Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies
Business*:* (Globe Life), (the Company), refers to Globe Life Inc., an insurance holding company incorporated in Delaware in 1979, and Globe Life Inc. subsidiaries and affiliates. Globe Life Inc.'s direct or indirect primary subsidiaries are Globe Life And Accident Insurance Company, American Income Life Insurance Company, Liberty National Life Insurance Company, Family Heritage Life Insurance Company of America, and United American Insurance Company. The underwriting companies are owned by their ultimate corporate parent, Globe Life Inc. (Parent Company).
Globe Life provides a variety of life and supplemental health insurance products to a broad base of customers. The Company is organized into three reportable segments: life insurance, supplemental health insurance, and investments.
Globe Life markets its insurance products through a number of distribution channels, each of which sells the products of one or more of Globe Life's insurance segments. Our distribution channels consist of the following exclusive agencies: American Income Life Division (American Income), Liberty National Division (Liberty National) and Family Heritage Division (Family Heritage); an independent agency, United American Division (United American); and our Direct to Consumer Division (DTC).
Basis of Presentation*:* The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Globe Life have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for annual financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position at September 30, 2025, and the condensed consolidated results of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The interim period condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements that were included in the Form 10-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 26, 2025.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. See further documentation in the significant accounting policies or the accompanying notes.
Reinsurance and Recapture: In the normal course of business, Globe Life insurance subsidiaries enter into reinsurance agreements to limit their exposure to the risk of loss as well as enhance their capital position. The Company entered into a coinsurance transaction with funds withheld agreement with a third-party reinsurer on March 6, 2025, with an agreement effective date of January 1, 2025. Under the terms of the agreement Globe Life ceded 100% of the liabilities, net of existing reinsurance, associated with certain term and whole life insurance policies. The contract is accounted for under deposit accounting as it did not pass the risk transfer requirements for reinsurance treatment on a GAAP basis. Since the agreement is subject to deposit accounting and meets the right of offset conditions outlined in the accounting policy the Company recorded the initial coinsurance, ceding commission and funds withheld balance on a net basis. At inception, no cash was exchanged between the parties and subsequently, a risk charge was recorded as a component of net investment income in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, with net cash settlements occurring quarterly between the parties.
On March 31, 2025, the Company entered into a recapture and termination agreement with a third-party reinsurer to recapture certain policies that had previously been ceded under a reinsurance agreement dated November 12, 2001. The recapture was executed to accomplish common objectives between the Company and the reinsurer. As a result of the transaction, the Company received net proceeds of $39 million, which are reflected as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company also recognized a gain of approximately $14 million in policyholder benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Building Acquisition: On July 3, 2025, Globe Life Inc. completed the acquisition of real estate located in McKinney, Texas for total consideration of $80 million. The acquisition was executed in order to support Company growth and efficiency through modern technological infrastructure and centralized operations. The acquisition includes land, a building structure and building improvements. The transaction was executed pursuant to a purchase agreement and is accounted for as an asset acquisition. The purchase price was allocated based upon the relative fair value of land, building and building improvements. The building is being depreciated over its estimated useful life of 40 years on a straight-line basis and recorded as part of other operating expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. For additional information regarding our property, plant and equipment accounting policy, please refer to our 2024 Form 10-K. The Company expects to utilize the facility for its own operational needs.
As of the date of this filing, the current facility does not qualify for held for sale classification and no impairment indicators have been identified.
Note 2—New Accounting Standards
Accounting Pronouncements Yet to be Adopted: ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, adds disclosure requirements to disaggregate information related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and information on income taxes paid. The disclosures will enhance the assessment of an entity’s operations and related tax risks.
This standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2025, and will be implemented on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the standard will have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. The guidance requires only additional disclosure, as a result there will be no effects on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, adds disclosure requirements to disaggregate information related to an entity's income statement. The disclosures will allow for enhanced transparency of an entity's expenses.
This standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2027. The Company is evaluating the standard.
ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, provides guidance for the evaluation of determining whether criteria is met to begin the capitalization of internal-use software costs. ASC 350 (Intangibles—Goodwill and Other) requires the capitalization of internal-use software costs begin when both of the following criteria are met: (1) when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) the probability that the project will be completed and will be used to perform the function intended. If uncertainty exists under the guidance issued in Subtopic 350-40 then a probable to complete threshold will not exist and any costs would be expensed until uncertainties are resolved.
The updated guidance also requires the application of disclosure requirements in ASC 360 (Plant, Property, and Equipment) for all capitalized costs regardless of presentation in the financial statements. This standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2028. The Company is evaluating the standard.

Transfers between levels within the hierarchy occur when there are changes in the observability of the inputs and market data. Transfers into Level 3 occur when there is little unobservable market activity for the asset/liability as of the measurement date and the Company is required to rely upon internally-developed assumptions or third parties. Transfers out of Level 3 occur when quoted prices in active markets becomes available for identical assets/ liabilities or the ability to corroborate by observable market data.

(1)Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the instruments.
Private placement fixed maturities and asset-backed securities are valued based on the contractual cash flows discounted by a yield determined as a treasury benchmark rate adjusted for a credit spread. The credit spread is developed from observable indices for similar securities and unobservable indices for private securities or private comparable securities for corresponding credit ratings. The credit ratings for the securities may be considered unobservable inputs, as they are private letter ratings issued by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or are assigned by the third-party investment manager based on a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the credit underwritten. A higher (lower) credit rating would result in a higher (lower) valuation. For more information regarding valuation procedures, please refer to Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies under the caption Fair Value Measurements, Investments in Securities disclosed in the Form 10-K*.*

Gross unrealized losses may fluctuate quarter over quarter due to factors in the market that affect the holdings, such as changes in interest rates or credit spreads. The Company considers many factors when determining whether an allowance for a credit loss should be recorded. While the Company holds securities that may be in an unrealized loss position, Globe Life does not generally intend to sell and it is unlikely that the Company will be required to sell the fixed maturities prior to their anticipated recovery or maturity due to the strong cash flows generated by its insurance operations.

The following tables are reflective of the key factors, debt service coverage ratios, and loan-to-value (LTV) ratios that are utilized by management to monitor the performance of the portfolios. The Company only makes new investments in commercial mortgage loans that have a LTV ratio less than 80%. LTV ratios that exceed 80% are generally a result of decreases in the valuation of the underlying property. Generally, a higher LTV ratio and a lower debt service coverage ratio equates to higher risk of loss.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had 36 loans in the portfolio. During the quarter, the Company evaluated the commercial mortgage loan portfolio on both an individual and pooling basis to determine the allowance for credit losses and determined two loans were collateral dependent or likely to foreclose. The allowance for credit losses on these loans was determined using the practical expedient which was based on an estimate of fair value of the underlying collateral plus costs to sell the asset. The total principal balance of the two loans was $8.2 million and the allowance, determined using the practical expedient, was $1.6 million as of September 30, 2025. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, two loans with an outstanding principal value of $40.6 million were removed from the evaluation as a result of foreclosure. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, four loans with an outstanding principal value of $45.8 million were removed from the evaluation as a result of foreclosure and were transferred into limited partnerships, held under the fair value option, in other long-term investments. As of September 30, 2025, there were no commercial mortgage loans in the process of foreclosure.

Note 5—Commitments and Contingencies
Guarantees: At September 30, 2025, The Company has one performance guarantee in effect. Per the Pre-capitalized Trust Securities agreement signed on July 1, 2025, Globe Life Inc. is required to purchase any treasury securities in default. Management believes it is unlikely the Company will have to make any material payments under this agreement due to default.
Letters of credit—The Parent Company has guaranteed letters of credit with a group of banks in connection with its credit facility. The letters of credit were issued by TMK Re, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to secure TMK Re, Ltd.’s obligation for claims on certain policies reinsured by TMK Re, Ltd. that were sold by other Globe Life insurance subsidiaries. These letters of credit facilitate TMK Re, Ltd.’s ability to reinsure the business of Globe Life's insurance carriers. The credit facility was amended on March 29, 2024 and now expires in 2029. The maximum amount of letters of credit available is $250 million. The Parent Company would be liable to the extent that TMK Re, Ltd. does not pay the reinsured party. The amount of letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2025 was $115 million.
Litigation: Globe Life Inc. and its subsidiaries, in common with the insurance industry in general, are subject to litigation, including: putative class action litigation; alleged breaches of contract; torts, including bad faith and fraud claims based on alleged wrongful or fraudulent acts of agents of Globe Life Inc.'s insurance subsidiaries; alleged employment discrimination; alleged worker misclassification; and miscellaneous other causes of action. Based upon information presently available, and in light of legal and other factual defenses available to Globe Life Inc. and its subsidiaries, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that such litigation will have a material adverse effect on Globe Life Inc.'s financial condition, future operating results or liquidity; however, assessing the eventual outcome of litigation necessarily involves forward-looking speculation as to judgments to be made by judges, juries and appellate courts in the future. This bespeaks caution, particularly in states with reputations for high punitive damage verdicts.
On April 30, 2024, a putative securities class action was filed against Globe Life Inc. and six of its current/former executives and directors in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (City of Miami Gen. Emp. & Sanitation Emp. Ret. Trust, et al. v. Globe Life Inc., et al., Case No. 4:24-cv-00376). On July 24, 2024, the Court appointed Lead Plaintiffs and Lead Counsel for the putative class of shareholders. The Lead Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Complaint on October 4, 2024 that asserts claims under §§ 10(b), 20(a), and 20(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rules 10b-5(a), 10b-5(b), and 10b-5(c) promulgated thereunder, on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of Globe Life Inc.'s securities from May 8, 2019 through April 10, 2024. The Consolidated Complaint adds four additional executives as defendants and alleges that certain of Globe Life Inc.'s disclosures about financial performance and certain other public statements during the putative class period were materially false or misleading. Pursuant to Globe Life Inc.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation and indemnification agreements with the individual defendants, Globe Life Inc. has agreed to indemnify the defendants for all expenses and losses related to the litigation, subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the litigation on December 3, 2024, which motion was denied on September 29, 2025. Globe Life Inc. plans to vigorously defend against the lawsuit. The outcome of litigation of this type is inherently uncertain, and there is always the possibility that a Court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of Globe Life Inc. and the individual defendants. However, the amount of any such loss in that outcome cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Also pending in the Eastern District of Texas is a consolidated shareholder derivative suit that is closely related to the putative securities class action disclosed above (the “City of Miami Matter”). On November 7, 2024, Globe Life Inc. shareholder Jui Cheng Hsiao filed a shareholder derivative complaint against Globe Life Inc. as a nominal defendant, as well as certain current and former Globe Life Inc. executives and members of its Board of Directors. Pursuant to Globe Life Inc.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation and indemnification agreements with the individual defendants, Globe Life Inc. has agreed to indemnify them for all expenses and losses related to the litigation, subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. On November 14, 2024, Globe Life Inc. shareholder Gautam Jadhav filed a shareholder derivative complaint against the same set of defendants.

Each shareholder derivative complaint asserts one claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the individual defendants and alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Globe Life Inc. by causing or permitting Globe Life Inc. to make misleading statements about its performance and financial results. The allegations are substantially similar to the allegations made in the City of Miami Matter and derive from a short seller report. On November 25, 2024, the two shareholder plaintiffs moved to consolidate the two actions into one action and the Court granted the motion on January 3, 2025 (In re Globe Life Inc. Stockholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. 4:24-cv-00993-ALM (E.D. Tex.)). The case is before the same Court as the City of Miami Matter. On January 16, 2025, the parties filed a joint motion to stay such proceedings pending the Court’s resolution of the motion to dismiss filed by Globe Life Inc. in the City of Miami Matter. The Court granted such joint motion to stay the proceedings on January 25, 2025.
On September 19, 2025, an additional shareholder filed a separate derivative lawsuit in the Business Court for Dallas County, Texas, against Globe Life Inc. as a nominal defendant, as well as certain current and former Globe Life Inc. executives and members of its Board of Directors (James E. Walker v. Gary L. Coleman, et al., Case No. 25-BC01B-0041). Pursuant to Globe Life Inc.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation and indemnification agreements with the individual defendants, Globe Life Inc. has agreed to indemnify them for all expenses and losses related to the litigation, subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. Like the consolidated shareholder derivative lawsuit disclosed above, this litigation is largely similar to the City of Miami Matter and derives in part from a short seller report. The petition asserts three causes of action relating to the 2019 through 2024 time period, including: (i) a breach of fiduciary duty claim for failing to provide adequate oversight to prevent purportedly widespread corporate misconduct including fraud, discrimination and harassment; (ii) a breach of fiduciary duty claim against certain individual defendants who allegedly engaged in insider trading; and (iii) a claim for wasting corporate assets by paying excessive compensation and/or bonuses to certain of its executive officers. The petition alleges that Globe Life Inc. was thus exposed to potential legal liability and costs, and that Globe Life Inc. repurchased shares at an artificially inflated price. The petition seeks monetary damages as well as restitution, governance reforms, and accountability for executives and board members. Globe Life Inc. intends to mount a robust defense against the litigation.
On September 26, 2024, Globe Life Inc. and its subsidiary, American Income Life Insurance Company, were notified by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) that the EEOC conducted an investigation of charges filed against Globe Life Inc. and/or American Income Life Insurance Company by five former sales agents and one then-current sales agent. The EEOC asserts that there is reasonable cause to believe the six complainants were employees, not independent contractors, of Globe Life Inc. and/or American Income Life Insurance Company and were discriminated against on the basis of sex, and that one complainant was also discriminated against on the basis of race. In addition, the EEOC asserts that there is reasonable cause to believe that a class of female workers were employees, not independent contractors, and were subject to unlawful conduct which also constitutes a pattern-or-practice of discrimination. The EEOC’s investigative findings are not binding on Globe Life Inc. The EEOC’s procedures provide for a conciliation process that has concluded without achieving a resolution. The EEOC may elect to file a lawsuit in federal court on behalf of the workers based on the alleged statutory violations. The EEOC has not filed any legal proceedings at this time. In the event the EEOC elects to pursue any claims in court, Globe Life Inc. intends to defend against any such lawsuit vigorously. The outcome of litigation of this type would be inherently uncertain and cannot be reasonably estimated or determined at this time. There is always the possibility that a Court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of Globe Life Inc.

Note 6—Policy Liabilities
The liability for future policy benefits is determined based on the net level premium method, which requires the liability be calculated as the present value of estimated future policyholder benefits and the related termination expenses, less the present value of estimated future net premiums to be collected from policyholders.

Remeasurement Gain or Loss—In accordance with the accounting guidance, the Company reviews, and updates as necessary, its assumptions utilized in the calculation of the liability for future benefits annually in the third quarter and recalculates the net premium ratio. The revised net premium ratio is used to update the liability for future policy benefits as of the beginning of the current reporting period, and is compared to the liability using the prior cash flow assumptions. The difference is recorded as a component of the remeasurement gain or loss for the current period, along with the effect of the difference between actual and expected experience for the period. The total remeasurement gain or loss is within life and heath policyholder benefits included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations**.

The Company performed its annual review of assumptions during the third quarter. The assumption review process of the life and health segments resulted in a $134.3 million net remeasurement gain ($130.9 million and $3.4 million gains related to life and health, respectively) before tax as compared to a $46.3 million net remeasurement gain ($56.8 million gain and $10.5 million loss related to life and health, respectively) before tax in the year-ago quarter. This review process resulted in favorable changes to its mortality and lapse assumptions on life and health. Life assumption changes reflect continued favorable mortality experience along with slightly higher lapse rates which resulted in lower life policy obligations compared to our previous assumptions anticipated. Health assumption changes reflect slightly higher lapse rates and benefit enhancements implemented last year.
Excluding the impact of assumption changes, the Company's results for actual variances from expected experience for both life and health produced a $24.0 million net remeasurement gain ($18.5 million and $5.5 million gains related to life and health, respectively) before tax and a $14.7 million net remeasurement gain ($13.7 million and $1.0 million gains related to life and health, respectively) before tax for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company's results for actual variances from expected experience for both life and health produced a $53.6 million net remeasurement gain before tax and a $38.4 million net remeasurement gain before tax, respectively.

Credit facility*:* Globe Life has in place a credit facility which provides for a $1 billion revolving credit facility that may be increased to $1.25 billion. The credit facility matures March 29, 2029 and may be extended up to two one-year periods upon the Company's request. Pursuant to this agreement, the participating lenders have agreed to make revolving loans to Globe Life and to issue secured or unsecured letters of credit. The Company has not drawn on any of the credit to date.
The facility is further designated as a back-up credit line for a commercial paper program under which the Company may either borrow from the credit line or issue commercial paper at any time, with total commercial paper outstanding not to exceed the facility maximum of $1 billion, less any letters of credit issued. Interest is charged at variable rates. In accordance with the agreement, Globe Life is subject to certain covenants regarding capitalization.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company was in full compliance with these covenants.
Pre-capitalized Trust Securities: On July 1, 2025, the Company entered into a 30-year Facility Agreement with a Delaware trust (the "Trust") following the completion of a private placement of Trust securities for $500 million of Pre-Capitalized Trust Securities (the "P-CAPS"), conducted pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Trust invested the proceeds from this offering in a portfolio of U.S. Treasury principal and interest strips ("Treasury securities"). P-CAPS provide the Company with a source of liquidity, the proceeds of which, if drawn, would be used for general corporate purposes.
Under the Facility Agreement, the Company has the right, on one or more occasions, to issue and sell up to $500 million of its 6.580% Senior Notes to the Trust in exchange for a corresponding amount of Treasury securities held by the Trust. In consideration for this right, the Company pays the Trust a semi-annual facility fee at a rate of 1.789% per annum on the unexercised portion of the facility. These fees are recorded in Interest Expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company also reimburses the Trust for its administrative expenses. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had no senior note issuances under the Facility Agreement.

The membership requires ownership of FHLB common stock, as well as the purchase of activity-based common stock equal to approximately 4.1% of outstanding borrowings.
Globe Life owned $33.7 million in FHLB common stock as of September 30, 2025 and $34.5 million as of December 31, 2024. The FHLB stock is restricted from redemption or repurchases for the duration of the membership and recorded at cost (par) as required by applicable guidance. The FHLB stock is included in "Other long-term investments*"* in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Borrowings with the FHLB are subject to the availability of pledged assets at the insurance subsidiaries of Globe Life. As of September 30, 2025, Globe Life's insurance subsidiaries' maximum borrowing capacity under the FHLB facility was approximately $648 million, net of outstanding funding agreements and short-term borrowings, on pledged assets with a fair value of $1.3 billion. As of September 30, 2025, $427 million in funding agreements were outstanding with the FHLB, compared to $372 million as of December 31, 2024. This amount is included in "Other policyholders' funds" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company had $65 million and $17 million in short-term borrowings from the FHLB as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 12—Business Segments
Globe Life is organized into three operating segments: life, health, and investments.
Globe Life's reportable insurance segments are based on the insurance product lines it markets and administers: life insurance and supplemental health insurance. There is also an investment segment that manages the investment portfolio and cash flow for the insurance segments. The Company's chief operating decision makers ("CODM"), our Co-CEOs, evaluate the overall performance of the operations of the Company in accordance with these segments.
During the fourth quarter of 2024 we entered into a coinsurance agreement to cede a majority of the annuity business to a third-party insurer. This impacted a significant portion of our annuities which had previously been classified as one of our reportable segments. The annuity segment has historically represented less than 1% of revenue and has not been core to the Company's business. We adjusted our segments from four down to three at December 31, 2024. All quarterly presentations of segment information related to prior year have been recast for the periods presented to reflect this change in segments.
Life insurance products marketed by Globe Life include traditional whole life and term life insurance. Health insurance products are generally guaranteed renewable and include Medicare Supplement, cancer, critical illness, accident, and other limited-benefit supplemental hospital and surgical products.
The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, in 2024 which added disclosure requirements to segment expenses, improving the financial reporting of the entity’s overall performance and assessment of future cash flows. The disclosures required more detailed information related to the entity’s reportable segments and the new disclosures are also required prospectively on a quarterly basis. The prior-year presentation has been recast to reflect the new disclosures in accordance with this adopted accounting standard.
The following tables present segment premium revenue by each of Globe Life's distribution channels.

Due to the nature of the life insurance industry, Globe Life has no individual or group that would be considered a major customer. Substantially all of Globe Life's business is conducted in the United States.
The measure of profitability established by the CODM for the insurance segments is underwriting margin before other income and administrative expenses, in accordance with the manner in which the segments are managed. It essentially represents gross profit margin on insurance products before insurance administrative expenses and consists primarily of premium less net policy benefits, acquisition expenses, and commissions. Required interest on policy liabilities is reflected as a component of the Investment segment (rather than as a component of underwriting margin in the insurance segment) in order to match this cost with the investment income earned on the assets supporting the policy liabilities.

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)
The measure of profitability for the Investment segment is excess investment income, representing the net income earned on the investment portfolio in excess of policy requirements. Other than the required interest on the insurance segments, no other intersegment revenues or expenses are recognized. Expenses directly attributable to corporate operations are included in the “Corporate & Other” category. Stock-based compensation expense is considered a corporate expense by Globe Life management and is included in this category. All other unallocated revenues and expenses on a pretax basis, including insurance administrative expense and interest on debt, are also included in the “Corporate & Other” segment category.
Globe Life holds a sizable investment portfolio to support its insurance liabilities, the yield from which is used to offset policy benefit, acquisition, administrative, and tax expenses. This yield or investment income is taken into account when establishing premium rates and profitability expectations for its insurance products. From time to time, investments are sold or called, or experience a credit loss event, each of which are reflected by the Company as realized gain (loss)—investments. These gains or losses generally occur as a result of disposition due to issuer calls, compliance with Company investment policies, or other reasons often beyond management’s control. Unlike investment income, realized gains and losses are incidental to insurance operations, and only overall yields are considered when setting premium rates or insurance product profitability expectations. While these gains and losses are not relevant to segment profitability or core operating results, they can have a material positive or negative result on net income. For these reasons, management removes realized investment gains and losses when it views its segment operations.
Management also removes non-operating items unrelated to the Company's core insurance activities when evaluating those results. Therefore, these items are excluded in its presentation of segment results because accounting guidance requires that operating segment results be presented as management views its business. All of these items are included in “Other operating expense” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the appropriate year. See additional detail below in the tables.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
We caution readers regarding certain forward-looking statements contained in the foregoing discussion and elsewhere in this document, and in any other statements made by, or on behalf of Globe Life whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any statement that is not a historical fact, or that might otherwise be considered an opinion or projection concerning the Company or its business, whether express or implied, is meant as and should be considered a forward-looking statement. Such statements represent management's opinions concerning future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. We specifically disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement because of new information, future developments, or otherwise.
Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. If these estimates or assumptions prove to be incorrect, the actual results of Globe Life may differ materially from the forward-looking statements made on the basis of such estimates or assumptions. Whether or not actual results differ materially from forward-looking statements may depend on numerous foreseeable and unforeseeable events or developments, which may be national in scope, related to the insurance industry generally, or applicable to the Company specifically. Such events or developments could include, but are not necessarily limited to:
1.Economic and other conditions, including the impact of inflation, immigration, geopolitical events, escalating tariff and non-tariff trade measures imposed by the U.S. and other countries, a prolonged government shutdown, and other governmental actions which affect the U.S. economy and/or U.S. consumer confidence, leading to unexpected changes in lapse rates and/or sales of our policies, as well as levels of mortality, morbidity, and/or utilization of health care services that differ from Globe Life's assumptions;
