COVID-19 impact estimates include mortality and morbidity claims of approximately $168 million with offsetting impacts from longevity of approximately $38 million.

In the second quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $3.1 billion, an increase of 11% over last year’s second quarter, with a favorable net foreign currency effect of $124 million. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses and the value of associated derivatives, second quarter investment income increased 26%, reflecting a 10% higher average asset balance and strong variable investment income. Average investment yield increased to 4.64% in the second quarter from 4.07% in the prior year, primarily due to higher variable investment income.

The effective tax rate this quarter was 28.5% on pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 24.0% on pre-tax adjusted operating income for the quarter, within the expected range of 23% to 24%.

Anna Manning, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are very pleased with the Company’s strong performance in the second quarter, as the earnings contribution was broad-based by geography and lines of business, the impact of COVID-19 was significantly reduced, and our investment results were very favorable. Notably, our U.S. Traditional segment had a very good quarter, and our GFS business performed extremely well across all our regions and lines of business. Reported premium growth was very good, organic growth was solid, and new business momentum has picked up and is encouraging. We deployed approximately $200 million of capital into in-force transactions, and the pipeline is active.

“Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.2 billion. We expect our results to continue to reflect some additional COVID-19 claims, but at manageable and decreasing levels. We expect our underlying earnings power to be sustained and to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.”

Capital Management

Todd C.

Earnings Conference Call

A live audio webcast of the conference call will be available on the Company’s Investor Relations website at www.rgare.com. A replay of the conference call will be available at the same address for 90 days following the conference call.

The Company has posted to its website an earnings presentation and a Quarterly Financial Supplement that includes financial information for all segments as well as information on its investment portfolio. 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.
