Note 1 -- Nature of Operations

HCI Group, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (“HCI” or the “Company”), is primarily engaged in the property and casualty insurance business through two insurance companies, Homeowners Choice Property & Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (“HCPCI”) and TypTap Insurance Company (“TTIC”). The Company provides various homeowners’ property and casualty insurance products for properties located in the State of Florida, which is the Company's primary market, as well as in other states in the northeast and southeast regions of the United States (“U.S.”). A third insurance subsidiary, perRisk Insurance Company (“perRisk”), is domiciled in Arizona and has not yet commenced its surplus lines insurance business.

The Company's insurance operations are supported by other insurance-related subsidiaries within the consolidated group. Exzeo Group, Inc. (“Exzeo”), a publicly traded majority-owned subsidiary, provides turn-key insurance technology and operations solutions based on a proprietary platform of purpose-built software and data analytics applications that are specifically designed for the property and casualty insurance ecosystem. The Company utilizes Exzeo's internally developed software technologies to identify profitable underwriting opportunities, drive efficiency in claim processing and settlements, and streamline operations across our insurance operations and other insurance-related businesses.

The Company also provides attorney-in-fact (“AIF”) services for Condo Owners Reciprocal Exchange (“CORE”) and Tailrow Insurance Exchange (“Tailrow”), both of which represent reciprocal insurance exchanges owned by their policyholders. Although the Company does not have any equity interest in CORE and Tailrow, the Company is required to consolidate them as their primary beneficiary. In addition, the Company's commercial real estate subsidiary is primarily engaged in the business of developing and operating commercial properties for investment purposes or for internal use.

HCI Group, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida in 2006 and its common stock is currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “HCI.” Exzeo completed its initial public offering in November of 2025 and is currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “XZO.” As of March 31, 2026, HCI Group, Inc. owned approximately 82.5% of Exzeo’s outstanding shares of common stock, inclusive of its unvested restricted stock.

Note 2 -- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2026 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026 (the “2025 Annual

HCI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)

Report”). Unless otherwise noted, the Company’s accounting policies do not differ from those disclosed in the 2025 Annual Report.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and include the accounts of HCI Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Company evaluates its relationships or investments for consolidation pursuant to authoritative accounting guidance related to the consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIE”) under the Variable Interest Model prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). A VIE is consolidated when the Company has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Refer to Note 12 “Variable Interest Entities” for additional information. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company's estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or market conditions. The Company's estimates specific to losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance recoverable, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, and limited partnership investments involve the most significant judgments and estimates related to the consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 -- Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted

Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-05. In July 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-05 (“ASU 2025-05”) Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This update simplifies the estimation of current expected credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets related to revenue from contracts with customers by allowing all entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the current accounts receivable and current contract assets. ASU 2025-05 is effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operation.

Pending Adoption

Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-01 and 2024-03. In January 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-01 (“ASU 2025-01”) Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. This update clarifies the effective date of Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03 (“ASU 2024-03”) Income Statement–Reporting Comprehensive Income–Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which was issued by the FASB in November 2024. For public business entities, ASU 2024-03 enhances disclosures by requiring the disaggregation of certain expense captions presented within the income statement, such as employee compensation and intangible asset amortization. In addition, the total relevant expense caption on the income statement must be reconciled to the aggregate of the separately disclosed expense

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)

categories with the difference represented by an “other items” amount which is qualitatively described. ASU 2024-03 is effective for all public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating its impact.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-06. In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2025-06 (“ASU 2025-06”) Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This update enhances guidance on the capitalization of software development costs by eliminating project phase based criteria and clarifying the conditions signifying significant development uncertainty used by entities to evaluate when the probable-to-complete recognition threshold is met. ASU 2025-06 is effective for all entities for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating its impact.

Note 4 -- Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:


	March 31,		December 31,
	2026		2025
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,014,049	$	1,210,126
Restricted cash		3,757		3,748
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	1,017,806	$	1,213,874

The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held at major financial institutions. Certain account balances exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits of $250 per account. As a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts in excess of the insurance limits. The Company regularly monitors the financial stability of these financial institutions and believes that there is no exposure to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents.

Allowance for Credit Losses of Available-for-Sale Fixed-Maturity Securities

The Company regularly reviews its individual available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities for credit impairment. The Company considers various factors in determining whether a credit loss exists for each individual security, including:

•

the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings;

•

the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost;

•

general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors and other qualitative factors;

•

nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and

•

the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of costs.

There was no balance or activity in the allowance for credit losses of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Note 6 -- Fair Value Measurements

The Company records and discloses certain financial assets at their estimated fair values. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows:


Level 1	–	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2	–	Other inputs that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly such as quoted prices for identical assets that are not observable throughout the full term of the asset.
Level 3	–	Inputs that are unobservable.

Valuation Methodology

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash as well as money-market funds and certificates of deposit maturing within three months from the time of purchase. Their carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity and high liquidity of these funds.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash held by state authorities and the carrying value approximates fair value.

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise stated)

Available-for-Sale Fixed-Maturity and Equity Securities

Estimated fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities are determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Fair values are generally measured using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities or other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar securities. In those instances where observable inputs are not available, fair values are measured using unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the security and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value estimates derived from unobservable inputs are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rates and the estimated amounts and timing of future cash flows. The derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a current market exchange.

The estimated fair values for securities are determined by management, utilizing prices obtained from an independent pricing service and information provided by brokers, which are level 1 or level 2 inputs depending on the asset class. Management reviews the assumptions and methods utilized by the pricing service and then compares the relevant data and pricing to broker-provided data. The Company gains assurance of the overall reasonableness and consistent application of the assumptions and methodologies, and compliance with accounting standards for fair value determination through ongoing monitoring of the reported fair values.

Revolving Credit Facility

From time to time, the Company has an amount outstanding under a revolving credit facility. The interest rate is variable and is periodically adjusted based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a ten basis points adjustment plus a margin based on the debt-to-capital ratio. As a result, carrying value, when outstanding, approximates fair value.

Interest expense for long-term debt was $456 and $2,715 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Note 10 -- Reinsurance

Reinsurance obtained from other insurance companies

In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to reduce the loss that may arise from catastrophes or other events by reinsuring certain levels of risk in various areas of exposure with other insurance enterprises or reinsurers. The Company contracts with a number of reinsurers to secure its annual reinsurance coverage, which generally becomes effective June 1st of each year. The Company purchases reinsurance each year taking into consideration its overall insurance exposure, modeled probable maximum losses, risk tolerance and retention levels, mandatory reinsurance coverage provided by the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (a tax-exempt state trust fund), and overall reinsurance market conditions. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the applicable reinsurance contract or contracts. Premiums ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of gross premiums earned to arrive at net premiums earned. Prepaid reinsurance premiums represent the unexpired portion of premiums ceded to reinsurers.

The Company remains liable for claims payments in the event that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentrations of credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities or economic characteristics of the reinsurers to minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies.

Net premiums earned	$	222,151		$	200,748

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, total net amounts recoverable from reinsurers were $269,852 and $289,896, respectively. There were no ceded losses from catastrophic events or significant adjustment to ceded losses from prior periods during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 48 reinsurers participating in the Company’s reinsurance program. As of March 31 2026, approximately 67.8% of the reinsurance recoverable balance was receivable from six reinsurers, one of which was the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund. The allowance for credit losses related to reinsurance recoverable was not material to the consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of income for the periods presented.

Under contracts in effect prior to June 1, 2025, reinsurance costs could be adjusted by retrospective provisions under reinsurance contracts. There were no adjustments to premiums ceded related to retrospective provisions for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Reinsurance provided to other insurance companies

United Property & Casualty Insurance Company

The Company formerly provided quota share reinsurance to United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (“United”) on its policies in the northeast and southeast regions of the U.S. United was placed into receivership by the State of Florida due to its financial insolvency. As a result, the Company ceased providing quota share reinsurance on United policies, together with other administrative services in March 2023. The liabilities and obligations under this quota-share reinsurance agreement were not material as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Additionally, the balance of funds withheld for assumed business, which represent net amounts owed

to the Company related to the Company’s quota share reinsurance agreements with United, were not material as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Citizens Property Insurance Corporation

From time to time, the Company may participate in a “take-out program” through which the Company assumes insurance policies held by Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“Citizens”), a Florida state-supported insurer. The take-out program is a legislatively mandated program designed to reduce the state’s risk exposure by encouraging private companies to assume policies from Citizens.

The table below shows the number of policies and annualized gross premiums assumed from Citizens during the periods presented:


Three Months Ended March 31,	Policies Assumed		Annualized Gross Premiums
2026		—	$	—
2025		13,917		35,820
Total		13,917	$	35,820

Note 11 -- Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

The Company accrues for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) in the period in which the underlying loss event occurred. LAE are costs associated with the investigation, evaluation, adjustment, and settlement of insurance claims and can be either allocated, costs directly attributable to a specific claim, or unallocated, costs that cannot be directly attributed to a specific claim. Reserves for losses and LAE are determined by establishing liabilities in amounts estimated to cover incurred losses and LAE. Such reserves are determined based on the assessment of claims reported and the development of pending claims. These reserves are based on individual case estimates for the reported losses and LAE and estimates of such amounts that are incurred but not reported.

The estimates of unpaid losses and LAE are subject to trends in claim severity and frequency and are continually reviewed. As part of the process, the Company reviews historical data and considers various factors, including known and anticipated regulatory and legal developments, changes in social attitudes, inflation and economic conditions. As experience develops and other data becomes available, these estimates are revised, as required, resulting in increases or decreases to the existing unpaid losses and LAE. Adjustments are reflected in the results of operations in the period in which they are made and the liabilities may deviate substantially from prior estimates. Losses and LAE ceded to or recovered from reinsurers are recorded as a reduction to losses and LAE on the consolidated statements of income. Accordingly, losses and LAE in the consolidated statements of income are net of reinsurance.

(a) Net balance represents beginning-of-period liability for unpaid losses and LAE less beginning-of-period reinsurance recoverable for unpaid losses and LAE.

Losses and LAE increased from the three months ended March 31, 2025 to the three months ended March 31, 2026 primarily due to a higher volume of policies in force as well as weather-related events in the northeast during the three months ended March 31, 2026. There were no losses from catastrophic events during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Note 12 -- Variable Interest Entities

The Company includes two consolidated VIEs related to reciprocal insurance exchanges, CORE and Tailrow. The reciprocal insurance exchanges are owned by their policyholders, referred to as subscribers, who gain ownership by buying an insurance policy and making a surplus contribution. Each subscriber has rights in their respective reciprocal insurance exchange to (i) receive dividends or premium credits if the reciprocal insurance exchange generates a surplus, and (ii) elect members to the subscribers’ advisory committee. The subscribers’ advisory committee oversees the financial affairs of its respective reciprocal insurance exchange and appoints the AIF. Each subscribers’ advisory committee requires at least two-thirds of its members to be subscribers who are independent of the AIF.

Both CORE and Tailrow each received initial funding through the issuance of a subordinated surplus note to wholly-owned subsidiaries of HCI Group, Inc. as neither had any subscribers or sufficient surplus to fund their insurance operations at the time of formation. In addition, CORE and Tailrow each entered into an AIF agreement with Core Risk Managers, LLC (“CRM”) and Tailrow Risk Managers, LLC (“TRM”), respectively. Both CRM and TRM are wholly-owned subsidiaries of HCI Group, Inc. The AIF agreements, which were approved by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (“FLOIR”), can be terminated at any time by mutual agreement of both parties or with cause, if the FLOIR or a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a material breach of the agreement has occurred. Under the AIF agreements, CRM and TRM have the power of attorney to directly or indirectly conduct the daily operations of CORE and Tailrow, respectively, by underwriting insurance policies, collecting premiums, investing funds, and processing claims. As such, subscribers do not possess the power to directly manage the operations of CORE and Tailrow. The AIF agreements also permit CRM and TRM to contract with service providers including other HCI Group, Inc. subsidiaries to perform certain functions.

The AIF agreements, together with the subordinated surplus notes, result in both CORE and Tailrow to be consolidated VIEs. As CORE and Tailrow are owned by their underlying policyholders, their net assets and results of operations are included in noncontrolling interests.

CORE

CORE was formed and issued a $25,000 subordinated surplus note with an annual interest rate of 9% during 2023. CORE commenced business operations during 2024.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to CORE was $25,000. CORE’s assets are legally restricted for the purpose of fulfilling obligations specific to CORE and its creditors have no legal right to pursue additional sources of payment from the Company.

Tailrow

Tailrow was formed and issued a $25,000 subordinated surplus note with an annual interest rate of 9% during 2024. Tailrow commenced business operations during 2025.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss relating to Tailrow was $25,000. Tailrow’s assets are legally restricted for the purpose of fulfilling obligations specific to Tailrow and its creditors have no legal right to pursue additional sources of payment from the Company.

Note 13 -- Segment Information

The Company has five reportable segments: Insurance Operations, Exzeo, Reciprocal Exchange Operations, Real Estate, and Corporate and Other. Due to their economic characteristics, the Company’s property and casualty insurance and reinsurance operations, excluding the insurance operations under Reciprocal Exchange Operations, are grouped together into one reportable segment under Insurance Operations. The Exzeo segment represents Exzeo’s operations related to insurance technology and operations solutions for property and casualty insurance carriers. The Reciprocal Exchange Operations segment represents the insurance operations of consolidated reciprocal insurance exchanges that are owned by their policyholders. The Real Estate segment represents the operations of the Company’s commercial real estate group that is primarily engaged in the business of developing and operating commercial properties for investment purposes or for internal use. The Corporate and Other segment represents the activities of the holding companies and any other operations that do not meet the quantitative and qualitative thresholds for a reportable segment.

The Company’s segments are based on the manner in which the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”), evaluates performance and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources using various measures primarily through reviews of various operational performance packages, investor presentations, and the Company’s SEC filings, as well as through the approval of the Company’s annual budget and forecast. The Company’s reported segment profit measure is income (loss) before income taxes as this measure is most consistent with the amounts included in the consolidated statements of income. Intersegment transactions are not eliminated from segment results while intrasegment transactions are eliminated from segment results. The accounting policies of the Company’s reportable segments are the same as those of the Company, except as otherwise noted. The determination of segments may change over time due to changes in operational emphasis, revenue, and results of operations.

Note 14 -- Income Taxes

There were no significant changes in the Company’s valuation allowance on deferred income tax assets during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded income tax expense of $30,341 and $26,109, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 26.3% and 26.0%, respectively. Incorporated within each rate is the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0%, state taxes (net of federal benefits), and unfavorable non-deductible compensation expenses.

Note 15 -- Earnings Per Share

The Company applies the two-class method for computing and presenting earnings per share since the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards represent participating securities due to the right to share in dividends, if declared, equally with common stockholders. The two-class method allocates current period net income to common stock and participating securities based on (i) dividends declared and (ii) participation rights in the remaining undistributed income. For a majority-owned subsidiary, the Company’s proportionate share in that majority-owned subsidiary’s earnings per share is added to the computation of earnings per share on a consolidated basis.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to common stockholders using the two-class method by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all securities having a dilutive effect on income attributable to common stockholders, weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding, or both. The effect from potential dilutive securities included, but was not limited to: (i) incremental shares of common stock calculated using the if-converted method for convertible debt instruments; (ii) incremental shares of common stock calculated using the treasury stock method for warrants and share-based compensation awards; (iii) adjustments to a majority-owned subsidiary's earnings per share due to its potential dilutive securities; and (iv) the corresponding impact to income attributable to common stockholders associated with the preceding considerations. Net losses are not allocated to participating securities as the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses.

In March 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $80,000, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of the Company’s common stock through February 27, 2027 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Share Repurchase Program permits the Company to repurchase shares for cash periodically in open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, or by other means, including through the use of trading programs intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18 under that Act. The timing and total amount of any stock repurchases will be determined at management's discretion and depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices and other considerations. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase a specific number of shares of common stock, and may be canceled or suspended at any time without notice.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company repurchased 110,071 shares common stock for $17,498, excluding commissions and fees, under the Share Repurchase Program. All of the shares repurchased were treated as retirements and reduced the number of shares issued and outstanding. In addition, the Company recorded the excess of the purchase price over the par value per share as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. Commissions and fees on repurchases of common stock were not material during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company may repurchase up to $62,502, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.

Dividends

Stockholders are entitled to receive dividends when, as, and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. Unvested restricted stock awards have the right to share in dividends, if declared, equally with common stockholders on a nonforfeitable basis.

At-The-Market Facility

On January 22, 2024, the Company implemented an “at-the-market” facility (the “ATM Facility”) which gives the Company the ability to raise up to $75,000 through the issuance of new shares of common stock through a sales agent (the “Sales Agent”). The Company has no obligation to sell, and the Sales Agent has no obligation to buy or sell, any shares of common stock under the ATM Facility. As of March 31, 2026 the remaining availability under the ATM Facility was $75,000.

Noncontrolling Interests

Exzeo

As of March 31, 2026, HCI Group, Inc. owned 75,000,000 of the 90,918,430 shares of Exzeo’s outstanding common stock. Of the shares not owned by HCI Group, Inc., 2,533,303 represent unvested restricted stock awards granted to Exzeo's employees.

Dilution from subsidiary stock-based compensation in the consolidated statements of equity primarily relates to (i) the net settlement of Exzeo common shares surrendered by employees to satisfy payroll tax liabilities associated with the vesting of restricted stock awards issued under Exzeo’s stock-based compensation plan and (ii) the change in ownership of Exzeo as a result of the vesting of restricted stock awards issued under Exzeo’s stock-based compensation plan.

Subscriber Surplus Contributions

Subscriber surplus contributions in noncontrolling interests represent the non-refundable portion of the surplus contributions received from policyholders of CORE and Tailrow. The surplus contributions are reclassified from redeemable noncontrolling interest once they are no longer refundable. As CORE and Tailrow are owned by their underlying policyholders, their net assets are included in noncontrolling interests.

Litigation and Other Legal Matters

The Company is party to litigation and other legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. From time to time, the Company is also subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information requests and subpoenas, inquiries, investigations, and threatened legal actions and proceedings.

The Company records accruals for losses that are probable and reasonably estimable.

Note 20 -- Related Party Transactions

HCPCI, TTIC, CORE, and Tailrow have reinstatement premium protection reinsurance contracts (“RPP”) with various reinsurers for the 2025-2026 treaty year. The purpose of the RPP contracts is to indemnify HCPCI, TTIC, CORE, and Tailrow for the reinstatement premium which HCPCI, TTIC, CORE, and Tailrow pay or become liable to pay under the reinstatement provisions of the respective excess of loss reinsurance contracts. For one of the RPP contracts, Oxbridge Reinsurance Limited (“Oxbridge”) participates as a subscribing reinsurer with HCPCI and Tailrow as collective reinsureds. One of the Company’s non-employee directors, Jay Madhu, serves as Oxbridge’s Chairman of its Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and is an investor in that company. For its participation on the RPP contract, Oxbridge’s annual premium is $1,033 and is paid by HCPCI and Tailrow over four installments. Management believes the premium rate is competitive with market rates. A trust account has been established with HCPCI and Tailrow as collective beneficiaries and Oxbridge as grantor. Each of the four premium installments is deposited into the trust account in order to fully collateralize Oxbridge’s obligations under the RPP contract. Trust assets may be withdrawn by HCPCI and Tailrow to indemnify HCPCI and Tailrow for Oxbridge’s obligations under the provisions of the RPP contract. Total premiums to Oxbridge were $1,099 for the 2024-2025 treaty year.

OVERVIEW

HCI Group, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” or “HCI”), is primarily engaged in the property and casualty insurance business. We provide various homeowners’ property and casualty insurance products for properties located in the State of Florida, which is our primary market, as well as in other states in the northeast and southeast regions of the U.S.

Our insurance operations are supported by other insurance-related subsidiaries within the consolidated group.

Exzeo Group, Inc. (“Exzeo”), a publicly traded majority-owned subsidiary, provides turn-key insurance technology and operations solutions based on a proprietary platform of purpose-built software and data analytics applications that are specifically designed for the property and casualty insurance ecosystem. We utilize Exzeo's internally developed software technologies to identify profitable underwriting opportunities, drive efficiency in claim processing and settlements, and streamline operations across our insurance operations and other insurance-related businesses.

We also provide attorney-in-fact (“AIF”) services for reciprocal insurance exchanges owned by their policyholders. Although we do not have any equity interest in the reciprocal insurance exchanges, we are required to consolidate them as their primary beneficiary. In addition, we have a commercial real estate group that is primarily engaged in the business of developing and operating commercial properties for investment purposes or for our own use.

HCI Group, Inc.’s common stock is currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “HCI.” Exzeo completed its initial public offering in November of 2025 and is currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “XZO.” As of March 31, 2026, HCI Group, Inc. owned approximately 82.5% of Exzeo’s outstanding shares of common stock, inclusive of unvested restricted stock.

We identify our segments based on the manner in which our Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker, evaluates performance and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources. We have five reportable segments: Insurance Operations, Exzeo, Reciprocal Exchange Operations, Real Estate, and Corporate and Other. Due to their economic characteristics, our property and casualty insurance and reinsurance operations, excluding the insurance operations under Reciprocal Exchange Operations, are grouped together into one reportable segment under Insurance Operations. The Exzeo segment represents Exzeo’s operations related to insurance technology and operations solutions for property and casualty insurance carriers. The Reciprocal Exchange Operations segment represents the insurance operations of consolidated reciprocal insurance exchanges that are owned by their policyholders. The Real Estate segment represents the operations of our commercial real estate group that is primarily engaged in the business of developing and operating commercial properties for investment purposes or for our own use. The Corporate and Other segment represents the activities of the holding companies and any other operations that do not meet the quantitative and qualitative thresholds for a reportable segment. The determination of segments may change over time due to changes in operational emphasis, revenue, and results of operations. Refer to Note 13 “Segment Information” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

All financial information presented in this section has been prepared in U.S. dollars in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and includes the accounts of HCI Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

FACTORS AFFECTING OPERATING RESULTS

Our general operating and growth strategies are to continually optimize our existing book of insurance business, organically expand our insurance business, manage our costs and expenses, diversify our business operations, develop and deploy new technologies to streamline operational processes, and maintain a strong balance sheet so we can quickly pursue accretive opportunities when they arise. Our growth strategies also include policy assumption from third-party insurance companies with the intention of renewing and/or replacing them with our policies.

Our insurance business has grown both organically and through strategic policy assumptions, which have been a key driver of our expansion. We have participated in legislatively mandated take-out programs, designed to reduce

the state’s risk exposure by transitioning policies from Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“Citizens”), a Florida state supported insurer, to private insurers. We selectively pursue additional assumption opportunities with Citizens when they align with our risk appetite and growth strategy. We also assume policies from other insurance companies in Florida and/or any other state in which we operate.

The nature of our business is to cover losses that may arise from, among other things, hurricanes and other catastrophic events such as tornadoes, floods and winter storms. The occurrence of any such catastrophes could have a significant adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. To mitigate the risk associated with catastrophic events, we purchase reinsurance from other large insurance companies. Even without catastrophic events, we may incur losses and loss adjustment expenses that deviate substantially from our estimates and that may exceed our reserves, in which case our net income and capital would decrease. Our operating and growth strategies may also be impacted by regulation of our business by the State of Florida and other states in which we operate. For example, insurance regulators must approve our policy forms and premium rates as well as monitor our compliance with financial and regulatory requirements.

Seasonality of Our Business

Our insurance business is seasonal as hurricanes and tropical storms affecting Florida, our primary market, and other southeastern states typically occur during the period from June 1st through November 30th of each year. Winter storms in the northeast usually occur during the period between December 1st and March 31st of each year. Also, our reinsurance treaty year is typically effective on June 1st of each year and any variation in the cost of our reinsurance, whether due to changes in reinsurance rates, coverage levels or changes in the total insured value of our policy base, will occur and be reflected in our financial results beginning on June 1st of each year.

RECENT EVENTS

In March 2026, Fortex Reinsurance SPC, Ltd. (“Fortex”), our wholly-owned Cayman Islands domiciled captive reinsurance subsidiary, received its license to operate as a Class B insurer in the Cayman Islands. Fortex will allow us additional flexibility to selectively retain risk and reduce the cost of third party reinsurance. Fortex is regulated by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

We make strategic decisions, measure our performance, evaluate our business, and identify trends in our business using certain key performance indicators, including the operating metrics gross loss ratio, gross expense ratio, and net combined ratio. Computations of our key performance indicators may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Additionally, we compute and disclose other ratios for informational purposes only.

Gross Loss Ratio

Gross loss ratio is defined as losses and loss adjustment expenses in relation to gross premiums earned. The gross loss ratio represents the percentage of our premiums used to cover our losses. We use the gross loss ratio as a metric to measure and monitor our underwriting and pricing practices.

Gross Expense Ratio

Gross expense ratio is defined as total expenses excluding losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest expense in relation to gross premiums earned. The gross expense ratio represents the percentage of our gross premiums used on operating expenses. We use the gross expense ratio as a metric to measure and monitor the efficiency of our operating and overhead costs.

Net Combined Ratio

Net combined ratio is defined as total expenses excluding interest expense in relation to net premiums earned. The net combined ratio represents the combination of the net loss ratio and net expense ratio. We use the net combined ratio as a metric to measure and monitor our overall profitability.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

Gross Premiums Earned increased primarily due to a higher volume of policies in force as a result of the addition of policies assumed from Citizens during the first and fourth quarters of 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, gross premiums earned were $291.2 million from Insurance Operations and $36.5 million from Reciprocal Exchange Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, gross premiums earned were $282.1 million from Insurance Operations and $19.4 million from Reciprocal Exchange Operations.

Premiums Ceded increased primarily due to the growth in the volume of policies in force. Premiums ceded represented 31.9% and 33.2% of gross premiums earned during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Our premiums ceded represent costs of reinsurance (i) to cover losses from catastrophes that exceed the retention levels defined by our catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contracts, (ii) to provide additional loss coverage on a high-value individual risk basis through facultative reinsurance, or (iii) to assume a proportional share of losses as defined in a quota share agreement. The rates we pay for reinsurance are based primarily on policy exposures reflected in gross premiums earned. Under contracts in effect prior to June 1, 2025, reinsurance costs could be adjusted by retrospective provisions under reinsurance contracts. There were no adjustments to premiums ceded related to retrospective provisions for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Net Premiums Earned represent gross premiums earned less premiums ceded.

Net Premiums Written represent premiums charged on policies issued during the period less any applicable reinsurance costs.

The following is a reconciliation of our Net Premiums Written to Net Premiums Earned for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (in thousands):

Net premiums written decreased as the first quarter of 2025 included an assumption of $22.0 million of written premium from Citizens. We had approximately 297,800 policies in force as of March 31, 2026 compared to approximately 278,400 policies in force as of March 31, 2025.

Net investment income increased primarily as a result of an increase in our invested assets.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses increased primarily due to a higher volume of policies in force as well as some weather-related events in the northeast during the three months ended March 31, 2026. The gross loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 20.1% compared to 19.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. See “Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses” under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Policy Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses primarily reflect the amortization of deferred acquisition costs such as commissions payable to agents for production and renewal of policies and premium taxes. The overall increase was primarily due to a higher volume of premiums in force in the comparative periods.

Income Tax Expense increased primarily as a result of an increase in income before income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was 26.3% and 26.0%, respectively. Incorporated within each rate is the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0%, state taxes (net of federal benefits), and unfavorable non-deductible compensation expenses.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased primarily as a result of an increase in net income generated by Reciprocal Insurance Exchange Operations as well as the dilution of HCI’s ownership of Exzeo as a result of Exzeo’s initial public offering in November 2025.

Ratios

The gross loss ratio, gross expense ratio, and net combined ratio each remained relatively consistent from the three months ended March 31, 2025 to the three months ended March 31, 2026.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Throughout our history, our liquidity requirements have been met through issuances of our common and preferred stock, debt offerings, and funds from operations. We expect our future liquidity requirements will be met by funds from operations, primarily the cash received by our insurance subsidiaries from premiums written and investment income. We may consider raising additional capital through debt and/or equity offerings to support our growth and future investment opportunities.

Our insurance subsidiaries require liquidity and adequate capital to meet ongoing obligations to policyholders and claimants and to fund operating expenses. In addition, we attempt to maintain adequate levels of liquidity and surplus to manage any differences between the duration of our liabilities and invested assets. In the insurance industry, cash collected for premiums from policies written is invested, interest and dividends are earned thereon, and losses and loss adjustment expenses are paid out over a period of years. This period of time varies by the circumstances surrounding each claim. With the exception of litigated claims, substantially all of our losses and loss adjustment expenses are fully settled and paid within approximately 100 days of the claim receipt date. Additional cash outflow occurs through payments of underwriting costs such as commissions, taxes, payroll, and general overhead expenses.

As of March 31, 2026, we have $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents. We believe that we maintain sufficient liquidity to pay claims and expenses, as well as to satisfy commitments in the event of unforeseen events such as reinsurer insolvencies, inadequate premium rates, or reserve deficiencies. We maintain a comprehensive reinsurance program at levels management considers adequate to diversify risk and safeguard our financial position.

In the future, we anticipate our primary use of funds will be to pay claims, reinsurance premiums, interest and principal on our debt, dividends, and to fund operating expenses and real estate acquisitions. From time to time, our use of funds may also include repurchases of shares of our common stock or other strategic initiatives.

Revolving Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2026, we are party to a senior secured revolving credit facility with Fifth Third Bank (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The Revolving Credit Facility currently provides borrowing capacity of up to $150.0 million and expires on November 5, 2030. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to the one or three month Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a ten basis points adjustment plus a margin based on the debt-to-capital ratio, with interest payments due in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1.

As of March 31, 2026, we had an outstanding balance of $36.0 million and had an available borrowing capacity of $114.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all required covenants. Refer to Note 8 “Revolving Credit Facility” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

At-The-Market Facility

On January 22, 2024, we implemented an “at-the-market” facility (the “ATM Facility”) which gives us the ability to raise up to $75.0 million through the issuance of new shares of common stock through a sales agent (the “Sales Agent”). We have no obligation to sell, and the Sales Agent has no obligation to buy or sell, any shares of common stock under the ATM Facility. As of March 31, 2026 the remaining availability under the ATM Facility was $75.0 million.

Share Repurchase Program

In March 2026, our Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $80.0 million, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of our common stock through February 27, 2027 (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Share Repurchase Program permits us to repurchase shares for cash periodically in open market purchases, block transactions, privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, or by other means, including through the use of trading programs intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18 under that Act. The timing and total amount of any stock repurchases will be determined at management's discretion and depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices and other considerations. The Share Repurchase Program

does not obligate us to repurchase a specific number of shares of common stock, and may be canceled or suspended at any time without notice.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 110,071 shares of common stock for $17.5 million, excluding commissions and fees, under the Share Repurchase Program. As of March 31, 2026, we may repurchase up to $62.5 million, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of its common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.

As of May 6, 2026, we repurchased 265,416 shares of common stock for $41.5 million, excluding commissions and fees, and may repurchase up to $38.5 million, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program.

Investments

The main objective of our investment policy is to maximize our after-tax investment income with a reasonable level of risk given the current financial market. Our excess cash is invested primarily in money market accounts, certificates of deposit, and available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $979.9 million of available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity investments, which are carried at fair value, and our available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities had a weighted-average duration of 5.1 years. Changes in the general interest rate environment affect the returns available on new available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments. While a rising interest rate environment enhances the returns available on new investments, it reduces the market value of existing available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments and thus the availability of gains on disposition. A decline in interest rates reduces the returns available on new available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments but increases the market value of existing available-for-sale fixed-maturity investments, creating the opportunity for realized investment gains on disposition.

In the future, we may alter our investment policy with regard to investments in federal, state and municipal obligations, preferred and common equity securities and real estate mortgages, as permitted by applicable law, including insurance regulations.

Limited Partnership Investments

Our limited partnership investments consist of six private equity funds managed by their general partners. Withdrawals from limited partnership investments are generally not permitted and distributions occur when the underlying investments of the limited partnership investments are liquidated. Additionally, two of these funds have unexpired capital commitments which are callable at the discretion of the fund’s general partner for funding new investments or expenses of the fund. Although capital commitments for the four remaining funds have expired, the general partners may request additional funds under certain circumstances. As of March 31, 2026, there were unexpired capital commitments of $3.8 million. Refer to Note 5 “Investments” of our unaudited consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Real Estate Investments

Real estate investments have long been a significant component of our overall investment portfolio. It diversifies our portfolio and helps offset the volatility of other higher-risk assets. Thus, we may consider expanding our real estate investments portfolio should an opportunity arise.

Dividends

On April 22, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.40 per common share. The dividends are payable on June 18, 2026 to stockholders of record on May 15, 2026.

Net cash provided by operating activities consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written, and reinsurance recoveries of approximately $20.1 million less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest payments.

Net cash used in investing activities consisted primarily of purchases of available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities of $344.0 million and purchases of real estate investments of $0.8 million, partially offset by proceeds from sales of available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities of $17.0 million, proceeds from calls, repayments and maturities of available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities of $2.0 million, and proceeds from sales of real estate investments of $0.8 million.

Net cash used in financing activities consisted primarily of $17.5 million of repurchases of common stock and $5.2 million of common stock dividends, partially offset by net subscriber surplus contributions of $2.7 million and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.8 million.

Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

Net cash provided by operating activities consisted primarily of cash received from net premiums written, and reinsurance recoveries of approximately $30.7 million less cash disbursed for operating expenses, losses and loss adjustment expenses and interest payments.

Net cash used in financing activities consisted primarily of $4.3 million of common stock dividends, net repayment of our Revolving Credit Facility of $2.0 million, $0.6 million of net share settlements, and repayments of long-term debt of $0.1 million, partially offset by net subscriber surplus contributions of $0.8 million.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of March 31, 2026, we had unexpired capital commitments for limited partnerships investments of $3.8 million as described above. We do not have any other arrangements giving rise to material obligations that are not reported in our consolidated balance sheets as described in Item 303 of SEC Regulation S-K.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to select accounting policies and make estimates that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Management’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or market conditions.

The following discussion includes estimates prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations, and are based on, among other things, estimates, assumptions, and judgments made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.

We believe our accounting policies and estimates specific to losses and loss adjustment expenses, reinsurance recoverable, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, and limited partnership investments involve our most significant judgments and estimates material to our consolidated financial statements.

Our accounting policies and estimates and their related risks that we consider to be critical are more fully described in our 2025 Annual Report. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no material changes with respect to any of our critical accounting policies.

Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Our liability for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“Reserves”) is specific to property insurance, which is our insurance subsidiaries’ only line of business. The Reserves include both case reserves on reported claims and our reserves for incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) losses. As of each period end date, the balance of our Reserves is based on our best estimate of the ultimate cost of reported claims and the IBNR losses based primarily on our historical experience. Changes in the Reserves are charged or credited to operations as the Reserves are adjusted.

The IBNR represents our estimate of the ultimate cost of all claims that have occurred but have not been reported to us, and in some cases may not yet be known to the insured, and future development of reported claims. Estimating the IBNR component of our Reserves involves considerable judgment on the part of management. As of March 31, 2026, $506.1 million of the total $566.8 million of Reserves is attributable to our estimate of IBNR. The remaining $60.7 million relates to known cases which have been reported but not yet fully settled and represents our best estimate of the cost to settle such claims. As of March 31, 2026, $52.7 million of the $60.7 million in reserves for known cases relates to claims incurred during prior years.

Our Reserves decreased from $576.5 million as of December 31, 2025 to $566.8 million as of March 31, 2026. The $9.7 million decrease is comprised of (i) reductions in our non-catastrophe Reserves of $34.7 million for 2025 and prior loss years; (ii) reductions in our catastrophe Reserves of $22.1 million primarily related to Hurricane Ian, Hurricane Helene, and Hurricane Milton; and (iii) partially offset by $47.1 million in reserves established for the 2026 loss year. The Reserves established for 2026 claims are primarily driven by IBNR as of March 31, 2026. The decrease of $56.8 million related to our 2025 and prior loss-years reserves is due to settlement of such claims.

Based on all information known to us, we consider our Reserves as of March 31, 2026 to be adequate to cover our claims for losses that have been incurred as of that date including losses yet to be reported to us. However, these estimates are continually reviewed by management as they are subject to significant variability and may be impacted by trends in claim severity and frequency or unusual exposures that have not yet been identified. As part of the process, we review historical data and consider various factors, including known and anticipated regulatory and legal developments, changes in social attitudes, inflation and economic conditions. As experience

develops and other data becomes available, these estimates are revised, as required, resulting in increases or decreases to the Reserves. Adjustments are reflected in the results of operations in the period in which they are made, and the liabilities may deviate substantially from prior estimates.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of March 31, 2026, our investment portfolio included available-for-sale fixed-maturity and equity securities, the purposes of which are not for speculation. Our main objective is to maximize after-tax investment income and maintain sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations while minimizing market risk, which is the potential economic loss from adverse fluctuations in securities prices. We consider many factors including credit ratings, investment concentrations, regulatory requirements, anticipated fluctuation of interest rates, durations and market conditions in developing investment strategies. Our investment securities are managed primarily by an investment committee appointed by our Board of Directors. From time to time, our investment committee may decide to invest in low-risk assets such as U.S. government bonds.

Our investment portfolio is exposed to interest rate risk, credit risk and equity price risk. Fiscal and economic uncertainties caused by any government action or inaction may exacerbate these risks and potentially have adverse impacts on the value of our investment portfolio.

We classify our fixed-maturity securities as available-for-sale and report any unrealized gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within our stockholders’ equity. As such, any material temporary changes in their fair value can adversely impact our stockholders’ equity. In addition, we recognize any unrealized gains or losses related to our equity securities in our statement of income. As a result, our results of operations can be materially affected by the volatility in the equity market.

Interest Rate Risk

Our available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities are sensitive to potential losses resulting from unfavorable changes in interest rates. We manage the risk by analyzing anticipated movement in interest rates and considering our future capital needs.

The following table illustrates the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates to the fair value of our available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities as of March 31, 2026 (dollar amounts in thousands):


Hypothetical Change in Interest Rates	Estimated Fair Value		Change in Estimated Fair Value			Percentage Increase (Decrease) in Estimated Fair Value
300 basis point increase	$	786,519	$	(128,327	)		-14	%
200 basis point increase		826,543		(88,303	)		-10	%
100 basis point increase		869,318		(45,528	)		-5	%
100 basis point decrease		963,125		48,279			5	%
200 basis point decrease		1,014,156		99,310			11	%
300 basis point decrease		1,067,940		153,094			17	%

Credit Risk

Credit risk can expose us to potential losses arising principally from adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuers of our available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities. We mitigate the risk by investing in available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities that are generally investment grade, by diversifying our investment portfolio to avoid concentrations in any single issuer or business sector, and by continually monitoring each individual security for declines in credit quality. While we emphasize credit quality in our investment selection process, significant downturns in the markets or general economy may impact the credit quality of our portfolio.

The following table presents the composition of our available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities, by rating, as of March 31, 2026 (dollar amounts in thousands):

Equity Price Risk

As of March 31, 2026, our equity investment portfolio included common stocks, perpetual preferred stocks, mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. We may incur potential losses due to adverse changes in equity security prices. We manage the risk primarily through industry and issuer diversification and asset mix.

The timing and total amount of any stock repurchases will be determined at management's discretion and depend upon business, economic and market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, prevailing stock prices and other considerations. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase a specific number of shares of common stock, and may be canceled or suspended at any time without notice.

In addition, we withhold shares of our common stock to satisfy our employees’ payroll tax liabilities associated with the vesting of restricted stock awards issued under our share-based compensation plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased shares of our common stock as follows (dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

On March 3, 2026, we announced our Board of Directors authorized a program which permits us to repurchase up to $80,000 thousand, excluding commissions and fees, of shares of our common stock through February 27, 2027.

Working Capital Restrictions and Other Limitations on the Payment of Dividends

We are not subject to working capital restrictions or other limitations on the payment of dividends. However, our insurance subsidiaries are subject to restrictions on the dividends they may pay. Those restrictions could impact HCI’s ability to pay dividends in the future.

Under Florida law, a domestic insurer may not pay any dividend or distribute cash or other property to its stockholders except out of that part of its available and accumulated capital and surplus funds which is derived from realized net operating profits on its business and net realized capital gains. Additionally, a Florida domestic insurer may not make dividend payments or distributions to its stockholders without prior approval of the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (“FLOIR”) if the dividend or distribution would exceed the larger of (1) the lesser of (a) 10.0% of its capital surplus or (b) net income, not including realized capital gains, plus a two year carry forward, (2) 10.0% of capital surplus with dividends payable constrained to unassigned funds minus 25% of unrealized capital gains or (3) the lesser of (a) 10.0% of capital surplus or (b) net investment income plus a three year carry forward with dividends payable constrained to unassigned funds minus 25% of unrealized capital gains.

Alternatively, a Florida domestic insurer may pay a dividend or distribution without the prior written approval of the FLOIR if (1) the dividend is equal to or less than the greater of (a) 10.0% of the insurer’s capital surplus as regards to policyholders derived from realized net operating profits on its business and net realized capital gains or (b) the insurer’s entire net operating profits and realized net capital gains derived during the immediately preceding calendar year, (2) the insurer will have policy holder capital surplus equal to or exceeding 115.0% of the minimum required statutory capital surplus after the dividend or distribution, (3) the insurer files a notice of the dividend or distribution with the FLOIR at least ten business days prior to the dividend payment or distribution and (4) the notice includes a certification by an officer of the insurer attesting that, after the payment of the dividend or distribution, the insurer will have at least 115% of required statutory capital surplus as to policyholders. Except as provided above, a Florida domiciled insurer may only pay a dividend or make a distribution (1) subject to prior approval by the FLOIR or (2) 30 days after the FLOIR has received notice of such dividend or distribution and has not disapproved it within such time.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, our insurance subsidiaries paid dividends of $44.5 million to HCI.

ITEM 3 – DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4 – MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

None.
