COVID-19 impact estimates include mortality and morbidity claims of approximately $89 million with no offsetting impact from longevity in the quarter.

Tax effected at 24%.

In the third quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $3.2 billion, an increase of 4.9% over last year’s third quarter, with an adverse net foreign currency effect of $160 million. Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 10.1%.

Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, third quarter investment income decreased 7.7%, reflecting lower variable investment income in the quarter. Average investment yield decreased to 4.40% in the third quarter due to lower variable investment income compared with 4.95% in the prior year.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.3% on pre-tax income.

The adjusted operating effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.2%, in line with the expected range of 23% to 24%.

Anna Manning, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “This was another strong quarter for us, following the record level of earnings in the second quarter.

“In the quarter, we had positive contributions from a range of segments and businesses. Premium growth on a constant currency basis was 10.1%, and we had another active and successful quarter for in-force transactions, deploying $100 million of capital. COVID-19 claim costs were comfortably absorbed, and our underlying non-COVID-19 mortality was favorable in many markets. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.3 billion.

“The underlying protection markets are active, organic new business activity is healthy, our in-force transactions pipelines are very robust, and we are better positioned to deliver valuable solutions to our clients than ever before.

“This quarter provides further evidence of the substantial value added through client-centered, focused execution on our strategy even during the challenges of COVID-19, and we are in a great position to continue the momentum going forward.”

Earnings Conference Call

A conference call to discuss third quarter results will begin at 10 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, November 4. Interested parties may access the call by dialing 1-877-270-2148 (412-902-6510 international) and asking to be joined into the Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (RGA) 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.
