AIG reports Q4 income up 51%, targets $1B+ buyback and AI-driven efficiency gains

American International Group reported fourth-quarter adjusted after-tax income rose 51% year-over-year, driven by strong underwriting performance. Full-year 2025 capital returns reached $6.80 billion through buybacks and dividends. The insurer outlined plans for low- to mid-teens net premium growth and at least $1 billion in share repurchases for 2026. Management set a target to push the expense ratio below 30% by 2027 using AI agents in underwriting and digital initiatives. AIG's narrative projects $31.3 billion revenue and $3.8 billion earnings by 2028, requiring 4.5% annual revenue growth. However, the company remains exposed to climate-related catastrophe losses, which could impact long-term performance despite the AI-driven efficiency measures.

AIG posts 51% Q4 income surge to $1.96/share, returns $6.8B to shareholders

American International Group (AIG) reported a 51% year-over-year increase in Q4 adjusted after-tax income to $1.96 per diluted share. For the full year 2025, the company generated $4 billion in adjusted after-tax income and $2.3 billion in underwriting income, marking a 22% increase over 2024. AIG returned $6.8 billion to shareholders in 2025 through $5.8 billion in share repurchases and $1 billion in dividends. Whilst international commercial new business grew strongly, North American retail property and personal net premiums contracted due to reduced market appetite and higher reinsurance costs. For 2026, AIG forecasts net premiums written growth in the low to mid-teens. The company targets reducing its expense ratio below 30% by 2027 through operational efficiency improvements, including AI implementation, and plans to continue share repurchases of at least $1 billion.
