Agency Termination Impact: During the quarter, we terminated or transferred 36 operating agencies compared to 89 in the previous year period, which resulted in lower accelerated franchise fee revenue.
Contingent Revenue Decline: Contingent revenues, which include Contingent Commissions, were $2.9 million, down 44% from the year ago period.
Market Shopping Activity Impact: We still have a lot of shopping activity going on in the market. And that makes, I think, the productivity numbers look all more impressive because they're doing a lot more work in the day to generate the level of productivity they're doing.
Client Retention Stability: Client retention was flat at 84% for the second quarter to the third quarter of this year. This is after multiple quarters in a row of sequential declines due to historically high premium rate increases driving client shopping activity.
