2021 Third Quarter - Key Highlights
- $3.6 billion in cash and investments at the parent company
- Net income of $220 million, or $0.85 per share
- Drivers of the year-over-year quarterly net income increase are:
- CNA Financial Corporation with higher Property & Casualty non-catastrophe underwriting results and improved Life & Group business results primarily due to the absence of the prior year active life premium deficiency charge, partially offset by higher net catastrophe losses and lower investment gains
- Loews Hotels & Co with significantly improved results due to the continuing rebound in leisure travel, especially at resort destinations
- Boardwalk Pipelines with increased revenues reflecting the impact of recently completed growth projects and higher system utilization
- Repurchased 6.2 million Loews shares at an aggregate cost of $333 million
- Dividends from subsidiaries totaled $92 million
- $17.8 billion in shareholders' equity / book value per share of $70.21 as of September 30, 2021
