Sagicor Financial Corporation Limited
Chairman's review
Q3 Financial Results
The Sagicor Group maintained a solid performance for the nine
months to September 30, 2019. Group net income closed the period at
US $79.5 million against a prior year result of US $59.0 million.
Net income attributable to shareholders from continuing operations
was US $32.5 million compared to the prior year result of US $28.5
million. Net income to shareholders from continuing operations in
2018 included the impact of a provision on the Government of
Barbados Debt and was partially offset by certain one-time positive
earnings releases.
Total revenue for the Group amounted to US $1,399.0 million,
against a prior year amount of US $1,063.4 million, an increase of
US $335.6 million or 32%. Revenue growth was driven primarily by
the USA business segment which generated premium growth, amplified
by our strategic decision to cease reinsuring its premiums to third
parties. Revenues continue to grow year over year in the Sagicor
Jamaica and Sagicor Life business segments as well.
Benefits including change in actuarial liabilities for future
benefits were US $888.0 million, compared to US $537.4 million for
the previous year and was consistent with the growth in premium
income. Expenses including credit impairment losses were US $393.8
million, compared to US $443.0 million for the same period in the
prior year, a decrease of 11%.
Expenses in the prior year included credit impairment losses of
US $96.0 million, largely related to the impairment of the
Government of Barbados debt. Current year expenses include the
impact of higher commissions related to sales growth in the USA
segment.
Our operating segments continued to perform well. The Sagicor
Life segment reflected robust organic growth, with net income
amplified by comparison to Q3 2018 which included certain debt
restructuring provisions on GoB debt. Sagicor Jamaica reflected
continued robust growth and profitability across the segment.
Sagicor Life USA segment reflected slowing growth in net premiums,
as the segment scaled back new business production in the quarter,
in response to relative net interest margins. Net income in the
Sagicor Life USA segment declined relative to a prior year
comparable quarter that included certain positive provisions.
Group comprehensive income was US $115.9 million, compared to a
loss of US $6.6 million for the prior year. Shareholder
comprehensive income from continuing operations was US $62.4
million, compared to a loss of US $10.0 million for the prior year.
The Group continues to benefit from significant net gains on
investments measured at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive
Income. Losses incurred on the retranslation of foreign currency
operations reduced this year when compared to the previous
year.
Results for the third quarter of 2019 reflected moderate
aggregate growth in our core operating segments, offset by losses
in non-core segments. Group net income from continuing operations
closed the three-month period to September 30, 2019 at US $21.1
million compared to US $19.6 million for the same period in 2018;
an increase of US $1.5 million (7.7%). Net income to shareholders
from continuing operations was
US $6.3 million compared to US $7.0 million in Q3 2018. During
Q3 2019, Sagicor took a provision of $2.5 million, representing our
maximum potential impact from Hurricane Dorian. During Q3 2018, the
Group increased its provisions on the Government of Barbados (GoB)
debt; net impact on the net income was US $16.4 million. Net income
from continuing operations in 2018, also benefitted from certain
one-time positive earnings releases that did not recur in 2019.
In the statement of financial position as at September 30, 2019,
assets amounted to US $8.1 billion, and liabilities amounted to US
$6.8 billion. Group equity was US $1,248.8 million, compared to US
$1,135.5 million at December 31, 2018. Shareholders' equity was US
$660.4 million, compared to US $600.9 million at December 31, 2018.
The Group's debt was US $512.4 million with a debt to capital ratio
of 29.1%, compared to 30.2% at December 31, 2018.
On June 4, our shareholders overwhelmingly approved the
previously announced transaction with Alignvest Acquisition II
Corporation ("AQY"), with 99.5% of shares voting in favour of the
transaction. Our shareholders showed further support by electing to
receive an aggregate of approximately US $20 million in cash
consideration out of the maximum available US $205 million we
offered to them. As a result, the vast majority of Sagicor's
shareholders will continue to retain their investment in Sagicor
post the transaction.
Following completion of the Transaction, which is expected to
close in the fourth quarter of 2019 subject to customary regulatory
approvals, it is expected that Sagicor will retain over US $420
million of net cash from the transaction, leaving our company
exceptionally well capitalized for future growth.
Effective 30 September 2019, the group acquired 60% of the share
capital of Advantage General Insurance Company Limited domiciled in
Jamaica for a purchase consideration of US $31.4 million. The
acquired business had no impact on the results for the nine months
ended September 2019.
On October 18, 2019 the Government of Barbados (GOB) announced
agreement in principle with the External Creditor Committee for the
restructuring of its US dollar denominated commercial debt. In
consideration of the recently released terms for the restructure of
the US dollar denominated commercial debt, management believes that
it has fully provided for this exposure.
Sagicor had announced its intention in November 2018 to acquire
Scotia Jamaica Life Insurance Company Limited ("Scotiabank
Insurance Jamaica") and ScotiaLife Trinidad and Tobago Limited
("Scotiabank Insurance Trinidad and Tobago"). Sagicor and The Bank
of Nova Scotia Jamaica Limited have mutually agreed not to proceed
with the 20-year distribution agreement for insurance products and
solutions in Jamaica. As a result, Sagicor will not proceed with
the acquisition of Scotiabank Insurance Jamaica at this time.
Sagicor, Alignvest Acquisition II Corporation and Scotiabank
Trinidad and Tobago Limited remain parties to a share purchase
agreement dated November 27, 2018 (the "Trinidad SPA") pursuant to
which Sagicor agreed to establish a 20-year distribution agreement
for insurance products and solutions in Trinidad and Tobago, and
acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of
Scotiabank Insurance Trinidad and Tobago, subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. Sagicor continues to
pursue the transactions contemplated in the Trinidad SPA.
On behalf of the Board of Sagicor, I wish to thank our
Shareholders and Customers for their continued support.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 2 of the
December 31, 2018 audited financial statements, except for the
adoption of IFRS 16 - Leases'. This standard became effective from
January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 removes the distinction between operating
and finance leases and requires recognition of an asset (the right
to use the leased item) and a financial liability to pay rentals,
for virtually all lease contracts.
In accordance with the transition provisions in IFRS 16, the
standard has been implemented using the modified retrospective
method with no restatement of comparative information. In applying
IFRS 16 for the first time, the group has used the practical
expedients permitted by the standard.
This information is provided by RNS, the news service of the
London Stock Exchange. RNS is approved by the Financial Conduct
