A demanding market that calls for solidarity Over the past few years, political and socio-economic upheavals have profoundly reshaped our business environment. In 2025, uncertainty stemming from trade tensions added to an already unstable environment marked by an economic slowdown, inflationary pressures, labour shortages, and the accelerating transformation of business models. In this environment, our mutualist approach is proving more relevant than ever. Over the course of the year, I had the opportunity to visit our mutual insurance companies and gain a thorough understanding of the realities unique to each region. Those meetings confirmed the strength of our model, sustained by dedicated teams working toward a common goal: delivering quality, people- focused service to our members and our employees. They also underscored the vital role our mutual companies play in the economic and social development of the regions, rooted as they are in the communities they serve over the long term. Sustained growth and strong results Once again this year, our teams are proud to present very strong financial results that reflect the solidity of our strategic plan and the commitment of nearly 2,500 employees. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, our premium volume reached $1.4 billion, an increase of 7.4% over 2024. This growth reflects both an increase in the number of policies and a higher average premium, in line with the industry and made necessary by claims that are becoming more frequent and more costly. In 2025, our members were less affected by losses caused by wind, water and snow. This helped reduce the number of claims and resulted in an excellent net loss ratio of 48.4%, down 1.9% from 2024. Thanks to the effectiveness of our prevention and risk management practices, we closed the year with insurance service result of $218 million, up 18.5% from 2024. This performance, together with the excellent return on our investment income, which exceeded our target by more than $70 million, confirms the strength of our overall performance and the stability of our financial foundations. This brings our comprehensive income to $219 million. These outcomes reflect the rigour of our practices and our determination to safeguard our members’ assets. As a result, return on equity reached 13.6% for 2025. It is an achievement that fills us with great pride! In a challenging environment for our industry, our strong results reflect the rigour of our practices and our determination to safeguard our members’ assets. “ ” 2025 – ANNUAL REPORT 19
