Item 1A. Risk Factors
22 rewritten, 50 added, 4 removed, 128 unchanged
The following is a summary of the material risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business, financial [removed: condition] [added: condition,] and results of operations.
A future adverse judgment in connection with [added: any] such [added: civil] litigation [added: described above] could result in substantial damages.
Future changes in rules, regulations or interpretations of existing rules and [removed: regulations] [added: regulations, or significant adverse judgments in litigation,] could require us to reclassify all or a portion of our agents as employees and the impact could significantly increase our operating costs and negatively impact our insurance business.
The use of third-party [removed: vendors] [added: vendors, including independent sales agents,] to support the Company's operations makes the Company susceptible to the operational risk of those third parties, which could lower revenues, increase costs, reduce profits, disrupt business, or damage the Company’s reputation.
The Company utilizes third-party [removed: vendors] [added: vendors, including independent sales agents,] to provide certain business [removed: support] services and functions, which exposes the Company to risks outside the control of the [removed: Company that may lead to business disruptions.][added: Company.]
The reliance on these third-party vendors creates a number of business risks, such as the risk that the Company may not maintain service quality, control or effective management of the outsourced business operations and that the Company cannot control the [added: data,] information systems, facilities or networks of such third-party vendors.
Additionally, the Company is at risk of being unable to meet legal, regulatory, financial or customer obligations if the [added: data,] information systems, facilities or networks of a third-party vendor are disrupted, damaged or fail, whether due to physical disruptions, such as fire, natural disaster, pandemic or power outage, or due to cybersecurity incidents, ransomware or other impacts to vendors, including labor strikes, political unrest and terrorist attacks.
[removed: The Company may be adversely affected by a third-party vendor who] operates in a poorly controlled manner or fails to deliver contracted services, which could lower revenues, increase costs, reduce profits, disrupt business, or damage the Company’s reputation.
An increase in interest rates could result in certain policyholders surrendering their life or annuity policies for cash, thereby potentially requiring our insurance subsidiaries to liquidate invested assets if other sources of liquidity are [removed: not available to meet their obligations.]
The principal sources of our insurance subsidiaries’ liquidity are insurance premiums, as well as investment income, maturities, [removed: repayments] [added: repayments,] and other cash flow from our investment portfolio.
Additionally, dividends paid by insurance subsidiaries are restricted based on [added: regulations by their states of domicile.]
The availability and cost of additional financing or capital depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, the general availability of credit or capital, the volume of trading activities, the overall availability of credit to the insurance [removed: industry and] [added: industry,] our credit ratings and credit capacity.
[removed: If our internal sources of liquidity prove to] be insufficient, we may not be able to successfully obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.
In addition, government, [removed: business] [added: business,] and consumer reactions to public health events could result in material negative impacts to our business and operations.
In addition, climate change and climate change regulation may affect the prospects of companies and other entities whose securities we [removed: hold,] [added: hold] or our willingness to continue to hold their securities.
Regulatory agencies have broad administrative power over numerous aspects of our business, including premium rates for our life, Medicare Supplement and other supplement health products, as well as other terms and conditions included in the insurance policies offered by our insurance subsidiaries, marketing practices, advertising, [added: use of emerging technologies,] agent licensing, [added: independent agent practices,] policy forms, capital adequacy, solvency, reserves and permitted investments.

Non-compliance with laws or regulations related to customer and consumer privacy and information security, including a failure to ensure that [removed: our business associates] [added: third parties] with access to sensitive customer and consumer information maintain its confidentiality, could materially adversely affect our reputation and business operations.
HIPAA additionally requires that we impose privacy and security requirements on our [added: third-party] business associates.
Negative publicity through traditional media, internet, social [removed: media] [added: media,] and other public [removed: forums] [added: forums, including short seller reports and allegations of independent agent misconduct] could damage our brand or [removed: reputation and] [added: reputation, which could] adversely impact our [removed: agent recruiting efforts, the] ability to [added: recruit and retain agents, our ability to] market our [removed: products] [added: products,] and the persistency of in-force policies.
[removed: We may fail to meet our commitments or targets, and] [added: In addition,] our [removed: policies] [added: policies,] and processes to evaluate and manage these standards in coordination with other business priorities may not prove completely effective or satisfy investors, customers, regulators, or others.
[removed: Additionally, we could fail] [added: Failure] to [removed: report accurately] [added: meet,] or achieve progress [removed: on] [added: on,] our [removed: metrics] [added: expectations,] on a timely basis, or at all, [removed: which in-turn] could adversely affect our reputation, business, financial [removed: performance] [added: performance,] and growth.
In September 2024, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) notified us that it had determined that all sales agents affiliated with State General Agent Simon Arias were employees, not independent contractors, of Globe Life Inc. and/or AIL.
Such determination is not binding but we expect any potential civil action brought by the EEOC would include such an allegation.
We employ controls and procedures designed to facilitate service quality of our third party vendors; however, such controls and procedures cannot be 100% effective in all cases.
The Company may be adversely affected by a third-party vendor who

Extensive federal and state laws regulate our business, imposing certain requirements that independent sales agents must follow in dealing with clients.
Misconduct of our independent sales agents could result in violations of law by, or claims against, us or our subsidiaries.
From time to time, we are subject to private litigation as a result of alleged misconduct by independent agents.
We employ controls and procedures designed to prevent and detect agent misconduct; however, such controls and procedures cannot be 100% effective in all cases.
Instances of misconduct or non-compliance or violations of laws or regulations by our independent sales agents could result in adverse findings in either examinations or litigation and subject us to sanctions, monetary liabilities, restrictions on or loss of the operation of our business or reputational harm, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We have become subject to, and may in the future be subject to, short selling strategies driving down the market price of our common stock.
Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own but may have borrowed with the intention of buying identical securities back at a later date.
A short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale.
Because it is in the short seller’s best interests for the price of the securities to decline, some short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, opinions or characterizations regarding the relevant issuer, its business prospects and similar matters calculated to or which may create negative market momentum, which may permit them to obtain profits for themselves as a result of selling the stock short.
Companies, like us, that are subject to unfavorable allegations, even if untrue, may have to expend a significant amount of resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend themselves, including in connection with securityholder litigation against Globe Life Inc. or investigations by regulators related to or prompted by such allegations.
Since April 2024, we have been and continue to be the target of several short sellers who have published reports making allegations about the Company, which resulted in a significant decline in the price of our common stock.
In addition, these reports resulted in significant negative publicity against us, damaged our reputation, and exposed us to securities class action litigation.
We have already expended significant resources to defend and repair our reputation.
We will continue to defend against any unfounded and unsubstantiated claims about our business, our disclosures, and the integrity of our financial statements, which may require us to expend significant resources.
We may be subject to additional short seller reports and activity in the future.
The publication of any such commentary regarding us may bring about a temporary, or long term, decline in the market price of our common stock.
No assurances can be made that similar declines in the market price of our common stock or negative publicity will not occur in the future, in connection with such commentary by short sellers or otherwise.

Recent volatility in the trading price of our common stock has and can be expected to result in securities class action litigation.
In April 2024, the trading price of our common stock dropped following the publication of certain short seller reports.
As of the date of this Report, one putative securities class action has been filed against Globe Life Inc. and we expect that other putative class action claims may be filed as well.
While we intend to defend such actions vigorously, any judgment against us or any future stockholder litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our businesses are heavily regulated and changes in regulation or regulatory scrutiny may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operation.
Regulatory authorities also have the power to conduct investigations, and to bring administrative or judicial proceedings against us, which could result in suspension or revocation of our licenses, cease and desist orders, fines, civil penalties, disgorgement, criminal penalties or other disciplinary action that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operation.
Press coverage and other public statements that allege wrongdoing, even if untrue, can lead to increased regulatory inquiries or investigations including any that may arise in connection with the subpoenas from U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Pennsylvania seeking documents related to sales practices by certain of our independent sales agents contracted to sell American Income Life Insurance Company policies.

| [removed: ] [added: ] | | | | | | How Globe Life Views Its Operations. Globe Life Inc. is the holding company for a group of insurance companies that market primarily individual life and supplemental health insurance to lower middle to middle-income households throughout the United States. We view our operations by segments, which are the insurance product lines of [removed: life,] [added: life and] supplemental health, and [removed: annuities, and] the investment segment that supports the product lines. [removed: Segments are aligned based on their common characteristics, comparability of the profit margins, and management techniques used to operate each segment.] | | |
| [removed: ] [added: ] | | | | | | Insurance Product Line Segments. The insurance product line segments involve the marketing, underwriting, and administration of policies. Each product line is further [removed: segmented] [added: subdivided] by the various distribution channels that market the insurance policies.

Whether analyzing profitability of a segment as a whole, or the individual distribution channels within the segment, the measure of profitability used by management is the underwriting margin, as seen below: | | |

GL 2024 FORM 10-K
Summary of Operations. Net income increased 10% to $1.07 billion in 2024, compared with $971 million in 2023.
Net operating income increased 8% to $1.11 billion in 2024, compared with $1.03 billion in 2023, due to a 26% increase in excess investment income as well as a 13% increase in life underwriting margin.
Net operating income is primarily comprised of insurance underwriting margin plus excess investment income and annuity and other income, offset by operating expenses, after tax and, as such, is considered a non-GAAP measure.
As previously noted, a component of insurance underwriting margin is policy obligations, which includes for each reporting period the change in the liability for future policy benefits (LFPB).
If actual mortality, morbidity, and lapse experience equals our expected assumptions used in the development of our liability for future policy benefits, there would be no impact to our financial results.
Actual experience can have a material impact on financial results to the extent it significantly deviates from the expected assumptions which are used to develop our estimates of the liability for future policy benefits and amortization of the deferred acquisition cost asset (DAC).
For example, deviations in actual versus expected lapses in the early policy years tend to have a larger impact on DAC amortization than LFPB change in reserves.
Conversely, deviations in actual versus expected lapses in the later policy years typically have a larger impact on LFPB change in reserves than DAC amortization.
This is due to the release of DAC and LFPB where DAC capitalization in earlier years is amortizing over time and the LFPB is increasing over time as the policy stays inforce.
Disaggregated rollforwards of our present value of expected future net premiums and our expected future policy benefits are presented within *[Note 6—Policy Liabilities](#i547eaa9ead03449595972dbc9cd7cdf6_190)*, which include disclosure of remeasurement gain (loss) for the effect of actual variances from expected experience and the changes in assumptions (mortality, morbidity, and lapses) on future cash flows.
The Company performed an annual review of its assumptions in the third quarter of 2024 that resulted in favorable changes to its mortality and lapse assumptions on life and unfavorable changes to morbidity assumptions on health.
In our life segment mortality assumptions generally decreased across most channels in line with recent experience consistent with decreasing levels of excess deaths.
Lapse rate assumptions in the life segment were slightly increased across all channels.
For the health segment, morbidity assumptions were increased, causing higher future policy benefit reserves.
The assumption review process of the life and health segments resulted in a $46.3 million net remeasurement gain for the period ended December 31, 2024 as compared to a $3.2 million net remeasurement gain for the period ended December 31, 2023 and a $36.5 million net remeasurement loss for the period ended December 31, 2022.
Excluding the impact of assumption changes, the Company's results for actual variances from expected experience for both life and health produced a $57.4 million net remeasurement gain for the period ended December 31, 2024, as compared to a $38.0 million net remeasurement gain for the period ended December 31, 2023 and a $4.6 million net remeasurement gain for the period ended December 31, 2022.

In 2024, the life insurance segment underwriting margin increased $160 million compared with 2023.
This was primarily a result of increased premiums and favorable policy obligations as a percent of premium due to a remeasurement gain resulting from the assumption updates in 2024.
In 2023, the life insurance segment underwriting margin increased $63 million when compared with 2022.
Excess investment income increased $34 million in 2024 compared with 2023, resulting from growth in our invested assets and increased yields due to higher interest rates.
In 2023, excess investment income increased $26 million compared with 2022.
In 2024, underwriting margin in the health segment decreased to $372 million due to higher claim utilization, compared with $378 million in 2023 and $377 million in 2022.

First-year collected premiums are lower than net sales over the prior 12 months because premiums are not collected on lapsed policies after the date of lapse.
Cancellations are not included in lapses.
Approximately 90% of our premiums are collected monthly; however, other premium payment options such as quarterly and annual are offered by the Company and may be elected by the policyholder.
The majority of premiums are paid by way of automatic draft or electronic payment from our policyholders and to a lesser extent from other payment methods such as check, credit card, and worksite payroll deduction.
Excluding our Direct to Consumer Division, we sell our policies primarily through independently contracted agents (“agents”) who earn commissions in accordance with contracts they have with the respective insurance subsidiary of the Company.
These contract arrangements with agents cover commission structures and rates, contract periods, credit terms for settlement of agent advance accounts, vesting rights in future renewal commissions upon termination of contracts and responsibility for certain premium collections.
Contract terms with agents vary, but generally commissions are earned over the life of the policy as premiums are paid.
The results included herein reflect the adoption of ASU 2018-12, *Financial Services - Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts.* Globe Life Inc. implemented the standard on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective transition method at adoption.
As a result of this election, the prior year figures have been retrospectively adjusted as of January 1, 2021 with significant impacts to shareholders' equity, net income, underwriting margins, and net operating income.
While the impacts of the new accounting guidance are significant, we do not consider it a fundamental change to the overall business.
Additional information on the effects of the adoption has been included in *[Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies](#i978255a8c505469ca00e0a1c1e3bcb15_58)*.
In 2022, net income decreased 13% from $1.03 billion in 2021.
In 2022, net operating income decreased 3% from $994 million in 2021.
Net operating income is the consolidated total of segment profits after tax and as such is considered a non-GAAP measure.

The results for each of the years presented above are impacted, as previously noted, by the reserve development and assumption changes in the third quarter of 2023, 2022, and 2021.
In 2022, the life insurance segment underwriting margin decreased $32 million when compared with 2021, which was a result of a higher remeasurement loss resulting from assumption updates in 2022 than in 2021, offset by increased premiums.
Underwriting margin increased to $1.19 billion in 2023, compared to $1.13 billion for the same period in 2022.
| Commissions, premium taxes, and non-deferred acquisition expenses | | | 338,758 | | | | | | 11 | | | | | | 299,453 | | | | | | 10 | | | | | | 274,475 | | | | | | 10 | | |
Life insurance products are marketed through several distribution channels.
The
underwriting margin, as a percent of premium, was 45% for the year ended December 31, 2023, down from 46% in the prior year due to higher acquisition costs.
In recent years, production from electronic media, which is comprised of sales through both the internet and inbound phone calls to our call center, has grown faster than direct mail response as customer preferences have focused marketing activity to internet and mobile technology.
DTC’s underwriting margin, as a percent of premium, was 24% for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 22% for the same period in 2022, and 2% below the 26% underwriting margin percentage for 2021.
The underwriting margin as a percent of premium was 33%, up from 31% for the year ended 2022, but down slightly from 34% for 2021.
The decrease in 2022 from 2021 is due primarily to higher acquisition costs.
With the division's ability to return to face-to-face customer interaction and the option of virtual sales, the Company continues to project total life net sales to increase in 2024 as compared to the prior year.
In addition to the aforementioned geographic expansion, we have also started a campaign of market expansion to increase our agency presence in cities where we currently have offices, but not enough to properly serve the community, region, area and city.
These tend to be larger geographic cities which will help create long-term sustainable agency growth.
The following table presents underwriting margin data for health insurance.
| Commissions, premium taxes, and non-deferred acquisition expenses | | | 220,392 | | | | | | 16 | | | | | | 206,544 | | | | | | 16 | | | | | | 180,748 | | | | | | 15 | | |
Health premium increased 3% in 2023 to $1.32 billion when compared to 2022.
In 2022, health premium rose 7% to $1.28 billion when compared to 2021.
Health underwriting margin increased slightly from $377 million in 2022 to $378 million in 2023 and increased 7% from $352 million in 2021 to $377 million in 2022 primarily due to growth in premiums.
Globe Life markets supplemental health insurance products through a number of distribution channels.
| Average producing agents | | | 1,334 | | | | | | 1,210 | | | | | | 1,213 | | | | | | 124 | | | | | | 10 | | | | | | (3) | | | | | | — | | |
In 2023, health premium income was flat.
Health net sales for 2023 increased by $4 million or 15% from 2022.
The Company's other distribution channels, while primarily focused on selling life insurance, also market health products.
ANNUITIES
Our fixed annuity balances at the end of 2023 and 2022 were $773.0 million and $954.3 million, respectively.
Underwriting margin was $8.5 million for 2023, $10.5 million for 2022, and $9.8 million for 2021.
We do not currently market stand-alone fixed or deferred annuity products, favoring instead protection-oriented life and supplemental health insurance products.

As of December 31, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] Globe Life had no unresolved SEC staff comments.
Item 1C. Cybersecurity
13 rewritten, 8 added, 2 removed, 39 unchanged
The Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO"), who reports to the [added: General Counsel and] CRO, leads our cyber risk management and strategy and the Information Security Department.
We assess the effectiveness of our [added: corporate] policies and controls [removed: internally] [added: internally,] as well as through the engagement of [removed: third parties] [added: external advisors] to conduct regular reviews, penetration tests, and vulnerability scans of [added: Company] information systems and applications.
We employ a variety of [added: internal] measures to detect, prevent, and reduce the frequency and severity of cybersecurity [removed: incidents,] [added: incidents on the Company’s infrastructure,] which may include, but are not limited to, the use of encryption, intrusion prevention, endpoint security, password protection, multi-factor authentication, internal phishing [removed: testing and] [added: testing,] security awareness training, and vulnerability scanning and penetration testing.
[removed: In addition, we have implemented a third-party risk management program to] [added: We] assess [removed: our vendors’] [added: the] ability [added: of our vendors as appropriate] to adequately protect information, which includes requiring agreements [removed: with our vendors] that address cybersecurity.
We periodically review and assess [removed: certain third parties’] [added: vendors’] adherence to these agreements and review for information security (including cybersecurity) incidents experienced by our third-party vendors.
Due to the type and volume of information that we collect and store to [added: support our business, including to] provide insurance coverage to [removed: prospective and] [added: prospective,] current [added: and former] policyholders, we are an attractive target for cyber threat actors seeking financial gain.
[removed: Our failure to maintain the safety of our policyholder’s information could have a] material adverse effect on our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.
To date, we have not experienced a cybersecurity incident that resulted in a material adverse effect on our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition; however, [added: we anticipate that our systems and data will continue to face attacks or other cybersecurity risks and] there can be no guarantee that we will not experience such an incident in the future.

These updates include compliance [removed: with] [added: measures designed to meet] applicable regulations as well as current or planned changes to the regulations, an overview of the current cyber threats, risk management activities, and discussions of cyber incident investigations that warrant the attention of the Board.
The CISO also provides an annual update to the entire Board of Directors on [added: topics such as] changes in cybersecurity, top threats facing the Company, key risks and mitigation efforts, and any potential material cybersecurity incidents.
The plan also includes information pertaining to roles and responsibilities, escalation, [removed: third party] [added: third-party] support, documentation, reporting, and law enforcement engagement.
In addition, cybersecurity is incorporated into our third-party risk management program.
With respect to our independent sales agents, we require each agent to execute an agent agreement containing terms governing the ownership, use and confidentiality of policyholder and proprietary information.
We also engage with agency offices to support their use of measures and safeguards to protect information.
Our failure to maintain the safety of our policyholder’s information could have a

The Company utilizes pricing from multiple pricing providers and applies a hierarchy of sources to determine price.
If fair value differences from pricing providers are determined to be unreasonable and additional pricing resources utilizing observable market data cannot corroborate the price within a reasonable tolerance, then the security will be classified as Level 3.

If management determines that foreclosure of a particular property is probable, or determines the loan is collateral dependent, the company may elect the practical expedient.
Generally, commissions are paid to an agent when due over the life of a policy as premiums are paid.
However, some agents may qualify to have their commissions (primarily first-year commissions) paid in advance of when the commissions are earned.
To the extent an advance is made, we will generally advance up to 65% of first year commissions.
This creates an agent debit balance which is classified within “Other receivables”.
If an agent has an agent debit balance with the Company, commissions earned by that agent are generally first applied to reduce the amounts owed to the Company.
Any excess will be paid to the agent in cash.
Commissions are earned by the agent over the contract period as long as premium is paid by the policyholder and the policy stays in force.

Change in Accounting Principle
The adoption is also communicated as a critical audit matter below.
Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements - Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts - Refer to Note 1 to the Financial Statements (also see Change in Accounting Principle explanatory paragraph above)
*Critical Audit Matter Description*
The Company adopted ASU 2018-12 on January 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective application as of the transition date of January 1, 2021.
The adoption of ASU 2018-12 significantly modified the Company’s accounting for and disclosure of long-duration life and health insurance contracts.
We identified the adoption of ASU 2018-12 as a critical audit matter because of the need to involve actuarial specialists to evaluate assumptions and valuation models, the extent of audit effort required, and the inherent complexity involved in the selection and application of new accounting policies.
*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*
Our audit procedures related to the adoption of ASU 2018-12 included the following, among others:
- We tested the effectiveness of controls over the application of new accounting policies and disclosure of the impact of adoption discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, including controls over the valuation models and assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits and amortization of deferred acquisition costs.
- We evaluated the appropriateness of the Company’s selection and application of accounting policies in connection with the adoption of the ASU 2018-12.
- With the assistance of our actuarial specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation models and assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits and amortization of deferred acquisition costs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
*Acquisition:* On August 1, 2021, the Company acquired Beazley Benefits, an operating unit of Beazley Insurance Company, Inc. for $59.2 million.
In conjunction with this agreement, the Company also executed a 100% coinsurance agreement assuming the remaining inforce business produced by the unit.
The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as required by GAAP.
This guidance requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be based on their fair values at the acquisition date.
The goodwill related to the purchase is due to expected synergies as a result of combining operations with other factors.
The results of operations since the acquisition date have been consolidated.
The cash flows associated with the purchase are recorded in the *[Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows](#i978255a8c505469ca00e0a1c1e3bcb15_868)* in "Other investing activities."
redemptions of investments are recorded in "Realized gains (losses)".
Further review is performed on the available valuations to determine if they can be corroborated within reasonable tolerance to any other observable evidence.
If one of the valuations or the mean of the available valuations for a security can be corroborated with other observable evidence, then the corroborated value is used and reported as Level 2.
The Company uses information and analytical techniques deemed appropriate for determining the point within the range of reasonable fair value estimates that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.
Valuations that cannot be corroborated within a reasonable tolerance are classified as Level 3.
