PRESS RELEASE

REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER RESULTS

Earnings per diluted share: $1.94 from operating income* and net income
Higher tax provision and adverse foreign currency translation had a negative impact of $0.14 and $0.08 per diluted share, respectively
Strong results in EMEA and Asia offset by weakness in U.S. Traditional and Australia; Global Financial Solutions (GFS) continues strong performance trend
Reported net premiums decreased 2 percent; up 8 percent net of foreign currency and the effect of fourth-quarter 2014 retrocession transaction
Quarterly shareholder dividend raised 12 percent
Share repurchase authorization increased to $450 million


ST. LOUIS, July 23, 2015 - Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE: RGA), a leading global provider of life reinsurance, reported operating income* of $130.3 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, compared with $155.1 million, or $2.23 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Net income totaled $130.4 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, compared with $198.3 million, or $2.84 per diluted share, the year before. In addition to the higher effective tax rate and foreign currency effects noted above, the current period reflects higher claims in the U.S. and Australia, partially offset by better-than-expected overall results in EMEA and Asia; the year-ago period benefited from the positive effect of a treaty reinstatement and conversion in Asia, which contributed $0.11 per share.

Consolidated net premiums totaled $2.1 billion this quarter, down 2 percent from last year’s second quarter. Current-period premiums reflect a $114 million reduction associated with the previously announced fourth-quarter 2014 U.S. retrocession agreement, along with adverse foreign currency effects of approximately $122 million. Excluding those effects, premiums increased 8 percent versus the prior-year quarter. Investment income increased 10 percent to $450.5 million this period, primarily due to a larger average invested asset base. Excluding spread-based businesses and the value of associated derivatives, investment income increased 7 percent over year-ago levels. The average investment yield was 4.88 percent, nine basis points over the second quarter of 2014, and 10 basis points higher than the first-quarter yield.

Add One

The effective tax rate on operating income was 38.9 percent this quarter, well above management’s expected range of 33 percent to 34 percent, and the comparable prior-year rate of 34.6 percent. Although an extension is expected later this year, Congress has not extended the Active Financing Exception (AFE) legislation, and as a result, the company increased its tax provision nearly $10 million in the second quarter, an adverse effect of $0.14 per diluted share. This amount would be reversed upon extension of the AFE.

Greig Woodring, president and chief executive officer, commented, “Operating income was $130.3 million, or $1.94 per diluted share in the second quarter, compared to $155.1 million a year ago or $2.23 per share. The results this quarter were negatively affected by the higher tax rate and foreign currency weakness. Otherwise, the results generally reflect a continuation of recent trends of balance and diversity of earnings by geography and product line, but with some volatility in segment and business line results consistent with the nature of our business. Most of our international operations continued a pattern of very good results, with the EMEA segment particularly strong, but Australia had a weak quarter, a reversal of some of the experience in the first quarter. The operating income of the Australia operation is essentially in line with expectations on a year-to-date basis. Our Global Financial Solutions business was again a highlight, with the U.S. Asset-Intensive business generating very favorable results. The U.S. Traditional business was weaker than expected, as the elevated mortality claims experienced in the first quarter extended into April before showing some seasonal recovery as the quarter progressed. On a positive note, the Canadian business saw slightly favorable mortality experience, after a string of unfavorable quarters. Therefore, while we continue to see some variability in our businesses from quarter to quarter and line to line, we are pleased that our global operating model has helped us produce favorable financial results over time.

“We continue to pursue a capital management strategy that entails deploying excess capital into attractive block acquisitions, share repurchases and shareholder dividends. After aggressively repurchasing shares in the first quarter of this year, we slowed this activity in the second quarter as we continued to pursue a range of potential block acquisition opportunities. Going forward, we expect to remain active but disciplined as we consider a range of options in terms of capital usage. We announced a dividend increase of 12 percent, and our board also increased the existing share repurchase authorization from $300 million to $450 million, making the current capacity under that authorization nearly $200 million. Our deployable, excess capital position exceeds $750 million. Ending book value per share this quarter was $97.61 including AOCI, and $80.30 excluding AOCI, an 11 percent increase over that of a year ago, when adding back dividends paid over that period.”

SEGMENT RESULTS

U.S. and Latin America

Traditional

The U.S. and Latin America Traditional segment reported pre-tax operating income of $79.4 million, compared with $89.0 million in the second quarter of 2014. The current-period results were lower than expected due primarily to elevated individual mortality claims, particularly older-age policies, and to a lesser extent, adverse group results. Traditional net premiums decreased 2 percent from last year's second

quarter to $1,170.9 million, including the retrocession agreement effective in last year’s fourth quarter, and increased 8 percent excluding that agreement. Pre-tax net income totaled $82.8 million for the quarter, compared with $94.0 million in last year’s second quarter.

Non-Traditional

The Asset-Intensive business reported pre-tax operating income of $56.4 million compared with $44.0 million last year. Results were strong in both periods with the current quarter benefiting primarily from favorable net interest rate spread performance on fixed annuities, as well as the addition of earnings from the Aurora National acquisition. Pre-tax net income decreased to $55.8 million from $81.8 million a year ago, attributable to changes in the fair value of various embedded derivatives.

The Financial Reinsurance business continued to perform well, increasing pre-tax operating income 8 percent to $14.6 million in the second quarter. Pre-tax net income also totaled $14.6 million in the current period compared with $13.7 million in the prior-year quarter.

Canada

Traditional

The Canada Traditional business reported pre-tax operating income of $23.8 million this quarter, down from $27.7 million the year before. Individual mortality claims experience improved relative to that of recent quarters and was slightly favorable this period, but that experience was mostly offset by weaker results in other products and a weaker Canadian dollar. Reported net premiums decreased 9 percent to $225.0 million, primarily due to the weaker currency. Pre-tax net income totaled $22.7 million compared with $32.0 million in the second quarter of 2014.

Non-Traditional

The Canada Non-Traditional business segment, which consists of longevity and fee-based transactions, posted pre-tax operating income and pre-tax net income of $3.1 million this quarter compared with $3.0 million in the prior-year quarter.

In total, a relatively weaker Canadian dollar lowered net premiums and pre-tax operating income by approximately $30.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively, during the quarter. In Canadian dollars, premiums increased 4 percent over the second quarter of 2014.

Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA)

Traditional

The EMEA Traditional segment reported pre-tax operating income of $9.2 million compared with $23.1 million in last year’s second quarter, a difficult comparison given the very favorable mortality and morbidity results in last year’s quarter. Current-period claims experience was at expected levels. Net reported premiums decreased 4 percent and totaled $275.7 million, compared with $286.4 million in the prior-year quarter. Net foreign currency fluctuations adversely affected pre-tax operating income and premiums again this quarter. Pre-tax net income totaled $9.2 million versus $26.8 million in the year-ago quarter.

Add Three

Non-Traditional

The EMEA Non-Traditional segment includes asset-intensive, longevity and fee-based transactions. Pre-tax operating income increased sharply to $31.8 million from $21.6 million a year ago, primarily due to the execution of two longevity transactions this quarter and favorable experience on existing longevity business. Pre-tax net income totaled $31.4 million this quarter, compared with $34.5 million in last year’s second quarter.

In total, adverse foreign currency fluctuations reduced net premiums and pre-tax operating income by $40.2 million and $5.0 million, respectively. EMEA premiums based in local currencies increased 7 percent over the second quarter of 2014.

Asia Pacific

Traditional

Asia Pacific’s Traditional business reported pre-tax operating income of $4.3 million, down from $26.3 million in the prior-year quarter. The Australia operation posted poor results in its individual and group morbidity product lines, contributing to a pre-tax operating loss of approximately $20 million in that market. That performance follows an unusually strong first quarter result. For the first six months, results in Australia were still profitable, in line with expected levels. Outside of Australia, Traditional businesses performed very well, with particularly strong results from our operations in Hong Kong & Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea.

Traditional net premiums were even with the prior-year period at $390.5 million, including significant adverse foreign currency fluctuations compared with the prior year. Pre-tax net income totaled $4.3 million compared with $28.2 million in last year’s second quarter.

Non-Traditional

Asia Pacific’s Non-Traditional business includes asset-intensive, fee-based and various other transactions. Pre-tax operating income in this segment decreased to $0.7 million from $3.1 million last year due to lower volume and less favorable experience on certain treaties. Pre-tax net losses were $1.4 million this quarter versus pre-tax net income of $6.7 million in the year-ago period.

In total, Asia Pacific premiums included an adverse foreign currency effect of $51.0 million compared to the prior-year quarter. Local currency premiums increased 12 percent over the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax operating income benefited by $0.9 million from currency fluctuations, reflecting favorable effects on the losses incurred in Australia.

Corporate and Other

The Corporate and Other segment reported pre-tax operating losses of $9.9 million this period and $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2014. Current-quarter results were in line with expectations. Pre-tax net losses were $8.7 million this quarter and $20.2 million a year ago.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called 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 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, operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, and other items that management believes are not indicative of the company’s ongoing operations. The definition of operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income. Reconciliations to GAAP net income 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 “Quarterly Results” tab and in the “Featured Report” section.

Book value per share before 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.

Operating income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI.
