Tax effected at 24%.

In the second quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $3.2 billion, an increase of 4.3% over last year’s second quarter, with an adverse net foreign currency effect of $119 million. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses and the value of associated derivatives, second quarter investment income increased 3.7%, reflecting a higher average asset balance. Average investment yield was flat at 4.63% in the second quarter compared with 4.64% in the prior year.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.1% on pre-tax income.

The adjusted operating effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.5%, compared with the expected range of 23% to 24%.

Anna Manning, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “This was a record level of earnings for us, and importantly it included strong contributions from many of our business segments. In addition, growth in organic new business was good and we had another active quarter for capital deployment into in-force and other transactions. COVID-19 claim costs came down substantially this quarter, and our underlying non-COVID-19 mortality was favorable in many markets.

“On the capital front, we deployed $121 million into in-force and other transactions, and increased our quarterly dividend 9.6% to $0.80 per share. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.0 billion. This quarter continues to demonstrate that our global platform can perform well in a range of economic environments.”

  • Second quarter pre-tax adjusted operating loss was favorable as compared to with the quarterly average run rate, primarily due to higher net investment income, including limited partnership income.

Long Duration Targeted Improvements

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company will adopt Accounting Standards Update 2018-12, Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts (“LDTI”). The Company estimates the adoption of LDTI will decrease:

  • retained earnings by $500 million to $800 million, net of tax, as of December 31, 2021;
  • retained earnings by $1.0 billion to $1.3 billion, net of tax, as of the transition date of January 1, 2021;
  • accumulated other comprehensive income by $3.2 billion to $5.2 billion, net of tax, as of December 31, 2021; and
  • accumulated other comprehensive income by $5.1 billion to $7.1 billion, net of tax, as of the transition date of January 1, 2021.

The LDTI adoption impacts, including the 24% tax rate assumed in the above figures, are estimates and subject to change due to ongoing review and refinement of actuarial assumptions and projection models, additional review of tax impacts across various tax jurisdictions and additional implementation guidance. Additionally, the ultimate impact on retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income upon adoption of LDTI on January 1, 2023, may differ materially from the above figures based on the performance of the Company’s business during 2022 and macroeconomic conditions, including changes in interest rates. Please see the Company’s quarterly earnings presentation furnished as Exhibit 99.3 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 4, 2022, for additional details.

Dividend Declaration

Effective August 2, 2022, the board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.80, payable August 30, 2022, to shareholders of record as of August 16, 2022.

Additionally, the Company posts periodic reports, press releases and other useful information on its Investor Relations website.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called adjusted operating income as a basis for analyzing financial results. This measure also serves as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under RGA’s management incentive programs. Management believes that adjusted operating income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, better measures the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations, primarily because that measure excludes substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses, as well as changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives and related deferred acquisition costs. These items can be volatile, primarily due to the credit market and interest rate environment, and are not necessarily indicative of the performance of the Company’s underlying businesses. Additionally, adjusted operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, tax reform and other items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. The definition of adjusted operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income.

Book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is important in evaluating the balance sheet in order to ignore the effects of unrealized amounts primarily associated with mark-to-market adjustments on investments and foreign currency translation.

Adjusted operating income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average stockholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Similar to adjusted operating income, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations, they also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under RGA’s management incentive programs.

Reconciliations from GAAP net income, book value per share, net income per diluted share and average stockholders’ equity are provided in the following tables. Additional financial information can be found in the Quarterly Financial Supplement on RGA’s Investor Relations website at www.rgare.com in the “Financial Information” section.
