Tax effected at 24%.

In the third quarter, consolidated net premiums totaled $3.1 billion, an increase of 9.5% over last year's third quarter, with a favorable net foreign currency effect of $51 million. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses and the value of associated derivatives, third quarter investment income increased 40%, reflecting a 4% higher average asset balance and strong variable investment income. Average investment yield increased to 4.95% in the third quarter from 3.66% in the prior year, primarily due to higher variable investment income.

The effective tax rate of 34.3% on the pre-tax loss for the quarter was above the expected range of 23% to 24% primarily due to favorable adjustments from tax returns filed which were partially offset with income in higher tax jurisdictions and losses in tax jurisdictions for which the Company did not receive a tax benefit.

The effective tax rate of 15.2% on adjusted operating loss for the quarter was below the expected range of 23% to 24% primarily due to adjusted operating income in higher tax jurisdictions and losses in tax jurisdictions for which the Company did not receive a tax benefit. This was partially offset with favorable adjustments from tax returns filed.

Anna Manning, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our third quarter reflected strong underlying earnings, demonstrating the value and resilience of our diversified global business, although COVID-19 claim costs were material in the quarter. We continue to see encouraging new business activity both in our organic business and in the pipeline for in-force transactions. Reported premiums were up 9.5%.

"On the capital front, we deployed $140 million into in-force transactions and repurchased $46 million of common shares at an average price of $113.37. In addition, we completed an attractive asset-intensive retrocession transaction generating $94 million in capital. These actions demonstrate our commitment to effective and efficient capital management. Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $1.0 billion.

"While our results will continue to reflect COVID-19 claims, we expect them to continue to be manageable."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called adjusted 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 adjusted 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 substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses, as well as changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives and related deferred acquisition costs. These items can be volatile, 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, adjusted operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, tax reform and other items that management believes are not indicative of the Company's ongoing operations. The definition of adjusted operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income.

Book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes is important in evaluating the balance sheet in order to ignore the effects of unrealized amounts primarily associated with mark-to-market adjustments on investments and foreign currency translation.

Adjusted operating income per diluted share is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average stockholders' equity excluding AOCI. Similar to adjusted operating income, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company's continuing operations, they also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under RGA's management incentive programs.

Reconciliations from GAAP net income, book value per share, net income per diluted share and average stockholders' equity are provided in the following tables. Additional financial information can be found in the Quarterly Financial Supplement on RGA's Investor Relations website at www.rgare.com in the "Financial Information" section.
