[1] 1The change in other assets is driven by the cost of reinsurance associated with the second phase of our Closed Block individual disability reinsurance transaction which was completed in the first quarter of 2021. In accordance with the provisions of the ASU related to non-contemporaneous reinsurance, we were then required to establish the ceded reserves using an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument as of the reinsurance transaction date in March 2021 which resulted in higher ceded reserves compared to that which was reported historically.

[2] 2We previously reported policy and contract benefits and reserves for future policy and contract benefits liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 of $1,771.4 million and $42,108.7 million, respectively, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $43,880.1 million. These balances were reclassified into new line items, future policy benefits and policyholders' account balances, which would have reported balances of $38,079.8 million and $5,800.3 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2022, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $43,880.1 million under the historical accounting method.

[3] 1We previously reported policy and contract benefits and reserves for future policy and contract benefits liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 of $1,839.8 million and $42,330.2 million, respectively, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $44,170.0 million. These balances were reclassified into new line items, future policy benefits and policyholders' account balances, which would have reported balances of $38,443.2 million and $5,726.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $44,170.0 million under the historical accounting method.

[4] 5These amounts represent the portion of reinsurance recoverable related to the liability for future policy benefits. These amounts include the adjustments for the removal of shadow adjustments and for the effect of change in discount rate assumptions for the liability for future policy benefits ceded to third party reinsurers.

[5] 1Unum US excludes dental & vision and medical stop-loss product lines and Closed Block excludes our participating fund account, which represents policies issued by one of our subsidiaries prior to its 1986 conversion from a mutual stock life insurance company. The liabilities associated with these products are included within Other products.

[6] 1 Previously disclosed as Benefits and Change in Reserves for Future Benefits

[7] 1We previously reported policy and contract benefits and reserves for future policy and contract benefits liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 of $1,855.4 million and $49,653.0 million, respectively, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $51,508.4 million. These balances were reclassified into new line items, future policy benefits and policyholders' account balances, which would have reported balances of $45,704.4 million and $5,804.0 million as of December 31, 2020, respectively, resulting in total policyholder liabilities of $51,508.4 million under the historical accounting method. These balances were reclassified to more closely align with the new disclosure requirements of ASU 2018-12.

[8] 2Shadow adjustments represent the adjustments related to unrealized investment gains and losses previously included in the reserves balance prior to the adoption of ASU 2018-12.

[9] 3Adjustment for loss contracts represents the adjustment for those cohorts whose net premium ratio exceeded 100 percent as of the transition date. For those cohorts, the net premiums were set equal to the gross premiums and the difference was recorded as a transition adjustment to the liability for future policy benefits.

[10] 4This amount reflects the effect of the reclassification of certain unearned premium. This amount was reclassified to more closely align with the presentation of liabilities under ASU 2018-12 and had no impact to stockholders' equity.

[11] 1The $12.3 million removal of shadow adjustments is related to the Unum US voluntary benefits product line.
