...Fidelity National Financial Inc. (FNF), the largest U.S. title insurer, climbed the most in a year after profit beat analysts’ estimates on a rebound in sales to commercial real estate clients.
By Dan Kraut - Jul 26, 2011 4:04 PM ET .
The insurer jumped 90 cents, or 5.7 percent, to $16.66 at 4 p.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. Fidelity National has advanced 22 percent this year, the biggest gain in the 24-compamy KBW Insurance Index.
Second-quarter earnings per share of 36 cents beat by 5 cents the average estimate of four analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Net income was $80 million, compared with $139.6 million a year earlier when the insurer recorded an after-tax gain of $63 million tied to the sale of a claims-management unit, the Jacksonville, Florida-based company said late yesterday in a statement.
“The strength of our commercial business” aided results amid a slump in the residential market, Chairman William P. Foley said in the statement.
Title insurers use their records and public documents to verify a seller is the property’s true owner and that the real estate is free from liens. Revenue from the commercial segment climbed 38 percent to $93.8 million from $68.1 million a year earlier.
