What's in the Cards for Everest Re (RE) This Earnings Season?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Everest Re Group is slated to report fourth-quarter 2021 earnings on Feb 9, after market close. The company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 3.88% in the last reported quarter.
Factors to Consider
Premium growth is likely to have benefited from improved economic conditions, exposure growth, new business opportunities, favorable double-digit rate environment and high renewal retention.
The Insurance segment is likely to have benefited from increases in specialty casualty business, professional liability business and short-tail business, including property.
The Reinsurance segment is likely to have been aided by increases in most lines of business, notably casualty pro-rata business, casualty excess of loss business and property catastrophe excess of loss business, as well as the positive impact of foreign exchange rate movement.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for premiums earned is pegged at $2.8 billion, indicating an increase of 15.7% from the year-ago reported figure.
Net investment income is likely to have benefited from an increase in limited partnership income, higher income from other alternative investments and higher reported net asset values. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for net investment income is pegged at $235 million, indicating an increase of 5.8% from the year-ago reported figure.
Improved pricing and a not-so-active catastrophe environment are likely to have aided underwriting profitability.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Everest Re’s fourth-quarter earnings is currently pegged at $9.23 per share. It had reported a loss of $1.12 per share in the year-ago period.
