Management Commentary
“I am pleased to begin the year with a second
consecutive quarter of underwriting profitability, as we continue
to build upon the success we have experienced from our recent
strategic rate and underwriting actions,” said Michael J.
Alexander, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While we
continue to face headwinds from elevated loss costs across our
personal lines segments, we benefited from lower weather activity
in the quarter, improved underwriting risk selection and continued
top-line growth. From an investments perspective, we once again
benefited from higher average rates earning in our fixed income
portfolio and from favorable equity market conditions.
Overall, we are confident with the direction of
the company and remain focused on evaluating our business to ensure
we are taking the necessary actions to optimize long-term
profitable growth and provide appropriate shareholder returns into
the future.”
