Analyst projections of the future price of MGIC Investment Corp stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

New insurance written rose 8.5% year on year to $17.8 billion in the second quarter, its highest level since the third quarter of 2022. Insurance in force also grew 2.6% to $304.8 billion, enlarging the premium-generating base. (PR Newswire, The Motley Fool)
MGIC has a substantial buffer against credit stress, with $2.7 billion of excess over PMIERs requirements. Its reinsurance programme reduced required assets by about 52%, while a new transaction adds up to $168 million of protection on eligible 2027 business. (PR Newswire, Zacks)
The company is converting resilient earnings into shareholder returns: second-quarter annualised return on equity was 14.5%, operating expenses were tracking towards the low end of guidance, and the board authorised a further $750 million buyback. It also raised the quarterly dividend to $0.17 per share. (PR Newswire, The Motley Fool)
Growth remains constrained by expensive housing and high borrowing costs. Second-quarter revenue fell 2.9% year on year, while management said stretched affordability was limiting mortgage origination growth and competitive pricing was pressuring premium yields. (StockStory, PR Newswire)
Credit performance is normalising rather than improving across the book. The primary delinquency rate rose to 2.37% from 2.21% a year earlier, and management expects seasonal delinquency increases in the second half, which could lift claims and weaken reserve releases. (The Motley Fool, PR Newswire)
Capital returns are running ahead of recent earnings, which may reduce flexibility if housing or credit conditions deteriorate. Buybacks and dividends represented 124% of net income over the four quarters to the second quarter, while higher payouts could leave less capital available to absorb future losses.
