RLI Corp. Earnings Due at 4:10 PM ET: Six-Quarter Beat Streak on the Line
As seen on the 24/7 Wall St. homepage on October 19, 2026.
A six-quarter EPS beat streak goes on the line at 4:10 PM ET, with consensus at $0.51 and $467.1 million in revenue. The last four reports cleared estimates by 6% to 19%, so anything in line would read as a slowdown in specialty and excess-and-surplus pricing.

RLI Corp. reports after the close on October 19, 2026, with results confirmed for 4:10 PM ET. Wall Street wants earnings per share of $0.51, a bar the company has cleared comfortably in recent quarters.
The beat streak now stands at six consecutive quarters, which raises the expectations game. A result that merely meets consensus would register as a deceleration in the specialty and excess-and-surplus insurance pricing environment the company operates in.
The excess-and-surplus lines market has driven the outsized beats in recent periods, so commentary on pricing trends and underwriting margins carries as much weight as the headline numbers. A beat at the low end of the historical range still extends the streak.
With the report confirmed and just hours away, the window to position ahead of the announcement is narrow. The six-quarter streak sets a high bar to clear if RLI wants to avoid a result that reads as a step backward, even if the numbers come in above estimates.
