JDC TECHNICAL EVALUATION REPORT

Subject: Enstar Group to Depart Public Markets in Landmark $5.1BN Sixth Street Takeover

Reference: UID6053

Market Authority: London & International Markets

Case Ref: PRIV-Q2-2026

Date: 13th April 2026

Status: PENDING CLOSURE (Regulatory Review)

Case Summary (Tier 4): The industry titan prepares for a “dark room” transition. By moving to private hands via Sixth Street, Enstar is insulating its Q2 capital strategy from public volatility, focusing on long-term portfolio optimization away from the ticker tape’s glare.

Case Detail (Tier 5):

The Valuation: The deal prices Enstar at $338.00 per ordinary share, a definitive premium aimed at consolidating one of the largest legacy portfolios in the world.

The Mechanics: This is an all-cash transaction backed by Sixth Street, with participation from Liberty Strategic Capital and J.C. Flowers & Co.

Capital Impact: By moving private, Enstar avoids the “quarterly earnings theatre,” allowing them to manage long-tail asbestos and environmental (A&E) liabilities with a 10-to-20-year horizon rather than a 90-day one.

Watch Point: Look for the “Go-Shop” period results; while unlikely to be topped, it signals how the market values legacy specialists in a high-interest-rate environment.
