Berkshire Hathaway (NEOE:BRK) Combined Ratio % Explanation

Combined Ratio % measures the money flowing out of an insurance company in the form of dividends, expenses and losses. A ratio below 100 percent suggests that the company is making an underwriting profit, while a ratio above 100 percent means that it paid more in the claim than it received. However, a ratio above 100 percent does not necessarily mean the company is losing money because the investment income is not included in the calculation.

Berkshire Hathaway is a holding company with a wide array of subsidiaries engaged in diverse activities. The firm's core business segment is insurance, run primarily through Geico, Berkshire Hathaway Reinsurance Group, and Berkshire Hathaway Primary Group. Berkshire has used the excess cash thrown off from these and its other operations over the years to acquire Burlington Northern Santa Fe (railroad), Berkshire Hathaway Energy (utilities and energy distributors), and the firms that make up its manufacturing, service, and retailing operations (which include five of Berkshire's largest noninsurance pretax earnings generators: Precision Castparts, Lubrizol, Clayton Homes, Marmon, and IMC/ISCAR). The conglomerate is unique in that it is run on a completely decentralized basis.
