Three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 2025
Net income available to common stockholders increased by $303, primarily driven by:
A $261 increase in income from discontinued operations, net of tax, primarily due to a $251 income tax benefit associated with establishing a deferred tax asset related to the sale of Hartford Funds. For further information related to the sale of Hartford Funds, refer to Note 17- Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; and
Higher net investment income of $142, before tax, and an increase of $83, before tax, due to a change to net realized gains in the current period from net realized losses in the prior period.
These increases were partially offset by:
A lower P&C underwriting gain of $93, before tax, primarily driven by a lower level of favorable prior accident year reserve development, a higher underlying loss and LAE ratio in Business Insurance, and a higher expense ratio, partially offset by the effect of earned premium growth in Business Insurance and a lower underlying loss and LAE ratio in Personal Insurance; and
In Employee Benefits, the impact of a higher short-term and long-term disability loss ratio, partially offset by a lower expense ratio.

Revenue
Earned premiums increased by $318 or 5%, primarily due to:
An increase in P&C reflecting a 7% increase in Business Insurance, partially offset by a 3% decrease in Personal Insurance.
–Contributing to the increase in Business Insurance was the effect of earned pricing increases across the majority of lines of business and an increase in new business.
–Personal Insurance declined driven by automobile, as the impact of a decline in policies in-force was partially offset by earned pricing increases, while homeowners increased primarily due to earned pricing increases.
Employee Benefits earned premium increased primarily due to higher new business sales across all products, an increase in exposure on existing accounts, and persistency in excess of 90%.
Net Investment Income
[1]Limited partnerships and other alternative investments of $13 and $114 for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2026 respectively.
Net investment income increased primarily due to higher income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments and the impact of a higher level of invested assets.
Net realized gains compared to net realized losses in the prior year, primarily due to greater appreciation in value of equity securities in the 2026 period, largely driven by a private common stock issuer that completed an initial public offering.

Benefits, Losses and Expenses
Losses and LAE Incurred for P&C
Benefits, losses and loss adjustment expenses increased $369 due to:
An increase in Property & Casualty of $226, which was attributable to:
–An increase in P&C CAY loss and LAE before catastrophes of $140, 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
–Less P&C favorable net prior accident year reserve development of $76, with favorable development in the 2026 period of $111, compared to $187 in the prior year period. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the 2026 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation, catastrophes, Personal Insurance automobile liability and physical damage, bond, and homeowners, partially offset by an increase in reserves for general liability and commercial automobile liability. Favorable net prior year reserve development in the 2025 period was primarily driven by decreases in reserves related to workers' compensation, catastrophes, bond, commercial property, homeowners, and Personal Insurance automobile liability and physical damage. Also included within net prior accident year reserve development for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was a benefit of $24 related to amortization of the Navigators ADC deferred gain, which has been fully amortized as of September 30, 2025.
Losses and LAE Incurred for Employee Benefits
–An increase in CAY catastrophe losses of $10. Catastrophe losses in both the 2026 and 2025 periods primarily included losses from tornado, wind and hail events.
For further discussion, see Note 9 - Reserve for Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Employee Benefits losses and LAE increased $141, primarily due to higher short-term and long-term disability loss ratios driven by increased claim incidence across short and long-term disability and less favorable long-term disability claim recoveries compared with the prior year although in line with long-term expectations.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased from the prior year period driven by Business Insurance, reflecting an increase in earned premiums across all lines of business.
Insurance operating costs and other expenses increased due to:
A loss on disposal of real estate, which was sold during the second quarter of 2026;
Higher staffing costs, including benefits costs, partly in response to increased business volume;
Higher technology costs, including increased investment in our businesses; and
Higher P&C commissions, driven by the impact of increased business volume.
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.

Income from discontinued operations, net of taxincreased primarily related to a $251 income tax benefit associated with the sale of Hartford Funds representing the difference between the tax basis and the U.S. GAAP carrying value of Hartford Funds. For further discussion of discontinued operations, see Note 17 – Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 2025

For further information related to the sale of Hartford Funds, refer to Note 17- Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements;
Higher net investment income of $224, before tax, and an increase of $80, before tax, due to a change to net realized gains in the current period from net realized losses in the prior period; and
A higher P&C underwriting gain of $109, before tax, primarily driven by lower CAY catastrophe losses, the effect of earned premium growth in Business Insurance, and a lower underlying loss and LAE ratio in Personal Insurance, partially offset by a lower level of favorable prior accident year reserve development, a higher expense ratio, and a higher underlying loss and LAE ratio in Business Insurance.
These increases were partially offset by:
In Employee Benefits, the impact of a higher short-term and long-term disability loss ratio and a higher expense ratio, including higher staffing costs and technology costs, partially offset by a lower group life loss ratio.

Losses and LAE Incurred for Employee Benefits
For further discussion, see Note 9 - Reserve for Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Employee Benefits losses and LAE increased $180, as higher short-term and long-term disability loss ratios were partially offset by a lower group life loss ratio, reflecting reduced mortality in both term and accidental life products. The increase in the disability loss ratios were driven by increased claim incidence across short and long-term disability and less favorable long-term disability claim recoveries, partially offset by continued paid family and medical leave pricing actions.
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased from the prior year period 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 benefits costs, partly in response to increased business volume;
A loss on disposal of real estate, which was sold during the second quarter of 2026;
Higher technology costs, including increased investment in our businesses; and
Higher P&C commissions, driven by the impact of increased business volume.
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.
Income from discontinued operations, net of taxincreased primarily due to a $251 income tax benefit associated with the sale of Hartford Funds representing the difference between the tax basis and U.S. GAAP carrying value of Hartford Funds. For further discussion of discontinued operations, see Note 17 – Discontinued Operations of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
