Evaluation of Fixed Maturity Securities AFS for Credit Loss
Evaluation and Measurement Methodologies
See “Fixed Maturity Securities AFS — Evaluation of Fixed Maturity Securities AFS for Credit Loss — Evaluation and Measurement Methodologies” in Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 Annual Report.
Evaluation of Fixed Maturity Securities AFS in an Unrealized Loss Position
Gross unrealized losses on securities without an ACL increased $815 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 to $11.6 billion primarily due to an increase in interest rates.
As shown in the table above, most of the gross unrealized losses on securities without an ACL that have been in a continuous gross unrealized loss position for 12 months or greater at June 30, 2026, relate to investment grade securities. These unrealized losses are principally due to widening credit spreads since purchase and, with respect to fixed-rate securities, rising interest rates since purchase.
As of June 30, 2026, $104 million of gross unrealized losses on securities without an ACL that have been in a continuous gross unrealized loss position for 12 months or greater on below investment grade securities were concentrated in the consumer, communications and transportation sectors within corporate securities and in foreign government securities. These unrealized losses are the result of significantly wider credit spreads resulting from higher risk premiums since purchase, largely due to economic and market uncertainty and, with respect to fixed-rate securities, rising interest rates since purchase.
At June 30, 2026, the Company did not intend to sell its securities in an unrealized loss position without an ACL, and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these securities before the anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost. Therefore, the Company concluded that these securities had not incurred a credit loss and should not have an ACL at June 30, 2026.
Future provisions for credit loss will depend primarily on economic fundamentals, issuer performance (including changes in the present value of future cash flows expected to be collected), changes in credit ratings and collateral valuation.

ACL Methodology
The Company records an allowance for expected lifetime credit loss in earnings within net investment gains (losses) in an amount that represents the portion of the amortized cost basis of mortgage loans that the Company does not expect to collect, resulting in mortgage loans being presented at the net amount expected to be collected. In determining the Company’s ACL, management applies significant judgment to estimate expected lifetime credit loss, including: (i) pooling mortgage loans that share similar risk characteristics, (ii) considering expected lifetime credit loss over the contractual term of its mortgage loans adjusted for expected prepayments and any extensions, and (iii) considering past events and current and forecasted economic conditions. Each of the Company’s commercial, agricultural and residential mortgage loan portfolio segments are evaluated separately. The ACL is calculated for each mortgage loan portfolio segment based on inputs unique to each loan portfolio segment. On a quarterly basis, mortgage loans within a portfolio segment that share similar risk characteristics, such as internal risk ratings or consumer credit scores, are pooled for calculation of ACL. On an ongoing basis, mortgage loans with dissimilar risk characteristics (i.e., loans with significant declines in credit quality), such as collateral dependent mortgage loans (i.e., when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, including when foreclosure is reasonably possible or probable), are evaluated individually for credit loss. The ACL for loans evaluated individually are established using the same methodologies for all three portfolio segments. For example, the ACL for a collateral dependent loan is established as the excess of amortized cost over the estimated fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, less selling cost. Accordingly, the change in the estimated fair value of collateral dependent loans, which are evaluated individually for credit loss, is recorded as a change in the ACL which is recorded on a quarterly basis as a charge or credit to earnings in net investment gains (losses).
Commercial and Agricultural Mortgage Loan Portfolio Segments
Within each loan portfolio segment, commercial and agricultural loans are pooled by internal risk rating. Estimated lifetime loss rates, which vary by internal risk rating, are applied to the amortized cost of each loan, excluding accrued investment income, on a quarterly basis to develop the ACL. Internal risk ratings are based on an assessment of the loan’s credit quality, which can change over time. The estimated lifetime loss rates are based on several loan portfolio segment-specific factors, including (i) the Company’s experience with defaults and loss severity, (ii) expected default and loss severity over the forecast period, (iii) current and forecasted economic conditions including growth, inflation, interest rates and unemployment levels, (iv) loan specific characteristics including loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratios, and (v) internal risk ratings. These evaluations are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. In its evaluation, the Company uses its several decades of historical default and loss severity experience which capture multiple economic cycles. The Company uses a forecast of economic assumptions for a two-year period for most of its commercial and agricultural mortgage loans, while a one-year period is used for such loans originated in certain markets. After the applicable forecast period, the Company reverts to its historical loss experience using a straight-line basis over two years. For evaluations of commercial mortgage loans, in addition to historical experience, management considers factors that include the impact of a rapid change to the economy, which may not be reflected in the loan portfolio, recent loss and recovery trend experience as compared to historical loss and recovery experience, and loan specific characteristics including debt service coverage ratios (“DSCR”). In estimating expected lifetime credit loss over the term of its commercial mortgage loans, the Company adjusts for expected prepayment and extension experience during the forecast period using historical prepayment and extension experience considering the expected position in the economic cycle and the loan profile (i.e., floating rate, shorter-term fixed rate and longer-term fixed rate) and after the forecast period using long-term historical prepayment experience. For evaluations of agricultural mortgage loans, in addition to historical experience, management considers factors that include increased stress in certain sectors, which may be evidenced by higher delinquency rates, or a change in the number of higher risk loans. In estimating expected lifetime credit loss over the term of its agricultural mortgage loans, the Company’s experience is much less sensitive to the position in the economic cycle and by loan profile; accordingly, historical prepayment experience is used, while extension terms are not prevalent with the Company’s agricultural mortgage loans.
Commercial mortgage loans are reviewed on an ongoing basis, which review includes, but is not limited to, an analysis of the property financial statements and rent roll, lease rollover analysis, property inspections, market analysis, estimated valuations of the underlying collateral, LTV ratios, DSCR and tenant creditworthiness. The monitoring process focuses on higher risk loans, which include those that are classified as restructured, delinquent or in foreclosure, as well as loans with higher LTV ratios and lower DSCR. Agricultural mortgage loans are reviewed on an ongoing basis, which review includes, but is not limited to, property inspections, market analysis, estimated valuations of the underlying collateral, LTV ratios and borrower creditworthiness, as well as reviews on a geographic and property-type basis. The monitoring process for agricultural mortgage loans also focuses on higher risk loans.
For commercial mortgage loans, the primary credit quality indicator is the DSCR, which compares a property’s net operating income to amounts needed to service the principal and interest due under the loan. Generally, the lower the DSCR, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss. The Company also reviews the LTV ratio of its commercial mortgage loan portfolio. LTV ratios compare the unpaid principal balance of the loan to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. Generally, the higher the LTV ratio, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss. The DSCR and the values utilized in calculating the ratio are updated routinely. In addition, the LTV ratio is routinely updated for all but the lowest risk loans as part of the Company’s ongoing review of its commercial mortgage loan portfolio.
For agricultural mortgage loans, the Company’s primary credit quality indicator is the LTV ratio. The values utilized in calculating this ratio are developed in connection with the ongoing review of the agricultural mortgage loan portfolio and are routinely updated.
After commercial and agricultural mortgage loans are approved, the Company makes commitments to lend and, typically, borrowers draw down on some or all of the commitments. The timing of mortgage loan funding is based on the commitment expiration dates. A liability for credit loss for unfunded commercial and agricultural mortgage loan commitments that is not unconditionally cancellable is recognized in earnings and is reported within net investment gains (losses). The liability is based on estimated lifetime loss rates as described above and the amount of the outstanding commitments, which for lines of credit, considers estimated utilization rates. When the commitment is funded or expires, the liability is adjusted accordingly.
Residential Mortgage Loan Portfolio Segment
The Company’s residential mortgage loan portfolio is comprised primarily of purchased closed end, amortizing residential mortgage loans, including both performing loans purchased within 12 months of origination and reperforming loans purchased after they have been performing for at least 12 months post-modification. Residential mortgage loans are pooled by loan type (i.e., new origination and reperforming) and by similar risk profiles (including consumer credit score and LTV ratios). Estimated lifetime loss rates, which vary by loan type and risk profile, are applied to the amortized cost of each loan excluding accrued investment income on a quarterly basis to develop the ACL. The estimated lifetime loss rates are based on several factors, including (i) industry historical experience and expected results over the forecast period for defaults, (ii) loss severity, (iii) prepayment rates, (iv) current and forecasted economic conditions including growth, inflation, interest rates and unemployment levels, and (v) loan pool specific characteristics including consumer credit scores, LTV ratios, payment history and home prices. These evaluations are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. The Company uses industry historical experience which captures multiple economic cycles as the Company has purchased most of its residential mortgage loans in the last five years. The Company uses a forecast of economic assumptions for a two-year period for most of its residential mortgage loans. After the applicable forecast period, the Company reverts to industry historical loss experience using a straight-line basis over one year.
For residential mortgage loans, the Company’s primary credit quality indicator is whether the loan is performing or nonperforming. The Company generally defines nonperforming residential mortgage loans as those that are 60 or more days past due and/or in nonaccrual status which is assessed monthly. Generally, nonperforming residential mortgage loans have a higher risk of experiencing a credit loss.
Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The Company may modify mortgage loans to borrowers. Each mortgage loan modification is evaluated to determine whether the borrower was experiencing financial difficulties. Disclosed below are those modifications, in materially impacted mortgage segments, where the borrower was determined to be experiencing financial difficulties and the mortgage loans were modified by any of the following means: principal forgiveness, interest rate reduction, other-than-insignificant payment delay or maturity extension. The amount, timing and extent of modifications granted and subsequent performance are considered in determining any ACL recorded. All loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties are evaluated individually for credit loss as collateral dependent loans.
These mortgage loan modifications are summarized as follows:

Real estate investments were net of accumulated depreciation of $839 million and $783 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Leased Real Estate Investments — Operating Leases
The Company, as lessor, leases investment real estate, principally commercial real estate for office, apartment and retail use, through a variety of operating lease arrangements, which typically include tenant reimbursement for property operating costs and options to renew or extend the lease. In some circumstances, leases may include an option for the lessee to purchase the property. In addition, certain leases of retail space may stipulate that a portion of the income earned is contingent upon the level of the tenants’ revenues. The Company has elected a practical expedient of not separating non-lease components related to reimbursement of property operating costs from associated lease components. These property operating costs have the same timing and pattern of transfer as the related lease component, because they are incurred over the same period of time as the operating lease. Therefore, the combined component is accounted for as a single operating lease. Risk is managed through lessee credit analysis, property type diversification and geographic diversification.
See Note 10 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2025 Annual Report for a summary of leased real estate investments and earned income by property type.

(1)The related security could be returned to the Company on the next business day, which would require the Company to immediately return the cash collateral.
If the Company is required to return significant amounts of cash collateral on short notice and is forced to sell investments to meet the return obligation, it may have difficulty selling such collateral that is invested in a timely manner, be forced to sell investments in a volatile or illiquid market for less than what otherwise would have been realized under normal market conditions, or both.
The securities lending and repurchase agreement reinvestment portfolios consist principally of high quality, liquid, publicly traded fixed maturity securities AFS, short-term investments, cash equivalents or cash. If the securities in the reinvestment portfolio become less liquid, liquidity resources within the general account are available to meet any potential cash demands when securities are put back by the counterparty.

For information regarding invested assets pledged in connection with derivative transactions, see Note 9.
See “— Securities Lending Transactions and Repurchase Agreements” for information regarding securities supporting securities lending transactions and repurchase agreements. In addition, the Company’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of New York common stock, included within other invested assets, which is considered restricted until redeemed by the issuer, was $628 million at redemption value at both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The Company maintained invested assets and cash and cash equivalents that are subject to ceded reinsurance arrangements with third parties of $7.4 billion and $8.2 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, which includes cash and cash equivalents of $208 million and $1.0 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company has invested in legal entities that are VIEs. Legal entities are determined to be VIEs if (1) the equity investors lack (i) the ability to control the entity, (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or (iii) the right to receive returns of the entity, or (2) the entity lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities without subordinated financial support.
For VIEs, the Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary, which involves an evaluation of the purpose and design of the entity and, whether based on the design of the entity, the Company has both (1) the power to direct the activities of the entity which most significantly affect the economic performance of the entity and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that are potentially significant to the VIE. Significant judgment is required in the primary beneficiary determination, which includes an evaluation of the substance of contractual arrangements and voting agreements, the rights of other investors in an entity and the potential financial results of the entity.
The Company continuously assesses if facts or circumstances indicate that a potential change in the primary beneficiary has occurred. This could include new contractual arrangements of an entity or changes in the investors of an entity. As a result of changes in circumstances, the Company may consolidate or deconsolidate a VIE.
Consolidated VIEs
The Company is the primary beneficiary of certain CFEs, primarily collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), investment funds and partnership entities in which the Company has invested, which requires the Company to consolidate them as VIEs. The assets of the VIEs may only be used to satisfy the liabilities of the respective VIEs. The Company is not required to provide, and has not provided, material financial support to the VIEs, other than its investment in these VIEs.
The table below reflects the carrying amount and balance sheet classification in which the assets and liabilities of consolidated VIEs are reported. The liabilities primarily comprise debt instruments issued by the VIEs. The creditors of these VIEs do not have recourse to the Company in excess of the assets contained within the respective VIEs.

(1)Included in other invested assets.
(2)In the first quarter of 2026, beneficial interests in CFEs were transferred to the Company from an affiliate, which resulted in the Company, as the primary beneficiary, consolidating the CFEs as VIEs. Notes issued by CFEs represent notes issued by CLOs. The creditors of these consolidated VIEs do not have recourse to the Company in excess of the assets contained within the VIEs. For these notes, the Company has elected the FVO and has based the estimated fair value on the more observable of the notes or the corresponding assets. Changes in estimated fair value are reported in net investment gains (losses).
Unconsolidated VIEs
The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs because the Company does not have both (1) the power to direct the activities of the entity which most significantly affect the economic performance of the entity and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that are potentially significant to the VIE.
The Company invests in structured products issued by CFEs or securitization entities that are VIEs which typically do not have substantial equity. Its investments in these structured products are fixed maturity securities investments and include mortgage-backed securities, and ABS & CLOs. The Company’s exposure to losses of these entities is limited to the amount of its investment. See “— Fixed Maturity Securities Available-for-Sale” for details regarding amounts and classification of these assets.
The Company also invests in or provides loans to other legal entities that are VIEs. These primarily include hedge funds, private equity funds and similar entities that are classified within OLPIs, REJVs, other invested assets, fixed maturity securities and mortgage loans. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss for these VIEs is limited to the carrying value of the equity investment plus any unfunded capital commitments. The carrying value of these investments was $12.0 billion at both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and the Company’s unfunded commitments were $2.7 billion and $2.3 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The Company did not provide financial or other support that it was not contractually obligated to provide to entities designated as VIEs for the six months ended June 30, 2026 or 2025.
