Old Republic International Corporation reported a strong Q1 2026 with net income of $330.0 million, an increase from $245.0 million in Q1 2025. However, the company's core earnings performance was impacted as net operating income fell to $170.5 million compared to $201.7 million a year ago, driven by underwriting challenges. Revenues rose 7.1% year-over-year to $2.4 billion primarily due to growth in both Specialty and Title Insurance segments, despite rising expenses and pressure on margins.
