-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。トラベラーズ・カンパニーズ(TRV)は、2026年第1四半期の営業利益(EPS)が前年同期の1.91ドルに対し7.71ドルとなり、当社の予想5.42ドル、市場コンセンサス予想7.08ドルを大きく上回りました。これは、災害損失が前年同期の22億7000万ドルから45%以上減少し、7億6100万ドル(税引前)となったことが要因です。第1四半期のコンバインド・レシオは102.5%から88.6%に改善し、前年同期の損失調整額が4億1300万ドル増加したことは、全セグメントにおける全般的な改善を反映しています。保険業界は一般的にテクノロジー導入が遅れているため、当社はTRVの15億ドルのテクノロジー投資と、AI機能拡張のためのAnthropicとの1月の提携を高く評価しています。TRVは、これらのAI投資が生産性向上と競争優位性の創出につながると述べています。しかしながら、第1四半期の営業収益の伸びは、当社の3~6%の予測を下回り、横ばいにとどまりました。また、保険料収入は2%近く減少しました。数年にわたる堅調な価格設定の後、投資家が損害保険市場の健全性を判断するために生産動向に注目する中、売上高の減少は株価上昇の起爆剤となる要素を失わせるものと当社は考えています。
