Liberty Mutual also put a pretax catastrophe loss range of between $250 million and $350 million from Hurricane Milton, to be reflected in the fourth quarter.

Q3 Net income is estimated to be about $900 million, and $3 billion for the year as of the end of Q3, Liberty Mutual said. A year ago at the Q3 mark, LMHC recorded net income of $219 million for the quarter and an income loss of $441 million for the year.
