First quarter results reflected approximately $474 million of estimated COVID-19 impacts. On a per diluted share basis, the estimated COVID-19 impacts, which includes mortality and morbidity claims with offsetting impacts from longevity, were approximately $5.31.

In the first quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $2.9 billion, an increase of 3% over last year’s first quarter, with a favorable net foreign currency effect of $78 million. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses and the value of associated derivatives, first quarter investment income increased significantly to $463 million and average investment yield increased to 5.67% in the first quarter from 4.08% in the prior year. This reflects higher variable investment income as a result of a correction of accounting for limited partnership investments of $92 million related to prior years (see “Accounting Correction” for more details). Additionally, the first quarter reflects strong variable investment income from limited partnership investments.

The effective tax rate on pre-tax income was 25.3% for the first quarter. The effective tax rate benefit on pre-tax adjusted operating loss was 26.9% for the first quarter. The effective rate was above expectations due to the geographical mix of earnings which resulted in a higher-than-expected quarterly tax rate.

Anna Manning, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter was negatively impacted by a significant level of COVID-19 mortality claims in a range of geographies. Beyond the effect of COVID-19, our results were solid and continued to show resilience. Our underlying earnings power remains strong as a number of our segments performed well, and we deployed $100 million into in-force transactions.

“Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.2 billion. While we expect our results to continue to reflect additional COVID-19 claims, we expect that impact to diminish in the coming quarters, and believe that our strong financial condition and global business platform will deliver improved results as the year progresses.”

  • Pre-tax income reflected a one-time adjustment of $162 million associated with prior periods that includes $92 million to correct accounting for equity method limited partnerships to reflect unrealized gains in investment income that were previously reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, in addition to $70 million reflected in investment related gains/losses associated with unrealized gains on cost method limited partnerships.
  • Pre-tax income reflected $144 million of capital gains associated with portfolio repositioning.
  • Pre-tax adjusted operating income reflected the one-time adjustment of $92 million discussed above to correct accounting for equity method limited partnerships.
  • Pre-tax adjusted operating income also reflected lower overall expenses.

Dividend Declaration

Effective as of May 6, 2021, the board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.70, payable June 1, 2021, to shareholders of record as of May 18, 2021.

Accounting Correction

During the three-months ended March 31, 2021, the Company reclassified approximately $92 million of pre-tax unrealized gains from AOCI to investment income associated with investments in limited partnerships and private equity funds for which it utilizes the equity method of accounting. The unrealized gains should have been recognized directly in investment income in the same prior periods they were reported by the investees. In addition, the Company recorded approximately $70 million of pre-tax investment related gains associated with investments in limited partnerships considered to be investment companies in order to adjust the carrying value from cost less impairments to a fair value approach. If these adjustments were recorded in the years they were reported by the investees, the Company estimates that it would have recognized approximately $102 million, $(2) million, $1 million and $10 million of pre-tax income in the years ended December 31 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

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.
