Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements:

(1) Nature of Business

Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”) (formerly known as Genworth Financial, Inc.) was incorporated in Delaware in 2003 in preparation for an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock, which was completed on May 28, 2004. On April 1, 2013, Genworth Holdings completed a holding company reorganization pursuant to which Genworth Holdings became a direct,100% owned subsidiary of a new public holding company that it had formed. The new public holding company was incorporated in Delaware on December 5, 2012, in connection with the reorganization, and was renamed Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth Financial”) upon the completion of the reorganization.

The accompanying financial statements include on a consolidated basis the accounts of Genworth Financial and its affiliate companies in which it holds a majority voting interest or power to direct activities of certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”), which on a consolidated basis is referred to as “Genworth,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” unless the context otherwise requires. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. References to “Genworth Financial” refer solely to Genworth Financial, Inc., and not to any of its consolidated subsidiaries.

Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025 and in connection with the cessation of sales of long-term care insurance products through Genworth Life Insurance Company (“GLIC”), Genworth Financial’s wholly-owned subsidiary, we changed our reportable segments to better align with how we currently manage our business. Under the new reporting structure, we operate our business through the followingtwo reportable segments:

Enact. Enact Holdings, Inc. (“Enact Holdings”) comprises our Enact segment. Through Enact Holdings’ mortgage insurance subsidiaries, we offer private mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans at specified coverage percentages (“primary mortgage insurance”). Enact Holdings also selectively enters into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which it insures a portfolio of loans at or after origination (“pool mortgage insurance”).

Closed Block. We service a variety of protection and retirement income products that were previously sold through GLIC and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as our “legacy insurance subsidiaries.” Our primary protection products include long-term care and life insurance. Long-term care insurance products are intended to protect against the significant and escalating costs of long-term care services provided in the insured’s home or assisted living or nursing facilities. Life insurance products include traditional and non-traditional life insurance (term, universal and term universal life insurance as well as corporate-owned life insurance and funding agreements). Our retirement income products include fixed and variable annuities.

We believe the change in our reporting structure helps to enhance understanding of business performance and better aligns with our strategic priorities, including to maintain the self-sustainability of our legacy insurance subsidiaries, which are managed on a standalone basis. All prior period financial information has been recast to reflect the reorganized segment reporting structure.

In addition to ourtwo reportable segments, we also have Corporate and Other, which includes debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, and eliminations of inter-segment transactions. Corporate and Other also includes the results of other businesses that are not individually reportable, such as start-up results of our CareScout business (“CareScout”), including aging care services offered through our CareScout services business (“CareScout Services”) and long-term care insurance products offered through our CareScout insurance business (“CareScout Insurance”), and certain international businesses.

On July 31, 2023, Genworth Financial’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $350 million of share repurchases under Genworth Financial’s existing share repurchase program that began in May 2022. On September 18, 2025, Genworth Financial announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a new share repurchase program under which Genworth Financial may purchase up to$350 million of its outstanding common stock. Under the new program, share repurchases may be made at Genworth’s discretion from time to time in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The timing and number of future shares repurchased under the new share repurchase program will depend on a variety of factors, including Genworth

Financial’s stock price and trading volume, and general business and market conditions, among other factors. The authorization has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time.

Pursuant to the programs, during 2025, Genworth Financial repurchased 30,662,006 shares of its common stock at an average price of $7.99 per share for a total cost of $248 million, including excise taxes and other costs paid in connection with acquiring the shares, and finalized repurchases under the July 2023 authorization. The repurchased shares were recorded at cost and presented as treasury stock in a separate caption in equity in our consolidated balance sheets.

During the period January 1 through February 20, 2026, Genworth Financial repurchased 4,344,376 shares of its common stock through a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan at an average price of $8.75 per share, leaving approximately $222 million available for repurchase under the new share repurchase program as of February 20, 2026.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

a)Premiums

For traditional long-duration insurance contracts, we report premiums as earned when due. For monthly mortgage insurance contracts, we report premiums as revenue over the period that coverage is provided. For single premium mortgage insurance contracts, we report premiums over the estimated policy life in accordance with the expected pattern of risk emergence as further described in our accounting policy for unearned premiums. In addition, we refund post-delinquent premiums received to the insured party if the delinquent loan goes to claim. We record a liability for premiums received on the delinquent loans consistent with our expectations of the rates at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”).

Premiums received under annuity contracts without significant mortality risk and premiums received on investment and universal life insurance products are not reported as revenues but rather as deposits and are included in liabilities for policyholder account balances.

b)Net Investment Income and Net Investment Gains and Losses

Net investment income consists primarily of interest and dividends. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis and reflects amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on an effective yield basis. Income or loss upon call or prepayment of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities is recognized in net investment income, except for hybrid securities where the income or loss upon call is recognized in net investment gains and losses.

Investment income on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities is initially based upon yield, cash flow and prepayment assumptions at the date of purchase. Subsequent revisions in those assumptions are recorded using the retrospective or prospective method. Under the retrospective method used for mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities of high credit quality (ratings equal to or greater than “AA” or that are backed by a U.S. agency), which cannot be contractually prepaid in such a manner that we would not recover a substantial portion of the initial investment, amortized cost of the security is adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the revised assumptions been in place at the date of purchase. The adjustments to amortized cost are recorded as a charge or credit to net investment income. Under the prospective method, which is used for all other mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, future cash flows are estimated and interest income is recognized going forward using the new internal rate of return.

Net investment gains and losses consist primarily of realized gains and losses from the sale of our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities and equity securities, changes to the allowance for credit losses, and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities, limited partnership investments and derivative instruments. Investment gains and losses are calculated on the basis of specific identification on the trade date.

c)Policy Fees and Other Income

Policy fees and other income consist primarily of insurance charges assessed on universal and term universal life insurance contracts and fees assessed against customer account values. For universal and term universal life insurance contracts, charges to policyholder accounts for cost of insurance are recognized as revenue when due. Variable product fees are charged to variable annuity contractholders based upon the daily net assets of the contractholder’s and policyholder’s account values and are recognized as revenue when charged. Policy surrender fees are recognized as income when the policy is surrendered.

d)Investment Securities

At the time of purchase, we designate our fixed maturity securities as either available-for-sale or trading and report them in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Our portfolio of fixed maturity securities comprises primarily investment grade securities. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, net of the effect on policyholder contract balances and deferred income taxes, are reflected as unrealized investment gains or losses in a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Equity securities are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value are reflected in net investment gains (losses).

Allowance for Credit Losses and Write-Downs of Available-For-Sale Fixed Maturity Securities

We regularly review securities in an unrealized loss position to determine whether the decline in fair value is related to credit losses or other factors. If we have either (i) the intent to sell the security, or (ii) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security prior to recovering the amortized cost, we record a reduction to the security’s amortized cost and recognize the loss in net investment gains (losses) for the difference between the security’s amortized cost and fair value. If neither of the two preceding conditions exist, we determine whether the decline in fair value is related to credit losses or not completely due to other factors. In making this assessment, we assess the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency/agencies and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other considerations. If a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security is compared to the amortized cost basis of the security and a credit loss allowance is recognized in net investment gains (losses), limited to the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Losses are written off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible or when we intend to sell or expect we will be required to sell a security prior to recovering its amortized cost. When there is an allowance for credit losses, we reassess the credit losses each balance sheet date and subsequent increases or decreases are recorded as an adjustment to the allowance for credit losses, with a corresponding gain or loss recorded in net investment gains (losses).

Estimating the cash flows expected to be collected is a quantitative and qualitative process that incorporates information received from third-party sources along with internal assumptions and judgments. When developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected at the individual security level, we utilize an analytical model that provides for various loss scenarios and consider the industry sector, current levels of subordination, geographic location and other relevant characteristics of the security or underlying assets, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts. We regularly monitor our investment portfolio to ensure that securities with a credit loss are identified in a timely manner and any losses are recognized in the proper period.

Accrued interest is included in accrued investment income in our consolidated balance sheet. We exclude accrued interest related to available-for-sale fixed maturity securities from the estimated allowance for credit losses. Accrued interest on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities is deemed uncollectible and typically written off after 90 days; therefore, we do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses).

e)Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We have fixed maturity securities, equity securities, short-term investments, limited partnerships, derivatives, embedded derivatives, separate account assets and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value.

Fair value measurements are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our view of market assumptions in the absence of observable market information. We utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. All assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations for which inputs are observable or where those significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3—Instruments for which significant value drivers are unobservable.

Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as actively traded equity securities and actively traded mutual fund investments.

Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using industry-standard pricing methodologies, models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various inputs, such as interest rate, credit spread and foreign exchange rates for the underlying financial instruments. All significant inputs are observable, or derived from observable information in the marketplace or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Financial instruments in this category primarily include certain public and private corporate fixed maturity and equity securities, government or agency securities, certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, certain non-exchange-traded derivatives such as interest rate or foreign currency swaps and short-term investments.

Level 3 comprises financial instruments whose fair value is estimated based on industry-standard pricing methodologies and internally developed models utilizing significant inputs not based on, nor corroborated by, readily available market information. In certain instances, this category may also utilize non-binding broker quotes. This category primarily consists of certain less liquid fixed maturity and equity securities, certain derivative instruments or embedded derivatives where we cannot corroborate the significant valuation inputs with market observable data and market risk benefits (“MRBs”).

As of each reporting period, all assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability, such as changes in fair value attributable to a particular input. We review the fair value hierarchy classifications each reporting period. Changes in the observability of the valuation attributes may result in a reclassification of certain financial assets or liabilities. Such reclassifications are reported as transfers in and out of Level 3 at the beginning fair value for the reporting period in which the changes occur. See note 19 for additional information related to fair value measurements.

f)Commercial Mortgage Loans

The carrying value of commercial mortgage loans is stated at principal amounts outstanding, net of unamortized premium or discount, deferred expenses and allowance for credit losses. Interest on loans is recognized on an accrual basis at the applicable interest rate on the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees and direct costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are amortized as level yield adjustments over the respective loan terms. Unamortized net fees or costs are recognized upon early repayment of the loans. Loan commitment fees are deferred and amortized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan.

Commercial mortgage loans are considered past due when contractual payments have not been received from the borrower by the required payment date. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s opinion, the collection of principal or interest is not probable, typically when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days or more past due. In determining whether it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due, we consider current payment status, debt service coverage ratios, occupancy levels and current loan-to-value. Income on loans on non-accrual status is not recognized until we believe it is probable that we will collect all future contractual principal and interest. Commercial mortgage loans are written off against the allowance to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollectible.

We determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses utilizing an analytical model that provides various loss scenarios based on historical experience adjusted for current events, trends, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that result in a loss in the loan portfolio over the estimated life of the loans. We revert to historical credit loss experience for periods beyond forecasts that are reasonable and supportable. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis with consideration for debt service coverage ratio, debt-to-value, property type and geographic location. Key inputs into the analytical model include exposure, weighted-average life, return, historical loss rates and forecast scenarios. Actual amounts realized over time could differ from the amounts estimated for the allowance for credit losses reported in the consolidated financial statements. Additions and reductions to the allowance through periodic provisions or benefits are recorded in net investment gains (losses). See note 4 for additional disclosures related to commercial mortgage loans.

Accrued interest related to commercial mortgage loans is included inaccrued investment income in our consolidated balance sheet and had a carrying value of $21 million and$23 millionas of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest as uncollectible accrued interest related to our commercial mortgage loans is written off after 90 days and once collectability is determined to be uncertain and not probable. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses).

g)Limited Partnerships

Limited partnerships are accounted for at fair value when our partnership interest is considered minor (generally less than 3% to 5%ownership in the limited partnerships) and we exercise no influence over operating and financial policies. For limited partnerships that do not have a readily determinable fair value, we utilize the net asset value (“NAV”) from the underlying fund statements as a practical expedient for fair value. Changes in the estimated fair value of these investments are included in net investment gains (losses) and income and expenses are reported in net investment income. Investment distributions are evaluated to determine whether the distribution is a return on investment, such as capital gains, interest income and dividend income, or a return of capital. If our ownership percentage exceeds the minor threshold, limited partnerships are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Our proportionate share of the earnings or losses for limited partnerships accounted for using the equity method of accounting is included in net investment income. In applying either method, we use financial information provided by the investee generally on a one- to three-month lag. However, we consider whether an adjustment to the value is necessary when the measurement date is not aligned with our reporting date.

h)Derivatives

Derivative instruments are used to mitigate or reduce our exposure to interest rate, equity market and foreign currency exchange risk associated with assets and liabilities held and forecasted transactions.

On the date we enter into a derivative contract, management designates the derivative as a hedge of the identified exposure (cash flow or foreign currency). If a derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting, the changes in its fair value and all scheduled periodic settlement receipts and payments are reported in net income (loss).

We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. In this documentation, we specifically identify the asset, liability or forecasted transaction that has been designated as a hedged item, state how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the risks related to the hedged item and set forth the method that will be used to retrospectively and prospectively assess the hedging instrument’s effectiveness. We generally determine hedge effectiveness based on total changes in fair value of a perfectly effective hypothetical derivative for hedges of forecasted transactions and the total changes in fair value of the derivative instrument.

We discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when: (i) it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item; (ii) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; (iii) the derivative is de-designated as a hedge instrument; or (iv) it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur.

For all qualifying and highly effective cash flow hedges, changes in fair value of the derivative instrument are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, the derivative continues to be carried in the consolidated balance sheets at its fair value, and gains and losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) are recognized immediately in net income (loss). When the hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, but is reasonably possible, the accumulated gain or loss remains in OCI and is recognized when the transaction affects net income (loss); however, prospective hedge accounting for the transaction is terminated. In all other situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued on a cash flow hedge, amounts previously deferred in OCI are reclassified into net income (loss) when net income (loss) is impacted by the variability of the cash flow of the hedged item.

We may enter into contracts that are not themselves derivative instruments but contain embedded derivatives. For each contract, we assess whether the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to those of the host contract and determine whether a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument.

If it is determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract, and that a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a stand-alone derivative. Such embedded derivatives are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value and are classified consistent with their host contract. Changes in their fair value are recognized in current period net income (loss). If we are unable to properly identify and measure an embedded derivative for separation from its host contract, the entire contract is carried in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in current period net income (loss).

Changes in the fair value of non-qualifying derivatives, including embedded derivatives, are reported in net investment gains (losses) with the exception of financial futures, which are associated with our MRBs and are reported in changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges.

The majority of our derivative arrangements require the posting of collateral upon meeting certain net exposure thresholds. The amounts recognized for derivative counterparty collateral received by us are recorded in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash with a corresponding amount recorded in other liabilities to represent our obligation to return the collateral retained by us. We heldno cash collateral from counterparties as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. We also receive non-cash collateral that is not recognized in our consolidated balance sheet unless we exercise our right to sell or re-pledge the underlying asset. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of non-cash collateral received was $17 million and $11 million, respectively, and the underlying assets were not sold or re-pledged. We pledged $1,717 million and $1,592 million of fixed maturity securities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Fixed maturity securities that we pledge as collateral remain in our consolidated balance sheet within fixed maturity securities available-for-sale. Any cash collateral pledged to a derivative counterparty is derecognized with a receivable recorded in other assets for the right to receive our cash collateral back from the counterparty. Daily changes in the fair value of the derivative contract, commonly referred to as variation margin, for derivatives cleared through a central clearing party, such as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, are treated as daily settlements of the derivative contract.

i)Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Certificates of deposit, money market funds and other highly liquid investments with original maturities ofthree months or less are considered cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows. Items with maturities greater than three months but less thanone year at the time of acquisition are generally considered short-term investments.

j)Deferred Acquisition Costs

Acquisition costs include costs that are directly related to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts and are capitalized in the period incurred and deferred.

Acquisition costs related to our long-duration insurance contracts primarily include commissions in excess of ultimate renewal commissions and for contracts issued, certain other costs such as underwriting, medical inspection, premium taxes and issuance expenses. Deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) is measured on a grouped basis consistent with cohorts used to estimate the related liability for future policy benefits. DAC is deferred and amortized on a constant level basis for each cohort over the expected term of the related contracts, which approximates straight-line amortization.

For our long-term care insurance products, DAC is amortized in proportion to total life count. For our life insurance products, DAC is amortized in proportion to the face amount in-force. For our fixed and variable annuity products, DAC is amortized in proportion to policy count. Assumptions used to amortize DAC are consistent with the assumptions used to estimate the related liability for future policy benefits. Revised assumptions are recognized prospectively over the remaining term of the related contract. The amortization rate is applied at the beginning of the current reporting period and reflects information available through the end of the current reporting period, including assumption updates, if applicable, and actual experience.

Policyholders can elect to modify the benefits of certain products. If a contract modification results in substantial changes to the contract, the DAC on the original contract is written off immediately through income and any new deferrable costs associated with the new contract are deferred. If a contract modification does not substantially change the contract, the DAC on the original contract will continue to be amortized and any acquisition costs associated with the related modification are expensed immediately.

Acquisition costs related to our mortgage insurance contracts primarily consist of underwriting costs and are amortized in proportion to estimated gross profit to the extent they are recoverable from future profits.

k)Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Present Value of Future Profits. In conjunction with the acquisition of a block of insurance policies or investment contracts, a portion of the purchase price is assigned to the right to receive future gross profits arising from existing insurance and investment contracts. This intangible asset, called PVFP, represents the actuarially estimated present value of future cash flows from the acquired policies. PVFP is amortized in a manner consistent with the amortization of DAC, which is in proportion to the face amount in-force for life insurance products. We test PVFP annually for recoverability as part of premium deficiency testing.

Deferred Sales Inducements to Contractholders. We defer sales inducements to contractholders for features on variable annuities that entitle the contractholder to an incremental amount to be credited to the account value upon making a deposit, and for fixed annuities with crediting rates higher than the contract’s expected ongoing crediting rates for periods after the inducement. Deferred sales inducements to contractholders are reported as a separate intangible asset and amortized in benefits and other changes in policy reserves using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC.

Other Intangible Assets. We amortize the costs of other intangibles over their estimated useful lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows, which requires the use of estimates and judgment, and are written down to fair value if impaired. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment using a qualitative or quantitative assessment and are written down to fair value as required.

Goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. The determination of fair value requires the use of estimates and judgment, at the “reporting unit” level. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a business, one level below that operating segment (the “component” level) if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management at the component level. If the reporting unit’s fair value is below its carrying value, we recognize an impairment in an amount equal to the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the reporting unit up to the amount of recorded goodwill. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded in 2025.

l)Reinsurance

Premium revenue, benefits and acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, are reported net of the amounts relating to reinsurance ceded to other companies in the consolidated statements of operations. Amounts due from reinsurers for incurred and estimated future claims are reflected in the reinsurance recoverable asset in the consolidated balance sheets. Amounts received from reinsurers that represent recovery of acquisition costs are netted against DAC so that the net amount is capitalized. The cost of reinsurance, or the difference between amounts paid and the liabilities ceded at the inception of the reinsurance agreement, is deferred and amortized in a manner consistent with DAC over the terms of the related reinsurance treaties using the same assumptions as those used to account for the underlying reinsured policies. If we determine that a reinsurance agreement does not expose the reinsurer to a reasonable possibility of a significant loss from insurance risk, we record the agreement using the deposit method of accounting.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Reinsurance Recoverables

The allowance for credit losses related to reinsurance recoverables is evaluated based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events and reasonable and supportable forecasts from both internal and external sources. The allowance is measured by reinsurer, taking into consideration the reinsured product type and collateral type, and is calculated based on an externally reported probability of default corresponding to the reinsurer’s credit rating and the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us for ceded claims on the underlying policies. Our estimate of the allowance reflects consideration for collateral securing the reinsurance agreements and expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off. We also consider other credit risk factors, including, among other factors, the historical frequency and severity of the associated insurance claims, aging of recoverables and regulatory, legal and economic factors, to determine if an additional incremental allowance for credit losses is required. No reversion adjustments are necessary as the starting point for our allowance for credit losses reflects historical loss experience covering the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us. If available facts and circumstances indicate the reinsurance recoverable does not reflect expectations consistent with the collective analysis, the reinsurance recoverable is assessed on a separate basis. Write-offs are deducted from the allowance in the period the reinsurance recoverable is determined to be uncollectible.

m)Separate Accounts

Separate account assets represent funds for which the investment income and investment gains and losses accrue directly to the contractholders and are reflected in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value, reported as summary total separate account assets with an equivalent summary total reported for liabilities. Amounts assessed against the contractholders for mortality, administrative and other services are included in revenues. Net investment income and net investment gains (losses) accrue to the benefit of the contractholder and are offset within the same line item in the consolidated statements of operations; as a result, there is no impact to net income (loss). There are no gains or losses on transfers of assets from the general account to the separate account.

n)Insurance Reserves

Future Policy Benefits

The liability for future policy benefits is equal to the present value of expected future benefits and claim-related expenses, less the present value of expected future net premiums. Cash flow assumptions, as applicable, used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits include health care experience (including type of care and cost of care), policyholder persistency or lapses (i.e., the probability that a policy or contract will remain in-force from one period to the next), insured mortality (i.e., life expectancy or longevity) and insured morbidity (i.e., frequency and severity of claim, including claim termination rates and benefit utilization rates). Cash flow assumptions associated with our long-term care insurance products in our Closed Block segment also include expected impacts of our in-force management actions, such as future in-force rate actions (including premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions) and other reduced benefit options. Estimates of future in-force rate actions include those that are approved or anticipated to be approved, including anticipated premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions from rate actions not yet filed. Other reduced benefit options represent alternative options offered to our policyholders outside of in-force rate actions. Claim termination rates for our long-term care insurance products represent the expected rates at which claims end, and benefit utilization rates represent the available policy benefits expected to be used. Both claim termination rates and benefit utilization rates are influenced by, among other things, gender, age at claim, diagnosis, type of care needed, benefit period and daily benefit amount.

All payments under an insurance contract, including future expected claims and claims incurred, as well as related expenses, are measured together as an integrated reserve. As a result, the aggregate liability is presented as one line item within the liability for future policy benefits in our consolidated balance sheets, excluding amounts related to our Enact segment and certain life insurance and fixed annuity products.

The net premium ratio for long-duration traditional and limited-payment contracts is the portion of gross premiums required to provide for all future benefits. The net premium ratio is equal to the present value of actual historical and expected future benefits and expenses divided by the present value of actual historical and expected future gross premiums. For the purposes of calculating the net premium ratio, traditional and limited-payment long-duration insurance contracts are generally grouped into annual calendar-year cohorts based on the contract issue date, product type and company. Limited-payment contracts are grouped into cohorts separately from other traditional products, and riders are combined with the associated base policies. Acquired contracts are grouped by acquisition date, and reinsurance recoverables are grouped by treaty effective date.

Cash flow assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits are monitored quarterly and are updated if emerging experience indicates a change is necessary. As a result, we expect to update the cash flow assumptions related to the implementation timing and approval amounts of our long-term care insurance in-force rate actions in our Closed Block segment on a quarterly basis. We update the net premium ratio quarterly for actual historical experience; therefore, during interim reporting periods we replace forecasted cash flow assumptions with actual cash flows with any difference recorded in net income (loss).

In addition, all cash flow assumptions are reviewed at least annually in the same period each year. We conduct a formal review and update cash flow assumptions as necessary based on experience studies during the fourth quarter each year. Changes in cash flow assumptions are recorded using a retrospective approach with a cumulative catch-up adjustment by recalculating the net premium ratio using actual historical experience and updated future cash flow estimates over the expected remaining life of the contracts.

The liability for future policy benefits is measured using two different discount rates, a current discount rate and a locked-in discount rate. The current discount rate is used to remeasure the liability for future policy benefits recorded in the consolidated balance sheets and is a current upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument yield, commonly interpreted to be a single-A rated bond rate, with the same duration as the corresponding liability. The current discount rate is updated quarterly, and the difference between the liability measured using the locked-in rate and the liability measured using the current rate is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The methodology used to determine the current discount rate assumption maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The current discount rate assumption is based on a single-A curve published by a market data service. For cash flows projected beyond the observable curve, we use estimation techniques consistent with Level 3 fair value measurements to interpolate from the last observable rate to an estimated ultimate long-term rate.

The locked-in discount rate is used to determine amounts recorded to net income (loss) and is held constant for the purposes of calculating the net premium ratio and interest accretion on the liability for future policy benefits. For policies in-force prior to January 1, 2021, the locked-in discount rate is equal to the discount rate in effect immediately prior to January 1, 2021. For contracts issued on or after January 1, 2021, the locked-in discount rate for each issue-year cohort is determined as a single discount rate, calculated as the weighted-average monthly single-A fixed-income instrument forward curves over the calendar year determined using the methodology used for the current discount rate assumption, weighted using annualized premiums, face amounts and monthly premiums for long-term care insurance, life insurance and fixed and variable annuities, respectively.

When the net premium ratio is updated, the liability for future policy benefits is remeasured at the beginning of the current reporting period using the updated cash flows and revised net premium ratio discounted by the locked-in discount rate. The remeasured liability for future policy benefits is compared to the liability for future policy benefits as of the prior reporting period using the locked-in discount rate, with any difference recorded as liability remeasurement (gains) losses in current period net income (loss). If the present value of future expected benefits and claim-related expenses exceeds the present value of future expected gross premiums, the net premium ratio is capped at 100% and the liability for future policy benefits is increased with a corresponding adjustment to net income (loss). In the event the liability for future policy benefits is negative as a result of the present value of future net premiums exceeding the present value of future expected benefits, we record a flooring adjustment to ensure the liability for future policy benefits for each cohort is not less than zero. This is most prevalent in our term life insurance products due to their product design of a level premium period followed by annual premium rate increases. Impacts for flooring adjustments are recorded to benefits and other changes in policy reserves in current period net income (loss).

Estimates and actuarial assumptions used for establishing the liability for future policy benefits involve the exercise of significant judgment, and changes in assumptions or deviations of actual experience from assumptions can have, and in the past have had, material impacts on our liability for future policy benefits and net income (loss). Assumptions are based on management’s best estimate and consider a variety of factors including historical and industry experience and trends, as well as market conditions and other factors. Refer to note 8 for additional information related to deviations between actual and expected experience during the period.

Deferred Profit Liability

We establish a deferred profit liability within the liability for future policy benefits in the consolidated balance sheets for limited-payment products at the time of contract issuance for any amount of gross premiums received in excess of net premiums, which is amortized and recognized in benefits and other changes in policy reserves in net income (loss) in proportion to expected future benefit payments for our fixed annuity products. We accrue interest on the unamortized deferred profit liability balance using the locked-in discount rate for the related liability for future policy benefits. Cash flow assumptions related to the deferred profit liability are consistent with the assumptions used to estimate the related liability for future policy benefits and are updated at the same time as the related liability for future policy benefits. We recalculate the deferred profit liability using updated cash flow assumptions as of the beginning of the current reporting period and compare it to the carrying amount as of the prior reporting period, with any difference recorded as liability remeasurement (gains) losses in current period net income (loss).

Policyholder Account Balances

The liability for policyholder account balances represents the contract value that has accrued to the benefit of the policyholder as of the balance sheet date for investment-type and universal and term universal life insurance contracts. Investment-type contracts are broadly defined to include contracts without significant mortality or morbidity risk. Payments received from sales of investment contracts are recorded as deposits to the policyholder account balance. The policyholder account balance liability consists of accumulated account deposits, plus interest credited, less policyholder withdrawals and other charges assessed against the account balance. Interest rates credited to investment contracts are guaranteed for the initial policy term with renewal rates determined as necessary by management.

In addition, some indexed crediting features included in our fixed annuity and universal life insurance products are accounted for as embedded derivatives. See notes 5 and 19 for additional information on these embedded derivatives and related fair value measurement disclosures.

Additional Insurance Liabilities

Additional insurance liabilities consist of secondary guarantees or product features in addition to the policyholder account balance on universal and term universal life insurance contracts that do not meet the criteria to be classified as MRBs or embedded derivatives. The additional insurance liability is equal to the sum of cumulative assessments multiplied by the current benefit ratio plus accrued interest, less excess payments. These additional benefit reserves are included in the liability for policyholder account balances in the consolidated balance sheets. The benefit ratio is equal to the present value of total expected benefit payments over the life of the contract divided by the present value of total expected assessments over the life of the contract, discounted by the projected crediting rate. The assumptions used to calculate the benefit ratio include insured mortality (i.e., life expectancy or longevity), interest rates and policyholder persistency or lapses, among other assumptions. The change in the additional insurance liability from the beginning of the current quarterly reporting period to the end of the current quarterly reporting period due to applying a revised benefit ratio is recorded as liability remeasurement (gains) losses in current period net income (loss).

The calculation of our additional insurance liabilities includes investment performance. Therefore, we are required to analyze the impacts from net unrealized investment gains and losses on our available for-sale investment securities backing our additional insurance liabilities, as if those unrealized investment gains and losses were realized. These “shadow adjustments” result in the recognition of unrealized gains and losses on our additional insurance liabilities in a manner consistent with unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities, which are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Changes to net unrealized investment gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities backing our additional insurance liabilities may increase or decrease the shadow adjustments recorded within our additional insurance liabilities balance from period to period.

Premium Deficiency Testing

We conduct annual premium deficiency testing for all reserves related to our universal and term universal life insurance products included in additional insurance liabilities. A premium deficiency exists when the total liability currently established plus the current present value of expected future gross premiums (expected deposits to be paid by the policyholders, including any unearned revenue, and anticipated investment income) is less than the current present value of expected future benefits and settlement costs (including any unamortized PVFP). If it is determined a premium deficiency exists, PVFP is first written off, followed by an accrual for a premium deficiency reserve, if necessary. If a premium deficiency is recorded, PVFP amortization and the associated liabilities are remeasured using updated assumptions.

o)Market Risk Benefits

MRBs are benefit features associated with our fixed and variable annuity contracts that provide protection to the contractholder while exposing us to other-than-nominal capital market risk. MRBs are measured at fair value using an income-based valuation model. Changes in fair value of market risk benefits, excluding changes attributable to instrument-specific credit risk (or non-performance risk) are reported as changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges in current period net income (loss). The portion of the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

We offer certain minimum guarantees associated with our fixed annuity contracts that are classified as MRBs, including living benefits such as a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (“GMWB”). The GMWB allows contractholders to withdraw a pre-defined percentage of account value or benefit base each year, either for a specified period of time or for the contractholders’ lifetime.

In addition, we offer certain minimum guarantees associated with our variable annuity contracts that are classified as MRBs. Our variable annuity contracts usually contain a basic guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”) which provides a minimum benefit to be paid upon the annuitant’s death equal to the larger of account value or the return of net deposits. Some variable annuity contracts permit contractholders to purchase through riders, at an additional charge, enhanced death benefits such as the highest contract anniversary value, accumulated net deposits at a stated rate or a combination thereof. Some of our variable annuity contracts provide the contractholder with living benefits such as a GMWB or certain types of guaranteed annuitization benefits. Additionally, some of our variable annuity contracts provide the contractholder with a guaranteed payout annuity floor (“GPAF”), which provides protection to the contractholder from the capital market risk of the variable annuity payment falling below the guaranteed floor.

See notes 11 and 19 for additional information related to MRBs and related significant inputs, judgments, valuation methods and assumptions used in the fair value measurement.

p)Liability for Policy and Contract Claims

The liability for policy and contract claims, or loss reserves, represents the amount needed to provide for the estimated ultimate cost of settling claims relating to insured events that have occurred on or before the end of the respective reporting period. The estimated liability includes requirements for future payments of: (i) losses that have been reported to the insurer; (ii) losses related to insured events that have occurred but that have not been reported to the insurer as of the date the liability is estimated; and (iii) loss adjustment expenses. Loss adjustment expenses include costs incurred in the claim settlement process such as legal fees and costs to record, process and adjust claims. As is common accounting practice in the mortgage insurance industry and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we do not establish loss reserves for future claims on insured loans that are not in default or believed to be in default.

Estimates and actuarial assumptions used for establishing the liability for policy and contract claims involve the exercise of significant judgment. Because these assumptions relate to factors that are not known in advance, change over time, are difficult to accurately predict and are inherently uncertain, we cannot determine with precision the ultimate amounts we will pay for actual claims or the timing of those payments. Small changes in assumptions or small deviations of actual experience from assumptions can have, and in the past have had, material impacts on our reserves, results of operations and financial condition.

The liabilities for our mortgage insurance policies represent our best estimates of the liabilities at the time based on known facts, trends and other external factors, including home prices, unemployment, government housing policies, state foreclosure timelines, general economic conditions, interest rates, tax policy, credit availability and mortgage products. Reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses are based on notices of mortgage loan defaults and estimates of defaults that have been incurred but have not been reported by loan servicers. Reserves for losses are established by estimating the number of loans in our inventory of delinquent loans that will result in a claim payment, which is referred to as the claim rate, and further estimating the amount of the claim payment, which is referred to as claim severity. The estimates are determined using a factor-based approach, in which assumptions of claim rates for loans in default and the average amount paid for loans that result in a claim are calculated using traditional actuarial techniques. Over time, as the status of the underlying delinquent loans moves toward foreclosure and the likelihood of the associated claim loss increases, the amount of the loss reserves associated with the potential claims may also increase.

Management considers the liability for policy and contract claims provided to be its best estimate to cover the losses that have occurred. Management monitors actual experience, and where circumstances warrant, will revise its assumptions. Our liability for policy and contract claims is reviewed regularly, with changes in our estimates of future claims recorded in net income (loss). Future developments may result in losses greater or less than the liability for policy and contract claims provided.

q)Unearned Premiums

For single premium mortgage insurance products, we recognize a portion of the revenue in premiums earned in the current period, while the remaining portion is deferred as unearned premiums and earned over time in accordance with the expected pattern of risk emergence. If single premium policies are cancelled and the premium is non-refundable, the remaining unearned premium related to each cancelled policy is recognized to earned premiums upon notification of the cancellation. Expected pattern of risk emergence on which we base premium recognition is inherently judgmental and is based on actuarial analysis of historical experience. We periodically review our premium earnings recognition models with any adjustments to the estimates reflected as a cumulative adjustment in current period net income (loss). Our reviews include the consideration of recent and projected loss experience, policy cancellation experience and refinement of actuarial methods.

r)Stock-Based Compensation

For share-based equity awards, we determine fair value on the grant date and recognize the related compensation expense, adjusted for expected forfeitures, in net income (loss) over the respective vesting period of the awards.

s)Employee Benefit Plans

We provide employees with a defined contribution pension plan and recognize expense throughout the year based on the employee’s age, service and eligible pay. We make an annual contribution to the plan. We also provide employees with defined contribution savings plans. We recognize expense for our contributions to the savings plans at the time employees make contributions to the plans.

Some employees participate in defined benefit pension and postretirement benefit plans. We recognize expense for these plans based upon actuarial valuations performed by external experts. We estimate aggregate benefits by using assumptions for employee turnover, future compensation increases, rates of return on pension plan assets and future health care costs. We recognize an expense for differences between actual experience and estimates over the average future service period of participants. We recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit plan as an asset or liability in our consolidated balance sheets and recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through OCI. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a liability for these plans in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

t)Income Taxes

We determine deferred tax assets and/or liabilities by multiplying the differences between the financial reporting and tax reporting bases for assets and liabilities by the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such differences are recovered or settled if there is no change in law. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in net income (loss) in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances on deferred tax assets are estimated based on our assessment of the realizability of such amounts.

Our companies have elected to file a single U.S. consolidated income tax return (the “life/non-life consolidated return”). All companies domesticated in the United States are included in the life/non-life consolidated return as allowed by the tax law and regulations, with the exception of CareScout Insurance Company, which became a life insurance company and is required to file separately for a period of five years effective 2025. We have a tax sharing agreement in place and all intercompany balances related to this agreement are settled at least annually.

u)Loss Recoveries

We recognize loss recoveries when the recovery is probable to occur and reasonably estimable. To be considered probable to occur, recovery amounts may not be subject to dispute. Loss recoveries include amounts Genworth has received or expects to collect from AXA S.A. (“AXA”) related to previously recognized payment protection insurance (“PPI”) mis-selling losses paid to AXA, which are reported as income (loss) from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. See note 22 for additional information on the AXA litigation with Santander Cards UK Limited (“Santander”) and Genworth’s related loss recoveries.

v)Variable Interest Entities

We are involved in certain entities that are considered VIEs as defined under U.S. GAAP, and accordingly, we evaluate the VIE to determine whether we are the primary beneficiary and are required to consolidate the assets and liabilities of the entity. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the enterprise that has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The determination of the primary beneficiary for a VIE can be complex and requires management judgment regarding the expected results of the entity and how those results are absorbed by variable interest holders, as well as which party has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the performance of the VIEs. Our primary involvement related to VIEs includes certain investments and reinsurance transactions.

We hold investments in certain structures that are considered VIEs. Our investments represent beneficial interests that are primarily in the form of structured securities or limited partnership investments. Our involvement in these structures typically represents a passive investment in the returns generated by the VIE and typically does not result in having significant influence over the economic performance of the VIE. Investments in limited partnerships or similar entities are generally limited partner or non-managing member equity investments in a widely held fund that is sponsored and managed by a reputable asset manager. We are not the primary beneficiary of any VIE investment in a limited partnership or similar entity. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the total carrying value of these investments was $3,450 million and $3,104 million, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to the outstanding carrying value and future funding commitments. We have not contributed, and do not plan to contribute, any additional financial or other support outside of what is contractually obligated.

We have excess of loss reinsurance agreements with entities that are considered VIEs. These entities finance the reinsurance coverage by issuing mortgage insurance-linked notes to unaffiliated investors. The assets of the VIEs are deposited in reinsurance trusts for our benefit that will be the source of reinsurance claim payments. Our involvement with these VIEs represents mortgage insurance claim coverage through excess of loss reinsurance, which includes significant insurance risk and a reasonable possibility of a significant loss but does not result in the unilateral power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIEs’ economic performance or result in the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits. Accordingly, consolidation of the VIEs is not required. Refer to note 7 for additional information related to our reinsurance agreements with entities that are considered VIEs.

w)Leases

We have leased assets predominantly classified as operating leases, which are recognized both as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability in our consolidated balance sheets. Our leased assets consist of office space ineight locations in the United States andone location in Mexico. Lease payments included in the calculation of our lease liability include fixed amounts contained within each rental agreement and variable lease payments that are based upon an index or rate. We combine lease and non-lease components and as a result, non-lease components are included in the calculation of our lease liability. Our remaining lease terms ranged from less thanone year to 13 years and had a weighted-average remaining lease term ofeight years as of December 31, 2025. The implicit rate of our lease agreements was not readily determinable; therefore, we utilized our incremental borrowing rate to discount future lease payments. The weighted-average discount rate was 6.9% as of December 31, 2025. The amount of contractual undiscounted lease obligations due in 2026,2027,2028,2029, and 2030 and thereafter is $12 million, $11 million, $5 million, $4 million and $26 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, theoperating lease liability recorded in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet of $45 million was net of imputed interest of $13 million.

x)Accounting Changes

Derivative Accounting Scope Refinement

On December 31, 2025, we elected to early adopt new accounting guidance to refine the scope of derivative accounting. The guidance added a scope exception for certain contracts that are not exchange-traded and have underlying variables based on the operations or activities of one of the parties to the contract. In accordance with the new accounting guidance, we adopted this guidance prospectively as of December 31, 2025, which did not have any impact at adoption.

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

On January 1, 2025, we adopted new accounting guidance to improve income tax disclosures. The guidance requires annual disclosure of specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation, separate disclosure of additional information related to reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and additional disclosures about income taxes paid, among other qualitative and quantitative disclosure improvements. We adopted this guidance using the retrospective method, which had no impact on our consolidated financial statements but expanded our income tax disclosures reflected in note 16 herein.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

On January 1, 2024, we adopted new accounting guidance to improve reportable segment disclosures, which was effective for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2024 and interim reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The guidance requires annual and interim disclosure of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and other segment items. The guidance also requires disclosures about a segment’s profit or loss and assets, previously only required annually, to be disclosed on an interim basis. We adopted this guidance using the retrospective method, which had no impact on our consolidated financial statements but expanded our segment disclosures reflected in note 21 herein.

Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions

On January 1, 2024, we adopted new accounting guidance related to the fair value measurement of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. The guidance clarified existing fair value guidance on measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual sale restrictions and added new disclosures related to these securities. We adopted this guidance using the prospective method, which did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Long-Duration Targeted Improvements

On January 1, 2023, we adopted new accounting guidance related to the recognition and measurement of long-duration insurance contracts, commonly known as long-duration targeted improvements. This new accounting guidance significantly changed the recognition and measurement of the assets and liabilities associated with the long-duration insurance contracts in our legacy insurance subsidiaries, and also significantly increased our disclosure requirements. The new guidance did not impact our Enact segment or Corporate and Other.

We adopted this new accounting guidance using the modified retrospective transition method for all topics except for MRBs, which was required to be applied using the retrospective transition method. The modified retrospective transition method generally resulted in applying the guidance to contracts on the basis of existing carrying values as of January 1, 2021 (the “Transition Date”). The new accounting guidance, for all topics, was applied as of the Transition Date with an adjustment to beginning retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Our long-term care insurance products were most significantly impacted by the adoption due to the requirement to remeasure the liability for future policy benefits and related reinsurance recoverables at the single-A bond rate as of the Transition Date, which at that time was materially lower than the locked-in discount rate.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, January 2021 and December 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new accounting guidance related to reference rate reform, which was effective for us on January 1, 2020 and effective for contract modifications made through December 31, 2024. The guidance temporarily eased the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform, which included the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). This guidance provided optional practical expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to investments, derivatives or other transactions affected by reference rate reform such as those that impact the assessment of derivative hedge effectiveness and contract modifications, to include continuing hedge accounting when certain critical terms of a hedging relationship change and modifying certain effectiveness assessments to exclude certain potential sources of ineffectiveness. The guidance was updated to clarify that the optional practical expedients and exceptions can be applied to derivatives that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment. In addition to the optional practical expedients, the guidance included a general principle that permits an entity to consider contract modifications due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. We adopted this guidance prospectively and it did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

y) Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In September 2025, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to accounting for internal-use software costs. The new guidance modified the cost capitalization threshold by removing project development stages and adding new capitalization considerations. Under the new standard, eligible costs are capitalized when management has authorized and committed funds to the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended purpose, commonly referred to as “the probable-to-complete threshold.” Additional disclosure will be required of internal-use software and related amortization regardless of how the internal-use software is classified on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to require disaggregated disclosures in the notes to the financial statements of certain categories of expenses included in our consolidated statements of operations, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. This guidance is effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028 using the prospective or retrospective method, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the guidance may have on our processes, controls and disclosures.

z) Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we corrected the measurement of our reinsurance recoverable for our traditional life insurance products that include non-proportional reinsurance treaties by aligning the recognition of gains on the recoverable assets with the underlying losses on the direct liabilities on a cohort basis. The correction only affected our reinsurance recoverable assets, deferred income taxes and total equity, and had no impact on the underlying reinsurance agreements or cash flows. We evaluated the effects of the correction on our previously issued financial statements, on a qualitative and quantitative basis, in accordance with accounting guidance issued by the FASB and the Securities and Exchange Commission related to accounting changes and error corrections and concluded the error was not material to our previously issued consolidated financial statements in any of the prior periods in which it occurred. However, we corrected the error in our historical financial statements included in this annual report by reducing equity as of December 31, 2022 by $50 million after-tax and by adjusting earnings in the fourth quarter of 2025, which increased net income by$11 million.

Under the corrected accounting treatment, non-proportional ceded reinsurance is floored and a gain is immediately recognized only to the extent that a flooring adjustment is recorded to the underlying direct liability for future policy benefits. The total ceded reinsurance gain in any given period is limited to the loss recognized on the underlying direct liability for future policy benefits in the same period, and no gain or loss is recognized upon entering into a reinsurance contract. See note 2(n) for a discussion of our policy for flooring the liability for future policy benefits.

The following table presents the impact of correcting the affected components of equity as of December 31:

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the tables above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the decline in fair value was largely due to increased interest rates since purchase and was not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

As of December 31, 2025, securities issued by finance and insurance, utilities, consumer—non-cyclical and technology and communications industry groups represented approximately 26%,15%,14% and 10%, respectively, of our domestic and foreign corporate fixed maturity securities portfolio. No other industry group comprised more than 10% of our investment portfolio.

As of December 31, 2025, we did not hold any fixed maturity securities in any single issuer, other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, which exceeded 10% of stockholders’ equity.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, securities of$42 million and$44 million, respectively, were on deposit with various state government insurance departments in order to comply with relevant insurance regulations.

(e)Commercial Mortgage Loans

Our mortgage loans are collateralized by commercial properties, including multi-family residential buildings. The carrying value of commercial mortgage loans is stated at original cost net of principal payments, amortization and allowance for credit losses.

We diversify our commercial mortgage loans by both property type and geographic region. The following tables set forth the distribution across property type and geographic region for commercial mortgage loans as of December 31:

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we hadone commercial mortgage loan in the office and industrial property types, respectively, with an amortized cost of $6 million and $7 million, respectively, that were more than 90 days past due and on non-accrual status. We wrote off $3 million and $4 million of these commercial mortgage loans during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, to adjust the carrying value down to the fair value of the collateral. These loans did not have an allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we foreclosed on the commercial mortgage loan that was past due as of December 31, 2024 and recorded the property as real estate owned in other invested assets in our consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2025, we also hadtwo commercial mortgage loans in the industrial property type with an aggregate amortized cost of $3 million that were 31 to 60 days past due. For a discussion of our policy related to placing commercial mortgage loans on non-accrual status, see note 2.

Occasionally, we may make modifications of interest rate reductions, term extensions and/or principal forgiveness related to commercial mortgage loans. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification. As the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses as a result of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we modifiedone commercial mortgage loan where the borrower was determined to be experiencing financial difficulty. This loan was included in the office property type with an amortized cost of $9 million as of December 31, 2025, which represented 1% of the total property type. The modification extended the contractual term of the loan bytwo years, with the option to extend by one additional year up to three times, and resulted in an increase to the interest rate. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we modifiedtwo commercial mortgage loans where the borrower was determined to be experiencing financial difficulty. These loans were included in the office and mixed use property types with an amortized cost of $35 million and$25 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024, which represented 3% and 7% of their total respective property types. The modifications extended the contractual term of each loan byten years and resulted in an increase to the interest rate. The commercial mortgage loan in the office property type was also changed from interest-only to amortizing. We continue to account for these modified loans as existing loans. As of December 31, 2025, all loans modified during the 12 months prior remained current.

The following table sets forth the allowance for credit losses related to commercial mortgage loans as of and for the years ended December 31:

Allowance for credit losses:
Beginning balance$39$27$22
Provision23165
Write-offs(3)(4)—
Recoveries———
Ending balance$59$39$27

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we increased the provision for credit losses primarily as a result of updates to the analytical model used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we increased the provision for credit losses primarily as a result of annual updates to underlying metrics included in the analytical model used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, which resulted in higher estimated loss rates.

In evaluating the credit quality of commercial mortgage loans, we assess the performance of the underlying loans using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Certain risks associated with commercial mortgage loans can be evaluated by reviewing both the debt-to-value and debt service coverage ratio to understand both the probability of the borrower not being able to make the necessary loan payments as well as the ability to sell the underlying property for an amount that would enable us to recover our unpaid principal balance in the event of default by the borrower. The average debt-to-value ratio is based on our most recent estimate of the fair value for the underlying property which is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A lower debt-to-value indicates that our loan value is more likely to be recovered in the event of default by the borrower if the property were sold. The debt service coverage ratio is based on “normalized” annual income of the property compared to the payments required under the terms of the loan. Normalization allows for the removal of annual one-time events such as capital expenditures, prepaid or late real estate tax payments or non-recurring third-party fees (such as legal, consulting or contract fees). This ratio is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A higher debt service coverage ratio indicates the borrower is less likely to default on the loan. The debt service coverage ratio is not used without considering other factors associated with the borrower, such as the borrower’s liquidity or access to other resources that may result in our expectation that the borrower will continue to make the future scheduled payments.

(5) Derivative Instruments

Our business activities routinely deal with fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, currency exchange rates and other asset and liability prices. We use derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce some of these risks. We have established policies for managing each of these risks, including prohibitions on derivatives market-making and other speculative derivatives activities. These policies require the use of derivative instruments in concert with other techniques to reduce or mitigate these risks. While we use derivatives to mitigate or reduce risks, certain derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments and are denoted as “derivatives not designated as hedges” in the following disclosures. For derivatives that meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedges, the following disclosures for these derivatives are denoted as “derivatives designated as hedges,” which include cash flow hedges.

The following table sets forth our positions in derivative instruments as of December 31:

Cash Flow Hedges

Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded as a component of OCI. We designate and account for the following as cash flow hedges when they have met the effectiveness requirements: (i) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate liabilities into fixed rate liabilities; (ii) receive U.S. dollar fixed on foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure of foreign currency denominated investments; (iii) forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in interest rates associated with future fixed rate bond purchases and/or interest income; (iv) forward bond purchase commitments to hedge against the variability in the anticipated cash flows required to purchase future fixed rate bonds; and (v) other instruments to hedge the cash flows of various forecasted transactions.

(2)Net of deferred taxes of $71 million, $77 million and $80 million during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The total balance in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) from derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of $187 million, net of taxes, recorded in stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2025 is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the future, concurrently with and primarily offsetting changes in interest expense and interest income on floating rate instruments and interest income on future fixed rate bond purchases. Of this amount, $112 million, net of taxes, is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the next 12 months. Actual amounts may vary from this amount as a result of market conditions. All forecasted transactions associated with qualifying cash flow hedges are expected to occur by 2057. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we reclassified $13 million, $10 million and $10 million, respectively, to net income (loss) in connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered reasonably possible of occurring.

Derivatives Not Designated As Hedges

We enter into certain non-qualifying derivative instruments such as equity index options and financial futures to mitigate the risks associated with liabilities that have guaranteed minimum benefits, fixed indexed annuities and indexed universal life. Our fixed indexed annuity and indexed universal life insurance products with certain features are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives. Additionally, we have forward bond purchase commitments to hedge against the variability in the anticipated cash flows required to purchase future fixed rate bonds, as well as foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with anticipated future foreign currency denominated cash flows.

(7) Reinsurance

We reinsure a portion of our policy risks to other insurance companies in order to reduce our ultimate losses, diversify our exposures and provide capital flexibility. We also assume certain policy risks written by other insurance companies. Reinsurance accounting is followed for ceded transactions when there is adequate insurance risk transfer. Otherwise, the deposit method of accounting is followed.

Reinsurance does not relieve us from our obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers are unable to meet their obligations, we remain liable for the reinsured claims. We monitor both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions, activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of default by such reinsurers. Other than the relationship discussed below with Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company (“UFLIC”), we do not have significant concentrations of reinsurance with any one reinsurer that could have a material impact on our financial position.

Closed Block

As of December 31, 2025, the maximum amount of individual ordinary life insurance normally retained by us on any one individual life policy was $5 million.

We have several significant reinsurance transactions (“Reinsurance Transactions”) with UFLIC, an affiliate of General Electric Company, which now operates as GE Aerospace (“GE”). In the Reinsurance Transactions, we ceded to UFLIC in-force blocks of structured settlements issued prior to 2004, substantially all of our in-force blocks of variable annuities issued prior to 2004 and a block of long-term care insurance policies that we reinsured in 2000 from legal entities now a part of Brighthouse Life Insurance Company. Although we remain directly liable under these contracts and policies as the ceding insurer, the Reinsurance Transactions have the effect of transferring the financial results of the reinsured blocks to UFLIC. To secure the payment of its obligations to us under the reinsurance agreements governing the Reinsurance Transactions, UFLIC has established trust accounts to maintain an aggregate amount of assets with a statutory book value at least equal to the statutory general account reserves attributable to the reinsured business less an amount required to be held in certain claims-paying accounts. A trustee administers the trust accounts and we are permitted to withdraw from the trust accounts amounts due to us pursuant to the terms of the reinsurance agreements that are not otherwise paid by UFLIC. In addition, pursuant to a Capital Maintenance Agreement, GE is obligated to maintain sufficient capital in UFLIC to maintain UFLIC’s risk-based capital (“RBC”) at not less than 150% of its company action level, as defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”).

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, our reinsurance recoverable related to UFLIC at the locked-in discount rate was $12,592 million and $12,773 million, respectively.

Under the terms of certain reinsurance agreements that our legacy insurance subsidiaries have with external parties, we pledged assets, including cash, in either separate portfolios or trusts for the benefit of external reinsurers. These assets support the reserves ceded to those external reinsurers. We have pledged fixed maturity securities, commercial mortgage loans and cashof $8,670 million, $329 million and $32 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025 and $8,337 million, $413 million and $33 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024 in connection with these reinsurance agreements. However, we maintain the ability to substitute these pledged assets for other qualified collateral, and may use, commingle, encumber or dispose of any portion of the collateral as long as there is no event of default and the remaining qualified collateral is sufficient to satisfy the collateral maintenance level.

Enact

Enact Holdings, through Enact Mortgage Insurance Corporation (“EMICO”), its principal U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, engages in various reinsurance transactions. EMICO engages in excess of loss transactions either through a panel of traditional reinsurance providers or through collateralized reinsurance with unaffiliated special purpose insurers that are considered VIEs. During the respective coverage periods of these agreements, EMICO retains the first layer of aggregate loss exposure on covered policies while the reinsurer provides the second layer of coverage, up to the defined reinsurance coverage amount, and EMICO retains losses in excess of the respective reinsurance coverage amount. Traditional reinsurance providers collateralize a portion of their coverage by holding funds in reinsurance trust accounts, and the VIEs fully collateralize their coverage by issuing mortgage insurance-linked notes to eligible capital market investors in unregistered private offerings. The notes are non-recourse to EMICO, and to Genworth Financial and its affiliates. EMICO has rights to terminate the insurance-linked notes or reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.

In 2025, EMICO executed three excess of loss reinsurance transactions that provide approximately $225 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of new insurance written for the 2025 book year and approximately $260 million and$170 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of expected new insurance written for the 2026 and 2027 book years, respectively.

In 2024, EMICO executed two excess of loss reinsurance transactions with a panel of reinsurers that provide up to $270 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of new insurance written for the 2024 book year and approximately $90 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of mortgage insurance written from July 2023 to December 2023.

EMICO also engages in quota share reinsurance agreements with a panel of third-party reinsurers. Under the agreements, EMICO cedes a percentage of premiums earned, claims and claims expenses on eligible policies. The agreements also include a specific ceding commission and a profit commission that is determined based on ceded claims. EMICO has rights to terminate the reinsurance agreements upon the occurrence of certain events.

In 2025, EMICO entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with a panel of reinsurers under which it will cede 33.75% of a portion of its expected new insurance written for the 2027 book year. In 2024, EMICO entered into quota share reinsurance agreements under which it ceded 21.225% and 27.15% of a portion of new insurance written for its 2024 and 2025 book years, respectively, and will cede, subject to certain conditions,27.00% of a portion of expected new insurance written for its 2026 book year.

In connection with its reinsurance activities, Enact Holdings maintained assets in trust of$336 million and $142 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, for the benefit of its contractual counterparties.

However, UFLIC has trust accounts and a guarantee from its parent, as discussed above, and is sufficiently collateralized and fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Reinsurance recoverables are considered past due when contractual payments have not been received from the reinsurer by the required payment date. Claims submitted for payment are generally due in less than one year. We hadno reinsurance recoverables past due as of December 31, 2025 and less than $1 million past due as of December 31, 2024.

Prior to 2023, we had amounts past due on a reinsurance recoverable associated with Scottish Re US Inc. (“Scottish Re”), a reinsurance company domiciled in Delaware that was ordered into receivership for the purposes of rehabilitation in 2019. In 2023, the receiver concluded that Scottish Re should be liquidated based upon adverse changes in its financial condition subsequent to the filing of the proposed and subsequently amended plan of rehabilitation. Scottish Re’s board of directors consented to the liquidation order, which was made final by the court shortly thereafter. In addition, the court’s liquidation order mandated all reinsurance agreements in-force with Scottish Re be terminated (or expire) by no later than September 30, 2023. In 2023, we determined that the reinsurance recoverable was uncollectible. As a result, we recorded an additional credit loss of $33 million and wrote off the entire reinsurance recoverable of $69 million against the allowance for credit losses, which included a previously established allowance of$36 million. We also recaptured all our life insurance policies from Scottish Re in 2023, which did not have a significant impact on our earnings for the year ended December 31, 2023, as the credit loss recognized during 2023 was offset by the derecognition of ceded premiums payable of approximately $33 million where we had the right of offset for the amounts owed to us by Scottish Re.

Effective December 31, 2023, we executed treaties with a third party to cede, on a yearly renewable term basis, certain term and universal life insurance products recaptured from Scottish Re, as well as some smaller blocks. This transaction resulted in a gain of$34 million that was deferred as cost of reinsurance and recorded as part of the reinsurance recoverable balance as of December 31, 2023; therefore, there was no impact to net income (loss).

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed our annual review of cash flow assumptions including benefit utilization, expected claim incidence, terminations and benefit reductions related to in-force rate actions, among other assumptions. The impact of changes in cash flow assumptions in 2025 resulted in an increase of $286 million in the liability for future policy benefits primarily driven by higher expected benefit utilization reflecting near-term experience related to cost of care inflation and unfavorable updates to our healthy life assumptions to better align with recent mortality and incidence trends. This was partially offset by favorable assumption updates reflecting in-force rate action approval experience and benefit reductions as well as favorable claim termination assumption updates. Our healthy life and claim termination assumption updates incorporated trends following the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”). The impact of actual variances from expected experience in 2025 resulted in an increase of $368 million in the liability for future policy benefits. This increase was primarily due to higher claims and lower terminations, partially offset by a $26 million gain related to a third-party recapture of a block of long-term care insurance policies. See note 22 for additional information on the third-party reinsurance recapture. The unfavorable impacts of cash flow assumption updates and actual variances from expected experience were partially offset in net income (loss) as a portion of the updates and lower termination experience was related to fully reinsured blocks of business.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we completed our annual review of cash flow assumptions including benefit utilization, incidence, mortality and in-force rate actions, among others. The impact of changes in cash flow assumptions in 2024 resulted in an increase of $146 million in the liability for future policy benefits primarily related to unfavorable updates to healthy life and near-term benefit utilization assumptions to better align with recent experience, including cost of care inflation. Although we did not make significant changes to our multi-year in-force rate action plan, the increase to the liability for future policy benefits was partially offset by favorable assumption updates for future in-force rate action approvals given our plans for rate increase filings and our recent experience regarding approvals and regulatory support. The increase to the liability for future policy benefits was also partially offset by favorable updates to our short-term incidence assumptions for incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims, reducing sufficiency held through a period of heightened uncertainty around incidence during and immediately following COVID-19. The unfavorable impact of changes in cash flow assumptions was partially offset in net income (loss) as a portion of the updates was related to fully reinsured blocks of business. The impact of actual variances from expected experience in 2024 resulted in an increase of $280 million in the liability for future policy benefits primarily due to lower terminations and higher claims.

There were no significant cash flow assumption changes in the fourth quarters of 2025 and 2024. The impact of actual variances from expected experience resulted in increases of $32 million and $19 million in the liability for future policy benefits during 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily due to unfavorable mortality experience.

Fixed annuities

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed our annual review of cash flow assumptions and decreased our liability for future policy benefits by $66 million primarily as a result of favorable updates to our mortality assumptions. These favorable impacts were partially offset in net income (loss) as a portion of the updates was related to reinsured blocks of business.

There were no significant cash flow assumption changes in thefourth quarter of 2024. The impact of actual variances from expected experience in 2024 resulted in a decrease of $39 million in the liability for future policy benefits primarily due to favorable mortality.

(3)Represents additional liabilities related to death or other insurance benefits that are recorded within policyholder account balances and are considered long-duration insurance contracts. See note 10 for additional information.

The contracts underlying the minimum guarantees, such as GMWBs and guaranteed annuitization benefits, are considered “in the money” if the present value of the contractholder’s benefits is greater than the account value, or commonly referred to as the net amount at risk. For GMWBs and guaranteed annuitization benefits, the only way the contractholder can monetize the excess of the benefits over the account value of the contract is through lifetime withdrawals or lifetime income payments after annuitization. For those guarantees of benefits that are payable in the event of death, the net amount at risk is generally defined as the current GMDB in excess of the current account balance at the balance sheet date.

Certain of our legacy insurance subsidiaries are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system in their respective regions. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we held$31 million and $34 million, respectively, of FHLB common stock related to those memberships, which was included in equity securities. The FHLBs have been granted a lien on certain of our invested assets to collateralize our obligations; however, we maintain the ability to substitute these pledged assets for other qualified collateral, and may use, commingle, encumber or dispose of any portion of the collateral as long as there is no event of default and the remaining qualified collateral is sufficient to satisfy the collateral maintenance level. Upon any event of default by us, the FHLB’s recovery on the collateral is limited to the amount of our funding agreement liabilities to the FHLB. These funding agreements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were collateralized by fixed maturity securities with a fair value of$336 million and $360 million, respectively. We hadno funding agreements outstanding with the FHLBs as of December 31, 2025 and $50 million as of December 31, 2024, which was included in policyholder account balances.

(10) Additional Insurance Liabilities

In the fourth quarter of 2025, as part of our annual review of assumptions, we decreased our additional insurance liabilities primarily related to favorable interest rate assumptions given the recent rate environment. The increase in our additional insurance liabilities from the effect of actual variances from expected experience during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily driven by unfavorable mortality.

In thefourth quarter of 2024, as part of our annual review of assumptions, we increased our additional insurance liabilities primarily related to an unfavorable update to mortality assumptions for universal life insurance contracts originating from term life insurance conversions and an unfavorable update to interest rate assumptions given the recent rate environment. The decrease in our additional insurance liabilities from the effect of actual variances from expected experience during the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a model refinement related to certain universal life insurance products with secondary guarantees.

The following table provides the weighted-average interest rates for our additional insurance liabilities as of December 31:

20252024
Interest accretion rate (1)3.4%3.4%
Projected crediting rate (2)3.9%3.8%

(1)The interest accretion rate is determined by using the weighted-average policyholder crediting rates for the underlying policies over the period in-force, and based on the adjusted beginning balance, is used to measure the amount of interest accretion.

(2)The projected crediting rate is determined by using a future crediting rate curve that utilizes a portfolio approach reflecting anticipated reinvestment activity and runoff of existing assets over the projection period. The projected crediting rate is used to discount future assessments and excess benefits.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, equity market performance was favorable, resulting in a decrease in the net MRB liability of our variable annuity products. This was partially offset by a decrease in risk-free interest rates, which increased the net MRB liability of our fixed indexed and variable annuity products.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, risk-free interest rates increased and equity markets were favorable, resulting in a decrease in the net MRB liability of our fixed indexed and variable annuity products. This was partially offset by unfavorable updates to our lapse assumptions.

The liability for policy and contract claims represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could be significant and result in increases in reserves by an amount that could be material to our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. Given the extended period of time that may exist between the reporting of a delinquency and the claim payment in our Enact segment, and changes in economic conditions and the real estate market, significant uncertainty and variability exist on amounts actually paid.

The favorable development related to insured events of prior years for the year ended December 31, 2025 was largely driven by strong cure performance and loss mitigation efforts in our Enact segment. Our Enact segment recorded $200 million of net favorable reserve adjustments in 2025, the majority of which were related to prior year delinquencies. A portion of the releases also related to lower expected claim rates on current year delinquencies reflecting sustained favorable cure performance and current market expectations.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, our Enact segment recorded reserve releases of$252 million primarily related to insured events of prior years, largely driven by favorable cure performance and loss mitigation activities. As part of these reserve releases, Enact decreased its claim rate assumptions primarily as a result of sustained favorable cure performance and lessening uncertainty in the economic environment, impacting reserves for insured events of both current and prior years.

The favorable development related to insured events of prior years for the year ended December 31, 2023 was predominantly associated with$241 million of reserve releases in our Enact segment primarily driven by favorable cure performance, including on delinquencies related to COVID-19. In addition, cure performance on delinquencies from 2022 had not been negatively impacted by uncertainty in the economic environment to the extent initially expected.

The following table sets forth information about incurred claims, net of reinsurance, as well as cumulative number of reported delinquencies and the total of IBNR liabilities plus expected development on reported claims included within the net incurred claims amounts for domestic mortgage insurance in our Enact segment as of December 31, 2025. The information about the incurred claims development for the years ended December 31, 2016 to 2024 and the historical reported delinquencies as of December 31, 2024 and prior are presented as supplementary information.

(14) Employee Benefit Plans

(a)Pension and Retiree Health and Life Insurance Benefit Plans

Essentially all of our employees are enrolled in a qualified defined contribution pension plan. The plan is 100% funded by Genworth. We make annual contributions to each employee’s pension plan account based on the employee’s age, service and eligible pay. Employees are vested in the plan after three years of service. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a liability related to these benefits of $9 million and$8 million, respectively.

In addition, certain employees also participate in non-qualified defined contribution plans and in qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans. The plan assets and pension liabilities, including the projected and accumulated benefit obligations of these plans, were not material to our consolidated financial statements individually or in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a liability related to these plans of $52 million and$51 million, respectively, which we accrued in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In 2025 and 2024, we recognized a decrease of$1 million and an increase of$2 million, respectively, in OCI.

We provide retiree health benefits to domestic employees hired prior to January 1, 2005 who meet certain service requirements. Under this plan, retirees over 65 years of age receive a subsidy towards the purchase of a Medigap policy, and retirees under 65 years of age receive medical benefits similar to our employees’ medical benefits. In December 2009, we announced that eligibility for retiree medical benefits would be limited to employees who were within 10 years of retirement eligibility as of January 1, 2010. We also provide retiree life and long-term care insurance benefits. The plans are funded as claims are incurred. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation associated with these benefits was $52 million and $51 million, respectively, which we accrued in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In 2024, we recognized an increase of $2 million in OCI.

Our cost associated with our pension and retiree health and life insurance benefit plans was $16 million, $15 million and $12 million for the years ended December 31, 2025,2024 and 2023, respectively.

(b)Savings Plans

Our domestic employees participate in qualified and non-qualified defined contribution savings plans that allow employees to contribute a portion of their pay to the plan on a pre-tax basis. We make matching contributions equal to 100% of the first 4% of pay deferred by an employee and 50% of the next 2% of pay deferred by an employee so that our matching contribution does not exceed 5% of an employee’s pay. Employees do not vest immediately in Genworth matching contributions but fully vest in the matching contributions aftertwo complete years of service. One option available to employees in the defined contribution savings plan is the ClearCourse® variable annuity option offered by certain of our legacy insurance subsidiaries. The amount of deposits recorded by our legacy insurance subsidiaries in 2025 and 2024 in relation to this plan option was less than $1 million for each year.

Our cost associated with these plans was$13 million,$11 million and $13 million for the years ended December 31, 2025,2024 and 2023, respectively.

(c)Health and Welfare Benefits for Active Employees

We provide health and welfare benefits to our employees, including health, life, disability, dental and long-term care insurance, among others. Our long-term care insurance is provided through our group long-term care insurance products. The premiums recorded by this business related to these benefits were insignificant during 2025,2024 and 2023.

Genworth Holdings

Long-Term Senior Notes

As of December 31, 2025, Genworth Holdings had outstanding fixed rate senior notes with an aggregate principal balance of $244 million, with an interest rate of 6.50% due in June 2034 (“2034 Notes”). The 2034 Notes are Genworth Holdings’ direct, unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all its existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. Genworth Financial provides a full and unconditional guarantee to the trustee and holders of Genworth Holdings’ 2034 Notes, on an unsecured unsubordinated basis, of the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on, and all other amounts payable under, the outstanding 2034 Notes and their respective indentures. Genworth Holdings has the option to redeem all or a portion of its 2034 Notes at any time with notice to the noteholders at a price equal to the greater of 100% of principal or the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the then-current treasury rate plus an applicable spread.

Long-Term Junior Subordinated Notes

As of December 31, 2025, Genworth Holdings had outstanding floating rate junior notes having an aggregate principal amount of $539 million and a discount of $1 million, with interest payable quarterly until the notes mature in November 2066 (“2066 Notes”). The 2066 Notes have an annual interest rate equal to the three-month Term SOFR Reference Rate, plus a tenor spread adjustment of 0.26161%, plus an additional spread of 2.0025%. Subject to certain conditions, Genworth Holdings has the right, on one or more occasions, to defer the payment of interest on the 2066 Notes during any period of up to 10 years without giving rise to an event of default and without permitting acceleration under the terms of the 2066 Notes. Genworth Holdings will not be required to settle deferred interest payments until it has deferred interest for five years or made a payment of current interest. In the event of our bankruptcy, holders would have a limited claim for deferred interest.

In connection with the issuance of the 2066 Notes, we entered into a Replacement Capital Covenant, whereby we agreed, for the benefit of holders of Genw orth Holdings’ 2034 Notes, that Genworth Holdings would not repay, redeem or repurchase all or any part of the 2066 Notes on or before November 15, 2046, unless such repayment, redemption or repurchase was made from the proceeds of the issuance of certain replacement capital securities and pursuant to the other terms and conditions set forth in the Replacement Capital Covenant. On October 25, 2023, Genworth Holdings completed a consent solicitation from bondholders representing a majority in principal amount of its 2034 Notes to amend the Replacement Capital Covenant. The amendment permits Genworth Holdings to repay, redeem or repurchase $2,000 principal amount of its 2066 Notes for each $1,000 principal amount of its 2034 Notes repaid, redeemed or repurchased. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Genworth Holdings repurchased $7 million of its 2066 Notes for a pre-tax gain of $1 million.

During the 180-day period prior to November 15, 2036, the “scheduled redemption date,” Genworth Holdings must use its commercially reasonable efforts, subject to certain conditions, to raise sufficient net proceeds from the sale of certain qualifying capital securities to redeem the 2066 Notes on the scheduled redemption date. If Genworth Holdings has not raised sufficient net proceeds to repay the 2066 Notes in full on the scheduled redemption date, it shall repay the 2066 Notes in part on such date and on each quarterly interest payment date thereafter to the extent that it has received net proceeds from the sale of such qualifying capital securities, until the 2066 Notes have been redeemed in full. Genworth Holdings may otherwise redeem the 2066 Notes at any time in whole or in part at their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption, subject to compliance with the amended Replacement Capital Covenant.

The 2066 Notes will be subordinated to all existing and future senior, subordinated and junior subordinated debt of Genworth Holdings, except for any future debt that by its terms is not superior in right of payment, and will be effectively subordinated to all liabilities of our subsidiaries. Genworth Financial provides a full and unconditional guarantee to the trustee and holders of the 2066 Notes, on an unsecured subordinated basis, of the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, interest on, and all other amounts payable under, the outstanding 2066 Notes and their respective indentures.

As of December 31, 2025, Enact Holdings had$750 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding unsecured senior notes due in May 2029 (“2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 6.25%, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 28 and November 28 of each year. Enact Holdings has the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2029 Notes at any time prior to April 28, 2029 with notice to the noteholders at a price equal to the greater of the present value of the remaining scheduled principal and interest payments discounted at the then-current treasury rate plus 30 basis points or 100% of the principal, plus in either case, accrued and unpaid interest. At any time on or after April 28, 2029, Enact Holdings may redeem all or a portion of its 2029 Notes with notice to the noteholders at a price equal to 100% of the principal plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2029 Notes contain customary events of default, which subject to certain notice and cure conditions, can result in the acceleration of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding notes if Enact Holdings breaches the terms of the indenture.

(b) Revolving Credit Facility

On September 30, 2025, Enact Holdings entered into afive-year unsecured revolving credit facility (“2025 Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of lenders in the initial aggregate principal amount of $435 million to replace its then outstanding $200 million revolving credit facility dated June 30, 2022. The 2025 Credit Facility includes the ability for Enact Holdings to increase the commitments on an uncommitted basis, by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to approximately $218 million. Any borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility will accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index selected at Enact Holdings’ option, plus an applicable margin, pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement. The applicable margin is based on Enact Holdings’ ratings established by certain debt rating agencies for its senior unsecured debt. The 2025 Credit Facility includes customary representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions. As of December 31, 2025, Enact Holdings was in compliance with all covenants and the 2025 Credit Facility remained undrawn.

(c) Liquidity

An aggregate principal amount of$750 million of our long-term borrowings matures in 2029, with the remaining combined$783 million aggregate principal amount maturing thereafter.

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 was below the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 21% primarily driven by a valuation allowance release in 2025, partially offset by tax expense on certain forward starting swap gains that are tax effected at the previously enacted federal income tax rate of 35% as they are amortized into net investment income. The effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was above the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 21% largely due to tax expense on certain forward starting swap gains that are tax effected at the previously enacted federal income tax rate of 35% as they are amortized into net investment income.

The gross amount of net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards, which include U.S. federal and Mexico, was$25 million as of December 31, 2025. Capital loss carryforwards amounted to$402 million as of December 31, 2025, and, if unused, will expire in 2026.

Our valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $545 million and $639 million, respectively. In 2025, we released $100 million of the domestic federal valuation allowance related to capital deferred tax assets. The release was a result of the change in unrealized gains (losses) on our fixed maturity securities due to decreasing interest rates and an increase in unrealized gains on our limited partnerships due to current market conditions, and a corresponding increase in unrealized capital gains expected to be available in the future to offset our capital loss carryforwards and other capital deferred tax assets. Of the $100 million released, $53 million was recorded through accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), $41 million was recognized in income (loss) from continuing operations, and $6 million was recognized in income (loss) from discontinued operations resulting in an ending valuation allowance of $200 million related to domestic federal deferred tax assets of a capital character as of December 31, 2025. The remainder of the valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was related to state deferred tax assets and foreign NOLs. The state deferred tax assets related primarily to the non-insurance NOL carryforwards.

Our ability to realize our net deferred tax asset of$1,800 million, which includes deferred tax assets related to capital loss and NOL carryforwards, is primarily dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income and capital gains in future years. We have net deferred tax assets of$923 million that have or will produce capital losses. As part of the assessment of the amount of the valuation allowance, management has asserted that it has the ability and intent to execute tax planning strategies including holding certain investment assets with unrealized losses to recovery or maturity or realizing gains on certain investment assets with unrealized gains to the extent necessary to ensure realization of the capital related deferred tax assets, net of the $200 million valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025.

We have net deferred tax assets of$877 million that will produce ordinary income (loss) in future years. Management has concluded that there is sufficient positive evidence to support the expected realization of these deferred tax assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This positive evidence includes the fact that: (i) we are currently in a cumulative three-year income position, and (ii) our U.S. operating forecasts are profitable, which include ongoing income from our mortgage insurance business and in-force premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions already obtained in our long-term care insurance business in our Closed Block segment.

After consideration of all available evidence, we have concluded that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets, with the exception of capital loss carryforwards, other capital deferred tax assets, state deferred tax assets and certain foreign NOLs for which a valuation allowance has been established, will be realized. If our actual results do not validate the current projections of pre-tax income, we may be required to record an additional valuation allowance that could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements in future periods.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits was as follows:

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $21 million as of December 31, 2025, which if recognized would affect the effective tax rate on continuing operations by $21 million. These unrecognized tax benefits include the impact of foreign currency translation from our international operations.

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax expense. We recorded $2 million, $2 million and$— of expense in 2025,2024 and 2023, respectively.

Our companies have elected to file a single U.S. consolidated income tax return (the “life/non-life consolidated return”). All companies domesticated in the United States and our Bermuda subsidiary, a company treated as a U.S. domestic company for U.S. tax purposes, are included in the life/non-life consolidated return as allowed by the tax law and regulations, with the exception of CareScout Insurance Company, which became a life insurance company and is required to file separately for a period of five years effective 2025. We have a tax sharing agreement in place and all intercompany balances related to this agreement are settled at least annually. We are not currently subject to any significant examinations by federal or state income tax authorities. Generally, we are no longer subject to federal or state income tax examinations for years prior to 2022.

(17) Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Cash paid for interest was $101 million, $124 million and $110 million for the years ended December 31, 2025,2024 and 2023, respectively. See note 16 for cash paid for taxes in 2025, 2024 and 2023.

(18) Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Genworth Financial

We have granted share-based awards to employees and directors, including restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance stock units (“PSUs”), deferred stock units (“DSUs”) and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) under the 2004 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”), the 2012 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive

Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and the 2018 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). In May 2021, the 2021 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was approved by stockholders. Under the 2021 Plan, we were authorized to grant 25 million equity awards, plus a number of additional shares not to exceed 20 million underlying awards outstanding under the prior Plans. In May 2025, the 2025 Genworth Financial, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”) was approved by stockholders. Under the 2025 Plan, we are authorized to grant 10.5 million equity awards, plus the number of shares not to exceed 12.8 million remaining available for grant under the 2021 Plan, plus a number of additional shares not to exceed 19 million underlying awards outstanding under the prior Plans. The 2004 Plan together with the 2012, 2018, 2021 and 2025 Plans are referred to collectively as the “Omnibus Incentive Plans.”

We recorded long-term incentive compensation expense under the Omnibus Incentive Plans of$39 million,$32 million and$34 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2025,2024 and 2023, which included stock-based compensation expense of$39 million,$31 million and$29 million, respectively. Long-term incentive compensation expense was recognized evenly on a straight-line attribution method over the awards’ respective vesting period.

During 2025,2024 and 2023, we issued RSUs with average restriction periods ofthree years and a weighted-average grant date fair value of$6.80,$6.15 and$6.05, respectively, measured at the market price of a share of our Common Stock on the grant date.

During 2025,2024 and 2023, we granted PSUs with a fair value of$7.22,$6.48 and$6.76, respectively, calculated as described in further detail below as of the approval date by Genworth Financial’s Board of Directors. PSUs may be earned over athree-year period based upon the achievement of certain performance goals.

The PSUs granted in 2025 have athree-year measurement period starting on January 1, 2025 going through December 31, 2027. The performance measures include Genworth’s total shareholder return compared to certain of its peer companies established as of the grant date, our Enact segment’s book value per share growth and the net present value of rate actions. Rate actions are defined as future expected premium increases and benefit reductions on our long-term care insurance products in our Closed Block segment as a result of rate increases approved on individual and group long-term care insurance policies and reserve releases less cash payments to policyholders related to legal settlements or other in-force management actions, net of reinsurance.

The PSUs granted in 2024 have athree-year measurement period starting on January 1, 2024 going through December 31, 2026. The performance measures include the net present value of rate actions, Genworth’s total shareholder return compared to certain of its peer companies established as of the grant date and the adjusted operating income (loss) of our Enact segment. See note 21 for our definition of adjusted operating income (loss).

The PSUs granted in 2023 have athree-year measurement period starting on January 1, 2023 going through December 31, 2025. The performance measures include the consolidated statutory pre-tax income of our legacy insurance subsidiaries, the adjusted operating income (loss) of our Enact segment and Genworth’s total shareholder return compared to certain of its peer companies established as of the grant date.

For the PSUs granted in 2025, 2024 and 2023, the grant-date fair value for the total relative shareholder return performance measure was calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation, and the grant-date fair value for all other performance measures was based on market price of a share of our Common Stock as of the approval date. The grant-date fair value and the valuation assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation were as follows:

202520242023

(19) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

We have fixed maturity securities, equity securities, limited partnerships, derivatives, short-term investments, embedded derivatives, separate account assets, MRBs and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value. Below is a description of the valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair value by class of instrument.

Fixed maturity securities, equity securities and short-term investments

The fair value of fixed maturity securities, equity securities and short-term investments is estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), broker quotes and/or internal models, which may use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities), an income approach may be used. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.

Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.

Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3. Broker quotes may be utilized when pricing services data is not available and are typically classified as Level 3 due to the use of significant unobservable inputs.

For certain private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placements with the public bonds, price caps, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs, leading to a classification of Level 2. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of December 31, 2025.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

A summary of the inputs used for our financial instruments carried at fair value based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.

Level 1 measurements

Equity securities. The primary inputs to the valuation of exchange-traded equity securities include quoted prices for the identical instrument.

Separate account assets. The fair value of separate account assets is based on the quoted prices of the underlying fund investments and, therefore, represents Level 1 pricing.

Level 2 measurements

Fixed maturity securities

Third-party pricing services: In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities,88% of our portfolio was priced using pricing services as of December 31, 2025. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

The following table presents a summary of the significant inputs used by our pricing services for certain fair value measurements of fixed maturity securities that are classified as Level 2 as of December 31, 2025:

Internal models: A portion of our U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $1,759 million and $831 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.

Equity securities. The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active.

Short-term investments. The fair value of short-term investments classified as Level 2 is determined after considering prices obtained by pricing services.

Level 3 measurements

Fixed maturity securities

Third-party pricing services: A portion of our non-U.S. government, U.S. corporate, non-U.S. corporate and other asset-backed securities are valued using pricing services. These pricing services utilize income-based approaches and internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. Pricing services utilized for valuation are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by pricing services was $241 million as of December 31, 2025.

Broker quotes: A portion of our non-U.S. government, U.S. corporate, non-U.S. corporate, residential mortgage-backed, commercial mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are valued using broker quotes. Broker quotes are obtained from third-party providers that have current market knowledge to provide a reasonable price for securities not routinely priced by pricing services. Brokers utilized for valuation of assets are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by broker quotes was $184 million as of December 31, 2025.

Internal models: A portion of our U.S. corporate, non-U.S. corporate, residential mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are valued using internal models. The primary inputs to the valuation of the bond population include quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which can include significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage ratios, payment priority with the tranche, benchmark yields and credit spreads. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced using internal models was $2,646 million as of December 31, 2025.

Equity securities. The primary inputs to the valuation include broker quotes where the underlying inputs are unobservable and for internal models, structure of the security and issuer rating.

Limited partnerships. The fair value of limited partnerships classified as Level 3 is determined based on third-party valuation sources that utilize unobservable inputs, such as a reference to public market or private transactions, valuations for comparable companies or assets, discounted cash flows and/or recent transactions.

Short-term investments. The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain securities are valued using pricing services that utilize income-based approaches and internally generated models as part of the valuation processes.

Net asset value

Limited partnerships. Limited partnerships are valued based on comparable market transactions, discounted future cash flows, quoted market prices and/or estimates using the most recent data available for the underlying instrument. We utilize the NAV from the underlying fund statements as a practical expedient for fair value.

We consider counterparty collateral arrangements and rights of set-off when evaluating our net credit risk exposure to our derivative counterparties. Accordingly, we are permitted to include consideration of these arrangements when determining whether any incremental adjustment should be made for both the counterparty’s and our non-performance risk in measuring fair value for our derivative instruments. As a result of these counterparty arrangements, we determined that any adjustment for credit risk would not be material, and we have not recorded any incremental adjustment for our non-performance risk or the non-performance risk of the derivative counterparties for our derivative assets or liabilities.

Interest rate swaps. The valuation of interest rate swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary input into the valuation represents the forward interest rate swap curve, which is generally considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2. For certain interest rate swaps, the inputs into the valuation also include the total returns of certain bonds that would primarily be considered an observable input and result in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Foreign currency swaps. The valuation of foreign currency swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve and foreign currency exchange rates, both of which are considered observable inputs, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Equity index options. We have equity index options associated with various equity indices. The valuation of equity index options is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent forward interest rates, equity index volatility, equity index and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative. The equity index volatility surface is determined based on market information that is not readily observable and is developed based upon inputs received from several third-party sources. Accordingly, these options are classified as Level 3. As of December 31, 2025, a significant increase (decrease) in the equity index volatility discussed above would have resulted in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Financial futures. The fair value of financial futures is based on the closing exchange prices. Accordingly, these financial futures are classified as Level 1. The period end valuation iszeroas a result of settling the margins on these contracts on a daily basis.

Forward bond purchase commitments. The valuation of forward bond purchase commitments is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent current bond prices and interest rates, as well as an estimate of the cost of counterparty financing to acquire and carry the bond during the forward period. The estimated cost of counterparty financing is not readily observable and is developed based upon an assumed spread; accordingly, these derivatives are classified as Level 3.

Foreign currency forward contracts. The valuation of foreign currency forward contracts is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward foreign currency exchange rates, which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Fixed indexed annuity and indexed universal life embedded derivatives. We have fixed indexed annuity and indexed universal life insurance products where interest is credited to the policyholder’s account balance based on equity index changes. This feature is required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach where the present value of the excess cash flows above the guaranteed cash flows is used to determine the value attributed to the equity index feature. The inputs used in determining the fair value include policyholder behavior (lapses and withdrawals), near-term equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. As a result of our assumptions for expected future interest credited being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments as Level 3. As expected future interest credited decreases, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As of December 31, 2025, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Market risk benefits

MRBs are contracts or contract features that provide protection to the contractholder while exposing us to other-than-nominal capital market risk. MRBs include certain contract features on fixed and variable annuity products that provide minimum guarantees, in addition to the policyholder account balance, such as GMDBs, GMWBs and GPAFs. MRBs are measured at fair value using an income-based valuation model based on current net amounts at risk, market data, experience and other factors. See note 2 for a discussion of our policy for recording changes in fair value of MRBs.

MRB assets and liabilities for minimum guarantees are valued and presented separately from the related separate account and policyholder account balances.

Fixed indexed annuities

The valuation of fixed indexed annuities MRBs, which includes GMWB features, is based on an income approach that incorporates inputs such as policyholder behavior (GMWB utilization, lapses and mortality), equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. Our discount rate used to determine fair value of our fixed indexed annuities MRBs includes market credit spreads above U.S. Treasury rates to reflect an adjustment for the non-performance risk of the fixed indexed annuities MRBs. We determine fair value using an internal model based on the various inputs noted above. As a result of our assumptions for GMWB utilization, expected future interest credited and non-performance risk being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments as Level 3. As expected future interest credited decreases or GMWB utilization increases, the value of our fixed indexed annuities MRB liability will increase. Any increase in non-performance risk would increase the discount rate and would decrease the fair value of the liability. As of December 31, 2025, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Refer to note 11 for additional details related to the changes in the fair value measurement of fixed indexed annuities MRBs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Variable annuities

The valuation of our variable annuities MRBs, which includes GMWB, GMDB and GPAF features, is based on an income approach that incorporates inputs such as policyholder behavior (GMWB utilization, lapses and mortality), equity index volatility, interest rates, equity index and fund correlation and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. Our discount rate used to determine fair value of our variable annuities MRBs includes market credit spreads above U.S. Treasury rates to reflect an adjustment for the non-performance risk of the variable annuities MRBs. We determine fair value using an internal model based on the various inputs noted above. We classify the variable annuities MRBs valuation as Level 3 based on having significant unobservable inputs, with policyholder behavior (GMWB utilization and lapses), equity index volatility and non-performance risk being considered the more significant unobservable inputs. As equity index volatility increases, the fair value of the variable annuities MRBs will increase. An increase in our lapse assumption would decrease the fair value of the variable annuities MRBs, whereas an increase in our GMWB utilization rate would increase the fair value. Any increase in non-performance risk would increase the discount rate and would decrease the fair value of the liability. As of December 31, 2025, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Refer to note 11 for additional details related to the changes in the fair value measurement of variable annuities MRBs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The assets included in the table above are valued using internal models for our fixed maturity securities and discounted cash flows for derivative and other assets. Certain classes of instruments classified as Level 3 are excluded above as a result of not being material or due to limitations in being able to obtain the underlying inputs used by certain third-party sources, such as broker quotes, used as an input in determining fair value.

Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset or liability but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period. Such activity primarily consists of purchases, sales and settlements of fixed maturity and equity securities and purchases, issuances and settlements of derivative instruments.

Issuances for fixed indexed annuity and indexed universal life embedded derivative liabilities represent the amount of the premium received that is attributed to the value of the embedded derivative. Settlements of embedded derivatives are characterized as the change in fair value upon exercising the embedded derivative instrument, effectively representing a settlement of the embedded derivative instrument. We have shown these changes in fair value separately based on the classification of this activity as effectively issuing and settling the embedded derivative instrument with all remaining changes in the fair value of these embedded derivative instruments being shown separately in the category labeled “included in net (income) loss” in the tables presented above.

The following table presents a summary of the significant unobservable inputs used for certain liability fair value measurements that are based on internal models and classified as Level 3 as of December 31, 2025:

Assets and Liabilities Not Required to Be Carried at Fair Value

Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value are not included in the following disclosure of fair value. Such items include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, investment securities, MRBs, separate accounts and derivative instruments. Apart from certain of our borrowings and certain marketable securities, few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using internal models. The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon available market information and judgments about the financial instruments, including estimates of the timing and amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of counterparties. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time our entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses. In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets.

The following represents our estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not required to be carried at fair value as of December 31:

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had $29 million and $25 million, respectively, of real estate owned and associated assets included in other invested assets in our consolidated balance sheets acquired through foreclosure in full or partial settlement of commercial mortgage loan obligations. These properties are initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs (the carrying value) and are subsequently valued at the lower of the carrying value or current fair value less estimated selling costs. As of December 31, 2024, these properties were recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, which was less than the carrying value. These amounts represented the fair value as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The fair value of the real estate owned assets is classified as Level 2.

Assets Measured Using Net Asset Value

Limited partnerships include partnership interests accounted for using NAV per share (or its equivalent) or fair value for those interests considered minor and partnership interests accounted for under the equity method of accounting for those interests exceeding the minor threshold. Our limited partnership interests accounted for using NAV per share (or its equivalent) are generally not redeemable by the investees and generally cannot be sold without approval of the general partner. We receive distributions of income and proceeds from the liquidation of the underlying assets of the investees, which usually takes place in years five toten of the typical contractual life often to 12 years.

The following table presents the carrying value of limited partnerships and commitments to fund as of December 31:

(20) Insurance Subsidiary Financial Information and Regulatory Matters

Dividends

Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to oversight by applicable insurance laws and regulations as to the amount of dividends they may pay to their parent in any year, the purpose of which is to protect affected insurance policyholders or contractholders, not stockholders. In general, dividends and distributions are required to be submitted to an insurer’s domiciliary department of insurance for review, and the payment of any dividend or distribution from a source other than unassigned surplus requires prior written regulatory approval. Enact Holdings’ ability to pay dividends is limited in part by such regulatory restrictions on its insurance subsidiaries. Based on estimated statutory results as of December 31, 2025, in accordance with applicable dividend restrictions, Enact Holdings’ U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries could pay dividends from unassigned surplus of approximately$3 million in 2026 without affirmative regulatory approval, although notice of the intent to pay must be provided to the state insurance commissioner 30 days in advance thereof, during which time the commissioner may review the dividend pursuant to statutory standards. Our legacy insurance subsidiaries had negative unassigned surplus of$368 million under statutory accounting as of December 31, 2025 and as a result, cannot pay dividends to us in 2026. In addition, we manage our legacy insurance subsidiaries on a standalone basis and accordingly, do not expect to receive any dividends or other returns of capital from them in the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2025, Genworth Financial’s and Genworth Holdings’ consolidated subsidiaries had restricted net assets of$8.9 billion and$9.3 billion, respectively.

As the majority shareholder, Genworth Holdings received$98 million, $91 million and $174 million, respectively, of dividends in 2025,2024 and 2023 from Enact Holdings. Future dividends paid by Enact Holdings are subject to quarterly review and approval by its board of directors and Genworth Financial, and will also be dependent on a variety of economic, market and business conditions. None of our life insurance subsidiaries paid dividends in 2025,2024 or 2023.

Our U.S. domiciled insurance subsidiaries file financial statements with state insurance regulatory authorities and the NAIC that are prepared on an accounting basis either prescribed or permitted by such authorities. Statutory accounting practices differ from U.S. GAAP in several respects, causing differences in reported net income (loss) and stockholders’ equity.

Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed but that have been specifically allowed by individual state insurance authorities. Our U.S. domiciled insurance subsidiaries have no material permitted accounting practices, except for River Lake Insurance Company VI (“River Lake VI”) and River Lake Insurance Company X (“River Lake X”). The permitted practices of River Lake VI and River Lake X were an essential element of their design and were expressly included in their plans of operation and in the licensing orders issued by their domiciliary state regulators, and without those permitted accounting practices, these entities could be subject to regulatory action. Accordingly, we believe that the permitted accounting practices will remain in effect for so long as we maintain these entities. The material permitted accounting practices were as follows:

In 2025 and 2024, River Lake VI had a permitted accounting practice from the State of Delaware to carry its excess of loss reinsurance agreements with The Canada Life Assurance Company for its universal and term life insurance business assumed from Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company (“GLAIC”) as an admitted asset.

In 2025 and 2024, River Lake X had a permitted accounting practice from the State of Vermont to carry its excess of loss reinsurance agreement with Hannover Life Reassurance Company of America for its term life insurance business assumed from GLAIC as an admitted asset.

The impact of these permitted accounting practices of River Lake VI and River Lake X on our combined U.S. domiciled life insurance subsidiaries’ statutory capital and surplus waszero as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. If these permitted accounting practices had not been used, no regulatory event would have been triggered.

For regulatory purposes, our U.S. mortgage insurers are required to establish a special statutory contingency reserve. Annual additions to the statutory contingency reserve must be at least 50% of net earned premiums, as defined by state insurance laws and regulations. These contingency reserves generally are held until the earlier of (i) the time that loss ratios exceed 35% or (ii)10 years. However, approval by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”) is required for contingency reserve releases when loss ratios exceed 35%. The statutory contingency reserve for our U.S. mortgage insurers was approximately$4.5 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and is included in the table below containing combined statutory capital and surplus balances.

The tables below include the combined statutory net income and statutory capital and surplus for our U.S. domiciled insurance subsidiaries for the periods indicated:

Combined statutory capital and surplus$8,958$8,750

(1)Includes our legacy insurance subsidiaries as well as our start-up insurance subsidiary, CareScout Insurance Company.

The statutory net income from our captive life reinsurance subsidiaries, River Lake VI and River Lake X, relates to the reinsurance of term and universal life insurance statutory reserves assumed from GLAIC. These reserves are, in turn, secured by excess of loss reinsurance treaties with third parties. Additionally, the life insurance subsidiaries’ combined statutory net income (loss) and distributable income are not affected by the statutory net income of the captives, except to the extent dividends are received from the captives. The combined statutory capital and surplus of our life insurance subsidiaries does not include the capital and surplus of our captive life reinsurance subsidiaries of$105 million and $101 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Capital Requirements of U.S. Life Insurers

The NAIC has adopted RBC requirements to evaluate the adequacy of statutory capital and surplus in relation to risks associated with: (i) asset risk; (ii) insurance risk; (iii) interest rate risk; and (iv) business risk. The RBC formula is designated as an early warning tool for the states to identify potentially weakly capitalized companies for purposes of facilitating regulatory action. In the course of operations, we periodically monitor the RBC level of each of our life insurance subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, each of our life insurance subsidiaries exceeded the minimum required RBC levels in their respective domiciliary state. The consolidated RBC ratio on a company action level basis of GLIC and its U.S. domiciled life insurance subsidiaries was approximately 300% and 306% as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In 2025,2024 and 2023, we released$60 million, $85 million and $99 million, respectively, of statutory reserves resulting from updates to our universal and term universal life insurance products with secondary guarantees as part of Actuarial Guideline 38 8D in our Virginia and Delaware licensed life insurance subsidiaries.

As a part of our cash flow testing process for our legacy insurance subsidiaries, we consider incremental benefits from expected future in-force rate actions in our long-term care insurance products that would help mitigate the impact of deteriorating experience. The New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”), which regulates Genworth

Life Insurance Company of New York (“GLICNY”), requires specific adequacy testing scenarios that are generally more severe than those deemed acceptable in other states. Moreover, the required testing scenarios by the NYDFS have a disproportionate impact on our long-term care insurance products. In addition, we use New York specific experience for setting assumptions in our long-term care insurance products in GLICNY. While the NYDFS generally does not permit in-force rate increases for long-term care insurance to be used in asset adequacy analysis until such increases have been approved, it has allowed GLICNY to incorporate recently filed in-force rate actions in its asset adequacy analysis prior to approval in the past.

As a result, after discussions with the NYDFS and through the exercise of professional actuarial judgment, GLICNY incorporated in its 2024 asset adequacy analysis assumptions for future in-force rate actions for long-term care insurance products to offset the emerging adverse experience for these products. With these assumption updates, GLICNY’s 2024 asset adequacy analysis produced a negative margin. To address the negative margin, GLICNY recorded an incremental $79 million of additional statutory reserves in 2024. As a result of the 2024 activity, the aggregate amount of statutory reserves established by GLICNY for asset adequacy deficits increased to $871 million ($836 million related to long-term care insurance and $35 million related to variable annuities) as of December 31, 2024. For GLICNY’s 2025 asset adequacy analysis, which included a conditional approval of an in-force rate action but not an assumption for additional future in-force rate actions, the margin was positive. Accordingly, no additional statutory reserves were required to be recorded.

Capital Requirements of U.S. Mortgage Insurers

Mortgage insurers are not subject to the NAIC’s RBC requirements, but certain states and other regulators impose another form of capital requirement on mortgage insurers requiring maintenance of a risk-to-capital ratio not to exceed 25:1. Enact Holdings’ mortgage insurance subsidiaries are domiciled in North Carolina, andfifteen other states maintain similar risk-to-capital requirements. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the risk-to-capital ratio of Enact Holdings’ combined mortgage insurance subsidiaries was approximately 10.1:1 and 10.5:1, respectively, under the current regulatory framework as established under North Carolina law and enforced by the NCDOI, Enact Holdings’ insurance subsidiaries’ domestic insurance regulator. Each of Enact Holdings’ mortgage insurance subsidiaries met its respective capital requirements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Private mortgage insurers must meet the operational and financial requirements under private mortgage insurer eligibility requirements (“PMIERs”) as set forth by the government-sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”) in order to remain eligible to insure loans that are purchased by the GSEs. Each approved mortgage insurer is required to provide the GSEs with an annual certification and a quarterly report evidencing its compliance with PMIERs.

Enact has met all PMIERs reporting requirements as required by the GSEs. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, Enact had estimated available assets of$5,015 million and$5,095 million, respectively, against $3,096 million and$3,043 million, respectively, net required assets under PMIERs. The sufficiency ratio as of December 31, 2025 was 162%, or$1,919 million above the PMIERs requirements, compared to 167%, or$2,052 million above the PMIERs requirements as of December 31, 2024.

Securities on deposit

Certain of our insurance subsidiaries have securities on deposit with various state or foreign government insurance departments in order to comply with relevant insurance regulations. See note 4(d) for additional information related to these deposits. Additionally, under the terms of certain reinsurance agreements that our insurance subsidiaries have with external parties, we pledged assets in either separate portfolios or in trust for the benefit of external reinsurers. These assets support the reserves ceded to those external reinsurers. See note 7 for additional information related to these pledged assets under reinsurance agreements. Certain of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries are also members of regional FHLBs, and the FHLBs have been granted a lien on certain of our invested assets to collateralize our obligations. See note 9 for additional information related to these pledged assets with the FHLBs.

Guarantees of obligations

Genworth Holdings provided an unlimited guarantee for the benefit of policyholders for the payment of valid claims by our European mortgage insurance subsidiary prior to its sale in May 2016. Following the sale of this United Kingdom subsidiary to AmTrust Financial Services, Inc., the guarantee was limited to the payment of valid claims on policies in-force prior to the sale date and those written approximately 90 days subsequent to the date of the sale, and AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. has agreed to provide us with a limited indemnification in the event there is any exposure under the guarantee. As of December 31, 2025, the risk in-force of active policies was approximately$800 million.

(21) Segment Information

(a) Reportable Segment Information

We have the followingtwo reportable segments: Enact, comprised primarily of private mortgage insurance products, and Closed Block, comprised of long-term care insurance, life insurance and annuity products that were previously sold through our legacy insurance subsidiaries. In addition to ourtwo reportable segments, we also have Corporate and Other, which includes debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, and eliminations of inter-segment transactions. Corporate and Other also includes the results of other businesses that are not individually reportable, such as CareScout Services, CareScout Insurance and certain international businesses.

We allocate tax to our businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21%. Each segment is then adjusted to reflect the unique tax attributes of that segment, such as permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other.

We use the same accounting policies and procedures to measure segment income (loss) and assets as our consolidated net income (loss) and assets. Our CODM, who is our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and allocates resources for our reportable segments based on “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders.” Our CODM evaluates adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as a key measure to assess performance and support new business initiatives because the measure more accurately reflects overall operating performance, as it minimizes the impact of macroeconomic volatility. Our legacy insurance subsidiaries, which comprise our Closed Block segment, are managed on a standalone basis; therefore, we do not allocate capital to our Closed Block segment.

We define adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), changes in fair value of market risk benefits attributable to interest rates, equity markets and associated hedges, gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. A component of our net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to our discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. We exclude net investment gains (losses), changes in fair value of market risk benefits attributable to interest rates, equity markets and associated hedges, gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders because, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating performance.

Adjustments to reconcile reportable segment adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to consolidated net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders assume a 21% current tax rate, plus any associated deferred taxes, and are net of the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests.

The following table presents adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for our reportable segmentsfor the years ended December 31:

(22) Commitments and Contingencies

(a) Litigation and Regulatory Matters

We face the risk of litigation and regulatory investigations or other actions in the ordinary course of operating our businesses, including the risk of class action lawsuits. Our pending legal and regulatory actions include proceedings specific to us and others generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which we operate. In our insurance operations, we are, have been, or may become subject to class actions and individual suits alleging, among other things, issues relating to sales or underwriting practices, increases to in-force long-term care insurance premiums, payment of contingent or other sales commissions, claims payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, product administration, additional premium charges for premiums paid on a periodic basis, denial or delay of benefits, charging excessive or impermissible fees on products, recommending unsuitable products to customers, our pricing structures and business practices in our mortgage insurance subsidiaries, such as captive reinsurance arrangements with lenders and contract underwriting services, violations of the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act of 1974 or related state anti-inducement laws, and mortgage insurance policy rescissions and curtailments, and breaching fiduciary or other duties to customers, including but not limited to cybersecurity breaches of customer information. We also from time to time have had, and may in the future have, disputes with reinsurance partners relating to the parties’ rights and obligations under reinsurance treaties and/or related administration agreements. In our investment-related operations, we are subject to litigation involving commercial disputes with counterparties. We are also subject to litigation arising out of our general business activities such as our contractual and employment relationships, including claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), post-closing obligations associated with previous dispositions and securities lawsuits. In addition, we are also subject to various regulatory inquiries, such as information requests, subpoenas, books and record examinations and market conduct and financial examinations from state, federal and international regulators and other authorities.

Plaintiffs in class action and other lawsuits against us have sought and/or may seek very large or indeterminate amounts which may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. A substantial legal liability or a significant regulatory action against us could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if we ultimately prevail in the litigation, regulatory action or investigation, we could suffer significant reputational harm, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We record an accrual in our consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. At this time, while it is reasonably possible that an unfavorable outcome in a case may occur, except to the extent discussed below, management has concluded that it is not probable that a loss has been incurred in any of the pending cases, and management is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome in any of the pending cases. Therefore, we have not recorded any amounts in our consolidated financial statements for unfavorable outcomes, if any.

TVPX ARS, INC. v. GLAIC

In September 2018, GLAIC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned TVPX ARS, INC., as Securities Intermediary for Consolidated Wealth Management, LTD. on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company. The plaintiff alleges unlawful and excessive cost of insurance charges were imposed on policyholders. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, alleging that Genworth improperly considered non-mortality factors when calculating cost of insurance rates and failed to decrease cost of insurance charges in light of improved expectations of future mortality, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages, costs and equitable relief. On October 29, 2018, we filed a motion to enjoin the case in the Middle District of Georgia, and a motion to dismiss and motion to stay in the Eastern District of Virginia. We moved to enjoin the prosecution of the Eastern District of Virginia action on the basis that it involves claims released in a prior nationwide class action settlement (the “McBride settlement”) that was approved by the Middle District of Georgia. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on November 13, 2018. On December 6, 2018, we moved the Middle District of Georgia for leave to file our counterclaim, which alleges that the plaintiff breached the covenant not to sue contained in the prior settlement agreement by filing its current action. On March 15, 2019, the Middle District of Georgia granted our motion to enjoin and denied our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. As such, the plaintiff is enjoined from pursuing its class action in the Eastern District of Virginia. On March 29, 2019, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of its appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit from the order granting our motion to enjoin. On March 29, 2019, we filed our notice of cross-appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of our cross-appeal to the Eleventh Circuit from the portion of the order denying our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. On April 8, 2019, the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed the case without prejudice, with leave for the plaintiff to refile an amended complaint only if a final appellate Court decision vacates the injunction and reverses the Middle District of Georgia’s opinion. On May 21, 2019, the plaintiff filed its appeal and memorandum in support in the Eleventh Circuit. We filed our response to the plaintiff’s appeal memorandum on July 3, 2019. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral argument on the plaintiff’s appeal and our cross-appeal on April 21, 2020. On May 26, 2020, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the Middle District of Georgia’s order enjoining the plaintiff’s class action and remanded the case back to the Middle District of Georgia for further factual development as to whether Genworth has altered how it calculates or charges cost of insurance since the McBride settlement. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals did not reach a decision on Genworth’s counterclaim.

On June 30, 2021, we filed in the Middle District of Georgia our renewed motion to enforce the class action settlement and release and renewed our motion for leave to file a counterclaim. The briefing on both motions concluded in October 2021. On March 24, 2022, the Court denied our motions. On April 11, 2022, we filed an appeal of the Court’s denial to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. On June 22, 2022, we filed our opening brief in support of the appeal. The plaintiff filed its respondent’s brief on September 20, 2022, and we filed our reply brief on November 10, 2022. The appeal was orally argued on August 17, 2023, and on January 8, 2025, the Eleventh Circuit entered an order affirming the district court’s order. On January 29, 2025, we moved for rehearing by the panel and by the full court. On March 4, 2025, the Eleventh Circuit denied our motion for rehearing. On March 7, 2025, the plaintiff refiled its complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. On May 9, 2025, we moved to dismiss the refiled complaint for failure to state a cause of action. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on June 24, 2025 and a second amended complaint on July 14, 2025. On July 28, 2025, we moved to dismiss the second amended complaint for failure to state a cause of action. The plaintiff opposed our motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on August 25, 2025, and the court denied our motion to dismiss on November 18, 2025. On February 13, 2026, we moved for summary judgment dismissing the complaint, and the plaintiff moved for class certification. A trial date has been scheduled for late April 2026. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.

Burkhart et al. v. Genworth Financial et al.

In September 2018, Genworth Financial, Genworth Holdings, Genworth North America Corporation, Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) and GLIC were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware captioned Richard F. Burkhart, William E. Kelly, Richard S. Lavery, Thomas R. Pratt, Gerald Green, individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly situated v. Genworth et al. The plaintiffs allege that GLIC paid dividends to its parent and engaged in certain reinsurance transactions causing it to maintain inadequate capital capable of meeting its obligations to GLIC policyholders and agents. The complaint alleges causes of action for intentional fraudulent transfer and constructive fraudulent transfer and seeks injunctive relief. We moved to dismiss this action in December 2018. On January 29, 2019, the plaintiffs exercised their right to amend their complaint. On March 12, 2019, we moved to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaint. On April 26, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a memorandum in opposition to our motion to dismiss, which we replied to on June 14, 2019. On August 7, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a motion seeking to prevent proceeds that GFIH expected to receive from the then planned sale of its shares in Genworth MI Canada Inc. (“Genworth Canada”) from being transferred out of GFIH. On September 11, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a renewed motion seeking the same relief as their August 7, 2019 motion with an exception that allowed GFIH to transfer $450 million of expected proceeds from the sale of Genworth Canada through a dividend to Genworth Holdings to allow the pay-off of a senior secured term loan facility dated March 7, 2018 among Genworth Holdings as the borrower, GFIH as the limited guarantor and the lending parties thereto. Oral arguments on our motion to dismiss and the plaintiffs’ motion occurred on October 21, 2019, and the plaintiffs’ motion was denied. On January 31, 2020, the Court granted in part our motion to dismiss, dismissing claims relating to $395 million in dividends GLIC paid to its parent from 2012 to 2014 (out of the $410 million in total dividends subject to the plaintiffs’ claims). The Court denied the balance of the motion to dismiss leaving a claim relating to $15 million in dividends and unquantified claims relating to the 2016 termination of a reinsurance transaction. On March 27, 2020, we filed our answer to the plaintiffs’ amended complaint.

On May 26, 2021, the plaintiffs filed a second amended and supplemental class action complaint adding additional factual allegations and three new causes of action. On July 26, 2021, we moved to dismiss the three new causes of action and answered the balance of the second amended and supplemental class action complaint. The plaintiffs filed an opposition to our motion to dismiss on September 30, 2021. The Court heard oral arguments on the motion on December 7, 2021 and ordered each party to file supplemental submissions, which were filed on January 28, 2022. On May 10, 2022, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the three new causes of action. On January 27, 2022, the plaintiffs filed a motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin GFIH from transferring any assets to any affiliate, including paying any dividends to Genworth Holdings, and to enjoin Genworth Holdings and Genworth Financial from transferring or distributing any value to Genworth Financial’s shareholders. On June 2, 2022, the plaintiffs withdrew their motion for a preliminary injunction. On January 12, 2024, the plaintiffs moved for class certification. We filed our opposition papers on February 23, 2024. On March 25, 2025, we filed a motion for summary judgment dismissing the second amended complaint, and the plaintiffs filed opposition papers as well as a motion for Rule 56(d) relief on May 14, 2025. On June 18, 2025, we filed reply papers in further support of our motion for summary judgment and moved separately to strike the plaintiffs’ motion. The plaintiffs opposed our motion to strike on July 11, 2025. On January 21, 2026, the court heard oral argument on our summary judgment motion, the plaintiffs’ Rule 56(d) motion and our motion to strike. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.

Trauernicht et al v. Genworth Financial

On August 1, 2022, a putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia bytwo former Genworth employees against Genworth Financial, its Board of Directors and the Fiduciary and Investments Committee of Genworth Financial’s Retirement and Savings Plan (“Savings Plan”). The plaintiffs purport to act on behalf of the Savings Plan and all similarly situated participants and beneficiaries of the Savings Plan. The complaint asserts that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties under ERISA by imprudently offering and inadequately monitoring a suite of BlackRock Target Date Funds as a retirement investment option for Genworth employees. The plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief, monetary damages and attorney’s fees. By stipulation entered September 6, 2022, the complaint was dismissed, without prejudice, against the Board of Directors and the Fiduciary and Investments Committee of Genworth Financial’s Savings Plan. On October 17, 2022, we moved to dismiss the complaint against the sole remaining defendant, Genworth Financial. The plaintiffs filed opposition papers on November 10, 2022, and we filed our reply papers on November 16, 2022. By order dated January 20, 2023, the Court granted the plaintiffs’ motion to serve an amended complaint, rendering our initial motion to dismiss moot. On January 20, 2023, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, and on February 2, 2023, we filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On March 16, 2023, the Court directed the plaintiffs to file a second amended complaint and denied our motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The plaintiffs filed the second amended complaint on April 17, 2023. On May 15, 2023, we answered and moved to dismiss the second amended complaint. On September 13, 2023, the Court granted in part and denied in part our motion to dismiss the second amended complaint.

The plaintiffs moved for class certification on October 16, 2023, and we filed opposition papers on December 4, 2023. Oral argument on the plaintiffs’ class certification motion was heard on February 12, 2024. On February 20, 2024, we moved for summary judgment dismissing the claims, and the plaintiffs filed opposition papers on March 5, 2024. Oral argument was conducted on our summary judgment motion on March 25, 2024. On August 15, 2024, the Court granted the plaintiffs’ motion and certified the case as a class action. On August 29, 2024, the Court denied our motion for summary judgment. We filed a motion for leave to appeal from the trial court’s class certification order, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit granted leave to appeal on September 13, 2024. On March 7, 2025, we filed our opening appellate brief in the Fourth Circuit, and the plaintiffs filed their responding brief on April 7, 2025.

We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.

M/O Arbitration Between Blue Cross Blue Shield Nebraska and GLIC

On December 16, 2022, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska (“BCBSNE”) served an arbitration demand on GLIC in relation to BCBSNE’s stated intent to recapture a block of long-term care insurance policies for which the risk was partly ceded to GLIC. In its arbitration demand, BCBSNE alleged that GLIC breached the governing reinsurance agreement by refusing to agree to transfer assets equal to the fair value of the liabilities being recaptured. BCBSNE asserted it had satisfied all of its obligations under the reinsurance agreement and sought to recapture the ceded block of reinsurance. BCBSNE sought damages equal to the fair value of the recaptured liabilities, plus interest and other damages, including attorneys’ fees and costs. The arbitration proceeding occurred in September 2024, and the arbitration panel issued its final decision on May 19, 2025. Following the arbitration panel’s final decision, we made a $24 million payment to BCBSNE and released $50 million in insurance reserves, at the locked-in discount rate, related to the policies recaptured, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $26 million in the second quarter of 2025.

In Re MOVEit Customer Data Security Breach Litigation

Starting in June 2023, various Genworth entities (including Genworth Financial, GLIC and GLAIC) have been named as defendants in certain putative class action lawsuits in the United States District Courts for the Eastern District of Virginia and the District of Massachusetts. These cases are captioned as follows: Anastasio v. Genworth Financial, Inc. et al; Hauser v. Genworth Life Insurance Company; Smith v. Genworth Financial, Inc.; Behrens v. Genworth Life Insurance Company; Hale et al v. Genworth Financial, Inc.; Burkett, Jr. v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company; Manar v. Genworth Financial, Inc.; Romine et al. v. Progress Software Corporation et al.; Schwarz et al. v. Progress Software Corporation et al.; Casey et al. v. Genworth Life & Annuity Insurance Company; and Bailey v. Genworth Financial, Inc. The actions relate to the data security events involving the MOVEit file transfer system, which PBI Research Services (“PBI”), a third-party vendor, uses in the performance of its services (“MOVEit Cybersecurity Incident”). Our legacy insurance subsidiaries previously used PBI to, among other things, satisfy applicable regulatory obligations to search various databases to identify the deaths of insured persons under life insurance policies, and to identify deaths under long-term care insurance and annuity policies which can impact premium payment obligations and benefit eligibility. The plaintiffs seek to represent various classes and subclasses of Genworth long-term care insurance policyholders and agents whose data was accessed or potentially accessed by the MOVEit Cybersecurity Incident, alleging that Genworth breached its purported duty to safeguard their sensitive data from cybercriminals. The complaints assert claims for, inter alia, negligence, negligence per se, breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and violations of various consumer protection and privacy statutes, and they seek, inter alia, declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory and punitive damages, restitution, attorneys’ fees and costs. On October 4, 2023, the Joint Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued an order consolidating all actions relating to the MOVEit Cybersecurity Incident before a single federal judge in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. All defendants, including the Genworth entities, filed a joint motion to dismiss the complaints on July 23, 2024. Oral argument on this motion occurred on October 9, 2024. On December 12, 2024, as relevant to Genworth, the court denied the motion. On February 4, 2025, several defendants, including the Genworth entities, filed a second motion to dismiss the complaints, and the plaintiffs filed opposition papers on April 7, 2025. Oral argument was conducted on the second motion to dismiss on May 12, 2025. On July 31, 2025, the court granted the second motion to dismiss in part and dismissed most of the causes of action against Genworth, retaining only the claims for common law negligence, breach of implied contract, and a Massachusetts statutory violation. On September 9, 2025, we moved for partial reconsideration of certain aspects of the July 31, 2025 decision, and the plaintiffs opposed that motion on September 23, 2025. On January 9, 2026, the court granted in part our motion for partial reconsideration by dismissing a certain negligence claim under California law and by confirming the dismissal of an Illinois statutory claim. We intend to continue to vigorously defend these actions.

Fox v. GLAIC

In March 2024, GLAIC was served with a putative class action lawsuit venued in the Superior Court of the State of California, Sacramento County, captioned James Fox, individually and on behalf of the class v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Co. The plaintiff, the holder of a lapsed California GLAIC life insurance policy, seeks to represent a class of current and former California GLAIC policyholders and beneficiaries whose policies were allegedly wrongfully terminated. The complaint alleges that GLAIC wrongfully terminated hundreds of California life insurance policies by failing to provide the policyholders with the notices and grace periods mandated by the contract and by the California Insurance Code as interpreted by the California Supreme Court in McHugh v. Protective Life Ins. Co. The complaint asserts causes of action for breach of contract, violation of the California Insurance Code, unfair competition and bad faith, and it seeks, inter alia, declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages, restitution, attorneys’ fees and costs. The action was removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California on April 3, 2024. On May 8, 2024, we answered the complaint. On October 15, 2024, the court granted our motion to stay the action pending final determination of an appeal in a related case. On March 4, 2025, the court lifted the stay, and the plaintiff filed an amended complaint on April 21, 2025. On June 2, 2025, we answered the complaint and moved to strike its class action allegations. The plaintiff filed opposition papers to our motion to strike on June 16, 2025. The plaintiff moved to remand the matter to state court on June 30, 2025, and we opposed that motion on July 22, 2025. On August 19, 2025, the court denied both our motion to strike the class allegations and the plaintiff’s motion to remand the case to state court. The plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from that order on September 18, 2025, but the appeal was dismissed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on October 1, 2025. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.

Kaplan v. GLIC

On January 17, 2025, GLIC, GLICNY and various AARP entities were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia captioned Sharon R. Kaplan and Richard A. Kaplan on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life Insurance Co. et al. The complaint alleges that the Genworth and AARP defendants violated the District of Columbia Consumer Protection Procedures Act by affirmatively misrepresenting and failing to adequately disclose information regarding the pricing structure and likelihood of rate increases for the My Future My Plan 2 series of long-term care insurance policies. The complaint further alleges that the Genworth defendants breached the terms of the relevant insurance contracts by increasing premiums because of the policies’ inflation protection component and by acting unreasonably in violation of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint seeks, among other things, monetary damages and civil penalties. We removed the action to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on April 17, 2025. We moved to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a cause of action on May 15, 2025, and the plaintiff opposed that motion on July 7, 2025. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.

At this time, except to the extent discussed above, we cannot determine or predict the ultimate outcome of any of the pending legal and regulatory matters specifically identified above or the likelihood of potential future legal and regulatory matters against us. It is possible that related investigations and proceedings may be commenced in the future, and we could become subject to additional unrelated investigations and lawsuits. Increased regulatory scrutiny and any resulting investigations or proceedings could result in new legal precedents and industry-wide regulations or practices that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

(b) Commitments and Guarantees

See note 19 for amounts we were committed to fund related to our investments as of December 31, 2025.

As previously disclosed, in connection with pending litigation between AXA and Santander related to the PPI mis-selling losses, Genworth has certain rights to share in any recoveries by AXA to recoup payments it previously made to AXA for the underlying PPI mis-selling losses. Genworth is not a named party in the litigation with Santander, and, therefore, does not ultimately control the litigation. In order to better align the interests of AXA and Genworth in the litigation, in March 2025, Genworth agreed to provide AXA a guarantee for the recovery of certain of AXA’s PPI mis-selling losses not previously reimbursed by Genworth, regardless of the ultimate outcome of the litigation. The guarantee was provided through a stand-by letter of credit (“LC”) issued by a third-party financial institution for the benefit of AXA and a reimbursement agreement between Genworth and the third-party financial institution. Whether AXA could draw upon the LC was subject to the amount of any settlement between AXA and Santander, or certain milestones in the court proceedings. The LC was terminated in November 2025. Prior to the termination, no amounts were recorded in 2025 related to the guarantee.

On July 25, 2025, the High Court issued a liability judgment in favor of AXA in the legal proceedings against Santander. The judgment finds Santander liable for AXA’s losses resulting from Santander’s mis-selling. The judge awarded AXA damages, interest and costs of approximately £680 million ($911 million based on the exchange rates at that point in time). Santander subsequently applied for permission to appeal, and the Court of Appeal granted that request on October 21, 2025. AXA sought permission to cross-appeal certain aspects of the High Court judgment and was granted permission in January 2026. The hearing before the Court of Appeal has been scheduled for July 21 to July 23, 2026. Under prior agreements between Genworth and AXA, Genworth is entitled to share in funds that AXA recovers from third parties related to the mis-selling losses. If the appeal is resolved in favor of AXA, Genworth could be entitled to receive a total recovery of approximately $750 million, depending upon the applicable exchange rate at that time. In November 2025, we received£15 million ($20 million) from AXA related to a portion of the liability judgment not subject to dispute. We recorded this loss recovery to income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the consolidated statement of operations. See note 2 for a discussion of our policy for recognizing loss recoveries.
