RESTRUCTURING AND SEPARATION COSTS. Significant, higher-cost restructuring programs, primarily related to the separations, are excluded from measurement of segment operating performance for internal and external purposes; those excluded amounts are reported in Restructuring and other charges for Corporate. In addition, we incur costs associated with separation activities, which are also excluded from measurement of segment operating performance for internal and external purposes. See Note 19 for further information on restructuring and separation costs.

INCOME TAXES. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the effective income tax rate was 13.7% compared to 10.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The provision for income taxes was $0.3 billion and $0.2 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the tax provision was primarily due to higher net income before taxes, a decrease in tax benefits associated with separation activities, an increase in global minimum taxes (Pillar 2), and lower non-taxable gains on our retained and sold ownership interests, partially offset by higher tax benefits on global activities (reduced for the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA)) and an increase in business tax credits.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the adjusted effective income tax rate* was 15.0% compared to 20.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to higher U.S. business tax credits and favorable audit settlements, partially offset by taxes on global income, including global minimum taxes (Pillar 2). The adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes* was $0.3 billion for both the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The tax provision was flat, primarily due to higher adjusted net income before taxes* offset by higher tax benefit on global activities (reduced for the impact of the OBBBA) and an increase of business tax credits.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the effective income tax rate was 14.2% compared to 10.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. See Note 15 for further information. The provision for income taxes was $1.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.6 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the tax provision was primarily due to higher net income before taxes, a decrease in tax benefits associated with separation activities, lower non-taxable gains on our retained and sold ownership interests, and an increase in global minimum tax (Pillar 2), partially offset by higher tax benefits on global activities (reduced for the impact of the OBBBA), an increase in business tax credits, tax benefits associated with realized foreign tax credits on the reinsurance transaction (see Note 12) and favorable audit resolutions.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the adjusted effective income tax rate* was17.1% compared to 20.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to higher U.S. business tax credits and favorable audit resolutions, partially offset by taxes on global income, including global minimum taxes (Pillar 2). The adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes* was $1.1 billion and $0.9 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher adjusted net income before taxes* and an increase in global minimum tax (Pillar 2), partially offset by higher tax benefit on global activities (reduced for the impact of the OBBBA), an increase of business tax credits and favorable audit resolutions.
