Dear Shareholders, Our first quarter results were excellent, and we’re pleased to note that we now expect cash flow breakeven by year-end 2024. Here’s a quick look at our operating metrics for Q1: • Top line: At $794 million, in-force premium (IFP) grew 22% year on year, while total revenue grew 25%. • Loss Ratio: At 79%, gross loss ratio showed an 8 point year on year improvement. • Gross Profit: Climbed 110% year on year, while Gross Profit Margin improved by 12 points to 29%. • Operating Expense: Increased just 2% year on year. • Bottom line: At ($34) million, Adjusted EBITDA loss improved 33% year on year, while Net Loss at ($47) million, improved 28%. 3


 
The Power of Tech In her blog post titled “How AI Is Revolutionizing the Financial Industry,” Adena Friedman, President and CEO of Nasdaq, wrote that “in the financial industry, artificial intelligence is not just a tool; it’s a strategic imperative. Companies that leverage AI to optimize operations, mitigate risks, and deliver superior customer experiences will emerge as leaders in the digital economy.” We agree with that premise entirely, and always have. In our 2020 IPO prospectus, we described technology as the primary and most critical pillar of our strategy, speaking of our ambition to “leverage technology in everything we do.” Indeed we believe that AI has the potential to completely redefine what good looks like in insurance. This was our founding thesis, and we’re increasingly seeing results that back it up. One clear example: our loss adjustment expense ratio, or LAE ratio. LAE ratio - defined as loss adjustment expenses divided by gross earned premium - measures the operational overhead of managing claims. Since LAE is generally unaffected by growth spend and underwriting results, it is an excellent measure of operational efficiency, and so is a particularly helpful way to benchmark Lemonade's efficiency to the industry. An LAE ratio of ~10% 1 is typical of leading insurers with tens of billions in premium. Despite our relatively small size, Lemonade’s LAE ratio, at 7.6% in Q1, is notably better than that benchmark, showcasing how technology can dramatically drive efficiency even before the benefits of scale kicks in. Indeed, we have nearly halved this ratio in just two years. 4 1 Per Capital IQ S&P.


 
The unlock of this performance has been our continuous and broad deployment of AI and other technologies across customer interactions, which has driven a material reduction in the cost of managing each claim, while delighting customers. Our pet business is a great place to see this in action. With its high frequency/ low severity claim dynamic, the pet line of business enjoys an accelerated feedback loop - operating in 'dog years' if you like - allowing our tech to iterate rapidly. As a result, we’ve seen a step change improvement in efficiency. In the past two years, inline with the rapid growth of the book, we saw a near doubling of the number of claims submitted - but a less than 15% increase in claims support team headcount. The chart shows how our cost per claim has declined by nearly 60% since Q4'21: 5


 
This playbook - the relentless pursuit of automation at every stage, enabled by a range of AIs - is actively being applied in all our lines of business, and all parts of the company. Case in point: our headcount shrank 11% year on year, even as our total book surged by 22%. This speaks volumes for the widespread impact of technology throughout the company. 6


 
Cash Flow Breakeven and Acceleration & Beyond Previously, we indicated our expectation that net cash flow breakeven would occur during the first half of 2025. We are pleased to note that our expectations have improved due to (a) sustained strength in our underlying unit economics, (b) impact of technology on various expense categories, and (c) working capital benefits of our reinsurance structure. Our expected net cash flow breakeven date has therefore accelerated to year-end 2024, such that by Q1 2025, we expect to be generating positive net cash flow on a consistent basis. Net cash flow breakeven, while an important milestone, is certainly not our final destination. We are increasingly focused on what comes next. Once generating positive cash flow, we expect to benefit from an increasing cash and investments balance, with growing investment income contribution. This will enable us to lean in and reinvest in cash-flow generative, capital-light growth with maximum confidence. 7


 
Q1 2024 Results, KPIs and Non-GAAP Financial Measures In Force Premium IFP, defined as the aggregate annualized premium for customers as of the period end date, increased by 22% to $794.2 million as compared to the first quarter of 2023. Customers Customer count increased by 13% to 2,095,275 as compared to the first quarter of 2023. Premium per Customer Premium per customer, defined as in force premium divided by customers, was $379 at the end of the first quarter, up 8% from the first quarter of 2023. Annual Dollar Retention ADR, defined as the percentage of IFP retained over a twelve month period, inclusive of changes in policy value, changes in number of policies, changes in policy type, and churn, was 88% at the end of the first quarter, an increase of 1 percentage point from first quarter of 2023. Gross Earned Premium First quarter gross earned premium of $187.9 million increased by $33.7 million or 22% as compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to the increase of IFP earned during the quarter. 8


 
Revenue First quarter revenue of $119.1 million increased by $23.9 million or 25% as compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to the increase of gross earned premium, ceding commission income and net investment income. Gross Profit First quarter gross profit of $34.7 million increased by $18.2 million or 110% as compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher earned premium and improved loss ratio in the first quarter this year. Adjusted Gross Profit First quarter adjusted gross profit of $36.7 million increased by $16.1 million or 78% as compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher earned premium and improved loss ratio in the first quarter. Adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP metric. Reconciliations of GAAP to non- GAAP financial measures, as well as definitions for the non-GAAP financial measures included in this letter and the reasons for their use, are presented at the end of this letter. Operating Expense Total operating expense, excluding net loss and loss adjustment expense, of $98.4 million increased by $2.1 million or 2% as compared to the first quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by higher growth spend for customer acquisition, offset by lower employee related costs. Growth acquisition spend, part of sales and marketing expense, was $19.8 million in the quarter. Net Loss Net loss in the first quarter was ($47.3) million, or ($0.67) per share, as compared to ($65.8) million, or ($0.95) per share, in the first quarter of 2023. 9


 
Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA loss of ($33.9) million improved by $16.9, or 33%, as compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of ($50.8) million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher revenue in the first quarter. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric. Reconciliations of GAAP to non- GAAP financial measures, as well as definitions for the non-GAAP financial measures included in this letter and the reasons for their use, are presented at the end of this letter. Cash & Investments The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaled approximately $927 million at March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, approximately $186 million is carried by our insurance subsidiaries as regulatory surplus. 10


 
Key Operating and Financial Metrics Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 2023 ($ in millions, except Premium per customer) Customers (end of period) 2,095,275 1,856,012 In force premium (end of period) $ 794.2 $ 653.3 Premium per customer (end of period) $ 379 $ 352 Annual dollar retention (end of period) 88% 87% Total revenue $ 119.1 $ 95.2 Gross earned premium $ 187.9 $ 154.2 Gross profit $ 34.7 $ 16.5 Adjusted gross profit $ 36.7 $ 20.6 Net loss $ (47.3) $ (65.8) Adjusted EBITDA $ (33.9) $ (50.8) Gross profit margin 29% 17% Adjusted gross profit margin 31% 22% Ratio of Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross Earned Premium 20% 13% Gross loss ratio 79% 87% Net loss ratio 78% 93% 11

A full reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net loss on a forward- looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, interest income, net investment income, and other transactions that we consider to be unique in nature, all of which are adjustments to Adjusted EBITDA. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for the first quarter March 31, 2024 in the reconciliation tables at the end of this letter. 13


 
Non-GAAP financial measures and key operating metrics The non-GAAP financial measures used in this letter to shareholders are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Ratio of Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross Earned Premium. We define adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net loss excluding income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense, interest income and others, net investment income, net realized gains and losses on sale of investments, change in fair value of warrants liability, amortization of fair value adjustment on insurance contract intangible liability relating to the Metromile Acquisition, and other non-cash adjustments and other transactions that we would consider to be unique in nature. We exclude these items from adjusted EBITDA because we do not consider them to be directly attributable to our underlying operating performance. We use adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe it gives our management and other customers of our financial information useful insight into our results of operations and our underlying business performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as a substitute for net loss calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted EBITDA differently. We define adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP financial measure, as gross profit excluding net investment income, interest income and other income, and net realized gains and losses on sale of investments, plus fixed costs and overhead associated with our underwriting operations including employee- related expense, professional fees and other, and depreciation and amortization allocated to cost of revenue, and other adjustments that we would consider to be unique in nature. After these adjustments, the resulting calculation is inclusive of only those variable costs of revenue incurred on the successful acquisition of business and without the volatility of investment income. We use adjusted gross profit as a key measure of our progress 14


 
towards profitability and to consistently evaluate the variable contribution to our business from underwriting operations from period to period. We define Ratio of Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross Earned Premium as the ratio of adjusted gross profit to gross earned premium. The Ratio of Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross Earned Premium measures the relationship between the underlying business volume and gross economic benefit generated by our underwriting operations, on the one hand, and our underlying profitability trends, on the other. We rely on this measure, which supplements our gross profit ratio as calculated in accordance with GAAP, because it provides management with insight into our underlying profitability trends over time. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this letter to shareholders have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, adjusted gross profit, and adjusted gross profit margin, ratio of adjusted gross profit to gross earned premium, and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as indicators of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that they fail to address. We caution investors that non-GAAP financial information, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting conventions. Therefore, its use can make it difficult to compare our current results with our results from other reporting periods and with the results of other companies. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing our business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations and financial performance; (ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations; (iii) facilitate external comparisons of the results of our overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that 15


 
may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the operating performance of our management team; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this letter to shareholders. This letter to shareholders also includes key performance indicators, including customers, in force premium, premium per customer, annual dollar retention, gross earned premium, gross loss ratio, net loss ratio and gross loss ratio ex-CAT. We define customers as the number of current policyholders underwritten by us or placed by us with third-party insurance partners (who pay us recurring commissions) as of the period end date. A customer that has more than one policy counts as a single customer for the purposes of this metric. We view customers as an important metric to assess our financial performance because customer growth drives our revenue, expands brand awareness, deepens our market penetration, creates additional upsell and cross-sell opportunities and generates additional data to continue to improve the functioning of our platform. We define in force premium ("IFP") as the aggregate annualized premium for customers as of the period end date. At each period end date, we calculate IFP as the sum of: (i) In force written premium — the annualized premium of in force policies underwritten by us; and (ii) In force placed premium — the annualized premium of in force policies placed with third party insurance companies for which we earn a recurring commission payment. In force placed premium currently reflects approximately 1% of IFP. The annualized value of premiums is a legal and contractual determination made by 16


 
assessing the contractual terms with our customers. The annualized value of contracts is not determined by reference to historical revenues, deferred revenues or any other GAAP financial measure over any period. IFP is not a forecast of future revenues nor is it a reliable indicator of revenue expected to be earned in any given period. We believe that our calculation of IFP is useful to analysts and investors because it captures the impact of growth in customers and premium per customer at the end of each reported period, without adjusting for known or projected policy updates, cancellations, rescissions and non-renewals. We use IFP because we believe it gives our management useful insight into the total reach of our platform by showing all in force policies underwritten and placed by us. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate IFP differently or not at all, which reduces the usefulness of IFP as a tool for comparison. We define premium per customer as the average annualized premium customers pay for products underwritten by us or placed by us with third- party insurance partners. We calculate premium per customer by dividing IFP by customers. We view premium per customer as an important metric to assess our financial performance because premium per customer reflects the average amount of money our customers spend on our products, which helps drive strategic initiatives. We define annual dollar retention ("ADR"), as the percentage of IFP retained over a twelve month period, inclusive of changes in policy value, changes in number of policies, changes in policy type, and churn. To calculate ADR we first aggregate the IFP from all active customers at the beginning of the period and then aggregate the IFP from those same customers at the end of the period. ADR is then equal to the ratio of ending IFP to beginning IFP. Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, ADR included Metromile. We believe that our calculation of ADR is useful to analysts and investors because it captures our ability to retain customers and sell additional products and coverage to them over time. We view ADR as an important metric to measure our ability to provide a delightful end-to-end customer experience, 17


 
satisfy our customers’ evolving insurance needs and maintain our customers’ trust in our products. Our customers become more valuable to us every year they continue to subscribe to our products. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate ADR differently or not at all, which reduces the usefulness of ADR as a tool for comparison. Gross earned premium ("GEP") is the earned portion of our gross written premium. Gross earned premium includes direct and assumed premium. In December 2022, we began assuming premium related to car insurance policies written in Texas, in connection with our fronting arrangement with a third party carrier in Texas, and this did not impact the key performance indicators prior to fourth quarter of 2022. We use this operating metric as we believe it gives our management and other users of our financial information useful insight into the gross economic benefit generated by our business operations and allows us to evaluate our underwriting performance without regard to changes in our underlying reinsurance structure. Unlike net earned premium, gross earned premium excludes the impact of premiums ceded to reinsurers, and therefore should not be used as a substitute for net earned premium, total revenue, or any other measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We define gross loss ratio, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expense to gross earned premium. We define net loss ratio, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expense, less amounts ceded to reinsurers, to net earned premium. We define gross loss ratio ex-CAT, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of gross losses and loss adjustment expense, excluding catastrophic losses, to gross earned premium. We define net cash flow as the change in cash and investments. 18


 
We define trailing twelve month "TTM" gross loss ratio, expressed as a percentage, as the ratio of losses and loss adjustment expense to gross earned premium for the past twelve months. 19

EBITDA (1) (1) Adj. EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric. A full reconciliation of Adj. EBITDA guidance to net loss on a forward-looking basis cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts, as we are unable to provide reconciling information with respect to income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, interest income, net investment income, and other transactions that we consider to be unique in nature, all of which are adjustments to Adj. EBITDA. We estimate that stock-based compensation for the second quarter and full year 2024 is approximately $15m and $62m, respectively. We estimate that capital expenditures for the second quarter and full year 2024 is approximately $3m and $10m, respectively. We estimate weighted total common shares outstanding for the second quarter and full year 2024 is approximately 70m and 71m, respectively. Appendix p.10
