A full discussion of our fourth-quarter and full-year results is available at www.inalco.com under Investor Relations/Financial Reports.

A strong finish to the year with a dividend increase of 6%

  • Q4 earnings up 26% to $91.1 M ($0.91 EPS)
  • 2013 earnings up 15% to $349.9 M ($3.57 EPS)
  • Return on shareholders' equity of 12.6% (12.2% for Q4)
  • Book value up 12% YoY to $30.67
  • Solvency ratio of 217%
  • Quarterly dividend increases 6% to 26¢ per common share

 

QUEBEC CITY, Feb. 13, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, Industrial Alliance Insurance and Financial Services Inc. (TSX: IAG) reports net income attributed to common shareholders of $91.1 million, up 26% over last year. Diluted earnings per common share increased to $0.91 from $0.76 a year ago, and the annualized return on shareholders' equity was 12.2%.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, net income attributed to common shareholders increased 15% to $349.9 million. Diluted earnings per common share increased to $3.57 from $3.22 a year ago, and the return on shareholders' equity was 12.6%.

At December 31, 2013, the Company's book value was $30.67, up 12% over the previous year-end. The solvency ratio was 217% versus 227% at September 30, 2013, reflecting the acquisition of Jovian Capital on October 1st and the redemption of preferred shares on December 31st.

These results, which include the impact of year-end assumption changes and the previously announced restructuring provision for Jovian Capital Corporation, exceed the annual guidance provided by management for earnings per common share ($3.00 to $3.40), return on shareholders' equity (10.5% to 12.0%) and the solvency ratio (175% to 200%).

"Our fourth quarter results capped one of the best performances in our history," commented Yvon Charest, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The improvement in profit from our Individual Insurance operations and the continued strong contribution from our less capital-intensive businesses, together with a more favourable macroeconomic environment, enabled us to deliver significant year over year growth in earnings. Given these excellent results, we are pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has approved an increase in the quarterly dividend on common shares."

René Chabot, Senior Vice-President and Appointed Actuary added, "Even with our year-end assumption review and the provision for Jovian, we exceeded our earnings guidance for both the quarter and the year. We kept the strain-to-new business ratio below 25% and maintained a strong capital position throughout the year. As for our balance sheet, our financial flexibility is well within the levels expected of a company with our strong credit ratings, and both our reserves and solvency ratio can absorb a sizeable drop in equity markets."

FOURTH QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

Profitability - For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013, Industrial Alliance reports net income attributed to common shareholders of $91.1 million, a year over year increase of 26%. Diluted earnings per share amounted to $0.91 compared with $0.76 in the same quarter last year. The annualized shareholders' return on equity was 12.2% versus 11.7% last year.

The key elements that explain profitability follow. All figures are after taxes unless otherwise indicated.

Year-end assumption changes - Actuarial reserves were strengthened by a net amount of $6.1 million or $0.06 per share. Among the key changes, the continued improvement in mortality rates and the increase in long-term interest rates during 2013 contributed positively to assumption changes, while reserves were strengthened for lapse and ultimate reinvestment rate (-10 bps) assumptions.

Jovian restructuring - A provision of $4.6 million or $0.05 per share was taken for restructuring costs associated with the acquisition of Jovian Capital Corporation. Fourth quarter results also included acquisition costs of $0.01 per share.

Individual Insurance reported an experience gain of $0.10 per share ($10.1 million). The increase in equity markets contributed $0.06 per share, while morbidity ($0.02 EPS) and investment gains ($0.02 EPS) accounted for the remainder.

Individual Wealth Management had an experience gain of $0.01 per share ($1.0 million). The dynamic hedging program for the segregated funds guarantee provided a benefit of $0.06 per share and the growth in equity markets contributed $0.05 per share. This was offset principally by acquisition and restructuring costs of $0.06 per share for Jovian as well as one-time expenses representing $0.04 per share.

Group Insurance reported an experience loss of $0.02 per share ($1.4 million) attributed to higher claims for health and dental benefits in Employee Plans. Both Dealer Services and Special Market Solutions were in line or above expectations.

Group Savings and Retirement contributed $0.04 per share ($3.8 million) related to fees on a large service contract.

Strain - In the Individual Insurance sector, the strain-to-new business ratio of 11% compared with guidance of 15% for the fourth quarter. Management estimates that strain improvement represented $0.03 per share, attributed to a favourable sales mix and lower sales. For the full year, strain was 21% compared with guidance of 25%.

Income on capital - Total income on capital of $17.5 million pre-tax compares with $24.8 million in the third quarter. The fourth quarter principally reflects a lower contribution from IA Auto and Home (-$2.3 million) and lower investment income (-$3.9 million).

Income taxes - The effective tax rate was 18.5% for the quarter and 21% for the full year, compared with our guidance of 21% to 24%. The fourth quarter reflects the realization of corporate tax efficiencies and an increase in the fair value of real estate.

Business Growth - Premiums and deposits amounted to $1.8 billion in the fourth quarter, which represents an increase of 5% over the same quarter last year. Assets under management and administration reached $98.7 billion at year-end ($83.5 billion a year ago), reflecting the increase in equity markets, strong mutual fund inflows as well as the assets acquired with Jovian Capital ($6.4 billion).

In the Individual sectors, wealth management excelled with the mutual fund segment delivering strong growth for a fifth consecutive quarter with gross sales of $540.5 million. Net mutual fund sales of $111.2 million more than offset the decrease in net sales of segregated funds during the quarter. Insurance sales in the fourth quarter were down by 17% (4% for the full year), with sales amounting to $57.2 million versus $69.2 million a year ago.

In the Group sectors, Special Market Solutions lead the growth with sales of $48.7 million (+10%). In Dealer Services, sales of creditor insurance increased to $90.1 million (+6%) and sales of P&C products increased to $32.8 million (+6%). Employee Plans reported sales of $8.1 million, comparable to the previous year. Group Savings and Retirement reported sales of $253.5 million (+6%).

Capital - At December 31, 2013, the solvency ratio was 217% compared with 227% at September, 2013. The key elements explaining the decrease are the acquisition of Jovian Capital on October 1, 2013 (-5%) and the redemption of all the issued and outstanding Class A Preferred Shares Series C on December 31, 2013 (-6%).

Quality of Investments - At December 31, 2013, net impaired investments stood at 0.06% of total investments, the proportion of bonds rated BB and lower was 0.18% and the real estate occupancy rate was 94%. All these measures were unchanged from the previous quarter end.

Dividend - The Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend by 6% to 26 cents on its outstanding common shares. This dividend is payable on March 17, 2014 to shareholders of record as at February 28, 2014.

Dividend Reinvestment - Registered shareholders wishing to enroll in the Company's Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan so as to be eligible to reinvest the next dividend payable on March 17th must ensure that the duly completed form is delivered to Computershare no later than 4:00 p.m. on February 21, 2014. Enrollment information is provided on the Company's website at www.inalco.com under Investor Relations/Dividends.

Macroeconomic Sensitivity - Following the update of its sensitivity analysis at December 31, 2013:

  • The Company can absorb a sudden decrease of about 23% in the S&P/TSX index before having to strengthen reserves for policyholder liabilities (16% at September 30, 2013).

  • The Company can absorb a sudden decrease of 36% in the S&P/TSX index before the solvency ratio drops below 175% (37% at September 30, 2013) and a decrease of 48% before the solvency ratio drops below 150% (49% at September 30, 2013).

  • The full-year impact on net income attributed to common shareholders of a sudden 10% decrease in the stock markets is $25 million ($24 million at September 30, 2013). This does not take into consideration any potential reserve strengthening.

  • The impact on net income attributed to common shareholders of a 10 basis point decrease in the initial and ultimate reinvestment rates totals $79 million ($73 million at September 30, 2013).

Market Guidance for 2014

  • Earnings per common share: target range increased to $3.40 to $3.80
  • Return on common shareholders' equity (ROE): target range increased to 11.0% to 12.5%
  • Solvency ratio: target range remains unchanged at 175% to 200%
  • Dividend payout ratio: payout range remains unchanged at 25% to 35% with the target being the mid-point
  • Effective tax rate: target range reduced to 18% to 22%
  • Strain on new business: unchanged at 25% of sales

Guidance for ROE and earnings per common share excludes any potential reserve strengthening in 2014.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Non-IFRS Financial Information
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS). It also publishes certain non-IFRS financial measures that do not have an IFRS equivalent, including sales, value of new business, embedded value and solvency ratio, or which have an IFRS equivalent such as data on operating profit and income taxes on earnings presented in the sources of earnings table. The Company also uses non-IFRS adjusted data in relation to net income, earnings per share and return on equity. These non-IFRS financial measures are always accompanied by and reconciled with IFRS financial measures. The Company believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide investors and analysts with additional information to better understand the Company's financial results as well as assess its growth and earnings potential. Since non-IFRS financial measures do not have a standardized definition, they may differ from the non-IFRS financial measures used by other institutions. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its financial statements and other publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
