Insights

Slide delivers exceptional Q2 results with 25% premium growth, 30.5% profit increase, and industry-leading 67.4% combined ratio post-IPO.

Slide Insurance has delivered exceptional second quarter results that demonstrate remarkable operational execution following their June 2025 IPO. The 25% year-over-year increase in gross premiums written to $435.4 million shows strong market acceptance of their insurance products, while the 30.5% growth in net income to $70.1 million translates to $0.56 in diluted EPS.

What's particularly impressive is Slide's combined ratio of 67.4%, which improved 250 basis points year-over-year. For context, the property insurance industry typically considers anything below 95% as profitable, making Slide's 67.4% ratio exceptionally strong and indicative of disciplined underwriting. The loss ratio improvement of 850 basis points to 37.4% is remarkable and suggests their tech-enabled underwriting approach is effectively selecting better risks.

The company's growth stems from two primary sources: acquisitions of policies from Citizens (Florida's state-run insurer of last resort) and strong retention of existing policies. This dual-channel growth strategy has increased their policies in force by 26.6% year-over-year to 348,439.

While the return on equity declined to 10.0% from 16.9% in the prior-year period, this is actually expected and not concerning. The decline is primarily due to the significant equity increase from both retained earnings and the IPO proceeds, essentially creating a larger denominator in the ROE calculation.

The lower catastrophe losses ($6.1 million versus $29.9 million in the prior year) contributed to profitability, though this may partially reflect favorable weather patterns rather than purely operational improvements.

TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Slide Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“Slide” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SLDE) today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 Operating Results

Gross premiums written were $435.4 million, a 25.0% increase compared to $348.3 million in the prior-year period, driven by the acquisition of additional policies from Citizens, as well as consistent year-over-year renewal rates of existing written policies.

Policies in force as of June 30, 2025 were 348,439, compared to 348,029 as of March 31, 2025 and 275,178 as of June 30, 2024; sequentially, increased policy renewals were offset by lower policies written as a result of the completion of offers under the Farmers renewal rights agreement in February 2025.

Net premiums earned grew 25.1% to $243.9 million, compared to $195.0 million in the prior-year period, driven by the assumption of policies from Citizens and increased renewals of existing policies.

Total revenue of $261.6 million increased 25.1% compared to $209.1 million in the prior-year period, primarily attributable to an increase in net premiums earned due to the assumption of policies from Citizens and increased renewals of existing policies.

Losses and loss adjustment expenses (LAE) incurred, net were $91.4 million (inclusive of catastrophe losses from non-hurricane weather events of $6.1 million), compared to $89.5 million (inclusive of catastrophe losses from non-hurricane weather events of $29.9 million) in the prior-year period. This was primarily due to the year-over-year growth in policies in force. Loss ratio improved 850 basis points to 37.4%, compared to 45.9% in the prior-year period.

Policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses were $32.1 million, compared to $17.8 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily attributable to greater policies in force on a year-over-year basis, as well as fewer premiums earned on Citizens policies in their assumption period.

General and administrative expenses were $37.9 million, compared to $26.8 million in the prior-year period, due primarily to the growth in staffing to support the Company’s increased policies in force.

Combined ratio improved 250 basis points to 67.4%, compared to 69.9% in the prior-year period, primarily as a result of increased net premiums earned from increased policies in force and a decrease in catastrophe losses from non-hurricane weather activity.

Net income grew 30.5% to $70.1 million, compared to $53.7 million in the prior-year period. Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 was $0.56. Return on equity was 10.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 16.9% in the prior-year period, driven by the growth in equity in the second quarter of 2025 due to retained earnings and proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering in June 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 25.0%, compared to 37.3% in the prior-year period.
