(1) Formation of Genworth and Basis of Presentation
Genworth Holdings, Inc. (“Genworth Holdings”) (formerly known as Genworth Financial, Inc.) was incorporated in Delaware in 2003 in preparation for an initial public offering (“IPO”) of Genworth’s common stock, which was completed on May 28, 2004. On April 1, 2013, Genworth Holdings completed a holding company reorganization pursuant to which Genworth Holdings became a direct, 100% owned subsidiary of a new public holding company that it had formed. The new public holding company was incorporated in Delaware on December 5, 2012, in connection with the reorganization, and was renamed Genworth Financial, Inc. (“Genworth Financial”) upon the completion of the reorganization.
On October 21, 2016, Genworth
F
inancial entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Asia Pacific Global Capital Co., Ltd. (“Parent”), a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China and a subsidiary of China Oceanwide Holdings Group Co., Ltd., a limited liability company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (together with its affiliates, “China Oceanwide”), and Asia Pacific Global Capital USA Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance USA Holdings LLC (“Asia Pacific Insurance”), which is a Delaware limited liability company and owned by China Oceanwide, pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into Genworth Financial with Genworth Financial surviving the merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific Insurance. China Oceanwide has agreed to acquire all of our outstanding common stock for a total transaction value of approximately $2.7 billion, or $5.43 per share in cash. At a special meeting held on March 7, 2017, Genworth Financial’s stockholders voted on and approved a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. The closing of the transaction remains subject to other closing conditions.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include on a consolidated basis the accounts of Genworth Financial and the affiliate companies in which it holds a majority voting interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
References to “Genworth Financial,” “Genworth,” the “Company,” “we” or “our” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto are, unless the context otherwise requires, to Genworth Financial, Inc. on a consolidated basis.
In the third quarter of 2020, we revised the product descriptions in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment to conform with industry convention and certain regulatory definitions. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
We operate our business through the following four operating segments:
 
 
 
U.S. Mortgage Insurance.
In the United States, we offer mortgage insurance products predominantly insuring prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans at specified coverage percentages (“primary mortgage insurance”). We also selectively enter into insurance transactions with lenders and investors, under which we insure a portfolio of loans at or after origination (“pool mortgage insurance”).
 
 
 
Australia Mortgage Insurance.
In Australia, we offer lender mortgage insurance products which predominantly insure prime-based, individually underwritten residential mortgage loans (“flow mortgage insurance”) and selectively provide mortgage insurance on a bulk basis (“bulk mortgage insurance”) that aids in the sale of mortgages to the capital markets and helps lenders manage capital and risk.

U.S. Life Insurance.
We offer long-term care insurance products as well as service traditional life insurance and fixed annuity products in the United States.
 
 
 
Runoff.
The Runoff segment includes the results of products which have not been actively sold since 2011, but we continue to service our existing blocks of business. These products primarily include variable annuity, variable life insurance and corporate-owned life insurance, as well as funding agreements.
In addition to our
four
operating business segments, we also have Corporate and Other activities which include debt financing expenses that are incurred at the Genworth Holdings level, unallocated corporate income and expenses, eliminations of inter-segment transactions and the results of other businesses that are managed outside of our operating segments, including certain smaller international mortgage insurance businesses and discontinued operations.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. In addition, potential impacts, risks and uncertainties of the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) may include investment valuations and impairments, commercial mortgage loan restructurings, deferred acquisition cost or intangible assets impairments or the acceleration of amortization, deferred tax asset recoverability and increases to insurance reserves, including higher claims reserves in our mortgage insurance businesses, among other matters. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Each reporting period, we assess our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued. As of September 30, 2020, Genworth Holdings has $740 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. For the quarterly period ended September 30, 2020, our evaluation of our ability to meet our obligations included the following contractual obligations due within one year from the issue date of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein:
 
   
Genworth Holdings has $338 million of its 7.20% senior notes maturing in February 2021 and $659 million of its 7.625% senior note
s
maturing in September 2021, excluding deferred amounts. We are currently in compliance with the terms of our debt agreements and interest payments on our senior notes are forecasted to be $144 million for the next twelve months. See note 9 for additional details on our long-term borrowings.
 
 
 
As part of the settlement agreement reached in July 2020 regarding the case titled
AXA S.A. v. Genworth Financial International Holdings, LLC et al.,
we issued a secured promissory note to AXA S.A. (“AXA”) that is due in 2022. Under the settlement, certain cash flows to Genworth Holdings, including dividends and capital raises, above defined thresholds must be paid to AXA until the promissory note is fully repaid. In addition, over the next year, we expect to pay AXA approximately $45 million consisting
of interest on the promissory note, assuming we do not make any pre-payments,
10

(Unaudited)
 
 
and a one-time payment on an unrelated liability associated with underwriting losses on a product sold by a distributor in our former lifestyle protection insurance business. See note 12 for additional details on the case. See note 14 for additional details related to the sale of our former lifestyle protection insurance business and amounts recorded related to discontinued operations.
We also evaluate other conditions and events and their relative significance in relation to our ability to meet our obligations. For example, Genworth Holdings expects to receive intercompany tax payments generated primarily from realized gains in the third quarter of 2020, among other transactions, and is expecting additional intercompany tax payments in future periods. In addition, we are exposed to risks associated with COVID-19, which has disrupted the global economy and financial markets, business operations, and consumer behavior and confidence.
 
   
Due to higher delinquencies and the impact to capital levels resulting from COVID-19, we do not expect to receive further dividends in 2020 from our mortgage insurance subsidiaries. In 2021, until the secured promissory note to AXA is paid, dividends above $
50
million from our U.S. mortgage insurance subsidiaries are subject to mandatory prepayment conditions.
 In addition, the receipt of dividends 
and sale proceeds above certain thresholds from ou
r
Australian mort
gage insurance business are also subject to mandatory
 prepayment conditions.
 
   
Due to the uncertain macroeconomic conditions surrounding COVID-19, on September 30, 2020, Genworth and China Oceanwide agreed to a sixteenth waiver and agreement extending the merger deadline to no later than November 30, 2020. However, the consummation of this transaction is dependent on steps outside of our control; accordingly, the associated post-closing capital contributions from China Oceanwide have not been included in this evaluation.
Absent accessing additional liquidity through third party sources and/or the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, Genworth Holdings expects to have a cash shortfall of approximately $215 million which raises doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year. While conditions and events occurring and expected to occur raise doubt about our ability to meet our financial obligations for the next year, management’s plans alleviate this doubt.
Management 
believes that its
plans
,
along with existing cash and cash equivalents, will provide Genworth Holdings sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations and maintain business operations for one year from the issue date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we successfully executed a debt financing through our U.S. mortgage insurance business, a transaction we deemed probable in our previous assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern. Because of the uncertainty regarding the completion of the China Oceanwide transaction, we are actively taking steps toward raising capital by preparing for a possible public offering of our U.S. mortgage insurance business, subject to market conditions. In addition to a partial sale of our U.S. mortgage insurance business through a public offering, we are also evaluating the possibility of the issuance of convertible, equity-linked securities or another transaction, prior to our senior notes maturing in September 2021. We believe an equity transaction involving our U.S. mortgage insurance business, if needed, is probable of being effectively executed given the value of the U.S. mortgage insurance business, the healthy conditions of the relevant markets, historical investor interest and our successful history of similar transactions, among other factors. Our outside
financial
advisors agree with our assessment based on current conditions.
The impact of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic is very difficult to predict. Its related outcomes and impact on our business and the capital markets, and our ability to raise capital will depend on the length of the pandemic, economic impacts of social, global and political influences, and the shape of the economic recovery, among other

factors and uncertainties. While these risks exist, we believe the execution of our plan will provide sufficient funds to meet our obligations for one year following the issuance of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
(2) Accounting Changes
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
On January 1, 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance related to disclosure requirements for defined benefit plans as part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) disclosure framework project. The guidance adds, eliminates and modifies certain disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the retrospective method, which did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance related to fair value disclosure requirements as part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project. The guidance adds, eliminates and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The guidance includes new disclosure requirements related to changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the prospective method for disclosures related to changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty and the retrospective method for all other disclosures. This accounting guidance did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements but impacted our fair value disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to reference rate reform, which was effective for us on January 1, 2020. The guidance provides temporary guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform, which includes the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). This new guidance provides optional practical expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to investments, derivatives or other transactions affected by reference rate reform such as those that impact the assessment of derivative hedge effectiveness and contract modifications, to include continuing hedge accounting when certain critical terms of a hedging relationship change and modifying certain effectiveness assessments to exclude certain potential sources of ineffectiveness. In addition to the optional practical expedients, th
e
 guidance includes a general principle that permits an entity to consider contract modifications due to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. We adopted this guidance prospectively and it did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. However, the amendments in this guidance may be elected over time through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur and therefore, this guidance may impact our procedures, including our process for assessing the effectiveness of our cash flow hedging relationships, determined on an individual hedge basis, as we implement measures to transition away from LIBO
R.
On January 1, 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance related to accounting for credit losses on financial instruments. The guidance requires entities to recognize an allowance equal to its estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and applies to most financial instruments not measured at fair value, which primarily
 
12

Table of Contents
GENWORTH FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
includes our commercial mortgage loans, bank loan investments and reinsurance recoverables. The new guidance also requires the recognition of an allowance for expected credit losses as a liability in our consolidated balance sheet for off-balance sheet credit exposures, including commitments to fund bank loan investments, private placement investments and commercial mortgage loans. The new guidance did not have a significant impact on other assets not measured at fair value. The FASB also issued an amendment to the guidance allowing entities to irrevocably elect the fair value option on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, which we did not elect.
For our commercial mortgage loans, we determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses utilizing an analytical model that provides various loss scenarios based on historical experience adjusted for current events, trends, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that result in a loss in the loan portfolio over the estimated life of the loans. We revert to historical credit loss experience for periods beyond forecasts that are reasonable and supportable. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective basis with consideration for debt service coverage ratio, debt-to-value, property-type and geographic location. Key inputs into the analytical model include exposure, weighted-average life, return, historical loss rates and forecast scenarios. Actual amounts realized over time could differ from the amounts estimated for the allowance for credit losses reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Commercial mortgage loans are written off against the allowance to the extent principal or interest is deemed uncollectible. Accrued interest related to commercial mortgage loans is included in accrued investment income in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and had a carrying value of $24 million as of September 30, 2020. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest as uncollectible accrued interest related to our commercial mortgage loans are written off after 90 days and once collectability is determined to be uncertain and not probable. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses).
We adopted the guidance related to our investments carried at amortized cost using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $23 million, net of deferred taxes of $6 million, for commercial mortgage loans and bank loan investments, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings. See note 4 for additional disclosures related to commercial mortgage loans. We adopted the guidance related to our off-balance sheet credit exposures using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $1 million, included in other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings.
The allowance for credit losses for reinsurance recoverables is evaluated based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events and reasonable and supportable forecasts from both internal and external sources. The allowance is measured by reinsurer, taking into consideration the reinsured product type and collateral type, and is calculated based on an externally reported probability of default corresponding to the reinsurer’s credit rating and the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us for ceded claims on the underlying policies. Our estimate of the allowance reflects consideration for collateral securing the reinsurance agreements and expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off and expected to be charged off. We also consider other credit risk factors, including, among other factors, the historical frequency and severity of the associated insurance claims, aging of recoverables and regulatory, legal and economic factors, to determine if an additional incremental allowance for credit losses is required. No reversion adjustments are necessary as the starting point for our allowance for credit losses reflects historical loss experience covering the expected duration of the reinsurer’s contractual obligation to reimburse us. If available facts and circumstances indicate the reinsurance recoverable does not reflect expectations consistent with the collective analysis, the reinsurance

(Unaudited)
 
recoverable is assessed on a separate basis. Write-offs of reinsurance recoverables are deducted from the allowance in the period the reinsurance recoverable is determined to be uncollectible. We adopted the guidance related to our reinsurance recoverables using the modified retrospective method and recorded an allowance related to lifetime expected credit losses of $31 million, net of deferred taxes of $9 million, with an offset to cumulative effect of change in accounting within retained earnings. See note 8 for additional disclosures related to reinsurance recoverables.
The new guidance retains most of the existing impairment guidance for available-for-sale fixed maturity securities but amends the presentation of credit losses to reflect an allowance for credit losses as opposed to a
 
write-down of the amortized cost of the investment and permits the reversal of credit losses through net income (loss) when reassessing changes in credit losses each reporting period. Available-for-sale fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position are evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value is related to credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, we consider the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency/agencies and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, an allowance for credit losses is recorded, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Estimating the cash flows expected to be collected is a quantitative and qualitative process that incorporates information received from third-party sources along with internal assumptions and judgments. When developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected, we utilize an analytical model that provides for various loss scenarios and consider the industry sector, current levels of subordination, geographic location and other relevant characteristics of the security or underlying assets, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts. Losses are written off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible or when we intend to sell or expect we will be required to sell a security prior to recovering our amortized cost. We exclude accrued interest related to available-for-sale fixed maturity securities from the estimate of allowance for credit losses. Accrued interest is included in accrued investment income in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and had a carrying value of $
565
 million as of September 30, 2020. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses related to accrued interest as uncollectible accrued interest related to our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities are written off after 90 days and once
collectability
is determined to be uncertain and not probable. Amounts written off related to accrued interest are recorded as a credit loss expense included in net investment gains (losses). We adopted the guidance related to our available-for-sale fixed maturity securities for which a previous other-than-temporary impairment was recognized prior to the date of adoption using the prospective method and the modified retrospective method for all other available-for-sale fixed maturity securities, which did not have any impact upon adoption.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to simplifying the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance is currently effective for us on January 1, 2021 using the retrospective method or modified retrospective method for certain changes and prospective method for all other changes, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect a significant impact from this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that significantly changes the recognition and measurement of long-duration insurance contracts and expands disclosure requirements, which impacts our life

insurance deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and liabilities. In accordance with the guidance, the more significant changes include:
 
 
 
assumptions will no longer be locked-in at contract inception and all cash flow assumptions used to estimate the liability for future policy benefits (except the discount rate) will be reviewed at least annually in the same period each year or more frequently if actual experience indicates a change is required. Changes will be recorded in net income (loss) using a retrospective approach with a cumulative catch-up adjustment by recalculating the net premium ratio (which will be capped at 100%) using actual historical and updated future cash flow assumptions;
 
 
 
the discount rate used to determine the liability for future policy benefits will be a current upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed-income instrument yield, which is generally interpreted to mean a single-A rated bond rate for the same duration, and is required to be reviewed quarterly, with changes in the discount rate recorded in other comprehensive income (loss);
 
 
 
the provision for adverse deviation and the premium deficiency test will be eliminated;
 
 
 
market risk benefits associated with deposit-type contracts will be measured at fair value with changes related to instrument-specific credit risk recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and remaining changes recorded in net income (loss);
 
 
 
the amortization method for DAC will generally be on a straight-line basis over the expected contract term; and
 
 
 
disclosures will be greatly expanded to include significant assumptions and product liability rollforwards.
We expect this guidance to be effective for us on January 1, 2023, subject to the FASB finalizing an additional one-year delay, using the modified retrospective method, with early adoption permitted, which we do not intend to elect. Given the nature and extent of the changes to our operations, this guidance is expected to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We did not recognize an allowance for credit losses on securities in an unrealized loss position included in the tables above. Based on a qualitative and quantitative review of the issuers of the securities, we believe the decline in fair value is largely due to recent market volatility and is not indicative of credit losses. The issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. For all securities in an unrealized loss position without

As of September 30, 2020, securities issued by finance and insurance, consumer—non-cyclical, utilities and technology and communications industry groups represented approximately 24%, 15%, 13% and 10%, respectively, of our domestic and foreign corporate fixed maturity securities portfolio. No other industry group comprised more than 10% of our investment portfolio.
As of September 30, 2020, we did not hold any fixed maturity securities in any single issuer, other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, which exceeded 10% of stockholders’ equity.
(e) Commercial Mortgage Loans
Our mortgage loans are collateralized by commercial properties, including multi-family residential buildings. The carrying value of commercial mortgage loans is stated at original cost net of principal payments, amortization and allowance for credit losses.
We diversify our commercial mortgage loans by both property type and geographic region. The following tables set forth the distribution across property type and geographic region for commercial mortgage loans as of the dates indicated:

For a discussion of our policy related to placing commercial mortgage loans on non-accrual status, see Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2020, we had no commercial mortgage loans that were past due for more than 90 days and still accruing interest. We also did not have any commercial mortgage loans that were past due for less than 90 days on non-accrual status as of September 30, 2020.
As of December 31, 2019, we had
no
commercial mortgage loans on non-accrual status.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, we did not have any modifications or extensions that were considered troubled debt restructurings.
The following table sets forth the allowance for credit losses related to commercial mortgage loans as of or for the periods indicated:

In evaluating the credit quality of commercial mortgage loans, we assess the performance of the underlying loans using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. Certain risks associated with commercial mortgage loans can be evaluated by reviewing both the debt-to-value and debt service coverage ratio to understand both the probability of the borrower not being able to make the necessary loan payments as well as the ability to sell the underlying property for an amount that would enable us to recover our unpaid principal balance in the event of default by the borrower. The average debt-to-value ratio is based on our most recent estimate of the fair value for the underlying property which is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A lower debt-to-value indicates that our loan value is more likely to be recovered in the event of default by the borrower if the property was sold. The debt service coverage ratio is

based on “normalized” annual income of the property compared to the payments required under the terms of the loan. Normalization allows for the removal of annual one-time events such as capital expenditures, prepaid or late real estate tax payments or non-recurring third-party fees (such as legal, consulting or contract fees). This ratio is evaluated at least annually and updated more frequently if necessary to better indicate risk associated with the loan. A higher debt service coverage ratio indicates the borrower is less likely to default on the loan. The debt service coverage ratio is not used without considering other factors associated with the borrower, such as the borrower’s liquidity or access to other resources that may result in our expectation that the borrower will continue to make the future scheduled payments.

(f) Limited Partnerships or Similar Entities
Limited partnerships are accounted for at fair value when our partnership interest is considered minor (generally less than 3% ownership in the limited partnerships) and we exercise no influence over operating and financial policies. If our ownership percentage exceeds that threshold, limited partnerships are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In applying either method, we use financial information provided by the investee generally on a one-to-three month lag. However, for limited partnerships measured at fair value, we consider whether an adjustment to the estimated fair value is necessary when the measurement date is not aligned with our reporting date.
Investments in limited partnerships or similar entities are generally considered VIEs when the equity group lacks sufficient financial control. Generally, these investments are limited partner or non-managing member equity investments in a widely held fund that is sponsored and managed by a reputable asset manager. We are not the primary beneficiary of any VIE investment in a limited partnership or similar entity. As of September 30,

2020 and December 31, 2019, the total carrying value of these investments was $823 million and $616 million, respectively. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to the outstanding carrying value and future funding commitments. We have not contributed, and do not plan to contribute, any additional financial or other support outside of what is contractually obligated.
(5) Derivative Instruments
Our business activities routinely deal with fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices, currency
exchange
rates and other asset and liability prices. We use derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce some of these risks. We have established policies for managing each of these risks, including prohibitions on derivatives market-making and other speculative derivatives activities. These policies require the use of derivative instruments in concert with other techniques to reduce or mitigate these risks. While we use derivatives to mitigate or reduce risks, certain derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments and are denoted as “derivatives not designated as hedges” in the following disclosures. For derivatives that meet the accounting requirements to be designated as hedges, the following disclosures for these derivatives are denoted as “derivatives designated as hedges,” which include cash flow hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges
Certain derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded as a component of OCI. We designate and account for the following as cash flow hedges when they have met the effectiveness requirements: (i) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate investments to fixed rate investments; (ii) various types of interest rate swaps to convert floating rate liabilities into fixed rate liabilities; (iii) receive U.S. dollar fixed on foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure of foreign currency denominated investments; (iv) forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge against changes in interest rates associated with future fixed rate bond purchases and/or interest income; and (v) other instruments to hedge the cash flows of various forecasted transactions.

The total of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of $2,451 million, net of taxes, recorded in stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2020 is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the future, concurrently with and primarily offsetting changes in interest expense and interest income on floating rate instruments and interest income on future fixed rate bond purchases. Of this amount, $127 million, net of taxes, is expected to be reclassified to net income (loss) in the next 12 months. Actual amounts may vary from this amount as a result of market conditions. All forecasted transactions associated with qualifying cash flow hedges are expected to occur by 2057. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, we reclassified $7 million and $4 million, respectively, to net income (loss) in connection with forecasted transactions that were no longer considered probable of occurring.
Derivatives Not Designated As Hedges
We also enter into certain non-qualifying derivative instruments such as: (i) interest rate swaps and financial futures to mitigate interest rate risk as part of managing regulatory capital positions; (ii) equity index options, equity return swaps, interest rate swaps and financial futures to mitigate the risks associated with liabilities that have guaranteed minimum benefits, fixed index annuities and indexed universal life; (iii) interest rate caps where the hedging relationship does not qualify for hedge accounting; (iv) foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with non-functional currency investments held by certain foreign subsidiaries; and (v) foreign currency options and forward contracts to mitigate currency risk associated with future dividends or other cash flows from certain foreign subsidiaries to our holding company. Additionally, we provide GMWBs on certain variable annuities that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives. We also offer fixed index annuity and indexed universal life insurance products and have reinsurance agreements with certain features that are required to be bifurcated as embedded derivatives.

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We have fixed maturity securities, short-term investments, equity securities, limited partnerships, derivatives, embedded derivatives, securities held as collateral, separate account assets and certain other financial instruments, which are carried at fair value. Below is a description of the valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair value by class of instrument.
Fixed maturity, short-term investments and equity securities
The fair value of fixed maturity securities, short-term investments and equity securities are estimated primarily based on information derived from third-party pricing services (“pricing services”), internal models and/or broker quotes, which use a market approach, income approach or a combination of the market and income approach depending on the type of instrument and availability of information. In general, a market approach is utilized if there is readily available and relevant market activity for an individual security. In certain cases where market information is not available for a specific security but is available for similar securities, that security is valued using market information for similar securities, which is also a market approach. When market information is not available for a specific security (or similar securities) or is available but such information is less relevant or reliable, an income approach or a combination of a market and income approach is utilized. For securities with optionality, such as call or prepayment features (including mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities), an income approach may be used. In addition, a combination of the results from market and income approaches may be used to estimate fair value. These valuation techniques may change from period to period, based on the relevance and availability of market data.
Further, while we consider the valuations provided by pricing services and broker quotes to be of high quality, management determines the fair value of our investment securities after considering all relevant and available information.
In general, we first obtain valuations from pricing services. If prices are unavailable for public securities, we obtain broker quotes. For all securities, excluding certain private fixed maturity securities, if neither a pricing service nor broker quotes valuation is available, we determine fair value using internal models. For certain private fixed maturity securities where we do not obtain valuations from pricing services, we utilize an internal model to determine fair value since transactions for similar securities are not readily observable and these securities are not typically valued by pricing services.
Given our understanding of the pricing methodologies and procedures of pricing services, the securities valued by pricing services are typically classified as Level 2 unless we determine the valuation process for a security or group of securities utilizes significant unobservable inputs, which would result in the valuation being classified as Level 3.
Broker quotes are typically based on an income approach given the lack of available market data. As the valuation typically includes significant unobservable inputs, we classify the securities where fair value is based on our consideration of broker quotes as Level 3 measurements.
For private fixed maturity securities, we utilize an income approach where we obtain public bond spreads and utilize those in an internal model to determine fair value. Other inputs to the model include rating and weighted-average life, as well as sector which is used to assign the spread. We then add an additional premium, which represents an unobservable input, to the public bond spread to adjust for the liquidity and other features of
