REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholder and the Board of Directors of American National Group, LLC

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of American National Group, LLC and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 (successor) and 2022 (successor), and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023 (successor), for the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022 (successor), the period from January 1, 2022 through May 24, 2022 (predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2021 (predecessor), the related notes to the consolidated financial statements, and Schedules I, II, III, and IV (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 (successor) and 2022 (successor), and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023 (successor), for the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022 (successor), the period from January 1, 2022 through May 24, 2022 (predecessor), and for the year ended December 31, 2021 (predecessor), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements give effect to the May 25, 2022 acquisition of 100% of the equity of the Company by Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd., which was accounted for as a business combination. As a result, the financial statements present both predecessor and successor periods as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of measurement and presentation and disclosure of long-duration insurance contracts effective January 1, 2023, using the full retrospective approach applied as of the transition date of May 25, 2022, due to the adoption of ASU 2018-12, Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.

Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Policy and Contract Claims — Refer to Notes 2 and 11 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company establishes a liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses for its property and casualty insurance products to estimate the costs of paying claims incurred but not reported and claims that have been reported but not settled. The liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses is included within Policy and Contract Claims in the consolidated statements of financial position. The liability for unpaid claims and claims adjustment expenses is estimated based upon the Company’s historical experience and actuarial assumptions that consider the effects of current developments, anticipated trends and risk management programs.

Given the subjectivity of estimating claims incurred but not reported and claims that have been reported but not settled, particularly those with payout requirements over a longer period of time such as auto liability, non-auto liability and commercial multi-peril, the related audit effort in evaluating the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including involvement of our actuarial specialists.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses included the following:

We tested the effectiveness of controls related to the property and casualty liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses, including management’s controls over the development, selection, and implementation of the assumptions used in the actuarial estimates.

·	We evaluated the methods and assumptions used by the Company to estimate liabilities for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses by performing the following:

We tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data, on a sample basis, used to determine the assumptions for loss development patterns, including historical claims.

With the assistance of our actuarial specialists, we performed a retrospective review, including comparing prior year estimates of expected incurred losses to actual experience during the current year to identify potential bias in the determination of the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses.

With the assistance of our actuarial specialists, we developed independent estimates for the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses, particularly those with payout requirements over a longer period of time, utilizing loss data and industry claim development factors, and compared our estimates to management’s estimates and assessed the consistency of management’s approach.

Policyholders’ Account Balances – Valuation of embedded derivative liability— Refer to Notes 7, 9 and 19 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company establishes liabilities for equity-indexed contracts which include a fixed host universal life insurance or deferred annuity contract and an equity-indexed embedded derivative. The embedded derivative liability that is required to be bifurcated from a host reserve and separately accounted for is included within Policyholders’ Account Balances in the consolidated statements of financial position. The guaranteed minimum benefit features in the equity-indexed universal life insurance and equity-indexed deferred annuity contracts utilize an option adjusted spread model to estimate fair value, taking into account assumptions such as equity volatility, forward/price dividend assumptions, interest rate, and lapse rates.

Given the sensitivity of the embedded derivative value to changes in these assumptions, the related audit effort in evaluating management’s selection of the significant assumptions related to equity volatility and lapse rates required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including involvement of our actuarial and fair value specialists.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the volatility and policyholder behavior assumptions selected by management for the valuation of the embedded derivative liability included the following:

We tested the effectiveness of controls related to the valuation of embedded derivative liabilities, including management’s controls over the development, selection, and implementation of the significant assumptions used in the estimate.

We tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the determination of the significant assumptions.

We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s significant assumptions by comparing those selected by management to those independently derived by our fair value and actuarial specialists, drawing upon standard actuarial and industry practice.

With the assistance of our actuarial specialists, we evaluated the appropriateness of the significant assumptions, evaluated the consistency of the selected assumptions used in the Company’s valuation model, and tested the mathematical accuracy of the valuation model.

Note 1 – Nature of Operations

American National Group, LLC (“ANAT”, “American National”, or the “Company”), through its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively “American National”) offers a broad portfolio of insurance products, including individual and group life insurance, annuities, pension risk transfer, and property and casualty insurance. Business is conducted in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.

On August 6, 2021, ANAT entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd., formerly known as Brookfield Asset Management Reinsurance Partners Ltd., an exempted company limited by shares existing under the laws of Bermuda, and Freestone Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Reinsurance (“Merger Sub”). On May 25, 2022 (the “Closing Date"”or “Merger Date”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving entity, which became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookfield Reinsurance. The Merger was unanimously approved by the Company’s board of directors. The Company received the requisite stockholder approval required under Delaware law for the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Effective September 30, 2022, the Company converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. As a result, the successor period consists of the year ended December 31, 2023 and the comparative period from May 25, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The predecessor periods consist of January 1, 2022 through May 24, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.

In June 2023, a subsidiary of ANAT entered into an agreement with Core Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc. to sell its managing general underwriter (“MGU”) stop-loss business. The business was acquired for cash through the acquisition of 100% of the stock of Standard Life and Accident Insurance Company (“SLAICO”) and certain reinsurance transactions. The life, annuity and non-MGU stop-loss health business in SLAICO was reinsured back to the Company prior to closing. The transaction was completed on December 1, 2023, and the Company recognized a gain of approximately $36 million upon closing.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and are reported in U.S. currency. American National consolidates entities that are wholly-owned and those in which American National owns less than 100% but controls the voting rights, as well as variable interest entities in which American National is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany balances and transactions with consolidated entities have been eliminated. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates, which include real estate partnerships and investment funds, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

Business Combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of a business acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values at the date of exchange of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. The interest of non-controlling shareholders in the acquiree, if applicable, is initially measured at the non-controlling shareholders’ proportion of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognized.

To the extent the fair value of consideration paid exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets, the excess is recorded as goodwill. To the extent the fair value of consideration paid is less than the fair value of net identifiable tangible and intangible assets, the excess is recognized in net income.

Based on the criteria outlined in ASC 805, Business Combinations the Company was deemed the accounting acquiree in the Merger. As a result of the completed Merger, for accounting purposes, our financial statements and notes are presented as "Predecessor" for historical periods prior to the Closing Date and "Successor" for the periods after the Closing Date. In accordance with accounting for business combinations, assets and liabilities were adjusted to their fair values as of the Closing Date ("Purchase GAAP Accounting" or "PGAAP"). Additionally, we have elected to apply push-down accounting to reflect the Company's assets and liabilities at fair value. To differentiate between periods, our financial statements and notes columns are titled "Predecessor" and "Successor". This division has been placed to recognize Purchase GAAP Accounting adjustments made and the resulting effect on comparability between the two periods.

Accounting for the business combination is finalized. Final valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the completion of the purchase price allocation occurred before the end of the measurement period.

If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022, consolidated unaudited pro forma revenue and profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 would have been $3.9 billion and $487 million, respectively. These amounts have been calculated using the Company'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, 2022, together with the consequential tax effects.

Basis of Presentation

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported consolidated financial statement balances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments

Investment securities are comprised of bonds classified as available-for-sale that are carried at fair value. Private loans are also presented in fixed maturities and are stated at unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any unamortized discount and allowances. In addition, equity investments, other than those accounted for under the equity method or those that result in consolidation of the investee, are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.

Mortgage loans on real estate are stated at unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any unamortized discount, deferred expenses, and allowances. Accretion of discounts is recorded using the effective yield method. Interest income, prepayment fees, and accretion of discounts and origination fees are reported in “Net investment income” in the consolidated statements of operations. Interest income earned is accrued on the principal amount of the loan based on contractual interest rate. However, interest ceases to accrue for loans on which interest is more than 90 days past due, when the collection of interest is not probable, or when a loan is in foreclosure. Income on past due loans is reported on a cash basis. When a loan becomes current, it is placed back into accrual status. Cash receipts on impaired loans are recorded as a reduction of principal, interest income, expense reimbursement, or other manner in accordance with the loan agreement. In the consolidated statements of operations, gains and losses from the sale of loans are reported in “Net realized investment gains,” and changes in allowances are reported in "(Increase) decrease in investment credit loss."

Mortgage loans are presented net of the Company's recorded allowance for expected credit loss, which represents the portion of amortized cost basis on mortgage loans that the Company does not expect to collect. In determining the Company’s allowance for credit losses, management: (i) pools and evaluates mortgage loans with similar risk characteristics, (ii) considers expected lifetime credit losses adjusted for prepayments and extensions, and (iii) considers past events, current economic conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. The allowance is calculated quarterly for each property type based on inputs unique to each loan property type.

On an ongoing basis, mortgage loans with dissimilar risk characteristics (i.e., loans with significant declines in credit quality), collateral dependent mortgage loans (i.e., when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, including when foreclosure is reasonably possible or probable) may be evaluated individually for credit loss. The allowance for credit losses for loans evaluated individually is established using the same methodologies for the overall commercial portfolio segment except for collateral dependent loans. The allowance for a collateral dependent loan is established as the excess of amortized cost over the estimated fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, less selling cost when foreclosure is probable. Accordingly, the change in the estimated fair value of collateral dependent loans is recorded as a change in the allowance for credit losses which is recorded on a quarterly basis as a charge or credit to earnings.

Policy loans are carried at 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.

Real estate and real estate partnerships are comprised of directly owned properties, and interests in both real estate joint ventures and real estate funds which invest in diversified property-types and geographies.

Real estate joint ventures and other limited partnership interests in which the Company has more than a minor interest or influence over the investee’s operations, but it does not have a controlling interest and is not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method. These investments are reported as "Real estate and real estate partnerships” in the consolidated statements of financial position. For certain joint ventures, American National records its share of earnings using a lag methodology of one to three months when timely financial information is not available, and the contractual right does not exist to receive such financial information. In addition to the investees’ impairment analysis of their underlying investments, American National routinely evaluates its investments in those investees for impairments. American National considers financial and other information provided by the investee, other known information, and inherent risks in the underlying investments, as well as future capital commitments, in determining whether impairment has occurred.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

When an impairment is deemed to have occurred at the joint venture level, American National recognizes its share as an adjustment to “Net investment income” to record the investment at its fair value. When an impairment results from American National’s separate analysis, an adjustment is made through “Net realized investment gains (losses)” to record the investment at its fair value.

Investment real estate including related improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset (typically 15 to 50 years). Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease. American National classifies a property as held-for-sale if it commits to a plan to sell a property within one year and actively markets the property in its current condition for a price that is reasonable in comparison to its estimated fair value. Real estate held-for-sale is stated at the lower of depreciated cost or estimated fair value less expected disposition costs and is not depreciated while it is classified as held-for-sale. American National periodically reviews its investment real estate for impairment and tests properties for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable and the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value. Properties whose carrying values are greater than their undiscounted cash flows are written down to their estimated fair value, with the impairment loss included as an adjustment to “Net realized investment gain (loss)” in the consolidated statements of operations. Impairment losses are based upon the estimated fair value of real estate, which is generally computed using the present value of expected future cash flows from the real estate discounted at a rate commensurate with the underlying risks as well as other appraisal methods. Real estate acquired upon foreclosure is recorded at the lower of its cost or its estimated fair value at the date of foreclosure.

Investment funds are primarily comprised of senior secured and second lien private loans that are secured by assets, revenues and credit/balance sheet lending. We recognize our share of the fund’s earnings in net investment income on a one-quarter lag under the equity method of accounting. Cash distributions are received from the earnings and from liquidation of underlying investments. All investment funds are reevaluated quarterly by the fund manager and are audited annually by an independent audit firm.

Short-term investments include highly liquid securities and other investments with remaining maturities of one year or less, but greater than three months, at the time of purchase. Securities included within short-term investments are stated at estimated fair value, while other investments included within short-term investments are stated at amortized cost less allowances, which approximates estimated fair value.

Other invested assets comprised primarily of equity-indexed options are carried at fair value and may be collateralized by counterparties; such collateral is restricted to the Company’s use. Federal Home Loan Bank stock is also included in other invested assets and are carried at cost. Other invested assets also include separately managed accounts, tax credit partnerships and mineral rights less allowance for depletion, where applicable.

For credit losses on fixed maturity securities, available-for-sale, in unrealized loss positions which American National does not intend to sell and for which it is not more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell before its anticipated recovery, American National assesses whether the amortized cost basis of securities will be recovered by comparing the net present value of the expected cash flows from those securities with its amortized cost basis. The expected cash flows are discounted at the effective interest rate of the security and consider historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current market conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts based upon a third-party valuation model. The valuation model calculates expected cash flows based on scenario conditioned probability of default and loss given default. Probability of default measures the likelihood of default over a specified time period, and the loss given default measures the amount that the Company could lose in the event of a counterparty default. If the net present value of the expected cash flows is less than the amortized cost, a credit loss allowance is recorded. The credit loss is recorded as the excess of amortized cost over the net present value of the expected cash flows limited by the amount the fair value is less than the amortized cost (fair-value floor). If the fair value is less than the net present value of its expected cash flows at the impairment measurement date, a non-credit loss exists which is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) for the difference between the fair value and the net present value of the expected cash flows.

Additions to or releases of the allowance on all fixed maturity securities are reported in “Increase (decrease) in investment credit loss” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

Derivative instruments in the form of equity-indexed options are purchased to hedge against future interest rate increases in liabilities indexed to market rates and are recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position within other invested assets at fair value, net of collateral provided by counterparties. The change in fair value of derivative assets and liabilities is reported in the consolidated statements of operations as “Net investment income” and “Interest credited to policyholders’ account balances,” respectively. American National does not apply hedge accounting treatment to its derivative instruments. The Company uses derivative instruments to hedge its business risk and holds collateral to offset exposure from its counterparties. Collateral that supports credit risk is reported in the consolidated statements of financial position as an offset to “Other invested assets” with an associated payable to “Other liabilities” for excess collateral.

Cash and cash equivalents have durations that do not exceed 90 days at the date of acquisition, include cash on-hand and in banks, as well as amounts invested in money market funds, and are reported as “Cash and cash equivalents” in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Property and equipment consist of buildings occupied by American National, data processing equipment, software, furniture and equipment, and automobiles which are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (typically 3 to 50 years).

Goodwill represents the excess of amounts paid for acquiring businesses over the fair value of the net assets acquired, less any impairment of goodwill recognized. Goodwill is recognized when acquired.

Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. Goodwill is assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances, such as deteriorating or adverse market conditions, indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of the reporting unit including goodwill may exceed the fair value.

Goodwill impairment is measured and recognized as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill of the reporting unit. There were no impairment adjustments made to goodwill for any period presented.

Adoption of ASU 2018-12 - Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts

The Company adopted ASU 2018-12, Financial Services—Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts ("LDTI") effective January 1, 2023 with a transition date of May 25, 2022 using a full retrospective approach. LDTI resulted in significant changes to the measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for long-duration insurance contracts. A summary of the most significant changes follows:

(1) Guaranteed benefits associated with certain annuity contracts have been classified and presented separately on the consolidated balance sheets as Market Risk Benefits ("MRB"). MRBs are now measured at estimated fair value through net income and reported separately on the consolidated statements of operations, except for nonperformance risk changes, which will be recognized in Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI").

(2) Cash flow assumptions used to measure the liability for liability for future policy benefits ("LFPB") on traditional long-duration contracts (including term and non-participating whole life insurance and immediate annuities) have been updated on an annual basis.

(3) The discount rate assumption used to measure the liability for traditional long-duration contracts is now based on an upper-medium grade discount rate with changes recognized in OCI.

(4) DAC for all insurance products is required to be amortized on a constant-level basis over the expected term of the contracts, using amortization methods that are not a function of revenue or profit emergence.

(5) There was a significant increase in required disclosures, including disaggregated rollforwards of insurance contract assets and liabilities supplemented by qualitative and quantitative information regarding the cash flows, assumptions, methods and judgements used to measure those balances.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

The following table presents the Company's significant accounting policies which have changed as a result of the adoption of LDTI with cross-references to the notes which provide additional information on such policies.

Accounting Policy	Note
Deferred policy acquisition costs, value of business acquired, unearned revenue and other intangibles		10
Future policy benefit liabilities		18
Policyholder account balances		19
Market risk benefits		20

Deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) are capitalized costs related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts. Significant costs are incurred to acquire insurance and annuity contracts, including commissions and certain underwriting, policy issuance, and processing expenses. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations existing DAC balance was written off as a result of the Merger. The beginning balance as of May 25, 2022 consists of the Value of Business Acquired ("VOBA") at that date.

Insurance contracts are grouped into cohorts by contract type and issue year consistent with estimating the associated liability for future policy benefits. DAC is amortized on constant level basis for the grouped contracts over the expected term of the related contracts to approximate straight-line amortization. DAC will be amortized over the following bases, all of which provide a constant level representation of contract term:

Product(s)		Amortization base
Traditional life products		Nominal face amount
Life contingent payout annuities		Annualized benefit amount in force
Health products		Original annual premium
Fixed deferred annuities, fixed indexed annuities, variable annuities		Policy count
Universal life products		Initial face amount

The bases used for amortization are projected using mortality and lapse assumptions that are based on American National's experience, industry data, and other factors consistent with those used for the liability for future policy benefits.

Amortization of DAC is included in the change in deferred acquisition costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

For short-duration contracts, DAC is grouped consistent with the manner in which insurance contracts are acquired, serviced, and measured for profitability and is reviewed for recoverability based on the profitability of the underlying insurance contracts. Investment income is anticipated in assessing the recoverability of DAC for short-duration contracts. DAC for short duration contracts is charged to expense in proportion to premium revenue recognized.

Value of business acquired ("VOBA") is an intangible asset or liability resulting from a business combination that represents the difference between the policyholder liabilities measured in accordance with the acquiring company's accounting policies and the estimated fair value of the same acquired policyholder liabilities in-force at the acquisition date. VOBA can be either positive or negative. Positive VOBA is recorded as a component of DAC. Negative VOBA occurs when the estimated fair value of in-force contracts in a life insurance company acquisition is greater than the amount recorded as insurance contract liabilities, and is recorded in future policyholder benefits in the consolidated statements of financial position.

VOBA is amortized on an approximated straight-line basis over the remaining life of the underlying policies consistent with DAC.

Liability for future policy benefits ("LFPB") is equal to the present value of expected benefit payments and claim related expenses to be paid or on behalf of policyholders less the present value of expected net premiums to be collected from policyholders. Principal assumptions used in the establishment of the LFPB are mortality, lapse, claim-related expenses, and other contingent events as appropriate to the respective product type. American National groups contracts into annual cohorts based on product type and contract inception date for the purposes of calculating the liability for future policy benefits. A set of qualitative cohorts includes all business issued prior to the acquisition date. Another set of qualitative cohorts includes business issued between the acquisition date and year end 2022. In 2023 and beyond, there is a set of qualitative cohorts for each issue year.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

American National updates its estimate of cash flows over the entire life of a group of contracts using actual historical experience and current future cash flow assumptions. American National will review cash flow assumptions, including assumptions for claim-related expenses annually in the fourth quarter. Assumption revisions will be reflected in the net premium ratio and LFPB calculation in the quarter in which assumptions are revised. The net premium ratio reflects cash flows from contract inception to contract termination (i.e. through the claim paying period) and cannot exceed 100%. Change in the liability due to actual experience is recognized in reserve remeasurement (gains) losses in the consolidated statements of operations.

American National measures the LFPB at each reporting period. The discount rate assumption is determined by developing a yield curve based on market observable yields for upper-medium fixed income instruments derived from an external index. The difference between the updated carrying amount of the liability for future policy benefits measured using the current discount rate assumption and the original discount rate assumption is recognized in other comprehensive income during the period. The net premium ratio is not updated for changes in discount rate assumptions.

Should the present value of actual and future expected benefits less transition LFPB balance exceed the present value of actual and future expected gross premiums, the net premium ratio is capped at 100% and a gross premium LFPB is held. The immediate charge is the amount by which the uncapped net premium ratio exceeds 100% times the present value of future expected gross premium. This assessment is performed at the cohort level.

American National periodically reviews its estimates of actuarial liabilities for future policy benefits and compares them with its actual experience. Differences between actual experience and the assumptions used in pricing these policies, guarantees and riders and in the establishment of the related liabilities result in variances in profit and could result in losses. The effects of changes in such estimated liabilities are included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the changes occur.

Payout annuities include single premium immediate annuities, annuitizations of deferred annuities, and pension risk transfer. These contracts subject the insurer to risks over a period that extends beyond the period or periods in which premiums are collected. These contracts may be either non-life contingent or life contingent. Non-life contingent annuities are accounted for as investment contracts. For life contingent annuities, the Company records a liability at the present value of future annuity payments and estimated future expenses calculated using expected mortality and costs, and expense assumptions. Any gross premiums received in excess of the net premium is the deferred profit liability ("DPL") and is recognized separately in income in a constant relationship with the discounted amount of the expected future benefit payments. These liabilities are recorded in future policy benefits in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Market risk benefits ("MRB") are measured at fair value at the cohort level. Total attributed fees will include explicit rider fees and will not be negative or exceed total contract fees and assessments collectible from the contract holder. There are only rider charges and surrender charges. Surrender charges will not be included in the fair value measurement, as surrender charges do not fund any future benefits. Cash flows are projected using risk-neutral scenarios generated by the company. The Company establishes MRB assets and liabilities for guaranteed minimum withdraw benefits ("GMWB") associated with equity-indexed annuity contracts.

The actuarial assumptions used in the MRB calculation are the company’s best estimate assumptions. Assumptions are adjusted to reflect fair value by applying a margin for non-hedgeable risk and an adjustment for own credit spread through the discount rate. The risk-free discount rate is the scenario specific US treasury rate. The assumptions used for MRB are consistent with other fair value calculations performed by American National.

Policyholders’ account balances represent the contract value that has accrued to the benefit of the policyholders related to universal-life and investments-type contracts. For fixed products, these are generally equal to the accumulated deposits plus interest credited, reduced by withdrawals, payouts, and accumulated policyholder assessments. Indexed product account balances are equal to the sum of host and embedded derivative reserves computed.

Liabilities for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses (“CAE”) are established to provide for the estimated costs of paying claims. These reserves include estimates for both case reserves and IBNR claim liabilities. Case reserves include the liability for reported but unpaid claims. IBNR liabilities include a provision for potential development on case reserves, losses on claims currently closed which may reopen in the future, as well as IBNR claims. These liabilities also include an estimate of the expense associated with settling claims, including legal and other fees, and the general expenses of administering the claims adjustment process.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

Reinsurance recoverables are estimated amounts due to American National from reinsurers related to paid and unpaid ceded claims and CAE and are presented net of a reserve for collectability. Recoveries of gross ultimate losses under our non-catastrophe reinsurance are estimated by a review of individual large claims and the ceded portion of IBNR using assumed distribution of loss by percentage retained. Recoveries of gross ultimate losses under our catastrophe reinsurance are estimated by applying reinsurance treaty terms to estimates of gross ultimate losses. The most significant assumption is the average size of the individual losses for those claims that have occurred but have not yet been reported and our estimate of gross ultimate losses. The ultimate amount of the reinsurance ceded recoverable is unknown until all losses settle.

Separate account assets and liabilities

Separate account assets and liabilities are funds that are held separate from the general assets and liabilities of American National. Separate account assets include funds representing the investments of variable insurance product contract holders, who bear the investment risk of such funds. Investment income and investment gains and losses from these separate funds accrue to the benefit of the contract holders. American National reports separately, as assets and liabilities, investments held in such separate accounts and liabilities of the separate accounts if (i) such separate accounts are legally recognized; (ii) assets supporting the contract liabilities are legally insulated from American National’s general account liabilities; (iii) investments are directed by the contract holder; and (iv) all investment performance, net of contract fees and assessments, is passed through to the contract holder. In addition, American National's qualified pension plan assets are included in separate accounts. The assets of these accounts are carried at fair value. Deposits, net investment income and realized investment gains and losses for these accounts are excluded from revenues, and related liability increases are excluded from benefits and expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Separate accounts are established in conformity with insurance laws and are not chargeable with liabilities that arise from any other business of American National.

Premiums, benefits, claims incurred, and expenses

Traditional ordinary life and health premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Benefits and expenses are associated with earned premiums to result in recognition of profits over the term of the insurance contracts.

Annuity premiums received on limited-pay and supplemental annuity contracts involving a significant life contingency are recognized as revenue when due. Deferred annuity premiums are recorded as deposits rather than recognized as revenue. Revenues from deferred annuity contracts are principally surrender charges and, in the case of variable annuities, administrative fees assessed to contract holders.

Universal life and single premium whole life revenues represent amounts assessed to policyholders including mortality charges, surrender charges actually paid, and earned policy service fees. Amounts included in expenses are benefits in excess of account balances returned to policyholders.

Property and casualty premiums are recognized as revenue over the period of the contract in proportion to the amount of insurance protection, which is generally recognized evenly over the contract period, net of reinsurance ceded. Claims incurred consist of claims and CAE paid and the change in reserves, net of reinsurance received and recoverable.

Participating insurance policies

Participating business at December 31, 2023 and 2022 comprised approximately 4.0% and 3.8% of the life insurance in-force and 18.0% and 29.5% of life premiums at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

For the majority of this participating business, profits earned are reserved for the payment of dividends to policyholders, except for the stockholders’ share of profits on participating policies, which is limited to the greater of 10% of the profit on participating business, or 50 cents per thousand dollars of the face amount of participating life insurance in-force. Participating policyholders’ interest includes the accumulated net income from participating policies reserved for payment to such policyholders in the form of dividends (less net income allocated to stockholders as indicated above) as well as a pro rata portion of unrealized investment gains (losses). Dividends to participating policyholders were $8.8 million and $9.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Income of $19.4 million and $19.0 million was allocated to participating policyholders for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

For all other participating business, the allocation of dividends to participating policyowners is based upon a comparison of experienced rates of mortality, interest and expenses, as determined periodically for representative plans of insurance, issue ages and policy durations, with the corresponding rates assumed in the calculation of premiums.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices - (Continued)

Federal income taxes

American National files a consolidated life and non-life federal income tax return with its parent , BAMR US Holdings LLC ("BAMR US"), a subsidiary of Brookfield Reinsurance Ltd. Certain subsidiaries that are consolidated for financial reporting are not eligible to be included in the consolidated federal income tax return, and therefore file separate returns. In accordance with the Company’s tax sharing agreement with BAMR US, tax liabilities for the consolidated federal income tax return are calculated as if each subsidiary filed a separate federal income tax return. If the Company has taxable income, it pays its share of the consolidated federal income tax liability to BAMR US. However, if the Company incurs a tax loss, the tax benefit is recovered by decreasing subsequent year’s federal income tax payments to BAMR US.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred taxes are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

American National recognizes tax benefits on uncertain tax positions if it is “more-likely-than-not” the position based on its technical merits will be sustained by taxing authorities. American National recognizes the largest benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being ultimately realized upon settlement. Tax benefits not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, if applicable, are included within “Other liabilities” in the consolidated statements of financial position. American National recognizes interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if applicable, as income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Accrued interest expense and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are reported as "Other liabilities" in the consolidated statements of financial position.

Pension and postretirement benefit plans

Pension and postretirement benefit obligations and costs for our frozen benefit plans are estimated using assumptions including demographic factors such as retirement age and mortality.

American National uses a discount rate to determine the present value of future benefits on the measurement date. The guideline for setting this rate is a high-quality long-term corporate bond rate. For this purpose, a hypothetical bond portfolio to match the expected monthly benefit payments under the pension plan was constructed with the resulting yield of the portfolio used as a discount rate.

In developing the investment return assumption, we relied on a model that utilizes the following factors:

Current yield to maturity of fixed income securities

Forecasts of inflation, GDP growth, and total return for each asset class

Historical plan performance

Target asset allocation

Standard deviations and correlations related to historical and expected future returns of each asset class and inflation

The resulting assumption is the assumed rate of return for the plans’ target asset allocation, net of investment expenses, and reflects anticipated returns of the plans’ current and future assets.

Using this approach, the calculated return will fluctuate from year to year; however, it is American National’s policy to hold this long-term assumption relatively constant.

Litigation contingencies

Existing and potential litigation is reviewed quarterly to determine if any adjustments to liabilities for possible losses are necessary. Reserves 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, a reserve is recorded based on the lowest amount of the range.

Transition Date Impacts of the Adoption of ASU 2018-12 - Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts

Due to the acquisition of American National by Brookfield Reinsurance on May 25, 2022 and the guidelines under ASC 805, Business Combinations, the inception date for all contracts issued before that date became May 25, 2022. Under purchase accounting guidelines, fair value of equity must be equal to the purchase price at the acquisition date. As a result, there will not be any impact to the opening balances of retained earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income due to the adoption of the standard on the transition date of May 25, 2022.

The transition impact of the MRBs and LFPB will be recorded to VOBA liability resulting in no impact to shareholders equity, as noted above.

The following table presents a summary of the Transition Date impacts associated with the implementation of LDTI to the consolidated balance sheet (in thousands):

	Successor
		Future Policy Benefits			Market Risk Benefits		VOBA Liability
As previously reported May 25, 2022	$	4,662,434		$	—	$	662,905
Reclassification of carrying amount of contracts and contract features that are market risk benefits		(107,432	)		107,432		—
Adjustment to reflect transition impact to balance established as part of purchase accounting upon the Brookfield acquisition		(315,561	)		64,580		250,981

Adjustment to reflect transition impact to balance established as part of purchase accounting upon the Brookfield acquisition		64,580
As adjusted May 25, 2022	$	172,012

The Transition Date impacts associated with the implementation of LDTI were applied as follows:

Market risk benefits - The full retrospective transition approach for MRBs required assessing products to determine whether contract or contract features expose the Company to other than nominal capital market risk. The population of MRBs identified was then reviewed to determine the historical measurement model prior to adoption of LDTI.

Note 3 – Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - (Continued)

At the Transition Date, the impacts to the financial statements of the full retrospective approach for MRBs include the following:

The amounts previously recorded for these contracts within additional insurance liabilities and other insurance liabilities were reclassified to MRB liabilities;

The difference between the fair value of the MRBs and the previously recorded carrying value at the Transition Date, including the cumulative effect of changes in nonperformance risk of the Company, was recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of VOBA liability.

Liability for future policy benefits - The full retrospective transition approach for LFPB utilized a defined valuation premium method. This process required grouping contracts in-force as of the Transition Date into cohorts, and then calculating revised LFPB using an updated net premium ratio, best estimate cash flow assumptions without a provision for adverse deviation and the locked-in discount rate. The decrease to the liability for future policy benefits at transition is driven by unlocking of assumptions and measurement at upper medium grade discount rates for traditional life and life contingent payout annuity business.

Due to the acquisition of American National by Brookfield Reinsurance on May 25, 2022 , the balances of deferred acquisition costs, deferred profit liability, unearned revenue, and sales inducement assets were written down to $0 at the acquisition date. As a result, there is no impact to these balances at transition.

The following table presents amounts previously reported in 2022, the effect on those amounts of the change due to the adoption of ASU 2018-12, and the currently reported amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (in thousands).

Other Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Standard	Description	Effective Date and Method of Adoption	Impact on Financial Statements
ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDR") and Vintage Disclosures	This ASU eliminates TDR recognition and measurement guidance and, instead, requires that an entity evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendments also enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduce new requirements related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.	The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2023 and applied it prospectively.	The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption, but could change the future recognition and measurement of modified loans.

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. Based on this evaluation, unrealized losses on bonds available-for-sale where an allowance for credit loss was not recorded were concentrated in the Company's fixed maturity securities within the transportation sector.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Available-for-Sale Securities—For available-for-sale bonds in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell the security or will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria are met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For bonds available-for-sale that do not meet either indicated criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit events or market factors. In making this assessment, management first calculates the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, and then may consider any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and any specific conditions related to the security. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security is compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded through income, limited to the amount fair value is less than amortized cost. Any remaining unrealized loss is recognized in other comprehensive income.

When the discounted cash flow method is used to determine the allowance for credit losses, management's estimates incorporate expected prepayments, if any. Model inputs are considered reasonable and supportable for three years. A mean reversion is applied in years four and five. Credit loss allowance is not measured on accrued interest receivable because the balance is written

off to net investment income in a timely manner, within 90 days. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recognized through the consolidated statement of operations as "(Increase) decrease in investment credit loss."

No accrued interest receivables were written off as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company monitors the credit quality of bonds available-for-sale through the use of credit ratings provided by third party rating agencies, which are updated on a monthly basis. Information is also gathered regarding the asset performance of available-for-sale bonds. The two traditional metrics for assessing interest rate risks are interest-coverage ratios and capitalization ratios,

which can also be used in the assessment of credit risk. These risks are mitigated through the diversification of bond investments. Categories of diversification include credit ratings, geographic locations, maturities, and market sector.

Note 5 – Mortgage Loans

Generally, commercial mortgage loans are secured by first liens on income-producing real estate. American National attempts to maintain a diversified portfolio by considering both the location of the underlying collateral as well as the type of mortgage loan. The geographic categories come from the U.S. Census Bureau's "Census Regions and Divisions of the United States."

Through the COVID-19 pandemic, American National provided modifications to loans in the form of forbearance of principal and interest payments for up to six months, extensions of maturity dates, and/or provisions for interest only payments. As a result of improved economic conditions, all loans have been paid in full or have completed the modified terms and returned to the original loan agreement as of December 31, 2022, except for three loans. These three loans received additional modifications in the form of extended maturity dates or interest only periods. All loans have fully repaid deferred interest on COVID modifications as of December 31, 2023.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

The Company may modify the terms of a loan when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, as a means to optimize recovery of amounts due on the loan. Modifications may involve temporary relief, such as payment forbearance for a short period of time (where interest continues to accrue) or may involve more substantive changes to a loan. Changes to the terms of a loan, pursuant to a modification agreement, are factored into the analysis of the loan’s expected credit losses, under the allowance model applicable to the loan.

For commercial mortgage loans, modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are tailored for individual loans and may include interest rate relief, maturity extensions or, less frequently, principal forgiveness. For residential mortgage loans, the most common modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, aside from insignificant delays in payment, typically involve interest rate relief, deferral of missed payments to the end of the loan term, or maturity extensions.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company granted additional extensions on nine previously restructured loans totaling $141.0 million in amortized cost. The loan term modifications ranged from 3 months to 24 months and represented approximately 2.4% of the portfolio segment.

Note 5 – Mortgage Loans – (Continued)

Allowance for Credit Losses

Mortgage loans on real estate are stated at unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any unamortized discount, deferred expenses and allowances. The allowance for credit losses is based upon the current expected credit loss model. The model considers past loss experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions. Reversion for the allowance calculation is implicit in the models used to determine the allowance. The methodology uses a discounted cash flow approach based on expected cash flows.

The Predecessor balance of $92.8 million at May 24, 2022 was closed out and the Successor recovered the entire allowance balance after the Merger as required by PGAAP guidance. The provision of $38.3 million is the net amount of recovery and adjustment for the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022. Refer to Note 1, Nature of Operations, for more information.

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 property-type are shown below (in thousands):

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. At December 31, 2023, three commercial loans were past due over 90 days or in non-accrual status.

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

The Company has off-balance sheet credit exposures related to non-cancellable unfunded commitment amounts on commercial mortgage loans. We estimate the allowance for these exposures by applying the allowance rate we computed for each property type to the related outstanding commitment amounts. As of December 31, 2023, we have included a $3.5 million liability in other liabilities on the consolidated statements of financial position based on unfunded loan commitments of $468 million.

Consolidated VIEs

American National regularly invests in real estate partnerships and frequently participates in the design with the sponsor, but in most cases, its involvement is limited to financing. Some of these partnerships have been determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”). In certain instances, in addition to an economic interest in the entity, American National holds the power to direct significant activities of the entity and is deemed the primary beneficiary. The assets of the 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 American National, as American National’s obligation is limited to the amount of its committed investment.

American National has not provided financial or other support to the 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 the VIEs in 2023 or 2022.

The assets and liabilities relating to the VIEs included in the consolidated financial statements are as follows (in thousands):

Note 7 – Derivative Instruments

American National purchases over-the-counter equity-indexed options as economic hedges against fluctuations in the equity markets to which equity-indexed products are exposed. These options are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes under GAAP. Equity-indexed contracts include a fixed host universal-life insurance or annuity contract and an equity-indexed embedded derivative. The detail of derivative instruments is shown below (in thousands, except number of instruments):

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 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 excess collateral.

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 at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant. American National 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 American National’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.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments – (Continued)

Valuation Techniques for Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value

Fixed Maturity Securities and Equity Options—American National utilizes a pricing service to estimate fair value measurements. The fair value for 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 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 fixed maturity securities that have quoted prices in active markets. Since 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 the 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.

American National 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. American National does not adjust quotes received from the pricing service. The pricing service utilized by American National has indicated that they will only produce an estimate of fair value if there is objectively verifiable information available.

American National holds a small amount of private placement debt and 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, American National includes these fair value estimates in Level 3.

For securities priced using a quote from an independent pricing source, such as the equity-indexed options and certain fixed maturity securities, American National 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 fixed maturity securities. If applicable, these estimates would be disclosed as Level 2 measurements. American National tests the accuracy of the information provided by reference to other services annually.

Short-term Investments—Short-term investments include highly liquid securities and other investments with remaining maturities of one year or less, but greater than three months, at the time of purchase. Securities included within short-term investments are stated at estimated fair value, while other investments included within short-term investments are stated at amortized cost less allowances, which approximates estimated fair value.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments – (Continued)

Separate Account Assets and Liabilities—Separate account assets and liabilities are funds that are held separate from the general assets and liabilities of American National. Separate account assets include funds representing the investments of variable insurance product contract holders, who bear the investment risk of such funds. Investment income and investment gains and losses from these separate funds accrue to the benefit of the contract holders. American National reports separately, as assets and liabilities, investments held in such separate accounts and liabilities of the separate accounts if (i) such separate accounts are legally recognized; (ii) assets supporting the contract liabilities are legally insulated from American National’s general account liabilities; (iii) investments are directed by the contract holder; and (iv) all investment performance, net of contract fees and assessments, is passed through to the contract holder. In addition, American National's qualified pension plan assets are included in separate accounts. The assets of these accounts are carried at fair value. Deposits, net investment income and realized investment gains and losses for these accounts are excluded from revenues, and related liability increases are excluded from benefits and expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Separate accounts are established in conformity with insurance laws and are not chargeable with liabilities that arise from any other business of American National.

The separate account assets included on the quantitative disclosures fair value hierarchy table are comprised of short-term investments, equity securities, and fixed maturity bonds available-for-sale. Equity securities are classified as Level 1 measurements. Short-term investments and 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 financial instruments and are not included in the quantitative disclosures of fair value hierarchy table.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments – (Continued)

Embedded Derivatives—The amounts reported within policyholder contract deposits include equity linked interest crediting rates based on the S&P 500 within indexed annuities and indexed life. The following unobservable inputs are used for measuring the fair value of the embedded derivatives associated with the policyholder contract liabilities:

•

Lapse rate assumptions are determined by company experience. Lapse rates are generally assumed to be lower during a contract’s surrender charge period and then higher once the surrender charge period has ended. Decreases to the assumed lapse rates generally increase the fair value of the liability as more policyholders persist to collect the crediting interest pertaining to the indexed product. Increases to the lapse rate assumption decrease the fair value.

•

Mortality rate assumptions vary by age and gender based on company and industry experience. Decreases to the assumed mortality rates increase the fair value of the liabilities as more policyholders earn crediting interest. Increases to the assumed mortality rates decrease the fair value as higher decrements reduce the potential for future interest credits.

•

Equity volatility assumptions begin with current market volatilities and grow to long-term values. Increases to the assumed volatility will increase the fair value of liabilities, as future projections will produce higher increases in the linked index. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the one year implied volatility used to estimate embedded derivative value was 16.4% and 23.4%, respectively.

Fair values of indexed life and annuity liabilities are calculated using the discounted cash flow technique. Shown below are the significant unobservable inputs used to calculate the Level 3 fair value of the embedded derivatives within policyholder contract deposits (in millions, except range percentages):

	Fair Value					Range
	December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022		Unobservable Input	December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022

Within the net gain (loss) for derivatives included in net investment income were unrealized losses of $59.2 million and unrealized gains of $30.0 million, relating to assets still held at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value hierarchies during the periods presented. American National’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. Approximately $3,354.0 million of securities were priced by third party services as of December 31, 2023. There were $802.1 million of bonds and $186.4 million equities priced at cost as of December 31, 2023.

Equity-Indexed Options—Certain over the counter equity options are valued using models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry. These are categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs such as volatility and forward price/dividend assumptions. Other primary inputs include interest rate assumptions (risk-free rate assumptions), and underlying equity quoted index prices for identical or similar assets in markets that exhibit less liquidity relative to those markets.

Investment Securities—These bonds use cost as the best estimate of fair value. They are valued at cost because the value would not change unless there is a fundamental deterioration in the portfolio. There is no observable market valuation price or third-party sources that provide market values for these securities since they are not publicly traded. The common and preferred stock are valued at market transaction, option pricing method, or guideline public company method based on the best available information.

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 rate 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.

Note 9 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments – (Continued)

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, American National believes the carrying value of policy loans approximates fair value.

Investment Contracts—The carrying value of investment contracts is equivalent to the accrued account balance. The accrued account balance consists of deposits, net of withdrawals, net of interest credited, fees and charges assessed and other adjustments. American National believes that the carrying value of investment contracts approximates fair value because the majority of these contracts’ interest rates reset at anniversary.

Long-term Debt —Long-term debt is carried at outstanding principal balance less unamortized fees. The carrying value approximates fair value because the underlying interest rates approximate market rates at the balance sheet date.

Notes Payable—Notes payable are carried at outstanding principal balance. The carrying value of the notes payable approximates fair value because the underlying interest rates approximate market rates at the balance sheet date.

The liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses (“claims”) for health and property and casualty insurance is included in “Policy and contract claims” in the consolidated statements of financial position and is the amount estimated for incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims and claims that have been reported but not settled. The liability for unpaid claims is estimated based upon American National’s historical experience and actuarial assumptions that consider the effects of current developments, anticipated trends and risk management programs, less anticipated salvage and subrogation. The effects of the changes are included in the consolidated results of operations in the period in which the changes occur. The time value of money is not taken into account for the purposes of calculating the liability for unpaid claims. There have been no significant changes in methodologies or assumptions used to calculate the liability for unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses.

Estimates for ultimate incurred claims attributable to insured events of prior years’ decreased by approximately $80.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 and decreased by $31.2 million during the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022. The favorable development in 2023 was a reflection of lower-than-anticipated losses arising from commercial lines of business. The favorable development in 2022 during the "Successor" period was a reflection of lower-than-anticipated settlement of losses emerging from commercial automotive, agribusiness, commercial business owner and guaranteed asset protection waiver lines of business, and for the "Successor" period a reflection of lower-than-anticipated settlement of losses emerging from Managing General Underwriting, credit health, worksite health, personal Auto, commercial auto and agribusiness 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 and claim adjustment expenses at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $4.2 million and $16.0 million, respectively.

Property and Casualty Reserving Methodology—The following methods are utilized:

Initial Expected Loss Ratio—This method calculates an estimate of ultimate losses by applying an estimated loss ratio to actual earned premium for each calendar/accident year. This method is appropriate for classes of business where the actual paid or reported loss experience is not yet mature enough to influence initial expectations of the ultimate loss ratios.

Pegged Frequency and Severity—This method uses actual claims count data and emergence patterns of older accident periods to project the ultimate number of reported claims for a given accident year. A similar process projects the ultimate average severity per claim so that the product of the two projections results in a projection of ultimate loss for a given accident year.

Bornhuetter-Ferguson—This method uses, as a starting point, either an assumed Initial Expected Loss Ratio Method or Pegged Frequency and Severity method and blends in the loss ratio or frequency and severity implied by the claims experience to date by using loss development patterns based on our historical experience. This method is generally appropriate where there are few reported claims and an unstable pattern of reported losses.

Loss or Expense Development (Chain Ladder)—This method uses actual loss or defense and cost containment expense data and the historical development profiles on older accident periods to project more recent, less developed periods to their ultimate total. This method is appropriate when there is a relatively stable pattern of loss and expense emergence and a relatively large number of reported claims.

Ratio of Paid Defense and Cost Containment Expense to Paid Loss Development—This method uses the ratio of paid defense and cost containment expense to paid loss data and the historical development profiles on older accident periods to project more recent, less developed periods to their ultimate total. In this method, an ultimate ratio of paid defense and cost containment expense to paid loss is selected for each accident period. The selected paid defense and cost containment expense to paid loss ratio is then applied to the selected ultimate loss for each accident period to estimate the ultimate defense and cost containment expense. Paid defense and cost containment expense is then subtracted from the ultimate defense and cost containment expense to calculate the unpaid defense and cost containment expense for that accident period.

Calendar Year Paid Adjusting and Other Expense to Paid Loss—This method uses a selected prior calendar years’ paid expense to paid loss ratio to project ultimate loss adjustment expenses for adjusting and other expense. A percentage of the selected ratio is applied to the case reserves (depending on the line of insurance) and 100% to the indicated IBNR reserves. These ratios assume that a percentage of the expense is incurred when a claim is opened and the remaining percentage is paid throughout the claim’s life.

For most credit property and casualty products, IBNR liability is calculated as a percentage of pro rata unearned premium, with the specific percentage for a given product line informed by a traditional completion factor claim reserve analysis.

The expected development on reported claims is the sum of a pay-to-current reserve and a future reserve. The pay-to-current reserve is calculated for each open claim having a monthly indemnity and contains the amount required to pay the open claim from the last payment date to the current valuation date. The future reserve is calculated by assigning to each open claim a fixed reserve amount based on the historical average severity. For debt cancellation products and involuntary unemployment insurance, this reserve is calculated using published valuation tables.

Cumulative claim frequency information is calculated on a per claim basis. Claims that do not result in a liability are not considered in the determination of unpaid liabilities.

For any given line of business, none of these methods are relied on exclusively. With minor exceptions, multiple methods may be used for a line of business as a check for reasonableness of our reselected reserve value.

The following contains information about incurred and paid claims development as of December 31, 2023, net of reinsurance, as well as cumulative claim frequency and the total of IBNR liabilities plus expected development on reported claims included within the net incurred claims amounts. The information about incurred and paid claims development for the years ended December 31, 2014 to 2022 is presented as supplementary information.

Health Reserving Methodology—The following methods are utilized:

Completion Factor Approach—This method assumes that the historical claim patterns will be an accurate representation of unpaid claim liabilities. An estimate of the unpaid claims is calculated by subtracting period-to-date paid claims from an estimate of the ultimate “complete” payment for all incurred claims in the period. Completion factors are calculated which “complete” the current period-to-date payment totals for each incurred month to estimate the ultimate expected payout.

Tabular Claims Reserves—This method is used to calculate the reserves for long-term care and disability income blocks of business. These reserves rely on published valuation continuance tables created using industry experience regarding assumptions of continued morbidity and subsequent recovery. Reserves are calculated by applying these continuance tables, along with appropriate company experience adjustments, to the stream of contractual benefit payments. These expected benefit payments are discounted at the required interest rate.

Future Policy Benefits—Reserves are equal to the aggregate of the present value of expected future benefit payments, less the present value of expected future premiums. Morbidity and termination assumptions are based on our experience or published valuation tables when available and appropriate.

Premium Deficiency Reserves—Deficiency reserves are established when the expected future claim payments and expenses for a classification of policies are in excess of the expected premiums for these policies. The determination of a deficiency reserve takes into consideration the likelihood of premium rate increases, the timing of these increases, future net investment income, and the expected benefit utilization patterns. We have established premium deficiency reserves for portions of the major medical business and the long-term care business that are in run-off. The assumptions and methods used to determine the deficiency reserves are reviewed periodically for reasonableness, and the reserve amount is monitored against emerging losses.

There is no expected development on reported claims in the health blocks. Claim frequency is determined by totaling the number of unique claim numbers during the period as each unique claim number represents a claim event for an individual claimant.

Credit Health Reserving Methodology—The following methods are utilized:

Tabular Claims Reserves—These reserves rely on published valuation continuance tables. The insured's age at disablement, the duration of the claim and the remaining term of the policy are used to provide a factor which is applied to the remaining exposure to calculate the present value of future benefits for insureds on claim.

The claim liability consists of IBNR and Due/Unpaid. The IBNR utilizes an inventory type method based on historical patterns of claim payments incurred but not reported within the last six months of the valuation date.

The Due/Unpaid reserves are the amount needed to pay an open claim from the last date of payment to the reserve valuation date.

American National’s federal income tax returns for tax years 2020 to 2022 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. In the opinion of management, all prior year deficiencies have been paid or adequate provisions have been made for any tax deficiencies that may be upheld.

As of December 31, 2023, American National had no provision for uncertain tax positions and no provision for penalties or interest. In addition, management does not believe there are any uncertain tax benefits that could be recognized within the next twelve months that would impact American National’s effective tax rate.

Total net deferred tax asset (liability)	$	291,340		$	439,114

As of December 31, 2023, American National reported a deferred tax asset of $291.3 million compared to a deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 of $439.1 million. The decrease from prior year was primarily due to a change in unrealized losses on investments not recognized for tax.

As of December 31, 2023, American National had net operating loss carryforwards of $134 million and foreign tax credit carryovers of $3 million. If not utilized, net operating loss carryforwards of $56 million will expire in 2043 and $55 million may be carried forward indefinitely. Foreign tax credit carryovers, of not utilized, will expire in 2033.

GAAP requires us to evaluate the recoverability of our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Considerable judgment is required in determining whether a valuation allowance is necessary, and if so, the amount of such valuation allowance. There were no material changes to our valuation allowance recorded during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more-likely-than-not that our remaining deferred tax assets will be realized and that as of December 31, 2023, no additional valuation allowance is required.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act included several tax provisions including a corporate alternative minimum tax ("CAMT") effective in 2023. As of December 31, 2023, American National is not an applicable reporting entity and as such, had no provision under CAMT.

Introduction of Pillar Two

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) and its member countries with support from the G20, have proposed the enactment of a global minimum tax of 15% for Multinational Enterprise (“MNE”) groups with global annual revenue of €750 million or more (“Pillar Two”). The Company may become subject to additional income taxes as a result of these proposals, as enacted locally across jurisdictions.

Note 12 – Federal Income Taxes - (Continued)

American National's wholly owned subsidiary, Freestone Re LTD., is incorporated under the laws of Bermuda and is not required to pay any taxes in Bermuda based upon income or capital gains. However, in December 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted a corporate income tax (“CIT”) regime, designed to align with the OECD’s global minimum tax rules. Effective 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. As a result of this new regime, American National recognized a deferred tax asset of $35 million as of December 31, 2023. We will continue to monitor developments prior to the commencement of this regime.

Note 14 – Equity and Noncontrolling Interests

Prior to the Merger, ANAT had one class of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share, with 50,000,000 authorized shares and 26,887,200 outstanding shares (including 10,000 shares of restricted stock). On May 25, 2022, the effective date of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of the Company's common stock was converted into the right to receive $190.00 in cash without interest pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Refer to Note 1, Nature of Operations, for more information. Subsequent to the closing of the Merger, and effective September 30, 2022, ANAT converted from a corporation to a limited liability company. Following such conversion, there is one outstanding member unit, which is indirectly owned by Brookfield Reinsurance.

Earnings per Share

Prior to the Merger, basic earnings per share were calculated using a weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share include Restricted Stock (“RS”) awards and Restricted Stock Units (“RSU”) award shares issued in 2019. RSUs issued in 2021 may only be settled in cash. All stock-based compensation awards were settled at the closing of the Merger, with no such awards outstanding as of May 25, 2022.

Risk Based Capital (“RBC”) is a measure defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") and is used by insurance regulators to evaluate the capital adequacy of American National's insurance subsidiaries. RBC is calculated using formulas applied to certain financial balances and activities that consider, among other things, investment risks related to the type and quality of investments, insurance risks associated with products and liabilities, interest rate risks and general business risks. Insurance companies that do not maintain capital and surplus at a level at least 100% of the company action level RBC are required to take certain actions.

American National's insurance subsidiaries prepare financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the insurance department of each subsidiary's state of domicile, which include certain components of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ Codification of Statutory Accounting Principles (“NAIC Codification”). NAIC Codification is intended to standardize regulatory accounting and reporting to state insurance departments. However, statutory accounting practices continue to be established by individual state laws and permitted practices. Modifications by the various state insurance departments may impact the statutory capital and surplus of our insurance subsidiaries.

Statutory accounting differs from GAAP primarily by charging policy acquisition costs to expense as incurred, establishing future policy benefit liabilities using different actuarial assumptions, and valuing securities on a different basis. In addition, certain assets are not admitted under statutory accounting principles and are charged directly to surplus.

American National has been granted a permitted practice from the Texas Department of Insurance to recognize an admitted asset related to the notional value of coverage defined in an excess of loss reinsurance agreement. The permitted practice increases the statutory capital and surplus of American National by $548.2 million at December 31, 2023. The statutory capital and surplus of American National would have remained above authorized control level RBC had it not used the permitted practice.

One of American National’s insurance subsidiaries has been granted a permitted practice from the Missouri Department of Insurance to record as the valuation of its investment in a wholly-owned subsidiary that is the attorney-in-fact for a Texas domiciled insurer, the statutory capital and surplus of the Texas domiciled insurer. This permitted practice increases the statutory capital and surplus of American National Property And Casualty Company ("ANPAC") by $70.6 million and $79.3 million at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The statutory capital and surplus of both ANPAC and American National Lloyds Insurance Company would have remained above the authorized control level RBC had it not used the permitted practice.

Dividends

We paid a quarterly dividend of $0.82 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2022, prior to the completion of the Merger effective May 25, 2022.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement with Brookfield Reinsurance, American National was not permitted to pay cash dividends prior to the closing of the Merger, except for quarterly cash dividends of not more than $0.82 per share, with record and payment dates set forth on an agreed schedule that reflected American National’s historical dividend amounts, record dates and payment dates. Consistent with that schedule, American National paid four quarterly cash dividends after the Merger Agreement was signed on August 6, 2021.

On January 1, 2023, ANICO's wholly-owned subsidiary ANH Investments, LLC (“ANH”) distributed the stock of its wholly- owned subsidiary American National Insurance Holdings, Inc. (“ANIH”) to ANICO, and ANICO distributed such stock to ANAT. Such transactions were pursuant to approvals from the domiciliary state insurance regulators of ANICO and the subsidiary insurance companies owned by ANIH as of December 31, 2022. In addition, on January 1, 2023, ANICO distributed its entire interest in its wholly-owned subsidiary, ANTAC, LLC to ANAT.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, ANAT paid dividends of $750.0 million.

Noncontrolling Interest

American National County Mutual Insurance Company (“County Mutual”) is a mutual insurance company owned by its policyholders. ANICO has a management agreement that effectively gives it control of County Mutual. As a result, County Mutual is included in the consolidated financial statements of American National. Policyholder interests in the financial position of County Mutual are reflected as noncontrolling interest of $6.8 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022.

ANAT and its subsidiaries exercise control or ownership of various joint ventures, resulting in their consolidation into American National’s consolidated financial statements. The interests of the other partners in the consolidated joint ventures are shown as a noncontrolling interest of $100.7 million and $67.5 million at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Note 15 – Debt

As a result of the Merger on May 25, 2022, the Company assumed the 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. Interest is tied to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") and reset and paid quarterly. The all in rate at the end of the fourth quarter was 6.278%. On June 13, 2022, the Company repaid $500 million under the Term Loan Agreement and at December 31, 2023 had $1.0 billion principal amount outstanding. The outstanding debt balance was reduced by $2.6 million in unamortized issuance costs as of December 31, 2023. Interest payments of $64.8 million and $18.5 million were made during the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022, respectively.

In June 2022, the Company issued $500 million of 6.144% unsecured Senior Notes maturing June 13, 2032. Interest is payable in arrears in June and December of each year. Such notes were offered under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to repay a portion of the Term Loan Agreement. The outstanding note balance was reduced by $4.1 million in unamortized issuance costs as of December 31, 2023. Interest payments of $30.8 million and $15.4 million were made during the year ended December 31, 2023 and for the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022, respectively.

Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

American National and its subsidiaries lease insurance sales office space, technological equipment, and automobiles. The remaining long-term lease commitments at December 31, 2023 were approximately $13.6 million.

American National had aggregate commitments at December 31, 2023 to purchase, expand or improve real estate, to fund fixed interest rate mortgage loans, and to purchase other invested assets of $1.7 billion, of which $1.2 billion is expected to be funded in 2024, with the remainder of $461.5 million funded in 2025 and beyond.

In addition, the Company had revolving commitments of $112.5 million expected to be funded during 2023 and 2024.

American National had outstanding letters of credit in the amount of $3.5 million as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Agreements

The Company has 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 December 31, 2023, certain municipal bonds and collateralized mortgage obligations with a fair value of approximately $7.6 million and commercial mortgage loans of approximately $977.4 million were on deposit with the FHLB as collateral for borrowing. As of December 31, 2023, the collateral provided borrowing capacity of approximately $646.1 million. The deposited securities and commercial mortgage loans are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position within fixed maturity securities and mortgage loans on real estate, net of allowance, respectively.

Litigation

American National and certain 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 of these lawsuits include claims for compensatory and punitive damages. We provide accruals for these items to the extent we deem 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 American National’s consolidated 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.

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 our consolidated 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 American National 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.

Note 17 – Related Party Transactions

American National has entered into recurring transactions and agreements with certain related parties. Prior to the Merger, these included mortgage loans, management contracts, agency commission contracts, marketing agreements, health insurance contracts, and legal services. The impact on the consolidated financial statements of significant related party transactions is discussed below.

In 2023, the Company purchased related party investments totaling $4.0 billion, of which $2.2 billion were collateral loans, $1.3 billion in bonds and $492.7 million in common stock and other various investment classes. In 2022, the Company purchased $140.8 million in related party investments, composed of $88.9 million in commercial mortgage loans, and $51.7 million in bonds. Investment transactions with related parties are accounted for in the same manner as those with unrelated parties in the financial statements.

For the year ended December 2023, the Company paid investment management fees due to related party arrangements of $43.4 million. For the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the Company paid investment management fees of $24.2 million.

On November 8, 2022 ANAT and BAMR US Holdings LLC entered into a deposit agreement. The balance at December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $294.3 million and $603.6 million, respectively. The deposit is considered cash and cash equivalent in the Company's consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

On August 17, 2023 ANTAC, LLC (a subsidiary of ANAT) and BAMR US Holdings LLC entered into a deposit agreement. The balance at December 31, 2023 was $180.7 million. The deposit is considered cash and cash equivalents in the Company's consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023.

The Company's subsidiary deposited $250.0 million with the Brookfield Treasury Management Inc (“BTMI”) as of December 31, 2023. This amount is included in cash and cash equivalents. Interest income earned was $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Note 19 – Policyholders' Account Balances

Policyholder account balances relate to investment-type contracts and universal life-type policies. Investment-type contracts principally include traditional individual fixed annuities in the accumulation phase and non-variable group annuity contracts. Policyholder account balances are equal to (i) policy account values, which consist of an accumulation of gross premium payments; (ii) credited interest, ranging from 1.0% to 8.0% (some annuities have enhanced first year crediting rates ranging from 1.0% to 7.0%), less expenses, mortality charges, and withdrawals; and (iii) fair value adjustment.

The balances and changes in policyholders' account balances for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the period from May 25, 2022 through December 31, 2022 were as follows (in thousands):

Note 21 – Reinsurance

American National reinsures portions of certain life insurance policies to provide a greater diversification of risk and manage exposure on larger risks. For the Property and Casualty segment during 2023, American National retained the first $2.0 million of loss per risk. Reinsurance covered up to $6.0 million of property and liability losses per risk. Additional excess property per risk coverage was purchased to cover risks up to $20.0 million, and excess casualty clash coverage was purchased to cover losses up to $60.0 million. Excess casualty clash covered losses incurred as a result of one casualty event involving multiple policies, excess policy limits and extra contractual obligations. Facultative reinsurance was purchased for individual risks attaching at $20.0 million as needed. Corporate catastrophe coverage was in place for losses up to $500.0 million.

American National remains primarily liable with respect to any reinsurance ceded and would bear the entire loss if the reinsurer does not meet their obligations under any reinsurance treaties. Coverage is placed with reinsurers that are at least A- rated by AM Best or S&P, and the contracts include downgrade triggers allowing for American National to terminate coverage if certain credit related events for a particular reinsurer take place. American National had the following recoverables from reinsurance, net of allowance for credit losses (in thousands):

	December 31,
	2023		2022
Reinsurance recoverables	$	426,911	$	444,170

None of the amount outstanding at December 31, 2023 is the subject of litigation or is in dispute with the reinsurers involved. Management believes the unfavorable resolution of any dispute that may arise likely would not have a material impact on American National’s consolidated financial statements.

The amounts in the consolidated financial statements include the impact of reinsurance. Premiums written and earned and Policyholder benefits and claims are shown below (in thousands):

Note 22 – Pension and Postretirement Benefits

Savings Plans

American National sponsors a qualified defined contribution (401(k) plan) for all employees, and non-qualified defined contribution plans for certain employees whose otherwise eligible earnings exceed the statutory limits under the qualified plans. The total expense associated with matching contributions to these plans was $11.8 million, $11.6 million and $10.8 million for 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Pension Benefits

American National sponsors qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans, all of which have been frozen. As such, no additional benefits are accrued through these plans for additional years of service credit or future salary increase credit, and no new participants are added to the plans. Benefits earned by eligible employees prior to the plans being frozen have not been affected.

The qualified pension plans are noncontributory. The plans provide benefits for salaried and management employees and corporate clerical employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement based on years of service and employee compensation. The non-qualified pension plans cover key employees and restore benefits that would otherwise be curtailed by statutory limits on qualified plan benefits.

American National’s funding policy for the qualified pension plans is to make annual contributions to meet the minimum funding standards of the Pension Protection Act of 2006. American National and its affiliates did not contribute to its qualified plans in 2023 and 2022 due to the substantial contribution over minimum funding standards of $60.0 million made in 2018. The benefits paid from the non-qualified plans were $11.8 million and $4.9 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. Future payments from the non-qualified pension benefit plans will be funded out of general corporate assets.

Note 22 – Pension and Postretirement Benefits - (Continued)

The investment policy for the retirement plan assets is designed to provide the highest return commensurate with sound and prudent underwriting practices. The investment diversification goals are to have investments in cash and cash equivalents as necessary for liquidity, debt securities up to 100% and equity securities up to 75% of the total invested plan assets. The amount invested in any particular investment is limited based on credit quality, and no single investment may at the time of purchase be more than 5% of the total invested assets.

The corporate debt securities category are investment grade bonds of U.S. and foreign issuers denominated and payable in U.S. dollars from diverse industries, with a maturity of 1 to 30 years. Foreign bonds in the aggregate shall not exceed 20% of the bond portfolio. Residential mortgage-backed securities represent asset-backed securities with a maturity date of 1 to 30 years with a Level 1 or 2 rating.

Equity portfolio managers have discretion to choose the degree of concentration in various issues and industry sectors for the equity securities. Permitted securities are those for which there is an active market providing liquidity for the specific security. Commercial paper investments generally have a credit rating of A2 by Moody’s or P2 by Standard & Poor’s with at least BBB rating on the issuer’s outstanding debt, or selected issuers with no outstanding debt.

Postretirement Life and Health Benefits

Under American National’s various group benefit plans for active employees, life insurance benefits are provided upon retirement for eligible participants who meet certain age and length of service requirements.

The accrued postretirement benefit obligation, included in the liability for retirement benefits, was $7.9 million and $7.4 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These amounts were approximately equal to the unfunded accumulated postretirement benefit obligation.

Note 23 – Segment Information

Management organizes the business into four operating segments:

•

Life—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.

•

Annuity—consists of fixed, indexed, and variable annuity products. Products are primarily sold through independent agents, brokers, and financial institutions, along with multiple-line and career agents.

•

Property and Casualty—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.

•

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.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. All revenues and expenses specifically attributable to policy transactions are recorded directly to the appropriate operating segment. Revenues and expenses not specifically attributable to policy transactions are allocated to each segment as follows:

•

Recurring income from bonds and mortgage loans is allocated based on the assets allocated to each segment at the average yield available from these assets.

•

Net investment income from all other assets is allocated to the insurance segments in accordance with the amount of capital allocated to each segment, with the remainder recorded in the Corporate and Other segment.

•

Expenses are charged to segments through direct identification and allocations based upon various factors.

The key measure used by the CODM in assessing performance and in making resource allocation decisions is Income before federal income tax and other items.

The following summarizes total assets by operating segments (in thousands):

Net investment income from fixed income assets (bonds and mortgage loans on real estate) is allocated to insurance lines based on the funds generated by each line at the average yield available from these fixed income assets at the time such funds become available. Net investment income from policy loans is allocated to the insurance lines according to the amount of loans made by each line. Net investment income from all other assets is allocated to the insurance lines as necessary to support the equity assigned to that line with the remainder allocated to capital and surplus.

⁽²⁾	Expenses are charged to segments through direct identification and allocations based on various factors.
