The analysts covering Radian Group Inc. ( NYSE:RDN ) delivered a dose of negativity to shareholders today, by making a...Radian Group: Diversification Benefits Are Underappreciated
Summary Radian Group is now a more diversified insurer after acquiring Inigo for $1.67 billion, reducing reliance on U.S. housing market cycles. Inigo's integration adds specialty P&C and reinsurance exposure, with expected combined ratios of 90%-92% and ~$0.35 EPS accretion, despite tighter margins. RDN's mortgage insurance book is gradually becoming riskier as older, low-risk policies roll off, but credit quality remains strong and reserve releases continue. With shares trading below 8x earnings, a 3% yield, and catalysts from noncore asset sales and resumed buybacks, I maintain a "Buy" rating with >15% upside. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Summary Radian Group remains a "hold" due to resilient home prices, low insured losses, and strong investment income, despite potential peak earnings in 2024. The company’s profitability is driven by minimal loan losses and higher interest rates, with a solid balance sheet and significant capital returns. Home prices at record highs and low delinquencies protect RDN from significant losses, but new policies post-2022 carry more risk. Investment income has surged due to higher rates, but anticipated rate cuts may moderate future earnings, making current stock levels suitable for holding, not buying.
