Statutory Results

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2023

The Company and its domestic insurance subsidiaries prepare their statutory financial statements in conformity with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the applicable state insurance department which vary materially from U.S. GAAP. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”), as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. The differences between statutory financial statements and financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP vary between domestic and foreign jurisdictions. The principal differences are that statutory financial statements do not reflect deferred policy acquisition and value of business acquired costs and limit deferred income taxes, predominately use interest rate and mortality assumptions prescribed by the NAIC for life benefit reserves, generally carry bonds at amortized cost and present reinsurance assets and liabilities net of reinsurance. For reporting purposes, statutory capital and surplus is referred to collectively as "statutory capital".

Statutory net income (loss) and statutory capital for the Company's U.S. insurance subsidiaries are as follows:


	Successor Company						Predecessor Company
	For the Years Ended December 31,				For the Period of July 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021		For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
(In millions)	2023		2022		For the Period of July 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021		For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Combined statutory net income (loss)	$	48	$	441	$	(426)	$	(2)


	Successor Company
	As of December 31,
	2023		2022
Statutory capital [1]	$	2,188	$	2,738

[1] The Company relies upon a prescribed practice allowed by Connecticut state laws that allow the Company to receive a reinsurance reserve credit for reinsurance treaties that provide for a limited right of unilateral cancellation by the reinsurer. The benefit from this prescribed practice was approximately $27 and $40 as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 (Successor Company), respectively.

Statutory accounting practices do not consolidate the net income (loss) of subsidiaries that report under U.S. GAAP. The combined statutory net income (loss) above represents the total statutory net income (loss) of the Company and its other insurance subsidiaries. Statutory accounting principles require that ceding commissions paid on reinsurance transactions be expensed in the period incurred, affecting statutory net loss, where U.S. GAAP allows for the deferral of these amounts.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company's U.S. insurance companies' states of domicile impose RBC requirements. The requirements provide a means of measuring the minimum amount of statutory capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations based on its size and risk profile. Regulatory compliance is determined by a ratio of a company's total adjusted capital (“TAC”) to its authorized control level RBC (“ACL RBC”). Companies below specific trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. The minimum level of TAC before corrective action commences (“Company Action Level”) is two times the ACL RBC. The adequacy of a company's capital is determined by the ratio of a company's TAC to its Company Action Level, known as the "RBC ratio." The Company and all of its operating insurance subsidiaries had RBC ratios in excess of the minimum levels required by the applicable insurance regulations. The RBC ratios for the Company and its principal life insurance operating subsidiaries were all in excess of 300% of their Company Action Levels as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 (Successor Company) .The reporting of RBC ratios is not intended for the purpose of ranking any insurance company, or for use in connection with any marketing, advertising or promotional activities.

Dividends

The payment of dividends by Connecticut-domiciled insurers is limited under the insurance holding company laws of Connecticut. These laws require notice to and approval by the state insurance commissioner for the declaration or payment of any dividend, which, together with other dividends or distributions made within the preceding twelve months, exceeds the greater of (i) 10% of the insurer’s policyholder surplus as of December 31 of the preceding year or (ii) net income (or net gain from operations, if such company is a life insurance company) for the twelve-month period ending on the thirty-first day of December last preceding, in each case determined under statutory insurance accounting principles. In addition, if any dividend of a domiciled insurer exceeds the insurer’s earned surplus or certain other thresholds as calculated under applicable state insurance law, the dividend requires the prior approval of the domestic regulator. In addition to statutory limitations on paying dividends, the Company also takes other items into consideration when determining dividends from subsidiaries. These considerations include, but are not limited to, expected earnings and capitalization of the subsidiary, regulatory capital requirements and liquidity requirements of the individual operating company.

The Company is permitted to pay up to a maximum of $571 in dividends and the Company's subsidiaries are permitted to pay up to a maximum of $429 in dividends, as determined by the above mentioned insurance regulations.

On July 6, 2023 (Successor Company), TL's subsidiary declared and paid TL a dividend of $95 and the Company declared and paid a $575 dividend to its parent, TR Re.

On December 29, 2023 (Successor Company), the Company's subsidiary, American Maturity Life Insurance Company ("AML"), declared and paid TL a dividend of $36.
