Monitor whether the sale actually executes and at what price; a director's 144 is intent, not a done deal. Given the small size relative to market cap and the recent pattern of insider sells ($4.2M over 30d), watch for any acceleration of insider selling ahead of the next earnings report.

Executive Summary
Director Roy J. Kasmar filed a Form 144 notice of intent to sell 171,550 shares of Essent Group Ltd. (ESNT), valued at approximately $171,550 per the filing's stated amount (likely a per-share or aggregate placeholder; the raw figure is $171,550.00). The sale is from the Roy J.
