Aviva plc

Interim management statement for the three months to 31 March 2014

15 May 2014

Aviva plc First Quarter 2014

Interim Management Statement

Mark Wilson, Group Chief Executive Officer, said:

"Aviva's overall performance in the first quarter was reassuringly calm and stable, in marked contrast to the weather and regulatory developments. The value of new business increased by 13% - the sixth consecutive quarter of year-on-year growth - and our book value grew by 6%.

"We have made further progress simplifying our portfolio of businesses. Since our full year results in March, we have announced disposals of our Turkish general insurance business, US asset management boutique River Road, South Korean joint venture as well as a significant restructure of our Italian business.

"Aviva still faces challenges both in the external environment and in the business as we progress our turnaround. The regulatory environment is constantly changing and soft conditions persist in certain general insurance lines. As a business we remain focused on cash flow, expense efficiency and the clinical allocation of capital to areas where we can maximise returns. There is still much to do."

Group Chief Executive Officer's report

Overview

Aviva's overall performance in the first quarter was reassuringly calm and stable, in marked contrast to the weather and regulatory developments.

Value of new business increased by 45%¹ in Europe and 96%¹ in Asia, more than offsetting a 22% decline in the UK. The Group combined operating ratio (COR) was 97.7% and IFRS book value increased 6% to 286p per share.

Since our FY13 results in March, we have announced disposals of our US asset management boutique River Road, South Korean joint venture and Turkish general insurance business as well as a significant restructure of our Italian business. Our group is now simpler, easier to manage and more focused, whilst retaining significant benefits of diversification.

Aviva still faces challenges in both the external environment and in the business as we progress our turnaround. The regulatory environment is constantly evolving and soft conditions in certain general insurance lines persist. We are adapting to these issues and look forward to sharing more of our strategy with you at our upcoming analyst day on 9 July.

Value of new business

n Value of new business up 13% in local currency

n Increase driven by Europe and Asia

Value of new business (VNB) is our key measure of growth in life insurance. In the first three months of the year VNB improved 13%^1,2 to £228 million (1Q13: £208 million) due to strong performances across Europe and Asia, partly offset by a decline in UK Life. This is our sixth consecutive quarter of year-on-year VNB growth.

Performance in our cash generators has been mixed. In the UK, VNB declined 22% with annuity VNB 43% lower at £40 million (1Q13: £70 million), mostly due to our re-pricing actions and a relatively strong first quarter of 2013. Some of the decline in annuity VNB has been offset by increases in protection and equity release. Going forward, we expect our increased focus on mid-size bulk purchase annuity transactions to partially mitigate the impact of the Budget proposals. In France, VNB increased 34%¹ to £54 million as a result of changes in product mix. This reinforces our view that growth is possible and rewarding in mature markets.

There has been tangible progress in our turnaround businesses with Italy², Spain² and Ireland collectively growing VNB 100% to £26 million. Our extended distribution agreements with Unicredit and UBI should improve Italian margins going forward and progress in simplifying this business is ahead of plan.

Our growth markets of Poland and Asia grew VNB 108%¹ and 96%^1,2 respectively while Turkey VNB declined 21%¹ due to market volatility. Overall VNB in our growth markets increased by 73%¹ and now contributes 26% of the group's total VNB (1Q13: 19%).

Operating Capital Generation

n Operating capital generation stable
at £0.4 billion

n Update on cash remittances at half year

Operating capital generation (OCG) in the first quarter of 2014 was £0.4 billion (1Q13: £0.4 billion), with improved OCG in Europe offset by higher weather losses in Canada and the UK.

The UK Life OCG was stable, despite 21% lower annuity sales, which have generated positive new business strain in the recent past.

We are focussed on improving the cash remittances and will update on this at the half year.

Combined
operating ratio

n COR of 97.7%, impacted by worse weather

In general insurance, the combined operating ratio (COR) deteriorated to 97.7% (1Q13: 95.5%) reflecting the worse weather in 1Q14.

In the UK, the COR of 98.6% was only 50bps worse year-on-year, despite the flooding in January. The Canadian COR increased to 102.7% (1Q13: 92.7%), as a result of the harsh winter impacting North America, which resulted in £40 million of additional weather-related claims.

In Europe, the COR improved to 92.0% (1Q13: 93.7%). France's combined ratio was broadly stable at 91% while improved claims experience in Poland and greater expense efficiency in Italy drove better results in these markets.

Net written premiums in general and health insurance were 6% lower at £2,083 million (1Q13: £2,220 million). UK GI net written premiums were down 8% as we continue to take a disciplined underwriting approach in the face of softening rates, in particular in personal motor. There is an optimal balance between volume and efficiency and achieving this is critical.

Canada net written premiums grew by 5% in constant currency, reflecting growth in Western Canada, improved retention in personal lines and rate increases in commercial lines. The weakening of the Canadian dollar resulted in Canadian NWP declining 9% to £426 million (1Q13: £470 million). Our French general insurance and health business continues to grow steadily, up 5% in constant currency to £412 million (1Q13: £401 million).

Balance sheet

n IFRS net asset value per share up 6% to 286p

The IFRS net asset value per share increased by 6% to 286p (FY13: 270p). Profits in the period and an increase in our pension surplus were partially offset by foreign exchange.

At the end of the quarter, our external leverage ratio was 48% (FY13: 50%) and 31% on an S&P basis. Since then, our stronger cash flow position has allowed us to repay £240 million of expensive hybrid debt, consistent with our deleveraging plan.

Our pro forma economic capital surplus is £7.8 billion (FY13: £8.3 billion). Disposals, operating profits and positive investment returns were offset by the recognition of dividends and the repayment of hybrid capital in April. Liquidity at Group centre was £1.5 billion at 31 March 2014.

Our plans to reduce the inter-company loan are on track and we will provide an update on this in the 2014 interim results.

Expenses

n Momentum from 2013 has continued into 2014

In our FY13 results we reported that we had achieved £360 million of the £400 million 2014 cost reduction target and that our cost savings were ahead of plan. Momentum has continued into 2014, as we focus on our operating expense ratio, which we will update at the half year.

Integration and restructuring costs at Aviva have historically been high and an impediment to cash remitted to Group. In the first three months of 2014, integration and restructuring expenses were 67% lower at £18 million (1Q13: £54 million), almost entirely related to Solvency II. Project spend is lumpy and a modest pick-up in this run-rate is expected later in the year.

Management

We continue to strengthen the senior management team. A number of senior executives have joined Aviva recently, including Tom Stoddard, Group CFO and a plc Board Director, Colm Holmes, UK GI CFO, Monique Shivanandan, Chief Information Officer, Simon Rich, Group Treasurer, Ken Rappold, Asia CFO, Mark Versey, Director of Client Solutions at Aviva Investors and David Lovely, Global GI Claims Director.

Outlook

The start of 2014 has demonstrated the benefits of Aviva's diversification, but we are not content to rely on diversification to ensure results. We focus on individual business cells and improving each is a priority.

The impact of regulatory reform in the UK, poor weather and difficult trading conditions in the UK motor market have been offset by our recovering European businesses and strong performance from our growth markets. As a group, we aim to deliver cash flow plus growth, with an emphasis on cash flow, and there is much work still to do in order to achieve our full potential.

1 - Basis of preparation

The MCEV net asset value per share, VNB, PVNBP and operating capital generation (OCG) information included in this announcement and statistical supplement reflect the following changes to the MCEV methodology that have been implemented in 2014:

n The definition of covered business has been extended to include UK Retail Fund Management as well as health business in the UK and Singapore which is managed on a long term basis. Premiums for UK Retail Fund Management are now included in both investment sales and MCEV PVNBP. Premiums for long term health business in the UK and Singapore are now included in both IFRS net written premiums and MCEV PVNBP.

n The assessment of the liquidity premium is now based on a notional portfolio of assets for all business and for the first time a liquidity premium is applied to participating business. A liquidity premium continues to be applied to annuity business. The changes to the liquidity premium valuation impact the UK, Ireland, France, Italy and Spain.

Comparatives have been restated accordingly. The impact on MCEV net asset value per share, VNB, PVNBP and OCG is as follows:

n MCEV net asset value per share as at FY13 has increased from 445 pence per share to 463 pence per share;

n Total VNB from continuing operations for the three months ended 31 March 2013 increased from £196 million to £209 million, and for the year ended 31 December 2013 increased from £836 million to £904 million;

n Total PVNBP from continuing operations for the three months ended 31 March 2013 increased from £5,457 million to £5,898 million, and for the year ended 31 December 2013 increased from £20,548 million to £23,177 million;

n OCG for 1Q13 has remained stable at £0.4 billion.

For the Singapore health business, comparatives were not affected until the second half of 2013, when the product terms and conditions were changed enabling this business to be included as covered business.
