Erie Indemnity reported second-quarter 2026 earnings per share of $3.45, topping the $3.35 consensus estimate by roughly 3%. Revenue came in at $1.09 billion against an estimate of $1.09 billion, a narrow but clean beat. The company also lifted its quarterly dividend by 7%, a signal that management sees the current momentum as sustainable.
