Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, but not limited to, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”), Risk Factors and the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (including the notes thereto) of Kemper Corporation (“Kemper”) and its subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to herein as the “Company”) may contain or incorporate by reference information that includes or is based on forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Forward-looking statements give expectations or forecasts of future events. The reader can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “believe(s),” “goal(s),” “target(s),” “estimate(s),” “anticipate(s),” “forecast(s),” “project(s),” “plan(s),” “intend(s),” “expect(s),” “might,” “may,” “could” and other terms of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements, in particular, include statements relating to future actions, prospective services or products, future performance or results of current and anticipated services or products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, trends in operations and financial results.

Any or all forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong, and, accordingly, Kemper cautions readers not to place undue reliance on such statements. Kemper bases these statements on current expectations and the current economic environment as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. They involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties that may be important in determining the Company’s actual future results and financial condition.

In addition to those factors discussed under Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” of Part I of Kemper’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”), the reader should consider the following list of general factors that, among others, could cause the Company’s actual results and financial condition to differ materially from estimated results and financial condition.

Factors related to the legal and regulatory environment in which Kemper and its subsidiaries operate

•Evolving policies, practices and interpretations by regulators and courts that increase operating costs and potential liabilities, particularly any that involve retroactive application of new requirements, including, but not limited to, initiatives related to unclaimed property laws or claims handling practices with respect to life insurance policies and the proactive use of death verification databases, and developments related to the novel coronavirus COVID-19 (“COVID-19”);

•Adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal or regulatory proceedings involving Kemper or its subsidiaries or affiliates or related to business practices in the insurance industry;

•Governmental actions, including, but not limited to, implementation of new laws and regulations, and court decisions interpreting existing and future laws and regulations or policy provisions;

•Uncertainties related to regulatory approval of insurance rates, policy forms, insurance products, license applications, dividends from insurance subsidiaries, acquisitions of businesses or strategic initiatives and other matters within the purview of insurance regulators;

•Increased costs and initiatives required to address new legal and regulatory requirements; liabilities, costs and other impacts arising from developments related to cybersecurity, privacy and data governance, including, without limitation, cyber incidents that have occurred or could occur;

Factors relating to insurance claims and related reserves in the Company’s insurance businesses

•The incidence, frequency and severity of catastrophes occurring in any particular reporting period or geographic area, including natural disasters, pandemics (including COVID-19) and terrorist attacks or other man-made events;

•The frequency and severity of insurance claims (including those associated with catastrophe losses and pandemics);

•The interest rate environment, including proposed rate changes by the U.S. Federal Reserve, which may cause material fluctuations in our life policyholder benefit reserves;

•Changes in facts and circumstances affecting assumptions used in determining loss and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) reserves, including, but not limited to, the frequency and severity of insurance claims, changes in claims

handling procedures and closure patterns, development patterns and the impacts of COVID-19 and associated governmental responses, and technological and other environmental conditions;

•The impact of inflation on insurance claims, including, but not limited to, the effects on material costs and personal injury claims of increasing medical costs and the severity of claims resulting from a catastrophe;

•The effects on property claims attributed to supply chain disruption and scarcity of resources available to rebuild damaged structures, including labor and materials and the amount of salvage value recovered for damaged property;

•The rising costs of insurance claims from increased and more targeted litigation, higher jury awards, broader definitions of liability, and other effects of societal trends referred to as social inflation;

•Developments related to insurance policy claims and coverage issues, including, but not limited to, interpretations, pronouncements or decisions by courts or regulators that may govern or influence losses incurred in connection with hurricanes and other catastrophes, including COVID-19;

•Orders, interpretations or other actions by regulators that impact the reporting, adjustment and payment of claims;

•Changes in the pricing or availability of reinsurance, or in the financial condition of reinsurers and amounts recoverable therefrom;

Factors related to the Company’s ability to compete

•Changes in the ratings of Kemper and/or its insurance company subsidiaries by rating agencies with regard to credit, financial strength, claims paying ability and other areas on which the Company is rated;

•The level of success and costs incurred in realizing or maintaining economies of scale, integrating acquired businesses and implementing significant business initiatives and the timing of the occurrence or completion of such events, including, but not limited to, those related to expense and claims savings, consolidations, reorganizations and technology;

•Absolute and relative performance of the Company’s products and services, including, but not limited to, the level of success achieved in designing and introducing new insurance products and services;

•Difficulties with technology, data and network security (including as a result of cyber attacks that have occurred or could occur), outsourcing relationships or cloud-based technology that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to conduct business, a heightened risk when substantial numbers of employees shift to work from home arrangements, such as the arrangements implemented for a vast majority of the Company’s employees and some business partners during the COVID-19 pandemic;

•The ability of the Company to maintain the availability and required performance of critical systems and manage technology initiatives cost-effectively to address insurance industry developments and regulatory requirements;

•Heightened competition, including, with respect to pricing, consolidations of existing competitors or entry of new competitors and alternate distribution channels, introduction of new technologies, use and enhancements of telematics, refinements of existing products and development of new products by current or future competitors;

•Expected benefits and synergies from mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and/or strategic initiatives that may not be realized to the extent anticipated, within expected time frames or at all, due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, the loss of key agents/brokers, customers or employees, increased costs, fees, expenses and related charges and delays caused by unanticipated developments or factors outside of the Company’s control;

•The successful formulation and execution of the Company’s plan with regard to corporate strategy and significant operational changes;

•Increase in competition as a result of new competitors to the property and casualty insurance industry or existence of competitors that receive substantial infusion of capital or access to third-party capital;

Factors relating to the business environment in which Kemper and its subsidiaries operate

•Changes in general economic conditions, including those related to, without limitation, performance of financial markets, interest rates, inflation, unemployment rates, significant global catastrophes such as the COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent global pandemic, and fluctuating values of particular investments held by the Company;

•Absolute and relative performance of investments held by the Company;

•Changes in insurance industry trends and significant industry developments;

•Changes in consumer trends, including changes in number of miles driven by automobile insurance policyholders, and significant consumer or product developments;

•Changes in capital requirements, including the calculations thereof, used by regulators and rating agencies;

•Regulatory, accounting or tax changes that may affect the Company’s earnings, the cost of, or demand for, the Company’s products or services or after-tax returns from the Company’s investments;

•The impact of required participation in state windpools and joint underwriting associations, residual market assessments and assessments for insurance industry insolvencies, including the impact of COVID-19;

•Changes in distribution channels, methods or costs resulting from changes in laws or regulations, legal proceedings or market forces;

•Increasing competition and higher costs for executive talent and employees with necessary skills and industry experience;

•Increased costs and risks related to cybersecurity that could materially affect the Company’s operations including, but not limited to, data breaches, cyber attacks, virus or malware attacks, or other infiltrations or incidents affecting system integrity, availability and performance, and actions taken to minimize and remediate the risks of such events that have occurred or could occur;

Other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in Kemper’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)

Kemper cannot provide any assurances that the results and outcomes contemplated in any forward-looking statements will be achieved or will be achieved in any particular timetable or that future events or developments will not cause such statements to be inaccurate, including impacts related to COVID-19. Kemper assumes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statements publicly for any changes in events or developments or in the Company’s expectations or results subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Kemper advises the reader, however, to consult any further disclosures Kemper makes on related subjects in its filings with the SEC.

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Kemper Corporation (“Kemper”) and its subsidiaries which include property and casualty subsidiaries, life subsidiaries, a health subsidiary through the date of its sale of December 1, 2022 (collectively referred to herein as the “Company”), and a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary.

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on a basis consistent with reporting interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC and include the accounts of Kemper Corporation and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Certain financial information that is included in the annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnote disclosures, prepared in accordance with GAAP is not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting and has been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements requires significant management estimates. Due to this factor and other factors, such as the seasonal nature of some portions of the insurance business, annualizing the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 would not necessarily be indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Kemper’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, except for Note 7 “Liability for Future Policyholder Benefits”, Note 8 “Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs”, Note 13 “Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss” and Note 16 “Policyholder Obligations”, which were impacted due to the implementation of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-12 Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.

Adoption of New Accounting Guidance

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements with effective dates prior to September 30, 2023. Other than discussed below, there were no adoptions of accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that had a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Guidance Adopted in 2023

The Company adopted ASU 2018-12 for the liability for future policyholder benefits and deferred acquisition costs on a modified retrospective basis as of January 1, 2023, such that those balances were adjusted to conform to ASU 2018-12 on January 1, 2021.

The new standard requires cash flow assumptions used to measure the liability for future policyholder benefits for nonparticipating traditional and limited pay long-duration contracts be reviewed at least annually, and if there is a change, updated with the recognition and remeasurement recorded in net income. It also requires the discount rate used in measuring the liability to be an upper-medium grade fixed-income instrument yield, which is to be updated at each reporting period, and recognized in other comprehensive income. ASU 2018-12 simplifies the amortization of deferred acquisition costs to a constant level basis over the expected term of the contract, requires all market risk benefits to be measured at fair value, and enhances certain presentation and disclosure requirements, as discussed in Note 7 and Note 8.

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2018-12, beginning retained earnings was reduced by $25.1 million and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) reduced by $1,030.3 million as of January 1, 2021.

The table below presents the transition adjustment for the adoption of ASU 2018-12:


	Pre-Adoption Balance 12/31/2020		Adjustments to AOCI	Adjustments to Retained Earnings	Post- Adoption Balance 1/1/2021



Retained Earnings	$	2,071.2	—	(25.1)	$	2,046.1
AOCI	$	680.5	(1,030.3)	—	$	(349.8)

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies (Continued)

For the liability for future policyholder benefits, the net transition adjustment is related to the difference in the historical discount rates used pre-transition and the discount rate at December 31, 2020. At transition, there were no adjustments related to premium deficiencies, as the balance is only applicable to Kemper’s universal life contracts which are stated at account value.

Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02 Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method, which expands the use of the proportional amortization method of accounting to equity investments in other tax credit structures that meet certain criteria. The proportional amortization method results in the tax credit investment being amortized in proportion to the allocation of tax credits and other tax benefits in each period, and a net presentation within the income tax line item. ASU 2023-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies Related to ASU 2018-12

The below outlines those significant accounting policies related to ASU 2018-12 that were effective January 1, 2023.

Liability for Future Policyholder Benefits

A liability for future policyholder benefits, which is the present value of estimated future policyholder benefits to be paid to or on behalf of policyholders and certain related expenses, less the present value of estimated future net premiums to be collected from policyholders, is accrued as premium revenue is recognized. The liability is estimated using current assumptions that

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies (Continued)

include discount rate, mortality, lapses and expenses. These current assumptions are based on judgments that consider the Company’s historical experience, industry data, and other factors.

The liability is adjusted for differences between actual and expected experience. The Company reviews and updates its estimate of cash flows expected over the lifetime of a group of contracts using actual historical experience quarterly and current future cash flow assumptions at least annually to calculate its revised net premium ratio. The revised net premium ratios are then used to calculate an updated liability for future policyholder benefits for the current reporting period, discounted at the original contract issuance discount rate. The Company has elected to use expense assumptions that are locked in at contract inception and are not subsequently reviewed or updated. Resulting changes in the liability due to differences in actual versus expected experience, changes in current cash flow assumptions, and prefunding and payout of benefits compared to the carrying amount of the liability as of that same date are recorded as a separate component of benefit expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss.

The current discount rate assumption is an equivalent spot rate curve of annually compounded rates at monthly increments that is derived based on A-credit rated fixed-income instruments reflecting the duration characteristics of the liability. The Company utilizes published corporate yield curves from Bloomberg’s BVAL Investment Grade Corporate Sector curve. The current

discount rate assumption is updated quarterly and used to remeasure the liability at the reporting date, with the resulting change reflected in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). For liability cash flows that are projected beyond the maximum observable point on the yield curve, the yield grades to an ultimate forward rate.

Deferred Profit Liability

For limited-payment products, gross premiums received in excess of net premiums are deferred at initial recognition as a deferred profit liability (“DPL”). Gross premiums are measured using assumptions consistent with those used in the measurement of the liability for future policyholder benefits, including discount rate, mortality, lapses, and expenses.

The DPL is amortized and recognized as premium revenue in proportion to insurance in force for nonparticipating limited-payment contracts. Interest is accreted on the balance of the DPL using the discount rate determined at contract issuance. The Company reviews and updates its estimates of cash flows for the DPL at the same time as the estimates of cash flows for the liability for future policyholder benefits. When cash flows are updated, the updated estimates are used to recalculate the DPL at contract issuance. The recalculated DPL as of the beginning of the current reporting period is compared to the carrying amount of the DPL as of the beginning of the current reporting period, and any difference is recognized as either an increase or decrease to Earned Premiums.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

Deferred costs are grouped by contract type and issue year into cohorts consistent with the grouping used in estimating the associated liability. These deferred costs are amortized on a constant level basis for grouped contracts over the expected term of the related contracts to approximate straight-line amortization. The expected term of the contract used for amortization is determined using mortality and termination assumptions that are based on the Company’s experience, industry data, and other factors and are consistent with those used for the liability for future policyholder benefits. If those projected assumptions change in future periods, they will be reflected in the straight-line amortization horizon at that time. Unexpected terminations, due to higher mortality and termination experience than expected, are recognized in the current period as a reduction of the capitalized balances. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs is included in Insurance Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss.

Note 2 - Net Loss Per Unrestricted Share

The Company’s awards of deferred stock units granted to Kemper’s non-employee directors prior to 2019 contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents and participate in the undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Accordingly, the Company is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per share.

Note 3 - Goodwill

During the second quarter of 2023, the Company identified impairment indicators impacting the fair value of the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance business in connection with ongoing evaluation of strategic alternatives for the Preferred Insurance business. As a result, the business’s fair value was determined using a combination of available market information, market comparisons and a discounted cash flow valuation method based on the present value of future earnings. The fair value calculated in the second quarter of 2023 was lower than the carrying value of the business, resulting in a pre-tax impairment charge of $49.6 million and an after-tax impairment charge of $45.5 million. A substantial portion of the goodwill that was impaired was not tax deductible. The goodwill impairment charge is reported separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, with a corresponding reduction to goodwill in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2023.

Note 4 - Dispositions

Disposition of Reserve National Insurance Company

In July 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell Reserve National Insurance Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Reserve National”) to Medical Mutual of Ohio, for approximately $90.0 million in total consideration. The sale closed on December 1, 2022 and a loss of $1.6 million, net of income tax, was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2022. Subsequent adjustments to this purchase price could occur pursuant to the definitive agreement but

are not expected to be material. The Company reported Reserve National’s results of operations in the Life Insurance segment through December 1, 2022.

Note 5 - Business Segments

In the third quarter of 2023, the Company announced that it will exit the Preferred Property and Casualty Insurance business and will actively reduce the business beginning in third quarter 2023, with all policies being non-renewed or canceled in accordance with applicable state regulations. In connection with the exit, the Company changed its segment measure of performance to exclude the results of the Preferred Property and Casualty Insurance business from Segment Adjusted Net Operating Loss effective July 1, 2023, since the results are irrelevant to ongoing operations of the Company and do not qualify for Discontinued Operations under U.S. GAAP. The results of this business, previously reported as a reportable segment, are

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

(Unaudited)

Note 5 - Business Segments (Continued)

now reflected as Non-Core Operations and presented as a reconciling item between Segment Adjusted Operating Net Loss and Net Loss. Prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the change in reportable segments and the segment measure of performance. As of September 30, 2023, the Company principally conducts its operations through two segments: Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance and Life Insurance.

The Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment’s principal products are specialty and commercial automobile insurance. These products are distributed primarily through independent agents and brokers. The Life Insurance segment’s principal products are individual life, accident, supplemental health and property insurance. Career agents employed by the Company distribute these products. This segment has historically been referred to as “Life & Health Insurance.” The results of the segment are unchanged. Corporate and Other operations include interest expense, board of director fees, and general corporate expenses incurred by the Company which are not allocated to other businesses.

Segment Adjusted Operating (Loss) Income

The Company analyzes the operating performance of each segment using segment adjusted operating (loss) income. Segment adjusted operating (loss) income does not equate to “loss before income taxes” or “net loss” as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP but is the measure of segment profit or loss used by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources, and consistent with authoritative guidance, is the measure of segment performance presented below. Segment adjusted operating (loss) income is calculated by adjusting each segment’s loss before income taxes for the following items:

(i) Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities;

(ii) Net Realized Investment (Losses) Gains;

(iii) Impairment Gains (Losses);

(iv) Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction, Integration, Restructuring and Other Costs;

(v) Debt Extinguishment, Pension Settlement and Other Charges;

(vi) Goodwill Impairment Charge;

(vii) Non-Core Operations; and

(viii) Significant non-recurring or infrequent items that may not be indicative of ongoing operations

These items are important to an understanding of overall results of operations. Segment adjusted operating (loss) income is not a substitute for income determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the Company’s definition of segment adjusted operating (loss) income may differ from that used by other companies. The Company, however, believes that the presentation of segment adjusted consolidated operating (loss) income as measured for management purposes enhances the understanding of results of operations by highlighting the results from ongoing operations and the underlying profitability factors of its businesses.

Plus Reinsurance Recoverables at End of Period	28.9		42.5
Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves, Gross of Reinsurance at End of Period	$	2,724.5	$	2,720.3

Property and casualty insurance reserves are estimated based on historical experience patterns and current economic trends. Actual loss experience and loss trends are likely to differ from these historical experience patterns and economic conditions. Loss experience and loss trends emerge over several years from the dates of loss inception. The Company monitors such emerging loss trends on a quarterly basis. Changes in such estimates are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss in the period of change.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company increased its property and casualty insurance reserves by $158.5 million to recognize adverse development of loss and LAE reserves from prior accident years. Specialty personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $110.9 million due primarily to higher than expected emergence in loss patterns related to third and fourth accident quarters of 2022 within the bodily injury and physical damage coverages as well as an increase in Florida personal injury protection driven by higher than expected frequency and severity resulting from an increase in litigated claim activity, mainly from policy years 2020 through 2022. Commercial automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $22.2 million due to higher than expected emergence in loss patterns related to policy years 2021 and 2022 bodily injury coverages. Non-Core personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $18.3 million due to higher than expected emergence in loss patterns related to the third and fourth accident quarters of 2022 within the bodily injury and physical damage coverages. Non-Core homeowners loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $3.8 million. None-Core other lines loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $3.3 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company decreased its property and casualty insurance reserves by $22.5 million to recognize favorable development of loss and LAE reserves from prior accident years. Specialty personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $31.6 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for liability and physical damage insurance. Commercial automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $7.5 million due primarily to the emergence of more adverse loss patterns than expected for liability insurance. Non-Core personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $1.9 million due primarily to the emergence of more adverse loss patterns than expected for liability insurance. Homeowners loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $6.1 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected. Other lines loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $5.8 million due primarily to the emergence of more adverse loss patterns than expected for prior accident years.

The Company cannot predict whether loss and LAE reserves will develop favorably or adversely from the amounts reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that any such development will not have a material effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity, but could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial results for a given period.

Costs directly associated with the successful acquisition of business, principally commissions and certain premium taxes and policy issuance costs, are deferred. Costs deferred on property and casualty insurance contracts are amortized over the period in which premiums are earned. Costs deferred on traditional life insurance products and other long-duration insurance contracts are amortized on a constant level basis over the expected life of the contracts in accordance with the assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policyholder benefits for nonparticipating traditional and limited-payment contracts. The underlying assumptions for deferred policy acquisition costs and the liability for future policyholder benefits were updated concurrently.

The Company did not make any changes to future assumptions for both the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Loans to Policyholders

Loans to Policyholders represents funds loaned to policyholders up to the cash surrender value of the associated insurance policies and are carried at the unpaid principal balances due to the Company from the policyholders. Interest income on policy loans is recognized in Net Investment Income at the contract interest rate when earned. Policy loans are fully collateralized by the cash surrender value of the associated insurance policies.

The carrying values of the Company’s Loans to Policyholders at Unpaid Principal investment at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $281.8 million and $283.4 million, respectively.

Total	$	273.1	$	269.9

The Company performs a qualitative impairment analysis of its Other Investments on a quarterly basis consisting of various factors such as earnings performance, current market conditions, changes in credit ratings, changes in the regulatory environment and other factors. If the qualitative analysis identifies the presence of impairment indicators, the Company estimates the fair value of the investment. If the estimated fair value is below the carrying value, the Company records an impairment in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss to reduce the carrying value to the estimated fair value. When the Company identifies observable transactions of the same or similar securities to those held by the Company, the Company increases or decreases the carrying value to the observable transaction price. The Company did not recognize any changes in carrying value due to observable transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company did not recognize any impairment on Equity Securities at Modified Cost for nine months ended September 30, 2023 as a result of the Company’s impairment analysis. The Company recognized no cumulative increases or decreases in the carrying value due to observable transactions and $7.5 million of cumulative impairments on Equity Securities at Modified Cost held as of September 30, 2023.

Note 10 - Derivatives

The Company’s earnings, cash flows, and financial position are subject to fluctuations due to changes in prevailing interest rates.

The Company entered into derivative agreements with maturity dates throughout 2023. Derivative instruments are carried at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivative instruments in a gain position are presented within Other Investments and those in a loss position are included in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities. Changes in the fair values of derivatives are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss within Net Realized Investment Gains or Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss along with the corresponding change in the designated hedge assets. As of September 30, 2023, no derivatives qualified for hedge accounting, therefore, amounts previously held in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss have been recognized through the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s debt securities valuations utilize the Treasury designated benchmark rate, exposing the Company to variability due to changes in interest rates.

Interest Swap Lock

The Company entered into an interest swap lock agreement in the third quarter of 2022 classified as cash flow hedges to manage exposure to changes in future purchase prices of fixed maturity securities attributable to changes in the benchmark (Treasury) interest rate. The Company assesses the effectiveness of cash flow hedges using the hypothetical derivative method. Based on the results of the assessment, the hedge was determined to be effective. The interest swap lock agreement was closed out in the first quarter of 2023.

Ultra-Long Treasury Futures

During 2023, the Company entered into two transactions of exchange-traded ultra-long Treasury futures (“Treasury Futures”) in order to manage exposure to upcoming changes in the benchmark (Treasury) interest rate of forecasted transactions. These derivatives expire quarterly. The Treasury Futures renewed in the third quarter of 2023. The open treasury futures do not qualify for hedge accounting. The results are shown in the Primary Risks Managed by Derivatives section below.

Reverse Treasury Lock

During 2022, the Company entered into a Reverse Treasury Lock agreement to manage reinvestment risk on future purchases of fixed maturity securities. The Reverse Treasury Lock agreement did not qualify for hedge accounting and matured in the first quarter of 2023. The results are shown in the Primary Risks Managed by Derivatives section below.

Note 11 - Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 1 primarily consist of U.S. Treasury Bonds and Notes. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities at Fair Value that are classified as Level 1 consist of either investments in publicly-traded common stocks or exchange traded funds. The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 2 primarily consist of investments in corporate bonds, obligations of states and political subdivisions, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed securities of U.S. government agencies. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities at Fair Value that are classified as Level 2 primarily consist of investments in preferred stocks. The Company’s Derivative Instruments Designated as Fair Value Hedges that are classified as Level 2 primarily consist of hedges against the Company’s available for sale debt securities portfolio. The Company uses a leading, nationally recognized provider of market data and analytics to price the vast majority of the Company’s Level 2 measurements. The provider utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Because many fixed maturity securities do not trade on a daily basis, the provider’s evaluated pricing applications apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing to prepare evaluations. In addition, the provider uses model processes to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. The pricing provider’s models and processes also take into account market convention. For each asset class, teams of its evaluators gather information from market sources and integrate relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The Company generally validates the measurements obtained from its primary pricing provider by comparing them with measurements obtained from one additional pricing provider that provides either prices from recent market transactions, quotes in inactive markets or evaluations based on its own proprietary models.

The Company investigates significant differences related to the values provided. On completion of its investigation, management exercises judgment to determine the price selected and whether adjustments, if any, to the price obtained from the Company’s primary pricing provider would warrant classification of the price as Level 3. In instances where a measurement cannot be obtained from either pricing provider, the Company generally will evaluate bid prices from one or more binding quotes obtained from market makers to value investments in inactive markets and classified by the Company as Level 2. The Company generally classifies securities when it receives non-binding quotes or indications as Level 3 securities unless the Company can validate the quote or indication against recent transactions in the market.

The table below presents quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs utilized by the Company in determining fair values for fixed maturity investments classified as Level 3 at September 30, 2023.

Note 11 - Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

For an investment in a fixed maturity security, an increase in the yield used to determine the fair value of the security will decrease the fair value of the security. A decrease in the yield used to determine fair value will increase the fair value of the security, but for callable securities the fair value increase is generally limited to par, unless security is currently callable at a premium.

The fund investments included above (excluding Hedge Funds) are not redeemable, because distributions from the funds will be received when underlying investments of the funds are liquidated. The funds are generally expected to have approximately 10 year lives at their inception, but these lives may be extended at the fund manager’s discretion, typically in one or two-year increments.

The hedge fund investments included above, which are carried at fair value, are generally redeemable subject to the redemption notices period. The majority of the hedge fund investments are redeemable monthly or quarterly.

The following table includes information related to the Company’s investments in certain private equity funds or hedge funds that calculate a net asset value per share:


Asset Class						Investment Category Includes
Mezzanine Debt						Funds with investments in junior or subordinated debt and potentially minority equity securities issued by private companies.
Senior Debt						Funds with investments in senior or first lien debt and potentially minority equity securities typically issued by private companies.
Distressed Debt						Funds with debt or minority equity investments that are made opportunistically in companies that are in or near default or under financial strain with potential to have an active role in restructuring company.
Secondary Transactions						Funds that focus on purchasing third party fund interests from investors seeking liquidity within their own portfolio.
Hedge Fund						Funds that focus primarily on investing in public securities with strategy of generating uncorrelated returns to the public markets.
Leveraged Buyout						Funds with control equity investments in more mature, positive cash flowing, private companies that are typically purchased with the use of financial leverage.
Growth Equity						Funds that invest in early or venture stage companies with high growth potential with view towards generating realizations through sale or initial public offering (“IPO”) of company.
Real Estate						Funds with investments in multi-family housing properties.
Other						Consists of direct investments of preferred equity or minority common equity investments into private companies structured as limited partnerships or limited liability companies.

Note 11 - Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

Loans to policyholders are carried at unpaid principal balance which approximates fair value and are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The nature of policy loans is to have a negligible default risk as the loans are fully collateralized by the value of the policy. Policy loans do not have a stated maturity and the balances and accrued interest are repaid either by the policyholder or with proceeds from the policy. Due to the collateralized nature of policy loans and unpredictable timing of payments, the Company believes the carrying value of policy loans approximates fair value. The fair value measurement of Short-term Investments is estimated using inputs that are considered either Level 1 or Level 2 measurements. The Mortgage Loans fair value measurement is considered equal to amortized cost given the short-term nature of the investments. The fair value measurement of Equity Securities at Modified Cost is estimated using inputs that are considered Level 3 measurements. The cash surrender value of Company-Owned Life Insurance approximates fair value and is considered to be a Level 2 investment. The fair value of Long-term Debt is estimated using quoted prices for similar liabilities in markets that are not active. The inputs used in the valuation are considered Level 2 measurements. Policyholder Obligations presented in the preceding table consist of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Chicago, and the inputs used in the valuation are considered Level 2 measurements.

Note 12 - Variable Interest Entities

A VIE is a legal entity that does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or is structured such that equity investors lack the ability to make significant decisions relating to the entity's operations through voting rights or do not substantively participate in the gains and losses of the entity. The Company consolidates VIEs in which the Company is deemed the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect that entity's economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Reciprocal Exchange

The Company has formed a management company that acts as attorney-in-fact (“AIF”) for Kemper Reciprocal (the “Reciprocal Exchange” or “Exchange”), an Illinois-domiciled reciprocal insurance exchange. The Exchange principally writes specialty personal automobile policies sold to subscribers of the Exchange. The establishment of Kemper Reciprocal was completed in the third quarter of 2023.

The Company consolidates the Exchange since (1) the AIF manages the business operations of the Exchange and therefore has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Exchange and (2) the Company has provided capital to the Exchange and would absorb any expected losses that could potentially be significant to the Exchange. The Exchange’s anticipated economic performance is the product of its underwriting and investment results. The AIF receives a management fee for the services provided to the Reciprocal Exchange. The management fee revenues are based upon all premiums written or assumed by the Exchange. The AIF determines the management fee rate to be paid by the Exchange. This rate cannot exceed 30% of the Exchange’s gross written and assumed premiums.

The assets of the Reciprocal Exchange can be used only to settle the obligations of the Reciprocal Exchange for which creditors and other beneficial owners have no recourse to the Company. The Company has no obligation related to any underwriting and/or investment losses experienced by the Exchange. As of September 30, 2023, the Company contributed $4.0 million of surplus to the Reciprocal Exchange. The effects of the transactions between the Company and the Reciprocal Exchange are eliminated in consolidation to derive consolidated Net Loss. However, the management fee income earned by the AIF is reported in Net Loss attributable to Kemper Corporation and is included in the basic and diluted earnings per share.

Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. Since the Company has no ownership interest in the Exchange, the difference between the value of the Exchange’s assets and liabilities represents noncontrolling interest and any income or loss generated by the net assets of the Exchange is presented as income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest.

Alternative Energy Partnership

The Company invests in an Alternative Energy Partnership formed to provide sustainable energy projects that are designed to generate a return primarily through the realization of federal tax credits. This entity was formed to invest in newly installed residential solar leases and power purchase agreements. As a result of this investment, the Company has the right to certain

investment tax credits and tax depreciation benefits, and to a lesser extent, cash flows generated from the installed solar systems leased to individual consumers.

Note 12 - Variable Interest Entities (Continued)

The Company’s interest in the Alternative Energy Partnership Investment is considered an investment in a VIE. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity and therefore is not required to consolidate the VIE. The project sponsor governs the entity and the Company only has consent rights that have been deemed protective in nature and does not participate in key economic decisions of the entity.

The investment is accounted for using the equity method of accounting and included in Alternative Energy Partnership Investments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company uses the HLBV equity method to account for earnings and losses. This method provides an earnings allocation that appropriately reflects the substantive economics of the investment. Earnings and losses on the investment are reported in Change in Value of Alternative Energy Partnership Investments and investment tax credits are recognized in Income Tax Benefit on the Consolidated Statements of Loss.

The following table presents information regarding activity in the Company’s Alternative Energy Partnership Investments for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, Kemper did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company issued 68,000 and 79,000 shares under the Kemper Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), respectively, at an average discounted price of $40.61 and $40.54 per share. Compensation costs charged against income were $0.5 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company issued 24,000 and 31,000 shares under the ESPP at a discounted price of $35.73 and $35.07 per share, respectively. Compensation costs charged against income were $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 15 - Pension Benefits and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions

The Company sponsored a qualified defined benefit pension plan (the “Pension Plan”) that covered approximately 3,100 participants and beneficiaries. Effective January 1, 2006, the Pension Plan was closed to new hires and, effective June 30, 2016, benefit accruals were frozen for substantially all of the participants under the Pension Plan. The Pension Plan was generally non-contributory, but participation required some employees to contribute 3% of pay, as defined, per year. Benefits for participants who were required to contribute to the Pension Plan were based on compensation during plan participation and the number of years of participation. Benefits for the vast majority of participants who are not required to contribute to the Pension Plan are based on years of service and final average pay, as defined. The Company funded the Pension Plan in accordance with the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).

In the third quarter of 2023, the Company's Pension Plan made lump-sum payments to certain inactive vested plan participants that are not currently receiving benefit payments and elected to receive lump-sum payments and purchased annuities on behalf of remaining plan participants. For plan participants who elected lump-sum payments during the election window, payments of $90.0 million were distributed. Group annuity contracts were purchased from Banner Life Insurance Company for $205.7 million for the remaining plan participants for whom Banner irrevocably assumed the pension obligations. These transactions resulted in a full settlement of the Pension Plan and a $70.2 million noncash settlement charge ($55.5 million after-tax) for the unamortized net unrecognized postretirement benefit costs related to the settled obligations recorded in Interest and Other Expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss. The Pension Plan continues to have approximately $16.0 million of net assets remaining in the trust after the termination and was included within Other Assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023.

When a funding agreement is issued, United Insurance is then required to post collateral in the form of eligible securities including mortgage-backed, government, and agency debt instruments for each of the advances that are entered. The fair value of the collateral pledged must be maintained at certain specified levels above the borrowed amount, which can vary depending on the assets pledged. If the fair value of the collateral declines below these specified levels of the amount borrowed, United Insurance would be required to pledge additional collateral or repay outstanding borrowings.

In anticipation of the issuance of the 2032 Senior Notes and for risk management purposes, the Company entered into a derivative transaction to hedge the risk of changes in the debt cash flows attributable to changes in the benchmark U.S. Treasury interest rate during the period leading up to the debt issuance (“Treasury Lock”). The effective portion of the gain on the derivative instrument upon discontinuance was $5.9 million before taxes, and is reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Beginning with the issuance of the 2032 Senior Notes described in the preceding paragraph, such gain is being amortized into earnings and reported in Interest and Other Expenses in the same periods that the hedged items affect earnings. Amortization, reported in Interest and Other Expenses, was $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company expects to reclassify $0.5 million of net gain on derivative instruments from AOCI to earnings for the twelve months ended September 30, 2024 as interest expense on the debt is recognized.

5.875% Fixed-Rate Reset Junior Subordinated Debentures Due 2062

On March 10, 2022, Kemper issued $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Fixed-Rate Reset Junior Subordinated Debentures due March 15, 2062 (the “2062 Junior Debentures”). The net proceeds from issuance were $144.7 million, net of discount and transaction costs. The 2062 Junior Debentures will bear interest from and including the date of original issue to, but excluding, March 15, 2027 (the “First Reset Date”) at the fixed rate of 5.875% per annum. The interest

rate on the First Reset Date, and subsequent Reset Dates, will be equal to the Five-Year Treasury Rate as of the most recent Reset Date plus 4.140% to be reset on each Reset Date. Interest is due quarterly in arrears beginning on June 15, 2022. The Company has the option to defer interest payments for one or more optional deferral periods of up to five consecutive years,

provided that no optional deferral period shall extend beyond March 15, 2062, or any earlier accelerated maturity date arising from an event of default or any earlier redemption of the 2062 Junior Debentures.

The 2062 Junior Debentures are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole or in part on the First Reset Date or any time thereafter, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the debentures being redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest.

Note 20 - Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of its businesses, the Company is involved in legal proceedings including lawsuits, arbitration, regulatory examinations, audits and inquiries. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that any of its pending legal proceedings will have a material effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Summary of Results

As discussed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies”, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts and related amendments” (“LDTI”) under the modified retrospective method. Prior period amounts in the financial statements have been adjusted to reflect application of the new guidance. Related financial data shown in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations also have been adjusted.

In the third quarter of 2023, the Company announced that it will exit the Preferred Property and Casualty Insurance business and will actively reduce the business beginning in third quarter 2023, with all policies being non-renewed or canceled in accordance with applicable state regulations. In connection with the exit, the Company changed its calculation of Adjusted Consolidated Net Loss to exclude the results of the Preferred Property and Casualty Insurance business effective July 1, 2023, since the results are irrelevant to ongoing operations of the Company and do not qualify for Discontinued Operations under U.S. GAAP. The results of this business, previously reported as a reportable segment, are now reflected as Non-Core Operations and presented as a reconciling item between Segment Adjusted Operating Net Loss and Net Loss. Prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the change in reportable segments and the segment measure of performance.

Net Loss Attributable to Kemper Corporation was $323.5 million ($(5.05) per unrestricted common share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to Net Loss Attributable to Kemper Corporation of $233.3 million ($(3.66) per unrestricted common share) for the same period in 2022.

Net Loss Attributable to Kemper Corporation was $146.3 million ($(2.28) per unrestricted common share) for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to Net Loss Attributable to Kemper Corporation of $74.8 million ($(1.17) per unrestricted common share) for the same period in 2022.

Summary of Results (Continued)

A reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss (a non-GAAP financial measure) for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is presented below.

Net Loss attributable to Kemper Corporation

Net Loss attributable to Kemper Corporation increased by $90.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to a $55.5 million after-tax noncash charge related to the settlement of the Company’s pension obligations, increased Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction, Integration, Restructuring and Other Costs, a $45.5 million after-tax charge from the impairment of the goodwill asset related to the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance business, and Net Realized Losses on Investments, partially offset by favorable changes in the Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities and a reduction in Impairment Losses. Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss increased by $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily due to a decrease from the Life Insurance Segment, partially offset by a reduction in Segment Insurance Net Operating Losses in the Specialty Segment.

Net Loss attributable to Kemper Corporation increased by $71.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to a Pension settlement charge, as described above, increased Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction, Integration, Restructuring and Other Costs, as well as Net Realized Losses on Investments. Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss increased by $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022.

See “Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance,” and “Life Insurance,” for discussion of each respective segment’s results. Corporate and Other Adjusted Net Operating Loss increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, due primarily to a decrease in Net Investment Income.

Summary of Results (Continued)

Corporate and Other Adjusted Net Operating Loss decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, due primarily to an increase in Net Investment Income.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Underlying Losses and LAE and Underlying Combined Ratio

The following discussion of segment results uses the non-GAAP financial measures of (i) Underlying Losses and LAE and (ii) Underlying Combined Ratio. Underlying Losses and LAE (also referred to in the discussion as “Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE”) exclude the impact of catastrophe losses and loss and LAE reserve development from prior years from the Company’s Incurred Losses and LAE, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

The Underlying Combined Ratio is computed by adding the Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE Ratio with the Insurance Expense Ratio. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the Combined Ratio, which is computed by adding Total Incurred Losses and LAE Ratio, including the impact of catastrophe losses and loss and LAE reserve development from prior years, with the Insurance Expense Ratio.

The Company believes Underlying Losses and LAE and the Underlying Combined Ratio are useful to investors and uses these financial measures to reveal the trends in the Company’s Property & Casualty Insurance segment that may be obscured by catastrophe losses and prior-year reserve development. These catastrophe losses may cause the Company’s loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude and can have a significant impact on incurred losses and LAE and the Combined Ratio. Prior-year reserve developments are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. Because reserve development relates to the re-estimation of losses from earlier periods, it has no bearing on the performance of the Company’s insurance products in the current period. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company’s underwriting performance.

Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss

Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss is an after-tax, non-GAAP financial measure and is computed by excluding from Net Loss the after-tax impact of

(i) Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities;

(ii) Net Realized Investment (Losses) Gains;

(iii) Impairment Gains (Losses);

(iv) Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction, Integration, Restructuring and Other Costs;

(v) Debt Extinguishment, Pension Settlement and Other Charges;

(vi) Goodwill Impairment Charges;

(vii) Non-Core Operations; and

(viii) Significant non-recurring or infrequent items that may not be indicative of ongoing operations

Significant non-recurring items are excluded when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, and (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is Net Loss. There were no applicable significant non-recurring items that the Company excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022.

The Company believes that Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Loss provides investors with a valuable measure of its ongoing performance because it reveals underlying operational performance trends that otherwise might be less apparent if the items were not excluded. Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities, Net Realized Investment (Losses) Gains and Impairment Gains (Losses) related to investments included in the Company’s results may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions that impact the values of the Company’s investments, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction Costs, Integration Costs, and Restructuring and Other Costs may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by the timing of acquisitions and business decisions which are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Debt Extinguishment, Pension Settlement and Other Charges relate to (i) loss from early extinguishment of debt, which is driven by the Company’s financing and refinancing decisions and capital needs, as well as external economic developments such as debt market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process; (ii) settlement of pension plan obligations which are business decisions made by the Company, the timing of which is unrelated to the underwriting process; and (iii) other charges that are non-standard, not part of the ordinary course of business, and unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Goodwill impairment charges are excluded because they are infrequent and non-recurring charges. Non-Core Operations includes the results of our Preferred

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Continued)

Insurance business which we expect to fully exit. These results are excluded because they are irrelevant to our ongoing operations and do not qualify for Discontinued Operations under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Significant non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of the Company’s business or economic trends.

The preceding non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for the comparable GAAP financial measures, as they do not fully recognize the overall profitability of the Company’s businesses.

Total Segment Adjusted Net Operating Loss improved by $9.9 million mostly driven by a $24.6 million improvement from personal automobile insurance due primarily to higher average earned premiums per exposure resulting from rate increases and lower underlying claim frequency that was partially offset by unfavorable prior year loss and LAE development. The improvement in segment adjusted net operating loss was offset by a $14.7 million decrease from the commercial automobile insurance business due primarily to an increase in the underlying loss ratio from higher claim average severity.

Earned Premiums in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment decreased by $297.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to a decrease in new business resulting from targeted actions to improve profitability, partially offset by higher average earned premium per exposure resulting from rate increases.

Net Investment Income in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $22.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to higher rates on Fixed Income Securities and short-term investments partially offset by lower returns from Equity Securities.

Underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums were 83.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an improvement of 5.3 percentage points, compared to the same period in 2022, driven by higher average earned premium per exposure resulting from rate increases and lower underlying claims frequency, partially offset by higher claims average severity from rising inflation and supply chain constraints.

Impairment Gains (Losses)

The Company regularly reviews its investment portfolio to determine whether a decline in the fair value of an investment has occurred from credit or other, non-credit related factors. If the decline in fair value is due to credit factors and the Company does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to support the entire amortized cost basis, the credit loss is reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss in the period that the declines are evaluated. Conversely, an increase in the fair value or disposal of an investment with a previously established credit allowance will result in the recognition of impairment gain reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Loss in the period.

Insurance Expenses were $794.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $913.0 million for the same period in 2022. Insurance Expenses decreased by $118.6 million in 2023 due primarily to lower expenses from less business being written.

Interest and Other Expenses

Interest expense increased by $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to the addition of the 2032 Senior Notes and the 2062 Junior Debentures.

Other expenses increased by $139.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due primarily to a $70.2 million noncash charge related to the settlement of the Company’s pension obligations and increases in Acquisition and Disposition Related Transaction, Integration, Restructuring and Other Costs.

Goodwill Impairment

Goodwill Impairment increased $49.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, due to the impairment of goodwill related to the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment.

Income Taxes

The federal corporate statutory income tax rate was 21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The Company’s effective income tax rate differs from the federal corporate income tax rate due primarily to (1) the effects of tax-exempt investment income, (2) nontaxable income associated with the change in cash surrender value on Company-Owned Life Insurance, (3) Alternative Energy Partnership Investment and general business tax credits, (4) a permanent difference between the amount of long-term equity-based compensation expense recognized under GAAP and the amount deductible in the computation of Federal taxable income (5) a permanent difference associated with nondeductible executive compensation, and (6) an impairment of non-tax deductible goodwill.

The Inflation Reduction Act (H.R. 5376 or the "Law") was signed into law on August 16, 2022, and became generally effective on January 1, 2023. Included in the provisions of the Law are various changes to the tax code, including the establishment of a Corporate Alternative Minimum tax.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Amended and Extended Credit Agreement

On March 15, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and extended credit agreement. The amended and extended credit agreement increased the borrowing capacity of the existing unsecured credit agreement to $600.0 million and extended the maturity date to March 15, 2027. Furthermore, the amended and extended credit agreement provides for an accordion feature whereby the Company can increase the revolving credit borrowing capacity by an additional $200.0 million for a total of maximum capacity of $800.0 million. Financial covenants within the agreement limit the Company from accessing the maximum capacity. The amount available as of September 30, 2023 was $376.0 million. There were no outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement on either September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Federal Home Loan Bank Agreements

Kemper’s subsidiaries, United Insurance Company of America (“United Insurance”), Trinity Universal Insurance Company (“Trinity”), and American Access Casualty Company (“AAC”) are members of the Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”) of Chicago, Dallas and Chicago, respectively. Alliance United Insurance Company (“Alliance”) was a member of the FHLB of San Francisco until it surrendered all California licenses on January 30, 2023, and ceased to exist as an insurance company. American Access Casualty Company became a member of the FHLB of Chicago in May 2022. United Insurance and Trinity became members of the FHLBs of Chicago and Dallas, respectively, in 2013. Under their memberships, United Insurance, Trinity and AAC may borrow through the advance program of their respective FHLB. As a requirement of membership in the FHLB, United Insurance, Trinity and AAC must maintain certain levels of investment in FHLB common stock and additional amounts based on the level of outstanding borrowings. The Company’s investments in FHLB common stock are reported at cost and included in Other Investments. The carrying value of FHLB of Chicago common stock was $16.6 million and $17.5 million on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively. The carrying value of FHLB of Dallas common stock was $3.6 million and $3.4 million on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The carrying value of FHLB of San Francisco common stock was $1.4 million on December 31, 2022. The Company periodically uses short-term FHLB borrowings for a combination of cash management and risk management purposes, in addition to long-term FHLB borrowings for spread lending purposes.

During the first nine months of 2023, United Insurance received advances of $122.5 million from the FHLB of Chicago and made repayments of $166.1 million. United Insurance had outstanding advances from the FHLB of Chicago totaling $557.4 million at September 30, 2023. These advances were made in connection with the Company’s spread lending program. The proceeds related to these advances were used to purchase fixed maturity securities to earn incremental net investment income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

For these advances, United Insurance held pledged securities in a custodial account with the FHLB of Chicago with a fair value of $619.1 million at September 30, 2023. The fair value of the collateral pledged must be maintained at certain specified levels above the borrowed amount, which can vary depending on the assets pledged. If the fair value of the collateral declines below these specified levels of the amount borrowed, United Insurance would be required to pledge additional collateral or repay outstanding borrowings. See Note 16, “Policyholder Obligations,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the United Insurance advances and related funding agreements.

Common Stock Repurchases

On May 6, 2020, Kemper’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $200.0 million of Kemper’s common stock, in addition to $133.3 million remaining under the August 6, 2014 authorization, bringing the remaining share repurchase authorization to approximately $333.3 million. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining share repurchase authorization under the repurchase program was $171.6 million. The amount and timing of any future share repurchases under the authorization will depend on various factors, including market conditions, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, available liquidity, particular circumstances and other considerations.

During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, Kemper did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.

Dividends to Shareholders

Kemper paid a quarterly dividend to shareholders of $0.31 per common share in the third quarter of 2023. Dividends and dividend equivalents paid were $59.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Subsidiary Dividends

Various insurance laws restrict the ability of Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends without regulatory approval. Such insurance laws generally restrict the amount of dividends paid in an annual period to the greater of statutory net income from the previous year or 10% of statutory capital and surplus. Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries collectively paid $103.0 million in dividends to Kemper during the first nine months of 2023. As of September 30, 2023, Kemper estimates that its direct insurance subsidiaries could pay approximately $190.0 million in additional dividends to Kemper during the remainder of 2023 without prior regulatory approval. In October 2023, an ordinary dividend of $62.0 million was paid to Kemper from its direct insurance subsidiaries.

Sources and Uses of Funds

Kemper and its direct non-insurance subsidiaries directly held cash and investments totaling $153.9 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $417.6 million at December 31, 2022.

The primary sources of funds available for repayment of Kemper’s indebtedness, repurchases of common stock, future shareholder dividend payments, and the payment of interest on Kemper’s senior notes, include cash and investments directly held by Kemper, receipt of dividends from Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries and borrowings under the credit agreement and from subsidiaries.

The primary sources of funds for Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries are premiums, investment income, proceeds from the sales and maturity of investments, advances from the FHLBs of Chicago and Dallas, and capital contributions from Kemper. The primary uses of funds are the payment of policyholder benefits under life insurance contracts, claims under property and casualty insurance contracts and accident and health insurance contracts, the payment of commissions and general expenses, the purchase of investments and repayments of advances from the FHLBs of Chicago and Dallas.

Generally, there is a time lag between when premiums are collected and when policyholder benefits and insurance claims are paid. During periods of growth, property and casualty insurance companies typically experience positive operating cash flows and can invest a portion of their operating cash flows to fund future policyholder benefits and claims. During periods in which premium revenues decline, insurance companies may experience negative cash flows from operations and may need to sell investments to fund payments to policyholders and claimants. In addition, if the Company’s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries experience several significant catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time, investments may be sold to fund payments, which could result in investment gains or losses. Management believes that its property and casualty insurance subsidiaries maintain adequate levels of liquidity in the event that they were to experience several future catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)

Information about the Company’s cash flows for nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is presented below.


DOLLARS IN MILLIONS	Sep 30, 2023		Sep 30, 2022
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities	$	(104.5)	$	(170.1)
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities	105.2		(129.6)
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities	(100.7)		403.8

Cash available for investment activities is dependent on cash flow from Operating Activities and Financing Activities and the level of cash the Company elects to maintain.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in Operating Activities was $104.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $170.1 million for the same period in 2022. The improvement in cash used in Operating Activities was primarily due to a $124.7 million federal income tax refund that was received in first quarter 2023, partially offset by the timing of paid claims and a decrease in new business written from our Property and Casualty operations.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Net cash provided by Investing Activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $105.2 million, compared to net cash used of $129.6 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in cash used in Investing Activities was primarily driven by the ongoing management of our investment portfolio that was impacted by a decrease in cash from our Property and Casualty operations, as explained above.

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash used in Financing Activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $100.7 million, compared to net cash provided of $403.8 million for the same period in 2022, a decrease of $504.5 million. This was primarily due to a decrease in debt raising activities in 2023 and a decrease in the advances from the Company’s borrowing arrangement with the FHLB used for spread lending purposes.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Kemper’s subsidiaries conduct their operations in two industries: property and casualty insurance and life and health insurance. Accordingly, the Company is subject to several industry-specific accounting principles under GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The process of estimation is inherently uncertain. Accordingly, actual results could ultimately differ materially from the estimated amounts reported in a company’s financial statements. Different assumptions are likely to result in different estimates of reported amounts.

The Company’s critical accounting policies most sensitive to estimates include the valuation of investments, the valuation of reserves for property and casualty insurance incurred losses and LAE, the valuation of liability for future policyholder benefits, the assessment of recoverability of goodwill, the valuation of pension benefit obligations, and the recoverability of deferred tax assets. The Company’s critical accounting policies are described in the MD&A included in the 2022 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to the information disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report with respect to these critical accounting estimates and the Company’s significant accounting policies, other than the addition of significant accounting policies related to the adoption of ASU 2018-12 included in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the Company’s disclosures about market risk in Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk of Part II of the 2022 Annual Report. Accordingly, no disclosures about market risk have been made in Item 3 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by Kemper in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
