The Progressive Corporation: A Data-First Roadmap to Staying Relevant as Accident Frequency Trends Lower Over Time!

Progressive Corporation’s third-quarter 2025 results demonstrate a mixed performance with both positive and challenging elements. Focusing on key metrics, the company reported an impressive combined ratio of 89.5% and a premium growth rate of 10%. Additionally, the policies in force saw a 12% increase compared to the previous year, equating to 4.2 million more policyholders or nearly 7 million more vehicles in force. Despite it being lower growth than in recent years, the company is managing to gain substantial market share through effective media spending and competitive pricing strategies. Year-to-date results show a combined ratio of 87.3% with a 13% premium growth and comprehensive income of $10 billion, marking a 30% increase from 2024. The trailing 12-month comprehensive return on equity stands at a robust 37.1%. These figures indicate solid underwriting discipline and operational efficiency. However, Progressive is facing significant challenges in its largest market: Florida.
