Slide Insurance Holdings issued a preliminary outlook for its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results, highlighting increases in gross written premiums and net income.

The company said it expects to generate gross written premiums between $590 million and $600 million in the fourth quarter, bringing full-year gross written premiums to a range of $1.77 billion to $1.78 billion.

According to Slide, this implies year-over-year top-line growth of roughly 50% for the quarter and 33% for the full year.

The outlook follows a second quarter in which Slide reported gross premiums written of $435.4 million, up 25% from $348.3 million a year earlier, and net premiums earned of $243.9 million, also up 25.1%.

Slide’s portfolio also expanded through 2025, with policies in force reaching 348,439 as of June 30, compared with 275,178 a year earlier.

The insurer also projected fourth-quarter net income between $115 million and $125 million. On a full-year basis, net income is expected to be between $389 million and $399 million.

Earlier in the year, Slide completed an initial public offering in June, selling 20 million shares at $20.40 each to raise about $408 million and implying a valuation of roughly $2.62 billion.

The IPO proceeds added permanent capital that the company can deploy to support growth in premiums, fund reinsurance purchases and meet other corporate needs as it scales its homeowners book.

“We are very pleased with our performance in the quarter and the year, both from a growth and underwriting standpoint. Our fourth quarter results reflect our continued top and bottom-line expansion, which we believe will continue into 2026,” said Bruce Lucas (pictured above), chairman and chief executive officer of Slide.

“We remain committed to delivering sustainable and profitable growth, which is core to our strategy of creating long-term value for our shareholders. Looking ahead, we anticipate providing 2026 guidance in conjunction with the release of our fourth quarter earnings.”
