Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act) provides a "safe harbor" to encourage companies to provide prospective information, as long as those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. Certain information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (including certain statements in the consolidated financial statements and related notes and Management's Discussion and Analysis), or in any other written or oral statements made by us in communications with the financial community or contained in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. Forward-looking statements are those not based on historical information, but rather relate to our outlook, future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to update these statements, even if made available on our website or otherwise. These statements may be made directly in this document or may be made part of this document by reference to other documents filed by us with the SEC, a practice which is known as "incorporation by reference." You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as "will," "may," "should," "could," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "plans," "assumes," "intends," "projects," "goals,” "objectives," or similar expressions in this document or in documents incorporated herein.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements - Continued
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. We caution readers that the following factors, in addition to other factors mentioned from time to time, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Unum Group and Subsidiaries
September 30, 2025
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Unum Group and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.
Note 2 - Accounting Developments
Accounting Updates Adopted in 2024:
ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
The amendments in this update enhanced disclosures of significant expenses for reportable segments. Specifically, the update added a requirement to disclose significant expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and are included in each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This update required the disclosure of the title and position of the CODM as well as an explanation of how they use the reported measure(s) to assess segment performance and make decisions about allocating resources. The update also required the disclosure of the amount and composition of other segment items, which is the difference between reported segment revenues less the significant segment expenses. The amendments in this update allow for the disclosure of more than one measure of segment profit or loss, provided that at least one of the reported measures includes the segment profit or loss measure that is most consistent with GAAP measurement principles.
The amendments in this update were applied retrospectively in the annual period ended as of December 31, 2024 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2025. The adoption of this update modified our disclosures but did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and related amendments
The amendments in this update provided optional guidance, for a limited period of time, to ease the potential burden in accounting for and recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance allowed for various practical expedients and exceptions when applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected either by discontinued rates as a direct result of reference rate reform or a market-wide change in interest rates used for discounting, margining or contract price alignment, if certain criteria are met. Specifically, the guidance provided certain practical expedients for contract modifications, fair value hedges, and cash flow hedges, and also provided certain exceptions related to changes in the critical terms of a hedging relationship. The guidance also allowed for a one-time election to sell or transfer debt securities that were both classified as held-to-maturity prior to January 1, 2020 and referenced a rate affected by the reform.
The adoption of this update was permitted as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 (the issuance date of the update), or any date thereafter, through December 31, 2024, at which point the guidance sunset. We have elected practical expedients for contracts impacted by reference rate reform which did not result in a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Accounting Updates Outstanding:
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
The amendments in this update require greater disaggregation of income tax disclosures related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. Specifically, the guidance requires additional information that meet a quantitative

Note 2 - Accounting Developments - Continued
threshold in specified categories with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory tax rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. The specified categories are the following: state and local income taxes, foreign tax effects, effect of cross-border tax laws, enactment of new tax laws, nontaxable or nondeductible items, tax credits, changes in valuation allowances, and changes in unrecognized tax benefits. The quantitative threshold for each category is five percent of the amount computed by multiplying income (or loss) from continuing operations before income taxes by the statutory federal income tax rate. In addition, the amendments require additional information pertaining to income taxes paid, net of refunds, to be disaggregated by federal, state and foreign jurisdictions, and further disaggregated for specific jurisdictions to the extent the related amounts exceed a quantitative threshold of five percent of total income taxes paid. The amendments also require disclosures of income (or loss) before income tax expense (or benefit) as domestic or foreign for each annual reporting period.
The amendments eliminate the historic requirement to disclose information regarding unrecognized tax benefits having a reasonable possibility of significantly increasing or decreasing in the twelve months following the reporting date, as well as the requirement to disclose the cumulative temporary differences when a deferred tax liability is not recognized due to certain exceptions under ASC 740.
We will adopt this update effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2025 using a retrospective approach. The adoption of this update will not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations, but will expand our disclosures effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2025.
ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses: Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses and related amendment
The amendments in this update require the disclosure of disaggregation of certain income statement expense line items. Specifically, the guidance requires the disclosure of additional information related to certain expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation and amortization, and certain other expenses included in each income statement line item. The amendments also require the disclosure of both the total amount of selling expenses and a definition of selling expenses.
We will adopt this update effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2027, and interim periods beginning January 1, 2028. The adoption of this update is permitted on a prospective basis or a retrospective basis. The adoption of this update will expand our disclosures but will not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software: Intangibles - Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)
The amendments in this update modernize the recognition framework for the capitalization of internal-use software and remove all references to software development project stages. The guidance requires software development costs to be capitalized when both of the following criteria are met: (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform its intended function.

Note 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements for Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value
We report fixed maturity securities, which are classified as available-for-sale securities, derivative financial instruments, and unrestricted equity securities at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. We report our investments in private equity

partnerships at our share of the partnerships' net asset value (NAV) per share or its equivalent as a practical expedient for fair value.
The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of financial instruments generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Financial instruments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in active markets generally have more pricing observability and less judgment utilized in measuring fair value. An active market for a financial instrument is a market in which transactions for an asset or a similar asset occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and should be used to measure fair value whenever available. Conversely, financial instruments rarely traded or not quoted have less observability and are measured at fair value using valuation techniques that require more judgment. Pricing observability is generally impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instrument, whether the financial instrument is new to the market and not yet established, the characteristics specific to the transaction, and overall market conditions.
We classify financial instruments in accordance with a fair value hierarchy consisting of three levels based on the observability of valuation inputs:
•Level 1 - the highest category of the fair value hierarchy classification wherein inputs are unadjusted and represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
•Level 2 - valued using inputs (other than prices included in Level 1) that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument's anticipated life.
•Level 3 - the lowest category of the fair value hierarchy and reflects the judgment of management regarding what market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities categorized as Level 3 are generally those that are valued using unobservable inputs to extrapolate an estimated fair value.
Valuation Methodologies of Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value
Valuation techniques used for assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value are generally categorized into three types. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach converts future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount, or a discounted amount. The cost approach is based upon the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset, or the current replacement cost.
We use valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available that can be obtained without undue cost and effort. In some cases, a single valuation technique will be appropriate (for example, when valuing an asset or liability using quoted prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities). In other cases, multiple valuation techniques will be appropriate. If we use multiple valuation techniques to measure fair value, we evaluate and weigh the results, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. A fair value measurement is the point within that range that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances.
The selection of the valuation method(s) to apply considers the definition of an exit price and depends on the nature of the asset or liability being valued. For assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value, we generally use valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, and to a lesser extent, the income approach. We believe the market approach provides more observable data than the income approach, considering the type of investments we hold. Our fair value measurements could differ significantly based on the valuation technique and available inputs. When using a pricing service, we obtain the vendor's pricing documentation to ensure we understand their methodologies. We periodically review and approve the selection of our pricing vendors to ensure we are in agreement with their current methodologies. When markets are less active, brokers may rely more on models with inputs based on the information available only to the broker. Our internal investment management professionals, which include portfolio managers and analysts, monitor securities priced by brokers and evaluate their prices for reasonableness based on benchmarking to available primary and secondary market information. In weighing a broker quote as
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued

September 30, 2025
Note 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Continued
an input to fair value, we place less reliance on quotes that do not reflect the result of market transactions. We also consider the nature of the quote, particularly whether it is a bid or market quote. If prices in an inactive market do not reflect current prices for the same or similar assets, adjustments may be necessary to arrive at fair value. When relevant market data is unavailable, which may be the case during periods of market uncertainty, the income approach can, in suitable circumstances, provide a more appropriate fair value. During 2025, we have applied valuation approaches and techniques on a consistent basis to similar assets and liabilities and consistent with those approaches and techniques used at year end 2024.
Fixed Maturity and Equity Securities
We use observable and unobservable inputs in measuring the fair value of our fixed maturity and equity securities. For securities categorized as Level 1, fair values equal active Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine (TRACE) pricing or unadjusted market maker prices. For securities categorized as Level 2 or Level 3, inputs that may be used in valuing each class of securities at any given time period are disclosed below. Actual inputs used to determine fair values will vary for each reporting period depending on the availability of inputs which may, at times, be affected by the lack of market liquidity.

1Includes credit-tranched securities collateralized by loan obligations, auto loans, and other asset types
The management of our investment portfolio includes establishing pricing policy and reviewing the reasonableness of sources and inputs used in developing pricing. We review all prices that vary between multiple pricing vendors by a threshold that is outside a normal market range for the asset type. In the event we receive a vendor's market price that does not appear reasonable based on our market analysis, we may challenge the price and request further information about the assumptions and methodologies used by the vendor to price the security. We may change the selected price based on a better data source such as an actual trade. We also review all prices that did not change from the prior month to ensure that these prices are within our expectations. The overall valuation process for determining fair values may include adjustments to valuations obtained from our pricing sources when they do not represent a valid exit price. These adjustments may be made when, in our judgment and considering our knowledge of the financial conditions and industry in which the issuer operates, certain features of the financial instrument require that an adjustment be made to the value originally obtained from our pricing sources. These features may include the complexity of the financial instrument, the market in which the financial instrument is traded, counterparty credit risk, credit structure, concentration, or liquidity. Additionally, an adjustment to the price derived from a model typically reflects our judgment of the inputs that other participants in the market for the financial instrument being measured at fair value would consider in pricing that same financial instrument. In the event an asset is sold, we test the validity of the fair value determined by our valuation techniques by comparing the selling price to the fair value determined for the asset in the immediately preceding month end reporting period.
Certain of our investments do not have readily determinable market prices and/or observable inputs or may at times be affected by the lack of market liquidity. For these securities, we use internally prepared valuations, including valuations based on estimates of future profitability, to estimate the fair value. Additionally, we may obtain prices from independent third-party brokers to aid in establishing valuations for certain of these securities. Key assumptions used by us to determine fair value for these securities include risk free interest rates, risk premiums, performance of underlying collateral (if any), and other factors involving significant assumptions which may or may not reflect those of an active market.
The parameters and inputs used to validate a price on a security may be adjusted for assumptions about risk and current market conditions on a quarter to quarter basis, as certain features may be more significant drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Changes to inputs in valuations are not changes to valuation methodologies; rather, the inputs are modified to reflect direct or indirect impacts on asset classes from changes in market conditions.

At September 30, 2025, approximately 20.2 percent of our fixed maturity securities were valued using active trades from TRACE pricing or broker market maker prices for which there was current market activity in that specific security (comparable to receiving one binding quote). The prices obtained were not adjusted, and the assets were classified as Level 1.
The remaining 79.8 percent of our fixed maturity securities were valued based on non-binding quotes or other observable and unobservable inputs, as discussed below:
•61.9 percent of our fixed maturity securities were valued based on prices from pricing services that generally use observable inputs such as prices for securities or comparable securities in active markets in their valuation techniques. These assets were classified as Level 2.
•17.1 percent of our fixed maturity securities were valued based on one or more non-binding broker quotes, if validated by observable market data. When only one price is available, it is used if observable inputs and analysis confirms that it is appropriate. These assets, for which we were able to validate the price using other observable market data, were classified as Level 2.
•0.8 percent of our fixed maturity securities were valued based on prices of comparable securities, internal models, or pricing services or other non-binding quotes with no other observable market data. These assets were classified as either Level 2 or Level 3, with the categorization dependent on whether there was other observable market data.
Derivatives
Fair values for derivatives other than embedded derivatives in modified coinsurance arrangements are based on market quotes or pricing models and represent the net amount of cash we would have paid or received if the contracts had been settled or closed as of the last day of the period. Credit risk related to the counterparty and the Company is considered in determining the fair values of these derivatives. However, since we have collateralization agreements in place with each counterparty which limits our exposure, any credit risk is immaterial. Therefore, we determined that no adjustments for credit risk were required as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Fair values for our embedded derivative in a modified coinsurance arrangement are estimated using internal pricing models and represent the hypothetical value of the duration mismatch of assets and liabilities, interest rate risk, and third party credit risk embedded in the modified coinsurance arrangement.
We consider transactions in inactive markets to be less representative of fair value. We use all available observable inputs when measuring fair value, but when significant unobservable inputs are used, we classify these assets or liabilities as Level 3.
Private Equity Partnerships
Our private equity partnerships represent funds that are primarily invested in private credit, private equity, and real assets, as described below. Distributions received from the funds arise from income generated by the underlying investments as well as the liquidation of the underlying investments. There is generally not a public market for these investments.

Realized and unrealized investment gains and losses presented in the preceding tables represent gains and losses only for the time during which the applicable financial instruments were classified as Level 3. The transfers between levels resulted primarily from a change in observability of three inputs used to determine fair values of the securities transferred: (1) transactional data for new issuance and secondary trades, (2) broker/dealer quotes and pricing, primarily related to changes in the level of activity in the market and whether the market was considered orderly, and (3) comparable bond metrics from which to perform an analysis. For fair value measurements of financial instruments that were transferred either into or out of Level 3, we reflect the transfers using the fair value at the beginning of the period. We believe this allows for greater transparency, as all changes in fair value that arise during the reporting period of the transfer are disclosed as a component of our Level 3 reconciliation.

Other than market convention, the impact of isolated decreases in unobservable inputs will result in a higher estimated fair value, whereas isolated increases in unobservable inputs will result in a lower estimated fair value. The unobservable input for market convention is not sensitive to input movements. The projected liability cash flows used in the fair value measurement of our Level 3 embedded derivative are based on expected claim payments. If claim payments increase, the projected liability

cash flows will increase, resulting in a decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative. Decreases in projected liability cash flows will result in an increase in the fair value of the embedded derivative.
Fair Value Measurements for Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair values of financial instruments not carried at fair value are discussed as follows:
Mortgage Loans: Fair value of newly originated, seasoned performing, or sub-performing but likely to continue cash flowing loans are calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis. Loans’ cash flows are modeled and appropriately discounted by a rate based on current yields and credit spreads. For sub and non-performing loans where there is some probability the loan will not continue to pay, a price based approach would be used to estimate the loan’s value in the open market utilizing current transaction information from similar loans.
Policy Loans: Fair values for policy loans, net of reinsurance ceded, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and interest rates currently being offered to policyholders with similar policies. Carrying amounts for ceded policy loans, which equal $3,270.8 million and $3,313.6 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, approximate fair value and are reported on a gross basis in our consolidated balance sheets. A change in interest rates for ceded policy loans will not impact our financial position because the benefits and risks are fully ceded to reinsuring counterparties.
Miscellaneous Long-term Investments: Carrying amounts for tax credit partnerships equal the unamortized balance of our contractual commitments and approximate fair value. Our shares of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) common stock are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Long-term Debt: Fair values for long-term debt are obtained from independent pricing services or discounted cash flow analyses based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
FHLB Funding Agreements: Funding agreements with the FHLB represent cash advances used for the purpose of investing in either short-term investments, matched fixed maturity securities, or matched commercial mortgage loans. Carrying amounts approximate fair value.
Unfunded Commitments to Investment Partnerships: Unfunded equity commitments represent amounts that we have committed to fund investment partnerships. These commitments are legally binding, subject to the partnerships meeting specified conditions. Carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate fair value.

The carrying values of financial instruments such as short-term investments, cash and bank deposits, accounts and premiums receivable, accrued investment income, securities lending agreements, and short-term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. As such, these financial instruments are not included in the above chart.
Fair values for insurance contracts other than investment contracts are not required to be disclosed. However, the fair values of liabilities under all insurance contracts are taken into consideration in our overall management of interest rate risk, which seeks to minimize exposure to changing interest rates through the matching of investment maturities with amounts due under insurance contracts.

The unrealized losses on investment-grade fixed maturity securities principally relate to changes in interest rates or changes in market or sector credit spreads which occurred subsequent to the acquisition of the securities. Below-investment-grade fixed maturity securities are generally more likely to develop credit concerns than investment-grade securities. At September 30, 2025, the unrealized losses in our below-investment-grade fixed maturity securities were generally due to credit spreads in certain industries or sectors and, to a lesser extent, credit concerns related to specific securities. For each specific security in an unrealized loss position, we believe that there are positive factors which mitigate credit concerns and that the securities for

which we have not recorded a credit loss will recover in value. We have the ability and intent to continue to hold these securities to recovery of amortized cost less allowance for credit losses.
As of September 30, 2025, we held 825 individual investment-grade fixed maturity securities and 47 individual below-investment-grade fixed maturity securities that were in an unrealized loss position, of which 765 investment-grade fixed maturity securities and 33 below-investment-grade fixed maturity securities had been in an unrealized loss position continuously for over one year.
In determining when a decline in fair value below amortized cost of a fixed maturity security represents a credit loss, we evaluate the following factors:
•Whether we expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security
•Whether we intend to sell the security or will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis
•Whether the security is current as to principal and interest payments
•The significance of the decline in value
•Current and future business prospects and trends of earnings
•The valuation of the security's underlying collateral
•Relevant industry conditions and trends relative to their historical cycles
•Market conditions
•Rating agency and governmental actions
•Bid and offering prices and the level of trading activity
•Adverse changes in estimated cash flows for securitized investments
•Changes in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date
•Any other key measures for the related security
While determining whether a credit loss exists is a judgmental area, we utilize a formal, well-defined, and disciplined process to monitor and evaluate our fixed income investment portfolio, supported by issuer specific research and documentation as of the end of each period. The process results in a thorough evaluation of investments and the recording of credit losses on a timely basis for investments determined to have a credit loss. We calculate the allowance for credit losses of fixed maturity securities based on the present value of our best estimate of cash flows expected to be collected, discounted using the effective interest rate implicit in the security at the date of acquisition. When estimating future cash flows, we analyze the strength of the issuer’s balance sheet, its debt obligations and near-term funding arrangements, cash flow and liquidity, the profitability of its core businesses, the availability of marketable assets which could be sold to increase liquidity, its industry fundamentals and regulatory environment, and its access to capital markets.

At September 30, 2025, we had commitments of $61.4 million to fund private placement fixed maturity securities, the amount of which may or may not be funded.
Variable Interest Entities
We invest in variable interests issued by variable interest entities. These investments, which are passive in nature, include minority ownership interests in private equity partnerships, tax credit partnerships, and special purpose entities. Our maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying value of these investments in private equity partnerships, tax credit partnerships, and special purpose entities. For those variable interests that are not consolidated in our financial statements, we are not the primary beneficiary because we have neither the power to direct the activities that are most significant to economic performance nor the responsibility to absorb a majority of the expected losses. The determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary is performed at the time of our initial investment and at the date of each subsequent reporting period.
As of September 30, 2025, the carrying amount of our variable interest entity investments that are not consolidated in our financial statements was $1,456.5 million, comprised of $0.2 million of tax credit partnerships and $1,456.3 million of private equity partnerships. At December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of our variable interest entity investments that are not consolidated in our financial statements was $1,450.8 million, comprised of $0.2 million of tax credit partnerships and $1,450.6 million of private equity partnerships. These variable interest entity investments are reported as other long-term investments in our consolidated balance sheets.
Mortgage Loans
Our mortgage loan portfolio is well diversified by both geographic region and property type to reduce risk of concentration. All of our mortgage loans are collateralized by commercial real estate. When issuing a new loan, our general policy is not to exceed a loan-to-value ratio, or the ratio of the loan balance to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, of 75 percent. We update the loan-to-value ratios based on internal valuation of the collateral at least every three years for each loan, and properties undergo a general inspection at least every two years. Our general policy for newly issued loans is to have a debt

service coverage ratio greater than 1.25 times on a normalized 25 year amortization period. We update our debt service coverage ratios annually.
We carry our mortgage loans at amortized cost less an allowance for expected credit losses. The amortized cost of our mortgage loans was $2,145.4 million and $2,240.6 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The allowance for expected credit losses was $15.6 million and $16.1 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Interest income is accrued on the principal amount of the loan based on the loan's contractual interest rate. We report accrued interest income for our mortgage loans as accrued investment income on our consolidated balance sheets, and the amount of the accrued income was $6.8 million and $7.0 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The risk in our mortgage loan portfolio is primarily related to vacancy rates. Events or developments, such as economic conditions that impact the ability of the borrowers to ensure occupancy of the property, may have a negative effect on our mortgage loan portfolio, particularly to the extent that our portfolio is concentrated in an affected region or property type. An increase in vacancies increases the probability of default, which would negatively affect our expected losses in our mortgage loan portfolio.

We evaluate each of our mortgage loans individually for impairment and assign an internal quality rating based on a comprehensive rating system used to evaluate the risk of the loan. The factors we use to derive our internal quality ratings may include the following:
•Loan-to-value ratio based on internal valuation of the property
•Debt service coverage ratio based on current operating income
•Property location, including regional economics, trends, and demographics
•Age, condition, and construction quality of property
•Current and historical occupancy of property
•Lease terms relative to market
•Tenant size and financial strength
•Borrower's financial strength
•Borrower's equity in transaction
•Additional collateral, if any
Although all available and applicable factors are considered in our analysis, loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratios are the most critical factors in determining whether we will initially issue the loan and also in assigning values and determining impairment. We assign an overall rating to each loan using an internal rating scale of AA (highest quality) to B (lowest quality). We review and adjust, as needed, our internal quality ratings on an annual basis. This review process is performed more frequently for mortgage loans deemed to have a higher risk of delinquency.
We estimate an allowance for credit losses that we expect to incur over the life of our mortgage loans using a probability of default method. For each loan, we estimate the probability that the loan will default before its maturity (probability of default) and the amount of the loss if the loan defaults (loss given default). These two factors result in an expected loss percentage that is applied to the amortized cost of each loan to determine the expected credit loss. As we are the original underwriter of the mortgage loans, the amortized cost generally equals the principal amount of the loan. We measure losses on defaults of our mortgage loans as the excess amortized cost of the mortgage loan over the fair value of the underlying collateral in the event that we foreclose on the loan or over the expected future cash flows of the loan if we retain the mortgage loan until payoff. We do not purchase mortgage loans with existing credit impairments.
In estimating the probability of default, we consider historical experience, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future market conditions. We utilize our historical loan experience in combination with a large third-party industry database for a period of time that aligns with the average life of our loans based on the maturity dates of the loans and prepayment experience. Our model utilizes an industry database of the historical loss experience based on our actual portfolio characteristics such as loan-to-value, debt service coverage, collateral type, geography, and late payment history. In addition, because we actively manage our portfolio, we may extend the term of a loan in certain situations and will accordingly extend the maturity date in the estimate of probability of default. In estimating the loss given default, we primarily consider the type and value of collateral and secondarily the expected liquidation costs and time to recovery.
The primary market factors that we consider in our forecast of future market conditions are gross domestic product, unemployment rates, interest rates, inflation, commercial real estate values, household formation, and retail sales. We also forecast certain loan specific factors such as growth in the fair value and net operating income of collateral by property type. We include our estimate of these factors over a two-year period and for the remainder of the loans’ estimated lives, adjusted for estimated prepayments. Past the two-year forecast period, we revert to the historical assumptions ratably by the end of the fifth year of the loan after which we utilize only historical assumptions.
We utilize various scenarios to estimate our allowance for expected losses ranging from a base case scenario that reflects normal market conditions to a severe case scenario that reflects adverse market conditions. We will adjust our allowance each period to utilize the scenario or weighting of the scenarios that best reflects our view of current market conditions.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no commercial mortgage loans had been modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we granted an other-than-insignificant payment delay for a commercial mortgage loan with an amortized cost of $14.2 million, which deferred the principal payment for 24 months. This modification represents less than one percent of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio balance. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, all commercial loans which were previously modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties were current. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, no commercial mortgage loans had been modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties and all commercial mortgage loans which were previously modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties were current.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held one specifically identified impaired mortgage loan with a carrying value of $8.4 million and $9.2 million, respectively, that was past due regarding principal and/or interest payments. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, it was determined that this loan required further impairment, resulting in a $0.8 million write-off. No interest income was recognized on this loan following impairment.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no commercial mortgage loan foreclosures.
At September 30, 2025, we had $9.1 million of commitments to fund commercial mortgage loans. Consistent with how we determine the estimate of current expected credit losses for our funded mortgage loans each period, we estimate expected credit losses for loans that have not been funded but we are committed to fund at the end of each period. At September 30, 2025, we had a nominal amount of expected credit losses related to unfunded commitments on our consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2024, we had $0.1 million expected credit losses related to unfunded commitments on our consolidated balance sheets.
Investment Real Estate
Our real estate held for the production of income balance was $42.8 million and $59.5 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and the associated accumulated depreciation was $129.0 million and $129.7 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We monitor and assess our real estate investments for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that the real estate may be impaired.
Our held for sale real estate balance was $51.4 million and $41.9 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the associated accumulated depreciation was $61.6 million and $57.5 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the second quarter of 2025, we classified a property previously held for the production of income to held for sale. As of September 30, 2025, the property had a cost of $13.6 million and $4.1 million of accumulated depreciation. The estimated fair values less costs to sell are above the carrying values of the properties and we expect to close the sales of the properties within the next twelve months.
Transfers of Financial Assets
To manage our cash position more efficiently, we may enter into repurchase agreements with unaffiliated financial institutions. We generally use repurchase agreements as a means to finance the purchase of invested assets or for short-term general business purposes until projected cash flows become available from our operations or existing investments. Our repurchase agreements are typically outstanding for less than 30 days. We post collateral through our repurchase agreement transactions whereby the counterparty commits to purchase securities with the agreement to resell them to us at a later, specified date. The fair value of collateral posted is generally 102 percent of the cash received.
Our investment policy also permits us to lend fixed maturity securities to unaffiliated financial institutions in short-term securities lending agreements. These agreements increase our investment income with minimal risk. Our securities lending policy requires that a minimum of 102 percent of the fair value of the securities loaned be maintained as collateral. We may receive cash and/or securities as collateral under these agreements. Cash received as collateral is typically reinvested in short-term investments. If securities are received as collateral, we are not permitted to sell or re-post them.
As of September 30, 2025, the carrying amount of fixed maturity securities loaned to third parties under our securities lending program was $129.8 million, for which we received collateral in the form of cash and securities of $109.0 million and $26.0

million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of fixed maturity securities loaned to third parties under our securities lending program was $94.0 million, for which we received collateral in the form of cash and securities of $62.7 million and $34.8 million, respectively. We had no outstanding repurchase agreements at September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Certain of our U.S. insurance subsidiaries are members of regional FHLBs. As members of the FHLBs, our insurance subsidiaries have the ability to borrow on a collateralized basis from the FHLBs. Each member is required to hold a certain minimum amount of FHLB common stock as a condition of membership and additional amounts based on the amount of the borrowings. Advances received from the FHLB are primarily used for the purchase of short-term investments, matched fixed maturity securities, or matched commercial mortgage loans.

Offsetting of Financial Instruments
We enter into master netting agreements with each of our derivative's counterparties. These agreements provide for conditional rights of set-off upon the occurrence of an early termination event. An early termination event is considered a default, and it allows the non-defaulting party to offset its contracts in a loss position against any gain positions or payments due to the defaulting party. Under our agreements, default type events are defined as failure to pay or deliver as contractually agreed, misrepresentation, bankruptcy, or merger without assumption. See Note 5 for further discussion of collateral related to our derivative contracts.
We have securities lending agreements with unaffiliated financial institutions that post collateral to us in return for the use of our fixed maturity securities. A right of set-off exists that allows us to keep and apply collateral received in the event of default by the counterparty. Default within a securities lending agreement would typically occur if the counterparty failed to return the securities borrowed from us as contractually agreed. In addition, if we default by not returning collateral received, the counterparty has a right of set-off against our securities or any other amounts due to us.

1Our investment gains and losses on fixed maturity securities for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 were driven primarily by the Closed Block long-term care and Unum US individual disability reinsurance transaction (Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction) which resulted in a net gain of $137.6 million in the third quarter of 2025 and a net loss of $46.8 million in the first nine months of 2025. In addition, we realized a $19.1 million loss on sales of fixed maturity securities relating to funding of a dividend from one of our subsidiaries in the first nine months of 2025.
Note 5 - Derivative Financial Instruments
Purpose of Derivatives
We are exposed to certain risks relating to our ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are interest rate risk, risk related to matching duration for our assets and liabilities, foreign currency risk, credit risk, and equity risk. Historically, we have utilized current and forward interest rate swaps, current and forward currency swaps, forward benchmark interest rate locks, currency forward contracts, forward contracts on specific fixed income securities, and total return swaps. Transactions hedging interest rate risk are primarily associated with our individual and group long-term care and individual and group disability products. All other product portfolios are periodically reviewed to determine if hedging strategies would be appropriate for risk management purposes. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and used to reduce our exposure to interest rate and duration risk are as follows:
•Interest rate swaps were used to hedge interest rate risks and to improve the matching of assets and liabilities. An interest rate swap is an agreement in which we agree with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed rate and variable rate interest amounts. We used interest rate swaps to hedge the anticipated purchase of fixed maturity securities thereby protecting us from the potential adverse impact of declining interest rates on the associated policy reserves. We also used interest rate swaps to hedge the potential adverse impact of rising interest rates in anticipation of issuing fixed rate long-term debt.

September 30, 2025
Note 5 - Derivative Financial Instruments - Continued
•Forward benchmark interest rate locks are used to minimize interest rate risk associated with the anticipated purchase or associated future coupons of fixed maturity securities or the anticipated issuance of fixed rate long-term debt. A forward benchmark interest rate lock is a derivative contract without an initial investment where we and the counterparty agree to purchase or sell a specific benchmark interest rate fixed maturity bond at a future date at a predetermined price or yield.
Derivatives designated as either cash flow or fair value hedges and used to reduce our exposure to foreign currency risk are as follows:
•Foreign currency interest rate swaps are used to hedge the currency risk of certain foreign currency-denominated fixed maturity securities owned for portfolio diversification. Under these swap agreements, we agree to pay, at specified intervals, fixed rate foreign currency-denominated principal and interest payments in exchange for fixed rate payments in the functional currency of the operating segment.
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, which are used to reduce our exposure to foreign currency risk, volatility of the underlying deferred assets in our non-qualified defined contribution plan, and credit risk are as follows:
•Foreign currency interest rate swaps previously designated as hedges were used to hedge the currency risk of certain foreign currency-denominated fixed maturity securities owned for portfolio diversification. These derivatives were effective hedges prior to novation to a new counterparty. In conjunction with the novation, these derivatives were de-designated as hedges. We agree to pay, at specified intervals, fixed rate foreign currency-denominated principal and interest payments in exchange for fixed rate payments in the functional currency of the operating segment. We hold offsetting swaps wherein we agree to pay fixed rate principal and interest payments in the functional currency of the operating segment in exchange for fixed rate foreign currency-denominated payments.
•Foreign currency forward contracts are used to minimize foreign currency risk. A foreign currency forward is a derivative without an initial investment where we and the counterparty agree to exchange a specific amount of currencies, at a specific exchange rate, on a specific date. We use these forward contracts to hedge the currency risk arising from foreign-currency denominated investments.
•Total Return Swaps are used to economically hedge a portion of the liability related to our non-qualified defined contribution plan and hedge the economic risk from credit spreads and interest rate duration related to certain cash and cash equivalent amounts. A total return swap is an agreement in which we pay a floating rate of interest to the counterparty and receive the total return on a portfolio of mutual funds and/or exchange traded funds. The swaps are cash settled on the last day of every month and the notional is re-established each month based on plan participant actions or cash settled at maturity.

Derivative Risks
The basic types of risks associated with derivatives are market risk (that the value of the derivative will be adversely impacted by changes in the market, primarily changes in interest rates, exchange rates, and equity prices) and credit risk (that the counterparty will not perform according to the terms of the contract). The market risk of the derivatives should generally offset the market risk associated with the hedged financial instrument or liability. To help limit the credit exposure of the derivatives, we enter into master netting agreements with our counterparties whereby contracts in a gain position can be offset against contracts in a loss position. We also typically enter into bilateral, cross-collateralization agreements with our counterparties to help limit the credit exposure of the derivatives. These agreements require the counterparty in a loss position to submit acceptable collateral with the other counterparty in the event the net loss position meets or exceeds an agreed upon amount. Credit exposure on derivatives is limited to the value of those contracts in a net gain position, including accrued interest receivable less collateral held. At September 30, 2025 we had no credit exposure on derivatives. At December 31, 2024, we had $0.5 million credit exposure on derivatives. The table below summarizes the nature and amount of collateral received from and posted to our derivative counterparties.

| Fixed Maturity Securities | | 220.8 | | | 196.7 | |
| | $ | 220.8 | | | $ | 200.7 | |
See Note 4 for further discussion of our master netting agreements.
All of our derivative instruments contain provisions that require us to maintain specified issuer credit ratings and financial strength ratings. Should our ratings fall below these specified levels, we would be in violation of the provisions, and our derivatives counterparties could terminate our contracts and request immediate payment. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position was $259.6 million and $255.7 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Cash Flow Hedges
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $129.6 million and $139.1 million, respectively, notional amount of receive fixed, pay fixed, open current and forward foreign currency interest rate swaps to hedge fixed income foreign currency-denominated securities.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $2,634.0 million and $2,570.0 million, respectively, notional amount of forward benchmark interest rate locks to hedge the anticipated purchase of fixed maturity securities.
As of September 30, 2025, we expect to amortize approximately $3.1 million of net deferred gains on derivative instruments during the next twelve months. This amount will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings and reported on the same income statement line item as the hedged item. The income statement line items that will be affected by this amortization are net investment income and interest and debt expense. Additional amounts that may be reclassified from AOCI into earnings to offset the earnings impact of foreign currency translation of hedged items are not estimable.
As of September 30, 2025, we are hedging the variability of future cash flows associated with forecasted transactions through the year 2053.

Fair Value Hedges
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $768.7 million and $736.4 million, respectively, notional amount of receive fixed, pay fixed, open current and forward foreign currency interest rate swaps to hedge fixed income foreign currency-denominated securities.
The following table summarizes the amortized cost, carrying amount of hedged assets and the related cumulative basis adjustments related to our fair value hedges:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $6.4 million and $31.3 million, respectively, of the derivative instruments' gain (loss) related to cross-currency basis spread and forward points was excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $8.2 million and $9.5 million, respectively, of the derivative instruments' gain (loss) related to cross-currency basis spread and forward points was excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. There were no instances wherein we discontinued fair value hedge accounting due to a hedged firm commitment no longer qualifying as a fair value hedge.
Derivatives not Designated as Hedging Instruments
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held $119.7 million and $125.9 million notional amount of receive fixed, pay fixed, foreign currency interest rate swaps. These derivatives are not designated as hedges, and as such, changes in fair value related to these derivatives are reported in earnings as a component of net investment gain or loss.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held $49.1 million and $51.1 million, respectively, notional amount of foreign currency forwards to mitigate the foreign currency risk associated with specific securities owned. These derivatives are not designated as hedges, and as such, changes in fair value related to these derivatives are reported in earnings as a component of net investment gain or loss.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held $150.0 million and $128.9 million, respectively, notional amount of total return swaps to mitigate the volatility associated with changes in the fair value of the underlying notional assets in our non-qualified defined contribution plan. This derivative is an economic hedge not designated as a hedging instrument, and changes in fair value are reported as a component of other expenses in our income statement.

Note 5 - Derivative Financial Instruments - Continued
During the first quarter of 2025, we entered into a total return swap contract with a notional amount of $700.0 million to mitigate the economic risk from credit spreads and interest rate duration related to certain cash and cash equivalent amounts. This derivative was an economic hedge not designated as a hedging instrument, and changes in fair value were reported as realized gains or losses in our income statement. Expenses and dividend payments were reported in earnings as a component of net investment income. The total return swap was unwound and settled for cash in the second quarter of 2025. We held none of these total return swaps at December 31, 2024.
We have an embedded derivative in a modified coinsurance arrangement, for which we include in our net investment gains and losses a calculation intended to estimate the value of the option of our reinsurance counterparty to cancel the reinsurance contract with us. However, neither party can unilaterally terminate the reinsurance agreement except in extreme circumstances resulting from regulatory supervision, delinquency proceedings, or other direct regulatory action. Cash settlements or collateral related to this embedded derivative are not required at any time during the reinsurance contract or at termination of the reinsurance contract. There are no credit-related counterparty triggers, and any accumulated embedded derivative gain or loss reduces to zero over time as the reinsured business winds down.

Note 7 - Liability for Future Policy Benefits
Liabilities for future policy benefits represent the cost of claims that we estimate we will eventually pay to our policyholders which includes policy liabilities for claims not yet incurred and for claims that have been incurred or are estimated to have been incurred but not yet reported to us. Liabilities for future policy benefits also include the related expenses for our non interest-sensitive life and accident and health products. The liability for future policy benefits is calculated based on the present value of the estimated future policy benefits less the present value of estimated future net premiums collected. Net premiums represent the portion of the gross premium required to provide for all benefits and expenses, excluding acquisition costs or any costs that are required to be charged to expense as incurred. In calculating the liability for future policy benefits, our long-duration contracts are grouped into cohorts by product type and contract issue year.
The calculation of the liability for future policy benefits involves numerous assumptions including assumptions related to discount rate, lapses, mortality, and morbidity.
Cash flow assumptions are reviewed and updated, as needed, at least annually. Assumptions may be updated more frequently if necessary based on trending experience and future expectations. On a quarterly basis, cohort level cash flow measures are updated based on the emergence of actual experience.
The initial, also referred to as the original, discount rate assumptions established for each cohort are used to determine interest accretion. After policy issuance or policy renewal, the discount rate assumptions are updated quarterly and used to update the liability at each reporting date to the current discount rate. The weighted average current discount rate was 5.1 percent at September 30, 2025 and 5.3 percent at December 31, 2024 with the decrease due primarily to a decrease in U.S. Treasury rates. The weighted average current discount rate was 4.8 percent at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
During the third quarter of 2025, we completed our annual cash flow assumption review and updated certain of our assumptions used to develop the liability for future policy benefits which resulted in a net increase to the liability. The increase to the liability for future policy benefits was driven primarily by the impact of assumption updates in our Closed Block long-term care product line, partially offset by the impact of assumption updates in the Unum US group disability product line and our Unum US individual disability product line. The Closed Block long-term care assumption updates were primarily driven by the removal of morbidity and mortality improvement assumptions. Also contributing were higher expectations for claim incidence assumptions, and the removal of future assumptions related to new enrollments on existing group cases, partially offset by an increase to expected future premium rate approvals and higher expectations for claim terminations. The Unum US group disability product line assumption updates were primarily related to claim resolution assumptions driven by favorable claim recovery trends and higher mortality expectations, while the Unum US individual disability product line assumption updates were primarily driven by favorable claim incidence and recovery trends.
During the third quarter of 2024, we completed our annual cash flow assumption review and updated certain of our assumptions used to develop the liability for future policy benefits which resulted in a net decrease to the liability. The decrease to the liability for future policy benefits was driven primarily by assumption updates in our Closed Block long-term care product line, Unum US group disability product line, Unum US individual disability product line, and the Colonial Life segment. The Closed Block long-term care assumption updates were primarily driven by an increase to expected premium rate increase approvals within our existing premium rate increase program, partially offset by lower than expected persistency on group policies. The Unum US group disability product line assumption updates were primarily related to claim resolution assumptions driven by favorable claim recovery trends, while the Unum US individual disability product line assumption updates were primarily driven by favorable claim incidence trends. The Colonial Life segment assumption updates were driven by improved claim cost assumptions.

Actual variance from expected experience during the first nine months of 2025 and 2024 was due primarily to the Unum US group disability, Closed Block long-term care, and the Unum US group life and accidental death and dismemberment product lines. Also contributing to the comparison for the first nine months of 2025 was the Closed Block all other product line. During the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, the variance in the Unum US group disability product line was primarily due to higher than expected claim resolutions driven by recoveries. During the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, the variance in the Closed Block long-term care product line was driven primarily by higher than expected claim incidence. Also impacting the variance for the first nine months of 2025 was higher than expected mortality experience. Also impacting the variance for the first nine months of 2024 was lower than expected policy terminations, partially offset by higher than expected claim resolutions. During the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, the variance in the Unum US group life and accidental death and dismemberment product line was driven primarily by higher than expected claim resolutions driven by recoveries and lower than expected claim incidence. Also impacting the actual variances from expected experience during the first nine months of 2025 was higher than expected mortality experience in the Closed Block all other product line, driven by our individual disability product.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were certain cohorts within the Colonial Life segment, related to our cancer and critical illness product line, and within the Closed Block segment, related to our long-term care product line, for which net premiums exceeded gross premiums. The cohorts for which net premiums exceeded the gross premiums within the Closed Block segment resulted in a $425.6 million reduction to income before income tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and resulted in a $70.8 million increase to income before income tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the cohorts for which net premiums exceeded the gross premiums within the Colonial Life segment resulted in a $10.9 million reduction to income before income tax. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the cohorts for which net premiums exceeded the gross premiums within the Colonial Life segment had an immaterial impact to income before income tax. The impact to income for capped cohorts includes the impact of assumption updates. There were no other product lines with cohorts for which net premiums exceeded gross premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024.

Note 10 - Segment Information - Continued
We measure and analyze our segment performance on the basis of "adjusted operating revenue" and "adjusted operating income" or "adjusted operating loss", which differ from total revenue and income before income tax as presented in our consolidated statements of income due to the exclusion of investment gains and losses, certain impacts from reinsurance transactions, reserve assumption updates and certain other items specified in the reconciliations below. We believe adjusted operating revenue and adjusted operating income or loss are better performance measures and better indicators of the revenue and profitability and underlying trends in our business. These performance measures are in accordance with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, but they should not be viewed as a substitute for total revenue, income before income tax, or net income.
Investment gains or losses primarily include realized investment gains or losses, expected investment credit losses, impairment losses, and gains or losses on derivatives. Investment gains or losses depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding the underlying business of our segments. Our investment focus is on investment income to support our insurance liabilities as opposed to the generation of investment gains or losses. Although we may experience investment gains or losses which will affect future earnings levels, a long-term focus is necessary to maintain profitability over the life of the business since our underlying business is long-term in nature, and we need to earn the interest rates assumed in calculating our liabilities.
At times, we utilize reinsurance transactions to manage risk related to certain portions of our business including the exit of portions of our Closed Block businesses. As a result, we exclude the amortization of the cost of reinsurance and the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance that are recognized after the closing of these transactions. We also exclude the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance for these transactions. While the total equity impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance is neutral, the difference in original discount rates utilized for direct and ceded reserves results in a disproportionate earnings impact. We believe that the exclusion of these items provides a better view of our results from our ongoing businesses.
Cash flow assumptions used to calculate our liability for future policy benefits are reviewed at least annually and updated, as needed, with the resulting impact reflected in net income. While the effects of these assumption updates are recorded in the reporting period in which the review is completed, these updates reflect experience emergence and changes to expectations spanning multiple periods. We believe that by excluding the impact of reserve assumption updates we are providing a more comparable and consistent view of our results.
We may at other times exclude certain other items from our discussion of financial ratios and metrics in order to enhance the understanding and comparability of our operational performance and the underlying fundamentals, but this exclusion is not an indication that similar items may not recur and does not replace net income or net loss as a measure of our overall profitability.

Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit (OPEB) Plans
We sponsor several defined benefit pension and OPEB plans for our employees, including non-qualified pension plans. The U.S. qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans comprise the majority of our total benefit obligation and benefit cost. We maintain a separate defined benefit plan for eligible employees in our U.K. operation. The U.S. defined benefit pension plans were frozen and closed to new entrants on December 31, 2013, the OPEB plan was frozen and closed to new entrants on December 31, 2012, and the U.K. plan was frozen and closed to new entrants on December 31, 2002.

| Assuming Dilution | $ | 0.23 | | | $ | 3.46 | | | $ | 3.23 | | | $ | 7.52 | |
We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In computing earnings per share assuming dilution, we include potential common shares that are dilutive (those that reduce earnings per share). We use the treasury stock method to account for the effect of nonvested stock success units and nonvested restricted stock units on the computation of diluted earnings per share. Under this method, the potential common shares from nonvested stock success units and nonvested restricted stock units will each have a dilutive effect, as individually measured, when the average market price of Unum Group common stock during the period exceeds the grant price of the nonvested stock success units and nonvested restricted stock units. The outstanding nonvested stock success units and nonvested restricted stock units have grant prices ranging from $18.78 to $83.04. Potential common shares not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the impact would be antidilutive were 0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. There were zero and 0.2 million potential common shares that were antidilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
Common Stock
As part of our capital deployment strategy, we may repurchase shares of Unum Group's common stock, as authorized by our board of directors. The timing and amount of repurchase activity is based on market conditions and other considerations, including the level of available cash, alternative uses for cash, and our stock price.

As a part of our share repurchase program, we periodically enter into accelerated share repurchase agreements.

We simultaneously enter into a forward contract indexed to the price of Unum Group common stock, which subjects the transactions to a future price adjustment. Under the terms of the agreements, we are to receive, or be required to pay, a price adjustment based on the volume weighted average price of Unum Group common stock during the term of the agreement, less a discount. Any price adjustment payable to us is settled in shares of Unum Group common stock. Any price adjustment we would be required to pay

As a result of the final settlement occurring subsequent to December 31, 2024, we recorded a decrease of $80.3 million to additional paid-in capital within stockholders' equity on our consolidated balance sheet for the value of the shares held back by the counterparty as of December 31, 2024, which was reclassified to treasury stock in the first quarter of 2025 in connection with the final settlement of the agreement.
Preferred Stock
Unum Group has 25.0 million shares of preferred stock authorized with a par value of $0.10 per share. No preferred stock has been issued to date.
Note 13 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Commitments
See Notes 3 and 4 for further discussion on certain of our investment commitments.
Contingent Liabilities
We are a defendant in a number of litigation matters that have arisen in the normal course of business, including the matters discussed below. Further, state insurance regulatory authorities and other federal and state authorities regularly make inquiries and conduct investigations concerning our compliance with applicable insurance and other laws and regulations. Given the complexity and scope of our litigation and regulatory matters, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending investigations or legal proceedings or provide reasonable estimates of potential losses, except if noted in connection with specific matters.
In some of these matters, no specified amount is sought. In others, very large or indeterminate amounts, including punitive and treble damages, are asserted. There is a wide variation of pleading practice permitted in the United States courts with respect to requests for monetary damages, including some courts in which no specified amount is required and others which allow the plaintiff to state only that the amount sought is sufficient to invoke the jurisdiction of that court. Further, some jurisdictions permit plaintiffs to allege damages well in excess of reasonably possible verdicts. Based on our extensive experience and that of others in the industry with respect to litigating or resolving claims through settlement over an extended period of time, we believe that the monetary damages asserted in a lawsuit or claim bear little relation to the merits of the case, or the likely disposition value. Therefore, the specific monetary relief sought is not stated.
Unless indicated otherwise, reserves have not been established for litigation and contingencies. An estimated loss is accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
Claim Handling Matters
We and our insurance subsidiaries, in the ordinary course of our business, are engaged in claim litigation where disputes arise as a result of a denial or termination of benefits. Most typically these lawsuits are filed on behalf of a single claimant or

Unum Group and Subsidiaries
September 30, 2025
Note 13 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities - Continued
policyholder, and in some of these individual actions punitive damages are sought, such as claims alleging bad faith in the handling of insurance claims. For our general claim litigation, we maintain reserves based on experience to satisfy judgments and settlements in the normal course. We expect that the ultimate liability, if any, with respect to general claim litigation, after consideration of the reserves maintained, will not be material to our consolidated financial condition. Nevertheless, given the inherent unpredictability of litigation, it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain claim litigation involving punitive damages could, from time to time, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations in a period, depending on the results of operations for the particular period.
From time to time class action allegations are pursued where the claimant or policyholder purports to represent a larger number of individuals who are similarly situated. Since each insurance claim is evaluated based on its own merits, there is rarely a single act or series of actions which can properly be addressed by a class action. Nevertheless, we monitor these cases closely and defend ourselves appropriately where these allegations are made.
Note 14 - Debt and Other
Credit Facility
In April 2025, we and certain of our traditional U.S. life insurance subsidiaries, Unum Life Insurance Company of America (Unum America), Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company (Provident) and Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company, amended and restated the terms of our existing credit agreement providing for a five-year $500.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders. The revolving credit facility, which was previously set to expire in 2027, was extended through April 2030. We may request that the lenders’ aggregate commitments of $500.0 million under the facility be increased by up to an additional $200.0 million. Other of our domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries are permitted to join the credit facility as borrowers, subject to certain conditions. Any obligation of a subsidiary under the credit facility is subject to an unconditional guarantee by Unum Group. At September 30, 2025, there were no borrowed amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility and letters of credit totaling $0.4 million had been issued.
Borrowings under the credit facility are subject to financial covenants, negative covenants, and events of default that are customary. The two primary financial covenants include limitations based on our leverage ratio and consolidated net worth. We are also subject to covenants that limit subsidiary indebtedness.
Debt
In June 2024, we issued $400.0 million of 6.000% senior notes due 2054. The notes are callable at or above par and rank equally in the right of payment with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt. A portion of the net proceeds of the offering were used to repay the $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding indebtedness under our senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility which was repaid and subsequently terminated.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses on Premiums Receivable
At September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the allowance for expected credit losses on premiums receivable was $28.0 million, $27.6 million, and $26.8 million, respectively, on gross premiums receivable of $598.9 million, $691.7 million, and $584.1 million, respectively. The allowance for expected credit losses was generally consistent at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025. The increase in the allowance of $1.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was driven by an increase in the age of premium receivable and an increase in gross premiums receivable.
At September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the allowance for expected credit losses on premiums receivable was $27.1 million, $26.8 million, and $29.5 million, respectively, on gross premiums receivable of $630.4 million, $659.8 million and $612.4 million, respectively. The allowance for expected credit losses was generally consistent at September 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2024. The decrease of $2.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was driven primarily by improvements in the age of gross premiums receivable.

Closed Block Long-Term Care and Unum US Individual Disability Reinsurance Transaction
In February 2025, Unum America entered into a master transaction agreement with Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd. (Fortitude Re) which resulted in the execution of a coinsurance agreement (reinsurance agreement) during July 2025. This reinsurance agreement reinsures a portion of our Closed Block long-term care business and a portion of our Unum US individual disability business on a coinsurance basis to Fortitude Re effective January 2025. The reinsurance agreement represents approximately 21 percent of total Closed Block long-term care future policy benefits and approximately 15 percent of Unum US individual disability future policy benefits as of December 31, 2024.
Upon closing the transaction in July 2025, we transferred to Fortitude Re $953.5 million of cash which included an initial estimated ceding commission of $461.7 million, as well as fixed maturity securities with a fair value totaling $3,230.1 million and accrued investment income of $47.1 million. A final settlement, including the final ceding commission adjustment, is expected prior to the end of 2025. Fortitude Re has an A rating by A.M. Best Company and has established a collateralized trust account for the benefit of Unum America to secure its obligations.
As a result of this reinsurance agreement, we recognized the following:
•Net realized investment loss totaling $46.8 million during the nine months ended 2025 related to the reinsurance transaction, which included a $137.6 million gain related to the transfer of assets to Fortitude Re in the third quarter of 2025.
•Reinsurance recoverable of $3,620.5 million comprised of ceded reserves of $3,315.2 million related to the Closed Block long-term care product line and $305.3 million related to the Unum US individual disability product line.
•Cost of reinsurance of $846.5 million related to the Closed Block long-term care product line and a deferred gain on reinsurance related to the Unum US individual disability product line of $148.2 million
•Write-off of deferred acquisition costs related to the Unum US individual disability product line of $100.3 million which is included as a component of deferred gain on reinsurance.
The cost of reinsurance and deferred gain on reinsurance will be amortized into earnings over a period of 11 years and 20 years, respectively, consistent with expected future premiums. During the third quarter of 2025, subsequent to the execution of the agreement, we recognized $38.9 million in amortization expense related to the Closed Block long-term care product line and $4.6 million in other income related to the Unum US individual disability product line. The cost of reinsurance and the deferred gain on reinsurance are reported in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, within our consolidated balance sheets.
In July 2025, immediately prior to entering into the reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re, Unum America recaptured the aforementioned Closed Block long-term care business from Fairwind Insurance Company, an affiliated captive reinsurer, and assumed the aforementioned Unum US individual disability business from Provident, an affiliate.
Loss on Legal Settlement
During the third quarter of 2024, we incurred a loss of $15.3 million within our Corporate segment for the settlement of an employment-related matter. $4.9 million of the loss is recorded within compensation expense and $10.4 million of the loss is recorded within other expenses within the consolidated statements of income.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Executive Summary
Unum Group, a Delaware general business corporation, and its insurance and non-insurance subsidiaries, which collectively with Unum Group we refer to as the Company, operate in the United States, the United Kingdom, Poland, and, to a limited extent, in certain other countries. The principal operating subsidiaries in the United States are Unum Life Insurance Company of America (Unum America), Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company (Provident), The Paul Revere Life Insurance Company, Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company (Colonial Life & Accident), Unum Insurance Company, Starmount Life Insurance Company, in the United Kingdom, Unum Limited, and in Poland, Unum Zycie TUiR S.A. (Unum Poland). We are a leading provider of financial protection benefits in the United States and the United Kingdom. Our products include disability, life, accident, critical illness, dental and vision, and other related services. We market our products primarily through the workplace.
We have three principal operating segments: Unum US, Unum International, and Colonial Life. Our other operating segments are the Closed Block and Corporate segments. These segments are discussed more fully under "Segment Results" included herein in this Item 2.
The benefits we provide help the working world thrive throughout life's moments and protect people from the financial hardship of illness, injury, or loss of life. As a leading provider of employee benefits, we offer a broad portfolio of products and services through the workplace that provide support when it is needed most.
Specifically, we offer disability, life and voluntary products, on both individual and group bases, as well as provide certain fee-based services. These products and services, which can be sold stand-alone or combined with other coverages, help employers of all sizes attract and retain the talented and capable workforce they need to succeed while protecting the incomes and livelihood of their employees. We believe employer-sponsored benefits are the most effective way to provide workers with access to information and options to protect their financial stability. Working people and their families, particularly those at lower and middle incomes, are perhaps the most vulnerable in today's economy yet are often overlooked by many providers of financial products and services. For many of these workers and families, employer-sponsored benefits are the primary defense against the potentially catastrophic financial impact of death, illness, or injury.
We have established a corporate culture consistent with the social value of our products and services. We see important links between the obligations we have to all of our stakeholders, and we place a strong emphasis on operating with integrity and contributing to positive change in our communities. Accordingly, we are committed not only to meeting the needs of our customers who depend on us, but also to being accountable for our actions through sound and consistent business practices, a strong internal compliance program, a comprehensive risk management strategy, and an engaged employee workforce.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Part I, Item 1 contained in this Form 10-Q and with the "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" included below the Table of Contents, as well as the discussion, analysis, and consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Part I, Items 1 and 1A, and Part II, Items 7, 7A, and 8 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

See "Closed Block Long-Term Care and Unum US Individual Disability Reinsurance Transaction", "Loss on Legal Settlement", and "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" contained herein in this Item 2 and Note 14 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1 for further discussion and a reconciliation of these items.
Our Unum US segment reported income before income tax and net investment gains and losses of $486.8 million and $1,134.1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $506.9 million and $1,249.6 million in the same periods of 2024, which includes the reserve assumption updates that occurred during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024. Also included in our Unum US segment results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, are the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance and the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance both of which resulted from the Closed Block long-term care and Unum US individual disability reinsurance transaction (Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction). Excluding these items, our Unum US segment reported adjusted operating income of $334.9 million and $982.2 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $363.3 million and $1,106.0 million in the same periods of 2024, due to unfavorable benefits experience, partially offset by an increase in premium income. The benefit ratio, excluding reserve assumption updates and the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance, for our Unum US segment was 59.4 percent and 60.0 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to 58.5 percent and 57.8 percent in the same periods of 2024. Unum US sales increased 16.1 percent and decreased 3.0 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of
2025, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2024. See "Closed Block Long-Term Care and Unum US Individual Disability Reinsurance Transaction" contained herein for further discussion of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction.
Our Unum International segment reported income before income tax and net investment gains and losses of $44.2 million and $124.5 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $32.8 million and $112.7 million in the same periods of 2024, which includes the reserve assumption updates during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024. Excluding these items, our Unum International segment reported adjusted operating income of $38.8 million and $119.1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $40.3 million and $120.2 million in the same periods of 2024. Our Unum UK line of business reported adjusted operating income, which excludes the reserve assumption updates, of £26.3 million and £85.2 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to £29.5 million and £90.2 million in the same periods of 2024, due to unfavorable benefits experience, partially offset by higher premium income and net investment income. The benefit ratio for our Unum UK line of business, excluding the reserve assumption updates, was 73.8 percent and 72.0 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to 69.5 percent and 69.0 percent in the same periods of 2024. Unum International sales, as measured in U.S. dollars, increased 30.1 percent and 2.4 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2024. Unum UK sales, as measured in local currency, increased 27.3 percent and decreased 8.2 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2024.
Our Colonial Life segment reported income before income tax and net investment gains and losses of $125.5 million and $358.6 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $159.4 million and $390.0 million in the same periods of 2024, which includes the reserve assumption updates during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024. Excluding these items, our Colonial Life segment reported adjusted operating income of $116.6 million and $349.7 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, compared to $113.4 million and $344.0 million in the same periods of 2024, primarily due to higher premium income and net investment income, partially offset by higher operating expenses. Also impacting the comparison of the third quarter of 2025, compared to the same period of 2024, was unfavorable benefit experience. The benefit ratio, excluding the reserve assumption updates, for Colonial Life was 48.2 percent and 48.1 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to 47.6 percent and 48.0 percent in the same periods of 2024. Colonial Life sales increased 3.1 percent and 2.8 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2024.
Our Closed Block segment reported a loss before income tax and net investment gains and losses of $682.3 million and $685.1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to income before income tax and net investment gains and losses of $193.1 million and $234.1 million in the same periods of 2024, which includes the reserve assumption updates that occurred during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, the amortization of the cost of reinsurance, and the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance. Excluding these items, our Closed Block Segment reported adjusted operating income of $14.1 million and $42.4 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to $34.2 million and $110.1 million in the same periods of 2024, due primarily to a decrease in net investment income and premium income. Also impacting the comparison for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was unfavorable benefits experience. The net premium ratio for long-term care increased to 97.6 percent at September 30, 2025 from 94.5 percent at September 30, 2024. See "Closed Block Long-Term Care and Unum US Individual Disability Reinsurance Transaction" contained herein for further discussion of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction.
A rising interest rate environment could positively impact our yields on new investments, but could also increase unrealized losses in our current holdings. Alternatively, a declining interest rate environment could negatively impact our yields on new investments, but could also reduce unrealized losses in our current holdings. As of September 30, 2025, we do not hold any securities with a decline in fair value below amortized cost which we intend to sell nor any securities for which it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell before recovery in amortized cost for which an impairment loss was not recorded. The net unrealized loss on our fixed maturity securities was $1.7 billion at September 30, 2025, compared to $2.6 billion at December 31, 2024, with the decrease due primarily to a decrease in U.S. Treasury rates. The earned book yield on our investment portfolio was 4.44 percent for the first nine months of 2025 as well as for the full year ended December 31, 2024.
Additionally, a rising interest rate environment could result in reserve decreases while a declining interest rate environment could result in reserve increases, specific to our liability for future policy benefits, as the reserve discount rate assumptions used in the calculation of our liability are updated at each reporting date using a yield that is reflective of an upper-medium grade fixed income instrument, which is generally equivalent to a single-A interest rate matched to the duration of certain of our insurance liabilities. The change in discount rate assumptions on the liability for future policy benefits, net of reinsurance, due primarily to the decrease in U.S. Treasury rates during the first nine months of 2025, resulted in an increase to the liability for future policy benefits, net of reinsurance, of approximately $0.7 billion.
We believe our capital and financial positions are strong. At September 30, 2025, the risk-based capital (RBC) ratio for our traditional U.S. insurance subsidiaries, calculated on a weighted average basis using the NAIC Company Action Level formula, was approximately 455 percent, which is above our long-term expectation. We repurchased 10.3 million shares and 9.7 million shares of Unum Group common stock under our share repurchase program, during the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively, at a cost of $759.2 million and $504.8 million, respectively, including commissions and excise tax. Our weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, equaled 170.6 million and 186.9 million for the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 174.6 million and 190.2 million for the first nine months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, Unum Group and our intermediate holding companies had available holding company liquidity of $1,982.4 million that was held primarily in bank deposits, commercial paper, money market funds, corporate bonds, municipal bonds and asset backed securities. See Note 12 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1.
2025 and 2024 Reserve Assumption Updates
During the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, we completed our annual cash flow assumption review and updated certain of our assumptions used to develop the liability for future policy benefits. For more information see "Critical Accounting Estimates" included herein in this Item 2.
Closed Block Long-Term Care and Unum US Individual Disability Reinsurance Transaction
In February 2025, Unum America entered into a master transaction agreement with Fortitude Reinsurance Company Ltd. (Fortitude Re) which resulted in the execution of a coinsurance agreement during July 2025 (Fortitude Re Reinsurance transaction). This reinsurance agreement reinsures a portion of our Closed Block long-term care business and a portion of our Unum US individual disability business on a coinsurance basis to Fortitude Re effective January 2025. The reinsurance agreement represents approximately 21 percent of total Closed Block long-term care future policy benefits and approximately 15 percent of Unum US individual disability future policy benefits as of December 31, 2024.
Upon closing the transaction in July 2025, we transferred to Fortitude Re $953.5 million of cash, which included an initial estimated ceding commission of $461.7 million, as well as fixed maturity securities with a fair value totaling $3,230.1 million and accrued investment income of $47.1 million. A final settlement, including the final ceding commission adjustment, is expected prior to the end of 2025. Fortitude Re established and will maintain a collateralized trust account for the benefit of Unum America to secure its obligations under the reinsurance agreement. During the first nine months of 2025, we recognized a net realized investment loss totaling $46.8 million related to the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. Although we transferred a significant portion of our fixed maturity securities portfolio during the third quarter of 2025 as a part of this transaction, the overall credit profile of our remaining portfolio did not change.
As a result of this reinsurance agreement, we recognized the following:
•Reinsurance recoverable of $3,620.5 million comprised of ceded reserves of $3,315.2 million related to the Closed Block long-term care product line and $305.3 million related to the Unum US individual disability product line.
•Cost of reinsurance of $846.5 million related to the Closed Block long-term care product line and a deferred gain on reinsurance related to the Unum US individual disability product line of $148.2 million
•Write-off of deferred acquisition costs related to the Unum US individual disability product line of $100.3 million which is included as a component of deferred gain on reinsurance.
In July 2025, immediately prior to entering into the reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re, Unum America recaptured the aforementioned Closed Block long-term care business from Fairwind Insurance Company (Fairwind), an affiliated captive reinsurer, and assumed the aforementioned Unum US individual disability business from Provident, an affiliate.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has established model rules to ensure a minimum level of tax of 15 percent (Pillar Two) for multinational companies. Several jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Poland have adopted Pillar Two beginning on or after December 31, 2023. We have not recorded Pillar Two taxes as of September 30, 2025, and we do not expect material impacts in 2025. We will continue to monitor legislative developments and refine our estimates as necessary.
One Big Beautiful Bill Act
In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was signed into U.S. law. We do not expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations in 2025.
Loss on Legal Settlement
During the third quarter of 2024, we incurred a loss of $15.3 million before tax, or $12.1 million after tax, within our Corporate segment for the settlement of an employment-related matter. $4.9 million of the loss is recorded within compensation expense and $10.4 million of the loss is recorded within other expenses in the consolidated statements of income.
Consolidated Company Outlook
We believe our strategy of providing financial protection products at the workplace puts us in a position of strength. We continue to fulfill our corporate purpose of helping the working world thrive throughout life’s moments by providing excellent service to people at their time of need. Our strategy remains centered on growing our core businesses, through investing and transforming our operations and technology to anticipate and respond to the changing needs of our customers, expanding into new adjacent markets through meaningful partnerships and effective deployment of our capital across our portfolio.
In 2024, we experienced increased earnings driven by the underlying strength of our business and expect positive operating trends in our core businesses to continue in 2025. The products and services we provide deliver significant value to employers, employees and their families, and we believe this will help drive premium growth in 2025.
A rising interest rate environment could positively impact our yields on new investments, but could also increase unrealized losses in our current holdings. Alternatively, a declining interest rate environment could negatively impact our yields on new investments, but could also reduce unrealized losses in our current holdings. We also may continue to experience further volatility in miscellaneous investment income primarily related to changes in partnership net asset values as well as bond calls.
As part of our discipline in pricing and reserving, we continuously monitor emerging claim trends and interest rates. We will continue to take appropriate pricing actions on new business and renewals that are reflective of the current environment and may continue to utilize derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk.
Our business is well-diversified by geography within our markets, industry exposures and case size, and we continue to analyze and employ strategies that we believe will help us navigate the current environment. These strategies allow us to maintain financial flexibility to support the needs of our businesses, while also returning capital to our shareholders. We have strong core businesses that have a track record of generating significant free cash flow, and we will continue to invest in our operations and expand into adjacent markets where we can best leverage our expertise and capabilities to capture market growth opportunities as those opportunities emerge. We believe that consistent operating results, combined with the implementation of strategic initiatives and the effective deployment of capital, will allow us to meet our financial objectives.
Further discussion is included in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1 and in "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures," "Consolidated Operating Results," "Segment Results," "Investments," and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" contained herein in this Item 2.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
We analyze our performance using non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measure of "after-tax adjusted operating income" differs from net income as presented in our consolidated operating results and income statements prepared in accordance with GAAP due to the exclusion of investment gains or losses, certain impacts from reinsurance transactions, reserve assumption updates and certain other items as specified in the reconciliations below. We believe after-tax adjusted operating income is a better performance measure and better indicator of the profitability and underlying trends in our business.
Investment gains or losses primarily include realized investment gains or losses, expected investment credit losses, impairment losses, and gains or losses on derivatives. Investment gains or losses depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding the underlying business of our segments. Our investment focus is on investment income to support our insurance liabilities as opposed to the generation of investment gains or losses. Although we may experience investment gains or losses which will affect future earnings levels, a long-term focus is necessary to maintain profitability over the life of the business since our underlying business is long-term in nature, and we need to earn the interest rates assumed in calculating our liabilities.
At times, we utilize reinsurance transactions to manage risk related to certain portions of our business including the exit of portions of our Closed Block businesses. As a result, we exclude the amortization of the cost of reinsurance and the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance that are recognized after the closing of these transactions. We also exclude the impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance for these transactions. While the total equity impact of non-contemporaneous reinsurance is neutral, the difference in original discount rates utilized for direct and ceded reserves results in a disproportionate earnings impact. We believe that the exclusion of these items provides a better view of our results from our ongoing businesses.
Cash flow assumptions used to calculate our liability for future policy benefits are reviewed at least annually and updated, as needed, with the resulting impact reflected in net income. While the effects of these assumption updates are recorded in the reporting period in which the review is completed, these updates reflect experience emergence and changes to expectations spanning multiple periods. We believe that by excluding the impact of reserve assumption updates we are providing a more comparable and consistent view of our results.
We may at other times exclude certain other items from our discussion of financial ratios and metrics in order to enhance the understanding and comparability of our operational performance and the underlying fundamentals, but this exclusion is not an indication that similar items may not recur and does not replace net income or net loss as a measure of our overall profitability.
See "Executive Summary," and "Investments," and "Critical Accounting Estimates" contained herein in Item 2 and Note 4, Note 7, and Note 14 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1 for further discussion regarding the items specified in the reconciliation below.
A reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to our non-GAAP financial measures is as follows:

We measure and analyze our segment performance on the basis of "adjusted operating revenue" and "adjusted operating income" or "adjusted operating loss", which differ from total revenue and income before income tax as presented in our consolidated statements of income due to the exclusion of investment gains and losses, certain impacts from reinsurance transactions, reserve assumption updates and certain other items specified in the reconciliations below. These performance measures are in accordance with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, but they should not be viewed as a substitute for total revenue, income before income tax, or net income.

Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed in our financial statements.
The accounting estimates deemed to be most critical to our financial position and results of operations are those related to the liability for future policy benefits, valuation of investments, pension and postretirement benefit plans, income taxes, and contingent liabilities. The critical accounting estimates for which there were significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, are included below. For additional information on the accounting estimates for which there was not a significant change during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, refer to our significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in Part II, Item 8, and "Critical Accounting Estimates" in Part II, Item 7 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Liability for Future Policy Benefits
2025 and 2024 Cash Flow Assumption Review
During the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, we completed our annual cash flow assumption review which resulted in the following impacts to net income as a result of updating certain assumptions related to the liability for future policy benefits:

Cash Flow Assumption Update Impacts to Net Income | | $ | (377.8) | | | | $ | 282.6 | | | |
2025 Significant Cash Flow Assumption Updates:
The cash flow assumption updates in our Closed Block segment were primarily driven by the long-term care product line. The impact to income before income tax for this product line was $643.1 million. However, there were also updates to the assumptions for the portion of the long-term care product line which was included in the block ceded as a part of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. We increased our liability for future policy benefits by $82.0 million as a result of the assumption updates related to the ceded block with a corresponding increase in our consolidated balance sheet as a reinsurance recoverable. The total cash flow assumption updates in the long-term care product line increased our liability for future policy benefits due primarily to the removal of the morbidity and mortality improvement assumptions. Also contributing were higher expectations for claim incidence assumptions, and the removal of future assumptions related to new enrollments on existing group cases, partially offset by an increase to expected future premium rate approvals and higher expectations for claim terminations.
The cash flow assumption updates in our Unum US group long-term disability product line reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $105.8 million, due primarily to claim resolution assumptions driven by favorable claim recovery trends as well as higher mortality expectations.
The cash flow assumption updates in our Unum US individual disability product line reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $27.7 million, due primarily to favorable claim incidence and recovery trends.
2024 Significant Cash Flow Assumption Updates:
The cash flow assumption updates in our Unum US group long-term disability product line reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $90.0 million, due primarily to claim resolution assumptions driven by favorable claim recovery trends.
The cash flow assumption updates in our Unum US individual disability product line reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $52.8 million, due primarily to favorable claim incidence trends.
The cash flow assumption updates in our Colonial Life segment reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $46.0 million, due primarily to improved claim cost assumptions.
The cash flow assumption updates in our Closed Block segment were primarily driven by the long-term care product line which reduced our liability for future policy benefits by $174.1 million, due primarily to an increase to expected premium rate increase approvals within our existing premium rate increase program, partially offset by lower than expected persistency on group policies.
Sensitivity Analysis
We monitor our key assumptions and test the sensitivity of our liability for future policy benefits under a range of scenarios. For our product lines with a higher level of estimation uncertainty and that utilize the liability for future policy benefits valued at the original discount rate, this sensitivity analysis is completed at least annually and was last completed as of September 30, 2025. See "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" in Part II, Item 7A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for information regarding the sensitivity of the current discount rate used to remeasure the liability for future policy benefits at each reporting date.
In our estimation, scenarios based on certain variations in each of our assumptions for our Unum US group long-term disability product line could produce a change of approximately $80 million which represents 1.7 percent of our Unum US group disability liability for future policy benefits balance. Of the assumptions impacting the estimated change in the liability for future policy benefits, the largest contributor is the claim resolution rate for which we assumed a change of approximately 10 percent.
In our estimation, scenarios based on certain possible variations in each of our assumptions for our Colonial Life segment could produce a change of approximately $50 million which represents 2.5 percent of our Colonial Life liability for future policy benefits balance. Of the assumptions impacting the estimated change in the liability for future policy benefits, the largest contributor is the claim costs, for which we assumed a change of approximately 5 percent.
We also consider variability in our assumptions related to the long-term care liability for future policy benefits. In our estimation, scenarios based on certain variations in each of our assumptions could produce potential results as illustrated in the chart below. The liability for future policy benefits for long-term care is based upon a number of key assumptions, and each assumption has various factors which may impact the long-term outcome. Key assumptions with respect to active policy lapses and mortality, claim incidence and resolutions, and future premium rate increases must incorporate extended views of expectations for many years into the future. The liability for future policy benefits is highly sensitive to these estimates. Key assumptions and related impacts are also heavily interrelated in both their outcome and in their effects on the liability for future policy benefits. For example, changes in the view of morbidity and mortality might be mitigated by either potential future premium rate increases and/or morbidity improvements due to general improvement in health and/or medical breakthroughs. There is a potentially wide range of outcomes for each assumption and in totality. As a result, and given the size of the long-term care liability for future policy benefits in relation to the total liability for future policy benefits, our sensitivity analysis for long-term care reflects the potential impact to the present value of gross liability cash flows for future policy benefits for updates to our key assumptions. The sensitivity analysis related to our key assumptions for the long-term care liability for future policy benefits is as shown below. The impact of changes to these assumptions would partially be reflected in the period in which the assumptions are updated and partially across future periods. Our key assumptions for long-term care no longer include an expectation for incremental morbidity and mortality improvement. Given the significant changes in certain assumptions, the below sensitivity analysis was completed as of the third quarter of 2025.

The impact to current period liability for future benefits would be smaller in magnitude than the present value of gross liability for future policy benefits cash flows due to the updating of the net premium ratio. The current period liability for future policy benefits impact may be asymmetrical (i.e. larger for the unfavorable scenario) for some sensitivities if the assumption update causes the net premium ratio to be capped at 100 percent for any given cohort. The present value of gross liability for future policy benefits cash flows presented above is net of reinsurance while the current period liability for future policy benefits includes all direct business.
We believe that these sensitivities provide a reasonable estimate of the possible changes in liability for future policy benefit balances for those product lines where we believe it is possible that variability in the assumptions, in the aggregate, could result in a material impact on our liability for future policy benefit levels, but we record our liability for future policy benefits based on our long-term best estimate for our cohorts and these assumptions are reviewed and updated annually to reflect the current best estimates. Product lines that have long-term claim payout periods have a greater potential for significant variability in claim costs, either positive or negative. We closely monitor emerging experience and use these results to inform our view of long-term assumptions.

Fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly between the British pound sterling and the U.S. dollar for our U.K. operations, have an effect on our consolidated financial results. In periods when the pound weakens relative to the preceding period, translating pounds into dollars decreases current period results relative to the prior period. In periods when the pound strengthens, translating pounds into dollars increases current period results relative to the prior period.
The weighted average pound/dollar exchange rate for our Unum UK line of business was 1.348 and 1.312 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, and 1.314 and 1.278 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. If the 2024 results for our U.K. operations had been translated at the weighted average exchange rates of 2025, our adjusted operating revenue would have been higher by approximately $9 million and $20 million, respectively, in the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 and our adjusted operating income would have been higher by approximately $1 million and $3 million, respectively for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024. However, it is important to distinguish between translating and converting foreign currency. Except for a limited number of transactions, we do not actually convert pounds into dollars. As a result, we view foreign currency translation as a financial reporting item and not a reflection of operations or profitability in the U.K.
Premium income increased in each of our principal operating segments in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024, primarily due to higher sales, in-force block growth, and the impacts from the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in our Unum US individual disability product line that occurred in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by the expected run off in medical stop-loss in our Unum US segment. Also offsetting the premium income increase in our principal operating segments in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024, was the impact of ceding a portion of the Unum US individual disability product line as a part of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. Premium income continues to decline in our Closed Block segment, as expected, accelerated in the
third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to the impact of ceding a portion of the Closed Block long-term care product line as a part of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction.
Net investment income was lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due primarily to a decrease in the level of invested assets supporting the Closed Block long-term care product line as a result of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction and a decrease in the yield on invested assets, partially offset by higher investment income from inflation index-linked bonds held by Unum UK.
Our investment gains and losses on fixed maturity securities for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 were driven primarily by the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction which resulted in a net gain of $137.6 million in the third quarter of 2025 and a net loss of $46.8 million in the first nine months of 2025. In addition, we realized a $19.1 million loss on sales of fixed maturity securities relating to funding of a dividend from one of our subsidiaries in the first nine months of 2025. See Note 4 in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1 and "Investments" contained herein in this Item 2 for further information.
Other income is primarily comprised of fee-based service products in the Unum US segment, which include leave management services and administrative services only business, the underlying results and associated net investment income of certain assumed blocks of reinsured business in the Closed Block segment and the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance related to the Unum US individual disability product line as a part of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. Also included within other income for the first nine months of 2025 is a gain on the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in the Unum US individual disability product line.
Overall benefits experience was unfavorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 relative to the same periods of 2024. The consolidated benefit ratio, which includes the remeasurement gain or loss, was 86.5 percent and 75.8 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to 55.6 percent and 64.3 percent for the same prior year periods. Excluding the impact of the reserve assumption updates and non-contemporaneous reinsurance, the consolidated benefit ratio was 68.4 percent and 69.7 percent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, respectively, compared to 69.0 percent and 68.6 percent for the same prior year periods. The benefit ratio, which includes the remeasurement gain or loss, for each of our operating business segments is discussed more fully in "Segment Results" as follows.
Commissions were higher during the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 primarily due to the continued impacts from the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in our Unum US individual disability product line that occurred in the first quarter of 2025 as well as prior period sales in our principal operating business segments, partially offset by the impacts from the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction for our Unum US individual disability product line. The deferral of acquisition costs was higher during the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 primarily due to an increase in commissions and other sales-related costs in our Colonial Life segment. The amortization of deferred acquisition costs was generally consistent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024.
Other expenses and compensation expense, on a combined basis, increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to an increase in the amortization of the cost of reinsurance as a result of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction, an increase in operational investments in our business, and impacts from the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in our Unum US individual disability product line that occurred in the first quarter of 2025.
Our effective income tax rates for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 were 27.2 percent and 21.1 percent of income before income tax, respectively, compared to 20.7 percent and 20.8 percent for the same prior year periods. Our effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21 percent for the third quarter of 2025 primarily due to global intangible low taxed income tax and interest on uncertain tax positions, partially offset by tax exempt income and prior year tax return true up. Our effective income tax rate was generally consistent with the U.S. statutory rate of 21 percent for the first nine months of 2025, with interest on uncertain tax positions mostly offset by tax exempt income. Our effective income tax rates were generally consistent with the U.S. statutory rate of 21 percent for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024.
Consolidated Sales Results

Sales shown in the preceding chart generally represent the annualized premium income on new sales which we expect to receive and report as premium income during the next 12 months following or beginning in the initial quarter in which the sale is reported, depending on the effective date of the new sale. Sales do not correspond to premium income reported as revenue in accordance with GAAP. This is because new annualized sales premiums reflect current sales performance and what we expect to recognize as premium income over a 12 month period, while premium income reported in our financial statements is reported on an "as earned" basis rather than an annualized basis and also includes renewals and persistency of in-force policies written in prior years as well as current new sales.
Sales, persistency of the existing block of business, employment and salary growth, and the effectiveness of a renewal program are indicators of growth in premium income. Trends in new sales, as well as existing market share, also indicate the potential for growth in our respective markets and the level of market acceptance of price levels and new product offerings. Sales results may fluctuate significantly due to case size and timing of sales submissions.
See "Segment Results" as follows for a discussion of sales by segment.
Segment Results
Our reportable segments are comprised of the following: Unum US, Unum International, Colonial Life, Closed Block, and Corporate.
In describing our results, we may at times note certain items and exclude the impact on financial ratios and metrics to enhance the understanding and comparability of our operational performance and the underlying fundamentals, but this exclusion is not an indication that similar items may not recur. We also measure and analyze our segment performance on the basis of "adjusted operating revenue" and "adjusted operating income" or "adjusted operating loss", which differ from total revenue and income before income tax as presented in our consolidated statements of income due to the exclusion of investment gains and losses and certain other items. These performance measures are in accordance with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, but they should not be viewed as a substitute for total revenue, income before income tax, or net income. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" contained herein in this Item 2.
Unum US Segment
The Unum US segment is comprised of the group disability, group life and accidental death and dismemberment, and supplemental and voluntary lines of business. The group disability line of business includes long-term and short-term disability, medical stop-loss, and fee-based service products. The supplemental and voluntary line of business includes voluntary benefits, individual disability, and dental and vision products. These products, excluding medical stop-loss which is no longer actively marketed as of the third quarter of 2024, are marketed through our field sales personnel who work in conjunction with independent brokers and consultants.

| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Premium income decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to the expected run off in medical stop-loss premium and lower persistency, partially offset by an increase in premium income due to sales. Net investment income was lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to a decrease in the level of invested assets. Other income, which primarily relates to fee-based service products, was generally consistent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024.
The benefit ratio, excluding the impacts of the reserve assumption updates, was less favorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to lower recoveries in our long-term disability product line and
higher average claim size in our short-term disability product line. Also contributing to the unfavorable benefit ratio in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was higher incidence in our long-term disability product line.
Commissions were higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due primarily to sales. The deferral of acquisition costs in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 were generally consistent. The amortization of deferred acquisition costs decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to the composition of lapses across cohorts. The other expense ratio, which includes other income that is primarily related to fee-based service products, was generally consistent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024.

1Excludes the reserve assumption update that occurred during the third quarters of 2025 and 2024. |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Premium income increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to sales and in-force block growth, partially offset by lower persistency. Net investment income was lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to a lower level of invested assets. Also impacting the comparison for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 is a decrease in the yield on invested assets.
The benefit ratio, excluding the impacts of the reserve assumption updates, was less favorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to higher average claim size in our group life product line. Also
impacting the comparison for the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 is lower incidence in our accidental death and dismemberment product line.
Commissions and the deferral of acquisition costs were higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to sales. The amortization of deferred acquisition costs changed in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to the composition of lapses across cohorts. The other expense ratio was generally consistent in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024.

Premium income was higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to the continued impacts from the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in the individual disability product line, higher prior period sales in the voluntary benefits product line, and favorable persistency in the voluntary benefits and dental and vision product lines, partially offset by the impact of ceding a portion of the individual disability product line as a part of the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. Net investment income was lower in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 primarily due to a lower level of invested assets and a decrease in the yield on invested assets.
Other income, excluding the impact of the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance, was generally consistent in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. Other income, excluding the impact of the amortization of the deferred gain on reinsurance, was higher in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due primarily to a gain on the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in the individual disability product line in the first quarter of 2025.
The benefit ratio, excluding the impacts of the reserve assumption updates, for voluntary benefits was unfavorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due primarily to unfavorable benefit experience in the accident product. Also impacting the comparison of the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 is unfavorable benefit experience in the hospital indemnity and critical illness products. The benefit ratio, excluding the impacts of non-contemporaneous reinsurance and the reserve assumption updates, for the individual disability product line was favorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to higher claim resolutions resulting from higher recoveries and mortality. Also impacting the comparison for the individual disability product line for the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 is higher claim incidence. The benefit ratio for the dental and vision product line was unfavorable in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to higher claim incidence.
Commissions were higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due primarily to the continued impacts from the recapture of a previously ceded block of business in the individual disability product line, partially offset by the impacts from the Fortitude Re reinsurance transaction. The deferral of acquisition costs was higher in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due primarily to higher sales in the individual disability product line.

Group sales increased during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due primarily to higher sales to new customers in the large case market, which we define as employee groups with greater than 2,000 employees. Group sales decreased during the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due to the impact of no sales of our medical stop-loss product in the first nine months of 2025 as it was no longer actively marketed as of the third quarter of 2024, as well as lower sales to existing customers in the large case market and lower sales to new and existing customers in the core market, partially offset by higher sales to new customers in the large case market. The sales mix in the group market sector for the first nine months of 2025 was approximately 59 percent core market and 41 percent large case market.
Voluntary benefits sales increased during the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 due primarily to higher sales to new and existing customers in the large case market, partially offset by lower sales to new customers in the core market. Voluntary benefits sales decreased during the first nine months of 2025 due primarily to lower sales to new and existing customers in the large case market, partially offset by higher sales to new and existing customers in the core market. Individual disability sales, which are primarily concentrated in the multi-life market, increased during the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to higher sales to new and existing customers. Dental and vision sales decreased during the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 due to lower sales to new customers.
Segment Outlook
We remain committed to offering consumers a broad set of financial protection benefit products at the worksite. During 2025, we will continue to invest in a unique customer experience defined by simplicity, empathy, and deep industry expertise through the increased utilization of digital capabilities and technology to enhance enrollment, underwriting, the client administration experience, and claims processing. In addition, we will focus on strategically driven sales by enhancing the connectivity, alignment, and support for brokers and technology partners, including integration with human capital management systems. With respect to smaller employers, we will continue to provide a comprehensive set of consumer-focused products, enhance our
distribution model, and utilize our digital tools to bring industry leading enrollment capabilities and a fully integrated customer experience. Our differentiated offerings and market leading leave management services provide substantial growth opportunities, particularly with larger employers, and stronger persistency in our core products. We believe our active client management, integrated customer experience across our product lines, and strong risk management, will enable us to continue to grow our market over the long-term.
We expect strong adjusted operating income in 2025 with premium growth driven by new sales and persistency. We expect the group disability market to remain competitive which may impact our pricing and renewal premium levels. We expect strong group disability claim experience to continue in 2025, driven by operational performance. We also expect group life claim experience to be mostly stable, but may experience some quarterly claims volatility. We expect a decline in our supplemental and voluntary line of business adjusted operating income following the closing of the reinsurance transaction with Fortitude Re. We expect a slight increase in our operating expense ratio as we continue to invest in our people and capabilities.
A rising interest rate environment could positively impact our yields on new investments, but could also increase unrealized losses in our current holdings. Alternatively, a declining interest rate environment could negatively impact yields on new investments, but could also reduce unrealized losses in our current holdings. Our net investment income may continue to be impacted by volatility in miscellaneous investment income.
As part of our discipline in pricing and reserving, we continuously monitor emerging claim trends and interest rates. We will continue to take appropriate pricing actions on new business and renewals that are reflective of the current environment.
We continuously monitor key indicators to assess our risks and adjust our business plans accordingly.
As previously discussed, we entered into a reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re to cede a portion of our individual disability business. For further discussion, see “Executive Summary" contained herein in Item 2 and Note 14 of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" contained herein in Item 1.
