Employers Holdings, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results and Declares Regular Quarterly Dividend of $0.34 per Share
Employers Holdings swung to Q3 net income of $11.6 million ($0.64 per diluted share) from a year-ago loss of $8.3 million, with adjusted net income of $12.8 million versus a $(25.5) million loss.
The GAAP combined ratio improved to 108.4% from 129.7%, driven mainly by the absence of last year's ~$38 million reserve strengthening. But the recovery came alongside deliberate shrinkage: gross premiums written fell 18% to $151.1 million and policies in force declined 8% to 124,043.
Net investment income rose 24% to $32.3 million on higher yields and private equity returns, and the company returned $24.4 million to shareholders while declaring a $0.34 quarterly dividend.
Management is banking on new products — excess workers' comp already at 31 accounts and $6.5 million of premium, plus a large-deductible offering targeted for next year — to reignite profitable growth.
