KNSL Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Kinsale Capital Group Inc has demonstrated impressive growth in its gross written premiums, increasing over tenfold, driven by a hard market and efficient underwriting practices, with a significant 440% growth in its Property book between 2022 and 2024. The underwriting department's efficiency is evidenced by a 20.7% increase in total quotes amidst a 17.9% rise in headcount, while maintaining a stable submission to bind ratio of 7.3% in the face of increasing competition. Additionally, Kinsale's strong investment portfolio, rated AA- on average, supports its underwriting operations, positioning the company for continued market share gains and re-accelerated gross written premium growth projected at around 10% for 2027.
Bears say
Kinsale Capital Group, Inc. is facing a negative outlook primarily due to a significant slowdown in growth rates, with premium compound annual growth rates (CAGR) dropping considerably from the previous highs of over 40%. The company's performance has been inconsistent, as evidenced by its 75% lower trading outcomes despite an average earnings beat of 12.8% in recent reports, as well as underperforming the S&P 500 on multiple occasions. Additionally, projected margin deterioration amidst competitive pressures and macroeconomic challenges further complicate the company's ability to sustain its previous growth trajectory.
