Valuation, from the filing

Public float$5.39BMarket value of stock held by non-affiliates, as stated on the cover page for 2025-06-30
Float per share$57.01Float divided by shares outstanding in the same filing. A floor under the share price on that date, not the price itself.
Float / net income7.8×A lower bound on the multiple, because affiliate holdings are excluded.
Float / revenue4.3×A lower bound on the multiple, because affiliate holdings are excluded.
Float / equity0.9×A lower bound on the multiple, because affiliate holdings are excluded.

Every figure here is drawn from the 10-K cover page and the statements behind it, so each one traces to a filing. Public float counts only stock held by non-affiliates, which makes these floors rather than estimates: a high multiple is conclusive, a low one may mean cheap or may mean closely held. The float was measured on 2025-06-30, not today, and each multiple below it uses the figures for the fiscal year ending 2025-12-31 — the year that filing covered.

Valuation over time

7.8× earnings today, against a median of 7.6× across 10 years on record. In line with its own history.

Each float is paired with the fiscal year the filing that stated it covers. Only years where the company reported positive net income appear, because a multiple against a loss is not a multiple.

How this compares in its industry

Percentile among the Surety Insurance filers on this site, highest value first. A high percentile means a large figure, which is good for a margin and not for leverage — the ranking says where the company sits, not whether that is where it should be.

Essent Group Ltd. (ESNT) reported revenue of $1.26B and net income of $689.97M for the fiscal year ended 2025-12-31. This page shows 10 annual periods of income statement, balance sheet and cash flow figures normalized from Essent Group Ltd.’s SEC filings, each linked to the filing it came from. It is classified by the SEC under Surety Insurance.

Banks, brokers and insurers present a top line that is not comparable with an operating company’s revenue: it is reported net of interest expense, or as premiums earned, depending on the filer. The figures are the filer’s own and are traceable to the filing; the comparison across classes is what does not hold.
