Highlights

Net operating income per share ¹ of $2.10 despite elevated catastrophe losses, driven by solid underlying performance in all geographies and 50% growth in net investment income
Undiscounted combined ratio¹ of 98.3% (93.5% discounted) included 8 points of catastrophe losses in excess of expectations, while inflation moderated as expected in personal auto, and results remained strong across commercial lines
Operating DPW^1,2 growth of 6% led by good momentum in personal lines, and continued rate action across all business segments
Strong balance sheet with $2.8 billion of total capital margin¹and BVPS¹ increasing 1% sequentially, reflecting EPS of $0.83 and an equity issuance for the acquisition of Direct Line Insurance Group plc's brokered commercial lines operations
Accelerated our strategy by materially increasing our presence in the outperforming UK commercial lines business, while a strategic review of UK personal lines is underway

Charles Brindamour, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"Our teams remain hard at work getting customers back on track after several months of elevated severe weather activity. It is in precisely these moments that we can best demonstrate our purpose – to help people, businesses and society be resilient in bad times," said Charles Brindamour, Chief Executive Officer of Intact Financial Corporation. "We have a long track record of successfully navigating volatility in catastrophe losses. The third quarter was no different, as we delivered an operating ROE of 12.2%, and our balance sheet remained strong with $2.8 billion of total capital margin. I am pleased to see continued organic growth momentum, in the context of strong underlying underwriting performance and an acceleration in the UK&I segment's path to outperformance."

12-Month Industry Outlook

Over the next twelve months, we expect hard insurance market conditions to continue in most lines of business, driven by inflation and natural disasters.
In Canada, both personal property and auto premiums are expected to grow by high single-digits in response to higher severity.
In commercial and specialty lines across all geographies, we expect hard market conditions to continue in most lines of business, with high single-digit premium growth on average.
Given the rise in interest rates, we expect pre-tax investment yield for the industry to continue increasing as portfolios roll over.

Q3-2023 Consolidated Performance

Overall operating DPW growth was 6%, or 8% excluding strategic exits (such as UK personal lines motor and certain delegated relationships), led by strong momentum in personal lines, and continued rate actions across all geographies.
Overall combined ratio of 98.3% (undiscounted) included 12 points of catastrophe losses, mainly from severe weather events in Canada. Underlying performance was strong across all regions, particularly in commercial lines.
Including the impact of discounting, the overall combined ratio of 93.5% was 3.1 points higher than last year, mostly driven by the underwriting results mentioned above, offset in part by the benefit of underwriting discount build at higher interest rates compared to last year.
Operating net investment income of $349 million for the quarter increased 50% year-over-year, benefiting from the rising yields and increased turnover over the last 12 months.
Distribution income increased by 3% to $116 million, reflecting strong core profitability and contributions from recent acquisitions, tempered by moderating variable commissions.

Lines of Business⁴ P&C Canada

Personal auto premiums growth accelerated to 9%, driven by our rate actions in hard market conditions as well as an improving unit growth trajectory. The combined ratio of 95.4% included roughly 2 points of higher-than-expected catastrophe losses and industry pools. We expect to remain at a seasonally adjusted sub-95 combined ratio over the next 12 months.
Personal property premiums grew by 7%, up 2 points from the preceding quarter, reflecting rate actions in hard market conditions and strengthening unit growth. The elevated combined ratio of 123.7% included 34 points of catastrophe losses in excess of expectations. We remain well positioned to protect profitability through rate actions in supportive market conditions, while continuing to control costs through supply chain and other claims improvements.
Commercial lines premium growth of 7% was up 1 point from the preceding quarter, driven by continued rate increases and strong retention. The combined ratio at 92.7% was 5.1 points higher than last year, mainly due to elevated catastrophe losses. We remain well positioned to continue to deliver a low-90s or better combined ratio, as a result of our profitability actions in the prevailing hard market conditions.

P&C UK&I

Commercial lines premiums decreased 1% on a constant currency basis, as strong growth in specialty lines was offset by a 9-point impact from strategic exits, continued optimization of our commercial delegated portfolio, and the end of a large commercial motor contract. The combined ratio of 90.6% reflected strong current year performance and the absence of catastrophes, offset by an unusually high level of adverse prior year development.
Personal lines premiums declined 2% on a constant currency basis, reflecting a 15-point headwind from the exit of the UK personal lines motor portfolio. The combined ratio of 96.6% benefitted from our ongoing rating actions, as well as an absence of catastrophe losses. We continue to believe that this line of business is operating at a high 90s run rate. We are exploring strategic options for our UK Personal Lines business, including a possible sale.

P&C U.S.

Commercial lines premiums grew 13% on a constant currency basis, led by a 7-point contribution from new products (following the Highland MGA acquisition a year ago), as well as rate increases. The combined ratio improved to 88.5%, driven by greater exposure to more profitable lines of business, as well as rate increases.

³ Includes the impact of discount build on our claims liabilities for all P&C segments.
⁴ Combined ratios within the Lines of Business are reported on an undiscounted basis.

Net Operating Income, EPS and ROE

Net operating income attributable to common shareholders of $370 million was 24% lower than Q3-2022, as a $373 million increase in catastrophe losses offset the impact of improving underwriting fundamentals, and higher earned premiums and investment income.
Earnings per share of $0.83 due to increased catastrophe losses of approximately $1.60 per share and higher non-operating losses.
As of September 30, 2023, the Operating ROE remained healthy at 12.2%, despite a 3-point impact from catastrophe losses over the last 12 months. The ROE of 7.8% reflected the operating challenge mentioned above, as well as exited lines and equity investment losses.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended the quarter in a strong financial position, with a total capital margin of $2.8 billion and solid regulatory capital ratios in all jurisdictions.
The adjusted debt-to-total capital ratio of 22.7 % was relatively stable as a portion of the financing of the Direct Line Insurance Group plc's brokered Commercial Lines operations (the "UK Commercial Lines acquisition") was temporarily used to reduce short-term debt. Following the closing of the acquisition in Q4, our adjusted debt-to-total capital ratio is expected to be below 24%.
IFC's book value per share(BVPS) was $77.24 at September 30, 2023, and 1% higher than Q2-2023, reflecting the resilience of the platform and an equity issuance to partially fund the UK Commercial Lines acquisition.

M&A Update

On September 6, 2023 we announced the acquisition of Direct Line Insurance Group plc's brokered Commercial Lines operations, another significant step to accelerate our strategy and better position our UK&I operations for outperformance. We closed the UK Commercial Lines acquisition on October 26, 2023. Substantially all of the future economics of the business have been transferred to RSA effective October 1, 2023. Starting in Q4-2023, results from these operations will be reported within our UK&I Commercial Lines segment.
We continue to explore strategic options for our UK Personal Lines business, including a possible sale.
