Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF REPORTING AND ACCOUNTING
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Progressive Corporation and our wholly owned insurance subsidiaries and non-insurance subsidiaries and affiliates in which we have a controlling financial interest; collectively referred to as Progressive, we, us, or our.
The consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with Progressive’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in Exhibit 13 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (2025 Annual Report to Shareholders).
Premiums Receivable
We perform analyses to evaluate our premiums receivable for expected credit losses. See our 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders for a discussion on our premiums receivable allowance for credit loss policy. The following table summarizes changes in our allowance for credit loss exposure on our premiums receivable:
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
(millions) 2026 2025 2026 2025
Allowance for credit losses, beginning of period $ 528 $ 473 $ 552 $ 460
Increase in allowance 1
230 176 413 329
Write-offs 2
( 214 ) ( 148 ) ( 421 ) ( 288 )
Allowance for credit losses, end of period $ 544 $ 501 $ 544 $ 501
1 Represents the incremental increase in other underwriting expenses.
2 Represents the portion of allowance that is reversed when the premiums receivable balances are written off. Premiums receivable balances are written off once we have exhausted our collection efforts.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
Cash and cash equivalents include bank demand deposits. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents include collateral held against unpaid deductibles and cash that is restricted to pay flood claims under the National Flood Insurance Program’s “Write Your Own” program, for which certain subsidiaries are participants.
Non-cash activity included the following in the respective periods:
Six Months Ended June 30,
(millions) 2026 2025
Common share dividends 1
$ 58 $ 58
Operating lease liabilities 2
43 63
1 Declared but unpaid. See Note 10 – Dividends for further discussion.
2 From obtaining right-of-use assets.
In the respective periods, we paid the following:
Six Months Ended June 30,
(millions) 2026 2025
Income taxes, net of refunds $ 1,403 $ 1,644
Interest 138 138
Operating lease liabilities 49 45
New Accounting Standards
We did not adopt any new accounting standards during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
In May 2026, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) that establishes accounting guidance for the recognition of environmental credits and environmental credit obligations. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years (including interim periods within those fiscal years) beginning after December 15, 2027 (fiscal 2028 for calendar-year companies). We do not believe this ASU will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2025, the FASB issued an ASU that amends the existing accounting guidance for capitalization of internal-use software costs and provides more detailed guidelines around the criteria for capitalization. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years (including interim periods within those fiscal years) beginning after December 15, 2027 (fiscal 2028 for calendar-year companies). We do not believe this ASU will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

$ 93,947 $ 901 $ ( 753 ) $ 3,278 $ 97,373 100.0 %
1 At June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025, we had $ 568 million, $ 303 million, and $ 200 million, respectively, of net unsettled security transactions included in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
The total fair value of the portfolio at June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025, included $ 6.7 billion, $ 5.0 billion, and $ 13.0 billion, respectively, of securities held in a consolidated, non-insurance subsidiary of the holding company, net of unsettled security transactions. A portion of the investments held at December 31, 2025, were sold and proceeds were used to pay our common share dividends in January 2026; see Note 10 – Dividends for additional information.
At June 30, 2026, securities in the principal amount of $ 881 million were on deposit to meet state insurance and other regulatory requirements. We did no t hold any securities of any one issuer, excluding U.S. government securities, with an aggregate cost or fair value exceeding 10% of total shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2026 or 2025, or December 31, 2025. At June 30, 2026, we did no t hold any debt securities that were non-income producing during the preceding 12 months.
Hybrid Securities Certain securities in our fixed-maturity portfolio are accounted for as hybrid securities because they contain embedded derivatives that are not deemed to be clearly and closely related to the host investments. These securities are reported at fair value:
June 30,
(millions) 2026 2025 December 31, 2025
Fixed Maturities:
Corporate and other debt $ 693 $ 731 $ 733
Residential mortgage-backed 827 615 792
Total hybrid securities $ 1,520 $ 1,346 $ 1,525
Since the embedded derivatives (e.g., change-in-control put option, debt-to-equity conversion, or any other feature unrelated to the credit quality or risk of default of the issuer that could impact the amount or timing of our expected future cash flows) do not have observable intrinsic values, we use the fair value option to record the changes in fair value of these securities through income as a component of net realized gains (losses).

Fixed Maturities The following table details the composition of fixed maturities by maturity at June 30, 2026:
(millions) Cost Fair Value
Less than one year $ 11,419 $ 11,396
One to five years 47,762 47,152
Five to ten years 31,885 31,468
Ten years or greater 419 419
Total $ 91,485 $ 90,435
Securities are classified in the maturity distribution table based upon their projected cash flows. Contractual maturities may differ from expected cash flows because the issuers of the securities may have the right to call or prepay obligations.

A review of the securities in an unrealized loss position indicated that, at the end of each period presented, the issuers were current with respect to their interest obligations and that there was no evidence of deterioration of the current cash flow projections that would indicate we would not receive the remaining principal at maturity.

Allowance For Credit and Uncollectible Losses We are required to measure the amount of potential credit losses for all fixed-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position. We did no t record any allowances for credit losses or any write-offs for credit losses deemed to be uncollectible during the first six months of 2026 or 2025, and did no t have a material credit loss allowance balance as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, or December 31, 2025. No unrealized loss write offs were recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2026 or 2025.
As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025, we believe that none of the unrealized losses on our fixed-maturity securities were related to material credit losses on any specific securities, or in the aggregate. We continue to expect all the securities in our fixed-maturity portfolio will pay their principal and interest obligations.
In addition, we reviewed the accrued investment income on securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025, to determine if the accrued interest amounts were uncollectible. Based on our analysis, we believe the issuers have sufficient liquidity and capital reserves to meet their current interest and future principal obligations and, therefore, did no t write off any accrued income as uncollectible at June 30, 2026 and 2025, or December 31, 2025.

Our portfolio valuations, excluding short-term investments valued at adjusted original cost and classified as either Level 1 or Level 2 in the above tables, are priced exclusively by external sources, including pricing vendors, dealers/market makers, and exchange-quoted prices. At each reporting period, we concluded there was sufficient market activity in the relevant sectors and securities, further supporting our Level 1 and Level 2 classifications.
Our short-term investments classified as Level 1 include commercial paper, U.S. Treasury Bills, and money market funds, which are highly liquid, actively marketed, and have short durations. These securities are valued at their original cost, adjusted for any accretion of discount, which approximates fair value because of the relatively short period of time until maturity. The remainder of our short-term investments with a trade date to maturity of less than a year are classified as Level 2. These securities are classified as Level 2 since they are valued using external pricing vendor prices or are securities that continually trade at par value because they contain either liquidity facilities or mandatory put features within one year and, as a result, are valued at their original cost.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, vendor-quoted prices represented 91 % of our Level 1 classifications (excluding short-term investments valued at adjusted original cost), compared to 93 %, at June 30, 2025. The securities quoted by vendors in Level 1 primarily represent our holdings in U.S. government securities, which are frequently traded, and the quotes are considered similar to exchange-traded quotes. The balance of our Level 1 pricing comes from quotes obtained directly from trades made on active exchanges.
At June 30, 2026 and 2025, vendor-quoted prices comprised 99 % of our Level 2 classifications (excluding short-term investments valued at adjusted original cost), with the balance from dealer quotes, compared to 100 % at December 31, 2025. In our process for selecting a source (e.g., dealer or pricing service) to provide pricing for securities in our portfolio, we reviewed documentation from the sources that detailed the pricing techniques and methodologies used by these sources and determined if their policies adequately considered market activity, either based on specific transactions for the particular security type or based on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield, and structure that were recently transacted. Once a source is chosen, we continue to monitor any changes or modifications to their processes by reviewing their documentation on internal controls for pricing and market reviews. We review quality control measures of our sources as they become available to determine if any significant changes have occurred from period to period that might indicate issues or concerns regarding their evaluation or market coverage.
As part of our pricing procedures, we obtain quotes from more than one source to help us fully evaluate the market price of securities. However, our internal pricing policy is to use a consistent source for individual securities in order to maintain the integrity of our valuation process. Quotes obtained from the sources are not considered binding offers to transact. Under our policy, when a review of the valuation received from our selected source appears to be outside of what is considered market level activity (which is defined as trading at spreads or yields significantly different than those of comparable securities or outside the
13
general sector level movement without a reasonable explanation), we may use an alternate source’s price. To the extent we determine that it may be prudent to substitute one source’s price for another, we will contact the initial source to obtain an understanding of the factors that may be contributing to the significant price variance.
To allow us to determine if our initial source is providing a price that is outside of a reasonable range, we review our portfolio pricing on a weekly basis. When necessary, we challenge prices from our sources when a price provided does not match our expectations based on our evaluation of market trends and activity. Initially, we perform a review of our portfolio by sector to identify securities whose prices appear outside of a reasonable range. We then perform a more detailed review of fair values for securities disclosed as Level 2. We review dealer bids and quotes for these and/or similar securities to determine the market level context for our valuations. We then evaluate inputs relevant for each class of securities disclosed in the preceding hierarchy tables.
For asset-backed securities, including residential, commercial, and other asset-backed securities, we evaluate available market-related data for these and similar securities related to collateral, delinquencies, and defaults for historical trends and reasonably estimable projections, as well as historical prepayment rates and current prepayment assumptions and cash flow estimates. We further stratify each class of asset-backed securities into more finite sectors (e.g., planned amortization class, first pay, second pay, senior, and subordinated) and use duration and credit quality to determine if the fair value is appropriate.
For corporate and other debt, nonredeemable preferred stock, and the notes issued by The Progressive Corporation (see Note 4 – Debt ), we review securities by duration, credit quality, and coupon, as well as changes in interest rate and credit spread movements within that stratification. The review also includes recent trades, including: volume traded at various levels that establish a market; issuer specific fundamentals; and industry-specific economic news as it comes to light.
For state and local government (municipal) securities, we stratify the portfolio to evaluate securities by type, duration, credit quality, and coupon, to review price changes relative to credit spread and interest rate changes.
Additionally, we look to economic data as it relates to geographic location as an indication of price-to-call or maturity predictors. For municipal housing securities, we look to changes in cash flow projections, both historical and reasonably estimable projections, to understand yield changes and their effect on valuation.
For short-term investments valued at adjusted original cost, we look at acquisition price relative to the coupon or yield. Since most of these securities are 60 days or less to maturity, we believe that adjusted original cost is the best estimate of fair value. For short-term investments valued with external vendor prices, we review securities by duration, credit quality, and coupon, as well as changes in interest rate and credit spread movements within that stratification, and recent trade information.
We also review data assumptions as supplied by our sources to determine if that data is relevant to current market conditions. In addition, we independently review each sector for transaction volumes, new issuances, and changes in spreads, as well as the overall movement of interest rates along the yield curve to determine if sufficient activity and liquidity exists to provide a credible source for our market valuations.
During each valuation period, we create internal estimations of portfolio valuation (performance returns), based on current market-related activity (i.e., interest rate and credit spread movements and other credit-related factors) within each major sector of our portfolio. We compare our results to index returns for each major sector adjusting for duration and credit quality differences to better understand our portfolio’s results. Additionally, we review our external sales transactions and compare the actual final market sales prices to previous market valuation prices on a monthly basis. This review provides us further validation that our pricing sources are providing market level prices, and gives us additional comfort regarding the source’s process, the quality of its review, and its willingness to improve its analysis based on feedback from clients. We believe this effort helps ensure that we are reporting the most representative fair values for our securities.
After all the valuations are received and our review of Level 2 securities is complete, if the inputs used by vendors are determined to not contain sufficient observable market information, we will reclassify the affected securities to Level 3.
14
Except as described below, our Level 3 securities are priced externally; however, due to several factors (e.g., nature of the securities, level of activity, and lack of similar securities trading to obtain observable market level inputs), these valuations are more subjective in nature.
To the extent we receive prices from external sources (e.g., broker and valuation firm) for the Level 3 securities, we review those prices for reasonableness using internally developed assumptions and then compare our derived prices to the prices received from the external sources. Based on our review during the first six months of 2026 and for the full year of 2025, all prices received from external sources remained unadjusted.
If we do not receive prices from an external source, we perform an internal fair value comparison, which includes a review and analysis of market-comparable securities, to determine if fair value changes are needed. Based on this analysis, certain private equity investments included in the Level 3 category remain valued at cost or were priced using a recent transaction as the basis for fair value. At
least annually, these private equity investments are priced by an external source.
Our Level 3 other risk investments include securities accounted for under the equity method of accounting and, therefore, are not subject to fair value reporting. Since these securities represent less than 0.1% of our total portfolio, we include them in our Level 3 disclosures and report the activity from these investments as “other” changes in the summary of changes in fair value table and categorize these securities as “pricing exemption securities” in the quantitative information table.
During the first six months of 2026 and for the full year of 2025, there were no material assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
Due to the relative size of the Level 3 securities’ fair values, compared to the total portfolio’s fair value, any changes in pricing methodology would not have a significant change in valuation that would materially impact net or comprehensive income.

At June 30, 2026, short-term debt consisted of the $ 500 million 2.45 % senior notes that mature in January 2027 and the $ 500 million 2.50 % senior notes that mature in March 2027. There was no short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2025, or December 31, 2025.
In March 2026, The Progressive Corporation issued $ 500 million of 4.60 % Senior Notes due 2031 and $ 1 billion of 5.15 % Senior Notes due 2036 in an underwritten public offering. The net proceeds from the issuances, after deducting underwriters’ discounts, commissions, and other issuance costs, were approximately $ 1,487 million in aggregate. Consistent with the other senior notes issued by The Progressive Corporation, interest on these notes is payable semiannually, principal is
due at maturity, and the notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to a treasury “make whole” provision.
During the second quarter 2026, The Progressive Corporation renewed its line of credit with PNC Bank, National Association (PNC), in the maximum principal amount of $ 300 million, which expires April 30, 2027. The renewal amended the interest rate to 1-month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 1.0 %. The remaining terms are unchanged from the previous line of credit. See the 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders for a discussion of the terms of this line of credit. We had no borrowings under the line of credit that was available during the periods presented.

5. INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, was 21.3 % and 21.2 %, r espectively, compared to 20.3 % and 20.4 % for the same periods last year. The lower effective tax rate for the prior-year periods was primarily due to the tax benefits associated with distributions of deferred compensation during the second quarter 2025.
Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Although realization of the deferred tax assets is not assured, management believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized based on our expectation that we will be able to fully utilize the deductions that are ultimately recognized for tax purposes
and, therefore, no valuation allowance was needed at June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025.
We had net current income taxes recoverable of $ 50 million and $ 115 million at June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which were reported in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets, compared to net current income taxes payable of $ 28 million at December 31, 2025, which was reported in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. The balance may fluctuate from period to period due to normal timing differences.
At June 30, 2026 and 2025, and December 31, 2025, we have not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits or related interest and penalties.
6. LOSS AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSE RESERVES
Activity in the loss and loss adjustment expense reserves is summarized as follows:

(millions) 2026 2025
Balance at January 1 $ 43,310 $ 39,057
Less reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses 3,807 4,487

Incurred related to:
Current year 29,401 27,016
Prior years ( 1,002 ) ( 607 )
Total incurred 28,399 26,409
Paid related to:

41,901 37,254
Plus reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses 3,666 3,900
Balance at June 30
$ 45,567 $ 41,154
We experienced favorable reserve development of $ 1,002 million and $ 607 million during the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively, which is reflected as “incurred related to prior years ” in the table above.
Year-to-date June 30, 2026
• The favorable prior-year reserve development included approximately $ 670 million attributable to accident year 2025, $ 220 million to accident year 2024, and the remainder to accident years 2023 and prior.
• Our perso nal auto products incurred about $ 845 million of favorable loss and loss adjustment expense (LAE) reserve development, with the agency and direct auto businesses each contributing about half. The favorable development was primarily due to lower than anticipated bodily injury severity and, to a lesser extent, lower than anticipated payments on reopened property damage claims that were previously closed and lower than anticipated personal injury protection loss adjustment expenses.
• Our Commercial Lines business incurred about $ 140 million of favorable loss and LAE reserve development. The favorable development was primarily due to lower than anticipated injury severity in our transportation network company (TNC) business, partially offset by higher than anticipated injury severity and litigation defense costs in our core commercial auto products.
19
Year-to-date June 30, 2025
• The favorable prior-year reserve development included approximately $ 400 million attributable to accident year 2024, $ 115 million to accident year 2023, and the remainder to accident years 2022 and prior.
• Our personal auto products incurred about $ 520 million of favorable loss and LAE reserve development, with the agency and direct auto businesses each contributing about half. The favorable development was primarily due to lower than anticipated loss severity and frequency in Florida and, to a lesser extent, lower than anticipated litigation defense costs across most states.
• Our personal property products experienced about $ 50 million of favorable development, primarily attributable to favorable development on 2024 catastrophe events.
• Our Commercial Lines business experienced about $ 45 million of favorable development, primarily attributable to lower than anticipated severity in our TNC business.
7. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our Personal Lines segment writes insurance for personal autos, special lines products (e.g., recreational vehicles, such as motorcycles, RVs, and watercraft), personal residential property insurance for homeowners and renters, umbrella insurance, and flood insurance through the “Write Your Own” program for the National Flood Insurance Program.
Our Commercial Lines segment writes auto-related liability and physical damage insurance, business-related

1 Includes other underwriting business and run-off operations.
2 Includes policy acquisition costs, agents’ contingent commissions, and advertising costs attributable to our operating segments. A portion of our companywide advertising costs are also attributed to our service businesses.
3 Primarily consists of employee compensation and benefit costs, and the increase in the allowance for credit loss exposure on our premiums receivable.
4 Calculated as recurring investment income plus total net realized gains (losses) on securities, less investment expenses.
Our management uses underwriting margin and combined ratio as primary measures of underwriting profitability. The underwriting margin is the pretax underwriting profit (loss) expressed as a percentage of net premiums earned. Pretax underwriting profit (loss) is calculated as net premiums earned plus fees and other revenues, less: (i) losses and loss adjustment expenses; (ii) policy acquisition costs; and (iii) other underwriting expenses. Fees and other revenues are netted against either loss adjustment expenses or underwriting expenses in the ratio calculations, based on the underlying activity that generated the revenue. Combined ratio is the complement of the underwriting margin. Following are the underwriting margins and combined ratios for our underwriting operations for the respective periods:

In an effort to manage interest rate risk, we entered into forecasted transactions on certain issuances of The Progressive Corporation’s debt. During the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify approximately $ 1 million (pretax) into interest expense, related to net unrealized losses on forecasted transactions (see Note 4 – Debt in our 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders for further discussion).

9. LITIGATION
The Progressive Corporation and/or its insurance subsidiaries are named as defendants in various lawsuits arising out of claims made under insurance policies written by our insurance subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. We consider all legal actions relating to such claims in establishing our loss and loss adjustment expense reserves.
In addition, The Progressive Corporation and/or its insurance subsidiaries are named as defendants in a number of class action or individual lawsuits that challenge certain of the operations of the subsidiaries. The nature and volume of litigation pending against The Progressive Corporation and/or its insurance subsidiaries is similar to that which was disclosed in Note 12 – Litigation in our 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders.
As of June 30, 2026, lawsuits have been certified or conditionally certified as class/collective actions in cases alleging that: we improperly value total loss claims by applying a negotiation adjustment in Colorado, North Carolina, and Ohio; we improperly calculate basic economic loss as it relates to wage loss coverage in New York; and we improperly reduce or deny personal injury protection benefits when medical expenses are paid initially by health insurance in Arkansas. Other insurance companies face many of these same issues. We plan to contest the pending lawsuits vigorously, but may pursue settlement negotiations in some cases, as we deem appropriate.
Lawsuits arising from insurance policies and operations, including, but not limited to, allegations involving claims adjustment and vehicle valuation, may be filed
contemporaneously in multiple states. As of June 30, 2026, we are named as defendants in class action lawsuits
pending in multiple states alleging that we improperly
value total loss vehicle physical damage claims through the
application of a negotiation adjustment in calculating such valuations, which includes three states in which classes have been certified, as noted above, and lawsuits styled as putative class actions pending in additional states. These lawsuits, which were filed at different times by different plaintiffs, feature certain similar claims and also include different allegations and are subject to various state laws. While we believe we have meritorious defenses and we are vigorously contesting these lawsuits, an unfavorable result in, or a settlement of, a significant number of these lawsuits could, in aggregation, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows, and/or results of operations. Based on information available to us, we determined that losses from these lawsuits are reasonably possible but neither probable nor reasonably estimable, other than for suits for which accruals have been established and are not material, as of June 30, 2026.
With respect to our pending lawsuits that are not related to claims under insurance policies, the accruals that we have established were not material at June 30, 2026 and 2025, or December 31, 2025, and there were no material settlements during 2025 or the first six months of 2026. For most of these lawsuits, we do not consider any losses to be both probable and estimable, and we are unable to estimate a meaningful range of loss, if any, at this time, due to the factors discussed in Note 12 – Litigation in our 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders. In the event that any one or more of these lawsuits results in a substantial judgment against us, or settlement by us, or if our accruals (if any) prove to be inadequate, the resulting liability could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, cash flows, and/or results of operations. For a further discussion on our pending litigation and related reserving policies, see Note 1 – Reporting and Accounting Policies and Note 12 – Litigation in our 2025 Annual Report to Shareholders.
