Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. All statements, other than statements of present or historical fact included in this Quarterly Report, about our plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial, are forward-looking statements. Any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” “goal,” “project” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Moreover, the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report. We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report include, but are not limited to, statements about:

•

our projected financial information, anticipated growth rate and market opportunity;

•

our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange;

•

our ability to raise financing in the future and to comply with restrictive covenants related to long-term indebtedness;

•

our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, our officers, key employees or directors;

•

the accounting of our warrants as liabilities and any changes in the value of our warrants having a material effect on our financial results;

•

factors relating to our business, operations and financial performance, including:

Table of Contents

◦

our ability to drive growth through the Doma Intelligence platform;

◦

changes in the competitive and regulated industries in which we operate, variations in technology and operating performance across competitors, and changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;

◦

the current and future health and stability of the economy, financial conditions and residential housing market, including any extended downturn or slowdown;

◦

changes in general economic and financial conditions (including federal monetary policy, interest rates, inflation, home price fluctuations, housing inventory, labor shortages and supply chain issues) that may reduce demand for our products and services, lower our profitability or reduce our access to financing;

◦

our ability to implement business plans, forecasts and other expectations, and identify and realize additional opportunities;

◦

the impact on the real estate finance market from recent macroeconomic events and conditions that have resulted in a significant increase in interest rates largely due to actions of central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve; and

•

other factors detailed under the section “Risk Factors” in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Additional cautionary statements or discussions of risks and uncertainties that could affect our results or the achievement of the expectations described in forward-looking statements may also be contained in any subsequent periodic report.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.

You should read this Quarterly Report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity and performance as well as other events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

V) and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Capitol” refer to our legal predecessor company prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. References to “Old Doma” refer to Old Doma prior to the Business Combination and to States Title, the wholly owned subsidiary of Doma, upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

Old Doma was initially formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of States Title Inc. (“Legacy States Title”) to combine the operations of Legacy States Title and the retail agency and title insurance underwriting business (the “Acquired Business”) of North American Title Group, LLC (“NATG”), a subsidiary of Lennar Corporation (“Lennar”).

Doma is a real estate technology company that is disrupting a century-old industry by enabling a faster home closing experience with less friction for buyers and sellers. Doma uses proprietary machine intelligence technology and deep human expertise to create a vastly more simple and affordable experience for everyone involved in a residential real estate transaction, including current and prospective homeowners, mortgage lenders, title agents, and real estate professionals. With Doma, what used to take days can now be done in minutes, replacing an arcane and cumbersome process with a digital experience designed for today's world.

Starting in the second quarter of 2023 and finalized in the third quarter of 2023, the Company sold its assets used in or related to the Company’s title insurance agency business operated through local retail title offices (the Company’s “Local Component”). With the execution of the final agreements in the third quarter of 2023, the Company no longer has operations related to our previous Local retail branch footprint ("Local Component Direct Agents"). The Company determined that the execution of these agreements and the exiting of the Local Component represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, which triggered discontinued operations presentation, in accordance with ASC 205-20-45. We have historically reported our operations in two business segments: "Distribution," which included our divested Local Component as well as our Doma Enterprise channel and corporate support services, and "Underwriting." See Note 3 for additional details on the divestiture.

Subsequent to the finalization of the sale of the Local Component in the third quarter of 2023, our continuing operations continued to be reported as two business segments but whose designations have changed to: “Underwriting” and “Corporate and Other”. Corporate and Other contains our Doma Enterprise channel, our growth area offering technology solutions, and our centralized corporate support services. All current and prior periods reflected in this Form 10-Q have been presented as continuing and discontinued operations, unless otherwise noted. Refer to Note 7 and Note 18 for additional information regarding segment information and discontinued operations, respectively.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, and condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the financial information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and its results of operations, including its comprehensive loss, and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation under Accounting Standard Codification 205-20-45, “Discontinued Operations."

Table of Contents

References to the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) included hereinafter refer to the Accounting Standards Codification and Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions related to continuing operations have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reverse stock split

On June 29, 2023, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to effect a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and a corresponding adjustment to its authorized capital stock, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on June 29, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented, and discussions, in this Quarterly Report, unless otherwise indicated.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 25 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically converted into one share of issued and outstanding common stock. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to receive fractional shares of common stock were entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (a) the closing price per share of the common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange as of the first trading day following the Effective Time, by (b) the fraction of one share owned by the stockholder.

Proportionate adjustments were made to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or vesting of all stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance restricted stock units or market-based awards (the “Stock-Based Awards”) and warrants outstanding at the Effective Time, which resulted in a proportional decrease in the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise or vesting of such Stock-Based Awards and warrants. In the case of stock options and warrants, proportionate adjustments also included a proportional increase in the exercise price of such stock options and warrants. In addition, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan were proportionately reduced.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.

Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, reserves for incurred but not reported claims, the useful lives of property and equipment, accrued net premiums written from Third-Party Agent (as defined in Item 2) referrals, the fair value measurements, valuation of goodwill impairment, the valuations of stock-based compensation arrangements and the Sponsor Covered Shares liability (as defined below).

Trade and other receivables, net

Trade and other receivables include the following:

	*September 30,*			*December 31,*
	*2023*			*2022*
Trade receivables	$	5,905		$	6,833
Accrued net premiums written from Third-Party Agent referrals		2,950			2,409
Trade receivables, gross	$	8,855		$	9,242
Allowance for credit losses		(1,601	)		(1,413	)
Trade receivables, net	$	7,254		$	7,829
Local Sales Deferred Earnout receivable		12,867			—
Receivable from HSCM		5,225			—
Investment trade receivables		—			10,065
Miscellaneous other receivables		1,481			2,647
Other receivables	$	19,573		$	12,712
Trade and other receivables, net	$	26,827		$	20,541

Trade receivables are generally due within thirty to ninety days and are recorded net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company determines the allowance for credit losses by considering a number of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, previous loss history and a specific customer’s ability to pay its obligations to the Company. Amounts deemed uncollectible are expensed in the period in which such determination is made. The Local Sales Deferred Earnout receivable relates to the aggregate earnouts from the Local Sales discussed further in Note 3. The receivable from Hudson Structured Capital Management Ltd. (“HSCM”) consists of the cash proceeds from the Local Sales and from the sale of the title plant in Texas described in Note 18, net of repayments on the senior secured credit agreement, payable to the Company upon the occurrence of certain strategic events.

Title plants

Title plants are carried at cost, with costs incurred to maintain, update and operate title plants expensed as incurred. Because properly maintained title plants have indefinite lives and do not diminish in value with the passage of time, no provision has been made for depreciation or amortization. The Company analyzes the title plants for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. This analysis includes, but is not limited to, the effects of obsolescence, duplication, demand and other economic factors. There were no impairments of title plants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is assigned to one or more reporting units on the date of acquisition. We review our goodwill for impairment annually on October 1 of each year and between annual tests if events or circumstances arise that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any one of our reporting units below its respective carrying amount. In performing our annual goodwill impairment test, we first perform a qualitative assessment, which requires that we consider macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, changes in the Company’s stock price, changes in management or key personnel, changes in strategy, changes in customers, changes in the composition or carrying amount of a reporting unit or other factors that have the potential to impact fair value. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting units are greater than the carrying amounts, then the quantitative goodwill impairment test is not performed. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a non-cash impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, with the loss not exceeding the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Any impairment is charged to operations in the period that the impairment is identified.

Reinsurance

The Company utilizes reinsurance programs to limit its maximum loss exposure by reinsuring certain risks with other insurers. The Company has two reinsurance programs: the Facultative program and the Quota Share Treaty. Previously, the Company had been a party to an excess of loss treaty which expired per its terms on September 30, 2023.

Under the excess of loss treaty, we ceded liability over $15.0 million on all files. Excess of loss reinsurance coverage protects the Company from a large loss from a single loss occurrence. The excess of loss treaty provided for ceding liability above the retention of $15.0 million for all policies up to a liability cap of $500.0 million.

Under the Quota Share Treaty, effective February 24, 2021, the Company cedes 25% of the written premium on our instantly underwritten policies.

Effective October 1, 2023, the Company implemented the Facultative program. Under the Facultative program, we cede liability over $15.0 million on files on a case-by-case basis. This Facultative arrangement protects the Company from a large loss from a single loss occurrence.

Payments and recoveries on reinsured losses for the Company’s title insurance business were immaterial during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Ceding commission from reinsurance transactions are presented as revenue within the “Escrow, other title-related fees and other” revenue line item in the consolidated statements of operations.

Total premiums ceded in connection with reinsurance are netted against the written premiums in the consolidated statements of operations. Gross premiums earned and ceded premiums are as follows:

	*Three Months Ended September 30,*						*Nine Months Ended September 30,*
	*2023*			*2022*			*2023*			*2022*
Gross premiums earned		73,783			94,889			219,735			301,638
Ceded premiums		(47	)		(401	)		(267	)		(2,558	)
Net premiums earned		73,736			94,488			219,468			299,080
Percentage of amount net to gross		99.9	%		99.6	%		99.9	%		99.2	%

Income taxes

Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was (1)% as a result of a full valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets. In determining the realizability of the net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, we consider numerous factors including historical profitability, estimated future taxable income, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and the industry in which we operate. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company carried a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets as management believes it is more likely than not that the benefit of the net deferred tax assets covered by that valuation allowance will not be realized. A net deferred tax liability has been recorded as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Management reassesses the realization of the deferred tax assets each reporting period. The Company has approximately $0.2 million of pre-2018 federal net operating losses subject to expiration beginning in 2036. The remainder of the federal net operating losses have no expiration. The Company’s state net operating losses are subject to various expirations, beginning in 2030. The Company’s 2019 through 2022 tax years remain open to federal examinations. The Company’s 2018 through 2022 tax years remain open to state tax examinations. The Company believes that as of September 30, 2023 it had no material uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax expenses (benefits) are recognized in income tax expense, when applicable. There were no material liabilities for interest and penalties accrued as of September 30, 2023.

Leases

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception of the contract. The Company's inventory of leases primarily consists of operating office space and office equipment leases which are recorded as a lease obligation liability and as a lease right-of-use asset on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The lease right-of-use asset represents the Company's right to use each underlying asset for the lease term and the lease obligation liability represents the Company's obligation over the lease term. The Company's lease obligation is recorded at the present value of the lease payments based on the term of the lease. The Company applies an incremental borrowing rate of interest as of the effective date of adoption or the lease effective date equivalent to a collateralized borrowing rate with similar terms. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of our future minimum lease payments is based, where appropriate, on the Company's incremental borrowing rate of its current loan and security agreement.

Lease expenses for lease payments, where appropriate, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Short-term leases of 12 months or less are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and lease payments are recognized on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company accounts for agreements with lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. For more information on leases, refer to Note 17 of this Quarterly Report.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions and our investment portfolio. The Company has not experienced losses on the cash accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Additionally, we manage the exposure to credit risk in our investment portfolio by investing in high quality securities and diversifying our holdings. Our investment portfolio is comprised of corporate debt, foreign government securities, certificates of deposit, single-family residential mortgage loans, and U.S. Treasuries.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Table of Contents

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Additionally, the Company is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements.

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). The amendments in this and the related ASUs introduce broad changes to accounting for credit impairment of financial instruments. The primary updates include the introduction of a new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model that is based on expected rather than incurred losses for instruments measured at amortized cost and amends the accounting for impairment of held-to-maturity securities and available-for-sale securities. This model incorporates past experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts affecting collectability of these instruments. The amendments in this update are effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. For all other entities, the amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The early adoption of this new guidance on January 1, 2022 required the Company to record an allowance for credit losses for the Company’s held-to-maturity investment portfolio, which resulted in an allowance of $0.4 million and a corresponding $0.4 million adjustment for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of income taxes. For more information on the held-to-maturity allowance for credit losses, refer to Note 4 of this Quarterly Report. Prior to the adoption of the new guidance, the Company utilized an aging model to estimate credit losses on accounts receivable. As this aging model is allowed under the new guidance, there is no impact to the Company’s allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable. The adoption of this new standard did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated statements of operations or the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding the Company’s held-to-maturity allowance for credit losses, which have been included within Note 4.

Table of Contents

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Modified or new leases subsequent to the effective date will follow ASC 2016-02. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current U.S. GAAP. Under ASU 2020-05, the effective date for adoption of ASU 2016-02 is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We early adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2022 under a modified retrospective transition approach using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method approved by the FASB, which results in reporting for the comparative periods presented in accordance with the previous lease guidance under ASC 840. We elected the package of practical expedients but did not adopt the hindsight practical expedient as of January 1, 2022. The package of practical expedients allowed the Company not to reassess whether the arrangement contains a lease, lease classification and whether previously capitalized costs qualify as initial direct costs. The practical expedients allowed the Company to continue classifying all of its leases as operating leases as they were previously classified under ASC 840. The Company recognized lease liabilities of $24.4 million and corresponding right-of-use assets of $23.8 million in our consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2022. The difference between the lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets related to prepaid rent and deferred lease obligations recognized in prepaid expenses, deposits and other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2022, resulting in no cumulative-effect adjustment to opening equity. The new standard did not have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated statements of operations or the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The guidance also requires additional disclosures regarding the Company’s lease portfolio, which have been included within Note 17.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. Specifically, ASU 2019-12 eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. ASU 2019-12 is effective for private entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 under the private company transition guidance beginning January 1, 2022, and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures given the Company has a full valuation allowance and the scenarios for which the guidance offer simplification are not significant for the Company.

Recently issued but not adopted accounting pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944), Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. In June of 2020, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2018-12 for one-year in response to implementation challenges resulting from COVID-19. This update requires insurance companies to annually review and update the assumptions used for measuring the liability under long-duration contracts. The amendments in this ASU may be early adopted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not yet been issued, including interim financial statements. As an emerging growth company, we currently anticipate adopting this standard on January 1, 2025. Although we have long-duration contracts, this specific guidance is not expected to impact our title insurance operations; therefore, we do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Business combinations and divestitures

Capitol Business Combination

As described in Note 1, on March 2, 2021, Old Doma entered into the Agreement with Capitol, a blank check company incorporated in the State of Delaware and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger. Pursuant to the Agreement, a newly formed subsidiary of Capitol was merged with and into Old Doma, and the Business Combination was completed on July 28, 2021. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization and Capitol was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. Old Doma was deemed the predecessor for financial reporting purposes and Doma was deemed the successor SEC registrant, meaning that Old Doma’s financial statements for periods prior to the consummation of the Business Combination are disclosed in the financial statements included within this Quarterly Report and will be disclosed in Doma’s future periodic reports. No goodwill or other intangible assets were recorded, in accordance with GAAP.

Immediately after the Closing Date, 53,026 shares of common stock held by the Sponsor became subject to vesting, contingent upon the price of Doma’s common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Doma common stock”) exceeding certain thresholds (the “Sponsor Covered Shares”). As of September 30, 2023, there were 13,409,543 and 0 shares of common stock and preferred stock issued and outstanding, which excludes the 53,026 of Sponsor Covered Shares. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented, and discussions, in this Quarterly Report, unless otherwise indicated.

On December 4, 2020, Capitol consummated its initial public offering, which included the issuance of 11,500,000 redeemable warrants (the “Public Warrants”). Simultaneously with the closing of the initial public offering, Capitol completed the private sale of 5,833,333 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”). These Warrants remain outstanding following the Business Combination and 25 whole warrants entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $287.50 (see Note 16 for additional information).

Immediately after the Closing Date, 20% of the aggregate of our common stock held by certain investors (collectively, the “Sponsor”) became subject to vesting, contingent upon the price of our common stock exceeding certain thresholds. The Sponsor Covered Shares will vest in two tranches: (i) one-half of such shares shall vest if the last reported sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $375.00 for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period ending on or before the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) one-half of such shares shall vest if the last reported sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $437.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period ending on or before the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date. The Sponsor is also entitled to the Sponsor Covered Shares if a covered strategic transaction or change in control, as defined by the sponsor support agreement dated as of March 2, 2021 (the “Sponsor Support Agreement”) by and among the sponsors named thereto, Capitol and Old Doma, occurs prior to the ten (10)-year anniversary of the Closing Date. As of September 30, 2023, the Sponsor Covered Shares were legally outstanding; however, since none of the conditions were met, no related shares are included in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity or for the purposes of calculating earnings per share.

Also following the Closing Date, the Sellers have the contingent right to receive up to an additional number of shares equal to 5% of the sum of (i) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of our common stock (including restricted common stock, but excluding Sponsor Covered Shares), plus (ii) the maximum number of shares underlying our options that are vested and the maximum number of shares underlying warrants to purchase shares of Doma common stock issued as replacement warrants for Old Doma warrants, in each case of these clauses (i) and (ii), as of immediately following the Closing Date (the “Seller Earnout Shares”). The Seller Earnout Shares are contingently issuable to the Sellers in two tranches: (i) one-half of such shares shall be issued if the last reported sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $375.00 for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period ending on or before the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) one-half of such shares shall be issued if the last reported sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $437.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period ending on or before the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date. Since none of the conditions of the Seller Earnout Shares were met as of September 30, 2023, no related shares are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2023 or for purposes of calculating earnings per share.

Table of Contents

Unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise indicates, share counts of Doma common stock provided in this Quarterly Report exclude both the Sponsor Covered Shares and the Seller Earnout Shares.

North American Title Acquisition

On January 7, 2019, we acquired from Lennar its subsidiary, North American Title Insurance Company, which operated its title insurance underwriting business, and its third-party title insurance agency business, which was operated under its North American Title Company brand (collectively, the “Acquired Business”), for total stock and deferred cash consideration of $171.7 million (the “North American Title Acquisition”), including $87.0 million in the form of a seller financing note. Goodwill of $111.5 million resulted from the North American Title Acquisition.

Local Retail Branch Sales

On May 19, 2023, Doma Title of California, Inc. (the “Seller”) and Doma Corporate LLC, both subsidiaries of the Company, entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement (the “WFG Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Williston Financial Group LLC (“WFG”). Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the WFG Asset Purchase Agreement, the Seller agreed to sell to WFG certain assets used in or related to the Company’s title insurance agency business operated through retail title offices located in the State of California (the “WFG Asset Sale”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to $24.5 million, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the WFG Asset Purchase Agreement. The gross purchase price for the WFG Asset Sale consists of $10.5 million paid by WFG to the Seller on May 19, 2023 (the “WFG Sale Closing Date”) and a deferred payment of up to $14.0 million payable by WFG to the Seller within 30 days after the 12-month anniversary of the WFG Sale Closing Date ("WFG Deferred Payment"). The amount of the WFG Deferred Payment is subject to an earnout based on the retention of specified employees hired by WFG or an affiliate of WFG after the WFG Sale Closing Date. The sale included 22 retail title locations and operations centers in the Northern and Central California regions and 123 total employees. On the WFG Sale Closing Date, the Seller and a WFG affiliate, WFG National Title Insurance Company, entered into a customary transition services agreement.

In separate transactions, on July 14, 2023, the Company entered into and closed asset purchase agreements to sell certain assets used in or related to the Company’s title insurance agency business operated through retail title offices located in the Midwest and Texas to Hamilton National Title LLC d/b/a Near North Title Group and Capital Title of Texas, LLC, respectively. Additionally, on July 28, 2023, the Company closed an asset purchase agreement to sell certain assets used in or related to the Company’s title insurance agency business operated through retail title offices located in Florida to Hamilton National Title LLC d/b/a Near North Title Group. The Company entered into customary transition services agreements in conjunction with these sales.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein to “Q3 Local Sales” refers to the transactions entered into with Hamilton National Title LLC d/b/a Near North Title Group and Capital Title of Texas, LLC, and references herein to the “Local Sales” refers to the Q3 Local Sales and the WFG Asset Sale, collectively. References herein to “Deferred Earnout” refers to the WFG Deferred Payment and deferred payments of up to $2.1 million payable by Hamilton National Title LLC d/b/a Near North Title Group to the Company subject to revenue targets over the 12-month period subsequent to the related sales.

In conjunction with the Local Sales, we recognized the following:

	*WFG Asset Sale*		*Q3 Local Sales*		*Total Local Sales*
Pre-tax loss on sale of business	$	10,272	$	546	$	10,818

Cash consideration	$	10,500	$	2,645	$	13,145
Deferred Earnout receivable		10,928		1,556		12,484

Total transaction costs, including legal fees, professional fees and other	$	3,446	$	767	$	4,213

The Deferred Earnout is recorded in trade and other receivables in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the Deferred Earnout is based on historic, Company-specific attrition rates or revenue projections and a discount factor based on the weighted average cost of capital, both Level 3 inputs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized $0.4 million of income in our condensed consolidated statement of operations primarily related to the accretion of the discount recorded for the Deferred Earnout.

The cost basis of held-to-maturity debt securities includes an adjustment for the amortization of premium or discount since the date of purchase. Held-to-maturity debt securities valued at approximately $2.2 million and $5.9 million were on deposit with various governmental authorities at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, as required by law.

The change in net unrealized gains and losses on held-to-maturity debt securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0.9 million and $(2.5) million, respectively.

There were no held-to-maturity debt securities with contractual maturities after five years. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain borrowers have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Net unrealized losses on held-to-maturity debt securities and the fair value of the related securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position are as follows:

We believe that any unrealized losses on our held-to-maturity debt securities at September 30, 2023 are temporary based upon our current analysis of the issuers of the securities that we hold and current market conditions. We have no intent to sell, and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell, these securities until the fair value recovers to at least equal our cost basis or the securities mature.

Under the CECL model, the Company recognizes credit losses for its held-to-maturity debt securities by setting up an allowance which is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in the allowance recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses based on a number of factors including the current economic conditions, management's expectations of future economic conditions and performance indicators, such as credit agency ratings and payment and default history. As of September 30, 2023, credit agency ratings on our U.S. Treasury and corporate debt securities ranged from AAA through B2.

Table of Contents

For our held-to-maturity debt securities, the Company's model estimates expected credit loss by multiplying the exposure at default by both the probability of default and loss given default (“LGD”). The probability of default and LGD percentages are estimated after considering historical experience with global default rates and unsecured bond recovery rates for horizons aligning to the Company’s held-to-maturity debt security portfolio. The calculated allowance is recorded as an offset to held-to-maturity debt securities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and in the investment, dividend and other income line on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

*Rollforward of Credit Loss Allowance for Held-to-Maturity Debt Securities*

The cost basis of available-for-sale debt securities includes an adjustment for the amortization of premium or discount since the date of purchase.

The change in net unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0.0 million and $(0.8) million, respectively. Any unrealized holding gains or losses on available-for-sale debt securities as of September 30, 2023 are reported as accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized.

Net realized gains on disposition of available-for-sale debt securities are computed using the specific identification method and are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not have an allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale debt securities.

Mortgage loans

The mortgage loan portfolio as of September 30, 2023 is comprised entirely of single-family residential mortgage loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company did not purchase any new mortgage loans.

Mortgage loans, which include contractual terms to maturity of thirty years, are not categorized by contractual maturity as borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with, or without, call or prepayment penalties. The change in the mortgage loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was the result of principal prepayments and maturities.

Table of Contents

The cost and estimated fair value of mortgage loans are as follows:

	*September 30, 2023*				*December 31, 2022*

Accrued interest receivable

Accrued interest receivable from investments is included in trade and other receivables, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table reflects the composition of accrued interest receivable for investments:

	*September 30, 2023*		*December 31, 2022*
Corporate debt securities	$	250	$	834
U.S. Treasury securities		200		281
Foreign government securities		10		42
Accrued interest receivable on investment securities	$	460	$	1,157

The Company does not recognize an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivable, which is recorded in the trade and other receivables line in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, because the Company writes off accrued investment income timely. The Company writes off accrued interest receivables after three months by reversing interest income.

Fair value measurement

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used to measure financial assets or liabilities at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of asset or liability, characteristics specific to the asset or liability, market conditions and other factors. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Table of Contents

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are as follows:

Level 1			Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical asset or liability at the measurement date are used.

Level 2			Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 pricing inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3			Pricing inputs are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The inputs used in determination of fair value require significant judgment and estimation.

When fair value inputs fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the asset or liability is categorized in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the asset or liability. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the valuation of an asset or liability in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The categorization of an asset or liability within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the asset or liability and does not necessarily correspond to the perceived risk of that asset or liability.

The following table summarizes the Company’s investments measured at fair value. The Company’s available-for-sale securities in the following table are recorded at fair value on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company classifies U.S. Treasury bonds within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets. Corporate debt securities and certificates of deposit are classified within Level 2 because they are valued using inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable in the market, including readily available pricing sources for the identical underlying security which may be actively traded. The Company classifies mortgage loans as Level 3 due to the reliance on significant unobservable valuation inputs.

Table of Contents

The Company’s liabilities in the following table are recorded at fair value on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value:

	*Liabilities*
	*September 30, 2023*								*December 31, 2022*
	*Level 1*		*Level 2*		*Level 3*		*Total*		*Level 1*		*Level 2*		*Level 3*		*Total*

Total	$	54	$	27	$	98	$	179	$	230	$	117	$	219	$	566

The Company considers the Public Warrants to be Level 1 liabilities due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market under the symbol DOMAW. For the Private Placement Warrants, the Company considers the fair value of each Private Placement Warrant to be equivalent to that of each Public Warrant, with an immaterial adjustment for short-term marketability restrictions. As such, the Private Placement Warrants are classified as Level 2.

The fair value of the Sponsor Covered Shares was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model using a distribution of potential stock price outcomes on a daily basis over the original 10-year vesting period. The unobservable significant inputs to the valuation model were as follows:

	*September 30,*
	*2023*
Current stock price	$	5.08
Expected volatility		65.0	%
Risk-free interest rate		4.6	%
Expected term (years)		8
Expected dividend yield		—	%
Annual change in control probability		2.0	%

The changes for Level 3 items measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs are as follows:

	*Sponsor Covered Shares*
Fair value as of December 31, 2022	$	219
Change in fair value of Sponsor Covered Shares		(121	)
Fair value as of September 30, 2023	$	98

	Local Sales Deferred Earnout
Fair value as of December 31, 2022	$	—
WFG Asset Sale		10,928
Q3 Local Sales		1,556
Accretion of discount		383
Fair value as of September 30, 2023	$	12,867

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022. There were no transfers involving Level 3 assets or liabilities during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value and are therefore excluded from the leveling table above. The cost basis is determined to approximate fair value due to the short term duration of these financial instruments.

We continually update our liability for loss and loss adjustment expense estimates as new information becomes known, new loss patterns emerge, or as other contributing factors are considered and incorporated into the analysis. Estimating future title loss payments is difficult because of the complex nature of title claims, the long periods of time over which claims are paid, significantly varying dollar amounts of individual claims, and other factors.

Current year incurred and paid losses includes current year reported claims as well as estimated future losses on such claims.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the prior year’s provision for claims increase of $1.0 million is due to reported loss emergence which was higher than expected, primarily from the 2016 and 2022 policy years. This was the result of a small number of more severe claims primarily reported in 2023, most of which related to underwriting related activities. Historically, we have had favorable loss experience which has resulted in a decrease in the projection of ultimate loss for past policy years. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the provision for claims reserve release related to prior years of $3.3 million is due to reported loss emergence which was lower than expected. Most recently, our favorable loss experience resulted in a decrease in the projection of ultimate loss for policy years 2018, 2020, and 2021. The actuarial assumptions underlying the Company’s selected ultimate loss estimates place more consideration on title insurance industry benchmarks for more recent policy years. These title insurance benchmarks are based on industry long-term average loss ratios. As the Company’s claims experience matures, we refine those estimates to put more consideration to the Company’s actual claims experience. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company’s actual claims experience reflects a lower loss ratio than industry benchmarks from a current positive underwriting cycle and resulted in the favorable development.

7. Segment information

We have historically reported our operations in two business segments: "Distribution," which included our divested Local channel as well as our Doma Enterprise channel and corporate support services, and "Underwriting." As discussed in Note 3, in the second and third quarters of 2023, the Company sold its assets used in or related to the Company’s Local Component. With the execution of these agreements, the Company no longer has operations related to our previous Local Component.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, we have reflected the results of the Local Component as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.

Subsequent to the announcement of the Local Sales, the Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial performance and makes decisions about the allocation of resources for our operations through two reportable segments, (1) "Underwriting" and (2) "Corporate and Other." The Company’s reportable segments offer different products and services that are marketed through different channels for real estate closing transactions. They are managed separately because of the unique technology, service requirements and regulatory environment.

A description of each of our reportable segments is as follows.

•

Underwriting: our Underwriting segment reflects the results of our title insurance underwriting business, including policies referred primarily through our Third-Party Agents channel. The referring agents retain approximately 82% - 84% of the policy premiums in exchange for their services. These retention rates vary by state and agent.

•

Corporate and Other: our Corporate and Other segment includes our operations related to the execution of our title, escrow and settlement services through our Doma Enterprise channel. Our Doma Enterprise channel targets partnerships with national lenders and mortgage originators that maintain centralized lending operations ("Direct Agents"). Once an Enterprise partnership has been established, we integrate our Doma Intelligence platform with the partner’s production systems, to enable frictionless order origination and fulfillment. Substantially all Doma Enterprise orders are underwritten by Doma. In addition, Corporate and Other includes investing activity related to our investment portfolio held outside of Underwriting.

We use adjusted gross profit as the primary profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. Adjusted gross profit is calculated by subtracting direct costs, such as premiums retained by agents, direct labor, other direct costs, and provision for claims, from total revenue. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates the results of the aforementioned segments on a pre-tax basis. Segment adjusted gross profit excludes certain items which are included in net loss, such as depreciation and amortization, corporate and other expenses, long-lived asset impairment, change in the fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities, interest expense, and income tax expense, as these items are not considered by the chief operating decision maker in evaluating the segments’ overall operating performance. Our chief operating decision maker does not review nor consider assets allocated to our segments for the purpose of assessing performance or allocating resources. Accordingly, segments’ assets are not presented.

The following table summarizes the operating results from continuing operations of the Company’s reportable segments:

8. Debt

Senior secured credit agreement

On December 31, 2020, Old Doma executed a loan and security agreement with Hudson Structured Capital Management Ltd. (“HSCM”), providing for a $150.0 million senior secured term loan (“Senior Debt”) that was funded by the lenders, which are affiliates of HSCM, on January 29, 2021 (“Funding Date”). The Senior Debt matures five years from the Funding Date. Under the agreement, the Senior Debt will bear interest of 11.25% per annum, 5.0% of which will be paid on a current cash basis and the remainder to accrue and be added to the outstanding principal balance. Interest shall be compounded quarterly. If at any time Old Doma (now known as States Title) is in an event of default under the Senior Debt, outstanding amounts shall bear interest at the default interest rate of 15.00%. Upon funding, Old Doma issued penny warrants to affiliates of HSCM equal to 1.35% of Old Doma’s fully diluted shares. The warrants were net exercised on the Closing Date and such affiliates of HSCM received the right to receive approximately 0.2 million shares of our common stock. The Senior Debt is secured by a first-priority pledge and security interest in substantially all of the assets (tangible and intangible) of our wholly owned subsidiary States Title (which represent substantially all of our assets) and any of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries (in each case, subject to customary exclusions, including the exclusion of regulated insurance company subsidiaries). States Title is subject to customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants, including, among other things, minimum liquidity of $20.0 million (as of the last day of any month), minimum consolidated annual revenue of $130.0 million, limits on the incurrence of indebtedness, restrictions on asset sales outside the ordinary course of business and material acquisitions, limitations on dividends and other restricted payments. States Title was in compliance with the Senior Debt covenants as of September 30, 2023. The Senior Debt also includes customary events of default for facilities of this type and provides that, if an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Senior Debt will amortize requiring regular payments on a straight-line basis over the subsequent 24-month calendar period, but not to extend beyond the maturity date.

On May 19, 2023, Old Doma and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into the third amendment to the Senior Debt agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment amends certain mandatory prepayment provisions related to the disposition of assets by Old Doma or any of its subsidiaries such that Old Doma is required, within five business days following the receipt of net cash proceeds from dispositions in excess of $750,000 in any fiscal year (other than certain permitted dispositions), to repay the outstanding principal amount of term loan borrowings in an amount equal to 100% of such excess net cash proceeds received by Old Doma or any of its subsidiaries from such dispositions, unless HSCM, as agent, otherwise agrees.

The estimated fair value of the Senior Debt at September 30, 2023 was $153.9 million. No active or observable market exists for the Senior Debt and, as a result, this is a Level 3 fair value measurement. Therefore, the estimated fair value of the Senior Debt is based on the income valuation approach, which is a valuation technique that converts future amounts (for example, cash flows or income and expenses) to a single current (that is, discounted) amount.

9. Stock compensation expense

The Company issued stock options (incentive stock options (“ISOs”), non-statutory stock options (“NSOs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to employees and key advisors under the Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, which has been approved by the board of directors. Granted stock options do not expire for 10 years and have vesting periods ranging from 7 to 60 months. The holder of one stock option may purchase one share of common stock at the underlying strike price.

The Company issues restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The RSUs are subject to time-based vesting, generally with a majority of the RSUs vesting 25% on the first anniversary of the award date and ratably thereafter for twelve quarters, such that the RSUs will be fully vested on the fourth anniversary of their award date. Eligible participants in the PRSUs will receive a number of earned shares based on Company financial results during the performance period, as established by the Company’s board of directors. Earned shares for the PRSUs will fully vest once the continuous employment service condition is met after the performance period. The RSUs and PRSUs are measured at fair market value on the grant date and stock-based compensation expense is recognized as the shares vest with a corresponding offset credited to additional paid-in-capital.

In June 2022, the Company issued stock awards to its Chief Executive Officer under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan that vest upon the satisfaction of a time-based service condition and a market condition (“market-based awards”). Both the service and the market condition must be satisfied for the award to vest. The market condition of the awards is based on the 90-day volume weighted average price of the common stock of the Company reaching a price hurdle of $125.00, $187.50, and $250.00 during a performance period of 4 years. The maximum number of shares that can be earned under the market-based awards is 97,413 shares, with one-third of the total award allocated to each identified average price threshold. The time-based service condition in the market-based awards is satisfied quarterly over sixteen quarters of continuous employment, such that the service condition included in the market-based awards will be fully satisfied on the fourth anniversary of their award date. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to the market-based awards using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period.

In May 2023, the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors approved modifications to the vesting conditions and exercise periods of outstanding equity compensation awards held by certain of the Company's then-current employees who became employees of WFG in the WFG Asset Sale. These modifications became effective upon acceptance of employment with WFG. Pursuant to such modifications, the options and RSUs held by WFG employees vest on May 20, 2024; provided that employment with WFG does not terminate prior to such date. These modified awards vest based on conditions that are not classified as a service, market or performance condition, and as a result, such awards are classified as a liability. In accordance with ASC 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation," stock-based compensation expense of $2.2 million previously incurred on the original awards was reversed in the personnel costs line in the consolidated statements of operations in the second quarter of 2023, and the Company recorded a liability of $0.2 million for the fair value of the modified awards in the accrued expenses and other liabilities line in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

On August 3, 2023, the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors granted RSUs totaling approximately 1.0 million shares. The RSUs are subject to time-based vesting, with 50% of the RSUs vesting on the six-month anniversary of the award date, and the remainder vest in four consecutive, equal, quarterly installments such that the award is fully vested on the 18-month anniversary of the award date; provided the awardee is continuously employed through such date as applicable.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $1.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively, was recognized due to changes in the estimated probability of the financial metrics associated with certain PRSUs. Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $4.7 million and $6.9 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $12.5 million and $24.1 million, respectively.

Market-based awards

The market-based awards were measured at fair market value on the grant date, and stock-based compensation expense is recognized as the shares vest with a corresponding offset credited to additional paid-in-capital. The fair value of the market-based awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model using a distribution of potential stock price outcomes on a daily basis over the original 4-year vesting period. The unobservable significant inputs to the valuation model at the time of award issuance were as follows:

Stock price at issuance	$	23.00
Expected volatility		75.0	%
Risk-free interest rate		3.14	%

12. Commitments and contingencies

Legal matters

The Company is subject to claims and litigation matters in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe the resolution of any such matters will have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Commitments and other contingencies

The Company also administers escrow deposits as a service to customers, a substantial portion of which are held at third-party financial institutions. These escrow deposits amounted to $15.9 million and $77.4 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Such deposits are not reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, but the Company could be contingently liable for them under certain circumstances (for example, if the Company disposes of escrowed assets). Such contingent liabilities have not materially impacted the results of operations or financial condition to date and are not expected to do so in the future.

See Note 17 in our condensed consolidated financial statements for information on our operating lease obligations.

Workforce reduction plans

In 2022, the Company executed three separate workforce reduction plans (the “2022 Reduction Plans”) to reduce costs, improve Local branch-level profitability, and focus resources on its instant underwriting capabilities. The Reduction Plans during 2022 included the elimination of approximately 1,076 positions across the Company, or approximately 52% of the Company’s workforce as of December 31, 2022. On August 2, 2023, the Company committed to an additional workforce reduction plan (the “2023 Reduction” and collectively with the 2022 Reductions Plans, the “Reduction Plans”) to improve cost efficiency and focus on our instant underwriting technology and Underwriting operations. The 2023 Reduction included the elimination of approximately 70 positions across the Company, or approximately 17% of the Company’s then current workforce. The Company estimates that it will incur approximately $0.7 million in charges in connection with the 2023 Reduction, including cash expenditures for employee benefits, severance payments, payroll taxes and related facilitation costs offset by forfeitures of bonus and stock-based compensation. The Company expects the execution of the Reduction Plans, including cash payments, will be substantially complete by December 31, 2023.

Liabilities associated with the Reduction Plans are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes activity related to the liabilities associated with the Reduction Plans:

	*Total*
Balance as of January 1, 2023	$	4,984
Charges incurred ⁽¹⁾		9,459
Payments and other adjustments		(13,951	)
Balance as of September 30, 2023	$	492

(1)	Charges incurred include interim salary for employees with known departure dates, employee benefits, severance, payroll taxes and related facilitation costs offset by forfeitures of bonus.

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, forfeited stock-based compensation associated with the Reduction Plans was $0.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, forfeited stock-based compensation associated with the Reduction Plans was $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The charges incurred and forfeited stock-based compensation associated with the Reduction Plans primarily relate to the Company’s Corporate and Other reportable segment.

Contract terminations

Associated with the Company’s Reduction Plans and vendor management initiatives during the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded $5.2 million in accelerated contract charges related to contracts that will continue to be incurred for the contracts’ remaining terms without economic benefit to the Company. Additionally, with the execution of the 2023 Reduction, the Company recorded $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023 in accelerated contract charges related to contracts that will continue to be incurred for the contracts’ remaining terms without economic benefit to the Company. These contract termination charges were recorded in other operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. There were no accelerated contract charges recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, total accrued liabilities related to these accelerated contract charges were $4.1 million.

14. Employee benefit plan

The Company sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) plan for its employees (the “Retirement Savings Plan”). The Retirement Savings Plan is a voluntary contributory plan under which employees may elect to defer compensation for federal income tax purposes under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. All full-time employees age 18+ are eligible to enroll in the Retirement Savings Plan on their first day of employment. Company matching contributions begin upon employee enrollment in the Retirement Savings Plan. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company provides an employer match up to 100% on the first 1% of elective contributions and 50% on the next 5% of elective contributions. The maximum matching contribution is 3.5% of compensation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company made contributions for the benefit of employees of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to the Retirement Savings Plan. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company made contributions for the benefit of employees of $0.9 million and $2.5 million, respectively, to the Retirement Savings Plan.

15. Research and development

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded the following related to research and development expenses and capitalized internally developed software costs:

	*Three Months Ended September 30,*				*Nine Months Ended September 30,*
	*2023*		*2022*		*2023*		*2022*
Research and development expenses incurred	$	755	$	3,660	$	4,108	$	14,781
Capitalized internally developed software costs		1,939		8,393		6,676		25,603
Research and development spend, inclusive of capitalized internally developed software cost	$	2,694	$	12,053	$	10,784	$	40,384

Our research and development costs reflect certain payroll-related costs of employees directly associated with such activities and certain software subscription costs, which are included in personnel costs and other operating expenses, respectively, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Capitalized internally developed software and acquired software costs are included in fixed assets, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million related to internally developed software no longer in use. The Company does not expect to receive future economic benefit from the use of these assets and therefore, reduced the carrying amount to zero for these assets. The fair value of the impacted software was determined in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, using a cash flow valuation methodology with Level 3 inputs, primarily internal revenue forecasts. The impairment of internally developed software primarily relates to our Corporate and Other segment. The internally developed software impairments are recorded in long-lived asset impairment in the consolidated statements of operations. There were no impairments of internally developed software during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

16. Warrant liabilities

As a result of the Business Combination, the Company assumed, as of the Closing Date, Public Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 460,000 shares of our common stock and Private Placement Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 233,333 shares of our common stock. Twenty five whole warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $287.50.

The Warrants became exercisable commencing on December 4, 2021, which is one year from the closing of the initial public offering of Capitol; provided, that we maintain an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended (the “Securities Act”), covering our common stock.

Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per share of our common stock equals or exceeds $450.00

The Company may call the Public Warrants for redemption:

•

in whole and not in part;

•

at a price of $0.01 per Public Warrant;

•

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each Public Warrant holder; and

•

if, and only if, the last reported sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $450.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of common stock and equity-linked securities as described above) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends to the notice of redemption to the Public Warrant holders.

The Company will not redeem the Public Warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon a cashless exercise of the Public Warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of common stock is available throughout the 30-day redemption period, except if the Public Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per share of our common stock equals or exceeds $250.00

The Company may redeem the outstanding Public Warrants:

•

in whole and not in part;

•

at $0.10 per Public Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to exercise their Public Warrants prior to redemption and receive a number of shares based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of common stock except as otherwise described below;

•

if, and only if, the last reported sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $250.00 per share (as adjusted per stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of common stock and equity-linked securities as described above) on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the Public Warrant holders; and

•

if, and only if, the last reported sale price of common stock is less than $450.00 per share (as adjusted for stock for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and for certain issuances of common stock and equity-linked securities), the Private Placement Warrants are also concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.

Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the Public Warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis. The “fair market value” of our common stock will mean the volume-weighted average price of our common stock for the ten trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of Public Warrants. In no event will the Public Warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.014 shares of common stock per Public Warrant (subject to adjustment).

Table of Contents

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants except that the Private Placement Warrants, (i) subject to limited exceptions, are not redeemable by us, (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis and (iii) are entitled to registration rights (including the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), in each case, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees (as further described in the warrant agreement, dated as of December 1, 2020, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agreement”). If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees, they will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

On September 3, 2021, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-258942), as amended, with the SEC (which was declared effective on September 8, 2021; and the Company subsequently filed a post-effective amendment thereto, which was declared effective on March 30, 2022), which related to, among other things, the issuance of an aggregate of up to 693,333 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate values of the Public Warrants were $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, representing Public Warrants outstanding to purchase 460,000 shares of our common stock. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate values of the Private Warrants were $0.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, representing Private Warrants outstanding to purchase 233,333 shares of our common stock. The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of Warrants and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

17. Leases

The Company has operating leases consisting of office space and office equipment. Lease terms and options vary in the Company's operating leases dependent upon the underlying leased asset. We exclude options to extend or terminate a lease from our recognition as part of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities until those options are known and/or executed, as we typically do not exercise options to purchase the underlying leased asset. As of September 30, 2023, we have leases with remaining terms of 30 days to 4 years, some of which may include no options for renewal and others with options to extend the lease terms from 1 year to 5 years. The components of our operating leases were as follows:

	*Nine Months Ended September 30,*
	*2023*			*2022*
Components of lease expense:
Operating lease expense	$	1,822		$	2,741
Less sublease income		(272	)		(13	)
Net lease expense		1,550			2,728

Cash flow information related to leases:

Less imputed interest		(1,741	)		(1,395	)
Lease liabilities	$	9,038		$	8,102

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $0.0 million and $0.3 million in impairments in continuing operations on its operating lease right-of-use assets due to vacating locations as a result of a smaller workforce. The right-of-use asset impairments were recorded in long-lived asset impairment in the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $2.5 million and $3.3 million in impairments in discontinuing operations on its operating lease right-of-use assets due to exiting the Local Component. The right-of-use asset impairments were determined by comparing the fair value of the impacted right-of-use asset to the carrying value of the asset as of the impairment measurement date, as required under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the right-of-use asset was based on the estimated sublease income taking into consideration the time period it will take to obtain a sublessor, the uncertainty of obtaining a sublessor, vacancy rates in the associated market, and the sublease rate. The right-of-use asset impairments in continuing operations relate to our Corporate and Other segment. There were no impairments of operating lease right-of-use assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

18. Discontinued Operations

In the second and third quarters of 2023, the Company sold its assets used in or related to the Company’s Local Component. In conjunction with the sale of the Local Component, on June 9, 2023, the Company sold a title plant in Texas for a total sale price of $7.6 million. Costs to sell the title plant were $0.7 million. The sale of the title plant resulted in a realized gain of $3.8 million recorded in the gain (loss) on sales of discontinued operations line on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. With the execution of these agreements, the Company no longer has operations related to our previous Local retail branch footprint. With the final execution of these agreements during the third quarter of 2023, the Company determined that this represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, which triggered discontinued operations presentation, in accordance with ASC 205-20-45, for the Company's Local Component within its previous Distribution segment. Refer to Note 3 for additional details on the divestiture transactions.

The assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations, including assets and liabilities sold in the Local Sales, assets separately disposed and remaining Local Component assets and liabilities, have been presented separately in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Doma should be read together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, together with the related notes thereto, contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”), as well as the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, together with related notes thereto, contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”). This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures and information contained in “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Annual Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” or in other parts of the Annual Report. Certain amounts may not foot due to rounding. All forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based on information available to us as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances, except as required by law.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “company,” “Company,” “Doma,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to Doma Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Capitol Investment Corp. V) and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Capitol” refer to our predecessor company prior to the consummation of the Business Combination. References to “Old Doma” refer to Old Doma prior to the Business Combination and to States Title Holding, Inc. (“States Title”), the wholly owned subsidiary of Doma, upon the consummation of the Business Combination.

Overview

Doma was founded in 2016 to focus top-tier data scientists, product managers, and engineers on building game-changing technology to completely reimagine the residential real estate closing process. Our approach to the title process is driven by our innovative platform, Doma Intelligence. It provides a revolutionary new real estate closing platform that seeks to eliminate laborious, manual tasks involved in underwriting title insurance, performing core escrow functions, generating closing documentation and getting documents signed and recorded. The platform harnesses the power of data analytics, machine learning and natural language processing, which will enable us to deliver a more affordable and faster transaction. Doma’s machine intelligence algorithms are being trained and optimized on 30 years of historical anonymized transaction data allowing us to make underwriting decisions in less than a minute and significantly reduce the time, effort and cost of facilitating the entire closing process.

Discontinued Operations

Starting in the second quarter of 2023 and finalized in the third quarter of 2023, the Company sold its assets used in or related to the Company’s title insurance agency business operated through retail title offices (the Company’s ‘Local Component’). With the execution of these agreements, the Company no longer has operations related to our previous Local retail branch footprint. The Company determined that the execution of these agreements represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, which triggered discontinued operations presentation, in accordance with ASC 205-20-45, for the Company's Local Component within its previous Distribution segment. All periods presented have been revised to show results from continuing and discontinued operations, unless otherwise noted. For more information, refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 18 "Discontinued Operations."

Our Business Model

Our primary business activity is the issuance of residential and commercial title insurance on purchase and refinance transactions. We operate and report our business through two reporting segments, “Underwriting” and “Corporate and Other.” See “—Basis of Presentation” below.

Our Underwriting segment reflects the sale and execution of our underwriting and insurance services. These services are integrated with non-captive title and escrow agents in the market (“Third-Party Agents”) through our captive title insurance carrier. For customers sourced through the Third-Party Agents channel, we retain a portion of the title premium (approximately 16% - 18%) in exchange for underwriting risk to our balance sheet. The Third-Party Agents channel also includes the title underwriting and insurance services we provide to Lennar, a related party, for its home builder transactions.

Our Corporate and Other segment reflects our operations related to the execution of our title, escrow and settlement services through our Doma Enterprise channel. Our Doma Enterprise channel targets partnerships with national lenders and mortgage originators that maintain centralized lending operations ("Direct Agents"). Once an Enterprise partnership has been established, we integrate our Doma Intelligence platform with the partner’s production systems, to enable frictionless order origination and fulfillment. In addition, Corporate and Other includes investing activity related to our investment portfolio held outside of Underwriting.

Our expenses generally consist of direct fulfillment expenses related to closing a transaction and insuring the risk, customer acquisition costs related to acquiring new business, and other operating expenses as described below:

•

Direct fulfillment expenses – comprised of direct labor and direct non-labor expenses. Direct labor expenses refer to payroll costs associated with employees who directly contribute to the issuance of a title insurance policy. Some examples of direct labor expenses include underwriting, escrow and closing services related to our Enterprise channel, and customer service. Direct non-labor expenses refer to non-payroll expenses that are closely linked with underwriting policies, such as provision for claims, title examination expense, office supplies, and premium and other related taxes.

•

Customer acquisition costs – comprised of sales payroll, sales commissions, customer success payroll, and sales-related travel and entertainment.

•

Other operating expenses – all other expenses that do not directly contribute to the fulfillment or acquisition of a title insurance policy are considered other operating expenses. This category is predominately comprised of research and development costs, corporate support expenses, occupancy, and other general and administrative expenses.

We expect to continue to invest in the instant underwriting capabilities of our Doma Intelligence platform as well as organic growth opportunities in order to remain competitive with existing large-scale industry incumbents who are well financed and have significant resources to defend their existing market positions. Over time, we plan to use our cash flows to invest in customer acquisition, research and development, and new product offerings, to further improve revenue growth and accelerate the elimination of the friction and expense of closing a residential real estate transaction.

Basis of Presentation

We report results for our two operating segments:

•

Underwriting – our Underwriting segment reflects the results of our title insurance underwriting business, including policies referred primarily through our Third-Party Agents channel. The referring agents retain approximately 82% - 84% of the policy premiums in exchange for their services. These retention rates vary by state and agent.

Corporate and Other – our Corporate and Other segment includes our operations related to the execution of our title, escrow and settlement services through our Doma Enterprise channel. Our Doma Enterprise channel targets partnerships with national lenders and mortgage originators that maintain centralized lending operations ("Direct Agents"). Once an Enterprise partnership has been established, we integrate our Doma Intelligence platform with the partner’s production systems, to enable frictionless order origination and fulfillment. Substantially all Doma Enterprise orders are underwritten by Doma. In addition, Corporate and Other includes investing activity related to our investment portfolio held outside of Underwriting.

Costs are allocated to the segments to arrive at adjusted gross profit, our segment measure of profit and loss. Our accounting policies for segments are the same as those applied to our consolidated financial statements, except as described below under “—Key Components of Revenues and Expenses.” Inter-segment revenues and expenses are eliminated in consolidation. See Note 7 in our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of our segment results and a reconciliation between segment adjusted gross profit and our loss from continuing operations before income taxes.

Significant Events and Transactions

The Business Combination

On the Closing Date, Capitol consummated the Business Combination with Old Doma, pursuant to the Agreement. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Old Doma changed its name to States Title Holding, Inc., Capitol changed its name to Doma Holdings, Inc. (“Doma”) and Old Doma became a wholly owned subsidiary of Doma. Doma continues the existing business operations of Old Doma as a publicly traded company. Refer to Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details on the Business Combination.

As a result of the Business Combination, we became the operating successor to an SEC-registered and New York Stock Exchange-listed shell company. Becoming public has required us to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and practices. Also, we incur annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal, and administrative resources.

Macroeconomic Trends

The on-going macroeconomic trends impacting the residential real estate market include a shortage in the supply of homes for sale, increasing home prices, rising mortgage interest rates, inflation, disrupted labor markets and geopolitical uncertainties.

We operate in the real estate industry and our business volumes are directly impacted by market trends for mortgage refinancing transactions, existing real estate purchase transactions, and new real estate purchase transactions, particularly in the residential segment of the market. Our success depends on a high volume of residential and, to a lesser extent, commercial real estate transactions, throughout the markets in which we operate.

Through 2023, to combat inflation, the Federal Reserve raised the benchmark interest rate by a total of 100 basis points. Average interest rates for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage rose to 7.20% as of September 2023 as compared to 6.11% for the corresponding period of 2022. As interest rates rise, the outlook on refinance transactions continues to decline.

Demand for mortgages tends to correlate closely with changes in interest rates, meaning that our order trends have been, and will likely be, impacted by future changes in interest rates. However, we believe that our current, low market share and disruptive approach to title insurance, escrow, and closing services will enable us to gain market share within markets in which we operate, which in turn should mitigate the risk to our revenue growth trends relative to industry incumbents.

We continue to monitor economic and regulatory developments closely as we navigate the volatility and uncertainty created by the pandemic and the subsequent macroeconomic activity.

Reverse stock split

On June 29, 2023, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to effect a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and a corresponding adjustment to its authorized capital stock, effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on June 29, 2023 (the “Effective Time”). All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 25 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were automatically converted into one share of issued and outstanding common stock. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to receive fractional shares of common stock were entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (a) the closing price per share of the common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange as of the first trading day following the Effective Time, by (b) the fraction of one share owned by the stockholder.

Proportionate adjustments were made to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or vesting of all stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance restricted stock units or market-based awards (the “Stock-Based Awards”) and warrants outstanding at the Effective Time, which resulted in a proportional decrease in the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise or vesting of such Stock-Based Awards and warrants. In the case of stock options and warrants, proportionate adjustments also included a proportional increase in the exercise price of such stock options and warrants. In addition, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan were proportionately reduced.

(1)

Revenue is comprised of (i) net premiums written, (ii) escrow, other title-related fees and other, and (iii) investment, dividend and other income. Net loss is made up of the components of revenue and expenses. For more information about measures appearing in our consolidated income statements, refer to “—Key Components of Revenue and Expenses—Revenue” below.

(2)

Gross profit, calculated in accordance with GAAP, is calculated as total revenue, minus premiums retained by agents, direct labor expense (including mainly personnel expense for certain employees involved in the direct fulfillment of policies) and direct non-labor expense (including mainly title examination expense, provision for claims, and depreciation and amortization). In our consolidated income statements, depreciation and amortization is recorded under the “other operating expenses” caption.

(3)	Retained premiums and fees, adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for additional information and reconciliations of these measures to the most closely comparable GAAP financial measures.

Table of Contents

Retained premiums and fees

Retained premiums and fees, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as total revenue under GAAP minus premiums retained by agents. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of our retained premiums and fees to gross profit, the most closely comparable GAAP measure, and additional information about the limitations of our non-GAAP measures.

Our business strategy is focused on leveraging our Doma Intelligence platform to provide an overall improved customer and referral partner experience and to drive time and expense efficiencies. In our Third-Party Agents channel, we provide our underwriting expertise and balance sheet to insure the risk on policies referred by such Third-Party Agents and, for that service, we typically receive approximately 16% - 18% of the premium for the policy we underwrite. As such, we use retained premiums and fees, which is net of the impact of premiums retained by Third-Party Agents, as an important measure of the earning power of our business and our future growth trends, and believe it is useful to investors for the same reasons.

Adjusted gross profit

Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as gross profit (loss) under GAAP, adjusted to exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of our adjusted gross profit to gross profit, the most closely comparable GAAP measure and additional information about the limitations of our non-GAAP measures.

Management views adjusted gross profit as an important indicator of our underlying profitability and efficiency. As we generate more business that is serviced through our Doma Intelligence platform, we expect to reduce fulfillment costs as our direct labor expense per order continues to decline, and we expect the adjusted gross profit per transaction to grow faster than retained premiums and fees per transaction over the long term.

Ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees

Ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees, a non-GAAP measure, expressed as a percentage, is calculated by dividing adjusted gross profit by retained premiums and fees. Both the numerator and denominator are net of the impact of premiums retained by Third-Party Agents because that is a cost related to our Underwriting segment over which we have limited control, as Third-Party Agents customarily retain approximately 82% - 84% of the premiums related to a title insurance policy referral pursuant to the terms of long-term contracts.

We view the ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees as an important indicator of our operating efficiency and the impact of our machine-learning capabilities, and believe it is useful to investors for the same reasons.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted to exclude the impact of net loss from discontinued operations, stock-based compensation, severance and interim salary costs, goodwill impairment, long-lived asset impairment, accelerated contract expense, change in fair value of Local Sales Deferred Earnout, and the change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities. See “—Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of our adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most closely comparable GAAP measure and additional information about the limitations of our non-GAAP measures.

We review adjusted EBITDA as an important measure of our recurring and underlying financial performance, and believe it is useful to investors for the same reason.

Key Components of Revenues and Expenses

Revenues

Net premiums written

We generate net premiums by underwriting title insurance policies and recognize premiums in full upon the closing of the underlying transaction. For some of our Third-Party Agents, we also accrue premium revenue for title insurance policies we estimate to have been issued in the current period but reported to us by the Third-Party Agent in a subsequent period. See “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates— Accrued net premiums written from Third-Party Agent referrals” below for further explanation of this accrual. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the average time lag between the issuing of these policies by our Third-Party Agents and the reporting of these policies or premiums to us has been approximately three months. Net premiums written is inclusive of the portion of premiums retained by Third-Party Agents, which is recorded as an expense, as described below.

To reduce the risk associated with our underwritten insurance policies, we utilize reinsurance programs to limit our maximum loss exposure. Under our reinsurance treaties, we cede the premiums on the underlying policies in exchange for a ceding commission from the reinsurer and our net premiums written exclude such ceded premiums.

Our principal reinsurance quota share agreement covers instantly underwritten policies from refinance and home equity line of credit transactions. Under this contract we cede 25% of the written premium on such instantly underwritten policies, up to a total reinsurance coverage limit of $80.0 million in premiums reinsured, after which we retain 100% of the written premium on instantly underwritten policies. Refer to Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements above for additional details on our reinsurance programs.

Escrow, other title-related fees and other

Escrow fees and other title-related fees are charged for managing the closing of real estate transactions, including the processing of funds on behalf of the transaction participants, gathering and recording the required closing documents, providing notary services, and other real estate or title-related activities. Other fees relate to various ancillary services we provide, including fees for rendering a cashier’s check, document preparation fees, homeowner’s association letter fees, inspection fees, lien letter fees and wire fees. We also recognize ceding commissions received in connection with reinsurance treaties, to the extent the amount of such ceding commissions exceeds reinsurance-related costs.

This revenue item is most directly associated with our Enterprise channel within our Corporate and Other segment. For segment-level reporting, agent premiums retained by our Enterprise channel in our Corporate and Other segment are recorded as revenue under the “escrow, other title-related fees and other” caption of our segment income statements, while our Underwriting segment records a corresponding expense for insurance policies issued by us. The impact of these internal transactions is eliminated upon consolidation.

Investment, dividends and other income

Investment, dividends and other income are mainly generated from our investment portfolio. We primarily invest in fixed income securities, mainly composed of corporate debt obligations, certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasuries, foreign government securities and mortgage loans.

Expenses

Premiums retained by agents

When customers are referred to us and we underwrite a policy, the referring agent retains a significant portion of the premium, which typically amounts to approximately 82% - 84% of the premium. The portion of premiums retained by agents is recorded as an expense. These referral expenses relate exclusively to our Underwriting segment.

Table of Contents

For segment-level reporting, premiums retained by our Direct Agents (which are recorded as Corporate and Other segment revenue) are recorded as part of “premiums retained by agents” expense for our Underwriting segment. The impact of these internal transactions is eliminated upon consolidation.

Title examination expense

Title examination expense is incurred in connection with the search and examination of public information prior to the issuance of title insurance policies.

Provision for claims

Provision for claims expense is comprised of three components: IBNR losses, known claims loss and loss adjustment expenses and escrow-related losses.

IBNR is a loss reserve that primarily reflects the sum of expected losses for unreported claims. The expense is calculated by applying a rate (the loss provision rate) to total title insurance premiums. The loss provision rate is determined throughout the year based in part upon an assessment performed by an independent actuarial firm utilizing generally accepted actuarial methods. The assessment also takes account of industry trends, the regulatory environment and geographic considerations and is updated during the year based on developments. This loss provision rate is set to provide for losses on current year policies. Due to our long claim exposure, our provision for claims periodically includes amounts of adverse or positive claims development on policies issued in prior years, when claims on such policies are higher or lower than initially expected.

Based on the risk profile of premium vintages over time and based upon the projections of an independent actuarial firm, we build or release reserves related to our older policies. Our IBNR may increase as a proportion of our revenue as we continue to increase the proportion of our business serviced through our Doma Intelligence platform, though we believe it will decrease over the long term as our predictive machine intelligence technology produces improved results.

Known claims loss and loss adjustment expense reserves is an expense that reflects the best estimate of the remaining cost to resolve a claim, based on the information available at the time. In practice, most claims do not settle for the initial known claims provision; rather, as new information is developed during the course of claims administration, the initial estimates are revised, sometimes downward and sometimes upward. This additional development is provided for in the actuarial projection of IBNR, but it is not allocable to specific claims. Actual costs that are incurred in the claims administration are booked to loss adjustment expense, which is primarily comprised of legal expenses associated with investigating and settling a claim.

Escrow-related losses are primarily attributable to clerical errors that arise during the escrow process and caused by the settlement agent.

Personnel costs

Personnel costs include base salaries, employee benefits, bonuses paid to employees, stock-based compensation, payroll taxes and severance. This expense is primarily driven by the average number of employees and our hiring activities in a given period.

In our presentation and reconciliation of segment results and our calculation of gross profit, we classify personnel costs as either direct or indirect expenses, reflecting the activities performed by each employee. Direct personnel costs relate to employees whose job function is directly related to our fulfillment activities, including underwriters, closing agents, escrow agents, funding agents, and title and curative agents, and are included in the calculation of our segment adjusted gross profit. Indirect personnel costs relate to employees whose roles do not directly support our transaction fulfillment activities, including sales agents, training specialists and customer success agents, segment management, research and development and other information technology personnel, and corporate support staff.

Table of Contents

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses are comprised of occupancy, maintenance and utilities, product taxes (for example, state taxes on premiums written), professional fees (including legal, audit and other third-party consulting costs), software licenses and sales tools, travel and entertainment costs, and depreciation and amortization, among other costs

Long-lived asset impairment

Long-lived asset impairment consists of non-cash impairment charges relating to operating lease right-of-use assets, internally developed software, and other fixed assets. We review these long-lived assets if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. If the carrying value of these assets exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.

Loss from discontinued operations

Loss from discontinued operations consists of the operating loss from the discontinued Local Component and the excess carrying amount of the Local Component sold business’s assets and liabilities over the fair value of any consideration received less costs to sell.

Change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities

Change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities consists of unrealized gains and losses as a result of recording our Warrants and Sponsor Covered Shares to fair value at the end of each reporting period

Income tax expense

Although we are in a consolidated net loss position and report our federal income taxes as a consolidated tax group, we incur state income taxes in certain jurisdictions where we have profitable operations. Additionally, we incur mandatory minimum state income taxes in certain jurisdictions. Also, we have recognized deferred tax assets but have offset them with a full valuation allowance, reflecting substantial uncertainty as to their recoverability in future periods. Until we report at least three years of profitability, we may not be able to realize the tax benefits of these deferred tax assets.

Revenue

Net premiums written. Net premiums written decreased by $20.8 million, or 22%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by a 82% decrease in premiums from our Direct Agents channel and a 10% decrease in premiums from our Third-Party Agents channel. Net premiums written decreased by $79.6 million, or 27%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by a 69% decrease in premiums from our Direct Agents channel and a 17% decrease in premiums from our Third-Party Agents channel.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, Direct Agents premium decline was driven by the discontinuing of the Local Component. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the decrease in premiums from our Third-Party Agents channel was driven by an overall decrease in market activity, specifically in the refinance market, resulting from the rising interest rate environment, partially offset by an increase in premiums associated with new home buildings that closed during the periods.

Escrow, other title-related fees and other. Escrow, other title-related fees and other decreased $1.8 million, or 68%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by the corresponding closed order decline of 91%. The decline in closed order activity was partially offset by higher search and title exam fees in our Underwriting operations. Escrow, other title-related fees and other decreased $7.7 million, or 75%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by the corresponding closed order decline of 90%. The decline in closed order activity was partially offset by higher search and title exam fees in our Underwriting operations.

Table of Contents

Investment, dividend and other income. Investment, dividend and other income increased $0.9 million, or 120%, and $2.6 million, or 153%, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a larger invested asset base and the higher interest rate environment creating higher returns on invested assets.

Expenses

Premiums retained by agents. Premiums retained by agents decreased by $15.1 million, or 20%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by $58.2 million, or 24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year. These movements were driven principally by decreases in premium in our Third-Party Agents channel and our discontinued Local Component. There was no material change in the average commissions paid to our Third-Party Agents.

Title examination expense. Title examination expense decreased by $0.8 million, or 46%, and by $3.9 million, or 57%, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the corresponding declines in net premium written and escrow, other title-related fees and other revenue.

Provision for claims. Provision for claims decreased by $0.8 million, or 20%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a reduction in the provision for claims related to the current year due to the corresponding decrease in premiums written. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, reserve releases related to prior period policies were $0.2 million compared to reserve releases of $0.9 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The provision for claims, expressed as a percentage of net premiums written, was 4.5% and 4.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Provision for claims decreased by $1.9 million, or 14%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a reduction in the provision for claims related to the current year due to the corresponding decrease in premiums written. This was offset by an increase in reserve development for claims incurred from prior period business. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, reserve increases related to prior period policies were $1.0 million compared to reserve releases of $3.3 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. The provision for claims, expressed as a percentage of net premiums written, was 5.4% and 4.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Personnel costs. Personnel costs decreased by $20.8 million, or 57%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by $73.8 million, or 56%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to decreases in direct and indirect labor, corporate support and customer acquisition expenses from previously disclosed workforce reduction plans and the overall declines in revenue. The Company’s personnel costs benefited during the quarter as a result of the workforce reduction plans.

Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by $4.7 million, or 29%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by $15.8 million, or 31%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to corresponding decreases in personnel and revenues. The Company requires less operating expenses to support the lower revenue volume and personnel footprint. Declines in outside professional service fees, occupancy, IT hardware and software, travel and entertainment, and premium taxes resulting from the overall reduction in revenue and personnel all drove the decline in operating expenses.

Long-lived asset impairment. Long-lived asset impairment increased by $1.0 million and $1.4 million in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to impairment of certain internally developed software and our operating lease right-of-use assets and related fixed assets related to vacating locations as a result of a smaller workforce.

Change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities. The change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities (as defined in Note 3) decreased by $1.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by $20.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to changes in the inputs to the valuation of the liabilities, primarily the Company’s declining stock price. In 2022, the change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities was a benefit resulting from a decline in the stock price during that period. The change in fair value of Warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities was a smaller benefit in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 due to the Company’s relatively lower warrant and stock price.

Table of Contents

Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $1.9, or 54%, in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and by $4.2 million, or 40%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to a higher amount of debt outstanding, which is a result of the paid in kind interest expense on the $150.0 million Senior Debt facility that was funded during the first quarter of 2021.

Retained premiums and fees

Retained premiums and fees decreased by $6.6 million, or 30%, and $ 26.6 million, or 37%, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year, driven by title policy declines across the Direct Agent and Third-Party Agent channels, partially offset by an increase in premiums associated with new home buildings that closed during the periods.

Adjusted gross profit

Adjusted gross profit decreased by $0.3 million, or 5%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the corresponding declines in retained premiums and fees and an increase in the provision for claims ratio partially offset by lower direct labor expenses as a percentage of revenue. Adjusted gross profit increased $ 2.6 million, or 20%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to lower direct labor expenses as a percentage of retained premiums and fees, and lower title exam and closing costs as a percentage of retained premiums and fees. Partially offsetting these factors were declines in retained premiums and fees and an increase in the provision for claims ratio.

Ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees

The ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees increased 10 percentage points and 16 percentage points during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year due to lower direct labor as a result of the workforce reduction actions taken during the second half of 2022 and in the third quarter of 2023. Offsetting impacts to the ratio of adjusted gross profit to retained premiums and fees during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were increases in the provision for claims ratio and premium taxes as a percentage of retained premiums and fees.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA improved by $17.2 million to negative $5.3 million and by $ 59.0 million to negative $30.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, due to the reduction in personnel and other operating expenses that are a direct result of the workforce reduction actions taken during the second half of 2022 and the third quarter of 2023 and the Company's efforts to close its discontinued operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The non-GAAP financial measures described in this Quarterly Report should be considered only as supplements to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP results. These measures, retained premiums and fees, adjusted gross profit, and adjusted EBITDA, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and are therefore not necessarily indicative of our trends or profitability in accordance with GAAP. These measures exclude or otherwise adjust for certain cost items that are required by GAAP. Further, these measures may be defined and calculated differently than similarly-titled measures reported by other companies, making it difficult to compare our results with the results of other companies. We caution investors against undue reliance on our non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for our results in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to: (i) monitor and evaluate the growth and performance of our business operations; (ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations; (iii) facilitate external comparisons of the results of our overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures or operating histories; (iv) review and assess the performance of our management team and other employees; and (v) prepare budgets and evaluate strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our business operations, including our working capital and capital expenditure needs and other commitments. Our recurring working capital requirements relate mainly to our cash operating costs. Our capital expenditure requirements consist mainly of software development related to our Doma Intelligence platform.

We had $80.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, $24.2 million in held-to-maturity debt securities, and $57.3 million in available-for-sale debt securities as of September 30, 2023. We believe our cash on hand, held-to-maturity debt securities, and the available-for-sale debt securities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of at least 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report.

We may need additional cash due to changing business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated regulatory developments and competitive pressures. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing.

Debt

Senior secured credit agreement

In December 2020, Old Doma entered into a loan and security agreement with Hudson Structured Capital Management Ltd. (“HSCM”), providing for a $150.0 million senior secured term loan (“Senior Debt”), which was fully funded by the lenders, which are affiliates of HSCM, at its principal face value on January 29, 2021 (the “Funding Date”) and matures on the fifth anniversary of the Funding Date. The Senior Debt bears interest at a rate of 11.25% per annum, of which 5.0% is payable in cash in arrears and the remaining 6.25% accrues to the outstanding principal balance on a PIK basis. Interest is payable or compounded, as applicable, quarterly. Principal prepayments on the Senior Debt are permitted, subject to a premium, which declines from 4% in 2023 to zero in 2024.

The Senior Debt is secured by a first-priority pledge and security interest in substantially all of the assets of our wholly owned subsidiary States Title (which represents substantially all of our assets), including the assets of any of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries (in each case, subject to customary exclusions, including the exclusion of regulated insurance company subsidiaries). The Senior Debt is subject to customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limits on the incurrence of debt and restrictions on acquisitions, sales of assets, dividends and certain restricted payments. The Senior Debt is also subject to two financial maintenance covenants, related to liquidity and revenues. The liquidity covenant requires States Title to have at least $20.0 million of liquidity, calculated as of the last day of each month, as the sum of (i) our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and (ii) the aggregate unused and available portion of any working capital or other revolving credit facility. The revenue covenant, which is tested as of the last day of each fiscal year, requires that States Title’s consolidated GAAP revenue for the year to be greater than $130.0 million. The Senior Debt is subject to customary events of default and cure rights. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, States Title is in compliance with all Senior Debt covenants.

Upon funding, Old Doma issued penny warrants to affiliates of HSCM equal to 1.35% of Old Doma’s fully diluted shares. The warrants were net exercised on the Closing Date and such affiliates of HSCM received the right to receive approximately 0.2 million shares of our common stock.

On May 19, 2023, Old Doma and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, entered into the third amendment to the Senior Debt agreement (the “Third Amendment”). The Third Amendment amends certain mandatory prepayment provisions related to the disposition of assets by Old Doma or any of its subsidiaries such that Old Doma is required, within five business days following the receipt of net cash proceeds from dispositions in excess of $750,000 in any fiscal year (other than certain permitted dispositions), to repay the outstanding principal amount of term loan borrowings in an amount equal to 100% of such excess net cash proceeds received by Old Doma or any of its subsidiaries from such dispositions, unless HSCM, as agent, otherwise agrees. Approximately two-thirds of the net cash proceeds from the Local Sales and from the sale of the title plant in Texas described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements were used to repay $10.5 million of the Senior Debt. The remaining net cash proceeds from the Local Sales and from the sale of the title plant in Texas described in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements are recorded as a receivable from HSCM payable to us upon the occurrence of certain strategic events.

Other commitments and contingencies

Our commitments for leases, related to our office space and equipment, amounted to $20.3 million as of September 30, 2023 of which $1.7 million is payable in 2023. Refer to Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of our future commitments. Our headquarters lease expires in 2024. As of September 30, 2023, we did not have any other material commitments for cash expenditures.

We also administer escrow deposits as a service to customers, a substantial portion of which are held at third-party financial institutions. Such deposits are not reflected on our balance sheet, but we could be contingently liable for them under certain circumstances (for example, if we dispose of escrowed assets). Such contingent liabilities have not materially impacted our results of operations or financial condition to date and are not expected to do so in the near term.

Cash flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities		(10,283	)		330

Table of Contents

Operating activities

In the first nine months of 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $67.4 million driven by the net loss of $103.6 million and cash paid for accrued expenses of $13.2 million. This was offset by changes in trade and other receivables of $6.2 million, and non-cash costs including stock-based compensation expense of 11.4 million, depreciation and amortization of $9.2 million, loss on sales of discontinued operations of $7.0 million, and long-lived asset impairment of $5.0 million.

In the first nine months of 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $139.2 million driven by the net loss of $192.8 million, cash paid for accrued expenses of $18.1 million and non-cash costs relating to the change in the fair value of warrant and Sponsor Covered Shares liabilities of $20.5 million. This was offset by changes in prepaid expenses, deposits and other assets of $3.1 million and the liability for loss and loss adjustments expenses of $3.5 million and non-cash costs including depreciation and amortization of $11.2 million and stock-based compensation expense of $27.8 million.

Investing activities

Our capital expenditures have historically consisted mainly of costs incurred in the development of the Doma Intelligence platform. Our other investing activities generally consist of transactions in fixed maturity investment securities to provide regular interest payments.

In the first nine months of 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $76.6 million, and reflected $69.3 million of proceeds from the maturity of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale investments and proceeds from the sales of discontinued operations, net of cash disposed and working capital adjustments, and dividends from title plants of $15.9 million. Cash paid for fixed assets was $7.3 million in the same period, largely consisting of technology development costs related to the Doma Intelligence platform.

In the first nine months of 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $55.6 million, and reflected $4.0 million and $49.6 million of purchases of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, respectively, offset by $23.8 million of proceeds from the sale of held-to-maturity investments. Cash paid for fixed assets was $29.1 million in the same period, largely consisting of technology development costs related to the Doma Intelligence platform.

Financing activities

In the first nine months of 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $10.3 million driven by repayments on the Company's senior secured credit agreement of $10.5 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was immaterial in the first nine months of 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make several judgments, estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of revenue and expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our significant estimates on an ongoing basis, including, but not limited to, liability for loss and loss adjustment expenses, goodwill, accrued net premiums written from Third-Party Agent referrals, and the Sponsor Covered Shares liability. We consider an accounting judgment, estimate or assumption to be critical when (1) the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and (2) the use of different judgments, estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our annual audited consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting estimates are described below.

Liability for loss and loss adjustment expenses

Our liability for loss and loss adjustment expenses include mainly reserves for known claims as well as reserves for IBNR claims. Each known claim is reserved based on our estimate of the costs required to settle the claim.

We estimate the loss provision rate at the beginning of each year and reassess the rate at midyear as of June 30 of every year to ensure that the resulting sum of the known claim reserves, IBNR loss, and loss adjustment expense reserves included in our balance sheet together reflect our best estimate of the total costs required to settle all IBNR and known claims. However, our estimates could prove to be inadequate. Changes in expected ultimate losses and corresponding loss rates for recent policy years are considered likely and could result in a material adjustment to the IBNR reserves.

Table of Contents

IBNR is a loss reserve that primarily reflects the sum of expected losses for unreported claims. Our IBNR reserves generally relate to the five most recent policy years. For policy years at the early stage of development (generally the last five years), IBNR is generally estimated using a combination of expected loss rate and multiplicative loss development factor calculations. For more mature policy years, IBNR generally is estimated using multiplicative loss development factor calculations. The expected loss rate method estimates IBNR by applying an expected loss rate to total title insurance premiums and escrow fees, and adjusting for policy year maturity using estimated loss development patterns. Multiplicative loss development factor calculations estimate IBNR by applying factors derived from loss development patterns to losses realized to date. The expected loss rate and loss development patterns are based on historical experience. Due to our long claim exposure, our provision for claims periodically includes amounts of adverse or positive claims development on policies issued in prior years, when claims on such policies are higher or lower than initially expected. The provision rate on prior year policies will continue to change as actual experience on those specific policy years develop. Changes in the loss provision rate for recent policy years are considered likely and could result in a material adjustment to the IBNR reserves.

The estimates used require considerable judgment and are established as management’s best estimate of future outcomes, however, the amount of IBNR reserved based on these estimates could ultimately prove to be inadequate to cover actual future claims experience. We continually monitor for any events and/or circumstances that arise during the year which may indicate that the assumptions used to record the provision for claims estimate requires reassessment.

Our total loss reserve as of September 30, 2023 amounted to $82.5 million, which we believe, based on historical claims experience and actuarial analyses, is adequate to cover claim losses resulting from pending and future claims for policies issued through September 30, 2023.

A summary of the Company’s loss reserves is as follows:

	September 30, 2023				December 31, 2022
	($ in thousands)
Known title claims	$	7,190	9	%	$	7,134	9	%
IBNR title claims		75,325	91	%		74,739	91	%
Total loss reserves	$	82,515	100	%	$	81,873	100	%

We continually review and adjust our reserve estimates to reflect loss experience and any new information that becomes available.

Goodwill

We have significant goodwill on our balance sheet related to acquisitions, as goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition price over the fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is tested and reviewed annually for impairment on October 1 of each year, and between annual tests if events or circumstances arise that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any one of our reporting units below its respective carrying amount. In addition, an interim impairment test may be completed upon a triggering event or when there is a reorganization of reporting structure or disposal of all or a portion of a reporting unit. As of September 30, 2023, we had $23.4 million of goodwill, relating to the North American Title Acquisition, which related to the Underwriting reporting unit.

Table of Contents

In performing our annual goodwill impairment test, we first perform a qualitative assessment, which requires that we consider significant estimates and assumptions regarding macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, changes in management or key personnel, changes in strategy, changes in customers, changes in the composition or carrying amount of a reporting unit or other factors that have the potential to impact fair value. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting units are greater than the carrying amounts, then the quantitative goodwill impairment test is not performed, as goodwill is not considered to be impaired. However, if we determine that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not to be less than its carrying value, then a quantitative assessment is performed. For the quantitative assessment, the determination of estimated fair value of our reporting units requires us to make assumptions about future discounted cash flows, including profit margins, long-term forecasts, discount rates and terminal growth rates and, if possible, a comparable market transaction model. The Company believes that its procedures for estimating future cash flows for each reporting unit are reasonable and consistent with market conditions as of the testing date. If the markets that impact the Company’s business continue to deteriorate, the Company could recognize further goodwill impairment. If, based upon the quantitative assessment, the reporting unit fair value is less than the carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is recorded equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill and its fair value, not to exceed the carrying value of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit, and a corresponding impairment loss is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

We did not identify any events, changes in circumstances, or triggering events since the performance of our last goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2022 that would require us to perform an interim goodwill impairment test during the quarter.

Accrued net premiums written from Third-Party Agent referrals

We recognize revenues on title insurance policies issued by Third-Party Agents when notice of issuance is received from Third-Party Agents, which is generally when cash payment is received. In addition, we estimate and accrue for revenues on policies sold but not reported by Third-Party Agents as of the relevant balance sheet closing date. This accrual is based on historical transactional volume data for title insurance policies that have closed and were not reported before the relevant balance sheet closing, as well as trends in our operations and in the title and housing industries. There could be variability in the amount of this accrual from period to period and amounts subsequently reported to us by Third-Party Agents may differ from the estimated accrual recorded in the preceding period. If the amount of revenue subsequently reported to us by Third-Party Agents is higher or lower than our estimate, we record the difference in revenue in the period in which it is reported. The time lag between the closing of transactions by Third-Party Agents and the reporting of policies, or premiums from policies issued by Third-Party Agents to us has been approximately three months. In addition to the premium accrual, we also record accruals for the corresponding direct expenses related to this revenue, including premiums retained by Third-Party Agents, premium taxes, and provision for claims.

Sponsor Covered Shares liability

The Sponsor Covered Shares, as described in Note 3, will become vested contingent upon the price of our common stock exceeding certain thresholds or upon some strategic events, which include events that are not indexed to our common stock.

We obtained a third-party valuation of the Sponsor Covered Shares as of December 31, 2022 using the Monte Carlo simulation methodology and based upon market inputs regarding stock price, dividend yield, expected term, volatility and risk-free rate. The share price represents the trading price as of each valuation date. The expected dividend yield is zero as we have never declared or paid cash dividends and have no current plans to do so during the expected term. The expected term represents the vesting period, which is 8.0 years. The expected volatility of 65.0% was estimated considering (i) the Doma implied volatility calculated using longest term stock option (ii) the Doma implied warrant volatility using the term of the Public and Private Warrants and (iii) median leverage adjusted (asset) volatility calculated using a set of Guideline Public Companies (“GPCs”). Volatility for the GPCs was calculated over a lookback period of 8.0 years (or longest available data for GPCs whose trading history was shorter than 8.0 years), commensurate with the contractual term of the Sponsor Covered Shares. The risk-free rate utilizes the 10-year U.S. Constant Maturity. Finally, the annual change in control probability is estimated to be 2.0%.

As of September 30, 2023, the Sponsor Covered Shares liability amounted to $0.1 million.

For information about recently issued accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing.

Table of Contents

Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election

Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Our principal market risk is interest rate risk because our results of operations can vary due to changes in interest rates. In a declining interest rate environment, we would expect our results of operations to be positively impacted by higher loan refinancing activity. However, in a rising interest rate environment, we would expect our results of operations to be negatively impacted by lower loan refinancing activity. We would expect both of these scenarios to be mitigated by home purchase loan activity. Fluctuations in interest rates may also impact the interest income earned on floating-rate investments and the fair value of our fixed-rate investments. An increase in interest rates decreases the market value of fixed-rate investments. Conversely, a decrease in interest rates increases the fair market value of fixed-rate investments.

Additionally, we analyze potential changes in the value of our investment portfolio due to the market risk factors noted above within the overall context of asset and liability management. A technique we use in the management of our investment portfolio is the calculation of duration. Our actuaries estimate the payout pattern of our reserve liabilities to determine their duration, which is the present value of the weighted average payments expressed in years. We then establish a target duration for our investment portfolio so that at any given time the estimated cash generated by the investment portfolio will closely match the estimated cash required for the payment of the related reserves or for operations. We structure the investment portfolio to meet the target duration to achieve the required cash flow, based on liquidity and market risk factors.

The Company’s debt security portfolio is subject to credit risk. For further information on the credit quality of the Company’s investment portfolio at September 30, 2023, see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company also has credit risk related to the ability of reinsurance counterparties to honor their obligations to pay the contract amounts under our reinsurance programs. For information on our reinsurance programs, see Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated 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”)) as of September 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is, or may become, involved in various pending or threatened litigation matters related to our operations, some of which may include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. For our business, customary litigation includes, but is not limited to, cases related to title and escrow claims, for which we make provisions through our loss reserves. Further, ordinary course litigation may include class action and purported class action lawsuits.

For additional information regarding legal proceedings, see Part I, Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Annual Report”). See also the information set forth in Note 12 “Legal Matters” contained in Part I, Item 1 “Financial Information” of this Quarterly Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report include the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Annual Report other than the additional risk factor described below. We may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, which may also impair our business or financial condition.

Our workforce reductions undertaken to re-balance our cost structure may not achieve our intended outcome.

We incur substantial costs to implement restructuring plans, and our restructuring activities may subject us to litigation risk and expenses. Our past restructuring actions do not provide assurance that additional restructuring plans will not be required or implemented in the future. Further, restructuring plans may have other consequences, such as attrition beyond our planned workforce reductions, a negative impact on employee morale and productivity or our ability to attract or retain highly skilled employees. As a result, our restructuring plans may affect our revenue and other operating results in the future.
