*	These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the Investment Division from the underlying Fund, divided by the average net assets of the Investment Division. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units. For periods less than one year, ratios have not been annualized.
†	This represents the total return for the period and reflects those expenses that result in direct reductions in the accumulation unit values. The total return is indicative of what a policyholder would have experienced assuming they had been in the division for the corresponding period. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. For periods less than one year, ratios have not been annualized. For contracts with only one expense ratio, the ratio is presented only under the Highest Expense Ratio.
^	The ratio of expenses is indicative of what a policyholder would have experienced assuming they had been in the division for the corresponding period. This represents the annualized contract expenses of the Investment Divisions of the Separate Account and includes only those expenses that are charged through a reduction in the accumulation unit values. Excluded are expenses of the underlying Funds and charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units. As of December 31, 2022, all policyholders are in policy years 11+ and therefore the lower charge would apply. Expense Ratios for the years ended 12/31/2022 and after include only contract expense levels that had units issued or outstanding during the reporting period. For contracts with only one expense ratio, the ratio is presented only under the Highest Expense Ratio.
¥	Some investments have a net asset and ending units outstanding balance of less than one thousand due to rounding it is displayed as a zero.

*	These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the Investment Division from the underlying Fund, divided by the average net assets of the Investment Division. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that are assessed against contract owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units. For periods less than one year, ratios have not been annualized.
†	This represents the total return for the period and reflects those expenses that result in direct reductions in the accumulation unit values. The total return is indicative of what a policyholder would have experienced assuming they had been in the division for the corresponding period. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. For periods less than one year, ratios have not been annualized. For contracts with only one expense ratio, the ratio is presented only under the Highest Expense Ratio.
^	The ratio of expenses is indicative of what a policyholder would have experienced assuming they had been in the division for the corresponding period. This represents the annualized contract expenses of the Investment Divisions of the Separate Account and includes only those expenses that are charged through a reduction in the accumulation unit values. Excluded are expenses of the underlying Funds and charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units. As of December 31, 2022, all policyholders are in policy years 11+ and therefore the lower charge would apply. Expense Ratios for the years ended 12/31/2022 and after include only contract expense levels that had units issued or outstanding during the reporting period. For contracts with only one expense ratio, the ratio is presented only under the Highest Expense Ratio.
¥	Some investments have a net asset and ending units outstanding balance of less than one thousand due to rounding it is displayed as a zero.

Jackson VFL Variable Life Separate Account

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2025

NOTE 1. Organization

The Jackson VFL Variable Life Separate Account (the “Separate Account”), a unit investment trust registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (“1940 Act”), is a separate investment account of Jackson National Life Insurance Company (“Jackson”). On September 4, 2012, Jackson acquired Reassure America Life Insurance Company (“Realic”) as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary. Following the acquisition and effective December 31, 2012, Realic merged with and into Jackson. The Separate Account was established on October 18, 1995, and began operations on February 24, 1997. The Separate Account is an Investment Company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board “FASB” Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.

The Separate Account contains thirty-eight (38) Investment Divisions as of December 31, 2025. These Investment Divisions each invest in the following mutual funds (collectively, the “Funds”) in which the contract owners bear all of the investment risk. Each Fund is an open-end diversified management investment company and is managed by an investment advisor ("Investment Advisor") which is registered with the SEC.

The Net assets are affected by the investment results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and certain contract expenses. The accompanying financial statements include only contract owners’ purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their contracts and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included in the accounts of Jackson.

Jackson VFL Variable Life Separate Account

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2025

As of 2002, variable life contracts are no longer offered for sale. However, the Separate Account continues to accept new purchase payments and process transactions for existing contracts, including the Life Dimensions Variable Universal Life Series (collectively the, “Contracts”). Under the terms of the Contracts, contract owners select where the net purchase payments of the Contracts are invested. The contract owner may choose to invest in either Fixed Account I, Fixed Account II (collectively, the “Fixed Accounts”) or the Separate Account, or both the Separate Account and the Fixed Accounts.

The Fixed Account I, which is part of the General Account, offers a guaranteed fixed interest rate. The Fixed Account II, which is segregated from the General Account, offers various interest rates and time periods. The Fixed Accounts have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 nor have the Fixed Accounts been registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect amounts invested in the Fixed Accounts.

The Separate Account is a separate investment account of Jackson. Its assets legally belong to Jackson and the obligations under the contracts are the obligation of Jackson, but are clearly identified and distinguished from Jackson's other assets and liabilities. The contract assets in the Separate Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business Jackson may conduct. The contract owner may transfer all or part of any Investment Divisions’ value to another Investment Division(s) or to the Fixed Accounts, or transfer all or part of amounts in the Fixed Accounts to any Investment Division(s) (before the maturity date, while the contract owner is still living or the contract is in force).

NOTE 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Separate Account in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increase and decrease in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments. The specific identification method is used in determining the cost of the shares sold on withdrawals by the Investment Divisions of the Separate Account. Investment transactions in the Funds are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Realized gain distributions and dividend income distributions received from the Funds are reinvested in additional shares of the Funds and are recorded as gain or income to the Investment Divisions of the Separate Account on the ex-dividend date.

Federal Income Taxes. The operations of the Separate Account are taxed as part of the operations of Jackson, which is taxed as a “life insurance company” under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal income taxes are payable with respect to the Separate Account. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Taxes are generally the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or withdrawal.

Fair Value Measurement. As of December 31, 2025, all of the Separate Account’s Investment Divisions’ investment in the corresponding Funds are valued at the daily reported net asset value (“NAV”) of the applicable underlying Funds. Investments in the underlying Funds are categorized as Level 1 within FASB ASC Topic 820 fair value hierarchy. On each valuation date, the NAV of the corresponding Funds is generally determined once each day on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open, at the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern Time). The characterization of the underlying securities held by the Funds in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820 differs from the characterization of the Separate Account’s Investment Divisions’ investment in the corresponding Funds. Although there can be no assurance, in general, the fair value of the investment is the amount the owner of such investment might reasonably expect to receive in an orderly transaction between market participants upon its current sale.

NOTE 3. Charges and Deductions

Jackson deducts charges and other expenses associated with the Contracts that reduce the return of the Investment Divisions’ investments in the Contracts. These deductions are outlined below.


Contract	Monthly Contract Fee^a	Face Amount Increase Fee^b	Daily Expense Charge^c	Sales Charge^d
Dimension One	$26/month – year 1 $6/month – years 2+	$10/month for the 1 year period following the change	0.90% of assets – years 1-10 0.45% of assets – years 11+	7.5% up to sales target premium paid – years 1-10 5.5% up to sales target premium paid – years 11+ 3.5% on excess premium paid – all years
Dimension Two	None	Not Permitted	1.50% of assets – years 1-10 0.90% of assets – years 11+	None
Dimension Four	None	$10/month for the 1 year period following the change	0.90% of assets – years 1-10 0.45% of assets – years 11+	4% of all premiums

^aContract Fees are recognized as a redemption of units.

^b Face Amount Increase Fees are recognized as a redemption of units.

^c Rates presented are annualized and charged through a reduction of contract unit value.

^dSales charges are assessed by and payable to Jackson from the amount invested.

Jackson VFL Variable Life Separate Account

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2025

Jackson permits 12 transfers between and among the Investment Divisions within the Separate Account per contract year without an assessment of a fee. For each additional transfer, Jackson charges $25 at the time each such transfer is processed. The fee is deducted from the amount being transferred.

Jackson and its affiliates may receive fees from the Funds or their Investment Advisors, administrators and distributors for providing distribution, administrative or other services to the Funds.

Jackson may deduct a cost of insurance charge to compensate for the cost of providing life insurance for the contract owner. Such cost is determined based on a predetermined calculation set forth in the variable annuity contract and is charged through a redemption of units.

Contract owners may, with certain restrictions, transfer their assets between the Separate Account and a fixed dollar contract (fixed account) maintained in

the accounts of Jackson. These transfers are the result of the contract owner executing fund exchanges. Fund exchanges from the Separate Account to

the fixed account are included in surrenders and terminations, and fund exchanges from the fixed account to the Separate Account are included in

purchase payments, as applicable, on the accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

NOTE 4. Segment Reporting

The Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Jackson is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for each of the investment divisions of the Separate Accounts. Each investment division is comprised of a single reportable segment, whose assets are invested in a fund with a single investment strategy, which reflects how the CODM monitors and manages the operating results of each investment division. The CODM manages the allocation of resources in accordance with each investment division’s objective and the terms of the underlying fund’s prospectus. The financial information used by the CODM to assess the segment’s performance and to allocate resources, including total return, expense ratios, net changes in net assets from operations, is consistent with that presented within each investment division’s financial statements and financial highlights.

NOTE 5. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events for the Separate Account through the date the financial statements were issued and has concluded there are no events that require adjustments to the financial statements or disclosure in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Audit and Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Opinions

We have audited the statutory financial statements of Jackson National Life Insurance Company (the Company), which comprise the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related statutory statements of operations, capital and surplus, and cash flow for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the statutory financial statements.

Unmodified Opinion on Statutory Basis of Accounting

In our opinion, the accompanying statutory financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flow for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025 in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services described in Note 2.

Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter discussed in the Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles section of our report, the statutory financial statements do not present fairly, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for the three-year period ended December 31, 2025.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statutory Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

As described in Note 2 to the statutory financial statements, the statutory financial statements are prepared by the Company using accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services, which is a basis of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the statutory financial statements are not intended to be presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The effects on the statutory financial statements of the variances between the statutory accounting practices described in Note 2 and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material and pervasive.

KPMG LLP, a Delaware limited liability partnership, and its subsidiaries are part of

the KPMG global organization of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG

International Limited, a private English company limited by guarantee.

Responsibilities of Management for the Statutory Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the statutory financial statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of statutory financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the statutory financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the statutory financial statements are issued.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Statutory Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statutory financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the statutory financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

•Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

•Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the statutory financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the statutory financial statements.

•Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

•Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the statutory financial statements.

•Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

Supplementary Information

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the statutory financial statements as a whole. The supplementary information included in the supplemental schedule of selected financial data,

supplemental investment risks interrogatories, summary investment schedule, and reinsurance risk interrogatories is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the statutory financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the statutory financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the statutory financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the statutory financial statements or to the statutory financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with GAAS. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the statutory financial statements as a whole.

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Note 1 - Organization

Jackson National Life Insurance Company (the “Company” or “Jackson”) is wholly owned by Brooke Life Insurance Company (“Brooke Life” or the “Parent”), which is wholly owned by Jackson Financial Inc. (“Jackson Financial”).

Jackson is licensed to sell group and individual annuity products (including immediate, fixed index, deferred fixed, variable, and registered index-linked annuities ("RILA")) and individual life insurance products in 49 states and the District of Columbia. Jackson also participates in the institutional products market through the issuance of guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”) and funding agreements. There is no substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (“statutory”). Certain of these statutory accounting practices vary from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including the following:

1.The costs related to acquiring business, principally commissions, bonus interest on certain products and certain policy issue and underwriting costs, are charged to income in the year incurred and, thus, are not capitalized and amortized over the periods benefited;

2.Assets must be included in the statement of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus at "admitted asset value," with "non-admitted assets" excluded through a charge to surplus;

3.Bonds are generally carried at amortized cost and, for investments carried at fair value, changes in investment valuations are recorded in surplus (under GAAP, investments are generally carried at fair value, amortized cost for mortgage loans and policy loans, with changes in valuation recorded in other comprehensive income);

4.Investments in subsidiaries or companies where Jackson has a controlling interest or is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity are reported as investments, but are consolidated under GAAP;

5.Liabilities for the indexed portion of RILA contracts, as well as the assets supporting those liabilities, are included in separate accounts for statutory reporting;

6.Current expected credit losses (“CECL”) on certain financial assets are not recognized herein, but are required for GAAP;

7.A net deferred tax asset (“DTA”), for the tax effect of timing differences between book and tax assets and liabilities, is only reported as an admitted asset to the extent that it is realizable within three years and represents less than 15% of capital and surplus (adjusted to exclude any net DTAs, electronic data processing (“EDP”) equipment and operating system software and any net positive goodwill), subject to limits set by Statement of Statutory Accounting Principles (“SSAP”) No. 101, with the change in net deferred tax asset or liability being recorded directly to surplus;

8.For derivative instruments carried at fair value, changes in fair value are recorded directly to surplus (under GAAP, derivative instruments are carried at fair value with changes in fair value generally recorded in income);

9.Future policy benefit reserves for life insurance are based on statutory mortality and interest requirements without the consideration of withdrawals;

10.The Commissioners’ Annuity Reserve Valuation Method (“CARVM”) expense allowance associated with statutory reserving practices for deferred variable annuities held in the separate accounts is reported in the general account as a negative liability;

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

11.Reserve credits for reinsurance ceded are netted against the reserve liability, but are reported as assets under GAAP;

12.Surplus notes issued by the Company are recorded as surplus rather than as a liability under GAAP;

13.An asset valuation reserve (“AVR”) is established by a direct charge to surplus to offset future potential credit-related investment losses;

14.Realized gains and losses, net of tax, resulting from changes in interest rates on fixed income investments are deferred in the interest maintenance reserve (“IMR”) and amortized into investment income over the approximate remaining life of the investment sold;

15.Gains or losses resulting from market value adjustments (“MVA”) on policies and contracts backed by assets that are valued at book/adjusted carrying value ("BACV") are deferred in the IMR and amortized in a manner consistent with the determination of the MVA;

16.Premiums for any contract, including annuities, under which the Company assumes mortality or morbidity risk are recognized as revenues. Under GAAP, premiums for contracts under which the Company does not assume significant mortality or morbidity risk are generally accounted for as deposits to policyholders' accounts;

17.Net after tax gains on reinsurance transactions comprised of contracts in force at the date of the transaction are excluded from net income and recorded directly to surplus, and amortized into income as earnings emerge from the business reinsured;

18.Statements of cash flow are prepared under a prescribed format, which differs from the indirect format under GAAP; and

19.There is no presentation of comprehensive income.

The effects on the financial statements of the variances between statutory accounting practices and GAAP, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material and pervasive.

Certain amounts in the 2024 and 2023 statutory financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2025 presentation.

The Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (“DIFS”) recognizes statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the state of Michigan for determining and reporting the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company, and for determining its solvency under Michigan Insurance Law. The DIFS has adopted the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' (“NAIC”) Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual (“NAIC SAP”) to the extent that the accounting practices, procedures, and reporting standards are not modified by the Michigan Insurance Code. The state of Michigan has adopted certain prescribed accounting practices that differ from those defined in NAIC SAP. The commissioner of insurance also has the right to permit other specific practices that deviate from prescribed practices.

The Valuation of Life Insurance Policies Model Regulation (“Model 830”, also known as Regulation XXX), was effective for NAIC SAP in 2000. The state of Michigan did not permit Model 830 for reserve calculations until January 1, 2002. Thus, reserves for life business issued in calendar years 2000-2001 are not valued according to Model 830 and NAIC SAP, but rather, are valued under the prior method of the Standard Valuation Law, referred to as the ‘unitary’ method.

Actuarial Guideline XXXV (“Actuarial Guideline 35”) was adopted by the NAIC in December 1998. The purpose of Actuarial Guideline 35 is to interpret the standards for the valuation of statutory reserves for fixed index annuities. NAIC SAP requires application of Actuarial Guideline 35 for all fixed index annuities issued after December 31, 2000. Michigan law prescribes the valuation of fixed index annuities without consideration of Actuarial Guideline 35. As a result, and as demonstrated in the Company’s reconciliation of net income and capital and surplus between NAIC SAP and practices prescribed or permitted by the state of Michigan below, Actuarial Guideline 35 is not reflected in the Company’s accounts as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

New and Pending Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2023, the NAIC adopted revisions to SSAP No 26 – Bonds; SSAP No 43 – Loan-Backed and Structured Securities; and other SSAPs (e.g., SSAP No. 21 – Other Admitted Assets, and SSAP No., 86 – Derivatives) to incorporate the principles-based bond definition into statutory accounting guidance and amend the accounting for certain asset-backed securities and investments not classified as bonds. In December 2023, SSAP No. 2 – Cash, Cash Equivalents, Drafts and Short-Term Investments, was also revised to exclude certain securities from being reported as cash equivalents or short-term investments. In March 2024, the NAIC adopted revisions prescribing accounting guidance (measurement method) for all residual interests regardless of legal form. Collectively, these amendments are related to the NAIC Bond Project and became effective January 1, 2025. The Company adopted the amendments prospectively on January 1, 2025 and the adoption did not result in a material impact on the Company’s financial position or investment classifications. The required disclosures under the NAIC Bond Project are included in Note 3 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Note 4 – Investments.

In August 2025, the NAIC adopted changes to the statutory reserve framework for non-variable annuities, including immediate annuities, fixed deferred annuities, and fixed indexed annuities. The new principles-based reserve framework is included in VM-22: Requirements for Principle-Based Reserves for Non-Variable Annuities (“VM-22”) within the NAIC’s Valuation Manual. The new VM-22 framework includes a three-year transition period, with an optional effective date of January 1, 2026, and a mandatory effective date of January 1, 2029, and is applied prospectively to contracts issued after the effective date. Once the new framework is applied to the valuation of reserves for a contract, it is required to be applied to all future valuations for that contract. The Company plans to adopt the new VM-22 framework for all applicable contracts no later than January 1, 2029.

Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying financial statements and notes requires the use of estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates or assumptions, as further discussed in the notes, include: 1) valuation of investments and derivative instruments, including fair values of securities deemed to be in an illiquid market and the determination of when an impairment is other-than-temporary; 2) assumptions used in calculating policy reserves and liabilities, including, but not limited to mortality rates, policyholder behavior, expenses, investment returns, policy crediting rates and future hedging activity; 3) assumptions as to future earnings levels being sufficient to realize deferred tax benefits and whether or not certain deferred tax assets will reverse within three years; 4) estimates related to liabilities for lawsuits and establishment of liability for state guaranty fund assessments; and 5) assumptions and estimates associated with the Company’s tax positions, including an estimate of the dividends received deduction, which impact the amount of recognized tax benefits recorded by the Company. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors as deemed appropriate. As facts and circumstances dictate, these estimates and assumptions may be adjusted. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates, including those resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment, will be reflected in the financial statements in the periods the estimates are changed.

Investments

Bonds, excluding asset-backed securities, are stated at amortized cost except those with an NAIC designation of “6,” which are stated at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Acquisition premiums and discounts are amortized into investment income through call or maturity dates using the effective interest method.

Jackson recognizes an other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") for non-asset-backed securities when the Company does not expect full recovery of amortized cost. These impairment losses are recognized in net realized capital losses for the full difference between fair value and amortized cost.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Asset-backed securities are stated at amortized cost except those with an NAIC designation of “6,” which are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value asset-backed securities that are reported with NAIC designations that are of high credit quality at the time of acquisition and continues to apply this method unless the security is other-than-temporarily impaired. The prospective adjustment method is applied for all other asset-backed securities.

Investments are reduced to estimated fair value (discounted cash flows for asset-backed securities) for declines in value that are determined to be other-than-temporary. In determining whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the Company considers a security’s forecasted cash flows as well as the severity and duration of depressed fair values.

If the Company intends to sell an impaired asset-backed security or does not have the intent and ability to retain the impaired asset-backed security for a period of time sufficient to recover the amortized cost basis, an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. In these situations, the other-than-temporary impairment loss recognized is the difference between the amortized cost basis and fair value. For asset-backed securities, the credit portion of the recognized loss is recorded to the AVR and the non-credit portion is recorded to the IMR. If the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis when compared to the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, it cannot assert that it has the ability to recover the asset-backed security’s amortized cost basis even though it has no intent to sell and has the intent and ability to retain the asset-backed security. Therefore, an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred and a realized loss is recognized for the non-interest related decline, which is calculated as the difference between the asset-backed security’s amortized cost basis and the present value of cash flows expected to be collected. For situations where an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized, the previous amortized cost basis less the other-than-temporary impairment recognized as a realized loss becomes the new amortized cost basis of the asset-backed security. The new amortized cost basis is not adjusted for subsequent recoveries in fair value. Therefore, the prospective adjustment method is used for periods subsequent to other-than-temporary impairment loss recognition.

Unaffiliated common stocks are stated at fair value. The Company’s investments in subsidiaries are recorded based on the equity method. Insurance subsidiaries are reported at their audited statutory capital and surplus and non-insurance subsidiaries are carried at their audited equity as determined under GAAP. The Company has non-admitted $1.6 million of the unaudited equity of five subsidiaries in 2025. The Company had non-admitted $1.8 million of the unaudited equity of five subsidiaries in 2024. Included in common stocks is the Company’s 100% interest in the common stock of Jackson National Life Insurance Company of New York (“Jackson New York”). Jackson New York's financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services. The State of New York has adopted certain prescribed practices that differ from those found in NAIC SAP:

•Reserves for fixed deferred annuities are valued under Continuous CARVM according to New York insurance law, rather than Curtate CARVM according to NAIC SAP.

•For variable annuity and RILA reserves, New York insurance law incorporates Valuation Manual-21 ("VM-21") but also includes an additional floor calculation. Jackson New York reserves are not valued solely under VM-21 according to NAIC SAP, but rather, are valued with the additional floor calculation according to New York insurance law.

•For payout business, New York insurance law requires an adapted version of VM-22 for purposes of defining minimum reserve standards, thus, reserves for payout business are not valued according to VM-22 as defined by the NAIC SAP, but rather, are valued per New York regulation.

The effect of the prescribed practices is a decrease to income of $11.2 million and a decrease to surplus of $29.8 million. The risk based capital of Jackson New York would not have triggered a regulatory event had it not used these prescribed practices according to New York insurance law.

Preferred stocks are stated at amortized cost, except those with an NAIC designation of “4” to “6,” which are reported at the lower of cost or fair value.

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Limited partnership interests, including limited liability company interests, are carried at fair value. Distributions of earnings from these entities are recorded as investment income and unrealized gains and losses are credited or charged directly to surplus. Included in limited partnership interests was $82.4 million and $79.4 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, of the Company’s 100% ownership of member interests in the following entities: Jackson National Asset Management, LLC, a registered investment advisor and transfer agent; and Jackson National Life Distributors, LLC, a registered broker-dealer. The Company has non-admitted its 100% ownership interests totaling $2.3 million at both December 31, 2025 and 2024, in PGDS (US One), LLC, which provided certain services to Jackson and certain former affiliates; and Hermitage Management, LLC, which holds and manages certain real estate related investments.

Residual tranche investments are measured under the practical expedient. With this approach, no interest or investment income is recognized until the residual tranche has a BACV of zero. An OTTI is recorded if the fair value of the residual is less than the BACV with the fair value becoming the new BACV. The OTTI is reported as a realized loss.

Capital notes and surplus notes are stated at amortized cost, except those with an NAIC designation of “3” to “6,” which are reported at the lower of cost or fair value.

Debt securities that do not qualify as bonds are carried at the lower of cost or market value. Changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses.

The Company also acquires controlling ownership interests in companies through troubled debt restructuring arrangements. These investments are held for sale and are not operated as subsidiaries. These equity investments are carried at fair value.

Derivative instruments afforded hedge accounting treatment are accounted for in a manner consistent with the hedged items. Derivative instruments not afforded hedge accounting treatment are stated at fair value. See Note 5 for more information on derivative instruments. The Company generally does not account for derivative instruments as either fair value or cash flow hedges as might be permitted if specific hedging documentation requirements were followed.

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, are carried at amortized cost. Cash equivalents include high quality money market instruments and bonds with maturities that are less than three months from purchase date and short-term investments include bonds with maturities that are less than twelve months from purchase date.

Mortgage loans are carried at aggregate unpaid principal balances, net of unamortized discounts and premiums, impairments and any allowance for loan losses.

On a periodic basis, Jackson assesses the mortgage loan portfolio for the need for an allowance for loan losses. In determining its allowance for loan losses, the Company evaluates each loan to determine if it is probable that amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The allowance includes loan specific reserves for loans that are determined to be non-performing as a result of this loan review process. The loan specific portion of the loss allowance is based on the Company’s assessment as to ultimate collectability of loan principal and interest, or other value expected in lieu of loan principal and interest. This review contemplates a variety of factors which may include, but are not limited to, current economic conditions, the physical condition of the property, the financial condition of the borrower, and the near and long-term prospects for change in these conditions. Changes in the allowance for loan losses are recorded in surplus.

Separately, Jackson also reviews individual loans in the portfolio for impairment charge-off based on an assessment of the factors identified above. Impairments deemed other-than-temporary requiring charge-off are recorded initially against the established loan loss allowance if any, and, if necessary, any additional amounts are recorded as realized losses. As deemed necessary based on cash flow expectations and other factors, Jackson may place loans on non-accrual status. In this case, all cash received is applied against the carrying value of the loan.

Policy loans are loans the Company issues to contract holders that use the cash surrender value of their life insurance policy or annuity contract as collateral. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Real estate is carried at depreciated cost, net of encumbrances. Buildings are depreciated over their estimated useful life, up to 40 years.

Realized capital gains and losses are recorded at the date of sale and are calculated on a specific cost identification basis.

Life and Annuity Reserves

Aggregate reserves for life insurance policies are based on statutory mortality and interest requirements without consideration for withdrawals. With respect to ordinary policies, the mortality assumptions range from the American Experience Table to the 1980/2017 Commissioners’ Standard Ordinary Tables with interest assumptions ranging from 1.00% to 7.00%. With respect to older industrial policies, the mortality assumptions range from the American Experience Table to the 1961 Commissioners’ Standard Industrial Table with interest assumptions ranging from 2.50% to 6.00%. As of both December 31, 2025 and 2024, 32% of the life reserves were calculated on a net level reserve basis and 68% were calculated on a modified reserve basis.

As it relates to VM-20, the Company meets the conditions for exemption under Subsection 1.G.2.b. of the Valuation Manual and filed the statement of exemption required by Subsection 1.G.1. of the Valuation Manual with the State of Michigan DIFS in a letter dated April 26, 2022. Because all conditions outlined in Subsection 1.G.1. have been met for continued use, all policies issued since 2022 are also covered by this statement of exemption and follow reserving standards mentioned above.

Reserves for variable annuity and RILA products and related guarantees are determined using Actuarial Guideline 43 and VM-21. Reserves are set equal to the stochastic reserve plus the additional standard projection amount. The stochastic reserve uses prudent estimate assumptions for items such as expenses, mortality and policyholder behavior, as well as “real world” stochastically generated equity and interest rate scenarios. The additional standard projection amount is based on assumptions prescribed by the regulation. Both the additional standard projection amount and stochastic reserve are adjusted to reflect the impact of hedge instruments owned on the valuation date, and the stochastic reserve is adjusted to reflect future assumed hedging activity.

As previously described in Note 2, Michigan law prescribes the valuation of fixed index annuities without consideration of Actuarial Guideline 35.

The majority of all other annuity reserves and GIC deposits are established with an interest rate assumption ranging from 2.25% to 8.75% and are carried at the greater of the cash surrender value or the greatest present value of the guaranteed benefits discounted at statutory valuation interest rates.

Jackson and Jackson National Life Global Funding have established a $32.0 billion aggregate Global Medium Term Note program. Jackson National Life Global Funding was formed as a statutory business trust, solely for the purpose of issuing Medium Term Note instruments to institutional investors, the proceeds of which are deposited with Jackson and secured by the issuance of funding agreements. The liability for the outstanding balances at December 31, 2025 and 2024 totaled $8.0 billion and $6.0 billion, respectively, and these liabilities are included in liability for deposit-type contracts. Issued instruments representing obligations denominated in a foreign currency have been hedged for changes in exchange rates using cross-currency swaps.

In February 2025, the Company established a Funding Agreement Backed Commercial Paper (“FABCP”) program. Under the program, commercial paper notes (“FABCP Notes”) are issued by Jackson National Life Short Term Funding, LLC (“the Issuer”), which deposits the proceeds from the sale of the FABCP Notes under a funding agreement between the Issuer and the Company. The liability for the outstanding balance at December 31, 2025 totaled $626.4 million and is included in liability for deposit-type contracts. The current maximum aggregate principal amount permitted to be outstanding at any one time under the FABCP program is $3.0 billion.

Jackson is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (“FHLBI”) primarily for the purpose of participating in the bank’s mortgage-collateralized loan advance program with short-term and long-term funding facilities. Members are required to purchase and hold a minimum amount of FHLBI capital stock, plus additional stock based on outstanding advances. Advances are in the form of short-term or long-term notes or funding agreements issued to FHLBI and held in the general account.

Interest Maintenance Reserve

The Company is required to maintain an IMR, which is a reserve for the net, after tax, accumulated unamortized realized gains and losses on sales of fixed income investments primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. Net realized gains and losses charged or credited to the IMR are amortized into investment income over the approximate remaining life of the investment sold using the grouped method.

Gains or losses resulting from MVA on policies and contracts backed by assets that are valued at BACV are deferred in the IMR and amortized in a manner consistent with the determination of the MVA using the grouped method.

Realized gains and losses included in IMR on sales of fixed income investments subject to a funds withheld arrangement are released from the IMR and transferred to the liability for funds held under coinsurance with no impact to income.

The Company allocated gains and losses to IMR from derivatives that were reported at fair value prior to the termination of the derivatives. The balances in IMR from these derivatives were unamortized gains of $42.5 million and $43.9 million and unamortized losses of $257.4 million and $294.2 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Fixed income investments generating IMR losses comply with the Company's documented investment or liability management policies. Any deviation was either because of a temporary and transitory timing issue or related to a specific event that mechanically made the cause of IMR losses not reflective of reinvestment activities.

IMR losses for fixed income related derivatives are all in accordance with prudent and documented risk management procedures, in accordance with the Company's derivative use plans and reflect symmetry with historical treatment in which unrealized derivative gains were reversed to IMR and amortized in lieu of being recognized as realized gains upon derivative termination. Asset sales were not compelled by liquidity pressures.

Asset Valuation Reserve

The Company is required to maintain an AVR, which is computed in accordance with a formula prescribed by the NAIC and represents a provision for potential credit-related investment losses. Changes in the AVR are recorded directly to surplus.

Revenue and Expense Recognition

Premiums for traditional life insurance are recognized as revenue when due. Annuity considerations are recognized as revenue when collected. Premiums for GICs and deposit-type contracts are recorded directly to policy reserves. Interest credited to deposit-type contracts is recorded as an expense in the statement of operations when earned. Payments that represent a return of policyholder balances are not recorded as expenses. To the extent such payments differ from the recorded reserve, the difference is recorded in the statement of operations as a benefit expense. Fee income is recognized as revenue when earned. Commission and expense allowances, which are commission and expense reimbursements related to reinsurance ceded to other companies, are recognized as revenue when due. The CARVM allowance represents the excess of separate account contract values over statutory separate account reserves for variable annuities and variable life and is reported in accrued transfers to separate accounts. Benefits, claims and expenses (including the change in CARVM allowance) are recognized when incurred. Commissions, general expenses, and taxes, licenses and fees, including costs of acquiring new business, are charged to operations as incurred.

Investment Income

Income due and accrued was excluded from surplus on the following basis:

Bonds - securities in default and otherwise where collection is uncertain.

Mortgage loans - loans in foreclosure deemed in default, delinquent for greater than one year or where collection of interest is uncertain.

Real estate - properties where rent is in arrears for more than three months.

Income due and accrued on investments where collection is not likely has been excluded from net investment income. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the amounts excluded from investment income were $5.2 million, $1.1 million, and $0.9 million, respectively.

The following table provides the gross, nonadmitted and admitted amounts for interest income due and accrued (in thousands):


Interest Income Due and Accrued	Amount
Gross	$	559,155
Nonadmitted	$	795
Admitted	$	558,360

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $1.1 million and $363 thousand, respectively, in aggregate deferred interest.

At December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company had $13.2 million, $17.4 million, and $10.0 million cumulative amounts of paid-in-kind interest, respectively.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is charged to operations on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Furniture and EDP equipment and software are depreciated over three to seven years. Furniture and equipment, except for certain EDP equipment and software reported in other admitted assets, is non-admitted. Depreciation expense on admitted assets totaled $2.8 million, $1.2 million, and $0.2 million for 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, while depreciation expense on non-admitted assets totaled $16.5 million, $14.7 million, and $14.4 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income taxes are charged to operations based on current taxable income. Current year federal income tax expense is based on financial reporting income or loss adjusted for certain differences, which are the result of dissimilar financial reporting and tax basis accounting methods, and the corporate alternative minimum tax ("CAMT"). A net DTA, for the tax effect of timing differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, is allowed to be reported as an admitted asset only to the extent that it is realizable within three years up to 15% of capital and surplus (adjusted to exclude any net DTAs, EDP equipment and operating system software and any net positive goodwill), with the change in net deferred tax asset or liability being recorded directly to surplus. See Note 8 - Federal Income Taxes, for additional information on these accounting policies.

Non-admitted Assets

Certain assets designated as "non-admitted assets" (principally net deferred tax assets not realizable within three years, agents' debit balances, furniture, equipment, computer software, prepaid expenses, certain other receivables, and investments in certain common stocks and limited liability corporations) have been excluded from the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus by a direct charge to surplus.

Separate Account Assets and Liabilities

The assets and liabilities associated with variable life and variable annuity contracts, which aggregated $218.8 billion and $212.0 billion at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, are segregated in insulated separate accounts. The Company receives fees for assuming mortality and certain expense risks and for providing guaranteed benefits under the variable annuity contracts. These fees are recorded as earned.

The Company previously had a group variable annuity contract designed for use in connection with and issued to the Company’s Defined Contribution Retirement Plan, which was liquidated October 1, 2025. The deposits were previously allocated to the non-guaranteed, insulated Jackson National Separate Account – II and aggregated $208.3 million at December 31, 2024.

The assets and liabilities associated with RILA are allocated to a non-insulated separate account and aggregated $15.3 billion and $9.4 billion at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Subsequent Events

On February 11, 2026, Jackson Financial entered into a non-exclusive investment management arrangement with TPG Inc ("TPG") with a 10-year initial term with automatic 1-year renewals through year 15, subject to various termination provisions, with TPG providing Investment Grade Asset Based Finance and Direct Lending investment capabilities to complement the asset management capabilities of PPM America, Inc. ("PPM"), an affiliate of Jackson. Under the agreement, PPM will continue to manage the majority of Jackson’s investment portfolio and both Jackson and PPM will retain oversight of Jackson’s investment portfolio.

The Company has evaluated events through March 20, 2026, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Note 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value measurements are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s view of market assumptions in the absence of observable market information. Jackson utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. All financial assets and liabilities are required to be classified into one of the following categories:

Level 1 Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 securities include government securities and exchange traded equity securities and derivative instruments.

Level 2 Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities. Most debt securities that are priced using observable inputs and freestanding derivative instruments that are priced using models with observable market inputs are included in Level 2.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Level 3 Valuations that are derived from techniques in which one or more of the significant inputs are unobservable (including assumptions about risk). Level 3 includes limited partnership interests and less liquid securities such as certain highly structured or lower quality asset-backed securities. Because Level 3 fair values, by their nature, contain unobservable market inputs, considerable judgment may be used to determine the Level 3 fair values. Level 3 fair values represent the Company’s best estimate of an amount that could be realized in a current market exchange absent actual market exchanges.

In many situations, inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In these situations, the Company determines the level in which the fair value falls based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the determination of the fair value. As a result, both observable and unobservable inputs may be used in the determination of fair values that the Company has classified within Level 3.

The Company determines the fair values of certain financial assets and liabilities based on quoted market prices, where available. The Company may also determine fair value based on estimated future cash flows discounted at the appropriate current market rate. When appropriate, fair values reflect adjustments for counterparty credit quality, the Company’s credit standing, liquidity and risk margins on unobservable inputs.

Where quoted market prices are not available, fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market data, as well as the best information about the individual financial instrument. At times, illiquid market conditions may result in inactive markets for certain of the Company’s financial instruments. In such instances, there may be no or limited observable market data for these assets and liabilities. Fair value estimates for financial instruments deemed to be in an illiquid market are based on judgments regarding current economic conditions, liquidity discounts, currency, credit and interest rate risks, loss experience and other factors. These fair values are estimates and involve considerable uncertainty and variability as a result of the inputs selected and may differ materially from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. As a result of market inactivity, such calculated fair value estimates may not be realizable in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument. In addition, changes in the underlying assumptions used in the fair value measurement technique could significantly affect these fair value estimates.

The following is a discussion of the methodologies used to determine the fair values of the financial instruments.

Bonds and Equity Securities

The fair values for bonds and equity securities are determined using information available from independent pricing services, broker-dealer quotes, or internally derived estimates. Priority is given to publicly available prices from independent sources, when available. Securities for which the independent pricing service does not provide a quotation are either submitted to independent broker-dealers for prices or priced internally. Typical inputs used by these three pricing methods include, but are not limited to, reported trades, benchmark yields, credit spreads, liquidity premiums, and/or estimated cash flows based on default and prepayment assumptions.

As a result of typical trading volumes and the lack of specific quoted market prices for most debt securities, independent pricing services will normally derive the security prices through recently reported trades for identical or similar securities, making adjustments through the reporting date based upon available market observable information as outlined above. If there are no recently reported trades, the independent pricing services and broker-dealers may use matrix or pricing model processes to develop a security price where future cash flow expectations are developed based upon collateral performance and discounted at relevant market rates. Certain securities are priced using broker-dealer quotes, which may utilize proprietary inputs and models. Additionally, the majority of these quotes are non-binding and are classified as Level 3.

Included in the pricing of asset-backed securities are estimates of the rate of future prepayments of principal over the remaining life of the securities. Such estimates are derived based on the characteristics of the underlying structure and prepayment assumptions believed to be relevant for the underlying collateral. Actual prepayment experience may vary from these estimates.

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Internally derived estimates may be used to develop a fair value for securities for which the Company is unable to obtain either a reliable price from an independent pricing service or a suitable broker-dealer quote. These fair value estimates may incorporate Level 2 and Level 3 inputs and are generally derived using expected future cash flows, discounted at market interest rates available from market sources based on the credit quality and duration of the instrument. For securities that may not be reliably priced using these internally developed pricing models, a fair value may be estimated using indicative market prices. These prices are indicative of an exit price, but the assumptions used to establish the fair value may not be observable or corroborated by market observable information and, therefore, represent Level 3 inputs.

The Company performs a monthly analysis on the prices and credit spreads received from third parties to ensure that the prices represent a reasonable estimate of the fair value. This process involves quantitative and qualitative analysis and is overseen by investment and accounting professionals. Examples of procedures performed include, but are not limited to, initial and ongoing review of third party pricing service methodologies, review of pricing statistics and trends, back testing recent trades and monitoring of trading volumes. In addition, the Company considers whether prices received from independent broker-dealers represent a reasonable estimate of fair value through the use of internal and external cash flow models, which are developed based on spreads and, when available, market indices. As a result of this analysis, if the Company determines there is a more appropriate fair value based upon the available market data, the price received from the third party may be adjusted accordingly.

For those securities that were internally valued at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the pricing model used by the Company utilizes current spread levels of similarly rated securities to determine the market discount rate for the security. Furthermore, appropriate risk premiums for illiquidity and non-performance are incorporated in the discount rate. Cash flows, as estimated by the Company using issuer-specific default statistics and prepayment assumptions, are discounted to determine an estimated fair value.

On an ongoing basis, the Company reviews the independent pricing services’ valuation methodologies and related inputs, and evaluates the various types of securities in its investment portfolio to determine an appropriate fair value hierarchy distribution based upon trading activity and the observability of inputs. Based on the results of this evaluation, each price is classified into Level 1, 2, or 3. Most prices provided by independent pricing services are classified into Level 2 due to their use of market observable inputs.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, bonds valued internally, including matrix-priced securities, had a BACV of $5.3 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively, and an estimated fair value of $4.9 billion and $5.0 billion at 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Mortgage Loans

Fair values are generally determined by discounting expected future cash flows at current market interest rates, inclusive of a credit spread, for similar quality loans. For loans whose value is dependent on the underlying property, fair value is the estimated value of the collateral. Certain characteristics considered significant in determining the spread or collateral value may be based on internally developed estimates. As a result, these investments have been classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Mortgage loans held under the funds withheld reinsurance agreement are valued using third-party pricing services, which may use economic inputs, geographical information, and property specific assumptions in deriving the fair value price. The Company reviews the valuations from these pricing providers to ensure they are reasonable. Due to lack of observable inputs, these investments have been classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Policy Loans

Policy loans are funds provided to policyholders in return for a claim on the policies values and function like demand deposits which are redeemable upon repayment, death or surrender, and there is only one market price at which the transaction could be settled – the then current carrying value. The funds provided are limited to the cash surrender value of the underlying policy. The nature of policy loans is to have a negligible default risk as the loans are fully collateralized by the value of the policy. Policy loans do not have a stated maturity and the balances and accrued interest are repaid either by the policyholder or with proceeds from the policy. Due to the collateralized nature of policy loans and unpredictable timing of payments, the Company believes the carrying value of policy loans approximates fair value.

______________________________________________________________________________

Derivative Instruments

Fair values for derivatives priced using valuation models incorporate inputs that are predominantly observable in the market. Inputs used to value derivatives include, but are not limited to, interest rate swap curves, credit spreads, interest rates, counterparty credit risk, equity volatility and equity index levels.

Derivative instruments classified as Level 1 include futures, which are traded on active exchanges.

Derivative instruments classified as Level 2 include interest rate swaps, cross currency swaps, cross currency total return swaps, cross currency forwards, credit default swaps, put swaptions and equity index call and put options, and bond forwards. The derivative valuations are determined by third party pricing services using pricing models with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Derivative instruments classified as Level 3 include interest rate contingent options that are valued by third-party pricing services utilizing significant unobservable inputs.

Limited Partnership Interests

Fair values for limited partnership interests are generally determined using the proportion of the Company's investment in the value of the net assets of each fund (“NAV equivalent”) as a practical expedient for fair value, and generally, are recorded on a three-month lag. No material adjustments were deemed necessary at December 31, 2025 or 2024.

The Company’s limited partnership interests are not redeemable, and distributions received are generally the result of liquidation of the underlying assets of the partnerships. The Company generally has the ability under the partnership agreements to sell its interest to another limited partner with the prior written consent of the general partner. In cases when the Company expects to sell the limited partnership interest, the estimated sales price is used to determine the fair value rather than the practical expedient. These limited partnership interests are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

In cases when a limited partnership’s financial statements are unavailable and a NAV equivalent is not available or practical, the fair value may be based on an internally developed model or provided by the general partner as determined using private transactions, information obtained from the primary co-investor or underlying company, or financial metrics provided by the lead sponsor. These investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Separate Account Assets

For the insulated separate account, assets are comprised of investments in mutual funds that transact regularly, but do not trade in active markets as they are not publicly available, and are categorized as Level 2 assets. For the non-insulated separate account, assets include bonds (refer to fair value discussion above), commercial and residential mortgage loans and cash equivalents.

Reserves for Guaranteed Investment Contracts

Fair value is based on the present value of future cash flows discounted at current market interest rates.

Payable for Securities Lending

The Company’s payable for securities lending is set equal to the cash collateral received. Due to the short-term nature of the loans, carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value and is classified as Level 2.

Funds Held Under Reinsurance Treaties

The fair value of the funds held is equal to the fair value of the assets held as collateral, which primarily consist of policy loans, debt securities, and mortgage loans.

Repurchase Agreements

Carrying value of the Company’s repurchase agreements is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value due to their short-term maturities and are classified as Level 2.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Separate Account Liabilities

For the insulated separate account, separate account liabilities are carried at the fair value of the separate account assets, which are comprised of investments in mutual funds that transact regularly, but do not trade in active markets as they are not publicly available, and, are categorized as Level 2. For the non-insulated separate account, fair values for RILA are determined using projected future cash flows discounted at current market interest rates and are allocated between the separate and general accounts in accordance with admitted reserves.

Borrowed Money and Interest Thereon

Carrying value of the short-term borrowings is considered a reasonable estimate for fair value due to their short-term maturity. Fair value of surplus notes is based on the present value of future cash flows discounted at current market interest rates.

Note 4 - Investments

Investments are comprised primarily of debt securities and mortgage loans. Debt securities primarily include publicly traded industrial, asset-backed, utility and government bonds. Asset-backed securities include mortgage-backed and other structured securities. The Company generates the majority of its general account deposits from interest-sensitive annuity contracts, life insurance products and GICs on which it has committed to pay a declared rate of interest. The Company’s strategy of investing in fixed-income securities aims to ensure matching of the asset yield with the amounts credited to the interest-sensitive liabilities and to earn a stable return on its investments.

With the Company’s primarily fixed-rate securities portfolio, it is exposed to interest rate risk, which is the risk that interest rates will change and cause a change in the value of its investments. Additionally, changes in interest rates may cause certain interest-sensitive products to become uncompetitive or may cause disintermediation. The Company mitigates this risk by charging fees for surrenders in early policy years, by offering products that transfer this risk to the purchaser and/or by attempting to match the maturity schedule of its assets with the expected payouts of its liabilities. To the extent that liabilities come due more quickly than assets mature, the Company could potentially have to borrow funds or sell assets prior to maturity and potentially recognize a gain or loss.

Alt-A asset-backed securities are collateralized by mortgage loans made to borrowers who lack credit documentation or necessary requirements to obtain prime borrower rates. Subprime asset-backed securities are collateralized by mortgage loans made to borrowers that have a FICO score of 660 or lower. 70% of the Company’s investments in Alt-A related mortgage-backed securities and 53% of the Company’s investments in subprime related mortgage-backed securities are rated investment grade by the NAIC.

Debt securities also include investments in securities, which are collateralized by commercial mortgage loans (“CMBS”). Of these investments, 99% are rated investment grade by the NAIC.

Corporate securities include direct investments in below investment grade syndicated bank loans. Unlike most corporate debentures, syndicated bank loans are collateralized by specific tangible assets of the borrowers. As such, investors in these securities that become impaired have historically experienced less severe losses than corporate bonds. At December 31, 2025, the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s direct investments in bank loans are $0.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

At December 31, 2025, of the total carrying value for bonds in an unrealized loss position, 99% were investment grade and 1% were below investment grade based on NAIC designation. Unrealized losses on bonds that were below investment grade comprised approximately 1% of the aggregate gross unrealized losses on debt securities.

Issuer credit obligations, excluding government securities, in an unrealized loss position were diversified across industries. As of December 31, 2025, the industries comprising the larger proportion of unrealized losses included utilities (19% of issuer credit obligations gross unrealized losses) and healthcare (13%). The largest unrealized loss related to a single corporate obligor was $54.8 million at December 31, 2025.

The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, estimated fair value and BACV of debt securities at December 31, 2025, by contractual maturity, including those debt securities reported as cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, are shown below (in thousands). Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities where securities can be called or prepaid with or without early redemption penalties.

Effective yields, which are used to calculate amortization, are adjusted periodically to reflect actual payments to date and anticipated future payments. Other than as discussed below for certain asset-backed securities, resultant adjustments to carrying values are included in investment income using the retrospective method. Prepayment assumptions for asset-backed securities were obtained from independent providers of broker-dealer estimates.

With regard to certain asset-backed securities deemed to be high-risk, meaning the Company might not recover substantially all of its recorded investment, changes in investment yields due to changes in estimated future cash flows are accounted for on a prospective basis. The BACV of securities changing from the retrospective to the prospective methodology in 2025 and 2024 was $50.6 million and $77.5 million, respectively.

Debt securities are classified into six NAIC quality categories. These categories range from Class 1 (the highest) to Class 6 (the lowest). Performing securities are designated Classes 1 - 5. Securities in or near default are designated Class 6. Securities designated as Class 3, 4, 5, and 6 are non-investment grade securities. If a designation is not currently available from the NAIC, the Company’s investment advisor provides the designation. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s investment advisor provided the designation for debt securities with carrying values and estimated fair values of $346.4 million and $317.7 million, respectively.

The NAIC approved guidance to adjust the ratings (NAIC 1 through NAIC 6) for CMBS, RMBS and certain asset-backed securities. For CMBS and RMBS, the guidance replaces nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSRO”) ratings with a two-step process based upon the book and/or carrying values of each security and prices derived from models developed by an independent third party contracted by the NAIC. For certain asset-backed securities, the guidance replaces NRSRO ratings with a two-step process based upon the book and/or carrying values of each security and prices derived from generic models. This method acknowledges that securities which have a lower comparative carrying value would have a lower risk of further loss and, therefore, a higher rating.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

The Company periodically reviews its debt securities and equities on a case-by-case basis to determine if any decline in fair value to below cost or amortized cost is other-than-temporary. Factors considered in determining whether a decline is other-than-temporary include the length of time a security has been in an unrealized loss position, the severity of the unrealized loss and the reasons for the decline in value and expectations for the amount and timing of a recovery in fair value, and the Company’s intent and ability not to sell a security prior to a recovery in fair value. If it is determined that a decline in fair value of an investment is temporary, an impairment loss is not recorded. If the decline is considered to be other-than-temporary, a realized loss is recorded in the statement of operations. The AVR is also charged for the realized loss, with an offsetting credit to surplus.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Securities the Company determines are underperforming or potential problem securities are subject to regular review. To facilitate the review, securities with significant declines in value, or where other objective criteria evidencing credit deterioration have been met, are included on a watch list. Among the criteria for securities to be included on a watch list are: credit deterioration that has led to a significant decline in fair value of the security; a significant covenant related to the security has been breached; or an issuer has filed or indicated a possibility of filing for bankruptcy, has missed or announced it intends to miss a scheduled interest or principal payment, or has experienced a specific material adverse change that may impair its creditworthiness.

In performing these reviews, the Company considers the relevant facts and circumstances relating to each investment and exercises considerable judgment in determining whether a security is other-than-temporarily impaired. Assessment factors include judgments about an obligor’s current and projected financial position, an issuer’s current and projected ability to service and repay its debt obligations, the existence of, and realizable value of, any collateral backing the obligations and the macro-economic and micro-economic outlooks for specific industries and issuers. This assessment may also involve assumptions regarding underlying collateral such as prepayment rates, default and recovery rates, and third-party servicing capabilities.

Among the specific factors considered are whether the decline in fair value results from a change in the credit quality of the security itself, or from a downward movement in the market as a whole, and the likelihood of recovering the carrying value based on the near-term prospects of the issuer. Unrealized losses that are considered to be primarily the result of market conditions (e.g., changes in interest rates, temporary market illiquidity or volatility, or industry-related events) and where the Company also believes there exists a reasonable expectation for recovery in the near term are usually determined to be temporary. To the extent that factors contributing to impairment losses recognized affect other investments, such investments are also reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment and losses are recorded when appropriate.

In addition to the review procedures described above, investments in asset-backed securities where market prices are depressed are subject to a review of their future estimated cash flows, including expected and stress case scenarios, to identify potential shortfalls in contractual payments. These estimated cash flows are developed using available performance indicators from the underlying assets including current and projected default or delinquency rates, levels of credit enhancement, current subordination levels, vintage, expected loss severity and other relevant characteristics. These estimates reflect a combination of data derived by third parties and internally developed assumptions. Where possible, this data is benchmarked against third-party sources.

Even in the case of severely depressed market values on asset-backed securities, the Company places significant reliance on the results of its cash flow testing and its lack of an intent to sell these securities until their fair values recover when reaching other-than-temporary impairment conclusions with regard to these securities. Other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded on asset-backed securities when the Company forecasts a contractual payment shortfall.

For mortgage-backed securities, credit impairment is assessed using a cash flow model that estimates the cash flows on the underlying mortgages, using the security-specific collateral characteristics and transaction structure. The model estimates cash flows from the underlying mortgage loans and distributes those cash flows to various tranches of securities, considering the transaction structure and any subordination and credit enhancements existing in that structure. The cash flow model incorporates actual cash flows on the mortgage-backed securities through the current period and then projects the remaining cash flows using a number of assumptions, including prepayment speeds, default rates and loss severity.

Specifically for prime and Alt-A RMBS, the assumed default percentage is dependent on the severity of delinquency status, with foreclosures and real estate owned receiving higher rates, but also includes the currently performing loans. At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, assumed default rates for delinquent loans ranged from 10% to 100%. At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, assumed loss severities were applied to generate and analyze cash flows of each bond and ranged from 10% to 45%.

Management develops specific assumptions using available market data, including internal estimates and references to data published by rating agencies and other third-party sources. These estimates are extrapolated along a default timing curve to estimate the total lifetime pool default rate.

The Company currently intends to hold securities with unrealized losses not considered other-than-temporary until they mature or for sufficient time to recover the amortized cost. However, if there are changes in the specific facts and circumstances surrounding a security, or the outlook for its industry sector, the Company may sell the security and realize a loss.

In 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairments on asset-backed securities where the Company has either the intent to sell the securities or may be forced to sell the securities prior to a recovery in value as of the statement date of $1.4 million, $1.0 million, and $8.7 million, respectively.

In 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairments of $56.7 million, $29.7 million, and $11.3 million, respectively, related to asset-backed securities. See Note 17 for a table detailing securities with recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges during 2025.

5GI Securities

The assignment of a 5GI designation to a debt security occurs when the necessary documentation for a full credit analysis does not exist but the security is current on all contractual payments and the Company expects the security to make full payment of all contractual principal and interest. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no debt securities with a 5GI designation.

Note 5 – Derivative Instruments

The Company enters into financial derivative transactions, including, but not limited to, swaps, put-swaptions, futures, forwards and options to reduce and manage business risks. These transactions manage the risk of a change in the value, yield, price, cash flows, credit quality or degree of exposure with respect to assets, liabilities or future cash flows, which the Company has acquired or incurred.

Derivative instruments are held primarily for hedging purposes. Derivative instruments afforded hedge accounting treatment are stated at either amortized cost or fair value and are accounted for in a manner consistent with the hedged items. Derivative instruments not afforded hedge accounting treatment are stated at fair value. Hedge accounting practices are supported by cash flow matching, duration matching and/or scenario testing.

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company began utilizing derivative instruments to economically hedge the equity market exposure related to the Company’s non-qualified voluntary deferred compensation plans. These derivative instruments are not designated as accounting hedges and are carried at fair value.

Fair values for derivative instruments are based on quoted market prices, estimates received from independent pricing services, or valuation pricing models, and generally reflect the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay upon sale or termination of the contracts as of the reporting date.

Cash requirements for derivative instrument activities are limited to settlements, payment commitments on swaps, margin requirements on exchange-traded and cleared derivatives, and collateral posting requirements in accordance with derivatives’ counterparty agreements.

The Company manages the potential credit exposure for over-the-counter derivative contracts through careful evaluation of the counterparty credit standing, collateral agreements, and master netting agreements. The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties; however, it does not anticipate non-performance. There were no charges incurred related to derivative counterparty non-performance during 2025, 2024, and 2023.

All of the Company’s significant over-the-counter financial derivative counterparty master agreements contain netting provisions allowing for the offset of contractual payments either due from or due to counterparties. To the extent that the net market value of aggregate contracts with individual counterparties exceeds established threshold amounts, collateral posting in favor of the exposed party is required. Collateral must be high quality liquid securities or cash as directed by the agreements.

All of these master agreements also contain downgrade triggers that allow the party potentially harmed by the downgrade to, at its option, cause the related transactions to be unwound at market value or to be assigned to a different counterparty. All of these triggers are set in the BBB range and refer to Jackson’s claims paying rating and the counterparties' senior debt rating. The intent of the triggers is to provide for a more orderly unwind of positions than might otherwise take place in the event of a bankruptcy. During 2025 and 2024, no counterparties triggered an event.

Interest rate swap agreements used for hedging purposes generally involve the exchange of fixed and floating payments based on a notional contract amount over the period for which the agreement remains outstanding, without an exchange of the underlying notional amount.

Put-swaption contracts provide the purchaser with the right, but not the obligation, to require the writer to pay the present value of a long-term interest rate swap at future exercise dates. The Company purchases and writes put-swaptions for hedging purposes with original maturities of up to 10 years. Put-swaptions hedge against movements in interest rates. Written put-swaptions may be entered into in conjunction with associated put-swaptions purchased from the same counterparties (“linked put-swaptions”). Linked put-swaptions have identical notional amounts and strike prices, but have different underlying swap terms. Linked put-swaptions are presented at the fair value of the net position for each pair of contracts.

Put-swaption contracts and written put-swaption contracts are included in the related assets and liabilities for derivatives at fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized capital gains or losses.

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

Equity index futures contracts, total return swaps and equity index options (including various call and put options, interest rate-contingent options, currency-contingent options, and put spreads) are used to hedge the Company’s overall net exposure to equities. Interest rate futures contracts and bond forward contracts are used to hedge movements in interest rates. Equity index options (including various call and put options), total return swaps and bond forwards are recorded in derivatives at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as unrealized capital gains or losses. Futures contracts are executed on regulated exchanges through brokers. Variation margin is recorded in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, with changes in variation margin recorded as unrealized capital gains or losses.

Cross-currency total return swaps, which embody spot and forward currency swaps and, in some cases, interest rate and equity index swaps, are entered into for the purpose of hedging the Company issued foreign currency denominated trust instruments supported by funding agreements. Cross-currency total return swaps serve to hedge foreign currency exchange risk embedded in the funding agreements. Cross-currency total return swaps are carried at fair value. The fair value of derivatives embedded in funding agreements, including unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses, are included in the carrying value of the trust instruments supported by funding agreements. Amounts paid or received are netted with amounts paid or received on the hedged foreign currency denominated trust agreements supported by funding agreements. Foreign currency translation gains and losses associated with funding agreement hedging activities are included in unrealized foreign exchange capital gains and losses and realized capital gains and losses.

Cross-currency swaps are over-the-counter agreements to exchange interest and principal payments denominated in different currencies. Cross-currency forwards are over-the-counter agreements to exchange payments denominated in different currencies. Cross-currency swaps and cross-currency forwards are entered into for the purpose of hedging the foreign currency exposure on certain debt securities and mortgage loans held in the investment portfolio. Cross-currency swaps are carried at fair value.

Credit default swaps, with maturities up to five years, are agreements where the Company has purchased default protection on certain underlying corporate bonds held in its portfolio. These contracts allow the Company to sell the protected bonds at par value to the counterparty if a defined “default event” occurs, in exchange for periodic payments made by the Company for the life of the agreement. Credit default swaps are carried at fair value and included in derivatives. Changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized capital gains or losses. The Company does not currently sell default protection using credit default swaps or other similar derivative instruments.

The fair value of derivatives reflects the estimated amounts, net of payment accruals, which the Company would receive or pay upon sale or termination of the contracts at the reporting date. With respect to swaps and put-swaptions, the notional amount represents the stated principal balance used as a basis for calculating payments. With respect to futures and options, the contractual amount represents the market exposure of outstanding positions.

All of Jackson’s master swap agreements contain credit downgrade provisions that allow a party to assign or terminate derivative transactions if the counterparty’s credit rating declines below an established limit. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of Jackson’s net derivative assets by counterparty was $158.8 million and $203.1 million, respectively, and held collateral was $137.8 million and $252.2 million, respectively, related to these agreements. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of Jackson’s net derivative liabilities by counterparty was $237.2 million and $266.5 million, respectively, and provided collateral was $296.7 million and $301.7 million, respectively, related to these agreements. If all of the downgrade provisions had been triggered at December 31, 2025 or 2024, in aggregate, Jackson would have had to disburse nil and $49.1 million, respectively, and would have been allowed to claim $80.6 million and $35.2 million, respectively.

Note 7 - Reinsurance

The Company assumes and cedes reinsurance from and to other insurance companies in order to limit losses from large exposures. However, if the reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations, the originating issuer of the coverage retains the liability. The Company reinsures certain of its risks to other reinsurers under a yearly renewable term, coinsurance or modified coinsurance basis. The Company regularly monitors the financial strength rating of its reinsurers.

Brooke Life Reinsurance Company

Effective January 1, 2024, Jackson entered into a 100% coinsurance funds withheld reinsurance transaction with Brooke Life Reinsurance Company ("Brooke Re"), an affiliated Michigan captive reinsurer regulated by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services created in the first quarter of 2024 for the express purpose of serving as the counterparty to the reinsurance transaction. The transaction provides for the cession from Jackson to Brooke Re of liabilities associated with certain guaranteed benefits under our variable annuity contracts and similar products of Jackson, both in-force on the effective date of the reinsurance agreement and written in the future (i.e., on a “flow” basis) as well as related future fees, claims and other benefits, and maintenance expenses in exchange for a ceding commission for the in-force business. Brooke Re paid a ceding commission of $1.2 billion to Jackson in connection with the execution of the reinsurance transaction, which was reported direct to surplus and will be amortized into income over the life of the business. Jackson retains the variable annuity base contract, the annuity contract administration of the ceded business, and responsibility for investment management of the assets in the funds withheld account supporting the ceded liabilities. The transaction mitigates the impact of the cash surrender value floor on Jackson’s total adjusted capital, statutory required capital, and risk-based capital ratio, and enables more efficient economic hedging of the underlying risks of Jackson’s business. This outcome serves the interests of policyholders by protecting statutory capital through diminished non-economic hedging and related costs. Overall, this transaction allows us to optimize our hedging, stabilize capital generation, and produce more predictable financial results going forward.

As part of the funds withheld coinsurance agreement, Jackson administers the hedging program to manage the economic risks of the ceded liabilities. Jackson enters into any hedges as principal and makes any payments to counterparties, including any required hedge collateral, from its own accounts. As principal, Jackson reflects the hedging instruments and associated activity, including realized and unrealized gains (losses), in its financial statements with a corresponding reinsurance receivable or payable consistent with the impacts to its pre-tax income and other changes to capital and surplus resulting from the underlying hedging activity. Jackson’s pre-tax income and capital and surplus are not impacted by the hedging performed on behalf of Brooke Re under the funds withheld coinsurance agreement.

The funds withheld coinsurance agreement includes settlement provisions for net hedge results between Jackson and Brooke Re over a twelve quarter period with the first quarterly net hedge result amount being allocated to the current quarterly settlement period and each of the remaining eleven quarterly net hedge result amounts being deferred and allocated to subsequent quarterly settlement periods. Future settlement amounts may be accelerated, in whole or in part, by mutual agreement of both parties. The deferred amount is reported in amounts due from reinsurers.

Effective December 1, 2025, the reinsurance agreement with Brooke Re was amended to expand the scope of reinsurance liabilities both in force and for future new business. No ceding commission was paid upon execution of the amendment.

Effective December 1, 2025, Jackson entered into a 100% coinsurance reinsurance transaction with Brooke Re. The transaction provides for the cession from Jackson to Brooke Re of certain liabilities related to organic payout annuity contracts in force as of the effective date. Jackson paid Brooke Re an initial ceding commission of $107.6 million. Jackson retains the annuity contract administration of the ceded business.

Hickory Brooke Reinsurance Company

Effective December 1, 2025, Jackson entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement with Hickory Brooke Reinsurance Company (‘Hickory Re’), a wholly owned subsidiary of Brooke Life Reinsurance Company and captive reinsurer regulated by the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services which was created in the fourth quarter of 2025 for the express purpose of serving as the counterparty to the reinsurance transaction. The transaction provides for the cession from Jackson to Hickory Re, on a quota-share coinsurance basis, certain deferred fixed annuities and deferred fixed indexed annuities issued by Jackson, including annuitization of these contracts, both in-force on the effective date of the reinsurance agreement and written in the future (i.e., on a "flow" basis). Hickory Re paid Jackson an initial ceding commission of $93.8 million. Jackson retains the annuity contract administration of the ceded business.

Under the terms of the agreement, Jackson will perform hedging services on behalf of, and in accordance with the risk management strategy of, Hickory Re. Jackson will enter into derivative contracts as principal and will be responsible for posting of required collateral with derivative counterparties. With sufficient notice, either party may elect to end this hedging program arrangement.

New Reinsurance Company

Effective December 31, 2024, Jackson entered into a quota-share coinsurance agreement with New Reinsurance Company, a Switzerland-domiciled subsidiary of Munich Re, to reinsure liabilities related to certain in-force deferred fixed annuity contracts. The quota-share percentage is defined based upon the guaranteed term of the policy. Per the agreement, Jackson received a $43.9 million ceding commission, which was reported direct to surplus and will be amortized into income as earnings emerge. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the reserve credit related to this transaction with New Reinsurance Company was $45.1 million and $43.9 million, respectively.

Jackson New York

Effective December 31, 2024, the Company amended its reinsurance agreement with Jackson New York. Prior to the amendment, the agreement ceded 90% of the total contract risk associated with the variable annuities issued by Jackson New York to Jackson on a coinsurance basis (modified coinsurance for separate account liabilities). As a result of the amendment, the Company will also assume 90% of the total RILA contract risk on a coinsurance basis (modified coinsurance for separate account liabilities) for better alignment with risk mitigation strategies employed at the parent company level. This treaty covers all existing and future variable annuity and RILA contracts issued by Jackson New York. Premiums assumed from Jackson New York were $1,680.3 million, $821.2 million, and $716.1 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the liability for the reserves assumed from Jackson New York totaled $1,042.4 million and $1,151.3 million, respectively.

Athene Life Re Ltd.

The Company entered into a funds withheld coinsurance agreement with Athene Life Re Ltd. effective June 1, 2020 to reinsure on a 100% quota share basis, a block of Jackson's in-force fixed and fixed index annuity product liabilities in exchange for a $1,196.3 million ceding commission. The $981.5 million ceding commission, net of tax, was reported direct to surplus and will be amortized into income over the life of the business. In addition, $59.6 million of the IMR reserve was released from the IMR reserve and transferred to Athene under the reinsurance arrangement.

Pursuant to the Athene reinsurance agreement, the Company holds certain assets, primarily debt securities and mortgage loans, as collateral with a corresponding liability reported as funds held under coinsurance on the statements of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus. The income and realized gains on these assets are reported in income with a corresponding offset reported in interest on funds withheld treaties, with no impact on net income.

To further support its obligations under the reinsurance agreements, Athene procured letters of credit for Jackson’s benefit and established a trust account for Jackson’s benefit, which had a book value of approximately $109.7 million and $85.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

John Hancock Life Insurance Company

The Company has agreements with John Hancock Life Insurance Company ("John Hancock") and John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York (“John Hancock New York”) to reinsure Group Payout Annuities. On December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company included $360.7 million and $216.1 million, respectively, of miscellaneous group annuity reserves initially established by John Hancock and John Hancock New York. The additional reserves are in excess of those required under minimum statutory standards.

Squire Re II

In 2016, the Company executed a reserve financing transaction with Squire Re II, a captive reinsurance entity domiciled in Michigan. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company ceded $337.2 million, $350.1 million, respectively, of level premium term reserves under a funds withheld 100% coinsurance treaty. The Company holds certain assets, primarily debt securities, as collateral. This collateral is reported as funds held under coinsurance on the statements of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus. The income and realized gains on these assets are reported in income and with a corresponding offset reported in interest on funds withheld treaties, with no impact on net income.

Swiss Re

The Company has three retro treaties with Swiss Re. Pursuant to these retro treaties, the Company ceded to Swiss Re on a 100% coinsurance basis, subject to pre-existing reinsurance with other parties, certain blocks of business. These blocks of business include disability income and accident and health business, a mix of life and annuity insurance business, and corporate owned life insurance business.

Pursuant to the retro treaties, the Company holds certain assets, primarily policy loans and debt securities, as collateral. This collateral is reported as funds held under reinsurance treaties with unauthorized reinsurers on the statements of admitted assets, liabilities, capital and surplus. The income and realized gains on these assets are reported in income with a corresponding offset reported in interest on funds withheld treaties, with no impact on net income.

The Company has also acquired certain lines of business that are wholly ceded to non-affiliates. These include direct and assumed accident and health business, direct and assumed life insurance business, and certain institutional annuities.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, assets of $1,007.9 million and $1,092.2 million, respectively, were held in trust pursuant to the 100% coinsurance transactions with Swiss Re.

Other Reinsurance

On May 29, 2019, the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services revoked the status of an accredited reinsurer in Michigan. In July 2023, the reinsurer was ordered into liquidation. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the liability for reinsurance in authorized companies was recognized as a loss, with no impact to capital and surplus.

For reinsurance of in force liabilities that resulted in a gain, the impact of the transactions, net of tax, was excluded from net income and recorded directly to surplus, and will be amortized into income as earnings emerge from the business reinsured.

The effect of reinsurance on premiums are as follows (in thousands):


	Years Ended December 31,
	2025		2024		2023
Direct premiums and annuity considerations	$	21,245,131	$	17,076,545	$	12,645,332

Total premiums and annuity considerations	$	20,045,040	$	17,595,754	$	13,227,578

Fee income is stated net of reinsurance ceded to Brooke Re. During 2025 and 2024, fee income ceded to Brooke Re was $2.9 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively.

Policy reserves and liabilities are stated net of reinsurance ceded to other companies. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, reserves ceded were $21.6 billion and $21.1 billion, respectively, which included reserves ceded to Brooke Life of $21.2 million and $22.8 million, respectively, reserves ceded to Squire Re II of $337.2 million and $350.1 million, respectively, reserves ceded to Brooke Re of $1,418.8 million and $133.0 million, respectively, and reserves ceded to Hickory Re of $1,599.7 million and nil, respectively.

Note 8 - Federal Income Taxes

The Company is subject to federal income taxation as a life insurance company and files a consolidated federal income tax return with Brooke Life, Jackson New York, Brooke Re, Hickory Re, and Squire Re II. The Company has entered into written tax sharing agreements that are based on separate return calculations with benefits for credits and losses. The Company's portion of any CAMT incurred or the benefit from CAMT credits is based on its share of the impact of CAMT for the consolidated group.

The Company is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and other state and local tax authorities in jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company is not currently under examination with respect to federal income taxes. The IRS completed an examination of the 2019-2023 Brooke Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries federal consolidated returns during 2025 that resulted in no changes. Tax years from 2022 to 2025 remain open under the statute of limitations.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted on July 4, 2025 and includes a broad range of tax reform provisions that impact corporations and are effective starting with the 2025 tax year. At December 31, 2025, the OBBBA did not impact the Company's current income tax liability. At December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a $2.1 million valuation allowance expense related to an OBBBA provision that affected the Company's ability to utilize the deferred tax asset for the charitable contributions carryover.

At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the CAMT current tax impact was nil and a benefit of $163.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the CAMT impact on net capital and surplus was nil and a benefit of $187.4 million, respectively. The U.S. Treasury Department is expected to issue additional guidance after December 31, 2025 that may materially change the estimated provision of the CAMT.

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

The application of SSAP No. 101, requires a company to evaluate the recoverability of deferred tax assets and to establish a valuation allowance if necessary, to reduce the deferred tax asset to an amount which is more likely than not to be realized. Considerable judgment is required in determining whether a valuation allowance is necessary, and if so, the amount of such valuation allowance. In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance the Company considers many factors, including: (1) the nature of the deferred tax assets and liabilities; (2) whether they are ordinary or capital; (3) the timing of their reversal; (4) taxable income in prior carry back years as well as projected taxable earnings, exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carry forwards; (5) the length of time that carryovers can be utilized; (6) unique tax rules that would impact the utilization of the deferred tax assets; and, (7) any tax planning strategies that the Company would employ to avoid a tax benefit from expiring unused. The Company has adopted an accounting policy to analyze the ability to recover the CAMT credit carryover deferred tax asset separately from the deferred tax assets generated under the regular tax system. There were no material modifications to the methodology used to project CAMT.

Although the realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets under the regular tax system and the CAMT credit deferred tax asset will be realized, except for a portion of the charitable contributions carryover deferred tax asset. As of December 31, 2025, based on available evidence, the Company established a valuation allowance in the amount of $2.1 million on a portion of the charitable contributions carryover deferred tax asset which was impacted by the OBBBA and is not more likely than not to be realized. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $6.2 million of CAMT credit carryforwards with an indefinite carryforward period and are limited pursuant to IRC Section 383. No adjustments were made to the CAMT credit carryforward gross deferred tax asset because of a change in circumstances that causes a change in judgment about its realizability.

The change in the net deferred income taxes is comprised of the following (this analysis is exclusive of the non-admitted DTAs as the Change in Non-admitted Assets is reported separately from the Change in Net Deferred Income Taxes in the Statutory Statements of Capital and Surplus) (in thousands):


	2025		2024		Change

Total deferred tax assets	$	2,114,267	$	2,329,421	$	(215,154)
Total deferred tax liabilities	(338,469)		(358,663)		20,194
Net deferred tax assets/liabilities	1,775,798		1,970,758		(194,960)
Statutory valuation allowance adjustment	(2,056)		—		(2,056)
Net DTA after statutory valuation adjustment	1,773,742		1,970,758		(197,016)

Change in net deferred income tax	$	1,582,530	$	1,743,222	$	(160,692)

Note 9 - Capital, Surplus and Dividend Restrictions

Under the Michigan Insurance Code of 1956, the Company must notify the Michigan Director of Insurance prior to payment of any dividend or any other capital distribution. Ordinary dividends on capital stock are subject to a capacity calculation and may only be distributed out of earned surplus. Ordinary dividend capacity is limited to the greater of 10% of statutory surplus as of the preceding year end, excluding any increase arising from the application of permitted practices, or the statutory net income, excluding any net realized investment gains, for the twelve month period ended on the preceding December 31, the result of which is reduced by cumulative dividends and other capital distributions occurring in the preceding twelve-month period. Earned surplus is reported unassigned surplus on the preceding December 31, reduced by any unrealized capital gains and effect of increase from the application of permitted practices, if any. The Michigan Director of Insurance may approve payment of dividends in excess of these amounts, which would be deemed an extraordinary dividend. As a result of cumulative dividends and other capital distributions occurring in the preceding 12 months as of December 31, 2025, future dividends from the Company are generally expected to be classified as extraordinary. The Company has received approval in the past for payments of extraordinary dividends.

The Company paid extraordinary dividends of $240.0 million, $325.0 million, $250.0 million, and $300.0 million on March 17, 2025, June 12, 2025, September 10, 2025, and December 10, 2025, respectively, to its parent, Brooke Life Insurance Company.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company

Notes to Statutory Financial Statements

______________________________________________________________________________

On March 31, 2025, the Company received an ordinary dividend of $75.0 million from its wholly owned subsidiary, Jackson New York.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company remitted a $1,919.8 million return of capital to Brooke Life Insurance Company.

The Company paid extraordinary dividends of $250.0 million, $300.0 million, and $280.0 million on June 20, 2024, September 12, 2024, and December 10, 2024, respectively, to its parent, Brooke Life Insurance Company.

During 2023, the Company remitted a $450.0 million ordinary dividend and a $150.0 million return of capital to Brooke Life.

During 2025 and 2024, changes in the balance of special surplus funds from the prior year are due to the admittance of net negative (disallowed) IMR of $306.3 million and $328.9 million, respectively.

The NAIC has developed certain RBC requirements for life insurance companies. Under those requirements, compliance is determined by a ratio of a company’s total adjusted capital (“TAC”), calculated in a manner prescribed by the NAIC, to its authorized control level RBC (“ACL RBC”), calculated in a manner prescribed by the NAIC. Companies below specific trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. The minimum level of TAC before corrective action commences is twice ACL RBC (“company action level RBC”). At December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 the Company’s TAC remained well in excess of the company action level RBC.

Note 10 - Debt

Surplus Notes

Under Michigan insurance law, the surplus notes are not part of the legal liabilities of the Company and are considered capital and surplus for statutory reporting purposes. Payments of interest or principal may only be made with the prior approval of the Michigan Director of Insurance and only out of surplus earnings which the director determines to be available for such payments under Michigan insurance law.

On March 15, 1997, the Company issued 8.15% surplus notes in the principal amount of $250.0 million due March 15, 2027. These surplus notes were issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, underwritten by a syndicate that included Goldman Sachs & Co., and Morgan Stanley & Co., and are administered by Citibank, N.A. as fiscal agent. The surplus notes are unsecured and subordinated to all present and future indebtedness, policy claims and other creditor claims may not be redeemed at the option of the Company or any holder prior to maturity. Upon approval from DIFS, interest is payable semi-annually on March 15th and September 15th of each year. Interest paid on surplus notes was $20.4 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, life to date interest expense on surplus notes was $580.9 million.

Federal Home Loan Bank Loans

The Company received loans of $50.0 million from the FHLBI under its community investment program in both 2015 and 2014, which amortize on a straight-line basis over the loan term. The weighted average interest rate on these loans was 4.19% in 2025 and 5.13% in 2024. The outstanding balance on these loans was $47.2 million and $52.1 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During 2025, 2024, and 2023, interest expense for these loans totaled $2.0 million, $2.9 million, and $2.9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the loans were collateralized by mortgage-related securities and commercial mortgage loans with a carrying value of $71.4 million and $83.9 million, respectively.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

The Company entered into an advance program with the FHLBI in which interest rates were either fixed or variable based on the FHLBI cost of funds or market rates. Advances averaged $483.0 million during 2025, with a weighted average interest rate of 4.5%. Advances of nil and $700.2 were outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and were recorded in other liabilities. The Company paid interest of $6.6 million, $6.0 million, and $6.6 million on such advances in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The largest outstanding balance at any month end during 2025 and 2024 was $500.3 million and $700.2 million, respectively.

Repurchase Agreements

The Company routinely enters into repurchase agreements whereby the Company agrees to sell and repurchase securities. Repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized borrowings. Collateral securities sold under such agreements continue to be included in invested assets. Cash proceeds received from the sale of securities subject to repurchase agreements are included in liabilities.

During 2024, Jackson executed certain paired repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions totaling $1.5 billion pursuant to master repurchase agreements with participating bank counterparties. Under these transactions, the Company lends securities (e.g., corporate debt securities) to bank counterparties in exchange for U.S. Treasury securities that the Company then uses to provide as collateral. The paired repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions are settled on a net basis. As a result, there was no cash exchanged at initiation of these agreements. The paired transactions are offset within the financial statements and are not included in the following disclosures. These transactions are evergreened and require at least 150-days notice prior to termination.

The maturity time for borrowings are as follows (in thousands):


	2025		2024
Maximum Amount:
Overnight	$	28,000	$	1,823,322

Short-term borrowings under such agreements averaged $1,023.9 million and $1,385.2 million during 2025 and 2024, respectively, with weighted average interest rates of 4.45% in 2025 and 5.07% in 2024. The highest level of short-term borrowings at any month end was $1,868.7 million in 2025 and $1,903.9 million in 2024. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding repurchase agreement balance was $1,001.0 million and $1,540.4 million, respectively, collateralized with U.S. Treasury notes and maturing within 30 days, and was included within repurchase agreements in the balance sheet. In the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral under these agreements, the Company may be required to transfer cash or additional securities as pledged collateral.

Collateral received on secured borrowings is as follows (in thousands):

Note 11 - Life and Annuity Reserves

The Company waives deductions of deferred fractional premiums upon death of the insured and returns premiums paid and due beyond the date of death. A reserve is held where a surrender value is promised in excess of the minimum required basic reserves.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, 92% and 90%, respectively, of annuity reserves and deposit liabilities were subject to surrender charges of at least 5% or at market value in the event of discretionary withdrawal by policyholders.

For policies issued on substandard lives, either the gross premiums are calculated on a rated age basis, or an extra premium is charged in addition to the standard premium at the true issue age. Mean reserves are calculated as the regular mean reserve for the plan at the rated age, the regular mean reserve for the plan at the true issue age plus one-half of the extra premium charged, or a substandard reserve based on the appropriate multiple of the standard.

The Company had insurance in force, for which the gross premiums are less than the net premiums of approximately $9.6 billion and $10.0 billion, at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, according to the valuation standard set by the state of Michigan.

The Company’s incurred but not reported claim provision is based on the Company’s historical experience. The provision was $107.9 million and $106.4 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company issues traditional variable annuity contracts through its separate accounts for which investment income and investment gains and losses accrue directly to, and investment risk is borne by, the contract holder. The Company issues RILA contracts through its separate accounts for which investment risk is borne by the Company. The Company also issues variable and RILA contracts through separate accounts where the Company contractually guarantees to the contract holder either a) return of no less than total deposits made to the contract adjusted for any partial withdrawals, b) total deposits made to the contract adjusted for any partial withdrawals plus a minimum return, or c) the highest contract value on a specified anniversary date adjusted for any withdrawals following the contract anniversary. These guarantees include benefits that are payable in the event of death (guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”)), at annuitization (guaranteed minimum income benefit (“GMIB”)), upon depletion of funds (guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (“GMWB”)), or at the end of a specified period (guaranteed minimum accumulation benefit ("GMAB")).

GMIB benefits are reinsured, subject to aggregate annual claim limits. Deductibles also apply on reinsurance of GMIB business issued since March 1, 2005. Reinsurance credits of $0.5 million and $0.7 million were taken in 2025 and 2024, respectively. Due to the inability to economically reinsure or hedge new issues of the GMIB, the Company discontinued offering the benefit in 2009.

The Company previously issued universal life contracts with secondary guarantees, also called “no-lapse” guarantees. No-lapse guarantees are offered in the form of minimum premium guarantees or no-lapse account values. Reserves are calculated according to the Standard Valuation Law, Universal Life Insurance Model Regulation, Valuation of Life Insurance Policies Model Regulation, and Actuarial Guideline 38. Reserve balances were $930.1 million and $938.9 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Reserve balances were $138.4 million and $128.2 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 12 – Separate Accounts

The assets of the non-guaranteed insulated separate account support variable life and variable annuity products and are carried at fair value. The assets of the guaranteed non-insulated separate account support RILA and are carried at book value, which refers to the value at which those assets would be carried if held in the general account. Reserves of the non-guaranteed separate accounts are subject to discretionary withdrawal at fair value. Reserves for minimum guaranteed death benefits on variable life, variable annuity, and RILA contracts, as well as minimum guaranteed living benefits on variable annuity and RILA contracts, are held in the general account.

The Company has entered into securities lending agreements with agent banks, for the purpose of earning fees, whereby blocks of securities are loaned to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms. The agreements require collateral with a minimum fair value of 102 percent of the fair value of the loaned securities, calculated on a daily basis. To further minimize the credit risks related to these programs, the financial condition of the counterparties is monitored by the agent banks on a regular basis. Cash collateral received is invested by the agent banks for the benefit of the Company and is included on the balance sheet.

Note 15 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the ultimate disposition of such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. Jackson has been named in civil litigation proceedings, which appear to be substantially similar to other class action litigation brought against many life insurers, including allegations of misconduct in the sale of insurance products. The Company accrues for legal contingencies once the contingency is deemed to be probable and reasonably estimable. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, Jackson recorded accruals totaling $566 thousand and $207 thousand, respectively.

The Company has provided an unlimited guarantee for the policyholder obligations of its wholly owned life insurance subsidiary, Jackson New York. The maximum potential amount of future payments cannot be estimated as Jackson New York continues to write new business. This guarantee is not expected to result in future required payments by the Company and is not considered to result in a material contingent exposure of the Company’s assets to liability because the Company and Jackson New York share the same management and Jackson New York is subject to regulatory supervision of the state of New York. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any liability for this guarantee (exception allowed under SSAP No. 5, paragraph 19f).

The Company is a party to an Uncommitted Money Market Line Credit Agreement dated April 6, 2023 among Jackson, Jackson Financial, and Société Générale. This agreement is an uncommitted short-term cash advance facility that provides an additional form of liquidity to Jackson and to Jackson Financial. The aggregate borrowing capacity under the agreement is $500.0 million and each cash advance request must be at least $100 thousand. The interest rate is set by the lender at the time of the borrowing and is fixed for the duration of the advance. Jackson and Jackson Financial are jointly and severally liable to repay any advance under the agreement, which must be repaid prior to the last day of the quarter in which the advance was drawn.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had unfunded commitments related to its investments in limited partnerships and limited liability companies totaling $677.7 million and $928.8 million, respectively, including $64.3 million and $27.7 million, respectively, to limited partnerships and limited liability companies on which the Company has recognized an impairment charge. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had funded commitments related to fixed-rate mortgage loans and other debt securities totaling $319.0 million and $499.0 million, respectively. Lines of credit available to affiliates totaled $135.0 million at both December 31, 2025 and 2024.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had pledged mortgage related securities and commercial mortgage loans with a fair value of $2.7 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively, in connection with funding agreements issued to and borrowed money from the FHLBI. Securities for which all or a portion of Jackson’s holdings have been pledged continue to be reported as invested assets.

In connection with the reinsurance treaty with Jackson New York described in Note 7, Jackson placed high quality securities with a carrying value and fair value of $1,091.8 million and $1,056.3 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025, in a trust for the benefit of Jackson New York. Securities in the trust had a carrying value and fair value at December 31, 2024 of $1,233.0 million and $1,170.4 million, respectively. The trust is required in order for Jackson New York to record a credit for the reserves ceded to Jackson. The securities are reported as invested assets.

In connection with other life business ceded to non-affiliates, Jackson placed high quality securities in a trust for the benefit of the assuming company. These securities had a carrying value and fair value of $273.1 million and $275.3 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025. These securities had a carrying value and fair value at December 31, 2024 of $235.4 million and $229.8 million, respectively. The securities are reported as invested assets.

Note 16 – Share-Based Compensation

2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan

In April 2021, the Jackson Financial’s Board of Directors adopted, and Jackson Financial’s shareholders approved, the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2021 OIP"). The 2021 OIP became effective upon Jackson Financial becoming an independent public company. The Company participates in the 2021 OIP.

The 2021 OIP allows for stock-based awards including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share awards, performance share awards, and deferred share units. The 2021 OIP has a ten-year term, expiring in September 2031. Jackson Financial currently has Restricted Share Unit and Performance Share Unit equity-based compensation awards outstanding. Dividend equivalents are generally accrued on restricted share units and performance share units outstanding as of the record date. These dividend equivalents are paid only on restricted share units and performance share units that ultimately vest. Generally, the requisite service period is the vesting period. In the case of retirement (eligibility for which is based on the associate's age and years of service as provided in the relevant award agreement), awards vest in full, but are subject to the satisfaction of any applicable performance criteria and paid in line with the original vesting date.

Cash settled awards issued under the 2021 OIP are liability-classified awards. These liability-classified awards are carried at fair value as of the reporting date and are recognized in other liabilities along with any accrued compensation expense. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $100.6 million and $102.5 million accrued for future payments under this plan, respectively. Share settled awards issued under the 2021 OIP are equity-classified awards. Jackson Financial allocates a portion of the compensation expense associated with the share-settled awards to Jackson, which the Company settles with Jackson Financial monthly, on a one-month lag.

Restricted Share Units ("RSU"s)

Jackson Financial grants RSUs to certain associates and non-employee directors. The majority of associate RSUs are expected to vest in three equal installments on the first through third anniversaries of the grant date over a 3-year service period, subject to forfeiture and transfer restrictions, and are payable in cash or shares of Jackson Financial common stock at Jackson Financial’s discretion. RSUs have immediate dividend rights and voting rights upon issuance of underlying shares when the share units vest. In lieu of cash dividend payments, the dividends on unvested RSUs are awarded in additional units equal to the value of the dividends, and are subject to the same vesting and distribution conditions as the underlying RSU.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 1,144,427 and 1,460,535, respectively, non-vested RSUs, with a weighted average grant price of $66.05 and $48.90.

Performance Share Units ("PSU"s)

Jackson Financial grants PSUs to certain associates. PSU vesting is contingent on meeting a specified service requirement and the level of achievement of performance conditions. The PSU awards entitle recipients to receive, upon vesting, a number of units that ranges from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs awarded, depending on the level of achievement of the specified performance conditions. For PSUs granted in 2025 and 2024, the awards also include a vesting modifier based on Jackson Financial's performance relative to a defined peer group. The awards are generally expected to vest after a period of three years, subject to forfeiture and transfer restrictions, and are payable in cash or shares of Jackson Financial common stock, generally at the discretion of Jackson Financial. Award recipients have immediate dividend rights and voting rights upon issuance of underlying shares when the share units vest. The dividends on unvested PSUs are awarded in additional units equal to the value of the dividends, and are subject to the same vesting and distribution conditions as the underlying PSUs.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 141,466 and 297,693, respectively, non-vested PSUs, with a weighted average grant price of $49.39 and $40.85.

Compensation Cost

Jackson Financial charges the fair value of the RSUs and PSUs to expense over the requisite service period. The fair value of equity-classified RSUs and PSUs is based on the price of Jackson Financial’s common stock on the grant date. The fair value of liability-classified RSUs and PSUs is based on the price of Jackson Financial’s common stock as of the reporting date. For performance-based awards, Jackson Financial estimates the number of shares expected to vest at the end of the performance period based on the probable achievement of the performance objectives. RSUs have graded vesting features and the Company recognizes expense for those awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Jackson Financial recognizes forfeitures as they occur when recognizing share-based compensation expense.

For most of the equity-classified RSUs and PSUs, the fair value is based on the price of Jackson Financial's common stock on the grant date. For PSU equity awards granted in 2025 and 2024, the Company measures fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation that considers the Company’s projected total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to a defined group of peers as well as other inputs to estimate the grant date fair value of awards.

For liability-classified RSUs and most liability-classified PSUs, the fair value is based on the price of Jackson Financial’s common stock as of the reporting date. For PSU liability awards granted in 2023, the Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation that considers the Company’s projected TSR relative to a defined group of peers as well as other inputs to estimate the grant date fair value of awards.

Total compensation expense recognized under the plans was $102.3 million, $131.6 million, and $85.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation cost for RSUs and PSUs under the 2021 OIP as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, was $54.4 million, $52.1 million, and $39.8 million, respectively, with a weighted average recognition period of 1.02 years, 1.09 years, and 1.19 years.

JACKSON NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

Reinsurance Risk Interrogatories

December 31, 2025

Does the reporting entity have any reinsurance contracts subject to A-791 that include a provision, which limits the reinsurer's assumption of significant risks identified as in A-791?

Yes

The Company’s Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefits on Variable Annuities (GMIBs) are reinsured with Chubb Tempest Life Reinsurance LTD. GMIB reinsured benefits are subject to aggregate annual claim limits. Deductibles also apply on reinsurance of GMIB business issued since March 1, 2005. At December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a $510,926 reserve credit in consideration of the GMIB cession that is fully collateralized through a combination of letters of credit and a reinsurance trust. The reserve credit considers the treaty’s risk limiting factors.

Does the reporting entity have any reinsurance contracts not subject to A-791, for which reinsurance accounting was applied and includes a provision that limits the reinsurer's assumption risk?

Does the reporting entity have any reinsurance contracts that contain features described below which result in delays in payment in form or in fact:

Provisions which permit the reporting of losses, or settlements are made, less frequently than quarterly or payments due from the reinsurer are not made in cash within ninety days of the settlement date?

Payment schedule, accumulating retentions from multiple years or any features inherently designed to delay timing of the reimbursement to the ceding entity?

Does the reporting entity reflect a reinsurance accounting credit for any contracts not subject to Appendix A-791 and not yearly renewable term, which meet the risk transfer requirements of SSAP No. 61 for the following?

Assumption Reinsurance?

Non-proportional reinsurance, which does not result in significant surplus relief?

Does the reporting entity cede any risk which is not subject to A-791 and not yearly renewable term reinsurance, under any reinsurance contract during the period covered by the financial statement, and either:

Accounted for that contract as reinsurance under SAP and as a deposit under GAAP; or

Accounted for that contract as reinsurance under GAAP and as a deposit under SAP?
