From the latest earnings call
- CEO Powell Brown said Retail exceeded expectations, while Specialty Distribution fell short amid carrier competition, a loan-portfolio onboarding delay and lower flood claims revenue.
- CFO Andrew Watts said Brown & Brown expects organic growth excluding contingents to improve in both divisions in 2027 and raised its Accession synergy targets.

Total pay is as the Summary Compensation Table states it; actually paid revalues the year’s share awards
at its end, as the SEC’s pay-versus-performance rule asks. $100 invested is what $100 in the company’s

Ownership is the proxy’s own table: the directors and officers as a group, and every holder of 5% or more.

Brown & Brown, founded in 1939, is headquartered in Daytona Beach and is led by Chief Executive Officer and President J. Powell Brown. It is an insurance intermediary: it helps customers obtain insurance rather than generally taking on the insurer’s underwriting risk itself.
The company sells insurance products and related services mainly in property and casualty insurance and employee benefits. Its Retail segment serves commercial, public and quasi-public entities, professionals and individuals. It also provides non-insurance warranty and service-risk-management offerings through automobile and recreational-vehicle dealer-services businesses.
