Full year net income totaled $623 million, or $9.21 per diluted share, compared with $617 million, or $9.04 per diluted share in 2021. Adjusted operating income for the full year totaled $977 million, or $14.43 per diluted share, compared with $77 million, or $1.13 per diluted share the year before. Net foreign currency fluctuations had an adverse effect of $0.15 per diluted share on net income and $0.53 per diluted share on adjusted operating income as compared with the prior year.
In the fourth quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $3.4 billion, an increase of 1.1% over 2021’s fourth quarter, with an adverse net foreign currency effect of $164 million. Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 6.0% in the quarter. For the full year, net premiums totaled $13.1 billion, increasing 4.5% in 2022. Full year premiums reflected an adverse foreign currency effect of $490 million. Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 8.4% for the full year.
Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, fourth quarter investment income decreased 2.8%, reflecting lower variable investment income. For the full year, investment income, excluding spread-based business, decreased 2.1%, reflecting lower variable investment income. Average investment yield decreased to 4.45% in the fourth quarter from 4.70% in the prior year period due to lower variable investment income this quarter. For the full year, the average investment yield decreased to 4.69%, from 4.99% in 2021, due to lower variable investment income.
The effective tax rate on pre-tax income was 23.9% for the quarter and 24.6% for the full year.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 17.5% on pre-tax adjusted operating income. The tax rate was below the expected range of 23% to 24% primarily due to adjustments for tax returns filed during the quarter and an increase in foreign tax credits. For the full year, the adjusted operating effective tax rate was 22.5%, in line with the expected range of 23% to 24%.
Anna Manning, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “It was a very successful year for RGA, and I view our fourth quarter performance as solid with many segments reporting strong results. Our Financial Solutions business continued to deliver very good results across regions and product lines, and the performance of our Asia traditional business was also very strong. In the U.S., Group and Individual Health businesses both performed well in the quarter. We continue to see good new business activity in our organic business and in the pipeline for in-force and other transactions.
“On the capital front, we deployed $80 million into in-force and other transactions, bringing the full year total to $430 million. Additionally, we repurchased $25 million of common shares, bringing the full year total to $75 million. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.2 billion. Based on favorable business conditions and RGA's global leadership position, we are optimistic about the future and expect to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called adjusted 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 adjusted 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, adjusted operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, tax reform and other items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. The definition of adjusted operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income.
Book value per share excluding the 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.
Adjusted operating income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average stockholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Similar to adjusted operating income, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations, they also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under RGA’s management incentive programs.
Reconciliations from GAAP net income, book value per share, net income per diluted share and average stockholders’ equity 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 “Financial Information” section.
