“We remain diligently focused on pursuing long-term, sustainable and profitable growth across AIG, and our diversified businesses provide flexibility and strength to execute on our strategy,” said Brian Duperreault, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In the second quarter, we continued to take actions across General Insurance to establish a culture of underwriting excellence and added stellar talent.  Our efforts are taking hold and we remain committed to achieving an underwriting profit as we exit 2018.  Solid results in Life & Retirement reflect an ongoing strategy to leverage our broad product expertise and distribution strengths.”  Mr. Duperreault continued, “With the closing of the Validus acquisition in July, we have further enhanced our underwriting expertise and expanded our offerings.  We also took actions to efficiently manage our Legacy liabilities with the partial sale of DSA Re, providing a path towards a standalone platform for managing run-off business. Moving forward, we will continue to look for opportunities to grow AIG and create long-term shareholder value.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

SECOND QUARTER 2018 HIGHLIGHTS

 

General Insurance Results – General Insurance has continued to execute its strategy to improve core underwriting performance.  Second quarter adjusted pre-tax income of $568 million reflected lower net investment income, primarily driven by lower income from alternative investments. Underwriting results included catastrophe losses that were lower than expected and slightly favorable prior year loss reserve development.  The loss ratio included a high frequency of severe losses that totaled $293 million (4.5 pts) which is more than double the long-term average, resulting in a second quarter loss ratio of 65.7, and an accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, of 65.4.  Excluding the increase in severe losses, the second quarter accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, was in line with full year 2017 results. The second quarter expense ratio of 35.6 primarily reflected an increase in the North America acquisition ratio due to changes in Personal Insurance business mix towards lower loss ratio and higher commission businesses and an increase in general operating expenses related to strategic initiatives.

 

Life and Retirement Results – Life and Retirement produced solid results, reporting second quarter adjusted pre-tax income of $962 million. High levels of assets under administration in Individual Retirement and Group Retirement, due to strong equity market performance, drove growth in fee income. Growth of assets under management for Institutional Markets reflected the execution of opportunistic transactions over the last twelve months. Total net investment income increased due to higher invested assets, partially offset by lower alternative and other yield enhancement income.  Total Individual Retirement net flows improved, excluding Retail Mutual Funds. Adjusted pre-tax income benefited from net actuarial adjustments of $51 million in Life and Individual Retirement.

 

Legacy – Second quarter adjusted pre-tax income of $134 million, compared to $431 million in the prior-year quarter reflected lower net investment income and lower income from fair value option assets, as well as the sale of the Life Settlement portfolio in 2017. On August 1, 2018 AIG announced the sale of 19.9% of DSA Re, which positions DSA Re to be a platform to provide solutions for insurance liabilities globally.

 

Net Investment Income – Second quarter net investment income from our insurance companies, including the Legacy insurance portfolios, decreased 12% from the prior-year quarter to $3.1 billion. The decline was primarily driven by lower investment returns on alternative investments, primarily driven by less robust private equity and hedge fund performance compared to last year, and a decline in income from securities for which the fair value option was elected as a result of credit spread widening and rising interest rates. Net investment income from our insurance companies including the Legacy insurance portfolios totaled $6.5 billion for the first six months of 2018, and is on track with our $13 billion full year guidance previously provided.

 

Restructuring Charge – In the second quarter, AIG recorded pre-tax non-operating restructuring costs of $200 million, primarily related to efficiency initiatives.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Liquidity and Capital – As of June 30, 2018, AIG Parent liquidity stood at approximately $9.3 billion. In the second quarter, AIG Parent received approximately $1.8 billion of distributions from insurance subsidiaries in the form of cash and fixed maturity securities, including tax sharing payments.

 

On July 18, 2018 AIG completed its acquisition of Validus Holdings, Ltd. for approximately $5.5 billion in cash.

 

In the second quarter, AIG repurchased 6.5 million common shares for $348 million and warrants for $2 million. From July 1 through August 2, 2018 AIG repurchased $149 million of additional common shares and $1 million of additional warrants. As of August 2, 2018, approximately $1.5 billion remained under the share repurchase authorization.

 

Book Value per Common Share – As of June 30, 2018, book value per common share was $68.65 compared to $72.49 at December 31, 2017. Book value per common share excluding accumulated other comprehensive income and deferred tax assets (Adjusted book value per common share) increased 2.2% to $57.34 in the second quarter.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

All comparisons are against the second quarter of 2017, unless otherwise indicated. Refer to the AIG Second Quarter 2018 Financial Supplement, which is posted on AIG's website in the Investors section, for further information.

 

·Adjusted pre-tax income of $407 million included $160 million of severe losses and $107 million of catastrophe-related losses. Net favorable prior year loss reserve development of $54 million included $95 million of favorable prior year loss development from Commercial Lines which included the amortization of the deferred gain from the adverse development reinsurance coverage with National Indemnity Company, partially offset by $41 million of unfavorable prior year loss development in Personal Insurance primarily related to development from 2017 catastrophe losses. Net investment income decreased by $245 million primarily driven by lower alternative investment income.

 

·Net premiums written increased by 4%, largely due to lower ceded premiums driven by changes in the 2018 reinsurance programs and growth in the Travel business in Personal Insurance. Net premiums earned included a favorable adjustment of $115 million for multi-year policies related to earlier accident years.

 

·The decrease in the North America loss ratio was driven by lower catastrophe losses and favorable prior year loss reserve development. The accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, increased 7.0 points, reflecting the impact of higher severe losses (3.4 pts) and the impact of changes in our reinsurance program. Also, the second quarter of 2017 did not reflect the increased loss estimates which occurred in the second half of 2017.

 

·The increase in the expense ratio reflected a higher acquisition expense ratio driven by changes in Personal Insurance’s portfolio mix and an increase in general operating expenses related to strategic initiatives.

·Net premiums written increased 5% on a reported basis and slightly increased on a constant dollar basis. The increase in net premiums written was primarily driven by growth in our Accident & Health business in Asia Pacific and growth in our European Financial Lines business, partially offset by the impact of divested businesses.

 

·The second quarter loss ratio was 59.9. The accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, increased 5.2 points to 58.9, driven by higher severe losses (1.8 pts) compared to the prior-year quarter and higher attritional losses in Commercial Lines.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

·In Individual Retirement, adjusted pre-tax income reflected unfavorable actuarial adjustments to Variable Annuities of $47 million compared to favorable adjustments to immediate annuities in the prior-year quarter.  Fee income increased primarily from growth in assets under management.  Net investment income decreased due to lower alternative and other yield enhancement income.  Base portfolio income increased primarily due to growth in Index Annuities invested assets.  Base yields, excluding accretion and other investment income, declined consistent with expectations, while related base spreads increased slightly for Variable and Index Annuities and declined for Fixed Annuities.  Overall net flows reflected improvement from the prior-year quarter in Fixed Annuities and Index Annuities sales, which was more than offset by increases in Retail Mutual Funds outflows.

 

·In Group Retirement, fee income increased primarily from growth in assets under administration.  Base portfolio income increased primarily due to accretion and other investment income.  Base spreads, excluding accretion and other investment income, were in line with the prior-year quarter.  Group Retirement net flows reflect outflows due to higher surrenders, partially offset by increased deposits primarily from new group plan acquisitions.

 

·In Life Insurance, adjusted pre-tax income reflected favorable actuarial adjustments of $98 million and higher net investment income driven by growth in invested assets.  Mortality was within pricing expectations.

 

·In Institutional Markets, adjusted pre-tax income was driven by continued growth in the in-force business and higher net investment income.

COMMENT ON REGULATION G

 

Throughout this press release, including the financial highlights, AIG presents its financial condition and results of operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful and representative of its business results. Some of the measurements AIG uses are “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. GAAP is the acronym for “generally accepted accounting principles” in the United States. The non-GAAP financial measures AIG presents may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies. The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in accordance with Regulation G are included within the relevant tables or in the Second Quarter 2018 Financial Supplement available in the Investor Information section of AIG’s website, www.aig.com.

 

Book Value per Common Share, Excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) and Book Value per Common Share, Excluding AOCI and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) (Adjusted Book Value per Common Share) are used to show the amount of AIG’s net worth on a per-share basis. AIG believes these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. These measures also eliminate the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. AIG excludes deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in these book value per common share metrics. Book value per common share, excluding AOCI, is derived by dividing Total AIG Shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, by total common shares outstanding. Adjusted Book Value per Common Share is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA (Adjusted Shareholders’ Equity), by total common shares outstanding.

 

AIG Return on Equity – Adjusted After-tax Income Excluding AOCI and DTA (Adjusted Return on Equity) is used to show the rate of return on shareholders’ equity. AIG believes this measure is useful to investors because it eliminates items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. This measure also eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. AIG excludes deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in Adjusted Return on Equity. Adjusted Return on Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized adjusted after-tax income attributable to AIG by average Adjusted Shareholders’ Equity.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Core Adjusted Attributed Equity is an attribution of total AIG Adjusted Shareholders’ Equity to these segments based on AIG’s internal capital model, which incorporates the segments’ respective risk profiles. Adjusted attributed equity represents AIG’s best estimates based on current facts and circumstances and will change over time.

 

Core Return on Equity – Adjusted After-tax Income (Adjusted Return on Attributed Equity) is used to show the rate of return on Adjusted Attributed Equity. Adjusted Return on Attributed Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized Adjusted After-tax Income by Average Adjusted Attributed Equity.

 

Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to Core is derived by subtracting attributed interest expense and income tax expense from adjusted pre-tax income. Attributed debt and the related interest expense is calculated based on AIG’s internal capital model. Tax expense or benefit is calculated based on an internal attribution methodology that considers among other things the taxing jurisdiction in which the segments conduct business, as well as the deductibility of expenses in those jurisdictions.

 

Adjusted Revenues exclude Net realized capital gains (losses), income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes) and changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits (included in Net investment income for GAAP purposes). Adjusted revenues is a GAAP measure for AIG’s operating segments.

 

AIG uses the following operating performance measures because AIG believes they enhance the understanding of the underlying profitability of continuing operations and trends of AIG’s business segments. AIG believes they also allow for more meaningful comparisons with AIG’s insurance competitors. When AIG uses these measures, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided on a consolidated basis.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Adjusted Pre-tax Income (APTI) is derived by excluding the items set forth below from income from continuing operations before income tax. This definition is consistent across AIG’s segments. These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to AIG’s current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and measures that AIG believes to be common to the industry. APTI is a GAAP measure for AIG’s segments. Excluded items include the following:

 

•    changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits;

 

•    changes in benefit reserves and deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC), value of business acquired (VOBA), and sales inducement assets (SIA) related to net realized capital gains and losses;

 

•    loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt;

 

•    all net realized capital gains and losses except earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedging or for asset replication. Earned income on such economic hedges is reclassified from net realized capital gains and losses to specific APTI line items based on the economic risk being hedged (e.g. net investment income and interest credited to policyholder account balances);

 

•    income or loss from discontinued operations;

 

•    pension expense related to a one-time lump sum payment to former employees;

 

•    income and loss from divested businesses;

 

•    non-operating litigation reserves and settlements;

 

•    restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify AIG’s organization;

 

•    the portion of favorable or unfavorable prior year reserve development for which AIG has ceded the risk under retroactive reinsurance agreements and related changes in amortization of the deferred gain; and

 

•    net loss reserve discount benefit (charge).

 

Adjusted After-tax Income attributable to AIG (AATI) is derived by excluding the tax effected APTI adjustments described above and the following tax items from net income attributable to AIG:

 

deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges;
changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax items related to legacy matters having no relevance to AIG’s current businesses or operating performance; and
net tax charge related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act).

 

See page 15 for the reconciliation of Net income attributable to AIG to Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to AIG.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Ratios: AIG, along with most property and casualty insurance companies, uses the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned, the amount of losses and loss adjustment expenses (which for General Insurance excludes net loss reserve discount), and the amount of other underwriting expenses that would be incurred. A combined ratio of less than 100 indicates underwriting income and a combined ratio of over 100 indicates an underwriting loss. AIG’s ratios are calculated using the relevant segment information calculated under GAAP, and thus may not be comparable to similar ratios calculated for regulatory reporting purposes. The underwriting environment varies across countries and products, as does the degree of litigation activity, all of which affect such ratios. In addition, investment returns, local taxes, cost of capital, regulation, product type and competition can have an effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting income and associated ratios.

 

Accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted: both the accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted, exclude catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting. Natural and man-made catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events having a net impact on AIG in excess of $10 million each and also include certain man-made events, such as terrorism and civil disorders that meet the $10 million threshold. AIG believes the as adjusted ratios are meaningful measures of AIG’s underwriting results on an ongoing basis as they exclude catastrophes and the impact of reserve discounting which are outside of management’s control. AIG also excludes prior year development to provide transparency related to current accident year results.

 

Underwriting ratios are computed as follows:

a)Loss ratio = Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred ÷ Net premiums earned (NPE)
b)Acquisition ratio = Total acquisition expenses ÷ NPE
c)General operating expense ratio = General operating expenses ÷ NPE
d)Expense ratio = Acquisition ratio + General operating expense ratio
e)Combined ratio = Loss ratio + Expense ratio
f)Accident year loss ratio, as adjusted (AYLR) = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – CATs – PYD] ÷ [NPE +/(-) Reinstatement premiums (RIPs) related to catastrophes +/(-) RIPs related to prior year catastrophes + (Additional) returned premium related to PYD on loss sensitive business + Adjustment for ceded premiums under reinsurance contracts related to prior accident years]
g)Accident year combined ratio = AYLR + Expense ratio
h)Catastrophe losses (CATs) and reinstatement premiums = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – (CATs)] ÷ [NPE +/(-) RIPs related to catastrophes] – Loss ratio
i)Prior year development net of (additional) return premium related to PYD on loss sensitive business = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – Prior year loss reserve development unfavorable (favorable) (PYD), net of reinsurance] ÷ [NPE +/(-) RIPs related to prior year catastrophes + (Additional) returned premium related to PYD on loss sensitive business] – Loss ratio

 

Premiums and deposits: includes direct and assumed amounts received and earned on traditional life insurance policies, group benefit policies and life-contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life, investment-type annuity contracts, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) funding agreements and mutual funds.

 

Results from discontinued operations are excluded from all of these measures.

AIG is the marketing name for the worldwide property-casualty, life and retirement, and general insurance operations of American International Group, Inc. For additional information, please visit our website at www.aig.com. All products and services are written or provided by subsidiaries or affiliates of American International Group, Inc. Products or services may not be available in all countries, and coverage is subject to actual policy language. Non-insurance products and services may be provided by independent third parties. Certain property-casualty coverages may be provided by a surplus lines insurer. Surplus lines insurers do not generally participate in state guaranty funds, and insureds are therefore not protected by such funds.
