Strengths

  • High operating margin. 28.8% of revenue is left as operating profit.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 4.7% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $7.7bn.

Things to watch

  • Growth easing. The growth rate is 3.3 points lower than a quarter earlier.
  • Below peers: change in growth rate. Change in growth rate of -3.3pp ranks 17 of 18 life & health insurance companies we cover (median +1.5pp).

Consensus figures average analysts' published estimates (third-party data); guidance is the company's own. Neither is our forecast. Short interest is reported twice a month and lags. Market data may be delayed.
