CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ODYSSEY GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021
AND
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021
Report of Independent Auditors
To the Board of Directors of Odyssey Group Holdings, Inc.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Odyssey Group Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders' equity and of cash flows for the years
then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US
GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet
our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe
that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design,
implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or
events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not
detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are
considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the
judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, 300 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017
T: (646) 471 3000,www.pwc.com/us
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
● Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
● Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial
statements.
● Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
● Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial
statements.
● Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the
audit.
Other Matters
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the information about incurred and
paid claims development that precedes the current reporting period and the historical claims payout percentages included
in Note 6 from page 32 to 39 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the
responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Financial
Accounting Board (FASB) who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial
statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to
the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the
information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other
knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any
assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an
opinion or provide any assurance.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates
and assumptions that could differ materially from actual results affecting the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues
and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company considers its accounting policies that are
most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions as critical accounting estimates, which are defined as
estimates that are both: i) important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and ii)
require the Company to exercise significant judgment. These estimates, by necessity, are based on assumptions about
numerous factors.
The Company reviews its critical accounting estimates and assumptions on a quarterly basis, including: the valuation of
the reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses; analysis of the recoverability of deferred income tax assets; and
valuation of the investment portfolio, including a review for other-than-temporary declines in estimated fair value and the
pricing of level 3 securities.
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
(b) Investments. The majority of the Company’s investments in fixed income securities and common stocks are
categorized as “held for trading” and are recorded at their estimated fair value based on quoted market prices (see Note 3).
Most investments in common stocks of affiliates are carried at the Company’s proportionate share of the equity of those
affiliates. Short-term investments, which are classified as “held for trading” and which have a maturity of one year or less
from the date of purchase, are carried at fair value. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include certificates of deposits totaling
$46.2m and $22.4m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Investments in limited partnerships, investment funds,
mortgage loans, collateral loans, affiliate loans, real estate and contingent considerations have been reported in other
invested assets. Other invested assets also include accounts relating to the Company’s unqualified benefit plans and certain
derivative securities, all of which are carried at fair value. The Company routinely evaluates the carrying value of its
investments in common stocks of affiliates and in partnerships and investment funds. In the case of limited partnerships and
investment funds, the carrying value is generally established based on the net valuation criteria as determined by the
managers of the investments. Such valuations could differ significantly from the values that would have been available had
markets existed for the securities. Investment transactions are recorded on their trade date, with balances pending
settlement reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as a component of other assets or other liabilities.
Investment income, which is reported net of applicable investment expenses, is recorded as earned. Realized
investment gains or losses are determined based on average cost. The Company records, in investment income, its
proportionate share of income or loss, including realized gains or losses, for those securities for which the equity method of
accounting is utilized, which include most common stocks of affiliates, limited partnerships and investment funds. Due to the
timing of when financial information is reported by equity investees and received by the Company, results attributable to
these investments are generally reported by the Company on a one month or one quarter lag. Unrealized appreciation and
depreciation related to trading securities is recorded as realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statements of
operations.
The net amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the Company’s available for sale investments, net of
applicable deferred income taxes, is reflected in shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income. A decline
in the fair value of an available for sale investment below its cost or amortized cost that is deemed other-than-temporary is
recorded as a realized investment loss in the consolidated statements of operations, resulting in a new cost or amortized cost
basis for the investment. Other-than-temporary declines in the carrying values of investments recorded in accordance with
the equity method of accounting are recorded in net investment income in the consolidated statements of operations.

(c) Revenue Recognition. Reinsurance assumed premiums written and related costs are based upon reports received
from ceding companies. When reinsurance assumed premiums written have not been reported by the ceding company they
are estimated, at the individual contract level, based on historical patterns and experience from the ceding company and
judgment of the Company. Subsequent adjustments to premiums written, based on actual results or revised estimates from
the ceding company, are recorded in the period in which they become known. Reinsurance assumed premiums written
related to proportional treaty business are established on a basis that is consistent with the coverage periods under the terms
of the underlying insurance contracts. Reinsurance assumed premiums written related to excess of loss and facultative
reinsurance business are recorded over the coverage term of the contracts, which is generally one year. Unearned premium
reserves are established for the portion of reinsurance assumed premiums written that are to be recognized over the
remaining contract period. Unearned premium reserves related to proportional treaty contracts are computed based on
reports received from ceding companies, which show premiums written but not yet earned. Premium adjustments made over
the life of the contract are recognized as earned premiums based on the applicable contract period. Insurance premiums
written are based upon the effective date of the underlying policy and are generally earned on a pro rata basis over the policy
period, which is usually one year. A reserve for uncollectible premiums is established when deemed necessary. The Company
has established a reserve for potentially uncollectible premium receivable balances of $3.8m and $10.3m as of December 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively, which has been netted against premiums receivable.
The cost of reinsurance purchased by the Company (reinsurance premiums ceded) is reported as prepaid reinsurance
premiums and amortized over the contract period in proportion to the amount of reinsurance protection provided; unearned
premiums are included in recoverables from reinsurers on the consolidated balance sheets. The ultimate amount of
premiums, including adjustments, is recognized as premiums ceded, and amortized over the applicable contract period.
Premiums earned are reported net of reinsurance ceded premiums earned in the consolidated statements of operations.
Amounts paid by the Company for retroactive reinsurance that meet the conditions for reinsurance accounting are reported
as reinsurance receivables to the extent those amounts do not exceed the associated liabilities. If the liabilities exceed the
amounts paid, reinsurance receivables are increased to reflect the difference, and the resulting gain is deferred and amortized
over the estimated settlement period. If the amounts paid for retroactive reinsurance exceed the liabilities, the related
liabilities are increased or the reinsurance receivable is reduced, or both, at the time the reinsurance contract is effective,
and the excess is charged to net income. Changes in the estimated amount of liabilities relating to the underlying reinsured
contracts are recognized in net income in the period of the changes. Assumed and ceded reinstatement premiums represent
additional premiums related to reinsurance coverages, principally catastrophe excess of loss contracts, which are paid when
the incurred loss limits have been utilized under the reinsurance contract and such limits are reinstated. Premiums written
and earned premiums related to a loss event are estimated and accrued as earned. The accrual is adjusted based upon any
change to the ultimate losses incurred under the contract.
Leasing revenue is generally recognized ratably over the term of the leases. All of the Company’s leasing revenue is
generated from operating leases. Assets held for leases consist of land and buildings with estimated useful lives of 30 to 39
years and are valued at $279.6m.
(d) Deferred Acquisition Costs. Acquisition costs, which are reported net of costs recovered under ceded contracts,
consist of commissions and brokerage expenses incurred on insurance and reinsurance business written, and premium taxes
on direct insurance written, and are deferred and amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned.
Commission adjustments are accrued based on changes in premiums and losses recorded by the Company in the period in
which they become known. Deferred acquisition costs are limited to their estimated realizable value based on the related
unearned premium, which considers anticipated losses and loss adjustment expenses and estimated remaining costs of
servicing the business, all based on historical experience. The realizable value of the Company’s deferred acquisition costs is
determined without consideration of investment income.
Included in acquisition costs in the consolidated statements of operations are amortized deferred acquisition costs of
$1,105.5m and $769.8m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(e) Goodwill and Intangible Assets. The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets as required by GAAP. A
purchase price paid that is in excess of net assets arising from a business combination is recorded as an asset (“goodwill”)
and is not amortized. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset. Intangible
assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Goodwill and intangible assets are analyzed for impairment on an annual
basis to determine if the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the goodwill or intangible asset is impaired, it is written
down to its realizable value with a corresponding expense reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. For the
years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company did not impair any goodwill or intangible assets.
The following table reflects the carrying amount of goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible assets
with finite lives as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

f) Unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses. Unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses represent reserves for the
estimated amounts that the Company is obligated to pay for reported and unreported claims and related loss adjustment
expenses incurred under its contracts of insurance and reinsurance. The estimates are based on assumptions related to the
ultimate cost to settle such claims. The inherent uncertainties of estimating reserves are greater for reinsurance contracts
than for direct insurance policies due to the diversity of development patterns among different types of reinsurance contracts
and the necessary reliance on ceding companies for information regarding reported claims. As a result, there can be no
assurance that the ultimate liability will not exceed amounts reserved, with a resulting adverse effect on the Company.
The reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are based on the Company’s evaluations of reported
claims and individual case estimates received from ceding companies for reinsurance business or the estimates advised by
the Company’s claims adjusters for insurance business. The Company utilizes generally accepted actuarial methodologies to
determine reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses based on historical experience and other estimates. The reserves
are reviewed continually during the year and changes in estimates for losses and loss adjustment expenses are reflected as
expenses in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that the changes are identified. Reinsurance recoverables
on unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are reported as assets. A reserve for uncollectible reinsurance recoverables
is established based on an evaluation of each reinsurer or retrocessionaire and historical experience. The Company uses
tabular reserving for workers’ compensation indemnity loss reserves, which are considered to be fixed and determinable,
and discounts such reserves using an interest rate of 3.5% and the Life Table for Total Population: United States, 2009.

(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
(g) Deposit Assets and Liabilities. The Company may enter into assumed and ceded reinsurance contracts that contain
certain loss limiting provisions and, as a result, do not meet the risk transfer provisions of GAAP. These contracts are deemed
as either transferring only significant timing risk or only significant underwriting risk or transferring neither significant timing
nor underwriting risk and are accounted for using the deposit accounting method, under which revenues and expenses from
reinsurance contracts are not recognized as written premium and incurred losses. Instead, the profits or losses from these
contracts are recognized net, as other income or other expense, over the contract or contractual settlement periods.
For such contracts, the Company initially records the amount of consideration paid as a deposit asset or received as a
deposit liability. Revenue or expense is recognized over the term of the contract, with any deferred amount recorded as a
component of assets or liabilities until such time it is earned. The ultimate asset or liability under these contracts is estimated,
and the asset or liability initially established, which represents the consideration transferred, is increased or decreased over
the term of the contract. The change during the period is recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations,
with increases and decreases in the ultimate asset or liability shown in other expense, net. As of December 31, 2022 and
2021, the Company had reflected $2.1m and $1.6m, for December 31, 2022 and 2021, in other assets and $0.0m and $0.2m,
for December 31, 2022 and 2021, in other liabilities, related to deposit contracts. In cases where cedants retain the
consideration on a funds held basis, the Company records those assets in other assets, and records the related investment
income on the assets in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as investment income.
(h) Income Taxes. The Company records deferred income taxes to provide for the net tax effect of temporary
differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and their
tax bases. Such differences relate principally to deferred acquisition costs, unearned premiums, unpaid losses and loss
adjustment expenses, investments and tax credits. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when the
Company believes it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of deferred taxes will not be realized. As of December 31,
2021, the Company had determined that it is more likely than not that its foreign tax credit carryovers (“FTC”) would not be
utilized prior to expiration and a valuation allowance of $39.1m was recorded against the FTC deferred tax asset. Due to
increased foreign sourced income during 2022 and the expectation that such income would continue in future years, this
allowance was released in 2022. The Company has elected to recognize accrued interest and penalties associated with
uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision.
(i) Derivatives. The Company utilizes derivative instruments to manage against potential adverse changes in the value
of its assets and liabilities. Derivatives include total return swaps, interest rate swaps, forward currency contracts, U.S.
Treasury bond forward contracts, CPI-linked derivative contracts, credit default swaps, call options, put options, warrants and
other equity and credit derivatives. In addition, the Company holds options on certain securities within its fixed income
portfolio that allow the Company to extend the maturity date on fixed income securities or convert fixed income securities
to equity securities. The Company categorizes these investments as trading securities, and, except as noted below with
respect to certain Crop-related products and derivative instruments purchased and sold to hedge the Company's exposure
to such Crop-related products, changes in fair value are recorded as realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated
statements of operations. All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance
sheets and are measured at their fair value. Gains or losses from changes in the derivative values are reported based on how
the derivative is used and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. Except as noted below, for derivative instruments that
do not qualify for hedge accounting, changes in fair value are included in realized investment gains and losses in the
consolidated statements of operations. Margin balances required by counterparties in support of derivative positions are
included in fixed income securities and short-term investments.
The Company has accounted for certain U.S. Crop-related products that do not qualify as insurance contracts and
related reinsurance on such contracts as derivative instruments, reflecting the fair value of such instruments as either other
assets or other liabilities in its consolidated balance sheet, depending upon the position of each instrument as of each
reporting date. The Company has hedged its net exposure to losses from these contracts using put options and collars
acquired at or near the initial issuance date of the contracts, reflecting the fair value of such instruments as either other
assets or other liabilities in its consolidated balance sheet, depending upon the position of such hedging instruments as of
each reporting date. Changes in fair value for both the hedged contracts and the hedging instruments are reflected in loss
and loss adjustment expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
(j) Foreign Currency. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses resulting from a change in exchange rates between
the currency in which a transaction is denominated, or the original currency, and the functional currency are reflected in the
consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur. The Company translates the financial statements of
its foreign subsidiaries and branches that have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars by translating
balance sheet accounts at the balance sheet date exchange rate and income statement accounts at the rate at which the
12

(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
transaction occurs or the average exchange rate for each quarter. Translation gains or losses are recorded, net of deferred
income taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
The following table presents the foreign exchange effects, net of the effects of foreign currency forward contracts
purchased as an economic hedge against foreign exchange rate volatility and of tax, on specific line items in the Company’s

(k) Stock-Based Compensation Plans. The Company reflects awards of restricted common stock of Fairfax to employees
as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital when the shares are purchased. The award value is amortized through
compensation expense over the related vesting periods.
(l) Claims Payments. Payments of claims by the Company, as reinsurer, to a broker on behalf of a reinsured company
are recorded in the Company’s financial statements as paid losses at the time the cash is disbursed and are treated as paid
to the reinsured. Premiums due to the Company from the reinsured are recorded as receivables from the reinsured until the
cash is received by the Company, either directly from the reinsured or from the broker.
(m) Funds Held Balances. “Funds held under reinsurance contracts” represents amounts due to reinsurers arising from
the Company’s receipt of a deposit from a reinsurer, or the withholding of a portion of the premiums due, in accordance with
contractual terms, as a guarantee that the reinsurer will meet its loss and other obligations. Interest generally accrues on
withheld funds in accordance with contract terms. “Funds held by reinsured” represents amount due from a ceding company
that withholds, in accordance with the contractual terms, a portion of the premium due the Company as a guarantee that
the Company will meet its loss and other obligations.
(n) Fixed Assets. Fixed assets, with a net book value of $110.9m and $106.2m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, are recorded at amortized cost and are included in other assets. Depreciation and amortization are generally
computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
Leasehold improvements
Electronic data processing equipment and furniture
Personal computers and software
10 years or term of lease, if shorter
5 years
3 years
Depreciation and amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $30.2m and $27.5m,
respectively.

(o) Contingent Liabilities. Amounts are accrued for the resolution of claims that have either been asserted or are
deemed probable of assertion if, in the opinion of the Company, it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the
amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. In many cases it is not possible to determine whether a liability has been
incurred or to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until years after the contingency arises, in which
case no accrual is made until that time. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, no contingent liabilities have been recorded (see
Note 11).
(p) Recent Accounting Pronouncements. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) is the organization
responsible for establishing and improving GAAP.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” which provides for the recognition
and measurement at the reporting date of all expected credit losses for financial assets that are not accounted for at fair
value through net income, including investments in available-for-sale debt securities and loans, premiums receivable and
reinsurance recoverable. The updated guidance amends the current other-than-temporary impairment model for available-
for-sale debt securities by requiring the recognition of impairments relating to credit losses through an allowance account
and limits the amount of credit loss to the difference between a security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value. This guidance
also applies a new current expected credit loss model for determining credit-related impairments for financial instruments
measured at amortized cost. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, which deferred the effective date of ASU
2016-13 to 2023 (with early adoption permitted), and ASU 2019-11, which amended and clarified certain guidance contained
in ASU 2016-13. The Company evaluated the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statement and
determined the impact to be insignificant.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” ASU 2019-12 provides
the simplification of existing guidance for income taxes, including the removal of certain exceptions related to the recognition
of deferred tax liabilities on foreign subsidiaries. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 effective in 2022 as required; the
adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
The Company has determined that all recently issued guidance and pronouncements, other than those directly
referenced above, are either not applicable or are immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
(q) Equity Method Investments Valuation and Changes Misstatement. The Company has concluded that, as a result of
the misapplication of accounting guidance for the accounting of equity method investments, the carrying value and the
changes in value related to certain of the Company's investments were misstated as presented in its financial statements for
2021.
The effect of the misstatements were such that December 31, 2021 common stocks, at equity, were understated by
$53.7m, shareholders' equity was understated by $42.4 million (including the overstatement of accumulated other
comprehensive loss net of deferred income taxes by $52.1m and retained earnings by $9.7m), deferred tax assets were
overstated by $11.3m, net income was overstated by $10.5m (net of tax) and other comprehensive income was understated
by $7.0m. These misstatements were corrected in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2022.
The Company performed both a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the materiality of the adjustments and
concluded that the effects were not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations within the 2021
annual consolidated financial statements or for the 2022 annual consolidated financial statements in which they were
adjusted.
(r) Subsequent Events. The Company has evaluated the significance of events occurring subsequent to December 31,
2022 with respect to disclosing the nature and expected impact of such events as of April 4, 2023, the date these
consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

3. Fair Value Measurements
The Company accounts for a significant portion of its financial instruments at fair value as required by GAAP.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are measured and classified in a
three-level hierarchy for disclosure purposes based on the observability of inputs available in the marketplace used to
measure fair values. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). When the inputs used to measure fair value fall
within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Gains and losses for assets and liabilities
categorized within the Level 3 table below, therefore, may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both
observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3). Financial assets and liabilities recorded in the
consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1 financial instruments are financial assets and liabilities for which the values are based on unadjusted quoted
prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access. Market price data
generally is obtained from exchange markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for such instruments. The
majority of the Company’s Level 1 investments are common stocks that are actively traded in a public market and short-term
investments and cash equivalents, for which the cost basis approximates fair value.
Level 2 financial instruments are financial assets and liabilities for which the values are based on quoted prices in
markets that are not active, or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of
the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include the following:
a)
b)
c)
d)
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets;
Pricing models, the inputs for which are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Pricing models, the inputs for which are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data
through correlation or other means, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 2 include government and
corporate fixed income securities, which are priced using publicly traded over-the-counter prices and broker-dealer quotes.
Observable inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads and bids are available for
these investments. Also included in Level 2 are inactively traded convertible corporate debentures that are valued using a
pricing model that includes observable inputs such as credit spreads and discount rates in the calculation.
Level 3 financial instruments are financial assets and liabilities for which the values are based on prices or valuation
techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These
measurements include circumstances in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases,
the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the
fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant
to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Therefore, these inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the
methodology and valuation techniques that a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, no securities were transferred into or out of Level 3.
During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company purchased $262.8m and $142.7m, respectively, of
investments that are classified as Level 3. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company held $586.6m and $571.9m,
respectively, of investments that are classified as Level 3. Level 3 investments include CPI-linked derivative contracts, and
certain loans, bonds, preferred stocks and common stocks.

ODYSSEY GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
A review of fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of
valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Reclassifications impacting Level 3 of
the fair value hierarchy are generally reported as transfers in or out of the Level 3 category as of the beginning of the period
in which the reclassifications occur. The Company has determined, after carefully considering the impact of recent economic
conditions and liquidity in the credit markets on the Company’s portfolio, that it should not re-classify any of its investments
from Level 1 or Level 2 to Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. There were no transfers of securities
between Level 1 and Level 2 during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company is responsible for determining the fair value of its investment portfolio by utilizing market driven fair
value measurements obtained from active markets, where available, by considering other observable and unobservable
inputs and by employing valuation techniques that make use of current market data. For the majority of the Company’s
investment portfolio, the Company uses quoted prices and other information from independent pricing sources to determine
fair values.
The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

In accordance with ASU 2015-17, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure for Investments in Certain Entities
That Calculate Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per Share (or Its Equivalent),” investments that are measured at fair value using the
NAV per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient, have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. As of December
31, 2022 and 2021, $1,071.2m and $1,108.0m, respectively, of investments reported as equity securities and other invested
assets, based upon NAV, are not included within the fair value hierarchy tables.

Fair Value Measurements on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company measures the fair value of certain assets on a non-recurring basis, generally quarterly, annually or when
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. These assets may
include equity-method investments, mortgage loans and investments in real estate. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the
Company did not carry any equity method investments, mortgage loans, or investments in real estate at fair value.
The Company purchases investments in mortgage loans in the normal course of its business. The carrying value of
mortgage loans are at amortized cost, which approximates their fair value, was $740.7m and $569.9m at December 31, 2022
and 2021, respectively. Mortgage loans are considered to be Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. Mortgage loans are
valued using the market approach and discounted cash flow method. By increasing (decreasing) the credit spreads applied at
December 31, 2022 by 100 basis points, the fair value of the mortgage loans would not change significantly primarily due to
the short term nature of these instruments.
Fair Value Option
The fair value option (“FVO”) allows companies to irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent
measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities for which
the election is made are recognized in net income as they occur. The FVO election is permitted on an instrument-by-
instrument basis at initial recognition of an asset or liability or upon the occurrence of an event that gives rise to a new basis
of accounting for that instrument.
The Company owns Classes A, C, E, G, H, I, J, K and Q common shares of HWIC Asia Fund (“HWIC Asia”), which is 100%
owned by Fairfax and of which the Company owns 34.5% as of December 31, 2022. At the time of the purchase of each class
of shares, the Company elected the FVO for these investments, as HWIC Asia is a multi-class investment company that reports
its investments at fair value and provides a NAV on a monthly basis.
The Company owns shares of HWIC QIAIF Value Opportunities Fund ("HWIC VOF"), shares in HWIC QIAIF Property Fund
I ("HWIC PFI") and shares in HWIC QIAIF Property Fund II (“HWIC PF2”), which are each 100% owned by Fairfax and of which
the Company owns 2.8%, 24.1% and 29.8%, respectively. At the time of purchase of the HWIC VOF and the HWIC PFI
investments, the Company elected the FVO for these investments, as they are investment companies that report investments
at fair value and provide a NAV on a monthly basis.
The carrying values of the Company’s investment in the various HWIC Asia, HWIC VOF and HWIC PFI and HWIC PF2
common share issues as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, which are included in common stocks at fair value on the balance

the issuer elects not to exercise its call option. Total securities subject to call options represent approximately 9.9% of the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its investment portfolio classified as available for sale for declines in value
and specifically evaluates securities with fair values that have declined to less than 80% of their cost or amortized cost at the
time of review. Declines in the fair value of investments that are determined to be temporary are recorded as unrealized
depreciation, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income. If the Company determines that a decline relating to
credit issues is “other-than-temporary,” the cost or amortized cost of the investment will be written down to the fair value,
and a realized loss will be recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. If the Company determines
that a decline related to other factors (e.g., interest rates or market conditions) is “other-than-temporary,” the cost or
amortized cost of the investment will be written down to the fair value within other comprehensive income.
In assessing the value of the Company’s debt securities that are classified as available for sale, and equity securities
that are carried at equity, and possible impairments of such securities, the Company reviews (i) the issuer’s current financial
position and disclosures related thereto, (ii) general and specific market and industry developments, (iii) the timely payment
by the issuer of its principal, interest and other obligations, (iv) the outlook and expected financial performance of the issuer,
(v) current and historical valuation parameters for the issuer and similar companies, (vi) relevant forecasts, analyses and
recommendations by research analysts, rating agencies and investment advisors, and (vii) other information the Company
may consider relevant. Generally, a change in the market or interest rate environment would not, of itself, result in an
impairment of an investment. In addition, the Company considers its ability and intent to hold the security to recovery when
evaluating possible impairments.
The facts and circumstances involved in making a decision regarding an other-than-temporary impairment are those
that exist at that time. Should the facts and circumstances change such that an other-than-temporary impairment is
considered appropriate, the Company will recognize the impairment by reducing the cost, amortized cost or carrying value
of the investment to its fair value and recording the loss in its consolidated statements of operations. Upon the disposition
of a security where an “other-than-temporary” impairment has been taken, the Company will record a gain or loss based on
the adjusted cost or carrying value of the investment.
The Company did not have any fixed income securities at fair value classified as available for sale that were in an
unrealized depreciation position as of December 31, 2022 or 2021, respectively.

The Company’s investment funds and partnership investments may be subject to restrictions on redemptions or sales,
which are determined by the governing documents thereof, and may limit the Company’s ability to liquidate these

December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized net investment expense of $10.3m and $0.1m, respectively, from its
investment funds and partnership investments. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized
net realized investment gains of $16.7m and $255.4m, respectively, from its investment funds and partnerships that are held

The Company held long position common stock total return swaps, with a total notional value of $81.0m and $64.7m
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as replications of investments in publicly-listed common stocks. The
common stock total return swaps, which are carried at fair value, are recorded in other invested assets or other liabilities
based on the positive or negative value of the underlying contracts as of the financial statement date. Changes in the fair
value of common stock total return swaps are recorded as realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statements
of operations in the period in which they occur.
To reduce its exposure to interest rate risk, the Company holds forward contracts to sell long dated U.S. Treasury bonds.
These contracts have an average term to maturity of less than one year and may be renewed at market rates. The U.S.
Treasury bond forward contracts are recorded at fair value in other invested assets or in other liabilities based on the positive
or negative value of the underlying contracts as of the financial statement date, with the related changes in fair value
recognized as realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they
occur.
As an economic hedge against the potential adverse impact on the Company of decreasing price levels in the economy,
the Company has purchased derivative contracts referenced to consumer price indices (“CPI”) in various geographic regions
in which the Company operates. These contracts had a remaining average life of 0.8 and 1.8 years as of December 31, 2022
and 2021, respectively. As the remaining life of a contract declines, the fair value of the contract (excluding the impact of CPI
changes) will generally decline. The initial premium paid for the contracts is recorded as a derivative asset and subsequently
adjusted for changes in the unrealized fair value of the contracts at each balance sheet date. Changes in the unrealized fair
value of the contracts are recorded as realized gains or losses on investments in the Company’s consolidated statements of
operations with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying value of the derivative asset. In the event of a sale, expiration
or early settlement of one of the Company’s CPI-linked derivative contracts, the Company would receive the fair value of that
contract on the date of the transaction. The Company’s maximum potential cash loss is limited to the premiums already paid
to enter into the derivative contracts.

The Company has entered into forward currency contracts to manage its foreign currency exchange rate risk on a macro
basis. Under a forward currency contract, the Company and the counterparty are obligated to purchase or sell an underlying
currency at a specified price and time. Forward currency contracts are recorded at fair value in other invested assets or other
liabilities based on the positive or negative value of the underlying contracts as of the financial statement date, with the
related changes in fair value recognized as realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations
in the period in which they occur.
The Company had investments in call options, which are contracts that grant the holder the right (but not the
obligation) to purchase a financial instrument at a specified price within a specific time period. Call options, which are included
in other invested assets, are recorded at fair value, with changes in the fair value recognized as realized investment gains or
losses in the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which they occur.
The Company has investments in warrants, which are contracts that grant the holder the right (but not the obligation)
to purchase an underlying financial instrument at a given price and time or at a series of prices and times. Warrants, which
were included in other invested assets, are recorded at fair value, with the related changes in fair value recognized as realized
investment gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur.
The Company had investments in written put options, which are contracts that grant the holder the right (but not the
obligation) to purchase a financial instrument at a specified price within a specific time period. Written put options, which
were included in other liabilities, are recorded at fair value, with the changes in the fair value recognized as realized gains or
losses in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur.
The Company had investments in put options, which are contracts that grant the holder the right (but not the
obligation) to sell a financial instrument at a specified price within a specific time period. Put options, which were included in
other invested assets, are recorded at fair value, with the changes in the fair value recognized as realized gains or losses in
the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which they occur.
Pursuant to the agreements governing various derivative contracts, the fair value of collateral deposited by the
Company with the contracts’ counterparties totaled $22.7m and $68.0m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively,
while the fair value of collateral deposited by various counterparties for the benefit of the Company was $30.3m and $24.4m
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Counterparties to the derivative instruments expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance. The
Company believes this risk is low, given the diversification of the placement of the contracts among various highly rated
counterparties. The credit risk exposure is reflected in the fair value of the derivative instruments.

6. Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
Estimates of reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, which relate to loss events that have occurred
on or before the balance sheet date, are contingent on many assumptions that may or may not occur in the future. The
estimates reflect assumptions regarding initial expectations of losses and patterns of loss reporting, both for claims with
higher frequency and lower severity as well as for claims with lower frequency and higher severity associated with individual
large loss events, such as earthquakes, windstorms, and floods. The eventual outcome of these loss events may be different
from the assumptions underlying the Company’s reserve estimates. When the business environment and loss trends diverge
from expected trends, the Company may have to adjust its reserves accordingly, potentially resulting in adverse or favorable
effects to the Company’s financial results. The Company believes that the recorded estimate represents the best estimate of
unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses based on the information available as of December 31, 2022. The estimate is
reviewed on a quarterly basis and the ultimate liability may be greater or less than the amounts provided, for which any
adjustments will be reflected in the periods in which they become known.
The Company’s estimate of ultimate loss is determined based on a review of the results of several commonly accepted
actuarial projection methodologies incorporating the quantitative and qualitative information described above. The specific
methodologies the Company utilizes in its loss reserve review process include, but may not be limited to (i) incurred and paid
loss development methods, (ii) incurred and paid Bornhuetter Ferguson (“BF”) methods and (iii) loss ratio methods. The
incurred and paid loss development methods utilize loss development patterns derived from historical loss emergence trends
31
ODYSSEY GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
usually based on cedant/insured claim information to determine ultimate loss. These methods assume that the ratio of losses
in one period to losses in an earlier period will remain constant in the future. Loss ratio methods multiply expected loss ratios,
derived from aggregated analyses of internally developed pricing trends, by earned premium to determine ultimate loss. The
incurred and paid BF methods are a blend of the loss development and loss ratio methods. These methods utilize both loss
development patterns, as well as expected loss ratios, to determine ultimate loss. When using the BF methods, the initial
treaty year ultimate loss is based predominantly on expected loss ratios. As loss experience matures, the estimate of ultimate
loss using this methodology is based predominantly on loss development patterns. The Company generally does not utilize
methodologies that are dependent on claim counts reported, claim counts settled or claim counts open. Due to the nature
of the Company’s business, this information is not routinely provided for every treaty/program. Consequently, actuarial
methods utilizing this information generally cannot be relied upon by the Company in its loss reserve estimation process. As
a result, for much of the Company’s business, the separate analysis of frequency and severity of loss activity underlying overall
loss emergence trends is not practical. Generally, the Company relies on BF and loss ratio methods for estimating ultimate
loss liabilities for more recent treaty years. These methodologies, at least in part, apply a loss ratio, determined from
aggregated analyses of internally developed pricing trends across reserve cells, to premium earned on that business.
Adjustments to premium estimates generate appropriate adjustments to ultimate loss estimates in the quarter in which they
occur, using the BF and loss ratio methods. To estimate losses for more mature treaty years, the Company generally relies on
the incurred loss development methodology, which does not rely on premium estimates. In addition, the Company may use
other methods to estimate liabilities for specific types of claims. For property catastrophe losses, the Company may utilize
vendor catastrophe models to estimate ultimate loss soon after a loss occurs, where loss information is not yet reported to
the Company from cedants/insureds. Incurred but not reported reserves are determined by subtracting the total of paid loss
and case reserves, including additional case reserves, from ultimate loss.
The Company completes comprehensive loss reserve reviews, which include a reassessment of loss development and
expected loss ratio assumptions, on an annual basis. The Company completed this year’s annual review in the fourth quarter
of 2022. The results of these reviews are reflected in the period in which they are completed. Quarterly, the Company
compares actual loss emergence to expectations established by the comprehensive loss reserve review process. In the event
that loss trends diverge from expected trends, the Company may have to adjust its reserves for losses and loss adjustment
expenses (“LAE”) accordingly. Any adjustments will be reflected in the periods in which they become known, potentially
resulting in adverse or favorable effects to our financial results. The Company believes that the recorded estimate represents
the best estimate of unpaid losses and LAE based on the information available at December 31, 2022. The Company’s most
significant assumptions underlying its estimate of losses and LAE reserves are as follows: (i) that historical loss emergence
trends are indicative of future loss development trends; (ii) that internally developed pricing trends provide a reasonable
basis for determining loss ratio expectations for recent underwriting years; and (iii) that no provision is made for extraordinary
future emergence of new classes of loss or types of loss that are not sufficiently represented in its historical database or that
are not yet quantifiable if not in its database.

Net incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses related to the current year were $3,950.6m and $3,100.9m for the
years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses for the
year ended December 31, 2022 was principally related to increased losses associated with premium growth. For the years
ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, current year property catastrophe losses were $451.4m and $446.0m, respectively. For
the year ended December 31, 2022, current year property catastrophe losses included $126.1m related to Hurricane Ian,
$85.0m related to France Hailstorms, $25.4m related to Windstorm Eunice and $18.4m related to South Africa Floods. For
the year ended December 31, 2021, current year property catastrophe losses included $137.9m related to Germany Flood
Bernd, $77.8m related to Hurricane Ida, $49.1m related to Texas Windstorm and $18.6m related to Storm Volker.
Net incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses related to prior years included reductions in loss estimates of $49.9m
and $120.1m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The reduction in prior years’ incurred losses
and loss adjustment expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 was principally attributable to decreased loss estimates
on property catastrophe losses. The reduction in prior years’ incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses for the year ended
December 31, 2021 was attributable to decreased loss estimates due to loss emergence lower than expectations in most
regions and lines of business. The decrease in the prior year reduction to incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2022 was principally related to U.S. Casualty Reinsurance and U.S. Casualty Insurance lines of
business.

ODYSSEY GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
Net paid losses and loss adjustment expenses related to the current year were $837.3m and $580.0m for the years
ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in current year paid losses and loss adjustment expenses for
the year ended December 31, 2022 was principally due increased payments on U.S. Property Insurance and U.S. Property
Reinsurance lines of business. The increases in paid losses and loss adjustment expenses for the year ended December 31,
2021 was principally due to increased payments on current year catastrophe losses.
The effects of exchange rate changes on net unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses resulted in decreases of
$152.1m and $109.5m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and were attributable to Non-U.S.
Reinsurance and Non-U.S. Insurance lines business.
Ceded unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses were $1,208.9m and $1,059.4m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively. The increase in ceded unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 was
principally attributable to U.S. Casualty Insurance business. The increase in ceded unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses
for the year ended December 31, 2021 was principally attributable to Insurance business, largely offset by reduction in ceded
property catastrophe reserves.
The Company uses tabular reserving for workers’ compensation indemnity loss reserves, which are considered to be
fixed and determinable, and discounts such reserves using an interest rate of 3.5%. Workers’ compensation indemnity loss
reserves have been discounted using the Life Table for Total Population: United States, 2009. Reserves reported at the
discounted value were $42.9m and $44.6m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount of case reserve
discount was $13.0m and $13.6m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The amount of incurred but not reported
reserve discount was $17.0m and $17.2m as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company is not materially exposed to asbestos and environmentally-related liabilities and does not establish a
specific reserve for such exposures.
7. Reinsurance and Retrocessions
The Company utilizes reinsurance and retrocessional agreements to reduce and spread the risk of loss on its insurance
and reinsurance business and to limit exposure to multiple claims arising from a single occurrence. The Company is subject
to accumulation risk with respect to catastrophic events involving multiple treaties, facultative certificates and insurance
policies. To protect against these risks, the Company purchases catastrophe excess of loss protection. The retention, the level
of capacity purchased, the geographical scope of the coverage and the costs vary from year to year. Additionally, the Company
purchases specific protections related to the insurance business underwritten in both the U.S. and abroad.
There is credit risk with respect to reinsurance, which would result in the Company recording a charge to earnings in
the event that such reinsuring companies are unable, at some later date, to meet their obligations under the reinsurance
agreements in force. Reinsurance recoverables are recorded as assets and a reserve for uncollectible reinsurance
recoverables is established based on the Company’s evaluation of each reinsurer’s or retrocessionaire’s ability to meet its
obligations under the agreements. Premiums written and earned are stated net of reinsurance ceded in the consolidated
statements of operations. Direct, reinsurance assumed, reinsurance ceded and net amounts for the years ended December
31, 2022 and 2021 follow:

$627.0m and $254.3m, reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses of $1,208.9m and $1,059.4m and prepaid reinsurance
premiums of $376.5m and $357.2m, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The reserve for uncollectible
reinsurance recoverable was $9.6m and $9.0m, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and has been netted against
recoverable from reinsurers in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s ten largest reinsurers represent 72.3% of its total reinsurance recoverables as of December 31, 2022.

1.7%, of reinsurance recoverables as of December 31, 2022, and the average balance is less than $2.9m. The Company held
total collateral of $231.9m as of December 31, 2022, representing 12.6% of total reinsurance recoverables. The following
table shows the total amount as of December 31, 2022 that is recoverable from each of the Company’s ten largest reinsurers

Each reinsurance contract between the Company and the reinsurer describes the losses that are covered under the
contract and terms upon which payments are to be made. The Company often has the ability to utilize collateral to settle
unpaid balances due under its reinsurance contracts when it determines that the reinsurer has not met its contractual
obligations. Letters of credit are for the sole benefit of the Company to support the obligations of the reinsurer, providing the
Company with the unconditional ability, in its sole discretion, to draw upon the letters of credit in support of any unpaid
amounts due under the relevant contracts. Cash and investments supporting funds withheld from reinsurers are included in
the Company’s invested assets. Funds withheld from reinsurers are typically used to automatically offset payments due to
the Company in accordance with the terms of the relevant reinsurance contracts. Amounts held under trust agreements are
typically comprised of cash and investment grade fixed income securities and are not included in the Company’s invested
assets. The ability of the Company to draw upon funds held under trust agreements to satisfy any unpaid amounts due under
the relevant reinsurance contracts is typically unconditional and at the sole discretion of the Company.

Pre-tax income generated in the United States was $19.9m, and $518.0m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. Foreign pre-tax income was $137.7m and $174.9m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively.
The Company has claimed the benefit of a foreign tax credit (“FTC”) in the tax years ended December 31, 2022 and
2021.
The Company is included in the United States tax group of Fairfax (US) Inc. (“Fairfax (US)”). The method of allocation
among the companies is subject to a written agreement. Tax payments are made to, or refunds received from, Fairfax (US) in
amounts equal to the amounts as if separate income tax returns were filed with federal taxing authorities.
The United States Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The Act included a
minimum base erosion and anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”) on certain payments to foreign affiliates and a US tax on foreign earnings
for certain global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"). The Company has evaluated the accounting policy election related
to the BEAT and GILTI provisions and has concluded both will be treated as period costs. As a result, no related deferred taxes
were recorded.
The effects of the Act related to loss reserve discounting included a special transition rule allowing for the changes to
loss reserve discounting as of December 31, 2017 to be spread ratably over 8 years. During 2019 the Internal Revenue Service
(“IRS”) issued final regulations and Revenue Procedure 2019-31 resulting in a $2.0m increase to the initial computation. The
Company will recognize the adjusted benefit of $11.4m ratably from years ending December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2025.
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things
implements a 15% alternative minimum tax ("CAMT") on book income of certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on
net stock repurchases. Both provisions are effective in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. Based upon
projected adjusted financial statement income for 2023, the Company (or the controlled group of corporations of which the
Company is a member) has determined that the average "adjusted financial statement income" is above the thresholds
required to perform the CAMT calculation for the 2023 tax year. The impact of the alternative minimum tax, if any, will vary
from year to year based on the relationship of the Company's financial statement income to the Company's taxable income.
The Company paid federal and foreign income taxes of $67.9m and $5.4m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and
2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a net current tax payable of $18.3m, which included $1.6m
payable to Fairfax (US) and a net payable of $16.7m to and from various foreign governments. As of December 31, 2021, the
Company had a net current tax receivable of $2.8m, which included $18.2m receivable from Fairfax (US) and a net payable
of $15.4m to and from various foreign jurisdictions. The Company files income tax returns with various federal, state and
foreign jurisdictions.

(in $ millions except per share amounts and as otherwise indicated)
The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for tax years prior to 2020 are closed. Effective for tax years 2019 and
prior, the Company participated in the IRS’s Compliance Assurance Program (“CAP”). Under CAP, the IRS begins their
examination of the tax year before the income tax return is filed. The goal of CAP is to expedite the exam process and reduce
the level of uncertainty regarding a taxpayer’s filing positions by examining significant transactions and events as they occur.
The IRS did not propose any material adjustments as part of the Company’s previous examinations. Effective for tax year 2020
and later, the IRS changed requirements for continued participation in CAP, the Company no longer participates in the
program, and will be subject to the normal IRS audit selection process. Income tax returns filed with various state and foreign
jurisdictions remain open to examination in accordance with individual statutes.
The Company has elected to recognize accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of
the income tax provision. The Company does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits and has not recognized any
accrued interest or penalties associated with uncertain tax positions.
For federal income tax return purposes, the Company has FTC carryovers of $9.9m, of which $9.9m expire in 2031.
When necessary, valuation allowances are established to reduce the deferred tax assets to amounts that are “more
likely than not” to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all available evidence
for each tax jurisdiction, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax
planning strategies. The Company assessed the realization of its FTC carryovers based on currently enacted U.S. and foreign
tax laws and determined that it is “more likely than not” that most of the FTC carryovers related to foreign branch income
will not be utilized prior to expiration. For the year ended December 31, 2022, a valuation allowance of $39.1m against the
FTC carryovers was released and is included in the Company’s 2022 effective tax rate reconciliation as change in valuation
allowance. The total valuation allowance of as of December 31, 2022 is $0. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
realizable, however, could change if future taxable income during the carryforward period differs from current estimates.
11. Commitments and Contingencies
(a)
Contingencies
The Company participates in Lloyd’s through its 100% ownership of the capital provider for Newline Syndicate (1218),
for which the Company directly or indirectly provides 100% of the capacity. The results of Newline Syndicate (1218) are
consolidated in the financial statements of the Company. In support of Newline Syndicate (1218)’s capacity at Lloyd’s, the
Company has pledged securities and cash with a fair value of $378.1m as of December 31, 2022 in a deposit trust account in
favor of the Society and Council of Lloyd’s. The securities may be substituted with other securities at the discretion of the
Company, subject to approval by Lloyd’s. The securities are carried at fair value and are included in investments and cash in
the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest earned on the securities is included in investment income. The pledge
of assets in support of Newline Syndicate (1218) provides the Company with the ability to participate in writing business
through Lloyd’s, which remains an important part of the Company’s business. The pledged assets effectively secure the
contingent obligations of Newline Syndicate (1218) should it not meet its obligations. The Company’s contingent liability to
the Society and Council of Lloyd’s is limited to the aggregate amount of the pledged assets. The Company has the ability to
remove funds at Lloyd’s annually, subject to certain minimum amounts required to support outstanding liabilities as
determined under risk-based capital models and approved by Lloyd’s. The funds used to support outstanding liabilities are
adjusted annually and the obligations of the Company to support these liabilities will continue until they are settled or the
liabilities are reinsured by a third party approved by Lloyd’s. The Company expects to continue to actively operate Newline
Syndicate (1218) and support its requirements at Lloyd’s, and the Company believes that Newline Syndicate (1218) maintains
sufficient liquidity and financial resources to support its ultimate liabilities, and the Company does not anticipate that the
pledged assets will be utilized.

ORC agreed to guarantee the performance of all the insurance and reinsurance contract obligations of Compagnie
Transcontinentale de Réassurance (“CTR”), a former subsidiary of Fairfax, in the event CTR became insolvent and CTR was
not otherwise indemnified under its guarantee agreement with a Fairfax affiliate. CTR was dissolved and its assets and
liabilities were assumed by subsidiaries of Fairfax that have the responsibility for the run-off of its liabilities. Fairfax has agreed
to indemnify ORC for all its obligations incurred under its guarantee. The Company’s potential exposure in connection with
this agreement stems from the remaining gross reserves relating to these liabilities, which are estimated to be $45.0m as of
December 31, 2022. The Company believes that the financial resources of the Fairfax subsidiaries that have assumed CTR’s
liabilities provide adequate protection to satisfy the obligations that are subject to this guarantee. The Company does not
expect to make payments under this guarantee and does not consider its potential exposure under this guarantee to be
material to its consolidated financial position.
ORC has agreed to guarantee the payment of all of the insurance contract obligations (the “Subject Contracts”),
whether incurred before or after the agreement, of Falcon Insurance Company (Hong Kong) Limited (“Falcon”), a subsidiary
of Fairfax Asia, in the event Falcon becomes insolvent. The guarantee by ORC was made to assist Falcon in writing business
through access to ORC’s financial strength ratings and capital resources. ORC is paid a fee for this guarantee of one quarter
of one percent of all gross premiums earned associated with the Subject Contracts on a quarterly basis. For each of the years
ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, Falcon paid $0.1m to ORC in connection with this guarantee. ORC’s potential exposure
in connection with this agreement is estimated to be $174.0m, based on Falcon’s loss reserves at December 31, 2022. Fairfax
has agreed to indemnify ORC for any obligation under this guarantee. The Company believes that the financial resources of
Falcon provide adequate protection to support its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company anticipates that
Falcon will meet all of its obligations in the normal course of business and does not expect to make any payments under this
guarantee. The Company does not consider its potential exposure under this guarantee to be material to its consolidated
financial position.
During 2015, in consideration for an appropriate fee, ORC agreed to guarantee the payment of certain obligations of
TIG with respect to a certain contract of reinsurance of asbestos, pollution and health hazard claims (the “APH contract”)
entered into by TIG with an unrelated third party. The guarantee was made to enable TIG to access ORC’s financial strength
ratings, subsidiary of Fairfax, and capital resources for securing the APH Contract. ORC’s maximum exposure in connection
with this guarantee is $350.0m. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s estimated exposure under the guarantee is $14.9m,
based on TIG’s loss reserves for the APH Contract at December 31, 2022. The Company i) believes that the financial resources
of TIG provide adequate protection to support is liabilities in the ordinary course of business; ii) anticipates that TIG will meet
all of its obligations in the normal course of business; and iii) does not expect to make any payments under this guarantee.
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved, from time to time, in ordinary litigation, arbitration proceedings and
regulatory assessments as part of the Company’s business operations. In the Company’s opinion, the outcome of these
actions, individually or collectively, is not likely to result in outcomes that would be material to the financial condition or
results of operations of the Company.

The Company’s subsidiaries have entered into investment management agreements with Fairfax and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Hamblin Watsa Investment Counsel Ltd. These agreements generally provide for an annual base fee, calculated
and paid quarterly based upon each subsidiary’s average invested assets for the preceding three months, and an incentive
fee, which is payable if realized gains on equity investments exceed certain benchmarks. These agreements may be
terminated by either party on 30 days’ notice. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, total fees, including
incentive fees, of $24.2m and $30.1m, respectively, are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Included in other expenses, net, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, are charitable contribution expenses
of $7.8m and $7.3m, respectively, primarily representing amounts to be funded by OGHI to the Odyssey Group Foundation,

The Pension Plan seeks to maximize the economic value of its investments by applying a long-term, value-oriented
approach to optimize the total investment returns of the Pension Plan’s invested assets. Assets are transferred and allocated
among various investment vehicles, when appropriate. The long-term rate of return assumption is based on this flexibility to
adjust to market conditions. The actual return on assets has historically been in line with the Company’s assumptions of
expected returns. The Company contributed $9.8m and $17.8m to the Pension Plan during the years ended December 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company currently expects to make a contribution to the Pension Plan of $7.8m during
2023.
The Company accounts for its Pension Plan assets at fair value as required by GAAP. The Company has categorized its
Pension Plan assets, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy,
using the three-level hierarchy approach described in Note 3.
Quoted market prices are used for determining the fair value of the Company’s Pension Plan assets. The majority of
these Pension Plan assets are common stocks and mutual funds that are actively traded in a public market. The Pension Plan’s
money market account, for which the cost basis approximates fair value, is also classified as a Level 1 investment. As of
December 31, 2022, a majority of the Pension Plan assets were categorized as Level 1 assets except for the investments
measured using NAV.
In accordance with ASU 2015-07, investments that are measured at fair value using NAV per share (or its equivalent)
as a practical expedient, have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, $31.0m and
$32.3m, respectively, of investments reported as equity securities are not included within the fair value hierarchy tables.

The Company’s Level 3 Pension Plan assets were valued by a third party, providing a net asset value, by using valuation
techniques that include unobservable inputs. Generally, hedge funds invest in securities that trade in active markets, and as
a result, their net asset values reflect their fair values. The Plan did not have Level 3 investments as of December 31, 2022
and 2021.
The following table provides a summary of the Plan’s investment that is measured at fair value using reported NAV per

The annual assumed rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered benefits (i.e., health care cost trend rate) is
assumed to be 6.84% in 2023, gradually decreasing to 4.00% in 2048 and remaining constant thereafter. The health care cost
trend rate assumption has a significant effect on the amounts reported. For example, increasing the assumed health care
cost trend rates by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by
$4.2m (10.8% of the benefit obligation as of December 31, 2022) and the service and interest cost components of net periodic
postretirement benefit costs by $0.2m for the year ended December 31, 2022. Decreasing the assumed health care cost trend
rates by one percentage point in each year would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the service
and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the year ended December 31, 2022 by $3.6m
and $0.2m, respectively.
Other Plans
The Company also maintains a defined contribution profit sharing plan for all eligible employees. Each year, the Board
of Directors may authorize payment of an amount equal to a percentage of each participant’s basic annual earnings based
on the results of the Company for that year. These amounts are credited to the employees’ accounts maintained by a third
party, which has contracted to provide benefits under the plan. No additional discretionary contributions were authorized
for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company maintains a qualified deferred compensation plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended. Employees may contribute up to 50% of base salary on a pre-tax basis, subject to annual maximum
contributions set by law ($22.5 thousand in 2023 plus an additional $7.5 thousand if an employee is age 50 or older). The
Company contributes an amount equal to 100% of each employee’s pre-tax contribution up to certain limits. The maximum
matching contribution is 4.0% of annual base salary, with certain government-mandated restrictions on contributions to
highly compensated employees. The Company also maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan to allow for
contributions in excess of qualified plan limitations. The Company’s contributions to both of these plans, which totaled $4.5m
and $3.7m for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are included primarily in other underwriting
expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
All employees in the United States hired on or after August 1, 2011 are eligible for an annual profit sharing contribution,
subject to the profit sharing plan limitations. The Company makes this contribution regardless of whether or not elective
deferrals were made during the year. The profit sharing contribution is paid each January and uses the prior year’s 401(k)
compensation (base pay, short-term disability earnings and any overtime earnings) to determine the actual contribution for
each employee. These profit sharing contributions are calculated as a percentage of earnings at the end of each year and
allocated to participant accounts in January of the following year, with contribution percentages based upon each employee’s
years of service as follows:
Years of Service
Less than or equal to 5 years
More than 5 years but less than or equal to 15
More than 15 years
The profit sharing contribution amounts vest based upon the following vesting schedule:

15. Stock-Based Compensation Plans
Fairfax Restricted Share Plan and Share Option Plan
In 1999, Fairfax established the Fairfax Financial 1999 Restricted Share Plan (the “Fairfax Restricted Share Plan”) and
the Share Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) (collectively, the “Fairfax Plans”), in which the Company participates. The Fairfax
Plans generally provide officers, key employees and directors who were employed by or provided services to the Company
with awards of restricted shares or stock options (with a grant price of zero) of Fairfax common stock (collectively, “Restricted
Share Awards”). The Restricted Share Awards generally vest over five years. The Company had 593,691 Restricted Share
Awards outstanding as of December 31, 2022.
The fair value of the Restricted Share Awards is estimated on the date of grant based on the market price of Fairfax’s
stock and is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the related vesting periods. The Company
purchases Fairfax common stock on the open market to cover the grant of a Restricted Share Award and reflects such
purchase as a reduction in the Company’s additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2022, there was $55.9m of
unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Restricted Share Awards granted from the Fairfax Plans that was netted
against additional paid-in capital, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average vesting period of
2.2 years. The total fair values of the Restricted Share Awards granted for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were
$29.6m and $27.6m, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the aggregate fair value of the Restricted Share Awards
outstanding was $284.5m. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized expense related to
the Fairfax Plans of $24.4m and $23.1m, respectively.

Under the terms of the Odyssey Re Holdings Corp. (Non-Qualified) 2010 Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “2010
ESPP”), eligible employees are given the election to purchase Fairfax common shares in an amount up to 10% of their annual
base salary. The Company matches these contributions by purchasing, on the employee’s behalf, a number of Fairfax’s
