Solid performance at the Global Housing segment, as well as growth in Global Lifestyle, is likely to have aided the third-quarter performance of Assurant.
Revenues are likely to have gained from improved net earned premiums and higher net investment income.
Net earned premiums are expected to have benefited from higher premiums in the Global Housing and Global Lifestyle segments.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter net earned premiums, fees and other income is pegged at $2.5 billion. We expect net earned premiums to increase 4.6% to $2.5 billion in the to-be-reported quarter. Fees and other income are expected to increase 10.9% to $486.9 million in the third quarter.
Net investment income is expected to have been driven by higher yields and assets in fixed maturity securities. The upside is likely to have been partially offset by reduced income in real estate joint ventures and lower yields and balances in cash and cash equivalents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter net investment income is pegged at $131 million. We expect net investment income to be $125.1 million.
Global Housing is expected to have been driven by Homeowners’ top-line growth, including growth in policies in force and higher average premiums within lender-placed and growth across various specialty products within Homeowners. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the segment’s third-quarter revenues is pegged at $711 million, suggesting growth of 11.8% from the year-ago quarter’s level. We expect the segment’s revenues to be $703.1 million.
Global Lifestyle is likely to have benefited from Connected Living growth, driven by higher contributions from global mobile protection and trade-in programs and a new program within financial services. Global Automotive results are likely to have benefited from improved loss experience. The Zacks Consensus Estimate and our estimate for the segment’s third-quarter revenues are both pegged at $2.4 billion, suggesting growth of 4.8% from the year-ago quarter’s level. We expect the segment’s revenues to be $2.4 billion.
Total benefits, losses and expenses might have escalated because of higher underwriting and selling, general and administrative expenses. We expect total expenses to be $2.8 billion.
Continued share buybacks are likely to have aided the bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter.
