FNF Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Jacksonville, Fla. – (August 8, 2023) - Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (NYSE:FNF) (“FNF” or the “Company”), a leading provider of title insurance and transaction services to the real estate and mortgage industries and a leading provider of insurance solutions serving retail annuity and life customers and institutional clients through its majority-owned, publicly traded subsidiary F&G Annuities & Life, Inc. (NYSE:FG) (“F&G”), today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.
Net earnings attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter of $219 million, or $0.81 per diluted share (per share), compared to $537 million, or $1.92 per share, for the second quarter of 2022. Net earnings attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2023 includes $7 million of net unfavorable mark-to-market effects and $48 million of other unfavorable items; all of which are excluded from adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders.
Adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders (adjusted net earnings) for the second quarter of $274 million, or $1.01 per share, compared to $557 million, or $2.00 per share, for the second quarter of 2022. The Title Segment contributed $226 million for the second quarter, compared to $418 million for the second quarter 2022. The F&G Segment contributed $67 million for the second quarter, compared to $155 million for the second quarter 2022. The Corporate Segment had adjusted net losses of $19 million for the second quarter, compared to adjusted net losses of $16 million for the second quarter of 2022. The results reflect Title’s considerable decline in volumes as compared to the prior year given higher mortgage rates, partially offset by higher average fee per file. In addition, F&G’s adjusted net earnings include a significant income item that contributed $0.02 per share and was offset by alternative investment returns below our long-term expectations by $0.17 per share. Please see “Segment Financial Results” for F&G under “Non-GAAP Measures and Other Information” for further explanation.
Company Highlights
•Solid Title Revenue: For the Title Segment, total revenue of $1.9 billion, a 27% decrease from $2.6 billion in the second quarter of 2022. Total revenue, excluding recognized gains and losses, of $1.9 billion for the second quarter, which, although a 32% decrease from $2.8 billion in the second quarter of 2022, is more comparable with historical levels as seen in 2018 and 2019.
•Steady F&G Segment gross sales and record assets under management: For the F&G Segment, gross sales of $3.0 billion for the second quarter, a 3% decrease from $3.1 billion in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting higher retail channel sales offset by lower institutional market sales which we expect to be lumpier; record assets under management (AUM) of $46.3 billion as of June 30, 2023, driven by new business net of flow reinsurance, stable inforce retention and net debt proceeds.
•Ample deployable capital in a challenging market: FNF paid common dividends of $0.45 per share for $121 million in the second quarter. FNF ended the second quarter with $885 million in cash and short-term liquid investments at the holding company.
William P. Foley, II, commented, “Our Title business delivered an industry leading adjusted pre-tax margin of 15.8% in the second quarter given the expense actions taken over the past year. This is a great result in what has been a challenging environment. F&G also performed well having generated $3.0 billion in gross sales as management successfully executes their diversified growth strategy. Importantly, F&G ended the quarter with a record $46.3 billion in assets under management. F&G continues to exceed all of our expectations and is becoming an important financial contributor to FNF’s results.”
Mr. Foley concluded, “While the long-term outlook for housing remains strong given household formation and underlying demographics in the U.S., the near term continues to be uncertain given the high level of interest rates which could persist for longer than expected. As a result, we continue to focus on balance sheet strength having
ended the quarter with $885 million in cash and short-term liquid investments which positions the Company for an uncertain environment. Looking forward, we remain committed to our quarterly cash dividend though we have prudently moderated our share repurchase activity in order to preserve our financial flexibility.”

Segment Financial Results
Title Segment
This segment consists of the operations of the Company’s title insurance underwriters and related businesses, which provide core title insurance and escrow and other title-related services including loan sub-servicing, valuations, default services, and home warranty products.
Mike Nolan, Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our second quarter results are a clear testament of our ability to navigate through varying economic cycles and highlight the expertise of our field managers to reduce our expense structure as seen through 2022 and the first half of 2023. Our Title business is performing very well and positioned for what could be a challenging second half of the year as mortgage rates remain elevated. As we strive to maximize margins in a given market, we will also continue to manage our business for the long-term, providing protection for our policyholders and outstanding service to our customers.”
Mr. Nolan added, “A clear benefit of our financial strength, scale, and profitability is our ability to invest in our business through cycles as we further expand our competitive positioning in the industry. Our inHere platform is an area where we have been investing in recent years and is quickly gaining traction, having had over 1.4 million users on our platform over the last two years and nearly 90% of our 200,000 real estate professionals active in the last 30 days. We continue to add functionality and content to our inHere platform as we work to drive further adoption and usage across the industry.”

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
•Pre-tax title margin of 12.5% and industry leading adjusted pre-tax title margin of 15.8% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 10.5% and 18.9%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2022

•Adjusted pre-tax earnings in Title for the second quarter of $302 million compared with $529 million for the second quarter of 2022. The decrease from the prior year quarter was primarily a result of the considerable decline in residential and commercial volumes due to higher mortgage rates, partially offset by higher average fee per file
F&G Segment
This segment consists of operations of FNF’s majority-owned subsidiary F&G, a leading provider of insurance solutions serving retail annuity and life customers and funding agreement and pension risk transfer institutional clients.
Chris Blunt, President and Chief Executive Officer of F&G, commented, “Our strong second quarter results demonstrate the success that we have achieved expanding our products and distribution channels and scaling our profitable inforce book of business. Additionally, excluding significant items, we delivered adjusted return on assets above our 100 basis point target for the sixth quarter in a row, reflecting our expanding product margins and disciplined expense management as we invest and scale the business. That said, the market has been slow to recognize our progress as our shares continue to trade meaningfully below intrinsic value. As a result, we repurchased 790,000 shares for $16.4 million during the second quarter, under our $25 million share repurchase authorization.”
Mr. Blunt concluded, “We have strong momentum as we head into the second half of the year, with many opportunities ahead of us to further expand our business as we continue to diversify into capital light, fee-based earnings streams which we believe will drive margin expansion and improved returns. Additionally, our recent financial strength ratings upgrade to ‘A3’ by Moody’s is not only a strong validation of our financial performance but will also be a tailwind to our institutional markets business over time. I could not be more excited with what the future holds for our Company and employees.”
Second Quarter 2023
•Gross sales: Gross sales of $3.0 billion for the second quarter, a 3% decrease from $3.1 billion in the second quarter of 2022, driven by higher retail channel sales offset by lower institutional market sales, which we expect to be lumpier and more opportunistic than our retail channels
•Strong Retail channel sales of $2.3 billion for the first quarter, a 5% increase over $2.2 billion in the second quarter of 2022; reflects our fifth consecutive quarter of retail channel sales exceeding $2 billion and driven by continued strong consumer demand for high yielding products with principal protection
•Solid Institutional market sales of $0.7 billion, comprised of $0.5 billion pension risk transfer and $0.2 billion funding agreements, compared to $0.9 billion in the second quarter of 2022, solely comprised of funding agreements; reflects a healthy pension risk transfer pipeline and opportunistic funding agreement issuance
•Net sales of $2.2 billion for the second quarter, a decrease of 12% from $2.5 billion in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting our strategic usage of third party flow reinsurance which increased from 50% to 75% in September of 2022
•Average assets under management (AAUM) on a year-to-date basis of $44.9 billion for the second quarter, an increase of 17% from $38.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, driven by net new business flows and stable inforce retention. Record ending assets under management were $46.3 billion as of June 30, 2023
•Net earnings attributable to common shareholders for F&G Segment of $110 million for the second quarter due to favorable mark-to-market movement, compared to $385 million for the second quarter of 2022 which included favorable mark-to-market movement
•Adjusted net earnings for F&G Segment of $67 million for the second quarter, compared to $155 million for the second quarter of 2022; F&G’s adjusted net earnings reflect significant items and alternatives investment portfolio short-term mark-to-market movement that differs from long-term return expectation. Please see “Segment Financial Results” for F&G under “Non-GAAP Measures and Other Information” for further explanation.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release includes non-GAAP financial measures, which the Company believes are useful to help investors better understand its financial performance, competitive position and prospects for the future. These non-GAAP measures include adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax title earnings, adjusted pre-tax title earnings as a percentage of adjusted title revenue (adjusted pre-tax title margin), adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders (adjusted net earnings), assets under management (AUM), average assets under management (AAUM) and sales.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate such non-GAAP measures in the same manner as we do.
The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, FNF believes it offers investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced level of transparency into, the means by which the Company’s management operates the Company.
Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings, net earnings attributable to common shareholders, net earnings per share, or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating
performance or liquidity. Further, FNF's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.
Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The risks and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: changes in general economic, business, political and COVID-19 conditions, including changes in the financial markets; weakness or adverse changes in the level of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage funding or a weak U. S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates; our dependence on distributions from our title insurance underwriters as a main source of cash flow; significant competition that F&G and our operating subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries; and other risks detailed in the “Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of FNF's Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

DEFINITIONS
The following represents the definitions of non-GAAP measures used by the Company.
Adjusted Net Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders (Adjusted Net Earnings)
Adjusted net earnings is a non-GAAP economic measure we use to evaluate financial performance each period. Adjusted net earnings is calculated by adjusting net earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders to eliminate:
i.Recognized (gains) and losses, net: the impact of net investment gains/losses, including changes in allowance for expected credit losses and other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses, recognized in operations; and the effect of changes in fair value of the reinsurance related embedded derivative;
ii.Market related liability adjustments: the impacts related to changes in the fair value, including both realized and unrealized gains and losses, of index product related derivatives and embedded derivatives, net of hedging cost; the impact of initial pension risk transfer deferred profit liability losses, including amortization from previously deferred pension risk transfer deferred profit liability losses; and the changes in the fair value of market risk benefits by deferring current period changes and amortizing that amount over the life of the market risk benefit;
iii.Purchase price amortization: the impacts related to the amortization of certain intangibles (internally developed software, trademarks and value of distribution asset (“VODA”)) recognized as a result of acquisition activities;
iv.Transaction costs: the impacts related to acquisition, integration and merger related items;
v.Certain income tax adjustments: the impacts related to unusual tax items that do not reflect our core operating performance such as the establishment or reversal of significant deferred tax asset valuation allowances in our Title and Corporate and Other segments;
vi.Other “non-recurring,” “infrequent” or “unusual items”: Management excludes certain items determined to be “non-recurring,” “infrequent” or “unusual” from adjusted net earnings when incurred if it is determined these expenses are not a reflection of the core business and when the nature of the item is such that it is not reasonably likely to recur within two years and/or there was not a similar item in the preceding two years;
vii.Income taxes: the income tax impact related to the above mentioned adjustments is measured using an effective tax rate, as appropriate by tax jurisdiction; and
viii.Non-controlling interest on non-GAAP adjustments: the portion of the non-GAAP adjustments attributable to the equity interest of F&G that FNF does not own
While these adjustments are an integral part of the overall performance of F&G, market conditions and/or the non-operating nature of these items can overshadow the underlying performance of the core business. Accordingly, management considers this to be a useful measure internally and to investors and analysts in analyzing the trends of our operations. Adjusted net earnings should not be used as a substitute for net earnings (loss). However, we believe the adjustments made to net earnings (loss) in order to derive adjusted net earnings provide an understanding of our overall results of operations.
Assets Under Management (AUM)
AUM uses the following components:
i.total invested assets at amortized cost, excluding derivatives, net of reinsurance qualifying for risk transfer in accordance with GAAP;
ii.related party loans and investments;
iii.accrued investment income;
iv.the net payable/receivable for the purchase/sale of investments, and
v.cash and cash equivalents excluding derivative collateral at the end the period.
Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on assets available for reinvestment.
Average Assets Under Management (AAUM) (Quarterly and YTD)
AAUM is calculated as AUM at the beginning of the period and the end of each month in the period, divided by the total number of months in the period plus one. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on assets available for reinvestment.
Sales
Annuity, IUL, funding agreement and non-life contingent PRT sales are not derived from any specific GAAP income statement accounts or line items and should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Sales from these products are recorded as deposit liabilities (i.e. contractholder funds) within the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Life contingent PRT sales are recorded as premiums in revenues within the consolidated financial statements. Management believes that presentation of sales, as measured for management purposes, enhances the understanding of our business and helps depict longer term trends that may not be apparent in the results of operations due to the timing of sales and revenue recognition.
