◦There were no assumptions updated for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Reworded paragraphs (52)

Previous wording

Market conditions can change rapidly with significant positive or negative impacts on our results. Volatility can pressure sales and reduce demand as consumers hesitate to make financial decisions. We anticipate various macroeconomic factors will continue to drive uncertainty and instability, which could have a significant impact on the Company during fiscal year 2025. These factors include, among others, consumer spending, business investment, government spending, the volatility and strength of the capital markets, investor and consumer confidence, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, inflation levels, changes in trade policy, tariffs and trade sanctions on goods, trade wars, United States-China relations and supply chain disruptions.

Previous wording

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our reserves, net of reinsurance, and weighted average crediting rate on our fixed rate annuities were $6.7 billion and 4.57% and $6.4 billion and 4.42%, respectively. Some of our products, most notably our fixed rate annuities, include guaranteed minimum crediting rates. We are required to pay the guaranteed minimum crediting rates even if earnings on our investment portfolio decline, which would negatively impact earnings. In addition, we expect more policyholders to hold policies with comparatively high guaranteed rates for a longer period in a low interest rate environment. Conversely, a rise in average yield on our investment portfolio would increase earnings if the average interest rate we pay on our products does not rise correspondingly. Similarly, we expect that policyholders would be less likely to hold policies with existing guarantees as interest rates rise and the relative value of other new business offerings are increased, which would negatively impact our earnings and cash flows.

Previous wording

We believe that the aging of the U.S. population will increase the demand for our indexed annuity and indexed universal life (“IUL”) products. As the “baby boomer” generation prepares for retirement, we believe that demand for retirement savings, growth, and income products will grow. We serve a growing retirement population, with more than 10,000 Americans turning 65 every day and a projected 30% increase in people age 65 and older over the next 25 years. The impact of this growth may be offset to some extent by asset outflows as an increasing percentage of the population begins withdrawing assets to convert their savings into income.

Current wording

We believe that the aging of the U.S. population will continue to increase demand for retirement savings, growth, and income solutions, including demand for our indexed annuity and indexed universal life (“IUL”) products.

The impact of this growth may be offset to some extent by asset outflows as an increasing percentage of the population begins withdrawing assets to convert their savings into income.
