12-Month Industry Outlook (no change since Q2-2025)

We continue to expect constructive conditions across all our markets:

Story Continues

In Personal lines in Canada, we expect high-single-digit to low-double-digit industry premium growth; and In Commercial and Specialty lines across all geographies, we expect mid-single-digit industry premium growth.

Q3-2025 Consolidated Performance

Operating DPW growth increased to 6%, driven by a 3-point sequential improvement in Commercial lines growth, as well as continued double-digit growth in Personal lines. Combined ratio was strong at 89.8%, a 14-point improvement from last year, reflecting solid underlying performance across all geographies and lower year-over-year catastrophe activity. Operating net investment income increased 2% from last year to $402 million, driven by higher assets. Favourable foreign currency movements were offset by a decrease in floating rates. Distribution income increased 11% to $147 million, driven by higher variable commissions, as well as contributions from acquisitions. Net operating income per share was strong at $4.46 (EPS of $4.73), a $3.45 increase from last year, driven by both premium growth and improving margins, including lower catastrophes, as well as contributions from investment and distribution income. Operating ROE increased 4 points from last year to 19.6% (ROE of 17.3%), driven by sustained margins combined with lower-than-expected catastrophe losses over the last 12 months.

Canada

The Canadian business is in a strong position, outperforming the industry on both DPW growth and combined ratio in H1-2025. Personal auto operating DPW increased by 11%, including unit growth of 3%. The combined ratio of 91.5% reflected strong underlying performance in the quarter, driven by the benefits of our pricing and risk selection. Personal property operating DPW grew by 10%, including 2%-unit growth. The combined ratio was solid at 92.4%, despite elevated CAT losses (16 points), reflecting our underwriting discipline. Commercial lines operating DPW growth was 3%, improving sequentially as growth initiatives begin to gain traction. The combined ratio was strong at 82.8%, reflecting the benefits of our profitability actions and favourable prior year development in line with expectations.

UK&I

Operating DPW decreased 5%, due to remediation actions in the DLG portfolio and strategic exits. The combined ratio of 95.5% reflected healthy underlying performance and included more than 3 points of higher-than-expected CAT losses.

US

Operating DPW growth improved significantly to 8%, driven by continued momentum in both new business and retention. The combined ratio of 83.6% improved 4 points year-over-year, reflecting our strong underlying performance.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended the quarter in a strong financial position and with solid regulatory capital ratios in all jurisdictions. Total capital margin increased from last quarter to $3.3 billion, driven by strong operating earnings.

IFC's book value per share (BVPS) of $103.16 as at September 30, 2025 increased 14% year-over-year, primarily due to strong earnings over the last 12 months. BVPS grew by 5% during the quarter, driven by strong operating performance and favourable market movements.
