Investments in Unconsolidated affiliates
We have elected the fair value option for certain investments in unconsolidated affiliates as we believe this better aligns them with other investments in unconsolidated affiliates that are measured using NAV as a practical expedient in determining fair value.

+Added: The Monte Carlo simulation utilizes the outstanding principal balance, a risk-adjusted discount rate, and risk-free rates to discount the expected cash flows and compare to the estimated collateral value for each payment period and simulated path.
+Added: The discounted cash flow approach applies a company-specific discount rate to future expected interest and payoff payments to calculate the estimated fair value based on the average outcome from the simulation.
+Added: This loan receivable is included in Level 3 and the inputs are considered unobservable, as not all market participants have access to this data.
Other long-term investments

+Added: We hold a fund-linked note, which provides for an additional payment at maturity based on the value of an embedded derivative based on the actual return of a dedicated return fund.
Fair value of the embedded derivative is based on an unobservable input, the NAV of the fund at the balance sheet date.
−Removed: The embedded derivative is similar to a call option on the NAV of the fund with a strike price of zero since Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company ("FGL Insurance") will not be required to make any additional payments at maturity of the fund-linked note in order to receive the NAV of the fund on the maturity date.

+Added: These assumptions include estimates of prepayment rates, discount rates, cost to service (including delinquency and foreclosure costs), escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, and ancillary income.
+Added: Contingent Consideration
+Added: The contingent consideration is measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow model applied using a Monte Carlo simulation of estimated EBITDA at each measurement period and for each simulated path relative to contractual EBITDA milestones.
+Added: The Monte Carlo simulation utilizes a risk-adjusted discount rate, volatility assumption, and risk-free rates to assess the probability Roar's EBITDA trajectory reaches required milestones for the earn out payments to be made.
+Added: The discounted cash flow approach applies a company-specific discount rate based on F&G credit profile to future expected earn out payments to calculate the estimated fair value based on the average outcome from the simulation.
+Added: See further discussion on the contingent consideration in Note H Commitments and Contingencies.
+Added: MRBs (inclusive of reinsured MRBs) are measured at fair value using an attributed fee measurement approach where attributed fees are explicit rider charges collectible from the policyholder (or paid to the reinsurer) used to cover the excess benefits.
+Added: The fair value is calculated using a risk neutral valuation method and is based on current net amounts at risk, market data, internal and industry experience, and other factors.
+Added: The balances are computed using assumptions including mortality, full and partial surrender, rider benefit utilization, risk-free rates including non-performance spread and risk margin, market value of options and economic scenarios.
+Added: Policyholder behavior assumptions are reviewed at least annually, typically in the third quarter, for any revisions.
+Added: Reinsured MRBs are valued using a methodology consistent with direct MRBs, with the exception of the non-performance spread which reflects the credit of the reinsurer.

F&G realized actual-to-expected experience variances and made changes to assumptions during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 as follows:
Traditional life
+Added: The traditional life line of business primarily consists of policies that were sold prior to 2010.
+Added: As this line of business continues to age, benefit payments made from these contracts will be the primary driver of the emergence of reserves, decreasing the reserve balance.
Significant assumption inputs to the calculation of the FPB for traditional life include mortality, lapses (including lapses due to nonpayment of premium and surrenders for cash surrender value), and discount rates (both accretion and current).
We review the cash flow assumptions annually, typically in the third quarter.
+Added: In 2024, F&G made an adjustment to the calculation to reflect additional actuarial precision, unrelated to the assumptions, driving an increase to the FPB liability.
In 2023, F&G undertook a review of all significant assumptions and revised the lapse assumption, resulting in a slight decrease to the FPB.
There have been no other significant changes.
+Added: Market data that underlies current discount rates was updated in 2024 from that utilized in 2023 resulting in increased discount rates that drove a decrease to the FPB.
Market data that underlies current discount rates was updated in 2023 from that utilized in 2022, resulting in decreased discount rates that drove a material increase to the FPB.
−Removed: In 2022, F&G similarly undertook a review in the third quarter of the significant cash flow assumptions and did not make any changes to mortality or lapses.
−Removed: Market data that underlies current discount rates was updated from 2021 and increased significantly year-over-year, resulting in a material decrease to the FPB.
−Removed: Impacts to expected net premiums and expected FPBs due to discount rate changes in 2022 can be observed in the FPB roll forward tables at December 31, 2022.

−Removed: Impacts to expected FPBs due to assumption changes in 2022 can be observed in the FPB roll forward tables at December 31, 2022.
PRT (life contingent)
+Added: The PRT line of business has issued a significant volume of contracts for both 2024 and 2023, which is the primary impact in increasing the reserve balance in each of those periods.
Significant assumption inputs to the calculation of the FPB for PRT (life contingent) include mortality and discount rates (both accretion and current).
+Added: Additionally, for PRT contracts with deferred payment streams retirement age and elected payment form are significant assumptions.
We review the cash flow assumptions annually, typically in the third quarter.
−Removed: In 2023, F&G undertook a review of the significant cash flow assumptions and did not make any changes to mortality.
+Added: In 2024 and 2023, F&G undertook a review of the significant cash flow assumptions and did not make any changes to mortality.

Premium deficiency testing
3 unchanged sentences

−Removed: During 2023 and 2022, F&G was not required to establish any additional liabilities as a result of premium deficiency testing.
+Added: During 2024, F&G did not pass premium deficiency testing for the traditional life block of business, related to the recoverability of VOBA.
+Added: Due to that result, F&G began accruing a liability in the fourth quarter of 2024 that increases the amortization of traditional life VOBA.
+Added: The liability balance was immaterial at December 31, 2024.
+Added: During 2023, F&G was not required to establish any additional liabilities as a result of premium deficiency testing.
