In periods where a net loss or adjusted
net loss is reported, weighted average shares for basic earnings
per share is used for calculating diluted earnings per share
because all dilutive potential common shares are anti-dilutive and
are therefore excluded from the calculation.
(2)
Includes premiums written for the Allstate
Protection and Protection Services segments and premiums and
contract charges for the Health and Benefits segment.

Allstate’s strong execution capabilities benefited second
quarter results and position us for continued success,” said Tom
Wilson, Chair, President and CEO of The Allstate Corporation.
“Revenues grew by 12% from the prior year to $15.7 billion for the
quarter reflecting increased insurance premiums and higher
investment income. Almost 2 million customer claims were handled in
the quarter to help rebuild lives after storms, accidents and
device breakage. The Property-Liability profit improvement plan
progressed resulting in an underlying combined ratio* of 85.3.
Protection Services and the Health and Benefits businesses also
generated strong results. As a result, net income applicable to
common shareholders was $301 million with adjusted net income* of
$1.61 per diluted common share.”
“Allstate’s strategy of providing affordable, simple and
connected protection resulted in strong policy growth in National
General branded property-liability insurance and Allstate
protection plans sold by retailers. National General’s policies in
force increased by 12% over the prior year quarter and it is now
one of the largest personal lines insurers serving the independent
agent channel. Total Property-Liability policies in force declined
by 0.8% reflecting fewer Allstate brand auto insurance policies as
increased new business did not offset customer retention losses.
Protection Plans policies in force increased by 9% with written
premium of $518 million in the quarter, due to higher sales through
US retailers and expansion of mobile phone protection plans in
Europe. Allstate’s Transformative Growth plan, broad protection
offerings and extensive distribution is expected to create
additional shareholder value,” concluded Wilson.
Second Quarter 2024 Results
- Total revenues of $15.7 billion in the second quarter of 2024
were $1.7 billion higher than the prior year quarter driven by
increased Property-Liability earned premium.
- Net income applicable to common shareholders was $301 million
in the second quarter of 2024 compared to a net loss of $1.4
billion in the prior year quarter, as Property-Liability
underwriting results improved. Adjusted net income* was $429
million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net
loss* of $1.2 billion in the prior year quarter.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Property-Liability earned premiums of $13.3 billion
increased 11.9% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the prior
year quarter, primarily driven by higher average premiums from rate
increases. The underwriting loss of $145 million in the quarter was
$1.9 billion better than a $2.1 billion loss in the prior year
quarter.

- Premiums written increased 13.1% compared to the prior year
quarter driven by increases for Allstate brand of 10.0% and
National General of 29.1%.
- Underwriting loss in the second quarter of 2024 of $145 million
improved from a $2.1 billion loss in the prior year quarter, due to
increased premiums earned, improved underlying loss experience and
lower catastrophe losses.

97.1 for the first six months of 2024. The underlying combined
ratio* was 85.3 in the second quarter, improving 7.6 points

underlying loss experience and operating efficiencies were
partially offset by increased advertising expenses.
- Allstate Protection auto insurance results reflect
execution of a comprehensive plan to restore margins through higher
rates, lower expenses, underwriting actions and claims process
enhancements. Profitability improvement enabled increased growth
investment in rate adequate states and risk segments.

- Earned and written premiums grew 11.8% and 12.3% compared to
the prior year quarter, respectively. The increase was driven by
higher average premium from rate increases, partially offset by a
decline in policies in force of 1.6%.
- Allstate brand policies in force decreased by 4.5% compared to
prior year quarter as increased new business was offset by customer
retention losses.
- National General policies in force increased by 11.7% due to
growth in specialty vehicle insurance and the expansion of the
Custom360℠ products to middle market customers.
- Allstate brand auto rate increases were implemented in 21

an annualized total brand premium impact of 1.0% in the quarter.
National General auto rate increases were implemented in 27
locations in the second quarter at an average of 11.2%, resulting
in an annualized total brand premium impact of 2.0% in the
quarter.
- The recorded auto insurance combined ratio of 95.9 in the
second quarter of 2024 was 12.4 points lower than the prior year
quarter, reflecting higher earned premiums, improved underlying
loss experience, favorable prior year reserve reestimates and
operating efficiencies.
- Allstate brand auto insurance recorded combined ratio of 96.9
in the second quarter of 2024 decreased 11.2 points compared to
prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher average earned
premiums outpacing moderating underlying loss costs per
policy.
- National General auto insurance recorded combined ratio of 91.9
in the second quarter of 2024 was 17.9 points below the prior year
quarter, reflecting lower unfavorable prior year non-catastrophe
reserve reestimates and improved underlying results.
- Prior year non-catastrophe reserve reestimates were favorable
$171 million in the second quarter, reflecting favorable Allstate
brand reserve development, primarily driven by physical damage
coverages.
- The underlying combined ratio* of 93.5 improved by 8.7 points
compared to the prior year quarter from higher average premium and
moderating loss trends.
- Allstate Protection homeowners insurance growth reflects
higher average premiums and growth in policies in force.
Underwriting loss of $375 million improved compared to a $1.3
billion loss in the prior year quarter driven by an improvement in
underlying performance and lower catastrophe losses. The recorded
combined ratio for the first six months of 2024 was 97.1 which
generated $189 million of underwriting income compared to an
underwriting loss of $1.8 billion during the same period in
2023.

provider capacity and lower costs.
- Arity revenue of $52 million increased $17 million
compared to the prior year quarter, due to higher advertising

- Total return on the investment portfolio was 0.7% for
the second quarter of 2024 and 5.3% for the latest twelve
months.
- Market-based investment income was $667 million in the
second quarter of 2024, an increase of $131 million, or 24.4%,
compared to the prior year quarter, reflecting higher yields in the
$52.6 billion fixed income portfolio. Fixed income duration was 5.0
years as of June 30, 2024, 0.2 years above prior year end and 1.6
years higher than year end 2022. Investment portfolio allocations,
including fixed income duration and equity risk levels, are
informed by expected risk adjusted returns and the enterprise risk
and return position.
- Performance-based investment income totaled $107
million in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $20 million
compared to the prior year quarter primarily reflecting lower real
estate investment results. The portfolio allocation to
performance-based assets provides a diversifying source of higher
long-term returns, and volatility in reported results is
expected.
- Net losses on investments and derivatives were $103
million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $151 million in
the prior year quarter. Net losses in the second quarter of 2024
were driven by sales of fixed income securities.
- Unrealized net capital losses were $1.2 billion or $152
million adverse to the prior quarter as higher interest rates
resulted in lower fixed income valuations.
Proactive Capital Management
“Operating and financial performance in the second quarter
reinforces Allstate’s ability to successfully execute the profit
improvement plan while accelerating the implementation of the
Transformative Growth strategy. Financial condition and capital
position remain strong with statutory surplus in the insurance
companies of $16.0 billion and $3.0 billion of assets held at the
holding company. The sale of the Health and Benefits business is
progressing, validating the attractiveness of these businesses.
Allstate has the financial flexibility, liquidity and capital
resources to continue to accelerate Transformative Growth,” said
Jess Merten, Chief Financial Officer.

Allstate’s results, including a webcast of its quarterly conference
call and the call presentation. The conference call will be at 9
a.m. ET on Thursday, August 1. Financial information, including

Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures
We believe that investors’ understanding of Allstate’s
performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP
measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ
from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may
be limited.
Adjusted net income is net income (loss) applicable to
common shareholders, excluding:
- Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives
- Pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and
losses
- Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles
- Gain or loss on disposition
- Adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or
unusual items, when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such
that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, or (b)
there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two
years
- Related income tax expense or benefit of these items
Net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders is the GAAP
measure that is most directly comparable to adjusted net
income.
We use adjusted net income as an important measure to evaluate
our results of operations. We believe that the measure provides
investors with a valuable measure of the Company’s ongoing
performance because it reveals trends in our insurance and
financial services business that may be obscured by the net effect
of net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, pension and
other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses, amortization
or impairment of purchased intangibles, gain or loss on disposition
and adjustments for other significant non-recurring, infrequent or
unusual items and the related tax expense or benefit of these
items. Net gains and losses on investments and derivatives, and
pension and other postretirement remeasurement gains and losses may
vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by
business decisions and external economic developments such as
capital market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the
insurance underwriting process. Gain or loss on disposition is
excluded because it is non-recurring in nature and the amortization
or impairment of purchased intangibles is excluded because it
relates to the acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of
our underlying business results or trends. Non-recurring items are
excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of our
business or economic trends. Accordingly, adjusted net income
excludes the effect of items that tend to be highly variable from
period to period and highlights the results from ongoing operations
and the underlying profitability of our business. A byproduct of
excluding these items to determine adjusted net income is the
transparency and understanding of their significance to net income
variability and profitability while recognizing these or similar
items may recur in subsequent periods. Adjusted net income is used
by management along with the other components of net income (loss)
applicable to common shareholders to assess our performance. We use
adjusted measures of adjusted net income in incentive compensation.
Therefore, we believe it is useful for investors to evaluate net
income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, adjusted net
income and their components separately and in the aggregate when
reviewing and evaluating our performance. We note that investors,
financial analysts, financial and business media organizations and
rating agencies utilize adjusted net income results in their
evaluation of our and our industry’s financial performance and in
their investment decisions, recommendations and communications as
it represents a reliable, representative and consistent measurement
of the industry and the Company and management’s performance. We
note that the price to earnings multiple commonly used by insurance
investors as a forward-looking valuation technique uses adjusted
net income as the denominator. Adjusted net income should not be
considered a substitute for net income (loss) applicable to common
shareholders and does not reflect the overall profitability of our
business.
The following tables reconcile net income (loss) applicable to
common shareholders and adjusted net income (loss). Taxes on
adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) applicable to common
shareholders and adjusted net income (loss) generally use a 21%
effective tax rate.

_____________ (1)
In periods where a net loss or adjusted
net loss is reported, weighted average shares for basic earnings
per share is used for calculating diluted earnings per share
because all dilutive potential common shares are anti-dilutive and
are therefore excluded from the calculation.

Relates to settlement costs for

Adjusted net income (loss) return on Allstate common
shareholders’ equity is a ratio that uses a non-GAAP measure.
It is calculated by dividing the rolling 12-month adjusted net
income by the average of Allstate common shareholders’ equity at
the beginning and at the end of the 12-months, after excluding the
effect of unrealized net capital gains and losses. Return on
Allstate common shareholders’ equity is the most directly
comparable GAAP measure. We use adjusted net income as the
numerator for the same reasons we use adjusted net income, as
discussed previously. We use average Allstate common shareholders’
equity excluding the effect of unrealized net capital gains and
losses for the denominator as a representation of common
shareholders’ equity primarily applicable to Allstate's earned and
realized business operations because it eliminates the effect of
items that are unrealized and vary significantly between periods
due to external economic developments such as capital market
conditions like changes in equity prices and interest rates, the
amount and timing of which are unrelated to the insurance
underwriting process. We use it to supplement our evaluation of net
income (loss) applicable to common shareholders and return on
Allstate common shareholders’ equity because it excludes the effect
of items that tend to be highly variable from period to period. We
believe that this measure is useful to investors and that it
provides a valuable tool for investors when considered along with
return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity because it
eliminates the after-tax effects of realized and unrealized net
capital gains and losses that can fluctuate significantly from
period to period and that are driven by economic developments, the
magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by
management. In addition, it eliminates non-recurring items that are
not indicative of our ongoing business or economic trends. A
byproduct of excluding the items noted above to determine adjusted
net income return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity from
return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity is the transparency
and understanding of their significance to return on common
shareholders’ equity variability and profitability while
recognizing these or similar items may recur in subsequent periods.
We use adjusted measures of adjusted net income return on Allstate
common shareholders’ equity in incentive compensation. Therefore,
we believe it is useful for investors to have adjusted net income
return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity and return on
Allstate common shareholders’ equity when evaluating our
performance. We note that investors, financial analysts, financial
and business media organizations and rating agencies utilize
adjusted net income return on common shareholders’ equity results
in their evaluation of our and our industry’s financial performance
and in their investment decisions, recommendations and
communications as it represents a reliable, representative and
consistent measurement of the industry and the company and
management’s utilization of capital. We also provide it to
facilitate a comparison to our long-term adjusted net income return
on Allstate common shareholders’ equity goal. Adjusted net income
return on Allstate common shareholders’ equity should not be
considered a substitute for return on Allstate common shareholders’
equity and does not reflect the overall profitability of our
business.

shareholders’ equity and adjusted net income (loss) return on

Combined ratio excluding the effect of catastrophes, prior
year reserve reestimates and amortization or impairment of
purchased intangibles (“underlying combined ratio”) is a
non-GAAP ratio, which is computed as the difference between four
GAAP operating ratios: the combined ratio, the effect of
catastrophes on the combined ratio, the effect of prior year
non-catastrophe reserve reestimates on the combined ratio, and the
effect of amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles on
the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to
investors, and it is used by management to reveal the trends in our
Property-Liability business that may be obscured by catastrophe
losses, prior year reserve reestimates and amortization or
impairment of purchased intangibles. Catastrophe losses cause our
loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of
their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a
significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year reserve
reestimates are caused by unexpected loss development on historical
reserves, which could increase or decrease current year net income.
Amortization or impairment of purchased intangibles relates to the
acquisition purchase price and is not indicative of our underlying
insurance business results or trends. We believe it is useful for
investors to evaluate these components separately and in the
aggregate when reviewing our underwriting performance. The most
directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The
underlying combined ratio should not be considered a substitute for
the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting
profitability of our business.
The following tables reconcile the respective combined ratio to
the underlying combined ratio. Underwriting margin is calculated as
100% minus the combined ratio.
