Allstate's strong execution capabilities benefited second quarter results and position us for continued success," said Tom Wilson, Chair, President and CEO of The Allstate Corporation. "Revenues grew by 12% from the prior year to $15.7 billion for the quarter reflecting increased insurance premiums and higher investment income. Almost 2 million customer claims were handled in the quarter to help rebuild lives after storms, accidents and device breakage. The Property-Liability profit improvement plan progressed resulting in an underlying combined ratio* of 85.3. Protection Services and the Health and Benefits businesses also generated strong results. As a result, net income applicable to common shareholders was $301 million with adjusted net income* of $1.61 per diluted common share."

"Allstate's strategy of providing affordable, simple and connected protection resulted in strong policy growth in National General branded property-liability insurance and Allstate protection plans sold by retailers. National General's policies in force increased by 12% over the prior year quarter and it is now one of the largest personal lines insurers serving the independent agent channel. Total Property-Liability policies in force declined by 0.8% reflecting fewer Allstate brand auto insurance policies as increased new business did not offset customer retention losses. Protection Plans policies in force increased by 9% with written premium of $518 million in the quarter, due to higher sales through US retailers and expansion of mobile phone protection plans in Europe. Allstate's Transformative Growth plan, broad protection offerings and extensive distribution is expected to create additional shareholder value," concluded Wilson.

Second Quarter 2024 Results

Total revenues of $15.7 billion in the second quarter of 2024 were $1.7 billion higher than the prior year quarter driven by increased Property-Liability earned premium.
Net income applicable to common shareholders was $301 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to a net loss of $1.4 billion in the prior year quarter, as Property-Liability underwriting results improved. Adjusted net income* was $429 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net loss* of $1.2 billion in the prior year quarter.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Property-Liability earned premiums of $13.3 billion increased 11.9% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher average premiums from rate increases. The underwriting loss of $145 million in the quarter was $1.9 billion better than a $2.1 billion loss in the prior year quarter.

Premiums written increased 13.1% compared to the prior year quarter driven by increases for Allstate brand of 10.0% and National General of 29.1%.

Underwriting loss in the second quarter of 2024 of $145 million improved from a $2.1 billion loss in the prior year quarter, due to increased premiums earned, improved underlying loss experience and lower catastrophe losses.

Property-Liability combined ratio was 101.1 for the quarter and 97.1 for the first six months of 2024. The underlying combined ratio* was 85.3 in the second quarter, improving 7.6 points compared to the prior year, as higher earned premiums, improved underlying loss experience and operating efficiencies were partially offset by increased advertising expenses.

Allstate Protection auto insurance results reflect execution of a comprehensive plan to restore margins through higher rates, lower expenses, underwriting actions and claims process enhancements. Profitability improvement enabled increased growth investment in rate adequate states and risk segments.

⁽¹⁾ Investment expenses are not allocated between market-based and performance-based portfolios with the exception of investee level expenses.

Total return on the investment portfolio was 0.7% for the second quarter of 2024 and 5.3% for the latest twelve months.
Market-based investment income was $667 million in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $131 million, or 24.4%, compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting higher yields in the $52.6 billion fixed income portfolio. Fixed income duration was 5.0 years as of June 30, 2024, 0.2 years above prior year end and 1.6 years higher than year end 2022. Investment portfolio allocations, including fixed income duration and equity risk levels, are informed by expected risk adjusted returns and the enterprise risk and return position.
Performance-based investment income totaled $107 million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $20 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily reflecting lower real estate investment results. The portfolio allocation to performance-based assets provides a diversifying source of higher long-term returns, and volatility in reported results is expected.
Net losses on investments and derivatives were $103 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $151 million in the prior year quarter. Net losses in the second quarter of 2024 were driven by sales of fixed income securities.
Unrealized net capital losses were $1.2 billion or $152 million adverse to the prior quarter as higher interest rates resulted in lower fixed income valuations.

Proactive Capital Management

"Operating and financial performance in the second quarter reinforces Allstate's ability to successfully execute the profit improvement plan while accelerating the implementation of the Transformative Growth strategy. Financial condition and capital position remain strong with statutory surplus in the insurance companies of $16.0 billion and $3.0 billion of assets held at the holding company. The sale of the Health and Benefits business is progressing, validating the attractiveness of these businesses. Allstate has the financial flexibility, liquidity and capital resources to continue to accelerate Transformative Growth," said Jess Merten, Chief Financial Officer.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures

We believe that investors' understanding of Allstate's performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Adjusted net income is net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, excluding:

Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives
Pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses
Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles
Gain or loss on disposition
Adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items, when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, or (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years
Related income tax expense or benefit of these items

Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders is the GAAP measure that is most directly comparable to adjusted net income.

We use adjusted net income as an important measure to evaluate our results of operations. We believe that the measure provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company's ongoing performance because it reveals trends in our insurance and financial services business that may be obscured by the net effect of net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses, amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles, gain or loss on disposition and adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or unusual items and the related tax expense or benefit of these items. Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, and pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Gain or loss on disposition is excluded because it is non-recurring in nature and the amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles is excluded because it relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying business results or trends. Non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of our business or economic trends. Accordingly, adjusted net income excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period and highlights the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability of our business. A byproduct of excluding these items to determine adjusted net income is the transparency and understanding of their significance to net income variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. Adjusted net income is used by management along with the other components of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders to assess our performance. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to evaluate net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, adjusted net income and their components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing and evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income results in their evaluation of our and our industry's financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the Company and management's performance. We note that the price to earnings multiple commonly used by insurance investors as a forward-looking valuation technique uses adjusted net income as the denominator. Adjusted net income should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

The following tables reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss). Taxes on adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss) generally use a 21% effective tax rate.

Adjusted net income (loss) return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is a ratio that uses a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by dividing the rolling 12-month adjusted net income by the average of Allstate common shareholders' equity at the beginning and at the end of the 12-months, after excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses. Return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. We use adjusted net income as the numerator for the same reasons we use adjusted net income, as discussed previously. We use average Allstate common shareholders' equity excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses for the denominator as a representation of common shareholders' equity primarily applicable to Allstate's earned and realized business operations because it eliminates the effect of items that are unrealized and vary significantly between periods due to external economic developments such as capital market conditions like changes in equity prices and interest rates, the amount and timing of which are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. We use it to supplement our evaluation of net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and return on Allstate common shareholders' equity because it excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and that it provides a valuable tool for investors when considered along with return on Allstate common shareholders' equity because it eliminates the after-tax effects of realized and unrealized net capital gains and losses that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and that are driven by economic developments, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by management. In addition, it eliminates non-recurring items that are not indicative of our ongoing business or economic trends. A byproduct of excluding the items noted above to determine adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity from return on Allstate common shareholders' equity is the transparency and understanding of their significance to return on common shareholders' equity variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods. We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity in incentive compensation. Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to have adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity and return on Allstate common shareholders' equity when evaluating our performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize adjusted net income return on common shareholders' equity results in their evaluation of our and our industry's financial performance and in their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement of the industry and the company and management's utilization of capital. We also provide it to facilitate a comparison to our long-term adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity goal. Adjusted net income return on Allstate common shareholders' equity should not be considered a substitute for return on Allstate common shareholders' equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.

The following tables reconcile return on Allstate common shareholders' equity and adjusted net income (loss) return on Allstate common shareholders' equity.

Combined ratio excluding the effect of catastrophes, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles ("underlying combined ratio") is a non-GAAP ratio, which is computed as the difference between four GAAP operating ratios: the combined ratio, the effect of catastrophes on the combined ratio, the effect of prior year non-catastrophe reserve reestimates on the combined ratio, and the effect of amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles on the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors, and it is used by management to reveal the trends in our Property-Liability business that may be obscured by catastrophe losses, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles. Catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year reserve reestimates are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves, which could increase or decrease current year net income. Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying insurance business results or trends. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our underwriting performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of our business.

The following tables reconcile the respective combined ratio to the underlying combined ratio. Underwriting margin is calculated as 100% minus the combined ratio.
