La implementación fue aplazada hasta el 9 de junio y podría ser rescindida.

National Western Life: Announces 2012 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Earnings

AUSTIN, Texas, March 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Ross R. Moody , President of National Western Life Insurance Company (Nasdaq: NWLI), announced today fourth quarter 2012 consolidated net earnings of $25.2 million, or $7.14 per diluted Class A common share, compared with consolidated net earnings of $4.4 million, or $1.23 per diluted Class A common share, for the fourth quarter of 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company reported consolidated net earnings of $92.6 million, or $26.19 per diluted Class A common share, compared with $55.6 million, or $15.73 per diluted Class A common share, a year ago. The Company’s book value per share increased to $382.37 as of December 31, 2012 from $351.27 at December 31, 2011.

Operating revenues, excluding realized gains (losses) on investments and realized and unrealized gains (losses) on index options, increased to $159.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, compared to $154.9 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2011. Operating revenues for the full year increased 4% to $624.3 million in 2012 from $600.0 million in 2011. Mr. Moody noted, «Premium dollars collected during 2012 surpassed $1 billion representing the third consecutive year we have accomplished this feat. Since the financial crisis emerged in 2008, we have been able to produce between $2.5 billion and $3.0 billion of new life insurance coverage each year. This is a solid performance given the backdrop of high domestic unemployment and a global financial slowdown we have encountered during this time frame.»

The Company reported earnings from operations, excluding net realized gains and losses on investments, of $21.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, or $6.20 per diluted Class A common share, compared to $4.7 million, or $1.31 per diluted Class A common share, in the same period for 2011. Commenting on the financial performance of the Company, Mr. Moody observed, «A year ago at this time we reported incremental charges against earnings from additional reserves and amortization of acquisition costs that we believed would put us in a better position going forward. The operating results reported during 2012 have firmly supported that viewpoint. Quarterly earnings from operations in 2012 were very consistent ranging from a low of $19 million to a high of $22 million.» Earnings from operations for the full year of $84.0 million, or $23.76 per diluted Class A common share, represented an increase of 62% over 2011. Reflecting on the full year results, Mr. Moody added, «There are many headwinds in the U.S. and global economies that increase the number of challenges to overcome for a financial services organization like ourselves. However, experience has shown that our strong capital base and conservative financial disciplines have provided the staying power to produce sustainable earnings over time.»

National Western Life Insurance stock upgraded (NWLI)

National Western Life Insurance Stock Upgraded (NWLI)

By TheStreet Wire    07/FEB/12

 

NEW YORK (TheStreet) — National Western Life Insurance (Nasdaq:NWLI) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy. The company’s strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its growth in earnings per share, increase in net income, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, attractive valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had lackluster performance in the stock itself.

Highlights from the ratings report include:

NATIONAL WESTERN LIFE has improved earnings per share by 43.2% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. During the past fiscal year, NATIONAL WESTERN LIFE increased its bottom line by earning $20.04 versus $12.51 in the prior year.

The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Insurance industry. The net income increased by 43.3% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $13.44 million to $19.26 million.

NWLI has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign.

Net operating cash flow has increased to $81.90 million or 44.43% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, NATIONAL WESTERN LIFE has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -13.95%.

 

National Western Life Insurance Company provides life insurance products for the savings and protection needs of policyholders and annuity contracts for the asset accumulation and retirement needs of contract holders. The company has a P/E ratio of 7.5, above the average insurance industry P/E ratio of seven and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. National Western Life has a market cap of $485.5 million and is part of the financial sector and insurance industry. Shares are up 12.7% year to date as of the close of trading on Monday.
