Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Financial Services / Insurance. Price $285.74, market value $14.1 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 13.7×** (5-yr avg 14.4×, 3-yr avg 14.0×). Assurant Inc. trades at 13.7× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 14.4×. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 12.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.71**. A PEG of 0.71 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.0×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.0×.
- **Price / book: 2.3×**. The shares trade at 2.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 11.7%** (5-yr avg 9.5%). Free cash flow equals 11.7% of the market value, above its five-year average of 9.5%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 7.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 7.3% of the price is earned each year.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 17.1%** (3-yr 49.7%/yr, 5-yr 19.4%/yr). Earnings per share rose 17.1%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
