FIRST QUARTER 2023 NOTEWORTHY ITEMS

• General Insurance adjusted pre-tax income (APTI) increased $37 million to $1.2 billion from the prior year quarter as a result of better underwriting results with 1.0 point of combined ratio improvement, and higher investment income on fixed maturity securities and loans, partially offset by lower alternative investment income.
• Life and Retirement APTI decreased $48 million to $886 million from the prior year quarter, due to lower alternative investment income and lower fee income, partially offset by higher base portfolio income and improved mortality experience.
• Net income attributable to AIG common shareholders was $23 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share, compared to $4.2 billion, or $5.04 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter.
• AATI was $1.21 billion, or $1.63 per diluted common share, compared to $1.49 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a 10% reduction in weighted average diluted shares outstanding as well as better underwriting results and higher net investment income.
• Return on common equity (ROCE) and adjusted ROCE* were 0.2% and 8.7%, respectively, on an annualized basis. Adjusted ROCE for General Insurance was 11.6% and for Life and Retirement 10.7%, both on an annualized basis.
• As of March 31, 2023, book value per common share was $58.87, an increase of 7% compared to $55.15 at December 31, 2022. Adjusted book value per common share* was $75.87, in line with $75.90 at December 31, 2022.

American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

AIG Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Peter Zaffino said: “AIG successfully navigated a complex environment to produce excellent first quarter results that demonstrate our ability to deliver high-quality outcomes for stakeholders, grow our business, manage volatility, and improve profitability. We also continue to execute on achieving underwriting and operational excellence, and capital and investment management strategies.

“General Insurance net premiums written increased 5% year-over-year. On a constant dollar basis and adjusted for the International lag elimination, net premiums written increased 10%, driven by strong growth in North America Commercial led by Validus Re and Lexington, and International Commercial, led by Global Specialty. North America Commercial rate, excluding Workers’ Compensation, re-accelerated with an 8% increase in the quarter, and International Commercial rate also increased 8%, in each case exceeding loss cost trends.

“Improvement in our combined ratios and underwriting profitability continued. The combined ratio was 91.9% and the accident year combined ratio, ex-CAT, was 88.7%, a 100-basis point and 80-basis point improvement, respectively, from the prior year quarter. In Global Commercial, the combined ratio was 89.2%, a 180-basis point improvement from the prior year quarter and the accident year combined ratio, ex-CAT, was 84.9%, a 110-basis point improvement from the prior year quarter. Underwriting income was over $500 million, representing the strongest first quarter underwriting results AIG has achieved. These significant accomplishments demonstrate that our strategy in General Insurance of focusing on underwriting excellence and volatility management enables sustainable growth and underwriting profitability over the long-term.

“Our Life and Retirement business (known as Corebridge Financial, Inc.) had a very strong quarter reflecting its market-leading position and promising future as a standalone company. Premiums grew 159% to $2.2 billion. Premiums and deposits* grew 44% to $10.4 billion supported by record sales in Fixed Annuity and Fixed Index Annuity products. Base investment yield grew by 60 basis points year-over-year, driven by higher reinvestment yield. Individual Retirement net flows in the General Account were positive $1.3 billion in the quarter.

“Net investment income was $3.5 billion in the first quarter and $3.1 billion on an APTI basis. This reflects our active management of the portfolio over the last several quarters to improve the overall quality of investments and reduce volatility. We saw significant uplift from new money investments as well as higher resets on floating rate securities.

“We continued to execute on our capital management strategy, maintaining strong insurance subsidiary capital and parent liquidity. During the first quarter, we returned $844 million to shareholders through $603 million of AIG common stock repurchases and $241 million of AIG dividends.

“In addition, the AIG Board of Directors approved a 12.5% increase in our quarterly common stock dividend to $0.36 per share starting in the second quarter of 2023, another milestone that reflects the confidence we have in the future earnings power of AIG.

“The environment we operate in is continually shifting and remains volatile and unpredictable. I am very proud of how our colleagues remain focused on and dedicated to making significant progress on our journey to become a top performing company, despite challenging external factors. Our first quarter results demonstrate the resilience of AIG and our steadfast commitment to long-term value creation for our shareholders and other stakeholders.”

For the first quarter of 2023, pre-tax loss from continuing operations was $231 million, compared to pre-tax income of $5.7 billion in the prior year quarter. Net income attributable to AIG common shareholders was $23 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share, compared to $4.2 billion, or $5.04 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter. The decline was mostly due to net realized losses on Fortitude Re funds withheld embedded derivative as well as net realized losses excluding Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and embedded derivative, and lower alternative investment income, partially offset by higher General Insurance underwriting income and investment income on the fixed maturity securities and loan portfolios. These pre-tax movements were partially offset by a lower income tax expense as well as a higher net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest due to noncontrolling interest losses on Corebridge in 2023 compared to gains in 2022 and the 12.4% public floating interest from the initial public offering (IPO).

AATI was $1.21 billion, or $1.63 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $1.23 billion, or $1.49 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in AATI was driven by lower alternative investment income, partially offset by higher General Insurance underwriting results and net investment income on the fixed maturity securities and loan portfolios.

Total consolidated net investment income for the first quarter of 2023 was $3.5 billion, an increase of 9% from $3.2 billion in the prior year quarter, benefiting from $618 million of improvement in interest and dividends as a result of higher yields on the fixed maturity securities and loan portfolios, partially offset by lower alternative investment income. Total net investment income on an APTI basis* was $3.1 billion, an increase of $77 million from the prior year quarter.

As of March 31, 2023, AIG’s total invested assets, excluding Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, was $285.2 billion. The Commercial Mortgage Loan (CML) balance was 12% of total invested assets with weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 59% and weighted average debt service coverage ratio of 1.9x. The largest property type of CML portfolio is multifamily housing. Office loans account for 3% of total invested assets with concentration in major metropolitan areas, and 79% are Class A properties.

On January 1, 2023, AIG adopted the new accounting standard for Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts (the standard or LDTI), with a transition date of January 1, 2021. AIG adopted the standard using the modified retrospective transition method relating to liabilities for traditional and limited payment contracts and deferred policy acquisition costs. AIG also adopted the standard in relation to market risk benefits on a full retrospective basis. The previously reported 2021 and 2022 financial results have been recast for LDTI related changes. This resulted in a cumulative increase in AIG common shareholders' equity of $1.0 billion from $39.5 billion, as originally reported, to $40.5 billion at December 31, 2022, and an increase in AIG adjusted common shareholders’ equity* of $1.5 billion or 2.8% from $54.2 billion to $55.7 billion, as recast.

Book value per common share was $58.87 as of March 31, 2023, an increase of 7% from December 31, 2022 and a decrease of 16% from March 31, 2022. The year-over-year decrease was driven by the increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCI) as a result of higher interest rates. Adjusted book value per common share was $75.87, in line with December 31, 2022 and an increase of 4% from March 31, 2022, primarily due to share repurchases in the past twelve months. Adjusted tangible book value per common share* was $69.37, a decrease of 0.1% from December 31, 2022 and an increase of 4% from March 31, 2022.

For the first quarter of 2023, AIG repurchased $603 million of common stock or approximately 11 million shares, paid $241 million of common and preferred dividends, issued $750 million of senior unsecured notes, and ended the quarter with parent liquidity of $3.9 billion. AIG’s ratio of total debt and preferred stock to total capital at March 31, 2023 was 32.8%, down from 33.6% at December 31, 2022, primarily driven by AOCI mark-to-market adjustments for certain investment portfolios, partially offset by the March debt issuance. Excluding AOCI, the total debt and preferred stock to total capital ratio was 26.3% at March 31, 2023.

The AIG Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on AIG common stock of $0.36 per share, a 12.5% increase from the prior dividend paid in March 2023 of $0.32 per share. The dividend is payable on June 30, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 16, 2023.

The AIG Board of Directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $365.625 per share on AIG Series A 5.85% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, which is represented by depositary shares (NYSE: AIG PRA), each representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of preferred stock. Holders of depositary shares will receive $0.365625 per depositary share. The dividend is payable on June 15, 2023 to holders of record at the close of business on May 31, 2023.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

GENERAL INSURANCE

General Insurance

• First quarter 2023 NPW of $7.0 billion increased 5% from the prior year quarter, which had International reported on a one month lag and included the impact of a weaker US dollar compared to first quarter 2022. On a constant dollar basis and adjusted for the lag elimination, NPW increased 10%, driven by solid North America Commercial Lines growth of 15% attributed to strong new business levels and higher retention on renewals as well as International Commercial Lines growth of 6%. Commercial Lines NPW growth benefited from higher renewal premium rates in most lines, particularly in Validus Re and Lexington, offset in part by a decline in Financial Lines due to lower premium rates and reduced capital markets activities. Personal Insurance NPW grew 6% on a constant dollar basis and adjusted for the lag elimination, primarily driven by lower quota share cession in North America Personal Lines, partially offset by the non-renewal of a contract in International Accident & Health.
• First quarter 2023 APTI increased by $37 million to $1.2 billion from the prior year quarter due to higher underwriting income, which increased by $56 million to $502 million. Included in this result was $264 million of total catastrophe-related charges, representing 4.2 loss ratio points, of which, $126 million was due to two storms in New Zealand, compared to $288 million, or 4.5 loss ratio points, in the prior year quarter. Total catastrophe-related charges were $116 million in North America and $148 million in International. First quarter 2023 also included favorable prior year development (PYD), net of reinsurance, of $68 million compared to favorable PYD of $93 million in the prior year quarter.
• The combined ratio improved 1.0 point from the prior year quarter to 91.9%. The AYCR improved 0.8 point from the prior year quarter to 88.7%, driven by a 0.8 point decrease in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted* to 56.7%, reflecting continued earned-in rate exceeding loss cost trends in Commercial Lines. The expense ratio was flat at 32.0%.
• Global Commercial Lines underwriting results continued to improve. The combined ratios for North America Commercial Lines and International Commercial Lines each improved 1.7 points to 87.1% and 91.9%, respectively, compared to the prior year quarter. The AYCR for North America Commercial Lines improved 2.4 points to 85.7%, and for International Commercial Lines increased by 0.2 point to 83.7%, driven by higher assumed allocation expenses, compared to the prior year quarter.
• Global Personal Insurance underwriting income was lower, reflecting a mix shift in premiums and lower premiums earned compared to the prior year quarter. The North America Personal Insurance combined ratio of 107.9% and AYCR of 107.6%, increased 5.3 points and 2.4 points, respectively, compared to the prior year quarter, driven by higher catastrophe losses from February U.S. winter storms and a higher acquisition ratio due to changes in business mix and reinsurance structure. The International Personal Insurance combined ratio of 96.4% and AYCR of 95.9%, each had an increase of 0.7 point, from the prior year quarter, due to changes in business mix and an increase in general operating expense ratio attributable to the decline in premiums earned.
• General Insurance return on adjusted segment common equity for the first quarter was 11.6% on an annualized basis, compared with 12.3% in the prior year quarter.

LIFE AND RETIREMENT

Life and Retirement

• Life and Retirement reported APTI of $886 million for the first quarter of 2023, down 5% from $934 million in the prior year quarter. The decline was primarily driven by lower alternative investment returns and fee income, partially offset by higher base investment portfolio income and improved mortality experience. Base net investment yield increased by 60 basis points year-over-year.
• Premiums increased to $2.2 billion from $0.8 billion and premiums and deposits* increased 44% to $10.4 billion from $7.3 billion, from the prior year quarter. This quarter benefited from strong sales in Fixed Annuities and Fixed Index Annuities as well as higher Group Retirement plan acquisitions and higher volume of transactional businesses with $1.5 billion of pension risk transfer activity and approximately $500 million of guaranteed investment contracts. Individual Retirement General Account net flows were $1.3 billion, up $542 million from last quarter.
• The capital position of the business remains healthy with a Risk-Based Capital (RBC) ratio in the 410%-420% range, above our target levels.
• Life and Retirement return on adjusted segment common equity for the first quarter was 10.7% on an annualized basis, compared with 12.2% in the prior year quarter.

OTHER OPERATIONS

Other Operations

• Other Operations adjusted pre-tax loss (APTL) of $491 million increased $70 million largely due to the impact of Consolidated Investment Entities (CIEs) on net investment income and consolidation and eliminations.
• Before consolidation and eliminations, APTL deteriorated by $146 million, due to a decrease in alternative investment income and higher interest expense from operating debt primarily driven by Asset Management Group, partially offset by higher income from fixed maturity securities and short term investment as a result of yield uplift on parent liquidity funds and lower corporate general operating expenses.
• Corporate general operating expenses decreased $27 million from the prior year quarter, despite an additional $29 million of expenses related to establishing Corebridge as a standalone company. Excluding this additional expense, corporate general operating expenses decreased $56 million year-over-year.
• Consolidation and elimination activities decreased to $(57) million, driven by lower income from CIEs which are allocated to the operating companies and eliminated in Other Operations.

COMMENT ON REGULATION G AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Throughout this press release, including the financial highlights, AIG presents its financial condition and results of operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful and representative of its business results. Some of the measurements AIG uses are “Non-GAAP financial measures” under SEC rules and regulations. GAAP is the acronym for generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The non-GAAP financial measures AIG presents are listed below and may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies. The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in accordance with Regulation G are included within the relevant tables attached to this news release or in the First Quarter 2023 Financial Supplement available in the Investors section of AIG’s website, www.aig.com.

Unless otherwise mentioned or unless the context indicates otherwise, we use the terms “AIG,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to American International Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

AIG uses the following operating performance measures because AIG believes they enhance the understanding of the underlying profitability of continuing operations and trends of AIG’s business segments. AIG believes they also allow for more meaningful comparisons with AIG’s insurance competitors. When AIG uses these measures, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided on a consolidated basis.

Book value per common share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and deferred tax assets (DTA) (Adjusted book value per common share) is used to show the amount of our net worth on a per-common share basis after eliminating items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value (1) of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, (2) of market risk benefits attributable to our own credit risk and (3) due to discount rates used to measure traditional and limited payment long-duration insurance contracts, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. This measure also eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets held by AIG in support of Fortitude Re’s reinsurance obligations to AIG post deconsolidation of Fortitude Re (Fortitude Re funds withheld assets) since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re. We exclude deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in these book value per common share metrics. Adjusted book value per common share is derived by dividing total AIG common shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and DTA (Adjusted common shareholders’ equity), by total common shares outstanding.

Book Value per Common Share, Excluding Goodwill, Value of Business Acquired (VOBA), Value of Distribution Channel Acquired (VODA), Other Intangible Assets, AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) (Adjusted Tangible Book Value per Common Share) is used to provide more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder on a per-common share basis. Adjusted Tangible Book Value per Common Share is derived by dividing Total AIG common shareholders’ equity, excluding intangible assets, AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and DTA (Adjusted Tangible Common Shareholders’ Equity), by total common shares outstanding.

AIG Return on Common Equity (ROCE) – Adjusted After-tax Income Excluding AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and DTA (Adjusted return on common equity) is used to show the rate of return on common shareholders’ equity. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it eliminates items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value (1) of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, (2) of market risk benefits attributable to our own credit risk and (3) due to discount rates used to measure traditional and limited payment long-duration insurance contracts, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. This measure also eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re. We exclude deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in Adjusted Return on Common Equity. Adjusted Return on Common Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized adjusted after-tax income attributable to AIG common shareholders by average Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity.

General Insurance and Life and Retirement Adjusted Segment Common Equity is based on segment equity adjusted for the attribution of debt and preferred stock (Segment Common Equity) and is consistent with AIG’s Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity definition.

General Insurance and Life and Retirement Return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity – Adjusted After-tax Income (Return on adjusted segment common equity) is used to show the rate of return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity. Return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized Adjusted After-tax Income by Average Adjusted Segment Common Equity.

Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to General Insurance and Life and Retirement is derived by subtracting attributed interest expense, income tax expense and attributed dividends on preferred stock from APTI. Attributed debt and the related interest expense and dividends on preferred stock are calculated based on our internal allocation model. Tax expense or benefit is calculated based on an internal attribution methodology that considers among other things the taxing jurisdiction in which the segments conduct business, as well as the deductibility of expenses in those jurisdictions.

Adjusted revenues exclude Net realized gains (losses), income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes), changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits (included in Net investment income for GAAP purposes) and income from elimination of the International reporting lag. Adjusted revenues is a GAAP measure for our segments.

Adjusted Pre-tax Income (APTI) is derived by excluding the items set forth below from income from continuing operations before income tax. This definition is consistent across our segments. 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 measures that we believe to be common to the industry. APTI is a GAAP measure for our segments. Excluded items include the following:

• changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits;
• net change in market risk benefits (MRBs);
• changes in benefit reserves related to net realized gains and losses;
• changes in the fair value of equity securities;
• net investment income on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets;
• following deconsolidation of Fortitude Re, net realized gains and losses on Fortitude Re funds withheld assets;
• loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt;
• all net realized gains and losses except earned income (periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals) on derivative instruments used for non-qualifying (economic) hedging or for asset replication. Earned income on such economic hedges is reclassified from net realized gains and losses to specific APTI line items based on the economic risk being hedged (e.g. net investment income and interest credited to policyholder account balances);
• income or loss from discontinued operations;
• net loss reserve discount benefit (charge);
• pension expense related to lump sum payments to former employees;
• net gain or loss on divestitures and other;
• non-operating litigation reserves and settlements;
• restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify our organization;
• the portion of favorable or unfavorable prior year reserve development for which we have ceded the risk under retroactive reinsurance agreements and related changes in amortization of the deferred gain;
• integration and transaction costs associated with acquiring or divesting businesses;
• losses from the impairment of goodwill;
• non-recurring costs associated with the implementation of non-ordinary course legal or regulatory changes or changes to accounting principles; and
• income from elimination of the international reporting lag.

Adjusted After-tax Income attributable to AIG common shareholders (AATI) is derived by excluding the tax effected APTI adjustments described above, dividends on preferred stock, noncontrolling interest on net realized gains (losses), other non-operating expenses and the following tax items from net income attributable to AIG:

• deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges;
• changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax items related to legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; and
• net tax charge related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

See page 15 for the reconciliation of Net income attributable to AIG to Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to AIG.

Ratios: We, along with most property and casualty insurance companies, use the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned, the amount of losses and loss adjustment expenses (which for General Insurance excludes net loss reserve discount), and the amount of other underwriting expenses that would be incurred. A combined ratio of less than 100 indicates underwriting income and a combined ratio of over 100 indicates an underwriting loss. Our ratios are calculated using the relevant segment information calculated under GAAP, and thus may not be comparable to similar ratios calculated for regulatory reporting purposes. The underwriting environment varies across countries and products, as does the degree of litigation activity, all of which affect such ratios. In addition, investment returns, local taxes, cost of capital, regulation, product type and competition can have an effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting income and associated ratios.

Accident year loss and Accident year combined ratios, as adjusted (Accident year loss ratio, ex-CAT and Accident year combined ratio, ex-CAT): both the accident year loss and accident year combined ratios, as adjusted, exclude catastrophe losses (CATs) and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting. Natural catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events, in each case, having a net impact on AIG in excess of $10 million and man-made catastrophe losses, such as terrorism and civil disorders that exceed the $10 million threshold. We believe that as adjusted ratios are meaningful measures of our underwriting results on an ongoing basis as they exclude catastrophes and the impact of reserve discounting which are outside of management’s control. We also exclude prior year development to provide transparency related to current accident year results.

Underwriting ratios are computed as follows:

Premiums and deposits: includes direct and assumed amounts received and earned on traditional life insurance policies, group benefit policies and life-contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life, investment-type annuity contracts, Federal Home Loan Bank funding agreements and mutual funds. 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.

Results from discontinued operations are excluded from all of these measures.
