Company Overview

HCI Group, Inc. (NYSE: HCI) is a holding company whose principal business is the underwriting and issuance of property and casualty insurance through its insurance subsidiaries. Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, the company focuses primarily on personal-line insurance products, writing homeowners, condominium, renters and mobile home policies. HCI Group also offers wind-only and flood coverage in coastal regions across the state, providing tailored solutions to both coastal and non-coastal communities.

The company distributes its insurance products through a network of independent agents and brokers, leveraging local market expertise to assess risk and deliver personalized service. HCI Group’s underwriting teams employ proprietary modeling tools and industry data to evaluate exposure to weather-related events, allowing the company to refine its rate structures and claims-management processes. In addition to personal lines, the company maintains a niche presence in personal liability and umbrella policies, complementing its core homeowners offerings.

Founded in 1979, HCI Group has grown through both organic expansion and strategic acquisitions, including the purchase of Tower Hill Insurance Group in 2018, which expanded its reach into new segments of Florida’s homeowners market. The company’s financial operations are regulated by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation, and it maintains reinsurance arrangements with leading global reinsurers to mitigate volatility from catastrophic events.

HCI Group is governed by a board of directors and led by a management team with extensive experience in insurance, risk management and financial services. The company’s executive leadership oversees actuarial analysis, claims administration and regulatory compliance, positioning HCI Group to navigate Florida’s dynamic insurance environment and deliver long-term value to policyholders and shareholders.
