What's Driving KINS's Business? Latest 10-Q Breakdown

26/26 datapoints verified

AI-extracted from KINGSTONE COMPANIES, INC.'s 10-Q filed 2026-05-08 — Q1 2026 (quarter ended March 31, 2026). Every figure is machine-verified against the filing text on SEC EDGAR.

Q1 net loss of $5.8M on $55.9M earned premiums as severe winter catastrophes added 26 points to loss ratio; underlying loss ratio improved to 57.9% despite 19.6% premium growth.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Total revenue: $59.8M+18.4% YoY

Net premiums earned$55.9M+28.4% YoY

Growth from market share gains via competitor exits and organic rate increases, partially offset by lower quota share ceding (5% vs. 16%).

Net investment income$3.3M+62.9% YoY

Higher yields on invested assets (4.3% vs. 3.7%) and increased cash from operations.

Ceding commission revenue$1.4M-52.6% YoY

Lower provisional commissions under new 5% quota share treaty with no contingent ceding commission structure.

Net losses on investments($1.0M)N/A

Unrealized losses on equity and other investments due to market volatility.

Largest Expense Items

Loss and loss adjustment expenses$45.6M+67.7% YoY

Catastrophe losses of $14.5M from winter storms (26 points of loss ratio) and higher non-catastrophe claims from large fire losses.

Commission expense$10.2M+9.5% YoY

Increased premium volume, partially offset by lower contingent commission accruals.

Other underwriting expenses$8.4M+12.9% YoY

Higher salaries for team expansion, premium taxes on growth, and increased DFS regulatory fees.

Other operating expenses$2.3M+118.2% YoY

Increased equity compensation for senior leadership and professional fees for board projects and internal control audit costs.

Margins: Net combined ratio deteriorated to 112.0% from 93.7% YoY, driven entirely by a 26-point catastrophe impact from January–February winter storms. Excluding catastrophes, underlying loss ratio improved 4.2 points to 57.9%, reflecting disciplined underwriting, low non-catastrophe frequency, and higher average premiums despite elevated large-loss severity.

Watch Items from the Filing

  • Catastrophe exposure elevated: Q1 experienced 11 catastrophe events in Jan–Feb 2026 (vs. minimal in Q1 2025); reinsurance treaties changed materially with new $125M catastrophe bond and reduced excess-of-loss coverage from July–Jan 2027.
  • Reinsurance treaty gap: No excess-of-loss or catastrophe coverage effective July 1, 2026–January 1, 2027; only 5% personal-lines quota share in effect, significantly raising net retention.
  • Material weakness in internal controls persists: SOC 1 Type 2 reports lacking for premium quoting and general ledger systems; expected remediation by Dec 31, 2026; disclosure controls not effective as of March 31, 2026.
  • KICO dividend capacity exhausted: Maximum allowable dividend dropped to zero as of March 31, 2026 due to losses; holding company funded KAIC with $5.1M in Q1 2026 with no return expected within one year.
  • Geographic expansion in progress: KAIC licensed in Connecticut (May 1, 2026); Cosi now licensed in California (April 2026); 5-year goal of $500M direct written premium by 2029 announced in 2025.

AI Insight: KINS Financial Trends

KINS equity surged 5x in 18 months as debt collapsed from $51M to $5M, but a $6M net loss in Q1 2026 breaks a six-quarter profit streak.

Revenue grew 62% from $37M in Q2 2024 to $60M in Q1 2026, a consistent upward trajectory across all eight quarters.

Total debt fell from $51M in Q2 2024 to $5M in Q1 2026, a near-total deleveraging of the balance sheet.

Equity tripled from $41M in Q2 2024 to $123M in Q4 2025 before dipping to $115M in Q1 2026.

Net income swung to a $6M loss in Q1 2026 after peaking at $15M in Q4 2025 — the first loss in at least six quarters.

Q1 2026 net loss of $6M erased equity built over prior quarters; whether this reflects seasonal claims or structural deterioration warrants close monitoring.

Operating cash flow dropped to $9M in Q1 2026 from $23M in Q4 2025 — consistent with loss but needs confirmation it recovers.

Debt ticked up slightly to $10M in Q4 2025 then $5M in Q1 2026; trend remains favorable but worth watching if losses persist.

AI Insight: KINS Ratio Trends

Q1 2026 swung sharply negative across all profitability metrics, reversing a strong four-quarter run of expanding margins and near-zero leverage.

Operating margin collapsed to -12.4% in Q1 2026 from 32.7% in Q4 2025, the steepest single-quarter reversal in the dataset.

ROIC swung from a peak of 56.0% in Q2 2025 to -24.7% in Q1 2026, erasing four quarters of exceptional capital efficiency.

Debt-to-equity has structurally improved, falling from 1.24 in Q2 2024 to just 0.05 in Q1 2026, signaling a nearly debt-free balance sheet.

TTM operating margin of 17.4% and ROA of 6.7% reflect underlying full-year profitability despite the Q1 2026 quarterly shock.

Q1 2026 net profit margin turned to -9.7% — determine whether this reflects one-off catastrophe losses or a structural underwriting deterioration.

ROE swung from +48.1% in Q4 2025 to -20.3% in Q1 2026 — severity and recurrence of this swing warrants close monitoring.

Near-zero D/E of 0.05 provides balance-sheet cushion; watch whether capital is preserved or deployed to absorb Q1 2026 losses.
