Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Financial Statements	Basis of Financial Statements The financial information in this report presented for interim periods is unaudited and includes the accounts of Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” the "Company" or “FNF”) prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All adjustments made were of a normal, recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our "Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2019. Description of the Business We are a leading provider of (i) title insurance, escrow and other title-related services, including trust activities, trustee sales guarantees, recordings and reconveyances and home warranty products, (ii) technology and transaction services to the real estate and mortgage industries and (iii) annuity and life insurance products. FNF is one of the nation’s largest title insurance companies operating through its title insurance underwriters - Fidelity National Title Insurance Company ("FNTIC"), Chicago Title Insurance Company ("Chicago Title"), Commonwealth Land Title Insurance Company ("Commonwealth Title"), Alamo Title Insurance and National Title Insurance of New York Inc. - which collectively issue more title insurance policies than any other title company in the United States. Through our subsidiary, ServiceLink Holdings, LLC ("ServiceLink"), we provide mortgage transaction services, including title-related services and facilitation of production and management of mortgage loans. We are also a provider of annuity and life insurance products, providing deferred annuities, including fixed index annuities ("FIA"), fixed rate annuities, and immediate annuities and indexed universal life ("IUL") insurance through our wholly-owned subsidiary, FGL Holdings ("F&G"). For information about our reportable segments refer to Note J Segment Information. Recent Developments Termination of F&G Credit Agreement On October 29, 2020, we terminated our $250 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent, and a a maturity date of November 30, 2020 (the "F&G Credit Agreement"), which we assumed in connection with our acquisition of F&G on June 1, 2020. For further information related to the F&G Credit Agreement refer to Note G Notes Payable. Amendment to our Revolving Credit Facility On October 29, 2020, we entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for our $800 million revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolving Credit Facility") with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and other agents party thereto (the "Fifth Restated Credit Agreement"). For further information related to the Amended Revolving Credit Facility and the Fifth Restated Credit Agreement refer to Note G Notes Payable. 2.45% Senior Notes On September 15, 2020, we completed our underwritten public offering of $600 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.45% Notes due March 15, 2031 (the "2.45% Notes"). The net proceeds from the registered offering of the 2.45% Notes were approximately $593 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering (i) to repay all outstanding of our $260 million indebtedness under our term loan credit agreement, dated April 22, 2020, among us, as borrower, each lender from time to time party thereto, as lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Term Loan"), which we entered into to fund a portion of the acquisition of F&G, and (ii) for general corporate purposes. For further information related to the Term Loan and the 2.45% Notes refer to Note G Notes Payable. Income Tax Income tax expense was $133 million and $59 million in the three-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $194 million and $210 million in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income taxes was 25% and 19% in the three-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and 23% and 23% in the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before taxes in the three months ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable period in 2019 is primarily attributable to increased stock option activity in the 2019 period. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings, is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders in a given period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during such period. In periods when earnings are positive, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities. For periods when we recognize a net loss, diluted earnings per share is equal to basic earnings per share as the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities is considered to be antidilutive. We have granted certain stock options, shares of restricted stock and certain other convertible share based payments which have been treated as common share equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share for periods in which positive earnings have been reported. Options or other instruments which provide the ability to purchase shares of our common stock that are antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. There were 2 million and 1 million antidilutive instruments outstanding during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020, respectively. There were no antidilutive instruments outstanding during the three or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU introduce broad changes to accounting for credit impairment of financial instruments. The primary updates include the introduction of a new current expected credit loss ("CECL") model that is based on expected rather than incurred losses and amendments to the accounting for impairment of fixed maturity securities available for sale. The method used to measure estimated credit losses for fixed maturity available-for-sale securities will be unchanged from current GAAP; however, the amendments require credit losses to be recognized through an allowance rather than as a reduction to the amortized cost of those securities. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Results for reporting period beginning after December 15, 2019 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. We adopted this standard using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which other than temporary impairment had been recognized prior to January 1, 2020. As a result, the amortized cost basis remains the same before and after the effective date of ASC 326. The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed. Amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income as of January 1, 2020 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected will be accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset. Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2020 will be recorded in earnings when received. See Note E Investments for further discussion of the adoption as it relates to our fixed maturity securities available for sale. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The new guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We have adopted this standard as of January 1, 2020 and are applying this guidance on a prospective basis. The overall effect of Topic 350 had no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new guidance introduces the following requirements: for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, investors are required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee's assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse if the investee has communicated timing to the entity or announced timing publicly; entities should use the measurement uncertainty disclosure to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date; entities must disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, as well as the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, or other quantitative information in lieu of weighted average if the entity determines such information would be more reasonable and rational; and entities are no longer required to disclose the amounts and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this standard on June 1, 2020 as a result of our acquisition of F&G, and the overall effect of Topic 820 on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements was not material upon adoption. In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810), Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under this update, entities must consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis to determine whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. We adopted this standard on June 1, 2020 as a result of our acquisition of F&G, and it did not have an impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 Income Taxes - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance and will be applied using different approaches depending on what the specific amendment relates to and, for public entities, are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures upon adoption. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944), Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. In June of 2020, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2018-12 for one-year in response to implementation challenges resulting from COVID-19. This update introduced the following requirements: assumptions used to measure cash flows for traditional and limited-payment contracts must be reviewed at least annually with the effect of changes in those assumptions being recognized in the statement of operations; the discount rate applied to measure the liability for future policy benefits and limited-payment contracts must be updated at each reporting date with the effect of changes in the rate being recognized in other comprehensive income; market risk benefits associated with deposit contracts must be measured at fair value, with the effect of the change in the fair value attributable to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk being recognized in other comprehensive income; deferred acquisition costs are required to be amortized in proportion to premiums, gross profits, or gross margins and those balances must be amortized on a constant level basis over the expected term of the related contracts; deferred acquisition costs must be written off for unexpected contract terminations; and disaggregated rollforwards of beginning to ending balances of the liability for future policy benefits, policyholder account balances, market risk benefits, separate account liabilities and deferred acquisition costs, as well as information about significant inputs, judgments, assumptions, and methods used in measurement are required to be disclosed. The amendments in this ASU may be early adopted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not yet been issued, including interim financial statements. We do not currently expect to early adopt this standard. We have identified specific areas that will be impacted by the new guidance and are in the process of assessing the accounting, reporting and/or process changes that will be required to comply as well as the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements. Summary of additional significant accounting policies Since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as a result of our acquisition of F&G we have added the following significant accounting policies, which have been followed in preparing the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements: Principles of Consolidation - VIEs We are involved in certain entities that are considered variable interest entities ("VIEs") as defined under U.S. GAAP. Our involvement with VIEs is primarily to invest in assets that allow us to gain exposure to a broadly diversified portfolio of asset classes. A VIE is an entity that does not have sufficient equity to finance its own activities without additional financial support or where investors lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We assess our relationships to determine if we have the ability to direct the activities, or otherwise exert control, to evaluate if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If we determine we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE in our unaudited consolidated financial statements. See Note E Investments for additional information on our investments in VIEs. Revenue Recognition - Life Insurance and Annuity Premiums Our insurance premiums for traditional life insurance products are recognized as revenue when due from the contractholder, net of premiums ceded under reinsurance, and are included within Escrow, title-related, and other fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Our traditional life insurance products include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of term life insurance and certain annuities with life contingencies. Premium collections for FIA and fixed rate annuities, IUL policies and immediate annuities without life contingency are reported as an increase to deposit liabilities (i.e., contractholder funds) instead of as revenues. Similarly, cash payments to policyholders are reported as decreases in the liability for contractholder funds and not as expenses. Sources of revenues for products accounted for as deposit liabilities are net investment income, surrender and other charges deducted from contractholder funds, and net realized gains (losses) on investments. Surrender charges are earned when a policyholder withdraws funds from the contract early or cancels the contract. Revenue Recognition - Interest and investment income Dividends and interest income are recorded in Interest and investment income and recognized when earned. Income or losses upon call or prepayment of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are recognized in Interest and investment income. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on investments in fixed maturity securities are reflected in Interest and investment income over the contractual terms of the investments, and for callable investments at a premium, based on the earliest call date of the investments, in a manner that produces a constant effective yield. For mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, included in the fixed maturity available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities portfolios, we recognize income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated cash flows and the estimated economic life of the securities. When actual prepayments differ significantly from originally anticipated prepayments, the effective yield is generally recalculated prospectively to reflect actual payments to date plus anticipated future payments. Any adjustments resulting from changes in effective yield are reflected in Interest and investment income. For details on interest and investment income recognition on investments in unconsolidated affiliates and mortgage loans, refer to the respective subsections below. Interest and investment income is presented net of earned investment management fees. Insurance and Investment Product Fees and Other Product fee revenue from indexed universal life ("IUL") products and annuities is comprised of policy and contract fees charged for the cost of insurance, policy administration and rider fees. Fees are assessed on a monthly basis and recognized as revenue when earned. Product fee revenue also includes surrender charges which are collected and recognized as revenue when the policy is surrendered. Some of the product fee revenue is not level by policy year. The unearned portion of the revenues are deferred and brought into income relative to the gross profits of the business. Insurance and investment product fees and other are included within Escrow, title-related, and other fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, and unearned revenue liability is included within Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Benefits and Other Changes in Policy Reserves Benefit expenses for FIA, fixed rate annuities and IUL policies include index credits and interest credited to contractholder account balances and benefit claims in excess of contract account balances, net of reinsurance recoveries, are charged to expense in the period that they are earned by the policyholder based on their selected strategy. Interest crediting rates associated with funds invested in the general account of our insurance subsidiaries range from 0.5% to 6.0% for deferred annuities and FIAs combined, and 3.0% to 4.8% for IULs. Other changes in policy reserves include the change in the fair value of the FIA embedded derivative and the change in the reserve for secondary guarantee benefit payments. Other changes in policy reserves also include the change in reserves for life insurance products. For traditional life and immediate annuities, policy benefit claims are charged to expense in the period that the claims are incurred, net of reinsurance recoveries. Investment Securities Our investments in fixed maturity securities have been designated as AFS and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of associated intangible asset and unearned revenue ("UREV") “shadow adjustments” (discussed in Note M Intangibles), SOP 03-1 reserves and deferred income taxes. Our investments in equity securities and preferred securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Mortgage Loans Our investment in mortgage loans consists of commercial and residential mortgage loans on real estate, which are reported at amortized cost, less allowance for losses. For details on our policy around allowance for expected credit loss on mortgage loans, refer to Note E Investments. Commercial mortgage loans are continuously monitored by reviewing appraisals, operating statements, rent revenues, annual inspection reports, loan specific credit quality, property characteristics, market trends and other factors. Commercial mortgage loans are rated for the purpose of quantifying the level of risk. Loans are placed on a watch list when the debt service coverage ("DSC") ratio falls below and the loan-to-value ("LTV") ratios exceeds certain thresholds. Loans on the watchlist are closely monitored for collateral deficiency or other credit events that may lead to a potential loss of principal or interest. We define delinquent mortgage loans as 30 days past due, consistent with industry practice. Residential mortgage loans have a primary credit quality indicator of either a performing or nonperforming loan. We define nonperforming residential mortgage loans as those that are 90 or more days past due and/or in nonaccrual status which is assessed monthly. Generally, nonperforming residential mortgage loans have a higher risk of experiencing a credit loss. Interest on loans is recognized on an accrual basis at the applicable interest rate on the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees and direct costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are amortized as level yield adjustments over the respective loan terms. Unamortized net fees or costs are recognized upon early repayment of the loans. Loan commitment fees are deferred and amortized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan. Derivative Financial Instruments We hedge certain portions of our exposure to product related equity market risk by entering into derivative transactions (primarily call options). All such derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The changes in fair value are reported within Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We purchase financial instruments and issue products that may contain embedded derivative instruments. If it is determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract, and a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host contract for measurement purposes. The embedded derivative is carried at fair value, which is determined through a combination of market observable inputs such as market value of option and interest swap rates and unobservable inputs such as the mortality multiplier, surrender and withdrawal rates and non-performance spread. The changes in fair value are reported within Benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. See a description of the fair value methodology used in Note D Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method and use net asset value ("NAV") as a practical expedient to determine the carrying value. Income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates is included within Interest and investment income in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Recognition of income is delayed due to the availability of the related financial statements, which are obtained from the affiliate’s general partner generally on a one to three-month delay. Management meets quarterly with the general partner to determine whether any credit or other market events have occurred since prior quarter financial statements to ensure any material events are properly included in current quarter valuation and investment income. In addition, the impact of audit adjustments related to completion of calendar-year financial statement audits of the unconsolidated affiliates are typically received during the second quarter of each calendar year. Accordingly, our investment income from our investments in unconsolidated affiliates for any calendar-year period may not include the complete impact of the change in the underlying net assets for the unconsolidated affiliate for that calendar-year period. Intangible Assets Our intangible assets include an intangible asset reflecting the value of insurance and reinsurance contracts acquired (hereafter referred to as the value of business acquired (“VOBA”)), the value of distribution network acquired ("VODA"), deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducements (“DSI”), internally developed software, trademarks and state licenses. VOBA is an intangible asset that reflects the amount recorded as insurance contract liabilities less the estimated fair value of in-force contracts in a life insurance company acquisition. It represents the portion of the purchase price allocated to the value of the rights to receive future cash flows from the business in force at the acquisition date. VODA is an intangible asset that represents the value of an acquired distribution network. DAC consists principally of commissions that are related directly to the successful sale of new or renewal insurance contracts, which may be deferred to the extent recoverable. Indirect or unsuccessful acquisition costs, maintenance, product development and overhead expenses are charged to expense as incurred. DSI represents up front bonus credits and vesting bonuses to policyholder account values which may be deferred to the extent recoverable. The methodology for determining the amortization of DAC, DSI and VOBA varies by product type. For all insurance contracts accounted for under long-duration contract deposit accounting, amortization is based on assumptions consistent with those used in the development of the underlying contract liabilities adjusted for emerging experience and expected trends. For all of the insurance intangibles (DAC, DSI and VOBA), the balances are generally amortized over the lives of the policies in relation to the expected emergence of estimated gross profits (“EGPs”) from investment income, surrender charges and other product fees, less policy benefits, maintenance expenses, mortality net of reinsurance ceded, and expense margins. Recognized gains (losses) on investments, changes in fair value of the funds withheld coinsurance embedded derivative, and change in fair value of the embedded derivative on our FIA and IUL products are included in actual gross profits in the period realized as described further below. Internally developed software and trade name intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their deemed useful lives while VODA is amortized using the sum of years digits method. Amortization is reported within Depreciation and amortization in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Changes in assumptions, including our earned rate (i.e., long term assumptions of the Company’s expected earnings on related investments), budgeted option costs (i.e., the expected cost to purchase call options in future periods to fund the equity indexed linked feature) and surrender rates can have a significant impact on VOBA, DAC and DSI balances and amortization rates. Due to the relative size and sensitivity to minor changes in underlying assumptions of those intangible balances, we perform quarterly and annual analysis of the VOBA, DAC and DSI balances for recoverability to ensure that the unamortized portion does not exceed the expected recoverable amounts. At each evaluation date, actual historical gross profits are reflected with the impact on the intangibles reported as “unlocking” as a component of amortization expense, and estimated future gross profits and related assumptions are evaluated for continued reasonableness. Any adjustment in estimated future gross profits requires that the amortization rate be revised (“unlocking”) retroactively to the date of the policy or contract issuance. The cumulative unlocking adjustment is recognized as a component of current period amortization. Amortization expense of VOBA, DAC and DSI reflects an assumption for an expected level of credit-related investment losses. When actual credit-related investment losses are realized, we perform a retrospective unlocking of amortization for those intangibles as actual margins vary from expected margins. This unlocking is reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For investment-type products, the VOBA, DAC and DSI assets are adjusted for the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investments as if these gains (losses) had been realized, with corresponding credits or charges included in AOCI ("shadow adjustments"). Reinsurance Our insurance subsidiaries enter into reinsurance agreements with other companies in the normal course of business. Reinsurance agreements are reported on a gross basis in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset for amounts recoverable from reinsurers or as a component of other liabilities for amounts, such as premiums, owed to the reinsurers. Premiums and benefits are reported net of insurance ceded. The effects of certain reinsurance agreements are not accounted for as reinsurance as they do not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP. The assets and liabilities of certain reinsurance contracts are presented on a net basis in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively, when there is a right of offset explicit in the reinsurance agreement and deposit accounting is being applied. See Note P Reinsurance for details. Contractholder Funds The liabilities for contractholder funds for deferred annuities and IUL policies consist of contract account balances that accrue to the benefit of the contractholders. The liabilities for FIA policies consist of the value of the host contract plus the fair value of the indexed crediting feature of the policy, which is accounted for as an embedded derivative. The embedded derivative is carried at fair value in Contractholder funds in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in fair value reported in Benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, and changes in the related SOP 03-1 reserves resulting from unrealized gain/loss ("shadow adjustments") reported within Accumulated other comprehensive earnings in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See a description of the fair value methodology used in Note D Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Liabilities for immediate annuities with life contingencies are recorded at the present value of future benefits. Liabilities for the secondary guarantees on IUL-type products or Investment-type contracts are calculated by multiplying the benefit ratio by the cumulative assessments recorded from contract inception through the balance sheet date less the cumulative secondary guarantee benefit payments plus interest. The benefit ratio is the ratio of the present value of future secondary guarantees to the present value of the assessments used to provide the secondary guarantees using the same assumptions as we use for our intangible assets. If experience or assumption changes result in a new benefit ratio, the reserves are adjusted to reflect the changes in a manner similar to the unlocking of DAC, DSI and VOBA. The accounting for secondary guarantee benefits impact EGPs used to calculate amortization of DAC, DSI and VOBA. The SOP 03-1 reserve is adjusted for the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investments as if these gains (losses) had been realized, with corresponding credits or charges included in AOCI ("shadow adjustments"). Future Policy Benefits The liabilities for future policy benefits and claim reserves for traditional life policies and life contingent pay-out annuity policies are computed using assumptions for investment yields, mortality and withdrawals based on generally accepted actuarial methods and assumptions at the time of contract issue. Investment yield assumption for traditional direct life reserves for all contracts is 5.7%. The investment yield assumption for life contingent pay-out annuities is 2.5%. Policies are terminated through surrenders and maturities, where surrenders represent the voluntary terminations of policies by policyholders and maturities are determined by policy contract terms. Surrender assumptions are based upon cedant experience adjusted for expected future conditions. Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Agreements Contractholder funds include funds related to funding agreements that have been issued by the Company to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) as a funding medium for single premium funding agreements. The funding agreements (i.e., immediate annuity contracts without life contingencies) provide a guaranteed stream of payments or provide for a bullet payment with renewal provisions. Single premiums were received at the initiation of the funding agreements and were in the form of advances from the FHLB. Payments under the funding agreements extend through 2022. The reserves for the funding agreements are included in Contractholder funds in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In accordance with the agreements, the investments supporting the funding agreement liabilities are pledged as collateral to secure the FHLB funding agreement liabilities and are not available to settle our general obligations.

Acquisitions

F&G

On June 1, 2020, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of F&G for approximately $2.7 billion. In connection with the Merger, we issued approximately 24 million shares of FNF common stock and paid approximately $1.8 billion in cash to former holders of F&G ordinary and preferred shares. On August 26, 2020, we issued an additional 1 million shares of FNF common stock and paid approximately $100 million in cash to Kingfishers, LP., Kingstown Partners Master, LTD., Kingstown Partners II, LP., Kingstown 1740 Fund, LP. and Ktown, LP. (collectively the "Kingstown Dissenters"), who are former owners of F&G common stock. For more information related to the Kingstown Dissenters, refer to Note H Commitments and Contingencies. At closing, all outstanding shares of F&G common stock, excluding shares associated with the liability to former owners, were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Additionally, each outstanding F&G Option and F&G Phantom unit was cancelled and converted into options to purchase FNF common stock and phantom units denominated in FNF common stock, and each outstanding warrant to purchase F&G common stock was converted into the right to purchase and receive upon exercise $8.18 in cash and .0833 shares of FNF common stock. At closing, our subsidiaries' ownership of F&G common and preferred shares was converted into approximately 7 million shares of FNF common stock, which are reflected as treasury shares in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2020.

The initial purchase price is as follows (in millions):


Cash paid for outstanding F&G shares	$	1,903
Less: Cash Acquired	827
Net cash paid for F&G	1,076
Value of FNF share consideration	806
Value of outstanding converted equity awards attributed to services already rendered	28

Total net consideration paid	$	1,910

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations ("Topic 805").The purchase price has been allocated to F&G's assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on our best estimates of their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed represent a preliminary allocation as our evaluation of facts and circumstances available as of June 1, 2020 is ongoing. Goodwill has been recorded based on the amount that the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill consists primarily of intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill recorded is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes, except for $16 million related to a prior F&G transaction.

Pursuant to Topic 805, the financial statements will not be retrospectively adjusted for any provisional amount changes that occur in subsequent periods. Rather, we will recognize any provisional adjustments as we obtain information not available as of the completion of this preliminary fair value calculation as determined within the measurement period. We will also be required to record, in the same period as the financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of any change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the preliminary fair value amounts recognized for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (dollars in millions):


	Fair Value
Fixed maturity securities	$	22,389
Preferred securities	876
Equity securities	52
Derivative instruments	313
Mortgage loans	1,755
Investments in unconsolidated affiliates	1,049
Other long-term investments	430
Short-term investments	37

Trade and notes receivable	1
Reinsurance recoverable	3,241

Goodwill	1,731
Prepaid expenses and other assets	353
Lease assets	8
Other intangible assets	2,102
Income taxes receivable	27
Deferred tax asset	258
Assets of discontinued operations	2,392
Total assets acquired	37,014

Contractholder funds	26,456
Future policy benefits	4,106
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	860
Notes payable	589
Funds withheld for reinsurance liabilities	816

Lease liabilities	9


Liabilities of discontinued operations	2,268
Total liabilities assumed	35,104



Net assets acquired	$	1,910

The gross carrying value and weighted average estimated useful lives of Other intangible assets acquired in the F&G acquisition consist of the following (dollars in millions):


	Gross Carrying Value		Weighted Average Estimated Useful Life (in years)

Other intangible assets:

Value of business acquired	$	1,903	Various
Value of distribution network acquired	140		15
Trademarks and licenses	38		10
Software	21		2
Total Other intangible assets	2,102

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we adjusted the provisional amounts as of June 1, 2020 that were recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition dates that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of the acquisition date. Such adjustments resulted in an increase in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates of approximately $30 million, an increase in Goodwill of approximately $6 million, a decrease in Other intangible assets of approximately $37 million, an increase in Deferred tax asset of approximately $4 million, and various other, individually immaterial items. The related amortization and expense not previously recognized related to these adjustments is immaterial for the one month period ended June 30, 2020.

Pro-forma Financial Results

F&G's financial results since the acquisition date are reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. F&G's revenues and net earnings of $442 million and $38 million, respectively, are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2020. F&G's revenues and net loss of $566 million and $1 million, respectively, are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For comparative purposes, selected unaudited pro-forma consolidated results of operations of FNF for the three and nine-month periods ending September 30, 2020 and 2019 are presented below. Pro-forma results presented assume the consolidation of F&G occurred as of the beginning of the respective 2019 periods.




	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
	(In millions)
Total revenues	$	2,976	$	2,669	$	7,127	$	7,517
Net earnings attributable to FNF common shareholders	378		294		432		876

Amounts reflect certain pro forma adjustments to revenue and net earnings that were directly attributable to the acquisition, and for the elimination of historical activity between FNF and F&G prior to the acquisition. These adjustments include the following:

•elimination of valuation changes on FNF's investment in F&G common and preferred shares prior to the acquisition;

•elimination of dividends received by FNF related to its holdings of F&G's common and preferred shares prior to the acquisition

•elimination of advisory fees F&G paid to FNF

•elimination of transaction costs paid by F&G

•adjustment to record interest expense related to financing associated with the acquisition

•adjustment to reflect the elimination of historical amortization of F&G intangibles and the additional amortization of F&G intangibles measured at fair value as of the acquisition date

•adjustment to reflect the prospective reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive earnings of the unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities to a premium which will be amortized into income based on the expected life of the investment securities

Several lawsuits have been filed by various parties against Chicago Title Company and Chicago Title Insurance Company as its alter ego (collectively, the “Named Companies”), among others. Generally, plaintiffs claim they are investors who were solicited by Gina Champion-Cain to provide funds that purportedly were to be used for high-interest, short-term loans to parties seeking to acquire California alcoholic beverage licenses. Plaintiffs contend that under California state law, alcoholic beverage license applicants are required to escrow an amount equal to the license purchase price while their applications remain pending with the State. It is further alleged that Chicago Title Company participated with Ms. Champion-Cain and her entities in a fraud scheme involving an escrow account maintained by Chicago Title Company into which the plaintiffs’ funds were deposited. The lawsuits are as follows:

On October 22, 2019, a lawsuit styled, Ovation Fin. Holdings 2 LLC, Ovation Fund Mgmt. II, LLC, Banc of California, N.A. v. Chicago Title Ins. Co., Chicago Title Co., was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. Plaintiffs claim losses of more than $75 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek consequential, treble, and punitive damages. The Named Companies filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds, or alternatively, to stay the case. Following the court’s dismissal of certain federal law counts, Plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the entire federal action and refiled a similar action in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. The new state court lawsuit, filed October 1, 2020, is styled, Ovation Fin. Holdings 2 LLC, Ovation Fund Mgmt. II, LLC, Banc of California, N.A. v. Chicago Title Ins. Co., and plaintiffs claim losses of more than $100 million, as well as consequential and punitive damages. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On November 5, 2019, a putative class action lawsuit styled, Blake E. Allred and Melissa M. Allred v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Adelle E. Ducharme, Betty Elixman, Gina Champion-Cain, Joelle Hanson, Cris Torres, and Rachel Bond, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. Plaintiffs seek class certification and consequential, treble, and punitive damages. The Named Companies filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds, or alternatively, to stay the case. The court entered an order dismissing the federal law counts against the Named Companies without leave to amend, dismissing other counts with leave to amend, and denied the motion as to the remaining counts. Plaintiffs recently filed a notice indicating their intent to temporarily stay this action.

On December 13, 2019, a lawsuit styled, Kim Funding, LLC, Kim H. Peterson, Joseph J. Cohen, and ABC Funding Strategies, LLC v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, and Betty Elixman, was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses of more than $250 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek statutory, treble, and punitive damages. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On March 6, 2020, a lawsuit styled, Wakefield Capital, LLC, Wakefield Investments, LLC, 2Budz Holding, LLC, Doug and Kristine Heidrich, and Jeff and Heidi Orr v. Chicago Title Co. and Chicago Title Ins. Co., was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses in excess of of $7 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek punitive damages, recovery of attorneys’ fees, and disgorgement. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On March 16, 2020, a lawsuit styled, Randolph L. Levin, et al., v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, Betty Elixman, et al., was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses in excess of $38 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek punitive damages and the recovery of attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On May 29, 2020, a lawsuit styled, Mark Atherton, et al., v. Chicago Title Co. and Chicago Title Ins. Co., was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses of more than $30 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek statutory, treble, and punitive damages, as well as the recovery of attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On June 29, 2020, a lawsuit styled, Susan Heller Fenley Separate Property Trust, DTD 03/04/2010, Susan Heller Fenley Inherited Roth IRA, Shelley Lynn Tarditi Trust and ROJ, LLC v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, and Betty Elixman, was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses in excess of $6 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek statutory, treble, and punitive damages. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On June 29, 2020, a lawsuit styled, Yuan Yu and Polly Yu v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, and Betty Elixman, was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiffs claim losses in excess of $1 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek statutory, treble, and punitive damages. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On July 7, 2020, a cross-claim styled, Laurie Peterson v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, and Betty Elixman, was filed in an existing lawsuit styled, Banc of California, National Association v. Laurie Peterson, which is pending in Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Cross-complaint plaintiff was sued by a bank to recover more than $35 million that she allegedly guaranteed to repay for certain investments made by the Banc of California in the alcoholic beverage license scheme. Cross-complaint plaintiff has, in turn, sued the Named Companies in that action seeking over $250 million in monetary losses as well as exemplary damages and attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On September 3, 2020, a cross-claim styled, Kim H. Peterson Trustee of the Peterson Family Trust dated April 14 1992 v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., Thomas Schwiebert, Adelle Ducharme, and Betty Elixman, was filed in an existing lawsuit styled, CalPrivate Bank v. Kim H. Peterson Trustee of the Peterson Family Trust dated April 14 1992, which is pending in Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Cross-complaint plaintiff was sued by a bank to recover more than $13 million that the trustee allegedly guaranteed to repay for certain investments made by CalPrivate Bank in the alcoholic beverage license scheme. Cross-complaint plaintiff has, in turn, sued the Named Companies in that action for over $250 million

in monetary losses as well as exemplary damages and attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies are defending and filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on several grounds.

On October 23, 2020, a lawsuit styled, DH Claims LLC v. Chicago Title Co., Chicago Title Ins. Co., and Della Ducharme, was filed in the Superior Court of Orange County for the State of California. Plaintiff claims losses of approximately $2 million as a result of the alleged fraud scheme, and also seek statutory, treble, and punitive damages, as well as the recovery of attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies are defending and will file a response on or before the due date.

On November 2, 2020, a lawsuit styled, CalPrivate Bank v. Chicago Title Co. and Chicago Title Ins. Co., was filed in the Superior Court of San Diego County for the State of California. Plaintiff claims losses of approximately $13 million based upon business loan advances made in the alcoholic beverage license scheme, and also seeks punitive damages and the recovery of attorneys’ fees. The Named Companies will file a response on or before the due date.

In addition, the Chicago Title Company resolved a claim from another group of alleged investors under confidential terms during a pre-suit mediation.

At this time, the Company is unable to ascertain its liability, if any, and is unable to make an estimate of a reasonably possible claim loss for any of these claims due to the complex nature of the claims and litigation, the early procedural status of each claim (involving unresolved questions of fact without any rulings on the merits or determinations of liability), the extent of discovery not yet conducted, potential insurance coverage, and an incomplete evaluation of possible defenses, counterclaims, crossclaims or third-party claims that may exist. Moreover, it is likely that in some instances, the claims listed above are duplicative. The Company, however, has recorded an incurred claim loss reserve for legal fees related to these matters as of September 30, 2020, which is included in its consolidated reserve for claim losses. As further information becomes available, the Company will continue to evaluate the adequacy of its consolidated reserve for claim losses.

We continually update loss reserve estimates as new information becomes known, new loss patterns emerge or as other contributing factors are considered and incorporated into the analysis of reserve for claim losses. Estimating future title loss payments is difficult because of the complex nature of title claims, the long periods of time over which claims are paid, significantly varying dollar amounts of individual claims and other factors.

Due to the uncertainty inherent in the process and to the judgment used by management, the ultimate liability may be greater or less than our current reserves. If actual claims loss development varies from what is currently expected and is not offset by other factors, it is possible that additional reserve adjustments may be required in future periods in order to maintain our recorded reserve within a reasonable range of our actuary's central estimate.

F&G Insurance Subsidiary Financial Information and Regulatory Matters

Our U.S. insurance subsidiaries, FGL Insurance, Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company of New York ("FGL NY Insurance"), and Raven Re, file financial statements with state insurance regulatory authorities and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) that are prepared in accordance with Statutory Accounting Principles (“SAP”) prescribed or permitted by such authorities, which may vary materially from GAAP. Prescribed SAP includes the Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual of the NAIC as well as state laws, regulations and administrative rules. Permitted SAP encompasses all accounting practices not so prescribed. The principal differences between SAP financial statements and financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are that SAP financial statements do not reflect DAC, DSI and VOBA, some bond portfolios may be carried at amortized cost, assets and liabilities are presented net of reinsurance, contractholder liabilities are generally valued using more conservative assumptions and certain assets are non-admitted. Accordingly, SAP operating results and SAP capital and surplus may differ substantially from amounts reported in the GAAP basis financial statements for comparable items.

FSRC (Cayman), F&G Re (Bermuda), and F&G Life Re (Bermuda) file financial statements with their respective regulators that are based on U.S. GAAP.

FGL Insurance applies Iowa-prescribed accounting practices that permit Iowa-domiciled insurers to report equity call options used to economically hedge FIA index credits at amortized cost for statutory accounting purposes and to calculate FIA statutory reserves such that index credit returns will be included in the reserve only after crediting to the annuity contract. This resulted in a $71 million decrease to statutory capital and surplus at September 30, 2020.

FGL Insurance’s statutory carrying value of Raven Re reflects the effect of permitted practices Raven Re received to treat the available amount of a letter of credit as an admitted asset which increased Raven Re’s statutory capital and surplus by $100 million at September 30, 2020.

Raven Re is also permitted to follow Iowa prescribed statutory accounting practice for its reserves on reinsurance assumed from FGL Insurance which increased Raven Re’s statutory capital and surplus by $4 million at September 30, 2020. Without such permitted statutory accounting practices Raven Re’s statutory capital and surplus (deficit) would be $(10) million as of September 30, 2020, and its risk-based capital would fall below the minimum regulatory requirements. The letter of credit facility is collateralized by NAIC 1 rated debt securities. If the permitted practice was revoked, the letter of credit could be replaced by the collateral assets with Nomura’s consent. FGL Insurance’s statutory carrying value of Raven Re at September 30, 2020 was $94 million.

As of September 30, 2020, FGL NY Insurance did not follow any prescribed or permitted statutory accounting practices that differ from the NAIC's statutory accounting practices.

The prescribed and permitted statutory accounting practices have no impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements which are prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our measurement of fair value is based on assumptions used by market participants in pricing the asset or liability, which may include inherent risk, restrictions on the sale or use of an asset, or non-performance risk, which may include our own credit risk. We estimate an exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability (“exit price”) in the principal market, or the most advantageous market for that asset or liability in the absence of a principal market as opposed to the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or assume a liability (“entry price”). We categorize financial instruments carried at fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy, based on the priority of inputs to the respective valuation technique. The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:

Level 1 - Values are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices from those willing to trade in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by market data for the term of the instrument. Such inputs include market interest rates and volatilities, spreads, and yield curves.

Level 3 - Certain inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity) and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s best estimate of what hypothetical market participants would use to determine a transaction price for the asset or liability at the reporting date based on the best information available in the circumstances.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment.

When a determination is made to classify an asset or liability within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the determination is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement. Because certain securities trade in less liquid or illiquid markets with limited or no pricing information, the determination of fair value for these securities is inherently more difficult. In addition to the unobservable inputs, Level 3 fair value investments may include observable components, which are components that are actively quoted or can be validated to market-based sources.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments for which the disclosure of fair values is required, including financial assets and liabilities measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis, with the exception of investment contracts, portions of other long-term investments and debt which are disclosed later within this footnote, was summarized according to the hierarchy previously described, as follows (in millions):

Valuation Methodologies

Fixed Maturity Securities & Equity Securities

We measure the fair value of our securities based on assumptions used by market participants in pricing the security. The most appropriate valuation methodology is selected based on the specific characteristics of the fixed maturity or equity security, and we will then consistently apply the valuation methodology to measure the security’s fair value. Our fair value measurement is based on a market approach, which utilizes prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. Sources of inputs to the market approach include third-party pricing services, independent broker quotations, or pricing matrices. We use observable and unobservable inputs in our valuation methodologies. Observable inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including market research publications. In addition, market indicators and industry and economic events are monitored and further market data will be acquired when certain thresholds are met.

For certain security types, additional inputs may be used, or some of the inputs described above may not be applicable. The significant input used in the fair value measurement of equity securities for which the market approach valuation technique is employed is yield for comparable securities. Increases or decreases in the yields would result in lower or higher, respectively, fair value measurements. For broker-quoted only securities, quotes from market makers or broker-dealers are obtained from sources recognized to be market participants. We believe the broker quotes are prices at which trades could be executed based on historical trades executed at broker-quoted or slightly higher prices.

We analyze the third-party valuation methodologies and related inputs to perform assessments to determine the appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy. However, we did not adjust prices received from third parties as of September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair value of call option is based upon valuation pricing models, which represents what we would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date if we canceled the options, entered into offsetting positions, or exercised the options. Fair values for these instruments are determined internally, based on industry accepted valuation pricing models which use market-observable inputs, including interest rates, yield curve volatilities, and other factors.

The fair value of futures contracts represents the cumulative unsettled variation margin (open trade equity, net of cash settlements) which represents what we would expect to receive or pay at the balance sheet date if we canceled the contracts or entered into offsetting positions. These contracts are classified as Level 1.

The fair value measurement of the FIA embedded derivatives included in contractholder funds is determined through a combination of market observable information and significant unobservable inputs using the option budget method. The market observable inputs are the market value of option and treasury rates. The significant unobservable inputs are the budgeted option cost (i.e., the expected cost to purchase call options in future periods to fund the equity indexed linked feature), surrender rates, mortality multiplier and non-performance spread. The mortality multiplier at September 30, 2020 was applied to the Annuity 2000 mortality tables. Increases or decreases in the market value of an option in isolation would result in a higher or lower, respectively, fair value measurement. Increases or decreases in treasury rates, mortality multiplier, surrender rates, or non-performance spread in isolation would result in a lower or higher fair value measurement, respectively. Generally, a change in any one unobservable input would not directly result in a change in any other unobservable input.

The fair value of the reinsurance-related embedded derivative in the funds withheld reinsurance agreement with Kubera Insurance (SAC) Ltd. ("Kubera") is estimated based upon the fair value of the assets supporting the funds withheld from reinsurance liabilities. The fair value of the assets is based on a quoted market price of similar assets (Level 2), and therefore the fair value of the embedded derivative is based on market-observable inputs and classified as Level 2. Please see Note P Reinsurance for further discussion on F&G reinsurance agreements.

Other long-term investments

Fair value of the available-for-sale embedded derivative is based on an unobservable input, the net asset value of the fund at the balance sheet date. The embedded derivative is similar to a call option on the net asset value of the fund with a strike price of zero since Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company ("FGL Insurance") will not be required to make any additional payments at maturity of the fund-linked note in order to receive the net asset value of the fund on the maturity date. A Black-Scholes model determines the net asset value of the fund as the fair value of the call option regardless of the values used for the other inputs to the option pricing model. The net asset value of the fund is provided by the fund manager at the end of each calendar month and represents the value an investor would receive if it withdrew its investment on the balance sheet date. Therefore, the key unobservable input used in the Black-Scholes model is the value of the fund. As the value of the fund increases or decreases, the fair value of the embedded derivative will increase or decrease. See further discussion on the available-for-sale embedded derivative in Note F Derivative Financial Instruments.

The fair value of the credit-linked note is based on a weighted average of a broker quote and a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow approach is based on the expected portfolio cash flows and amortization schedule reflecting investment expectations, adjusted for assumptions on the portfolio's default and recovery rates, and the note's discount rate. The fair value of the note is provided by the fund manager at the end of each quarter.

Valuation Methodologies and Associated Inputs for Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

The following discussion outlines the methodologies and assumptions used to determine the fair value of our financial instruments not carried at fair value. Considerable judgment is required to develop these assumptions used to measure fair value. Accordingly, the estimates shown are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized in a one-time, current market exchange of all of our financial instruments.

Mortgage Loans

The fair value of mortgage loans is established using a discounted cash flow method based on internal credit rating, maturity and future income. This yield-based approach is sourced from our third-party vendor. The internal ratings for mortgages in good standing are based on property type, location, market conditions, occupancy, debt service coverage, loan-to-value, quality of tenancy, borrower, and payment record. The inputs used to measure the fair value of our mortgage loans are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Policy Loans (included within Other long-term investments)

Fair values for policy loans are estimated from a discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar credit risk. Loans with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.

Company Owned Life Insurance

Company owned life insurance (COLI) is a life insurance program used to finance certain employee benefit expenses. The fair value of COLI is based on net realizable value, which is generally cash surrender value. COLI is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Other Invested Assets (included within Other long-term investments)

The fair value of the bank loan is estimated using a discounted cash flow method with the discount rate based on weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). This yield-based approach is sourced from a third-party vendor and the WACC establishes a market participant discount rate by determining the hypothetical capital structure for the asset should it be underwritten as of each period end. Other invested assets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Investment Contracts

Investment contracts include deferred annuities, FIAs, indexed universal life policies ("IULs") and immediate annuities. The fair value of deferred annuity, FIA, and IUL contracts is based on their cash surrender value (i.e. the cost the Company would incur to extinguish the liability) as these contracts are generally issued without an annuitization date. The fair value of immediate annuities contracts is derived by calculating a new fair value interest rate using the updated yield curve and treasury spreads as of the respective reporting date. The Company is not required to, and has not, estimated the fair value of the liabilities under contracts that involve significant mortality or morbidity risks, as these liabilities fall within the definition of insurance contracts that are exceptions from financial instruments that require disclosures of fair value.

Other

FHLB common stock, Accounts receivable and Notes receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. FHLB common stock is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. Accounts receivable and Notes receivable are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Debt

The fair value of debt is based on quoted market prices. The inputs used to measure the fair value of our outstanding debt are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables provide the carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are carried on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts other than fair value, summarized according to the fair value hierarchy previously described.

For investments for which NAV is used as a practical expedient for fair value, we do not have any significant restrictions in our ability to liquidate their positions in these investments, other than obtaining general partner approval, nor do we believe it is probable a price less than NAV would be received in the event of a liquidation. Equity method investments are reported on a lag of up to three months for investee information not received timely.

We review the fair value hierarchy classifications each reporting period. Changes in the observability of the valuation attributes may result in a reclassification of certain financial assets or liabilities. Such reclassifications are reported as transfers in and out of Level 3, or between other levels, at the beginning fair value for the reporting period in which the changes occur. The transfers into and out of Level 3 were related to changes in the primary pricing source and changes in the observability of external information used in determining the fair value.

Allowance for Current Expected Credit Loss

Following the adoption of ASU 2016-13 and the related targeted improvements and transition relief amendments (see Note A Recent Accounting Pronouncements for further details) effective January 1, 2020, we regularly review AFS securities for declines in fair value that we determine to be credit related. For our fixed maturity AFS securities, we generally consider the following in determining whether our unrealized losses are credit related, and if so, the magnitude of the credit loss:

•The extent to which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis;

•The reasons for the decline in value (credit event, currency or interest-rate related, including general credit spread widening);

•The financial condition of and near-term prospects of the issuer (including issuer's current credit rating and the probability of full recovery of principal based upon the issuer's financial strength);

•Current delinquencies and nonperforming assets of underlying collateral;

•Expected future default rates;

•Collateral value by vintage, geographic region, industry concentration or property type;

•Subordination levels or other credit enhancements as of the balance sheet date as compared to origination; and

•Contractual and regulatory cash obligations and the issuer's plans to meet such obligations.

We recognize an allowance for current expected credit losses on fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position when it is determined, using the factors discussed above, a component of the unrealized loss is related to credit. We measure the credit loss using a discounted cash flow model that utilizes the single best estimate cash flow and the recognized credit loss is limited to the total unrealized loss on the security (i.e. the fair value floor). Cash flows are discounted using the implicit yield of bonds at their time of purchase and the current book yield for asset and mortgage backed securities as well as variable rate securities. We recognize the expected credit losses in Recognized gains and losses, net in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, with an offset for the amount of non-credit impairments recognized in AOCI. We do not measure a credit loss allowance on accrued investment income because we write-off accrued interest through to Interest and investment income when collectability concerns arise.

We consider the following in determining whether write-offs of a security’s amortized cost is necessary:

• We believe amounts related to securities have become uncollectible; or

• We intend to sell a security; or

• It is more likely than not that we will be required to sell a security prior to recovery.

If we intend to sell a fixed maturity AFS security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis and the fair value of the security is below amortized cost, we will write down the security to current fair value, with a corresponding charge, net of any amount previously recognized as an allowance for expected credit loss, to Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. If we do not intend to sell a fixed maturity security or it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell a fixed maturity security before recovery of its amortized cost basis but believe amounts related to a security are uncollectible (generally based on proximity to expected credit loss), an impairment is deemed to have occurred and the amortized cost is written down to the estimated recovery value with a corresponding charge, net of any amount previously recognized as an allowance for expected credit loss, to Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The remainder of unrealized loss is held in AOCI.

Purchased credit-deteriorated available-for-sale debt securities ("PCD"s) are AFS securities purchased at a discount, where part of that discount is attributable to credit . Credit loss allowances are calculated for these securities as of the date of their acquisition, with the initial allowance serving to increase amortized cost. The following table summarizes year to date PCD AFS security purchases (in millions).

We determined the significant increase in unrealized losses as of September 30, 2020 was caused by the significant widening of spreads in fixed income markets in response to the economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic. These widening spreads were in most cases driven by market illiquidity and perceived increases in credit risk. For securities in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2020 and an expected credit loss was not determined, we believe that the unrealized loss is being driven by interest rate declines or near-term illiquidity and uncertainty of the impact of COVID-19 on the economy as opposed to issuer specific credit concerns. Specific to asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities for which an expected credit loss was not determined, the effect of any increased expectations of underlying collateral defaults have not risen to the level of impacting the tranches of those securities.

Mortgage Loans

Our mortgage loans are collateralized by commercial and residential properties.

Commercial Mortgage Loans

Commercial mortgage loans ("CMLs") represented approximately 2% of our total investments as of September 30, 2020. We primarily invest in mortgage loans on income producing properties including hotels, industrial properties, retail buildings, multifamily properties and office buildings. We diversify our CML portfolio by geographic region and property type to attempt to reduce concentration risk. We continuously evaluate CMLs based on relevant current information to ensure properties are performing at a consistent and acceptable level to secure the related debt. The distribution of CMLs, gross of valuation allowances, by property type and geographic region is reflected in the following tables (dollars in millions):

All of our investments in CMLs had a loan-to-value ("LTV") ratio of less than 75% at September 30, 2020, as measured at inception of the loans unless otherwise updated.

LTV and debt service coverage ("DSC") ratios are measures commonly used to assess the risk and quality of mortgage loans. The LTV ratio is expressed as a percentage of the amount of the loan relative to the value of the underlying property. A LTV ratio in excess of 100% indicates the unpaid loan amount exceeds the underlying collateral. The DSC ratio, based upon the most recently received financial statements, is expressed as a percentage of the amount of a property’s net income to its debt service payments. A DSC ratio of less than 1.00 indicates that a property’s operations do not generate sufficient income to cover debt payments. We normalize our DSC ratios to a 25-year amortization period for purposes of our general loan allowance evaluation.

The following table presents the recorded investment in CMLs by LTV and DSC ratio categories and estimated fair value by the indicated loan-to-value ratios at September 30, 2020 (dollars in millions):


	Debt-Service Coverage Ratios				Total Amount	% of Total	Estimated Fair Value		% of Total

Commercial mortgage loans	$	539	$	7			$	546	100	%	$	560	100	%

We recognize a mortgage loan as delinquent when payments on the loan are greater than 30 days past due. At September 30, 2020, we had no CMLs that were delinquent in principal or interest payments.

Allowance for Expected Credit Loss

We estimate expected credit losses for our commercial loan portfolio using a probability of default/loss given default model. Significant inputs to this model include the loans current performance, underlying collateral type, location, contractual life, LTV, and DSC. The model projects losses using a two year reasonable and supportable forecast and then reverts over a three year period to market-wide historical loss experience. Changes in our allowance for expected credit losses on commercial mortgage loans are recognized in Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

Residential Mortgage Loans

Residential mortgage loans ("RMLs") represented approximately 3% of our total investments as of September 30, 2020. Our residential mortgage loans are closed end, amortizing loans and 100% of the properties are located in the United States. We diversify our RML portfolio by state to attempt to reduce concentration risk. The distribution of RMLs by state with highest-to-lowest concentration are reflected in the following tables (dollars in millions):


	September 30, 2020
U.S. State:	Unpaid Principal Balance		% of Total
California	$	189	17	%
Florida	186		17	%
New Jersey	100		9	%
All Other States (1)	621		57	%
Total mortgage loans	$	1,096	100	%

(1) The individual concentration of each state is less than 8% as of September 30, 2020.

Residential mortgage loans have a primary credit quality indicator of either a performing or nonperforming loan. We define non-performing residential mortgage loans as those that are 90 or more days past due or in nonaccrual status which is assessed monthly. The credit quality of RMLs as at September 30, 2020, was as follows (dollars in millions):

Allowance for Expected Credit Loss

We estimate expected credit losses for our mortgage loan portfolio using a probability of default/loss given default model. Significant inputs to this model include the loans' current performance, underlying collateral type, location, contractual life, LTV, and Debt to Income or FICO. The model projects losses using a two year reasonable and supportable forecast and then reverts over a three year period to market-wide historical loss experience. Changes in our allowance for expected credit losses on mortgage loans are recognized in Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Credit losses on purchase credit deteriorated (“PCD”) financial assets were recognized on the opening balance sheet for the amounts shown in the table below (in millions).

An allowance for expected credit loss is not measured on accrued interest income for commercial mortgage loans as we have a process to write-off interest on loans that enter into non-accrual status (over 90 days past due).

Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities

The Company owns investments in VIEs that are not consolidated within our financial statements, and one investment in a VIE that is considered consolidated within our financial statements. VIEs do not have sufficient equity to finance their own activities without additional financial support and certain of its investors lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. VIEs are consolidated by their ‘primary beneficiary’, a designation given to an entity that receives both the benefits from the VIE as well as the substantive power to make its key economic decisions. While the Company participates in the benefits from VIEs in which it invests, but does not consolidate, the substantive power to make the key economic decisions for each respective VIE resides with entities not under common control with the Company. It is for this reason that the Company is not considered the primary beneficiary for the VIE investments that are not consolidated.

We have concluded we are the primary beneficiary of one VIE. The primary beneficiary conclusion was drawn given the fact that substantially all of the VIE’s activities are conducted on our behalf and we are the sole investor and limited partner. As we are considered the primary beneficiary, this VIE is consolidated within our financial statements. As of September 30, 2020, we have $75 million of net assets recorded related to this VIE.

We previously executed a commitment of $83 million to purchase common shares in an unaffiliated private business development company ("BDC"). The BDC invests in secured and unsecured fixed maturity and equity securities of middle market companies in the United States. Due to the voting structure of the transaction, the Company does not have voting power. As of September 30, 2020, the BDC was listed on the NASDAQ.

We invest in various limited partnerships as a passive investor. These investments are in credit funds with a bias towards current income, real assets, or private equity. Limited partnership interests are accounted for under the equity method and are included in Investments in unconsolidated affiliates on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these investments is limited to the investment carrying amounts reported in our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in addition to any required unfunded commitments. As of September 30, 2020, our maximum exposure to loss was $1,161 million in recorded carrying value and $1,343 million in unfunded commitments.

Investment with Related Party

Included in equity securities as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are 5,706,134 shares of Cannae common stock (NYSE: CNNE) which were purchased during the fourth quarter of 2017 in connection with the split-off of our former portfolio company investments to Cannae. The fair value of our related party investment based on quoted market prices is $213 million and $212 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Additional Disclosures

FIA Embedded Derivative and Call Options and Futures

We have FIA Contracts that permit the holder to elect an interest rate return or an equity index linked component, where interest credited to the contracts is linked to the performance of various equity indices, primarily the S&P 500 Index. This feature represents an embedded derivative under GAAP. The FIA embedded derivative is valued at fair value and included in the liability for contractholder funds in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in fair value included as a component of Benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. See a description of the fair value methodology used in Note E Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

We purchase derivatives consisting of a combination of call options and futures contracts on the applicable market indices to fund the index credits due to FIA contractholders. The call options are one, two, three, and five year options purchased to match the funding requirements of the underlying policies. On the respective anniversary dates of the index policies, the index used to compute the interest credit is reset and we purchase new one, two, three, or five year call options to fund the next index credit. We manage the cost of these purchases through the terms of our FIA contracts, which permit us to change caps, spreads or participation rates, subject to guaranteed minimums, on each contract’s anniversary date. The change in the fair value of the call options and futures contracts is generally designed to offset the portion of the change in the fair value of the FIA embedded derivative related to index performance through the current credit period. The call options and futures contracts are marked to fair value with the change in fair value included as a component of Realized gains and losses, net. The change in fair value of the call options and futures contracts includes the gains and losses recognized at the expiration of the instrument term or upon early termination and the changes in fair value of open positions.

Other market exposures are hedged periodically depending on market conditions and our risk tolerance. Our FIA hedging strategy economically hedges the equity returns and exposes us to the risk that unhedged market exposures result in divergence between changes in the fair value of the liabilities and the hedging assets. We use a variety of techniques, including direct estimation of market sensitivities, to monitor this risk daily. We intend to continue to adjust the hedging strategy as market conditions and our risk tolerance changes.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by our counterparties on the call options and reflect assumptions regarding this non-performance risk in the fair value of the call options. The non-performance risk is the net counterparty exposure based on the fair value of the open contracts less collateral held. We maintain a policy of requiring all derivative contracts to be governed by an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreement.

Information regarding our exposure to credit loss on the call options we hold as of September 30, 2020, is presented in the following table (in millions):

Collateral Agreements

The Company is required to maintain minimum ratings as a matter of routine practice as part of its over-the-counter derivative agreements on ISDA forms. Under some ISDA agreements, the Company has agreed to maintain certain financial strength ratings. A downgrade below these levels provides the counterparty under the agreement the right to terminate the open option contracts between the parties, at which time any amounts payable by the Company or the counterparty would be dependent on the market value of the underlying option contracts. The Company's current rating doesn't allow any counterparty the right to terminate ISDA agreements. In certain transactions, the Company and the counterparty have entered into a collateral support agreement requiring either party to post collateral when the net exposures exceed pre-determined thresholds. For all counterparties, except Merrill Lynch, Credit Suisse, and Truist, this threshold is set to zero. As of September 30, 2020, counterparties posted $335 million of collateral of which $320 million is included in cash

and cash equivalents with an associated payable for this collateral included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Accordingly, the maximum amount of loss due to credit risk that the Company would incur if parties to the call options failed completely to perform according to the terms of the contracts was $47 million at September 30, 2020.

The Company is required to pay counterparties the effective federal funds rate each day for cash collateral posted to F&G for daily mark to market margin changes. The Company reinvests derivative cash collateral to reduce the interest cost. Cash collateral is invested in overnight investment sweep products which are included in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company held 399 futures contracts at September 30, 2020. The fair value of the futures contracts represents the cumulative unsettled variation margin (open trade equity, net of cash settlements). The Company provides cash collateral to the counterparties for the initial and variation margin on the futures contracts which is included in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount of cash collateral held by the counterparties for such contracts was $5 million at September 30, 2020.

Reinsurance Related Embedded Derivatives

FGL Insurance entered into a reinsurance agreement with Kubera effective December 31, 2018, to cede certain MYGA and deferred annuity statutory reserve on a coinsurance funds withheld basis, net of applicable existing reinsurance. Fair value movements in the funds withheld balances associated with this arrangement create create an obligation for FGL Insurance to pay Kubera at a later date, which results in an embedded derivative. This embedded derivative is considered a total return swap with contractual returns that are attributable to the assets and liabilities associated with this reinsurance arrangement. The fair value of the total return swap is based on the change in fair value of the underlying assets held in the funds withheld portfolio. Investment results for the assets that support the coinsurance with funds withheld reinsurance arrangement, including gains and losses from sales, were passed directly to the reinsurer pursuant to contractual terms of the reinsurance arrangement. The reinsurance related embedded derivative is reported in prepaid expenses and other assets if in a net gain position, or accounts payable and accrued liabilities, if in a net loss position, on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the related gains or losses are reported in Recognized gains and losses, net on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

On October 29, 2020, we entered into the Fifth Restated Credit Agreement for our Amended Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and the other agents party thereto. Among other changes, the Fifth Restated Credit Agreement amends the Fourth Restated Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date from April 27, 2022 to October 29, 2025.The material terms of the Fourth Restated Credit Agreement are set forth in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, there was no principal outstanding, $2 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, and $800 million of available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. On September 15, 2020, we completed our underwritten public offering of $600 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.45% Notes due March 15, 2031 (the "2.45% Notes") pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange

Commission ("SEC"). The net proceeds from the registered offering of the 2.45% Notes were approximately $593 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering (i) to repay all our $260 million outstanding indebtedness under the Term Loan, and (ii) for general corporate purposes.

On June 12, 2020, we completed our underwritten public offering of $650 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.40% Notes due June 15, 2030 (the “3.40% Notes”) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the SEC. The net proceeds from the registered offering of the 3.40% Notes were approximately $642 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, and commissions and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering (i) to repay $640 million of the outstanding principal amount under the Term Loan, and (ii) for general corporate purposes.

On June 1, 2020, as a result of the F&G acquisition, we assumed a $250 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity date of November 30, 2020 (the “F&G Credit Agreement”), originally entered into by subsidiaries of F&G on November 30, 2017. The F&G Credit Agreement was entered into with certain financial institutions party thereto, as lenders, and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and letter of credit issuer. As of September 30, 2020, there was no principal outstanding and $250 million of available borrowing capacity under the F&G Credit Agreement. On October 29, 2020, we terminated the F&G Credit Agreement.

On June 1, 2020, as a result of the F&G acquisition, we assumed $550 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% senior notes due 2025 (the "5.50% F&G Notes"), originally issued on April 20, 2018 at 99.5% of face value for proceeds of $547 million.

In connection with the acquisition of F&G, on April 22, 2020, we entered into the Term Loan, which provided for an aggregate principal borrowing of $1.0 billion with Bank of America, N.A, as the Administrative Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agent, and the other lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Term Lenders”), pursuant to which the Term Lenders provided the $1.0 billion Term Loan. The Term Loan matures on April 21, 2021 and generally accrues interest based on a fluctuating rate per annum based on either (i) the base rate (which is equal to the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5% of 1%, (b) the Administrative Agent’s "prime rate," and (c) LIBOR plus 1% (with a floor of 1.75%)), plus a margin of between 1% and 2% depending on the FNF Debt Rating or (ii) LIBOR (with a floor of 0.75%) plus a margin of between 2% and 0.03 depending on the FNF Debt Rating. On June 1, 2020, we drew down the full $1.0 billion in aggregate principal to fund a portion of the acquisition of F&G. On June 12, 2020 we repaid $640 million of principal on the Term Loan and an additional $100 million of principal on July 31, 2020. On September 15, 2020, we repaid the remaining $260 million in principal on the Term Loan. As of September 30, 2020, we had no principal outstanding under the Term Loan.

On August 13, 2018, we completed an offering of $450 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.50% notes due August 2028 (the "4.50% Notes"), pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 4.50% Notes were priced at 99.252% of par to yield 4.594% annual interest. We pay interest on the 4.50% Notes semi-annually on the 15th of February and August, beginning February 15, 2019. The 4.50% Notes contain customary covenants and events of default for investment grade public debt, which primarily relate to failure to make principal or interest payments. On May 16, 2019, we completed an offering to exchange the 4.50% Notes for substantially identical notes registered pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "4.50% Notes Exchange"). There were no material changes to the terms of the 4.50% Notes as a result of the 4.50% Notes Exchange and all holders of the 4.50% Notes accepted the offer to exchange.

On August 28, 2012, we completed an offering of $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% notes due September 2022 (the "5.50% Notes"), pursuant to an effective registration statement previously filed with the SEC. The material terms of the 5.50% Notes are set forth in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal and Regulatory Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation matters related to our operations, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. With respect to our title insurance operations, this customary litigation includes but is not limited to a wide variety of cases arising out of or related to title and escrow claims, for which we make provisions through our loss reserves. See Note C Summary of Reserve for Title Claim Losses for further discussion. Additionally, like other companies, our ordinary course litigation includes a number of class action and purported class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to aspects of our operations. We believe that no actions, other than the matters discussed below, if any, depart from customary litigation incidental to our business.

We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively “legal proceedings”) on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings in which it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts and which represents our best estimate has been recorded. Our accrual for legal and regulatory matters was $16 million and $22 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. None of the amounts we have currently recorded are considered to be material to our financial condition individually or in the aggregate. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending legal proceedings is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period if an unfavorable outcome results, at present we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

In a class action captioned, Patterson, et al. v. Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, et al., originally filed on October 27, 2003, and pending in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, plaintiffs allege the named Company underwriters violated Pennsylvania’s Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law (“UTPCPL”) by failing to provide premium discounts in accordance with filed rates in refinancing transactions. Contrary to rulings in similar federal court cases that considered the rate rule and agreed with the Company’s position, the court held that the rate rule should be interpreted such that an institutional mortgage in the public record is a “proxy” for prior title insurance entitling a consumer to a discount rate when refinancing when there is a mortgage of record within the number of years required by the rate rule. The rate rule requires sufficient evidence of a prior policy, and because not all institutional mortgages were insured, the Company’s position is that a recorded first mortgage alone does not constitute sufficient evidence of an earlier policy entitling consumers to a discounted rate. The court certified the class refusing to follow prior Pennsylvania Supreme Court and appellate court decisions holding that the UTPCPL requires proof of reliance, an individual issue that precludes certification. After notice to the class, plaintiffs moved for partial summary judgment on liability, and defendants moved for summary judgment. On June 27, 2018, the court entered an order granting plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment on liability, and denying the Company’s motion. The court also determined that a multiplier of 1.5, not treble, should be applied to the amount of damages, if any, proven by class members at trial, and that Plaintiffs should bear the responsibility of identifying class members and calculating damages. The Company’s requests for interlocutory appeals of both the liability and damage multiplier issues were denied. The parties reached an agreement to resolve the matter on a class wide basis, and the claims period ended with no objectors. Final judgment approving the class action settlement was entered, and settlement payments were completed. This matter is now closed.

Two lawsuits have been filed related to FNF’s acquisition of F&G. On August 4, 2020, a stockholder derivative lawsuit styled, City of Miami General Employees’ and Sanitation Employees’ Retirement Trust v. Fidelity National Financial, et al., was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company, its Board of Directors and others alleging breach of fiduciary duties as directors and officers relating to FNF’s acquisition of F&G. A response will be filed on or before the due date. On August 17, 2020, a lawsuit styled, In the Matter of FGL Holdings, was filed in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands where dissenting shareholders, Kingfishers LP, Kingstown 1740 Fund LP, Kingstown Partners II LP, Kingstown Partners Master Ltd., and Ktown LP, have asserted statutory appraisal rights relative to their ownership of 12,000,000 shares of F&G stock in connection with the acquisition. They seek a judicial determination of the fair value of their shares of F&G stock under the law of the Cayman Islands, together with interest. We will vigorously defend both matters and we do not believe the result will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

From time to time we receive inquiries and requests for information from state insurance departments, attorneys general and other regulatory agencies about various matters relating to our business. Sometimes these take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. We cooperate with all such inquiries and we have responded to or are currently responding to inquiries from multiple governmental agencies. Also, regulators and courts have been dealing with issues arising from foreclosures and related processes and documentation. Various governmental entities are studying the title insurance product, market, pricing, and business practices, and potential regulatory and legislative changes, which may materially affect our business and operations. From time to time, we are assessed fines for violations of regulations or other matters or enter into settlements with such authorities which may require us to pay fines or claims or take other actions. We do not anticipate such fines and settlements, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Acquired Contingencies - F&G

We have received inquiries from a number of state regulatory authorities regarding our use of the U.S. Social Security Administration’s Death Master File (“Death Master File”) and compliance with state claims practices regulations and unclaimed property or escheatment laws. We have established procedures to periodically compare our in-force life insurance and annuity policies against the Death Master File or similar databases; investigate any identified potential matches to confirm the death of the insured; and determine whether benefits are due and attempt to locate the beneficiaries of any benefits due or, if no beneficiary can be located, escheat the benefit to the state as unclaimed property. We believe we have established sufficient reserves with respect to these matters; however, it is possible that third parties could dispute these amounts and additional payments or additional unreported claims or liabilities could be identified which could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

F&G Commitments

The Company has unfunded investment commitments as of September 30, 2020 based upon the timing of when investments are executed compared to when the actual investments are funded, as some investments require that funding occur over a period of months or years.

Our Direct title insurance premiums are recognized as revenue at the time of closing of the underlying transaction as the earnings process is then considered complete. Regulation of title insurance rates varies by state. Premiums are charged to customers based on rates predetermined in coordination with each states' respective Department of Insurance. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing of the underlying real estate transaction. Premium revenues from agency title operations are recognized when the underlying title order and transaction closing, if applicable, are complete.

Revenues from our home warranty business are generated from contracts with customers to provide warranty for major home appliances. Substantially all of our home warranty contracts are one year in length and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the contract.

Escrow fees and Other title-related fees and income in our Title segment are closely related to Direct title insurance premiums and are primarily associated with managing the closing of real estate transactions including the processing of funds on behalf of the transaction participants, gathering and recording the required closing documents, providing notary and home inspection services, and other real estate or title-related activities. Revenue is primarily recognized upon closing of the underlying real estate transaction or completion of services. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing.

Revenues from ServiceLink, excluding its title premiums, escrow fees and loan subservicing fees primarily include revenues from real estate appraisal services and foreclosure processing and facilitation services. Revenues from real estate appraisal services are recognized when all appraisal work is complete, a final report is issued to the client and the client is billed. Revenues from foreclosure processing and facilitation services are primarily recognized upon completion of the services and when billing to the client is complete.

Life insurance premiums in our F&G segment reflect premiums for traditional life insurance products and life-contingent immediate annuity products which are recognized as revenue when due from the policyholder. We have ceded the majority of our traditional life business to unaffiliated third party reinsurers. While the base contract has been reinsured, we continue to retain the return of premium rider. Insurance and investment product fees and other consist primarily of the cost of insurance on IUL policies, unearned revenue ("UREV") on IUL policies, policy rider fees primarily on FIA policies and surrender charges assessed against policy withdrawals in excess of the policyholder's allowable penalty-free amounts.

Real estate technology revenues are primarily comprised of subscription fees for use of software provided to real estate professionals. Subscriptions are only offered on a month-by-month basis and fees are billed monthly. Revenue is recognized in the month services are provided.

Real estate brokerage revenues are primarily comprised of commission revenues earned in association with the facilitation of real estate transactions and are recognized upon closing of the sale of the underlying real estate transaction.

Loan subservicing revenues are generated by certain subsidiaries of ServiceLink and are associated with the servicing of mortgage loans on behalf of its customers. Revenue is recognized when the underlying work is performed and billed. Loan subservicing revenues are subject to the recognition requirements of ASC Topic 860.

Interest and investment income consists primarily of interest payments received on fixed maturity security holdings and dividends received on equity and preferred security holdings.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, primarily related to revenue from our home warranty business, and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Contract Balances

The following table provides information about trade receivables and deferred revenue:


	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
	(In millions)
Trade receivables	$	348	$	321
Deferred revenue (contract liabilities)	113		111

Deferred revenue is recorded primarily for our home warranty contracts. Revenues from home warranty products are recognized over the life of the policy, which is primarily one year. The unrecognized portion is recorded as deferred revenue in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $48 million and $97 million of revenue, respectively, which was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.

The entire disclosure of revenue from contract with customer to transfer good or service and to transfer nonfinancial asset. Includes, but is not limited to, disaggregation of revenue, credit loss recognized from contract with customer, judgment and change in judgment related to contract with customer, and asset recognized from cost incurred to obtain or fulfill contract with customer. Excludes insurance and lease contracts.

A summary of the changes in the carrying amounts of the Company's VOBA, DAC and DSI intangible assets are as follows (in millions):


	VOBA		DAC		DSI		Total

Balance at September 30, 2020	$	1,630	$	113	$	19	$	1,762

Amortization of VOBA, DAC, and DSI is based on the current and future expected gross margins or profits recognized, including investment gains and losses. The interest accrual rate utilized to calculate the accretion of interest on VOBA ranged from 0% to 4.71%. The adjustment for unrealized net investment losses (gains) represents the amount of VOBA, DAC, and DSI that would have been amortized if such unrealized gains and losses had been recognized. This is referred to as the “shadow adjustments” as the additional amortization is reflected in AOCI rather than the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. As of September 30, 2020, the VOBA balances included cumulative adjustments for net unrealized investment gains of $228 million, the DAC balances included cumulative adjustments for net unrealized investment gains of $15 million, and the DSI balance included net unrealized investment gains of $4 million.

For the inforce liabilities as of September 30, 2020, the estimated amortization expense for VOBA in future fiscal periods is as follows (in millions):

2021	146
2022	197
2023	198

Discontinued Operations	Discontinued Operations In connection with the F&G acquisition, certain third party offshore reinsurance businesses acquired were deemed discontinued operations and are presented as such within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three and four months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we have agreed to sell F&G Reinsurance Ltd (“F&G Re”) to Aspida Holdings Ltd (“Aspida”). The closing of the transaction is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2020. The sale will be subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval. The transaction is expected to have no material impact to our GAAP financial results. F&G and Aspida will enter into a funds withheld reinsurance agreement wherein F&G will cede a quota share of MYGA sales occurring after the closing date of the sale.

F&G Reinsurance

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2020

Reinsurance Disclosures [Abstract]

F&G Reinsurance

F&G reinsures portions of its policy risks with other insurance companies. The use of indemnity reinsurance does not discharge an insurer from liability on the insurance ceded. The insurer is required to pay in full the amount of its insurance liability regardless of whether it is entitled to or able to receive payment from the reinsurer. The portion of risks exceeding F&G's retention limit is reinsured. F&G primarily seeks reinsurance coverage in order to limit its exposure to mortality losses and enhance capital management. F&G follows reinsurance accounting when there is adequate risk transfer. Otherwise, the deposit method of accounting is followed. F&G also assumes policy risks from other insurance companies.

The effect of reinsurance on net premiums earned and net benefits incurred (benefits paid and reserve changes) for the periods ended September 30, 2020 were as follows (in millions):


	Three months ended				Four months ended
	September 30, 2020					September 30, 2020
	Net Premiums Earned		Net Benefits Incurred				Net Premiums Earned	Net Benefits Incurred
Direct	$	48	$	308			65	463
Assumed	—		—				—	—
Ceded	(36)		(57)				(49)	(57)
Net	$	12	$	251			16	406

Amounts payable or recoverable for reinsurance on paid and unpaid claims are not subject to periodic or maximum limits. F&G did not write off any significant reinsurance balances during the three and four months ended September 30, 2020. F&G did not commute any ceded reinsurance treaties during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Following the adoption of ASC 326, F&G estimate expected credit losses on reinsurance recoverables using a probability of default/loss given default model. Significant inputs to the model include the reinsurers credit risk, expected timing of recovery, industry-wide historical default experience, senior unsecured bond recovery rates, and credit enhancement features. As of the acquisition of F&G, due to purchase accounting adjustments, our expected credit loss reserve was valued at $0. During the four months ended September 30, 2020, the expected credit loss reserve was increased to $22 million.

No policies issued by F&G have been reinsured with any foreign company, which is controlled, either directly or indirectly, by a party not primarily engaged in the business of insurance.

F&G has not entered into any reinsurance agreements in which the reinsurer may unilaterally cancel any reinsurance for reasons other than non-payment of premiums or other similar credit issues.

Effective January 1, 2017, FGL Insurance entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement with Hannover Re, a third party reinsurer, to reinsure an inforce block of its FIA and fixed deferred annuity contracts with guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits ("GMWB") and Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (“GMDB”) guarantees. In accordance with the terms of this agreement, FGL Insurance cedes a quota share percentage of the net retention of guarantee payments in excess of account value for GMWB and GMDB guarantees. The effects of this agreement are not accounted for as reinsurance as it does not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP, since it is not “reasonably possible” that the reinsurer may realize significant loss from assuming the insurance risk. Effective July 1, 2017, FGL Insurance extended this agreement to include new business issued during 2017. Effective January 1, 2018 FGL Insurance extended this agreement to include new business issued during 2018, and extended the recapture period from 8 to 12 years. Effective January 1, 2019, FGL Insurance extended this agreement to include new business issued during 2019. FGL Insurance incurred risk charge fees of $5 million and $7 million during the three and four months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, in relation to this reinsurance agreement.

Effective December 31, 2018, FGL Insurance entered into a reinsurance agreement with Kubera to cede approximately $758 million of certain MYGA and deferred annuity GAAP reserve on a coinsurance funds withheld basis, net of applicable existing reinsurance. In accordance with the terms of this agreement, FGL Insurance cedes a quota share percentage of MYGA and deferred annuity policies for certain issue years to Kubera. Effective June 30, 2019, FGL Insurance and Kubera executed a letter of intent to amend this agreement and cede an additional $185 million of MYGA GAAP reserves on a coinsurance funds withheld basis via a quota share percentage of certain issue years. The amended reinsurance agreement was executed on July 31, 2019.

Effective December 31, 2018, FGL Insurance entered into a reinsurance agreement with Kubera to cede approximately $4.0 billion of certain FIA statutory reserves on a coinsurance funds withheld basis, net of

applicable existing reinsurance. In accordance with the terms of this agreement, FGL Insurance cedes a quota share percentage of FIA policies for certain issue years to Kubera. The effects of this agreement are not accounted for as reinsurance as it does not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP, since it is not “reasonably possible” that the reinsurer may realize significant loss from assuming the insurance risk. Effective June 30, 2019, FGL Insurance and Kubera executed a letter of intent to amend this agreement and cede an additional $1.0 billion of FIA statutory reserves on a coinsurance funds withheld basis via a quota share percentage of certain issue years. The amended reinsurance agreement was executed on July 31, 2019. The effects of the amendment are also not accounted for as reinsurance as it does not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP.

Effective May 1, 2020, FGL Insurance entered into an indemnity reinsurance agreement with Canada Life Assurance Company United States Branch, a third party reinsurer, to reinsure FIA policies with guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits ("GMWB"). In accordance with the terms of this agreement, FGL Insurance cedes a quota share percentage of the net retention of guarantee payments in excess of account value for GMWB. The effects of this agreement are not accounted for as reinsurance as it does not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP, since it is not “reasonably possible” that the reinsurer may realize significant loss from assuming the insurance risk.

Concentration of Reinsurance Risk

F&G has a significant concentration of reinsurance risk with third party reinsurers, Wilton Reassurance Company (“Wilton Re”) and Kubera Insurance (SAC) Ltd. ("Kubera"), that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position in the event that either Wilton Re or Kubera fail to perform their obligations under the various reinsurance treaties. Wilton Re is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPPIB"). CPPIB has an AAA issuer credit rating from Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") as of September 30, 2020. Kubera is not rated, however, management has attempted to mitigate the risk of non-performance through the funds withheld arrangement. As of September 30, 2020, the net amount recoverable from Wilton Re was $1,468 million and the net amount recoverable from Kubera was $821 million. The Company monitors both the financial condition of individual reinsurers and risk concentration arising from similar activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to attempt to reduce the risk of default by such reinsurers. The Company believes that all amounts due from Wilton Re and Kubera for periodic treaty settlements are collectible as of September 30, 2020.

Basis of Financial Statements (Policies)	9 Months Ended
Basis of Financial Statements (Policies)	Sep. 30, 2020
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Financial Statements	The financial information in this report presented for interim periods is unaudited and includes the accounts of Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” “our,” the "Company" or “FNF”) prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All adjustments made were of a normal, recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K (our "Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share, as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings, is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders in a given period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during such period. In periods when earnings are positive, diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities. For periods when we recognize a net loss, diluted earnings per share is equal to basic earnings per share as the impact of assumed conversions of potentially dilutive securities is considered to be antidilutive. We have granted certain stock options, shares of restricted stock and certain other convertible share based payments which have been treated as common share equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share for periods in which positive earnings have been reported. Options or other instruments which provide the ability to purchase shares of our common stock that are antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU introduce broad changes to accounting for credit impairment of financial instruments. The primary updates include the introduction of a new current expected credit loss ("CECL") model that is based on expected rather than incurred losses and amendments to the accounting for impairment of fixed maturity securities available for sale. The method used to measure estimated credit losses for fixed maturity available-for-sale securities will be unchanged from current GAAP; however, the amendments require credit losses to be recognized through an allowance rather than as a reduction to the amortized cost of those securities. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Results for reporting period beginning after December 15, 2019 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. We adopted this standard using the prospective transition approach for debt securities for which other than temporary impairment had been recognized prior to January 1, 2020. As a result, the amortized cost basis remains the same before and after the effective date of ASC 326. The effective interest rate on these debt securities was not changed. Amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income as of January 1, 2020 relating to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected will be accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset. Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after January 1, 2020 will be recorded in earnings when received. See Note E Investments for further discussion of the adoption as it relates to our fixed maturity securities available for sale. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by removing step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit. The new guidance requires goodwill impairment to be measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We have adopted this standard as of January 1, 2020 and are applying this guidance on a prospective basis. The overall effect of Topic 350 had no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. The new guidance introduces the following requirements: for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, investors are required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee's assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse if the investee has communicated timing to the entity or announced timing publicly; entities should use the measurement uncertainty disclosure to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date; entities must disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, as well as the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, or other quantitative information in lieu of weighted average if the entity determines such information would be more reasonable and rational; and entities are no longer required to disclose the amounts and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this standard on June 1, 2020 as a result of our acquisition of F&G, and the overall effect of Topic 820 on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements was not material upon adoption. In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810), Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Under this update, entities must consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis to determine whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. We adopted this standard on June 1, 2020 as a result of our acquisition of F&G, and it did not have an impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 Income Taxes - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance and will be applied using different approaches depending on what the specific amendment relates to and, for public entities, are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures upon adoption. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944), Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 including interim periods within those fiscal years. In June of 2020, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASU 2018-12 for one-year in response to implementation challenges resulting from COVID-19. This update introduced the following requirements: assumptions used to measure cash flows for traditional and limited-payment contracts must be reviewed at least annually with the effect of changes in those assumptions being recognized in the statement of operations; the discount rate applied to measure the liability for future policy benefits and limited-payment contracts must be updated at each reporting date with the effect of changes in the rate being recognized in other comprehensive income; market risk benefits associated with deposit contracts must be measured at fair value, with the effect of the change in the fair value attributable to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk being recognized in other comprehensive income; deferred acquisition costs are required to be amortized in proportion to premiums, gross profits, or gross margins and those balances must be amortized on a constant level basis over the expected term of the related contracts; deferred acquisition costs must be written off for unexpected contract terminations; and disaggregated rollforwards of beginning to ending balances of the liability for future policy benefits, policyholder account balances, market risk benefits, separate account liabilities and deferred acquisition costs, as well as information about significant inputs, judgments, assumptions, and methods used in measurement are required to be disclosed. The amendments in this ASU may be early adopted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not yet been issued, including interim financial statements. We do not currently expect to early adopt this standard. We have identified specific areas that will be impacted by the new guidance and are in the process of assessing the accounting, reporting and/or process changes that will be required to comply as well as the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation - VIEs	Principles of Consolidation - VIEs We are involved in certain entities that are considered variable interest entities ("VIEs") as defined under U.S. GAAP. Our involvement with VIEs is primarily to invest in assets that allow us to gain exposure to a broadly diversified portfolio of asset classes. A VIE is an entity that does not have sufficient equity to finance its own activities without additional financial support or where investors lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We assess our relationships to determine if we have the ability to direct the activities, or otherwise exert control, to evaluate if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If we determine we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE in our unaudited consolidated financial statements. See Note E Investments for additional information on our investments in VIEs.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition - Life Insurance and Annuity Premiums Our insurance premiums for traditional life insurance products are recognized as revenue when due from the contractholder, net of premiums ceded under reinsurance, and are included within Escrow, title-related, and other fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Our traditional life insurance products include those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and consist primarily of term life insurance and certain annuities with life contingencies. Premium collections for FIA and fixed rate annuities, IUL policies and immediate annuities without life contingency are reported as an increase to deposit liabilities (i.e., contractholder funds) instead of as revenues. Similarly, cash payments to policyholders are reported as decreases in the liability for contractholder funds and not as expenses. Sources of revenues for products accounted for as deposit liabilities are net investment income, surrender and other charges deducted from contractholder funds, and net realized gains (losses) on investments. Surrender charges are earned when a policyholder withdraws funds from the contract early or cancels the contract. Revenue Recognition - Interest and investment income Dividends and interest income are recorded in Interest and investment income and recognized when earned. Income or losses upon call or prepayment of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are recognized in Interest and investment income. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on investments in fixed maturity securities are reflected in Interest and investment income over the contractual terms of the investments, and for callable investments at a premium, based on the earliest call date of the investments, in a manner that produces a constant effective yield. For mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, included in the fixed maturity available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities portfolios, we recognize income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated cash flows and the estimated economic life of the securities. When actual prepayments differ significantly from originally anticipated prepayments, the effective yield is generally recalculated prospectively to reflect actual payments to date plus anticipated future payments. Any adjustments resulting from changes in effective yield are reflected in Interest and investment income. For details on interest and investment income recognition on investments in unconsolidated affiliates and mortgage loans, refer to the respective subsections below. Interest and investment income is presented net of earned investment management fees. Insurance and Investment Product Fees and Other Product fee revenue from indexed universal life ("IUL") products and annuities is comprised of policy and contract fees charged for the cost of insurance, policy administration and rider fees. Fees are assessed on a monthly basis and recognized as revenue when earned. Product fee revenue also includes surrender charges which are collected and recognized as revenue when the policy is surrendered. Some of the product fee revenue is not level by policy year. The unearned portion of the revenues are deferred and brought into income relative to the gross profits of the business. Insurance and investment product fees and other are included within Escrow, title-related, and other fees in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, and unearned revenue liability is included within Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Benefits and Other Changes in Policy Reserves Benefit expenses for FIA, fixed rate annuities and IUL policies include index credits and interest credited to contractholder account balances and benefit claims in excess of contract account balances, net of reinsurance recoveries, are charged to expense in the period that they are earned by the policyholder based on their selected strategy. Interest crediting rates associated with funds invested in the general account of our insurance subsidiaries range from 0.5% to 6.0% for deferred annuities and FIAs combined, and 3.0% to 4.8% for IULs. Other changes in policy reserves include the change in the fair value of the FIA embedded derivative and the change in the reserve for secondary guarantee benefit payments. Other changes in policy reserves also include the change in reserves for life insurance products. For traditional life and immediate annuities, policy benefit claims are charged to expense in the period that the claims are incurred, net of reinsurance recoveries. Our Direct title insurance premiums are recognized as revenue at the time of closing of the underlying transaction as the earnings process is then considered complete. Regulation of title insurance rates varies by state. Premiums are charged to customers based on rates predetermined in coordination with each states' respective Department of Insurance. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing of the underlying real estate transaction. Premium revenues from agency title operations are recognized when the underlying title order and transaction closing, if applicable, are complete.Revenues from our home warranty business are generated from contracts with customers to provide warranty for major home appliances. Substantially all of our home warranty contracts are one year in length and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the contract.
Investment Securities	Investment Securities Our investments in fixed maturity securities have been designated as AFS and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of associated intangible asset and unearned revenue ("UREV") “shadow adjustments” (discussed in Note M Intangibles), SOP 03-1 reserves and deferred income taxes. Our investments in equity securities and preferred securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Mortgage Loans Our investment in mortgage loans consists of commercial and residential mortgage loans on real estate, which are reported at amortized cost, less allowance for losses. For details on our policy around allowance for expected credit loss on mortgage loans, refer to Note E Investments. Commercial mortgage loans are continuously monitored by reviewing appraisals, operating statements, rent revenues, annual inspection reports, loan specific credit quality, property characteristics, market trends and other factors. Commercial mortgage loans are rated for the purpose of quantifying the level of risk. Loans are placed on a watch list when the debt service coverage ("DSC") ratio falls below and the loan-to-value ("LTV") ratios exceeds certain thresholds. Loans on the watchlist are closely monitored for collateral deficiency or other credit events that may lead to a potential loss of principal or interest. We define delinquent mortgage loans as 30 days past due, consistent with industry practice. Residential mortgage loans have a primary credit quality indicator of either a performing or nonperforming loan. We define nonperforming residential mortgage loans as those that are 90 or more days past due and/or in nonaccrual status which is assessed monthly. Generally, nonperforming residential mortgage loans have a higher risk of experiencing a credit loss. Interest on loans is recognized on an accrual basis at the applicable interest rate on the principal amount outstanding. Loan origination fees and direct costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are amortized as level yield adjustments over the respective loan terms. Unamortized net fees or costs are recognized upon early repayment of the loans. Loan commitment fees are deferred and amortized on an effective yield basis over the term of the loan.
Derivatives Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments We hedge certain portions of our exposure to product related equity market risk by entering into derivative transactions (primarily call options). All such derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The changes in fair value are reported within Recognized gains and losses, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We purchase financial instruments and issue products that may contain embedded derivative instruments. If it is determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract, and a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host contract for measurement purposes. The embedded derivative is carried at fair value, which is determined through a combination of market observable inputs such as market value of option and interest swap rates and unobservable inputs such as the mortality multiplier, surrender and withdrawal rates and non-performance spread. The changes in fair value are reported within Benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. See a description of the fair value methodology used in Note D Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates	Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We account for our investments in unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method and use net asset value ("NAV") as a practical expedient to determine the carrying value. Income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates is included within Interest and investment income in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Recognition of income is delayed due to the availability of the related financial statements, which are obtained from the affiliate’s general partner generally on a one to three-month delay. Management meets quarterly with the general partner to determine whether any credit or other market events have occurred since prior quarter financial statements to ensure any material events are properly included in current quarter valuation and investment income. In addition, the impact of audit adjustments related to completion of calendar-year financial statement audits of the unconsolidated affiliates are typically received during the second quarter of each calendar year. Accordingly, our investment income from our investments in unconsolidated affiliates for any calendar-year period may not include the complete impact of the change in the underlying net assets for the unconsolidated affiliate for that calendar-year period.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets Our intangible assets include an intangible asset reflecting the value of insurance and reinsurance contracts acquired (hereafter referred to as the value of business acquired (“VOBA”)), the value of distribution network acquired ("VODA"), deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducements (“DSI”), internally developed software, trademarks and state licenses. VOBA is an intangible asset that reflects the amount recorded as insurance contract liabilities less the estimated fair value of in-force contracts in a life insurance company acquisition. It represents the portion of the purchase price allocated to the value of the rights to receive future cash flows from the business in force at the acquisition date. VODA is an intangible asset that represents the value of an acquired distribution network. DAC consists principally of commissions that are related directly to the successful sale of new or renewal insurance contracts, which may be deferred to the extent recoverable. Indirect or unsuccessful acquisition costs, maintenance, product development and overhead expenses are charged to expense as incurred. DSI represents up front bonus credits and vesting bonuses to policyholder account values which may be deferred to the extent recoverable. The methodology for determining the amortization of DAC, DSI and VOBA varies by product type. For all insurance contracts accounted for under long-duration contract deposit accounting, amortization is based on assumptions consistent with those used in the development of the underlying contract liabilities adjusted for emerging experience and expected trends. For all of the insurance intangibles (DAC, DSI and VOBA), the balances are generally amortized over the lives of the policies in relation to the expected emergence of estimated gross profits (“EGPs”) from investment income, surrender charges and other product fees, less policy benefits, maintenance expenses, mortality net of reinsurance ceded, and expense margins. Recognized gains (losses) on investments, changes in fair value of the funds withheld coinsurance embedded derivative, and change in fair value of the embedded derivative on our FIA and IUL products are included in actual gross profits in the period realized as described further below. Internally developed software and trade name intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their deemed useful lives while VODA is amortized using the sum of years digits method. Amortization is reported within Depreciation and amortization in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Changes in assumptions, including our earned rate (i.e., long term assumptions of the Company’s expected earnings on related investments), budgeted option costs (i.e., the expected cost to purchase call options in future periods to fund the equity indexed linked feature) and surrender rates can have a significant impact on VOBA, DAC and DSI balances and amortization rates. Due to the relative size and sensitivity to minor changes in underlying assumptions of those intangible balances, we perform quarterly and annual analysis of the VOBA, DAC and DSI balances for recoverability to ensure that the unamortized portion does not exceed the expected recoverable amounts. At each evaluation date, actual historical gross profits are reflected with the impact on the intangibles reported as “unlocking” as a component of amortization expense, and estimated future gross profits and related assumptions are evaluated for continued reasonableness. Any adjustment in estimated future gross profits requires that the amortization rate be revised (“unlocking”) retroactively to the date of the policy or contract issuance. The cumulative unlocking adjustment is recognized as a component of current period amortization. Amortization expense of VOBA, DAC and DSI reflects an assumption for an expected level of credit-related investment losses. When actual credit-related investment losses are realized, we perform a retrospective unlocking of amortization for those intangibles as actual margins vary from expected margins. This unlocking is reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. For investment-type products, the VOBA, DAC and DSI assets are adjusted for the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investments as if these gains (losses) had been realized, with corresponding credits or charges included in AOCI ("shadow adjustments").
Reinsurance	ReinsuranceOur insurance subsidiaries enter into reinsurance agreements with other companies in the normal course of business. Reinsurance agreements are reported on a gross basis in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as an asset for amounts recoverable from reinsurers or as a component of other liabilities for amounts, such as premiums, owed to the reinsurers. Premiums and benefits are reported net of insurance ceded. The effects of certain reinsurance agreements are not accounted for as reinsurance as they do not satisfy the risk transfer requirements for GAAP. The assets and liabilities of certain reinsurance contracts are presented on a net basis in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively, when there is a right of offset explicit in the reinsurance agreement and deposit accounting is being applied.
Contractholder Funds	Contractholder Funds The liabilities for contractholder funds for deferred annuities and IUL policies consist of contract account balances that accrue to the benefit of the contractholders. The liabilities for FIA policies consist of the value of the host contract plus the fair value of the indexed crediting feature of the policy, which is accounted for as an embedded derivative. The embedded derivative is carried at fair value in Contractholder funds in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in fair value reported in Benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, and changes in the related SOP 03-1 reserves resulting from unrealized gain/loss ("shadow adjustments") reported within Accumulated other comprehensive earnings in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See a description of the fair value methodology used in Note D Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Liabilities for immediate annuities with life contingencies are recorded at the present value of future benefits. Liabilities for the secondary guarantees on IUL-type products or Investment-type contracts are calculated by multiplying the benefit ratio by the cumulative assessments recorded from contract inception through the balance sheet date less the cumulative secondary guarantee benefit payments plus interest. The benefit ratio is the ratio of the present value of future secondary guarantees to the present value of the assessments used to provide the secondary guarantees using the same assumptions as we use for our intangible assets. If experience or assumption changes result in a new benefit ratio, the reserves are adjusted to reflect the changes in a manner similar to the unlocking of DAC, DSI and VOBA. The accounting for secondary guarantee benefits impact EGPs used to calculate amortization of DAC, DSI and VOBA. The SOP 03-1 reserve is adjusted for the impact of unrealized gains (losses) on AFS investments as if these gains (losses) had been realized, with corresponding credits or charges included in AOCI ("shadow adjustments"). Future Policy Benefits The liabilities for future policy benefits and claim reserves for traditional life policies and life contingent pay-out annuity policies are computed using assumptions for investment yields, mortality and withdrawals based on generally accepted actuarial methods and assumptions at the time of contract issue. Investment yield assumption for traditional direct life reserves for all contracts is 5.7%. The investment yield assumption for life contingent pay-out annuities is 2.5%. Policies are terminated through surrenders and maturities, where surrenders represent the voluntary terminations of policies by policyholders and maturities are determined by policy contract terms. Surrender assumptions are based upon cedant experience adjusted for expected future conditions. Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Agreements Contractholder funds include funds related to funding agreements that have been issued by the Company to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) as a funding medium for single premium funding agreements. The funding agreements (i.e., immediate annuity contracts without life contingencies) provide a guaranteed stream of payments or provide for a bullet payment with renewal provisions. Single premiums were received at the initiation of the funding agreements and were in the form of advances from the FHLB. Payments under the funding agreements extend through 2022. The reserves for the funding agreements are included in Contractholder funds in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In accordance with the agreements, the investments supporting the funding agreement liabilities are pledged as collateral to secure the FHLB funding agreement liabilities and are not available to settle our general obligations.
Revenue Recognition, Other	Interest and investment income consists primarily of interest payments received on fixed maturity security holdings and dividends received on equity and preferred security holdings. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, primarily related to revenue from our home warranty business, and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
Revenue Recognition, Services, Real Estate Transactions	Escrow fees and Other title-related fees and income in our Title segment are closely related to Direct title insurance premiums and are primarily associated with managing the closing of real estate transactions including the processing of funds on behalf of the transaction participants, gathering and recording the required closing documents, providing notary and home inspection services, and other real estate or title-related activities. Revenue is primarily recognized upon closing of the underlying real estate transaction or completion of services. Cash associated with such revenue is typically collected at closing. Revenues from ServiceLink, excluding its title premiums, escrow fees and loan subservicing fees primarily include revenues from real estate appraisal services and foreclosure processing and facilitation services. Revenues from real estate appraisal services are recognized when all appraisal work is complete, a final report is issued to the client and the client is billed. Revenues from foreclosure processing and facilitation services are primarily recognized upon completion of the services and when billing to the client is complete. Life insurance premiums in our F&G segment reflect premiums for traditional life insurance products and life-contingent immediate annuity products which are recognized as revenue when due from the policyholder. We have ceded the majority of our traditional life business to unaffiliated third party reinsurers. While the base contract has been reinsured, we continue to retain the return of premium rider. Insurance and investment product fees and other consist primarily of the cost of insurance on IUL policies, unearned revenue ("UREV") on IUL policies, policy rider fees primarily on FIA policies and surrender charges assessed against policy withdrawals in excess of the policyholder's allowable penalty-free amounts. Real estate technology revenues are primarily comprised of subscription fees for use of software provided to real estate professionals. Subscriptions are only offered on a month-by-month basis and fees are billed monthly. Revenue is recognized in the month services are provided. Real estate brokerage revenues are primarily comprised of commission revenues earned in association with the facilitation of real estate transactions and are recognized upon closing of the sale of the underlying real estate transaction. Loan subservicing revenues are generated by certain subsidiaries of ServiceLink and are associated with the servicing of mortgage loans on behalf of its customers. Revenue is recognized when the underlying work is performed and billed. Loan subservicing revenues are subject to the recognition requirements of ASC Topic 860.
