INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OneAmerica Financial this week announced a historic $54.9 million life insurance dividend payout and a 25-basis point increase in its 2027 dividend interest rate. The dividend payout represents a 29% increase over the most recent payment in 2026 and applies to all American United Life Insurance Company^® (AUL) whole life insurance policyowners, including existing policies and new sales.

Whole life insurance dividends are paid to eligible participating policyowners and reflect the company's financial performance and experience. Depending on policy provisions, policyowners may use dividends to purchase additional coverage, reduce premiums or receive cash payments.

As OneAmerica Financial prepares to celebrate its 150-year legacy in 2027, the dividend rate increase reflects the organization's long-standing financial strength, disciplined management and commitment to delivering value to policyowners. The organization's focus on customers' long-term financial security demonstrates two of its guiding values: integrity and stewardship. As evidence of these principles, OneAmerica Financial has consistently delivered strong and stable life insurance dividend payouts.

"We remain committed to driving performance to provide value for our policyholders," said Dennis Martin, president of Individual Life & Financial Services at OneAmerica Financial. "Our ability to pair high-quality products with dependable service continues to strengthen policyholder trust. We're pleased to demonstrate that commitment once again through this year's substantial dividend payout and increased dividend interest rate."

The dividend payout and subsequent increase for 2027 reflect the mission of OneAmerica Financial to responsibly manage the business for the benefit of policyowners. The organization's strong fiscal position, a favorable interest rate environment and continued focus on increasing capital over the past several years have contributed to the increase.
