"I’m very pleased with our overall results and the progress we’ve made as a company this year," said Tom Gayner, Chief Executive Officer. "Revenues and adjusted operating income of our businesses are both up for the year and for the quarter. We’re seeing improvement in our insurance combined ratio.

•Operating revenues increased 7% for the quarter and 4% year to date.
•Operating income, which is affected by market movements in our equity portfolio, decreased 26% for the quarter and 23% year to date.
•Adjusted operating income, which excludes the impact of market movements in our equity portfolio, increased 24% for the quarter and 7% year to date.
•For Markel Insurance, our cornerstone business:
◦Underwriting gross premium volume increased 11% for the quarter and 4% year to date.
◦Operating revenues increased 6% for the quarter and 3% year to date.
◦Adjusted operating income increased 55% for the quarter and 11% year to date due to increases in underwriting profitability and net investment income.
◦The combined ratio improved by more than four points in the quarter to 93%. For the year-to-date period, Markel Insurance’s combined ratio was consistent period-over-period at 95%.
•Comprehensive income to shareholders was over $2 billion year to date.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Consolidated adjusted operating income, which excludes net investment gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and impairment of goodwill, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe adjusted operating income is generally an accurate representation of the operating performance of our businesses in our periodic results. Net investment gains and losses are predominantly derived from our investments in publicly traded equity securities and include significant unrealized gains and losses from market value movements. We believe that net investment gains and losses, whether realized from sales or unrealized from market value movements, are distortive in understanding the short-term operating performance of our businesses. We do not view amortization of intangible assets and impairment of goodwill, which arise from purchase accounting for acquisitions, as ongoing costs of operating our businesses, and therefore exclude those amounts from our adjusted operating income metric.

Consolidated adjusted operating income, which excludes net investment gains and losses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and impairment of goodwill, is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes adjusted operating income is generally an accurate representation of the operating performance of our businesses in our periodic results. Net investment gains and losses are predominantly derived from the Company's investments in publicly traded equity securities and include significant unrealized gains and losses from market value movements. The Company believes that net investment gains and losses, whether realized from sales or unrealized from market value movements, are distortive in understanding the short-term operating performance of its businesses.
