HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Hartford (NYSE: HIG) today announced financial results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023.

“The Hartford continues to deliver strong financial performance with a 12-month core earnings ROE of 14.9 percent," said The Hartford's Chairman and CEO Christopher Swift. "Results were driven by continued momentum and exceptional performance in our Commercial Lines and Group Benefits businesses, representing over 85 percent of earned premium, and a strong contribution from investments.”

The Hartford's Chief Financial Officer Beth Costello said, “Commercial Lines had an outstanding quarter with an underlying combined ratio of 87.8. Personal Lines achieved sustained double-digit written pricing increases with acceleration in auto to 19.7 percent in the quarter. Group Benefits continues to deliver excellent results driven by 8 percent growth in fully insured ongoing premiums and a core earnings margin of 9.8 percent. Our investment performance remains strong benefiting from attractive new money yields. We announced an 11 percent increase in the common dividend and, in the third quarter, returned $481 million to shareholders.”

Swift continued, “We continue to expand our strong competitive position, successfully executing on our priorities and delivering superior returns for our shareholders. Looking ahead there is much to be bullish about at The Hartford. Building on our results over the last nine months, I am confident in our ability to consistently deliver core earnings ROEs in the 14 to 15 percent range."

Third quarter 2023 net income available to common stockholders of $645 million, or $2.09 per diluted share, improved compared with $334 million in third quarter 2022, primarily due to a higher P&C underwriting gain, an increase in net investment income, lower net realized losses, and higher Group Benefits results, with improvements in both life and disability.

Third quarter 2023 core earnings of $708 million, or $2.29 per diluted share, compared with $472 million of core earnings in third quarter 2022. Contributing to the results were:

• An increase in earnings generated by 8% growth in P&C earned premium and 8% growth in Group Benefits fully insured ongoing premium.
• P&C current accident year (CAY) catastrophe (CAT) losses of $184 million, before tax, in third quarter 2023, compared with CAY CAT losses of $293 million in third quarter 2022.
• Commercial Lines loss and loss adjustment expense ratio of 58.9 improved 3.7 points compared with 62.6 in third quarter 2022, including 2.7 points of lower CATs. Underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio* improved 0.9 points, to 56.6 in third quarter 2023 from 57.5 in third quarter 2022, primarily driven by lower net non-CAT property losses.
• Personal Lines loss and loss adjustment expense ratio of 83.7 compared with 82.5 in third quarter 2022, including 6.4 points of lower CATs and a change from favorable prior accident year development (PYD) of 1.5 in third quarter 2022 to unfavorable PYD of 0.1 in third quarter 2023. Underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio of 74.7 in third quarter 2023 compared with 68.8 in third quarter 2022, with the increase largely due to higher severity in auto liability and physical damage, partially offset by double-digit earned pricing increases benefiting both auto and homeowners.
• Group Benefits loss ratio of 70.2% improved 2.6 points compared with 72.8% primarily due to improved mortality experience and favorable long-term disability recoveries.
• The expense ratios improved across P&C and Group Benefits from third quarter 2022, driven by the impact of higher earned premium, lower incentive compensation, lower marketing spend in Personal Lines and incremental savings from the Hartford Next operational transformation and cost reduction program.
• Net investment income of $597 million, before tax, compared with $487 million in third quarter 2022, driven by higher yields on the fixed income portfolio.

Sept. 30, 2023, book value per diluted share of $43.50 increased 4.4%, from $41.67 at Dec. 31, 2022, principally due to net income in excess of stockholder dividends through Sept. 30, 2023, partially offset by the effect of share repurchases on diluted shares outstanding and greater net unrealized losses on investments within AOCI driven by an increase in interest rates.

Book value per diluted share (excluding AOCI) of $57.12 as of Sept. 30, 2023, increased 6.4%, from $53.66 at Dec. 31, 2022, as the impact from net income in excess of stockholder dividends through Sept. 30, 2023 was partially offset by the dilutive effect of share repurchases.

Net income available to common stockholders' ROE (net income ROE) for the 12-month period ending Sept. 30, 2023, was 17.7%, an increase of 4.9 points from third quarter 2022, primarily due to an increase in 12-month trailing net income available to common stockholders, and an increase in average net unrealized losses on investments in AOCI.

Core earnings ROE for the 12-month period ending Sept. 30, 2023, was 14.9%, an increase of 0.6 points from third quarter 2022 due to higher trailing 12-month core earnings.

Third quarter 2023 net income of $519 million compared with net income of $286 million in third quarter 2022, principally due to a higher underwriting gain driven by, lower CAY CAT losses, the impact of earned premium growth, and a lower underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio, as well as higher net investment income, and lower net realized losses.

Commercial Lines core earnings of $542 million in third quarter 2023 compared with $363 million in third quarter 2022. Contributing to the results were:

• CAY CAT losses of $115 million, before tax, in third quarter 2023, primarily from tornado, wind and hail events across several regions of the United States, down from CAY CAT losses of $179 million in third quarter 2022, which included $133 million from Hurricane Ian.
• Net favorable PYD within core earnings of $46 million, before tax, in third quarter 2023, compared with $42 million of favorable PYD within core earnings in third quarter 2022.

• An underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio of 56.6, in third quarter 2023 compared with 57.5 in third quarter 2022, with the improvement principally due to lower net non-CAT property losses driven by Middle & Large Commercial.
• 9% growth in earned premium.
• Net investment income of $395 million, before tax, compared with $315 million in third quarter 2022, primarily driven by reinvesting at higher rates and a higher yield on variable rate securities, as well as slightly higher income earned on limited partnerships and other alternative investments (LPs).

Combined ratio of 90.2 in third quarter 2023, improved 4.1 points compared with 94.3 in third quarter 2022, primarily due to 2.7 points of lower CAY CAT losses, and a 1.5 point decrease in the underlying combined ratio.

• Small Commercial combined ratio of 87.7 compared with 89.3 in third quarter 2022, including 2.1 points of lower CAY CATs and 0.8 points of more favorable PYD. Underlying combined ratio of 89.7 compared with 88.5 in third quarter 2022, primarily due to higher non-CAT property losses.
• Middle & Large Commercial combined ratio of 94.5 compared with 100.7 in third quarter 2022, including 2.1 points of lower CAY CATs and a 1.4 point increase in unfavorable PYD. Underlying combined ratio of 88.1, an improvement of 5.6 points from 93.7 in third quarter 2022, due to lower non-CAT property losses and a lower expense ratio.
• Global Specialty combined ratio of 88.9 improved from 94.2 in third quarter 2022, benefiting from 4.7 points of lower CAY CATs and a 0.3 point decrease in unfavorable PYD. The underlying combined ratio of 84.3 improved 0.2 points from third quarter 2022, primarily due to lower loss ratios in global reinsurance and international lines, partially offset by higher loss ratios in U.S. financial lines, as well as higher policyholder dividends and a slightly higher expense ratio.
• The Commercial Lines expense ratio of 30.7 improved 0.8 points from third quarter 2022, driven by the impact of higher earned premium, lower incentive compensation and incremental savings from the Hartford Next program, partially offset by investments in technology and higher underwriting staffing costs.

Third quarter 2023 written premiums of $3.0 billion were up 8% from third quarter 2022, with increases across the segment, including continued expansion in property lines, growth in new business within Small Commercial and Global Specialty, and the effect of renewal written price increases.

Underlying combined ratio of 99.0 compared with 95.9 in third quarter 2022, primarily due to an increase in the underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio in auto, partially offset by a 2.9 point improvement in the expense ratio.

• Auto combined ratio of 110.8 compared with 113.2 in third quarter 2022.

Third quarter 2023 consolidated net investment income of $597 million compared with $487 million in third quarter 2022, largely driven by the impact of reinvesting at higher rates and a higher yield on variable rate securities.

Third quarter 2023 included $72 million, before tax, of LP income as compared to $62 million in third quarter 2022. Annualized LP yield, before tax, of 6.3% was flat to third quarter 2022.

Net realized losses of $90 million, before tax, in third quarter 2023 improved by $76 million from losses of $166 million, before tax, in third quarter 2022 primarily due to greater net losses on equity securities and sales of fixed maturities in the 2022 period compared to the 2023 period, partially offset by greater losses on interest rate derivatives in the 2023 period compared to 2022.

Total invested assets of $53.3 billion increased from Dec. 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in fixed maturities, available-for-sale, at fair value and LPs, partially offset by a decrease in equity securities, at fair value and short-term investments.

DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Hartford uses non-GAAP financial measures in this press release to assist investors in analyzing the company's operating performance for the periods presented herein. Because The Hartford's calculation of these measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies, investors should be careful when comparing The Hartford's non-GAAP financial measures to those of other companies. Definitions and calculations of other financial measures used in this press release can be found below and in The Hartford's Investor Financial Supplement for third quarter 2023, which is available on The Hartford's website, https://ir.thehartford.com.

Annualized investment yield, excluding limited partnerships and other alternative investments - This non-GAAP measure is calculated as (a) the annualized net investment income, on a Consolidated, P&C or Group Benefits level, excluding limited partnerships and other alternative investments, divided by (b) the monthly average invested assets at amortized cost, as applicable, excluding derivatives book value and limited partnerships and other alternative investments. The Company believes that annualized investment yield, excluding limited partnerships and other alternative investments, provides investors with an important measure of the trend in investment earnings because it excludes the impact of the volatility in returns related to limited partnerships and other alternative investments. Annualized investment yield is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. A reconciliation of the annualized investment yield to annualized investment yield excluding limited partnerships and other alternatives investments for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is provided in the table below.

	Three Months Ended
	Sept 30 2023			Sept 30 2022
	Consolidated
Annualized investment yield	4.2%			3.5%
Adjustment for income from limited partnerships and other alternative investments	(0.1)%			(0.2)%
Annualized investment yield excluding limited partnerships and other alternative investments	4.1%			3.3%

Book value per diluted share (excluding AOCI) - This is a non-GAAP per share measure that is calculated by dividing (a) common stockholders' equity, excluding AOCI, after tax, by (b) common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares. The Company provides this measure to enable investors to analyze the amount of the Company's net worth that is primarily attributable to the Company's business operations. The Company believes that excluding AOCI from the numerator is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates. Book value per diluted share is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. A reconciliation of book value per diluted share to book value per diluted share (excluding AOCI) is provided in the table below.

	As of
	Sept 30 2023			Dec 31 2022			Change
Book value per diluted share	$43.50			$41.67			4%
Per diluted share impact of AOCI	$13.62			$11.99			14%
Book value per diluted share (excluding AOCI)	$57.12			$53.66			6%

	As of
	Sept 30 2023			Sept 30 2022			Change
Book value per diluted share	$43.50			$39.13			11%
Per diluted share impact of AOCI	$13.62			$13.52			1%
Book value per diluted share (excluding AOCI)	$57.12			$52.65			8%

Core earnings - The Hartford uses the non-GAAP measure core earnings as an important measure of the Company’s operating performance. The Hartford believes that core earnings provides investors with a valuable measure of the performance of the Company’s ongoing businesses because it reveals trends in our insurance and financial services businesses that may be obscured by including the net effect of certain items. Therefore, the following items are excluded from core earnings:

• Certain realized gains and losses - Generally realized gains and losses are primarily driven by investment decisions and external economic developments, the nature and timing of which are unrelated to the insurance and underwriting aspects of our business. Accordingly, core earnings excludes the effect of all realized gains and losses that tend to be highly variable from period to period based on capital market conditions. The Hartford believes, however, that some realized gains and losses are integrally related to our insurance operations, so core earnings includes net realized gains and losses such as net periodic settlements on credit derivatives. These net realized gains and losses are directly related to an offsetting item included in the income statement such as net investment income.
• Restructuring and other costs - Costs incurred as part of a restructuring plan are not a recurring operating expense of the business.
• Loss on extinguishment of debt - Largely consisting of make-whole payments or tender premiums upon paying debt off before maturity, these losses are not a recurring operating expense of the business.
• Gains and losses on reinsurance transactions - Gains or losses on reinsurance, such as those entered into upon sale of a business or to reinsure loss reserves, are not a recurring operating expense of the business.
• Integration and other non-recurring M&A costs - These costs, including transaction costs incurred in connection with an acquired business, are incurred over a short period of time and do not represent an ongoing operating expense of the business.
• Change in loss reserves upon acquisition of a business - These changes in loss reserves are excluded from core earnings because such changes could obscure the ability to compare results in periods after the acquisition to results of periods prior to the acquisition.
• Deferred gain resulting from retroactive reinsurance and subsequent changes in the deferred gain - Retroactive reinsurance agreements economically transfer risk to the reinsurers and excluding the deferred gain on retroactive reinsurance and related amortization of the deferred gain from core earnings provides greater insight into the economics of the business.
• Change in valuation allowance on deferred taxes related to non-core components of before tax income - These changes in valuation allowances are excluded from core earnings because they relate to non-core components of before tax income, such as tax attributes like capital loss carryforwards.
• Results of discontinued operations - These results are excluded from core earnings for businesses sold or held for sale because such results could obscure the ability to compare period over period results for our ongoing businesses.

In addition to the above components of net income available to common stockholders that are excluded from core earnings, preferred stock dividends declared, which are excluded from net income, are included in the determination of core earnings. Preferred stock dividends are a cost of financing more akin to interest expense on debt and are expected to be a recurring expense as long as the preferred stock is outstanding.

Net income (loss) and net income (loss) available to common stockholders are the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures to core earnings. Core earnings should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss) or net income (loss) available to common stockholders and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company’s business. Therefore, The Hartford believes that it is useful for investors to evaluate net income (loss), net income (loss) available to common stockholders, and core earnings when reviewing the Company’s performance.

A reconciliation of net income (loss) to core earnings for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is included in this press release. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to core earnings for individual reporting segments can be found in this press release under the heading "The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. Consolidating Income Statements" and in The Hartford's Investor Financial Supplement for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Core earnings margin - The Hartford uses the non-GAAP measure core earnings margin to evaluate, and believes it is an important measure of, the Group Benefits segment's operating performance. Core earnings margin is calculated by dividing core earnings by revenues, excluding buyouts and realized gains (losses). Net income margin, calculated by dividing net income by revenues, is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The Company believes that core earnings margin provides investors with a valuable measure of the performance of Group Benefits because it reveals trends in the business that may be obscured by the effect of buyouts and realized gains (losses) as well as other items excluded in the calculation of core earnings. Core earnings margin should not be considered as a substitute for net income margin and does not reflect the overall profitability of Group Benefits. Therefore, the Company believes it is important for investors to evaluate both core earnings margin and net income margin when reviewing performance. A reconciliation of net income margin to core earnings margin for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is set forth below.

	Three Months Ended
Margin	Sept 30 2023			Sept 30 2022			Change
Net income margin	8.5%			5.4%			3.1
Adjustments to reconcile net income margin to core earnings margin:
Net realized losses, before tax	1.5%			2.3%			(0.8)
Integration and other non-recurring M&A costs, before tax	0.1%			0.1%			—
Income tax benefit on items excluded from core earnings	(0.3)%			(0.6)%			0.3
Core earnings margin	9.8%			7.2%			2.6

Core earnings per diluted share - This non-GAAP per share measure is calculated using the non-GAAP financial measure core earnings rather than the GAAP measure net income. The Company believes that core earnings per diluted share provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company's operating performance for the same reasons applicable to its underlying measure, core earnings. Net income (loss) available to common stockholders per diluted common share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Core earnings per diluted share should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss) available to common stockholders per diluted common share and does not reflect the overall profitability of the Company's business. Therefore, the Company believes that it is useful for investors to evaluate net income (loss) available to common stockholders per diluted common share and core earnings per diluted share when reviewing the Company's performance. A reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders per diluted common share to core earnings per diluted share for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is provided in the table below.

Core Earnings Return on Equity - The Company provides different measures of the return on stockholders' equity (ROE). Core earnings ROE is calculated based on non-GAAP financial measures. Core earnings ROE is calculated by dividing (a) the non-GAAP measure core earnings for the prior four fiscal quarters by (b) the non-GAAP measure average common stockholders' equity, excluding AOCI. Net income ROE is the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. The Company excludes AOCI in the calculation of core earnings ROE to provide investors with a measure of how effectively the Company is investing the portion of the Company's net worth that is primarily attributable to the Company's business operations. The Company provides to investors return on equity measures based on its non-GAAP core earnings financial measure for the reasons set forth in the core earnings definition. A quantitative reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders ROE to core earnings ROE is not calculable on a forward-looking basis because it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast of realized gains and losses, which typically vary substantially from period to period.

A reconciliation of consolidated net income available to common stockholders ROE to consolidated core earnings ROE is set forth below.

Underlying combined ratio- This non-GAAP financial measure of underwriting results represents the combined ratio before catastrophes, prior accident year development and current accident year change in loss reserves upon acquisition of a business. Combined ratio is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The Company believes this ratio is an important measure of the trend in profitability since it removes the impact of volatile and unpredictable catastrophe losses and prior accident year loss and loss adjustment expense reserve development. The changes to loss reserves upon acquisition of a business are excluded from underlying combined ratio because such changes could obscure the ability to compare results in periods after the acquisition to results of periods prior to the acquisition as such trends are valuable to our investors' ability to assess the Company's financial performance. A reconciliation of the combined ratio to the underlying combined ratio for individual reporting segments can be found in this press release under the heading "Business Results" for Commercial Lines" and "Personal Lines". A reconciliation of the combined ratio to underlying combined ratio for lines of business within the Company's P&C reporting segments is set forth below.

Underwriting gain (loss) - The Hartford's management evaluates profitability of the Commercial and Personal Lines segments primarily on the basis of underwriting gain or loss. Underwriting gain (loss) is a before tax non-GAAP measure that represents earned premiums less incurred losses, loss adjustment expenses and underwriting expenses. Net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Underwriting gain (loss) is influenced significantly by earned premium growth and the adequacy of The Hartford's pricing. Underwriting profitability over time is also greatly influenced by The Hartford's underwriting discipline, as management strives to manage exposure to loss through favorable risk selection and diversification, effective management of claims, use of reinsurance and its ability to manage its expenses. The Hartford believes that underwriting gain (loss) provides investors with a valuable measure of profitability, before tax, derived from underwriting activities, which are managed separately from the Company's investing activities. A reconciliation of net income to underwriting gain (loss) for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is set forth below.

Underlying underwriting gain (loss) - This non-GAAP measure of underwriting profitability represents underwriting gain (loss) before current accident year catastrophes, PYD and current accident year change in loss reserves upon acquisition of a business. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). The Company believes underlying underwriting gain (loss) is important to understand the Company’s periodic earnings because the volatile and unpredictable nature (i.e., the timing and amount) of catastrophes and prior accident year reserve development could obscure underwriting trends. The changes to loss reserves upon acquisition of a business are also excluded from underlying underwriting gain (loss) because such changes could obscure the ability to compare results in periods after the acquisition to results of periods prior to the acquisition as such trends are valuable to our investors' ability to assess the Company's financial performance. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to underlying underwriting gain (loss) for individual reporting segments for the quarterly periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is set forth below.

Underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio - This non-GAAP financial measure of the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio for Commercial Lines and Personal Lines represents the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio before catastrophes and prior accident year development. The loss and loss adjustment expense ratio is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The underlying loss and loss adjustment expense ratio is an important measure of the trend in profitability since it removes the impact of volatile and unpredictable catastrophe losses and prior accident year reserve development.

Financial Strength, Credit and Counterparty Risks: risks to our business, financial position, prospects and results associated with negative rating actions or downgrades in the Company’s financial strength and credit ratings or negative rating actions or downgrades relating to our investments; capital requirements which are subject to many factors, including many that are outside the Company’s control, such as National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") risk based capital formulas, rating agency capital models, Funds at Lloyd's and Solvency Capital Requirement, which can in turn affect our credit and financial strength ratings, cost of capital, regulatory compliance and other aspects of our business and results; losses due to nonperformance or defaults by others, including credit risk with counterparties associated with investments, derivatives, premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverables and indemnifications provided by third parties in connection with previous dispositions; the potential for losses due to our reinsurers' unwillingness or inability to meet their obligations under reinsurance contracts and the availability, pricing and adequacy of reinsurance to protect the Company against losses; state and international regulatory limitations on the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends;

Risks Relating to Estimates, Assumptions and Valuations: risks associated with the use of analytical models in making decisions in key areas such as underwriting, pricing, capital management, reserving, investments, reinsurance and catastrophe risk management; the potential for differing interpretations of the methodologies, estimations and assumptions that underlie the Company’s fair value estimates for its investments and the evaluation of intent-to-sell impairments and allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities and mortgage loans; the potential for impairments of our goodwill;

Strategic and Operational Risks: the Company’s ability to maintain the availability of its systems and safeguard the security of its data in the event of a disaster, cyber or other information security incident or other unanticipated event; the potential for difficulties arising from outsourcing and similar third-party relationships; the risks, challenges and uncertainties associated with capital management plans, expense reduction initiatives and other actions; risks associated with acquisitions and divestitures, including the challenges of integrating acquired companies or businesses, which may result in our inability to achieve the anticipated benefits and synergies and may result in unintended consequences; difficulty in attracting and retaining talented and qualified personnel, including key employees, such as executives, managers and employees with strong technological, analytical and other specialized skills; the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property and defend against claims of infringement;
