Resilient insurance demand, driven by the essential need for coverage despite inflationary pressures from the U.S.-Israel war on Iran, is boosting demand for data and analytics tools for underwriting, claims processing and fraud detection. Founded in 1971, the New Jersey-based analytics company primarily serves property and casualty insurers, providing catastrophe modeling and predictive analysis to help them assess risk and optimize policy pricing. The company’s underwriting revenue increased 3.8% in the quarter, while claims revenue climbed 4.3%, primarily due to stronger pricing for its anti-fraud analytics products. Investor concerns about artificial intelligence are continuing to impact the stock, which has fallen 21% this year. Analysts, however, see limited risk as the company’s proprietary data, contributed by insurers themselves, cannot be easily accessed or replicated. Verisk’s adjusted profit per share was $1.82 in the reported quarter, beating expectations of $1.74, according to data compiled by London Stock Exchange Group. First-quarter revenue rose 3.9% to $783 million from a year earlier, versus estimates of $771.4 million.
