$LMND ran 30% yesterday post earnings. But I think they're just...

$LMND is doing what no legacy insurer has got close to doing - build a vertically integrated, AI driven insurance platform.
They're much more than an InsureTech company. They're a software company offering insurance.
$LMND have grown their IFP by 845% in 4 years. In fact, $LMND has grown faster over the last year than $ALL has done in the last 5 years.
But what's more important here is:
- $LMND still has won less than 0.1% of the market share in most verticals.
- $LMND customers are young, digitally savvy, and loyal.
- Cross selling has not really begun yet.
- Auto Insurance: If $LMND capture just less than 1% of the US auto market, they will more than 4x their IFP. - Cross Selling: One app, one login, one claims process. - International Expansion: $LMND's tech stack can expand across borders far quicker than legacy.
$LMND recently reworked their reinsurance program, reducing reliance from 55% down to 20%.
This shows their confidence in their underwriting models. They've got to this stage in 10 years.
Imagine how good the models will be in another 10 years. Loss ratios down, revenue growth up, margins up.
$LMND margins increase with scale. Legacy incumbents margins can't increase with scale. Why?
Headcount is the main culprit.
$PGR IFP growth 2021-2024: 60% (and 35% headcount growth)
$LMND IFP growth 2021-2024: 130% (and 2% headcount growth)
