NOTE 1 BUSINESS
On May 18, 2026, following shareholder approval, Kingsway Financial Services Inc. changed its name to Kingsway Corporation (the "Company" or "Kingsway") and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under a new ticker symbol, KWY, on May 19, 2026. Kingsway is a Delaware holding company with operating subsidiaries located in the United States and is the only publicly-traded US company employing the Search Fund model to acquire and build great businesses. The Company owns and operates a collection of high-quality B2B and B2C services companies that are asset-light, growing, and that have recurring revenues. Kingsway seeks to compound long-term shareholder value on a per share basis via its decentralized management model, its talented team of operators, and its tax-advantaged corporate structure.
NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements of the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K ("2025 Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as certain variable interest entities as further described in Note 6, "Variable Interest Entities," to the consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are recorded in the accounting period in which they are determined.
The critical accounting estimates and assumptions in the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition; valuation of fixed maturity investments; impairment assessment of investments; valuation of limited liability investment, at fair value; valuation of deferred income taxes; accounting for business combinations; valuation and impairment assessment of intangible assets; goodwill recoverability; valuation of contingent consideration; fair value assumptions for subordinated debt obligations; fair value assumptions for subsidiary stock-based compensation awards; and valuation of redeemable noncontrolling interest.
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as reported in our 2025 Annual Report.
NOTE 4 RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
(a) Adoption of New Accounting Standards:
Effective January 1, 2026, the Company adopted ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets ("ASU 2025-05"), which amends the guidance on measuring expected credit losses using a probabilistic method and provides a practical expedient for all entities that simplifies the estimation of expected credit losses for current trade accounts receivable and contract assets arising from revenue transactions. The adoption of ASU 2025-05 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
(b) Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:
In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"), which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. For SEC registrants, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will monitor the removal of various requirements from the current regulations in order to determine when to adopt the related amendments, but does not anticipate the adoption of the new guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures; Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 requires new financial statement disclosures within the footnotes in tabular format, disaggregating information about prescribed categories underlying any relevant income statement expense caption. Qualitative disclosures about any remaining amounts in relevant expense line items must be provided. Separate disclosures of total selling expenses and an entity’s definition of those expenses are also required. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public companies with annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual period beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects the adoption of the standard to result in additional disaggregation of expense captions within its footnote disclosures.
| Kingsway Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) September 30, 2026 |
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"), to modernize the accounting guidance for the costs to develop software for internal use. ASU 2025-06 applies to costs incurred to develop or obtain software for internal use and amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods. Under ASU 2025-06, entities will commence capitalizing eligible costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the intended function. ASU 2025-06 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any interim period. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of the new guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were approximately
| • | the extent to which the fair value is less than amortized cost; | |
| • | conditions related to the security, industry, or geographic area; | |
| • | payment structure of the investment and the likelihood of the issuer’s ability to make contractual cashflows; | |
| • | defaults or other collectability concerns related to the issuer; | |

The Company determined that the unrealized losses on the fixed maturity investments were due to non-credit related factors at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The establishment of an impairment loss on an investment requires a number of judgments and estimates. Refer to the "Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition included in the 2025 Annual Report for further information regarding the Company's detailed analysis and factors considered in recording an impairment loss on an investment.

| Kingsway Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) September 30, 2026 |
Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually as of November 30, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In evaluating the recoverability of goodwill, the Company estimates the fair value of its reporting units and compares it to the carrying value. Although the Company believes its estimates of fair value are reasonable, actual financial results could differ from those estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimates. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting units, the amount of goodwill impairment charge, or both.

As further discussed in Note 5, "Acquisitions and Disposal," during the third quarter of 2026, the Company recorded intangible assets related to customer relationships and trade name related to the acquisition of RCC. The Company expects to complete its purchase price allocation within the next nine months. The estimates, allocations and calculations recorded at September 30, 2026 are subject to change as we obtain further information; therefore, the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may not agree with the estimates included in these consolidated financial statements. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company acquired intangible assets related to customer relationships and trade name related to a small acquisition.
As discussed in Note 5,"Acquisitions and Disposal," the Company disposed of Trinity on May 8, 2026.
The Company's intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized either based on the patterns in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be consumed or using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from
The trade name intangible assets have indefinite useful lives and are not amortized. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment annually as of November 30, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company may perform its impairment test for any indefinite-lived intangible asset through a qualitative assessment or elect to proceed directly to a quantitative impairment test, however, the Company may resume a qualitative assessment in any subsequent period if facts and circumstances permit.
At each quarter end of the first through third quarters of 2026 and 2025, the Company determined that certain trade names should be further examined under a quantitative approach due to actual revenue coming in lower than previous projections. Based upon these assessments, the Company recorded impairment charges as follows:
| • | $ | |
| • | $ |
The trade name fair values were estimated using the relief-from-royalty method. The significant unobservable inputs used in the relief-from-royalty method, which are Level 3 inputs, include a royalty rate and discount rate. The reduction in value is primarily due to higher discount rates and a reduction in projected revenue. Future impairments may be recorded if discount rates increase further, or if actual revenue falls short of current projections. The valuation of these assets is not dependent on the underlying profit or loss generated by the respective business. Therefore, even if a change in revenue does not have a significant impact on operating results, it could significantly impact the fair value of the trade name.

The various bank loans contain a number of covenants, including, but not limited to, a leverage ratio and a fixed charge ratio, all of which are as defined in and calculated pursuant to the respective bank loan agreements that, among other things, restrict the respective borrower’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make dividends and distributions, engage in mergers, acquisitions and consolidations, make certain payments and investments and dispose of certain assets.

(b) Lessor leases:
The Company enters into contracts with third-parties to lease equipment to its customers. In certain of these contracts, the Company has the option to purchase the equipment back from such third party at the end of the lease term with the end customer. In these cases, the Company determined that these contracts represent a lease, and the Company is a lessor under these contracts. The sum of the lease payments received by the Company exceeds the cost of the equipment. Therefore, these leases are determined to be sales-type leases. The Company receives the full lease payment for the equipment upfront when the equipment is delivered to the customer and installation is complete. Therefore, the Company does not record a receivable or interest income related to these leases. The Company recognizes all revenue and costs associated with the sales-type lease within revenue, and cost of services, respectively, upon delivery and installation of the equipment to the customer. For the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, total revenue recognized from sales-type leases was $

NOTE 13 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
Revenue from contracts with customers relates to the Kingsway Search Xcelerator and Extended Warranty segments and includes: business services revenue, healthcare services revenue, software license and support revenue, motor sales and repair service revenue, skilled trades repair and service revenue, vehicle service agreement fees, maintenance support service fees and warranty product commissions, based on terms of various agreements with consumers, businesses and credit unions. Customers either pay in full when business and healthcare services, software license and support, motor sales and skilled trades services are billed, or at the inception of a warranty contract or commission product sale, or on terms subject to the Company’s customary credit reviews.
The following table disaggregates revenues from contracts with customers by revenue type for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025:

| Kingsway Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) September 30, 2026 |
Vehicle service agreement fees include the fees collected to cover the costs of future automobile mechanical breakdown claims and the associated administration of those claims. Vehicle service agreement fees are earned over the duration of the vehicle service agreement contracts as the single performance obligation is satisfied. Vehicle service agreement fees are initially recorded as deferred service fees with revenues recognized over the term of the contract based on the proportion of expected claims to total overall claims to be incurred over the life of the contract. The Company believes this reasonably represents the transfer of services to the vehicle service contract holder over the warranty term. The Company compares the remaining deferred service fees balance to the estimated amount of expected future claims under the vehicle service agreement contracts and records an additional accrual if the deferred service fees balance is less than expected future claims costs.
In certain jurisdictions the Company is required to refund to a customer a pro-rata share of the vehicle service agreement fees if a customer cancels the agreement prior to the end of the term. Depending on the jurisdiction, the Company may be entitled to deduct from the refund a cancellation fee and/or amounts for claims incurred prior to cancellation. While refunds vary depending on the term and type of product offered, historically refunds have averaged
Maintenance support service fees include the service fees collected to administer equipment breakdown and maintenance support services and are earned as services are rendered.
Warranty product commissions include the commissions from the sale of warranty contracts for certain new and used heating, ventilation, air conditioning ("HVAC"), standby generator, commercial LED lighting and commercial refrigeration equipment. The Company acts as an agent on behalf of the third-party insurance companies that underwrite and guaranty these warranty contracts. The Company does not guaranty the performance underlying the warranty contracts it sells. Warranty product commissions are earned at the time of the warranty product sales.
Business services revenue includes the revenue from providing outsourced finance and human resources services and information technology managed services. The Company invoices for business services revenue based on contracted rates. Revenue is earned over time as services are provided to the customer.
Healthcare services revenue includes revenue from providing healthcare professional staffing services and outsourced cardiac telemetry services for general acute care, long-term acute care and inpatient rehabilitation hospitals. The Company invoices for healthcare services revenue based on contracted rates. Revenue is earned over time as services are provided to the customer.
Software license and support revenue includes revenue from the sale or rental of software products created exclusively to serve the management needs of all types of shared-ownership properties. Software licenses are on-premise at customer locations and considered fully functional when made available and delivered to the customer. As the customer can use and benefit from the license on its own, software licenses represent distinct performance obligations. Revenue is recognized upfront at the point in time when control is transferred, which is defined as the point in time when the customer can use and benefit from the license. The Company's software licenses are sold as term licenses, and the contracts include software support services, which are accounted for as separate performance obligations. Software support revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period as services are rendered. For certain SPI contracts, the transaction price of the software license is billed in installments, typically over a three to five year period. The Company allocates a portion of the consideration received from these arrangements to a financing component when it determines that a significant financing component exists. The financing component is subsequently recognized as interest income separate from software license and support fee revenue over the term of the arrangement with the customer. Pursuant to practical expedients afforded under ASC 606, the Company does not recognize a financing component for software license sales that have a term of one year or less.
Motor sales and repair service revenue include the service fees collected from the sale of new electric motors, in-shop repair and refurbishment of customer-owned electric motors, transformers, switchgear, ancillary parts, and on-site services for customers, including preventative maintenance, infrared scans, VLF cable testing, and vibration analysis for various types of electrical equipment. Motor sales and repair service revenue is earned as motors are delivered to the customer or as repair services are provided to the customer.
Skilled trades repair and service revenue include the service fees collected to administer plumbing repairs and maintenance support services and are earned over time as services are provided to the customer.
The Company's revenue recognition policies are further described in Note 2(q), "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Revenue recognition," to the consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report.

Deferred contract costs
Deferred contract costs represent the deferral of incremental costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer. Incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer primarily include sales commissions. The Company capitalizes costs incurred to fulfill a contract if the costs are identifiable, generate or enhance resources used to satisfy future performance obligations and are expected to be recovered. Costs to fulfill a contract include labor costs for set-up activities directly related to the acquisition of vehicle service agreements. Contract costs are deferred and amortized over the expected customer relationship period consistent with the pattern in which the related revenues are earned. Amortization of incremental costs to obtain a contract and costs to fulfill a contract with a customer are recorded in cost of services in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

The Company maintains a valuation allowance for its gross deferred tax assets at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company's operations have generated substantial operating losses in prior years. These losses can be available to reduce income taxes that might otherwise be incurred on future taxable income; however, it is uncertain whether the Company will generate the taxable income necessary to utilize these losses or other reversing temporary differences. This uncertainty has caused management to place a valuation allowance on its September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 net deferred tax asset, excluding the deferred income tax liability amounts set forth in the paragraph below which were determined to not reverse and offset existing deferred tax assets.

| (a) | Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options and unvested restricted stock awards, calculated using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Because the Company is reporting a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, all potentially dilutive securities outstanding were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share since their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. |
Basic loss per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated using weighted-average diluted shares. Weighted-average diluted shares is calculated by adding the effect of potentially dilutive securities to weighted-average common shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted loss per share computation in loss periods and when the applicable exercise price is greater than the market price on the period end date as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option on the date of grant. The fair value of grants and the related assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were as follows:

| Risk-free interest rate | % | |||
| Dividend yield | ||||
| Expected volatility | % | |||
| Expected term (in years) | ||||
The risk-free rate was determined based on U.S. treasury yields that most closely approximated the options' expected term. The dividend yield was determined based on the Company's dividend paying history. The expected volatility was calculated based on the weekly closing price of the Company's common stock over the expected life of the options. The expected term was determined by estimating the cost of equity for the Company to determine when the option would be at-the-money, and then adding that amount to the average time to vest.

NOTE 21 SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The Company reports segment information based on the "management" approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as a source of the Company’s reportable operating segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker is its President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company conducts its business through the following reportable segments: Kingsway Search Xcelerator and Extended Warranty.
Kingsway Search Xcelerator Segment
Kingsway Search Xcelerator includes the Company's subsidiaries CSuite, Ravix, SNS, SPI, DDI, Image Solutions, Roundhouse, Bud's Plumbing, Advanced Plumbing and Southside Plumbing (collectively, "KSX").
CSuite is a professional services firm that provides experienced chief financial officer and other finance professionals to its clients through a variety of flexible offerings. These offerings include project, fractional and interim staffing of senior finance professionals, CFO mentoring, board advisory services, and executive search services for permanent placements for its clients throughout the United States.
Ravix provides outsourced financial services and human resources consulting to its clients on a fractional basis for both projects with definitive endpoints and ongoing engagements of indeterminate length for short or long duration engagements for customers throughout the United States.

Extended Warranty Segment
Extended Warranty includes the following subsidiaries of the Company: IWS, Geminus, PWI and Trinity (collectively, "Extended Warranty"). As discussed in Note 5, "Acquisitions and Disposal," the Company sold Trinity on May 8, 2026. The earnings of Trinity are included in the unaudited interim consolidated statements of operations and the segment disclosures through the date of sale.
IWS is a licensed motor vehicle service agreement company and is a provider of after-market vehicle protection services distributed by credit unions in

Results for the Company's reportable segments are based on the Company's internal financial reporting systems and are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements. The Company uses operating income as the measure of profit or loss for our segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker uses segment operating income to allocate resources in the annual budget and forecasting process and considers actual versus plan variances in assessing the performance of each segment. The chief operating decision maker also uses segment operating income as an input to the overall compensation measures for segment management under the Company's incentive compensation plans. From time to time we may report the impact of certain events, gains, losses or other charges related to our segments outside of segment operating income. Segment assets are not regularly reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker and, therefore, are not included in the segment disclosures below.
Among other items, the current U.S. conflict with Iran, the degree and pace of inflation and interest rate changes may have impacts on our business and tariffs - or retaliatory responses to such tariffs - may impact the Company’s operating income. The potential impact of current macroeconomic uncertainties on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is subject to change and continues to depend on the extent and duration of these uncertainties.
The operating income by reportable segment in the following table is before income taxes and includes revenues and direct segment costs. The significant expense categories and amounts by segment align with the segment level information that is regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker.
Total segment operating income reconciled to the consolidated net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was as follows:

NOTE 22 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best evidenced by quoted bid or ask price, as appropriate, in an active market. Where bid or ask prices are not available, such as in an illiquid or inactive market, the closing price of the most recent transaction of that instrument subject to appropriate adjustments as required is used. Where quoted market prices are not available, the quoted prices of similar financial instruments or valuation models with observable market-based inputs are used to estimate the fair value. These valuation models may use multiple observable market inputs, including observable interest rates, foreign-exchange rates, index levels, credit spreads, equity prices, counterparty credit quality, corresponding market volatility levels and option volatilities. Minimal management judgment is required for fair values calculated using quoted market prices or observable market inputs for models. Greater subjectivity is required when making valuation adjustments for financial instruments in inactive markets or when using models where observable parameters do not exist. Also, the calculation of estimated fair value is based on market conditions at a specific point in time and may not be reflective of future fair values. For the Company's financial instruments carried at cost or amortized cost, the book value is not adjusted to reflect increases or decreases in fair value due to market fluctuations, including those due to interest rate changes, as it is the Company's intention to hold them until there is a recovery of fair value, which may be to maturity.
The Company employs a fair value hierarchy to categorize the inputs it uses in valuation techniques to measure the fair value. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1:
| • | Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. |
| • | Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. |
| • | Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are not observable. |
The Company classifies its investments in fixed maturities as available-for-sale and reports these investments at fair value. The Company's limited liability investment, at fair value, subordinated debt, contingent consideration and seller phantom equity awards are measured and reported at fair value.
Fixed maturities - Fair values of fixed maturities for which no active market exists are derived from quoted market prices of similar instruments or other third-party evidence. All classes of the Company’s fixed maturities, primarily consisting of investments in U.S. Treasury bills and government bonds; obligations of states, municipalities and political subdivisions; mortgage-backed securities; and corporate securities, are classified as Level 2. Level 2 is applied to valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are inactive; or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
| KINGSWAY CORPORATION September 30, 2026 |
The Company engages a third-party vendor who utilizes third-party pricing sources and primarily employs a market approach to determine the fair values of our fixed maturities. The market approach includes primarily obtaining prices from independent third-party pricing services as well as, to a lesser extent, quotes from broker-dealers. Our third-party vendor also monitors market indicators, as well as industry and economic events, to ensure pricing is appropriate. All classes of our fixed maturities are valued using this technique. The Company has obtained an understanding of our third-party vendor’s valuation methodologies and inputs. Fair values obtained from our third-party vendor are not adjusted by the Company.
The following is a description of the significant inputs, by asset class, used by the third-party pricing services to determine the fair values of our fixed maturities included in Level 2:
| • | U.S. government, government agencies and authorities are generally priced using the market approach. Inputs generally consist of trades of identical or similar securities, quoted prices in inactive markets and maturity. |
| • | States, municipalities and political subdivisions are generally priced using the market approach. Inputs generally consist of trades of identical or similar securities, quoted prices in inactive markets, new issuances and credit spreads. |
| • | Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are generally priced using the market approach. Inputs generally consist of trades of identical or similar securities, quoted prices in inactive markets, expected prepayments, expected credit default rates, delinquencies and issue specific information including, but not limited to, collateral type, seniority and vintage. |
| • | Corporate securities are generally priced using the market approach using pricing vendors. Inputs generally consist of trades of identical or similar securities, quoted prices in inactive markets, issuer rating, benchmark yields, maturity and credit spreads. |
Limited liability investment, at fair value - Limited liability investment, at fair value, include the underlying investments of Argo Holdings. Argo Holdings makes investments in limited liability companies and limited partnerships that hold investments in private operating companies.
The fair value of Argo Holdings' limited liability investments that hold investments in private operating companies is valued using a market approach including valuation multiples applied to corresponding performance metrics, such as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization; revenue; or net earnings. The selected valuation multiples were estimated using multiples provided by the investees and review of those multiples in light of investor updates, performance reports, financial statements and other relevant information. These investments are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Subordinated debt - The fair value of the subordinated debt is calculated using a model based on significant market observable inputs and inputs developed by a third-party. These inputs include credit spread assumptions developed by a third-party and market observable swap rates. The subordinated debt is categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Contingent consideration - The consideration for the Company's acquisitions of Advanced Plumbing and Southside Plumbing includes future payments to the former owners that are contingent upon the achievement of certain targets over future reporting periods. Liabilities for contingent consideration are measured and reported at fair value and are included in other liabilities, noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. Contingent consideration liabilities are revalued each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities can result from changes to one or multiple inputs, including adjustments to the discount rates or changes in the assumed achievement or timing of any targets. Any changes in fair value are reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The contingent consideration liabilities are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
| •
| The fair value of Advanced Plumbing's contingent consideration liability is estimated by applying the Monte Carlo simulation method to forecast achievement of adjusted EBITDA, which may result in up to $ |
| • | The fair value of Southside Plumbing's contingent consideration liability is estimated by applying the Monte Carlo simulation method to forecast achievement of adjusted EBITDA, which may result in up to $ |
Seller phantom equity awards - In connection with the acquisition of Roundhouse, the Company granted phantom equity awards to the former owners. The seller phantom equity awards are measured and reported at fair value and are included in other liabilities, noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheets. The seller phantom equity awards liability is measured and reported at fair value at the date of grant and is revalued each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the seller phantom equity awards can result from changes to one or multiple inputs, including adjustments to the discount rates or changes in Roundhouse performance. Any changes in fair value are reported in the consolidated statements of operations. The seller phantom equity awards liability is categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Trinity sold heating, ventilation, air conditioning ("HVAC"), standby generator, commercial LED lighting and commercial refrigeration warranty products and provided equipment breakdown and maintenance support services to companies across the United States. As a seller of warranty products, Trinity marketed and administered product warranty contracts for certain new and used products in the HVAC, standby generator, commercial LED lighting and commercial refrigeration industries throughout the United States. Trinity acted as an agent on behalf of the third-party insurance companies that underwrite and guaranty these warranty contracts. Trinity did not guaranty the performance underlying the warranty contracts it sold. As a provider of equipment breakdown and maintenance support services, Trinity acted as a single point of contact to its clients for both certain equipment breakdowns and scheduled maintenance of equipment. Trinity would provide such repair and breakdown services by contracting with certain HVAC providers.
NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE
Throughout this quarterly report, we present our operations in the way we believe will be most meaningful, useful and transparent to anyone using this financial information to evaluate our performance. Our unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. In addition to the U.S. GAAP presentation of net loss, we present segment operating income as a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, which we believe is valuable in managing our business and drawing comparisons to our peers. Below is a definition of our non-U.S. GAAP measure and its relationship to U.S. GAAP.
Segment Operating Income
Segment operating income represents one measure of the pretax profitability of our segments and is derived by subtracting direct segment expenses from direct segment revenues. Revenues and expenses are presented in the unaudited consolidated interim statements of operations, but are not subtotaled by segment; however, this information is available in total and by segment in Note 21, "Segmented Information," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, regarding reportable segment information. The nearest comparable U.S. GAAP measure to total segment operating income is operating income (loss) that, in addition to total segment operating income, includes corporate general and administrative expenses and excludes segment non-operating other (expenses) income, net.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CRITICAL ESTIMATES
The preparation of unaudited consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and their underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are recorded in the accounting period in which they are determined.
The Company’s most critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of its financial condition and results of operations, and that require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The critical accounting policies and judgments in the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements include revenue recognition; valuation of fixed maturity investments; impairment assessment of investments; valuation of limited liability investment, at fair value; valuation of deferred income taxes; accounting for business combinations; valuation and impairment assessment of intangible assets; goodwill recoverability; valuation of contingent consideration; fair value assumptions for subordinated debt obligations; fair value assumptions for subsidiary stock-based compensation awards; and valuation of redeemable noncontrolling interest. Although management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are based upon information available when they are made, and therefore, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The Company’s significant accounting policies and critical estimates are described in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 2025 Annual Report. There has been no material change to the information previously disclosed in the 2025 Annual Report with respect to these significant accounting policies and critical estimates.

Among other items, the current U.S. conflict with Iran, the degree and pace of inflation and interest rate changes may have impacts on our business and tariffs - or retaliatory responses to such tariffs - may impact the Company’s operating income. The potential impact of current macroeconomic uncertainties on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is subject to change and continues to depend on the extent and duration of these uncertainties.
The discussion below highlights the key drivers of the current and prior year results.
Kingsway Search Xcelerator
Kingsway Search Xcelerator revenue increased 18.2% to $22.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $19.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (an increase to $65.9 million year to date compared to $43.9 million prior year to date). Kingsway Search Xcelerator operating income was $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 ($9.0 million year to date compared to $6.0 million prior year to date).
Revenue and operating income were primarily impacted by the following:
| • |
The inclusion of Roundhouse for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 following its acquisition on July 1, 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, Roundhouse had revenue and operating income of $16.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively; |
| • |
The inclusion of KST for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 following the acquisitions of Bud's Plumbing (March 2025), Advanced Plumbing, and Southside Plumbing (both August 2025). KST had revenue and operating income of $4.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2026 (revenue and operating income of $14.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2026); |
| • |
The Ravix Group revenue increased $0.5 million to $4.0 million and operating income increased $0.3 million to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 (increases in revenue of $0.4 million to $12.0 million and operating income of $0.5 million to $2.7 million year to date). Operating income benefitted from the increase in revenue, which was partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026. The increases in revenue, operating income and general and administrative expenses were primarily due to the acquisitions of The HR Team (August 2025) and Ledgers (January 2026); and |
| • |
Image Solutions revenue increased $0.4 million to $2.4 million (20.2% increase from prior year quarter) and operating income decreased $0.1 million to $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 (increases in revenue of $0.9 million to $6.7 million and operating income of $0.1 million to $1.6 million year to date). Operating income benefitted from the increase in revenue, which was partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026. The increases in revenue, operating income and general and administrative expenses were primarily due to the acquisition of Romeo Computer Company, Inc. in August 2026. |
Extended Warranty
Extended Warranty revenue decreased 9.9% to $16.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $18.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (a decrease to $51.4 million year to date compared to $52.5 million prior year to date). Extended Warranty operating income was $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 ($1.7 million year to date compared to $0.9 million prior year to date).
Note that the Company sold Trinity on May 8, 2026; as such, revenue, operating income and other Extended Warranty financial results were lower for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026. Trinity had revenue of zero and $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively ($2.8 million and $7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively. Trinity had operating income of zero and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively (less than $0.1 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively).
Cash sales, excluding Trinity, were up 6.3% and 7.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, compared to prior periods.
Extended Warranty's revenue – and therefore operating income – is impacted by the fact that VSA sales are recognized over the life of the contract, which is not on a straight-line basis. This means that in periods where cash VSA sales are declining, revenue and operating income may continue to be strong due to higher prior-year sales. Conversely, when VSA cash sales are in a period of growth – as we are seeing now – revenue and operating income may continue to lag as prior-year lower sales have a larger impact on current period revenue/operating income than current period VSA cash sales.
| Kingsway Corporation |
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, there was a 1.6% and a 2.5% increase in claims paid at our auto Extended Warranty companies, respectively (Trinity did not incur claims). While the number of claims were down in the quarter and year-to-date compared to prior year, the average cost per claim continued to increase primarily due to inflationary pressures on the cost of parts and labor, as well as the type of claims incurred. We are able to mitigate the impact of higher claims expense by increasing pricing and re-categorizing vehicles to ensure they are in the appropriate rate class, which we do at least annually. However, due to the deferred revenue model under US GAAP, these price increases may impact our financials more in future periods rather than in the current period.
Interest and Investment (Loss) Income, Net
Interest and investment loss, net was $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to interest and investment income of $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 (income of $3.1 million year to date compared to $1.6 million prior year to date). The decrease for the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to realized losses of $0.3 million from an investment held by Argo Holdings Fund I, LLC ("Argo Holdings"). Also, the loss on change in fair value recognized by Argo Holdings was $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a gain of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
The increase for the year to date of 2026 was primarily due to realized gains recognized of $1.7 million resulting from distributions received during 2026 from private company investments and investments held by Argo Holdings.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Other Income not Allocated to Segments, Net
Selling, general and administrative expenses and other income not allocated to segments was a net expense of $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 ($9.5 million year to date compared to $9.3 million prior year to date). Included are expenses associated with our corporate holding company, expenses associated with our Operators-in-Residence who search for our next acquisitions, revenue and expenses associated with our various other investments (such as Argo Holdings) that are accounted for on a consolidated basis, (loss) gain on change in fair value of debt and loss on extinguishment of debt.
The decrease in net expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 is primarily attributable to lower acquisition and search related expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.
The increase in net expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 is primarily attributable to higher loss on change in fair value of debt and higher stock-based compensation expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. See Note 16, "Stock-Based Compensation," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for further discussion of stock options granted during 2026. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 increase was partially offset by lower acquisition and search related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.
See Note 10, "Debt," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for further discussion of changes in fair value of debt and loss on extinguishment of debt recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $1.4 million compared to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 ($4.2 million year to date compared to $4.0 million prior year to date). The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to reduced expense for existing loans due to principal amortization. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to the inclusion of interest expense for the Roundhouse and KPH loans for the year to date of 2026, partially offset by reduced expense for existing loans due to principal amortization.
See Note 10, "Debt," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for further details.
Amortization and Impairment of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets was $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 ($6.3 million year to date compared to $5.8 million prior year to date). The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to the inclusion of Roundhouse, Advanced Plumbing and Southside Plumbing (acquired in the third quarter of 2025) for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by decreased amortization expense for the Company's other intangible assets.
Impairment of intangible assets was zero in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2025 ($0.5 million year to date compared to $0.5 million prior year to date). The Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trade names, which are assessed for impairment annually as of November 30, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. At each quarter end of the first through third quarters of 2026 and 2025, the Company determined that certain of its trade name intangible assets should be further examined under a quantitative approach due to actual revenue coming in lower than previous projections. Based upon this assessment, the Company recorded no impairment charge during the third quarter of 2026 (year to date impairment related to CSuite and SNS indefinite-lived trade names); and during the third quarter and year to date of 2025 related to the CSuite and Ravix indefinite-lived trade names. The reductions in value are primarily due to higher discount rates and a reduction in projected revenue. See Note 8,"Intangible Assets," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for further discussion.
On May 8, 2026, the Company sold its subsidiary, Trinity. As a result of the sale, the Company recognized a net gain on disposal of $1.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The sale of Trinity did not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations or financial results; therefore, Trinity is not presented as a discontinued operation. See Note 5,"Acquisitions and Disposal," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for further discussion of the Trinity disposal.
| Kingsway Corporation |
Income Tax Benefit
Income tax benefit for the third quarter of 2026 was $0.2 million compared to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2025 (less than $0.1 million year to date compared to $2.4 million prior year to date). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported a tax benefit primarily due to the current period operating losses generating indefinite life deferred tax assets utilizable against indefinite life deferred tax liabilities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported a tax benefit primarily due to the release of its valuation allowance related to deferred tax liabilities from corporate acquisitions. See Note 14, "Income Taxes," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for additional detail of the income tax benefit recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.
INVESTMENTS
Portfolio Composition
See Note 2(f), "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Investments," to the consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report for an overview of how we account for our various investments.
At September 30, 2026, we held cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments with a carrying value of $59.7 million. Our operations typically invest in U.S. dollar-denominated instruments to mitigate their exposure to currency rate fluctuations.

Investment Impairment
The Company performs a quarterly analysis of its investments to determine if declines in fair value may result in the recognition of impairment losses in net loss. Factors considered in the determination of whether or not an impairment loss is recognized in net loss include a current intention or need to sell the security or an indication that a credit loss exists. See the "Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition included in the 2025 Annual Report for further information regarding the Company's detailed analysis and factors considered in establishing an impairment loss on an investment.
The Company's fixed maturities are subject to declines in fair value below amortized cost that may result in the recognition of impairment losses in net loss. If the decline in fair value is due to credit factors and the Company does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to support the entire amortized cost basis, the credit loss is reported in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that the declines are evaluated. Significant judgment is required in the determination of whether a credit loss has occurred for a security. The Company considers all available evidence when determining whether a security requires a credit allowance to be recorded, including the financial condition and expected near-term and long term prospects of the issuer, whether the issuer is current with interest and principal payments, credit ratings on the security or changes in ratings over time, general market conditions, industry, sector or other specific factors and whether the Company expects to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security.
There were no impairment losses recorded related to investments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the gross unrealized losses for fixed maturities amounted to $1.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and there were no unrealized losses attributable to non-investment grade fixed maturities.

See Note 10, "Debt," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for a detailed discussion of the Company's debt instruments. Changes related to the Company's debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 are further described below.
Bank Loans
Our bank loans contain a number of covenants, including, but not limited to, a leverage ratio and a fixed charge ratio and limits on annual capital expenditures, all of which are as defined in and calculated pursuant to the respective loan that, among other things, restrict the borrowing company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, make dividends and distributions, engage in mergers, acquisitions and consolidations, make certain payments and investments and dispose of certain assets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026:
| • |
Ravix, Ravix LLC and CSuite entered into a sixth amendment to the Ravix term loan that provides for adding a second tranche to the Ravix term loan with a principal amount of $0.5 million; |
|
| • |
DDI borrowed $0.3 million and made repayments of $0.2 million under the DDI revolver; |
|
| • | Image Solutions entered into a second amendment to the Image Solutions term loan that provides for (1) a new term loan with a principal amount of $7.75 million, with a maturity date of August 3, 2032; and (2) extending the maturity date of the revolver to August 3, 2029. In connection with the second amendment, Image Solutions used a portion of the proceeds from the new term loan to repay the outstanding principal balance under the original term loan of $6.3 million; |
|
| • | KWH borrowed $3.0 million under the KWH revolver prior to entering into a sixth amendment to the 2020 KWH Loan on September 30, 2026 that provides for (1) converting $4.0 million of the existing revolver balance into a new 2026 term loan with a maturity date of May 24, 2029; (2) reducing the revolver commitment from $5.0 million to $1.0 million and extending the maturity date of the revolver to May 24, 2029; and (3) reducing the remaining principal repayment amounts on the 2024 KWH Term Loan and 2024 KWH DDTL. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, KWH repaid $4.7 million of principal under the KWH term loan and DDTL, including a $3.0 million prepayment from the proceeds of the sale of Trinity. |
Beginning March 31, 2024 through September 30, 2026, SNS was in default under its loan due to debt covenant violations related to the leverage and fixed charge ratios (measured quarterly). In February 2026, SNS and the lender amended the credit agreement to (1) extend the SNS revolver maturity date to be June 2, 2026; and (2) suspend monthly principal payments beginning February 2026 through May 2026, with the next principal payment resuming in June 2026. In July 2026, SNS and the lender amended the credit agreement to (1) extend the SNS revolver maturity date to December 2, 2026; and (2) suspend monthly principal payments through November 2026, with the next principal payment resuming in December 2026.
Beginning September 30, 2025 through September 30, 2026, DDI was in default under its loan due to a debt covenant violation related to the fixed charge ratio (measured quarterly).
As of the report date, SNS and DDI have not received a waiver or amendment from their respective lender regarding their non-compliance. SNS and DDI are in active discussions with their lender with respect to obtaining a waiver. Also, as of the report date, there is some uncertainty as to whether the companies will be in compliance with the covenants in future periods, and if not, when the companies will be able to cure any potential violations. As a result, the Company has included the total principal balance due after one-year related to the DDI Loan of $2.3 million and the SNS Loan of $1.4 million in short-term and current portion of long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2026. A default may permit the lender to declare the amounts owed under the loans immediately due and payable, exercise their rights with respect to collateral securing the obligations, and/or exercise any other rights and remedies available.
At June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2026, KPH was in default under the KPH Loan due to a debt covenant violation related to the leverage and fixed charge ratios (measured quarterly). As of the report date, the Company has not received a waiver or amendment from the lender regarding this non-compliance. As a result, the Company has reclassified the total principal balance of the KPH Loan due after one-year of $3.2 million from long-term debt to short-term and current portion of long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2026. The Company is in active discussions with the lender with respect to obtaining a waiver. As of the report date, there is some uncertainty as to whether the Company will be in compliance with the covenants in future periods, and if not, when the Company will be able to cure any potential violations. A default may permit the lender to declare the amounts owed under the KPH Loan immediately due and payable, exercise their rights with respect to collateral securing the obligation, and/or exercise any other rights and remedies available.

All of the KSX and Extended Warranty indebtedness arises from individual, stand-alone credit agreements with the applicable Company subsidiary. None of such indebtedness is guaranteed by the Company or any other subsidiary or affiliate of the Company other than the borrower entity and its direct subsidiary, if any, and there are no cross-collateral, cross-default or similar provisions in the credit agreements.
Notes Payable
On January 2, 2026, Ravix entered into a seller note with a principal amount of $0.9 million in connection with an asset acquisition. The seller note was used to partially finance the asset acquisition.
On March 4, 2026, Roundhouse borrowed $0.4 million under an equipment line of credit. The Roundhouse equipment loan matures on March 1, 2033, requires monthly payments of principal and interest and has an annual fixed interest rate of 7.0%.
Subordinated Debt
The Company's subordinated debt is measured and reported at fair value. At September 30, 2026, the carrying value of the subordinated debt was $13.3 million. The fair value of the subordinated debt is calculated using a model based on significant market observable inputs and inputs developed by a third party. For a description of the market observable inputs and inputs developed by a third party used in determining fair value of debt, see Note 22, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements.
Though changes in the market observable swap rates will continue to introduce some volatility each quarter to the Company’s reported gain or loss on change in fair value of debt, changes in the credit spread assumption developed by the third party does not introduce volatility to the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Company’s subordinated debt will eventually equal the principal value totaling $15.0 million of the subordinated debt by the time of the stated redemption date of the remaining trust, which matures on May 22, 2033.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
See Note 4, "Recently Issued Accounting Standards," to the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, for discussion of certain accounting standards that may be applicable to the Company's current and future consolidated financial statements.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure there is sufficient cash to meet all financial commitments and obligations as they fall due. The liquidity requirements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been met primarily by funds generated from operations, capital raising, disposal of subsidiaries, investment maturities and investment income, and other returns received on investments and from the sale of investments.
A significant portion of the cash provided by our Extended Warranty companies is required to be placed into restricted trust accounts, as determined by the insurers who back-up our service contracts, in order to fund future expected claims. On a periodic basis (quarterly or annually), we may be required to contribute more into the restricted accounts or we may be permitted to draw additional funds from the restricted accounts, dependent upon actuarial analyses performed by the insurers regarding sufficiency of funds to cover future expected claims. A substantial portion of the restricted trust accounts are invested in fixed maturities and other instruments that have durations similar to the expected future claim projections.
Cash provided from these sources is used primarily for warranty expenses, business service expenses, debt servicing, acquisitions and operating expenses of the holding company.
The Company's Kingsway Search Xcelerator and Extended Warranty subsidiaries fund their obligations primarily through service fee and other revenue.
Cash Flows
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the net cash provided by operating activities was $5.3 million, primarily due to operating income from the Kingsway Search Xcelerator and Extended Warranty (the latter due to higher cash sales) segments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported less than $0.1 million of net cash provided by operating activities, primarily due to operating income from the Extended Warranty and Kingsway Search Xcelerator segments, partially offset by cash paid to settle the Ravix contingent liability of $2.3 million that is reported as an operating activity.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million. This use of cash was primarily attributed to purchases of fixed maturities in excess of sales and maturities of fixed maturities, the acquisition of RCC, net of cash acquired and net purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by the proceeds received from the sale of Trinity, net of cash disposed, of $4.4 million and cash distributions received from private company investments and investments held by Argo Holdings of $2.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the net cash used in investing activities was $29.9 million. This use of cash was primarily attributed to the acquisitions of Bud's Plumbing, Roundhouse, Advanced Plumbing and Southside Plumbing, net of cash acquired.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the net cash used in financing activities was $4.8 million. This use of cash was primarily attributed to principal repayments on debt of $14.8 million, distributions to noncontrolling interest holders of $0.7 million and payment of preferred stock dividends of $1.0 million, partially offset by principal proceeds from debt of $12.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the net cash provided by financing activities was $33.6 million. This source of cash was primarily attributed to net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $15.6 million, principal proceeds from debt of $24.1 million and proceeds from the issuance of Class C and Class D preferred stock of $6.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, partially offset by principal repayment on debt of $12.6 million, cash paid to settle the Ravix contingent liability of $0.4 million, payment of preferred stock dividends of $0.7 million and cash paid for repurchases of common stock of $0.3 million.
| Kingsway Corporation |
Holding Company Liquidity
The liquidity of the holding company is managed separately from its subsidiaries. The obligations of the holding company primarily consist of holding company operating expenses; transaction-related expenses; investments; and any other extraordinary demands on the holding company. The holding company does not provide guarantees to any of the operating companies with respect to borrowings that they might have and, as such, any debt incurred by the operating companies is non-recourse to the holding company. In addition, any debt incurred by the operating companies does not have cross-collateral or cross-default provisions; therefore, any default that might arise is limited only to the underlying borrower that might be in default and does not extend to other operating companies’ debt.
Pursuant to satisfying the covenants under the KWH bank loan, distributions to the holding company in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 million in any 12-month period are permitted. Also, the holding company is permitted to receive a portion of the excess cash flow (as defined in the loan document) generated by the KWH subsidiaries in the previous year.
The holding company’s liquidity, defined as the amount of cash in the bank accounts of Kingsway Corporation and Kingsway America Inc., was $1.0 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, which excludes future actions available to the holding company that could be taken to generate liquidity. Such future actions include, but are not limited to, issuance of equity securities and distributions from the Kingsway Search Xcelerator and Extended Warranty operating companies subject to certain loan covenants that may be in place at each operating company. The holding company cash amounts are reflected in the cash and cash equivalents of $8.3 million reported at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); therefore, pursuant to Regulation S-K, we are not required to make disclosures under this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2026.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints that require the Company’s management to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2026, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period beginning July 1, 2026, and ending September 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
| Kingsway Corporation |
From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings that, individually or in the aggregate, management believes would be material to the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Not applicable.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.

RECITALS
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Bank made available to Borrower a $7,750,000.00 term loan (the “Term Loan”), and a $500,000.00 revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Loans”; together with the Term Loan, collectively, the “Loans”). Borrower’s obligation to repay all sums advanced pursuant to the Loans together with interest thereon is secured by various liens on and security interests in Borrower’s assets.
WHEREAS, Borrower has notified Bank that Borrower intends to acquire substantially all of the Assets of ROMEO COMPUTER COMPANY, INC., a Michigan corporation (“Romeo”) pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Romeo Asset Purchase Agreement”) dated as of August 1, 2026, by and among Borrower 1, Romeo, and the Owners of Romeo party thereto, to be closed and consummated on the Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Romeo Asset Purchase Agreement) in exchange for aggregate consideration of $2,340,000 pursuant to the Romeo Asset Purchase Agreement (such transaction, the “Romeo Asset Purchase”).
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Credit Agreement, Borrower is required to obtain Bank’s prior written consent before consummating the Romeo Asset Purchase.
WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Bank (a) consent to the Romeo Asset Purchase, (b) make a supplemental term loan to Borrower to refinance the Term Loan and partially finance the Romeo Asset Purchase, and (c) amend certain other provisions in the Credit Agreement as more specifically set forth herein, and upon consideration of Borrower’s request, Bank has agreed to do so, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the matters set forth in the Recitals hereto and of the covenants and provisions herein set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
Section 1. Outstanding Obligations under the Credit Facilities.

On the Supplemental Term Loan Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Bank the entire unpaid principal balance of the Supplemental Term Loan together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon.
(c) Voluntary Prepayments. On or prior to August 3, 2029, Borrower may prepay the Supplemental Term Loan at any time in whole or in part, provided that concurrent with any such prepayment, Borrower shall pay the Supplemental Term Loan Prepayment Fee in accordance with Section 1.13(e).

The Supplemental Term Loan Prepayment Fee shall be due and payable concurrently with any prepayment of the Supplemental Term Loan on or prior to August 3, 2029, provided that no Supplemental Term Loan Prepayment Fee shall be due in connection with (A) voluntary prepayments of the Supplemental Term Loan in a Loan Year to the extent that (x) the sum of the amount of such prepayment plus the amount of any other voluntary prepayments of the Supplemental Term Loan made during such Loan Year plus the scheduled payments of principal of the Supplemental Term Loan during such Loan Year, would exceed (y) the product of the total amount advanced pursuant to the Supplemental Term Loan as of the date of determination multiplied by fifteen percent (15%), or (B) voluntary prepayments of the Supplemental Term Loan in connection with a refinancing by Bank.
(d) Application of Net Proceeds and Extraordinary Receipts. Section 1.14(f) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
