SiriusPoint to Repurchase Shares in Secondary Offering

HAMILTON, Bermuda - SiriusPoint Ltd. (NYSE: SPNT), a global insurance and reinsurance underwriter with a market capitalization of $2.35 billion, announced today a secondary offering of 4,106,631 common shares by entities associated with investor Daniel S. Loeb. In conjunction with this offering, SiriusPoint has expressed its intention to repurchase up to 2,000,000 of these shares at the public offering price. The repurchased shares are to be canceled. According to InvestingPro data, management has been actively pursuing share buybacks, demonstrating a commitment to returning value to shareholders.

Following the offering and a previously announced repurchase from CM Bermuda, the Loeb Entities will hold approximately 9.67% of SiriusPoint’s issued and outstanding common shares, a slight increase from their prior stake of approximately 9.4%. The remaining shares held by the Loeb Entities will be subject to a 90-day lock-up agreement with Jefferies, the sole bookrunning manager for the offering. Trading at a P/E ratio of 8.73, InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently overvalued relative to its Fair Value.

The offering is being made through an effective registration statement and a prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on December 16, 2024. Interested parties may obtain copies of the preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus from Jefferies LLC.

The company boasts over $2.6 billion in total capital and holds an A- (Excellent) financial strength rating from AM Best, S&P, and Fitch, and an A3 rating from Moody’s (NYSE:MCO).
