• Net loss was driven by Closed Block, partially offset by Enact

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The company uses non-GAAP financial measures entitled “adjusted operating income (loss)” and “adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block.” These non-GAAP financial measures are evaluated by management and the company’s Board of Directors to assess performance, manage capital allocation, and in the case of adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block, as a factor for determining annual incentive awards and compensation for senior management. These measures have been established to more accurately reflect overall operating performance, as they minimize the impact of macroeconomic volatility. Management believes using adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block as a consolidated measure of profit or loss better aligns with the company’s strategy and capital allocation framework, as no capital is allocated to the Closed Block segment, which operates on a standalone basis, using existing capital and reserves, along with in-force management actions, to meet future obligations. The company also continues to report adjusted operating income (loss) for the Closed Block segment, as it believes it is the appropriate measure of profit or loss in accordance with segment reporting. Although adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block are non-GAAP financial measures, the company believes these measures aid in understanding the underlying performance of its operations.

The company defines adjusted operating income (loss) as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding:

• net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests,
• net investment gains (losses),
• changes in fair value of market risk benefits attributable to interest rates, equity markets and associated hedges,
• gains (losses) on the sale of businesses,
• gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt,
• restructuring costs, and
• infrequent or unusual non-operating items.

A component of the company’s net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to the company’s discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. The company excludes the items listed above from adjusted operating income (loss) because, in the company’s opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating performance.

Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21% current tax rate, plus any associated deferred taxes, and are net of the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests. Changes in fair value of market risk benefits and associated hedges are adjusted to exclude changes in reserves, attributed fees and benefit payments.

Adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block is derived from adjusted operating income (loss) and excludes adjusted operating income (loss) of the company’s Closed Block segment. While some of the excluded items may be significant components of net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, the company believes that adjusted operating income (loss), and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss), including adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the company. Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block are not measures of complete profitability; therefore, they should not be considered in isolation or viewed as substitutes for GAAP net income (loss). In addition, the company’s definition of adjusted operating income (loss) may differ from the definitions used by other companies. In reporting non-GAAP measures in the future, the company may make other adjustments to exclude items it does not consider reflective of its core operating performance. The company may also disclose other non-GAAP operating measures in the future if it believes that such measures would be helpful to investors in their evaluation of the company.

A table at the end of this press release provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss), excluding Closed Block for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, as well as the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Management also reports revenues of its CareScout services business (CareScout Services) to monitor growth of the business. CareScout Services revenues, which are included in Corporate and Other, primarily consist of fees from the CareScout Quality Network and placement fees earned when placing a care seeker in a senior living community, along with service fees such as eligibility assessments and Care Plans. To arrive at CareScout Services revenues, Corporate and Other revenues are adjusted to exclude intercompany eliminations, revenues from other businesses not individually reportable, including the company’s CareScout insurance business (CareScout Insurance) and international businesses, and other sources of revenue such as corporate net investment income and net investment gains (losses). See the table at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of total Corporate and Other revenues to CareScout Services revenues.

Statutory Accounting Data
The company presents certain supplemental statutory data for GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries that has been prepared on the basis of statutory accounting principles (SAP). GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries file financial statements with state insurance regulatory authorities and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners that are prepared using SAP, an accounting basis either prescribed or permitted by such authorities. Due to differences in methodology between SAP and GAAP, the values for assets, liabilities and equity, and the recognition of income and expenses, reflected in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are materially different from those reflected in financial statements prepared under SAP. This supplemental statutory data should not be viewed as an alternative to, or used in lieu of, GAAP.

This supplemental statutory data includes the company action level RBC ratio for GLIC and its consolidating life insurance subsidiaries as well as combined statutory pre-tax earnings from the principal legacy insurance companies, GLIC, GLAIC and GLICNY. Statutory pre-tax earnings represent the net gain (loss) from operations, including the impact from in-force rate actions, before dividends to policyholders, refunds to members and federal income taxes and before realized capital gains or (losses). The combined product level statutory pre-tax earnings are grouped on a consistent basis as those provided on page six of the statutory Annual Statements. Management uses and provides this supplemental statutory data because it believes it provides a useful measure of, among other things, statutory pre-tax earnings and the adequacy of capital. Management uses this data to measure against its policy to manage the legacy insurance companies with internally generated capital.
