requirements of the states in which they operate. As of December 31, 2022, UPC was determined to be insolvent and effective February 27, 2023 was placed into receivership by the DFS.

During 2023, we received an assessment notice from the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (FIGA). This assessment will be 0.7% on direct written premium of all covered lines of business in Florida to cover the cost of an insurance company facing insolvency. This assessment is in addition to the 1.3% assessment, described below, and is recoupable from policyholders. During 2022, we received an assessment notice from FIGA. This assessment will be 1.3% on direct written premium of all covered lines of business in Florida to cover the cost of an insurance company facing insolvency.

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines for insurance companies that are designed to assess capital adequacy and to raise the level of protection that statutory surplus provides for policyholders. Most states, including Florida and New York, have enacted statutory requirements adopting the NAIC RBC guidelines, and insurers having less statutory surplus than required will be subject to varying degrees of regulatory action, depending on the level of capital inadequacy. State insurance regulatory authorities could require an insurer to cease operations in the event the insurer fails to maintain the required statutory capital.

The state laws of Florida and New York permit an insurer to pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of statutory surplus derived from net operating profit and net realized capital gains. The state laws further provide calculations to determine the amount of dividends or distributions that can be made without the prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states and the amount of dividends or distributions that would require prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states. Statutory RBC requirements may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause statutory surplus to fall below minimum RBC requirements. Additionally, in connection with our former subsidiary UPC's plan for run off, IIC has agreed not to pay ordinary dividends without prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services until January 1, 2025.

Our insurance subsidiaries must each file with the various insurance regulatory authorities an “Annual Statement” which reports, among other items, statutory net income (loss) and surplus as regards policyholders, which is called stockholders' equity under GAAP. The table below details the statutory net income (loss) for each of our regulated entities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

See Note 17 in these Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding stock-based compensation activity.

17) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We account for stock-based compensation under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718 - Compensation - Stock Compensation. We recognize stock-based compensation cost over the award’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis for time-based restricted stock grants and performance-based restricted stock grants. We record forfeitures as they occur for all stock-based compensation.

The following table presents our total stock-based compensation expense:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Employee stock-based compensation expense
Pre-tax	$	79	$	141	$	388	$	531
Post-tax (1)	62		111		307		419
Director stock-based compensation expense
Pre-tax	29		41		55		103
Post-tax (1)	23		32		43		81

(1) The after tax amounts are determined using the 21% corporate federal tax rate.

We had approximately $2,676,000 of unrecognized stock compensation expense at June 30, 2023 related to non-vested stock-based compensation granted, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.3 years. We had approximately $218,000 of unrecognized director stock-based compensation expense at June 30, 2023 related to non-vested director stock-based compensation granted, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.9 years.

Restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance stock units

Stock-based compensation cost for restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units is measured based on the closing fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, which vest in equal installments over the requisite service period of typically three years. Restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors vest over a one-year period. Each restricted stock unit and performance stock unit represents our obligation to deliver to the holder one share of common stock upon vesting.

Performance stock units vest based on the Company's return on average equity compared to a defined group of peer companies. On the grant date, we issue the target number of performance stock units. They are subject to forfeitures if performance goals are not met. The actual number of performance stock units earned can vary from zero to 150 percent of the target for the 2023, 2022, and 2021 awards.

We granted 45,000 and 793,041 shares of restricted common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.25 and $1.74 per share, respectively. We granted 45,000 and 907,907 shares of restricted common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.25 and $1.97 per share, respectively. Additionally, during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted 262,933 shares of restricted common stock, with a fair value of $4.33, which are contingent upon stockholder approval of an increase in the number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan. Stockholders will vote on this matter at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.

Outstanding as of June 30, 2023	449,359	$	2.67

(1) Contingent shares have been excluded from the calculations in the table above.

Stock options

Stock option fair value was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula. Stock options vest in equal installments over the requisite service period of typically three years. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to value the stock options granted:


	2023		2022
Expected annual dividend yield	—	%	—	%
Expected volatility	80.84	%	49.66	%
Risk-free interest rate	3.44	%	2.92	%
Expected term	6 years		6 years

The expected annual dividend yield for our options granted during 2023 and 2022 is based on no dividends being paid in future quarters. The expected volatility is a historical volatility calculated based on the daily closing prices over a period equal to the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the grant date. Expected term takes into account the three-year graded vesting term and the 10-year contractual term of the option.

We did not grant any stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. We granted 635,643 stock options during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $0.86 per share. Additionally, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company granted 123,399 stock options, with a fair value of $3.08, which are contingent upon stockholder approval of an increase in the number of shares of our common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan. Stockholders will vote on this matter at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders.

18) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We evaluate all subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in our financial statements.

At June 30, 2023, the Company was involved in legal proceedings whereby on August 18, 2021, Jacqueline A. Miraglia filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against United Insurance Holdings Corp. alleging violations arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and sought damages in an unspecified amount. On September 27, 2022, venue was transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division and in November, 2022, the plaintiff amended the complaint to add Skyway Claims Services as a defendant. On July 6, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release, which resulted in an immaterial payment to the plaintiff and does not involve an admission of any wrongdoing by any party.

On July 10, 2023, we filed with the Secretary of the State of the State of Delaware a Second Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation to change its corporate name from United Insurance Holdings Corp. to American Coastal Insurance Corporation, effective July 10, 2023. In connection with the Company's name change, the Board of Directors amended the Company's by-laws to reflect the corporate name American Coastal Insurance Corporation, also effective on July 10, 2023. No other changes were made to the Company's by-laws.

On July 27, 2023, we announced that the Company will begin trading on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol "ACIC", prior to market open on August 15, 2023. The new ticker replaces the current ticker symbol "UIHC", which has been used since the Company's formation and initial public offering on the over-the-counter (OTC) market in 2007, and subsequent listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market in 2012.

On August 10, 2023, the Company issued a press release related to its earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the Earnings Release). The Earnings Release was filed as exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K filed on August 10, 2023. Subsequent to the Earnings Release, the Company has reported changes to its provision for income taxes and Income from discontinued operations, net of tax on its Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. In addition, the Company has decreased its reported other liabilities and increased its reported other assets on its Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On August 21, 2023, the Company filed an amended 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. This amended filing corrects our allocation of discontinued operations to include activities related directly to the support of our former subsidiary UPC. In addition, this amendment corrects our provision for income taxes to appropriately reflect the impact of the disposition of UPC.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Overview

American Coastal Insurance Corporation (referred to in this document as we, our, us, the Company or ACIC) is a holding company primarily engaged in commercial and personal property and casualty insurance business with investments in the United States. On July 10, 2023, we changed our corporate name from United Insurance Holdings Corp. to American Coastal Insurance Corporation. We conduct our business principally through our two wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries: American Coastal Insurance Company (AmCoastal); and Interboro Insurance Company (IIC). Collectively, we refer to the holding company and all our subsidiaries, including non-insurance subsidiaries, as “American Coastal Insurance Corporation,” which is the preferred brand identification for our Company.

Our Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from writing insurance in Florida and New York. Our target market in such areas consists of states where the perceived threat of natural catastrophe has caused large national insurance carriers to reduce their concentration of policies. We believe an opportunity exists for ACIC to write profitable business in such areas. During 2022, we also wrote commercial residential insurance in South Carolina and Texas, however, effective May 1, 2022, we no longer write in these states. In addition, during 2022 we wrote personal residential business in six other states, however on February 27, 2023, our former insurance subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC) was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services, which divested our ownership of UPC. The events leading to receivership and results of this subsidiary, now included within discontinued operations, can be seen in Note 3 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above.

Our Company, together with its former subsidiary, UPC and wholly-owned subsidiary United Insurance Management, L.C. (UIM), entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Southeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of December 30, 2021 with Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (HCPCI), pursuant to which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. The transfer of policies is subject to regulatory approval. Effective June 1, 2022, we began transitioning South Carolina policies to HCPCI. The sale was consummated on December 30, 2021.

Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap) in connection with the Southeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021. Also effective June 1, our third-party quota share reinsurance agreements were renewed to exclude these states. We will no longer retain any risk associated with these states.

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Our Company, together with its former subsidiary UPC and wholly-owned subsidiary UIM, entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of January 18, 2021 with HCPCI and HCI Group, Inc. (HCI), pursuant to which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island. The transfer of all states was completed as of June 30, 2022.

Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap in connection with the Northeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies is 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap.

We have historically grown our business through strong organic growth, complemented by strategic acquisitions and partnerships, including our acquisitions of AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) and its subsidiaries, including AmCoastal, in April 2017, IIC in April 2016, and Family Security Holdings, LLC (FSH), including its subsidiary Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC), in February 2015, and our strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Tokio Marine), which formed Journey Insurance Company (JIC) in August 2018. Effective June 1, 2022, we merged JIC into AmCoastal, with AmCoastal being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, we merged FSIC into UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity.

As a result of the receivership of our former subsidiary UPC by the DFS effective February 27, 2023, our policies in-force decreased by 49.0% from 46,401 policies in-force at June 30, 2022 to 23,664 policies in-force at June 30, 2023.

We are seeking a buyer for IIC to complete our exit from the personal lines business and expect the sale price to be the book value of the entity. The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing the consolidated financial position and results of operations of American Coastal Insurance Corporation. In evaluating our results of operations, we use premiums written and earned, policies in-force and new and renewal policies by geographic concentration. We also consider the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year development on our loss ratios, expense ratios and combined ratios. In monitoring our investments, we use credit quality, investment income, cash flows, realized gains and losses, unrealized gains and losses, asset diversification and portfolio duration. To evaluate our financial condition, we consider our liquidity, financial strength, ratings, book value per share and return on equity.

(1) Loss ratio, net is calculated as losses and LAE net of losses ceded to reinsurers, relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our loss trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate this component separately from our other operating expenses.

(2) Expense ratio is calculated as the sum of all operating expenses less interest expense relative to net premiums earned. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our expense trends and believes it is useful for investors to evaluate this component separately from our loss expenses.

(3) Combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio, net and the expense ratio, net. Management uses this operating metric to analyze our total expense trends and believes it is a key indicator for investors when evaluating the overall profitability of our business.

(4) Underlying combined ratio, a measure that is not based on GAAP, is reconciled above to the combined ratio, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Additional information regarding non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Form 10-Q is in "Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures" below.

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

We believe that investors' understanding of ACIC's performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Combined ratio excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying combined ratio) is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year development from the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors and it is used by management to highlight the trends in our business that may be obscured by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development. Current year catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their frequency of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year development is caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered as a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

Net loss and LAE excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying loss and LAE) is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development from net loss and LAE. We use underlying loss and LAE figures to analyze our loss trends that may be impacted by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development on our reserves. As discussed previously, these two items can have a significant impact on our loss trends in a given period. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE. The underlying loss and LAE measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

Net income (loss) excluding the effects of amortization of intangible assets, income (loss) from discontinued operations, realized gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities, net of tax (core income (loss)) is a non-GAAP measure, which is computed by adding amortization, net of tax, to net income (loss) and subtracting income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, realized gains (losses) on our investment portfolio, net of tax, and unrealized gains (losses) on our equity securities, net of tax, from net income (loss). Amortization expense is related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired, including goodwill, through mergers and therefore the expense does not arise through normal operations. Investment portfolio gains (losses) and unrealized equity security gains (losses) vary independent of our operations. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). The core income (loss) measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

When we prepare our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with GAAP, we must make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts we report. Certain of these estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex. As a result of that subjectivity and complexity, and because we continuously evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on a variety of factors, actual results could materially differ from our estimates and assumptions if changes in one or more factors require us to make accounting adjustments. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we reassessed our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We have made no material changes or additions with regard to those policies and estimates.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Please refer to Note 2 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards that may affect us.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION - JUNE 30, 2023 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2022

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, and in conjunction with the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Investments

The primary goals of our investment strategy are to preserve capital, maximize after-tax investment income, maintain liquidity and minimize risk. To accomplish our goals, we purchase debt securities in sectors that represent the most attractive relative value, and we maintain a moderate equity exposure. Limiting equity exposure manages risks and helps to preserve capital for two reasons: first, bond market returns are less volatile than stock market returns, and second, should the bond issuer enter bankruptcy liquidation, bondholders generally have a higher priority than equity holders in a bankruptcy proceeding. Our investment strategy is the same for both our personal lines and commercial lines operating segments.

We must comply with applicable state insurance regulations that prescribe the type, quality and concentrations of investments our insurance subsidiaries can make; therefore, our current investment policy limits investment in non-investment-grade fixed maturities and limits total investment amounts in preferred stock, common stock and mortgage notes receivable. We do not invest in derivative securities.

Two outside asset management companies, which have authority and discretion to buy and sell securities for us, manage our investments subject to (i) the guidelines established by our Board of Directors and (ii) the direction of management. The Investment Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and approves our investment policy on a regular basis.

Our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investment portfolio totaled $241,714,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $340,905,000 at December 31, 2022.

The following table summarizes our investments, by type:

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

We classify all of our fixed-maturity investments as available-for-sale. Our investments at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 consisted mainly of U.S. government and agency securities, states, municipalities and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and securities of investment-grade corporate issuers. Our equity holdings consisted mainly of securities issued by companies in the financial, utilities and industrial sectors or mutual funds. At June 30, 2023, approximately 82.7% of our fixed maturities were U.S. Treasuries or corporate bonds rated “A” or better, and 17.3% were corporate bonds rated “BBB” or "BB".

Reinsurance

We follow the industry practice of reinsuring a portion of our risks. Reinsurance involves transferring, or "ceding", all or a portion of the risk exposure on policies we write to another insurer, known as a reinsurer. To the extent that our reinsurers are unable to meet the obligations they assume under our reinsurance agreements, we remain primarily liable for the entire insured loss under the policies we write.

Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophe losses. According to the Insurance Service Office (ISO), a catastrophe loss is defined as a single unpredictable incident or series of closely related incidents that result in $25,000,000 or more in U.S. industry-wide direct insured losses to property and that affect a significant number of policyholders and insurers (ISO catastrophes). In addition to ISO catastrophes, we also include as catastrophes those events (non-ISO catastrophes), which may include losses, that we believe are, or will be, material to our operations which we define as incidents that result in $1,000,000 or more in losses for multiple policyholders.

During the second quarter of 2023, we placed our reinsurance program for the 2023 hurricane season. We purchased catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance protection up to an exhaustion point of approximately $1,300,000,000 in the aggregate. The treaties reinsure for personal and commercial lines property excess catastrophe losses caused by multiple perils including hurricanes and tropical storms. The agreements became effective as of June 1, 2023, for a one-year term, and incorporate the mandatory coverage required by and placed with the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF) and coverage required under the Florida Optional Reinsurance Assistance Program (FORA Program). The FHCF Program covers Florida risks only and we participate at 90%. The FORA Program covers Florida risks only and we participate at 100%. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $10,000,000. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $82,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $508 million of occurrence limit remaining for Hurricane Ian, all of which is attributable to AmCoastal only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company, with its former subsidiary UPC has approximately $993 million of aggregate limit remaining after Hurricane Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.

Effective January 1, 2023, we renewed our all other perils (AOP) catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement

provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $101,000,000.

During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of September 30, 2022 for this contract. This change resulted in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustments

We generally use the term “loss(es)” to collectively refer to both loss and LAE. We establish reserves for both reported and unreported unpaid losses that have occurred at or before the balance sheet date for amounts we estimate we will be required to pay in the future, including provisions for claims that have been reported but are unpaid at the balance sheet date and for obligations on claims that have been incurred but not reported at the balance sheet date. Our policy is to establish these loss reserves after considering all information known to us at each reporting period. At any given point in time, our loss reserve represents our best estimate of the ultimate settlement and administration costs of our insured claims incurred and unpaid.

Unpaid losses and LAE totaled $534,676,000 and $842,958,000 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of this total, $513,118,000 and $816,489,000, respectively, is related to our commercial lines operating segment. The

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

remaining $21,558,000 and $26,469,000, respectively, is related to our personal lines operating segment. On a consolidated basis, this balance has decreased from year end as we continue to settle claims related to Hurricane Ian which made landfall in the third quarter of 2022.

Since the process of estimating loss reserves requires significant judgment due to a number of variables, such as fluctuations in inflation, judicial decisions, legislative changes and changes in claims handling procedures, our ultimate liability will likely differ from these estimates. We revise our reserve for unpaid losses as additional information becomes available, and reflect adjustments, if any, in our earnings in the periods in which we determine the adjustments as necessary.

See Note 10 in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our losses and loss adjustments.

Loss and LAE decreased $3,020,000, or 7.5%, to $37,327,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $40,347,000 for the same period in 2022. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums decreased 11.1 points to 21.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 33.0% for the same period in 2022. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 12.1%, a decrease of 5.3 points from 17.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Policy acquisition costs increased $8,639,000, or 19.7%, to $52,517,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $43,878,000 for the same period in 2022. The primary driver of the increase was an increase in external management fees incurred of $12,415,000 related to our commercial lines gross written premium during 2023. This was partially offset by an increase in ceding commission income of $3,861,000 driven by our commercial lines quota share coverage entered into in the second quarter of 2023.

Operating expenses decreased $2,085,000, or 27.7%, to $5,442,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $7,527,000 for the same period in 2022, primarily due to decreased investments in technology of $1,271,000. We also experienced decreased operating costs such as utilities, printing and postage of $484,000 year-over-year.

General and administrative expenses decreased $896,000, or 5.5%, to $15,376,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $16,272,000 for the same period in 2022 driven by a $477,000 decrease in tax related expenses year-over-year. In addition, depreciation and amortization expense decreased $501,000 year-over-year.

The change in earnings was primarily driven by increased gross written premiums, the details of which are described below. This increase was partially offset by increased policy acquisition costs and loss and LAE incurred during 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The details of these changes are described below.

Revenue

Our gross written premiums attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased $104,432,000, or 33.8%, to $413,463,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $309,031,000 for the same period in 2022. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in written premiums in the state of Florida, as we focus on increasing commercial written premiums and transitioning to a specialty commercial lines underwriter.

Expenses

Expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $19,929,000, or 30.2%, to $85,820,000 from $65,891,000 for the same period in 2022.

Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment decreased by $639,000, or 28.6%, to $1,597,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $2,236,000 for the same period in 2022, driven by a $557,000 decrease in allocations of expenses for investments in technology.

Personal Lines Operating Segment Results

Pretax earnings attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $11,839,000, or 78.5%, to a pre-tax loss of $3,243,000 from a pre-tax loss of $15,082,000 for the same period in 2022. The change in pretax earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in expenses, partially offset by a decrease in gross written premiums written and earned year-over-year as described below. The details of the changes in these expenses are described below.

Revenue

Our gross written premiums attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased $23,470,000 or 57.2%, to $17,545,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $41,015,000 for the same period in 2022. This decrease was driven primarily by a decrease in assumed premiums, driven by the termination of our quota share agreement between our former subsidiary, UPC and IIC effective December 31, 2022. The change in personal lines direct written and assumed premiums and new and renewal policies of the personal lines operating segment year-over-year can be seen below.

Expenses

Expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $16,770,000, or 40.8%, to $24,302,000 from $41,072,000 for the same period in 2022. The decrease in expenses is attributable to a decrease in loss and LAE incurred and policy acquisition costs. General and administrative and operating and underwriting expenses also decreased year-over-year. The details of these changes are described below.

This was partially offset by increased agent commissions and policy administration fees of $884,000 and $284,000, respectively, which fluctuate in conjunction with the year-over-year increase in personal lines direct gross written premium.

Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $1,496,000, or 29.3%, to $3,617,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $5,113,000 for the same period in 2022, due to decreased investments in technology of $699,000 and decreased underwriting expenses of $310,000 year-over-year. We also experienced decreased operating costs such as utilities, printing and postage of $188,000 year-over-year.

General and administrative expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased $969,000, or 9.1%, to $9,679,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $10,648,000 for the same period in 2022, driven costs for professional services provided by external vendors decreasing $877,000 year-over-year.

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generate cash through premium collections, reinsurance recoveries, investment income, the sale or maturity of invested assets, the incurrence of debt and the issuance of additional shares of our stock. We use our cash to pay reinsurance premiums, claims and related costs, policy acquisition costs, salaries and employee benefits, other expenses and stockholder dividends, acquire subsidiaries and pay associated costs, as well as to repay debts, repurchase stock and purchase investments.

As a holding company, we do not conduct any business operations of our own and, as a result, we rely on cash dividends or intercompany loans from our management subsidiaries to pay our general and administrative expenses. Insurance regulatory authorities heavily regulate our insurance subsidiaries, including restricting any dividends paid by our insurance subsidiaries and requiring approval of any management fees our insurance subsidiaries pay to our management subsidiaries for services rendered; however, nothing restricts our non-insurance company subsidiaries from paying us dividends other than state corporate laws regarding solvency. Our management subsidiaries pay us dividends primarily using cash from the collection of management fees from our insurance subsidiaries, pursuant to the management agreements in effect between those entities. In accordance with state laws, our insurance subsidiaries may pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of their statutory surplus derived from their net operating profit and their net realized capital gains. The Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines published by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause their respective surplus as it regards policyholders to fall below minimum RBC guidelines. See Note 14 in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company made no capital contributions to its subsidiaries. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company made capital contributions of $31,000,000 and $39,000,000, respectively to our former insurance subsidiary, UPC and capital contribution of $3,200,000 and $11,200,000, respectively to our former insurance subsidiary, FSIC. We may make future contributions of capital to our insurance subsidiaries as circumstances require.

As described in Note 1 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above, substantial doubt existed about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the twelve-month period subsequent to the date that our Form 10-K was previously issued. However, as of June 30, 2023, the Company has concluded that the events described in Note 1 have alleviated this substantial doubt. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions)

Operating Activities

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

The principal cash inflows from our operating activities come from premium collections, reinsurance recoveries and investment income. The principal cash outflows from our operating activities are the result of claims and related costs, reinsurance premiums, policy acquisition costs and salaries and employee benefits. A primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of large magnitude catastrophe events.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we experienced cash outflows of $232,823,000 compared to cash inflows of $8,286,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. This change in outflows was driven by the continued payment of claims, partially offset by recoveries received during the year, resulting in a decrease in our unpaid loss & loss adjustment expenses of $68,330,000 net of reinsurance recoverables. In addition, the Company experienced outflows from reinsurance contract payments which resulted in a net increase in our unearned paid premiums of $98,532,000. The remainder of these outflows can be attributed to normal business processes.

Investing Activities

The principal cash inflows from our investing activities come from repayments of principal, proceeds from maturities and sales of investments. We closely monitor and manage these risks through our comprehensive investment risk management process. The principal cash outflows relate to sales of investments. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are the risk of default by debtors and market disruption. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net sales of investments totaled $258,736,000 compared to net sales of investments of $83,661,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. This was offset by the disposition of $232,582,000 of cash held by UPC at the time of receivership.

Financing Activities

The principal cash outflows from our financing activities come from repayments of debt and payments of dividends. The primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is market disruption in the cost and availability of credit. We believe our current capital resources, together with cash provided from our operations, are sufficient to meet currently anticipated working capital requirements. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, no cash was used in financing activities compared to $21,685,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in outflow in 2023 can be attributed to no dividend payment being made in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, no repayments of borrowings were made in 2023 as we no longer hold the debt associated with our former subsidiary, UPC. Finally, in 2022 we returned capital attributable to the noncontrolling interest of JIC. This was a one-time return of capital.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At June 30, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or material changes to our contractual obligations during the quarter.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks, including interest rate risk related to changes in interest rates in our fixed-maturity securities, credit risk related to changes in the financial condition of the issuers of our fixed-maturities and equity price risk related to changes in equity security prices. These risks are disclosed in Part II, Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We had no material changes in our market risk during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. We designed our disclosure controls with the objective of ensuring we accumulate and communicate this information to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on our evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Subsequent to that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

Existence of Material Weakness as of March 31, 2023

The Company identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to the reporting of the discontinued operations. Specifically, the Company’s controls over the review of significant unusual transactions, including the effects of the transactions on the preparation of the Company's tax provision were not designed effectively. The Company did not have sufficient, experienced accounting resources to effectively review the accounting for and reporting of significant, unusual transactions. As a result of the material weakness, management’s review control did not detect an error in the accounting related to the recording of the discontinued operations and as a result, net income was understated by $6.4 million. The Company restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to reflect the correction of this error in this Amended Report.

Remediation Plan

Since identifying the material weakness related to management’s review controls related to significant, unusual and complex transactions in the preparation of the Company's financial statements, management has begun remediation of the process and controls in place to measure and record transactions and their related effects to income tax accounting to enhance the effectiveness of the design and operation of those controls. The Company will focus on the accounting and disclosure for unusual and complex transactions such as discontinued operations and will continue to augment existing staff with additional skilled accounting resources and strengthen the review process to improve the design and operation of financial reporting and corresponding internal controls.

These remediation measures require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over a sustained period of financial reporting to reaching a determination that the material weakness has been remediated. As we continue to validate and test our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary or appropriate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal control performed during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above with respect to the identification of the material weakness.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in routine claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses during the period that we determine an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and we can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to our estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that we receive regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.

AMERICAN COASTAL INSURANCE CORPORATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I. Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as set forth below.

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. While we are working to remediate the identified material weakness, we cannot assure you that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not occur in the future. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, our stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. As disclosed in this Amended Report, in the course of preparing our interim financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which existed as of March 31, 2023. The material weakness was caused by inadequate controls over our tax processes, described in more detail under the heading Part I — Item 4. Controls and Procedures in this Amended Report. We have commenced efforts to remediate the material weakness as described in more detail under the heading Part I — Item 4. Controls and Procedures in this Amended Report. The material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until the controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls operate effectively. If we do not successfully remediate the material weakness, or if other material weaknesses or other deficiencies arise in the future, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results, which could cause our financial results to be materially misstated and require restatement. In such case, we may be unable to maintain compliance with securities law requirements regarding timely filing of periodic reports in addition to applicable stock exchange listing requirements, investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting and our stock price may decline as a result. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or any measures we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting or that they will prevent or avoid potential future material weaknesses.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we did not sell any unregistered equity securities or repurchase any of our equity securities.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.
