Major Rating Factors: Fair reserve development (3.5 on a scale of 0 to 10) as the level of reserves has at times been insufficient to cover claims. Deficiencies in the two year reserve development occurred in three of the previous five years and ranged between 19.6% and 26.0%. Fair profitability index (4.7) with operating losses during 2022 and 2023. Good long-term capitalization index (5.3) based on good current risk adjusted capital (severe loss scenarios) reflecting some improvement over results in 2023.
Other Rating Factors: Good liquidity (5.7) with sufficient resources (cash flows and marketable investments) to handle a spike in claims. Good overall results on stability tests (6.9) despite negative cash flow from operations for 2025 and fair risk adjusted capital in prior years. Stability strengths include good operational trends and excellent risk diversification.
Stability Factors: C - Past results on our Risk-Adjusted Capital tests. F - Negative cash flow.
