Explanatory Notes

Basis of Presentation

• This document should be read in conjunction with other documents filed by Validus Holdings, Ltd. (“Validus” or the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

• All financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, certain information contained herein relating to the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is derived from or agrees to audited financial statements. Unless otherwise noted, dollar amounts are in thousands of U.S. dollars, except for share and per share amounts.

• The general and administrative expense ratio includes share compensation expenses.

• In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, the Company continually monitors and reviews its segment reporting structure to determine whether any changes have occurred that would impact its reportable segments. As a result of the evolution of the Company’s operations, the global nature of the industry and synergies obtained through the acquisition and integration of Talbot Holdings, Ltd., Western World Insurance Group, Inc. and Crop Risk Services, Inc. ("CRS"), the Company’s reportable segments had become progressively more integrated such that during the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company changed its reportable segments to “Reinsurance,” “Insurance,” and “Asset Management.” Furthermore, to better align the Company’s disclosures with its current strategy, the Company also changed its primary lines of business to “Property,” “Specialty - Short-tail” and “Specialty - Other.”

• The change in reportable segments and primary lines of business had no impact on the Company’s historical consolidated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported. Where applicable, all prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to this new presentation.

• On June 1, 2017, the Company redeemed its investment in one of the lower risk AlphaCat ILS funds. As a result, the Company was no longer deemed to be the primary beneficiary and therefore this fund was deconsolidated effective June 1, 2017.

• On May 1, 2017, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of CRS, a primary crop insurance managing general agent ("MGA"). For segmental reporting purposes, the results of CRS have been included in the results of the Insurance segment as of the date of acquisition. Transaction expenses incurred in relation to the acquisition of CRS are primarily comprised of legal, financial advisory and audit related services.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

• In presenting the Company’s results, management has included and discussed certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures, which may be defined and calculated differently by other companies, better explain and enhance the understanding of the Company’s results of operations. However, these measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

• In addition to presenting book value per common share determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company believes that the following non-GAAP book value financial measures are key financial indicators for evaluating performance and measuring overall growth: book value per diluted common share, book value per diluted common share plus accumulated dividends and tangible book value per diluted common share. A reconciliation of book value per common share, a GAAP financial measure, to the non-GAAP book value financial measures has been included on page 6.

• In addition to presenting net (loss) income (attributable) available to Validus common shareholders determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company believes that showing net operating income (loss) available (attributable) to Validus common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, provides investors with a valuable measure of profitability and enables investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its financial information to more easily analyze the Company’s results in a manner similar to how management analyzes the Company’s underlying business performance.

• Net operating income (loss) available (attributable) to Validus common shareholders, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated by the addition or subtraction of certain Consolidated Statement of (Loss) Income line items from net (loss) income (attributable) available to Validus common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and measures the performance of the Company’s operations without the influence of gains or losses on investments and foreign currencies and other items as noted in the reconciliation on page 22. The Company excludes these items from its calculation of net operating (loss) income (attributable) available to Validus common shareholders because the amount of these gains and losses is heavily influenced by, and fluctuates in part, according to availability of investment market opportunities and other factors. The Company believes these amounts are largely independent of its core underwriting activities and including them distorts the analysis of trends in its operations. The Company believes the reporting of net operating (loss) income (attributable) available to Validus common shareholders enhances the understanding of results by highlighting the underlying profitability of the Company’s core (re)insurance operations. This profitability is influenced significantly by earned premium growth, adequacy of the Company’s pricing, as well as loss frequency and severity. Over time it is also influenced by the Company’s underwriting discipline, which seeks to manage exposure to loss through favorable risk selection and diversification, its management of claims, its use of reinsurance and its ability to manage its expense ratio, which it accomplishes through its management of acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses.

• Return on average equity, a GAAP financial measure, and net operating return on average equity, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the returns generated on common shareholders’ equity during the year and are presented on page 22.

• The Company also considers underwriting (loss) income to be a measure of profitability that takes into account net premiums earned and other insurance related income as revenue and losses and loss expenses, acquisition costs and underwriting related general and administrative and share compensation expenses as expenses. Underwriting (loss) income is the difference between revenues and expense items. A reconciliation of underwriting (loss) income to net (loss) income (attributable) available to Validus common shareholders, the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is presented on page 9.

Notes:

(a) ASC 718 requires that any unrecognized stock based compensation expense that will be recorded in future periods be included as proceeds for purposes of treasury stock repurchases, which is applied against the unvested restricted shares balance.

(b) (Loss) earnings per basic common share is based on weighted average common shares and excludes any dilutive effects of options and restricted stock.

(c) (Loss) earnings per diluted common share assumes the exercise of all dilutive stock options and restricted stock grants. Due to the net (loss) incurred during the three months and year ended December 31, 2017, share equivalents were not included in the computation of (loss) per diluted common share due to their anti-dilutive effect.

(a) Managed investments represent assets governed by the Company’s investment policy statement (“IPS”) whereas, non-managed investments represent assets held in support of consolidated AlphaCat variable interest entities which are not governed by the Company’s IPS.

(b) Annualized effective investment yield on managed investments is calculated by dividing managed net investment income by the average balance of the yield bearing assets managed by our portfolio managers (including funds of high grade structured products which are included in other investments, but excluding all other investments). Average assets for the three months ended is the average of the beginning and ending quarter end asset balances. Average assets for the year ended is the average of the beginning, ending and intervening quarter end asset balances. Percentages for the quarter periods are annualized.

Notes:

(a) Net probable maximum losses and maximum zonal aggregates include Validus' share of the Asset Management segment limits.

Net loss estimates and zonal aggregates are before income tax, net of reinstatement premiums, and net of reinsurance and retrocessional recoveries.  The estimates set forth above are based on an Occurrence basis on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies. These uncertainties  and contingencies can affect actual losses and could cause actual losses to differ materially from those expressed above. In particular, modeled loss estimates do not necessarily accurately predict actual losses, and may significantly mis-estimate actual losses. Such estimates, therefore, should not be considered as a representation of actual losses.

The Company has developed the estimates of losses expected from certain catastrophes for its portfolio of property, marine, workers’ compensation, and personal accident contracts using commercially available catastrophe models such as RMS, AIR and EQECAT, which are applied and adjusted by the Company. These estimates include assumptions regarding the location, size and magnitude of an event, the frequency of events, the construction type and damageability of property in a zone, policy terms and conditions and the cost of rebuilding property in a zone, among other assumptions.  These assumptions will evolve following any actual event. Accordingly, if the estimates and assumptions that are entered into the risk model are incorrect, or if the risk model proves to be an inaccurate forecasting tool, the losses the Company might incur from an actual catastrophe could be materially higher than its expectation of losses generated from modeled catastrophe scenarios. In addition, many risks such as second-event covers, aggregate excess of loss, or attritional loss components cannot be fully evaluated using the vendor models.  Further, the Company cannot assure that such third party models are free of defects in the modeling logic or in the software code.

Investors should not rely on the information set forth in this presentation when considering investment in the Company. The information contained in this presentation has not been audited nor has it been subject to independent verification.  The estimates set forth above speak only as of the date of this presentation and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such information to reflect the occurrence of future events, including, but not limited to, the composition of the Company's business. The events presented reflect a specific set of proscribed calculations and do not necessarily reflect all events that may impact the Company.

The Company has presented the Company Realistic Disaster Scenarios for non-natural catastrophe events. Twice yearly, Lloyd's syndicates' including the Company's Syndicate 1183 are required to provide details of their potential exposures to specific disaster scenarios. Lloyd’s makes its updated Realistic Disaster Scenarios (RDS) guidance available to the market annually. The RDS scenario specification document for 2017 can be accessed at the RDS part of the Lloyd's public website: http://www.lloyds.com/the-market/tools-and-resources/research/exposure-management/realistic-disaster-scenarios.

The Consolidated Net Premiums Earned used in the calculation represent the latest 12 months of net premiums earned up to December 31, 2017.

Modeling catastrophe threat scenarios is a complex exercise involving numerous variables and is inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual losses and could cause actual losses incurred by the Company to differ materially from those expressed above. Should an event occur, the modeled outcomes may prove inadequate, possibly materially so. This may occur for a number of reasons including, legal requirements, model deficiency, non-modeled risks or data inaccuracies.

A modeled outcome of net loss from a single event also relies in significant part on the reinsurance and retrocession arrangements in place, or expected to be in place at the time of the analysis, and may change during the year. Modeled outcomes assume that the reinsurance and retrocession in place responds as expected with minimal reinsurance failure or dispute. Reinsurance is purchased to match the original exposure as far as possible, but it is possible for there to be a mismatch or gap in cover which could result in higher than modeled losses to the Company. In addition, many parts of the reinsurance program are purchased with limited reinstatements and, therefore, the number of claims or events which may be recovered from second or subsequent events is limited. It should also be noted that renewal dates of the reinsurance program do not necessarily coincide with those of the inwards business written. Where original business is not protected by risks attaching reinsurance or retrocession programs, the programs could expire resulting in an increase in the possible net loss retained by the Company.

Investors should not rely on the information set forth in this presentation when considering investment in the Company. The information contained in this presentation has not been audited nor has it been subject to independent verification. The estimates set forth above speak only as of the date of this presentation and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such information to reflect the occurrence of future events. The events presented reflect a specific set of prescribed calculations and do not necessarily reflect all events that may impact the Company.
