LINCOLN FINANCIAL GROUP REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

____________________________________

v

Net loss available to common stockholders of $(5.37) per diluted share includes unfavorable impacts from the new accounting for market risk benefits (“MRBs”) as a result of the recent adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2018-12 (“LDTI”)

v

Adjusted operating income available to common stockholders of $1.52 per diluted share

v

Executing on our objectives to rebuild capital and increase ongoing free cash flow

v

Delivered robust level of sales while shifting to a more capital-efficient product mix

v

High-quality and diversified investment portfolio is well-positioned



Radnor, PA, May 9, 2023 –  Lincoln Financial Group (NYSE: LNC) today reported a net loss available to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2023 of $(909) million, or $(5.37) per diluted share, compared to net income available to common stockholders in the first quarter of 2022 of $1,481 million, or $8.39 per diluted share. The net loss available to common stockholders this quarter was primarily driven by unfavorable impacts from a portion of the MRB and hedge instrument fair value changes.  A favorable portion of the MRB fair value change flowed through AOCI, approximately offsetting the impact to total stockholders’ equity.



First quarter adjusted income from operations available to common stockholders was $260 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, compared to adjusted income from operations available to common stockholders of $273 million, or $1.55 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022. 



“We are continuing to take swift action and I am pleased with the substantial progress we have made to rebuild capital and increase our ongoing pace of capital generation,” said Ellen Cooper, president and CEO of Lincoln Financial Group. “We are delivering profitable new-business growth with a more capital-efficient product mix in 2023 across our retail and workplace solutions businesses, while maintaining a robust level of sales.  Last week’s announcement of our $28 billion block reinsurance transaction with Fortitude Re is an important step to further advance our enterprise strategic objectives and continue bolstering the balance sheet.  While we are experiencing earnings headwinds in 2023, as we continue to execute, I remain confident that the earnings power of the business will begin to re-emerge more materially in 2024 and beyond.”

First Quarter 2023 – Segment Results

Annuities

Annuities reported income from operations of $274 million, down 14% compared to the prior-year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower fee income driven by unfavorable capital markets, partially offset by a favorable tax adjustment in the current quarter.



Total annuity deposits of $3.2 billion were up 17% from the prior-year quarter as sales growth in fixed annuities and indexed variable annuities more than offset a decline in sales of traditional variable annuities. Net outflows were $331 million in the quarter compared to net outflows of $525 million in the prior-year quarter.



Average account balances for the quarter of $146 billion were down 9% from the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by unfavorable capital markets. Variable annuities with living benefits represented 46% of total annuity account balances, a decrease of four percentage points compared to the prior-year quarter.



Life Insurance

Life Insurance reported a loss from operations of $(13) million compared to income of $23 million in the prior-year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by the run-rate impact from the company’s third quarter 2022 annual review of DAC and reserve assumptions and lower alternative investment income, prepayment income and base spreads, partially offset by an improvement in COVID-19 mortality experience. 



Total Life sales for the quarter were $130 million compared to $155 million in the prior-year quarter, driven primarily by the shift to a more capital-efficient product mix with lower sales of Variable Universal Life, Executive Benefits and Term products, partially offset by increased sales of Indexed Universal Life products.



Average Life Insurance in-force of $1.1 trillion increased 9% over the prior-year quarter. For the quarter, average account balances were $49 billion, down 4% compared to the prior-year quarter.



Group Protection

Group Protection reported income from operations of $71 million in the quarter compared to a loss from operations of $46 million in the prior-year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by improved disability underwriting results and lower COVID-19 mortality claims.



The total loss ratio was 75% in the current quarter compared to 89% in the prior-year quarter with the decrease driven primarily by better disability incidence and resolutions and lower life claims. The operating margin expanded 950 basis points from the prior-year quarter to 5.6%.




 

Group Protection sales for the quarter were $128 million, up 22% compared to the prior-year quarter. Supplemental Health products represented 24% of total Group Protection sales, compared to 9% in the prior-year quarter.



Insurance premiums of $1.3 billion in the quarter were up 7% compared to the prior-year quarter.



Retirement Plan Services

Retirement Plan Services reported income from operations of $43 million, down 26% compared to the prior-year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by lower prepayment income and higher expenses, partly offset by the earnings impact related to positive net flows and higher base spreads.



Total deposits for the quarter of $3.2 billion were down 12% compared to the prior-year quarter. Net flows totaled $535 million for the quarter, contributing to trailing-twelve months’ net flows of $2.3 billion.



Average account balances for the quarter of $91 billion were down 5% from the prior-year quarter primarily driven by lower equity markets. 



Other Operations

Other Operations reported a loss from operations of $87 million versus a loss of $78 million in the prior-year quarter.



First Quarter Highlights - Realized Gains and Losses / Impacts to Net Income

Realized gains/losses and other impacts to net income (after-tax) in the quarter were primarily driven by:

·

A $506 million loss associated with unfavorable impacts from a portion of the MRB fair value change, as a result of the adoption of LDTI. A favorable portion of the MRB fair value change flowed through AOCI more than offsetting the impact to total stockholders’ equity.

·

A $377 million loss associated with changes in the fair value of Guaranteed Living Benefits and Guaranteed Death Benefits hedge instruments, net of hedge allowance.

·

$49 million of net realized credit losses.



Unrealized Gains and Losses

The company reported a net unrealized loss of $(9.6) billion, pre-tax, on its available-for-sale securities at March 31, 2023. This compares to a net unrealized gain of $3.1 billion, pre-tax, at March 31, 2022, with the year-over-year decrease primarily driven by higher treasury rates.


 

Share Count

The quarter’s average diluted share count of 170.5 million was down 3% from the first quarter of 2022, the result of repurchasing 2.8 million shares of stock at a cost of $150 million since March 31, 2022.



Book Value

Versus the prior-year period, as of March 31, 2023, book value per share, including AOCI, decreased 59% to $33.89, book value per share, excluding AOCI, decreased 12% to $56.04 and adjusted book value per share decreased 13% to $66.05.



The tables attached to this release define and reconcile the non-GAAP measures adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE, adjusted income from operations ROE, BVPS, excluding AOCI, and adjusted BVPS to net income (loss), net income (loss) available to common stockholders, net income (loss) ROE and BVPS, including AOCI, calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Explanatory Notes on Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management believes that adjusted income from operations (or adjusted operating income), adjusted income from operations available to common stockholders, adjusted income from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE, adjusted income from operations ROE, adjusted operating revenues, and adjusted income from operations per diluted share available to common stockholders better explain the results of the company’s ongoing businesses in a manner that allows for a better understanding of the underlying trends in the company’s current business because the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business segments, and, in most instances, decisions regarding these items do not necessarily relate to the operations of the individual segments. Management also believes that using book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) , and adjusted book value per share enables investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is primarily attributable to our business operations. Book value per share, excluding AOCI is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates. Adjusted book value per share is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in equity markets and interest rates.



For the historical periods, reconciliations of non-GAAP measures used in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure may be included in this Appendix to the press release and/or are included in the Statistical Reports for the corresponding periods contained in the Earnings section of the Investor Relations page on our website: www.lfg.com/investor.  



Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures Used in this Press Release



Adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE and adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE (in each case including and excluding the effect of average goodwill), BVPS, excluding AOCI, and adjusted BVPS are financial measures we use to evaluate and assess our results. Adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE, adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE, BVPS, excluding AOCI, and adjusted BVPS, as used in the press release, are non-GAAP financial measures and do not replace GAAP net income (loss), net income (loss) available to common stockholders, revenues, net income (loss) ROE and BVPS, including AOCI, the most directly comparable GAAP measures.



Adjusted Income (Loss) from Operations



Adjusted income (loss) from operations is GAAP net income (loss) excluding the after-tax effects of the following items, as applicable:

·

Changes in market risk benefits (“MRBs”), including gains and losses and benefit payments (“MRB-related impacts”);

·

Investment and reinsurance-related realized gain (loss):

o

Changes in the carrying value of mortgage loans on real estate attributable to current expected credit losses (“CECL”) (“changes in CECL reserve for mortgage loans on real estate”);

o

Changes in the carrying value of reinsurance-related assets attributable to CECL (“changes in CECL reserve for reinsurance-related assets”);

o

Changes in the carrying value of fixed maturity AFS securities attributable to the estimation of credit losses (“changes in the credit loss allowance for fixed maturity AFS securities”); and

o

Changes in the fair value of investments, including trading securities, equity securities, certain derivatives, and mortgage loans on real estate electing the fair value option, and of embedded derivatives within certain reinsurance arrangements, as well as sales or disposals of investments (“changes in investments and reinsurance-related embedded derivatives”);

·

Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments we hold to hedge GLB and GDB riders, net of fee income allocated to support the cost of hedging them (“changes in fair value of GLB and GDB hedge instruments, net of hedge allowance”);

·

Changes in reserves resulting from benefit ratio unlocking on variable universal life insurance products with secondary guarantees (“benefit ratio unlocking”);

·

Income (loss) from the initial adoption of new accounting standards, regulations and policy changes;

·

Income (loss) from reserve changes, net of related amortization, on business sold through reinsurance;

·

Losses from the impairment of intangible assets and gains (losses) on other non-financial assets; and

Adjusted Income (Loss) from Operations Available to Common Stockholders



Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders is defined as after-tax adjusted income (loss) from operations less preferred stock dividends and the adjustment for deferred units of LNC stock in our deferred compensation plans.




 

Adjusted Operating Revenues



Adjusted operating revenues represent GAAP revenues excluding the pre-tax effects of the following items, as applicable:



·

Investment and reinsurance-related realized gain (loss);

·

Amortization of deferred gains arising from reserve changes on business sold through reinsurance.



Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations Available to Common Stockholders, Excluding AOCI and Preferred Stock ROE



Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE measures how efficiently we generate profits from the resources provided by our net assets.

·

It is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders by average stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock. 

·

Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in interest rates. 

·

Management evaluates ROE by both including and excluding the effect of average goodwill.



Adjusted Income (Loss) from Operations ROE



Adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE is calculated based upon a non-GAAP financial measure.

·

It is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders by adjusted average stockholders’ equity. 

·

Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in equity markets and interest rates. 

·

Management evaluates ROE by both including and excluding the effect of average goodwill.



Book Value Per Share, Excluding AOCI



Book value per share, excluding AOCI, is calculated based upon a non-GAAP financial measure.

It is calculated by dividing (a) stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock by (b) common shares outstanding.

We provide book value per share, excluding AOCI, to enable investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is primarily attributable to our business operations.

Management believes book value per share, excluding AOCI, is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates.

Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted book value per share is calculated based upon a non-GAAP financial measure.

·

It is calculated by dividing (a) stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, preferred stock and MRB-related impacts by (b) common shares outstanding.

·

We provide adjusted book value per share to enable investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is primarily attributable to our business operations.

·

Management believes adjusted book value per share is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements that are unpredictable that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in equity markets and interest rates.

·

Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.





Definition of Notable Items



Notable items are items which, in management’s view, do not reflect the company’s normal, ongoing operations.

·

We believe highlighting notable items included in adjusted income (loss) from operations enables investors to better understand the fundamental trends in its results of operations and financial condition.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS – CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE



Certain statements made in this press release and in other written or oral statements made by Lincoln or on Lincoln’s behalf are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”).  A forward-looking statement is a statement that is not a historical fact and, without limitation, includes any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements.  Forward-looking statements may contain words like: “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “shall,” “will” and other words or phrases with similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance.  In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, trends in Lincoln’s businesses, prospective services or products, future performance or financial results and the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings.  Lincoln claims the protection afforded by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by the PSLRA. 



Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including: 



·

Weak general economic and business conditions that may affect demand for our products, account balances, investment results, guaranteed benefit liabilities, premium levels and claims experience; 

·

Adverse global capital and credit market conditions that may affect our ability to raise capital, if necessary, and may cause us to realize impairments on investments and certain intangible assets, including goodwill and the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, which may reduce future earnings and/or affect our financial condition and ability to raise additional capital or refinance existing debt as it matures; 

·

The inability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to the holding company in sufficient amounts, which could harm the holding company’s ability to meet its obligations;

·

Legislative, regulatory or tax changes, both domestic and foreign, that affect: the cost of, or demand for, our subsidiaries’ products; the required amount of reserves and/or surplus; our ability to conduct business and our captive reinsurance arrangements as well as restrictions on the payment of revenue sharing and 12b-1 distribution fees;

·

The impact of U.S. federal tax reform legislation on our business, earnings and capital;

·

The impact of regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Department of Labor or other federal or state regulators or self-regulatory organizations relating to the standard of care owed by investment advisers and/or broker-dealers that could affect our distribution model;    

·

The impact of new and emerging privacy regulations that may lead to increased compliance costs and reputation risk;

·

Increasing scrutiny and evolving expectations and regulations regarding ESG matters that may adversely affect our reputation and our investment portfolio;

·

Actions taken by reinsurers to raise rates on in-force business;

·

Declines in or sustained low interest rates causing a reduction in investment income, the interest margins of our businesses and demand for our products; 

·

Rapidly increasing interest rates causing policyholders to surrender life insurance and annuity policies, thereby causing realized investment losses;

·

The impact of the implementation of the provisions of the European Market Infrastructure Regulation relating to the regulation of derivatives transactions;

·

The initiation of legal or regulatory proceedings against us, and the outcome of any legal or regulatory proceedings, such as:  adverse actions related to present or past business practices common in businesses in which we compete; adverse decisions in significant actions including, but not limited to, actions brought by federal and state authorities and class action cases; new decisions that result in changes in law; and unexpected trial court rulings;

·

A decline or continued volatility in the equity markets causing a reduction in the sales of our subsidiaries’ products; a reduction of asset-based fees that our subsidiaries charge on various investment and insurance products; and an increase in liabilities related to guaranteed benefit riders, which are accounted for as market risk benefits, of our subsidiaries’ variable annuity products;

·

Ineffectiveness of our risk management policies and procedures, including our various hedging strategies; 

·

A deviation in actual experience regarding future policyholder behavior, mortality, morbidity, interest rates or equity market returns from the assumptions used in pricing our subsidiaries’ products and in establishing related insurance reserves, which may reduce future earnings; 

·

Changes in accounting principles that may affect our consolidated financial statements;

·

Lowering of one or more of our debt ratings issued by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and the adverse effect such action may have on our ability to raise capital and on our liquidity and financial condition;

·

Lowering of one or more of the insurer financial strength ratings of our insurance subsidiaries and the adverse effect such action may have on the premium writings, policy retention, profitability of our insurance subsidiaries and liquidity;

·

Significant credit, accounting, fraud, corporate governance or other issues that may adversely affect the value of certain financial assets, as well as counterparties to which we are exposed to credit risk, requiring that we realize losses on financial assets;

·

Interruption in telecommunication, information technology or other operational systems or failure to safeguard the confidentiality or privacy of sensitive data on such systems, including from cyberattacks or other breaches of our data security systems;

·

The effect of acquisitions and divestitures, restructurings, product withdrawals and other unusual items;

·

The inability to realize or sustain the benefits we expect from, greater than expected investments in, and the potential impact of efforts related to, our strategic initiatives, including the Spark Initiative; 

·

The adequacy and collectability of reinsurance that we have obtained;


 

·

Pandemics, acts of terrorism, war or other man-made and natural catastrophes that may adversely impact liabilities for policyholder claims, affect our businesses and increase the cost and availability of reinsurance;

·

Competitive conditions, including pricing pressures, new product offerings and the emergence of new competitors, that may affect the level of premiums and fees that our subsidiaries can charge for their products;

·

The unknown effect on our subsidiaries’ businesses resulting from evolving market preferences and the changing demographics of our client base; and

·

The unanticipated loss of key management, financial planners or wholesalers.



The risks and uncertainties included here are not exhaustive. Our most recent Form 10-K, as well as other reports that we file with the SEC, include additional factors that could affect our businesses and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a rapidly changing and competitive environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors.



Further, it is not possible to assess the effect of all risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.  Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.  In addition, Lincoln disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date of this press release.    



The reporting of Risk-Based Capital (“RBC”) measures is not intended for the purpose of ranking any insurance company or for use in connection with any marketing, advertising or promotional activities.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

 

 

 

 



Non-GAAP measures do not replace the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and we have included detailed reconciliations herein beginning on page 24.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations

 



Adjusted income (loss) from operations is GAAP net income excluding the after-tax effects of the following items, as applicable:

 



• Changes in market risk benefits (“MRBs”), including gains and losses and benefit payments (“MRB-related impacts”);

 



• Investment and reinsurance-related realized gain (loss):

 



▪ Changes in the carrying value of mortgage loans on real estate attributable to current expected credit losses (“CECL”) (“changes in CECL reserve for mortgage loans on real estate”);

 



▪ Changes in the carrying value of reinsurance-related assets attributable to CECL (“changes in CECL reserve for reinsurance-related assets”);

 



▪ Changes in the carrying value of fixed maturity AFS securities attributable to the estimation of credit losses (“changes in the credit loss allowance for fixed maturity AFS securities”); and

 



▪ Changes in the fair value of investments, including trading securities, equity securities, certain derivatives, and mortgage loans on real estate electing the fair value option, and of

 



embedded derivatives within certain reinsurance arrangements, as well as sales or disposals of investments (“changes in investments and reinsurance-related embedded derivatives”);

 



• Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments we hold to hedge GLB and GDB, net of fee income allocated to support the cost of hedging them (“changes in fair value of GLB and GDB

 



hedge instruments, net of hedge allowance”);

 



• Changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities of our indexed annuity and indexed universal life insurance contracts and the associated index options we hold to hedge them, including

 



collateral expense associated with hedge programs (“indexed product net derivative results”);

 



• Changes in reserves resulting from benefit ratio unlocking on variable universal life insurance products with secondary guarantees (“benefit ratio unlocking”);

 



• Income (loss) from the initial adoption of new accounting standards, regulations and policy changes;

 



• Income (loss) from reserve changes, net of related amortization, on business sold through reinsurance;

 



• Transaction and integration costs related to mergers and acquisitions including the acquisition or divestiture, through reinsurance or other means, of businesses or blocks of business;

 



• Gains (losses) on modification or early extinguishment of debt;

 



• Losses from the impairment of intangible assets and gains (losses) on other non-financial assets; and

 



• Income (loss) from discontinued operations.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders is defined as after-tax adjusted income (loss) from operations less preferred stock dividends and the adjustment for deferred

 



units of LNC stock in our deferred compensation plans.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Operating Revenues

 



Adjusted operating revenues represent GAAP revenues excluding the pre-tax effects of the following items, as applicable:

 



• Investment and reinsurance-related realized gain (loss);

 



• Changes in fair value of GLB and GDB hedge instruments, net of hedge allowance;

 



• Indexed product net derivative results;

 



• Revenue adjustments from the initial adoption of new accounting standards; and

 



• Amortization of deferred gains arising from reserve changes on business sold through reinsurance.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Management believes that the non-GAAP performance measures discussed above explain the results of our ongoing businesses in a manner that allows for a better understanding of the underlying trends

 



in our current business as the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business segments, and, in many instances,

 



decisions regarding these items do not necessarily relate to the operations of the individual segments.  In addition, we believe that our definitions of adjusted operating revenues and adjusted income (loss)

 



from operations provide investors with more valuable measures of our performance as they better reveal trends in our business.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures, Continued

 



Stockholders’ Equity, Excluding AOCI and Preferred Stock

 



Stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI is stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock.  Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates market movements that are

 



unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in interest rates.  Stockholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Stockholders’ Equity

 



For presented periods prior to January 1, 2023, adjusted stockholders’ equity is stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, preferred stock and MRB-related impacts. For periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023,

 



adjusted stockholders’ equity is stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, preferred stock, MRB-related impacts and GLB and GDB hedged instruments gains (losses), to align to updates made to our variable

 



annuity hedge program effective January 1, 2023. Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly

 



from period to period, primarily related to changes in equity markets and interest rates. Stockholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Book Value per Share, Excluding AOCI

 



Book value per share, excluding AOCI, is calculated by dividing stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock, by common shares outstanding. We provide book value per share, excluding AOCI, to

 



enable investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. Management believes book value per share, excluding AOCI, is useful to investors because it

 



eliminates the effect of items that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP

 



measure.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Book Value per Share

 



Adjusted book value per share is calculated by dividing stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, preferred stock and MRB-related impacts, by common shares outstanding. We provide adjusted book value per share

 



to enable investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. Management believes adjusted book value per share is useful to investors because it eliminates

 



the effect of items that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in equity markets and interest rates.  Stockholders’ equity is the most directly comparable

 



GAAP measure.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations Available to Common Stockholders, Excluding AOCI and Preferred Stock ROE

 



Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available

 



to common stockholders by average stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI  and preferred stock.  Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements

 



on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in interest rates.  Net income (loss) ROE is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations ROE

 



Adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders by adjusted average stockholders’ equity. 

 



Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily

 



related to changes in equity markets and interest rates.  Net income (loss) ROE is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Management believes that the non-GAAP measures discussed above allow for a better understanding of the underlying trends in our current business as the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily

 



indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business.

 



 

 



Computations

 



• The quarterly financial information for the current year may not sum to the corresponding year-to-date amount as both are rounded to millions.

 



• The financial ratios reported herein are calculated using whole dollars instead of dollars rounded to millions.

 



• We exclude deferred units of LNC stock that are antidilutive from our diluted earnings per share calculation.  In addition, for any period where a net loss or adjusted loss from operations is experienced, shares

 



  used in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares, as the use of diluted shares would result in a lower loss per share.

 



• Pre-tax net margin is calculated by dividing adjusted income (loss) from operations before taxes by net revenue, which is defined as total adjusted operating revenues less interest credited.

Definitions

 



Holding company available liquidity consists of cash and invested cash, excluding cash held as collateral, and certain short-term investments that can be readily converted into cash, net of commercial paper

 



outstanding.

 



Return on equity (“ROE”) measures how efficiently we generate profits from the resources provided by our net assets. See adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE and adjusted income (loss) from

 



operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE metrics on page 1b for further information on how these metrics are calculated. Management evaluates consolidated

 



ROE by both including and excluding the effect of average goodwill.

(1) In periods where a net loss or adjusted loss from operations is presented, basic shares are used in the diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS calculations, as the use of diluted shares

 



would result in a lower loss per share.  Due to reporting adjusted income from operations per common share on a different share basis than net loss per common share, we have

 



included an adjustment to reconcile the two metrics.

EX-99.3 4 lnc-20230509xex99_3.htm EX-99.3 1Q23 - Presentation

This document may not be accurate after its date, and LNC does not undertake to update or keep it accurate after such date.Al CopersinoHead of Investor Relations203-257-4493Albert.Copersino@LFG.com1Q23 Investment SupplementMay 9, 2023 Forward looking statements –cautionary languageCertain statements made in this presentation and in other written or oral statements made by Lincoln or on Lincoln’s behalf are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”).


 

A forward-looking statement is a statement that is not a historical fact and, without limitation, includes any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or achievements. Forward-looking statements may contain words like: “anticipate,”“believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “shall,” “will” and other words or phrases with similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, trends in Lincoln’s businesses, prospective services or products, future performance or financial results and the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings. Lincoln claims the protection afforded by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by the PSLRA.Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including: •Weak general economic and business conditions that may affect demand for our products, account balances, investment results, guaranteed benefit liabilities, premium levels and claims experience; •Adverse global capital and credit market conditions that may affect our ability to raise capital, if necessary, and may causeusto realize impairments on investments and certain intangible assets, including goodwill and the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, which may reduce future earnings and/or affect our financial condition and ability to raise additional capital or refinance existing debt as it matures; •The inability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to the holding company in sufficient amounts, which could harm the holdingcompany’s ability to meet its obligations;•Legislative, regulatory or tax changes, both domestic and foreign, that affect: the cost of, or demand for, our subsidiaries’products; the required amount of reserves and/or surplus; our ability to conduct business and our captive reinsurance arrangements as well as restrictions on the payment of revenue sharing and 12b-1 distribution fees;•The impact of U.S.


 

federal tax reform legislation on our business, earnings and capital; •The impact of regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Department of Labor or other federalorstate regulators or self-regulatory organizations relating to the standard of care owed by investment advisers and/or broker-dealers that could affect our distribution model; •The impact of new and emerging privacy regulations that may lead to increased compliance costs and reputation risk;•Increasing scrutiny and evolving expectations and regulations regarding ESG matters that may adversely affect our reputation andour investment portfolio;•Actions taken by reinsurers to raise rates on in-force business;•Declines in or sustained low interest rates causing a reduction in investment income, the interest margins of our businesses anddemand for our products; •Rapidly increasing interest rates causing policyholders to surrender life insurance and annuity policies, thereby causing realized investment losses;•The impact of the implementation of the provisions of the European Market Infrastructure Regulation relating to the regulation of derivatives transactions;•The initiation of legal or regulatory proceedings against us, and the outcome of any legal or regulatory proceedings, such as: adverse actions related to present or past business practices common in businesses in which we compete; adverse decisions in significant actions including, but not limited to, actions brought byfederal and state authorities and class action cases; new decisions that result in changes in law; and unexpected trial court rulings; Forward looking statements –cautionary language (contd.)•A decline or continued volatility in the equity markets causing a reduction in the sales of our subsidiaries’ products; a reduction of asset-based fees that our subsidiaries charge on various investment and insurance products; and an increase in liabilities related to guaranteed benefit riders, which are accounted for as market risk benefits, of our subsidiaries’ variable annuity products;•Ineffectiveness of our risk management policies and procedures, including our various hedging strategies; •A deviation in actual experience regarding future policyholder behavior, mortality, morbidity, interest rates or equity market returns from the assumptions used in pricing our subsidiaries’ products and in establishing related insurance reserves, which may reduce future earnings; •Changes in accounting principles that may affect our consolidated financial statements;•Lowering of one or more of our debt ratings issued by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and the adverse effect such action may have on our ability to raise capital and on our liquidity and financial condition;•Lowering of one or more of the insurer financial strength ratings of our insurance subsidiaries and the adverse effect such action may have on the premium writings, policy retention, profitability of our insurance subsidiaries and liquidity;•Significant credit, accounting, fraud, corporate governance or other issues that may adversely affect the value of certain financial assets, as well as counterparties to which we are exposed to credit risk, requiring that we realize losses on financial assets;•Interruption in telecommunication, information technology or other operational systems or failure to safeguard the confidentiality or privacy of sensitive data on such systems, including from cyberattacks or other breaches of our data security systems;•The effect of acquisitions and divestitures, restructurings, product withdrawals and other unusual items;•The inability to realize or sustain the benefits we expect from, greater than expected investments in, and the potential impact of efforts related to, our strategic initiatives, including the Spark Initiative; •The adequacy and collectability of reinsurance that we have obtained;•Pandemics, acts of terrorism, war or other man-made and natural catastrophes that may adversely impact liabilities for policyholder claims, affect our businesses and increase the cost and availability of reinsurance;•Competitive conditions, including pricing pressures, new product offerings and the emergence of new competitors, that may affectthe level of premiums and fees that our subsidiaries can charge for their products;•The unknown effect on our subsidiaries’ businesses resulting from evolving market preferences and the changing demographics of our client base; and•The unanticipated loss of key management, financial planners or wholesalers.The risks and uncertainties included here are not exhaustive. Our most recent Form 10-K, as well as other reports that we file with the SEC, include additional factors that could affect our businesses and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a rapidly changing and competitive environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors.Further, it is not possible to assess the effect of all risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. In addition, Lincoln disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date of this presentation. The reporting of Risk-Based Capital (“RBC”) measures is not intended for the purpose of ranking any insurance company or for usein connection with any marketing, advertising or promotional activities.
