Solid third quarter results with earnings per share up 18%, continued strong sales momentum
CARMEL, Ind., Oct. 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CNO Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: CNO) today announced that for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, net income was $105.0 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared to $99.8 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, in 3Q21. Net operating income (1) in 3Q22 was $56.9 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared to $92.8 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, in 3Q21.
"CNO again delivered solid earnings in a challenging macroeconomic environment," said Gary C. Bhojwani, chief executive officer. "Continued strong production in our annuities, direct-to-consumer and worksite businesses resulted in gains in total new annualized premiums for the quarter. Increases in our capital ratios and the consistent strength of our balance sheet underscore our disciplined capital management. While economic uncertainty is likely to persist, the resiliency of our diverse business model positions us well to continue to capitalize on the growing needs of our market and to deliver sustainable long-term value to our shareholders."
Third Quarter 2022 Highlights
- Earnings per diluted share of $0.91 in 3Q22, up from $0.77 in 3Q21

- Pre-tax operating earnings of $74.3 million in 3Q22, compared to $119.3 million in 3Q21, reflecting: (i) lower variable investment income returns; (ii) unfavorable impacts to the fixed index annuity margin from market volatility; and (iii) higher expenses related to continued investment in growth initiatives

- Return on equity (ROE) of 13.0%; operating ROE, as adjusted (6), of 10.2%

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Quarter End
(Amounts in millions, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
|
|
Net operating income, a non-GAAP(a) financial measure, is used consistently by CNO's management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and is a measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. It differs from net income primarily because it excludes certain non-operating items such as net investment gains (losses), changes in fair values of embedded derivatives and the liability for a deferred compensation plan, and certain significant and unusual items included in net income. Management believes an analysis of net operating income is important in understanding the profitability and operating trends of the Company's business. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

(a)
|
GAAP is defined as accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
|
(b)
|
Income from insurance products is the sum of the insurance margins of the annuity, health and life segments, less allocated insurance administrative expenses. It excludes the fee income segment, investment income not allocated to product lines, expenses not allocated to product lines and income taxes. Insurance margin is management's measure of the profitability of its annuity, health and life segments' performance and consists of premiums plus allocated investment income less insurance policy benefits, interest credited, commissions, advertising expense and amortization of acquisition costs.
|
(c)
|
Investment income not allocated to product lines is defined as net investment income less: (i) equity returns credited to policyholder account balances; (ii) the investment income allocated to our product lines; (iii) interest expense on notes payable and investment borrowings; (iv) expenses related to the funding agreement-backed notes ("FABN") program; and (v) certain expenses related to benefit plans that are offset by special-purpose investment income.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY (continued)
Management vs. GAAP Measures
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
(Unaudited)
|
|
Shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and book value per share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), are non-GAAP measures that are utilized by management to view the business without the effect of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) which is primarily attributable to fluctuations in interest rates associated with fixed maturities, available for sale. Management views the business in this manner because the Company has the ability and generally, the intent, to hold investments to maturity and meaningful trends can be more easily identified without the fluctuations. In addition, shareholders' equity excludes net operating loss carryforwards in our non-GAAP return on equity measures as such assets are not discounted and, accordingly, will not provide a return to shareholders until after it is realized as a reduction to taxes that would otherwise be paid. Management believes that excluding this value from the equity component of this measure enhances the understanding of the effect these non-discounted assets have on operating returns.

INVESTMENTS
INVESTMENT INCOME NOT ALLOCATED TO PRODUCT LINES
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)
|
|
Management uses investment income not allocated to product lines as the measure to evaluate the performance of the investment segment. It is defined as net investment income less: (i) equity returns credited to policyholder account balances; (ii) the investment income allocated to our product lines; (iii) interest expense on notes payable and investment borrowings; (iv) expenses related to the FABN program; and (v) certain expenses related to benefit plans that are offset by special-purpose investment income. We also view investment income not allocated to product lines per diluted share as an important and useful measure to evaluate performance of the investment segment as it takes into consideration our share repurchase program.

____________________

Certain structured securities rated below investment grade by Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations may be assigned a NAIC 1 or NAIC 2 designation based on the cost basis of the security relative to estimated recoverable amounts as determined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC).
|
The fair value of CNO's available for sale fixed maturity portfolio was $20.3 billion compared with an amortized cost of $23.4 billion. Net unrealized losses were comprised of gross unrealized gains of $94.0 million and gross unrealized losses of $3,183.4 million. The allowance for credit losses was $52.0 million at September 30, 2022.
At amortized cost and fair value, 94 percent and 93 percent of fixed maturities, available for sale, were rated "investment grade", respectively.
Non-Operating Items
Net investment losses in 3Q22 were $.1 million (net of related amortization) including the favorable change in the allowance for credit losses of $7.5 million which was recorded in earnings. Net investment gains in 3Q21 were $2.2 million (net of related amortization) including the unfavorable change in the allowance for credit losses of $1.4 million which was recorded in earnings.
During 3Q22 and 3Q21, we recognized a decrease in earnings of $17.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively, due to the net change in market value of investments recognized in earnings.
During 3Q22 and 3Q21, we recognized an increase in earnings of $66.0 million and $10.9 million, respectively, resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities, net of related amortization. Such amounts include the impacts of changes in market interest rates used to determine the derivative's estimated fair value.
In 3Q22, other non-operating items included an increase in earnings of $12.0 million for the mark-to-market change in the agent deferred compensation plan liability which was impacted by changes in the underlying actuarial assumptions used to value the liability. We recognize the mark-to-market change in the estimated value of this liability through earnings as assumptions change.
Statutory (based on non-GAAP measures) and GAAP Capital Information
Our consolidated statutory risk-based capital ratio was estimated at 375% at September 30, 2022, reflecting estimated 3Q22 statutory operating income of $65 million (and $189 million in the first nine months of 2022) and the payment of insurance company dividends to the holding company of $11.0 million during 3Q22 (and $95.0 million, net of capital contributions, in the first nine months of 2022).
During the third quarter of 2022, we repurchased $10.0 million of common stock under our securities repurchase program. We repurchased .6 million common shares at an average cost of $17.84 per share. As of September 30, 2022, we had 114.4 million shares outstanding and had authority to repurchase up to an additional $196.9 million of our common stock. During 3Q22, dividends paid on common stock totaled $16.1 million.
Unrestricted cash and investments held by our holding company were $162 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $249 million at December 31, 2021.
Book value per common share was $11.35 at September 30, 2022 compared to $43.69 at December 31, 2021. Book value per diluted share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (2), was $29.87 at September 30, 2022, compared to $26.86 at December 31, 2021.
The debt-to-capital ratio was 46.7 percent and 17.8 percent at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Our debt-to-total capital ratio, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (3) was 24.7 percent at September 30, 2022, compared to 25.6 percent at December 31, 2021.
Return on equity for the trailing four quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, was 13.0% and 8.4%, respectively. Operating return, excluding significant items, on equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and net operating loss carryforwards (6) for the trailing four quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, was 9.0% and 11.6%, respectively.

Management believes that an analysis of Net income applicable to common stock before: (i) net realized investment gains or losses from sales, impairments and the change in allowance for credit losses, net of related amortization and taxes; (ii) net change in market value of investments recognized in earnings, net of taxes; (iii) fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities, net of related amortization and taxes; (iv) fair value changes related to the agent deferred compensation plan, net of taxes; (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, net of taxes; (vi) changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and other tax items; and (viii) other non-operating items consisting primarily of earnings attributable to variable interest entities, net of taxes ("Net operating income," a non-GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the financial performance of the company, and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because the items excluded from net operating income can be affected by events that are unrelated to the company's underlying fundamentals. A reconciliation of Net operating income to Net income applicable to common stock is provided in the table on page 2. Additional information concerning this non-GAAP measure is included in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are available in the "Investors - SEC Filings" section of CNO's website, CNOinc.com.

Book value per diluted share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised and restricted stock and performance units were vested. The dilution from options, restricted shares and performance units is calculated using the treasury stock method. Under this method, we assume the proceeds from the exercise of the options (or the unrecognized compensation expense with respect to restricted stock and performance units) will be used to purchase shares of our common stock at the closing market price on the last day of the period. In addition, the calculation of this non-GAAP measure differs from the corresponding GAAP measure because accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has been excluded from the value of capital used to determine this measure. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful because it removes the volatility that arises from changes in the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of our investments.

(a)

Comprised of: (i) $5.3 million from legal and regulatory matters; and (ii) $2.5 million of transaction expenses related to the previously announced acquisition of Optavise. The legal and regulatory matters primarily consist of an increase to our liability for claims and interest pursuant to the Global Resolution Agreement, as we have now processed and verified most of the claims provided by the third party auditor allowing us to more accurately estimate the ultimate liability.
