Aflac Incorporated Announces Second Quarter Results,

Reports Second Quarter Net Earnings of $1.4 Billion,

Declares Third Quarter Cash Dividend

COLUMBUS, Ga. - August 1, 2022 - Aflac Incorporated (NYSE: AFL) today reported its second quarter results.

Total revenues were $5.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, compared with $5.6 billion in the second quarter of 2021. Net earnings were $1.4 billion, or $2.16 per diluted share, compared with $1.1 billion, or $1.62 per diluted share a year ago.

Net earnings in the second quarter of 2022 included net investment gains of $564 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, compared with net investment gains of $89 million, or $0.13 per diluted share a year ago. The net investment gains were driven by net gains from certain derivatives and foreign currency activities of $618 million and net gains from sales and redemptions of $115 million, both driven by foreign exchange. These gains were partially offset by an increase in the allowance associated with the company's estimate of current expected credit losses (CECL) and impairments of $34 million. These net investment gains included a decrease of $135 million in the fair value of equity securities.

Adjusted earnings* in the second quarter were $939 million, compared with $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2021, reflecting a decrease of 13.1%. Adjusted earnings per diluted share* decreased 8.2% to $1.46 in the quarter. It included variable investment income from alternative investments, which was $0.06 per share above return expectations. Adjusted earnings per diluted share excluded adjusted net investment gains* of $0.88 per share. The weaker yen/dollar exchange rate impacted adjusted earnings per share by $0.09.

The average yen/dollar exchange rate in the second quarter of 2022 was 129.39, or 15.4% weaker than the average rate of 109.48 in the second quarter of 2021. For the first six months, the average exchange rate was 122.79, or 12.2% weaker than the rate of 107.79 a year ago.

Total investments and cash at the end of June 2022 were $121.4 billion, compared with $146.7 billion at June 30, 2021. In the second quarter, Aflac Incorporated deployed $650 million in capital to repurchase 11.2 million of its common shares.

The annualized return on average shareholders’ equity in the second quarter was 19.9%.

For the first six months of 2022, total revenues were down 6.7% to $10.7 billion, compared with $11.4 billion in the first half of 2021. Net earnings were $2.4 billion, or $3.73 per diluted share, compared with $2.4 billion, or $3.49 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2021. Adjusted earnings for the first half of 2022 were $1.9 billion, or $2.88 per diluted share, compared with $2.1 billion, or $3.11 per diluted share, in 2021. Excluding the negative impact of $0.15 per share from the weaker yen/dollar exchange rate, adjusted earnings per diluted share decreased 2.9% to $3.02 for the first six months of 2022.

Shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI (or adjusted book value*) was $26.9 billion, or $42.45 per share at June 30, 2022, compared with $25.7 billion, or $38.27 per share, at June 30, 2021. The annualized adjusted return on equity excluding foreign currency impact* in the second quarter was 14.9%.

AFLAC JAPAN

In yen terms, Aflac Japan's net earned premiums were ¥313.2 billion for the quarter, or 4.2% lower than a year ago, mainly due to limited pay products reaching paid-up status and constrained sales from the impact of pandemic conditions. Adjusted net investment income increased 8.4% to ¥94.0 billion, mainly due to higher floating rate income as well as the impact of a weaker yen on the dollar-denominated investment income. Total adjusted revenues in yen declined 1.6% to ¥408.3 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings in yen for the quarter increased 1.6% on a reported basis to ¥111.7 billion, due to higher reserve releases and adjusted net investment income. Pretax adjusted earnings decreased 7.0% on a currency-neutral basis. The pretax adjusted profit margin for the Japan segment increased to 27.4%, compared with 26.5% a year ago.

For the first six months, net earned premiums in yen were ¥629.6 billion, or 4.3% lower than a year ago. Adjusted net investment income increased 7.3% to ¥173.0 billion. Total adjusted revenues in yen were down 2.0% to ¥804.9 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings were ¥211.9 billion, or 4.0% higher than a year ago.

In dollar terms, net earned premiums decreased 19.0% to $2.4 billion in the second quarter. Adjusted net investment income decreased 8.7% to $723 million. Total adjusted revenues declined by 16.8% to $3.2 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings declined 14.3% to $860 million.

For the first six months, net earned premiums in dollars were $5.1 billion, or 15.8% lower than a year ago. Adjusted net investment income decreased 6.3% to $1.4 billion. Total adjusted revenues were down 14.0% to $6.6 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings were $1.7 billion, or 8.9% lower than a year ago.

For the quarter, total new annualized premium sales (sales) decreased 6.4% to ¥12.7 billion, or $98 million, reflecting the January 2021 launch of a new medical product and continued weakness in sales recovery, in part constrained by pandemic conditions. For the first six months, total new sales decreased 10.7% to ¥24.7 billion, or $201 million.

AFLAC U.S.

Aflac U.S. net earned premiums declined 1.0% to $1.4 billion in the second quarter, impacted by lower year-to-date persistency. Adjusted net investment income increased 2.1% to $193 million. Total adjusted revenues were up 0.1% to $1.6 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings were $349 million, 15.5% lower than a year ago, which was driven by higher incurred benefits and elevated expenses reflecting, in part, platform and growth investments. The pretax adjusted profit margin for the U.S. segment was 21.4%, compared with 25.4% a year ago.

For the first six months, net earned premiums declined 0.8% to $2.8 billion. Adjusted net investment income increased 3.0% to $377 million. Total adjusted revenues were up 0.4% to $3.3 billion. Pretax adjusted earnings were $674 million, or 21.5% lower than a year ago.

Aflac U.S. sales increased 15.6% in the quarter to $305 million, reflecting continued investment in growth initiatives as well as productivity gains. For the first half of the year, total new sales increased 17.2% to $604 million.

CORPORATE AND OTHER

For the quarter, total adjusted revenues decreased 16.0% to $42 million. Pretax adjusted earnings were a loss of $75 million, compared with a loss of $76 million a year ago. These results reflect higher adjusted net investment income from higher interest rates offset by lower amortized hedge income and the impact of federal tax credit investments as tax benefits are recognized in a corresponding lower income tax expense. These results also reflect the impact of foreign currency on total net earned premiums and the corresponding benefits.

For the first six months, total adjusted revenues decreased 12.8% to $116 million. Pretax adjusted earnings were a loss of $120 million, compared with a loss of $102 million a year ago.

DIVIDEND

The board of directors declared the third quarter dividend of $0.40 per share, payable on September 1, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 24, 2022.

OUTLOOK

Commenting on the company’s results, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Daniel P. Amos stated: "The company generated solid earnings for the first six months, supported in part by the continuation of low benefit ratios associated with pandemic conditions and better-than-expected returns from alternative investments, despite the weakening yen. We continue to remain cautiously optimistic as our efforts focus on growth and efficiency initiatives amid this evolving pandemic backdrop.

"Looking at our operations in Japan, persistency remained strong in the second quarter, but sales were constrained as we continued to operate in evolving pandemic conditions. This impacted our ability to meet face-to-face with customers, which continues to be key to a recovery in sales. Within this context, we continue to expect stronger sales in the second half of the year assuming that those conditions subside, productivity continues to improve at Japan Post, and we execute on our product introduction and refreshment plans.

"In the U.S., I am pleased with the continued momentum in our core voluntary business and contribution from newly acquired growth platforms of dental, vision, and group benefits. We continue to work toward reinforcing our position and generating stronger sales for the year, while we keep an eye on potential headwinds.

"As always, we are committed to prudent liquidity and capital management. We continue to generate strong investment results while remaining in a defensive position as we monitor evolving economic conditions. In addition, we have taken proactive steps in recent years to defend cash flow and deployable capital against a weakening yen. We treasure our 39-year track record of dividend growth and remain committed to extending it, supported by the strength of our capital and cash flows. At the same time, we remain in the market repurchasing shares with a tactical approach, focused on integrating the growth investments we have made in our platform. By doing so, we look to emerge from this period in a continued position of strength and leadership."

NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This document includes references to the Company’s financial performance measures which are not calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) (non-U.S. GAAP). The financial measures exclude items that the Company believes may obscure the underlying fundamentals and trends in insurance operations because they tend to be driven by general economic conditions and events or related to infrequent activities not directly associated with insurance operations.

Due to the size of Aflac Japan, where the functional currency is the Japanese yen, fluctuations in the yen/dollar exchange rate can have a significant effect on reported results. In periods when the yen weakens, translating yen into dollars results in fewer dollars being reported. When the yen strengthens, translating yen into dollars results in more dollars being reported. Consequently, yen weakening has the effect of suppressing current period results in relation to the comparable prior period, while yen strengthening has the effect of magnifying current period results in relation to the comparable prior period. A significant portion of the Company’s business is conducted in yen and never converted into dollars but translated into dollars for U.S. GAAP reporting purposes, which results in foreign currency impact to earnings, cash flows and book value on a U.S. GAAP basis. Management evaluates the Company's financial performance both including and excluding the impact of foreign currency translation to monitor, respectively, cumulative currency impacts and the currency-neutral operating performance over time. The average yen/dollar exchange rate is based on the published MUFG Bank, Ltd. telegraphic transfer middle rate (TTM).

The company defines the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release as follows:

•Adjusted earnings are adjusted revenues less benefits and adjusted expenses. Adjusted earnings per share (basic or diluted) are the adjusted earnings for the period divided by the weighted average outstanding shares (basic or diluted) for the period presented. The adjustments to both revenues and expenses account for certain items that cannot be predicted or that are outside management’s control. Adjusted revenues are U.S. GAAP total revenues excluding adjusted net investment gains and losses. Adjusted expenses are U.S. GAAP total acquisition and operating expenses including the impact of interest cash flows from derivatives associated with notes payable but excluding any nonrecurring or other items not associated with the normal course of the Company’s insurance operations and that do not reflect the Company's underlying business performance. Management uses adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share to evaluate the financial performance of the Company’s insurance operations on a consolidated basis and believes that a presentation of these financial measures is vitally important to an understanding of the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s insurance business. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share (basic or diluted) are net earnings and net earnings per share, respectively.

•Adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact are computed using the average foreign currency exchange rate for the comparable prior-year period, which eliminates fluctuations driven solely by foreign currency exchange rate changes. Adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact is adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact divided by the weighted average outstanding diluted shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact and adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact important because a significant portion of the Company's business is conducted in Japan and foreign exchange rates are outside management’s control; therefore, the Company believes it is important to understand the impact of translating foreign currency (primarily Japanese yen) into U.S. dollars. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact and adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact are net earnings and net earnings per share, respectively.

•Adjusted return on equity is adjusted earnings divided by average shareholders’ equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Management uses adjusted return on equity to evaluate the financial performance of the Company’s insurance operations on a consolidated basis and believes that a presentation of this financial measure is vitally important to an understanding of the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s insurance business. The Company considers adjusted return on equity important as it excludes components of AOCI, which fluctuate due to market movements that are outside management's control. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted return on equity is return on average equity (ROE) as determined using net earnings and average total shareholders’ equity.

•Adjusted return on equity excluding foreign currency impact is adjusted earnings excluding the current period foreign currency impact divided by average shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI. The Company considers adjusted return on equity excluding foreign currency impact important as it excludes changes in foreign currency and components of AOCI, which fluctuate due to market movements that are outside management's control. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted return on equity excluding foreign currency impact is ROE as determined using net earnings and average total shareholders’ equity.

•Amortized hedge costs/income represent costs/income incurred or recognized as a result of using foreign currency derivatives to hedge certain foreign exchange risks in the Company's Japan segment or in Corporate and other. These amortized hedge costs/ income are estimated at the inception of the derivatives based on the specific terms of each contract and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the hedge. The Company believes that amortized hedge costs/income measure the periodic currency risk management costs/income related to hedging certain foreign currency exchange risks and are an important component of net investment income. There is no comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for amortized hedge costs/ income.

•Adjusted book value is the U.S. GAAP book value (representing total shareholders’ equity), less AOCI as recorded on the U.S. GAAP balance sheet. Adjusted book value per common share is adjusted book value at the period end divided by the ending outstanding common shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted book value and adjusted book value per common share important as they exclude AOCI, which fluctuates due to market movements that are outside management’s control. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted book value and adjusted book value per common share are total book value and total book value per common share, respectively.

•Adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses is adjusted book value plus unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses. Adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses per common share is adjusted book value plus unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses at the period end divided by the ending outstanding common shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses, and its related per share financial measure, important as they exclude certain components of AOCI, which fluctuate due to market movements that are outside management's control; however, it includes the impact of foreign currency as a result of the significance of Aflac’s Japan operation. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses per common share are total book value and total book value per common share, respectively.

•Adjusted net investment income is net investment income adjusted for i) amortized hedge cost/income related to foreign currency exposure management strategies and certain derivative activity, and ii) net interest cash flows from foreign currency and interest rate derivatives associated with certain investment strategies, which are reclassified from net investment gains and losses to net investment income. The Company considers adjusted net investment income important because it provides a more comprehensive understanding of the costs and income associated with the Company’s investments and related hedging strategies. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted net investment income is net investment income.

•Adjusted net investment gains and losses are net investment gains and losses adjusted for i) amortized hedge cost/income related to foreign currency exposure management strategies and certain derivative activity, ii) net interest cash flows from foreign currency and interest rate derivatives associated with certain investment strategies, which are both reclassified to net investment income, and iii) the impact of interest cash flows from derivatives associated with notes payable, which is reclassified to interest expense as a component of total adjusted expenses. The Company considers adjusted net investment gains and losses important as it represents the remainder amount that is considered outside management’s control, while excluding the components that are within management’s control and are accordingly reclassified to net investment income and interest expense. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted net investment gains and losses is net investment gains and losses.

1 U.S. GAAP ROE is calculated by dividing net earnings (annualized) by average shareholders' equity.

2 See separate reconciliation of net income to adjusted earnings.

3 Impact of foreign currency is calculated by restating all foreign currency components of the income statement to the weighted average foreign currency exchange rate for the comparable prior year period. The impact is the difference of the restated adjusted earnings compared to reported adjusted earnings. For comparative purposes, only current period income is restated using the weighted average prior period exchange rate, which eliminates the foreign currency impact for the current period. This allows for equal comparison of this financial measure.

	(1) Invested assets, including cash and short term investments, are stated at amortized cost; except for equities, which are at fair value.
	(2) Net of investment expenses and amortized hedge costs, year-to-date number reflected on a quarterly average basis
	(3) Includes fixed maturity securities, commercial mortgage and other loans, equity securities, and excludes alternative investments in limited partnerships
	(4) Reported on a gross yield basis; excludes investment expenses, external management fees, and amortized hedge costs
	(5) See non-U.S. GAAP financial measures for definition of amortized hedge costs/income. Further, the metrics in this table are split to show the hedging of the market value of a portion of the USD investments in Japan Segment’s "USD Program" in the "Japan Segment Portfolio Allocation by Currency" table on page 13 of this supplement as well as the corporate hedging activities at Aflac Inc.
	(6) Aflac Japan and the Parent Company utilize foreign currency forwards and options to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risk. The hedge cost/income on the table above reflects our FX forward protection of the hedged USD portfolio, and hedge costs on one sided options used as caps, and on tail-risk put options. The table does not include the notional amount and weighted average remaining tenor for these options. At June 30, 2022, Aflac Japan caps and put options notional amount was $13.5 billion with a weighted average remaining tenor of 4.9 months. At June 30, 2022, the Parent Company caps notional amount was $2.0 billion with a weighted average remaining tenor of 7.9 months.
	(7) Notional is reported net of any offsetting positions within Aflac Japan or the Parent Company, respectively.
	(8) Tenor based on period reporting date to settlement date

	(2) See non-U.S. GAAP financial measures for the definition of amortized hedge cost/income

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

The Company defines the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures included in this document as follows:


•			Adjusted book value is the U.S. GAAP book value (representing total shareholders’ equity), less AOCI as recorded on the U.S. GAAP balance sheet. Adjusted book value per common share is adjusted book value at the period end divided by the ending outstanding common shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted book value and adjusted book value per common share important as they exclude AOCI, which fluctuates due to market movements that are outside management’s control. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted book value and adjusted book value per common share are total book value and total book value per common share, respectively.
•			Adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses is adjusted book value plus unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses. Adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses per common share is adjusted book value plus unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses at the period end divided by the ending outstanding common shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses, and its related per share financial measure, important as they exclude certain components of AOCI, which fluctuate due to market movements that are outside management's control; however, it includes the impact of foreign currency as a result of the significance of Aflac’s Japan operation. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses per common share are total book value and total book value per common share, respectively.
•			Adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and pension liability adjustment is adjusted book value plus unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and pension liability adjustment. The Company considers adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and pension liability adjustment important as it excludes certain components of AOCI, which fluctuates due to market movements that are outside management's control; however, it includes the impact of foreign currency as a result of the significance of Aflac’s Japan operation. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted book value including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses and pension liability adjustment is total book value.
•			Adjusted debt is the sum of notes payable, as recorded on the U.S. GAAP balance sheet, excluding 50% of subordinated debentures and perpetual bonds and all pre-funding of debt maturities. The Company considers adjusted debt important as it measures outstanding debt consistently with expectations of the Company’s rating agency stakeholders. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted debt is notes payable.
•			Adjusted debt including 50% of subordinated debentures and perpetual bonds is the sum of notes payable, as recorded on the U.S. GAAP balance sheet, excluding pre-funding of debt maturities. The Company considers adjusted debt including 50% of subordinated debentures and perpetual bonds important as it measures outstanding debt consistently with expectations of the Company’s rating agency stakeholders. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted debt including 50% of subordinated debentures and perpetual bonds is notes payable.


•			Adjusted earnings are adjusted revenues less benefits and adjusted expenses. Adjusted earnings per share (basic or diluted) are the adjusted earnings for the period divided by the weighted average outstanding shares (basic or diluted) for the period presented. The adjustments to both revenues and expenses account for certain items that cannot be predicted or that are outside management’s control. Adjusted revenues are U.S. GAAP total revenues excluding adjusted net investment gains and losses. Adjusted expenses are U.S. GAAP total acquisition and operating expenses including the impact of interest cash flows from derivatives associated with notes payable but excluding any nonrecurring or other items not associated with the normal course of the Company’s insurance operations and that do not reflect the Company's underlying business performance. Management uses adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share to evaluate the financial performance of the Company’s insurance operations on a consolidated basis and believes that a presentation of these financial measures is vitally important to an understanding of the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s insurance business. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share (basic or diluted) are net earnings and net earnings per share, respectively.
•			Adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact are computed using the average foreign currency exchange rate for the comparable prior-year period, which eliminates fluctuations driven solely by foreign currency exchange rate changes. Adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact is adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact divided by the weighted average outstanding diluted shares for the period presented. The Company considers adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact and adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact important because a significant portion of the Company's business is conducted in Japan and foreign exchange rates are outside management’s control; therefore, the Company believes it is important to understand the impact of translating foreign currency (primarily Japanese yen) into U.S. dollars. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for adjusted earnings excluding current period foreign currency impact and adjusted earnings per diluted share excluding current period foreign currency impact are net earnings and net earnings per share, respectively.
•			Amortized hedge costs/income represent costs/income incurred or recognized as a result of using foreign currency derivatives to hedge certain foreign exchange risks in the Company's Japan segment or in Corporate and other. These amortized hedge costs/ income are estimated at the inception of the derivatives based on the specific terms of each contract and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the hedge. The Company believes that amortized hedge costs/income measure the periodic currency risk management costs/income related to hedging certain foreign currency exchange risks and are an important component of net investment income. There is no comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for amortized hedge costs/ income.
•			Adjusted net investment gains and losses are net investment gains and losses adjusted for i) amortized hedge cost/income related to foreign currency exposure management strategies and certain derivative activity, ii) net interest cash flows from foreign currency and interest rate derivatives associated with certain investment strategies, which are both reclassified to net investment income, and iii) the impact of interest cash flows from derivatives associated with notes payable, which is reclassified to interest expense as a component of total adjusted expenses. The Company considers adjusted net investment gains and losses important as it represents the remainder amount that is considered outside management’s control, while excluding the components that are within management’s control and are accordingly reclassified to net investment income and interest expense. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted net investment gains and losses is net investment gains and losses.
•			Adjusted net investment income is net investment income adjusted for i) amortized hedge cost/income related to foreign currency exposure management strategies and certain derivative activity, and ii) net interest cash flows from foreign currency and interest rate derivatives associated with certain investment strategies, which are reclassified from net investment gains and losses to net investment income. The Company considers adjusted net investment income important because it provides a more comprehensive understanding of the costs and income associated with the Company’s investments and related hedging strategies. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted net investment income is net investment income.
•			Adjusted return on equity is adjusted earnings divided by average shareholders’ equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Management uses adjusted return on equity to evaluate the financial performance of the Company’s insurance operations on a consolidated basis and believes that a presentation of this financial measure is vitally important to an understanding of the underlying profitability drivers and trends of the Company’s insurance business. The Company considers adjusted return on equity important as it excludes components of AOCI, which fluctuate due to market movements that are outside management's control. The most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure for adjusted return on equity is return on average equity (ROE) as determined using net earnings and average total shareholders’ equity.

Preliminary note: Forward-Looking Information and Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

Forward-Looking Information

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” to encourage companies to provide prospective information, so long as those informational statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. The company desires to take advantage of these provisions. This transcript contains cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected herein, and in any other statements made by company officials in communications with the financial community and contained in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information and relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Furthermore, forward-looking information is subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements containing words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “goal,” “objective,” “may,” “should,” “estimate,” “intends,” “projects,” “will,” “assumes,” “potential,” “target,” "outlook" or similar words as well as specific projections of future results, generally qualify as forward-looking. Aflac undertakes no obligation to update such forward-looking statements.
