Lemonade will acquire auto insurer Metromile in an all-stock transaction for just over $200 million net of cash.
The deal is anticipated to make Liberty Mutual the second largest independent agency carrier in the U.S., adding $2.3 billion in premium and State Auto’s network of approximately 3,400 independent agencies.
The acquisition will allow SafeAuto to grow its platform in the non-standard space. Additionally, Progressive finalized the acquisition of transportation insurer Protective Insurance Corp. ahead of schedule.
When the transaction closes in early 2021, Allstate will become the fifth largest independent agency carrier.
