Results of Operations
Underwriting Results
Gross written premiums were $451.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $443.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 1.8%. Gross written premiums were $2.0 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $1.9 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 5.7%. Gross written premiums in the Commercial Property Division, the Company’s largest division, declined 28.3% in the fourth quarter and 17.9% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the prior-year periods, reflecting lower rates and increased competition, including from standard carriers.
1
Excluding the Commercial Property Division, gross written premiums increased 10.2% for the quarter and 13.3% for the full year compared to the prior-year periods, driven by continued strong submission flow across most divisions.
Net written premiums were $370.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $346.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 7.1%. Net written premiums were $1.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $1.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 9.4%. Growth in net written premiums during the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 over the prior-year periods was largely due to higher gross written premiums and an increase in the retention on the Company’s reinsurance treaties.
Underwriting income(2) was $120.6 million, resulting in a combined ratio(5) of 71.7%, for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $97.9 million, and a combined ratio(5) of 73.4% for the same period last year. The increase in underwriting income(2) for the fourth quarter of 2025 was due to continued growth in the business, higher favorable development of loss reserves from prior accident years and lower catastrophe losses. Loss(3) and expense(4) ratios were 50.1% and 21.6%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 52.3% and 21.1% for the fourth quarter of 2024. Favorable development of reserves from prior accident years was $17.0 million, or 4.0 points, for the fourth quarter of 2025 primarily within property lines of business and $9.6 million, or 2.6 points, for the fourth quarter of 2024. The loss ratio for the fourth quarter of 2025 included 0.7 points of net catastrophe losses. The loss ratio for the fourth quarter of 2024 included 2.2 points of net catastrophe losses, primarily related to Hurricane Milton.
Underwriting income(2) was $389.2 million, resulting in a combined ratio(5) of 75.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $325.9 million, and a combined ratio(5) of 76.4% for the prior year. The increase in underwriting income(2) for the year ended December 31, 2025 was largely due to continued growth in the business and higher favorable development of loss reserves from prior accident years offset in part by higher catastrophe losses incurred during the year. Loss(3) and expense(4) ratios were 55.1% and 20.8%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 55.8% and 20.6%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Favorable development of reserves from prior accident years was $62.8 million, or 3.9 points, for the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily within property lines of business and $37.7 million, or 2.7 points, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The loss ratio for the year ended December 31, 2025 included 1.9 points of net catastrophe losses primarily related to the Palisades Fire. The loss ratio for the year ended December 31, 2024 included 1.8 points of net catastrophe losses, primarily related to Hurricanes Milton, Helene and Francine and tornadoes in the Midwest.

Investment Results
Net investment income was $52.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $41.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 24.9%. Net investment income was $192.2 million for the full year of 2025 compared to $150.3 million for the full year of 2024, an increase of 27.9%. These increases were driven by growth in the Company's investment portfolio generated primarily from the investment of strong operating cash flows since December 31, 2024. The Company’s investment portfolio, excluding cash and cash equivalents, had a gross investment return(8) of 4.4% for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Funds are generally invested conservatively in high quality securities, including government agency, asset- and mortgage-backed securities, and municipal and corporate bonds with an average credit quality of "AA-." The weighted average duration of the fixed-maturity investment portfolio, including cash equivalents, was 4.0 years and 3.0 years at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cash and invested assets totaled $5.2 billion at December 31, 2025 compared to $4.1 billion at December 31, 2024.
(8) Gross investment return is investment income from fixed-maturity and equity securities (and short-term investments, if any), before any deductions for fees and expenses, expressed as a percentage of average beginning and ending book values of those investments during the period.
Capital Return to Stockholders
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 119,752 shares of its common stock in the open market at an average price of $417.52 per share for a total cost of $50.0 million, exhausting the initial $100 million share repurchase authorization. In December 2025, the Company announced a new $250 million share repurchase authorization.
4
In February 2026, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.25 per share of common stock, a 47.1% increase from the prior cash dividend, reflecting continued confidence in the Company’s financial position and capital generation abilities.
The new share repurchase authorization and increased dividend return excess capital to stockholders while maintaining a conservative capital position for the Company's business.
Other
The effective tax rates for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were 20.6% and 19.4%, respectively. The effective tax rates were lower than the federal statutory rate primarily due to the tax benefits from stock-based compensation, including stock options exercised, and from tax-exempt investment income. The effective tax rate was higher for the full year of 2025 compared to the full year of 2024 due primarily to a lower volume of stock option exercises.
Stockholders' equity was $2.0 billion at December 31, 2025, compared to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2024. Book value per share was $84.66 at December 31, 2025 compared to $63.75 at December 31, 2024. Operating return on equity was 26.4% for the full year of 2025, a decrease from 29.2% for the full year of 2024. The decrease was due primarily to higher average stockholders' equity as a result of profitable growth and an increase in the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio offset in part by share repurchases.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Net Operating Earnings
Net operating earnings is defined as net income excluding the effects of the change in the fair value of equity securities, after taxes, net realized investment gains and losses, after taxes, and the change in allowance for credit losses on investments, after taxes. Management believes the exclusion of these items provides a useful comparison of the Company's underlying business performance from period to period. Net operating earnings and percentages or calculations using net operating earnings (e.g., diluted operating earnings per share and annualized operating return on equity) are non-GAAP financial measures. Net operating earnings should not be viewed as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define net operating earnings differently.

For the three months and years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net income and diluted earnings per share reconcile to net operating earnings and diluted operating earnings per share as follows:

Underwriting Income
Underwriting income is defined as net income excluding net investment income, the change in the fair value of equity securities, net realized investment gains and losses, the change in allowance for credit losses on investments, interest expense, other expenses, other income and income tax expense. The Company uses underwriting income as an internal performance measure in the management of its operations because the Company believes it gives management and users of the Company's financial information useful insight into the Company's results of operations and underlying business performance. Underwriting income should not be viewed as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define underwriting income differently.
For the three months and years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net income reconciles to underwriting income as follows:
