Fortune uses revenue reported on a statutory accounting basis to rank companies for inclusion on the Fortune 500 list. Because of that, the numbers differ from the GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) numbers typically cited in our annual report.
Western & Southern finished 2019 with record results in total revenue, net income, life and health premiums, and annuity sales. This solid performance was significantly aided by the successful integration of Gerber Life Insurance Company into our family of companies. We remain one of the strongest life insurance groups in the world. Our net worth at the end of April 2020 was $10.3 billion, and our capital-to-asset ratio of 17.8 percent is more than double the average capital-to-asset ratio of the 15 largest publicly traded life insurers doing business in the U.S.
