Lincoln Financial Group
Reporting Changes
2001

Below are the reporting changes that have resulted from the changes to
the segment reporting structure of Lincoln National Corporation and
changes in the inter-segment investment management asset management
fees.  All noted changes have been reflected in the restated Statistical
Report for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2000.  A
reconciliation of the changes by segment is located on pages 33 and 34
of the Statistical Report. The segments have been restated for the years
1995-2000.

1. The management of the First Penn-Annuities line of business has been
moved to the Annuities segment from the Life Insurance segment.

2. The wholesale distribution operation ("Lincoln Financial
Distributors") is now reported in Other Operations.  Previously this
distribution system was reported as part of the Life Insurance and
Investment Management segments.

3. Prior to 2001, the general account assets and certain separate
account assets of LFG managed by Lincoln Investment Management, now known
as Delaware Lincoln Investment Advisers ("DLIA"), for LNC's U.S. based
insurance operations was generally priced on an "at cost" basis.
Effective January 1, 2001, substantially all of these internal
investment management services will be priced on an arms-length "profit"
basis.  The results of DLIA are included in the Investment Management
segement.  The following segments are affected by this change:
Annuities, Life Insurance, Reinsurance, Investment Management and Other
Operations.  The fee revenue is reported on the "Investment Advisory
Fees" line for the Investment Management Segment and the corresponding
expense is reported on the "Net Investment Income" line for the other
business segments.

(1) Fourth quarter and full year 1999 income from operations and net income
include a charge of $40.4 million for Lincoln's participation in workers
compensation carve-out business.  Fourth quarter and full year 1997 income
from operations and net income include a change in estimate for personal
accident programs of $113.7 million.  Also, 1997 includes reserve
strengthening for the disability income business.

(2) Exited Businesses Under Management include disability income, HMO
excess-of-loss, carrier medical, personal accident and Lincoln's investment
in Seguros Serfin Lincoln (through first quarter of 2000).

(3) LNC manages the relative mixture of debt and equity capital at the
consolidated level.  Because consolidated debt is not allocated in arriving
at the reported return on capital for LNC's business segments, the return
on capital calculation differs from a return on equity calculation.  For
this business segment, allocating consolidated leverage would result in a
higher return on equity as compared to the return on capital reported
above.

(1) Fourth quarter 1999 income from operations and net income include a charge of $40.4 million for Lincoln's
participation in workers compensation carve-out business.  Fourth quarter and full year 1997 income from
operations and net income include a change in estimate for personal accident programs of $113.7 million.

(2) Exited Businesses Under Management include disability income, HMO excess-of-loss, carrier medical, personal
accident and Lincoln's investment in Seguros Serfin Lincoln (through first quarter of 2000).

(3) LNC manages the relative mixture of debt and equity capital at the consolidated level.  Because consolidated
debt is not allocated in arriving at the reported return on capital for LNC's business segments, the return
on capital calculation differs from a return on equity calculation.  For this business segment, allocating
consolidated leverage would result in a higher return on equity as compared to the return on capital reported
above.

(1) LNC manages the relative mixture of debt and equity capital at the consolidated level.  Because consolidated debt
is not allocated in arriving at the reported return on capital for LNC's business segments, the return on capital
calculation differs from a return on equity calculation.  For this business segment, allocating consolidated
leverage would result in a lower return on equity as compared to the return on capital reported above.

[1] Stock prices shown above include 2-for-1 splits in June 1993,
    and June 1999

[2] Indicated dividend divided by net income

[3] Indicated dividend divided by the closing price

[4] Equity used in calculation assumes securities at cost.  Minority
    interest-preferred securities of subsidiary companies (hybrid
    securities) are considered 50% debt and 50% equity.

    Return on Equity/Return on Capital:
    In order to accommodate the various perspectives, LNC presents
    three separate Return on Equity numbers on pages 2 and 3 of this
    Statistical Report.  "Net Income Divided by Average
    Shareholders' Equity" tends to fluctuate from period to period
    due to the realization of gains on the sale of investments or
    subsidiaries during one period and the planned generation of
    losses in another period for purposes of recovering Federal
    Taxes previously paid.  "Income from Operations Divided by
    Average Shareholders' Equity" is less volatile but leaves out an
    important element of earnings for a company that has a long-term
    goal of enhancing shareholder value by realizing investment
    gains.  "Adjusted Income from Operations Divided by Adjusted
    Shareholders' Equity" amortizes: 1) realized security gains on
    investments  2)  unrealized gains on equity securities over
    approximately five years and eliminates amortization of goodwill
    related to acquisitions.

    Return on capital measures the effectiveness of LNC's use of its
    total capital, which is made up of equity, debt and hybrid
    securities. Return on capital is calculated by dividing income
    from operations (after adding back after-tax interest expense)
    by average capital. The difference between return on capital and
    return on equity presents the effect of leveraging on LNC's
    consolidated results.
