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”), an approximately 92 % owned subsidiary); transportation and storage of natural gas and natural gas liquids, olefins and other hydrocarbons (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 addition, we own approximately 53 % of Altium Packaging LLC (“Altium Packaging”), an unconsolidated subsidiary accounted for under the equity method of accounting, which is engaged in the manufacture of rigid plastic packaging solutions.
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 March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and its results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 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, 2025.
The Company presents basic and diluted net income per share on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income 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 months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were 1.2 million shares attributable to employee stock-based compensation awards excluded from the diluted weighted average shares calculations because the effect would have been antidilutive.
Accounting Standards Pending Adoption - In November of 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” The updated accounting guidance requires disaggregated disclosure of specified expense categories. The guidance also requires disclosure of total selling expenses and how the Company defines selling expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on its financial statement disclosures.
In September of 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software.” The updated guidance changes the accounting for internal-use software by eliminating references to sequential project stages. Eligible software development cost capitalization will begin when: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the software will be completed and used as intended. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The guidance may be applied using a prospective transition method, a retrospective transition method or a modified prospective transition method. The Company does not currently expect the updated guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Based on current facts and circumstances, the unrealized losses presented in the March 31, 2026 securities in the gross unrealized loss position table above are not indicative of the ultimate collectability of the current amortized cost of the securities, but rather are primarily attributable to changes in risk-free interest rates. In reaching this determination, the 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 March 31, 2026.
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 receivable on available-for-sale fixed maturity securities totaled $ 477 million, $ 470 million and $ 456 million as of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025 and are excluded from the estimate of expected credit losses and the amortized cost basis in the tables within this Note.

Significant Unobservable Inputs
The following tables present quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs utilized in the 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.

4. 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, 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. Catastrophe-related reinstatement premiums represent additional consideration paid under certain reinsurance agreements to reinstate coverage limits that have been exhausted as a result of losses. Catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, of $ 88 million and catastrophe-related reinsurance reinstatement premiums of $ 9 million were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026, driven by severe weather-related events. Catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, of $ 97 million were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 , driven by severe weather-related events , including $ 53 million for the California wildfires. There were no catastrophe-related reinsurance reinstatement premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

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.
Unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 100 million and $ 61 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was recorded for CNA’s commercial property and casualty operations (“Property & Casualty Operations”). No net prior year loss reserve development and unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $ 22 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was recorded for CNA’s operations outside of Property & Casualty Operations (“Other Insurance Operations”).

The following table and discussion present details of the net prior year loss reserve development in Property & Casualty Operations and Other Insurance Operations:

General liability 55
Workers’ compensation 1
Total property & casualty operations 100 61
Other insurance operations 22
Total pretax unfavorable development $ 100 $ 83
2026
Unfavorable development in other professional liability and management liability was primarily due to higher than expected claim severity and frequency in CNA’s professional errors and omissions (“E&O”) business in recent accident years.
Unfavorable development in general liability was due to higher than expected claim severity and frequency in the excess casualty line in recent accident years.
2025
Unfavorable development in warranty was primarily due to higher than expected frequency and severity in the most recent accident year for auto warranty.
Unfavorable development in commercial auto was due to higher than expected claim severity, largely in CNA’s construction business in the most recent accident year.
Unfavorable development in Other insurance operations was associated with legacy mass tort abuse claim activity.
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.
21
Table of contents
The impact of the LPT on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations was the recognition of a retroactive reinsurance benefit of $ 22 million and $ 17 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 . As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the cumulative amounts ceded under the LPT were $ 3.9 billion. The unrecognized deferred retroactive reinsurance benefit was $ 448 million and $ 470 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 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 $ 2.6 billion as of March 31, 2026. In addition, Berkshire Hathaway Inc. guaranteed the payment 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.
5. Future Policy Benefits Reserves
Future policy benefits reserves are associated with CNA’s run-off long-term care business, which is included in Other Insurance Operations, and relate to policyholders that are currently receiving benefits, including claims that have been incurred but are not yet reported, as well as policyholders that are not yet receiving benefits. Future policy benefits reserves are comprised of the liability for future policyholder benefits (“LFPB”) which is reflected as Insurance reserves: Future policy benefits on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.
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.
For further information on the long-term care reserving process see Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

CNA sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan, the CNA Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), covering certain eligible employees. The Plan has been closed to new entrants since 2000. In the first quarter of 2026, a subsidiary of CNA, as sponsor of the Plan, approved the decision to pursue termination of the Plan, effective June 30, 2026. The Plan will continue to be reflected in the consolidated condensed financial statements until the termination process, including the settlement or transfer of remaining benefit obligations, has been completed, which CNA currently anticipates will be in approximately 18 months.

Loews Hotels & Co
On February 20, 2024, Jeanette Portillo and other plaintiffs filed a putative class action against Loews Hotels Holdings Corporation and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington asserting antitrust claims against defendants under the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1. Defendants jointly filed a motion to dismiss the complaint in Portillo on May 17, 2024. On August 29, 2025, the court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss in Portillo and granted plaintiffs leave to amend their complaint. On October 3, 2025, plaintiffs in Portillo filed an amended class action complaint, which defendants jointly moved to dismiss on November 3, 2025. The court has not ruled on the motion to dismiss the amended complaint in Portillo . On March 1, 2024, Ryan Segal filed a putative class action against Loews Hotels Holdings Corporation and other defendants in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois asserting antitrust claims against defendants under the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1. Defendants jointly filed a motion to dismiss the complaint in Segal on June 24, 2024. On March 31, 2025, the court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss in Segal , and granted plaintiff leave to amend the complaint. On April 28, 2025, Segal filed a third amended complaint, which defendants jointly moved to dismiss on June 12, 2025. On March 31, 2026, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the third amended complaint in Segal with prejudice and entered judgment. On April 29, 2026, Segal filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit of the district court’s March 31, 2026 order granting defendants’ motion to dismiss the third amended complaint.
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.
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
27
Table of contents
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. A hearing on the remanded issues was held at the Trial Court in April 2024. In September 2024, the Trial Court ruled in favor of the Defendants on all of the remanded issues.
On October 21, 2024, the Plaintiffs appealed the Trial Court’s ruling on the remanded issues to the Supreme Court. Briefing on this appeal was completed in March 2025 and a hearing on this appeal occurred in June 2025. On December 10, 2025, the Supreme Court affirmed in part and reversed in part the Trial Court’s ruling. In its decision the Supreme Court found that the General Partner had breached the Limited Partnership Agreement in its exercise of the Purchase Right. In its 2022 decision, the Supreme Court had previously determined that the General Partner was exculpated from damages. The remaining claims that have been remanded by the Supreme Court to the Trial Court for further proceedings are tortious interference and unjust enrichment claims related to the exercise of the Purchase Right against the non-General Partner defendants.
Litigation is inherently uncertain, and the ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be predicted with certainty. Based on currently available information, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the amount of loss or range of loss, if any, associated with this matter. Accordingly, no accrual has been recorded. Although the Company is unable to estimate the amount of loss or range of loss at this time, it is possible that the resolution of this matter could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows in a particular period. The Company will continue to evaluate developments in this matter and will record an accrual if it is determined that a loss is probable and reasonably estimable.
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 Loews Hotels & Co matters described above, will materially affect the Company’s results of operations or equity.
11. 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 March 31, 2026, the potential amount of future payments CNA could be required to pay under these guarantees was approximately $ 1.9 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.

Table of contents
Boardwalk Pipelines
Boardwalk Pipelines’ future capital commitments are comprised of binding commitments under purchase orders for materials ordered but not received. As of March 31, 2026, the commitments totaled approximately $ 467 million, which are expected to be settled through 2028.
12. 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 comprised of Loews Corporation, excluding its consolidated subsidiaries, and includes the equity method of accounting for Altium Packaging. 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 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, 2025.
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.

OVERVIEW
Loews Corporation is a holding company and has four reportable segments comprised of three individual consolidated operating subsidiaries, CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (“Boardwalk Pipelines”) and Loews Hotels Holding Corporation (“Loews Hotels & Co”); and the Corporate segment. The Corporate segment is primarily comprised of Loews Corporation, excluding its consolidated operating subsidiaries, and the equity method of accounting for Altium Packaging LLC (“Altium Packaging”), an unconsolidated subsidiary.
Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the term “Company” means Loews Corporation including its subsidiaries, the terms “Parent Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or like terms mean Loews Corporation excluding its subsidiaries and the term “Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation” means Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation shareholders.
We rely upon our invested cash balances and distributions from our subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet our obligations and to declare and pay any dividends to our shareholders. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends is subject to, among other things, the availability of sufficient earnings and funds in such subsidiaries, applicable state laws, including in the case of the insurance subsidiaries of CNA, laws and rules governing the payment of dividends by regulated insurance companies (see Note 14 of th e Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025) and compliance with covenants in their respective loan agreements. Claims of creditors of our subsidiaries will generally have priority as to the assets of such subsidiaries over our claims and those of our creditors and shareholders. We are not responsible for the liabilities and obligations of our subsidiaries and there are no Parent Company guarantees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated Financial Results
The following table summarizes net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation by segment and the basic and diluted net income per share attributable to Loews Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
Three Months Ended March 31 2026 2025

CNA Financial $ 194 $ 252
Boardwalk Pipelines 159 152
Loews Hotels & Co 26
Corporate (42) (34)
Net income attributable to Loews Corporation $ 337 $ 370
Basic and diluted net income per share $ 1.63 $ 1.74
Net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $337 million, or $1.63 per share, compared to net income of $370 million, or $1.74 per share in the comparable 2025 period.
The decrease in net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the comparable 2025 period was primarily driven by lower net income at CNA and lower results at the parent company, partially offset by higher net income at Loews Hotels & Co and Boardwalk Pipelines. The decrease at CNA is primarily due to lower underlying underwriting results and unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development, partially offset by higher net investment income. Parent company results decreased primarily due to lower investment income from the parent company trading portfolio and higher interest expense. The increase at Loews Hotels & Co is primarily due to higher equity income from joint ventures, driven mainly by the Universal Orlando Resort joint ventures. The increase at Boardwalk Pipelines is primarily due to higher contracting rates and utilization-based revenues on gas transportation, as well as higher rates on storage, parking and lending.

CNA’s Property & Casualty and Other Insurance Operations
CNA’s commercial property and casualty insurance operations (“Property & Casualty Operations”) include its Specialty, Commercial and International lines of business. CNA’s Other Insurance Operations outside of Property & Casualty Operations include its long-term care business that is in run-off, certain corporate expenses, including interest on CNA’s corporate debt, and the results of certain property and casualty businesses in run-off, including asbestos and environmental pollution (“A&EP”), a legacy portfolio of excess workers’ compensation (“EWC”) policies and certain legacy mass tort reserves. We believe the presentation of CNA as one reportable segment is appropriate in accordance with applicable accounting standards on segment reporting. However, for purposes of this discussion and analysis of the results of operations, we provide greater detail with respect to CNA’s Property & Casualty Operations and Other Insurance Operations to enhance the reader’s understanding and to provide further transparency into key drivers of CNA’s financial results.
In assessing its insurance operations, CNA utilizes the core income (loss) financial measure. Core income (loss) is calculated by excluding investment gains or losses and gains or losses resulting from pension settlement transactions from net income (loss). In addition, core income (loss) excludes the effects of noncontrolling interests. The calculation of core income (loss) excludes investment gains or losses because they are generally driven by economic factors that are not necessarily reflective of CNA’s primary insurance operations. The calculation of core income (loss) excludes gains or losses resulting from pension settlement transactions as they result from decisions regarding CNA’s defined benefit pension plans which are unrelated to its primary insurance operations. Core income (loss) is deemed to be a non-GAAP

Table of contents
financial measure and management believes some investors may find this measure useful to evaluate CNA’s insurance operations. Please see the non-GAAP reconciliation of net income (loss) to core income (loss) in this MD&A.
In evaluating the results of Property & Casualty Operations CNA utilizes the loss ratio, the underlying loss ratio, the expense ratio, the dividend ratio, the combined ratio and the underlying combined ratio. These ratios are calculated using GAAP financial results. The loss ratio is the percentage of net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The underlying loss ratio excludes the impact of catastrophe-related reinstatement premiums, catastrophe losses and development-related items from the loss ratio. Development-related items represent net prior year loss reserve and premium development, and includes the effects of interest accretion and change in allowance for uncollectible reinsurance. The expense ratio is the percentage of insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholders’ dividends incurred to net earned premiums. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the dividend ratio. The underlying combined ratio is the sum of the underlying loss ratio, the expense ratio and the dividend ratio. The underlying loss ratio and the underlying combined ratio are deemed to be non-GAAP financial measures, and management believes some investors may find these ratios useful to evaluate CNA’s underwriting performance since they remove the impact of catastrophes which are unpredictable as to timing and amount, and development-related items as they are not indicative of current year underwriting performance.
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 within this MD&A. These changes can be favorable or unfavorable. Net prior year loss reserve development does not include the effect of any related acquisition expenses. Further information on CNA’s reserves is provided in Notes 4 and 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included under Item 1 of this Report.
In addition, renewal premium change, rate, retention and new business are also utilized in evaluating operating trends. Renewal premium change represents the estimated change in average premium on policies that renew, including rate and exposure changes. Rate represents the average change in price on policies that renew excluding exposure change. Exposure represents the measure of risk used in the pricing of the insurance product. The change in exposure represents the change in premium dollars on policies that renew as a result of the change in risk of the policy. Retention represents the percentage of premium dollars renewed, excluding rate and exposure changes, in comparison to the expiring premium dollars from policies available to renew. New business represents premiums from policies written with new customers and additional policies written with existing customers.
CNA also uses underwriting gain (loss) and underlying underwriting gain (loss), calculated using GAAP financial results, to monitor insurance operations. Underwriting gain (loss) is deemed to be a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated pretax as net earned premiums less total insurance expenses, which includes insurance claims and policyholders’ benefits, amortization of deferred acquisition costs and insurance related administrative expenses. Net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes some investors may find this measure useful to evaluate the profitability, before tax, derived from CNA’s underwriting activities, which are managed separately from its investing activities. Underlying underwriting gain (loss) is also deemed to be a non-GAAP financial measure, and represents pretax underwriting gain (loss) excluding catastrophe-related reinstatement premiums, catastrophe losses and development-related items. Management believes some investors may find this measure useful to evaluate the profitability, before tax, derived from CNA’s underwriting activities, excluding the impact of catastrophes, which are unpredictable as to timing and amount, and development-related items as they are not indicative of CNA’s current year underwriting performance.

Net written premiums for Commercial decreased $18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period driven by lower retention. The increase in net earned premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was consistent with the trend in net written premiums in recent quarters for Commercial.
Net written premiums for International increased $42 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period. Excluding the effect of foreign currency exchange rates, net written premiums increased $19 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period driven by timing of reinsurance costs, partially offset by lower rate. The increase in net earned premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was consistent with the trend in net written premiums for International.
Core income for Property & Casualty Operations decreased $63 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period primarily driven by lower underlying underwriting results and unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development, partially offset by higher net investment income.
Catastrophe losses for Property & Casualty Operations were $88 million and catastrophe-related reinsurance reinstatement premiums were $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 driven by severe weather related events. Catastrophe losses were $97 million for the comparable 2025 period, driven by severe weather related events, including $53 million for the California wildfires. There were no catastrophe-related reinsurance reinstatement premiums for the three months ended March 31, 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, Specialty had no catastrophe losses, Commercial had catastrophe losses of $84 million and $86 million and International had catastrophe losses of $4 million and $11 million. The three months ended March 31, 2026 also includes $9 million of catastrophe-related reinsurance reinstatement premiums for Commercial.
Unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development for Property & Casualty Operations of $100 million and $61 million was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, Specialty recorded unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $45 million and $10 million, Commercial recorded unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development of $55 million and $51 million and International recorded no net prior year loss reserve development. Further information on net prior year loss reserve development is included in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included under Item 1 of this Report.
Specialty’s combined ratio increased 7.6 points for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period primarily due to a 7.3 point increase in the loss ratio. The increase in the loss ratio was due to higher unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development driven by CNA’s professional errors and omissions (“E&O”) business in recent accident years and an increase in the underlying loss ratio driven by loss cost trends exceeding rate for certain lines in recent quarters. The expense ratio was generally consistent with the comparable 2025 period.
Commercial’s combined ratio increased 2.4 points for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period primarily due to a 3.2 point increase in the loss ratio partially offset by a 0.9 point improvement in the expense ratio. The increase in the loss ratio was driven by a higher underlying loss ratio in excess casualty and workers’ compensation. The improvement in the expense ratio was primarily driven by a lower acquisition ratio. The effect of catastrophe impacts on the loss ratio was 6.4 points for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with 6.3 points for the comparable 2025 period.
International’s combined ratio increased 0.5 points for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period due to a 1.6 point increase in the expense ratio, partially offset by a 1.1 point improvement in the loss ratio. The increase in the expense ratio was primarily driven by higher employee related costs and acquisition costs partially offset by higher net earned premiums. The improvement in the loss ratio was primarily driven by lower catastrophe losses, which were 1.2 points of the loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with 3.6 points of the loss ratio for the comparable 2025 period, partially offset by an increase in the underlying loss ratio driven by continued pricing pressure.

Core results for Other Insurance Operations improved $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to no net prior year loss reserve development in the current year as compared with a $17 million after-tax charge in 2025 related to unfavorable net prior year loss reserve development largely associated with legacy mass tort abuse reserves. Core loss also includes amortization of the deferred gain related to the asbestos and environmental pollution (“A&EP”) loss portfolio transfer (“LPT”). Further information on the net prior year loss reserve development and the A&EP LPT is included in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included under Item 1 of this Report. Long-term care results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect unfavorable morbidity partially offset by favorable persistency. Long-term care results for the comparable 2025 period reflected favorable persistency.

Boardwalk Pipelines
Current Growth Projects
Boardwalk Pipelines regularly reviews opportunities to expand its existing facilities and footprint to meet growing demand for transportation and storage services. The recent growth of liquefied natural gas export and power generation demand has led to the announcement of additional growth projects for Boardwalk Pipelines. Through the date of this filing, Boardwalk Pipelines has growth projects for which it has executed precedent or long-term firm transportation agreements that are expected to increase capacity on its pipeline systems by an aggregate of 4.2 billion cubic feet per day (“Bcf/d”) and its storage working gas capacity by 10 Bcf at an expected aggregate cost of approximately $3.2 billion and are scheduled to be completed through 2030. As of March 31, 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines has spent $245 million on these growth projects. These projects remain contingent upon, among other things, the receipt of required regulatory approvals and permits and are subject to construction risk.
These projects have lengthy planning and construction periods and, as a result, will not contribute to Boardwalk Pipelines’ earnings and cash flows until they receive the required regulatory approvals and permits and are constructed and placed into service over the next several years. F or further discussion of capital expenditures and financing, please see Liquidity and Capital Resources: Subsidiaries of this MD&A. Boardwalk Pipelines’ cost and timing estimates for these projects are based on a variety of inputs such as contractor indicativ e bids, quotes on materials and internally-developed financial models, metrics and timelines and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, including obtaining timely regulatory and permit approvals and the cost thereof, adverse weather conditions during construction, its ability to acquire and the cost of obtaining rights to construct and operate on land not owned by Boardwalk Pipelines, delays in obtaining and shortages and price increases for key materials (including pipe, compressor facilities and related equipment), tariff implications and shortages and increased costs of qualified labor. Factors in the estimates include, among other things, those related to pipeline costs based on mileage, size and type of pipe, materials including compressors and related equipment, land, engineering and construction costs and timely receipt of all necessary permits and approvals. Actual costs and timing of in-service dates for Boardwalk Pipelines’ growth projects may differ, perhaps materially, from its estimates. In addition, failure to timely meet development milestones may result in, among other things, contractual counterparties having the ability to terminate contracts with Boardwalk Pipelines. Refer to Part I, Item 1. Business and Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for project descriptions and additional risks associated with Boardwalk Pipelines’ growth projects and the related financing.

Refer to Current Growth Projects in Part I, Item 1. Business in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for further discussion of Boardwalk Pipelines’ significant growth projects. Boardwalk Pipelines’ growth projects include $9.5 billion of estimated revenues that are anticipated under executed precedent or long-term firm transportation agreements for growth projects that are contingent upon, among other things, receipt of required regulatory approvals and permits and are subject to construction risk.
In addition to growth projects for which Boardwalk Pipelines has executed precedent agreements, it regularly considers other potential growth projects at earlier stages of development, and is currently evaluating additional growth projects involving substantial capital commitments. Boardwalk Pipelines may from time to time make public disclosures regarding these potential projects, for instance, through announcements of open seasons for potential future capacity. In addition to the risks, uncertainties and contingencies described above regarding the growth projects for which Boardwalk Pipelines has executed precedent agreements, these potential growth projects at earlier stages of development are subject to a variety of additional risks and uncertainties as Boardwalk Pipelines has not reached final investment decisions or secured executed precedent agreements for them. Therefore, these potential growth projects at earlier stages of development may not be consummated as contemplated in any such public disclosures or at all.
Results of Operations
Boardwalk Pipelines operates in the midstream portion of the natural gas and natural gas liquids, olefins and other hydrocarbons industry, providing transportation and storage for those commodities. Boardwalk Pipelines also provides ethane supply and transportation services for petrochemical customers in Louisiana and Texas. A significant portion of Boardwalk Pipelines’ revenues is fee-based, being derived from capacity reservation charges under firm agreements with customers, which do not vary significantly period to period, but are impacted by longer term trends in its business such as changes in pricing on contract renewals and other factors as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The pricing contained in the purchase and sales agreements associated with Boardwalk Pipelines’ ethane supply services is generally based on the same ethane commodity index, plus a fixed delivery fee. As a result, except for possible timing differences that may occur when volumes are purchased in one month and sold in another month, Boardwalk Pipelines’ ethane supply services, like its other businesses, has little to no direct commodity price exposure. For further information on Boardwalk Pipelines’ revenue recognition policies see Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Boardwalk Pipelines’

operation and maintenance expenses are impacted by its compliance with the requirements of, among other regulations, pipeline integrity maintenance regulations and its efforts to monitor, control and reduce emissions, as further discussed in Results of Operations of our MD&A included under Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The following table summarizes the results of operations for Boardwalk Pipelines for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, as presented in Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included under Item 1 of this Report. Boardwalk Pipelines also utilizes a non-GAAP measure, earnings before interest, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) as a financial measure to assess its operating and financial performance and return on invested capital. Management believes some investors may find this measure useful in evaluating Boardwalk Pipelines’ performance as EBITDA is a commonly used metric within the midstream industry.

Total revenues increased $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period. Transportation revenues for the natural gas business increased $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to higher contracting rates, recently completed growth projects and higher utilization-based revenue. Transportation revenues for the natural gas liquids business increased by $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to higher volumes. Storage and parking and lending (“PAL”) revenues for the natural gas business increased by $15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to favorable market conditions which allowed for contracting at higher rates. In the natural gas liquids business, ethane product sales decreased by $33 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by higher propane and ethylene product sales of $7 million.
Operating and other expenses decreased $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily from lower product costs of $30 million related to lower ethane product sales, partially offset by increased product costs of $15 million related to higher propane and ethylene sales. These decreases were partially offset by increased general and administrative costs of $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to higher employee-related and outside services costs and increased depreciation and amortization expense of $5 million.
Interest expenses increased $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period due to the pre-financing of a June 2026 debt maturity that was redeemed in March 2026.

Net income attributable to Loews Corporation $ 26 $ —
Net income attributable to Loews Corporation increased $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period primarily due to higher equity income from joint ventures, driven mainly by the Universal Orlando Resort joint ventures, and the other factors discussed below.
Operating revenues increased by $7 million and operating and other expenses increased by $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period. The increas e in operating revenues was primarily due to a higher overall average daily rate and higher food and beverage revenues. The increase in operating and other expenses was from higher hotel operating costs in support of the higher operating revenues.
Equity income from joint ventures increased $38 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as comp ared with the comparable 2025 period. The increase was driven by growth in the overall average daily rate and an increase in both the

number of available and the number of occupied room nights at the Universal Orlando Resort, including those attributable to the three new hotels that opened in 2025. Equity income from joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was impacted by an impairment charge recorded at a joint venture hotel that reduced Loews Hotels & Co’s equity income by $9 million and the reduction in distributions for one joint venture property due to property improvement costs.
Corporate
Corporate operations consist primarily of investment income, interest expense and administrative costs at the Parent Company.

Net investment results for the Parent Company decreased $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to lower results from the trading portfolio.
Interest expense increased $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with the comparable 2025 period, due to the issuance in February of 2026 of the Parent Company’s $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.9% senior notes due April 1, 2036, the proceeds of which were used to redeem on March 19, 2026 the outstanding $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.8% senior notes due April 1, 2026.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Parent Company
Parent Company cash and investments, net of receivables and payables, totaled $4.5 billion at March 31, 2026 as compared to $3.9 billion at December 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 , we received $691 million in cash dividends and distributions from our subsidiaries: $616 million from CNA, including a special cash dividend of $497 million, and $75 million from Boardwalk Pipelines. Cash outflows during the three months ended March 31, 2026 included the payment of $31 million to fund treasury stock purchases and $13 million of cash dividends to our shareholders . As a holding company we depend on dividends from our subsidiaries and returns on our investment portfolio to fund our obligations. We also have an effective shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under which we may publicly issue an unspecified amount of our debt, equity or hybrid securities from time to time. We are not responsible for the liabilities and obligations of our subsidiaries and there are no Parent Company guarantees.

Table of contents
In February of 2026, we completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.9% senior notes due April 1, 2036, the proceeds of which were used to redeem on March 19, 2026 the outstanding $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.8% senior notes due April 1, 2026.
Depending on market and other conditions, we may purchase shares of our and our subsidiaries outstanding common stock in the open market (including, with respect to our common stock, in open market transactions that may or may not satisfy all of the conditions of the Rule 10b-18 voluntary safe harbor), in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we purchased 0.3 million shares of Loews Corporation common stock for $31 million . As of May 1, 2026, there were 205,768,873 shares of Loews Corporation common stock outstanding.
Future uses of our cash may include purchases of our and our subsidiaries’ outstanding common stock, dividends, investing in our subsidiaries and/or to make opportunistic investments. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on many factors, including our earnings, financial condition and business needs.
Subsidiaries
CNA’s cash provided by operating activities was $393 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with $638 million for the comparable 2025 period. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was impacted by payments related to specific reinsurance treaties, which occurred during the first quarter of 2026, with such similar amounts paid in the second quarter of 2025. In addition, the decrease quarter over quarter was attributable to an increase in net claim payments, partially offset by increased investment earnings.
CNA paid cash dividends of $2.48 per share on its common stock, including a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share, during the three months ended March 31, 2026. On May 1, 2026 , CNA’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.48 per share, payable June 4, 2026 to shareholders of record on May 18, 2026 . CNA’s declaration and payment of future dividends is at the discretion of its Board of Directors and will depend on many factors, including CNA’s earnings, financial condition, business needs and regulatory constraints. CNA believes that its present cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities are sufficient to fund its current and expected working capital and debt obligation needs and does not expect this to change in the near term.
Dividends to CNA from Continental Casualty Company (“CCC”), a subsidiary of CNA, are subject to the insurance holding company laws of the State of Illinois, the domiciliary state of CCC. Under these laws, ordinary dividends, or dividends that do not require prior approval by the Illinois Department of Insurance, are determined based on the greater of the prior year’s statutory net income or 10% of statutory surplus as of the end of the prior year, as well as the timing and amount of dividends paid in the preceding 12 months. Additionally, ordinary dividends may only be paid from earned surplus, which is calculated by removing unrealized gains from unassigned surplus. As of March 31, 2026, CCC was in a positive earned surplus position. CCC paid dividends of $585 million and $440 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The actual level of dividends paid in any year is determined after an assessment of available dividend capacity, holding company liquidity and cash needs as well as the impact the dividends will have on the statutory surplus of the applicable insurance company.
CNA has an effective shelf registration statement on file with the SEC under which it may publicly issue an unspecified amount of debt, equity or hybrid securities from time to time.
Boardwalk Pipelines’ cash provided by operating activities was $246 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared with $244 million for the comparable 2025 period.
As described in Current Growth Projects above, Boardwalk Pipelines is currently engaged in growth projects for which it has executed precedent or long-term firm transportation agreements. Through the date of this filing, the expected aggregate cost associated with these agreements is approximately $3.2 billion; this cost is expected to be spent through 2030. As of March 31, 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines has spent $245 million on these growth projects. The majority of the capital expenditures for each of these projects is expected to be spent upon receiving FERC approval to begin construction, which is generally 12-18 months prior to the project’s expected in-service date. Boardwalk Pipelines is also evaluating additional growth projects involving substantial capital commitments. Boardwalk Pipelines expects to finance its growth projects through a combination of operating cash flows and the issuance of long-term debt, including borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Boardwalk Pipelines’ cost and timing estimates for its growth projects are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, and are based on the factors described in Boardwalk Pipelines: Current Growth Projects in this MD&A. Actual costs and timing of in-service dates for Boardwalk Pipelines’ growth projects may differ, perhaps materially, from its estimates. Refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for additional risks associated with Boardwalk Pipelines’ growth projects and the related financing.

Table of contents
The nature of Boardwalk Pipelines’ existing growth projects will require it to enhance or modify its existing assets to accommodate increased operating pressures or changing flow patterns. Boardwalk Pipelines considers capital expenditures associated with the modification or enhancement of existing assets in the context of a growth project to be growth capital to the extent that the modification would not have been made in the absence of the growth project without regard to the condition of the existing assets.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, Boardwalk Pipelines’ capital expenditures were $144 million and $52 million, consisting of growth capital expenditures of $110 million and $16 million and maintenance capital expenditures of $34 million and $36 million.
Additionally, as of March 31, 2026 , Boardwalk Pipelines has future capital commitments comprised of binding commitments under purchase orders for materials ordered but not received totaling approximately $467 million, which are expected to be settled through 2028.
As of March 31, 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and had the full borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion available. During the first quarter 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines filed a $3.5 billion shelf registration statement with the SEC, under which it may publicly issue debt securities, warrants or rights from time to time, which was declared effective on March 19, 2026. O n March 1, 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines redeemed the outstanding $550 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.0% senior notes due June 1, 2026 at a redemption price equal to par plus unpaid and accrued interest. The redemption was funded from the proceeds of the $550 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.4% senior notes due February 15, 2036 issued in 2025. Boardwalk Pipelines believes that its existing capital resources, including its cash and cash equivalents, revolving credit facility and cash flows from operating activities, will be adequate to fund its anticipated obligations over the next twelve months.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 , Boardwalk Pipelines paid a distribution of $75 million to the Company. On April 30, 2026, Boardwalk Pipelines acquired Spire Marketing LLC (previously known as Spire Marketing Inc.), a business engaged in natural gas marketing activities, for $215 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. The acquisition is expected to broaden Boardwalk Pipelines’ marketing capabilities and customer reach.
Loews Hotels & Co, through its subsidiaries, has loans, principally mortgage loans, all of which mature beyond twelve months as of March 31, 2026, which it may refinance before they mature. Refinancing any indebtedness, including loans of unconsolidated joint venture partnerships, may require Loews Hotels & Co to make principal pay downs, establish restricted cash reserves or provide guaranties of the subsidiary’s debt.
INVESTMENTS
Investment activities of our non-insurance subsidiaries primarily consist of investments in fixed income securities, including short-term investments. The Parent Company portfolio also includes equity securities, including short sales and derivative instruments. Certain of these types of Parent Company investments generally have greater volatility, less liquidity and greater risk than fixed income investments and are included within Results of Operations – Corporate.
The Parent Company enters into short sales and invests in certain derivative instruments that are used for asset and liability management activities, income enhancements to its portfolio management strategy and to benefit from anticipated future movements in the underlying markets. If such movements do not occur as anticipated, significant losses may occur. Monitoring procedures include senior management review of daily reports of existing positions and valuation fluctuations to seek to ensure that open positions are consistent with the portfolio strategy.
Credit exposure associated with non-performance by counterparties to derivative instruments is generally limited to the uncollateralized change in fair value of the derivative instruments recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The risk of non-performance is mitigated by monitoring the creditworthiness of counterparties and diversifying derivatives by using multiple counterparties. Collateral is occasionally required from derivative investment counterparties depending on the amount of the exposure and the credit rating of the counterparty.

CNA maintains a large portfolio of fixed maturity and equity securities, including large amounts of corporate and government issued debt securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, other asset-backed securities and investments in limited partnerships which pursue a variety of long and short investment strategies across a broad array of asset classes. CNA’s investment portfolio supports its obligation to pay future insurance claims and provides investment returns which are an important part of CNA’s overall profitability.

Duration
A primary objective in the management of CNA’s investment portfolio is to optimize return relative to the corresponding liabilities and respective liquidity needs. CNA’s views on the current interest rate environment, tax regulations, asset class valuations, specific security issuer and broader industry segment conditions as well as domestic and global economic conditions, are some of the factors that enter into an investment decision. CNA also continually monitors exposure to issuers of securities held and broader industry sector exposures and may from time to time adjust such exposures based on its views of a specific issuer or industry sector.
A further consideration in the management of CNA’s investment portfolio is the characteristics of the corresponding liabilities and the ability to align the duration of the portfolio to those liabilities and to meet future liquidity needs, minimize interest rate risk and maintain a level of income sufficient to support the underlying insurance liabilities. For portfolios where future liability cash flows are determinable and typically long-term in nature, CNA segregates investments for asset/liability management purposes. The segregated investments support the long-term care and structured settlement liabilities in Other Insurance Operations. The effective durations of CNA’s fixed income securities and short-term investments are presented in the following table. Amounts presented are net of payable and receivable amounts for securities purchased and sold, but not yet settled.

CNA’s investment portfolio is periodically analyzed for changes in duration and related price risk. Certain securities have duration characteristics that are variable based on market interest rates, credit spreads and other factors that may drive variability in the amount and timing of cash flows. Additionally, CNA periodically reviews the sensitivity of the portfolio to the level of foreign exchange rates and other factors that contribute to market price changes. A summary of these risks and specific analysis on changes is included in the Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk included under Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Certain accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Such estimates and judgments necessarily involve varying, and possibly significant, degrees of uncertainty. Accordingly, certain amounts currently recorded or disclosed in the financial statements will likely be adjusted in the future based on new available information and changes in other facts and circumstances. See the Critical Accounting Estimates and the Insurance Reserves sections of our MD&A included under Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for further information.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Investors are cautioned that certain statements contained in this Report as well as in other of our and our subsidiaries’ SEC filings and press releases and certain statements made by us and our subsidiaries and our and their officials in presentations or remarks may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact and may project, indicate or imply future results, events, performance or achievements. Such statements may contain the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. In addition, any statement concerning future financial performance (including future revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible actions taken by us or our subsidiaries are also forward-looking statements as defined by the Act. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are inherently subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or projected.
Developments in any of the risks or uncertainties facing us or our subsidiaries, including those described under Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and in our and our subsidiaries’ other filings with the SEC, could cause our and our subsidiaries’ results to differ materially from results that have been or may be anticipated or projected. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we and our subsidiaries expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to update these statements to reflect any change in expectations or beliefs or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based.
