Successful IPO Strengthens Balance Sheet
Completed initial public offering in May 2025 raising $100 million of gross proceeds, bolstering capital to support growth and underwriting activities.
Significant Top-Line Growth
Gross premiums earned grew nearly 30% year-over-year to $885 million for 2025, driven by voluntary new business and strategic Citizens takeouts.
Large Increase in Adjusted Net Income and EPS
Delivered adjusted net income available to common shareholders of $103 million, or $5.97 per diluted share, up from $37.9 million, or $2.94 per diluted share in prior year.
Record Underwriting Profitability
Achieved a record combined ratio of 63.7% for full-year 2025, a greater than 17-point improvement from 80.9% in 2024, reflecting strong underwriting discipline and a benign catastrophe year.
Strong Returns on Equity
Adjusted return on equity increased to 42.1% in 2025 from 26.8% in 2024; fourth-quarter ROE was 25.6% (adjusted 26.7%) versus 21.2% in Q4 2024.
Customer and Policy Growth
Customer base increased 19% to nearly 422,000 customers; voluntary customer count rose 16% to approximately 327,000 policies with total voluntary production of 104,000 new policies in 2025.
Improved Expense and Loss Metrics in Q4

Prudent Reinsurance and Capital Actions
Reduced non-cat quota share cession from 40% to 25%, expected to lower quota share costs by ~50% in 2026 and increase net revenue (pro forma would have ceded $155M vs actual $248M and generated $369M revenue vs actual $276M).
Zero Catastrophe Loss Year and Favorable Reinsurance Market
No catastrophe losses in 2025, improving results and positioning the company to benefit from expected risk-adjusted reinsurance rate decreases of roughly 10%–20% for 2026 renewals.
Capital Return to Shareholders
Board declared special cash dividend of $1.02 per share aggregating to $20 million, signaling confidence in capital position after an exceptionally profitable year.
