The scalability of our platform and our ability to capitalize on attractive opportunities position us well to execute our diversified growth strategy and create long-term value for our shareholders.” Second Quarter 2026 Operating Results Gross premiums written were $508.0 million, a 16.7% increase compared to $435.4 million in the prior-year period, driven by growth of voluntary new business and renewals of previously acquired Citizens policies. Net premiums earned grew 47.9% to $360.6 million, compared to $243.9 million in the prior-year period, while total revenue of $386.8 million increased 47.9% compared to $261.6 million in the prior-year period. The increase and year-over-year growth were directly driven by earnings growth from previous increase in voluntary homeowners and Citizens acquired policies. Losses and loss adjustment expenses (LAE) incurred, net were $108.7 million, compared to $91.4 million in the prior-year period. Loss ratio improved to 30.2%, compared to 37.4% in the prior-year period, primarily due to an improvement in overall loss experience. Policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses were $42.3 million, compared to $32.1 million in the prior-year period. The increase was driven by increased renewal policies from prior year assumed Citizens' policies, resulting in increased policy acquisition costs in 2026.

General and administrative expenses were $55.0 million, compared to $37.9 million in the prior-year period, due primarily to the increased staffing costs and technology to support the Company’s strategic growth initiatives. The combined ratio improved to 57.6%, compared to 67.4% in the prior-year period, due primarily to improved loss experience and scaling impact in net earned premium growth with more moderate operating expense growth. Net income grew 92.4% to $134.9 million, compared to $70.1 million in the prior-year period. Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2026 was $1.06 and return on equity was 11.7% in the quarter. Capital Allocation During the quarter, the company repurchased 2,997,980 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $17.95 per share. There remains $114.1 million of availability under the Company’s stock repurchase program. In addition, on July 27, 2026, the Company announced that it has declared an initial quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share on the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The initial quarterly dividend will be payable on August 28, 2026, to stockholders of record as of August 14, 2026. Full Year 2026 Outlook The Company reiterated its expectations to generate gross written premiums in the range of $1.85 billion to $1.95 billion. Top-line growth is expected to be driven primarily by sustained organic expansion, including double-digit increases outside of Florida, complemented by selective growth opportunities within Florida that meet the Company’s return threshold. The Company also reiterated its expectations to generate full year net income in the range of $455 million to $470 million.
