Title segment operating revenues improved $105.7 million (19 percent) in the fourth quarter 2025, driven by strong performances by our direct and agency title operations with operating revenue growth of 18 percent and 20 percent, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter 2024. Segment total operating expenses increased $85.9 million (16 percent) compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by the $43.9 million (19 percent) higher agency retention expenses and $40.3 million (15 percent) increased combined employee costs and other operating expenses, consistent with title revenue growth. As a percentage of operating revenues, total employee costs and other operating expenses for the title segment improved to 47 percent in the fourth quarter 2025 compared to 49 percent in the fourth quarter 2024, primarily due to increased title operating revenues.
Title loss expense increased $2.3 million (11 percent) in the fourth quarter 2025, compared to the fourth quarter 2024, primarily driven by higher title revenues. As a percentage of title operating revenues, the title loss expense improved to 3.4 percent in the fourth quarter 2025, compared to 3.7 percent in the prior year quarter, primarily influenced by our continued overall favorable claims experience.
Net realized and unrealized losses in the fourth quarter 2025 were primarily related to net losses of $4.7 million on fair value changes of equity securities investments, $2.9 million on disposal of a subsidiary and $1.0 million on an acquisition liability adjustment, partially offset by net gains of $4.9 million on the sale of securities investments. Net realized and unrealized gains in the fourth quarter 2024 were primarily related to $1.4 million of net gains on fair value changes of equity securities investments and a $2.4 million gain on an acquisition liability adjustment, partially offset by a $0.8 million loss on disposal of a subsidiary.
In addition to the above net realized and unrealized gains and losses, the title segment’s adjusted pretax income for the fourth quarters 2025 and 2024 included total other non-GAAP adjustments of $6.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively, related to acquisition intangible asset amortization, office closure costs and severance expenses (refer to Appendix A for details).

Appendix ANon-GAAP Adjustments
Management uses a variety of financial and operational measurements other than its financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) to analyze its performance. These include: (1) adjusted revenues, which are reported revenues adjusted for net realized and unrealized gains and losses and (2) adjusted pretax income and adjusted net income, which are reported pretax income and reported net income after earnings from noncontrolling interests, respectively, adjusted for net realized and unrealized gains and losses, acquired intangible asset amortization, and office closure costs and severance expenses. Adjusted diluted earnings per share (adjusted diluted EPS) is calculated using adjusted net income divided by the diluted average weighted outstanding shares. Adjusted pretax margin is calculated using adjusted pretax income divided by adjusted total revenues. Management views these measures as important performance measures of core profitability for its operations and as key components of its internal financial reporting. Management believes investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses.
Below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used by management to the most directly comparable GAAP measures for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in millions, except shares, per share amounts and pretax margins, and amounts may not add as presented due to rounding).
