REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER RESULTS
-----------------------------------------------------------
ST. LOUIS, January 29, 2007 - Reinsurance Group of America,
Incorporated (NYSE:RGA), a leading global provider of life reinsurance,
reported net income for the fourth quarter of $81.5 million, or $1.28 per
diluted share, compared to $68.2 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, in the
prior-year quarter. RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called operating
income as a basis for analyzing financial results. The definition of operating
income and reconciliations to GAAP net income are provided in the following
tables. Operating income increased to $81.0 million, or $1.27 per diluted
share, from $73.1 million, or $1.15 per diluted share in the year-ago quarter,
reflecting strong international results and solid contributions from the U.S.
and Canadian segments. Fourth-quarter net premiums rose 13 percent, to
$1,200.7 million, from $1,060.1 million a year ago. Net investment income
totaled $240.8 million versus $169.4 million the year before.
For the full-year 2006, consolidated net income totaled $288.2
million, or $4.57 per diluted share, compared to $224.2 million, or $3.52 per
diluted share for 2005. Operating income increased 30 percent to $293.2
million, or $4.65 per diluted share, from $225.5 million, or $3.54 per diluted
share, the year before. Consolidated premiums were up 12 percent, to $4,346.0
million from $3,866.8 million.
A. Greig Woodring, president and chief executive officer, commented,
"We are pleased with the results for the quarter and the year. Contributions
from our international operations were substantial and our more established
operations in the U.S. and Canada continue to be among the leaders in their
markets.
"The U.S. segment reported solid earnings with pre-tax net income
totaling $86.3 million for the quarter versus $82.2 million the year before.
Pre-tax operating income totaled $84.9

million versus $88.7 million the year before, when results were quite strong.
The quarter capped off a solid year for the U.S. segment with $330.8 million
of pre-tax operating earnings, a 21 percent increase from 2005. Mortality
experience for the quarter, and the year as a whole, was within our range of
expectations. Net premiums were up 7 percent to $728.2 million from $678.3
million in the prior-year quarter. For the year, premiums increased 9 percent,
at the midpoint of our expected range.
"For the quarter, our Canada operations reported pre-tax net income
of $12.8 million compared to $12.1 million a year ago. Pre-tax operating
income totaled $11.0 million compared to $11.6 million a year ago. Claims flow
improved from earlier in the year, but was still slightly
higher-than-expected. Net premiums increased 30 percent to $134.6 million from
$103.4 million in the prior year. A significant portion of that growth was
driven by one group creditor treaty. Net premiums and pre-tax operating income
for the fourth quarter of 2006 benefited from a favorable currency exchange
rate relative to the prior year by approximately $3.5 million and $0.4
million, respectively.
"Other International operations, which include our Asia Pacific and
Europe and South Africa segments, were strong across the board. Asia Pacific
reported pre-tax net income of $23.9 million compared with $15.6 million in
the year-ago quarter. Pre-tax operating income totaled $24.1 million compared
with $15.9 million a year ago. Segment-wide claims experience was good during
the current quarter, which was also the case in the prior-year quarter.
Stronger premium flow also contributed to the bottom line as net premiums
increased 37 percent to $186.6 million from $136.4 million. Foreign currency
fluctuations favorably affected net premiums and pre-tax operating income by
approximately $7.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Results for the
full year were very strong with pre-tax operating income increasing 87 percent
to $59.0 million.
"Europe and South Africa results were also strong for the quarter,
due primarily to favorable claims experience, with pre-tax net income rising
to $17.4 million from $12.1 million a year ago. Pre-tax operating income
increased to $17.4 million versus $12.3 million last year. Net premiums
increased 7 percent for the quarter to $150.9 million. That rate of growth has
slowed compared to previous years, reflecting the considerable level of
competition, most notably in the UK, our largest market in this segment.
Foreign currency exchange fluctuations favorably affected reported net
premiums and pre-tax operating income by approximately $9.5 million and $1.6
million, respectively. For the year, Europe and South Africa results were very
strong with pre-tax operating income increasing 63 percent to $58.6 million."

Woodring continued, "Fourth-quarter results mark the completion of a
very successful year. Of particular note is the contribution from our
international operations, which in total generated $117.5 million in pre-tax
operating income, or approximately 26 percent of our consolidated amount.
Looking ahead for 2007, we expect continued strong growth in select
international markets, particularly in Asia, while our North American
operations will continue to grow at a more moderate pace. On a consolidated
basis, we expect premiums to increase in a range of 10 percent to 13 percent.
The North American operations will likely grow in the high single digits,
while the international operations are expected to grow in a range of 12 to 15
percent. In terms of earnings per share, we expect 2007 to be within a range
of $4.80 to $5.40 per diluted share."
Woodring concluded, "Further, we head into 2007 with strong
operations across the globe. We have made significant progress over the past
several years in running off the ancillary businesses that were problematic
and non-core to our broader life reinsurance businesses, and are in better
shape than ever to focus our attention on continuing to build our core
businesses."
The board of directors elected Steven A. Kandarian, Executive Vice
President and Chief Investment Officer of MetLife, Inc., as a director and
chairman of the board to fill the vacancies created by the resignation on
January 18, 2007, of Leland C. Launer, Jr.
The company also announced that its board of directors declared a
regular quarterly dividend of $0.09, payable February 26 to shareholders of
record as of February 5.

will begin at 9 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, January 30. Interested parties

Operating Income
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, primarily because that measure
excludes the effect of net investment related 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.
