Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Investors are cautioned that certain statements in this report not based upon historical fact are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements often use words such as “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “goal,” “target,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” and other words and terms of similar meaning, or are tied to future periods, in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, are based on current expectations and projections about future events, and are subject to certain risks, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those discussed herein. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, uncertainties related to:

our ability to underwrite and price risks accurately and to charge adequate rates to policyholders;
our ability to establish accurate loss reserves;
the impact of severe weather, other catastrophe events, and climate change;
the effectiveness of our reinsurance programs and the continued availability of reinsurance and performance by reinsurers;
the secure and uninterrupted operation of the systems, facilities, and business functions and the operation of various third-party systems that are critical to our business;
the impacts of a security breach or other attack involving our technology systems or the systems of one or more of our vendors;
our ability to maintain a recognized and trusted brand and reputation;
whether we innovate effectively and respond to our competitors’ initiatives;
whether we effectively manage complexity as we develop and deliver products and customer experiences;
the highly competitive nature of property-casualty insurance markets;
whether we adjust claims accurately;
compliance with complex and changing laws and regulations;
the impact of misconduct or fraudulent acts by employees, agents, and third parties to our business and/or exposure to regulatory assessments;
our ability to attract, develop, and retain talent and maintain appropriate staffing levels;
litigation challenging our business practices, and those of our competitors and other companies;
the success of our business strategy and efforts to acquire or develop new products or enter into new areas of business and our ability to navigate the related risks;
how intellectual property rights affect our competitiveness and our business operations;
the success of our development and use of new technology and our ability to navigate the related risks;
the performance of our fixed-income and equity investment portfolios;
the impact on our investment returns and strategies from regulations and societal pressures relating to sustainability and other public policy matters;
our continued ability to access our cash accounts and/or convert investments into cash on favorable terms;
the impact if one or more parties with which we enter into significant contracts or transact business fail to perform;
legal restrictions on our insurance subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends to The Progressive Corporation;
our ability to obtain capital when necessary to support our business, our financial condition, and potential growth;
evaluations and ratings by credit rating and other rating agencies;
the variable nature of our common share dividend policy;
whether our investments in certain tax-advantaged projects generate the anticipated returns;
the impact from not managing to short-term earnings expectations in light of our goal to maximize the long-term value of the enterprise;
the impacts of epidemics, pandemics, or other widespread health risks; and
other matters described from time to time in our releases and publications, and in our periodic reports and other documents filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Any forward-looking statements are made only as of the date presented. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or developments or otherwise.

In addition, investors should be aware that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States prescribe when a company may reserve for particular risks, including litigation exposures. Accordingly, results for a given reporting period could be significantly affected if and when we establish reserves for one or more contingencies. Also, our regular reserve reviews may result in adjustments of varying magnitude as additional information regarding claims activity becomes known. Reported results, therefore, may be volatile in certain accounting periods.
