Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements

A summary of revisions to the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021; and the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income and changes in equity, in each case, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is presented in Note 17. The Company will also correct previously reported financial information for such errors in its future filings, as applicable.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting: In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued.
The relief is applicable only to legacy contracts if the amendments made to the agreements are solely for reference rate reform activities. The provisions must be applied consistently for all relevant transactions other than derivatives, which may be applied at a hedging relationship level. The guidance is effective upon issuance. The guidance on contract modifications is applied prospectively from any date beginning March 12, 2020. Unlike other topics, the provisions of this update are only available until December 31, 2022, when the reference rate replacement activity is expected to have been completed.
This standard is effective as of January 1, 2022, but has no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company currently has no contracts or hedging relationships for which the reference LIBOR or another rate is expected to be discontinued and a GAAP contract modification is required.
Improvements to Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity: In August 2020, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The guidance removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more contracts in an entity’s own equity to qualify for it. The guidance also simplifies the diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculation in the areas of convertible instruments and instruments that qualify for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to address accounting for the guidance changes to the classification, recognition and measurement.
This standard is effective as of January 1, 2022, but has no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company currently has no convertible instruments or contracts in its own equity.
Not Yet Adopted
Targeted improvements to the accounting for long-duration contracts: In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance that provides targeted improvements to the accounting for long-duration contracts. The guidance includes the following primary changes: assumptions supporting benefit reserves will no longer be locked-in but must be updated at least annually with the
Assurant, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(in millions, except number of shares and per share amounts)
impact of changes to the liability reflected in earnings (except for discount rates); the discount rate assumptions will be based on the upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed-income instrument yield instead of the earnings rate of invested assets; the discount rate must be evaluated at each reporting date and the impact of changes to the liability estimate as a result of updating the discount rate assumption is required to be recognized in other comprehensive income; the provision for adverse deviation is eliminated; and premium deficiency testing is eliminated. Other noteworthy changes include the following: differing models for amortizing deferred acquisition costs will become uniform for all long-duration contracts based on a constant rate over the expected term of the related in-force contracts; all market risk benefits associated with deposit contracts must be reported at fair value with changes reflected in income except for changes related to credit risk which will be recognized in other comprehensive income; and disclosures will be expanded to include disaggregated roll forwards of the liability for future policy benefits, policyholder account balances, market risk benefits, separate account liabilities, and deferred acquisition costs, as well as information about significant inputs, judgments, assumptions and methods used in measurement.
The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Generally, the amendments are applied retrospectively as of the beginning of the earliest period presented with two transition options available for changing the assumptions. With the sale of the disposed Global Preneed business in August 2021, the adoption of this standard is expected to have no material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Recognition and Measurement of Revenue Contracts with Customers Acquired in a Business Combination: In October 2021, the FASB issued guidance to improve comparability after a business combination is reported in the acquirer’s financial statements by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. Generally, the acquirer will recognize the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree. Historically, such amounts were recognized by the acquirer at fair value in the acquisition accounting. Under the amended guidance, the acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts as if it had originated the contracts. The amendments provide certain practical expedients for acquirers when recognizing and measuring acquired contract assets and contract liabilities from revenue contracts in a business combination.
The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption of the amendment is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. An entity that early adopts in an interim period should apply the amendments (1) retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application and (2) prospectively to all business combinations that occur on or after the date of initial application. The adoption of this standard is expected to have no material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions: In June 2022, the FASB issued guidance on investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to contractual restrictions preventing the sale of those securities. The amendments clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. Disclosures will be required to provide investors with information about the restriction including the fair value of the equity securities subject to any contractual sale restrictions reflected in the balance sheet, the nature and remaining duration of such restrictions, and any circumstances that could cause a lapse in such restrictions.
The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company plans to early adopt the standard if it invests in equity securities that have contractual restrictions preventing the sale of those securities prior to the effective date.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022: In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act (the “IRA”) which makes changes to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including the imposition of (1) a new corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) based on applicable financial statement income and (2) a 1% excise tax on corporate stock repurchases. The effective date of the IRA is January 1, 2023. After initial analysis of the IRA, the Company does not expect a material impact to the financial statements in 2022. The Company is undergoing further analysis to determine if the CAMT will apply to the financial statements in 2023 and future years. Additionally, any excise tax incurred on corporate stock repurchases is expected to be recognized as part of the cost basis of the treasury stock acquired and not reported as part of income tax expense.

Sale of John Alden Life Insurance Company
On April 1, 2022, the Company completed its sale of John Alden Life Insurance Company (“JALIC”), a run-off business reported in the Corporate and Other segment. Prior to the sale, JALIC met the criteria for held for sale presentation and, therefore, its assets and liabilities were recorded as held for sale in the December 31, 2021 consolidated balance sheet. The major classes of assets and liabilities held for sale included $915.8 million of future policy benefits and expenses, $881.6 million of reinsurance recoverables, $159.6 million of other investments and $117.2 million of claims and benefits payable as December 31, 2021.
Most of the $881.6 million reinsurance recoverables balance for JALIC, which was included in assets held for sale as of December 31, 2021 was reinsured with Employers Reassurance Corporation and was uncollateralized.
5. Segment Information
In conjunction with the transition of the Company’s CEO and chief operating decision maker on January 1, 2022, the Company changed its segment measure of profitability for its reportable segments to an Adjusted EBITDA metric, as the primary measure used for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing performance, from segment net income from continuing operations, effective as of that date. Prior period amounts have been revised to reflect the new segment measure of profitability.
Beginning with second quarter 2022, the Company changed the calculation of its segment measure of profitability, Adjusted EBITDA, to exclude certain businesses which the Company expects to fully exit, including the long-tail commercial

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

liability businesses in Global Housing (sharing economy and small commercial businesses), as well as certain legacy long-duration insurance policies within Global Lifestyle (collectively referred to as “non-core operations”), and present them as a reconciling item to consolidated net income from continuing operations. The non-core operations have been or are in the process of being exited by the Company, but do not qualify as held for sale or discontinued operations under GAAP accounting guidance.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had three reportable segments: Global Lifestyle, Global Housing and Corporate and Other. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income from continuing operations, excluding net realized gains (losses) on investments and fair value changes to equity securities, COVID-19 direct and incremental expenses, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-core operations (defined above), net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, restructuring costs related to strategic exit activities (outside of normal periodic restructuring and cost management activities), as well as other highly variable or unusual items.
All prior period amounts have been revised, which impacts both segment Adjusted EBITDA and other adjustments under reconciling items to consolidated net income from continuing operations, but does not impact consolidated net income. The sharing economy and small commercial businesses, previously reported through the Company’s Global Housing segment, generated Adjusted EBITDA of $(3.6) million and $(46.8) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA of $(6.1) million and $(0.6) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The legacy long-duration insurance policies included in non-core operations and previously reported through the Company’s Global Lifestyle segment, generated Adjusted EBITDA of $0.7 million and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and Adjusted EBITDA of $(2.1) million and $(2.0) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA was also revised for an error related to reinsurance of claims and benefits payable within the Connected Living business unit in the Global Lifestyle segment, and for other unrelated immaterial errors. See Note 2 for more information.

6. Contract Revenues
The Company partners with clients to provide consumers with a diverse range of protection products and services. The Company’s revenues from protection products are accounted for as insurance contracts and are recognized over the term of the insurance protection provided. Revenues from service contracts and sales of products are recognized as the contractual performance obligations are satisfied or the products are delivered. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for performing the services or transferring products. If payments are received before the related revenue is recognized, the amount is recorded as unearned revenue or advance payment liabilities, until the performance obligations are satisfied or the products are transferred.
The disaggregated revenues from service contracts included in fees and other income on the consolidated statements of operations are $257.9 million and $264.0 million for Global Lifestyle and $19.8 million and $22.4 million for Global Housing for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The disaggregated revenues from service contracts included in fees and other income on the consolidated statement of operations are $825.5 million and $730.1 million for Global Lifestyle and $63.4 million and $71.8 million for Global Housing for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Global Lifestyle
In the Company’s Global Lifestyle segment, revenues from service contracts and sales of products are primarily from the Company’s Connected Living business. Through partnerships with mobile carriers, the Company provides administrative services related to its mobile device protection products, including program design and marketing strategy, risk management, data analytics, customer support and claims handling, supply chain and service delivery, repair and logistics, and device disposition. Administrative fees are generally billed monthly based on the volume of services provided during the billing period (for example, based on the number of mobile subscribers) with payment due within a short-term period. Each service or bundle of services, depending on the contract, is an individual performance obligation with a standalone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue as it invoices, which corresponds to the value transferred to the customer.
The Company also repairs, refurbishes and then sells mobile and other electronic devices, on behalf of its clients, for a bundled per unit fee. The entire processing of the device is considered one performance obligation with a standalone selling price and thus, the per unit fee is recognized when the products are sold. Payments are generally due prior to shipment or within a short-term period.
Global Housing
In the Company’s Global Housing segment, revenues from service contracts and sales of products are primarily from the Company’s Lender-placed Insurance business. Under the Company’s Lender-placed Insurance business, the Company provides loan and claim payment tracking services for lenders. The Company generally invoices its customers weekly or monthly based on the volume of services provided during the billing period with payment due within a short-term period. Each service is an individual performance obligation with a standalone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue as it invoices, which corresponds to the value transferred to the customer.
Contract Balances
The receivables and unearned revenue under these contracts were $265.9 million and $173.7 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2022, and $313.7 million and $191.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. These balances are included in premiums and accounts receivable and accounts payable and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from service contracts and sales of products recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 that was included in unearned revenue as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $20.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively. Revenue from service contracts and sales of products recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 that was included in unearned revenue as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $69.0 million and $47.6 million, respectively.
In certain circumstances, the Company defers upfront commissions and other costs in connection with client contracts in excess of one year where the Company can demonstrate future economic benefit. For these contracts, expense is recognized as revenues are earned. The Company periodically assesses recoverability based on the performance of the related contracts. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $62.3 million and $93.0 million, respectively, of such intangible assets attributed to service contracts that will be expensed over the term of the client contracts.

recognize credit-related losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company currently does not intend to and is not required to sell these investments prior to an anticipated recovery in value.
The Company has entered into commercial mortgage loans, collateralized by the underlying real estate, on properties located throughout the U.S. As of September 30, 2022, approximately 36% of the outstanding principal balance of commercial mortgage loans was concentrated in the states of California, Texas and Maryland. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, an economic downturn could have an adverse impact on the ability of its debtors to repay their loans. The outstanding balance of commercial mortgage loans range in size from less than $0.1 million to $9.5 million as of September 30, 2022 and from $0.1 million to $9.6 million as of December 31, 2021.
Credit quality indicators for commercial mortgage loans are loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios. The loan-to-value ratio compares the principal amount of the loan to the fair value of the underlying property collateralizing the loan, and is commonly expressed as a percentage. The debt-service coverage ratio compares a property’s net operating income to its debt-service payments and is commonly expressed as a ratio. The loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios are generally updated annually in the fourth quarter.
The following table presents the amortized cost basis of commercial mortgage loans, excluding the allowance for credit losses, by origination year for certain key credit quality indicators at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

8. Fair Value Disclosures
Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities Disclosures
The fair value measurements and disclosures guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company has categorized its recurring fair value basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and takes into account factors specific to the asset or liability.
The levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
•Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access.
•Level 2 inputs utilize other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(in millions, except number of shares and per share amounts)
are not active and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable in the marketplace for the asset or liability. The observable inputs are used in valuation models to calculate the fair value for the asset or liability.
•Level 3 inputs are unobservable but are significant to the fair value measurement for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company reviews fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy.
The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The amounts presented below for short-term investments, other investments, cash equivalents, other assets, assets held in and liabilities related to separate accounts and other liabilities differ from the amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets because only certain investments or certain assets and liabilities within these line items are measured at estimated fair value. Other investments are comprised of investments in the Assurant Investment Plan (“AIP”), the American Security Insurance Company Investment Plan, the Assurant Deferred Compensation Plan and other derivatives. Other liabilities are comprised of investments in the AIP, contingent considerations related to business combinations and other derivatives. The fair value amount and the majority of the associated levels presented for other investments and assets and liabilities held in separate accounts are received directly from third parties.
