Filing Explained

The filing adds a lower reported share count and shows available assets above PMIERs minimum required assets at June 30.

This August 7 Form 8-K furnishes Essent Group’s unaudited second-quarter results and dividend announcement; the disclosure states that the report and exhibit are furnished rather than filed under Exchange Act Section 18.

A Form 8-K reports specified material events, and this one records a reporting event rather than a new financing or completed ownership change. Separately, the company reports 89,876 thousand common shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2026, versus 95,456 thousand at December 31, 2025; the lower outstanding count is the relevant share-count change for existing holders.

At June 30, 2026, Essent Guaranty reported available assets of $3,599,092 thousand against PMIERs minimum required assets of $2,092,922 thousand, a reported sufficiency ratio of 172%; these are insurance-subsidiary capital measures, not proceeds from the results disclosure.

new insurance written financial
"Mortgage new insurance written for the second quarter of 2026 was $14.1 billion"
New insurance written is the total dollar value of insurance policies a company issues for the first time during a reporting period, measured by the premiums those new policies will bring in. Investors watch it like a subscription count for an insurer: rising new business signals sales momentum and potential future revenue, while trends can also flag changes in pricing, customer demand or near‑term claims risk.

"Mortgage insurance in force as of June 30, 2026 was $249.7 billion"

"Reinsurance provided by unaffiliated special purpose insurers through the issuance of mortgage insurance-linked notes"
quota share reinsurance financial
"Quota Share Reinsurance (2) Jan. 2022 - Dec. 2022 20% ceding percentage"
A quota share reinsurance agreement is a contract where an insurance company hands a fixed percentage of every policy it sells to another insurer, sharing both premiums and claims in that set proportion. Investors should care because it smooths an insurer’s profits and limits losses—like splitting every slice of a cake with a partner—affecting revenue stability, capital needs, and the company's risk exposure.
loss ratio financial
"Loss ratio is calculated by dividing the provision for losses and LAE by net premiums earned"
Loss ratio is the percentage of an insurer’s collected premiums that is paid out to cover claims and related costs, showing how much of customer payments are used to settle losses. Investors treat it like a fuel-efficiency gauge for an insurance business—lower loss ratios suggest pricing and risk selection leave more room for profit, while consistently high ratios signal weak pricing, rising claims, or not enough money set aside, which can hurt returns.

Book Value Per Share Inclusive of Common Dividends & Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management believes Book Value Per Share Inclusive of Common Dividends provides investors with useful supplemental information because it reflects both changes in GAAP book value per share and cash dividends distributed to common shareholders. Management uses this measure as an additional indicator of per-share capital generation and capital return. Because dividends paid to common shareholders reduce GAAP book value per share, management believes this measure helps investors evaluate the combined effect of retained capital growth and capital distributed to shareholders during the period.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of Book Value per Share Inclusive of Common Dividends to the most comparable GAAP amount as of June 30, 2026, as well as the 12-month growth in Book Value per Share Inclusive of Common Dividends in accordance with Regulation G.
