Three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 2024
Net income available to common stockholders increased by $313, primarily driven by:
An increase in P&C underwriting gain of $274, before tax, driven by lower CAY catastrophe losses, the effect of earned premium growth, a higher level of net favorable prior accident year reserve development, and a lower underlying loss and LAE ratio in Personal Insurance, partially offset by a higher underlying loss and LAE ratio in Business Insurance; and
Higher net investment income of $100, before tax, driven by higher income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments, the impact of higher invested assets, and reinvesting at higher interest rates, slightly offset by a lower yield on variable-rate securities.
These increases were partially offset by:
In Employee Benefits, the impact of a higher expense ratio, including higher staffing and technology costs, and a higher long-term disability loss ratio, partially offset by a lower group life loss ratio and a lower loss ratio on the paid family and medical leave product.

Revenue
Earned premiums increased by $359 or 6%, primarily due to:
An increase in P&C reflecting a 9% increase in Business Insurance and a 7% increase in Personal Insurance.
–Contributing to the increase in Business Insurance was the effect of an increase in new business across most lines of business and earned pricing increases.
–For Personal Insurance, earned premium increased primarily due to the effect of earned pricing increases, partially offset by a decline in policies in-force.
Employee Benefits earned premium was essentially flat, as an increase in exposure on existing accounts was offset by lower fully insured ongoing sales during the past year.
Fee income increased primarily due to a $14 increase in Hartford Funds driven by higher daily average assets resulting from an increase in equity market levels, partially offset by net outflows over the preceding twelve-month period.
Net Investment Income
[1]Limited partnerships and other alternative investments of $37 and $91 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2025 respectively.
Net investment income increased due to higher income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments, the impact of higher invested assets, and reinvesting at higher interest rates, slightly offset by a lower yield on variable-rate securities.
Net realized losses improved slightly, primarily due to:
Fewer net losses on sales of fixed maturities in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period; and
Gains on transactional foreign currency revaluation in the 2025 period compared to losses in the 2024 period.
These increases were largely offset by:
Impairment of a real estate joint venture in the 2025 period;
Losses on equity derivatives in the 2025 period compared to gains in the 2024 period due to changes in equity market levels; and
Gains on interest rate derivatives in the 2024 period.

Benefits, Losses and Expenses
Losses and LAE Incurred for P&C
Benefits, losses and loss adjustment expenses decreased $30 due to:
A decrease in Property & Casualty of $33, which was attributable to:
–A decrease in CAY catastrophe losses of $177, before tax. Catastrophe losses in the 2025 period included losses from tornado, wind and hail events across several regions, but concentrated in the Mountain West and South regions. Catastrophe losses in the 2024 period included losses from hurricanes, including a loss of $104 from Hurricane Helene, and tropical storms primarily in the Southeast and South regions, and to a lesser extent, tornado, wind and hail events primarily in the Midwest, Northeast and Mountain West regions; and
–A favorable change of $53, before tax, in P&C net prior accident year reserve development, with development in the 2025 period of $103, compared to $50 in the prior year period. Favorable prior year reserve development in the 2025 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation and Personal Insurance automobile liability and physical damage. Favorable prior year reserve development in the 2024 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation and Personal Insurance automobile physical damage, partially offset by increases in reserves for general liability and Business Insurance automobile liability. Also included within net prior accident year reserve development for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was a benefit of $8 and $26, respectively, related to amortization of the Navigators ADC deferred gain, which has been fully amortized as of September 30, 2025. For further discussion, see Note 9 - Reserve for Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Partially offset by:
–An increase in P&C CAY loss and LAE before catastrophes of $197, before tax, primarily due to the effect of higher earned premiums and a higher underlying loss and LAE ratio in Business Insurance, partially offset by a lower underlying loss and LAE ratio in Personal Insurance.
Losses and LAE Incurred for Employee Benefits
A slight increase in Employee Benefits of $2, before tax, primarily driven by a higher long-term disability loss ratiodue to a benefit in the prior year related to an update to the long-term disability claim recovery rate assumptions, largely offset by a lower group life loss ratio driven by lower mortality and a lower loss ratio on the paid family and medical leave product.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased from the prior year period primarily driven by Business Insurance, reflecting an increase in earned premiums across all lines of business.
Insurance operating costs and other expenses increased due to:
Higher staffing costs, including higher incentive compensation and benefits costs;
Higher technology costs, including increased investment; and
An increase in doubtful accounts expense partly due to higher business volume.
Income tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in income before tax, partially offset by a higher net tax benefit in the Corporate category. For further discussion of income taxes, see Note 12 - Income Taxes of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 2024

Higher net investment income of $225, before tax, driven by a higher level of invested assets, reinvesting at higher interest rates, and higher income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments, partially offset by a lower yield on variable-rate securities;
These increases were partially offset by:
Higher net realized losses of $27, before tax; and
In Employee Benefits, the impact of a higher expense ratio, including higher staffing costs and technology costs, and a higher long-term disability loss ratio, partially offset by a lower group life loss ratio, a lower loss ratio on the paid family and medical leave product, and the impact of slightly higher fully insured ongoing premiums.
For a discussion of the Company's operating results by segment, see MD&A - Reportable Segment And Corporate Operating Summaries.
Revenue
Earned premiums increased by $1,131, or 7%, primarily due to:

–Contributing to the increase in Business Insurance was the effect of an increase in new business across most lines of business and earned pricing increases.
–For Personal Insurance, earned premium increased primarily due to the effect of earned pricing increases, partially offset by a decline in policies in-force.
A slight increase in Employee Benefits earned premium of 1%, including an increase in exposure on existing accounts and persistency in excess of 90%.
Fee income increased, primarily due to a $27 increase in Hartford Funds driven by higher daily average assets resulting from an increase in equity market levels, partially offset by net outflows over the preceding twelve-month period.
Net Investment Income
[1]Limited partnerships and other alternative investments of $69 and $143 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2025, respectively.
Net investment income increased due to the impact of a higher level of invested assets, reinvesting at higher interest rates, and higher income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments, partially offset by a lower yield on variable-rate securities.
| Table of Contents | Index to MD&A |
|---|
Net realized losses increased primarily due to:
Lower appreciation in value of equity securities in the 2025 period compared to the 2024 period;
Impairment of a real estate joint venture in the 2025 period;
Gains on interest rate derivatives in the 2024 period; and
Greater depreciation in value of fixed maturities, at fair value using the fair value option (“FVO securities”) in the 2025 period due to changes in credit spreads.
These increases were partially offset by fewer net losses on sales of fixed maturities.

Benefits, Losses and Expenses
Losses and LAE Incurred for P&C
Benefits, losses and loss adjustment expenses increased $410, due to:
An increase in Property & Casualty of $411, which was attributable to:
–An increase in P&C CAY loss and LAE before catastrophes of $541, before tax, primarily due to the effect of higher earned premiums and a higher underlying loss and LAE ratio in Business Insurance, partially offset by a lower underlying loss and LAE ratio in Personal Insurance; and
–An increase in CAY catastrophe losses of $61, before tax. Catastrophe losses in the 2025 period included losses from tornado, wind and hail events across several regions, but concentrated in the South and Midwest regions as well as a loss of $305, net of reinsurance, from the January 2025 California Wildfire Event. Catastrophe losses in the 2024 period included losses from tornado, wind and hail events across several regions of the United States, as well as losses from hurricanes and tropical storms mainly in the Southeast and South regions, and, to a lesser extent, from winter storms, mainly in the Pacific, Northeast and South regions.
Losses and LAE Incurred for Employee Benefits
Partially offset by:
–A favorable change of $191, before tax, in P&C net prior accident year reserve development, with favorable development in the 2025 period of $412, compared to $221 in the prior year period. Favorable prior year reserve development in the 2025 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation, Personal Insurance automobile liability and physical damage, catastrophes, homeowners, commercial property, and bond. Favorable prior year reserve development in the 2024 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation, catastrophes, bond, Personal Insurance automobile physical damage, homeowners, and Personal Insurance automobile liability, partially offset by increases in reserves for general liability, Business Insurance automobile liability, and assumed reinsurance. Also included within net prior accident year reserve development for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was a benefit of $64 and $87, respectively, related to amortization of the Navigators ADC deferred gain, which has been fully amortized as of September 30, 2025.

Employee Benefits losses and LAE were flat as a lower group life loss ratio, reflecting reduced mortality, and improved results on the paid family and medical leave product due to pricing actions were offset by a higher long-term disability loss ratio. The increase in long-term disability was driven by a benefit in the prior year related to an update to the long-term disability claim recovery rate assumptions and slightly higher current-year loss trends.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased from the prior year period primarily driven by Business Insurance, reflecting an increase in earned premiums across all lines of business.
Insurance operating costs and other expenses increased due to:
Higher staffing costs, including higher incentive compensation and benefits costs, partly in response to increased business volume;
Higher technology costs, including increased investment;
An increase in doubtful accounts expense partly due to higher business volume;
Higher direct marketing costs in Personal Insurance; and
Higher commissions and taxes, licenses and fees due to increased business volume in P&C and a slightly higher commission ratio in Employee Benefits due to mix of business.
Income tax expense increased primarily due to an increase in income before tax. For further discussion of income taxes, see Note 12 - Income Taxes of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
