Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Corebridge Financial reported total revenues of $3.964 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026, up from $3.572 billion a year earlier. Net loss attributable to Corebridge narrowed to $53 million (basic and diluted loss per share of $0.11) from a net loss of $664 million.
Comprehensive loss attributable to Corebridge was $1.029 billion, driven largely by a $976 million other comprehensive loss tied to investment valuations, discount rate changes and hedging items. Total assets were $407.1 billion and total liabilities were $395.5 billion, leaving total equity of $11.5 billion as of March 31, 2026.
The company highlighted an all‑stock merger agreement with Equitable Holdings. Each Corebridge share is expected to convert into 1.0000 share and each Equitable share into 1.55516 shares of a new parent company, with post‑closing ownership of approximately 51% for Corebridge shareholders and 49% for Equitable shareholders, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals and expected to close by year‑end 2026.
Positive
- Transformative all-stock merger: Corebridge agreed to combine with Equitable Holdings in an all-stock transaction where Corebridge shareholders are expected to own approximately 51% of the new parent company and Equitable shareholders 49%, signaling a major strategic reshaping of the business.
Negative
- None.
Insights
Corebridge shows smaller net loss but heavy OCI hit while planning a major merger.
Corebridge generated $3.964 billion of revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, yet still posted a net loss attributable to Corebridge of $53 million. That loss is far smaller than the prior-year net loss of $664 million, helped by lower net realized losses.
Economic performance looks steadier on an operating basis: adjusted pre-tax operating income reached $629 million, only modestly below $710 million a year earlier. However, other comprehensive loss of $976 million from investment and discount‑rate movements pulled comprehensive loss attributable to Corebridge down to $1.029 billion, showing continued balance-sheet sensitivity to markets.
The planned all‑stock merger with Equitable Holdings is structurally significant. Corebridge shareholders are expected to own about 51% of the combined company and Equitable shareholders about 49%, with fixed share exchange ratios of 1.0000 and 1.55516. Closing is targeted by year‑end 2026, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals, so subsequent filings will be important to understand integration progress, regulatory milestones and any updated synergy or cost‑saving expectations.

market risk benefits financial
"valuation of market risk benefits (“MRBs”), including ceded MRBs, related to guaranteed benefit features"
Market risk benefits are the extra returns or advantages investors expect or receive for taking on broad, system‑wide swings in the overall market — essentially the premium for bearing risk that cannot be eliminated by diversification. This matters because it helps investors weigh whether the potential higher gains justify larger price swings, guides how portfolios are balanced, and sets expectations for compensation when choosing riskier market exposures; think of it as the extra pay you demand for riding a roller‑coaster instead of a calm bus ride.
Fortitude Re funds withheld payable financial
"Fortitude Re funds withheld payable (portion measured at fair value: 2026 - $ 3,663 ; 2025 - $ 3,795 )"
Adjusted Pre-Tax Operating Income financial
"The CODM assesses segment performance and allocates capital and resources to the segments based on an evaluation of each segments’ adjusted revenues and APTOI."
modified coinsurance financial
"modified coinsurance (“modco”) reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re transfer the economics of the invested assets"
Modified coinsurance is a reinsurance arrangement where an insurance company shifts the financial obligation for a block of policies to a reinsurer while keeping the underlying investment assets on its own books; the reinsurer reimburses claims and provides capital relief. For investors, it can change reported reserves, risk exposure and reported capital without selling the policies outright — like moving a loan’s repayment responsibility to another party while keeping the collateral, which affects balance-sheet strength and cash flow visibility.
variable interest entities financial
"variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary."
A variable interest entity (VIE) is a business that a company controls through contracts or special arrangements instead of owning a majority of its shares, like steering a puppet without holding its ticket. Investors care because these arrangements can hide who really bears the financial risks and rewards, affect how assets and liabilities appear on financial statements, and create extra legal or enforcement uncertainty that can change the value and risk of an investment.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) includes statements, which, to the extent they are not statements of historical or present fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements, and any related oral statements, can be identified by the use of terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “seeks,” “aims,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “targets,” “plans,” “assumes,” “enable,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “goals,” “guidance,” “formidable,” “preliminary,” “objective,” “continue,” “drive,” “improve,” “superior,” “robust,” “positioned,” “resilient,” “vision,” “potential,” “immediate,” “on track,” “progress”, “is optimistic,” and similar expressions or the negative of those expressions or verbs. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or outcomes. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but instead represent only our beliefs regarding future events, which may by their nature be inherently uncertain, and some of which may be outside our control. These statements appear in a number of places throughout this Quarterly Report and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, assumptions or current plans and expectations concerning, among other things, financial position and future financial condition; results of operations; expected operating and non-operating relationships; ability to meet debt service obligations and financing plans; statements about the potential repurchases of shares of common stock; product sales; distribution channels; retention of business; investment yields and spreads; investment portfolio and ability to manage asset-liability cash flows; financial goals and targets; prospects; growth strategies or expectations; laws and regulations; customer retention; the outcome (by judgment or settlement) and costs of legal, administrative or regulatory proceedings, investigations or inspections, including, without limitation, collective, representative or class action litigation; geopolitical events; and the impact of prevailing capital markets and economic conditions.
This Quarterly Report also includes forward-looking statements about the expected timing and completion of the proposed transaction between the Company and Equitable Holdings, Inc. (“Equitable Holdings”) (the “Proposed Transaction”), the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction, including estimated synergies and projected cost savings, and plans and expectations for the Company, Equitable Holdings or their new parent company after completion of the Proposed Transaction.
Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Key factors include, among others, the ability to repurchase shares (if the Company decides to do so) within the expected timing or at all; the ability to complete the Proposed Transaction on the timeframe or on the terms currently anticipated or at all, including due to a failure to obtain requisite stockholder, stock exchange, regulatory, governmental or other approvals; risks related to difficulties, inabilities or delays in integrating the parties’ businesses; the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction, including estimated run-rate expense synergies and projected cost savings at the times, and to the extent, anticipated, as well as expected operating earnings and cashflow generation; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the right of either or both parties to terminate the merger agreement; the potential impact of the announcement or consummation of the Proposed Transaction on the Company or Equitable Holdings’ stock price and on their respective business, contractual and operational relationships (including with regulatory bodies, employees, suppliers, clients and competitors); risks related to business disruptions from the Proposed Transaction that may harm the business or current plans and operations of either or both parties, including diversion of management time from ongoing business operations; the risk that the Proposed Transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of either or both parties to hire and retain key personnel; the parties’ ability to raise debt on favorable terms or at all; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company, Equitable Holdings, their new parent company or their respective directors; restrictions on the conduct of the Company and Equitable Holdings’ respective businesses prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction and on each of their ability to pursue alternatives to the Proposed Transaction; the possibility that the Proposed Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events, or unforeseen or unknown liabilities; the deterioration of economic conditions; geopolitical tensions; the potential impact of a downgrade in the Company or Equitable Holdings’ Insurer Financial Strength ratings or credit ratings or of the new parent company of the Company and Equitable Holdings following completion of the Proposed Transaction; other factors that may affect future results of the Company and Equitable Holdings; and management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors.
Any forward-looking statements included herein are not a guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates reflected or implied in such forward-looking statements, including, among others, risks related to:
•changes in interest rates and changes to credit spreads;

1. Overview and Basis of Presentation
OVERVIEW
Corebridge Financial, Inc. (“Corebridge Parent”) is a leading provider of retirement solutions and life insurance products in the United States. Our primary business operations consist of sales of individual and group annuities, life insurance products to individuals and institutional markets products. Corebridge Parent common stock, par value $0.01 per share, is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:CRBG). The terms “Corebridge,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” mean Corebridge Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context refers to Corebridge Parent only. Subsidiaries of Corebridge Parent include: AGC Life Insurance Company (“AGC”), American General Life Insurance Company (“AGL”), The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (“VALIC”), The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (“USL”), Corebridge Insurance Company of Bermuda, Ltd. (“CRBG Bermuda”) and SAFG Capital LLC and its subsidiaries.
As of March 31, 2026, Corebridge’s two largest shareholders, Nippon Life Insurance Company, a mutual company organized under the laws of Japan (“Nippon”) and Argon Holdco LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blackstone, owned approximately 26.7 % and 13.6 % of the outstanding Corebridge Parent common stock, respectively.
Corebridge Financial and Equitable Holdings Merger
On March 26, 2026, we and Equitable Holdings, Inc. (“Equitable”) announced the entering into of a definitive agreement to combine in an all-stock merger.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, we and Equitable will form a new parent company and each outstanding share of our common stock will be exchanged for the right to receive 1.0000 shares of the new parent company’s common stock, and each outstanding share of Equitable common stock will be exchanged for the right to receive 1.55516 shares of the new parent company’s common stock.
The merger will be effected through a merger agreement, by and among us, Equitable, Mountain Holding, Inc., a newly formed corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Corebridge (“New Equitable”), Palisade Holding, Inc., a newly formed corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Equitable (“Corebridge Merger Sub”), and Marcy Holding, Inc., a newly formed corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Equitable (“Equitable Merger Sub”). The mechanics of the merger are as follows: (a) Corebridge Merger Sub merging with and into us, with us surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Equitable (the “Corebridge Merger”); (b) immediately following the consummation of the Corebridge Merger, Equitable Merger Sub merging with and into Equitable, with Equitable surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Equitable (the “Equitable Merger” and, together with the Corebridge Merger, the “Mergers”); and (c) as of the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”), changing the name of HoldCo to “Equitable Holdings, Inc.”
Following the closing of the transaction, our shareholders will own approximately 51 % of the combined company and Equitable shareholders will own approximately 49 % of the combined company.
The transaction is expected to close by year-end 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval of shareholders of both companies.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements present the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company.
These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of Corebridge Parent, its controlled subsidiaries (generally through a greater than 50% ownership of voting rights and voting interests) and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. Equity investments in entities that we do not consolidate, including corporate entities in which we have significant influence and partnership and partnership-like entities in which we have more than minor influence over the operating and financial policies, are accounted for under the equity method unless we have elected the fair value option.
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (‘‘GAAP’’). The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, including eliminations of material intercompany accounts and transactions, necessary in the opinion of management for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Accounting policies that we believe are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions are considered our critical accounting estimates and are related to the determination of:
•fair value measurements of certain financial assets and liabilities;
•valuation of market risk benefits (“MRBs”), including ceded MRBs, related to guaranteed benefit features (collectively known as “GMxBs”), of variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity products;
•valuation of embedded derivative liabilities for fixed index annuity, registered index-linked annuity and index universal life products;
•valuation of future policy benefit liabilities and recognition of remeasurement gains and losses;
•reinsurance assets, including the allowance for credit losses;
•allowance for credit losses primarily on loans and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities; and
•income tax assets and liabilities, including recoverability of our net deferred tax asset and the predictability of future tax operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset.
These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially affected.
VARIABLE ANNUITY REINSURANCE TRANSACTION
On June 25, 2025, AGL and USL (the “Ceding Companies” and each, a “Ceding Company”), entered into a Master Transaction Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Corporate Solutions Life Reinsurance Company, an Iowa-domiciled insurance company (“CSLR”), pursuant to which, among other things, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, at the applicable closing of the transactions contemplated thereby, AGL and CSLR, as well as USL and the CSLR, have entered into coinsurance and modified coinsurance agreements, (together the “Reinsurance Agreements” and each, a “Reinsurance Agreement”). Under the terms of the Reinsurance Agreements, the applicable Ceding Company ceded to CSLR 100 % of the applicable reinsured liabilities with respect to (i) in-force individual variable annuity contracts issued prior to the effective time of the Reinsurance Agreements, and (ii) only with respect to AGL, new individual variable annuity contracts issued after the effective date of the Reinsurance Agreement. In addition, AGL sold all of its outstanding membership interests in SunAmerica Asset Management, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“SAAMCo”), to Venerable Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Venerable”).
Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASU”) to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs.
FUTURE APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued an ASU to improve the disclosures about a company’s business expenses. The standard requires disclosure about specific types of expenses, such as depreciation, intangible asset amortization and employee compensation, included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The standard is allowed to be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We are assessing the impact of this standard.
We report our results of operations consistent with the manner in which our Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), reviews the business to assess performance and allocate resources.
We report our results of operations as five reportable segments:
•Individual Retirement – consists of fixed annuities, fixed index annuities and registered index-linked annuities.
•Group Retirement – consists of recordkeeping, plan administrative and compliance services, financial planning and advisory solutions offered in-plan, along with proprietary and limited non-proprietary annuities, advisory and brokerage products offered out-of-plan.
Corebridge | First Quarter 2026 Form 10-Q 12
TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 3. Segment Information
•Life Insurance – consists of term and universal life insurance products in the United States.
•Institutional Markets – consists of stable value wrap (“SVW”) products, structured settlement and pension risk transfer (“PRT”) annuities, guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”) and Corporate Markets products that include corporate- and bank-owned life insurance (“COLI-BOLI”), private placement variable universal life and private placement variable annuity products.
•Corporate and Other – consists primarily of:
–corporate expenses not attributable to our other segments;
–interest expense on financial debt;
–results of our consolidated investment entities;
–institutional asset management business, which includes managing assets for non-consolidated affiliates;
–results of our legacy insurance lines ceded to Fortitude Re; and
–results of our individual variable annuity business that is reinsured to CSLR.
The closing with respect to the AGL Reinsurance Agreement occurred on August 1, 2025. Accordingly, retrospectively, effective in the third quarter of 2025, our individual variable annuity business previously reported in the Individual Retirement segment, is now included within Corporate and Other, consistent with how the CODM assesses its performance and allocates its resources. Prior periods presented herein have been recast to conform to the new segment presentation. Additionally, the results of operations from the variable annuity business have been excluded from Adjusted Pre-Tax Operating Income (“APTOI”) as they are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.
The CODM assesses segment performance and allocates capital and resources to the segments based on an evaluation of each segments’ adjusted revenues and APTOI. Adjusted revenues are derived by excluding certain items from total revenues. APTOI is derived by excluding certain items from income from operations before income tax. These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and adjustments that we believe to be common to the industry. Legal entities are attributed to each segment based upon the predominance of activity in that legal entity.
APTOI excludes the impact of the following items:
Fortitude Re related adjustments:
The modified coinsurance (“modco”) reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re transfer the economics of the invested assets supporting the reinsurance agreements to Fortitude Re. Accordingly, the net investment income on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and the net realized gains (losses) on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets are excluded from APTOI. Similarly, changes in the Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative are also excluded from APTOI.
The ongoing results associated with the reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re have been excluded from APTOI as these are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.
Investment-related adjustments:
APTOI excludes “Net realized gains (losses)”, except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments. Net realized gains (losses), except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments, are excluded as the timing of sales on invested assets or changes in allowances depend largely on market credit cycles and can vary considerably across periods. In addition, changes in interest rates may create opportunistic scenarios to buy or sell invested assets. Our derivative results, including those used to economically hedge insurance liabilities, or those recognized as embedded derivatives at fair value, are also included in Net realized gains (losses) and are similarly excluded from APTOI except earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedges or for asset replication. Earned income on such economic hedges is reclassified from Net realized gains and losses to specific APTOI line items based on the economic risk being hedged (e.g., Net investment income and Interest credited to policyholder account balances).
Market Risk Benefits adjustments:
Certain of our variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity contracts contain guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (“GMWBs”) and/or guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDBs”) which are accounted for as MRBs. Changes in the fair value of these MRBs (excluding changes related to our own credit risk), including certain rider fees attributed to the MRBs are excluded from APTOI. MRBs related to the variable annuity business subject to the reinsurance agreements with CSLR are reported in the “Businesses exited through reinsurance” line item.
Businesses exited through reinsurance:
Corebridge | First Quarter 2026 Form 10-Q 13
TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 3. Segment Information
Represents the results of businesses that have been or will be economically exited through reinsurance. This includes MRBs, along with changes in the fair value of derivatives used to hedge MRBs which are recorded through “Change in the fair value of MRBs, net.” The results of operations from these businesses have been excluded from APTOI as they are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.
Other adjustments:
Other adjustments represent all other adjustments that are excluded from APTOI and includes the net pre-tax operating income (losses) from noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment entities. The excluded adjustments include, as applicable:
•restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization;
•non-recurring costs associated with the implementation of non-ordinary course legal or regulatory changes or changes to accounting principles;
•separation costs;
•non-operating litigation reserves and settlements;
•loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, if any;
•losses from the impairment of goodwill, if any; and
•income and loss from divested or run-off business, if any.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS ON A RECURRING BASIS
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are measured and classified in accordance with a fair value hierarchy consisting of three “levels” based on the observability of valuation inputs:
•Level 1: Fair value measurements based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that we have the ability to access for identical assets or liabilities. Market price data generally is obtained from exchange or dealer markets. We do not adjust the quoted price for such instruments.
•Level 2: Fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
•Level 3: Fair value measurements based on valuation techniques that use significant inputs that are unobservable. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3. The circumstances for using these measurements include those in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Therefore, we must make certain assumptions about the inputs a hypothetical market participant would use to value that asset or liability.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 4. Fair Value Measurements
Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair values of positions classified in Level 3 in the tables above. As a result, the unrealized gains (losses) on instruments held at March 31, 2026 and 2025 may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable inputs (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities).
Transfers of Level 3 Assets and Liabilities
We record transfers of assets and liabilities into or out of Level 3 at their fair values as of the end of each reporting period, consistent with the date of the determination of fair value. The Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) included in net income (loss) or OCI as shown in the table above excludes $17 million and $4 million of net gains (losses) related to assets transferred into Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and includes $(12 ) million and $14 million of net gains (losses) related to assets transferred out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Transfers of Level 3 Assets
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, transfers into Level 3 assets primarily included certain investments in private placement corporate debt, CMBS, CLO and ABS. Transfers of private placement corporate debt and certain ABS into Level 3 assets were primarily the result of limited market pricing information that required us to determine fair value for these securities based on inputs that are adjusted to better reflect our own assumptions regarding the characteristics of a specific security or associated market liquidity. The transfers of investments in CMBS, CLO and certain ABS into Level 3 assets were due to diminished market transparency and liquidity for individual security types.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, transfers out of Level 3 assets primarily included private placement and other corporate debt, CMBS, RMBS, CLO, ABS and certain investments in municipal securities. Transfers of certain investments in municipal securities, corporate debt, RMBS, CMBS and CLO and ABS out of Level 3 assets were based on consideration of market liquidity as well as related transparency of pricing and associated observable inputs for these investments. Transfers of certain investments in private placement corporate debt and certain ABS out of Level 3 assets were primarily the result of using observable pricing information that reflects the fair value of those securities without the need for adjustment based on our own assumptions regarding the characteristics of a specific security or the current liquidity in the market.
Transfers of Level 3 Liabilities
There were no significant transfers of derivative or other liabilities into or out of Level 3 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ABOUT LEVEL 3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The table below presents information about the significant unobservable inputs used for recurring fair value measurements for certain Level 3 instruments, and includes only those instruments for which information about the inputs is reasonably available to us, such as data from independent third-party valuation service providers and from internal valuation models. Because input information from third parties with respect to certain Level 3 instruments (primarily CLO/ABS) may not be reasonably available to us, balances shown below may not equal total amounts reported for such Level 3 assets and liabilities:

(a)Represents discount rates, estimates and assumptions that we believe would be used by market participants when valuing these assets and liabilities.
(b)The weighted averaging for fixed maturity securities is based on the estimated fair value of the securities. Because the valuation methodology for embedded derivatives within policyholder contract deposits and MRBs uses a range of inputs that vary at the contract level over the cash flow projection period, management believes that presenting a range, rather than weighted average, is a more meaningful representation of the unobservable inputs used in the valuation.
(c)Information received from third-party valuation service providers. The ranges of the unobservable inputs for constant prepayment rate, loss severity and constant default rate relate to each of the individual underlying mortgage loans that comprise the entire portfolio of securities in the RMBS and CLO securitization vehicles and not necessarily to the securitization vehicle bonds (tranches) purchased by us. The ranges of these inputs do not directly correlate to changes in the fair values of the tranches purchased by us because there are other factors relevant to the fair values of specific tranches owned by us, including, but not limited to, purchase price, position in the waterfall, senior versus subordinated position and attachment points.
(d)The Fortitude Re funds withheld payable has been excluded from the above table. As discussed in Note 7, the Fortitude Re funds withheld payable is created through modco and funds withheld reinsurance arrangements where the investments supporting the reinsurance agreements are withheld by and continue to reside on Corebridge’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This embedded derivative is valued as a total return swap with reference to the fair value of the invested assets held by Corebridge. Accordingly, the unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation of the embedded derivative are a component of the invested assets supporting the reinsurance agreements that are held on Corebridge’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(e)The ranges for these inputs vary due to the different GMWB product specification and policyholder characteristics across in-force policies. Policyholder characteristics that affect these ranges include age, policy duration, and gender.
(f)Mortality inputs are shown as multipliers of the 2012 Individual Annuity Mortality Basic table.
(g)The partial withdrawal utilization unobservable input range shown applies only to policies with GMWB riders.
(h)The NPA applied as a spread over risk-free curve for discounting.
(i)The fixed index annuities embedded derivative associated with index credits related to the contracts with guaranteed product features included in policyholder contract deposits was $2.0 billion and $2.0 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The ranges of reported inputs for obligations of states, municipalities and political subdivisions, corporate debt, RMBS, CLO/ABS and CMBS valued using a discounted cash flow technique consist of one standard deviation in either direction from the value-weighted average. The preceding table does not give effect to our risk management practices that might offset risks inherent in these Level 3 assets and liabilities.
Interrelationships Between Unobservable Inputs
We consider unobservable inputs to be those for which market data is not available and that are developed using the best information available to us about the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Relevant inputs vary depending on the nature of the instrument being measured at fair value. The following paragraphs provide a general description of significant unobservable inputs along with interrelationships between and among the significant unobservable inputs and their impact on the fair value measurements. In practice, simultaneous changes in assumptions may not always have a linear effect on the inputs discussed below. Interrelationships may also exist between observable and unobservable inputs. Such relationships have not been included in the discussion below. For each of the individual relationships described below, the inverse relationship would also generally apply.
Fixed Maturity Securities
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of fixed maturity securities is yield. The yield is affected by the market movements in credit spreads and U.S. Treasury yields. The yield may be affected by other factors, including constant prepayment rates, loss severity and constant default rates. In general, increases in the yield would decrease the fair value of investments, and conversely, decreases in the yield would increase the fair value of investments.

MRBs and Embedded Derivatives within Policyholder Contract Deposits
For MRBs (including ceded MRBs) and embedded derivatives, the assumptions for unobservable inputs vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for valuation purposes. The following are applicable unobservable inputs:
•Long-term equity volatilities represent equity volatility beyond the period for which observable equity volatilities are available. Increases in assumed volatility will generally increase the fair value of both the projected cash flows from rider fees as well as the projected cash flows related to benefit payments. Therefore, the net change in the fair value of the liability may be either a decrease or an increase, depending on the relative changes in projected rider fees and projected benefit payments.
•Equity and interest rate correlation estimates the relationship between changes in equity returns and interest rates in the economic scenario generator used to value our MRBs. In general, a higher positive correlation assumes that equity markets and interest rates move in a more correlated fashion, which generally increases the fair value of the liability. Only our fixed index annuities with a GMWB rider are subject to the equity and interest correlation assumption. Other policies such as accumulation fixed index annuity and index universal life products do not use a correlation assumption.
•Base lapse rate assumptions are determined by company experience and judgment and are adjusted at the contract level using a dynamic lapse function, which reduces the base lapse rate when the contract is in-the-money (when the contract holder’s guaranteed value, as estimated by the company, is worth more than their underlying account value). Lapse rates are also generally assumed to be lower in periods when a surrender charge applies. Increases in assumed lapse rates will generally decrease the fair value of the liability as fewer policyholders would persist to collect guaranteed benefit amounts.
•Mortality rate assumptions, which vary by age and gender, are based on company experience and include a mortality improvement assumption. Increases in assumed mortality rates will decrease the fair value of the GMWB liability, while lower mortality rate assumptions will generally increase the fair value of the liability because guaranteed withdrawal payments will be made for a longer period of time and generally exceed any decrease in guaranteed death benefits.
•Utilization assumptions estimate the timing when policyholders with a GMWB will elect to utilize their benefit and begin taking withdrawals. The assumptions may vary by the type of guarantee, tax-qualified status, the contract’s withdrawal history and the age of the policyholder. Utilization assumptions are based on company experience, which includes partial withdrawal behavior. Increases in assumed utilization rates will generally increase the fair value of the liability.
•Non-performance or “own credit” risk adjustment used in the valuation of MRBs and embedded derivatives, which reflects a market participant’s view of our claims-paying ability by incorporating a different spread (the “NPA spread”) to the curve used to discount projected cash flows. When corporate credit spreads widen, the change in the NPA spread generally reduces the fair value of the MRBs and embedded derivatives, resulting in a gain in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) or Net realized gains (losses), respectively, and when corporate credit spreads narrow or tighten, the change in the NPA spread generally increases the fair value of the MRBs and embedded derivatives, resulting in a loss in AOCI or Net realized gains (losses), respectively. Additionally, the nonperformance risk assumption includes the counterparty credit risk used in the fair value measurement of ceded market risk benefits associated with reinsurance arrangements for certain individual variable annuities, which is determined using the current market credit spreads based on the counterparty credit rating.
•Policyholder behavior assumptions including lapses, withdrawals, benefit utilization and mortality incorporate a risk margin that a market participant would require to accept the risk and uncertainty of the projected cash flows.
•For embedded derivatives, option budgets estimate the expected long-term cost of options used to hedge exposures associated with index price changes. The level of option budgets determines future costs of the options, which impacts the growth in account value and the valuation of embedded derivatives.
Embedded Derivatives within Reinsurance Contracts
The fair value of embedded derivatives associated with funds withheld reinsurance contracts is determined based upon a total return swap technique with reference to the fair value of the investments held by Corebridge related to Corebridge’s funds withheld payable. The fair value of the underlying assets is generally based on market observable inputs using industry standard valuation techniques. The valuation also requires certain significant inputs, which are generally not observable, and accordingly, the valuation is considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

At March 31, 2026, we held 12,907 individual fixed maturity securities that were in an unrealized loss position and for which no allowance for credit losses has been recorded (including 8,390 individual fixed maturity securities that were in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more). At December 31, 2025, we held 11,154 individual fixed maturity securities that were in an unrealized loss position and for which no allowance for credit losses has been recorded (including 8,986 individual fixed maturity securities that were in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or more). We did not recognize the unrealized losses in earnings on these fixed maturity securities at March 31, 2026 because it was determined that such losses were due to non-credit factors. Additionally, we neither intend to sell the securities nor do we believe that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. For fixed maturity securities with significant declines, we performed fundamental credit analyses on a security-by-security basis, which included consideration of credit enhancements, liquidity position, expected defaults, industry and sector analysis, forecasts and available market data.

PLEDGED INVESTMENTS
Secured Financing and Similar Arrangements
We enter into secured financing transactions whereby certain securities are sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements), in which we transfer securities in exchange for cash, with an agreement by us to repurchase the same or substantially similar securities. Our secured financing transactions also include those that involve the transfer of securities to financial institutions in exchange for cash (securities lending agreements). In all of these secured financing transactions, the securities transferred by us (pledged collateral) may be sold or repledged by the counterparties. These agreements are recorded at their contracted amounts plus accrued interest, other than those that are accounted for at fair value.
Pledged collateral levels are monitored daily and are generally maintained at an agreed-upon percentage of the fair value of the amounts borrowed during the life of the transactions. In the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral under these secured financing transactions, we may be required to transfer cash or additional securities as pledged collateral under these agreements. At the termination of the transactions, we and our counterparties are obligated to return the amounts borrowed and the securities transferred, respectively.

There were no reverse repurchase agreements at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Insurance – Statutory and Other Deposits
The total carrying value of cash and securities deposited by our insurance subsidiaries under requirements of regulatory authorities or other insurance-related arrangements, including certain annuity-related obligations and certain reinsurance treaties, was $11.8 billion and $12.1 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Other Pledges and Restrictions
Certain of our subsidiaries are members of Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”) and such membership requires the members to own stock in these FHLBs. We owned an aggregate of $303 million and $306 million of stock in FHLBs at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In addition, our subsidiaries have pledged securities available-for-sale and residential loans associated with borrowings and funding agreements from FHLBs, with a fair value of $4.1 billion and $8.2 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2026 and $2.9 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2025.
Certain GICs recorded in policyholder contract deposits with a carrying value of $63 million and $48 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, have provisions that require collateral to be posted or payments to be made by us upon a downgrade of our Insurer Financial Strength (“IFS”) ratings. The actual amount of collateral required to be posted to the counterparties in the event of such downgrades and the aggregate amount of payments that we could be required to make depend on market conditions, the fair value of outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at and after the time of the downgrade. The fair value of securities pledged as collateral with respect to these obligations was approximately $119 million and $121 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. This collateral primarily consists of securities of the U.S. government and government-sponsored entities and generally cannot be repledged or resold by the counterparties.

As part of our collateralized reinsurance transactions, we pledge collateral to cedants as contractually required. The fair value of securities pledged as excess collateral with respect to these obligations was approximately $637 million and $650 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Additionally, assets supporting these transactions are held solely for the benefit of the cedants and insulated from obligations owed to our other policyholders and general creditors.

Interest income is not accrued when payment of contractual principal and interest is not expected. Any cash received on impaired loans is generally recorded as a reduction of the current carrying amount of the loan. Accrual of interest income is generally resumed when delinquent contractual principal and interest are repaid or when a portion of the delinquent contractual payments are made, and the ongoing required contractual payments have been made for an appropriate period. As of March 31, 2026, $171 million and $0.9 billion of residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans, respectively, are in nonaccrual status. As of December 31, 2025, $128 million and $0.9 billion of residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans, respectively, were placed on nonaccrual status.
Accrued interest is presented separately and is included in Accrued investment income on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2026, accrued interest receivable was $124 million and $155 million associated with residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, accrued interest receivable was $107 million and $175 million associated with residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans, respectively.
A significant majority of commercial mortgages in the portfolio are non-recourse loans and, accordingly, the only guarantees are for specific items that are exceptions to the non-recourse provisions. It is therefore extremely rare for us to have cause to enforce the provisions of a guarantee on a commercial real estate or mortgage loan.
Nonperforming loans are generally those loans where payment of contractual principal or interest is more than 90 days past due. Nonperforming loans were approximately 1

LOAN MODIFICATIONS
The allowance for credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded on each asset upon asset origination or acquisition. The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for credit losses is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. We use a probability of default/loss given default model to determine the allowance for credit losses for our commercial and residential mortgage loans. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification.
Because the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses utilizing the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance, a change to the allowance for credit losses is generally not recorded upon modification.
When modifications are executed, they often will be in the form of principal forgiveness, term extensions, interest rate reductions, or some combination of any of these concessions. When principal is forgiven, the amortized cost basis of the asset is written off against the allowance for credit losses. The amount of the principal forgiveness is deemed to be uncollectible; therefore, that portion of the loan is written off, resulting in a reduction of the amortized cost basis and a corresponding adjustment to the allowance for credit losses.
We assess whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty based on a variety of factors, including the borrower’s current default on any of its outstanding debt, the probability of a default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without the modification, the insufficiency of the borrower’s forecasted cash flows to service any of its outstanding debt (including both principal and interest), and the borrower’s inability to access alternative third party financing at an interest rate that would be reflective of current market conditions for a non-troubled debtor.
Corebridge did not modify any loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31,2026 and 2025.
There were no loans that defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that had been previously modified with borrowers experiencing financial difficulties.
Corebridge closely monitors the performance of the loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. All loans with borrowers with financial difficulty that have been modified in the previous 12 months are current and performing in conjunction with its modified terms.
In the ordinary course of business, our companies may use ceded reinsurance to limit potential losses, provide additional capacity for growth, minimize exposure to significant risks or to provide greater diversification of our businesses. We may also use assumed reinsurance to diversify our business. Reinsurance premiums ceded are recognized when due, along with corresponding benefits. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are presented as a component of Reinsurance assets. In addition to contracts which qualify for reinsurance accounting under U.S. GAAP, the Company also manages its risks through contracts which follow deposit accounting.
Certain of our reinsurers have sought rate increases on certain YRT agreements. We have disputed, and expect to continue disputing, any requested rate increases under these agreements. These disputes may lead to and have resulted in arbitration over the terms of the reinsurance contracts. To the extent reinsurers seek retroactive premium increases, our practice is to assess and accrue our current estimate of probable loss with respect to these matters when appropriate.
On August 1, 2025 and January 2, 2026, AGL and USL closed their coinsurance and modco reinsurance agreements with CSLR, effective as of August 1, 2025 and January 1, 2026, respectively. Under the terms of these reinsurance agreements, AGL and USL reinsured 100 % of their individual variable annuity contracts. The majority of the variable annuity contracts are considered investment contracts as they do not contain significant insurance risk; therefore, the reinsurance of such contracts are accounted for under deposit accounting. As of the closing dates, we transferred to the reinsurer $2.1 billion of assets primarily consisting of fixed maturity securities supporting the general account liabilities, net of a ceding commission. At inception, we recorded a net deposit asset of $2.8 billion, which includes a $2.2 billion deferred gain, reported in Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net deposit asset was $2.7 billion and $2.5 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The deferred gain is amortized into income over the estimated remaining life of the reinsured contracts. Additionally, $48.7 billion of separate account liabilities were ceded under the modco portion of the agreement. Refer to Note 1 for additional information related to the reinsurance agreement.

FORTITUDE RE
AGL and USL have modco reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re, a registered Class 4 and Class E reinsurer in Bermuda. VALIC’s modco agreement with Fortitude Re was recaptured effective January 1, 2025, resulting in a $45 million charge to pre-tax earnings.
In the modco arrangement, the investments supporting the reinsurance agreements are withheld by, and therefore continue to reside on the balance sheet of, the ceding company (i.e., Corebridge), thereby creating an obligation for the ceding company to pay the reinsurer (i.e., Fortitude Re) at a later date. Additionally, as Corebridge maintains ownership of these investments, Corebridge maintains its existing accounting for these assets (e.g., the changes in fair value of available-for-sale securities will be recognized within OCI). Corebridge has established a funds withheld payable to Fortitude Re while simultaneously establishing a reinsurance asset representing liabilities for the insurance coverage that Fortitude Re has assumed. The funds withheld payable contains an embedded derivative and changes in fair value of the embedded derivative related to the funds withheld payable are recognized in earnings through realized gains (losses). This embedded derivative is considered a total return swap with contractual returns that are attributable to various assets and liabilities associated with these reinsurance agreements. As the majority of the invested assets supporting the modco are fixed income securities that are available-for-sale, there is a mismatch between the accounting for the embedded derivative as its changes in fair value are recorded through net income while changes in the fair value of the fixed maturity securities available-for-sale are recorded through OCI.
There is a diverse pool of assets supporting the funds withheld arrangements with Fortitude Re. The following summarizes the composition of the pool of assets:

(a)The derivative assets and liabilities have been presented net of cash collateral. The derivative assets and liabilities supporting the Fortitude Re funds withheld arrangements had a fair market value of $0 million and $562 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2026. The derivative assets and liabilities supporting the Fortitude Re funds withheld arrangements had a fair market value of $0 million and $615 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025.

A VIE is a legal entity that does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or is structured such that equity investors lack the ability to make significant decisions relating to the entity’s operations through voting rights or do not substantively participate in the gains and losses of the entity. Consolidation of a VIE by its primary beneficiary is not based on majority voting interest but is based on other criteria discussed below.
We enter into various arrangements with VIEs in the normal course of business and consolidate the VIEs when we determine we are the primary beneficiary. This analysis includes a review of the VIE’s capital structure, related contractual relationships and terms, nature of the VIE’s operations and purpose, nature of the VIE’s interests issued and our involvement with the entity. When assessing the need to consolidate a VIE, we evaluate the design of the VIE as well as the related risks to which the entity was designed to expose the variable interest holders.
The primary beneficiary is the entity that has both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE. While also considering these factors, the consolidation conclusion depends on the breadth of our decision-making ability and our ability to influence activities that significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE.

Additionally, Corebridge is a passive investor in certain investment vehicles that securitized certain secured loans, bank loans and residential mortgage loans. The notes held by Corebridge and their related fair values are included in the available-for-sale disclosures that are reported in Notes 4 and 5. As of March 31, 2026, the total VIE assets of these securitizations are $2.5 billion, of which Corebridge’s maximum exposure to loss including unfunded commitments is $2.5 billion. As of December 31, 2025, the total VIE assets of these securitizations are $2.5 billion, of which Corebridge’s maximum exposure to loss is $2.5 billion.
We use derivatives and other financial instruments as part of our financial risk management programs and as part of our investment operations. Interest rate derivatives (such as interest rate futures, swaps, options and bond forwards), equity derivatives (such as equity futures, swaps and options) and fixed maturity securities are used to economically mitigate interest rate risk, equity risk and credit spread exposure associated with MRBs and embedded derivatives contained in insurance contract liabilities. Interest rate derivatives are used to manage interest rate risk associated with fixed maturity securities as well as other interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Equity derivatives are used to economically mitigate financial risk associated with embedded derivatives and MRBs in certain insurance liabilities. In addition, equity derivatives are used to economically hedge certain investments. Foreign exchange derivatives (principally foreign exchange forwards and swaps) are used to economically mitigate risk associated with foreign denominated investments, net capital exposures and foreign currency transactions. We use credit derivatives to manage our credit exposures. The derivatives are effective economic hedges of the exposures that they are meant to offset. As part of our strategy to enhance investment income, in addition to hedging activities, we also enter into derivative contracts with respect to investment operations, which may include, among other things, credit default swaps (“CDS”), total return swaps and purchases of investments with embedded derivatives, such as equity-linked notes and convertible bonds.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 9. Derivatives and Hedge Accounting
Interest rate, currency and equity swaps, credit contracts, swaptions, options and forward transactions are accounted for as derivatives, recorded on a trade-date basis and carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are generally reflected in income, except in certain situations in which hedge accounting is applied and unrealized gains and losses are reflected in AOCI. Aggregate asset or liability positions are netted on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets only to the extent permitted by qualifying master netting arrangements in place with each respective counterparty. Cash collateral posted with counterparties in conjunction with transactions supported by qualifying master netting arrangements is reported as a reduction of the corresponding net derivative liability, while cash collateral received in conjunction with transactions supported by qualifying master netting arrangements is reported as a reduction of the corresponding net derivative asset.
Derivatives, with the exception of embedded derivatives, are reported at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in and . Embedded derivatives are generally presented with the host contract in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A bifurcated embedded derivative is measured at fair value and accounted for in the same manner as a freestanding derivative contract. The corresponding host contract is accounted for according to the accounting guidance applicable for that instrument.
For additional information on embedded derivatives and MRBs, see Notes 4, 13 and 14.

COLLATERAL
We engage in derivative transactions that are not subject to a clearing requirement directly with third parties, in most cases under International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements. Many of the ISDA Master Agreements also include Credit Support Annex (“CSA”) provisions, which provide for collateral postings that may vary based on criteria such as ratings and threshold levels. We attempt to reduce our risk with certain counterparties by entering into agreements that enable collateral to be obtained from a counterparty on an up-front or contingent basis. We minimize the risk that counterparties might be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations by monitoring counterparty credit exposure and collateral value and generally requiring additional collateral to be posted upon the occurrence of certain events or circumstances. Additionally, in the case reinsurance agreements involve derivative transactions, cash collateral is provided to us by reinsurers and can be posted to third parties under the respective ISDA and CSA provisions.
Collateral posted by us to third parties for derivative transactions was $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In the case of collateral posted under derivative transactions that are not subject to clearing, this collateral can generally be repledged or resold by the counterparties. Collateral provided to us from third parties for derivative transactions was $3.9 billion and $4.0 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In the case of collateral provided to us under derivative transactions that are not subject to clearing, we generally can repledge or resell collateral.
OFFSETTING
We have elected to present all derivative receivables and derivative payables, and the related cash collateral received and paid, on a net basis on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when a legally enforceable ISDA Master Agreement exists between us and our derivative counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is an agreement governing multiple derivative transactions between two counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement generally provides for the net settlement of all, or a specified group, of these derivative transactions, as well as transferred collateral, through a single payment, and in a single currency, as applicable. The net settlement provisions apply in the event of a default on, or affecting any, one derivative transaction or a termination event affecting all, or a specified group of, derivative transactions governed by the ISDA Master Agreement.
HEDGE ACCOUNTING
We designated certain derivatives entered into with third parties as fair value hedges of available-for-sale securities held by our insurance subsidiaries. The fair value hedges include foreign currency forwards and cross-currency swaps designated as hedges of the change in fair value of foreign currency denominated available-for-sale securities attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates. We also designated certain interest rate swaps entered into with third parties as fair value hedges of fixed rate GICs attributable to changes in benchmark interest rates. In December 2025, we also entered into certain interest rate swap contracts designated as fair value portfolio layer hedges of available-for-sale investment securities.

In 2022 we designated certain interest rate swaps entered into with related parties as cash flow hedges of forecasted coupon payments associated with anticipated long-term debt issuances and we recognized derivative gains in AOCI. In each of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, $7 million and $7 million has been reclassified into Interest expense. The remaining amount in AOCI, of $111 million, will be reclassified into Interest expense over the life of the hedging relationship, which can extend up to 30 years. We expect $28 million to be reclassified into Interest expense over the next 12 months. There are no amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness that are recognized in earnings.
For additional information related to the debt issuances, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.
We also designated certain interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of floating-rate investment assets. Related to such swaps, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized derivative gains (losses) of $(46 ) million in AOCI and zero in net investment income. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized derivative gains (losses) of $182 million in AOCI and $(14 ) million in net investment income. As it relates to such hedges, we do not expect any reclassifications into net investment income over the next 12 months and there are no amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness that are recognized in earnings.
We use cross-currency swaps as hedging instruments in net investment hedge relationships to mitigate the foreign exchange risk associated with our non-U.S. dollar functional currency foreign subsidiaries. For net investment hedge relationships that use derivatives as hedging instruments, we assess hedge effectiveness and measure hedge ineffectiveness using changes in forward rates. We recognized gains (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 of $2 million and $(4 ) million, respectively, included in Change in foreign currency translation adjustment in OCI related to the net investment hedge relationships. The gains (losses) recognized primarily include transactions with third parties. A qualitative methodology is utilized to assess hedge effectiveness for net investment hedges, while regression analysis is employed for all other hedges.

In addition to embedded derivatives within policyholder contract deposits, certain guaranteed benefits within insurance contracts are classified as MRBs. The change in the fair value of these benefits is disclosed in Note 14. The change in the fair value of MRBs and the derivative instruments that hedge those risks are recognized in “Change in the fair value of MRBs, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
Deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) represent those costs that are incremental and directly related to the successful acquisition of new or renewal of existing insurance contracts. We defer incremental costs that result directly from, and are essential to, the acquisition or renewal of an insurance contract. Such DAC generally include agent or broker commissions and bonuses, and medical fees that would not have been incurred if the insurance contract had not been acquired or renewed. Each cost is analyzed to assess whether it is fully deferrable. We partially defer costs, including certain commissions, when we do not believe that the entire cost is directly related to the acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. Commissions that are not deferred to DAC are recorded in Non-deferrable insurance commissions in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
We also defer a portion of employee total compensation and payroll-related fringe benefits directly related to time spent performing specific acquisition or renewal activities, including costs associated with the time spent on underwriting, policy issuance and processing, and sales force contract selling. The amounts deferred are derived based on successful efforts for each distribution channel and/or cost center from which the cost originates.
DAC for all contracts, except for those with limited to no exposure to policyholder behavior risk, (i.e., certain investment contracts), is grouped and amortized on a constant level basis (i.e., approximating straight line amortization with adjustments for expected terminations) over the expected term of the related contracts.

DEFERRED SALES INDUCEMENTS
We offer deferred sales inducements (“DSI”) which include enhanced crediting rates or bonus payments to contract holders (bonus interest) on certain annuity and investment contract products. To qualify for accounting treatment as an asset, the bonus interest must be explicitly identified in the contract at inception. We must also demonstrate that such amounts are incremental to amounts we credit on similar contracts without bonus interest and are higher than the contracts’ expected ongoing crediting rates for periods after the bonus period. DSI is reported in Other assets, while amortization related to DSI is recorded in Interest credited to policyholder account balances. DSI amounts are deferred and amortized on a constant level basis over the life of the contract consistent with DAC.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 11. Separate Account Assets and Liabilities
We report variable contracts within the separate accounts when investment income and investment gains and losses accrue directly to, and investment risk is borne by, the contract holder and the separate account meets additional accounting criteria to qualify for separate account treatment. The assets supporting the variable portion of variable annuity and variable universal life contracts that qualify for separate account treatment are carried at fair value and are reported as separate account assets, with an equivalent summary total reported as separate account liabilities. The assets of insulated accounts are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise from any of our other businesses.
Policy values for variable products and investment contracts are expressed in terms of investment units. Each unit is linked to an asset portfolio. The value of a unit increases or decreases based on the value of the linked asset portfolio. The current liability at any time is the sum of the current unit value of all investment units in the separate accounts, plus any liabilities for MRBs.
Amounts assessed against the policyholders for mortality, administrative and other services are included in policy fees. Investment performance (including investment income, net investment gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses)) and the corresponding amounts credited to policyholders of such separate accounts are offset within the same line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
For discussion of the fair value measurement of guaranteed benefits that are accounted for as MRBs, see Note 4.

Separate account liabilities primarily represent the contract holder's account balance in separate account assets and will be equal and offsetting to total separate account assets.
12. Future Policy Benefits
Future policy benefits primarily include reserves for traditional life and annuity payout contracts, which represent an estimate of the present value of future benefits less the present value of future net premiums. Included in Future policy benefits are liabilities for annuities issued in structured settlement arrangements whereby a claimant receives life contingent payments over their lifetime. Also included are pension risk transfer arrangements whereby an upfront premium is received in exchange for guaranteed retirement benefits. All payments under these arrangements are fixed and determinable with respect to their amounts and dates. Structured settlement or other annuitization elections (e.g., certain single premium immediate annuities) that do not involve life contingent payments, but rather payments for a stated period are included in Policyholder contract deposits.

The weighted average interest rates are calculated using projected future net liability cash flows that are aggregated to the segment level, and are represented as an annual rate.
Additional Liabilities: For universal-life type products, insurance benefits in excess of the account balance are generally recognized as expenses in the period incurred unless the design of the product is such that future charges are insufficient to cover the benefits, in which case an “additional liability” is accrued over the life of the contract. These additional liabilities are included in Future policy benefits for life and accident and health insurance contracts in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

POLICYHOLDER CONTRACT DEPOSITS
The liability for Policyholder contract deposits is primarily recorded at accumulated value (deposits received and net transfers from separate accounts, plus accrued interest credited, less withdrawals and assessed fees). Deposits collected on investment-oriented products are not reflected as revenues. They are recorded directly to Policyholder contract deposits upon receipt. Amounts assessed against the contract holders for mortality, administrative, and other services are included as Policy fees in revenues.
In addition to liabilities for universal life, fixed annuities, fixed options within variable annuities, annuities without life contingencies, funding agreements and GICs, policyholder contract deposits also include our liability for (i) index-linked interest credited features accounted for as embedded derivatives at fair value, (ii) annuities issued in a structured settlement arrangement with no life contingency and (iii) certain contracts we have elected to account for at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives related to policy index-linked interest credited features and the fair value of derivatives hedging these liabilities are recognized in realized gains and losses.
For additional information on index credits accounted for as embedded derivatives, see Note 4.

MRBs are defined as contracts or contract features that both provide protection to the policyholder and expose the insurance entity to other-than-nominal capital market risk. The MRB represents an amount that a policyholder receives in addition to the account balance upon the occurrence of a specific event or circumstance, such as death, annuitization, or periodic withdrawal that involves protection from other-than-nominal capital market risk. Certain contract features, such as GMWBs, GMDBs and guaranteed minimum income benefits (“GMIBs”) commonly found in variable annuities, fixed index annuities and fixed annuities, are MRBs. MRBs are assessed at contract inception using a non-option method involving attributed fees that results in an initial fair value of zero or an option method that results in a fair value greater than zero.
Changes in the fair value of Market Risk Benefits, net represents changes in the fair value of market risk benefit liabilities and assets (with the exception of our own credit risk changes), and includes attributed rider fees and benefits, net of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and fixed maturity securities that are used to economically hedge market risk from the variable annuity GMWB riders.

In the normal course of business, we enter into various contingent liabilities and commitments. Although we cannot currently quantify our ultimate liability for unresolved litigation and investigation matters, including those referred to below, it is possible that such liability could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows for an individual reporting period.
LEGAL CONTINGENCIES
Overview
In the normal course of business, we are subject to regulatory and government investigations and actions, and litigation and other forms of dispute resolution in a large number of proceedings pending in various domestic and foreign jurisdictions. Certain of these matters involve potentially significant risk of loss due to potential for significant jury awards and settlements, punitive damages or other penalties. Many of these matters are also highly complex and may seek recovery on behalf of a class or similarly large number of plaintiffs. It is therefore inherently difficult to predict the size or scope of potential future losses arising from these matters. In our insurance and reinsurance operations, litigation and arbitration concerning the scope of coverage under insurance and reinsurance contracts, and litigation and arbitration in which our subsidiaries defend or indemnify their insureds under insurance contracts, are generally considered in the establishment of our future policy benefits. Separate and apart from the foregoing matters involving insurance and reinsurance coverage, we and our respective officers and directors are subject to a variety of additional types of legal proceedings brought by holders of our securities, customers, employees and others, alleging, among other things, breach of contractual or fiduciary duties, bad faith, indemnification and violations of federal and state statutes and regulations. With respect to these other categories of matters not arising out of claims for insurance or reinsurance coverage, we establish reserves for loss contingencies when it is probable that a loss will be incurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many instances, we are unable to determine whether a loss is probable or to reasonably estimate the amount of such a loss and, therefore, the potential future losses arising from legal proceedings may exceed the amount of liabilities that we have recorded in our financial statements covering these matters. While such potential future charges could be material, based on information currently known to management, management does not believe, other than as may be discussed below, that any such charges are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Additionally, from time to time, various regulatory and governmental agencies review our transactions and practices in connection with industry-wide and other inquiries or examinations into, among other matters, the business practices of current and former operating subsidiaries. Such investigations, inquiries or examinations could develop into administrative, civil or criminal proceedings or enforcement actions, in which remedies could include fines, penalties, restitution or alterations in our business practices, and could result in additional expenses, limitations on certain business activities and reputational damage.

California Lapse Statute Litigation
Moriarty v. American General Life Insurance Co. (S.D. Cal.) was a putative class action involving Sections 10113.71 and 10113.72 of the California Insurance Code, instituted against AGL on July 18, 2017 in state court. AGL removed the matter to federal court on August 23, 2017. In general, those statutes require that for life-insurance policies issued and delivered in California: (1) the policy must contain a 60-day grace period following non-payment of premium during which the policy remains in force; (2) the insurer must provide a 30-day pre-lapse notice; and (3) the insurer must notify policy owners of the right to designate a secondary recipient for lapse notices. The plaintiff contended that AGL did not comply with these requirements for a policy issued before these statutes went into effect. The plaintiff sought damages and other relief. AGL asserted various defenses to the plaintiff’s claims and to class certification. In 2022, the District Court held that a trial was necessary to determine whether AGL was liable on the plaintiff’s breach of contract claim. Also in 2022, the District Court denied class certification and granted partial summary judgment for AGL on the plaintiff’s claim for breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The case was reassigned to a new judge in 2023, who remanded the plaintiff’s claim for injunctive relief under California’s Unfair Competition Law (UCL) back to state court, where it has been stayed ever since. The judge also granted the plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment on the plaintiff’s breach of contract claim. AGL appealed the 2023 summary judgment decision to the Ninth Circuit.
The Ninth Circuit held that any policyholder or beneficiary suing based on alleged breaches of Sections 10113.71 and 10113.72 must prove that the breaches actually caused them harm, for instance by resulting in missed payments or the lapse of the policy. Thus, on March 4, 2025, the Ninth Circuit vacated the District Court’s 2023 summary judgment order and remanded for further proceedings. The panel also denied the plaintiff’s request to certify a question to the California Supreme Court. After the U.S. Supreme Court denied review, the case returned to the District Court.
The District Court entered an order on September 3, 2025, remanding the plaintiff’s claim for restitution under the UCL to state court. As a result, the plaintiff’s UCL claim was fully in state court and still subject to a stay pending resolution of the federal case. The plaintiff subsequently moved to lift the stay in state court, but the state court denied that motion on December 12, 2025. The plaintiff also moved to give notice to former putative class members of the denial of class certification; that motion was denied by the District Court on December 18, 2025.
On January 12, 2026, a jury trial was held in the District Court on the plaintiff’s individual breach of contract claim. The jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff on January 13, 2026, and the District Court was expected to enter a final judgment awarding the plaintiff the benefits of the policy (approximately $1 million), plus interest. The parties subsequently reached a settlement to resolve both the District Court and state court matters with finality. Upon the entry of dismissals with prejudice on the District Court and state court dockets, we will cease reporting these matters.
AGL is also defending other actions in California involving similar issues. Gevorgyan v. American General Life Insurance Co. (C.D. Cal.) was filed in state court on January 17, 2025, and removed to federal court on March 27, 2025. The case involves living insureds with two $250,000 policies. On March 26, 2026, the Court largely denied AGL’s motion for summary judgment and found a triable issue of fact on the plaintiffs’ claims for negligence, unjust enrichment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and punitive damages. A jury trial is set for June 29, 2026. Delgado v. American General Life Insurance Co. (C.D. Cal.) was filed in federal court on March 7, 2025. Rocklage v. American General Life Insurance Co. (N.D. Cal.) was filed in state court on April 21, 2025, and removed to federal court on May 30, 2025. Eisenberg v. American General Life Insurance Co. (C.D. Cal.) was filed in state court on September 2, 2025, and removed to federal court on November 14, 2025. People of the State of California v. American General Life Insurance Co., et al. (Cal. Superior Court, San Diego County) was filed on October 17, 2024, against AGL, Lincoln Benefit Life Co., Everlake Life Insurance Co., and Transamerica Life Insurance Co., seeking civil penalties and equitable relief under California Business & Professions Code §§ 17200 et seq. in connection with all California policies issued before 2013 that lapsed for nonpayment of premiums since January 1, 2013. On January 27, 2025, AGL filed a demurrer to the complaint. That demurrer was heard on July 10, 2025. The trial court sustained AGL’s demurrer as to misjoinder on August 25, 2025, but granted leave to amend. The plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint on September 11, 2025, and AGL filed an answer to that pleading on October 14, 2025. Discovery has since commenced. A trial date is currently set for March 5, 2027.
These cases are in the early stages, and AGL expects their progress will be influenced by future developments in other cases involving the same insurance statutes. AGL has accrued its current estimate of probable loss with respect to these litigation matters.
OTHER COMMITMENTS
In the normal course of business, we enter into commitments to invest in limited partnerships, private equity funds and hedge funds and to purchase and develop real estate in the United States and abroad. These commitments totaled $4.4 billion at March 31, 2026.

ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 15. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees
GUARANTEES
Asset Dispositions
We are subject to guarantees and indemnity arrangements in connection with the completed sales of businesses. The various arrangements may be triggered by, among other things, declines in asset values; the occurrence of specified business contingencies; the realization of contingent liabilities; developments in litigation; or breaches of representations, warranties or covenants provided by us. These arrangements are typically subject to various time limitations, defined by the contract or by operation of law, such as statutes of limitations. In some cases, the maximum potential obligation is subject to contractual limitations, while in other cases such limitations are not specified or are not applicable.
We are unable to develop a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential payout under certain of these arrangements. Overall, we believe that it is unlikely we will have to make any material payments related to completed sales under these arrangements, and no material liabilities related to these arrangements have been recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Guarantees provided by AIG
Prior to the IPO, American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”) provided certain guarantees to us as described below. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement we will indemnify, defend and hold harmless AIG against or from any liability arising from or related to these guarantees.
Certain of our insurance subsidiaries benefit from General Guarantee Agreements under which American Home Assurance Company (“AHAC”) or National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA (“NUFIC”) has unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed all present and future obligations arising from certain insurance policies issued by these subsidiaries (a “Guaranteed Policy” or the “Guaranteed Policies”). AHAC and NUFIC are required to perform under the agreements if one of the insurance subsidiaries fails to make payments due under a Guaranteed Policy. These General Guarantee Agreements have all been terminated as to insurance policies issued after the date of termination. AHAC and NUFIC have not been required to perform under any of the agreements but remain contingently liable for all policyholder obligations associated with the Guaranteed Policies. We did not pay any fees under these agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.
AIG provides a full and unconditional guarantee of all outstanding notes and junior subordinated debentures of CRBGLH. This includes:
•a guarantee (the “CRBGLH External Debt Guarantee”) in connection with CRBGLH junior subordinated debentures and certain CRBGLH notes (the “CRBGLH External Debt”).
In addition to the Separation Agreement, we entered into a guarantee reimbursement agreement with AIG which provides that we will reimburse AIG for the full amount of any payment made by or on behalf of AIG pursuant to the CRBGLH External Debt Guarantee. We have also entered into a collateral agreement with AIG which provides that in the event of: (i) a ratings downgrade of Corebridge Parent or CRBGLH long-term unsecured indebtedness below specified levels or (ii) the failure by CRBGLH to pay principal and interest on the External Debt when due, we must collateralize an amount equal to the sum of: (a) 100 % of the principal amount outstanding, (b) accrued and unpaid interest and (c) 100 % of the net present value of scheduled interest payments through the maturity dates of the CRBGLH External Debt.

PREFERRED STOCK
Issuance of Corebridge Preferred Stock
On November 18, 2025, Corebridge Parent issued 500,000 shares of its 6.875 % Fixed Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), $1.00 par value per share, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, for aggregate net cash proceeds of $493 million ($500 million gross). The preferred stock ranks senior to Corebridge common stock with respect to the payment of dividends and liquidation. Corebridge will pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock on a noncumulative basis only when, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors (or a duly authorized committee of the Board) and will be payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on June 1, 2026. Dividends will accrue on a noncumulative basis at a fixed rate per annum of 6.875 % and from, and including, December 1, 2030, during each reset period at a rate per annum equal to the five-year treasury rate plus 3.181 %. In connection with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock we incurred $7 million of issuance costs, which has been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. The Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable at Corebridge’s option, in whole or in part, on any dividend payment date on or after December 1, 2030, at a redemption price of $1,000 per share plus declared and unpaid dividends.
Preferred Stock Dividends Declared
On May 5, 2026, the Company declared a cash dividend on Corebridge Parent Series A Preferred Stock of $36.86 per share, payable on June 1, 2026 to holders of record at close of business on May 15, 2026.

Repurchase of Corebridge Common Stock
Shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, through private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions or otherwise. Certain of our share repurchases have been and may from time to time be effected through the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plans. On May 4, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, which has subsequently been expanded. Most recently, on June 23, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized an additional $2.0 billion increase in the share repurchase amount under the share repurchase program. Under this program, Corebridge Parent may, from time to time, purchase shares of Corebridge Parent common stock but is not obligated to purchase any particular number of shares. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Board of Directors at any time.

NON-REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
The activity in non-redeemable noncontrolling interest primarily relates to activities with consolidated investment entities.
The changes in non-redeemable noncontrolling interest due to divestitures and acquisitions primarily relate to the formation and funding of new consolidated investment entities. The majority of the funding for these consolidated investment entities comes from affiliated companies of Corebridge.
The changes in non-redeemable noncontrolling interest due to contributions from noncontrolling interests primarily relate to the additional capital calls related to consolidated investment entities.

RECENT TAX LAW CHANGES
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (H.R. 5376) (the “Inflation Reduction Act”) includes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) on adjusted financial statement income for corporations with average profits over $1 billion over a three-year period and a 1% stock buyback tax. The U.S. Treasury and Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) have published proposed regulations, as well as interim guidance, with respect to the CAMT which we rely upon to calculate our estimated CAMT liability. Our estimated CAMT liability may be refined as additional guidance is issued.
Corebridge | First Quarter 2026 Form 10-Q 64
TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 18. Income Taxes
RECLASSIFICATION OF CERTAIN TAX EFFECTS FROM AOCI
We use an item-by-item approach to release the stranded or disproportionate income tax effects in AOCI related to our available-for-sale securities. Under this approach, a portion of the disproportionate tax effects is assigned to each individual security when recognized in AOCI. When the individual securities are sold, mature or are otherwise impaired on an other-than-temporary basis, the assigned portion of the disproportionate tax effect is reclassified from AOCI to income (loss) from operations.
INTERIM TAX CALCULATION METHOD
We use the estimated annual effective tax rate method in computing our interim tax provision. Certain items, including those deemed to be unusual or infrequent or that cannot be reliably estimated, are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. In these cases, the actual tax expense or benefit is reported in the same period as the related item. Certain tax effects are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate, including the reclassification of certain tax effects from AOCI and changes in the realizability of deferred tax assets, and are recorded in the period in which they occur.
INTERIM TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the effective tax rate on income from operations was 162.9 %. The effective tax rate on income from operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 21 % primarily due to tax charges associated with increase in U.S. federal valuation allowance and state and local income taxes, partially offset by tax benefits associated with dividends received deduction, non-controlling interest, reclassifications from AOCI to income from operations related to the disposal of available-for-sale securities, and tax adjustments related to prior year returns including interest.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the effective tax rate on loss from operations was 23.8 %. The effective tax rate on loss from operations differs from the statutory tax rate of 21 % primarily due to tax benefits associated with dividends received deduction, non-controlling interest, reclassifications from AOCI to income from operations related to the disposal of available-for-sale securities, tax adjustments related to prior year returns including interest, and excess tax benefits related to share based compensation payments recorded through the income statement. These tax benefits were partially offset by tax charges associated with increase in U.S. federal valuation allowance and state and local income taxes.
ASSESSMENT OF DEFERRED TAX ASSET VALUATION ALLOWANCE
In evaluating the recoverability of our deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance, we consider recent events, changes in interest rates, significant market volatility, forecasts of future income for each of our businesses, and any potential impact of these factors on our tax planning strategies. Our assessment of the realization of deferred tax assets, including net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards, is performed for each separate U.S. federal tax filing group and separate U.S. tax filer. This assessment considers, among other factors, the five-year waiting period during which certain life insurance subsidiaries are not permitted to join in the filing of the U.S. consolidated federal income tax return. We also consider the impact of Sec. 382 limitations on pre-ownership change net operating losses and other built-in losses and deductions. After evaluating all positive and negative evidence, if we determine that it is more-likely-than-not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded.
Based on management’s analysis, as of March 31, 2026, we have a U.S. federal valuation allowance of $1.6 billion, of which $171 million is related to NOLs and other ordinary DTAs and $1.4 billion ($1.1 billion reflected in AOCI) is related to realized and unrealized capital losses. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded an increase in valuation allowance of $11 million related to NOLs and other ordinary DTAs and net increase of $227 million related to investment losses, of which $140 million was recorded through the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and $87 million was recorded in OCI.
TAX EXAMINATIONS AND LITIGATION
Corebridge Parent and certain U.S. subsidiaries are included in a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return with AIG through the date of IPO (short-period tax year 2022), and income tax expense is recorded, based on applicable U.S. and foreign laws.
The AIG Consolidated Tax Group is currently under IRS examination for the tax years 2011 through 2019 and is continuing to engage in the appeals process for years 2007 through 2010.
We are periodically advised of certain IRS and other adjustments identified in AIG's consolidated tax return which are attributable to our operations. Under our tax sharing arrangement, we provide a charge or credit for the effect of the adjustments and the related interest in the period we are advised of such adjustments and interest.

ITEM 1 | Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) | 19. Related Parties
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
We may enter into a significant number of transactions with related parties in the normal course of business. Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability to control or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial or operating decisions, or if a party, directly or indirectly through one or more of its intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with an entity. Our material transactions with related parties are described below.
Related Party Transactions with AIG
On February 12, 2026, we purchased an aggregate of approximately $750 million of shares from AIG in a privately negotiated transaction. Following the decrease in AIG’s ownership interest in the Company from approximately 10 % to approximately 6 % on February 12, 2026, AIG is no longer considered a related party of the Company. Transactions with AIG continue to be reported as related party transactions for periods prior to the February 12, 2026. From January 1, 2026 through February 11, 2026 there were no material transactions with AIG.
Related Party Transactions with Blackstone Inc. (“Blackstone”)
On December 30, 2025, funds managed by affiliates of Blackstone acquired AIG’s interests in certain real estate funds and other investments which are managed by the Company. We also receive management and advisory fee income for Investment Services related to these ventures.
We also have a long-term asset management relationship with Blackstone to manage a portion of our investment portfolio. The investment expense incurred were $85 million and $76 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Related Party Transactions with Variable Interest Entities
In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various arrangements with VIEs, and we consolidate the VIE if we are determined to be the primary beneficiary. In certain situations, we may have a variable interest in a VIE that is consolidated by related parties, and in other instances, related parties may have variable interests in a VIE that is consolidated by us. The total debt of consolidated VIEs held by related parties was $24 million and $24 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The noncontrolling interest included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the VIEs held by related parties was $195 million and $334 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The gain/(loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest of consolidated VIEs held by related parties were $6 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
In addition to transactions with VIEs, Corebridge has entered into other structured financing arrangements supporting real estate properties and other types of assets with other related parties. These financing arrangements are reported in Other invested assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of these and the VIE structures above also include commitments for funding from related parties of $0.5 billion and $0.6 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
For additional information related to VIEs and other investments, see Notes 5 and 8.

ITEM 2 | Executive Summary
OVERVIEW
We are one of the largest providers of retirement solutions and insurance products in the United States, committed to helping individuals plan, save for and achieve secure financial futures. We offer a broad set of products and services through our market leading Individual Retirement, Group Retirement, Life Insurance and Institutional Markets businesses, each of which features capabilities and industry experience we believe are difficult to replicate. These four businesses collectively seek to enhance stockholder returns while maintaining our attractive risk profile, which has historically resulted in consistent and strong cash flow generation.
Corebridge Financial and Equitable Holdings Merger
On March 26, 2026, we and Equitable Holdings, Inc. (“Equitable”) announced the entering into of a definitive agreement to combine in an all-stock merger.
Under the terms of the merger agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, we and Equitable will form a new parent company and each outstanding share of our common stock will be exchanged for the right to receive 1.0000 shares of the new parent company’s common stock, and each outstanding share of Equitable common stock will be exchanged for the right to receive 1.55516 shares of the new parent company’s common stock.
Following the closing of the transaction, Corebridge shareholders will own approximately 51% of the combined company and Equitable shareholders will own approximately 49% of the combined company.
The transaction is expected to close by year-end 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval of shareholders of both companies.
REVENUES
Our revenues come from five principal sources:
•Premiums are principally derived from our traditional life insurance and certain annuity products including PRT transactions and structured settlements with life contingencies. Our premium income is driven by growth in new policies and contracts written and persistency of our in-force policies, both of which are influenced by a combination of factors including our efforts to attract and retain customers and market conditions that influence demand for our products;
•Policy fees are principally derived from our universal life insurance, group retirement, individual retirement, Corporate Markets and SVW products. Our policy fees typically vary directly with the underlying assets under administration, account value or benefit base of our annuities. Account value and benefit base are influenced by changes in economic conditions, including changes in levels of equity prices, and changes in levels of interest rates and credit spreads, as well as net flows;
•Net investment income from our investment portfolio varies as a result of the yield, allocation and size of our investment portfolio, which are, in turn, a function of capital market conditions and net flows into our total investments, as well as the expenses associated with managing our investment portfolio;
•Net realized gains (losses), net include changes in the Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative, risk management related derivative activities (excluding hedges of certain MRBs), changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives in certain of our insurance products and trading activity within our investment portfolio, including trading activity related to the Fortitude Re modco arrangement. Net realized gains (losses) vary due to the timing of sales of investments as well as changes in the fair value of embedded derivatives in certain of our insurance products and derivatives utilized to hedge certain embedded derivatives; and
•Advisory fee income and other income includes fees from registered investment advisory services, 12b-1 fees (marketing and distribution fees paid by mutual funds), other asset management fee income and commission-based broker-dealer services.
BENEFITS AND EXPENSES
Our benefits and expenses come from six principal sources:
•Policyholder benefits are driven primarily by customer withdrawals and surrenders from traditional products which change in response to changes in capital market conditions and changes in policy reserves, as well as life contingent benefit payments on life and annuity contracts and updates to assumptions related to future policyholder behavior, mortality and longevity;

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 | Executive Summary
•Interest credited to policyholder account balances varies in relation to the amount of the underlying account value or benefit base and also includes changes in the fair value of certain embedded derivatives related to our insurance products and amortization of deferred sales inducement assets;
•Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) and value of business acquired (“VOBA”) for all applicable contracts is amortized, on a constant level basis over the expected term of the related contracts, using assumptions consistent with those used in estimating the related liability for future policy benefits, or any other related balances, for those corresponding contracts, as applicable. VOBA is determined at the time of acquisition and is reported with DAC. This value is based on the present value of future pre-tax profits discounted at yields applicable at the time of purchase;
•General operating expenses include expenses associated with conducting our business, including salaries, other employee-related compensation and other operating expenses such as professional services or travel;
•Change in the fair value of market risk benefits, net represents the changes in fair value of MRBs contained within certain insurance contracts (excluding the impact of changes in our own credit risk), including attributed fees, along with the changes in the fair value of derivatives that economically hedge MRBs. Changes in our own credit risk are included in OCI; and
•Interest expense represents the charges associated with our external debt obligations, including debt of consolidated investment entities. This expense varies based on the amount of debt on our balance sheet, as well as the rates of interest associated with those obligations. Interest expense related to consolidated investment entities principally relates to variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are the primary beneficiary; however, creditors or beneficial interest holders of VIEs generally only have recourse to the assets and cash flows of the VIEs and do not have recourse to us except in limited circumstances when we have provided a guarantee to the VIE’s interest holders.
SIGNIFICANT FACTORS IMPACTING OUR RESULTS
The following significant factors have impacted, and may in the future impact, our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
Impact of Variable Annuity Reinsurance Transaction
On August 1, 2025 and January 2, 2026, respectively, AGL and USL entered into a coinsurance and modco reinsurance agreement with CSLR to reinsure 100% of their individual variable annuity contracts. Under these agreements, AGL and USL transferred to the reinsurer $2.1 billion of assets primarily consisting of fixed maturity securities supporting the general account liabilities net of a ceding commission. Additionally, $48.7 billion of separate account liabilities were ceded under the modco portion of the agreement. In addition, the closing of the sale to Venerable of all outstanding membership interests of SAAMCo held by AGL occurred on January 1, 2026.
Impact of Fortitude Re
In February 2018, AGL, VALIC and USL entered into modco agreements with Fortitude Re, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fortitude Group Holdings, LLC (“Fortitude Holdings”), a registered Class 4 and Class E reinsurer in Bermuda.
In the modco arrangement, the investments supporting the reinsurance agreements are withheld by, and therefore continue to reside on the balance sheet of, the ceding company (i.e., AGL and USL) thereby creating an obligation for the ceding company to pay the reinsurer (i.e., Fortitude Re) at a later date. We have established a funds withheld payable to Fortitude Re while simultaneously establishing a reinsurance asset representing liabilities for the insurance coverage that Fortitude Re has assumed. The funds withheld payable contains an embedded derivative and changes in fair value of this derivative are recognized in Net realized gains (losses) on Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative.
Our net income experiences ongoing volatility as a result of the reinsurance agreements and gives rise to a funds withheld payable that contains an embedded derivative. However, this net income volatility is almost entirely offset with a corresponding change in OCI, which reflects the fair value change from the investment portfolio supporting the funds withheld payable, which is primarily available-for-sale securities, resulting in minimal impact to our comprehensive income (loss) and equity attributable to Corebridge. The Company has also elected the fair value option on the acquisition of certain new fixed maturity securities, helping reduce the mismatch over time. VALIC’s modco agreement with Fortitude Re was recaptured effective January 1, 2025, resulting in a $45 million charge to pre-tax earnings. As of March 31, 2026, $23.7 billion of reserves had been ceded to Fortitude Re.
For additional information on our reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re, see Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Embedded Derivatives for Fixed Index Annuity, Registered Index-Linked Annuity and Index Universal Life Products
Fixed index annuity and registered index-linked annuity contracts contain index interest credits which are accounted for as embedded derivatives and our index universal life insurance products also contain embedded derivatives. In contrast to fixed index annuity contracts, registered index-linked annuity contract owners also accept limited exposure to negative index interest credits in return for higher potential positive index credits. Policyholders may elect to rebalance among the various crediting strategies within the product at specified renewal dates. At the end of each index term, we generally have the opportunity to re-price the index component by establishing different participation rates or caps on index credited rates. The index-linked interest credited features of these products results in the recognition of an embedded derivative that is required to be bifurcated from the host contract and carried at fair value with changes in the fair value of the liabilities recorded in Net realized gains (losses). Option pricing models are used to estimate fair value, taking into account assumptions for future index growth rates, volatility of the index, future interest rates and our ability to adjust the participation rates and caps on index-linked interest credited features.
The following table summarizes the fair values of the embedded derivatives for fixed index annuity, registered index-linked annuity and index universal life products:

Our Investment Management Agreements with BlackRock
Since April 2022, we entered into investment management agreements with BlackRock and its investment advisory affiliates. As of March 31, 2026, BlackRock managed approximately $91.2 billion in book value of assets in our investment portfolio, consisting of liquid fixed income and certain private placement assets.

ITEM 2 | Executive Summary
COREBRIDGE’S MACROECONOMIC, INDUSTRY AND REGULATORY TRENDS
Our business is affected by industry and economic factors such as changes in interest rates and credit spreads; geopolitical tensions; credit and equity market conditions; currency exchange rates; regulation; tax policy; competition; trade disputes with other countries, including the effect of sanctions and trade restrictions, such as tariffs and trade barriers imposed by the U.S. government and any countermeasures by other governments in response to such tariffs; and general economic, market and political conditions. We continued to operate under market conditions in 2026 and 2025 characterized by factors such as higher interest rates, inflationary pressures, an uneven global economic recovery and global trade tensions. Responses by central banks and monetary authorities with respect to inflation, growth concerns and other macroeconomic factors have also affected global exchange rates and volatility.
Below is a discussion of certain industry and economic factors impacting our business:
Equity Markets
Our financial results are impacted by the performance of equity markets, which impacts the performance of our alternative investment portfolio, fee income, MRBs and embedded derivatives. For instance, in our Group Retirement variable annuity separate accounts, mutual fund assets and brokerage and advisory assets, we generally earn fee income based on the account value, which fluctuates with the equity markets as a significant amount of these assets are invested in equity funds. The impact of equity market returns, both increases and decreases, is reflected in our results due to the impact on the account value and the fair values of equity-exposed securities in our investment portfolio.
Our hedging costs could also be significantly impacted by changes in the level of equity markets as rebalancing and option costs are tied to the equity market volatility.
For additional information see “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Market Conditions—We are exposed to risk from equity market declines or volatility.” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Market and other economic factors may result in increased credit impairments, downgrades and losses across single or numerous asset classes due to lower collateral values or deteriorating cash flow and profitability by borrowers could lead to higher defaults on our investment portfolio, especially in geographic, industry or investment sectors where we have higher concentrations of exposure, such as real estate related borrowings. These factors can also cause widening of credit spreads which could reduce investment asset valuations, decrease fee income and increase statutory capital requirements, as well as reduce the availability of investments that are attractive from a risk-adjusted perspective.
For additional information see “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Market Conditions—Our business is highly dependent on economic and capital market conditions.” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Alternative investments include private equity funds which are generally reported on a one-quarter lag. Accordingly, changes in valuations driven by equity market conditions during the first quarter of 2026 may impact the private equity investments in the alternative investments portfolio in the second quarter of 2026.
Impact of Changes in the Interest Rate Environment
A rising interest rate environment benefits our spread income as we reinvest cash flows from existing business at higher rates and should have a positive impact on sales of spread-based products.
As of March 31, 2026, new investments continue to have higher yields than the yield on maturities and redemptions that we are experiencing in our existing portfolios. We actively manage our exposure to the interest rate environment through portfolio construction and asset-liability management, including spread management strategies for our investment-oriented products and economic hedging of interest rate risk from guarantee features in our variable annuities, but we may not be able to fully mitigate our interest rate risk by matching exposure of our assets relative to our liabilities.
Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes to certain statutory reserve or capital requirements that are based on formulas or models that consider interest rates or prescribed interest rates, such as asset adequacy testing. Rising interest rates can have a mixed impact on statutory financials due to higher surrender activity, particularly for fixed annuities, offset by potentially lower reserves for other products under various statutory reserving frameworks.
Corebridge | First Quarter 2026 Form 10-Q 72
TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 | Executive Summary
Annuity Sales and Surrenders
Rising interest rates could create the potential for increased sales but could also drive higher surrenders relative to what we have historically experienced. Fixed annuities have surrender charge periods, generally in the three-to-seven-year range. Fixed index annuities have surrender charge periods, generally in the five-to-ten-year range, and within our Group Retirement segment, certain of our fixed investment options are subject to other withdrawal restrictions, which may help mitigate increased early surrenders in a rising rate environment. In addition, older contracts that have higher minimum interest rates and continue to be attractive to contract holders have driven better than expected persistency in fixed annuities, although the liabilities for such contracts have continued to decrease over time in amount and as a percentage of the total annuity portfolio. We closely monitor surrenders of fixed annuities as contracts with lower minimum interest rates come out of the surrender charge period.
Reinvestment and Spread Management
We actively monitor fixed income markets, including the level of interest rates, credit spreads and the shape of the yield curve. We also frequently review our interest rate assumptions and actively manage the crediting rates used for new and in-force business. Business strategies continue to evolve and we attempt to maintain profitability of the overall business in light of the interest rate environment. A rising interest rate environment results in improved yields on new investments and improves margins for our business while also making certain products, such as fixed annuities, more attractive to potential customers. However, the rising rate environment has resulted in lower values on general and separate account assets, mutual fund assets and brokerage and advisory assets that hold investments in fixed income assets.
For investment-oriented products, including universal life insurance, and variable, fixed, fixed index and registered index-linked annuities in each of our operating and reportable segments, our spread management strategies include disciplined pricing and product design for new business, modifying or limiting the sale of products that do not achieve targeted spreads, using asset-liability management to match assets to liabilities to the extent practicable and actively managing crediting rates to help mitigate some of the pressure on investment spreads. Renewal crediting rate management is guided by specific contract provisions designed to allow crediting rates to be reset at pre-established intervals and subject to minimum crediting rate guarantees. We expect to continue to adjust crediting rates on in-force business, as appropriate, to be responsive to changing rate environments. As interest rates rise, we may need to raise crediting rates on in-force business for competitive and other reasons, potentially offsetting a portion of the additional investment income resulting from investing in a higher interest rate environment.
Of the aggregate fixed account values of our Individual Retirement and Group Retirement annuity products, 39% and 40% were crediting at the contractual minimum guaranteed interest rate at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. In the universal life insurance products in our Life Insurance business, 58% and 59% of the account values were crediting at the contractual minimum guaranteed interest rate at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These businesses continue to focus on pricing discipline and strategies to manage the minimum guaranteed interest crediting rates offered on new sales in the context of regulatory requirements and competitive positioning.
For additional information on our investment and asset-liability management strategies, see “Investments” below.
Regulatory Environment
The insurance and financial services industries are generally subject to close regulatory scrutiny and supervision. Our operations are subject to regulation by a number of different types of domestic and international regulatory authorities, including securities, derivatives and investment advisory regulators. Our insurance subsidiaries are subject to regulation and supervision by the states and jurisdictions in which they do business.
We expect that the domestic and international regulations applicable to us and our regulated entities will continue to evolve for the foreseeable future.
For example, the Risk-Based Capital (“RBC”) framework and RBC charges and treatment applicable to our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries have been a subject of focus for regulators in recent years. In February 2025, the NAIC announced the creation of a new Risk-Based Capital Model Governance (EX) Task Force (“Task Force”) as part of its efforts to update and strengthen the governance framework around RBC requirements. The Task Force adopted governing principles in December 2025 and soon after began a comprehensive gap analysis and consistency assessment of the existing RBC framework to identify potential issues. The work of the Task Force is ongoing and could result in changes to RBC requirements and calculations in the future, which could affect our capital planning, investment strategies, reporting obligations and permitted disclosures. Relatedly, the inaugural meeting of the Invested Assets (E) Task Force took place in March 2026. It was established for the purpose of better understanding investment products with characteristics that pose unique risks to insurers and developing investment-related solvency policy changes. The task force’s work results in changes to accounting policies and RBC requirements. We are actively monitoring developments associated with these RBC-related NAIC initiatives and their potential impacts on our life insurance subsidiaries.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 | Executive Summary
As another example, during 2025, the Life Actuarial Task Force adopted updates to actuarial guidelines intended to enhance asset adequacy analysis for asset-intensive, life insurance and annuity reinsurance treaties above certain thresholds. The updated guidelines, referred to as Actuarial Guideline LV (“AG 55”), are designed as a testing and disclosure regime, and the first AG 55 reports were due in April 2026. The NAIC plans to review the disclosures to identify any concerns with insurers’ approaches to asset adequacy testing, with the possibility of making additional changes that could lead to higher reserves for certain reinsurance agreements. We are actively monitoring developments associated with this NAIC initiative, which may be applicable to certain transactions that involve our life insurance subsidiaries acting as cedants.
Further, in March 2026, the Life Actuarial (A) Task Force exposed proposed revisions to VM-22 relating to the reinvestment guardrail for pension risk transfer products, aimed at further refining reserve requirements. A key function of the proposal is to allow an additional 50 basis points of illiquidity spread in reinvestment assumptions. Changes to reserve requirements could impact pricing, reserving and reinsurance strategy for our pension risk transfer business, and we are actively monitoring developments associated with this initiative.
In addition to regulatory developments at the NAIC, we are also subject to accounting practices and standards prescribed and/or permitted by our domiciliary insurance regulators. In December 2025, the NAIC approved agenda item 2024-06: Risk Transfer Analysis of Combination Reinsurance Contracts in respect of SSAP No. 61 and Appendix A-791 (the “Adoption”), clarifying the treatment of combination treaties with interdependent features under statutory accounting for new and newly amended contracts effective immediately and for in-force contracts effective for the year ending December 31, 2026. In response, we received a statutory permitted accounting practice from the Texas Department of Insurance related to an existing reinsurance treaty that fell within the scope of the Adoption. The permitted accounting practice is effective December 31, 2026.

ITEM 2 | Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Throughout this MD&A, we present our financial condition and results of operations in the way we believe will be most meaningful and representative of our business results. Some of the measurements we use are “non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC rules and regulations. We believe presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures allows for a deeper understanding of the profitability drivers of our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. These measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures for future periods are not provided as we do not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments for such reconciliations.
Adjusted revenues exclude Net realized gains (losses) except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments, revenues from businesses exited through reinsurance, and income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes).

*Represents all Net realized gains and losses except gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments and earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedging or for asset replication. Earned income for non-qualifying (economic) hedging or for asset replication is reclassified from Net realized gains and losses to specific APTOI line items (e.g., net investment income and interest credited to policyholder account balances) based on the economic risk being hedged.
Adjusted pre-tax operating income (“APTOI”) is derived by excluding the items set forth below from income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit). These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and recording adjustments to APTOI that we believe to be common in our industry. We believe the adjustments to pre-tax income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations.
APTOI excludes the impact of the following items:
FORTITUDE RE RELATED ADJUSTMENTS:
The modified coinsurance (“modco”) reinsurance agreements with Fortitude Re transfer the economics of the invested assets supporting the reinsurance agreements to Fortitude Re. Accordingly, the net investment income on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and the net realized gains (losses) on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets are excluded from APTOI. Similarly, changes in the Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative are also excluded from APTOI.
The ongoing results associated with the reinsurance agreement with Fortitude Re have been excluded from APTOI as these are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 | Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics
INVESTMENT RELATED ADJUSTMENTS:
APTOI excludes “Net realized gains (losses)”, except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments. Net realized gains (losses), except for gains (losses) related to the disposition of real estate investments, are excluded as the timing of sales on invested assets or changes in allowances depend largely on market credit cycles and can vary considerably across periods. In addition, changes in interest rates may create opportunistic scenarios to buy or sell invested assets. Our derivative results, including those used to economically hedge insurance liabilities, or those recognized as embedded derivatives at fair value, are also included in Net realized gains (losses) and are similarly excluded from APTOI except earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedges or for asset replication. Earned income on such economic hedges is reclassified from Net realized gains and losses to specific APTOI line items based on the economic risk being hedged (e.g., Net investment income and Interest credited to policyholder account balances).
MARKET RISK BENEFIT ADJUSTMENTS:
Certain of our variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity contracts contain GMWBs and/or GMDBs which are accounted for as MRBs. Changes in the fair value of these MRBs (excluding changes related to our own credit risk), including certain rider fees attributed to the MRBs are excluded from APTOI. MRBs related to the variable annuity business subject to the reinsurance agreements with CSLR are reported in the “Businesses exited through reinsurance” line item.
BUSINESSES EXITED THROUGH REINSURANCE:
Represents the results of businesses that have been or will be economically exited through reinsurance. This includes MRBs, along with changes in the fair value of derivatives used to hedge MRBs which are recorded through “Change in the fair value of MRBs, net.” The results of operations from these businesses have been excluded from APTOI as they are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.
OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:
Other adjustments represent all other adjustments that are excluded from APTOI and includes the net pre-tax operating income (losses) from noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment entities. The excluded adjustments include, as applicable:
•restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization;
•non-recurring costs associated with the implementation of non-ordinary course legal or regulatory changes or changes to accounting principles;
•separation costs;
•non-operating litigation reserves and settlements;
•loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, if any;
•losses from the impairment of goodwill, if any; and
•income and loss from divested or run-off business, if any.
Adjusted After-tax Operating Income Available to Corebridge Common Shareholders (“Adjusted After-tax Operating Income” or “AATOI”) is derived by excluding the tax effected APTOI adjustments described above and preferred stock dividends, as well as the following tax items from net income attributable to us:
•reclassifications of disproportionate tax effects from AOCI, changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax items related to legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; and
•deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges.

ITEM 2 | Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics
Adjusted Book Value Available to Corebridge Common Shareholders is derived by excluding preferred stock as well as AOCI, adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re’s funds withheld assets. We believe this measure is useful to investors as it eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available-for-sale securities portfolio for which there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities that are not recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded through OCI. It also eliminates asymmetrical impacts where our own credit non-performance risk is recorded through OCI. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re’s funds withheld assets since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re.

Premiums and deposits is a non-GAAP financial measure that includes direct and assumed premiums received and earned on traditional life insurance policies and life-contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life insurance, investment-type annuity contracts and GICs. We believe the measure of premiums and deposits is useful in understanding customer demand for our products, evolving product trends and our sales performance period over period.

Fee and Spread income and Underwriting Margin
Fee income is defined as policy fees plus advisory fees plus other fee income. For our Institutional Markets segment, its SVW products generate fee income.
Spread income is defined as net investment income less interest credited to policyholder account balances, excluding the amortization of deferred sales inducement assets. Spread income is comprised of both base spread income and variable investment income. For our Institutional Markets segment, its structured settlements, PRT and GIC products generate spread income, which includes premiums, net investment income, less interest credited and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update.
Underwriting margin for our Life Insurance segment includes premiums, policy fees, other income, net investment income, less interest credited to policyholder account balances and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update. For our Institutional Markets segment, its Corporate Markets products generate underwriting margin, which includes premiums, net investment income, policy and advisory fee income, less interest credited and policyholder benefits and excludes the annual assumption update.
Base portfolio income includes interest, dividends and foreclosed real estate income, net of investment expenses and non-qualifying (economic) hedges.
Variable investment income includes call and tender income on bonds, commercial mortgage loan prepayments, changes in market value of investments accounted for under the fair value option, interest received on defaulted investments (other than foreclosed real estate), income from alternative investments and other miscellaneous investment income, including income on certain partnership entities that are required to be consolidated. Alternative investments include private equity and real estate equity funds which are generally reported on a one-quarter lag.
Base spread income means base portfolio income less interest credited to policyholder account balances, excluding the amortization of deferred sales inducement assets.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 to Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 Net Income Comparison
Income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit)
We recorded pre-tax income of $97 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to pre-tax loss of $862 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. The change in pre-tax income was primarily due to:
•lower net realized losses of $1.1 billion primarily driven by lower losses from Fortitude Re related balances, favorable changes in foreign exchange transactions and lower losses from derivatives and index-linked interest credited embedded derivatives, net of related hedges; and
•lower policyholder benefits of $483 million primarily due to lower new pension risk transfer business;
Corebridge | First Quarter 2026 Form 10-Q 83
TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 Consolidated Results of Operations
Partially offset by:
•lower premiums of $484 million primarily due to lower new pension risk transfer business;
•lower policy fees of $110 million due to fees ceded to CSLR ; and
•higher interest credited to policyholder account balances of $108 million primarily due to higher crediting rates and growth in fixed and fixed index annuities and registered index-linked annuities and growing GIC business.
Income tax expense (benefit)
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there was an income tax expense of $158 million on pre-tax income from operations, resulting in an effective tax rate on income from operations of 162.9%, primarily due to an increase in valuation allowance.

APTOI decreased $81 million, primarily due to:
•lower premiums of $474 million primarily due to lower new pension risk transfer business;
•higher interest credited to policyholder account balances of $187 million primarily due to growth in fixed, fixed index and registered index-linked annuities and growing GIC business.
Partially offset by:
•lower policyholder benefits of $435 million primarily due to lower new pension risk transfer business; and
•higher net investment income of $148 million primarily driven by higher base portfolio income partially offset by lower variable investment income.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 2 | Business Segment Operations
Business Segment Operations
Our business operations consist of five reportable segments:
•Individual Retirement – consists of fixed annuities, fixed index annuities and registered index-linked annuities.
•Group Retirement – consists of recordkeeping, plan administrative and compliance services, financial planning and advisory solutions offered in-plan, along with proprietary and limited non-proprietary annuities, advisory and brokerage products offered out-of-plan.
•Life Insurance – consists of term and universal life insurance products in the United States.
•Institutional Markets – consists of SVW products, structured settlement and PRT annuities, GICs and Corporate Markets products that include corporate- and bank-owned life insurance (“COLI-BOLI”), private placement variable universal life and private placement variable annuities products.
•Corporate and Other – consists primarily of:
–corporate expenses not attributable to our other segments;
–interest expense on financial debt;
–results of our consolidated investment entities;
–institutional asset management business, which includes managing assets for non-consolidated affiliates;
–results of our legacy insurance lines ceded to Fortitude Re; and
–results of our individual variable annuity business that is reinsured to CSLR.
The closing with respect to the AGL Reinsurance Agreement occurred on August 1, 2025. Accordingly, retrospectively, effective in the third quarter of 2025, our individual variable annuity business previously reported in the Individual Retirement segment, is now included within Corporate and Other, consistent with how the CODM assesses its performance and allocates its resources. Prior periods presented herein have been recast to conform to the new segment presentation. Additionally, the results of operations from the variable annuity business have been excluded from APTOI as they are not indicative of our ongoing business operations.
The following tables summarize adjusted pre-tax operating income (loss) from our segments:

Financial Highlights
Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 to Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 APTOI Comparison
APTOI decreased $39 million, primarily due to:
•lower spread income of $30 million primarily driven by a decrease in variable investment income of $34 million due to lower alternative and yield enhancement income, partially offset by higher base spread income of $4 million primarily due to general account growth and asset optimization actions;
•higher amortization of DAC and DSI of $17 million primarily due to growth in the fixed index annuity and RILA business.
Partially offset by:
•higher policy fee income of $10 million, due to higher GMWB fees from growth in fixed index and fixed annuity business.

OVERVIEW
We regularly run strategic asset allocations (“SAA”) both at the specific business level portfolio as well as the overall portfolio. This SAA informs our investment strategies for each business operating unit. The SAA provides an asset mix that supports estimated cash flows of our outstanding liabilities and provides diversification from asset class, sector issuer and geographic perspectives.
The primary objectives of our portfolio optimization are generation of investment income, preservation of capital, liquidity management and growth of surplus. The majority of assets backing our insurance liabilities consist of fixed maturity securities, RMBS, CMBS, CLOs, other ABS and fixed maturity securities issued by government-sponsored entities and corporate entities. At March 31, 2026, of $238.4 billion of invested assets supporting our insurance operating companies, approximately 47% were in corporate debt securities. Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), ABS and CLOs represent 32% of our fixed income securities, of which 99% were investment grade. At December 31, 2025, of $239.3 billion of invested assets supporting our insurance operating companies, approximately 47% were in corporate debt securities. MBS, ABS and CLOs represent 32% of our fixed income securities and 99% were investment grade.
See “Business - Investment Management” in the 2025 Form 10-K for further information, including current and future management of our investment portfolio.
Key Investment Strategies
Investment strategies are assessed at the segment level and the insurance subsidiary level and involve considerations that include local and general market and economic conditions, duration and cash flow management, risk appetite and volatility constraints, rating agency and regulatory capital considerations, tax, regulatory and legal investment limitations, and, as applicable, environmental, social and governance considerations.
Some of our key investment strategies are as follows:
•we adhere to a strong asset-liability management discipline;
•we perform portfolio optimizations to determine strategic asset allocations. This informs portfolio construction that seeks investments with similar characteristics to the associated liabilities to the extent practicable;
•we seek to purchase investments that offer enhanced yield through illiquidity premiums, such as private placements and commercial mortgage and residential loans, which also add portfolio diversification. These assets typically afford credit protections through covenants, ability to customize structures that meet our insurance liability needs and deeper due diligence and borrower transparency;
•we seek investments that provide diversification from assets available in local markets. To the extent we purchase these investments, we generally hedge any currency risk using derivatives, which could provide opportunities to earn higher risk-adjusted returns compared to investments in the functional currency;
•we have a highly functioning, hybrid-origination model. We are able to originate attractive assets from both our deeply experienced internal teams as well as from our two major partners, Blackstone and BlackRock. This supports the growth of our business segments;
•we actively manage our assets and liabilities, counterparties and duration. Our liquidity sources are held primarily in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment grade rated fixed maturity securities that can be readily monetized through sales or repurchase agreements. Certain of our subsidiaries are members of the FHLBs in their respective districts, and we borrow from the FHLB utilizing its funding agreement program. Borrowings from FHLBs are used to supplement liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. This strategy allows us to both diversify our sources of liquidity and reduce the cost of maintaining sufficient liquidity;
•investments are generally split between reserve-backing and surplus portfolios:
–insurance liabilities are backed mainly by investment grade fixed maturity securities that meet our duration, risk-return, tax liquidity, credit quality and diversification objectives. We assess asset classes based on their fundamental underlying risk factors, including credit (public and private), commercial real estate and residential real estate, regardless of whether such investments are bonds, loans or structured products; and
–surplus investments seek to enhance portfolio returns and are generally comprised of a mix of fixed maturity investment grade and below investment grade securities and various alternative asset classes, including private equity, real estate equity and hedge funds. Over the past few years, hedge fund investments have been reduced; and
•we also utilize interest rate, credit and currency derivatives to manage our asset and liability duration as well as credit and currency exposure.

Asset-Liability Management
Our investment strategy is to invest in assets that generate net investment income to back policyholder benefit and deposit liabilities that result in stable distributable earnings and enhance portfolio value, subject to asset-liability management, capital, liquidity and regulatory constraints.
We use asset-liability management as a primary tool to monitor and manage interest rate and duration risk in our businesses. We maintain a diversified, high quality portfolio of fixed maturity securities issued by corporations, municipalities and other governmental agencies; structured securities collateralized by, among other assets, residential and commercial real estate; and commercial mortgage loans that, to the extent practicable, match the duration characteristics of the liabilities. We seek to diversify the portfolio across asset classes, sectors and issuers to mitigate idiosyncratic portfolio risks. The investment portfolio of each product line is tailored to the specific characteristics of its insurance liabilities, and as a result, duration varies between distinct portfolios. The interest rate environment has a direct impact on the asset liability management profile of the businesses, and changes in the interest rate environment may result in the need to lengthen or shorten the duration of the portfolio. In a rising rate environment, we may shorten the duration of the investment portfolio.
In addition, we seek to enhance surplus portfolio returns through investments in a diversified portfolio of alternative investments. Although these alternative investments are subject to earnings fluctuations, they have historically achieved accumulative returns over time in excess of the fixed maturity portfolio returns.

Credit Ratings
At March 31, 2026, nearly all our fixed maturity securities were held by our U.S. entities and 94% of these securities were rated investment grade by one or more of the principal rating agencies.
Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”), Fitch or similar foreign rating services rate a significant portion of our foreign entities’ fixed maturity securities portfolio. Rating services are not available for some foreign-issued securities. Our Investments team, with oversight from credit risk management, closely reviews the credit quality of the foreign portfolio’s non-rated fixed maturity securities.
NAIC Designations of Fixed Maturity Securities
The Securities Valuation Office (“SVO”) of the NAIC evaluates the investments of U.S. insurers for statutory reporting purposes and assigns fixed maturity securities to one of six categories called ‘NAIC Designations.’ In general, NAIC Designations of ‘1,’ highest quality, or ‘2,’ high quality, include fixed maturity securities considered investment grade, while NAIC Designations of ‘3’ through ‘6’ generally include fixed maturity securities referred to as below investment grade. NAIC Designations for non-agency RMBS and CMBS are calculated using third-party modeling results provided through the NAIC. These methodologies result in an improved NAIC Designation for such securities compared to the rating typically assigned by the three major rating agencies. The following tables summarize the ratings distribution of our subsidiaries’ fixed maturity security portfolio by NAIC Designation, and the distribution by composite our credit rating, which is generally based on ratings of the three major rating agencies. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 95% and 95%, respectively, of our fixed maturity security portfolio, excluding Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, were investment grade. The fixed maturity security portfolio of our insurance operating subsidiaries, excluding the Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, was 96% and 96% investment grade as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The remaining below investment grade securities that are not included in consolidated investment entities relate to middle market and high yield bank loans securities.

The allowance for credit losses was $9 million and $3 million for investment grade bonds, and $159 million and $127 million for below investment grade bonds as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Change in Unrealized Gains and Losses on Investments
The change in net unrealized gains and losses on investments for the three months ended March 31,2026 and 2025 were primarily attributable to changes in the fair value of fixed maturity securities. For the three months ended March 31,2026 net unrealized losses were $2.6 billion primarily due to widening of credit spreads. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, net unrealized gains were $2.0 billion primarily due to narrowing of credit spreads.

(a)The debt service coverage ratio compares a property’s net operating income to its debt service payments, including principal and interest. Our weighted average debt service coverage ratio was 1.9X at both periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The debt service coverage ratios are updated when additional relevant information becomes available.
(b)The loan-to-value ratio compares the current unpaid principal balance of the loan to the estimated fair value of the underlying property collateralizing the loan. Our weighted average loan-to-value ratio was 61% and 60% at both periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The loan-to-value ratios have been updated within the last three months to reflect the current carrying values of the loans. We update the valuations of collateral properties by obtaining independent appraisals, generally at least once per year.
(c)Does not reflect allowance for credit losses.

*Derivative activity related to hedging certain MRBs is recorded in Change in the fair value of MRBs, net. For additional disclosures about MRBs, see Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Lower net realized losses, excluding Fortitude Re funds withheld assets in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to same period in the prior year, were primarily due to lower losses on derivatives and gains on foreign exchange transactions in the current period compared to higher losses on derivatives and foreign exchange transactions in the same period in the prior year.
Index-linked interest credited embedded derivatives, net of related hedges, reflected lower losses in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to higher losses in the same period in the prior period. Fair value gains or losses in the hedging portfolio are typically not fully offset by increases or decreases in liabilities due to the non-performance or “own credit” risk adjustment used in the valuation of index-linked interest credited embedded derivatives, which are not hedged as part of our economic hedging program, and other risk margins used for valuation that cause the embedded derivatives to be less sensitive to changes in market rates than the hedge portfolio.
Net realized gains (losses) on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets primarily reflect changes in the valuation of the modified coinsurance and funds withheld assets. Increases in the valuation of these assets result in losses to Corebridge as the appreciation on the assets under those reinsurance arrangements must be transferred to Fortitude Re. Decreases in valuation of the assets result in gains to Corebridge as the depreciation on the assets under those reinsurance agreements must be transferred to Fortitude Re.

Derivatives and Hedge Accounting
We use derivatives and other financial instruments as part of our financial risk management programs and as part of our investment operations. Interest rate derivatives (such as interest rate swaps and bond forwards) are used to manage interest rate risk associated with both embedded derivatives and MRBs contained in insurance contract liabilities and fixed maturity securities as well as other interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. Foreign exchange derivatives (principally foreign exchange forwards and swaps) are used to economically mitigate risk associated with foreign denominated investments, net capital exposures and foreign currency transactions. Equity derivatives (such as equity futures, swaps and options) are used to mitigate financial risk embedded in certain insurance liabilities and economically hedge certain investments. We use credit derivatives to manage our credit exposures. The derivatives are effective economic hedges of the exposures that they are meant to offset. In addition to hedging activities, we also enter into derivative instruments with respect to investment operations, which may include, among other things, credit default swaps (“CDS”) and purchases of investments with embedded derivatives, such as equity linked notes and convertible bonds.
We designated certain derivatives entered into with related parties as fair value hedges of available-for-sale investment securities held by our insurance subsidiaries. The fair value hedges include foreign currency forwards and cross-currency swaps designated as hedges of the change in fair value of foreign currency denominated available-for-sale securities attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates. We also designated certain interest rate swaps entered into with both third parties and related parties as fair value hedges of fixed rate GICs and commercial mortgage loans attributable to changes in benchmark interest rates.
Credit risk associated with derivative counterparties exists for a derivative contract when that contract has a positive fair value to us. The maximum potential exposure may increase or decrease during the life of the derivative commitments as a function of maturity and market conditions. All derivative transactions must be transacted within counterparty limits.
We utilize various credit enhancements, including guarantees, collateral, credit triggers and margin agreements, to reduce the credit risk related to outstanding financial derivative transactions. We require credit enhancements in connection with specific transactions based on, among other things, the creditworthiness of the counterparties and the transaction size and maturity. Furthermore, we enter into certain agreements that have the benefit of set-off and close-out netting provisions, such as ISDA Master Agreements. These provisions provide that, in the case of an early termination of a transaction, we can set off receivables from a counterparty against payables to the same counterparty arising out of all covered transactions. As a result, where a legally enforceable netting agreement exists, the fair value of the transaction with the counterparty represents the net sum of estimated fair values.
For additional information on embedded derivatives, see Notes 4 and 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 2 | Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Capital Resources
OVERVIEW
Liquidity is defined as cash and unencumbered assets that can be monetized in a short period of time at a reasonable cost. In addition to the on-balance-sheet liquid assets, liquidity resources include availability under committed bank credit facilities.
Capital refers to the long-term financial resources available to support the operation of our businesses, fund business growth, and cover financial and operational needs that arise from adverse circumstances.
We aim to manage our liquidity and capital resources prudently through a well-defined risk management framework that involves various target operating thresholds, as well as minimum requirements during periods of stress.
We believe that we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to satisfy future requirements and meet our obligations to policyholders, customers, creditors and debt-holders, including those arising from reasonably foreseeable contingencies or events.
For a discussion regarding risks associated with liquidity and capital, see “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Investment Portfolio, Liquidity, Capital and Credit” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF COREBRIDGE PARENT AND INTERMEDIATE HOLDING COMPANIES
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Corebridge Parent and its non-regulated intermediate holding companies (“Corebridge Hold Cos.”) had $4.7 billion and $5.3 billion, respectively, in liquidity sources. These liquidity sources were primarily held in the form of cash and short-term investments and included a $3.0 billion and $3.0 billion committed revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Corebridge Hold Cos.’ primary sources of liquidity are dividends, loans and other payments from subsidiaries, sales of businesses and credit facilities. Corebridge Hold Cos.’ primary uses of liquidity are for debt service, capital and liability management, and operating expenses.
Corebridge Parent expects to maintain liquidity that is sufficient to at least cover one year of its expenses. We expect that the Corebridge Hold Cos. may access the debt and equity markets from time to time to meet funding requirements as needed.
We utilize our capital resources to support our businesses, with the majority of capital held by our insurance businesses. Corebridge Hold Cos. intend to manage capital between Corebridge Hold Cos. and our insurance companies through internal, Board-approved policies as well as management standards. Nevertheless, regulatory and other legal restrictions could limit our ability to transfer capital freely, either to or from our subsidiaries.
As of March 31, 2026, Corebridge Parent and certain of our subsidiaries were parties to several letter of credit agreements with various financial institutions which issue letters of credit from time to time in support of our subsidiaries (primarily, insurance companies) which totaled $276 million and $276 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Contributions
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, Corebridge Hold Cos. made capital contributions totaling $75 million to CRBG Bermuda.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF COREBRIDGE INSURANCE SUBSIDIARIES
Insurance Companies
We believe that our insurance companies have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to satisfy reasonably foreseeable future liquidity requirements and meet their obligations, including those arising from reasonably foreseeable contingencies or events, through cash from operations and, to the extent necessary, monetization of invested assets. Our insurance companies’ liquidity resources are primarily held in the form of cash, short-term investments and publicly traded, investment grade-rated fixed maturity securities.
The liquidity of each of our material insurance companies is monitored through various internal liquidity risk measures. The primary sources of liquidity are premiums, deposits, fees, reinsurance recoverables, investment income and maturities. The primary uses of liquidity are paid losses, reinsurance payments, benefit claims, surrenders, withdrawals, interest payments, dividends, expenses, investment purchases and collateral requirements.
Certain of our U.S. insurance companies are members of the FHLBs in their respective districts. Our borrowings from FHLBs are non-puttable and are used to supplement liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. Our U.S. insurance companies had $5.9 billion which were due to FHLBs in their respective districts at March 31, 2026, under funding agreements which were reported in policyholder contract deposits. These investment contracts do not have mortality or morbidity risk. Proceeds from funding agreements are generally invested in investments intended to generate spread income. In addition, our U.S. insurance companies had no outstanding borrowings in the form of cash advances from FHLBs at March 31, 2026.
Certain of our U.S. insurance companies have securities lending programs that lend securities from their investment portfolios to supplement liquidity or for other uses deemed appropriate by management. Under these programs, these U.S. insurance companies lend securities to financial institutions and receive cash as collateral equal to 102% of the fair value of the loaned securities. Cash collateral received is kept in cash or invested in short-term investments or used for short-term liquidity purposes.
The aggregate amount of securities that a U.S. insurance company can lend under its program at any time is limited to 5% of its general account statutory-basis admitted assets. Our U.S. insurance companies had $3.2 billion and $3.4 billion of securities subject to these agreements at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and $3.0 billion and $3.3 billion liabilities to borrowers for collateral received at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
We manage the capital of our Life Fleet Risk-Based Capital (“RBC”) ratio targeting above 400%. AGC serves as an affiliate reinsurance company. The surplus of AGC is comprised predominantly of the statutory surplus of the Life Fleet. Given that AGC has no primary operations outside of this internal reinsurance, we believe that excluding AGC from the Life Fleet RBC ratio calculation presents a more accurate view of the overall capital position of our U.S. operating entities. Our Life Fleet RBC ratio was above our minimum target Life Fleet RBC ratio of 400% as of December 31, 2025.
Dividend Restrictions
Payments of dividends to Corebridge Hold Cos. by our U.S. insurance subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions imposed by laws and regulations of their respective states of domicile. With respect to our domestic insurance subsidiaries, the payment of a dividend may require formal notice to the insurance department of the state in which the particular insurance subsidiary is domiciled, and prior approval of such insurance regulator is required when the amount of the dividend is above certain regulatory thresholds. See “Business — Regulation — U.S. Regulation — State Insurance Regulation” in the 2025 Form 10-K. Bermuda law also restricts the ability of CRBG Bermuda to pay dividends.
To our knowledge, no Corebridge insurance company is currently on any regulatory or similar “watch list” with regard to solvency.

REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
On March 26, 2025, Corebridge Parent entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “2025 Revolving Credit Agreement”). The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement replaces the 2022 Revolving Credit Agreement which was scheduled to mature in 2027. The 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a five-year total commitment of $3.0 billion revolving credit facility (the “2025 Credit Facility”). Under circumstances described in the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement, the aggregate commitments may be increased by up to $500 million, for a total commitment under the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement of $3.5 billion. Loans under the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement will mature on March 26, 2030. Under the 2025 Revolving Credit Agreement, the applicable rate, commitment fee and letter of credit fee were determined by reference to the credit ratings of Corebridge Parent’s senior, unsecured, long-term indebtedness. Borrowings bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) with respect to loans in US Dollars, an alternative base rate plus an applicable margin or the adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus an applicable margin, (ii) with respect to loans in Euros, the adjusted European Union interbank Offer Rate (“EURIBOR”) plus an applicable margin, (iii) with respect to loans in Pounds Sterling, the adjusted Daily Simple Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA”) Rate plus an applicable margin and (iv) with respect to loans in Japanese Yen, the adjusted Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate (“TIBOR”) plus an applicable margin. There are no borrowings outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility.
For additional information on debt outstanding and revolving credit facilities, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.
DEBT OF CONSOLIDATED INVESTMENT ENTITIES
Our non-financial debt includes debt of consolidated investment entities and such debt does not represent our contractual obligation and is non-recourse to Corebridge.

CREDIT RATINGS
Credit ratings estimate a company’s ability to meet its obligations and may directly affect the cost and availability of financing to that company.

(a)Moody’s appends numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to the generic rating categories to show relative position within the rating categories. Moody’s has a stable ratings outlook.
(b)S&P ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. S&P has placed the ratings on CreditWatch with negative implications due to the pending merger with Equitable.
(c)Fitch ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. Fitch has a positive rating outlook due to the pending merger with Equitable.
These credit ratings are current opinions of the rating agencies. They may be changed, suspended or withdrawn at any time by the rating agencies because of changes in, or unavailability of, information or based on other circumstances. Ratings may also be withdrawn at our request.
We are party to some agreements that contain “ratings triggers.” Depending on the ratings maintained by one or more rating agencies, these triggers could result in (i) the termination or limitation of credit availability or a requirement for accelerated repayment, (ii) the termination of business contracts or (iii) a requirement to post collateral for the benefit of counterparties.
In the event of a downgrade of our long-term debt ratings or our insurance subsidiaries’ Insurer Financial Strength (“IFS”) ratings, we would be required to post additional collateral under some derivative and other transactions, or certain of the counterparties of such other of our subsidiaries would be permitted to terminate such transactions early.
The actual amount of collateral that we or certain of our subsidiaries would be required to post to counterparties in the event of such downgrades, or the aggregate amount of payments that we could be required to make, depends on market conditions, the fair value of outstanding affected transactions and other factors prevailing at the time of the downgrade.
INSURER FINANCIAL STRENGTH RATINGS
IFS ratings estimate an insurance company’s ability to pay its obligations under an insurance policy.

Accounting Policies and Pronouncements
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. On a regular basis, we review estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a detailed discussion of our significant accounting policies and accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 in the 2025 Form 10-K.
| The accounting policies that we believe are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions, which are critical accounting estimates, are related to the determination of: | ||
•fair value measurements of certain financial assets and liabilities;
•valuation of MRBs, including ceded MRBs, related to guaranteed benefit features (collectively known as “GMxBs”), of variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity products;
•valuation of embedded derivative liabilities for fixed index annuity, registered index-linked annuity and index universal life products;
•valuation of future policy benefit liabilities and recognition of remeasurement gains and losses;
•reinsurance assets, including the allowance for credit losses;
•allowance for credit losses primarily on loans and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities; and
•income tax assets and liabilities, including recoverability of our net deferred tax asset and the predictability of future tax operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset.
These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity could be materially affected.

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Corebridge management, with the participation of Corebridge’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2026. Based on this evaluation, Corebridge’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)) that have occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A | Risk Factors
Risks Relating to the Proposed Mergers
The completion of the Mergers is subject to a number of conditions, including stockholder approvals, and, if these conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Mergers may not be completed within the expected time frame or at all.
The completion of the Mergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including: (a) the approval of the merger agreement and the Corebridge Merger by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Corebridge special stockholder meeting; (b) the approval of the merger agreement and the Equitable Merger by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Equitable common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Equitable special stockholder meeting; (c) the approval for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, of shares of New Equitable common stock, Series 1-A New Equitable Preferred Stock and Series 1-C New Equitable Preferred Stock issuable in accordance with the merger agreement; (d) the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals or clearances, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, approvals from insurance regulators in Arizona, Colorado, Missouri, New York, Texas and Vermont and approvals of certain other domestic and foreign regulators; (e) the absence of governmental restraints or prohibitions preventing the consummation of either of the Mergers; (f) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 and absence of any stop order or proceeding by the Securities and Exchange Commission suspending such effectiveness, unless subsequently withdrawn; (g) the receipt by each party of a tax opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such party, providing that the Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a transaction described in Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; and (h) the consent of Equitable clients representing 75% of Equitable’s annualized investment advisory, investment management, subadvisory and other similar recurring fees as of February 26, 2026 to the “assignment” (as defined in the Investment Advisers Act of 1940) of their advisory contracts.
The obligation of each of Corebridge and Equitable to consummate the Mergers is also conditioned on, among other things, (i) the truth and correctness of the representations and warranties made by the other party as of the Closing date (subject to certain “materiality” and “material adverse effect” qualifiers), (ii) each of Corebridge, Equitable, New Equitable, Corebridge Merger Sub and Equitable Merger Sub having performed or complied in all material respects with the obligations required to be performed or complied with by it under the merger agreement at or prior to the Closing and (iii) no “material adverse effect” having occurred with respect to either Corebridge or Equitable that is continuing.
There can be no assurance that the conditions to the completion of the Mergers will be satisfied or waived on a timely basis or at all. In addition, no assurance can be given as to the terms, conditions and timing of any approvals or clearances. Any delay in completing the Mergers could cause the parties not to realize, or to be delayed in realizing, some or all of the benefits that the parties expect to achieve in the Mergers. If the conditions to the completion of the Mergers are not satisfied or waived, the Mergers may not be completed within the expected time frame or at all.
While the Mergers are pending, we will be subject to business uncertainties.
The Mergers will happen only if the stated conditions are satisfied or waived, including, among others, the approval of the merger agreement and the Corebridge Merger by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Corebridge special stockholder meeting and the approval of the merger agreement and the Equitable Merger by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Equitable common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Equitable special stockholder meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
ITEM 1A | Risk Factors
Many of the conditions are outside our control, and both we and Equitable have certain rights to terminate the merger agreement. Uncertainty regarding the outcome of the Mergers or our prospects could disrupt our business relationships with our customers, distributors, vendors, landlords and other strategic or business partners, who may attempt to negotiate changes to existing business relationships, consider entering into business relationships with parties other than us or seek to delay or defer entering into contracts or other commercial arrangements with us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, regardless of whether the Mergers are ultimately completed. Such uncertainty could also adversely affect our ability to recruit and retain key personnel and other employees.
The merger agreement contains pre-closing covenants that requires each of us and Equitable to conduct our respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course of business, and restricts what we can do prior to completion of the Mergers, including, during the pendency of the Merger, our ability to pursue strategic transactions, undertake certain significant financing transactions and other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial and may cause us to forgo certain opportunities we might otherwise pursue.
We have expended, and continue to expend, significant management time and resources in an effort to complete the Mergers, which may have a negative impact on our ongoing business and operations.
Litigation filed in connection with the Mergers could prevent or delay the consummation of the mergers or result in the payment of damages following completion of the Mergers.
Lawsuits in connection with the Mergers may be filed against us, Equitable, New Equitable, Corebridge Merger Sub or Equitable Merger Sub and their respective directors and officers, which could prevent or delay the consummation of the Mergers, divert management’s attention and resources, and result in additional costs to us. The ultimate resolution of any lawsuits is uncertain, and an adverse ruling in any such lawsuit may cause the Mergers to be delayed or not to be completed, which could cause us not to realize some or all of the anticipated benefits of the Mergers. The defense or settlement of any lawsuit or claim that remains unresolved at the time the Mergers are consummated may adversely affect New Equitable’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Failure to complete the Mergers could adversely affect us, including in the event we are required to pay the termination fee.
We or Equitable may terminate the merger agreement under specified circumstances, including, among others, if the Mergers are not completed by December 26, 2026 (subject to two automatic three-month extensions in certain circumstances, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement). In addition, the merger agreement provides for the payment by us to Equitable, or vice versa, of a termination fee of $475,000,000 under specified circumstances. If we are required to pay the termination fee, we may be required to use available cash that would have otherwise been available for general corporate purposes or other uses, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
If the Mergers are not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected and will be subject to certain risks, including, among others, the following:
•the market price of our common stock (which may reflect a market assumption that the Mergers will be completed) may decline, or we may experience other negative reactions from the financial markets;
•we will have incurred, and may continue to incur, significant expenses for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the Mergers for which we will have received little or no benefit if the Mergers are not completed;
•we may experience negative reactions from our customers, business partners, regulators and employees;
•failure to complete the Mergers may result in negative publicity or result in a negative impression of us in the investment community and with policyholders and other stakeholders; and
•matters relating to the Mergers require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which would otherwise have been devoted to day-to-day operations and other opportunities that may have been beneficial to us.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K.

On May 4, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a $1.0 billion Share Repurchase Program (“Program”) which has subsequently been expanded. Most recently, on June 23, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized an additional $2.0 billion increase in the share repurchase amount under the Program. Under this Program, Corebridge Parent may, from time to time, purchase shares of Corebridge Parent common stock but is not obligated to purchase any particular number of shares. The authorization for the Program may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Board of Directors at any time.
Under the Program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, through private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions or otherwise. For instance, on February 12, 2026, we purchased an aggregate of approximately $750 million of shares from AIG in a privately negotiated transaction. In addition, certain of our share repurchases have been and may from time to time be effected through Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plans. The timing of any future share repurchases will depend on market conditions, our business and strategic plans, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and other factors. Pursuant to the terms of the Mergers and until the Closing or the termination of the parties’ merger agreement, Corebridge is restricted from repurchasing shares of Corebridge Parent common stock without the written pre-approval of Equitable. On April 15, 2026, we announced that in consultation with representatives of Equitable, we are exploring undertaking repurchases of our common stock prior to the Closing including during the period from the filing with the SEC of the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Mergers until the commencement of mailing of such preliminary proxy statement/prospectus. There can be no assurance that we will determine to make such share repurchases during the above noted time period and if undertaken, the volume, pricing, timing and method of repurchases of shares of our common stock will be at our discretion.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, Corebridge Parent repurchased approximately 41 million shares of Corebridge Parent common stock, par value $0.01 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 billion, pursuant to the Program.
As of March 31, 2026, approximately $1.3 billion remained under the Program authorizations.
For additional information related to share repurchases see Note 16 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
