ITEM 2.02 - RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
As disclosed in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period
ending March 31, 2006, during the first quarter of 2006, the Company changed its
method of allocating capital to its reportable segments from a method based upon
regulatory capital requirements ("RBC") to one based on underlying economic
capital ("EC") levels. The economic capital model is an internally developed
risk capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business
and to provide a basis upon which capital is deployed. The economic capital
model considers the unique and specific nature of the risks inherent in RGA's
businesses. This is in contrast to the standardized regulatory risk based
capital formula, which is not as refined in its risk calculations with respect
to each of the Company's businesses. As a result of the economic capital
allocation process, a portion of investment income and investment related gains
(losses) is credited or charged to the reportable segments based on the level of
allocated equity. In addition, the reportable segments are charged for excess
capital utilized above the allocated economic capital basis. This charge is
included in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses.
Management believes that the change from the RBC to EC basis of allocating
capital is considered a change in measurement of segment results, not
composition. The Company's segment results by quarter for 2005 and 2004 have
been revised in this report giving effect to this change. The consolidated
financial statements are not affected by this change. See "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" below.
The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be
deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of
such section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in
any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall
be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
ITEM 7.01 - REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
As disclosed in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period
ending March 31, 2006, during the first quarter of 2006, the Company changed its
method of allocating capital to its reportable segments from a method based upon
RBC requirements to one based on underlying EC levels. The economic capital
model is an internally developed risk capital model, the purpose of which is to
measure the risk in the business and to provide a basis upon which capital is
deployed. The economic capital model considers the unique and specific nature of
the risks inherent in RGA's businesses. This is in contrast to the standardized
regulatory risk based capital formula, which is not as refined in its risk
calculations with respect to each of the Company's businesses. As a result of
the economic capital allocation process, a portion of investment income and
investment related gains (losses) is credited or charged to the reportable
segments based on the level of allocated equity. In addition, the reportable
segments are charged for excess capital utilized above the allocated economic
capital basis. This charge is included in policy acquisition costs and other
insurance expenses.
Management believes that the change from the RBC to EC basis of allocating
capital is considered a change in measurement of segment results, not
composition. The Company's segment results by quarter for 2005 and 2004 have
been revised in this report giving effect to this change. The consolidated
financial statements are not affected by this change. See "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" below.
The information in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be
deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or
otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, nor shall such information
be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of
1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific
reference in such a filing.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The segment results include information on operating income before income taxes
which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses this measure
to analyze financial results and establish target levels and awards under RGA's
management incentive programs. Management believes that operating income, on a
pre-tax and after-tax basis, better measures the ongoing profitability and
underlying trends of the Company's continuing operations, primarily because that
measure excludes the effect of net realized capital gains and losses, as well as
changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives and related deferred
acquisition costs. These items tend to be highly variable, primarily due to the
credit market and interest rate environment and are not necessarily indicative
of the performance of the Company's underlying businesses. Additionally,
operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations and
the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, which management believes are
not indicative of the Company's ongoing operations. The definition of operating
income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net
income.
