Our International Insurance segment is operated through CICA International, which issues endowment contracts, which are principally accumulation contracts that incorporate an element of life insurance protection, and whole life insurance products, all to non-U.S. residents. These contracts are designed to provide a fixed amount of insurance coverage over the life of the insured and may include rider benefits and annuity features that enhance policy accumulations. Our Domestic Insurance segment operates through CLOA, which is licensed in 43 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and issues whole life, final expense and life products with living benefits; and MGLIC, which sold and still services life insurance policies through funeral homes in Mississippi. Prior to October 1, 2026, our Domestic Insurance segment also included SPLIC, which issued smaller whole life policies in Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi. SPLIC was merged into its parent, CLOA, on October 1, 2026. All policies are sold and serviced through independent agents.
The CODM evaluates the profitability of the International Insurance and Domestic Insurance segments based on the income (loss) before federal income tax, or segment profit (loss), which is measured as revenues less directly attributable to total benefits and expenses. This measure reflects the operating performance of each insurance segment and is the primary measure used by the CODM to evaluate segment results and allocate resources. The significant expense categories regularly provided to the CODM and included in the measure of segment profit (loss) are presented in the tables below.
The International Insurance and Domestic Insurance operations constitute separate businesses. In addition to these reportable segments, the Company also captures other corporate-related non-insurance revenues and expenses associated with operating the Company. These amounts are not included in the segment profit (loss) and are reported separately below to reconcile to the consolidated income (loss) before federal income tax on the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss).
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included in our 2025 Form 10-K and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
