CNO Financial: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors
Captive distribution and a growing agent force give CNO Financial a competitive moat that's difficult to replicate in the middle-market insurance space.
CNO Financial reported a 47% increase in operating earnings per diluted share to $1.90 for its third-quarter 2026 earnings call, signaling strong operating earnings growth. The company's focus on the middle-market provides a steady foundation for growth, as evidenced by the 41% increase in Medicare Supplement NAP, which has grown more than 60% over the last 12 months.
