Insights

Financial Analyst

Genworth Financial's latest earnings report indicates a positive start in 2024 with a notable recovery from the previous quarter's loss to a net income of $139M or $0.31 per diluted share. This rebound is particularly significant considering the $(212)M net loss in Q4 2023, marking a turnaround for the company. Share repurchases to the tune of $63M signal confidence in the stock's value from management, while the increase in Enact's quarterly dividend and a new repurchase program of up to $250M suggest a strong capital return strategy. Additionally, the LTC's MYRAP has accrued $41M of gross incremental premium approvals, indicating a successful execution of their rate action plan. These factors, combined with the RBC ratio improvement to 314%, suggest a fortified balance sheet, enhancing shareholder value and potentially attracting investor interest.

Insurance Industry Analyst

Long-term care (LTC) insurance is proving to be a high-maintenance aspect for Genworth, with liabilities requiring continuous rate action plans for sustained profitability. However, the introduction of the CareScout Quality Network seems to be a strategic move to potentially reduce claims costs and improve patient outcomes, projecting a long-term vision to increase policyholder value and contain expenses. In the insurance industry, such initiatives can create competitive advantages and strengthen customer loyalty. The focus on LTC and Enact's strong performance, with an adjusted operating income of $135M and an incremental increase in primary insurance in-force, underscore a commitment to core business areas. The establishment of this network also may serve as a blueprint for how insurers can innovate within the heavily regulated and competitive space of LTC.

Market Analyst

It's clear from Genworth Financial's first quarter 2024 performance that the company is navigating the headwinds faced in the broader insurance and financial markets with some success. Despite a slight decline in net investment income to $782M, possibly indicative of market volatility, the company has managed to post gains largely attributed to mark-to-market adjustments. The investment gains, however, are accompanied by trading losses, a factor that investors should monitor as it could reflect on the company's risk management efficacy and impact future earnings. Moreover, the PMIERs sufficiency ratio sitting at 163% suggests a well-capitalized mortgage insurance arm, which could provide a buffer against potential future mortgage market fluctuations. This ratio can be seen as a barometer of the company's solvency under the Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements and as such, it's a critical metric for investors to watch.

Strategic Highlights

• Executed $63M in share repurchases in the quarter; $434M in total executed through April 30, 2024, at an average price of $5.42 per share
• Enact announced an increase to its quarterly dividend, as well as a new share repurchase program with authorization to purchase up to $250M of common stock
• Continued progress on the LTC¹ multi-year rate action plan (MYRAP) with $41M of gross incremental premium approvals; $28.3B net present value achieved from in-force rate actions (IFAs) since 2012
• CareScout continued to expand the CareScout Quality Network, a first-of-its-kind group of long-term care providers who meet high quality standards and are committed to person-centered care

Financial Highlights

• Net income² of $139M, or $0.31 per diluted share, and adjusted operating income^2,3 of $85M, or $0.19 per diluted share
• Enact reported adjusted operating income of $135M²; distributed $61M in capital returns to Genworth
• U.S. life insurance companies’ RBC⁴ ratio of 314%⁵ driven by strong statutory income
• Genworth holding company cash and liquid assets of $253M at quarter-end

Consolidated GAAP Financial Highlights

• Net income in the quarter was driven by Enact, which had very strong operating performance, as well as positive LTC earnings, partially offset by losses in Corporate and Other
• Net investment gains, net of taxes, increased net income by $39 million in the current quarter, compared with net investment gains of $30 million in the prior quarter and net investment losses of $9 million in the prior year. The investment gains in the current quarter were driven primarily by mark-to-market adjustments on limited partnerships and equity securities, partially offset by net trading losses
• Changes in the fair value of market risk benefits, net of taxes, increased net income by $18 million in the quarter driven primarily by the favorable change in the interest rate yield curve, compared with decreases of $11 million in the prior quarter and $13 million in the prior year
• Net investment income was $782 million in the quarter, down from $810 million in the prior quarter primarily driven by lower income from limited partnerships

• Current quarter results reflect a pre-tax reserve release of $54 million primarily from favorable cure performance on delinquencies from early 2023 and prior. The prior quarter and prior year included pre-tax reserve releases of $53 million and $70 million, respectively
• Net investment income of $57 million in the current quarter was up from $46 million in the prior year from higher yields and higher average invested assets
• Primary insurance in-force increased four percent versus the prior year to $264 billion driven by new insurance written (NIW) and continued elevated persistency
• Primary NIW was down 20 percent versus the prior year primarily due to a smaller mortgage insurance market and elevated mortgage rates
• New delinquencies increased 19 percent to 11,395 from 9,599 in the prior year primarily from the aging of large, newer books. New delinquencies for the quarter were more than offset by strong cure performance

• Premiums decreased versus the prior quarter primarily driven by seasonal trends and versus the prior year primarily from policy terminations and policies entering paid-up status.

• Net investment income declined versus the prior quarter and the prior year driven primarily by lower limited partnership income
• Current quarter liability remeasurement gain included seasonally high mortality, though lower than the prior year
• Prior quarter included a liability remeasurement loss of $188 million pre-tax, which included $61 million of assumption updates

• Current quarter GLIC consolidated RBC ratio was 314 percent, up from the prior quarter driven primarily by earnings in LTC and variable annuities

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures entitled "adjusted operating income (loss)" and "adjusted operating income (loss) per share” to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Adjusted operating income (loss) per share is derived from adjusted operating income (loss). The company defines adjusted operating income (loss) as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges, gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. A component of the company’s net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to the company’s discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. The company excludes net investment gains (losses), changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges, gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items from adjusted operating income (loss) because, in the company’s opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating performance.

While some of these items may be significant components of net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, the company believes that adjusted operating income (loss), and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss), including adjusted operating income (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss), among other key performance indicators, as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis are not substitutes for net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company’s definition of adjusted operating income (loss) may differ from the definitions used by other companies.

Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21 percent tax rate and are net of the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests. Changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges are adjusted to exclude changes in reserves, attributed fees and benefit payments.

The tables at the end of this press release provide a reconciliation of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, as well as the three months ended December 31, 2023 and reflect adjusted operating income (loss) as determined in accordance with accounting guidance related to segment reporting.

Statutory Accounting Data

The company presents certain supplemental statutory data for GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries that has been prepared on the basis of statutory accounting principles (SAP). GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries file financial statements with state insurance regulatory authorities and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners that are prepared using SAP, an accounting basis either prescribed or permitted by such authorities. Due to differences in methodology between SAP and GAAP, the values for assets, liabilities and equity, and the recognition of income and expenses, reflected in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are materially different from those reflected in financial statements prepared under SAP. This supplemental statutory data should not be viewed as an alternative to, or used in lieu of, GAAP.

This supplemental statutory data includes the company action level RBC ratio for GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries as well as combined statutory pre-tax earnings from the principal U.S. life insurance companies, GLIC, GLAIC and GLICNY. Statutory pre-tax earnings represent the net gain from operations, including the impact from in-force rate actions, before dividends to policyholders, refunds to members and federal income taxes and before realized capital gains or (losses). The combined product level statutory pre-tax earnings are grouped on a consistent basis as those provided on page six of the statutory Annual Statements. Management uses and provides this supplemental statutory data because it believes it provides a useful measure of, among other things, statutory pre-tax earnings and the adequacy of capital. Management uses this data to measure against its policy to manage the U.S. life insurance companies with internally generated capital.

• inaccuracies or changes in estimates, assumptions, methodologies, valuations, projections and/or models, which result in inadequate reserves or other adverse results (including as a result of any changes in connection with quarterly, annual or other reviews);

• downgrades in financial strength and credit ratings and potential adverse impacts to liquidity; counterparty credit risks; defaults by counterparties to reinsurance arrangements or derivative instruments; defaults or other events impacting the value of invested assets;
• changes in tax rates or tax laws, or changes in accounting and reporting standards;
