Item 1A. Risk Factors
76 rewritten, 17 added, 13 removed, 486 unchanged
Each of our Global Lifestyle and Global Housing segments receives a substantial portion of its [removed: revenue] [added: revenues] from a few clients.
Examples of important business arrangements include, [removed: at] [added: in] Global Lifestyle, exclusive and non-exclusive relationships with mobile service providers (including carriers, retailers, OEMs and cable operators), dealerships and agents, consumer electronics retailers, appliance retailers (including e-commerce retailers), and financial, insurance and other institutions through which we distribute our products and services.
[removed: At] [added: In] Global Housing, we have exclusive and non-exclusive relationships with mortgage lenders and servicers, manufactured housing lenders, property managers, and financial, insurance and other institutions.
In addition, our clients and other parties with whom we do business may change their strategic priorities or initiatives, including exiting or deprioritizing products, services, programs, distribution channels or lines of business that we service or [removed: support, or they may disintermediate us by developing internal capabilities, products or services that would allow them to service their clients without our involvement, which has][added: support.]
Furthermore, if one or more of our clients or distributors, for example in the [removed: wireless,] [added: mobile,] automotive or mortgage servicing markets, consolidate or align themselves with other companies with whom we do not do business, they may choose to utilize or distribute the products and services of our competitors, which [added: has occurred from time to time and] could materially reduce our revenues and profits.
There is a risk that [removed: purchasers] [added: clients or customers] may be able to obtain more favorable terms and offerings from competitors, vendors or other third parties, including pricing and technology.
As a result, competition may adversely affect the persistency of our policies, our ability to sell products and provide services, maintain client [removed: relationships,] [added: relationships (including significant clients),] and our revenues and results of operations, which has occurred from time to time.
Our competitive position may be impacted if we are unable to deploy, in [removed: a cost effective] [added: an effective, compliant] and competitive manner, technology such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, or if our competitors collect and use data [removed: which] [added: that] we do not have the ability to access or use.
[removed: In order to] [added: To] maintain a competitive position, we must continue to invest in new technologies and new ways to deliver our products and services.
As part of our strategy, we are developing new and innovative products and [removed: services,] [added: services] and enhancing existing offerings.
We are investing in technology, including artificial intelligence, and other capabilities [added: (such as our new Innovation and Device Care Center)] to continuously improve the customer and employee experience, while seeking to increase [removed: efficiencies.][added: efficiency.]
We will continue to incur expenses related to, among other things: investments in digital capabilities and large-scale, critical programs, such as [removed: technology, including global financial] [added: technology] systems and infrastructure; research and development of new products and capabilities; scaling our global operations, including accessing the global talent hubs such as through our Global [removed: Capabilities] [added: Capability] Centers; [removed: and] costs associated with the implementation of new contracts and businesses in runoff or which we have exited or which we expect to fully exit, including sharing [removed: economy, ,] [added: economy;] and improvements in operational efficiency.
In [removed: 2022 and 2023,] [added: recent years,] we announced restructuring initiatives that include realigning our organizational structure and talent to support our business strategy, [removed: which has resulted in severance] and [removed: employee benefits charges, and] accelerating ongoing real estate consolidation efforts to support work-from-home arrangements.
Our long-term strategy depends on successful operational execution and our ability to execute on our [removed: transformational] [added: growth] initiatives, including [removed: acquisitions,] [added: acquisitions and investments in organic growth,] combined with our ability to innovate and develop new products, achieve operating efficiencies, and attract and retain a global [removed: and diverse] workforce.
We believe that our future success depends in substantial part on our ability to attract, recruit, motivate, develop and retain a high-performing workforce, particularly those with specialized industry knowledge or within critical or in-demand areas such as sales, digital, customer experience, data and analytics, [added: AI] and supply chain, across our lines of businesses.
Doing so may be difficult due to many factors, including fluctuations in economic and [added: industry conditions; employee expectations; the effectiveness of our talent strategies and total rewards and wellbeing programs;]
[removed: industry conditions; employee expectations; the effectiveness of our talent strategies] and [removed: total rewards and wellbeing programs; and] fluctuations in the labor market, including rising wages and competition for talent, which has generally increased due to [removed: persistent] labor shortages and wage inflation.
In addition, the global talent market and shift to remote or hybrid work arrangements at many companies, including [removed: us,] [added: ours,] have significantly increased competition for highly-skilled personnel, who are no longer limited to opportunities within a particular geographic area, and may decrease employee engagement.
Acquisitions of businesses and divestitures of non-strategic businesses may not provide us with the benefits that we anticipate, [added: may] require significant effort and expenditures, and [added: may] entail numerous risks, difficulties and uncertainties.
If we experience a business continuity event, such as an earthquake, hurricane, flood, terrorist incident, pandemic, security breach, cybersecurity incident, power loss, telecommunications outage or other systems failure, or other disaster, our ability to continue operations will depend on an effective business continuity and disaster recovery plan, including the safety and continued availability of our [removed: personnel,] [added: personnel including key executives,] vendors and other third parties, and the proper functioning of our telecommunications and other systems and operations, including our device care centers and other facilities.
Our inability to successfully recover from a business continuity event could have a material adverse effect on our [added: business, financial condition and results of operations.]
[removed: See “ – Technology, Cybersecurity and Privacy] Risks – *The failure to effectively maintain and modernize our technology systems and infrastructure and integrate those of acquired businesses could adversely affect our business*.”
For example, we face the risk of [added: the imposition of sanctions, tariffs, trade barriers or other protectionist laws or business practices that favor local competition (including from the United States), increase costs and may otherwise adversely affect our business; inflation and foreign exchange rate fluctuations;] restrictions on currency conversion and the repatriation of non-U.S. investments and earnings; burdens and costs of compliance with a variety of foreign laws and regulations and the associated [removed: risk and costs of non-compliance, including reputational harm; exposure to undeveloped or evolving legal systems, which may result in]
[added: risk and costs of non-compliance, including reputational harm; exposure to undeveloped or evolving legal systems, which may result in] unpredictable or inconsistent application of laws and regulations, including export controls and exposure to commercial, political, legal or regulatory risks such as corruption; political, economic or other instability in countries in which we conduct business, including possible terrorist acts; [removed: the imposition of sanctions, tariffs, trade barriers or other protectionist laws or business practices that favor local competition, increase costs and may otherwise adversely affect our business; inflation and foreign exchange rate fluctuations;] diminished ability to enforce our contractual rights; increased risk of data breaches; differences in cultural environments; changes in regulatory requirements, including changes in regulatory treatment of certain products or services; exposure to local economic conditions and its impact on our clients’ performance and creditworthiness; and a competitive global labor market.
As we continue to scale our global operations and grow our international labor force within Global [removed: Capabilities] [added: Capability] Centers, our business becomes increasingly exposed to these and other risks, including where certain countries or regions have [removed: recently] experienced economic or political [removed: instability, such as in Argentina and Brazil.][added: instability.]
While we conduct diligence and screening for buyers of mobile devices that we sell, and [added: we] change buyers in our program based on diligence reviews, our mobile device buyers may not comply with applicable laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering laws.
We distribute many of our insurance products and services through a variety of channels, including service providers [removed: (including] [added: (such as] device carriers and cable operators), financial institutions, mortgage lenders and servicers, retailers, association groups, [removed: other third-party marketing organizations and, to a limited extent, our own captives and affiliated agents.]
Agents who distribute our products are typically not exclusively dedicated to us, but [added: they] also market the products of our competitors.
Losses are impacted by increases in inflation and supply chain disruptions that increase the cost of materials and labor required to settle claims, [removed: including] [added: primarily] in our Global Housing business.
[removed: *financial] [added: See “ – Macroeconomic, Political and Global Market Risks *– General economic, financial] market and political conditions and conditions in the markets in which we operate may materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.*”
We use modeling tools that help estimate our probable losses, but these projections are based on historical data and other assumptions that may differ materially from actual events, and their reliability and predictive value may decrease as a result of climate [removed: change.]
The withdrawal of other insurers from these or other states may lead to adverse selection and increased use of our products in these areas, and [added: it] may negatively affect our loss experience and increase our costs.
From time to time, regulators, consumer advocacy groups, the media and individual customers may focus their attention on our products and services, [added: or on the broader industries in] which [added: we operate, which] may subject us to negative publicity.
In addition, there is increased [removed: investor] [added: stakeholder] and regulatory focus on sustainability matters, including [removed: diversity, equity and inclusion, and commitment to long-term sustainability] [added: workforce inclusion] and efforts related to climate.
Limited availability of credit, deteriorations of the global mortgage and real estate markets, declines in consumer confidence and consumer spending, including in Europe, increases in prices or in the rate of inflation, periods of high unemployment or labor shortages, persistently low or rapidly increasing interest rates, disruptive geopolitical events, including the Israel-Hamas war, China-Taiwan relations and supply chain disruptions, and other events outside of our control, such as a major epidemic or a pandemic, political or civil unrest, or the possibility of a U.S. government shutdown or default on its debt obligations, could contribute, and in some cases have contributed, to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy and the financial markets, including the market for our [removed: stock, and may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.][added: stock.]
This ability could be affected by various factors, including macroeconomic conditions; inflation; changes in the regulatory environment; changes in industry practices; changes in legal, social or environmental conditions; impacts from operational changes; new [added: products; and new] technologies or domestic or global supply chain or labor issues.
Climate change may make it more difficult to predict and model catastrophes, reducing our ability to accurately price our exposure to such events and mitigate [removed: risks.][added: risks, particularly in our Global Housing business.]
As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] our operations had a significant number of contracts that contain provisions that require the applicable subsidiaries to maintain minimum financial strength ratings, typically from A.M. Best, ranging from “A” or better to “B+” or better, depending on the contract.
For example, the interest rate payable on certain series of our senior notes is subject to increase if either [removed: of] S&P or Moody’s downgrades the credit rating assigned to such series of senior notes to BB+ or below or to Ba1 or below, respectively.
See Note [removed: 19] [added: 18] to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report for additional information on our senior notes and the impact of rating changes.

change.
As stakeholder perceptions of sustainability continue to evolve, we may also face negative publicity based on certain “anti-ESG” sentiment.
In addition, there is uncertainty concerning potential and recent actions by the incoming U.S. administration, including increased or new tariffs that could increase the cost of claims, disrupt supply chains, and impact inflation.
Reserve adjustments have caused volatility in our reported results.
We also access the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (“FHCF”) to reinsure eligible Florida risks.
our customers, vendors and other third parties.
There is also significant uncertainty in the evolving regulatory regime relating to artificial intelligence, which may require substantial resources to modify and maintain business practices to comply with U.S. and non-U.S. laws.
For example, various states have adopted the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC)’s model bulletin, *The Use of Artificial Intelligence Systems by Insurers*.
Internationally, on December 8, 2023, the European Commission, the European Parliament and the European Council reached political agreement on the terms of the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act.
If we fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, which occurs from time to time, we may be subject to investigations, criminal penalties, civil remedies or other adverse consequences, including fines, injunctions, loss of an
For example, the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”), part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, imposes a 15% minimum tax on corporations with annual adjusted financial income exceeding $1 billion and an excise tax of 1% on stock repurchases of publicly traded U.S. corporations (“Applicable Corporation”).
Although we are not currently an Applicable Corporation, we are monitoring CAMT for future applicability.
While we do not currently expect a material tax impact in fiscal 2025, we are monitoring developments and evaluating the potential impact of Pillar Two on future years.
If we were unable for any reason to comply with any new or revised requirements, including the RSA, it could result in substantial costs to us and ongoing reporting and monitoring

Reserve adjustments may cause volatility in our reported results, such as the reserve reductions in 2023 compared to reserve increases in 2022.
To a large extent, we do not currently hedge foreign currency risk.
In 2022, we identified and disclosed certain accounting errors.
We also access the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (“FHCF”) and the Reinsurance to Assist Policyholders (“RAP”) program to reinsure eligible Florida risks, with the FHCF providing coverage each year and the RAP program providing coverage for the 2023 wind season.
Premiums charged for reinsurance coverage increased significantly in 2023 but have moderated slightly in 2024.
For example, in 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act (the “IRA”), which introduced a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax applicable to corporations in certain situations and a 1% excise tax on corporate share repurchases, among other things, was enacted.
Compliance with the IRA may require the collection of information not regularly produced within the Company, the use of estimates in our Consolidated Financial Statements, the exercise of significant judgment in accounting for its provisions and increase costs.
As part of the OECD’s Global Pillar II rules, the OECD recommended a 15% global minimum tax on adjusted financial reported income.
The overall impact of the IRA and the OECD’s Global Pillar I and II rules is uncertain due to the ambiguities in the application of certain provisions, the impact of future guidance, interpretations or rules issued by government agencies and potential court decisions interpreting the legislation.
Future changes in tax laws, including changes in the application or interpretation of the IRA, the OECD’s Global Pillar I and II rules, or increases to the corporate tax rate, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

[removed: *Segment Information*][added: Segment Information]
As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] we had two reportable operating segments which are defined based on the manner in which the Company’s chief operating decision maker, our CEO, reviews the business to assess performance and allocate resources, and which align to the nature of the products and services offered:
- Global Lifestyle: includes mobile device solutions (including extended service contracts, insurance policies and related services), extended service contracts and related services for consumer electronics and appliances, and [removed: credit] [added: financial services] and other insurance products (referred to as “Connected Living”); and vehicle protection services, commercial equipment services and other related services (referred to as “Global Automotive”); and
We define Adjusted EBITDA, our segment measure of profitability, as net income [removed: from continuing operations,] excluding net realized gains (losses) on investments and fair value changes to equity securities, non-core operations (which consists of certain businesses which we have fully exited or expect to fully exit, including the long-tail commercial liability businesses (sharing economy and small commercial businesses), [removed: as well as] certain legacy long-duration insurance policies and our operations in mainland [removed: China),] [added: China (not Hong Kong)),] restructuring costs related to strategic exit activities (outside of normal periodic restructuring and cost management activities), Assurant Health runoff operations, interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, as well as other highly variable or unusual items.

Claims and benefits payable reserves for short duration contracts include (1) case reserves for known claims which are unpaid as of the balance sheet date; (2) IBNR reserves for claims where the insured event has occurred but has not been [removed: reported to us as of the balance sheet date; and (3) loss adjustment expense reserves for the expected handling costs of settling the claims.]

*Consolidated net income* increased $117.7 million, or 18%, to $760.2 million for Twelve Months 2024 from $642.5 million for Twelve Months 2023, primarily due to higher Global Housing segment earnings, lower impact of foreign exchange, and lower losses from non-core operations and lower restructuring costs, partially offset by higher reportable catastrophes and higher depreciation expense.
*Global Lifestyle Adjusted EBITDA* decreased $18.9 million, or 2%, to $773.4 million for Twelve Months 2024 from $792.3 million for Twelve Months 2023, primarily driven by elevated claims costs in Global Automotive and approximately $25.0 million of investments in new client programs and capabilities in Connected Living to support future growth.
This decrease was partially offset by a modest increase in Connected Living primarily due to increased contributions in Global Financial Services, higher investment income and improved results within extended service contracts.
Excluding reportable catastrophes, Adjusted EBITDA increased 34% due to top-line growth and expense leverage within Homeowners, more favorable prior year reserve development, lower reinsurance costs, and growth in Renters from the property management channel.
In addition, the California Wildfires began in January 2025, causing significant damage throughout the Los Angeles metropolitan area and surrounding regions.
At the time of this filing, the claims process continues and our current view is that reportable catastrophes from the California Wildfires are expected to approach or slightly exceed our catastrophe reinsurance program per event retention of $150 million.
There is inherent variability in our estimates of early loss projections and claims severity, and therefore the estimate may change as additional information emerges.

Consolidated net income increased $117.7 million, or 18%, to $760.2 million for Twelve Months 2024 from $642.5 million for Twelve Months 2023, primarily driven by higher earnings in Global Housing, a $31.0 million favorable change in after-tax foreign exchange related gains (losses), a $32.2 million after-tax decline in losses related to our non-core operations and a $22.9 million reduction in after-tax restructuring costs related to our previously announced restructuring plan.

Year Ended December 31, 2024 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2023
The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was partially offset by higher net investment income across Global Lifestyle, as well as improved contributions from our financial services business and improved results within extended service contracts.
Fees and other income increased $262.5 million, or 22%, primarily due to contributions from newly launched global mobile trade-in programs.
Net earned premiums increased $143.4 million, or 2%, primarily driven by growth from global mobile device protection programs and newly launched program within financial services in Connected Living, partially offset by a decline in extended service contracts in Connected Living and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange.
Cost of sales increased $277.4 million, or 49% mainly due to newly launched global mobile programs.
Policyholder benefits increased $130.7 million, or 8%, primarily due to elevated claims costs in Global Automotive, as described above, and from higher claims in the global mobile device protection business and global financial services in Connected Living, partially offset by lower losses for extended service contracts in Connected Living in line with the decrease in net earned premiums.
General expenses increased $44.7 million, or 4%, due to higher employee-related and information
technology expenses to support growth, as well as higher expenses relating to investments in new client programs and capabilities in Connected Living, as described above.
Selling and underwriting expenses decreased $18.9 million, or 0.4% mainly due to lower commission expenses for extended service contracts in Connected Living and Global Automotive, partially offset by higher commissions from global mobile device protection programs.

Year Ended December 31, 2024 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2023
Twelve Months 2024 included $106.7 million of favorable non-catastrophe prior year reserve development compared to $54.1 million in Twelve Months 2023.
*Consolidated net income* increased $365.9 million, or 132%, to $642.5 million for Twelve Months 2023 from $276.6 million for Twelve Months 2022, primarily due to higher Global Housing segment earnings, including lower reportable catastrophes (defined as individual catastrophic events that generate losses in excess of $5.0 million pre-tax, net of reinsurance and client profit sharing adjustments, and including reinstatement and other premiums), and lower net unrealized losses from changes in the fair value of equity securities.
*Global Lifestyle Adjusted EBITDA* decreased $17.1 million, or 2%, to $792.3 million for Twelve Months 2023 from $809.4 million for Twelve Months 2022.
The decline was driven by Global Automotive as elevated claims costs were partially offset by higher investment income.
Connected Living results were up modestly, as stronger mobile device protection results in North America and higher investment income were partially offset by lower mobile results in Asia Pacific.
Excluding reportable catastrophes, Adjusted EBITDA increased $267.8 million, or 64%, mainly due to lower non-catastrophe loss experience, including $54.1 million of favorable prior year reserve development in 2023 compared
to $15.5 million of unfavorable prior year reserve development in 2022.
Strong top-line growth in Homeowners and expense leverage from scale and operational efficiencies also drove performance.
securities, commercial mortgage obligations and bonds are more likely to be prepaid or redeemed as borrowers seek to borrow at lower interest rates.
The IBNR associated with the best estimate is then allocated to accident year based on a weighting of the underlying actuarial methods.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, we performed a quantitative assessment for the Global Lifestyle and Global Housing reporting units given the uncertainty in macro-economic conditions and inflation concerns.
The determination of fair value of the reporting units requires many estimates and assumptions.
These estimates and assumptions include earnings and required capital projections discussed above, discount rates, terminal growth rates, operating income and dividend forecasts for each reporting unit and the weighting assigned to the results of each valuation method included in the fair value calculation.
Changes in certain assumptions could have a significant impact on the goodwill impairment assessment.
For the fourth quarter of 2023 quantitative assessment, had the net book value for the reporting units exceeded its estimated fair value, the Company would have recognized a goodwill impairment loss for the difference up to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

Consolidated net income increased $365.9 million, or 132%, to $642.5 million for Twelve Months 2023 from $276.6 million for Twelve Months 2022, primarily driven by higher lender-placed net earned premiums and lower non-catastrophe loss experience in our Homeowners business within Global Housing, a $104.3 million decrease in after-tax net unrealized losses from changes in the fair value of equity securities and $47.6 million of lower after-tax reportable catastrophes.
Also contributing to the increase was a $24.7 million after-tax decline in losses related to our non-core operations and a $14.7 million reduction in after-tax restructuring costs related to our previously announced restructuring plan.
The decline was partially offset by higher net investment income across Global Lifestyle and stronger mobile device protection results in North America.
Net earned premiums increased $410.3 million, or 6%, primarily driven by continued domestic organic growth from prior period sales in our Global Automotive business across all distribution channels.
Net earned premium from Connected Living increased modestly, mainly from organic growth across all products, partially offset by the impact of a previously disclosed mobile program contract change that resulted in lower retention of premiums net of reinsurance, as well as the run-off of certain global mobile programs.
Fees and other income increased $89.2 million, or 8%, mainly driven by higher average selling prices on mobile trade-in programs, as well as contributions from new programs, partially offset by a mobile program contract change related to our in-store mobile service and repair business.
Underwriting, selling, general and administrative expenses increased $359.2 million, or 6%, mainly due to higher commission expenses from growth across Global Lifestyle, primarily in Global Automotive, higher cost of sales in our global mobile business and higher information technology and employee-related expenses to support growth, partially offset by a mobile program contract change related to our in-store mobile service and repair business.
Policyholder benefits increased $251.3 million, or 19%, primarily due to ongoing elevated claims costs in Global Automotive, as described above, partially offset by a mobile program contract change that resulted in lower retention of losses net of reinsurance.
The increase was partially offset by exits from certain international markets and higher catastrophe reinsurance costs primarily from restructuring the program.
The increase in total revenues was partially offset by a decrease in fees and other income of $4.6 million, or 3%, mainly driven by a decline in Renters and Other from lower installment fees.
Underwriting, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $13.9 million, or 2%, primarily due to exits from certain international markets, higher reimbursements related to the National Flood Insurance Program for processing flood claims for Hurricane Ian and a discretionary benefit from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
The increase in the loss was primarily due to lower net investment income, mostly due to lower invested assets from the use of the Global Preneed sale proceeds in Twelve Months 2022 for share repurchases, and higher employee-related expenses.
Total revenues decreased $5.8 million, or 21%, to $21.6 million for Twelve Months 2023 from $27.4 million for Twelve Months 2022, primarily driven by a decrease in net investment income of $5.5 million, or 20%, mostly due to lower invested assets from the use of the Global Preneed sale proceeds in Twelve Months 2022 for share repurchases, partially offset by higher cash yields.

[removed: Typically,] [added: Many of] our agreements in Global Lifestyle are [added: exclusive and] multi-year with terms generally between three and five years and allow us to integrate our administrative systems with those of our clients.
Global Lifestyle is dependent on a few clients, in particular mobile service providers, and a reduction in business with or the loss of [removed: any] one or more such clients could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.
The worldwide used and refurbished smartphone market is growing, [removed: especially in newer markets like India,] driven by the cost and availability of new devices and sustainability-conscious customers.

We are a premier global protection company that partners with the world’s leading brands to safeguard and service connected devices, homes and automobiles.
We leverage data-driven technology solutions to provide exceptional customer experiences.
*2024 Highlights*
We continued our momentum in 2024 with strong profitable growth led by sustained outperformance within Global Housing, as well as underlying growth within Connected Living which was muted by investments in new client programs and capabilities.
The combination of our strong capital position, investments to support growth and robust shareholder returns were a testament to our balanced capital management and strong cash flows of our businesses.
We completed contract renewals with several key clients including our major U.S. mobile device protection clients, expanded offerings with existing clients and onboarded new client programs across Global Lifestyle and Global Housing.
We continued to drive ongoing expense leverage from our scale and operating efficiencies supported by ongoing technology innovation.
In October 2024, we opened our Innovation and Device Care Center, which supports our mobile device lifecycle solutions in Global Lifestyle and the development of new and innovative ways to leverage automation, robotics and artificial intelligence.
Assurant is a purpose-driven company that remains committed to integrating sustainability into our long-term strategy.
In 2024, we introduced a new Sustainability vision focused on three areas: Connected Communities, Respected Resources and Protected Planet.
We view these sustainability priorities as directly tied to how we deliver for our employees, our clients and end-consumers in support of Assurant’s broader growth and innovation objectives.
Moving forward, we will lean into the following areas as we set our sights on advancing our impact:
*Connected Communities.* As a purpose-driven company, we help our customers maximize opportunities in a connected world in a way that contributes to a thriving society.
We do this by focusing on creating an inclusive workplace where employees have opportunities to learn and grow; supporting communities through investing our time, skills and resources where needed; and creating superior experiences for our customers.
*Respected Resources.* We look for opportunities to embed circularity across our operations and to integrate programs and services into our suite of offerings that embrace circular practices to help our customers live connected lives.
This mindset has led us to become an industry leader in the transition effort from a linear to a circular economy for mobile devices including our approach to responsible recycling.
*Protected Planet.* Across our enterprise, we integrate climate actions into our long-term strategy, global facilities and product and service offerings, and work with our operations and partners to minimize negative environmental impacts.
We also sell repaired or refurbished mobile and other electronic devices, as well as provide Certified Pre-Owned (“CPO”) devices to our clients to fulfill their insurance and consumer needs.
In addition, higher interest rates have impacted affordability of finance and insurance products and lowered attachment rates.
The commercial equipment segment continues to expand, partially mitigating challenges in our U.S. auto business.
In addition, new vehicle sales continue to grow in some markets internationally.

along with independent specialty agents.
2024 reinsurance premiums for the total program are estimated to be $188.9 million pre-tax, as of December 31, 2024, compared to $207.2 million pre-tax for 2023, reflecting impacts from changing the timing of program placement in this initial year of transition to a single placement date, as well as favorable underlying rates from improved reinsurance market conditions.
We believe in fostering an inclusive and performance-based culture to drive sustained profitable growth through innovation.
As of December 31, 2024, Assurant had approximately 14,200 employees representing, more than 80 nationalities, with a presence in 21 markets globally.
Our global workforce spans a wide range of roles and skills.
Our talent strategy is focused on empowering employees to learn, grow and thrive, equipping the business with the talent needed to deliver on our long-term strategy, and recognize and reward performance.
(1) Beginning in 2024, we revised the definition of employer turnover to include voluntary turnover only.
We believe this revised approach to exclude any involuntary actions provides better insight into the program and strategies we can take as an organization to impact employee retention.
designed to expand opportunities for anonymous, real-time feedback between managers and employees.
Fostering an Inclusive and Performance Driven Culture
Building an inclusive culture is more than the right thing to do - it’s a business imperative - a key enabler of growth and innovation, rooted in our belief that more inclusive teams deliver stronger performance.
We are committed to foster a sense of belonging at Assurant.
Fair Pay
Assurant is committed to fair pay.
Additionally, there were several enhancements to benefits starting in 2024,
A majority of our employees work virtually on a full-time or part-time basis.
In 2024, this included the ongoing integration of AI tools to enhance and improve the employee and customer experience with the appropriate training and reporting to ensure we effectively govern deployed solutions and continuously learn.
We are a leading global business services company that supports, protects and connects major consumer purchases.
We support the advancement of the connected world by partnering with the world’s leading brands to develop innovative solutions and to deliver an enhanced customer experience.
Our vision is to be the leading global business services company supporting the advancement of the connected world.
As our offerings continue to expand, we expect to generate a more diversified mix of business and earnings.
*2023 Highlights*
We achieved significant profitable growth in 2023, maintained a strong capital position and generated significant momentum throughout our businesses.
Our results reflect our focus on further strengthening our business portfolio and driving operational excellence, including implementing digital-first initiatives across our operations, while accelerating innovation and investing in our businesses.
Through active portfolio management, we exited businesses that are not core to our long-term strategy.
We continued to expand partnerships with key clients and win new clients, deliver new and innovative solutions and execute on our commitment to being a socially responsible company for our stakeholders.
We advanced our goals to reduce our environmental impact, and we remained focused on engaging and developing our diverse talent pool.
We realized benefits from the actions we announced in 2022 to simplify our business portfolio and corporate real estate and realign our organizational structure, allowing us to reinvest throughout the enterprise.
We amended and extended our 2022 restructuring plan to include additional actions within these initiatives, including further consolidation of our real estate portfolio and additional changes to our organizational structure, which we believe will drive greater operational efficiency to support our long-term profitable growth and value creation.
We expect to complete these actions by mid-2024.
In November 2023, we realigned our executive team to support our global growth strategy by appointing Keith Meier as Chief Financial Officer and Francesca Luthi as Chief Operating Officer.
The appointments represented our ability to deploy our deep bench of talent and evolve from a position of strength.
In February 2023, we issued $175.0 million of 6.10% senior notes due 2026 and used the net proceeds, together with cash on hand, to redeem a portion of the $225.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of our 4.20% senior notes due 2023.
Assurant is a purpose-driven company committed to making meaningful advancements each year to integrate our sustainability efforts into our long-term strategy to support our business outcomes, our global business operations and our product and service offerings.
In 2023, we continued to make progress on building a more sustainable company for all of our stakeholders.
Our sustainability strategic framework centers on four pillars against which we track our progress on sustainability topics that most impact Assurant’s value, society and the environment, as discussed below.
Each of these pillars is dynamic, aligned to our long-term business strategy, and strengthens the communities in which we live and work.
*Responsible employer.* We are a responsible employer with a culture that believes diversity, equity and inclusion are critical to support business growth, and we recognize the importance of investing in talent as we look to deliver a superior employee experience.
*Impact on society.* We actively engage to strengthen the communities where we live and work worldwide while operating our business, managing our investments, and evolving our product offerings to ensure we maintain a strong environmental commitment.
*Customer commitment.* We deliver differentiated experiences by being customer-centric and anticipating the needs of the people we serve.
*Integrity and ethics.* We adhere to unwavering standards of integrity, ethics, governance, privacy and information security.
Our longer-term strategic planning process, overseen by our Board, prioritized three multiyear ESG strategic focus areas:
- Talent: We aspire to foster a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture to drive innovation for the benefit of all stakeholders;
- Products: We aspire to help customers thrive in a connected world; and
- Climate: We aspire to operate in ways that minimize our carbon footprint and align our commitments to enhance climate action and environmental performance.
We also sell repaired or refurbished mobile and other electronic devices.
Most of our distribution agreements are exclusive.
As a general trend, we believe the average smartphone replacement cycle is lengthening, which may increase attachment rates for mobile protection offerings, including for our large, installed customer base.
However, this trend may be reversed based on new technology and innovation.
OEMs with sufficient inventory are starting to increase incentives, which should help mitigate headwinds from higher interest rates which have had an adverse impact on attachment rates for our core products.
However, we expect U.S. new vehicle sales to increase modestly, thereby providing more opportunities for product sales as an
offset to this interest rate pressure.
We continue to expand our footprint in the U.S. by adding new dealership clients and growing our dealer and third-party relationship networks.
In addition, we have successfully added clients internationally where new vehicle sales continue to grow in most markets.
In addition, we provide tenant bonds as an alternative to security deposits, which allows our
The 2023 catastrophe reinsurance program also included Caribbean catastrophe coverage providing up to $55.0 million, in excess of a $5.0 million retention.
For our 2024 catastrophe reinsurance program, underlying rates are favorable from improved reinsurance market conditions.
