What this company does

The Parent Company and its subsidiaries provide financial protection to millions of policyholders and customers in Japan and the United States. The Company's principal business is supplemental health and life insurance products. The Company's insurance business consists of two reporting segments: Aflac Japan and Aflac U.S. Aflac Japan is the principal contributor to the Parent Company's consolidated earnings. Aflac Japan pioneered the cancer insurance market in Japan in 1974. Aflac Japan was represented by approximately 6,300 sales agencies at the end of 2025, with approximately 112,000 licensed sales associates employed by those agencies, including individual agencies. The Company designs its U.S. insurance products to provide supplemental coverage for people who already have major medical or primary insurance coverage, and Aflac U.S. insurance policies pay benefits regardless of other insurance. Aflac Incorporated was incorporated in 1973 under the laws of the state of Georgia.

The 19-year record
19 fiscal years
Every figure from documents filed with the SEC · USD

EPS, diluted, dividend per share and shares outstanding are shown without shading, and a vertical line marks the year the share count changed — the series crosses a large, unexplained change in share count, so the years on either side are not on a comparable scale.
