THIRD QUARTER NOTEWORTHY ITEMS

• General Insurance adjusted pre-tax income (APTI) of $750 million decreased $61 million from prior year quarter due to $228 million of lower alternative investment income partially offset by improvement in underwriting results with 2.4 points of combined ratio improvement, benefiting from continued underwriting discipline and a reinsurance program, which together decreased volatility and mitigated catastrophe losses (CATs), as well as a lower expense ratio.
• Life and Retirement APTI of $589 million reflects lower net investment income (NII) due to lower alternative investment returns and call and tender income, partially offset by higher base portfolio income and an improvement in mortality compared to prior year quarter. Life and Retirement return on adjusted segment common equity* (Adjusted ROCE) for the third quarter was 7.5% on an annualized basis.
• Net income attributable to AIG common shareholders was $2.7 billion, or $3.50 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $1.7 billion or $1.92 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter.
• Adjusted after-tax income attributable to AIG common shareholders was $509 million, or $0.66 per diluted common share, compared to $837 million, or $0.97 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter, due to lower net investment income, primarily alternative investment income.
• Return on common equity (ROCE) and Adjusted ROCE* were 25.9% and 3.7%, respectively, on an annualized basis for the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted ROCE was impacted by lower net investment income and catastrophe losses.

American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

AIG Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Peter Zaffino said: “AIG had another very strong quarter of financial performance, driven by our successful execution of strategic priorities, and highlighted by the initial public offering of Corebridge, another major accomplishment by our team, as well as continued profitable underwriting results and decreased volatility in General Insurance. These results are even more impressive when viewed against the backdrop of a challenging macro-economic environment and one of the largest insured-loss hurricanes in U.S. history.

“The Corebridge IPO was completed in mid-September and I am very pleased with the successful outcome, which represented a critical milestone for AIG and Corebridge that enables both companies to continue to drive growth and value as market leaders in their respective industries.

“General Insurance once again delivered outstanding improvement and absolute financial performance building on our momentum over the last few years. The 210-basis point improvement in the accident year combined ratio, ex-CATs* to 88.4%, marked the 17^th consecutive quarter of improvement. North America Commercial overall rate increased 9%, excluding Workers’ Compensation, in the third quarter and continued to exceed loss cost trends. I am extremely pleased with the overall underwriting profit in the quarter, particularly given $600 million of catastrophe losses, or 9.8 points of the combined ratio, of which approximately $450 million is attributable to Hurricane Ian. The strong performance in General Insurance demonstrates the benefits of the high-quality work we have done to transform our global portfolio and implement a best-in-class reinsurance program, which together have dramatically reduced volatility.

“Life and Retirement delivered another solid quarter with premiums and deposits of $8.9 billion, a 23% increase from the prior year quarter with growth in each of the four business segments. Sales in Individual Retirement grew by 16% to $3.8 billion, including a doubling of sales in fixed annuities and a record sales quarter in index annuities. Additionally, base net investment income from the fixed income portfolio started to see meaningful benefits from the higher interest rate environment.

“In the third quarter, we continued to progress and solidify our excellent partnerships with Blackstone, Inc. ("Blackstone") and BlackRock, Inc. ("BlackRock"). We have transferred $50 billion of Corebridge AUM to Blackstone and completed $100 billion of asset transfer to BlackRock with $37 billion moving from AIG and $63 billion moving from Corebridge.

“We also continued our disciplined and balanced approach to capital management. We returned $1.5 billion to shareholders through $1.3 billion of AIG common stock repurchases and $247 million of dividends. Corebridge issued hybrid debt of $1 billion and drew down $1.5 billion of the delayed draw term loan. Subsequent to the close of the quarter, AIG redeemed or repurchased approximately $1.8 billion in aggregate principal amount of debt. Additionally, shortly after the IPO, Corebridge declared its first quarterly dividend of $148 million as part of its $600 million annual dividend commitment, which has already been paid.

“I am extremely proud of all that has been accomplished by our dedicated colleagues at AIG and Corebridge. We remain well-positioned to continue to drive excellence, deliver improving returns and create long-term value to our shareholders and other stakeholders.”

For the third quarter of 2022, pre-tax income from continuing operations was $3.8 billion, up from $2.2 billion from the prior year quarter. Third quarter of 2022 net income attributable to AIG common shareholders was $2.7 billion, or $3.50 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $1.7 billion, or $1.92 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter. The pre-tax income increase was primarily due to an increase in net realized gains on derivative activities and higher underwriting income in General Insurance, reflecting the continued earn-in of positive rate change and strength of renewal retentions and new business production, favorable business mix changes, as well as increased favorable prior year development, partially offset by lower alternative investment income. The pre-tax income increase was partially offset by income attributable to noncontrolling interest associated with Blackstone’s 9.9% ownership interest and the additional 12.4% of public floating interest in Corebridge following the IPO.

AATI was $509 million, or $0.66 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $837 million, or $0.97 per diluted common share, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in AATI was primarily due to lower alternative investment income, and yield enhancement income, partially offset by a $148 million pre-tax increase in General Insurance underwriting results and improvement in core investment portfolio income across the business.

Total consolidated net investment income for the third quarter of 2022 was $2.7 billion, down 28% from $3.7 billion in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower alternative investment income, lower call and tender income and lower returns from fair value option equity securities. Interest and dividends income improved $59 million in the third quarter with yield across the fixed maturity and loan portfolios up 17 basis points sequentially. Total net investment income on an APTI basis* was $2.5 billion, a decrease of $741 million compared to the prior year quarter.

Book value per common share was $51.58 as of September 30, 2022, a decrease of 11% from June 30, 2022 and 36% from December 31, 2021, reflecting a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) as a result of higher interest rates. Adjusted book value per common share* was $73.28, an increase of 1% from June 30, 2022 and 6% from December 31, 2021, reflecting growth in retained earnings from net income in excess of dividends and share repurchases. Adjusted tangible book value per common share* was $67.04, an increase of 1% from June 30, 2022 and 7% from December 31, 2021.

For the third quarter of 2022, AIG repurchased approximately $1.3 billion of common stock or approximately 24 million shares and paid $247 million of common and preferred dividends, resulting in AIG Parent liquidity of $6.5 billion as of September 30, 2022. AIG’s ratio of total debt and preferred stock to total capital at September 30, 2022 was 36.5%, up from 31.1% at June 30, 2022, primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates on AOCI.

The AIG Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.32 per share on AIG common stock (NYSE: AIG). The dividend is payable on December 29, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 15, 2022.

The AIG Board of Directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $365.625 per share on AIG Series A 5.85% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, which is represented by depositary shares (NYSE: AIG PRA), each representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of preferred stock. Holders of depositary shares will receive $0.365625 per depositary share. The dividend is payable on December 15, 2022 to holders of record at the close of business on November 30, 2022.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

GENERAL INSURANCE

General Insurance

• Net premiums written in the third quarter of 2022 decreased 3% from the prior year quarter, but increased 3% on a constant dollar basis to $6.4 billion driven by strong North America Commercial Lines growth of 7% and International Commercial Lines decrease of 4% or growth of 5% on a constant dollar basis, reflecting continued positive rate change, higher renewal retentions and strong new business production. North America Personal Insurance net premiums written decreased 11% primarily due to a decline in Warranty and ongoing underwriting actions in our High-Net-Worth portfolio, offset by growth in Travel. International Personal Insurance net premiums written decreased 16%, or 2% on a constant dollar basis, primarily due to lower production in Warranty, partially offset by growth in Accident & Health (A&H) and Travel.
• Third quarter 2022 APTI decreased by $61 million to $750 million from the prior year quarter due to lower alternative investment income partially offset by improvement in underwriting income. Underwriting income was $168 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $20 million in the prior year quarter. The underwriting income included $600 million of CATs, before reinstatement premiums, of which approximately $450 million came from Hurricane Ian, compared to $628 million CATs, before reinstatement premiums in the prior year quarter. Third quarter 2022 also included favorable prior year loss reserve development, net of reinsurance (PYD) of $72 million compared to favorable PYD of $50 million in the prior year quarter.
• General Insurance generated strong underwriting results, with a combined ratio of 97.3%, a 2.4 point improvement from 99.7% in the prior year quarter. The loss ratio improved by 0.9 points, driven by strong underwriting results including comprehensive reinsurance programs that mitigated CAT exposure, and an improved expense ratio, benefiting from lower acquisition expense. The General Insurance accident year combined ratio, as adjusted*, was 88.4%, an improvement of 2.1 points from the prior year quarter with a 0.6 point improvement in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted* to 58.6%, and a 1.5 points improvement in the expense ratio to 29.8%. The improvement in accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, reflected continued improvement in commercial business mix and quality of the portfolio.
• Commercial Lines underwriting results continued to show strong improvement due to enhanced business mix, and net premiums written grew 2%, or 6% on a constant dollar basis, with continued rate increases. The accident year combined ratio, as adjusted, for North America Commercial Lines improved 5.9 points to 84.6%, and for International Commercial Lines improved 6.4 points to 80.4% compared to the prior year quarter.
• Personal Insurance underwriting results deteriorated as we reposition the business and continue to reduce exposures and increase reinsurance cessions to mitigate volatility. The North America Personal Insurance accident year combined ratio, as adjusted, deteriorated 14.4 points to 112.8% compared to the prior year quarter, due to higher reinsurance costs and lower ceding commission for High-Net-Worth business. The International Personal Insurance accident year combined ratio, as adjusted, deteriorated by 6.9 points to 99.9% from the prior year quarter, due to an increased frequency of A&H claims in Japan and Taiwan, partially mitigated by expense discipline.

LIFE AND RETIREMENT

Life and Retirement

• Life and Retirement reported APTI of $589 million for the third quarter of 2022, down 33% from $877 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to macroeconomic conditions resulting in lower net investment income and fee income, partially offset by less adverse mortality and an improved outcome in the annual actuarial assumption review. Capital markets volatility drove lower alternative investment returns and lower call and tender income in addition to lower fee income in Individual and Group Retirement. Higher new money rates continue to provide uplift to the base portfolio income and yield.
• Premiums and deposits were higher across all four operating segments; Life and Retirement achieved 23% growth from the prior year quarter largely as a result of robust index annuity deposits and strong fixed annuity deposits combined with transactional activity in Institutional Markets driving higher pension risk transfer and GIC deposits.
• The mortality experience in Life Insurance is in line with the previously disclosed estimate of exposure sensitivity of $65 million to $75 million per 100,000 population deaths based upon the reported third quarter COVID-related deaths in the United States.

OTHER OPERATIONS

Other Operations

• Before consolidation and eliminations, the adjusted pre-tax loss reflects lower investment income particularly within alternative investments. This was partially offset by lower corporate interest expense primarily driven by interest savings from debt repurchases and cash tender offers.

LIFE AND RETIREMENT SEPARATION

On September 19, 2022, AIG closed on the IPO of 80 million shares of Corebridge common stock at a public offering price of $21.00 per share, representing 12.4 percent of Corebridge's common stock. Corebridge is the holding company for AIG’s Life and Retirement business. The aggregate gross proceeds of the offering to AIG, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses payable by AIG, were approximately $1.7 billion.

In November 2021, AIG and Blackstone Inc. completed the acquisition by Blackstone of a 9.9 percent equity stake in Corebridge. Blackstone is required to hold its ownership interest in Corebridge following the completion of the separation of the Life and Retirement business, subject to exceptions permitting Blackstone to sell 25%, 67% and 75% of its shares after the first, second and third anniversaries, respectively, of Corebridge IPO (which will be September 19, 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively), with the transfer restrictions terminating in full on the fifth anniversary of the IPO (September 19, 2027). Also in November 2021, Corebridge declared a dividend payable to AIG Parent in the amount of $8.3 billion. In connection with such dividend, Corebridge issued a promissory note to AIG Parent in the amount of $8.3 billion (the Intercompany Note). The Intercompany Note was repaid to AIG Parent prior to the IPO of Corebridge with the proceeds of (i) the issuance by Corebridge, on April 5, 2022, of senior unsecured notes in the aggregate principal amount of $6.5 billion, (ii) the issuance by Corebridge, on August 23, 2022, of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2052, and (iii) borrowings by Corebridge of $1.5 billion under its $1.5 billion 3-Year Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement.

Following the IPO, AIG owns 77.7% of the outstanding common stock of Corebridge and continues to consolidate the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Corebridge in AIG’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The portion of equity interest of Corebridge that AIG does not own is reflected as noncontrolling interest in AIG’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

On December 15, 2021, AIG and Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (BREIT), a long-term, perpetual capital vehicle affiliated with Blackstone, completed the acquisition by BREIT of AIG’s interests in a U.S. affordable housing portfolio. The historical results of the U.S. affordable housing portfolio were reported in our Life and Retirement operating segments.

Additionally, on March 28, 2022, AIG and BlackRock entered into a binding letter of intent, and since April 2022, certain of AIG’s insurance company subsidiaries entered into separate investment management agreements with BlackRock, pursuant to which BlackRock will manage certain liquid fixed income and private placement assets representing up to $60 billion of assets on behalf of AIG and up to $90 billion of assets on behalf of Corebridge. In addition, AIG and Corebridge are gaining access to BlackRock’s world-class investment management technology, Aladdin.

COMMENT ON REGULATION G AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Throughout this press release, including the financial highlights, AIG presents its financial condition and results of operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful and representative of its business results. Some of the measurements AIG uses are “Non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. GAAP is the acronym for generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The non-GAAP financial measures AIG presents are listed below and may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies. The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in accordance with Regulation G are included within the relevant tables attached to this news release or in the Third Quarter 2022 Financial Supplement available in the Investors section of AIG’s website, www.aig.com.

Unless otherwise mentioned or unless the context indicates otherwise, we use the terms “AIG,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to American International Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.

AIG uses the following operating performance measures because AIG believes they enhance the understanding of the underlying profitability of continuing operations and trends of AIG’s business segments. AIG believes they also allow for more meaningful comparisons with AIG’s insurance competitors. When AIG uses these measures, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided on a consolidated basis.

Book Value per Common Share, Excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (AOCI) adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) (Adjusted Book Value per Common Share) is used to show the amount of our net worth on a per-common share basis after eliminating items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period including changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. This measure also eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets held by AIG in support of Fortitude Re’s reinsurance obligations to AIG post deconsolidation of Fortitude Re (Fortitude Re funds withheld assets) since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re. We exclude deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in these book value per common share metrics. Adjusted Book Value per Common Share is derived by dividing Total AIG common shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and DTA (Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity), by total common shares outstanding.

Book Value per Common Share, Excluding Goodwill, Value of Business Acquired (VOBA), Value of Distribution Channel Acquired (VODA), Other Intangible Assets, AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) (Adjusted Tangible Book Value per Common Share) is used to provide more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder on a per-common share basis. Adjusted Tangible Book Value per Common Share is derived by dividing Total AIG common shareholders’ equity, excluding intangible assets, AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets, and DTA (Adjusted Tangible Common Shareholders’ Equity), by total common shares outstanding.

AIG Return on Common Equity (ROCE) – Adjusted After-tax Income Excluding AOCI adjusted for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets and DTA (Adjusted return on common equity) is used to show the rate of return on common shareholders’ equity. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it eliminates items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. This measure also eliminates the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of our available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. In addition, we adjust for the cumulative unrealized gains and losses related to Fortitude Re funds withheld assets since these fair value movements are economically transferred to Fortitude Re. We exclude deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in Adjusted Return on Common Equity. Adjusted Return on Common Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized adjusted after-tax income attributable to AIG common shareholders by average Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity.

General Insurance and Life and Retirement Adjusted Segment Common Equity is based on segment equity adjusted for the attribution of debt and preferred stock (Segment Common Equity) and is consistent with AIG’s Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity definition.

General Insurance and Life and Retirement Return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity – Adjusted After-tax Income (Return on adjusted segment common equity) is used to show the rate of return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity. Return on Adjusted Segment Common Equity is derived by dividing actual or annualized Adjusted After-tax Income by Average Adjusted Segment Common Equity.

Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to General Insurance and Life and Retirement is derived by subtracting attributed interest expense, income tax expense and attributed dividends on preferred stock from APTI. Attributed debt and the related interest expense and dividends on preferred stock are calculated based on our internal allocation model. Tax expense or benefit is calculated based on an internal attribution methodology that considers among other things the taxing jurisdiction in which the segments conduct business, as well as the deductibility of expenses in those jurisdictions.

Adjusted Revenues exclude Net realized gains (losses), income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes) and changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits (included in Net investment income for GAAP purposes). Adjusted revenues is a GAAP measure for our segments.

Adjusted Pre-tax Income (APTI) is derived by excluding the items set forth below from income from continuing operations before income tax. This definition is consistent across our segments. These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and measures that we believe to be common to the industry. APTI is a GAAP measure for our segments. Excluded items include the following:

Adjusted After-tax Income attributable to AIG common shareholders (AATI) is derived by excluding the tax effected APTI adjustments described above, dividends on preferred stock, noncontrolling interest on net realized gains (losses), other non-operating expenses and the following tax items from net income attributable to AIG:

• deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges;
• changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax items related to legacy matters having no relevance to our current businesses or operating performance; and
• net tax charge related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act).

See page 16 for the reconciliation of Net income attributable to AIG to Adjusted After-tax Income Attributable to AIG.

Ratios: We, along with most property and casualty insurance companies, use the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned, the amount of losses and loss adjustment expenses (which for General Insurance excludes net loss reserve discount), and the amount of other underwriting expenses that would be incurred. A combined ratio of less than 100 indicates underwriting income and a combined ratio of over 100 indicates an underwriting loss. Our ratios are calculated using the relevant segment information calculated under GAAP, and thus may not be comparable to similar ratios calculated for regulatory reporting purposes. The underwriting environment varies across countries and products, as does the degree of litigation activity, all of which affect such ratios. In addition, investment returns, local taxes, cost of capital, regulation, product type and competition can have an effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting income and associated ratios.

Accident year loss and Accident year combined ratios, as adjusted (Accident year loss ratio, ex-CAT and Accident year combined ratio, ex-CAT): both the accident year loss and accident year combined ratios, as adjusted, exclude catastrophe losses (CATs) and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting. Natural catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events, in each case, having a net impact on AIG in excess of $10 million and man-made catastrophe losses, such as terrorism and civil disorders that exceed the $10 million threshold. We believe that as adjusted ratios are meaningful measures of our underwriting results on an ongoing basis as they exclude catastrophes and the impact of reserve discounting which are outside of management’s control. We also exclude prior year development to provide transparency related to current accident year results.

Underwriting ratios are computed as follows:

1. Loss ratio = Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred ÷ Net premiums earned (NPE)
2. Acquisition ratio = Total acquisition expenses ÷ NPE
3. General operating expense ratio = General operating expenses ÷ NPE
4. Expense ratio = Acquisition ratio + General operating expense ratio
5. Combined ratio = Loss ratio + Expense ratio
6. CATs and reinstatement premiums = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – (CATs)] ÷ [NPE +/(-) Reinstatement premiums related to catastrophes] – Loss ratio
7. Accident year loss ratio, as adjusted (AYLR ex-CAT) = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – CATs – PYD] ÷ [NPE +/(-) Reinstatement premiums related to catastrophes +/(-) Prior year premiums + Adjustment for ceded premium under reinsurance contracts related to prior accident years]
8. Accident year combined ratio, as adjusted (AYCR ex-CAT) = AYLR ex-CAT + Expense ratio
9. Prior year development net of reinsurance and prior year premiums = [Loss and loss adjustment expenses incurred – CATs – PYD] ÷ [NPE +/(-) Reinstatement premiums related to catastrophes +/(-) Prior year premiums] – Loss ratio – CATs and reinstatement premiums ratio.

Premiums and deposits: includes direct and assumed amounts received and earned on traditional life insurance policies, group benefit policies and life‑contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life, investment‑type annuity contracts, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) funding agreements and mutual funds. We believe the measure of premiums and deposits is useful in understanding customer demand for our products, evolving product trends and our sales performance period over period.

Results from discontinued operations are excluded from all of these measures.
