1 The decrease in net premiums written was primarily attributable to our transportation network company (TNC) business, driven by a decrease in the monthly adjustment for projected mileage, which is the basis for computing premiums. Excluding all TNC business, our total Commercial Lines net premiums written would have decreased 3% for the month.
2 Included in both the expense ratio and the combined ratio is 17.8 points of Florida policyholder credits in the Personal Lines vehicles agency channel and 15.9 points in the Personal Lines vehicles direct channel. Excluding these policyholder credits, the total Personal Lines business would have reported an expense ratio of 20.4 and combined ratio of 86.5. See the Monthly Commentary at the end of this release for additional discussion.
3 Represents catastrophe losses incurred during the period, including development on prior events and the impact of reinsurance, if any, as a percent of net premiums earned.
4 Represents adjustments solely based on our normally scheduled actuarial reviews. For our Personal Lines property business, the actuarial reserving methodology includes changes to catastrophe losses, while the reviews in our personal and commercial vehicle businesses do not include catastrophes.

Monthly Commentary
•Since Florida insurance reform was enacted in early 2023, we have seen lower loss costs on certain types of personal auto accident claims and favorable reserve development, and we have experienced strong profitability in our Florida personal auto business. Despite actions to lower rates in the last year, it is probable that our personal auto profit in Florida for the 2023 to 2025 period will exceed the statutory profit limit that a Florida statute imposes on the profit that any insurance group can earn on personal auto insurance over any three-calendar-year period. In such event, we would need to credit any profit above the limit to all Florida personal auto policyholders active at December 31, 2025. As a result, in September 2025, we recorded a $950 million policyholder credit expense, which represents our current estimate of the profit we will earn on the three-calendar-year period ending December 31, 2025, in excess of the permitted profit limit. The estimated liability will continue to be refined through the end of the fourth quarter 2025, given the continuing exposure to potential significant storm activity through the Atlantic hurricane season, which continues into late November 2025, and the other factors that impact reserve development through the first quarter of 2026 on losses for applicable accident years, as described in our 2025 Second Quarter Form 10-Q. In early 2026, we expect to provide credits to policyholders active at December 31, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, we had approximately 2.7 million personal auto policyholders active in Florida.
Events
Our third quarter Investor Relations conference call is currently scheduled to be held on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. eastern time.

We plan to file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC on Monday, November 3, 2025. If the dates of our events, which are always subject to change, are rescheduled, we will announce the change in a press release as soon as practical and publish it on our investor website.

•whether our investments in certain tax-advantaged projects generate the anticipated returns;
•the impact from not managing to short-term earnings expectations in light of our goal to maximize the long-term value of the enterprise;

•other matters described from time to time in our releases and publications, and in our periodic reports and other documents filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Any forward-looking statements are made only as of the date presented. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or developments or otherwise.
In addition, investors should be aware that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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.
