This growth was more than offset by lower fee income resulting from reduced average variable annuity AUM, a prior period benefit from a payout annuity reserve release, and a comparatively unfavorable impact from updating future policy benefits cash flow assumptions. 2Q25 vs. 1Q25 • Decrease due to lower fee income resulting from reduced average variable annuity AUM and higher market related costs and other expenses. Equity market levels at the end of the second quarter positions us well going into the third quarter. Total Common Shareholders’ Equity • Total Common Shareholders’ Equity at end of 2Q25 of $9.8 billion compared to a balance of $9.2 billion at end of 4Q24 • Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders at end of 2Q25 of $11.1 billion down slightly from $11.2 billion at end of 4Q24, primarily due to capital return to shareholders and non - operating deferred acquisition cost amortization, partially offset by adjusted operating earnings of $0.7 billion Adjusted Operating Earnings 1 ($ millions) Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders 1 ($ billions) Key Takeaways 1) See the Appendix for the non - U.S. GAAP financial measures, definitions, and reconciliations to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures. 5 Second Quarter 2025

(57) 406 (100) 9 183 Net hedge results 2 Net realized investment loss and other, net • Economic hedging better aligns with U.S. GAAP accounting following the establishment and funding of Brooke Re, leading to a better alignment between adjusted earnings and U.S. GAAP earnings • Changes in implied volatility impact our MRB measurements for U.S. GAAP without a corresponding hedge offset as we do not hedge changes in volatility. Changes in implied volatility do not impact our Brooke Re MRB measurement where the modified GAAP methodology uses a fixed volatility assumption (designed to promote balance sheet stability). • Income on funds withheld is offset by the change in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) arising from investments in the funds withheld account related to a legacy reinsurance transaction, resulting in a minimal net impact on the adjusted book value of Jackson Financial Inc. Highlights YTD 2025 YTD 2024 2Q25 2Q24 $1,532 $1,568 $764 $780 Fees attributable to guarantee benefit reserves (829) (3,659) (1,840) (1,083) Net (losses) gains on hedging instruments (43) 3,234 2,203 516 Market risk benefits gains (losses), net (733) (642) (1,066) (278) Net reserve and embedded derivative movements 4 $(73) $501 $61 $(65) Net Hedge Results 61 Amortization of DAC associated with non - operating items at date of transition to LDTI ($ millions) Second Quarter 2025 Overall, our hedging program performed well in 2Q25, despite higher levels of volatility early in the quarter. We ended 2Q25 with a net hedge gain as derivative losses driven by higher equity markets and higher long - term interest rates were more than offset by changes in market risk benefits (MRB) and guarantee fees.

Non - GAAP Financial Measures In addition to presenting our results of operations and financial condition in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use and report s ele cted non - GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures, together with relevant U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a better understanding of our results of op era tions, financial condition and the underlying performance drivers of our business. These non - GAAP financial measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are pres ent ed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may use similarly titled non - GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Consequently, our non - GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. These non - GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated i n accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted Operating Earnings Adjusted Operating Earnings is an after - tax non - GAAP financial measure, which we believe should be used to evaluate our financia l performance on a consolidated basis by excluding certain items that may be highly variable from period to period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non - recurring in nature, as well as certa in other revenues and expenses that we do not view as driving our underlying performance. Adjusted Operating Earnings should not be used as a substitute for net income as calculated in accordance with U .S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to net income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Adjusted Operating Earnings equals our Net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders (which ex clu des income attributable to non - controlling interest and dividends on preferred stock) adjusted to eliminate the impact of the items described in the following numbered paragraphs. These items are excluded as th ey may vary significantly from period to period due to near - term market conditions or are otherwise not directly comparable or reflective of the underlying performance of our business. We believe these exclusions p rov ide investors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying performance. 1) Net Hedging Results: Comprised of: (i) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits; (ii) net gains (losses) on hedging instruments which includes: (a) cha nges in the fair value of freestanding derivatives, and related commissions and expenses, used to manage the risk associated with market risk benefits and other guaranteed benefit features, ex cluding earned income from periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals on cross - currency swaps; and (b) investment income and change in fair value of certain non - derivative assets used to ma nage the risk associated with market risk benefits and other guaranteed benefit features; and (iii) the movements in reserves, market risk benefits, guaranteed benefit features accounted for as embedded de riv ative instruments, and related claims and benefit payments (excluding impacts of actuarial assumption updates and model enhancements). We believe excluding these items removes the impact to both revenue and re lated expenses associated with Net Hedging Results. 2) Amortization of DAC Associated with Non - Operating Items at Date of Transition to LDTI: Amortization of the balance of unamortized deferred acquisition costs, at January 1, 2021, the date of transition to current Long Duration Targeted Improvements (LDTI) accounting guidance, associated with items excluded from pretax adjusted operating ea rnings prior to transition. 3) Actuarial Assumption Updates and Model Enhancements: The impact on the valuation of MRBs and embedded derivatives arising from our annual actuarial assumption updates and model e nha ncements review. 4) Net Realized Investment Gains and Losses: Comprised of: ( i ) realized investment gains and losses associated with the periodic sales or disposals of securities, excluding those held wi thi n our trading portfolio; and (ii) impairments of securities, after adjustment for the non - credit component of the impairment charges; and (iii) foreign curre ncy gain or loss on foreign denominated funding agreements and associated cross - currency swaps. 5) Change in Value of Funds Withheld Embedded Derivative and Net Investment Income on Funds Withheld Assets: Composed of (i) the change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; and (ii) net investment income on funds withheld assets related to funds withheld reinsurance transactions. 6) Other Items: Comprised of: (i) the impact of investments that are consolidated in our financial statements due to U.S. GAAP accounting req uir ements, such as our investments in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), but for which the consolidation effects are not consistent with our economic interest or exposure to those entities; (ii ) impacts from derivatives not included in Net Hedging Results or Net Realized Investment Gains or Losses (see 1. and 4. above), excluding earned income from periodic settlements and changes in settlement ac cruals on cross - currency swaps; and (iii) one - time or other non - recurring items. Operating Income Taxes are calculated using the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% while taking into account any items recognized d iff erently in our financial statements and federal income tax returns, including the dividends received deduction and other tax credits. For interim reporting periods, the Company uses an es timated annual effective tax rate ("ETR") in computing its tax provision including consideration of discrete items. 27

 

 

Non - GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders excludes Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ( Los s) (AOCI) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. (JFI), which does not include AOCI arising from investments held within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction. We exclude AOC I a ttributable to JFI from Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders because our invested assets are generally invested to closely match the duration of our liabilities, which are longer duratio n i n nature, and therefore we believe period - to - period fair market value fluctuations in AOCI to be inconsistent with this objective. We believe excluding AOCI attributable to JFI is more useful to investors in analyzing t ren ds in our business. Changes in AOCI within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction offset the related non - operating earnings from the Athene Reinsurance Transaction resulting in a minimal net impact on Adjusted Book Value of Jackson Financial Inc. Adjusted Operating Return on Equity Attributable to Common Shareholders We use Adjusted Operating Return on Equity (ROE) Attributable to Common Shareholders to manage our business and evaluate our fin ancial performance which: (i) excludes items that vary from period - to - period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non - recurring in nature, as such items may distort the underlying performanc e of our business; and (ii) is calculated by dividing our Adjusted Operating Earnings by average Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders. Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders should no t be used as substitutes for total shareholders’ equity and ROE as calculated using annualized net income and average equity in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to equity an d e arnings are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Free Cash Flow Free cash flow is Jackson Financial Inc. (Parent Company only) (JFI) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less pr eferred stock dividends and capital contributions to PPM, plus the return of capital from subsidiaries. Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for JFI’s net cash provided by (used in) operating activitie s i n accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe these adjustments are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall available cash flow at JFI for return of capital to common shareholders or other corporate initi ati ves. Notable Items Notable items reflect the impact on our results of certain items or events that may or may not have been anticipated and resu lte d in volatility in the Company's earnings expectations. The presentation of notable items is intended to help investors better understand our results for the period and to evaluate and forecast those results. 28

Glossary Athene Reinsurance Transaction - The funds withheld coinsurance agreement with Athene Life Re Ltd., entered into on June 18, 2020, and effective June 1, 2020, to reinsure a 100% quota share of a block of our in - force fixed and fixed index annuity liabilities in exchange for approximately $1.2 billion in ceding commissions. Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) - Represent the incremental costs related directly to the successful acquisition of new, and certain renewal, insurance policie s and annuity contracts. The recognition of these costs has been deferred, and the deferred amounts are shown on the balance sheet as an asset, which is subject to amortization over the estimated lives of th ose policies and contracts. Derivative Instruments - Jackson Financial Inc.'s (JFI) business model includes the acceptance, monitoring and mitigation of risk. Specifically, JFI c onsiders, among other factors, exposures to interest rate and equity market movements, foreign exchange rates and other asset or liability prices. JFI uses derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce these risk s i n accordance with established policies and goals. JFI's derivative holdings, while effective in managing defined risks, are not structured to meet accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments. As a result, freestanding de rivatives are carried at fair value with changes each period recorded in net gains or losses on derivatives and investments. Earnings per Share (EPS) - Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders by the weighted - a verage number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders, by the weighted - average numbe r of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, plus shares representing the dilutive effect of share - based awards. Fixed Annuity (FA) - An annuity that guarantees a set annual rate of return with interest at rates we determine, subject to specified minimums. C r edited interest rates are guaranteed not to change for certain limited periods of time, after which rates may reset. Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) - An annuity with an ability to share in the upside from certain financial markets such as equity indices and provides downside protection. Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit (GMAB) - An add - on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) that entitles an owner to a minimum payment, typically in lump - sum, after a set period of time, referred to as the accumulation period. The minimum payment is based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the underlying accoun t v alue. Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) - An add - on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) that guarantees an owner's beneficiaries are entitled t o a minimum payment based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the underlying account value, upon the death of the owner. Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit (GMIB) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to annuitize the policy and receive a minimum payment stream based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the payment stream resulting from current annuitization of the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw a maximum amount of their benefit base each year, for which cumulative payments to the owner could be greater than the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit for Life (GMWB for Life) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw the guaranteed annual withdrawal a mount each year for the duration of the policyholder's life, regardless of account performance. LDTI - Accounting Standards Update 2018 - 12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long - Duration Contracts”, effective January 1, 2023, with a transition date of January 1, 2021. Net Amount at Risk (NAR) - The greater of Death Benefit NAR (DBNAR) and Living Benefit NAR (LBNAR), as applicable, where DBNAR is the GMDB benefit base i n excess of the account value, and the LBNAR is the actuarial present value of guaranteed living benefits in excess of the account value. 32

 

 

Glossary Net Flows - The net change in customer account balances during a period, including gross premiums, surrenders, withdrawals and benefits. Net flows exclude investment performance, interest credited to customer accounts and policy charges. Registered Index - Linked Annuity (RILA) - A registered index - linked annuity, which offers market index - linked investment options, subject to a cap, and offers a variety of guarantees designed to modify or limit losses. Return of Premium (ROP) Death Benefit - This death benefit pays the greater of the account value at the time of a claim following the owner's death or the total cont r ibutions to the contract (subject to adjustment for withdrawals). The charge for this benefit is usually included in the Mortality and Expense fee that is deducted daily from the net assets in ea ch variable investment option. We also refer to this death benefit as the Return of Principal death benefit. Risk Based Capital (RBC) - Statutory minimum level of capital that is required by regulators for an insurer to support its operations. Segment - Retail Annuities JFI's Retail Annuities segment offers a variety of retirement income and savings products through its diverse suite of produc ts, consisting primarily of variable annuities, fixed index annuities, fixed annuities, payout annuities and registered index - linked annuities (RILA). These products are distributed through various wirehouses, insurance brokers and inde pendent broker - dealers, as well as through banks and financial institutions, primarily to high - net - worth investors and the mass and affluent markets. The financial results of the variable annuity business within the Company’s Retail Annuities segment are largely dependent on th e performance of the contract holder account value, which impacts both the level of fees collected and the benefits paid to the contract holder. The financial results of the Company’s fixed annuities, including the fixed option on var iable annuities, RILA and fixed index annuities, are largely dependent on the Company's ability to earn a spread between earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited to contract holders. Segment - Institutional Products JFI's Institutional Products consist of traditional guaranteed investment contracts (GICs), and funding agreements. JFI's GI C p roducts are marketed to defined contribution pension and profit - sharing retirement plans. Funding agreements are marketed to institutional investors, including corporate cash accounts and securities lending funds, as well a s m oney market funds. Funding agreements are also issued in conjunction with JFI’s participation in the U.S. Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) program. The financial results of JFI's Institutional Products business are primarily dependent on the Company’s ability to earn a spr ead between earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited on GICs and funding agreements. Segment - Closed Life and Annuity Blocks JFI’s Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is primarily composed of blocks of business that have been acquired since 2004. Th e segment includes various protection products, primarily whole life, universal life, variable universal life, and term life insurance products as well as fixed, fixed index, and payout annuities. The Closed Life and Annuity Blocks seg men t also includes a block of group payout annuities that we assumed from John Hancock Life Insurance Company (USA) and John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York through reinsurance transactions in 2018 and 2019, respecti vel y. The Company historically offered traditional and interest - sensitive life insurance products but discontinued new sales of life insurance products in 2012, as we believe opportunistically acquiring mature blocks of life in sur ance policies is a more efficient means of diversifying our in - force business than selling new life insurance products. The profitability of JFI's Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is largely driven by its historical ability to appropriatel y p rice its products and purchase appropriately priced blocks of business, as realized through underwriting, expense and net gains (losses) on derivatives and investments, and the ability to earn an assumed rate of return on the assets suppor tin g that business. Variable Annuity (VA) - An annuity that offers tax - deferred investment into a range of asset classes and a variable return, which offers insurance fea tures related to potential future income payments. 33
