About BROWN & BROWN, INC.

Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed February 12, 2026. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.

ITEM 1. Business.

General

Brown & Brown, Inc., a Florida corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Brown & Brown” or the “Company”) is a diversified insurance agency, wholesale brokerage, insurance programs and service organization that markets and sells insurance products and services, primarily in the property, casualty and employee benefits areas.

The Company primarily operates as an agent or broker not assuming underwriting risks. However, we also operate and/or participate in various ancillary insurance operations, including (1) reinsurance companies and stand-alone captives that assume underwriting risk; (2) series captive insurance companies (“SCICs”); (3) protected cell companies; (4) segregated account companies; (5) a quota share captive and (6) an excess of loss layer captive (collectively, the "Captives"). These ancillary insurance operations facilitate additional underwriting capacity, generate incremental revenues and/or enable the Company to participate in certain underwriting results. The Company also operates a write-your-own flood insurance carrier, Wright National Flood Insurance Company (“WNFIC”). WNFIC’s underwriting business consists of policies written pursuant to the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”), the program administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) to which premiums and underwriting exposure are ceded, and excess flood policies which are fully reinsured in the private market.

In conjunction with the acquisition of RSC, the holding company for Accession Risk Management Group, Inc., in the third quarter of 2025, the Company realigned its business from three to two segments. As a result of the segment reorganization, the Company consolidated its Programs and Wholesale Brokerage segments into a new Specialty Distribution segment. The Company now reports its financial results in the following two reportable segments: Retail and Specialty Distribution. The historical results, discussion and presentation of our business segments as set forth in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the impact of these changes for all periods presented in order to present segment information on a comparable basis. There is no impact on our previously reported consolidated statements of income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows, statements of comprehensive income or statements of equity resulting from these changes.

As of December 31, 2025, our activities were conducted in 468 domestic locations in 47 states, and 246 international locations in Belgium, Bermuda, Canada, Cayman Islands, France, Germany, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (“Hong Kong”), India, Italy, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Republic of Ireland, Singapore, United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.

Segment Information

Our business is divided into two reportable segments: (i) the Retail segment, and (ii) the Specialty Distribution segment. The Retail segment provides a broad range of insurance products and services to commercial, public and quasi-public entities, and to professional and individual customers, as well as non-insurance warranty services and products through our automobile and recreational vehicle dealer services ("F&I") businesses. The Specialty Distribution segment consists of our programs, wholesale brokerage and specialty businesses. The programs businesses, which act as managing general underwriters (“MGUs”), provide targeted products and services designated for specific industries, trade groups, governmental entities and market niches, which are delivered to the insured directly, to affinity groups, through wholesale brokers or through a global network of independent agents, including Brown & Brown retail agents. These products and services include specialty property and casualty insurance, financial lines, life and health benefits, reinsurance, travel/accident and health insurance, captive administrative services, warranty services and specialty packages of coverages. The wholesale brokerage businesses underwrite and place excess and surplus commercial and personal lines insurance, typically for specialized or hard-to-place types of risks, primarily through a global network of independent agents and brokers, including Brown & Brown retail agents. The specialty businesses offer solutions across affinity and administrative services, captives, reinsurance, travel/accident, warranty, and life & health.

The following table summarizes (i) the commissions and fees generated by each of our reportable operating segments for 2025, 2024, and 2023 and (ii) the percentage of our total commissions and fees represented by each segment for each such period:

As of December 31, 2025, our Retail segment employed 14,531 employees. Our Retail segment has physical locations in 44 states plus Bermuda, Canada, Cayman Islands, India, the Netherlands, Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. In connection with selling and marketing of insurance coverages, we provide a broad range of related services to our customers, such as risk management strategies, loss control surveys and analysis, consultation in connection with placing insurance coverages and claims processing.

Specialty Distribution segment

The Specialty Distribution segment consists of our programs, wholesale brokerage and specialty businesses. Through these businesses the segment provides a diverse trading platform for insurance carriers as well as expanded access and niche solutions for brokers and customers navigating complex and hard-to-place risks. Our largest Specialty Distribution segment customer represented approximately 7.2% of the segment's total commissions and fees.

Our programs businesses, operating under the name "Arrowhead Programs," specialize in the development, underwriting and management of insurance program business, often designed for niche, underserved markets and distribute these coverages to retail agencies (including Brown & Brown retail offices), as well as affinity groups, wholesale entities and direct to consumers. We offer program management expertise for insurance carrier partners across numerous lines of business, which can be grouped into six broad categories as detailed below:

Professional programs. Professional liability and related package insurance products are tailored to the needs of professionals in the following areas: dentistry, legal, eyecare, insurance, financial, physicians and real estate title professionals. Professional liability programs also offer supplementary insurance-related products to include weddings, events, medical facilities and cyber liability.

Personal Lines: Personal lines programs offer a variety of insurance products to personal lines consumers including homeowners and personal property policies; residential earthquake; private passenger automobile and motorcycle coverage, which is currently in run-off.

Commercial Lines: Specific industries and market niches are served by our commercial programs including automotive aftermarket, professional and amateur sports, special events and the entertainment industry; commercial transportation and trucking; forestry; manufactured

housing; and workers’ compensation. The Arrowhead Core Commercial program which covered a broad segment of industries is currently in run-off.

Public Entity: Public entity programs range from providing fully insured programs to establishing risk retention insurance pools, and excess and facultative specific coverages, including administration of various insurance trusts for cities, counties, municipalities, school boards, special taxing districts and quasi-governmental agencies.

Specialty: These programs include flood insurance, commercial difference-in-conditions (earthquake), all-risk commercial property, limited exposure captives, coastal property programs including wind, lender-placed solutions, sovereign native-American nations and parcel insurance.

Our wholesale brokerage businesses, operating under the name "Bridge Specialty Group," offer capabilities across multiple lines including wholesale brokerage, binding and underwriting, and international markets, primarily through independent agents and brokers, including Brown & Brown retail agents. Our teams across the globe provide industry knowledge, placement across lines, and access to admitted, excess, and surplus lines carriers and Lloyd’s markets.

Our Specialty Distribution segment has physical locations in the United States, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Singapore, United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.

Competition

The insurance intermediary business is highly competitive, and numerous firms actively compete with us for customers and insurance markets. Competition in the insurance business is largely based upon innovation, knowledge, understanding of terms and conditions of coverage, quality of service and price. A number of firms with substantially greater resources and market presence compete with us.

A number of insurance companies directly sell insurance, primarily to individuals or small enterprises, and as a result do not pay commissions to third-party agents and brokers. In addition, internet and startup technology companies continue to be a source for direct placement of personal lines or small business insurance. We have our own technology capabilities to also serve personal lines and small businesses. While it is difficult to quantify the impact on our business from individuals or small businesses purchasing insurance over the internet, we believe this risk would generally be isolated to personal lines customers with single-line coverage, or small businesses that do not have a complex insurance program, which represent a small portion of our overall Retail and Specialty Distribution segments.

Regulation, Licensing and Agency Contracts

We and/or our designated employees must generally be licensed to act as agents, brokers, intermediaries or third-party administrators by regulatory authorities in the locations in which we conduct business. Regulations and licensing laws vary by individual state and international location and are often complex.

The applicable licensing laws and regulations in all states and international jurisdictions are subject to amendment or reinterpretation by regulatory authorities, which in most cases have broad discretion as to the granting, revocation, suspension and renewal of licenses. We endeavor to monitor the licensing status of our employees, but the possibility exists that we and/or our employees could be excluded or temporarily suspended from carrying on some or all of our activities in a particular jurisdiction in addition to being subjected to fines.

Human Capital

As of December 31, 2025, Brown & Brown employed 22,888 individuals worldwide. We have agreements with our sales team and certain other employees to:


Safeguard our confidential information and trade secrets,


Restrict post-employment solicitation of our customers and


Prevent the hiring of our employees for a set period after separation.

The enforceability of these agreements varies based on applicable laws and factual circumstances. The majority of our employment relationships are at will and terminable by either party at any time; however, the confidentiality and non-solicitation covenants generally extend at least two years after employment ends.

Apart from certain employees in Canada, none of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our employee relations to be strong.

Our Guiding Principles

Our foundation is built on four pillars: people, performance, service and innovation. Our employees, whom we call “teammates,” form a cohesive team bound by shared behaviors and values—our cultural DNA. We are committed to serving our customers, communities, teammates, carrier partners and shareholders by embracing diversity of talent, experience and thought.

As a meritocracy, we provide opportunities for teammates to grow based on their performance and initiative with the goal of ensuring every teammate has a path to success.

Culture

Integrity, innovation, discipline and meritocracy define our culture. Our customer-first approach drives a high-performing, decentralized organization focused on growth and service. By empowering, challenging and rewarding our teammates, we cultivate extraordinary results.

With nearly 20% of the Company owned by teammates, we foster a unique ownership culture. Programs like the Teammate Stock Purchase Plan ("TSPP"), 401(k) and long-term equity grants encourage teammates to share in Brown & Brown’s success. Over 60% of our U.S. teammates participate in our TSPP, which drives an ownership mindset that influences how we invest and serve our customers.

Our Team

Our goal is to provide teammates with fulfilling, long-term careers. Most of our workforce consists of full-time employees, but we also employ part-time and seasonal teammates.

Full-time teammates: Work 30+ hours weekly and are eligible for full benefits.

Part-time teammates: Work under 30 hours weekly and may qualify for limited benefits based on hours worked.

Seasonal/temporary teammates: Join for specific projects or interim needs, with limited durations.

Teammate Recruitment, Education and Development

We prioritize attracting and developing talented individuals with diverse backgrounds. Recruitment spans all levels, and our internal recruiting teams are vital in onboarding top talent. We have seen success hiring recent graduates, mid-level professionals and experienced industry leaders.

In 2025, we expanded our team by nearly 5,794 teammates through 43 acquisitions. Additionally, partnerships with colleges and a robust internship program enable us to cultivate new talent. Our commitment to learning is reflected in programs like Brown & Brown University (BBU), the Education Assistance Program, our Women-Led Mentorship Program and the Peer Partnership Program.

Teammate Benefits

We offer comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, disability, life insurance and 401(k) plans. Annually, we refine these offerings based on teammate feedback to ensure we meet their needs. In 2025, there were no widespread layoffs or pay cuts as a result of external factors, such as the economy or natural disasters. Flexible work arrangements, financial aid through the Disaster Relief Foundation and a focus on well-being exemplify our commitment to teammates and their families.

Teammate Engagement

To foster engagement, we gather anonymous feedback annually. In 2025, 92% of teammates rated Brown & Brown a Great Place to Work®, making it our seventh consecutive year being Great Place to Work Certified. Our meritocracy encourages teammates to rise based on their performance, supported by a culture that prioritizes health, well-being and inclusion.

Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging

We believe having a team that is diverse in thought, experience and skills results in teammate empowerment and high performance. An empowered team helps to positively impact our customer service and community involvement. As part of our strategy, we continue to evolve and augment our Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging ("DIB") advisory council, which is composed of numerous teammates and leaders with different backgrounds, work experiences and skill sets. The mission of the DIB advisory council is assisting with recruiting and the development of inclusive relationships. The DIB advisory council is overseen and guided by our chief people officer.

8

Our DIB advisory council evaluates our Company's current strengths and opportunities for development by initiating teammate surveys, listening sessions, group focus sessions and training modalities, including a course for all teammates focused on understanding and managing unconscious bias. In 2022, we began establishing Teammate Resource Groups (each, a "TRG") that are each founded around one identity.

We now have 13 TRGs, which meet internally, empower one another, host events and are expected to make recommendations on how our Company can improve policies, impact recruitment and continue to be a strong part of the community.

To offer teammates flexibility to observe any day during the year to recognize their culture or heritage, we offer an additional floating holiday known as Culture Day.

Brown & Brown does not tolerate discrimination in any form concerning any aspect of employment. The Company has an established a policy that recruitment, hiring, transfers, promotions, terminations, compensation and benefits practices be without regard to race, color, religion, absence of religious affiliation, national origin, ethnicity, age, disability, perception of disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, gender orientation, marital status, service in our armed forces, veteran status in our armed forces, political activity or political party affiliation.

In addition, the Company monitors the representation of women and racial and ethnic minorities, because we believe diversity helps us build better teams, facilitate innovation and improve our customer experience. We discuss our gender and minority profile periodically with our board of directors and continue to strive to further diversify our workforce and strengthen our culture.

Teammate Health and Well-Being

Our top priority is holistic well-being—physical, emotional, social and financial. We believe that healthy teammates provide better support to their families, their communities and our customers, which results in our continued success as a Company. We encourage teammates to stay active, maintain a healthy work-life balance, volunteer in their local communities and prioritize their mental and physical health. This includes regular communication with teammates about the importance of physical, mental and financial wellness. In addition, our chief executive officer shares biweekly video updates to connect with our teammates and encourage the importance of health and well-being.

Our Company encourages individuals to engage in activities that promote good mental health and, when needed, to seek out help from friends, teammates, family and medical professionals.

Brown & Brown teammates have access to coaching, therapy, and work life services, through a teammate assistance program. The program allows teammates to find confidential care for their emotional and mental health, how, when, and where they need it. The benefit includes a fixed number of no-cost sessions of coaching or therapy per person, per year, access to a deep repository of resources, videos, and articles on mental and physical health, as well as a suite of work-life services that provide advice on legal and financial issues, identity theft, and dependent care services.

We also have a Mental Health Allies group, which consists of a group of teammate volunteers that are ready to serve as points of contact for our mental health resources, as well as a support system for our teammates. Mental Health Allies complete mental health first aid training offered by the National Council for Behavioral Health. These teammates are available to listen impartially and support teammates, while also raising awareness regarding the importance of mental health and wellness. Mental Health Allies are not diagnosticians or emergency providers, but rather conduits who may assist teammates in finding the appropriate resources in a time of need.

In addition, our campus in Daytona Beach, Florida, as well as many of our leased facilities have been designed with teammates in mind. Open floorplans encourage regular movement and interaction among our teammates, promoting a productive, collaborative work environment. Offices and workstations are equipped with ergonomic furniture and sit-stand desks, intentionally selected to support teammates' physical health. Our offices are embracing open floorplans as we enter into new leases or refresh office space.

To assist those who have found themselves in financial hardships, we provide discounted services and products through our Brown & Brown $avings Center to both teammates and the public.

Workplace Safety

Providing a safe environment is a core responsibility we take seriously. Comprehensive formal safety policies address hazardous conditions, emergencies and violence prevention.

In 2025, there were no work-related fatalities and 39 injuries or occupational diseases, as determined based on the number of claims made under our workers’ compensation policies, excluding claims that were closed and for which no payment was made.

By prioritizing safety and health, we ensure a secure and productive workplace for all teammates.
