Fair value estimate

How the range is computed

Financials model (residual income). Same residual-income model as the base: cost of equity 9.5% ±1 point and return on equity 11.4% ±2 points. Bear = 10.5% and 9.4%; bull = 8.5% and 13.4%. A model estimate from public filings, not a forecast of where the price will go.

$217.01−18% vs price
Bear$152.80
Base$217.01
Bull$313.80

Price sits inside the range.

What the price implies To be worth today’s price, RGA would need a return on equity of about 13% a year; our estimate uses 11%.

Risk vs market

How risk vs market is measured

One year of daily returns (Oct 30 to Oct 30, 252 sessions). Beta = how much RGA moved for each 1% move in the S&P 500 (SPY); 1.0 moves with the market. Volatility is the yearly standard deviation of daily returns. Past behavior, not a forecast.

Low

Has moved mostly independently of the market, but its own price swings are 1.8× the S&P 500’s (it moves on its own news).

Market ValueAverage paid since the Aug 6 filing, 60 trading days
$252.66price +5%
Fair value estimateFinancials model (residual income): book value plus excess returns, discounted
$217.0118% downside

Financials model (residual income): book value $173.75 a share on Jun 30, 2026, plus the earnings above a 9.5% cost of equity. ROE 11.4%, the average of 13.9% for the trailing 12 months to Jun 30, 2026 and 8.8% over fiscal 2021–2025, on average common equity; payout 27% of earnings (dividends 16% + net buybacks 11%), so book grows by the retained rest; the return above 9.5% fades halfway toward 9.5% over 10 years, then grows at 3% (terminal value).
