The end of the earnings season is always a good time to take a step back and see who shined (and who not so much). Let’s take a look at how reinsurance stocks fared in Q1, starting with Hamilton Insurance Group (NYSE: HG).

This is a cyclical industry, and the sector benefits when there is 'hard market', characterized by strong premium rate increases that outpace loss and cost inflation, resulting in robust underwriting margins. The opposite is true in a 'soft market'. Interest rates also matter, as they determine the yields earned on fixed-income portfolios. The primary headwind remains the immense and concentrated exposure to large-scale catastrophe losses, as the growing impact of climate change challenges traditional risk models and creates significant earnings volatility. Additionally, they face the risk of adverse prior-year reserve development, where claims prove more costly than anticipated, while the eventual influx of new capital from alternative sources threatens to soften the market and compress future returns.

The 7 reinsurance stocks we track reported a mixed Q1. As a group, revenues beat analysts’ consensus estimates by 4.9%.

In light of this news, share prices of the companies have held steady. On average, they are relatively unchanged since the latest earnings results.

Market Update

Thanks to the Fed’s series of rate hikes in 2022 and 2023, inflation has cooled significantly from its post-pandemic highs, drawing closer to the 2% goal. This disinflation has occurred without severely impacting economic growth, suggesting the success of a soft landing. The stock market thrived in 2024, spurred by recent rate cuts (0.5% in September and 0.25% in November), and a notable surge followed Donald Trump’s presidential election win in November, propelling indices to historic highs. Nonetheless, the outlook for 2025 remains clouded by potential trade policy changes and corporate tax discussions, which could impact business confidence and growth. The path forward holds both optimism and caution as new policies take shape.
