The Hartford opened 2026 with core earnings of $866 million, or $3.09 per diluted share, and a trailing 12-month core earnings ROE of 20.3%. Business Insurance grew written premium 6% at an 89.2% underlying combined ratio, led by small business at 8% growth and an 89.4% underlying combined ratio, while Personal Insurance premium fell 6% on a 10% auto decline as competitors pushed rate decreases, even as its underlying combined ratio improved 4.7 points to 85%. Employee Benefits delivered a 6.9% core earnings margin with sales up 53%, helped by two new paid family and medical leave state programs coming online. Catastrophe losses of $230 million ran roughly $30 million above internal expectations, driven by winter storm freeze damage concentrated in small business, and management added $70 million to general liability reserves for 1970s and 1980s sexual abuse and molestation exposures. The Hartford gives no formal financial guidance; management reaffirmed its expense targets through 2027 and said it expects to sustain the quarter's $450 million pace of share repurchases in the second quarter.
