Pending Acquisition
Current report
On June 30, 2026, the Company's subsidiary, Hagerty International Holdings Limited, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the issued shares of Bennetts Motorcycling Services Limited ("Bennetts"), a specialty motorcycle insurance broker in the United Kingdom ("U.K."), for a purchase price of approximately £34.0 million (approximately $43.0 million as of June 30, 2026). The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the third quarter of 2026.
Current report
This acquisition builds on the international momentum Hagerty has established through Broad Arrow Auctions, which has expanded its European presence over the past year. Together, both brands can create a more integrated enthusiast platform in the U.K. – combining specialty insurance, live and digital auctions and community engagement across both motorcycles and enthusiast cars with additional cross-sell opportunities.
Current report
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we reported Net income of $8.0 million, representing a $39.2 million, or 83.0%, decrease compared to the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA of $74.5 million, representing a $1.9 million, or 2.6%, increase compared to the prior year.
Current report
In our Marketplace segment, Income before taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $1.1 million, compared to a loss of $2.0 million in the prior period. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to increased auction revenue, which was driven by an 80.3% increase in Net Auction Sales from the 2026 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este Auction, reflecting further growth of Broad Arrow's international business.
Current report
The following table provides a reconciliation of the standalone results of operations for our Hagerty Re and MGA+ reporting units for the three months ended June 30, 2026, which reflect the continuing operations of those businesses, to total insurance segment results of operations included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. This table is presented solely to improve the year-over-year comparability of our financial statements and should not be viewed on a standalone basis. It should be read together with our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the accompanying notes.
Current report
(a)Represents Hagerty Re's earned premium and associated policy acquisition costs related to Essentia policies issued in 2025.
Current report
(f)These consolidation entries are made to defer $32.1 million in policy acquisition costs incurred by the MGA+ reporting unit in their standalone results of operations, which are then amortized over the underlying policy term in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the amortization of such deferred policy acquisition costs totaled $12.2 million.

Current report
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 42.7%, an increase of 0.4% from 2025, when the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 42.3%. Refer to the section "Losses and loss adjustment expenses, net" under the Results of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 for further discussion.
Current report
Policy acquisition costs, net were $83.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $0.7 million, or 0.8%, compared to 2025. Policy acquisition costs, net remained relatively flat despite growth in earned premium, reflecting a change in the composition of expenses following the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement. Refer to the discussion of Policy acquisition costs, net within the section "Components of Our Results of Operations" above for additional details.
Current report
(2)Private Sales is a gross transaction-volume metric that includes both brokered private sales, for which we recognize revenue on a net commission basis, and sales of our inventory, for which we recognize revenue on a gross basis. The decrease in Private Sales is primarily attributable to lower brokered private sale volume compared to the prior year, which included the private sale of a sizable single-owner collection. Because brokered private sales are recognized net, this decline did not have a proportionate impact on Marketplace revenue or income before taxes.
Current report
Income before taxes for the Marketplace segment was $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $3.1 million compared to 2025. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to increased auction revenue, which was driven by an 80.3% increase in Net Auction Sales attributable to the 2026 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este Auction. To a much lesser extent, the increase in Marketplace segment results is driven by an increase in finance revenue due to an 80.2% increase in the BAC Average Loan Portfolio Balance during the period, which was enabled by the upsizing of the BAC Credit Facility in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Current report
Amortization of deferred LPT gain
Current report
Amortization of the deferred gain associated with the LPT Agreement was $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, with no comparable amount in the prior year period. The LPT Agreement became effective on January 1, 2026 in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, and the associated deferred gain is being recognized within "Interest expense and other, net" over the expected period of future claim payments. Refer to Note 3 — Markel Fronting Arrangement in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.
Current report
Interest expense
Current report
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, Interest expense decreased $0.2 million compared to 2025. This decrease is the result of a lower interest rate incurred on borrowings under the JPM Credit Facility for the three months ended June 30, 2026, when compared to the prior year.
Current report
Change in TRA Liability
Current report
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded $3.1 million of expense due to a change in the value of the TRA Liability. There was no such expense recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The expense related to the remeasurement of the TRA Liability is recorded within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 19 — Taxation in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Financial Highlights
Current report
In our Marketplace segment, Income before taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $1.8 million, compared to a loss of $0.5 million in the prior period. The improved Marketplace segment results are principally due to increased auction revenue, which was driven by increases in Net Auction Sales of 90.0% and 80.3% from The Amelia and the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este auctions, respectively. To a much lesser extent, the increase in auction revenue is also due to the inaugural Global Icons online auction during the Salon Retromobile week in Paris and the inaugural Spring Global Icons auction.

Current report
Earned premium, net was $491.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $144.5 million, or 41.6%, compared to 2025. This increase is primarily driven by our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which became effective January 1, 2026 and increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from approximately 80% to 100%, including for in-force policies written in 2025. To a lesser extent, the increase is driven by growth in subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries.
Current report
(3)Includes $92.6 million of premium assumed on January 1, 2026 in connection with our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement, representing the incremental 20% risk assumed for policies issued in 2025.
Current report
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, loss experience developed favorably resulting in a $6.1 million reserve reduction, primarily driven by the continued emergence of lower physical damage losses for the 2025 accident year. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, losses and loss adjustment expenses included $10.3 million of pre-tax losses related to the Southern California Wildfires.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 40.6%, a decrease of 1.6% from 2025, when the Hagerty Re Loss Ratio was 42.2%.
Current report
Underwriting and other insurance expenses were $122.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $120.0 million compared to 2025. This increase is primarily due to the transition of our business under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, which required a different classification of certain costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Beginning in 2026, because we now control the Essentia book of business, certain operating costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary in support of our risk taking activities are classified within "Underwriting and other insurance expenses". In 2025, prior to assuming control of the Essentia book of business, these costs were categorized within "Selling, general, and administrative expenses".

Current period results reflect strong results at The Amelia and the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este auctions, with increases in Net Auction Sales of 90.0% and 80.3%, respectively. To a lesser extent, the increase in auction revenue is also due to the inaugural Global Icons online auction during the Salon Retromobile week in Paris and the inaugural Spring Global Icons auction. Lastly, the increase in Marketplace segment results reflects the 96.5% increase in the BAC Average Loan Portfolio Balance during the period, which was enabled by the upsizing of the BAC Credit Facility in the fourth quarter of 2025.

In our Marketplace segment, Income before taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $0.8 million, compared to $1.5 million in the prior period. Current period results reflect a lower level of Broad Arrow inventory sales, as prior year results included the one-time sale of vehicles acquired from The Academy of Art University Collection. This decrease in inventory sales was largely offset by an increase in auction revenue due to strong results at the 2026 auction at The Amelia, which saw an 81% increase in Aggregate Auction Sales from the prior year.

Marketplace Segment
Previous report
Income before taxes for the Marketplace segment was $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 48.9%, compared to 2025. This decrease was principally due to a lower level of Broad Arrow inventory sales, as the prior-year period included the one-time sale of a collection outside of the regular auction schedule. That event included the sale of vehicles acquired from The Academy of Art University Collection, which were sold at an auction held in February 2025. This decrease in inventory sales was partially offset by an increase in auction revenue, driven by the strong results at the 2026 auction at The Amelia, which saw an 81.0% increase in Net Auction Sales from the prior year. To a lesser extent, the increase in auction revenue was also due to the inaugural Global Icons online auction during the Salon Retromobile week in Paris. Lastly, the decrease in Marketplace segment results was further offset by an increase in finance revenue from the increase in BAC's loan book, which was a result of the upsizing of the BAC Credit Facility in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business. While our United States ("U.S.") MGA subsidiary and Hagerty Re continue to operate in the same manner they have historically, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services with respect to the Essentia book of business is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we are no longer recognizing commission revenue or the associated ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 will continue to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026. In addition, policy acquisition costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary for Essentia policies issued in 2026 will be deferred and amortized over the policy term. Although we expect the Markel Fronting Arrangement to result in increased profitability, our reported commission revenue and ceding commission expense will be lower than in prior periods, reflecting the new contractual terms governing our relationship with Markel.

On December 31, 2025, in connection with the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we entered into a loss portfolio transfer agreement (the "LPT Agreement") that became effective on January 1, 2026. Pursuant to the LPT Agreement, Hagerty Re assumed 100% of the net retained liabilities for Essentia-originated policies issued prior to January 1, 2026 and received $50.5 million in cash consideration. We are accounting for the LPT Agreement using the deposit method of accounting. At inception, we recorded the $50.5 million of cash consideration received as a deposit liability within "Other liabilities" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of January 1, 2026, the estimated value of the liabilities assumed under the LPT Agreement was $42.7 million, resulting in an initial deferred gain of $7.8 million, which is being recognized over the expected period of future claim payments within "Interest expense and other, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

To a lesser extent, the increase was driven by continued growth of subject premiums written through our MGA subsidiaries.

Our provision for income taxes was a benefit of $8.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 39.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to an expense of $5.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 16.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The change in income tax benefit (expense) period over period is driven by non-reversing temporary differences between taxable income and pre-tax book income related to the Markel Fronting Arrangement, partially offset by higher earnings in Hagerty Re and an increase in Hagerty, Inc.'s allocable share of income from THG.

As discussed in greater detail above under "Markel Fronting Arrangement", due to the expanded underwriting and claims authority granted to us under the Markel Fronting Arrangement, we now control the Essentia book of business. While our U.S. MGA subsidiary and Hagerty Re continue to operate in the same manner they have historically, beginning on January 1, 2026, the benefit of our MGA services is being received by Hagerty Re and not Essentia. As a result, effective in the first quarter of 2026, we are no longer recognizing commission revenue or the associated ceding commission expense for Essentia-originated policies in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, ceding commission expense associated with Essentia policies issued in 2025 will continue to be recognized ratably over the remaining term of those policies throughout 2026. In addition, policy acquisition costs incurred by our U.S. MGA subsidiary for Essentia policies issued in 2026 are being deferred and amortized over the policy term. Accordingly, our entry into the Markel Fronting Arrangement has reduced the period‑to‑period comparability of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
