Net income increased primarily due to higher net investment income and lower net realized losses. For further discussion of investment results, see MD&A - Investment Results.

Underwriting Gain

Underwriting gain decreased slightly due to unfavorable prior accident year development in the current year, higher underwriting expenses, and a slightly higher underlying loss and LAE ratio, largely offset by earned premium growth and lower CAY catastrophe losses.

Expense ratio is generally consistent with the prior year, with staffing costs and investments in our business being partially offset by the impact of earned premium growth.

Written Premiums

[1]Other written premiums of $16 and $18 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2026, respectively.

Earned premiums increased due to written premium increases over the prior twelve months.

Written premiums increased driven by growth across small business, middle & large business and global specialty.

Small business written premium increased driven by renewal written price increases in almost all lines, as well as higher new business premium. Written premium grew across all lines of business.

Global specialty written premium increased, driven by growth in the global reinsurance portfolio, primarily within credit risk and specialty casualty. Excluding global reinsurance, written premium declined modestly, reflecting lower construction-related volumes. This was partially offset by growth in non-construction new business and renewal pricing increases.

Renewal written price increases were recognized in most lines, though have moderated from the prior year.

In small business, renewal written price increases were lower than prior year levels overall, with single-digit price increases across package business and automobile. Workers' compensation pricing was slightly negative.
