Current report
Premiums Ceded for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 represented 35.2% and 41.3%, respectively, of gross premiums earned. The decrease in this ratio was primarily due to the reversal of the $12,369,000 of previously accrued benefits related to retrospective provisions due to the effect of Hurricane Helene during the three months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease was partially offset by higher reinsurance costs due to growth in the number of policies in force and total insured value.
Current report
Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses decreased as the three months ended September 30, 2025 did not have any losses from catastrophic events while the three months ended September 30, 2024 included net losses of $40,000,000 from Hurricane Helene and net losses of $6,500,000 from Hurricane Debby, partially offset by some favorable developments from prior-period losses. In addition, while we have a higher volume of policies in force, we have experienced a reduction in claim and litigation frequency over the comparative periods. See “Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”
Current report

Current report
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we converted $172,500,000 in aggregate principal of 4.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2042 into consideration of 2,187,063 shares of HCI’s common stock and $1,133,000 in cash. The cash consideration included an inducement payment of $1,125,000 and $8,000 paid in lieu of fractional shares.
Current report
On November 5, 2025, we amended and restated our revolving credit facility with Fifth Third Bank. The amendment increased the available borrowing capacity from $75,000,000 to $150,000,000 and released the real estate previously securing the facility.

Previous wording
As of June 30, 2025, we had $650,828,000 of available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity investments, which are carried at fair value. Changes in the general interest rate environment affect the returns available on new available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments. While a rising interest rate environment enhances the returns available on new investments, it reduces the market value of existing available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments and thus the availability of gains on disposition. A decline in interest rates reduces the returns available on new available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments but increases the market value of existing available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments, creating the opportunity for realized investment gains on disposition.

Our liability for losses and loss adjustment expense (“Reserves”) is specific to property insurance, which is our insurance subsidiaries’ only line of business. The Reserves include both case reserves on reported claims and our reserves for incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) losses. As of each period end date, the balance of our Reserves is based on our best estimate of the ultimate cost of reported claims and the IBNR losses based primarily on our historical experience. Changes in the Reserves are charged or credited to operations as the Reserves are adjusted.

The IBNR represents our estimate of the ultimate cost of all claims that have occurred but have not been reported to us, and in some cases may not yet be known to the insured, and future development of reported claims. Estimating the IBNR component of our Reserves involves considerable judgment on the part of management. As of June 30, 2025, $616,225,000 of the total $696,892,000 of Reserves is attributable to our estimate of IBNR. The remaining $80,667,000 relates to known cases which have been reported but not yet fully settled and represents our best estimate of the cost to settle such claims. As of June 30, 2025, $72,941,000 of the $80,667,000 in reserves for known cases relates to claims incurred during prior years.

The $149,008,000 decrease is comprised of (i) reductions in our catastrophe Reserves of $174,210,000 primarily related to Hurricane Ian, Hurricane Helene, and Hurricane Milton; (ii) reductions in our non-catastrophe Reserves of $35,052,000 for 2024 and $27,343,000 for 2023 and prior loss years; and (iii) partially offset by $87,597,000 in reserves established for the 2025 loss year. The Reserves established for 2025 claims are primarily driven by IBNR as of June 30, 2025. The decrease of $236,605,000 related to our 2024 and prior loss-years reserves is due to settlement of such claims as well as a favorable change in estimated losses from Hurricane Milton.
