Actual results could differ from those estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

(2) Accounting Pronouncements

Recently AdoptedChanges

On January 1, 2011,2012, we adopted new accounting guidance requiring presentation of the components of net income (loss), the components of other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and total comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income (loss) or in two separate but consecutive statements. We chose to present two separate but consecutive statements and adopted this new guidance retrospectively. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment relating to this new guidance for presentation of the reclassification of items out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income that removed this requirement until further guidance is issued. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have any impact on our consolidated financial results.

On January 1, 2012, we adopted new accounting guidance related to goodwill impairment testing when a reporting unit’s carryingfair value is zero or negative.measurements. This guidance did not impact our consolidated financial statements upon adoption, as all of our reporting units with goodwill balances have positive carrying values.

On January 1, 2011, we adopted new accounting guidance related to how investments held through separate accounts affect an insurer’s consolidation analysis of those investments.clarified existing fair value measurement requirements and changed certain fair value measurement principles and disclosure requirements. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2011,2012, we adopted new accounting guidance related to additional disclosures about purchases, sales, issuancesrepurchase agreements and settlements inother agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The new guidance removed the rollforward of Level 3 fair value measurements.requirement to consider a transferor’s ability to fulfill its contractual rights from the criteria used to determine effective control and was effective for us prospectively for any transactions occurring on or after January 1, 2012. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Not Yet Adopted

In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings. This new accounting guidance and related disclosures will be effective for us on JulyOn January 1, 2011. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2010, the FASB issued2012, we adopted new accounting guidance related to accounting for costs associated with acquiring or renewing insurance contracts. Acquisition costs include costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of our insurance policies and investment contracts, which are deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the related insurance policies. These costs include commissions in excess of ultimate renewal commissions and for contracts and policies issued some support costs, such as underwriting, medical inspection and issuance expenses. Deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) are subsequently amortized to expense over the lives of the underlying contracts, in relation to the anticipated recognition of premiums or gross profits. We adopted this new guidance retrospectively, which reduced retained earnings and stockholders’ equity by $1.3 billion as of January 1, 2011, and reduced net income (loss) by $63 million, $86 million and $12 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. This new accounting guidance will be effectiveresults in lower amortization and fewer deferred costs, specifically related to underwriting, inspection and processing for us oncontracts that are not issued, as well as marketing and customer solicitation.

Effective January 1, 2012. When adopted,2012, we expect to defer fewer costs. The new guidance is effective prospectively with retrospective adoption allowed. We have not yet determinedchanged our treatment of the method nor impact this accounting guidance will have onliability for future policy benefits for our consolidated financial statements.level premium term life insurance products when the liability for a policy falls below zero. Previously, the total liability for future policy benefits included negative reserves calculated at an individual policy level. Through

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2010, we issued level premium term life insurance policies whose premiums are contractually determined to be level through a period of time and then increase thereafter. Our previous accounting policy followed the accounting for traditional, long-duration insurance contracts where the reserves are calculated as the present value of expected benefit payments minus the present value of net premiums based on assumptions determined on the policy issuance date including mortality, interest, and lapse rates. This accounting has the effect of causing profits to emerge as a level percentage of premiums, subject to differences in assumed versus actual experience which flow through income as they occur, and for products with an increasing premium stream, such as the level premium term life insurance product, may result in negative reserves for a given policy.

More recent insurance-specific accounting guidance reflects a different accounting philosophy, emphasizing the balance sheet over the income statement, or matching, focus which was the philosophy in place when the traditional, long-duration insurance contract guidance was issued (the accounting model for traditional, long-duration insurance contracts draws upon the principles of matching and conservatism originating in the 1970’s, and does not specifically address negative reserves). More recent accounting models for long-duration contracts specifically prohibit negative reserves, e.g., non-traditional contracts with annuitization benefits and certain participating contracts. These recent accounting models do not impact the reserving for our level premium term life insurance products.

We believe that industry accounting practices for level premium term life insurance product reserving is mixed with some companies “flooring” reserves at zero and others applying our previous accounting policy described above. In 2010, we stopped issuing new level premium term life insurance policies. Thus, as the level premium term policies reach the end of their level premium term periods, the portion of policies with negative reserves in relation to the reserve for all level premium term life insurance products will continue to increase. Our new method of accounting floors the liability for future policy benefits on each level premium term life insurance policy at zero. We believe that flooring reserves at zero is preferable in our circumstances as this alternative accounting policy will not allow negative reserves to accumulate on the balance sheet for this closed block of insurance policies. In implementing this change in accounting, no changes were made to the assumptions that were locked-in at policy inception. We implemented this accounting change retrospectively, which reduced retained earnings and stockholders’ equity by $110 million as of January 1, 2011, and reduced net income (loss) by $10 million, $4 million and $32 million for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The new guidance requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. These new disclosure requirements will be effective for us on January 1, 2013 and are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We generally intend to hold securities in unrealized loss positions until they recover. However, from time to time, our intent on an individual security may change, based upon market or other unforeseen developments. In such instances, we sell securities in the ordinary course of managing our portfolio to meet diversification, credit quality, yield and liquidity requirements. If a loss is recognized from a sale subsequent to a balance sheet date due to these unexpected developments, the loss is recognized in the period in which we determined that we have the intent to sell the securities or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the securities prior to recovery. The aggregate fair value of securities sold at a loss during the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and 2010 was $397$357 million and $558$397 million, respectively, which was approximately 90% and 94%, respectively, of book value for both periods.value.

The following represents the activity for credit losses recognized in net income on debt securities where an other-than-temporary impairment was identified and a portion of other-than-temporary impairments was included in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”)OCI as of orand for the three months ended March 31:

The following table presents the grossless than 20% below cost. These unrealized losses were primarily attributable to credit spreads that have widened since acquisition for corporate securities across various industry sectors, including finance and number of investmentinsurance as well as consumer–non-cyclical. For securities aggregated by investment type and length of time that individual investment securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position,for less than 12 months, the average fair value percentage below cost was approximately 3% as of March 31, 2011:2012.

Fixed Maturity Securities In A Continuous Unrealized Loss Position For 12 Months Or More

Of the $255 million of unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities in a continuous unrealized loss for 12 months or more that were less than 20% below cost, the weighted-average rating was “BBB” and approximately 75% of the unrealized losses were related to investment grade securities as of March 31, 2012. These unrealized losses were attributable to the widening of credit spreads for these securities since acquisition, primarily associated with corporate securities in the finance and insurance sector as well as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The average fair value percentage below cost for these securities was approximately 8% as of March 31, 2012. See below for additional discussion related to fixed maturity securities that have been in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more with a fair value that was more than 20% below cost.

While certain securities included in the preceding tables were considered other-than-temporarily impaired,loss position, we expect to recover the new amortized cost based on our estimate of cash flows to be collected. We do not intend to sell and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell these securities prior to recovering our amortized cost. See below for further discussion of gross unrealized losses by asset class.

DespiteTax-Exempt Securities

As indicated in the considerabletable above, $46 million of gross unrealized losses were related to tax-exempt securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months and were more than 20% below cost. The unrealized losses for tax-exempt securities represent municipal bonds that were diversified by state as well as municipality or political subdivision within those states. Of these tax-exempt securities, the average unrealized loss was approximately $4 million which represented an average of 28% below cost. The unrealized losses primarily related to widening of credit spreads on these securities since acquisition as a result of higher risk premiums being attributed to these securities from uncertainty in many political subdivisions related to special revenues supporting these obligations as well as certain securities having longer duration that may be viewed as less desirable in the current market place. Additionally, the fair value of certain of these securities has been negatively impacted as a result of having certain bond insurers associated with the security. In our analysis of impairment for these securities, we expect to recover our amortized cost from the cash flows of the underlying securities before any guarantee support. However, the existence of these guarantees may negatively impact the value of the debt security in certain instances. We performed an analysis of these securities and rigor employedthe underlying activities that are expected to support the cash flows and determined we expect to recover our amortized cost.

Of the total unrealized losses of $142 million for corporate fixed maturity securities presented in the preceding tables, $114 million, or 80%, of the unrealized losses related to issuers in the finance and insurance sector that were 26% below cost on average. Given the current market conditions, including current financial industry events and uncertainty around global economic conditions, the fair value of these debt securities has declined due to credit spreads that have widened since acquisition. In our structuredexamination of these securities, it is at least reasonably possiblewe considered all available evidence, including the issuers’ financial condition and current industry events to develop our conclusion on the amount and timing of the cash flows expected to be collected. Based on this evaluation, we determined that the underlying collateralunrealized losses on these debt securities represented temporary impairments as of March 31, 2012. Of the $114 million of unrealized losses related to the finance and insurance industry, $92 million related to financial hybrid securities on which a debt impairment model was employed. Most of our hybrid securities retained a credit rating of investment grade. The fair value of these investments will perform worse than current market expectations.

The extent and duration of the unrealized loss position on our structured securities is due to the ongoing concern and uncertainty about the housingresidential and commercial real estate market and unemployment, the fair value of these securities has declined due toresulting in credit spreads that have widened since acquisition. We examinedAdditionally, the fair value of certain structured securities has been significantly impacted from high risk premiums being incorporated into the valuation as a result of the amount of potential losses that may be absorbed by the security in the event of additional deterioration in the U.S. housing market.

While we considered the length of time each security had been in an unrealized loss position, the extent of the unrealized loss position and any significant declines in fair value subsequent to the balance sheet date in our evaluation of impairment for each of these individual securities, the primary factor in our evaluation of impairment is the expected performance for each of these securities. Our evaluation of expected performance is based on the historical performance of the associated securitization trust as well as the historical performance of the underlying collateral. Our examination of the historical performance of the securitization trust included consideration of the following factors for each class of securities issued by the trust: i) the payment history, including failure to make scheduled payments; ii) current payment status; iii) current and historical outstanding balances; iv) current levels of subordination and losses incurred to date; and v) characteristics of the underlying collateral. Our examination of the historical performance of the underlying collateral included: i) historical default rates, delinquency rates, voluntary and developedinvoluntary prepayments and severity of losses, including recent trends in this information; ii) current payment status; iii) loan to collateral value ratios, as applicable; iv) vintage; and v) other underlying characteristics such as current financial condition.

We used our assessment of the historical performance of both the securitization trust and the underlying collateral for each security, along with third-party sources, when available, to develop our best estimate of cash flows expected to be collected. These estimates reflect projections for future delinquencies, prepayments, defaults and losses for the assets that collateralize the securitization trust and are used to determine the expected cash flows for our security, based on the payment structure of the trust. Our projection of expected cash flows is primarily based on the expected performance of the underlying assets that collateralize the securitization trust and is not directly impacted by the rating of our security. While we consider the rating of the security as an indicator of the financial condition of the issuer, this factor does not have a significant impact on our expected cash flows for each security. In doing so,limited circumstances, our expected cash flows include expected payments from reliable financial guarantors where we identified certain securities wherebelieve the non-credit portionfinancial guarantor will have sufficient assets to pay claims under the financial guarantee when the cash flows from the securitization trust are not sufficient to make scheduled payments. We then discount the expected cash flows using the effective yield of other-than-temporary impairments was recorded in OCI. each security to determine the present value of expected cash flows.

Based on this evaluation, the present value of expected cash flows was greater than or equal to the amortized cost for each security. Accordingly, we determined that the unrealized losses on each of our mortgage-backed and asset-backedstructured securities represented temporary impairments as of March 31, 2011.

A portion of the unrealized losses in the finance and insurance sector included debt securities where an other-than-temporary impairment was recorded in OCI. Given the current market conditions, including current financial industry events and uncertainty around global economic conditions, the fair value of these debt securities has declined due to credit spreads that have widened since acquisition.

Despite the considerable analysis and rigor employed on our structured securities, we considered all available evidence, includingit is at least reasonably possible that the issuers’ financial condition andunderlying collateral of these investments will perform worse than current industrymarket expectations.

Based on this evaluation, we determined that the unrealized losses on these debtour holdings of structured securities represented temporary impairments asand future write-downs within our portfolio of March 31, 2011. A subset of the securities issued by banks and other financial institutions represent investments in financial hybrid securities on which a debt impairment model was employed. The majority of hybrid securities retain a credit rating of investment grade and were issued by foreign financial institutions. The fair value of the hybrid securities has been impacted by credit spreads that have widened since acquisition and reflect uncertainty surrounding the extent and duration of government involvement, potential capital restructuring of these institutions, and continued but diminishing risk that income payments may be deferred.structured securities.

As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, we had no commercial mortgage loans that were past due for more than 90 days and still accruing interest.

As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, we modified or extended 7 and 39 commercial mortgage loans, respectively, with a total carrying value of $48 million and $252 million, respectively. All of these modifications or extensions were based on current market interest rates, did not result in any forgiveness in the outstanding principal amount owed by the borrower and were not considered troubled debt restructurings. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2011, we modified or extended one commercial mortgage loan with a total carrying value of $3 million that was considered a troubled debt restructuring. As part of this troubled debt restructuring, we forgave default penalties and fees. This troubled debt restructuring did not result in any forgiveness in the outstanding principal amount owed by the borrower or a change to the original contractual interest rate.

In evaluating the credit quality of commercial mortgage loans, we assess the performance of the underlying loans using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Certain risks associated with commercial mortgagesmortgage loans can be evaluated by reviewing both the loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratio to understand both the probability of the borrower not being able to make the necessary loan payments as well as the ability to sell the underlying property for an amount that would enable us to recover our unpaid principal balance in the event of default by the borrower. The average loan-to-value ratio is based on our most recent estimate of the fair value for the underlying property which is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A lower loan-to-value indicates that our loan value is more likely to be recovered in the event of default by the borrower if the property was sold. The debt service coverage ratio is based on “normalized” annual net operating income of the property compared to the payments required under the terms of the loan. Normalization allows for the removal of annual one-time events such as capital expenditures, prepaid or late real estate tax payments or non-recurring third-party fees (such as legal, consulting or contract fees). This ratio is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A higher debt service coverage ratio indicates the borrower is less likely to default on the loan. The debt service coverage ratio should not be used without considering other factors associated with the borrower, such as the borrower’s liquidity or access to other resources that may result in our expectation that the borrower will continue to make the future scheduled payments.

Of the total carrying value ofour restricted commercial mortgage loans as of March 31, 20112012, $389 million were current, $3 million were 31 to 60 days past due and $2 million were 61 to 90 days past due. As of March 31, 2012, we did not have any restricted commercial mortgage loans that were past due for more than 90 days and still accruing interest. Of our restricted commercial mortgage loans as of December 31, 2010, $4852011, $408 million were current, $2 million were 61 to 90 days past due and $507$3 million respectively,were past due for more than 90 days and still accruing interest.

As of March 31, 2012, the total recorded investment of restricted commercial mortgage loans of $394 million related to loans not individually impaired that were evaluated collectively for impairment. As of December 31, 2011, loans not individually impaired that were evaluated collectively for impairment were $412 million of the total recorded investment of restricted commercial mortgage loans of $413 million. There was no provision for credit losses recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2012 or 2011 related to restricted commercial mortgage loans. A provision for credit losses of $2 million was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2010 related to restricted commercial mortgage loans, which reflected our ending allowance for credit losses balance and was required upon consolidation of securitization entities as of January 1, 2010.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

In evaluating the credit quality of restricted commercial mortgage loans, we assess the performance of the underlying loans using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. The risks associated with restricted commercial

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

mortgage loans can typically be evaluated by reviewing both the loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratio to understand both the probability of the borrower not being able to make the necessary loan payments as well as the ability to sell the underlying property for an amount that would enable us to recover our unpaid principal balance in the event of default by the borrower. The average loan-to-value ratio is based on our most recent estimate of the fair value for the underlying property which is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A lower loan-to-value indicates that our loan value is more likely to be recovered in the event of default by the borrower if the property was sold. The debt service coverage ratio is based on “normalized” annual net operating income of the property compared to the payments required under the terms of the loan. Normalization allows for the removal of annual one-time events such as capital expenditures, prepaid or late real estate tax payments or non-recurring third-party fees (such as legal, consulting or contract fees). This ratio is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A higher debt service coverage ratio indicates the borrower is less likely to default on the loan. The debt service coverage ratio should not be used without considering other factors associated with the borrower, such as the borrower’s liquidity or access to other resources that may result in our expectation that the borrower will continue to make the future scheduled payments.

(g) Restricted Other Invested Assets Related To Securitization Entities

We have consolidated securitization entities that hold certain investments that are recorded as restricted other invested assets related to securitization entities. The consolidated securitization entities hold certain investments as trading securities whereby the changes in fair value are recorded in current period income. The trading securities are comprised of asset-backed securities, including residual interest in certain policy loan securitization entities and highly rated bonds that are primarily backed by credit card receivables.

(5) Derivative Instruments

Our business activities routinely deal with fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, currency exchange rates and other asset and liability prices. We use derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce certain of these risks. We have established policies for managing each of these risks, including prohibitions on derivatives

market-making and other speculative derivatives activities. These policies require the use of derivative instruments in concert with other techniques to reduce or mitigate these risks. While we use derivatives to mitigate or reduce risks, certain derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments and are denoted as “derivatives not designated as hedges��hedges” in the following disclosures. For derivatives that meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedges, the following disclosures for these derivatives are denoted as “derivatives designated as hedges,” which include both cash flow and fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded as a component of OCI. We designate and account for the following as cash flow hedges when they have met the effectiveness requirements: (i) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate investments to fixed rate investments; (ii) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate liabilities into fixed rate liabilities; (iii) receive U.S. dollar fixed on foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure of foreign currency denominated investments; (iv) pay U.S. dollar fixed on foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure on liabilities denominated in foreign currencies; (v) forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in interest rates associated with future fixed-ratefixed rate bond purchases and/or interest income; (vi) forward bond purchase commitments to hedge against the variability in the anticipated cash flows required to purchase future fixed rate bonds; and (vi)(vii) other instruments to hedge the cash flows of various forecasted transactions.

The total of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of $864$1,680 million, net of taxes, recorded in stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 20112012 is expected to be reclassified to future net income, (loss), concurrently with and primarily offsetting changes in interest expense and interest income on floating-ratefloating rate instruments and interest income on future fixed-ratefixed rate bond purchases. Of this amount, $18$27 million, net of taxes, is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the next 12 months. Actual amounts may vary from this amount as a result of market conditions. All forecasted transactions associated with qualifying cash flow hedges are expected to occur by 2045. No amounts were reclassified to net income during the three months ended March 31, 20112012 in connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered probable of occurring.

Fair Value Hedges

Certain derivative instruments are designated as fair value hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in net income (loss).income. In addition, changes in the fair value attributable to the hedged portion of the underlying instrument are reported in net income (loss).income. We designate and account for the following as fair value hedges when they have met the effectiveness requirements: (i) interest rate swaps to convert fixed rate investments to floating rate investments; (ii) interest rate swaps to convert fixed rate liabilities into floating rate liabilities; (iii) cross currency swaps to convert non-U.S. dollar fixed rate liabilities to floating rate U.S. dollar liabilities; and (iv) other instruments to hedge various fair value exposures of investments.

Derivatives Not Designated As Hedges

We also enter into certain non-qualifying derivative instruments such as: (i) interest rate swaps, swaptions and financial futures to mitigate interest rate risk as part of managing regulatory capital positions; (ii) credit default swaps to enhance yield and reproduce characteristics of investments with similar terms and credit risk; (iii) equity index options, equity return swaps, interest rate swaps and financial futures to mitigate the risks associated with liabilities that have guaranteed minimum benefits; (iv) interest rate swaps where the hedging relationship does not qualify for hedge accounting; (v) credit default swaps to mitigate loss exposure to certain credit risk; and (vi) foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with future dividends and other cash flows from certain foreign subsidiaries to our holding company.company; and (vii) equity index options and credit default swaps to mitigate certain macroeconomic risks associated with certain foreign subsidiaries. Additionally, we provide GMWBs on certain products that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives and have reinsurance agreements with certain features that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives.

We also have derivatives related to securitization entities where we were required to consolidate the related securitization entity as a result of our involvement in the structure. The counterparties for these derivatives typically only have recourse to the securitization entity. The interest rate swaps used for these entities are typically used to effectively convert the interest payments on the assets of the securitization entity to the same basis as the interest rate on the borrowings issued by the securitization entity. Credit default swaps are utilized in certain securitization entities to enhance the yield payable on the borrowings issued by the securitization entity and also include a settlement feature that allows the securitization entity to provide the par value of assets in the securitization entity for the amount of any losses incurred under the credit default swap.

Derivative Counterparty Credit Risk

As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, net fair value assets by counterparty totaled $773$551 million and $888$1,027 million, respectively. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, net fair value liabilities by counterparty totaled $191$364 million and $172$240 million, respectively. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, we retained collateral of $745$589 million and $794$1,023 million, respectively, related to these agreements, including over collateralization of $53$63 million and $29$50 million, respectively, from certain counterparties. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, we posted $67$181 million and $30$28 million, respectively, of collateral to derivative counterparties, including over collateralization of $16$14 million and $11 million, respectively. For derivatives related to securitization entities, there are no arrangements that require either party to provide collateral and the recourse of the derivative counterparty is typically limited to the assets held by the securitization entity and there is no recourse to any entity other than the securitization entity.

Except for derivatives related to securitization entities, all of our master swap agreements contain credit downgrade provisions that allow either party to assign or terminate derivative transactions if the other party’s long-term unsecured debt rating or financial strength rating is below the limit defined in the applicable agreement. If the downgrade provisions had been triggered as of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, we could have been allowed to claim up to $81$25 million and $123$54 million, respectively, from counterparties and required to disburse up to $4$25 million and $5$18 million, respectively. This represented the net fair value of gains and losses by counterparty, less available collateral held, and did not include any fair value gains or losses for derivatives related to securitization entities.

Credit Derivatives

We sell protection under single name credit default swaps and credit default swap index tranches in combination with purchasing securities to replicate characteristics of similar investments based on the credit quality and term of the credit default swap. Credit default triggers for both indexed reference entities and single

name reference entities follow the Credit Derivatives Physical Settlement Matrix published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association. Under these terms, credit default triggers are defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay or restructuring, if applicable. Our maximum exposure to credit loss equals the notional value for credit default swaps. In the event of default for credit default swaps, we are typically required to pay the protection holder the full notional value less a recovery rate determined at auction.

In addition to the credit derivatives discussed above, we also have credit derivative instruments related to securitization entities that we consolidated in 2010. These derivatives represent a customized index of reference entities with specified attachment points for certain derivatives. The credit default triggers are similar to those described above. In the event of default, the securitization entity will provide the counterparty with the par value of assets held in the securitization entity for the amount of incurred loss on the credit default swap. The maximum exposure to loss for the securitization entity is the notional value of the derivatives. Certain losses on these credit default swaps would be absorbed by the third-party noteholders of the securitization entity and the remaining losses on the credit default swaps would be absorbed by our portion of the notes issued by the securitization entity.

The following table sets forth our credit default swaps where we sell protection on single name reference entities and the fair values as of the dates indicated:

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value are not included in the following disclosure of fair value. Such items include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, separate accounts, securities held as collateral and derivative instruments. Other financial assets and liabilities—those not carried at fair value—are discussed below. Apart from certain of our borrowings and certain marketable securities, few of the instruments discussed below are actively traded and their fair values must often be determined using models. The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon available market information and judgments about the financial instruments, including estimates of the timing and amount of expected future cash flows and the credit standing of counterparties. Such estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time our entire holdings of a particular financial instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized gains or losses. In many cases, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets.

The basis on which we estimate fair value is as follows:

Commercial mortgage loans. Based on recent transactions and/or discounted future cash flows, using current market rates. Given the limited availability of data related to transactions for similar instruments, we typically classify these loans as Level 3.

Restricted commercial mortgage loans. Based on recent transactions and/or discounted future cash flows, using current market rates. Given the limited availability of data related to transactions for similar instruments, we typically classify these loans as Level 3.

Other invested assets.Based on comparable market transactions, discounted future cash flows, quoted market prices and/or estimates using the most recent data available for the related instrument. Primarily represents short-term investments and limited partnerships accounted for under the cost method. The fair value of short-term investments typically does not include significant unobservable inputs and approximate our amortized cost basis. As a result, short-term investments are classified as Level 2. Cost method limited partnerships typically include significant unobservable inputs as a result of being relatively illiquid with limited market activity for similar instruments and are classified as Level 3.

Long-term borrowings.BasedWe utilize available market data when determining fair value of long-term borrowings issued in the U.S. and Canada, which includes data on recent trades for the same or similar financial instruments. Accordingly, these instruments are classified as Level 2 measurements. In cases where market data is not available such as our Australian borrowings, we use broker quotes or comparable market transactions.for which we consider the valuation methodology utilized by the third party but cannot typically obtain sufficient evidence to determine the valuation does not include significant unobservable inputs. Accordingly, we typically classify these borrowings where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

Non-recourse funding obligations. Based onWe use an internal model to determine fair value using the then current coupon, revalued based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and current spread assumption based on commercially available data. The model is a floating rate coupon modeland expected life/final maturity of the instrument discounted using the floating rate index and current market spread assumption, which is estimated based on recent transactions for these instruments or similar instruments as well as other market information or broker provided data. Given these instruments are private and very little market activity exists, our current market spread assumption is considered to derivehave significant unobservable inputs in calculating fair value and, therefore, results in the valuation.fair value of these instruments being classified as Level 3.

Borrowings related to securitization entities.Based on market quotes or comparable market transactions. Some of these borrowings are publicly traded debt securities and are classified as Level 2. Certain borrowings are not publicly traded and are classified as Level 3.

Investment contracts.Based on expected future cash flows, discounted at current market rates for annuity contracts or institutional products. Given the significant unobservable inputs associated with policyholder behavior and current market rate assumptions used to discount the expected future cash flows, we classify these instruments as Level 3 except for certain funding agreement-backed notes that are traded in the marketplace as a security and are classified as Level 2.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

We have fixed maturity, equity and trading securities, derivatives, embedded derivatives, securities held as collateral, separate account assets and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value. Below is a description of the valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair value by class of instrument.

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Fixed maturity, equity and trading securities

The valuations of fixed maturity, equity and trading securities are determined using a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information.

We utilize certain third-party data providers when determining fair value. We consider information obtained from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”) as well as third-party broker provided prices, or broker quotes, in our determination of fair value. Additionally, we utilize internal models to determine the valuation of securities using an income approach where the inputs are based on third-party provided market inputs. While we consider the valuations provided by third-party pricing services and broker quotes, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information. We also use various methods to obtain an understanding of the valuation methodologies and procedures used by third-party data providers to ensure sufficient understanding to evaluate the valuation data received, including an understanding of the assumptions and inputs utilized to determine the appropriate fair value. Additionally, we evaluate significant changes in fair value each month to further aide in our review of the accuracy our fair value measurements and understanding of changes in fair value, where more detailed reviews are performed by the asset managers responsible for the related asset class associated with the security being reviewed.

In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If a price is not supplied by a pricing service, we will typically seek a broker quote. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for identical securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotequotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models.

For pricing services, we obtain an understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures for each type of instrument. In general, a pricing service does not provide a price for a security if sufficient information is not readily available to determine fair value or if such security is not in the specific sector or class covered by a particular pricing service. Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs.inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value and utilize public bond spreads by sector, rating and maturity to develop the market rate that would be utilized for a similar public bond. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of our private placements. We utilize the estimated market yield to discount the expected cash flows of the security to determine fair value. We assign each security an internal rating to determine the appropriate public bond spread that should be utilized in the valuation. While we generally consider the public bond spreads by sector and maturity to be observable inputs, we evaluate the similarities of our private placement with the public bonds and whether external ratings are available for our private placement to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputsinputs. In general, increases (decreases) in credit spreads will decrease (increase) the fair value for the private placement being valued.our fixed maturity securities. To determine the significance of unobservable inputs, we calculate the impact on the valuation from the unobservable input and will classify a security as Level 3 when the impact on the valuation exceeds 10%.

For broker quotes, we discussconsider the valuation methodology utilized by the third party but cannot typically obtain sufficient evidence to determine the valuation does not include significant unobservable inputs. Accordingly, we typically classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.

For remaining securities priced using internal models, we maximize the use of observable inputs but typically utilize significant unobservable inputs to determine fair value. Accordingly, the valuations are typically classified as Level 3.

Restricted other invested assets related to securitization entities

We have trading securities related to securitization entities that are classified as restricted other invested assets and are carried at fair value. The trading securities represent asset-backed securities. The valuation for trading securities is determined using a market approach and/or an income approach depending on the availability of information. For certain highly rated asset-backed securities, there is observable market information for transactions of the same or similar instruments, andwhich is provided to us by a third-party pricing service and is classified as Level 2. For certain securities that are not actively traded, we determine fair value after considering third-party broker provided prices or discounted expected cash flows using current yields for similar securities and classify these valuations as Level 3.

Securities lending and derivative counterparty collateral

The fair value of securities held as collateral is primarily based on Level 2 inputs from market information for the collateral that is held on our behalf by the custodian. We determine fair value after considering prices obtained by third-party pricing services.

Separate account assets

The fair value of separate account assets is based on the quoted prices of the underlying fund investments and, therefore, represents Level 1 pricing.

Derivatives

In determining the fair value of derivatives, weWe consider the counterparty collateral arrangements and rights of set-off when evaluating our net credit risk exposure to our derivative counterparties. Accordingly, we are permitted to include consideration of these arrangements when determining whether any incremental adjustment should be made for both the counterparty’s and our non-performance risk.risk in measuring fair value for our derivative instruments. As a result of these counterparty arrangements, we determined no incremental adjustment for our non-performance risk or the non-performance risk of the derivative counterparty was required to our derivative assets or liabilities. We determine fair value for our derivatives using an income approach using internal models based on relevant market inputs for each derivative instrument. We also compare the fair value determined using our internal model to the valuations provided by our derivative counterparties with any significant differences or changes in valuation being evaluated further by our derivatives professionals that are familiar with the instrument and market inputs used in the valuation.

Interest rate swaps.The valuation of interest rate swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary input into the valuation represents the forward interest rate swap curve, which is generally considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2. For certain interest rate swaps, the inputs into the valuation also include the total returns of certain bonds that would primarily be considered an observable input and result in the derivative being classified as Level 2. For certain other swaps, there are features that provide an option to the counterparty to terminate the swap at specified dates anddates. The interest rate volatility input used to value these options would be considered a significant unobservable input and results in the fair value measurement of the derivative being classified as Level 3. These options to terminate the swap by the counterparty are based on forward interest rate swap curves and volatility. As interest rate volatility increases, our valuation of the derivative changes unfavorably.

Interest rate swaps related to securitization entities.The valuation of interest rate swaps related to securitization entities is determined using an income approach. The primary input into the valuation represents the forward interest rate swap curve, which is generally considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Inflation indexed swaps. The valuation of inflation indexed swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve and consumer price index, which are generally considered observable inputs, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Interest rate swaptions. The valuation of interest rate swaptions is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve, which is generally considered an observable input, forward interest rate volatility and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative. As a result of the significant unobservable inputs associated with the forward interest rate volatility input, the derivative is classified as Level 3.

Foreign currency swaps. The valuation of foreign currency swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve and foreign currency exchange rates, both of which are considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Credit default swaps. We have both single name credit default swaps and index tranche credit default swaps. For single name credit default swaps, we utilize an income approach to determine fair value based on using current market information for the credit spreads of the reference entity, which is considered observable inputs based on the reference entities of our derivatives and results in these derivatives being classified as Level 2. For index tranche credit default swaps, we utilize an income approach that utilizes current market information related to credit spreads and expected defaults and losses associated with the reference entities that comprise the respective index associated with each derivative. There are significant unobservable inputs associated with the timing and amount of losses from the reference entities as well as the timing or amount of losses, if any, that will be absorbed by our tranche. Accordingly, the index tranche credit default swaps are classified as Level 3. As credit spreads widen for the underlying issuers comprising the index, the change in our valuation of these credit default swaps will be unfavorable.

Credit default swaps related to securitization entities.Credit default swaps related to securitization entities represent customized index tranche credit default swaps and are valued using a similar methodology as described above for index tranche credit default swaps. We determine fair value of these credit default swaps after considering both the valuation methodology described above as well as the valuation provided by the derivative counterparty. In addition to the valuation methodology and inputs described for index tranche credit default swaps, these customized credit default swaps contain a feature that permits the securitization entity to provide the par value of underlying assets in the securitization entity to settle any losses under the credit default swap. The valuation of this settlement feature is dependent upon the valuation of the underlying assets and the timing and amount of any expected loss on the credit default swap, which is considered a significant unobservable input. Accordingly, these customized index tranche credit default swaps related to securitization entities are classified as Level 3. As credit spreads widen for the underlying issuers comprising the customized index, the change in our valuation of these credit default swaps will be unfavorable.

Equity index options. We have equity index options associated with various equity indices. The valuation of equity index options is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent forward interest rate volatility and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative, which are considered significant unobservable inputs in most instances. The equity index volatility surface is determined based on market information that is not readily observable and is developed based upon inputs received from several third-party sources. Accordingly, these options are classified as Level 33. As equity index volatility increases, our valuation of these options changes favorably.

Financial futures. The fair value of financial futures is based on the closing exchange prices. Accordingly, these financial futures are classified as Level 1. The period end valuation is zero as a result of settling the margins on these contracts on a daily basis.

Equity return swaps.The valuation of equity return swaps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve and underlying equity index values, which are generally considered observable inputs, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Forward bond purchase commitments.The valuation of forward bond purchase commitments is determined using an income approach. The primary input into the valuation represents the current bond prices and interest rates, which are generally considered an observable input, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Other foreign currency contracts.We have certain foreign currency options classified as other foreign currency contracts. The valuation of foreign currency options is determined using an income approach. The

primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve, foreign currency exchange rates, forward interest rate, and foreign currency exchange rate volatility, foreign equity index volatility and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative. As a result of the significant unobservable inputs associated with the forward interest rate, and foreign currency exchange rate volatility input,and foreign equity index volatility inputs, the derivative is classified as Level 3. As foreign currency exchange rate volatility and foreign equity index volatility increases, the change in our valuation of these options will be favorable. We also have foreign currency forward contracts where the valuation is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward foreign currency exchange rates, which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.

Reinsurance embedded derivatives

We have certain reinsurance agreements that result in a reinsurance counterparty holding assets for our benefit where this feature is considered an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. As a result, we measure the embedded derivatives at fair value with changes in fair value being recorded in income.income (loss). Fair value is determined by comparing the fair value and cost basis of the underlying assets. The underlying assets are primarily comprised of highly rated investments and result in the fair value of the embedded derivatives being classified as Level 2.

GMWB embedded derivatives

We are required to bifurcate an embedded derivative for certain features associated with annuity products and related reinsurance agreements where we provide a GMWB to the policyholder and are required to record the GMWB embedded derivative at fair value. The valuation of our GMWB embedded derivative is based on an income approach that incorporates inputs such as forward interest rates, equity index volatility, equity index and fund correlation, and policyholder assumptions such as utilization, lapse and mortality. In addition to these inputs, we also consider risk and expense margins when determining the projected cash flows that would be determined by another market participant. While the risk and expense margins are considered in determining fair value, these inputs do not have a significant impact on the valuation. We determine fair value using an internal model based on the various inputs noted above. The resulting fair value measurement from the model is reviewed by the product actuarial, risk and finance professionals each reporting period with changes in fair value also being compared to changes in derivatives and other instruments used to mitigate changes in fair value from certain market risks, such as equity index volatility and interest rates.

For GMWB liabilities, non-performance risk is integrated into the discount rate. Prior to the third quarter of 2010, theOur discount rate was based on the swap curve, which incorporated the non-performance riskused to determine fair value of our GMWB liabilities. Beginning in 2009, the swap curve dropped below the U.S. Treasury curve at certain points on the longer end of the curve, and in 2010, the points below the U.S. Treasury curve expanded to several points beyond 10 years. For these points on the curve, we utilized the U.S. Treasury curve as our discount rate through the second quarter of 2010. Beginning in the third quarter of 2010, we revised our discount rate to reflectliabilities includes market credit spreads that representabove U.S. Treasury rates to reflect an adjustment for the non-performance risk of the GMWB liabilities. The credit spreads included in our discount rate range from 60 to 80 basis points over the most relevant points on the U.S. Treasury curve. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, the impact of non-performance risk resulted in a lower fair value of our GMWB liabilities of $39$77 million and $44$109 million, respectively.

To determine the appropriate discount rate to reflect the non-performance risk of the GMWB liabilities, we evaluate the non-performance risk in our liabilities based on a hypothetical exit market transaction as there is no exit market for these types of liabilities. A hypothetical exit market can be viewed as a hypothetical transfer of the liability to another similarly rated insurance company which would closely resemble a reinsurance transaction. Another hypothetical exit market transaction can be viewed as a hypothetical transaction from the perspective of the GMWB policyholder. In determining the appropriate discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk of the GMWB liabilities, we also considered the impacts of state guarantees embedded in

the related insurance product as a form of inseparable third-party guarantee. We believe that a hypothetical exit market participant would use a similar discount rate as described above to value the liabilities.

For equity index volatility, we determine the projected equity market volatility using both historical volatility and projected near-term equity market volatility with more significance being placed on projected and recent historical data.

Equity index and fund correlations are determined based on historical price observations for the fund and equity index.

For policyholder assumptions, we use our expected lapse, mortality and utilization assumptions and update these assumptions for our actual experience, as necessary. For our lapse assumption, we adjust our base lapse assumption by policy based on a combination of the policyholder’s current account value and GMWB benefit.

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

We classify the GMWB valuation as Level 3 based on having significant unobservable inputs, with equity index volatility and non-performance risk being considered the more significant unobservable inputs. As equity index volatility increases, the fair value of the GMWB liabilities will increase. Any increase in non-performance risk would increase the discount rate and would decrease the fair value of the GMWB liability.

We evaluate the inputs and methodologies used to determine fair value based on how we expect a market participant would determine exit value. As stated above, there is no exit market or market participants for the GMWB embedded derivatives. Accordingly, we evaluate our inputs and resulting fair value based on a hypothetical exit market and hypothetical market participants. A hypothetical exit market could be viewed as a transaction that would closely resemble reinsurance. While reinsurance transactions for this type of product are not an observable input, we consider this type of hypothetical exit market, as appropriate, when evaluating our inputs and determining that our inputs are consistent with that of a hypothetical market participant.

Contingent purchase price

We have certain contingent purchase price payments related to acquisitions made after 2009 that are required to be recorded at fair value each period. Fair value is determined using an income approach whereby we project the expected earnings of the business and compare our projections of the relevant earnings metric to the thresholds established in the purchase agreement to determine our expected payments. We then discount these expected payments to calculate the fair value as of the valuation date. We evaluate the underlying projections used in determining fair value each period and update these underlying projections when there have been significant changes in our expectations of the future business performance. The inputs used to determine the discount rate and expected payments are primarily based on significant unobservable inputs and result in the fair value of the contingent purchase price being classified as Level 3.

Borrowings related to securitization entities

We record certain borrowings related to securitization entities at fair value. The fair value of these borrowings is determined using either a market approach or income approach, depending on the instrument and availability of market information. Given the unique characteristics of the securitization entities that issued these borrowings as well as the lack of comparable instruments, we determine fair value considering the valuation of the underlying assets held by the securitization entities and any derivatives, as well as any unique characteristics of the borrowings that may impact the valuation. After considering all relevant inputs, we determine fair value of the borrowings using the net valuation of the underlying assets and derivatives that are backing the borrowings. Accordingly, these instruments are classified as Level 3. Increases in the valuation of the underlying assets or decreases in the derivative liabilities will result in an increase in the fair value of these borrowings.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

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. Given the types of assets classified as Level 1, which primarily represents mutual fund investments, we typically do not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 measurement categories and did not have any such transfers during any period presented.

Our assessment of whether or not there were significant unobservable inputs related to fixed maturity securities was based on our observations obtained through the course of managing our investment portfolio, including interaction with other market participants, observations related to the availability and consistency of pricing and/or rating, and understanding of general market activity such as new issuance and the level of secondary market trading for a class of securities. Additionally, we considered data obtained from third-party pricing sources to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.

During 2010, primary market issuanceThe transfers into and secondary market activityout of Level 3 were primarily related to private fixed rate U.S. and non-U.S. corporate securities and resulted from a change in the observability of the additional premium to the public bond spread to adjust for commercial and non-agency residential mortgage-backedthe liquidity and other asset-backed securities increased the market observable inputs used to establish fair values for similar securities. These factors, along with more consistent pricing from third-party sources,features of our private placements and resulted in our conclusion that there is sufficient trading activityunobservable inputs having a significant impact on certain valuations for transfers in similar instruments to support classifyingor no longer having significant impact on certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities as Level 2.valuations for transfers out.

Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on Level 3 assets and liabilities are primarily reported in either net investment gains (losses) within the consolidated statements of income or OCI within stockholders’ equity based on the appropriate accounting treatment for the instrument.

Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements represent the activity that occurred during the period that results in a change of the asset or liability but does not represent changes in fair value for the instruments held at the beginning of the period. Such activity primarily consists of purchases, sales and settlements of fixed maturity, equity and trading securities and purchases, issuances and settlements of derivative instruments.

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Issuances and settlements presented for policyholder account balances represent the issuances and settlements of embedded derivatives associated with our GMWB liabilities where: issuances are characterized as the change in fair value associated with the product fees recognized that are attributed to the embedded derivative to equal the expected future benefit costs upon issuance and settlements are characterized as the change in fair value upon exercising the embedded derivative instrument, effectively representing a settlement of the embedded derivative instrument. We have shown these changes in fair value separately based on the classification of this activity as effectively issuing and settling the embedded derivative instrument with all remaining changes in the fair value of these embedded derivative instruments being shown separately in the category labeled “included in net (income)” in the tables presented above.

The amount presented for unrealized gains (losses) for assets and liabilities still held as of the reporting date primarily represents impairmentsincluded in net income for available-for-sale securities changes in fair value of trading securities and certain derivatives and changes in fair value of embedded derivatives associated with our GMWB liabilities that existed as of the reporting date, which were recorded in net investment gains (losses),represents impairments and accretion on certain fixed maturity securities which was recordedsecurities.

(7) Commitments and Contingencies

(a) Litigation

We face the risk of litigation and regulatory investigations and actions in the ordinary course of operating our businesses, including class action lawsuits. Our pending legal and regulatory actions include proceedings specific to us and others generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which we operate. In our insurance operations, we are, have been, or may become subject to class actions and individual suits alleging, among other things, issues relating to sales or underwriting practices, increases to in-force long-term care insurance premiums, payment of contingent or other sales commissions, bidding practices in connection with our management and administration of a third-party’s municipal guaranteed investment contract business, claims payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, administration, additional premium charges for premiums paid on a periodic basis, denial or delay of benefits, charging excessive or impermissible fees on products, recommending unsuitable products to customers, our pricing structures and business practices in our mortgage insurance businesses, such as captive reinsurance arrangements with lenders and contract underwriting services, violations of the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act of 1974 (“RESPA”) or related state anti-inducement laws, and breaching fiduciary or other duties to customers. Plaintiffs in class action and other lawsuits against us may seek very large or indeterminate amounts which may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. In our investment-related operations, we are subject to litigation involving commercial disputes with counterparties. We are also subject to litigation arising out of our general business activities such as our contractual and employment relationships. In addition, we are also subject to various regulatory inquiries, such as information requests, subpoenas, books and record examinations and market conduct and financial examinations from state, federal

and international regulators and other authorities. A substantial legal liability or a significant regulatory action against us could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if we ultimately prevail in the litigation, regulatory action or investigation, we could suffer significant reputational harm, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. At this time, it is not feasible to predict, nor determine the ultimate outcomes of any pending investigations and legal proceedings, nor to provide reasonable ranges of possible losses.

As previously disclosed, in December 2011, one of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries received a subpoena from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General with respect to reinsurance arrangements, including captive reinsurance transactions. That subpoena was withdrawn subsequent to our subsidiary’s receipt of an information request from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in January 2012, relating to the same subject matter.

As previously disclosed, in December 2009,2011 and January 2012, one of our non-insuranceU.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries one of the subsidiary’s officerswas named along with several other mortgage insurance participants and Genworth Financial, Inc. were namedmortgage lenders as a defendant in athree putative class action lawsuitlawsuits alleging that certain “captive reinsurance arrangements” were in violation of RESPA. Four additional putative class actions, making similar allegations, have since been filed in which our mortgage insurance subsidiary is again named as one of numerous defendants. Those cases are captioned as follows:Michael J. Goodman and Linda BrownMcCarn, et al. v. Genworth Financial Wealth Management, Inc.,HSB, et al,al. in the, United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. In response to our motion to dismissCalifornia;Manners, et al, v. First Third Bank, et al., United States District court for the complaint in its entirety, the Court granted on March 30, 2011 the motion to dismiss the state law fiduciary duty claim and denied the motion to dismiss the remaining federal claims. We continue to vigorously defend this action.

As previously disclosed, we and oneWestern District of our mortgage insurance subsidiaries were named in a putative class action lawsuit filed in November 2010 captionedPennsylvania;Archie Moses and Violet M. Moses v. SunTrust Banks, Inc.,Riddle, et al,al. v Bank of America, et al.in the, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Columbia. On March 10, 2011, plaintiffs voluntarily dismissedPennsylvania; andRulison et al. v. ABN AMRO Mortgage Group, Inc. et al., United States District Court for the action without prejudiceSouthern District of New York. We intend to vigorously defend these actions.

In April 2012, two of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries were named as to Genworth Financial,respondents in two arbitrations, one brought by Bank of America, N.A., and one brought by Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A., as claimants.

Claimants seek damages in excess of $834 million, in addition to interest and punitive damages. We intend to vigorously defend these actions.

(b) Commitments

As of March 31, 2011,2012, we were committed to fund $106$71 million in limited partnership investments and $39$15 million in U.S. commercial mortgage loan investments.

(8) Borrowings and Other Financings

Revolving Credit Facilities

We have two five-year revolving credit facilities that mature in May 2012 and August 2012. These facilities bear variable interest rates based on one-month LIBORLondon Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin and we have access to $1.9 billion under these facilities. As of March 31, 2011,2012, we had no borrowings under these facilities; however, we utilized $280$254 million under these facilities primarily for the issuance of letters of credit for the benefit of one of our life insurance subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we had no borrowings under these facilities; however, we utilized $56$257 million under these facilities primarily for the issuance of letters of credit for the benefit of one of our lifestyle protectionlife insurance subsidiaries. At this time, we do not intend to renew our revolving credit facility that matures in May 2012. As we approach the maturity date for our August credit facility, we are evaluating, and will continue to evaluate, our options to extend, replace or refinance a portion of our credit facility. There can be no assurance that we will be able to extend, replace or refinance this facility on terms (or at targeted amounts) acceptable to us or at all.

Long-Term Senior Notes

In March 2011,2012, we issuedpriced a $350 million reopening of our 7.625% senior notes havingdue in September 2021. The notes were offered as additional debt securities under an indenture, as supplemented from time to time, pursuant to which we have previously issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of $400 million, with an interest rate equal toour 7.625% per year payable semi-annually, and maturingsenior notes due in September 2021 (“2021 Notes”).2021. The 2021 Notesnotes are our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2021 Notes at any time with proper notice to the note holdersThe notes were issued at a public offering price equal to the greater of 100%103% of principal or the sumamount, with a yield to maturity of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the then-current treasury rate plus an applicable spread.7.184%. The net proceeds of $397$358 million from the issuance of the 2021 Notesnew notes were used for general corporate purposes.purposes, including increasing liquidity at the holding company level.

Non-Recourse Funding Obligations

As of March 31, 2012, we had $2.6 billion of fixed and floating rate non-recourse funding obligations outstanding backing additional statutory reserves. In January 2012, as part of a life block sale transaction, we repurchased $475 million of our non-recourse funding obligations issued by River Lake Insurance Company III (“River Lake III”), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, resulting in a U.S. GAAP after-tax gain of approximately $52 million. In connection with the repurchase, we ceded certain term life insurance policies to a third-party reinsurer resulting in a U.S. GAAP after-tax loss, net of amortization of deferred acquisition costs, of $93 million. The combined transactions resulted in a U.S. GAAP after-tax loss of approximately $41 million which was included in our U.S. Life Insurance segment. In February and March 2012, we repaid the remaining non-recourse funding obligations issued by River Lake III of $176 million.

Non-Recourse Funding Obligations

As of March 31, 2011, we had $3.4 billion of fixed and floating rate non-recourse funding obligations outstanding backing additional statutory reserves. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, the weighted-average interest rates on our non-recourse funding obligations were 1.41%1.30% and 1.44%1.41%, respectively.

(9) Income Taxes

The reconciliation of the federal statutory tax rate to the effective income tax rate was as follows for the periods indicated:

   2011  2010 

Statutory U.S. federal income tax rate

   (2.7  (6.6

Effect of foreign operations

   (14.4  (13.7

Non-deductible expenses

   0.6    (0.5

Interest on uncertain tax positions

   —      (2.2

Tax benefits related to separation from our former parent

   —      (89.5

Other, net

   0.8    2.7  
         

Effective rate

   20.5  (78.2)% 
         

The effective tax rate increased significantly from the prior year due to uncertain tax benefits related to separation from our former parent in the prior year that did not recur. In connection with our 2004 separation from our former parent, General Electric (“GE”), we made certain joint tax elections and realized certain tax benefits. During the first quarter of 2010, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) completed an examination of GE’s 2004 tax return, including these tax impacts. Therefore, $106 million of previously uncertain tax benefits related to separation became certain and we recognized those in the first quarter of 2010. Additionally, we recorded $20 million as additional paid-in capital related to our 2004 separation.

We use the same accounting policies and procedures to measure segment income (loss) and assets as our consolidated net income (loss) and assets. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of “net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders.” We define net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, after-tax net investment gains (losses) and other adjustments and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. We exclude net investment gains (losses) and infrequent or unusual non-operating items because we do not consider them to be related to the operating performance of our segments and Corporate and Other activities. A component of our net investment gains (losses) is the result of impairments, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to our discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. Infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. While some of these items may be significant components of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we believe that net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, and measures that are derived from or incorporate net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. However, net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders is not a substitute for net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition of net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.

There were no infrequent or unusual non-operating items excluded from net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders during the periods presented other than a $106 million tax benefit related to separation from our former parent recorded in the first quarter of 2010.presented.

Business trends and conditions

Our business is, and we expect will continue to be, influenced by a number of industry-wide and product-specific trends and conditions. The following discussion of business trends and conditions should be read together with the trends discussed in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which described additional business trends and conditions.

General conditions and trends affecting our businesses

Financial and economic environment. The stability of both the financial markets and global economies in which we operate impacts the sales, revenue growth and profitability trends of our businesses. Improvements in equityEquity markets, credit markets and interest rate spreads and global financial markets seengenerally improved during 2010 continued in the first quarter of 2011. In Canada,2012. Although global financial markets experienced some improvement during the housing marketfirst quarter of 2012, the European debt crisis and concerns regarding the U.S. economy continued to improve while unemployment levels remained relatively in line withimpact the fourth quarter of 2010. In Australia, the housing market has remained stable and unemployment levels remained consistent with the fourth quarter of 2010 despite recent natural disasters though these disasters could impact regional economies over the medium-term. recovery.

The U.S. housing market reflected continuing stress and growing levels of foreclosures andwith variations in performance by sub-market, including continued signs of stabilization within certain regions.regions while others declined. Unemployment and underemployment levels in the United States remained relatively constant with the fourth quarter of 2011 that experienced a slight decline in December 2011. We expect unemployment and underemployment levels in the United States to stabilize at elevated levels and gradually decrease over time though remain elevated for an extended period. In Canada, the housing market was pressured by a smaller

refinance market while home prices increased modestly and unemployment levels decreased slightly from the fourth quarter of 2011. In Australia, the overall housing market has remained fairly stable with home prices and unemployment remaining consistent with the fourth quarter of 2011 with some regional variations. Economic growth in Australia slowed given the economic impact of pressures from higher interest rates, higher costs of living, higher exchange rates and cautious consumer spending, particularly in coastal tourism areas of Queensland where these pressures were exacerbated by the flooding in January 2011. Europe overall remained a slow growth environment with lower lending activity and reduced consumer lending activity.spending, particularly in Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Italy, in part as a result of the European debt crisis and actual or anticipated austerity initiatives. See “—Trends and conditions affecting our segments” below for a discussion regarding the impacts the financial markets and global economies have on our businesses.

Slow or varied levels of economic growth, coupled with uncertain financial markets and economic outlooks, changes in government policy, regulatory reforms and other changes in market conditions, influenced, and we believe will continue to influence, investment and spending decisions by consumers and businesses as they adjust their consumption, debt, capital and risk profiles in response to these conditions. Although theseThese trends have generally improvedchange as investor confidence in the markets and the outlook for some consumers and businesses strengthened,shift. As a result, our sales, revenues and profitability trends of certain insurance and investment products have been and could be further adversely impacted negatively or positively going forward. In particular, factors such as government spending, monetary policies, the volatility and strength of the capital markets, anticipated tax policy changes and the impact of U.S. healthcare andglobal financial regulation reform will continue to affect economic and business outlooks and consumer behaviors moving forward.

The U.S. government, Federal Reserve and other legislative and regulatory bodies continue to take a variety ofhave taken certain actions to support the economy and capital markets, influence interest rates, stabilizeinfluence housing markets and mortgage servicing and provide liquidity to promote economic growth. These include various mortgage restructuring programs

implemented or under consideration by the GSEs, lenders, servicers and the U.S. government. Outside of the United States, various governments previously took actions to stimulate economies, stabilize financial systems and improve market liquidity. In general,aggregate, these actions have positively affectedhad a positive effect in the short term on these countries and their markets; however, there can be no assurance as to the future level of impact these types of any of these actions may have on the economic and financial markets, including levels of volatility. A delayed economic recovery period, or a U.S. or global recessionaryrecession or debtregional or global financial crisis setback could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We evaluatemanage our product offerings, investment and asset-liability management strategies to moderate risk especially during periods of strained economic and financial market conditions. In addition, we continue to review our product and distribution management strategies to align with our strengths, profitability targets and risk tolerance. These and other company actions should enhance our competitive position as well as our capital flexibility and liquidity.

Volatility in creditCredit and investment markets. DuringThe tone of the market improved during the first quarter of 2011, markets were characterized by rising volatility2012. Signs of an improving U.S. economy, continued emerging market growth and solidification of supportive European Central Bank policies and actions led to greater market confidence and a generally tightening spread environment versus the latter part of 2011. Spreads on U.S. and European financial issues tightened, given U.S. bank stress-testing, positive policy and macro-economic developments globally, and limited new issuance in the U.S. Treasurysector. Corporate deal flow outside of the financial sector was very strong during the first quarter of 2012 as issuers took advantage of low treasury rates and a receptive market, due to external eventsalthough dealer inventories remained low. Demand and deal flow in Europe, North Africathe structured product market was also strong. Towards the end of the first quarter of 2012, however, as Portuguese and the Middle East and due to the earthquake in Japan. Credit spreads were generally less volatile and ended the quarter tighter. Macroeconomic conditions, improving company fundamentals, declining corporateSpanish credit default rates, reduced net supply of spread product and continued strong investor demand drove the tightening in both credit and securitized products. Fears regarding systemic risk were largely contained this quarter, despite European sovereign concerns and political instability in North Africa and the Middle East. For securitized products, the market continuedwidening gained focus, we began to see shrinking supply,some decline in demand and retracement of spreads, particularly in global financial companies.

We recorded net other-than-temporary impairments of $17 million during the first quarter of 2012, which were lower than 2011 levels and we expect losses to moderate further from prior year levels. Even though issuance did improve in commercial mortgage-backed securities. Asset valuations in securitized sectors continued to improve given a strong supply and demand imbalance, stable credit performance and the structural protections embedded in the transactions brought to market.certain

Certain

segments of the marketplace are still experiencing declines in the performance of collateral underlying certain structured securities, but impairments of structured securities in our investment portfolio remained consistent with the moderate levels recorded in the third and fourth quarters of 2010. We recorded net other-than-temporary impairments of $36 milliondeclined further in the first quarter of 2012 from the 2011 which were lower than prior year levels and we expect losses to moderate further.levels. Although economic conditions may continue to negatively impact certain investment valuations, the underlying collateral associated with our securities that have not been impaired continues to perform.

Looking ahead, we believe that the current credit environment provides us with opportunities to invest across a variety of asset classes to meet our yield requirements, as well as to continue execution of various risk management disciplines involving further diversification within the investment portfolio. See “—Investments and Derivative Instruments” for additional information on our investment portfolio.

Trends and conditions affecting our segments

Retirement and ProtectionU.S. Life Insurance

Life insurance. Results of our life insurance business are impacted by sales, mortality, persistency, investment yields, expenses, reinsurance and statutory reserve requirements. Additionally, sales of our products and persistency of our insurance in-force are dependent on competitive product features and pricing, underwriting, effective distribution and customer service.

Life insurance sales increased in the first half of 2010 in part due to strong adoption of our new term universal life insurance product and remained stable through the second half of 2010 and intoduring the first quarter of 2012 compared to 2011 withfrom sales of our term universal and universal life insurance product up 29%products. Sales of our term universal and universal life insurance products increased 3% and 7%, respectively, in the first quarter of 20112012 versus the traditional term and term universal life insurance salessame period in the prior year. We believeDue to the low interest rate environment and to maintain our termdesired mix of business, we have raised prices on certain products and exited others. Therefore, we expect reduced sales levels during 2012. Shifts in consumer demand, relative pricing, return on capital or reinsurance decisions and other factors, such as regulatory matters affecting universal life insurance product offers a better value proposition to the consumer when compared topolicies with secondary guarantees, could also affect our traditional term life insurance products which we no longer sell. Based on recent sales trends, we believe our term universal life insurance product is competitively priced for the middlelevels.

Throughout 2011 and emerging affluent markets. Throughout 2010 and into 2011,beginning in 2012, we experienced favorable mortality results in our term life insurance products as compared to priced

mortality assumptions. Additionally,During this same period, while less severe in the first quarter of 2011 than in prior quarters,years, we have experienced lower persistency as compared to pricing assumptions for 10-year term life insurance policies written in 1999 and 2000 as they go through their post-level rate period. We expect this trend in persistency to continue as these 10-year term life insurance policies go through their post-level rate period and then moderate thereafter.

Regulations XXX and AXXX require insurers to establish additional statutory reserves for term life insurance policies with long-term premium guarantees and for certain universal life insurance policies with secondary guarantees. This increases the capital required to write these products beyond economic requirements. The alternatives available to reduce the impact for the increased reserve requirements on some of our in-force books of business have over time become limited and more expensive.products. Despite this, committed funding sources are in place for approximately 95% of our anticipated peak level reserves required under Regulations XXX and AXXX. The alternatives available to finance the increased reserve requirements on some of our in-force books of business have over time become limited or more expensive.

Recently, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) formed a Joint Working Group to review the statutory reserve requirements of Regulation AXXX impacting certain universal life insurance policies with secondary guarantees. In March 2012, the NAIC adopted a framework to address these reserving issues, and thereforesubsequently retained an actuarial consultant to help resolve the framework’s proposal for addressing in-force business and business that will be written in an interim period until the adoption of a principles-based reserve (“PBR”) approach. While it is too early to assess the magnitude the framework will have on future reserving requirements, we believe unfunded reserve exposure is minimal.expect changes to such requirements that will impact future sales and product design industry-wide.

Long-term care insurance. Results of our long-term care insurance business are influenced by sales, morbidity, mortality, persistency, investment yields, new product sales, expenses and reinsurance as well asreinsurance. Additionally, sales of our products are impacted by the relative competitiveness of our offerings.offerings based on product features and pricing, including our ability to implement future rate actions as deemed necessary.

In recent years, industry-wideIndustry-wide first-year annualized premiums of long-term care insurance declined during the recession and rebounded beginning in 2010 as the economy stabilized. This positive trend continued during the first quarter of 2011.Industry sales grew 4% in 2011 compared to 2010. Sales of our individual long-term care product have increased 48%moderated in the first quarter of 20112012 and as a result, our sales decreased versus the prior year due in part to growth in the market and competitor actions combined with the impacts of the progress made on multiple growth initiatives relating to distribution effectiveness and broadening of our individual and group offerings.

We expect sales to continue to moderate throughout 2012 with sales levels impacted by shifts in consumer demand, relative pricing, pricing of next generation products, return on capital and reinsurance decisions and other factors.

Wealth management.Fixed annuities.Results of our wealth management business are impacted by the demand for asset management products and related support services, investment performance and equity market conditions.

The equity and fixed income market improvements since the second quarter of 2009, our introduction of new investment strategies, the expansion of products and services we offer to our advisors and an increase in the

number of advisors that do business with us collectively contributed to our higher sales, net flows and assets under management. Depending upon the direction of equity and fixed income markets in the future, we could see a correlated impact on sales, net flows and assets under management.

On December 31, 2010, we purchased the operating assets of Altegris Capital, LLC (“Altegris”). This acquisition provided a platform of alternative investments including hedge funds and managed futures products and had approximately $2.2 billion in client assets as of December 31, 2010.

Retirement income.Results of our retirement incomeannuities business are affected by investment performance, interest rate levels, slope of the interest rate yield curve, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality, policyholder lapses,surrenders, new product sales and relative competitiveness of our offerings. Our competitive position within many of our distribution channels and our ability to grow this business depends on many factors, including product offerings and company ratings. Our product offerings include current and minimum crediting rates on our spread-based products and surrender charges. Guaranteed benefit features of our in-force variable annuity products provide guaranteed death or living benefits to the consumer.relative pricing.

Refinements of product offerings and related pricing and investment strategies reflect targeted growth plans to achieve appropriate risk adjusted returns.

International

International mortgage insurance.Results of our international mortgage insurance business are affected by changes in regulatory environments, employment levels and other economic and housing market trends, including interest rate trends, home price appreciation, mortgage origination volume, levels of mortgage delinquencies and movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

Canada and Australia comprise approximately 97% of our international mortgage insurance risk in-force with an estimated average effective loan-to-value ratio of 62% as of March 31, 2011. We expect that these established markets will continue to be key drivers of revenues and earnings in our international mortgage insurance business. Our entry and growth in developing international markets will remain selective and disciplined.

During 2010, we continued to observe increased stability in international housing markets, particularly in Canada and Australia, as the economic recovery which began in 2009 gained momentum. As a result of improving economic and employment outlooks, relatively low mortgage rates, improved housing affordability

and consumer confidence, home sales activity remained strong and home prices increased at the start of 2010 in these two markets. During the second half of 2010, home price appreciation moderated after a sustained period of growth. During the first quarter of 2011, home prices increased modestly in Canada2012 moderated as we continued our disciplined approach to product pricing and remained relatively flat in Australia. Duringrisk management. We expect moderate sales growth during the remainder of 2011, we expect home prices to remain consistent with current levels in both Canada and Australia. Additionally, we observed a decline in unemployment rates in these two markets during 2010 with rates remaining fairly stable during the first quarter of 2011. However, in Australia, with the combined impact of higher mortgage interest rates, increases in the cost of living and January flooding, the Queensland economy is pressured which could adversely impact our results of operations.

In many of our European mortgage insurance markets, we have observed early signs of stabilization as unemployment rates appear to be peaking and declines in home prices have moderated. The overall economic environment in Europe, however, continues to be dominated by concerns about the fiscal health of the region, which has created uncertainty about the timing and speed of economic recovery.

Since the beginning of 2010, the Bank of Canada increased the overnight rate by 75 basis points to 1.0% and we expect the Bank of Canada to maintain the overnight rate at current levels at least through the first half of 2011. In Australia, as a sign of the relative health and stability of that economy, the Reserve Bank of Australia increased the cash rate by 175 basis points to 4.75% between September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2011. We also expect the Reserve Bank of Australia to maintain the cash rate at current levels through the first half of 2011.

In Canada, we experienced higher than anticipated levels of flow new insurance written during 2010. A low mortgage interest rate environment in 2010 and improved consumer confidence contributed to these higher levels. During the first quarter of 2011, favorable economic conditions persisted with housing affordability benefiting from low interest rates and historically low unemployment levels. As of March 31, 2011, our 2010 book of business represents 12% of our insurance in-force while our 2007 and 2008 book years, the two largest in our portfolio, together represent 33% of our insurance in-force. As a result of our large 2007 and 2008 book years and subsequent smaller books seasoning during 2011, earned premiums in Canada are expected to decline moderately relative to 2010 levels. In January 2011, the Canadian government announced new mortgage rules that became effective in March and April of 2011. These changes may reduce the amount of net premiums written in 2011. This decline may be offset by modest growth in flow new insurance written in 2011 if economic conditions in Canada continue to be favorable and we are able to continue to gradually increase our market share.

In Australia, total mortgage market activity slowed during 2010 as the incremental government stimulus and incentives for first-time homebuyers implemented during the economic downturn were eliminated. Additionally, high loan-to-value mortgage originations, particularly above 90% loan-to-value, declined significantly in 2010 as banks allocated less capital to high loan-to-value lending and consumers became cautious of rising personal debt levels. This trend continued during the first quarter of 2011. These factors, combined with increased interest rates beginning in the fourth quarter of 2009, led to a decrease in mortgage originations and an associated decrease in our flow new insurance written during 2010 compared to 2009 levels. Our flow new insurance written further decreased during the first quarter of 2011 compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 reflecting smaller mortgage originations market as well as the economic impact of recent natural disasters. For the remainder of 2011, we expect flow new insurance written to remain flat compared to 2010 levels.

Over the past two years, we significantly expanded our focus on, and the resources devoted to, loss mitigation initiatives, including programs that actively partner with our lenders to find solutions that cure delinquencies through actions such as loan modifications that keep borrowers in their homes, asset management strategies such as arranged and facilitated sales and pursuing recoveries. Loan modification programs benefit all parties as borrowers are able to remain in their homes, lenders maintain their relationship with the borrower and an earning asset, and we mitigate claim payments under the terms of our mortgage insurance policies. Additionally, in cases where no solution is found to cure the delinquency and keep the borrower in their home, we are actively partnering with our lenders to optimize the transition process, including taking early possession of properties, and mitigate claim payments. As a result of our expanded focus, there was an increase in the

number of loans subject to our loss mitigation initiatives, which had a favorable impact on our results of operations. We have also seen improvements in our total losses as economies continue to improve, home price appreciation transitions to a stable rate of growth and unemployment levels decline. With ongoing improvement in the Canadian and Australian economies and stable housing markets, as well as the success we are experiencing with our loss mitigation initiatives outlined above, we expect our overall loss levels to improve modestly over time compared with levels experienced in 2010. These loss levels will vary quarterly based on seasonal or event-driven fluctuations.2012.

Lifestyle protection insurance.International Protection

Growth and performance of our lifestyle protection insurance business is dependent in part on economic conditions and other factors, including consumer lending and spending levels, unemployment trends, client

account penetration and mortality and morbidity trends. Additionally, the types and mix of our products will vary based on regulatory and consumer acceptance of our products.

The profitability of our lifestyle protection insurance business improveddeclined during 2010 and in the first quarter of 2011 and has been2012 driven by lower new premiums, higher new claim registrations from stabilizing European unemployment levels and the impact of our policy re-pricing and distribution contract restructuring initiatives.lower but still favorable claim reserve adjustments while claim payments remained at a consistent level. Premiums declined driven by lower consumer lending levels. Sales during 2010the first quarter of 2012 decreased primarily in Southern Europe, most notably in Italy, mainly as a result of stagnating economies across Europe, which resulted in a decline in consumer lending where most of our insurance coverages attach as banks tightened lending criteria and consumer demand declined. Sales in the first quarter of 2011 remained consistent with the fourth quarter of 2010 levels. We are actively pursuing various growthtargeted initiatives to expand ourincrease sales in existing markets, with focus on distribution channelsexpansion, selective new client acquisition and optimizing our product offerings which have begun to help to mitigate lower consumer lending levels.portfolio. Additionally, we are looking at initiatives in select new markets such as South America and Asia. However, depending on the severity and length of these conditions, we could experience additional declines in sales or the inabilityand ability to generate targeted growth in new sales.

New claim registrations on unemployment-related policiesincreased in the first quarter of 2012 from the fourth quarter of 2011 but declined throughout 2010from the first quarter of 2011. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2011 was due to a worsening economy in a number of European markets. This, coupled with lower premiums, resulted in an increase in our loss ratio in the first quarter of 2012 from the fourth quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2011 and are at2011. We could see further increases in losses if claim registrations continue to increase.

Consumer lending levels remain challenged particularly given concerns regarding the lowest levels since the third quarter of 2008. This, combined with stabilizing claim durations, has led to a decrease in our loss ratio. The improvement in our loss ratio has been most notable in the Nordic and Western Europe regions. We expect unemploymentEuropean debt crisis. Unemployment rates in Europe to slowly decline overtrended upwards slightly during the next several quartersfirst quarter of 2012 with regional variation. Additionally, we expect slow but positiveexperienced negative European gross domestic product growth which could positively impact consumer lending demand as well as reduce claim pressures through new job creation.in the first quarter of 2012.

With most of these contract restructuring projects complete, weWe are focusing on increasingsupporting sales strategies through improvedexpansion into select new markets, targeted product offerings and expandedenhanced distribution channels.capabilities. We expect these strategiesefforts, along with sound risk and cost management disciplines, to continue tomaintain or improve profitability and help to offset the impact of continued high unemploymenteconomic or employment pressures as well as lower levels of consumer lending.

Wealth Management

Results of our wealth management business are impacted by the demand for asset management products and related support services, investment performance and equity market conditions.

Net flows in the first quarter of 2012 were negative primarily related to the movement of a legacy block of managed accounts and from prior year relative fund performance. To partially offset this negative trend, we have introduced new investment strategies and expanded service offerings to increase the number of advisors that do business with us. Depending upon the direction of equity and fixed-income markets in the future, we could see either positive or negative impacts on sales, net flows and assets under management.

On April 2, 2012, we completed the sale of our tax and accounting financial advisor unit, Genworth Financial Investment Services (“GFIS”), for approximately $79 million, plus an earnout provision, to Cetera Financial Group. The earnout provides the opportunity for us to receive additional future compensation based on achieving certain revenue goals. We expect to recognize a realized gain of approximately $15 million related to the sale.

International Mortgage Insurance

Results of our international mortgage insurance business are affected by changes in regulatory environments, employment levels, consumer borrowing behavior, lender mortgage-related strategies, including lender servicing practices, and other economic and housing market influences, including interest rate trends, home price appreciation or depreciation, mortgage origination volume, levels of mortgage delinquencies and movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

Canada and Australia comprise approximately 98% of our international mortgage insurance primary risk in-force with an estimated average effective loan-to-value ratio of 57%. We expect that these established markets will continue to be key drivers of revenues and earnings in our international mortgage insurance business. Our participation or entry in other international markets will remain selective and disciplined.

In Canada, during 2011 and into 2012, favorable economic conditions persisted with housing affordability benefiting from low interest rates and income and employment growth. Since September 2010, the Bank of Canada has maintained the overnight rate at 1.0% and we expect this rate to be maintained near this level throughout 2012. The unemployment rate in Canada has gradually decreased during the last two years and also decreased slightly in the first quarter of 2012 from the rate at the end of 2011. We expect the unemployment rate to remain near current levels throughout 2012. Additionally, average home prices have remained stable after increasing modestly during the first half of 2011. Average home prices increased slightly during the first quarter of 2012 and we expect prices to remain stable throughout 2012 as a balanced housing market persists.

In January 2011, the Canadian government announced new mortgage rules that became effective in March and April of 2011. These changes reduced the amount of flow new insurance written in 2011 compared to 2010 levels primarily due to a smaller market, particularly for high loan-to-value refinance transactions, which was partially offset by improved market penetration. During the first quarter of 2012, flow new insurance written remained lower than the fourth quarter of 2011 primarily from a decrease in the size of the high loan-to-value market and seasonal factors, which were partially offset by a slight improvement in our market penetration. We expect our level of flow new insurance written in 2012 to increase modestly from the 2011 levels with the expectation of a stronger mortgage originations market during the second and third quarters of 2012. As of March 31, 2012, our 2010 and 2011 books of business represent 21% of our insurance in-force while our 2007 and 2008 book years, the two largest in our portfolio, together represent 28% of our insurance in-force. As our large 2007 and 2008 book years mature past their peak earnings period and subsequent smaller books season during 2012, earned premiums in Canada are expected to decline modestly in 2012 compared to 2011.

During 2011, losses in Canada increased from levels experienced during 2010 despite improving overall economic conditions and stable housing markets. While the total number of delinquencies decreased during 2011, and we continued to realize benefits from our loss mitigation activities, overall losses increased as a result of higher severity on older books, particularly from Alberta. In Alberta, the economy and housing market have not recovered to pre-recession levels, driving increased severity, although conditions began to improve during the second half of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, losses were lower compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 as both the total number of delinquencies and the proportion of net new delinquencies from Alberta continued to decline. These improvements were partially offset by increased severity on existing delinquencies. We expect our overall loss levels in Canada to improve moderately through the remainder of 2012, although loss levels may vary quarterly based on seasonal or event-driven fluctuations.

In June 2011, the Canadian government passed legislation, that when effective, will formalize existing mortgage insurance arrangements with private mortgage insurers and terminate the existing agreement with the Canadian government, including the elimination of the Canadian government guarantee fund. This legislation does not change the current government guarantee of 90% provided on mortgages we insure. We do not anticipate any significant impacts to our business as a result of this legislation, however, a full assessment of the impact on our business cannot be completed until the regulations are finalized.

In Australia, economic growth slowed during 2011 and into 2012 given the economic impact of pressures from higher interest rates, higher costs of living, higher exchange rates and cautious consumer spending. This was particularly the case in coastal tourism areas of Queensland where these pressures were exacerbated by the flooding in January 2011. The overall housing market in Australia remained flat during the first quarter of 2012 after experiencing some modest home price declines in 2011. On a regional basis, variations were more pronounced, especially in Queensland and Western Australia where average home prices declined 6% and 4%, respectively, in 2011. We expect average national home prices to remain near current levels throughout 2012.

Unemployment levels increased slightly during 2011 and remained unchanged during the first quarter of 2012. We expect a modest increase during the remainder of 2012. In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Reserve Bank of Australia lowered the cash rate from 4.75% to 4.25%, in two separate decisions, which had remained unchanged since December 2010. The Reserve Bank of Australia maintained the cash rate during the first quarter of 2012; however, effective May 2, 2012, the Reserve Bank of Australia reduced the cash rate by 50 basis points to 3.75% as Australian and global economic conditions have been somewhat weaker than expected.

Total mortgage market activity in Australia continued to slow during the first half 2011 as consumers became more cautious about higher interest rates and global economic uncertainty together with the economic impact of natural disasters. Additionally, some lenders were slow to return to the high loan-to-value market. These factors resulted in a smaller high loan-to-value mortgage originations market. During the second half of 2011, total mortgage market activity began to increase driven by first-time home buyers and higher refinance transactions reflecting modestly improving consumer confidence and stable to declining interest rates from rate decreases in the fourth quarter of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, flow new insurance written declined modestly from the fourth quarter of 2011 primarily from a smaller mortgage originations market as a result of the expiration of certain first-time home buyer concessions offered by local governments and seasonal factors. We expect our level of flow new insurance written in 2012 to be similar to 2011 levels. As of March 31, 2012, our 2010 and 2011 books of business represented 19% of our insurance in-force while our 2007, 2008 and 2009 book years, the three largest in our portfolio, together represented 36% of our insurance in-force. We expect the pressure on our earned premiums, as the large 2007 to 2009 book years mature past their peak earnings period and subsequent smaller books season during 2012, to be largely offset by higher net premiums written based on a higher loan-to-value mix and pricing actions during the second half of 2012. Therefore, we anticipate earned premiums during 2012 to remain similar to 2011.

During 2011, losses began to increase following an improvement during 2010. This was mainly driven by higher interest rates, lower retail spending and higher reserves for claims anticipated from the natural disasters in early 2011, particularly the flooding in Queensland. As a result, there was an increase in the number of outstanding delinquencies and reserves as the cumulative impact of the factors noted previously exerted pressure on elements of the portfolio. Overall delinquencies and the delinquency rate peaked during the third quarter of 2011 and trended downward during the fourth quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2012 but still remain above the level experienced at the start of 2011. This improvement was broad based across most regions, including Queensland. During the second half of 2011, we increased the intensity of our efforts to work with lenders to accelerate the processing of older delinquencies through to resolution. The extent of the rate of conversion from later stage delinquency to claim and higher average paid claim amounts during the first quarter of 2012 led to higher losses than previously anticipated. We now expect to see the higher rate of conversion to claim and average paid claims to continue for the near term. The higher losses were most pronounced in sub-segments of the Queensland region, whose economy has been pressured, as well as our 2007 and 2008 vintages which have higher concentrations of self-employed borrowers. We strengthened loss reserves by $82 million during the first quarter of 2012 to reflect the adverse change in frequency and severity experience that emerged during the current quarter. The reserve strengthening recognizes that we expect to see an elevated number of claims paid and higher average claim amounts continue into at least the second quarter of 2012 before beginning to moderate in the second half of 2012.

On April 17, 2012, we announced a new timeframe for completing our planned minority IPO of up to 40% of our Australian mortgage insurance business, which was originally expected to occur during 2012. We are now targeting completion of the IPO in early 2013, subject to market conditions, valuation considerations including business performance in Australia, and regulatory approvals. On April 20, 2012, Moody’s Investors Service placed our Australian mortgage insurance business on review for possible downgrade following our announcement regarding an anticipated net operating loss in this business in the first quarter of 2012 as a result of the elevated loss experience and higher claims incidence and severity. See “Risk Factors—A downgrade or a potential downgrade in our financial strength or credit ratings could result in a loss of business and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations” in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on February 27, 2012.

During 2011 and into 2012, the overall economic environment in Europe continued to be dominated by concerns about the fiscal health of the region, which has created uncertainty about the timing and speed of economic recovery. While regional differences exist, the overall business climate and the economic growth outlook in Europe remain pressured from the combination of persistent high unemployment rates and low business and consumer confidence. As a result, we have seen increasing delinquencies and lower cures driven by prolonged economic stress, most notably in Ireland, contributing to increased loss reserves in our European mortgage insurance business, which we expect to continue through 2012. Specifically in Ireland, which represents less than 1% of our international primary risk in-force, we experienced increasing delinquencies and reserves in the second half of 2011 and during the first quarter of 2012 driven by prolonged economic and housing market stress and we expect this to continue during 2012. We are actively working with lenders and have significantly reduced our exposure and new business volumes from certain regions as we seek opportunities to manage and mitigate our risk profile in Europe.

Over the past several years, our global loss mitigation operations have enhanced both their capabilities and resources devoted to finding solutions that cure delinquencies and help to keep borrowers in their homes. These efforts include lender mortgage-related strategies, such as loan modification programs designed to help borrowers maintain mortgage payments while they are experiencing personal hardships. These programs allow lenders to maintain their relationship with a borrower while retaining an interest earning asset. In addition, we have developed asset management strategies designed to efficiently dispose of properties when a borrower’s hardship cannot be cured. Such efforts include actively partnering with the lender and borrower to optimize the transition process and taking early possession of properties to mitigate claim payments. As a result, our loss mitigation activities have had a favorable impact on our financial results as well as our relationships in the marketplace.

U.S. Mortgage Insurance

Results of our U.S. mortgage insurance business are affected by unemployment, underemployment and other economic and housing market trends, interest rates, home prices, mortgage origination volume mix and practices, the levels and aging of mortgage delinquencies including seasonal variations, the inventory of unsold homes and lender modification and other servicing efforts. These economic and housing market trends are continuing to be adversely affected by ongoing weakness in the domestic economy and related levels of unemployment.unemployment and underemployment. This has resulted in numerous outcomes including rising foreclosures, more borrowers seeking loan modifications and elevated housing inventories which placecontributed to the downward pressure on home values. At the same time, home prices are continuing to show signs of stabilizing or improving in several U.S. markets after a significant decline from their peak levels. Overall, we anticipate additional declines in home values during 2011 andthrough mid-2012, with a gradual increase thereafter. At the same time, we also expect unemployment and underemployment levels to stabilize at elevated levels and gradually declinedecrease over time though remain elevated for an extended period.

During 2010,Over recent periods, the convergence of a weak housing market, tightened lending standards, the lack of consumer confidence and the lack of liquidity in some mortgage securitization markets, along with volatility in mortgage interest rates,

continued converged to drive a smaller mortgage origination market. Within the private mortgage insurance market, over recent periods the mortgage insurance penetration rate and overall market size was driven down by growth in Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) originations, associated with multiple pricing, underwriting and loan size factors, and the negative impact of GSE market fees and loan level pricing which made private mortgage insurance solutions less competitive with the FHA solution. Givensolutions. However, given ongoing FHA risk management actions, we have seensaw the private mortgage insurance penetration rate increase somewhatslightly in the firstfourth quarter of 2011, and while we expect this to continue given the additional FHA pricing changes effective in April 2011.2011, the private mortgage insurance penetration rate slowed in the first quarter of 2012. This increase has been mitigated in part by increased GSE loan level fees which can make private mortgage insurance less attractive. Going forward, further feesGSE fee increases could limit the demand for or competitiveness of private mortgage insurance. Considering both of these trends, we believe the industry continues tocan expect to regain market share over time. In November 2011, federal legislation was enacted that extended the authority of the FHA to insure loans with initial balances in amounts up to 125% of median area home prices of up to and including $729,750. With this

new legislation in place, the FHA now has higher loan limits than do the GSEs in certain metropolitan statistical areas. Accordingly, this could give the FHA a competitive advantage over private mortgage insurance providers. The mortgage insurance industry level of market penetration and eventual market size will continue to be affected by any actions taken by the GSEs, the FHA or the U.S. government impacting housing or housing finance policy, underwriting standards or related reforms. The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 provided for changes to, among other things, the regulatory authority and oversight of the GSEs and the authority of the FHA including with respect to premium pricing, maximum loan limits and down payment requirements. In addition, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac remain the largest purchasers and guarantors of mortgage loans in the United States.

Although the overall insured market size is expected to be larger compared to the prior year, our U.S. mortgage insurance market share declined slightly in the first quarter of 2012 driven by the impact of competitor pricing and underwriting guidelines. We expect these market levels to hold through 2012. Meanwhile, we continue to manage the quality of new business through prudent underwriting guidelines, which we modify from time to time when circumstances warrant. We also expect to continue realizing the benefit of previously implemented rate increases along with other pricing-related actions. In addition, we regularly monitor competitor pricing and underwriting changes and their potential market impact.

While we are currently experiencingcontinue to experience a decrease in the level of new delinquencies, overall pressure on the housing market continues to adversely affect the performance of our portfolio, particularly our 2005, 2006, 2007 and first half of 2008 book years that we believe peaked in their delinquency development during the first quarter of 2010. DelinquenciesAlbeit at a lower rate, delinquencies for these book years continue to drive the level of new delinquencies being reported. While the impact was originally concentrated in certain states and alternative product types, during the last few years, the impact has shifted to more traditional products reflecting the elevated unemployment and underemployment levels throughout the country.United States. Beginning mid-2010, we saw an increase in foreclosure starts as well as an increase in our paid claims as late stage delinquency loans go through foreclosure. We expect this trendIn addition, we saw wide ranges in performance among loan servicers regarding the ability to continue at least throughmodify loans. While these trends continued, both the secondlevels of foreclosure starts and paid claims declined in 2011 and in the first quarter of 2011.2012 from elevated levels seen a year ago. Suspensions and delays of foreclosure actions in response to problems associated with lender and servicer foreclosure process changes and defects have caused, and could further cause, claim payments to be deferred to later periods and potentially have an adverse impact on the timing of a recovery of the U.S. residential mortgage market. Several major servicers reached agreement in principle in February 2012 with the U.S. Department of Justice, various federal agencies and 49 state attorneys general on origination and servicing practices, and this could affect timelines for claims submissions or administration actions. The effect on us of this agreement is uncertain at this time.

The recent stabilization of home prices and unemployment levels in certain markets, expandedExpanded efforts in the mortgage lending market to modify loans and improved performance of our second half of 2008 and the 2009 and 2010 book years compared with the performance of prior book years, resulted in a decreasecontinued reductions in delinquenciesdelinquency levels during the first quarter of 2011. This decrease reflected a reduction in new delinquencies combined with a higher number of paid claims and increased cures from government and lender2012. However, loan modification programsefforts remained challenged and other loss mitigation activities through the first half of 2010. However, aging of delinquencies continued to increase through the remainder of 20102011 and through the first quarter of 2011;2012; moreover, both foreclosures continued increasing and liquidations remained elevated through the same period, thereby resulting in higherongoing elevated levels of loss reserves and claims. If employment levels remain pressured, home values experience further decline, credit remains tight andor interest rates increase, the ability to cure a delinquent loan could be more difficult to achieve. In addition, while we continue to execute on our loan modification strategy, during 2011 and through the first quarter of 2011,2012, we have seen the level of loan modification actions remain consistent withmoderating against the levellevels we experienced during the fourth quarter of 2010. We also saw evidence of low levels of modification activity outside of government programs and servicers distracted by various regulatory and legal actions. Further reduction of loan modifications would have an adverse impact on the ability of borrowers to cure a delinquent loan.

Our loss mitigation activities, including those relating to workouts, loan modifications, pre-sales, rescissions, claims administration (including curtailment of claim amounts) and targeted settlements, net of reinstatements, which occurred during the first quarter of 2011three months ended March 31, 2012 resulted in a reduction of expected losses of $122$158 million compared to $233$122 million induring the first quarter of 2010.three months ended March 31, 2011.

Workouts and loan modifications, which related to loans representing 1% of our primary risk in-force as of March 31, 2011,2012, and occurred during the period then ended, resulted in a reduction of expected losses during the three months ended March 31, 2012 of $94$92 million compared to $113$94 million induring the first quarter of 2010.three months ended March 31, 2011. Our workout and loan modification programs with various lenders and servicers are designed to help borrowers in default regain current repayment status on their mortgage loans, which ultimately allowed many of these borrowers to remain in their homes. During the first quarter of 2011, we executed loan restructurings and modifications with our lender partners that resulted in reduced monthly mortgage loan repayment amounts through reductions of the underlying loans’ interest rates or debt forgiveness by lenders, or through a lengthening of the loans’ principal amortization period, or through some combination thereof. The loans that are subject to workouts and loan modifications that were completed could be subject to potential re-default by the underlying borrower at some future date. However, such borrower re-defaults currently remain stable at anticipated levels. In addition, pre-sales, claims administration and other non-cure workouts that occurred during the first quarter of 2011three months ended March 31, 2012 resulted in a reduction of expected losses of $17$60 million compared to $13$17 million that occurred during the first quarter of 2010.three months ended March 31, 2011.

As a result of investigation activities on certain insured delinquent loans, we found certainsome levels of misrepresentation and non-compliance with specific terms and conditions of our underlying master insurance policies, as well as fraud. These findings separately resulted in rescission actions that occurred during the first quarter of 2011three months ended March 31, 2012 which reduced our expected losses at the time of rescission by $11$6 million compared to $107$11 million that occurred during the first quarter of 2010.three months ended March 31, 2011. We expect limited benefit from rescission actions in future periods.

DuringSince 2010, benefits from loss mitigation activities began shiftinghave shifted from rescissions to loan modifications and reviews of loan servicing and claims administration compliance where we expect a majority of our loss mitigation benefits to be achieved going forward. While we expect to continue evaluating compliance of the insured or its loan servicer with respect to its servicing obligations under our master policy for loans insured thereunder and may curtail claim amounts payable based on our evaluations of such compliance, we cannot give assurance on the extent or level at which such claim curtailments will continue. Although loan servicers continue to pursue a wide range of approaches to execute appropriate loan modifications, government-sponsored programs such as Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”) continue to decline as alternative programs have begun to gain momentum. With lower benefits from government-sponsored programs and the limited impact from alternative programs to date, we have experienced higher levels of loss reserves and/or paid claims. On February 1, 2012, the Obama Administration announced that it would extend HAMP for one year until December 31, 2013, and expand borrower eligibility by loosening certain underwriting requirements. In addition, incentives paid to the owner of a loan that qualifies for principal reduction under HAMP are being increased and, for the first time, will be offered to the GSEs. There can be no assurance that these changes will increase the number of loans that are modified under HAMP, including mortgage loans we insure currently, or that any such modifications will succeed in avoiding foreclosure. Depending upon the mix of loss mitigation activity, market trends, and employment levels in future periods and other general economic impacts which influence the U.S. residential housing market, we could see additional adverse loss reserve changesdevelopment going forward. We expect the primary source of new reserves and losses to come from new delinquencies.

We also participate in reinsurance programs in which we share portions of our premiums associated with flow insurance written on loans originated or purchased by lenders with captive insurance entities of these lenders in exchange for an agreed upon level of loss coverage above a specified attachment point. For the three months ended March 31, 2011,2012, we recorded reinsurance recoveries of $21$14 million where cumulative losses have exceeded the attachment points in captive reinsurance arrangements, primarily related to our 2005, 2006, 2007 and2004 through 2008 book years. We have exhausted certain captive reinsurance tiers for these book years based on loss development trends. OnceWhile we continue to receive cash benefit from these captive arrangements at the time of claim payment, this level of benefit is expected to decline going forward as more captive reinsurance or trusttrusts’ assets are being exhausted we are responsible for additional losses incurred. We have begun to experience constraints on the recognition of captive benefit recovery due to the amount of funds held in certain captive trusts and the exhaustion of captive loss tiers for certain reinsurers. As of January 1, 2009, we no longer enter into excess loss of captive reinsurance transactions and, therefore, only participate in quota share reinsurance arrangements.at a faster rate. The majority of our excess of loss captive reinsurance arrangements are in runoff with no new books of business being added going forward; however, we will continue to benefit from captive reinsurance on our 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 book years.forward.

As of March 31, 2011, Genworth Mortgage Insurance Corporation (“GEMICO”) exceeded, our primary U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, continues to exceed the maximum risk-to-capital requirementratio of 25:1.1 established under North Carolina law and enforced

by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”), which is GEMICO’s domestic insurance regulator. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, GEMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio was approximately 33.4:1 and 32.9:1, respectively. Over at least the next several quarters, we expect GEMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio to continue to increase. The amount of such increases will depend principally on the magnitude of future losses incurred by GEMICO, the effectiveness of ongoing loss mitigation activities and the amount of additional capital that is authorizedgenerated within the business or capital support (if any) that we provide. Our estimate of the amount and continuestiming of future losses is inherently uncertain, requires significant judgment and may change significantly over time.

Effective January 31, 2011, the NCDOI granted GEMICO a revocable two-year waiver of compliance with its risk-to-capital requirement. The waiver, which the NCDOI can modify or terminate at any time in its discretion, gives GEMICO the ability to continue to write new business in North Carolina under a revocable two-yearduring the period covered by the waiver, notwithstanding that GEMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio exceeds 25:1. Thirty-four of that state’s maximum 25:1the states in which GEMICO operates do not impose their own risk-to-capital requirement limitation, which the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”) approved in a letter dated January 31, 2011. By extension,requirements; consequently, GEMICO also remains authorized and continuesis permitted to continue to write business in 34 additionalthose states that do not have a maximumso long as it is permitted to write business in North Carolina. Sixteen states (including North Carolina) impose their own risk-to-capital requirement. Ten additionalrequirements. Of these 16 states, have12 granted GEMICOrevocable waivers (or the authorityequivalent) of their risk-to-capital requirements to allow GEMICO to continue to write new business, by a waiver (or other communication) regarding their relative state’salthough two such waivers no longer were in effect as of March 31, 2012 due to the imposition of alternative risk-to-capital requirements, subjectlimitations contained in these two waivers when they were granted to varying terms and conditions. Consequently,GEMICO. Even though GEMICO’s risk-to-capital ratio exceeded 25:1, GEMICO isremains authorized to write new business in 4544 states as of March 31, 2012, pursuant to revocable waivers or the equivalent issued by applicable states where necessary and with the approval of the GSEs.

New insurance written in North Carolina and in the 34 states which do not impose their own risk-to-capital requirements represented approximately 50% and 47%, respectively, of our total new insurance written for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. While we continue to seek this regulatory flexibility through additionalNew insurance written in the other nine states that have granted revocable waivers (or the equivalent) of their risk-to-capital requirements represented approximately 35% and 29%, respectively, of total new insurance written for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

With the approval of state waivers,insurance regulators in the six remaining states where available, we expect to manage our capital and business operations so as

to maintain capacityGEMICO is not authorized to write new profitable business. Currently,business and the GSEs, we utilize another onebegan writing new business through GRMAC in five of these states while continuing to use GRMIC-NC to write new business in the sixth state. Freddie Mac’s and Fannie Mae’s approvals of this arrangement expire on December 31, 2012.

We plan to write new business through GRMAC in any other state that prohibits GEMICO from writing new business, subject to the approval of applicable insurance regulators and the GSEs and GRMAC continuing to satisfy its own regulatory requirements. Depending upon volume, GRMAC currently has approximately a full year of new business capacity. We continue to discuss our ongoing use of these and other alternative arrangements with our state insurance regulators and the GSEs.

Historically, we have actively managed the risk-to-capital ratios of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries, Genworth Residential Mortgage Insurance Corporation of North Carolina (“GRMIC-NC”), to write business in those five states where GEMICOvarious ways, including through reinsurance arrangements with our subsidiaries and by providing additional capital support to our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries (including through the contribution of a portion of our common shares of Genworth MI Canada Inc.). Our existing intercompany reinsurance arrangements are conducted through affiliated insurance subsidiaries, and therefore, remain subject to regulation by state insurance regulators who could decide to limit, or require the termination of, such arrangements. Any decision to provide additional capital to support our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries is restricted under risk-to-capital requirementssubject to a number of considerations, including (i) the extent to which we are on track towards executing certain capital reallocation transactions to support the redeployment of capital for the benefit of our stockholders while maintaining appropriate risk buffers; (ii) our ongoing analyses of risk scenarios and wherethe value and return on providing such capital support or pursuing other alternative arrangements or strategies; (iii) our assessment and understanding of U.S. policy relating to housing finance, the use of private mortgage insurance or the GSEs; and (iv) our assessment of actions

by competitors and the current views of the GSEs and state regulators. Depending on the state of the U.S. economy and housing market along with other factors, there is a range of potential additional capital needs that our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries might require, including some that could be substantial. As a result, for a variety of reasons, there is no waiver has been grantedassurance that we will or will not provide additional capital to date. We have also taken stepssupport our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries in the future.

In response to be able to utilize another onethe recent years’ adverse operating results, we engaged in a strategic review of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries,business. While our U.S. mortgage insurance business continues to write new business with expected profitable returns on an ongoing basis, we evaluated (i) the maintenance of ongoing operations and potential changes to the business as the private mortgage insurance and broader housing finance markets evolve; (ii) the prospects involved in ceasing to write new business but continuing to service the existing policies in-force (commonly referred to as “runoff”); and (iii) the merits and potential of entering into a strategic transaction involving the spinoff, merger or sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance operations. Key considerations taken into account by us in identifying and assessing alternatives included the efficiency of capital required in the short- and medium-term under each of these options; underlying embedded value within our U.S. mortgage insurance business; maximization of capital deployment flexibility; maintenance of adequate liquidity and financial flexibility; protection of the value, reputation, ratings and regulatory relationships of our U.S. mortgage insurance business and Genworth Residential Mortgage Assurance Corporation (“GRMAC”), for similar purposes. In this regard, Fannie Mae has approved bothas a whole; and maximization of medium- to long-term shareholder value. Each alternative we considered included challenges and opportunities from a financial, operational, reputational and regulatory perspective. We will continue to monitor these considerations and alternatives on a go forward basis and our expectation currently is to continue operating our U.S. mortgage insurance business with the benefit of regulatory waivers and the use of GRMIC-NCalternative subsidiaries to generate new insurance written.

Runoff

Results of our Runoff segment are affected by investment performance, interest rate levels, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality and policyholder surrenders and scheduled maturities. In addition, the results of our Runoff segment can significantly impact our results, regulatory capital requirements, distributable earnings and liquidity.

In January 2011, we discontinued sales of our individual and group variable annuities; however, we continue to service our existing block of business and accept additional deposits on existing contracts. During 2012, improved equity market performance favorably impacted the results of our variable annuity products and regulatory capital requirements. In the future, equity market performance and volatility could result in additional gains or losses in our variable annuity products although associated hedging activities are expected to mitigate most of these impacts. Volatility in the results of our variable annuity products can result in favorable or unfavorable impacts on capital and earnings. In addition to the use of hedging activities to mitigate impacts related to equity market volatility and interest rate risks, we may pursue reinsurance opportunities to further mitigate volatility in results.

The results of our institutional products are impacted by scheduled maturities, as well as liquidity levels. However, we believe our liquidity planning and our request that GRMAC beasset-liability management will largely mitigate this risk.

Effective October 1, 2011, we completed the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business for $276 million. We recognized as an eligible insurer. Fannie Mae’s approvals allow either entity to write businessafter-tax gain on the sale of $20 million in lieuthe fourth quarter of GEMICO subject to specified conditions, including that we refrain from utilizing either entity, except in states where GEMICO is prohibited from writing business due to a breach2011. The transaction included the sale of Continental Life Insurance Company of Brentwood, Tennessee and its maximum risk-to-capital requirement and has not obtained the applicable waiver of such breach. We remain in ongoing consultation with our state regulatorssubsidiary, American Continental Insurance Company, and the GSEs regardingreinsurance of the Medicare supplement insurance in-force business written by other Genworth life insurance subsidiaries.

We expect to manage our ongoing use ofrunoff products for at least the next ten years. Several factors may impact the time period for these alternative arrangements, as necessary.products to runoff including the specific policy types, economic conditions and management strategies.

The three months ended March 31, 2011 included an increase of $10$4 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange, rates.primarily due to lower premium volume driven by reduced levels of consumer lending and our runoff block of business. The current year also included an unfavorable adjustment of $4 million related to a German premium tax.

Our Runoff segment decreased $84 million driven by the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Our International Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $15 million, including an increase of $1 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange.

Net investment gains related to limited partnership investmentsderivatives of $26 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

2012 were primarily associated with credit default swaps and embedded derivatives related to variable annuity products with guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit (“GMWB”) riders. The GMWB gains were primarily due to the policyholder funds outperforming the benchmark indices used for hedging. Additionally, there were gains from the narrowing of credit spreads associated with credit default swaps where we sold protection to improve diversification and portfolio yield. These gains were partially offset by losses associated with derivatives used to hedge foreign currency risk associated with near-term expected dividend payments and other cash flows from certain subsidiaries and to mitigate foreign subsidiary macroeconomic risk. In addition, there were losses attributable to increases in long-term interest rates that that were related to a non-qualified derivative strategy to mitigate interest rate risk associated with our statutory capital position as well as hedge ineffectiveness from our cash flow hedge programs related to our long-term care insurance business. Net investment losses related to derivatives of $10 million induring the first quarter ofthree months end March 31, 2011 were primarily related to $8 million of losses associated with derivative instruments used to hedge foreign currency risk $4 millionand GMWB losses primarily attributed to underperformance of losses from the change in the value of derivative instruments used for mitigating the risk of embedded derivative liabilities associated with ourunderlying variable annuity products with guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (“GMWBs”) exceeding the change in value of the embedded derivative liabilitiesfunds as compared to market indices and $2 million ofmarket losses due to hedge ineffectiveness.resulting from increased volatility. These losses were partially offset by $3 million of gains from credit default swaps due to narrowing credit spreads and $1 million of gains related to a derivative strategy to mitigate interest rate risk associated with our statutory capital position. Net investment losses related to derivatives of $8 million in the first quarter of 2010 were primarily related to $14 million of losses in derivative instruments used for mitigating the risk of embedded derivative liabilities associated with our variable annuity products with GMWBs exceeding the change in value of the embedded derivative liabilities and $3 million of losses from foreign

currency options. These losses were partially offset by $5 million of gains from credit default swaps utilized to improve our diversification and portfolio yield and $5 million of gains in non-qualified interest rate swaps.

Insurance and investment product fees and other. Insurance and investment product fees and other consist primarily of fees assessed against policyholder and contractholder account values, surrender charges, cost of insurance assessed on universal and term universal life insurance policies, advisory and administration service fees assessed on investment contractholder account values, broker/dealer commission revenues and other fees.

 

Our Retirement and ProtectionU.S. Life Insurance segment increased $78$117 million largelymainly driven by an increase of $39 million in our life insurance business related to $88 million of gains on the repurchase of notes secured by our non-recourse funding obligations related to a life block sale transaction in the current year and growth of our term universal life insurance product. The increase was also attributable to growth of our universal life insurance products, partially offset by an increaseunfavorable valuation adjustment in the current year.

Corporate and Other activities increased $14 million primarily attributable to higher income related to our reverse mortgage business.

Our Runoff segment decreased $7 million mainly associated with lower average account values of $29 millionour variable annuity products in our wealth management business and an increase of $8 million in our retirement income business.the current year.

Benefits and other changes in policy reserves. Benefits and other changes in policy reserves consist primarily of benefits paid and reserve activity related to current claims and future policy benefits on insurance and investment products for life, long-term care and Medicare supplement insurance, structured settlements and single premium immediate annuities with life contingencies, lifestyle protection insurance and claim costs incurred related to mortgage insurance products.

 

Our Retirement and ProtectionU.S. Life Insurance segment increased $44decreased $129 million primarily attributable to a $34decrease of $197 million increase in our long-term care insurance business and a $30 million increase in our life insurance business principally related to higher ceded reinsurance in the current year. We initially ceded $209 million of certain term life insurance reserves under a new reinsurance treaty as part of a life block sale transaction. This decrease was partially offset by growth in our term universal life insurance product and less favorable mortality in our term and term universal life insurance products compared to the prior year. Our long-term care insurance business increased $58 million from the aging and growth of our in-force block and higher claims and lower termination rates on older issued policies. Also included in the increase in the current year was a reclassification of loss adjustment expenses of $11 million from acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, and an $11 million increase in reserves associated with a methodology change related to pending claims. These increases were partially offset by a $20favorable actuarial adjustment of $16 million in the current year related to a multi-stage system conversion. Our fixed annuities business increased $10 million largely attributable to higher sales of our life-contingent products in the current year.

Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $82 million mainly from a decrease in change in reserves primarily driven by improved cures and lower new delinquencies. Net paid claims increased principally related to continued aging of the delinquency inventory and a significant reduction in ceded claims under captive arrangements, coupled with a lender portfolio settlement in the current year.

Our Runoff segment decreased $77 million principally from the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011 and a decrease in our retirement income business.guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDBs”) in our variable annuity products due to favorable equity market impacts in the current year.

 

Our International Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $33increased $98 million, as a result of a decrease of $36 million in our lifestyle protection insurance business, partially offset by an increase of $3 million in our international mortgage insurance business. The three months ended March 31, 2011 includedincluding an increase of $6 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.exchange. Australia increased $96 million as a result of a reserve strengthening of $82 million in the current year due to higher than anticipated frequency and severity of claims paid from later stage delinquencies from prior years, particularly in coastal tourism areas of Queensland as a result of regional economic pressures as well as our 2007 and 2008 vintages which have a higher concentration of self-employed borrowers. The adverse change in claims paid in

the current year resulted in increased frequency and severity assumptions for our remaining portfolio of delinquent loans in Australia. In Canada, losses decreased primarily driven by lower delinquencies and paid claims due to a shift in regional mix with fewer claims from Alberta, as well as higher benefits from loss mitigation activities. Other Countries increased primarily from higher new delinquencies and continued aging of existing delinquencies, particularly in Ireland, partially offset by benefits from ongoing loss mitigation activities.

 

Our U.S. Mortgage InsuranceInternational Protection segment increased $83 million.$9 million, including a decrease of $1 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange, primarily driven by lower favorable claim reserve adjustments in the current year. In addition, we reclassified loss adjustment expenses of $3 million from acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, in the current year.

Reconciliation of net income to net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and 2010 was $98$31 million and $114$75 million, respectively. We define net operating income

available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, after-tax net investment gains (losses) and other adjustments and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. We exclude net investment gains (losses) and

infrequent or unusual non-operating items because we do not consider them to be related to the operating performance of our segments and Corporate and Other activities. A component of our net investment gains (losses) is the result of impairments, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to our discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. Infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders if, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. There were no infrequent or unusual non-operating items excluded from net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders during the periods presented other than a $106 million tax benefit related to separation from our former parent recorded in the first quarter of 2010.presented.

While some of these items may be significant components of net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”),GAAP, we believe that net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders and measures that are derived from or incorporate net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, including net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per common share on a basic and diluted basis, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. However, net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders and net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per common share on a basic and diluted basis are not substitutes for net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders or net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per common share on a basic and diluted basis determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition of net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.

Results of Operations and Selected Financial and Operating Performance Measures by Segment

Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. See note 109 in our “—Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for a reconciliation of net operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of our segments and Corporate and Other activities to net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders.

Management’s discussion and analysis by segment also contains selected operating performance measures including “sales,” “assets under management” and “insurance in-force” or “risk in-force” which are commonly used in the insurance and investment industries as measures of operating performance.

Management regularly monitors and reports sales metrics as a measure of volume of new and renewal business generated in a period. Sales refer to: (1) annualized first-year premiums for term life and long-term care and Medicare supplement insurance; (2) new and additional premiums/annualized first-year deposits plus 5% of excess deposits for universal and term universal life insurance linked-benefits, spread-based and variable products; (3) 10% of premium deposits for linked-benefits products; (4) new and additional premiums/deposits for fixed annuities; (5) gross flows and net flows, which represent gross flows less redemptions, for our wealth management business; (4)(6) written premiums and deposits, gross of ceded reinsurance and cancellations, and premium equivalents, where we earn a fee for administrative services only business, for our lifestyle protection insurance business; (5)and (7) new insurance written for mortgage insurance; and (6) written premiums net of cancellations for our Mexican insurance operations, which in each case reflects the amount of business we generated during each period presented.insurance. Sales do not include renewal premiums on policies or contracts written during prior periods. We consider annualized first-year premiums, premium equivalents, new premiums/deposits, gross and net flows, written premiums premium equivalents and new insurance written to be a measure of our operating performance because they represent a measure of new sales of insurance policies or contracts during a specified period, rather than a measure of our revenues or profitability during that period.

Management regularly monitors and reports assets under management for our wealth management business, insurance in-force and risk in-force. Assets under management for our wealth management business represent third-party assets under management that are not consolidated in our financial statements. Insurance in-force for our life, international mortgage and U.S. mortgage insurance businesses is a measure of the aggregate face value

of outstanding insurance policies as of the respective reporting date. For our risk in-force in our international mortgage insurance business, we have computed an “effective” risk in-force amount, which recognizes that the loss on any particular loan will be reduced by the net proceeds received upon sale of the property. Effective risk in-force has been calculated by applying to insurance in-force a factor of 35% that represents our highest expected average per-claim payment for any one underwriting year over the life of our businesses in Canada Australia and New Zealand.Australia. Risk in-force for our U.S. mortgage insurance business is our obligation that is limited under contractual terms to the amounts less than 100% of the mortgage loan value. We consider assets under management for our wealth management business, insurance in-force and risk in-force to be a measure of our operating performance because they represent a measure of the size of our business at a specific date which will generate revenues and profits in a future period, rather than a measure of our revenues or profitability during that period.

We also include information related to loss mitigation activities for our U.S. mortgage insurance business. We define loss mitigation activities as rescissions, cancellations, borrower loan modifications, repayment plans, lender- and borrower-titled presalespre-sales, claims administration and other loan workouts and claim mitigation actions.workouts. Estimated savings related to rescissions are the reduction in carried loss reserves, net of premium refunds and reinstatement of prior rescissions. Estimated savings related to loan modifications and other cure related loss mitigation actions represent the reduction in carried loss reserves. For non-cure related actions, including presales,pre-sales, the estimated savings represent the difference between the full claim obligation and the actual amount paid. We believe that this information helps to enhance the understanding of the operating performance of our U.S. mortgage insurance business as theyloss mitigation activities specifically impact current and future loss reserves and level of claim payments.

These operating measures enable us to compare our operating performance across periods without regard to revenues or profitability related to policies or contracts sold in prior periods or from investments or other sources.

This decrease was partially offset by growth ofin our term universal life insurance product and less favorable mortality in our term and term universal life insurance products in the current year as compared to the prior year, partially offset by the runoff of our term life insurance products.year.

 

Our long-term care insurance business increased $34$58 million primarily as a result offrom the aging and growth of our long-term care insurance in-force block.block and higher claims and lower claim termination rates on older issued policies. Also included in the increase was a reclassification of loss adjustment expenses of $11 million from acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, and an $11 million increase in reserves associated with a methodology change related to pending claims. These increases were partially offset by a favorable actuarial adjustment of $16 million in the current year related to a multi-stage system conversion.

 

Our retirement incomefixed annuities business decreased $20increased $10 million largely attributable to a decreasehigher sales of $17 million from our life-contingent spread-based products as a result of a decline in sales in the current year. Our fee-based products decreased $3 million driven by a decline in our guaranteed minimum death benefit claims.

Interest credited. Interest credited decreased $6 millionThe decrease is primarily related to our retirement income business from lower account values on fixed annuities andbusiness mainly from lower crediting rates as the fixed annuities reach the end of their initial creditingin a low interest rate guarantee period.environment.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals

 

Our life insurance business decreased $8increased $9 million primarily related to a $13 million favorable cumulative impact from a recent change in premium taxes in Virginia in the currentprior year partially offset by higher expensesthat did not recur and from growth of our term universal life insurance product.

 

Our long-term care insurance business increaseddecreased $6 million primarily related to a reclassification of loss adjustment expenses of $11 million largely attributable to benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the current year, partially offset by growth of our long-term care insurance in-force block.

Our wealth management business increased $26 million primarily from increased asset-based expenses from the acquisition of Altegris in the fourth quarter of 2010, positive net flows and market growth.

 

Our retirement incomefixed annuities business increased $14decreased $6 million largely driven byprimarily related to a $9 million charge in the first quarter of 2011 from the discontinuance of our variable annuity offerings announced in 2011 and an increasefavorable adjustment of $4 million from anassociated with guarantee funds in the current year compared to a $4 million accrual related to guarantee funds in the currentprior year.

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles

 

Our life insurance business decreased $7increased $139 million primarilyprincipally related to higher ceded reinsurance as we wrote off $142 million of deferred acquisition costs associated with certain term life insurance policies under a new reinsurance treaty as part of a life block sale transaction in the current year. Higher amortization was also attributable to our universal life insurance products due to growth, partially offset by lower amortization related tolapses in our term life insurance policies coming out of their post-level rate period and a decrease in amortization of present value of future profits driven by higher mortality in our universal life insurance products. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in amortization due to growth of our universal life insurance products.

Our long-term care insurancefixed annuities business decreased $5increased $6 million primarily from deferringhigher amortization of deferred acquisition costs associated with the sale of joint policies that were incorrectly expensed in prior years as a result of a system conversion in late 2008 that was identified and corrected in the fourth quarter of 2010. This decrease was partially offset by growth of our long-term care insurance in-force block.

Our retirement income business increased $18 million primarily relatedattributable to an increase of $13 million in our fee-based products principally from a $12 million favorable adjustment recorded in the prior year that did not recur. Our spread-based products increased $5 million mainly from less favorable adjustments related to lapseshigher net investment gains in the current year, partially offset by a decreaselower surrenders in the account values of these products.current year.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $4 milliondecreased related to our life insurance business primarily from higher lettera $20 million favorable adjustment related to the Tax Matters Agreement with our former parent company. This decrease was partially offset by the write-off of credit fees$8 million in deferred borrowing costs from the repurchase and repayment of non-recourse funding obligations associated with a life block sale transaction in the current year.

Provision for income taxes.The effective tax rate increased to 34.5%was relatively flat at 35.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 28.2%2012 compared to 35.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the proportion of tax favored investment benefits to pre-tax results in the current year compared to the prior year and a change in uncertain tax positions in the prior year.2011.

In the first quarter of 2012, we changed our definition of sales related to our life insurance business. For term universal and universal life insurance, sales represent annualized first-year deposits plus 5% of excess deposits. For linked-benefits products, sales represent 10% of premium deposits. The prior period amounts have been re-presented to conform to the new definition.

Term and whole life insurance

Net earned premiums decreased mainly related to higher ceded reinsurance on certain term life insurance policies under a new reinsurance treaty as part of a life block sale transaction in the current year.

Term universal life insurance

Net deposits and our in-force block have increased due to continued growth of this product.

Universal life insurance

Net earned premiums and deposits and our in-force block have increased due primarily to the growth of our universal life insurance products.

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased as a result of lower premiums, lower investment income and an increase in reserves, partially offset by lower expenses. The three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease of $1 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Revenues

Premiums decreased primarily due to lower premium volume driven by reduced levels of consumer lending and our runoff block of business. The current year also included an unfavorable adjustment of $4 million related to a German premium tax. The three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease of $4 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Net investment income decreased principally attributable to reinsurance arrangements accounted for under the deposit method of accounting as certain of these arrangements were in a lower gain position. The three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease of $1 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Insurance and investment product fees and other decreased mainly attributable to lower third-party administration fees.

Benefits and expenses

Benefits and other changes in policy reserves increased primarily driven by lower favorable claim reserve adjustments in the current year. In addition, we reclassified loss adjustment expenses of $3 million from acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, in the current year. The three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease of $1 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, decreased largely from lower paid commissions related to a decline in new business, lower profit commissions driven by higher claims and lower professional fees. In addition, we reclassified loss adjustment expenses of $3 million to benefits and other changes in policy reserves in the current year. The three months ended March 31, 2012 included a decrease of $3 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles decreased primarily as a result of lower premium volume.

Interest expense decreased mainly due to reinsurance arrangements accounted for under the deposit method of accounting as certain of these arrangements were in a lower loss position in the current year.

Provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate decreased to 25.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 27.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to changes in lower taxed foreign income.

The loss ratio increased driven mainly by lower favorable claim reserve adjustments in the current year and a decrease in premiums from lower volumes driven by reduced levels of consumer lending and our runoff block of business.

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

The increase in net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was the result of higher average assets under management from favorable market performance and market growth, partially offset by negative net flows and higher redemptions.

Revenues

Insurance and investment product fees and other increased primarily attributable to higher average assets under management from favorable market performance and market growth, partially offset by negative net flows. Negative flows in the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $359 million primarily related to the movement of a legacy block of managed accounts and from prior year relative investment performance.

Benefits and expenses

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, were flat as higher asset-based expenses from market growth were offset by lower commission expenses and negative net flows.

Provision for income taxes.The effective tax rate decreased to 36.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 41.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to changes in the effective state tax rates.

The increase in assets under management was attributable to favorable market performance during the current year and market growth, partially offset by negative net flows. Negative flows in the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $359 million primarily related to the movement of a legacy block of managed accounts and from prior year relative investment performance.

On April 2, 2012, we completed the sale of our tax and accounting financial advisor unit, GFIS, for approximately $79 million, plus an earnout provision, to Cetera Financial Group. As a result of the sale, assets under management will decrease by approximately $2.8 billion in the second quarter of 2012.

In the first quarter of 2011, we began reporting the results of the linked-benefits product for universal life insurance in our life insurance business. The linked-benefits product for universal life insurance was previously reported in our long-term care insurance business. The amounts associated with this product were not material and the prior period amounts were not re-presented.

Term life insurance

Net earned premiums decreased mainly as a result of the runoff of our term life insurance products, partially offset by an unfavorable reinsurance adjustment of $8 million in the prior year that did not recur. The in-force block also decreased due to runoff.

Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force

Our businesses in Australia New Zealand and Canada currently provide 100% coverage on the majority of the loans we insure in those markets. For the purpose of representing our risk in-force, we have computed an “effective” risk in-force amount, which recognizes that the loss on any particular loan will be reduced by the net proceeds received upon sale of the property. Effective risk in-force has been calculated by applying to insurance in-force a factor that represents our highest expected average per-claim payment for any one underwriting year over the life of our businesses in Australia New Zealand and Canada. For the three months ended March 31, 20112012 and 2010,2011, this factor was 35%.

Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force increased primarily as a result of new insurance written in Canada and Australia,Australia. In Other Countries, the decrease was mainly attributable to prior year settlements in Europe, partially offset by cancellations in Australia and loss mitigation activities in Europe during 2010.new insurance written.

In Canada, flow new insurance written also declined mainly attributable to smaller mortgage originations markets, particularly high loan-to-value refinance transactions, partially offset by a slight improvement in our estimated

market share. In Europe, flow new insurance written declined due to lower primarily drivenvolume from existing lenders as the mortgage market experienced pressure as well as a decision to selectively reduce new business, including exiting certain distribution relationships. These decreases were partially offset by decreasesan increase in flow new insurance written in Australia dueprimarily attributable to a smallerlarger mortgage originations market and lower bulk transactions volumeas the market in Canada. These decreases werethe prior year was impacted by the economic effect of natural disasters, partially offset by higher flow new insurance written in Canada from an estimated increasea slight decrease in our estimated market share and bulk transactions in Australia and Europe in the current year.share. The three months ended March 31, 20112012 included an increase of $1.0$0.2 billion attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Net premiums written and net earned premiums

Most of our international mortgage insurance policies provide for single premiums at the time that loan proceeds are advanced. We initially record the single premiums to unearned premium reserves and recognize the premiums earned over time in accordance with the expected pattern of risk emergence. As of March 31, 2011,2012, our unearned premium reserves were $3.1$2.9 billion, including an increasea decrease of $0.2 billion$64 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates, compared to $3.1 billion as of March 31, 2010. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange, our2011. Our unearned premium reserves decreased primarily related to the seasoning of our in-force blockblocks of business.

Net premiums written in Canada decreased primarily from a smaller mortgage originations market and lower average price, partially offset by a shift in mix with purchases comprising a higher proportion of foreign exchange,new mortgage originations. In Other Countries, net premiums written decreased primarily from lower flow new insurance written in Australia and bulk new insurance writtenEurope, particularly in Canada. Partially offsetting this decrease was higher flow new insurance written in Canada and lower ceded affiliated reinsurance premiums in Australia.

The loss ratio is the ratio of incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio is the ratio of general expenses to net premiums written. In our business, general expenses consist of acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, and amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles.

The increase in the loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to a reserve strengthening in Australia in the current year and higher losses in Europe. In Australia, we strengthened reserves by $82 million due to higher than anticipated frequency and severity of claims paid from later stage delinquencies from prior years, particularly in coastal tourism areas of Queensland as a result of regional economic pressures as well as our 2007 and 2008 vintages which have a higher concentration of self-employed borrowers. The adverse change in claims paid in the current year resulted in increased frequency and severity assumptions for our remaining portfolio of delinquent loans in Australia. In Canada, the loss ratio was flat as lower losses were offset by lower earned premiums. In Other Countries, the loss ratio increased as a result of increased losses from higher new delinquencies and continued aging of existing delinquencies, particularly in Ireland, and lower earned premiums.

The decrease in the expense ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to an increase in net premiums written in Australia and relatively flat overall general expenses compared to the prior year.

Included loans where we were in a secondary loss position for which no reserve was established due to an existing deductible. Excluding these loans, bulk delinquent loans were 3,942 as of March 31, 2012, 3,840 as of December 31, 2011 and 3,374 as of March 31, 2011.

In Canada, flow and bulk loans in-force increased primarily from continued growth. In Australia, flow loans in-force increased marginally during the current year as new policies written exceeded policy cancellations. In Other Countries, flow and bulk loans in-force decreased primarily from loss mitigation activities in Europe. In Canada, flow delinquent loans decreased primarily as a result of higher paid claims during the current year. In Australia, flow delinquent loans decreased marginally in the current year compared to December 31, 2011 as higher volumes of claims paid more than offset new delinquencies. In Europe, flow delinquent loans increased from higher delinquencies as a result of seasoning of our in-force blocks of business and regional economic pressures, primarily in Ireland.

Net operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

The decrease in the net operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was mainly related to improved cure rates and fewer new delinquencies, partially offset by continued aging of existing delinquencies in the current year.

Revenues

Premiums decreased driven by lower insurance in-force and lower premiums assumed from an affiliated intercompany reinsurance agreement, partially offset by benefits associated with our previously implemented rate increases.

Net investment income decreased primarily from lower investment yields as a result of holding higher cash balances to meet claims-paying needs and lower average invested assets.

The increase in net investment gains was primarily driven by higher gains on the sale of investments from portfolio repositioning activities in the current year.

Benefits and expenses

Benefits and other changes in policy reserves decreased due to a decrease in change in reserves of $108 million, partially offset by an increase in net paid claims of $26 million. The decrease in change in reserves was primarily driven by improved cures and lower new delinquencies. The increase in net paid claims was attributable to continued aging of the delinquency inventory and a significant reduction in ceded claims under captive arrangements, coupled with a net $9 million portfolio settlement with one of our lenders in the current year.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, decreased primarily from lower operating expenses as a result of a cost–saving initiative in 2011.

Benefit for income taxes.The effective tax rate decreased to 39.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 42.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to changes in tax favored investment income.

Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force

Primary insurance in-force decreased primarily as a result of rescission and other loss mitigation actions and a decline in our mortgage insurance market share due to tighter mortgage insurance guidelines and our pricing structure. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in new insurance written. In addition, risk in-force decreased due to tighter mortgage insurance guidelines as well as a continued weak housing market and reduced mortgage credit liquidity. Flow persistency was 81% and 86% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

New insurance written

New insurance written increased during the three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily driven by an increase in the mortgage insurance refinance market, partially offset by a decline in our mortgage insurance market share due to tighter mortgage insurance guidelines and our pricing structure.

Net premiums written

Net premiums written remained flat as lower assumed reinsurance premiums were offset by higher new insurance written.

Loss and expense ratios

Loss ratio

   144  197  (53)% 

Expense ratio

The loss ratio is the ratio of incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio is the ratio of general expenses to net premiums written. In our business, general expenses consist of acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, and amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles.

The decrease in the loss ratio was primarily attributable to lower losses in Europe related to lender settlements in the prior year and ongoing loss mitigation activities. In Australia, the loss ratio increased primarily from an increase in reserves driven by the economic impact of recent flooding.

The increase in the expense ratio was primarily attributable to Australia from lower net premiums written.

Flow loans in-force increased primarily from flow new insurance written in Canada during the current year while bulk loans in-force decreased from higher cancellations in Australia. Delinquent loans increased from higher delinquencies in Australia and Europe as a result of the seasoning of our insurance in-force, partially offset by lower delinquencies in Mexico.

Gross written premiums, premium equivalents and deposits, gross of ceded reinsurance and cancellations, were relatively flat as our re-pricing initiatives were offset by reduced levels of consumer lending. The three months ended March 31, 2011 included a decrease of $13 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Net earned premiums

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the decrease was primarily attributable to our runoff block of business and a decrease in premium volume driven by reduced levels of consumer lending. Additionally, there was a favorable premium adjustment related to the timing of receiving client data which was partially offset by an unfavorable reinsurance adjustment in the first quarter of 2010. The three months ended March 31, 2011 included a decrease of $7 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Net operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

The increase in the net operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders was as a result of lower benefits from loss mitigation activities and an increase in the aging of existing delinquencies, partially offset by lower new delinquencies.

Revenues

Premiums remained flat as lower premium refunds related to rescission activity were offset by both lower average primary insurance in-force and lower premiums assumed from an affiliate under an intercompany reinsurance agreement.

Net investment income increased primarily related to a preferred stock dividend in the current year, partially offset by lower invested assets.

The decrease in net investment gains was primarily driven by lower gains on the sale of investments from portfolio repositioning activities.

Insurance and investment product fees and other income decreased from the commutation of a captive trust in the prior year that did not recur.

Benefits and expenses

Benefits and other changes in policy reserves increased due to an increase in change in reserves of $258 million and a decrease in net paid claims of $175 million. This included a settlement with a counterparty related to our GSE Alt-A business of $5 million, consisting of net paid claims of $180 million and a decrease in change in reserves of $185 million in the first quarter of 2010. Excluding the settlement in the prior year, the increase in incurred losses in the current year waslargely driven by lower benefits from loss mitigation activitiesimproved cures and an increase in the aging of existing delinquencies, partially offset by lower new delinquencies. The increase in paid claims was attributable to higher claim counts offset by a decrease in average claim payments reflecting lower loan balances.

Benefit for income taxes.The effective tax rate increased to 42.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 36.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to changes in tax favored investment income and a state income tax adjustment in the prior year that did not recur.

In addition, risk in-force decreased due to tighter mortgage insurance guidelines and mortgage lender underwriting standards as well as a weak housing market and reduced mortgage credit liquidity. Flow persistency was 86% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

New insurance written

New insurance written increased during the three months ended March 31, 2011 primarily driven by an increase in the overall mortgage insurance market, partially offset by a decline in our mortgage insurance market share due to tighter mortgage insurance guidelines and mortgage lender underwriting standards.

Excluding the settlementour lenders in the first quarter of 2010, the loss ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2010 would have been 141%. The increase in the loss ratio was primarily attributable to an increase in change in reserves largely driven by lower benefits from loss mitigation activities and an increase in the aging of existing delinquencies, partially offset by lower new delinquencies. In addition, the loss ratio increased as net paid claims increased from higher claim counts, partially offset by a decrease in average claim payments reflecting lower loan balances.current year.

Delinquency and foreclosure levels that developed principally in our 2006, 2007 and 2008 book years have remained high as the United States continues to experience an economic recession and weakness in its housing markets.residential real estate market. These trends continue to be especially evident in Florida, California, Arizona and Nevada, as well as in our A minus, Alt-A, adjustable rate mortgages (“ARMs”) and certain 100% loan-to-value products. However, we have seen a decline in new delinquencies.delinquencies and improvement in cures.

The following tables set forth flow delinquencies, direct case reserves and risk in-force by aged missed payment status in our U.S. mortgage insurance portfolio as of the dates indicated:

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders

Net operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders increased primarily related to our variable annuity products largely driven by favorable equity market performance in the current year and a $7 million charge from the discontinuance of our variable annuity offerings in the prior year that did not recur.

Revenues

Premiums decreased driven by the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Net investment income increased primarily from higher policy loan income in the current year, partially offset by the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Net investment gains increased largely related to higher gains on embedded derivatives associated with our variable annuity products with GMWBs in the current year and lower impairments related to our institutional products. This was partially offset by higher derivative losses in the current year.

Insurance and investment product fees and other decreased mainly attributable to lower average account values of our variable annuity products in the current year.

Benefits and expenses

Benefits and other changes in policy reserves decreased primarily attributable to the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011 and a decrease in our GMDB reserves in our variable annuity products due to favorable equity market impacts in the current year.

Interest credited decreased principally related to our institutional products from lower interest paid on our floating rate policyholder liabilities due to lower interest rates and a decrease in average outstanding liabilities.

Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, decreased principally from a $9 million charge from the discontinuance of our variable annuity offerings in the prior year that did not recur and the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles decreased largely related to our variable annuity products from favorable equity market impacts and a $4 million favorable unlocking in the current year driven by lower surrenders. The decrease was also attributable to the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate decreased to 26.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 33.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily related to small pre-tax results in the prior year compared to the current year. The effective tax rate in the current year was also impacted by a higher proportion of tax benefits in the first quarter of 2012 to expected full year results.

The Income Distribution Series products are comprised of our deferred and immediate variable annuity products, including those variable annuity products with rider options that provide guaranteed income benefits, including GMWBs and certain types of guaranteed annuitization benefits. These products do not include fixed single premium immediate annuities or deferred annuities, which may also serve income distribution needs.

Income Distribution Series

Account value related to our income distribution series products increased mainly attributable to favorable equity market performance, partially offset by surrenders outpacing deposits. We no longer solicit sales of our variable annuities; however, we continue to service our existing block of business and accept additional deposits on existing contracts.

Traditional variable annuities

In our traditional variable annuities, the increase in account value was as a result of favorable equity market performance, partially offset by surrenders outpacing deposits. We no longer solicit sales of our variable annuities; however, we continue to service our existing block of business and accept additional deposits on existing contracts.

Variable life insurance

We no longer solicit sales of variable life insurance; however, we continue to service our existing block of business.

We have included in surrenders the early retirement of institutional contracts at a discount to contract values.

Account value related to our institutional products decreased from the prior year mainly attributable to scheduled maturities of these products. Interest credited declined due to a decrease in average outstanding liabilities and lower average crediting rates. We had no new sales in the current year as we explore the issuance of our institutional contracts on an opportunistic basis.

Yields for fixed maturity and equity securities are based on weighted-average amortized cost or cost, respectively. Yields for other invested assets, which include securities lending activity, are calculated net of the corresponding securities lending liability. All other yields are based on average carrying values.

Of total impairments for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, and 2010, $21$15 million and $62$21 million, respectively, related to structured securities, including $15$8 million and $36$15 million, respectively, related to sub-prime and Alt-A residential mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Impairments related to corporate securities as a result of bankruptcies, receivership or concerns about the issuer’s ability to continue to make contractual payments or where we have intent to sell were $14 million and $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Net investment gains related to limited partnership investmentsderivatives of $26 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

2012 were primarily associated with credit default swaps and embedded derivatives related to variable annuity products with GMWB riders. The GMWB gains were primarily due to the policyholder funds outperforming the benchmark indices used for hedging. Additionally, there were gains from the narrowing of credit spreads associated with credit default swaps where we sold protection to improve diversification and portfolio yield. These gains were partially offset by losses associated with derivatives used to hedge foreign currency risk associated with near-term expected dividend payments and other cash flows from certain subsidiaries and to mitigate foreign subsidiary macroeconomic risk. In addition, there were losses attributable to increases in long-term interest rates that that were related to a non-qualified derivative strategy to mitigate interest rate risk associated with our statutory capital position as well as hedge ineffectiveness from our cash flow hedge programs related to our long-term care insurance business. Net investment losses related to derivatives of $10 million induring the first quarter ofthree months ended March 31, 2011 were primarily related to $8 million of losses associated with derivative instruments used to hedge foreign currency risk $4 millionand GMWB losses primarily attributed to underperformance of losses from the change in the value of derivative instruments used for mitigating the risk of embedded derivative liabilities associated with ourunderlying variable annuity products with GMWBs exceeding the change in value of the embedded derivative liabilitiesfunds as compared to market indices and $2 million ofmarket losses due to hedge ineffectiveness.resulting from increased volatility. These losses were partially offset by $3 million of gains from credit default swaps due to narrowing credit spreads and $1 million of gains related to a derivative strategy to mitigate interest rate risk associated with our statutory capital position. Net investment losses related to derivatives of $8 million in the first quarter of 2010 were primarily related to $14 million of losses in derivative instruments used for mitigating the risk of embedded derivative liabilities associated with our variable annuity products with GMWBs exceeding the change in value of the embedded derivative liabilities and $3 million of losses from foreign currency options. These losses were partially offset by $5 million of gains from credit default swaps utilized to improve our diversification and portfolio yield and $5 million of gains in non-qualified interest rate swaps.

Net lossesgains related to the sale of available-for-sale securities were $17 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to net losses of $2 million induring the first quarterthree months ended March 31, 2011. We recorded net losses of 2011$25 million related to trading securities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $15net gains of $11 million induring the first quarterthree months ended March 31, 2011. We recorded $24 million of 2010. Wehigher net gains related to securitization entities during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011 primarily associated with derivatives. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we also recorded $16a $2 million frompurchase price valuation adjustment related to the recoverypurchase of a counterparty receivableAltegris in the first quarter of 2010.

 

The aggregate fair value of securities sold at a loss during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $357 million from the sale of 103 securities and 2010 was $397 million from the sale of 74 securities, and $558 million from the sale of 128 securities, respectively, which was approximately 90% and 94%, respectively, of book value for both 2011 and 2010.value. The loss on sales of securities in the three months ended March 31, 20112012 was primarily driven by widening credit spreads. Generally, securities that are sold at a loss represent either small dollar amounts or percentage losses upon disposition. However, in certain circumstances, events may occur that change our intent to hold specificThe securities and thus result in our disposition of the security at a loss. Examples of these events include unforeseen issuer-specific events or conditions and shifts in risk or uncertainty of certain securities.

The securities sold at a loss in the first quarter of 2011 included two U.S. corporate securities that were sold for a total loss of $11 million related to portfolio repositioning activities. Of the securities that were sold at a loss during the three months ended March 31, 2010, the average period of time those securities had been continuously in an unrealized loss position was approximately 16 months. The securities sold at a loss in the first quarter of 2010 included one non-U.S. government security that was sold for a total loss of $7 million related to portfolio repositioning activities.

During the first quarter of 2012, financial markets showed signs of improvement from the volatility that characterized the market in the fourth quarter of 2011 due to increased uncertainty regarding both the U.S. and European economies and concerns over the spread of economic and financial system risk from peripheral European countries to the larger European countries and the impact on the European banking sector of a possible default on Greek debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we reduced our exposure to the peripheral European countries by $42 million to $657 million with unrealized losses of $28 million. Our exposure as of March 31, 2012 was diversified with direct exposure to local economies of $271 million, indirect exposure through debt issued by subsidiaries outside of the European periphery of $142 million and exposure to multinational companies where the majority of revenues come from outside of the country of domicile of $244 million.

The decrease in the notional value of derivatives was primarily attributable to a $1.1$0.3 billion notional decrease in interest rate swaps, and swaptionsa $0.1 billion decrease related to a derivative strategy to mitigate interest rate risk associated with our statutory capital position, a $0.6 billion notional decrease in interest rate swaps and financial futures used to hedge liabilities related to our institutional products and a $0.5 billion notional decrease in derivatives used to hedge our variable annuity products with GMWBs. These decreases were partially offset byGMWBs and a $1.0decrease of $0.1 billion notional increase in cash flow hedgesnon-qualifying interest rate swaps related to our interest rate hedging strategy associated with our long-term care insurance products. These decreases were partially offset by a $0.3 billion notional increase in derivatives used to hedge foreign currency and equity market risk and $0.1 billion of cross currency swaps added during 2012.

Other invested assets decreased $0.1$1.8 billion primarily driven by a decrease in derivatives and derivatives counterparty collateral largely attributable to the long-term interest rate environment, a decrease in short-term investments as maturities were reinvested longer term and a decrease in demand for the securities lending program in the United States. Our fixed maturity securities portfolio increased $0.2 billion primarily as a result of purchases exceeding maturities and sales and a decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar, partially offset by an increase in our securities lending program and short-term investments.interest rates in the current year.

Our principal sources of cash include sales of our products and services, income from our investment portfolio and proceeds from sales of investments. As an insurance business, we typically generate positive cash flows from operating activities, as premiums collected from our insurance products and income received from our investments exceed policy acquisition costs, benefits paid, redemptions and operating expenses. These positive cash flows are then invested to support the obligations of our insurance and investment products and required capital supporting these products. Our cash flows from operating activities are affected by the timing of premiums, fees and investment income received and benefits and expenses paid.

In analyzing our cash flow, we focus on the change in the amount of cash available and used in investing activities. We had netlower cash inflows from investing activities induring the first quarter ofthree months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011 as proceeds from maturities and saleshigher purchases of fixed maturity securities exceeded purchases of investments.in the current year, partially offset by cash inflows from other invested assets in the current year compared to cash outflows in the prior year.

Changes in cash from financing activities primarily relate to the issuance of, and redemptions and benefit payments on, universal life insurance and investment contracts; the issuance and acquisition of debt and equity securities; the issuance and repayment or repurchase of borrowings and non-recourse funding obligations; and dividends to our stockholders and other capital transactions. We had lower net cash outflows from financing activities induring the first quarter of 2011three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily related to lower redemptions of our investment contracts primarily from scheduled maturitiesin the current year, partially offset by the repurchase and surrenders which exceeded deposits received on these contracts. Net cash from financing activities increased related to net proceeds received fromredemption of non-recourse funding obligations in the issuance of senior notes during the first quarter of 2011.current year.

In the United States and Canada, we engage in certain securities lending transactions for the purpose of enhancing the yield on our investment securities portfolio, which require the borrower to provide collateral, consisting of cash and government securities, on a daily basis in amounts equal to or exceeding 102% in the United States and 105% in Canada of the fair value of the applicable securities loaned.portfolio. We maintain effective control over all loaned securities and, therefore, continue to report such securities as fixed maturity securities on the consolidated balance sheets. We are currently indemnified against counterparty credit risk by the intermediary.

Under the securities lending program in the United States, the borrower is required to provide collateral, which can consist of cash or government securities, on a daily basis in amounts equal to or exceeding 102% of the applicable securities loaned. Currently, we only accept cash collateral from borrowers under the program. Cash and non-cash collateral such as a security, received by us on securities lending transactions is reflected in other invested assets with an offsetting liability recognized in other liabilities for the obligation to return the collateral. Any cash collateral received is reinvested by our custodian based upon the investment guidelines provided within our agreement. In

the United States, the reinvested cash collateral is primarily invested in a money market fund approved by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”),NAIC, U.S. and foreign government securities, U.S. government agency securities, asset-backed securities and corporate debt securities. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of securities loaned under our securities lending program in the United States was $0.1 billion and $0.4 billion, respectively. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of collateral held under our securities lending program in the United States was $0.1 billion and $0.4 billion, respectively, and the offsetting obligation to return collateral of $0.1 billion and $0.4 billion, respectively, was included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. We did not have any non-cash collateral provided by the borrower in our securities lending program in the United States as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Under our securities lending program in Canada, the borrower is required to provide collateral consisting of government securities on a daily basis in amounts equal to or exceeding 105% of the fair value of the applicable securities loaned. Securities received from counterparties as collateral are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet given that the risk and rewards of ownership is not transferred from the counterparties to us in the course of such transactions. Additionally, there was no cash collateral as cash collateral is not permitted as an acceptable form of collateral under the program. In Canada, the lending institution must be included on the approved Securities Lending Borrowers List with the Canadian regulator and the intermediary must be rated at least “AA-” by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC. We are currently indemnified against counterparty credit risk by the intermediary. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, the fair value of securities loaned under theour securities lending program in Canada was $0.8 billion, consisting of $0.5 billion in the United States and $0.3 billion in Canada. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of collateral held under the securities

lending program was $0.8 billion and the offsetting obligation to return collateral of $0.8 billion was included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. We had non-cash collateral of $0.3 billion as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.billion.

We also have a repurchase program in which we sell an investment security at a specified price and agree to repurchase that security at another specified price at a later date. Repurchase agreements are treated as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at the amounts at which the securities will be subsequently reacquired, including accrued interest, as specified in the respective agreement. The market value of securities to be repurchased is monitored and collateral levels are adjusted where appropriate to protect the counterparty and us against credit exposure. Cash received is invested in fixed maturity securities. As of March 31, 20112012 and December 31, 2010,2011, the fair value of securities pledged under the repurchase program was $1.6$1.5 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, and the repurchase obligation of $1.6$1.4 billion and $1.7$1.5 billion, respectively, was included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Genworth Financial, Inc.—holding company

We conduct all our operations through our operating subsidiaries. Dividends from our subsidiaries and permitted payments to us under our tax sharing arrangements with our subsidiaries are our principal sources of cash to pay stockholder dividends and to meet our holding company obligations, including payments of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. OtherOur principal sources of cash include proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities, including borrowings pursuant to our credit facilities, dividends from our subsidiaries, payments to us under our tax sharing arrangements with our subsidiaries and sales of assets. Insurance laws and regulations regulate the payment of dividends and other distributions to us by our insurance subsidiaries. We expect dividends paid to us by our insurance subsidiaries will vary depending on strategic objectives, regulatory requirements and business performance.

Our primary uses of funds at our holding company level include payment of general operating expenses, payment of principal, interest and other expenses related to holding company debt, payment of dividends on our common and preferred stock (to the extent declared by our Board of Directors), amounts we owe to GE under the Tax Matters Agreement, contributions to subsidiaries, repurchase of stock, and, potentially, acquisitions.

Our holding company had $1,140 million and $813 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Our holding company also had $200 million in highly liquid U.S. government bonds as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

In November 2008, our Board of Directors decided to suspend the payment of dividends on our common stock indefinitely. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be dependent on many factors including the receipt of dividends from our operating subsidiaries, our financial condition and operating results, the capital requirements of our subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, our credit and financial strength ratings and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Our holding company had $1,272 million and $907 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Our holding company also held $140 million and $40 million in highly liquid securities as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we received dividends from our subsidiaries of $10 million. On April 27, 2012, we received a dividend of $100 million ($38 million of which was deemed “extraordinary”) from one of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries representing a portion of the proceeds from the sale of our Medicare supplement insurance business which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Regulated insurance subsidiaries

The liquidity requirements of our regulated insurance subsidiaries principally relate to the liabilities associated with their various insurance and investment products, operating costs and expenses, the payment of dividends to us, contributions to their subsidiaries, payment of principal and interest on their outstanding debt obligations and income taxes. Liabilities arising from insurance and investment products include the payment of benefits, as well as cash payments in connection with policy surrenders and withdrawals, policy loans and obligations to redeem funding agreements.

Our insurance subsidiaries have used cash flows from operations and investment activities to fund their liquidity requirements. Our insurance subsidiaries’ principal cash inflows from operating activities are derived from premiums, annuity deposits and insurance and investment product fees and other income, including commissions, cost of insurance, mortality, expense and surrender charges, contract underwriting fees, investment management fees and dividends and distributions from their subsidiaries. The principal cash inflows from investment activities result from repayments of principal, investment income and, as necessary, sales of invested assets.

Our insurance subsidiaries maintain investment strategies intended to provide adequate funds to pay benefits without forced sales of investments. Products having liabilities with longer durations, such as certain life insurance and long-term care insurance policies, are matched with investments having similar estimated livesduration such as long-term fixed maturity securities and commercial mortgage loans. Shorter-term liabilities are matched with fixed maturity securities that have short- and medium-term fixed maturities. In addition, our insurance subsidiaries hold highly liquid, high-qualityhigh quality short-term investment securities and other liquid investment grade fixed maturity securities to fund anticipated operating expenses, surrenders and withdrawals. As of March 31, 2011,2012, our total cash, cash equivalents and invested assets were $71.8$74.5 billion. Our investments in privately placed fixed maturity securities, commercial mortgage loans, policy loans, limited partnership interests and select mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are relatively illiquid. These asset classes represented approximately 31%30% of the carrying value of our total cash, cash equivalents and invested assets as of March 31, 2011.2012.

As of March 31, 2011,2012, we had approximately $444$135 million of GICs outstanding. Substantially all of these contracts allow for the payment of benefits at contract value to Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) plans prior to contract maturity in the event of death, disability, retirement or change in investment election. These contracts also provide for early termination by the contractholder but are subject to an adjustment to the contract value for changes in the level of interest rates from the time the GIC was issued plus an early withdrawal penalty. We carefully underwrite these risks before issuing a GIC to a plan and historically have been able to effectively manage our exposure to these benefit payments. Our GICs typically credit interest at a fixed interest rate and have a fixed maturity generally ranging from two to six years.

Capital resources and financing activities

We have two five-year revolving credit facilities that mature in May 2012 and August 2012. These facilities bear variable interest rates based on one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin and we have access to $1.9 billion under these facilities. As of March 31, 2011,2012, we had no borrowings under these facilities; however, we utilized $280$254 million under these facilities primarily for the issuance of letters of credit for the benefit of one of our life insurance subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we had no borrowings under these facilities; however, we utilized $56$257 million under these facilities primarily for the issuance of letters of credit

for the benefit of one of our lifestyle protectionlife insurance subsidiaries. At this time, we do not intend to renew our revolving credit facility that matures in May 2012. As we approach the maturity date for our August credit facility, we are evaluating, and will continue to evaluate, our options to extend, replace or refinance a portion of our credit facility. There can be no assurance that we will be able to extend, replace or refinance this facility on terms (or at targeted amounts) acceptable to us or at all.

In March 2011,2012, we issuedpriced a $350 million reopening of our 7.625% senior notes havingdue in September 2021. The notes were offered as additional debt securities under an indenture, as supplemented from time to time, pursuant to which we have previously issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of $400 million, with an interest rate equal toour 7.625% per year payable semi-annually, and maturingsenior notes due in September 2021 (“2021 Notes”).2021. The 2021 Notesnotes are our direct, unsecured obligations and will rank equally with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. We have the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2021 Notes at any time with proper notice to the note holdersThe notes were issued at a public offering price equal to the greater of 100%103% of principal or the sumamount, with a yield to maturity of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the then-current treasury rate plus an applicable spread.7.184%. The net proceeds of $397$358 million from the issuance of the 2021 Notesnew notes were used for general corporate purposes.purposes, including increasing liquidity at the holding company level.

As of March 31, 2012, we had $2.6 billion of fixed and floating rate non-recourse funding obligations outstanding backing additional statutory reserves. In January 2012, as part of a life block sale transaction, we repurchased $475 million of our non-recourse funding obligations issued by River Lake III, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, resulting in a U.S. GAAP after-tax gain of approximately $52 million. In connection with the repurchase, we ceded certain term life insurance policies to a third-party reinsurer resulting in a U.S. GAAP after-tax loss, net of amortization of deferred acquisition costs, of $93 million. The combined transactions resulted in a U.S. GAAP after-tax loss of approximately $41 million which was included in our U.S. Life Insurance segment. In February and March 2012, we repaid the remaining non-recourse funding obligations issued by River Lake III of $176 million.

We believe existing holding company cash combined with proceeds from the issuance of debt, including borrowings pursuant to our revolving credit facilities (to the extent available), dividends from our subsidiaries, permitted payments to us under our tax sharing arrangements with our subsidiaries and anticipated cash flows from operationssales of assets will provide us with sufficient capital flexibility and liquidity to meet our future operating requirements, as well as optimize our capital structure.requirements. In addition, we actively monitor our liquidity position, liquidity generation options and the credit markets given changing market conditions. However, we cannot predict with any certainty the impact to us from any furtherfuture disruptions in the credit markets or further downgrades by one or more of the rating agencies of the financial strength ratings of our insurance company subsidiaries and/or the credit ratings of our holding company. The availability of additional funding will depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, regulatory considerations, the general availability of credit, the overall availability of credit to the financial services industry, the level of activity and availability of reinsurers, our credit ratings and credit capacity and the performance of and outlook for our business.

Genworth MI Canada Inc., our majority-owned subsidiary, plans to repurchase approximately CAD$160 million of its existing common shares, with the amount and timing subject to market conditions and customary approvals. We expect to receive approximately CAD$82 million after-tax in net proceeds, with no percentage change in ownership.

Contractual obligations and commercial commitments

We enter into obligations to third parties in the ordinary course of our operations. However, we do not believe that our cash flow requirements can be assessed based upon analysis of these obligations as the funding of these future cash obligations will be from future cash flows from premiums, deposits, fees and investment income that are not reflected herein. Future cash outflows, whether they are contractual obligations or not, also will vary based upon our future needs. Although some outflows are fixed, others depend on future events. Examples of fixed obligations include our obligations to pay principal and interest on fixed-rate borrowings. Examples of obligations that will vary include obligations to pay interest on variable-rate borrowings and insurance liabilities that depend on future interest rates and market performance. Many of our obligations are linked to cash-generating contracts. These obligations include payments to contractholders that assume those contractholders will continue to make deposits in accordance with the terms of their contracts. In addition, our operations involve significant expenditures that are not based upon “commitments.”

There have been no material additions or changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments as set forth in our 20102011 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 25, 2011,27, 2012, except as discussed above under “—Capital resources and financing activities.” However, we announced in March 2011 that we intend to redeem all outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock on June 1, 2011, in accordance with their terms.

Securitization Entities

There were no off-balance sheet securitization transactions induring the three months ended March 31, 20112012 or 2010.2011.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of the loss of fair value resulting from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. Market risk is directly influenced by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying financial instruments are traded. The following is a discussion of our market risk exposures and our risk management practices.

Credit markets continued to showshowed signs of improvement across most asset classes in the first quarter of 2011.2012. Additionally, U.S. Treasury yields remained at historically low levels during the first quarter of 2012. See “—Business trends and conditions” and “—Investments and Derivative Instruments” in “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion of recent market conditions.

In the first quarter of 2011,2012, the U.S. dollar weakened against currencies in Canada, Australia and Australia strengthened against the U.S. dollar, while in Europe the currencies weakened against the U.S. dollar, as compared to the first quarter of 2010 and remained relatively flat from the fourth quarter of 2010.2011. This has generally resulted in higher levels of reported revenues and net income, assets, liabilities and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our U.S. dollar consolidated financial statements. See “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion on the impact changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

There were no other material changes in these risks since December 31, 2010.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2011,2012, an evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, the Acting Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2011.2012.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting During the Quarter Ended March 31, 20112012

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 20112012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

We face the risk of litigation and regulatory investigations and actions in the ordinary course of operating our businesses, including the risk of class action lawsuits. Our pending legal and regulatory actions include proceedings specific to us and others generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which we operate. In our insurance operations, we are, have been, or may become subject to class actions and individual suits alleging, among other things, issues relating to sales or underwriting practices, increases to in-force long-term care insurance premiums, payment of contingent or other sales commissions, bidding practices in connection with our management and administration of a third-party’s municipal guaranteed investment contract business, claims payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, administration, additional premium charges for premiums paid on a periodic basis, denial or delay of benefits, charging excessive or impermissible fees on products, recommending unsuitable products to customers, our pricing structures and business practices in our mortgage insurance businesses, such as captive reinsurance arrangements with lenders and contract underwriting services, violations of RESPA or related state anti-inducement laws, and breaching fiduciary or other duties to customers. Plaintiffs in class action and other lawsuits against us may seek very large or indeterminate amounts which may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. In our investment-related operations, we are subject to litigation involving commercial disputes with counterparties. We are also subject to litigation arising out of our general business activities such as our contractual and employment relationships. In addition, we are also subject to various regulatory inquiries, such as information requests, subpoenas, books and record examinations and market conduct and financial examinations from state, federal and international regulators and other authorities. A substantial legal liability or a significant regulatory action against us could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if we ultimately prevail in the litigation, regulatory action or investigation, we could suffer significant reputational harm, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Except as discloseddescribed below, there were no material developments during the three months ended March 31, 20112012 in any of the legal proceedings identified in Part I, Item 3 of our 20102011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, except as set forth below, there were no new material legal proceedings during the three months ended March 31, 2011.2012.

As previously disclosed, in December 2011, one of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries received a subpoena from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of the Inspector General with respect to reinsurance arrangements, including captive reinsurance transactions. That subpoena was withdrawn subsequent to our subsidiary’s receipt of an information request from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in January 2012, relating to the same subject matter.

As previously disclosed, in December 2009,2011 and January 2012, one of our non-insuranceU.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries one of the subsidiary’s officerswas named along with several other mortgage insurance participants and Genworth Financial, Inc. were namedmortgage lenders as a defendant in athree putative class action lawsuitlawsuits alleging that certain “captive reinsurance arrangements” were in violation of RESPA. Four additional putative class actions, making similar allegations, have since been filed in which our mortgage insurance subsidiary is again named as one of numerous defendants. Those cases are captioned as follows:Michael J. Goodman and Linda BrownMcCarn, et al. v. Genworth Financial Wealth Management, Inc.,HSB, et al,al. in the, United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. In response to our motion to dismissCalifornia;Manners, et al, v. First Third Bank, et al., United States District court for the complaint in its entirety, the Court granted on March 30, 2011 the motion to dismiss the state law fiduciary duty claim and denied the motion to dismiss the remaining federal claims. We continue to vigorously defend this action.

As previously disclosed, we and oneWestern District of our mortgage insurance subsidiaries were named in a putative class action lawsuit filed in November 2010 captionedPennsylvania;Archie Moses and Violet M. Moses v. SunTrust Banks, Inc.,Riddle, et al,al. v Bank of America, et al.in the, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Columbia. On March 10, 2011, plaintiffs voluntarily dismissedPennsylvania; andRulison et al. v. ABN AMRO Mortgage Group, Inc. et al., United States District Court for the action without prejudiceSouthern District of New York. We intend to vigorously defend these actions.

In April 2012, two of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries were named as to Genworth Financial,respondents in two arbitrations, one brought by Bank of America, N.A., and one brought by Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A., as claimants. Claimants allege breach of contract and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and seek a declaratory judgment relating to our subsidiaries’ mortgage insurance subsidiary.claims

handling practices in connection with denying, curtailing or rescinding coverage of mortgage insurance. Claimants seek damages in excess of $834 million, in addition to interest and punitive damages. We intend to vigorously defend these actions.

We cannot ensure that the current investigations and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, it is possible that related investigations and proceedings may be commenced in the future, and we could become subject to additional unrelated investigations and lawsuits. Increased regulatory scrutiny and any resulting investigations or proceedings could result in new legal precedents and industry-wide regulations or practices that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Item 1A.Risk Factors

The discussion of our business and operations should be read together with the risk factors contained in Item 1A of our 20102011 Annual Report on Form 10-K which describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. As of March 31, 2011,Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the above-referenced filing.filing as of March 31, 2012.

Adverse market or other conditions might further delay or impede the planned IPO of our mortgage insurance business in Australia.

On November 3, 2011, we announced our plan to sell a minority position of up to 40% of our Australian mortgage insurance business through an IPO in Australia during 2012. On April 17, 2012, we announced that we are now seeking to complete this transaction in early 2013, subject to market conditions, valuation considerations including business performance, and regulatory approvals. This new timeframe primarily reflects recent business performance in Australia. While we expect this transaction is achievable, there can be no assurance that this transaction can be executed within the new targeted timeframe, on the desired terms, or at all.

The information in this Quarterly Report concerning the IPO securities is not an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities. The IPO securities referred to in this Quarterly Report have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. If an offer of IPO securities which requires disclosure in Australia is made, a disclosure document for the offer will be prepared at that time. Any person who wishes to apply to acquire IPO securities will need to complete the application form that will be in or will accompany the disclosure document. In addition, the information in this Quarterly Report concerning the IPO securities is not intended for public distribution in Australia.
