DES
MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 6, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- F&G Annuities & Life, Inc. (NYSE: FG)
(F&G or the Company) a leading provider of insurance solutions
serving retail annuity and life customers and institutional
clients, today reported financial results for the third quarter
ended September 30, 2024.
Net loss attributable to common shareholders (net loss) for
the third quarter was $10
million, or $0.08 per diluted
share (per share), compared to net earnings of $306 million, or $2.45 per share, for the third quarter of
2023. Net loss for the third quarter of 2024 included
$150 million of net unfavorable
mark-to-market effects and $16
million of other unfavorable items; all of which are
excluded from adjusted net earnings. Net earnings for the
third quarter of 2023 included $191
million of net favorable mark-to-market effects and
$5 million of other unfavorable
items; all of which are excluded from adjusted net earnings.
Adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders
(adjusted net earnings) for the third quarter were
$156 million, or $1.22 per share, compared to $120 million, or $0.96 per share for the third quarter of
2023. Adjusted net earnings include significant income and
expense items and alternative investment portfolio returns from
short-term mark-to-market movement that differ from long-term
return expectations. The third quarter of 2024 includes
short-term investment income from alternative investments,
$21 million of CLO redemption gains
and bond prepay income, and $14
million tax valuation allowance benefit; partially offset by
$17 million net expense from
actuarial assumption updates. The third quarter of 2023 included
short-term investment income from alternative investments. Please
see "Third Quarter 2024 Results" and "Non-GAAP Measures and Other
Information" for further explanation.
Company Highlights
- Sustainable sales growth across multi-channel platform:
Gross sales of $3.9 billion for the
third quarter, an increase of 39% over the third quarter 2023,
primarily driven by record retail channel sales
- Record invested assets with strong investment returns:
Record assets under management before flow reinsurance of
$62.9 billion at the end of the third
quarter, an increase of 20% over the third quarter 2023. This
included record assets under management (AUM) of $52.5 billion, an increase 11% over the third
quarter 2023 driven by retained new business flows and net debt and
equity proceeds over the past twelve months. The investment
portfolio is performing well, as expected
- Strong and expanding adjusted return on assets (ROA),
excluding significant items: Demonstrated ROA expansion above
baseline of 110 basis points shared at our Investor Day in
October 2023
- Solid balance sheet supports both organic growth and return
of capital to shareholders: F&G returned $31 million of capital to shareholders from
common and preferred dividends in the third quarter
Chris Blunt, Chief Executive
Officer, commented, "Our strong results through the first nine
months have positioned us well for the remainder of the year and we
continue to make great progress toward our Investor Day targets.
We have profitably grown assets under management before flow
reinsurance to a record $62.9 billion
at the end of the quarter. Gross sales of $3.9 billion increased 39% over the third quarter
of 2023 and were boosted by record retail sales of $3.5 billion, nearly double the third quarter of
2023. We continue to benefit as consumers want to secure the
relatively higher interest rates, guaranteed tax deferred growth
and principal protection that annuity products offer, and we are
seeing a healthy PRT pipeline with some significant early wins in
the fourth quarter. Excluding significant items, we generated
$179 million of adjusted net earnings
in the third quarter and expanded our trailing twelve months
adjusted return on assets to 126 basis points. I am confident
in our ability to expand our margin even in a lower rate
environment and we will continue to benefit from our accretive flow
reinsurance and owned distribution strategies, setting F&G
apart."

Third Quarter 2024 Results
Robust profitable
gross sales: Gross sales were $3.9
billion for the third quarter, an increase of 39% over the
third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by record retail sales.
Record Retail channel sales were $3.5 billion for the third quarter, an increase
of 84% over the third quarter of 2023, driven by favorable economic
conditions and strong demand for retirement savings products.
Institutional market sales were nearly $0.4 billion of pension risk transfer for the
third quarter, compared to $0.9
billion of pension risk transfer and funding agreements in
third quarter of 2023. Institutional sales are opportunistic
and volumes vary quarter to quarter.
Net sales were $2.4 billion
for the third quarter, an increase of 4% over the third quarter of
2023.
Record assets under management before flow reinsurance
was $62.9 billion at the end of the
third quarter, an increase of 20% over the third quarter of
2023. This included record AUM of $52.5 billion, an increase of 11% from third
quarter 2023. A rollforward of AUM can be found in the
Non-GAAP Measures section of this release.
Adjusted net earnings were $156
million, or $1.22 per share,
in the third quarter, compared to $120
million, or $0.96 per share
for the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net earnings include
significant income and expense items and alternative investment
portfolio returns from short-term mark-to-market movement that
differ from long-term return expectations.
- Adjusted net earnings of $156
million, or $1.22 per share,
for the third quarter of 2024 include $131 million, or $1.00 per share, of investment income from
alternative investments, $21 million,
or $0.15 per share, of CLO redemption
gains and bond prepay income, and $14
million, or $0.11 per share,
of tax valuation allowance; partially offset by $17 million, or $0.13 per share, of net expense from actuarial
assumption updates. Alternative investments investment income based
on management's long-term expected return of approximately 10% was
$172 million, or $1.31 per share.
- Adjusted net earnings of $120
million, or $0.96 per share,
for the third quarter of 2023 include $114 million, or $0.91 per share, of investment income from
alternative investments. Alternative investments investment income
based on management's long-term expected return of approximately
10% was $142 million, or $1.13 per share.
As compared to the prior year, the adjusted net earnings
increase reflects asset growth, margin diversification from
accretive flow reinsurance fees and owned distribution margin,
disciplined expense management and higher interest expense due to
planned capital market activity.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to
the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP
includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow
in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of
financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in
accordance with GAAP, this presentation includes non-GAAP financial
measures, which the Company believes are useful to help investors
better understand its financial performance, competitive position
and prospects for the future. Management believes these non-GAAP
financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide
additional meaningful comparisons between current results and
results in prior operating periods. Our non-GAAP measures may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures of other organizations
because other organizations may not calculate such non-GAAP
measures in the same manner as we do. The presentation of this
financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation
of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial
information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. By
disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, the Company believes
it offers investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced
level of transparency into, the means by which the Company's
management operates the Company. Any non-GAAP measures should be
considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and
should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP
net earnings, net earnings attributable to common shareholders, or
any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of
operating performance or liquidity. Reconciliations of these
non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
measures are provided within.
Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors
This press
release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to
known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond
our control. Some of the forward-looking statements can be
identified by the use of terms such as "believes", "expects",
"may", "will", "could", "seeks", "intends", "plans", "estimates",
"anticipates" or other comparable terms. Statements that are not
historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations,
hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on
management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and
information currently available to, management. Because such
statements are based on expectations as to future financial and
operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results
may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks
and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to
include, but are not limited to: general economic conditions and
other factors, including prevailing interest and unemployment rate
levels and stock and credit market performance; natural disasters,
public health crises, international tensions and conflicts,
geopolitical events, terrorist acts, labor strikes, political
crisis, accidents and other events; concentration in certain states
for distribution of our products; the impact of interest rate
fluctuations; equity market volatility or disruption; the impact of
credit risk of our counterparties; changes in our assumptions and
estimates regarding amortization of our deferred acquisition costs,
deferred sales inducements and value of business acquired balances;
regulatory changes or actions, including those relating to
regulation of financial services affecting (among other things)
underwriting of insurance products and regulation of the sale,
underwriting and pricing of products and minimum capitalization and
statutory reserve requirements for insurance companies, or the
ability of our insurance subsidiaries to make cash distributions to
us; and other factors discussed in "Risk Factors" and other
sections of F&G's Form 10-K and other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

DEFINITIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following
represents the definitions of non-GAAP measures used by
F&G:
|
|
Adjusted Net
Earnings attributable to common shareholders
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted net earnings
attributable to common shareholders is a non-GAAP economic measure
we use to evaluate financial performance each period. Adjusted net
earnings attributable to common shareholders is calculated by
adjusting net earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders
to eliminate:
|
(i)
Recognized (gains) and losses, net: the impact of net investment
gains/losses, including changes in allowance for expected credit
losses and other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") losses,
recognized in operations; and the effects of changes in fair value
of the reinsurance related embedded derivative and other
derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forwards;
|
(ii)
Market related liability adjustments: the impacts related to
changes in the fair value, including both realized and unrealized
gains and losses, of index product related derivatives and embedded
derivatives, net of hedging cost; the impact of initial pension
risk transfer deferred profit liability losses, including
amortization from previously deferred pension risk transfer
deferred profit liability losses; and the changes in the fair value
of market risk benefits by deferring current period changes and
amortizing that amount over the life of the market risk
benefit;
|
(iii) Purchase
price amortization: the impacts related to the amortization of
certain intangibles (internally developed software, trademarks and
value of distribution asset and the change in fair value of
liabilities recognized as a result of acquisition
activities);
|
(iv) Transaction
costs: the impacts related to acquisition, integration and merger
related items;
|
(v) Other
"non-recurring," "infrequent" or "unusual items": Management
excludes certain items determined to be "non-recurring,"
"infrequent" or "unusual" from adjusted net earnings when incurred
if it is determined these expenses are not a reflection of the core
business and when the nature of the item is such that it is not
reasonably likely to recur within two years and/or there was not a
similar item in the preceding two years;
|
(vi)
Non-controlling interest on non-GAAP adjustments: the portion of
the non-GAAP adjustments attributable to the equity interest of
entities that F&G does not wholly own; and
|
(vii) Income
taxes: the income tax impact related to the above-mentioned
adjustments is measured using an effective tax rate, as appropriate
by tax jurisdiction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While these adjustments
are an integral part of the overall performance of F&G, market
conditions and/or the non-operating nature of these items can
overshadow the underlying performance of the core business.
Accordingly, management considers this to be a useful measure
internally and to investors and analysts in analyzing the trends of
our operations. Adjusted net earnings should not be used as a
substitute for net earnings (loss). However, we believe the
adjustments made to net earnings (loss) in order to derive adjusted
net earnings provide an understanding of our overall results of
operations.
|
|
Adjusted Weighted
Average Diluted Shares Outstanding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted weighted
average diluted shares outstanding is the same as weighted average
diluted shares outstanding except for periods in which our
preferred stocks are calculated to be dilutive to either net
earnings attributable to common shareholders or adjusted net
earnings attributable to common shareholders, but not both, or
there is a net earnings loss attributable to common shareholders on
a GAAP basis, but positive adjusted net earnings attributable to
common shareholders using the non-GAAP measure. The above
exceptions are made to include relevant diluted shares when
dilution occurs and exclude relevant diluted shares when dilution
does not occur for adjusted net earnings attributable to common
shareholders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and for
investors and analysts to assess the level of return driven by the
Company that is available to common shareholders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted Net
Earnings attributable to common shareholders per Diluted
Share
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted net earnings
attributable to common shareholders per diluted share is calculated
as adjusted net earnings plus preferred stock dividend (if the
preferred stock has created dilution). This sum is then divided by
the adjusted weighted-average diluted shares
outstanding.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and for
investors and analysts to assess the level of return driven by the
Company that is available to common shareholders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted Return on
Assets attributable to Common Shareholders
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted return on
assets attributable to common shareholders is calculated by
dividing year-to-date annualized adjusted net earnings attributable
to common shareholders by year-to-date AAUM. Return on assets
is comprised of net investment income, less cost of funds, flow
reinsurance fee income, owned distribution margin and less expenses
(including operating expenses, interest expense and income taxes)
consistent with our adjusted net earnings definition and related
adjustments. Cost of funds includes liability costs related to cost
of crediting as well as other liability costs. Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to
investors and analysts when assessing financial performance and
profitability earned on AAUM.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted Return on
Average Common Shareholder Equity, excluding AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjusted return on
average common shareholder equity is calculated by dividing the
rolling four quarters adjusted net earnings attributable to common
shareholders, by total average F&G equity attributable to
common shareholders, excluding AOCI. Average equity
attributable to common shareholders, excluding AOCI for the twelve
month rolling period is the average of 5 points throughout the
period. Since AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to
unrealized changes in the fair value of available for sale
investments, changes in instrument-specific credit risk for market
risk benefits and discount rate assumption changes for the future
policy benefits, management considers this non-GAAP financial
measure to be a useful internally and for investors and analysts to
assess the level return driven by the Company's adjusted
earnings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assets Under
Management (AUM)
|
|
AUM is comprised of the
following components and is reported net of reinsurance assets
ceded in accordance with GAAP:
|
(i) total invested
assets at amortized cost, excluding investments in unconsolidated
affiliates, owned distribution and derivatives;
|
(ii) investments in
unconsolidated affiliates at carrying value;
|
(iii) related party
loans and investments;
|
(iv) accrued
investment income;
|
(v) the net
payable/receivable for the purchase/sale of investments;
and
|
(vi) cash and cash
equivalents excluding derivative collateral at the end of the
period.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to
investors and analysts when assessing the size of our investment
portfolio that is retained.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AUM before Flow
Reinsurance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AUM before Flow
Reinsurance is comprised of components consistent with AUM, but
also includes flow reinsured assets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to
investors and analysts when assessing the size of our investment
portfolio including reinsured assets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Average Assets Under
Management (AAUM) (Quarterly and YTD)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AAUM is calculated as
AUM at the beginning of the period and the end of each month in the
period, divided by the total number of months in the period plus
one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Management considers
this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to
investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on
retained assets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Book Value per
Common Share, excluding AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Book value per Common
share, excluding AOCI is calculated as total F&G equity
attributable to common shareholders divided by the total number of
shares of common stock outstanding. Management considers this to be
a useful measure internally and for investors and analysts to
assess the capital position of the Company.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debt-to-Capitalization Ratio, excluding
AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debt-to-capitalization
ratio is computed by dividing total aggregate principal amount of
debt by total capitalization (total debt plus total equity,
excluding AOCI). Management considers this non-GAAP financial
measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when
assessing its capital position.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Return on Average
F&G common shareholder Equity, excluding AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Return on average
F&G common shareholder equity, excluding AOCI is
calculated by dividing the rolling four quarters net earnings
(loss) attributable to common shareholders, by total average
F&G equity attributable to common shareholders, excluding AOCI.
Average F&G equity attributable to common shareholders,
excluding AOCI for the twelve month rolling period is the average
of 5 points throughout the period. Since AOCI fluctuates from
quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes in the fair value of
available for sale investments, changes in instrument-specific
credit risk for market risk benefits and discount rate assumption
changes for the future policy benefits, management considers this
non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and for
investors and analysts to assess the level of return driven by the
Company that is available to common shareholders.

|
|
|
|
|
Sales
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Annuity, IUL, funding
agreement and non-life contingent PRT sales are not derived from
any specific GAAP income statement accounts or line items and
should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure
determined in accordance with GAAP. Sales from these products
are recorded as deposit liabilities (i.e., contractholder funds)
within the Company's consolidated financial statements in
accordance with GAAP. Life contingent PRT sales are recorded
as premiums in revenues within the consolidated financial
statements. Management believes that presentation of sales, as
measured for management purposes, enhances the understanding of our
business and helps depict longer term trends that may not be
apparent in the results of operations due to the timing of sales
and revenue recognition.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Total
Capitalization, excluding AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Total capitalization,
excluding AOCI is based on total equity excluding the effect of
AOCI and the total aggregate principal amount of debt. Since
AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes
in the fair value of available for sale investments, changes in
instrument-specific credit risk for market risk benefits and
discount rate assumption changes for the future policy benefits,
management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to provide
useful supplemental information internally and to investors and
analysts to help assess the capital position of the
Company.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Total Equity,
excluding AOCI
|
|
Total equity, excluding
AOCI is based on total equity excluding the effect of AOCI. Since
AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes
in the fair value of available for sale investments, changes in
instrument-specific credit risk for market risk benefits and
discount rate assumption changes for the future policy benefits,
management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to provide
useful supplemental information internally and to investors and
analysts assessing the level of earned equity on total
equity.

|
Total F&G Equity
attributable to common shareholders, excluding AOCI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Total F&G equity
attributable to common shareholder, excluding AOCI is based on
total F&G Annuities & Life, Inc. shareholders' equity
excluding the effect of AOCI and preferred stocks, including
additional paid-in-capital. Since AOCI fluctuates from quarter to
quarter due to unrealized changes in the fair value of available
for sale investments, changes in instrument-specific credit risk
for market risk benefits and discount rate assumption changes for
the future policy benefits, management considers this non-GAAP
financial measure to be useful internally and for investors and
analysts to assess the level of return driven by the Company that
is available to common shareholders.
