Corporation and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation Loews Corporation is a holding company. Its consolidated operating subsidiaries are engaged in the following lines of business: commercial property and casualty insurance (CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), a 91.7 % owned subsidiary); transportation and storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids (Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (“Boardwalk Pipelines”), a wholly owned subsidiary) and the operation of a chain of hotels (Loews Hotels Holding Corporation (“Loews Hotels & Co”), a wholly owned subsidiary). Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the term “Company” means Loews Corporation including its subsidiaries, the term “Parent Company” means Loews Corporation excluding its subsidiaries and the term “Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation” means Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation shareholders. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and changes in shareholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, in each case in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company presents basic and diluted net income (loss) per share on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Basic net income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 there were no shares attributable to employee stock-based compensation awards excluded from the diluted weighted average shares outstanding amounts because the effect would have been antidilutive. Accounting changes – In August of 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-12, “Financial Services – Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.” The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the measurement and disclosure of long-duration contracts. Entities are required to review, and update if there is a change, cash flow assumptions (including morbidity and persistency) used to measure the liability for future policyholder benefits (“LFPB”) at least annually. The LFPB must also be updated for actual experience at least annually. The LFPB is reflected as Insurance reserves: Future policy benefits on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The discount rate assumption used to measure the LFPB must be updated quarterly using an upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed-income instrument yield, commonly interpreted as a single-A rate. The effect of changes in cash flow assumptions and actual variances from expected experience are recorded in results of operations within Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits. The effect of changes in discount rate assumptions are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”). In contrast, under legacy accounting guidance, cash flow and discount rate assumptions were locked in unless a premium deficiency emerged. The discount rate assumption under legacy accounting guidance was determined using CNA’s internal investment portfolio yield, which was generally higher than a single-A yield. The new guidance eliminates the need to hold shadow reserves associated with long term care reserves. Under legacy accounting guidance, to the extent that unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities supporting long term care reserves would have resulted in a premium deficiency if realized, a related increase to Insurance reserves was recorded, net of tax, as a reduction of net unrealized gains (losses), through Other comprehensive income (loss) (shadow reserves). The unit of account is the level at which reserves are measured. Under the new guidance, the unit of account used to measure the LFPB is the cohort. Cohorts are comprised of insurance contracts issued no more than one year apart, and must be further disaggregated according to policy benefit and insurance risk characteristics. Under legacy accounting guidance, the LFPB was generally measured at the individual policy level. 9 Table of contents Under the new guidance, the net premium ratio (“NPR”) is capped at 100%. To the extent that NPR would otherwise exceed 100%, the LFPB is increased, and a loss is recognized immediately in the results of operations. The NPR cap is applied at the cohort level each quarter when NPR is updated. In contrast, under legacy accounting guidance, premium deficiency testing was performed annually at the product level. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for further explanation of the NPR and LFPB calculations. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective method applied as of the transition date of January 1, 2021. CNA’s run-off long term care business is in scope of the new guidance. All prior periods presented in the financial statements have been adjusted to reflect application of the new guidance. The original locked in discount rate, utilized for purposes of calculating the NPR under the new guidance, was based on the discount rate assumption used to calculate the LFPB immediately prior to the transition date. While the requirements of the new guidance represent a material change from legacy accounting, the new guidance does not impact capital and surplus under statutory accounting practices, cash flows or the underlying economics of the business. In December of 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-05, “Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944): Transition for Sold Contracts” (“ASU 2022-05”). This guidance permits companies to make an election to exclude from the scope of ASU 2018-12 any insurance contracts that have been de-recognized prior to the effective date of ASU 2018-12, assuming that the company has no significant continuing involvement with the de-recognized contracts. In the fourth quarter of 2022, CNA novated its block of legacy annuity business, which was fully-ceded prior to novation. The Company has elected the ASU 2022-05 transition relief, and has excluded the novated legacy annuity business from the scope of ASU 2018-12. Explanation of ASU 2018-12 Transition Impacts: The following table presents a roll-forward of the pre-transition LFPB balance as of January 1, 2021: (In millions) Balance as of December 31, 2020, as reported $ 13,318 Reclassification of reserves for policyholders currently receiving benefits to Future policy benefits (a) 2,844 De-recognition of shadow reserves ( 3,293 ) Re-measurement using an upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yield discount rate 6,255 Other adjustments 8 Balance as of January 1, 2021, as adjusted $ 19,132 (a) In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2018-12 , at January 1, 2023, the long term care reserves for policyholders currently receiving benefits were reclassified from Claim and claim adjustment expense to Future policy benefits. This change was applied retrospectively as of January 1, 2021. Shadow reserves associated with the long term care business were de-recognized as of the transition date in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). The effect of re-measuring the LFPB at the single-A discount rate as of the transition date was similarly recorded in AOCI. There are no cohorts for which the NPR exceeded 100% at the transition date. CNA’s practice under legacy accounting guidance was to calculate and record premium deficiency reserves at the policy level. Accordingly, an allocation methodology was not required to assign historical premium deficiency reserves to cohorts upon transition to ASU 2018-12. 10 Table of contents The following table presents after tax adjustments to the opening balance of Shareholders’ equity and Noncontrolling interests resulting from adoption of ASU 2018-12: Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) Retained earnings Noncontrolling interests (In millions) Balance as of December 31, 2020, as reported $ 581 $ 14,150 $ 1,321 De-recognition of shadow reserves 2,331 270 Re-measurement of LFPB using an upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yield discount rate ( 4,428 ) ( 513 ) Other adjustments ( 5 ) ( 1 ) Balance as of January 1, 2021, as adjusted $ ( 1,516 ) $ 14,145 $ 1,077 The effects of adoption of ASU 2018-12 on the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 As Reported Effect of Adoption As Adjusted (In millions) Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits (a) $ 1,665 $ 215 $ 1,880 Income (loss) before income tax 190 ( 215 ) ( 25 ) Income tax expense ( 47 ) 45 ( 2 ) Net income (loss) 143 ( 170 ) ( 27 ) Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests ( 13 ) 18 5 Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation 130 ( 152 ) ( 22 ) Basic net income (loss) per share 0.54 ( 0.63 ) ( 0.09 ) Diluted net income (loss) per share 0.54 ( 0.63 ) ( 0.09 ) (a) The effect of adopting ASU 2018-12 on Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits is inclusive of the re-measurement loss of $ 211 million, which is presented parenthetically on the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations.

The net loss of $ 35 million was comprised of a $ 59 million loss on the fixed maturity securities supporting the funds withheld liability to recognize unrealized losses which had been included in AOCI since the inception of the coinsurance agreement, partially offset by a $ 24 million gain on the associated embedded derivative. Taken together, this net loss was the final recognition of changes in the valuation of the funds held assets and offsets previously recognized net investment gains on the associated embedded derivative. The coinsurance agreement was novated in the fourth quarter of 2022. The components of available-for-sale impairment losses (gains) recognized in earnings by asset type are presented in the following table. The table includes losses (gains) on securities with an intention to sell and changes in the allowance for credit losses on securities since acquisition date: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 (In millions) Fixed maturity securities available-for-sale: Corporate and other bonds $ 8 $ 24 $ 25 $ 53 Asset-backed 4 1 12 2 Impairment losses recognized in earnings $ 12 $ 25 $ 37 $ 55 T here were $ 5 million and $ 11 million of losses recognized on mortgage loans during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to changes in expected credit losses.

In reaching this determination, the continued volatility in risk-free rates and credit spreads, as well as the fact that the unrealized losses are concentrated in investment grade issuers, were considered. Additionally, there is no current intent to sell securities with unrealized losses, nor is it more likely than not that sale will be required prior to recovery of amortized cost; accordingly, it was determined that there are no additional impairment losses to be recorded as of September 30, 2023. The following tables present the activity related to the allowance on available-for-sale securities with credit impairments and purchased credit-deteriorated (“PCD”) assets. Accrued interest receivables on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities totaled $ 430 million, $ 394 million and $ 401 million as of September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 and are excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses and the amortized cost basis in the tables within this Note. 18 Table of contents Three months ended September 30, 2023 Corporate and Other Bonds Asset-backed Total (In millions) Allowance for credit losses: Balance as of July 1, 2023 $ 13 $ 9 $ 22 Additions to the allowance for credit losses: Securities for which credit losses were not previously recorded 5 5 Available-for-sale securities accounted for as PCD assets 2 2 Reductions to the allowance for credit losses: Write-offs charged against the allowance 15 15 Additional increases to the allowance for credit losses on securities that had an allowance recorded in a previous period 4 4 Total allowance for credit losses $ 5 $ 13 $ 18 Three months ended September 30, 2022 Corporate and Other Bonds Asset-backed Total (In millions) Allowance for credit losses: Balance as of July 1, 2022 $ — $ 5 $ 5 Additional decreases to the allowance for credit losses on securities that had an allowance recorded in a previous period ( 2 ) ( 2 ) Total allowance for credit losses $ — $ 3 $ 3 Nine months ended September 30, 2023 Allowance for credit losses: Balance as of January 1, 2023 $ — $ 1 $ 1 Additions to the allowance for credit losses: Securities for which credit losses were not previously recorded 6 7 13 Available-for-sale securities accounted for as PCD assets 22 22 Reductions to the allowance for credit losses: Securities sold during the period (realized) 6 6 Intent to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis 3 3 Write-offs charged against the allowance 15 15 Additional increases to the allowance for credit losses on securities that had an allowance recorded in a previous period 1 5 6 Total allowance for credit losses $ 5 $ 13 $ 18 19 Table of contents Nine months ended September 30, 2022 Allowance for credit losses: Balance as of January 1, 2022 $ 11 $ 7 $ 18 Additions to the allowance for credit losses: Available-for-sale securities accounted for as PCD assets 3 3 Reductions to the allowance for credit losses: Write-offs charged against the allowance 12 12 Additional increases or (decreases) to the allowance for credit losses on securities that had an allowance recorded in a previous period 1 ( 7 ) ( 6 ) Total allowance for credit losses $ — $ 3 $ 3 Contractual Maturity The following table presents available-for-sale fixed maturity securities by contractual maturity.

fair value measurement of Level 3 assets. Valuations for assets and liabilities not presented in the tables below are primarily based on broker/dealer quotes for which there is a lack of transparency as to inputs used to develop the valuations. The quantitative detail of unobservable inputs from these broker quotes is neither provided nor reasonably available. The weighted average rate is calculated based on fair value. September 30, 2023 Estimated Fair Value Valuation Techniques Unobservable Inputs Range (Weighted Average) (In millions) Fixed maturity securities $ 1,359 Discounted cash flow Credit spread 1 % — 7 % ( 2 %) December 31, 2022 Fixed maturity securities $ 1,177 Discounted cash flow Credit spread 1 % — 8 % ( 2 %) For fixed maturity securities, an increase to the credit spread assumptions would result in a lower fair value measurement. Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value The carrying amount, estimated fair value and the level of the fair value hierarchy of the financial assets and liabilities which are not measured at fair value on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets are presented in the following tables. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of short term debt and long term debt exclude finance lease obligations. The carrying amounts reported on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets for cash and short term investments not carried at fair value and certain other assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to the short term nature of these items.

Claim and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves Claim and claim adjustment expense reserves represent the estimated amounts necessary to resolve all outstanding claims, including incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims as of the reporting date. Reserve projections are based primarily on detailed analysis of the facts in each case, experience with similar cases and various historical development patterns. Consideration is given to historical patterns such as claim reserving trends and settlement practices, loss payments, pending levels of unpaid claims and product mix, as well as court decisions and economic conditions, economic, medical and social inflation, and public attitudes. All of these factors can affect the estimation of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves. Establishing claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, including claim and claim adjustment expense reserves for catastrophic events that have occurred, is an estimation process. Many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the necessary reserve. Changes in the law, results of litigation, medical costs, the cost of repair materials and labor rates can affect ultimate claim costs. In addition, time can be a critical part of reserving determinations since the longer the span between the incidence of a loss and the payment or settlement of the claim, the more variable the ultimate settlement amount can be. Accordingly, short-tail claims, such as property damage claims, tend to be more reasonably estimable than long-tail claims, such as workers’ compensation, general liability and professional liability claims. Claim and claim adjustment expense reserves are also maintained for structured settlement obligations. In developing the claim and claim adjustment expense reserve estimates for structured settlement obligations, actuaries review mortality experience on an annual basis. Adjustments to prior year reserve estimates, if necessary, are reflected in the results of operations in the period that the need for such adjustments is determined. There can be no assurance that the ultimate cost for insurance losses will not exceed current estimates. Catastrophes are an inherent risk of the property and casualty insurance business and have contributed to material period-to-period fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations and/or equity. The Company reported catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, of $ 94 million and $ 114 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $ 214 million and $ 171 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Catastrophe losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were driven primarily by severe weather related events. Catastrophe losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were driven primarily by severe weather related events, including $ 87 million for Hurricane Ian. 27 Table of contents Liability for Unpaid Claim and Claim Adjustment Expenses The following table presents a reconciliation between beginning and ending claim and claim adjustment expense reserves. Nine Months Ended September 30 2023 2022 (a) (In millions) Reserves, beginning of year: Gross $ 22,120 $ 21,269 Ceded 5,191 4,969 Net reserves, beginning of year 16,929 16,300 Net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses: Provision for insured events of current year 4,221 3,830 Increase (decrease) in provision for insured events of prior years 43 ( 4 ) Amortization of discount 33 33 Total net incurred (b) 4,297 3,859 Net payments attributable to: Current year events ( 588 ) ( 482 ) Prior year events ( 2,953 ) ( 2,700 ) Total net payments ( 3,541 ) ( 3,182 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment and other ( 30 ) ( 383 ) Net reserves, end of period 17,655 16,594 Ceded reserves, end of period 5,181 5,147 Gross reserves, end of period $ 22,836 $ 21,741 (a) In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2018-12, at January 1, 2023, long term care reserves for policyholders currently receiving benefits were reclassified from Claim and claim adjustment expenses into Future policy benefits and this change was applied retrospectively as of January 1, 2021. For additional information see Note 1. (b) Total net incurred above does not agree to Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits as reflected on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations due to amounts related to retroactive reinsurance deferred gain accounting and uncollectible reinsurance, which are not reflected in the table above. Net Prior Year Development Changes in estimates of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, net of reinsurance, for prior years are defined as net prior year loss reserve development. These changes can be favorable or unfavorable. Favorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 7 million and $ 17 million was recorded for CNA’s commercial property and casualty operations (“Property & Casualty Operations”) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and favorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 11 million and $ 66 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 20 million was recorded for CNA’s operations outside of Property & Casualty Operations (“Other Insurance Operations”) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 55 million and $ 64 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. 28 Table of contents The following table and discussion present details of the net prior year loss reserve development in Property & Casualty Operations and Other Insurance Operations: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 (In millions) Medical professional liability $ 8 $ 9 $ 17 Other professional liability and management liability $ 17 9 16 22 Surety ( 21 ) ( 20 ) ( 28 ) ( 48 ) Commercial auto 11 21 General liability 70 41 Workers’ compensation ( 2 ) ( 2 ) ( 100 ) ( 86 ) Warranty ( 2 ) ( 13 ) ( 11 ) ( 22 ) Property and other 1 1 22 ( 11 ) Other insurance operations 20 55 64 Total pretax (favorable) unfavorable development $ 13 $ ( 17 ) $ 44 $ ( 2 ) Three Months 2023 Unfavorable development in other professional liability and management liability was primarily due to higher than expected claim severity and frequency in CNA’s cyber and professional errors and omissions (“E&O”) businesses in multiple accident years. Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected frequency and lack of systemic activity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was primarily driven by higher than expected frequency and severity in legacy mass tort abuse claims in older accident years. 2022 Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected loss emergence in multiple accident years and lack of systemic activity in recent accident years. Nine Months 2023 Unfavorable development in other professional liability and management liability was primarily due to higher than expected claim severity and frequency in CNA’s cyber and professional E&O businesses in multiple accident years. Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected frequency and lack of systemic activity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in general liability was due to higher than expected claim severity in CNA’s construction and middle market businesses across multiple accident years. Favorable development in workers’ compensation was due to favorable medical trends driving lower than expected severity in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in property and other was due to higher than expected large loss emergence in CNA’s professional liability business in accident year 2017. 29 Table of contents Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was primarily driven by higher than expected frequency and severity in legacy mass tort abuse claims in older accident years. 2022 Unfavorable development in medical professional liability was due to higher than expected large loss activity in recent accident years. Unfavorable development in other professional liability and management liability was due to higher than expected claim severity and frequency in CNA’s cyber and professional E&O businesses in multiple accident years. Favorable development in surety was primarily due to lower than expected frequency and lack of systemic activity in recent accident years. Unfavorable development in commercial auto was due to higher than expected claim severity in CNA’s construction business in multiple accident years. Unfavorable development in general liability was due to higher than expected claim severity in CNA’s construction , middle market and small businesses across multiple accident years. Favorable development in workers’ compensation was due to favorable medical trends driving lower than expected severity in multiple accident years. Favorable development in warranty was due to lower than expected loss emergence in a recent accident year. Unfavorable development in other insurance operations was largely associated with legacy mass tort abuse claims, including the Diocese of Rochester proposed settlement. Asbestos & Environmental Pollution (“A&EP”) Reserves In 2010, Continental Casualty Company (“CCC”) together with several insurance subsidiaries completed a transaction with National Indemnity Company (“NICO”), a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., under which substantially all of their legacy A&EP liabilities were ceded to NICO through a loss portfolio transfer (“LPT”). At the effective date of the transaction, approximately $ 1.6 billion of net A&EP claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves were ceded to NICO under a retroactive reinsurance agreement with an aggregate limit of $ 4.0 billion. The $ 1.6 billion of claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves ceded to NICO was net of $ 1.2 billion of ceded claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserves under existing third party reinsurance contracts. The NICO LPT aggregate reinsurance limit also covers credit risk on the existing third party reinsurance related to these liabilities. NICO was paid a reinsurance premium of $ 2.0 billion and billed third party reinsurance receivables related to A&EP claims with a net book value of $ 215 million were transferred to NICO, resulting in total consideration of $ 2.2 billion. In years subsequent to the effective date of the LPT, adverse prior year development on A&EP reserves was recognized resulting in additional amounts ceded under the LPT. As a result, the cumulative amounts ceded under the LPT have exceeded the $ 2.2 billion consideration paid, resulting in the NICO LPT moving into a gain position, requiring retroactive reinsurance accounting. Under retroactive reinsurance accounting, this gain is deferred and only recognized in earnings in proportion to actual paid recoveries under the LPT. Over the life of the contract, there is no economic impact as long as any additional losses incurred are within the limit of the LPT. In a period in which a change in the estimate of A&EP reserves is recognized that increases or decreases the amounts ceded under the LPT, the proportion of actual paid recoveries to total ceded losses is affected and the change in the deferred gain is recognized in earnings as if the revised estimate of ceded losses was available at the effective date of the LPT. The effect of the deferred retroactive reinsurance benefit is recorded in Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The impact of the LPT on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations was the recognition of a retroactive reinsurance benefit of $ 15 million and $ 17 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $ 38 million and $ 40 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 . As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the cumulative amounts ceded under the LPT were $ 3.5 billion. The unrecognized deferred retroactive reinsurance benefit was $ 388 million and $ 425 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and is included within Other liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. NICO established a collateral trust account as security for its obligations under the LPT. The fair value of the collateral trust account was $ 2.3 billion as of September 30, 2023. In addition, Berkshire Hathaway Inc. guaranteed the payment 30 Table of contents obligations of NICO up to the aggregate reinsurance limit as well as certain of NICO’s performance obligations under the trust agreement. NICO is responsible for claims handling and billing and collection from third-party reinsurers related to A&EP claims. Credit Risk for Ceded Reserves The majority of CNA’s outstanding voluntary reinsurance receivables are due from reinsurers with financial strength ratings of A or higher. Receivables due from reinsurers with lower financial strength ratings are primarily due from captive reinsurers and are backed by collateral arrangements. 6. Future Policy Benefits Reserves Future policy benefits reserves are related to CNA’s run-off long term care business, which is included in Other Insurance Operations. The determination of Future policy benefits reserves requires management to make estimates and assumptions about expected policyholder experience over the remaining life of the policy. Since policies may be in force for several decades, these assumptions are subject to significant estimation risk. As a result of this variability, CNA’s future policy benefits reserves may be subject to material increases if actual experience develops adversely to its expectations. The LFPB is computed using the net level premium method, which incorporates cash flow assumptions and discount rate assumptions. Under the net level premium method, the LFPB is equal to the present value of future benefits and claim settlement expenses less the present value of future net premiums. Net premiums are equal to gross premiums multiplied by the NPR. The NPR is generally the ratio of the present value of benefits and expense payments to the present value of gross premiums, expected over the lifetime of the policy. As a result of the modified retrospective adoption of ASU 2018-12, the NPR calculation incorporates the original locked in discount rate and the reserve balance as of the transition date of January 1, 2021. The key cash flow assumptions used to estimate the LFPB are morbidity, persistency (inclusive of mortality), anticipated future premium rate increases and expenses. Morbidity is the frequency and severity of injury, illness, sickness and diseases contracted. Persistency is the percentage of policies remaining in force and can be affected by policy lapses, benefit reductions and death. Future premium rate increases are generally subject to regulatory approval, and therefore the exact timing and size of the approved rate increases are unknown. Expense assumptions relate to claim adjudication. The practical expedient that allows locking in the expense assumption has not been elected. The discount rate is determined using the upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yield curve. CNA has elected to update the NPR and the LFPB for actual experience on a quarterly basis. A quarterly assessment is also made as to whether evidence suggests that cash flow assumptions should be updated. Annually in the third quarter, actuarial analysis is performed on policyholder morbidity, persistency, premium rate increases and expense experience. This analysis, combined with judgment, informs the setting of updated cash flow assumptions used to estimate the LFPB. Actuarial analysis includes predictive modeling, actual to expected experience comparisons and trend analysis. Applicable industry research is also considered. The cash flow assumption updates for the third quarter of 2023 resulted in an $ 8 million pretax increase in the LFPB. Persistency updates were unfavorable due to revisions to lapse rates. Morbidity updates were favorable, driven by claim severity assumption updates, and there was a favorable impact from outperformance on premium rate assumptions. Adjusted to reflect the application of ASU 2018-12, the cash flow assumption updates for the third quarter of 2022 resulted in a $ 186 million pretax increase to the LFPB, primarily driven by the unfavorable impact of increased cost of care inflation offset by favorable premium rate assumptions. Quarterly, to derive the upper-medium grade fixed income instrument yield discount rate assumption, a published spot rate curve constructed from single-A rated U.S. dollar denominated corporate bonds is used. Linear interpolation is used to determine yield assumptions for tenors that fall between points for which observable rates are available. For cash flows that are projected to occur beyond the tenor for which market-observable rates are available, judgment is applied to estimate a normative rate which is graded to over 10 years. Quarterly, the updated NPR is used to derive an updated LFPB as of the beginning of the current quarter measured at the original locked in discount rate. The updated LFPB is then compared to the existing carrying amount of the liability as of the same date (measured at the original locked in discount rate) to determine the re-measurement gain (loss), which is 31 Table of contents presented parenthetically within the Insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits line on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Insurance contracts are grouped into cohorts according to issue year. Contracts assumed through reinsurance are generally included within the same cohorts as contracts issued directly by CNA, according to issue year. The issue year for assumed contracts is defined according to the date that the assumption of insurance risk incepted. For assumed contracts that were reinsured concurrently with the issuance of the underlying direct contract, issue year is defined as the year that the underlying policy was issued. For contracts that were already in-force when assumed, issue year is defined as the year in which the reinsurance agreement incepted. For group long term care business, issue year is defined as the year the individual insurance certificate was issued. Long term care is CNA’s only long-duration product line, therefore, cohorts are not further disaggregated by product.

Loews Corporation purchased 4.5 million shares of CNA’s common stock at an aggregate cost of $ 178 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. 8. Debt In June of 2023, Boardwalk Pipelines entered into an amendment to its revolving credit agreement, which extended the maturity date of its revolving credit facility from May 27, 2027 to May 26, 2028, while preserving the two one-year extensions that can be exercised at Boardwalk Pipelines’ election. The available borrowing capacity under the credit agreement will decrease from $ 1 billion to $ 912 million after May 27, 2027. In May of 2023 , CNA completed a public offering of $ 400 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.5 % senior notes due June 15, 2033 and in August of 2023, CNA completed a public offering of an additional $ 100 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.5 % senior notes due June 15, 2033. In May of 2023, Loews Corporation retired at maturity with available cash the outstanding $ 500 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.6 % senior notes. 9. Revenue from Contracts with Customers Disaggregation of revenues – Revenue from contracts with customers, other than insurance premiums, is reported as Non-insurance warranty revenue and within Operating revenues and other on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.

Deferred revenue – As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, deferred revenue resulting from contracts with customers was approximately $ 4.8 billion and is reported as Deferred non-insurance warranty revenue and within Other liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Approximately $ 905 million and $ 1.0 billion of revenues recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were included in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Performance obligations – As of September 30, 2023, approximately $ 14.0 billion of estimated operating revenues is expected to be recognized in the future related to outstanding performance obligations. The balance relates primarily to revenues for transportation and storage services for natural gas and natural gas liquids and other hydrocarbons (“NGLs”) at Boardwalk Pipelines and non-insurance warranty revenue at CNA. Approximately $ 0.8 billion will be recognized during 36 Table of contents the remaining three months of 2023 , $ 2.6 billion in 2024 and the remainder in following years. The actual timing of recognition may vary due to factors outside of the Company’s control. 10. Benefit Plans The Company has several non-contributory defined benefit plans and postretirement benefit plans covering eligible employees and retirees.

Legal Proceedings Boardwalk Pipelines Litigation On May 25, 2018, plaintiffs Tsemach Mishal and Paul Berger (on behalf of themselves and the purported class, “Plaintiffs”) initiated a purported class action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Trial Court”) against the following defendants: Boardwalk Pipelines, Boardwalk GP, LP (“General Partner”), Boardwalk GP, LLC and Boardwalk Pipelines Holding Corp. (“BPHC”) (together, “Defendants”), regarding the potential exercise by the General Partner of its right to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common units representing limited partnership interests in Boardwalk Pipelines not already owned by the General Partner or its affiliates. 37 Table of contents On June 25, 2018, Plaintiffs and Defendants entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement, subject to the approval of the Trial Court (the “Proposed Settlement”). Under the terms of the Proposed Settlement, the lawsuit would be dismissed, and related claims against the Defendants would be released by the Plaintiffs, if BPHC, the sole member of the General Partner, elected to cause the General Partner to exercise its right to purchase the issued and outstanding common units of Boardwalk Pipelines pursuant to Boardwalk Pipelines’ Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended (“Limited Partnership Agreement”), within a period specified by the Proposed Settlement. On June 29, 2018, the General Partner elected to exercise its right to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common units representing limited partnership interests in Boardwalk Pipelines not already owned by the General Partner or its affiliates pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement within the period specified by the Proposed Settlement. The transaction was completed on July 18, 2018. On September 28, 2018, the Trial Court denied approval of the Proposed Settlement. On February 11, 2019, a substitute verified class action complaint was filed in this proceeding, which among other things, added the Parent Company as a Defendant. The Defendants filed a motion to dismiss, which was heard by the Trial Court in July of 2019. In October of 2019, the Trial Court ruled on the motion and granted a partial dismissal, with certain aspects of the case proceeding to trial. A trial was held the week of February 22, 2021 and post-trial oral arguments were held on July 14, 2021. On November 12, 2021, the Trial Court issued a ruling in the case. The Trial Court held that the General Partner breached the Limited Partnership Agreement and awarded Plaintiffs approximately $ 690 million, plus pre-judgment interest (approximately $ 166 million), post-judgment interest and attorneys’ fees. The Company believed that the Trial Court ruling included factual and legal errors. Therefore, on January 3, 2022, the Defendants appealed the Trial Court’s ruling to the Supreme Court of the State of Delaware (the “Supreme Court”). On January 17, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed a cross-appeal to the Supreme Court contesting the calculation of damages by the Trial Court. Oral arguments were held on September 14, 2022, and on December 19, 2022, the Supreme Court reversed the Trial Court’s ruling and remanded the case to the Trial Court for further proceedings related to claims not decided by the Trial Court’s ruling. Briefing by the parties at the Trial Court on the remanded issues was completed in September 2023. Other Litigation The Company is from time to time party to other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While it is difficult to predict the outcome or effect of any litigation, management does not believe that the outcome of any pending litigation, including the Boardwalk Pipelines matter described above, will materially affect the Company’s results of operations or equity. 12. Commitments and Contingencies CNA Guarantees CNA has provided guarantees, if the primary obligor fails to perform, to holders of structured settlement annuities issued by a previously owned subsidiary. As of September 30, 2023, the potential amount of future payments CNA could be required to pay under these guarantees was approximately $ 1.5 billion, which will be paid over the lifetime of the annuitants. CNA does not believe any payment is likely under these guarantees, as CNA is the beneficiary of a trust that must be maintained at a level that approximates the discounted reserves for these annuities. 13. Segments Loews Corporation has four reportable segments comprised of three individual consolidated operating subsidiaries, CNA, Boardwalk Pipelines and Loews Hotels & Co; and the Corporate segment. The Corporate segment is primarily comprised of Loews Corporation, excluding its subsidiaries, and the equity method of accounting for Altium Packaging LLC. Each of the operating subsidiaries is headed by a chief executive officer who is responsible for the operation of its business and has the duties and authority commensurate with that position. For additional disclosures regarding the composition of Loews Corporation’s segments, see Note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The following tables present the reportable segments and their contribution to the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Amounts presented will not necessarily be the same as those in the individual financial statements of the subsidiaries due to adjustments for purchase accounting, income taxes and noncontrolling interests. 38 Table of contents Statements of Operations by segment are presented in the following tables.
