In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No.87, 88, 106 and 132(R).
” This standard eliminated the requirement for a “minimum pension liability adjustment” that was previously required under SFAS No.87 and required employers to recognize the underfunded or overfunded status of a defined benefit plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position.
In 2006, as a result of the implementation of SFAS No.158, the Company recognized an after-tax decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $1.187 billion and $513 million for the U. S.  and International pension benefit plans, respectively, and $218 million for the postretirement health care and life insurance benefit plan.
See Note 11 for additional detail.
Reclassification adjustments are made to avoid double counting in comprehensive income items that are also recorded as part of net income.
In 2007, as disclosed in the net periodic benefit cost table in Note 11, $198 million pre-tax ($123 million after-tax) were reclassified to earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income to pension and postretirement expense in the income statement.
These pension and postretirement expense amounts are shown in the table in Note 11 as amortization of transition (asset) obligation, amortization of prior service cost (benefit) and amortization of net actuarial (gain) loss.
Other reclassification adjustments (except for cash flow hedging instruments adjustments provided in Note 12) were not material.
No tax provision has been made for the translation of foreign currency financial statements into U. S.  dollars.
NOTE 7.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
## Table 0 ##
Individual amounts in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows exclude the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and exchange rate impacts, which are presented separately.
“Other – net” in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows within operating activities in 2007 and 2006 includes changes in liabilities related to 3M’s restructuring actions (Note 4) and in 2005 includes the non-cash impact of adopting FIN 47 ($35 million cumulative effect of accounting change).
Transactions related to investing and financing activities with significant non-cash components are as follows: In 2007, 3M purchased certain assets of Diamond Productions, Inc.  for approximately 150 thousand shares of 3M common stock, which has a market value of approximately $13 million at the acquisition’s measurement date.
Liabilities assumed from acquisitions are provided in the tables in Note 2.
The net investment income yield attributable to the Closed Block Business was 6.58% for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to 6.71% for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The decrease was primarily due to net declines in fixed maturity and commercial loan yields primarily attributable to the impact of investment activities in a low interest rate environment.
The following tables set forth the income yield and investment income, excluding realized investment gains (losses), for each major investment category of our Japanese general account for the periods indicated.
## Table 1 ##
(1) Yields are based on average carrying values except for fixed maturities, equity securities and securities lending activity.
Yields for fixed maturities are based on amortized cost.
Yields for equity securities are based on cost.
Yields for securities lending activity are calculated net of corresponding liabilities and rebate expenses.
Yields exclude investment income on assets other than those included in invested assets of the Financial Services Businesses.
Prior periods yields are presented on a basis consistent with the current period presentation.
The yield on the Japanese insurance operations’ portfolios was 2.55% for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to 2.08% for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The increase in yield on the Japanese insurance portfolio between periods is primarily attributable to an increase in U. S.  dollar investments and the lengthening of the duration of the investment portfolio.
Also contributing to the increase were more favorable results from joint venture investments within other investments.
The yield on fixed maturities above includes the effect of U. S.  dollar denominated fixed maturities that are not hedged to Yen through third party contracts and provide a yield that is substantially higher than the yield on comparable Japanese fixed maturities.
The average value of U. S.  dollar denominated fixed maturities that are not hedged to Yen through third party contracts over the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was approximately $3.5 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, based on amortized cost.
Fixed Maturity Securities Investment Mix Our fixed maturity securities portfolio consists of publicly traded and privately placed debt securities across an array of industry categories.
The fixed maturity securities relating to our international insurance operations are primarily comprised of foreign government securities.
We manage our public portfolio to a risk profile directed by the Asset Liability and Risk Management Group and, in the case of our international insurance portfolios, to a profile that reflects local market regulations and our investment competencies in these markets.
We seek to employ relative value analysis both in credit selection and in purchasing and selling securities.
The total return that we earn on the portfolio will be reflected both as investment income and also as realized gains or losses on investments.
We use our private placement and asset-backed portfolios to enhance the diversification and yield of our overall fixed maturity portfolio.
Within our domestic portfolios, we maintain a private fixed income portfolio that is larger than the industry average as a percentage of total fixed income holdings.
Over the last several years, our investment staff has directly originated more than half of our annual private placement originations.
Our origination capability offers the opportunity to lead transactions and gives us the opportunity for better terms, including covenants and call protection, and to take advantage of innovative deal structures.
Investments in fixed maturity securities attributable to the Financial Services Businesses were $105.0 billion at amortized cost with an estimated fair value of $108.5 billion as of December 31, 2005 versus $100.2 billion at amortized cost with an estimated fair value of $104.7 billion as of December 31, 2004.
Investments in fixed maturity securities attributable to the Closed Block Business were $47.3 billion at amortized cost with an estimated fair value of $49.5 billion as of December 31, 2005 versus $45.4 billion at amortized cost with an estimated fair value of $48.8 billion as of December 31, 2004.
PRUDENTIAL FINANCIAL, INC.  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The changes in the number of shares of Common Stock issued, held in treasury and outstanding, are as follows for the periods indicated:
## Table 2 ##
(1) Represents net shares issued from treasury pursuant to the Company’s stock-based compensation programs.
Additional paid-in capital Additional paid-in capital is primarily comprised of the cumulative excess between: (a) the total cash received by the Company in conjunction with past issuances of Common Stock shares or Common Stock shares reissued from treasury in conjunction with the Company’s stock-based compensation program and (b) the total par value associated with those shares ($.01 per share).
Common stock held in treasury Common Stock held in treasury represents the Company’s previously issued shares of stock which have been repurchased by the Company but not retired.
These shares are accounted for at the cost at which they were acquired.
Common Stock held in treasury is typically impacted by repurchases of shares under the Board of Directors approved share repurchase program and by reissuances of shares associated with our stock-based compensation programs which are accounted for at average cost upon reissuance.
Gains resulting from the reissuance of Common Stock held in treasury are credited to Additional paid-in capital.
Losses resulting from the reissuance of Common Stock held in treasury are charged first to Additional paid-in capital to the extent the Company has previously recorded gains on treasury share transactions, then to Retained earnings.
The Board of Directors may from time to time, at its discretion, authorize management to repurchase shares of Common Stock of the Company.
The timing and amount of share repurchases are determined by management based upon market conditions and other considerations, and repurchases may be executed in the open market, through derivative, accelerated repurchase and other negotiated transactions and through prearranged trading plans complying with Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
Numerous factors could affect the timing and amount of any future repurchases under the share repurchase authorization, including increased capital needs of the Company due to changes in regulatory capital requirements, opportunities for growth and acquisitions, and the effect of adverse market conditions on the segments.
The following table summarizes share repurchases for each of the past three years as well as the share repurchase authorization for 2019 which was approved by the Board of Directors in December 2018.
## Table 3 ##

Repurchases of shares have been funded with cash generated from operations.
The Company’s working capital at December 31, 2011, included $279 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company expects that internally generated cash will be sufficient to support the working capital needs of the Company, the Company’s fixed payments, dividends, and other obligations on both a short- and long-term basis.
On February 8, 2012, the Company announced a quarterly dividend of $.15 per share to be paid to all shareholders of record on February 24, 2012.
