Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as premium amounts, interest rates, and equity prices. We are exposed to market risk through our Book of Business, investments, and borrowings under our Credit Agreements. We use derivative instruments to mitigate our risk related to the effect of rising interest rates on our cash flows. However, we do not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Insurance premium pricing within the P&C insurance industry has historically been cyclical, based on the underwriting capacity of the insurance industry and economic conditions. External events, such as terrorist attacks, man-made and natural disasters, can also have significant impacts on the insurance market. We use the terms “soft market” and “hard market” to describe the business cycles experienced by the industry. A soft market is an insurance market characterized by a period of declining premium rates, which can negatively affect commissions earned by insurance agents. A hard market is an insurance market characterized by a period of rising premium rates, which, absent other changes, can positively affect commissions earned by insurance agents. Our investments are held primarily as cash and cash equivalents. These investments are subject to interest rate risk. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 approximated their respective carrying values due to their short-term duration and therefore, such market risk is not considered to be material. We do not actively invest or trade in equity securities. As of June 30, 2026, we had $92.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, which earned interest income of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The impact of a hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would have reduced/increased interest income by $0.2 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately $3.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our Term Loan Credit Agreement. We repaid the outstanding balances of our Term Loan B and Revolving Facility in full as of June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $4.0 million and zero borrowings outstanding under our Term Loan Credit Agreement and Revolving Facility, respectively. These borrowings accrue interest tied to SOFR and therefore interest expense under these borrowings is subject to change. The effect of an immediate hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 33 Table of Contents
