METLIFE ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2013 RESULTS

NEW YORK, May 1, 2013 – MetLife, Inc. (NYSE: MET) today reported the following results for the first quarter of 2013:

MetLife reported operating earnings* of $1.6 billion, or $1.48 per share, up 12% over the first quarter of 2012, reflecting growth in all three business regions. Operating earnings in the Americas grew 12%, Asia increased 11% (12% on a constant currency basis) and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) grew 21% (17% on a constant currency basis).

First quarter 2013 operating earnings included the following items:

 

  •  

further adjustments to the lapse updates related to variable annuities in the Americas’ Retail business, which benefited operating earnings by $29 million, or $0.03 per share

 

  •  

variable investment income above the company’s 2013 quarterly plan range by $22 million, or $0.02 per share, after tax and the impact of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC)

On a GAAP basis, MetLife reported first quarter 2013 net income of $956 million, or $0.87 per share, including $410 million, after tax, in net derivative losses. MetLife uses derivatives as part of its broader asset-liability management strategy to hedge certain risks, such as movements in interest rates and foreign currencies. This hedging activity often generates derivative gains or losses and creates fluctuations in net income because the risk being hedged may not have the same GAAP accounting treatment.

Premiums, fees & other revenues* were $11.8 billion, up 2% (4% on a constant currency basis) over the first quarter of 2012. Excluding pension closeout sales (which often fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter), total premiums, fees & other revenues grew 3%.

Book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI), was $47.37 per share, up 2% from the first quarter of 2012.

“MetLife had a very strong first quarter as all three of our business regions contributed to a 12% increase in operating earnings over the first quarter of 2012, and we generated an annualized operating return on equity of 12.7%,” said Steven A. Kandarian, chairman, president and chief executive officer of MetLife, Inc. “We continue to leverage the strength of our diverse, global businesses, and remain committed to delivering value for shareholders, as demonstrated by our previously announced common stock dividend increase.”

Information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release and the reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the Non-GAAP and Other Financial Disclosures discussion below, as well as in the tables that accompany this release and/or the First Quarter 2013 Financial Supplement, which is available on the Investor Relations section of www.metlife.com.

BUSINESS DISCUSSIONS

All comparisons of the results for the first quarter 2013 in the business discussions that follow are with the first quarter of 2012, unless otherwise noted. All comparisons on a constant currency basis are calculated using the average foreign currency exchange rates for the current period and are applied to the prior period.

THE AMERICAS

Total operating earnings for the Americas increased 12% to $1.3 billion, driven by the Retail business. Premiums, fees & other revenues for the Americas were $8.6 billion, up 4% primarily due to growth in Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits. Excluding pension closeouts, premiums, fees & other revenues for the Americas were up 5%.

Retail

Operating earnings for Retail were $626 million, up 33% due to higher net investment income, an increase in fees, further adjustments to the lapse updates related to variable annuities, and lower expenses. Premiums, fees & other revenues for Retail were $3.0 billion, relatively unchanged as an increase in fee income driven by higher equity markets as well as higher individual disability and property/casualty premiums were offset by lower lifetime income annuity premiums. First quarter 2013 variable annuity sales were $3.5 billion, down 29%.

 

2

Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits

Operating earnings for Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits were $230 million, down 5% as lower underwriting results in the group life business more than offset higher interest margins and favorable underwriting results in the dental business. Premiums, fees & other revenues for Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits were $4.2 billion, up 8% due to growth in the dental business as well as favorable persistency across the business.

Corporate Benefit Funding

Operating earnings for Corporate Benefit Funding were $299 million, relatively unchanged from $298 million. While the first quarter of 2013 benefitted from improved interest margins, growth over the prior year period was impacted by unusually strong underwriting results in the first quarter of 2012. Premiums, fees & other revenues for Corporate Benefit Funding were $605 million, down 3% as lower pension closeout sales more than offset higher institutional income annuity sales. Excluding pension closeouts, premiums, fees & other revenues were up 14%.

Latin America

Operating earnings for Latin America were $143 million, down 3% (2% on a constant currency basis) as lower net investment income more than offset business growth in several countries. Premiums, fees & other revenues in Latin America were $904 million, up 2% (3% on a constant currency basis). Total sales for the region increased 20%, driven by growth in Mexico and in direct marketing channels across the region.

ASIA

Operating earnings for Asia were $333 million, up 11% (12% on a constant currency basis) due to business growth, an increase in variable investment income and higher fee income driven by increases in policyholder surrenders for certain foreign currency fixed annuity products in Japan. Premiums, fees & other revenues in Asia were $2.5 billion, up 2% (12% on a constant currency basis) due to business growth in Korea and Australia as well as the aforementioned higher fee income. Total sales for the region declined 13% primarily due to the continued macro volatility in Japan, which more than offset growth in several other countries, including India.

EMEA

Operating earnings for EMEA were $87 million, up 21% (17% on a constant currency basis), reflecting business growth in several emerging markets; the benefit of a tax-related item; the benefit of a reserve adjustment in Greece; and continued expense discipline. EMEA premiums, fees & other revenues were $685 million, down 11% (12% on a constant currency basis) due to the previously announced exit from certain businesses in the U.K. Total sales for the region increased 13% driven by strong growth in emerging markets led by the Gulf, Russia and Turkey.

INVESTMENTS

Net investment income was $5.1 billion, up 1%. Variable investment income was $337 million ($217 million, after tax and DAC), compared with $239 million ($155 million, after tax and DAC) in the first quarter of 2012.

 

3

Investment portfolio net gains were $161 million, after tax, compared with net losses of $145 million, after tax, in the first quarter of 2012.

Increases in interest rates, changes in foreign currencies and the impact of MetLife’s credit spreads during the quarter contributed to derivative net losses of $493 million, after tax and other adjustments. Derivative net losses in the first quarter of 2012 were $1.3 billion, after tax and other adjustments. Derivative gains or losses related to MetLife’s credit spreads do not have an economic impact on the company.

CORPORATE & OTHER

Corporate & Other had an operating loss of $83 million, compared with an operating loss of $67 million in the first quarter of 2012.

  •  

Policyholder benefits and claims and policyholder dividends excludes: (i) changes in the policyholder dividend obligation related to NIGL and NDGL, (ii) inflation-indexed benefit adjustments associated with contracts backed by inflation-indexed investments and amounts associated with periodic crediting rate adjustments based on the total return of a contractually referenced pool of assets, (iii) benefits and hedging costs related to GMIBs (GMIB costs), and (iv) market value adjustments associated with surrenders or terminations of contracts (Market value adjustments);

  •  

Amortization of DAC and value of business acquired (VOBA) excludes amounts related to: (i) NIGL and NDGL, (ii) GMIB fees and GMIB costs and (iii) Market value adjustments;

MetLife believes the presentation of operating earnings and operating earnings available to common shareholders as MetLife measures it for management purposes enhances the understanding of the company’s performance by highlighting the results of operations and the underlying profitability drivers of the business.
