Kansas City Life Announces First Quarter 2025 Results

This result included a $4.2 million or 6% decrease in policyholder benefits, net of reinsurance, and a  $0.9 million or 3% decline in operating expenses in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024.  In addition, we recorded an income tax benefit of $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to an income tax expense of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2024.  The increased tax benefit resulted from a one-time tax benefit recorded in the first quarter of 2025.  Partially offsetting these, insurance revenues decreased $3.1 million or 4% and total investment revenues decreased $5.3 million or 13%, largely due to a change in the fair value of certain investments compared to the prior year.
