Stock Track | United Fire Group (UFCS) Stock Plunges 5.17% Despite Strong Q3 Results

Stock Track11-07

United Fire Group Inc (NASDAQ:UFCS) reported solid financial results for the third quarter of 2024, with strong growth in net written premiums and improved underwriting performance. However, the company's stock experienced a 5.17% plummet on November 7th, despite the positive financial metrics.

The insurance provider reported a 23% increase in net written premiums to $305.6 million, led by growth in its core commercial and alternative distribution businesses. The GAAP combined ratio improved by 3.8 points to 98.2%, reflecting better core margins and lower catastrophe losses.

United Fire Group achieved the highest quarterly net income of $0.76 per diluted share and operating income in the past 10 quarters. This strong performance was driven by several factors, including strategic repositioning of the fixed income portfolio, which resulted in a 49% increase in net investment income to $24.4 million.
