Exhibit 99.1

Comments from President & Chief Executive Officer, B. Bradford Martz:

"Our third quarter results reflect the strength of our disciplined underwriting in a softening market. With our net pricing down more than 25% year over year, American Coastal delivered solid results against a very strong prior-year quarter, including net income of $19.4 million, a 64.7% combined ratio and a 24.1% core return on equity. Just as important, our underlying combined ratio was 68.4% for the quarter, in line with the first two quarters of the year, which tells us the quality of our portfolio has not changed even as rates have come down. We also returned to year-over-year growth in gross premiums written for the first time since early 2025.

We continue to generate strong, profitable results while using this part of the cycle to position American Coastal to benefit meaningfully from the next hard market. Book value per share reached $7.52, up 15.5% since year-end. During the quarter, we put our AmRisc partnership on a permanent footing, and our participation in AmRisc’s nationwide E&S commercial property portfolio has added $37.3 million of premium so far this year. We also received our certificate of authority for ACES Specialty and expect to begin writing E&S commercial property through Skyway in Florida, Texas and South Carolina in the coming months. With a strong balance sheet and new avenues for growth, we believe American Coastal is well positioned to compound significant value for shareholders over the long term."
