Analyst projections of the future price of Lincoln Financial Group stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Adjusted operating income rose 3% year on year to $439 million in the second quarter, marking the company’s eighth consecutive quarter of year-on-year growth. That gives investors evidence that its turnaround is producing steadier operating results. (Business Wire, Investing.com)
Lincoln completed its $6.3 billion Talcott reinsurance deal, and together with the Fortitude transaction it has now reinsured about 60% of its guaranteed universal life block. The deal reduces exposure to legacy liabilities and is expected to lift annual subsidiary remittances by $30–$40 million over the medium term. (Lincoln Financial, Stockhouse)
Lincoln plans to resume share repurchases and has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.45 per share, with about $714 million left under its buyback authorisation. A return to shareholder distributions suggests management sees scope to deploy capital while maintaining its financial position. (Lincoln Financial)
Annuity sales fell 13% year on year to $3.5 billion, while net outflows widened to about $2.9 billion from $1.2 billion. Persistent withdrawals could offset the benefit of record account balances and the shift towards spread-based products. (Business Wire)
Retirement Plan Services had $2.4 billion of net outflows, up from $585 million a year earlier, including three large plan terminations. Although Lincoln says it is choosing profitability over volume, continued withdrawals could shrink the business’s asset base and fee income. (Business Wire)
Group Protection operating income fell to $147 million from $173 million, with its margin down to 10.4%. The disability loss ratio rose to 71.9% from 64.2% as unusually favourable claims experience normalised, creating a headwind to earnings. (Investing.com)
