(*)
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the three months ended March 31, 2015 includes the impact of the $162 million pretax realized loss recorded on the pending sale of AFG's run-off long-term care business. Excluding this realized loss on subsidiaries, this ratio was 1.91 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Although the ratio excluding this realized loss on subsidiaries is not required or encouraged to be disclosed under Securities and Exchange Commission rules, it is presented to explain the decrease in this ratio between periods.
