ALLIANZ ACHIEVES RECORD PROFITS IN FIRST HALF 2024

GROUP FULLY ON TRACK FOR FULL-YEAR OUTLOOK, POWERED BY STRONG FUNDAMENTALS

2Q 2024:

 

  • Total business volume advances 7.6 percent to 42.6 billion euros
  • Operating profit reaches 3.9 billion euros driven by good results in all segments
  • Shareholders’ core net income stable at 2.5 billion euros

6M 2024:

  • Operating profit increases by 5.3 percent to 7.9 billion euros driven by all segments
  • Shareholders’ core net income advances 7.7 percent to 5.0 billion euros
  • Strong Solvency II capitalization ratio of 206 percent1

Outlook:

  • 2024 operating profit target affirmed at 14.8 billion euros, plus or minus 1 billion euros

Other:

  • Share buy-back of 1 billion euros executed by the end of July 2024
  • Decision to expand the total volume of the share buy-backs in the financial year 2024 to a total of 1.5 billion euros
  • Allianz has therefore resolved to repurchase additional shares in a volume of up to 500 million euros


”Allianz delivered strong results in the first six months of the year and we are confident in our ability to achieve our full-year ambitions.

 

Our performance demonstrates the core strengths and resilience of our company, particularly as our results were achieved amid significant natural catastrophe activity in the second quarter – and notably in our home market. The way that Allianz responded to our customers affected by the floods in Germany reflected the best possible blend of compassion, speed, and expertise. Teams enabled by digital claims processing tools visited nearly all affected properties within two weeks of the event, which reassured our customers and limited damages.

 

These excellent property and casualty outcomes were complemented by strong delivery in our life/health, and asset management segments, demonstrating how we translate our customer-centric strategy into resilient earnings growth.”

- Oliver Bäte, Chief Executive Officer of Allianz SE


 

 


 

 

Total business volume

 

2Q 2024: Total business volume rose by 7.6 percent to 42.6 billion euros. This increase was driven by strong momentum across all business segments.

 

Adjusted for foreign currency translation and consolidation effects, internal growth was 8.8 percent. The Property-Casualty segment was the main driver, but all business segments contributed positively.

 

6M 2024: Total business volume increased by 6.4 percent to 91.0 billion euros. All business segments contributed to this growth.

 

Adjusted for foreign currency translation and consolidation effects, internal growth was 7.5 percent.

 
 

Earnings

 

2Q 2024: Operating profit was very good at 3.9 (2Q 2023: 3.8) billion euros. All segments contributed to this result. The Property-Casualty business showed a strong underlying performance which largely offset the impact of elevated natural catastrophes.

Shareholders’ core net income was stable at 2.5 (2.5) billion euros.

Net income attributable to shareholders rose to 2.5 (2.3) billion euros driven by operating profit growth, and higher non-operating result.

6M 2024: Operating profit was strong at 7.9 (6M 2023: 7.5) billion euros, up by 5.3 percent, driven by all business segments. The Life/Health segment achieved widespread growth across most regions. In Asset Management, higher AuM-driven revenues were the main drivers while the Property-Casualty business benefited from strong growth and underlying performance.

Shareholders’ core net income advances 7.7 percent to 5.0 billion euros.

Net income attributable to shareholders increased by 14.2 percent to 5.0 (4.4) billion euros driven by operating profit growth, and higher non-operating result.

Core earnings per share (EPS)3 was 12.57 (6M 2023: 11.40) euros.

The annualized core return on equity (RoE)3 was 17.5 percent (full year 2023: 16.1 percent).

The share buy-back program of up to 1 billion euros, announced on February 22, 2024, has been executed by the end of July 2024. The Board of Management has decided to expand the total volume of the share buy-backs in the financial year 2024 to a total of 1.5 billion euros and has therefore resolved to repurchase additional shares in a volume of up to 500 million euros.

 

Solvency II capitalization ratio

 

The Solvency II capitalization ratio was 206 percent4 at the end of second quarter 2024 compared with 203 percent at the end of the first quarter 2024.

“Allianz’s results for the second quarter and the consistency of our performance confirm our sustained momentum and the resilience of our business model.

  • In our Property-Casualty segment, we achieved a very good operating profit. This shows our ability to deliver strong results even as we were impacted by severe natural catastrophes in particular in Germany. Our continuous focus on productivity is as well supporting our performance.
  • We have reached an excellent operating profit in our Life/Health operations. Our strong new business generation and a healthy new business margin speak for the attractiveness of our products.
  • In Asset Management, continued net inflows of 14.1 billion euros in the second quarter bring our net inflows for the first half to 48.4 billion euros. Our third-party assets under management exceeded 1.8 trillion euros for the first time since 1Q 2022. This is a good basis for future profit growth.

We look with confidence to the second half of 2024 and affirm our outlook for an operating profit of 14.8 billion euros plus or minus 1 billion euros for the full year.”

- Claire-Marie Coste-Lepoutre, Chief Financial Officer of Allianz SE

2Q 2024: Total business volume increased by 9.4 percent to 19.3 (17.6) billion euros. Adjusted for foreign currency translation and consolidation effects, internal growth was 10.5 percent.

The combined ratio amounted to 93.5 percent (92.2 percent).

Asset Management: Good operating profit and strong net inflows

The main driver were net inflows of 14.1 billion euros with further positive contribution from favorable foreign currency translation effects.

Total assets under management rose to 2.309 trillion euros at the end of the second quarter of 2024, up 12 billion euros from the end of the first quarter 2024 in line with the results for the third-party assets under management.

 

6M 2024: Operating revenues increased to 4.0 billion euros, up 5.1 percent adjusted for foreign currency translation effects. The increase was largely driven by higher AuM-driven revenues.


Operating profit rose to 1.5 (1.4) billion euros, up 6.3 percent. Adjusted for foreign currency translation effects, operating profit increased by 6.5 percent. The cost-income ratio (CIR) improved to 61.8 percent (62.3 percent).

Please note: The figures are presented in millions of Euros, unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding, numbers presented may not add up precisely to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
1_ Presents the portion of shareholders’ net income before non-operating market movements and before amortization of intangible assets from business combinations (including any related income tax effects).
2_ Calculated by dividing the respective period’s shareholders' core net income, adjusted for net financial charges related to undated subordinated bonds classified as shareholders' equity, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (basic core EPS).
3_ Represents the annualized ratio of shareholders’ core net income to the average shareholders’ equity at the beginning and at the end of the period. Shareholders’ core net income is adjusted for net financial charges related to undated subordinated bonds classified as shareholders’ equity. From the average shareholders’ equity, undated subordinated bonds classified as shareholders’ equity, unrealized gains and losses from insurance contracts and other unrealized gains and losses are excluded. Annualized figures are not a forecast for full year numbers. For 6M 2023, the core return on equity for the respective full year is shown. Due to an adjustment of prior periods comparative figures for the balance sheet, the core RoE changed by +0.1%-p compared to the published figure as of 31 December 2023.
4_ Excluding non-controlling interests. In 1Q 2024 Allianz reclassified certain minority interests between equity and liabilities. Prior periods comparative figures for the balance sheet have been adjusted with a minor impact on shareholders’ equity only (reduced by EUR 0.2bn as of 31 December 2023).
5_ Risk capital figures are group diversified at 99.5% confidence level. Solvency II capitalization ratio is based on quarterly dividend accrual; additional accrual to reflect FY dividend would impact solvency II capitalization ratio by -6%-p as of 30 June 2024.
