Insurance Services Revenue Growth of 38% YoY; Reciprocal Policies Written3 Growth of 38% YoY
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Porch Group, Inc. (“Porch,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” “us”) (NASDAQ: PRCH), a new kind of homeowners insurance company, today reported second quarter results through June 30, 2026, that exceeded our expectations. As a result, the Company raised guidance for the remainder of the year.


CEO Summary
“Q2 was a strong quarter and another clear proof point that the model is working. We exceeded expectations, grew Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Reciprocal)1 meaningfully, delivered positive net income attributable to Porch, and are raising guidance2 across the board. Insurance Services continues to run ahead of schedule, with Reciprocal Written Premium3 scaling, total Reciprocal Policies Written3 up 38% year-over-year, and strong earnings flow-through from premium into Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Reciprocal)1. With strong capacity, expanding top-of-funnel activity, and rapid policy growth, we believe Porch is increasingly positioned for sustained profitability, a stronger balance sheet profile, and disciplined premium growth over time,” said Matt Ehrlichman, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and Founder.

Porch provides full year 2026 guidance based on current market conditions, assumptions, and expectations as of the date of this release. Actual results may vary due to a number of factors, and there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to achieve these results. Porch is not providing reconciliations of expected Porch-Owned Segments Revenue (Excluding Reciprocal), Porch-Owned Segments Gross Profit (Excluding Reciprocal), or Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Reciprocal) for future periods to the most directly comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP because the Company is unable to provide these reconciliations without unreasonable effort because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is unavailable or dependent on the timing of future events outside of the Company’s control.

At June 30, 2026, the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and investments of Porch-Owned Segments and corporate was $126.8 million. The decrease from March 31, 2026, was primarily driven by the timing of bi-annual cash interest payments and the purchase of 2.1 million shares of Porch common stock from the Reciprocal partially offset by Adjusted EBITDA (Excluding Reciprocal)1 of $39.1 million. Porch also holds $106 million surplus notes from the Reciprocal, which are eliminated in consolidation. The surplus notes bear interest of SOFR +9.75%.
At June 30, 2026, the total of the Reciprocal’s cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and investments was $331.0 million.
As of June 30, 2026, outstanding principal for convertible debt was $475.1 million. This includes $134.0 million of 9.00% Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes due May 2030 (the “2030 Notes”), $333.3 million of 6.75% Convertible Senior Secured Notes due October 2028 (the “2028 Notes”), and $7.8 million of 0.75% Convertible Senior Unsecured Notes due September 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). Management expects to settle the 2026 Notes at maturity on September 15, 2026.
In June 2026, the Reciprocal sold approximately 2.1 million shares of Porch common stock to Porch’s wholly owned captive reinsurance business for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $15 million, representing a price per share of $7.17, which was the Nasdaq closing price on March 31, 2026, the date the parties received the requisite corporate approvals for the transaction subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals. The Reciprocal still holds approximately 16.2 million shares of Porch common stock, providing continued upside potential should the share price appreciate.
