Insurer Nationwide finished 2025 with net operating income up 37% compared with 2024, to $4.3 billion as total sales and premiums were up 7% to a record $73.2 billion.
The Columbus, Ohio-based mutual insurance company—entering its 100th year of operation in 2026—released its 2025 operating results late last week.
During a year marked by wildfires and severe convective storms, Nationwide said it paid more than $20.2 billion in claims and benefits to policyholders in 2025. Nationwide completed its buy of Allstate Benefits’ group health business for $1.25 billion in July 2025. The move expanded the company’s ability to sell stop loss insurance—which protects employers who self-fund health insurance plans from excess losses—to small businesses.
Nationwide said Nationwide Financial recorded its highest levels of sales and earnings in 2025.
Total adjusted capital rose to $32.8 billion, the highest level ever.
“Our capital position reflects strong performance and disciplined use of capital across our business portfolio,” CFO Tim Frommeyer said in a statement. “All of our business lines delivered strong earnings, driving further diversification across our portfolio and fueling significant benefit to our capital position.”
