Adam Klauber has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors affecting Kinsale Capital Group. The company operates exclusively in the excess and surplus (E&S) market, which has been experiencing substantial growth. However, this growth has also led to increased competition, exerting pressure on Kinsale’s revenue growth.
Despite these challenges, Kinsale’s strategic focus on smaller accounts allows for better pricing and margins, supported by a robust technology platform that enhances operational efficiency. This has enabled Kinsale to maintain industry-leading margins. While the near-term outlook presents challenges, Klauber remains optimistic about the company’s long-term prospects, hence the Hold rating.
In another report released on May 28, TD Cowen also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $478.00 price target.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 28 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of KNSL in relation to earlier this year.
