Item 2.02       Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On February 9, 2015, Primerica, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its results of operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
 
The information provided pursuant to this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1 in Item 9.01, is “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, and shall not be incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), except to the extent expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filings.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Specifically, the Company presents adjusted direct premiums, other ceded premiums, operating revenues, operating income before income taxes, net operating income, adjusted stockholders’ equity and diluted operating earnings per share.  Adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums are net of amounts ceded to affiliates of Citigroup Inc. under coinsurance transactions that were executed concurrent with our initial public offering (“IPO”) for all periods presented. Operating revenues, operating income before income taxes, net operating income and diluted operating earnings per share exclude the impact of realized investment gains and losses for all periods presented. Operating income before income taxes, net operating income, and diluted operating earnings per share also exclude (1) the expense in 2013 associated with our IPO-related equity awards, (2) the impact of charges recorded in 2013 for the settlement of claims made by certain Florida Retirement System (FRS) plan participants and (3) the compensation expense recorded in 2014 associated with the CEO transition agreements discussed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 2, 2015.  Adjusted stockholders’ equity excludes the impact of net unrealized gains and losses on invested assets for all periods presented.
 
We exclude these items because they are considered unusual and not indicative of our ongoing operations.  Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of similar measures used by other companies.  Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance.  Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods as they are expected to be reflective of our core ongoing business.  These measures have limitations, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
 
Reconciliations of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures are included as attachments to the press release which has been posted in the “Investor Relations” section of our website at http://investors.primerica.com.

PRIMERICA REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER 2014 RESULTS

Diluted EPS of $0.84 and diluted operating EPS of $0.91

14.3% net income return on stockholders’ equity and 16.4% net operating income return on adjusted stockholders’ equity (ROAE)

14% increase in Investment and Savings Products (ISP) sales in the fourth quarter led to record ISP sales of $5.68 billion in 2014

8% growth in life insurance policies issued

Life insurance sales force increased to 98,358

Duluth, GA, February 9, 2015 – Primerica, Inc. (NYSE: PRI) announced today financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.  Total revenues were $345.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 and net income was $45.5 million, or $0.84 per diluted share.  For the full year 2014, total revenues were $1.34 billion and net income was $181.4 million, or $3.29 per diluted share.

Net operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, in 2014 excludes the impact of expenses recognized in the fourth quarter of 2014 related to the Co-CEO transition agreements described in our Form 8-K dated January 2, 2015 as well as realized investment gains and losses.  A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures is included at the end of this release.

In the fourth quarter, operating revenues increased by 9% to $346.5 million and net operating income increased by 6% to $49.0 million compared with $317.3 million and $46.2 million, respectively, in the year ago period.  Diluted net operating income per share increased 9% to $0.91 compared with fourth quarter 2013 and ROAE increased to 16.4%.  Solid operating results in the fourth quarter were primarily driven by growth in Term Life net premiums and strong Investment and Savings Products sales and asset performance.  Net investment income was flat versus the prior year period due to $3.0 million of income from called securities in the fourth quarter of 2014 which offset the impact of declining portfolio yields and capital deployment actions.  Year-over-year insurance and other operating expenses generally increased with normal business growth and development.

Throughout 2014, growth in Term Life net premiums and ISP performance drove our strong results.  Operating revenues and net operating income in 2014 grew 9% year-over-year to $1.34 billion and $182.8 million, respectively. Other notable items include modest growth in insurance and other operating expenses from business growth and increased employee incentive compensation, which mainly reflects the accelerated retirement vesting recognized in the third quarter of 2014.  On a year-over-year basis, these items were partially offset by higher legal fees and expenses incurred in 2013.  Net investment income continued to decline year-over-year primarily due to the lower portfolio yields and capital deployment throughout the year.  The $147.9 million of common stock repurchases during the year, equating to 5.5% of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2013, helped drive a 14% increase in diluted operating EPS to $3.31 for the year and a 60 basis points increase in ROAE to 15.3% compared with 2013.

Rick Williams, Chairman of the Board and Co-Chief Executive Officer said, “We are proud of the momentum generated in the business in the fourth quarter and throughout 2014. Our full year 2014 results were marked by solid performance across segments including 11% growth in Term Life net premiums, 9% growth in ISP sales and an 8% increase in ending client asset values, while the size of the life insurance licensed sales force grew 3%.  John Addison and I believe the positive 2014 results make this the perfect time for a leadership transition and are confident that Glenn Williams will take the company to the next level.”

Glenn Williams, who has been appointed Chief Executive Officer as of April 1, 2015, said, “I’m grateful for John and Rick’s leadership over the past 15 years and look forward to capitalizing on the positive momentum.  I will work to build on their successful strategy by leveraging Primerica’s strengths to increase the size of the sales force, drive earnings growth and deploy capital to deliver long-term value for all of our stakeholders.”

Distribution Results

The size of our life-licensed sales force grew to 98,358 at December 31, 2014 from 95,566 at December 31, 2013 and 97,966 at September 30, 2014.  In the fourth quarter, recruiting of new representatives increased 13% to 43,054 compared to the year ago quarter driven by improved incentive programs and messaging.  New life insurance licenses of 8,510 were in line with the fourth quarter a year ago as new life insurance licenses typically lag recruiting.  Sequentially, recruiting of new representatives declined from 49,055 and new life insurance licenses were down from 8,793 compared with the third quarter of 2014 reflecting seasonally lower activity in the fourth quarter.  The percentage of license non-renewals and terminations in relation to the size of the sales force was slightly higher compared to the third quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013.

Term life insurance policies issued in the fourth quarter increased 8% compared with the prior year quarter and increased 3% from the third quarter of 2014,   partially driven by strong recruiting and sales force initiatives in the fourth quarter.  Productivity in the fourth quarter of .19X policies per life licensed representative per month increased from .18X in the fourth quarter a year ago and remained consistent with the third quarter of 2014.  The average annualized term premium per issued policy was consistent with the fourth quarter of 2013.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, Investment and Savings Products sales were $1.46 billion, up 14% compared with the prior year period, resulting in 2014 having the highest ever ISP sales in a single year of $5.68 billion. Expansion of our variable annuity products led to the fourth quarter being one of the largest variable annuity sales quarters in the history of the company.  On a sequential basis, ISP sales increased 6% compared with the third quarter of 2014.  Client asset values increased to an all-time high of $48.66 billion, up 8% at December 31, 2014 relative to a year ago, and increased 3% from the end of the third quarter, primarily reflecting market performance.

The results of operations from our short-term statutory disability insurance business (DBL) prior to its disposal in Q1 2014 were reported in our Corporate and Other Distributed Products segment.  As such, we have reclassified revenues, insurance expenses, and income before income taxes of $9,018, $1,485, and $822, respectively, in Q4 2013 from our Corporate and Other Distributed Products segment into discontinued operations.

Term Life Insurance.  In the fourth quarter of 2014, Term Life operating revenues increased 10% to $198.4 million and operating income before income taxes increased 6% to $52.8 million compared with the same period a year ago.  An 11% increase in net premiums drove revenue growth over the prior year period.  Allocated net investment income was positively impacted by income from called securities and growth in required assets, partially offset by lower yield on invested assets compared with the fourth quarter of 2013.  While incurred claims returned to historical levels, benefits and claims increased at a faster rate than net premiums primarily reflecting improved persistency and revised reserve assumptions on certain supplemental policy benefits in the fourth quarter.  DAC amortization grew faster than net premiums due to more commissions being deferred in recent years, partially offset by improved persistency.  Results also reflect higher growth-related expenses year-over-year.

Sequentially, operating income before income taxes increased 15% versus the third quarter of 2014 reflecting continued growth in net premiums and higher net investment income due to income from called securities, partially offset by seasonally lower persistency and the revised reserves assumptions on certain supplemental policy benefits in the fourth quarter.  Sequential results also benefitted from the return to the historical levels of incurred claims and the prior period recognition of accelerated compensation expense for equity awards with retirement vesting provisions.

Investment and Savings Products.  In the fourth quarter, operating revenues increased 9% to $131.4 million and operating income before income taxes increased 10% to $39.0 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2013. Results were driven by 14% growth in ISP sales and 10% growth in average client asset values.  Sales-based revenues and expenses grew in line with revenue generating sales.  Year-over-year asset-based revenues increased 7%, slightly lagging growth in average client asset values, due to lower Canadian segregated funds sales and client asset values, which generate higher than average asset-based revenues.  Asset-based commission expense growth of 15% outpaced asset-based revenue growth as Canadian segregated fund compensation expense is generally recognized over time as DAC amortization.  Lower legal fees and expenses were offset by increases in general operating expenses year-over-year.

Sequentially, operating income before income taxes increased 6%, primarily reflecting a 6% increase in product sales, lower DAC amortization in the fourth quarter and the accelerated recognition of compensation expense for equity awards with retirement vesting provisions in the third quarter of 2014.

Corporate and Other Distributed Products.  Operating revenues of $16.7 million were consistent year-over-year and operating losses before income taxes increased by $2.8 million compared with the fourth quarter of 2013. During the quarter, allocated net investment income declined primarily due to growth in Term Life required assets, lower yield on invested assets and capital deployment.  The increase in other operating expenses in the fourth quarter was primarily related to a write-off of developed software as new sales force technology is phased in.  In the fourth quarter of 2013, our New York subsidiary benefitted from lower claims experience on the non-term life insurance products.

Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2014 of 34.2% was relatively consistent with the fourth quarter of 2013.  Sequentially, the effective income tax rate decreased from 35.0% in the third quarter related to the recognition of certain tax benefits due to statute of limitations that expire each year in the fourth quarter.

Capital and Liquidity

Following a $167 million ordinary dividend payment by Primerica Life Insurance Company (PLIC) to Primerica, Inc. in the fourth quarter, PLIC’s statutory risk-based capital (RBC) ratio was estimated to be approximately 400% as of December 31, 2014.
 
 
5

 
 
The ordinary dividend payment facilitated the repurchase of $82.4 million or 1.6 million shares of Primerica common stock in the fourth quarter for a total of $147.9 million or 3.0 million shares repurchased in 2014.

Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program for 2015 under which we expect to repurchase up to $150 million of common stock.  The share repurchases may be made from time to time through open market transactions, block trades and/or privately negotiated transactions and are subject to market conditions, as well as corporate, regulatory, and other considerations.  This share repurchase program may be discontinued at any time by the Board of Directors and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the program.

As of December 31, 2014, our investments and cash increased to $2.26 billion compared with $2.23 billion as of September 30, 2014, primarily due to the increase in the held-to-maturity asset held as part of a redundant reserve financing transaction.  Our invested asset portfolio had a net unrealized gain of $101.3 million (net of unrealized losses of $13.3 million) at December 31, 2014, a decline from $111.9 million at September 30, 2014.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We also present adjusted direct premiums, other ceded premiums, operating revenues, operating income before income taxes, net operating income, adjusted stockholders’ equity, and diluted operating earnings per share. Adjusted direct premiums and other ceded premiums are net of amounts ceded to affiliates of Citigroup Inc. under coinsurance transactions that were executed concurrent with our initial public offering (“IPO”) for all periods presented. Operating revenues, operating income before income taxes, net operating income, and diluted operating earnings per share exclude the impact of realized investment gains and losses for all periods presented. Operating income before income taxes, net operating income, and diluted operating earnings per share also exclude (1) the expense in 2013 associated with our IPO-related equity awards, (2) the impact of charges recorded in 2013 for the settlement of claims made by certain Florida Retirement System (FRS) plan participants and (3) the compensation expense recorded in 2014 associated with the CEO transition agreements discussed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 2, 2015. Adjusted stockholders' equity excludes the impact of net unrealized gains and losses on invested assets for all periods presented. We exclude these items because they are considered unusual and not indicative of our ongoing operations. Our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the definitions of similar measures used by other companies. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our financial performance. Furthermore, management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may provide users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results of prior periods as they are expected to be reflective of our core ongoing business. These measures have limitations, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures are attached to this release.

Preface
PRIMERICA, INC.
Financial Supplement
 
FOURTH QUARTER 2014
 

This document is a financial supplement to our fourth quarter 2014 earnings release.  It is designed to enable comprehensive analysis of our ongoing business using the same core metrics that our management utilizes in assessing our business and making strategic and operational decisions.  Throughout this document we provide financial information that is derived from our U.S. GAAP financial statements and adjusted for three different purposes, as follows:

  
Operating adjustments exclude the expense associated with equity awards granted in connection with our initial public offering (“IPO”), the impact of realized investment gains and losses, the impact of entering into Co-CEOs transition agreements as described in our Form 8-K dated January 2, 2015, and the impact of certain charges related to claims made by certain Florida Retirement System (FRS) plan participants as described in our Form 8-K dated January 16, 2014 and subsequent filings.

  
Adjusted when used in describing stockholders’ equity refers to the removal of the impact of net unrealized gains and losses on invested assets.

  
Citi reinsurance transaction adjustments relate to transactions in the first quarter of 2010, where we reinsured between 80% and 90% of our business that was in-force at year-end 2009 to various affiliates of Citigroup Inc. (“Citi”) that were executed concurrent with our IPO.

Management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures in managing the business and believes they present relevant and meaningful analytical metrics for evaluating the ongoing business.  Reconciliations of non-GAAP to GAAP financial measures are included in this financial supplement.

Discontinued Operations
In January 2014, National Benefit Life Insurance Company, our New York insurance company, sold the assets and liabilities of its short-term statutory disability benefit insurance business ("DBL") to AmTrust North America, Inc., which assumed all liabilities for DBL insurance. The results of operations for DBL were previously reported in our Corporate and Other Distributed Products segment. As a result, beginning in the first quarter of 2014, the historical results of DBL have been eliminated from our Corporate and Other Distributed Products segment and are now reported in discontinued operations in Primerica’s consolidated statements of income for all periods presented.

Certain items throughout this supplement may not add due to rounding and as such, may not agree to other public reporting of the respective item.  Certain items throughout this supplement are noted as ‘na’ to indicate not applicable.  Certain variances are noted as ‘nm’ to indicate not meaningful.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-period amounts to conform to current-period reporting classifications. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or total stockholders’ equity.

(1)
Asset value outflows - include (a) redemptions of assets, (b) sales charges on the inflow sales figures, and (c) the net flow of money market funds sold and redeemed on the company's recordkeeping platform.  The redemptions of assets must be estimated for approximately 4% of account values as these figures are not readily available.  Actual redemptions as a percentage of account values for similar known account values are used to estimate the unknown redemption values.
(2)
Change in market value, net - market value fluctuations net of fees and expenses
(3)
Fee generating accounts - mutual fund accounts for which we receive recording keeping and/or custodial fees
(4)
Sales-based net revenue - commission and fee revenue less commissions paid to the sales force based on product sales activity
(5)
Asset-based net revenue - commission and fee revenue less commissions paid to the sales force earned based on product account values including amortization of deferred acquisition costs for segregated funds
