On November 2, 2022, Lincoln National released its third quarter 2022 financial results, reporting a net loss of $2.6 billion for the quarter. This was compared to a net income of $318 million for the third quarter of 2021 the previous year. The Company explained “[t]he current quarter’s adjusted operating results included net unfavorable notable items of $2.0 billion, or $11.62 per share, related to the company’s annual review of DAC [i.e., deferred acquisition cost] and reserve assumptions.” The Company also disclosed that it “incurred a $634 million goodwill impairment to the life insurance business.” On this news, the price of Lincoln National shares declined by $17.27, or approximately 33.2%, to close at $34.83 per share on November 3, 2022.

According to the lawsuit, Lincoln National failed to disclose that: (1) the Company was experiencing a decline in its VUL business; (2) that, as a result, the goodwill associated with the life insurance business was overstated; (3) that, as a result, the Company’s policy lapse assumptions were outdated; (4) that, as a result, the Company’s reserves were overstated; and (5) that, as a result, the Company’s reported financial results and financial statements were misstated.

Elrod of Kirby McInerney LLP by email at investigations@kmllp.com, or by filling out this CONTACT FORM, to discuss your rights or interests with respect to these matters without any cost to you.
