  • Progressive's EPS growth creates an investment opportunity (PGR)
    January 18, 2026, 8:37 AM EST. Progressive (NYSE: PGR) shows improved profitability, with EPS up about 32% year over year to $18.27. Revenue climbs 18% to about $85 billion, though non-operating income inflates the figure, so the underlying business may differ. EBIT margin stayed broadly flat, yet the growth backdrop supports a sustainable position. With a market cap near $119 billion, insiders hold roughly $303 million of stock (about 0.3%), aligning their interests with shareholders. The report frames EPS growth as a key signal for investors, though profitability alone doesn't guarantee outperformance and revenue composition warrants caution. Overall, Progressive presents a profitable, cash-generative name in a market dominated by loss-making peers.
