On August 3, 2015, post-market, Allstate announced disappointing second quarter 2015 financial results, reporting a third consecutive quarter of increased auto claims frequency, a 57% decline in operating income, and operating earnings per share that were $0.34 below analysts' consensus estimate. Following Allstate's earnings release, the Company's Chief Executive Officer stated that the lower quarterly profit was "driven by a deterioration in auto insurance margins" and explained that "[a]uto insurance margins decreased as higher claim frequency and severity more than offset average auto insurance price increases."
As a result of these revelations, Allstate's share price fell $7.04, or 10.15%, to close at $62.34 on August 4, 2015.
