Current report

Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially include, among others, our ability to maintain profitability and manage fluctuations in operating results on a quarterly or annual basis; our dependence on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenue; our ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers; and our continued reliance on affiliated customers. Our future performance also depends on the successful development, enhancement, and scalability of our proprietary IaaS platform, including the introduction of new features, analytical models, and services, as well as the accuracy of estimates regarding market size and growth opportunities.

Current report

In addition, we operate in a highly competitive and regulated environment. Competitive pressures, consolidation within the insurance industry, regulatory scrutiny of delegated authority and claims administration functions, and evolving data privacy and cybersecurity requirements could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Natural catastrophes, environmental risks, and climate-related events may significantly impact our customers’ P&C insurance operations, which could in turn affect demand for our products and services. Our business also depends on the reliability and security of our information systems and third-party cloud infrastructure, and any system failures, security breaches, or unauthorized disclosures of sensitive data could result in operational disruptions, regulatory action, litigation or reputational harm.

Current report

Our ownership structure further presents additional risks. HCI controls the direction of our business through its ownership interests, and this concentrated ownership limits the ability of other shareholders to influence significant corporate decisions. Potential conflicts of interest may arise between HCI and us, including those involving our executive officers and directors who hold positions or financial interests. In addition, if HCI were to sell a controlling interest of the Company in a private transaction, shareholders may not receive a change-of-control premium and we could become subject to control by an unknown third party. We may also face challenges in realizing the anticipated benefits of operating as a standalone public company, including increased costs, regulatory compliance obligations, and demands on management resources.

Current report

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

Current report

Underwriting and management revenue increased by $2,678, or 6.2%, to $45,928 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $43,250 for the same period in 2025, representing 82.7% and 82.5% of total revenue, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher managed premiums from two new customers onboarded at the end of 2025, along with growth in underwriting and management services from our existing customer base. As a percentage of revenue, underwriting and management services remained generally consistent year-over-year.

Current report

Other technology services revenue increased by $387, or 16.6%, to $2,715 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2,328 for the same period in 2025, representing 4.9% and 4.5% of total revenue, respectively. The slight increase was primarily driven by higher catastrophe software service revenue due to the stage of completion of certain catastrophic events (i.e., Hurricane Ian) in the current period. As these contracts progress, the estimation uncertainty declined, which contributed to higher revenue recognition. Because catastrophe-related software activity is event driven, revenue from these services may vary period to period.

Current report

Policy commission and related expenses decreased by $493, or 3.9%, to $12,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $12,667 for the same period in 2025, representing 21.9% and 24.2% of total revenue, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower written premiums by the single carrier with policy commission services. The weighted average commission rate was relatively consistent at 9.0% for 2026 and 2025.

Current report

Outsourced claims fees decreased by $726, or 32.2%, to $1,529 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2,255 for the same period in 2025, representing 2.8% and 4.3% of total revenue, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower catastrophe claims development and reduced litigation related activity in 2026 compared with 2025, when claims development and related litigation costs were elevated due to claims arising from storms that occurred in late 2024. Catastrophe related activity is inherently volatile and may not recur at similar levels in future periods.

Current report

Direct personnel expense remained relatively flat at $4,984 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $5,016 for the same period in 2025, representing 9.0% and 9.6% of total revenue, respectively. As a percentage of revenue, the direct personnel expense decreased due to improved operational leverage.

Current report

Depreciation and amortization remained relatively flat at $570 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $597 for the same period in 2025, representing 1.0% and 1.1% of total revenue, respectively. Depreciation and amortization were relatively unchanged year-over-year and did not materially affect our cost structure.

Current report

Operating expenses increased by $2,640, or 52.5%, to $7,668 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $5,028 for the same period in 2025, representing 13.8% and 9.6% of total revenue, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Current report

Research and development expenses remained relatively flat at $2,306 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2,221 for the same period in 2025, representing 4.2% of total revenue in both periods. Research and development was relatively unchanged year-over-year and did not materially affect our cost structure.

Current report

Depreciation and amortization remained relatively flat at $146, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $101 for the same period in 2025, representing 0.3% and 0.2% of total revenue, respectively. Depreciation and amortization were relatively unchanged year-over-year and did not materially affect our cost structure.

Current report

Investment income increased by $2,114, or 531.2%, to $2,512 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $398 for the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher average investable cash balances following our IPO in late 2025 and strategic deployment of capital into interest-bearing cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities. While market interest rates and yields were lower compared to the prior year, the significantly larger balances held in money market and deposit accounts more than offset the lower yield environment. Investment income may fluctuate in future periods based on cash levels, timing of proceeds deployment, and market conditions.

Current report

Income tax expense increased by $937, or 15.0%, to $7,181 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6,244 for the same period in 2025. Our effective tax rate was 26.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 25.8% for the same period in 2025.

Current report

Our effective tax rate for both periods differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily driven by state income taxes, net of federal tax benefits, and other immaterial nondeductible expenses. The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate was not material for the periods presented. We expect our effective tax rate to continue to vary from the statutory rate due to similar permanent differences and state tax obligations. There were no material changes in our income tax estimation methodologies for the periods presented. The year-over-year increase in the income tax expense was primarily driven by higher income before income taxes.

Current report

The Company did not have any interest expense for the periods presented.

Current report

The inputs used to derive Adjusted EBITDA Margin are defined and reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures in the preceding tables above. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to net income, and Adjusted Revenue is reconciled to GAAP revenue, in each case as presented elsewhere in this filing. Net income margin represents the comparable GAAP measure.

Current report

We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures during the period. We believe information regarding Free Cash Flow provides useful information to management and investors because it is an indicator of strength and performance of our business operations after funding capital expenditures. Capital expenditures consist of capitalized software development costs and costs relating to property and equipment, such as computer hardware, office furniture and equipment, and leasehold improvements. Free Cash Flow should not be considered an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, or as a measure of liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

Current report

The reconciliation of Free Cash Flow for the periods presented is as follows:

Current report

Cash and cash equivalents decreased during the three months ending March 31, 2026, primarily due to purchases of fixed-maturity securities classified as available-for-sale, partially offset by cash generated from operating activities. Working capital also decreased during the period, primarily reflecting the same investment activity; as the available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities were classified as non-current based on management's intent not to use the investments for current operating purposes.

Current report

The main objective of our investment policy is to maximize our after-tax investment income with a reasonable level of risk given the current financial market. Our excess cash is invested primarily in money market accounts and available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities.

Current report

As of March 31, 2026, we had $98,516 of available-for-sale fixed-maturity 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.

Current report

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $25,472, an increase of $5,700 from $19,772 for the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily driven by higher net income along with favorable working capital changes, including lower cash paid for income taxes due to the timing of payments during the current period. These favorable impacts were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable, primarily due to business expansion and the timing of customer billings as well as other working capital movements. Operating cash flows may vary based on the timing of customer receipts and vendor payments.

Current report

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $99,321, compared to $769 for the same period in 2025, an increase in cash used of $98,552. The increase was primarily due to purchases of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities during the 2026 period. Capital expenditures also continued in support of software development and infrastructure, consistent with our strategy to support and enhance core operations.

Current report

Net cash used in financing for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $57, compared to $0 for the same period in 2025. The financing cash outflow in the first quarter of 2026 reflects the payment associated with the Company's IPO in 2025. Certain cash payments for these costs occurred in the first quarter of 2026 due to the timing of invoice receipt and settlement.

Current report

The above and other accounting estimates and their related risks that we consider to be our critical accounting estimates are discussed further in our 2025 Annual Report, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no other material changes with respect of any of our critical accounting policies.

Previous report

Prior to July 2024, we were also engaged in the P&C insurance business, primarily focused on homeowners' multi-peril policies in the State of Florida, through our subsidiary TypTap Insurance Company ("TTIC"). On July 1, 2024, we transferred all 2,500,000 outstanding shares of TTIC to HCI in exchange for the settlement of promissory notes issued by us.

Previous report

The sale of TTIC constituted the disposal of a significant component of our business, resulting in a strategic shift in our operations and having a major effect on our financial results. Accordingly, TTIC's results are reflected in our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations and are presented as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and income from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Unless otherwise stated, all discussions regarding results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 reflect results from our continuing operations.

Previous report

Because the transaction occurred between entities under common control and did not result in a change in control of TTIC, it was accounted for as a common control transaction and recognized as an equity transaction. The purpose of this transaction was to restructure our organization, allowing us to focus on expanding our technology and insurance solutions services while reducing debt and improving our capital structure and balance sheet. Refer to Note 3. Discontinued Operations in the notes to our unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about this transaction.

Previous report

Interest expense primarily consists of the allocation of interest from borrowing and funding associated with notes payable and loans to HCI.

Previous wording

Underwriting performance and continued investments in our technology– We leverage data, technology, and proprietary underwriting algorithms to enhance risk management. For instance, we leverage dynamic data sources obtained through various sources and apply advanced statistical methods to model that data into our pricing algorithms. We expect to improve our ability to manage risk and price risk accurately over time as we incorporate new external data sources and utilize the experience gained over time with HCI's policyholder base. These enhancements are expected to lead to better underwriting, lower loss frequency, and lower loss ratios over time, after adjusting for weather-related events. Our success in this area depends on our ability to continuously incorporate new data sources as they become available and effectively apply them to improve our ability to accurately and competitively price risk.

Intense competition in our market– The market to provide core system software to the P&C insurance industry is highly competitive and fragmented. This market is subject to changing technology, shifting customer needs, and introductions of new products and services. Our competitors vary in size and in the breadth and scope of the products and services offered. The principal competitive factors in our industry include total cost of ownership, product functionality, flexibility and performance, customer references and in-depth knowledge of the P&C insurance industry. We believe that we compete favorably with our competitors on the basis of each of these factors. However, many of our current or potential competitors have greater financial and other resources, greater name recognition, and longer operating histories than we do.

New customer success and retention– We have relied and expect to continue to rely on customer relationships with a relatively small number of carriers in the P&C insurance industry for a substantial portion of our revenue, and the loss of any of these customers or a reduction in revenue from any of these customers would significantly harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. While we currently have one customer that is not affiliated with HCI, we do not expect to generate significant revenue from this customer in the current fiscal year. As part of our growth strategy, we are focused on expanding our customer base by developing new partnerships with additional carriers and their agents. Our future operating results will depend, in part, on the rate at which we acquire new customers that are not affiliates of HCI and maintain our relationships with existing customers as measured by the amount of managed premium on our platform. We believe that introducing these prospective customers to the advantages of our technology and variable fee structure will be critical to diversifying our revenue and reducing customer concentration over time. Our ability to support this expansion depends on the continued performance of our customer success and support teams, which are critical to ensuring high customer satisfaction, adoption, and retention.

National expansion strategy / Expansion into new geographies and use cases– We believe national expansion will be a key driver of our long-term growth and success of our business. As of September 30, 2025, we provide services to P&C companies in the states of Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota and Utah. We expect to apply our highly scalable model nationally, using a tailored approach in each state that reflects its regulatory environment and local market dynamics. We aim to expand rapidly and efficiently across different geographies while maintaining a high level of control over our strategy within each market. State expansion should create a broader base from which to grow premiums and increase the geographic diversity in the policyholder base and risk portfolio that we manage. We believe that broader geographic diversification will also improve our ability to secure favorable terms from reinsurers, improving the overall cost structure and profitability for our customers.

Transition to a standalone public company– Following our Initial Public Offering ("IPO") in November 2025, we have become subject to the reporting and compliance obligations of federal and state securities laws, as well as applicable stock exchange requirements. Operating as a standalone public company has required, and we expect will continue to require, that we establish and enhance additional governance structures and corporate functions. These expanded capabilities include external financial reporting, internal audit, treasury, investor relations, board of directors and officer support, and stock administration, which have resulted and are expected to result, in additional costs.

Previous wording

We generate revenue from three primary sources: underwriting and management services, claim services, and other technology services. Underwriting and management services include policy issuance and renewal, reinsurance placement, and administrative support, with fees tied to a percentage of premiums written or assumed, plus related policy fees. Claim services involve investigating, adjusting, and settling claims, including catastrophe-related claims, with pricing based on percentage of premiums written or assumed, per-claim fees and/or a percentage of indemnification costs. Other technology services are primarily derived from proprietary software solutions offered through Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") service agreements, with fees based on a combination of policy or claim volumes, fixed charges, or percentages of claims handled.

Our cost of revenue consists of expenses directly attributable to the delivery of services that generate revenue. These include salaries and benefits of employees engaged in providing underwriting, management, administrative, and claim services. We collect fees inclusive of agent commissions and subsequently pay the applicable commissions to agents. Cost of revenue also includes amortization of software intangible assets used to provide services, information technology expenses that support policy underwriting, administrative functions, and claim handling services, as well as allocated overhead costs from supporting departments. Claim handling costs are comprised of expenses incurred throughout the claims process, including adjustment, investigation, defense, recording, and payment functions. Allocated expenses from departments supporting these functions are also included in cost of revenue.

Current wording

Our cost of revenue includes expenses directly attributable to delivering our services that generate revenue, such as salaries and benefits for employees supporting underwriting, management, administrative, and claim services. For specific customers, we collect fees that include agent commissions and remit those commissions to agents. Cost of revenue also includes amortization of capitalized internal-use-software and other intangible assets used to provide services, information technology expenses supporting policy underwriting, administrative functions, and claim handling services, and allocated overhead. Claim handling costs include adjustment, investigation, defense, recording, and payment functions. Allocated expenses from departments supporting these functions are also included in cost of revenue.

Previous wording

Gross profit represents profit after cost of revenue, as defined previously, and is the difference between revenues and cost of revenue. The increase in gross profit in the recent periods presented was primarily driven by growth in our managed premiums, which allows us to leverage our relatively fixed cost structure. As we continue to scale and find operational efficiencies, we expect gross margins to improve over time.

Current wording

Gross profit represents revenue less cost of revenue. The increase in gross profit in recent periods was primarily driven by growth in managed premium, which allows us to leverage our relatively fixed cost structure. As we continue to scale and achieve operational efficiencies, we expect gross margins to improve over time.

Current wording

Selected financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, including amounts expressed as a percentage of total revenue and the year-over-year change, is presented as follows:

Previous wording

Revenue increased by $26,056, or 89.5%, to $55,166 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $29,110 for the same period in 2024, driven primarily by growth in underwriting and management services from our existing customer base and expansion of the scope of services provided to customers in the beginning of 2025.

Current wording

Revenue increased by $3,127, or 6.0%, to $55,534 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $52,407 for the same period in 2025, driven primarily by new customers along with growth in underwriting and management services from our existing customer base.

Previous wording

Claim services revenue increased by $2,612, or 48.2%, to $8,030, representing 14.6% of total revenue, compared to $5,418, representing 18.6% of total revenue for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher managed premiums from our existing customer base, which increased related claims volume and associated service fees, as well as higher Catastrophe ("CAT") claim service fees and field adjuster service fees following severe weather events from 2024. Claim services revenue in future periods will continue to be influenced by the level of managed premiums and the timing and severity of weather events.

Current wording

Claim services revenue remained relatively flat at $6,891 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6,829 for the same period in 2025, representing 12.4% and 13.0% of total revenue, respectively. Claim services revenue in future periods will continue to be influenced by the level of managed premiums and the timing and severity of weather events.

Previous wording

Cost of revenue increased by $12,607, or 23.0%, to $67,515 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $54,908 for the same period in 2024. As a percentage of total revenue, cost of revenue declined to 41.2% in 2025 from 61.4% in 2024, reflecting improved operating leverage from higher revenue volumes.

Current wording

Cost of revenue decreased by $791, or 3.4%, to $22,791 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $23,582 for the same period in 2025, representing 41.1% and 45.0% of total revenue, respectively. The decrease in the cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was primarily driven by improved operating leverage from higher revenue volumes.

Previous wording

Other operating expenses decreased by $330, or 3.6%, to $8,816, representing 5.4% of total revenue, compared to $9,146, representing 10.2% of total revenue in 2024. The decrease was driven by lower claims management activity along with lower bank fee charges following a system optimization initiative implemented in 2025. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in systems expenses related to investments to strengthen infrastructure and systems to support our growth.

Current wording

Other operating expenses increased by $487, or 16.0%, to $3,534 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $3,047 for the same period in 2025, representing 6.4% and 5.8% of total revenue, respectively. The increase was driven by higher claims management activity along with higher postage and related fees due to significantly higher policy volumes in 2026. These increases were partially offset by the bank fee charges following a system optimization initiative implemented in mid 2025.

Previous wording

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2,760, or 40.6%, to $9,566, representing 5.8% of total revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $6,806, representing 7.6% of total revenue, for the same period in 2024. The increase primarily reflects higher employee-related costs, including discretionary compensation tied to improved performance and salary and wage expenses resulting from higher headcount to support business growth. The remaining increase reflects higher corporate allocations and other administrative costs associated with scaling operations, partially offset by lower overhead allocations to TTIC. The corporate overhead allocation to TTIC included shared services such as HR, IT, legal, accounting, and lease-related costs. Allocations were based on departmental inputs and applied consistently using methodologies appropriate to each cost type. We ceased providing corporate services, and therefore ceased allocating related expenses, to TTIC as of July 1, 2025.

Current wording

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $2,510, or 92.8%, to $5,216 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2,706 for the same period in 2025, representing 9.4% and 5.2% of total revenue, respectively. Employee-related costs accounted for approximately half of the increase, primarily due to a higher portion of discretionary compensation costs being reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses rather than in cost of revenue as accruals were finalized, along with salary and wage expenses resulting from higher headcount to support continued business growth. In addition, the increase reflects lower overhead allocations to TTIC following the sale of TTIC to HCI in July 2024. The corporate overhead allocation to TTIC included shared services such as HR, IT, legal, accounting, and lease-related costs which were allocated using methodologies appropriate to each cost type and applied consistently for all periods presented. We ceased providing corporate services, and therefore ceased allocating related expenses, to TTIC as of July 1, 2025. The remaining increase reflects higher operating costs associated with being a publicly traded Company.

In addition to results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we use certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating performance and make strategic decisions. These non-GAAP financial measures include Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Revenue. Management believes these measures provide useful supplemental information for investors by facilitating comparisons of performance across reporting periods and with other companies in the industry, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted to exclude income tax expense, interest expense, investment income, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of operating performance and to assess the results of the business excluding certain items that are not considered indicative of core operating results. However, Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently.

We define Adjusted Revenue as the portion of total GAAP revenue earned through services delivered directly via our proprietary platform technology, without being outsourced to other service providers. This metric excludes revenue associated with services primarily within claims management that are outsourced to a subsidiary of HCI. Although this revenue is recognized on a gross basis under GAAP, we are considered the principal in the transaction, the economics are largely neutral, as the related costs incurred from outsourced service providers closely match the revenue recognized. Management believes Adjusted Revenue provides investors with useful insight into the performance and scalability of our core platform services and clarifies the underlying revenue contribution from internally delivered operations. This metric also assists management and investors in evaluating period-over-period trends in technology-driven revenue streams, excluding variability associated with outsourced service arrangements. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total revenue or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
