Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) Recommend Tiptree Stockholders
Vote “FOR” the Merger of Fortegra and DB Insurance

GREENWICH, Conn., November 24, 2025 – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Tiptree Inc. (NASDAQ: TIPT) today announced that Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”), the leading independent proxy advisory firm, has recommended that Tiptree stockholders vote “FOR” the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Tiptree, The Fortegra Group, Inc. (“Fortegra”) and DB Insurance Co., Ltd. (“DB”), providing for the acquisition by DB of all of the outstanding stock of Fortegra in an all-cash deal (the “Merger Proposal”).

In their recommendation FOR the Merger Proposal, ISS noted1:

•

“The sales process itself was competitive and TIPT explored alternative transaction structures including an IPO, an outright sale of TIPT, and buying out Warburg Pincus' stake in Fortegra with no success. Ultimately, the competitive dynamic and public disclosure of the sales process supports the board's argument that the offer presented is likely the best available at this time.”

•

“TIPT has delivered strong TSR over the past five years, outpacing peers and the broader market. In other words, the next steps for the company should be viewed with an understanding of the company's structure and its long-term track record.”

“We are pleased that ISS recognizes the compelling value of the Fortegra transaction for our stockholders,” said Michael G. Barnes, Executive Chairman of Tiptree. “Your Board unanimously recommends Tiptree stockholders vote “FOR” the Merger Proposal at our December 3rd Special Meeting. Every vote is important, as a failure to vote will have the same effect as a vote against approval of the Merger Proposal.”

Tiptree stockholders who have any questions, or need assistance in voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor:
