DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Primerica, Inc. (NYSE: PRI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Total revenues of $668.7 million increased 2% compared to the second quarter of 2021. Net income attributable to Primerica of $107.9 million decreased 16%, while net earnings per diluted share of $2.79 decreased 13% compared to the same period in the prior year. ROE was 23.3% for the quarter.

Adjusted operating revenues were $671.8 million, a 3% increase compared to the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted net operating income of $110.7 million decreased 14%, while adjusted operating net earnings per diluted share of $2.86 decreased 12% compared to the same period in the prior year. ROAE was 22.5% for the quarter.

Second quarter results highlight the value of our business model with operating segments that have complementary earnings drivers. As fears that drove sales and persistency during the pandemic subside and excess mortality normalizes, the key drivers of value in the Term Life segment continued to stabilize, resulting in a strong margin of 21% in the segment for the quarter. The Company’s extensive use of reinsurance to control volatility and the substantial size of this business result in predictable earnings and support the Company’s capital deployment strategy.

Earnings in the Investment and Savings segment were adversely impacted by the second quarter’s market correction with both sales and client asset values declining as volatility heightened investors’ apprehension. The acceleration of Canadian segregated fund DAC amortization caused by market performance in Canada added additional pressure to segment earnings, lowering pre-tax income by $3.7 million, year-over-year. Nonetheless, we have not seen a rise in redemption rates as clients stay invested despite market volatility. The Company’s commitment to helping middle-income families prepare for a more financially secure future remains strong and the benefit of this long-term approach is evident with approximately 70% of Primerica’s assets invested in retirement accounts.

The Senior Health segment, which has seasonally low sales levels in the second quarter, continued to face headwinds as the industry adjusts to higher churn rates and the need to lower contract acquisition costs. On a consolidated basis, margins were temporarily pressured by the Company’s biennial convention, which added an additional leadership event to 2022. Segment results will be discussed in greater detail below.

“We are encouraged by the momentum in our sales force. We are starting to see real benefits of improvements in our licensing process and expect that the excitement generated during the convention will continue to fuel momentum,” said Glenn Williams, Chief Executive Officer. “I believe we are well positioned for the second half of the year.”

Life Insurance Licensed Sales Force

Recruiting and licensing numbers in the prior year period were distorted by temporary measures put in place during the height of the COVID pandemic, which make year-over-year comparisons difficult. Now that the operating environment has normalized, we can see solid momentum. Improvements in the licensing process have also helped the Company regain its licensing momentum. A total of 11,529 individuals obtained a new life license during the second quarter. The Company also continued to experience a high degree of interest from people exploring Primerica’s business opportunity as it recruited over 70,000 individuals during the second quarter.

On June 30, 2022, the Company had a total of 132,149 independent life-licensed representatives as the size of the sales force grew for the third consecutive quarter.

Term Life Insurance

As anticipated, the number of term life issued policies declined year-over-year as pandemic fears continued to fade and sales volume normalized. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company issued nearly 77,000 new term life insurance policies, which compares favorably to pre-pandemic levels. Productivity at 0.20 policies per life-licensed representative per month is in line with the Company’s historical range. The Company anticipates continued growth in the future from successful recruiting and licensing.

Second quarter revenues of $410.7 million increased 7% year-over-year, driven by 8% growth in adjusted direct premiums. The benefits and claims ratio was 58.5%, reflecting a large reduction in claims activity in the period. COVID claims continued to decline and were $2 million net of reinsurance for the quarter. Additionally, non-COVID death claims were about $5 million favorable versus historical trends. This is largely considered regular claims volatility and is unlikely to continue at this level. The DAC amortization ratio was 14.6% for the quarter. In comparison to pre-pandemic second quarter levels, higher lapse rates and amortization on policies issued during the pandemic were offset by lower lapse rates and amortization on the remainder of the in-force block.

As anticipated, insurance expenses increased $11.1 million, or 23% year-over-year, with more than half of the increase due to adding the previously postponed biennial convention to our normal cycle of sales force leadership events. Excluding this, the growth in segment operating expenses was generally in line with revenue growth.

Investment and Savings Products

Total product sales during the quarter were $2.7 billion, or 12% lower compared to the second quarter of 2021 as a significant equity market correction was experienced and inflation concerns eroded consumer confidence. Nonetheless, net client inflows remained strong at $0.9 billion, reflecting clients’ long-term approach to investing for retirement. Client asset values on June 30, 2022 were $82.3 billion, down 10% year-over-year.

Revenues of $222.4 million during the quarter declined 7%, while pre-tax income of $59.0 million decreased 17% compared to the prior year period. Sales-based revenues and sales-based commission expense declined 15% and 14%, respectively year-over-year, largely in line with the change in revenue-generating sales. Asset-based revenues were flat year-over-year while average client asset values declined 2%. Asset-based net revenues declined 10% due to a $3.7 million year-over-year increase in Canadian segregated fund DAC amortization reflecting the volatility in market performance.

Operating expenses increased $3.0 million, or 8% year-over-year, a third of which was driven by higher costs associated with sales force leadership events and the biennial convention.

Senior Health

Second quarter results reflected the seasonally less productive quarter when fewer enrollees are eligible to obtain Medicare coverage and our continued efforts to control sales levels while headwinds to key business drivers are addressed. Approximately 18,000 policies were approved during quarter. The lifetime value of commissions (“LTV”) per approved policy were $820, which reflects the most recent lapse activity during the 2022 renewal period. Contract acquisition costs (“CAC”) per approved policy were $1,081, reflecting seasonally low sales volume and resulting in a 0.8x LTV/CAC ratio.

The pre-tax operating loss of $13.0 million during the quarter includes a $5.4 million negative tail adjustment that reflects the Company’s current LTV estimates applied to policies sold during the most recent Annual Enrollment period and Open Enrollment period. e-TeleQuote generated sufficient cash to fund its operations during the second quarter and therefore required no funding from the Company.

Effective July 1, 2022, the Company executed its call option to acquire the remaining 20% of Primerica Health, which owns e-TeleQuote. The contractually defined formulaic price calculation resulted in a purchase price of zero. As such, no further consideration was required to obtain the outstanding 20% stake in Primerica Health.

Corporate and Other Distributed Products

During the second quarter, the segment recorded an adjusted operating loss before taxes of $21.9 million, increasing $5.0 million year-over-year. The increase was due in part to a $2.0 million lower contribution from third-party products sales, including mortgages which slowed due to rising interest rates, $2.9 million higher insurance and other operating expenses and $1.7 million lower net investment income due to a higher allocation to the Term Life segment to support the growing block of business. Note that on a consolidated basis, net investment income was up modestly year-over-year.

Taxes

The effective tax rate was 23.1% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 24.4% in the second quarter of 2021. The lower rate was primarily driven by the state income tax benefit generated by e-TeleQuote, which was not part of our second quarter results in 2021.

Capital

During the second quarter, the Company repurchased $128 million of common stock, for a total of $227 million year-to-date. The Company expects to complete its announced repurchases of $306 million for 2022 in the third quarter. The Board of Directors has approved a dividend of $0.55 per share, payable on September 14, 2022, to stockholders of record on August 22, 2022.

Primerica has a strong balance sheet, including invested assets and cash at the holding company of $232 million at quarter-end. Primerica Life Insurance Company’s statutory risk-based capital (RBC) ratio was estimated to be about 460% as of June 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company presents adjusted direct premiums, other ceded premiums, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income, adjusted stockholders’ equity and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share. Adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums are net of amounts ceded under coinsurance transactions that were executed concurrent with our initial public offering (the “IPO coinsurance transactions”) for all periods presented. We exclude amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions in measuring adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums to present meaningful comparisons of the actual premiums economically maintained by the Company. Amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions will continue to decline over time as policies terminate within this block of business. Adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share exclude the impact of investment gains (losses) and fair value mark-to-market (“MTM”) investment adjustments, including credit impairments, for all periods presented. We exclude investment gains (losses), including credit impairments, and MTM investment adjustments in measuring these non-GAAP financial measures to eliminate period-over-period fluctuations that may obscure comparisons of operating results due to items such as the timing of recognizing gains (losses) and market pricing variations prior to an invested asset’s maturity or sale that are not directly associated with the Company’s insurance operations. Adjusted operating income before taxes, adjusted net operating income, and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share also exclude transaction-related expenses/recoveries associated with the purchase of 80% of e-TeleQuote Insurance, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, “e-TeleQuote”) and adjustments to share-based compensation expense for shares exchanged in the business combination. We exclude e-TeleQuote transaction-related expenses/recoveries as these are non-recurring items that will cause incomparability between period-over-period results. We exclude adjustments to share-based compensation expense for shares exchanged in the business combination to eliminate period-over-period fluctuations that may obscure comparisons of operating results primarily due to the volatility of changes in the fair value of shares prior to the dates that can ultimately be redeemed. Adjusted operating income before income taxes and adjusted net operating income exclude income attributable to the noncontrolling interest to present only the income that is attributable to stockholders of the Company. Adjusted stockholders’ equity excludes the impact of net unrealized investment gains (losses) recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for all periods presented. We exclude unrealized investment gains (losses) in measuring adjusted stockholders’ equity as unrealized gains (losses) from the Company’s available-for-sale securities are largely caused by market movements in interest rates and credit spreads that do not necessarily correlate with the cash flows we will ultimately realize when an available-for-sale security matures or is sold.

Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of similar measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods as they are expected to be reflective of the core ongoing business. These measures have limitations and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are attached to this release.
