In connection with such change, we issued a recast Financial Supplement for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "Financial Supplement") on
June 11, 2021
. A copy of the Financial Supplement is attached hereto and is incorporated herein by reference, and will be available on the "Investor Relations" page of the Company's website located at www.enstargroup.com.
The information contained in the Financial Supplement is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings and other public announcements that the Company may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time. The Company undertakes no duty to further publicly update, revise or recast the information contained in the Financial Supplement, although it may do so from time to time as its management believes is warranted. Any such further updating may be made through the filing of other reports or documents with the SEC, through press releases or through other public disclosure.
The information presented in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, unless the Company specifically states that the information is to be considered "filed" under the Exchange Act or specifically incorporates it by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on May 7, 2021 (the "2021 Quarterly Report"), we revised our segment structure during the first quarter of 2021 to align with how our chief operating decision maker (who was determined to be our Chief Executive Officer) views our business, assesses performance and allocates resources to our business components. Effective January 1, 2021, following the completion of various strategic transactions related to both Atrium and StarStone, our business is now organized into three reportable segments: (i) Run-off; (ii) Investments; and (iii) Legacy Underwriting.
This Current Report on Form 8-K presents our financial results for the year ended December 31, 2020 and is consistent with the presentation included in our 2021 Quarterly Report.
The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.2, is presented in connection with the revised segment structure described above and does not otherwise materially amend or restate our audited consolidated financial statements that were included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Unaffected items and unaffected portions of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K have not been repeated in, and are not amended or modified by, this Current Report on Form 8-K, other than as required to reflect our updated reporting segments or as noted in the financial statements contained therein.
Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K does not reflect events occurring after we filed the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as otherwise noted therein. More current information is contained in the Company's filings subsequent to the date of filing of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the 2021 Quarterly Report, which also contains important information regarding forward-looking statements, events, developments or updates to certain expectations of the Company that have occurred since the filing of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, this Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with our other filings made with the SEC, including, and subsequent to, the date of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We have revised the following sections of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K to reflect the retrospective revisions that have been made as a result of the changes to our segment structure:
