Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 Submitted August 11, 2025 CIK No. 0002067129 Dear Trevor Burgess: We have reviewed your amended draft registration statement and have the following comments. Please respond to this letter by providing the requested information and either submitting an amended draft registration statement or publicly filing your registration statement and non-public draft submissions on EDGAR. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response. After reviewing the information you provide in response to this letter and your amended draft registration statement or filed registration statement, we may have additional comments. Unless we note otherwise, any references to prior comments are to comments in our July 29, 2025 letter. Amended Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 Our Business Model, page 6 1. We note your disclosure in the risk factor on page 34 that capacity providers may seek "repayment of commissions." Revise your disclosure to discuss the conditions under which your capacity providers have the right to request repayment of commission that you have received. To the extent that you have had any material repayment obligations, please revise the flow chart on page 12 as well as revise the risk factor on page 34 to put the risk of repayment demands by capacity providers in the appropriate context. August 21, 2025 Page 2 Our Growth Strategy, page 12 2. We note your response to comment 7. Please tell us how you determined that your implementation of new technology and selling new policies will create growth without incurring material additional costs. Corporate Structure, page 18 3. We note the revisions that you made in response to comment 8. Please augment the second diagram on page 20 to include disclosures that show the impact to the voting and economic interests of the various shareholder groups assuming the completion of the Class B Stock Exchange and if Mr. Burgess exercises his rights under the Class B Equity Exchange Agreement. Reform or repeal of the Biggert-Waters Act could materially reduce sales, page 50 4. Revise this section to discuss prior changes to the Biggert-Waters Act, including the 2014 reform bill as well as subsequent rulemaking. Please further revise your disclosure to discuss any significant efforts to change the law in more recent periods. Investors must be able to accurately understand the possibility that there are currently efforts to change the legal underpinnings of private flood insurance. The Neptune Advantage, page 105 5. We note your response to comment 3 as well as your revised disclosure about how Triton and Poseidon provide you with a competitive advantage over other flood insurance providers and provide a value proposition for your policy holders and capacity providers. We also note that you state that the lack of access to NFIP data is a key barrier to entry keeping other insurers from entering this market. Please provide a discussion of management's view as to why you believe that data related to flood losses, beyond those collected through your own operational data, while potentially important to competitors who may want to enter this business, is not material to your own ability to accurately price insurance risks. Principal and Selling Stockholders, page 137 6. We note your disclosure that the table on this page does not reflect shares that may be purchased in the directed share program. Please revise the table and this disclosure to include disclosure that does reflect the anticipated purchases that named parties intend to make in the offering. Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, page F-5 7. We note your response to prior comment 21 indicating that the premium deposits represent advance payments received from policyholders, which are not the Company s customers, and therefore do not represent deferred revenue. We also note that these appear to be classified as contract liabilities in accordance with ASC 606 based on your disclosure on page F-10. Please address the following: Provide us with your analysis explaining your determination that the policyholders do not meet the definition of a customer. Tell us how these advanced payments meet the definition of contract liabilities, as August 21, 2025 Page 3 defined under ASC 606, if they do not yet represent funds received from a customer. Please also consider the need to revise your disclosures to clarify accordingly given your disclosure on page F-10 states that policyholder payments received in advance of commencement of the performance obligation are recorded as a contract liability. Your response describes scenarios and situations in which some portions are treated as a operating cash inflows and financing cash outflows. Provide us with an illustrative example demonstrating and describing the portions and amounts that you classify as operating and financing activities, as described in your response. In doing so, explain if and how the amounts classified as operating include or exclude amounts ultimately recognized as revenue by the Company. Note 10. Earnings Per Share, page F-16 8. We note the tabular presentation of the EPS calculation on page F-16 is labeled for the period ended December 31, 2024; however, the amounts appear to be derived from the six months ended June 30, 2024. Please revise to correct the typographical error or clarify accordingly. Please contact Sarmad Makhdoom at 202-551-5776 or Robert Klein at 202-551-3847 if you have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters. Please contact Eric Envall at 202-551-3234 or Christian Windsor at 202-551-3419 with any other questions.

Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 Submitted July 2, 2025 CIK No. 0002067129 Dear Trevor Burgess: We have reviewed your draft registration statement and have the following comments. Please respond to this letter by providing the requested information and either submitting an amended draft registration statement or publicly filing your registration statement on EDGAR. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response. After reviewing the information you provide in response to this letter and your amended draft registration statement or filed registration statement, we may have additional comments. Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 Company Overview, page 1 1. We note your disclosure that your business is highly profitable, including on page 1 and 2 of the Summary. We also note that on page page F-3 of your audited financial statements indicates that your total liabilities exceed your total assets in each of your last two fiscal years, leading to a substantial stockholders deficit. Please balance your discussion to clarify that your recent history of profitability has not yet resulted in a positive book value per share. Prospectus Summary, page 1 2. The disclosure in the prospectus summary should be a balanced presentation of your business. Please revise to balance the description of your competitive strengths July 29, 2025 Page 2 with disclosure of the challenges you face and the risks and limitations that could harm your business or inhibit your strategic plans. For example, but without limitation, balance your discussion of your competitive strengths and growth strategy with a discussion of the rapidly changing AI, cybersecurity, and federal disaster recovery regulatory structure and the inherent pricing headwinds when competing against the NFIP. The balancing discussion should be equally prominent in terms of presentation and level of detail. Our Unique, Data-Driven Approach, page 3 3. We note that you state that Triton and Poseidon are powered by your "vast proprietary datasets." We also note that you state that one of the key barriers to entry in the flood insurance market is that the NFIP has a proprietary database of claims data, which places private insurance carriers at a disadvantage in pricing risks. Please clarify whether the datasets that underly Triton and Poseidon contain a material amount of data derived from transactions, applications or losses from outside your own operational history. To the extent that you continue to lack access to historical loss data from the NFIP, please clarify how you are able to accurately evaluate the risks to properties covered by the NFIP were you offer excess coverage. 4. We note your disclosure on page 4, 7, 85, and 88 that compares your loss experience to that of the NFIP during the four largest flooding events that occurred since Neptune was founded. Please tell us, with a view towards enhance disclosure, the total number of properties covered by Neptune issued policies during those events, including particularly the flooding in Florida, North Carolina and Tennessee during Hurricane Helene. Underwriting, page 7 5. We note your disclosures that you do not retain any balance sheet risk or claims handling responsibilities while your capacity providers do. Since your capactity providers appear to bear the risks of loss in your business model, please revise the bar chart on page 7 to include disclosure that aggregates the written loss ratios for your capacity providers over this same period. In addition, please provide more detailed disclosure about how these relationships are contractual structured. Describe what your capacity providers are receiving in exchange for owning the higher percentage of risks and why written loss ratio is one of your key metrics when you do not bear the risks or claims responsibilities of your product. Our Geographic Presence, page 11 6. We note your disclosure on page 8 and 90 that you have a diverse number of capacity providers. We also note your disclosure that capacity providers must have liscences in states where they are proving capacities for the policies you sell. Tell us, with a view towards improved disclosure, if you have a limited number of capacity providers in any state that constitutes a significant portion of your total policy sales. July 29, 2025 Page 3 Our Growth Strategy, page 12 7. Please revise your disclosures in this section to better describe, and if possible, quantify the costs expected to be incurred in order for you to expand your customers and product offerings. For instance, we note that you discuss the potential to capture market share not only from existing properties that must carry flood insurance, but also to capture market share for buildings that have not been designated by FEMA as flood prone, but that you believe have heightened flood risk. Discuss the efforts you plan to undertake to increase the awareness of potential insured property owners and their agents of your products and the coverage that you offer. Corporate Structure, page 15 8. Please revise this section to include diagrams that show your corporate structure immediately before and immediately after the offering. Include figures that indicate the voting interests and economic interests of each group or entity. Rapid Advancements in AI..., page 24 9. Please revise this risk factor to include disclosures related to the risks to your business involved in the state and federal regulatory involvement in this space, Also include disclosure of how the current tariff landscape impacts your continued use and development of AI related technologies. In addition, please explain here or elsewhere the differences between the machine learning that underpins Triton, and AI and AGI. Errors in underwriting or data modeling could harm our reputation, competitive position, and financial results, page 25 10. We note your disclosure that "[t]here is a risk that federal agencies may reduce or eliminate climate-related data collection or public access to such data due to shifting priorities, funding constraints or policy changes which could impact Triton s ability to further refine its model and analysis on the basis of recently available data from government sources." Please update this risk factor to include any impacts that you have seen to your AI-driven systems or that you reasonable foresee since these reductions and eliminations have been announced and begun. We utilize AI in a significant manner, which could expose us to liability or adversely affect our business, page 26 11. We note your discussion in this risk factor regarding the regulatory framework for AI. Please revise your risk factor section to create a separately captioned risk factor that discusses your current and potential risks related to the rapid changes in this space. Increased commission requirements from our distribution partners could have an adverse impact on our profits, page 30 12. We note your reference the potential that you can yield contingent commissions. Revise your disclosure in this section to discuss the extent to which your results in the periods presented in the S-1 include any contingent commissions, either that may be earned or that have been forgone. July 29, 2025 Page 4 Our business is dependent upon information processing systems. Cybersecurity events, data breaches, cyberattacks..., page 35 13. Please incorporate into this risk factor disclosures that relate your experiences with these types of events, if any, in your recent operating history. Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 75 14. We note your disclosure on page 77 unlevered free cash flow with adjustments settled in cash, i.e., net cash used in investing activities and interest expense. Please tell us how you considered the guidance in Item 10(e)(1)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-K, which prohibits excluding charges that require cash settlement from a non-GAAP liquidity measure. Business, page 83 15. In order for investors to better understand your business, both in the origination of private flood insurance policies. Consider providing a flow chart showing the progress of a policy application from the policy holder, agent, Triton on through the capacity provider and any reinsurance that you may purchase to cede any risks not purchased by the capacity provider. Consider providing alternative presentations for any lines that are materially different. 16. In order for investors to better understand how an insured loss is processed through your system after a flood or other insured catastrophe, provide a flow chart showing the flow of a claim from the policy holder through to the capacity provider or reinsurer and the flow of funds back to the policy holder. Discuss any key actions that Neptune makes in this process. Principal and Selling Shareholders, page 116 17. We note your disclosure that the selling shareholders will be "entities affiliated" with BSIV Hold 102, LP and James D. Albert. Please identify these entities and indicate who has the voting and investment power of each entity. Choice or Forum, page 121 18. You disclose here that your restated certificate of incorporation "will provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware)" in certain enumerated legal actions or proceedings, and "that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act." Article XI of your restated certificate of incorporation does not appear to contain these provisions. Please revise your disclosures as necessary for consistency.

Refer to ASC 220-10-S99-5. Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, page F-6 21. We note your disclosure on page F-8 that insurance company payables together with premium deposits are considered fiduciary liabilities. We also note on page F-14 that premium deposits represent policyholder payments received in advance of commencement of the performance obligation and are recorded as contract liabilities. Please address the following: Given that the premium deposits appear to represent ASC 606 contract liabilities for payments received in advance of performance obligations, please explain how you considered the nature of the premium deposits to be fiduciary liabilities rather than deferred revenue. In this same regard, tell us how you determined to present the changes in premium deposits as cash flows from financing activities instead of operating activities. Refer to ASC 230-10-45-14 to 45-17. Note 1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation, page F-7 22. We note your disclosures of the corporate reorganization in April 2025 here and on page 15.
