F&G
F&G, a leading provider of annuities and life insurance, reported operating results for the second quarter of 2021. As a result of acquisition accounting (purchase accounting or PGAAP), financial results for periods after June 1, 2020 are generally not comparable to the results of prior periods. Certain metrics, such as sales and policyholder account values, are not affected by PGAAP and are comparable to prior period data.
•Total Retail Annuity Sales of $1.6 billion in the second quarter, an increase of 80% to the prior year, and an increase of 9% over the sequential quarter
•Fixed Indexed Annuities (FIA) Sales of $1.1 billion in the second quarter, an increase of 31% to the prior year, and an increase of 8% over the sequential quarter
•F&G entered the Institutional market with a $750 million funding agreement-backed note issuance on June 29, 2021, and has secured its first pension risk transfer transaction which represents pension obligations of approximately $65 million and is expected to close in August 2021
•Average Assets Under Management (AAUM) of $30.4 billion for the second quarter, up from $29.0 billion in the sequential period driven by net new business asset flows
•Net Investment Spread: FIA spread for the second quarter of 335 basis points; Total Spread, including all product lines, for the second quarter of 295 basis points
•Net Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders of $82 million for the second quarter, including a $6 million gain from discontinued operations and $16 million net favorable mark-to-market and other items which are excluded from Adjusted Net Earnings
•Adjusted Net Earnings From Continuing Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders of $92 million for the second quarter, including $22 million of net favorable notable items
William P. Foley, II, Chairman, commented, “I am very pleased with our second quarter results as we continue to set records in our Title business and in F&G's sales results, further validating our decision to acquire the company just over one year ago. We are building a company that has a financial model designed to deliver earnings and cash flow through changing market environments. One year in, we can already see the early signs of our success and I would like to thank all of our employees for their hard work and dedication for without their efforts this would not be possible.
Looking at our Title results, we generated record adjusted pre-tax title earnings of $688 million and an adjusted pre-tax title margin of 22.7%, compared to adjusted pre-tax title earnings of $378 million and an adjusted pretax title margin of 18.4% in the 2020 comparable quarter. Our second quarter margins matched our record margins from the fourth quarter of 2020 and were driven, in part, by our investments in technology, operations and automation over the years as we have worked to improve our efficiency across all facets of our Title business as we strive to continuously improve our profitability. Total commercial revenues reached record levels of $347 million for the quarter, compared to $184 million in the second quarter of 2020, as total commercial orders closed increased 65%, as compared to the year ago quarter.
Turning to F&G, we continue to make great progress on our diversified growth strategy. During the second quarter we entered the Institutional market with a $750 million funding agreement-backed note issuance and, just last week, secured our first pension risk transfer deal. In addition, sustained momentum in the bank and broker dealer distribution channels, launched following the 2020 acquisition, have propelled retail sales to record levels in the quarter, while still maintaining attractive spreads. These new markets have advanced us as a well-diversified player in the retail and institutional spaces, all while leveraging our existing core capabilities."
Mr. Foley concluded, "Our capital allocation strategy remains a key focus of the Board. Our disciplined strategy is focused on returning capital to shareholders, while making necessary investments in our businesses to drive growth. We recently announced our third quarter dividend of $0.40 per share, an increase of 11% from our previous quarterly dividend, and have continued to make share repurchases throughout the second quarter, executing against our $500 million share repurchase plan. During the quarter we purchased 4 million shares at an average purchase price of $43.36 per share.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, FNF has provided non-GAAP financial measures, which it believes are useful to help investors better understand its financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax title earnings, adjusted pre-tax title earnings as a percentage of adjusted title revenue (adjusted pre-tax title margin), F&G adjusted earnings, F&G adjusted earnings attributable to common shareholders, F&G adjusted operating return on common shareholders’ equity excluding AOCI, F&G net investment spread, F&G average assets under management and F&G sales.
Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings. Further, FNF's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to related GAAP measures are provided below.
Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: the ability of FNF to successfully integrate F&G's operations and employees; the potential impact of the consummation of the F&G transaction on relationships, including with employees, suppliers, customers and competitors; changes in general economic, business, political and COVID-19 conditions, including changes in the financial markets; weakness or adverse changes in the level of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage funding or a weak U. S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates; our dependence on distributions from our title insurance underwriters as a main source of cash flow; significant competition that F&G and our operating subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries; and other risks detailed in the “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of FNF's Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

DEFINITIONS
The following represents the definitions of non-GAAP measures used by F&G.
Adjusted Earnings
Adjusted Earnings is a non-GAAP economic measure we use to evaluate financial performance each period. Adjusted earnings is calculated by adjusting net earnings (loss) from continuing operations to eliminate:
(i) Recognized (gains) and losses, net: the impact of net investment gains/losses, including changes in allowance for expected credit losses and other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") losses, recognized in operations; the impact of market volatility on the alternative asset portfolio; and the effect of changes in fair value of the reinsurance related embedded derivative;
(ii) Indexed product related derivatives: the impacts related to changes in the fair value, including both realized and unrealized gains and losses, of index product related derivatives and embedded derivatives, net of hedging cost, and the fair value accounting impact of assumed reinsurance,
(iii) Purchase price amortization: the impacts related to the amortization of certain intangibles (internally developed software, trademarks and value of distribution asset (VODA)) recognized as a result of acquisition activities, and
(iv) Transaction costs: the impacts related to acquisition, integration and merger related items.
Adjustments to Adjusted Earnings are net of the corresponding impact on amortization of intangibles, as appropriate. The income tax impact related to these adjustments is measured using an effective tax rate, as appropriate by tax jurisdiction. While these adjustments are an integral part of the overall performance of F&G, market conditions and/or the non-operating nature of these items can overshadow the underlying performance of the core business. Accordingly, management considers this to be a useful measure internally and to investors and analysts in analyzing the trends of our operations.
Adjusted Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders
Adjusted Earnings attributable to common shareholders is a non-GAAP economic measure we use to evaluate financial performance attributable to our common shareholders each period. Adjusted Earnings attributable to common shareholders is calculated by adjusting net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders to eliminate the same items as described in the Adjusted Earnings paragraph above. While these adjustments are an integral part of the overall performance of the Company, market conditions and/or the non-operating nature of these items can overshadow the underlying performance of the core business. Accordingly, Management considers this to be a useful measure internally and to investors and analysts in analyzing the trends of our operations.
Net Investment Spread
Net investment spread is the excess of net investment income, adjusted for market volatility on the alternative asset investment portfolio, earned over the sum of interest credited to policyholders and the cost of hedging our risk on indexed product policies. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the performance of the Company’s invested assets against the level of investment return provided to policyholders, inclusive of hedging costs.
Average Assets Under Management (AAUM)
AAUM is calculated as the sum of:
(i) total invested assets at amortized cost, excluding derivatives;
(ii) related party loans and investments;
(iii) accrued investment income;
(iv) funds withheld at fair value;
(v) the net payable/receivable for the purchase/sale of investments, and
(iv) cash and cash equivalents, excluding derivative collateral, at the beginning of the period and the end of each month in the period, divided by the total number of months in the period plus one.
Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on assets available for reinvestment.
15
Sales (FIA Sales and Total Retail Annuity Sales)
Sales are not derived from any specific GAAP income statement accounts or line items and should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Annuity and IUL sales are recorded as deposit liabilities (i.e. contractholder funds) within the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that presentation of sales, as measured for management purposes, enhances the understanding of our business and helps depict longer term trends that may not be apparent in the results of operations due to the timing of sales and revenue recognition.
