Supplemental & Group Benefits segment net income for the quarter was $14.1 million compared to $11.8 million in the prior year. The increase was due to higher net investment income and a lower benefits ratio. Segment net investment income increased 15.4% in the quarter, driven primarily by higher returns in private credit and the limited partnership portfolio. The benefit ratio for the worksite direct product line was 2.1 points lower than prior year ratio and the benefit ratio for the employer-sponsored product lines was 1.7 points lower than the prior year, both below the longer-term target. The non-cash impact of amortization of intangible assets under purchase accounting reduced core earnings by $3.6 million compared to $3.7 million, pretax, in prior year.

Total segment sales* for the quarter were $5.9 million, up 34.1% over the prior year, with worksite direct supplemental product sales of $4.0 million and employer-sponsored products of $1.9 million. Both product lines contributed to the favorable comparison to prior year. Employer sponsored sales may vary significantly between comparable periods due to differences in average case size. Persistency remains strong for the segment.
