Lancashire Holdings misses 1H26 estimates on reserve releases By Investing.com
Lancashire Holdings reported 1H26 earnings 14% below market expectations, citing weaker underwriting performance and reserve top-ups tied to the 2024 Baltimore Bridge collapse. Its undiscounted combined ratio was 90.8% and discounted 80.7%, both missing estimates. Gross premium written was $1.32B, profit after tax $142M, and EPS 56 cents. Dividend was 7.5 cents; guidance for high-teens ROE maintained.
