Inigo Acquisition Impact Detailed
The company reaffirmed the completion of its $1.67 billion Inigo acquisition on February 2, 2026, projecting mid-teens EPS accretion and approximately 200 basis points ROE accretion in 2026, along with doubling total annual revenue. This follows the acquisition finalization announced on February 3, 2026.

Strong Liquidity & Capital Management
Available holding company liquidity increased significantly to $1.8 billion. Radian Guaranty distributed $795 million to the holding company in 2025, including a $600 million intercompany borrowing to fund the Inigo acquisition, which requires Pennsylvania Insurance Department approval for future dividends for at least three years.

Mortgage Insurance Trends
Primary mortgage insurance in force reached an all-time high of $282.5 billion. However, the provision for losses increased to $22 million in Q4 2025 from a de minimis amount in Q4 2024, and primary delinquent loans rose to 25,230.
Analysis
Radian Group's latest earnings report provides crucial financial context following its recent $1.67 billion acquisition of Inigo Limited, a strategic move expected to double annual revenue and significantly boost EPS and ROE in 2026. While the core mortgage insurance business showed mixed results with increased loss provisions and delinquent loans, the company's strong liquidity position and ongoing divestiture of non-core assets underscore its strategic transformation into a global multi-line specialty insurer. Investors will focus on the successful integration of Inigo and the realization of its projected financial benefits, alongside trends in the core MI business.
