Selective Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results
Selective Insurance reported Q3 2026 net income of $2.11 per diluted share and non-GAAP operating income of $2.37, up 35% YoY, with operating ROE of 16.9%.
The combined ratio improved 1.8 points to 96.8%, helped by a lower loss ratio and zero prior-year casualty reserve development, though catastrophe losses rose to 5.4 points. Net premiums written fell 7% as management deliberately shed underpriced business, particularly an 8% decline in Standard Commercial Lines.
The board raised the quarterly dividend 12% to $0.48 per share — the thirteenth consecutive annual increase — and authorized a new $200 million buyback, on top of $53 million remaining. Full-year guidance was modestly updated, with after-tax net investment income raised to $490 million from $480 million.
