Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Introduction The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of MGIC Investment Corporation for the second quarter of 2026. As used below, “we” and “our” refer to MGIC Investment Corporation’s consolidated operations. This form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. See the “Glossary of terms and acronyms” for definitions and descriptions of terms used throughout this MD&A. Our revenues and losses could be affected by the Risk Factors referred to under “Forward Looking Statements and Risk Factors” above, and they are an integral part of the MD&A. Forward Looking and Other Statements As discussed under “Forward Looking Statements and Risk Factors” above, actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by forward looking statements. These forward looking statements speak only as of the date of this filing and are subject to change without notice. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward looking statements or other statements we may make in the following discussion or elsewhere in this document even though these statements may be affected by events or circumstances occurring after the forward looking statements or other statements were made. Therefore, no reader of this document should rely on these statements being current as of any time other than the time at which this document was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. MGIC Investment Corporation - Q2 2026 | 31 Overview Through our primary operating subsidiary, Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Corporation (“MGIC”), we provide mortgage insurance to lenders throughout the United States and to government sponsored entities to protect against loss from defaults on low down payment residential mortgage loans. Primary mortgage insurance provides mortgage default protection on individual loans and covers a percentage of the unpaid loan principal, delinquent interest and certain expenses associated with the default and subsequent foreclosure or sale approved by us, of the underlying property. As of June 30, 2026, we had $304.8 billion of primary insurance in force and $81.8 billion of primary risk in force. PMIERs We operate under the requirements of the GSEs PMIERs and must maintain compliance with these requirements to be eligible to insure loans delivered to or purchased by that GSE. The PMIERs include financial requirements, as well as business, quality control and certain transaction approval requirements. The PMIERs provide that the GSEs may amend any provision of the PMIERs or impose additional requirements with an effective date specified by the GSEs. The financial requirements of the PMIERs require a mortgage insurer’s "Available Assets" (generally only the most liquid assets of an insurer) to equal or exceed its "Minimum Required Assets" (which are generally based on an insurer's book of risk in force and calculated from tables of factors with several risk dimensions, reduced for credit given for risk ceded under reinsurance agreements and subject to a floor amount). Based on our application of the PMIERs as of June 30, 2026, MGIC’s Available Assets totaled $5.6 billion, or $2.7 billion in excess of its Minimum Required Assets. MGIC is in compliance with the PMIERs and eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs; however, if our Available Assets fall below our Minimum Required Assets, we would not be in compliance with the PMIERs. Our ability to continue to comply with PMIERS financial requirements could be affected by several factors, including: •Amendments to PMIERs, or changes to the way the GSEs interpret the existing PMIERs. •An increase in the number of loan delinquencies. The PMIERs generally require us to hold significantly more Minimum Required Assets for delinquent loans than for performing loans, and the Minimum Required Assets required to be held increases as the number of payments missed on a delinquent loan increases. If we are required to hold more capital relative to our insured loans it could adversely affect our business and results of operations. •The credit we receive for the investments in our investment portfolio. Under PMIERs, specified assets are excluded, limited or haircut for purposes of being counted as Available Assets. •Changes to the amount of credit we receive for risk ceded under our QSR and XOL Transactions. Our reinsurance transactions enable us to earn higher returns on our Minimum Required Assets than we would without them because they generally reduce the Minimum Required Assets we must hold under PMIERs. For additional information see our risk factors titled "Our underwriting practices and the mix of business we write affects our Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs, our premium yields and the likelihood of losses occurring" and "Reinsurance may be unavailable at current levels and prices, and/or the GSEs may reduce the amount of capital credit we receive for our reinsurance transactions" in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. •Failure to meet certain transactional approval conditions imposed by PMIERs. Such failure may restrict or delay us from taking certain actions that would be advantageous to our investors. GSE Reform FHFA placed the GSEs into conservatorship on September 7, 2008 and the FHFA has the authority to control and direct their operations. Given that the Director of the FHFA serves at the pleasure of the President, the agency's agenda, policies and actions may be influenced by the then-current administration. Congress and executive branch officials have periodically proposed various plans for the reform of the GSEs, including through privatization and/or termination of FHFA's conservatorship. However, it is unclear what reforms will ultimately be implemented, if any, and what the time frame for any such reforms will be. The potential impact of any such plan on our business and financial results remains uncertain. For additional information about the business practices of the GSEs, see our risk factor titled “Changes in the business practices of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ("the GSEs"), federal legislation that changes their charters or a restructuring of the GSEs could reduce our revenues or increase our losses” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. State Regulations The insurance laws of 16 jurisdictions, including Wisconsin, our domiciliary state, require a mortgage insurer to maintain a minimum amount of statutory capital relative to its RIF (or a similar measure) in order for the mortgage insurer to continue to write new business. We refer to these requirements as the “State Capital Requirements.” While they vary among jurisdictions, the most common State Capital Requirements allow for a maximum risk-to-capital ratio of 25 to 1. A risk-to-capital ratio will increase if (i) the percentage decrease in capital exceeds the percentage decrease in insured risk, or (ii) the percentage increase in capital is less than the percentage MGIC Investment Corporation - Q2 2026 | 32 increase in insured risk. Wisconsin does not regulate capital by using a risk-to-capital measure but instead requires a MPP. MGIC’s “policyholder position” includes its net worth or surplus and its contingency reserve. As of June 30, 2026, MGIC’s risk-to-capital ratio was 9.9 to 1, below the maximum allowed by the jurisdictions with State Capital Requirements, and its policyholder position was $3.6 billion above the required MPP of $2.1 billion. The calculation of our risk-to-capital ratio and MPP reflect full credit for the risk ceded under our reinsurance transactions. It is possible that under the revised State Capital Requirements discussed below, MGIC will not be allowed full credit for the risk ceded under such transactions. If MGIC is not allowed an agreed level of credit under either the State Capital Requirements or the PMIERs, MGIC may terminate the reinsurance transactions, without penalty. At this time, we expect MGIC to continue to comply with the current State Capital Requirements; however, for additional information about matters that could negatively impact our compliance with State Capital Requirements refer to our risk factor titled “State capital requirements may prevent us from continuing to write new insurance on an uninterrupted basis” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Regulatory and Legislative Developments Credit Score Modernization In recent years, the FHFA and the GSEs have undertaken initiatives to modernize the credit scoring framework used in mortgage underwriting and securitization. In June 2025, the FHFA directed the GSEs to adopt updated credit scoring models, including VantageScore 4.0 and FICO Score 10T, as part of a broader credit score modernization initiative. In April 2026, the GSEs began a phased implementation, initially permitting limited use of VantageScore 4.0 by certain approved lenders. FICO Score 10T is expected to be implemented at a later date. These changes may affect borrower eligibility and the mix of insured business, and the extent of any impact will depend on the pace of adoption and broader economic conditions. Basel III Endgame In July 2023, the Federal Reserve Board, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency proposed a revised regulatory capital rule, known as the Basel III End Game, that would impose higher capital standards on large U.S. banks. Under the proposed regulation's new expanded risk-based approach, it was interpreted that affected banks would no longer receive risk-based capital relief for mortgage insurance on loans held in their portfolios. In March 2026, the U.S. federal banking agencies rescinded the 2023 proposal and released a revised proposal. The 2026 proposal includes more granular risk-weight calculations for residential mortgage loans and maintains the existing treatment of mortgage insurance as a prudent underwriting standard. The proposal does not include the treatment of mortgage insurance as a part of the proposed risk-weight calculations. Mortgage Insurance Earnings and Cash Flow Cycle In general, the majority of any underwriting profit that a book generates occurs in the early years of the book, with the largest portion of any underwriting profit realized in the first year following the year the book was written. Subsequent years of a book may result in either underwriting profit or underwriting losses. This pattern generally results from the fact that relatively few of the losses ultimately incurred on delinquencies occur in the early years of a book, when premium revenue is highest, while subsequent years are affected by declining premium revenues, as the number of insured loans decreases, primarily due to loan prepayments, and increasing losses. The state of the economy, local housing markets, pandemics, natural disasters, and various other factors may result in delinquencies not following the typical pattern. Key Factors Affecting Our Results Our current and future business, results of operations and financial condition are impacted by macroeconomic conditions, such as interest rates, home prices, housing demand, level of employment, inflation, pandemics, restrictions on and costs of mortgage credit, and other factors.

References to "we" and "our" in the context of debt obligations refer to MGIC Investment Corporation. See the "Glossary of terms and acronyms" for definitions and descriptions of terms used throughout this annual report. The risk factors contained in Item 1A discuss trends and uncertainties affecting us and are an integral part of the MD&A. The following is a discussion and analysis of the financial conditions and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, including comparisons between 2025 and 2024. Comparisons between 2024 and 2023 have been omitted from this Form 10-K, but can be found in "Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC. Forward Looking and Other Statements As discussed under “Forward Looking Statements and Risk Factors” in "Item 1. Business - A. General" of this Report, actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by forward looking statements. We are not undertaking any obligation to update any forward looking statements or other statements we may make in the following discussion or elsewhere in this document even though these statements may be affected by events or circumstances occurring after the forward looking statements or other statements were made. Therefore, no reader of this document should rely on these statements being current as of any time other than the time at which this document was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. MGIC Investment Corporation 2025 Form 10-K | 44 Overview The following discussion highlights factors influencing our financial results and results of operations and may not contain all of the information that is important to readers of this Annual Report. It should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes found under Item 8. contained herein. Through MGIC, the principal subsidiary of MGIC Investment Corporation, we serve lenders throughout the United States helping families achieve homeownership sooner by making affordable low-down-payment mortgages a reality through the use of private mortgage insurance. As of December 31, 2025 MGIC had $303.1 billion of primary IIF. Business Environment Mortgage Insurance Market The strong credit quality of our insurance portfolio reflects several years of favorable housing fundamentals, and in our view, favorable risk characteristics on our recently insured loans. Our IIF increased during the year as a result of an increase in NIW offset partially by cancellations. Refer to "Mortgage Insurance Portfolio" for information on our NIW mix during 2025. Our NIW is affected by the total mortgage originations, the percentage of total mortgage originations using PMI, and our market share within the PMI industry. The total amount of mortgage originations is generally influenced by the level of new and existing home sales, interest rates, the percentage of homes purchased for cash, and the level of refinance activity. PMI market share of total mortgage originations is influenced by the mix of purchase and refinance originations. PMI market share is also impacted by the market share of total originations of the FHA and VA, and other alternatives to mortgage insurance, including GSE programs that may reduce or eliminate the demand for mortgage insurance. The increase in total mortgage originations in 2025 as compared with 2024 reflects a modest decrease in interest rates during 2025 contributing to an increase in refinance and purchase originations during the year. Total mortgage originations are forecasted to be higher in 2026, compared with 2025. E - Estimated, F- Forecast Source: Fannie Mae and MBA estimates/forecasts as of January 2026. Amounts represent the average of all sources. Competitive Environment The private mortgage insurance industry is highly competitive and is expected to remain so. We compete against five other private mortgage insurers, as well as governmental agencies, principally the FHA and VA. The total estimated mortgage insurance volume is shown below.

MGIC Investment Corporation 2025 Form 10-K | 45 PMI's market share is primarily impacted by competition from government mortgage insurance programs, particularly in segments of the market characterized by lower credit scores. The PMI industry's market share in 2025 decreased compared to the market share in 2024.

We believe that we currently compete with other private mortgage insurers based on premium rates, underwriting requirements, financial strength (including based on credit or financial strength ratings), customer relationships, name recognition, reputation, strength of management teams and field organizations, and the effective use of technology and innovation in the delivery and servicing of our mortgage insurance products. Pricing Practices Pricing has become a key competitive factor in the private mortgage insurance market, with an increasing number of customers prioritizing the lowest premium rate available for any particular loan. The industry has materially reduced its use of standard rate cards, which were fairly consistent among competitors, and correspondingly increased its use of (i) "risk-based pricing systems" that use a spectrum of filed rates to allow for formulaic, risk-based pricing based on multiple attributes that may be quickly adjusted within certain parameters, and (ii) customized rate plans pursuant to which rates may be available to customers for a defined period of time. We monitor various competitive and economic factors while seeking to balance both profitability and market share considerations in developing our pricing strategies. For information about competition in the private mortgage insurance industry, see our risk factor titled “Competition or changes in our relationships with our customers could reduce our revenues, reduce our premium yields and/or increase our losses" in Item 1A. PMIERs We operate under the requirements of the GSEs PMIERs and must maintain compliance with these requirements to be eligible to insure loans delivered to or purchased by that GSE. The PMIERs include financial requirements, as well as business, quality control and certain transaction approval requirements. The PMIERs provide that the GSEs may amend any provision of the PMIERs or impose additional requirements with an effective date specified by the GSEs. The financial requirements of the PMIERs require a mortgage insurer’s “Available Assets” (generally only the most liquid assets of an insurer) to equal or exceed its “Minimum Required Assets” (which are generally based on an insurer’s book of risk in force and calculated from tables of factors with several risk dimensions, reduced for credit given for risk ceded under reinsurance agreements, and subject to a floor amount). Based on our application of the PMIERs as of December 31, 2025, MGIC’s Available Assets totaled $5.7 billion, or $2.5 billion in excess of its Minimum Required Assets. MGIC is in compliance with the PMIERs and eligible to insure loans purchased by the GSEs; however, if our Available Assets fall below our Minimum Required Assets, we would not be in compliance with the PMIERs. Our ability to continue to comply with PMIERS financial requirements could be affected by several factors, including: •Amendments to PMIERs, or changes to the way the GSEs interpret the existing PMIERs. •An increase in the number of loan delinquencies. The PMIERs generally require us to hold significantly more Minimum Required Assets for delinquent loans than for performing loans, and the Minimum Required Assets required to be held increases as the number of payments missed on a delinquent loan increases. If we are required to hold more capital relative to our insured loans it could adversely affect our business and results of operations. •The credit we receive for the investments in our investment portfolio. Under PMIERs, specified assets are excluded, limited or haircut for purposes of being counted as Available Assets. •Changes to the amount of credit we receive for risk ceded under our QSR and XOL Transactions. Our reinsurance transactions enable us to earn higher returns on our Minimum Required Assets than we would without them because they generally reduce the Minimum Required Assets we must hold under PMIERs. For additional information see our risk factors titled "Our MGIC Investment Corporation 2025 Form 10-K | 46 underwriting practices and the mix of business we write affects our Minimum Required Assets under the PMIERs, our premium yields and the likelihood of losses occurring" and "Reinsurance may be unavailable at current levels and prices, and/or the GSEs may reduce the amount of capital credit we receive for our reinsurance transactions." in Item 1A. •Failure to meet certain transactional approval conditions imposed by PMIERs. Such failure may restrict or delay us from taking certain actions that would be advantageous to our investors. GSE Reform FHFA placed the GSEs into conservatorship on September 7, 2008 and the FHFA has the authority to control and direct their operations. Given that the Director of the FHFA serves at the pleasure of the President, the agency's agenda, policies and actions may be influenced by the then-current administration. Congress and executive branch officials have periodically proposed various plans for the reform of the GSEs, including through privatization and/or termination of FHFA's conservatorship. However, it is unclear what reforms will ultimately be implemented, if any, and what the time frame for any such reforms will be. The potential impact of any such plan on our business and financial results remains uncertain. For additional information about the business practices of the GSEs, see our risk factor titled “Changes in the business practices of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ("the GSEs"), federal legislation that changes their charters or a restructuring of the GSEs could reduce our revenues or increase our losses.” in Item 1A. State Regulations The insurance laws of 16 jurisdictions, including Wisconsin, our domiciliary state, require a mortgage insurer to maintain a minimum amount of statutory capital relative to its RIF (or a similar measure) in order for the mortgage insurer to continue to write new business. We refer to these requirements as the “State Capital Requirements.” While they vary among jurisdictions, the most common State Capital Requirements allow for a maximum risk-to-capital ratio of 25 to 1. A risk-to-capital ratio will increase if (i) the [Excerpt truncated for page length; the complete text is on the linked full-MD&A page.] Read the full FY 2025 MD&A: /company/MTG/mda/fy2025/ All MD&A years: /company/MTG/mda/ ## MD&A history Prior-year 10-K MD&A spans are extracted from SEC filings with the same bounded parser used for the latest filing.
