CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA, August 3, 2026 — United Fire Group, Inc. (UFG) (Nasdaq: UFCS) today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, with net income increasing 45% over the prior year to $33.4 million ($1.29 per diluted share) and adjusted operating income increasing 42% over the prior year to $33.7 million ($1.30 per diluted share).

Net written premium increased 9% in the second quarter, led by growth in the company's core commercial business. The second quarter combined ratio improved 1.1 points year-over-year to 95.3% primarily due to a decreased catastrophe loss ratio. Prior year reserve development remained neutral overall, and net investment income increased 33% to $28.9 million.

“UFG delivered another quarter of outstanding results, achieving our best second-quarter combined ratio in more than 15 years, record net income, record net written premium, and the highest investment income in over 10 years,” said President and CEO Kevin Leidwinger. “These results contributed to a 13.2% return on equity through the first six months of 2026, marking our strongest year-to-date financial performance in two decades.

“The momentum we are seeing reflects the benefits of the strategic actions we have taken to deepen underwriting expertise, evolve our capabilities, strengthen alignment with our distribution partners, and improve investment returns. The transformation of our business continues to generate meaningful financial and operational results, positioning UFG for long-term success.

“As we enter the second half of the year, we remain focused on leveraging our underwriting expertise and strong distribution relationships to pursue attractive growth opportunities. We are confident in our ability to navigate evolving market conditions as a disciplined, solution-oriented underwriting company while continuing to create value for our policyholders, distribution partners and shareholders.”

Second quarter 2026 results:

(All comparisons vs. second quarter 2025, unless noted otherwise)

Net written premium and net earned premium increased by 9.0% and 12.5%, respectively. Core commercial average renewal premium increased 4.6% with rates increasing 2.9% and exposure changes of 1.7%. Excluding the workers' compensation line of business, the overall average increase in renewal premium was 5.0%, with 3.5% from rate increases and 1.5% from exposure changes.

The second quarter combined ratio improved 1.1 points to 95.3% compared to 96.4% in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the following:

•The underlying loss ratio decreased 0.4 points to 57.2%, reflecting sustained lower frequency and earned rate achievement on core commercial lines.

•Catastrophe losses improved 2.8 points to 2.7%, below both the five-year and 10-year historical averages.

•The underwriting expense ratio of 35.4% increased 0.5 points partially driven by actions to reduce our real estate footprint and future expense ratio along with other normal variability.

Net investment income was $28.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $7.3 million or 33%. Income from the fixed maturity portfolio increased by $5.0 million as a result of portfolio growth and reinvestment at higher yields. Income on other long-term investments increased $2.2 million during the second quarter of 2026 due to an increase in valuation of the underlying investments.

Definitions of non-GAAP information and reconciliations to comparable GAAP measures

The company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America. Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its operations and profitability. Management also believes that disclosure of certain non-GAAP financial measures enhances investor understanding of our financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this report include: adjusted operating income, underlying loss ratio, underlying combined ratio, and adjusted book value per share. The company has provided the following definitions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures:

Adjusted operating income: Adjusted operating income is calculated by excluding net investment gains and losses, after applicable federal and state income taxes from net income (loss). Management believes adjusted operating income is a meaningful measure for evaluating insurance company performance and a useful supplement to GAAP information because it better represents the normal, ongoing performance of our business. Investors and equity analysts who invest in and report on the insurance industry and the company generally focus on this metric in their analyses.

Adjusted operating income (loss) $ 1.30  $ 0.90  $ 2.47  $ 1.60

Underlying loss ratio and underlying combined ratio: Underlying loss ratio represents the net loss ratio less the impacts of catastrophes and non-catastrophe prior year reserve development. The underlying combined ratio represents the combined ratio less the impacts of catastrophes and non-catastrophe prior year reserve development. The company believes that the underlying loss ratio and underlying combined ratio are meaningful measures to understand the underlying trends in the core business in the current accident year, removing the volatility of catastrophes and prior year impacts. Management believes separate discussions on catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development are important to understanding how the company is managing catastrophe risk and identifying developments in longer-tailed business.

Prior year reserve development is the increase (unfavorable) or decrease (favorable) in incurred loss and loss adjustment expense at the valuation dates for losses which occurred in previous calendar years. This measure excludes development on catastrophe losses.

Catastrophe losses is an operational measure which utilizes the designations of the Insurance Services Office (“ISO”) and is reported with losses and loss adjustment expense amounts net of reinsurance recoverables, unless specified otherwise. In addition to ISO catastrophes, we also include as catastrophes those events, which may include U.S. or international losses, that we believe are, or will be, material to our operations, either in amount or in number of claims made. Catastrophes are not predictable and are unique in terms of timing and financial impact. While management estimates catastrophe losses as incurred, due to the inherently unique nature of catastrophe losses, the impact in a reporting period is inclusive of catastrophes that occurred in the reporting period, as well as development on catastrophes that have occurred in prior periods.

6

Adjusted book value per share: Adjusted book value per share is calculated by dividing shareholders' equity, excluding net unrealized investment gains and losses, net of tax, by the number of common shares outstanding. Management believes adjusted book value per share is a meaningful measure for evaluating the company's net worth that is primarily attributable to our business operations, because it removes the effect of changing prices on invested assets that can fluctuate from period to period. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Certain performance measures

The company uses the following measure to evaluate its financial performance. Management believes a discussion of this measure provides financial statement users with a better understanding of the company’s results of operations. The company has provided the following definition:

Net written premium: Net written premium is frequently used by industry analysts and other recognized reporting sources to facilitate comparisons of the performance of insurance companies. Net written premium is the amount charged for insurance policy contracts issued and recognized on an annualized basis at the effective date of the policy. Management believes net written premium is a meaningful measure for evaluating insurance company sales performance and geographical expansion efforts. Net written premium for an insurance company consists of direct premiums written and premiums assumed, less premiums ceded. Net earned premium is calculated on a pro-rata basis over the terms of the respective policies. Unearned premium reserves are established for the portion of written premium applicable to the unexpired terms of the insurance policies in force. The difference between net earned premium and net written premium is the change in unearned premium and the change in prepaid reinsurance premiums.
