The insurer reported Q2 earnings of $1.81 per share, surpassing analyst estimates by $0.21, driven by a 48.1% rise in net investment income linked to its Corebridge Financial stake and fixed-income securities sales.

CFRA reaffirmed a Buy rating for AIG with a $90 price target, citing strong fundamentals and consistent dividends. However, insider sentiment remains bearish, with 59 executives selling shares. Analysts have revised earnings forecasts downward by 2.8% in three months, reflecting cautious outlooks. Goldman Sachs cut its price target to $85, balancing concerns over loss ratios against improved investment income. The stock remains 11.2% below the median analyst price target of $89.

AIG's North American Commercial segment saw a 4% increase in premiums to $2.9 billion, with underwriting income surging 58% to $301 million. The International Commercial division also grew premiums by 2% to $2.3 billion. Conversely, the Global Personal segment saw a 11% drop in premiums to $1.7 billion, though underwriting income tripled to $25 million.
