Second Quarter 2025 Summary

Revenues of $528.8 million for the quarter and $1.03 billion for the year, a decrease of 3.3% and 1.8% from the respective prior year periods, driven by declines in net earned premiums and service and administrative fees, partially offset by higher net investment income and investment gains. Included in the prior year periods were earned premiums related to a one-time assumption of a block of premiums from an MGA partner in December 2023. When excluding the assumption of premiums in the prior year periods, revenues increased by 4.1% and 8.0%, for the comparative periods.
Net income of $19.0 million compared to $12.9 million in Q2'24, and year-to-date net income of $24.6 million compared to $21.9 million in the prior year, with increases driven by growth in Fortegra’s underwriting and fee income, and higher investments gains, partially offset by incremental interest expense on borrowings at the holding company level.
Adjusted net income of $27.1 million for the quarter and $50.5 million for the year, an increase of 11.1% and 12.2% from the respective prior year periods, driven by growth in our insurance business. Annualized adjusted return on average equity was 22.3% for the quarter, as compared to 22.7% in Q2'24.
Declared a dividend of $0.06 per share to stockholders of record on August 18, 2025 with a payment date of August 25, 2025.

For the quarter, corporate expenses were $11.4 million compared to $11.3 million in Q2'24, driven by increased interest expense.

Non-GAAP

Management uses Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity as measurements of operating performance. Management believes these measures provide supplemental information useful to investors as they are frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance and comparison among companies. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. Adjusted net income represents income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses), and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting, all of which is reduced for non-controlling interests. Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity are presented before the impacts of non-controlling interests. Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity are not measurements of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute for GAAP net income. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for a reconciliation of these measures to their GAAP equivalents.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures — Adjusted net income and Adjusted return on average equity

Adjusted net income is defined as income before taxes, less provision (benefit) for income taxes, and excluding the after-tax impact of various expenses that we consider to be unique and non-recurring in nature, including merger and acquisition related expenses, stock-based compensation, net realized and unrealized gains (losses) and intangibles amortization associated with purchase accounting, all of which is reduced for non-controlling interests. The calculation of adjusted net income excludes net realized and unrealized gains (losses) that relate to investments or assets rather than business operations. Adjusted net income is presented before the impacts of non-controlling interests. Adjusted return on average equity represents adjusted net income expressed on an annualized basis as a percentage of average beginning and ending stockholders’ equity during the period. Management uses Adjusted net income and adjusted return on average equity as part of its capital allocation process and to assess comparative returns on invested capital. We believe adjusted net income provides additional clarity on the results of the Company’s underlying business operations as a whole for the periods presented by excluding distortions created by the unpredictability and volatility of realized and unrealized gains (losses). We also believe adjusted net income provides useful supplemental information to investors as it is frequently used by the financial community to analyze financial performance between periods and for comparison among companies.
