We are pleased to demonstrate continued positive momentum in the second quarter, with core EPS and new business value growth of 9% and 23%, respectively. As part of our transformation toward a higher return and lower risk business, we are proud to have closed the largest UL reinsurance transaction in Canada9 and the acquisition of CQS. Momentum also continued in our growth engines, with Asia delivering strong growth in core earnings, new business CSM and new business value margin6 year-over-year, and Global WAM delivering positive net flows and an improved core EBITDA margin3. We continue to demonstrate that we have a strong track record of execution, and I am confident about the future and our ability to execute against our strategy and deliver value to our shareholders.”

Strategic Highlights
We are expanding our customer reach through strategic partnerships and new product offerings
In Global WAM, we completed the acquisition of CQS, the U.K.-based multi-sector alternative credit manager, which we have co-branded as Manulife | CQS Investment Management and have leveraged these expanded capabilities to launch the John Hancock Multi Asset Credit Fund in U.S. Retail. This fund is a strong addition to our growing lineup of liquid and semi-liquid alternative offerings and our larger credit franchise.
In the U.S., we announced a strategic partnership with Annexus – one of the nation’s leading independent product design and distribution companies – to expand our portfolio of indexed account offerings and reach a wider market with our Protection Indexed Universal Life solution.
We are deploying Generative AI and delivering on our Digital, Customer Leader strategic priority
In Asia, we enhanced agent-customer interactions through the launch of an innovative Generative AI agent sales tool in Singapore that enables our agents to automatically create personalized engagement strategies to offer customers the right solutions at the right time based on their needs, preferences, demographic data, and transaction histories.
In Global WAM, we piloted our Manulife Mandatory Provident Fund (“MPF”) Robo-Advisor in Hong Kong Retirement, a new portal that aims to provide automated portfolio insights and personalized investment tips to our MPF members. This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing customer experiences in MPF investment management through digital innovation and strengthening member education.
In Canada, we enhanced our Manulife mobile app for group benefits members by adding mental health features and live support. These services were added in alliance with TELUS Health1 and provide eligible members and their families immediate, personal assistance in navigating the healthcare system to help them understand the types of support available.
In the U.S., we deployed a Generative AI knowledge management chatbot and automated call summarization for our customer service representatives within our Annuities contact center, contributing to an immediate improvement to average handle time. This initiative is part of our continuing efforts to enhance customer experience and streamline processes.
We are helping our customers live longer, healthier, and better lives
In the U.S., we advanced our commitment to provide preventative health screenings to customers and further differentiated our solutions by becoming the first U.S. life insurer to offer discounted and prioritized access to Prenuvo – a whole body MRI scan for the early detection of cancer and other diseases – to eligible John Hancock Vitality members.
In Canada, we released our 2023 Wellness Report which highlighted health trends and challenges that affected Canadian employees of our group benefits plan sponsors. This report supports our plan sponsors with valuable, data-driven insights so they can ensure their plan designs are targeting areas of highest concern to help drive better health outcomes for plan members.
Strong earnings results reflect continued business growth, more than offsetting the impact of GMT and reinsurance transactions2
Core earnings of $1.7 billion in 2Q24, up 6% from 2Q23
Our positive momentum continued in 2Q24 with a 6% increase year-over-year, as strong business growth more than offset the impact of GMT.
• | Asia core earnings were up 40%, benefitting from continued business growth momentum and updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023. |

Manulife Financial Corporation – Second Quarter 2024 | 3 |
Table of Contents
• | Global WAM core earnings grew 23%, driven by higher fee income from favourable market impacts and positive net flows, and a favourable tax true-up. |
• | In Canada, strong growth in Group Insurance and favourable net insurance experience contributed to a 7% growth in 2Q24 core earnings. |
• | In the U.S., adverse net insurance experience and foregone core earnings from the long-term care reinsurance transaction announced in December 2023 resulted in an 11% decrease in 2Q24 core earnings. |
• | In Corporate and Other, core earnings decreased $138 million, reflecting the impact of GMT, higher interest on allocated capital to operating segments and higher workforce-related expenses. |
Net Income attributed to shareholders of $1.0 billion in 2Q24, consistent with 2Q23
Net income was in-line compared with 2Q23, as improved market experience and core earnings growth were offset by a $0.3 billion realized loss due to the sale of debt instruments related to the RGA reinsurance transaction. This realized loss was broadly offset by an associated change in other comprehensive income, resulting in a neutral impact to book value. This, along with lower-than-expected returns on alternative long-duration assets mainly related to private equity and real estate investments, contributed to a net charge in market experience in 2Q24.
Continued momentum in new insurance business results and positive net flows in Global WAM
We delivered another quarter of strong new business growth in our insurance businesses with APE sales and NBV hitting record levels in 2Q24, demonstrating the strength and benefits of our diversified portfolio. Overall, our APE sales, new business CSM and NBV increased year-over-year by 17%, 6% and 23%, respectively.
• | Asia continued to generate positive momentum and grew APE sales, new business CSM and NBV by 7%, 10% and 19%, respectively, reflecting higher sales volumes in Japan and Hong Kong in 2Q24. The year-over-year improvement of 3.4 percentage points in NBV margin reflected our pricing discipline and changes in business mix. |
• | Canada delivered excellent growth and record level NBV this quarter. Compared with 2Q23, APE sales and NBV increased 61% and 50%, respectively, driven by higher sales volumes in all business units, led by a large-case Group Insurance sale. New business CSM was up 33% driven by margin expansion in Individual Insurance and higher sales volumes in segregated fund products. |
• | In the U.S., APE sales decreased 4% year-over-year with a shift in product mix, while NBV was up 3%. New business CSM decreased 30% due to change in product mix and the impact of higher interest rates. |
Global WAM net inflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q24, mainly reflecting the strength in our Institutional business, offset by outflows in our Retirement business. Compared with 2Q23, net inflows was $2.1 billion lower.
• | Retirement net outflows of $1.3 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $0.7 billion in 2Q23, as higher member contributions were more than offset by increased member withdrawals and a large-case retirement plan redemption in the U.S. |
• | Retail net outflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q24 were in line with 2Q23, as increased demand for investment products amid equity market recovery and improved investor sentiment was offset by higher redemptions. |
• | Institutional Asset Management net inflows of $1.4 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $1.6 billion in 2Q23 as net inflows from CQS were more than offset by higher redemptions in fixed income mandates and lower sales in alternative mandates. |

Organic Contractual Service Margin (“CSM”) growth contributing to higher CSM balance
CSM1 was $20,758 million as at June 30, 2024
CSM increased $318 million compared with December 31, 2023. Organic CSM movement contributed $453 million of the increase in the first half of 2024, primarily driven by the impact of new business and interest accretion, partially offset by amortization recognized in core earnings and adverse insurance experience. Inorganic CSM movement was a decrease of $135 million for the same period, primarily driven by the impact of reinsurance transactions, partially offset by favourable impacts of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and equity market performance. Post-tax CSM net of NCI2 was $18,290 million as at June 30, 2024.

Quarterly profitability
Manulife’s net income attributed to shareholders was $1,042 million in the second quarter of 2024 (“2Q24”) compared with $1,025 million in the second quarter of 2023 (“2Q23”). Net income attributed to shareholders is comprised of core earnings (consisting of items we believe reflect the underlying earnings capacity of the business), which amounted to $1,737 million in 2Q24 compared with $1,637 million in 2Q23, and items excluded from core earnings, which amounted to a net charge of $695 million in 2Q24 compared with a net charge of $612 million in 2Q23. The effective tax rate on net income (loss) attributed to shareholders was 19% in 2Q24 compared with 19% in 2Q23.
Net income attributed to shareholders in 2Q24 increased $17 million compared with 2Q23, as the impact of improved market experience and core earnings was largely offset by a net loss of $239 million from the reinsurance transaction with RGA Canada1 (“RGA Reinsurance Transaction”), primarily related to the sale of fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) debt instruments (there is an offsetting change in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) attributed to shareholders resulting in a neutral impact to book value), and a charge related to the adoption of Global Minimum Tax Act in 2Q24. Market experience was a net charge of $665 million in 2Q24 primarily reflecting lower-than-expected returns on alternative long duration assets (“ALDA”) largely related to private equity and real estate investments and the net loss from above-noted RGA Reinsurance Transaction, partially offset by a gain from derivatives and hedge accounting ineffectiveness.
Core earnings increased $100 million or 6% on a constant exchange rate basis2 compared with 2Q23. The increase in core earnings compared with 2Q23 was driven by higher core earnings in Global Wealth and Asset Management (“Global WAM”) reflecting an increase in net fee income from higher average assets under management and administration3 (“average AUMA”) and positive net flows3, along with disciplined expense management, growth in our insurance business, the impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023, and a tax true-up in Global WAM. This was partially offset by a charge of $46 million related to the adoption of the Global Minimum Tax Act, which was enacted in Canada in 2Q24, and higher workforce-related costs. In addition, core earnings reflected improved net insurance experience in Canada and Asia, partially offset by adverse net experience in the U.S. The reinsurance transaction with Global Atlantic (“GA Reinsurance Transaction”) also led to an unfavourable core earnings variance of $25 million, attributable to the

2 | Percentage growth / declines in core earnings, pre-tax core earnings, core expenses, general expenses, contractual service margin (“CSM”) net of non-controlling interests (“NCI”), new business contractual service margin (“new business CSM”), assets under management and administration (“AUMA”), assets under management (“AUM”), core earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“core EBITDA”), and Manulife Bank average net lending assets are stated on a constant exchange rate basis, a non-GAAP ratio.

impact on expected earnings on insurance contracts, expected investment earnings and insurance experience. The RGA Reinsurance Transaction led to a favourable core earnings variance of $1 million.
Year-to-date profitability
Net income attributed to shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1,908 million compared with $2,431 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Year-to-date core earnings amounted to $3,491 million in 2024 compared with $3,168 million in the same period of 2023, and items excluded from year-to-date core earnings amounted to a net charge of $1,583 million in 2024 compared with a net charge of $737 million in the same period of 2023. The effective tax rate on year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders was 20% in 2024 compared with 18% for the same period in 2023.
Year-to-date net income attributed to shareholders in 2024 decreased $523 million compared with 2023 as the impact of a net loss of $1,002 million from the GA and RGA Reinsurance Transactions, primarily related to market experience from the sale of FVOCI debt instruments (there is an offsetting change in OCI attributed to shareholders resulting in a neutral impact to book value) and a charge related to the adoption of the Global Minimum Tax Act in 2Q24, was partially offset by improved core earnings and other market experience. Market experience was a net charge of $1,444 million in 2024 primarily reflecting the net loss from above-noted GA and RGA Reinsurance Transactions, lower-than-expected returns on ALDA largely related to real estate and private equity investments, partially offset by higher-than-expected returns on public equities and a gain from derivatives and hedge accounting ineffectiveness.
Year-to-date core earnings in 2024 increased $323 million or 11% compared with the same period of 2023. The increase in core earnings compared with 2023 was driven by higher core earnings in Global WAM reflecting an increase in net fee income from higher average AUMA and positive net flows, along with disciplined expense management, strong growth in our insurance business, the impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023, and a tax true-up in Global WAM. The provision for expected credit loss (“ECL”) was a modest net release in 2024 compared with a net charge in 2023. This was partially offset by a charge of $46 million related to the adoption of the Global Minimum Tax Act, which was enacted in Canada in 2Q24, and higher workforce-related costs primarily reflecting strong TSR1 performance relative to peers and business performance. In addition, year-to-date core earnings reflected improved net insurance experience in Canada and Asia, partially offset by adverse net experience in the U.S. The GA Reinsurance Transaction also led to an unfavourable year-to-date core earnings variance of $43 million, attributable to the impact on expected earnings on insurance contracts, expected investment earnings, the change in ECL, and insurance experience. The RGA Reinsurance Transaction also led to a favourable year-to-date core earnings variance of $1 million.

(1) | Market experience was a net charge of $665 million in 2Q24, primarily driven by lower-than-expected returns on ALDA mainly related to private equity and real estate investments, net realized losses from the sale of debt instruments which are classified as FVOCI, of which $273 million was related to the transfer of assets with respect to the RGA Reinsurance Transaction, and losses from unfavourable foreign exchange impacts. These were partially offset by a gain from derivatives and hedge accounting ineffectiveness and a modest gain from higher-than-expected returns on public equity. Market experience was a net charge of $570 million in 2Q23 primarily driven by lower-than-expected returns on ALDA mainly related to real estate and energy investments, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, net realized losses from the sale of debt instruments which are classified as FVOCI and a modest net charge from derivatives and hedge accounting ineffectiveness. These were partially offset by higher-than-expected returns on public equity. |
(2) | The 2Q24 net charge of $30 million mainly included a charge of $43 million related to the acquisition of CQS, a charge of $42 million related to Global Minimum Taxes (“GMT”) (an additional $46 million charge was recorded in core earnings), which was enacted in Canada in the second quarter and a charge of $25 million related to a reinsurance recapture in Asia. This was partially offset by a gain of $34 million related to the RGA Reinsurance transaction in Canada and other tax related true-ups of $44 million. The 2Q23 net charge of $42 million mainly included a provision for the cancellation of certain policies in our Vietnam operation of $46 million. |

Expense efficiency ratio
The expense efficiency ratio is a financial measure which we use to measure progress on our strategic priority of expense efficiency and reflects expenses that flow directly through core earnings (“core expenses”). Core expenses include core general expenses, directly attributable maintenance expenses and directly attributable acquisition expenses for products measured using the premium allocation approach (“PAA”). Core expenses exclude certain expenses directly attributable to acquiring new business that are capitalized into the CSM instead of flowing directly through core earnings.
Our focus on expense efficiency has enabled us to drive the benefits of scale across our businesses. We believe there are further opportunities to leverage our global scale and operating environment, streamline processes and further digitize our business. As a result, we recently updated our medium-term target for the expense efficiency ratio from less than 50% to less than 45%.

Table of Contents
Quarterly expense efficiency ratio
The expense efficiency ratio was 45.4% in 2Q24, compared with 45.1% in 2Q23. The 0.3 percentage point increase in the ratio compared with 2Q23 reflects a 6% increase in pre-tax core earnings1, and a 7% increase in core expenses. The increase in core expenses was driven by higher workforce-related costs, including long-term incentive compensation and higher performance-related costs from strong business performance and the inclusion of ongoing operating expenses related to our acquisition of the CQS business.
Total 2Q24 general expenses increased 20% on an actual exchange rate basis and 19% on a constant exchange rate basis compared with 2Q23, driven by the items noted above related to the increase in core expenses and items outside of core earnings. General expenses excluded from core earnings in 2Q24 were mainly related to the acquisition of CQS, and in 2Q23, consisted primarily of a true-up of an existing legal provision in 2Q23.
Year-to-date expense efficiency ratio
The year-to-date expense efficiency ratio was 45.3% in 2024, compared with 46.1% in the same period of 2023. The 0.8 percentage point improvement in the year-to-date ratio compared with the same period of 2023 reflects a 10% increase in year-to-date pre-tax core earnings, and a 6% increase in year-to-date core expenses. The increase in year-to-date core expenses was driven by higher workforce-related costs, including long-term incentive compensation, reflecting strong TSR performance relative to peers, and performance-related costs reflecting strong business performance and the inclusion of ongoing operating expenses related to our acquisition of the CQS business.
Total year-to-date general expenses in 2024 increased 10% on an actual and constant exchange rate basis compared with the same period of 2023 driven by the items noted above related to the increase in year-to-date core expenses and items outside of year-to-date core earnings. Year-to-date general expenses excluded from core earnings were mainly related to the acquisition of CQS in 2024, and in 2023, consisted primarily of a true-up of an existing legal provision.

Annualized premium equivalent (“APE”) sales were $1,907 billion in 2Q24, an increase of 17%1 compared with 2Q23, new business value (“NBV”) was $723 million in 2Q24, an increase of 23%1 compared with 2Q23 and new business CSM was $628 million, an increase of 6% compared with 2Q23. Our APE sales and NBV hit record levels in 2Q24, demonstrating the strength and benefits of our diversified portfolio. New business results by segment were as follows:
• | Asia continued to generate positive momentum and grew APE sales, new business CSM and NBV by 7%, 10% and 19%, respectively, reflecting higher sales volumes in Japan and Hong Kong in 2Q24. The year-over-year improvement of 3.4 percentage points in new business value margin2 (“NBV margin”) reflected our pricing discipline and changes in business mix. |
• | Canada delivered excellent growth and record level NBV this quarter. Compared with 2Q23, APE sales and NBV increased 61% and 50%, respectively, driven by higher sales volumes in all business units, led by a large-case Group Insurance sale. New business CSM was up 33% driven by margin expansion in Individual Insurance and higher sales volumes in segregated fund products. |
• | In the U.S., APE sales decreased 4% year-over-year with a shift in product mix, while NBV was up 3%. New business CSM decreased 30% due to change in product mix and the impact of higher interest rates. |

Year-to-date APE sales were $3,790 billion in 2024, an increase of 19% compared with the same period of 2023, year-to-date NBV was $1,392 million in 2024, an increase of 28% compared with the same period of 2023 and year-to-date new business CSM was $1,286 million, an increase of 25% compared with the same period of 2023. New business results by segment were as follows:
• | Asia year-to-date APE sales increased 10% compared with 2023, driven by growth in Asia Other1, Japan and Hong Kong. Business mix and the impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023 further contributed to a 34% increase in year-to-date new business CSM compared with 2023. Year-to-date NBV also increased 23% compared with 2023 due to higher sales volumes and business mix. |
• | Canada generated 58% growth in year-to-date APE sales compared with 2023, driven by higher sales volumes in all business units, primarily due to higher Group Insurance sales, led by large-case sales, and higher segregated fund sales. Combined with margin expansion in our Individual Insurance business, year-to-date NBV increased 60% compared with 2023. New business CSM increased 42% compared with 2023 driven by margin expansion in Individual Insurance and higher sales volumes in segregated fund and Individual Insurance products. |
• | In the U.S., year-to-date APE sales increased 5% compared with 2023, reflecting an increase in demand from affluent customers for accumulation insurance products. Combined with product mix, this led to a 5% increase in year-to-date NBV, compared with 2023. Year-to-date new business CSM decreased 14% compared with 2023, primarily driven by product mix and the impact of higher interest rates. |
CSM net of NCI was $20,758 million as at June 30, 2024, an increase of $318 million compared with December 31, 2023. Organic CSM movement was $453 million in the first half of 2024, primarily driven by the impact of new business and interest accretion, partially offset by amortization recognized in core earnings and adverse insurance experience. Inorganic CSM movement was $(135) million in the first half of 2024, primarily driven by the impact of reinsurance transactions, partially offset by favourable impacts of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and equity market performance.
Global WAM net inflows were $0.1 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $2.2 billion in 2Q23. By business line, the results were:
• | Retirement net outflows were $1.3 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $0.7 billion in 2Q23, as higher member contributions were more than offset by higher member withdrawals and a large-case retirement plan redemption in the U.S. |
• | Retail net outflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q24 were in line with net outflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q23, as increased demand for investment products amid an equity market recovery and improved investor sentiment, was offset by higher redemptions. |
• | Institutional Asset Management net inflows were $1.4 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $1.6 billion in 2Q23, as net inflows from CQS were more than offset by higher redemptions in fixed income mandates and lower sales in alternative mandates. |
Year-to-date net inflows were $6.8 billion in 2024, compared with $6.6 billion in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher retail net inflows from increased demand for investment products. Retirement net inflows were in line with the prior year as growth in plan sales and member contributions offset higher member withdrawals. Institutional net inflows decreased despite net inflows from CQS due to higher fixed income redemptions.

For more information on this metric, see “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below. |
The Life Insurance Capital Adequacy Test (“LICAT”) ratio for The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company (“MLI”) as at June 30, 2024 was 139% compared with 138% as at March 31, 2024. The one percentage point increase is mainly driven by a release of capital from the two recent large reinsurance transactions, partially offset by common share buybacks.
MFC’s LICAT ratio was 127% as at June 30, 2024 compared with 126% as at March 31, 2024 with the increase driven by similar factors that impacted the movement in MLI’s LICAT ratio. The difference between the MLI and MFC ratios as at June 30, 2024 was largely due to the $6.3 billion of MFC senior debt outstanding that does not qualify as available capital at the MFC level but, based on the form it was down-streamed, qualifies as regulatory capital for MLI.
MFC’s financial leverage ratio as at June 30, 2024 was 24.6%, an increase of 0.3 percentage points from 24.3% as at March 31, 2024. The increase in the ratio was driven by the issuance of capital instruments1 in 2Q24 partially offset by an increase in total equity. The increase in total equity was mainly from 2Q24 total comprehensive income, partially offset by dividends and common share buybacks.
MFC’s consolidated capital was $77.6 billion as at June 30, 2024, an increase of $3.7 billion compared with $73.9 billion as at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in total equity, a net issuance of capital instruments1, and higher post-tax CSM2. The increase in total equity was from year-to-date total comprehensive income, partially offset by dividends and common share buybacks.
Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities3 was $240.2 billion as at June 30, 2024 compared with $250.7 billion as at December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by the impact of reinsurance transactions with GA and RGA, and lower market value of debt instruments due to higher interest rates, partially offset by favourable changes in foreign exchange rates and equity markets.
Book value per common share as at June 30, 2024 was $23.71, a 6% increase compared with $22.36 as at December 31, 2023. The number of common shares outstanding was 1,785 million as at June 30, 2024, a net decrease of 21 million common shares from 1,806 million as at December 31, 2023, primarily driven by common share buybacks. We’ve purchased for cancellation 25 million common shares as of June 30, 2024, and plan to purchase the maximum 90 million common shares approved for purchase under our current amended normal course issuer bid.
1 The net issuance of capital instruments consists of the issuance of subordinated debt of $1.1 billion in the first quarter of 2024 (“1Q24”) and $0.5 billion in 2Q24 and the redemption of $0.6 billion of JHUSA Surplus Notes in the 1Q24. 2 This item is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below for more information. 3 Includes cash & cash equivalents, comprised of cash on deposit, Canadian and U.S. Treasury Bills and high quality short-term investments, and marketable assets, comprised of investment grade government and agency bonds, investment grade corporate bonds, investment grade securitized instruments, publicly traded common stocks and preferred shares. |

Adjusted book value per common share as at June 30, 2024 was $33.96, a 5% increase compared with $32.19 as at December 31, 2023 driven by an increase in adjusted book value1 and a lower number of common shares outstanding. Adjusted book value increased $2.5 billion due to growth in total common shareholders’ equity and an increase in post-tax CSM, net of NCI. The increase in common shareholders’ equity reflects the impact of growth in total comprehensive income, partially offset by dividends and common share buybacks.
A4 | Assets under management and administration (“AUMA”) |
AUMA as at June 30, 2024 was $1.5 trillion, an increase of 4% compared with December 31, 2023, primarily due to the favourable impact of equity markets and net inflows. Total invested assets decreased 2% on an actual exchange rate basis, primarily due to the transfer of invested assets related to the GA and RGA Reinsurance Transactions. Segregated funds net assets increased 8% on an actual exchange rate basis, primarily due to the impact of equity markets.
A5 | Impact of foreign currency exchange rates |
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates from 2Q23 to 2Q24 increased core earnings by $2 million in 2Q24, primarily due to a weaker Canadian dollar compared with the U.S. dollar. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates decreased year-to-date core earnings by $24 million in 2024 compared with the same period of 2023 primarily due to a stronger Canadian dollar compared with the Japanese yen. The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on items excluded from core earnings does not provide relevant information given the nature of those items.

Asia’s net income attributed to shareholders was $582 million in 2Q24 compared with $130 million in 2Q23. Net income attributed to shareholders is comprised of core earnings, which were $647 million in 2Q24 compared with $473 million in 2Q23, and items excluded from core earnings, which amounted to a net charge of $65 million in 2Q24 compared with a net charge of $343 million in 2Q23. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of quarterly core earnings to net income (loss) attributed to shareholders and section A1 “Profitability” above, for explanations of the items excluded from core earnings. The changes in core earnings expressed in Canadian dollars were due to the factors described below and, additionally, reflected a net $11 million unfavourable impact due to changes in various foreign currency exchange rates versus the Canadian dollar.
Expressed in U.S. dollars, the presentation currency of the segment, net income attributed to shareholders was US$424 million in 2Q24 compared with US$96 million in 2Q23. Core earnings were US$472 million in 2Q24 compared with US$353 million in 2Q23, and items excluded from core earnings were a net charge of US$48 million in 2Q24 compared with a net charge of US$257 million in 2Q23.
Core earnings in 2Q24 increased 40% compared with 2Q23, driven by an increase in expected earnings on insurance contracts, favourable claims experience, and higher expected investment income. The increase in expected earnings on insurance contracts was driven primarily by the net impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions on our CSM and risk adjustment in the second half of 2023, and business growth. Investment income on allocated capital also increased core earnings by US$19 million in 2Q24 compared with 2Q23 (see Corporate and Other segment). In addition, the GA Reinsurance Transaction also led to a favourable core earnings variance of $1 million, attributable to the impact on expected investment earnings and expected earnings on insurance contracts.

Year-to-date net income attributed to shareholders was US$694 million in 2024 compared with US$480 million in the same period of 2023. Year-to-date core earnings were US$960 million in 2024, an increase of 40% compared with US$714 million in 2023, driven by similar factors as noted above. Year-to-date investment income on allocated capital also increased core earnings by US$38 million in 2024 compared with 2023 (see Corporate and Other segment). In addition, the GA Reinsurance Transaction also led to a favourable year-to-date core earnings variance of $7 million, attributable to the impact on expected investment earnings, expected earnings on insurance contracts and the change in ECL. Items excluded from year-to-date core earnings were a net charge of US$266 million in 2024 compared with a net charge of US$234 million for the same period of 2023. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of year-to-date core earnings to year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders.

APE sales were US$920 million in 2Q24, an increase of 7% compared with 2Q23, driven by growth in Japan and Hong Kong, partially offset by lower sales in Asia Other. NBV was US$370 million in 2Q24, an increase of 19% compared with 2Q23, driven by higher sales volumes and business mix. NBV margin was 43.7% in 2Q24 compared with 40.3% in 2Q23. New business CSM was US$349 million in 2Q24, an increase of 10% compared with 2Q23, due to higher sales volumes, business mix and the impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023, partially offset by the model refinements in 2Q23. Year-to-date APE sales were US$1,870 million in 2024, an increase of 10% compared with the same period of 2023, driven by higher bancassurance sales in Asia Other, higher sales in the agency channel of Japan and Hong Kong, partially offset by lower sales in the broker channel of Hong Kong.

Year-to-date new business CSM was US$713 million in 2024, an increase of 34% compared with 2023, due to higher sales volumes, business mix and the impact of updates to actuarial methods and assumptions in the second half of 2023.
• | Hong Kong APE sales were US$308 million in 2Q24, an increase of 15% compared with 2Q23 reflecting higher sales in the agency and bancassurance channels, partially offset by lower sales in the broker channel. Lower sales in the broker channel reflected fierce competition for mainland Chinese visitor customers and a surge in sales in 2Q23, following the reopening of the border between Hong Kong and mainland China. Hong Kong NBV was US$172 million in 2Q24, an increase of 23% compared with 2Q23 due to higher sales volumes and a modelling update to reflect the adoption of the Risk-based Capital regime, partially offset by product mix.

Organic CSM movement was US$284 million in the first half of 2024, driven by the impact of new business and interest accretion, partially offset by amortization recognized in core earnings and a net reduction from insurance experience. The inorganic CSM movement was US$(29) million in the first half of 2024, largely driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against Asian currencies, partially offset by the impact of year-to-date equity market performance on certain participating contracts and the impact of the GA Reinsurance Transaction.
Assets under management were US$127.5 billion as at June 30, 2024, an increase of 2% compared with December 31, 2023, driven by the impact of positive equity market performance on invested assets and segregated funds net assets, partially offset by the transfer of invested assets related to the GA Reinsurance Transaction.

Core earnings in 2Q24 increased $28 million or 7% compared with 2Q23, reflecting business growth in Group Insurance and affinity markets and favourable retail claims experience in Individual Insurance, partially offset by lower investment spreads. In addition, the RGA Reinsurance Transaction led to a favourable core earnings variance of $1 million, attributable to the impact from the change in ECL, expected earnings on insurance contracts, insurance experience, and expected investment earnings.
Year-to-date net income attributed to shareholders was $352 million in 2024 compared with $536 million in the same period of 2023. Year-to-date core earnings were $766 million in 2024 compared with $727 million in the same period of 2023. The increase in year-to-date core earnings of $39 million or 5% reflected business growth in Group Insurance and affinity markets, improved claims experience in Individual Insurance, favourable claims experience in Group Insurance and a release in the provision for ECL in 2024 compared with an increase in 2023, partially offset by lower investment spreads. In addition, the RGA Reinsurance Transaction also led to a favourable core earnings variance of $1 million for the reasons noted above. Items excluded from year-to-date core earnings were a net charge of $414 million in 2024 compared with a net charge of $191 million for the same period of 2023. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of year-to-date core earnings to year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders.

Expressed in U.S. dollars, the functional currency of the segment, the net income attributed to shareholders was US$98 million in 2Q24 compared with US$136 million in 2Q23. Core earnings were US$303 million in 2Q24 compared with US$341 million in 2Q23 and items excluded from core earnings were a net charge of US$205 million in 2Q24 and 2Q23.
Core earnings in 2Q24 decreased US$38 million or 11% compared with 2Q23 reflecting more unfavourable net insurance experience. Net insurance experience primarily reflected unfavourable claims in long-term care and unfavourable claims and lapse experience in life. Investment income on allocated capital also increased core earnings by US$6 million in 2Q24 compared with 2Q23 (see Corporate and Other segment). In addition, the GA Reinsurance Transaction also led to an unfavourable core earnings variance of US$19 million, attributable to the impact on expected earnings on insurance contracts, expected investment earnings and insurance experience.
Year-to-date net income attributed to shareholders was US$18 million in 2024 compared with US$274 million in the same period of 2023. Year-to-date core earnings were US$638 million in 2024 compared with US$626 million in the same period of 2023. Year-to-date core earnings increased US$12 million mainly due to a lower charge in the ECL provision in 2024 partially offset by more unfavourable net insurance experience, primarily due to unfavourable claims experience in long-term care and lapse experience in life. Investment income on allocated capital also increased year-to-date core earnings by US$11 million in 2024 compared with 2023 (see Corporate and Other segment). In addition, the GA Reinsurance Transaction also led to an unfavourable year-to-date core earnings variance of $38 million, attributable to the impact on expected earnings on insurance contracts, expected investment earnings, the change in ECL, and insurance experience. Items excluded from year-to-date core earnings were a net charge of US$620 million in 2024 compared with a net charge of US$352 million for the same period of 2023. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of year-to-date core earnings to year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders. Expressed in Canadian dollars, year-to-date core earnings reflected a $6 million favourable impact of strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared with the Canadian dollar.
APE sales of US$93 million in 2Q24 decreased 4% compared with 2Q23 primarily due to lower sales in protection insurance products, partially offset by continued demand from affluent customers for accumulation insurance products. Year-to-date APE sales in 2024 of US$206 million increased 5% compared with the same period of 2023 reflecting higher demand for accumulation insurance products. APE sales of products with the John Hancock Vitality PLUS feature represented 81% of overall U.S. sales in both 2Q24 and year-to-date 2024, compared with 75% and 74% of overall U.S. sales in 2Q23 and year-to-date 2023, respectively.
CSM was US$2,572 million as at June 30, 2024, representing a decrease of US$256 million compared with December 31, 2023. Organic CSM movement was US$35 million in the first half of 2024, driven by the impact of new business and interest accretion, partially offset by amortization recognized in core earnings and net unfavourable insurance experience. The net unfavourable insurance experience was mainly due to life insurance lapse and claims experience, partially offset by long-term care and annuities claims experience. Inorganic CSM movement was US$(291) million in the first half of 2024, mainly due to the impact of the GA Reinsurance Transaction in 1Q24 as well as a new in-force reinsurance transaction covering certain life mortality in 2Q24, partially offset by favourable year-to-date market impacts from equity market experience and higher interest rates primarily on variable annuity contracts.
Assets under management were US$148.6 billion as at June 30, 2024, a decrease of US$5 billion or 3% compared with December 31, 2023. The decrease in total invested assets was primarily due to the transfer of invested assets related to the GA Reinsurance Transaction, partially offset by the net impact from interest rate and equity markets. The increase in the segregated funds net assets was primarily due to the net impact from interest rate and equity markets.

Net income attributed to shareholders is comprised of core earnings, which were $399 million in 2Q24 compared with $320 million in 2Q23, and items excluded from core earnings, which amounted to a net charge of $49 million in 2Q24 compared with a net charge of $3 million in 2Q23. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of quarterly core earnings to net income (loss) attributed to shareholders and section A1 “Profitability” above, for explanations of the items excluded from core earnings.
Core earnings increased $79 million or 23% compared with 2Q23, driven by an increase in net fee income from higher average AUMA reflecting the favourable impact of markets and net inflows, as well as a favourable tax true-up of $21 million in Asia, and continued disciplined expense management. In addition, investment income on allocated capital increased core earnings by $9 million compared with 2Q23 (see Corporate and Other segment).
Core EBITDA was $513 million in 2Q24, an increase of 20% compared with 2Q23, and core EBITDA margin was 26.3% in 2Q24, an increase of 170 basis points compared with 2Q23, both driven by strong growth in net fee income and disciplined expense management. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for additional information on core EBITDA and core EBITDA margin.

Year-to-date net income attributed to shareholders was $715 million in 2024 compared with $614 million in the same period of 2023, and year-to-date core earnings were $756 million in 2024 compared with $607 million in the same period of 2023. The increase in year-to-date core earnings of $149 million or 24% was primarily driven by similar factors as noted above for the quarter. In addition, year-to-date investment income on allocated capital increased year-to-date core earnings by $19 million compared with 2023 (see Corporate and Other segment). Items excluded from year-to-date core earnings were a net charge of $41 million in 2024 compared with a net gain of $7 million in the same period of 2023. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of year-to-date core earnings to year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders.
Year-to-date core EBITDA was $990 million in 2024, an increase of 21% compared with the same period of 2023 and core EBITDA margin was 25.9% in 2024, an increase of 240 basis points compared with the same period of 2023, both driven by the similar factors as noted above for the quarter. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for additional information on year-to-date core EBITDA and year-to-date core EBITDA margin.
Net inflows were $0.1 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $2.2 billion in 2Q23. By business line, the results were:
• | Retirement net outflows were $1.3 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $0.7 billion in 2Q23, as higher member contributions were more than offset by higher member withdrawals and a large-case retirement plan redemption in the U.S. |
• | Retail net outflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q24 were in line with net outflows of $0.1 billion in 2Q23, as increased demand for investment products amid an equity market recovery and improved investor sentiment, was offset by higher redemptions. |
• | Institutional Asset Management net inflows were $1.4 billion in 2Q24 compared with net inflows of $1.6 billion in 2Q23, as net inflows from CQS were more than offset by higher redemptions in fixed income mandates and lower sales in alternative mandates. |
Year-to-date net inflows were $6.8 billion in 2024, compared with $6.6 billion in the same period of 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher retail net inflows from increased demand for investment products. Retirement net inflows were in line with the prior year as growth in plan sales and member contributions offset higher member withdrawals. Institutional net inflows decreased despite net inflows from CQS due to higher fixed income redemptions.
Assets under management and administration of $943.9 billion as at June 30, 2024 increased 9% compared with December 31, 2023. The increase was driven by the favourable impact of equity markets, the $19 billion of assets added from the acquisition of CQS as well as year-to-date net inflows. As at June 30, 2024, Global WAM also managed $211.8 billion in assets for the Company’s non-WAM reporting segments. Including those managed assets, Global WAM managed AUMA was $1,155.7 billion compared with $1,055.0 billion as at December 31, 2023.
Segregated funds net assets were $270.1 billion as at June 30, 2024, 9% higher compared with December 31, 2023 on an actual exchange rate basis, driven by favourable impact of equity markets and the strengthening of the U.S. dollar compared with the Canadian dollar.
Business highlights – In 2Q24, we:
• | completed the acquisition of CQS, a U.K.-based multi-sector alternative credit manager, which we have co-branded as Manulife | CQS Investment Management and have leveraged these expanded capabilities to launch the John Hancock Multi Asset Credit Fund in U.S. Retail. This fund is a strong addition to our growing lineup of liquid and semi-liquid alternative offerings and our larger credit franchise; and |
• | piloted our Manulife MPF Robo-Advisor in Hong Kong Retirement, a new portal that aims to provide automated portfolio insights and personalized investment tips to our MPF members. This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing customer experiences in MPF investment management through digital innovation and strengthening member education. |

Corporate and Other is composed of investment performance on assets backing capital, net of amounts allocated to operating segments; financing costs; costs incurred by the corporate office related to shareholder activities (not allocated to the operating segments); our Property and Casualty (“P&C”) Reinsurance business; as well as our run-off reinsurance operation including variable annuities and accident and health. In addition, for segment reporting purposes, consolidations and eliminations of transactions between operating segments are also included in Corporate and Other earnings.
Corporate and Other reported a net loss attributed to shareholders of $104 million in 2Q24 compared with net income attributed to shareholders of $168 million in 2Q23. Net income (loss) attributed to shareholders is comprised of core earnings, which was a core loss of $126 million in 2Q24 compared with core earnings of $12 million in 2Q23, and the items excluded from core earnings (loss) which amounted to a net gain of $22 million in 2Q24 compared with a net gain of $156 million in 2Q23. During 2Q24 we recorded an $88 million charge related to the adoption of the Global Minimum Tax Act, which was enacted in Canada in the quarter and is retroactive to January 1, 2024.1 Of this amount, $46 million was recorded in core earnings, and $42 million was recorded in items excluded from core earnings.
See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of quarterly core earnings to net income (loss) attributed to shareholders and section A1 “Profitability” above, for explanations of the items excluded from core earnings.
The $138 million decline in core earnings (loss) was primarily related to the above-noted charge for GMT, higher interest on allocated capital to operating segments, Asia, Global WAM and the U.S., higher core expenses due to workforce-related costs, and lower gains from updates to provisions for estimated losses in our P&C Reinsurance business compared to prior year.
The year-to-date net loss attributed to shareholders was $131 million in 2024 compared with net income attributed to shareholders of $263 million in the same period of 2023. The year-to-date core loss was $202 million in 2024 compared with core earnings of $29 million in the same period of 2023. The decrease in the year-to-date core earnings (loss) of $231 million was primarily driven by similar factors as noted above. Items excluded from the year-to-date core loss were a net gain of $71 million in 2024 compared with a net gain of $234 million in the same period of 2023. See section E3 “Non-GAAP and other financial measures” below, for a reconciliation of year-to-date core earnings to year-to-date net income (loss) attributed to shareholders.
C | RISK MANAGEMENT AND RISK FACTORS UPDATE |
This section provides an update to our risk management practices and risk factors outlined in the 2023 MD&A. Text and tables in this section of the MD&A represent our disclosure on insurance, market, and liquidity risk in accordance with IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments – Disclosures”. Disclosures in accordance with IFRS 7 are identified by a vertical line in the left margin of each page. The identified text and tables represent an integral part of our unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
1 | The impact was reflected in Corporate & Other in situations where GMT was not substantively enacted in local jurisdictions where we operate as of June 30, 2024. The $46 million GMT amount in core earnings is with respect to 2Q24 core earnings and the $42 million in items excluded from core earnings relates to GMT for 1Q24 and GMT for 2Q24 items excluded from core earnings. |

C1 | Variable annuity and segregated fund guarantees |
As described in the MD&A in our 2023 Annual Report, guarantees on variable annuity products and segregated funds may include one or more of death, maturity, income and withdrawal guarantees. Variable annuity and segregated fund guarantees are contingent and only payable upon the occurrence of the relevant event, if fund values at that time are below guarantee values. Depending on future equity market levels, liabilities on current in-force business would be due primarily in the period from 2024 to 2044.
We seek to mitigate a portion of the risks embedded in our retained (i.e. net of reinsurance) variable annuity and segregated fund guarantee business through the combination of our dynamic and macro hedging strategies (see section C3 “Publicly traded equity performance risk sensitivities and exposure measures” below).The table below shows selected information regarding the Company’s variable annuity and segregated fund investment-related guarantees gross and net of reinsurance. |

(1) Guarantee Value and Net Amount at Risk in respect of guaranteed minimum withdrawal business in Canada and the U.S. reflect the time value of money of these claims. |
(2) Amount at risk (in-the-money amount) is the excess of guarantee values over fund values on all policies where the guarantee value exceeds the fund value. For guaranteed minimum death benefit, the amount at risk is defined as the current guaranteed minimum death benefit in excess of the current account balance and assumes that all claims are immediately payable. In practice, guaranteed death benefits are contingent and only payable upon the eventual death of policyholders if fund values remain below guarantee values. For guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit, the amount at risk assumes that the benefit is paid as a lifetime annuity commencing at the earliest contractual income start age. These benefits are also contingent and only payable at scheduled maturity/income start dates in the future, if the policyholders are still living and have not terminated their policies and fund values remain below guarantee values. For all guarantees, the amount at risk is floored at zero at the single contract level. |
(3) The amount at risk net of reinsurance at June 30, 2024 was $1,993 million (December 31, 2023 – $2,463 million) of which: US$310 million (December 31, 2023 – US$391 million) was on our U.S. business, $1,335 million (December 31, 2023 – $1,559 million) was on our Canadian business, US$97 million (December 31, 2023 – US$140 million) was on our Japan business and US$74 million (December 31, 2023 – US$155 million) was related to Asia (other than Japan) and our run-off reinsurance business. |
(4) Where a policy includes both living and death benefits, the guarantee in excess of the living benefit is included in the death benefit category as outlined in footnote 5. |
(5) Death benefits include standalone guarantees and guarantees in excess of living benefit guarantees where both death and living benefits are provided on a policy. |
C2 | Caution related to sensitivities |
In this document, we provide sensitivities and risk exposure measures for certain risks. These include sensitivities due to specific changes in market prices and interest rate levels projected using internal models as at a specific date, and are measured relative to a starting level reflecting the Company’s assets and liabilities at that date. The risk exposures measure the impact of changing one factor at a time and assume that all other factors remain unchanged. Actual results can differ significantly from these estimates for a variety of reasons including the interaction among these factors when more than one changes; changes in liabilities from updates to non-economic assumptions, changes in business mix, effective tax rates and other market factors; and the general limitations of our internal models. For these reasons, the sensitivities should only be viewed as directional estimates of the underlying sensitivities for the respective factors based on the assumptions outlined below. Given the nature of these calculations, we cannot provide assurance that the actual impact on contractual service margin, net income attributed to shareholders, other comprehensive income attributed to shareholders, and total comprehensive income attributed to shareholders or on MLI’s LICAT ratio will be as indicated. |

Market movements affect LICAT capital sensitivities through the available capital, surplus allowance and required capital components of the regulatory capital framework. The LICAT available capital component is primarily affected by total comprehensive income and the CSM.
C3 | Publicly traded equity performance risk sensitivities and exposure measures |
As outlined in our 2023 Annual Report, we have net exposure to equity risk through asset and liability mismatches; our variable annuity and segregated fund guarantee dynamic hedging strategy is not designed to completely offset the sensitivity of insurance contract liabilities to all risks associated with the guarantees embedded in these products. The macro hedging strategy is designed to mitigate public equity risk arising from variable annuity and segregated fund guarantees not dynamically hedged and from other unhedged exposures in our insurance contracts (see page 62 of our 2023 Annual Report).
Changes in public equity prices may impact other items including, but not limited to, asset-based fees earned on assets under management and administration or policyholder account value, and estimated profits and amortization of deferred policy acquisition and other costs. These items are not hedged.
The following tables include the potential impacts from an immediate 10%, 20% and 30% change in market values of publicly traded equities on net income attributed to shareholders, the CSM, other comprehensive income attributed to shareholders, and total comprehensive income attributed to shareholders. The potential impact is shown after taking into account the impact of the change in markets on the hedge assets. While we cannot reliably estimate the amount of the change in dynamically hedged variable annuity and segregated fund guarantee liabilities that will not be offset by the change in the dynamic hedge assets, we make certain assumptions for the purposes of estimating the impact on net income attributed to shareholders. |
This estimate assumes that the performance of the dynamic hedging program would not completely offset the gain / loss from the dynamically hedged variable annuity and segregated fund guarantee liabilities. It assumes that the hedge assets are based on the actual position at the period end, and that equity hedges in the dynamic program offset 95% of the hedged variable annuity liability movement that occurs as a result of market changes. |
It is also important to note that these estimates are illustrative, and that the dynamic and macro hedging programs may underperform these estimates, particularly during periods of high realized volatility and / or periods where both interest rates and equity market movements are unfavourable. The method used for deriving sensitivity information and significant assumptions did not change from the previous period. |
Changes in equity markets impact our available and required components of the LICAT ratio. The second set of tables shows the potential impact to MLI’s LICAT ratio resulting from changes in public equity market values.

(2) For variable annuity contracts measured under the variable fee approach (“VFA”) the impact of financial risk and changes in interest rates adjusts CSM, unless the risk mitigation option applies.

If the CSM for a group of variable annuity contracts is exhausted the full impact is reported in net income attributed to shareholders. |
(3) This impact for general fund equity investments includes general fund investments supporting our insurance contract liabilities, investment in seed money investments (in segregated and mutual funds made by Global WAM segment) and the impact on insurance contract liabilities related to the projected future fee income on variable universal life and other unit linked products. The impact does not include any potential impact on public equity weightings. The participating policy funds are largely self-supporting and generate no material impact on net income attributed to shareholders as a result of changes in equity markets. |
(4) Includes the impact of assumed rebalancing of equity hedges in the macro and dynamic hedging program. The impact of dynamic hedge represents the impact of equity hedges offsetting 95% of the dynamically hedged variable annuity liability movement that occurs as a result of market changes, but does not include any impact in respect of other sources of hedge accounting ineffectiveness (e.g. fund tracking, realized volatility and equity, interest rate correlations different from expected among other factors). |

C4 | Interest rate and spread risk sensitivities and exposure measures |
As at June 30, 2024, we estimated the sensitivity of our net income attributed to shareholders to a 50 basis point parallel decline in interest rates to be a benefit of $100 million, and to a 50 basis point parallel increase in interest rates to be a charge of $100 million. |
The table below shows the potential impacts from a 50 basis point parallel move in interest rates on the CSM, net income attributed to shareholders, other comprehensive income attributed to shareholders, and total comprehensive income attributed to shareholders. This includes a change in current government, swap and corporate rates for all maturities across all markets with no change in credit spreads between government, swap and corporate rates. Also shown separately are the potential impacts from a 50 basis point parallel move in corporate spreads and a 20 basis point parallel move in swap spreads. The impacts reflect the net impact of movements in asset values in liability and surplus segments and movements in the present value of cash flows for insurance contracts including those with cash flows that vary with the returns of underlying items where the present value is measured by stochastic modelling. The method used for deriving sensitivity information and significant assumptions did not change from the previous period. |
Manulife Financial Corporation – Second Quarter 2024 | 28 |
Table of Contents
The disclosed interest rate sensitivities reflect the accounting designations of our financial assets and corresponding insurance contract liabilities. In most cases these assets and liabilities are designated as FVOCI and as a result, impacts from changes to interest rates are largely in other comprehensive income. There are also changes in interest rates that impact the CSM for VFA contracts that relate to amounts that are not passed through to policyholders. In addition, changes in interest rates impact net income as it relates to derivatives not in hedge accounting relationships and on VFA contracts where the CSM has been exhausted. |
The disclosed interest rate sensitivities assume no hedge accounting ineffectiveness, as our hedge accounting programs are optimized for parallel movements in interest rates, leading to immaterial net income impacts under these shocks. However, the actual hedge accounting ineffectiveness is sensitive to non-parallel interest rate movements and will depend on the shape and magnitude of the interest rate movements, which could lead to variations in the impact to net income attributed to shareholders. |
Our sensitivities vary across all regions in which we operate, and the impacts of yield curve changes will vary depending upon the geography where the change occurs. Furthermore, the impacts from non-parallel movements may be materially different from the estimated impacts of parallel movements. |
The interest rate and spread risk sensitivities are determined in isolation of each other and therefore do not reflect the combined impact of changes in government rates and credit spreads between government, swap and corporate rates occurring simultaneously. As a result, the impact of the summation of each individual sensitivity may be materially different from the impact of sensitivities to simultaneous changes in interest rate and spread risk. |
The potential impacts also do not take into account other potential effects of changes in interest rate levels, for example, CSM at recognition on the sale of new business or lower interest earned on future fixed income asset purchases. |
The impacts do not reflect any potential effect of changing interest rates on the value of our ALDA. Rising interest rates could negatively impact the value of our ALDA (see “Critical Actuarial and Accounting Policies – Fair Value of Invested Assets”, on page 96 of our 2023 Annual Report). More information on ALDA can be found under the section C5 “Alternative long-duration asset performance risk sensitivities and exposure measures”. |
The impact to the LICAT ratio from a change in interest rates reflects the impacts on total comprehensive income, the LICAT adjustments to earnings for the CSM, the surplus allowance and required capital components of the regulatory capital framework. |

LICAT impacts presented for corporate spreads reflect the impact of anticipated scenario switches. |
LICAT Scenario Switch
When interest rates change past a certain threshold, reflecting the combined movement in risk-free rates and corporate spreads, a different prescribed interest rate stress scenario needs to be taken into account in the LICAT ratio calculation in accordance with OSFI’s LICAT guideline.
The LICAT guideline specifies four stress scenarios for interest rates and prescribes the methodology to determine the most adverse scenario to apply for each LICAT geographic region1 based on current market inputs and the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
1 | LICAT geographic locations to determine the most adverse scenario include North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, Japan, and Other Region. |
Manulife Financial Corporation – Second Quarter 2024 | 30 |
Table of Contents
With the current level of interest rates in 2Q24, the probability of a scenario switch that could materially impact our LICAT ratio is low.1 Should a scenario switch be triggered in a LICAT geographic region, the full impact would be reflected immediately for non-participating products while the impact for participating products would be reflected over six quarters using a rolling average of interest rate risk capital, in line with the smoothing approach prescribed in the LICAT guideline. The LICAT interest rate, corporate spread and swap spread sensitivities presented above reflect the impact of scenario switches, if any, for each disclosed sensitivity.
The level of interest rates and corporate spreads that would trigger a switch in the scenarios is dependent on market conditions and movements in the Company’s asset and liability position. The scenario switch, if triggered, could reverse in response to subsequent changes in interest rates and / or corporate spreads.

Strategic risk factors
Changes in tax laws, tax regulations, or interpretations of such laws or regulations could make some of our products less attractive to consumers, could increase our corporate taxes or cause us to change the value of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as our tax assumptions included in the valuation of our insurance and investment contract liabilities. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
• | In 2021, 136 of the 140 members of the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development / G20 Inclusive Framework agreed on a two-pillar solution to address tax challenges from the digital economy, and to close the gaps in international tax systems. These include a new approach to allocating certain profits of multinational entities amongst countries and a global minimum income tax rate of 15%. On June 20, 2024, the Canadian government further affirmed its commitment to these tax reforms by passing the Global Minimum Tax Act into law. Canada’s GMT apply retroactively to fiscal periods commencing on or after December 31, 2023 resulting in year-to-date GMT expense of $88 million recorded in 2Q24. While numerous variables contribute to the determination of our GMT liability, we generally expect that it will increase the effective tax rate by approximately 2 to 3 percentage points. Furthermore, the subsequent adoption of GMT by other countries in which we operate is likely to impact the tax jurisdictions in which our GMT liabilities will arise, but it should not have an effect on the Company’s overall GMT liability, as any higher local country taxes should reduce our GMT payable to Canada. |
• | Canada’s 2024 federal budget proposes to increase the capital gains inclusion rate from 50% to 66.67%, retroactive to June 25, 2024. Most of Manulife’s investments are not treated as capital property, however, and therefore we don’t expect to be materially affected by this tax change. For investments treated as capital properties, the increased effective tax rate on capital gains would result in a modest increase in the deferred tax liabilities on such investments with accrued gains. |
Product risk factors
External market conditions determine the availability, terms and cost of reinsurance protection which could impact our financial position and our ability to write new policies.
• | As part of our overall risk and capital management strategy, we purchase reinsurance protection on certain risks underwritten or assumed by our various insurance businesses. As the global reinsurance industry continues to review their business models, certain of our reinsurers have attempted to increase rates on our existing reinsurance contracts. The ability of our reinsurers to increase rates depends upon the terms of each reinsurance contract. Typically, a reinsurer’s ability to raise rates is restricted by terms in our reinsurance contracts, which we seek to enforce. Over the past several years we have received rate increase requests from some of our reinsurers. Thus far, dealing with those requests has not had a material adverse effect on our results of operation or financial condition. Consistent with past practice, we dispute requested increases and, if necessary, we can pursue legal action in order to protect our contractual rights. While possible outcomes remain unknown and there can be no assurance that the outcome of any one or more of these disputes would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operation or financial condition for a particular reporting period, we believe that our reserves, inclusive of reinsurance provisions, are appropriate overall. |

The critical accounting policies and estimation processes relating to the assessment of control over other entities for consolidation, estimation of fair value of invested assets, evaluation of invested asset impairments, appropriate accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting, determination of pension and other post-employment benefit obligations and expenses, accounting for income taxes and uncertain tax positions and valuation and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets are described starting on page 96 of our 2023 Annual Report.
D2 | Sensitivity to changes in assumptions |
The following table presents information on how reasonably possible changes in assumptions made by the Company for certain economic risk variables impact the CSM, net income attributed to shareholders, other comprehensive income attributed to shareholders and total comprehensive income attributed to shareholders. The method used for deriving sensitivity information and significant assumptions did not change from the previous period. |
The analysis is based on a simultaneous change in assumptions across all business units and holds all other assumptions constant. In practice, experience for each assumption will frequently vary by geographic market and business, and assumption updates are made on a business and geographic basis. Actual results can differ materially from these estimates for a variety of reasons including the interaction among these factors when more than one factor changes, actual experience differing from the assumptions, changes in business mix, effective tax rates, and the general limitations of our internal models.

E3 | Non-GAAP and other financial measures |
The Company prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. We use a number of non-GAAP and other financial measures to evaluate overall performance and to assess each of our businesses. This section includes information required by National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure in respect of “specified financial measures” (as defined therein).
Non-GAAP financial measures include core earnings (loss); pre-tax core earnings; core earnings available to common shareholders; core earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“core EBITDA”); total expenses; core expenses; core Drivers of Earnings (“DOE”) line items for core net insurance service result, core net investment result, other core earnings, and core income tax (expenses) recoveries; post-tax contractual service margin (“post-tax CSM”); post-tax contractual service margin net of NCI (“post-tax CSM net of NCI”); Manulife Bank net lending assets; Manulife Bank average net lending assets; assets under management (“AUM”); assets under management and administration (“AUMA”); Global WAM managed AUMA; core revenue; adjusted book value; and net annualized fee income. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures include the following stated on a constant exchange rate (“CER”) basis: any of the foregoing non-GAAP financial measures; net income attributed to shareholders; common shareholders’ net income; and new business CSM.
Non-GAAP ratios include core return on shareholders’ equity (“core ROE”); diluted core earnings per common share (“core EPS”); diluted core EPS excluding the impact of Global Minimum Taxes (“GMT”) (“Core EPS excluding the impact of GMT”); financial leverage ratio; adjusted book value per common share; common share core dividend payout ratio (“dividend payout ratio”); expense efficiency ratio; core EBITDA margin; effective tax rate on core earnings; and net annualized fee income yield on average AUMA. In addition, non-GAAP ratios include the percentage growth / decline on a CER basis in any of the above non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios; net income attributed to shareholders; common shareholders’ net income; pre-tax net income attributed to shareholders; general expenses; CSM; CSM net of NCI; impact of new insurance business net of NCI; new business CSM; basic earnings per common share (“basic EPS”); and diluted earnings per common share (“diluted EPS”).
Other specified financial measures include assets under administration (“AUA”); consolidated capital; embedded value (“EV”); new business value (“NBV”); new business value margin (“NBV margin”); sales; annualized premium equivalent (“APE”) sales; gross flows; net flows; average assets under management and administration (“average AUMA”); Global WAM average managed AUMA; average assets under administration; remittances; any of the foregoing specified financial measures stated on a CER basis; and percentage growth / decline in any of the foregoing specified financial measures on a CER basis. In addition, we provide an explanation below of the components of core DOE line items other than the change in expected credit loss, the items that comprise certain items excluded from core earnings (on a pre-tax and post-tax basis), and the components of CSM movement other than the new business CSM.

Our reporting currency for the Company is Canadian dollars and U.S. dollars is the functional currency for Asia and U.S. segment results. Financial measures presented in U.S. dollars are calculated in the same manner as the Canadian dollar measures. These amounts are translated to U.S. dollars using the period end rate of exchange for financial measures such as AUMA and the CSM balance and the average rates of exchange for the respective quarter for periodic financial measures such as our Consolidated Statements of Income, core earnings and items excluded from core earnings, and line items in our CSM movement schedule and DOE. Year-to-date or full year periodic financial measures presented in U.S. dollars are calculated as the sum of the quarterly results translated to U.S. dollars. See section E5 “Quarterly financial information” below for the Canadian to U.S. dollar quarterly rates of exchange.
Non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios are not standardized financial measures under GAAP and, therefore, might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Therefore, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any other financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Core earnings (loss) is a financial measure which we believe aids investors in better understanding the long-term earnings capacity and valuation of the business. Core earnings allows investors to focus on the Company’s operating performance by excluding the impact of market related gains or losses, changes in actuarial methods and assumptions that flow directly through income as well as a number of other items, outlined below, that we believe are material, but do not reflect the underlying earnings capacity of the business. For example, due to the long-term nature of our business, the mark-to-market movements in equity markets, interest rates including impacts on hedge accounting ineffectiveness, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices as well as the change in the fair value of ALDA from period-to-period can, and frequently do, have a substantial impact on the reported amounts of our assets, insurance contract liabilities and net income attributed to shareholders. These reported amounts may not be realized if markets move in the opposite direction in a subsequent period. This makes it very difficult for investors to evaluate how our businesses are performing from period-to-period and to compare our performance with other issuers.
We believe that core earnings better reflect the underlying earnings capacity and valuation of our business. We use core earnings and core EPS as key metrics in our short-term incentive plans at the total Company and operating segment level. We also base our mid- and long-term strategic priorities on core earnings.
Core earnings includes the expected return on our invested assets and any other gains (charges) from market experience are included in net income but excluded from core earnings. The expected return for fixed income assets is based on the related book yields. For ALDA and public equities, the expected return reflects our long-term view of asset class performance. These returns for ALDA and public equities vary by asset class and range from 3.25% to 11.5%, leading to an average return of between 9.0% to 9.5% on these assets as of June 30, 2024.
While core earnings is relevant to how we manage our business and offers a consistent methodology, it is not insulated from macroeconomic factors which can have a significant impact. See below for a reconciliation of core earnings to net income attributed to shareholders and income before income taxes. Net income attributed to shareholders excludes net income attributed to participating policyholders and non-controlling interests.
Any future changes to the core earnings definition referred to below, will be disclosed.
Items included in core earnings:
1. | Expected insurance service result on in-force policies, including expected release of the risk adjustment, CSM recognized for service provided, and expected earnings from short-term products measured under the premium allocation approach (“PAA”). |
2. | Impacts from the initial recognition of new contracts (onerous contracts, including the impact of the associated reinsurance contracts). |
3. | Insurance experience gains or losses that flow directly through net income. |
4. | Operating and investment expenses compared with expense assumptions used in the measurement of insurance and investment contract liabilities. |
Manulife Financial Corporation – Second Quarter 2024 | 35 |
Table of Contents
5. | Expected investment earnings, which is the difference between expected return on our invested assets and the associated finance income or expense from the insurance contract liabilities. |
6. | Net provision for ECL on FVOCI and amortized cost debt instruments. |
7. | Expected asset returns on surplus investments. |
8. | All earnings for the Global WAM segment, except for applicable net income items excluded from core earnings as noted below. |
9. | All earnings for the Manulife Bank business, except for applicable net income items excluded from core earnings as noted below. |
10. | Routine or non-material legal settlements. |
11. | All other items not specifically excluded. |
12. | Tax on the above items. |
13. | All tax related items except the impact of enacted or substantively enacted income tax rate changes and taxes on items excluded from core earnings. |
Net income items excluded from core earnings:
1. | Market experience gains (losses) including the items listed below: |
• Gains (charges) on general fund public equity and ALDA investments from returns being different than expected. • Gains (charges) on derivatives not in hedging relationships, or gains (charges) resulting from hedge accounting ineffectiveness. • Realized gains (charges) from the sale of FVOCI debt instruments. • Market related gains (charges) on onerous contracts measured using the variable fee approach (e.g. variable annuities, unit linked, participating insurance) net of the performance on any related hedging instruments. • Gains (charges) related to certain changes in foreign exchange rates. |
2. | Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions used in the measurement of insurance contract liabilities that flow directly through income. |
• The Company reviews actuarial methods and assumptions annually, and this process is designed to reduce the Company’s exposure to uncertainty by ensuring assumptions remain appropriate. This is accomplished by monitoring experience and selecting assumptions which represent a current view of expected future experience and ensuring that the risk adjustment is appropriate for the risks assumed. • Changes related to the ultimate spot rate within the discount curves are included in the market experience gains (losses). |
3. | The impact on the measurement of insurance and investment contract assets and liabilities and reinsurance contract held assets and liabilities from changes in product features and new or changes to in-force reinsurance contracts, if material. |
4. | The fair value changes in long-term investment plan obligations for Global WAM investment management. |
5. | Goodwill impairment charges. |
6. | Gains or losses on acquisition and disposition of a business. |
7. | Material one-time only adjustments, including highly unusual / extraordinary and material legal settlements and restructuring charges, or other items that are material and exceptional in nature. |
8. | Tax on the above items. |
9. | Net income (loss) attributed to participating shareholders and non-controlling interests. |
10. | Impact of enacted or substantively enacted income tax rate changes. |

Core EPS is equal to core earnings available to common shareholders divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Core EPS excluding the impact of GMT is equal to core earnings available to common shareholders excluding the impact of GMT divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
Core earnings available to common shareholders excluding the impact of GMT
Core earnings available to shareholders excluding the impact of GMT is calculated as core earnings available to common shareholders less GMT included in core earnings. We believe this measure will aid investors to better understand the impact that the adoption of the Global Minimum Tax Act had on our operating performance.

Table of Contents
Drivers of earnings (“DOE”) is used to identify the primary sources of gains or losses in each reporting period. It is one of the key tools we use to understand and manage our business. The DOE line items are comprised of amounts that have been included in our financial statements. The core DOE shows the sources of core earnings and the items excluded from core earnings, reconciled to net income attributed to shareholders. The elements of the core earnings DOE are described below:
Net insurance service result represents the core earnings associated with providing insurance service to policyholders within the period including:
• | Expected earnings on insurance contracts which includes the release of risk adjustment for expired non-financial risk, the CSM recognized for service provided and expected earnings on short-term PAA insurance business. |
• | Impact of new insurance business relates to income at initial recognition from new insurance contracts. Losses would occur if the group of new insurance contracts was onerous at initial recognition. If reinsurance contracts provide coverage for the direct insurance contracts, then the loss is offset by a corresponding gain on reinsurance contracts held. |
• | Insurance experience gains (losses) arise from items such as claims, persistency, and expenses, where the actual experience in the current period differs from the expected results assumed in the insurance and investment contract liabilities. Generally, this line would be driven by claims and expenses, as persistency experience relates to future service and would be offset by changes to the carrying amount of the contractual service margin unless the group is onerous, in which case the impact of persistency experience would be included in core earnings. |
• | Other represents pre-tax net income on residual items in the insurance result section. |
Net investment result represents the core earnings associated with investment results within the period. Note that results associated with Global WAM and Manulife Bank are shown on separate DOE lines. However, within the Consolidated Statements of Income, the results associated with these businesses would impact the total investment result. This section includes:
• | Expected investment earnings, which is the difference between expected asset returns and the associated finance income or expense from insurance and investment contract liabilities, net of investment expenses. |
• | Change in expected credit loss, which is the gain or charge to net income attributed to shareholders for credit losses to bring the allowance for credit losses to a level management considers adequate for expected credit-related losses on its portfolio. |
• | Expected earnings on surplus reflects the expected investment return on surplus assets. |
• | Other represents pre-tax net income on residual items in the investment result section. |
Global WAM is the pre-tax net income from the Global Wealth and Asset Management segment, adjusted for applicable items excluded from core earnings as noted in the core earnings (loss) section above.
Manulife Bank is the pre-tax net income from Manulife Bank, adjusted for applicable items excluded from core earnings as noted in the core earnings (loss) section above.
Other represents net income associated with items outside of the net insurance service result, net investment result, Global WAM and Manulife Bank. Other includes lines attributed to core earnings such as:
• | Non-directly attributable expenses are expenses incurred by the Company which are not directly attributable to fulfilling insurance contracts. Non-directly attributable expenses exclude non-directly attributable investment expenses as they are included in the net investment result. |
• | Other represents pre-tax net income on residual items in the Other section. Most notably this would include the cost of financing debt issued by Manulife. |
Manulife Financial Corporation – Second Quarter 2024 | 49 |
Table of Contents
Net income attributed to shareholders includes the following items excluded from core earnings:
• | Market experience gains (losses) related to items excluded from core earnings that relate to changes in market variables. |
• | Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions that flow directly through income related to updates in the methods and assumptions used to value insurance contract liabilities. |
• | Restructuring charges includes a charge taken to reorganize operations. |
• | Reinsurance transactions, tax-related items and other include the impacts of new or changes to in-force reinsurance contracts, the impact of enacted or substantively enacted income tax rate changes and other amounts defined as items excluded from core earnings not specifically captured in the lines above. |
All of the above items are discussed in more detail in our definition of items excluded from core earnings.

Table of Contents
The contractual service margin (“CSM”) is a liability that represents future unearned profits on insurance contracts written. It is a component of our insurance and reinsurance contract liabilities on our Statement of Financial Position and includes amounts attributed to common shareholders, participating policyholders and NCI.
In 2023, we included amounts attributed to common shareholders, participating policyholders and NCI in our reporting of changes in the CSM. Effective January 1, 2024, we no longer include amounts related to NCI in this reporting, and prior year amounts have been restated. In addition, the new business CSM reconciliation has been adjusted to remove NCI information.
Changes in the CSM net of NCI are classified as organic and inorganic. CSM growth is the percentage change in the CSM net of NCI compared with a prior period on a constant exchange rate basis.
Changes in CSM net of NCI that are classified as organic include the following impacts:
• | Impact of new insurance business (“impact of new business” or “new business CSM”) is the impact from insurance contracts initially recognized in the period and includes acquisition expense related gains (losses) which impact the CSM in the period. It excludes the impact from entering into new in-force reinsurance contracts which would generally be considered a management action. |
• | Expected movement related to finance income or expenses (“interest accretion”) includes interest accreted on the CSM net of NCI during the period and the expected change on VFA contracts if returns are as expected. |
• | CSM recognized for service provided (“CSM amortization”) is the portion of the CSM net of NCI that is recognized in net income for service provided in the period; and |
• | Insurance experience gains (losses) and other is primarily the change from experience variances that relate to future periods. This includes persistency experience and changes in future period cash flows caused by other current period experience. |
Changes in CSM net of NCI that are classified as inorganic include:
• | Changes in actuarial methods and assumptions that adjust the CSM; |

AUMA is a financial measure of the size of the Company. It is comprised of AUM and AUA. AUM includes assets of the General Account, consisting of total invested assets and segregated funds net assets, and external client assets for which we provide investment management services, consisting of mutual fund, institutional asset management and other fund net assets. AUA are assets for which we provide administrative services only. Assets under management and administration is a common industry metric for wealth and asset management businesses.
Our Global WAM business also manages assets on behalf of other segments of the Company. Global WAM-managed AUMA is a financial measure equal to the sum of Global WAM’s AUMA and assets managed by Global WAM on behalf of other segments. It is an important measure of the assets managed by Global WAM.

Average assets under management and administration (“average AUMA”) is the average of Global WAM’s AUMA during the reporting period. It is a measure used in analyzing and explaining fee income and earnings of our Global WAM segment. It is calculated as the average of the opening balance of AUMA and the ending balance of AUMA using daily balances where available and month-end or quarter-end averages when daily averages are unavailable. Similarly, Global WAM average managed AUMA and average AUA are the average of Global WAM’s managed AUMA and AUA, respectively, and are calculated in a manner consistent with average AUMA.

Core EBITDA is a financial measure which Manulife uses to better understand the long-term earnings capacity and valuation of our Global WAM business on a basis more comparable to how the profitability of global asset managers are generally measured. Core EBITDA presents core earnings before the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Core EBITDA excludes certain acquisition expenses related to insurance contracts in our retirement businesses which are deferred and amortized over the expected lifetime of the customer relationship. Core EBITDA was selected as a key performance indicator for our Global WAM business, as EBITDA is widely used among asset management peers, and core earnings is a primary profitability metric for the Company overall.

Core EBITDA margin is a financial measure which Manulife uses to better understand the long-term profitability of our Global WAM business on a more comparable basis to how profitability of global asset managers are measured. Core EBITDA margin presents core earnings before the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization divided by core revenue from these businesses. Core revenue is used to calculate our core EBITDA margin, and is equal to the sum of pre-tax other revenue and investment income in Global WAM included in core EBITDA, and it excludes such items as revenue related to integration and acquisitions and market experience gains (losses). Core EBITDA margin was selected as a key performance indicator for our Global WAM business, as EBITDA margin is widely used among asset management peers, and core earnings is a primary profitability metric for the Company overall.

Expense efficiency ratio is a financial measure which Manulife uses to measure progress towards our target to be more efficient. It is defined as core expenses divided by the sum of core earnings before income taxes (“pre-tax core earnings”) and core expenses.
Embedded value (“EV”) is a measure of the present value of shareholders’ interests in the expected future distributable earnings on in-force business reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position of Manulife, excluding any value associated with future new business.
With the adoption of IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts”, the calculation of EV has changed for periods beginning after 2022 as follows:
• | Canadian businesses, the International High Net Worth business, as well as business ceded to an affiliate reinsurer, reflect IFRS 17 earnings and LICAT required capital, instead of IFRS 4 earnings and LICAT required capital; |
• | U.S. businesses reflects local statutory earnings (NAIC) and capital requirements (RBC), instead of IFRS 4 earnings and LICAT required capital; and |
• | Asian businesses remained on local statutory bases. |
EV for periods after December 31, 2022 is calculated as the sum of the adjusted net worth and the value of in-force business calculated as at December 31. The adjusted net worth is the IFRS shareholders’ equity adjusted for goodwill and intangible assets, fair value of surplus assets, the fair value of debt, preferred shares, and other equity, and local statutory balance sheet, regulatory reserve, and capital for our U.S. and Asian businesses. The value of in-force business in Canada and the International High Net Worth business and business ceded to an affiliate reinsurer is the present value of expected future IFRS earnings, on an IFRS 17 basis, on in-force business less the present value of the cost of holding capital to support the in-force business under the LICAT framework. The value of the remaining in-force business in the U.S. and Asia reflects local statutory earnings and capital requirements. The value of in-force business excludes Global WAM, Bank or P&C Reinsurance businesses.

Net annualized fee income yield on average AUMA (“Net fee income yield”) is a financial measure that represents the net annualized fee income from Global WAM channels over average AUMA. This measure provides information on Global WAM’s adjusted return generated from managing AUMA.
Net annualized fee income is a financial measure that represents Global WAM income before income taxes, adjusted to exclude items unrelated to net fee income, including general expenses, investment income, non-AUMA related net benefits and claims, and net premium taxes. It also excludes the components of Global WAM net fee income from managing assets on behalf of other segments. This measure is annualized based on the number of days in the year divided by the number of days in the reporting period.

New business value (“NBV”) is the change in embedded value as a result of sales in the reporting period. NBV is calculated as the present value of shareholders’ interests in expected future distributable earnings, after the cost of capital calculated under the LICAT framework in Canada and the International High Net Worth business, and the local capital requirements in Asia and the U.S., on actual new business sold in the period using assumptions that are consistent with the assumptions used in the calculation of embedded value. NBV excludes businesses with immaterial insurance risks, such as the Company’s Global WAM, Manulife Bank and the P&C Reinsurance businesses. NBV is a useful metric to evaluate the value created by the Company’s new business franchise.
New business value margin (“NBV margin”) is calculated as NBV divided by APE sales excluding NCI. APE sales are calculated as 100% of regular premiums and deposits sales and 10% of single premiums and deposits sales. NBV margin is a useful metric to help understand the profitability of our new business.
Sales are measured according to product type:
For individual insurance, sales include 100% of new annualized premiums and 10% of both excess and single premiums. For individual insurance, new annualized premiums reflect the annualized premium expected in the first year of a policy that requires premium payments for more than one year. Single premium is the lump sum premium from the sale of a single premium product, e.g., travel insurance. Sales are reported gross before the impact of reinsurance.
For group insurance, sales include new annualized premiums and administrative services only premium equivalents on new cases, as well as the addition of new coverages and amendments to contracts, excluding rate increases.
Insurance-based wealth accumulation product sales include all new deposits into variable and fixed annuity contracts. As we discontinued sales of new variable annuity contracts in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2013, subsequent deposits into existing U.S. variable annuity contracts are not reported as sales. Asia variable annuity deposits are included in APE sales.
APE sales are comprised of 100% of regular premiums and deposits and 10% of excess and single premiums and deposits for both insurance and insurance-based wealth accumulation products.

(Canadian $ in millions except per share amounts or unless otherwise stated, unaudited)
Note 1 Nature of Operations and Material Accounting Policy Information |
(a) Reporting entity
Manulife Financial Corporation (“MFC”) is a publicly traded company and the holding company of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company (“MLI”), a Canadian life insurance company. MFC, including its subsidiaries (collectively, “Manulife” or the “Company”) is a leading financial services group with principal operations in Asia, Canada and the United States. Manulife’s international network of employees, agents and distribution partners offers financial protection and wealth management products and services to personal and business clients as well as asset management services to institutional customers. The Company operates as Manulife in Asia and Canada and as John Hancock and Manulife in the United States.
These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and condensed notes have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), using accounting policies which are consistent with those used in the Company’s 2023 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.
These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, included on pages 155 to 276 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Report, as well as the disclosures on risk in denoted components of the “Risk Management and Risk Factors Update” section of the Second Quarter 2024 Management Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”).

Refer to note 1 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of material estimation processes used in the preparation of these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and description of the Company’s measurement techniques in determining carrying values and respective fair values of its assets and liabilities.
Note 2 Accounting and Reporting Changes |
Future accounting and reporting changes
(I) Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards – Volume 11
Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards – Volume 11 was issued in July 2024 and is effective on or after January 1, 2026. The IASB issued eight minor amendments to different standards as part of the Annual Improvements process, to be applied retrospectively except for amendments to IFRS 1 “First-Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” for first time adopters and to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (“IFRS 9”) for derecognition of lease liabilities. Adoption of these amendments is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table of Contents
(II) | Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7) |
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures” (“IFRS 7”)) were issued in May 2024 to be effective for years beginning on January 2026 and to be applied retrospectively. The amendments clarify guidance on timing of derecognition of financial liabilities, on the assessment of cash flow characteristics and resulting classification and disclosure of financial assets with terms referencing contingent events including environmental, social and corporate governance events, and of the treatment of non-recourse assets and contractually linked instruments. The Company is assessing the impact of these amendments on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
(III) | IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in the Financial Statements” |
IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” (“IFRS 18”) was issued in April 2024 to be effective for years beginning on January 1, 2027 and to be applied retrospectively. The standard replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” (“IAS 1”) while carrying forward many elements of IAS 1 unchanged. IFRS 18 introduces three sets of new requirements for presentation of financial statements and disclosures within financial statements:
• | Introduction of five defined categories of income and expenses: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, with defined subtotals and totals for “operating income or loss”, “income or loss before financing and income taxes” and “income or loss”, |
• | disclosure within a note to financial statements of management-defined performance measures (“MPMs”) with a reconciliation between MPMs and IFRS performance measures. MPMs are defined as subtotals of income and expenses not specified by IFRS Accounting Standards, which are used in public communications outside financial statements to communicate management’s view of the Company’s financial performance, and |
• | enhanced guidance on organizing information and determining whether to provide the information in the financial statements or in the notes. IFRS 18 also requires enhanced disclosure of operating expenses based on their characteristics, including their nature, function or both. |
The Company is assessing the impact of this standard on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
(IV) | Amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes” |
Amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes” were issued in May 2023. The amendments relate to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s International Pillar Two tax reform, which seeks to establish a global minimum income tax rate of 15% and addresses inter-jurisdictional base erosion and profit shifting, targeting larger international companies. Most jurisdictions have agreed to participate and effective dates for Global Minimum Taxes (“GMT”) vary by jurisdiction based on local legislation.
The amendments require that, effective for years beginning on or after January 1, 2023, disclosure of current tax expense or recovery related to GMT is required along with, to the extent that GMT legislation is enacted or substantively enacted but not yet in effect, disclosure of known or reasonably estimable information that helps users of financial statements understand the Company’s exposure to GMT arising from that legislation. The amendments introduce a temporary mandatory exception in IAS 12 from recognizing and disclosing deferred tax assets and liabilities related to GMT. The Company has applied the temporary exception from accounting for deferred taxes in respect of GMT.

On June 20, 2024, Canada enacted the Global Minimum Tax Act, retrospective to fiscal periods commencing on or after December 31, 2023. The Company is in scope of this legislation because it is located in Canada and will be required to pay additional GMT in Canada in respect of its global entities whose effective tax rate is below 15%. The Company’s entities will also be subject to GMT in those jurisdictions where a Qualifying Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (“QDMTT”) is in effect.
Based on the financial data of the first two quarters of 2024, the Company expects to pay GMT of $88 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily arising from its operations in Hong Kong and China. GMT arising from the Company’s operations in Hong Kong, China, and Bermuda, are expected to be payable in Canada for 2024 as these jurisdictions do not currently have a QDMTT in effect. Barbados passed legislation on May 28, 2024, introducing a QDMTT retrospective to January 1, 2024. As such, any GMT arising from the Company’s operations in Barbados will be payable in Barbados.
As at June 30, 2024, certain other jurisdictions in which the Company operates, including Belgium, Ireland, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and Vietnam, have enacted legislation to adopt GMT. The assessment of the Company’s potential exposure to GMT in these jurisdictions is based on the most recent information available regarding the financial performance of the constituent entities and the associated statutory income tax rate. Based on the assessment, the Company’s operations within these jurisdictions do not have a material exposure to GMT and therefore no disclosure of current tax expense or recovery related to GMT is provided.
The United States adopted a Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”) of 15%, with an effective date of January 1, 2023. CAMT is not a QDMTT for the purposes of GMT.
In response to GMT, Bermuda enacted the Corporate Income Tax 2023 Act on December 27, 2023. The Company’s Bermuda tax-resident subsidiaries and branches will be subject to this new tax regime effective January 1, 2025, at a rate of 15%. The Bermuda corporate income tax is not a QDMTT for the purposes of GMT.

(1) | Fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) classification was elected for debt instruments backing certain insurance contract liabilities to substantially reduce any accounting mismatch arising from changes in the fair value of these assets, and changes in the carrying value of the related insurance contract liabilities. |
(2) | Fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVOCI”) classification for debt instruments backing certain insurance contract liabilities inherently reduces any accounting mismatch arising from changes in the fair value of these assets, and changes in the carrying value of the related insurance contract liabilities. |
(3) | Other includes mortgages and loans to Bank clients held at amortized cost, own use properties, investment properties, equity method accounted investments, and leveraged leases. Also includes debt securities, which qualify as having Solely Payment of Principal and Interest (“SPPI”), are held to collect contractual cash flows and are carried at amortized cost. |
(4) | Invested assets above include debt securities, mortgages, private placements and approximately $409 (December 31, 2023 – $360) of other invested assets, which primarily qualify as SPPI. Invested assets which do not have SPPI qualifying cash flows include debt securities, private placements and other invested assets with fair values of $nil, $113 and $542, respectively (December 31, 2023 – $nil, $115 and $539, respectively). The change in the fair value of these invested assets for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was a $1 increase (a $49 increase during the year ended December 31, 2023). |
(5) | Includes short-term securities with remaining maturities of less than one year at acquisition amounting to $7,712 (December 31, 2023 – $6,162), cash equivalents with remaining maturities of less than 90 days at acquisition amounting to $7,210 (December 31, 2023 – $7,832) and cash of $7,176 (December 31, 2023 – $6,344). |
(6) | Debt securities include securities which were acquired with remaining maturities of less than one year and less than 90 days of $1,323 and $206, respectively (December 31, 2023 – $1,294 and $1,413, respectively). |
(7) | Floating rate invested assets above which are subject to interest rate benchmark reform, but have not yet transitioned to replacement reference rates, include debt securities benchmarked to the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (CDOR) and the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate (AUD BBSW) of $146 and $16, respectively (December 31, 2023 – $167 and $16, respectively), and private placements benchmarked to AUD BBSW and the New Zealand Bank Bill Reference Rate (NZD BKBM) of $198 and $60, respectively (December 31, 2023 – $198 and $61, respectively). CDOR was decommissioned on June 28, 2024, and exposures indexed to CDOR as at June 30, 2024 represent invested assets with remaining CDOR-based settlements until the next rate reset date, or fixed to float debt securities paying a fixed rate until conversion to a floating rate. The interest rate benchmark reform is expected to have an impact on the valuation of invested assets whose value is tied to the affected interest rate benchmarks. The Company has assessed its exposure at the contract level, by benchmark and instrument type. As at June 30, 2024, the interest rate benchmark reform has not resulted in material changes in the Company’s risk management strategy. |
(8) | Own use property of $2,448 (December 31, 2023 – $2,430), are underlying items for insurance contracts with direct participating features and are measured at fair value as if they were investment properties, as permitted by IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment”. Own use property of $167 (December 31, 2023 – $161) is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
(9) | Alternative long-duration assets (“ALDA”) include investments in infrastructure of $16,446, private equity of $16,371, timber and agriculture of $5,858, energy of $1,809, and various other ALDA of $3,318 (December 31, 2023 – $14,950, $15,445, $5,719, $1,859, and $3,461 respectively). |

(1) | Fair value of private placements is determined through an internal valuation methodology using both observable and non-market observable inputs. Non-market observable inputs include credit assumptions and liquidity spread adjustments. Private placements are classified within Level 2 unless the liquidity adjustment constitutes a material price impact, in which case the securities are classified as Level 3. |
(2) | For real estate properties, the significant non-market observable inputs are capitalization rates ranging from 2.05% to 9.50% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (ranging from 2.72% to 10.75% for the year ended December 31, 2023), terminal capitalization rates ranging from 3.10% to 10.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (ranging from 3.00% to 10.00% for the year ended December 31, 2023) and discount rates ranging from 3.20% to 13.75% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (ranging from 3.20% to 14.00% for the year ended December 31, 2023). Holding other factors constant, a lower capitalization or terminal capitalization rate will tend to increase the fair value of an investment property. Changes in fair value based on variations in non-market observable inputs generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship between the directional changes of each input is not usually linear. |
(3) | Other invested assets measured at fair value are held in infrastructure and timber sectors and include fund investments of $28,804 (December 31, 2023 – $27,532) recorded at net asset value. The significant inputs used in the valuation of the Company’s infrastructure investments are primarily future distributable cash flows, terminal values and discount rates. Holding other factors constant, an increase to future distributable cash flows or terminal values would tend to increase the fair value of an infrastructure investment, while an increase in the discount rate would have the opposite effect. Discount rates for the six months ended June 30, 2024 ranged from 7.50% to 20.00% (ranged from 7.35% to 15.60% for the year ended December 31, 2023). Disclosure of distributable cash flow and terminal value ranges are not meaningful given the disparity in estimates by project. The significant inputs used in the valuation of the Company’s investments in timberland properties are timber prices and discount rates. Holding other factors constant, an increase to timber prices would tend to increase the fair value of a timberland investment, while an increase in the discount rates would have the opposite effect. Discount rates for the six months ended June 30, 2024 ranged from 4.00% to 7.00% (ranged from 4.00% to 7.00% for the year ended December 31, 2023). A range of prices for timber is not meaningful as the market price depends on factors such as property location and proximity to markets and export yards. |
(4) | Segregated funds net assets are measured at fair value. The Company’s Level 3 segregated funds underlying assets are predominantly in investment properties and timberland properties valued as described above. |

(1) | The carrying value of other invested assets includes equity method accounted other invested assets of $8,802 (December 31, 2023 – $8,237) and leveraged leases of $4,015 (December 31, 2023 – $3,790). Fair value of leveraged leases is disclosed at their carrying values as fair value is not routinely calculated on these investments. Fair value for energy properties is determined using external appraisals based on discounted cash flow methodology. Inputs used in valuation are primarily comprised of forecasted price curves, planned production, as well as capital expenditures, and operating costs. Fair value of equity method accounted other invested assets is determined using a variety of valuation techniques including discounted cash flows and market comparable approaches. Inputs vary based on the specific investment. |
Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2
The Company records transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 at their fair values as at the end of each reporting period, consistent with the date of the determination of fair value. Assets are transferred out of Level 1 when they are no longer transacted with sufficient frequency and volume in an active market. Conversely, assets are transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 when transaction volume and frequency are indicative of an active market. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, there were no transfers of assets between Level 1 and Level 2.
For segregated funds net assets, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had $nil and $nil transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 (June 30, 2023 – $nil and $nil). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had $nil and $nil transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 (June 30, 2023 – $1 and $nil).
Invested assets and segregated funds net assets measured at fair value using significant non-market observable inputs (Level 3)
The Company classifies fair values of invested assets, derivatives and segregated funds net assets as Level 3 if there are no observable markets for these assets or, in the absence of active markets, significant non-market observable inputs are used to determine fair value. The Company prioritizes the use of market-based inputs over non-market observable inputs in determining Level 3 fair values. The gains and losses in the table below include the changes in fair value due to both observable and non-market observable factors.

Transfers into Level 3 primarily result from private placements that were impaired during the period or where a lack of observable market data (versus the previous period) resulted in reclassifying assets into Level 3. Transfers from Level 3 primarily result from observable market data becoming available for the entire term structure of the private placements.

Note 4 Derivative and Hedging Instruments |
The Company uses derivative financial instruments (“derivatives”) including swaps, forward and futures agreements, and options to manage current and anticipated exposures to changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and equity market prices, and to replicate exposure to different types of investments. The Company’s policies and procedures for derivative and hedging instruments can be found in notes 1 and 5 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

The total notional amount above includes $79 billion (December 31, 2023 – $79 billion) of derivative instruments which reference rates that are impacted under the interest rate benchmark reform, with a significant majority to CDOR. The exposure in the Company’s hedge accounting programs is primarily to the CDOR benchmark. Compared to the overall risk exposure, the effect of interest rate benchmark reform on existing accounting hedges is not significant. The Company continues to apply high probability and high effectiveness expectation assumptions for cash flows and there would be no automatic de-designation of qualifying hedge relationships due to the impact from interest rate benchmark reform. Exposures indexed to CDOR were converted to an interest rate referencing the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (CORRA) as at July 1, 2024.

Movement in net derivatives measured at fair value using significant non-market observable inputs (Level 3) is presented in note 3 (b).
(b) Embedded derivatives
Certain insurance contracts contain features that are classified as embedded derivatives and are measured separately at FVTPL, including reinsurance contracts related to guaranteed minimum income benefits and contracts containing certain credit and interest rate features.
Certain reinsurance contracts with guaranteed minimum income benefits contain embedded derivatives requiring separate measurement at FVTPL as the financial components contained in the reinsurance contracts do not contain significant insurance risk. Claims expenses and claims paid on the reinsurance assumed offset claims recovered under reinsured contracts. Reinsured contracts with guaranteed minimum income benefits had a fair value of $310 (December 31, 2023 – $402) and reinsurance assumed with guaranteed minimum income benefits had a fair value of $nil (December 31, 2023 – $46).
The Company’s credit and interest rate embedded derivatives promise to pay the returns on a portfolio of assets to the contract holder. These embedded derivatives contain credit and interest rate risks that are financial risks embedded in the underlying insurance and investment contracts. As at June 30, 2024, these embedded derivative liabilities had a fair value of $378 (December 31, 2023 – $487).
Other insurance contract features which are classified as embedded derivatives but are exempt from separate measurement at fair value include variable universal life and variable life products’ minimum guaranteed credited rates, no lapse guarantees, guaranteed annuitization options, Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) indexing of benefits, and segregated fund minimum guarantees other than reinsurance ceded/assumed guaranteed minimum income benefits. These embedded derivatives are measured and reported within insurance contract liabilities and are exempt from separate fair value measurement as they contain insurance risk and/or are closely related to the insurance host contracts.

Note 7 Risk Management |
The Company’s policies and procedures for managing risk related to financial instruments and insurance contracts can be found in note 9 of the Company’s 2023 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the denoted components in the “Risk Management and Risk Factors” section of the Company’s MD&A in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report.
(a) Risk disclosures included in the Second Quarter 2024 MD&A
Market risk sensitivities related to variable annuity and segregated fund guarantees, publicly traded equity performance risk, interest rate and spread risk and alternative long-duration asset performance risk are disclosed in denoted components in the “Risk Management and Risk Factors” section of the Second Quarter 2024 MD&A. These disclosures are in accordance with IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”, IFRS 17 “Insurance Contracts” and IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and are an integral part of these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. The risks to which the Company is exposed at the end of the reporting period are representative of risks it is typically exposed to throughout the reporting period.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss due to inability or unwillingness of a borrower, or counterparty, to fulfill its payment obligations. Worsening regional and global economic conditions, segment or industry sector challenges, or company specific factors could result in defaults or downgrades and could lead to increased provisions or impairments related to the Company’s general fund invested assets.
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is managed through risk management policies and procedures which include a defined credit evaluation and adjudication process, delegated credit approval authorities and established exposure limits by borrower, corporate connection, credit rating, industry and geographic region. The Company measures derivative counterparty exposure as net potential credit exposure, which takes into consideration fair values of all transactions with each counterparty, net of any collateral held, and an allowance to reflect future potential exposure. Reinsurance counterparty exposure is measured reflecting the level of ceded liabilities.
The Company also ensures where warranted, that mortgages, private placements and loans to Bank clients are secured by collateral, the nature of which depends on the credit risk of the counterparty.
Credit risk associated with derivative counterparties is discussed in note 7(e).

(e) Derivatives
The Company’s point-in-time exposure to losses related to credit risk of a derivative counterparty is limited to the amount of any net gains that may have accrued with the particular counterparty. Gross derivative counterparty exposure is measured as the total fair value (including accrued interest) of all outstanding contracts in a gain position excluding any offsetting contracts in a loss position and the impact of collateral on hand. The Company limits the risk of credit losses from derivative counterparties by using investment grade counterparties, entering into master netting arrangements which permit the offsetting of contracts in a loss position in the case of a counterparty default and entering into Credit Support Annex agreements whereby collateral must be provided when the exposure exceeds a certain threshold.
All contracts are held with or guaranteed by investment grade counterparties, the majority of whom are rated A- or higher. As at June 30, 2024, the percentage of the Company’s derivative exposure with counterparties rated AA- or higher was 33 per cent (December 31, 2023 – 33 per cent). As at June 30, 2024, the largest single counterparty exposure, without taking into consideration the impact of master netting agreements or the benefit of collateral held, was $1,503 (December 31, 2023 – $1,357). The net exposure to this counterparty, after taking into consideration master netting agreements and the fair value of collateral held, was $nil (December 31, 2023 – $nil).
(f) Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
Certain derivatives, securities lent and repurchase agreements have conditional offset rights. The Company does not offset these financial instruments in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, as the rights of offset are conditional.
In the case of derivatives, collateral is collected from and pledged to counterparties and clearing houses to manage credit risk exposure in accordance with Credit Support Annexes to swap agreements and clearing agreements. Under master netting agreements, the Company has a right of offset in the event of default, insolvency, bankruptcy or other early termination.
In the case of reverse repurchase and repurchase transactions, additional collateral may be collected from or pledged to counterparties to manage credit exposure according to bilateral reverse repurchase or repurchase agreements. In the event of default by a reverse repurchase transaction counterparty, the Company is entitled to liquidate the collateral held to offset against the same counterparty’s obligation.

A credit linked note is a debt instrument the term of which, in this case, is linked to a variable surplus note. A surplus note is a subordinated debt obligation that often qualifies as surplus (the U.S. statutory equivalent of equity) by some U.S. state insurance regulators. Interest payments on surplus notes are made after all other contractual payments are made. The following tables present the effect of unconditional netting.

Normal course issuer bid
On February 20, 2024, the Company received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) to launch a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) that permits the purchase for cancellation of up to 50 million common shares, representing approximately 2.8% of its issued and outstanding common shares. Purchases under the NCIB commenced on February 23, 2024 and may continue until February 22, 2025, when the NCIB expires, or such earlier date as the Company completes its purchases.
On May 7, 2024, the Company announced that the TSX approved an amendment to the existing NCIB to increase the number of common shares that it may repurchase for cancellation from up to 50 million common shares (approximately 2.8% of shares outstanding) to up to 90 million common shares (approximately 5% of shares outstanding as at February 12, 2024).
The Company’s previous NCIB expired on February 22, 2024, with no purchases during 2024.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company purchased for cancellation 25 million shares (2023 – 33 million shares) for
$840 and incurred $15 tax on net repurchases of equity (2023 – $841 and $nil, respectively). Of this, $295 was recorded in common shares and $560 was recorded in retained earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity (2023 – $392 and $449, respectively).
(c) Earnings per share
The following is a reconciliation of the denominator (number of shares) in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share.

Weighted average number of diluted common shares | 1,799 | 1,846 | 1,805 | 1,854 |
(1) The dilutive effect of stock-based awards was calculated using the treasury stock method. This method calculates the number of incremental shares by assuming the outstanding stock-based awards are (i) exercised and (ii) then reduced by the number of shares assumed to be repurchased from the issuance proceeds, using the average market price of MFC common shares for the period. |
Note 11 Revenue from Service Contracts |
The Company provides investment management services, transaction processing and administrative services and distribution and related services to proprietary and third-party investment funds, retirement plans, group benefit plans, institutional investors and other arrangements. The Company also provides real estate management services to tenants of the Company’s investment properties.
The Company’s service contracts generally impose single performance obligations, each consisting of a series of similar related services for each customer.
The Company’s performance obligations within service arrangements are generally satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services rendered, measured using an output method. Fees typically include variable consideration and the related revenue is recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty is subsequently resolved.

Table of Contents
Asset based fees vary with asset values of accounts under management, subject to market conditions and investor behaviors beyond the Company’s control. Transaction processing and administrative fees vary with activity volumes, also beyond the Company’s control. Some fees, including distribution fees, are based on account balances and transaction volumes. Fees related to account balances and transaction volumes are measured daily.
Real estate management service fees include fixed portions plus recovery of variable costs of services rendered to tenants. Fees related to services provided are generally recognized as services are rendered, which is when it becomes highly probable that no significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will occur. The Company has determined that its service contracts have no significant financing components because fees are collected monthly. The Company has no significant contract assets or contract liabilities.
The following tables present revenue from service contracts by service lines and reporting segments as disclosed in note 14.

Note 13 Commitments and Contingencies |
(a) Legal proceedings
The Company is regularly involved in legal actions, both as a defendant and as a plaintiff. The legal actions where the Company is a party ordinarily relate to its activities as a provider of insurance protection or wealth management products, reinsurance, or in its capacity as an investment adviser, employer, or taxpayer. Other life insurers and asset managers, operating in the jurisdictions in which the Company does business, have been subject to a wide variety of other types of actions, some of which resulted in substantial judgments or settlements against the defendants; it is possible that the Company may become involved in similar actions in the future. In addition, government and regulatory bodies in Canada, the United States, Asia and other jurisdictions where the Company conducts business regularly make inquiries and, from time to time, require the production of information or conduct examinations concerning the Company’s compliance with, among other things, insurance laws, securities laws, and laws governing the activities of broker-dealers.
In June 2018, a class action was initiated against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of owners of Performance Universal Life (“Perf UL”) policies issued between 2003 and 2010 whose policies were subject to a Cost of Insurance (“COI”) increase announced in 2018.
In addition to the class action, twelve individual lawsuits opposing the Perf UL COI increases were filed; nine in federal court and three in state court. The Company has now resolved litigation with respect to 100% of the filed lawsuits, which represents 84% of the total face amount of policies in the COI-increase block. Litigation remains possible with the final approximately 16% of the total face amount of the COI-increase block.
Subsequent to the resolution of the Perf UL COI-increase lawsuits, in September 2023 an unrelated lawsuit was initiated against the Company in the U.S. District Court of the Southern District of New York as a putative class action on behalf of all current and former owners of universal life insurance policies issued by the Company that state that “cost of insurance rates will be based on future expectations that include taxes.” The Plaintiff’s theory is that the Company impermissibly failed to decrease the COI rates charged to these policy owners after the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2018. It is too early in the litigation to offer any reliable opinion about the scope of the class policies that may be at issue or the likely outcome.

Note 15 Segregated Funds |
The Company manages a number of segregated funds on behalf of policyholders. Policyholders are provided with the opportunity to invest in different categories of segregated funds that hold a range of underlying investments. The underlying investments consist of both individual securities and mutual funds.
Segregated funds underlying investments may be exposed to a variety of financial and other risks. These risks are primarily mitigated by investment guidelines that are actively monitored by professional and experienced portfolio advisors. The Company is not exposed to these risks beyond the liabilities related to the guarantees associated with certain variable life and annuity products included in segregated funds. Accordingly, the Company’s exposure to loss from segregated fund products is limited to the value of these guarantees.
As at June 30, 2024, these guarantees are recorded within the Company’s insurance contract liabilities and amount to $1,823 (December 31, 2023 – $2,675), of which $563 are reinsured (December 31, 2023 – $980). Assets supporting these guarantees, net of reinsurance, are recognized in invested assets according to their investment type. “Insurance contract liabilities for account of segregated fund holders” on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position exclude these guarantees and are considered to be a non-distinct investment component of insurance contract liabilities. The denoted components in the “Risk Management and Risk Factors Update” section of the Second Quarter 2024 MD&A provide information regarding market risk sensitivities associated with variable annuity and segregated fund guarantees.
