Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "intends," "seeks," "aims," "plans," "assumes," "estimates," "projects," "is optimistic," "targets," "should," "would," "could," "may," "will," "shall" or variations of such words are generally part of forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements include, without limitation, all matters that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements are made based on management's current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon Corebridge. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting Corebridge will be those anticipated by management. Any forward-looking statements included herein are not a guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements, including those listed in the Appendix hereto.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise may be required by law. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates

Any forward-looking statements included herein are not a guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates reflected or implied in such forward-looking statements, including, among others, risks related to:

  • changes in interest rates and changes to credit spreads;

  • the deterioration of economic conditions, including an increase in the likelihood of an economic slowdown or recession, changes in market conditions, trade disputes with other countries, including the effect of sanctions and trade restrictions, such as tariffs and trade barriers imposed by the U.S. government and any countermeasures by other governments in response to such tariffs, weakening in capital markets in the U.S and globally, volatility in equity markets, inflationary pressures, the rise of pressures on the commercial real estate market, and geopolitical tensions, including the ongoing armed conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in the Middle East;

  • the unpredictability of the amount and timing of insurance liability claims;

  • unavailable, uneconomical or inadequate reinsurance or recaptures of reinsured liabilities;

  • uncertainty and unpredictability related to our reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd. ("Fortitude Re") and its performance of its obligations under these agreements;

  • our limited ability to access funds from our subsidiaries;

  • our ability to incur indebtedness, our potential inability to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness or our ability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all;

  • our ability to maintain sufficient eligible collateral to support business and funding strategies requiring collateralization;

  • our inability to generate cash to meet our needs due to the illiquidity of some of our investments;

  • the inaccuracy of the methodologies, estimations and assumptions underlying our valuation of investments and derivatives;

  • a downgrade in our Insurer Financial Strength ("IFS") ratings or credit ratings;

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates

(continued from prior page)

  • exposure to credit risk due to non-performance or defaults by our counterparties or our use of derivative instruments to hedge market risks associated with our liabilities;

  • our ability to adequately assess risks and estimate losses related to the pricing of our products;

  • the failure of third parties that we rely upon to provide and adequately perform certain business, operations, investment advisory, functional support and administrative services on our behalf;

  • the impact of risks associated with our arrangement with Blackstone ISG-I Advisors LLC ("Blackstone IM"), BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. ("BlackRock") or any other asset manager we retain, including their historical performance not being indicative of the future results of our investment portfolio and the exclusivity of certain arrangements with Blackstone IM;

  • our inability to maintain the availability of critical technology systems and the confidentiality of our data, including challenges associated with a variety of privacy and information security laws;

  • the ineffectiveness of our risk management policies and procedures;

  • significant legal, governmental or regulatory proceedings;

  • the intense competition we face in each of our business lines and the technological changes, including the use of artificial intelligence ("AI"), that may present new and intensified challenges to our business;

  • catastrophes, including those associated with climate change and pandemics;

  • business or asset acquisitions and dispositions that may expose us to certain risks;

  • our ability to protect our intellectual property;

  • our ability to operate efficiently and compete effectively in a heavily regulated industry in light of new domestic or international laws and regulations or new interpretations of current laws and regulations;

  • impact on sales of our products and taxation of our operations due to changes in U.S. federal income or other tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws;

  • the ineffectiveness of our productivity improvement initiatives in yielding our expected expense reductions and improvements in operational and organizational efficiency;

  • differences between actual experience and the estimates used in the preparation of financial statements and modeled results used in various areas of our business;

  • our inability to attract and retain key employees and highly skilled people needed to support our business;

  • our relationships with AIG, Nippon and Blackstone and conflicts of interests arising due to such relationships;

  • the indemnification obligations we have to AIG;

  • potentially higher U.S. federal income taxes due to our inability to file a single U.S. consolidated federal income tax return for five years following our initial public offering ("IPO") and our separation from AIG causing an "ownership change" for U.S. federal income tax purposes caused by our separation from AIG;

  • risks associated with the Tax Matters Agreement with AIG and our potential liability for U.S. income taxes of the entire AIG Consolidated Tax Group for all taxable years or portions thereof in which we (or our subsidiaries) were members of such group;

  • the risk that anti-takeover provisions could discourage, delay, or prevent our change in control, even if the change in control would be beneficial to our shareholders;

  • challenges related to compliance with applicable laws incident to being a public company, which is expensive and time-consuming; and

  • other factors discussed in "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as well as our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

    Throughout this presentation, we present our financial condition and results of operations in the way we believe will be most meaningful and representative of our business results. Some of the measurements we use are ''Non-GAAP financial measures'' under SEC rules and regulations. We believe presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures allows for a deeper understanding of the profitability drivers of our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. These measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies.

    Adjusted pre-tax operating income ("APTOI") is derived by excluding the items set forth below from income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit). These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and recording adjustments to APTOI that we believe to be common in our industry. We believe the adjustments to pre-tax income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations.

    APTOI excludes the impact of the following items:

    FORTITUDE RE RELATED ADJUSTMENTS:

    The modified coinsurance ("modco") reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re transfer the economics of the invested assets supporting the reinsurance agreements to Fortitude Re. Accordingly, the net investment income on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and the net realized gains (losses) on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets are excluded from APTOI. Similarly, changes in the Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative are also excluded from APTOI. The ongoing results associated with the reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re have been excluded from APTOI as these are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.

    INVESTMENT RELATED ADJUSTMENTS:

    APTOI excludes "Net realized gains (losses)", except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments. Net realized gains (losses), except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments, are excluded as the timing of sales on invested assets or changes in allowances depend largely on market credit cycles and can vary considerably across periods. In addition, changes in interest rates may create opportunistic scenarios to buy or sell invested assets. Our derivative results, including those used to economically hedge insurance liabilities, or those recognized as embedded derivatives at fair value, are also included in Net realized gains (losses) and are similarly excluded from APTOI except earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedges or for asset replication. Earned income on such economic hedges is reclassified from Net realized gains and losses to specific APTOI line items based on the economic risk being hedged (e.g., Net investment income and Interest credited to policyholder account balances).

    MARKET RISK BENEFIT ADJUSTMENTS ("MRBs"):

    Certain of our variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity contracts contain guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits ("GMWBs") and/or guaranteed minimum death benefits ("GMDBs") which are accounted for as MRBs. Changes in the fair value of these MRBs (excluding changes related to our own credit risk), including certain rider fees attributed to the MRBs, along with changes in the fair value of derivatives used to hedge MRBs are recorded through "Change in the fair value of MRBs, net" and are excluded from APTOI.

    Changes in the fair value of securities used to economically hedge MRBs are excluded from APTOI.

    OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:

    Other adjustments represent all other adjustments that are excluded from APTOI and includes the net pre-tax operating income (losses) from noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment entities. The excluded adjustments include, as applicable:

  • restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization;

  • non-recurring costs associated with the implementation of non-ordinary course legal or regulatory changes or changes to accounting principles;

  • separation costs;

  • non-operating litigation reserves and settlements;

  • loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, if any;

  • losses from the impairment of goodwill, if any; and

  • income and loss from divested or run-off business, if any.

    Adjusted after-tax operating income attributable to our common shareholders ("Adjusted After-tax Operating Income" or "AATOI") is derived by excluding the tax effected APTOI adjustments described above, as well as the following tax items from net income attributable to us:

  • reclassifications of disproportionate tax effects from AOCI, changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax items related to legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; and

  • deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges.

Adjusted Book Value is derived by excluding AOCI, adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re's funds withheld assets. We believe this measure is useful to investors as it eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio for which there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities that are not recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded through OCI. It also eliminates asymmetrical impacts where our own credit non-performance risk is recorded through OCI. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re's funds withheld assets since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re.

Adjusted Return on Average Equity ("Adjusted ROAE") is derived by dividing AATOI by average Adjusted Book Value and is used by management to evaluate our recurring profitability and evaluate trends in our business. We believe this measure is useful to investors as it eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio for which there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities that are not recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded through OCI. It also eliminates asymmetrical impacts where our own credit non-performance risk is recorded through OCI. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re's funds withheld assets since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re.

Adjusted revenues exclude Net realized gains (losses) except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments, income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes) and changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits (included in Net investment income for GAAP purposes).

Net investment income (APTOI basis) is the sum of base portfolio income and variable investment income. We believe that presenting net investment income on an APTOI basis is useful for gaining an understanding of the main drivers of investment income.

Normalized distributions are defined as dividends paid by the Life Fleet subsidiaries as well as the international insurance subsidiaries, less non-recurring dividends, plus dividend capacity that would have been available to Corebridge absent strategies that resulted in utilization of tax attributes. We believe that presenting normalized distributions is useful in understanding a significant component of our liquidity as a stand-alone company.

Operating Earnings per Common Share ("Operating EPS") is derived by dividing AATOI by weighted average diluted shares.

Premiums and deposits is a non-GAAP financial measure that includes direct and assumed premiums received and earned on traditional life insurance policies and life-contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life insurance, investment-type annuity contracts and GICs. We believe the measure of premiums and deposits is useful in understanding customer demand for our products, evolving product trends and our sales performance period over period.

Key operating metrics and key terms

Assets Under Management and Administration

  • Assets Under Management ("AUM") include assets in the general and separate accounts of our subsidiaries that support liabilities and surplus related to our life and annuity insurance products.

  • Assets Under Administration ("AUA") include Group Retirement mutual fund assets and other third-party assets that we sell or administer and the notional value of Stable Value Wrap ("SVW") contracts.

  • Assets Under Management and Administration ("AUMA") is the cumulative amount of AUM and AUA.

    Base net investment spread means base yield less cost of funds, excluding the amortization of deferred sales inducement assets.

    Base spread income means base portfolio income less interest credited to policyholder account balances, excluding the amortization of deferred sales inducement assets. Base yield means the returns from base portfolio income including accretion and impacts from holding cash and short-term investments.

    Core sources of income means the sum of base spread income, fee income and underwriting margin, excluding variable investment income, in our Individual Retirement, Group Retirement, Life Insurance and Institutional Markets segments.

    Key operating metrics and key terms

    (continued from prior page)

    Cost of funds means the interest credited to policyholders excluding the amortization of deferred sales inducement assets.

    Fee and Spread Income and Underwriting Margin

  • Fee income is defined as policy fees plus advisory fees plus other fee income. For our Institutional Markets segment, its Stable Value Wrap products generate fee income.

  • Spread income is defined as net investment income less interest credited to policyholder account balances, exclusive of amortization of deferred sales inducement assets. Spread income is comprised of both base spread income and variable investment income. For our Institutional Markets segment, its structured settlements, PRT and GIC products generate spread income, which includes premiums, net investment income, less interest credited and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update.

  • Underwriting margin for our Life Insurance segment includes premiums, policy fees, other income, net investment income, less interest credited to policyholder account balances and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update. For our Institutional Markets segment, its Corporate Markets products generate underwriting margin, which includes premiums, net investment income, policy and advisory fee income, less interest credited and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update.

    Financial leverage ratio means the ratio of financial debt to the sum of financial debt plus Adjusted Book Value plus non-redeemable noncontrolling interests. Life Fleet RBC ratio

  • Life Fleet means American General Life Insurance Company ("AGL"), The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York ("USL") and The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company ("VALIC").

  • Life Fleet RBC Ratio is the risk-based capital ("RBC") ratio for the Life Fleet. RBC ratios are quoted using the Company Action Level.

    Net Investment Income

  • Base portfolio income includes interest, dividends and foreclosed real estate income, net of investment expenses and non-qualifying (economic) hedges.

  • Variable investment income includes call and tender income from make-whole payments on commercial mortgage loan prepayments, changes in market value of investments accounted for under the fair value option, interest received on defaulted investments (other than foreclosed real estate), income from alternative investments and other miscellaneous investment income, including income of certain partnership entities that are required to be consolidated. Alternative investments include private equity funds which are generally reported on a one-quarter lag.
