Reports Q1 revenue $236M vs. $245.17M last year. CEO Kevin Burke stated, "Our Q1 of 2026 results reflected solid underlying operating performance despite softening conditions in the insurance markets we serve. At a high level, the past few years have been characterized by generally favorable conditions for our industry, and, as is often the case, a softening market has emerged as the availability of capital has led industry participants to reduce rates to win and retain accounts. Against this challenging backdrop, we remain committed to maintaining underwriting and pricing discipline as we pursue new, high-quality accounts and seek to retain existing accounts at adequate pricing levels...While our underwriting results for Q1of 2026 lagged the unusually favorable results we achieved for the prior-year quarter, we primarily attribute the lower profitability to higher-than-average weather-related losses and the impact of several large current-year and prior-year losses...We believe we are well positioned to build value for all of our constituents as we navigate the current market cycle. Coupling excellent service to our independent agents and policyholders with prudent underwriting and advancing operational capabilities, we expect to build upon the strong foundation we have established over the past several years. We believe that the effective ongoing execution of our strategies will enhance stockholder value over time."
