Business Wire
AM Best has commented that the Credit Rating (ratings) of
James River Group Holdings, Ltd. (JRG Holdings) [NASDAQ: JRVR]
(Bermuda) and its subsidiaries remain unchanged at this time
following the announcement that JRG Holdings has filed a complaint
in the Supreme Court, New York County, Commercial Division against
Fleming Intermediate Holdings LLC (Fleming), a portfolio company of
private equity sponsor, Altamont Capital Partners. The action seeks
specific performance of Fleming’s obligation to complete the
acquisition of JRG Reinsurance Company Ltd. (JRG Re) in accordance
with the Stock Purchase Agreement executed between the parties as
of Nov. 8, 2023. JRG Holdings will seek expedited relief from the
Court to require Fleming to close the transaction.
This legal action, as stated in JRG Holdings’ lawsuit, is “a
result of the refusal of Fleming to complete the fully negotiated
transaction as executed in November.” JRG Holdings has confirmed
that as long as it owns JRG Re, JRG Holdings will continue to
operate and support JRG Re and its cedents as it has throughout its
ownership. AM Best will closely monitor the progress of the legal
action and its potential impact on ratings of JRG Holdings and its
subsidiaries.
