Primerica Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results
Primerica, Inc. (NYSE: PRI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Total revenues were $673.3 million, decreasing 3% compared to the third quarter of 2021. Net income of $51.8 million decreased 54%, while net earnings per diluted share of $1.37 decreased 51% compared to the same period in the prior year. Results reflect a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $60.0 million, or $1.59 per diluted share, in connection with the annual goodwill impairment test for the Senior Health reporting unit. The calculated decline in fair value was primarily attributable to an increase in the market-based weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) used to discount forecasted cash flows. The increase in the WACC was driven by higher equity market risk premiums and interest rates.
