Full year net income available to RGA shareholders totaled $902 million, or $13.44 per diluted share, compared with $517 million, or $7.64 per diluted share in 2022. Adjusted operating income for the full year totaled $1,334 million, or $19.88 per diluted share, compared with $927 million, or $13.69 per diluted share the year before. Adjusted operating income, excluding notable items for the full year, totaled $1,334 million, or $19.88 per diluted share, compared with $1,111 million, or $16.40 per diluted share, the year before. Net foreign currency fluctuations had an adverse effect of $0.18 per diluted share on net income available to RGA shareholders, and $0.21 per diluted share on adjusted operating income as compared with 2022.

In the fourth quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $4.1 billion, an increase of 19.2% over the 2022 fourth quarter, with a favorable net foreign currency effect of $18 million. Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 18.7% in the quarter. Net premiums for the quarter include a $500 million contribution from a single premium pension risk transfer transaction in the U.S. Financial Solutions business. For the full year, net premiums totaled $15.1 billion, an increase of 15.3% from 2022, with an adverse net foreign currency effect of $126 million. Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 16.3% for the full year. Net premiums for the full year include a $1.5 billion contribution from single premium pension risk transfer transactions in the U.S. Financial Solutions business.

Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, fourth quarter investment income increased 14.8%, reflecting higher yields. For the full year, investment income, excluding spread-based businesses, increased 4.2%, reflecting higher yields. Average investment yield increased to 4.86% in the fourth quarter from 4.45% in the prior-year period due to higher yields. For the full year, average investment yield was flat at 4.68% compared with the prior-year period of 4.69% due to higher yields that were offset by lower variable investment income.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 2.2% on pre-tax income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to losses in certain higher tax jurisdictions, tax credits and the release of tax liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions. For the full year, the effective tax rate was 21.8% on pre-tax income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, due to lower than expected income in certain higher tax jurisdictions, tax credits and the release of tax liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 18.2% on pre-tax adjusted operating income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to losses in higher tax jurisdictions and tax credits. For the full year, the effective tax rate was 21.5% on pre-tax adjusted operating income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, due to lower than expected income in higher tax jurisdictions and tax credits.

Tony Cheng, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In the quarter, we saw a continuation of the many positive trends that we experienced in the first nine months, and this helped us produce record results for the year. Our Financial Solutions business continued to deliver very strong results across regions and product lines. We continued to see good momentum in organic business activity in the traditional business, and our in-force transactions were especially strong, with $346 million of capital deployed in the quarter. This brought our annual capital deployment into in-force transactions to $933 million, a record for RGA.

“Additionally, we repurchased $50 million of common shares, bringing the full year total to $200 million. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.0 billion. Based on favorable business conditions and RGA's global leadership position, we are optimistic about the future and expect to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Definitions

Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (the “Company”) discloses certain financial measures that are not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company principally uses such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating performance because the Company believes that such measures, when reviewed in conjunction with relevant U.S. GAAP measures, present a clearer picture of our operating performance and assist the Company in the allocation of its resources. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results of operations, financial statements and the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s businesses by excluding specified items which may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. These measures should be considered supplementary to the Company’s financial results that are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures. Consequently, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this document or in other public disclosures made by the Company from time to time:

1. Adjusted operating income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, and adjusted operating income per diluted share. The Company uses these measures as a basis for analyzing financial results because the Company believes that such measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations. Adjusted operating income is calculated as net income available to the Company’s shareholders (or, in the case of pre-tax adjusted operating income, income before income taxes) excluding substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses, changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives, and changes in the fair value of contracts that provide market risk benefits, any of which can be volatile and may not reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses. Additionally, adjusted operating income excludes, to the extent applicable, any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, the impact of certain tax-related items, and any other items that the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. In addition, adjusted operating income per diluted share is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. These measures also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs.
2. Adjusted operating income (on a pre-tax and after-tax basis), excluding notable items. Notable items are items the Company believes may not be indicative of its ongoing operating performance which are excluded from adjusted operating income to provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results. Such items may be unexpected, unknown when the Company prepares its business plan or otherwise. Notable items presented may include the financial impact of the Company’s assumption reviews on business subject to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts” and related amendments, reflected in future policy benefits remeasurement gains or losses.
3. Adjusted operating revenue. This measure excludes the effects of net realized capital gains and losses, and changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives.
4. Shareholders’ equity position excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, and book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI. The Company believes that these measures provide useful information since such measures exclude AOCI-related items that are not permanent and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, and may not reflect the impact of the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses on shareholders’ equity and book value per share. AOCI primarily relates to changes in interest rates, credit spreads on its investment securities, future policy benefits discount rate measurement gains (losses), market risk benefits instrument-specific credit risk remeasurement gains (losses) and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company also discloses a non-GAAP financial measure called shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and notable items.
5. Adjusted operating return on equity. This measure is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Adjusted operating return on equity also serves as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. The Company also discloses a non-GAAP financial measure called adjusted operating return on equity excluding notable items, which is calculated as adjusted operating income excluding notable items divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding notable items and AOCI.

Reconciliations of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures (to the extent disclosed in this document) to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the Appendix at the end of this document.

Other definitions:

• Uncapped (profitable) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio under 100%
• Capped (loss) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio equal to or greater than 100%
• Floored cohorts: cohorts with reserves floored at zero as reserves cannot be negative

Factors that could also cause results or events to differ, possibly materially, from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, include, among others: (1) adverse changes in mortality (whether related to COVID-19 or otherwise), morbidity, lapsation or claims experience, (2) inadequate risk analysis and underwriting, (3) adverse capital and credit market conditions and their impact on the Company’s liquidity, access to capital and cost of capital, (4) changes in the Company’s financial strength and credit ratings and the effect of such changes on the Company’s future results of operations and financial condition, (5) the availability and cost of collateral necessary for regulatory reserves and capital, (6) requirements to post collateral or make payments due to declines in the market value of assets subject to the Company’s collateral arrangements, (7) action by regulators who have authority over the Company’s reinsurance operations in the jurisdictions in which it operates, (8) the effect of the Company parent’s status as an insurance holding company and regulatory restrictions on its ability to pay principal of and interest on its debt obligations, (9) general economic conditions or a prolonged economic downturn affecting the demand for insurance and reinsurance in the Company’s current and planned markets, (10) the impairment of other financial institutions and its effect on the Company’s business, (11) fluctuations in U.S. or foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or securities and real estate markets, (12) market or economic conditions that adversely affect the value of the Company’s investment securities or result in the impairment of all or a portion of the value of certain of the Company’s investment securities that in turn could affect regulatory capital, (13) market or economic conditions that adversely affect the Company’s ability to make timely sales of investment securities, (14) risks inherent in the Company’s risk management and investment strategy, including changes in investment portfolio yields due to interest rate or credit quality changes, (15) the fact that the determination of allowances and impairments taken on the Company’s investments is highly subjective, (16) the stability of and actions by governments and economies in the markets in which the Company operates, including ongoing uncertainties regarding the amount of U.S. sovereign debt and the credit ratings thereof, (17) the Company’s dependence on third parties, including those insurance companies and reinsurers to which the Company cedes some reinsurance, third-party investment managers and others, (18) financial performance of the Company’s clients, (19) the threat of natural disasters, catastrophes, terrorist attacks, pandemics, epidemics or other major public health issues anywhere in the world where the Company or its clients do business, (20) competitive factors and competitors’ responses to the Company’s initiatives, (21) development and introduction of new products and distribution opportunities, (22) execution of the Company’s entry into new markets, (23) integration of acquired blocks of business and entities, (24) interruption or failure of the Company’s telecommunication, information technology or other operational systems, or the Company’s failure to maintain adequate security to protect the confidentiality or privacy of personal or sensitive data and intellectual property stored on such systems, (25) adverse developments with respect to litigation, arbitration or regulatory investigations or actions, (26) the adequacy of reserves, resources and accurate information relating to settlements, awards and terminated and discontinued lines of business, (27) changes in laws, regulations, and accounting standards applicable to the Company or its business, including Long-Duration Targeted Improvement accounting changes and (28) other risks and uncertainties described in this document and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Forward-looking statements should be evaluated together with the many risks and uncertainties that affect the Company’s business, including those mentioned in this document and described in the periodic reports the Company files with the SEC. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even though the Company’s situation may change in the future, except as required under applicable securities law. For a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, you are advised to see Item 1A – “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as may be supplemented by Item 1A - “Risk Factors” in the Company’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our other periodic and current reports filed with the SEC.
