PEMBROKE, Bermuda, October 22, 2007 -- PartnerRe Ltd. (NYSE:PRE) today reported net income of $262.9 million, or $4.44 per share on a fully diluted basis, for the third quarter of 2007.

Net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $235.8 million or $3.93 per share, including net after-tax realized gains on investments, and earnings from the Company’s interest in the results of equity investments totaling $25.4 million or $0.44 per share. Operating earnings for the third quarter of 2007 were $274.2 million or $4.78 per share on a fully diluted basis. This compares to operating earnings of $201.8 million, or $3.49 per share, for the third quarter of 2006. Operating earnings exclude net after-tax realized investment gains/losses, and interest in earnings/losses of equity investments, and are calculated after payment of preferred dividends. All references to per share amounts are on a fully diluted basis.
Commenting on the third quarter and nine month 2007 results, PartnerRe President & Chief Executive Officer Patrick Thiele said, “PartnerRe’s third quarter results set new records in several metrics including earned premium, operating earnings, and earnings per share. A continuing low level of incurred losses combined with a seasonally high level of earned premium resulted in an annualized operating return on beginning shareholders’ equity of 34% and 10% growth in GAAP book value per share in the quarter. For the nine months, we achieved a 23% annualized operating return on beginning shareholders’ equity and 16% growth in GAAP book value per share.”

Commentary and Outlook
“Pricing in most segments of the non-life reinsurance market continues to weaken at a moderate rate but overall profitability remains at a satisfactory level due to the current low level of claims,” Mr. Thiele said. “We do see client behavior beginning to stabilize as regards the structure and the attachment points of their reinsurance programs, which should lead to a more orderly January 1 renewal in the U.S. and Europe. We also expect that the recent turmoil in the capital markets will present opportunities for PartnerRe’s ART and Investment areas, given our very strong and liquid balance sheet.”
The Company uses operating earnings, diluted operating earnings per share and operating return on beginning common shareholders’ equity to measure performance, as these measures focus on the underlying fundamentals of our operations without the impact of realized gains/losses from the sale of investments, which is driven by the timing of the disposition of investments, nor the interest in earnings/losses of equity investments, where the Company does not control the investee companies’ activities. The Company uses technical ratio and technical result as measures of underwriting performance. The technical ratio is defined as the sum of the loss and acquisition ratios. These metrics exclude other operating expenses. The Company also uses combined ratio to measure results for the Non-Life segment. The combined ratio is the sum of the technical and other operating expense
