- CNA's underwriting income fell as its combined ratio increased 4.2 percentage points to 97%, reflecting higher underlying losses and catastrophe costs.
- Hotels' adjusted EBITDA rose 25% to $86 million, supported by stronger Miami and Arlington performance, partially offsetting earnings pressure elsewhere.
