REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA REPORTS INCREASES
----------------------------------------------
IN FOURTH-QUARTER REVENUES AND EARNINGS
---------------------------------------
ST. LOUIS, January 29, 2004 - Reinsurance Group of America,
Incorporated (NYSE:RGA), one of North America's leading providers of life
reinsurance, reported net income for the fourth quarter of $56.1 million, or
$0.99 per diluted share, compared with net income of $33.4 million, or $0.67
per diluted share in the prior-year quarter, a 48 percent increase on a
per-share basis. Net income in the current quarter includes an after-tax
gain of approximately $9.0 million related to the newly adopted accounting
standard on embedded derivatives in certain reinsurance contracts.
Fourth-quarter net premiums increased 60 percent, to $942.4 million from
$590.6 million in 2002. Net premiums in the quarter include $246.1 million
associated with the recently completed transaction with Allianz Life.
RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called operating income as a
basis for analyzing financial results. This measure also serves as a basis
for establishing 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 because that measure excludes
the effect of net realized capital gains and losses, 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 our underlying businesses. Additionally, operating income
excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, which management
believes is 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. Reconciliations of GAAP net income to
operating income are provided in the tables immediately following the text
of this press release.

Operating income for the quarter increased 12 percent on a
per-share basis and totaled $48.2 million, or $0.85 per diluted share
compared to $37.8 million, or $0.76 per diluted share in the year-ago
quarter. "Our results reflect strong premium and earnings growth across all
operating segments of our business," said A. Greig Woodring, president and
chief executive officer.
"Pre-tax net income in the U.S. for the quarter totaled $72.4
million compared with $43.5 million in the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax
operating income for the quarter totaled $58.0 million compared with $48.5
million in the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax operating income for the U.S.
Traditional operations in the current quarter includes approximately $10.5
million from the recently acquired Allianz business. Mortality experience
was within our range of expectations. Strong year-over-year results in the
traditional operations were offset somewhat by a decrease in income from our
asset-intensive operations, primarily due to credit losses within the funds
withheld portfolios and several large transactions recorded in the
prior-period quarter. Premiums in the U.S. increased $277.2 million, or 68
percent over the prior-year quarter. Approximately $246.1 million of that
increase is from the Allianz business. For the year premiums increased 28
percent.
"Canada reported a good quarter, with pre-tax net income of $16.0
million compared with $11.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax
operating income totaled $14.7 million, up 30 percent from $11.3 million in
the prior-year quarter. Mortality experience was consistent with
expectations. Net premiums increased 25 percent for the quarter and 18
percent for the year. Results for the quarter and year benefited from an
increase in the strength of the Canadian dollar. On an original currency
basis, premiums for the quarter and year increased approximately 5 percent
and pre-tax operating income increased approximately 11 percent and 7
percent, respectively.
"Other International operations, which exclude Canada, continued
their strong growth, with net premiums increasing 46 percent to $197.5
million in the fourth quarter. On an original currency basis, premiums
increased 28 percent. Pre-tax net income totaled $17.7 million compared with
$1.0 million in the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax operating income for the
quarter totaled $15.7 million, a significant increase over the breakeven
result in the prior-year period. Approximately $1.5 million of that total
was the result of favorable currency fluctuations. For the year, pre-tax
operating income totaled $36.3 million compared to $9.1 million in the prior
year. Approximately $3.3 million of the current-year amount was due to
favorable currency

fluctuations. Segment-wide mortality experience for the quarter was
consistent with expectations. We continue to see good profit expansion from
these operations as reinsurance in force increases; however, results may
continue to be more volatile than our more established operations in North
America due to the smaller relative size of this segment's base of
business."
For 2003, net income totaled $173.1 million, or $3.36 per diluted
share, compared with $122.8 million, or $2.47 per diluted share, in 2002.
Operating income increased to $166.2 million, or $3.22 per diluted share,
from $139.2 million, or $2.80 per diluted share, the year before, a 15
percent increase on a per share basis. Consolidated premiums were up 33
percent, to $2,643.2 million from $1,980.7 million.
Woodring continued, "We completed a successful common equity
offering during the quarter, issuing 12,075,000 new shares with net proceeds
to the company totaling $427 million. The proceeds will be used to support
our growth, both domestically and abroad, although we do not expect to open
any new international offices in 2004. Additionally, we closed our
transaction with Allianz as planned, and the transition of the treaty
information to our systems is on schedule. These significant events capped
off a very successful 2003 for RGA. As we look to 2004, we expect operating
earnings per share to be within a range of $3.40 to $3.65, reflecting
premium growth of between 15 to 18 percent and stable investment yields."
The company announced that its board of directors declared a
regular quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share, payable February 27 to
shareholders of record as of February 6.
A conference call to discuss the company's fourth-quarter results
will begin at 9 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, January 30. Interested parties
