CHAIRMAN'S REVIEW

FINANCIAL RESULTS

FOR THE YEARED DECEMBER 31, 2017

CHAIRMAN'S REVIEW

The Sagicor Group experienced a good performance for the 2017 financial year, with improvement in the key areas of revenue, net income and equity.

This performance was in the context of contrasting economic conditions, both regionally and internationally, where Sagicor operates. Regionally, the Caribbean experienced modest economic growth, but continued to engage in fiscal consolidation through various measures of tax increases and public expenditure cuts to reduce high levels of public debt. Internationally, the USA experienced growth, increases in interest rates and a significant, but favourable change in its tax regime for business.

Group Net Income was US $115.3 million, compared to US $109.3 million in the prior year, an increase of US $6.0 million. Group Equity was US $932.3 million, compared to US $795.4 million in the prior year, an increase of US $136.9 million.

Net income attributable to shareholders was US $72.2 million, compared to US $61.7 million in the prior year, an increase of US $10.5 million. Earnings per common share was US 23.7c, and represented an annualised return on common shareholders' equity of 13.3% compared to 12.6% for the prior year.

Total revenue increased to US $1,220.9 million, compared to the prior year amount of US $1,134.1 million, an increase of US $86.8 million or 7.7%. Net premium revenue reached US $745.6 million, compared to US $664.0 million, an improvement of US $81.6 million or 12.3%. Premium income increased in all segments and benefited from the issuance of a single premium annuity relating to our Jamaica segment.

Net investment income was US $379.2 million, compared to US $353.4 million in the prior year, an improvement of US $25.8 million and benefited from higher investment gains in our international investment portfolios.

Fees and other revenue closed the year at US $93.7 million, compared to the prior year amount of US $116.8 million, a decline of US $23.1 million. There was a reduction in commissions income on insurance and reinsurance contracts amounting to US $19.8 million, reflecting commissions net of gains due to reinsurers on supporting assets in our USA segment. Exchange gains/(losses) also showed a loss of US $4.2 million, compared to gains of US $12.6 million in the prior year, a reduction of US $16.8 million. Foreign exchange movements were affected by a strengthening of the Jamaica dollar when compared to the United States dollar in 2017, resulting in foreign exchange declines in financial assets denominated in United States dollars in our Jamaica segment. Overall, the company experienced a gain on translation of the Jamaica segment, which is reported in other comprehensive income. In addition, the prior year included exchange gains relating to declines in the Trinidad dollar, when compared to the United States dollar, there was no significant foreign exchange movement, relative to this currency in 2017.

Total benefits closed at US $660.8 million, up from the prior year amount of US $560.4 million. The growth in benefits is consistent with that of the growth in premium revenue and partially represented increased provisions for future benefits. Included in benefits were net costs of US $8.5 million relating to claims exposure from hurricane activity during the year, along with an increase of US $14.2 million relating to the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act rate reduction in the United States, which came into effect in 2017.

Expenses (including agents' and brokers' commissions) closed the year at US $436.4 million, compared to the prior year amount of US $424.2 million, an increase of US $12.2 million. The Jamaica Segment incurred some non-recurring costs, together with higher administration costs relating to the expansion of cards and payments business.

Income taxes were US $18.6 million, compared to US $41.7 million in the prior year, a reduction of US $23.1 million. This was principally related to our USA Segment. During 2017 the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law in the United States, which reduced the effective corporation tax rate. This contributed to a decrease of US $19.9 million in income taxes and an increase in the provision for future benefits of US $14.2 million in the segment.

Group comprehensive income was US $179.3 million, compared to US $96.7 million for the prior year, an increase of US $ 82.6 million. The principal sources of the increase were an improvement in net gains on financial assets of US $18.7 million, resulting from marked-to-market gains on financial assets in our international portfolios, a positive movement of US $38.2 million on retranslation of foreign currency operations, resulting from a gain in the Jamaica dollar when compared to the United States dollar and a positive change in gains/(losses) on defined benefit plans for employees of US $ 37.8 million.

The discontinued operation represents our UK business, which was sold on December 23, 2013. The terms of the sale required Sagicor to retain an interest in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 underwriting years of account, subject to a limit denominated in pound sterling. At the end of 2015, the Company had fully provided for the contingent exposure relating to this business (the limit). During 2017 there were positive developments in this exposure which resulted in net income of US $10.1 million.

In the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2017, assets amounted to US $6.8 billion, compared to US $6.5 billion in the prior year. Liabilities closed at US $5.9 billion, compared to US $5.7 billion in the prior year. Sagicor's Group equity totalled US $932.3 million, compared to US $795.4 million in the prior year; an increase of US$136.9 million.

The Group's debt, which is included in other liabilities, was US $413.8 million. The debt to capital ratio was 30.7%, down from 33.2% for the prior year.

Sagicor has voluntarily adopted the Canadian international capital standard, "Minimum Continuing Capital and Surplus Requirements" (MCCSR), and has been following this standard since 1991. The MCCSR seeks to demonstrate to policyholders and shareholders the capital strength of the life insurance companies of the Group, as a measure of its ability to meet its longterm obligations. Canadian regulators expect insurance companies to maintain an MCCSR ratio of 150% and Sagicor has consistently maintained a ratio above 175%. As at the end of the year our MCCSR Ratio was 258%.

Sagicor is listed on the Barbados Stock Exchange, The Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange and the London Exchange. We comply with the rigorous requirements of these exchanges.

Sagicor is rated on an annual basis by AM Best, Standard and Poor's Global Ratings, and Fitch Ratings. We have been rated by AM Best since 1998, S&P since 2006 and Fitch since 2015. These ratings are an independent measure of our financial strength. The current ratings are as follows:

   --      AM Best - "A" Excellent 
   --      S&P - BB- stable 
   --      Fitch - B stable 

Sagicor has embarked on a programme to provide relief from the recent hurricanes. To date, Sagicor has made a financial contribution of US $300,000, as well as the provision of goods and services. Consistent with our vision to improve the lives of the people in the communities in which we operate, key initiatives include a school feeding programme to students, a mobile medical clinic and assistance to the regional airline, LIAT. We have also partnered with The University of the West Indies to host a Celebrity T20 Cricket Hurricane Relief Benefit to raise additional funds for the islands which have suffered significant damage during the passage of hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017.

During 2018, the Sagicor Group will continue to work on the corporate re-organisation to respond to the changing regulatory environment, while we continue to pursue opportunities for growth. On behalf of the Board of Sagicor, I wish to thank our shareholders and customers for their continued support.
