Recent Company History

Over the last few months, Loews has issued a range of corporate updates. An upcoming Q4 2025 earnings release was scheduled for February 9, 2026. Legal developments around the Boardwalk Pipelines acquisition included a Delaware Supreme Court ruling that reversed a prior $690 million award and resolved most claims in Loews’s favor. CNA’s credit ratings were upgraded by AM Best, and Loews maintained shareholder returns via a $0.0625 quarterly dividend. Board composition evolved with Dino Robusto joining the Loews board effective January 1, 2026. Today’s hotel development news extends that diversified strategy into hospitality assets.
