Management highlights
- Overall Financial Health * The company maintains a debt-free balance sheet with significant cash and invested assets, retaining strong financial flexibility for future growth. * Adjusted EBITDA margins hit 53% in Q2, and management believes annual margins above 50% are achievable for the foreseeable future. * The company completed its authorized share repurchase program, buying back a total of $12 million worth of common stock, which management views as a compelling capital allocation at attractive valuations. - Platform Growth & Ecosystem Momentum * The platform's flywheel/network effect is accelerating: growth in independent agent adoption makes the platform more attractive to carrier partners, and additional carrier partners in turn strengthen the value proposition for agents. * Q2 2026 saw double quote volume compared to the start of 2026, and the total number of agents on the platform has doubled year-to-date. * The company added its eighth carrier partner, GEICO, which brings auto insurance to the platform. This addition enables agents to bundle home and auto policies, expanding the platform's product offerings to include homeowners, commercial residential, flood, and auto insurance, and increasing its value to agents and their clients. - New Strategic AI Initiative * Management announced the launch of Exeo Ventures, an internal strategic initiative focused on building entirely new AI-native products, services, and businesses that are only possible due to modern AI capabilities, rather than just improving existing processes with AI. * One example of the opportunities Exeo Ventures is exploring is AI-enabled on-demand scaling of catastrophe insurance claims processing, which can immediately increase processing capacity by orders of magnitude during demand surges to deliver faster service to policyholders. The initiative currently has 4-5 early-stage projects in its pipeline, and may explore opportunities beyond core insurance.
Guidance
- Third quarter 2026 guidance expects pre-tax income between $28 million and $31 million, with managed platform premium of approximately $1.4 billion, aligned with anticipated timing of client growth and typical business seasonality. - Full year 2026 guidance is maintained unchanged, with a full year-end managed premium target of $1.55 billion. - The company expects typical seasonal revenue patterns for 2026: revenue peaked slightly in Q2, will see more modest growth in Q3, and will experience a slight step down in Q4, tied to annual renewal cycles and product mix.

Analyst Q&A
Q: What is the potential size and timeline for revenue contribution from the new GEICO partnership? /
A: GEICO is a very large third-largest U.S. auto insurer, and the partnership enables agents to bundle home and auto policies directly on the XEO platform. Management notes the partnership is a meaningful, high-potential start, but it is still early days, and the business will scale gradually over time. Management expressed significant excitement about the strategic opportunity of the partnership.
Q: What is the strategic purpose of Exeo Ventures, and will launching this initiative erode the company's 50%+ adjusted EBITDA margins? /
A: Exeo Ventures is focused on building completely new businesses that can only exist with modern AI, not just retrofitting AI to improve XEO's existing core platform (core platform AI improvements will continue regardless). It currently has 4-5 early-stage projects in the pipeline, and may even pursue opportunities outside of core insurance as they mature. The call did not include specific discussion of near-term margin impacts from the initiative.
Q: How should investors think about Q3/Q4 2026 adjusted revenue, and can you confirm the full year managed premium target? /
A: The full year 2026 end-of-period managed premium target remains unchanged at $1.55 billion. The company's revenue follows consistent seasonal patterns tied to client renewal cycles and product mix, with a slight peak in Q2 2026, modest results in Q3, and a slight seasonal step down in Q4, which is typical for the business.
Q: How is the agent-carrier flywheel progressing as the platform adds more carriers and products? /
A: Adding more product options and carriers strengthens the platform's value as a one-stop hub for agents to serve client needs, which drives both higher agent adoption and higher existing agent utilization of the platform. Consistent carrier additions over the past year have built positive momentum in the partner pipeline, as more visible platform capabilities make new carrier partnership conversations easier, and all pipeline trends are pointing in a positive direction.
