MAYFIELD VILLAGE, OHIO, June 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Progressive Corporation (NYSE:PGR) (the \u201cCompany\u201d) announced that Pat Callahan intends to retire from his role as the Company\u2019s Personal Lines President after almost 24 years with the Company. Mr. Callahan will continue to serve in his current role until January 2027, and will continue to advise the Company on a part-time basis afterward. The Company will conduct an internal search for Mr. Callahan\u2019s successor.<\/p>\n

To support a smooth transition, Lori Niederst, currently CRM President, will move into a newly created role of Chief Personal Lines Officer, overseeing Personal Lines and CRM operations. Heather Day, currently General Manager, Customer Experience Strategy in the CRM organization, will move into the CRM President role in July.<\/p>\n

\u201cPat has been a critical force behind our growth to an $80 billion company while consistently achieving our goal of a 96 combined ratio. He has been an incredible teacher, partner and mentor to me, and I appreciate that he will continue to advise me and my team after he retires from his current role,\u201d said Tricia Griffith, the Company\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, \u201cAt the same time, I am excited about the future. Lori brings a wealth of experience to her new role, having been CRM President and Chief Human Resources Officer, and having held HR roles in Claims. Having time to learn from Pat will round out her experiences. Heather stepping into the CRM President role will provide consistency for that organization and an opportunity for her to continue to grow and develop. Progressive has focused for many years on employee growth and development, which helps create the strong and deep bench of talent that allows for orderly transitions in our senior leadership roles,\u201d Mrs. Griffith added.<\/p>\n
