GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Formation of Genworth and Basis of Presentation
Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”) (formerly known as Genworth Financial, Inc.) was incorporated in Delaware in 2003 in preparation for an initial public offering (“IPO”) of Genworth’s common stock, which was completed on May 28, 2004. On April 1, 2013, Genworth Holdings completed a holding company reorganization pursuant to which Genworth Holdings became a direct, 100% owned subsidiary of a new public holding company that it had formed. The new public holding company was incorporated in Delaware on December 5, 2012, in connection with the reorganization, and was renamed Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth Financial”) upon the completion of the reorganization.
On October 21, 2016, Genworth
F
inancial entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Asia Pacific Global Capital Co., Ltd. (“Parent”), a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China and a subsidiary of China Oceanwide Holdings Group Co., Ltd., a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (together with its affiliates, “China Oceanwide”), and Asia Pacific Global Capital USA Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance USA Holdings LLC (“Asia Pacific Insurance”), which is a Delaware limited liability company and owned by China Oceanwide, pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into Genworth Financial with Genworth Financial surviving the merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance. China Oceanwide has agreed to acquire all of our outstanding common stock for a total transaction value of approximately $2.7 billion, or $5.43 per share in cash. At a special meeting held on March 7, 2017, Genworth Financial’s stockholders voted on and approved a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. The closing of the transaction remains subject to other closing conditions.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include on a consolidated basis the accounts of Genworth Financial and the affiliate companies in which it holds a majority voting interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
References to “Genworth Financial,” “Genworth,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto are, unless the context otherwise requires, to Genworth Financial, Inc. on a consolidated basis.
In the third quarter of 2020, we revised the product descriptions in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment to conform with industry convention and certain regulatory definitions. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
We operate our business through the following four3 operating segments:
U.S. Mortgage Insurance.
In the United States, we offer mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans at specified coverage percentages (“primary mortgage insurance”). We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination (“pool mortgage insurance”).
Australia Mortgage Insurance.
In Australia, we offer lender mortgage insurance products which predominantly insure prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“flow mortgage insurance”) and selectively provide mortgage insurance on a bulk basis (“bulk mortgage insurance”) that aids in the sale of mortgages to the capital markets and helps lenders manage capital and risk.

On March 3, 2021, we completed a sale of our entire ownership interest of approximately 52% in Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia Limited (“Genworth Australia”) through an underwritten agreement.

Unless otherwise indicated, references to the condensed consolidated balance sheets, the condensed consolidated statements of income, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, exclude amounts related to discontinued operations.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Until the secured promissory note to AXA is paid, annual dividends above $50
million from our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary are subject to mandatory prepayment conditions. 
We received net cash proceeds of $370 million from the sale of Genworth Australia in March 2021, of which $247 million was used to prepay a portion of the AXA promissory note, as noted above, including accrued interest. The remaining proceeds, along with Genworth Holdings’ unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, provide

and a one-time payment on an unrelated liability associated with underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business. See note 12 for additional details on the case. See note 14 for additional details related to the sale of our former lifestyle protection insurance business and amounts recorded related to discontinued operations.
We also evaluate other conditions and events and their relative significance in relation to our ability to meet our obligations. For example, Genworth Holdings expects to receive intercompany tax payments generated primarily from realized gains in the third quarter of 2020, among other transactions, and is expecting additional intercompany tax payments in future periods. In addition, we are exposed to risks associated with COVID-19, which has disrupted the global economy and financial markets, business operations, and consumer behavior and confidence.
 
Due to higher delinquencies and the impact to capital levels resulting from COVID-19, we do not expect to receive further dividends in 2020 from our mortgage insurance subsidiaries. In 2021, until the secured promissory note to AXA is paid, dividends above $
50
million from our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries are subject to mandatory prepayment conditions.
 In addition, the receipt of dividends 
and sale proceeds above certain thresholds from ou
r
Australian mort
gage insurance business are also subject to mandatory
 prepayment conditions.
Due to the uncertain macroeconomic conditions surrounding COVID-19, on September 30, 2020, Genworth and China Oceanwide agreed to a sixteenth waiver and agreement extending the merger deadline to no later than November 30, 2020. However, the consummation of this transaction is dependent on steps outside of our control; accordingly, the associated post-closing capital contributions from China Oceanwide have not been included in this evaluation.
Absent accessing additionalsufficient liquidity through third party sources and/or the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, Genworth Holdings expects to have a cash shortfall of approximately $215 million which raises doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year. While conditions and events occurring and expected to occur raise doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year, management’s plans alleviate this doubt.
Management

along with existing cash and cash equivalents, will provide Genworth Holdings sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the issue date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accordingly, we successfully executed a debt financing throughno longer need to determine whether our U.S. mortgage insurance business, a transaction we deemed probable in our previous assessment ofplans alleviate doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Becausemeet our financial commitments and obligations within the next year.
The remaining AXA promissory note, including expected future claims, is estimated to be $343 million and is due in
September 2022. In addition, Genworth Holdings has $400 million of senior notes due in both August 2023
and February 2024. To help address these debt obligations beyond the uncertainty regarding the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction,next year and reduce our overall indebtedness, we are actively taking additional steps toward raising capital by preparing for a possible public offeringplanned partial
sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions. In addition to a partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business through a public offering, we are also evaluating the possibility of the issuance of convertible, equity-linked securities or another transaction, prior to our senior notes maturing in September 2021. We believe an equity transaction involving our U.S. mortgage insurance business, if needed, is probable of being effectively executed given the value of the U.S. mortgage insurance business, the healthy conditions of the relevant markets, historical investor interest and our successful history of similar transactions, among other factors.

(2) Accounting Changes
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
On January 1, 2020,2021, we adopted new accounting guidance related to disclosure requirementssimplifying the accounting for defined benefit plans as part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) disclosure framework project.income taxes. The guidance adds, eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and modifies certain disclosure requirementsthe recognition of deferred tax liabilities for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans.outside basis differences. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the retrospective method or modified retrospective method for certain changes and prospective method for all other changes, which did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance related to fair value disclosure requirements as part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project. The guidance adds, eliminates and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance includes new disclosure requirements related to changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the prospective method for disclosures related to changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty and the retrospective method for all other disclosures. This accounting guidance did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements but impacted our fair value disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to reference rate reform, which was effective for us on January 1, 2020. The guidance provides temporary guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform, which includes the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This new guidance provides optional practical expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to investments, derivatives or other transactions affected by reference rate reform such as those that impact the assessment of derivative hedge effectiveness and contract modifications, to include continuing hedge accounting when certain critical terms of a hedging relationship change and modifying certain effectiveness assessments to exclude certain potential sources of ineffectiveness. In addition to the optional practical expedients, th
e
 guidance includes a general principle that permits an entity to consider contract modifications due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. We adopted this guidance prospectively and it did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. However, the amendments in this guidance may be elected over time through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur and therefore, this guidance may impact our procedures, including our process for assessing the effectiveness of our cash flow hedging relationships, determined on an individual hedge basis, as we implement measures to transition away from LIBO
R.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance related to accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. The guidance requires entities to recognize an allowance equal to its estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and applies to most financial instruments not measured at fair value, which primarily
12

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
includes our commercial mortgage loans, bank loan investments and reinsurance recoverables. The new guidance also requires the recognition of an allowance for expected credit losses as a liability in our consolidated balance sheet for off-balance sheet credit exposures, including commitments to fund bank loan investments, private placement investments and commercial mortgage loans. The new guidance did not have a significant impact on other assets not measured at fair value. The FASB also issued an amendment to the guidance allowing entities to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, which we did not elect.
For our commercial mortgage loans, we determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses utilizing an analytical model that provides various loss scenarios based on historical experience adjusted for current events, trends, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that result in a loss in the loan portfolio over the estimated life of the loans. We revert to historical credit loss experience for periods beyond forecasts that are reasonable and supportable. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis with consideration for debt service coverage ratio, debt-to-value, property-type and geographic location. Key inputs into the analytical model include exposure, weighted-average life, return, historical loss rates and forecast scenarios. Actual amounts realized over time could differ from the amounts estimated for the allowance for credit losses reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Commercial mortgage loans are written off against the allowance to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollectible. Accrued interest related to commercial mortgage loans is included in accrued investment income in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and had a carrying value of $24 million as of September 30, 2020. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest as uncollectible accrued interest related to our commercial mortgage loans are written off after 90 days and once collectability is determined to be uncertain and not probable. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses).
We adopted the guidance related to our investments carried at amortized cost using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $23 million, net of deferred taxes of $6 million, for commercial mortgage loans and bank loan investments, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings. See note 4 for additional disclosures related to commercial mortgage loans. We adopted the guidance related to our off-balance sheet credit exposures using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $1 million, included in other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings.
The allowance for credit losses for reinsurance recoverables is evaluated based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events and reasonable and supportable forecasts from both internal and external sources. The allowance is measured by reinsurer, taking into consideration the reinsured product type and collateral type, and is calculated based on an externally reported probability of default corresponding to the reinsurer’s credit rating and the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us for ceded claims on the underlying policies. Our estimate of the allowance reflects consideration for collateral securing the reinsurance agreements and expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off. We also consider other credit risk factors, including, among other factors, the historical frequency and severity of the associated insurance claims, aging of recoverables and regulatory, legal and economic factors, to determine if an additional incremental allowance for credit losses is required. No reversion adjustments are necessary as the starting point for our allowance for credit losses reflects historical loss experience covering the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us. If available facts and circumstances indicate the reinsurance recoverable does not reflect expectations consistent with the collective analysis, the reinsurance
13

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
recoverable is assessed on a separate basis. Write-offs of reinsurance recoverables are deducted from the allowance in the period the reinsurance recoverable is determined to be uncollectible. We adopted the guidance related to our reinsurance recoverables using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $31 million, net of deferred taxes of $9 million, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings. See note 8 for additional disclosures related to reinsurance recoverables.
The new guidance retains most of the existing impairment guidance for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities but amends the presentation of credit losses to reflect an allowance for credit losses as opposed to a
write-down of the amortized cost of the investment and permits the reversal of credit losses through net income (loss) when reassessing changes in credit losses each reporting period. Available-for-sale fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value is related to credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, we consider the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency/agencies and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Estimating the cash flows expected to be collected is a quantitative and qualitative process that incorporates information received from third-party sources along with internal assumptions and judgments. When developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected, we utilize an analytical model that provides for various loss scenarios and consider the industry sector, current levels of subordination, geographic location and other relevant characteristics of the security or underlying assets, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts. Losses are written off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible or when we intend to sell or expect we will be required to sell a security prior to recovering our amortized cost. We exclude accrued interest related to available-for-sale fixed maturity securities from the estimate of allowance for credit losses. Accrued interest is included in accrued investment income in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and had a carrying value of $
565
 million as of September 30, 2020. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest as uncollectible accrued interest related to our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are written off after 90 days and once
collectability
is determined to be uncertain and not probable. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses). We adopted the guidance related to our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities for which a previous other-than-temporary impairment was recognized prior to the date of adoption using the prospective method and the modified retrospective method for all other available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, which did not have any impact upon adoption.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance is currently effective for us on January 1, 2021 using the retrospective method or modified retrospective method for certain changes and prospective method for all other changes, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect a significant impact from this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new accounting guidance that significantly changes the recognition and measurement of long-duration insurance contracts and expands disclosure requirements, which impacts our life
insurance deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and liabilities. In accordance with the guidance, the more significant changes include:
 
14
assumptions will no longer be locked-in at contract inception and all cash flow assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits (except the discount rate) will be reviewed at least annually in the same period each year or more frequently if actual experience indicates a change is required. Changes will be recorded in net income (loss) using a retrospective approach with a cumulative catch-up adjustment by recalculating the net premium ratio (which will be capped at 100%) using actual historical and updated future cash flow assumptions;
the discount rate used to determine the liability for future policy benefits will be a current upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed-income instrument yield, which is generally interpreted to mean a single-A rated bond rate for the same duration, and is required to be reviewed quarterly, with changes in the discount rate recorded in other comprehensive income (loss);
the provision for adverse deviation and the premium deficiency test will be eliminated;

market risk benefits associated with deposit-type contracts will be measured at fair value with changes related to instrument-specific credit risk recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and remaining changes recorded in net income (loss);
 
the amortization method for DAC will generally be on a straight-line basis over the expected contract term; and
insurance deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”)disclosures will be greatly expanded to include significant assumptions and liabilities. In accordance with the guidance, the more significant changes include:

We expect this guidance to be effective for us on January 1, 2023 subject to the FASB finalizing an additional one-year delay, using the modified retrospective method for all topics except for market risk benefits, which is required to be applied using the retrospective method, with early adoption permitted, which we do not intend to elect. Given the nature and extent of the changes to our operations, this guidance is expected to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Under applicable accounting guidance, companies in a loss position are required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share. Therefore, as a result of our loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, we were required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding as the inclusion of shares for stock options, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights of 5.4 million would have been antidilutive to the calculation. If we had not incurred a loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, dilutive potential weighted-average common shares outstanding would have been 509.7 million.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the tables above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the decline in fair value is largely due to recent market volatility and is not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. For all securities in an unrealized loss position without

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 mortgage loans can be evaluated by reviewing both the debt-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 debt-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 debt-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
29

GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
based on “normalized” annual 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 is not 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.

(f) Limited Partnerships or Similar Entities
Limited partnerships are accounted for at fair value when our partnership interest is considered minor (generally less than 3% ownership in the limited partnerships) and we exercise no influence over operating and financial policies. If our ownership percentage exceeds that threshold, limited partnerships are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In applying either method, we use financial information provided by the investee generally on a one-to-three month lag. However, for limited partnerships measured at fair value, we consider whether an adjustment to the estimated fair value is necessary when the measurement date is not aligned with our reporting date.
Investments in limited partnerships or similar entities are generally considered VIEs when the equity group lacks sufficient financial control. Generally, these investments are limited partner or non-managing member equity investments in a widely held fund that is sponsored and managed by a reputable asset manager. We are not the primary beneficiary of any VIE investment in a limited partnership or similar entity. As of September 30,

the primary beneficiary of any VIE investment in a limited partnership or similar entity. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the total carrying value of these investments was $823$1,128 million and $616$1,018 million, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to the outstanding carrying value and future funding commitments. We have not contributed, and do not plan to contribute, any additional financial or other support outside of what is contractually obligated.​​​​​​​
(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 some 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” 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 cash flow 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.other comprehensive income (loss) (“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) forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in interest rates associated with future fixed rate bond purchases and/or interest income; and (v) other instruments to hedge the cash flows of various forecasted transactions.

Of this amount, $127$137 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 2057. During the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, we reclassified $7$2 million and $4 million, respectively,in both periods to net income (loss) in connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered probable of occurring.
Derivatives Not Designated As Hedges
We also enter into certain non-qualifying derivative instruments such as: (i) interest rate swaps and financial futures to mitigate interest rate risk as part of managing regulatory capital positions; (ii) equity index options, equity return swaps, interest rate swaps and financial futures to mitigate the risks associated with liabilities that have guaranteed minimum benefits, fixed index annuities and indexed universal life; (iii) interest rate caps where the hedging relationship does not qualify for hedge accounting; (iv) foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with non-functional currency investments held by certain foreign subsidiaries; and (v)(iii) foreign currency options and forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with future dividends, cash payments to AXA under a promissory note reported as discontinued operations and/or other cash flows from certain foreign subsidiaries to our holding company. Additionally, we provide GMWBs on certain variable annuities that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives. We also offer fixed index annuity and indexed universal life insurance products and have reinsurance agreements with certain features that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives.

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We have fixed maturity securities, short-term investments, equity securities, limited partnerships, 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.
Fixed maturity, short-term investments and equity securities
The fair value of fixed maturity securities, short-term investments and equity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities), an income approach may be used. In addition, a combination of the results from market and income approaches may be used to estimate fair value. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.
Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.
In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. 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 similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.
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, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.
For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. 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 utilize price caps for securities where the estimated market yield results in a valuation that may exceed the amount that would be received in a market transaction. When a security does not have an external rating, we assign the 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, any price caps utilized, liquidity premiums applied, and whether external ratings are available for our private placements to determine whether the spreads utilized would be considered observable inputs. We classify private securities without an external rating or public bond spread as Level 3. In general, a significant increase (decrease) in credit spreads would have resulted in a significant decrease (increase) in the fair value for our fixed maturity securities as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
For remaining securities priced using internal models, we determine fair value using an income approach. 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.
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 pricing services to determine whether our estimated values incorporate significant unobservable inputs that would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
A summary of the inputs used for our fixed maturity securities, short-term investments and equity securities based on the level in which instruments are classified is included below. We have combined certain classes of instruments together as the nature of the inputs is similar.
Level 1 measurements
Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation of exchange-traded equity securities include quoted prices for the identical instrument.
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.
Level 2 measurements
Fixed maturity securities
 
Third-party pricing services:
In estimating the fair value of fixed maturity securities, approximately 91%90% of our portfolio was priced using third-party pricing services as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. These pricing services utilize industry-standard valuation techniques that include market-based approaches, income-based approaches, a combination of market-based and income-based approaches or other proprietary, internally generated models as part of the valuation processes. These third-party pricing vendors maximize the use of publicly available data inputs to generate valuations for each asset class. Priority and type of inputs used may change frequently as certain inputs may be more direct drivers of valuation at the time of pricing. Examples of significant inputs incorporated by pricing services may include sector and issuer spreads, seasoning, capital structure, security optionality, collateral data, prepayment assumptions, default assumptions, delinquencies, debt covenants, benchmark yields, trade data, dealer quotes, credit ratings, maturity and weighted-average life. We conduct regular meetings with our pricing services for the purpose of understanding the methodologies, techniques and inputs used by the third-party pricing providers.

The fair value of these fixed maturity securities was $1,299$1,477 million and $673$749 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. Internally modeled securities are primarily private fixed maturity securities where we use market observable inputs such as an interest rate yield curve, published credit spreads for similar securities based on the external ratings of the instrument and related industry sector of the issuer. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps and liquidity premiums are established using inputs from market participants.
Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active.
Securities lending 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 pricing services.

Certain private fixed maturity securities are valued using an internal model using market observable inputs such as the interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar securities, which includes significant unobservable inputs. Additionally, we may apply certain price caps and liquidity premiums in the valuation of private fixed maturity securities. Price caps are established using inputs from market participants. For structured securities, the primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical assets, or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, weighted-average coupon, weighted-average maturity, issuer rating, structure of the security, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, collateral type, current and forecasted loss severity, average delinquency rates, vintage of the loans, geographic region, debt service coverage ratios, payment priority with the tranche, benchmark yields and credit spreads. The fair value of our Level 3 fixed maturity securities priced using internal models was $3,314$3,242 million as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.

Equity securities.
The primary inputs to the valuation include broker quotes where the underlying inputs are unobservable and for internal models, structure of the security and issuer rating.
Net asset value
Limited partnerships
Limited partnerships are valued based on comparable market transactions, discounted future cash flows, quoted market prices and/or estimates using the most recent data available for the underlying instrument. We utilize the net asset value (“NAV”) from the underlying fund statements as a practical expedient for fair value.
Derivatives
We consider 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 in measuring fair value for our derivative instruments. As a result of these counterparty arrangements, we determined that any adjustment for credit risk would not be material and we have not recorded any incremental adjustment for our non-performance risk or the non-performance risk of the derivative counterparty for our derivative assets or liabilities.
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.
Interest rate caps.
The valuation of interest rate caps is determined using an income approach. The primary inputs into the valuation represent the forward interest rate swap curve, forward interest rate volatility and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivatives being classified as Level 2.
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 observable inputs, and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2.
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 rates, equity index volatility, equity index and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative. 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 3. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, a significant increase (decrease) in the equity index volatility discussed above would have resulted in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
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 0 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.
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, foreign currency exchange rate volatility and time value component associated with the optionality in the derivative, which are generally considered observable inputs and results in the derivative being classified as Level 2. 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.
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. We determine fair value using an internal model based on the various inputs noted above.
Non-performance risk is integrated into the discount rate used to value GMWB liabilities. Our discount rate used to determine fair value of our GMWB liabilities includes market credit spreads above U.S. Treasury rates to reflect an adjustment for the non-performance risk of the GMWB liabilities. As of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the impact of non-performance risk resulted in a lower fair value of our GMWB liabilities of $85$50 million and $62$66 million, respectively.
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. Additionally, we consider lapse and utilization assumptions to be significant unobservable inputs. An increase in our lapse assumption would decrease the fair value of the GMWB liability, whereas an increase in our utilization rate would increase the fair value. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.
Fixed index annuity embedded derivatives
We have fixed indexed annuity products where interest is credited to the policyholder’s account balance based on equity index changes. This feature is required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach where the present value of the excess cash flows above the guaranteed cash flows is used to determine the value attributed to the equity index feature. The inputs used in determining the fair value include policyholder behavior (lapses and withdrawals), near-term equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. As a result of our assumptions for policyholder behavior and expected future interest credited being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments

as Level 3. As lapses and withdrawals increase, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As expected future interest credited decreases, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Indexed universal life embedded derivatives
We have indexed universal life insurance products where interest is credited to the policyholder’s account balance based on equity index changes. This feature is required to be bifurcated as an embedded derivative and recorded at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach where the present value of the excess cash flows above the guaranteed cash flows is used to determine the value attributed to the equity index feature. The inputs used in determining the fair value include policyholder behavior (lapses and withdrawals), near-term equity index volatility, expected future interest credited, forward interest rates and an adjustment to the discount rate to incorporate non-performance risk and risk margins. As a result of our assumptions for policyholder behavior and expected future interest credited being considered significant unobservable inputs, we classify these instruments as Level 3. As lapses and withdrawals increase, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As expected future interest credited decreases, the value of our embedded derivative liability will decrease. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, a significant change in the unobservable inputs discussed above would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

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 and equity securities and purchases, issuances and settlements of derivative instruments.
Issuances presented for GMWB embedded derivative liabilities 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. Issuances for fixed index annuity and indexed universal life embedded derivative liabilities represent the amount of the premium received that is attributed to the value of the embedded derivative. Settlements of embedded derivatives 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) loss” in the tables presented above.

Assets and Liabilities Not Required to Be Carried at Fair Value
Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements at fair value are not included in the following disclosure of fair value. Such items include cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, short-term investments, investment securities, separate accounts, securities held as collateral and derivative instruments. Apart from certain of our borrowings and certain marketable securities, few of the instruments 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 liability for policy and contract claims represents our current best estimate; however, there may be future adjustments to this estimate and related assumptions. Such adjustments, reflecting any variety of new and adverse trends, could be significant, and result in increases in reserves by an amount that could be material to our results of operations and financial condition and liquidity. In addition, loss reserves recorded on new delinquencies in our U.S. mortgage insurance business have a high degree of estimation, particularly due to the level of uncertainty regarding whether borrowers in forbearance will ultimately cure or result in a claim payment.
For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the favorable development of $389$229 million related to insured events of prior years was primarily attributable to our long-term care insurance business largely from favorable claim terminations mostly attributable to higher mortality, favorable development on prior year incurred but not reported claims and favorable experience on pending claims that terminated before becomingdid not become an active claim. These decreases were partially offset by a strengtheninghigher reserves of incurred but not reported reserves.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the liability$93 million to account for policychanges to incidence and contract claims increased $415 million largely related to our U.S. mortgage insurance business, principally attributable to a significant increase in the number of new delinquenciesmortality experience driven largely by borrower forbearance resulting from COVID-19. In addition, existing reserves were strengthened by $28 million in the current year primarily driven by unfavorable cure emergence impacting claim frequency and severity offset by net benefits from cures and paid claims. The increase was also attributable to our long-term care insurance business primarily attributable to new claims,

which includes higher new claims frequency as a result of the aging of the in-force block, as well as higher severity, partially offset by an increase in claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality and favorable development on incurred but not reported claims in the current year. Given the lower new claim counts submitted during COVID-19, incurred but not reported reserves were strengthened by $61 million reflecting our assumption that new claim incidence during this period will ultimately return to normal levels, partially offsetting the favorable development on incurred but not reported claims.

We have several significant reinsurance transactions (“Reinsurance Transactions”) with Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company (“UFLIC”), an affiliate of our former parent, General Electric Company (“GE”). In the Reinsurance Transactions, we ceded to UFLIC in-force blocks of structured settlements issued prior to 2004, substantially all of our in-force blocks of variable annuities issued prior to 2004 and a block of long-term care insurance policies that we reinsured in 2000 from legal entities now a part of Brighthouse Life Insurance Company. Although we remain directly liable under these contracts and policies as the ceding insurer, the Reinsurance Transactions have the effect of transferring the financial results of the reinsured blocks to UFLIC. To secure the payment of its obligations to us under the reinsurance agreements governing the Reinsurance Transactions, UFLIC has established trust accounts to maintain an aggregate amount of assets with a statutory

book value at least equal to the statutory general account reserves attributable to the reinsured business less an amount required to be held in certain claims-paying accounts. A trustee administers the trust accounts and we are permitted to withdraw from the trust accounts amounts due to us pursuant to the terms of the reinsurance agreements that are not otherwise paid by UFLIC. In addition, pursuant to a Capital Maintenance Agreement, GE is obligated to maintain sufficient capital in UFLIC to maintain UFLIC’s risk-based capital (“RBC”) at not less than 150% of its company action level, as defined by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”).
As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had a reinsurance recoverable of $13,418 million and $13,752 million, respectively, with UFLIC. In March 2019, upon UFLIC’s request, A.M. Best withdrew UFLIC’s credit rating. There was no impact to us from this action as UFLIC has trust accounts and a guarantee from its parent, as discussed above, and is sufficiently collateralized. Accordingly, the reinsurance recoverable with UFLIC is fully collectible and no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of September 30, 2020.
Reinsurance recoverables are considered past due when contractual payments have not been received from the reinsurer by the required payment date. Claims submitted for payment are generally due in less than one year. As of September 30, 2020, we did 0t have any reinsurance recoverables past due, except for Scottish Re US Inc. (“Scottish Re”), a reinsurance company domiciled in Delaware. On March 6, 2019, Scottish Re was ordered into receivership for the purposes of rehabilitation by the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The proposed Plan of Rehabilitation of Scottish Re was filed on June 30, 2020; however, we expect a revised Plan of Rehabilitation to be filed by March 16, 2021 with any objections required to be submitted by April 15, 2021. We do not know what deadlines will be imposed related to the Court of Chancery’s consideration of the proposed plan and no hearing date has been scheduled. As of September 30, 2020, amounts past due related to Scottish Re were $16 million, all of which was included in the allowance for credit losses. We will continue to monitor the plan of rehabilitation and expected recovery of the claims balance.
Mortgage Insurance—Excess of Loss Reinsurance
On October 22, 2020, our U.S. mortgage insurance business obtained $350 million of excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re 2020-1 Ltd. on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from January 2020 through August 2020. Triangle Re 2020-1 Ltd. is a VIE and special purpose insurer domiciled in Bermuda and financed the reinsurance coverage by issuing mortgage insurance-linked notes to unaffiliated investors. The notes are non-recourse to us and our affiliates. The excess of loss reinsurance coverage is fully collateralized by a reinsurance trust account which requires the proceeds from the sale of the mortgage
insurance-linked
notes be deposited into the trust and be invested in eligible investments in accordance with the reinsurance trust agreement. The collateralized trust serves to cover reinsurance obligations if losses exceed our first loss tier. For the reinsurance coverage, we retain the first layer of aggregate losses up to $522 million. Triangle Re 2020-1 Ltd. provides 67% reinsurance coverage for losses above our retained first layer up to $350 million.

(11)(10) Segment Information
We have the following 43 operating business segments: U.S. Mortgage Insurance; Australia Mortgage Insurance; U.S. Life Insurance (which includes our long-term care insurance, life insurance and fixed annuities businesses); and Runoff (which includes the results of
non-strategic
products which have not been actively sold since 2011). In addition to our fourthree operating business segments, we also have Corporate and Other activities which include debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, eliminations of inter-segment transactions and the results of other businesses that are managed outside of our operating segments, including certain smaller international mortgage insurance businesses and discontinued operations.
We tax our international businesses at their local jurisdictional tax rates and our domestic businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21%. OurEach segment tax methodology applies the respective jurisdictional or domestic tax rate to the pre-tax income (loss) of each segment, which is then adjusted in each segment to reflect the unique tax attributes of items unique to that segment, such as foreign withholding taxes and permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and local tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other activities.
The annually-determined tax rates and adjustments to each segment’s provision for income taxes are estimates which are subject to review and could change from year to year.
We use the same accounting policies and procedures to measure segment income (loss) and assets as our consolidated net income and assets. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders.” We define adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the
after-tax
effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), goodwill impairments, gains

(losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items. Gains (losses) on insurance block transactions are defined as gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of
non-recourse
funding obligations, early termination fees for other financing restructuring and/or resulting gains (losses) on reinsurance restructuring for certain blocks of business. 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 estimated future credit losses, 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. Goodwill impairments, gainsGains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions and restructuring costs are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss)

available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders because, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. Infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items are also excluded from adjusted 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 adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted 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. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted 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 adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.
Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21% tax rate for our domestic segments and a 30% tax rate for our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment and are net of the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests.rate. Net investment gains (losses) are also adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, weWe repurchased $84$146 million and $14 million principal amount of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes with 2021 maturity dates for a
pre-tax
gain (loss) of $4 million.$(4) million and $1 million in the first quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. In January 2020, we paid a

(12)(11) Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Litigation and Regulatory Matters
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, claims payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, product 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,business, such as captive reinsurance arrangements with lenders and contract underwriting services, violations of the Real Estate Settlement and Procedures Act of 1974 or related state anti-inducement
laws, and mortgage insurance policy rescissions and curtailments, and breaching fiduciary or other duties to

customers, including but not limited to breach of customer information. 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, post-closing obligations associated with previous dispositions and securities lawsuits. 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.
In January 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a shareholder derivative suit filed by International Union of Operating Engineers Local No. 478 Pension Fund, Richard L. Salberg and David Pinkoski in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case was captioned
Int’l Union of Operating Engineers Local No.
 478 Pension Fund, et al v. McInerney, et al.al
. In February 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a second shareholder derivative suit filed by Martin Cohen in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case was captioned
Cohen v. McInerney, et al
. On February 23, 2016, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware consolidated these derivative suits under the caption
Genworth Financial, Inc. Consolidated Derivative
Litigation
. On March 28, 2016, plaintiffs in the consolidated action filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties concerning Genworth’s long-term care insurance reserves and concerning Genworth’s former Australian mortgage insurance business, including our plans for an IPO of the business and seeks unspecified damages, costs, attorneys’ fees and such equitable relief as the Court may deem proper. The amended consolidated complaint also added Genworth’s then current chief financial officer as a defendant, based on alleged conduct in her former capacity as Genworth’s controller and principal accounting officer. We moved to dismiss the consolidated action on May 27, 2016. Thereafter, plaintiffs filed a substantially similar second amended complaint which we moved to dismiss on September 16, 2016. The motion is fully briefed and awaiting disposition by the Court. The action iswas stayed pending the completionoutcome of the proposed China Oceanwide transaction. On January 14, 2021, the parties submitted a joint letter to the Court requesting that the action remain stayed until April 15, 2021, or until the closing or termination of the merger in the event the merger closed or was terminated prior to April 15, 2021. On April 6, 2021, Genworth Financial terminated the proposed China Oceanwide transaction, thereby lifting the stay. We intend to vigorously defend this action.
In October 2016, Genworth Financial, its current chief chie
f
executive officer, its former chief executive officer, its then current chief financial officer, its then former chief financial officer and current and former members of its board of directors were named in a shareholder derivative suit filed by Esther Chopp in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. The case is captioned
Chopp v. McInerney, et al.al
. The complaint alleges that Genworth’s board of directors wrongfully refused plaintiff’s demand to commence litigation on behalf of Genworth and asserts claims for breaches of fiduciary duties, waste, contribution and indemnification, and unjust enrichment concerning Genworth’s long-term care insurance reserves and concerning Genworth’s former Australian mortgage insurance business, including our plans for an IPO of the business, and seeks unspecified damages, costs, attorneys’ fees and such equitable relief as the Court may deem proper. We filed a motion to dismiss on November 14, 2016. The action iswas stayed pending the completionoutcome of the proposed China Oceanwide transaction.
In December 2017, Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) and Genworth Financial were named as defendants in an action captioned
AXA S.A. v. Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC et al.,
in the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts of England and Wales. In the action, AXA

transaction. On January 14, 2021, the parties submitted a joint letter to the Court requesting that the action remain stayed until April 15, 2021, or until the closing or termination of the merger in the event the merger closed or was terminated prior to April 15, 2021. On April 6, 2021, Genworth Financial terminated the proposed China Oceanwide transaction, thereby lifting the stay. We intend to vigorously defend this action. 
initially sought in excess of £28 million on an indemnity provided for in the 2015 agreement pursuant to which Genworth sold to AXA 2 insurance companies, Financial Insurance Company Limited (“FICL”) and Financial Assurance Company Limited (“FACL”), relating to alleged remediation it has paid to customers who purchased payment protection insurance (“PPI”). The hearing on liability and subrogation matters commenced on November 4, 2019 and concluded on November 12, 2019. On December 6, 2019, the Court issued its judgment, ruling in AXA’s favor with respect to its claim against Genworth for 90% of AXA’s payment of PPI mis-selling losses. The Court further ruled, among other matters, that Genworth is not entitled to be subrogated to the rights of FICL/FACL against Santander Cards UK Limited or require AXA to assert reasonable defenses with respect to PPI mis-selling claims. In January 2020, we made an interim payment to AXA for approximately $134 million, which was previously accrued in December 2019 in connection with the aforementioned Court ruling. On June 8, 2020, AXA amended its claim and updated its demand to £499 million, excluding an alleged claim for a tax gross up for a possible additional amount of £117 million or more. The damages hearing took place from June 15, 2020 through June 23, 2020. On July 20, 2020, Genworth and GFIH entered into a settlement agreement with AXA pursuant to which the parties have agreed, pending satisfaction of certain conditions, not to enforce, appeal or set aside the liability judgment of December 6, 2019 and the subsequently issued damages judgment of July 27, 2020. See note 14 for additional details on the terms of the settlement with AXA, the sale of our former lifestyle protection insurance business and amounts recorded related to loss from discontinued operations.
In September 2018, Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company (“GLAIC”), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned
TVPX ARX INC., as Securities Intermediary for Consolidated Wealth Management, LTD. on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. Plaintiff alleges unlawful and excessive cost of insurance charges were imposed on policyholders. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, alleging that Genworth improperly considered
non-mortality
factors when calculating cost of insurance rates and failed to decrease cost of insurance charges in light of improved expectations of future mortality, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages, costs, and equitable relief. On October 29, 2018, we filed a motion to enjoin the case in the Middle District of Georgia, and a motion to dismiss and motion to stay in the Eastern District of Virginia. We moved to enjoin the prosecution of the Eastern District of Virginia action on the basis that it involves claims released in a prior nationwide class action settlement (the “McBride settlement”) that was approved by the Middle District of Georgia. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on November 13, 2018. On December 6, 2018, we moved the Middle District of Georgia for leave to file our counterclaim, which alleges that plaintiff breached the covenant not to sue contained in the prior settlement agreement by filing its current action. On March 15, 2019, the Middle District of Georgia granted our motion to enjoin and denied our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. As such, plaintiff is enjoined from pursuing its class action in the Eastern District of Virginia. On March 29, 2019, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of its appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit from the order granting our motion to enjoin. On March 29, 2019, we filed our notice of cross-appeal in the Middle District of Georgia, notifying the Court of our cross-appeal to the Eleventh Circuit from the portion of the order denying our motion for leave to file our counterclaim. On April 8, 2019, the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed the case without prejudice, with leave for plaintiff to refile an amended complaint only if a final appellate Court decision vacates the injunction and reverses the Middle District of Georgia’s opinion. On May 21, 2019, plaintiff filed its appeal and memorandum in support in the Eleventh Circuit. We filed our response to plaintiff’s appeal memorandum on July 3, 2019. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral argument on plaintiff’s appeal and our cross-appeal on April 21, 2020. On May 26, 2020, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the Middle District of Georgia’s order enjoining Plaintiff’s class action and remanded the case back to the Middle District of Georgia for further factual development as to

whether Genworth has altered how it calculates or charges cost of insurance since the McBride settlement. The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals did not reach a decision on Genworth’s counterclaim. We intend to continue to vigorously defend the dismissal of this action.
In September 2018, Genworth Financial, Genworth Holdings, Genworth North America Corporation, GFIHGenworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) and Genworth Life Insurance Company (“GLIC”) were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware captioned
Richard F. Burkhart, William E. Kelly, Richard S. Lavery, Thomas R. Pratt, Gerald Green, individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly situated v. Genworth et al
. Plaintiffs allege that GLIC paid dividends to its parent and engaged in certain reinsurance transactions causing it to maintain inadequate capital capable of meeting its obligations to GLIC policyholders and agents. The complaint alleges causes of action for intentional fraudulent transfer and constructive fraudulent transfer, and seeks injunctive relief. We moved to dismiss this action in December 2018. On January 29, 2019, plaintiffs exercised their right to amend their complaint. On March 12, 2019, we moved to dismiss plaintiffs’ amended complaint. On April 26, 2019,

plaintiffs filed a memorandum in opposition to our motion to dismiss, which we replied to on June 14, 2019. On August 7, 2019, plaintiffs filed a motion seeking to prevent proceeds that GFIH expected to receive from the then planned sale of its shares in Genworth MI Canada Inc. (“Genworth Canada”) from being transferred out of GFIH. On September 11, 2019, plaintiffs filed a renewed motion seeking the same relief from their August 7, 2019 motion with an exception that allowed GFIH to transfer $450 million of expected proceeds from the sale of Genworth Canada through a dividend to Genworth Holdings to allow the
pay-off
of a senior secured term loan facility (“Term Loan”) dated March 7, 2018 among Genworth Holdings as the borrower, GFIH as the limited guarantor and the lending parties thereto. Oral arguments on our motion to dismiss and plaintiffs’ motion occurred on October 21, 2019, and plaintiffs’ motion was denied. On January 31, 2020, the Court granted in part our motion to dismiss, dismissing claims relating to $395 million in dividends GLIC paid to its parent from 2012 to 2014 (out of the $410 million in total dividends subject to plaintiffs’ claims). The Court denied the balance of the motion to dismiss leaving a claim relating to $15 million in dividends and unquantified claims relating to the 2016 termination of a reinsurance transaction. On March 27, 2020, we filed our answer to plaintiffs’ amended complaint. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
In January 2019, Genworth Financial and GLIC were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned
Jerome Skochin, Susan Skochin, and Larry Huber, individually and on behalf of all other persons similarly situated v. Genworth Financial, Inc. and Genworth Life Insurance Company
. Plaintiffs seek to represent long-term care insurance policyholders, alleging that Genworth made misleading and inadequate disclosures regarding premium increases for long-term care insurance policies. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, fraud, fraudulent inducement and violation of Pennsylvania’s Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law (on behalf of the two named plaintiffs who are Pennsylvania residents), and seeks damages (including statutory treble damages under Pennsylvania law) in excess of $5 million. On March 12, 2019, we moved to dismiss plaintiffs’ complaint. On March 26, 2019, plaintiffs filed a memorandum in opposition to our motion to dismiss, which we replied to on April 1, 2019. In July 2019, the Court heard oral arguments on our motion to dismiss. On August 29, 2019, the Court issued an order granting our motion to dismiss the claim with regard to breach of contract, but denied our motion with regard to fraudulent omission, fraudulent inducement and violation of the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection law. On September 20, 2019, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, dropping Genworth Financial as a defendant and reducing their causes of action from four counts to two: fraudulent inducement by omission and violation of Pennsylvania’s Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law (on behalf of the two named plaintiffs who are Pennsylvania residents). The parties engaged in a mediation process and, on October 22, 2019, reached an agreement in principle to settle this matter on a

nationwide basis. On November 22, 2019, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, adding Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York as a defendant and expanding the class to all fifty states and the District of Columbia. On January 15, 2020, the Court preliminarily approved the settlement and set the final approval hearing for July 10, 2020. On March 26, 2020, the parties filed a Joint Motion for Leave to Amend certain aspects of the settlement, which was approved by the Court on March 31, 2020. On April 10, 2020, the Indiana Department of Insurance filed a Motion to Intervene and Motion to Stay, seeking to stay the current schedule for class settlement and delay the date of the final approval hearing in light of disruptions caused by COVID-19. On April 14, 2020, the class administrator sent out class notices to potential settlement class members. On April 17, 2020, plaintiffs filed their opposition to the Indiana Department of Insurance’s motion to stay. The Court conducted final approval hearings on July 10, 2020, July 14, 2020 and September 11, 2020. Based on the Court’s preliminary approval of the settlement, we do not anticipate the outcome of this matter to have a material adverse impact on our results of operations or financial position. If the court does not approve the final settlement, we intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
On April 6, 2020, GLAIC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, captioned
captioned Brighton Trustees, LLC, on behalf of and as trustee for Diamond LS Trust; and Bank of Utah, solely as securities intermediary for Diamond LS Trust; on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company.Company
. On May 13, 2020, GLAIC was also named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, captioned
Ronald L. Daubenmier, individually and on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company
. On June 26, 2020, plaintiffs filed a consent motion to consolidate the two cases. On June 30, 2020, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia issued an order consolidating the Brighton Trustees and Daubenmier cases. On July 17, 2020, the Brighton Trustees and Daubenmier plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint, alleging that GLAIC subjected policyholders to an unlawful and excessive cost of insurance increase. The consolidated complaint asserts claims for breach of contract and injunctive relief, and seeks damages in excess of $5 million. On August 31, 2020, we filed an answer to plaintiffs’ consolidated complaint. The trial is scheduled to commence on April 1, 2022. We intend to continue to vigorously defend this action.
In January 2021, GLIC and Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia captioned
Judy Halcom, Hugh Penson, Harold Cherry, and Richard Landino, individually, and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. Genworth Life Insurance Company and Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York

million. The trial is scheduled to commence on June 1, 2022. We intend to vigorously defend this action. 
In January 2021, GLAIC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, was named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon captioned
Patsy H.
McMillan, Individually and On Behalf Of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Genworth Life and Annuity Insurance Company

At this time we cannot determine or predict the ultimate outcome of any of the pending legal and regulatory matters specifically identified above or the likelihood of potential future legal and regulatory matters against us. Except as disclosed above, we are not able to provide an estimate or range of reasonably possible losses related to these matters. Therefore, 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.

(13) Noncontrolling Interests
Prior to the sale of Genworth Australia on March 3, 2021, we held approximately 52% of its common shares on a consolidated basis through subsidiaries and accounted for the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests

as a component of total equity. Upon sale closing, we deconsolidated Genworth Australia, which included the
de-
recognition
of the carrying value of ownership interest attributable to noncontrolling interests of $500 million from total equity in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021.
(14) Discontinued Operations
As discussed in note 1, on March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of Genworth Australia through an underwritten agreement and received approximately AUD483 million ($370 million) in net cash proceeds. In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized an
after-tax
loss on sale of $3 million. The following table provides a summary of the loss on sale for the three months ended March 31, 2021 recorded in connection with the disposition of Genworth Australia:

Represents the aggregate of the net cash proceeds received upon sale closing plus the adjusted carrying amount of noncontrolling interests in the subsidiary sold.
(3)
Consists primarily of $160 million of cumulative losses on foreign currency translation adjustments, partially offset by cumulative unrealized investment gains of $29 million and deferred tax gains of $22 million.
In addition, we recorded an

losses, including from the distributor responsible for the sale of the policies, we have certain rights to share in those recoveries to recoup payments for the underlying
mis-selling
losses. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we have not recorded any amounts associated with recoveries from third parties.

Strategic Update
We continue to focus on improvingexecuting our strategic plan to raise liquidity to address our future debt maturities, other near-term liabilities and financial obligations and create long-term shareholder value. Our plan builds on actions we have taken over the last several years to strengthen our financial position, including the sale of Genworth MI Canada Inc., our former Canada mortgage insurance business, performance, addressingthe completion of a debt offering through our wholly-owned U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc. (“GMHI”), the settlement agreement reached with AXA and most recently, the sale of Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia Limited (“Genworth Australia”), our former Australian mortgage insurance business.
We remain focused on preparing for a planned partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions, as well as the satisfaction of various conditions and approvals. We also remain open to other potential strategic alternatives to address our future holding company debt maturities and financial leverageobligations. In assessing our strategic options, we are considering, among other factors, the level of, and increasing financial and strategic flexibility across the organization. Our strategy includes maximizing our opportunitiesrestrictions contained in, our mortgage insurance businessesexisting indebtedness, tax considerations, the views of regulators and stabilizingrating agencies, and the performance and prospects of our U.S. life insurance businesses. In addition, we have taken steps, and may take additional actions to align our expense structure with our reduced business activities. Expense reduction initiatives completed to date are anticipated to result in annualized savings of approximately $50 million.
China Oceanwide Transaction
On October 21, 2016, Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth Financial”Genworth”) entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Asia Pacific Global Capital Co., Ltd. (“Parent”), a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China and a subsidiary of China Oceanwide, Holdings Group Co., Ltd., a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (together with its affiliates, “China Oceanwide”), and Asia Pacific Global Capital USA Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance USA Holdings LLC (“Asia Pacific Insurance”), which is a Delaware limited liability company and owned by China Oceanwide, pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into Genworth Financial with Genworth Financial surviving the merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance (the “Merger”). China Oceanwide has agreed to acquire all of our outstanding common stock for a total transaction value of approximately $2.7 billion, or $5.43 per share in cash. At a special meeting held on March 7, 2017, Genworth Financial’s stockholders voted on and approved a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement.Insurance.
On September 30,January 4, 2021, Genworth announced that an extension of the then current December 31, 2020 Genworth, ParentMerger Agreement end date would not be sought given uncertainty around the completion and timing of the remaining steps required to close the transaction. The Merger Sub entered into a sixteenth waiver and agreement (“Sixteenth Waiver and Agreement”) pursuant to whichAgreement between Genworth and Parent each agreedChina Oceanwide remained in effect at that time, although either party was able to waive its rightterminate the Merger Agreement. On April 6, 2021, Genworth’s Board of Directors determined to terminate the Merger Agreement, and abandon the Merger to the earliest date of: (i) November 30, 2020,
83

(ii) failure by the Parent to approve final documents provided by Genworth for the sale of Genworth,based on its subsidiaries or a portion of its assets or (iii) in the event that after September 30, 2020 any governmental entity imposes or requires, any term, condition, obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, remedy or other action that applies to the Merger Agreement, that is materially and adversely different, individually or in the aggregate, from the conditions set forth by the governmental entities with respect to the Merger that were in effect on the date of the Sixteenth Waiver and Agreement.
In addition, as part of the conditions set forth in the Sixteenth Waiver and Agreement, China Oceanwide agreed to submit to Genworth satisfactory evidence by October 31, 2020 confirming that approximately $1.0 billion is available to China Oceanwide from sources in Mainland China and debt financing of up to $1.8 billion is available from sources outside of Mainland China through Hony Capital and/or other acceptable third parties. In aggregate, these funding sources would provide China Oceanwide the necessary funds to acquire Genworth at the agreed upon purchase price of $5.43 per share. China Oceanwide has made significant progress on the Hony Capital funding and has provided satisfactory documentation to Genworth indicating that Hony Capital expects to be able to finalize the $1.8 billion financing in November 2020, andbelief that China Oceanwide is continuing to work diligently with the goal of closing the transaction by November 30, 2020, subject to timely receipt of outstanding regulatory re-approvals, confirmations and/or clearances. China Oceanwide is also gathering funds in Mainland China to provide the remaining amount required to pay for the total Genworth purchase price of $5.43 per share.
Genworth also has the right, in connection with the conditions set forth in the Sixteenth Waiver and Agreement, to issue debt or other financing instruments, and pursue other strategic transactions, such as transactions to sell some or all of its interests in its mortgage insurance businesses, as needed to meet its short-term financial obligations, including butwould not limited to, the AXA promissory note and debt of approximately $1.0 billion maturing in 2021. For additional details on the AXA litigation, the associated settlement agreement and issuance of the promissory note to AXA, see notes 12 and 14 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements.” If China Oceanwide disagrees with any steps that Genworth takes to meet its financial obligations, it has the right to terminate the transaction in its sole discretion.
Under the Sixteenth Waiver and Agreement, if the parties are unable to agree on a closing date following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to closing, each party has the right to terminate the Merger Agreement. If the parties are unable to satisfy the closing conditions by November 30, 2020, and are unable to reach an agreement as to a further extension of the deadline, then either party may terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms.
The China Oceanwide transaction has received all U.S. regulatory approvals neededbe able to close the transaction subjectwithin a reasonable timeframe and in order for Genworth to confirmation from the Delaware Department of Insurance that the acquisition of Genworth’s Delaware-domiciled insurer may proceed under the existing approval. Genworth recently received confirmation from the U.S. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) that the transaction may close under FINRA rules prior to receivingpursue its final approval.strategic plan without restriction and without uncertainty regarding its ultimate ownership. In addition, the GSEs recently re-approved the transaction, subject to certain conditions and the North Carolina Department of Insurance extended its previously granted approval through January 24, 2021. China Oceanwide needs to receive clearance for currency conversion and transfer of funds from China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and the Chinese National Development and Reform Commission needs to confirm the extension of the acceptance of filing with respect to the transaction, as its prior acceptance of filing has expired. All other required approvals and clearances have been secured.
In September 2020, the GSEs imposed certain conditions and restrictions on our U.S. mortgage insurance business with respect to its capital. These capital restrictions will remain in effect during the pendency of the China Oceanwide transaction, and if the China Oceanwide transaction is completed, thereafter until certain conditions are met. See “Item 2—U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment—trends and conditions” for additional details.
In connection with the Merger, China Oceanwide and Genworth have agreed on a capital investment plan under which China Oceanwide and/or its affiliates will contribute an aggregate of $1.5 billion to Genworth over
84

time following consummation of the Merger. This contribution is subject to the closingspite of the Merger andAgreement termination, we continue to believe that there are significant opportunities to address critical societal needs outside the receipt of required regulatory approvals and clearances. The $1.5 billion contribution would be used to further improve our financial stability, which could include retiring future debt obligations or enabling future growth opportunities. China Oceanwide has no future obligation and has informed us that it has no current intention, to contribute additional capital to support our legacyUnited States by bringing long-term care insurance business other than agreedsolutions to the aging population in connection with the regulatory approvals for the China Oceanwide transaction.
China.
If the China Oceanwide transaction is completed, we will be a standalone subsidiary and our senior management team will continue to lead the business from our current headquarters in Richmond, Virginia. We intend to maintain our existing portfolio of businesses. Except for the specific monitoring and reporting required under the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States data security risk mitigation plan, our day-to-day operations are not expected to change as a result of this transaction.
Strategic Alternatives
If the China Oceanwide transaction is not completed, we will continue to explore strategic alternatives and financing options to address our ongoing challenges. Given the delay in closing the China Oceanwide transaction, we have taken and will continue to take steps to address our near-term liabilities, which include a secured promissory note issued to AXA under the settlement agreement reached on July 20, 2020 and approximately $1.0 billion in debt maturing in 2021.
These steps included a debt offering from Genworth Mortgage Holdings, Inc. (“GMHI”), Genworth’s indirect wholly-owned mortgage insurance subsidiary. On August 21, 2020, GMHI issued $750 million of its 6.50% senior notes due in 2025 (“2025 Senior Notes”). A dividend of $436 million was paid to Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings) from the net cash proceeds of the offering with the remaining amount retained by GMHI to address GSE requirements. The dividend received from GMHI provides liquidity to address Genworth Holdings’ debt maturing in February 2021. Due to the uncertainty regarding the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, we are continuing to take steps toward raising capital by preparing for a possible public offering of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions. Changes to our financial projections, including changes that anticipate planned strategic transactions, may negatively impact our ability to realize certain foreign tax credits or other deferred tax assets and may impair our ability to utilize beneficial consolidated tax rules, all of which could result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations. 
As a result of the performance of our long-term care and life insurance businesses, as well as the resulting lack of potential dividend capacity from our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries, our financial strength ratings have been downgraded. Absent any alternative commitment of external capital, or other proactive actions to meet our closest debt maturities and other obligations, we believe there would be increased pressure on and potential further downgrades of our financial strength ratings, particularly for our mortgage insurance businesses, which could affect our ability to maintain our market share in the U.S. mortgage insurance industry, and other limitations on our holding company liquidity and ability to service and/or refinance our holding company debt. These challenges may be exacerbated by COVID-19.
Ongoing Priorities
Stabilizing our U.S. life insurance businesses continues to be one of our long-term goals. We will continue to execute this objective primarily through our multi-year long-term care insurance
in-force
rate action plan. Premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our legacy long-term care insurance policies are critical to the business. In addition, reducing debt will remain a high priority. We believe that increased financial support and our strengthened financial foundation resulting from the China Oceanwide transaction would provide us with more optionscontinue to manage our debt maturities and reduce overall indebtedness, which in turn would likely improve our credit and ratings profile over time. Finally, we also believe that the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction would allow us to place greater focus on the future of our long-term care and mortgageU.S. life insurance businesses while continuingon a standalone basis. Going forward, the U.S. life insurance businesses will continue to service our existingrely on their consolidated statutory capital, significant claim and future policy benefit reserves, prudent management of its
in-force
blocks and actuarially justified
in-force
rate actions to satisfy obligations to its policyholders.
Our U.S. life insurance business continued to make strong progress on its multi-year rate action plan, receiving approvals of approximately $157 million of incremental annual premiums during the first quarter of 2021. In aggregate, we estimate that we have achieved approximately $15.2 billion, on a

COVID-19 Summary
COVID-19 continues to bring unprecedented changes to the global economy. We have taken steps to mitigate somenet present value basis, of the risks associated with COVID-19. However, the ultimate impact on our businesses from the pandemic remains unknown, therefore, we are planning for future steps given the potential for a delayed or prolonged recovery. Below is a summary of certain of the trends, impacts and uncertainties relating to COVID-19, which have impacted our quarterly results under review in this report and are expected to continue to impact our results of operations and financial condition. Our discussion and analysis of our quarterly results should be read in conjunction with the following disclosures regarding COVID-19 and the more detailed disclosures contained elsewhere herein.approved
in-force
Economic Backdrop
COVID-19 has disrupted the global economy and financial markets, business operations, and consumer behavior and confidence. While all states have been impacted, certain geographies have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 either through the spread of the virus or the severity of the mitigation steps taken to control its spread. Weekly unemployment claims have slowed compared to the height of the pandemic; however, they remain elevated. The unemployment rate decreased in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2020, as the U.S. economy continued to add jobs lost at the height of the pandemic. However, the number of unemployed Americans remains high and underemployment is likely to remain high for an extended period of time.
The U.S. economy showed signs of recovery from COVID-19 in the third quarter of 2020 but remains in recessionary conditions. U.S. gross domestic product is forecasted to contract for the full year 2020. Monthly economic indicators improved from the lows of the second quarter of 2020 and efforts by the U.S. federal government through fiscal stimulus packages helped contribute to this recovery. However, political gridlock and the upcoming U.S. presidential election have added uncertainty to the timing of future stimulus measures and contributed to increased market volatility.
During the third quarter of 2020, the U.S. Federal Reserve maintained interest rates near zero as the U.S. economy continues to recover from the negative impact of COVID-19. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s latest forecast indicates that interest rates will remain at near zero through 2023 and will be maintained until the labor market recovers.
Credit markets continued their recovery in the third quarter of 2020 with credit spreads tightening early in the quarter, however, this activity leveled off in August 2020 as recovery slowed. A resurgence of localized COVID-19 cases across Europe and other parts of the globe has sparked new economic shutdowns and concerns over future containment of the virus which may hamper the pace of the global economic recovery.
The U.S. Federal Reserve plans to continue to support credit markets through its quantitative easing programs, including a corporate credit facility to purchase investment grade and certain high yield corporate securities that began in May 2020 and secondary market purchases of corporate bonds that started in June 2020.
U.S. Mortgage Insurance
As a result of COVID-19, the second quarter of 2020 financial results of our U.S. mortgage insurance business were negatively impacted primarily through increased borrower uptake of forbearance options, many of which resulted in a new delinquency. Elevated borrower forbearance continued into the third quarter of 2020, however, it slowed meaningfully compared to activity in the second quarter of 2020. Servicer reported forbearance ended the third quarter of 2020 with approximately 6.7% or 61,183 of our active policies reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 63% were reported as delinquent. Forbearance to date has been a leading indicator of future new delinquencies; however, it is difficult to predict the future level of reported forbearance and how many of the policies in a forbearance plan that remain current on their monthly mortgage payment will go delinquent.
86

Servicers continued the practice of remitting premiums during the early stages of delinquency. As a result, we did not experience an impact to earned premiums during the second and third quarters of 2020.
New delinquencies continue to increase driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19. Approximately 75% of our primary new delinquencies in the third quarter of 2020 were subject to a forbearance plan. New delinquencies of 16,664 contributed $61 million of loss expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Our U.S. mortgage insurance business third quarter of 2020 PMIERs required assets benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain non-performing loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided an estimated $1,217 million of benefit to our September 30, 2020 PMIERs required assets. For non-performing loans that are not subject to a forbearance plan, the 0.30 multiplier is applicable for no longer than three calendar months beginning with the month in which the loan became non-performing due to having missed two monthly payments. For those non-performing loans subject to a forbearance plan, the 0.30 multiplier is applicable for the time the loan remains in the forbearance plan. Given the magnitude of the benefit on our PMIERs required assets in applying the 0.30 multiplier, it is possible our PMIERs required assets will be adversely impacted after the expiration of the multiplier if the non-performing loans do not cure. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our U.S. mortgage insurance business, among other restraints, we intend to preserve PMIERs available assets and do not expect to receive additional dividends from our U.S. mortgage insurance business for the remainder of 2020. The amount and timing of future dividends will depend on the economic recovery from COVID-19, among other factors.
Australia Mortgage Insurance
Many of our lender customers created programs that allow affected borrowers the option to defer their mortgage repayments, without penalty, for a period of up to six months. Under regulatory guidance, borrowers participating in these programs, unless previously delinquent, are reported as current during the deferral period. As of September 30, 2020, our Australia mortgage insurance business had approximately 31,000 insured loans in-force still participating in a deferral program, down from over 48,000 as of June 30, 2020. This represents approximately 3% of our Australia mortgage insurance business total insured loans in-force as of September 30, 2020.
For many borrowers, the six-month deferral period expired in September 2020. Therefore, on September 22, 2020 the Australian Prudential Regulatory Authority (“APRA”) released guidance regarding treatment of loans impacted by COVID-19, including options for loans to be restructured without being treated as delinquent. Lenders have been completing serviceability assessments to determine the most appropriate solutions for borrowers experiencing hardships, including, in some cases, extension of payment deferral programs.
The Australian government continued to provide support for incomes, jobs and businesses with additional measures announced in the Federal Budget in October 2020. While the government programs and lender initiatives may lessen the effect of COVID-19 related losses to the business, uncertainties remain, and it could take a considerable amount of time for the economy to recover the lost output and employment resulting from the pandemic.
Our Australia mortgage insurance business strengthened its loss reserves by $24 million in the third quarter of 2020 reflecting the economic impacts caused by COVID-19, including a provision for incurred but not reported losses on loans in payment deferral programs. As the majority of loans enrolled in payment deferral programs are not reported as delinquent, this estimate is largely based on the assumption that some of these loans will ultimately become delinquent regardless of being placed in the deferral program. Due to COVID-19, our mortgage insurance business in Australia anticipates
87

claims and reported delinquencies to increase as we move into 2021. In addition, until normal patterns of delinquency development and progression return, we expect to continue to see increases in our incurred but not reported loss reserves, which could further materially impact losses.
As a result of potential impacts on capital levels, we do not expect to receive further dividends or other returns of capital from our mortgage insurance business in Australia for the remainder of 2020. The amount and timing of future dividends will depend on the economic recovery from COVID-19, among other factors.
U.S. Life Insurance
We have experienced some degree of higher mortality across all of our U.S. life insurance products as a result of COVID-19. For our long-term care insurance products, higher mortality has resulted in a favorable impact on claim and active policy reserves. Although it is not our practice to track cause of death for policyholders and claimants, we believe the results of our long-term care insurance business were likely impacted by COVID-19 in the second and third quarters of 2020. In our life insurance products, overall mortality experience was also higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2019, attributable in part to COVID-19.
We have experienced lower new claims incidence in our long-term care insurance business; however, we do not expect this to be permanent but rather a temporary reduction while shelter-in-place and social distancing protocols are in effect. Given the lower new claim counts submitted during COVID-19, incurred but not reported reserves were strengthened by $61 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting our assumption that lower new claim incidence during this period will ultimately return to normal levels. Our long-term care insurance benefit utilization will be monitored for impact; although it is too early to tell the magnitude and/or direction of that impact.
Our U.S. life insurance companies are dependent on the approval of actuarially justified in-force rate actions in our long-term care insurance business, including those rate actions which were previously filed and are currently pending review and approval. We have experienced some delays and could experience additional delays in receiving approvals of these in-force rate actions during COVID-19, although we do not expect a significant impact on our financial results during 2020 as a result of these delays.
Our U.S life insurance companies have complied with guidance issued by certain insurance regulators, such as mandates that policies cannot be lapsed or cancelled if premiums are not paid or requirements to provide extensions of grace periods during COVID-19. We have not experienced a significant impact on our premiums in our U.S. life insurance businesses while there have been premium deferrals/grace period mandates in place in certain states, however, the extension of grace periods and reinstatements mandated by state regulators during COVID-19 have temporarily increased the level of reserves in our term universal life insurance products in the current year. Although most of these mandates have been lifted, we continue to monitor developments related to COVID-19 such as state directives that are issued during this time and we will comply with any new guidance issued by our state insurance regulators.
Runoff
The most significant impacts on our variable annuity products from COVID-19 are the low interest rate environment and volatile equity markets. During the first half of 2020, our variable annuity products experienced a sharp decline in financial performance. Our third quarter of 2020 financial results experienced a modest rebound as equity markets continued their recovery. However, adjusted operating income remains depressed for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and is down 23% compared to the prior year.
88


Although certain states had mandates in place that policies cannot be lapsed and a few still require grace period extensions, we have not experienced a significant impact on our Runoff segment. There is no requirement to pay premiums in the majority of our variable annuity contracts and benefits would adjust contractually based on actual premiums paid in these products.
Investment Portfolio
We are actively monitoring our investment portfolio, including asset valuations impacted by the spread of COVID-19 and the resulting economic disruption. Our investment portfolio is primarily comprised of investment grade fixed maturity securities, with approximately 55% rated “A” and above. The carrying value of our investment portfolio as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $76.5 billion and $71.2 billion, respectively, of which 84% and 85%, respectively, was invested in fixed maturity securities.
During the third quarter of 2020, credit markets continued their recovery supported by strong investor inflows, improved corporate balance sheets and liquidity positions, asset/liability management measures taken by companies and minimal negative credit rating migration. We recognized approximately $0.8 billion of unrealized investment gains in the third quarter of 2020. The net unrealized investment gains related to our fixed maturity securities are recorded as a part of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and have no impact on earnings.
We routinely monitor our investment portfolio for possible ratings downgrades and other signs of distress that could be indicators of impairment. Our monitoring includes identifying assets susceptible to the efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, including close inspection of investments in industries directly impacted, such as travel, energy, leisure, lodging and auto. Our monitoring also includes inspection of other credit risk attributes, such as high leverage, supply chain interruptions and service disruptions/stoppages. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our investment portfolio has experienced modest impacts associated with impairments and recognized an allowance for credit losses of $5 million on our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities due in part to the adverse effects of COVID-19.
As of September 30, 2020, we did not have any modifications or extensions of commercial mortgage loans that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Modified loans represented 10% of our total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2020, as borrowers have sought additional relief related to
COVID-19.
Operational Readiness and Business Continuity
Our business continuity plans consider workforce continuity and we currently are requiring all employees to work from home through June 2021. We will continue to monitor workforce continuity and the safety of our employees as we start the process of returning to an office environment in mid 2021.
Remote access capabilities have existed at Genworth for many years and are well developed. We have implemented an extensive suite of information technology security controls that are in place when personnel work from within Genworth facilities, and these controls are fully replicated and enforced when personnel work from alternate locations, including their homes. No new security controls had to be implemented as a result of COVID-19 precautions.

We continue to monitorwork closely with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) and perform analysis of our internal control environment and believestate regulators to demonstrate the remote work environment as a result of COVID-19 has not materially affected our abilitybroad-based need for actuarially justified rate increases in order to maintain effective controls and procedures.

Liquidity
Genworth Holdings’ financial obligations due one year from the issue date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including debt maturing in 2021, exceed its current liquidity. Absent accessing additional liquidity through third party sources and/or the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, we would not expect to have a projected ability to meet our financial obligations with existing cash on hand and through normal course expected cash inflows for one year following the issuance of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, due to the uncertainty regarding the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, we are continuing to actively take steps toward raising capital by preparing for a possible public offering of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions. Proceeds from an equity transaction along with existing cash and cash equivalents, are expected to provide Genworth Holdings sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the issue date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. See note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements” for additional details.
During the third quarter of 2020, we successfully executed a debt financing through our U.S. mortgage insurance business, a transaction we deemed probable in our previous assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern. The debt financing provided liquidity to Genworth Holdings of $436 million which is sufficient to fully address its debt maturing in February 2021.
We also monitor the cash and highly liquid investment positions in each of our operating subsidiaries to ensure they will have the cash necessary to meet their obligations as they come due. Our businesses have liquidity options available to them, including Federal Home Loan Bank funding agreements and repurchase facilities, selling highly liquid securities and entering into new reinsurance arrangements. Given the options available, we believe our operating subsidiaries will be able to meet the near-term liquidity demands given the current market impacts from COVID-19. For additional details on our overall liquidity and future dividend sources, see “—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
We employ a process to both monitor and assess the impacts of unexpected events on our businesses. While the impact of COVID-19 is very difficult to predict, the ultimate impact on our business will depend on the length of the pandemic and speed of the economic recovery. We will continue to monitor developments and the potential financial impacts on our business. For additional details on the impact COVID-19 is having on our current results of operations and potential future impacts see “—Business Trends and Conditions” by segment. See also “Item 1A. Risk Factors—COVID-19 could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.”
Executive Summary of Financial Results
Below is an executive summary of our consolidated financial results for the periods indicated. Amounts below are net of taxes, unless otherwise indicated.
After-tax
amounts assume a tax rate of 21%.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020
 
We had net income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $418 million and $18$187 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.March 31, 2021 compared to a net loss of $66 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $132$168 million and $123$20 million for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively.
 
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $141$126 million and $137$148 million for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was primarily from higher losses largely from new delinquencies driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19,
reserve strengthening of $8 million on
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies and lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The decrease was also driven by interest expense associated with senior notes issued in August 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase was primarily fromhigher operating costs in the current year. These decreases were partially offset by higher premiums mainly attributable to higher insurance
in-force
and an increase in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product, partially offset by higher ceded premiums and lower average premium rates and higher ceded
90

premiums from reinsurance transactions executed in the current year. These increases were partially offset by higher losses largely from new delinquencies driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19. The third quarter of 2020 also includes favorable development on incurred but not reported delinquencies established in the second quarter of 2020.
Our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $7 million and $12 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease was primarily driven by lower earned premiums largely from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations and from lower net investment income in the current year.
 
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $14$62 million in the current year compared to an adjusted operating loss of $1$70 million in the prior year.
 
AdjustedOur long-term care insurance business had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our long-term care insurance business increased $38of $95 million and $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase infrom higher claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality, in the current year,as well as favorable development on incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) claims and higher net investment income. These increases were partially offset by higher frequency and severity of new claimsincome in the current year. We also increased reserves by $76 million in the current year to account for changes to incidence and mortality experience driven by
COVID-19,

91

largely from new delinquencies driven in large part by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19, reserve strengthening on existing delinquencies and from lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. These decreases were partially offset by higher premiums largely driven by higher insurance in-force and an increase in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product primarily due to higher mortgage refinancing in the current year.
Our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment had adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $17 million and $39 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

These increases were partially offset by higher frequency and severity of new claims in the current year.
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our life insurance business increased $210 million predominantly attributable to higher reserves in our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period during the premium grace period, higher mortality in the current year compared to the prior year and higher lapses primarily associated with our large 20-year term life insurance block entering its post-level premium period.

Other Significant Developments
The periods under review include, among others, the following significant developments.
U.S. Mortgage Insurance
 
Incurred losseslosses.
. Incurred losses were $292$55 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, an increase of which $231$36 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was attributable tolargely from higher new delinquencies driven mostlyin the first quarter of 2021 primarily from an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19.
We also strengthened reserves by borrower$10 million during the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to our expectation that
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date. In addition, we experienced lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the first quarter of 2021. New primary delinquencies of 10,053 contributed $44 million of loss expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $27 million of loss expense from 8,114 new primary delinquencies in the first quarter of 2021.
 
92
Borrower forbearance.
Approximately 54% of our primary new delinquencies in the first quarter of 2021 were subject to a forbearance plan as compared to less than 5% in recent quarters prior to
COVID-19.
Servicer reported forbearance slowed meaningfully beginning in June 2020 and ended the first quarter of 2021 with approximately 4.9% or 45,263 of our active primary policies reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 64% were reported as delinquent.

forbearance as a result of COVID-19. The increase was also attributable to strengthening of existing reserves by $28 million in the current year primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity.
 
PMIERs compliance.
On June 29,December 4, 2020, the GSEs issued both temporary and permanent amendments to PMIERs, which became effective retroactively on June 30, 2020. With respect toFor loans that became
non-performing
due to a
COVID-19
hardship, PMIERs was temporarily amended with respect to each
non-performing
loan. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business had estimated available assets of 132% of the$4,769 million against $3,005 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to 143%available assets of $4,588 million against $3,359 million net required assets as of June 30,December 31, 2020. The estimated sufficiency ratio as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was $1,074159% or $1,764 million of available assets above the published PMIERs requirements, compared to $1,275137% or $1,229 million above the published PMIERs requirements as of June 30,December 31, 2020. The reduction in PMIERs sufficiency was driven in part by elevated new insurance written in the third quarter of 2020, partially offset by elevated lapses driven by prevailing low interest rates. In September 2020, the GSEs imposed certain restrictions (“GSE Restrictions”) with respect to capital on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. The aforementioned PMIERs sufficiency is based on the published requirements applicable to private mortgage insurers and does not give effect to the GSE Restrictions recentlyrestrictions imposed on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. The increase in the PMIERs sufficiency was driven in part by the completion of an insurance linked notes transaction, which added $495 million of additional PMIERs capital credit as of March 31, 2021, elevated lapse driven by prevailing low interest rates and business cash flows, partially offset by elevated new insurance written. In addition, elevated lapses drovelapse continued to drive an acceleration of the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions, reducing theirwhich caused a reduction in PMIERs capital credit in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020. These factors were partially offset by growth in business cash flows in the third quarter of 2020. In addition, our2021. Our PMIERs required assets as of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain
non-performing
loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided $1,217$1,012 million of benefit to our September 30, 2020 PMIERs required assets.

Mortgage originations.originations and new insurance written.
Estimated mortgage origination volume increased during the thirdfirst quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 primarily from low interest rates which resulted in higher refinance origination volumes. In addition, thevolumes driven by lower interest rates and from higher purchase originations. The estimated private mortgage insurance available market increased driven byincrease was mostly attributable to higher refinance originations and higher purchase market penetration.originations. Given the volume to date, we expect mortgage originations to remain strong for the remainderfirst half of 20202021 fueled by sustained low interest rates driving refinances and by continued strength in the purchase originations market.
New insurance written and persistency.
Our U.S. mortgage insurance business continued to grow its primary insurance in-force through higher new insurance written, which increased 41% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due Due to higher mortgage purchase and refinancing originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market. Primary insurance in-force growth from highermarket, our new insurance written was partially offset by lower persistencyincreased to $24.9 billion in the current year. In addition, lower persistencyfirst quarter of 2021, a 39% increase compared to the first quarter of 2020. Higher new insurance written continues to drive growth in our U.S. mortgageprimary insurance business is impacting business performance in several other ways including, but not limited to, elevating single premium policy cancellations resulting in higher earned premiums and accelerating the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions reducing their associated PMIERs capital credit.
Australia Mortgage Insurance
Regulatory capital.
As of September 30, 2020, our Australia mortgage insurance business estimated its Prescribed Capital Amount (“PCA”) ratio was approximately 179%, representing an increase from 177% as of June 30, 2020.
Key Customers.
In May 2020, following a request-for-proposal process, our second largest customer in our Australia mortgage insurance business advised us that they will not renew their contract with us. The current contract with this customer will expire in November 2020. This customer represented 11% of our gross written premiums for the nine months ended September 2020. While the termination of the contract with this customer will reduce gross premiums written in 2021, it is expected to modestly

impact future financial results of our mortgage insurance business in Australia following the expiration of the existing contract in November 2020.
U.S. Life Insurance
 
In-force
rate actions in our long-term care insurance business.
As part of our strategy for our long-term care insurance business, we have been implementing, and expect to continue to pursue, significant premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on older generation blocks of business in order to bring those blocks closer to a break-even point over time and reduce the strain on earnings and capital. We are also requesting premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on newer blocks of business, as needed, some of which may be significant, to help bring their loss ratios back towards their original pricing. For all of these
in-force
rate action filings, we received 9143 filing approvals from 3020 states during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, representing a weighted-average increase of 29%40% on approximately $595$396 million in annualized
in-force
premiums, or approximately $173$157 million of incremental annual premiums. We also submitted 1435 new filings in 304 states during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 on approximately $727$17 million in annualized
in-force
premiums.
Claims reserve and assumption reviews.
Our U.S. life insurance business will complete its annual review of long-term care insurance claim reserve assumptions and complete its loss recognition and cash flow testing as well as assumption reviews in the fourth quarter of 2020. The review of assumptions in our long-term care insurance business will include expected claim incidence and terminations, benefit utilization, mortality, persistency, interest rates and in-force rate actions, among other assumptions. We will be specifically reviewing the basic long-term care insurance incurred but not reported reserve calculation, including the assumptions for new claim counts. The review of assumptions in our life insurance business will focus on assumptions for interest rates, persistency and mortality.
 
Profits followed by losses reserve in our long-term care insurance business.
With respect to our long-term care insurance block, excluding the acquired block, our future projections indicate we have projected profits in earlier periods followed by projected losses in later periods. As a result of this pattern of projected profits followed by projected losses, we will ratably accrue additional future policy benefit reserves over the profitable periods, currently expected to be through 2033,2032, by the amounts necessary to offset estimated losses during the periods that follow. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we increased our long-term care insurance future policy benefit reserves by $247 million, including $110 million during the third quarter of 2020, to accrue for profits followed by losses. As of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total amount accrued for profits followed by losses was $570 million.$799 million and $625 million, respectively.

On May 12, 2020, Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) downgraded the financial strength ratingPositive. The ratings of Genworth Financial Mortgage Insurance Pty Limited (“GFMIPL”), our principal Australianand GMICO were unchanged, although S&P indicated that they would likely raise the ratings if Genworth is successful in the execution of its strategic plan, including the planned partial sale of its U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiary, to “A” (Strong) from “A+” (Strong) and maintained a negative outlook. The downgrade reflects the pandemic-driven economic impact on GFMIPL’s financial performance and earnings, which Fitch expects to fall outside its “A” financial strength rating guidelines.

Consolidated
General Trends and Conditions
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 as well as the value of assets and liabilities. The U.S. and international financial markets in which we operate have been significantly impacted by COVID-19, see “—COVID-19 Summary” for additional details.
Varied levels of economic performance, coupled with uncertain economic outlooks, changes in government policy, global trade, regulatory and tax reforms, and other changes in market conditions, 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, including as a result of
COVID-19.
These trends change as investor confidence in the markets and the outlook for some consumers and businesses shift. As a result, our sales, revenues and profitability trends of certain insurance and investment products as well as the value of assets and liabilities could be impacted going forward. In particular, factors such as the length of
COVID-19
and the speed of the economic recovery, government responses to
COVID-19 (such

The U.S. and international governments, the U.S. Federal Reserve, other central banks and other legislative and regulatory bodies have taken certain actions in response to
COVID-19
to support the global economy and capital markets. These policies and actions have been supportive to the worldwide economy, however, in spite of these supportive policies the U.S. economy contracted in both the first and second quarters of 2020 and the world economy was infell into a recession.

We define “NM” as not meaningful for increases or decreases greater than 200%.
Premiums.
Premiums are primarily earned on insurance products for mortgage, long-term care, life insurance, single premium immediate annuities and structured settlements with life contingencies.
 
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment increased $32$26 million mainly attributable to higher insurance
in-force
and an increase in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product driven largely by higher mortgage refinancing, partially offset by higher ceded premiums and lower average premium rates and higher ceded premiums from reinsurance transactions executed in the current year.
 
Our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $6 million predominantly from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations in the current year.
9775

Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $6$4 million. Our long-term care insurance business increased $9$4 million largely from $25$23 million of increased premiums in the current year from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, partially offset by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year. Our life insurance business decreased $15$8 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
Net investment income.
Net investment income represents the income earned on our investments. For discussion of the change in net investment income, see the comparison for this line item under “—Investments and Derivative Instruments.”
Net investment gains (losses).
Net investment gains (losses) consist primarily of realized gains and losses from the sale or impairment of our investments, unrealized and realized gains and losses from our equity and trading securities and derivative instruments. For discussion of the change in net investment gains (losses), see the comparison for this line item under “—Investments and Derivative Instruments.”
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves.
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves consist primarily of claim costs incurred related to mortgage insurance products and benefits paid and reserve activity related to current claims and future policy benefits on insurance and investment products for long-term care, life insurance, structured settlements and single premium immediate annuities with life contingencies.
 
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment increased $22 million largely from higher new delinquencies driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 and lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies, partially offset by favorable development of $23 million on incurred but not reported delinquencies established in the second quarter of 2020.
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $4$142 million. Our long-term care insurance business decreased $15$99 million primarily due to an increase in claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality in the current year and from favorable development on incurred but not reported claims. Given the lower new claim counts submitted during COVID-19, incurred but not reported reserves were strengthened by $24 million reflecting our assumption that new claim incidence during this period will ultimately return to normal levels, partially offsetting the favorable development on incurred but not reportedIBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block and higher incremental reserves of $50$133 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses, aging oflosses. In addition, we increased claim reserves by $67 million reflecting our assumption that
COVID-19
accelerated our mortality experience on the in-force block (including higher frequency of new claims), and higher severitymost vulnerable claimants, leaving the remaining claim population less likely to terminate compared to the
pre-pandemic
average population. Given our assumption that
COVID-19
has temporarily decreased the number of new claims insubmitted, IBNR reserves were also strengthened by $29 million, partially offsetting the current year. The decrease was also partially offset by a $33 million less favorable impact from reduced benefits in the current year related to in-force rate actions approved and implemented.development on IBNR claims. Our life insurance business increased $41decreased $20 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products in the current year compared to the prior year and from higher reserves in our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period during the premium grace period.year. Our fixed annuities business decreased $30$23 million principally from $17 million oflower reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year compared to an unfavorable chargesmarket in the prior year that did not recur related to loss recognition testing and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuities in the current year.
Our Runoff segment decreased $12 million primarily attributable to lower guaranteed minimum death benefit (“GMDB”) reserves in our variable annuity products due to favorable equity market and interest rate performance in the current year.
 
Our AustraliaU.S. Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $2increased $36 million largely from higher new delinquencies driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19,
reserve strengthening of $10 million primarily due to our expectation that
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date and lower net benefits from favorablecures and aging of existing delinquencies and lower new reported delinquencies, net of cures, partially offset by loss reserve strengthening of $24 million reflecting the economic impacts caused by COVID-19, including a provision for incurred but not reported losses on loans in payment deferral programs in the current year.
Interest credited.
Interest credited represents interest credited on behalf of policyholder and contractholder general account balances. The decrease was principally related to our U.S. Life Insurance segment driven byprimarily related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businessbusinesses, which decreased $3 million and $7 million, respectively. The decrease in our life insurance and fixed annuities businesses was largely duerelated to a decline in the average account valuevalues and from lower crediting rates in the current year.
 
9876

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles.
Amortization of DAC and intangibles consists primarily of the amortization of acquisition costs that are capitalized, PVFP and capitalized software. The decrease was predominantly related to our Runoff segment largely related to lower DAC amortization in our variable annuity products principally due to favorable equity market performance in the current year.
Interest expense.
Interest expense represents interest related to our borrowings that are incurred at Genworth Holdings or subsidiaries and interest expense related to the Tax Matters Agreement and certain reinsurance arrangements being accounted for as deposits.
Our Corporate and Other activities decreased $12 million largely driven by the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020.
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $4 million driven by our life insurance business principally related to the early redemption of non-recourse funding obligations in the current year.
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment increased $6 million related to senior notes issued by GMHI in August 2020.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate increased to 25.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from 19.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase was primarily attributable to unfavorable provision to return adjustments in the current year compared to favorable adjustments in the prior year. The increase was also attributable to tax expense related to foreign operations and forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), which are tax effected at 35% as they are amortized into net investment income.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests
. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represents the portion of equity in a subsidiary attributable to third parties. The increase was predominantly related to net investment gains in the current year compared to net investment losses in the prior year.

Premiums
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment increased $101 million mainly attributable to higher insurance in-force and an increase in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product driven largely by higher mortgage refinancing, partially offset by higher ceded premiums from reinsurance transactions executed in the current year and lower average premium rates.

Our U.S. Life Insurance segment increased $2 million. Our long-term care insurance business increased $32 million largely from $90 million of increased premiums in the current year from in-force rate actions approved and implemented, partially offset by policy terminations and policies entering paid-up status in the current year. Our life insurance business decreased $30 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
Our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment decreased $38 million predominantly from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations in the current year. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a decrease of $9 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

Policy fees and other income.
Policy fees and other income consists 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 U.S. Life Insurance segment decreased $52 million primarily driven by our life insurance business from a $21 million favorable correction related to ceded premiums on universal life insurance policies in the prior year that did not recur. The decrease was also attributable to a decline in our universal and term universal life insurance in-force and higher ceded reinsurance costs in the current year.
Corporate and Other activities decreased $5 million primarily related to losses from non-functional currency remeasurement transactions in the current year compared to gains in the prior year.
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves
Our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment increased $253 million largely from $231 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 and strengthening of existing reserves of $28 million in the current year primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. We also experienced lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The prior year included a $10 million favorable reserve adjustment mostly associated with lower expected claim rates.
Our U.S. Life Insurance segment increased $59 million. Our long-term care insurance business decreased $34 million primarily due to an increase in claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality and favorable development on incurred but not reported claims. Given the lower new claim counts submitted during COVID-19, incurred but not reported reserves were strengthened by $61 million reflecting our assumption that new claim incidence during this period will ultimately return to normal levels, partially offsetting the favorable development on incurred but not reported claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the in-force block (including higher frequency of new claims), higher incremental reserves of $132 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses, a less favorable impact of $14 million from reduced benefits in the current year related to in-force rate actions approved and implemented and higher severity of new claims in the current year. Our life insurance business increased $146 million primarily attributable to higher reserves in our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period during the premium grace period and from higher mortality in the current year compared to the prior year attributable in part to COVID-19. Our fixed annuities business decreased $53 million principally from $39 million of unfavorable charges in the prior year that did not recur related to loss recognition testing and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuity products in the current year.

Our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment increased $7 million primarily from loss reserve strengthening of $42 million during the second and third quarters of 2020 reflecting the economic impacts caused by COVID-19, including provisions for incurred but not reported losses on loans in payment deferral programs. These increases were partially offset by favorable aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a decrease of $5 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Interest credited.
The decrease was principally related to our U.S. Life Insurance segment driven by our fixed annuities business largely due to a decline in average account values in the current year.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, represent costs and expenses related to the acquisition and ongoing maintenance of insurance and investment contracts, including commissions, policy issuance expenses and other underwriting and general operating costs. These costs and expenses are net of amounts that are capitalized and deferred, which are costs and expenses that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance policies and investment contracts, such as first-year commissions in excess of ultimate renewal commissions and other policy issuance expenses.

Use of
non-Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) measures
Reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
We use
non-GAAP
financial measures entitled “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders” and “adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share.” Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share is derived from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. Our chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. We define adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the
after-tax
effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), goodwill impairments, gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items. Gains (losses) on insurance block transactions are defined as gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of
non-recourse
funding obligations, early termination fees for other financing restructuring and/or resulting gains (losses) on reinsurance restructuring for certain blocks of business. 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 estimated future credit losses, 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. Goodwill impairments, gainsGains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions and restructuring costs are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders because, in our opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. Infrequent or unusual
non-operating
items are also excluded from adjusted 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 adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders, including adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per
103

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. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders and adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis are not substitutes for net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders or net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our definition of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders may differ from the definitions used by other companies.
Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21% tax rate for our domestic segments and a 30% tax rate for our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment and are net of the portion attributable to noncontrolling interests.rate. Net investment gains (losses) are also adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves.

Under applicable accounting guidance, companies in a loss position are required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share. Therefore, as a result of our loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, we were required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding as the inclusion of shares for stock options, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights of 5.4 million would have been antidilutive to the calculation. If we had not incurred a loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, dilutive potential weighted-average common shares outstanding would have been 509.7 million.
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding reflect the effects of potentially dilutive securities including stock options, restricted stock units and other equity-based compensation.
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 adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders. See note 1110 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements” for a summary of adjusted operating income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for our segments and Corporate and Other activities.
We tax our international businesses at their local jurisdictional tax rates and our domestic businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21%. OurEach segment tax methodology applies the respective jurisdictional or domestic tax rate to the pre-tax income (loss) of each segment, which is then adjusted in each segment to reflect the unique tax attributes of items unique to that segment, such as foreign withholding taxes and permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and local tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other activities.
The annually-determined tax rates and adjustments to each segment’s provision for income taxes are estimates which are subject to review and could change from year to year.

Management’s discussion and analysis by segment contains selected operating performance measures including “sales” and “insurance
in-force”
or “risk
in-force”
which are commonly used in the insurance industry as measures of operating performance.
Management regularly monitors and reports sales metrics as a measure of volume of new business generated in a period. Sales refer to new insurance written for mortgage insurance products. We consider new insurance written to be a measure of our operating performance because it represents 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 insurance
in-force
and risk in-force. Insurance
in-force
for our U.S. mortgage insurance businesses business. Insurance
in-force
is a measure of the aggregate original loanunpaid principal balance for outstanding insurance policies as of the respective reporting date.date for loans we insure. Risk
in-force for our U.S. mortgage insurance business
is based on the coverage percentage applied to the estimated current outstanding loan balance. Risk in-force in our Australia mortgage insurance business is computed using 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 the highest expected average per-claim payment for any one underwriting year over the life of our mortgage insurance business in Australia. We also have certain risk share arrangements in Australia where we provide pro-rata coverage of certain loans rather than 100% coverage. As a result, for loans with these risk share arrangements, the applicable pro-rata coverage amount provided is used when applying the factor. We consider insurance
in-force
and risk
in-force
to be measures of our operating performance because they represent measures of the size of our business at a specific date which will generate revenues and profits in a future period, rather than measures of our revenues or profitability during that period.
Management also regularly monitors and reports a loss ratio for our businesses. For our U.S. mortgage insurance businesses,business, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. For our long-term care insurance business, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in reserves less tabular interest on reserves less loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. We consider the loss ratio to be a measure of underwriting performance in these businesses and helps to enhance the understanding of the operating performance of our businesses.
These operating performance 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.
U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment
Trends and conditions
Results of our U.S. mortgage insurance business are affected primarily by the following factors: competitor actions; unemployment or underemployment levels; other economic and housing market trends, including interest rates, home prices, the number of first-time homebuyers, and mortgage origination volume mix and practices; the levels and aging of mortgage delinquencies; the effect of seasonal variations; the inventory of unsold homes; loan modification and other servicing efforts; and litigation, among other items.

level of 3.5% in February 2020 but has decreased to 7.9% in September 2020 after reachingfrom a peak of 14.7%14.8% in April 2020. The economy remains weak compared to pre-COVID-19. Even after the continued recovery in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020,2021, the number of unemployed Americans stands at approximately 12.610 million, which is 6.84 million higher than in February 2020. Among the unemployed, those on temporary layoff continued to decrease

In addition, the number of long term unemployed over 26 weeks increased to 2.4approximately 4 million. Specific to housing finance, mortgage origination activity remained robust in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 fueled by refinance activity and a strong surge in home sales.

The impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic
on our future business results is difficult to predict. We have performed and have periodically revised our scenario planning to help us better understand and tailor our actions to help mitigate the potential adverse effects of the pandemic on our financial results. While our current financial results to date fall within the range of our current scenarios, the ultimate outcomes and impact on our U.S. mortgage insurance business will depend on the spread and length of the pandemic. Of similar importance will be the amount, type and duration of government stimulus and its impact on borrowers, regulatory and government actions to support housing and the economy, the speed of the rollout and uptake of the vaccine, spread mitigating actions to curb the currenta potential increase in cases, the possible resurgence of the virus in the future and the shape of economic recovery, all of which are unknown at present.recovery. It is difficult to predict how long borrowers will need to use forbearance to assist them during the pandemic. Given thatthe length of time current forbearance plans may be extended, up to a year, the resolution of a delinquency in a plan, whether it ultimately results in a cure or a claim, is difficult to estimate and may not be known for several quarters, if not longer. We are continuingcontinue to monitor
COVID-19
developments and regulatory and government actions, and the potential financial impacts on our business.actions. However, given the specific risks to our U.S. mortgage insurance business, it is possible the pandemic could have a significant adverse impact on our business, including ourfuture results of operations and financial condition.
Specific to housing finance, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act requires mortgage servicers to provide up to 180 days of deferred or reduced payments (forbearance) for borrowers with a federally backed mortgage loan who assert they have experienced a financial hardship related to
COVID-19.
Forbearance may be extended for an additional 180 days up to a year in total or shortened at the request of the borrower. Federally backed mortgages includeOn February 25, 2021, the Federal Housing AdministrationFinance Agency (“FHA”FHFA”) announced that borrowers with a mortgage backed by the GSEs who are in an active

The CARES Act also prohibited foreclosures on all federally backed mortgage loans, except for vacant and abandoned properties, forthereafter one or more forbearance plan term extensions of no more than three months each, provided the plan term does not exceed 18 months of total delinquency or a 60-day period that began on Marchcumulative term of 18 2020.months, whichever is shorter. Since the introduction of the CARES Act, the GSEs as well as most servicers of
non-federally
backed mortgage loans have extended similar relief to their respective portfolios of loans. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) extendedOn February 25, 2021, the FHFA announced an extension until June 30, 2021 of the foreclosure moratorium until at least Decemberthat was originally set to expire on March 31, 20202021 for mortgages that are purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.the GSEs, which the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) may further extend to December 31, 2021, as described in more detail below. At the conclusion of the forbearance term, a borrower may either bring their loan current, defer any missed payments until the end of their loan, or the loan can be modified through a repayment plan or extension of the mortgage term. ManyIn addition, the CARES Act provides that furnishers of credit reporting information, including servicers, have updated and improved their reportingshould continue to private mortgage insurers for whenreport a loan as current to credit reporting agencies if the loan is coveredsubject to a payment accommodation, such as forbearance, so long as the borrower abides by forbearance.the terms of the accommodation. Servicer reported forbearance slowed meaningfully beginning in June 2020 and ended the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 with approximately 6.7%4.9% or 61,18345,263 of our active primary policies reported in a forbearance plan, of which approximately 63%64% were reported as delinquent, compared to 7.7%, 68,937, and 61%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2020. Forbearance to date has been a leading indicator of future new delinquencies; however, itdelinquent. It is difficult to predict the future level of reported forbearance and how many of the policies in a forbearance plan that remain current on their monthly mortgage payment will go delinquent.
On April 1, 2021, in anticipation of the upcoming expiration of the foreclosure moratoriums and forbearances, and borrowers exiting forbearance programs after reaching the maximum number of permitted forborne payments, the CFPB advised mortgage servicers of the risk of a high volume of loans needing loss mitigation. The CFPB further stated that it will be monitoring how servicers engage with borrowers, respond to borrower requests and process applications for loss mitigation. On April 5, 2021, the CFPB promulgated a Notice
82

of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comments on proposed measures to help prevent avoidable foreclosures as the foreclosure protections expire including, among other things, the implementation of a
pre-foreclosure
review period that would generally prohibit servicers from starting foreclosures on mortgages purchased by the GSEs until after December 31, 2021. The levelproposed effective date of mortgage originations requiring private mortgage insurance (“market penetration”)the rule is August 31, 2021.
Market penetration and eventual market size are affected in part by actions that impact housing or housing finance policy taken by the GSEs and the U.S. government, including but not limited to, the FHAFederal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and the FHFA. In the past, these actions have included announced changes, or potential changes, to underwriting standards, including changes to the
108

GSEs’ automated underwriting systems, FHA pricing, GSE guaranty fees, loan limits and alternative products, such as those offered through Freddie Mac’s Integrated Mortgage Insurance (“IMAGIN”) and Fannie Mae’s Enterprise Paid Mortgage Insurance (“EPMI”) pilot programs, as well as low down payment programs available through the FHA or GSEs.products. On May 20,December 17, 2020, the FHFA re-proposedpublished the Enterprise Regulatory Capital Framework (“Enterprise Framework”) for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The comment period expired on August 31, 2020. As proposed, the Enterprise Framework wouldFinal Rule, which includes significantly increasehigher regulatory capital requirements for the GSEs over current requirements. If the Enterprise Framework is finalized in its current form, higherHigher GSE capital requirements could ultimately lead to increased costs to borrowers forof GSE loans, which in turn could shift the market away from the GSEs to the FHA or lender portfolios. Such a shift could result in a smaller market for private mortgage insurance. In conjunction with preparing to release the GSEs from conservatorship, on January 14, 2021, the FHFA and the Treasury Department agreed to amend the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements (“PSPAs”) between the Treasury Department and each of the GSEs to increase the amount of capital each GSE may retain. In addition, among other things, the PSPAs limit the number of certain mortgages the GSEs may acquire with two or more prescribed risk factors, including certain mortgages with combined
loan-to-value
ratios above 90%. Because these limits are based on the current market size, we do not expect any material impact to the private mortgage market in the near term. On January 20, 2021, the White House issued a memorandum establishing a plan for managing the federal regulatory process which included, among other things, a request that the heads of executive departments and agencies postpone the effective dates of newly-issued rules for 60 days. On February 23, 2021, the CFPB published a statement in which it announced that it was considering rulemaking to reconsider the “seasoned” approach to the Qualified Mortgage (“QM”) “safe harbor.” As previously disclosed, the regulations also include a temporary category (the “QM Patch”) for mortgages that comply with certain prohibitions and limitations and meet the GSE underwriting and product guidelines. Mortgages that meet certain requirements are deemed to be QMs until the earlier of the time in which the GSEs exit the FHFA conservatorship or the mandatory compliance date of the final amendments to the CFPB’s rule defining what constitutes a QM (“QM Rule”). The CFPB also announced it was reconsidering the QM Rule and would also propose a rule to delay the July 1, 2021 mandatory compliance date of the amended QM Rule. On April 27, 2021, the CFPB promulgated a final rule delaying the mandatory compliance date of the amended QM Rule until October 1, 2022. As provided under the final rule, the prior 43% debt-to-income-based QM Rule definition, the new price-based average prime offer rate (“APOR”) definition and the QM Patch will all remain available to lenders for loan applications received prior to October 1, 2022. However, on April 8, 2021, the GSEs issued notices stating that due to the requirements of the PSPAs they would only acquire loans that meet the new price-based APOR definition set forth under the amended QM Rule for applications received on or after July 1, 2021. Accordingly, even if the CFPB extends the mandatory compliance date of the amended QM Rule, as a practical matter, many lenders will no longer originate 43%
debt-to-income-based
QM loans or QM Patch loans for applications received on or after July 1, 2021 if the GSEs continue to maintain this position. For more information on the previously disclosed regulation, see “Item 1—Business—Regulation—U.S. Insurance Regulation” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
For more information about the potential future impact, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Changes to the role of the GSEs or to the charters or business practices of the GSEs, including actions or decisions to decrease or discontinue the use of mortgage insurance, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations or significantly impact our business,” and “—Risk Factors—The amount of mortgage insurance we write could decline significantly if alternatives to private mortgage insurance are used or lower coverage levels of mortgage insurance are selected” in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form

Given the volume to date, we expect mortgage originations to remain strong for the remainderfirst half of 20202021 fueled by sustained low interest rates driving refinances and by continued strength in the purchase originations market.
Our primary persistency declined to 60%56% during the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 compared to 75%74% during the thirdfirst quarter of 2019.2020. The decrease in persistency was primarily driven by historically low interest rates driving elevated refinancing activity. Lower persistency is impactinghas impacted business performance trends in several ways including, but not limited to, offsetting insurance

in-force.
As of March 31, 2021, our primary insurance
in-force
has less than 10% concentration in 2014 and prior book years. Our 2005 through 2008 book year concentration is approximately 5%. In contrast, our 2020 book year represents 42% of our primary insurance
in-force
concentration while our 2021 book year is 12% as of March 31, 2021.
New insurance written of $24.9 billion in the first quarter of 2021 increased 39% compared to the first quarter of 2020 primarily due to higher mortgage purchase and refinancing originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market, partially offset by our lower estimated market share in 2021. The U.S. private mortgage insurance industry is highly competitive. There are currently six active mortgage insurers, including us. The majority of the new insurance written in our U.S. mortgage insurance business is priced using our proprietary risk-based pricing engine, GenRATE, which provides lenders with a granular approach to pricing for borrowers. All active U.S. mortgage insurers utilize proprietary risk-based pricing engines. Given evolving market dynamics, we expect price competition to remain highly competitive. For more information on the potential impacts due to competition, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Competitors could negatively affect our ability to maintain or increase our market share and profitability” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. At the same time, we believe mortgage insurers, including us, consider many variables when pricing their new insurance written including the prevailing and future macroeconomic conditions. We made pricing adjustments in the third quarter of 2020 taking into account improving market conditions, portfolio performance to date through the pandemic and competitive factors.
New insurance written of $26.6 billion increased 41% in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to higher mortgage refinancing originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market. Our U.S. mortgage insurance estimated market share for the third quarter of 2020 was lower compared to the second quarter of 2020. Our market share was impactedis influenced by the execution of our go to market strategy, including but not limited to, pricing competitiveness relative to our peers and our selective participation in forward commitment transactions. Our market share remains impacted by the negative ratings differential relative to our competitors, concerns expressed about Genworth’s financial condition and the proposed transaction with China Oceanwide.execution of its strategic plans. We continue to manage the quality of new business through pricing and our underwriting guidelines, which we modify from time to time when circumstances warrant.

Net earned premiums increased in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 compared to the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 primarily from growth in our insurance
in-force
and from an increase in single premium policy cancellations driven largely by higher mortgage refinancing, partially offset by higher ceded premiums and lower average premium rates and higher ceded premiums from reinsurance transactions executed in the current year. As a result of
COVID-19,
we continued to experienceexperienced a significant increase in the number of reported delinquent loans duringin the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 as compared to recent quarters prior to COVID-19.the first quarter of 2020. During this time and consistent with prior years, servicers continued the practice of remitting premiumpremiums during the early stages of default. As a result, we did not experience an impact to earned premiums during the thirdfirst quarter of 2020.2021. Additionally, we have a business practice of refunding the post-delinquent premiums to the insured party if the delinquent loan goes to claim. We record a liability and a reduction to net earned premiums for the post-delinquent premiums we expect to refund. The post-delinquent premium liability recorded in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 associated with the increased number of delinquent loans was not significant to the change in earned premiums duringfor the quarterthree months ended March 31, 2021 as a result of the high concentration of new delinquencies being subject to a servicer reported forbearance plan and the lower estimated ratesrate at which delinquencies go to claim (“roll rates” or “claim rates”) for these loans. The post-default premium liability increased by $2 million in the first quarter of 2021 primarily as a result of
COVID-19
delinquencies and the total liability for all delinquencies was $11 million as of March 31, 2021. As a result of
COVID-19,

COVID-19.
While COVID-19 is unique in that it is a sudden, global economic disruption stemming from a health crisis, we have experience with the financial impacts of sudden, unexpected economic events on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. Prior localized natural disasters, such as hurricanes, have helped inform our view of the severity and potential duration of the economic shock caused by the efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19. Similar to our hurricane experience, borrowersBorrowers who have experienced a financial hardship including, but not limited to, the loss of income due to the closing of a business or the loss of a job have taken advantage of available forbearance programs and payment deferral options. As a
84

result, we have seen elevated new delinquencies but as in past natural disasters, those delinquencieswhich may ultimately cure at a higher rate than traditional delinquencies should economic activity quickly return to
pre-COVID-19
levels. Severity of loss on loans that do go to claim, however, may be negatively impacted by the extended forbearance timeline, the associated elevated expenses such as accumulated interest, the higher loan amount of the recent new delinquencies and home price depreciation, if any. Unlike a hurricane where the natural disaster occurs at a point in time and the rebuild starts soon after,
COVID-19
is an ongoing health crisis and we do not know when it will end, making it more difficult to determine the effectiveness of forbearance and the resulting roll rates for new delinquencies in forbearance plans. Given this difference, our prior hurricane experience was relied uponleveraged as one consideration, of many considerations in the establishment of an appropriate roll rate estimate for new delinquencies in forbearance plans that have emerged as a result of
COVID-19.
Severity of loss on loans that do go to claim, however, may be negatively impacted by the extended forbearance timeline, the associated elevated expenses, the higher loan amount of the recent new delinquencies and the potential for home price depreciation.

We also strengthened reserves by favorable development on incurred but not reported$10 million during the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to our expectation that
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date. In addition, we experienced lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year.first quarter of 2021. New primary delinquencies of 10,053 contributed $44 million of loss expense in the first quarter of 2021 largely determined by applying a roll rate estimate which considers the emergence of cures on forbearance and
non-forbearance
delinquencies and the ongoing economic impact due to the pandemic. This compares to $27 million of loss expense from 8,114 new primary delinquencies in the first quarter of 2020. Approximately 75%54% of our primary new delinquencies in the thirdfirst quarter of 20202021 were subject to a forbearance plan. New primary delinquencies of 16,664 contributed $61 million of loss expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 calculated by applying a blended estimated roll rate between the estimate for existing pre-COVID-19 early stage delinquencies and our past hurricane related roll rates, which were materially lower given the effectiveness of forbearance and government assistance programs. This comparesplan as compared to $29 million of loss expense from 8,547 new primary delinquencies for the three months ended September 30, 2019. less than 5% in recent quarters prior to
COVID-19.
Prior to
COVID-19,
traditional measures of credit quality, such as Fair Isaac Company (“FICO”) score and whether a loan had a prior delinquency were most predictive of new delinquencies. Because the pandemic has affected a broad portion of the population, attribution

new delinquencies revealed that additional factors such as higher debt to income,
debt-to-income
ratios, geographic regions more affected by the virus or with a higher concentration of affected industries, loan size and servicer process differences rose in significance.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio under the current regulatory framework as established under North Carolina law and enforced by the North Carolina Department of Insurance (“NCDOI”), GMICO’s domestic insurance regulator, was approximately 12.3:11.9:1, compared with a
risk-to-capital
ratio of 12.2:1 as of June 30, 2020 and 12.5:12.3:1 as of December 31, 2019.2020. GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio remains below the NCDOI’s maximum
risk-to-capital
ratio of 25:1. North Carolina’s calculation of
risk-to-capital
excludes the

for delinquent loans given the established loss reserves against all delinquencies. As a result, we do not expect any immediate, material pressure to GMICO’s
risk-to-capital
ratio in the short term as a result of
COVID-19.
GMICO’s ongoing
risk-to-capital
ratio will depend principally on the magnitude of future losses incurred by GMICO, the effectiveness of ongoing loss mitigation activities, new business volume and profitability, the amount of policy lapses and the amount of additional capital that is generated or distributed by the business or capital support (if any) that we provide.provided.
Under PMIERs, we are subject to operational and financial requirements that private mortgage insurers must meet in order to remain eligible to insure loans that are purchased by the GSEs. Each approved mortgage insurer is required to provide the GSEs with an annual certification and a quarterly report evidencing its compliance with PMIERs. On June 29, 2020, the GSEs issued guidance amendingthe “PMIERs Amendment.” In September 2020, the GSEs issued an amended and restated version of the PMIERs in light of COVID-19 (the “PMIERs Amendment”), whichAmendment that became effective retroactively on June 30, 2020 and included both temporary and permanent amendments to PMIERs anda new reporting requirement that became effective on June 30,December 31, 2020. TheOn December 4, 2020, the GSEs issued a revised and restated version of the PMIERs Amendment onthat revised and replaced the version issued in September 11, 2020. With respect to loans that became non-performing due to a COVID-19 hardship,The December 4, 2020 version extended the application of reduced PMIERs was temporarily amended with respectcapital factors to each

The PMIERs Amendment implemented both permanent and temporary revisions to PMIERs. For loans that became

due to a
COVID-19
hardship, PMIERs was temporarily amended with respect to each

the terms of which are materially consistent with terms of forbearance plans offered by the GSEs. The risk-based required asset amount factor for the
non-performing
loan will be the greater of (a) the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a performing loan were it not delinquent, and (b) the product of a 0.30 multiplier and the applicable risk-based required asset amount factor for a
non-performing
loan. In the case of (i), above, absent the loan being subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above, the 0.30 multiplier will be applicable for no longer than three calendar months beginning with the month in which the loan became a
non-performing
loan due to having missed two monthly payments. Loans subject to a forbearance plan described in (ii) above include those that are either in a repayment plan or loan modification trial period following the forbearance plan unless reported to the approved insurer that the loan is no longer in such forbearance plan, repayment plan, or loan modification trial period. The PMIERs Amendment also imposes temporary capital preservation provisions through March 31,June 30, 2021 that require an approved insurer to obtain prior written GSE approval before paying any dividends, pledging or transferring assets to an affiliate or entering into any new, or altering any existing, arrangements under tax sharing and intercompany expense-sharing agreements, even if such insurer has a surplus of available assets. Lastly,In addition, the PMIERs Amendment imposes permanent revisions to the risk-based required asset amount factor for
non-performing
loans for properties located in future Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) Declared Major Disaster Areas eligible for individual assistance.
In September 2020, subsequent to the issuance of GMHI’s senior notes due in 2025, the GSEs imposed certain GSE Restrictions were imposedrestrictions (the “GSE Restrictions”) with respect to capital on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. These restrictionsIn connection with the planned partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, we expect that the GSEs will recommend revisions to the GSE Restrictions, subject to FHFA approval. There can be no assurance that such approval process will not result in the final terms being changed. The GSE Restrictions will remain in effect until the later of six quarters or until the following collective (“GSE Conditions”) are met: a)(a) approval of GMICO’s plan to secure additional capital, if needed, b)(b) GMICO obtains “BBB+”/“Baa1” (or higher) rating from S&P, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch Ratings, Inc. for two consecutive quarters and c)(c) Genworth achieves certain Genworth financial metrics are achieved.metrics. Prior to the satisfaction of the GSE Conditions, the GSE Restrictions require:
 
GMICO to maintain 115% of PMIERs minimum required assets through 2021, 120% during 2022 and 125% thereafter;
 
GMHI to retain $300 million of its holding company cash that can be drawn down exclusively for its debt service or to contribute to GMICO to meet itstheir regulatory capital needs including PMIERs; and
 
111

written approval must be received from the GSEs prior to any additional debt issuance by either GMICO or GMHI.
Until the GSE Conditions imposed in connection with the GSE Restrictions are met, GMHI’s liquidity must not fall below 13.5% of its outstanding debt. These GSE Restrictions will remain in effect until the collective GSE Conditions are met.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business had estimated available assets of $4,451$4,769 million against $3,377$3,005 million net required assets under PMIERs compared to available assets of $4,218$4,588 million against $2,943$3,359 million net required assets as of June 30,December 31, 2020. The estimated sufficiency ratio as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 was $1,074159% or $1,764 million or 132% above the published PMIERs requirements, compared to $1,275137% or $1,229 million or 143% above the published PMIERs requirements as of June 30,December 31, 2020. PMIERs sufficiency is based on the published requirements applicable to private mortgage insurers and does not give effect to the GSE Restrictions recently imposed on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. The reductionincrease in the published PMIERs sufficiency was driven in part by the completion of an insurance linked notes transaction, which added $495 million of additional PMIERs capital credit as of March 31, 2021, elevated new insurance written in the third quarter of 2020, partially offset by elevated lapseslapse driven by prevailing low interest rates.rates and business

cash flows, partially offset by elevated new insurance written. In addition, elevated lapses drovelapse continued to drive an acceleration of the amortization of our existing reinsurance transactions, reducing theirwhich caused a reduction in PMIERs capital credit in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020. These factors were partially offset by growth in business cash flows in the third quarter of 2020. In addition, our2021. Our PMIERs required assets as of September 30,March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 benefited from the application of a 0.30 multiplier applied to the risk-based required asset amount factor for certain
non-performing
loans. The application of the 0.30 multiplier to all eligible delinquencies provided $1,217$1,012 million of benefit to our September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 PMIERs required assets compared to $1,057$1,046 million benefit as of June 30,December 31, 2020.
These amounts are gross of any incremental reinsurance benefit from the elimination of the 0.30 multiplier.
Our credit risk transfer program providedOn February 4, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business executed an estimated aggregateexcess of $777loss reinsurance transaction with a panel of reinsurers, which provides up to $210 million of PMIERs capital credit asreinsurance coverage on a portion of September 30, 2020.the loss tiers on current and expected new insurance written for the 2021 book year.

Ltd. financed the reinsurance coverage by issuing mortgage insurance-linked notes in an aggregate amount of $495 million to unaffiliated investors. Credit risk transfer transactions provided an aggregate of approximately $1,285 million of PMIERs capital credit as of March 31, 2021. On April 16, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business obtained approximately $303 million of fully collateralized excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re

For additional details see note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements.” If we gave effect to this transaction in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020,2021, our PMIERs sufficiency ratio would have increasedbeen estimated to $1,424be 176% or $2,067 million or 147% above the published PMIERs requirements. Our U.S. mortgage insurance business may execute future credit risk transfer transactions to maintain a prudent level of financial flexibility in excess of the PMIERs capital requirements in response to potential changes in performance and PMIERs requirements over time.
The GSE Restrictions govern the period prior to the close of the planned China Oceanwide transaction. The GSEs issued separate conditions and restrictions in September 2020, which place identical restrictions on our U.S. mortgage insurance business, if the China Oceanwide transaction closes (the “Oceanwide Restrictions”). Specifically, the Oceanwide Restrictions must remain in effect until the later of: a) six quarters after the China Oceanwide transaction closes, b) the conditions in our mitigation agreement with Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States are met and certified, or c) until the GSE Conditions imposed in connection with the GSE Restrictions are met. Prior to the satisfaction of these conditions, the Oceanwide Restrictions contain the same restrictions as the aforementioned GSE Restrictions. However, if China Oceanwide remits the $1.5 billion contribution to Genworth in connection with the capital investment plan, GMHI can distribute the $300 million of its holding company cash held for debt service and GMICO capital needs less 13.5% of GMHI’s then current outstanding debt. Until the GSE Conditions imposed in connection with the GSE Restrictions are met, GMHI’s liquidity must not fall below 13.5% of its outstanding debt.
Our U.S. mortgage insurance business paid dividends of $436 million inis currently operating under the third quarter of 2020 generated from the net cash proceeds of GMHI’s 2025 Senior Notes offering. As a result of the uncertainty regarding the impact of COVID-19 and the recently imposed GSEs’ PMIERs Amendment, which includes capital preservation requirements that restrict dividends through June 30, 2021. Thereafter, we will evaluate the regulatory and GSE Restrictions onmacroeconomic environment, including the timing of forbearance resolutions and whether loans subject to forbearance cure or result in a claim, to assess future dividends. Future dividends are subject to capital requirements of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, we intend to preserve PMIERs available assets. Accordingly, we intend to defer the paymentsubsidiaries, capital needs of additional dividends in 2020. The amountour holding companies and timing of future dividends will depend on the economic recovery from COVID-19,market conditions, among other factors.
As discussed under “Item 1—Business—Regulation” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, pursuantfactors, which are subject to its authority under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) issued regulations (the “QM Rule”) that became effective on January 10, 2014, establishing underwriting and product feature requirements for mortgages to be deemed Qualified Mortgageschange.

(“QM”). The regulations also include a temporary category (the “QM Patch”) for mortgages that comply with certain prohibitions and limitations and meet the GSE underwriting and product guidelines. Mortgages that meet these requirements are deemed to be QMs until the earlier of the time in which the GSEs exit FHFA conservatorship or January 10, 2021. The QM Patch permits loans that exceed a debt to income ratio of 43% to be eligible for QM status. Many of the loans that qualify under the QM Patch require credit enhancement, of which private mortgage insurance is the predominate form of coverage. On June 22, 2020, the CFPB issued two Notices of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comments on proposed amendments to its QM regulations, and they extended the QM Patch until the earlier of the effective date of the revised QM Rule (which is not expected to occur prior to April 1, 2021) or when the GSEs exit conservatorship. The comment periods ended on August 10, 2020 and September 8, 2020, respectively. On October 20, 2020 the CFPB issued a final rule extending the QM Patch until the compliance date for the final QM Rule. It is too early to determine what the final QM Rule will include, when or if it will become effective or the impact it will have on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. On August 18, 2020, the CFPB issued an additional Notice of Proposed Rulemaking adding a “seasoning” approach to the QM “safe harbor.” The proposed rule exempts lenders from liability when they make a reasonable, good faith determination of a consumer’s ability to repay any non-QM that has experienced minimal delinquencies within the first three years after origination prior to approving the underwriting.

Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders decreased primarily attributable to higher losses largely from new delinquencies driven in large part by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19, reserve strengthening on existing delinquencies and from lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. These decreases were partially offset by higher premiums largely driven by higher insurance in-force and an increase in policy cancellations in our single premium mortgage insurance product primarily due to higher mortgage refinancing in the current year.

Net investment income increased primarily from higher average invested assets in the current year.
115

Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves increased largely from $231 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 and strengthening of existing reserves of $28 million in the current year primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. We also experienced lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The prior year included a $10 million favorable reserve adjustment mostly associated with lower expected claim rates.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, increased primarily attributable to higher operating costs driven mostly by increased sales in the current year.
Interest expense in the current year relates to the senior notes issued by GMHI in August 2020.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate was 21.1% and 21.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, consistent with the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate.
U.S. Mortgage Insurance selected operating performance measures
In the third quarter of 2020, we revised the product descriptions in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment to conform with industry convention and certain regulatory definitions, including classifications under PMIERs. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
In the United States, we offer the following mortgage insurance products:
Primary Mortgage Insurance
Substantially all of our policies are primary mortgage insurance, which provides protection on individual loans at specified coverage percentages. Primary mortgage insurance is placed on individual loans at the time of origination and are typically delivered to us on a loan by loan basis. Primary mortgage insurance can also be delivered to us on an aggregated basis, whereby each mortgage in a given loan portfolio is insured in a single transaction after the point of origination.
Pool Mortgage Insurance
Pool mortgage insurance transactions provide coverage on a finite set of individual loans identified by the pool policy. Pool policies contain coverage percentages and provisions limiting the insurer’s obligation to pay claims until a threshold amount is reached (known as a “deductible”) or capping the insurer’s potential aggregate liability for claims payments (known as a “stop loss”) or a combination of both provisions. Pool mortgage insurance is typically used to provide additional credit enhancement for certain secondary market mortgage transactions.

increased largely from new insurance written, partially offset by lapses and cancellations as we experienced lower persistency duringin the current year. Primary persistency was 64%56% and 80%74% for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively. ThisThe decrease in persistency resulted in elevated single premium policy cancellations in the current year. Risk first quarter of 2021. Total risk
in-force
increased primarily as a result of higher primary insurance
in-force.
New insurance written
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, newNew insurance written increased primarilyprincipally due to higher mortgage purchase and refinancing originations and a larger private mortgage insurance available market, partially offset by our lower estimated market share in the current year.
Net premiums written
Net premiums written for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased primarily from higher average primary insurance
in-force,
partially offset by higher ceded premiums from reinsurance transactions executed in the current year.

The loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. The expense ratio (net earned premiums) is the ratio of general expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio (net premiums written) 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 DAC and intangibles.
The loss ratio increased forcompared to the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 largely from higher new delinquencies driven primarily by an increase in borrower forbearance as a result of
COVID-19, and lower net benefits from
reserve strengthening of $10 million primarily due to our expectation that
pre-COVID-19
delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than our prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures to date and aging of existing delinquencies, partially offset by favorable development of $23 million on incurred but not reported delinquencies established in the second quarter of 2020. The loss ratio increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 largely from $231 million of losses from new delinquencies driven primarily by a significant increase in borrower forbearance as a result of COVID-19 and strengthening of
117

existing reserves of $28 million in the current year primarily driven by the deterioration of early cure emergence patterns impacting claim frequency along with a modest increase in claim severity. We also experienced lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The prior year included a $10 million favorable reserve adjustment mostly associated with lower expected claim rates.
The expense ratio (net earned premiums) forwas flat compared to the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 decreased mainly drivenas higher operating costs were offset by higher net earned premiums partially offset by higher operating costs in the current year.

as of March 31, 2021 was primarily driven by higher reserves in relation to a decrease in delinquent risk in-force. Delinquent risk in-force decreased mainly from lower total delinquencies as cures outpaced new delinquencies in the first quarter of 2021, while reserves increased primarily from new delinquencies and reserve strengthening in the current year. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we have experienced a materialan increase in total missed payments and paymentsloans that are delinquent for 4-1112 months or more due in large part to borrowers entering a forbearance plan over a year ago driven by
COVID-19.
We estimated the loss reserve for
COVID-19
related delinquencies by applying a claim rate estimate which considers the emergence of cures on forbearance and
non-forbearance
delinquencies and the ongoing economic impact due to the pandemic. The large volume of additional forbearance delinquencies moving to 12 or more payments in default combined with lower loss expectations on delinquencies subject to a forbearance plan drove the decrease in reserves as a percentage of risk
in-force
in the 12 or more payments in default category as of March 31, 2021. Forbearance plans may be extended up to a year,18 months, therefore, it is possible we could experience elevated delinquencies in this aged category for the remainder of 2020 and the first half of 2021. Resolution of a delinquency in a forbearance plan, whether it ultimately results in a cure or a claim, is difficult to estimate and may not be known for several quarters, if not longer.

Trends and conditions
ResultsLoss reserves in policy years 2005 through 2008 are outsized compare to their representation of our mortgage insurance businessrisk
in-force.
The size of these policy years at origination combined with the significant decline in Australia are affected primarily by changeshome prices led to significant losses 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 and aging of mortgage delinquencies and movements in foreign currency exchange rates. During the third quarter of 2020, the Australian dollar strengthened against the U.S. dollar comparedpolicy years prior to 2009. Although uncertainty remains with respect to the third quarter of 2019, which positively impacted the results of our mortgage insurance business in Australia as reported in U.S. dollars. Any future movement in foreign exchange rates could impact future results.
Australia has made progress in containing the spread of COVID-19, and the economy is in the early stages of recovery, with the exception of Victoria, which had been in extended lockdown since June 2020. However,
120

many of the Victoria restrictions were lifted or relaxed in late October 2020 as the number of COVID-19 cases were reduced. Early in the pandemic, many of our lender customers created programs that allow affected borrowers the option to defer their mortgage repayments, without penalty, forultimate losses we will experience on these policy years, they have become a period of up to six months. Under regulatory guidance, borrowers participating in these programs, unless previously delinquent, are reported as current during the deferral period. As of September 30, 2020, the business had approximately 31,000 insured loans in-force still participating in a deferral program, down from over 48,000 as of June 30, 2020. This represents approximately 3%smaller percentage of our total insured loans in-force as of September 30, 2020. For many borrowers, the six-month deferral period expired in September 2020. Therefore, on September 22, 2020, APRA released guidance regarding treatment of loans impacted by COVID-19, including options for loans to be restructured without being treated as delinquent. Lenders have been completing serviceability assessments to determine the most appropriate solutions for borrowers experiencing hardships, including, in some cases, extension of payment deferral programs. The Australian government continued to provide support for incomes, jobs and businesses with additional measures announced in the Federal Budget in October 2020. While the government programs and lender initiatives may lessen the effect of COVID-19 related losses to the business, uncertainties remain, and it could take a considerable amount of time for the economy to recover the lost output and employment resulting from the pandemic. We continue to actively consider the potential economic impacts and work closely with our lender customers to support borrowers who have been impacted by COVID-19.
As of the August 2020 release of its Statement on Monetary Policy, the Reserve Bank of Australia (“RBA”) noted that the outbreak of COVID-19 has caused the largest shock to economic activity in Australia since the 1930’s, with the peak to trough GDP decline over the first half of 2020 expected to have been around 7%. In addition, there have been large declines in employment and approximately 30% of the country’s working age population is receiving income support through government programs. Although recovery has begun, the nature and speed of recovery remains highly uncertain, and as a result, the pandemic is expected to have long-lasting effects on the economy. In October 2020, the RBA maintained its current policy settings, including keeping its official cash rate at 0.25%. The RBA noted that it will maintain highly accommodative policy settings as long as required and will not increase the cash rate target until progress is made toward full employment and it is confident that inflation will remain within a target range of 2% to 3%. The September 2020 unemployment rate decreased to 6.9% from 7.4% at the end of the second quarter of 2020 as the increase in the number of employed individuals outpaced an increase in participation. According to the RBA, while labor conditions have somewhat improved, unemployment and underemployment are likely to remain high for an extended period.
As of September 30, 2020, home prices in the combined capital cities of Australia were approximately 5% higher compared to September 30, 2019. The Sydney housing market was the main driver of growth, with annual home price increases of approximately 8%. Despite this annual growth, in September 2020, the combined capital cities recorded a month-over-month home price decline for the fifth consecutive month, largely due to decreases in Sydney and Melbourne. Due to COVID-19, the housing market outlook faces headwinds as fiscal support is reduced and labor markets remain weak.
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia completed a reviewportfolio. The largest portion of its premium earnings pattern in the fourth quarter of 2019, which resulted in no changesloss reserves has shifted to the earnings pattern adopted in the fourth quarter of 2017. The adjustment to our premium earnings pattern in the fourth quarter of 2017 was applied on a retrospective basis under U.S. GAAP, however, under local Australian Accounting Standards (“AAS”) this adjustment was applied on a prospective basis. Due to this divergence in accounting application, the financial results and certain metrics, such as the loss ratio and expense ratios, for our mortgage insurance business in Australia were different between the two accounting standards through the third quarter of 2020. These differences will continue in future periods but will become less significant as time passes. Our mortgage insurance business in Australia is expected to complete its annual review of its premium earnings pattern in the fourth quarter of 2020.
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia assessed the adequacy of its unearned premium liability under local AAS as part of its first quarter of 2020 results. The liability adequacy test under AAS resulted in a
121

deficiency, mostly driven by higher expected future claims. Accordingly, our Australia mortgage insurance business wrote-off AUD$182 million of its DAC balance as part of its first quarter of 2020 results. There was no deficiency adjustment under U.S. GAAP primarily due to a higher unearned premium reserve and a lower DAC balance. This further contributed to differences in results for our Australia mortgage insurance business under the two accounting standards for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Results of liability adequacy and premium deficiency tests conducted for AAS and U.S. GAAP, respectively, in the third quarter of 2020 did not indicate a deficiency and therefore, no additional charges were recorded.
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia had lower losses in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 as the impact of COVID-19 restrictions and government and lender support packages caused a change to the normal delinquency development and progression patterns, which resulted in favorable aging of existing delinquencies and lower new reported delinquencies, net of cures, in the current year. This was partially offset by a loss reserve strengthening primarily related to the economic impacts caused by COVID-19, particularly in Victoria, and to account for many aged delinquencies that are not proceeding to foreclosure at a normal pace due to court closures. Our loss reserve strengthening also included an increase in the provision for incurred but not reported losses on loans in payment deferral programs, which is largely based on the assumption that some of these loans will ultimately become delinquent regardless of being placed in the deferral program. The loss ratio for our Australia mortgage insurance business for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was 37%. Due to COVID-19, our mortgage insurance business in Australia anticipates claims and reported delinquencies to increase as we move into 2021. In addition, until normal patterns of delinquency development and progression return, we expect to continue to see increases in our incurred but not reported loss reserve provision, which could further materially impact losses.
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia had higher new insurance written in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 from ongoing strong lender customer mortgage origination volume on prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“flow insurance”) supported by continued low interest rates. Gross written premiums were also higher in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the third quarter of 2019 largelynewer book years as a result of higher flow new insurance written, while net earned premiums were lower primarily from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations.
COVID-19
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia is concentrated in a small numbergiven their significant representation of key customers. In October 2019, we renewed our supply and service contract with our largest customer, effective January 1, 2020, for a term of three years. In November 2018, we entered a new contract with our second largest customer, effective November 21, 2018, with a term of two years and the option to extend for an additional year at the customer’s discretion. In May 2020, following a request-for-proposal process, this customer advised our mortgage insurance business in Australia that the contract will not be renewed and will expire in November 2020. These two customers represented 59% and 11%, respectively, of our gross written premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Any termination, reduction or material change in relationship with one of them could have a material adverse effect on our future results because of our reliance on these key customers for the majority of our business. While the termination of the contract with our second largest customer will reduce gross premiums written in 2021, it is expected to modestly impact future financial results following the expiration of the existing contract in November 2020. One additional consideration related to our customer contracts is that some contain provisions that allow the customer the option to terminate their contract, on a prospective basis for new business, within a specified period following a ratings downgrade. Given the potential economic impacts of COVID-19, our mortgage insurance business in Australia could be subject to additional ratings downgrades in the future. If that occurs, the business will work with its customers to demonstrate its credit strength and endeavor to avoid termination of any existing contracts.
risk
Our mortgage insurance business in Australia evaluates its capital position in relation to the PCA as determined by APRA and utilizes its Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process as the framework to ensure that our Australia group of companies as a whole, and each regulated entity, are independently capitalized to meet regulatory requirements. As of September 30, 2020, its estimated PCA ratio was approximately 179%,
122

representing an increase from 177% as of June 30, 2020. Given the economic uncertainty surrounding
COVID-19,
APRA has provided guidance to insurers asking them to maintain caution in planning capital distributions, including dividends. Given this guidance and the uncertain economic outlook, our mortgage insurance business in Australia believes it is prudent to preserve capital to sustain its capital position. As a result, we do not expect to receive further dividends or other returns of capital from our mortgage insurance business in Australia for the remainder of 2020. The amount and timing of future dividends will depend on the economic recovery from COVID-19, among other factors, and may require APRA approval.
In September 2019, the Australian Government released details of the First Home Loan Deposit Scheme (“FHLDS”), which is designed to assist eligible first-time home buyers by providing a government guarantee to participating lenders on eligible loans equal to the difference between the deposit (of at least 5%) and 20% of the purchase price. Borrower income and regional property value caps apply, and the program is intended to support up to 10,000 eligible first-time home buyers each Australian Government fiscal year, which is July 1 through June 30. If the loan comes to an end or the loan principal balance reduces to below 80% of the value of the property at purchase, the government guarantee will terminate. The FHLDS became effective on January 1, 2020 with the annual limit of 10,000 loan guarantees reached for the first year of the program that ended June 30, 2020. As part of the 2020-2021 Federal Budget, in October 2020, the Australian Government committed an additional 10,000 FHLDS guarantees for the July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021 fiscal year. The additional 10,000 guarantees are limited to new home builds, and a revised set of property price caps will apply.

lower net investment income and higher losses mostly associated with the economic impacts caused by
COVID-19
in the current year.
Revenues
Premiums decreased predominantly from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations in the current year. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a decrease of $9 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Net investment income decreased largely from lower yields in the current year.
Net investment gains increased primarily from higher derivative gains and higher net gains from the sale of investment securities in the current year. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a decrease of $5 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves increased primarily from loss reserve strengthening of $42 million during the second and third quarters of 2020 reflecting the economic impacts caused by COVID-19, including provisions for incurred but not reported losses on loans in payment deferral programs. These increases were partially offset by favorable aging of existing delinquencies in the current year. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a decrease of $5 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Amortization of DAC and intangibles decreased largely from lower contract fees amortization in the current year.
We recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $5 million in the current year, which represented the full amount of goodwill related to our mortgage insurance business in Australia.
Provision for income taxes.
The effective tax rate was 30.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, consistent with our jurisdictional rate.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.
The decrease was predominantly related to lower premiums and lower net investment income, partially offset by higher net investment gains in the current year.
Australia Mortgage Insurance selected operating performance measures
As of September 30, 2020, our mortgage insurance business in Australia had structured insurance transactions with three lenders where it was in a secondary loss position. The insurance portfolio metrics associated with these transactions, which include insurance in-force, risk in-force, new insurance written, loans in-force and delinquent loans, are excluded from the following tables. These arrangements represented approximately $168 million and $152 million of risk in-force as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Our mortgage insurance business in Australia currently provides 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 of 35% that represents our highest expected average per-claim payment for any one underwriting year over the life of our business in Australia. We also have certain risk share arrangements where we provide pro-rata coverage of certain loans rather than 100% coverage. As a result, for loans with these risk share arrangements, the applicable pro-rata coverage amount provided is used when applying the factor.
Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force
Primary insurance in-force and risk in-force increased $12.5 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively, from changes attributable to foreign exchange rates. Excluding the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, primary insurance in-force and risk in-force decreased primarily driven by policy cancellations in the current year.
New insurance written
New insurance written increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily from higher lender customer flow mortgage origination volume supported by ongoing low interest rates. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was partially offset by lower mortgage insurance written on a bulk basis (“bulk insurance”) in the current year, as well as a decrease of $600 million attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Net premiums written
Most of our Australian 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 September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our unearned premium reserves were $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively.
Net premiums written increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to higher flow new insurance written from an increase in mortgage origination volume in the current year. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 included an increase of $2 million and a decrease of $9 million, respectively, attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates.

The loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. The expense ratio (net earned premiums) is the ratio of general expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio (net premiums written) is the ratio of general expenses to net premiums written. In our mortgage insurance business in Australia, general expenses consist of acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals, amortization of DAC and intangibles and goodwill impairment charges.
The loss ratio increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily attributable to lower premiums from portfolio seasoning and lower policy cancellations in the current year.
The expense ratio (net earned premiums) increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily from lower net earned premiums as discussed above.
The expense ratio (net premiums written) decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily from higher net premiums written primarily due to an increase in flow mortgage origination volume.

U.S. Life Insurance segment
COVID-19
The most significant impactsimpact in our U.S. life insurance businesses from
COVID-19 are
in the first quarter of 2021 was related to the current low interest rate environment and continued elevated mortality. Our long-term care insurance products could bewere favorably impacted by higher mortality in the current year. Conversely, higher mortality rates had unfavorable impacts in our life insurance products and we have observed minimal impact from
COVID-19
in our fixed annuity products. Our products were also negatively impacted by the currentcontinued low interest rate environment, particularly as it relatesrelated to loss recognition testing and asset adequacy analysis as well as experiencing further delays in approvals for in-force rate actions. These impacts would be partially offset by higher mortality which is favorable to our long-term care insurance products. Future changes in morbidity experience may also impact our long-term care insurance business. The low interest rate environment as well as volatility in equity markets have adversely impacted earnings in our fixed annuity products with limited offsetting benefit from higher mortality. Conversely, higher mortality rates could lower profitability in our life insurance products.the fourth quarter of 2020.
In our long-term care insurance products, we have experienced some degree of higher mortality during
COVID-19
which has had a favorable impact on claim reserves and active policy reserves.our operating results. Although it is not our practice to track cause of death for policyholders and claimants, we believe the favorable results of our long-term care insurance business in the first quarter of 2021 and during 2020 were likely impacted by
COVID-19,
but we expect the impacts to be temporary. We believe
COVID-19
has accelerated mortality on our most vulnerable claimants, which may reduce mortality rates in future periods as the second and third quartersimpacts of 2020.the pandemic subside. We have also experienced lower new claims incidence; however, we do not expect this to be permanent but rather a temporary reduction while
shelter-in-place
and social distancing protocols are in effect. Although new pending claim volumes increased sequentially in the first quarter of 2021, near term incidence may continue to be impacted by
COVID-19.
We have temporarily discontinued in-personcontinue to utilize virtual assessments to assess eligibility for benefits and are utilizing virtual while

social distancing protocols are relaxed. For claimants without the technology to perform virtual assessments, we have alternate options for gathering information. Our long-term care insurance benefit utilization will be monitored for impact;impact, although it is too early to tell the magnitude and/or direction of that impact.
Additionally, our U.S. life insurance companies are dependent on the approval of actuarially justified
in-force
rate actions in our long-term care insurance business, including those rate actions which were previously
130

filed and are currently pending review and approval. We have experienced some delays and could experience additional delays in receiving approvals of these rate actions during
COVID-19,
although we dodid not expecthave a significant impact on our financial results in the first quarter of 2021 or during 2020 as a result of these delays.
We continuehave continued to provide customer service to our policyholders during this uncertain time and are available to address questions or concerns regarding their policies. We are continually assessing our operational processes and monitoring potential impacts to morbidity due to
COVID-19.
In our U.S life insurance companies, we have complied with guidance issued by certain insurance regulators, such as mandates that policies cannot be lapsed or cancelled if premiums are not paid or requirements to provide extensions of grace periods during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although most of these mandates have been lifted, we continue to monitor developments related to COVID-19 such as state directives that are issued during this time and we will comply with any new guidance issued by our state insurance regulators. For statutory reporting, we were not required to non-admit premium receivables over 90 days if we were in a no lapse mandate through September 29, 2020. We may also seek permitted practices during this time to help our capital position and our ongoing risk-based capital (“RBC”) requirements if COVID-19 continues for an extended period of time. We have also contacted our reinsurance counterparties to inform them of the actions we have taken in response to state bulletins on extension of grace periods and prohibition of lapsation as well as offering flexibility to our policyholders who are on claim.
We have not experienced a significant impact on our premiums in our U.S. life insurance businesses while there have been premium deferrals/grace period mandates in place in certain states. Given our current ratings, our sales volume is low in our long-term care insurance products. In 2016, we suspended sales of our traditional life insurance and fixed annuity products. For traditional life insurance policies, where regular premiums are typically required, and universal life insurance contracts, where premiums are typically flexible but frequently require minimum premiumscontinue to be paid, subject to state mandates for additional grace periods during COVID-19, policies follow normal lapse or nonforfeiture options, if the policyholders decided not to pay their premiums. There is no requirement to pay premiums in our fixed annuity contracts and benefits would adjust contractually based on actual premiums paid in these products.
We actively monitor cash and highly liquid investment positions in each of our U.S. life insurance companies against operating targets that are designed to ensure that we will have the cash necessary to meet our obligations as they come due. The targets are set based on stress scenarios that have the effect of increasing our expected cash outflows and decreasing our expected cash inflows. Liquidity risk is assessed by comparing subsidiary cash to potential cash needs under a stressed liquidity scenario. The stressed scenario reflects potential policyholder surrenders, variability of normal operating cash flow and potential increase in collateral requirements under our cleared derivative program.
While the ongoing impact of
COVID-19
is very difficult to predict, the related outcomes and impact on the U.S. life insurance business will depend on the length and severity of the pandemic and shape of the economic recovery. FurtherFuture declines in interest rates as well as equity market volatility as a result of
COVID-19
would increase reserves and capital requirements in our U.S. life insurance business. For sensitivities related to interest rates, lapses and mortality on our U.S. life insurance products, see “Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
We will continue to monitor
COVID-19
impacts and evaluate all of our assumptions that may need updating as a result of longer-term trends related to the pandemic.
Trends and conditions
Results of our U.S. life insurance businesses depend significantly upon the extent to which our actual future experience is consistent with assumptions and methodologies we have used in calculating our reserves. Many factors can affect the results of our U.S. life insurance businesses. Because these factors are not known in
131

advance, change over time, are difficult to accurately predict and are inherently uncertain, we cannot determine with precision the ultimate amounts we will pay for actual claims or the timing of those payments. We will continue to monitor our experience and assumptions closely and make changes to our assumptions and methodologies, as appropriate, for our U.S. life insurance products. Even small changes in assumptions or small deviations of actual experience from assumptions can have, and in the past have had, material impacts on our DAC amortization, reserve levels, results of operations and financial condition.
Our liability for policy and contract claims is reviewed quarterly and we conduct a detailed review of our claim reserve assumptions and methodologies for our long-term care insurance business annually typically during the third or fourth quarter of each year. Our liability for future policy benefits is reviewed at least annually as a part of our loss recognition testing typically performed in the third or fourth quarter of each year. As part of loss recognition testing, we also review the recoverability of DAC and PVFP at least annually. In addition, we perform cash flow testing separately for each of our U.S. life insurance companies on a statutory accounting basis annually. We will complete our annual review of long-term care insurance claim reserve assumptions and complete our loss recognition and cash flow testing as well as assumption reviews in the fourth quarter of 2020. Our review of assumptions, as part of our testing in the fourth quarter of 2020, will include expected claim incidence and terminations, benefit utilization, mortality, persistency, interest rates and in-force rate actions, among other assumptions. We will be specifically reviewing the basic long-term care insurance incurred but not reported reserve calculation, including the assumptions for new claim counts. While this work is ongoing, current trends do not indicate a need to strengthen the claims reserve as assumptions appear to be holding up in the aggregate.
Results of our U.S. life insurance businesses are also impacted by interest rates. Low interest rates put pressure on the profitability and returns of these businesses as higher yielding investments mature and are
95

replaced with lower-yielding investments. We seek to manage the impact of low interest rates through asset-liability management as well as interest rate hedging strategies for a portion of our long-term care insurance product cash flows. Additionally, certain products have implicit and explicit rate guarantees or optionality that are significantly impacted by changes in interest rates. For a further discussion of the impact of interest rates on our U.S. life insurance businesses, see “Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
The RBCrisk-based capital (“RBC”) of each of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries exceeded the level of RBC that would require any of them to take or become subject to any corrective action in their respective domiciliary state as of December 31, 2019.2020. However, the RBC ratio of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries has been negatively impacted over the past few years as a result of statutory losses driven by the declining performance of the business and increases in our statutory reserves, including results of Actuarial Guideline 38, cash flow testing and assumption reviews particularly in our long-term care insurance business. InHowever, in the first quarter of 2021, the RBC ratio increased from 2020 low interest rates and equity market declines negatively impacted our variable annuity products resulting in material statutory reserve increases. However, in the second and third quartersas a result of 2020, elevated mortalityhigher earnings in our long-term care insurance business mainly driven by claim terminations and equity market recovery impacts on
in-force
rate actions as well as in our variable annuity products favorably impacted our statutory capitalfrom favorable interest rates and surplus. Any future statutory losses would decrease the RBC ratio of our U.S. life insurance subsidiaries.equity markets. We continue to face challenges in our principal life insurance subsidiaries, particularly those subsidiaries that rely heavily on
in-force
rate actions as a source of earnings and capital. We may see variability in statutory results and a further decline in the RBC ratios of these subsidiaries given the time lag between the approval of
in-force
rate actions versus when the benefits from the
in-force
rate actions (including increased premiums and associated benefit reductions) are fully realized in our financial results. FurtherFuture declines in the RBC ratio of our life insurance subsidiaries could result in heightened supervision and regulatory action.
Long-term care insurance
The long-term profitability of our long-term care insurance business depends upon how our actual experience compares with our valuation assumptions, including but not limited to morbidity, mortality and persistency. If any of our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, our reserves may be inadequate, which in the past
132

has had, and may in the future have, a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and business. Results of our long-term care insurance business are also influenced by our ability to achieve
in-force
rate actions, improve investment yields and manage expenses and reinsurance, among other factors. Changes in regulations or government programs, including long-term care insurance rate action legislation, regulation and/or practices, could also impact our long-term care insurance business either positively or negatively.
Our assumptions are sensitive to slight variability in actual experience and small changes in assumptions could result in decreases in the margin of our long-term care insurance blocks to at/or below zero in future years. To the extent, based on reviews, the margin of our long-term care insurance block, excluding the acquired block, is negative, we would be required to recognize a loss, by amortizing more DAC and/or establishing additional benefit reserves. For our acquired block of long-term care insurance, the impacts of adverse changes in assumptions would also be reflected as a loss if our margin for this block is reduced below zero by establishing additional benefit reserves. A significant decrease in our loss recognition testing margin of our long-term care insurance blocks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
As a result of the review of our claim reserves completed in prior years, we have been establishing higher claim reserves on new claims, which has negatively impacted earnings and we expect this to continue going forward. Also, average claim reserves for new claims are trending higher over time as the mix of claims continues to evolve, with an increasing number of policies with higher daily benefit amounts and higher inflation factors going on claim. In addition, although new claim counts on our older long-term care insurance blocks of business will continue to decrease as the blocks run off, we are gaining more experience on our larger new blocks of business and expect continued growth in new claims on these blocks as policyholders reach older attained ages with higher likelihood of going on claim.
96

Given the ongoing challenges in our long-term care insurance business, we continue pursuing initiatives to improve the risk and profitability profile of our business including: premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our
in-force
policies; managing expense levels; executing investment strategies targeting higher returns; and enhancing our financial and actuarial analytical capabilities. Executing on our multi-year long-term care insurance
in-force
rate action plan with premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions on our legacy long-term care insurance policies is critical to the business. For an update on
in-force
rate actions, refer to “Significant Developments—U.S. Life Insurance.” As of September 30, 2020, we have suspended sales in Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont and Montana, and will consider taking similar actions in the future in other states where we are unable to obtain satisfactory rate increases on in-force policies. We will also consider litigation against states that decline actuarially justified rate increases. As of September 30, 2020, we were in litigation with one state that has refused to approve actuarially justified rate increases.
The approval process for
in-force
rate actions and the amount and timing of the premium rate increases and associated benefit reductions approved vary by state. In certain states, the decision to approve or disapprove a rate increase can take a significant amount of time, and the approved amount may be phased in over time. After approval, insureds are provided with written notice of the increase and increases are generally applied on the insured’s next policy anniversary date. As a result, the benefits of any rate increase are not fully realized until the implementation cycle is complete and are, therefore, expected to be realized over time.
We also manage riskIn 2019, the NAIC established the Long-Term Care Insurance (EX) Task Force to address efforts to create a national standard for reviewing and capital allocated to ourapproving long-term care insurance business through utilizationrate increase requests. This task force is charged with developing a consistent national approach for reviewing rate increase requests that results in actuarially appropriate increases being granted by the states in a timely manner and eliminates cross-state rate subsidization, among others. The task force is planning to provide a proposal to the Executive (EX) Committee of external reinsurance in the form of coinsurance. We executed external reinsurance agreements to reinsure 20% of all sales of our individual long-term care insurance products that have been introduced since early 2013. External new business reinsurance is dependent on a number of factors, including price, availability, risk tolerance and capital levels. Over time, there can be no assurance that affordable, or any, reinsurance will continue to be available. We also have external reinsurance on some older blocks of business which includes a treaty on a yearly renewable term basis on business that was written between 1998 and 2003. This yearly renewable term reinsurance provides coverage for claims on those policies for 15 years afterNAIC by the policy was written. After
133

15 years, reinsurance coverage ends for policies not on claim, while reinsurance coverage continues for policies on claim until the claim ends. The 15-year coverage on the policies written in 2003 expired in 2018; therefore, any new claims will not have reinsurance coverage under this treaty. Since 2013, we have seen, and may continue to see, an increase in our benefit costs as policies with reinsurance coverage exhaust their benefits or terminate and policies which are not covered by reinsurance go on claim.Summer 2021 National Meeting.
Life insurance
Results of our life insurance business are impacted primarily by mortality, persistency, investment yields, expenses, reinsurance and statutory reserve requirements, among other factors. We no longer solicit sales of traditional life insurance products; however, we continue to service our existing retained and reinsured blocks of business.
Mortality levels may deviate each period from historical trends. Overall mortality experience was higher for the three months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 compared to three months ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, attributable in part to
COVID-19.
We have experienced higher mortality than our then-current and
priced-for
assumptions in recent years for our universal life insurance blocks. We have also been experiencing higher mortality related charges resulting from an increase in rates charged by our reinsurance partners reflecting natural block aging and higher mortality compared to expectations.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we will performperformed our annual review of life insurance assumptions and loss recognition test. Our review will focusfocused on assumptions for interest rates, persistency and mortality.mortality, among other assumptions. As part of our review in the fourth quarter of 2019,2020, we recorded $107a $60 million of
after-tax charges
benefit in our term universal and term universal life insurance products primarily from favorable assumption changesupdates. The favorable updates in our term universal life insurance product were primarily driven by a model refinement related to persistency and grace period timing. Other assumption updates mostly focused on future cost of insurance rates and long-term trends in mortality, persistency and interest rates. We also recorded a $50 million
after-tax
charge related to universal life insurance DAC recoverability testing primarily as a result of reflecting these updated assumptions. In the lower interest rate environment.first quarter of 2021, we recorded an additional $17 million
after-tax
charge in our universal life insurance products in connection with DAC recoverability testing.
We also updated mortality assumptions for certain universal and term universal life insurance products as well as our term life insurance products in the fourth quarter of 2019.2020. Our mortality experience for older ages and late-duration premium periods and conversion products is emerging. Assumption changes in our term life insurance products focused on mortality improvements during the post-level premium period based on observed trends in emerging experience. This change to the mortality assumption increased the loss recognition testing
97

margin in our term life insurance products. We will continue to regularly review our mortality assumptions as well as all of our other assumptions in light of emerging experience. We may be required to make further adjustments in the future to our assumptions which could impact our universal and term universal life insurance reserves or our loss recognition testing results of our term life insurance products. Any further materially adverse changes to our assumptions, including mortality or interest rates, could have a materially negative impact on our results of operations, financial condition and business.
Compared to 1998 and prior years, we had a significant increase in term life insurance sales between 1999 and 2009, particularly in 1999 and 2000. The blocks of business issued since 2000 vary in size as compared to the large 1999 and 2000 blocks of business. As our large
10-
and
15-year
level premium period term life insurance policies written in 1999 and 2000 transitioned to their post-level guaranteed premium rate period, we experienced lower persistency compared to our pricing and valuation assumptions which accelerated DAC amortization in previous years. As our large
20-year
level premium period business written in 1999 entered its post-level period, we experienced higher lapses resulting in accelerated DAC amortization in 2019. This trend continued in the first quarter of 2020 for the 1999 block, as it reached the end of its level premium period. Additionally, we have experienced a similar trend with the
20-year
level premium period business written in 2000 as it entered its post-level period during 2020 and we expect that trendinto the current year due to continue in the fourth quarter of 2020 and into 2021 albeit to a lesser extent.

grace period. If lapse experience on future
10-,
15-
and
20-year
level premium period blocks emerges similar to our large
20-year
level premium period business written in 1999 and 2000, we would expect volatility in DAC amortization if persistency is lower than original assumptions, which would reduce profitability in in our term life insurance products. However, going forward, given our smaller block sizes and reinsurance agreements are in place, we would expect the impact to DAC amortization on policies entering
134

the post-level period to be lower than what we experienced in 2019 and 2020. Additionally, the extension of grace periods or no lapsation mandated by state regulators during COVID-19 has impacted the timing and level of lapses for these blocks of business. We have also taken actions to mitigate potentially unfavorable impacts through the use of reinsurance, particularly for certain term life insurance policies issued between 2001 and 2004.
We began selling term universal life insurance in late 2009, with sales peaking in 2011 prior to discontinuing sales of the product in 2012. We priced these products assuming high lapses upon expiration of the level premium period and we continue to expect those higher lapses. As our
10-year
level premium period term universal life insurance policies written in 2009 and 2010 enterentered their post-level premium period in late 2019 and 2020, we recordrecorded higher reserves during the premium grace period and release the reserveswhich were released when the policies lapse. Welapsed. With the model refinement implemented as part of our 2020 assumption updates, we no longer expect further reserve increasesto see this dynamic to the same extent when term universal life insurance blocks enter their post-level period in these blocks through the remainder of 2020 and into 2021 until the number of policies exiting the grace period exceeds the number of policies entering the post-level guaranteed premium rate period. The extension of grace periods and reinstatements mandated by state regulators during COVID-19 have temporarily increased the level of reserves held for these blocks of business.
future.
Fixed annuities
Results of our fixed annuities business are affected primarily by investment performance, interest rate levels, the slope of the interest rate yield curve, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality, persistency and expense and commission levels. We no longer solicit sales of traditional fixed annuity products; however, we continue to service our existing retained and reinsured blocks of business.
We monitor and change crediting rates on fixed annuities on a regular basis to maintain spreads and targeted returns, if applicable. However, if interest rates remain at current levels or decrease, we could see declines in spreads which impact the margins on our products, particularly our single premium immediate annuity products. Due to the premium deficiency that existed in 2016, we continuehave continued to monitor our single premium immediate annuity products more frequently than annually and recorded additional charges to net income during 2019.annually. If investment performance deteriorates or interest rates decrease or remain at the current levels for an extended period of time, we could incur additional charges in the future. The impacts of future adverse changes in our assumptions could result in the establishment of additional future policy benefit reserves and would be immediately reflected as a loss if our margin for this block is again reduced below zero. Any favorable variation would result in additional margin but no immediate benefit to income and would result in higher income recognitionrecognized over the remaining duration of the
in-force block.
block but would not have an immediate benefit to net income.

For fixed indexed annuities, equity market and interest rate performance and volatility could also result in additional gains or losses, although associated hedging activities are expected to partially mitigate these impacts.

Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our long-term care insurance business increased $38$94 million primarily due tofrom an increase in claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality, as well as favorable development on IBNR claims and higher investment income in the current year. We also increased reserves by $76 million in the current year favorable development on incurred but not reported claimsto account for changes to incidence and higher net investment income. These increases were partially offsetmortality experience driven by higher frequency and severity of new claims in the current year.

20-year
term life insurance block written in the end of 2000 as it entered its post-level premium period following the
60-day
grace period, andpartially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products and a DAC impairment of $17 million in our universal life insurance products in the current year compared to the prior year. The prior year included an unfavorable adjustment of $10 million related to higher ceded reinsurance rates.
 
Adjusted operating income available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in our fixed annuities business increased $21$24 million predominantly from $13 million of unfavorable charges relatedmainly attributable to loss recognition testinglower reserves and DAC amortization in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the priorcurrent year that did not recur and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuity products, partially offset by lower net spreads in the current year.annuities.
Revenues
Premiums
 
Our long-term care insurance business increased $9$4 million largely from $25$23 million of increased premiums in the current year from
in-force
rate actions approved and implemented, partially offset by policy terminations and policies entering
paid-up
status in the current year.
 
Our life insurance business decreased $15$8 million mainly attributable to the continued runoff of our term and whole life insurance products in the current year.
Net investment income
 
Our long-term care insurance business increased $24$46 million largely from an increase in average invested assets.

Net investment gains (losses)
 
The increase inchange to net investment gains of $27 million in the current year from net investment losses of $55 million in the prior year in our long-term care insurance business was primarilypredominantly related to net gains from the sale of U.S. government securities in the current year due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure as a result of the prolonged low interest rate environment. The change was also attributable to higher unrealized gains from changes in the fair value of equity securities in the current year.
Our life insurance business had net investmentyear compared to unrealized losses in the prior year and from derivative gains of $4 million in the current year compared to net investmentderivative losses of $2 million in the prior year.

The decrease in net investment losses in our fixed annuities business was primarily driven by higher derivative gains, partially offset by higher losses on embedded derivatives related to our fixed indexed annuity products in the current year.
Benefits and expenses
Benefits and other changes in policy reserves
 
Our long-term care insurance business decreased $15$99 million primarily due to an increase in claim terminations driven mostly by higher mortality in the current year and from favorable development on incurred but not reported claims. Given the lower new claim counts submitted during COVID-19, incurred but not reported reserves were strengthened by $24 million reflecting our assumption that new claim incidence during this period will ultimately return to normal levels, partially offsetting the favorable development on incurred but not reportedIBNR claims. These decreases were partially offset by aging of the
in-force
block and higher incremental reserves of $50$133 million recorded in connection with an accrual for profits followed by losses, aging oflosses. In addition, we increased claim reserves by $67 million reflecting our assumption that
COVID-19
accelerated our mortality experience on the in-force block (including higher frequency of new claims), and higher severitymost vulnerable claimants, leaving the remaining claim population less likely to terminate compared to the
pre-pandemic
average population. Given our assumption that
COVID-19
has temporarily decreased the number of new claims insubmitted, IBNR reserves were also strengthened by $29 million, partially offsetting the current year. The decrease was also partially offset by a $33 million less favorable impact from reduced benefits in the current year related to in-force rate actions approved and implemented.development on IBNR claims.
 
Our life insurance business increased $41decreased $20 million primarily attributable to higher reserves recorded in the prior year on our
10-year
term universal life insurance block which entered its post-level premium period, partially offset by higher mortality in our universal and term universal life insurance products in the current year compared to the prior year and from higher reserves in our 10-year term universal life insurance block entering its post-level premium period during the premium grace period.year.
 
Our fixed annuities business decreased $30$23 million principally from $17 million oflower reserves in our fixed indexed annuities driven by favorable equity market and interest rate changes in the current year compared to an unfavorable chargesmarket in the prior year that did not recur related to loss recognition testing and higher mortality in our single premium immediate annuity productsannuities in the current year.
Interest credited.
The decrease in interest credited was related to our life insurance and fixed annuities businessbusinesses largely driven by a decline in the average account valuevalues and from lower crediting rates in the current year.
Acquisition and operating expenses, net of deferrals.
The increase was predominantly related to our long-term care insurance business principally related to higher premium taxes, commissions and other expenses of $26 million associated with our
in-force
rate action plan and restructuring costs of $10 million in the current year.

Amortization of deferred acquisition costs and intangibles
Our life insurance business decreased $3 million principally from prior year lapses in the large
20-year
term life insurance block written in 2000, partially offset by a DAC impairment of $22 million in our universal life insurance products largely due to lower future estimated gross profits.
Our fixed annuities business decreased $16 million primarily related to lower DAC amortization reflecting the impact of favorable market changes in the current year.
Interest expense.

pre-tax income in the current year.

Runoff segment
COVID-19
The most significant impacts from COVID-19 in our Runoff segment are related to the current low interest rate environment and volatile equity markets. The low interest rate environment and volatile equity markets have adversely impacted earnings in our variable annuity products.
Although certain states had mandates in place that policies cannot be lapsed and a few still require grace period extensions, we have not experienced a significant impact on our Runoff segment. Our variable annuity, variable life insurance and corporate-owned life insurance products have not been actively sold since 2011. There is no requirement to pay premiums in the majority of our variable annuity contracts and benefits would adjust contractually based on actual premiums paid in these products.
While the ongoing impact of COVID-19 is very difficult to predict, the related outcomes and impact on our Runoff segment will depend on the length and severity of the pandemic and shape of the economic recovery. We could see additional losses and declines in statutory risk-based capital driven by increases to the required capital supporting our variable annuity products, as a result of the decline in equity markets and low interest rates. For a further discussion of the impact of interest rates, see “Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Trends and conditions
Results of our Runoff segment are affected primarily by investment performance, interest rate levels, net interest spreads, equity market conditions, mortality, surrenders and scheduled maturities. In addition, the results of our Runoff segment can significantly impact our regulatory capital requirements, distributable earnings and liquidity. We use hedging strategies as well as liquidity planning and asset-liability management to help mitigate the impacts. In addition, we may consider reinsurance opportunities to further mitigate volatility in results and manage capital in the future.
144

Equity market volatility and interest rate movements have caused fluctuations in the results of our variable annuity products and regulatory capital requirements. In the future, equity and interest rate market performance and volatility could result in additional gains or losses in these products although associated hedging activities are expected to partially mitigate these impacts.

Adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders
The adjusted operating loss available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders increased primarily related to lower tax benefits, partially offset by lower interest expense in the current year.
Revenues
Net investment losses in the current year were primarily driven by derivative losses. Net investment gains in the prior year were largely from net gains from the sale of investment securities and derivative gains.
Benefits and expenses
Interest expense decreased largely driven by the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020.
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by tax expenses from gains on forward starting swaps settled prior to the enactment of the TCJA, unfavorable provision

Political gridlock on new fiscal stimulus measures and the upcoming U.S. presidential election have contributed to increased market volatility as concerns over the election results, including the potential for a contested election, and drastic policy shifts under a new administration weigh on the market. Equity markets fluctuated in the third quarter of 2020, with the S&P 500 ending the third quarter of 2020 higher than the second quarter of 2020 but down from its all-time highs set in early September 2020.
At the end of the third quarter of 2020,March 31, 2021, we did not have any modifications or extensions of commercial mortgage loans that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Modified loans represented 10%2% of our total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, as borrowers have sought additional relief related to
COVID-19.
We are working with individual borrowers impacted by
COVID-19
to provide alternative forms of relief for a specified period of time. The modified loan population continues to decrease as modification terms expire and properties stabilize. Most of our borrowers are current on payments and we do not anticipate a significant impact from troubled debt restructurings in 2020.
The United Kingdom completed its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) on January 31, 2020. In accordance with the current withdrawal agreement, the legal exit is followed by a transition period that ends on December 31, 2020, during which the United Kingdom continues to remain within the European Union’s single market and customs union. During the transition period, the United Kingdom is expected to negotiate and finalize a trade agreement with the European Union which will lay out the terms of the future trading relation between the two parties. The nature, timing and implications of these trade negotiations remain uncertain.
Our investment portfolio maintained approximately $3.0 billion of United Kingdom exposure, or approximately 5% of total fixed maturity securities as of September 30, 2020. These assets were primarily U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-income investments and we held no direct United Kingdom sovereign exposure. While the ultimate range of Brexit outcomes could lead to potential credit devaluation or rating agency downgrades of our United Kingdom related investments, at this time, we do not believe there is a material risk of investment impairments arising from the various Brexit scenarios.

Derivatives
Several of our master swap agreements previously contained credit downgrade provisions that allowed either party to assign or terminate the derivative transaction if the other party’s long-term unsecured credit or financial strength rating was below the limit defined in the applicable agreement. We renegotiated with many of our counterparties to remove the credit downgrade provisions from the master swap agreements entirely or replace them with a provision that allows the counterparty to terminate the derivative transaction if the RBC ratio of the applicable insurance company goes below a certain threshold and as of September 30, 2020, none of our derivatives transactions were subject to credit downgrade provisions.threshold. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the RBC ratios of the respective insurance companies were above the thresholds negotiated in the applicable master swap agreements and therefore, no counterparty had rights to take action against us under the RBC threshold provisions.
As of September 30, 2020, $6.2March 31, 2021, $6.0 billion notional of our derivatives portfolio was cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”). The customer swap agreements that govern our cleared derivatives contain provisions that enable our clearing agents to request initial margin in excess of CME requirements. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, we posted initial margin of $132$97 million to our clearing agents, which represented approximately $39$29 million more than was otherwise required by the clearinghouse. Because our clearing agents
152

serve as guarantors of our obligations to the CME, the customer agreements contain broad termination provisions that are not specifically dependent on ratings. As of September 30, 2020, $11.8March 31, 2021, $10.6 billion notional of our derivatives portfolio was in bilateral
over-the-counter (“OTC”)
derivative transactions pursuant to which we have posted aggregate independent amounts of $440$508 million and are holding collateral from counterparties in the amount of $636$110 million.
In July 2017, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), with its full elimination to occur after 2021. The announcement indicates that LIBOR may not continue to be available on the current basis (or at all) after 2021. The last committed publication date for LIBOR is December 31, 2021. The Alternate Reference Rate Committee, convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the New York Federal Reserve Bank, has endorsed the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as its preferred replacement benchmark for U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR is calculated and published by the New York Federal Reserve Bank and reflects the combination of three overnight U.S. Treasury Repo Rates. The rate is different from LIBOR, in that it is a risk-free rate, is backward-looking instead of forward-looking, is a secured rate and currently is available primarily as an overnight rate rather than as a
1-,
3- and
or
6-month rates
rate available for LIBOR. Upon the announcement, we formed a working group comprised of finance, investments, derivative, and tax professionals, as well as lawyers (the “Working Group”) to evaluate contracts and perform analysis of our LIBOR-based derivative instrument and investment exposure, as well as debt (including subordinated debt and Federal Home Loan Bank loans), reinsurance agreements and institutional products within the Runoff segment, as a result of the elimination of LIBOR. The Working Group took inventory of all investments with LIBOR exposure and identified nearly 400 instruments.
We employ derivatives primarily for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk. The more closely a rate hedging instrument aligns with Treasury rate movements, the more effective it is. As a result, to the extent changes in SOFR in relation to Treasury movements were to differ meaningfully from those of LIBOR, a SOFR-based hedge could be relatively less effective. We currently track both LIBOR and SOFR changes and analyze each in comparison to Treasury rate movements. We have discovered that the difference between the two comparisons is de minimis. Therefore, we do not believe a move to SOFR will have a material impact oncompleted our derivatives portfolio. Although we expect a minimal impact from this conversion, we remain actively engaged with the broader financial services community on the topicassessment of SOFR, including conversations with peers, derivatives clearinghouses, bilateral dealers and external legal counsel. With regard to derivatives, we expect the process for implementing SOFR as a replacement rate to be relatively seamless. The International Swap and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) has developed a contractual supplement to derivatives trading documentation that includes triggers and fallbacks for determining the replacement for a benchmark rate. The supplement may be agreed to between counterparties or through an ISDA protocol. In addition, ISDA has drafted an amendment to the 2006 Interbank Offered Rate definitions and a related protocol for legacy transactions.
For our other instruments and contracts, including investments, debt and reinsurance contracts, there is a wide variety in replacement language ranging from a rate freeze to silence on the matter. With respect to instruments that include a rate replacement, we will comply with the process prescribed by each instrument. For investments that do not contain such a replacement, we will generally endeavor to agree upon a replacement rate with our counterparties well in advance of LIBOR’s transition. In some cases, such as our long-term junior subordinated notes that mature in 2066 and are linked to three-month LIBOR, we may decide not to replace LIBOR which would lock-in the last published rate. We understand that the investment community is inclined to adopt SOFR as a substitute rate. Therefore, the adoption of SOFR will add certainty to the process of replacing LIBOR as the reference rate for many instruments. We do acknowledge the complications in calculating the credit spread necessary to equate SOFR to LIBOR and will monitor the potential risk.
We are at different stages of assessing operational readiness for LIBOR cessation related to our various instruments. These stages range from derivatives, where we are fully operationally ready, to other productsinstruments and instruments, as well as tax impacts, where we have just begun our assessment process. Our Working Group will
153

continue to monitor the process of elimination and replacement of LIBOR. Since the initial announcement, we have terminated a portion of our LIBOR-based swaps and entered into alternative rate swaps. In anticipation of the elimination of LIBOR, we plan to continue to convert our remaining LIBOR-based derivatives in a similar manner. In addition, our
non-recourse
funding obligations with interest rates based on
one-month
LIBOR were redeemed in January 2020. We expect to implement additional measures that we believe will ease the transition from LIBOR. Even though we have begun to take these actions, as described above, it is too early to determine the ultimate impact the elimination of LIBOR will have on our results of operations or financial condition.

Yields are based on net investment income as reported under U.S. GAAP and are consistent with how we measure our investment performance for management purposes. Yields are annualized, for interim periods, and are calculated as net investment income as a percentage of average quarterly asset carrying values except for fixed maturity securities, derivatives and derivative counterparty collateral, which exclude unrealized fair value adjustments and securities lending activity, which is included in other invested assets and is calculated net of the corresponding securities lending liability.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, gross annualized weighted-average investment yields decreased principallyincreased from lower yieldshigher investment income on higher average invested assets. Net investment income included $10$7 million of higher bond calls and prepayments, $9 million of higher limited partnership income and $6 million of higher income related to inflation-driven volatility on TIPS, partially offset by $3 million of lower prepayment speed adjustments on structured securities in the current year compared to $2 million of limited partnership losses from equity-based adjustments in the prior year.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, annualized weighted-average investment yields decreased primarily driven by lower yields on higher average invested assets. Net investment income also included $7 million

securities due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure management as a result of the prolonged low interest rate environment. We recorded net gains related to the sale of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities of $16 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019.
We recorded a $4 million write-down of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities during the three months ended September 30, 2020 under the newly adopted current expected credit loss standard associated with the write-down of securities we intend to sell or will be required to sell prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis.
We recorded $25 million of higher net gains on limited partnerships during the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily driven by higher unrealized gains from favorable performance of private equity investments in the current year.
Net investment gainslosses related to derivatives of $22$48 million during the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 were primarily associated with embedded derivatives related tohedging programs that support our runoff variable annuity products, and gains from our foreign currency hedging programs that support our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment, partially offset by losses related to derivativesgains from hedging programs used to protect statutory surplus from equity market fluctuations.
Net investment losses related to derivatives of $29 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019 were primarily associated with various hedging programs that support our Australia Mortgage Insurance segment, as well as our fixed indexed annuity and runoff variable annuity products.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019
 
We recorded net gains related to the sale of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities of $457 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 driven primarily from the sale of U.S. government securities due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure management as a result of the prolonged low interest rate environment. We recorded net gains related to the sale of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities of $63 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
We recorded a $5 million credit loss and a $4 million write-down of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, as well as credit losses related to bank loan investments and off-balance sheet credit exposures of $6 million and $3 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 under the newly adopted current expected credit loss standard reflecting emerging credit distress due mostly to COVID-19.
The change to net unrealized losses on equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 from net unrealized gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily from unfavorable equity market performance in the current year compared to favorable equity market performance in the prior year. We had $18 million of higher net gains on limited partnership investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily driven by favorable performance of private equity investments in the current year.

. Total assets increased $3,583decreased $7,189 million from $101,342$105,747 million as of December 31, 20192020 to $104,925$98,558 million as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
 
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets increased $4,688decreased $4,339 million primarily from increasesdecreases of $4,077$3,264 million, $770$597 million and $390$340 million in fixed maturity securities, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and other invested assets, and equity securities, respectively. The increasedecrease in fixed maturity securities was predominantly related to higher unrealized gains mostly associated with a decrease in unrealized gains due to an increase in interest rates and from net purchases in the current year. The increasedecrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was largely related to the redemption of $338 million of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes that matured in February 2021, payments made to AXA of $247 million under the promissory note and the repurchase of $146 million principal amount of senior notes in the current year that are due in September 2021. These decreases to cash were partially offset by net proceeds of approximately $370 million received from the sale of Genworth Australia and from net sales of investment securities in the current year. The decrease in other invested assets was principally from higherlower derivative assets driven mostly by lowervaluations due to an increase in interest rates, andpartially offset by additional capital investments in limited partnerships in the current year. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $561 million, largely related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020, the early repayment of Rivermont I’s non-recourse funding obligations originally due in 2050, net purchases of fixed maturity securities and payments of $263 million to AXA in the current year. These decreases to cash were partially offset by proceeds received from debt offerings in GMHI and our Australia mortgage insurance business during the third quarter of 2020.
 
DAC decreased $213$240 million principally attributable to shadow accounting adjustments associated with a decrease in unrealized gains in the current year. The shadow accounting adjustments decreased DAC by approximately $174 million, mostly in our term universal life insurance product, with an offsetting amount recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The decrease was also attributable to higher amortization largely driven by an increase in lapses mostly attributable toin our large 20-year term life insurance block entering its post-level premium periodblocks and amortization outpacing deferrals reflecting the low sales in our long-term care insurance business in the current year.
Reinsurance recoverable decreased $315 million mainly attributable to the runoff of our structured settlement products ceded to Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company, an affiliate of our former parent, General Electric Company (“GE”). Webusiness. In connection with a DAC recoverability review, we also recorded $44wrote off $22 million of expected credit lossesDAC in our universal life insurance products in the current year associated with adopting the new accounting guidance.due principally to lower future estimated gross profits.
 
Deferred tax asset decreased $175increased $249 million largely due to a decrease in unrealized gains on derivatives and investments and from a deferred tax asset of $89 million recorded on the loss on sale of Genworth Australia, partially offset by the utilization of net operating losses and foreign tax credits and from higher unrealized gains on derivatives and investments, partially offset by a deferred tax asset recorded in connection with the AXA settlement agreement.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 typically exceed policy acquisition costs, benefits paid, redemptions and operating expenses. Our cash flows from operating activities are affected by the timing of premiums, fees and investment income received and benefits and expenses paid. Positive cash flows from operating activities are then invested to support the obligations of our insurance and investment products and required capital supporting these products. In analyzing our cash flow, we focus on the change in the amount of cash available and used in investing activities. Changes in cash from financing activities primarily relate to the issuance of, and redemptions and benefit payments on, universal life insurance and investment contracts; deposits from Federal Home Loan Banks; the issuance and acquisition of debt and equity securities; the issuance and repayment or repurchase of borrowings and
non-recourse
funding obligations; and other capital transactions.

We had lower cash outflows from financing activities in the current year principally from $739 millionlower repayment and repurchase of net proceeds from GMHI’s issuance of its 2025 Senior Notes, net proceeds of $28 million from the issuance of GFMIPL’s floating rate subordinated notes due in July 2030 and lowerlong-term debt, partially offset by higher net withdrawals from our investment contracts. These decreases were partially offset bycontracts in the current year. Genworth Holdings paid the $338 million principal balance of its 7.20% senior notes due in February 2021 and repurchased $146 million principal amount of its 7.625% senior notes due in September 2021, of which $14 million remained in transit as of March 31, 2021 resulting in a cash outlay of $132 million during the first quarter of 2021.

We engage in certain securities lending transactions for the purpose of enhancing the yield on our investment securities 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.
Genworth—holding company
Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings each act as a holding company for their respective subsidiaries and do not have any significant operations of their own. Dividends from their respective subsidiaries, payments to them under tax sharing and expense reimbursement arrangements with their subsidiaries and proceeds from borrowings or securities issuances are their principal sources of cash to meet their obligations. Insurance laws
163

and regulations regulate the payment of dividends and other distributions to Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings by their insurance subsidiaries. We expectDividends received from our insurance subsidiaries is highly dependent on the performance of our U.S. mortgage insurance business and their ability to pay dividends to us as anticipated. Given the performance of our U.S. life insurance businesses, dividends will not be paid by these businesses for the foreseeable future.
Our U.S. mortgage insurance business is currently operating under the PMIERs Amendment, which includes capital preservation requirements that restrict dividends through June 30, 2021. Thereafter, we will
118

evaluate the regulatory and macroeconomic environment, including the timing of forbearance resolutions and whether loans subject to forbearance cure or result in a claim, to assess future dividends. Future dividends are subject to capital requirements of our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries, will vary depending on strategic objectives, capital levels, regulatory requirementsneeds of our holding companies and business performance, including the expected adverse impacts from COVID-19.market conditions, among other factors, which are subject to change.
The primary uses of funds at Genworth Financial and Genworth Holdings include payment of holding company general operating expenses (including taxes), payment of principal, interest and other expenses on current and any future borrowings or other obligations (including payments to AXA under a secured promissory note related toreported as discontinued operations), payments under current and any future guarantees (including guarantees of certain subsidiary obligations), payment of amounts owed to GEGeneral Electric Company (“GE”) under the Tax Matters Agreement, payments to subsidiaries (and, in the case of Genworth Holdings, to Genworth Financial) under tax sharing agreements, contributions to subsidiaries, repurchases of debt securities and, in the case of Genworth Holdings, loans, dividends or other distributions to Genworth Financial. In deploying future capital, important current priorities include focusing on our U.S. mortgage insurance businessesbusiness so they remainit remains appropriately capitalized and accelerating progress on reducing overall indebtedness of Genworth Holdings. We may from time to time seek to repurchase or redeem outstanding notes for cash (with cash on hand, proceeds from the issuance of new debt and/or the proceeds from asset or stock sales) in open market purchases, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. We currently seek to address our indebtedness over time through repurchases, redemptions and/or repayments at maturity.
Our Board of Directors has suspended the payment of stockholder dividends on our Genworth Financial 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 debt obligations, our credit and financial strength ratings and such other factors as the Board of Directors deems relevant. In addition, our Board of Directors has suspended repurchases of our Genworth Financial common stock under our stock repurchase program indefinitely. The resumption of our stock repurchase program will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

The decrease in Genworth Holdings’ cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was principally driven by the repayment of long-term debtGenworth Holdings’ 7.20% senior notes due in February 2021 for $350 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance of $338 million and intercompanyaccrued interest of $12 million and the repurchase of $146 million principal amount of its 7.625% senior notes due in September 2021. In addition, on March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of Genworth Australia and paymentsreceived net proceeds of approximately AUD483 million ($370 million). The sale of Genworth Australia resulted in a mandatory payment of approximately £178 million ($247 million) related to our outstanding secured promissory note issued to AXA, including accrued interest of $263 million, partially offset by a dividend of $436 million received from our U.S. mortgage insurance business in the current year. On July 20, 2020, we reached a settlement agreement with AXA regarding a dispute over payment protection insurance mis-selling claims sold by our former lifestyle protection insurance business that was acquired by AXA in December 2015. In January 2020, we made an interim litigation payment of $134 million and on July 21, 2020 we paid an initial amount under the settlement agreement of £100 million ($125 million), along with accrued interest.$2 million. For additional details on the decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, see below under “—Capital resources and financing activities.”
During the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, Genworth Holdings received cash dividends of $370 million and $11 million, respectively, from its international subsidiaries of $11 million and $167 million, respectively. Our U.S. mortgage insurance business paid a $436 million dividendsubsidiaries. Dividends received in the third quarter of 2020 fromcurrent year included net proceeds received from GMHI’s issuancethe sale of Genworth Australia.
On March 1, 2021, Genworth Holdings entered into a guarantee agreement with Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC (“GFIH”) whereby Genworth Holdings agreed to contribute additional capital to GFIH related to certain of its 2025 Senior Notes. This dividend provides liquidityliabilities, or otherwise satisfy or discharge those liabilities. The liabilities include but are not limited to, address Genworth Holdings’ senior notes due in February 2021.

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 duration 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 quality short-term investment securities and other liquid investment grade fixed maturity securities to fund anticipated operating expenses, surrenders and withdrawals. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets were $79.3$72.9 billion. Our investments in privately placed fixed maturity securities, commercial mortgage loans, policy loans, limited partnership investments and select mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are relatively illiquid. These asset classes represented approximately 37%39% of the carrying value of our total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and invested assets as of September 30, 2020.March 31, 2021.
As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business was compliant with the PMIERs capital requirements. In February 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business executed an excess of loss reinsurance transaction with a panel of reinsurers which provides up to $210 million of reinsurance coverage on a portion of current and expected mortgage insurance policies written in 2021. On March 2, 2021, our U.S. mortgage insurance business obtained $495 million of fully collateralized excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re
2021-1
Ltd. on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from January 2014 through December 2018 and on policies written from October 2019 through December 2019. Credit risk transfer transactions provided an estimated aggregate of $777approximately $1,285 million of PMIERs capital credit as of March 31, 2021. On April 16, 2021, our U.S. Mortgage insurance business obtained approximately $303 million of fully collateralized excess of loss reinsurance coverage from Triangle Re
2021-2
Ltd. on a portfolio of existing mortgage insurance policies written from September 30,2020 through December 2020. Our U.S. mortgage insurance business may execute future credit risk transfer transactions to maintain a prudent level of financial flexibility in excess of the PMIERs capital requirements in response to potential changes in performance and PMIERs requirements over time. We believe that future credit risk transfer transactions may be more difficult to execute, if possible at all, and may have a higher cost during and following COVID-19.

As of March 31, 2021, Genworth Holdings has $697 million floating rate subordinatedof unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. Genworth Holdings received net cash proceeds of $370 million from the sale of Genworth Australia in March 2021, of which $247 million was used to prepay a portion of the AXA promissory note, including accrued interest. The remaining proceeds, along with Genworth Holdings’ unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, provide sufficient liquidity to meet our financial obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the date the financial statements are issued, including repayment of the 7.625% senior notes due in July 2030. These notes will pay interest quarterly at a floating rate equal toSeptember 2021, based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably estimable, including current cash and management actions in the three-month bank bill swap reference rate plus a margin of a minimum of 5.0% per annum.

Financing activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Genworth Holdings repurchased $84 million principal amount of its senior notesagreement with 2021 maturity dates for a pre-tax gain of $4 million.
In March 2020, Genworth Holdings repaid a $200 million intercompany note due to GLIC with a maturity date of March 31, 2020.
On January 21, 2020, Genworth Holdings early redeemed $397 million of its 7.70% senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020 for a pre-tax loss of $9 million. The senior notes were fully redeemed with a cash payment of $409 million, comprised of the outstanding principal balance of $397 million, accrued interest of $3 million and a make-whole premium of $9 million.
In January 2020, upon receipt of approval from the Director of Insurance of the State of South Carolina, Rivermont I, our indirect wholly-owned special purpose consolidated captive insurance subsidiary, redeemed all of its $315 million of outstanding non-recourse funding obligations due in 2050. The early redemption resulted in a pre-tax loss of $4 million from the write-off of deferred borrowing costs.
In addition to the initial settlement payment of £100 million ($125 million) paid to AXA, on July 21, 2020, we also issued a secured promissory note that was originally due in two installment payments in 2022. On March 3, 2021, as discussed above, we repaid the first installment payment to AXA that is due in 2022. Under the settlement, certain cash flows to Genworth Holdings, including dividends and capital raises, above defined thresholds must be paid to AXA until the promissory note is fully repaid. In addition, over the next year, we expect to pay AXA approximately $45 million consisting of interest on the promissory note, assuming we do not make any pre-payments, and a one-timeportion of the second installment payment on an unrelated liability associated with underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business.
Our evaluation of our ability to meet our obligations include the following contractual obligations due within one yearfrom cash proceeds received from the issue date of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, along with other certain conditions and events:
Genworth Holdings has $338 million of its 7.20% senior notes maturing in February 2021 and $659 million of its 7.625% senior notes maturing in September 2021, excluding deferred costs;
interest payments on our senior notes are forecasted to be $144 million for the next twelve months;
we do not expect to receive further dividends in 2020 from our mortgage insurance subsidiaries due to higher delinquencies and the impact to capital levels resulting from COVID-19;
beginning in 2021, until the secured promissory note to AXA is paid, dividends above $50 million from our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries are subject to mandatory prepayment conditions;
the receipt of dividends and sale proceeds above certain thresholds from our Australian mortgage insurance business are also subject to mandatory prepayment conditions; and
due to the uncertain macroeconomic conditions surrounding COVID-19, on September 30, 2020, Genworth and China Oceanwide agreed to a sixteenth waiver and agreement extending the merger
166

deadline to no later than November 30, 2020. However, the consummation of this transaction is dependent on steps outside of our control; accordingly, the associated post-closing capital contributions from China Oceanwide cannot be included as a potential source of liquidity.
Absent accessing additional liquidity through third party sources and/or the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, Genworth Holdings expects to have a cash shortfall of approximately $215 million which raises doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year. While conditions and events occurring and expected to occur raise doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year, we believe management’s plans alleviate this doubt.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we successfully executed a debt financing through our U.S. mortgage insurance business, a transaction we deemed probable in our previous assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern. Because of the uncertainty regarding the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, we are actively taking steps toward raising capital by preparing for a possible public offering of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions. In addition to a partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business through a public offering, we are also evaluating the possibility of the issuance of convertible, equity-linked securities or another transaction, prior to our senior notes maturing in September 2021. We believe an equity transaction involving our U.S. mortgage insurance business, if needed, is probable of being effectively executed given the value of the U.S. mortgage insurance business, the healthy conditions of the relevant markets, historical investor interest and our successful history of similar transactions, among other factors. Our outside financial advisors agree with our assessment based on current conditions.
In addition to management’s plans, we believe additional sources of cash coming from payments under tax sharing and expense reimbursement arrangements with subsidiaries, and if necessary, sales of assets, would provide us with sufficient capital flexibility and liquidity to meet our projected future operating and financing requirements for one year from the issue date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. For example, Genworth Holdings expects to receive intercompany tax payments generated from realized gains in the third quarter of 2020 and we expect to receive additional intercompany tax payments in future periods.Australia sale. Until the secured promissory note issued to AXA is fully repaid, certain prepayment obligations thereunder place significant constraints on our ability to repay debt (other than the September 2021 debt maturities)maturity) with the proceeds of new debt financing, equity offerings, asset sales or dividends from subsidiaries.
The remaining AXA promissory note, including expected future claims, is estimated to be $343 million and is due in September 2022. In addition, Genworth Holdings has $400 million of senior notes due in both August 2023 and February 2024. To help address these debt obligations beyond the next year and reduce our overall indebtedness, we are actively taking additional steps toward raising capital by preparing for a planned partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions, as well as the satisfaction of various conditions and approvals.
We actively monitor our liquidity position, liquidity generation options and the credit markets given changing market conditions. Our cash management target is to maintain a cash buffer of two times expected annual external debt interest payments. We may move below or above our targeted cash buffer during any given quarter due to the timing of cash outflows and inflows or from future actions. We continue to evaluate our target level of liquidity as circumstances warrant. Additionally, we will continue to evaluate market influences on the valuation of our senior debt and may consider additional opportunities to repurchase our debt over time. We cannot predict with certainty the impact to us from future disruptions in the credit markets or the recent or any further future 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 debt. The availability of additional funding, including an equity transaction through a partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business or the issuance of debt, convertible or equity-linked securities, will depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, regulatory considerations, the general availability of credit, credit ratings and the performance of and outlook for our U.S. mortgage insurance business.business and the payment of dividends therefrom. For a discussion of certain risks associated with our liquidity, see “Item 1A—Risk Factors—Our internal sources of liquidity may be insufficient to meet our needs and our access to capital may be limited or unavailable. Under such conditions, we may seek additional capital but may be unable to obtain it” and “Litigation and regulatory investigations or other actions are common in the insurance business and may result in financial losses and harm our reputation” in our 20192020 Annual Report on Form

We have experienced a significant increase in loss reserves in our U.S. mortgage insurance business during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 driven mostly by higher new delinquencies from borrower forbearance due to COVID-19. We expect a large portion of these delinquencies to cure before becoming an active claim; however, reserves recorded related to borrower forbearance have a high degree of estimation. Therefore, it is possible we could have higher contractual obligations related to these loss reserves if they do not cure as we expect. In addition,Except as disclosed above, we have contractual amounts due to AXA related to the promissory note issued under the settlement agreement (recorded as discontinued operations) and amounts due under GMHI and GFMIPL’s senior notes and floating rate subordinated notes, respectively. Therethere have been no other material additions or changes to our contractual obligations as compared to the amounts disclosed within our 20192020 Annual Report on Form
10-K
filed on February 27, 2020.26, 2021. For additional details related to our commitments, see note 1211 in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements under “Item 1—Financial Statements.”

Supplemental Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
Genworth Financial provides a full and unconditional guarantee to the trustee of Genworth Holdings’ outstanding senior and subordinated notes and the holders of the senior and subordinated notes, on an unsecured unsubordinated and subordinated basis, respectively, of the full and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each outstanding series of senior notes and outstanding subordinated notes, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by Genworth Holdings under the senior and subordinated notes indentures in respect of such senior and subordinated notes. Genworth Holdings is a direct, 100% owned subsidiary of Genworth Financial.
The following supplemental condensed consolidating financial information of Genworth Financial and its direct and indirect subsidiaries has been prepared pursuant to rules regarding the preparation of consolidating financial information of
Regulation S-X,
as amended by the SEC on March 2, 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, we early applied new rules issued by the SEC by removing comparative prior year condensed consolidating financial information herein and presenting the supplemental condensed consolidating financial information outside the footnotes of our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We continue to provide prior year annual period condensed consolidating financial information in accordance with the new amended rules.
The supplemental condensed consolidating financial information presents the condensed consolidating balance sheet information as of September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, the condensed consolidating income statement information, the condensed consolidating comprehensive income statement information and the condensed consolidating cash flow statement information for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
The supplemental condensed consolidating financial information reflects Genworth Financial (“Parent Guarantor”), Genworth Holdings (“Issuer”) and each of Genworth Financial’s other direct and indirect subsidiaries (the “All Other Subsidiaries”) on a combined basis, none of which guarantee the senior notes or subordinated notes, as well as the eliminations necessary to present Genworth Financial’s financial information on a consolidated basis and total consolidated amounts.
The accompanying supplemental condensed consolidating financial information is presented based on the equity method of accounting for all periods presented. Under this method, investments in subsidiaries are recorded at cost and adjusted for the subsidiaries’ cumulative results of operations, capital contributions and distributions, and other changes in equity. Elimination entries include consolidating and eliminating entries for investments in subsidiaries and intercompany activity.

Our insurance company subsidiaries are restricted by state and foreign laws and regulations as to the amount of dividends they may pay to their parent without regulatory approval in any year, the purpose of which is to protect affected insurance policyholders and contractholders, not stockholders. Any dividends in excess of limits are deemed “extraordinary” and require approval. Based on statutory results as of December 31, 2019,2020, in accordance with applicable dividend restrictions, our subsidiaries could pay dividends of approximately $300$190 million to us in 2020,2021, and the remaining net assets are considered restricted. While the $300$190 million is considered unrestricted, our insurance subsidiaries will not pay dividends to us in 20202021 at this level as they need to preserve capital for regulatory purposes, including as the result of
COVID-19,
and retain capital for future growth or to meet regulatory requirements and preserve desired capital thresholds.requirements. As of September 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, Genworth Financial’s and Genworth Holdings’ subsidiaries had restricted net assets of $14.4$14.6 billion and $15.7$15.5 billion, respectively.
In September 2020, the GSEs imposed certain GSE Restrictions were imposedrestrictions with respect to capital on our U.S. mortgage insurance business. These restrictions will remain in effect until the later of six quarters or until the following collective GSE Conditions are met: a) approval of GMICO’s plan to secure additional capital, if needed, b) GMICO obtains “BBB+”/“Baa1” (or higher) rating from S&P, Moody’s or Fitch for two consecutive quarters and c) certain Genworth financial metrics are achieved. Prior to the satisfaction of these conditions, the GSE Restrictions require:
GMICO to maintain 115% of PMIERs minimum required assets through 2021, 120% during 2022 and 125% thereafter;
GMHI to retain $300 million of its holding company cash that can be drawn down exclusively for its debt service or to contribute to GMICO to meet its regulatory capital needs including PMIERs; and
written approval must be received from the GSEs prior to any additional debt issuance by either GMICO or GMHI.
The GSE Restrictions govern the period prior to the close of the planned China Oceanwide transaction. The GSEs issued separate conditions and restrictions in September 2020, which place identical restrictions on our U.S. mortgage insurance business, if the China Oceanwide transaction closes. See “Item 2—U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment—trendsTrends and conditions” for additional details.

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. Except as disclosed below and in our executive summary under “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—COVID-19 Summary,” thereThere were no other material changes in our market risks since December 31, 2019.2020. 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, including changes in interest rates.

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar resulting from our international operations and non-U.S.-denominated securities. Our primary international operations are located in Australia, although we are also exposed to the British Pound due to the settlement agreement reached with AXA. However, foreign currency exchange related to AXA is not part of continuing operations. The assets and liabilities of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average rates of exchange during the period of the transaction. In general, the weakening of the U.S. dollar results in higher levels of reported assets, liabilities, revenues and net income (loss). As of September 30, 2020, the U.S. dollar weakened against the Australian dollar compared to the respective balance sheet rate as of December 31, 2019. In the third quarter of 2020, the U.S. dollar weakened against the Australian dollar compared to the respective average rate in the third quarter of 2019. See “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion on the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Item 1A. Risk Factors
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 20192020 Annual Report on Form
10-K,
which together 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. Except as disclosed below, thereThere have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the above-referenced filing as of September 30, 2020.
COVID-19 could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
COVID-19 has brought unprecedented changes to the global economy. Large scale disruption in the U.S. economy is leaving several industries non-operational through state and federal mandated shutdowns in an effort to contain the spread of COVID-19. Unemployment claims have increased significantly, reducing consumer confidence to its lowest level since the 2008 financial crisis. The level of uncertainty created by COVID-19 is far-reaching and difficult to estimate. We are unsure of the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on our business, and conditions, including economic and operational, are evolving rapidly. COVID-19 exposes our business to

significant risks, including interest rate declines, significantly higher levels of unemployment, liquidity pressures, credit risk on our investment portfolio, equity market volatility, and operational, information technology and personnel risks. We could experience significant declines in asset valuations and potential material asset impairments, as well as unexpected changes in persistency rates, as policyholders and contractholders who are affected by the pandemic may not be able to meet their contractual obligations, such as premium payments on their insurance policies, deposits to their investment products, or mortgage payments on their loans insured by our mortgage insurance policies. The pandemic has decreased historically low interest rates further and could also significantly increase our mortality and morbidity experience and/or impact our ability to successfully implement in-force rate actions (including increased premiums and associated benefit reductions), all of which could result in higher reserve charges and an adverse impact to our financial results in our U.S. life insurance businesses. Regarding our mortgage insurance businesses, COVID-19 has resulted in significantly higher levels of unemployment, which has and may continue to increase delinquencies, and could reduce mortgage originations, the need for mortgage insurance and have an adverse effect on home prices, all of which would result in a significant adverse impact to our financial condition and results of operations in our mortgage insurance businesses. Losses in our mortgage insurance businesses could lead to lower credit ratings and impaired capital, which could hinder our mortgage insurance businesses from offering their products, preclude them from returning capital to our holding company for prolonged periods of time, and thereby harm our liquidity. COVID-19 could also disrupt medical and financial services and has resulted in us practicing social distancing with our employees through office closures, all of which could disrupt our normal business operations. The level of disruption, the economic downturn, the global recession, and the far-reaching effects of COVID-19 could negatively affect our investment portfolio and cause the harms to our business to persist for long periods of time. As a result of the foregoing, any of the risks identified above or other related COVID-19 risks may have a material adverse impact on us, including a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
