  • Midwest Holding Inc. Reports First Quarter 2022 Results

    May 16, 2022 by Midwest Holding Inc

    LINCOLN, Neb.May 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Midwest Holding Inc. (“Midwest”) (NASDAQ: MDWT), today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2022.

    First Quarter 2022 Highlights:

    • GAAP net income was $187,000 compared to a $(1.6) million GAAP net loss incurred in the first quarter of 2021. GAAP earnings were 5 cents per share (diluted) versus the (43) cent per-share loss in Q1 2021.
    • GAAP total revenue was $2.6 million compared to the negative total revenue of $(614,000) in the first quarter of 2021. Driving the year-over-year improvement in total revenue was increased net investment income, as invested assets grew to $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2022, compared with $693 million as of March 31, 2021, along with service fee revenue.
    • Annuity direct written premium under statutory accounting principles (“SAP”), a non-GAAP measure, was $98.1 million compared with $123.7 million in 2021’s first quarter and $104.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The mix of our new business was 26% Multiyear Guaranteed Annuities (MYGA) and 74% Fixed Income Annuities (FIA).
    • Ceded premiums (SAP) were $40.1 million compared with $47.5 million in the year-earlier quarter. The cession rate, or that portion of our written premiums that we reinsured, was 40.9% compared with 38.4%.
    • Total expenses benefited from negative interest credited due to the fall in value of the options embedded in our liabilities and the gain on mark-to-market value of the options allowance classified in other operating expenses.

    Georgette Nicholas, CEO of Midwest noted, “During the first quarter, we took action to position the Company for further growth relating to pricing, products, and investing in technology and foundational capabilities.  We saw encouraging trends in premiums written at the end of the first quarter and into the second quarter.  We are benefiting from movements in interest rates in our investment portfolio along with the capabilities we have been developing and saw service fee revenue continue to grow.  Overall, the first quarter has provided a base for us to continue to expand on.”

    Ms. Nicholas concluded: “Our opportunities are substantial to build on the value of our platform.  The focus of the team continues to be on the key drivers of growth and profitability: Deepening distribution relationships, state expansion to achieve sales growth, reinsurance, investment management, and operational readiness and efficiency. With these five keys to our strategy, we will deliver on our commitment to shareholders to produce strong growth paired with a high return on capital.”

    Q1 2022 versus Q1 2021 on a GAAP basis

    Midwest reported GAAP net income of $187,000 in the first quarter of 2022 compared to a $(1.6) million GAAP net loss incurred in the first quarter of 2021. On a diluted, per-share basis, this year’s quarterly net income was 5 cents compared with the (43)-cent per-share loss reported in the first quarter of 2021.  

    Investment income in 2022’s first quarter was $6.2 million compared with $2.9 million in the prior- year’s quarter.  Driving the change was an increase in invested assets and from performance on those assets benefiting from core capabilities developed on sourcing assets with higher yield generating approximately a 5.5% return on the investment portfolio. 

    Amortization of deferred gain on reinsurance reached $970,000 in first quarter of 2022 compared with $461,000 in the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to growth in the deferred gain on co-insurance on our balance sheet, which reflects ceding commissions received on reinsurance of business to third parties.

    Service fee revenue rose to $1.1 million versus $438,000 in the year-earlier March quarter.   Service fee revenue consists of fee revenue generated for our asset-management services provided to third-party clients. Assets under management for third parties was $455.4 million at March 31, 2022.

    Other revenue finished at $448,000 compared with $249,000 in the prior-year quarter.   Other revenue consists primarily of revenue we generate by providing ancillary services, such as policy administration, to third parties and policy surrender charges. 

    Our total expenses on a GAAP basis were a negative $3.3 million versus a negative $445,000 in the prior- year’s quarter.   Total expenses were helped by negative interest credited due to the decrease in value of the options embedded in our liabilities of $2.0 million and an increase in mark-to-market value of our options allowance of $6.4 million. Salaries and benefits were $4.3 million in Q1 2022 compared to $2.9 million in Q1 2021 as we added personnel, built processes, and worked on technology initiatives.

    Guidance

    We continue to see intense competition in the annuity market through aggressive pricing.  We have taken actions to maintain a competitive position and have seen positive results from these actions and improved sales momentum into the second quarter.  

    State expansion efforts remains a key priority. We have active applications in process and anticipate additional filings this quarter and expect to have more to say on this later in the year.

    Given these dynamics, we are affirming our guidance for 2022 based on our current view of our business and the annuity sales market.  Anticipated premiums written are expected to be in the range of $500 million to $600 million (SAP), influenced by state expansion, independent marketing organization (“IMO”) expansion reallocated personnel and other initiatives.   We continue to expect the mix in product sales to be consistent with that of 2021. 

    The goal is to cede, on average, approximately 70-90% of our premium in the year to generate ceded commission fees and manage capital.   Demand from our reinsurance partners is strong and we have capacity in place to cover anticipated written premium through existing reinsurers that have the potential to grow along with additional potential reinsurance transactions in the pipeline.

    We are working to bring general and administrative expenses on a management basis, a non-GAAP measure, to be approximately $27 to 28 million for the full year 2022.

    Finance Team Update

    The Company also announced today that it has transitions on its finance team. Daniel S. Maloney will be joining as the Executive Vice President of Accounting and Finance on May 23, 2022. Mr. Maloney is a Certified Public Accountant with more than 30 years of experience in the insurance industry at companies including Players Health, Horace Mann, American Fidelity, and AIG. He has a background in public accounting.  He has worked in various finance roles related to SEC reporting, statutory reporting, and controllership. Eric N. Berg will be stepping down as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective May 16, 2022. Mr. Berg’s departure is not related to any disagreement relating to the Company’s accounting, strategy, management, operations, policies, regulatory matters, or practices (financial or otherwise).

    Ms. Nicholas will serve as both the CEO and the Chief Financial Officer in the interim.  The Company will initiate a search to find its next Chief Financial Officer and will consider internal and external candidates in due course.

    Q1 2022 Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    In addition to GAAP measures, Midwest’s management utilizes a series of key performance indicators (KPIs) and non-GAAP measures to, among other things:

    1)  monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations and financial performance;

    2)  facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations;

    3)  review and assess the operating performance of our management team;

    4)  analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operations;

    5)  plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments; and

    6)  facilitate comparison of results between periods and to better understand the underlying historical trends in our business and prospects. 

    These non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures; however, management believes that when used in conjunction with the GAAP measures, the non-GAAP measures can contribute to investors’ understanding of our business. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, our operating performance measures as prescribed by GAAP.

    Annuity Premiums (a KPI)

    For the first quarter of 2022, annuity direct written premiums were $98.1 million compared with $123.7 million in the first quarter of 2021 reflecting competitive annuity sales environment.    Ceded premiums were $40.1 in 2022’s first quarter compared with $47.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.  Of the first quarter 2022 sales of $98.1 million, approximately 26 % was in the MYGA category and the remaining 74 % consisted of sales of FIAs.

    We use this non-GAAP figure to measure our efforts to secure third-party capital to back our reinsurance programs.   Fees Received for Reinsurance sums two components: Amortization of deferred gain on reinsurance, which is a line item in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), and deferred coinsurance ceding commission, which is a line item in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

    For the first quarter of 2022, fees received for reinsurance totaled $2.4 million compared with $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2021.

    G&A expense in the March 2022 quarter was $8.9 million compared with $5.3 million in the prior year’s March quarter.   The increase was to support the potential growth in the business and reflected costs incurred to attract talent, for legal and consulting to support transactions, investment structures, state expansion efforts, and technology initiatives.

    Management Expenses (a non-GAAP measure)

    We use this metric to monitor the expenses of our business on a cash basis.   Importantly, we exclude from the calculation of management expenses the index interest credited related to our FIAs because this expense is hedged.   Instead, we add back to Management Expenses the period’s amortization of options previously purchased to provide this hedge. We view this amortized cost as our true cost of funds.   Management Expenses also excludes the mark-to-market adjustment of our option budget allowance. Management Expenses and non-cash stock-based compensation.

    For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the sum of salaries and benefits and other operating expenses totaled $2.5 million compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, as disclosed above, included in these expenses is mainly salaries, benefits and other operating expenses, along with $6.4 million of non-cash mark-to-market option allowance of our derivative option allowance, which we exclude in our management G&A.
