Item 2.02        Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 12, 2024, Athene Holding Ltd. (the “Company”) made available on its website the Company’s financial supplement for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023, furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference in this Item 2.02.

The foregoing information, including the Exhibit referenced in this Item 2.02, is being furnished pursuant to this Item 2.02 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing or other document, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing or document.


Item 5.02        Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 12, 2024, Bogdan Ignaschenko was appointed to the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company, effective immediately.

Mr. Ignaschenko entered into a standard indemnification agreement with the Company, as more fully described under the caption “Indemnification of Directors” on page 66 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2023 (“Annual Report”).

Mr. Ignaschenko is Partner at Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Apollo”). As an employee of Apollo, Mr. Ignaschenko will not receive compensation for his services as a director of the Company, consistent with the treatment of the Company’s other directors who are employees of Apollo.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Ignaschenko and any person pursuant to which Mr. Ignaschenko was selected as a director. Various affiliates of Apollo, of which Mr. Ignaschenko is Partner, directly or indirectly manage investment funds and direct investments, some of which have engaged in transactions with the Company. Certain members of the Board may directly receive carried interest or may receive a portion of the carried interest that Apollo receives from fund investments in which the Company is invested. Certain directors may invest in fund investments in which the Company has invested. These transactions, and the relationships between the Company and Apollo and its affiliates, are set forth in the section titled “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence” in the Company’s Annual Report.
