+Added: The increase in the March 31, 2024, balance from December 31, 2023, was primarily driven by a decision in the first quarter to sell certain regional properties to optimize our real estate portfolio by consolidating employees into already existing alternative properties.
Earnings Per Share
−Removed: Net income is reduced by preferred share dividends to determine net income available to common shareholders and is used in our calculation of the per common share amounts.
−Removed: Beginning March 15, 2023, the annual dividend rate for our Series B Preferred Shares switched to a floating rate.
−Removed: The floating nature of the dividend rate will impact the amount of the adjustment required to calculate net income available to common shareholders.
+Added: We redeemed all of our outstanding Serial Preferred Shares, Series B, in February 2024.
See Note 9 – Dividends for further discussion.

−Removed: We intend to adopt the new standard under the modified retrospective basis, however, we do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
+Added: On January 1, 2024, we started to amortize the remaining original cost of tax equity investments to the provision for income taxes, since certain conditions were met, on the modified retrospective basis, pursuant to an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
+Added: Previously, these investments were accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
+Added: The adoption of the ASU had no cumulative effect on retained earnings and did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
+Added: The amount of income tax credits and investment amortization recognized for the first quarter 2024, and the carrying amount of the tax credit investments at March 31, 2024, were not material to our financial condition or results of operations and, therefore, no additional disclosure is provided.

+Added: For those securities that we determined we were not likely to, or did not intend to, sell prior to a potential recovery, we performed additional analysis to determine if the loss was
+Added: credit related.
For securities subject to credit related loss, we calculated the net present value (NPV) of the cash flows expected (i.e., expected recovery value) using the current book yield for each security.
The NPV was then compared to the security’s current amortized value to determine if a credit loss existed.
−Removed: In the event that the NPV was below the amortized value, and the amount was determined to be material individually, or in the aggregate, a credit loss would be deemed to exist, and either an allowance for credit losses would be created, or if an allowance currently existed, either a recovery of the previous allowance, or an incremental loss, would be recorded to net realized gains (losses) on securities.
−Removed: As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, and December 31, 2022, we believe none of the unrealized losses were related to material credit losses on any individual security, or in the aggregate.

−Removed: In addition, we reviewed our accrued investment income outstanding on those securities in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2023 and 2022, and December 31, 2022, to determine if the accrued interest amounts were determined to be uncollectible.
−Removed: Based on our analysis, we believe the issuers have sufficient liquidity and capital reserves to meet their current interest, and future principal, obligations and, therefore, did no t write off any accrued income as uncollectible at September 30, 2023 and 2022, or December 31, 2022.

+Added: As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and December 31, 2023, we believe that none of the unrealized losses on our fixed-maturity securities were related to material credit losses on any specific securities, or in the aggregate.
+Added: We continue to expect all the securities in our fixed-maturity portfolio to pay their principal and interest obligations.
+Added: In addition, we reviewed our accrued investment income outstanding on those securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2024 and 2023, and December 31, 2023, to determine if the accrued interest amounts were uncollectible.
