Forward - Looking Statements and Non - GAAP Measures The information in this document contains forward - looking statements about future events and circumstances and their effects upo n revenues, expenses and business opportunities. Generally speaking, any statement in this document not based upon historical fact is a forward - looking statement. Forward - lookin g statements can also be identified by the use of forward - looking or conditional words, such as “could,” “should,” “can,” “continue,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “look,” “m ay,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “remain,” “confident” and “commit” or similar expressions. In particular, statements regarding plans, strategies, prospects, tar gets and expectations regarding the business and industry are forward - looking statements. They reflect expectations, are not guarantees of performance and speak only as of the dates the statements are made. We caution investors that these forward - looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ mate rially from those projected, expressed, or implied. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward - looking statements include those reflecte d in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors and Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10 - K, as Part II, Item 7 was r ecast to reflect the adoption of LDTI in our Current Report on Form 8 - K filed May 10, 2023 and elsewhere in Jackson Financial Inc.’s filings filed with the U.S. Securities and Excha nge Commission.

Net Hedge Gain 1 : $1,097 million Non - Operating Items • 2Q23 net hedge gain of $1,097 million ― Higher equity markets drove freestanding derivative losses as well as a substantial gain in market risk benefits (MRB) ― Higher interest rates generated a freestanding derivative loss but a larger corresponding gain in MRB • Our hedging program seeks to balance three risk management objectives: ― Protecting against the economic impact of adverse market conditions ― Protecting statutory capital ― Stabilizing statutory distributable earnings throughout market cycles • Our core dynamic hedging program seeks to offset changes in the economic liability associated with variable and registered index - linked annuity guaranteed benefits due to market movements, while our macro hedging program seeks to protect statutory capital under a range of stress scenarios • We do not directly use hedging to offset the movement in our U.S. GAAP liabilities as market conditions change from period to period, which may result in U.S. GAAP net income volatility Highlights Pretax income attributable to Jackson Financial (U.S. GAAP) Pretax adjusted operating earnings (Non - GAAP) 2 Fees attributable to guarantee benefit reserves Net movement in freestanding derivatives Net reserve and embedded derivative movements 3 Market risk benefits gain, net Net realized investment losses on funds withheld assets Net investment income on funds withheld assets Other 1,462 1) Represents non - operating Total Guaranteed Benefits and Hedging Results. 2) See the Appendix for the Non - GAAP financial measu res, definitions, and reconciliations to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. 3) Net reserve and embedded derivative movements includes guaranteed benefit claims.

Delivering On Our Capital Management Commitments Committed to achieving 2023 capital return target of $450 - $550 million with $224 million returned in the first half of 2023 • Returned $100 million to common shareholders in 2Q through $47 million of share repurchases and $53 million in dividends • $439 million remaining on share repurchase authorization as of the end of the second quarter • Declared 3Q23 dividend of $0.62 per share, payable on September 14, 2023 Operating company estimated RBC ratio up from 1Q23 and within our 425% - 500% target range • Statutory Total Adjusted Capital (TAC) ended 2Q23 at $3.8 billion, compared to $4.7 billion at 1Q23 primarily due to hedging los ses as reserves were limited by the cash surrender minimum, as well as related tax impacts including deferred tax asset (DTA) admissibility limits • RBC impact from the change in TAC was more than offset by a decline in estimated company action level (CAL) required capital, la rgely due to the impact of second quarter equity market appreciation and rising interest rates, as well as periodic rebalancing of the portfol io mix resulting in the sale of certain limited partnership investments from Jackson National Life Insurance Company to Jackson Financial Inc. (JFI) with the expectation that JFI will sell these investments in future quarters Holding company assets (excluding equity in subsidiaries) totaled nearly $1.5 billion, including cash and liquid assets of ne arl y $1.0 billion • Holding company assets include proceeds from our preferred equity issuance in 1Q23, which helped to effectively prefund the J ack son Financial Inc. $600 million senior debt maturity in November of 2023 12

Non - GAAP Financial Measures In addition to presenting our results of operations and financial condition in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use and report, sel ected non - GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the use of these non - GAAP financial measures, together with relevant U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a better understanding of our results of op era tions, financial condition and the underlying performance drivers of our business. These non - GAAP financial measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are pres ent ed in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the U.S. GAAP financial measures. Other companies may use similarly titled non - GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from th e way we calculate such measures. Consequently, our non - GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. These non - GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted Operating Earnings Adjusted Operating Earnings is an after - tax non - GAAP financial measure, which we believe should be used to evaluate our financia l performance on a consolidated basis by excluding certain items that may be highly variable from period to period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non - recurring in nature, as well as certa in other revenues and expenses that we do not view as driving our underlying performance. Adjusted Operating Earnings should not be used as a substitute for net income as calculated in accordance with U .S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to net income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Adjusted Operating Earnings equals our Net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders (which ex clu des income attributable to non - controlling interest and dividends on preferred stock) adjusted to eliminate the impact of the following items: 1) Net Hedging Results: Comprised of: ( i ) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits; (ii) changes in the fair value of freestanding derivatives used to manage the risk ass ociated with market risk benefits and other guaranteed benefit features; (iii) the movements in reserves, market risk benefits, guaranteed benefit features accounted for as embedded derivative instruments, and related claims and benefit payments; (iv) amortization of the balance of unamortized deferred acquisition costs at the date of transition to current accounting guidanc e o n January 1, 2021 associated with items excluded from adjusted operating earnings prior to transition to LDTI; and (v) the impact on the valuation of Net Hedging Results arising from changes in underlying ac tua rial assumptions. These items are excluded from adjusted operating earnings as they may vary significantly from period to period due to near - term market conditions and therefore are not directly comparable or ref lective of the underlying performance of our business. We believe this approach appropriately removes the impact to both revenue and related expenses associated with Net Hedging Results and provides invest ors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying performance. 2) Net Realized Investment Gains and Losses: Comprised of: ( i ) realized investment gains and losses associated with the periodic sales or disposals of securities, excluding those held wi thi n our trading portfolio; and (ii) impairments of securities, after adjustment for the non - credit component of the impairment charges. These items are exclude d from pretax adjusted operating earnings as they may vary significantly from period to period due to near - term market conditions and therefore are not directly comparable or reflective of the underlying performan ce of our business. We believe this approach provides investors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying performance. 3) Change in Value of Funds Withheld Embedded Derivative and Net investment income on funds withheld assets: Comprised of ( i ) the change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; and (ii) net investment income on funds withheld assets related to funds withheld reinsurance transactions. These items are excluded from pre tax adjusted operating earnings as they are not reflective of the underlying performance of our business. We believe this approach provides investors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying pe rfo rmance. 4) Other items: Comprised of: ( i ) the impact of investments that are consolidated in our financial statements due to U.S. GAAP accounting requirements, such as our investments in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), but for which the consolidation effects are not consistent with our economic interest or exposure to those entities, and (ii) one - time or other non - recurring items, such as costs relating to our separation from Prudential. These items are excluded from adjusted operating earnings as they are not reflective of the underlying perfo rma nce of our business. We believe this approach provides investors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying performance. Operating income taxes are calculated using the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% while taking into account any items recognized d iff erently in our financial statements and federal income tax returns, including the dividends received deduction and other tax credits. For interim reporting periods, the Company uses an es timated annual effective tax rate ("ETR") in computing its tax provision including consideration of discrete items. 26

 

 

Non - GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders excludes Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ( Los s) ("AOCI") attributable to Jackson Financial Inc ("JFI"). AOCI attributable to JFI excludes AOCI arising from investments held within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction. We exclude AOCI attributable to JFI from Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders because our invested assets are generally invested to closely match the duration of our liabilities, which are l ong er duration in nature, and therefore we believe period - to - period fair market value fluctuations in AOCI to be inconsistent with this objective. We believe excluding AOCI attributable to JFI is more useful to inv estors in analyzing trends in our business. Adjusted Operating Return on Equity Attributable to Common Shareholders We use Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders to manage our business and evaluate our financial performan ce. Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders excludes items that vary from period - to - period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non - recurring in nature, as such items m ay distort the underlying performance of our business. We calculate Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders by dividing our Adjusted Operating Earnings by average Adjusted Book Value Attributab le to Common Shareholders. Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders should no t be used as substitutes for total shareholders’ equity and ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders as calculated using annualized net income and average equity in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we be lie ve the adjustments to equity and earnings are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Notable Items Notable items reflect the impact on our results of certain items or events that may or may not have been anticipated and resu lte d in volatility in the company's earnings expectations. The presentation of notable items is intended to help investors better understand our results for the period and to evaluate and forecast those results. 27

Glossary Assets Under Management (AUM) – Investment assets that are managed by one of our subsidiaries and includes: ( i ) the assets in our investment portfolio managed by PPM America, Inc. (“PPM”), which excludes assets held in funds withheld accounts for reinsurance transactions, (ii) third - party assets managed by PPM, including those for our former parent (P rudential) and its affiliates or third parties, and (iii) the separate account assets of our Retail Annuities segment that Jackson National Asset Management LLC (“JNAM”) manages and administers. Athene Reinsurance Transaction – The funds withheld coinsurance agreement with Athene on June 18, 2020, effective June 1, 2020, to reinsure a 100% quota share of a block of our in - force fixed and fixed index annuity liabilities in exchange for approximately $1.2 billion in ceding commissions. Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) - Represents the incremental costs related directly to the successful acquisition of new, and certain renewal, insurance polici e s and annuity contracts, which are deferred on the balance sheet as an asset. Derivative Instruments - Jackson Financial Inc.'s (JFI) business model includes the acceptance, monitoring and mitigation of risk. Specifically, JFI c onsiders, among other factors, exposures to interest rate and equity market movements, foreign exchange rates and other asset or liability prices. JFI uses derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce these risk s i n accordance with established policies and goals. JFI's derivative holdings, while effective in managing defined risks, are not structured to meet accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments. As a result, freestanding de rivatives are carried at fair value with changes each period recorded in net gains or losses on derivatives and investments. Earnings per Share (EPS) - Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders by the weighted - a verage number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders, by the weighted - average numbe r of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, plus shares representing the dilutive effect of share - based awards. Fixed Annuity (FA) - An annuity that guarantees a set annual rate of return with interest at rates we determine, subject to specified minimums. C r edited interest rates are guaranteed not to change for certain limited periods of time. Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) - An annuity with an ability to share in the upside from certain financial markets such as equity indices and provides downside protection. Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit (GMAB) – An add - on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) which entitles an owner to a minimum payment, typically in lump - sum, after a set period of time, typically referred to as the accumulation period. The minimum payment is based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the un der lying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) - An add - on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) that guarantees an owner's beneficiaries are entitled t o a minimum payment based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the underlying account value, upon the death of the owner. Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit (GMIB) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to annuitize the policy and receive a minimum payment stream based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the payment stream resulting from current annuitization of the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw a maximum amount of their benefit base each year, for which cumulative payments to the owner could be greater than the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit for Life (GMWB for Life) - An add - on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw the guaranteed annual withdrawal a mount each year, for the duration of the policyholder's life, regardless of account performance. LDTI – Accounting Standards Update 2018 - 12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long - Duration Contracts”, effective January 1, 2023, with a transition date of January 1, 2021. Net Amount at Risk (NAR) – The greater of Death Benefit NAR (DBNAR) and Living Benefit NAR (LBNAR), as applicable, where DBNAR is the GMDB benefit base i n excess of the account value, and the LBNAR is the actuarial present value of guaranteed living benefits in excess of the account value. 30

 

 

Glossary Net Flows - The net change in customer account balances during a period, including gross premiums, surrenders, withdrawals and benefits. Net flows exclude investment performance, interest credited to customer accounts and policy charges. Registered Index - Linked Annuity (RILA) – A registered index - linked annuity, which offers market index - linked investment options, subject to a cap, and offers a variety of guarantees designed to modify or limit losses. Return of Premium (ROP) Death Benefit - This death benefit pays the greater of the account value at the time of a claim following the owner's death or the total cont r ibutions to the contract (subject to adjustment for withdrawals). The charge for this benefit is usually included in the Mortality and Expense fee that is deducted daily from the net assets in ea ch variable investment option. We also refer to this death benefit as the Return of Principal death benefit. Risk Based Capital (RBC) – Statutory minimum level of capital that is required by regulators for an insurer to support its operations. Segment - Retail Annuities JFI's Retail Annuities segment offers a variety of retirement income and savings products through its diverse suite of produc ts, consisting primarily of variable annuities, fixed index annuities, fixed annuities, payout annuities and registered index - linked annuities (“RILA”). These products are distributed through various wirehouses, insurance brokers and in dependent broker - dealers, as well as through banks and financial institutions, primarily to high - net - worth investors and the mass and affluent markets. The financial results of the variable annuity business within the Company’s Retail Annuities segment are largely dependent on th e performance of the contract holder account value, which impacts both the level of fees collected and the benefits paid to the contract holder. The financial results of the Company’s fixed annuities, including the fixed option on its variable annuities, RILA and fixed index annuities, are largely dependent on the Company's ability to earn a spread between earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited to contract holders. Segment - Institutional Products JFI's Institutional Products consist of traditional guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”), funding agreements (including a gre ements issued in conjunction with JFI's participation in the U.S. Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) program) and Medium - Term Note funding agreements. JFI's GIC products are marketed to defined contribution pension and profit - sharing ret irement plans. Funding agreements are marketed to institutional investors, including corporate cash accounts and securities lending funds, as well as money market funds, and are issued to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indiana pol is in connection with its program. The financial results of JFI's Institutional Products business are primarily dependent on JFI's ability to earn a spread betw een earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited on GICs and funding agreements. Segment - Closed Life and Annuity Blocks JFI’s Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is primarily composed of blocks of business that have been acquired since 2004. Th e segment includes various protection products, primarily whole life, universal life, variable universal life, and term life insurance products as well as fixed, fixed index, and payout annuities. The Closed Life and Annuity Blocks seg men t also includes a block of group payout annuities that we assumed from John Hancock Life Insurance Company (USA) and John Hancock Life Insurance Company of New York through reinsurance transactions in 2018 and 2019, respecti vel y. The Company historically offered traditional and interest - sensitive life insurance products but discontinued new sales of life insurance products in 2012, as we believe opportunistically acquiring mature blocks of life in sur ance policies is a more efficient means of diversifying our in - force business than selling new life insurance products. The profitability of JFI's Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is largely driven by its historical ability to appropriatel y p rice its products and purchase appropriately priced blocks of business, as realized through underwriting, expense and net gains (losses) on derivatives and investments, and the ability to earn an assumed rate of return on the assets suppor tin g that business. Variable Annuity (VA) - An annuity that offers tax - deferred investment into a range of asset classes and a variable return, which offers insurance fea tures related to potential future income payments. 31
