REGULATION G
In presenting the Company’s results, management has included and discussed net operating income, net operating income per share, net operating income per diluted share and net operating return on average shareholders’ equity. Such measures are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, allow for a more complete understanding of the Company’s business. These measures, however, should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliation of such measures to their respective most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G.
Net operating income is defined as net income excluding after-tax net realized gains or losses on fixed maturities, after-tax net foreign exchange gains or losses and after-tax merger and acquisition expenses. Net operating income per share and per diluted share is defined as the net operating income divided by the weighted average common shares or weighted average diluted common shares, respectively. We believe that this non-GAAP measure provides a better indication of management performance as realized gains and losses on fixed maturities may fluctuate from period to period and foreign exchange gains and losses are typically outside the control of management. Merger and acquisition expenses are not indicative of expenses fundamental to the business and may fluctuate from period to period.
Annualized net operating return on average shareholder’s equity is defined as annualized net operating income divided by the average of the beginning and ending shareholders’ equity. This non-GAAP measure allows management to assess how the Company has performed in terms of wealth generated for our shareholders.
