In the following segment financial data, “operating revenue” excludes net realized investment gains and losses. “Operating income” or
“operating loss excludes net realized investment gains and losses, income tax, and results of discontinued operations. These are considered
non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAPnancial measures of “operating revenue and “operating income or “operating loss differ
from revenue and income from continuing operations before income tax as presented in our consolidated statements of income prepared
in accordance with GAAP due to the exclusion of before tax realized investment gains and losses. We measure segment performance for
purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,
excluding realized investment gains and losses because we believe that this performance measure is a better indicator of the ongoing
businesses and the underlying trends in the businesses. Our investment focus is on investment income to support our insurance liabilities
as opposed to the generation of realized investment gains and losses, and a long-term focus is necessary to maintain profitability over the
life of the business. Realized investment gains and losses depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding
the underlying business of our segments. However, income or loss excluding realized investment gains and losses does not replace net
income or net loss as a measure of overall protability. We may experience realized investment losses, which will affect future earnings
levels since our underlying business is long-term in nature and we need to earn the assumed interest rates in our liabilities.
Premium income by major line of business within each of our segments is presented as follows:
