NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Travelers Companies, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the Company). These financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are unaudited. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, but that is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been omitted. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the Company’s 2024 Annual Report).

The preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and claims and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. To the extent that the Company changes its accounting for, or presentation of, items in the financial statements, the presentation of such amounts in prior periods is changed to conform to the current period presentation, if appropriate, and disclosed, if material.

On May 27, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its Canadian personal insurance business and the majority of its Canadian commercial insurance business to Definity Financial Corporation for approximately US$ 2.4 billion. The Company will retain its surety business in Canada. The sale is subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued updated guidance on the accounting for internal-use software costs. The updated guidance removes all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods and allows for the application of iterative software development methods such as agile. The updated guidance requires that an entity capitalize software costs when both: 1) management has authorized and committed to the funding of the software project, and 2) it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform its intended function. Additionally, the updated guidance clarifies that internal and external training costs and maintenance costs must be expensed as incurred.

The updated guidance is effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2028, and can be applied on a prospective, modified, or retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.

Enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted a budget reconciliation package known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (OBBBA) which includes both tax and non-tax provisions. The changes resulting from the tax provisions in OBBBA are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

2. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Nature of Operations

The Company’s results are reported in the following three business segments — Business Insurance, Bond & Specialty Insurance and Personal Insurance. These segments reflect the manner in which the Company’s businesses are currently managed and represent an aggregation of products and services based on the type of customer, how the business is marketed and the manner in which risks are underwritten. For more information regarding the Company’s nature of operations, see the “Nature of Operations ” section of note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Total net impairment charges, including credit impairments, reported in net realized investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statement of income were $ 0 million and $ 5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $ 2 million and $ 8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Credit losses related to the fixed maturity portfolio for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 represented less than 1 % of the fixed maturity portfolio on a pre-tax basis and less than 1 % of shareholders’ equity on an after-tax basis.

Other Investments

Included in other investments are private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and typically report their financial statement information to the Company one month to three months following the end of the reporting period. Accordingly, net investment income from these other investments is generally reflected in the Company’s financial statements on a quarter lag basis.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s estimates of fair value for financial assets and financial liabilities are based on the framework established in the fair value accounting guidance. The framework is based on the inputs used in valuation, gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and requires that observable inputs be used in the valuations when available. The disclosure of fair value estimates in the fair value accounting guidance hierarchy is based on whether the significant inputs into the valuation are observable. In determining the level of the hierarchy in which the estimate is disclosed, the highest priority is given to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s significant market assumptions. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is reported is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the hierarchy are as follows:

• Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

• Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, default rates, loss severities, etc.) or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• Level 3 - Valuations based on models where significant inputs are not observable. The unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use.

Valuation of Investments Reported at Fair Value in Financial Statements

The Company utilized a pricing service to estimate fair value measurements for approximately 99 % of its fixed maturities as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

While the vast majority of the Company’s fixed maturities are included in Level 2, the Company holds a number of corporate bonds which are not valued by the pricing service and estimates the fair value of these bonds using either another internal pricing matrix, a present value income approach or a broker quote (collectively, the other methodologies). The other methodologies include some unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation. Due to the limited amount of observable market information available in the estimation of fair value, the Company includes the fair value estimates for bonds that are valued using the other methodologies in Level 3.

For certain investments in non-public common and preferred equity securities, the fair value estimate is determined either internally or by an external fund manager based on the impact of recent observable transactions on the investment, recent filings, operating results, balance sheet stability, growth and other business and market sector fundamentals. Due to the significant unobservable inputs in these valuations, the Company included the fair value estimate of $ 31 million and $ 37 million for these investments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, in the amounts disclosed in Level 3.

For more information regarding the valuation of the Company’s fixed maturities, equity securities and other investments, see note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Gross claims and claim adjustment expense reserves as of September 30, 2025 increased by $ 3.61 billion from December 31, 2024, primarily reflecting the impacts of (i) catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2025, (ii) higher volumes of insured exposures and (iii) loss cost trends for the current accident year, partially offset by (iv) claim payments made during the first nine months of 2025 and (v) net favorable prior year reserve development.

Prior Year Reserve Development

The following disclosures regarding reserve development are on a “net of reinsurance” basis.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, estimated claims and claim adjustment expenses incurred included $ 648 million and $ 321 million, respectively, of net favorable development for claims arising in prior years, including $ 715 million and $ 447 million, respectively, of net favorable prior year reserve development, and $ 32 million and $ 33 million, respectively, of accretion of discount.

Business Insurance.

Net unfavorable prior year reserve development in the third quarter of 2024 totaled $ 91 million, primarily driven by an addition to asbestos reserves of $ 242 million, partially offset by better than expected loss experience in the workers’ compensation product line for multiple accident years.

Net favorable prior year reserve development in the first nine months of 2025 totaled $ 28 million, primarily driven by better than expected loss experience in the workers’ compensation product line for multiple accident years, partially offset by an addition to reserves related to run-off operations, including an addition to asbestos reserves of $ 277 million. Net unfavorable prior year reserve development in the first nine months of 2024 totaled $ 57 million, primarily driven by (i) higher than expected loss experience in the general liability product line (excluding asbestos) for recent accident years, (ii) an addition to asbestos reserves of $ 242 million and (iii) an addition to reserves related to run-off operations, partially offset by (iv) better than expected loss experience in the workers’ compensation product line for multiple accident years.

Bond & Specialty Insurance. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 totaled $ 43 million and $ 191 million, respectively, primarily driven by better than expected loss experience in the fidelity and surety product line for recent accident years.

14. LEASES

The Company enters into lease agreements for real estate that is primarily used for office space in the ordinary course of business. These leases are accounted for as operating leases, whereby lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, and a right-of-use asset and lease liability is recognized as part of other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheet.

Most leases include an option to extend or renew the lease term. The exercise of the renewal option is at the Company’s discretion. The operating lease liability includes lease payments related to options to extend or renew the lease term if the Company is reasonably certain of exercising those options. The Company, in determining the present value of lease payments, utilizes either the rate implicit in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable, or the Company’s incremental secured borrowing rate commensurate with the term of the underlying lease.

Lease expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Additional information regarding the Company’s real estate operating leases is as follows:

(1) Leases with a term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

(2) Sublease income consists of rent from third parties of office space and is recognized as part of other revenues in the consolidated statement of income.

15. CONTINGENCIES, COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES

Contingencies

The major pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject are described below.

Asbestos Claims and Litigation

In the ordinary course of its insurance business, the Company has received and continues to receive claims for insurance arising under policies issued by the Company asserting alleged injuries and damages from asbestos-related exposures that are the subject of related coverage litigation. The Company is defending asbestos-related litigation vigorously and believes that it has meritorious defenses; however, the outcomes of these disputes are uncertain. In this regard, the Company employs dedicated specialists and comprehensive resolution strategies to manage asbestos loss exposure, including settling litigation under appropriate circumstances. Currently, it is not possible to predict legal outcomes and their impact on future loss development for claims and litigation relating to asbestos claims. Any such development could be affected by future court decisions and interpretations, as well as future changes, if any, in applicable legislation. Because of these uncertainties, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in excess of the Company’s current insurance reserves. In addition, the Company’s estimate of ultimate

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited), Continued

15. CONTINGENCIES, COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES, Continued

claims and claim adjustment expenses may change. These additional liabilities or changes in estimates, or a range of either, cannot now be reasonably estimated and could result in income statement charges that could be material to the Company’s results of operations in future periods.

Other Proceedings Not Arising Under Insurance Contracts or Reinsurance Agreements

The Company is involved in other lawsuits, including lawsuits alleging extra-contractual damages relating to insurance contracts or reinsurance agreements, that do not arise under insurance contracts or reinsurance agreements. The legal costs associated with such lawsuits are expensed in the period in which the costs are incurred. Based upon currently available information, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that any such lawsuit or related lawsuits would be material to the Company’s results of operations or would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity.

Other Commitments and Guarantees

Commitments

Investment Commitments — The Company has unfunded commitments to private equity limited partnerships, real estate partnerships and other investments. These commitments totaled $ 1.37 billion and $ 1.49 billion as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Guarantees

The maximum amount of the Company’s contingent obligation for indemnifications related to the sale of businesses that are quantifiable was $ 352 million as of September 30, 2025.

The maximum amount of the Company’s obligation related to the guarantee of certain insurance policy obligations of a former insurance subsidiary was $ 480 million as of September 30, 2025, all of which is indemnified by a third party. For more information regarding the Company’s guarantees, see note 17 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

16. NONCASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Company issued common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 in connection with its stock compensation plan which resulted in noncash financing transactions totaling $ 43 million and $ 32 million, respectively, from the net share settlement of employee stock options. In an unrelated transaction, the Company received a beneficial interest totaling $ 32 million in a noncash investing activity related to the restructuring of the Massachusetts Property Insurance Underwriting Association, a FAIR Plan, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For additional information, see note 18 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report. There were no other material noncash investing or financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

The following discussions of the Company’s net income and segment income are presented on an after-tax basis. Discussions of the components of net income and segment income are presented on a pre-tax basis, unless otherwise noted. Discussions of net income per common share are presented on a diluted basis.

Overview

Diluted net income per share of $8.24 in the third quarter of 2025 increased by 52% over diluted net income per share of $5.42 in the same period of 2024. Net income of $1.89 billion in the third quarter of 2025 increased by 50% over net income of $1.26 billion in the same period of 2024. The higher rate of increase in diluted net income per share reflected the impact of share repurchases in recent periods. The increase in income before income taxes in the third quarter of 2025 primarily reflected the pre-tax impacts of (i) lower catastrophe losses, (ii) higher underwriting margins excluding catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (“underlying underwriting margins”) and (iii) higher net investment income, partially offset by (iv) lower net favorable prior year reserve development and (v) lower net realized investment gains. Catastrophe losses in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 were $402 million and $939 million, respectively. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 was $22 million and $126 million, respectively. Underlying underwriting margins in the third quarter of 2025 were higher in all three segments. Income tax expense in the third quarter of 2025 was higher than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting the impact of the increase in income before income taxes.

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

Diluted net income per share of $16.45 in the first nine months of 2025 increased by 31% over diluted net income per share of $12.51 in the same period of 2024. Net income of $3.79 billion in the first nine months of 2025 increased by 30% over net income of $2.92 billion in the same period of 2024. The higher rate of increase in diluted net income per share reflected the impact of share repurchases in recent periods. The increase in income before income taxes primarily reflected the pre-tax impacts of (i) higher underlying underwriting margins, (ii) higher net investment income and (iii) higher net favorable prior year reserve development, partially offset by (iv) higher catastrophe losses and (v) net realized investment losses compared to net realized investment gains in the same period of 2024. Catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 were $3.60 billion and $3.16 billion, respectively. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was $715 million and $447 million, respectively. The higher underlying underwriting margins in the first nine months of 2025 were driven by Personal Insurance and Business Insurance, partially offset by Bond & Specialty Insurance. Income tax expense in the first nine months of 2025 was higher than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting the impact of the increase in income before income taxes.

The Company has insurance operations in Canada, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland and throughout other parts of the world as a corporate member of Lloyd’s, as well as in Brazil through a joint venture. Because these operations are conducted in local currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the Company is subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, changes in foreign currency exchange rates impacted reported line items in the statement of income by insignificant amounts. The impact of these changes was not material to the Company’s net income or segment income for the periods reported.

Revenues

Earned Premiums

Earned premiums in the third quarter of 2025 were $11.14 billion, $431 million or 4% higher than in the same period of 2024. Earned premiums in the first nine months of 2025 were $32.77 billion, $1.69 billion or 5% higher than in the same period of 2024. In Business Insurance, earned premiums in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 increased by 4% and 6%, respectively, over the same periods of 2024. In Bond & Specialty Insurance, earned premiums in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 increased by 3% and 4%, respectively, over the same periods of 2024. In Personal Insurance, earned premiums in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 increased by 4% and 5%, respectively, over the same periods of 2024. Factors contributing to the changes in earned premiums in each segment are discussed in more detail in the segment discussions that follow.

Net Investment Income

The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s investments.


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
(dollars in millions)	2025			2024			2025			2024

_________________________________________________________

(1) Excludes net unrealized investment gains and losses and reflects cash, receivables for investment sales, payables on investment purchases and accrued investment income.

(2) Excludes net realized and net unrealized investment gains and losses.

Net investment income in the third quarter of 2025 was $1.03 billion, $129 million or 14% higher than in the same period of 2024. Net investment income in the first nine months of 2025 was $2.91 billion, $270 million or 10% higher than in the same period of 2024. Net investment income from fixed maturity investments in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 was $874 million and $2.52 billion, respectively, $125 million and $369 million higher, respectively, than in the same periods of 2024. The increases in both periods of 2025 primarily resulted from a higher average level of fixed maturity investments and higher long-term average yields. Net investment income from short-term securities in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 was $73 million and $185 million, respectively, $4 million and $32 million lower, respectively, than in the same periods of 2024. The decreases in both periods of 2025 primarily resulted from lower short-term average yields, partially offset by a higher average level of short-term securities. The Company’s remaining investment portfolios had net investment income of $101 million in the third quarter of 2025, $11 million higher than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting higher private

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

equity partnership returns. The Company’s remaining investment portfolios had net investment income of $244 million in the first nine months of 2025, $62 million lower than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting lower private equity partnership returns. Included in other investments are private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and typically report their financial statement information to the Company one month to three months following the end of the reporting period. Accordingly, net investment income from these other investments is generally reflected in the Company’s financial statements on a quarter lag basis.

Fee Income

Fee income in the third quarter of 2025 was $127 million, $6 million higher than in the same period of 2024. Fee income in the first nine months of 2025 was $370 million, $25 million higher than in the same period of 2024. The National Accounts market in Business Insurance is the primary source of the Company’s fee-based business and is discussed in the Business Insurance segment discussion that follows.

Net Realized Investment Gains (Losses)

The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s net realized investment gains (losses).


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions)	2025		2024		2025		2024
Impairment gains (losses):
Fixed maturities	$	—	$	(5)	$	(2)	$	(8)

Net realized investment gains (losses) on equity securities still held	40		51		41		102
Other net realized investment gains (losses), including from sales	(13)		9		(67)		(69)
Total	$	27	$	55	$	(28)	$	25

Net realized investment gains on equity securities still held of $40 million and $41 million, respectively, in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 were driven by the impact of changes in fair value attributable to favorable equity markets. Net realized investment gains on equity securities still held of $51 million and $102 million, respectively, in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 were driven by the impact of changes in fair value attributable to favorable equity markets.

Other Revenues

Other revenues in the third quarter of 2025 were $148 million, $28 million higher than in the same period of 2024. Other revenues in the first nine months of 2025 were $383 million, $46 million higher than in the same period of 2024. Other revenues include revenues from Simply Business, installment premium charges and other policyholder service charges.

Claims and Expenses

Claims and Claim Adjustment Expenses

Claims and claim adjustment expenses in the third quarter of 2025 were $6.59 billion, $402 million or 6% lower than in the same period of 2024, driven by (i) lower catastrophe losses in all three segments and (ii) lower losses in Personal Insurance, partially offset by (iii) loss cost trends in all three segments, (iv) lower net favorable prior year reserve development and (v) higher business volumes in Business Insurance and Bond & Specialty Insurance. Catastrophe losses in the third quarter of 2025 primarily resulted from severe wind and hail storms in multiple states. Catastrophe losses in the third quarter of 2024 primarily resulted from Hurricane Helene and severe wind and hail storms in multiple states.

Claims and claim adjustment expenses in the first nine months of 2025 were $21.39 billion, $364 million or 2% higher than in the same period of 2024, driven by (i) higher catastrophe losses in Personal Insurance and Business Insurance, partially offset by lower catastrophe losses in Bond & Specialty Insurance, (ii) loss cost trends in all three segments and (iii) higher business volumes in Business Insurance and Bond & Specialty Insurance, partially offset by (iv) higher net favorable prior year reserve development in all three segments and (v) lower losses in Personal Insurance. Catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2025 included the third quarter events described above, as well as the January 2025 California wildfires and severe wind and hail storms in multiple states in the first six months of 2025. Catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2024 included the third quarter events described above, as well as numerous severe wind and hail storms in multiple states in the first six months of 2024.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

Factors contributing to net prior year reserve development during the third quarters and first nine months of 2025 and 2024 are discussed in more detail in note 7 of the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Significant Catastrophe Losses

The following table presents the amount of losses recorded by the Company for significant catastrophes that occurred in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the amount of net unfavorable (favorable) prior year reserve development recognized in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 for significant catastrophes that occurred in 2024 and 2023, and the estimate of ultimate losses for those catastrophes at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. For purposes of the table, a significant catastrophe is an event for which the Company estimates its ultimate losses will be $100 million or more after reinsurance and before taxes. The Company’s threshold for disclosing catastrophes is primarily determined at the reportable segment level and for 2025 ranged from $20 million to $30 million of losses before reinsurance and taxes. For the Company’s definition of a catastrophe, refer to “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations— Consolidated Overview” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Overview

Segment income in the third quarter of 2025 was $807 million, $423 million or 110% higher than segment income of $384 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in segment income before income taxes was driven by the pre-tax impacts of (i) lower catastrophe losses, (ii) higher underlying underwriting margins and (iii) higher net investment income, partially offset by (iv) lower net favorable prior year reserve development. Catastrophe losses in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 were $263 million and $595 million, respectively. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 was $104 million and $181 million, respectively. The higher underlying underwriting margins primarily reflected the impacts of (i) lower losses in the automobile product line, (ii) the benefit of earned pricing in the homeowners and other product line, (iii) higher business volumes and (iv) lower non-catastrophe weather-related losses in the homeowners and other product line. Income tax expense in the third quarter of 2025 was higher than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting the impact of the increase in segment income before income taxes.

Segment income in the first nine months of 2025 was $967 million, $516 million or 114% higher than segment income of $451 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in segment income before income taxes was driven by the pre-tax impacts of (i) higher underlying underwriting margins, (ii) higher net favorable prior year reserve development and (iii) higher net investment income, partially offset by (iv) higher catastrophe losses. Catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 were $2.56 billion and $2.17 billion, respectively. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was $496 million and $420 million, respectively. The higher underlying underwriting margins primarily reflected the impacts of (i) the benefit of earned pricing, (ii) lower losses in the automobile product line, (iii) higher business volumes and (iv) lower non-catastrophe weather-related and non-weather losses in the homeowners and other product line. Income tax expense in the first nine months of 2025 was higher than in the same period of 2024, primarily reflecting the impact of the increase in segment income before income taxes.

ASBESTOS CLAIMS AND LITIGATION

The Company believes that the property and casualty insurance industry has suffered from court decisions and other trends that have expanded insurance coverage for asbestos claims far beyond the original intent of insurers and policyholders. The Company has received and continues to receive a significant number of asbestos claims. Factors underlying these claim filings include continued intensive advertising by lawyers seeking asbestos claimants and the focus by plaintiffs on defendants, such as manufacturers of talcum powder, who were not traditionally sued and/or primary targets of asbestos litigation. Many defendants have also been subject to increased settlement demands, in part due to the bankruptcy of many traditional primary targets of asbestos litigation. Currently, in many jurisdictions, those who allege very serious injury and who can present credible medical evidence of their injuries are receiving priority trial settings in the courts, while those who have not shown any credible disease manifestation are having their hearing dates delayed or placed on an inactive docket. Prioritizing claims involving credible evidence of injuries, along with the focus on defendants who were not traditionally primary targets of asbestos litigation, contributes to the claims and claim adjustment expense payment patterns experienced by the Company. The Company’s asbestos-related claims and claim adjustment expense experience also has been impacted by the unavailability of other insurance sources potentially available to policyholders, whether through exhaustion of policy limits or through the insolvency of other participating insurers.

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

The Company continues to be involved in disputes, including litigation, with a number of policyholders, some of whom are in bankruptcy, over coverage for asbestos-related claims. Many coverage disputes with policyholders are only resolved through settlement agreements. Because many policyholders make exaggerated demands, it is difficult to predict the outcome of settlement negotiations. Settlements involving bankrupt policyholders may include extensive releases which are favorable to the Company, but which could result in settlements for larger amounts than originally anticipated. Although the Company has seen a reduction in the overall risk associated with these disputes, it remains difficult to predict the ultimate cost of these claims. As in the past, the Company will continue to pursue settlement opportunities.

In addition to claims against policyholders, proceedings have been launched directly against insurers, including the Company, by individuals challenging insurers’ conduct with respect to the handling of past asbestos claims and by individuals seeking damages arising from alleged asbestos-related bodily injuries. It is possible that other direct action s against insurers, including the Company, could be filed in the future. It is difficult to predict the outcome of these proceedings, including whether the plaintiffs would be able to sustain these actions against insurers based on novel legal theories of liability. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to any such claims and has received favorable rulings in certain jurisdictions.

Because each policyholder presents different liability and coverage issues, the Company generally reviews the exposure presented by each policyholder with open claims at least annually. Among the factors the Company may consider in the course of this review are: available insurance coverage, including the role of any umbrella or excess insurance the Company has issued to the policyholder; limits and deductibles; an analysis of the policyholder’s potential liability, including as a result of the bankruptcy of other defendants; the jurisdictions involved, including any trends, judicial rulings or legislative ac tions in those jurisdictions; past and anticipated future claim activity and loss development on pending claims; past settlement values of similar claims; allocated claim adjustment expense; the potential role of other insurance; the role, if any, of non-asbestos claims or potential non-asbestos claims in any resolution process; and applicable coverage defenses or determinations, if any, including the determination as to whether or not an asbestos claim is a products/completed operation claim subject to an aggregate limit and the available coverage, if any, for that claim.

The Company also reviews its asbestos reserves quarterly. These reviews include, as appropriate, an analysis of exposure and claim payment patterns by policyholder, as well as recent settlements, policyholder bankruptcies, judicial rulings and legislative actions. The Company also analyzes developing payment patterns among policyholders and the assumed reinsurance component of reserves, as well as projected reinsurance billings and recoveries. In addition, the Company reviews its historical gross and net loss and expense paid experience, year-by-year, to assess any emerging trends, fluctuations, or characteristics suggested by the aggregate paid activity. Conventional actuarial methods are not utilized to establish asbestos reserves, and the Company’s evaluations have not resulted in a reliable method to determine a meaningful average asbestos defense or indemnity payment.

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company completed its annual in-depth asbestos claim review, including a review of policyholders with open claims and litigation cases for potential product and “non-product” liability. While the latest available government data continue to reflect a declining trend in deaths caused by mesothelioma, the number of policyholders with open asbestos claims was relatively flat compared to 2024. Net asbestos payments were down compared to 2024, as described below. Payments on behalf of these policyholders continue to be influenced by the factors described above, including an increase in severity for certain policyholders and a high level of litigation activity in a limited number of jurisdictions where individuals alleging serious asbestos-related injury, primarily mesothelioma, continue to target defendants who were not traditionally sued and/or primary targets of asbestos litigation. The completion of the analyses described above and the annual review in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 resulted in $277 million and $242 million increases, respectively, to the Company’s net asbestos reserves. In both 2025 and 2024, the reserve increases were primarily driven by increases in the Company’s estimate of projected settlement and defense costs related to a broad number of policyholders. The increase in the estimate of projected settlement and defense costs primarily resulted from payment trends that continue to be higher than previously anticipated due to the continued high level of mesothelioma claim filings and the impact of the current litigation environment surrounding those claims discussed above.

Over the past decade, the property and casualty insurance industry, including the Company, has experienced net unfavorable prior year reserve development with regard to asbestos reserves, but the Company believes that over that period there has been a reduction in the volatility associated with the Company’s overall asbestos exposure as the overall asbestos environment has evolved from one dominated by exposure to significant litigation risks, particularly coverage disputes relating to policyholders in bankruptcy who were asserting that their claims were not subject to the aggregate limits contained in their policies, to an environment primarily driven by a frequency of litigation related to individuals with mesothelioma. The Company’s overall view of the current underlying asbestos environment is essentially unchanged from recent periods, and there remains a high degree of uncertainty with respect to future exposure to asbestos claims.

UNCERTAINTY REGARDING ADEQUACY OF ASBESTOS RESERVES

As a result of the processes and procedures discussed above, management believes that the reserves carried for asbestos claims are appropriately established based upon known facts, current law and management’s judgment. However, the uncertainties surrounding the final resolution of these claims continue, and it is difficult to determine the ultimate exposure for asbestos claims and related litigation. As a result, these reserves are subject to revision as new information becomes available and as claims develop. The continuing uncertainties include, without limitation:

• the risks and lack of predictability inherent in complex litigation;

• a further increase in the cost to resolve, and/or the number of, asbestos claims beyond that which is anticipated;

• the emergence of a greater number of asbestos claims than anticipated as a result of extended life expectancies resulting from medical advances and lifestyle improvements;

• the role of any umbrella or excess policies we have issued;

• the resolution or adjudication of disputes concerning coverage for asbestos claims in a manner inconsistent with our previous assessment of these disputes;

• the number and outcome of direct actions against us;

• future developments pertaining to our ability to recover reinsurance for asbestos claims;

• any impact on asbestos defendants we insure due to the bankruptcy of other asbestos defendants;

• the unavailability of other insurance sources potentially available to policyholders, whether through exhaustion of policy limits or through the insolvency of other participating insurers; and

• uncertainties arising from the insolvency or bankruptcy of policyholders.

Changes in the legal, regulatory and legislative environment may impact the future resolution of asbestos claims and result in adverse loss reserve development. The emergence of a greater number of asbestos claims beyond that which is anticipated may result in adverse loss reserve development. Changes in applicable legislation and future court and regulatory decisions and

interpretations, including the outcome of legal challenges to legislative and/or judicial reforms establishing medical criteria for the pursuit of asbestos claims, could affect the settlement of asbestos claims. It is also difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of complex coverage disputes until settlement negotiations near completion and significant legal questions are resolved or, failing settlement, until the dispute is adjudicated. This is particularly the case with policyholders in bankruptcy where negotiations often involve a large number of claimants and other parties and require court approval to be effective. As part of its continuing analysis of asbestos reserves, the Company continues to study the implications of these and other developments.

Because of the uncertainties set forth above, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in excess of the Company’s current reserves. In addition, the Company’s estimate of claims and claim adjustment expenses may change. These additional liabilities or increases in estimates, or a range of either, cannot now be reasonably estimated and could result in income statement charges that could be material to the Company’s operating results in future periods.

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

The Company’s invested assets as of September 30, 2025 were $103.68 billion, of which 94% was invested in fixed maturity and short-term investments, 1% in equity securities, 1% in real estate investments and 4% in other investments. Because the primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to fund future claims payments, the Company employs a thoughtful investment philosophy that focuses on appropriate risk-adjusted returns. A significant majority of funds available for investment are deployed in a widely diversified portfolio of high quality, liquid, taxable U.S. government, tax-exempt and taxable U.S. municipal and taxable corporate and U.S. agency mortgage-backed bonds.

The carrying value of the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio as of September 30, 2025 was $91.11 billion. The Company closely monitors the duration of its fixed maturity investments, and investment purchases and sales are executed with the objective of having adequate funds available to satisfy the Company’s insurance and debt obligations. The weighted average credit quality of the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio was “Aa2” as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The weighted average credit quality of the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio, excluding U.S. Treasury securities, was “Aa3” and “Aa2” as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Below investment grade securities represented 1.2% of the total fixed maturity investment portfolio as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The weighted average effective duration of fixed maturities and short-term securities was 4.6 (4.9 excluding short-term securities) as of September 30, 2025 and 4.3 (4.5 excluding short-term securities) as of December 31, 2024.

Obligations of U.S. States, Municipalities and Political Subdivisions

The Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 included $30.30 billion and $27.19 billion, respectively, of securities which are obligations of U.S. states, municipalities and political subdivisions (collectively referred to as the municipal bond portfolio). The municipal bond portfolio is diversified across the United States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and includes general obligation and revenue bonds issued by states, cities, counties, school districts and similar issuers. Included in the municipal bond portfolio as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $326 million and $572 million, respectively, of pre-refunded bonds, which are bonds for which U.S. states or municipalities have established irrevocable trusts, almost exclusively comprised of U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government and government agencies and authorities. These trusts were created to fund the payment of principal and interest due under the bonds. The irrevocable trusts are verified as to their sufficiency by an independent verification agent of the underwriter, issuer or trustee. All of the Company’s holdings of securities issued by Puerto Rico and related entities have either been pre-refunded and therefore are defeased by U.S. Treasury securities or have FHA guarantees subject to federal appropriation.

The Company bases its investment decision on the underlying credit characteristics of the municipal security. The weighted average credit rating of the municipal bond portfolio was “Aaa/Aa1” as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Mortgage-Backed Securities, Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Pass-Through Securities

The Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 included $13.36 billion and $12.61 billion, respectively, of residential mortgage-backed securities, including pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), all of which are subject to prepayment risk (either shortening or lengthening of duration). While prepayment risk for securities and its effect on income cannot be fully controlled, particularly when interest rates move dramatically, the Company’s inv estment strategy generally favors securities that reduce this risk within expected interest rate ranges. Included in the totals as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $10.33 billion and $9.93 billion, respectively, of GNMA, FNMA, FHLMC (excluding FHA project loans) and Canadian government guaranteed residential mortgage-backed pass-through securities classified as available for sale. Also included in those totals were residential CMOs

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

classified as available for sale with a fair value of $3.03 billion and $2.68 billion as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Approximately 44% and 43% of the Company’s CMO holdings as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, were guaranteed by or fully collateralized by securities issued by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC. The weighted average credit rating of the $1.68 billion and $1.53 billion of non-guaranteed CMO holdings was “Aaa” as of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The weighted average credit rating of all of the above securities was “Aa1” and “Aaa/Aa1 ” as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For further discussion regarding the Company’s investments in residential CMOs, see “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Investment Portfolio” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Equity Securities, Real Estate and Short-Term Investments

See note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report for further information about these invested asset classes.

Other Investments

The Company also invests in private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships, and joint ventures. These asset classes have historically provided a higher return than investments in fixed maturities but are subject to more volatility. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying value of the Company’s other investments was $4.19 billion and $4.20 billion, respectively.

Investments in private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting typically report their financial statement information to the Company one month to three months following the end of the reporting period. Accordingly, net investment income from these other i nvestments is generally reflected in the Company’s financial statements on a quarter lag basis.

CATASTROPHE REINSURANCE COVERAGE

The Company’s normal renewals and changes to its catastrophe reinsurance coverage occur in January and July each year. The changes effective in January are discussed in the “Catastrophe Reinsurance” section of “Part I—Item 1—Business” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report, and changes effective in July are discussed in the “Catastrophe Reinsurance Coverage” section of “Part I—Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

The Company regularly reviews its catastrophe reinsurance coverage and may adjust such coverage in the future.

REINSURANCE RECOVERABLES

The Company reinsures a portion of the risks it underwrites in order to control its exposure to losses. For a description of the Company’s reinsurance recoverables, refer to “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Reinsurance Recoverables” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

The following table summarizes the composition of the Company’s reinsurance recoverables:


(in millions)	September 30, 2025		December 31, 2024
Gross reinsurance recoverables on paid and unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses	$	4,447	$	3,962
Gross structured settlements	2,546		2,626
Mandatory pools and associations	1,446		1,531
Gross reinsurance recoverables	8,439		8,119
Allowance for estimated uncollectible reinsurance	(141)		(119)
Net reinsurance recoverables	$	8,298	$	8,000

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

OUTLOOK

The following discussion provides outlook information for certain key drivers of the Company’s results of operations and capital position.

Premiums. The Company’s earned premiums are a function of net written premium volume. Net written premiums comprise both renewal business and new business and are recognized as earned premium over the term of the underlying policies. When business renews, the amount of net written premiums associated with that business may increase or decrease (renewal premium change) as a result of increases or decreases in rate and/or insured exposures, which the Company considers as a measure of units of exposure (such as the number and value of vehicles or properties insured). Net written premiums from both renewal and new business, and therefore earned premiums, are impacted by competitive market conditions as well as general economic conditions, which, particularly in the case of Business Insurance, affect audit premium adjustments, policy endorsements and mid-term cancellations. Net written premiums may also be impacted by the structure of reinsurance programs and related costs, as well as changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Overall, the Company expects that retention levels (the amount of expiring premium that renews, before the impact of renewal premium changes) will remain strong by historical standards during the remainder of 2025.

Property and casualty insurance market conditions are expected to remain competitive during the remainder of 2025 for new business. In each of the Company’s business segments, new business generally has less of an impact on underwriting profitability than renewal business, given the volume of new business relative to renewal business. However, in periods of meaningful increases in new business, despite its positive impact on underwriting gains over time, the impact of higher new business levels may negatively impact the combined ratio for a period of time. In periods of meaningful decreases in new business, despite its negative impact on underwriting gains over time, the impact of lower new business levels may positively impact the combined ratio for a period of time.

Effective January 1, 2025, the Company renewed a quota share reinsurance agreement with subsidiaries of Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited (Fidelis) for 2025 pursuant to which the Company assumes 20% of the subject gross written premiums of Fidelis on a risk-attaching basis, subject to a loss ratio cap. The Company’s portion of premiums from Fidelis is reported as part of the International results of Business Insurance. The Company also has a minority investment in Fidelis.

Underwriting Gain/Loss. The Company’s underwriting gain/loss can be significantly impacted by catastrophe losses and net favorable or unfavorable prior year reserve development, as well as underlying underwriting margins. Underlying underwriting margins can be impacted by a number of factors, including variability in non-catastrophe weather, large loss and other loss activity; changes in current period loss estimates resulting from prior period loss development; changes in loss cost trends; changes in business mix; changes in reinsurance coverages and/or costs; premium adjustments; and variability in expenses and assessments.

Catastrophe losses and non-catastrophe weather-related losses are inherently unpredictable from period to period. The Company’s results of operations could be adversely impacted if significant catastrophe and non-catastrophe weather-related losses were to occur.

On average for the ten-year period ended December 31, 2024, the Company experienced approximately 38% of its annual catastrophe losses during the second quarter, primarily arising out of severe wind and hail storms, including tornadoes. Hurricanes, wildfires and winter storms tend to happen at other times of the year and can also have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. Catastrophe losses incurred in a particular quarter in any given year may differ materially from historical experience. In addition, most of the Company’s reinsurance programs renew on January 1 or July 1 of each year, and, therefore, any changes to the availability, cost or coverage terms of such programs will be effective after such dates.

Over much of the past decade, the Company’s results have included significant amounts of net favorable prior year reserve development driven by better than expected loss experience. However, given the inherent uncertainty in estimating claims and claim adjustment expense reserves, loss experience could develop such that the Company recognizes in future periods higher or lower levels of favorable prior year reserve development, no favorable prior year reserve development or unfavorable prior year reserve development. In addition, the ongoing review of prior year claims and claim adjustment expense reserves, or other changes in current period circumstances, may result in the Company revising current year loss estimates upward or downward in future periods of the current year.

It is possible that changes in economic conditions, the supply chain, international trade, including the impact of tariffs, the labor market and geopolitical tensions, as well as steps taken by federal, state and/or local governments and the Federal Reserve

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

could lead to higher or lower inflation than the Company anticipated, which could in turn lead to an increase or decrease in the Company’s loss costs and the need to strengthen or reduce claims and claim adjustment expense reserves. These impacts of inflation on loss costs and claims and claim adjustment expense reserves could be more pronounced for those lines of business that require a relatively longer period of time to finalize and settle claims for a given accident year and, accordingly, are relatively more inflation sensitive. Higher costs of labor, parts and raw materials adversely impacted severity in recent years in our personal and commercial businesses. Tariff and immigration policy could continue to impact severity. For a further discussion, see “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors—If actual claims exceed our claims and claim adjustment expense reserves, or if changes in the estimated level of claims and claim adjustment expense reserves are necessary, including as a result of, among other things, changes in the legal/tort, regulatory and economic environments in which the Company operates, our financial results could be materially and adversely affected” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

The Company’s results of operations may be impacted by a number of other factors, including an economic slowdown, a recession, financial market volatility, a continued shutdown of the U.S. government, monetary and fiscal policy measures, heightened geopolitical tensions, fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, the political and regulatory environment, changes to the U.S. Federal budget and potential changes in tax laws.

Investment Portfolio. The Company expects to continue to focus its investment strategy on maintaining a high-quality investment portfolio and a relatively short average effective duration. The weighted average effective duration of fixed maturities and short-term securities was 4.6 (4.9 excluding short-term securities) as of September 30, 2025. From time to time, the Company enters into short positions in U.S. Treasury futures contracts to manage the duration of its fixed maturity portfolio. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no open U.S. Treasury futures contracts. The Company regularly evaluates its investment alternatives and mix. Currently, the majority of the Company’s investments are comprised of a widely diversified portfolio of high-quality, liquid, taxable U.S. government, tax-exempt and taxable U.S. municipal, taxable corporate and U.S. agency mortgage-backed bonds.

The Company also invests much smaller amounts in equity securities, real estate and private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships, and joint ventures. These investment classes have the potential for higher returns but also the potential for greater volatility and higher degrees of risk, including less stable rates of return and less liquidity.

Approximately 30% of the fixed maturity portfolio is expected to mature over the next three years (including the early redemption of bonds, assuming interest rates (including credit spreads) do not rise significantly by applicable call dates). As a result, the overall yield on and composition of its portfolio could be meaningfully impacted by the types of investments available for reinvestment with the proceeds of maturing bonds.

Net investment income is a material contributor to the Company’s results of operations. Based on the Company’s current expectations for the impact of expected higher reinvestment yields on the Company’s fixed income investments and higher levels of fixed income investments, the Company expects that after-tax net investment income from that portfolio will be approximately $810 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, and the Company also currently expects that after-tax net investment income from that portfolio will be approximately $810 million in the first quarter of 2026 and growing to approximately $885 million in the fourth quarter of 2026. This expectation could be impacted by the direction of interest rates and disruptions in global financial markets. Included in other investments are private equity, hedge fund and real estate partnerships that are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and typically report their financial statement information to the Company one month to three months following the end of the reporting period. Accordingly, net investment income or loss from these other investments is generally reflected in the Company’s financial statements on a quarter lag basis. The Company’s net investment income in future periods from its non-fixed income investment portfolio will be impacted, positively or negatively, by the performance of global financial markets.

The Company had net pre-tax realized investment losses of $28 million in the first nine months of 2025. Changes in global financial markets could result in net realized investment gains or losses in the Company’s investment portfolio.

The Company had a net pre-tax unrealized investment loss of $2.48 billion ($1.97 billion after-tax) in its fixed maturity investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025, compared to $4.61 billion ($3.64 billion after-tax) as of December 31, 2024. The net unrealized investment loss is primarily due to the impact of movements in interest rates. The decrease in the net unrealized investment loss in the first nine months of 2025 was due to decreases in interest rates. While the Company does not attempt to predict future interest rate movements, a rising interest rate environment reduces the market value of fixed maturity investments and, therefore, reduces shareholders’ equity, and a declining interest rate environment has the opposite effects. The net unrealized loss discussed above is considered temporary in nature as it is not due to credit impairments, there is no impact on expected contractual cash flows from fixed maturities, and the Company generally holds its fixed maturity investments to maturity. In addition, given the temporary nature of net unrealized losses combined with the Company’s strong operating cash

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

flows (which include income received on investments and the proceeds received upon maturity of the investments), the net unrealized investment loss is not expected to meaningfully impact the Company’s assessment of capital adequacy or liquidity. Equity securities, which include common and non-redeemable preferred stocks, are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income.

Additionally, disruptions in global financial markets could also impact the market value of the Company’s investment portfolio. The Company’s investment portfolio has benefited from certain tax exemptions (primarily those related to interest from municipal bonds) and certain other tax laws, including, but not limited to, those governing dividends-received deductions and tax credits (such as foreign tax credits). Changes in these laws could adversely impact the value of the Company’s investment portfolio. See “Our businesses are heavily regulated by the states and countries in which we conduct business, including licensing, market conduct and financial supervision, and changes in regulation, including changes in tax regulation, may reduce our profitability and limit our growth” included in “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

For further discussion of the Company’s investment portfolio, see “Investment Portfolio.” For a discussion of the risks to the Company’s business during or following a financial market disruption and risks to the Company’s investment portfolio, see the risk factors entitled “During or following a period of financial market disruption or an economic downturn, our business could be materially and adversely affected” and “Our investment portfolio is subject to credit and interest rate risk, and may suffer reduced or low returns or material realized or unrealized losses” included in “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report. For a discussion of the risks to the Company’s investments from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, see the risk factor entitled “We are subject to additional risks associated with our business outside the United States” included in “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report and see “Part II—Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk-Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Capital Position . The Company believes it has a strong capital position and, as part of its ongoing efforts to create shareholder value, expects to continue to return capital not needed to support its business operations to its shareholders, subject to the considerations described below. The Company expects that, generally over time, the combination of dividends to common shareholders and common share repurchases will likely not exceed net income. The Company also expects that to the extent that it continues to grow premium volumes, the level of capital to support the Company’s financial strength ratings will also increase, and accordingly, the amount of capital returned to shareholders relative to earnings would be somewhat less than it otherwise would have been absent the growth in premium volumes. Given the Company’s very strong capital position and earnings over the past four quarters, the Company currently expects to repurchase approximately $2.9 billion of the Company's common shares in the aggregate over the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. Included in this amount is $700 million of the net cash proceeds from the expected sale of the Company’s Canadian insurance business (excluding surety) to Definity Financial Corporation. The Canadian sale transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of additional factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, share price, catastrophe losses, maintaining capital levels appropriate for the Company’s business operations, changes in levels of written premiums, funding of the Company’s qualified pension plan, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, other investment opportunities (including mergers and acquisitions and related financings), market conditions, changes in tax laws, the timing of the closing of the Canadian sale transaction and other factors. For information regarding the Company’s common share repurchases in 2025, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” herein.

As a result of the Company’s business outside of the United States, primarily in Canada, the United Kingdom (including Lloyd’s), the Republic of Ireland and in Brazil through a joint venture, the Company’s capital is also subject to the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Strengthening of the U.S. dollar in comparison to other currencies could result in a reduction in shareholders’ equity, while a weakening of the U.S. dollar in comparison to other currencies could result in an increase in shareholders’ equity. For additional discussion of the Company’s foreign exchange market risk exposure, see “Part II—Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

On May 27, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its Canadian personal insurance business and the majority of its Canadian commercial insurance business to Definity Financial Corporation for approximately US$2.4 billion. The Company will retain its surety business in Canada. The sale is subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions, and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026.

Many of the statements in this “Outlook” section and in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” are forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond the Company’s control. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Further, such forward-looking

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

statements speak only as of the date of this report and the Company undertakes no obligation to update them. See “Part II—Item 7—Forward-Looking Statements.” For a discussion of potential risks and uncertainties that could impact the Company’s results of operations or financial position, see “Part I—Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” herein and “Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors” and “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report, in each case as updated by the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of its business operations and to satisfy general corporate purposes when needed.

Operating Company Liquidity. The liquidity requirements of the Company’s insurance subsidiaries are met primarily by funds generated from premiums, fees, income received on investments and investment maturities. The Company believes that cash flows from operating activities are sufficient to meet the future liquidity requirements of its insurance subsidiaries. Additionally, investment maturities provide a significant level of available liquidity without requiring the sale of investment securities. For further discussion of operating company liquidity, see “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

Holding Company Liquidity . TRV’s liquidity requirements primarily include shareholder dividends, debt servicing, common share repurchases and, from time to time, contributions to its qualified domestic pension plan. As of September 30, 2025, TRV held total cash and short-term invested assets in the United States aggregating $2.84 billion and having a weighted average maturity of 23 days. TRV has established a holding company liquidity target equal to its estimated annual pre-tax interest expense and common shareholder dividends (currently approximately $1.42 billion). TRV’s holding company liquidity of $2.84 billion as of September 30, 2025 exceeded this target, and it is the opinion of the Company’s management that these assets are sufficient to meet TRV’s current liquidity requirements.

TRV is not dependent on dividends or other forms of repatriation from its foreign operations to support its liquidity needs. The undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign operations are intended to be permanently reinvested in those operations, and such earnings were not material to the Company’s financial position or liquidity as of September 30, 2025.

TRV has a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that expires on June 4, 2028 which permits it to issue securities from time to time. TRV also has a $1.0 billion credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions that expires on June 15, 2027. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $100 million of commercial paper outstanding. TRV is not reliant on its commercial paper program to meet its operating cash flow needs. The Company has no senior notes or junior subordinated debentures maturing until April 2026, at which time $200 million of senior notes will mature.

The Company utilized uncollateralized letters of credit issued by major banks with an aggregate limit of $260 million to provide a portion of the capital needed to support its obligations at Lloyd’s as of September 30, 2025. If uncollateralized letters of credit are not available at a reasonable price or at all in the future, the Company can collateralize these letters of credit or may have to seek alternative means of supporting its obligations at Lloyd’s, which could include utilizing holding company funds on hand.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was $7.92 billion and $7.01 billion, respectively. The increase in cash flows in the first nine months of 2025 primarily reflected the impacts of higher levels of cash received for premiums, partially offset by higher levels of payments for claims and claim adjustment expenses.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was $7.08 billion and $5.57 billion, respectively. The Company’s consolidated total investments as of September 30, 2025 increased by $9.46 billion, or 10%, over year-end 2024, primarily reflecting the impacts of (i) net cash flows provided by operating activities and (ii) lower net unrealized investment losses due to the impact of lower interest rates during the first nine months of 2025, partially offset by (iii) net cash used in financing activities.

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

The Company’s investment portfolio is managed to support its insurance operations; accordingly, the portfolio is positioned to meet obligations to policyholders. As such, the primary goals of the Company’s asset-liability management process are to satisfy the insurance liabilities and maintain sufficient liquidity to cover fluctuations in projected liability cash flows. Generally, the expected principal and interest payments produced by the Company’s fixed maturity portfolio adequately fund the estimated runoff of the Company’s insurance reserves. Although this is not an exact cash flow match in each period, the substantial amount by which the market value of the fixed maturity portfolio exceeds the value of the net insurance liabilities, as well as the positive cash flow from newly sold policies and the large amount of high quality liquid bonds, contributes to the Company’s ability to fund claim payments without having to sell assets at a loss or access credit facilities.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was $835 million and $1.33 billion, respectively. The totals in both 2025 and 2024 reflected common share repurchases and dividends paid to shareholders, partially offset by the net proceeds from employee stock option exercises. Common share repurchases in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 were $1.49 billion and $859 million, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of 2025 also included the receipt of net proceeds from the issuance of debt.

Dividends . Dividends paid to shareholders were $737 million and $711 million in the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of the Company’s common stock will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints and other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant. Dividends will be paid by the Company only if declared by its Board of Directors out of funds legally available, subject to any other restrictions that may be applicable to the Company. On October 16, 2025, the Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $1.10 per share, payable December 31, 2025 to shareholders of record on December 10, 2025.

Share Repurchases . The Company’s Board of Directors has approved common share repurchase authorizations under which repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in private transactions or otherwise. The authorizations do not have a stated expiration date. The Company expects that, generally over time, the combination of dividends to common shareholders and common share repurchases will likely not exceed net income. The Company also expects that to the extent that it continues to grow premium volumes, the amount of capital returned to shareholders relative to earnings would be somewhat less than it otherwise would have been absent the growth in premium volumes. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, share price, catastrophe losses, maintaining capital levels appropriate for the Company’s business operations, changes in levels of written premiums, funding of the Company’s qualified pension plan, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, other investment opportunities (including mergers and acquisitions and related financings), market conditions, changes in tax laws and other factors. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 2.3 million and 5.1 million common shares, respectively, under its share repurchase authorizations for a total cost of $625 million and $1.38 billion, respectively. The average cost per share repurchased was $271.76 and $268.28, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $3.67 billion of capacity remaining under its share repurchase authorizations. Included in the cost of treasury stock acquired pursuant to common share repurchases is the 1% excise tax imposed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Capital Resources . Capital resources reflect the overall financial strength of the Company and its ability to borrow funds at competitive rates and raise new capital to meet its needs. The following table summarizes the components of the Company’s capital structure as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Total shareholders’ equity	31,609		27,864
Total capitalization	$	40,876	$	35,897

On July 24, 2025, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.05% senior notes that will mature on July 24, 2035 and $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.70% senior notes that will mature on July 24, 2055. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the notes for general corporate purposes, including to retire the Company’s 7.75% senior notes, which will mature on April 15, 2026, and which have an aggregate principal amount outstanding of $200 million. See note 9 of the notes to the unaudited financial statements for further discussion regarding the terms of the senior notes.

The following table provides a reconciliation of total capitalization presented in the foregoing table to total capitalization excluding net unrealized losses on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity.


(dollars in millions)	September 30, 2025			December 31, 2024
Total capitalization	$	40,876		$	35,897
Less: net unrealized losses on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity	(1,970)			(3,640)
Total capitalization excluding net unrealized losses on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity	$	42,846		$	39,537
Debt-to-total capital ratio	22.7		%	22.4		%
Debt-to-total capital ratio excluding net unrealized losses on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity	21.6		%	20.3		%

The debt-to-total capital ratio excluding net unrealized gains (losses) on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity, is calculated by dividing (a) debt by (b) total capitalization excluding net unrealized gains and losses on investments, net of taxes, included in shareholders’ equity. Net unrealized gains and losses on investments can be significantly impacted by both interest rate movements and other economic factors. Accordingly, in the opinion of the Company’s management, the debt-to-total capital ratio calculated on this basis provides another useful metric for investors to understand the Company’s financial leverage position. The Company’s ratio of debt-to-total capital excluding after-tax net unrealized investment losses included in shareholders’ equity of 21.6% as of September 30, 2025 was within the Company’s target range of 15% to 25%.

RATINGS

Ratings are an important factor in assessing the Company’s competitive position in the insurance industry. The Company receives ratings from the following major rating agencies: A.M. Best Company (A.M. Best), Fitch Ratings (Fitch), Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) and S&P Global Ratings (S&P). The following rating agency action was taken with respect to the Company since July 17, 2025, the date on which the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was filed with the SEC. For additional discussion of ratings, see “Part I —Item 1—Business—Ratings” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report.

• On August 8, 2025, A.M. Best affirmed all ratings of the Company. The outlook for all ratings is stable.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Continued

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

For a description of the Company’s critical accounting estimates, refer to “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Estimates” in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report. The Company considers its most significant accounting estimates to be those applied to claims and claim adjustment expense reserves and related reinsurance recoverables, and impairments of investments, goodwill and other intangible assets. Except as shown in the table below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates since December 31, 2024.

Claims and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves

The table below displays the Company’s gross claims and claim adjustment expense reserves by product line. Because establishment of claims and claim adjustment expense reserves is an inherently uncertain process involving estimates and the application of judgment, currently established claims and claim adjustment expense reserves may change. The Company reflects adjustments to the reserves in the results of operations in the period the estimates are changed. These changes in estimates could result in income statement charges that could be material to the Company’s operating results in future periods. In particular, a portion of the Company’s gross claims and claim adjustment expense reserves (totaling $1.80 billion as of September 30, 2025) are for asbestos claims and related litigation. Asbestos reserves are included in the General liability, Commercial multi-peril and International and other lines in the summary table below. While the ongoing review of asbestos claims and associated liabilities considers the inconsistencies of court decisions as to coverage, plaintiffs’ expanded theories of liability and the risks inherent in complex litigation and other uncertainties, in the opinion of the Company’s management, it is possible that the outcome of the continued uncertainties regarding these claims could result in liability in future periods that differs from current insurance reserves by an amount that could be material to the Company’s future operating results. Asbestos reserves are discussed separately; see “Asbestos Claims and Litigation” and “Uncertainty Regarding Adequacy of Asbestos Reserves” in this report.

Gross claims and claim adjustment expense reserves by product line were as follows:


	September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
(in millions)	Case		IBNR		Total		Case		IBNR		Total
General liability	$	6,024	$	12,595	$	18,619	$	5,845	$	11,349	$	17,194
Commercial property	1,300		573		1,873		1,384		342		1,726
Commercial multi-peril	3,275		3,765		7,040		3,015		3,438		6,453
Commercial automobile	2,875		3,521		6,396		2,749		3,195		5,944
Workers’ compensation	10,094		8,499		18,593		9,980		8,749		18,729
Fidelity and surety	154		689		843		210		571		781

International and other	2,678		3,055		5,733		2,561		2,726		5,287
Property-casualty	30,333		37,368		67,701		29,297		34,791		64,088

Claims and claim adjustment expense reserves	$	30,337	$	37,368	$	67,705	$	29,302	$	34,791	$	64,093

The $3.61 billion increase in gross claims and claim adjustment expense reserves since December 31, 2024 primarily reflected the impacts of (i) catastrophe losses in the first nine months of 2025, (ii) higher volumes of insured exposures and (iii) loss cost trends for the current accident year, partially offset by (iv) claim payments made during the first nine months of 2025 and (v) net favorable prior year reserve development.

FUTURE APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See note 1 of the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report and in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains, and management may make, certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, may be forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “likely,” “probably,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “views,” “ensures,” “estimates” and similar expressions are used to identify these forward-looking statements. These statements include, among other things, the Company’s statements about:

• the Company’s outlook, the impact of trends on its business and its future results of operations and financial condition (including, among other things, anticipated premium volume, premium rates, renewal premium changes, underwriting margins and underlying underwriting margins, net and core income, investment income and performance, loss costs, return on equity, core return on equity and expected current returns, and combined ratios and underlying combined ratios);

• the impact of legislative or regulatory actions or court decisions;

• share repurchase plans;

• future pension plan contributions;

• the sufficiency of the Company’s reserves, including asbestos;

• the impact of emerging claims issues as well as other insurance and non-insurance litigation;

• the cost and availability of reinsurance coverage;

• catastrophe losses and modeling, including statements about probabilities or likelihood of exceedance;

• the impact of investment (including changes in interest rates), economic (including inflation, the impact of tariffs, changes in tax laws, changes in commodity prices and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates) and underwriting market conditions;

• the Company’s approach to managing its investment portfolio;

• the impact of changing climate conditions;

• strategic and operational initiatives to improve growth, profitability and competitiveness;

• the Company’s competitive advantages and innovation agenda, including executing on that agenda with respect to artificial intelligence;

• the Company’s cybersecurity policies and practices;

• new product offerings;

• the impact of developments in the tort environment, such as increased attorney involvement in insurance claims;

• the impact of developments in the geopolitical environment;

• the impact of a continued shutdown of the U.S. government; and

• the sale of our Canadian personal insurance business and the majority of our Canadian commercial insurance business, including with respect to the expected closing of the transaction, use of proceeds, including share repurchases, and financial impact of the sale.

The Company cautions investors that such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the Company’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements.

Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to, the following:

Insurance-Related Risks

• high levels of catastrophe losses, including as a result of factors such as increased concentrations of insured exposures in catastrophe-prone areas and changing climate conditions, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, its financial position and/or liquidity, and could adversely impact the Company’s ratings, the Company’s ability to raise capital and the availability and cost of reinsurance;

• if actual claims exceed the Company’s claims and claim adjustment expense reserves, if changes in the estimated level of claims and claim adjustment expense reserves are necessary, or if the Company is unable to offset increases in loss costs with sufficient price increases, including as a result of, among other things, changes in the legal/tort, regulatory and economic environments in which the Company operates, including increased inflation and the impact of tariffs, the Company’s financial results could be materially and adversely affected;

• the Company’s business could be harmed because of its continued exposure to asbestos and environmental claims and related litigation;

• the Company is exposed to, and may face adverse developments involving, mass tort claims such as those relating to exposure to potentially harmful products or substances; and

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, Continued

• the effects of emerging claim and coverage issues on the Company’s business are uncertain, and court decisions or legislative changes that take place after the Company issues its policies can result in an unexpected increase in the number of claims and have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations and/or the Company’s financial position.

Financial, Economic and Credit Risks

• during or following a period of financial market disruption or an economic downturn, the Company’s business could be materially and adversely affected;

• the Company’s investment portfolio is subject to credit and interest rate risk, and may suffer reduced or low returns or material realized or unrealized losses;

• the Company may not be able to collect all amounts due to it from reinsurers, reinsurance coverage may not be available to the Company in the future at commercially reasonable rates or at all and the Company is exposed to credit risk related to its structured settlements;

• the Company is exposed to credit risk in certain of its insurance operations and with respect to certain guarantee or indemnification arrangements that it has with third parties;

• a downgrade in the Company’s claims-paying and financial strength ratings could adversely impact the Company’s business volumes, adversely impact the Company’s ability to access the capital markets and increase the Company’s borrowing costs; and

• the inability of the Company’s insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company’s holding company in sufficient amounts would harm the Company’s ability to meet its obligations, pay future shareholder dividends and/or make future share repurchases.

Business and Operational Risks

• the intense competition that the Company faces, including with respect to attracting and retaining employees, and the impact of innovation, technological change, including with respect to artificial intelligence, and changing customer preferences on the insurance industry and the markets in which it operates, could harm its ability to maintain or increase its business volumes and its profitability;

• disruptions to the Company’s relationships with its independent agents and brokers or the Company’s inability to manage effectively a changing distribution landscape could adversely affect the Company;

• the Company’s efforts to develop new products or services, expand in targeted markets, improve business processes and workflows or make acquisitions may not be successful and may create enhanced risks;

• the Company may be adversely affected if its pricing and capital models provide materially different indications than actual results;

• loss of or significant restrictions on the use of particular types of underwriting criteria, such as credit scoring, or other data or methodologies, in the pricing and underwriting of the Company’s products could reduce the Company’s future profitability;

• the Company is subject to additional risks associated with its business outside the United States;

• future pandemics (including new variants of COVID-19) could materially affect the Company’s results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity; and

• the sale of our Canadian insurance business (excluding surety) to Definity Financial Corporation is subject to closing conditions, including obtaining required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, and may not occur.

Technology and Intellectual Property Risks

• if, as a result of cyber attacks (the risk of which could be exacerbated by geopolitical tensions) or otherwise, the Company experiences difficulties with technology, data and network security, outsourcing relationships or cloud-based technology, the Company’s ability to conduct its business could be negatively impacted;

• the Company’s business success and profitability depend, in part, on effective information technology systems and on continuing to develop and implement improvements in technology, including with respect to artificial intelligence, particularly as its business processes become more digital; and

• intellectual property is important to the Company’s business, and the Company may be unable to protect and enforce its own intellectual property or the Company may be subject to claims for infringing the intellectual property of others.

THE TRAVELERS COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS, Continued

Regulatory and Compliance Risks

• the Company’s businesses are heavily regulated by the states and countries in which it conducts business, including licensing, market conduct and financial supervision, and changes in regulation, including changes in tax regulation, may reduce the Company’s profitability and limit its growth; and

• the Company could be adversely affected if its controls designed to ensure compliance with guidelines, policies and legal and regulatory standards are not effective.

In addition, the Company’s share repurchase plans depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, share price, catastrophe losses, maintaining capital levels appropriate for the Company’s business operations, changes in levels of written premiums, funding of the Company’s qualified pension plan, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, other investment opportunities (including mergers and acquisitions and related financings), market conditions, changes in tax laws and other factors.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2025. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

In addition, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Company regularly seeks to identify, develop, and implement improvements to its technology systems and business processes, some of which may affect its internal control over financial reporting. These changes may include activities such as implementing new, more efficient systems, updating existing systems or platforms, automating manual processes, or utilizing technology developed by third parties. These systems changes are often phased in over multiple periods in order to limit the

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved common share repurchase authorizations under which repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, in private transactions or otherwise. The most recent authorization was approved by the Board of Directors on April 19, 2023 and added $5.0 billion of repurchase capacity to the $1.60 billion of capacity remaining at that date. The authorizations do not have a stated expiration date. The timing and actual number of shares to be repurchased in the future will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, share price, catastrophe losses, maintaining capital levels appropriate for the Company’s business operations, changes in levels of written premiums, funding of the Company’s qualified pension plan, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, other investment opportunities (including mergers and acquisitions and related financings), market conditions, changes in tax laws and other factors.
