Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Financial Services / Insurance. Price $92.19, market value $5.5 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 11.4×** (5-yr avg 18.2×, 3-yr avg 18.5×). Selective Insurance Group Inc. trades at 11.4× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 18.2×: cheap by its own standards. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 10.5×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.08**. A PEG of 0.08 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: 1.6×**. The shares trade at 1.6× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 21.7%** (5-yr avg 17.4%). Free cash flow equals 21.7% of the market value, above its five-year average of 17.4%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 8.7%**. The inverse of the P/E: 8.7% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 8.7%**. 8.7% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 12.9%**. 12.9% on shareholders' equity is solid.
- **Return on assets: 3.3%**. Each dollar of assets produces 3.3% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 9.8%** (3-yr 14.5%/yr, 5-yr 12.8%/yr). Revenue grew 9.8% over the last year, against 12.8% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 131.9%** (3-yr 28.4%/yr, 5-yr 12.9%/yr). Earnings per share rose 131.9%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 15.4%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 15.4% a year over three years, lagging earnings: check whether profits are turning into cash.

## Financial health

- **Payout ratio: 20%** (8% of free cash flow). 20% of earnings goes out as dividends, leaving room to keep raising it.
- **Consecutive years of increases: 26**. 26 straight years of increases (the data covers 26 years, so this may be longer): a record very few companies hold.
- **Dividend growth (5 yr): 10.8%/yr** (1-yr 9.8%). The dividend has compounded at 10.8% a year over five years, doubling roughly every 7 years at that pace.

- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 47**. An RSI of 47 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): -0.01** (volatility 25%). Beta of -0.01 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
