Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. For example, all statements we make relating to our estimated costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results, our plans, intended use of proceeds, anticipated cost savings relating to the Restructuring Plan and the amount and timing of delivery of annual cost savings, and objectives for future operations, growth or initiatives, strategies or the expected outcome or impact of pending or threatened litigation are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties (many of which may be amplified on account of the COVID-19 pandemic) that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected, including:

our potential failure to develop a succession plan for the senior management team, including Patrick G. Ryan, and/or to recruit and retain revenue producers;
the cyclicality of, and the economic conditions in, the markets in which we operate;
conditions that result in reduced insurer capacity;
the potential loss of our relationships with insurance carriers or our clients, failure to maintain good relationships with insurance carriers or clients, becoming dependent upon a limited number of insurance carriers or clients or the failure to develop new insurance carrier and client relationships;
significant competitive pressures in each of our businesses;
decreases in the premiums or commission rates set by insurers, or actions by insurers seeking repayment of commissions;
decrease in the amount of supplemental or contingent commissions we receive;
our inability to collect our receivables;
the potential that our underwriting models contain errors or that are otherwise ineffective;
damage to our reputation;
failure to maintain, protect and enhance our brand;
decreases in current market share as a result of disintermediation within the insurance industry, including increased competition from insurance companies, technology companies and the financial services industry, as well as the shift away from traditional insurance markets;
changes in the mode of compensation in the insurance industry;
changes in our accounting estimates, assumptions or methodologies, or changes in accounting guidance generally;
changes in interest rates that affect our cost of capital and net investment income;
changes in interest rates and deterioration of credit quality that reduce the value of our cash balances;
impairment of goodwill;
any failure to maintain our corporate culture;
the inability to maintain rapid growth and generate sufficient revenue to maintain profitability;
the loss of clients or business as a result of consolidation within the retail insurance brokerage industry;

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, or cautionary statements, are disclosed under the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and

“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements as well as other cautionary statements that are made from time to time in our other SEC filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.

 

Commonly Used Defined Terms

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context indicates or otherwise requires, the following terms have the following meanings:

“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company”, “Ryan Specialty”, and similar references refer: (i) following the consummation of the Organizational Transactions, including our IPO, to Ryan Specialty Group Holdings, Inc., and, unless otherwise stated, all of its subsidiaries, including RSG LLC, and (ii) prior to the completion of the Organizational Transactions, including our IPO, to RSG LLC and, unless otherwise stated, all of its subsidiaries.
Admitted: The insurance market comprising insurance carriers licensed to write business on an “admitted” basis by the insurance commissioner of the state in which the risk is located. Insurance rates and forms in this market are highly regulated by each state and coverages are largely uniform.
Affiliate (and, with a correlative meaning, “Affiliated”): With respect to a specified Person, each other Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Person specified. As used in this definition, “control” (including with correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means possession, directly or indirectly, of power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies (whether through ownership of voting securities or by contract or other agreement).
All Risks or ARL: All Risks Specialty, LLC (f/k/a All Risk, Ltd.), an insurance specialist providing services in wholesale brokerage and delegated underwriting authority.
All Risks Acquisition: In September 2020, Ryan Specialty acquired All Risks.
Binding Authority: Our Binding Authority receives submissions for insurance directly from retail brokers, evaluates price and makes underwriting decisions regarding these submissions based on narrowly prescribed guidelines provided by carriers, and binds and issues policies on behalf of insurance carriers who retain the insurance underwriting risk.
Class C Incentive Units: Class C common incentive units, initially of RSG LLC on and prior to September 30, 2021 and then subsequently of New RSG Holdings, that are subject to vesting and will be exchangeable into LLC Common Units. These awards were referred to as “Management Incentive Units” in our IPO Prospectus.
E&O: Errors and omissions.
E&S: Excess and surplus lines. In this insurance market, carriers are licensed on a “non-admitted” basis. The excess and surplus lines market often offers carriers more flexibility in terms, conditions, and rates than does the Admitted market.
Family Group: (i) In the case of a member of RSG LLC or a RSG LLC Employee who is an individual, such individual’s spouse, parents and descendants (whether natural or adopted) and any trust or estate planning vehicle or entity solely for the benefit of such individual and/or the individual’s spouse, parents, descendants and/or other relatives, and (ii) in the case of a member of RSG LLC or a RSG LLC Employee that is a trust, the beneficiary of such trust.
