Meanwhile, Primerica recently reported its third-quarter 2026 financial results, beating Wall Street's expectations. The company reported adjusted diluted earnings per share of $6.77, which is 5.78% higher than anticipated, and revenue of $902 million, slightly above the estimated $892 million.

This performance is attributed to a 19% increase in sales of Primerica's investment and savings products and the return of $159 million to shareholders through buybacks and dividends. Management remains optimistic about the future, expecting improved conditions for sales force growth and new initiatives in 2027. Despite some challenges in the term life insurance segment, Primerica's diverse business model has proven resilient.

The company's fee-based investment products have played a significant role in its performance, with adjusted operating revenue rising by 8% year-over-year, and adjusted net operating income increasing by 2% to $209 million.
