Primerica, Inc. announced unaudited earnings results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. For the quarter, the company's total revenues were $308.4 million compared with $286.6 million a year ago. Income before income taxes was $60.2 million compared with $63.5 million a year ago.

Operating income before income taxes was $60.96 million compared with $64.4 million a year ago. Net operating income was $39.3 million compared with $42.4 million a year ago. Results reflect a year-over-year decline in net investment income, which was impacted by its repurchase of 9.5 million shares throughout 2012 and a lower current yield on invested assets related to the accumulation of cash for the excess capital distribution from PLIC to Primerica, Inc. Net operating income was also impacted by an increase in legal fees and expenses, higher interest expense due to the execution of the redundant reserve financing in March 2012 and increases in premium-related and employee-related expenses compared with the first quarter of 2012. Diluted operating earnings per share were $0.66 compared with $0.62 a year ago. Net income return on stockholders' equity was 12.0% compared with 12.3% a year ago.
