Kansas City Life Announces 1Q Results

KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Kansas City Life Insurance Company recorded net income of $5.2 million or $0.53 per share in the first quarter of 2017, an increase of $0.9 million or $0.09 per share relative to the first quarter of 2016.  The improvement in 2017 primarily resulted from increased premiums, reduced amortization of deferred acquisition costs, and lower operating expenses.  Partially offsetting these were decreases in net investment income and realized investment gains compared to the prior year.  In addition, increases in benefits paid to policyholders were mostly offset by the change in liabilities associated with certain products linked to financial markets.
