Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
ALL's Q2 adjusted EPS of $5.94 beat estimates by 78.9%, surging from $1.61 in the prior-year quarter.
P&C premiums rose 7.8% to $15B, while market-based investment income jumped 66% year over year.
Total costs and expenses fell 3%, aided by lower claims and benefits, boosting pretax income to $2.7B.
The Allstate Corporation (ALL - Free Report) reported a second-quarter 2025 adjusted net income of $5.94 per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 78.9%. The bottom line rose significantly from $1.61 a year ago.
Operating revenues advanced 6.1% year over year to $16.8 billion but missed the consensus mark by 2.9%.
The better-than-expected second-quarter earnings benefited from growth in premiums and improved investment income in the Property-Liability business and decreased costs and expenses. However, the upside was partly offset by the sale of the Employer Voluntary Benefits unit.
