| Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition |
PICO Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release on March 8, 2021, announcing its financial results for the fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The information in this Current Report that is furnished under Items 2.02 and 9.01, including the exhibit hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

| Item 5.03 | Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
Effective as of March 8, 2021, PICO Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “our”) changed its name to Vidler Water Resources, Inc. This change was made pursuant to Section 242 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and Article IX of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation by filing a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference. We also amended and restated the Company’s Bylaws to reflect the name change. A copy of the Bylaws is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated by reference. No other changes were made to our Bylaws.
In connection with the name change, shares of our common stock will begin trading with Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC under our new trading symbol VWTR from March 9, 2021. The new CUSIP number for our shares of common stock is 92660E107.
The change of the Company’s name and trading symbol does not change the designations, rights, preferences, or privileges of
the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. Nevertheless, as a result of the change in our name and trading symbol, the
Company will implement an exchange program for any shares that are certificated, pursuant to which the existing certificated or
uncertificated shares may be exchanged for new certificates reflecting the Company’s new name and new CUSIP number.
Shareholders holding certificated shares are strongly encouraged to participate in this program.
With respect to any shares that are uncertificated and bear the Company’s former name and CUSIP number, those shares will be deemed to represent the same number and class of shares in the Company as are evidenced by a non-certificated share bearingthe Company’s new name and CUSIP number.
If for any reason certificated shares are not exchanged for new certificates, the former share certificates will be deemed to
represent an equivalent number and class of shares associated with the Company’s new name and new CUSIP number.
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment and Amended and Restated Bylaws.
