OVERVIEW

Loews Corporation is a holding company and has four reportable segments comprised of three individual consolidated operating subsidiaries, CNA Financial Corporation (“CNA”), Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (“Boardwalk Pipelines”) and Loews Hotels Holding Corporation (“Loews Hotels & Co”); and the Corporate segment. The Corporate segment is primarily comprised of Loews Corporation, excluding its consolidated operating subsidiaries, and the equity method of accounting for Altium Packaging LLC (“Altium Packaging”), an unconsolidated subsidiary.

Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein, the term “Company” means Loews Corporation including its subsidiaries, the terms “Parent Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or like terms mean Loews Corporation excluding its subsidiaries and the term “Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation” means Net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation shareholders.

We rely upon our invested cash balances and distributions from our subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet our obligations and to declare and pay any dividends to our shareholders. The ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends is subject to, among other things, the availability of sufficient earnings and funds in such subsidiaries, applicable state laws, including in the case of the insurance subsidiaries of CNA, laws and rules governing the payment of dividends by regulated insurance companies (see Note 14 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025) and compliance with covenants in their respective loan agreements. Claims of creditors of our subsidiaries will generally have priority as to the assets of such subsidiaries over our claims and those of our creditors and shareholders. We are not responsible for the liabilities and obligations of our subsidiaries and there are no Parent Company guarantees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Financial Results

The following table summarizes net income (loss) attributable to Loews Corporation by segment and the basic and diluted net income per share attributable to Loews Corporation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

Three Months EndedSix Months Ended
June 30,June 30,
2026202520262025
(In millions, except per share data)
CNA Financial$294$274$488$526
Boardwalk Pipelines10088259240
Loews Hotels & Co48287428
Corporate21(40)(33)
Net income attributable to Loews Corporation$444$391$781$761
Basic and diluted net income per share$2.16$1.87$3.79$3.61

Net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $444 million, or $2.16 per share, compared to net income of $391 million, or $1.87 per share in the comparable 2025 period. Net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $781 million, or $3.79 per share, compared to net income of $761 million, or $3.61 per share in the comparable 2025 period.

The increase in net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the comparable 2025 period was primarily driven by higher net income at CNA, Loews Hotels & Co and Boardwalk Pipelines. The increase at CNA is primarily due to higher net investment income and lower investment losses, partially offset by lower underlying underwriting results. The increase at Loews Hotels & Co is primarily due to higher overall average daily rates and occupied room nights across most of its portfolio. The increase at Boardwalk Pipelines is primarily due to higher contracting rates on gas transportation and higher product sales, partially offset by higher operating expenses. Corporate net income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was essentially unchanged compared with the comparable 2025 period.

The increase in net income attributable to Loews Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the comparable 2025 period was primarily driven by higher net income at Loe

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

There were no material changes in our market risk components as of June 30, 2026 from those discussed in the Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk section included under Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Additional information related to portfolio duration and market conditions is discussed in the Investments section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included under Part I, Item 2.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), which is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, including this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management on a timely basis to allow decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report and, based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected or that are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
