Assurant reported third quarter 2024 GAAP net income of $133.8 million, down 30% from a year earlier, as reportable catastrophes cut results, mainly in Global Housing. Excluding those catastrophes, adjusted earnings per share rose 9% to $5.08, and the company raised its 2024 outlook, which matters to shareholders because it signals stronger expected underlying earnings growth and planned share repurchases.
GAAP net income was $133.8 million, down 30% from $190.1 million; diluted EPS was $2.55 versus $3.54.
Reportable catastrophes totaled $138.2 million pre-tax in Q3 2024, compared with $26.4 million a year earlier.
Adjusted EBITDA excluding catastrophes rose 8% to $385.1 million; 2024 outlook now calls for low double-digit growth in that measure and mid- to high-teens growth in adjusted EPS excluding catastrophes.
The company expects to return $300 million through share repurchases in 2024, with $475 million remaining under its current authorization.
