Third Quarter Actuarial Assumptions Update
Consistent with the Company’s historical practice, the Company is currently engaged in its annual review and update of actuarial assumptions. The results of this review and update will be reflected in its financial results for the quarter ending September 30, 2018, which it currently plans to report on October 30, 2018.
Because the Company’s review and update of actuarial assumptions is not yet complete, the Company does not know at this time the full effect of this work on its financial results. Based on the work it has done to date, however, the Company currently believes that its update of actuarial assumptions will include an update for anticipated increases in premium payable under certain third-party reinsurance treaties or, in some cases, recapture in lieu of such increases. Although these increases in premium or recaptures, as the case may be, have not yet been agreed to or become effective, and may not ever become effective, the Company’s current best estimates include an increase in future reinsurance premium or recapture of certain ceded business.
The Company currently estimates that updating its actuarial assumptions for increased reinsurance premium or recapture of business will result in a charge for unfavorable unlocking of deferred acquisition costs, value of business acquired, and other intangibles of between $150 million and $200 million, which will be recognized in the Company’s U.S. GAAP financial results for the quarter ending September 30, 2018. The Company would also increase its reserves in connection with these updates. These estimates do not include the effect of any other updates to the Company’s actuarial assumptions, which may offset (in whole or part) or increase the total U.S. GAAP charge that will be recognized, and may also cause the Company to further increase, or to reduce, its reserves.
