Igloo narrows FY2025 loss as embedded insurance bet edges closer to breakeven

Insurtech firm Igloo has narrowed its fiscal 2025 loss as its embedded insurance strategy edges towards breakeven, according to audited accounts. Revenue increased 45.9% year-on-year to SGD80.9 million, while net loss fell 60.4% to US$6.7 million. Top-line growth of US$19.8 million was achieved without a proportional rise in operating expenses, demonstrating the operating leverage the company attributes to its AI-native infrastructure.

Igloo's operating system for insurance allows insurers and digital platforms to build, distribute, and manage policies online, creating the embedded insurance market. With operations in Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia, Igloo processes over 100 million policies monthly and has facilitated more than 2.2 billion policies cumulatively.

The company's platform enables partners to launch insurance products in days rather than months, helping to reduce fixed costs. Igloo aims to achieve adjusted EBITDA breakeven by the end of 2026, targeting sustained revenue growth and reduced operating expenditure.
