Exhibit 99.1 [RGA logo] Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated(R) For further information, contact Jack B. Lay Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (636) 736-7000 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - --------------------- REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA REPORTS FOURTH-QUARTER --------------------------------------------------- OPERATING INCOME OF $1.42 PER DILUTED SHARE; -------------------------------------------- PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR FULL-YEAR 2008 ------------------------------------ ST. LOUIS, January 23, 2008 - Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE:RGA), a leading global provider of life reinsurance, reported net income for the fourth quarter of $63.6 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, compared to $81.5 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called operating income as a basis for analyzing financial results. The definition of operating income and reconciliations to GAAP net income are provided in the following tables. Operating income increased 13 percent to $91.2 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, from $81.0 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. On a per share basis, operating income increased 12 percent. Fourth-quarter net premiums rose 12 percent, to $1,348.0 million, from $1,200.7 million a year ago. Net investment income totaled $226.8 million versus $240.8 million the year before. For the full-year 2007, net income totaled $293.8 million or $4.57 per diluted share, compared to $288.2 million, or $4.57 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. Operating income totaled $353.5 million, or $5.50 per diluted share, compared to $293.2 million, or $4.65 per diluted share, in the prior-year period, an 18 percent increase on a per share basis. Consolidated net premiums were up 13 percent, to $4,909.0 million from $4,346.0 million. A. Greig Woodring, president and chief executive officer, commented, "Results for the quarter were once again strong, contributing to a record year for RGA in terms of revenues and operating income. The U.S. and Canada segments, in particular, reported very strong operating income. Total U.S. segment pre-tax operating income increased 30 percent to $110.7 million from $84.9 million the year before. Claim levels were very favorable in the Traditional segment. -more-
Add one "Our U.S. facultative operation set a record this year as it processed over 100,000 facultative submissions for the first time in its 30-plus year history. Our facultative expertise continues to be highly coveted by our clients and continues to distinguish us from our competition. Net premiums were up 9 percent to $791.4 million from $728.2 million in the prior-year quarter. On a year-to-date basis, net premiums increased 8 percent. "The U.S. segment reported pre-tax net income totaling $82.4 million for the quarter versus $86.3 million the year before. The current quarter includes a $22.9 million pre-tax loss, net of deferred acquisition costs, due to a decline in the value of embedded derivatives associated with modified coinsurance and funds withheld treaties. The change in value of the embedded derivatives represents a non-cash, unrealized change due to the impact of widening credit spreads on the investment portfolios underlying certain of our funds withheld annuity reinsurance treaties. We consider it a non-operating item since it is unrealized and does not affect current cash flows or spread performance on the underlying treaties. "Our Canada operations reported another strong quarter on favorable mortality, with pre-tax net income of $19.5 million compared to $12.8 million a year ago. Pre-tax operating income totaled $19.5 million, up substantially from $11.0 million a year ago. Net premiums increased 5 percent to $141.4 million from $134.6 million in the prior year. For the year, premiums were up 13 percent. Net premiums for the fourth quarter of 2007 were favorably affected by currency exchange rates relative to the prior year by approximately $19.6 million, as the Canadian dollar strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar. The impact of foreign currency fluctuations favorably affected pre-tax operating income by approximately $3.1 million. "Asia Pacific reported a good quarter as well with strong premium flow and favorable segment-wide claims experience. Pre-tax net income totaled $16.9 million compared with $23.9 million in the year-ago quarter while pre-tax operating income totaled $17.5 million compared with $24.1 million a year ago. The prior-year quarter reflected very favorable mortality experience. Net premiums increased 28 percent to $238.3 million from $186.6 million. Our three largest markets, Australia, Japan and South Korea, reported solid results for the quarter and year as a whole. Additionally, we experienced good revenue growth and earnings contribution from our operation in Taiwan. Foreign currency fluctuations favorably affected net premiums and pre-tax operating income by approximately $17.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively. "Our Europe and South Africa segment experienced high claim levels in the UK, which led to a poor segment-wide result for the quarter. Pre-tax net income totaled $2.8 million compared to $17.4 million a year ago and pre-tax operating income totaled $3.3 million versus - more -
Add two $17.4 million last year, a period in which we experienced favorable mortality. For the year, claims levels in the UK were higher-than-expected, but within normal statistical fluctuations. Net premiums for the segment increased 16 percent to $175.2 million. Foreign currency exchange fluctuations favorably affected reported net premiums and pre-tax operating income by approximately $11.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. "The loss in our discontinued accidental and health operation for the quarter includes an increase in claim settlements on particular treaties as we continue to run off that business. The level of unreserved, disputed claims now stands at approximately $8.5 million. We expect to conclude a significant portion of the remaining business in 2008." Woodring continued, "Fourth-quarter results marked the completion of a record year for RGA. Our operating income per share of $5.50 represents an increase of 18 percent over 2006, exceeding the top end of the expectation we set at the beginning of 2007. RGA continues to build its franchise as a preeminent provider in the global life reinsurance market, and we expect the positive trajectory of the last several years to continue. We expect 2008 operating income per share to be within a range of $6.00 to $6.50 per diluted share, representing 14 percent improvement at the midpoint of that range over 2007's strong performance. This rate of growth is consistent with our five-year compound annual growth rate. We expect that growth rate to continue. This guidance assumes an expected level of death claims, which are prone to normal short-term statistical fluctuations that can significantly affect our results on a quarterly and annual basis. We were pleased to achieve a 14 percent return on equity based on operating income, excluding 'accumulated other comprehensive income' in 2007, up from 13 percent in 2006. We expect to maintain the 14 percent return on equity in 2008, and beyond. "We anticipate that net premiums will continue to grow at a brisk pace. On a consolidated basis for 2008, we expect net premiums to increase in a range of 10 to 13 percent. At the segment level, we expect a 7 to 9 percent increase in the U.S., 10 to 12 percent in Canada, 13 to 16 percent in Asia Pacific and 12 to 15 percent in Europe and South Africa. We will continue to exploit significant growth opportunities in select Asian markets such as Japan and South Korea, and will continue our inroads into European markets." Woodring concluded, "It has been an exceptional year for RGA in terms of our operations and financial results. Our business continues to perform well despite the turmoil in the - more -
Add three economy and financial markets and while there is still significant uncertainty, we believe we are well positioned in this market, both operationally and financially. Our balance sheet is solid and our assets are conservatively invested, with approximately 3 percent of our fixed maturity portfolio invested in other than investment grade securities. Our exposure to sub-prime mortgages totaled $267.7 million in book value at year end, or less than 2 percent of total invested assets, of which 82 percent is rated `AA' or above, with 44 percent in the `AAA' category and with no holdings in the non-investment grade category. We largely avoided investing in securities originated in the second half of 2005 and beyond, which we believe was a period of lessened underwriting quality. "We don't expect our results to be significantly affected by the recent news regarding financial guarantors, as we have generally invested in securities where the financial guarantee does not significantly enhance the credit profile of the security. Our fixed maturity and funds withheld portfolios include approximately $683 million in amortized cost of securities that are wrapped by the various financial guarantors, or less than five percent of our total invested assets. The securities are diversified between municipal bonds and asset backed securities with well-diversified collateral pools. We do not invest in any wrapped CDO structures. Our securities are primarily investment-grade credit without the benefit of the financial guarantee. While we may see some increase in unrealized losses associated with these securities in the near term, we don't expect significant realized losses. In addition to these wrapped securities, our investment portfolio includes direct positions in four of the financial guarantors totaling $22.0 million in amortized cost." The company also announced that its board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.09, payable February 25 to shareholders of record as of February 4.

Add six Operating Income RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called 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 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 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 tend to be highly variable, 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, operating income excludes any net gain or loss from discontinued operations and the cumulative effect of any accounting changes, which management believes are not indicative of the company's ongoing operations. The definition of operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income.
