Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. These forward-looking statements may address, among other things, our expected financial and operational results, the related assumptions underlying our expected results and the quotations of management. These forward-looking statements are distinguished by use of words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms and similar references to future periods. These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date of this quarterly report.
Although Enact Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved and it undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Factors or events that we cannot predict, including the following, may cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements:
•
uncertainty around COVID-19 and its variants or the effects of government and other measures seeking to contain its spread, including risks related to an economic downturn or recession in the United States and in other countries around the world;
•
inability to continue to maintain the private mortgage insurer eligibility requirements (“PMIERs”) or any other restrictions imposed on us by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), government-sponsored enterprises collectively referred to as the “GSEs”;
•
deterioration in economic conditions or a decline in home prices;
•
uncertainty of our loss reserve estimates or inaccuracies in our models;
•
competition for our customers or the loss of a significant customer;
•
changes to the charters or practices of the GSEs, including actions or decisions to decrease or discontinue the use of mortgage insurance;
•
lenders or investors seeking alternatives to private mortgage insurance;
•
failure of our risk management or loss mitigation strategies;
•
fluctuations and continued increases in interest rates;
•
limited availability of capital or reinsurance;
•
adverse actions by rating agencies;
•
competition with government-owned enterprises and GSEs;
•
failure to manage the risk in our investment portfolio;
•
disruption in the servicing of mortgages covered by our insurance policies or poor servicer performance;
•
unanticipated claims arising under and risks associated with our delegated underwriting program or contract underwriting program;

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1)
Nature of Business, Organization Structure and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include, on a consolidated basis, the accounts of Enact Holdings, Inc. (“EHI,” together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) (formerly known as Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc.). EHI is a subsidiary of Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth” or “Parent”) and has been since EHI’s incorporation in Delaware in 2012.
We are engaged in the business of writing and assuming residential mortgage guaranty insurance. The insurance protects lenders and investors against certain losses resulting from nonpayment of loans secured by mortgages, deeds of trust, or other instruments constituting a lien on residential real estate.
On May 3, 2021, EHI amended its certificate of incorporation to change its name from Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc. This amendment also authorized EHI to issue
600,000,000
shares of common stock, each having a par value of $
0.01
per share. Concurrently, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”), pursuant to which Genworth Holdings exchanged its
100
shares of common stock, representing all of the previously issued and outstanding capital stock, for
162,840,000
newly-issued shares of common stock, par value $
0.01
, of EHI. All of the share and per share information presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the share exchange on a retroactive basis for all periods and as of all dates presented.
On September 15, 2021, we priced our initial public offering (“IPO”) of common stock, which resulted in the issuance and sale of
13,310,400
shares of common stock at the IPO price of $
19.00
per common share. All shares were offered by the selling stockholder, our parent company, Genworth Holdings. In addition to the shares sold in the IPO,
14,655,600
common shares were sold in a concurrent private sale (“Private Sale”) at a price per share of $
17.86
, which is equal to the IPO price less the underwriting discount share. Genworth Holdings also granted the underwriters a
30-day
option to purchase up to an additional
1,996,560
common shares (“Over-Allotment Option”) at the IPO price less the underwriting discount. On September 16, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase all
1,996,560
common shares permitted under the terms of the underwriting agreement. The IPO, Private Sale and Over-Allotment Option (collectively the “Offering”) closed on September 20, 2021, and Genworth Holdings retained all net proceeds from the Offering. The gross proceeds of the Offering, before payment of underwriter fees and other expenses, were approximately $
553
million. Costs directly related to the Offering, including underwriting fees and other expenses, were approximately $
24
million.
We offer private mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“primary mortgage insurance”). Our primary mortgage insurance enables borrowers to buy homes with a down payment of less than 20% of the home’s value. Primary mortgage insurance also facilitates the sale of these low down payment mortgage loans in the secondary mortgage market, most of which are sold to government sponsored enterprises. We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination.
We operate our business through our primary insurance subsidiary, Enact Mortgage Insurance Corporation, (“EMICO”), formerly known as Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corporation, with operations in all
50
states and the District of Columbia. We completed name changes to some of our subsidiary legal entities during the first quarter of 2022. EMICO is an approved insurer by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises and we refer to them collectively as the “GSEs.”

ENACT HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
We also perform fee-based contract underwriting services for mortgage lenders. The provision of underwriting services by mortgage insurers eliminates the duplicative lender and mortgage insurer underwriting activities and expedites the approval process.
We operate our business in a single segment, which is how our chief operating decision maker (who is our Chief Executive Officer) reviews our financial performance and allocates resources. Our segment includes a run-off insurance block with reference properties in Mexico (“run-off business”), which is immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the table above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the decline in fair value is largely due to rising interest rates and recent market volatility, and is not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments.
For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

Fair Value
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We hold fixed maturity securities and short-term investments, which are carried at fair value. The fair value of fixed maturity securities and short-term investments are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including asset-backed securities), an income or combination approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.
Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.
Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.
For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of September 30, 2022.
For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.
Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities and short-term investments based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.

Fixed maturity securities:
Third-party pricing services
In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, approximately
89
% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of September 30, 2022. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

165.3
million and $
91.7
million, respectively, as of September 30, 2022. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.
Short-term investments:
The fair value of short-term investments classified as Level 2 is determined after considering prices obtained by pricing services.
Level 3 measurements
Broker quotes
A portion of our U.S. corporate and other asset-backed securities are valued using broker quotes. Broker quotes are obtained from third-party providers that have current market knowledge to provide a reasonable price for securities not routinely priced by pricing services. Brokers utilized for valuation of assets are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by broker quotes was $
10.8
million as of September 30, 2022.
Internal models
A portion of our U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The primary inputs to the valuation of the bond population include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which includes significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage ratios, payment priority with the tranche, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

The transfers into and out of Level 3 for fixed maturity securities were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in the observability of external information used in determining the fair value, such as external ratings or credit spreads.
Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period. Such activity consists of purchases, sales and settlements of fixed maturity securities.
The amount presented for realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in net income for fixed maturity securities primarily represents amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on certain fixed maturity securities recorded within net investment income.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) incurred and paid exclude losses related to our run-off business.
The liability for loss reserves represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could possibly be significant, and result in future increases to reserves by amounts that could be material to our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
Losses incurred related to insured events of the current accident year relate to defaults that occurred in that year and represent the estimated ultimate amount of losses to be paid on such defaults. Losses incurred related to insured events of prior accident years represent the (favorable) or unfavorable development of reserves as a result of the actual rates at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”) and claim amounts being different than those we estimated when originally establishing the reserves.
24
ENACT HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Such estimates are based on our historical experience, which we believe is representative of expected future losses at the time of estimation. As a result of the extended period of time that may exist between the reporting of a delinquency and the claim payment, as well as changes in economic conditions and the real estate market, significant uncertainty and variability exist on amounts ultimately paid.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, losses and LAE incurred of $
139
million related to insured events of the current accident year was primarily attributable to new delinquencies, a portion of which was from borrowers participating in deferred or reduced payments (“forbearance”) as a result of COVID-19. When establishing loss reserves for borrowers in forbearance, we assume a lower rate of delinquencies becoming active claims, which has the effect of producing a lower reserve compared to delinquencies that are not in forbearance. Historical experience with localized natural disasters, such as hurricanes, indicates a higher cure rate for borrowers in forbearance. Unlike a hurricane where the natural disaster occurs at a point in time and the rebuild starts soon after, COVID-19 brought ongoing displacement to the mortgage insurance market, making it more difficult to determine the effectiveness of forbearance and the resulting claim rates for new delinquencies in forbearance plans. Given this difference, we initially leveraged our prior hurricane experience and have recently layered in cure activity from COVID-19 related delinquencies as considerations in the establishment of an appropriate claim rate estimate for new delinquencies in forbearance plans that have emerged as a result of COVID-19. Loss reserves recorded on these new delinquencies have a high degree of estimation due to the level of uncertainty regarding whether delinquencies in forbearance will ultimately cure or result in claim payments. Losses in current accident year were also impacted by $
25
million of reserve strengthening due to uncertainty in the current economic environment.
We also recorded favorable adjustments on prior accident year reserves of $
251
million, which was primarily driven by performance of delinquencies from 2020 related to the emergence of COVID-19. During the peak of COVID-19, we experienced elevated new delinquencies subject to forbearance plans. Those delinquencies have continued to cure at levels above our reserve expectations. During the first nine months of 2021, existing reserves were strengthened by $
10
million primarily driven by slower early cure emergence patterns on pre-COVID-19 delinquencies.
(6)
Reinsurance
We reinsure a portion of our policy risks in order to reduce our ultimate losses, diversify our exposures and comply with regulatory requirements. We also assume certain policy risks written by other companies.
Reinsurance does not relieve us from our obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations, we remain liable for the reinsured claims. We monitor both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions, activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of default by such reinsurers.

Revolving Credit Agreement
On June 30, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for a
five-year
, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $
200
million, including the ability for EHI to increase the commitments under the Facility, on an uncommitted basis, by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $
100
million. Borrowings under the Facility will accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at EHI’s option, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the ratings established by certain debt rating agencies for EHI’s senior unsecured debt.
We may use borrowings under the Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, capital and liquidity levels, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERS compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the Facility and the Facility remained undrawn as of September 30, 2022.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”).
In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. Factors that could cause such differences are discussed in the sections entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report. Future results could differ significantly from the historical results presented in this section. References to EHI, Enact, Enact Holdings, the “Company,” “we” or “our” herein are, unless the context otherwise requires, to EHI on a consolidated basis.
Key Factors Affecting Our Results
There have been no material changes to the factors affecting our results, as compared to those disclosed in the Annual Report, other than the impact of items as discussed below in “—Trends and Conditions”.
Trends and Conditions
During the third quarter of 2022, the United States and global economies experienced continued volatility due to high inflation, geopolitical uncertainty and supply chain disruption. Inflationary pressures lessened in the third quarter of 2022, but remain elevated with the Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting in September that the Consumer Price Index was 8.2% year-over-year. As a result, the Federal Reserve has continued its aggressive approach towards addressing inflation through interest rate increases and a reduction of its balance sheet. The Federal Reserve approved an interest rate increase of 0.75% in November 2022 following increases of 0.75% in September, July and June 2022, 0.50% in May 2022 and 0.25% in the first quarter of 2022. Financial markets have reacted with increased volatility and rates have increased across the Treasury yield curve.
Mortgage origination activity continued to decline during the third quarter of 2022 in response to rising mortgage rates. The refinance market is likely to remain low as the Federal Reserve has signaled that it may make additional interest rate increases to address persistent inflationary pressure. Housing affordability remains challenged as of August 2022 compared to the past few years due to sharply increasing interest rates and rising home prices, modestly offset by rising median family income according to the National Association of Realtors Housing Affordability Index. Year-over-year home price appreciation has slowed throughout 2022, and in July 2022, home prices declined for the first time in more than two years, according to the FHFA Monthly Purchase-Only House Price Index.
The unemployment rate ticked down slightly to 3.5% in September 2022 compared to 3.6% in June 2022, following a steady decline from its peak of 14.8% in April 2020, bringing unemployment in line with the pre-COVID-19 level of 3.5% in February 2020. In the third quarter of 2022, the number of unemployed Americans stands at approximately 5.8 million, relatively in line with February 2020 metrics. Among the unemployed, those on temporary layoff remained at approximately 0.8 million, down significantly from a peak of 18 million in April 2020, and the number of permanent job losses remained at approximately 1.2 million. In addition, the number of long term unemployed over 26 weeks was approximately 1.1 million in September 2022.
31
The Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) and the GSEs are focused on increasing the accessibility and affordability of homeownership, in particular for low- and moderate-income borrowers and underserved minority communities. In June 2022, the FHFA announced the release of Fannie Mae’s and Freddie Mac’s respective Equitable Housing Finance Plans. The proposals included many initiatives, including language discussing potential changes that could impact the mortgage insurance industry. These initiatives remain preliminary, and we will continue to work with the FHFA, the GSEs, and the broader housing finance industry as these proposals develop and to the extent they are implemented. We cannot predict whether or when any new practices or programs will be implemented under the GSEs’ Equitable Housing Finance Plans or other affordability initiatives, and if so in what form, nor can we predict what effect, if any, such practices or programs may have on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
For mortgages insured by the federal government (including those purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac), forbearance allows borrowers impacted by COVID-19 to temporarily suspend mortgage payments up to 18 months subject to certain limits. An initial forbearance period is typically up to six months and can be extended for another six months if requested by the borrower to its mortgage servicer. For GSE loans in a COVID-19 forbearance plan as of February 28, 2021, the maximum forbearance can be up to 18 months. Currently, the GSEs do not have a deadline for requesting an initial forbearance. Even though most foreclosure moratoriums expired at the end of 2021, federal laws and regulations continue to require servicers to discuss loss mitigation options with borrowers before proceeding with foreclosures. These requirements could further extend the foreclosure timeline, which could negatively impact the severity of loss on loans that go to claim.
Although it is difficult to predict the future level of reported forbearance and how many of the policies in a forbearance plan that remain current on their monthly mortgage payment will go delinquent, servicer-reported forbearances have generally declined. At the end of the third quarter of 2022 approximately 1.5%, or 14,231, of our active primary policies were reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 34% were reported as delinquent. As of September 30, 2022, we have not experienced any material impact from the recent hurricane affecting the southeastern United States. We will continue to monitor the affected areas and support the measures enacted by the GSEs allowing forbearance, restricting foreclosure actions and providing other forms of mortgage relief for those dealing with damage.
Total delinquencies decreased during the third quarter of 2022 as a result of cures outpacing new delinquencies, which decreased modestly during the quarter. The third quarter 2022 new delinquency rate of 1.0% was up slightly from the second quarter of 2022 but remains in line with pre-COVID-19 levels.
The full impact of COVID-19 and its ancillary economic effects on our future business results are difficult to predict. Given the maximum length of forbearance plans, the resolution of a delinquency in a plan may not be known for several quarters. We continue to monitor regulatory and government actions and the resolution of forbearance delinquencies. While the associated risks have moderated and delinquencies have declined, it is possible that COVID-19 could have an adverse impact on our future results of operations and financial condition.
Private mortgage insurance market penetration and eventual market size are affected in part by actions that impact housing or housing finance policy taken by the GSEs and the U.S. government, including but not limited to, the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and the FHFA. In the past, these actions have included announced changes, or potential changes, to underwriting standards, including changes to the GSEs’ automated underwriting systems, FHA pricing, GSE guaranty fees, loan limits and alternative products. On February 25, 2022, the FHFA finalized the rule for the Enterprise Capital Framework, which included technical corrections to their December 17, 2020 rule. Higher GSE capital requirements could lead to increased costs to borrowers of GSE loans, which in turn could shift the market away from the GSEs to the FHA or lender portfolios. Such a shift could potentially result in a smaller market for private mortgage insurance.
32
On October 24, 2022, the FHFA
announced two initiatives
: 1) t
argeted changes to the GSEs’ guarantee fee pricing by eliminating upfront fees for certain borrowers and affordable mortgage products, while implementing targeted increases to the upfront fees for most cash-out refinance loans; and 2) the validation and approval of both the FICO 10T credit score model and the VantageScore 4.0 credit score model for use by the GSEs as well as changing the requirement that lenders provide credit reports from all three nationwide consumer reporting agencies and instead only require credit reports from two of the three nationwide credit reporting agencies.
The upfront fees are eliminated for certain first-time home buyers with income at or below area median income and certain other GSE affordable housing products. The fee reductions are expected to go into effect “as soon as possible” while the new fees on cash-out refinance loans will begin February 1, 2023. We expect these price changes to be a net positive to the mortgage insurance market. The validation of the new credit scores requires lenders to deliver both credit scores for each loan sold to the GSEs. There is currently no implementation deadline, but this is expected to be a multiple year process that will require system and process updates along with coordination across stakeholders of the industry.
In January 2022, the FHFA introduced new upfront fees for some high-balance and second-home loans sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Upfront fees for high balance loans increased between 0.25% and 0.75%, tiered by loan-to-value ratio. For second home loans, the upfront fees increased between 1.125% and 3.875%, also tiered by loan-to-value ratio. The new pricing framework became effective April 1, 2022. To date, we have not experienced a significant impact to the mortgage insurance market or our projections based on this initiative.
On January 14, 2021, the FHFA and the Treasury Department agreed to amend the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements (“PSPAs”) between the Treasury Department and each of the GSEs to increase the amount of capital each GSE may retain. Among other things, the amendments to the PSPAs limit the number of certain mortgages the GSEs may acquire with two or more prescribed risk factors, including certain mortgages with combined loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios above 90%. However, on September 14, 2021, the FHFA and Treasury Department suspended certain provisions of the amendments to the PSPAs, including the limit on the number of mortgages with two or more risk factors that the GSEs may acquire. Such suspensions terminate on the later of one year after September 14, 2021, or six months after the Treasury Department notifies the GSEs of termination. The limit on the number of mortgages with two or more risk factors was based on the market size at the time, and we do not expect any material impact to the private mortgage market.
New insurance written of $15.1 billion in the third quarter of 2022 decreased 37% compared to the third quarter of 2021 primarily due to a smaller estimated private mortgage insurance market including a decline in refinance originations due to rising mortgage rates.
Our largest customer accounted for a sizable percentage of our total NIW during the first nine months of 2022 and we expect this customer to exceed 10% of our total estimated NIW for 2022. Our largest customer accounted for 14% of NIW for the year ended December 31, 2021. Additionally, no customer had earned premiums that accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues for the nine months ended September 2022, or the year ended December 31, 2021.
Our primary persistency increased to 82% during the third quarter of 2022 compared to 65% during the third quarter of 2021 and is in line with historic levels of approximately 80%. The increase in persistency was primarily driven by a decline in the percentage of our in-force policies with mortgage rates above current mortgage rates. The increase in persistency has offset the decline in new insurance written in the third quarter of 2022, leading to an increase in insurance in-force (“IIF”) of $15 billion since December 31, 2021. Low persistency impacted business performance trends in 2021 in several ways including, but not limited to, accelerating the recognition of earned premiums due to single premium policy cancellations, accelerating the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions, and shifting the concentration of our primary IIF to more recent years of policy origination. As of September 30, 2022, our primary IIF has approximately 4% concentration in 2014 and prior book years. In contrast, our 2021 book
33
year represents 35% of our primary IIF concentration while our 2022 book year concentration is 20% as of September 30, 2022.
The U.S. private mortgage insurance industry is highly competitive. Our market share is influenced by the execution of our go to market strategy, including but not limited to, pricing competitiveness relative to our peers and our selective participation in forward commitment transactions. We continue to manage the quality of new business through pricing and our underwriting guidelines, which are modified from time to time when circumstances warrant. We see the market and underwriting conditions, including the pricing environment, as being within our risk-adjusted return appetite enabling us to write new business at attractive returns. Ultimately, we expect our new insurance written with its strong credit profile and attractive pricing to positively contribute to our future profitability and return on equity.
Net earned premiums declined in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021 primarily as a result of the continued lapse of older, higher priced policies and a decrease in single premium cancellations. This was partially offset by insurance in-force growth. The total number of delinquent loans has declined from the COVID-19 peak in the second quarter of 2020 as forbearance exits continue and new forbearances declined. During this time and consistent with prior years, servicers continued the practice of remitting premiums during the early stages of default and we refund the post-delinquent premiums to the insured party if the delinquent loan goes to claim. We record a liability and a reduction to net earned premiums for the post-delinquent premiums we expect to refund. The post-delinquent premium liability recorded since the beginning of COVID-19 in the second quarter of 2020 through the third quarter of 2022 was not significant to the change in earned premiums for those periods as a result of the high concentration of new delinquencies being subject to a servicer reported forbearance plan and the lower estimated rate at which delinquencies go to claim for these loans.
Our loss ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was (17)% as compared to 14% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was due to reserve adjustments in the current quarter. We released $105 million of reserves on delinquencies from prior years, primarily related to favorable cure performance on COVID-19 delinquencies from 2020 and early 2021. During the peak of COVID-19, we experienced elevated new delinquencies subject to forbearance plans. Those delinquencies have continued to cure at levels above our reserve expectations, which led to the release of reserves in the third quarter of 2022. Reserves related to delinquencies from 2022 were strengthened by $25 million due to uncertainty in the current economic environment.
Our loss reserves continue to be impacted by COVID-19 and remain subject to uncertainty. Borrowers who have experienced a financial hardship including, but not limited to, the loss of income due to the closing of a business or the loss of a job, continue to take advantage of available forbearance programs and payment deferral options. Loss reserves recorded on these new delinquencies have a high degree of estimation due to the level of uncertainty regarding whether delinquencies in forbearance will ultimately cure or result in claim payments.
The severity of loss on loans that do go to claim may be negatively impacted by the extended forbearance and foreclosure timelines, the associated elevated expenses and the higher loan amount of the recent new delinquencies. These negative influences on loss severity could be mitigated, in part, by embedded home price appreciation. For loans insured on or after October 1, 2014, our mortgage insurance policies limit the number of months of unpaid interest and associated expenses that are included in the mortgage insurance claim amount to a maximum of 36 months.
New delinquencies in the third quarter of 2022 increased compared to the third quarter of 2021. Current period primary delinquencies of 9,121 contributed $39 million of loss expense in the third quarter of 2022. We incurred $33 million of losses from 7,427 current period delinquencies in the third quarter of 2021. In determining the loss expense estimate, considerations were given to forbearance and non-forbearance delinquencies, recent cure and claim experience, and the prevailing economic conditions. Approximately 18% of our primary new delinquencies in the third quarter of 2022 were subject to a forbearance plan as compared to 36% in the third quarter of 2021.
34
As of September 30, 2022, EMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio under the current regulatory framework as established under North Carolina law and enforced by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”), EMICO’s domestic insurance regulator, was approximately 12.3:1, compared with a risk-to-capital ratio of 12.3:1 and 11.9:1 as of December 31, 2021, and September 30, 2021, respectively. EMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio remains below the NCDOI’s maximum risk-to-capital ratio of 25:1. North Carolina’s calculation of risk-to-capital excludes the risk-in-force for delinquent loans given the established loss reserves against all delinquencies. EMICO’s ongoing risk-to-capital ratio will depend on the magnitude of future losses incurred by EMICO, the effectiveness of ongoing loss mitigation activities, new business volume and profitability, the amount of policy lapses and the amount of additional capital that is generated or distributed by the business or capital support provided.
Under PMIERs, we are subject to operational and financial requirements that private mortgage insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans that are purchased by the GSEs. Since 2020, the GSEs have issued several amendments to PMIERs, which implemented both permanent and temporary revisions.
For loans that became non-performing due to a COVID-19 hardship, PMIERs was temporarily amended with respect to each non-performing loan that (i) had an initial missed monthly payment occurring on or after March 1, 2020, and prior to April 1, 2021, or (ii) is subject to a forbearance plan granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19, the terms of which are materially consistent with terms of forbearance plans offered by the GSEs. The risk-based required asset amount factor for the non-performing loan is the greater of (a) the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a performing loan were it not delinquent, and (b) the product of a 0.30 multiplier and the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a non-performing loan. In the case of (i) above, absent the loan being subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above, the 0.30 multiplier was applicable for no longer than three calendar months beginning with the month in which the loan became a non-performing loan due to having missed two monthly payments. Loans subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above include those that are either in a repayment plan or loan modification trial period following the forbearance plan unless reported to the approved insurer that the loan is no longer in such forbearance plan, repayment plan, or loan modification trial period. The PMIERs amendment dated June 30, 2021 further allows loans that enter a forbearance plan due to a COVID-19 hardship on or after April 1, 2021 to remain eligible for extended application of the reduced PMIERs capital factor for as long as the loan remains in forbearance. In addition, the PMIERs amendment imposed permanent revisions to the risk-based required asset amount factor for non-performing loans for properties located in future Federal Emergency Management Agency Declared Major Disaster Areas eligible for individual assistance.
In September 2020, subsequent to the issuance of our senior notes due in 2025, the GSEs imposed certain restrictions (the “GSE Restrictions”) with respect to capital on our business. In May 2021, in connection with their conditional approval of the then potential partial sale of EHI, the GSEs confirmed the GSE Restrictions will remain in effect until the following collective conditions (“GSE Conditions”) are met for two consecutive quarters: (a) EMICO obtains “BBB+”/“Baa1” (or higher) rating from S&P, Moody’s or Fitch Ratings, Inc. and (b) Genworth achieves certain financial metrics. Genworth believes that they achieved their financial metrics for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, and expect to maintain compliance through December 31, 2022. If achieved, Enact would no longer be subject to GSE Restrictions and Conditions in early 2023, subject to GSE confirmation.
Prior to the satisfaction of the GSE Conditions, the GSE Restrictions require:
•
EMICO to maintain 120% of PMIERs minimum required assets through 2022 and 125% thereafter;
•
EHI to retain $300 million of net proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes offering that can be drawn down exclusively for debt service of those notes or to contribute to EMICO to meet its regulatory capital needs including PMIERs; and
35
•
written approval must be received from the GSEs prior to any additional debt issuance by either EMICO or EHI.
Until the GSE Conditions imposed in connection with the GSE Restrictions are met, our liquidity must not fall below 13.5% of its outstanding debt. In addition, Fannie Mae agreed to reconsider the GSE Restrictions if Genworth were to own 50% or less of EHI at any point prior to their expiration. We understand that Genworth’s current plans do not include a potential sale in which Genworth owns less than 80% of EHI. The current balance of the 2025 Senior Notes proceeds required to be held by our holding company is approximately $203 million.
As of September 30, 2022, we had estimated available assets of $5,292 million against $3,043 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to available assets of $5,147 million against $3,100 million net required assets as of June 30, 2022. The sufficiency ratio as of September 30, 2022, was 174%, or $2,249 million, above the published PMIERs requirements, compared to 166%, or $2,047 million, above the published PMIERs requirements as of June 30, 2022. PMIERs sufficiency is based on the published requirements applicable to private mortgage insurers and does not give effect to the GSE Restrictions imposed on our business. The increase in the PMIERs sufficiency for the quarter was driven by a new XOL transaction, business cash flows, and lower delinquencies, partially offset by NIW and amortization of existing reinsurance transactions. Our PMIERs required assets as of September 30, 2022, and June 30, 2022, benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain non-performing loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided $140 million of benefit to our September 30, 2022 PMIERs required assets compared to $178 million of benefit as of June 30, 2022. These amounts are gross of any incremental reinsurance benefit from the elimination of the 0.30 multiplier.
On July 21, 2022, Moody’s Investors Service upgraded the insurance financial strength rating of EMICO to Baa1 from Baa2. The increase was driven by improvement in our overall credit profile, including market position, profitability, capital adequacy and financial flexibility.
On January 27, 2022, we executed an excess of loss reinsurance transaction with a panel of reinsurers, which provides up to $294 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of current and expected new insurance written for the 2022 book year, effective January 1, 2022.
On March 24, 2022, we executed an excess of loss reinsurance transaction with a panel of reinsurers, which provides up to $325 million of reinsurance coverage on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from July 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, effective March 1, 2022.
On September 15, 2022, we executed an excess of loss reinsurance transaction with a panel of reinsurers, which provides up to $201 million of reinsurance coverage on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from January 1, 2022, through June 30, 2022, effective September 1, 2022.
On June 30, 2022, we entered into a five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders in the initial aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The Facility may be used for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The Facility remains undrawn as of September 30, 2022.
On April 26, 2022, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of a dividend program under which the Company intends to pay a quarterly cash dividend. The inaugural quarterly dividend for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.14 per share, and was paid on May 26, 2022. Our second quarterly dividend payment was also $0.14 per share and was paid on September 9, 2022, and we recently announced our quarterly dividend of $0.14 per share to be paid in December, 2022. Future
dividend payments are subject to quarterly review and approval
by our Board of Directors and Genworth, and will be targeted to be paid in the third month of each subsequent quarter. In April 2022, our primary mortgage insurance operating company, EMICO, completed a distribution to EHI that supports our ability to pay a quarterly dividend. We completed another such distribution in October 2022, subsequent to quarter end. We intend
36
to use these proceeds and future EMICO distributions to fund the quarterly dividend as well as to bolster our financial flexibility and potentially return additional capital to shareholders.
Returning capital to shareholders, balanced with our growth and risk management priorities, remains a key commitment as we look to drive shareholder value through time. We believe the initiation of a quarterly dividend reflects meaningful progress towards that goal. Further, subsequent to quarter end we announced a special cash dividend of $183 million, or $1.12 per share, to be paid during the fourth quarter of 2022. We also announced the initiation of a share repurchase program which authorizes the repurchase of up to $75 million of the Company’s common stock. Under the program, share repurchases may be made at the Company’s discretion from time to time in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, or by other means, including through 10b5-1 trading plans. In support, we have entered into an agreement with Genworth Holdings, Inc. to repurchase its Enact shares on a pro rata basis as part of the program. The share repurchase program is not expected to change Genworth’s ownership interest in Enact post completion. We expect the timing and amount of any share repurchases will be opportunistic and will depend on a variety of factors, including Enact’s share price, capital availability, business and market conditions, regulatory requirements, and debt covenant restrictions. The program does not obligate Enact to acquire any amount of common stock, it may be suspended or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice, and it does not have a specified expiration date.
Future return of capital will be shaped by our capital prioritization framework: supporting our existing policyholders, growing our mortgage insurance business, funding attractive new business opportunities and returning capital to shareholders. Our total return of capital will also be based on our view of the prevailing and prospective macroeconomic conditions, regulatory landscape and business performance.

Loss ratio is calculated by dividing losses incurred by net earned premiums.
(2)
Expense ratio is calculated by dividing acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, plus amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles by net earned premiums.
Revenues
Premiums decreased mainly attributable to the continued lapse of older, higher priced policies and a decrease in single premium cancellations. This was partially offset by insurance in-force growth driven by increased persistency.
Net investment income increased from higher yield as a result of rising interest rates and higher average invested assets partially offset by lower income from bond calls.
Net investment losses in the third quarter of 2022 were driven by realized losses on sales. Net investment gains from the third quarter of 2021 were driven by realized gains from sales.
Losses and expenses
Losses incurred during the third quarter of 2022 decreased due to prior year development, offset in part by current year reserve strengthening. We continued to experience better than expected cure performance on delinquencies primarily from 2020 and early 2021 related to COVID-19 contributing to a
38
reserve release of $105 million on prior years. Reserves related to delinquencies from 2022 were strengthened by $25 million associated with uncertainty the current economic environment. Current period primary delinquencies of 9,121 contributed $39 million of loss expense in the three months ended September 30, 2022. This compares to $33 million of loss expense from 7,427 current period primary delinquencies in the third quarter of 2021.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, remained relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as declines in variable costs were offset by higher general and administrative expenses.
The expense ratio increased slightly in the current quarter due to a higher percentage decline in premiums than expenses.
Interest expense primarily relates to our 2025 Senior Notes. For additional details see Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Provision for income taxes
The effective tax rate was 21.9% and 21.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, consistent with the United States corporate federal income tax rate.

Revenues
Premiums decreased mainly attributable to the continued lapse of older, higher priced policies and a decrease in single premium cancellations. This was partially offset by insurance in-force growth driven by increased persistency.
Net investment income increased primarily from higher average invested assets in the current year and a small increase in investment yields, partially offset by lower income from bond calls in the current year.
Net investment losses in the current year were primarily driven by realized losses from the sale of fixed maturity securities. Net investment losses in the prior year were mainly driven by credit losses related to non-US corporate fixed maturity securities and realized losses from the sale of fixed maturity securities.
40
Losses and expenses
Losses incurred decreased as a result of favorable reserve adjustments. New primary delinquencies of 25,692 contributed $113 million of loss expense in the first nine months of 2022. This compares to $107 million of loss expense from 24,432 new primary delinquencies in the first nine months of 2021. During the first nine months of 2022, we released reserves of $251 million on prior accident years reserves due to better than expected cure experience primarily on delinquencies from 2020 related to the emergence of COVID-19. This was partially offset by $25 million of reserve strengthening related to delinquencies from 2022 given uncertainty the current economic environment. In the prior year, existing reserves were strengthened by $10 million primarily driven by slower early cure emergence patterns on pre-COVID-19 delinquencies.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, increased primarily attributable to lower costs allocated by our Parent, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.
The expense ratio (net earned premiums) remained flat as we experienced a decline in both expenses and premiums during the period.
Interest expense primarily relates to our 2025 Senior Notes and increased as the notes were outstanding for only a portion of the nine months ended September 30, 2022. For additional details see Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use a non-U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP”) financial measure entitled “adjusted operating income.” This non-GAAP financial measure aligns with the way our business performance is evaluated by both management and our Board of Directors. This measure has been established in order to increase transparency for the purposes of evaluating our core operating trends and enabling more meaningful comparisons with our peers. Although “adjusted operating income” is a non-GAAP financial measure, for the reasons discussed above we believe this measure aids in understanding the underlying performance of our operations. Our senior management, including our chief operating decision maker (who is our Chief Executive Officer), use “adjusted operating income” as the primary measure to evaluate the fundamental financial performance of our business and to allocate resources.
“Adjusted operating income” is defined as U.S. GAAP net income excluding the effects of (i) net investment gains (losses) and (ii) restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items.
(i)
Net investment gains (losses)—The recognition of realized investment gains or losses can vary significantly across periods as the activity is highly discretionary based on the timing of individual securities sales due to such factors as market opportunities or exposure management. Trends in
41
the profitability of our fundamental operating activities can be more clearly identified without the fluctuations of these realized gains and losses. We do not view them to be indicative of our fundamental operating activities. Therefore, these items are excluded from our calculation of adjusted operating income.
(ii)
Restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from adjusted operating income if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends.
In reporting non-GAAP measures in the future, we may make other adjustments for expenses and gains we do not consider reflective of core operating performance in a particular period. We may disclose other non-GAAP operating measures if we believe that such a presentation would be helpful for investors to evaluate our operating condition by including additional information.
Adjusted operating income is not a measure of total profitability, and therefore should not be considered in isolation or viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income. Our definition of adjusted operating income may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies, including our peers.
Adjustments to reconcile net income to adjusted operating income assume a 21% tax rate (unless otherwise indicated).
The following table includes a reconciliation of net income to adjusted operating income for the periods indicated:

New insurance written (“NIW”)
NIW for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased 37% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. NIW for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased 32% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decreases were primarily due to a smaller market and lower mortgage refinancing originations in the current period largely driven by rising mortgage rates. We manage the quality of new business through pricing and our underwriting guidelines, which we modify from time to time as circumstances warrant.

Insurance in-force (“IIF”) and Risk in-force (“RIF”)
IIF increased as a result of NIW. Higher interest rates and the declining refinance market led to lower lapse and cancellations during the third quarter of 2022 driving increased persistency. Primary persistency was 82% and 65% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. RIF increased primarily as a result of higher IIF.

Delinquent loans and claims
Our delinquency management process begins with notification by the loan servicer of a delinquency on an insured loan. “Delinquency” is defined in our master policies as the borrower’s failure to pay when due an amount equal to the scheduled monthly mortgage payment under the terms of the mortgage. Generally, the master policies require an insured to notify us of a delinquency if the borrower fails to make two consecutive monthly mortgage payments prior to the due date of the next mortgage payment. We generally consider a loan to be delinquent and establish required reserves after the insured notifies us that the borrower has failed to make two scheduled mortgage payments. Borrowers may cure delinquencies by making all of the delinquent loan payments, agreeing to a loan modification, or by selling the property in full satisfaction of all amounts due under the mortgage. In most cases, delinquencies that are not cured result in a claim under our policy.

Direct primary case reserves exclude LAE, incurred but not reported and reinsurance reserves.
The total increase in reserves as a percentage of RIF as of September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by the decrease in delinquent RIF. Delinquent RIF decreased mainly due to lower total delinquencies as cures outpaced new delinquencies in the first nine months of 2022, while reserves decreased due to our reserve releases. While the number of loans that are delinquent for 12 months or more has decreased, it remains elevated compared to pre-COVID-19 levels due, in large part, to borrowers entering a forbearance plan over a year ago driven by COVID-19.
Resolution of a delinquency in a forbearance plan, whether it ultimately results in a cure or a claim, remains difficult to estimate. In addition, due to foreclosure moratoriums and the uncertainty around the lack of progression through the foreclosure process there is still uncertainty around the likelihood and timing of delinquencies going to claim.
Primary insurance delinquency rates differ from region to region in the United States at any one time depending upon economic conditions and cyclical growth patterns. Delinquency rates are shown by region based upon the location of the underlying property, rather than the location of the lender.

The frequency of delinquencies may not correlate directly with the number of claims received because delinquencies may cure. The rate at which delinquencies cure is influenced by borrowers’ financial resources and circumstances and regional economic differences. Whether a delinquency leads to a claim correlates highly with the borrower’s equity at the time of delinquency, as it influences the borrower’s willingness to continue to make payments, the borrower’s or the insured’s ability to sell the home for an amount sufficient to satisfy all amounts due under the mortgage loan and the borrower’s financial ability to continue making payments. When we receive notice of a delinquency, we use our proprietary model to determine whether a delinquent loan is a candidate for a modification. When our model identifies such a candidate, our loan workout specialists prioritize cases for loss mitigation based upon the likelihood that the loan will result in a claim. Loss mitigation actions include loan modification,
54
extension of credit to bring a loan current, foreclosure forbearance, pre-foreclosure sale and deed-in-lieu. These loss mitigation efforts often are an effective way to reduce our claim exposure and ultimate payouts.

Loss reserves in policy years in 2008 and prior are outsized compared to their representation of RIF. The size of these policy years at origination combined with the significant decline in home prices led to significant losses in these policy years. Although uncertainty remains with respect to the ultimate losses we will experience on these policy years, they have become a smaller percentage of our total mortgage insurance portfolio. The largest portion of loss reserves has shifted to newer book years as a result of COVID-19 given their significant representation of RIF. As of September 30, 2022, our 2015 and newer policy years represented approximately 96% of our primary RIF and 68% of our total direct primary case reserves.
Investment Portfolio
Our investment portfolio is affected by factors described below, each of which in turn may be affected by COVID-19 as noted above in “—Trends and Conditions.” The investment portfolios of our insurance subsidiaries are directed by a newly formed Enact Investment Committee with Genworth serving as the investment manager. The investment portfolio of EHI is directed by a separate newly formed EHI Investment Committee with a third-party investment manager. These parties, with oversight from our Board of Directors and our senior management team, are responsible for the execution of our investment strategy. Our investment portfolio is an important component of our consolidated financial results and represents our primary source of claims paying resources. Our investment portfolio primarily consists of a diverse mix of highly rated fixed income securities and is designed to achieve the following objectives:
•
Meet policyholder obligations through maintenance of sufficient liquidity;
•
Preserve capital;
•
Generate investment income;
•
Maximize statutory capital; and
•
Increase shareholder value, among other objectives.
To achieve our portfolio objectives, our investment strategy focuses primarily on:
•
Our business outlook, including current and expected future investment conditions;
•
Investments selection based on fundamental, research-driven strategies;
•
Diversification across a mix of fixed income, low-volatility investments while actively pursuing strategies to enhance yield;
•
Regular evaluation and optimization of our asset class mix;
•
Continuous monitoring of investment quality, duration, and liquidity;
•
Regulatory capital requirements; and
•
Restriction of investments correlated to the residential mortgage market.

We manage credit risk by analyzing issuers, transaction structures and any associated collateral. We also manage credit risk through country, industry, sector and issuer diversification and prudent asset allocation practices.
We primarily mitigate interest rate risk by employing a buy and hold investment philosophy that seeks to match fixed income maturities with expected liability cash flows in modestly adverse economic scenarios.

Our most significant source of operating cash flows is from premiums received from our insurance policies, while our most significant uses of operating cash flows are generally for claims paid on our insured policies and our operating expenses. Net cash from operating activities decreased largely due to lower unearned premium declines from cancelled single premium policies. Cash flows from operations were also impacted by changes in reserves, timing of tax payments, stock-based compensation expense and amortization of discounts and premiums on fixed maturity securities.
Investing activities are primarily related to purchases, sales and maturities of our investment portfolio. Net cash used by investing activities decreased as a result of lower net purchases of fixed maturity securities in the current year.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our cash flows from financing activities included dividends paid of $45.6 million. The amount and timing of future dividends is discussed within “—Trends and Conditions” as well as below. There were no dividends paid or other financing activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Capital Resources and Financing Activities
We issued our 2025 Senior Notes in 2020 with interest payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The 2025 Senior Notes mature on August 15, 2025. We may redeem the 2025 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to February 15, 2025, at our option, by paying a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. At any time on or after February 15, 2025, we may redeem the 2025 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at our option, at 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2025 Senior Notes contain customary events of default, which subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding 2025 Senior Notes if we breach the terms of the indenture.
Pursuant to the GSE Restrictions, we were required to retain $300 million of the net proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes offering that can be drawn down exclusively for our debt service or to contribute to EMICO to meet its regulatory capital needs including PMIERs. The current balance of the 2025 Senior Notes proceeds required to be held by our holding company is approximately $203 million. See “—Trends and Conditions” for additional information regarding the GSE Restrictions.
On June 30, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders that provides for a five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) in the initial aggregate principal amount of $200 million. We may use borrowings under the Facility for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The Facility contains several covenants, including financial covenants relating to minimum net worth, capital and liquidity levels, maximum debt to capitalization level and PMIERS
58
compliance. We are in compliance with all covenants of the Facility and the Facility remained undrawn as of September 30, 2022.
Restrictions on the Payment of Dividends
The ability of our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries to pay dividends and distributions to us is restricted by certain provisions of North Carolina insurance laws. Our insurance subsidiaries may pay dividends only from unassigned surplus; payments made from sources other than unassigned surplus, such as paid-in and contributed surplus, are categorized as distributions. Notice of all dividends must be submitted to the Commissioner of the NCDOI (the “Commissioner”) within 5 business days after declaration of the dividend or distribution, and at least 30 days before payment thereof. No dividend may be paid until 30 days after the Commissioner has received notice of the declaration thereof and (i) has not within that period disapproved the payment or (ii) has approved the payment within the 30-day period. Any distribution, regardless of amount, requires that same 30-day notice to the Commissioner, but also requires the Commissioner’s affirmative approval before being paid. Based on our estimated statutory results and in accordance with applicable dividend restrictions, EMICO has the capacity to pay dividends from unassigned surplus of $156 million as of September 30, 2022, with 30 day advance notice to the Commissioner of the intent to pay. In addition to dividends and distributions, alternative mechanisms, such as share repurchases, subject to any requisite regulatory approvals, may be utilized from time to time to upstream surplus.
In addition, we review multiple other considerations in parallel to determine a prospective dividend strategy for our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries. Given the regulatory focus on the reasonableness of an insurer’s surplus in relation to its outstanding liabilities and the adequacy of its surplus relative to its financial needs for any dividend, our insurance subsidiaries consider the minimum amount of policyholder surplus after giving effect to any contemplated future dividends. Regulatory minimum policyholder surplus is not codified in North Carolina law and limitations may vary based on prevailing business conditions including, but not limited to, the prevailing and future macroeconomic conditions. We estimate regulators would require a minimum policyholder surplus of approximately $300 million to meet their threshold standard. Given (i) we are subject to statutory accounting requirements that establish a contingency reserve of at least 50% of net earned premiums annually for ten years, after which time it is released into policyholder surplus and (ii) that no material 10-year contingency reserve releases are scheduled before 2024, we expect modest growth in policyholder surplus through 2024. As a result, minimum policyholder surplus could be a limitation on the future dividends of our regulated operating subsidiaries.
Another consideration in the development of the dividend strategies for our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries is our expected level of compliance with PMIERs. Prior to the satisfaction of the GSE Conditions, the GSE Restrictions also require EMICO to maintain 120% of PMIERs Minimum Required Assets through 2022, and 125% thereafter. In addition, under PMIERs, EMICO is subject to other operational and financial requirements that approved insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs. Refer to “—Trends and Conditions” for recent updates related to these requirements.
Our regulated insurance operating subsidiaries are also subject to statutory “risk-to-capital” (“RTC”) requirements that affect the dividend strategies of our regulated operating subsidiaries. EMICO’s domiciliary regulator, the NCDOI, requires the maintenance of a statutory RTC ratio not to exceed 25:1. See “—Risk-to-Capital Ratio” for additional RTC trend analysis.
We consider potential future dividends compared to the prior year statutory net income in the evaluation of dividend strategies for our regulated operating subsidiaries. We also consider the dividend payout ratio, or the ratio of potential future dividends compared to the estimated U.S. GAAP net income, in the evaluation of our dividend strategies. In either case, we do not have prescribed target or maximum thresholds, but we do evaluate the reasonableness of a potential dividend relative to the actual or estimated income generated in the proceeding or preceding calendar year after giving consideration to
59
prevailing business conditions including, but not limited to the prevailing and future macroeconomic conditions. In addition, the dividend strategies of our regulated operating subsidiaries are made in consultation with our Parent.
In April 2022, EMICO completed a distribution of approximately $242 million to EHI that will support our ability to pay a quarterly dividend. EMICO completed a similar distribution of $242 million to EHI subsequent to quarter end, in October 2022. We intend to use these proceeds and future EMICO distributions to fund a quarterly dividend as well as to bolster our financial flexibility at EHI and return additional capital to shareholders.
The credit agreement entered into in connection with the Facility contains customary restrictions on EHI’s ability to pay cash dividends. Under the credit agreement, EHI is permitted to make cash distributions (1) so long as no Default or Event of Default (as each are defined in the credit agreement) has occurred and is continuing and EHI is in pro forma compliance with its financial covenants as described in Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, at the time of and after giving effect to such payment, (2) within 60 days of declaration of any cash dividend so long as the payment was permitted under the credit agreement at the time of such declaration and (3) other customary exceptions as more fully set forth in the credit agreement.
In addition to the restrictions described above, all dividends from EHI are subject to Parent consent and EHI Board of Directors approval.
Risk-to-Capital Ratio
We compute our RTC ratio on a separate company statutory basis, as well as for our combined insurance operations. The RTC ratio is net RIF divided by policyholders’ surplus plus statutory contingency reserve. Our net RIF represents RIF, net of reinsurance ceded, and excludes risk on policies that are currently delinquent and for which loss reserves have been established. Statutory capital consists primarily of statutory policyholders’ surplus (which increases as a result of statutory net income and decreases as a result of statutory net loss and dividends paid), plus the statutory contingency reserve. The statutory contingency reserve is reported as a liability on the statutory balance sheet.
Certain states have insurance laws or regulations that require a mortgage insurer to maintain a minimum amount of statutory capital (including the statutory contingency reserve) relative to its level of RIF in order for the mortgage insurer to continue to write new business. While formulations of minimum capital vary in certain states, the most common measure applied allows for a maximum permitted RTC ratio of 25:1.

Liquidity
As of September 30, 2022, we maintained liquidity in the form of cash and cash equivalents of $536 million compared to $426 million as of December 31, 2021, and we also held significant levels of investment-grade fixed maturity securities that can be monetized should our cash and cash equivalents be insufficient to meet our obligations. On August 21, 2020, we issued the 2025 Senior Notes. The GSE Restrictions required us to retain $300 million of the net 2025 Senior Notes proceeds that can be drawn down exclusively for our debt service or to contribute to EMICO to meet its regulatory capital needs including PMIERs, until the GSE Conditions are satisfied. See “—Trends and Conditions” for additional details. We distributed $437 million of the net proceeds to Genworth Holdings at the closing of the offering of our 2025 Senior Notes. The 2025 Senior Notes were issued to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in a private offering exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The current balance of the 2025 Senior Notes proceeds required to be held by our holding company is approximately $203 million.
Additionally, on June 30, 2022, we entered into a five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders in the initial aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The Facility may be used for working capital needs and general corporate purposes, including the execution of dividends to our shareholders and capital contributions to our insurance subsidiaries. The Facility remains undrawn as of September 30, 2022.
The principal sources of liquidity in our business currently include insurance premiums, net investment income and cash flows from investment sales and maturities. We believe that the operating cash flows generated by our mortgage insurance subsidiary will provide the funds necessary to satisfy our claim payments, operating expenses and taxes. However, our subsidiaries are subject to regulatory and other capital restrictions with respect to the payment of dividends. To the extent the remaining balance of the $300 million of net proceeds retained from the 2025 Senior Notes offering is used to provide capital support to EMICO, the GSEs and the NCDOI may seek to prevent EMICO from returning that capital to EHI in the form of a dividend, distribution or an intercompany loan. We currently have no material financing commitments, such as lines of credit or guarantees, that are expected to affect our liquidity over the next five years, other than the 2025 Senior Notes and the Facility.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
Our loss reserves include delinquencies from borrower forbearance programs due to COVID-19, which have a high degree of estimation. Therefore, it is possible we could have higher contractual obligations related to these loss reserves if they do not cure or progress to claim as we expect. Other than changes in our aforementioned loss reserves, there have been no material additions or changes to our contractual obligations or other off-balance sheet arrangements as compared to the amounts disclosed within our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We own and manage a large investment portfolio of various holdings, types and maturities. Investment income is one of our material sources of revenue and the investment portfolio represents the primary resource supporting operational and claim payments. The assets within the investment portfolio are exposed to the same factors that affect overall financial market performance. While our investment portfolio is exposed to factors affecting markets worldwide, it is most sensitive to fluctuations in the drivers of United States markets.
We manage market risk via our defined investment policy guidelines implemented by our investment managers with oversight from our Board of Directors and our senior management. Important drivers of our market risk exposure that we monitor and manage include but are not limited to:
•
Changes to the level of interest rates
. Increasing interest rates may reduce the value of certain fixed-rate bonds held in the investment portfolio. Higher rates may cause variable-rate assets to generate additional income. Decreasing rates will have the reverse impact. Significant changes in interest rates can also affect persistency and claim rates that may require that the investment portfolio be restructured to better align it with future liabilities and claim payments. Such restructuring may cause investments to be liquidated when market conditions are adverse.
•
Changes to the term structure of interest rates
. Rising or falling rates typically change by different amounts along the yield curve. These changes may have unforeseen impacts on the value of certain assets.
•
Market volatility/changes in the real or perceived credit quality of investments
. Deterioration in the quality of investments, identified through changes to our own or third-party (e.g., rating agency) assessments, will reduce the value and potentially the liquidity of investments.
•
Concentration risk
. If the investment portfolio is highly concentrated in one asset, or in multiple assets whose values are highly correlated, the value of the total portfolio may be greatly affected by the change in value of just one asset or a group of highly correlated assets.
•
Prepayment risk
. Bonds may have call provisions that permit debtors to repay prior to maturity when it is to their advantage. This typically occurs when rates fall below the interest rate of the debt.
Market risk is measured for all investment assets at the individual security level. Market risks that are not fully captured by the quantitative analysis and material market risk changes that occur from the last reporting period to the current are discussed within “—Trends and conditions” and “—Investment Portfolio” in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”.
At September 30, 2022, the effective duration of our investments available-for-sale was 3.7 years, which means that an instantaneous parallel shift (movement up or down) in the yield curve of 100 basis points would result in a change of 3.7% in fair value of our investments available-for-sale.
63
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2022, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting During the Quarter Ended September 30, 2022
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed. You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2022, and the other information set forth elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. These risk factors and other information may not describe every risk that we face. The occurrence of any additional risks and uncertainties that are currently immaterial or unknown could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and/or financial condition.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no sales of unregistered equity securities during the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Item 5. Other Information
On November 1, 2022, EHI entered into a Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth”). EHI’s Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase shares of Common Stock for a purchase price of up to $75.0 million. EHI intends to repurchase shares of its Common Stock from stockholders other than Genworth (“Market Repurchases”) from time to time and subject to market and other conditions. Pursuant to the Agreement, EHI will repurchase shares from Genworth on a pro rata basis to Market Repurchases. The share repurchase program is not expected to change Genworth’s ownership interest in Enact post completion. The foregoing description of the Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this quarterly filing on Form 10-Q and incorporated by reference herein. The Agreement is filed with this quarterly report on Form 10-Q to provide security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about Enact, or Genworth. The representations, warranties, and covenants contained in the Agreement were made solely for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties. Security holders should not rely on the representations, warranties, and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Enact, or Genworth. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Enact’s public disclosures, except to the extent required by law.
