We also further successfully reduced the size of and risk associated with the CBVA block this quarter, while ensuring we provide options and value to our customers.
"In addition, we repurchased $247 million of our common stock in the first quarter and we entered into an agreement to buyback an additional $150 million of shares," added Martin.

First-Quarter 2017 Results |
Net Income Available to Common Shareholders
Voya Financial's net income available to common shareholders includes the effect of the company's CBVA hedge program - which focuses on protecting regulatory and rating agency capital from market movements, rather than minimizing GAAP earnings volatility - as well as net investment gains and losses, among other items.
1Q 2017 net loss available to common shareholders was $144 million or $0.75 per diluted share, compared with net income available to common shareholders of $192 million or $0.92 per diluted share in 1Q 2016. The decline was primarily due to a $433 million decrease in CBVA income before income taxes.
Operating Earnings
Voya Financial's operating earnings include results from the company's Retirement, Investment Management, Annuities, Individual Life and Employee Benefits segments, as well as Corporate.
1Q 2017 after-tax operating earnings were $157 million or $0.81 per diluted share, compared with $115 million or $0.55 per diluted share, in 1Q 2016. The following items primarily accounted for this change:
