19. Segments
Historically, the Company reported its financial results in the following three reportable segments: Services, Insurance-as-a-Service, and Hippo Home Insurance Program, which was reflective of how the Company’s CODM reviewed financial information for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources. Because of organizational changes and how the CODM views the business, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, the Company changed from three operating and reportable segments to one operating and reportable segment, the property and casualty insurance business. The property and casualty insurance business generates revenues primarily from net earned premiums, commission income, and net investment income.
The CODM is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The significant segment expenses provided to the CODM are consistent with the categories shown in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and there are no other segment expenses at a more disaggregated level used by the CODM. The CODM reviews the Company’s net income (loss) as reported under GAAP, which is the primary measure of segment profit and loss. The CODM reviews this measure to monitor budget versus actual results and in competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s competitors. The budgeted versus actual results analysis along with the competitive analysis are used to make resource allocation decisions. While the Company’s CODM also reviews the revenue streams attributable to individual lines of business, operations are managed, resources are allocated, and financial performance is evaluated on a consolidated basis. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
Prior period segment results and related disclosures have been recast to conform to the current period segment presentation.
About Segments Disclosures
Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.
Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
