2008-02-05	Contract/Agreements	Aflac's eighth consecutive appearance on Training Magazine's list ranks 33 COLUMBUS, Ga., Feb. 5 /PRNewswire/ For the eighth consecutive year, highly developed education and leadership programs helped Aflac leap to Number 33 among the best corporations providing career development for employees according to Training Magazine's annual Top 125 listing. During an exclusive ceremony in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center, the insurer was honored for its professional and personal development courses, shooting up 13 spots from last year. "We take tremendous pride in being designated as one of the best in providing quality career enhancement courses to our employees," said Audrey Tillman, executive vice president, director of Corporate Services. "As we continue to develop our corporate training offerings, it is validating to see our workforce build their careers using the resources and knowledge we help them to obtain." To compile the listing, applying businesses completed a two part survey that highlighted professional skills, executive coaching, leadership development, employee orientation, sales training and diversity programs. Several of the company's training initiatives were lauded, including the Aflac Leadership Academy, a curriculum designed especially for company management that provides offsite training, discussion and activities all geared toward promoting action learning of core competencies. The Health Insurance Program, an accredited program for high school students to gain knowledge and skills necessary to be successful in an insurance organization, was also recognized. In addition to professional development training, Aflac provides personal development sessions referred to as Lunch and Learn courses. Topics addressed include tips on budgeting and saving as well as classes for first time home buyers. The company also offers a variety of tuition assistance programs for first time degree seekers and graduate students, and renewable college scholarships for children and grandchildren of employees. Training Magazine's complete listing will be available in a special section of the March issue. Other recent recognitions Aflac has received include being named for the tenth consecutive time to FORTUNE magazine's 100 Best Companies to Work For in America and making the Latina Style magazine's 50 Best Companies for Hispanic Women to Work list.

2008-01-29	Earnings/Dividends	Aflac Incorporated announced today that it intends on conducting an accelerated repurchase of approximately 12 million shares of its common stock in the first quarter of 2008. This accelerated share repurchase will be funded with internal capital. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi bin/prnh/20041202/CLTH019LOGO ) To provide for future share repurchase activities, the board of directors today authorized the purchase of up to an additional 30 million shares of its common stock. This authorization is in addition to the 25.6 million shares that remained under a previous authorization as of December 31, 2007, bringing the total number of shares available for purchase to 55.6 million. The board of directors also approved a 17.1% increase in the quarterly cash dividend, effective with the first quarter payment. The first quarter dividend of $.24 per share is payable on March 3, 2008, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 20, 2008. Commenting on the news, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Daniel P. Amos stated: "I am very pleased with today's actions by our board of directors. These steps are consistent with our intention of deploying excess capital in a manner that benefits our shareholders, while still maintaining very strong capital adequacy ratios to support our ratings. "In addition to accelerating our planned annual repurchase of 12 million shares, we also anticipate buying more shares later in the year, depending on market conditions. Purchasing 12 to 18 million shares this year gives us greater confidence in achieving the high end of our 13% to 15% range for operating earnings per share growth for 2008. We will also be better positioned to extend our lengthy record of strong earnings growth into 2009. I remain focused on increasing operating earnings per share by at least 15%, excluding the impact of the yen, through 2009, which will mark my first 20 years as CEO. I still believe that goal is achievable, and I continue to believe we are poised for strong growth beyond 2009 as well. "I am also pleased with the increase in our cash dividend. Aflac's annual cash dividend payment to shareholders has compounded at 21.7% annually over the last 10 years. This increase marks the 26th consecutive year in which we have raised the dividend payment. I believe the combination of strong earnings growth and increasing cash dividends is an effective means for enhancing value to Aflac's shareholders."

The leading insurer catapulted to number 30 on the revered listing and is the top ranked company headquartered in Georgia to make the list. FORTUNE magazine cited Aflac for allowing shareholders a "say on pay" vote in 2008 and its top compensation package pension, profit sharing, and 401(k) match. The company was also recognized for its philanthropy, diversity, job creation and on site child care program, which is the largest in the state of Georgia. "It is a great honor to be distinguished among the best workplaces in America for the tenth year in a row," said Dan Amos, Aflac chairman and CEO. "This recognition exemplifies Aflac's talented, dedicated and resilient employees who consistently deliver excellence. This exclusive designation underscores Aflac's ongoing commitment to giving back to the community and providing quality customer service." The company's employees are involved in many philanthropic organizations, such as Boys and Girls Clubs, Habitat for Humanity and the Aflac Cancer Center and Blood Disorders Service of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Aflac has raised nearly $40 million to benefit the Aflac Cancer Center with the support from its employees and sales associates. More than 400 companies were evaluated based on their corporate policies, culture and employee opinions. Randomly selected employees from each company responded to the most extensive employee survey in corporate America, which was conducted by the Great Place to Work Institute in San Francisco.
