 of additional floating rate liabilities to lower its overall net floating rate position. As of September 30, 2025, Athene’s net invested asset portfolio included $49.8 billion of floating rate investments, or 17% of its net invested assets, and its net reserve liabilities included $43.8 billion of floating rate liabilities at notional, or 15% of its net invested assets, resulting in $6.0 billion of net floating rate assets, or 2% of its net invested assets.

If prevailing interest rates were to rise, we believe Athene’s products would be more attractive to consumers and its sales would likely increase. If prevailing interest rates were to decline, it is likely that Athene’s products would be less attractive to

consumers and its sales would likely decrease. In periods of prolonged low interest rates, the net investment spread may be negatively impacted by reduced investment income to the extent that Athene is unable to adequately reduce policyholder crediting rates due to policyholder guarantees in the form of minimum crediting rates or otherwise due to market conditions. A significant majority of Athene’s deferred annuity products have crediting rates that it may reset annually upon renewal, following the expiration of the current guaranteed period. While Athene has the contractual ability to lower these crediting rates to the guaranteed minimum levels at renewal, its willingness to do so may be limited by competitive pressures. Athene’s funding agreements and other investment-type products, the latter of which is comprised of immediate annuities without significant mortality risk (including pension group annuities without life contingencies), guaranteed investment contracts, and assumed endowments without significant mortality risks, provide little to no discretionary ability to change the rates of interest that determine the amounts payable to the respective policyholder or institution.
