CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Unum Group (NYSE: UNM) today reported net income of $645.7 million ($3.46 per diluted common share) for the third quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $202.0 million ($1.02 per diluted common share) for the third quarter of 2023.
Included in net income for the third quarter of 2024 are the after-tax amortization of the cost of reinsurance of $8.2 million ($0.04 per diluted common share), the after-tax impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance of $4.8 million ($0.03 per diluted common share), an after-tax net reserve decrease related to assumption updates of $282.6 million ($1.51 per diluted common share), an after-tax loss resulting from a legal settlement of $12.1 million ($0.06 per diluted common share), and a net after-tax investment loss on the Company’s investment portfolio of $9.8 million ($0.05 per diluted common share). Included in net income for the third quarter of 2023 are the after-tax amortization of the cost of reinsurance of $8.7 million ($0.04 per diluted common share), the after-tax impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance of $7.3 million ($0.04 per diluted common share), an after-tax net reserve increase related to assumption updates of $139.3 million ($0.71 per diluted common share), and a net after-tax investment loss on the Company’s investment portfolio of $24.4 million ($0.13 per diluted common share). Excluding the items above, after-tax adjusted operating income was $398.0 million ($2.13 per diluted common share) in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $381.7 million ($1.94 per diluted common share) in the third quarter of 2023.
“Our third quarter results demonstrated the broad-based solid performance that we have shown throughout 2024. We continued to execute on our strategy, resulting in growth in premiums and operating income, with particularly strong performance within Group Life,” said Richard P. McKenney, president and chief executive officer. “As we enter the fourth quarter, we are well positioned. The market environment remains favorable, and we continue to invest in the growth of our business while returning capital to our shareholders. We remain confident in our ability to achieve our full year 2024 earnings outlook.”
RESULTS BY SEGMENT
We measure and analyze our segment performance on the basis of "adjusted operating income" or "adjusted operating loss", which differ from income before income tax as presented in our consolidated statements of income due to the exclusion of investment gains and losses, amortization of cost of reinsurance, the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance, reserve assumption updates, and certain other items as specified in the reconciliations below. Investment gains or losses primarily include realized investment gains or losses, expected investment credit losses, and gains or losses on derivatives. Reserve assumption updates may result in increases or decreases to earnings. These performance measures are in accordance with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, but they should not be viewed as a substitute for income before income tax, net income or net loss.
Unum US Segment
Unum US reported adjusted operating income of $363.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 1.5 percent from $357.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, which excludes the reserve assumption updates during each period. Premium income increased 4.0 percent to $1,723.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $1,657.7 million in the third quarter of 2023. Net investment income declined 3.1 percent to $161.0 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to the $166.2 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Within the Unum US operating segment, the group disability line of business reported a 7.9 percent decrease in adjusted operating income to $156.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $170.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, which excludes the reserve decrease of $90.0 million and $121.0 million related to the assumption updates during the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Premium income for the group disability line of business increased 2.4 percent to $793.4 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $775.0 million in the third quarter of 2023, driven by favorable persistency and prior period sales. Net investment income decreased 6.5 percent to $78.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $84.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, due to a decrease in the level of invested assets, partially offset by an increase in the yield on invested assets. Excluding the reserve assumption updates, the benefit ratio for the third quarter of 2024 was 59.1 percent, compared to 57.5 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due to higher incidence in our long-term disability and short-term disability product lines and higher average claim size in the long-term disability product line, partially offset by favorable recoveries in the long-term disability product line. Group long-term disability sales were $24.4 million in the third quarter of 2024, a decrease of 33.3 percent from $36.6 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Premium income for this line of business increased 6.0 percent to $494.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to the $467.1 million in the third quarter of 2023 due primarily to favorable persistency and prior period sales. Net investment income decreased 6.8 percent to $22.1 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $23.7 million in the third quarter of 2023 due to a decrease in the level of invested assets, partially offset by an increase in the yield on invested assets. Excluding the reserve assumption update, the benefit ratio in the third quarter of 2024 was 65.0 percent, compared to 73.3 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to favorable incidence in the group life product line. Group life and accidental death and dismemberment sales were $26.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 5.2 percent from $25.2 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Premium income for the supplemental and voluntary line of business increased 4.7 percent to $435.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $415.6 million in the third quarter of 2023, due to favorable persistency in the voluntary benefits and dental and vision product lines and higher prior period sales in the voluntary benefits and individual disability product lines. Net investment income increased 3.3 percent to $60.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $58.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to an increase in the yield on invested assets. The benefit ratio for the voluntary benefits product line, which excludes the reserve increase of $12.2 million and the reserve decrease of $10.4 million related to the assumption updates during the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 45.8 percent in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 39.1 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due to less favorable experience in the critical illness and life product lines. The benefit ratio for the individual disability product line, which excludes the reserve decrease of $52.8 million and the reserve increase of $2.6 million during the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively, was 42.8 percent for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 45.4 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to favorable recoveries, partially offset by higher claim size. The benefit ratio for the dental and vision product line was 74.6 percent for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 67.4 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to higher claims incidence and higher average claim size.

Sales in the individual disability product line increased 14.8 percent to $29.4 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Unum International Segment

Premium income was £158.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 11.7 percent from £142.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to in-force block growth. Net investment income was £21.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 8.7 percent from £19.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher yield on invested assets, partially offset by lower investment income from inflation-indexed linked bonds. The benefit ratio, excluding the reserve assumption updates, was 69.5 percent in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 67.4 percent in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to higher incidence in the group long-term disability and group life product lines, partially offset by favorable incidence in the supplemental product line and favorable recoveries in the group long-term disability product line. Sales increased 26.9 percent to £23.1 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to £18.2 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Premium income increased 2.5 percent to $441.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $431.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, due to higher prior period sales and generally stable persistency. Net investment income was $39.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, which was generally consistent with the $39.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. The benefit ratio, excluding the reserve assumption updates, was 47.6 percent in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 49.1 percent in the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to favorable benefit experience in the cancer and critical illness and life product lines. Sales decreased 0.3 percent to $120.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $121.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. Persistency in the Colonial Life segment was 78.0 percent for the first nine months of 2024, compared to 77.9 percent for the first nine months of 2023.
Closed Block Segment
The Closed Block segment reported adjusted operating income of $34.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, which excludes the amortization of cost of reinsurance of $10.4 million and the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance of $6.0 million related to the Closed Block individual disability reinsurance transaction as well as the net reserve decrease related to the assumption updates of $175.3 million, compared to $34.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, which excludes the amortization of cost of reinsurance of $11.1 million and the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance of $9.2 million related to the Closed Block individual disability reinsurance transaction and the net reserve increase related to the assumption updates of $368.8 million. Premium income for this segment is largely driven by our long-term care product line, and in the third quarter of 2024, premium income for long-term care was generally consistent with the same period of 2023. Net investment income increased 3.4 percent to $284.3 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $274.9 million in the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to an increase in the level of invested assets.
Policy benefits including remeasurement loss (gain), excluding the impacts of non-contemporaneous reinsurance and the reserve assumption updates, for the Closed Block segment were generally consistent during the third quarter of 2024 relative to the same period of 2023. The net premium ratio for the long-term care product line increased to 94.5 percent at September 30, 2024 from 93.4 percent at September 30, 2023, due primarily to policyholder terminations and the assumption updates in the third quarter of 2024. Compared to June 30, 2024, the net premium ratio increased from 93.7 percent to 94.5 percent due to the assumption updates in the third quarter of 2024. Overall claim experience for long-term care continued to improve sequentially, as expected.
Corporate Segment
The Corporate segment reported an adjusted operating loss of $49.4 million in the third quarter of 2024, which excludes the loss on legal settlement of $15.3 million, compared to an adjusted operating loss of $41.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to a decrease in net investment income, driven by increased allocations to our lines of business.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We analyze our performance using non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe the following non-GAAP financial measures are better performance measures and better indicators of the revenue and profitability and underlying trends in our business:
- After-tax adjusted operating income or loss, which excludes investment gains or losses, amortization of the cost of reinsurance, non-contemporaneous reinsurance, reserve assumption updates, as well as certain other items, as applicable;
- Book value per common share, which is calculated excluding AOCI.
Investment gains or losses primarily include realized investment gains or losses, expected investment credit losses, and gains or losses on derivatives. Investment gains or losses and unrealized gains or losses on securities depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding the underlying business of our Company. We believe after-tax adjusted operating income is a better performance measure and better indicator of the profitability and underlying trends in our business. Book value per common share excluding AOCI provides a more comparable and consistent view of our results, as AOCI tends to fluctuate depending on market conditions and general economic trends.
Cash flow assumptions used to calculate our liability for future policy benefits are reviewed at least annually and updated, as needed, with the resulting impact reflected in net income. While the effects of these assumption updates are recorded in the reporting period in which the review is completed, these updates reflect experience emergence and changes to expectations spanning multiple periods. We believe that by excluding the impact of reserve assumption updates we are providing a more comparable and consistent view of our quarterly results.
We exited a substantial portion of our Closed Block individual disability product line through the two phases of the reinsurance transaction that were executed in December 2020 and March 2021. As a result, we exclude the amortization of the cost of reinsurance that we recognized upon the exit of the business related to the policies on claim status as well as the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance that resulted from the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2018-12 (ASU 2018-12). Due to the execution of the second phase of the reinsurance transaction occurring after January 1, 2021, the transition date of ASU 2018-12, in accordance with the provisions of the ASU related to non-contemporaneous reinsurance, we were required to establish the ceded reserves using an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument as of the reinsurance transaction date in March 2021, which resulted in higher ceded reserves compared to that which was reported historically. However, the direct reserves for the block reinsured in the second phase were calculated using the original discount rate utilized as of the transition date. Both the direct and ceded reserves are then remeasured at each reporting period using a current discount rate reflective of an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument, with the changes recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). While the total equity impact is neutral, the different original discount rates utilized for direct and ceded reserves result in disproportionate earnings impacts. The impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance will fluctuate depending on the magnitude of reserve changes during the period. We believe that the exclusion of these items provides a better view of our results from our ongoing businesses.
We may at other times exclude certain other items from our discussion of financial ratios and metrics in order to enhance the understanding and comparability of our operational performance and the underlying fundamentals, but this exclusion is not an indication that similar items may not recur and does not replace net income or net loss as a measure of our overall profitability.
