| Computations | | | | |
| • The quarterly financial information for the current year may not sum to the corresponding year-to-date amount as both are rounded to millions. | |
| • The financial ratios reported herein are calculated using whole dollars instead of dollars rounded to millions. | |
| • We exclude deferred units of LNC stock that are antidilutive from our diluted earnings per share calculation. In addition, for any period where a net loss or adjusted loss from operations is experienced, | |
| shares used in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares, as the use of diluted shares would result in a lower loss per share. | |
| • Return on equity (“ROE”) measures how efficiently we generate profits from the resources provided by our net assets. ROE is calculated by dividing annualized net income (loss) (or adjusted income (loss) | |
| from operations) by average equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”). Management evaluates consolidated ROE by both including and excluding the effect | |
| of average goodwill. | |
| • Book value per share, excluding AOCI, is calculated by dividing stockholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, by common shares outstanding. We provide book value per share, excluding AOCI, to enable | |
| investors to analyze the amount of our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. Management believes book value per share excluding AOCI is useful to investors because | |
| it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. | |
| • Pre-tax net margin is calculated by dividing adjusted income (loss) from operations before taxes by net revenue, which is defined as total adjusted operating revenues less interest credited. | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
