Reports Q3 revenue $4.03B, consensus $3.57B. William P. Foley, II, Chairman, commented, “We delivered strong third quarter results across both our Title business and F&G segment, demonstrating the power of our complementary businesses and our ability to execute in dynamic market conditions. Our Title business achieved an industry leading adjusted pre-tax title margin of 17.8% while F&G had one of their best sales quarters in their history which drove assets under management over $70 billion, a significant milestone for the business. This performance is generating strong free cash flows and we have returned $627 million to our shareholders in the first nine months of the year through share buybacks and our quarterly dividend while also investing $150 million in F&G’s common equity raise earlier this year.”
