Executive summary

Globe Life is an insurance holding company that sells life and supplemental health insurance mainly to middle-income households in the United States. It reaches customers through direct-to-consumer marketing, agencies and employer or association channels. Revenue comes from premiums paid by policyholders and from investment income earned on the assets backing its policy obligations, so claims experience and investment returns shape its results.

Trailing twelve-month revenue stands at $6.2 billion. Revenue growth over three years averaged 4.7% a year. Operating margin is 26.4% and return on invested capital is 15%. It pays a dividend with a yield of 0.7%. These figures describe past results as reported and are a factual snapshot, not a forecast. Some measures, such as margins for real estate trusts and banks, are defined differently from those of industrial firms, so comparisons should be made with care.

StocksXray gives Globe Life Inc. an X-Ray Score of 53 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 62% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is valuation (59) and its weakest is growth (42).

Our fair value blend is $153.94. At $168.77 the stock trades 10% above that blend, so the label is "Fair" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
