The Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, Ken Russell, commented, "The Company continued its profitable results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, strengthened by improvements from claims handling, leveling claims costs and strong underwriting and pricing actions. Although since the first quarter of 2025 the industry has experienced an increase in physical damage loss severities relating to increased costs for autos and parts, over the last two quarters there has been a partial stabilization of these costs. Additionally, enhancements and efficiencies in our claim handling operations have been implemented throughout 2025. Claim costs, lower than our first quarter expectations, recognized in the current quarter were also favorably influenced by a reduction in claims frequency. In addition to the favorable reduction in claim costs realized through September 30, 2025, management believes that revenues, investment returns and our fixed operating expenses continue to meet our expectations."
