Jackson Financial Inc. (NYSE: JXN) (Jackson®) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Key Highlights
Laura Prieskorn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jackson, stated, “Jackson’s second quarter results highlight our distribution strength and consistent capital generation. Our retail annuity sales were up 36% from the second quarter of 2023 driven by record RILA sales that further diversify our product mix. Consistent with our move to smaller, periodic operating company distributions, Jackson National Life distributed $250 million to its parent during the second quarter. We are well-positioned relative to our financial targets, as we maintained more than $1 billion in excess capital above our targeted minimum RBC ratio of 425%, returned $144 million to common shareholders during the second quarter, and increased our excess cash at the holding company. We anticipate building on this momentum through the remainder of 2024 and continuing to deliver on our mission of helping Americans achieve financial freedom for life.”
Consolidated Second Quarter 2024 Results
The Company reported net income attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders of $264 million, or $3.43 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.2 billion, or $14.21 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The lower current period net income was primarily due to an unfavorable net hedging result compared to the prior year’s second quarter. The prior year’s second quarter reflected a larger market risk benefits gain resulting from comparatively greater increases in interest rates and more favorable fund performance. The current quarter net income reflects a $71 million gain from business reinsured to third parties, while the prior year’s second quarter included a gain of $118 million. The results of reinsured business can differ significantly quarter to quarter; however, these results do not impact our statutory capital or free cash flow and have a minimal net impact on shareholders’ equity because of the offset from related changes in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI). We believe the non-GAAP measure of adjusted operating earnings better represents the underlying performance of our business as the figure excludes, among other things, changes in fair value of derivative instruments and market risk benefits tied to market volatility.
Adjusted operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2024, were $410 million, or $5.32 per diluted share, compared to $283 million or $3.34 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The current quarter adjusted operating earnings benefited from improved spread income, increased fee income resulting from higher average variable annuity assets under management (AUM), and reduced diluted share count due to common share repurchases. These were partially offset by higher market-related costs and other expenses.
Total common shareholders’ equity was $9.6 billion or $125.25 per diluted share as of June 30, 2024, compared to $9.6 billion or $121.29 per diluted share as of December 31, 2023. Adjusted book value attributed to common shareholders2 was $11.5 billion or $150.35 per diluted share as of June 30, 2024, compared to $10.8 billion or $136.34 per diluted share as of December 31, 2023. The increase was driven primarily by adjusted operating earnings of $744 million as well as non-operating, net hedging gains during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Retail Annuities
Retail Annuities reported pretax adjusted operating earnings of $465 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $328 million in the second quarter of 2023. The current quarter benefited from higher fee income resulting from higher average variable annuity AUM, and higher spread income. These items were partially offset by higher market-related costs and other expenses in the current quarter.
Total annuity sales of $4.2 billion in the second quarter of 2024 were up 36% from the second quarter of 2023, driven by record RILA sales of $1.4 billion, up 163% from the second quarter of 2023. Traditional variable annuity sales in the current quarter of $2.7 billion were up 11% from the second quarter of 2023. Fixed and fixed indexed annuity sales in the current quarter totaled $85 million, compared to $115 million in the second quarter of 2023.
Institutional Products
Institutional Products reported pretax adjusted operating earnings of $29 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $17 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase from the prior year’s second quarter was due to higher spread income. Net flows were $(619) million in the current quarter, and total account value of $7.3 billion was down from $8.9 billion in the second quarter of 2023.
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks reported pretax adjusted operating income of $35 million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to $7 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase from the prior year’s quarter was primarily due to improved mortality and lower other policyholder benefits expense.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other reported a pretax adjusted operating loss of $(56) million in the second quarter of 2024 compared to a loss of $(47) million in the second quarter of 2023. The decline was primarily due to lower other income and net investment income, partially offset by lower operating expenses.

$4.7
$4.7
Statutory TAC at JNLIC was $4.7 billion as of June 30, 2024, in line with March 31, 2024. TAC was supported by strong base contract cash flows which generated substantial statutory capital during the quarter. This was broadly offset by a $250 million distribution to JFI during the second quarter and the related reduction in deferred tax asset admissibility. JNLIC’s estimated RBC ratio as of June 30, 2024 was 550-570%, down slightly from 555-575% as of March 31, 2024 due to a modest increase in estimated company action level (CAL) required capital.
Cash and highly liquid securities at the holding company totaled over $500 million as of June 30, 2024, which was above our targeted minimum liquidity buffer of 2x annual holding company expenses.

WEBSITE INFORMATION
Visit investors.jackson.com to view information regarding Jackson Financial Inc., including a supplement regarding the Second Quarter 2024 results. We routinely use our investor relations website as a primary channel for disclosing key information to our investors, some of which may contain material and previously non-public information. We may also use social media channels to communicate with our investors and the public about our Company and other matters, and those communications could be deemed to be material information.

APPENDIX
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to presenting our results of operations and financial condition in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use and report selected non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, together with relevant U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a better understanding of our results of operations, financial condition and the underlying performance drivers of our business. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the U.S. GAAP financial measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Consequently, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.
Adjusted Operating Earnings
Adjusted Operating Earnings is an after-tax non-GAAP financial measure, which we believe should be used to evaluate our financial performance on a consolidated basis by excluding certain items that may be highly variable from period to period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non-recurring in nature, as well as certain other revenues and expenses that we do not view as driving our underlying performance. Adjusted Operating Earnings should not be used as a substitute for net income as calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to net income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations.
For additional detail on the excluded items, please refer to the supplement regarding the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, posted on our website, https://investors.jackson.com.
The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted Operating Earnings to net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders, the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders
Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders excludes Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCI") attributable to Jackson Financial Inc ("JFI"), which does not include AOCI arising from investments held within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction. We exclude AOCI attributable to JFI from Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders because our invested assets are generally invested to closely match the duration of our liabilities, which are longer duration in nature, and therefore we believe period-to-period fair market value fluctuations in AOCI to be inconsistent with this objective. We believe excluding AOCI attributable to JFI is more useful to investors in analyzing trends in our business. Changes in AOCI within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction offset the related non-operating earnings from the Athene Reinsurance Transaction resulting in a minimal net impact on Adjusted Book Value of JFI.
