Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing the consolidated financial position and results of operations of The Allstate Corporation (referred to in this document as “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” or “Allstate”). It should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto found under Part I. Item 1. contained herein, and with the discussion, analysis, consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Part I. Item 1. and Part II. Item 7. and Item 8. of The Allstate Corporation annual report on Form 10-K for 2024, filed February 24, 2025.
Further analysis of our insurance segments is provided in the Property-Liability Operations and Segment Results sections, including Allstate Protection, Run-off Property-Liability, Protection Services and Allstate Health and Benefits, of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”). The segments are consistent with the way in which the chief operating decision maker reviews financial performance and makes decisions about the allocation of resources.
Measuring segment profit or loss
The measure of segment profit or loss used in evaluating performance is underwriting income for the Allstate Protection and Run-off Property-Liability segments and adjusted net income for the Protection Services, Allstate Health and Benefits and Corporate and Other segments. We use these measures in our evaluation of results of operations to analyze profitability.
Underwriting income is calculated as premiums earned and other revenue, less claims and claims expense (“losses”), amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), operating costs and expenses, amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles and restructuring and related charges, as determined using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Adjusted net income (loss) is net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, excluding:
• Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives
• Pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses
• Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles
• Gain or loss on disposition
• Adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items, when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, or (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years
• Income tax expense or benefit on reconciling items
Macroeconomic impacts
Macroeconomic factors have and may continue to impact the results of our operations, financial condition and liquidity, such as U.S. government fiscal and monetary policies, conflict in the Middle East, the
Russia/Ukraine conflict, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages.
Tariffs Beginning on April 2, 2025, the U.S. government announced additional tariffs on goods imported to the U.S. These actions are expected to impact the results of our operations. Depending on the severity of these actions, the following may impact operations:
• Higher new and used vehicle pricing, increasing claims costs in Allstate Protection, Protection Plans and Dealer Services
• Adverse impact on investment valuations on fixed income securities, equity securities and performance-based investments
• Declines in auto new issued applications due to lower car sales
• Reduced demand in Allstate Dealer Services due to lower new car sales
• Lower premiums written from reduced retail sales in Allstate Protection Plans
• Bad debt and credit allowance exposure
This is not inclusive of all potential impacts and should not be treated as such.
Corporate strategy
Our strategy has two components: increase personal property-liability market share and expand protection offerings by leveraging the Allstate brand, customer base and capabilities.
Transformative Growth is about creating a business model, capabilities and culture that continually transform to better serve customers. This is done by providing affordable, simple and connected protection through multiple distribution methods. The ultimate objective is to enhance customer value to drive growth in all businesses.
In the personal property-liability businesses, this has five key components:
• Improving customer value
• Expanding customer access
• Increasing sophistication and investment in customer acquisition
• Deploying new technology ecosystems
• Driving organizational transformation
We are expanding Protection Services businesses by leveraging the Allstate brand, customer base and capabilities.
Dispositions
On August 13, 2024, we entered into a share purchase agreement with StanCorp Financial Group, Inc. to sell American Heritage Life Insurance Company and American Heritage Service Company, comprising our employer voluntary benefits (“EVB”) business for approximately $2.0 billion in cash. The employer
First Quarter 2025 Form 10-Q 43
voluntary benefits business continues to be reported in the Allstate Health and Benefits segment, and the assets and liabilities of the business are classified as held for sale. The transaction closed on April 1, 2025, and we expect to record a gain on the sale of approximately $625 million in the second quarter of 2025.
On January 30, 2025, Allstate entered into an agreement with Nationwide Life Insurance Company to sell Direct General Life Insurance Company, NSM Sales Corporation and The Association Benefits Solution, LLC, comprising the group health business for approximately $1.25 billion in cash, adjusted for the closing balance sheet. The group health business continues to be reported in the Allstate Health and Benefits segment, and beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the assets and liabilities of the business are classified as held for sale. The transaction is expected
to close in 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
The transaction price for the group health business, less costs to sell, exceeds the carrying value of net assets related to this transaction, resulting in an expected gain of approximately $450 million that will be recognized at closing of the transaction. The ultimate amount of the anticipated gain on the sale will be impacted by purchase price adjustments associated with certain pre-close transactions, changes in the carrying value of net assets, changes in accumulated other comprehensive income and the related tax effects.
See Note 3 of the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on the employer voluntary benefits and group health dispositions.
Consolidated net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders
($ in millions)
Consolidated net income applicable to common shareholders decreased 52.4% to $566 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher catastrophe and realized capital losses.
Total revenues
($ in millions)
Total revenues increased 7.8% to $16.45 billion in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to premium rate increases and higher homeowners insurance policies in force.
Net investment income
($ in millions)
Net investment income increased $90 million to $854 million in the first quarter of 2025, due to higher market-based investment results.
Financial highlights
Investments totaled $74.05 billion as of March 31, 2025, increasing from $72.61 billion as of December 31, 2024.
Allstate shareholders’ equity was $22.06 billion as of March 31, 2025, increasing from $21.44 billion as of December 31, 2024, primarily due to net income and lower unrealized net capital losses on investments, partially offset by dividends to shareholders.

Book value per diluted common share (ratio of Allstate common shareholders’ equity to total common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares outstanding) was $74.61 as of March 31, 2025, an increase of 19.8% from $62.27 as of March 31, 2024, and an increase of 3.1% from $72.35 as of December 31, 2024.
Return on average Allstate common shareholders’ equity for the twelve months ended March 31, 2025, was 21.4%, an increase of 13.8 points from 7.6% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher net income applicable to common shareholders for the trailing twelve-month period ending March 31, 2025.

Segment highlights
Allstate Protection underwriting income was $364 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $903 million in the first quarter of 2024, due to higher catastrophe losses, partially offset by increased premiums earned.
Catastrophe losses were $2.20 billion in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $731 million in the first quarter of 2024.
Premiums written increased 8.5% to $14.30 billion in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, reflecting higher premiums in auto and homeowners insurance and higher homeowners insurance policies in force.
Protection Services adjusted net income was $55 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $54 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to premium growth at Allstate Protection Plans, partially offset by higher expenses due to growth at Arity and higher loss costs at Dealer Services.
Premiums and other revenue increased 14.6% to $799 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, primarily due to growth at Allstate Protection Plans and higher lead generation revenue at Arity.
Allstate Health and Benefits adjusted net income was $30 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to adjusted net income of $56 million in the first quarter of 2024. The decline was primarily due to increased benefit utilization in group health and individual health, partially offset by lower benefit utilization and expenses in employer voluntary benefits.
Premiums and contract charges increased 1.9% to $487 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, primarily due to growth in individual health and group health, partially offset by a decline in employer voluntary benefits.

Property-Liability Operations
Property-Liability Operations
Overview Property-Liability operations consist of two reportable segments: Allstate Protection and Run-off Property-Liability. These segments are consistent with the groupings of financial information that management uses to evaluate performance and to determine the allocation of resources.
We do not allocate Property-Liability investment income, net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, or assets to the Allstate Protection and Run-off Property-Liability segments. Management reviews assets at the Property-Liability level for decision-making purposes.
GAAP operating ratios are used to measure our profitability to enhance an investor’s understanding of our financial results and are calculated as follows:
• Loss ratio: the ratio of claims and claims expense (loss adjustment expenses), to premiums earned. Loss ratios include the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year reserve reestimates.
• Expense ratio: the ratio of amortization of DAC, operating costs and expenses, amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles and restructuring and related charges, less other revenue to premiums earned.
• Combined ratio: the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio.
We have also calculated the following impacts of specific items on the GAAP operating ratios because of the volatility of these items between periods. The impacts are calculated by taking the specific items noted below divided by Property-Liability premiums earned:
• Effect of catastrophe losses on combined ratio: includes catastrophe losses and prior year reserve reestimates of catastrophe losses included in claims and claims expense
• Effect of prior year reserve reestimates on combined ratio
• Effect of amortization of purchased intangibles on combined ratio
• Effect of restructuring and related charges on combined ratio
• Effect of Run-off Property-Liability business on combined ratio: includes claims and claims expense, restructuring and related charges and operating costs and expenses in the Run-off Property-Liability segment
Premium measures and statistics are used to analyze our premium trends and are calculated as follows:
• PIF : policy counts are based on items rather than customers. A multi-car customer would generate multiple item (policy) counts, even if all cars were insured under one policy. Lender-placed policies are excluded from policy counts because relationships are with the lenders.
• New issued applications : item counts of automobile or homeowner insurance applications for insurance policies that were issued during the period, regardless of whether the customer was previously insured by another Allstate brand.
• Average premium - gross written (“average premium”): gross premiums written divided by issued item count. Gross premiums written include the impacts from discounts, surcharges and ceded reinsurance premiums and exclude the impacts from mid-term premium adjustments and premium refund accruals. Average premiums represent the appropriate policy term for each line.
• Implemented rate changes: represents the impact in the locations (U.S. states, the District of Columbia or Canadian provinces) where rate changes were implemented during the period as a percentage of total prior year-end premiums written.

Premium measures and statistics include PIF, new issued applications and average premiums to analyze our premium trends. Premiums written is the amount of premiums charged for policies issued during a reporting period. Premiums are considered earned and are included in the financial results on a pro-rata basis over the policy period. The portion of premiums written applicable to the unexpired term of the policies is recorded as unearned premiums on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

Auto insurance premiums written increased 5.2% or $491 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the following factors:
• Increased Allstate brand average premiums driven by rate increases. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, rate increases of 4.3% were implemented in 32 locations, resulting in total insurance premium impact of 1.4%
• In locations not achieving acceptable returns, we expect to continue to pursue targeted rate
increases. In states where we are achieving acceptable returns, we plan to implement rates that keep pace with increasing costs
• PIF decreased 0.4% or 107 thousand to 25,100 thousand as of March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024
• Increased new issued applications in all channels

(2) The ten-year average effect of first-quarter homeowner catastrophe losses on the total combined ratio was 29.3 points.
Auto loss ratio decreased 6.1 points in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the same period of 2024 driven by increased earned premiums and lower non-catastrophe losses. Estimated report year 2025 incurred claim severity for Allstate increased compared to report year 2024 for major coverages due to higher repair costs, medical consumption and attorney representation. Gross claim frequency decreased relative to the prior year. We continue to enhance our claims practices to manage loss costs by increasing resources and expanding re-inspections and accelerating resolution of bodily injury claims.
Homeowners loss ratio increased 31.5 points in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 primarily due to higher catastrophe losses, partially offset by increased premiums earned.
Gross claim frequency, excluding catastrophes, decreased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. Paid claim severity, excluding catastrophes, increased in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due to an increase in freeze related claims and larger losses within the fire peril. Homeowners paid claim severity can be impacted by both the mix of perils and the magnitude of specific losses paid during the quarter.
Other personal lines loss ratio increased 5.6 points in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the same
period of 2024 primarily due to higher catastrophe losses.
Commercial lines loss ratio decreased 57.0 points in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, primarily due to lower losses, partially offset by a decrease in premiums earned driven by the strategic decision to exit an unprofitable business.
Other business lines loss ratio increased 5.4 points in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the same period of 2024, primarily due to higher catastrophe losses.
Catastrophe losses increased $1.47 billion to $2.20 billion in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 due to $1.06 billion from the California wildfires, and larger losses per event from wind/hail events in March. The catastrophe losses in the first quarter of 2025 are net of $1.13 billion of expected reinsurance recoveries. The California wildfire event includes reinsurance reinstatement premiums and estimated California FAIR Plan assessments.
We define a “catastrophe” as an event that produces pre-tax losses before reinsurance in excess of $1 million and involves multiple first party policyholders, or a winter weather event that produces a number of claims in excess of a preset, per-event threshold of average claims in a specific area, occurring

Segment Results Allstate Protection
within a certain amount of time following the event. Catastrophes are caused by various natural events including high winds, winter storms and freezes, tornadoes, hailstorms, wildfires, tropical storms, tsunamis, hurricanes, earthquakes and volcanoes.
We are also exposed to man-made catastrophic events, such as certain types of terrorism, civil unrest, wildfires or industrial accidents. The nature and level of catastrophes in any period cannot be reliably predicted.
Loss estimates are generally based on claim adjuster inspections and the application of historical loss development factors. Our loss estimates are calculated in accordance with the coverage provided by our policies. The establishment of appropriate reserves, including reserves for catastrophe losses, is an inherently uncertain and complex process. Reserving for hurricane losses is complicated by the inability of insureds to promptly report losses, limitations placed on claims adjusting staff affecting
their ability to inspect losses, determining whether losses are covered by our homeowners policy (generally for damage caused by wind or wind driven rain) or specifically excluded coverage caused by flood, exposure to mold damage, and the effects of numerous other considerations, including the timing of a catastrophe in relation to other events, such as at or near the end of a financial reporting period, which can affect the availability of information needed to estimate reserves for that reporting period. In these situations, we may need to adapt our practices to accommodate these circumstances in order to determine a best estimate of our losses from a catastrophe.
Over time, we have limited our aggregate insurance exposure to catastrophe losses in certain regions of the country that are subject to high levels of natural catastrophes by managing coverage, number of policies in force, utilizing reinsurance and participating in various state facilities.

Catastrophe reinsurance The catastrophe reinsurance program is part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our shareholders with an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, reduce earnings variability, and provide protection to our customers. Our current catastrophe reinsurance program supports our risk and return framework which incorporates our robust economic capital model and is informed by catastrophe risk models including hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires. As of March 31, 2025, the modeled 1-in-100 annual aggregate probable maximum loss for hurricane, earthquake and wildfire perils is approximately $3.1 billion, net of reinsurance. We continually review our aggregate risk appetite and the cost and availability of reinsurance to optimize the risk and return profile of this exposure.
We have placed coverage related to our 2025-2026 Nationwide Excess Catastrophe Reinsurance Program (the “Nationwide Program”), the Kentucky Earthquake Catastrophe Reinsurance Contract and the Canada Catastrophe Excess Reinsurance Contract. The Florida Excess Catastrophe Reinsurance Program and the National General Lender Services Program will be completed in the second quarter of 2025. We are continuing to evaluate complimentary coverage that
provides aggregate protection and reduces earnings volatility.
Similar to our 2024 program, our 2025 program includes coverage for losses to personal lines property, personal lines automobile, commercial lines property or commercial lines automobile arising out of multiple perils, in addition to hurricanes, earthquakes and wildfires.
The Nationwide Program provides per occurrence coverage up to $9.50 billion of loss less a $1.00 billion retention and is subject to the percentage of reinsurance placed in each of its agreements. It also provides aggregate coverage up to $500 million for catastrophe loss events in excess of a deductible of $50 million per event with $66 million of limit utilized by expected recoveries. Property business in the state of Florida is excluded from this program. Separate reinsurance agreements address the distinct needs of separately capitalized legal entities. The Nationwide Program includes reinsurance agreements with both the traditional and insurance-linked securities (“ILS”) markets as described below:
• Core traditional market multi-year and per occurrence agreements provide limits totaling $5.87 billion for catastrophe losses arising out of multiple perils and are comprised of the following:

Allstate Protection Segment Results
– Contracts providing combined $3.25 billion of placed limits exhausting at $4.25 billion, with one annual reinstatement.
– Three multi-year contracts providing combined $336 million of placed limits with two of the contracts providing one reinstatement of limits over each contract’s term.
– Four single-year contracts providing combined $2.28 billion of placed limits filling capacity around the multi-year and ILS placements, with two contracts providing one reinstatement of limits.
• ILS placements provide $2.70 billion of placed limits, with no reinstatement of limits, and are comprised of the following:
– Ten contracts providing occurrence coverage of $2.20 billion of placed limits, reinsuring losses in all states except Florida caused by named storms, earthquakes and fire following earthquakes, severe weather, wildfires, and other naturally occurring or man-made events determined to be a catastrophe by the Company.
– One contract providing occurrence and aggregate coverage of $175 million of placed limits, also provide that for each annual period beginning April 1, Allstate declared catastrophes to personal lines property and automobile business can be aggregated to erode the aggregate retention and qualify for coverage under the aggregate limits.
Recoveries are limited to the ultimate net loss from the reinsured event.
– Two contracts providing aggregate coverage of $325 million of placed limits, with $66 million of limit utilized by expected recoveries.
Kentucky Earthquake Excess Catastrophe Reinsurance Contract is placed in the traditional market and provides $28 million of placed limits, subject to a $2 million retention with one reinstatement of limits.
Canada Catastrophe Excess of Loss Reinsurance Contract is placed in the traditional market and provides CAD 478 million of placed limits, subject to a CAD 100 million retention, with one reinstatement of limits.
The total cost of our property catastrophe reinsurance programs, excluding reinstatement premiums, during the first quarter of 2025 was $257 million, compared to $286 million in the first quarter of 2024. Catastrophe placement premiums reduce net written and earned premium with approximately 82% of the reduction related to homeowners premium.
Prior year reserve reestimates Favorable reserve reestimates, including catastrophes, were $254 million in the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to favorable reserve reestimates in personal auto lines physical damage coverages.

Segment Results Allstate Health and Benefits
Allstate Health and Benefits Segment
On August 13, 2024, we entered into a share purchase agreement with StanCorp Financial Group, Inc. to sell American Heritage Life Insurance Company and American Heritage Service Company, comprising the Company’s employer voluntary benefits business, reported within this segment. The transaction closed on April 1, 2025, and we expect to record a gain on the sale of approximately $625 million in the second quarter of 2025.
On January 30, 2025, Allstate entered into an agreement with Nationwide Life Insurance Company to sell Direct General Life Insurance Company, NSM Sales Corporation and The Association Benefits Solution, LLC, comprising the group health business, reported within this segment. The transaction is expected to close in 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The transaction price for the group health business, less costs to sell, exceeds the carrying value of net assets related to this transaction, resulting in an expected gain of approximately $450 million that will be recognized at closing of the transaction.
Goodwill In conjunction with the EVB and group health business dispositions, the Company reallocated goodwill among the components of the Health and Benefits reporting unit using a relative fair value approach. An interim goodwill impairment test was performed for each of the EVB and group health disposal groups and the goodwill allocated to the retained individual health business. The interim impairment test did not result in an impairment of goodwill. The excess of fair value over carrying amount for the retained individual health business was less than 10%. As of March 31, 2025, the individual health reporting unit had goodwill of $41 million. Estimating fair value is a subjective process that involves the use of significant estimates by management. Market declines and other events impacting the fair value, including discount rates, operating results, investment returns and strategies and growth rate assumptions or increases in the level of equity required to support the business could result in goodwill impairment.

Portfolio composition by investment strategy We utilize two primary strategies to manage risks and returns and to position our portfolio to take advantage of market opportunities while attempting to mitigate adverse effects. As strategies and market conditions evolve, the asset allocation may change.
Market-based strategy seeks to deliver predictable earnings aligned to business needs and provide flexibility to adjust investment risk profile based on
enterprise objectives and market opportunities primarily through public and private fixed income investments and public equity securities.
Performance-based strategy seeks to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns and supplement market risk with idiosyncratic risk primarily through investments in private equity, including infrastructure investments, and real estate with a majority being limited partnerships. These investments include investee level expenses, reflecting asset level operating expenses on directly held real estate and other consolidated investments.

Fixed income securities are rated by third-party credit rating agencies or are internally rated. The Securities Valuation Office (“SVO”) of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) evaluates the fixed income securities of insurers for regulatory reporting and capital assessment purposes. The NAIC assigns securities to one of six credit quality categories defined as “NAIC designations”. In general, securities with NAIC designations of 1 and 2 are considered investment grade and securities with NAIC designations of 3 through 6 are considered below investment grade. The rating is either received from the SVO based on availability of applicable ratings from rating agencies on the NAIC Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations provider list, including Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”), Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) or a comparable internal rating.
As a result of time lags between the funding of investments, the finalization of legal documents, and the completion of the SVO filing process, the portfolio includes certain securities that have not yet been designated by the SVO as of each balance sheet date and the categorization of these securities is based on the expected ratings indicated by internal analysis .
As of March 31, 2025, 91.2% of the consolidated fixed income securities portfolio was rated investment grade. Credit ratings below these designations are considered lower credit quality or below investment grade, which includes high yield bonds.
Market prices for certain securities may have credit spreads which imply higher or lower credit quality than the current third-party rating. Our initial investment decisions and ongoing monitoring procedures for fixed income securities are based on a due diligence process which includes, but is not limited to, an assessment of the credit quality, sector, structure and liquidity risks of each issuer.
Fixed income portfolio monitoring is a comprehensive process to identify and evaluate each fixed income security that may require a credit loss allowance. The process includes a quarterly review of all securities to identify instances where the fair value of a security compared to its amortized cost is below internally established thresholds. For further detail on our fixed income portfolio monitoring process, see Note 5 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In general, gross unrealized losses are related to an increase in market yields, which may include increased risk-free interest rates and wider credit spreads since the time of initial purchase. Similarly, gross unrealized gains reflect a decrease in market yields since the time of initial purchase.

(1) Investee level expenses include asset level operating expenses on directly held real estate and other consolidated investments reported in investment expense.
Performance-based investment income decreased 2.5% or $5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 primarily due to lower private equity valuation increases offset by higher real estate investment results.
Performance-based investment results and income can vary significantly between periods and are influenced by economic conditions, equity market performance, comparable public company earnings multiples, capitalization rates, operating performance of the underlying investments and the timing of asset sales. The Company typically employs a lag in recording and recognizing changes in valuations of limited partnership interests due to the availability of investee financial statements.

Allstate shareholders’ equity increased in the first three months of 2025, primarily due to net income and lower unrealized net capital losses on investments, partially offset by dividends to shareholders. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid dividends of $244 million and $29 million related to our common and preferred shares, respectively.

Common share repurchases On February 26, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized a new $1.50 billion common share repurchase program that must be completed by September 30, 2026. As of March 31, 2025, there was $1.40 billion remaining in the $1.50 billion common share repurchase program.
During the first three months of 2025, we repurchased 511 thousand common shares, or 0.2% of total common shares outstanding at December 31, 2024, for $104 million.
Common shareholder dividends On January 2, 2025, we paid a common shareholder dividend of $0.92. On February 26, 2025, we declared a common shareholder dividend of $1.00 payable on April 1, 2025.
Financial ratings and strength Our ratings are influenced by many factors including our operating and financial performance, asset quality, liquidity, overall portfolio mix, financial leverage (i.e., debt), exposure to risks such as catastrophes and the current level of operating leverage. The preferred stock and subordinated debentures are viewed as having a common equity component by certain rating agencies and are given equity credit up to a pre-determined limit in our capital structure as determined by their
respective methodologies. These respective methodologies consider the existence of certain terms and features in the instruments such as the noncumulative dividend feature in the preferred stock.
There have been no changes to any of our ratings from A.M. Best, S&P or Moody’s since December 31, 2024.
Liquidity sources and uses We actively manage our financial position and liquidity levels in light of changing market, economic and business conditions. Liquidity is managed at both the entity and enterprise level across the Company and is assessed on both base and stressed level liquidity needs. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet these needs. Additionally, we have existing intercompany agreements in place that facilitate liquidity management across the Company to enhance flexibility.
The Corporation is party to an Amended and Restated Intercompany Liquidity Agreement (“Liquidity Agreement”) with certain subsidiaries, which includes, but is not limited to Allstate Insurance Company (“AIC”). The Liquidity Agreement allows for short-term advances of funds to be made between parties for liquidity and other general corporate purposes. The Liquidity Agreement does not establish a commitment to advance funds on the part of any party. AIC serves as a lender and borrower, certain other subsidiaries serve only as borrowers, and the Corporation serves only as a lender. The maximum amount of potential funding under each of these agreements is $1.00 billion.
In addition to the Liquidity Agreement, the Corporation also has an intercompany loan agreement with certain of its subsidiaries, which includes, but is not limited to, AIC. The amount of intercompany loans available to the Corporation’s subsidiaries is at the discretion of the Corporation. The maximum amount of loans the Corporation will have outstanding to all its eligible subsidiaries at any given point in time is limited to $1.00 billion. The Corporation may use commercial paper borrowings, bank lines of credit and securities lending to fund intercompany borrowings.
Parent company capital capacity At the parent holding company level, we have deployable assets
First Quarter 2025 Form 10-Q 67
Capital Resources and Liquidity
totaling $2.99 billion as of March 31, 2025, primarily comprised of cash and short-term, fixed income and equity securities that are generally saleable within one quarter. The proceeds from the EVB disposition will increase deployable assets at the parent holding company level. The earnings capacity of the operating subsidiaries is the primary source of capital generation for the Corporation.
As of March 31, 2025, we held $21.77 billion of cash, U.S. government and agencies fixed income securities, public equity securities and short-term investments, which we would expect to be able to liquidate within one week.
No intercompany capital transactions from insurance companies were paid in the first three months of 2025.
Based on the greater of 2024 statutory net income or 10% of actual December 31, 2024 statutory surplus, the maximum amount of dividends that AIC will be able to pay, without prior Illinois Department of Insurance approval, at a given point in time through February 2026, is estimated to be $3.95 billion, less dividends paid during the preceding twelve months measured at that point in time. In the first three months of 2025, no dividends have been paid.
Dividends may not be paid or declared on our common stock and shares of common stock may not be repurchased unless the full dividends for the latest completed dividend period on our preferred stock have been declared and paid or provided for.
The terms of our outstanding subordinated debentures also prohibit us from declaring or paying any dividends or distributions on our common or preferred stock or redeeming, purchasing, acquiring, or making liquidation payments on our common stock or preferred stock if we have elected to defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures, subject to certain limited exceptions. In the first three months of 2025, we did not defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures.
Additional resources to support liquidity are as follows:
• The Corporation and AIC have access to a $750 million unsecured revolving credit facility that is available for short-term liquidity requirements. The maturity date of this facility is November 2027. The facility is fully subscribed among 11 lenders with the largest commitment being $95 million. The commitments of the lenders are several and no lender is responsible for any other lender’s commitment if such lender fails to make a loan under the facility. This facility contains an increase provision that would allow up to an additional $500 million of borrowing, subject to the lenders’ commitment. This facility has a financial covenant requiring that we not exceed a 37.5% debt to capitalization ratio as defined in the agreement. This ratio was 20.7% as of March 31, 2025. Although the right to borrow under the facility is not subject to a minimum rating requirement, the costs of maintaining the facility and borrowing under it are
based on the ratings of our senior unsecured, unguaranteed long-term debt. There were no borrowings under the credit facility during 2025.
• To cover short-term cash needs, the Corporation has access to a commercial paper facility with a borrowing capacity limited to any undrawn credit facility balance up to $750 million.
• As of March 31, 2025, there were no balances outstanding for the credit facility or the commercial paper facility and therefore the remaining borrowing capacity was $750 million.
• The Corporation has access to a universal shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission that was filed on April 30, 2024 and expires in 2027. We can use this shelf registration to issue an unspecified amount of debt securities, common stock (including 635 million shares of treasury stock as of March 31, 2025), preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units. The specific terms of any securities we issue under this registration statement will be provided in the applicable prospectus supplements.
