SAGICOR FINANCIAL CORPORATION LIMITED
CHAIRMAN'S REVIEW
The Sagicor Group recorded another solid performance for the
first three months to March 31, 2018. Group net income closed the
period at US $38.9 million against a prior year result of US $27.0
million. Net income attributable to shareholders was US $19.9
million compared to the prior year result of US $16.7 million, an
increase of 19%.
During the first three months of the year Sagicor Group adopted
two new accounting standards which became effective from January 1,
2018. IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers was adopted,
and affects how income is recognised on contracts by companies.
IFRS 9, Financial instruments, was also adopted, this accounting
standard changes the way that financial instruments are recognised
and measured. The standard introduces new measurement categories
for financial instruments and an expected credit loss model for
impairment. There was no significant impact on the implementation
of both standards on the net assets of the Company.
Total revenue for the Group amounted to US $296.6 million,
against a prior year amount of US $282.5 million, an increase of
5%. Revenue included a one-time gain of US $5.3 million on the
acquisition of the British American insurance portfolio from the
Government of Barbados. Benefits were US $132.1 million, compared
to US $138.4 million for the previous year, a reduction of 5%.
Expenses were US $117.6 million, compared to US $115.1 million for
the same period in the prior year, an increase of 2%.
Group comprehensive income was US $17.0 million, compared to US
$32.2 million for the prior year. Shareholder comprehensive income
was US $5.8 million, compared to US $20.6 million for the prior
year. The decline in comprehensive income was mainly due to
marked-to-market losses on our international bond portfolio.
In the statement of financial position as at March 31, 2018,
assets amounted to US $6.9 billion, and liabilities amounted to US
$5.9 billion. Group equity was US $931.7 million, compared to US $
939.6 million at December 31, 2017, Shareholders' equity was US
$622.9 million, compared to US $626.9 million at December 31, 2017.
The Group's debt was US $407.1 million with a debt to capital ratio
of 30.4%, compared to 30.7% at December 31, 2017.
On behalf of the Board of Sagicor, I wish to thank our
Shareholders and Customers for their continued support.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
---------------------------------------------------------
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These condensed interim financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the accounting
policies set out in note 2 of the December 31,
2017 audited financial statements, except for
the adoption of IFRS 15 - 'Revenue from Contracts
with Customers' and IFRS 9 - 'Financial Instruments',
which replaces the provisions of IAS 39 - 'Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'. These
standards became effective from January 1, 2018.
IFRS 9 replaces the guidance in IAS 39, 'Financial
instruments: recognition and measurement'. IFRS
9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement
model and establishes three primary measurement
categories for financial assets: amortized cost,
fair value through other comprehensive income
("FVOCI") and fair value through profit and loss
("FVPL"). The basis of classification depends
on the entity's business model and the contractual
cash flow characteristics of the financial asset.
Classification for debt instruments is driven
by the entity's business model for managing the
financial assets and whether the contractual cash
flows represent solely payments of principal and
interest ("SPPI"). If a debt instrument is held
to collect, it may be carried at amortised cost
if it also meets the SPPI requirement. Debt instruments
that meet the SPPI requirement that are held in
a portfolio where an entity both holds to collect
assets' cash flows and sells assets may be classified
as FVOCI. Financial assets that do not contain
cash flows that are SPPI must be measured at FVPL.
Investments in equity instruments are always measured
at fair value. However, management can make an
irrevocable election to present changes in fair
value in other comprehensive income, provided
the instrument is not held for trading. If the
equity instrument is held for trading, changes
in fair value are presented in profit or loss.The
impairment requirements apply to financial assets
measured at amortised cost and FVOCI, lease receivables
and certain loan commitments and financial guarantee
contracts. At initial recognition, an allowance
is required for expected credit losses ('ECL')
resulting from default events that are possible
within the next 12 months ('12-month ECL'). In
the event of a significant increase in credit
risk, allowance is required for ECL resulting
from all possible default events over the expected
life of the financial instrument ('lifetime ECL').
Financial assets where 12-month ECL is recognised
are considered to be 'stage 1'; financial assets
which are considered to have experienced a significant
increase in credit risk are in 'stage 2'; and
financial assets for which there is objective
evidence of impairment are considered to be in
default or otherwise credit impaired are in 'stage
3'. Any adjustment on the initial adoption of
this standard impacts returned earnings.
---------------------------------------------------------
2. RESTATEMENTS
Effective January 1, 2018 the Group implemented
a policy to harmonise its actuarial reserving
practices across operational segments. This is
a voluntary change in policy and was reflected
as a prior period adjustment in accordance with
IAS 8. The impact of this change was an increase
in opening equity at March 2017 of US $6.2 million
and in increase in net income for March 2017 of
US $0.2 million.
Net income of the discontinued operaton and assets
of the discontinued operation were adjusted by
US $4.3 million to reflect the share of income
for 2017 attributable to the first three months
of 2017.
Actuarial reserves (benefits) for the first quarter
of 2017 was adjusted by US $1.6 million along
with associated taxes of US $0.5 million relating
to various actuarial changes attributable to the
period.
