In its first quarter of 2025 financial results, IGI reported a mixed performance with an increase in gross written premiums but a decline in net income compared to the same period in 2024. The company faced challenges due to elevated natural catastrophe losses and macroeconomic uncertainties.
Key financial metrics for the quarter included a 13.7% increase in gross written premiums to $206.5 million, while net income decreased to $27.3 million from $37.9 million in the previous year. The combined ratio rose to 94.4% from 74.1%, reflecting higher loss activity and increased policy acquisition expenses. Despite these challenges, the Reinsurance Segment showed significant growth, with a 43.7% increase in gross written premiums.
Investment income remained stable, with a slight increase to $15.5 million, supported by higher yields on a larger fixed income portfolio. The company also benefited from favorable currency movements, resulting in a net foreign exchange gain of $7.2 million.
Looking ahead, IGI remains optimistic about navigating the challenging market conditions, emphasizing its strategy of disciplined risk selection and capital management to create shareholder value.
