NMIH: NMI Holdings Posts Q3 FY2026 Net Income of $102.6M as Shares Drop Nearly 11%

Share

Ticker: NMIH | Filed: 2026-11-06 (Form 10-Q) | Price: $39.41 | Today's Change: -10.97%


What Happened

NMI Holdings Inc filed its quarterly report (Form 10-Q) with the SEC on November 6, 2026, covering the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. The company reported revenues of $525.7 million, net income of $102.6 million, basic earnings per share of $3.78, and diluted earnings per share of $3.72 for the quarter. Despite what are headline-level profitable results, the stock is trading sharply lower today, falling nearly 11%, suggesting the market's reaction is being driven by factors beyond the top-line revenue figure — whether that is forward guidance, reserve levels, or broader macro concerns not fully captured in the structured filing data provided.

Why It Matters

For investors, the immediate and striking development here is not the reported earnings themselves — net income of over $100 million and a diluted EPS of $3.72 represent a solidly profitable quarter for a private mortgage insurer — but rather the severity of the market's negative reaction. A decline of nearly 11% in a single session on earnings day is a significant signal that investors found something in the full 10-Q filing, or in any accompanying management commentary, that meaningfully disappointed relative to expectations. This follows StockWatch's existing initiating coverage on NMIH, and the gap between the reported share price of $39.41 and that prior analytical framework is now considerably wider following today's move.

Key figures to anchor the picture:

  • Revenues: $525,704,000
  • Net Income: $102,559,000
  • Basic EPS: $3.78
  • Diluted EPS: $3.72

Analysis

On its face, NMI Holdings' Q3 FY2026 results are those of a profitable, revenue-generating business. Revenues of $525.7 million and net income above $100 million point to continued operational health in the private mortgage insurance segment. However, the near-11% single-day selloff is a sharp divergence that demands scrutiny. In the mortgage insurance industry, what matters most to investors is often not just current profitability but forward-looking risk indicators: credit quality of the insured portfolio, delinquency trends, reserve adequacy, and sensitivity to any softening in housing or employment. The structured XBRL data provided from this filing does not include those granular risk metrics, meaning the market's reaction is likely being informed by details within the full 10-Q narrative — potential increases in notices of default, shifts in new insurance written, or management commentary on the macro outlook — that would warrant a careful read of the complete filing.

What to watch next:

  • The trajectory of delinquency rates and loss reserves in NMI's insured portfolio
  • Any updated guidance or commentary on new insurance written (NIW) volume
  • How this quarter's realized results compare to sell-side consensus estimates, which the structured data does not provide
  • Whether the stock stabilizes near current levels or continues to reprice

NMIH: NMI Holdings Inc — Compounding Book Value at a Discount, Driven by Capital Returns

Valuation disconnect on a proven earnings base: At $39.38 with trailing EPS of $5.08, NMIH trades at roughly 7.8x earnings and a market cap of $3.0B against a book value that has compounded consistently since its 2011 founding. A 0.53 beta and a 52-week range of $34.84–$46.74 frame a stock that has de-rated alongside the broader mortgage insurance complex despite stable credit performance. Capital return is the dominant near-term driver: With a 75.22M share count and only 73.91M shar
