Rhea-AI Filing Summary
ProAssurance Corporation reported stronger fourth-quarter and mixed full-year 2025 results while advancing its planned merger with The Doctors Company. For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, net income was $33.4 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, and Non-GAAP operating income was $42.4 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, both more than double the prior year’s quarter.
For full-year 2025, net income was $50.9 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, slightly below 2024, but Non-GAAP operating income rose to $83.9 million, or $1.62 per diluted share, from $50.2 million, or $0.98 per diluted share. The consolidated Non-GAAP combined ratio improved to 104.2% for the year and 90.3% in the fourth quarter, helped by $53.1 million of favorable prior-year reserve development in Medical Professional Liability. Book value per share increased to $26.24 from $23.49, and Non-GAAP adjusted book value per share rose to $27.82.
The company highlighted continued premium rate increases in its Specialty P&C segment and stable retention of 84%. Management reiterated that the merger with The Doctors Company is progressing, with multiple state regulatory approvals obtained and remaining reviews in California and Pennsylvania still pending, and continues to be anticipated to close by June 30, 2026, subject to final regulatory approvals.
Positive
- Core earnings and underwriting notably improved: 2025 Non-GAAP operating income rose 67.2% to $83.9 million and the consolidated Non-GAAP combined ratio improved to 104.2%, with Q4 at 90.3% helped by $53.1 million of favorable prior-year reserve development.
- Specialty P&C profitability and capital strengthened: Specialty P&C achieved a 98.3% Non-GAAP combined ratio for 2025, while book value per share increased to $26.24 and Non-GAAP adjusted book value per share rose to $27.82.
Negative
- Overall underwriting still above break-even: Despite improvement, the reported consolidated combined ratio remained elevated at 106.6% for 2025, indicating underwriting operations are not yet consistently generating underwriting profits.
- Workers’ Compensation segment remains pressured: The Workers’ Compensation Insurance segment posted a full-year combined ratio of 113.8% and a segment loss of $20.7 million, showing continued weakness in that book.

ProAssurance Reports Results for Fourth Quarter and
Full-Year 2025
Full-Year 2025
BIRMINGHAM, AL – February 23, 2026 – ProAssurance Corporation (NYSE: PRA), an industry-leading specialty insurer with extensive expertise in medical professional liability, today reported net income of $33.4 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, and operating income(1) of $42.4 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2025, net income was $50.9 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, and operating income was $83.9 million, or $1.62 per diluted share.
Highlights(2)
•Operating performance continues to demonstrate progress toward premium rate levels appropriate for the challenging conditions in the medical professional liability and workers’ compensation markets.
•Net Income was impacted by non-operating items totaling $9.0 million and $32.9 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, which are discussed under “Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss).”
•Consolidated net premiums written were $916.9 million for the year, including net premiums written of $673.6 million for our Medical Professional Liability business, which makes up over 95% of the Specialty P&C segment, and $167.3 million for the Workers’ Compensation Insurance segment.
•Specialty P&C renewal premium increases of 8% for 2025 are part of the cumulative premium change of more than 80% we have accomplished since 2018 in the medical professional liability market. Retention for the entire Specialty P&C segment was 84% for the year, unchanged from the prior year. We continue to forgo renewal and new business opportunities when we believe they do not meet our expectation of rate adequacy in the current medical professional liability loss environment.
•Consolidated Non-GAAP combined ratio for the full-year 2025 improved 4.8 points for 2025 to 104.2%, including a 98.3% Non-GAAP combined ratio for the Specialty P&C segment(1). The consolidated Non-GAAP combined ratio(1) was 90.3% in the fourth quarter, largely due to the effect of favorable prior year reserve development, primarily related to $53.1 million of favorable development in our Medical Professional Liability business.
•Consolidated net investment income increased 8.3% for the year, reflecting higher average book yields. Earnings from limited partnership investments (reported as equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries) were below the prior year due to lower market valuations for two holdings.
•Book value per share was $26.24 at December 31, 2025, up $2.75 from $23.49 at year-end 2024; Non-GAAP adjusted book value per share(1) was $27.82 compared with $26.86 at year-end 2024.
“We continue to see progress toward our objectives,” said Ned Rand, President and Chief Executive Officer of ProAssurance. “Joining forces with The Doctors Company through the transaction we announced in March 2025 will allow our organizations to continue to serve today’s healthcare providers with the necessary scale and breadth of capabilities.
“Closing the transaction remains subject to approval from insurance regulators in the jurisdictions where we have operating subsidiaries domiciled. To date, The Doctors Company has received final approval from insurance regulators in Alabama, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Missouri, Texas and Vermont. Review of the proposed transaction by insurance regulators remains pending in California and Pennsylvania. The timing for completion of the pending reviews is uncertain and outside our control, but in light of progress made, we continue to anticipate closing the transaction by June 30, 2026,” Rand added. “The Federal Trade Commission granted the transaction early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 in July and ProAssurance shareholders overwhelmingly approved the transaction in June.”

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss)
Non-GAAP operating income (loss) is a financial measure that is widely used to evaluate performance within the insurance sector. In calculating Non-GAAP operating income (loss), we have excluded the effects of the items listed in the following table that do not reflect normal results. We believe Non-GAAP operating income (loss) presents a useful view of the performance of our ongoing core insurance operations; however, it should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP. The following table is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Non-GAAP operating income (loss):

(1) Net investment gains (losses) recognized in earnings are primarily driven by changes in the value of investments that are marked to fair value each period, the nature and timing of which are unrelated to our normal operating results. In addition, net investment gains (losses) for the year ended December 31, 2024 include the $6.5 million decrease to the contingent consideration liability.
(2) Net investment gains (losses) on investments related to SPCs are recognized in our Segregated Portfolio Cell Reinsurance segment. SPC results, including any net investment gain or loss, that are attributable to external cell participants are reflected in the SPC dividend expense (income). To be consistent with our exclusion of net investment gains (losses) recognized in earnings, we are excluding the portion of net investment gains (losses) that is included in the SPC dividend expense (income) which is attributable to the external cell participants.
(3) Transaction-related costs in 2025 are attributable to professional fees incurred in relation to the proposed merger transaction with The Doctors Company. Additional information regarding the proposed merger transaction with The Doctors Company is provided in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our December 31, 2025 report on Form 10-K. Transaction-related costs in 2024 are attributable to actuarial consulting fees paid during the second quarter of 2024 in relation to the final determination of contingent consideration associated with the NORCAL acquisition. We are excluding these costs as they do not reflect normal operating results and are unique and non-recurring in nature.
(4) Foreign currency exchange rate gains (losses) are reported in our Corporate segment and are primarily related to foreign currency denominated balances associated with international insurance exposures, primarily related to our strategic partnership with an international medical professional liability insured in our Specialty P&C segment. Due to the size of the loss reserves associated with these international exposures, even nominal movements in exchange rates can lead to volatility in our results of operations. We exclude foreign currency exchange rate movements as the nature and timing of these changes are not indicative of our normal core operating results. Additional information on foreign currency exchange rate gains (losses) is provided in the Executive Summary of Operations section under the heading "Revenues" in our December 31, 2025 report on Form 10-K.
(5) Non-operating income reflects proceeds of $1.0 million associated with the sale of the renewal rights related to our legal professional liability book of business to an unrelated third party in the second quarter of 2025 and a gain of $2.2 million associated with the sale of our Franklin, TN property to an unrelated third party in the first quarter of 2025. Additional information regarding the legal professional liability transaction is provided in Part I Item 1. Business under the heading "Specialty Property and Casualty Segment" in our December 31, 2025 report on Form 10-K. We are excluding these items as they do not reflect normal operating results and are unique and non-recurring in nature.

(6) Non-core operations include the net underwriting results from operations that are currently in run-off but do not qualify for Discontinued Operations accounting treatment under GAAP. These operations include our Lloyd's Syndicates operations from our previous participation in Syndicate 1729 and Syndicate 6131 as well as our legal professional liability book of business. Net investment gains (losses) recognized in earnings associated with these operations are included in the adjustment for consolidated net investment gains (losses) as described in footnote 1.
(7) Our statutory tax rate (21%) was applied to these items in calculating net income (loss). Changes in the contingent consideration liability are non-taxable and therefore have no associated income tax impact. The taxes associated with the net investment gains (losses) related to SPCs in our Segregated Portfolio Cell Reinsurance segment are paid by the individual SPCs and are not included in our consolidated tax provision or net income (loss); therefore, both the net investment gains (losses) from our Segregated Portfolio Cell Reinsurance segment and the adjustment to exclude the portion of net investment gains (losses) included in the SPC dividend expense (income) in the table above are not tax effected. There are no taxes associated with our Lloyd’s Syndicates operations in our consolidated tax provision due to the availability of net operating losses and the full valuation allowance recorded against the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, all adjustments related to our Lloyd's Syndicates operations in the table above are not tax effected. The portion of transaction-related costs that is tax deductible was tax effected at the statutory tax rate while the remaining non-deductible portion was not tax effected as there was no associated income tax benefit.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Key Ratios
Certain key performance ratios include the impact of certain before-tax effects of items that do not reflect normal operating results, as discussed in the previous table. We believe adjusting our key ratios for these items presents a useful view of the performance of our ongoing core insurance operations; however, it should be considered in conjunction with ratios computed in accordance with GAAP.
Our consolidated key ratios for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 include the impact of net underwriting results related to non-core operations, guaranty fund assessments and transaction-related costs (see previous discussion on these items in the previous table). Non-core operations include an underwriting loss of $3.4 million and $8.1 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, associated with our Lloyd's Syndicates operations as compared to an underwriting loss of $6.3 million and $4.7 million for the same respective periods of 2024. Also included in non-core operations for the quarter and year ended December 2024 is a nominal amount of underwriting income associated with our legal professional liability book of business as compared to an underwriting loss of $1.9 million and $2.0 million for the same respective periods of 2024.
