Where SLDE is headed
Slide Insurance is the company that walked into Florida when every national carrier was running for the exit. State Farm, Farmers, Progressive, all pulled back from the coast after the 2022-2023 reinsurance shock. Slide ran the other way, picked up Citizens depopulation policies by the hundreds of thousands, priced them using a proprietary data model built on 30 years of Florida claims history, and somehow turned the most hated insurance market in America into a 66.9% gross margin business with 59.7% return on equity. By late 2027, Slide should be writing roughly $2.0-2.3B in gross premiums, expanding cautiously into South Carolina and the Gulf states, and sitting on a book of business that the market still refuses to value as anything more than a single hurricane away from zero.
