Why does Vanguard report zero ownership after January 12, 2026?

Because Vanguard completed an internal realignment on 01/12/2026 and certain subsidiaries now report separately under SEC Release No. 34-39538, so The Vanguard Group no longer reports beneficial ownership of those securities.

Does this filing indicate an open-market sale of CNO shares by Vanguard?

No. The filing attributes the change to an internal reporting realignment; it describes reallocation of reporting responsibilities under SEC Release No. 34-39538 rather than an open-market sale or purchase.

Will CNO ownership now appear elsewhere after Vanguard's realignment?
