The Progressive Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1 Basis of Presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Progressive Corporation, our wholly owned insurance and non-insurance subsidiaries and affiliates in which we have a controlling financial interest (Progressive), including, beginning on June 1, 2021, Protective Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries (Protective Insurance), which Progressive acquired on that date. See Note 14 Acquisition for further discussion.
The consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with Progressive’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in Exhibit 13 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (2020 Annual Report to Shareholders).
We perform analyses to evaluate our premiums receivables for expected credit losses. See the 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders for a discussion on our premiums receivable allowance for credit loss policy. The following table summarizes changes in our allowance for credit loss exposure on our premiums receivables:
Three Months Nine Months
Periods Ended September 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020
(millions)
Allowance for credit loss, beginning of period $ 245.2  $ 437.9  $ 356.2  $ 283.2 
       Allowance acquired during period1

       Write-offs3
(95.1) (121.1) (357.9) (332.9)
Allowance for credit loss, end of period $ 257.3  $ 313.2  $ 257.3  $ 313.2 
1 Represents the amount of the allowance acquired in the Protective Insurance acquisition.
2 Represents the incremental increase (decrease) in other underwriting expenses.
3 Represents portion of allowance that is reversed when premiums receivables are written off.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we experienced an increase in our allowance for credit losses, compared to a decrease during the same period in 2020. Collections received on outstanding premiums receivable balances have increased following the lifting of the moratoriums and billing leniency efforts that we put in place from March through May 2020, which contributed to the decrease in our allowance during the third quarter 2020 and lower allowance recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020. The greater collections are likely due in part to changes in consumer spending habits and government stimulus spending during the period.
Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets include certain long-lived assets that are considered held for sale. The fair value of these held for sale assets, less the estimated costs to sell, was $12.6 million at September 30, 2021, $27.1 million at September 30, 2020, and $56.6 million at December 31, 2020.

Note 2 Investments — The following tables present the composition of our investment portfolio by major security type, consistent with our classification of how we manage, monitor, and measure the portfolio. Our securities are reported in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The changes in fair value for our fixed-maturity securities (other than hybrid securities) are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, in our consolidated balance sheets. The net holding period gains (losses) reported below represent the inception-to-date changes in fair value of the securities. The changes in the net holding period gains (losses) between periods for the hybrid securities and equity securities are recorded as a component of net realized gains (losses) on securities in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

The total fair value of the portfolio at September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, included $2.9 billion, $2.8 billion, and $6.2 billion, respectively, of securities held in a consolidated, non-insurance subsidiary of the holding company, net of unsettled security transactions. During the first nine months of 2021, we used a portion of these investments to pay our common share dividends, repurchase common shares, and pay off debt.
2 Includes a $25.0 million reclassification from nonredeemable preferred stocks to common equities to reflect the prior year conversion of a security and to conform to the current year classification.
At September 30, 2021, bonds and certificates of deposit in the principal amount of $407.8 million were on deposit to meet state insurance regulatory requirements. We did not hold any securities of any one issuer, excluding U.S. government obligations, with an aggregate cost or fair value exceeding 10% of total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2021 or 2020, or December 31, 2020. At September 30, 2021, we did not hold any debt securities that were non-income producing during the preceding 12 months and held $12.3 million of foreign government obligations at September 30, 2021, which we classified in our corporate debt portfolio.
Short-Term Investments Our short-term investments may include commercial paper and other investments that are expected to mature or are redeemable within one year.
We invested in repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions during 2021 and 2020, but did not have any open positions at September 30, 2021 and 2020, or December 31, 2020. To the extent we enter into repurchase or reverse repurchase transactions, consistent with past practice, we would elect not to offset these transactions and would report them on a gross basis on our consolidated balance sheets, despite the option to elect to offset these transactions as long as they were with the same counterparty and subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement.

Hybrid Securities Certain securities in our fixed-maturity portfolio are accounted for as hybrid securities because they contain embedded derivatives that are not deemed to be clearly and closely related to the host investments. These securities are reported at fair value:

Since the embedded derivatives (e.g., change-in-control put option, debt-to-equity conversion, or any other feature unrelated to the credit quality or risk of default of the issuer that could impact the amount or timing of our expected future cash flows) do not have observable intrinsic values, we have elected to record the changes in fair value of these securities through income as a component of net realized gains or losses.

 Asset-backed securities are classified in the maturity distribution table based upon their projected cash flows. All other securities, which do not have a single maturity date, are reported based upon expected average maturity. Contractual maturities may differ from expected maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to call or prepay obligations.

The increase in the number of securities in an unrealized loss position since both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, was primarily the result of an increase in interest rates. As of September 30, 2021, we had two securities in the table above, all in our corporate debt securities, that had their credit ratings downgraded during the quarter, with a combined fair value of $10.5 million and an unrealized loss of $0.4 million.
A review of the securities in an unrealized loss position indicated that the issuers were current with respect to their interest obligations and that there was no evidence of deterioration of the current cash flow projections that would indicate we would not receive the remaining principal at maturity.
Allowance For Credit and Uncollectible Losses We are required to measure the amount of potential credit losses for all fixed-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position. We did not record any allowances for credit losses or any write-offs for amounts deemed to be uncollectible for the first nine months of 2021 and did not have a material credit loss allowance balance as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, or December 31, 2020. We considered several factors and inputs related to the individual securities as part of this analysis, including:
current performance indicators on the business model or underlying assets (e.g., delinquency rates, foreclosure rates, and default rates);
credit support (via current levels of subordination);
historical credit ratings; and
updated cash flow expectations based upon these performance indicators.
In order to determine the amount of credit loss, if any, we initially reviewed securities in a loss position to determine whether it was likely that we would be required, or whether we intended, to sell any of the securities prior to the recovery of their respective cost bases (which could be maturity). If we were likely to, or intended to, sell prior to a potential recovery, we would write off the unrealized loss. For those securities that we determined we were not likely to, or did not intend to, sell prior to a potential recovery, we calculated the net present value (NPV) of the cash flows expected (i.e., expected recovery value) using the current book yield for each security. The NPV was then compared to the security’s current amortized value to determine if a credit loss existed. In the event that the NPV was below the amortized value, and the amount was determined to be material individually, or in aggregate, a credit loss would be deemed to exist, and either an allowance for credit losses would be created, or if an allowance already existed, either a recovery of the previous allowance, or an incremental loss, would be recorded to net realized gains (losses) on securities.
12


As of September 30, 2021, we believe none of the unrealized losses relate to material credit losses on any specific securities, or in the aggregate, based on our review. We continue to expect all the securities in our portfolio to pay their principal and interest obligations.
We reviewed our accrued investment income outstanding on those securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2021, to determine if the accrued interest amounts were deemed to be uncollectible. Based on our analysis, we believe the issuers have sufficient liquidity and capital reserves to meet their current interest and future principal, obligations and, therefore, did not write off any accrued income as uncollectible at September 30, 2021.

Realized gains (losses) on securities sold are computed using the first-in-first-out method. The significant gains recognized in 2020 on our fixed-income portfolio were the result of selling Treasury securities for opportunistic investments. In 2020, the gains in our common stock portfolio resulted from rebalancing the indexed equity portfolio. For the nine months ended 2021, the realized gain in common equities reflected the sale of a common stock held outside our indexed portfolio. The other asset impairment loss was recorded as a result of our investment in a federal new markets tax credit fund, which was entered into during the second quarter 2021, and reported in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.
The following table reflects our holding period realized gains (losses) on equity securities recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, for equity securities held at the respective quarter end:

On a year-over-year basis, investment income (interest and dividends) decreased 9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 11% for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods last year, due to a decrease in the portfolio yield, which was partially offset by an increase in average assets. The recurring investment book yield decreased about 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 23% for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020 as a result of reinvesting cash from sales, maturities, paydowns, and other redemptions at market yields that were significantly lower than the portfolio’s overall yield.

Note 3 Fair Value — We have categorized our financial instruments, based on the degree of subjectivity inherent in the method by which they are valued, into a fair value hierarchy of three levels, as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments at the measurement date (e.g., U.S. government obligations, which are continually priced on a daily basis, active exchange-traded equity securities, and certain short-term securities).
Level 2: Inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) that are observable for the instrument either directly or indirectly (e.g., certain corporate and municipal bonds and certain preferred stocks). This includes: (i) quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the instruments, and (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable. Unobservable inputs reflect our subjective evaluation about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument (e.g., certain structured securities and privately held investments).
Determining the fair value of the investment portfolio is the responsibility of management. As part of the responsibility, we evaluate whether a market is distressed or inactive in determining the fair value for our portfolio. We review certain market level inputs to evaluate whether sufficient activity, volume, and new issuances exist to create an active market. Based on this evaluation, we concluded that there was sufficient activity related to the sectors and securities for which we obtained valuations.

Our portfolio valuations, excluding short-term investments, classified as either Level 1 or Level 2 in the above tables are priced exclusively by external sources, including: pricing vendors, dealers/market makers, and exchange-quoted prices.
Our short-term investments classified as Level 1 are highly liquid, actively marketed, and have a very short duration, primarily 90 days or less to redemption. These securities are held at their original cost, adjusted for any accretion of discount, since that value very closely approximates what an active market participant would be willing to pay for such securities. The remainder of our short-term investments are classified as Level 2 and are not priced externally since these securities continually trade at par value. These securities are classified as Level 2 since they are primarily longer-dated securities issued by municipalities that contain either liquidity facilities or mandatory put features within one year.
At September 30, 2021, vendor-quoted prices represented 82% of our Level 1 classifications (excluding short-term investments), compared to 75% and 76% at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The securities quoted by vendors in Level 1 primarily represent our holdings in U.S. Treasury Notes, which are frequently traded, and the quotes are considered similar to exchange-traded quotes. The balance of our Level 1 pricing comes from quotes obtained directly from trades made on active exchanges.
19


At September 30, 2021, vendor-quoted prices comprised 97% of our Level 2 classifications (excluding short-term investments), while dealer-quoted prices represented the remaining 3%, compared to 99% and 1%, respectively, at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020. In our process for selecting a source (e.g., dealer or pricing service) to provide pricing for securities in our portfolio, we reviewed documentation from the sources that detailed the pricing techniques and methodologies used by these sources and determined if their policies adequately considered market activity, either based on specific transactions for the particular security type or based on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield, and structure that were recently transacted. Once a source is chosen, we continue to monitor any changes or modifications to their processes by reviewing their documentation on internal controls for pricing and market reviews. We review quality control measures of our sources as they become available to determine if any significant changes have occurred from period to period that might indicate issues or concerns regarding their evaluation or market coverage.
As part of our pricing procedures, we obtain quotes from more than one source to help us fully evaluate the market price of securities. However, our internal pricing policy is to use a consistent source for individual securities in order to maintain the integrity of our valuation process. Quotes obtained from the sources are not considered binding offers to transact. Under our policy, when a review of the valuation received from our selected source appears to be outside of what is considered market level activity (which is defined as trading at spreads or yields significantly different than those of comparable securities or outside the general sector level movement without a reasonable explanation), we may use an alternate source’s price. To the extent we determine that it may be prudent to substitute one source’s price for another, we will contact the initial source to obtain an understanding of the factors that may be contributing to the significant price variance.
To allow us to determine if our initial source is providing a price that is outside of a reasonable range, we review our portfolio pricing on at least a weekly basis. When necessary, we challenge prices from our sources when a price provided does not match our expectations based on our evaluation of market trends and activity. Initially, we perform a review of our portfolio by sector to identify securities whose prices appear outside of a reasonable range. We then perform a more detailed review of fair values for securities disclosed as Level 2. We review dealer bids and quotes for these and/or similar securities to determine the market level context for our valuations. We then evaluate inputs relevant for each class of securities disclosed in the preceding hierarchy tables.
For our structured debt securities, including commercial, residential, and asset-backed securities, we evaluate available market-related data for these, and similar securities, related to collateral, delinquencies, and defaults for historical trends and reasonably estimable projections, as well as historical prepayment rates and current prepayment assumptions and cash flow estimates. We further stratify each class of our structured debt securities into more finite sectors (e.g., planned amortization class, first pay, second pay, senior, subordinated, etc.) and use duration, credit quality, and coupon to determine if the fair value is appropriate.
For our corporate debt and preferred stock (redeemable and nonredeemable) portfolios, as well as the notes issued by The Progressive Corporation (see Note 4 Debt), we review securities by duration, coupon, and credit quality, as well as changes in interest rate and credit spread movements within that stratification. The review also includes recent trades, including: volume traded at various levels that establish a market, issuer specific fundamentals, and industry specific economic news as it comes to light.
For our municipal securities (e.g., general obligations, revenue, and housing), we stratify the portfolio to evaluate securities by type, coupon, credit quality, and duration to review price changes relative to credit spread and interest rate changes. Additionally, we look to economic data as it relates to geographic location as an indication of price-to-call or maturity predictors. For municipal housing securities, we look to changes in cash flow projections, both historical and reasonably estimable projections, to understand yield changes and their effect on valuation.
Lastly, for our short-term securities, we look at acquisition price relative to the coupon or yield. Since our short-term securities are typically 90 days or less to maturity, with the majority listed in Level 2 being 30 days or less to redemption, we believe that acquisition price is the best estimate of fair value.
We also review data assumptions as supplied by our sources to determine if that data is relevant to current market conditions. In addition, we independently review each sector for transaction volumes, new issuances, and changes in spreads, as well as the overall movement of interest rates along the yield curve to determine if sufficient activity and liquidity exists to provide a credible source for our market valuations.
20


During each valuation period, we create internal estimations of portfolio valuation (performance returns), based on current market-related activity (i.e., interest rate and credit spread movements and other credit-related factors) within each major sector of our portfolio. We compare our internally generated portfolio results with those generated based on quotes we receive externally and research material valuation differences. We compare our results to index returns for each major sector adjusting for duration and credit quality differences to better understand our portfolio’s results. Additionally, we review on a monthly basis our external sales transactions and compare the actual final market sales prices to previous market valuation prices. This review provides us further validation that our pricing sources are providing market level prices, since we explain significant price changes (i.e., greater than 2%) as known events occur in the marketplace and affect a security’s price at sale.
This analysis provides us with additional comfort regarding the source’s process, the quality of its review, and its willingness to improve its analysis based on feedback from clients. We believe this effort helps ensure that we are reporting the most representative fair values for our securities.
Except as described below, our Level 3 securities are also priced externally; however, due to several factors (e.g., nature of the securities, level of activity, and lack of similar securities trading to obtain observable market level inputs), these valuations are more subjective in nature. Certain private equity investments included in the Level 3 category are valued using external pricing supplemented by internal review and analysis.
After all the valuations are received and our review is complete, if the inputs used by vendors are determined to not contain sufficient observable market information, we will reclassify the affected security valuations to Level 3. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, we did not have any securities in our fixed-maturity portfolio listed as Level 3.
At September 30, 2021, we held seven private nonredeemable preferred securities that were priced internally or by a pricing firm and we held three private nonredeemable preferred securities at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, we held one private common stock that is currently priced by a pricing firm and was previously priced internally. During the third quarter 2021, we reclassified a Level 3 nonredeemable preferred stock to a Level 3 common stock at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, to reflect a security that converted during 2020 and to conform to the current year presentation. At September 30, 2021, we held six Level 3 other risk investments that were priced at cost or using the equity method, compared to two Level 3 other risk investments that were priced at cost at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020.
To the extent we receive prices from external sources for the Level 3 securities, we would review those prices for reasonableness using internally developed assumptions and then compare our derived prices to the prices we received. During 2021 and 2020, there were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
Based on our review, all prices received from external sources for 2021 remained unadjusted. Due to the relative size of the Level 3 securities’ fair values compared to the total portfolio’s fair value, any changes in pricing methodology would not have a significant change in valuation that would materially impact net or comprehensive income.

Note 5 Income Taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates. We review our deferred tax assets regularly for recoverability. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, we determined that we did not need a valuation allowance on our gross deferred tax assets. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes that it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets will be realized based on our expectation that we will be able to fully utilize the deductions that are ultimately recognized for tax purposes.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there have been no material changes in our reserve for uncertain tax positions.
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was 14.7% and 20.5%, respectively, compared to 20.4% and 20.7% for the same periods last year. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the lower effective tax rate was primarily due to our underwriting loss during the quarter, compared to an underwriting profit in the other periods presented.
Net state deferred income tax asset and liability amounts as of September 30, 2020, were reclassified on the consolidated balance sheets into other assets and accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities, respectively, from net federal deferred income taxes to conform to the current year presentation.

We experienced unfavorable reserve development of $156.8 million and $116.1 million during the first nine months of 2021 and 2020, respectively, which is reflected as “Incurred related to prior years in the table above.
Year-to-date September 30, 2021
The unfavorable prior year reserve development included $109 million attributable to accident year 2019 and $113 million to 2018 and prior accident years, partially offset by favorable development attributable to accident year 2020.
Our personal auto products incurred $48 million of unfavorable loss and loss adjustment expense (LAE) reserve development, with about 90% attributable to the Agency business. The unfavorable development was primarily attributable to a higher than anticipated frequency of reopened personal injury protection (PIP) claims, primarily in Florida, and higher than anticipated bodily injury severity, partially offset by less late reported claims than anticipated for accident year 2020 and lower adjusting expenses than anticipated.
Our Commercial Lines business experienced $91 million of unfavorable development, primarily due to increased injury severity and the emergence of large injury claims, at rates higher than originally anticipated, primarily in Texas and Florida.
25


Our Property business experienced $31 million of unfavorable development, primarily due to higher than anticipated severity and reopened claims activity in Florida.
Our special lines business experienced $12 million of favorable development. The remaining unfavorable development is attributable to our runoff business.
Year-to-date September 30, 2020
Approximately 80% of the unfavorable prior year reserve development was attributable to accident year 2018, with the remainder primarily related to accident year 2017 and prior accident years. During the second and third quarter 2020, we experienced favorable development on accident year 2019, primarily due to higher than anticipated salvage and subrogation recoveries, which almost fully offset the unfavorable development related to accident year 2019 we experienced during the first quarter 2020.
Our personal auto products incurred $47 million of unfavorable LAE reserve development, with the Agency and Direct auto business each contributing about half. The unfavorable LAE development was primarily attributable to revised estimates of our per claim settlement costs taken during the first quarter. We also experienced higher than anticipated frequency of reopened PIP claims, primarily in Florida, and late reported losses occurring toward the end of 2019 but not reported until 2020, which was partially offset by higher than anticipated salvage and subrogation recoveries.
Our Commercial Lines business experienced $104 million of unfavorable development, primarily due to increased injury severity and the emergence of large injury claims at rates higher than originally anticipated.
Our special lines and Property businesses experienced $22 million and $13 million, respectively, of favorable development.

1 Personal auto insurance accounted for 94% of the total Personal Lines segment net premiums earned during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020; insurance for our special lines products (e.g., motorcycles, ATVs, RVs, watercraft, and snowmobiles) accounted for the balance of the Personal Lines net premiums earned.
2 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, pretax profit (loss) includes $14.2 million and $42.5 million, respectively, of amortization expense associated with acquisition-related intangible assets attributable to our Property segment, and $14.2 million and $42.8 million for the same periods in 2020. See Note 12 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for further discussion.
3 Primarily includes Protective Insurance’s run-off business operations.
4 Pretax profit (loss) for fees and other revenues is allocated to operating segments.
5 Revenues represent recurring investment income and total net realized gains (losses) on securities; pretax profit is net of investment expense.
Our management uses underwriting margin and combined ratio as primary measures of underwriting profitability. The underwriting margin is the pretax underwriting profit (loss) expressed as a percentage of net premiums earned (i.e., revenues from underwriting operations). Pretax underwriting profit (loss) is calculated as net premiums earned plus fees and other revenues, less: (i) losses and loss adjustment expenses; (ii) policy acquisition costs; (iii) other underwriting expenses; and (iv) policyholder credits. Combined ratio is the complement of the underwriting margin. Following are the underwriting margins and combined ratios for our underwriting operations for the respective periods:

In an effort to manage interest rate risk, we may enter into forecasted transactions on Progressive’s debt issuances. We expect to reclassify $0.5 million (pretax) into interest expense during the next 12 months, related to net unrealized losses on forecasted transactions (see Note 4 – Debt in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders for further discussion).
Note 11 Litigation — The Progressive Corporation and/or its insurance subsidiaries are named as defendants in various lawsuits arising out of claims made under insurance policies written by our insurance subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. We consider all legal actions relating to such claims in establishing our loss and loss adjustment expense reserves.
In addition, The Progressive Corporation and/or its subsidiaries are named as defendants in a number of class action or individual lawsuits that challenge certain of the operations of the subsidiaries. These cases include those alleging damages as a result of, among other things, our subsidiaries’ practices in evaluating or paying medical or injury claims or benefits, including, but not limited to, personal injury protection, medical payments, uninsured motorist/underinsured motorist, bodily injury benefits, and workers’ compensation, and for reimbursing medical costs incurred by Medicare/Medicaid beneficiaries; our practices in evaluating or paying physical damage claims, including, but not limited to, our payment of total loss claims and
30


labor rates paid to auto body repair shops; our insurance product design; employment matters; and cases challenging other aspects of our claims, marketing, pricing, or sales practices or other business operations. Other insurance companies face many of these same issues.
The nature and volume of litigation pending against The Progressive Corporation and/or its insurance subsidiaries is similar to that which was disclosed in Note 12 Litigation in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders.
We plan to contest the pending lawsuits vigorously, but may pursue settlement negotiations in some cases, as we deem appropriate. Although outcomes of pending cases are uncertain until final disposition, we establish accruals for these lawsuits when it is probable that a loss has been or will be incurred and we can reasonably estimate potential loss exposure, which may include a range of loss. As to lawsuits for which the loss is considered neither probable or estimable, or is considered probable but not estimable, we do not establish an accrual. Nevertheless, we continue to evaluate this pending litigation to determine if any losses not deemed probable and estimable become so, at which point we would establish an accrual at our best estimate of the loss or range of loss.
With respect to our pending lawsuits that are not related to claims under insurance policies, the accruals that we have established, if any, were not material at September 30, 2021 or 2020, and there were no material settlements during 2020 or the first nine months of 2021. For most of these lawsuits, we do not consider any losses to be both probable and estimable, and we are unable to estimate a meaningful range of loss, if any, at this time, due to the factors discussed in Note 12 Litigation in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders. In the event that any one or more of these lawsuits results in a substantial judgment against us, or settlement by us, or if our accruals (if any) prove to be inadequate by a significant amount, the resulting liability could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, cash flows, and/or results of operations. For a further discussion on our pending litigation and related reserving policies, see Note 12 Litigation in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders.
Note 12 Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there were no changes to the carrying amount of goodwill. No accumulated goodwill impairment losses exist. We annually assess goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter or when circumstances warrant a review.
Intangible Assets
The following table is a summary of the net carrying amount of other intangible assets:

During the second quarter 2021, we recognized a $3.6 million trade name intangible asset, with an estimated two-year life, in connection with the Protective Insurance acquisition.
31


Amortization expense was $14.6 million and $43.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to $14.2 million and $42.8 million during the same periods last year.
Note 13 New Accounting Standards — We did not adopt any new accounting standards during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We assessed the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on our consolidated financial statements as well as material updates to previous assessments, if any, from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. There were no new material accounting standards issued in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, that impacted The Progressive Corporation.
Note 14 Acquisition — On June 1, 2021, The Progressive Corporation, through an indirect subsidiary, acquired all of the outstanding Class A and Class B common shares of Protective Insurance for $23.30 per common share in cash, or approximately $338 million in aggregate. Through its subsidiaries, Protective Insurance provides liability and workers’ compensation coverage for trucking and public transportation fleets, along with trucking industry independent contractors. As a result of the Protective Insurance acquisition, we will be able to expand our capabilities with the expertise Protective Insurance offers in larger fleet and affinity programs, by providing additional product lines for us to add to our portfolio. Protective Insurance and its subsidiaries represented 1% of companywide net premiums written during the third quarter 2021.
All assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. If new information is obtained within 12 months from the date of acquisition about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, we will adjust the amounts previously recorded. We recorded a $3.6 million intangible asset related to the Protective Insurance trade name, which is being amortized over 2 years; no other intangible assets were identified. For income tax purposes, the historical tax bases of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities carried over and were not recorded at fair value; therefore, no tax-basis goodwill was created.
At the date of acquisition, Protective Insurance had total assets of $1.7 billion, including investment securities of $1.1 billion; cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash and equivalents of $24.3 million; reinsurance recoverables of $452.4 million, and liabilities of $1.4 billion, consisting of unearned premiums of $66.9 million and loss and loss adjustment expense reserves of $1.1 billion. In addition, Protective Insurance had outstanding borrowings of $20.0 million under a revolving credit facility agreement that was repaid subsequent to acquisition. All of Protective Insurance’s contingencies were recognized as of the acquisition date.
Acquisition-related costs recognized in 2021 were not material to our results of operations. The pro forma financial information assuming the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the calendar year prior to the year of acquisition, as well as the revenues and earnings generated during the year of acquisition, were not material for disclosure purposes. The results of operations and financial condition of Protective Insurance have been included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consolidated balance sheets from the acquisition date. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our consolidated results included total revenue of $144.3 million and $190.8 million, respectively, and net income of $11.1 million and $13.4 million, from Protective Insurance.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

I. OVERVIEW
The Progressive Corporation’s insurance subsidiaries recognized growth in both premiums and policies in force in the third quarter 2021, compared to the same period last year. During the quarter, we generated $12.4 billion of net premiums written, which is an increase of $1.4 billion, or 13%, compared to the third quarter 2020. We ended the third quarter 2021 with 26.6 million companywide policies in force, which is 2.1 million more policies than were in force at September 30, 2020. During the third quarter 2021, we generated an underwriting loss, primarily reflecting significant catastrophe losses during the period, mainly from Hurricane Ida, which hit both the Gulf Coast and Northeastern United States and accounted for 70% of catastrophe losses during the quarter. Higher auto accident frequency and severity in our personal auto products also contributed to the underwriting loss during the third quarter. Our combined ratio was 100.4 for the third quarter 2021, 12.6 points higher than the same period last year.
Certain growth and profitability comparisons to the same period last year were, in part, impacted by the effects COVID-19 restrictions had on our comparable prior year results. During the third quarter of 2020, we continued to experience driving patterns that differed from levels historically experienced, which began in March 2020 when shelter-in-place restrictions were put in place to help stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. We also saw a significant reduction in auto accident frequency resulting from changes in driving patterns in 2020. During 2021, our usage-based insurance data has shown driving patterns have begun to stabilize, although Personal Lines auto mileage has not yet returned to pre-COVID levels. The impact from the pandemic should be considered when comparing the current year to the prior year.
The increase in personal auto severity reflects higher costs to both repair cars and for medical expenses. Our bodily injury coverage increased during the quarter due to a higher mix of more severe accidents. For our collision coverage, the year-over-year increase in severity primarily reflects an increase in the valuation of used vehicles in 2021, which increases total loss costs that are partly offset by higher salvage returns. We also had lower collision severity in the second quarter of 2020, due to a higher volume of subrogation collections relative to new claims made, as a result of the COVID-19 restrictions.
Our underwriting expense ratios were 1.5 points and 4.9 points lower for the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods last year, reflecting both actions taken during 2021 to reduce expenses and higher pandemic-related underwriting expenses incurred in 2020. During 2020, we issued credits to personal auto policyholders, which accounted for 0.3 points and 3.7 points for the third quarter and first nine months of 2020, respectively, and during the first half of 2020, we also recognized additional bad debt expense related to the billing leniencies and moratoriums that were in place beginning in March 2020 and continued through the middle of May 2020. As previously disclosed, we have been taking actions to address profitability and to strive to meet our stated objective of underwriting margins of at least four points on a calendar year basis. We began to file for personal auto rate increases earlier this year where appropriate, and during the third quarter 2021, rate increases became effective in 20 states, which had an average increase of about 6%. In the aggregate, rate changes for personal auto for the quarter were about 3%. Management continues to assess miles driven, driving patterns, loss severity, weather events, and other components of expected loss costs on a state-by-state basis and, where appropriate, file for rate adjustments accordingly. We are also looking to identify where we may need to tighten underwriting criteria further where losses indicate rate inadequacy. In addition to rate actions, during the third quarter 2021, we started reducing spend in certain types of advertising based on performance against our media and underwriting targets. We will continue to look at key performance indicators to assess where additional action may be needed and will react swiftly to address those needs. Taking actions to reach our target profit margin always takes precedence over growing premiums, and while these actions resulted in fewer new business applications during the quarter, and could impact growth in future periods, we strongly believe that these steps are necessary to get us well positioned for the future.
On a year-over-year basis, net income and comprehensive income decreased 92% and 101%, respectively, for the third quarter 2021 and 41% and 61% for the first nine months of 2021. The largest contributor to the year-over-year decreases was the reduction of underwriting income, which decreased 104% for the quarter and 60% for the first nine months of 2021, partially offset by an increase in net holding period gains for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period last year.

A. Insurance Operations
We evaluate growth in terms of both net premiums written and policies in force growth. All three of our operating segments contributed to our solid premium and policies in force growth during the third quarter on a year-over-year basis. Our companywide net premiums written grew 13%, with Personal Lines growing 7%, Commercial Lines 47%, and Property 16%, primarily reflecting an increase in policies in force from all of our segments. At September 30, 2021, on a year-over-year basis, policies in force grew 9% companywide, with Personal Lines, Commercial Lines, and Property growing 8%, 19%, and 13%, respectively.
The growth on a quarter-over-prior-year quarter in our commercial auto business includes a 20% increase in average written premium per policy in addition to an increase in policies in force. The increase in written premium per policy reflects a combination of a shift in the mix of business toward higher premium coverages, an increase in the number of vehicles per policy, and rate increases taken during the year.
During the third quarter 2021, new applications (i.e., issued policies) decreased 15% in our Personal Lines segment, with total new personal auto applications decreasing 16%. Agency auto new applications decreased 20% and Direct auto decreased 14% as a result of the actions taken to address profitability, as discussed above. New applications for our special lines products were down 8% during the third quarter 2021, primarily reflecting the significant new application growth during the third quarter 2020, as people were purchasing more special lines products as a way to practice social distancing. New applications increased 18% in our Commercial Lines business (excluding our transportation network company, business owners policy, and Protective Insurance products), and 16% in our Property segment.
On a year-over-year basis for the third quarter 2021, both our Personal Lines and Property renewal applications increased 11%, and Commercial Lines increased 15%. Total personal auto renewal applications increased 11% over the third quarter last year.
While we are taking actions to address profitability as discussed above, we remain focused on growth and realize that to grow policies in force, it is critical that we retain our customers for longer periods. Consequently, increasing retention continues to be one of our most important priorities. Our efforts to increase our share of multi-product households remains a key initiative and we will continue to make investments to improve the customer experience in order to support that goal. Policy life expectancy, which is our actuarial estimate of the average length of time that a policy will remain in force before cancellation or lapse in coverage, is our primary measure of customer retention in our Personal Lines, Commercial Lines, and Property businesses.
We evaluate retention using a trailing 12-month total auto policy life expectancy and a trailing 3-month policy life expectancy. The latter does not address seasonality and can reflect more volatility. As of the end of the third quarter 2021, our trailing 12-month total personal auto policy life expectancy increased 4%, compared to last year, with both the Agency and Direct channels up 4%. Our Commercial Lines and special lines trailing 12-month policy life expectancy increased 13% and 4%, respectively, year over year, and Property decreased 8%.
For the third quarter 2021, we experienced a companywide underwriting loss margin of 0.4%, compared to an underwriting profit margin of 12.2% for the same period last year. Our Commercial Lines segment was profitable during the third quarter 2021, with an underwriting profit margin of 10.5%. Our Personal Lines and Property segments each generated an underwriting loss during the period, due to significant catastrophe losses incurred during the quarter, that more than offset the underwriting profit in Commercial Lines. Our Personal Lines segment generated an underwriting loss margin of 0.2% for the quarter. Our special lines business also had an underwriting loss during the third quarter due to normal seasonality and contributed a 0.2 unfavorable point impact on our Personal Lines combined ratio. Our Property segment had an underwriting loss margin of 42.3% for the quarter. On a net basis (i.e., after reinsurance), our Property business incurred catastrophe losses during the quarter of $289.1 million, or 54.9 points on its combined ratio.
In addition to the significant catastrophe losses during the third quarter 2021, our personal auto incurred accident frequency was up 10% for the third quarter 2021, as compared to the prior year, and severity was up 12%. With more people driving and vehicle miles traveled increasing, loss frequency is up compared to the prior year; however, frequency remains lower than the levels we experienced prior to the onset of the pandemic. Collision is a significant driver of the increased severity we experienced during the current quarter as the continued increase in the valuation of used vehicles is increasing our total loss and repair costs.

B. Investments
The fair value of our investment portfolio was $52.3 billion at September 30, 2021, compared to $47.5 billion at December 31, 2020. The $4.8 billion increase from year-end 2020 reflects positive investment results and solid cash flows from operations, net of shareholder dividends, common stock repurchases, debt pay off, and the acquisition of Protective Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries (Protective Insurance) (see Note 14 – Acquisition for further discussion).
Our asset allocation strategy is to maintain 0%-25% of our portfolio in Group I securities, with the balance (75%-100%) of our portfolio in Group II securities (the securities allocated to Group I and II are defined below under Results of Operations – Investments). At September 30, 2021, 16% of our portfolio was allocated to Group I securities and 84% to Group II securities, compared to 14% and 86%, respectively, at December 31, 2020.
Our recurring investment income generated a pretax book yield of 1.8% for the third quarter 2021, compared to 2.3% for the same period in 2020, primarily due to investing new cash at lower interest rates. Our investment portfolio produced a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) total return of 0.2% and 1.7% for the third quarter 2021 and 2020, respectively. Both our fixed-income and common stock portfolios had FTE total returns of 0.2% for the third quarter 2021, compared to 1.1% and 9.6%, respectively, last year. The fixed-income return variance was due to the upward shift in interest rates that we have seen through the first nine months of the year. This negative effect on fixed-income returns has only been partially offset by tighter credit spreads across corporate, municipal, and securitized bonds.
At both September 30, 2021 and 2020, the fixed-income portfolio had a weighted average credit quality of AA- and a duration of 3.0 years, compared to AA- and 2.9 years at December 31, 2020. Our portfolio duration has remained relatively consistent over the previous twelve months and it remains below the midpoint of our 1.5-year to 5-year range, which we believe provides some protection against a further increase in interest rates.

II. FINANCIAL CONDITION
A. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Progressive’s insurance operations create liquidity by collecting and investing premiums from new and renewal business in advance of paying claims. Operations generated positive cash flows of $7.3 billion and $5.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in part due to collecting premiums at a faster rate than losses are being paid during 2021, as well as the policyholder credits paid from operating cash flow in 2020.
Our total capital (debt plus shareholders’ equity) was $23.5 billion, at book value, at September 30, 2021 and 2020, and $22.4 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase since year end primarily reflects comprehensive income, in part offset by the maturity of $500 million of 3.75% Senior Notes, common share repurchases, and common share dividends.
Our debt-to-total capital ratio remained below 30% during all reported periods, consistent with our financial policy. This ratio, which reflects debt as a percent of debt plus shareholders’ equity, was 20.9% at September 30, 2021, 23.0% at September 30, 2020, and 24.1% at December 31, 2020. The decrease from the prior periods in 2020 reflects the maturity of our 3.75% Senior Notes during the third quarter 2021. None of our outstanding senior notes have restrictive financial covenants or credit rating triggers.
We seek to deploy capital in a prudent manner and use multiple data sources and modeling tools to estimate the frequency, severity, and correlation of identified exposures, including, but not limited to, catastrophic and other insured losses, natural disasters, and other significant business interruptions, to estimate our potential capital needs.
During the first nine months of 2021, we returned capital to shareholders primarily through dividends and common share repurchases. Our Board of Directors declared a $0.10 per common share dividend in the first, second, and third quarters of 2021. These dividends, which were each $58.5 million in the aggregate per quarter, or $175.5 million on a year-to-date basis, were paid in April 2021, July 2021, and October 2021. In January 2021, we also paid common share dividends in the aggregate amount of $2.7 billion, or $4.60 per share (see Note 9 – Dividends for further discussion). In addition to the common share dividends, in March 2021 and September 2021, we paid Series B Preferred Share dividends in the aggregate amount of $26.8 million.
In accordance with our financial policies, if we believe our share price is trading below our view of fair value and we are in a strong capital position then we will look to repurchase our shares. In the third quarter, we witnessed some volatility in our share price that presented us with an opportunity to engage in share repurchases after a period of relative inactivity. During the first three quarters of 2021, we repurchased 1.8 million common shares, at a total cost of $167.2 million, including 0.7 million shares in the third quarter 2021, either in the open market or to satisfy tax withholding obligations as permitted under our equity compensation plans. We will continue to make decisions on returning capital to shareholders based on the strength of our capital position and the potential capital needs to expand our business operations.
In April 2021, we renewed the unsecured discretionary line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) with PNC Bank, National Association, in the maximum principal amount of $250 million. We did not engage in short-term borrowings, including any borrowings under our Line of Credit, to fund our operations or for liquidity purposes during the reported periods.
On June 1, 2021, Progressive acquired all of the outstanding Class A and Class B common shares of Protective Insurance for $23.30 per share, or approximately $338 million in aggregate. The acquisition was funded with cash held by Progressive. See Note 14 Acquisition for further discussion.
Based upon our capital planning and forecasting efforts, we believe we have sufficient capital resources and cash flows from operations to support our current business, scheduled principal and interest payments on our debt, anticipated dividends on our common shares and Series B Preferred Shares, our contractual obligations, and other expected capital requirements for the foreseeable future. We did not experience a significant change in our liquidity needs during the third quarter 2021. During the first nine months of 2021 and at all times during 2020, our total capital exceeded the sum of our regulatory capital layer plus our self-constructed extreme contingency layer, as described in Exhibit 13 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (2020 Annual Report to Shareholders).
36


B. Commitments and Contingencies
Contractual Obligations
During the first nine months of 2021, our contractual obligations have not changed materially from those discussed in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders.
Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
Our off-balance-sheet leverage includes purchase obligations and catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts. There have not been any material changes in off-balance-sheet items from those discussed in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders.

III. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – UNDERWRITING
A. Segment Overview
We report our underwriting operations in three segments: Personal Lines, Commercial Lines, and Property. As a component of our Personal Lines segment, we report our Agency and Direct business results to provide further understanding of our products by distribution channel.
The following table shows the composition of our companywide net premiums written, by segment, for the respective periods:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
Personal Lines
Agency 36  % 39  % 37  % 40  %
Direct 40  42  41  43 
Total Personal Lines1

Commercial Lines 19  14  17  13 
Property
Total underwriting operations 100  % 100  % 100  % 100  %
1 Personal auto insurance accounted for 93% of the total Personal Lines segment net premiums written during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 94% and 93%, respectively, for the same periods last year; insurance for our special lines products accounted for the balance.
Our Personal Lines business writes insurance for personal autos and special lines products (e.g., motorcycles, watercraft, and RVs). We currently write our Personal Lines products in all 50 states. We also offer our personal auto product (not special lines products) in the District of Columbia. Within Personal Lines we often refer to our four consumer segments, which include:
Sams - inconsistently insured;
Dianes - consistently insured and maybe a renter;
Wrights - homeowners who do not bundle auto and home; and
Robinsons - homeowners who bundle auto and home.
While our personal auto policies are primarily written for 6-month terms, we write 12-month auto policies in our Platinum agencies to promote bundled auto and home growth. At September 30, 2021, 13% of our Agency auto policies in force were 12-month policies, compared to 11% a year earlier. Our special lines products are written for 12-month terms.
Our Commercial Lines business writes auto-related liability and physical damage insurance, workers’ compensation coverage primarily for the transportation industry, and business-related general liability and property insurance, predominately for small businesses. The majority of our Commercial Lines business is written through the independent agency channel although our direct business is growing. The amount of commercial auto business written through the direct channel, excluding our transportation network company (TNC) business, grew 55% on a quarter-over-prior-year and represented 10% of premiums written for the third quarter 2021, compared to 9% a year earlier. We write Commercial Lines business in all 50 states and about 90% of these policies are written for 12-month terms. To serve our direct channel customers, we continued to expand our product offerings, including the addition of our business owners policy (BOP) product in 29 states by the end of the third quarter, through our in-house agency and BusinessQuote Explorer®, our digital platform for small business consumers.
Our Property business writes residential property insurance for single family homes, condominium unit owners, renters, etc. We write the majority of our Property business through the independent agency channel; however, we continue to expand the distribution of our Property product offerings in the direct channel, which represented about 24% of premiums written for the third quarter 2021, compared to 19% for the same period last year. Property policies are written for 12-month terms. We write residential property in 47 states, renters in 48 states, and flood insurance in 46 states; we also write all of these products in the District of Columbia. Our flood insurance is written primarily through the National Flood Insurance Program and is 100% reinsured.
38


B. Profitability
Profitability for our underwriting operations is defined by pretax underwriting profit, which is calculated as net premiums earned plus fees and other revenues less losses and loss adjustment expenses, policy acquisition costs, other underwriting expenses, and policyholder credits. We also use underwriting margin, which is underwriting profit or loss expressed as a percentage of net premiums earned, to analyze our results. For the respective periods, our underwriting profitability results were as follows:
  Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
  2021 2020 2021 2020

1 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, pretax profit (loss) includes $14.2 million and $42.5 million, respectively, of amortization expense associated with acquisition-related intangible assets attributable to our Property segment, and $14.2 million and $42.8 million for the respective periods last year.
2 Primarily reflects Protective Insurance’s run-off business operations. Underwriting margins for our other indemnity business are not meaningful (NM) due to the low level of premiums earned by such business.
The decreases in the companywide underwriting profit margins during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods last year, were primarily driven by higher accident frequency and severity, and higher catastrophe losses. See the Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses (LAE) section below for further discussion of our frequency and severity trends and catastrophe losses incurred during the periods.

2 Included in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, are 2.7 points and 2.8 points, respectively, of amortization expense associated with acquisition-related intangible assets attributable to our Property segment, and 3.2 points and 3.3 points for the respective periods last year. Excluding these additional expenses, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Property business would have reported expense ratios of 25.7 and 27.4, respectively, and combined ratios of 139.6 and 108.6. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, excluding these additional expenses, the Property business would have reported expense ratios of 26.4 and 26.8, respectively, and combined ratios of 122.3 and 111.5.
3 The accident year ratios include only the losses that occurred during the period noted. As a result, accident period results will change over time, either favorably or unfavorably, as we revise our estimates of loss costs when payments are made or reserves for that accident period are reviewed.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses (LAE)
  Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
(millions) 2021 2020 2021 2020
Increase (decrease) in net loss and LAE reserves $ 1,673.1  $ 775.6  $ 3,903.7  $ 891.7 
Paid losses and LAE 7,577.6  5,937.5  20,863.9  17,298.0 
Total incurred losses and LAE $ 9,250.7  $ 6,713.1  $ 24,767.6  $ 18,189.7 
Claims costs, our most significant expense, represent payments made and estimated future payments to be made, to or on behalf of our policyholders, including expenses needed to adjust or settle claims. Claims costs are a function of loss severity and frequency and, for our vehicle businesses, are influenced by inflation and driving patterns, among other factors, some of which are discussed below. In our Property business, severity is primarily a function of construction costs and the age of the structure. Accordingly, anticipated changes in these factors are taken into account when we establish premium rates and loss reserves. Loss reserves are estimates of future costs and our reserves are adjusted as underlying assumptions change and information develops.
Our total loss and LAE ratio increased 14.1 points for the third quarter 2021, compared to the same period last year, and 13.0 points on a year-to-date basis, primarily due to higher accident severity and frequency, and catastrophe losses.
The following table shows our consolidated catastrophe losses, excluding loss adjustment expenses, incurred during the periods:
  Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
($ in millions) 2021 2020 2021 2020

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, approximately 70% and 40%, respectively, of our catastrophe losses were related to Hurricane Ida, with nearly two-thirds of the losses impacting our vehicle businesses and the remainder our Property business. In our Property business, we retained approximately $185 million of losses and $15 million of allocated loss adjustment expenses (ALAE), with the excess covered under our occurrence excess of loss reinsurance program. We have responded, and plan to continue to respond, promptly to catastrophic events when they occur in order to provide exemplary claims service to our customers.
We do not have catastrophe-specific reinsurance for our Personal Lines or Commercial Lines businesses, but we reinsure portions of our Property business against various risks. The Property business reinsurance programs include: multi-year catastrophe excess of loss, aggregate excess of loss, and catastrophe bonds. During the second quarter 2021, we entered into new reinsurance contracts under our per occurrence excess of loss program for our Property business. The new reinsurance policies carry retention thresholds for losses and ALAE from a single catastrophic event of $200 million, an increase from the retention threshold on the prior contracts of $80 million. The increase in the threshold from the prior contract primarily reflects our ability to assume more direct risk on a companywide basis, while balancing this risk against the rising costs for these types of contracts. See Item 1 – Description of Business-Reinsurance in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, for a discussion of our various reinsurance programs. As of September 30, 2021, subject to our 2021 catastrophe aggregate excess of loss program, we have not exceeded the annual retention thresholds.

Under our various Property catastrophe-specific reinsurance, we ceded the following losses and ALAE, including development on prior year storms, during the periods:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
(millions) 2021 2020 2021 2020
Aggregate excess of loss:
Current accident year $ $ 135.3  $ $ 135.3 
Prior accident years 12.0  NA 25.5  NA
Per occurrence excess of loss:
Current accident year1

Prior accident years2

Total $ 262.0  $ 160.3  $ 417.6  $ 240.3 
NA = Not applicable; this reinsurance coverage was entered into on January 1, 2020.
1 Amount for the three months ended September 30, 2021, is solely attributable to Hurricane Ida.
2 Amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, is primarily attributable to Hurricane Irma, which exceeded the excess of loss retention threshold in 2017 and, therefore, all development on this prior accident year storm is fully ceded.
The following discussion of our severity and frequency trends in our personal auto business excludes comprehensive coverage because of its inherent volatility, as it is typically linked to catastrophic losses generally resulting from adverse weather. For our commercial auto products, the reported frequency and severity trends include comprehensive coverage. Comprehensive coverage insures against damage to a customer’s vehicle due to various causes other than collision, such as windstorm, hail, theft, falling objects, and glass breakage.
Due to the impacts of shelter-in-place requirements that occurred throughout much of 2020, we believe that comparing current year frequency and severity to the prior year are not meaningful for our personal auto business. The trend comparisons below compare a two-year annualized change between 2021 and 2019 for personal auto frequency and severity for all coverages, excluding comprehensive coverage, which we believe are more insightful when trying to understand our current year profitability given the impact that COVID-19 restrictions had on our 2020 trends.
We saw the number of vehicle miles driven decrease dramatically when the COVID-19 restrictions were first put in place, especially during the early months of the pandemic. Now that the shelter-in-place restrictions have been eliminated, our usage-based insurance data has shown that the variance between vehicle miles traveled and claims volume decreased as the number of claims grew at a faster pace during the third quarter 2021.
Total personal auto incurred severity (i.e., average cost per claim, including both paid losses and the change in case reserves) on a calendar-year basis increased about 12% and 8% during the third quarter and the first nine months of 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, and 10% and 9%, compared to the same periods in 2019. While the total change in severity is fairly consistent when comparing to prior year as well as to 2019, we believe the individual line coverages are not indicative of the underlying trends, primarily in the auto property damage and collision coverages due in part to the timing of salvage and subrogation collections in 2020. Therefore, we continue to believe comparisons to 2019 are more insightful.
Following are the changes we experienced in severity in our auto coverages on a 2021 year-over-2019 year annualized basis:
Bodily injury increased about 11% for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2021, due in part to a shift in the mix to more severe accidents compared to 2019.
Personal injury protection (PIP) increased about 10% during the third quarter 2021 and 8% during the first nine months of 2021, due in part to reopened claims, primarily in Florida.
Auto property damage increased about 8% and 7% for the third quarter 2021 and the first nine months of 2021, respectively, and collision increased 14% and 9%, in part due to shifts in the type of loss experienced, more total losses, and increased used car prices.
It is a challenge to estimate future severity, but we continue to monitor changes in the underlying costs, such as used car prices, vehicle repair costs, medical costs, health care reform, court decisions, and jury verdicts, along with regulatory changes and other factors that may affect severity.
Our personal auto incurred frequency, on a calendar-year annualized basis, decreased about 5% and 7% for the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2019. Following are the frequency changes we experienced by coverage, and primarily resulted from changes in driving patterns from those historically experienced:
Auto property damage, bodily injury, and PIP decreased about 9%, 11%, and 7%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2021 and 10% to 11% for the first nine months of 2021, compared to 2019.
Collision decreased about 1% for the quarter and 3% for the first nine months of 2021.
42


For reference, on a year-over-year basis for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2021, frequency increased 10% and 16%, respectively, for all coverages, excluding comprehensive coverage.
We will continue to analyze trends to distinguish changes in our experience from other external factors, such as changes in the number of vehicles per household, miles driven, vehicle usage, gasoline prices, advances in vehicle safety, and unemployment rates, versus those resulting from shifts in the mix of our business or changes in driving patterns, to allow us to react quickly to price for these trends and to reserve more accurately for our loss exposures.
The changes we are disclosing in the paragraph below for our commercial auto products’ severity and frequency use a trailing 12-month period and exclude our TNC business and Protective Insurance. Using a trailing 12-month period addresses inherent seasonality trends in the commercial auto products and lessens the effects of month-to-month variability, including the impact of COVID-19 restrictions. Since the loss patterns in the TNC business are not indicative of our other commercial auto products, disclosing severity and frequency trends excluding that business is more indicative of our overall experience for the majority of our commercial auto products.
For the trailing 12-month period ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, incurred severity in our commercial auto products increased 10% and frequency increased 5%. The increase in severity is in part due to increased medical costs and actuarially determined reserves due to accelerating paid loss trends and shifts in the mix of business to for-hire transportation, which has higher average severity than the business auto and contractor business market targets. These loss frequency and severity trends appear to be aligning more closely with what we forecasted in our rate level indications. When comparing the trailing 12-month period for 2021 to the trailing 12-month period for 2019, on an annualized basis, our commercial auto products experienced an increase in severity of 12% and a decrease in frequency of 5%.
The table below presents the actuarial adjustments implemented and the loss reserve development experienced in the following periods on a companywide basis:

(Increase) decrease to calendar year combined ratio 0.4   pts.  pts. (0.5)  pts. (0.4)  pts.
Total development consists of both actuarial adjustments and “all other development” on prior accident years. The actuarial adjustments represent the net changes made by our actuarial staff to both current and prior accident year reserves based on regularly scheduled reviews. Through these reviews, our actuaries identify and measure variances in the projected frequency and severity trends, which allow them to adjust the reserves to reflect the current cost trends. For our Property business, 100% of catastrophe losses are reviewed monthly, and any development on catastrophe reserves are included as part of the actuarial adjustments. For the Personal Lines and Commercial Lines businesses, development for catastrophe losses for the vehicle businesses would be reflected in “all other development,” discussed below, to the extent they relate to prior year reserves. We report these actuarial adjustments separately for the current and prior accident years to reflect these adjustments as part of the total prior accident years development.
“All other development” represents claims settling for more or less than reserved, emergence of unrecorded claims at rates different than anticipated in our incurred but not recorded (IBNR) reserves, and changes in reserve estimates on specific claims. Although we believe the development from both the actuarial adjustments and “all other development” generally results from the same factors, we are unable to quantify the portion of the reserve development that might be applicable to any one or more of those underlying factors.

43


Our objective is to establish case and IBNR reserves that are adequate to cover all loss costs, while incurring minimal variation from the date the reserves are initially established until losses are fully developed. Our ability to meet this objective is impacted by many factors. Changes in case law, particularly in PIP environments, can make it difficult to estimate reserves timely and with minimal variation. See Note 6 – Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Reserves, for a more detailed discussion of our prior accident years development. We continue to focus on our loss reserve analysis, attempting to enhance accuracy and to further our understanding of our loss costs.
Underwriting Expenses
The companywide underwriting expense ratio (i.e., policy acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses and policyholder credits, net of fees and other revenues, expressed as a percentage of net premiums earned) decreased 1.5 points for the third quarter and 4.9 points for the first nine months of 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily reflecting 0.3 points and 3.7 points in 2020, respectively, of policyholder credits issued to personal auto customers, and 0.1 points of policyholder credits issued to commercial auto customers in both periods of 2020. In addition, the decrease in the underwriting expense ratio included a 1.5 point reduction in advertising expenses on a quarter-over-prior-year-quarter basis, reflecting a 14% decrease in advertising spend as part of our actions taken to address profitability.
Progressive’s other underwriting expenses, net of fees and other revenues and excluding policyholder credits, increased 3% and 1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods last year. The increase in underwriting expense for the third quarter 2021 is primarily due to the prior year reduction in the allowance for premium receivables, resulting from higher than anticipated collections, partially offset by a decrease in advertising spend in the third quarter 2021 on a year-over-year basis. On a year-to-date basis, advertising spend increased 8% year over year.

C. Growth
For our underwriting operations, we analyze growth in terms of both premiums and policies. Net premiums written represent the premiums from policies written during the period, less any premiums ceded to reinsurers. Net premiums earned, which are a function of the premiums written in the current and prior periods, are earned as revenue over the life of the policy using a daily earnings convention. Policies in force, our preferred measure of growth since it removes the variability due to rate changes or mix shifts, represents all policies under which coverage was in effect as of the end of the period specified.

Although new policies are necessary to maintain a growing book of business, we recognize the importance of retaining our current customers as a critical component of our continued growth. As shown in the tables below, we measure retention by policy life expectancy. We review our customer retention for our personal auto products using both a trailing 3-month and a trailing 12-month period. We believe changes in policy life expectancy using a trailing 12-month period measure is indicative of recent experience, mitigates the effects of month-to-month variability, and addresses seasonality. Although using a trailing 3-month measure does not address seasonality and can reflect more volatility, this measure is more responsive to current experience and generally can be an indicator of how our retention rates are moving.
To analyze growth, we review new policies, rate levels, and the retention characteristics of our segments.

In our Personal Lines business, we experienced negative new application growth in the third quarter 2021 in response to us raising rates and tightening underwriting criteria during the second and third quarters 2021. The decrease in new applications during the third quarter 2021 resulted from decreases in both our personal auto and special lines products.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, our personal auto new application growth decreased 16% and increased 1%, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. The decrease in new applications reflect both actions taken during 2021 as well as the impact of third quarter 2020 activity that increased new applications last year.
During the third quarter 2021, rate increases became effective in 20 states, which had an average increase of about 6%. In the aggregate, rate changes for personal auto for the quarter were about 3% and about 5% for the year. These rate changes, coupled with reduced advertising spend and tightening underwriting criteria in consumer segments where losses indicate rate inadequacy, are the actions that we are taking to address rising auto accident frequency and severity as people are driving more. We will continue to manage growth and profitability in accordance with our long-standing goal of growing as fast as we can as long as we can provide good customer service at or below a companywide 96 combined ratio on a calendar-year basis.
In addition to the actions taken in 2021, during the third quarter 2020, new applications were elevated due in part to increased shopping during the period along with the impact from personal injury protection reform in Michigan and government stimulus checks. Early in the pandemic, the COVID-19 restrictions greatly reduced consumer shopping, which resumed to a great extent during the third quarter 2020.
During the third quarter 2021, we continued to see strong renewal personal auto application growth, we believe aided in part by our competitive product offerings and position in the marketplace. On a year-to-date basis, rate decreases taken throughout 2020 also helped spur the increase in renewal applications.
Our special lines products saw new applications decrease 8% and increase 5% during the quarter and year-to-date period, respectively. Year-over-year new application growth in the third quarter 2021 was less than the first nine months due to the significant application growth we experienced last year. During the third quarter 2020, we recorded a 21% increase in new applications due to high demand in our special lines products reflecting the overall growth in the RV, boat, and motorcycle industries as consumers focused on activities that promoted social distancing.
At the end of the third quarter 2021, we saw our Robinsons continue to enjoy year-over-year growth in personal auto policies in force that outpaced our other consumer segments (Sams, Dianes, and Wrights). New auto applications decreased year over year across all four consumer segments for the quarter. Quote volume decreased on a year-over-year basis for the third quarter in all consumer segments, except Robinsons. During the third quarter 2021, compared to the same period last year, all consumer segments saw a decreased rate of conversion.
We report our Agency and Direct business results separately as components of our Personal Lines segment to provide further understanding of our products by distribution channel. The channel discussions below are focused on personal auto insurance since this product accounted for 93% of the Personal Lines segment net premiums written during the third quarter and the first nine months of 2021.

The Agency business includes business written by more than 40,000 independent insurance agencies that represent Progressive, as well as brokerages in New York and California. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, the Agency auto business experienced a decrease in new applications, primarily due to the rate and underwriting changes previously discussed. During the quarter, new auto applications were down in 44 states, including all of our top 10 largest Agency states. Each of our consumer segments experienced a reduction in new applications and, due to growth in policy renewals, growth in policies in force.
During the third quarter 2021, we experienced a decrease in Agency auto quote volume of 5% and a decrease of 17% in the rate of conversion (i.e., converting a quote to a sale). During the first nine months of 2021, Agency auto quote volume increased 2%, while rate of conversion decreased 5%, compared to the same period last year. For the third quarter, each consumer segment other than the Robinsons saw decreases in quote volume, and for the year, each consumer segment other than the Wrights saw increases, compared to last year. The rate of conversion was down significantly in the third quarter 2021, compared to the same period last year, reflecting rate increases and the impact from tightening underwriting criteria this year, along with elevated conversion rates last year due in part to coverage reform in Michigan.
We experienced an increase in the percentage of Agency auto policies written for 12-month terms, primarily bundled policies, which have about twice the amount of net premiums written compared to 6-month policies. At the end of the third quarter 2021, 13% of our Agency auto policies in force were 12-month policies, compared to about 11% a year earlier. Written premium per policy on new and renewal Agency auto business was up 2%, compared to the third quarter last year.

The Direct business includes business written directly by Progressive on the Internet, through mobile devices, and over the phone. The Direct business experienced a decrease in new application growth during the third quarter 2021, which primarily reflects a decrease in advertising spend during the quarter and the rate and underwriting changes discussed elsewhere. During the quarter, new auto applications were down in 32 states, including all of our top 10 largest Direct states. During the third quarter, similar to Agency auto, although new applications decreased our Direct auto policies in force grew across all consumer segments, compared to last year.
47


During the third quarter 2021, we experienced a decrease in Direct auto quote volume of 12%, while our rate of conversion decreased 2%. During the first nine months of 2021,we experienced a decrease in Direct auto quote volume of 3%, while our rate of conversion increased 7%, compared to the same period last year. The decreases we experienced in our quote volume primarily reflect both the decrease in advertising spending during the third quarter 2021, and higher than expected quote volume last year, reflecting increased shopping in the third quarter 2020 that was delayed from the second quarter due to the COVID-19 restrictions. All consumer segments saw a decrease in quotes during the quarter, with the Sams showing the largest decrease of 16%, and on a year-over-year basis, all consumer segments saw a decrease in quotes.
During the third quarter 2021, written premium per policy for new Direct auto business decreased 4% and renewal business was flat. The decrease in the third quarter year over year is primarily driven by a shift in the mix of business. The rate increases did not have a significant effect on written premium per policy for the quarter since they were predominately effective later in the period.
E. Commercial Lines
The following table shows our year-over-year changes for our Commercial Lines business, excluding our TNC, BOP, and Protective Insurance products:

Our Commercial Lines business operates in five traditional business markets, which include business auto, for-hire transportation, contractor, for-hire specialty, and tow markets, primarily written through the agency channel. We also write TNC business and BOP insurance. With the acquisition of Protective Insurance and its subsidiaries during the second quarter, we expanded our offerings to larger fleet, workers’ compensation coverage for the transportation industry, and affinity programs.
Similar to our experience in our personal auto businesses, our Commercial Lines business results for the first half of 2020 were negatively impacted by COVID-19 restrictions, which influenced the demands and general consumer habits for goods and services provided by our Commercial Lines customers and required that certain businesses undergo temporary closure. During the third quarter 2020, Commercial Lines experienced significant new application growth, primarily driven by growth in our for-hire transportation business market target, due to greater demand for shipping services in light of the pandemic.
During the third quarter 2021, Commercial Lines continued to experience very strong new application growth that began in the third quarter 2020, reflecting continued improvement in the economy and our competitiveness in the marketplace. The new application growth during the third quarter was primarily driven by continued growth in our for-hire transportation business market target.
During the third quarter 2021, demand in the for-hire transportation market drove new customer shopping, which resulted in a 15% increase in quote volume and a 3% increase in the rate of conversion, compared to the same period last year. During the quarter, miles traveled in our TNC business increased significantly, compared to the third quarter last year when COVID-19 restrictions were in place. Our TNC net premiums written are impacted by miles driven and our third quarter 2021 net premiums written reflected the increase in rideshare miles that started to increase during the second half of 2020.
During the third quarter 2021, written premium per policy for new commercial auto business increased 21% and renewal business increased 19%, compared to the same period last year. The increases were due to more vehicles per policy, a shift in the mix of business toward higher premium coverages, and rate increases.

Our Property business writes residential property insurance for homeowners, other property owners, and renters, in the agency and direct channels. During the third quarter 2021, our Property business experienced a solid increase in new applications, primarily driven by growth in our direct channel and a continued rebound in the housing market for new home sales. Our Property segment was not significantly impacted by COVID-19 restrictions during 2020.
Despite rate increases taken during the last 12 months in our home product, we did not experience the same rate of change in written premium per policy on a year-over-year basis due to a shift in the mix of business to a larger share of renters policies, which have lower written premiums per policy. Our policy life expectancy decreased from the same period last year, primarily due to targeted underwriting changes being made in states where losses indicate rate inadequacy.
G. Income Taxes
A deferred tax asset or liability is a tax benefit or expense that is expected to be realized in a future period. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, we reported net federal deferred tax liabilities. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, we had net current income taxes payable of $36.2 million, $197.1 million, and $163.5 million, respectively, which were reported as part of other liabilities.
Our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was 14.7% and 20.5%, respectively, compared to 20.4% and 20.7% for the same periods last year. The lower effective tax rate for the current quarter was primarily due to our underwriting loss during the quarter, compared to an underwriting profit in the other periods presented.

IV. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – INVESTMENTS
A. Investment Results
Our management philosophy governing the portfolio is to evaluate investment results on a total return basis. The fully taxable equivalent (FTE) total return includes recurring investment income, adjusted to a fully taxable amount for certain securities that receive preferential tax treatment (e.g., municipal securities), and total net realized, and changes in total net unrealized, gains (losses) on securities.
The following table summarizes investment results for the periods ended September 30:
  Three Months Nine Months
  2021 2020 2021 2020
Pretax recurring investment book yield (annualized) 1.8  % 2.3  % 1.9  % 2.5  %
Weighted average FTE book yield (annualized) 1.8  2.3  1.9  2.5 
FTE total return:
Fixed-income securities 0.2  1.1  0.3  5.8 
Common stocks 0.2  9.6  21.0  5.8 
Total portfolio 0.2  1.7  2.1  5.7 
The decrease in the book yield compared to last year reflects that during the past twelve months we invested new cash from operations and portfolio turnover in lower interest rate securities. The decrease in our fixed-income total return reflects the increase in interest rates during 2021. During the first half of 2021, we held a common stock outside our indexed fund that had significant return volatility, which contributed to the significant return for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The prior year returns in our common stock portfolio reflect the initial market decline due to COVID concerns in early 2020 and the subsequent market rebound.
A further break-down of our FTE total returns for our fixed-income portfolio for the periods ended September 30, follows:

1 Represents ratings at period end. Credit quality ratings are assigned by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. To calculate the weighted average credit quality ratings, we weight individual securities based on fair value and assign a numeric score of 0-5, with non-investment-grade and non-rated securities assigned a score of 0-1. To the extent the weighted average of the ratings falls between AAA and AA+, we assign an internal rating of AAA-.
2 Our portfolio reflects the effect of net unsettled security transactions; at September 30, 2021, we had $399.7 million in other liabilities, compared to $469.2 million and $95.5 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
The total fair value of the portfolio at September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020, included $2.9 billion, $2.8 billion, and $6.2 billion, respectively, of securities held in a consolidated, non-insurance subsidiary of the holding company, net of any unsettled security transactions. During the first nine months of 2021, we used a portion of these investments to pay our common share dividends, repurchase common shares, and pay off debt.

Our asset allocation strategy is to maintain 0%-25% of our portfolio in Group I securities, with the balance (75%-100%) of our portfolio in Group II securities.
We define Group I securities to include:
common equities,
nonredeemable preferred stocks,
redeemable preferred stocks, except for 50% of investment-grade redeemable preferred stocks with cumulative dividends, which are included in Group II, and
all other non-investment-grade fixed-maturity securities.
Group II securities include:
short-term securities, and
all other fixed-maturity securities, including 50% of the investment-grade redeemable preferred stocks with cumulative dividends.
We believe this asset allocation strategy allows us to appropriately assess the risks associated with these securities for capital purposes and is in line with the treatment by our regulators.

1 We did not hold any non-investment-grade redeemable preferred stocks at September 30, 2021 and 2020, or December 31, 2020.
To determine the allocation between Group I and Group II, we use the credit ratings from models provided by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) for classifying our residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, excluding interest-only securities, and the credit ratings from nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (NRSRO) for all other debt securities. NAIC ratings are based on a model that considers the book price of our securities when assessing the probability of future losses in assigning a credit rating. As a result, NAIC ratings can vary from credit ratings issued by NRSROs. Management believes NAIC ratings more accurately reflect our risk profile when determining the asset allocation between Group I and Group II securities.
Unrealized Gains and Losses
As of September 30, 2021, our fixed-maturity portfolio had pretax net unrealized gains, recorded as part of accumulated other comprehensive income, of $474.5 million, compared to $1,226.1 million and $1,206.6 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The decrease in unrealized gains from both periods in 2020 was primarily due to increasing interest rates, which resulted in valuation declines in all fixed-maturity sectors, most prominently in the U.S. government and corporate debt securities portfolios.
See Note 2 – Investments for a further break-out of our gross unrealized gains and losses.

Fixed-Income Securities
The fixed-income portfolio is managed internally and includes fixed-maturity securities, short-term investments, and nonredeemable preferred stocks.
Following are the primary exposures for our fixed-income portfolio. Details of our policies related to these exposures can be found in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our 2020 Annual Report to Shareholders.
Interest rate risk - our duration of 3.0 years at September 30, 2021, fell within our acceptable range of 1.5 to 5 years. The duration distribution of our fixed-income portfolio, excluding short-term investments, represented by the interest rate sensitivity of the comparable benchmark U.S. Treasury Notes, was:

1 The ratings in the table above are assigned by NRSROs. The non-investment-grade fixed-income securities based upon our Group I classification represented 5.3% of the total fixed-income portfolio at September 30, 2021, compared to 2.1% at September 30, 2020 and 2.9% at December 31, 2020.

Concentration risk - we did not have any investments in a single issuer, either overall or in the context of individual assets classes and sectors, that exceeded our thresholds during the third quarter 2021.
Prepayment and extension risk - we did not experience significant adverse prepayment or extension of principal relative to our cash flow expectations in the portfolio during the third quarter 2021.
Liquidity risk - our overall portfolio remains very liquid and we believe that it is sufficient to meet expected near-term liquidity requirements.
The short-to-intermediate duration of our portfolio provides a source of liquidity, as we expect approximately $4.9 billion, or 19.3%, of principal repayment from our fixed-income portfolio, excluding U.S. Treasury Notes and short-term investments, during the remainder of 2021 and all of 2022. Cash from interest and dividend payments provides an additional source of recurring liquidity.

2 The securities in this category are insured by a Government Sponsored Entity (GSE) and/or collateralized by mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA).
In the residential mortgage-backed sector, our portfolio consists of deals that are backed by high-credit quality borrowers or have strong structural protections through underlying loan collateralization. During the first nine months of 2021, we selectively added to this sector.

During the third quarter 2021, we were active in purchasing single-asset/single-borrower securities in both new issue and secondary markets, in addition to focusing on adding to some of our existing positions in the high-credit quality office and life sciences sectors. The market tone remained positive during the third quarter with credit spreads seeing a small tightening.
During the third quarter 2021, we sold some of our AAA-rated securities, in both the fixed-rate and floating-rate sectors, and continued scaling back on positions that met or exceeded our performance objectives or were no longer core to our strategy.

During the third quarter 2021, we selectively added to our automobile, equipment, whole business securitization, and other OABS sectors mostly through new issuances as we viewed spreads, and potential returns, across this sector to be less attractive compared to previous quarters. Our allocation to collateralized loan obligation securities increased during the quarter, as we perceived the sector provided better return potential than the other OABS sectors, primarily focusing on higher credit tranched securities in the capital structure.

Included in revenue bonds were $478.3 million of single-family housing revenue bonds issued by state housing finance agencies, of which $342.2 million were supported by individual mortgages held by the state housing finance agencies and $136.1 million were supported by mortgage-backed securities.
Of the programs supported by mortgage-backed securities, approximately 75% were collateralized by Ginnie Mae mortgages, which are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government; the remaining 25% were collateralized by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgages. Of the programs supported by individual mortgages held by the state housing finance agencies, the overall credit quality rating was AA+. Most of these mortgages were supported by the Federal Housing Administration, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, or private mortgage insurance providers.
As spreads tightened during the quarter, we continued to reduce our allocation to the municipal sector. Our sales were primarily in revenue bonds that were purchased in 2020 when spreads were wider and offered attractive performance opportunities. As mutual funds continued receiving strong inflows from investors, the municipal sector has performed well. At current valuations, however, municipal bonds are less attractive to us on a relative value basis.

During the third quarter of 2021, the valuation of our corporate debt portfolio saw a modest increase as credit spreads narrowed slightly. Activity during the quarter was primarily a combination of selling some of our investment-grade longer-maturity holdings we believed had exceeded our performance objective and continuing to selectively increase our allocation to high-yield securities that we believed would benefit from the continuation of the economic recovery.
We also shortened the maturity profile of the corporate portfolio to 3.1 years at September 30, 2021, compared to 3.3 years at June 30, 2021. Overall, our corporate securities, as a percentage of the fixed-income portfolio, has remained consistent since the end of the second quarter 2021. At September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, the portfolio was approximately 23% of our fixed-income portfolio.

The majority of our preferred securities have fixed-rate dividends until a call date and then, if not called, generally convert to floating-rate dividends. The interest rate duration of our preferred securities is calculated to reflect the call, floor, and floating-rate features. Although a preferred security will remain outstanding if not called, its interest rate duration will reflect the variable nature of the dividend. Our non-investment-grade preferred stocks were all with issuers that maintain investment-grade senior debt ratings.
We also face the risk that dividend payments on our preferred stock holdings could be deferred for one or more periods or skipped entirely. As of September 30, 2021, all of our preferred securities continued to pay their dividends in full and on time. Approximately 84% of our preferred stock securities pay dividends that have tax preferential characteristics, while the balance pay dividends that are fully taxable.
During third quarter 2021, our preferred stock portfolio produced a positive return as their high level of income offset slight price declines due to higher interest rates.

The majority of our common stock portfolio is an indexed portfolio, which consists of individual holdings selected based on their contribution to the correlation with the Russell 1000 Index. We held 832 out of 1,026, or 81%, of the common stocks comprising the index at September 30, 2021, which made up 96% of the total market capitalization of the index. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the year-to-date total return, based on GAAP income, was within our targeted tracking error, which is +/- 50 basis points, while at September 30, 2020, the year-to-date total return, based on GAAP income, was outside the targeted tracking error.
The other risk investments consist of limited partnership interests. During the third quarter 2021, we funded $0.7 million on a partnership investment and have an open funding commitment of $5.4 million at September 30, 2021 on this investment. In addition, partnership investments with a value of $7.7 million at September 30, 2021 were assumed as part of our acquisition of Protective Insurance.

In addition, investors should be aware that generally accepted accounting principles prescribe when a company may reserve for particular risks, including litigation exposures. Accordingly, results for a given reporting period could be significantly affected if and when we establish reserves for one or more contingencies. Also, our regular reserve reviews may result in adjustments of varying magnitude as additional information regarding claims activity becomes known. Reported results, therefore, may be volatile in certain accounting periods.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The duration of the financial instruments held in our portfolio that are subject to interest rate risk was 3.0 years at September 30, 2021 and 2020, and 2.9 years at December 31, 2020. The weighted average beta of the equity portfolio was 1.04 at September 30, 2021, 1.02 at September 30, 2020, and 1.09 at December 31, 2020. We have not experienced a material impact when compared to the tabular presentations of our interest rate and market risk sensitive instruments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
We, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, have established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. The disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer reviewed and evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effectively serving the stated purposes as of the end of the period covered by this report.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In May 2021, the Board of Directors approved an authorization for the Company to repurchase up to 25 million of its common shares. This authorization does not have an expiration date. Share repurchases under this authorization may be accomplished through open market purchases, through privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to our equity incentive awards, or otherwise, and may include trading plans entered into with one or more brokerage firms in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. During the third quarter 2021, all repurchases were accomplished in conjunction with our equity incentive awards or through the open market at the then-current market prices. Progressive’s financial policies state that we will repurchase shares to neutralize dilution from equity-based compensation in the year of issuance and as an option to effectively use under leveraged capital.
