Forward Guidance
The company expects net operating income, excluding reportable catastrophes, per diluted share to increase approximately 10 to 14 percent from $9.88 in 2020. Results for 2021 are expected to be driven primarily by growth within Global Lifestyle and a lower Corporate and Other loss, as well as share repurchases.
Positive Outlook
- Growth in net operating income, excluding reportable catastrophes, is expected to be mainly driven by high single-digit growth in Global Lifestyle, with expansion across all lines of business, as well as a lower Corporate and Other loss.
- Global Housing net operating income, excluding reportable catastrophes, is now expected to be roughly flat versus the prior year, as underlying growth is offset by lower REO volumes and an increase in non-catastrophe losses to more normalized levels.
- Adjusted EBITDA, excluding reportable catastrophes, is now expected to grow at a similar rate to net operating income, excluding reportable catastrophes, with double-digit Adjusted EBITDA growth in Global Lifestyle.
- Business segment dividends from Global Lifestyle and Global Housing to approximate segment net operating income, including reportable catastrophes.
- Capital to be deployed to support business growth, fund investments and return capital to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends.
