NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Formation of Genworth and Basis of Presentation
Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”) (formerly known as Genworth Financial, Inc.) was incorporated in Delaware in 2003 in preparation for an initial public offering (“IPO”) of Genworth’s common stock, which was completed on May 28, 2004. On April 1, 2013, Genworth Holdings completed a holding company reorganization pursuant to which Genworth Holdings became a direct, 100% owned subsidiary of a new public holding company that it had formed. The new public holding company was incorporated in Delaware on December 5, 2012, in connection with the reorganization, and was renamed Genworth Financial, Inc. upon the completion of the reorganization.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include on a consolidated basis the accounts of Genworth Financial and the affiliate companies in which it holds a majority voting interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Genworth Financial,” “Genworth,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto are to Genworth Financial, Inc. on a consolidated basis.
We operate our business through the following three operating segments:
 
   
Enact (formerly known as U.S. Mortgage Insurance).
We offer mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans at specified coverage percentages (“primary mortgage insurance”). We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination (“pool mortgage insurance”).
 
   
U.S. Life Insurance.
We offer long-term care insurance products as well as service traditional life insurance and fixed annuity products in the United States.
 
   
Runoff.
The Runoff segment includes the results of products which have not been actively sold since 2011, but we continue to service our existing blocks of business. These products primarily include variable annuity, variable life insurance and corporate-owned life insurance, as well as funding agreements.
In addition to our three operating business segments, we also have Corporate and Other activities which include debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, eliminations of inter-segment transactions and the results of other businesses that are managed outside of our operating segments, including certain international mortgage insurance businesses and discontinued operations.
On March 3, 2021, we completed a sale of our entire ownership interest of approximately 52% in Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia Limited (“Genworth Australia”) through an underwritten agreement. We sold our approximately 214.3 million shares of Genworth Australia for AUD2.28 per share. Our Australian mortgage insurance business, previously the primary business in the Australia Mortgage Insurance segment, is reported as discontinued operations and its financial position, results of operations and cash flows are separately reported for all periods presented. All prior periods reflected herein have been re-presented on this basis. See note 13 for additional information.

Unless otherwise indicated, references to the condensed consolidated balance sheets, the condensed consolidated statements of income, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, exclude amounts related to discontinued operations.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Each reporting period, we assess our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued. As of June 30, 2021, Genworth Holdings has $823 million of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and liquid assets. Our evaluation of our ability to meet our financial obligations included the following contractual obligations due within one year from the issue date of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, as well as other conditions and events and their relative significance in relation to our ability to meet our obligations:
 
   
As of June 30, 2021, Genworth Holdings had outstanding $513 million of its 7.625% senior notes, excluding the note premium, that was originally scheduled to mature in September 2021. We are currently in compliance with the terms of our debt agreements, and interest payments on our remaining senior notes are forecasted to be approximately $60 million for the next twelve months. In July 2021, Genworth Holdings early redeemed its 7.625% senior notes with a cash payment of approximately $532 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and a make-whole premium. See note 8 for additional details on our long-term borrowings.
 
   
As part of the settlement agreement reached in July 2020 regarding the case titled
AXA S.A. v. Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC et al.,
we issued a secured promissory note to AXA S.A. (“AXA”) that is due in September 2022. On March 3, 2021, we repaid the first installment payment to AXA and a portion of the second installment from cash proceeds received from the Genworth Australia sale. Over the next year, we expect to pay AXA approximately $10 million primarily consisting of interest on the remaining promissory note, assuming we do not make any additional prepayments, and a one-time payment associated with a tax gross up on underwriting losses related to a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business. See note 13 for additional details related to the sale of our former lifestyle protection insurance business and amounts recorded related to discontinued operations.
 
   
Genworth Holdings received intercompany cash tax payments from its subsidiaries during the six months ended June 30, 2021 generated primarily from taxable income. Additional intercompany cash tax payments are expected in future periods.
 
   
Until the secured promissory note to AXA is paid, annual dividends above $50 million from Enact Holdings, Inc. (“Enact Holdings”), formerly known as Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc., our wholly-owned U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, are subject to mandatory prepayment conditions.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
We received net cash proceeds of $370 million from the sale of Genworth Australia in March 2021, of which $247
million was used to prepay a portion of the AXA promissory note, as noted above, including accrued interest. We believe Genworth Holdings’ current unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and liquid assets provide sufficient liquidity to meet our financial obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the date the financial statements are issued, based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably estimable, including current cash and management actions in the normal course. Accordingly, we no longer need to determine whether our plans alleviate doubt about our ability to meet our financial commitments and obligations within the next year.
The remaining AXA promissory note, including expected future claims, is estimated to be $344 million and is due in September 2022. In addition, Genworth Holdings has $400 million of senior notes due in both August 2023 and February 2024. To help address these debt obligations beyond the next year and reduce our overall indebtedness, we are actively taking additional steps toward raising capital by preparing for a potential partial sale of Enact Holdings, subject to market conditions, as well as the satisfaction of various conditions and approvals.
The impact of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) is very difficult to predict. Its related outcomes and impact on our business and the capital markets, and our ability to raise capital will depend on economic impacts from social, global and political influences as a result of the pandemic, and the shape of the economic recovery, among other factors and uncertainties. While these risks exist, we believe our current liquidity is sufficient to meet our obligations for one year following the issuance of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
(2) Accounting Changes
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
On January 1, 2021, we adopted new accounting guidance related to simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the retrospective method or modified retrospective method for certain changes and prospective method for all other changes, which did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new accounting guidance that significantly changes the recognition and measurement of long-duration insurance contracts and expands disclosure requirements, which impacts our life insurance deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and liabilities. In accordance with the guidance, the more significant changes include:
 
   
assumptions will no longer be locked-in at contract inception and all cash flow assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits (except the discount rate) will be reviewed at least annually in the same period each year or more frequently if actual experience indicates a change is required. Changes will be recorded in net income (loss) using a retrospective approach with a cumulative catch-up adjustment by recalculating the net premium ratio (which will be capped at 100%) using actual historical and updated future cash flow assumptions;
 
   
the discount rate used to determine the liability for future policy benefits will be a current upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed-income instrument yield, which is generally interpreted to mean a

(Unaudited)
 
 
single-A rated bond rate for the same duration, and is required to be reviewed quarterly, with changes in the discount rate recorded in other comprehensive income (loss);
 
   
the provision for adverse deviation and the premium deficiency test will be eliminated;
 
   
market risk benefits associated with deposit-type contracts will be measured at fair value with changes related to instrument-specific credit risk recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and remaining changes recorded in net income (loss);
 
   
the amortization method for DAC will generally be on a straight-line basis over the expected contract term; and
 
   
disclosures will be greatly expanded to include significant assumptions and product liability rollforwards.
This guidance is effective for us on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective method (with transition adjustments as of January 1, 2021) for all topics except for market risk benefits, which is required to be applied using the retrospective method, with early adoption permitted, which we do not intend to elect. We are currently in process of developing a detailed implementation plan that will allow us to obtain necessary data, modify systems, identify and develop key inputs and establish policies, systems and internal controls that will be necessary to implement this new accounting guidance. Given the nature and extent of the changes to our operations, this guidance is expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, and may significantly reduce our equity at transition.

Under applicable accounting guidance, companies in a loss position are required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share. Therefore, as a result of our loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2020, we were required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding as the inclusion of shares for stock options, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights of 6.3 million would have been antidilutive to the calculation. If we had not incurred a loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2020, dilutive potential weighted-average common shares outstanding would have been 511.1 million.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the tables above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the decline in fair value is largely due to recent market volatility and is not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. For all securities in an unrealized loss position without an allowance for credit losses, we expect to recover the amortized cost based on our estimate of the amount and timing of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell nor do we expect that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of our commercial mortgage loans were current. For a discussion of our policy related to placing commercial mortgage loans on non-accrual status, see Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no commercial mortgage loans on non-accrual status.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, we did not have any modifications or extensions that were considered troubled debt restructurings.

In evaluating the credit quality of commercial mortgage loans, we assess the performance of the underlying loans using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Certain risks associated with commercial mortgage loans can be evaluated by reviewing both the debt-to-value and debt service coverage ratio to understand both the probability of the borrower not being able to make the necessary loan payments as well as the ability to sell the underlying property for an amount that would enable us to recover our unpaid principal balance in the event of default by the borrower. The average debt-to-value ratio is based on our most recent estimate of the fair value for

the underlying property which is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A lower debt-to-value indicates that our loan value is more likely to be recovered in the event of default by the borrower if the property was sold. The debt service coverage ratio is based on “normalized” annual income of the property compared to the payments required under the terms of the loan. Normalization allows for the removal of annual one-time events such as capital expenditures, prepaid or late real estate tax payments or non-recurring third-party fees (such as legal, consulting or contract fees). This ratio is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A higher debt service coverage ratio indicates the borrower is less likely to default on the loan. The debt service coverage ratio is not used without considering other factors associated with the borrower, such as the borrower’s liquidity or access to other resources that may result in our expectation that the borrower will continue to make the future scheduled payments.

(f) Limited Partnerships or Similar Entities
Limited partnerships are accounted for at fair value when our partnership interest is considered minor (generally less than 3% ownership in the limited partnerships) and we exercise no influence over operating and financial policies. If our ownership percentage exceeds that threshold, limited partnerships are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In applying either method, we use financial information provided by the investee generally on a one-to-three month lag. However, for limited partnerships measured at fair value, we consider whether an adjustment to the estimated fair value is necessary when the measurement date is not aligned with our reporting date.
Investments in limited partnerships or similar entities are generally considered VIEs when the equity group lacks sufficient financial control. Generally, these investments are limited partner or non-managing member equity investments in a widely held fund that is sponsored and managed by a reputable asset manager. We are not the primary beneficiary of any VIE investment in a limited partnership or similar entity. As of June 30, 2021 and

December 31, 2020, the total carrying value of these investments was $1,306 million and $1,018 million, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to the outstanding carrying value and future funding commitments. We have not contributed, and do not plan to contribute, any additional financial or other support outside of what is contractually obligated.
(5) Derivative Instruments
Our business activities routinely deal with fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, currency exchange rates and other asset and liability prices. We use derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce some of these risks. We have established policies for managing each of these risks, including prohibitions on derivatives market-making and other speculative derivatives activities. These policies require the use of derivative instruments in concert with other techniques to reduce or mitigate these risks. While we use derivatives to mitigate or reduce risks, certain derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments and are denoted as “derivatives not designated as hedges” in the following disclosures. For derivatives that meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedges, the following disclosures for these derivatives are denoted as “derivatives designated as hedges,” which include cash flow hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges
Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”). We designate and account for the following as cash flow hedges when they have met the effectiveness requirements: (i) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate investments to fixed rate investments; (ii) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate liabilities into fixed rate liabilities; (iii) receive U.S. dollar fixed on foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure of foreign currency denominated investments; (iv) forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in interest rates associated with future fixed rate bond purchases and/or interest income; and (v) other instruments to hedge the cash flows of various forecasted transactions.

The total of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of $2,003 million, net of taxes, recorded in stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2021 is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the future, concurrently with and primarily offsetting changes in interest expense and interest income on floating rate instruments and interest income on future fixed rate bond purchases. Of this amount, $138 million, net of taxes, is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the next 12 months. Actual amounts may vary from this amount as a result of market conditions. All forecasted transactions associated with qualifying cash flow hedges are expected to occur by 2057. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we reclassified $4 million and $1 million, respectively, to net income (loss) in connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered probable of occurring.

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We have fixed maturity securities, short-term investments, equity securities, limited partnerships, derivatives, embedded derivatives, securities held as collateral, separate account assets and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value. Below is a description of the valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair value by class of instrument.
Fixed maturity, short-term investments and equity securities
The fair value of fixed maturity securities, short-term investments and equity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities), an income approach may be used. In addition, a combination of the results from market and income

approaches may be used to estimate fair value. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.
Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.
In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.
Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.
For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of June 30, 2021.
For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. We maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.
Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from pricing

services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities, short-term investments and equity securities based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.
Level 1 measurements
Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation of exchange-traded equity securities include quoted prices for the identical instrument.
Separate account assets.
The fair value of separate account assets is based on the quoted prices of the underlying fund investments and, therefore, represents Level 1 pricing.
Level 2 measurements
Fixed maturity securities
 
   
Third-party pricing services:
In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, 90% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of June 30, 2021. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

Internal models:
A portion of our U.S. corporate and non-U.S. corporate securities are valued using internal models. The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $1,578 million and $872 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2021. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.
Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active.
Securities lending collateral
The fair value of securities held as collateral is primarily based on Level 2 inputs from market information for the collateral that is held on our behalf by the custodian. We determine fair value after considering prices obtained by pricing services.
Short-term investments
The fair value of short-term investments classified as Level 2 is determined after considering prices obtained by pricing services.
Level 3 measurements
Fixed maturity securities
 
   
Broker quotes:
A portion of our state and political subdivisions, U.S. corporate, non-U.S. corporate, residential mortgage-backed, commercial mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are valued using broker quotes. Broker quotes are obtained from third-party providers that have current market knowledge to provide a reasonable price for securities not routinely priced by pricing services. Brokers utilized for valuation of assets are reviewed annually. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced by broker quotes was $336 million as of June 30, 2021.
 
   
Internal models:
A portion of our state and political subdivisions, U.S. corporate, non-U.S. corporate, residential mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are valued using internal models. The primary inputs to the valuation of the bond population include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, duration, call provisions, issuer rating, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which includes significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage ratios, payment priority with the tranche, benchmark yields and credit spreads. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced using internal models was $3,424 million as of June 30, 2021.

Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation include broker quotes where the underlying inputs are unobservable and for internal models, structure of the security and issuer rating.
Net asset value
Limited partnerships
Limited partnerships are valued based on comparable market transactions, discounted future cash flows, quoted market prices and/or estimates using the most recent data available for the underlying instrument. We utilize the net asset value (“NAV”) from the underlying fund statements as a practical expedient for fair value.
Derivatives
We consider counterparty collateral arrangements and rights of set-off when evaluating our net credit risk exposure to our derivative counterparties. Accordingly, we are permitted to include consideration of these arrangements when determining whether any incremental adjustment should be made for both the counterparty’s and our non-performance risk in measuring fair value for our derivative instruments. As a result of these counterparty arrangements, we determined that any adjustment for credit risk would not be material and we have not recorded any incremental adjustment for our non-performance risk or the non-performance risk of the derivative counterparty for our derivative assets or liabilities.
Interest rate swaps.
The valuation of interest rate swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary input into the valuation represents the forward interest rate swap curve, which is generally considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2. For certain interest rate swaps, the inputs into the valuation also include the total returns of certain bonds that would primarily be considered an observable input and result in the derivative being classified as Level 2.
Foreign currency swaps.
The valuation of foreign currency swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve and foreign currency exchange rates, both of which are considered observable inputs, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.
Equity index options.
We have equity index options associated with various equity indices. The valuation of equity index options is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent forward interest rates, equity index volatility, equity index and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative. The equity index volatility surface is determined based on market information that is not readily observable and is developed based upon inputs received from several third-party sources. Accordingly, these options are classified as Level 3. As of June 30, 2021, a significant increase (decrease) in the equity index volatility discussed above would have resulted in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
Financial futures.
The fair value of financial futures is based on the closing exchange prices. Accordingly, these financial futures are classified as Level 1. The period end valuation
is zero as a result of settling the margins on these contracts on a daily basis.
Other foreign currency contracts.
We have certain foreign currency options classified as other foreign currency contracts. The valuation of foreign currency options is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve, foreign currency exchange rates, forward interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate volatility and time value component associated with the

optionality in the derivative, which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2. We also have foreign currency forward contracts where the valuation is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward foreign currency exchange rates, which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.
GMWB embedded derivatives
We are required to bifurcate an embedded derivative for certain features associated with annuity products and related reinsurance agreements where we provide a GMWB to the policyholder and are required to record the GMWB embedded derivative at fair value. The valuation of our GMWB embedded derivative is based on an income approach that incorporates inputs such as forward interest rates, equity index volatility, equity index and fund correlation, and policyholder assumptions such as utilization, lapse and mortality. We determine fair value using an internal model based on the various inputs noted above.
Non-performance risk is integrated into the discount rate used to value GMWB liabilities. Our discount rate used to determine fair value of our GMWB liabilities includes market credit spreads above U.S. Treasury rates to reflect an adjustment for the non-performance risk of the GMWB liabilities. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the impact of non-performance risk resulted in a lower fair value of our GMWB liabilities of $52 million and $66 million, respectively.
We classify the GMWB valuation as Level 3 based on having significant unobservable inputs, with equity index volatility and non-performance risk being considered the more significant unobservable inputs. As equity index volatility increases, the fair value of the GMWB liabilities will increase. Any increase in non-performance risk would increase the discount rate and would decrease the fair value of the GMWB liability. Additionally, we consider lapse and utilization assumptions to be significant unobservable inputs. An increase in our lapse assumption would decrease the fair value of the GMWB liability, whereas an increase in our utilization rate would increase the fair value. As of June 30, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.
Fixed index annuity embedded derivatives
We have fixed indexed annuity products where interest is credited to the policyholder’s account balance based on equity index changes. This feature is required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach where the present value of the excess cash flows above the guaranteed cash flows is used to determine the value attributed to the equity index feature. The inputs used in determining the fair value include policyholder behavior (lapses and withdrawals), near-term equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. As a result of our assumptions for policyholder behavior and expected future interest credited being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments as Level 3. As lapses and withdrawals increase, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As expected future interest credited decreases, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As of June 30, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.
Indexed universal life embedded derivatives
We have indexed universal life insurance products where interest is credited to the policyholder’s account balance based on equity index changes. This feature is required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and

recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach where the present value of the excess cash flows above the guaranteed cash flows is used to determine the value attributed to the equity index feature. The inputs used in determining the fair value include policyholder behavior (lapses and withdrawals), near-term equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. As a result of our assumptions for policyholder behavior and expected future interest credited being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments as Level 3. As lapses and withdrawals increase, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As expected future interest credited decreases, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As of June 30, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset or liability but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period. Such activity primarily consists of purchases, sales and settlements of fixed maturity and equity securities and purchases, issuances and settlements of derivative instruments.
Issuances presented for GMWB embedded derivative liabilities are characterized as the change in fair value associated with the product fees recognized that are attributed to the embedded derivative to equal the expected future benefit costs upon issuance. Issuances for fixed index annuity and indexed universal life embedded derivative liabilities represent the amount of the premium received that is attributed to the value of the embedded derivative. Settlements of embedded derivatives are characterized as the change in fair value upon exercising the embedded derivative instrument, effectively representing a settlement of the embedded derivative instrument. We have shown these changes in fair value separately based on the classification of this activity as effectively issuing and settling the embedded derivative instrument with all remaining changes in the fair value of these embedded derivative instruments being shown separately in the category labeled “included in net (income) loss” in the tables presented above.

Assets and Liabilities Not Required to Be Carried at Fair Value
Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements at fair value are not included in the following disclosure of fair value. Such items include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, short-term investments, investment securities, separate accounts, securities held as collateral and derivative instruments. Apart from certain of our borrowings and certain marketable securities, few of the instruments are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using models. The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon available market information and judgments about the financial instruments, including estimates of the timing and amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of counterparties. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time our entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses. In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets.

The liability for policy and contract claims represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could be significant, and result in increases in reserves by an amount that could be material to our results of operations and financial condition and liquidity. In addition, loss reserves recorded on new delinquencies in our Enact segment have a high degree of estimation, particularly due to the level of uncertainty regarding whether borrowers in forbearance will ultimately cure or result in a claim payment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the favorable development of $332 million related to insured events of prior years was primarily attributable to our long-term care insurance business largely from favorable development on prior year incurred but not reported claims, favorable claim terminations mostly attributable to higher mortality and favorable experience on pending claims that did not become an active claim. These decreases were partially offset by higher reserves associated with changes to incidence and mortality experience driven by COVID-19, which we believe are temporary.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the effective tax rate of 138.5% and the associated higher percentages included in the effective tax rate reconciliation are principally due to the prior year low pre-tax income.
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA, which are tax effected at 35% as they are amortized into net investment income, in relation to higher pre-tax income in the current year.
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was mostly attributable to tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA and non-deductible expenses in relation to higher pre-tax income in the current year. The decrease was also attributable to higher tax expense related to stock-based compensation in the prior year.
U.S. GAAP generally requires an annualized effective tax rate to be used for interim reporting periods, utilizing projections of full year results. However, in certain circumstances it is appropriate to record the actual effective tax rate for the period if a reliable full year estimate cannot be made. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we elected to record the actual effective tax rate for the periods, primarily due to the sensitivity of the full year annualized effective rate in relation to small changes in projected pre-tax income.
(10) Segment Information
We have the following three operating business segments: Enact, formerly known as U.S. Mortgage Insurance; U.S. Life Insurance (which includes our long-term care insurance, life insurance and fixed annuities businesses); and Runoff (which includes the results of non-strategic products which have not been actively sold since 2011). In addition to our three operating business segments, we also have Corporate and Other activities which include debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, eliminations of inter-segment transactions and the results of other businesses that are managed outside of our operating segments, including certain international mortgage insurance businesses and discontinued operations.

We tax our businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21%. Each segment is then adjusted to reflect the unique tax attributes of that segment, such as permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other activities.
The annually-determined tax rates and adjustments to each segment’s provision for income taxes are estimates which are subject to review and could change from year to year.
We use the same accounting policies and procedures to measure segment income (loss) and assets as our consolidated net income and assets. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders.” We define adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. Gains (losses) on insurance block transactions are defined as gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of non-recourse funding obligations, early termination fees for other financing restructuring and/or resulting gains (losses) on reinsurance restructuring for certain blocks of business. We exclude net investment gains (losses) and infrequent or unusual non-operating items because we do not consider them to be related to the operating performance of our segments and Corporate and Other activities. A component of our net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to our discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. Gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions and restructuring costs are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders because, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. Infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends.
While some of these items may be significant components of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe that adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders is not a substitute for net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.

Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21% tax rate. Net investment gains (losses) are also adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we repurchased $146 million principal amount of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021 for a pre-tax loss of $4 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased $52 million and $66 million, respectively, principal amount of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes with 2021 maturity dates for a pre-tax gain of $3 million and $4 million, respectively. In January 2020, we paid a pre-tax make-whole expense of $9 million related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020 and Rivermont Life Insurance Company I, our indirect wholly-owned special purpose consolidated captive insurance subsidiary, early redeemed all of its $315 million outstanding non-recourse funding obligations originally due in 2050 resulting in a pre-tax loss of $4 million from the write-off of deferred borrowing costs. These transactions were excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) as they relate to gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt.
We recorded a pre-tax expense of $5 million and $26 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $1 million and $2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, related to restructuring costs as we continue to evaluate and appropriately size our organizational needs and expenses. There were no infrequent or unusual items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) during the periods presented.

(11) Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Litigation and Regulatory Matters
We face the risk of litigation and regulatory investigations and actions in the ordinary course of operating our businesses, including the risk of class action lawsuits. Our pending legal and regulatory actions include proceedings specific to us and others generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which we operate. In our insurance operations, we are, have been, or may become subject to class actions and individual suits alleging, among other things, issues relating to sales or underwriting practices, increases to in-force long-term care insurance premiums, payment of contingent or other sales commissions, claims payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, product administration, additional premium charges for premiums paid on a periodic basis, denial or delay of benefits, charging excessive or impermissible fees on products, recommending unsuitable products to customers, our pricing structures and business practices in our mortgage insurance business, such as captive reinsurance arrangements with lenders and contract underwriting services, violations of the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act of 1974 or related state anti-inducement laws, and mortgage insurance policy rescissions and curtailments, and breaching fiduciary or other duties to

customers, including but not limited to breach of customer information. Plaintiffs in class action and other lawsuits against us may seek very large or indeterminate amounts which may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. In our investment-related operations, we are subject to litigation involving commercial disputes with counterparties. We are also subject to litigation arising out of our general business activities such as our contractual and employment relationships, post-closing obligations associated with previous dispositions and securities lawsuits. In addition, we are also subject to various regulatory inquiries, such as information requests, subpoenas, books and record examinations and market conduct and financial examinations from state, federal and international regulators and other authorities. A substantial legal liability or a significant regulatory action against us could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if we ultimately prevail in the litigation, regulatory action or investigation, we could suffer significant reputational harm, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
In January 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a shareholder derivative suit filed by International Union of Operating Engineers Local No. 478 Pension Fund, Richard L. Salberg and David Pinkoski in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case was captioned
Int’l Union of Operating Engineers Local No. 478 Pension Fund, et al v. McInerney, et al
. In February 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a second shareholder derivative suit filed by Martin Cohen in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case was captioned
Cohen v. McInerney, et al
. On February 23, 2016, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware consolidated these derivative suits under the caption
Genworth Financial, Inc. Consolidated Derivative Litigation
. On March 28, 2016, plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties concerning Genworth’s long-term care insurance reserves and concerning Genworth’s former Australian mortgage insurance business, including our plans for an IPO of the business and seeks unspecified damages, costs, attorneys’ fees and such equitable relief as the Court may deem proper. The amended consolidated complaint also added Genworth’s then current chief financial officer as a defendant, based on alleged conduct in her former capacity as Genworth’s controller and principal accounting officer. We moved to dismiss the consolidated action on May 27, 2016. Thereafter, plaintiffs filed a substantially similar second amended complaint which we moved to dismiss on September 16, 2016. The motion is fully briefed and awaiting disposition by the Court. The action was stayed pending the outcome of the proposed China Oceanwide transaction. On January 14, 2021, the parties submitted a joint letter to the Court requesting that the action remain stayed until April 15, 2021, or until the closing or termination of the merger in the event the merger closed or was terminated prior to April 15, 2021. On April 6, 2021, Genworth Financial terminated the proposed China Oceanwide transaction, thereby lifting the stay. In June 2021, the parties submitted a supplemental briefing on our motion to dismiss, which is now fully briefed and awaiting disposition by the Court. We intend to vigorously defend this action.
In October 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then current chief financial officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a shareholder derivative suit filed by Esther Chopp in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case is captioned
Chopp v. McInerney, et al
. The complaint alleges that Genworth’s board of directors wrongfully refused plaintiff’s demand to commence litigation on behalf of Genworth and asserts claims for breaches of fiduciary duties, waste, contribution and indemnification, and unjust enrichment concerning Genworth’s long-term care insurance reserves and concerning Genworth’s former Australian mortgage insurance business, including our plans for an IPO of the business, and seeks unspecified

On April 6, 2021, Genworth Financial terminated the proposed China Oceanwide transaction, thereby lifting the stay. We intend to vigorously defend this action.
In September 2018, Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company (“GLAIC”), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned
TVPX ARX INC., as Securities Intermediary for Consolidated Wealth Management, LTD. on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. Plaintiff alleges unlawful and excessive cost of insurance charges were imposed on policyholders. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, alleging that Genworth improperly considered non-mortality factors when calculating cost of insurance rates and failed to decrease cost of insurance charges in light of improved expectations of future mortality, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages, costs, and equitable relief. On October 29, 2018, we filed a motion to enjoin the case in the Middle District of Georgia, and a motion to dismiss and motion to stay in the Eastern District of Virginia. We moved to enjoin the prosecution of the Eastern District of Virginia action on the basis that it involves claims released in a prior nationwide class action settlement (the “McBride settlement”) that was approved by the Middle District of Georgia. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on November 13, 2018. On December 6, 2018, we moved the Middle District of Georgia for leave to file our counterclaim, which alleges that plaintiff breached the covenant not to sue contained in the prior settlement agreement by filing its current action. On March 15, 2019, the Middle District of Georgia granted our motion to enjoin and denied our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. As such, plaintiff is enjoined from pursuing its class action in the Eastern District of Virginia. On March 29, 2019, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of its appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit from the order granting our motion to enjoin. On March 29, 2019, we filed our notice of cross-appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of our cross-appeal to the Eleventh Circuit from the portion of the order denying our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. On April 8, 2019, the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed the case without prejudice, with leave for plaintiff to refile an amended complaint only if a final appellate Court decision vacates the injunction and reverses the Middle District of Georgia’s opinion. On May 21, 2019, plaintiff filed its appeal and memorandum in support in the Eleventh Circuit. We filed our response to plaintiff’s appeal memorandum on July 3, 2019. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral argument on plaintiff’s appeal and our cross-appeal on April 21, 2020. On May 26, 2020, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the Middle District of Georgia’s order enjoining Plaintiff’s class action and remanded the case back to the Middle District of Georgia for further factual development as to whether Genworth has altered how it calculates or charges cost of insurance since the McBride settlement. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals did not reach a decision on Genworth’s counterclaim. On June 30, 2021, we filed in the Middle District of Georgia our renewed motion to enforce the class action settlement and release, and renewed our motion for leave to file a counterclaim. We intend to continue to vigorously defend the dismissal of this action.
In September 2018, Genworth Financial, Genworth Holdings, Genworth North America Corporation, Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) and Genworth Life Insurance Company (“GLIC”) were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware captioned
Richard F. Burkhart, William E. Kelly, Richard S. Lavery, Thomas R. Pratt, Gerald Green, individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly situated v. Genworth et al
. Plaintiffs allege that GLIC paid dividends to its parent and engaged in certain reinsurance transactions causing it to maintain inadequate capital capable of meeting its obligations to GLIC policyholders and agents. The complaint alleges causes of

action for intentional fraudulent transfer and constructive fraudulent transfer, and seeks injunctive relief. We moved to dismiss this action in December 2018. On January 29, 2019, plaintiffs exercised their right to amend their complaint. On March 12, 2019, we moved to dismiss plaintiffs’ amended complaint. On April 26, 2019, plaintiffs filed a memorandum in opposition to our motion to dismiss, which we replied to on June 14, 2019. On August 7, 2019, plaintiffs filed a motion seeking to prevent proceeds that GFIH expected to receive from the then planned sale of its shares in Genworth MI Canada Inc. (“Genworth Canada”) from being transferred out of GFIH. On September 11, 2019, plaintiffs filed a renewed motion seeking the same relief from their August 7, 2019 motion with an exception that allowed GFIH to transfer
 $450 million of expected proceeds from the sale of Genworth Canada through a dividend to Genworth Holdings to allow the pay-off of a senior secured term loan facility dated March 7, 2018 among Genworth Holdings as the borrower, GFIH as the limited guarantor and the lending parties thereto. Oral arguments on our motion to dismiss and plaintiffs’ motion occurred on October 21, 2019, and plaintiffs’ motion was denied. On January 31, 2020, the Court granted in part our motion to dismiss, dismissing claims relating to $395 million in dividends GLIC paid to its parent from 2012 to 2014 (out of the $410 million in total dividends subject to plaintiffs’ claims). The Court denied the balance of the motion to dismiss leaving a claim relating to $15 million in dividends and unquantified claims relating to the 2016 termination of a reinsurance transaction. On March 27, 2020, we filed our answer to plaintiffs’ amended complaint. On May 26, 2021, the plaintiffs filed a second amended and supplemental class action complaint adding additional factual allegations and three new causes of action. On July 26, 2021, we moved to dismiss the three new causes of action and answered the balance of the second amended and supplemental class action complaint. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
On April 6, 2020, GLAIC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, captioned
Brighton Trustees, LLC, on behalf of and as trustee for Diamond LS Trust; and Bank of Utah, solely as securities intermediary for Diamond LS Trust; on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. On May 13, 2020, GLAIC was also named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, captioned
Ronald L. Daubenmier, individually and on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. On June 26, 2020, plaintiffs filed a consent motion to consolidate the two cases. On June 30, 2020, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia issued an order consolidating the Brighton Trustees and Daubenmier cases. On July 17, 2020, the Brighton Trustees and Daubenmier plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, alleging that GLAIC subjected policyholders to an unlawful and excessive cost of insurance increase. The consolidated complaint asserts claims for breach of contract and injunctive relief, and seeks damages in excess of $5 million. On August 31, 2020, we filed an answer to plaintiffs’ consolidated complaint. The trial is scheduled to commence on April 1, 2022. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
In January 2021, GLIC and Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned
Judy Halcom, Hugh Penson, Harold Cherry, and Richard Landino, individually, and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life Insurance Company and Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York
. Plaintiffs seek to represent long-term care insurance policyholders, alleging that the defendants made misleading and inadequate disclosures regarding premium increases for long-term care insurance policies. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, conversion, and declaratory and injunctive relief, and seeks damages in excess of $5 
million. The trial is scheduled to commence on June 1, 2022. On June 18, 2021, following two days of mediation, the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle this matter on a nationwide basis. The parties will need to enter into a definitive settlement agreement, file for approval of the settlement with the Court and have the Court approve the settlement in order to finalize the settlement of this matter. No assurance can be given that a final settlement will be reached. If we enter into a settlement agreement

consistent with the agreement in principle we reached on June 18, 2021, we do not anticipate the result to have a material negative impact on our results of operations or financial position. If we do not enter into a final settlement, we intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
In January 2021, GLAIC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon captioned
Patsy H. McMillan, Individually and On Behalf Of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. Plaintiff seeks to represent life insurance policyholders, alleging that GLAIC impermissibly calculated cost of insurance rates to be higher than that permitted by her policy. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, conversion, and declaratory and injunctive relief, and seeks damages in excess of $5 million. On April 5, 2021, we filed an answer to the plaintiff’s complaint. We intend to continue to vigorously defend thi
s
 action.
At this time we cannot determine or predict the ultimate outcome of any of the pending legal and regulatory matters specifically identified above or the likelihood of potential future legal and regulatory matters against us. Except as disclosed above, we are not able to provide an estimate or range of reasonably possible losses related to these matters. Therefore, we cannot ensure that the current investigations and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, it is possible that related investigations and proceedings may be commenced in the future, and we could become subject to additional unrelated investigations and lawsuits. Increased regulatory scrutiny and any resulting investigations or proceedings could result in new legal precedents and industry-wide regulations or practices that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
(b) Commitments
As of June 30, 2021, we were committed to fund $1,187 million in limited partnership investments, $58 million in U.S. commercial mortgage loan investments and $98 million in private placement investments. As of June 30, 2021, we were also committed to fund $273 million of bank loan investments which had not yet been drawn.

Lifestyle protection insurance
On December 1, 2015, we completed the sale of our lifestyle protection insurance business to AXA. In 2017, AXA sued us for damages on an indemnity in the 2015 agreement related to alleged remediation it paid to customers who purchased payment protection insurance (“PPI”). On July 20, 2020, we reached a settlement agreement related to losses incurred from mis-selling complaints on policies sold from 1970 through 2004. As part of the settlement agreement, we agreed to make payments for certain PPI mis-selling claims, along with a significant portion of future claims that are still being processed. Under the settlement agreement, we issued a secured promissory note to AXA, in which we agreed to make deferred cash payments in two installments in June 2022 and September 2022. Future claims that are still being processed will be added to the September 2022 installment payment.

In connection with the Genworth Australia sale, we made a mandatory principal payment to AXA of approximately £176 million ($245 million) in March 2021. The mandatory payment fully repaid the first installment obligation originally due in June 2022 and partially prepaid the September 2022 installment payment.
The following table presents the remaining amounts owed to AXA under the settlement agreement, which are reflected as liabilities related to discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of the periods presented:

On March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of Genworth Australia and received net proceeds of approximately AUD483 million ($370 million). The sale of Genworth Australia resulted in a mandatory principal payment of approximately £176 million ($245 million) related to our outstanding secured promissory note issued to AXA, dated as of July 20, 2020, as amended by the parties in connection with the Genworth Australia sale.
(2)
 
Amounts exclude accrued interest on the promissory note and certain other expenses. As of June 30, 2021, due principally to the mandatory payment made in connection with the Genworth Australia sale, we reduced the amount of accrued interest payable on the promissory note resulting in a reduction in the total amount owed to AXA of approximately $2 million.
An after-tax loss of $4 million and $5
million related to the settlement is included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The after-tax loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021 is comprised of foreign currency remeasurement losses and legal costs, partially offset by derivative hedge gains associated with foreign currency forward contracts entered into to mitigate our exposure to the installment payments made in British Pounds. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded

(Unaudited)
 
an after-tax loss from discontinued operations of $520 million related to the settlement. In connection with our prepayment of the promissory note, interest now accrues at a fixed rate of
 2.75% and is due quarterly.
To secure our obligation under the amended promissory note, we granted a 19.9% security interest in the outstanding common stock of Enact Holdings to AXA. AXA does not have the right to sell or repledge the collateral and is not entitled to any voting rights. The collateral will be released back to us upon full repayment of the promissory note. Accordingly, the collateral arrangement has no impact on our consolidated financial statements. In the event AXA recovers amounts from third parties related to the mis-selling losses, including from the distributor responsible for the sale of the policies, we have certain rights to share in those recoveries to recoup payments for the underlying mis-selling losses. As of June 30, 2021, we have not recorded any amounts associated with recoveries from third parties.
The promissory note is also subject to certain mandatory prepayments upon the occurrence of:
 
   
the consummation of certain qualifying debt transactions in which total gross proceeds of at least $750 million are raised;
 
   
the consummation of certain qualifying equity issuances or dispositions with respect to Enact Holdings, or any of our subsidiaries, in which total net cash proceeds of at least $475 million are raised;
 
   
certain asset dispositions of Enact Holdings;
 
   
transactions involving a change of control of Genworth; and
 
   
receipt of dividends and sale proceeds from Enact Holdings above certain threshold amounts.
The promissory note also contains certain negative and affirmative covenants, restrictions imposed on the collateral, representations and warranties and customary events of default.
In addition to the promissory note, we also have an unrelated liability that is owed to AXA associated with underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a $4 million after-tax loss due to an adjustment to the underwriting losses. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the balance of the liability is $4 million and $16 million, respectively, and is included as liabilities related to discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the second quarter of 2021, we reached a settlement with AXA and made a cash payment of approximately €15 million ($18 million) for the amounts owed related to the underwriting losses. The remaining amount accrued as of June 30, 2021 represents our best estimate of amounts owed for a tax gross up associated with the underwriting losses.
We have established our current best estimates for future claims that are still being processed under the settlement agreement, as well as for a tax gross up related to underwriting losses and other expenses; however, there may be future adjustments to these estimates. If amounts are different from our estimates, it could result in an adjustment to our liabilities and an additional amount reflected in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

(“AXA”) settlement and related restrictions; continued availability of capital and financing; future adverse rating agency actions against us or Enact Holdings, including with respect to rating downgrades or potential downgrades or being put on review for potential downgrade, all of which could have adverse implications, including with respect to key business relationships, product offerings, business results of operations, financial condition and capital needs, strategic plans, collateral obligations and availability and terms of hedging, reinsurance and borrowings; defaults by counterparties to reinsurance arrangements or derivative instruments; defaults or other events impacting the value of our fixed maturity securities portfolio; defaults on our commercial mortgage loans; defaults on mortgage loans or other assets underlying our investments in our mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities and volatility in performance; 
 
   
risks relating to economic, market and political conditions

regulatory and legal risks
including: extensive regulation of our businesses and changes in applicable laws and regulations (including changes to tax laws and regulations); litigation and regulatory investigations or other actions; dependence on dividends and other distributions from Enact Holdings and the inability of any subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, including as a result of the performance of our subsidiaries, heightened regulatory restrictions resulting from COVID-19, and other insurance, regulatory or corporate law restrictions; the inability to successfully seek in-force rate action increases (including increased premiums and associated benefit reductions) in our long-term care insurance business, including as a result of COVID-19; adverse changes in regulatory requirements, including risk-based capital; inability to continue to maintain the private mortgage insurer eligibility requirements (“PMIERs”); risks on Enact Holdings’ ability to pay our holding company dividends as a result of the government-sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”) amendments to PMIERs in response to COVID-19 or additional PMIERs requirements or other restrictions that the GSEs may place on the ability of Enact Holdings to pay dividends to our holding company, including additional potential PMIERs restrictions that the GSEs may impose if the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings does not occur prior to October 2021; the impact on capital levels of increased delinquencies caused by COVID-19; inability of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries to meet minimum statutory capital requirements; the influence of Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) and a small number of large mortgage lenders in the U.S. mortgage insurance market and adverse changes to the role or structure of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; adverse changes in regulations affecting our Enact segment; additional restrictions placed on our Enact segment by government and government-owned and the GSEs in connection with a new debt financing and/or sale of a percentage of our ownership interests therein; inability to continue to implement actions to mitigate the impact of statutory reserve requirements; changes in tax laws; and changes in accounting and reporting standards;

We provide additional information regarding these risks and uncertainties in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K,
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 26, 2021. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Accordingly, for the foregoing reasons, we caution you against relying on any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
Strategic Update
We continue to focus on executing our strategic plan to raise liquidity to address our future debt maturities, other near-term liabilities and financial obligations, strengthen our financial position and create long-term shareholder value, which could include returning capital to shareholders. Our plan builds on actions we have taken over the last several years to strengthen our financial position, including the sale of Genworth MI Canada Inc., our former Canada mortgage insurance business, the completion of a debt offering through Enact Holdings, the settlement agreement reached with AXA and the sale of Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia Limited (“Genworth Australia”), our former Australian mortgage insurance business in March 2021. Most recently, on July 21, 2021, Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”) early redeemed its remaining September 2021 senior notes. Subsequent to this redemption, Genworth Holdings has outstanding approximately $1.7 billion of long-term debt, with no debt maturities until August 2023. However, prior to the August 2023 debt maturity, the AXA promissory note of $344 million is due in September 2022. Our priority is to continue to reduce debt at Genworth Holdings, the issuer of our outstanding public debt, to approximately $1 billion over time.
The potential partial sale of Enact Holdings is a key component of our strategic plan; however, it is subject to various conditions and approvals, including market conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering. We also remain open to other potential strategic alternatives to address our future holding company debt maturities while maximizing the value of Enact Holdings. In assessing our strategic options, we are considering, among other factors, the level of, and restrictions contained in, our existing indebtedness, tax considerations, the views of regulators and rating agencies, and the performance and prospects of our businesses. In addition, we have taken steps, and may take additional actions to align our expense structure with our reduced business activities. Expense reduction initiatives completed to date in 2021 are anticipated to result in annualized savings of approximately $50 million.

Ongoing Priorities
Stabilizing our U.S. life insurance businesses continues to be one of our long-term goals. We will continue to execute this objective primarily through our multi-year long-term care insurance in-force rate action plan. Premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our legacy long-term care insurance policies are critical to the business. We continue to manage our U.S. life insurance businesses on a standalone basis and are planning for a new long-term care insurance joint venture in the United States. Going forward, the U.S. life insurance businesses will continue to rely on their consolidated statutory capital, significant claim and future policy benefit reserves, prudent management of its in-force blocks and actuarially justified in-force rate actions to satisfy obligations to its policyholders. Our U.S. life insurance business continued to make strong progress on its multi-year rate action plan, receiving approvals of approximately $206 million of incremental annual premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2021. In aggregate, we estimate that we have achieved approximately $15.5 billion, on a net present value basis, of approved in-force rate increases since 2012. We continue to work closely with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) and state regulators to demonstrate the broad-based need for actuarially justified rate increases in order to pay future claims.
Executive Summary of Financial Results
Below is an executive summary of our consolidated financial results for the periods indicated. Amounts below are net of taxes, unless otherwise indicated. After-tax amounts assume a tax rate of 21%.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2020
 
   
Net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was $240 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $441 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was $194 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an adjusted operating loss of $23 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
 
   
Our Enact segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $135 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an adjusted operating loss of $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The change to income in the current year from a loss in the prior year was primarily from higher losses in the prior year from higher new delinquencies driven by a significant increase in borrower forbearance and unfavorable reserve adjustments as a result of COVID-19. The increase was partially offset by higher operating costs and interest expense associated with Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $71 million in the current year compared to an adjusted operating loss of $5 million in the prior year.
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $98 million and $48 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was primarily from higher reduced benefits in the current year from in-force rate actions approved and implemented, which included a net favorable impact from policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. The increase was also attributable to higher investment income and favorable development on incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims, partially offset by a decrease in claim terminations driven mostly by lower mortality in the current year.
 
   
Our life insurance business had an adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $40 million and $81 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the loss was mainly attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period and from lower lapses primarily associated with our large 20-year term life insurance block written at the end of 2000 as it entered its post-level premium period. These

decreases were partially offset by higher mortality in our term universal life insurance product and a DAC impairment of $13 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year.
 
   
Our fixed annuities business had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $13 million and $28 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was mainly attributable to lower mortality in our single premium immediate annuities and higher reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by a less favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year.
 
   
Our Runoff segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $15 million and $24 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was predominantly due to lower investment income and less favorable equity market performance in the current year.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities had an adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $27 million and $39 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the loss was primarily related to lower interest expense in the current year.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
 
   
Net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was $427 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $507 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was $362 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an adjusted operating loss of $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
 
   
Our Enact segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $261 million and $145 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to higher losses in the prior year from higher new delinquencies driven by a significant increase in borrower forbearance and higher unfavorable reserve adjustments as a result of COVID-19. The increase was also driven by higher premiums mainly attributable to higher insurance in-force, partially offset by higher ceded premiums, continued lapse of older higher priced policies and a decrease in single premium policy cancellations in the current year. These increases were partially offset by interest expense associated with Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020 and higher operating costs in the current year.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $133 million in the current year compared to an adjusted operating loss of $75 million in the prior year.
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $193 million and $49 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was primarily from favorable development on IBNR claims, higher investment income and higher premiums and reduced benefits of $75 million from in-force rate actions approved and implemented, which included a net favorable impact from policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. We also increased reserves by $66 million in the current year compared to $29 million in the prior year to account for changes to incidence and mortality experience driven by COVID-19, which we believe are temporary.
 
   
Our life insurance business had an adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $103 million and $158 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the loss was mainly attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level

Table of Contents
 
premium period and from lower lapses primarily associated with our large 20-year term life insurance block written at the end of 2000 as it entered its post-level premium period. These decreases were partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products and DAC impairments of $30 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year. 
 
   
Our fixed annuities business had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $43 million and $34 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was mainly attributable to lower reserves and DAC amortization in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuities.
 
   
Our Runoff segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $27 million and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was primarily due to favorable equity market and interest rate performance, partially offset by lower investment income in the current year.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities had an adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $59 million and $84 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the loss was primarily related to lower interest expense and operating costs in the current year.
Other Significant Developments
The periods under review include, among others, the following significant developments.
Enact
 
   
Incurred losses.
Incurred losses were $30 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $198 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. New primary delinquencies of 6,862 contributed to $30 million of loss expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The prior year included $170 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 and additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies. In addition, existing reserves were strengthened by $28 million in the prior year primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity.
 
   
Borrower forbearance.
Approximately 45% of our primary new delinquencies in the second quarter of 2021 were subject to a forbearance plan as compared to less than 5% in recent quarters prior to COVID-19. Servicer reported forbearance slowed meaningfully beginning in June 2020 and ended the second quarter of 2021 with approximately 4% or 36,271 of our active primary policies reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 59% were reported as delinquent.
 
   
PMIERs compliance.
As of June 30, 2021, our Enact segment had estimated available assets of $4,926 million against $2,985 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to available assets of $4,769 million against $3,005 million net required assets as of March 31, 2021. The sufficiency ratio as of June 30, 2021 was 165% or $1,941 million above the published PMIERs requirements, compared to 159% or $1,764 million above the published PMIERs requirements as of March 31, 2021. PMIERs sufficiency is based on the published requirements applicable to private mortgage insurers and does not give effect to the GSE restrictions imposed on our Enact segment. The increase in the PMIERs sufficiency was driven in part by the completion of an insurance linked notes transaction, which added $303 million of additional PMIERs capital credit as of June 30, 2021, elevated lapse driven by prevailing low interest rates, business cash flows and lower delinquencies, partially offset by elevated new insurance written. In addition, elevated lapse continued to drive an acceleration of the amortization of our reinsurance transactions executed prior to the second quarter of 2021, which caused a reduction

in PMIERs capital credit in the second quarter of 2021. Our PMIERs required assets as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain non-performing loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided $760 million of benefit to our June 30, 2021 PMIERs required assets compared to $1,012 million of benefit as of March 31, 2021. See “Item 2—Enact segment—Trends and conditions” for additional details.
 
   
Persistency.
Primary persistency in our Enact segment increased to 63% during the second quarter of 2021 compared to 59% during the second quarter of 2020 but remained below historic norms. The increase in persistency was primarily driven by a modest increase in interest rates and a decline in the percentage of our in-force policies with mortgage rates above current interest rates. Suppressed persistency has impacted business performance trends in several ways including, but not limited to, offsetting insurance in-force growth from new insurance written, elevated single premium policy cancellations, accelerating the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions reducing their associated PMIERs capital credit in the current year and shifting the concentration of our primary insurance in-force to more recent years of policy origination.

In-force rate actions in our long-term care insurance business.
As part of our strategy for our long-term care insurance business, we have been implementing, and expect to continue to pursue, significant premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on older generation blocks of business in order to bring those blocks closer to a break-even point over time and reduce the strain on earnings and capital. We are also requesting premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on newer blocks of business, as needed, some of which may be significant, to help bring their loss ratios back towards their original pricing. For all of these in-force rate action filings, we received 74 filing approvals from 29 states during the six months ended June 30, 2021, representing a weighted-average increase of 43% on approximately $477 million in annualized in-force premiums, or approximately $206 million of incremental annual premiums. We also submitted 34 new filings in 14 states during the six months ended June 30, 2021 on approximately $163 million in annualized in-force premiums.
 
   
Profits followed by losses in our long-term care insurance business.
With respect to our long-term care insurance block, excluding the acquired block, our future projections indicate we have projected profits in earlier periods followed by projected losses in later periods. As a result of this pattern of projected profits followed by projected losses, we will ratably accrue additional future policy benefit reserves over the profitable periods, currently expected to be through 2031, by the amounts necessary to offset estimated losses during the periods that follow. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total amount accrued for profits followed by losses was $957 million and $625 million, respectively.

Mandatory payment of the AXA promissory note.
In connection with the Genworth Australia sale, we made a mandatory principal payment to AXA of approximately £176 million ($245 million) in March 2021. The mandatory payment fully repaid the first installment obligation originally due to AXA in June 2022 and partially prepaid the September 2022 installment payment. AXA and Genworth amended certain mandatory prepayment provisions of the promissory note permitting Genworth to retain a greater amount of the Genworth Australia sale proceeds. As of June 30, 2021, the remaining amount of the promissory note, including expected future claims, is $344 million and is due in September 2022. As a result of the mandatory payment, interest on the promissory note was retroactively reduced and now accrues at a rate of 2.75%. See note 13 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Dispositions
 
   
Sale of our Australian mortgage insurance business.
On March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of our entire ownership interest of approximately 52% in Genworth Australia through an underwritten agreement. We sold our approximately 214.3 million shares of Genworth Australia for AUD2.28 per share and received approximately AUD483 million ($370 million) in net cash proceeds. In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized an after-tax loss on sale of $3 million. See note 13 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Financial Strength Ratings
On May 20, 2021, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) affirmed the “Baa3” (Adequate) financial strength rating of Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corporation (“GMICO”), our principal U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, and revised its outlook from positive to review for upgrade. In addition, Moody’s affirmed the “Caa1” (Speculative) credit rating of Genworth Holdings’ senior unsecured debt and revised its outlook from developing to review for upgrade.
On May 4, 2021, Standard & Poor’s Financial Services, LLC (“S&P”) modified its outlook for both Genworth and GMICO from Negative Outlook to Creditwatch Positive. The ratings of Genworth and GMICO were unchanged, although S&P indicated that they would likely raise the ratings if Genworth is successful in the execution of its strategic plan, including the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings.

Consolidated
General Trends and Conditions
The stability of both the financial markets and global economies in which we operate impacts the sales, revenue growth and profitability trends of our businesses as well as the value of assets and liabilities.
Varied levels of economic performance, coupled with uncertain economic outlooks, changes in government policy, global trade, regulatory and tax reforms, and other changes in market conditions, such as inflation, will continue to influence investment and spending decisions by consumers and businesses as they adjust their consumption, debt, capital and risk profiles in response to these conditions, including as a result of COVID-19. These trends change as investor confidence in the markets and the outlook for some consumers and businesses shift. As a result, our sales, revenues and profitability trends of certain insurance and investment products as well as the value of assets and liabilities could be impacted going forward. In particular, factors such as the length of COVID-19 and the speed of the economic recovery, government responses to COVID-19 (such as government

stimulus), government spending, monetary policies (such as reducing quantitative easing), the volatility and strength of the capital markets, changes in tax policy and/or in U.S. tax legislation, inflation, international trade and the impact of global financial regulation reform will continue to affect economic and business outlooks, level of interest rates, consumer confidence and consumer behavior moving forward.
U.S. Treasury markets fluctuated during the second quarter of 2021 due in part to the expected shifts in the U.S. Federal Reserve’s monetary policy and from inflation concerns, including whether inflation is only transitory until the U.S. economy fully re-opens and supply chains return to full capacity. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations, except insofar as inflation may affect current and/or future interest rates and U.S. Federal Reserve policy. In addition, continued inflation can impact healthcare costs and the cost of care in our long-term care insurance business. Historically, our long-term care insurance business has experienced higher claim severity due in part to the rising costs of healthcare.
The U.S. and international governments, the U.S. Federal Reserve, other central banks and other legislative and regulatory bodies have taken certain actions in response to COVID-19 to support the global economy and capital markets. These policies and actions have generally been supportive to the worldwide economy, however, in spite of these supportive policies the U.S. economy contracted in 2020 and the world economy fell into a recession. Gross domestic product rebounded sharply in the first quarter of 2021 due in part to the continued rollout of the vaccine. This growth continued into the second quarter of 2021 albeit at a more moderate pace. Most economic forecasts predict a healthy full year 2021 U.S. economy with strong gross domestic product growth, however, given the risk of virus re-emergence due to variants, the slower than expected vaccination uptake and the potential for future actions to be taken to mitigate the risk of a virus re-emergence, it is possible actual economic results could differ materially from forecasts. In the event this occurs, our full year 2021 financial results would be adversely impacted. Moreover, we continue to closely monitor the operating results and financial position of our Enact segment, particularly related to new delinquency trends and whether borrowers in a forbearance plan ultimately cure or result in a claim payment. If these trends move in an unfavorable direction in contrast to our current projections, our financial position and results of operations could be adversely impacted.

We define “NM” as not meaningful for increases or decreases greater than 200%.
Premiums.
Premiums are primarily earned on insurance products for mortgage, long-term care, life insurance, single premium immediate annuities and structured settlements with life contingencies.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $9 million. Our long-term care insurance business decreased $1 million primarily driven by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status, mostly offset by $24 million of increased premiums in the current year from
in-force
rate actions

approved and implemented. Our life insurance business decreased $8 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
 
   
Our Enact segment was flat as higher insurance
in-force
was offset by a decrease in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product, higher ceded premiums and continued lapse of our in-force portfolio in the current year as older higher priced policies continued to lapse in the current low interest rate environment.
Net investment income.
Net investment income represents the income earned on our investments. For discussion of the change in net investment income, see the comparison for this line item under “—Investments and Derivative Instruments.”
Net investment gains (losses).
Net investment gains (losses) consist primarily of realized gains and losses from the sale of our investments, credit losses, unrealized and realized gains and losses from our equity and trading securities and derivative instruments. For discussion of the change in net investment gains (losses), see the comparison for this line item under “—Investments and Derivative Instruments.”
Policy fees and other income.
Policy fees and other income consists primarily of fees assessed against policyholder and contractholder account values, surrender charges, cost of insurance assessed on universal and term universal life insurance policies, advisory and administration service fees assessed on investment contractholder account values, broker/dealer commission revenues and other fees. The increase was largely attributable to our Runoff segment principally from higher fee income driven mostly by an increase in the average account values in our variable annuity products in the current year.
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves.
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves consist primarily of claim costs incurred related to mortgage insurance products and benefits paid and reserve activity related to current claims and future policy benefits on insurance and investment products for long-term care, life insurance, structured settlements and single premium immediate annuities with life contingencies.
 
   
Our Enact segment decreased $198 million largely from lower new delinquencies in the current year and unfavorable reserve adjustments in the prior year as a result of
COVID-19.
The prior year included $170 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19
compared to $30 million of losses from new delinquencies in the current year. In the prior year, we also recorded additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies and strengthened existing reserves by $28 million primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $84 million. Our long-term care insurance business decreased $54 million primarily due to a more favorable impact of $139 million from reduced benefits in the current year related to
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement, and from favorable development on IBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block, a decrease in claim terminations driven mostly by lower mortality in the current year and higher incremental reserves of $62 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses in the current year. In the prior year, we assumed that
COVID-19
temporarily decreased the number of new submitted claims, and accordingly IBNR reserves were strengthened by $37 million. Our life insurance business decreased $44 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our term universal life insurance product in the current year compared to the prior year. Our fixed annuities business increased $14 million principally from lower mortality in our single premium immediate annuities, less favorable equity market performance and unfavorable interest rate changes in the current year.

Table of Contents
Interest credited.
Interest credited represents interest credited on behalf of policyholder and contractholder general account balances. The decrease was largely related to our U.S. Life Insurance segment primarily related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businesses, which decreased $4 million and $6 million, respectively. The decrease was largely related to a decline in the average account values and from lower crediting rates in the current year.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, represent costs and expenses related to the acquisition and ongoing maintenance of insurance and investment contracts, including commissions, policy issuance expenses and other underwriting and general operating costs. These costs and expenses are net of amounts that are capitalized and deferred, which are costs and expenses that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance policies and investment contracts, such as first-year commissions in excess of ultimate renewal commissions and other policy issuance expenses.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment increased $72 million predominantly related to our long-term care insurance business principally related to higher premium taxes, commissions and other expenses of $73 million associated with our
in-force
rate action plan, which included expenses related to policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year.
 
   
Our Enact segment increased $16 million primarily attributable to higher operating costs, expenses associated with strategic transaction preparations and restructuring costs in the current year.
 
   
Our Runoff segment increased $3 million mainly from higher commissions in our variable annuity products in the current year.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities increased $3 million principally due to a gain in the prior year related to the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in 2021 that did not recur.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles.
Amortization of DAC and intangibles consists primarily of the amortization of acquisition costs that are capitalized, PVFP and capitalized software.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $6 million. Our long-term care insurance business increased $6 million principally from policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year. Our life insurance business decreased $10 million principally from prior year lapses in our large
20-year
term life insurance block written in 2000, partially offset by a DAC impairment of $16 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year.
 
   
Our Runoff segment increased $5 million primarily from higher DAC amortization in our variable annuity products due to less favorable equity market performance in the current year.
Interest expense.
Interest expense represents interest related to our borrowings that are incurred at Genworth Holdings or subsidiaries and interest expense related to the Tax Matters Agreement and certain reinsurance arrangements being accounted for as deposits.
 
   
Our Enact segment increased $12 million in the current year related to Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities decreased $11 million largely driven by the redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in February 2021 and the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate decreased to 23.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from 29.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), which are tax effected at 35% as they are amortized into net investment income, in relation to higher
pre-tax
income in the current year.

rate actions approved and implemented, partially offset by policy terminations and policies entering

Policy fees and other income
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment increased $7 million primarily driven by our life insurance business from higher ceded reinsurance costs in the prior year that did not recur.
 
   
Our Runoff segment increased $3 million principally from higher fee income driven mostly by an increase in the average account values in our variable annuity products in the current year.
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $226 million. Our long-term care insurance business decreased $153 million primarily due to a more favorable impact of $147 million from reduced benefits in the current year related to
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement, and from favorable development on IBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block and higher incremental reserves of $195 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses. In addition, we increased claim reserves by $52 million reflecting our assumption that
COVID-19
accelerated our mortality experience on the most vulnerable claimants, leaving the remaining claim population less likely to terminate compared to the
pre-pandemic
average population. Our life insurance business decreased $64 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products in the current year compared to the prior year. Our fixed annuities business decreased $9 million principally from lower reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year compared to an unfavorable market in the prior year.
 
   
Our Enact segment decreased $162 million largely from higher new delinquencies and unfavorable reserve adjustments in the prior year as a result of
COVID-19.
The prior year included $197 million of losses from new delinquencies, $170 million of which were driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19.
In the prior year, we also recorded additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies and strengthened existing reserves by $28 million primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. These decreases were partially offset by current year reserve strengthening of $10 million primarily due to our expectation that
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date.
 
   
Our Runoff segment decreased $14 million primarily attributable to lower guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”) reserves in our variable annuity products due to favorable equity market and interest rate performance in the current year.
Interest credited.
The decrease was largely related to our U.S. Life Insurance segment primarily related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businesses, which decreased $7 million and $13 million, respectively. The decrease was largely related to a decline in the average account values and from lower crediting rates in the current year.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment increased $113 million predominantly related to our long-term care insurance business principally related to higher premium taxes, commissions and other expenses of $99 million associated with our
in-force
rate action plan, which included expenses related to policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. The increase was also attributable to restructuring costs of $16 million in the current year.
 
   
Our Enact segment increased $23 million primarily attributable to higher operating costs, expenses associated with strategic transaction preparations and restructuring costs in the current year.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities decreased $7 million mainly driven by lower operating costs and a make-whole premium of $9 million in the prior year related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020, partially offset by restructuring costs of $8 million and a $4 million loss in the current year related to the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes compared to a $4 million gain in the prior year.
 
   
Our Runoff segment increased $3 million mainly from higher commissions in our variable annuity products in the current year.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $25 million. Our long-term care insurance business increased $6 million principally from policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year. Our life insurance business decreased $13 million principally from prior year lapses in our large
20-year
term life insurance block written in 2000, partially offset by DAC impairments of $38 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year. Our fixed annuities business decreased $18 million primarily related to lower DAC amortization reflecting the impact of favorable market changes in the current year.
 
   
Our Runoff segment decreased $7 million mainly related to lower DAC amortization in our variable annuity products principally from favorable equity market performance in the current year.
Interest expense
 
   
Our Enact segment increased $25 million related to Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020.
 
   
Corporate and Other activities decreased $19 million largely driven by the redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in February 2021, the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021 and the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes in the prior year originally scheduled to mature in June 2020.
 
   
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $5 million due to our life insurance business principally related to the early redemption of
non-recourse
funding obligations in the prior year.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate decreased to 24.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from 138.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was mostly attributable to tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA and
non-deductible
expenses in relation to higher
pre-tax
income in the current year. The decrease was also attributable to higher tax expense related to stock-based compensation in the prior year.

Use of
non-Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) measures
Reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
We use
non-GAAP
financial measures entitled “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders” and “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share.” Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share is derived from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. We define adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the
after-tax
effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items. Gains (losses) on insurance block transactions are defined as gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of
non-recourse
funding obligations, early termination fees for other financing restructuring and/or resulting gains (losses) on reinsurance restructuring for certain blocks of business. We exclude net investment gains (losses) and infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items because we do not consider them to be related to the operating performance of our segments and Corporate and Other activities. A component of our net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to our discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. Gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions and restructuring costs are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders because, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. Infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends.
While some of these items may be significant components of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe that adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, including adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders and adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis are not substitutes for net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders or net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.
Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21% tax rate. Net investment gains (losses) are also adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, net investment (gains) losses were adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves of $(4) million and $(15) million, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we repurchased $146 million principal amount of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021 for a
pre-tax
loss of $4 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased $52 million and $66 million, respectively, principal amount of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes with 2021 maturity dates for a
pre-tax
gain of $3 million and $4 million, respectively. In January 2020, we paid a
pre-tax
make-whole expense of $9 million related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020 and Rivermont Life Insurance Company I, our indirect wholly-owned special purpose consolidated captive insurance subsidiary, early redeemed all of its $315 million outstanding
non-recourse
funding obligations originally due in 2050 resulting in a
pre-tax
loss of $4 million from the
write-off
of deferred borrowing costs. These transactions were excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) as they relate to gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt.
We recorded a
pre-tax
expense of $5 million and $26 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $1 million and $2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, related to restructuring costs as we continue to evaluate and appropriately size our organizational needs and expenses. There were no infrequent or unusual items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) during the periods presented.

Under applicable accounting guidance, companies in a loss position are required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share. Therefore, as a result of our loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2020, we were required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding as the inclusion of shares for stock options, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights of 6.3 million would have been antidilutive to the calculation. If we had not incurred a loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2020, dilutive potential weighted-average common shares outstanding would have been 511.1 million.
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding reflect the effects of potentially dilutive securities including stock options, restricted stock units and other equity-based compensation.
Results of Operations and Selected Financial and Operating Performance Measures by Segment
Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. See note 10 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements” for a summary of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for our segments and Corporate and Other activities.
We tax our businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21%. Each segment is then adjusted to reflect the unique tax attributes of that segment, such as permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other activities.

Table of Contents
The annually-determined tax rates and adjustments to each segment’s provision for income taxes are estimates which are subject to review and could change from year to year.
Management’s discussion and analysis by segment contains selected operating performance measures including “sales” and “insurance
in-force”
or “risk
in-force”
which are commonly used in the insurance industry as measures of operating performance.
Management regularly monitors and reports sales metrics as a measure of volume of new business generated in a period. Sales refer to new insurance written for mortgage insurance products included in our Enact segment. We consider new insurance written to be a measure of our operating performance because it represents a measure of new sales of insurance policies during a specified period, rather than a measure of our revenues or profitability during that period.
Management regularly monitors and reports insurance
in-force
and risk
in-force
for our Enact segment. Insurance
in-force
is a measure of the aggregate unpaid principal balance as of the respective reporting date for loans we insure. Risk
in-force
is based on the coverage percentage applied to the estimated current outstanding loan balance. We consider insurance
in-force
and risk
in-force
to be measures of our operating performance because they represent measures of the size of our business at a specific date which will generate revenues and profits in a future period, rather than measures of our revenues or profitability during that period.
Management also regularly monitors and reports a loss ratio for our businesses. For our U.S. mortgage insurance business included in our Enact segment, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. For our long-term care insurance business included in our U.S. Life Insurance segment, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in reserves less tabular interest on reserves less loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. We consider the loss ratio to be a measure of underwriting performance in these businesses and helps to enhance the understanding of the operating performance of our businesses.
These operating performance measures enable us to compare our operating performance across periods without regard to revenues or profitability related to policies or contracts sold in prior periods or from investments or other sources.
Enact segment
Trends and conditions
Results of our Enact segment are affected primarily by the following factors: competitor actions; unemployment or underemployment levels; other economic and housing market trends, including interest rates, home prices, the number of first-time homebuyers, and mortgage origination volume mix and practices; the levels and aging of mortgage delinquencies; the effect of seasonal variations; the inventory of unsold homes; loan modification and other servicing efforts; and litigation, among other items. References to “Enact” included herein “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Enact segment” are, unless the context otherwise requires, to our Enact segment.
The United States economy and consumer confidence improved in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2021. The unemployment rate was elevated at 5.9% in June 2021 compared to the
pre-pandemic
level of 3.5% in February 2020 but has decreased from a peak of 14.8% in April 2020. Even after the continued recovery in the second quarter of 2021, the number of unemployed Americans stands at approximately 9 million, which is 4 million higher than in February 2020. Among the unemployed, those on temporary layoff continued to decrease to 2 million from a peak of 18 million in April 2020, and the number of permanent job losses decreased to approximately 3 million. In addition, the number of long term unemployed over 26 weeks has begun to decrease since March 2021, falling to approximately 4 million in June 2021. Specific to housing finance, mortgage origination activity remained robust in the second quarter of 2021 fueled by
 
92

Table of Contents
refinance activity and strong home sales. Refinance activity remained robust but decreased compared to the second quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 as mortgage interest rates modestly increased. The purchase market remained strong, but sales of previously owned homes were down 14% in May 2021 after reaching a post-2006 peak in the fourth quarter of 2020. Total unsold inventory of single-family homes remains low at a
2.5-month
supply as of May 2021, which continues to drive home prices higher, increasing our average loan amount on new insurance written. While interest rates modestly rose during the second quarter of 2021, they remained at historically low levels and served as an offset to rising prices to allow continued affordability for borrowers. The pandemic continued to affect our financial results in the second quarter of 2021 but to a lesser extent than in the first quarter of 2021 as we experienced elevated, but declining, servicer reported forbearance while new delinquencies during the second quarter of 2021 returned to
pre-pandemic
levels.
The impact of
COVID-19
on our future business results is difficult to predict. We have performed and have periodically revised our scenario planning to help us better understand and tailor our actions to help mitigate the potential adverse effects of the pandemic on our financial results. While our current financial results to date fall within the range of our current scenarios, the ultimate outcomes and impact on Enact will depend on the spread and length of the pandemic. Of similar importance will be the amount, type and duration of government stimulus and its impact on borrowers, regulatory and government actions to support housing and the economy, uptake of the vaccine, spread mitigating actions to curb a potential increase in cases, the possible resurgence of the virus and variants in the future and the shape of economic recovery. It is difficult to predict how long borrowers will need to use forbearance to assist them during the pandemic. Given the length of time current forbearance plans may be extended, the resolution of a delinquency in a plan, whether it ultimately results in a cure or a claim, is difficult to estimate and may not be known for several quarters, if not longer. We continue to monitor
COVID-19
developments and regulatory and government actions. However, given the specific risks to Enact, it is possible the pandemic could have a significant adverse impact on our future results of operations and financial condition.
Specific to housing finance, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act requires mortgage servicers to provide up to 180 days of deferred or reduced payments (forbearance) for borrowers with a federally backed mortgage loan who assert they have experienced a financial hardship related to
COVID-19.
Forbearance may be extended for an additional 180 days up to a year in total or shortened at the request of the borrower. Since the introduction of the CARES Act, the GSEs as well as most servicers of
non-federally
backed mortgage loans have extended similar relief to their respective portfolios of loans. In addition, on February 25, 2021, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) announced that borrowers with a mortgage backed by the GSEs who are in an active
COVID-19
forbearance plan as of February 28, 2021 may request up to two additional forbearance extensions for a maximum of 18 months of total forbearance relief. Separately, on June 24, 2021, the FHFA announced an extension until July 31, 2021 of the foreclosure moratorium that was set to expire on June 30, 2021 for mortgages that are purchased by the GSEs. In addition, the CARES Act provides that furnishers of credit reporting information, including servicers, should continue to report a loan as current to credit reporting agencies if the loan is subject to a payment accommodation, such as forbearance, so long as the borrower abides by the terms of the accommodation. Servicer reported forbearance slowed meaningfully beginning in June 2020 and ended the second quarter of 2021 with approximately 4% or 36,271 of our active primary policies reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 59% were reported as delinquent. It is difficult to predict the future level of reported forbearance and how many of the policies in a forbearance plan that remain current on their monthly mortgage payment will go delinquent.
On June 28, 2021 the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) issued a final rule to amend Regulation X of the Real Estate Settlement Protection Act effective August 31, 2021 to assist mortgage borrowers affected by the
COVID-19
emergency. The final rule establishes temporary procedural changes that permit a loss mitigation review prior to a servicer’s first notice or foreclosure filing on certain mortgages. On June 29, 2021, the FHFA announced that servicers are immediately prohibited from making a first notice or filing for foreclosure for mortgages backed by the GSEs that would be prohibited by the CFPB Regulation X Final Rule before it takes effect on August 31, 2021. These announcements generally prohibit servicers from starting foreclosures on mortgages purchased by the GSEs until after December 31, 2021.

Market penetration and eventual market size are affected in part by actions that impact housing or housing finance policy taken by the GSEs and the U.S. government, including but not limited to, the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and the FHFA. In the past, these actions have included announced changes, or potential changes, to underwriting standards, including changes to the GSEs’ automated underwriting systems, FHA pricing, GSE guaranty fees, loan limits and alternative products. On December 17, 2020, the FHFA published the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework Final Rule, which includes significantly higher regulatory capital requirements for the GSEs over current requirements. Higher GSE capital requirements could ultimately lead to increased costs to borrowers of GSE loans, which in turn could shift the market away from the GSEs to the FHA or lender portfolios. Such a shift could result in a smaller market for private mortgage insurance. In conjunction with preparing to release the GSEs from conservatorship, on January 14, 2021, the FHFA and the Treasury Department agreed to amend the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements (“PSPAs”) between the Treasury Department and each of the GSEs to increase the amount of capital each GSE may retain. In addition, among other things, the PSPAs limit the number of certain mortgages the GSEs may acquire with two or more prescribed risk factors, including certain mortgages with combined
loan-to-value
ratios above 90%. Because these limits were developed based on the current market makeup, we do not expect any material impact to the private mortgage market in the near term. As previously disclosed, the CFPB’s Qualified Mortgage (“QM”) regulations include a temporary category (the “QM Patch”) for mortgages that comply with certain prohibitions and limitations and meet the GSE underwriting and product guidelines. Mortgages that meet certain requirements are deemed to be QMs until the earlier of the time in which the GSEs exit the FHFA conservatorship or the mandatory compliance date of the final amendments to the CFPB’s rule defining what constitutes a QM (“QM Rule”). The CFPB also announced it was reconsidering the QM Rule and would also propose a rule to delay the July 1, 2021 mandatory compliance date of the amended QM Rule. On April 27, 2021, the CFPB promulgated a final rule delaying the mandatory compliance date of the amended QM Rule until October 1, 2022. As provided under the final rule, the prior 43%
debt-to-income-based
QM Rule definition, the new price-based average prime offer rate (“APOR”) definition and the QM Patch will all remain available to lenders for loan applications received prior to October 1, 2022. However, on April 8, 2021, the GSEs issued notices stating that due to the requirements of the PSPAs they would only acquire loans that meet the new price-based APOR definition set forth under the amended QM Rule for applications received on or after July 1, 2021. We believe that loans which previously qualified under the 43% debt-to-income-based QM Rule definition and the QM Patch will continue to qualify under the new price-based APOR definition and therefore we expect little impact from this change. For more information on the previously disclosed regulation, see “Item 1—Business—Regulation—U.S. Insurance Regulation” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
For more information about the potential future impact, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Changes to the role of the GSEs or to the charters or business practices of the GSEs, including actions or decisions to decrease or discontinue the use of mortgage insurance, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations or significantly impact our business,” and “—Risk Factors—The amount of mortgage insurance we write could decline significantly if alternatives to private mortgage insurance are used or lower coverage levels of mortgage insurance are selected” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
Estimated mortgage origination volume increased during the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily from higher estimated purchase origination volumes, slightly offset by a modest estimated decrease in refinance originations. The estimated private mortgage insurance available market increase was attributable to higher purchase originations.
Our primary persistency increased to 63% during the second quarter of 2021 compared to 59% during the second quarter of 2020 but remained below historic norms. The increase in persistency was primarily driven by a modest increase in interest rates and a decline in the percentage of our in-force policies with mortgage rates above current interest rates. Suppressed persistency has impacted business performance trends in several ways including, but not limited to, offsetting insurance
in-force
growth from new insurance written, elevated single premium policy cancellations, accelerating the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions reducing their associated PMIERs capital credit in the current year and shifting the concentration of our primary insurance
in-force
to more recent years of policy origination. As of June 30, 2021, our primary insurance
in-force
has less
 
94

Table of Contents
than 10% concentration in 2014 and prior book years. Our 2005 through 2008 book year concentration is approximately 4%. In contrast, our 2020 book year represents 38% of our primary insurance
in-force
concentration while our 2021 book year is 23% as of June 30, 2021.
New insurance written of $26.7 billion in the second quarter of 2021 decreased 6% compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to our lower estimated market share, partially offset by higher purchase originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market in the current year. The U.S. private mortgage insurance industry is highly competitive. Our market share is influenced by the execution of our go to market strategy, including but not limited to, pricing competitiveness relative to our peers and our selective participation in forward commitment transactions. Our market share remains impacted by the negative ratings differential relative to our competitors, concerns expressed about Genworth’s financial condition and the execution of its strategic plans. We continue to manage the quality of new business through pricing and our underwriting guidelines, which we modify from time to time when circumstances warrant. The market conditions, including the mortgage insurance pricing environment, are within our risk/reward appetite and we continue to write new business at returns we view as attractive.
Net earned premiums were flat in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily as growth in our insurance
in-force
was offset by a decrease in single premium policy cancellations, higher ceded premiums and continued lapse of our older higher priced policies. The total number of delinquent loans has declined from the
COVID-19
peak in the second quarter of 2020 but remains elevated compared to
pre-COVID-19
levels. During this time and consistent with prior years, servicers continued the practice of remitting premiums during the early stages of default. Additionally, we have a business practice of refunding the post-delinquent premiums to the insured party if the delinquent loan goes to claim. We record a liability and a reduction to net earned premiums for the post-delinquent premiums we expect to refund. The post-delinquent premium liability recorded during 2020 and the first half of 2021 associated with delinquent loans was not significant to the change in earned premiums for those periods as a result of the high concentration of delinquencies being subject to a servicer reported forbearance plan and the lower estimated rate at which delinquencies go to claim (“claim rates”) for these loans. The post-default premium liability increased by $2 million in the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to continued premium remittances on
COVID-19
delinquencies, partially offset by the continued decline in overall delinquencies. The total liability for all delinquencies was $13 million as of June 30, 2021. As a result of
COVID-19,
certain state insurance regulators required or requested the provision of grace periods of varying lengths to insureds in the event of
non-payment
of premium. Regulators differed greatly in their approaches but generally focused on the avoidance of cancellation of coverage for
non-payment.
While most of these requirements and requests have lapsed, it is possible that some or all of them could be
re-issued
in the event of declarations of new states of emergency that might result from worsening pandemic conditions. We currently comply with all state regulatory requirements. If timely payment is not made, future premiums could decrease and the certificate of insurance could be subject to cancellation after 60 days, or such longer time as required under applicable law.
Our loss reserves continue to be negatively impacted by
COVID-19.
Borrowers who have experienced a financial hardship including, but not limited to, the loss of income due to the closing of a business or the loss of a job have taken advantage of available forbearance programs and payment deferral options. During the peak of the pandemic, we experienced elevated new delinquencies which may ultimately cure at a higher rate than traditional delinquencies. Unlike a hurricane where the natural disaster occurs at a point in time and the rebuild starts soon after,
COVID-19
brought ongoing displacement to the mortgage insurance market, making it more difficult to determine the effectiveness of forbearance and the resulting claim rates for new delinquencies in forbearance plans. Given this difference, our prior hurricane experience was leveraged as one of many considerations in the establishment of an appropriate claim rate estimate for new delinquencies in forbearance plans that have emerged as a result of
COVID-19.
Severity of loss on loans that do go to claim may be positively impacted by home price appreciation, however, may be negatively impacted by the extended forbearance timeline, the associated elevated expenses, the higher loan amount of the recent new delinquencies and if current home price appreciation reverses

in the future. For loans insured on or after October 1, 2014, our mortgage insurance policies limit the number of months of unpaid interest and associated expenses that are included in the mortgage insurance claim amount to a maximum of 36 months.
Our loss ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was 12% as compared to 94% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was largely from lower new delinquencies from the improving economy. New primary delinquencies of 6,862 contributed $30 million of loss expense in the second quarter of 2021. In determining the loss expense estimate for the quarter, considerations were given to forbearance and non-forbearance delinquencies and the ongoing economic impact due to the pandemic. We incurred $170 million of losses from new delinquencies in the second quarter of 2020 driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19.
In the prior year, we also recorded additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies and strengthened existing reserves by $28 million primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. Approximately 45% of our primary new delinquencies in the second quarter of 2021 were subject to a forbearance plan as compared to less than 5% in recent quarters prior to
COVID-19.
As of June 30, 2021, GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio under the current regulatory framework as established under North Carolina law and enforced by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”), GMICO’s domestic insurance regulator, was approximately 12.0:1, compared with a
risk-to-capital
ratio of 11.9:1 and 12.3:1 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio remains below the NCDOI’s maximum
risk-to-capital
ratio of 25:1. North Carolina’s calculation of
risk-to-capital
excludes the
risk-in-force
for delinquent loans given the established loss reserves against all delinquencies. As a result, we do not expect any immediate, material pressure to GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio in the short term as a result of
COVID-19.
GMICO’s ongoing
risk-to-capital
ratio will depend principally on the magnitude of future losses incurred by GMICO, the effectiveness of ongoing loss mitigation activities, new business volume and profitability, the amount of policy lapses and the amount of additional capital that is generated or distributed by the business or capital support provided.
Under PMIERs, we are subject to operational and financial requirements that private mortgage insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans that are purchased by the GSEs. On June 29, 2020, the GSEs issued the “PMIERs Amendment.” In September 2020, the GSEs issued an amended and restated version of the PMIERs Amendment that became effective retroactively on June 30, 2020 and included a new reporting requirement that became effective on December 31, 2020. On December 4, 2020, the GSEs issued a revised and restated version of the PMIERs Amendment that revised and replaced the version issued in September 2020. The December 4, 2020 version extended the application of reduced PMIERs capital factors to each non-performing loan that has an initial missed monthly payment occurring on or after March 1, 2020 and prior to April 1, 2021 and extended the capital preservation period from March 31, 2021 to June 30, 2021. On June 30, 2021, the GSEs issued a revised and restated version of the PMIERs Amendment that replaced the version issued on December 4, 2020. The June 30, 2021 version allows loans that enter a forbearance plan on or after April 1, 2021 to remain eligible for extended application of the reduced PMIERs capital factor for as long as the loan remains in forbearance. The June 30, 2021 version also extends the capital preservation period through December 31, 2021 with certain exceptions, as described below.
The PMIERs Amendment implemented both permanent and temporary revisions to PMIERs. For loans that became non-performing due to a COVID-19 hardship, PMIERs was temporarily amended with respect to each non-performing loan that (i) has an initial missed monthly payment occurring on or after March 1, 2020 and prior to April 1, 2021 or (ii) is subject to a forbearance plan granted in response to a financial hardship related to COVID-19, the terms of which are materially consistent with terms of forbearance plans offered by the GSEs. The risk-based required asset amount factor for the non-performing loan will be the greater of (a) the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a performing loan were it not delinquent, and (b) the product of a 0.30 multiplier and the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a non-performing loan. In the case of (i) above, absent the loan being subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above, the 0.30 multiplier will be

applicable for no longer than three calendar months beginning with the month in which the loan became a non-performing loan due to having missed two monthly payments. Loans subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above include those that are either in a repayment plan or loan modification trial period following the forbearance plan unless reported to the approved insurer that the loan is no longer in such forbearance plan, repayment plan, or loan modification trial period. The PMIERs Amendment also imposed temporary capital preservation provisions through December 31, 2021 that require an approved insurer to meet certain PMIERs minimum required assets buffers (150% in the third quarter of 2021 and 115% in the fourth quarter of 2021) or otherwise obtain prior written GSE approval before paying any dividends, pledging or transferring assets to an affiliate or entering into any new, or altering any existing, arrangements under tax sharing and intercompany expense-sharing agreements, even if such insurer had a surplus of available assets. In addition, the PMIERs Amendment imposes permanent revisions to the risk-based required asset amount factor for non-performing loans for properties located in future Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) Declared Major Disaster Areas eligible for individual assistance.
In September 2020, subsequent to the issuance of Enact Holdings’ senior notes due in 2025, the GSEs imposed certain restrictions (the “GSE Restrictions”) with respect to capital on Enact. In May 2021, in connection with their conditional approval of the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings, the GSEs confirmed the GSE Restrictions will remain in effect until the following collective (“GSE Conditions”) are met: (a) approval of GMICO’s plan to secure additional capital, if needed, (b) GMICO obtains “BBB+”/“Baa1” (or higher) rating from S&P, Moody’s or Fitch Ratings, Inc. for two consecutive quarters and (c) Genworth achieves certain financial metrics. Prior to the satisfaction of the GSE Conditions, the GSE Restrictions require:
 
   
GMICO to maintain 115% of PMIERs minimum required assets through 2021, 120% during 2022 and 125% thereafter;
 
   
Enact Holdings to retain $300 million of its holding company cash that can be drawn down exclusively for its debt service or to contribute to GMICO to meet their regulatory capital needs including PMIERs; and
 
   
written approval must be received from the GSEs prior to any additional debt issuance by either GMICO or Enact Holdings.
Until the GSE Conditions imposed in connection with the GSE Restrictions are met, Enact Holdings’ liquidity must not fall below 13.5% of its outstanding debt. The GSEs’ conditional approval of the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings remains in effect through September 30, 2021, however, if the potential partial sale is not completed prior to October 2021, the GSEs will likely reassess the GSE Restrictions. In addition, the GSEs could recommend revisions to the GSE Restrictions based upon a variety of factors, including the outcome of the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings.
The GSEs informed us that a potential partial sale resulting in Genworth owning 70% or less of Enact Holdings by year end 2021 would delay each step up of the PMIERs minimum required asset requirements listed in the first bullet above by one calendar year. In addition, Fannie Mae agreed to reconsider the GSE Restrictions if Genworth were to own 50% or less of Enact Holdings at any point prior to their expiration, however, they reserve the right to impose additional PMIERs requirements if the potential partial sale is not completed prior to October 2021. We will continue to assess our options, including the aforementioned potential partial sales outlined by the GSEs. However, our current plans do not include a potential partial sale in which Genworth owns less than 80% of Enact Holdings.
As of June 30, 2021, Enact had estimated available assets of $4,926 million against $2,985 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to available assets of $4,769 million against $3,005 million net required assets as of March 31, 2021. The sufficiency ratio as of June 30, 2021 was 165% or $1,941 million above the published PMIERs requirements, compared to 159% or $1,764 million above the published PMIERs requirements as of March 31, 2021. PMIERs sufficiency is based on the published requirements applicable to

private mortgage insurers and does not give effect to the GSE Restrictions imposed on Enact. The increase in the PMIERs sufficiency was driven in part by the completion of an insurance linked notes transaction, which added $303 million of additional PMIERs capital credit as of June 30, 2021, elevated lapse driven by prevailing low interest rates, business cash flows and lower delinquencies, partially offset by elevated new insurance written. In addition, elevated lapse continued to drive an acceleration of the amortization of our reinsurance transactions executed prior to the second quarter of 2021, which caused a reduction in PMIERs capital credit in the second quarter of 2021. Our PMIERs required assets as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain non-performing loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided $760 million of benefit to our June 30, 2021 PMIERs required assets compared to $1,012 million of benefit as of March 31, 2021. These amounts are gross of any incremental reinsurance benefit from the elimination of the 0.30 multiplier.
On April 16, 2021, Enact obtained $303 million of fully collateralized excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re 2021-2 Ltd. on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from September 2020 through December 2020. Credit risk transfer transactions provided an aggregate of approximately $1,406 million of PMIERs capital credit as of June 30, 2021. Enact may execute future credit risk transfer transactions to maintain a prudent level of financial flexibility in excess of the PMIERs capital requirements in response to potential changes in performance and PMIERs requirements over time.
Subsequent to the second quarter of 2021, GMICO received approval from the NCDOI for a dividend of $200 million to be distributed at year-end 2021. We believe this is an important milestone as we work to restart the return of capital from Enact. This approval, coupled with Enact’s business performance and the recently published changes to the GSE capital preservation rules, provides us incremental confidence for a potential 2021 dividend. However, if our potential partial sale of Enact Holdings is not completed prior to October 2021, the GSEs will likely reconsider the PMIERs capital requirements applicable to Enact which could in turn affect Enact’s ability to execute future dividends. Any future dividend is subject to market conditions, business performance, business and regulatory approvals, including the GSEs’ approval related to the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings and, if occurring following a successful partial sale of Enact Holdings, would include distributions to minority shareholders.

Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
The change to adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in the current year from adjusted operating loss in the prior year was primarily attributable to higher losses in the prior year from higher new delinquencies driven by a significant increase in borrower forbearance and unfavorable reserve adjustments as a result of COVID-19. The increase was partially offset by higher operating costs and interest expense associated with Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020.
Revenues
Premiums were flat as higher insurance in-force was offset by a decrease in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product, higher ceded premiums and continued lapse of our in-force portfolio in the current year as older higher priced policies continued to lapse in the current low interest rate environment.
Net investment income increased primarily from higher average invested assets, partially offset by lower investment yields in the current year.

Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders increased primarily attributable to higher losses in the prior year from higher new delinquencies driven by a significant increase in borrower forbearance and higher unfavorable reserve adjustments as a result of COVID-19. The increase was also driven by higher premiums mainly attributable to higher insurance in-force, partially offset by higher ceded premiums, continued lapse of older higher priced policies and a decrease in single premium policy cancellations in the current year. These increases were partially offset by interest expense associated with Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020 and higher operating costs in the current year.
Revenues
Premiums increased mainly attributable to higher insurance in-force, partially offset by higher ceded premiums, continued lapse of older higher priced policies due to the current low interest rate environment and a decrease in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product in the current year.
Net investment income increased primarily from higher income from bond calls and higher average invested assets in the current year.
Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves decreased largely from higher new delinquencies and unfavorable reserve adjustments in the prior year as a result of COVID-19. The prior year included $197 million of losses from new delinquencies, $170 million of which were driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19. In the prior year, we also recorded additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies and strengthened existing reserves by $28 million primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. These decreases were partially offset by current year reserve strengthening of $10 million primarily due to our expectation that pre-COVID-19 delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, increased primarily attributable to higher operating costs, expenses associated with strategic transaction preparations and restructuring costs in the current year.
Interest expense in the current year relates to Enact Holdings’ senior notes issued in August 2020.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate was 21.2% and 21.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, consistent with the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate.
Enact selected operating performance measures
Primary Mortgage Insurance
Substantially all of our policies are primary mortgage insurance, which provides protection on individual loans at specified coverage percentages. Primary mortgage insurance is placed on individual loans at the time of origination and are typically delivered to us on a loan by loan basis. Primary mortgage insurance can also be delivered to us on an aggregated basis, whereby each mortgage in a given loan portfolio is insured in a single transaction after the point of origination.
Pool Mortgage Insurance
Pool mortgage insurance transactions provide coverage on a finite set of individual loans identified by the pool policy. Pool policies contain coverage percentages and provisions limiting the insurer’s obligation to pay

claims until a threshold amount is reached (known as a “deductible”) or capping the insurer’s potential aggregate liability for claims payments (known as a “stop loss”) or a combination of both provisions. Pool mortgage insurance is typically used to provide additional credit enhancement for certain secondary market mortgage transactions.

Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force
Primary insurance in-force increased largely from new insurance written, partially offset by lapses and cancellations as we experienced lower persistency during the current year. Primary persistency was 59% and 66% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Total risk in-force increased primarily as a result of higher primary insurance in-force.
New insurance written
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, new insurance written decreased primarily due to our lower estimated market share, partially offset by higher purchase originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market in the current year. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, new insurance written increased primarily due to higher mortgage purchase and refinancing originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market, partially offset by our lower estimated market share in the current year.
Net premiums written
Net premiums written for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased primarily from higher average primary insurance in-force, partially offset by higher ceded premiums in the current year.

The loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. The expense ratio (net earned premiums) is the ratio of general expenses to net earned premiums. In our business, general expenses consist of acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, and amortization of DAC and intangibles.
The loss ratio decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 largely from lower new delinquencies in the current year and unfavorable reserve adjustments in the prior year as a result of COVID-19. The second quarter of 2020 included $170 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 compared to $30 million of losses from new delinquencies in the second quarter of 2021. In the prior year, we also recorded additional reserves of $28 million for IBNR delinquencies and strengthened existing reserves by $28 million primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was also partially offset by reserve strengthening of $10 million in the current year primarily due to our expectation that pre-COVID-19 delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date.
The expense ratio (net earned premiums) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 increased mainly driven by higher operating costs in the current year. Expenses associated with strategic transaction preparations and restructuring costs increased our expense ratio by approximately two percentage points for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the expense ratio (net earned premiums) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was partially offset by higher net earned premiums in the current year.

Direct primary case reserves exclude loss adjustment expenses, IBNR and reinsurance reserves.
The total increase in reserves as a percentage of risk in-force as of June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by higher reserves in relation to a decrease in delinquent risk in-force. Delinquent risk in-force decreased mainly from lower total delinquencies as cures outpaced new delinquencies in the first half of 2021, while reserves increased primarily from new delinquencies and reserve strengthening in the current year. As of June 30, 2021, we have experienced an increase in loans that are delinquent for 12 months or more due in large part to borrowers entering a forbearance plan over a year ago driven by COVID-19. We estimated the loss reserve for COVID-19 related delinquencies by applying a claim rate estimate which considers the emergence of cures on forbearance and non-forbearance delinquencies and the ongoing economic impact due to the pandemic. The large volume of additional forbearance delinquencies moving to 12 or more payments in default combined with lower loss expectations on delinquencies subject to a forbearance plan drove the decrease in reserves as a percentage of risk in-force in the 12 or more payments in default category as of June 30, 2021. Forbearance plans may be extended up to 18 months, therefore, it is possible we could experience elevated delinquencies in this aged category for the remainder of 2021. Resolution of a delinquency in a forbearance plan, whether it ultimately results in a cure or a claim, is difficult to estimate and may not be known for several quarters, if not longer.

Loss reserves in policy years 2005 through 2008 are outsized compared to their representation of risk in-force. The size of these policy years at origination combined with the significant decline in home prices led to significant losses in policy years prior to 2009. Although uncertainty remains with respect to the ultimate losses we will experience on these policy years, they have become a smaller percentage of our total mortgage insurance portfolio. The largest portion of loss reserves has shifted to newer book years as a result of COVID-19 given their significant representation of risk in-force. As of June 30, 2021, our 2014 and newer policy years represented approximately 95% of our primary risk in-force and 70% of our total direct primary case reserves.
U.S. Life Insurance segment
COVID-19
The most significant impact in our U.S. life insurance businesses from
COVID-19
in 2021 and 2020 was related to continued elevated mortality. Our long-term care insurance products were favorably impacted by higher mortality in the current year. Conversely, higher mortality rates had unfavorable impacts in our life insurance products and we have observed minimal impact from
COVID-19
in our fixed annuity products. Our products were also negatively impacted by the continued low interest rate environment, particularly as it related to loss recognition testing and asset adequacy analysis in the fourth quarter of 2020.
In our long-term care insurance products, we have experienced higher mortality during
COVID-19
which has had a favorable impact on claim reserves and our operating results. Although it is not our practice to track cause of death for policyholders and claimants, we believe the favorable results of our long-term care insurance business in the first quarter of 2021 and during 2020 were likely impacted by
COVID-19,
but we expect the impacts to be temporary. We believe
COVID-19
has accelerated mortality on our most vulnerable claimants, which may reduce mortality rates in future periods as the impacts of the pandemic subside. Therefore, in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, we strengthened our claims reserve to adjust the mortality assumption by $91 million and $67 million, respectively, to account for the lower future claim termination rates expected on remaining claims. However, in the second quarter of 2021, we experienced lower mortality as the impacts of COVID-19 lessened and we did not establish any additional claims reserve but reduced a portion of
 
107

Table of Contents
the COVID-19 mortality adjustment, leaving a cumulative balance of $143 million as of June 30, 2021. As COVID-19 continues to develop, short-term mortality experience may fluctuate, and we would increase or decrease the COVID-19 mortality adjustment accordingly.
We have also experienced lower new claims incidence in our long-term care insurance business during COVID-19; however, we do not expect this to be permanent but rather a temporary reduction while
shelter-in-place
and social distancing protocols are in effect and that claims incidence experience will ultimately resemble previous trends. As a result, we have strengthened our IBNR claim reserves during COVID-19 by $140 million through June 30, 2021. Although new active claim volumes in our long-term care insurance business increased gradually in the first half of 2021, near term incidence may continue to be impacted by
COVID-19.
We continue to utilize virtual assessments to assess eligibility for benefits while
in-person
assessments have been temporarily discontinued during
COVID-19.
We are reviewing the options to resume
in-person
assessments, with appropriate protocols in place, while having virtual assessments available for those policyholders who would prefer this option. For claimants without the technology to perform virtual assessments, we have alternate options for gathering information. Our long-term care insurance benefit utilization will be monitored for impact, although it is too early to tell the magnitude and/or direction of that impact.
Additionally, our U.S. life insurance companies are dependent on the approval of actuarially justified
in-force
rate actions in our long-term care insurance business, including those rate actions which were previously filed and are currently pending review and approval. We have experienced some delays and could experience additional delays in receiving approvals of these rate actions during
COVID-19,
although we did not have a significant impact on our financial results in the first half of 2021 or during 2020 as a result of these delays.
We have continued to provide customer service to our policyholders during this uncertain time and are available to address questions or concerns regarding their policies. We are continually assessing our operational processes and monitoring potential impacts to morbidity due to
COVID-19.
We continue to actively monitor cash and highly liquid investment positions in each of our U.S. life insurance companies against operating targets that are designed to ensure that we will have the cash necessary to meet our obligations as they come due. The targets are set based on stress scenarios that have the effect of increasing our expected cash outflows and decreasing our expected cash inflows. Liquidity risk is assessed by comparing subsidiary cash to potential cash needs under a stressed liquidity scenario. The stressed scenario reflects potential policyholder surrenders, variability of normal operating cash flow and potential increase in collateral requirements under our cleared derivative program.
While the ongoing impact of
COVID-19
is very difficult to predict, the related outcomes and impact on the U.S. life insurance business will depend on the length and severity of the pandemic and shape of the economic recovery. Future declines in interest rates as well as equity market volatility as a result of
COVID-19
would increase reserves and capital requirements in our U.S. life insurance business. For sensitivities related to interest rates, lapses and mortality on our U.S. life insurance products, see “Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
We will continue to monitor
COVID-19
impacts and evaluate all of our assumptions that may need updating as a result of longer-term trends related to the pandemic.
Trends and conditions
Results of our U.S. life insurance businesses depend significantly upon the extent to which our actual future experience is consistent with assumptions and methodologies we have used in calculating our reserves. Many factors can affect the results of our U.S. life insurance businesses. Because these factors are not known in advance, change over time, are difficult to accurately predict and are inherently uncertain, we cannot determine with precision the ultimate amounts we will pay for actual claims or the timing of those payments. We will
 
108

Table of Contents
continue to monitor our experience and assumptions closely and make changes to our assumptions and methodologies, as appropriate, for our U.S. life insurance products. Even small changes in assumptions or small deviations of actual experience from assumptions can have, and in the past have had, material impacts on our DAC amortization, reserve levels, results of operations and financial condition.
Our liability for policy and contract claims is reviewed quarterly and we conduct a detailed review of our claim reserve assumptions and methodologies for our long-term care insurance business annually typically during the third or fourth quarter of each year. Our liability for future policy benefits is reviewed at least annually as a part of our loss recognition testing typically performed in the third or fourth quarter of each year. As part of loss recognition testing, we also review the recoverability of DAC and PVFP at least annually. In addition, we perform cash flow testing separately for each of our U.S. life insurance companies on a statutory accounting basis annually. We will complete our annual review of long-term care insurance claim reserve assumptions in the fourth quarter of 2021, and we are monitoring emerging experience particularly in mortality and benefit utilization. While this work is ongoing, current trends do not indicate a need to strengthen the claims reserve as assumptions appear to be holding up in the aggregate. We also plan to complete our loss recognition and cash flow testing as well as assumption reviews for all of our U.S. life insurance products in the fourth quarter of 2021. For our 2021 assumption updates, we are generally not including data from 2020 in setting any long-term assumptions, as we do not yet have sufficient information around longer term effects of the pandemic. Our review of long-term care insurance assumptions, as part of our testing in the fourth quarter of 2021, will include mortality, benefit utilization, interest rates and in-force rate actions, among other assumptions. Any assumption changes in our long-term care insurance business that result in pressure to our margin will be assessed for inclusion in our in-force rate action plan. In our life insurance business, we will also review mortality, persistency and interest rates, among other assumptions, in the fourth quarter of 2021. As we complete our review, we are monitoring our elevated mortality experience, including older age mortality as well as mortality improvement, in our life insurance products. Potential changes in our assumptions could negatively impact earnings of our life insurance business.
Results of our U.S. life insurance businesses are also impacted by interest rates. Low interest rates put pressure on the profitability and returns of these businesses as higher yielding investments mature and are replaced with lower-yielding investments. We seek to manage the impact of low interest rates through asset-liability management as well as interest rate hedging strategies for a portion of our long-term care insurance product cash flows. Additionally, certain products have implicit and explicit rate guarantees or optionality that are significantly impacted by changes in interest rates. For a further discussion of the impact of interest rates on our U.S. life insurance businesses, see “Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
The risk-based capital (“RBC”) of each of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries exceeded the level of RBC that would require any of them to take or become subject to any corrective action in their respective domiciliary state as of December 31, 2020. However, the RBC ratio of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries has been negatively impacted over the past few years by increases in our statutory reserves, including results of Actuarial Guideline 38, cash flow testing and assumption reviews particularly in our long-term care insurance business. However, in the first half of 2021, the RBC ratio increased from 2020 as a result of higher earnings in our long-term care insurance business mainly driven by claim experience, premium rate increases and benefit reductions, including policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement, as well as in our variable annuity products from favorable interest rates and equity markets. We continue to face challenges in our principal life insurance subsidiaries, particularly those subsidiaries that rely heavily on
in-force
rate actions as a source of earnings and capital. We may see variability in statutory results and a decline in the RBC ratios of these subsidiaries given the time lag between the approval of
in-force
rate actions versus when the benefits from the
in-force
rate actions (including increased premiums and associated benefit reductions) are fully realized in our financial results. Future declines in the RBC ratio of our life insurance subsidiaries could result in heightened supervision and regulatory action.

Long-term care insurance
The long-term profitability of our long-term care insurance business depends upon how our actual experience compares with our valuation assumptions, including but not limited to morbidity, mortality and persistency. If any of our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, our reserves may be inadequate, which in the past has had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and business. Results of our long-term care insurance business are also influenced by our ability to achieve
in-force
rate actions, improve investment yields and manage expenses and reinsurance, among other factors. Changes in regulations or government programs, including long-term care insurance rate action legislation, regulation and/or practices, could also impact our long-term care insurance business either positively or negatively.
Our assumptions are sensitive to slight variability in actual experience and small changes in assumptions could result in decreases in the margin of our long-term care insurance blocks to at/or below zero in future years. To the extent, based on reviews, the margin of our long-term care insurance block, excluding the acquired block, is negative, we would be required to recognize a loss, by amortizing more DAC and/or establishing additional benefit reserves. For our acquired block of long-term care insurance, the impacts of adverse changes in assumptions would also be reflected as a loss if our margin for this block is reduced below zero by establishing additional benefit reserves. A significant decrease in our loss recognition testing margin of our long-term care insurance blocks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
As a result of the review of our claim reserves completed in prior years, we have been establishing higher claim reserves on new claims, which has negatively impacted earnings and we expect this to continue going forward. Also, average claim reserves for new claims are trending higher over time as the mix of claims continues to evolve, with an increasing number of policies with higher daily benefit amounts and higher inflation factors going on claim. In addition, although new claim counts on our older long-term care insurance blocks of business will continue to decrease as the blocks run off, we are gaining more experience on our larger new blocks of business and expect continued growth in new claims on these blocks as policyholders reach older attained ages with higher likelihood of going on claim.
Given the ongoing challenges in our long-term care insurance business, we continue pursuing initiatives to improve the risk and profitability profile of our business including: premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our
in-force
policies; managing expense levels; executing investment strategies targeting higher returns; and enhancing our financial and actuarial analytical capabilities. Executing on our multi-year long-term care insurance
in-force
rate action plan with premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our legacy long-term care insurance policies is critical to the business. For an update on
in-force
rate actions, refer to “Significant Developments—U.S. Life Insurance.”
The approval process for
in-force
rate actions and the amount and timing of the premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions approved vary by state. In certain states, the decision to approve or disapprove a rate increase can take a significant amount of time, and the approved amount may be phased in over time. After approval, insureds are provided with written notice of the increase and increases are generally applied on the insured’s next policy anniversary date. As a result, the benefits of any rate increase are not fully realized until the implementation cycle is complete and are, therefore, expected to be realized over time.
In 2019, the NAIC established the Long-Term Care Insurance (EX) Task Force to address efforts to create a national standard for reviewing and approving long-term care insurance rate increase requests. This task force is charged with developing a consistent national approach for reviewing rate increase requests that results in actuarially appropriate increases being granted by the states in a timely manner and eliminates cross-state rate subsidization, among others. The Long-Term Care Insurance (EX) Task Force is expected to provide a proposal to the Executive (EX) Committee of the NAIC before the end of 2021.

Life insurance
Results of our life insurance business are impacted primarily by mortality, persistency, investment yields, expenses, reinsurance and statutory reserve requirements, among other factors. We no longer solicit sales of traditional life insurance products; however, we continue to service our existing retained and reinsured blocks of business.
Mortality levels may deviate each period from historical trends. Overall mortality experience was higher for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to six months ended June 30, 2020, attributable in part to
COVID-19.
We have experienced higher mortality than our then-current and
priced-for
assumptions in recent years for our universal life insurance blocks. We have also been experiencing higher mortality related charges resulting from an increase in rates charged by our reinsurance partners reflecting natural block aging and higher mortality compared to expectations.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we performed our annual review of life insurance assumptions and loss recognition test. Our review focused on assumptions for interest rates, persistency and mortality, among other assumptions. As part of our review in the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded a $60 million
after-tax
benefit in our term universal and universal life insurance products primarily from favorable assumption updates. The favorable updates in our term universal life insurance product were primarily driven by a model refinement related to persistency and grace period timing. Other assumption updates mostly focused on future cost of insurance rates and long-term trends in mortality, persistency and interest rates. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we also recorded a $50 million
after-tax
charge related to universal life insurance DAC recoverability testing primarily as a result of reflecting these updated assumptions. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, we recorded
after-tax
charges of $13 million and $17 million, respectively, in our universal life insurance products in connection with DAC recoverability testing.
We also updated mortality assumptions for certain universal and term universal life insurance products as well as our term life insurance products in the fourth quarter of 2020. Our mortality experience for older ages and late-duration premium periods and conversion products is emerging. Assumption changes in our term life insurance products focused on mortality improvements during the post-level premium period based on observed trends in emerging experience. This change to the mortality assumption increased the loss recognition testing margin in our term life insurance products. We will continue to regularly review our mortality assumptions as well as all of our other assumptions in light of emerging experience. We may be required to make further adjustments in the future to our assumptions which could impact our universal and term universal life insurance reserves or our loss recognition testing results of our term life insurance products. Any further materially adverse changes to our assumptions, including mortality, persistency or interest rates, could have a materially negative impact on our results of operations, financial condition and business.
Compared to 1998 and prior years, we had a significant increase in term life insurance sales between 1999 and 2009, particularly in 1999 and 2000. The blocks of business issued since 2000 vary in size as compared to the large 1999 and 2000 blocks of business. As our large
10-
and
15-year
level premium period term life insurance policies written in 1999 and 2000 transitioned to their post-level guaranteed premium rate period, we experienced lower persistency compared to our pricing and valuation assumptions which accelerated DAC amortization in previous years. As our large
20-year
level premium period business written in 1999 entered its post-level period, we experienced higher lapses resulting in accelerated DAC amortization in 2019. This trend continued in the first quarter of 2020 for the 1999 block, as it reached the end of its level premium period. Additionally, we experienced a similar trend with the
20-year
level premium period business written in 2000 as it entered its post-level period during 2020 and into the first quarter of 2021 due to the
60-day
grace period. If lapse experience on future
10-,
15-
and
20-year
level premium period blocks emerges similar to our large
20-year
level premium period business written in 1999 and 2000, we would expect volatility in DAC amortization if persistency is lower than original assumptions, which would reduce profitability in our term life insurance products. However, going forward, given our smaller block sizes and reinsurance agreements in place, we would expect the impact to DAC amortization on policies entering the

Table of Contents
post-level period to be lower than what we experienced in 2019 and 2020. We have also taken actions to mitigate potentially unfavorable impacts through the use of reinsurance, particularly for certain term life insurance policies issued between 2001 and 2004.
We began selling term universal life insurance in late 2009, with sales peaking in 2011 prior to discontinuing sales of the product in 2012. We priced these products assuming high lapses upon expiration of the level premium period and we continue to expect those higher lapses. As our
10-year
level premium period term universal life insurance policies written in 2009 and 2010 entered their post-level premium period in late 2019 and 2020, we recorded higher reserves during the premium grace period which were released when the policies lapsed. With the model refinement implemented as part of our 2020 assumption updates, we no longer expect to see this dynamic to the same extent when term universal life insurance blocks enter their post-level period in the future.
Fixed annuities
Results of our fixed annuities business are affected primarily by investment performance, interest rate levels, the slope of the interest rate yield curve, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality, persistency and expense and commission levels. We no longer solicit sales of traditional fixed annuity products; however, we continue to service our existing retained and reinsured blocks of business.
We monitor and change crediting rates on fixed annuities on a regular basis to maintain spreads and targeted returns, if applicable. However, if interest rates remain at current levels or decrease, we could see declines in spreads which impact the margins on our products, particularly our single premium immediate annuity products. Due to the premium deficiency that existed in 2016, we have continued to monitor our single premium immediate annuity products more frequently than annually. If investment performance deteriorates or interest rates decrease or remain at the current levels for an extended period of time, we could incur additional charges in the future. The impacts of future adverse changes in our assumptions could result in the establishment of additional future policy benefit reserves and would be immediately reflected as a loss if our margin for this block is again reduced below zero. Any favorable variation would result in additional margin and higher income recognized over the remaining duration of the
in-force
block but would not have an immediate benefit to net income.
For fixed indexed annuities, equity market and interest rate performance and volatility could also result in additional gains or losses, although associated hedging activities are expected to partially mitigate these impacts.

Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
 
   
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our long-term care insurance business increased $50 million primarily from higher reduced benefits in the current year from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included a net favorable impact from policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. The increase was also attributable to higher investment income and favorable development on IBNR claims, partially offset by a decrease in claim terminations driven mostly by lower mortality in the current year.
 
   
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our life insurance business decreased $41 million mainly attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period and from lower lapses primarily associated with our large
20-year
term life insurance block written at the end of 2000 as it entered its post-level premium period. These decreases were partially offset by higher mortality in our term universal life insurance product and a DAC impairment of $13 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year.
 
   
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our fixed annuities business decreased $15 million mainly attributable to lower mortality in our single premium immediate annuities and higher reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by a less favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year.
Revenues
Premiums
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business decreased $1 million primarily driven by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status, mostly offset by $24 million of increased premiums in the current year from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented.
 
   
Our life insurance business decreased $8 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
Net investment income
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business increased $87 million largely from higher income of $80 million in the current year from limited partnerships, U.S. Government Treasury Inflation Protected Securities

(“TIPS”) and bond calls. The increase was also attributable to higher average invested assets in the current year. 
 
   
Our fixed annuities business decreased $15 million largely attributable to lower average invested assets in the current year due to block runoff.
Net investment gains (losses)
 
   
Net investment gains in our long-term care insurance business decreased $62 million principally due to net realized gains from the sale of investment securities in the prior year that did not recur, partially offset by higher unrealized gains in the current year from changes in the fair value of equity securities and from higher credit losses in the prior year.
 
   
Net investment losses in our fixed annuities business decreased $9 million primarily related to lower losses on embedded derivatives related to our fixed indexed annuity products, partially offset by lower derivative gains and higher credit losses in the current year.
Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business decreased $54 million primarily due to a more favorable impact of $139 million from reduced benefits in the current year related to
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement, and from favorable development on IBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block, a decrease in claim terminations driven mostly by lower mortality in the current year and higher incremental reserves of $62 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses in the current year. In the prior year, we assumed that
COVID-19
temporarily decreased the number of new submitted claims, and accordingly IBNR reserves were strengthened by $37 million.
 
   
Our life insurance business decreased $44 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our term universal life insurance product in the current year compared to the prior year.
 
   
Our fixed annuities business increased $14 million principally from lower mortality in our single premium immediate annuities, less favorable equity market performance and unfavorable interest rate changes in the current year.
Interest credited.
The decrease in interest credited was related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businesses largely driven by a decline in the average account values and from lower crediting rates in the current year.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals.
The increase was predominantly related to our long-term care insurance business principally related to higher premium taxes, commissions and other expenses of $73 million associated with our
in-force
rate action plan, which included expenses related to policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business increased $6 million principally from policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year.

Table of Contents
   
Our life insurance business decreased $10 million principally from prior year lapses in our large
20-year
term life insurance block written in 2000, partially offset by a DAC impairment of $16 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate was 25.5% and 26.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to higher tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA, which are tax effected at 35% as they are amortized into net investment income, in relation to higher
pre-tax
income in the current year.

Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
 
   
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our long-term care insurance business increased $144 million primarily from favorable development on IBNR claims, higher investment income and higher premiums and reduced benefits of $75 million from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included a net favorable impact from policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. We also increased reserves by $66 million in the current year compared to $29 million in the prior year to account for changes to incidence and mortality experience driven by
COVID-19,
which we believe are temporary.
 
   
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our life insurance business decreased $55 million mainly attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period and from lower lapses primarily associated with our large
20-year
term life insurance block written at the end of 2000 as it entered its post-level premium period. These decreases were partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products and DAC impairments of $30 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year.
 
   
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our fixed annuities business increased $9 million mainly attributable to lower reserves and DAC amortization in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuities.
Revenues
Premiums
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business increased $3 million largely from $47 million of increased premiums in the current year from

Our life insurance business decreased $16 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
Net investment income
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business increased $133 million largely from higher income of $114 million in the current year from limited partnerships, TIPS and bond calls. The increase was also attributable to higher average invested assets in the current year.

Our life insurance business decreased $6 million principally related to unfavorable prepayment speed adjustments on mortgage-backed securities in the current year.
 
   
Our fixed annuities business decreased $35 million largely attributable to lower average invested assets in the current year due to block runoff.
Net investment gains (losses)
 
   
Net investment gains in our long-term care insurance business increased $20 million principally due to higher unrealized gains from changes in the fair value of equity securities, and from prior year derivative and credit losses, partially offset by prior year net realized gains from the sale of investment securities.
 
   
Net investment gains in our life insurance business increased $12 million predominantly from higher net derivative gains and unrealized gains from changes in the fair value of equity securities in the current year compared to unrealized losses in the prior year.
 
   
Net investment losses in our fixed annuities business decreased $28 million primarily related to net derivative gains in the current year compared to net derivative losses in the prior year.
Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business decreased $153 million primarily due to a more favorable impact of $147 million from reduced benefits in the current year related to
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, which included policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement, and from favorable development on IBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block and higher incremental reserves of $195 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses. In addition, we increased claim reserves by $52 million reflecting our assumption that
COVID-19
accelerated our mortality experience on the most vulnerable claimants, leaving the remaining claim population less likely to terminate compared to the
pre-pandemic
average population.
 
   
Our life insurance business decreased $64 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products in the current year compared to the prior year.
 
   
Our fixed annuities business decreased $9 million principally from lower reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year compared to an unfavorable market in the prior year.
Interest credited.
The decrease in interest credited was related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businesses largely driven by a decline in the average account values and from lower crediting rates in the current year.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals.
The increase was predominantly related to our long-term care insurance business principally related to higher premium taxes, commissions and other expenses of $99 million associated with our
in-force
rate action plan, which included expenses related to policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in the current year. The increase was also attributable to restructuring costs of $16 million in the current year.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles
 
   
Our long-term care insurance business increased $6 million principally from policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year.

Table of Contents
   
Our life insurance business decreased $13 million principally from prior year lapses in our large
20-year
term life insurance block written in 2000, partially offset by DAC impairments of $38 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year. 
 
   
Our fixed annuities business decreased $18 million primarily related to lower DAC amortization reflecting the impact of favorable market changes in the current year.
Interest expense.
The decrease in interest expense was due to our life insurance business principally related to the early redemption of
non-recourse
funding obligations in the prior year.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate was 26.2% and (20.4)% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to higher tax expense on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA, which are tax effected at 35% as they are amortized into net investment income, in relation to
pre-tax
income in the current year.

The loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in reserves less tabular interest on reserves less loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums.
Net earned premiums decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily driven by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status, mostly offset by $24 million of increased premiums from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented. Net earned premiums increased for the six months ended June 30, 2021 largely from $47 million of increased premiums from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, partially offset by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year.
The loss ratio decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 due to the increase in premiums and lower benefits and other changes in reserves as discussed above.

Runoff segment
Trends and conditions
Results of our Runoff segment are affected primarily by investment performance, interest rate levels, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality, surrenders and scheduled maturities. In addition, the results of our Runoff segment can significantly impact our regulatory capital requirements, distributable earnings and liquidity. We use hedging strategies as well as liquidity planning and asset-liability management to help mitigate the impacts. In addition, we may consider reinsurance opportunities to further mitigate volatility in results and manage capital in the future.
Equity market volatility and interest rate movements have caused fluctuations in the results of our variable annuity products and regulatory capital requirements. In the future, equity and interest rate market performance and volatility could result in additional gains or losses in these products although associated hedging activities are expected to partially mitigate these impacts.

Adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased primarily related to lower interest expense in the current year.
Revenues
The decrease in net investment losses was predominantly related to lower derivative losses in the current year.
Benefits and expenses
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, increased principally due to a $3 million gain in the prior year related to the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in 2021 that did not recur.
Interest expense decreased largely driven by the redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in February 2021 and the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021.
The benefit for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily related to the
pre-tax
loss and unrealized losses from changes in the fair value of equity securities, partially offset by tax expense on
non-deductible
expenses. The benefit for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily driven by a tax benefit related to the
pre-tax
loss, partially offset by tax expense from
non-deductible
expenses and forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA.

Adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased primarily related to lower interest expense and operating costs in the current year.
Revenues
Net investment income decreased primarily from lower yields in the current year.
The change to net investment losses in the current year from net investment gains in the prior year was predominantly related to derivative losses in the current year compared to derivative gains in the prior year.
Benefits and expenses
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, decreased mainly driven by lower operating costs and a make-whole premium of $9 million in the prior year related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020, partially offset by restructuring costs of $8 million and a $4 million loss in the current year related to the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes compared to a $4 million gain in the prior year.
Interest expense decreased largely driven by the redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in February 2021, the repurchase of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in September 2021 and the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes in the prior year originally scheduled to mature in June 2020.

Investments and Derivative Instruments
Trends and conditions
Investments
During the second quarter of 2021, the U.S. Federal Reserve maintained interest rates near zero as the U.S. economy continues to recover from the negative impact of
COVID-19.
In its June 2021 meeting, the U.S. Federal Reserve revised its interest rate forecast, and is projecting two separate 25 basis point rate increases in 2023. The U.S. Federal Reserve is also expected to discuss reducing its asset purchase program later in 2021. The U.S. economy continued to show signs of recovery from
COVID-19
during the second quarter of 2021 as economic indicators reflect an improving job market, a reduction in the unemployment rate and improving gross domestic product for 2021. The
COVID-19
vaccine
roll-out
in the United States continued during the second quarter of 2021 with more than 46% of the United States population fully vaccinated and approximately 54% having received at least one dose as of June 30, 2021. U.S. Treasury markets fluctuated during the second quarter of 2021 due in part to the expected shifts in the U.S. Federal Reserve’s monetary policy and from inflation concerns, including whether inflation is only transitory until the U.S. economy fully
re-opens
and supply chains return to full capacity. The rise in consumer and producer prices also indicated an increase in inflation, with both indices rising back to
pre-COVID
levels, including further expansionary indicators present in both the manufacturing and services sectors. While the
two-year
and three-year Treasury yield increased slightly, the five-year through
30-year
Treasury yields decreased during the second quarter of 2021 as compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Credit markets continued their strong performance with credit spreads in the investment grade securities tightening in the second quarter of 2021. Credit markets demonstrated resiliency despite fluctuating interest rates.

Higher yields in the United States, compared to the rest of the global economy, has continued to make the United States market more attractive to both domestic and foreign investors. Seasonally lower supply during the summer is expected to provide additional support to credit markets. This demand has been met with strong supply from both investment grade and below investment grade issuers, who continue to access capital markets to refinance debt at historically low rates.
As of June 30, 2021, we did not have any modifications or extensions of commercial mortgage loans that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Modified loans represented 2% of our total loan portfolio as of June 30, 2021, as borrowers have sought additional relief related to
COVID-19.
We are working with individual borrowers impacted by
COVID-19
to provide alternative forms of relief for a specified period of time. The modified loan population continues to decrease as modification terms expire and property valuations stabilize. Most of our borrowers are current on payments and we do not anticipate a significant impact from troubled debt restructurings in 2021.
As of June 30, 2021, our fixed maturity securities portfolio, which was 95% investment grade, comprised 78% of our total invested assets and cash.
Derivatives
As of June 30, 2021, $960 million notional of our derivatives portfolio was cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The customer swap agreements that govern our cleared derivatives contain provisions that enable our clearing agents to request initial margin in excess of CME requirements. As of June 30, 2021, we posted initial margin of $65 million to our clearing agents, which represented approximately $32 million more than was otherwise required by the clearinghouse. Because our clearing agents serve as guarantors of our obligations to the CME, the customer agreements contain broad termination provisions that are not specifically dependent on ratings. As of June 30, 2021, $10.4 billion notional of our derivatives portfolio was in bilateral
over-the-counter
derivative transactions pursuant to which we have posted aggregate independent amounts of $534 million and are holding collateral from counterparties in the amount of $238 million.
In July 2017, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), with its full elimination to occur after 2021. The last committed publication date for LIBOR is December 31, 2021. The Alternate Reference Rate Committee, convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the New York Federal Reserve Bank, has endorsed the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred replacement benchmark for U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is calculated and published by the New York Federal Reserve Bank and reflects the combination of three overnight U.S. Treasury Repo Rates. The rate is different from LIBOR, in that it is a risk-free rate, is backward-looking instead of forward-looking, is a secured rate and currently is available primarily as an overnight rate rather than a
1-,
3-
or
6-month
rate available for LIBOR. Upon the announcement, we formed a working group comprised of finance, investments, derivative, and tax professionals, as well as lawyers (the “Working Group”) to evaluate contracts and perform analysis of our LIBOR-based derivative instrument and investment exposure, as well as debt (including subordinated debt and Federal Home Loan Bank loans), reinsurance agreements and institutional products within the Runoff segment, as a result of the elimination of LIBOR. The Working Group took inventory of all investments with LIBOR exposure and identified nearly 400 instruments.
We have completed our assessment of operational readiness for LIBOR cessation related to our various instruments and our Working Group will continue to monitor the process of elimination and replacement of LIBOR. Since the initial announcement, we have terminated a portion of our LIBOR-based swaps and entered into alternative rate swaps. In anticipation of the elimination of LIBOR, we plan to continue to convert our remaining LIBOR-based derivatives in a similar manner. In addition, our
non-recourse
funding obligations with interest rates based on
one-month
LIBOR were redeemed in January 2020. We expect to implement additional measures that we believe will ease the transition from LIBOR. Even though we have begun to take these actions,

it is too early to determine the ultimate impact the elimination of LIBOR will have on our results of operations or financial condition.

Investment income for other invested assets includes amortization of terminated cash flow hedges, which have no corresponding book value within the yield calculation and includes limited partnership investments, which are primarily equity-based and do not have fixed returns by period.
Yields are based on net investment income as reported under U.S. GAAP and are consistent with how we measure our investment performance for management purposes. Yields are annualized, for interim periods, and are calculated as net investment income as a percentage of average quarterly asset carrying values except for fixed maturity securities, derivatives and derivative counterparty collateral, which exclude unrealized fair value

adjustments and securities lending activity, which is included in other invested assets and is calculated net of the corresponding securities lending liability.
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, gross annualized weighted-average investment yields increased from higher investment income on higher average invested assets. Net investment income included higher income of $40 million from limited partnerships, $30 million from bond calls and $24 million related to inflation-driven volatility on TIPs in the current year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, gross annualized weighted-average investment yields increased from higher investment income on higher average invested assets. Net investment income included higher income of $73 million from limited partnerships, $28 million related to inflation-driven volatility on TIPs and $27 million from bond calls in the current year.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2020
 
   
We recorded net gains related to the sale of fixed maturity securities of $98 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 driven primarily by the sale of U.S. government securities due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure management.
 
   
The three months ended June 30, 2021 included net gains of $65 million on limited partnerships primarily from favorable private equity performance in the current year. We recorded net gains on limited partnerships of $37 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 driven largely by the recovery of equity markets in the second quarter of 2020 after the losses suffered in the first quarter of 2020 due to
COVID-19.
 
   
Net investment gains related to derivatives of $4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily associated with hedging programs that support our runoff variable annuity and indexed universal life insurance products, partially offset by losses related to derivatives used to protect statutory surplus from equity market fluctuations as well as hedging programs for our fixed indexed annuity products.

We recorded net gains related to the sale of fixed maturity securities of $100 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily from the sale of U.S. government securities due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure management.
 
   
We had $102 million of net gains on limited partnerships during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $3 million of net losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The change from losses in the prior year to gains in the current year was primarily due to favorable private equity performance in the current year compared to unfavorable private equity performance in the prior year.
 
   
Net investment gains related to derivatives of $12 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily associated with hedging programs that support our indexed universal life insurance and runoff variable annuity products, partially offset by losses related to derivatives used to protect statutory surplus from equity market fluctuations.

We hold fixed maturity and equity securities, derivatives, embedded derivatives, securities held as collateral and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As of June 30, 2021, approximately 6% of our investment holdings recorded at fair value was based on significant inputs that were not market observable and were classified as Level 3 measurements. See note 6 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements” for additional information related to fair value.

Consolidated Balance Sheets
Total assets
. Total assets decreased $5,097 million from $105,747 million as of December 31, 2020 to $100,650 million as of June 30, 2021.
 
   
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets decreased $2,030 million primarily from decreases of $1,846 million, $347 million and $239 million in fixed maturity securities, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and equity securities, respectively. The decrease in fixed maturity securities was predominantly related to a decrease in unrealized gains due to an increase in interest rates and from net sales in the current year. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was largely related to net withdrawals from our investment contracts, the redemption of $338 million of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes that matured in February 2021, payments of $265 million to AXA primarily under a secured promissory note and the repurchase of $146 million principal amount of senior notes in the current year that are due in September 2021. These decreases to cash were partially offset by net proceeds of approximately $370 million received from the sale of Genworth Australia and by net sales of investment securities in the current year. The decrease in equity securities was largely due to sales in the current year.
 
   
DAC decreased $275 million principally attributable to shadow accounting adjustments associated with a decrease in unrealized gains in the current year. The shadow accounting adjustments decreased DAC by approximately $132 million, mostly in our term universal life insurance product, with an offsetting amount recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The decrease was also attributable to higher amortization largely driven by an increase in lapses in our term life insurance products and amortization outpacing deferrals reflecting the low sales in our long-term care insurance business. In connection with our periodic reviews of DAC for recoverability, we wrote off $38 million of DAC in our universal life insurance products in the current year due principally to lower future estimated gross profits.
 
   
Reinsurance recoverable decreased $153 million mainly attributable to the runoff of our structured settlement products ceded to Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company, an affiliate of our former parent, General Electric Company (“GE”). We also recorded $5 million of expected credit losses in the current year.
 
   
Deferred tax asset increased $146 million largely due to a decrease in unrealized gains on derivatives and investments and from a deferred tax asset of $89 million recorded on the loss on sale of Genworth Australia, partially offset by the utilization of net operating losses and foreign tax credits in the current year.
 
   
Separate account assets increased $121 million primarily due to favorable equity market performance in the current year.
 
   
Assets related to discontinued operations decreased $2,817 million due to the sale and deconsolidation of Genworth Australia in the current year.
Total liabilities
. Total liabilities decreased $4,441 million from $89,927 million as of December 31, 2020 to $85,486 million as of June 30, 2021.
 
   
Future policy benefits decreased $530 million primarily driven by shadow accounting adjustments associated with a decrease in unrealized gains in the current year. The shadow accounting adjustments decreased future policy benefits by approximately $683 million, mostly in our long-term care insurance business, with an offsetting amount recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The decrease was
 
135

Table of Contents
 
also attributable to reduced benefits of $431 million in the current year related to
in-force
actions approved and implemented, which included policyholder benefit reduction elections made as part of a legal settlement in our long-term care insurance business, net outflows driven by surrenders and benefits in our single premium immediate annuity products and from the runoff of our term life insurance products, including from higher lapses in the current year. These decreases were partially offset by aging of our long-term care insurance
in-force
block and higher incremental reserves of $332 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses in the current year.
 
   
Policyholder account balances decreased $1,559 million largely attributable to shadow accounting adjustments associated with a decrease in unrealized gains in the current year. The shadow accounting adjustments decreased policyholder account balances by approximately $574 million, mostly in our universal life insurance products, with an offsetting amount recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The decrease was also related to surrenders and benefits in our single premium deferred annuity products and from scheduled maturities of certain funding agreements in our universal life insurance and institutional products the current year.
 
   
Liability for policy and contract claims increased $60 million largely related to our long-term care insurance business primarily attributable to higher new claims as a result of the aging of the
in-force
block and an $82 million increase to claim reserves to account for changes to incidence and mortality experience driven by
COVID-19,
which we believe are temporary. The increase was also attributable to our Enact segment primarily driven by new delinquencies mostly associated with borrower forbearance resulting from
COVID-19.
These increases were partially offset by fewer pending claims in our life insurance business and higher claim terminations in our long-term care insurance business in the current year.
 
   
Long-term borrowings decreased $479 million mainly attributable to the redemption of Genworth Holdings’ 7.20% senior notes due in February 2021 and the repurchase of $146 million principal amount of senior notes with a September 2021 maturity date.
 
   
Liabilities related to discontinued operations decreased $2,024 million predominantly from the sale and deconsolidation of Genworth Australia, which also resulted in a mandatory payment of approximately $247 million, including accrued interest, to AXA under the secured promissory note in the current year.
Total equity
. Total equity decreased $656 million from $15,820 million as of December 31, 2020 to $15,164 million as of June 30, 2021.
 
   
We reported net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $427 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
 
   
Unrealized gains on investments and derivatives qualifying as hedges decreased $349 million and $208 million, respectively, primarily from an increase in interest rates in the current year.
 
   
Noncontrolling interests decreased $502 million related to the deconsolidation of the ownership interest attributable to noncontrolling interests of Genworth Australia recorded in connection with the final disposition in March 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and capital resources represent our overall financial strength and our ability to generate cash flows from our businesses, borrow funds at competitive rates and raise new capital to meet our operating needs.

Our principal sources of cash include sales of our products and services, income from our investment portfolio and proceeds from sales of investments. As an insurance business, we typically generate positive cash flows from operating activities, as premiums collected from our insurance products and income received from our investments typically exceed policy acquisition costs, benefits paid, redemptions and operating expenses. Our cash flows from operating activities are affected by the timing of premiums, fees and investment income received and benefits and expenses paid. Positive cash flows from operating activities are then invested to support the obligations of our insurance and investment products and required capital supporting these products. In analyzing our cash flow, we focus on the change in the amount of cash available and used in investing activities. Changes in cash from financing activities primarily relate to the issuance of, and redemptions and benefit payments on, universal life insurance and investment contracts; deposits from Federal Home Loan Banks; the issuance of debt and equity securities; the repayment or repurchase of borrowings and
non-recourse
funding obligations; and other capital transactions.
We had lower cash inflows from operating activities in the current year primarily from a decrease in collateral received from counterparties related to our derivative positions compared to an increase in the prior year and due to higher payments to AXA in the current year. We made payments of $265 million to AXA in the current year comprised of a $247 million mandatory payment related to our outstanding secured promissory note issued to AXA and an $18 million settlement payment associated with underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business. In the prior year, we made an interim litigation payment of $134 million to AXA.
We had cash inflows from investing activities in the current year mainly from net sales of fixed maturity securities and net proceeds from the sale of Genworth Australia, partially offset by net capital calls on limited partnerships and net purchases of short-term investments. We had cash outflows from investing activities in the prior year primarily driven by net purchases of fixed maturity securities and net capital calls on limited partnerships.
We had higher cash outflows from financing activities in the current year principally from higher net withdrawals from our investment contracts, partially offset by lower repayment and repurchase of long-term debt. Genworth Holdings redeemed $338 million principal balance of its 7.20% senior notes due in February 2021 and repurchased $146 million principal amount of its 7.625% senior notes due in September 2021 in the current year. In the prior year, Genworth Holdings early redeemed $397 million of its senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020, Rivermont I early redeemed its $315 million
non-recourse
funding obligations originally due in 2050 and Genworth Holdings repurchased $66 million principal amount of its senior notes with 2021 maturity dates.
We engage in certain securities lending transactions for the purpose of enhancing the yield on our investment securities portfolio. We maintain effective control over all loaned securities and, therefore, continue to report such securities as fixed maturity securities on the consolidated balance sheets. We are currently indemnified against counterparty credit risk by the intermediary.

Genworth—holding company
Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings each act as a holding company for their respective subsidiaries and do not have any significant operations of their own. Dividends from their respective subsidiaries, payments to them under tax sharing and expense reimbursement arrangements with their subsidiaries and proceeds from borrowings or securities issuances are their principal sources of cash to meet their obligations. Insurance laws and regulations regulate the payment of dividends and other distributions to Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings by their insurance subsidiaries. Our liquidity is highly dependent on the performance of Enact Holdings and its ability to pay dividends to us as anticipated. Given the performance of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries, dividends will not be paid by these subsidiaries for the foreseeable future.
Subsequent to the second quarter of 2021, GMICO received approval from the NCDOI for a dividend of $200 million to be distributed at
year-end
2021. We believe this is an important milestone as we work to restart the return of capital from Enact Holdings. This approval, coupled with Enact Holdings’ business performance and the recently published changes to the GSE capital preservation rules, provides us incremental confidence for a potential 2021 dividend. However, if our potential partial sale of Enact Holdings is not completed prior to October 2021, the GSEs will likely reconsider the PMIERs capital requirements applicable to our Enact segment which could in turn affect Enact Holdings’ ability to execute future dividends. Any future dividend is subject to market conditions, business performance, business and regulatory approvals, including the GSEs’ approval related to the potential partial sale of Enact Holdings. Future dividend payments are also subject to the mandatory prepayment provisions of the AXA secured promissory note while it remains outstanding and, if occurring following a successful partial sale of Enact Holdings, would include distributions to minority shareholders.
The primary uses of funds at Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings include payment of holding company general operating expenses (including taxes), payment of principal, interest and other expenses on current and any future borrowings or other obligations (including payments to AXA under a secured promissory note reported as discontinued operations), payments under current and any future guarantees (including guarantees of certain subsidiary obligations), payment of amounts owed to GE under the Tax Matters Agreement, payments to subsidiaries (and, in the case of Genworth Holdings, to Genworth Financial) under tax sharing agreements, contributions to subsidiaries, repurchases of debt securities and, in the case of Genworth Holdings, loans, dividends or other distributions to Genworth Financial. In deploying future capital, important current priorities include focusing on Enact Holdings so it remains appropriately capitalized and reducing overall indebtedness of Genworth Holdings. We may from time to time seek to repurchase or redeem outstanding notes for cash (with cash on hand, proceeds from the issuance of new debt and/or the proceeds from asset or stock sales) in open market purchases, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. We currently seek to address our indebtedness over time through repurchases, redemptions and/or repayments at maturity.
Our Board of Directors has suspended the payment of stockholder dividends on our Genworth Financial common stock indefinitely. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent on many factors including the receipt of dividends from our operating subsidiaries, our financial condition and operating results, the capital requirements of our subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, our debt obligations, our credit and financial strength ratings and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant. In addition, our Board of Directors has suspended repurchases of our Genworth Financial common stock under our stock repurchase program indefinitely. The resumption of our stock repurchase program will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
Genworth Holdings had $742 million and $1,078 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which included $46 million of restricted cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020. Genworth Holdings also held $100 million and $25 million in U.S. government securities as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which included $19 million and $25 million, respectively, of restricted assets. The decrease in Genworth Holdings’ cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was principally driven by the repayment of Genworth Holdings’ 7.20% senior notes due in February 2021 for $350 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance of $338 million and accrued interest of $12 million,

and the repurchase of $146 million principal amount of its 7.625% senior notes due in September 2021. In addition, on March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of Genworth Australia and received net proceeds of approximately AUD483 million ($370 million). The sale of Genworth Australia resulted in a mandatory payment of approximately £178 million ($247 million) related to our outstanding secured promissory note issued to AXA, including accrued interest of $2 million. For additional details on the decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, see below under “—Capital resources and financing activities.”
On March 1, 2021, Genworth Holdings entered into a guarantee agreement with Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) whereby Genworth Holdings agreed to contribute additional capital to GFIH related to certain of its liabilities, or otherwise satisfy or discharge those liabilities. The liabilities include but are not limited to, claims and financial obligations or other liabilities of GFIH that existed immediately prior to the distribution of the net proceeds from the Genworth Australia sale. Pursuant to the agreement, Genworth Holdings paid AXA approximately €15 million ($18 million) in the second quarter of 2021 to settle amounts owed related to underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business.
In July 2021, Genworth Holdings early redeemed its 7.625% senior notes originally due in September 2021 with a cash payment of approximately $532 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and a make-whole premium.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, Genworth Holdings received cash dividends from its international subsidiaries of $370 million and $11 million, respectively. Dividends received in the current year include the net proceeds from the sale of Genworth Australia.
Regulated insurance subsidiaries
The liquidity requirements of our regulated insurance subsidiaries principally relate to the liabilities associated with their various insurance and investment products, operating costs and expenses, the payment of dividends to us, contributions to their subsidiaries, payment of principal and interest on their outstanding debt obligations and income taxes. Liabilities arising from insurance and investment products include the payment of benefits, as well as cash payments in connection with policy surrenders and withdrawals, policy loans and obligations to redeem funding agreements.
Our insurance subsidiaries have used cash flows from operations and investment activities to fund their liquidity requirements. Our insurance subsidiaries’ principal cash inflows from operating activities are derived from premiums, annuity deposits and insurance and investment product fees and other income, including commissions, cost of insurance, mortality, expense and surrender charges, contract underwriting fees, investment management fees and dividends and distributions from their subsidiaries. The principal cash inflows from investment activities result from maturities and repayments of investments and, as necessary, sales of invested assets.
Our insurance subsidiaries maintain investment strategies intended to provide adequate funds to pay benefits without forced sales of investments. Products having liabilities with longer durations, such as certain life insurance and long-term care insurance policies, are matched with investments having similar duration such as long-term fixed maturity securities and commercial mortgage loans. Shorter-term liabilities are matched with fixed maturity securities that have short- and medium-term fixed maturities. In addition, our insurance subsidiaries hold highly liquid, high quality short-term investment securities and other liquid investment grade fixed maturity securities to fund anticipated operating expenses, surrenders and withdrawals. As of June 30, 2021, our total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets were $75.2 billion. Our investments in privately placed fixed maturity securities, commercial mortgage loans, policy loans, limited partnership investments and select mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are relatively illiquid. These asset classes represented approximately 38% of the carrying value of our total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets as of June 30, 2021.

As of June 30, 2021, our Enact segment was compliant with the PMIERs capital requirements. On April 16, 2021, our Enact segment obtained approximately $303 million of fully collateralized excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re
2021-2
Ltd. on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from September 2020 through December 2020. Credit risk transfer transactions provided an aggregate of approximately $1,406 million of PMIERs capital credit as of June 30, 2021. Our Enact segment may execute future credit risk transfer transactions to maintain a prudent level of financial flexibility in excess of the PMIERs capital requirements in response to potential changes in performance and PMIERs requirements over time.
Capital resources and financing activities
Genworth Holdings paid its 7.20% senior notes with a principal balance of $338 million at maturity on February 16, 2021. Genworth Holdings’ 7.20% senior notes were fully redeemed with a cash payment of $350 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest.
In March 2021, Genworth Holdings repurchased $146 million principal amount of its 7.625% senior notes due in September 2021 for a
pre-tax
loss of $4 million and paid accrued interest thereon. On July 21, 2021, Genworth Holdings early redeemed the remainder of its 7.625% senior notes originally scheduled to mature in September 2021. The senior notes were fully redeemed with a cash payment of $532 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance of $513 million, accrued interest of approximately $13 million and a make-whole premium of approximately $6 million.
As of June 30, 2021, Genworth Holdings has $823 million of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and liquid assets. Genworth Holdings received net cash proceeds of $370 million from the sale of Genworth Australia in March 2021, of which $247 million was used to prepay a portion of the AXA promissory note, including accrued interest. In addition, as discussed above, on July 21, 2021, Genworth Holdings early redeemed the remainder of its 7.625% senior notes originally scheduled to mature in September 2021. We believe Genworth Holdings’ unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and liquid assets provide sufficient liquidity to meet our financial obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the date the financial statements are issued based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably estimable, including current cash and management actions in the normal course.
Under the settlement agreement with AXA, we issued a secured promissory note that was originally due in two installment payments in 2022. On March 3, 2021, as discussed above, we repaid the first installment payment to AXA and a portion of the second installment from cash proceeds received from the Genworth Australia sale. Until the secured promissory note issued to AXA is fully repaid, certain prepayment obligations thereunder place significant constraints on our ability to repay debt (other than the September 2021 debt maturity) with the proceeds of new debt financing, equity offerings, asset sales or dividends from subsidiaries.
The remaining AXA promissory note, including expected future claims, is estimated to be $344 million and is due in September 2022. In addition, Genworth Holdings has $400 million of senior notes due in both August 2023 and February 2024. To help address these debt obligations beyond the next year and reduce our overall indebtedness, we are actively taking additional steps toward raising capital by preparing for a potential partial sale of Enact Holdings, subject to market conditions, as well as the satisfaction of various conditions and approvals.
We actively monitor our liquidity position, liquidity generation options and the credit markets given changing market conditions. Our cash management target is to maintain a cash buffer of two times expected annual external debt interest payments. We may move below or above our targeted cash buffer during any given quarter due to the timing of cash outflows and inflows or from future actions. We continue to evaluate our target level of liquidity as circumstances warrant. Additionally, we will continue to evaluate market influences on the valuation of our senior debt and may consider additional opportunities to repurchase our debt over time. We cannot predict with certainty the impact to us from future disruptions in the credit markets or any further future downgrades by one or more of the rating agencies of the financial strength ratings of our insurance company subsidiaries and/or the credit ratings of our holding company debt. The availability of additional funding,

including through a potential partial sale of Enact Holdings or the issuance of debt, convertible or equity-linked securities, will depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, regulatory considerations, the general availability of credit, credit ratings and the performance of and outlook for Enact Holdings and the payment of dividends therefrom. For a discussion of certain risks associated with our liquidity, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Our internal sources of liquidity may be insufficient to meet our needs and our access to capital may be limited or unavailable. Under such conditions, we may seek additional capital but may be unable to obtain it” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
These risks may be exacerbated by the economic impact of
COVID-19.
No references herein to any planned partial sale transaction constitute an offering of securities.
Contractual obligations and commercial commitments
Except as disclosed above, there have been no material additions or changes to our contractual obligations as compared to the amounts disclosed within our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K
filed on February 26, 2021. For additional details related to our commitments, see note 11 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements.”

Our insurance company subsidiaries are restricted by state laws and regulations as to the amount of dividends they may pay to their parent without regulatory approval in any year, the purpose of which is to protect affected insurance policyholders and contractholders, not stockholders. Any dividends in excess of limits are deemed “extraordinary” and require approval. Based on statutory results as of December 31, 2020, in accordance with applicable dividend restrictions, our subsidiaries could pay dividends of approximately $190 million to us in 2021, and the remaining net assets are considered restricted. While the $190 million is considered unrestricted, our insurance subsidiaries may not pay dividends to us in 2021 at this level as they may need to preserve capital for regulatory purposes, including to meet required capital requirements, and may need to retain capital for future growth. As of June 30, 2021, Genworth Financial’s and Genworth Holdings’ subsidiaries had restricted net assets of $15.0 billion and $15.9 billion, respectively.
In September 2020, the GSEs imposed certain restrictions with respect to capital on our Enact segment. See “Item 2—Enact segment—Trends and conditions” for additional details.

New Accounting Standards
For a discussion of recently adopted accounting standards, see note 2 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements.”
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of the loss of fair value resulting from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. Market risk is directly influenced by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying financial instruments are traded. There were no material changes in our market risks since December 31, 2020. See “—Business trends and conditions” and “—Investments and Derivative Instruments” in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion of recent market conditions, including changes in interest rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

and
15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021.
