PARIS, May 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
CNP Assurances, the leading personal insurer in France with operations in the rest of Europe and in Latin America, has presented its quarterly indicators for the first three months of 2016. These indicators were approved for publication by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 10 May 2016.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Premium income of €9.0 billion, up 13.5% like-for-like* (up 8.4% as reported)
- EBIT of €513 million, up 10.8% like-for-like (down 4.7% as reported)
- Attributable net profit of €281 million, up 10.3% like-for-like (up 0.3% as reported)
- The quarter's performance was shaped by an unfavourable basis of comparison on the currency market (the average exchange rate for the Brazilian real declined by 34%) and the equity market (the CAC 40 index lost 13%), as well as by changes in consolidation scope*.
Frédéric Lavenir, CNP Assurances' Chief Executive Officer, said:
"In the first quarter of 2016, CNP Assurances demonstrated its ability to continue to grow in a persistently unfavourable economic environment. Lower European interest rates, which are not favourable to traditional savings and pensions business, confirmed the relevance of our strategic diversification towards unit-linked contracts and personal risk/protection insurance. The agreement to acquire 51% of Pan Seguros and Pan Corretora, this summer's commercial launch of our digital company in Brazil and the ramp-up of CNP Santander Insurance in 10 European countries all contribute to this strategy."
* Average exchange rates:
First-quarter 2016: Brazil: €1 = BRL 4.30; Argentina: €1 = ARS 15.94
First-quarter 2015: Brazil: €1 = BRL 3.22; Argentina: €1 = ARS 9.78
For the determination of like-for-like comparatives, the contributions of CNP BVP (Europe excluding France) and La Banque Postale Prévoyance (France) have been excluded from 2015 figures and the contributions of CNP Caution (France) and the digital company (Brazil) have been excluded from 2016 figures.
- First-quarter 2016 premium income
Consolidated premium income for the quarter came to €9.0 billion, an increase of 8.4% as reported and 13.5% like-for-like versus first-quarter 2015.
Premium income in France amounted to €7.3 billion, an increase of 13.7%. Savings and pensions net new money[1] continued to be driven by the unit-linked business which recorded a net inflow of €656 million, representing considerably more than the €255 million net inflow in traditional contracts. The personal risk/protection business[2] benefited from an increase in term creditor insurance premiums but was adversely affected by the decision to terminate certain employee benefits contracts in order to improve the portfolio's underwriting results.
In Latin America, premium income for the quarter totalled €742 million, representing a like-for-like increase of 20.0%. The pension and personal risk/protection businesses enjoyed strong underlying growth in local currency, despite the challenging macro-economic environment in Brazil. The new digital company is due to start business under the YOUSE brand this summer.
In the Europe excluding France region, premium income rose by 0.4% based on a comparable scope of consolidation, with CNP Santander Insurance reporting premiums up 34.6%. In Italy, CNP UniCredit Vita's unit-linked business was adversely affected by stock market volatility during the quarter. Unit-linked contracts nevertheless accounted for 51% of the region's total savings and pensions premiums.
Reflecting these developments, average technical reserves excluding deferred participation amounted to €321.6 billion, with the 2.1% growth in unit-linked liabilities to €40.7 billion outstripping the 1.9% increase in other technical reserves to €280.9 billion.
2. First-quarter 2016 profit indicators
Net insurance revenue stood at €570 million for the quarter, up 3.8% versus the first quarter of 2015 (20.8% like-for-like).
In France, net insurance revenue rose by 28.2% to €314 million (up 32.3% based on a comparable scope of consolidation). All business segments contributed to the increase and additions to technical reserves were lower than in the comparable period (at €26 million vs. €108 million in first-quarter 2015) due to the slower reduction in regulatory discount rates. In January 2016, CNP Assurances received a €300 million reinsurance commission from Natixis Assurances in respect of the 10% quota-share treaty covering in-force savings and pensions contracts distributed by the Caisses d'Epargne. This revenue may be recognised over time in compliance with policyholder participation rules.
In Latin America, net insurance revenue continued to grow at a healthy rate, rising by 9.2% like-for-like to €206 million.
In Europe excluding France, net insurance revenue came to €50 million, an increase of 26.7% based on a comparable scope of consolidation that was mainly attributable to strong term creditor insurance sales by CNP Santander Insurance.
At €152 million, revenue from own-funds portfolios was weakened by lower returns from bond and money market portfolios due to a decline in interest rates, as well as by the negative currency effect in Latin America and the amortisation of intangible assets recognised on consolidation of CNP Santander Insurance.
Total revenue for the quarter came to €722 million an increase of 8.9% like-for-like (vs. a decline of 4.4% as reported).
[1] French GAAP
[2] Personal risk, health and term creditor insurance
Administrative expenses of €209 million were up 4.3% like-for-like (down 3.7% as reported).
EBIT totalled €513 million, up 10.8% like-for-like (down 4.7% as reported). The Group confirms its objective of delivering average organic EBIT growth of at least 5% per year in the three-year period 2016-2018.
Attributable net profit came to €281 million, an increase of 10.3% like-for-like and 0.3% as reported.
Attributable equity at 31 March 2016 stood at €17,459 million.
The Solvency II coverage ratio (standard formula without applying transitional measures*) at 31 March 2016 is estimated at 175%. The change since 31 December 2015 reflects sensitivities to the economic environment.
* Except for grandfathering of subordinated debt
Subject to the necessary regulatory authorisations being obtained, CNP Assurances' sale to La Banque Postale of its 50% stake in La Banque Postale Prévoyance for €306.9 million (less pre-closing dividends) should be completed in the second or third quarter of 2016. If no pre-closing dividends are received, the sale should generate an after-tax gain of approximately €160 million in the IFRS financial statements, with this amount being included in the 2016 capital gains programme.
