American Equity Reports Second Quarter 2015 Results
WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (July 29, 2015) - American Equity Investment Life Holding Company (NYSE: AEL), a leading issuer of fixed index annuities, today reported second quarter 2015 net income of $82.8 million, or $1.05 per diluted common share, compared to a second quarter 2014 net income of $36.7 million, or $0.46 per diluted common share.
Non-GAAP operating income1 for the second quarter of 2015 increased 32% to $50.9 million, or $0.64 per diluted common share, compared to second quarter 2014 non-GAAP operating income1 of $38.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted common share.
Highlights for the second quarter of 2015 include:
| |
▪ | Annuity sales (before coinsurance) were up 73% to $1.80 billion compared to second quarter 2014 annuity sales of $1.04 billion. |
| |
▪ | Investment spread was 2.84% compared to 2.77% for the first quarter of 2015 and 2.70% for the second quarter of 2014. |
| |
▪ | Estimated risk-based capital (RBC) ratio of 349% at June 30, 2015 compared to 372% at December 31, 2014 remained above A. M. Best’s rating threshold. |
| |
▪ | Book value per share (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income) was $19.72 at June 30, 2015 compared to $18.52 at December 31, 2014. |
| |
1 | In addition to net income, the Company has consistently utilized operating income and operating income per common share - assuming dilution, non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the life insurance industry, as economic measures to evaluate its financial performance. See accompanying tables for reconciliations of net income to operating income and descriptions of reconciling items. See Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a more complete discussion of the reconciling items and their impact on net income for the periods presented. Because these items fluctuate from period to period in a manner unrelated to core operations, the Company believes measures excluding their impact are useful in analyzing operating trends. The Company believes the combined presentation and evaluation of operating income together with net income, provides information that may enhance an investor’s understanding of its underlying results and profitability. |
PRODUCTION UP 73% ON MARKET SHARE GAINS
Second quarter sales of $1.8 billion were up 73% from the prior year second quarter and 37% from first quarter 2015. Commenting on sales results, John Matovina, Chief Executive Officer and President, said: "In early March, the competitive landscape in the fixed index annuity marketplace improved significantly for us with the withdrawal of a competitor's guaranteed income product. Because that product offered one of the highest levels of guaranteed income among fixed index annuities, it had substantial market share ranking it in the top three best-sellers in each of the last three years. The withdrawal of this product enabled us to capture market share from many of the annuity producers looking for competitive guaranteed income solutions that formerly sold the competitor's product. In addition, another substantial competitor scaled back their sales appetite giving us another opportunity to increase our sales. We are encouraged that our attractive product offerings that meet retiree needs for safety, liquidity and guaranteed income are driving robust sales increases broadly across our network of distribution partners."
The Company noted that while growth in sales was substantial, the ramp was steady and manageable. Monthly sales increased in each month of 2015 and June 2015 was the best month in the Company's history. The pending business count also increased steadily month by month with an average daily pending count of almost 5,500 cases in June 2015 compared to 4,150 cases in March 2015.
Turning to the outlook for sales, Matovina added: "We are optimistic we will have a record year for sales but the first half surge may settle down somewhat. Several competitors recently increased their rates to make their product offerings more competitive and we are making adjustments to the payout factors in our lifetime income benefit rider beginning tomorrow. Some factors will be lowered while others will be raised. Our guaranteed lifetime income rider will still be competitive and we expect producers to continue to favor us in sales situations where guaranteed lifetime income is important to the consumer's fixed index annuity purchase. In addition, our rider remains attractive because our lifetime income is fully guaranteed while some competitors share the financial risk with the policyholder by guaranteeing only a portion of the income."
SPREAD WIDENS ON HIGHER BOND FEE AND PREPAYMENT INCOME
American Equity’s investment spread widened to 2.84% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to 2.77% for the first quarter of 2015 as a result of an increase in average yield on invested assets and a decrease in the cost of money.
Average yield on invested assets increased by 4 basis points to 4.78% for the second quarter of 2015 from 4.74% for the first quarter of 2015. The increase was attributable to fee income from bond transactions and prepayment income which together added 0.07% to the second quarter 2015 average yield on invested assets compared to 0.01% from such items in the first quarter of 2015.
Adjusting for the effect of non-trendable items, the average yield on invested assets for the quarter fell by 2 basis points from the prior quarter as new premiums and portfolio cash flows were invested at rates below the portfolio rate. The average yield on fixed income securities purchased and commercial mortgage loans funded in the second quarter of 2015 was 3.73% compared to 3.84% in the first quarter of 2015 and average yields ranging from 4.14% - 4.39% in the prior year quarters.
The aggregate cost of money for annuity liabilities declined by 3 basis points to 1.94% in the second quarter of 2015 compared to 1.97% in the first quarter of 2015. This decrease reflected continued reductions in crediting rates. The benefit from over hedging the obligations for index linked interest was 0.07% in both the second and first quarters of 2015.
Commenting on investment spread, John Matovina, said: “We continued to effectively manage a challenging interest rate environment, holding our spread essentially flat after adjusting for non-trendable items. Yields obtained on new investments were 12 basis points lower than the first quarter while our cost of money benefited from reductions in both new money and renewal rates. We expect market conditions to continue to pressure our spread, but still have room to lower rates further and could decrease our cost of money by approximately 0.57% with further reductions in renewal rates to guaranteed minimums should the investment yields currently available to us persist. Most importantly, we intend to maintain our risk discipline in managing our investment portfolio and not chase higher yields in assets and asset classes that do not fit our risk profile.”

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to net income, the Company has consistently utilized operating income and operating income per common share - assuming dilution, non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the life insurance industry, as economic measures to evaluate its financial performance. Operating income equals net income adjusted to eliminate the impact of net realized gains and losses on investments including net OTTI losses recognized in operations, fair value changes in derivatives and embedded derivatives, loss on extinguishment of debt and changes in litigation reserves. Because these items fluctuate from quarter to quarter in a manner unrelated to core operations, the Company believes measures excluding their impact are useful in analyzing operating trends. The Company believes the combined presentation and evaluation of operating income together with net income provides information that may enhance an investor’s understanding of our underlying results and profitability.

(a) | Q3 2014 includes expense from the revision of assumptions used in determining reserves held for living income benefit riders consistent with unlocking for deferred policy acquisition costs and deferred sales inducements. The impact increased interest sensitive and index product benefits by $12.4 million and decreased net income and earnings per common share - assuming dilution by $8.0 million and $0.10 per share, respectively. |
| |
(b) | Q3 2014 includes benefit from unlocking which reduced amortization of deferred sales inducements and deferred policy acquisition costs by $12.6 million and $35.5 million, respectively, and increased net income and earnings per common share- assuming dilution by $31.0 million and $0.39 per share, respectively. |
| |
(c) | Q2 2014 includes a benefit of $62.6 million from the revision of assumptions used in determining fixed index annuity embedded derivatives, which after related adjustments to deferred sales inducements and deferred policy acquisition costs and income taxes, increased net income and earnings per common share - assuming dilution by $14.8 million and $0.19 per share, respectively. |
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to net income, we have consistently utilized operating income and operating income per common share - assuming dilution, non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the life insurance industry, as economic measures to evaluate our financial performance. Operating income equals net income adjusted to eliminate the impact of net realized gains and losses on investments including net OTTI losses recognized in operations, fair value changes in derivatives and embedded derivatives, loss on extinguishment of debt and changes in litigation reserves. Because these items fluctuate from quarter to quarter in a manner unrelated to core operations, we believe measures excluding their impact are useful in analyzing operating trends. We believe the combined presentation and evaluation of operating income together with net income provides information that may enhance an investor’s understanding of our underlying results and profitability.

| |
(a) | Total capitalization, total stockholders’ equity and book value per share excluding AOCI, non-GAAP financial measures, are based on stockholders’ equity excluding the effect of AOCI. Since AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes in the fair value of available for sale investments, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information. |
| |
(b) | Common shares outstanding include shares held by the NMO Deferred Compensation Trust: 2015 - 230,012 shares; 2014 - 543,120 shares |
| |
(c) | Book value per share including and excluding AOCI is calculated as total stockholders’ equity and total stockholders’ equity excluding AOCI divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. |
| |
(d) | Debt-to-capital ratios are computed using total capitalization excluding AOCI. Adjusted debt includes notes payable and the portion of the total subordinated debentures payable to subsidiary trusts outstanding (qualifying trust preferred securities) that exceeds 15% of total capitalization excluding AOCI. |
