DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Primerica, Inc. (NYSE: PRI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Total revenues of $532.0 million increased 9% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Net income of $93.6 million increased 8%, while earnings per diluted share of $2.24 increased 13% compared to the same quarter last year. ROE was 23.0% for the current quarter.
Adjusted operating revenues were $530.9 million, increasing 9% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted net operating income of $92.8 million increased 6%, while diluted adjusted operating earnings per share of $2.22 increased 10% compared to the same quarter last year. ROAE was 23.7% during the fourth quarter of 2019.
Financial results during the quarter reflect strong performance in both the Term Life and Investment and Savings Products (ISP) segments. The Company’s Term Life segment saw revenues grow 9% year-over-year due principally to a 10% increase in adjusted direct premiums. Pre-tax income in the Term Life segment increased 14%, reflecting favorable year-over-year trends in persistency. The Company’s ISP segment saw revenues increase 11% year-over-year due to robust sales and growth in client asset values. Pre-tax income in the ISP segment increased 16% year-over-year due in part to lower Canadian segregated fund DAC amortization. During the quarter, the Company repurchased $44 million of common stock for a total of $225 million during the year and in line with our goal.
Results for the full year ended December 31, 2019 also reflect strong financial performance in both of the Company’s core segments with Term Life and ISP income before taxes growing 14% and 10%, respectively. Total revenues of $2.1 billion increased 8% year-over-year and set a new annual record for the Company. Net income of $366.4 million and earnings per diluted share of $8.62 increased 13% and 18%, respectively, also representing new records.
“During 2019, we set new records in investment product sales and client asset values. The solid financial results in both our Term Life and ISP segments drove record revenues and net income and we are beginning to see momentum in distribution,” said Glenn Williams, Chief Executive Officer. “As we begin 2020, we are well positioned to deliver strong value to our clients, our field and our stockholders.”

Life Insurance Licensed Sales Force
At the end of the year, the Company had 130,522 independent life-licensed representatives. The total representative count remained largely unchanged year-over-year as a 3% annual decline in the number of individuals recruited was partly offset by an increase in licensing during the second half of 2019.
Term Life Insurance
Revenues of $319.0 million during the fourth quarter increased 9% compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, driven by 10% growth in adjusted direct premiums. Persistency continues to trend favorably year-over-year but reflected seasonal weakness during the fourth quarter. Overall, benefits and claims were in line with historical experience during the quarter, while insurance and other operating expenses increased largely due to growth in the business. Pre-tax income of $82.0 million increased 14% year-over-year.
New life insurance policies issued during the fourth quarter was 71,469, down 1% compared to the same quarter in 2018. Productivity for the quarter was 0.18 policies per life insurance licensed representative per month, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2018.
Investment and Savings Products
Revenues of $182.7 million during the fourth quarter increased 11% compared to the same quarter in 2018 driven by an increase in sales and higher average client asset values. Total product sales during the current quarter were $2.0 billion, a 14% increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 due to higher sales of mutual funds and variable annuities. Average client asset values were $68.2 billion, increasing 12% year-over-year, reflecting the recovery from the market correction during the fourth quarter of 2018 and solid market performance in 2019. Net client inflows were $387 million, or 8% higher than the fourth quarter of 2018.
Pre-tax income of $53.0 million during the current quarter increased 16% year-over-year and benefited from a $2 million reduction in Canadian segregated fund DAC amortization due to both updated assumptions based on emerging redemption experience and favorable market performance. Sales and asset-based commission expenses were generally consistent with the associated revenues while insurance and other operating expenses increased with higher allocated technology spending and employee related costs.
Corporate and Other Distributed Products
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company recorded an adjusted operating loss before taxes of $13.9 million compared to an adjusted operating loss before taxes of $8.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase in pre-tax loss reflects growth of $2.0 million in insurance and other operating expenses, including higher technology costs, and a $1.7 million charge to benefits and claims to write-off amounts ceded on a closed block of business to a reinsurance counterparty ordered into receivership.
Net Investment Income
Consolidated net investment income during the quarter increased approximately $0.7 million due to an increase in the size of the invested asset portfolio and higher earnings on the deposit asset underlying the 10% coinsurance agreement. These were partly offset by lower investment yields on reinvestment of maturing assets. On a segment basis, we continue to see growth in investment income allocated from the Corporate and Other Distributed Products segment to the Term Life segment as the block of term business grows.
Taxes
In the fourth quarter of 2019, the effective income tax rate was 23.4%, in line with our full-year rate of 23.2%. The effective tax rate was lower during the fourth quarter of 2018 due to an adjustment during the period related to the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) component of the 2017 Tax Reform.
Capital
During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 347,832 shares of common stock for $44 million, bringing the year-to-date total to $225 million.
The Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of its common stock through June 30, 2021 and approved an 18% increase in stockholder dividends to $0.40 per share, payable on March 16, 2020, to stockholders of record on February 24, 2020. The Company expects to repurchase $250 million of its common stock during 2020.
Primerica has a strong balance sheet and continues to be well-capitalized to meet future needs. Primerica Life Insurance Company’s statutory risk-based capital (RBC) ratio was estimated to be about 440% as of December 31, 2019.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the Company presents adjusted direct premiums, other ceded premiums, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income, adjusted stockholders’ equity and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share. Adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums are net of amounts ceded under coinsurance transactions that were executed concurrent with our initial public offering (the “IPO coinsurance transactions”) for all periods presented. We exclude amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions in measuring adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums to present meaningful comparisons of the actual premiums economically maintained by the Company. Amounts ceded under the IPO coinsurance transactions will continue to decline over time as policies terminate within this block of business. Adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income before income taxes, adjusted net operating income and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share exclude the impact of realized investment gains (losses) and fair value mark-to-market (“MTM”) investment adjustments, including other-than-temporary impairments (“OTTI”), for all periods presented. We exclude realized investment gains (losses) and MTM investment adjustments in measuring these non-GAAP financial measures to eliminate period-over-period fluctuations that may obscure comparisons of operating results due to items such as the timing of recognizing gains (losses) and market pricing variations prior to an invested asset's maturity or sale that are not directly associated with the Company's insurance operations. In 2018, we excluded from adjusted net operating income and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share the one-time transition impact of adjustments made to finalize the provisional amounts recognized from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 in order to present meaningful and useful period-over-period comparisons that could be distorted by the historically infrequent tax law change. Adjusted stockholders' equity excludes the impact of net unrealized investment gains (losses) recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for all periods presented. We exclude unrealized investment gains (losses) in measuring adjusted stockholders' equity as unrealized gains (losses) from the Company's available-for-sale securities are largely caused by market movements in interest rates and credit spreads that do not necessarily correlate with the cash flows we will ultimately realize when an available-for-sale security matures or is sold.
Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of similar measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods as they are expected to be reflective of the core ongoing business. These measures have limitations, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are attached to this release.
