Aflac has been upgraded to a Buy rating from my previous hold rating a year ago, thanks to growth and retention of policies in Q3, even though there was a loss in net earnings. While the stock is close to a 10-year high, it remains undervalued compared to important competitors based on forward P/E and trailing P/B ratios. The trend of increasing dividends is expected to remain strong.
AFL's earnings in the third quarter improved due to increased net investment income and lower operating costs. However, the positive effects were somewhat balanced out by decreased benefits and expenses in the Japan segment.
