| Overview and Basis of Presentation | 1. Overview and Basis of Presentation Corebridge Financial, Inc. (“Corebridge Parent”) is a leading provider of retirement solutions and life insurance products in the United States. Our primary business operations consist of sales of individual and group annuities and life insurance products to individuals and institutional markets products. Corebridge Parent common stock, par value $0.01 per share, is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE:CRBG). The terms “Corebridge,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” mean Corebridge Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context refers to Corebridge Parent only. Subsidiaries of Corebridge Parent include: AGC Life Insurance Company (“AGC”), American General Life Insurance Company (“AGL”), The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (“VALIC”), The United States Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (“USL”), Corebridge Insurance Company of Bermuda, Ltd. (" CRBG Bermuda") and SAFG Capital LLC and its subsidiaries. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements present the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Company. On September 19, 2022, we completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) in which American International Group, Inc. (“AIG Parent”) sold 80.0 million shares of Corebridge Parent common stock to the public. Since our IPO, AIG Parent has sold 159.8 million shares of Corebridge Parent common stock and we have repurchased 17.2 million shares of our common stock from AIG Parent. As of March 31, 2024, AIG Parent owned approximately 52.7% of the outstanding common stock of Corebridge Parent. AIG Parent is a publicly traded entity, listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: AIG). The term “AIG” means AIG Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context refers to AIG Parent only. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of Corebridge Parent, its controlled subsidiaries (generally through a greater than 50% ownership of voting rights and voting interests) and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which we are the primary beneficiary. Equity investments in entities that we do not consolidate, including corporate entities in which we have significant influence and partnership and partnership-like entities in which we have more than minor influence over the operating and financial policies, are accounted for under the equity method unless we have elected the fair value option. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (‘‘GAAP’’). All material intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated. The Company has recorded affiliated transactions with certain AIG subsidiaries that are not subsidiaries of Corebridge which have not been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, including eliminations of material intercompany accounts and transactions, necessary in the opinion of management for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. SALE OF BUSINESSES AIG Life Limited (“AIG Life”) On April 8, 2024, Corebridge completed the sale of AIG Life Limited (“AIG Life”) to Aviva plc and received gross proceeds of £453 million ($569 million). For further details on this transaction, see Note 4. Laya Healthcare Ltd. (“Laya”) On October 31, 2023 Corebridge completed the sale of Laya to AXA and received gross proceeds of €691 million ($731 million) resulting in a pre-tax gain of $652 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Accounting policies that we believe are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions are considered our critical accounting estimates and are related to the determination of: •fair value measurements of certain financial assets and liabilities; •valuation of market risk benefits (“MRBs”) related to guaranteed benefit features of variable annuity, fixed annuity and fixed index annuity products;valuation of embedded derivative liabilities for fixed index annuity and index universal life products; •valuation of future policy benefit liabilities and recognition of remeasurement gains and losses; •reinsurance assets, including the allowance for credit losses; •goodwill impairment; •allowance for credit losses primarily on loans and available-for-sale fixed maturity securities; and •income tax assets and liabilities, including recoverability of our net deferred tax asset and the predictability of future tax operating profitability of the character necessary to realize the net deferred tax asset. These accounting estimates require the use of assumptions about matters, some of which are highly uncertain at the time of estimation. To the extent actual experience differs from the assumptions used, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially affected. Out-of-period adjustment In the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a $67 million out-of-period adjustment, which increased earnings, primarily related to the correction of net investment income for certain securities. The Company evaluated the impact of the error and out-of-period adjustment and concluded it was not material to any previously issued interim or annual consolidated financial statements and the adjustment is not expected to be material to the year ending December 31, 2024.
