How it compares with its industry
Three ratings, each a percentile against the 16 companies we cover in Insurance Specialty. Deliberately kept apart rather than blended into one score — cheap, rising and well-run are three different facts, and a single number would hide which one is which.
Momentum

Near the bottom of its industry
12 months to a month ago-42.2%
6 months to a month ago13.4%
The most recent month is left out on purpose: returns tend to persist over 7–12 months and the newest one tends to reverse. This describes what the price has done, and says nothing about what it will do.

A description of where this company sits among its competitors, not a recommendation. Ratings updated Nov 14, 2026.
A blank price-to-earnings means a loss, not a missing figure — the ratio has no meaning when there are no earnings to divide by, and printing a negative one would make the least profitable company look the cheapest.
Grades are trailing twelve months from each company’s own SEC filings, so they move only when a company files. Every column is computed by the same code that graded Octave Specialty Group, Inc. on the overview — nothing here comes from a data vendor’s own ratios.
Industry membership is not a judgement about how similar two businesses are. It groups companies by what they are classified as, which is a starting point for comparison rather than a claim that they compete.
