(1)        Effective January 1, 2016, we no longer consolidate the results from our operating joint venture in India and, therefore, we do not report India’s results on the operating premiums, universal life and investment-type product policy fees, other revenues and other operating expenses lines on the statement of operating earnings available to common shareholders. The removal of India’s results from prior years’ operating premiums, universal life and investment-type product policy fees, other revenues and other operating expenses provides comparability between periods.

 

(2)        Operating premiums, universal life and investment-type product policy fees, other revenues and other operating expenses are reported as part of net investment income on the statement of operating earnings available to common shareholders for operating joint ventures.

 

(3)        Includes MetLife, Inc.’s percentage interest in operating joint ventures as follows: (i) India, 26%; (ii) Vietnam, 60%; (iii) China, 50%; and (iv) Malaysia, 50%.

(1)          Amounts presented are based on ratings of NRSRO and the applicable NAIC designation from the NAIC published comparison of NRSRO ratings to NAIC designations, except for certain structured securities described below. NRSRO ratings are based on availability of applicable ratings. If no NRSRO rating is available, then an internally developed rating is used. Amounts presented for certain structured securities (i.e., non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities), held by MetLife, Inc.'s insurance subsidiaries that maintain the NAIC statutory basis of accounting are based on designations from revised NAIC methodologies. The NAIC's present methodology is to evaluate structured securities held by insurers using the revised NAIC methodologies on an annual basis. An internally developed designation is used until a final designation becomes available from the NAIC annual review. These revised NAIC designations may not correspond to NRSRO ratings.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

 

In this QFS, MetLife presents certain measures of its performance that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of our performance by highlighting the results of operations and the underlying profitability drivers of our business.

 

The following non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP:

    (xii)   MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA    (xii)   MetLife, Inc.’s stockholders’ equity

 

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this QFS and in this period’s earnings news release which is available at www.metlife.com.

 

Our definitions of the various non-GAAP and other financial measures discussed in this QFS may differ from those used by other companies:

 

Operating earnings and related measures

 

 

 

operating earnings;

 

 

 

operating earnings available to common shareholders; and

 

 

 

operating earnings available to common shareholders per diluted common share.

 

These measures are used by management to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Consistent with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, operating earnings is also MetLife’s GAAP measure of segment performance. Operating earnings and other financial measures based on operating earnings are also the measures by which MetLife senior management’s and many other employees’ performance is evaluated for the purposes of determining their compensation under applicable compensation plans. Operating earnings and other financial measures based on operating earnings allow analysis of our performance relative to our business plan and facilitate comparisons to industry results.

 

Operating earnings is defined as operating revenues less operating expenses, both net of income tax. Operating earnings available to common shareholders is defined as operating earnings less preferred stock dividends.

 

Operating revenues and operating expenses

 

These financial measures, along with the related operating premiums, fees and other revenues, focus on our primary businesses principally by excluding the impact of market volatility, which could distort trends, and revenues and costs related to non-core products and divested businesses and certain entities required to be consolidated under GAAP. Also, these measures exclude results of discontinued operations and other businesses that have been or will be sold or exited by MetLife (“Divested businesses”). In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, operating revenues and operating expenses exclude the financial impact of converting MetLife’s Japan operations to calendar year-end reporting without retrospective application of this change to prior periods (“Lag elimination”). Operating revenues also excludes NIGL and NDGL. Operating expenses also excludes goodwill impairments.

 

The following additional adjustments are made to revenues, in the line items indicated, in calculating operating revenues:

 

 

 

Universal life and investment-type product policy fees excludes the amortization of unearned revenue related to NIGL and NDGL (“Unearned revenue adjustments”) and certain variable annuity GMIB fees (“GMIB fees”);

 

 

 

Net investment income: (i) includes earned income on derivatives and amortization of premium on derivatives that are hedges of investments or that are used to replicate certain investments but do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment (“Investment hedge adjustments”), (ii) excludes post-tax operating earnings adjustments relating to insurance joint ventures accounted for under the equity method (“Operating joint venture adjustments”), (iii) excludes certain amounts related to contractholder-directed unit-linked investments (“Unit-linked contract income”), and (iv) excludes certain amounts related to securitization entities that are VIEs consolidated under GAAP (“Securitization entities income”); and

 

 

 

Other revenues are adjusted for settlements of foreign currency earnings hedges.

 

The following additional adjustments are made to expenses, in the line items indicated, in calculating operating expenses:

 

 

 

Policyholder benefits and claims and policyholder dividends excludes: (i) changes in the policyholder dividend obligation related to NIGL and NDGL (“PDO adjustments”), (ii) inflation-indexed benefit adjustments associated with contracts backed by inflation-indexed investments and amounts associated with periodic crediting rate adjustments based on the total return of a contractually referenced pool of assets and other pass through adjustments (“Inflation and pass through adjustments”), (iii) benefits and hedging costs related to GMIBs (“GMIB costs”), and (iv) market value adjustments associated with surrenders or terminations of contracts (“Market value adjustments”);

 

 

 

Interest credited to policyholder account balances includes adjustments for earned income on derivatives and amortization of premium on derivatives that are hedges of policyholder account balances but do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment (“PAB hedge adjustments”) and excludes amounts related to net investment income earned on contractholder-directed unit-linked investments (“Unit-linked contract costs”);

METLIFE

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES (CONTINUED)

 

 

 

Amortization of DAC and VOBA excludes amounts related to: (i) NIGL and NDGL, (ii) GMIB fees and GMIB costs, and (iii) Market value adjustments;

 

 

 

Amortization of negative VOBA excludes amounts related to Market value adjustments;

 

 

 

Interest expense on debt excludes certain amounts related to securitization entities that are VIEs consolidated under GAAP (“Securitization entities debt expense”); and

 

 

 

Other operating expenses excludes costs related to: (i) noncontrolling interests, (ii) implementation of new insurance regulatory requirements (“Regulatory implementation costs”), and (iii) acquisition, integration and other costs.

 

Operating earnings also excludes the recognition of certain contingent assets and liabilities that could not be recognized at acquisition or adjusted for during the measurement period under GAAP business combination accounting guidance.

 

The tax impact of the adjustments mentioned above are calculated net of the U.S. or foreign statutory tax rate, which could differ from the Company’s effective tax rate. Additionally, the provision for income tax (expense) benefit also includes the impact related to the timing of certain tax credits, as well as certain tax reforms.

 

Investment portfolio gains (losses) and derivative gains (losses)

 

These are measures of investment and hedging activity. Investment portfolio gains (losses) principally excludes amounts that are reported within net investment gains (losses) but do not relate to the performance of the investment portfolio, such as gains (losses) on sales and divestitures of businesses or goodwill impairment. Derivative gains (losses) principally excludes earned income on derivatives and amortization of premium on derivatives, where such derivatives are either hedges of investments or are used to replicate certain investments, and where such derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting. This earned income and amortization of premium is reported within operating earnings and not within derivative gains (losses).

 

Return on equity, allocated equity, tangible equity and related measures

 

  

 

MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA - MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding the net unrealized investment gains (losses) and defined benefit plans adjustment components of AOCI, net of income tax.

 

  

 

Operating return on MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA - operating earnings available to common shareholders divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA.

 

  

 

Operating return on MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity - operating earnings available to common shareholders divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average common stockholders’ equity.

 

  

 

Return on MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA - net income (loss) available to MetLife, Inc.’s common shareholders divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average common stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI other than FCTA.

 

  

 

Return on MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity - net income (loss) available to MetLife, Inc.’s common shareholders divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average common stockholders’ equity.

 

  

 

Allocated equity - portion of MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity that management allocates to each of its segments and sub-segments based on local capital requirements and economic capital. Economic capital is an internally developed risk capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business and to provide a basis upon which capital is deployed. MetLife management periodically reviews this model to ensure that it remains consistent with emerging industry practice standards and the local capital requirements; allocated equity may be adjusted if warranted by such review. Allocated equity excludes the impact of AOCI other than FCTA.

 

  

 

Operating return on allocated equity - operating earnings available to common shareholders divided by allocated equity.

 

  

 

Return on allocated equity - net income (loss) available to MetLife, Inc.’s common shareholders divided by allocated equity.

    

 

The above measures represent a level of equity consistent with the view that, in the ordinary course of business, we do not plan to sell most investments for the sole purpose of realizing gains or losses. Also, refer to the utilization of operating earnings and other financial measures based on operating earnings mentioned above.

 

  

 

MetLife, Inc.’s tangible common stockholders’ equity or tangible equity - MetLife, Inc.’s common stockholders’ equity, excluding the net unrealized investment gains (losses) and defined benefit plans adjustment components of AOCI reduced by the impact of goodwill, VODA and VOCRA, all net of income tax.

 

  

 

Operating return on MetLife, Inc.’s tangible common stockholders’ equity - operating earnings available to common shareholders, excluding amortization of VODA and VOCRA, net of income tax, divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average tangible common stockholders’ equity.

 

  

 

Return on MetLife, Inc.’s tangible common stockholders’ equity - net income (loss) available to MetLife, Inc.’s common shareholders, excluding goodwill impairment and amortization of VODA and VOCRA, net of income tax, divided by MetLife, Inc.’s average tangible common stockholders’ equity.

 

  

 

Operating return on allocated tangible equity - operating earnings available to common shareholders, excluding amortization of VODA and VOCRA, net of income tax, divided by allocated tangible equity.

 

  

 

Return on allocated tangible equity - net income (loss) available to MetLife, Inc.’s common shareholders, excluding amortization of VODA and VOCRA, net of income tax, divided by allocated tangible equity.

    

 

The above measures are, when considered in conjunction with regulatory capital ratios, a measure of capital adequacy.

 

The following additional information is relevant to an understanding of our performance results:

 

  

 

Statistical sales information for Latin America, Asia and EMEA - calculated using 10% of single-premium deposits (mainly from retirement products such as variable annuity, fixed annuity and pensions), 20% of single-premium deposits from credit insurance and 100% of annualized full-year premiums and fees from recurring-premium policy sales of all products (mainly from risk and protection products such as individual life, accident & health and group). Sales statistics do not correspond to revenues under GAAP, but are used as relevant measures of business activity.

 

  

 

All comparisons on a constant currency basis reflect the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and are calculated using the average foreign currency exchange rates for the current period and are applied to each of the comparable periods. As a result, amounts will be updated each period to reflect the average foreign currency exchange rates.
