Following the sale of Genworth Australia, Australia MI segment results are reported as discontinued operations, and all prior periods have been re-presented accordingly.

Strategic Update

Since the beginning of the year, Genworth has continued to make significant progress on its strategic plan to create long-term shareholder value. Steps taken during the current quarter included the successful sale of the company’s ownership position in Genworth Australia, as well as actions to better align Genworth’s expense structure with current business activities. The company paid its February 2021 debt maturity, repurchased $146 million of its September 2021 maturities and partially pre-paid the promissory note issued in connection with the settlement with AXA.

During the current quarter, the company made continued progress on preparations for a planned offering of a portion of Genworth’s interest in the U.S. MI business. However, because the company is in registration and subject to applicable publicity restrictions, Genworth is unable to comment further or provide any additional detail at this time.

In April 2021, the company announced the termination of its merger agreement with Oceanwide. The Board of Directors determined that Oceanwide would not be able to close the transaction within a reasonable timeframe and terminated the agreement to allow Genworth to pursue its strategic plan without restrictions and without uncertainty regarding its ultimate ownership. Both Genworth and Oceanwide continue to believe that there are significant, compelling opportunities to address critical societal needs outside of the U.S. by bringing long term care solutions to the aging population in China.

“I am pleased with the company’s strong first quarter performance as well as our progress on our strategic plan,” said Tom McInerney, Genworth President and CEO. “We have remained nimble and taken decisive actions to ensure Genworth is well positioned to create value for our stakeholders into the future. Given our current holding company cash position, the actions we’ve already taken with our strategic plan, capital raising efforts and our expected cash flow profile, I am confident in Genworth’s ability to meet the debt obligations over the next several years. We have the right strategy in place and the right team to lead our execution of this strategy, along with guidance from our new independent directors Jill R. Goodman, Howard D. Mills, III and Ramsey D. Smith, whom we are delighted to welcome to our Board of Directors.”

Financial Performance

Net investment gains, net of taxes and other adjustments, increased net income by $26 million in the quarter. The investment gains were driven by mark-to-market gains on limited partnerships in the LTC business and net gains on derivatives. The net loss of $66 million in the first quarter of 2020 included $70 million from investment losses, net of taxes and other adjustments.

Net investment income was $801 million in the quarter, compared to $846 million in the prior quarter and $782 million in the prior year. Net investment income was lower than the prior quarter as a result of lower income from bond calls, commercial mortgage loan prepayments and limited partnerships, primarily in the LTC business. Net investment income increased versus the prior year as a result of higher limited partnership income. The reported yield and the core yield⁴ for the quarter were 4.84 percent and 4.73 percent, respectively, compared to 5.07 percent and 4.80 percent, respectively, in the prior quarter.

Genworth’s effective tax rate on income from continuing operations for the quarter was approximately 25 percent. The effective tax rate was increased by the tax effect of forward starting swap gains settled prior to the change in the corporate tax rate under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which continue to be tax effected at 35 percent as they are amortized into net investment income.

Adjusted operating income (loss) results by business line are summarized in the table below:

Adjusted operating income (loss) represents income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and other adjustments, net of taxes. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted operating income is included at the end of this press release.

U.S. Mortgage Insurance

U.S. MI reported adjusted operating income of $126 million, compared with $95 million in the prior quarter and $148 million in the prior year. U.S. MI’s primary insurance in force increased 12 percent versus the prior year from strong new insurance written (NIW), partially offset by lower persistency. Primary NIW decreased eight percent from the prior quarter due to a seasonal decline in purchase mortgage originations and was up 39 percent versus the prior year primarily from higher mortgage originations and a larger private mortgage insurance market, partially offset by lower estimated market share. Earned premiums in the quarter were slightly higher than the prior quarter as insurance in force growth was largely offset by decreased single premium policy cancellations. Current quarter earned premiums increased versus the prior year mainly from higher insurance in force and from increased single premium policy cancellations driven by lower persistency from elevated mortgage refinancing, partially offset by higher ceded premiums from reinsurance transactions and lower average premium rates.

U.S. MI’s current quarter results reflected losses of $55 million and a loss ratio of 22 percent, which were driven by $44 million of losses from new delinquencies and $10 million pre-tax reserve strengthening on pre-COVID-19 delinquencies. New delinquencies decreased by 16 percent from 11,923 in the prior quarter to 10,053. Approximately 54 percent of new primary delinquencies in the current quarter were reported in forbearance plans which may cure at elevated rates relative to historical performance. The reserve strengthening in the current quarter primarily reflects the company’s expectation that pre-COVID-19

4

delinquencies will have a modestly higher claim rate than the company’s prior best estimate given the slower emergence of cures. Results in the prior quarter and prior year reflected losses of $89 million and $19 million, and a loss ratio of 35 percent and eight percent, respectively. The sequential decrease in losses was driven mainly by the $37 million pre-tax reserve strengthening on forbearance delinquencies in the prior quarter and by lower losses from new delinquencies. Current quarter losses increased versus the prior year driven primarily by higher losses from new delinquencies, the current quarter reserve strengthening and lower net benefits from cures and aging of existing delinquencies.

U.S. Life Insurance

Long Term Care Insurance

Long term care insurance reported adjusted operating income of $95 million, compared with $129 million in the prior quarter and $1 million in the prior year. Claim terminations in the current quarter were higher compared to the prior quarter and prior year. Although it is not the company’s current practice to track cause of death for LTC policyholders and claimants, the elevated terminations impacting the current and prior quarter were likely the result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Net investment income increased versus the prior year, driven primarily by a $23 million after-tax increase in income from limited partnerships, and decreased versus the prior quarter driven primarily by a $15 million after-tax decrease in income from bond calls and commercial mortgage loan prepayments. New claim incidence remained low in the current quarter, which drove continued favorable development on incurred but not reported (IBNR) claim reserves. Since the recent decrease in incidence is assumed to be driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and temporary in nature, IBNR claim reserves were strengthened by an additional $23 million after-tax in the current quarter compared to $37 million after-tax in the prior quarter. The company also assumed that the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated its mortality experience on the most vulnerable claimants, leaving its overall claim population less likely to terminate compared to the pre-pandemic average population, and therefore strengthened its claim reserves by $53 million after-tax in the current quarter compared to $72 million after-tax in the prior quarter. Earnings continued to benefit from in force rate actions, which were higher than the prior quarter and prior year. Prior quarter earnings also included a net benefit of $13 million after-tax from the completion of the annual review of LTC assumptions and methodologies.

Life Insurance

Life insurance reported an adjusted operating loss of $63 million, compared with adjusted operating losses of $20 million in the prior quarter and $77 million in the prior year. Mortality was significantly higher compared to the prior quarter and prior year, attributable in part to the COVID-19 pandemic. Current quarter results reflected lower deferred acquisition costs (DAC) amortization compared to the prior quarter and prior year, as the large 20-year level-premium term life insurance block written at the end of 2000 entered its post-level premium period following the 60-day grace period. Results also reflected lower reserve increases during the premium grace period in the 10-year term universal life insurance block associated with policies entering the post-level premium period compared to the prior quarter and prior year. During the quarter, the company recorded a $17 million after-tax charge related to DAC recoverability testing in its universal life insurance products. During the prior quarter, the company completed its annual review of life insurance assumptions and recorded a benefit of $10 million after-tax, which included a net $60 million benefit from assumption changes primarily related to its term universal life insurance products, partially offset by a $50 million charge from annual DAC recoverability testing in its universal life insurance products.

Fixed Annuities

Fixed annuities reported adjusted operating income of $30 million, compared with $20 million in the prior quarter and $6 million in the prior year. Results versus the prior quarter and prior year reflected higher mortality in the single premium immediate annuity product and favorable impacts from improved equity markets and interest rates.

Runoff

Runoff reported adjusted operating income of $12 million, compared with adjusted operating income of $13 million in the prior quarter and an adjusted operating loss of $13 million in the prior year. Results in the current quarter reflected a benefit to the company’s variable annuity products from equity market and interest rate performance that was less favorable compared to the prior quarter and favorable compared to the prior year. Results in the prior quarter included a $5 million after-tax charge for the company’s variable annuity products from annual assumption updates.

6

Corporate And Other

Corporate and Other reported an adjusted operating loss of $32 million, compared with adjusted operating losses of $49 million in the prior quarter and $45 million in the prior year. Results in the current quarter reflected lower corporate operating expenses and lower interest expense compared to both the prior quarter and prior year.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measures entitled “adjusted operating income (loss)” and “adjusted operating income (loss) per share.” Adjusted operating income (loss) per share is derived from adjusted operating income (loss). The chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance and allocates resources on the basis of adjusted operating income (loss). The company defines adjusted operating income (loss) as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding the after-tax effects of income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net investment gains (losses), gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions, restructuring costs and infrequent or unusual non-operating items. Gains (losses) on insurance block transactions are defined as gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of non-recourse funding obligations, early termination fees for other financing restructuring and/or resulting gains (losses) on reinsurance restructuring for certain blocks of business. The company excludes net investment gains (losses) and infrequent or unusual non-operating items because the company does not consider them to be related to the operating performance of the company’s segments and Corporate and Other activities. A component of the company’s net investment gains (losses) is the result of estimated future credit losses, the size and timing of which can vary significantly depending on market credit cycles. In addition, the size and timing of other investment gains (losses) can be subject to the company’s discretion and are influenced by market opportunities, as well as asset-liability matching considerations. Gains (losses) on the sale of businesses, gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt, gains (losses) on insurance block transactions and restructuring costs are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) because, in the company’s opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends. Infrequent or unusual non-operating items are also excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) if, in the company’s opinion, they are not indicative of overall operating trends.

While some of these items may be significant components of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the company believes that adjusted operating income (loss) and measures that are derived from or incorporate adjusted operating income (loss), including adjusted operating income (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis, are appropriate measures that are useful to investors because they identify the income (loss) attributable to the ongoing operations of the business. Management also uses adjusted operating income (loss) as a basis for determining awards and compensation for senior management and to evaluate performance on a basis comparable to that used by analysts. However, the items excluded from adjusted operating income (loss) have occurred in the past and could, and in some cases will, recur in the future. Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating income (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis are not substitutes for net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders or net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders per share on a basic and diluted basis determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the company’s definition of adjusted operating income (loss) may differ from the definitions used by other companies.

Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income (loss) assume a 21 percent tax rate. Net investment gains (losses) are also adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves.

The company repurchased $146 million and $14 million principal amount of Genworth Holdings, Inc.’s (Genworth Holdings) senior notes with 2021 maturity dates for a pre-tax gain (loss) of $(4) million and $1 million in the first quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. In January 2020, the company paid a pre-tax make-whole expense of $9 million related to the early redemption of Genworth Holdings’ senior notes originally scheduled to mature in June 2020 and Rivermont Life Insurance Company I, the company’s indirect wholly-owned special purpose consolidated captive insurance subsidiary, early redeemed all of its $315 million outstanding non-recourse funding obligations originally due in 2050 resulting in a pre-tax loss of $4 million from the write-off of deferred borrowing costs. These transactions were excluded from adjusted operating income as they relate to gains (losses) on the early extinguishment of debt.

10

The company recorded a pre-tax expense of $21 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $1 million in each of the fourth and first quarters of 2020 related to restructuring costs as it continues to evaluate and appropriately size its organizational needs and expenses. There were no infrequent or unusual items excluded from adjusted operating income during the periods presented.

The tables at the end of this press release provide a reconciliation of net income (loss) available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders to adjusted operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, as well as for the three months ended December 31, 2020, and reflect adjusted operating income (loss) as determined in accordance with accounting guidance related to segment reporting.

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measure entitled “core yield” as a measure of investment yield. The company defines core yield as the investment yield adjusted for items that do not reflect the underlying performance of the investment portfolio. Management believes that analysis of core yield enhances understanding of the investment yield of the company. However, core yield is not a substitute for investment yield determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the company’s definition of core yield may differ from the definitions used by other companies. A reconciliation of reported U.S. GAAP yield to core yield is included in a table at the end of this press release.

11

Definition of Selected Operating Performance Measures

The company taxes its businesses at the U.S. corporate federal income tax rate of 21 percent. Each segment is then adjusted to reflect the unique tax attributes of that segment, such as permanent differences between U.S. GAAP and tax law. The difference between the consolidated provision for income taxes and the sum of the provision for income taxes in each segment is reflected in Corporate and Other activities.

The annually-determined tax rates and adjustments to each segment’s provision for income taxes are estimates which are subject to review and could change from year to year.

The company reports selected operating performance measures including “sales” and “insurance in force” or “risk in force” which are commonly used in the insurance industry as measures of operating performance.

Management regularly monitors and reports sales metrics as a measure of volume of new business generated in a period. Sales refer to new insurance written for mortgage insurance products. The company considers new insurance written to be a measure of the company’s operating performance because it represents a measure of new sales of insurance policies during a specified period, rather than a measure of the company’s revenues or profitability during that period.

Management regularly monitors and reports insurance in force and risk in force for the company’s U.S. mortgage insurance business. Insurance in force is a measure of the aggregate unpaid principal balance as of the respective reporting date for loans the company insures. Risk in force is based on the coverage percentage applied to the estimated current outstanding loan balance. The company considers insurance in force and risk in force to be measures of its operating performance because they represent measures of the size of its business at a specific date which will generate revenues and profits in a future period, rather than measures of its revenues or profitability during that period.

Management also regularly monitors and reports a loss ratio for the company’s businesses. For the U.S. mortgage insurance business, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in policy reserves to net earned premiums. For the long term care insurance business, the loss ratio is the ratio of benefits and other changes in reserves less tabular interest on reserves less loss adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The company considers the loss ratio to be a measure of underwriting performance in these businesses and helps to enhance the understanding of the operating performance of the businesses.

These operating performance measures enable the company to compare its operating performance across periods without regard to revenues or profitability related to policies or contracts sold in prior periods or from investments or other sources.
