[Preface and Non-GAAP Financial Measures](index=3&type=section&id=Preface%2C%20definition%20of%20non-GAAP%20financial%20measures) This section defines non-GAAP financial measures like adjusted operating income and stockholders' equity, and notes a correction to Canadian mutual fund asset methodology with no financial statement impact - The company uses several non-GAAP measures to provide what management believes are more relevant and meaningful analytical metrics. These include: - **Operating adjustments:** Exclude investment gains/losses, MTM adjustments, and certain non-recurring items like restructuring charges to better show core insurance operations - **Adjusted stockholders' equity:** Removes unrealized gains/losses on invested assets and the effect of discount rate changes on future policy benefits to reduce volatility from market movements - **IPO coinsurance transactions adjustments:** Exclude amounts ceded under 2010 IPO-related coinsurance transactions to show premiums economically maintained by the company[5](index=5&type=chunk)[6](index=6&type=chunk)[7](index=7&type=chunk) - A correction was made in Q2 2025 to the methodology for presenting outflows and calculating market value changes for Canadian mutual fund assets. This correction, which was assessed as immaterial, had no impact on the financial statements, product sales, or client asset values.
