Combined ratio of 90.1 in 1Q24 compared to 92.7 in 1Q23 and underlying combined ratio1 of 88.4 in 1Q24 compared to 88.5 in 1Q23

GROUP BENEFITS

Solid margins in 1Q24

Core earnings margin1 of 6.1% compared with 5.2% in 1Q23 reflecting improved life results, continued strong long-term disability results and higher net investment income

The loss ratio of 73.5% improved 1.7 points from 1Q23 driven by improved mortality trends in group life and continued strong long-term disability claim recoveries, largely offset by higher incidence in Paid Family Leave and short-term disability products

1Q24 fully insured ongoing premiums increased 2%, including an increase in exposure on existing accounts, new business sales and strong but lower persistency compared to a year ago

Expense ratio of 25.4% increased 0.7 points from 1Q23 primarily due to higher staffing costs, increased investments in technology, and higher commission expense, partially offset by the effect of higher earned premiums
