Skyward Specialty Seems Now To Be Fairly Valued

SKWD's Apollo acquisition boosted scale and investment income, but integration challenges remain, particularly around Apollo's higher expense ratio. Balance sheet deleveraging is prioritized over capital returns; share buybacks continue, but no dividend is expected in the near term.
