1Q22 Activity Indicators Quality growth

  • Gross revenues1up 1% to Euro 31.3 billion
    • Health revenues up 6% to Euro 4.4 billion
    • P&C Commercial lines Insurance2 revenues up 4% to Euro 10.7 billion
    • Protection revenues up 3% to Euro 4.3billion
  • Solvency II ratio3 at 224%, up 7 points vs. FY21

"AXA performed well in the first quarter of 2022, delivering high-quality revenue growth", said Alban de Mailly Nesle, Chief Financial Officer of AXA. "We continue to see strong performance in our technical and fee-based businesses across the Group."

"Our mix is excellent, with Health revenues growing by 6%, Unit-Linked by 5% and P&C Commercial lines Insurance by 4%, with continued favorable pricing momentum across geographies and notably at AXA XL."

"The Group remains strongly focused on disciplined execution. We have been repositioning our Reinsurance portfolio with Nat Cat exposure already trimmed by 40% across first quarter's renewals, while we continue to deliver a high-quality Life & Savings business mix, with further reduction in traditional G/A."

"We delivered this performance amid the uncertainty from rising geopolitical tensions sparked by the war in Ukraine. As an organization with deep European roots, we are profoundly saddened by the tragic situation in Ukraine. AXA is fully respecting all applicable international sanctions and has stopped underwriting new insurance business with respect to Russian-owned assets located in Russia. While it is too early to provide precise guidance, based on our current assessment and the current scope of the conflict, we currently expect the net underwriting losses from the crisis to be akin to a mid-sized Nat Cat event."

"I would like to warmly thank AXA's employees, agents and partners who have expressed their solidarity and participated in several actions to help address the humanitarian crisis, through donations and volunteering initiatives." 4

"AXA is well positioned against the current uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, with a strong balance sheet including a Solvency II ratio at 224%.Our strategic transformation to move away from financial risks is proving particularly relevant in this environment."

"We remain confident in our ability to execute our strategy, focusing on our core attractive segments, in particular Health, Protection and P&C Insurance where the need for insurance coverage remains strong."

1Q22 key highlights

Revenues

Total revenues were up 1%, reflecting (i) Property & Casualty (+2%), with growth in Commercial lines Insurance2 revenues (+4%) from favorable price effects, partly offset by Nat Cat exposure reduction at AXA XL Reinsurance (-12%); Personal lines revenues grew by 1%, (ii) Health (+6%),with continued growth across most geographies, and (iii) Asset Management(stable), as higher management fees were offset by the non-repeat of elevated performance fees in 1Q21. This was partly offset by (iv) Life & Savings (-3%), as growth in Protection and Unit-linked was more than offset by lower revenues in G/A Savings5 mostly in Italy and Japan.

Solvency

Solvency II ratio3 was 224% at March 31, 2022, up 7 points versus December 31, 2021, resulting mainly from: (i) a strong operating return, net of accrued dividend for 1Q22 (+2 points), (ii) a favorable temporary impact from the change in certain EIOPA risk-free rates relating to the IBOR transition net of the change in the Ultimate Forward Rate (+3 points), (iii) net debt issuance (+2 points), (iv) a Euro 0.5 billion share buy-back(-2 points), and (v) positive financial market effects (+2 points). The financial market effects included higher interest rates (+10 points) across currencies and tenors, and reflecting convexity, and were partly offset by lower equity markets (-2 points), higher inflation (-4 points)reflecting the higher inflation swap curve, and higher implied volatility (-3 points).

The current estimated sensitivities of AXA Group's Solvency II ratio to interest rates are now ca. +5points (vs. +9 points at FY21) for a 50bps increase and ca. –8points (vs. –14 points at FY21) for a 50bps decrease.

3 The Solvency II ratio is estimated primarily using AXA's internal model calibrated based on an adverse 1/200 years shock. It includes a theoretical amount for dividends accrued for the first three months of 2022, based on the full year dividend of Euro 1.54 per share to be paid in 2022 for FY21. Dividends are proposed by the Board, at its discretion based on a variety of factors described i n AXA's 2021 Universal Registration Document, and then submitted to AXA's shareholders for approval. Thi s estimate should not be considered in any way to be an indication of the actual dividend amount, if any, for 2022 financial year.
