CEO Margi Tooth pointed to "improved web conversion" and "solid performance" from the company’s updated products as key contributors to net subscription pet growth, which rose 39% year over year. Early results from these initiatives also led to a 25% increase in the lifetime value of enrolled pets, supporting Trupanion’s ability to invest in further growth opportunities.
