What's Driving HGTY's Business? Latest 10-Q Breakdown
✓ 46/46 datapoints verifiedAI-extracted from Hagerty, Inc.'s 10-Q filed 2026-05-06 — Q1 2026 (quarter ended March 31, 2026). Every figure is machine-verified against the filing text on SEC EDGAR.
Net loss of $12.7M driven by Markel Fronting Arrangement transition; Adjusted EBITDA surged 77% to $85.2M as earned premium jumped 41.5% from quota share increase to 100%.
Biggest Revenue Drivers
Total revenue: $311.8M-5.0% YoY
Markel Fronting Arrangement increased Hagerty Re's U.S. quota share from 80% to 100% effective January 1, 2026, plus continued growth of subject premiums.
Eliminated commission revenue for Essentia-originated policies under Markel Fronting Arrangement; no longer recognized as benefit received by Hagerty Re rather than Essentia.
Decrease from lower inventory sales, partially offset by 81% increase in Net Auction Sales at 2026 Amelia auction and increased BAC finance revenue.
Increase driven by higher revenue from new insurance policies issued with bundled HDC memberships.
Increase due to larger fixed maturity securities portfolio.
Largest Expense Items
Markel Fronting Arrangement increased U.S. quota share to 100%, plus continued premium growth; Hagerty Re loss ratio improved to 38.4% from 42.0% YoY due to favorable prior year development.
Incremental ceding commission expense for 2025 in-force policies assumed at 100%, partially offset by deferral of 2026 MGA policy acquisition costs to be amortized over 12 months.
Markel Fronting Arrangement reclassified MGA risk-taking costs previously in SG&A to this category; reflects control of Essentia book of business.
Markel Fronting Arrangement reclassified risk-taking costs to Losses & LAE and Underwriting expenses; reflected 46.9M in Insurance segment vs. 115.9M prior year.
Margins: Gross underwriting margin improved with Hagerty Re combined ratio of 86.5% vs. 88.5% YoY, driven by favorable prior-year loss development. However, net loss reflects $89M in amortization of deferred ceding commissions from 2025 policies transitioning under Markel arrangement, which management excludes from Adjusted EBITDA as one-time transitional charge running off by end of 2026.
Watch Items from the Filing
- Markel Fronting Arrangement introduces material operational risk: 100% underwriting risk now assumed on Essentia book; company controls claims authority and pricing but must manage catastrophe reinsurance retention ($35M per-event), with $50.5M LPT proceeds accounting uncertainty.
- State Farm represents 51.2% of Class A voting control and 62.5% of Series A Preferred; related-party quota share reinsurance ($5.2M ceded Q1 2026) and State Farm Term Loan ($25M outstanding at 8% fixed to 2033) create concentrated dependency.
- BAC loan portfolio grew 38.3% to $143M; one borrower represents 23.7% of notes receivable; LTV improved to 54.5% from 51.8% but concentration and collector car market volatility remain material risks.
- Series A Convertible Preferred Stock estimated redemption value of $107.8M represents 16.7% of stockholders' equity; optional term redemption exercisable after June 2028 could require substantial cash outlay or dilution.

AI Insight: HGTY Financial Trends
Revenue climbed 21% year-over-year to $388M in Q4 2025, but debt surged to $229M by Q1 2026 as operating cash flow collapsed to $16M.
• Revenue grew from $313M in Q2 2024 to $388M in Q4 2025, a ~24% rise over six quarters, before dipping to $312M in Q1 2026.
• Operating income improved year-over-year: $48M in Q2 2025 vs. $38M in Q2 2024, and $34M in Q3 2025 vs. $10M in Q3 2024.
• Total debt more than doubled from $99M in Q2 2024 to $229M in Q1 2026, while equity grew only modestly from $94M to $219M.
• Operating cash flow deteriorated sharply: from $92M in Q3 2025 to $29M in Q4 2025 and just $16M in Q1 2026.
⚠ Debt jumped $51M in a single quarter to $229M in Q1 2026 — the fastest quarterly increase in the dataset; leverage trajectory warrants close scrutiny.
⚠ Operating CF swung negative (-$13M) in Q4 2024 and is now trending down again; seasonal patterns or structural cash burn need monitoring.
⚠ Operating income data is absent for Q4 2025 and Q1 2026, limiting visibility into profitability at the exact moment debt is accelerating.
AI Insight: HGTY Ratio Trends
Hagerty's Q1 2026 operating margin swung to -6.7%, its worst quarter in the dataset, reversing a four-quarter recovery trend.
• Operating margin recovered from 2.1% in Q4 2024 to a peak of 12.9% in Q2 2025, before collapsing to -6.7% in Q1 2026.
• ROIC followed the same arc: rising from 9.4% in Q4 2024 to 58.6% in Q2 2025, then turning negative at -18.7% in Q1 2026.
• D/E ratio improved from 1.05 in Q2 2024 to 0.71 in Q4 2024, but has since rebounded back to 1.05 in Q1 2026.
⚠ Q1 seasonality may partly explain the -6.7% operating margin — confirm whether Q2 2026 rebounds toward the 12–13% range seen in prior Q2s.
⚠ D/E rising back to 1.05 alongside negative ROIC signals deteriorating returns on a leverage base that had been improving.
⚠ NPM, ROE, and ROA remain entirely absent from the dataset, limiting full profitability assessment.
