Fellow Shareholders,

Enclosed you will find the second quarter financial results for Elah Holdings, Inc. I am pleased to report that our M&A opportunity assessment in my first quarter letter from May remains accurate. We have not seen any reduction in deal flow, nor any change in our deal pipeline, as a result of the volatility in the capital markets this year.

This makes sense when you consider our primary approach to dealmaking. We seek to partner with owners who have a long-term outlook and desire to hold their businesses. Elah's calling card is to demonstrate how our company can help such owners achieve their objectives faster than other alternatives and to ultimately create more value for them over time. As a result, near-term market turbulence generally does not factor into the calculus. Importantly, we believe this strategy is also a great way to create sustainable value for our shareholders while managing downside risk.

Elah is also opportunistic and welcomes situations that are complex or where our creative structuring can set us apart. The uncertainty seen this year at home and abroad creates just that type of environment. For example, Elah has been in dialogue with multiple foreign-listed public companies with US business operations who are seeking a route to a US exchange listing. With the SPAC and IPO markets being incredibly selective these days, Elah presents an attractive alternative solution.

For the enclosed second quarter financial report, we incurred higher deal-related operating expenses compared to the past few quarters, which resulted in a larger loss from continuing operations. Offsetting these higher expenses were greater earnings from discontinued operations during the quarter. As a result, our reported net loss of $0.5 million remained largely in line with budget and prior periods. Our balance sheet remains strong and we have the liquidity to manage the business without worrying about deal clocks.

Thank you for your continued interest in Elah. Feel free to reach out to anyone on the team with questions. Sincerely,

Kyle Ross

Chief Executive Officer

On November 17, 2017, the Company (then known as Real Industry, Inc.) and its then wholly owned subsidiaries, Real Alloy Intermediate Holding, LLC ("RAIH") and Real Alloy Holding, Inc. ("Real Alloy"), as well as six of Real Alloy's wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (collectively with RAIH and Real Alloy, the "Real Alloy Debtors,"), filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code ("Bankruptcy Code") in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware ("Bankruptcy Court"). The Chapter 11 cases of the Company and the Real Alloy Debtors were jointly administered and procedurally consolidated in the Bankruptcy Court under the case of Real Industry, Case No. 17-12464 (KJC), and the caption "In re: Real Industry, Inc., et al." Court filings and other information related to the Chapter 11 proceedings are available at a website administered by the claims and noticing agent, Prime Clerk LLC, at https://cases.primeclerk.com/realindustry.

On May 9, 2018, the Company completed a Bankruptcy Court- and stockholder-approved Chapter 11 plan of reorganization ("Plan"), which Plan centered around a $17.5 million injection of new equity capital into the Company's business in exchange for 49% of our new common stock, the compromise of more than $30 million in preferred equity and accrued dividends in exchange for $2 million and 31% of our new shares of common stock, the cancellation of all common stock and all other derivative securities and reissuance of new shares of common stock to all stockholders on the basis of an effective 1-for-200 reverse stock split, the payment or settlement of all allowed claims and debts in full, the forfeiture of the equity and interests of our former operating subsidiary RAIH and the Real Alloy business, the appointment of an entirely new board of directors, and the change of our name to Elah Holdings. In connection with these changes, the Company qualified to "go dark" from periodic reporting with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as of May 9, 2018, as the Company and its stock met the SEC's requirements of voluntary deregistration of our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with the SEC. The Company's stock resumed trading on the Over-the-Counter Pink Sheets following the Emergence Date in late June 2018. Real Alloy was sold pursuant to a Bankruptcy Court-approved Section 363 sale of the Real Alloy U.S. assets and non-U.S. equity, which closed on May 31, 2018. Real Industry did not receive any value from the sale of such assets, and the Company has no ongoing financial ties to Real Alloy.

  1. Issuer's Business, Products and Services

A. Summarize the issuer's business operations.

Elah Holdings, Inc. is a Delaware holding company that is continuing to execute the longstanding business strategy of Real Industry (and previously Signature Group Holdings, Inc.) of seeking to acquire profitable businesses in the commercial and industrial markets, supporting the performance of such acquisitions post-closing and managing legacy assets. We have historically operated through subsidiaries.

A key element to our business strategy is utilizing our considerable United States ("U.S.") federal net operating tax loss carryforwards ("NOLs"). Our federal NOLs were predominantly generated by legacy businesses, and as of December 31, 2021, total $1.0 billion, approximately $650 million of which begin to expire if not used before our 2027 tax year. The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets, including our federal NOLs, depends on our ability to generate future U.S. federal taxable income through the implementation of our business plan.

B. Please list any subsidiaries, parents, or affiliated companies.

The Company's direct subsidiaries are SGGH, LLC and Cosmedicine, LLC; all of the Company's subsidiaries are discontinued operations. SGGH, LLC, and its subsidiaries include the legacy operations of Fremont, a diversified financial and insurance services business, which, by virtue of a series of asset sales and changes in operating strategy, became discontinued operations in June 2010, over ten years ago.

C. Describe the issuers' principal products or services: N/A

  1. Issuer's Facilities
    The Company does not maintain any facilities or own real property and is not a party to any lease. Our employees work remotely, and to the extent any employee utilizes office space from time to time, it is paid for on a month-to-month basis.
