02 Exhibit A · the spread

What carriers request vs what their actuaries indicate.

A rate filing states two numbers. The indicated change is what the carrier's actuarial analysis says the rate level should move. The requested change is what the carrier asks the regulator to act on. The distance between them, the spread, is rate pressure the filing did not pass through, and it runs in both directions.

The HAIC row runs the other direction. Homeowners of America's Texas filing states an indicated change of -17.2% alongside a requested change of 0.0%: the carrier's own rate-need calculation says current rates sit 17.2% above the indicated level, and the filing asks to keep them where they are. An indication is an actuarial estimate, and carriers weigh rate stability, data credibility, and reinsurance costs when setting a request; the filing memorandum is the authoritative context. The spread field records the gap either way: increases a carrier did not request, and decreases it did not pass through.

04 Exhibit C · non-renewals

Where homeowner policies were not renewed.

Rate filings show where pricing is heading; non-renewal data shows where carriers are already stepping back. The ten counties below had the highest carrier-initiated non-renewal rates in 2023 among counties with more than 5,000 policies in force.
