Verisk Analytics Stock Price, News & Analysis

Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK) said it has terminated its definitive agreement to acquire AccuLynx after the Federal Trade Commission did not complete its review by the Dec. 26, 2025 termination date.

The company will redeem the $1.50 billion of senior notes issued for the planned acquisition at 101% of principal plus accrued interest, as required by the notes’ mandatory redemption provision. Pro forma for the redemption, Verisk’s leverage at Sept. 30, 2025 would have been 1.9x LTM adjusted EBITDA. As of Sept. 30, 2025 Verisk had $1.2 billion remaining capacity under its share repurchase authorization. AccuLynx disputes the termination; Verisk disagrees and intends to defend that position.

Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK) expanded its strategic collaboration with KYND on December 10, 2025, integrating KYND cyber risk intelligence into Verisk’s Rulebook platform.

The integration gives insurers and brokers seamless access to KYND’s actionable cyber insights to support pricing, underwriting and distribution across all major classes. KYND research cited in the announcement found that 80% of the UK’s top 50 retailers have at least one critical cyber vulnerability, and over one third face simultaneous risks across five categories (ransomware, outdated software, vulnerable services, email security flaws, certificate issues).

Carpe Data announced on December 2, 2025 that its injury-claim fraud solutions are now available inside Verisk ClaimSearch (Nasdaq: VRSK). The integration gives insurers access to Carpe Data’s Online Injury Alerts and one-click Investigative Reports, featuring 24/7 monitoring, no-noise filtering, social-connections evidence, screenshots, and citations exported into existing claim systems.

The collaboration aims to reduce integration backlogs, speed access to fraud-detection tools, and provide consistent, arms-length checks across claim workflows to help adjusters focus on high-risk cases.

Earnix announced an integration of its Price-It pricing and rating engine with Verisk ISO Electronic Rating Content™ (ISO ERC™) on November 12, 2025. The integration enables carriers to ingest machine-readable ISO ERC data and stand up models in days rather than months, preserve carrier-specific deviations without rebuilding models, and run built-in impact analysis to support regulatory filings.

The platform automates versioning, highlights circular changes, reduces manual rekeying into PAS, and aims to lower specialist hours and regulatory slippage while accelerating adoption of new circulars across commercial lines.
