Fort Lauderdale, Fla., April 24, 2025 – Universal Insurance Holdings (NYSE: UVE) (“Universal” or the “Company”) reported first quarter 2025 results.

“We continue to see signs that the 2022 Florida legislative reforms are working, providing much needed stability to the property insurance market, which ultimately benefits policyholders with increased certainty and choice,” said Stephen J. Donaghy, Chief Executive Officer. “In the quarter, we experienced lower weather losses, benefiting the loss and LAE ratio.”

“On a separate note, I'm pleased to announce the completion of our 2025-2026 reinsurance renewal for our insurance entities. Our program was fully supported and secured well before the June 1st inception date, something we have consistently achieved over the last few renewal cycles. We’ve also secured $352 million of additional multi-year coverage, taking us through the 2026-2027 hurricane season. The program costs and coverage were consistent with our expectations, and we'll provide specific details at the end of May, as we typically do. The solid execution of our reinsurance strategy is a testament to the strength and consistency of our long-term reinsurance partnerships, some of which span two decades.”

1 Reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures are provided in the attached tables. Adjusted net income (loss) available to common stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per common share and core revenue exclude net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Adjusted operating income (loss) excludes the items above and interest and amortization of debt issuance costs. Adjusted book value per share excludes accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes. Adjusted ROCE is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted net income (loss) available to common stockholders by average adjusted book value per share, with the denominator further excluding current period after-tax net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments.

Net Income and Adjusted Net Income

Net income available to common stockholders was $41.4 million, up from $33.7 million in the prior year quarter, and adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $41.4 million, up from $31.4 million in the prior year quarter. The higher adjusted net income available to common stockholders mostly stems from higher underwriting and net investment income and higher commission revenue.

Revenues

Revenue was $394.9 million, up 7.3% from the prior year quarter and core revenue was $394.9 million, up 8.2% from the prior year quarter. The increase in core revenue primarily stems from higher net premiums earned, net investment income and commission revenue.

Direct premiums written were $467.1 million, up 4.7% from the prior year quarter. The increase stems from 34.7% growth in other states, partly offset by a 3.0% decrease in Florida. Overall growth mostly reflects higher policies in force, higher rates and inflation adjustments.

Direct premiums earned were $513.3 million, up 6.5% from the prior year quarter. The increase stems from direct premiums written growth over the past twelve months.

The ceded premium ratio remained unchanged from the prior year quarter at 30.7%.

Net premiums earned were $355.7 million, up 6.5% from the prior year quarter. The increase is primarily attributable to higher direct premiums earned, as described above.

Net investment income was $16.1 million, up from $13.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase stems from higher fixed income reinvestment yields and higher invested assets.

Commissions, policy fees and other revenue were $23.1 million, up 32.8% from the prior year quarter. The increase primarily reflects higher reinsurance brokerage commissions stemming from replacement of the RAP layer with private market coverage and replacement of the catastrophe bond with traditional reinsurance coverage in the 2024-2025 program.

Margins

The operating income margin was 14.5%, compared to an operating income margin of 13.3% in the prior year quarter. The adjusted operating income margin was 14.5%, compared to an adjusted operating income margin of 12.6% in the prior year quarter. The higher adjusted operating income margin primarily reflects a lower net combined ratio and higher net investment income and commission revenue.

The net loss ratio was 70.5%, down 1.4 points compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease primarily reflects lower weather losses in the current year quarter.

The net expense ratio was 24.5%, up 0.9 points from 23.6% in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by higher policy acquisition costs associated with growth outside Florida and higher other operating costs.

The net combined ratio was 95.0%, down 0.5 points compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease reflects a lower net loss ratio, partly offset by a higher net expense ratio, as described above.

Capital Deployment

On April 14, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of 16 cents per share of common stock, payable on May 16, 2025, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 9, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including core revenue, adjusted net income available to common stockholders and diluted adjusted earnings (loss) per common share, which exclude the impact of net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments. Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss) margin exclude the impact of net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments and interest and amortization of debt issuance costs. Adjusted common stockholders’ equity and adjusted book value per share exclude accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), net of taxes. Adjusted return on common equity excludes after-tax net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments from the numerator and AOCI, net of taxes, and current period after-tax net realized gains (losses) on investments and net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments from the denominator. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance that excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). UVE management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are meaningful, as they allow investors to evaluate underlying revenue and profitability trends and enhance comparability across periods. When considered together with the GAAP financial measures, management believes these metrics provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. UVE management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze UVE’s business trends and to understand UVE’s

operational performance. UVE’s management utilizes these non-GAAP financial measures as guides in long-term planning. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information regarding our key performance indicators, please refer to the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Key Performance Indicators” in our forthcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “will,” “plan,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.

Future results could differ materially from those described, and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
