Reinsurance Disclosures [Abstract] |
Reinsurance for the Reciprocal | Note 12. Reinsurance for the Reciprocal 2026 Program As of April 1, 2026, coverage for excess-of-loss catastrophe reinsurance from a panel of third-party reinsurers started at $35.0 million for per occurrence for all perils, up to a loss of $365.0 million. We also purchased reinstatement premium protection for the first three layers of our third-party placed excess-of-loss (“XOL”) program. In addition, our captive reinsurance business provides reinsurance support to improve capital efficiency for the Reciprocal. Our captive reinsurer provides reinsurance coverage for risks with low earnings volatility. In July 2026, the Reciprocal obtained approximately $100.0 million of multi-peril collateralized catastrophe reinsurance protection through a catastrophe bond transaction. This coverage attaches above the top of the Reciprocal’s third-party excess-of-loss reinsurance tower, providing additional catastrophe protection beyond the $365.0 million upper limit of the XOL program described above. Under the arrangement, Harbor Crest Re Ltd., a bankruptcy-remote special purpose insurance vehicle, issued $100.0 million of Class A principal-at-risk notes and entered into a reinsurance agreement providing protection for certain losses arising from named storms, winter storms, severe weather events, wildfires, and fire-following earthquake events in the United States. The coverage is structured on an indemnity and per-occurrence basis and provides approximately four years of reinsurance protection. The proceeds from the notes are held in collateral accounts and are available to satisfy the reinsurer’s obligations under the reinsurance agreement. Premiums ceded under the arrangement will be recognized as ceded earned premium over the coverage period, while any recoveries are recognized in the period covered losses are incurred and recovery becomes probable. Costs directly attributable to obtaining the reinsurance coverage are deferred and amortized over the applicable coverage period, while other transaction costs are expensed as incurred. The Reciprocal entered into the transaction as part of its broader risk management and reinsurance strategy to diversify sources of catastrophe protection and enhance capital efficiency. 2025 Program As of April 1, 2025, and for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026, coverage for excess-of-loss catastrophe reinsurance started at $25.0 million per occurrence up to a loss of $410.0 million. Additionally, the third-party quota share reinsurance contracts started at 7.5% of property and casualty losses, which included catastrophe events, bringing the effective retention for the Reciprocal from $25.0 million per occurrence to $23.1 million per occurrence. We also placed reinstatement premium protection to cover any reinstatement premiums due on the second through fourth layers. Captive Quota Share Arrangement The Reciprocal has historically utilized our captive reinsurance business as part of its capital management strategy. Effective April 1, 2025, our captive reinsurer began providing reinsurance support under its current arrangement to improve capital efficiency for the Reciprocal. Our captive reinsurer provides reinsurance coverage for risks with low earnings volatility, such as non-catastrophic weather quota share risks. This contract was approved for an initial term of 10 years but may be terminated annually by either Porch or the Reciprocal.
