(1) Claims paid on consolidated FG VIEs are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as a component of paydowns on FG VIEs’ liabilities in financing activities as opposed to operating activities.
Cash flows from operating activities were inflows of $87 million in first quarter 2025 and outflows of $74 million in first quarter 2024. The first quarter 2025 cash flow from operations includes the receipt of $97 million in satisfaction of the judgment the Company was awarded and its recoveries in connection with the resolution of the LBIE litigation. In addition, first quarter 2025 cash flows from operations were higher than in first quarter 2024 due to a $61 million decrease in net claim payments.
Investing activities primarily consisted of net sales (purchases) of fixed-maturity securities and short-term investments and paydowns on and sales of FG VIEs’ assets. The decrease in investing cash inflows in first quarter 2025 compared with first quarter 2024 was mainly attributable to lower net sales of fixed-maturity securities in first quarter 2025, which were partially offset by higher net sales of short-term investments in first quarter 2025. Investing inflows in both periods were used to fund claim payments and share repurchases. See Item 1, Financial Statements, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and Note 4, Expected Loss to be Paid (Recovered), for additional information.
Financing activities primarily consist of (i) AGL share repurchases and dividends and (ii) paydowns of FG VIEs’ liabilities. First quarter 2024 FG VIE financing cash flows included the par paydown of liabilities of certain trusts related to Puerto Rico exposures of $144 million.
From April 1, 2025 through May 8, 2025, the Company repurchased an additional 603 thousand of common shares. As of May 8, 2025, the Company was authorized to purchase approximately $181 million of its common shares.
