We had an outstanding second quarter with record performance across several important measures. And meaningful acceleration across our major strategic growth initiatives. Last quarter, we wrote approximately 43 thousand voluntary new business policies during the quarter. This is a company record. First time ever. Representing growth of approximately 54%. Compared with the second quarter of last year. And 44% sequentially from the first quarter of this year, compared with the second quarter of last year, and 44% sequentially from the first quarter of this year. And at the same time, we generated a record 46.4 million of income before taxes. A record for the entire company for a single quarter. I am happy to report we also ended the quarter with more than 1 billion of in-force premium and approximately 462 thousand policies in force. These are both important milestones. And they demonstrate the scale our platform is achieving. Taken together, we believe these results demonstrate the increasing strength of American Integrity's organic growth engine. it is never been stronger The platform we have built for over 2 decades is generating meaningful voluntary growth through our established distribution relationships. And while the improved Florida insurance environment is allowing us to expand thoughtfully in the markets and risk categories we have significant experience and underwriting expertise. As we discussed last quarter, we believe voluntary market opportunities, expansion into very attractive segments. Of the Florida market and thoughtfully selected geographic expansion throughout the Southeast. All 3 of these will drive our growth. We believe that the second quarter provided further evidence that these initiatives are working and more importantly, our momentum is broad based. As many of you know, over these last several quarters, we have consistently highlighted 3 primary areas of opportunity. 1. The Tri County region of Florida. 2. Middle aged homes, And 3. our expansion states in the Southeast. During the second quarter, I am pleased to report that every 1 of these initiatives continues to gain meaningful traction. Let's start with Tri County. We wrote more than 7.6 thousand voluntary new business policies during the quarter. Now, this compares to less than 200 in the prior year period. that is obviously a 40x increase. Second, in middle aged homes, we wrote more than 9 thousand voluntary new business policies during the quarter. This compares to less than 450 in the prior year period. that is a 21x increase. These are particularly attractive areas for us. Because they represent markets and risks where we have considerable underwriting expertise and experience, historical data, and importantly, very deep and long standing existing agency relationships. So we are not pursuing growth by moving outside our core competencies. As the economics of the Florida insurance market have improved. We are expanding participation in markets that we know very well. Importantly, our voluntary growth is being generated. Through our traditional distribution channels and underwriting platform. And we believe that type of growth creates a broader, more sustainable, and increasingly diversified earnings engine for American integrity. Outside of Florida, production also accelerated very meaningfully. As we continued to expand our presence across the Southeast. During the second quarter, new business policies written in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina increased 40% year-over-year, up from a 23% increase year-over-year in just Q1 2026. Momentum is happening. These markets complement our existing builder, and agency distribution relationships and they provide another avenue for disciplined organic growth. While all these markets remain a relatively small portion of our overall portfolio today. We believe they represent a very attractive opportunity to generate profitable growth while we further diversify our business over time. These markets also allow us to deepen our relationships with existing homeowner affiliated agents. And other distribution partners, both nationally and regionally. Who already know American Integrity and want to do more business with us across multiple markets. Another important driver of our success continues to be our distribution network. What is particularly notable about our recent growth is that it is being driven primarily by long standing agency relationships rather than brand new distribution partnerships. For markets such as Tri County, middle aged homes, our agency partners already know our underwriting philosophy, They understand our operating platform. And they are ready to respond as we expand our appetite for these risks. We continue to hear a consistent message from our agents. They value stability, responsiveness, and ease of doing business. We are also seeing increased engagement from agency partners who are looking to consolidate more of their business with a smaller number of trusted carriers and we are 1 of them. We believe our service level, our underwriting consistency, and our long standing commitment to the market position us extremely well to capture a larger share of business within existing agency relationships. Now this is a very important competitive advantage that is unique to American integrity. Much of our strongest group again, is coming from these established relationships. So we believe this allows us not only to generate more submissions, more volume, but also to attract very high quality business from partners who understand who we are and what we write. That is the value of the distribution franchise that has taken over 20 years to build. This leads to another really important point. The evidence continues to reinforce our view. That Florida's legislative reforms are producing the intended results from the reform almost 4 years ago. Litigation activity for the entire industry, especially for us, continues a solid decline Loss-cost trends remain very favorable, and reinsurance pricing has meaningfully improved. At the same time, consumers are beginning to benefit. With increased insurance availability and more moderate pricing. We view the current environment as evidence of a very healthy and sustainable marketplace. And there is not irrational competition. Importantly, as consumers increasingly experience these benefits, We believe the reforms become more durable over time. From our perspective, that durability creates a much more stable operating environment for both insurers and policyholders. So despite a somewhat softer market environment nationally, our premium per policy remains generally stable across our portfolio. Given the mix shift of our portfolio. Growth in higher valued homes, Tri-County, middle-aged homes, and commercial residential business. Have largely offset modest rate reductions elsewhere in the book. Additionally, our inflation guard provides support. As rates modestly decline. Overall, we believe we are entering the second half of this year. We will roll into it. From a position of considerable strength. We are generating record voluntary production We are expanding successfully and thoughtfully across multiple growth channels for benefiting from favorable market dynamics. All while maintaining very attractive. Underwriting economics. We believe that combination of expanding the long term earning power of American integrity. With that, let me now turn the call over to John. Jon Phillip Ritchie: Thanks, Bob. I will spend a few minutes going a bit deeper on what we are seeing in the business and how that is translating into our results. And then provide an update on our recently completed catastrophe reinsurance renewal. Starting with our results, we continue to see strong growth in our core Florida market and across our expansion states in the Southeast. During the second quarter, gross premiums written increased 13.8% to approximately $327 million dollars Retention continued to climb to 84.4% up from 83.6% in the first quarter, and policies in force increased to approximately 462 thousand up 15.7% year over year and 5.6% sequentially from the first quarter. The growth reflects strong voluntary production across the business. Looking first at Tri County, production levels are encouraging. But we remain substantially underpenetrated relative to the size of the opportunity. As a reminder, Tri County represents approximately 28% of Florida households while accounting for only a modest portion of our current policies in force. We believe this represents substantial opportunity for profitable growth over time. In addition, approximately 1-third of our Florida voluntary new business gross premium written production during the quarter came from Tri County policies. Compared with only a very small contribution in the prior-year quarter. Highlighting the momentum we are currently seeing in the market. We believe we have strong support from our distribution partners increasing consumer demand and favorable economics that will allow us to pursue growth while maintaining our underwriting discipline. The same is true for middle-aged homes. As we have discussed previously, this was historically the core of our business and an area where we have deep underwriting experience and long standing agency relationships. We reduced our participation in this market during the height of Florida's litigation crisis, and the legislative reforms have enabled us to reenter this segment in a measured and profitable way. Since expanding our participation, results have been very encouraging. Middle-aged homes represented 24% of our voluntary new business gross written premium, during the quarter compared to approximately 4% in the prior year period. We view this as an attractive opportunity because it combines significant market size with an area where we have considerable operating history and underwriting expertise. Importantly, we believe both Tri-County and middle-aged homes provide meaningful growth opportunities without requiring us to depart from our core underwriting competencies. Outside of Florida, our expansion states continue to gain traction. During the second quarter, new business policies written in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina increased 40% year-over-year, while new business gross premiums written increased 50%. These states represented approximately 18% of voluntary new business policies and 10% of voluntary new business gross premiums written during the quarter. While still a relatively small contributor to our overall portfolio today, we believe these results demonstrate the portability of our distribution relationships and operating model. When we entered these new states, we led with our HO3 product. Given the success we have experienced thus far, we are now evaluating opportunities to broaden our product offerings outside Florida. Including products such as dwelling and marine, our agents have demonstrated demand, We intend to approach that expansion with the same discipline we have applied to our geographic growth. Turning to reinsurance. I am very pleased with the outcome of our June 1 catastrophe excess of loss renewal. We successfully renewed our program with meaningful risk adjusted rate reductions at the upper end of the 15% to 20% declines observed in the market while maintaining our target protection levels and improving our overall retention structure. Despite approximately 19% growth in peak season exposure, our first event retention remained unchanged at 35 million. Additionally, our aggregate 4-event retention declined from $95 million to 75 million further improving our net risk profile. We also maintained our program at a targeted 1 in 1 hundred and 30 year probable maximum loss level. We believe this outcome reflects both favorable market conditions and the strength of our long standing reinsurance relationships. The renewed program provides approximately $3 billion of total catastrophe protection including approximately 2.25 billion of third party coverage for a single catastrophic event. In short, we achieved lower risk adjusted pricing maintained our targeted protection level, and reduced our aggregate retention. All while growing peak season exposure by approximately 19%, we believe that is an excellent outcome. The improved economics of the renewal reflect both favorable reinsurance market conditions and the continued benefits of Florida's legislative reforms. We continue to believe reinsurance tailwinds will be an important contributor to earnings and capital generation moving forward. We appreciate the long standing support of all of our reinsurance partners. Before turning things over to Brian, I want to briefly remind investors that our expected annual catastrophe reinsurance costs remains consistent with the $430 million to $440 million range we provided in connection with our June 1 renewal announcement. To conclude, we believe the operating environment remains highly constructive. Production is strong. Our major growth initiatives continue to gain traction. Our geographic expansion is progressing. And our renewed reinsurance program provides strong protection with improved economics. With that, let me turn the call over to Brian to walk through the financials. Brian Foley: Thanks, John. We generated net income of $34.1 million or $1.74 per diluted share and adjusted net income of $34.9 million or $1.78 per diluted share during the second quarter. This compares to net income of $27.5 million or $1.62 per diluted share and adjusted net income of $31.3 million or $1.84 per diluted share in the prior year period. Income before taxes was $46.4 million an increase of 93% from $24.1 million in the prior year quarter and the highest quarterly level in the company's history. The comparison to the prior year period was influenced by elevated citizens takeout activity during 2025, which created a temporary benefit to earnings and our IPO in the second quarter of 25, which resulted in onetime expenses. Turning to premiums. Gross premiums written increased to 326.6 million compared to $287 million in the prior year period representing an increase of 13.8%. This growth was driven by continued expansion in the voluntary market across our key growth initiatives. Gross premiums earned increased 8.3% to $242.3 million compared to 223.7 million in the prior year period. Seated premiums earned decreased to a $137.6 million compared to 157.6 million in the prior-year period. driven primarily by the reduction in our non catastrophe quota share cession from 40% to 25% beginning in 01/01/2026. As a result, net premiums earned increased 58.2% to $104.7 million compared to $66.2 million in the prior year period. There are 2 important forces driving this step up in net earned premiums. Strong underlying growth in the business and our decision to retain a greater portion of the economics of that business following the quota share reduction. We believe the combination is allowing more of the value created by our underwriting platform to accrue to American Integrity and its stockholders. Net investment income increased 30.8% to $6.3 million compared to 4.8 million in the prior year period. Shortly after quarter end, we deployed just shy of $200 million of cash into high quality fixed income securities, which positions us well for continued growth in investment income going forward. We expect our duration of approximately 2 years our credit quality, and asset mix to remain largely consistent with how we previously managed our investments following the reallocation of cash. Loss and loss adjustment expenses increased 33.2 million compared to $21.2 million in the prior year period. Primarily reflecting growth in net premiums earned driven by continued voluntary production and the reduction in our non-cat quota share arrangement. Our net loss ratio was 30.6%, consistent with 30.6% in the prior-year period. our net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio was 30.6 down from 33.1% in the prior year period. There were no cat losses and no prior-year development recognized during the quarter. Our gross underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio was 18.1% during the quarter, which we continue to view as a very attractive result and feel good about both the quality and pricing of the business we are writing today. Policy acquisition expenses increased to 17.4 million compared to $6.3 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by record levels of voluntary new business production, the absence of the Citizens takeout windfall, which carries minimal upfront acquisition costs, and lower ceding commission income resulting from the reduction in our quota share. General and administrative expenses decreased to $18.2 million compared to 22.9 million in the prior year period primarily driven by the absence of onetime IPO expenses recognized in the second quarter of 25 partially offset by the reduction of our quota share. Our expense ratio decreased to 32.8% compared to 42.3% in the prior year period. The combined ratio for the quarter was 63.4% compared to 72.9% in the prior-year period. We believe the 63.4% combined ratio demonstrates the attractive underwriting economics of the business particularly alongside the strong growth we generated during the quarter. Return on equity was 38.7%, in the quarter compared to 45.1% in the prior-year quarter, and adjusted return on equity was 39.6% in the quarter, compared to 51.3% in the prior-year quarter. As a reminder, the reduction of the quota share increased revenue and earnings but also increased the absolute dollars of expenses given lower ceding commission income and fewer non cat losses ceded away. This, along with Citizens' takeout benefits in 2025 make the year over year changes in some line items and ratios less directly comparable. We believe the underlying trajectory of our business remains strong. Stepping back, we believe the quarter demonstrates a powerful combination of strong organic growth disciplined underwriting, and increasing retention of the economics generated by our platform. Turning to our balance sheet. Shareholders' equity increased to $369.5 million at quarter end compared to $337 million at year end Book value per share increased to $18.86 representing growth of 22.3% year over year and 10.1% since Q1 26. We view book value growth as an important measure of the value we are creating for our stockholders, the increase in shareholders' equity reflects strong earnings generation and continued growth in the business, we believe our capital position provides substantial flexibility as we pursue the opportunities ahead of us. With that, I will turn the call back to the operator to open the line for questions. Operator: We will now begin the question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, To withdraw your question, press 1 again. We ask that you pick up your handset when asking a question to allow for optimum sound quality. If you are muted locally, please remember to unmute your device. Please standby while we compile the Q&A roster. Your first question is from Michael Phillips with Oppenheimer. Your line is now open. Please go ahead. Michael Phillips: Thank you. Good morning, everybody, and congrats on the quarter. First question is on the middle-aged home business. it is new for you or not new for you, but a new foray back into it. As that continues to grow, become a bigger part of your overall book, how do you compare the margin on that business to what is been your traditional business so far? Robert Craig Ritchie: Michael Bob Ritchie. Thank you for the question. I am going to start out, John, you can amplify it. Jon Phillip Ritchie: I want to assure you the way we are pricing, underwriting, selecting, binding, renewing. in middle-aged homes is entirely consistent with our combined ratio plans with the pure premium that we are observing, and most importantly, with the way that the underwriting team is looking at these risks and also ensuring that as it reaches potentially on the older part of its average age, that a new roof will be applied. So net, we are enjoying the same margins on this book as others. John, can you amplify that? Robert Craig Ritchie: Yeah. Just to expand on that. Jon Phillip Ritchie: We model and expect the underlying gross loss ratio to be a few points higher than the overall portfolio. But as Bob said, the premium we are collecting accommodates for that. So we are very happy with the business that we are generating and the long term profitability of that segment. Michael Phillips: I will also tell you, Mike. Robert Craig Ritchie: No problem. Yeah. I will give you an example. Go ahead. Michael Phillips: No, Bob. I did not mean to cut you off. Sorry. Robert Craig Ritchie: No. that is OK. Orange County, Orlando. We are we are back in a substantial market share opportunity, where before the reform happened, for protection, we had to reduce that. So in many cases, we are writing with the same agents, even some of the same alts. I am really bullish. About middle aged homes and what it is driving for us. Michael Phillips: Okay. Yeah. Thank you. that is that is very helpful. The second question, Bob, is I wanna ask you a little bit 1 of the comments you made at the end of your opening remarks. You said not gonna give the exact words, but something about as reforms become more durable over time in Florida, I wanna ask on that is what you meant by that because I guess what I have was thinking was that reforms are here. It seems to be their proof that they are working. That maybe already are adorable. And the reason I asked, Bob, is you know, it is the forms have clearly been in place for a couple years now a few years now, and I wonder if the rate environment has kept up with the benefits we have seen from the reforms. So it is but often there is a lag in when those 2 things happen. And maybe some of the lag has been, hey. We are not sure the reforms are stay. They are gonna work. And I think now there is confidence that they are. But I wonder that is why I am asking, know, what you meant by is reforms to go more durable. Robert Craig Ritchie: Sure. So my comments were not meant to be either tentative or temporary. My comments relate directly to the strength of Florida in as much as both public and private investors are returning. Now as respects the rate environment, 3 things drive rate increases. the what I call the lawyer tax which the 2022 slash 2023 reforms more than solved. Those have been worked through the system largely with all carriers. In the form of rate reductions because the loss costs are left. But what is also a dynamic for rate increases are reinsurance John talked about, and then, of course, inflation. Inflation's not zero, so we are still pegging it. Because of the increase in severity and increase in coverage a. Reinsurance has enjoyed a remarkable reduction, and for that, we have positioned product so that as you look at the entire pricing dynamic, that has been accomplished. So my comment on it is in no way meant to imply that it is tentative, yet to be realized, it is the strength of the investors that are returning to Florida that truly is allowing for new markets allowed us to go public, and has restored confidence throughout the world with investors and reinsurers. that is the topic. Michael Phillips: Okay. No. that is super clarification. Thank you for that. And, again, congrats on the quarter. Robert Craig Ritchie: Appreciate the question. Operator: Your next question is from Thomas Mcjoynt-Griffith with KBW. Your line is now open. Please go ahead. Thomas Mcjoynt-Griffith: Hey, good morning. Thanks for taking our questions. To start off, in the third quarter of last year, when there was no major hurricane loss, the quota share reinsurance created some noise resulting in a big upswing in the net underlying loss ratio. Can you talk about what we can expect in that net underlying loss ratio in the third quarter of this year if knock on wood, we get a similarly benign weather pattern. Thanks. Robert Craig Ritchie: Sure. Sure. I am gonna ask John to start out, and, John, we can rely upon Brian. Jon Phillip Ritchie: For some of the optics. Go ahead. Robert Craig Ritchie: Yeah. Brian Foley: Brian, why do not you take this 1? Yeah. Yeah. So Tommy the quota share is a non-cat quota share, but it actually allows us to see the some de minimis cat losses to that treaty. So what you said was correct whereby in a clean cat year, that kinda creates a little bit of elevated core loss ratio in that quarter. But then what happens is we actually get that back through increased seeding commission going forward, but we do not kinda settle that until the end of the treaty, which would be in Q4. So there is a little bit of, timing dynamics there. Thomas Mcjoynt-Griffith: Okay. Got it. That makes sense. And then switching over, you are generating very strong, you know, ROEs this year. But you are still growing net premiums pretty significantly too, especially with the quota share reinsurance coming down. Can you talk about your capacity for how much room you still have to grow? Should we be simply looking at premium leverage, or are there other measures that help frame your capacity? Jon Phillip Ritchie: Yeah. Thanks for the question, Tommy. Look, Robert Craig Ritchie: We feel very good about the trajectory of our growth, and we certainly have the capital to continue to do that. We will see what the wind season has in store for us, but you should feel pretty confident that we can continue to execute with our current capital base. When you look at all the numbers in terms of gross net writings, RBC ratios, all very, very healthy. We got the wherewithal. We have got the capital. To continue this remarkable and historic growth rate. Thomas Mcjoynt-Griffith: Thank you. Operator: Your next question is from Paul Newsome with Piper Sandler. Your line is now open. Please go ahead. Jon Paul Newsome: Good morning. Thanks for the call. Maybe a few additional thoughts on and color on the new products that you are implementing. sounds like these are a little bit different from a maybe demographic. I think it is dwelling fire as being sort of more modest homes. Good. And I am curious as well about the impact that would have on sort of the overall portfolio. Particularly from a-- Yep. Robert Craig Ritchie: Morning, Paul. Thanks for the question. John. Jon Phillip Ritchie: And they are new to states, not to us. Can you explain, John, what you meant by that comment? The follow-up we are doing is so we launched in Georgia South Carolina and North Carolina just for the homeowners' line of business. What we are looking to do and we are building out for the remainder of this year to launch in 2027 is a dwelling fire product and a marine small boat owner product that we currently have in Florida but our agency partners in those states have requested that we broaden the portfolio offering in those 3 states, so that is what we meant by that. So it is complementary in terms of what we are doing in Florida. We are just expanding in those 3 states with those lines. Jon Paul Newsome: You know, maybe a little bit of an update on, you know, what you think is happening with your, you know, probable maximum loss and your overall catastrophe exposure as you are expanding both the Tri-County area, but also in the southeast. You know, is PML going up, or is there a diversification benefit? And how should we think about that? Robert Craig Ritchie: Thoughtful question, John. Can you talk about the balance we are achieving? Jon Phillip Ritchie: Yeah. Absolutely. So, certainly, PML is increasing just with exposure growing at the rate that it is, but it is not at the same rate of exposure growth for exactly the reason that I think you were leading to Paul is the growth in Tri County, and the reemergence back into Central Florida with middle aged homes is allowing diversification of the PML from an exposure perspective and taking some pressure off some peak zones that we had prior to this expansion and diversification of writings. So we view it as accretive net, and we are really pleased with the way that balanced out for our June 1 renewal and as we look out for next year's renewal. Jon Paul Newsome: Thanks, guys. Congratulations. Robert Craig Ritchie: Of course. Thanks, Paul, for your support and questions. Operator: Your next question is from Mitchell Rubin with Raymond James. Your line is now open. Please go ahead. Mitchell Rubin: Hey, good morning. This is Mitch on for Greg. You mentioned in the prepared remarks that you deployed around the $200 million into fixed income securities after the quarter. What yield are you earning on that relative to your book yield? And how should we think about net investment income in the third and fourth quarters against the tougher post IPO comp? Operator: Go ahead, Brian. Brian Foley: Yeah. Thanks, Mitchell. So we did take 200 million of cash and deploy that into our fixed income portfolio. After the quarter. I think book yield, you can kinda think about that. In the mid fours. I think new money rates are you know, high fours, maybe even approaching 5 depending on the product. So we expect kind of a continued steady growth in net investment income going forward? Mitchell Rubin: Got it. Thank you. Could you provide some color on what you are seeing in new construction volumes across your builder partners right now? And how sensitive your new business pace is to elevated mortgage rates? Jon Phillip Ritchie: John, can you take that 1? Yeah. So, we certainly have seen a plateau of new builds and new construction in Florida. With that being said, we are still getting a very healthy share of wallet of those new builds with our builder agents. But the diversification of distribution that we enjoy with the builder agents are national accounts, independent agents is allowing us to diversify that production on a daily basis, along with the expansion into our opening up in Tri County and reemergence back into middle-aged homes. So that diversification is allowing us to continue very healthy new business production, which we saw this quarter but we are still receiving a very good share of the new builds in Florida. Robert Craig Ritchie: And so what this means, this is Bob again, is that while the Florida build is still remarkable by the way, lot of people still moving. May have slowed down just a little bit, because of the strength of Dick Dowd in our sales team. Because of the strength of Brent Radeloff, our head underwriter, we are in a position working with our distributors of more than making up for that lesser amount in Florida with the other new states. So net, we are writing the same amount of new construction, new business policies each day, which is exciting. Mitchell Rubin: I appreciate the answers, and congrats on the quarter. Robert Craig Ritchie: Thank you. Operator: We have now reached the end of the Q&A session. I will now turn the call back to Bob for concluding remarks. Thank you, Joel. Robert Craig Ritchie: Guys, I am going to spend just a few minutes, a little bit longer, but closing. Given what this quarter means. But as we close, I want to put this quarter in perspective. For you as investors, reinsurers, shareholders, employees, and leaders of the company. This was an exceptional quarter for American Integrity. And by many measures, the strongest quarter in our company's history for 20 years. We delivered record voluntary new business production and record pre-tax earnings we surpassed 1 billion of in force premium We generated strong returns, broaden our opportunities for growth as we have explained here to you. We have improved our reinsurance economics. These results demonstrate the increasing strength, scale, and earnings power of American integrity. For nearly 2 decades we have navigated dramatically different market cycles, We have proven through hurricanes, difficult insurance markets, legal crisis, reinsurance disruptions, and all through the extraordinary change. That this company was built, not just to last, but to grow as it is available, and today it is. And so through it all, we have remained grounded in disciplined underwriting, thoughtful risk selection, and responsible stewardship But here's the deal. Numbers alone do not tell the story of this quarter. Our people do. I am extraordinarily proud of the leadership team, and all 350 American Integrity employees Some of you are listening this morning. Behind every result we reported this morning, are people who care deeply about this company. About 1 another, and about the people that we serve. Many of our people have been with us for years. Some for decades. Some for the entire part of our journey. And they have helped build this company through some of the most challenging periods that our industry has ever experienced. They stayed They persevered. They adapted. They continued to believe in 1 another. And in American integrity. Through the good years and the difficult ones, they showed up every day and did the work. They took care of our policyholders. They supported our agency partners. They helped 1 another. And they continue to live the values upon which this company was founded. I want our people to know how deeply grateful I am for what they have given to American integrity, Their commitment, resilience, and belief in this company has helped make everything we reported this morning possible. So in concluding, while today we are celebrating an exceptional quarter, I am even more proud of the company and the culture we have built for over 2 decades. I am equally proud of our leaders across the organization You would be proud of every 1 of them. They understand that leadership is not simply about producing 1 great quarter. it is about building an enduring company. it is about developing people. Making disciplined decisions, protecting our culture, and leaving American integrity stronger for those who follow. That loyalty matters to me. That leadership matters. And that culture matters. Because integrity is not simply our name. it is a standard we have abided by since the first day we have thought of this company. And the culture built around that standard is indeed 1 of our greatest competitive advantages. So to our employees, agency partners, policyholders, investors, and reinsurers. Thank you. These record results belong to all of you. And so as we enter the home stretch of 2026, with tremendous momentum, and exceptional team and a company stronger than at any point in our history. 2 decades ended this of this journey, I have never been more proud of our people or more confident. In American integrity And in closing, I firmly believe our best years are still ahead of us. Thank you for your confidence and American integrity. Have an amazing day.

Record voluntary new business policies written in Q2 2026, up 54% year-over-year and 44% sequentially, driven by strong growth in Tri-County and middle-aged homes. Record pre-tax income of $46.4 million for the quarter, the highest in company history, with a combined ratio of 63.4% demonstrating strong underwriting economics. Successful June 1 catastrophe reinsurance renewal with risk-adjusted rate reductions at the upper end of market declines, maintaining target protection levels and reducing aggregate retention. Strong growth in expansion states (Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina) with new business policies up 40% year-over-year, showing successful geographic diversification. Improved net loss ratio and underlying loss ratio, with no catastrophe losses or prior year development recognized during the quarter. Deployment of approximately $200 million into fixed income securities positions the company for continued growth in investment income. Elevated Citizens takeout activity during 2025 created a temporary benefit to earnings, making year-over-year comparisons less favorable. Policy acquisition expenses increased significantly due to record voluntary new business production and lower ceding commission income from quota share reduction. The reduction in the non-catastrophe quota share from 40% to 25% increased revenue but also increased absolute expenses, impacting expense ratios. Return on equity decreased to 38.7% from 45.1% in the prior year quarter, partly due to the quota share changes and one-time IPO expenses. Potential for elevated net underlying loss ratio in Q3 if a benign weather pattern occurs, due to timing dynamics in the quota share treaty settlement. New construction volumes in Florida have plateaued, requiring diversification into other markets to maintain production levels. Q: As middle-aged home business grows and becomes a bigger part of your growth book, how do you compare the margin on that business to your traditional business?A: Bob Ritchie (Founder and CEO) stated that the company prices, underwrites, selects, binds, and renews these risks entirely consistently with their combined ratio plans and observed pure premiums. Jon Ritchie (CFO) added that while they model the underlying gross loss ratio to be a few points higher than the overall portfolio, the premium collected accommodates for that, making them very happy with the long-term profitability of that segment. Q: Can you talk about what we can expect in the net underlying loss ratio in the third quarter of this year if we get a similarly benign weather pattern as last year?A: Brian (Executive) explained that the non-cat quota share treaty allows them to cede some de minimis cat losses, which can create a slightly elevated core loss ratio in a clean cat year. However, they receive that back through increased ceding commission, which is settled at the end of the treaty in Q4, creating some timing dynamics. Q: You're generating very strong ROEs this year, but still growing net premiums significantly. Can you talk about your capacity for how much room you still have to grow?A: Brian (Executive) stated they feel very good about the trajectory of their growth and have the capital to continue executing with their current capital base. Bob Ritchie (CEO) added that all their numbers, including gross net writings and RBC ratios, are very healthy, giving them the wherewithal to continue their historic growth rate. Q: Could you provide some color on what you're seeing in new construction volumes across your builder partners and how sensitive your new business pace is to elevated mortgage rates?A: Jon Ritchie (CFO) noted a plateau in new builds in Florida, but they are still getting a very healthy share of wallet with builder agents. The diversification of distribution through builder agents, national accounts, and independent agents is allowing them to continue very healthy new business production. Bob Ritchie (CEO) added that despite a slight slowdown in Florida, they are more than making up for it with new states, writing the same amount of new construction policies each day. Q: You mentioned deploying around $200 million into fixed income securities after the quarter. What yield are you earning on that relative to your book yield, and how should we think about net investment income in the third and fourth quarters?A: Brian (Executive) said the book yield is in the mid-4s, while new money rates are in the high 4s, possibly approaching 5% depending on the product. They expect continued steady growth in net investment income going forward. Q: Can you provide some thoughts on the new products you're implementing, like Dwelling Fire, and the impact that would have on the overall portfolio?A: Jon Ritchie (CFO) clarified that these products are new to the expansion states, not to the company. They launched in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina with homeowners, and are building out to launch Dwelling Fire and Marine small boat owner products in 2027, which are currently offered in Florida. Agency partners in those states have requested the broader portfolio offering. Q: What is happening with your probable maximum loss (PML) and overall cat exposure as you expand in the Tri-County area and other states? Is PML going up or is there a diversification benefit?A: Jon Ritchie (CFO) stated that PML is increasing with exposure growth, but not at the same rate due to diversification. The growth in Tri-County and the reemergence into Central Florida with middle-aged homes is allowing diversification of the PML from an exposure perspective, taking pressure off some peak zones. They view this as accretive net-net. Q: You mentioned reforms becoming more durable over time in Florida. What did you mean by that, and has the rate environment kept up with the benefits seen from the reforms?A: Bob Ritchie (CEO) clarified his comments were not tentative, but related to the strength of Florida as public and private investors return. He explained that rate increases are driven by the "lawyer tax" (solved by 2022/23 reforms), reinsurance (which has seen remarkable reductions), and inflation. The pricing dynamic has been accomplished, and the return of investors is restoring confidence throughout the world.

Our analysts just identified a stock with the potential to be the next Nvidia. Tell us how you invest and we'll show you why it's our #1 pick. Tap here. Achieved record voluntary new business growth of 54% year-over-year, driven by the strongest organic growth engine in the company's 20-year history. Performance was bolstered by Florida's legislative reforms, which have led to a solid decline in litigation activity and favorable loss-cost trends. Strategic expansion into the Tri-County region and middle-aged home segments saw voluntary new business policy production increase 40x and 21x respectively year-over-year., leveraging deep underwriting expertise and existing agency relationships. The company surpassed $1 billion of in-force premium, demonstrating significant platform scale and the ability to capture market share as competitors exit or stabilize. Management attributes the quarter's success to a 'disciplined organic growth' model that prioritizes established distribution channels over brand-new partnerships. Premium per policy remains stable as growth in higher-valued homes and commercial residential business offsets modest rate reductions elsewhere in the portfolio. Management expects continued momentum in the Southeast expansion states (GA, SC, NC), which saw a 40% increase in new business policies this quarter. Plans are underway to broaden product offerings outside Florida to include dwelling fire and marine products by 2027 to meet agency demand. The company anticipates sustained benefits from its June 1 catastrophe reinsurance renewal, which achieved 15% to 20% risk-adjusted rate reductions. Guidance for annual catastrophe reinsurance costs remains steady at the $430 million to $440 million range despite a 19% increase in peak season exposure. Future earnings power is expected to benefit from the strategic decision to reduce the non-catastrophe quota share cession from 40% to 25%, retaining more underwriting economics. The 63.4% combined ratio reflects attractive underwriting economics but was influenced by the absence of catastrophe losses and prior-year development during the quarter. Net investment income is poised for growth following the post-quarter deployment of approximately $200 million in cash into high-quality fixed income securities. Year-over-year expense comparisons are impacted by the absence of one-time IPO expenses from 2025 and the reduction in ceding commission income due to lower quota share levels. The company maintained its targeted 1-in-130 year probable maximum loss (PML) protection level while reducing aggregate 4-event retention from $95 million to $75 million. One stock. Nvidia-level potential. 30M+ investors trust Moby to find it first. Get the pick. Tap here. Management confirmed that middle-aged homes are priced to achieve margins consistent with the overall portfolio, despite modeling a gross loss ratio a few points higher. Profitability is maintained through strict underwriting requirements, such as requiring new roofs for older properties within the segment. CEO Bob Ritchie clarified that 'durability' refers to the return of global investor and reinsurer confidence, which has stabilized the market. Rate reductions are being passed to consumers as 'lawyer tax' costs decline, while inflation and reinsurance costs remain the primary drivers of future pricing dynamics. While absolute PML is increasing due to total exposure growth, the rate of increase is mitigated by diversification benefits from Tri-County and Southeast expansion. Growth in Central Florida and outside the state is effectively taking pressure off previous peak zones in the portfolio. Management acknowledged a plateau in Florida new builds but noted they are maintaining a high 'share of wallet' with builder partners. The company is offsetting any slowdown in new construction by increasing volume through independent agents and national account channels.

Record growth and earnings: American Integrity reported second-quarter net income of $34.1 million, while voluntary new-business policies rose 54% year over year to a record 43,000. In-force premiums surpassed $1 billion, supported by 13.8% growth in gross premiums written. Florida and Southeast expansion: Tri-County and middle-aged homes drove Florida growth, contributing 7,600 and 9,000 new-business policies, respectively. New-business policies in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina increased 40%, with potential product expansion planned for 2027. Stronger underwriting and reinsurance position: The combined ratio improved to 63.4% from 72.9%, with no catastrophe losses reported. Reinsurance renewal reduced aggregate four-event retention to $75 million from $95 million, while shareholders’ equity rose to $369.5 million. American Integrity Insurance Group (NYSE:AII) reported record second-quarter earnings and voluntary new-business production, as the Florida-focused property insurer expanded in key in-state markets and continued building its presence across the Southeast. The company generated net income of $34.1 million, or $1.74 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2026, compared with $27.5 million, or $1.62 per diluted share, a year earlier. Adjusted net income was $34.9 million, or $1.78 per diluted share, compared with $31.3 million, or $1.84 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. → SoundHound AI Sends a Loud Signal After Its Q2 Earnings Beat Income before taxes rose 93% year over year to a quarterly record of $46.4 million. Chief Financial Officer Brian Foley said comparisons with the prior year were affected by elevated Citizens takeout activity in 2025, which provided a temporary earnings benefit, as well as one-time expenses associated with the company’s 2025 initial public offering. Founder and Chief Executive Officer Bob Ritchie said the company wrote about 43,000 voluntary new-business policies during the quarter, a company record. That represented growth of approximately 54% from the second quarter of 2025 and 44% sequentially from the first quarter. → AST SpaceMobile Earnings Just Reminded Investors How Risky Space Can Be American Integrity ended the quarter with more than $1 billion in in-force premium and approximately 462,000 policies in force. Policies in force increased 15.7% from a year earlier and 5.6% sequentially, while retention rose to 84.4% from 83.6% in the first quarter. Gross premiums written increased 13.8% to $326.6 million, while gross premiums earned increased 8.3% to $242.3 million. Net premiums earned rose 58.2% to $104.7 million, driven by underlying business growth and the company’s decision to retain more of its underwriting economics after reducing its non-catastrophe quota-share cession to 25% from 40% beginning Jan. 1. → First Solar’s Profit Engine Faces a New Policy Test in Washington “The platform we have built for over two decades is generating meaningful voluntary growth through our established distribution relationships,” Bob Ritchie said, adding that the company is expanding in markets and risk categories where it has underwriting experience. Management highlighted growth in Florida’s Tri-County region and in middle-aged homes as two key strategic initiatives. The company wrote more than 7,600 voluntary new-business policies in Tri-County during the quarter, compared with fewer than 200 in the prior-year period. Tri-County represented roughly one-third of the company’s Florida voluntary new-business gross written premium during the quarter. Jon Ritchie, the company’s president, said Tri-County accounts for about 28% of Florida households but remains a modest portion of American Integrity’s current policy count, leaving room for further expansion. The company also wrote more than 9,000 voluntary new-business policies for middle-aged homes, compared with fewer than 450 a year earlier. Those homes represented 24% of voluntary new-business gross written premium, up from approximately 4% in the prior-year quarter. Management said it had reduced its participation in middle-aged homes during Florida’s litigation crisis, but legislative reforms enabled a measured return to the segment. In response to an analyst question, Jon Ritchie said the company expects the underlying gross loss ratio for middle-aged homes to be “a few points higher” than its overall portfolio, though the premiums being collected are intended to accommodate that difference. Bob Ritchie said the company is returning to markets where it has worked with many of the same agents and, in some cases, insured the same homes before pulling back during the litigation environment. Outside Florida, new-business policies written in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina increased 40% year over year in the second quarter, accelerating from a 23% increase in the first quarter. New-business gross premiums written in those states rose 50%. The three expansion states accounted for approximately 18% of voluntary new-business policies and 10% of voluntary new-business gross premiums written during the quarter. The company currently offers its HO-3 homeowners product in those markets and is evaluating a broader rollout of dwelling fire and marine small-boat-owner products in 2027. Jon Ritchie said those products are not new to the insurer but would be new offerings in the three expansion states, where agency partners have requested a broader product lineup. Management also said that new-home construction in Florida has plateaued, though the company continues to receive what it described as a healthy share of business from builder agents. It said its mix of builder agents, national accounts, independent agents and newer market opportunities has supported continued policy production. The company renewed its June 1 catastrophe excess-of-loss reinsurance program at risk-adjusted rate reductions at the upper end of the 15% to 20% market declines it observed. The renewal maintained American Integrity’s target protection levels while improving its retention structure, management said. Peak-season exposure increased approximately 19%. First-event retention remained $35 million. Aggregate four-event retention declined to $75 million from $95 million. The program maintained a targeted 1-in-130-year probable maximum loss level. Total catastrophe protection was approximately $3 billion, including about $2.25 billion of third-party coverage for a single event. The company reaffirmed expected annual catastrophe reinsurance costs of $430 million to $440 million. Jon Ritchie said growth in Tri-County and the company’s renewed focus on central Florida middle-aged homes are diversifying exposure and reducing pressure on certain peak zones, even as overall probable maximum loss rises with total exposure growth. American Integrity reported a net loss ratio of 30.6%, unchanged from the prior-year quarter. Its net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio improved to 30.6% from 33.1%, while its gross underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio was 18.1%. The company reported no catastrophe losses and no prior-year development in the quarter. The combined ratio improved to 63.4% from 72.9% a year earlier, and the expense ratio declined to 32.8% from 42.3%. Net investment income increased 30.8% to $6.3 million. After the quarter ended, the company deployed nearly $200 million of cash into high-quality fixed-income securities. Foley said the existing portfolio yield was in the mid-4% range, while new-money yields were in the high-4% range and could approach 5% depending on the investment product. Shareholders’ equity rose to $369.5 million at quarter-end from $337 million at year-end. Book value per share reached $18.86, up 22.3% year over year and 10.1% from the first quarter. Management said it believes its current capital base provides capacity to continue executing its growth strategy, subject to the outcome of the wind season.

Gross premiums earned in the second quarter of 2026 increased by $18.6 million to $242.3 million from $223.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. Ceded premiums earned in the second quarter of 2026 decreased by $20.0 million to $137.6 million compared to $157.6 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to the reduction in our non-catastrophe quota share reinsurance arrangement. Net premiums earned in the second quarter of 2026 increased by $38.5 million to $104.7 million from $66.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. Net investment income in the second quarter of 2026 increased $1.4 million to $6.2 million compared to $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to the increase in our invested assets, driven by the increased in-force premiums and the proceeds from our IPO. Losses and loss adjustment expenses ("LAE") for the second quarter of 2026 increased $12.0 million to $33.2 million compared to $21.2 million for the second quarter of 2025. The loss and loss adjustment expenses ratio was 30.6% for the second quarter of 2026 which was consistent with the second quarter of 2025 of 30.6%. The net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio was 30.6% for the second quarter of 2026, down from 33.1% for the second quarter of 2025. Policy acquisition expenses and general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2026 were $17.4 million and $18.2 million, respectively, compared to $6.3 million and $22.9 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2025. Period over period changes were due to record setting new business production in the second quarter of 2026, the absence of one-time IPO-related expenses, the reduction in our non-catastrophe quota share reinsurance arrangement from 40% to 25% on January 1, 2026 and the benefit of Citizens take-outs in 2025. The expense ratio was 32.8% for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 42.3% for the second quarter of 2025. The combined ratio was 63.4% for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 72.9% for the second quarter of 2025. Results of Operations Policies in-force and in-force premium Policies in-force represents the number of active insurance policies with coverage in effect as of the end of the period referenced. In-force premium represents the annual premium for active insurance policies with coverage in effect as of the end of the period referenced. Policies in-force were 461,714 as of June 30, 2026, an increase of 15.7% compared to policies in-force of 399,138 as of June 30, 2025, and an increase of 5.6% compared to policies in-force of 437,308 as of March 31, 2026. The increase in our policies in-force was primarily due to new policies written through the voluntary market and the 2025 Citizens take-outs. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income excluding net realized gains or losses on investments, stock compensation expense incurred in connection with our IPO, and certain non-recurring or non-cash expenses, including those incurred in connection with our IPO, net of tax. We use adjusted net income as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives us and users of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance excluding the impact of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities, and one time items, which we do not view as core to the underlying trends in our business. Adjusted net income should not be viewed as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted net income differently. Net income increased $6.6 million, or 24.2%, to $34.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $27.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted net income increased by $3.6 million, or 11.4%, to $34.9 million from $31.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP measure, which is calculated as adjusted net income available to common shareholders divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. Management believes this metric is meaningful, as it allows investors to evaluate underlying profitability and enhances comparability across periods by excluding items that are heavily impacted by investment market fluctuations and other economic factors and are not indicative of operating trends. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 reconcile to net income and earnings per share, respectively, as follows: Adjusted return on equity Adjusted return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as adjusted net income divided by the average of beginning and ending shareholders’ equity during the applicable period and is annualized for periods of less than one year. We use adjusted return on equity as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives us and users of our financial information useful insight into our underlying business performance. Adjusted return on equity should not be viewed as a substitute for any metrics calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted return on equity differently. Adjusted return on equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 reconciles to return on equity as follows: Net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio Net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio is a non-GAAP measure. We calculate the net underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio by subtracting current year net catastrophe losses and prior year net reserve development from total net losses and LAE and dividing that amount by the sum of total net premiums earned plus policy fees. We use the net underlying loss and LAE ratio to allow us to analyze our loss trends before the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development. 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 both separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the net loss and LAE ratio. The net underlying loss and LAE ratio should not be considered a substitute for the net loss and LAE ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business. The following tables summarize the loss and LAE ratios and the net underlying loss and LAE ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025: Gross underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio Gross underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio is a non-GAAP measure. We calculate the gross underlying loss and LAE ratio by adding net underlying loss and LAE and ceded non-catastrophe losses and dividing that amount by the sum of total gross premiums earned and policy fees. We use the gross underlying loss and LAE ratio to analyze our loss trends before the impact of reinsurance. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate the cost of non-catastrophe losses for every dollar of gross premiums earned. The most comparable GAAP measure is the net loss and LAE ratio. The gross underlying loss and LAE ratio should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business. The following tables summarize the gross underlying loss and LAE ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025: Conference Call As previously announced, American Integrity will hold a conference call to discuss its second quarter 2026 results at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on August 12, 2026.

All statements other than statements of historical facts may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our outlook; our business strategy; writing new business and retaining existing policies; new insurance products; availability of reinsurance coverage; expectations regarding future growth; future Citizens take-out opportunities; anticipated future operating results and operating expenses, cash flows, capital resources and liquidity; reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses; geographic expansion; reduction of our quota share and its impact on our results; competition; future regulatory, judicial and legislative changes; forecasts of future revenues and appropriately planning our expenses; and our plans regarding our capital expenditures and investment portfolios. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "anticipates," "believes," "contemplates," "continue," "could," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "may," "plans," "potential," "predicts," "projects," "should," "targets," "will," "would" or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance, and are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: the potential that we may face significant losses due to being a property and casualty insurer and our exposure to catastrophic events and severe weather conditions; our loss reserves are estimates and may be inadequate to cover our actual liability for losses, and actual claims incurred have exceeded, and in the future may exceed, reserves established for claims; the dependence of our financial results on the regulatory, legal, economic and weather conditions in Florida due to the fact that we conduct substantially all of our business in Florida; changing climate conditions may increase the severity and frequency of catastrophic events and severe weather conditions; the severity and frequency of catastrophe events of which are unpredictable; dependence upon the effectiveness of exclusions and other loss limitation methods in the insurance policies we assume or write; reliance upon third-party distribution partners, including independent insurance agents, homebuilder-affiliated agents and national insurance carriers; our ability to pursue Citizens take-out opportunities; cyclical changes in the insurance industry; our ability to obtain reinsurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates, or at all; credit risk of our reinsurers who may suffer a downgrade; the inherent uncertainty of models and our reliance on such models as a tool to evaluate risk, and the dependence of our results upon our ability to accurately price the risks we underwrite; the possibility that our information technology systems may fail or be disrupted; our ability to expand our business and the possible need to acquire additional capital in the future to fund such expansion; the ability of our claims department, or the third-party claims adjusters whom we may engage, to effectively manage or remediate claims as well as unanticipated increases in the severity or frequency of claims; the possibility that actual renewals of our existing policies will not meet expectations; increased competition and market conditions, including changes in our financial stability and credit ratings; the extensive regulatory environment in which we operate that requires approval of rate increases, can mandate rate decreases, and that can dictate underwriting practices and mandate participation in loss sharing arrangements, and other potential further restrictive regulation we may face; mandatory assessments or competition from government entities may create short-term liabilities or affect our ability to underwrite more policies; and other risks identified in "Risk Factors" in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which such statements were made, except to the extent required by law.
