NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1.
Basis of Presentation
The words “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Selective Insurance Group, Inc. (the “Parent”) and its subsidiaries, except as expressly indicated or the context requires otherwise. We have prepared our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) in conformity with (i) United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and (ii) the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. In preparing the Financial Statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Our Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that we consider normal, recurring, and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. Our Financial Statements cover the third quarters ended September 30, 2026 (“Third Quarter 2026”) and September 30, 2025 (“Third Quarter 2025”), and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2026 (“Nine Months 2026”) and September 30, 2025 (“Nine Months 2025”). Our Financial Statements do not include all information and disclosures required by GAAP and the SEC for audited annual financial statements. Because interim period results of operations are not necessarily indicative of full-year results, our Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC.
NOTE 2.
Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted no accounting pronouncements in Nine Months 2026.
Pronouncements to be effective in the future
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
(“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses. This ASU does not change the expense captions on the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. This ASU can be applied prospectively. Retrospective application and early adoption are permitted. As ASU 2024-03 only requires additional disclosure, it will not have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06,
Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)
(“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 updates the accounting guidance for internal-use software by eliminating references to software development project stages, thereby requiring companies to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the project and (ii) it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Amendments can be applied either (i) prospectively, (ii) through a modified transition approach based on the existing projects status and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or (iii) retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑11,
Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow‑Scope Improvements
(“ASU 2025‑11”). ASU 2025‑11 clarifies the scope, form, content, and disclosure requirements applicable to interim financial reporting under U.S. GAAP. The ASU improves the navigability of Topic 270 and provides clearer guidance on when the interim reporting requirements apply. Specifically, the amendments (i) clarify that Topic 270 applies to entities that provide interim financial statements and accompanying notes in accordance with GAAP, (ii) add a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures drawn from other FASB topics, and (iii) introduce a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events occurring after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The ASU is not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting, or expand or reduce existing disclosure requirements. ASU 2025‑11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Because ASU 2025‑11 primarily provides clarifying guidance and requires disclosures in certain circumstances, it will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

During Nine Months 2026 and Nine Months 2025, we had no write-offs or recoveries of our AFS fixed income securities.
For information on our methodology and significant inputs used to measure expected credit losses, our accounting policy for recognizing write-offs of uncollectible amounts, and our treatment of accrued interest, refer to Note 2. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report. Accrued interest on AFS securities was $
101.6
million as of September 30, 2026, and $
88.9
million as of December 31, 2025. We did not record any material write-offs of accrued interest in Nine Months 2026 or Nine Months 2025.

We currently do not intend to sell any of the securities summarized in the tables above, nor do we believe we will be required to sell any of them. The increase in gross unrealized losses at September 30, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025, was primarily driven by an increase in benchmark U.S. Treasury rates. Considering these factors and our review of these securities under our credit loss policy as described in Note 2. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report, we have concluded that no additional allowance for credit loss is required on these balances beyond the allowance for credit loss recorded as of September 30, 2026. This conclusion reflects our current judgment about the financial position and future prospects of the entities that issued the investment security and underlying collateral.

We are contractually committed to make additional investments up to the remaining commitments stated above. We did not provide any non-contractual financial support during Nine Months 2026 or 2025.
(e) We have pledged certain AFS fixed income securities as collateral related to our borrowing relationships with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBI”) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”). We also had certain securities on deposit with various state and regulatory agencies at September 30, 2026, to comply with insurance laws. We retain all rights regarding all securities pledged as collateral.

During Nine Months 2026, we transferred securities with a fair value of $
581.7
million from Level 3 to Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. These investments were primarily corporate securities, CLOs and other ABS that were transferred in the second quarter of 2026, as we transitioned to a matrix-pricing methodology that provides sufficient observable inputs to support Level 2 classification and eliminates the prior need to rely on significant unobservable inputs in determining fair value.
The following tables present quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of Level 3 assets at September 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025:

Other is comprised of broker quotes or other third-party pricing for which there is a lack of transparency into the inputs used to develop the valuations. The quantitative details of these unobservable inputs are neither provided to us, nor reasonably available to us, and therefore are not included in the tables above.
For the securities in the tables above valued using a discounted cash flow analysis, we apply an illiquidity spread in determining fair value. An increase in this assumption would result in a lower fair value measurement.
The following tables provide quantitative information about our financial assets and liabilities that were not measured at fair value, but were disclosed as such at September 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025:

Favorable prior year property reserve development was $
22.5
million in Nine Months 2026. We did not record any favorable or unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development in Nine Months 2026.
Prior year reserve development in Nine Months 2025 was unfavorable by $
70.1
million, consisting of $
90.0
million of unfavorable casualty reserve development, partially offset by $
19.9
million of favorable property reserve development. Our Standard Commercial Lines segment drove the unfavorable casualty reserve development consisting of (i) $
60.0
million in our commercial automobile line of business, related to severities primarily in accident years 2022 through 2024 and (ii) $
20.0
million in our general liability line of business, driven by higher severities on umbrella coverages related to commercial automobile claims, primarily in accident years 2022 and 2023. We also had an unfavorable development of $
10.0
million in our personal automobile line of business, primarily related to increased severities in accident year 2024.
NOTE 9.
Segment Information
We evaluate the results of our
four
reportable segments as follows:
•
Our Standard Commercial Lines, Standard Personal Lines, and E&S Lines are evaluated on (i) before and after-tax underwriting results (net premiums earned, incurred loss and loss expense, policyholder dividends, policy acquisition costs, and other underwriting expenses), (ii) their return on equity (“ROE”) contribution, and (iii) their combined ratios.
•
Our Investments segment is primarily evaluated on after-tax net investment income and its ROE contribution. After-tax net realized and unrealized gains and losses are also included in our Investments segment results.
When computing each segment's results, we do not adjust for interest expense or corporate expenses. No segment has a separate investment portfolio or allocated assets.

The Pension Plan is closed to new entrants, and its benefits ceased accruing after March 31, 2016.

Related Party Transactions
Vanguard, one of the world’s largest investment management companies, previously reported that it had purchased our common shares in the ordinary course of its investment business and had previously filed Schedules 13G/A with the SEC. Based on their February 13, 2024 filing of Schedule 13G/A, their beneficial ownership was
10.24
% of our common stock as of December 29, 2023.
Subsequently, on March 27, 2026, The Vanguard Group, Inc. filed a Schedule 13G/A with the SEC indicating that due to an internal alignment, The Vanguard Group, Inc. will report beneficial interests on a disaggregated basis from its subsidiaries or business units. On April 29, 2026, Vanguard Portfolio Management filed a Schedule 13G reporting that it held
5.87
% of the Parent’s common shares as of March 31, 2026. On April 30, 2026, Vanguard Capital Management filed a Schedule 13G reporting that it held
5.24
% of the Parent’s common shares as of March 31, 2026. Both of these amounts are below the related party disclosure threshold.
NOTE 15.
Litigation
We are not involved in any legal action that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
In the ordinary course of conducting business, we are parties in various legal actions. Most matters involve claims litigation handled by our
ten
insurance subsidiaries (collectively, the “Insurance Subsidiaries
”
) in their capacities as: (i) liability insurers defending or indemnifying third-party claims brought against our customers; (ii) insurers responding to first-party coverage claims; or (iii) liability insurers seeking declaratory judgments regarding coverage obligations. We recognize these matters through unpaid loss and loss expense reserves. Considering potential losses and defense costs reserves, we expect that any potential ultimate liability for ordinary course claims litigation will not be material to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
From time to time, our Insurance Subsidiaries are named as defendants in other legal actions, including some alleging large or indeterminate amounts. Plaintiffs may style these actions as class actions and seek judicial certification of a state or national class for allegations involving our business practices, including allegations related to medical provider reimbursement under workers compensation or automobile insurance policies, or reimbursement practices involving automobile parts. Similarly, our Insurance Subsidiaries can be named defendants in individual actions seeking extra-contractual damages, punitive damages, or penalties, often alleging bad faith in handling insurance claims. We believe we have valid defenses to these allegations, and we account for such activity by establishing unpaid loss and loss expense reserves. Considering estimated losses, defense costs reserves, and reasonably possible losses in excess of amounts accrued, we expect that any potential ultimate liability for these other legal actions will not be material to our consolidated financial condition. Litigation outcomes are inherently unpredictable, and certain matters involve large or indeterminate amounts. Adverse outcomes could materially affect our consolidated results of operations or cash flows in the period in which they occur.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Forward-Looking Statements
The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Selective Insurance Group, Inc. (the “Parent”) and its subsidiaries, except as expressly indicated or the context otherwise requires. Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q, including information incorporated by reference, are “forward‑looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”). The PSLRA provides a safe harbor for forward‑looking statements under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Forward‑looking statements include our expectations, intentions, beliefs, projections, estimates, or forecasts regarding future events or financial performance. In some cases, forward‑looking statements may be identified by words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “potential,” “pro forma,” “seek,” “target,” “continue,” “outlook,” “guidance,” “forecast,” “goal,” “likely,” or the negative of such terms or other variations or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, activity levels, or performance to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward‑looking statements. We discuss factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward‑looking statements in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and in our subsequent reports and filings with the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These risk factors may not be exhaustive. We operate in a continually changing business environment, and new risk factors may emerge at any time. We cannot predict these new factors, their potential impact on our business, or the extent to which any factor – or combination of factors – may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward‑looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are predictions based on the Company’s current expectations and assumptions regarding future events. They are not guarantees or assurances of any outcomes, financial results, levels of activity, performance or achievements, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward‑looking statements, except as may be required by applicable law.
Introduction
We classify our business into four reportable segments:
•
Standard Commercial Lines;
•
Standard Personal Lines;
•
Excess and Surplus Lines (“E&S Lines”); and
•
Investments.
For additional information about these segments, refer to Note 9. “Segment Information” in Item 1. “Financial Statements.” of this Form 10-Q and Note 12. “Segment Information” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Annual Report”).
We write our Standard Commercial and Standard Personal Lines products and services through nine of our insurance subsidiaries, some of which participate in the federal government's National Flood Insurance Program's (“NFIP”) Write Your Own Program. We write our E&S products through another subsidiary, Mesa Underwriters Specialty Insurance Company, a nationally authorized non-admitted carrier for customers who generally cannot obtain coverage in the standard marketplace. Collectively, we refer to our ten insurance subsidiaries as the “Insurance Subsidiaries.”
The following is Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of our financial condition and consolidated results of operations, including an evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows from operations and outside sources, trends, and uncertainties that may have a material impact in future periods. Investors should read the MD&A in conjunction with Item 1. “Financial Statements.” of this Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements in our 2025 Annual Report filed with the SEC.
In the MD&A, we discuss and analyze the following:
•

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include amounts for which we have made informed estimates and judgments for transactions not yet completed. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements. Our 2025 Annual Report outlines the estimates and judgments most critical to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements: (i) reserve for loss and loss expense; (ii) investment valuation and the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale (“AFS”) fixed income securities; and (iii) reinsurance. These estimates and judgments require our use of assumptions about highly uncertain matters that could change as facts and circumstances develop. Different estimates or judgments could result in materially different reported amounts. For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to pages 38 through 45 of our 2025 Annual Report.

Non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating income (loss) per diluted common share, and non-GAAP operating ROE are comparable to net income (loss) available to common stockholders, net income (loss) available to common stockholders per diluted common share, and ROE, respectively, but exclude after-tax net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments included in net income (loss). Adjusted book value per common share is comparable to book value per common share, but excludes total after-tax unrealized gains and losses on investments included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These non-GAAP measures are important financial measures used by us, analysts, and investors because the timing of realized and unrealized investment gains and losses on securities in any given period is largely discretionary. In addition, net realized and unrealized investment gains and losses on investments could distort the analysis of trends.

In Third Quarter 2026
, we delivered an ROE of 15.1% and a non-GAAP operating ROE of 16.9%, higher by 1.1 points and 3.7 points, respectively, compared to
Third Quarter 2025
. Improved underwriting results complemented strong after-tax net investment income of $127 million, which was up 16% from a year ago. The overall combined ratio of
96.8%
for Third Quarter 2026 was
1.8
points better than
98.6%
in Third Quarter 2025 and reflected a lower loss and loss expense ratio, partially offset by higher underwriting expenses. There was no prior year casualty reserve development in any segment or line of business in the quarter. Total insurance operations contributed
3.5
points of ROE in Third Quarter 2026, a
1.9-
point increase from the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by improvement in Standard Commercial Lines.
29
Table of Contents
On a year-to-date basis, our
13.8% ROE
and
14.3%
operating ROE were both higher than the
13.0%
and
12.6%
, respectively, generated in
Nine Months 2025
. Similar to the quarter, strong net investment income and underwriting performance in
Nine Months 2026
drove the improvement.
Outlook
In
Third Quarter 2026
, we marked our ninth consecutive quarter of double-digit operating returns with an operating ROE of 16.9%, and returned $81 million to common stockholders through regular dividends and opportunistic share repurchases, reinforcing our commitment to delivering long-term value. As Selective celebrated its 100th anniversary this year, we are proud of our history, the work our employees do, and the value we deliver our policyholders, distribution partners, and shareholders. We remain focused on a set of key priorities across the company to drive future success, including:
•
Relentlessly improving on the fundamentals across risk selection, individual policy pricing, and claims outcomes. Risk selection, granular and accurate risk pricing, and prompt, fair claims adjudication are foundational capabilities we have built over many decades and remain focused on today.
•
Diversifying revenue and income within and across our three insurance segments. Growth levers include achieving greater market share and segment diversification in Standard Commercial Lines, potential geographic expansion in Standard Personal Lines, and increasing our product and distribution capabilities in E&S Lines and other specialty lines.
•
Further leveraging the use of data analytics and technology, including general-purpose, industry-trained, and agentic artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions, to drive operational efficiency and improved underwriting and claim outcomes. Early AI successes in claims, underwriting, and risk management are delivering measurable outcomes in accuracy, speed, and productivity, positioning us to responsibly scale AI across the organization. We have also made considerable progress in modernizing our policy acquisition and claims systems. For example, system enhancements in our E&S Lines segment have created significant operational efficiency, positioning us for premium growth with limited headcount additions.
•
Building a connected, accountable, and empowered organization by developing talent and aligning on prioritized goals.
We remain committed to making strategic investments that fuel continued growth, innovation, and performance excellence. As we position ourselves for the future, we have several strategies to grow market share profitably over time:
•
In our existing footprint, we are focused on growing with existing partners and strategically appointing new agency locations. During Nine Months 2026, we added 120 agency locations and we had a net increase of 100 agency locations in 2025.
•
Careful and deliberate geographic expansion. Since 2017, we have added sixteen states to our Standard Commercial Lines footprint, including Montana and Wyoming as of July 1, 2026. In Nine Months 2026, these expansion states produced $351 million in premium, representing approximately 8% of total direct premiums written.
Our full-year expectations for 2026 are as follows:
•
A GAAP combined ratio of 96.5% to 97.5%, including net catastrophe losses of 5.5 points. Our combined ratio estimate assumes no prior year casualty reserve development, as we record our best estimate each quarter. We do not make assumptions about future reserve development;
•
After-tax net investment income of $490 million, up from prior guidance of $480 million;
•
An overall effective tax rate of 21.5%; and
•
Weighted average shares of 59.9 million on a fully diluted basis, reflecting the shares repurchased in Nine Months 2026 and assuming no additional repurchases under our share repurchase authorizations.

Lower NPW
in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods reflect reduced new business in a competitive environment and our granular pricing actions to drive lower retention on underperforming business.
Retention in our Standard Commercial Lines segment reflects these actions at 82% in
Third Quarter 2026 and 81% in Nine Months 2026.
While enhancing underwriting profitability is a primary focus, we are also executing on strategies to support future growth opportunities, including expanding our geographic footprint and broadening our E&S distribution capabilities with retail access.

The loss and loss expense ratio improved in both Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the prior-year periods. There was no prior year casualty reserve development recorded this year, compared to unfavorable development in both the quarter and year-to-date periods last year. Current year casualty loss costs were lower in Third Quarter 2026 compared to
Third Quarter 2025
reflecting the earned impact of the rate and underwriting actions during the quarter, while in Nine Months 2026, this improvement was offset by the increased loss trend assumptions that we recognized over the course of 2025 that are included in our expectations for 2026. In both Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026, property losses were higher compared to the prior-year periods due to normal variability in these losses.
As the table illustrates above, there was no prior year casualty reserve development in any segment or line of business in Third Quarter 2026 or Nine Months 2026. The unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development in
Third Quarter 2025
and
Nine Months 2025
was primarily driven by (i) our commercial automobile line of business that experienced increased severities in accident years 2022 through 2024 and (ii) umbrella claims within our general liability line of business driven by commercial automobile losses in accident years 2022 and 2023.
Underwriting Expenses
Our underwriting expense ratio increased 1.5 points and 0.4 points in
Third Quarter 2026
and
Nine Months 2026
, respectively, compared to the prior-year periods, as lower NPE has put pressure on our underwriting expense ratio.

Lower NPW
in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to
Third Quarter 2025 and Nine Months 2025
reflected reduced new business and targeted actions on our renewal portfolio. Stronger new business pricing, informed by our view of expected loss trends, combined with a competitive environment, drove lower acquisition rates on new business. We are leveraging our granular insights and differentiated operating model to drive higher renewal retention on our best-performing business and meaningfully lower retention on our underperforming business through appropriate rating and underwriting actions. While overall rate increases have moderated and retention has been impacted, we expect these mix improvement actions to contribute to improved profitability.

The loss and loss expense ratio decreased
4.8
points in
Third Quarter 2026
compared to
Third Quarter 2025
,
primarily due to (i)
no
n
et prior year casualty reserve development in the current year quarter compared to 3.7 points of unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development in the year-ago quarter and (ii) lower current year casualty loss costs.
These items were
partially offset by period-to-period variability in property losses.
In
Nine Months 2026, the loss and loss expense ratio decreased 1.3 points compared to Nine Months 2025, with higher current year loss costs and catastrophe losses more than offset by improvements in prior year casualty reserve development and non-catastrophe losses. The increase in catastrophe losses was
driven by higher frequency and severity of winter storms and thunderstorm events that impacted our footprint this year compared to last.
The details of the prior year casualty reserve development by line of business were as follows:

Prior year casualty reserve development in Third Quarter 2025 and Nine Months 2025 reflected (i) increased severities in accident years 2022 through 2024 in our commercial automobile line of business and (ii) increased severities in accident years 2022 and 2023 within our umbrella coverages in our general liability line of business related to commercial automobile claims.

Table of Contents
Current year casualty loss costs were lower in Third Quarter 2026 compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting the earned impact of pricing and underwriting actions taken to improve rate adequacy. Higher current year casualty loss costs in
Nine Months 2026
reflected the
increased loss trend assumptions we recognized throughout 2025 and included in our expectations for 2026. Elevated severity trend assumptions
attributable to social inflation on our general liability and commercial automobile liability lines of business, as well as elevated commercial automobile claim frequencies relative to expectations, drove the increase in current year casualty loss costs in
Nine Months 2026
. These increases were partially offset by lower workers compensation loss trends from decreasing claim frequencies in our 2026 expectations.
Underwriting Expenses
Our underwriting expense ratio increased 1.6 points in
Third Quarter 2026
compared to Third Quarter 2025, as lower NPE has put pressure on our underwriting expense ratio.

NPW was down in Third Quarter 2026 and

compared to the same prior-year periods, reflecting deliberate actions to enhance underwriting profitability. In sectors and markets where pricing does not align with our view of rate need, we are taking targeted underwriting actions, including (i) revising underwriting guidelines, (ii) tightening coverage offerings, and (iii) reducing writings.
NPE decreased 3% in Third Quarter 2026 and increased 3% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. The Third Quarter 2026 decline reflected the earned impact of lower NPW this year, while the Nine Months 2026 increase reflected NPW growth last year.
The combined ratio was flat in Third Quarter 2026 and decreased 0.6 points in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods, driven by a lower loss and loss expense ratio partially offset by higher underwriting expenses. The components of the loss and loss expense ratio follow:

The general liability line of business has experienced a long-term historical trend of meaningful severity increases, partially offset by claim frequency decreases. We attribute the increased severities to elevated social inflation, which we view as an industry dynamic characterized by higher claimant propensity for attorney representation and litigation, longer settlement times, and higher settlement values. Certain jurisdictions with expanded liability theories and higher damage awards pose increased challenges. We are closely monitoring these jurisdictions and the broader trends across our business.

Table of Contents
These dynamics have impacted our view of current year loss costs. T
he increased loss trend assumptions that we recognized over the course of 2025 that are included in our expectations for 2026, drove
a 0.7-point increase in current year loss costs in
Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year period. In Third Quarter 2026, however, current year casualty loss costs decreased 2.5 points compared to the year-ago quarter, reflecting the earned impact of the rate and underwriting actions.
We did not record any prior year casualty reserve development in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026. We recorded $20 million of unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development in Nine Months 2025, which was driven by increased severities on umbrella coverages related to commercial automobile claims, in accident years 2022 and 2023.
The underwriting expense ratio increased 2.5 points in
Third Quarter 2026
compared to Third Quarter 2025, and 0.9 points in Nine Months 2026 compared to Nine Months 2025, as lower NPE has put pressure on our underwriting expense ratio

NPW decreased 11% in Third Quarter 2026 and 7% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods,
driven by underwriting actions to improve profitability, such as achieving renewal pure price increases and tightening underwriting guidelines for fleet exposures
. Lower renewal pure price increases this year compared to last were driven by a reduction in rates for physical damage that were partially offset by higher commercial automobile liability rates.
NPE decreased 4% in
Third Quarter 2026 and slightly increased in Nine Months 2026

We did not record any prior year casualty reserve development in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026, compared to unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development of $35.0 million in Third Quarter 2025 and $60.0 million in Nine Months 2025, driven by increased severities in the state of New Jersey for accident years 2022 through 2024. Current year casualty loss costs were lower in Third Quarter 2026 compared to the same prior-year period, primarily reflecting the earned impact of pricing and underwriting actions taken to improve rate adequacy and profitability, while in Nine Months 2026 compared to Nine Months 2025, this improvement was offset by
the increased loss trend assumptions we recognized throughout 2025 that are included in our expectations for 2026.
In the aggregate, net catastrophe and non-catastrophe property losses were 1.4 points lower in Third Quarter 2026 and 1.8 points lower in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. This reduction was driven by (i) the earned impact of renewal pure price increases and (ii) period-to-period variability of catastrophe and non-catastrophe property losses.

In the aggregate, net catastrophe and non-catastrophe property losses were higher in both Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. The increase in net catastrophe losses was driven by
higher frequency and severity of winter storms and thunderstorm events that impacted our footprint this year compared to last. This was partially offset by lower non-catastrophe property losses due to normal period-to-period variability in property losses.

NPW decreased 6% in Third Quarter 2026 and 6% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods, primarily due to negative rate changes and lower new business. The rate level reductions were driven by continued decreases in workers compensation rating bureau loss costs, which form the basis for our filed rating plans, and heavily influence marketplace pricing for this line of business. Additionally, retention was lower compared to the same prior-year periods, resulting from underwriting actions taken to improve profitability.
The combined ratio decreased 5.0 points in Third Quarter 2026 and 5.6 points in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods and included the following:

Lower current year casualty loss costs in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods were primarily driven by decreased claim frequencies leading to improved loss trends. In addition, the combined ratio benefited from a 1.3-point reduction in the underwriting expense ratio in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year period, primarily driven by lower commissions on this line of business.

Lower NPW and NPE in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods were driven by reductions in direct new business and lower renewal pure price increases. New business decreased 36% in Third Quarter 2026 and 29% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods, driven by (i) market conditions, including an increasingly competitive market for auto insurance and (ii) restrictions we have in place to manage overall growth in the State of New Jersey. We have received regulatory approvals for increased rate levels in most of our footprint states and are focused on growth in our target market segment where we believe our rates are adequate. In Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 we achieved renewal pure price increases of 8.1% and 9.3%, respectively.

The loss and loss expense ratio decreased 10.8 points in Third Quarter 2026 and 4.4 points in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. The absence of unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development in the 2026 periods contributed 4.9 points to this variance for the quarter and 3.3 points for the year-to-date period. Prior year casualty reserve development was as follows:

The unfavorable prior year casualty reserve development of $5.0 million in Third Quarter 2025 and $10.0 million in Nine Months 2025 was primarily driven by increased severities in accident year 2024 related to the New Jersey portfolio.

Table of Contents
Lower non-catastrophe property losses and current year casualty loss costs reduced the loss and loss expense ratio in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. The decrease in non-catastrophe property losses was primarily due to normal period-to-period variability associated with such losses. These amounts were partially offset by higher net catastrophe losses compared to the same prior-year periods due to higher frequency and severity of weather-related catastrophe events impacting our footprint.
Underwriting Expenses
Our underwriting expense ratio increased 4.0 points and 1.6 points in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026, respectively, compared to the prior-year periods, as lower NPE has put pressure on our underwriting expense ratio.

Increased competition in the marketplace and our continued underwriting discipline contributed to a decline in NPW of 2% in Third Quarter 2026 and 1% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. This NPW decline was primarily due to more capacity entering the excess and surplus lines marketplace and the admitted markets' expansion in appetite for business previously written by excess and surplus lines companies. NPW included the impact of the following:

Despite the decline in NPW during 2026, NPE grew 1% in Third Quarter 2026 and 4% in Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods, driven by growth in NPW in 2025 and the corresponding earnings of those premiums written.

The loss and loss expense ratio increased 10.3 points in Third Quarter 2026 compared to Third Quarter 2025, impacted by (i) higher current year casualty loss costs, primarily driven by higher embedded severity assumptions due to social inflation, (ii) higher non-catastrophe property loss and loss expenses, reflecting normal period-to-period variability associated with property losses, and (iii) higher net catastrophe losses due to higher frequency and severity of weather-related events that impacted our footprint.
The loss and loss expense ratio increased 3.5 points in Nine Months 2026 compared to Nine Months 2025. In Nine Months 2026, higher current year casualty loss costs and non-catastrophe property losses were partially offset by lower net catastrophe losses compared to Nine Months 2025, which included losses from the California Palisades Fire that impacted the first quarter of 2025.
Reinsurance
We successfully completed negotiations of our July 1, 2026 excess of loss treaties that cover Standard Commercial Lines, Standard Personal Lines, and E&S Lines.
We renewed the Casualty Excess of Loss Treaty (“Casualty Treaty
”
) with coverage for $87 million in excess of a $3 million retention per loss occurrence, which is the same as the expiring treaty. We continue to retain a portion of the first layer through an 8% co-participation, compared to a 20% co-participation in the expiring treaty. The 2026 treaty year deposit premium increased primarily due to increased premium rates and lower co-participation in the first layer.
We also renewed the Property Excess of Loss Treaty (“Property Treaty
”
) with the same retention as the expiring treaty, but with a $20 million increase in limit. The treaty now provides coverage for $115 million in excess of a $5 million retention for losses on a per-risk basis. The treaty year deposit premium decreased modestly, primarily driven by a reduction in rates.
The following table summarizes the Casualty Treaty and Property Treaty arrangements covering our Insurance Subsidiaries:
Treaty Name
Reinsurance Coverage
Terrorism Coverage
Casualty Treaty (covers all insurance operations)
There are six layers covering $87 million in excess of $3 million. Losses other than terrorism losses are subject to the following:
- 92% of $3 million in excess of $3 million layer provides 81 reinstatements, $246 million annual aggregate limit;
- 100% of $6 million in excess of $6 million layer provides 15 reinstatements, $96 million annual aggregate limit;
- 100% of $9 million in excess of $12 million layer provides three reinstatements, $36 million annual aggregate limit;
- 100% of $9 million in excess of $21 million layer provides one reinstatement, $18 million annual aggregate limit;
- 100% of $20 million in excess of $30 million layer provides one reinstatement, $40 million annual aggregate limit; and
- 100% of $40 million in excess of $50 million layer provides one reinstatement, $80 million annual aggregate limit.
x.x
All NBCR losses are excluded. All other losses stemming from the acts of terrorism are subject to the following:
- 92% of $3 million in excess of $3 million layer with $15 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit;
- 100% of $6 million in excess of $6 million layer with $30 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit;
- 100% of $9 million in excess of $12 million layer with $27 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit;
- 100% of $9 million in excess of $21 million layer with $18 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit;
- 100% of $20 million in excess of $30 million layer with $40 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit; and
- 100% of $40 million in excess of $50 million layer with $80 million net annual terrorism aggregate limit.
Property Treaty (covers all insurance operations)
There are three layers covering 100% of $115 million in excess of $5 million. Losses other than Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (“TRIPRA”) certified losses are subject to the following reinstatements and annual aggregate limits:
- $5 million in excess of $5 million layer provides 15 reinstatements, $80 million in aggregate limits;
- $30 million in excess of $10 million layer provides four reinstatements, $150 million in aggregate limits; and
- $80 million in excess of $40 million layer provides one reinstatement, $160 million in aggregate limits.
All nuclear, biological, chemical, and radioactive (“NBCR”) losses are excluded regardless of whether or not they are certified under the TRIPRA. For non-NBCR losses, the treaty distinguishes between acts committed on behalf of foreign persons or foreign interests (“Foreign Terrorism”) and those that are not. The treaty provides annual aggregate limits for Foreign Terrorism (other than NBCR) acts of $15 million for the first layer, $60 million for the second layer, and $80 million for the third layer. Non-Foreign Terrorism losses (other than NBCR) are covered to the same extent as non-terrorism losses.
Investments
Our Investments segment's objectives are to maximize the economic value of our investment portfolio by achieving stable, risk-adjusted after-tax net investment income and generating long-term growth in book value per share. Our strategies consider prevailing market conditions, our enterprise risk tolerances, and other risk implications by:
•
Maximizing the portfolio's overall total return by investing (i) the premiums from our insurance operations, (ii) amounts generated through our capital management strategies, including debt and equity security issuances, and (iii) profits of our business; and
•
Maintaining (i) a well-diversified portfolio across issuers, sectors, and asset classes and (ii) a fixed income securities portfolio with high credit quality and acceptable duration and maturity profiles to provide ample liquidity.
40
Table of Contents
The effective duration of our fixed income and short-term investments was 4.5 years as of September 30, 2026. We monitor and manage the effective duration to maximize yield while managing interest rate risk at an acceptable level. We buy and sell investments with the intent of maximizing investment returns in the current market environment, while balancing capital preservation and ensuring adequate liquidity to support our insurance business.
Our fixed income and short-term investments represented 91% of invested assets at September 30, 2026, and 92% at
December 31, 2025, and
had a weighted average credit rating of “A+” as of both dates. Investment grade holdings represented 96% of the total fixed income and short-term investment portfolio as of September 30, 2026, and 97% as of December 31, 2025.
For further details on the composition, credit quality, and various risks to which our portfolio is subject, see Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.” of our 2025 Annual Report.

The change in net realized and unrealized investment losses in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to net realized and unrealized investment gains in the same prior-year periods, was primarily driven by (i) a decrease in valuations reflecting the current public equities market and (ii) an increase in net credit loss expense on fixed income investments, primarily due to higher interest rates in Third Quarter 2026 and Nine Months 2026 compared to the same prior-year periods. The higher interest rates increased unrealized losses on our fixed income investments, thereby increasing the amount of recognized credit losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital resources and liquidity reflect our ability to generate cash flows from business operations, borrow funds at competitive rates, and raise new capital to meet our operating and growth needs.
Liquidity
We manage liquidity by generating sufficient cash flows to meet our business operations' short-term and long-term cash requirements. We adjust our liquidity requirements based on economic conditions, market conditions, and future cash flow commitments, as discussed further below.
Sources of Liquidity
The Parent's sources of cash historically have consisted of dividends from the Insurance Subsidiaries, the Parent's investment portfolio, borrowings under third-party lines of credit, intercompany revolving demand loan agreements with certain Insurance Subsidiaries, and the issuance of equity (common or preferred) and debt securities. We continue to monitor these sources, considering our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital preservation strategies.

Table of Contents
The amount and composition of the Parent's investment portfolio may change over time based on various factors, including the amount and availability of dividends from our Insurance Subsidiaries, investment income, expenses, other Parent cash needs, such as dividends payable to stockholders, asset allocation investment decisions, inorganic growth opportunities, debt retirement, and share repurchases. We have an established target for the Parent to maintain liquid investments of at least twice its expected annual net cash outflow needs.
Insurance Subsidiary Dividends
The Insurance Subsidiaries generate liquidity through insurance float, created by collecting premiums and earning investment income before paying claims. The float period can extend over many years. Our investment portfolio consists of securities with maturity dates that continually provide a source of cash flow for claims payments in the ordinary course of business. To protect our Insurance Subsidiaries' capital, we purchase reinsurance coverage for significantly large claims or catastrophes that may occur.
The Insurance Subsidiaries paid $230 million in total dividends to the Parent in Nine Months 2026. As of December 31, 2025, our allowable ordinary maximum dividend is $466 million for 2026. All Insurance Subsidiary dividends to the Parent are (i) subject to the approval and/or review of its domiciliary state insurance regulator and (ii) generally payable only from earned statutory surplus reported in its annual statements as of the preceding December 31. Although domiciliary state insurance regulators have historically approved Insurance Subsidiary dividends, there is no assurance they will approve future dividends.
New Jersey corporate law also limits the maximum amount of dividends the Parent can pay our stockholders if either (i) the Parent would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or (ii) the Parent’s total assets would be less than its total liabilities. The Parent’s ability to pay dividends to stockholders is also impacted by (i) covenants in its credit agreement that obligate it, among other things, to maintain a minimum consolidated net worth and a maximum ratio of consolidated debt to total capitalization, and (ii) the terms of our preferred stock that prohibit dividends from being declared or paid on our common stock if dividends are not declared and paid, or made payable, on all outstanding preferred stock for the latest completed dividend period.
For additional information regarding dividend restrictions and financial covenants, where applicable, see Note 11. “Indebtedness,” Note 17. “Equity,” and Note 22. “Statutory Financial Information, Capital Requirements, and Restrictions on Dividends and Transfers of Funds” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report.
Line of Credit
On June 30, 2025, the Parent entered into a Credit Agreement with the lenders named therein (the “Lenders”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“Line of Credit”). Under the Line of Credit, the Lenders have agreed to provide the Parent with a $100 million revolving credit facility that can be increased to $200 million with the Lenders' consent. The Line of Credit will mature on June 30, 2028, and has a
variable interest rate based on the Parent’s debt ratings. In the second quarter of 2026, we executed a $1.0 million
overnight borrowing on the Line of Credit as a periodic validation of processes for accessing capital and liquidity resources.
No additional borrowings were made under the Line of Credit in Nine Months 2026. For additional information regarding the Line of Credit and corresponding representations, warranties, and covenants, see Note 11. “In
debtedness” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report.
Four Insurance Subsidiaries are members of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) branches, as shown in the following table. Membership requires the ownership of branch stock and includes the right to access liquidity. All Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBI”) and Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) borrowings are required to be secured by investments pledged as collateral. For additional information regarding collateral outstanding, refer to Note 4. “Investments” in Item 1. “Financial Statements.” of this Form 10-Q.

These subsidiaries are jointly referred to as the “Indiana Subsidiaries” because they are domiciled in Indiana.
The Line of Credit permits aggregate borrowings from the FHLBI and the FHLBNY up to 10% of the respective member company’s admitted assets for the previous year. SICNY is domiciled in New York, which limits its FHLBNY borrowings to the lesser of 5% of admitted assets for the most recently completed fiscal quarter or 10% of the previous year-end's admitted assets. As of September 30, 2026, we had remaining capacity of $691.4 million for FHLB borrowings, with a $28.6 million additional stock purchase requirement to allow the member companies to borrow their remaining capacity amounts. We currently have a $60 million borrowing outstanding from FHLBI, which is due for repayment on December 16, 2026.

Table of Contents
Short-term Borrowings
We made no material short-term borrowings from FHLB branches during Nine Months 2026; however in the second quarter of 2026
,
we executed an insignificant overnight borrowing from FHLBNY as a periodic validation of processes for accessing capital and liquidity resources.
Intercompany Loan Agreements
The Parent has lending agreements with the Indiana Subsidiaries, approved by the Indiana Department of Insurance, that provide the Parent with additional intercompany liquidity. Like the Line of Credit, these lending agreements limit the Parent’s borrowings from the Indiana Subsidiaries to 10% of the admitted assets of the respective Indiana Subsidiary. The outstanding balance on these intercompany loans was $35.0 million as of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The remaining capacity under these intercompany loan agreements was $198.0 million as of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We have other insurance regulator-approved intercompany agreements that facilitate liquidity management between the Parent and the Insurance Subsidiaries to enhance flexibility.
Capital Market Activities
The Parent had no private or public stock issuances during Nine Months 2026.
In October 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase issued and outstanding shares of common stock up to $200 million, exclusive of any excise tax impact. During Nine Months 2026, we repurchased 1,300,663 shares of our common stock for $116.9 million, excluding commissions paid and estimated excise tax. We had $53.1 million of remaining capacity under that program as of September 30, 2026.
On October 22, 2026, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase issued and outstanding shares of common stock up to $200 million, exclusive of any excise tax impact, bringing the total available for repurchases to $253.1 million. This new program is effective as of immediately following the completion of the repurchases authorized under the prior stock repurchase program and has no expiration date.
Uses of Liquidity
The Parent uses the liquidity generated from the sources discussed above to pay dividends to our stockholders, among other things. Dividends on shares of the Parent's common and preferred stock are declared and paid at the discretion of the Board of Direc
tors (“Board
”
) based on our operating results, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, and other relevant factors. Our Board declared:
•
A 12% increase in the quarterly cash dividend on common stock, to $0.48 per common share payable December 1, 2026, to holders of record as of November 16, 2026; and
•
A quarterly cash dividend of $287.50 per share on our 4.60% Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series B (equivalent to $0.28750 per depositary share) payable on December 15, 2026, to holders of record as of November 30, 2026.
Our ability to meet our interest and principal repayment obligations on our debt and our ability to continue to pay dividends to our stockholders is dependent on (i) liquidity at the Parent, (ii) the ability of the Insurance Subsidiaries to pay dividends, if necessary, and/or (iii) the availability of other sources of liquidity to the Parent.
Restrictions on the Insurance Subsidiaries' ability to declare and pay dividends without alternative liquidity options, could materially affect our ability to service debt and pay dividends on common and preferred stock.
Capital Resources
Capital resources ensure we can pay policyholder claims, furnish the financial strength to support underwriting insurance risks, and facilitate continued business growth. At September 30, 2026, we had GAAP stockholders' equity of $3.4 billion and statutory surplus of $3.7 billion. With total debt of $902 million at September 30, 2026, our debt-to-capital ratio was 20.7%. For additional information on our statutory surplus, see Note 22. “Statutory Financial Information, Capital Requirements, and Restrictions on Dividends and Transfers of Funds” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report.
Our current and long-term material cash requirements associated with (i) loss and loss expense reserves, (ii) contractual obligations under operating and financing leases for office space and equipment, and (iii) notes payable, funded primarily with operating cash flows, have not materially changed since December 31, 2025. The Insurance Subsidiaries' net loss and loss expense reserves duration was 3.0 years at December 31, 2025.

There is no certainty (i) these additional investments will be required or (ii) about the timing of funding. We expect to have the capacity to fund these commitments through our normal operating and investing activities as they come due.
Our other cash requirements include, without limitation, dividends to stockholders, capital expenditures, and other operating expenses, including commissions to our distribution partners, labor costs, premium taxes, general and administrative expenses, and income taxes.
As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had no (i) material guarantees on behalf of others and trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts accounted for at fair value, (ii) material transactions with related parties other than those disclosed in Note 18. “Related Party Transactions” in Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” of our 2025 Annual Report and Note 14. “Related Party Transactions” in Item 1. “Financial Statements.” of this Form 10-Q, and (iii) material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as structured finance or special purpose entities, established to facilitate off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Consequently, we are not exposed to any material financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk related to off-balance sheet arrangements.
We continually monitor our cash requirements and the capital resources we maintain at the holding company and Insurance Subsidiary levels. As part of our long-term capital strategy, we strive to maintain capital metrics that support our targeted financial strength relative to the macroeconomic environment. Based on our analysis and market conditions, we may take a variety of actions, including, without limitation, contributing capital to the Insurance Subsidiaries, issuing additional debt and/or equity securities, repurchasing existing debt, repurchasing shares of the Parent’s common stock, and adjusting common stockholders’ dividends.
Our capital management strategy is intended to protect the interests of the Insurance Subsidiaries' policyholders and our stockholders, and to enhance our financial strength and underwriting capacity. We have a strong capital base and high-quality underwriting portfolio, positioning us well to capitalize on potential market opportunities.
Book value per common share decreased to $55.02 as of September 30, 2026, from $56.74 as of December 31, 2025. The reduction was primarily attributable to a $5.80 increase in after-tax net unrealized losses on our fixed income securities portfolio and $1.29 in common stockholder dividends, partially offset by
$5.80
of net income per diluted common share. The increase in after-tax unrealized losses on our fixed income securities portfolio was primarily driven by an increase in benchmark U.S. Treasury rates. Our adjusted book value per share, which is book value per share excluding total after-tax unrealized gains or losses on investments included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), increased to $62.00 as of September 30, 2026, from $57.91 as of December 31, 2025.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $817.7 million in Nine Months 2026, compared to $856.8 million in
Nine Months 2025, primarily driven by lower levels of cash received for premiums.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $618.2 million in Nine Months 2026, compared to $1.2 billion in
Nine Months 2025
.
Nine Months 2025
was elevated as a result of investing proceeds from our $400 million, 5.9% Senior Note issuance in February 2025.
These proceeds also drove the

in net cash provided by financing activities in Nine Months 2025, compared to net cash used in financing activities in
Nine Months 2026 of
$202 million

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
There have been no material changes in the information about market risk set forth in our 2025 Annual Report.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of such period to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions about required disclosure.
No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during Third Quarter 2026 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
In the ordinary course of our insurance operations, we are routinely engaged in legal proceedings with inherently unpredictable outcomes that could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods. For additional information regarding our legal risks, refer to Note 15. “Litigation” in Item 1. “Financial Statements.” of this Form 10-Q and Item 1A. “Risk Factors.” in Part II. “Other Information.” As of September 30, 2026, we are not party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Certain risk factors can significantly impact our business, liquidity, capital resources, results of operations, financial condition, and debt ratings. These risk factors might affect, alter, or change our actions in executing our long-term capital strategy. Examples include, without limitation, contributing capital to any or all of our ten Insurance Subsidiaries, issuing additional debt and/or equity securities, repurchasing our existing debt and/or equity securities, or increasing or decreasing common stockholders' dividends. We operate in a continually changing business environment, and new risk factors that we cannot predict or assess may emerge at any time. Consequently, we can neither predict such new risk factors nor assess the potential future impact on our business. Except as discussed below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors.” in our 2025 Annual Report.
Continuing geopolitical developments could adversely and materially affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and growth.
Continuing geopolitical developments, including military conflict in the Middle East, have contributed to increased volatility in global energy markets and international shipping activity. Though we only write business domestically in the United States, and our insurance operations do not have direct exposure to businesses or individuals in the Middle East, these developments have resulted in higher energy and transportation costs, supply‑chain delays, and volatility in global financial markets. Such conditions may adversely affect global economic activity and the market value of our investment portfolio and could increase our loss costs and reinsurance expense.
