Q4(LDTI)

FINAL

AS ADJUSTED

Financial Analysts Briefing Supplement

Fourth Quarter 2022 - As Adjusted

This document is a statistical supplement to the Financial Analysts Briefing (FAB) book. Throughout the presentation, amounts presented may not foot due to rounding. As you review the supplement, please note the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and definitions found at the back of this document.

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standard Update 2018-12 Financial Services - Insurance: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, as clarified and amended by (i) ASU 2019-09 Financial Services - Insurance: Effective Date, and (ii) ASU 2020-11 Financial Services - Insurance: Effective Date and Early Application (collectively, "LDTI") as of January 1, 2023. The amended guidance is applied as of the beginning of the earliest period presented in the Company's quarterly and annual financial statements, which results in a January 1, 2021 Transition Date. The impacts to the 2021 and 2022 data in the FAB Supplement are being reflected at this time voluntarily and for comparative purposes only. In conjunction with the adoption of LDTI, the Company will change its practice of recording the change in the deferred profit liability on products with limited-payment features from the benefits and claims, net line item to the net earned premiums line item in the consolidated statement of earnings. This change in presentation will have no impact on net earnings and will be made for all comparative periods presented in quarterly and annual financial statements. This change has been reflected in the updated FAB Supplement. Updates to the original FAB Supplement for these items are highlighted in yellow herein.
