Brighthouse Financial, Inc. ("Brighthouse Financial" or the "company") (NASDAQ:BHF) announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Results

The company reported net income available to shareholders of $453 million in the third quarter of 2023, or $6.89 per diluted share, compared with net income available to shareholders of $388 million in the third quarter of 2022. During the quarter, as a result of market performance, the value of our hedges decreased, as expected, which was more than offset by the change in market risk benefits ("MRB"). Under GAAP accounting, all variable annuity guaranteed benefits classified as MRB are accounted for on a fair value basis. The company anticipates volatility in net income (loss) given the differences between GAAP MRB and our hedge target.

In the third quarter of 2023, the company completed its annual actuarial review where it reviews its long-term assumptions. This resulted in a net unfavorable impact to net income of $164 million. As part of this review, the company increased its long-term mean reversion interest rate assumption for the 10-year U.S. Treasury from 3.50% to 3.75% and updated its policyholder behavior assumptions.

The company ended the third quarter of 2023 with common stockholders' equity ("book value") of $2.4 billion, or $36.63 per common share, and book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") of $9.5 billion, or $146.61 per common share.

Financial Supplement and/or the Third Quarter 2023 Brighthouse Financial, Inc. Earnings Call Presentation (which are available on the Brighthouse Financial Investor Relations webpage at http://investor.brighthousefinancial.com). GAAP results reflect the company's adoption, on January 1, 2023, of the provisions of FASB ASU 2018-12, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts ("LDTI"), and any GAAP historical data contained herein has been updated retrospectively. Additional information regarding notable items can be found on the last page of this news release.

For the third quarter of 2023, the company reported adjusted earnings* of $326 million, or $4.97 per diluted share, compared with adjusted earnings of $115 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022.

Adjusted earnings for the quarter reflect $51 million of net favorable notable items, or $0.78 per diluted share, related to actuarial items, including the annual actuarial review.

Corporate expenses in the third quarter of 2023 were $210 million, down from $221 million in the second quarter of 2023, both on a pre-tax basis.

Third quarter year-to-date total annuity sales decreased 5% compared with the same period in 2022. Quarter-over-quarter annuity sales decreased 30%, driven by lower fixed deferred annuities, partially offset by a 30% increase in Shield Level annuity sales. Annuity sales increased 5% sequentially, driven by higher Shield Level annuity sales. Third quarter year-to-date total life sales increased 26% compared with the same period in 2022, 32% quarter-over-quarter and were flat sequentially.

During the third quarter of 2023, the company repurchased $64 million of its common stock, with an additional approximately $27 million of its common stock repurchased, on a trade date basis, through November 3, 2023.

"Brighthouse Financial's solid third quarter results reflect the steady execution of our focused strategy," said Eric Steigerwalt, president and CEO, Brighthouse Financial. "We maintained our target capitalization and strong liquidity, prudently managed our expenses and repurchased more of our common stock."

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Disclosures

Our definitions of non-GAAP and other financial measures may differ from those used by other companies.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures

We present certain measures of our performance that are not calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, also known as "GAAP." We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the understanding of our performance by the investor community by highlighting the results of operations and the underlying profitability drivers of our business.

The following non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP:

	Non-GAAP financial measures:	Most directly comparable GAAP financial measures:
	adjusted earnings	net income (loss) available to shareholders (1)
	adjusted earnings, less notable items	net income (loss) available to shareholders (1)
	adjusted revenues	revenues
	adjusted expenses	expenses
	adjusted earnings per common share	earnings per common share, diluted (1)
	adjusted earnings per common share, less notable items	earnings per common share, diluted (1)
	adjusted return on common equity	return on common equity (2)
	adjusted return on common equity, less notable items	return on common equity (2)
	adjusted net investment income	net investment income
	__________________
	(1) Brighthouse uses net income (loss) available to shareholders to refer to net income (loss) available to Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common shareholders, and earnings per common share, diluted to refer to net income (loss) available to shareholders per common share.
	(2) Brighthouse uses return on common equity to refer to return on Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders' equity.

Reconciliations to the most directly comparable historical GAAP measures are included for those measures which are presented herein. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis because we believe it is not possible without unreasonable efforts to provide other than a range of net investment gains and losses and net derivative gains and losses, which can fluctuate significantly within or outside the range and from period to period and may have a material impact on net income (loss) available to shareholders.

Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted Revenues and Adjusted Expenses

Adjusted earnings is a financial measure used by management to evaluate performance and facilitate comparisons to industry results. This financial measure, which may be positive or negative, focuses on our primary businesses by excluding the impact of market volatility, which could distort trends.

Adjusted earnings reflect adjusted revenues less (i) adjusted expenses, (ii) provision for income tax expense (benefit), (iii) net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and (iv) preferred stock dividends. Provided below are the adjustments to GAAP revenues and GAAP expenses used to calculate adjusted revenues and adjusted expenses, respectively.

The following are significant items excluded from total revenues in calculating the adjusted revenues component of adjusted earnings:

Net investment gains (losses); and

Net derivative gains (losses) ("NDGL") except earned income and amortization of premium on derivatives that are hedges of investments or that are used to replicate certain investments, but do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment ("Investment Hedge Adjustments").

The following are significant items excluded from total expenses in calculating the adjusted expenses component of adjusted earnings:

Change in market risk benefits; and

Change in fair value of the crediting rate on experience-rated contracts ("Market Value Adjustments").

The provision for income tax related to adjusted earnings is calculated using the statutory tax rate of 21%, net of impacts related to the dividends received deduction, tax credits and current period non-recurring items.

Consistent with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, adjusted earnings is also our GAAP measure of segment performance.

Adjusted Earnings per Common Share and Adjusted Return on Common Equity

Adjusted earnings per common share and adjusted return on common equity are measures used by management to evaluate the execution of our business strategy and align such strategy with our shareholders' interests.

Adjusted earnings per common share is defined as adjusted earnings for the period divided by the weighted average number of fully diluted shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The weighted average common shares outstanding used to calculate adjusted earnings per share will differ from such shares used to calculate diluted net income (loss) available to shareholders per common share when the inclusion of dilutive shares has an anti-dilutive effect for one calculation but not for the other.

Adjusted return on common equity is defined as total annual adjusted earnings on a four quarter trailing basis, divided by the simple average of the most recent five quarters of total Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders' equity, excluding AOCI.

Adjusted Net Investment Income

We present adjusted net investment income to measure our performance for management purposes, and we believe it enhances the understanding of our investment portfolio results. Adjusted net investment income represents GAAP net investment income plus Investment Hedge Adjustments.

Other Financial Disclosures

Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses includes functional department expenses, public company expenses, certain investment expenses, retirement funding and incentive compensation; and excludes establishment costs.

Notable items

Certain of the non-GAAP measures described above may be presented further adjusted to exclude notable items. Notable items reflect the unfavorable (favorable) after-tax impact on our results of certain unanticipated items and events, as well as certain items and events that were anticipated, such as establishment costs. The presentation of notable items and non-GAAP measures, less notable items is intended to help investors better understand our results and to evaluate and forecast those results.

Book Value per Common Share and Book Value per Common Share, excluding AOCI

Brighthouse uses the term "book value" to refer to "Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders' equity, including AOCI." Book value per common share is defined as ending Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders' equity, including AOCI, divided by ending common shares outstanding. Book value per common share, excluding AOCI, is defined as ending Brighthouse Financial, Inc.'s common stockholders' equity, excluding AOCI, divided by ending common shares outstanding.

CTE98

CTE98 is defined as the amount of assets required to satisfy contract holder obligations across market environments in the average of the worst two percent of a set of capital market scenarios over the life of the contracts.

Holding Company Liquid Assets

Holding company liquid assets include liquid assets in Brighthouse Financial, Inc., Brighthouse Holdings, LLC, and Brighthouse Services, LLC. Liquid assets are comprised of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and publicly-traded securities, excluding assets that are pledged or otherwise committed. Assets pledged or otherwise committed include assets held in trust.

Total Adjusted Capital

Total adjusted capital primarily consists of statutory capital and surplus, as well as the statutory asset valuation reserve. When referred to as "combined," represents that of our insurance subsidiaries as a whole.

Sales

Life insurance sales consist of 100 percent of annualized new premium for term life, first-year paid premium for whole life, universal life, and variable universal life, and total paid premium for indexed universal life. We exclude company-sponsored internal exchanges, corporate-owned life insurance, bank-owned life insurance, and private placement variable universal life.

Annuity sales consist of 100 percent of direct statutory premiums, except for fixed index annuity sales, which represents 100 percent of gross sales on directly written business and the proportion of assumed gross sales under reinsurance agreements. Annuity sales exclude certain internal exchanges. These sales statistics do not correspond to revenues under GAAP, but are used as relevant measures of business activity.

Net Investment Income Yield

Similar to adjusted net investment income, we present net investment income yields as a performance measure we believe enhances the understanding of our investment portfolio results. Net investment income yields are calculated on adjusted net investment income as a percentage of average quarterly asset carrying values. Asset carrying values exclude unrealized gains (losses), collateral received in connection with our securities lending program, freestanding derivative assets and collateral received from derivative counterparties. Investment fee and expense yields are calculated as a percentage of average quarterly asset estimated fair values. Asset estimated fair values exclude collateral received in connection with our securities lending program, freestanding derivative assets and collateral received from derivative counterparties.

Normalized Statutory Earnings (Loss)

Normalized statutory earnings (loss) is used by management to measure our insurance companies' ability to pay future distributions and is reflective of whether our hedging program functions as intended. Normalized statutory earnings (loss) is calculated as statutory pre-tax net gain (loss) from operations adjusted for the favorable or unfavorable impacts of (i) net realized capital gains (losses), (ii) the change in total asset requirement at CTE98, net of the change in our variable annuity reserves, and (iii) unrealized gains (losses) associated with our variable annuities and Shield hedging programs and other equity risk management strategies. Normalized statutory earnings (loss) may be further adjusted for certain unanticipated items that impact our results in order to help management and investors better understand, evaluate and forecast those results.

Risk-Based Capital Ratio

The risk-based capital ratio is a method of measuring an insurance company's capital, taking into consideration its relative size and risk profile, in order to ensure compliance with minimum regulatory capital requirements set by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. When referred to as "combined," represents that of our insurance subsidiaries as a whole. The reporting of our combined risk-based capital ratio is not intended for the purpose of ranking any insurance company or for use in connection with any marketing, advertising or promotional activities.
