Kansas City Life Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

KANSAS CITY, Mo. , Aug. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kansas City Life Insurance Company recorded a net loss of $28.1 million or $2.90 per share in the second quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $4.7 million or $0.49 per share in the second quarter of 2024.  The primary factor in the decrease in net income in the second quarter of 2025 was the establishment of a legal settlement accrual of $35.5 million, net of tax, related to a potential settlement of class action lawsuits. 

Excluding this legal settlement accrual, net income would have been $7.5 million or $0.77 per share in the second quarter of 2025.  After excluding the legal settlement accrual, the improvement over the second quarter of 2024 included higher investment revenues and lower policyholder benefits, partially offset by a decline in insurance revenues.

We recorded a net loss of $26.2 million or $2.71 per share in the first six months of 2025 compared to net income of $6.3 million or $0.65 per share in the first six months of 2024.  The primary factor in the decrease in net income in the first six months of 2025 was the establishment of a legal settlement accrual, as mentioned above. 

Excluding this legal settlement accrual, net income would have been $9.3 million or $0.96 per share in the first six months of 2025.  After excluding the legal settlement accrual, the increase over the first six months of 2024 was primarily due to lower policyholder benefits.  Partially offsetting this were decreases in insurance revenues and investment revenues.
