NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
|
1. |
Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations |
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10 -Q and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete annual financial statements. However, the Company (as defined below) believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair statement of results of operations and financial position. In addition, the year-end consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management of the Company, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the interim periods reported herein may not be indicative of the results expected for the year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10 -K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2025 ( the “ 2024 Form 10 -K”).
HG Holdings, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “it,” and “its”), operates through its subsidiaries, National Consumer Title Insurance Company (“NCTIC”), National Consumer Title Group, LLC (“NCTG”), Title Agency Ventures, LLC (“TAV”), HG Managing Agency, LLC (“HGMA”), Omega National Title Agency, LLC (“ONTA” or “Omega”), Omega National Title of Florida, LLC (“ONF”) and Omega National Title of Pensacola, LLC (“ONP”), and through an affiliated investment in HC Government Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“HC Realty”).
Description of the Business
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company changed its reportable segments to: (i) Title Insurance and (ii) Corporate and Other. The Corporate and Other segment is comprised of activity previously presented in the Real Estate, Reinsurance and Management Advisory Services segments. This change in reportable segments reflects the changes in the business mix and the manner in which management monitors the performance of its operations. The change in reportable segments had no impact on the Company’s historical consolidated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported. Where applicable, all prior periods presented have been revised to conform to this new presentation.
Title Insurance
The Company engages in issuing title insurance through its subsidiary, NCTIC, and providing title agency services through its subsidiaries, NCTG, TAV, ONTA, ONF and ONP. Through NCTIC, the Company underwrites title insurance for owners and mortgagees as the primary insurer. The Company mainly provides title insurance services in the State of Florida.
Title insurance protects against loss or damage resulting from title defects that affect real property. When real property is conveyed from one party to another, occasionally there is an undisclosed defect in the title or a mistake or omission in a prior deed, will or mortgage that may give a third party a legal claim against such property. If a covered claim is made against real property, title insurance provides indemnification against insured defects. There are two basic types of title insurance policies – one for the mortgage lender and one for the real property owner. A lender often requires the property owner to purchase a lender’s title insurance policy to protect its position as a holder of a mortgage loan, but the lender’s title insurance policy does not protect the property owner. The property owner has to purchase a separate owner’s title insurance policy to protect its investment.
NCTIC issues title insurance policies through its home office and through a network of affiliated and independent title agents. In the State of Florida, issuing agents are independent agents or subsidiaries of community and regional mortgage lending institutions, depending on local customs and regulations. The ability to attract and retain issuing agents is a key determinant of the Company’s growth in title insurance premiums written.
Revenues for the title insurance segment primarily result from purchases of new and existing residential and commercial real estate, refinance activity and certain other types of mortgage lending such as home equity lines of credit. Title insurance premiums vary from state to state and are subject to extensive regulation. Statutes generally provide that rates must not be excessive, inadequate or unfairly discriminatory. The process of implementing a rate change in most states involves pre-approval by the applicable state insurance regulator.
The substantial majority of the Company's title insurance business is dependent upon the overall level of residential and commercial real estate activity and mortgage markets, which are cyclical and seasonal. Residential purchase activity is typically slower in the winter months with increased volumes in the spring and summer months and is sensitive to interest rates. Refinance activity is not seasonal, but is generally correlated with changes in interest rates and general economic cycles. Commercial real estate volumes are less sensitive to changes in interest rates than residential real estate volumes, but fluctuate based on local supply and demand conditions and financing availability. Commercial real estate historically has elevated activity towards the end of the year. However, changes in general economic conditions in the United States and abroad can cause fluctuations in these traditional patterns of real estate activity, and changes in the general economic conditions in a geography can cause fluctuations in these traditional patterns of real estate activity in that geography. The Company’s revenues from title insurance premiums in future periods are likely to fluctuate due to these and other factors which are beyond management’s control.
In conducting its title insurance operations, the Company often holds customers’ assets in escrow, pending completion of real estate transactions. This cash is presented as restricted cash on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company records an offsetting escrow liability given that we are liable for the disposition of these escrowed funds.
Corporate and Other
The Corporate and Other segment contains results of management advisory services and other investment activity, not related to title insurance.
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, HGMA, engages in providing various management advisory services such as legal entity formation, licensure, regulatory approval, assumption of policies, and other general operational services.

Significant Accounting Policies |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 , there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in its 2024 Form 10 -K.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023 - 07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280 ): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023 - 07" ), that requires public entities to provide enhanced segment disclosures, including significant segment expenses and other segment items. The amendment was effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company has adopted ASU 2023 - 07 for the 2024 annual reporting period and applied it retrospectively to all periods presented. The updated guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements except for the disclosure requirements provided in Note 8, Segme nt Information .
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023 - 09, Income Taxes (Topic 740 ): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (" ASU 2023 - 09" ), that requires public entities, on an annual basis, to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. The guidance will require all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. The guidance makes several other changes to the disclosure requirements. All entities are required to apply the guidance prospectively, with the option to apply it retrospectively. ASU 2023 - 09 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2025. The Company will provide the required disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the adoption of ASU 2023 - 09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024 - 03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220 - 40 ): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses . This update requires public business entities to disclose disaggregated information about certain income statement expenses, including categories such as employee compensation, intangible asset amortization and depreciation, and selling expense, in the notes to the financial statements. Public business entities are required to apply the guidance prospectively and may apply it retrospectively. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impacts of this standard on our tax disclosures and is not planning to early adopt.

Reserve for Title Claims |
NCTIC’s reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are established using estimated amounts required to settle claims for which notice has been received (reported) and the amount estimated to be required to satisfy claims that have been incurred but not yet reported (“IBNR”). Despite the variability of such estimates, management believes that the total reserve for claims is adequate to cover claim losses which might result from pending and future claims under title insurance policies issued through September 30, 2025 . We continually update loss reserve estimates as new information becomes known, new loss patterns emerge or as other contributing factors are considered and incorporated into the analysis of reserve for claim losses. Due to the uncertainty inherent in the process and to the judgment used by management, the ultimate liability may be greater or less than our current reserves. If actual claims loss development varies from what is currently expected and is not offset by other factors, it is possible that additional reserve adjustments may be required in future periods in order to maintain our recorded reserve within a reasonable range of our actuary's central estimate.

Reinsurance |
Certain premiums and benefits at NCTIC are ceded to other insurance companies under various reinsurance agreements. The reinsurance agreements provide NCTIC with increased capacity to write more risk and maintain its exposure to loss within its capital resources. For the three - and nine -month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, NCTIC's reinsurance program consisted of excess of loss reinsurance treaties. The following is a summary of the reinsurance coverage:
Effective
January 1, 2025,
NCTIC entered into a per risk excess of loss reinsurance agreement that provides coverage of $
Effective
January 1, 2024,

NCTIC’s reinsured risks are treated, to the extent of reinsurance, as though they are risks for which the Company is
not
liable. However, NCTIC remains contingently liable in the event its reinsurers do
not
meet their obligations under these reinsurance contracts. NCTIC uses a broker to place its reinsurance through Lloyd’s syndicates, a group of underwriters who work together to provide insurance coverage for a variety of risks. Chaucer Syndicates Ltd. (“Chaucer Syndicates”) an
d Beazley Syndicate (“Beazley”)
are each

Statutory Reporting and Requirements |
NCTIC's assets, liabilities, and results of operations have been reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which varies from statutory accounting practices (“SAP”) prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities. Prescribed SAP are found in a variety of publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, state laws and regulations, as well as through general practices. The principal differences between SAP and U.S. GAAP are that under SAP: ( 1 ) certain assets that are not admitted assets are eliminated from the balance sheet, ( 2 ) a supplemental reserve for claims is charged directly to unassigned surplus rather than provision for claims under U.S. GAAP, and ( 3 ) differences may arise in the computation of deferred income taxes. The Company must file with applicable state insurance regulatory authorities an “Annual Statement” which reports, among other items, net income (loss) and stockholders' equity (called “surplus as regards policyholders” in statutory reporting).
NCTIC is subject to regulations and standards of the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation. These standards and regulations include a requirement that the insurance entities domiciled in the State of Florida maintain specified levels of statutory capital and restrict the timing and amount of dividends and other distributions that
may
be paid by the insurance entities to the parent company. As of
September 30, 2025

Segment Information |
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company changed its reportable segments to two reportable segments: (i) Title Insurance and (ii) Corporate and Other. This change in reportable segments reflects the changes in the business mix and the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker, Steven A. Hale II, Chief Executive Officer, monitors the performance of operations. The change in reportable segments had no impact on the Company’s historical consolidated financial positions, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported. Where applicable, all prior periods presented have been revised to conform to this new presentation. The measure of Company's segment performance is income before income taxes.
Title Insurance
Our title insurance segment issues title insurance policies and provides title agency services on residential and commercial real estate transactions. This segment also provides closing and/or escrow services to facilitate real estate transactions.
Corporate and Other
The Corporate and Other segment is comprised of activity previously presented in the Real Estate, Reinsurance and Management Advisory Services segments. Activity in the Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of management advisory services that the Company performs through its Services Agreement with HP Risk. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company provides certain managerial and operational services that include, but are not limited to: reinsurance brokerage services; the review and improvement of financial goals; compliance with legal and regulatory mandates; maintenance of an ethical business environment; investment and asset manager compliance; cash and equity management; corporate tax management; personnel management; related party transaction oversight; tax preparation administration; strategic capital modeling; the review of potential acquisitions and transactions involving affiliates and third parties, including but not limited to, renewal rights deals, loss portfolio transfers or entity acquisitions; execution of (or provision for the execution of) all general corporate legal matters; and provision of internal control management services.
The Corporate and Other segment also includes results of the Company's investment in a related party - HC Realty. HC Realty is an internally-managed REIT focused on acquiring, financing, owning and managing build-to-suit or renovate-to-suit, single-tenant properties leased primarily to the U.S. government and administered by the U.S. General Services Administration or directly by the federal government agencies or sub-agencies occupying such properties.

During the

months ended
September 30, 2025
, the Company recorded an additional valuation allowance of $
The Company maintains a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets that currently exceeds our deferred tax liabilities. The primary assets covered by this valuation allowance are net operating loss carryforwards. The valuation allowance was calculated in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes , which requires an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when measuring the need for a valuation allowance. The Company’s results over the most recent periods were heavily affected by business restructuring activities. The Company’s cumulative loss represented sufficient negative evidence to require a valuation allowance. The Company intends to maintain a valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of some or all of the valuation allowance, resulting in no deferred tax asset balance being recognized.
Income taxes provided in the accompanying statements of operations for the three - and nine -month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 differ from the income taxes at the statutory federal rate due primarily to the change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets during the period and due to state income taxes in jurisdictions without prior net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income.

Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to claims and lawsuits related to the normal course of business operations. When the Company determines that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability representing the best estimate of the Company’s financial exposure is recorded. Actual losses may materially differ from the Company’s estimates. With respect to our title insurance operations, this customary litigation includes but is not limited to a wide variety of cases arising out of or related to title and escrow claims, for which we make provisions through our loss reserves. See Note 5, Reserve for Title Claims, for further information. None of these claims and lawsuits, in management’s opinion, will have a material adverse effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Litigation
The Company’s subsidiaries are parties to legal actions incidental to their business. As of September 30, 2025 , management believed that the resolution of these matters would not materially affect our financial condition or results of operations.
ONF Litigation
During the third quarter of 2025, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, ONF, was included as a defendant in connection with litigation in the County Court in and for Lee County, Florida. ONF was served with the initial summons on October 2, 2025. The case, instituted by Delta Build Services, Inc., a sub-contractor who provided labor and supplies, and Gretchel De Los Milagros Castaneda-Vazquez, the purchaser of the property (collectively "Lee County Plaintiffs”), is a multi-count civil lawsuit filed against multiple parties, including the general contractor, its managers and managing members, ONF, a former employee of Delta Build Services,Inc., the buyer’s realtor and supervising broker . The single alleged count against ONF is a claim of negligence. Lee County Plaintiffs allege that ONF breached a duty of care owed to Lee County Plaintiffs by accepting an allegedly forged document at closing. ONF has retained outside counsel. The Company believes it is unlikely that the case will result in a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Omega Litigation
During the fourth quarter of 2024, Omega was served with litigation in the Circuit Court in and for Charlotte County, Florida. The case, instituted by ABL RPC Residential Credit Acquisition, LLC, is a mortgage foreclosure action filed against multiple parties including the borrower, the current UCC lien holder, the current owners of the collateralized properties, and unknown tenants of the properties (collectively "Charlotte County Defendants”). Two of the Charlotte County Defendants, 760 Anatalya Holding LLC and 562 Monaco Holding LLC (“Anatalya and Monaco”), through their majority owners, filed Affirmative Defenses and Counter Claims in the foreclosure action alleging a count of negligence against Omega and naming Omega as a Third-Party Defendant. Anatalya and Monaco allege that Omega was negligent in conducting the closing of the mortgage transaction when Omega allowed the Manager of Anatalya and Monaco to execute all documents on their behalf including deeds transferring the properties into the name of the borrowing entity. Omega has retained outside counsel. Though the procedural posture of the case has changed given amendments to the relevant complaint filed by Anatalya and Monaco, the Company continues to believe it is unlikely that the case will result in a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Citibank Foreclosure Against Unrelated Third Party
On May 13, 2024, the Company was served with a foreclosure action filed by Citibank, N.A., primarily against two individually named defendants. The Company was identified as a co-defendant in this matter as the Company has a recorded judgment against one of the primary defendants. The Company has retained outside counsel in this matter in efforts to preserve any claim the Company may have to said recorded judgment against the primary defendant. Given the posture of the litigation, management does not believe this matter will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Omega Employee Litigation
During the first quarter of 2024, Omega became involved in litigation in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. The case, instituted by a former Omega employee, alleges that the former employee was separated from Omega in a manner inconsistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Florida Civil Rights Act. Omega entered into a settlement agreement to resolve all counts against Omega effective March 28, 2025. The monetary amount conveyed under the settlement agreement did not result in a material adverse effect to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Leases |
Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to operating leases are recorded when the Company and its subsidiaries are party to a contract, which conveys the right for it to control an asset for a specified period of time. Substantially all of our operating lease arrangements relate to rented office space and real estate for our title operations. The Company is not a party to any material contracts considered finance leases. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recorded as Lease assets and Lease liabilities, respectively, on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company’s operating leases range in term from
one
to
five
years. As of
September 30, 2025
and
December 31, 2024,
the weighted-average remaining lease term of our operating leases was
The Company’s lease agreements do not contain material variable lease payments, buyout options, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.
Most of the Company’s leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term by varying amounts. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. We do not include options to renew in our measurement of lease assets and lease liabilities as they are not considered reasonably assured of exercise as of September 30, 2025 .
The lease liability is determined by discounting future lease payments using a discount rate based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate for similar collateralized borrowing. The discount rate is calculated using estimates of capitalization rates and borrowing rates. As of
September 30, 2025
and
December 31, 2024,

ITEM 2. Management ’ s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the notes thereto and the other unaudited financial data included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 27, 2025. The terms the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us” refer to HG Holdings, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, and unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in our accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this report are not based on historical facts, but are forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” "would," "intends" or “anticipates,” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. These statements reflect our reasonable judgment with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include the occurrence of events that negatively impact the Company’s liquidity in such a way as to limit or eliminate the Company’s ability to use its cash on hand to fund further asset acquisitions, an inability on the part of the Company to identify additional suitable businesses to acquire or develop, and the occurrence of events that negatively impact the title insurance operations of the Company’s subsidiaries and/or the business or assets of HC Realty and the value of our investment in HC Realty, such as HC Realty’s dependence on leases by the U.S. government and its agencies for substantially all of its revenues, and the risk that the U.S. government reduces its spending on real estate or that it changes its preference away from leased properties. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this filing and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new developments or otherwise.
Overview
For a description of our business, including descriptions of segments and recent business developments, see the discussion in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations – Description of the Business in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
As of September 30, 2025, our sources of income include earnings from our title insurance subsidiaries, management service fees and interest earned on invested assets. The Company believes that the revenue generated from these sources and cash on hand is sufficient to fund operating expenses for at least 12 months from the date of the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company will continue to pursue acquisition opportunities which will allow us to potentially derive benefit from the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and also create appropriate risk adjusted returns for stockholders.
Title Insurance Segment Trends and Conditions
Our title insurance segment revenue is closely related to the level of real estate activity, such as sales, mortgage financing and mortgage refinancing. Declines in the level of real estate activity or the average price of real estate sales will adversely affect our title insurance revenues. The industry as a whole saw declined levels in total real estate transactions in the last several years, largely due to higher mortgage interest rates. During its September and October 2025 meetings, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal funds rate by a total of 50 basis points to a current range of 3.75% to 4.00%; however, the ongoing political and market uncertainties have prevented the Federal Reserve from reducing the federal funds rate further, stalling any small improvements in real estate activity. While recent and potential future Federal Reserve rate decreases may positively impact the title insurance market, recent geopolitical uncertainties and federal government efforts have created elevated volatility in domestic and global arenas, making it challenging to forecast industry trends. Per the Mortga ge Bankers Association's (“MBA”) Mortgage Finance Forecast as of October 2025, interest rates on a Freddie Mac 30-year, fixed rate mortgage ave raged 6.8% in the first half of 2025 but are projected to decrease to 6.4% by the end of the year. Despite the Federal Reserve lowering the federal funds rate in 2024 and 2025, current interest rates remain at elevated levels compared to pre-2021 interest rates.
Because commercial real estate transactions tend to be generally driven by supply and demand for commercial space and occupancy rates in a particular area rather than by interest rate fluctuations, we believe that our commercial real estate title insurance business is less dependent on the industry cycles discussed above than our residential real estate title business. Commercial real estate transaction volume is also often linked to the availability of financing. Factors including U.S. tax reform and a shift in U.S. monetary policy have had, or are expected to have, varying effects on availability of financing in the U.S. Lower corporate and individual tax rates, and corporate tax-deductibility of capital expenditures have provided increased capacity and incentive for investments in commercial real estate.
Historically, real estate transactions have produced seasonal revenue fluctuations in the real estate industry. The first calendar quarter is typically the weakest quarter in terms of revenue due to the generally low volume of home sales during January and February. The second and third calendar quarters are typically the strongest quarters in terms of revenue, primarily due to a higher volume of residential transactions in the spring and summer months. The fourth quarter is typically strong due to the desire of commercial entities to complete transactions by year-end. Seasonality in recent years deviated from historical patterns due to COVID-19 and the subsequent rapid increase in interest rates. We have noted short-term fluctuations through recent years in resale and refinance transactions as a result of changes in interest rates.

Comparison of three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
The Company’s net title premiums written for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 were $1.9 million and $5.3 million, respectively, compared to net title premiums written for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 of $1.6 million and $4.7 million, respectively. The increase in net title premiums written for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the same periods of last year was due to higher volume of affiliated title business written. Escrow and other title fees revenue also increased by $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, and increased $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to higher volume of affiliated title business written during the third quarter of 2025.
Management fees increased to $1.5 million and $3.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to $0.8 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The increase was due to the new Services Agreement with HP Risk becoming effective June 1, 2025. HP Risk is a wholly-owned subsidiary of HP Holding Company, LLC, which, in turn, is wholly owned by certain affiliates of Steven A. Hale II, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which the Company is providing certain managerial and operational services to HP Risk for consideration from HP Risk of $6.0 million per year over the course of three years. Such services include, but are not limited to: reinsurance brokerage services; the review and improvement of financial goals; compliance with legal and regulatory mandates; maintenance of an ethical business environment; investment and asset manager compliance; cash and equity management; corporate tax management; personnel management; related party transaction oversight; tax preparation administration; strategic capital modeling; the review of potential acquisitions and transactions involving affiliates and third parties, including but not limited to, renewal rights deals, loss portfolio transfers or entity acquisitions; execution of (or provision for the execution of) all general corporate legal matters; and provision of internal control management services.
Total revenue was $4.1 mi llion and $ 3.1 million for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively, and $10.9 million and $8.9 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. The increase in revenue was primarily a result of the management fees derived from the Services Agreement with HP Risk and higher title affiliated business volume written in 2025 as compared to the prior year.
The Company’s cost of revenues consists primarily of a provision for title claim losses and underwriting expenses, which are largely comprised of commissions to unaffiliated title agencies. Cost of revenues for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 w as $0.03 million a nd $0.1 million, respectively. Cost of revenues for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $0.3 million. The decrease in cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the prior period, was attributable to positive prior year development on one title insurance claim. O riginal estimates of ultimate loss exposures are decreased or increased as additional information becomes known during the adjustment process regarding individual claims.
The Company’s operating expenses primarily consist of general and administrative expenses such as personnel expenses, office and technology expenses, and professional fees. Operating expenses increased $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to three months ended September 30, 2024, and $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to higher legal and professional fees related to transactions described in Note 3, Significant Transactions , in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as an increase in employee health and benefit costs in 2025 as compared to 2024.
Other income, net primarily consists of net interest income, dividend income, change in the net asset value of investment in limited partnership as well as changes in value and distributions from our related party investments. Other income, net was $0.5 million fo r the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, compared to Other income, net of $0.4 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024. The increase in Other income was primarily a result of higher distributions from related parties fo r the three-month period ende d September 30, 2025 of $196,000, as compared to $75,000 distributed during the t hree-month period ended September 30, 2024. Other income, net was $1.2 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.9 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. The increase in Other income was primarily driven by higher distributions from related parties for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 of $681,000, as compared to $275,000 distributed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 , as well as lower impairment taken on the Company's investments in HC Common Stock and HC Series B Stock of $41,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 as compared to impairment of $241,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. Offsetting this increase is the reduction of dividends as HC Realty did not declare or pay dividends on HC Common Stock or HC Series B Stock during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 , compared to $0.3 million of dividends declared on the HC Series B Stock for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 .
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of liquidity include cash on hand, earnings from our title insurance subsidiaries, management service fees and interest earned on invested assets. At September 30, 2025, we had $10.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and an a d ditional $10.6 million in res tricted cash, substantially all of which is cash held in escrow for title insurance transactions. A portion of our unrestricted and restricted cash is currently held in savings accounts earning interest at approximately 4 .1% annually. Historically, we also received discretionary dividends on our HC Common Stock and HC Series B Stock at annual dividend rates of approximately 0.4% and 10%, respectively. No dividends have been declared on HC Common Stock and HC Series B Stock since the first quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into the Services Agreement with HP Risk under which the Company earns a management advisory fee of $6.0 million per year over the course o f three years. We believe that the sources stated above will be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for the foreseeable future, and we do not anticipate a need to raise funds from sources other than those described above within the next 12 months, even if no dividends are declared on HC Common Stock and HC Series B Stock within the next 12 months.

Cash flows provided by operating activities differ from net income (loss) due to adjustments for non-cash items , such as gains and losses on investments, the timing of disbursements for taxes, claims and other accrued liabilities, and collections or changes in receivables and other assets. Net cash provided by operating activities of $3.2 million differs from operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase of $2.3 million in escrow liabilities on the title insurance subsidiaries. Net cash provided by operating activities of $5.0 million differs from operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $5.0 million in escrow liabilities on the title insurance subsidiaries.
Cash flows provided by investing activities include effects of purchases of investments and proceeds from sales or maturities of investments. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, the Company's fixed-income portfolio has matured, resulting in $1.0 million in proceeds. Additionally, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, the Company received proceeds from its investments in limited partnership of $0.4 million and provided additional contributions to related parties of $0.3 million. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company purchased $0.7 million and received proceeds of $0.2 million from its investments in limited partnerships, as well as redeemed $1.1 million of fixed income securities.
Cash flows used in financing activities include share repurchases and effects of changes in noncontrolling interest. Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 of $3.9 million consisted of $4.0 million of repurchases of common stock, partially offse t by $51,000 in ne t contributions from non-controlling interest shareholders. Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 of $0.4 million consisted of $0.2 million of repurchases of common stock and $0.1 million of distributions to non-controlling interest shareholders.
Non-cash Transactions
Additionally, during the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into an Assignment and Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with the certain assignors listed therein (the “Assignors”), pursuant to which the Assignors agreed to assign and contribute to the Company an aggregate of 10,203 shares of common stock, no par value ("ACMAT Common Stock"), and 291,656 shares of Class A stock, no par value ("ACMAT Class A Stock"), of ACMAT Corporation (“ACMAT”), a Connecticut corporation, and, in consideration of and exchange therefor, the Company agreed to issue to the Assignors an aggregate of 2,899,876 shares of Company common stock, contingent upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Services Agreement. After giving effect to the transactions pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Company owns approximately 39.1% of the outstanding equity of ACMAT and approximately 10.4% of the voting power of ACMAT, based on ACMAT's outstanding equity as of August 5, 2025. Holders of ACMAT Class A Stock are entitled to one-tenth vote per share in relation to ACMAT Common Stock, holders of which are entitled to one vote per share, with respect to matters subject to approval by ACMAT stockholders. ACMAT, through its subsidiaries, offers surety bonds for prime, sub-prime, specialty trade, environmental, asbestos and lead abatement contractors and miscellaneous obligations nationwide. ACMAT also provides other miscellaneous surety such as workers’ compensation bonds, supply bonds, subdivision bonds, and license and permit bonds.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to us, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and we necessarily were required to apply our judgment in evaluating whether the benefits of the controls and procedures that we adopt outweigh their costs.
As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, an evaluation as of September 30, 2025 was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2025, were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
