Investor Relations

Employers Holdings Inc., a specialist in workers' compensation insurance, navigates a niche often overlooked by larger insurance firms. Founded with a focus on small businesses in low- to medium-hazard industries, Employers has carved a distinct path in the insurance landscape. The company's business model is designed to understand the unique challenges these enterprises face, offering tailored insurance solutions to meet their specific needs. By prioritizing risk management and loss control services, Employers not only provides coverage but also partners with its clients to minimize the potential for workplace injuries. This proactive approach not only helps reduce claims but also fosters long-term relationships with clients, establishing a foundation of trust and reliability.

The genius of Employers Holdings' revenue generation lies in its adept pricing strategies and risk selection, which ensure it remains profitable while maintaining competitive pricing for small businesses. By carefully assessing and underwriting policies, the company mitigates potential losses and enhances its financial stability. In addition to earning premiums on issued policies, the company invests these premiums, strategically enhancing its income through various investments. This dual-income stream model—comprising both underwriting profits and investment returns—allows Employers to sustain its operations and pursue growth opportunities. Through its focused expertise and strategic financial management, the company has cemented itself as a formidable entity within the specialized sector of workers' compensation insurance.

AI Summary
Q3 2025

Reserve Strengthening: Employers increased prior year loss and LAE reserves by $38.2 million, mainly due to a rise in cumulative trauma (CT) claim frequency in California.

Loss Ratio Impact: The accident year 2025 loss and LAE ratio was raised from 69% to 72%, with Q3's accident year loss ratio at 78.1%.

Underwriting Discipline: Growth is being deprioritized in favor of underwriting margin, especially in a competitive, soft workers' compensation market.

Expense Reductions: Underwriting and commission expense ratios improved significantly due to a recent reorganization and ongoing efficiency efforts.

New Product Launch: The company plans to enter the excess workers' compensation market, with submissions expected in early 2026.

Capital Actions: A $125 million debt-funded recapitalization plan was announced, expanding the share repurchase authorization to $250 million. $45.2 million in shares were repurchased in Q3.

Stable Investment Results: Net investment income was essentially flat year-over-year, with realized and unrealized investment gains rising.

Outlook: Management sees reserve levels as adequate, expects underwriting margin to remain the top priority, and does not anticipate significant top-line growth near term.
