Hanwha Life Insurance (088350.KS): 1Q18: strong underwriting profit, weak growth

  • Parent net income for 1Q18 came in at KRW114.6bn, missing the consensus of KRW136.1bn. Underwriting profit (mortality margin plus expense margin) stayed firm but 1) underwriting net revenue fell because of a decrease in the top-line; and 2) investment income contracted due to a falling investment yield. Nevertheless, improving policy reserve provisions is positive.
