Everest Group reported second quarter 2026 net income of $559 million, or $14.22 per diluted share, down from $680 million in the same period last year. The global reinsurance and insurance provider achieved an annualised total shareholder return of 16.8% and a combined ratio of 92.0%. The company's core businesses, comprising Reinsurance Treaty and Global Wholesale & Specialty segments, generated $317 million in underwriting income with a 90.0% combined ratio. Gross written premium from core businesses totalled $3.7 billion, down 7.1% year-over-year. Everest repurchased $395 million of common shares during the quarter. Book value per share increased to $398.83 at 30 June 2026 from $379.83 at year-end 2025. President and CEO Jim Williamson highlighted the company's strong underwriting performance and balance sheet optimisation whilst noting share repurchases remain a top priority.
Everest Re has launched a two-part Kilimanjaro III catastrophe bond seeking to raise at least $530 million of collateralised retrocession for North American natural catastrophe risks. The transaction covers named storms and earthquakes affecting the US, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, Washington DC and Canada. The deal comprises Series 2026-1 and Series 2026-2, each divided into four tranches offering both annual aggregate and per-occurrence protection. Coverage periods span three and four years respectively, with expected loss assumptions ranging from 4.35% to 7.38% and initial spreads between 8% and 12.75%. The issuance will replace $330 million of cover that matured in April and could lift Everest's outstanding catastrophe bond protection above $1.7 billion. The company completed a $1 billion retrocession deal through Kilimanjaro Re II a year ago.
Everest Group will go ex-dividend in four days, paying $2.00 per share on 26 June to shareholders on record by 12 June. The company distributed $8.00 per share over the past 12 months, yielding approximately 2.4% at the current share price of $334.41. The dividend appears sustainable, with Everest Group paying out just 16% of its profit after tax, leaving significant room for maintaining payments during adverse conditions. The company has grown earnings rapidly at 32% annually over the past five years. Over the past decade, Everest Group has increased its dividend by approximately 7.7% per year on average, demonstrating commitment to shareholder returns whilst growing earnings.
Everest Group has appointed Lisa Davis as Head of North America, Wholesale & Specialty. She will oversee underwriting strategy, distribution and portfolio management across the region, reporting to Jason Keen, EVP and CEO of Global Wholesale & Specialty. Davis brings over 35 years of experience in specialty insurance, most recently leading the expansion of Canopius' US business. She previously served as President and Chief Operating Officer for North America at Sompo America and held leadership positions at Zurich North America and St. Paul Companies. Everest is a global underwriting leader providing reinsurance and specialty insurance solutions. Its common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange and is a component of the S&P 500 index.
Everest Group shares rose 3.7% after the global reinsurance company reported first-quarter 2026 earnings that significantly beat profit expectations despite missing revenue targets. The company posted adjusted earnings of $16.08 per share, surpassing Wall Street's estimate of $13.98 and more than doubling the $6.45 reported a year earlier. The strong performance was driven by improved underwriting results, with a combined ratio of 91.2%, indicating profitability. However, total revenue of $4.07 billion and net premiums earned of $3.57 billion both declined year-over-year and fell short of analyst expectations. Investors focused on the substantial earnings outperformance, showing confidence in the company's operational efficiency. Shares closed at $356.76, up 6.7% year-to-date.
