Life-licensed sales force grew 4.4% to a record 135,208 representatives

Term Life net premiums increased 5%; adjusted direct premiums increased 6%

Investment and Savings Products sales reached $10 billion for full year 2022; second largest in Company history despite equity market volatility

Executed a successful senior health Medicare annual enrollment period

Net earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $3.54; return on stockholders’ equity (ROE) 31.6%

Diluted adjusted operating EPS of $3.49, up 19%; adjusted net operating income return on adjusted stockholders’ equity (ROAE) of 27.1%

Duluth, GA, February 23, 2023 – Primerica, Inc. (NYSE: PRI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. GAAP revenues were $686.9 million, down 5% from the prior year period. Net income was $131.8 million, earnings per diluted share was $3.54 and ROE was 31.6% for the quarter. Net income, earnings per diluted share and ROE comparisons to the prior year results are not meaningful due to a goodwill impairment charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Adjusted net operating revenues of $684.5 million decreased 5% compared to the prior year’s fourth quarter. Adjusted net operating income was $129.9 million, up 11% while diluted adjusted operating earnings per share of $3.49 increased 19% year-over-year. ROAE was 27.1% for the quarter. The Company adjusts operating results to exclude non-recurring items that cause incomparability between periods. A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this release.

“Our success in 2022 reflects the value of guidance that our sales force brings to middle-income families and the important role they play in encouraging clients to take action,” said Glenn Williams, Chief Executive Officer. “For three consecutive years, Primerica has issued more than $100 billion in term life insurance face amount. And while inflation and market volatility created headwinds, our representatives successfully helped their clients invest $10 billion in 2022 toward their future financial goals.”

Term Life operating results during the fourth quarter reflected a significant reduction in COVID-related death claims year-over-year and continued normalization of policy persistency. Claims were favorable to historical trends in the fourth quarter and rising interest rates positively impacted benefit reserves when the Company locked in its assumptions for new business during the period as further described below. Economic uncertainty continued to pressure equity markets, which adversely impacted sales and client asset values in the Investment and Savings Products (“ISP”) segment. Senior health results improved year-over-year as the Company continued to navigate the evolving marketplace.

Comparing results for the year ended December 31, 2022 to the year ended December 31, 2021, income before income taxes of $493.7 million declined 3%, while adjusted operating income before income taxes of $567.0 million declined 6%. Term Life pre-tax operating income grew 8% year-over-year, in line with 8% growth in adjusted direct premiums as the impact of the pandemic on the life insurance business faded. ISP pre-tax operating income declined 13% year-over-year driven by the impact of equity market volatility on product sales and client asset values. Higher losses in the Senior Health segment, lower mortgage sales due to rising interest rates and the cost of holding an additional sales force leadership event in 2022 also contributed to the year-over-year decline in operating income.

Life Insurance Licensed Sales Force

The Company continued to capitalize on the attractiveness and flexibility of its entrepreneurial business opportunity, ending 2022 with a record 135,208 independent life-licensed representatives, a 4.4% increase compared to December 31, 2021. Growth in the sales force was supported by strong recruiting over the last 12 months, including 77,025 individuals who joined Primerica during the fourth quarter of 2022. Licensing momentum continued with 11,117 new life-licensed representatives during the fourth quarter of 2022, a 20% increase compared to the prior year period.

Term Life Insurance

The Company issued 72,544 new term life insurance policies during the fourth quarter, decreasing 4% compared to the prior year period, while issued term life face amount was nearly flat year-over-year. The year-over-year decline in sales volume was due to a slow start in October as the sales force anticipated and prepared for the Company’s introduction of new life insurance products. Following a successful product launch, momentum started to build again in November and December. We also believe an increased cost-of-living impacted sales to some degree. Productivity remained in its historical range at 0.18 policies per life-licensed representative per month versus 0.19 in the prior year period.

Fourth quarter revenues of $430.2 million increased 5% year-over-year, driven by 6% growth in adjusted direct premiums, while pre-tax income of $125.3 million increased 23% due primarily to a reduction in benefits and claims. The benefits and claims ratio, which is typically lower in the fourth quarter due to seasonally weaker persistency, was 56.6%. The ratio reflects claims that were $3 million favorable to historical trends in the current period compared to excess claims of $19 million driven largely by COVID in the prior year period. In addition, the Company’s annual process to lock in new business assumptions under current GAAP, which historically takes place during the fourth quarter, resulted in

a reserve reduction of $4 million primarily due to higher interest rates. Finally, the administrative reprocessing of certain reinsurance transactions lowered benefits and claims by $2 million.

Persistency has largely normalized in the aggregate, however, lapse rates remained elevated for policies written at the height of the pandemic, while lapses for policies issued prior to the pandemic were generally lower. The DAC amortization ratio of 16.6% for the quarter reflects seasonally weaker persistency and is largely in line with fourth quarter ratios prior to the pandemic. The fourth quarter operating margin was 21.5% compared to 18.6% in the prior year period.

Investment and Savings Products

Total ISP sales during the quarter were $2.1 billion, or 31% lower than the prior year period. Heightened market volatility and economic uncertainty continued to impact investor confidence, pressuring sales and client asset values. However, the Company recorded net inflows of $649 million during the quarter with redemption levels remaining just below 2% of the beginning of quarter assets, which continues to reflect clients’ commitment to their long-term investment objectives. Client asset values ended the year at $83.9 billion, down 14% compared to December 31, 2021.

Revenues of $198.3 million declined 20% and pre-tax income of $57.4 million declined 19% year-over-year due to 35% lower sales-based revenue generating sales and 12% lower average client asset values. Sales-based and asset-based commission revenues and expenses generally declined in line with their related drivers.

Senior Health

Results reflected seasonally heightened activity associated with the Medicare annual enrollment period (“AEP”) with nearly 21,000 policies approved during the fourth quarter. As intended, the Company approved fewer policies than the approximately 32,000 approved in the prior year period as it continues to evaluate emerging profitability dynamics in the sector. The lifetime value of commissions per approved policy (“LTV”) was $888 and the contract acquisition costs per approved policy (“CAC”) was $722, for an LTV/CAC ratio of 1.2x for the period.

Revenues of $27.9 million declined year-over-year as a result of a lower number of approved policies. The Company recognized a positive revenue adjustment of $3.8 million this quarter, largely to reflect the final first year commission collections on 2022 effective policies that was higher than assumed throughout the year. The adjustment increased first year commission revenues to match the actual cash received during the year since these commissions are no longer subject to chargeback. The Company made progress in efficiently procuring and utilizing leads as reflected in a 21% year-over-year improvement of CAC. Adjusted operating income before taxes was $4.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 versus adjusted operating income attributable to Primerica of $0.4 million in the prior year period. The Company did not need to provide any funding to the Senior Health segment during the quarter.

Corporate and Other Distributed Products

During the fourth quarter, the segment recorded an adjusted operating loss before income taxes of $21.9 million compared to a $22.3 million loss in the prior year period. The segment had strong growth in allocated net investment income as described further on a consolidated basis below. Higher market interest rates continued to adversely impact mortgage loan volume. Insurance and other operating expenses increased as a result of general corporate expenditures, including employee compensation and investments in technology. Additionally, interest expense was lower year-over-year, reflecting an overlap of interest obligation during the issuance of new senior notes in 2021.

Invested Asset Portfolio

Consolidated net investment income increased $8.5 million compared to the prior year period, reflecting higher yields on new investments and growth in the size of the invested asset portfolio. About half of the increase was allocated to the Term Life segment as the in-force business continues to grow with the remainder recorded in Corporate and Other Distributed Products.

The invested asset portfolio ended the quarter with an unrealized loss of $306 million, compared to an unrealized loss of $321 million at September 30, 2022 reflecting relatively unchanged Treasury rates, but tighter credit spreads during the period. The Company does not believe the unrealized loss is due to significant credit concerns but is instead due to increasing interest rates and intends to hold these investments until maturity.

Taxes

The effective tax rate during the fourth quarter was 21.3% compared to 47.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021. The 2021 period included a goodwill impairment charge for which the Company does not receive a tax benefit. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, the effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2021 was 22.3%. The effective tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2022 includes a current period tax benefit from revaluing the Canadian deferred tax asset to reflect an incremental Canadian federal tax enacted in December. The incremental Canadian tax is imposed on taxable income in excess of $100 million for banks and life insurance companies.

Capital

During the quarter, the Company repurchased $32.0 million of common stock, for a total of $356.3 million in 2022, resulting in completion of its prior authorization. As announced in November 2022, the Company received a new authorization for a $375 million share repurchase program in 2023. The Board of Directors has also approved a dividend of $0.65 per share, payable on March 14, 2023, to stockholders of record on February 21, 2023.

The Company has a strong balance sheet, including invested assets and cash at the holding company of $307 million. Primerica Life Insurance Company's statutory risk-based capital (RBC) ratio was estimated to be about 475% as of December 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company presents adjusted direct premiums, other ceded premiums, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income, adjusted stockholders’ equity and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share. Adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums are net of amounts ceded under coinsurance transactions that were executed concurrent with our initial public offering (the “IPO coinsurance transactions”) for all periods presented. We exclude amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions in measuring adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums to present meaningful comparisons of the actual premiums economically maintained by the Company. Amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions will continue to decline over time as policies terminate within this block of business. Adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share exclude the impact of investment gains (losses) and fair value mark-to-market (“MTM”) investment adjustments, including credit impairments, for all periods presented. We exclude investment gains (losses), including credit impairments, and MTM investment adjustments in measuring these non-GAAP financial measures to eliminate period-over-period fluctuations that may obscure comparisons of operating results due to items such as the timing of recognizing gains (losses) and market pricing variations prior to an invested asset’s maturity or sale that are not directly associated with the Company’s insurance operations. Adjusted operating income before taxes, adjusted net operating income, and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share also exclude the loss on the extinguishment of debt, transaction-related expenses/recoveries associated with the purchase of e-TeleQuote Insurance, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, “e-TeleQuote”), adjustments to share-based compensation expense for shares exchanged in the business combination, and non-cash goodwill impairment charges. We exclude the loss on the extinguishment of debt, e-TeleQuote transaction-related expenses/recoveries and non-cash goodwill impairment charges as these are non-recurring items that will cause incomparability between period-over-period results. We exclude adjustments to share-based compensation expense for shares exchanged in the business combination to eliminate period-over-period fluctuations that may obscure comparisons of operating results primarily due to the volatility of changes in the fair value of shares which were acquired for no additional consideration. Adjusted operating income before income taxes and adjusted net operating income exclude income attributable to the noncontrolling interest to present only the income that is attributable to stockholders of the Company. Adjusted stockholders’ equity excludes the impact of net unrealized investment gains (losses) recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for all periods presented. We exclude unrealized investment gains (losses) in measuring adjusted stockholders’ equity as unrealized gains (losses) from the Company’s available-for-sale securities are largely caused by market movements in interest rates and credit spreads that do not necessarily correlate with the cash flows we will ultimately realize when an available-for-sale security matures or is sold.

Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of similar measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods as they are expected to be reflective of the core ongoing business. These measures have limitations and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are attached to this release.
