From Nov 2024 to Dec 2024
Jackson Financial Inc. (NYSE: JXN) (Jackson®) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Third quarter 2024 results reflect strong growth in sales, earnings, capital generation and capital return
Laura Prieskorn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jackson, stated, “Jackson’s third quarter results highlight our distribution strength and our continued focus and commitment to offering differentiated and innovative products while generating value for our shareholders. Our retail annuity sales were up 59% from the third quarter of 2023 with growth across every product line, delivering our largest and most diversified quarter of sales since becoming an independent company. Consistent with our move to smaller, periodic operating company distributions, Jackson National Life distributed $300 million to its parent company during the third quarter while increasing our statutory capital and our RBC ratio. We returned $167 million to our common shareholders during the third quarter, bringing our year-to-date total to $483 million and positioning us well to achieve our full year 2024 target of $550-650 million. Furthermore, we continue to hold more than $1 billion in excess capital above our targeted minimum RBC ratio of 425%, and we increased our cash at the holding company to nearly $650 million. We anticipate building on this momentum through the remainder of 2024 and into 2025 and continuing to deliver on our mission of helping Americans achieve financial freedom for life.”
Consolidated Third Quarter 2024 Results
The Company reported net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders of $(480) million, or $(6.37) per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $2.8 billion, or $33.35 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The current period net loss reflected a $(515) million impact from business reinsured to third parties, while the prior year’s third quarter included a gain of $462 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). The current period net loss also reflected an unfavorable net hedging result compared to the prior year’s third quarter primarily driven by differences in market risk benefits movements. Rising interest rates during the prior year’s third quarter resulted in a market risk benefits gain, while declining interest rates in the current period resulted in a market risk benefits loss. 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 September 30, 2024, were $350 million, or $4.60 per diluted share, compared to $315 million or $3.80 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The current quarter adjusted operating earnings benefited from increased fee income resulting from higher average variable annuity AUM, improved spread income, 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 $10.2 billion or $135.35 per diluted share as of September 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 $11.2 billion or $149.29 per diluted share as of September 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 $1.1 billion partially offset by non-operating, net hedging losses that included deferred acquisition cost (DAC) amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Retail Annuities
Retail Annuities reported pretax adjusted operating earnings of $458 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $354 million in the third 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 $5.3 billion in the third quarter of 2024 were up from $3.3 billion in the third quarter of 2023, with every annuity category showing growth. Traditional variable annuity sales of $2.6 billion in the current quarter were up from $2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2023. Jackson’s RILA, Market Link Pro, again set a new record in the current quarter, with sales of $1.6 billion, up from $0.8 billion in the third quarter of 2023. Strong fixed annuity growth drove our fixed and fixed indexed annuity sales in the current quarter to $1 billion, up from $76 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Institutional Products
Institutional Products reported pretax adjusted operating earnings of $17 million in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $21 million in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease from the prior year’s third quarter was due to lower spread income reflecting lower average account value. Net flows were $499 million in the current quarter, and total account value of $7.9 billion was down from $8.7 billion in the third quarter of 2023.
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks reported pretax adjusted operating income of $7 million in the third quarter of 2024, broadly unchanged from $6 million in the third quarter of 2023.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other reported a pretax adjusted operating loss of $(71) million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to a loss of $(26) million in the third quarter of 2023. The decline was primarily due to higher market-related costs and other operating expenses.

Jackson National Life Insurance Company
Statutory TAC at JNLIC was $4.8 billion as of September 30, 2024, up from $4.7 billion as of June 30, 2024. TAC was supported by strong base contract cash flows as well as a Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT) benefit. This was partially offset by a $300 million distribution to JNLIC’s parent during the third quarter and the related reduction in deferred tax asset admissibility. JNLIC’s estimated RBC ratio as of September 30, 2024 was up slightly from June 30, 2024 and in a range of 550-570% as higher TAC was only partially offset by a modest increase in estimated company action level (CAL) required capital.
Cash and highly liquid securities at the holding company totaled nearly $650 million as of September 30, 2024, which was above our targeted minimum liquidity buffer of 2x annual holding company expenses.

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 and certain of our senior executives 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 third quarter ended September 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.
