Auto loss ratio decreased 9.5 and 10.4 points in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2023 driven by increased earned premiums and lower non-catastrophe losses.

Current wording
Auto loss ratio decreased 6.1 points in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the same period of 2024 driven by increased earned premiums and lower non-catastrophe losses. Estimated report year 2025 incurred claim severity for Allstate increased compared to report year 2024 for major coverages due to higher repair costs, medical consumption and attorney representation. Gross claim frequency decreased relative to the prior year. We continue to enhance our claims practices to manage loss costs by increasing resources and expanding re-inspections and accelerating resolution of bodily injury claims.
Previous wording
Gross claim frequency decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 compared to the same periods of 2023 due to fewer claims reported related to water and wind/hail perils. Paid claim severity decreased in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023 due to lower losses from water and wind/hail perils. Paid claim severity increased in the first nine months of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023 due to inflationary loss cost pressure driven by increases in labor and materials costs. Homeowners paid claim severity can be impacted by both the mix of perils and the magnitude of specific losses paid during the quarter.
Current wording
Gross claim frequency, excluding catastrophes, decreased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. Paid claim severity, excluding catastrophes, increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due to an increase in freeze related claims and larger losses within the fire peril. Homeowners paid claim severity can be impacted by both the mix of perils and the magnitude of specific losses paid during the quarter.
Previous wording
We define a “catastrophe” as an event that produces pre-tax losses before reinsurance in excess of $1 million and involves multiple first party policyholders, or a winter weather event that produces a number of claims in excess of a preset, per-event threshold of average claims in a specific area, occurring within a certain amount of time following the event. Catastrophes are caused by various natural events

Previous wording
Loss estimates are generally based on claim adjuster inspections and the application of historical loss development factors. Our loss estimates are calculated in accordance with the coverage provided by our policies. The establishment of appropriate reserves, including reserves for catastrophe losses, is an inherently uncertain and complex process. Reserving for hurricane losses is complicated by the inability of insureds to promptly report losses, limitations placed on claims adjusting staff affecting their ability to inspect losses, determining whether losses are covered by our homeowners policy (generally for damage caused by wind or wind driven rain) or specifically excluded coverage caused by flood, exposure to mold damage, and the effects of numerous other considerations, including the timing of a catastrophe in relation to other events, such as at or near the end of a financial reporting period, which can affect the availability of information needed to estimate reserves for that reporting period. In these situations, we may need to adapt our practices to accommodate these circumstances in order to determine a best estimate of our losses from a catastrophe.

Catastrophe reinsurance The catastrophe reinsurance program is part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our shareholders with an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, reduce earnings variability, and provide protection to our customers. Our current catastrophe reinsurance program supports our risk and return framework which incorporates our robust economic capital model and is informed by catastrophe risk models including hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires. As of March 31, 2025, the modeled 1-in-100 annual aggregate probable maximum loss for hurricane, earthquake and wildfire perils is approximately $3.1 billion, net of reinsurance. We continually review our aggregate risk appetite and the cost and availability of reinsurance to optimize the risk and return profile of this exposure.
Previous wording
The total cost of our property catastrophe reinsurance programs, excluding reinstatement premiums, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 was $298 million and $880 million, respectively, compared to $268 million and $729 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2023, respectively. Catastrophe placement premiums reduce net written and earned premium with approximately 80% of the reduction related to homeowners premium.
