Notes
Non-GAAP Performance Measures
Non-GAAP measures do not replace the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and we have included detailed reconciliations herein beginning on page 26.
In the third quarter of 2024, we revised our definition of adjusted income (loss) from operations to exclude the impact of certain items that are not indicative of the ongoing operations of
the business and may obscure trends in the underlying performance of the Company. The revised definition now excludes, as applicable, certain legal accruals, severance expense related to initiatives
that realign the workforce, the mark-to-market adjustment related to the LNC stock component of our deferred compensation plans, impacts from the settlement or curtailment of
defined benefit obligations and the effect of tax adjustments such as changes to deferred tax valuation allowances from the definition of adjusted income (loss) from operations.
The presentation of prior period adjusted income (loss) from operations has been recast to conform to the current period presentation.
Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations
Adjusted income (loss) from operations is GAAP net income excluding the effects of the following items, as applicable:
• Items related to annuity product features, which include changes in market risk benefits (“MRBs”), including gains and losses and benefit payments (“MRB-related impacts”), changes in the fair
value of the derivative instruments we hold to hedge guaranteed living benefit (“GLB”) and guaranteed death benefit (“GDB”) riders, net of fee income allocated to support the cost of hedging them,
and changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities of our indexed annuity contracts and the associated index options we hold to hedge them, including collateral expense associated with
the hedge program (collectively, “net annuity product features”);
• Items related to life insurance product features, which include changes in the fair value of derivatives we hold as part of variable universal life insurance (“VUL”) hedging, changes in reserves resulting
from benefit ratio unlocking associated with the impact of capital markets, and changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities of our indexed universal life insurance (“IUL”) contracts
and the associated index options we hold to hedge them (collectively, “net life insurance product features”);
• Credit loss-related adjustments on fixed maturity available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities, mortgage loans on real estate and reinsurance-related assets (“credit loss-related adjustments”);
• Changes in the fair value of equity securities, certain derivatives, certain other investments and realized gains (losses) on sales, disposals and impairments of financial assets (collectively, “investment
gains (losses)”);
• Changes in the fair value of reinsurance-related embedded derivatives, trading securities and mortgage loans on real estate electing the fair value option (“changes in the fair value of reinsurance-related
embedded derivatives, trading securities and certain mortgage loans”);
• Income (loss) from the initial adoption of new accounting standards, accounting policy changes and new regulations, including changes in tax law;
• Income (loss) from reserve changes, net of related amortization, on business sold through reinsurance;
• Losses from the impairment of intangible assets and gains (losses) on other non-financial assets;
• Income (loss) from discontinued operations.
• Other items, which include the following: certain legal accruals; severance expense related to initiatives that realign the workforce; transaction and integration costs related to mergers and
acquisitions including the acquisition or divestiture, through reinsurance or other means, of businesses or blocks of business; mark-to-market adjustment related to the LNC stock component of our
deferred compensation plans (“deferred compensation mark-to-market adjustment”); gain (losses) on modification or early extinguishment of debt; and impacts from settlement or curtailment of
defined benefit obligations; and
• Income tax benefit (expense) related to the above pre-tax items, including the effect of tax adjustments such as changes to deferred tax valuation allowances.
Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders is defined as after-tax adjusted income (loss) from operations less preferred stock dividends.
Adjusted Operating Revenues
Adjusted operating revenues represent GAAP revenues excluding the effects of the following items, as applicable:
• Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments we hold to hedge GLB and GDB riders, net of fee income allocated to support the cost of hedging them, and changes in the fair value of the
embedded derivative liabilities of our indexed annuity and indexed universal life insurance contracts and the associated index options we hold to hedge them (“revenue adjustments from annuity and
life insurance product features”);
• Credit loss-related adjustments;
• Investment gains (losses);
• Changes in the fair value of reinsurance-related embedded derivatives, trading securities and certain mortgage loans;
• Revenue adjustments from the initial adoption of new accounting standards;

Notes
Non-GAAP Performance Measures, Continued
(continued from the previous page)
• Amortization of deferred gains arising from reserve changes on business sold through reinsurance; and
• Gains (losses) on other non-financial assets.
Management believes that the non-GAAP performance measures discussed above explain the results of our ongoing businesses in a manner that allows for a better understanding of the underlying trends
in our current business as the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business segments, and, in many instances,
decisions regarding these items do not necessarily relate to the operations of the individual segments. In addition, we believe that our definitions of adjusted operating revenues and adjusted income (loss)
from operations provide investors with more valuable measures of our performance as they better reveal trends in our business.
Stockholders’ Equity, Excluding AOCI and Preferred Stock
Stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock is stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock. Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates market
movements that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in interest rates. Stockholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Adjusted Stockholders’ Equity
Adjusted stockholders’ equity is stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, preferred stock, MRB-related impacts, GLB and GDB hedged instruments gains (losses) and the difference between
amounts recognized in net income (loss) on reinsurance-related embedded derivatives and the underlying asset portfolios (“reinsurance-related embedded derivatives and portfolio gains (losses)”).
Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to
changes in equity markets and interest rates. Stockholders’ equity is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Book Value per Share, Excluding AOCI
Book value per share, excluding AOCI, is calculated by dividing stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock, by common shares outstanding. We provide book value per share, excluding AOCI, to
enable investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. Management believes book value per share, excluding AOCI, is useful to investors because it
eliminates the effect of items that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP
measure.
Adjusted Book Value per Share
Adjusted book value per share is calculated by dividing adjusted stockholders’ equity by common shares outstanding. We provide adjusted book value per share to enable investors to analyze the amount
of our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. Management believes adjusted book value per share is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that are
unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in equity markets and interest rates. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations Available to Common Stockholders, Excluding AOCI and Preferred Stock ROE
Adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available
to common stockholders by average stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and preferred stock. Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements
on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily related to changes in interest rates. Net income (loss) ROE is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Adjusted Income (Loss) From Operations ROE
Adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders by adjusted average stockholders’ equity.
Management believes this metric is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of market movements on ROE that are unpredictable and can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily
related to changes in equity markets and interest rates. Net income (loss) ROE is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Management believes that the non-GAAP measures discussed above allow for a better understanding of the underlying trends in our current business as the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily
indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business.

Notes
Computations
• The quarterly financial information for the current year may not sum to the corresponding year-to-date amount as both are rounded to millions.
• The financial ratios reported herein are calculated using whole dollars instead of dollars rounded to millions.
• We exclude deferred units of LNC stock that are antidilutive from our diluted net income (loss) earnings per share calculation. In addition, for any period where a net loss or adjusted loss from operations
   is experienced, shares used in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares, as the use of diluted shares would result in a lower loss per share.
Definitions
Holding company available liquidity consists of cash and invested cash, excluding cash held as collateral, and certain short-term investments that can be readily converted into cash, net of commercial paper
outstanding.
Return on equity (“ROE”) measures how efficiently we generate profits from the resources provided by our net assets. See adjusted income (loss) from operations ROE and adjusted income (loss) from
operations available to common stockholders, excluding AOCI and preferred stock ROE metrics on page 2 for further information on how these metrics are calculated. Management evaluates consolidated
ROE by both including and excluding the effect of average goodwill.
Leverage ratio is a measure that we use to monitor the level of our debt relative to our total capitalization. Debt used in this metric reflects total debt and preferred stock adjusted for certain items.
Total capitalization reflects debt used in the numerator of this ratio and stockholders' equity adjusted for certain items.
Indexed variable annuities are referred to as registered index-linked annuities (“RILA”).
Sales as reported consist of the following:
• Annuities and Retirement Plan Services – deposits from new and existing customers;
• Universal life insurance (“UL”), IUL, VUL – first-year commissionable premiums plus 5% of excess premiums received;
MoneyGuard® linked-benefit products – MoneyGuard® (UL), 15% of total expected premium deposits, and MoneyGuard Market AdvantageSM (VUL), 150% of commissionable premiums;
• Executive Benefits – insurance and corporate-owned UL and VUL, first-year commissionable premiums plus 5% of excess premium received, and single premium bank-owned UL and VUL, 15% of
single premium deposits;
• Term – 100% of annualized first-year premiums; and
• Group Protection – annualized first-year premiums from new policies.

 of diluted shares would result in a lower loss per share. Due to reporting adjusted income (loss) from operations per common share on a different share basis than net income (loss)
 per common share, we have included an adjustment to reconcile the two metrics.

(1) This measure has been updated, effective beginning with the fourth quarter of 2023, to exclude reinsurance-related embedded derivatives and the underlying portfolio
 gains (losses), given the size of the impact of the fourth quarter 2023 reinsurance transaction. Such amounts in the prior periods presented, and the impact of this change to
 such prior periods, were not meaningful (“NM”).
