RGA shares are trading higher after the company announced a reinsurance transaction with Equitable Holdings.

Global life and health reinsurance entity Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGA#NYSE">RGA</a>) shares are <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading higher in premarket</a> on Monday.
The company has reached an agreement with Equitable Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQH#NYSE">EQH</a>) to reinsure a wide <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43907362/rga-announces-reinsurance-transaction-with-equitable-holdings" rel="noreferrer noopener">range of life insurance products</a>.
Under the terms of the deal, RGA is reinsuring&nbsp;75%&nbsp;of Equitable&#8217;s in-force life insurance liabilities. The block includes approximately&nbsp;$18 billion&nbsp;of general account reserves and&nbsp;$14 billion&nbsp;of separate account reserves.
This deal is set up to allow RGA to invest $1.5 billion in capital at the closing. It is expected to generate returns within RGA&#8217;s projected range, while also providing a notable increase in the company&#8217;s adjusted operating earnings per share.
Furthermore, the agreement expands RGA&#8217;s partnership with Equitable across various sectors, including underwriting, product creation, distribution, and investment management.
&#8220;This partnership is an example of our capacity to provide creative solutions and technical expertise that support both sides of the balance sheet, and it is a prime example of how the execution of our Creation Re strategy can address our clients&#8217; current and future needs,&#8221; said Executive Vice President, Head of the Americas, RGA, Ron Herrmann.

The deal is expected to contribute around $70 million to adjusted operating income before taxes in 2025. This amount is anticipated to increase to between $160 million and $170 million in 2026, eventually stabilizing at around $200 million each year thereafter.
&#8220;Our strong financial position enables us to capitalize on this opportunity with Equitable, and the transaction is expected to meaningfully contribute to RGA&#8217;s earnings per share, with anticipated attractive returns on capital,&#8221; said Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, RGA, Axel André.
RGA intends to fund the transaction with surplus capital and, if necessary, proceeds from debt financing, contingent on market conditions. The transaction is set to close in mid-2025, pending regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions.
The deal is expected to create more than $2 billion in value for Equitable Holdings, encompassing a favorable ceding <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43907593" rel="noreferrer noopener">commission and the release of capital.</a>
Also, Equitable plans to execute $500 million of incremental share repurchases, above the company&#8217;s 60-70% payout ratio target, following the close of the transaction.
Additionally, Equitable announced its intention to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43907646" rel="noreferrer noopener">increase its ownership stake in AB</a> through a tender offer to purchase up to $1.8 billion of units of AllianceBernstein Holding L.P. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AB#NYSE">AB</a>)
Price Action: RGA shares are trading higher by 3.55% at $196.11 in premarket at the last check Monday.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Reinsurance Gr's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Reinsurance Gr's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 1.75%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Analysts may attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter.
In addition to their assessments, some analysts extend their insights by offering predictions for key metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates. This supplementary information provides further guidance for traders. It is crucial to recognize that, despite their specialization, analysts are human and can only provide forecasts based on their beliefs.
