Brown & Brown reported a higher second-quarter profit, driven by growth in commission and fees revenue.
The insurance company on Monday reported a profit of $288 million, or 84 cents a share, for the quarter ended June 30. That compares with a profit of $231 million, or 78 cents a share, in the same period a year earlier.
Stripping out certain one-time items, the company reported adjusted earnings of $1.07 a share. Analysts surveyed by FactSet were expecting $1.08 a share.
Revenue rose to $1.68 billion from $1.29 billion. Analysts were expecting $1.71 billion in revenue.
Shares fell 5.3% to $66.00 in after-hours trading. The stock closed up 3% to $69.70, down 13% year-to-date.
Most of the company's topline came from commission and fees revenue, which rose to $1.65 billion from $1.25 billion. Investment revenue and income from other sources fell to $22 million from $36 million.
"We are pleased with our financial results for the quarter and have great momentum as we head into the back half of the year," Chief Executive Officer J. Powell Brown said.
