AMERICAN NATIONAL GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2025
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Description of the Company
American National Group Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “ANGI”, “we”, “our”, “us”, or the “Company”) is focused on securing the financial futures of individuals and institutions through a range of insurance and retirement services. Our business is presently conducted through our subsidiaries under three operating segments, which we refer to as our Annuities, Property and Casualty (“P&C”), and Life Insurance segments. We conduct our business in 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
On May 2, 2024, the Company's predecessor, American Equity Investment Life Holding Company, an Iowa corporation ("AEL" or "American Equity") merged with and into Arches Merger Sub Inc. ("Merger Sub"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. ("Brookfield Wealth Solutions"), with AEL surviving and becoming an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions (the "Merger"). In connection with the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of AEL's common stock was converted into the right to receive cash and class A limited voting shares of Brookfield Asset Management Ltd. (“BAM”). On May 7, 2024, American National Group, LLC ("American National"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions, merged with and into AEL, with AEL surviving as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions (the "Post-Effective Merger"). Subsequently, AEL discontinued its existence as an Iowa corporation and continued its existence as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware (the "Reincorporation"). In connection with the Reincorporation, AEL changed its name to American National Group Inc. ANGI is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions. In September 2024, Brookfield Wealth Solutions changed its name from Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd. to Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. and changed its trading symbol from “BNRE” to “BNT”. For purposes of these notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”), the “Company” refers to either ANGI or AEL, as required by the context.
As a result of the Post-Effective Merger, the consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the Post-Effective Merger represent the results of American National as the accounting acquirer. For periods subsequent to the Post-Effective Merger, the consolidated financial statements represent the combined results of American National and AEL.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, including all prior periods presented, have been prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis and have been presented in U.S. dollars (“USD”) rounded to the nearest million unless otherwise indicated. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2024 audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent period or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. These financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented in accordance with GAAP.
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Included among the material (or potentially material) reported amounts and disclosures that require use of estimates are: fair value of certain financial assets, derivatives, allowances for credit losses, deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), value of business acquired (“VOBA”), reinsurance funds withheld, goodwill and other intangibles, market risk benefits (“MRB”), future policy benefits (“FPB”), policyholder account balances (“PAB”) including the fair value of embedded derivatives, policy and contract claims, income taxes including the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the potential effects of resolving litigated matters. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainties, which may result in actual amounts differing from reported amounts.
9
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
As a result of the acquisition of AEL and the increase in significance of certain accounts resulting from the consolidation of AEL, certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income (loss) as reported in the statements of operations.
The following tables and explanatory notes present adjustments within the statement of operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 to conform the presentation to that of ANGI’s.

The historical financial statements of American National were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following adjustments have been made to conform the presentation of the historical financial statements of American National to the presentation of ANGI’s financial statements:
(a)Mark-to-market gains (losses) on equity-indexed call options is reclassified from “Net investment income” to “Change in fair value of insurance-related derivatives and embedded derivatives” and the embedded derivatives within Policyholders’ Account Balances are reclassified from “Interest credited to policyholders’ account balances” to “Change in fair value of insurance-related derivatives and embedded derivatives”;
(b)Net realized investment gains (losses), increase in investment credit loss, and net gains (losses) on equity securities have been reclassified to “Investment related gains (losses)”;
(c)Other operating expenses have been bifurcated into “Operating expenses” and “Interest expense”; and
(d)Other reclassifications.
Basis of Consolidation
These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, which are legal entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest either by holding a majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity (“VIE”). All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.
The consolidation assessment depends on the specific facts and circumstances for each entity and requires judgment. Refer to Note 2 of the Company’s December 31, 2024 audited consolidated financial statements for a further description of the Company’s accounting policies regarding consolidation.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
In the current period, the Company did not adopt any Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that was material in presentation or amount.
10
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company continues to assess the impacts on the financial statements of the following ASUs issued but not yet adopted as of March 31, 2025. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or insignificant in presentation or amount.
ASU 2023-09 – On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this update require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, to be applied prospectively with an option for retrospective application, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.
ASU 2024-03 – On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this ASU require public business entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, to be applied on either a retrospective or prospective basis subject to certain exceptions, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial statements. However, as they apply to disclosure requirements, the adoption of this ASU is not anticipated to have a material impact on our profitability, financial position or cash flows.

(1)Unrealized losses have been reduced to reflect the allowance for credit losses of $11 million and $27 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The unrealized losses as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are principally related to the timing of the purchases of certain securities, which carry less yield than those available as of those dates. Approximately 92% and 89% of the unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities shown in the above table for March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, are on securities that are rated investment grade, defined as being the highest two NAIC designations.
The Company expects to recover the amortized cost on all securities except for those securities on which it recognized an allowance for credit loss. In addition, as the Company did not have the intent to sell fixed maturity securities with unrealized losses and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of the amortized cost, which may be maturity, the Company did not write down these investments to fair value through the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
13
Allowance for Credit Losses
Several assumptions and underlying estimates are made in the evaluation of allowance for credit loss. Examples include financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry conditions and trends and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices.

There was no interest income recognized on loans in non-accrual status for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Impaired loans were not significant for any of the periods presented.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company establishes a valuation allowance to provide for the risk of credit losses inherent in its mortgage loan portfolios. The valuation allowance is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated expected credit losses. The valuation allowance is based on amortized cost, which excludes accrued interest receivable. The Company does not measure a credit loss allowance on accrued interest receivable as any uncollectible accrued interest receivable balances are written off to net investment income in a timely manner. The Company charged off $2 million of uncollectible accrued interest receivable on its mortgage loan portfolios for the three months ended March 31, 2025. We did not charge off any uncollectible accrued interest receivable on our mortgage loan portfolios for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Credit Quality Indicators
Mortgage loans are segregated by property-type and quantitative and qualitative allowance factors are applied. Qualitative factors are developed quarterly based on the pooling of assets with similar risk characteristics and historical loss experience adjusted for the expected trend in the current market environment. Credit losses are pooled by property type as it represents the most similar and reliable risk characteristics in our portfolio. The amortized cost of mortgage loans by year of origination by aging category are shown below:

Generally, mortgage loans are secured by first liens on income-producing real estate with a loan-to-value ratio of up to 75%. It is the Company’s policy to not accrue interest on loans that are 90 days delinquent and where amounts are determined to be uncollectible. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 302 mortgage loans and 263 mortgage loans, respectively, were past due over 90 days or in nonaccrual status.
The Company’s commercial and residential mortgage loans may be subject to loan modifications. Loan modifications may be granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty and could include principal forgiveness, interest rate reduction, an other-than-significant delay or a term extension. A loan modification typically does not result in a change in valuation allowance as it is already incorporated into the Company’s allowance methodology. However, if the Company grants a borrower experiencing financial difficulty principal forgiveness, the amount of principal forgiven would be written off, which would reduce the amortized cost of the loan and result in an adjustment to the valuation allowance. The carrying amount of mortgage loans experiencing financial difficulty, for which modifications have been granted, was $29 million and $82 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

Where appropriate, the Company obtains non-published credit ratings from one or more third-party rating agencies, which are determined based on an independent evaluation of the transaction. For other loans without published or private credit ratings, the Company assigns internal risk ratings, based on its investment selection and monitoring process and policies. These internal risk ratings are categorized as “Unrated” above.

8. Variable Interest Entities and Equity Method Investments
Through its investment activities, the Company regularly invests in various entities including limited partnerships (“LPs”) and limited liability companies (“LLCs”) and frequently participates in the design with their sponsors, but in most cases, its involvement is limited to financing. Some of these entities have been determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”). In certain instances, in addition to an economic interest in the entity, the Company holds the power to direct the most significant activities of the entity and is deemed the primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. The assets of consolidated VIEs are restricted and must first be used to settle their liabilities. Creditors or beneficial interest holders of these VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of the Company, as its obligation is limited to the amount of its committed investment. The Company has not provided financial or other support to these consolidated VIEs in the form of liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other commitments to third-parties that may affect the fair value or risk of its variable interest in these VIEs as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
In addition to investment activities, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are deemed VIEs. The Company is the primary beneficiary and consolidates these entities in the same manner as other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest by holding a majority voting interest.

Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
For certain of the Company’s investments in various entities that are determined to be VIEs, the Company is not the primary beneficiary as it does not take an active role in the management of these investments. Such investments are reported in certain investment line items on the statements of financial position, including “Available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, fair value”, “Equity securities, at fair value”, “Mortgage loans on real estate, at amortized cost”, “Investment funds”, “Short-term investments, at estimated fair value” and “Other invested assets”. In some instances, a consolidated VIE involves one or more underlying entities for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the most significant activities of these entities. These unconsolidated VIEs that are part of consolidated VIEs are reported primarily in “Real estate and real estate partnerships” on the statements of financial position. Creditors or beneficial interest holders of the unconsolidated VIEs have no recourse to the general credit of the Company, as its obligation is limited to the amount of its committed investment. The Company has not provided financial or other support to these unconsolidated VIEs in the form of liquidity arrangements, guarantees or other commitments to third-parties that may affect the fair value or risk of its variable interest in these VIEs as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The carrying amount and maximum exposure to loss relating to these unconsolidated VIEs are as follows:

Equity Method Investments
Our investments in investment funds, real estate partnerships, and other partnerships, of which substantially all are LPs or LLCs, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, except for certain investments that are fair valued due to the application of fair value option under ASC 825 or the consolidation of investment company VIE under ASC 946. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s equity method investments totaled $5.4 billion and $5.3 billion, respectively.
The Company generally recognizes its share of earnings in its equity method investments within “Net investment income” using a three-month lag in instances where the investee’s financial information is not sufficiently timely or when the investee’s reporting period differs from the Company’s reporting period.
9. Derivative Instruments
The Company manages risks associated with certain assets and liabilities by using derivative instruments. Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value is derived from underlying interest rates, exchange rates or other financial instruments. The Company does not invest in derivatives for speculative purposes.
Foreign exchange forwards and equity-indexed options are over-the-counter contractual agreements negotiated between counterparties. The Company purchases equity-indexed options as economic hedges against fluctuations in the equity markets to which equity-indexed products are exposed. Equity-indexed contracts include a fixed host universal-life insurance or annuity contract and an equity-indexed embedded derivative.
The notional principal represents the amount to which a rate or price is applied to determine the cash flows to be exchanged periodically and does not represent credit exposure. Maximum credit risk is the estimated cost of replacing derivative instruments which have a positive value, should the counterparty default.
Derivatives, except for embedded derivatives, are included in “Other invested assets” or “Other liabilities”, at fair value in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Embedded derivative liabilities on funds withheld and modified coinsurance (“Modco”) arrangements and embedded derivative liabilities on indexed annuity and variable annuity products are included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position within the “Reinsurance funds withheld” and “Policyholders’ account balances” lines respectively, at fair value.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
The Company has designated and accounted for certain foreign exchange forwards (“foreign currency derivatives”) as fair value hedges to protect a portion of the available-for-sale fixed maturity securities against changes in fair value due to changes in exchange rates. The Company has also designated and accounted for certain interest rate swaps (“interest rate derivatives”) as fair value hedges to convert a portion of PAB from a fixed rate liability to a floating rate liability.
For derivative financial instruments that were designated and qualified as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the portion of the derivative instrument included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness and the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk were recognized in the same line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The unrealized gain or loss attributable to changes in exchange rates on the available-for-sale fixed maturity securities that were designated as part of the hedge were reclassified out of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) into “Investment related gains (losses)” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The remaining change in unrealized gain or loss on the hedged item not associated with the risk being hedged remained as a component of OCI. The gains (losses) on interest rate derivatives designated as hedging instruments for certain PAB are included in “Interest sensitive contract benefits” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following represents the amount of gains (losses) related to the derivatives and hedged items that qualify for fair value hedges:

Derivative Exposure
The Company’s use of derivative instruments exposes it to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties. The Company has a policy of only dealing with counterparties it believes are creditworthy and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the financial loss from defaults. The Company holds collateral in cash and notes secured by U.S. government-backed assets. The non-performance risk is the net counterparty exposure based on fair value of open contracts less fair value of collateral held. The Company maintains master netting agreements with its current active trading partners. A right of offset has been applied to cash collateral that supports credit risk and has been recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as an offset to “Other invested assets” with an associated payable to “Other liabilities” for non-cash and excess collateral. A right of offset has also been applied to derivative assets and liabilities with the same counterparty under the same master netting agreement, and such derivative instruments are presented on a net basis in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
The fair value of our derivatives by counterparty and each counterparty's current credit rating are as follows:

27
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. A fair value hierarchy is used to determine fair value based on a hypothetical transaction as of the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant. The Company has evaluated the types of securities in its investment portfolio to determine an appropriate hierarchy level based upon trading activity and the observability of market inputs. The classification of assets or liabilities within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The input levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities other than quoted prices in Level 1; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models and third-party evaluation, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation
Valuation Techniques for Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value
Available-for-sale Fixed Maturity Securities — The Company utilizes pricing services to estimate fair value measurements. The fair value for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities that are disclosed as Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets that are readily available in an active market. The estimates of fair value for most available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, including municipal bonds, provided by the pricing service are disclosed as Level 2 measurements as the estimates are based on observable market information rather than market quotes. The pricing service utilizes market quotations for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities that have quoted prices in active markets. Since available-for-sale fixed maturity securities generally do not trade on a daily basis, the pricing service prepares estimates of fair value measurements for these securities using its proprietary pricing applications, which include available relevant market information, benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. Additionally, an option adjusted spread model is used to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios.
The pricing service evaluates each asset class based on relevant market information, credit information, perceived market movements and sector news. The market inputs utilized in the pricing evaluation, listed in the approximate order of priority, include: benchmark yields, reported trades, pricing source quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, reference data, and economic events. The extent of the use of each market input depends on asset class and the market conditions. Depending on the security, the priority of the use of inputs may change or some market inputs may not be relevant. For some securities, additional inputs may be necessary.
The Company has reviewed the inputs and methodology used and the techniques applied by the pricing service to produce quotes that represent the fair value of a specific security. The review confirms that the pricing service is utilizing information from observable transactions or a technique that represents a market participant’s assumptions. The Company does not adjust quotes received from the pricing service. The pricing service utilized by the Company has indicated that they will only produce an estimate of fair value if there is objectively verifiable information available.
The Company holds a small amount of private placement debt and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities that have characteristics that make them unsuitable for matrix pricing. For these securities, a quote from an independent pricing source (typically a market maker) is obtained. Due to the disclaimers on the quotes that indicate the price is indicative only, the Company includes these fair value estimates in Level 3.
For securities priced using a quote from an independent pricing source, such as certain available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, the Company uses a market-based fair value analysis to validate the reasonableness of prices received. Price variances above a certain threshold are analyzed further to determine if any pricing issue exists. This analysis is performed quarterly.
Equity Securities — For publicly-traded equity securities, prices are received from a nationally recognized pricing service that are based on observable market transactions, and these securities are classified as Level 1 measurements. For certain preferred stock, current market quotes in active markets are unavailable. In these instances, an estimated fair value is received from the pricing service. The service utilizes similar methodologies to price preferred stocks as it does for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities. If applicable, these estimates would be disclosed as Level 2 or Level 3 measurements, depending on the use of at least one significant unobservable input. The Company tests the accuracy of the information provided by reference to other services annually.
Short-term Investments — Short-term investments include fixed maturity securities with original maturities of over 90 days and less than one year at the date of acquisition, some of which are disclosed as Level 1 measurements as their fair values are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets that are readily available in an active market. Short-term investments also include commercial paper rated A2 or P2 or better by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s, respectively, as well as certain private loans with original maturities of less than one year at the date of acquisition and amounts loaned under reverse repurchase agreements. Commercial paper, short-term private loans and amounts loaned under reverse repurchase agreements are carried at amortized cost which approximates fair value. These investments are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 measurements, depending on the use of at least one significant unobservable input.
28
Real Estate and Real Estate Partnerships — The fair values of residential real estate investments held through consolidation of investment company VIEs are initially recorded based on the cost to purchase the properties and subsequently recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and falls within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the residential real estate properties was determined using broker price opinions (“BPO”). A BPO is an appraisal methodology commonly used in the industry to estimate net proceeds from the sale of a home. The significant inputs into the valuation include market comparable home sales, age and size of the home, location and property conditions.
For certain of the Company’s interest in consolidated VIEs, the Company elected the fair value option in accordance with ASC 825. The fair value of such interest is derived using discounted cash flow methodology and falls within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Certain of the Company’s consolidated VIEs that are fair valued on a recurring basis invest in LLCs that invest in operating entities which hold multi-family real estate properties. The fair value of the LLCs is obtained from a third party and is based on the fair value of the underlying real estate held by the various operating entities. The real estate is initially calculated based on the cost to purchase the properties and subsequently calculated based on a discounted cash flow methodology. Such investments are classified as Level 3 measurements.
Investment Funds — The Company owns certain investments in infrastructure LLCs through a consolidated VIE that is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. We initially recorded the investment at the cost to purchase the investment and subsequently recorded based on a discounted cash flow methodology.
Other Invested Assets – The Company holds interest in an investment company limited partnership, which invests in residual tranche investments, and is a consolidated VIE. We also hold residual tranche investments to which we applied the fair value option in accordance with ASC 825. These investments were initially recorded at cost and are subsequently recorded at fair value using discounted cash flow methodology and fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Separate Account Assets and Liabilities — The separate account assets included on the quantitative disclosures fair value hierarchy table are comprised of short-term investments, equity securities, and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities. Equity securities are classified as Level 1 measurements. Short-term investments and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are classified as Level 2 measurements. These classifications for separate account assets reflect the same fair value level methodologies as listed above as they are derived from the same vendors and follow the same process. The separate account assets also include cash and cash equivalents, investment funds, accrued investment income, and receivables for securities. These are not included in the quantitative disclosures of fair value hierarchy table.
Market Risk Benefits — MRBs are valued using stochastic models that incorporate a spread reflecting our non-performance risk. The key assumptions for calculating the fair value of the MRBs are market assumptions such as equity market returns, interest rate levels, market volatility and correlations and policyholder behavior assumptions such as lapse, mortality, utilization and withdrawal patterns. Risk margins are included in the policyholder behavior assumptions. The assumptions are based on a combination of historical data and actuarial judgment. MRBs are classified as Level 3 fair value measurements as the fair value is based on unobservable inputs. The following significant unobservable inputs are used for measuring the fair value:
•Utilization – The utilization assumption represents the percentage of policyholders who will elect to receive lifetime income benefit payments in a given year. The range and weighted average of this assumption can vary from year to year depending on the characteristics of policies in a given cohort within the rate.
•Option budget – The option budget assumption represents the expected cost of annual call options we will purchase in the future.
•Nonperformance risk – The nonperformance risk assumption impacts the discount rate used in the discounted future cash flow valuation and includes the Company’s own credit risk based on the current market credit spreads for debt-like instruments the Company has issued and are available in the market. Additionally, the nonperformance risk assumption includes the counterparty credit risk used in the fair value measurement of ceded market risk benefits which is determined using the current market credit spreads based on the counterparty credit rating.
•Mortality rates – The mortality rate assumptions are set based on a combination of company and industry experience, adjusted for improvement factors. Mortality rates vary by age and by demographic characteristics such as gender.
•Lapse rates – The lapse rate assumptions represent the expected rate of full surrenders which are set based on product type or feature and whether a policy is subject to surrender charges.
Derivative Assets/Derivative Liabilities —
Equity-index options — Equity index options are valued using industry accepted valuation models and are adjusted for the nonperformance risk of each counterparty net of any collateral held. Inputs include market volatility and risk-free interest rates and are used in income valuation techniques in arriving at a fair value for each option contract. The nonperformance risk for each counterparty is based upon its credit default swap rate. The Company has no performance obligations related to the equity-index options purchased to fund its fixed index annuity and equity-indexed universal life policy liabilities. Certain equity-index options are valued based on vendor sourced prices and are classified as Level 3 measurements due to the use of significant unobservable inputs used by the vendor.
Foreign exchange forwards — Foreign exchange forwards are valued using observable market inputs, including forward currency exchange rates. These are classified as Level 2 measurements.

Policyholders’ Account Balances – Embedded Derivatives —The fair value of the embedded derivative component of the Company’s fixed index annuity and equity-indexed universal life policyholders’ account balances is estimated at each valuation date by (i) projecting policy contract values and minimum guaranteed contract values over the expected lives of the contracts and (ii) discounting the excess of the projected contract value amounts at the applicable risk free interest rates adjusted for the Company’s nonperformance risk related to those liabilities. The following significant unobservable inputs are used for measuring the fair value: (i) option budget; (ii) lapse rates; and (iii) nonperformance risk. For the details of these significant unobservable inputs, refer to significant unobservable inputs for “Market risk benefits”.
Funds Withheld for Reinsurance Liabilities – Embedded Derivatives — The fair value of the embedded derivative is estimated based on the fair value of the assets supporting the funds withheld payable under modified coinsurance and funds withheld coinsurance reinsurance agreements. The fair value of the embedded derivative is classified as Level 3 based on valuation methods used for the assets held supporting the reinsurance agreements.
Separately Managed Accounts — The separately managed account manager uses the mid-point of a range from a third-party to price these securities. Discounted cash flows (yield analysis) and market transactions approach are used in the valuation. They use discount rates which is considered an unobservable input.

Fair Value Information About Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value
Information about fair value estimates for financial instruments not measured at fair value is discussed below:
Mortgage Loans — The fair value of mortgage loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses on a loan-by-loan basis by applying a discount rate to expected cash flows from future installment and balloon payments. The discount rate takes into account general market trends and specific credit risk trends for the individual loan. Factors used to arrive at the discount rate include inputs from spreads based on U.S. Treasury notes and the loan’s credit quality, region, property-type, lien priority, payment type and current status.
Private Loans — The fair value of private loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses on a loan-by-loan basis by applying a discount rate to expected cash flows from future installment and balloon payments. The discount rate takes into account general market trends and specific credit risk trends for the individual loan.
32
Policy Loans — The carrying value of policy loans is the outstanding balance plus any accrued interest. Due to the collateralized nature of policy loans such that they cannot be separated from the policy contracts, the unpredictable timing of repayments and the fact that settlement is at outstanding value, the carrying value of policy loans approximates fair value.
Other Invested Assets — The common stock of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) is carried at cost which approximates fair value. The fair value of the company owned life insurance (“COLI”) is equal to the cash surrender value of the policies.
Long Term Borrowings — Long term borrowings are carried at outstanding principal balance. The carrying value approximates fair value because the carrying value represents the amount owing and payable to the creditor at the reporting date. Fair values for subordinated debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations principally on observable inputs including the Company’s incremental borrowing rates, which reflect its credit rating, for similar types of borrowings with maturities consistent with those remaining for the debt being valued.
Notes Payable — Notes payable are carried at outstanding principal balance. For a majority of the notes, the carrying value of the notes payable approximates fair value because the underlying interest rates approximate market rates at the reporting date.
Policyholder’s Account Balances — The fair values of the policyholder account balances’ not involving significant mortality or morbidity risks are stated at the cost we would incur to extinguish the liability (i.e., the cash surrender value) as these contracts are generally issued without an annuitization date. For period-certain annuity benefit contracts, the fair value is determined by discounting the benefits at the interest rates currently in effect for newly issued immediate annuity contracts. All of the fair values presented within these categories fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as most of the inputs are unobservable market data.
The carrying amount and estimated fair value of financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are shown below. The table below excludes accrued investment income, which is recorded at amortized cost in the statements of financial position, as their carrying amounts approximate the fair values due to their short-term nature.
For financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs during the periods, reconciliations of the beginning and ending balances are shown below:

(1)Balance includes separately managed accounts and certain consolidated variable interest entities.
Transfers into and out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 were primarily the result of changes in observable pricing. The Company’s valuation of financial instruments categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy are based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable or had a decline in market activity that obscured observability. The indicators considered in determining whether a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for a specific asset has occurred include the level of new issuances in the primary market, trading volume in the secondary market, the level of credit spreads over historical levels, applicable bid-ask spreads, and price consensus among market participants and other pricing sources. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models and discounted cash flow methodology based on spread/yield assumptions.

12. Reinsurance
The Company reinsures its business through a diversified group of reinsurers. The Company remains liable to the extent its reinsurers do not meet their obligations under the reinsurance agreements. The Company monitors trends in arbitration and any litigation outcomes with its reinsurers. Collectability of reinsurance balances is evaluated by monitoring ratings and the financial strength of its reinsurers. The effect of reinsurance on the applicable line items on our Consolidated Statements of Operations are as follows:

16. Acquisitions
On May 2, 2024, in conjunction with the Merger, Brookfield Wealth Solutions indirectly acquired all of AEL’s issued and outstanding common stock not already owned for a consideration of approximately $2.5 billion in cash and 28,803,599 shares of class A limited voting shares of BAM (“BAM Shares”).
Accounting for the Merger is not finalized, and there remains some measurement uncertainty on the acquisition valuation, which is pending completion of a comprehensive evaluation of the net assets acquired within the next twelve months, including but not limited to identifiable intangible assets, deferred income tax assets and policyholders’ account balances. The financial statements as of March 31, 2025 reflect management’s current best estimate of the purchase price allocation. Final valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the completion of the purchase price allocation will occur by the second quarter of 2025. As a result, the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, representing goodwill of $662 million as of March 31, 2025, may be adjusted in future periods. Goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes. In conjunction with the Merger and Post-Effective Merger, Brookfield Wealth Solutions agreed to indemnify ANGI for certain liabilities that could arise as a result of merger-related activities, including tax liabilities.
Following the Merger, on May 7, 2024, American National and AEL completed the Post-Effective Merger and subsequent Reincorporation. The Post-Effective Merger has been accounted for as a common control transaction as if the parent, American National, acquired the shares of its subsidiary, AEL, similar to that of a reverse acquisition without a change in basis for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. American National is therefore regarded as the predecessor reporting entity from an accounting perspective even though AEL is the surviving legal entity.
Had the Merger occurred on January 1, 2023, the consolidated unaudited pro forma revenue and net profit would be (i) $2.2 billion and $455 million income, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2024; and (ii) $1.8 billion and $54 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The pro forma amounts have been calculated using the subsidiary’s results and adjusting them for the revised depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to investments, property and equipment and intangible assets had applied from January 1, 2023, together with the consequential tax effects.
Management’s current best estimate of the purchase price allocation reflects the inclusion of updated mortality, base lapse and utilization assumptions related to AEL’s market risk benefits liability as part of its annual assumptions review which took place in the third quarter of 2024. This resulted in a $45 million increase in both the VOBA asset and market risk benefits liability. In addition, discount rate and tax assumptions relating to intangible assets were updated, resulting in a $40 million decrease in intangible assets, $8 million increase to deferred tax asset and a $32 million increase in goodwill.

(1)For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized liability remeasurement impacts of $66 million, which were included in “Policyholder benefits and claims incurred” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amounts include the effect of the Company’s annual assumption review which was conducted during the third quarter of 2024. The notable changes to cash flow assumptions resulted in (i) a decrease in the liability for future policy benefits related to annuity products driven by favorable mortality. The change in mortality resulted in an offsetting increase to the deferred profit liability; (ii) a decrease in the liability for future policy benefits for term life products primarily driven by favorable mortality and favorable updates to policyholder lapse behavior assumptions; and (iii) an increase in the future policy benefits liability for universal life products driven by unfavorable updates in policyholder lapse assumptions and unfavorable mortality.

The estimates for ultimate incurred claims attributable to insured events of prior years decreased by $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and decreased by $18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The favorable development in 2025 was a reflection of lower than anticipated losses arising from commercial auto, commercial ag, business owners and homeowners lines of business. The favorable development in 2024 was a reflection of lower than anticipated losses arising from commercial other, business owners and commercial auto lines of business.
For short-duration health insurance claims, the total of IBNR plus expected development on reported claims included in the liability for unpaid claims as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $7 million and $7 million, respectively.
21. Notes Payable and Long Term Borrowings
As part of the acquisition of American Equity, the Company assumed $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2027 which bear interest at 5.0% per year and will mature on June 15, 2027. Contractual interest is payable semi-annually in arrears each June 15th and December 15th.
On February 15, 2022, the Company entered into a five-year, $300 million unsecured delayed draw term loan credit agreement. On July 6, 2022, we borrowed $300 million under this agreement. Interest was tied to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) adjusted for a credit spread. In May 2024, the Company repaid in full all indebtedness and other obligations outstanding under, and terminated, this credit agreement using proceeds of the term loan issued on May 7, 2024 that is summarized below.
On May 25, 2022, the Company assumed a term loan agreement with a consortium of banks providing for five-year term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion maturing May 23, 2027 (the “Term Loan Agreement”). Interest is tied to SOFR and reset and paid quarterly. On June 13, 2022, the Company repaid $500 million under the Term Loan Agreement, and in May 2024 repaid the remaining $1.0 billion outstanding using proceeds of the term loan issued on May 7, 2024 that is summarized below. The Term Loan Agreement was subsequently terminated.
In June 2022, the Company issued $500 million of 6.144% unsecured Senior Notes maturing June 13, 2032. Interest is payable in arrears on June 13 and December 13 of each year. Such notes were offered under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to repay a portion of the Term Loan Agreement.
46
On May 7, 2024, the Company entered into a new $1.9 billion term loan agreement. The term loan will mature on May 25, 2027. Interest on the amount borrowed under the term loan is tied to SOFR plus a margin and is reset and paid quarterly. On October 2, 2024, the Company repaid $600 million under this agreement using proceeds of the Senior Notes issued on October 2, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, $1.3 billion was borrowed under the agreement.
On October 2, 2024, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.750% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Senior Notes”). The 2029 Senior Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.750% per year and will mature on October 1, 2029. The Company will pay interest on the 2029 Senior Notes semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2025. At the Company’s option, the 2029 Senior Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, prior to their maturity at the applicable redemption price, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date for the 2029 Senior Notes. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under our Term Loan Credit Facility.
The agreements above require the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain minimum net worth covenants. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.
Our wholly-owned subsidiary trust (which is not consolidated) has issued fixed rate and floating rate trust preferred securities and has used the proceeds from these offerings to purchase subordinated debentures from us. We also issued subordinated debentures to the trust in exchange for all of the common securities of the trust. The sole assets of the trust are the subordinated debentures and any interest accrued thereon. The interest payment dates on the subordinated debentures correspond to the distribution dates on the trust preferred securities issued by the trust. The trust preferred securities mature simultaneously with the subordinated debentures. Our obligations under the subordinated debentures and related agreements provide a full and unconditional guarantee of payments due under the trust preferred securities. The Company assumed this debt obligation as part of the acquisition of American Equity.
Following is a summary of subordinated debt obligations to the trusts:

The principal amount of the subordinated debentures issued by us to American Equity Capital Trust II ("Trust II") is $100 million. These debentures were assigned a fair value of $75 million at the date of issue (based upon an effective yield-to-maturity of 6.8%). The difference between the fair value at the date of issue and the principal amount is being accreted over the life of the debentures. The trust preferred securities issued by Trust II were issued to Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, which owns a majority of FBL Financial Group, Inc. ("FBL"). The consideration received by Trust II in connection with the issuance of its trust preferred securities consisted of fixed income securities of equal value which were issued by FBL.

22. Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the effective tax rates on pre-tax income were 21.3% and 20.3% respectively. For both periods, the Company’s effective tax rate was not materially different from the statutory rate of 21%.
Pillar Two and Bermuda Corporate Income Tax Regime
In December 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted a corporate income tax (“CIT”) regime, designed to align with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's ("OECD's") global minimum tax rules. The Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 came into operation in its entirety on January 1, 2025. The regime applies a 15% CIT to Bermuda businesses that are part of MNE groups with annual revenue of €750 million or more, including us. As of March 31, 2025, we had a deferred tax asset of $377 million relating to this regime.
47
The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the global minimum tax requirements by monitoring the legislative changes and future developments in relation to Pillar Two across jurisdictions in which the Company operates and assessing their impact on our operations and financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our evaluation of enacted legislation resulted in no change to our deferred tax asset and therefore no impact to our effective tax rate.
23. Stockholders' Equity
As a result of and following the Merger and the Reincorporation, the Company had 10,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share authorized and outstanding, all of which are held by Brookfield Wealth Solutions Ltd. and its affiliates. See Note 1 - Organization and Description of the Company for additional information.
As part of the acquisition of American Equity, the Company assumed the issuance of 16,000 shares of 5.95% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A ("Series A") with a $1.00 par value per share and a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, for aggregate net proceeds of $389 million. On February 24, 2025, the Company redeemed all of the 16,000 outstanding shares of Series A and the corresponding 16,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/1,000th interest in one share of Series A with a total redemption payment of $408 million. As part of the redemption, the Company recognized a loss of $11 million and paid dividends totaling $8 million.
As part of the acquisition of American Equity, the Company assumed the issuance of 12,000 shares of 6.625% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series B ("Series B") with a $1.00 par value per share and a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, for aggregate net proceeds of $290 million.
On January 10, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 12,000 shares of 7.375% Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series D with a $1.00 par value per share and a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, for aggregate net proceeds of $292 million. The Company used the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full the Series A preferred shares described above.
Dividends on the Series D preferred stock are payable on a non-cumulative basis only when, as and if declared, quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on April 15, 2025. The Series D preferred stock are not subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund, retirement fund, purchase fund or similar provisions. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we accrued for dividends totaling $6 million for Series D preferred stock.
Dividends on the Series B preferred stock are payable on a non-cumulative basis only when, as and if declared, quarterly in arrears on the first day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on December 1, 2020 for Series B. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid dividends totaling $5 million for Series B preferred stock. No dividends were recognized for the three month ended March 31, 2024, as the preferred stock was acquired during the acquisition of American Equity during 2024. The Series B preferred stock are not subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund, retirement fund, purchase fund or similar provisions.

On November 8, 2022 American National and BAMR US Holdings LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Wealth Solutions, entered into a demand deposit agreement. The balance at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $81 million and $272 million, respectively. The deposit is considered a cash and cash equivalent in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
On August 17, 2023 ANTAC, LLC (a subsidiary of the Company) and Brookfield Wealth Solutions entered into a deposit agreement.

26. Segment Reporting
Management organizes the business into three reporting segments:
–Annuities - consists of fixed, fixed index, and variable annuity products as well as PRT contracts. Products are primarily sold through independent agents, brokers, and financial institutions, along with multiple-line and career agents.
–Property and Casualty (“P&C”) - consists of personal, agricultural and targeted commercial coverages and credit-related property insurance. Products are primarily sold through multiple-line and independent agents or managing general agents. There are also small amounts of Health insurance, consisting of Medicare Supplement, stop-loss, other supplemental health products and credit disability insurance. Products are typically distributed through independent agents and managing general underwriters.
–Life Insurance - consists of whole, term, universal, indexed and variable life insurance. Products are primarily sold through career, multiple-line, and independent agents as well as direct marketing channels.
Corporate and other consists of net investment income from investments and certain expenses not allocated to the insurance segments and revenues and related expenses from non-insurance operations.
These segments are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for the purpose of allocating resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The Company’s CODM has been identified as the BWS Chief Executive Officer and the BWS Chief Financial Officer.
The key measure used by the CODM in assessing performance and in making resource allocation decisions is Distributable Operating Earnings (“DOE”). DOE provides the CODM with insights on capital allocation and investment strategies, as well as product mix and pricing of insurance products offered by the Annuities, P&C and Life Insurance segments.
DOE is calculated as net income after applicable taxes excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes related to basis and other changes, and breakage and transaction costs, as well as certain investment and insurance reserve gains and losses, including gains and losses related to asset and liability matching strategies, non-operating adjustments related to changes in cash flow assumptions for future policy benefits and change in market risk benefits, and is inclusive of returns on equity invested in certain variable interest entities and the Company’s share of adjusted earnings from investments in certain associates. DOE allows the CODM to evaluate the Company’s segments on the basis of return on invested capital generated by its operations and allows the Company to evaluate the performance of its segments.

27. Financial Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
As of March 31, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries, in aggregate, had outstanding unfunded commitments to purchase, expand or improve real estate and to fund mortgage loans, private loans and investment funds of $4.3 billion.
In addition, the subsidiaries of the Company had outstanding letters of credit in the amount of $6 million as of March 31, 2025.
The Company’s subsidiaries lease office space, technological equipment and automobiles. The remaining long-term lease commitments as of March 31, 2025 were approximately $25 million and are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Position within “Other liabilities”. As of March 31, 2025, a Company subsidiary had approximately $38 million of future payments, inclusive of office space construction costs, under a long-term operating lease agreement with a third party that has not yet commenced. The lease will commence in 2025 with a minimum lease term of 11 years.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Agreements
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have access to the FHLB’s financial services including advances that provide an attractive funding source for short-term borrowing and for access to other funding agreements. As of March 31, 2025, certain municipal bonds and collateralized mortgage obligations with a fair value of approximately $688 million and commercial mortgage loans of approximately $624 million were on deposit with the FHLB as collateral for borrowing. As of March 31, 2025, the collateral provided borrowing capacity of approximately $1.1 billion. The deposited securities and commercial mortgage loans are included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position within “Available-for-sale fixed maturity securities” and “Mortgage loans on real estate”, respectively.
Litigation
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are defendants in various lawsuits concerning alleged breaches of contracts, various employment matters, allegedly deceptive insurance sales and marketing practices, and miscellaneous other causes of action arising in the ordinary course of operations. Certain lawsuits include claims for compensatory and punitive damages. The Company provides accruals for these items to the extent it deems the losses probable and reasonably estimable. After reviewing these matters with legal counsel, based upon information presently available, management is of the opinion that the ultimate resultant liability, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the statements of financial position, liquidity or results of operations; however, assessing the eventual outcome of litigation necessarily involves forward-looking speculation as to judgments to be made by judges, juries and appellate courts in the future.
52
Such speculation warrants caution, as the frequency of large damage awards, which bear little or no relation to the economic damages incurred by plaintiffs in some jurisdictions, continues to create the potential for an unpredictable judgment in any given lawsuit. These lawsuits are in various stages of development, and future facts and circumstances could result in management changing its conclusions. It is possible that, if the defenses in these lawsuits are not successful, and the judgments are greater than management can anticipate, the resulting liability could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. With respect to the existing litigation, management currently believes that the possibility of a material judgment adverse to the Company is remote. Accruals for losses are established whenever they are probable and reasonably estimable. If no one estimate within the range of possible losses is more probable than any other, an accrual is recorded based on the lowest amount of the range.
28. Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated all events and transactions through May 15, 2025, the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements were issued.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 vs. 2024
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we reported total net premiums of $889 million, compared to net premiums of $1.1 billion for the same period in 2024. The decrease of $255 million is primarily due to lower PRT sales in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024, largely driven by the execution of the Company’s first U.K. reinsurance transaction, reinsuring $1.3 billion of pension liabilities in Q4 2024.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we reported total gross annuity sales of $3.8 billion, compared to gross annuity sales of $1.5 billion in the prior year period. The increase of $2.3 billion is primarily due to the contribution of fixed index annuity deposits generated by American Equity subsequent to the completion of the acquisition coupled with our FABN issuance during the quarter.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 vs. 2024
The results of operations discussed below comprise results for American National for the periods prior to the Post-Effective Merger and the combined results of American National and AEL for periods subsequent to the Post-Effective Merger.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we reported net loss of $(206) million, compared to a net income of $113 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in the expense associated with the change in fair value of insurance-related derivatives and embedded derivatives and an increase in the expense associated with the change in fair value of market risk benefits as a result of equity market and interest rate movements. Additionally, there was an decrease in net premiums due to lower PRT sales and an increase in interest sensitive contract benefits and operating expenses due to the inclusion of American Equity following the acquisition. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in net investment income and other policy revenue due to the inclusion of American Equity and a decrease in policyholder benefits and claims incurred due to improved results within the property casualty line of business and decreased sales activity.
Net premiums and other policy revenue of $1.0 billion decreased by $218 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower PRT sales in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 202 partially offset by an increase in other policy revenue which reflects surrender fee and rider fee income recognized on annuity policies added following the acquisition of American Equity.
Net investment income increased by $835 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in assets under management following the acquisition of American Equity as well as the continued growth in the existing investment portfolio and the rotation into higher yielding investment strategies.
The Company incurred investment related losses of $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $34 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in investment losses of $30 million was primarily due to unrealized losses on equity securities, short-term investments and other invested assets for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Policyholder benefits and claims incurred decreased by $198 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease is primarily due to improved results within the property casualty line of business, decreased sales activity, and the impact of business ceded to RGA beginning in Q2 2024.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, interest sensitive contract benefits increased compared to the same period in 2024 by $357 million which was primarily driven by an increase in the in-force block of annuity business following the acquisition of American Equity.
57
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred sales inducements and value of business acquired increased by $157 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to an increase in the amortization of VOBA due to the increase in the VOBA asset following the acquisition of American Equity as well as the continued growth of the annuity business which increases the deferred acquisition cost asset.
Change in fair value of insurance-related derivatives and embedded derivatives increased by $218 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to the impact of interest rates and equity market performance on the fair value of the embedded derivatives and equity-indexed options.
The increase in the change in fair value of market risk benefit of $342 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was primarily due to the impact of interest rates and equity markets on the valuation of these liabilities. Additionally, the market risk benefit liabilities increased as a result of the acquisition of American Equity leading to increases in the change in the fair value of these liabilities.
Operating expenses increased by $172 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, primarily driven by the contribution of expenses from American Equity subsequent to the acquisition as well as additional costs incurred to support the continued growth of our business.
Interest expense on borrowings increased by $22 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily as a result of increased borrowings with the new term loan entered into in May 2024 as well as the acquisition of American Equity which included legacy senior notes and subordinated debt.

We measure operating performance primarily using Distributable Operating Earnings (“DOE”) which is a Non-GAAP metric which measures our ability to acquire net insurance assets at a positive margin, and invest these assets at a return that is greater than the cost of policyholder liabilities. See “Performance Measures Used by Management” for the reconciliation of GAAP consolidated net income to DOE.
The following table presents DOE of each of our reporting segments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 vs. 2024
Annuities – DOE increased by $302 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to earnings contributed from AEL, coupled with new business wins and higher spread earnings.
Life Insurance – DOE decreased by $25 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was driven by higher policyholder benefits, lower investment income due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents held during the period, and the impact of the RGA reinsurance treaty executed during the third quarter of 2024.
Property and Casualty – DOE increased by $15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was driven by improvements in loss experience arising from underwriting actions implemented since the prior year period.

March 31, 2025 vs. December 31, 2024
Total assets increased by $2.2 billion during the period to $123.4 billion. The increase primarily driven by net annuity inflows coupled with favorable unrealized fair value movements on our fixed maturity investments from a decrease in interest rates during the quarter.
Total investments increased by $5.9 billion from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. The increase is primarily driven by the redeployment of cash and cash equivalents into short-term investments, coupled with annuity sales during the quarter.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.8 billion from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. The decrease is primarily driven by the deployment of cash and cash equivalents into short-term investments.
59
Deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducements (“DSI”) and value of business acquired (“VOBA”) are capitalized costs directly related to writing new policyholder contracts and include the VOBA intangible assets. During the year, the balance increased by $152 million primarily driven by deferrals associated with writing new business during the quarter.
Ceded unearned premiums represent a portion of unearned premiums ceded to reinsurers. The decrease of $3 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025 is primarily driven by the recognition of earned premiums subject to reinsurance.
Deferred tax assets decreased by $12 million from December 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. The decrease is primarily due to changes in unrealized gains or losses in our investments, reserves held for policyholder benefits offset by an increase in our net operating loss carryforwards.
Reinsurance recoverables and deposit assets are estimated amounts due to the Company from reinsurers and include reinsurance receivables and recoverables from reinsurers and deposit assets associated with reinsurance agreements. The amount decreased by $112 million in the year due to a decrease in reinsurance recoverable due to an increase in benefits and surrenders ceded for existing American Equity reinsurance agreements as flow business is not being ceded to external reinsurers.
Intangible assets increased by $24 million during the year, primarily due to capitalization of costs associated with software and other intangible assets.
Other assets increased by $113 million during the year to $2.9 billion. The balance includes current tax asset, market risk benefit asset, prepaid pension assets, as well as other miscellaneous receivables, and is attributable to an increase in the market risk benefit asset due movements within the equity market and interests.
Separate account assets and liabilities both decreased by $90 million during 2025, primarily due to policyholder benefits and withdrawals during the quarter.
Future policy benefits and policyholders’ account balances increased by $2.0 billion during 2025 primarily driven by annuity sales during the period as well as the the impact of changes in interest rates and equity markets on the valuation of the liabilities.
Market risk benefits increased by $411 million during 2025 primarily due to the impact of changes in interest rates and equity markets on the valuation market risk benefits.
Funds withheld for reinsurance liabilities decreased by $124 million during 2025 as a result of decrements on the existing ceded liabilities and the corresponding funds withheld payable as flow business is not being ceded to external reinsurers.
Other liabilities increased by $25 million during 2025. The balance includes the reinsured market risk benefits liability, accrued interest on debt and other miscellaneous payables. The increase during 2025 is primarily due to the change in deferred and current tax liabilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources
We strive to maintain sufficient financial liquidity at all times so that we are able to participate in attractive opportunities as they arise, better withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances within our operating subsidiaries and maintain payments to policyholders. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from our operations and access to the Company’s third-party credit facilities. We proactively manage our liquidity position to meet liquidity needs and continue to develop relationships with lenders who provide borrowing capacity at competitive rates, while looking to minimize adverse impacts on investment returns. We look to structure the ownership of our assets to enhance our ability to monetize them to provide additional liquidity, if needed. Our liquidity for the periods noted below consisted of the following:

Today, we have significant liquidity within our insurance portfolios, giving us flexibility to secure attractive investment opportunities. In addition to a portfolio of highly liquid financial assets, our operating companies have additional access to liquidity from sources such as the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and access to a sub-allocation under the Brookfield Wealth Solutions revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had no drawings and a total of $1.1 billion undrawn commitment available related to this program, and access to $300 million of capacity under the revolving credit facility.
60
Liquidity within our insurance subsidiaries may be restricted from time to time due to regulatory constraints. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s total liquidity was $41.2 billion, which included $342 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents held outside of the regulated insurance companies.

Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we generated $671 million of cash from operating activities compared to $262 million during 2024, primarily due to higher investment income from the growth in the investment portfolio, coupled with the addition of American Equity’s investments.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash outflows arose as we deployed cash and cash equivalents held as of December 31, 2024 to short-term investments and continued to rotate our investment portfolio into higher yielding investment strategies. This resulted in net deployment of $5.7 billion of cash from investing activities, compared to net deployment of $1.5 billion in the prior year.
Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a net cash inflow of $1.3 billion from our financing activities, compared to $328 million recorded in 2024. The proceeds in the current year period were mainly as a result of $1.2 billion net payments received on policyholders’ account deposits partially offset by withdrawals on such accounts.
Financial Instruments
To the extent that we believe it is economically prudent to do so, our strategy is to hedge a portion of our equity investments and/or cash flows exposed to foreign currencies by the Company. The following key principles form the basis of our foreign currency hedging strategy:
•We leverage any natural hedges that may exist within our operations;
•We utilize local currency debt financing to the extent possible; and
•We may utilize derivative contracts to the extent that natural hedges are insufficient.
Future Capital Obligations and Requirements
As of March 31, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries, in aggregate, had total unfunded investment commitments of $4.3 billion. The funded commitments are primarily recognized as mortgage loans, private loans, investment funds, investment real estate and other invested assets. For additional information, see Note 27 - Financial Commitments and Contingencies of the financial statements.

Capital Management
Capital management is the on-going process of determining and maintaining the quantity and quality of capital appropriate to take advantage of the Company’s growth opportunities, to support the risks associated with the business and to optimize shareholder returns while fully complying with the regulatory capital requirements.
The Company and its subsidiaries take an integrated approach to risk management that involves the Company’s risk appetite and capital requirements. The operating capital levels are determined by the Company’s risk appetite and Own Risk and Solvency Assessment (“ORSA”). Furthermore, additional stress techniques are used to evaluate the Company’s capital adequacy under sustained adverse scenarios.
American National and AEL are required to follow Risk Based Capital (“RBC”) requirements based on guidelines of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”). RBC is a method of measuring the level of capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations, in light of its size and risk profile. It provides a means of assessing capital adequacy, where the degree of risk taken by the insurer is the primary determinant.
The Company has determined that it is in compliance with all capital requirements as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Performance Measures Used by Management
To measure performance, we focus on net income and total assets, as well as certain Non-GAAP measures, including DOE and Total Liquidity, which we believe are useful to investors to provide additional insights into assets within the business available for redeployment. Refer to the “Results of Operations”, “Financial Condition,” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections of this MD&A for further discussion on our performance and Non-GAAP measures for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Non-GAAP Measures
We regularly monitor certain Non-GAAP measures that are used to evaluate our performance and analyze underlying business performance and trends. We use these measures to establish budgets and operational goals, manage our business and evaluate our performance. We also believe that these measures help investors compare our operating performance with our results in prior years. These Non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information to the financial measures presented in this MD&A that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. These Non-GAAP measures are not comparable to GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly described Non-GAAP measures reported by other companies, including those within our industry.
Consequently, our Non-GAAP measures should not be evaluated in isolation, but rather, should be considered together with the most directly comparable GAAP measure in our consolidated financial statements for the years presented. The Non-GAAP financial measures we present in this MD&A should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Distributable Operating Earnings
We use DOE to assess operating results and the performance of our businesses. We define DOE as net income after applicable taxes, excluding the impact of depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes related to basis and other changes, and breakage and transaction costs, as well as certain investment and insurance reserve gains and losses, including gains and losses related to asset and liability matching strategies, non-operating adjustments related to changes in cash flow assumptions for future policy benefits and change in market risk benefits, and is inclusive of returns on equity invested in certain variable interest entities and our share of adjusted earnings from our investments in certain associates.
DOE is a measure of operating performance that is not calculated in accordance with, and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. DOE is, therefore, unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
62
We believe our presentation of DOE is useful to investors because it supplements investors’ understanding of our operating performance by providing information regarding our ongoing performance that excludes items we believe do not directly affect our core operations. Our presentation of DOE also provides investors enhanced comparability of our ongoing performance across years.
Total Liquidity
Total Liquidity is a measure of our liquidity position and includes cash and cash equivalents, undrawn revolving credit facilities and liquid financial assets held by our regulated insurance entities.
The following table contains further details regarding our use of our Non-GAAP measures, as well as a reconciliation of GAAP consolidated net income to DOE:

(1)“Mark-to-market losses (gains) on investments, including reinsurance funds withheld” primarily represent mark-to-market gains or losses on our investments and reinsurance funds withheld. Mark-to-market gains or losses on our invested assets are presented as “Investment related gains (losses)” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 10 - Net Investment Income and Investment Related Gains (Losses) in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional details. Mark-to-market gains or losses on reinsurance funds withheld are included in “Net investment results from reinsurance funds withheld” and represent the change in fair value of the embedded derivative during the period. See Note 9 - Derivative Instruments in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional details.
(2)“Mark-to-market losses (gains) on insurance contracts and other net assets” principally represents the mark-to-market effect on insurance-related liabilities, net of reinsurance, due to changes in market risks (e.g., interest rates, equity markets and equity index volatility). These mark-to-market effects are primarily included in “Interest sensitive contract benefits”, “Change in fair value of insurance-related derivatives and embedded derivatives” and “Change in fair value of market risk benefits” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See the following notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information: (i) Note 9 - Derivative Instruments; (ii) Note 18 - Policyholders' Account Balances; and (iii) Note 19 - Market Risk Benefits.
(3)Included in “Mark-to-market losses (gains) on insurance contracts and other net assets” are “returns on equity invested in certain variable interest entities” and “our share of adjusted earnings from our investments in certain associates” as stated in the definition of DOE. “Returns on equity invested in certain variable interest entities” primarily represent equity-accounted income from our investments in real estate partnerships and investment funds and are included in “Net investment income” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, which is incorporated by reference in this Item 2.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk
Our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position within our financial statements include substantial amounts of assets and liabilities whose fair values are subject to market risks. Our significant market risks are primarily associated with interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk. The fair values of our investment portfolios remain subject to considerable volatility. The following sections address the significant market risks associated with our business activities.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
The Company’s obligations under its insurance contracts are predominantly denominated in U.S. dollars, but a portion of the assets supporting these liabilities are denominated in non-U.S. dollars. We manage foreign exchange risk primarily using foreign exchange forwards and cross currency swaps. Our investment policy sets out the foreign currency exposure limits and types of derivatives permitted for hedging
63
purposes. Our net assets are subject to financial statement translation into U.S. dollars. All of our financial statement translation-related impact from changes in foreign currency rates is recorded in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions of the Company’s invested assets are reported in “Investment related gains (losses)” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The impact on net income resulting from a hypothetical 10% decrease in foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar, net of the impact of foreign exchange hedging strategies, would not be expected to be material.
Interest Rate Risk
Substantial and sustained increases or decreases in interest rates may cause certain market dislocations that could negatively impact our financial performance.
We manage interest rate risk through our asset liability management, which we refer to as ALM, the framework whereby the effective and key rate durations of the investment portfolio are closely matched to those of the insurance reserves. Within the context of the ALM framework, we use derivatives including interest rate swaps, options and futures to reduce market risk. For the annuities business, where the timing and amount of the benefit payment obligations can be readily determined, the matching of asset and liability cash flows is effectively controlled through this comprehensive duration management process.
Other Price Risk
Other price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity prices or other market prices such as commodity prices and credit spreads.
The Company’s exposure to the equity markets is managed by sector and individual security, and the Company mitigates the equity risk by diversification of the investment portfolio.
The Company also has equity risk associated with the equity-indexed life and annuity products the Company issues and assumes. The Company has entered into derivative transactions, primarily over-the-counter equity call options, to hedge the exposure to equity-index changes.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss from amounts owed by counterparties and arises any time funds are extended, committed, owed or invested through actual or implied contractual arrangements including reinsurance. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk through its fixed income investments, which include debt securities and private loans.
We manage exposure to credit risk by establishing concentration limits by counterparty, credit rating and asset class. To further minimize credit risk, the financial condition of the counterparties is monitored on a regular basis. These requirements are outlined in our investment policy.
Insurance Risk
The Company makes assumptions and estimates when assessing insurance and reinsurance risks, and significant deviations, particularly with regards to mortality, morbidity, longevity and policyholder behavior, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows. All transaction terms are likely to be determined by qualitative and quantitative factors, including our estimates.
We manage insurance risk through choosing whether to purchase reinsurance for certain amounts of risk underwritten in our Annuities, P&C and Life Insurance segments.
Legal Risk
In the future, we may be parties in actions that routinely arise out of the normal course of business, including legal actions seeking to establish liability directly through insurance contracts. Plaintiffs occasionally seek punitive or exemplary damages. We do not believe that such normal and routine litigation will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. We are also involved from time to time in other kinds of legal actions, some of which assert or may assert claims or seek to impose fines and penalties. We believe that any liability that may arise as a result of other pending legal actions will not have a material effect on our financial statements.
Operational Risk
Operational risk is the potential for loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems, or from external events. The Company’s internal control processes are supported by the maintenance of a risk register and independent internal audit review. The risk of fraud is managed through a number of processes including background checks on staff on hire, annual code of conduct confirmations, anti-bribery training and segregation of duties.
We have material outsourcing arrangements in respect of pension administration and other functions. These arrangements are subject to agreements with formal service levels, operate within agreed authority limits and are subject to regular review by senior management. Material outsourcing arrangements are approved and monitored by the Board of Directors.
64
Disaster recovery and business continuity plans have also been established to manage the Company’s ability to operate under adverse conditions.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
