Third Quarter 2025 Review*

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $754.6 million, an increase of 24.8% compared to $604.7 million in

the prior-year period. This increase was primarily due to continued organic revenue growth of 15.0%, driven by new

client wins and expanded relationships with existing clients, coupled with continued expansion of the specialty and

E&S markets, revenue from acquisitions completed within the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2025,

changes in contingent commissions, and the impact of foreign exchange rates. We experienced growth across the

majority of our casualty lines and modest growth in property lines across all three specialties.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $643.8 million, a 23.0% increase compared to $523.2

million in the prior-year period. This increase was primarily due to higher Compensation and benefits expenses

compared to the prior-year period resulting from higher compensation due to growth in headcount and revenue,

partially offset by a decrease in Restructuring and related expenses due to the completion of the ACCELERATE 2025

program, lower Equity-based compensation, and lower Acquisition related long-term incentive compensation.

General and administrative expense also increased compared to the prior-year period due to an increase in

professional services and IT charges associated with ongoing technology and data initiatives as well as costs directly

linked to revenue growth, recruiter fees, and higher expenses to accommodate both organic and inorganic revenue

growth, partially offset by lower Restructuring and related expenses due to the completion of the ACCELERATE 2025

program.

Net income for the third quarter of 2025 increased 118.6% to $62.6 million, compared to $28.6 million in the prior-

year period. The increase was due to strong revenue growth, Other non-operating income compared to a loss in the

prior-year period, partially offset by higher Total operating expenses, higher Interest expense, net, and a lower

Income tax benefit compared to the prior-year period.

Adjusted EBITDAC grew 23.8% to $235.5 million from $190.3 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDAC

margin for the quarter was 31.2%, compared to 31.5% in the prior-year period. The increase in Adjusted EBITDAC

was driven primarily by strong revenue growth, partially offset by higher Adjusted compensation and benefits

expense, as well as higher Adjusted general and administrative expense.

Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2025 increased 15.9% to $131.7 million, compared to $113.6 million in

the prior-year period. Adjusted net income margin was 17.5%, compared to 18.8% in the prior-year period. Adjusted

diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2025 increased 14.6% to $0.47, compared to $0.41 in the prior-

year period.

measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance

Indicators” below.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had Cash and cash equivalents of $153.5 million and outstanding debt

principal of $3.4 billion.

Quarterly Dividend

On October 30, 2025, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share on

the outstanding Class A common stock. The regular quarterly dividend will be payable on November 25, 2025, to

stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 11, 2025. A portion of the dividend, $0.05 per share,

will be funded by free cash flow from Ryan Specialty, LLC and will be paid to all holders of the Company’s Class A

common stock and the holders of the LLC Common Units (as defined below).

Full Year 2025 Guidance*

The Company is updating its full year 2025 guidance for Organic Revenue Growth Rate and Adjusted EBITDAC Margin

as follows:

•We are guiding to an Organic Revenue Growth Rate of double digits for the full year 2025.

•We are guiding to an Adjusted EBITDAC Margin of flat to modestly down for the full year 2025, as compared

to the prior year.

The Company has revised the manner in which it is presenting its guidance in response to, among other factors, a

significantly increased and unpredictable opportunity to hire broking and underwriting talent and to make other

investments in its business, which the Company anticipates will persist for at least the near term and will impact

Adjusted EBITDAC Margin. In addition, the revised presentation more closely aligns with common industry practices

for guidance.

The Company is unable to provide a comparable outlook for, or a reconciliation to, Total revenue growth rate or Net

income margin because it cannot provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of certain reconciling

items without unreasonable effort. Its inability to do so is due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing of

items that have not yet occurred and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation,

including variations in effective tax rate, expenses to be incurred for acquisition activities, and other one-time or

exceptional items.

*For a definition of Organic revenue growth rate and Adjusted EBITDAC margin, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key

Performance Indicators” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators

In assessing the performance of the Company’s business, non-GAAP financial measures are used that are derived

from the Company’s consolidated financial information, but which are not presented in the Company’s consolidated

financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these non-GAAP financial measures

to be useful metrics for management and investors to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to

period by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, tax positions, depreciation,

amortization, and certain other items that the Company believes are not representative of its core business. The

Company uses the following non-GAAP measures for business planning purposes, in measuring performance relative

to that of its competitors, to help investors to understand the nature of the Company’s growth, and to enable

investors to evaluate the run-rate performance of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as

supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the consolidated financial statements prepared and

presented in accordance with GAAP. The footnotes to the reconciliation tables below should be read in conjunction

with the unaudited consolidated quarterly financial statements in the Company’s Quarterly Report on form 10-Q

filed with the SEC. Industry peers may provide similar supplemental information but may not define similarly-named

metrics in the same way and may not make identical adjustments.

Organic revenue growth rate: Organic revenue growth rate represents the percentage change in Net commissions

and fees, as compared to the same period for the prior year, adjusted to eliminate revenue attributable to

acquisitions for the first twelve months of ownership, revenue attributable to sold businesses for the subsequent

twelve months after the sale, and other items such as contingent commissions and the impact of changes in foreign

exchange rates.

Adjusted compensation and benefits expense: Adjusted compensation and benefits expense is defined as

Compensation and benefits expense adjusted to reflect items such as (i) equity-based compensation, (ii) acquisition

and restructuring related compensation expenses, and (iii) other exceptional or non-recurring compensation

expenses, as applicable. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Compensation and benefits expense.

Adjusted general and administrative expense: Adjusted general and administrative expense is defined as General

and administrative expense adjusted to reflect items such as (i) acquisition and restructuring related general and

administrative expenses, and (ii) other exceptional or non-recurring general and administrative expenses, as

applicable. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is General and administrative expense.

Adjusted compensation and benefits expense ratio: Adjusted compensation and benefits expense ratio is defined

as the Adjusted compensation and benefits expense as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable

GAAP financial metric is Compensation and benefits expense ratio.

Adjusted general and administrative expense ratio: Adjusted general and administrative expense ratio is defined as

the Adjusted general and administrative expense as a percentage of Total revenue. The most directly comparable

GAAP financial metric is General and administrative expense ratio.

Adjusted EBITDAC: Adjusted EBITDAC is defined as Net income before Interest expense, net, Income tax expense,

Depreciation, Amortization, and Change in contingent consideration, adjusted to reflect items such as (i) equity-

based compensation, (ii) acquisition-related expenses, and (iii) other exceptional or non-recurring items, as

applicable. Acquisition-related expense includes one-time diligence, transaction-related, and integration costs.

Acquisition-related expense included a $4.5 million charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, related

to a deal-contingent foreign exchange forward contract associated with the Castel acquisition. The remaining

charges in both years represent typical one-time diligence, transaction-related, and integration costs. Acquisition-

related long-term incentive compensation arises from long-term incentive plans associated with acquisitions. These

plans require service requirements, and in some cases performance targets, to be met in order to be earned.

Restructuring and related expense consists of compensation and benefits, occupancy, contractors, professional

services, and license fees related to the ACCELERATE 2025 program, which concluded at the end of 2024. The

compensation and benefits expense included severance as well as employment costs related to services rendered

between the notification and termination dates and other termination payments. Amortization and expense is

composed of charges related to discontinued prepaid incentive programs. For the three months ended

September 30, 2025, Other non-operating loss (income) consisted of $0.3 million of forfeitures of vested equity

awards, $0.2 million of seller reimbursement of acquisition-related retention incentives, $0.2 million of sublease

income offset by $0.4 million of TRA contractual interest and related charges. For the three months ended

September 30, 2024, Other non-operating loss (income) consisted of $16.2 million of term loan modification

expense and $0.5 million of TRA contractual interest and related charges offset by $0.1 million of sublease income.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Other non-operating loss (income) consisted of $0.6 million of

seller reimbursement of acquisition-related retention incentives, $0.4 million of sublease income, and $0.3 million of

forfeitures of vested equity awards offset by $0.8 million of TRA contractual interest and related charges. For the

nine months ended September 30, 2024, Other non-operating loss (income) consisted of $18.1 million of expense

related to term loan modifications and $0.8 million of TRA contractual interest and related charges offset by $0.4

million of sublease income. Equity-based compensation reflects non-cash equity-based expense. IPO related

expenses include compensation-related expense primarily related to the expense for new awards issued at IPO as

well as expense related to the revaluation of existing equity awards at IPO.

Adjusted EBITDAC margin: Adjusted EBITDAC margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDAC as a percentage of Total

revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income margin.

Adjusted net income: Adjusted net income is defined as tax-effected earnings before amortization and certain items

of income and expense, gains and losses, equity-based compensation, acquisition related long-term incentive

compensation, acquisition-related expenses, costs associated with our IPO, and certain exceptional or non-recurring

items. The Company will be subject to United States federal income taxes, in addition to state, local, and foreign

taxes, with respect to its allocable share of any net taxable income of Ryan Specialty, LLC (together with its parent

New Ryan Specialty, LLC and their subsidiaries, the “LLC”). For comparability purposes, this calculation incorporates

the impact of federal and state statutory tax rates on 100% of the Company’s adjusted pre-tax income as if the

Company owned 100% of Ryan Specialty, LLC. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income.

Adjusted net income margin: Adjusted net income margin is defined as Adjusted net income as a percentage of

Total revenue. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Net income margin.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as Adjusted net income divided

by diluted shares outstanding after adjusting for the effect if 100% of the outstanding LLC Common Units (“LLC

Common Units”), together with the shares of Class B common stock, vested Class C Incentive Units, vested but

unexercised Options, and unvested equity awards were exchanged into shares of Class A common stock as if 100%

of unvested equity awards were vested. The most directly comparable GAAP financial metric is Diluted earnings per

share.

Credit Adjusted EBITDAC: Credit Adjusted EBITDAC is defined as Adjusted EBITDAC as further adjusted without

duplication for: acquired EBITDAC from the beginning of the applicable twelve month reference period through the

acquisition close date, certain annualized run rate expected cost savings and initiatives, and certain other

adjustments as permitted in calculating leverage ratios under our debt agreements. The Company presents Credit

Adjusted EBITDAC as an additional measure of liquidity and leverage. The calculation of Credit Adjusted EBITDAC

pursuant to our debt agreements permits certain estimates and assumptions that may differ from actual results.

The summary unaudited consolidated financial data presented for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025,

was derived by adding the consolidated financial data of the Company for the twelve months ended December 31,

2024, to the consolidated financial data of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and

subtracting the consolidated financial data of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The

summary unaudited consolidated financial data for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, has been

prepared for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily representative of our results of operations for any

future period or our financial condition at any future date.

The reconciliation of the above non-GAAP measures to each of their most directly comparable GAAP financial

measure is set forth in the reconciliation table accompanying this release.

With respect to the Organic revenue growth rate and Adjusted EBITDAC margin outlook presented in the “Full Year

2025 Outlook” section of this press release, the Company is unable to provide a comparable outlook for, or a

reconciliation to, Total revenue growth rate or Net income margin because it cannot provide a meaningful or

accurate calculation or estimation of certain reconciling items without unreasonable effort. Its inability to do so is

due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting the timing of items that have not yet occurred and quantifying certain

amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including variations in effective tax rate, expenses to be incurred

for acquisition activities, and other one-time or exceptional items.

outstanding - diluted, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, this includes $127.5

million and $106.4 million of Net income, respectively, on 273.7 million and 271.3 million Weighted-average shares

of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025,

135.6 million weighted average outstanding LLC Common Units were considered dilutive and included in the 273.7

Weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding - diluted for the three months ended

(4)For comparability purposes and to be consistent with the treatment of the adjustments to arrive at Adjusted net

income, the dilutive effect of unvested equity awards as well as outstanding vested options and vested Class C

Incentive Units is calculated using the treasury stock method as if the weighted-average unrecognized cost

associated with the awards was $0 over the period, less any unvested equity awards determined to be dilutive

within the Diluted EPS calculation disclosed in “Note 9, Earnings Per Share” of the unaudited quarterly

consolidated financial statements. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 5.5 million and 3.5

million shares were added to the calculation, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and

2024, 5.4 million and 4.4 million shares were added to the calculation, respectively.
