Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 59.2% in the quarter. Net premiums for the quarter included a $1.9 billion contribution from a single premium pension risk transfer transaction in the U.S. Financial Solutions business. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, first quarter investment income increased 7.0%, primarily due to new business. Average investment yield was flat at 4.70% in the first quarter compared with 4.71% in the prior-year period due to higher new money rates offset by lower variable investment income in the first quarter, relative to the year-ago period. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.0% on pre-tax income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.4% on pre-tax adjusted operating income, slightly below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. Tony Cheng, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter was excellent, and we are off to a great start for the year, following a very strong 2023. Our Traditional business performed very well and the Financial Solutions business also had a good quarter. On our in-force transactions, we had a record quarter of $737 million deployed, and we continued to see strong momentum in organic new business activity. “Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $0.6 billion. Based on favorable business conditions and RGA's global leadership position, we are optimistic about the future and expect to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.” SEGMENT RESULTS U.S. and Latin America Traditional Quarterly Results ($ in millions) 2024 2023 Net premiums $ 1,715 $ 1,615 Pre-tax income 116 121 Pre-tax adjusted operating income 128 122 Pre-tax adjusted operating income, excluding notable items 128 122 Quarterly Results Results reflected favorable Individual Life claims experience, as well as favorable Health and Group experience.

Additionally, the Company posts periodic reports, press releases and other useful information on its Investor Relations website. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Definitions Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (the “Company”) discloses certain financial measures that are not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company principally uses such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating performance because the Company believes that such measures, when reviewed in conjunction with relevant U.S. GAAP measures, present a clearer picture of our operating performance and assist the Company in the allocation of its resources. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results of operations, financial statements and the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s businesses by excluding specified items which may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. These measures should be considered supplementary to the Company’s financial results that are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures. Consequently, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this document or in other public disclosures made by the Company from time to time: 1. Adjusted operating income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, and adjusted operating income per diluted share. The Company uses these measures as a basis for analyzing financial results because the Company believes that such measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations. Adjusted operating income is calculated as net income available to the Company’s shareholders (or, in the case of pre-tax adjusted operating income, income before income taxes) excluding, as applicable: substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses; changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives; changes in the fair value of contracts that provide market risk benefits; non-economic losses at contract inception for direct pension risk transfer single premium business (which are amortized into adjusted operating income within claims and other policy benefits over the estimated lives of the contracts); any net gain or loss from discontinued operations; the cumulative effect of any accounting changes; the impact of certain tax-related items; and any other items that the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations as such items can be volatile and may not reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s business. In addition, adjusted operating income per diluted share is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. These measures also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. 2. Adjusted operating income (on a pre-tax and after-tax basis), excluding notable items. Notable items are items the Company believes may not be indicative of its ongoing operating performance which are excluded from adjusted operating income to provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results. Such items may be unexpected, unknown when the Company prepares its business plan or otherwise. Notable items presented may include the financial impact of the Company’s assumption reviews on business subject to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts” and related amendments, reflected in future policy benefits remeasurement gains or losses. 3. Adjusted operating revenue. This measure excludes the effects of net realized capital gains and losses, and changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives. 4. Shareholders’ equity position excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, and book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI. The Company believes that these measures provide useful information since such measures exclude AOCI-related items that are not permanent and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, and may not reflect the impact of the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses on shareholders’ equity and book value per share. AOCI primarily relates to changes in interest rates, credit spreads on its investment securities, future policy benefits discount rate measurement gains (losses), market risk benefits instrument-specific credit risk remeasurement gains (losses) and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and B36, where B36 refers to the cumulative change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and notable items; and Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. 5. Adjusted operating return on equity. This measure is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Adjusted operating return on equity also serves as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and B36; Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and notable items, which is calculated as adjusted operating income excluding notable items divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding notable items and AOCI; and Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. Reconciliations of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures (to the extent disclosed in this document) to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the Appendix at the end of this document. Other definitions: Uncapped (profitable) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio under 100% Capped (loss) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio equal to or greater than 100% Floored cohorts: cohorts with reserves floored at zero as reserves cannot be negative Change in Presentation: U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions In the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the presentation of the financial results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment by combining the financial results for “Asset Intensive” and “Capital Solutions” businesses. This change in presentation better aligns the presentation of the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment’s financial results with the Company’s management of these businesses and with reporting for the other Financial Solutions segments. This change in presentation did not affect any previously or expected future reported results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment.

Constant currency amounts reflect foreign denominated activity translated to U.S. dollars at a constant exchange rate. Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE: RGA), a leading global provider of life and health reinsurance, reported first quarter net income available to RGA shareholders of $210 million, or $3.16 per diluted share, compared with $252 million, or $3.72 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted operating income* for the first quarter totaled $401 million, or $6.02 per diluted share, compared with $349 million, or $5.16 per diluted share, the year before. Net foreign currency fluctuations had a favorable effect of $0.07 per diluted share on net income available to RGA shareholders, and $0.01 per diluted share on adjusted operating income as compared with the prior year.

Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 59.2% in the quarter. Net premiums for the quarter included a $1.9 billion contribution from a single premium pension risk transfer transaction in the U.S. Financial Solutions business. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, first quarter investment income increased 7.0%, primarily due to new business. Average investment yield was flat at 4.70% in the first quarter compared with 4.71% in the prior-year period due to higher new money rates offset by lower variable investment income in the first quarter, relative to the year-ago period. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.0% on pre-tax income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.4% on pre-tax adjusted operating income, slightly below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. Tony Cheng, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter was excellent, and we are off to a great start for the year, following a very strong 2023. Our Traditional business performed very well and the Financial Solutions business also had a good quarter. On our in-force transactions, we had a record quarter of $737 million deployed, and we continued to see strong momentum in organic new business activity. “Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $0.6 billion. Based on favorable business conditions and RGA's global leadership position, we are optimistic about the future and expect to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.” SEGMENT RESULTS U.S. and Latin America Traditional Quarterly Results ($ in millions) 2024 2023 Net premiums $ 1,715 $ 1,615 Pre-tax income 116 121 Pre-tax adjusted operating income 128 122 Pre-tax adjusted operating income, excluding notable items 128 122 Quarterly Results Results reflected favorable Individual Life claims experience, as well as favorable Health and Group experience.

The Company has posted to its website an earnings presentation and a Quarterly Financial Supplement that includes financial information for all segments as well as information on its investment portfolio. Additionally, the Company posts periodic reports, press releases and other useful information on its Investor Relations website. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Definitions Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (the “Company”) discloses certain financial measures that are not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company principally uses such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating performance because the Company believes that such measures, when reviewed in conjunction with relevant U.S. GAAP measures, present a clearer picture of our operating performance and assist the Company in the allocation of its resources. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results of operations, financial statements and the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s businesses by excluding specified items which may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. These measures should be considered supplementary to the Company’s financial results that are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures. Consequently, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this document or in other public disclosures made by the Company from time to time: 1. Adjusted operating income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, and adjusted operating income per diluted share. The Company uses these measures as a basis for analyzing financial results because the Company believes that such measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations. Adjusted operating income is calculated as net income available to the Company’s shareholders (or, in the case of pre-tax adjusted operating income, income before income taxes) excluding, as applicable: substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses; changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives; changes in the fair value of contracts that provide market risk benefits; non-economic losses at contract inception for direct pension risk transfer single premium business (which are amortized into adjusted operating income within claims and other policy benefits over the estimated lives of the contracts); any net gain or loss from discontinued operations; the cumulative effect of any accounting changes; the impact of certain tax-related items; and any other items that the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations as such items can be volatile and may not reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s business. In addition, adjusted operating income per diluted share is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. These measures also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. 2. Adjusted operating income (on a pre-tax and after-tax basis), excluding notable items. Notable items are items the Company believes may not be indicative of its ongoing operating performance which are excluded from adjusted operating income to provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results. Such items may be unexpected, unknown when the Company prepares its business plan or otherwise. Notable items presented may include the financial impact of the Company’s assumption reviews on business subject to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts” and related amendments, reflected in future policy benefits remeasurement gains or losses. 3. Adjusted operating revenue. This measure excludes the effects of net realized capital gains and losses, and changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives. 4. Shareholders’ equity position excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, and book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI. The Company believes that these measures provide useful information since such measures exclude AOCI-related items that are not permanent and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, and may not reflect the impact of the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses on shareholders’ equity and book value per share. AOCI primarily relates to changes in interest rates, credit spreads on its investment securities, future policy benefits discount rate measurement gains (losses), market risk benefits instrument-specific credit risk remeasurement gains (losses) and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and B36, where B36 refers to the cumulative change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and notable items; and Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. 5. Adjusted operating return on equity. This measure is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Adjusted operating return on equity also serves as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and B36; Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and notable items, which is calculated as adjusted operating income excluding notable items divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding notable items and AOCI; and Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. Reconciliations of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures (to the extent disclosed in this document) to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the Appendix at the end of this document. Other definitions: Uncapped (profitable) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio under 100% Capped (loss) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio equal to or greater than 100% Floored cohorts: cohorts with reserves floored at zero as reserves cannot be negative Change in Presentation: U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions In the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the presentation of the financial results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment by combining the financial results for “Asset Intensive” and “Capital Solutions” businesses. This change in presentation better aligns the presentation of the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment’s financial results with the Company’s management of these businesses and with reporting for the other Financial Solutions segments. This change in presentation did not affect any previously or expected future reported results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment.

Adjusted operating income* for the first quarter totaled $401 million, or $6.02 per diluted share, compared with $349 million, or $5.16 per diluted share, the year before.

Excluding the net foreign currency effect, consolidated net premiums increased 59.2% in the quarter. Net premiums for the quarter included a $1.9 billion contribution from a single premium pension risk transfer transaction in the U.S. Financial Solutions business. Compared with the year-ago period, excluding spread-based businesses, first quarter investment income increased 7.0%, primarily due to new business. Average investment yield was flat at 4.70% in the first quarter compared with 4.71% in the prior-year period due to higher new money rates offset by lower variable investment income in the first quarter, relative to the year-ago period. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.0% on pre-tax income, below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 22.4% on pre-tax adjusted operating income, slightly below the expected range of 23% to 24%, primarily due to tax benefits received in foreign jurisdictions. Tony Cheng, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our first quarter was excellent, and we are off to a great start for the year, following a very strong 2023. Our Traditional business performed very well and the Financial Solutions business also had a good quarter. On our in-force transactions, we had a record quarter of $737 million deployed, and we continued to see strong momentum in organic new business activity. “Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the quarter with excess capital of approximately $0.6 billion. Based on favorable business conditions and RGA's global leadership position, we are optimistic about the future and expect to continue to deliver attractive financial results over time.” SEGMENT RESULTS U.S. and Latin America Traditional Quarterly Results ($ in millions) 2024 2023 Net premiums $ 1,715 $ 1,615 Pre-tax income 116 121 Pre-tax adjusted operating income 128 122 Pre-tax adjusted operating income, excluding notable items 128 122 Quarterly Results Results reflected favorable Individual Life claims experience, as well as favorable Health and Group experience.

The Company has posted to its website an earnings presentation and a Quarterly Financial Supplement that includes financial information for all segments as well as information on its investment portfolio. Additionally, the Company posts periodic reports, press releases and other useful information on its Investor Relations website. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Definitions Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (the “Company”) discloses certain financial measures that are not determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company principally uses such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating performance because the Company believes that such measures, when reviewed in conjunction with relevant U.S. GAAP measures, present a clearer picture of our operating performance and assist the Company in the allocation of its resources. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results of operations, financial statements and the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s businesses by excluding specified items which may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. These measures should be considered supplementary to the Company’s financial results that are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way the Company calculates such measures. Consequently, the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this document or in other public disclosures made by the Company from time to time: 1. Adjusted operating income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, and adjusted operating income per diluted share. The Company uses these measures as a basis for analyzing financial results because the Company believes that such measures better reflect the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the Company’s continuing operations. Adjusted operating income is calculated as net income available to the Company’s shareholders (or, in the case of pre-tax adjusted operating income, income before income taxes) excluding, as applicable: substantially all of the effect of net investment related gains and losses; changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives; changes in the fair value of contracts that provide market risk benefits; non-economic losses at contract inception for direct pension risk transfer single premium business (which are amortized into adjusted operating income within claims and other policy benefits over the estimated lives of the contracts); any net gain or loss from discontinued operations; the cumulative effect of any accounting changes; the impact of certain tax-related items; and any other items that the Company believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations as such items can be volatile and may not reflect the underlying performance of the Company’s business. In addition, adjusted operating income per diluted share is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. These measures also serve as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. 2. Adjusted operating income (on a pre-tax and after-tax basis), excluding notable items. Notable items are items the Company believes may not be indicative of its ongoing operating performance which are excluded from adjusted operating income to provide investors and other third parties with a better understanding of the Company’s results. Such items may be unexpected, unknown when the Company prepares its business plan or otherwise. Notable items presented may include the financial impact of the Company’s assumption reviews on business subject to the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts” and related amendments, reflected in future policy benefits remeasurement gains or losses. 3. Adjusted operating revenue. This measure excludes the effects of net realized capital gains and losses, and changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives. 4. Shareholders’ equity position excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”), shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, and book value per share excluding the impact of AOCI. The Company believes that these measures provide useful information since such measures exclude AOCI-related items that are not permanent and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, and may not reflect the impact of the underlying performance of the Company’s businesses on shareholders’ equity and book value per share. AOCI primarily relates to changes in interest rates, credit spreads on its investment securities, future policy benefits discount rate measurement gains (losses), market risk benefits instrument-specific credit risk remeasurement gains (losses) and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and B36, where B36 refers to the cumulative change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI and notable items; and Shareholders’ average equity position excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. 5. Adjusted operating return on equity. This measure is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI. Adjusted operating return on equity also serves as a basis for establishing target levels and awards under the Company’s management incentive programs. The Company also discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and B36; Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI and notable items, which is calculated as adjusted operating income excluding notable items divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding notable items and AOCI; and Adjusted operating return on equity excluding AOCI, B36 and notable items. Reconciliations of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures (to the extent disclosed in this document) to the most comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the Appendix at the end of this document. Other definitions: Uncapped (profitable) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio under 100% Capped (loss) cohorts: cohorts with a net premium ratio equal to or greater than 100% Floored cohorts: cohorts with reserves floored at zero as reserves cannot be negative Change in Presentation: U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions In the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the presentation of the financial results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment by combining the financial results for “Asset Intensive” and “Capital Solutions” businesses. This change in presentation better aligns the presentation of the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment’s financial results with the Company’s management of these businesses and with reporting for the other Financial Solutions segments. This change in presentation did not affect any previously or expected future reported results for the U.S. and Latin America Financial Solutions segment.
