Financial statements are prepared under Turkish statutory insurance accounting regulations (Sigortacılık Muhasebe ve Finansal Raporlama Mevzuatı), not IFRS 17. SEDDK has exempted insurance companies from inflation accounting, creating a comparability boundary with IFRS reporters applying IAS 29 hyperinflation adjustments. FY2024 figures reflect a restatement of FY2023 comparatives due to a change in commission deferral accounting policy. FY2022 is a partial operating year (first policy issued 17 June 2022).

📊 Financial model. The company's economics depend on a float-driven investment model: the combined ratio of approximately 108% in FY2024 (improved from 122% in FY2023) indicates that underwriting alone does not generate profit, with investment income from hard-currency assets and government securities bridging the gap. Motor lines (MTPL and Casco) represent approximately 90% of GWP, creating significant concentration risk. The operating expense ratio of 2.9% of sales versus a sector average of 6.8% reflects a structural cost advantage enabled by just 183 employees.

🚀 Growth and outlook. Hepiyi's distribution strategy pairs Turkey's broadest independent agency network (9,000 agents by December 2025) with an end-to-end digital platform processing 30 million quotes annually, underpinned by a contractual Agent Manifesto guaranteeing lifetime working rights and portfolio ownership. DOHOL's December 2025 investor presentation values the company at USD 785 million using a 5.0× price-to-book multiple, and multiple equity research houses identify it as the strongest IPO candidate in the Doğan Group. Key risks include MTPL tariff regulation, capital consumption from rapid growth, reinsurance cost volatility, and the absence of an independent credit rating.

Corporate profile

🏢 Incorporation and domicile. Hepiyi Sigorta A.Ş. is a Turkish joint stock company (Anonim Şirket) established on 29 September 2021, with its trade registry publication (Ticaret Sicil Gazetesi) dated 30 September 2021. The registered headquarters are located at Fatih Sultan Mehmet Mah. Poligon Cad. Buyaka 2 Sitesi No: 8 Kule 1 Kat:21, 34771 Ümraniye, İstanbul. The company was originally incorporated as Doğan Trend Sigorta A.Ş. and changed its legal name to Hepiyi Sigorta A.Ş. on 30 May 2022, with the change published in the Trade Registry Gazette.

📜 Licensing and regulatory status. Hepiyi Sigorta obtained its non-life insurance operating license from the Insurance and Private Pension Regulation and Supervision Agency (Sigortacılık ve Özel Emeklilik Düzenleme ve Denetleme Kurumu, SEDDK) on 28 April 2022. The license covers a broad set of non-life branches, including accident, health, motor own damage, motor third-party liability (MTPL), fire and natural disasters, general liability, financial loss, and legal protection.

🏛️ Ownership structure. As of 31 December 2024, the controlling shareholder is Öncü Girişim Sermayesi Yatırım Ortaklığı A.Ş. with an 85% stake, while the remaining 15% is held by other individuals. The ultimate parent entity is Doğan Şirketler Grubu Holding A.Ş.

👥 Board and leadership. The chairman of the board is Çağlar Göğüş, with Eren Sarıçoğlu serving as vice chairman and Zeynep Tandoğan as a board member. The chief executive officer and general manager is Şenol Ortaç.

🔍 Independent audit. The FY2024 statutory financial statements were audited by Deloitte Turkey (DRT Bağımsız Denetim ve Serbest Muhasebeci Mali Müşavirlik A.Ş.), which issued an unqualified opinion under the insurance accounting and financial reporting regulations framework (Sigortacılık Muhasebe ve Finansal Raporlama Mevzuatı). The FY2023 statements were audited by a different firm, also with an unqualified opinion.

Business model

🏗️ Distribution architecture. Hepiyi Sigorta operates a hybrid agency-led distribution model augmented by digital enablement. In FY2023 management reported a nationwide agency footprint exceeding 6,500 agencies, having added 1,808 new agencies during that year alongside a digital transformation program. By FY2024 the agency network had grown to over 8,000 agencies, generating 2.1 million policies and reaching 1.9 million customers. This trajectory indicates that rapid customer and policy growth is driven primarily by a scaled intermediary network rather than a purely direct-to-consumer model.

🚗 Motor line emphasis. The company's FY2024 management commentary highlights strong positioning in compulsory motor liability (traffic/MTPL) and motor own damage (casco), claiming approximately 6% market share in traffic policies (described as the third-largest insurer by policy count) and approximately 4.5% in casco (ninth-largest). These are company-stated figures; independent validation against Türkiye Sigorta Birliği (TSB) company-level datasets was not completed because TSB's detailed downloads require gated access.

🤝 Doğan Group ecosystem. The FY2024 notes define Doğan Holding group companies as related parties, disclosing both operating expenses and premium writings with specific group entities including Doğan Trend Otomotiv Ticaret Hizmet ve Teknoloji A.Ş. and Suzuki Motorlu Araçlar Paz. A.Ş. Management describes a product collaboration with Doğan Trend Otomotiv for a branded comprehensive motor product ("Marka Kasko") aligned to vehicle brands such as MG and Suzuki. The specific related-party premium amounts disclosed in the notes are small relative to total FY2024 gross written premiums, but they document an embedded affinity-distribution channel within the group network.

Financial performance

⚠️ Operating history constraint. Hepiyi Sigorta began writing policies on 17 June 2022, meaning FY2022 is structurally not comparable to a full run-rate year. Additionally, FY2024 disclosures reveal a change in accounting policy regarding commissions paid for premium collections: these commissions are now deferred, resulting in restatement of FY2023 balance sheet and income statement comparatives.

📊 Hepiyi Sigorta — statutory income statement summary, FY2022–FY2024, TRY

Metric (TRY)	FY2022*	FY2023	FY2024	Notes
Gross written premiums (GWP)	1,386,140,736	6,213,502,715	17,431,681,550	Startup ramp visible in GWP trajectory.
Net written premiums (NWP)**	1,136,718,115	4,766,814,072	14,314,305,983	Written premiums after reinsurance and SGK transfers.
Net earned premiums	154,597,774	2,754,813,178	8,994,610,354	FY2022 earned premiums mechanically low due to large UPR buildup.
Technical (underwriting) balance	(20,632,698)	779,712,804	2,747,152,649	Includes investment income transferred from non-technical section per statutory format.
Investment income transferred to technical section	77,243,229	1,391,495,625	3,500,467,532	Critical to interpreting the technical balance.
Pre-tax profit	2,069,482	1,170,862,541	2,490,466,039	Profit scale-up is large relative to equity base.
Net income	2,069,482	895,795,436	1,896,359,641	FY2024 net income aligns with management headline of ~TRY 1.9bn.
* FY2022 is a partial operating year; first policy issued 17 June 2022. ** NWP as presented in the statutory technical account: written premiums net of reinsurance and SGK transfers.

💰 Investment income dominance. Investment income is structurally material to the company's profits. FY2024 net investment income totaled TRY 3.447bn (FY2023: TRY 1.906bn), driven primarily by bank deposit interest and foreign exchange gains, partially offset by investment management expenses and derivative losses. When the explicit investment income transfer is isolated, the technical result excluding investment allocation appears loss-making in both FY2023 and FY2024, a pattern consistent with the statutory design in which investment income is allocated to the technical section.

📈 High-inflation dynamics. This investment-income-subsidized underwriting pattern is typical in high-inflation, high-interest-rate environments where investment returns can temporarily offset pricing and acquisition costs, particularly in motor lines with regulated features and pooled risk components. FY2023 operational headlines corroborate the audited results: management reported approximately TRY 6bn in premium production, 1.2 million policies, and approximately TRY 1bn in pre-tax profit, aligning directionally with the audited FY2023 pre-tax figure of TRY 1.171bn.

🏦 Capital actions and dividends. In April 2022 the company executed a capital increase from TRY 175.6m to TRY 255.6m through a cash injection, registered in April 2022. Paid-in capital rose further to TRY 749.9m in FY2024, with nominal share capital reaching TRY 805.1m. Regarding dividends, the FY2024 notes indicate that profit distribution is decided by the General Assembly and that the prior year's net income was not distributed but transferred to retained earnings after legal reserve allocations.

📂 Deferred acquisition costs. The balance sheet carries a large deferred acquisition costs line item (Ertelenmiş Üretim Giderleri), which increased to TRY 1.123bn in FY2024 from TRY 419.5m in FY2023, consistent with the disclosed change in commission deferral accounting policy.

Reserving and reinsurance

🔎 IBNR as a key audit matter. The FY2024 independent auditor identifies the estimation of incurred but not reported claims (gerçekleşmiş ancak rapor edilmemiş hasarlar, IBNR) as a key audit matter, noting net IBNR of approximately TRY 7.552bn at 31 December 2024. This level is quantitatively dominant relative to reported outstanding claims and represents a core risk driver for underwriting volatility and capital adequacy.

⚖️ Claims discounting and MTPL concentration. Net outstanding claims reserves are heavily discounted, with a net discount of TRY 4.206bn for FY2024 at an annual rate of 35% (the same rate applied in FY2023). Branch-level net outstanding claims are concentrated in motor third-party liability (Kara Araçları Sorumluluk, MTPL): TRY 4.738bn after discounting, from a pre-discount net position of TRY 8.900bn. This concentration is consistent with the company's stated motor leadership focus and indicates that MTPL dominates reserve risk, including long-tailed settlement dynamics.

🏊 Regulatory risk pool. The statutory notes describe the high-risk insured pool (Riskli Sigortalılar Havuzu) mechanism for MTPL, which operates a two-stage premium and claims sharing algorithm across insurers. The company uses a Türkiye Motorlu Taşıt Bürosu actuarial evaluation report to inform IBNR assumptions for pool-related exposure. This pooling mechanism reduces underwriting discretion on the riskiest MTPL business but can introduce loss emergence volatility and model-risk dependence on sector-wide ratios. In FY2022 the company disclosed net IBNR additions to outstanding claims reserves of TRY 165.6m and net discounting of TRY 61.4m using an annual 22% parameter under then-effective circulars.

📤 Reinsurance cession. Premium cession is observable in the financial statements: FY2024 ceded premiums totaled TRY 2.119bn against GWP of TRY 17.432bn, while FY2023 ceded premiums were TRY 1.078bn against GWP of TRY 6.214bn. Reinsurance participation is also visible in reserve movements, with gross and reinsurer-share movements disclosed for the unearned premium reserve. Treaty counterparties, attachment points, and quota-share versus excess-of-loss detail are not disclosed in the publicly available notes.

🌍 Catastrophe and macro risk. The FY2023 activity report references the February 2023 earthquake disaster as a major external shock during that year. In a Turkish non-life portfolio with motor and property exposure, catastrophe risk remains a material tail risk, while high-inflation pressure is implicitly reflected in discount rate usage and reserve mechanics.

Solvency and regulatory framework

✅ Capital adequacy. Capital adequacy is calculated under Turkish capital adequacy regulations for insurance and pension companies. As of 31 December 2024 the company reports a capital surplus (sermaye fazlası) of TRY 601.1m and a capital adequacy ratio of 119.03%.

🏛️ Hepiyi Sigorta — capital adequacy metrics, FY2022–FY2024

Metric	FY2022	FY2023	FY2024	Notes
Capital adequacy ratio	—	—	119.03%	Reported in FY2024 notes.
Capital surplus (TRY)	—	—	601,124,735	Reported as sermaye fazlası.

📑 Statutory accounting basis. The FY2024 audit opinion frames the financial statements as prepared under insurance accounting and financial reporting regulations (Sigortacılık Muhasebe ve Finansal Raporlama Mevzuatı), applying Turkish Financial Reporting Standards (TFRS) for matters not otherwise regulated. The income statement follows a written-premium-based format (GWP, ceded premiums, SGK transfers) rather than the IFRS 17 insurance revenue construct. The IFRS Foundation's jurisdiction profile for Türkiye notes that, while IFRS is adopted for public interest entities generally, insurance and reinsurance entities are carved out from the standard IFRS requirement, consistent with continued sector-specific statutory reporting.

🔄 Inflation accounting boundary. In the FY2024 notes the company cites a 6 December 2024 SEDDK circular (2024/32) confirming that insurance, reinsurance, and pension companies would not apply inflation accounting in 2025. SEDDK's 2024 annual report also addresses inflation accounting in the insurance sector as an active supervisory topic. Because Türkiye is classified as hyperinflationary under IAS 29 for IFRS reporters, this exemption creates a material comparability boundary between listed industrial IFRS reporters applying IAS 29 adjustments and insurance statutory reporters subject to SEDDK sector decisions.

🏅 Credit ratings. No public credit rating disclosures were identified in the FY2024 audited statutory filings.
