The unobservable inputs associated with GMWB embedded derivatives are not interrelated and therefore, a directional change in one input will not affect the other inputs.See note 12 for additional information related to borrowings.Unobservable inputs weighted by the relative fair value of the associated instrument for fixed maturity securities and by notional for derivative assets.Unobservable inputs weighted by the policyholder account balances associated with the instrument.For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, net investment (gains) losses were adjusted for DAC and other intangible amortization and certain benefit reserves of $(1) million, $(11) million and $(11) million, respectively.In the fourth quarter of 2021, our life insurance business initially ceded $360 million of premiums associated with certain term life insurance policies under a new reinsurance treaty as part of a life block transaction.In the fourth quarter of 2021, our life insurance business initially ceded $268 million of certain term life insurance reserves under a new reinsurance treaty as part of a life block transaction. Our life insurance business also completed its annual review of assumptions in the fourth quarter of 2021. This review resulted in higher total benefits and expenses of $87 million from an unfavorable unlocking in our term universal and universal life insurance products largely attributable to higher pre-COVID-19 mortality. In our term universal life insurance products, we also recorded a DAC impairment of $41 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 principally due to lower future estimated gross profits.In the fourth quarter of 2021, our life insurance business recorded a net loss of $131 million predominantly driven by an initial loss of $73 million as a result of ceding certain term life insurance policies as part of a life block transaction, an unfavorable unlocking of $70 million associated with its annual review of assumptions and a DAC impairment of $32 million as a result of recoverability testing.In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded lower net investment gains as compared to the third quarter of 2020. The higher net investment gains recorded in the third quarter of 2020 related to the sale of available-for-sale fixed maturity securities of $330 million driven primarily from the sale of U.S. government securities due to portfolio rebalancing and asset exposure management as a result of the prolonged low interest rate environment. This decrease to total revenues was partially offset by higher net investment income recorded in the fourth quarter of 2020 largely driven by bond calls and mortgage loan repayments of $40 million and limited partnerships of $38 million.Given our assumption that COVID-19 has temporarily decreased the number of new claims submitted, our long-term care insurance business strengthened IBNR reserves in the fourth quarter of 2020 by $47 million. Additionally, our long-term care insurance business recorded a $91 million increase to claim reserves reflecting our assumption that COVID-19 accelerated mortality experience on the most vulnerable claimants, leaving the remaining claim population less likely to terminate compared to the pre-pandemic average population. Our Enact segment recorded an unfavorable reserve adjustment of $37 million primarily due to slowing cure emergence patterns impacting the frequency of claim. Our life insurance business completed its annual review of assumptions in the fourth quarter of 2020. This review resulted in lower total benefits and expenses of $82 million from a net favorable unlocking in our term universal and universal life insurance products largely attributable to a model refinement in our term universal life insurance product related to persistency and grace period timing and lower projected cost of insurance assessments on our universal life insurance products. In addition, we recorded a DAC impairment of $63 million in our universal life insurance products due principally to lower future estimated gross profits.In the fourth quarter of 2020, our long-term care insurance business strengthened its reserves by $109 million after-tax. Our Enact segment strengthened loss reserves by $29 million after-tax. Our life insurance business recorded a $60 million net favorable unlocking, net of taxes, related to its annual review of assumptions. This favorable unlocking in our life insurance business was partially offset by a DAC impairment of $50 million, net of taxes, as a result of recoverability testing. For all of the aforementioned transactions, see above under superscript (2) for additional details.In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, of $35 million principally attributed to expenses associated with the promissory note owed to AXA and from a $5 million net loss in Genworth Australia. The expenses associated with the promissory note mostly consisted of foreign currency remeasurement losses of $26 million, unfavorable tax charges of $17 million and other expenses of $8 million. These expenses were partially offset by derivative hedge gains of $21 million associated with foreign currency forward contracts entered into to mitigate our exposure to the installment payments to be made in British Pounds in 2022. See note 23 for additional details on discontinued operations.Under applicable accounting guidance, companies in a loss position are required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share. Therefore, as a result of our loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, we were required to use basic weighted-average common shares outstanding in the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as the inclusion of shares for stock options, RSUs and SARs of 5.4 million would have been antidilutive to the calculation. If we had not incurred a loss from continuing operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020, dilutive potential weighted-average common shares outstanding would have been 509.7 million.Net of adjustments to DAC, PVFP, sales inducements and benefit reserves. See note 4 for additional information.See note 5 for additional information.Amounts exclude adjustments to DAC, PVFP, sales inducements and benefit reserves.The amount shown in the consolidated balance sheet for other invested assets differs from amortized cost or cost presented, as other invested assets include certain assets with a carrying amount that differs from amortized cost or cost.Represents write-down of securities deemed uncollectible or that we intend to sell or will be required to sell prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis.Excludes foreign exchange.See note 9 for additional information.On September 20, 2021, we completed the minority IPO of Enact Holdings, which reduced our ownership percentage to 81.6%, and lowered our available net income by $29 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.In accordance with accounting guidance on the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or group of assets, the carrying amount of any noncontrolling interests in the subsidiary sold (adjusted to reflect amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) recognized upon final disposition) is added to the total fair value of the consideration received.Represents the aggregate of the net cash proceeds received upon sale closing plus the adjusted carrying amount of noncontrolling interests in the subsidiary sold.Amount consists of $160 million of cumulative losses on foreign currency translation adjustments, partially offset by cumulative unrealized investment gains of $29 million and deferred tax gains of $22 million.The years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 include pre-tax income from discontinued operations available to Genworth Financial, Inc.’s common stockholders of $13 million, $54 million and $100 million, respectively.On March 3, 2021, we completed the sale of Genworth Australia and received net proceeds of approximately AUD483 million ($370 million). The sale of Genworth Australia resulted in a mandatory principal payment of approximately £176 million ($245 million) related to our outstanding secured promissory note issued to AXA, dated as of July 20, 2020, as amended by the parties in connection with the Genworth Australia sale. On September 21, 2021, Genworth Holdings used a portion of the net proceeds from the minority IPO of Enact Holdings to repay the remaining outstanding balance of the secured promissory note of approximately £215 million ($296 million).This class employs various investment strategies such as leveraged buyout, growth equity, venture capital and mezzanine financing, generally investing in debt
