Notes to Condensed Financial Information of Registrant (Parent Company Only)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) and, on an equity basis, its subsidiaries and affiliates. The Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The financial information of the Parent Company should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Ameriprise Financial”). Parent Company revenues and expenses, other than compensation and benefits and interest and debt expense, are primarily related to intercompany transactions with subsidiaries and affiliates.

During 2022, Ameriprise Financial identified an error related to the shadow unearned revenue liability balance associated with universal life insurance products. Ameriprise Financial evaluated the error and determined that the impact was not material to its results for any prior period, but that correcting the cumulative impact of the error in the current period would be material to total comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2022. Accordingly, and for comparability, Ameriprise Financial revised its prior period Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures impacted. The Parent Company also revised the prior period Condensed Financial Statements and related disclosures impacted. A summary of the revision to the Parent Company’s previously reported Condensed Financial Statements is presented below:

The change in fair value of derivative instruments used as hedges is reflected in the Parent Company’s Condensed Statements of Operations. For certain derivatives, the change in the hedged item is reflected in the subsidiaries’ Statements of Operations. The change in fair value of certain derivatives used to economically hedge risk related to guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (“GMWB”) provisions is included in Benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses, while the underlying benefits, claims, losses and settlement expenses are reflected in Equity in earnings of subsidiaries, net of tax.
