Bare 8-K cover; earnings release exhibit is missing

There is no earnings result to decode in the supplied filing. The 8-K only says Essent issued a June 30, 2026 quarterly-results press release under Item 2.02 and that the release was furnished as Exhibit 99.1; the exhibit itself, including financial tables and management commentary, is not included. (Item 2.02; Exhibit 99.1 reference)

A beat, miss, or guidance signal cannot be assessed. Without the actual release, there are no reported figures, outlook changes, capital actions, or operating details to compare with expectations. This is therefore a routine cover-page disclosure rather than a substantive investor read.
