Radian: P&C Results Cloud Q2 But Upside Remains

Radian Group remains a “Buy,” supported by resilient mortgage insurance earnings and strong capital returns despite a Q2 earnings miss. RDN's diversification into specialty P&C (Inigo) introduces short-term margin pressure but is expected to improve long-term earnings resilience. Shareholder returns are robust, with a 2.6% dividend yield and accelerating buybacks, supported by healthy leverage and cash flow.
