Why Mount Logan

Strong Leadership & Support

  • Founded in 2018 and led by Ted Goldthorpe, the management team has the track record, experience and pedigree of having worked at leading firms (Apollo, Goldman Sachs, & BC Partners) and through multiple credit cycles

  • MLC leverages best practices and operational excellence of BC Partners ($40bn+ alternative asset manager) via strategic servicing agreement

Compelling Combination of Stability & Growth

  • MLC has stable assets supported by permanent capital in the asset management business and predictable liabilities in the insurance business. The Company has the unique ability to harvest its predictable and stable asset management cash flows to further grow its retail and insurance businesses

  • Acquisitions in the asset management space (available at <10x FRE), growth of the retail business, and scaling the insurance Business are all expected to contribute meaningfully to growth

Uniquely Positioned versus Peers

  • While larger peers (Blackstone, Ares, Brookfield, KKR, Apollo, etc.) dominate funds flow, MLC is in the unique position to grow by pursuing opportunities that don't move the needle for these larger peers

  • MLC has a differentiated platform that sets it apart from other publicly-traded financials companies with respect to not only its ability to rapidly scale, but also its risk profile in an otherwise highly correlated sector

Attractive Valuation

  • Larger peers valued on Fee Related Earnings (FRE) multiples of ~20x, versus MLC trading at mid-single digits on FRE

  • Increased scale and earnings growth should help narrow the valuation gap over time

Valuing MLC as the sum of the parts at 10x FRE for the Asset Management business and at 0.5x BV for the Insurance business implies MLC is undervalued relative to its peers
