2026 Company Outlook⁶

Note: Some of the metrics included within the company’s outlook are non-GAAP financial measures and the company believes that it cannot, without unreasonable efforts, forecast certain information needed to reconcile to the GAAP measures, the probable significance of which cannot be determined. More information can be found in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section.

Based on current macroeconomic conditions, the company expects the following:

• Adjusted EBITDA, excluding reportable catastrophes⁶, to be consistent with 2025 levels, or to increase mid-to-high single digits, excluding $113 million of favorable prior year development in 2025.
  • Global Lifestyle Adjusted EBITDA to increase high single digits with contributions from Connected Living and Global Automotive.
  • Global Housing Adjusted EBITDA, excluding reportable catastrophes⁶, to decrease, with solid underlying growth when excluding $113 million of prior year reserve development in 2025.
  • Corporate and Other Adjusted EBITDA loss to approximate $140 million, reflecting organic investments in our Home Warranty business.

• Adjusted earnings, excluding reportable catastrophes, per diluted share⁶, to be consistent with 2025 levels, or increase mid-to-high single digits when excluding $113 million of prior year reserve development in 2025. The company expects depreciation expense of approximately $175 million, interest expense of approximately $113 million, amortization of purchased intangible assets of approximately $70 million and an effective tax rate of approximately 20 to 22 percent.

• Capital deployment priorities to focus on maintaining a strong financial position, supporting business growth by funding organic investments and M&A, and returning capital to shareholders through common stock dividends and share repurchases, subject to Board approval.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Assurant uses the following non-GAAP financial measures to analyze the company’s operating performance. Assurant’s non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Because Assurant’s calculation of these measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies, investors should be careful when comparing Assurant’s non-GAAP financial measures to those of other companies.

1. Adjusted EBITDA: Assurant uses Adjusted EBITDA as an important measure of the company’s operating performance. Assurant defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income, excluding net realized gains (losses) on investments and fair value changes to equity securities, interest expense, benefit (provision) for income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, as well as other highly variable or unusual items, including restructuring costs and the loss on a subsidiary held for sale. The company believes this metric provides investors with an important measure of the company’s operating performance because it excludes items that do not represent the ongoing operations of the company, and therefore (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze the ongoing operations of its businesses and (ii) facilitates comparisons of its operating performance over multiple periods, including because the amortization expense associated with purchased intangible assets may fluctuate from period to period based on the timing, size, nature and number of acquisitions. Although the company excludes amortization of purchased intangible assets from Adjusted EBITDA, revenue generated from such intangible assets is included within the revenue in determining Adjusted EBITDA. The comparable GAAP measure is net income. See Note 2 below for a full reconciliation.
   
   
2. Adjusted EBITDA, Excluding Reportable Catastrophes: Assurant uses Adjusted EBITDA (defined above), excluding reportable catastrophes (which represents individual catastrophic events that generate losses in excess of $5.0 million, pre-tax, net of reinsurance and client profit sharing adjustments and including reinstatement and other premiums), as another important measure of the company’s operating performance. The company believes this metric provides investors with an important measure of the company’s operating performance for the reasons noted above, and because it excludes reportable catastrophes, which can be volatile. The comparable GAAP measure is net income.
