NORTHBROOK, Ill., Feb. 4, 2026 - The Allstate Corporation (NYSE: ALL) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025.
“Allstate had a terrific year by better serving customers and making protection more affordable,” said Tom Wilson, who leads The Allstate Corporation. “We proactively reduced premiums for 7.8 million auto and homeowners insurance customers by an average of 17% through tailored coverage reviews to offset cost inflation. We also improved 69 million customer interactions and provided customers with nearly $38 billion in support and financial resources when the unexpected happened in 2025.”
“Total policies in force increased to 210.9 million in the fourth quarter, up 3.0% from the prior year, driven by broad distribution and affordable, simple, connected products. Revenues increased to $17.3 billion in the fourth quarter and $67.7 billion for the full year. Full-year net income was $10.2 billion and adjusted net income* was $9.3 billion. Reflecting this success, the common dividend will increase to $1.08 per share to be paid in the second quarter and a $4.0 billion share repurchase program will be initiated when the existing $1.5 billion program is completed,” concluded Wilson.

- The recorded auto insurance combined ratio of 80.8 in the fourth quarter of 2025 was a 12.7 point improvement from the prior year quarter, reflecting higher average earned premiums, moderating loss costs and the benefit of non-catastrophe reserve releases.

- The underlying auto insurance combined ratio* of 87.6 in the fourth quarter of 2025 was a 5.4 point improvement from the prior year quarter, as growth in average earned premiums exceeded improving underlying loss and expense trends per policy.

- Auto insurance policies in force grew by 2.3% with a 22.8% increase in new business reflecting expanded distribution, increased marketing, new products and sophisticated rating plans. Active brand auto insurance policies grew by 3.3%, which was partially offset by decreases in legacy Esurance and Encompass policies.

- Market-based investment income was $804 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $77 million, or 10.6%, compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting growth in the asset balances to $73.4 billion in the market-based portfolio.
- Performance-based investment income totaled $146 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $21 million compared to the prior year quarter due to lower private equity and real estate returns.

- Net gains on investments and derivatives were $73 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to losses of $201 million in the prior year quarter. Fourth quarter results were driven by fixed income sales and higher valuation on equity investments.
- Unrealized net capital gains totaled $382 million (pre-tax), a $70 million decrease to the prior quarter as previously unrealized gains were recognized through sales of fixed income securities during the quarter.
- Total return on the investment portfolio was 1.1% for the fourth quarter and 5.8% for the full year 2025.
- Macroeconomic impacts are regularly monitored through our integrated Enterprise Risk and Return Management framework. In the fourth quarter of 2025, growth exposure increased through a higher allocation to public equity securities.
Proactive Capital Management
“Fourth‑quarter operating results generated an attractive adjusted net income return on equity and additional deployable capital,” said John Dugenske, Interim Chief Financial Officer and President, Investments and Corporate Strategy. “Total estimated statutory surplus increased to $23.0 billion, and the holding company ended the year with $7.5 billion of assets. Over $2.2 billion was returned to shareholders in 2025, through a combination of share repurchases and common shareholder dividends. The common shareholder dividend will increase to $1.08, payable on April 1, 2026, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 2, 2026. In addition, a $4.0 billion share repurchase program, over 24 months, will commence once the existing $1.5 billion program has been fully executed,” concluded Dugenske.

- Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives
- Pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses
- Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles
- Gain or loss on disposition
- Adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items, when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, or (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years
- Related income tax expense or benefit of these items
Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to adjusted net income.
We use adjusted net income as an important measure to evaluate our results of operations. We believe that the measure provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company’s ongoing performance because it reveals trends in our insurance and financial services business that may be obscured by the net effect of net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses, amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles, gain or loss on disposition and adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items and the related tax expense or benefit of these items. Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, and pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Gain or loss on disposition is excluded because it is non-recurring in nature and the amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles is excluded because it relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying business results or trends. Non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of our business or economic trends. Accordingly, adjusted net income excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period and highlights the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability of our business. A byproduct of excluding these items to determine adjusted net income is the transparency and understanding of their significance to net income variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. Adjusted net income is used by management along with the other components of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders to assess our performance. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to evaluate net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, adjusted net income and their components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing and evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income results in their evaluation of our and our industry’s financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the Company and management’s performance. We note that the price to earnings multiple commonly used by insurance investors as a forward-looking valuation technique uses adjusted net income as the denominator. Adjusted net income should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
The following tables reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss). Taxes on adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss) generally use a 21% effective tax rate.

Adjusted net income (loss) return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity is a ratio that uses a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by dividing the rolling 12-month adjusted net income by the average of Allstate common shareholders’ equity at the beginning and at the end of the 12-months, after excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses. Return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We use adjusted net income as the numerator for the same reasons we use adjusted net income, as discussed previously. We use average Allstate common shareholders’ equity excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses for the denominator as a representation of common shareholders’ equity primarily applicable to Allstate's earned and realized business operations because it eliminates the effect of items that are unrealized and vary significantly between periods due to external economic developments such as capital market conditions like changes in interest rates, the amount and timing of which are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. We use it to supplement our evaluation of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity because it excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and that it provides a valuable tool for investors when considered along with return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity because it eliminates the after-tax effects of realized and unrealized net capital gains and losses that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and that are driven by economic developments, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by management. In addition, it eliminates non-recurring items that are not indicative of our ongoing business or economic trends. A byproduct of excluding the items noted above to determine adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity from return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity is the transparency and understanding of their significance to return on common shareholders’ equity variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to have adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity and return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity when evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income return on common shareholders’ equity results in their evaluation of our and our industry’s financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the company and management’s utilization of capital. We also provide it to facilitate a comparison to our long-term adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity goal. Adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity should not be considered a substitute for return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

Combined ratio excluding the effect of catastrophes, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles (“underlying combined ratio”) is a non-GAAP ratio, which is computed as the difference between four GAAP operating ratios: the combined ratio, the effect of catastrophes on the combined ratio, the effect of prior year non-catastrophe reserve reestimates on the combined ratio, and the effect of amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles on the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors, and it is used by management to reveal the trends in our Property-Liability business that may be obscured by catastrophe losses, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles. Catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year reserve reestimates are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves, which could increase or decrease current year net income. Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying insurance business results or trends. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our underwriting performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of our business.
The following tables reconcile the respective combined ratio to the underlying combined ratio. Underwriting margin is calculated as 100% minus the combined ratio.
