Primerica, Inc. (PRI), a Delaware corporation, filed this Current Report on Form 8-K on August 7, 2023. The filing announces the results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The company is incorporated in Delaware and maintains its principal executive offices in Duluth, Georgia.

Key Financial Metrics

The filing text does not provide specific numerical values for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. Instead, it outlines the methodology for non-GAAP financial measures used by management to evaluate performance. These measures include adjusted direct premiums, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted operating income, and diluted adjusted operating earnings per share.

Key adjustments described in the filing include:

  • Exclusion of amounts ceded under IPO coinsurance transactions to reflect economically maintained premiums.
  • Exclusion of investment gains/losses and fair value mark-to-market adjustments to eliminate market volatility.
  • Exclusion of transaction-related expenses from the e-TeleQuote acquisition and non-cash goodwill impairment charges.
  • Exclusion of share-based compensation adjustments related to business combination share exchanges.
  • Exclusion of net unrealized investment gains/losses and discount rate differences in adjusted stockholders' equity.

Material Changes and Restatements

The company identified immaterial errors in previously presented financial information related to the newly adopted accounting standard for Long-Duration Insurance Contracts (LDTI). Consequently, financial information for periods prior to the second quarter of 2023 has been revised. Restated supplemental financial information for the fourth quarter of 2022 is included as an exhibit to this filing.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

The filing does not contain specific forward-looking guidance, numerical outlooks, or detailed risk factors within the text provided. Management commentary indicates that non-GAAP measures are used to provide meaningful comparisons of core ongoing business by removing period-over-period fluctuations caused by market pricing, investment timing, and non-recurring transaction costs. The filing notes that these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation.
