The gross profit for this segment increased by 40%, maintaining a strong gross margin of 87%.
Reciprocal Segment
The Reciprocal Segment recorded an 8% revenue increase to $59.6 million, propelled by a rise in Reciprocal Written Premium (RWP) and earned premiums. However, gross profit in this segment fell by 28%, impacted by increased net losses and a lower gross margin of 38%.
Software & Data
The Software & Data segment exhibited stability, with revenue and gross profit remaining consistent year-over-year. The shift towards larger customers and price increases contributed to a slight rise in annualized average revenue per company.
Consumer Services
Similarly, the Consumer Services segment maintained stability, benefiting from lower warranty claims expenses, which bolstered gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA for this segment saw an increase due to reduced personnel-related costs.

Launch of Porch Insurance
