Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously disclosed, Assurant, Inc. (the “Company”) has initiated plans to sell its Miami, Florida office (the “Property”). The Company has submitted an agreement to sell the Property (the “Agreement”) to a potential acquiror, which is subject to review, approval, execution and other conditions. If the transaction is consummated pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company expects to record a gain in 2024 above the current carrying value of $44.4 million as of June 30, 2023. The Company does not anticipate that the gain will impact its capital deployment priorities. The entry into a definitive agreement and the consummation of the transaction are subject to significant uncertainty. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed or that any transaction will be approved or consummated.
The Company currently expects its Global Housing segment to record less than $50 million pre-tax of reportable catastrophes for the third quarter 2023. Estimates for reportable catastrophes are preliminary and subject to any additional developments and events that may occur for the remainder of third quarter 2023. Hurricane Idalia accounted for over half of total estimated pre-tax losses, primarily within lender-placed products from heavy wind across Western Florida. The remainder of estimated losses are mainly related to wildfires in Hawaii, also largely within lender-placed. The Company’s reportable catastrophes include individual catastrophic events that generate losses in excess of $5 million, pre-tax, net of reinsurance and client profit sharing adjustments and including reinstatement and other premiums.
The Company will report third quarter 2023 results on October 31, 2023, after the market closes.
The information being furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as may be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filing.

The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the Company’s future plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or other developments. For additional information on factors that could affect the Company’s actual results, please refer to the factors identified in the reports that the Company files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including the risk factors identified in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
