Lemonade Draws Retail Cheer On $1B In Force Premium Milestone, Announces Launch Of Lemonade Car in Colorado

Lemonade achieved the IFP milestone in 8.5 years of selling its first policy, marking an approximate 150% compound annual growth rate.

Retail investors on Stocktwits cheered for digital insurance company Lemonade (LMND) after the firm disclosed that it has surpassed $1 billion of In Force Premium (IFP).

In Force Premiums are the policies for which a policyholder continues to pay premiums, making them active policies.

Lemonade achieved the milestone after selling its first policy 8.5 years ago, marking an approximate 150% compound annual growth rate.

Lemonade President and co-founder Shai Wininger highlighted the importance of surpassing $1 billion in IFP with positive free cash flow and a healthy loss ratio.

Lemonade also announced the launch of Lemonade Car in Colorado beginning Wednesday, boosting the insurer’s availability to roughly 40% of the U.S. car insurance market.

“Coloradans spend about $7B on car insurance annually, with Lemonade’s existing Colorado customers spending hundreds of millions a year on car insurance, making the state a promising market for Lemonade Car,” the company said.

The insurer believes Lemonade Car will play a significant role in the company’s accelerating growth plan.

Following the disclosure, retail sentiment on Stocktwits flipped into the ‘bullish’ territory (57/100) from ‘neutral’ a day ago.

During the fourth-quarter (Q4) earnings report, the company projected its IFP to hit $1.2 billion to $1.21 billion for the full year 2025.

Revenue for the first quarter (Q1) was projected at $143 million to $145 million.

The company estimates its first quarter earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) loss at $46 million to $49 million. Lemonade said its guidance includes an estimated $20 million unfavorable impact due to the California wildfires.

Lemonade stock has traded almost flat in 2025 but has gained over 120% in the past 12 months.
