AIG REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2016 RESULTS

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AUTHORIZES REPURCHASE OF $3.0 BILLION OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF AIG COMMON STOCK

NEW YORK, November 2, 2016 – American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today reported net income of $462 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2016, compared to a net loss of $231 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.

Net income during the quarter included after-tax net realized capital losses of $526 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, which largely reflected higher foreign exchange losses related to the British pound weakening following the Brexit vote. The impact to reported book value was immaterial as these losses were largely offset by a corresponding impact on other comprehensive income.

After-tax operating income was $1.1 billion, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2016, up from $691 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter. Operating income for the third quarter of 2016 included a $622 million ($404 million after-tax or $0.37 per diluted share) loss recognition expense in Institutional Markets related to updated mortality assumptions for legacy structured settlements. The assets and liabilities associated with these structured settlements will be reported as part of our Legacy portfolio as presented in our January 26th Strategy Update. The loss recognition expense was partially offset by a pre-tax benefit associated with the third quarter review of actuarial assumptions for the Consumer Life and Retirement businesses of $238 million ($154 million after-tax or $0.14 per diluted share).

“We continue to execute on the strategic initiatives announced in January,” said Peter D. Hancock, AIG President and Chief Executive Officer. “The strategic divestitures that we announced this quarter, our portfolio management decisions, actions to run-off the legacy portfolio and capital allocation all exemplify our guiding principle of building economic value. We are successfully shaping and sculpting our company to be a leaner and more focused insurer. We remain committed to our 2017 financial targets, are ahead of plan in expense management, and continue to target a 6 point reduction in our Commercial accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, despite volatile quarterly results.”

Noteworthy Items

Expanding ROE - Return on Equity (ROE) was 2.1%, up 300 bps from the prior-year quarter. ROE reflects the elevated net realized capital losses discussed above. Normalized ROE improved to 7.1% from 5.9% in the prior-year quarter. Both metrics benefited from

the active return of capital to shareholders and operating margin improvement. ROE benefited from higher returns on alternative investments which exceeded return expectations. Normalized ROE also reflected the seasonally higher third quarter expected catastrophe losses.

Reducing expenses - For the first nine months of 2016, general operating and other expenses declined 12% from the prior-year period. General operating expenses, operating basis, excluding the impact of foreign exchange and the reduction in general operating expenses associated with the sale of the Advisor Group, declined 10% from the prior-year nine month period. Lower employee-related expenses, rationalized employee benefits and professional fee reductions drove the improvement in our Commercial and Consumer businesses. Pre-tax restructuring charges during the quarter of $210 million primarily related to our ongoing efficiency program.

Executing strategic transactions - AIG continued to move forward on its action plan for managing its Legacy portfolio, a key contributor to AIG’s capital return target. AIG entered into a reinsurance agreement involving certain whole life and universal life businesses of one of its domestic life insurance subsidiaries which resulted in a $1.0 billion distribution of excess statutory capital to AIG Parent. In addition, monetizations of Legacy assets totaled $900 million in the quarter and $5.2 billion for the last four quarters, consistent with AIG’s continuing strategy to focus capital on core operations while optimizing the value realized from the transfer or sale of assets and liabilities.

Value based divestitures - AIG continued to move forward on its strategic plan to further focus and streamline AIG’s global insurance operations by agreeing to sell its 100% interest in United Guaranty Corporation and certain related affiliates (collectively, UGC or United Guaranty) and its 20% interest in Ascot Underwriting Holdings Ltd. and all of its interest in the related syndicate-funding subsidiary Ascot Corporate Name Ltd. In August, AIG sold its 95.3% controlling interest in NSM Insurance Group. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, AIG entered into an agreement with Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited to sell certain Latin American subsidiary operations, insurance operations in Turkey and the renewal rights for the portfolio of local business written by AIG’s operations in Eastern Europe.

Actively returning capital to shareholders - Total capital returned to shareholders was $2.6 billion in the third quarter of 2016 and included $2.3 billion of repurchases of AIG Common Stock and $338 million in shareholder dividends. From the end of the third quarter through November 2, 2016, AIG repurchased an additional $946 million of AIG Common Stock resulting in a total year to date capital return of $10.8 billion. On November 2, 2016, AIG’s Board of Directors authorized an additional increase to its previous repurchase authorization of AIG Common Stock of $3.0 billion, resulting in an aggregate remaining authorization on such date of approximately $4.4 billion. On November 2, 2016, AIG’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on AIG Common Stock of $0.32 per share, payable on December 22, 2016 to shareholders of record on December 8, 2016.

Quarterly Commercial Insurance loss trends impacted by program business and property volatility The Commercial Insurance loss ratio of 77.7 reflected higher catastrophe losses and unfavorable prior year loss reserve development net of premium adjustments, which contributed 12.6 points. Unfavorable prior year loss development of $306 million was primarily driven by our U.S. program business which writes both casualty and property lines via MGAs and for which the third party administrators handle over half of the claims activity. Notably we experienced higher than expected loss emergence in the most recent calendar year from a small subset of these programs. The Commercial accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, improved 1.9 points from the same period last year largely due to continued remediation efforts, pricing strategy and reinsurance in Casualty.

SEGMENT RESULTS

All operating segment comparisons that follow are to the third quarter of 2015 unless otherwise noted.

Beginning in the third quarter of 2016, in order to align our financial reporting with the manner in which our chief operating decision makers review the businesses to assess performance and make decisions about resources to be allocated, United Guaranty and Institutional Markets are presented in the Corporate and Other category for all periods presented. As a result, Commercial Insurance operations now consist of our commercial property and casualty business.

As a result of the transaction agreement to sell 100% of AIG’s interest in UGC, the associated assets and liabilities of UGC have been classified as held-for sale at September 30, 2016.

In the second quarter of 2015, a United Guaranty subsidiary and certain of AIG’s property casualty companies entered into a 50% quota share arrangement whereby the United Guaranty subsidiary (1) ceded 50 % of the risk relating to policies written in 2014 that were current as of January 1, 2015 and (2) ceded 50% of the risk relating to all policies written in 2015 and 2016, each in exchange for a 30% ceding commission and reimbursements of 50% of the losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred on covered policies. Beginning in the third quarter of 2016, the effects of these intercompany reinsurance arrangements are included in the results of Commercial Insurance and Corporate and Other for all periods presented. Previously, these arrangements were eliminated for purposes of segment reporting.

Prior periods have been revised to conform to the current period presentation.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

Commercial Insurance pre-tax operating income increased to $729 million, primarily reflecting the higher returns on alternative investment income, and an increase in the fair market value of assets accounted for under the fair value option, partially offset by an increase in underwriting loss in the current quarter driven by higher catastrophe losses and higher net adverse prior year loss reserve development. The current quarter loss ratio included net adverse prior year loss reserve development, net of return premiums of $306 million primarily from program business within Specialty, partially offset by favorable Property development. In addition, catastrophe losses increased to $253 million from $88 million in the prior-year quarter. Pre-tax operating income also benefited from an improvement in accident year losses, a lower net loss reserve discount charge and lower expenses.

The improvement in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, reflected the continued execution of our strategy to enhance risk selection, improve underwriting discipline and manage exposures, including the use of reinsurance, and lower overall severe losses. The accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, improved in Casualty, reflecting the non-renewal of certain underperforming classes of business, as well as the effect of reinsurance. Property improved due to lower severe losses. These declines in the accident year losses were partially offset by an increase in Specialty and competitive market conditions.

The expense ratio declined 1.9 points driven by decreases in both acquisition ratio and the general operating expense ratio. The acquisition ratio declined by 1.0 points, particularly in Casualty, primarily driven by lower net commission expenses reflecting the effect of reinsurance arrangements. The General operating expense ratio declined 0.9 points due to lower employee-related costs resulting from ongoing actions to streamline our management structure and general cost containment measures commenced in 2015.

In line with our planned portfolio optimization efforts, net premiums written decreased 17%. This decrease was primarily due to the continued execution of our strategy to enhance risk selection in our Casualty and Property product portfolios, the non-renewal of certain underperforming classes of business, the increased use of reinsurance, and adherence to our underwriting discipline in competitive market conditions.

Retirement pre-tax operating income increased to $1.1 billion, primarily due to a higher net positive adjustment from the review and update of actuarial assumptions and improved performance from alternative investments in hedge funds. The update of actuarial assumptions resulted in a net positive adjustment to pre-tax operating income of $322 million, primarily due to lower surrender assumptions in Fixed Annuities, compared to a $140 million net positive adjustment in the prior-year quarter. The increase in pre-tax operating income compared to the prior-year quarter also reflected the impact of better equity market performance on policyholder benefit expense and DAC amortization, and higher policy fees from growth in assets under management.

Premiums grew due to higher immediate annuity premiums in the Fixed Annuities product line. Premiums and deposits declined to $5.2 billion, which reflected an industry-wide decline in variable annuities as well as our continued focus on disciplined pricing, resulting in lower sales in both Retirement Income Solutions and Fixed Annuities. These declines, which drove a decrease in net flows from the prior-year quarter, were partially offset by higher sales of Retail Mutual Funds and lower Group Retirement surrenders.

Life pre-tax operating income increased to $98 million, primarily due to a lower net negative adjustment from the review and update of actuarial assumptions, higher net investment income from alternative investments in hedge funds and yield enhancements and lower domestic general operating expenses. Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, growth in premiums and in premiums and deposits was 14% and 10%, respectively, both of which were principally driven by growth in international life and health sales. The update of actuarial assumptions resulted in a net negative adjustment to pre-tax operating income of $84 million, primarily due to a refinement to reserves for universal life insurance with secondary guarantees due to lower assumed surrender rates, compared to a similar charge of $157 million in the prior-year quarter.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

Personal Insurance pre-tax operating income grew to $178 million, reflecting improved underwriting results. The lower combined ratio was principally driven by an improvement in the expense ratio.

The increase in the loss ratio reflected higher accident year losses and lower net favorable prior year loss reserve development, partially offset by reduced catastrophe losses. The increase in the accident year loss ratio, as adjusted, was primarily driven by a higher number of large but not severe losses particularly in the U.S. business.

The improvement in the acquisition ratio reflected lower direct marketing expenses. The decrease in the general operating expense ratio primarily reflected lower employee-related expenses arising from organizational realignment activities together with lower strategic investment expenditures.

Net premiums written decreased compared to the prior-year quarter. Excluding the effects of foreign exchange, net premiums written decreased by 6% primarily in Accident and Health, reflecting underwriting actions to strengthen our portfolio and maintain pricing discipline.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

Corporate and Other reported a pre-tax operating loss of $522 million primarily due to a $622 million loss recognition expense in Institutional Markets based on mortality experience studies that indicated increased longevity, particularly on disabled lives representing a legacy block of structured settlements underwritten pre-2010. This legacy block accounted for over 80% of this loss recognition expense and will be included as part of our Legacy portfolio at year-end. Corporate and Other results also reflected fair value gains on our People’s Insurance Company (Group) of China Limited investment and an increase in Income from other assets, net. In addition, the prior-year quarter included a pension curtailment credit of $175 million in Corporate general operating expenses.

COMMENT ON REGULATION G

Throughout this press release, including the financial highlights, AIG presents its financial condition and results of operations in the way it believes will be most meaningful and representative of its business results. Some of the measurements AIG uses are “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. GAAP is the acronym for “accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.” The non-GAAP financial measures AIG presents may not be comparable to similarly-named measures reported by other companies. The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in accordance with Regulation G are included within the relevant tables or in the Third Quarter 2016 Financial Supplement available in the Investor Information section of AIG’s website, www.aig.com.

Book Value Per Common Share Excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI), Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) and Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and DTA and Including Dividend Growth are used to show the amount of AIG’s net worth on a per-share basis. AIG believes these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. These measures also eliminate the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. AIG excludes deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in Book Value Per Common Share. Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, by Total common shares outstanding. Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, by Total common shares outstanding. Book Value Per Common Share Excluding AOCI and DTA and including dividend growth is derived by dividing Total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, and including growth in quarterly dividends above $0.125 per share to shareholders, by Total common shares outstanding.

Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and DTA are used to show the rate of return on shareholders’ equity. AIG believes these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, including changes in fair value of its available for sale securities portfolio, foreign currency translation adjustments and U.S. tax attribute deferred tax assets. These measures also eliminate the asymmetrical impact resulting from changes in fair value of AIG’s available for sale securities portfolio wherein there is largely no offsetting impact for certain related insurance liabilities. AIG excludes deferred tax assets representing U.S. tax attributes related to net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits as they have not yet been utilized. Amounts for interim periods are estimates based on projections of full-year attribute utilization. As net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credits are utilized, the portion of the DTA utilized is included in Return on Equity. Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI is derived by dividing actual or annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding average AOCI. Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by dividing actual or annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding average AOCI and DTA.

Normalized Return on Equity, Excluding AOCI and DTA (Normalized ROE) further adjusts Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income, Excluding AOCI and DTA for the effects of certain volatile or market-related items. AIG believes this measure is useful to investors because it presents the trends in AIG’s consolidated return on equity without the impact of certain items that can experience volatility in AIG’s short-term results. Normalized Return on Equity, Excluding AOCI and DTA is derived by excluding the following tax adjusted effects from Return on Equity – After-tax Operating Income, Excluding AOCI and DTA: the difference between actual and expected (i) catastrophe losses, (ii) alternative investment returns, and (iii) Direct Investment book (DIB) and Global Capital Markets (GCM) returns; fair value changes on PICC investments; update of actuarial assumptions; net reserve discount change; Life insurance incurred but not reported death claim charge; and prior year loss reserve development.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

AIG uses the following operating performance measures because it believes they enhance the understanding of the underlying profitability of continuing operations and trends of AIG’s business segments. AIG believes they also allow for more meaningful comparisons with AIG’s insurance competitors. When AIG uses these measures, reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measure are provided on a consolidated basis.

After-tax operating income attributable to AIG is derived by excluding the following items from net income attributable to AIG. These items generally fall into one or more of the following broad categories: legacy matters having no relevance to AIG’s current businesses or operating performance; adjustments to enhance transparency to the underlying economics of transactions; and measures that AIG believes to be common to the industry. For example, certain ratios and other metrics described below exclude: income or loss from discontinued operations; income and loss from divested businesses (including gain on the sale of International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) and certain post-acquisition transaction expenses incurred by AerCap Holdings N.V. (AerCap) in connection with its acquisition of ILFC and the difference between expensing AerCap’s maintenance rights assets over the remaining lease term as compared to the remaining economic life of the related aircraft and related tax effects); gain on sale of NSM Insurance Group (NSM) and AIG Advisor Group; legacy tax adjustments primarily related to certain changes in uncertain tax positions and other tax adjustments; non-operating litigation reserves and settlements; reserve development related to non-operating run-off insurance business; restructuring and other costs related to initiatives designed to reduce operating expenses, improve efficiency and simplify AIG’s organization; deferred income tax valuation allowance releases and charges; changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits; changes in benefit reserves and deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC), value of business acquired (VOBA), and sales inducement assets (SIA) related to net realized capital gains and losses; other income and expense — net, related to Corporate and Other runoff insurance lines; loss on extinguishment of debt; net realized capital gains and losses; and non-qualifying derivative hedging activities, excluding net realized capital gains and losses. See page 15 for the reconciliation of Net income attributable to AIG to After-tax operating income attributable to AIG.

Operating revenue excludes Net realized capital gains (losses), income from non-operating litigation settlements (included in Other income for GAAP purposes) and changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits (included in Net investment income for GAAP purposes).

General operating expenses, operating basis (GOE), is derived by making the following adjustments to general operating and other expenses: include (i) certain loss adjustment expenses, reported as policyholder benefits and losses incurred and (ii) certain investment and other expenses reported as net investment income, and exclude (i) advisory fee expenses, (ii) non-deferrable insurance commissions, (iii) direct marketing and acquisition expenses, net of deferrals, (iv) non-operating litigation reserves and (v) other expense related to a retroactive reinsurance agreement. AIG also derives General operating expense savings on a gross basis, which represents changes during the period in General operating expenses, operating basis, before the effect of additional investments made during the period. AIG uses general operating expenses, operating basis, because it believes it provides a more meaningful indication of its ordinary course of business operating costs.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

AIG uses the following operating performance measures within its Commercial Insurance and Consumer Insurance reportable segments as well as Corporate and Other.

Commercial Insurance; Consumer Insurance: Personal Insurance; Corporate and Other: United Guaranty

Pre-tax operating income: includes both underwriting income and loss and net investment income, but excludes net realized capital gains and losses, other income and expense — net, gain on the sale of NSM and non-operating litigation reserves and settlements. Underwriting income and loss is derived by reducing net premiums earned by losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred, acquisition expenses and general operating expenses.

Ratios: AIG, along with most property and casualty insurance companies, uses the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the combined ratio as measures of underwriting performance. These ratios are relative measurements that describe, for every $100 of net premiums earned, the amount of losses and loss adjustment expenses, and the amount of other underwriting expenses that would be incurred. A combined ratio of less than 100 indicates underwriting income and a combined ratio of over 100 indicates an underwriting loss. AIG’s ratios are calculated using the relevant information calculated under GAAP, and thus may not be comparable to similar ratios calculated for regulatory reporting purposes. The underwriting environment varies across countries and products, as does the degree of litigation activity, all of which affect such ratios. In addition, investment returns, local taxes, cost of capital, regulation, product type and competition can have an effect on pricing and consequently on profitability as reflected in underwriting income and associated ratios.

Accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted: both the accident year loss and combined ratios, as adjusted, exclude catastrophe losses and related reinstatement premiums, prior year development, net of premium adjustments, and the impact of reserve discounting. Natural catastrophe losses are generally weather or seismic events having a net impact in excess of $10 million each. Catastrophes also include certain man-made events, such as terrorism and civil disorders that meet the $10 million threshold. AIG believes the as adjusted ratios are meaningful measures of its underwriting results on an on-going basis as they exclude catastrophes and the impact of reserve discounting which are outside of management’s control. AIG also excludes prior year development to provide transparency related to current accident year results.

Consumer Insurance: Retirement and Life; Corporate and Other: Institutional Markets

Pre-tax operating income is derived by excluding the following items from pre-tax income: changes in fair value of securities used to hedge guaranteed living benefits; net realized capital gains and losses; gain on the sale of AIG Advisor Group; changes in benefit reserves and DAC, VOBA and SIA related to net realized capital gains and losses; and non-operating litigation reserves and settlements.

Premiums and deposits includes direct and assumed amounts received and earned on traditional life insurance policies, group benefit policies and life-contingent payout annuities, as well as deposits received on universal life, investment-type annuity contracts and mutual funds.

Results from discontinued operations are excluded from all of these measures.

Financial highlights - notes

 

(a) For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, because we reported a net loss, all common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted shares and diluted per share amounts. However, because we reported after-tax operating income, the calculation of after-tax operating income per diluted share includes 40,356,170 dilutive shares.
(b) Diluted shares in the diluted EPS calculation represent basic shares for the three-months ended September 30, 2015 due to the net loss in that period.
(c) Computed as Annualized net income (loss) attributable to AIG divided by average AIG shareholders’ equity. Equity includes AOCI and DTA.
(d) Computed as Annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG divided by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI. Equity includes DTA.
(e) Computed as Annualized after-tax operating income attributable to AIG divided by average AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA.
(f) Represents total AIG shareholders’ equity divided by Total common shares outstanding.
(g) Represents total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI, divided by Total common shares outstanding.
(h) Represents total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, divided by Total common shares outstanding.
(i) Represents total AIG shareholders’ equity, excluding AOCI and DTA, and including growth in quarterly dividends above $0.125 per share to shareholders, divided by Total common shares outstanding.

AIG BOARD OF DIRECTORS AUTHORIZES REPURCHASE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF AIG COMMON STOCK, DECLARES COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND

NEW YORK, November 2, 2016 – American International Group, Inc. (NYSE: AIG) today announced the following actions taken by its Board of Directors:

 

    Authorized the repurchase of additional shares of AIG Common Stock with an aggregate purchase price of up to $3.0 billion. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, AIG repurchased approximately $8.5 billion of AIG Common Stock and $263 million in warrants to purchase shares of AIG Common Stock (the “Warrants”), pursuant to prior authorizations from the Board of Directors. AIG repurchased an additional approximately $946 million of AIG Common Stock through November 2, 2016. AIG’s aggregate remaining share repurchase authorization, inclusive of today’s announced $3.0 billion authorization, is approximately $4.4 billion. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, private purchases, through forward, derivative, accelerated repurchase or automatic repurchase transactions, or otherwise (including through the purchase of warrants).

 

    Declared a quarterly dividend of $0.32 per share on AIG Common Stock, par value $2.50 per share. The dividend is payable on December 22, 2016, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 8, 2016.

“We are pleased to increase AIG’s share repurchase authorization by $3.0 billion and pay a quarterly dividend,” said Douglas M. Steenland, Chairman of the Board of Directors of AIG. “Year-to-date, the company has returned $10.8 billion to shareholders, including share and warrant repurchases and dividends paid. AIG’s Management and Board of Directors remain focused on returning capital to shareholders, as well as building value through sustainable growth in its businesses.”

This dividend will result in an adjustment to the exercise price of the outstanding Warrants (CUSIP number 026874156) and an adjustment to the number of shares of AIG Common Stock receivable upon Warrant exercise. The exact adjustments, determined by a formula set forth in the Warrant Agreement, will become calculable on or around December 5, 2016, the day prior to the ex-dividend date. Once the adjustments are determined, AIG will announce the actual adjustment to the Warrant exercise price and shares receivable. Further information on the Warrants and the adjustments is available in the Investor Relations section of AIG’s website.

Certain statements in this press release constitute forward-looking statements. These statements are not historical facts but instead represent only AIG’s belief regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside AIG’s control. It is possible that actual results will differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results indicated in these


statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those in the forward-looking statements are discussed throughout AIG’s periodic filings with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
