$KNSLPress releaseOct 22, 2026, 4:10 PM ETRead the release

Kinsale reported Q3 2026 GAAP net income of $98.1 million ($4.36 diluted EPS), down from $141.6 million ($6.09) a year earlier, driven by a $37.6 million pre-tax loss on investment portfolio repositioning. Non-GAAP net operating earnings rose 5.9% to $128.3 million ($5.70 per diluted share vs. $5.21), and underwriting income grew to $107.1 million on a strong 75.4% combined ratio. Top-line pressure is the concern: gross written premiums fell 4.8% to $462.9 million, with the Commercial Property Division down 26.8% amid heightened competition, while casualty grew just 0.9%.
