Kinsale Capital remains a top-tier E&S insurer, with strong underwriting, low costs, and rapid float growth. Q1 2026 showed mixed results: gross written premiums fell 0.5%, but net income and investment income rose, and the combined ratio improved to 77.4%. KNSL's valuation has reset to mid-teens forward earnings, making it reasonably priced for its quality, though it still trades at a high book value multiple.
