Colonial Penn Segment Adjusted EBIT Summarized by In-Force and New Business An analysis of Adjusted EBIT for Colonial Penn, separated between in-force and new business, provides increased clarity for this segment as the vast majority of the costs to generate new business in this segment are not deferrable and Adjusted EBIT will fluctuate based on management's decisions on how much marketing costs to incur in each period. Adjusted EBIT from new business includes pre-tax revenues and expenses associated with new sales of our insurance products during the first year after the sale is completed. Adjusted EBIT from in-force business includes all pre-tax revenues and expenses associated with sales of insurance products that were completed more than one year before the end of the reporting period. The allocation of certain revenues and expenses between new and in-force business is based on estimates, which we believe are reasonable (dollars in millions): Adjusted EBIT from Inforce Business Adjusted EBIT from New Business Adjusted EBIT from Inforce and New Business 2Q18 3Q18 4Q18 1Q19 2Q19 2Q18 3Q18 4Q18 1Q19 2Q19 2Q18 3Q18 4Q18 1Q19 2Q19 Revenues Insurance policy income$ 62.9 $ 63.3 $ 62.9 $ 64.0 $ 64.3 $ 11.6 $ 11.8 $ 12.0 $ 12.7 $ 13.3 $ 74.5 $ 75.1 $ 74.9 $ 76.7 $ 77.6 Net investment income 11.3 11.1 11.2 10.7 10.8 - - - - - 11.3 11.1 11.2 10.7 10.8 Fee revenue and other income 0.4 0.5 0.4 0.5 0.4 - - - - - 0.4 0.5 0.4 0.5 0.4 Total revenues 74.6 74.9 74.5 75.2 75.5 11.6 11.8 12.0 12.7 13.3 86.2 86.7 86.5 87.9 88.8 Benefits and expenses Insurance policy benefits 43.5 42.6 42.8 48.2 44.1 7.1 7.2 7.3 8.0 8.4 50.6 49.8 50.1 56.2 52.5 Interest expense 0.4 0.3 0.4 0.4 0.4 - - - - - 0.4 0.3 0.4 0.4 0.4 Amortization 4.0 4.0 4.8 4.1 3.2 0.1 0.2 0.1 0.4 0.4 4.1 4.2 4.9 4.5 3.6 Other operating costs and expenses 8.6 9.2 8.7 8.3 8.1 17.1 17.1 17.6 19.9 18.4 25.7 26.3 26.3 28.2 26.5 Total benefits and expenses 56.5 56.1 56.7 61.0 55.8 24.3 24.5 25.0 28.3 27.2 80.8 80.6 81.7 89.3 83.0 Adjusted EBIT from Inforce Business$ 18.1 $ 18.8 $ 17.8 $ 14.2 $ 19.7 $ (12.7) $ (12.7) $ (13.0) $ (15.6) $ (13.9) $ 5.4 $ 6.1 $ 4.8 $ (1.4) $ 5.8 CNO Financial Group | Investor Overview 39

Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures The following provides additional information regarding certain non-GAAP measures used in this presentation. A non-GAAP measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. While management believes these measures are useful to enhance understanding and comparability of our financial results, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Additional information concerning non-GAAP measures is included in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are available in the “Investors – SEC Filings” section of CNO’s website, www.CNOinc.com. Operating earnings measures Management believes that an analysis of net income applicable to common stock before net realized investment gains or losses from sales and impairments, net change in market value of investments recognized in earnings, fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities, fair value changes related to the agent deferred compensation plan, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss related to reinsurance transaction, changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and other tax items and other non-operating items consisting primarily of earnings attributable to variable interest entities (“net operating income,” a non-GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the financial performance of the Company and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because the items excluded from net operating income can be affected by events that are unrelated to the Company’s underlying fundamentals.

Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures Book value per diluted share Book value per diluted share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised, restricted stock and performance units were vested and convertible securities were converted. The dilution from options, restricted shares and performance units is calculated using the treasury stock method. Under this method, we assume the proceeds from the exercise of the options (or the unrecognized compensation expense with respect to restricted stock and performance units) will be used to purchase shares of our common stock at the closing market price on the last day of the period. In addition, the calculation of this non-GAAP measure differs from the corresponding GAAP measure because accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has been excluded from the value of capital used to determine this measure. Management believes this non-GAAP measure is useful because it removes the volatility that arises from changes in the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of our investments. Management believes this adjustment to the December 31, 2017 non-GAAP measure is useful because it removes the tax effects stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a result of accounting rules which require the effects of the Tax Reform Act on deferred tax balances to be recorded in earnings, even if the balance was originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures Operating return measures Management believes that an analysis of net income applicable to common stock before net realized investment gains or losses from sales and impairments, net change in market value of investments recognized in earnings, fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities, fair value changes related to the agent deferred compensation plan, loss on extinguishment of debt, loss on reinsurance transaction, changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and other tax items, loss on extinguishment of debt and other non-operating items consisting primarily of earnings attributable to variable interest entities (“net operating income,” a non-GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the financial performance of the Company and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because the items excluded from net operating income can be affected by events that are unrelated to the Company’s underlying fundamentals. Management also believes that an operating return, excluding significant items, is important as the impact of these items enhances the understanding of our operating results. This non-GAAP financial measure also differs from return on equity because accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has been excluded from the value of equity used to determine this ratio. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful because it removes the volatility that arises from changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Such volatility is often caused by changes in the estimated fair value of our investment portfolio resulting from changes in general market interest rates rather than the business decisions made by management. In addition, our equity includes the value of significant net operating loss carryforwards (included in income tax assets). In accordance with GAAP, these assets are not discounted, and accordingly will not provide a return to shareholders (until after it is realized as a reduction to taxes that would otherwise be paid). Management believes that excluding this value from the equity component of this measure enhances the understanding of the effect these non-discounted assets have on operating returns and the comparability of these measures from period-to-period. Operating return measures are used in measuring the performance of our business units and are used as a basis for incentive compensation. CNO Financial Group | Investor Overview 44
