Consolidated Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results
Fourth Quarter 2025
The Company reported net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders of $(215) million, or $(3.13) per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $334 million, or $4.45 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The current quarter net income reflected a $12 million loss from business reinsured to third parties, while the prior year reported a gain of $347 million. The current year also included a less favorable net hedging result versus the prior year’s fourth quarter. The results of reinsured business can differ significantly from 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 adjusted operating earnings exclude, among other things, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and market risk benefits tied to market movements.
For the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, please see the explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in the Appendix to this release.
Adjusted operating earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2025, were $455 million, or $6.61 per diluted share, compared to $349 million or $4.65 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The current quarter per share amount benefited from higher spread income from growth in average RILA and Institutional AUM, a comparatively favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update, and a reduced share count due to repurchases.
Full Year 2025
The Company reported net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders of $(17) million, or $(0.24) per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $902 million, or $11.74 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2024. The current year net income reflected a $449 million loss from business reinsured to third parties, while the prior year included a loss on that business of $28 million. The current year also included a less favorable net hedging result compared to the prior year.
Adjusted operating earnings for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $1.6 billion, or $22.67 per diluted share, compared to $1.4 billion or $18.79 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2024. The current year per share amount benefited from higher spread income from growth in average RILA and Institutional AUM, a comparatively favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update, and a reduced share count due to repurchases.
Total common shareholders’ equity was $9.4 billion or $138.17 per diluted share as of December 31, 2025, compared to $9.2 billion or $124.21 per diluted share as of December 31, 2024. Adjusted book value attributed to common shareholders was $10.6 billion or $155.78 per diluted share as of December 31, 2025, compared to $11.2 billion or $150.11 per diluted share as of December 31, 2024. The per share increase was driven primarily by a reduction in the diluted share count due to common share repurchases and year-to-date adjusted operating earnings of $1.6 billion. This was partially offset by capital return to shareholders during 2025. Return on equity attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025 was (0.2)%. Adjusted operating return on equity attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025, was 14.7%, up from 12.9% in the prior year.

income resulting from growth in average RILA AUM, partially offset by a less favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update.
Full year 2025 pretax adjusted operating earnings were $1.9 billion, broadly unchanged from full year 2024. The current year results primarily reflect higher spread income resulting from growth in average RILA AUM, mostly offset by higher other policyholder benefits expense and a less favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update.
Total retail annuity sales of $5.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025 were up from $4.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. Traditional variable annuity sales of $2.8 billion in the current quarter were up slightly from the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting higher sales of products without lifetime benefits. Record RILA sales of $2.3 billion in the current quarter were up from $1.5 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. Fixed and fixed index annuity sales in the current quarter of $812 million were up from $397 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
For the full year 2025, total retail annuity sales of $19.7 billion were up from $17.8 billion in the full year 2024. Traditional variable annuity sales of $10.9 billion in 2025 were up from $10.6 billion in 2024, reflecting higher sales of products without lifetime benefits.

Institutional Products
Institutional Products reported pretax adjusted operating earnings of $24 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $19 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, driven by higher spread income. Net flows were $(109) million at the end of the current quarter, and total account value of $11.0 billion at the end of 2025 was up from $8.4 billion at the end of 2024.
For the full year 2025, pretax adjusted operating earnings were $92 million, relatively flat compared to $96 million in the full year 2024. Net flows were $1.5 billion in the full year 2025. Sales results underscore our continued ability to capitalize on robust demand for spread lending, demonstrating the effectiveness of our opportunistic sales strategy and our strong market positioning.
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks
Closed Life and Annuity Blocks reported pretax adjusted operating income (loss) of $5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $(70) million in the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting a comparatively favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update.
For the full year 2025, the segment reported pretax adjusted operating income (loss) of $70 million, compared to $(9) million in the full year of 2024, reflecting higher spread income and a comparatively favorable impact from the annual actuarial assumptions update. Net flows were $(69) million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $(277) million in the full year 2025.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other reported a pretax adjusted operating (loss) of $(32) million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $(57) million in the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher net investment income and lower general and administrative expense.
For the full year 2025, the pretax adjusted operating income (loss) was $(143) million, compared to $(264) million in full year 2024, primarily due to lower general and administrative expense, higher net investment income, and a one-time reinsurance related adjustment in 2024.
Excludes certain internal exchanges
Corporate and Other also includes the results of PPM, which has experienced a 26% growth in AUM from the fourth quarter of 2024. AUM as of December 31, 2025 was $93.7 billion, up from $74.4 billion as of December 31, 2024, driven by growth in both Jackson’s general account and third-party AUM.
Capitalization and Liquidity
| (Unaudited, in billions) | December 31, 2025 | September 30, 2025 |
| Statutory Total Adjusted Capital (TAC) Jackson National Life Insurance Company | $5.5 | $5.6 |
Statutory TAC at JNL was $5.5 billion as of December 31, 2025, compared to $5.6 billion as of September 30, 2025. TAC was supported by strong earnings on in-force business, partially offset by a $300 million distribution to JNL’s parent during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the related reduction in deferred tax asset admissibility. JNL’s RBC ratio was 567% as of December 31, 2025, down from the third quarter of 2025 due to the reduction in TAC. Holding company free cash flow totaled $119 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $838 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2025, reflecting more than $1.1 billion of distributions from the operating company.
Cash and highly liquid securities at the holding company totaled over $650 million as of December 31, 2025, which was above our targeted minimum liquidity buffer of $250 million.

We routinely use our investor relations website as a primary channel for disclosing key information to our investors. We may use our website as a means of disclosing material, non-public information and for complying with our disclosure obligations. Accordingly, investors should monitor our investor relations website, in addition to following our press releases, filings with the SEC, public conference calls, presentations, and webcasts. 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. The information contained on, or that may be accessed through, our website, our social media channels, or our executives’ social media channels is not incorporated by reference into and is not part of this release.
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.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is Jackson Financial Inc. (Parent Company only) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less preferred stock dividends and capital contributions to PPM or other subsidiaries, plus the return of capital from subsidiaries. Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for JFI’s (Parent Company only) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe these adjustments are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall available cash flow at JFI for return of capital to common shareholders and other corporate initiatives.
For additional detail on the non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the supplement regarding the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025, posted on our website, https://investors.jackson.com.

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 because it removes those short-term fluctuations. 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 the Adjusted Book Value of JFI.
