1.b. Last Insights on GBLI

Global Indemnity Group, LLC faced challenges in recent months, despite a 54% growth in current accident year underwriting income and 19% increase in operating income. The company's decision to transfer its listing from the New York Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq Global Select Market may have caused short-term uncertainty. Additionally, increasing competition in the insurance market, as seen with Penn-America Underwriters' launch of a reinsurance MGA and acquisition of Sayata, an AI-enabled digital distribution marketplace, may impact Global Indemnity's market share.

Publication Date: Nov -17

📋 Highlights
  • Underwriting Profit Improvement: Combined ratio of 90.4% generated $10.2M underwriting profit, down from 93.5% in 2024.
  • Investment Income Growth: Net investment income rose 9% to $17.9M year-over-year, driven by short-duration portfolio performance.
  • Premium Expansion: Gross premium grew 13% YoY, led by Vacant Express, Collectibles, and Wholesale Commercial lines.
  • Shareholder Value Increase: Book value per share rose to $48.88 (+1.0%) with 1.8% return to shareholders in Q3 2025.
  • Capital Allocation Strategy: $273M discretionary capital deployed into corporates/MBS investments, no buyback program initiated.

Segment Performance

The company's growth was driven by solid performance in Vacant Express, Collectibles, Wholesale Commercial, and Assumed Reinsurance. Premium rate changes on the direct book are in the mid-single digits, tracking close to current expectations for loss trends. However, competition is increasing, particularly in new product lines, which may impact future growth.

Investment Income and Portfolio

The short-duration investment portfolio delivered net investment income of $17.9 million, a 9% increase from the prior year period. The company has invested $200 million in corporates and mortgage-backed securities this year and plans to restructure its short-term investment portfolio. The current equity portfolio represents about 2% of the total investment portfolio.

Valuation and Outlook

With a Price-to-Book Ratio (P/B) of 0.56, the company's valuation appears reasonable. The Board has decided against a buyback program, opting to deploy capital into growth opportunities instead. The company expects premium growth of 10% for the full year and anticipates improved underwriting performance in Q4 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 9.0%. The investment portfolio remains well-positioned to invest in longer-duration maturities at higher yields, which should support future investment income growth.
