Guidance and outlook

Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 6, 2026

• In addition, the Company’s annuity reinsurance subsidiary, Assured Life Re, is rated BBB (Outlook Positive) (1/28/26) by Fitch Ratings, Inc.
• In addition, consumer price inflation in the U.K. affects the Company’s reported net par outstanding for certain U.K. exposures with $24.0 billion of net par outstanding as of September 30, 2026, and also affects projected future installment premiums on the portion of such exposure that pays at least a portion of the premium on an installment basis over the term of the exposure.

• The timing, form and amount of any future share repurchases will be determined at the Company’s discretion and will depend on various factors, including alternative uses for capital, the Company’s regulatory capital position, rating agency capital considerations, availability of cash at the parent company, market conditions and legal and regulatory requirements.
• The Company expects these initiatives to reduce the capital required for the ceded exposures under the rating agency models, and thereby increase its excess capital under those models.
• Listed below are the accounting estimates that the Company believes are most dependent on the application of judgment and assumptions.
