ITEM 2.02 DISCLOSURE OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

On August 5, 2020, the registrant issued a news release announcing its second quarter 2020 results. A copy of that news release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The news release furnished herewith contains information regarding the registrant’s operating income (loss). Operating income (loss) differs from net income (loss) attributable to Everest Re Group, the most directly comparable generally accepted accounting principle financial measure, by the exclusion of realized capital gains (losses) on investments and net foreign exchange income (expense). Management believes that presentation of operating income (loss) provides useful information to investors because it more accurately measures and predicts the registrant’s results of operations by removing the variability arising from both the management of the registrant’s investment portfolio and the fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, management, analysts and investors use operating income (loss) to evaluate the financial performance of the registrant and the insurance industry in general.

In accordance with general instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this report, including exhibits, is furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section.
