Forward-Looking Statements and Non-GAAP Measures The information in this document contains forward-looking statements about future events and circumstances and their effects upon revenues, expenses and business opportunities. Generally speaking, any statement in this document not based upon historical fact is a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by the use of forward-looking or conditional words, such as “could,” “should,” “can,” “continue,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “look,” “may,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “predict,” “remain,” “future,” “confident,” and “commit” or similar expressions. In particular, statements regarding plans, strategies, prospects, targets and expectations regarding the business and industry are forward-looking statements. They reflect expectations, are not guarantees of performance and speak only as of the dates the statements are made. We caution investors that these forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, expressed, or implied. Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include those reflected in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors and Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 24, 2026, and elsewhere in Jackson Financial Inc.’s filings filed with the SEC. Except as required by law, Jackson Financial Inc. does not undertake to update such forward-looking statements. You should not rely unduly on forward-looking statements. Certain financial data included in this document consists of non-GAAP (“Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”) financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other entities, nor should they be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP . Although the Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in measuring the financial performance and condition of its business, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any non-GAAP financial measures and ratios included in this document. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in the Appendix of this document. Certain financial data included in this document consists of statutory accounting principles (“statutory”) financial measures, including “total adjusted capital.” These statutory financial measures are included in or derived from the Jackson National Life Insurance Company (“JNL”) annual and/or quarterly statements filed with the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services and are available in the investor relations section of the Company’s website at investors.jackson.com/financials/statutory-filings.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to presenting our results of operations and financial condition in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use and report s elected non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that the use of these non -GAAP financial measures, together with relevant U.S. GAAP financial measures, provides a better understanding of our results of op erations, financial condition and the underlying performance drivers of our business. These non - GAAP financial measures should be considered supplementary to our results of operations and financial condition that are pres ented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may use similarly titled non -GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Consequently, our non -GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated i n accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted Operating Earnings Adjusted Operating Earnings is an after -tax non-GAAP financial measure, which we believe should be used to evaluate our financial performance on a consolidated basis by excluding certain items that may be highly variable from period to period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non -recurring in nature, as well as certain other revenues and expenses that we do not view as driving our underlying performance. Adjusted Operating Earnings should not be used as a substitute for net income as calculated in accordance with U .S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to net income are useful for gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Adjusted Operating Earnings equals our Net income (loss) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. common shareholders (which ex cludes income attributable to non-controlling interest and dividends on preferred stock) adjusted to eliminate the impact of the items described in the following numbered paragraphs. These items are excluded as th ey may vary significantly from period to period due to near -term market conditions or are otherwise not directly comparable or reflective of the underlying performance of our business. We believe these exclusions p rovide investors a better picture of the drivers of our underlying performance. 1) Net Hedging Results: Comprised of: (i) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits; (ii) net gains (losses) on hedging instruments which includes: (a) changes in the fair value of freestanding derivatives, and related commissions and expenses, used to manage the risk associated with market risk benefits and other benefit features, excluding earned income from periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals on cross- currency swaps; and (b) investment income and change in fair value of certain non -derivative assets used to manage the risk asso ciated with market risk benefits and other benefit features; and (iii) the movements in reserves, market risk benefits, benefit features accounted for as embedded derivative instruments adjusted to exclude the cost of hedging for certain indexed annuity products, and related claims and benefit payments (excluding impacts of actuarial assumption updates and model enhancements). We believe excluding these items removes the impact to both revenue and related expenses associated with Net Hedging Results. 2) Amortization of DAC Associated with Non-Operating Items at Date of Transition to LDTI: Amortization of the balance of unamortized deferred acquisition costs, at January 1, 2021, the date of transition to current Long Duration Targeted Improvements (LDTI) accounting guidance, associated with items excluded from pretax adjusted operating earnings prior to transition. 3) Actuarial Assumption Updates and Model Enhancements: The impact on the valuation of MRBs and embedded derivatives arising from our annual actuarial assumption updates and model e nhancements review. 4) Net Realized Investment Gains and Losses: Comprised of: (i) realized investment gains and losses associated with the periodic sales or disposals of securities, excluding those held wi thin our trading portfolio; (ii) impairments of securities, after adjustment for the non -credit component of the impairment charges; and (iii) foreign currency g ain or loss on foreign denominated funding agreements and associated cross- currency swaps. 5) Change in Value of Funds Withheld Embedded Derivative and Net Investment Income on Funds Withheld Assets: Composed of: (i) the change in fair value of funds withheld embedded derivatives; and (ii) net investment income on funds withheld assets related to funds withheld reinsurance transactions. 6) Other Items: Comprised of: (i) the impact of investments that are consolidated in our financial statements due to U.S. GAAP accounting req uirements, such as our investments in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), but for which the consolidation effects are not consistent with our economic interest or exposure to those entities; (ii) impacts from derivatives not included in Net Hedging Results or Net Realized Investment Gains or Losses (see 1. and 4. above), excluding earned income from periodic settlements and changes in settlement accruals on cross-currency swaps; (iii) investment income (loss) related to mark -to- market on TPG shares, which are subject to certain sales restrictions; and (iv) one -time or other non-recurring items. Operating Income Taxes are calculated using the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% while taking into account any items recognized differently in our financial statements and federal income tax returns, including the dividends received deduction and other tax credits. For interim reporting periods, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate in computing its tax provision including consideration of discrete items. 18

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders excludes Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ( Loss) (AOCI) attributable to Jackson Financial Inc. (JFI), which does not include AOCI arising from investments held within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction. We exclude AOC I attributable to JFI from Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders because our invested assets are generally invested to closely match the duration of our liabilities, which are longer duratio n in nature, and therefore we believe period -to-period fair market value fluctuations in AOCI to be inconsistent with this objective. We believe excluding AOCI attributable to JFI is more useful to investors in analyzing t rends in our business because it removes those short -term fluctuations. Changes in AOCI within the funds withheld account related to the Athene Reinsurance Transaction offset the related non -operating earnings from the Athe ne Reinsurance Transaction resulting in a minimal net impact on Adjusted Book Value of JFI. Adjusted Operating Return on Equity Attributable to Common Shareholders We use Adjusted Operating Return on Equity (ROE) Attributable to Common Shareholders to manage our business and evaluate our fin ancial performance which: (i) excludes items that vary from period -to-period due to accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP or that are non -recurring in nature, as such items may distort the underlying performanc e of our business; and (ii) is calculated by dividing our Adjusted Operating Earnings by average Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders. Adjusted Book Value Attributable to Common Shareholders and Adjusted Operating ROE Attributable to Common Shareholders should not be used as substitutes for total shareholders’ equity and ROE as calculated using annualized net income and average equity in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe the adjustments to equity an d earnings are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall results of operations. Free Cash Flow Free cash flow is Jackson Financial Inc. (Parent Company only) net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less prefe rred stock dividends and capital contributions to PPM or other subsidiaries, plus the return of capital from our subsidiaries. Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for JFI’s (Parent Company only) net cash pr ovided by (used in) operating activities calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe these adjustments are useful to gaining an understanding of our overall available cash flow at JFI for return of capi tal to common shareholders and other corporate initiatives. Notable Items Notable items reflect the impact on our results of certain items or events that may or may not have been anticipated and resu lted in volatility in the Company's earnings expectations. The presentation of notable items is intended to help investors better understand our results for the period and to evaluate and forecast those results. 19

Glossary Athene Reinsurance Transaction - The funds withheld coinsurance agreement with Athene Life Re Ltd., entered on June 18, 2020, and effective June 1, 2020, to r einsure a 100% quota share of a block of our in-force fixed and fixed index annuity liabilities in exchange for approximately $1.2 billion in ceding commissions. Deferred Acquisition Cost (DAC) - Represent the incremental costs related directly to the successful acquisition of new, and certain renewal, insurance policies and annuity contracts. The recognition of these costs has been deferred, and the deferred amounts are shown on the balance sheet as an asset, which is subject to amortization over the estimated lives of those policies and contracts. Derivative Instruments - Jackson Financial Inc.'s (JFI) business model includes the acceptance, monitoring and mitigation of risk. Specifically, JFI considers, among other factors, exposures to interest rate and equity market movements, foreign exchange rates and other asset or liability prices. JFI uses derivative instruments to mitigate or reduce these risks in accordance with established policies and goals. JFI's derivative holdings, while effective in managing defined risks, are not structured to meet accounting requirements to be designated as hedging instruments. As a result, freestanding derivatives are carried at fair value with changes each period recorded in net gains or losses on derivatives and investments. Earnings per Share (EPS) - Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to JFI common shareholders, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, plus shares representing the dilutive effect of share-based awards. Fixed Annuity (FA) - An annuity that guarantees a set annual rate of return with interest at rates we determine, subject to specified minimums. Credited interest rates are guaranteed not to change for certain limited periods of time, after which rates may be reset. Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) - An annuity with an ability to share in the upside from certain financial markets such as equity indices and provides downside protection. Guaranteed Minimum Accumulation Benefit (GMAB) - An add-on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) that entitles an owner to a minimum payment, typically in lump-sum, after a set period of time, referred to as the accumulation period. The minimum payment is based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) - An add-on benefit (enhanced benefits available for an additional cost) that guarantees an owner's beneficiaries are entitled to a minimum payment based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the underlying account value, upon the death of the owner. Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit (GMIB) - An add-on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to annuitize the policy and receive a minimum payment stream based on the benefit base, which could be greater than the payment stream resulting from current annuitization of the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit (GMWB) - An add-on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw a maximum amount of their benefit base each year, for which cumulative payments to the owner could be greater than the underlying account value. Guaranteed Minimum Withdrawal Benefit for Life (GMWB for Life) - An add-on benefit (available for an additional cost) where an owner is entitled to withdraw the guaranteed annual withdrawal amount each year for the duration of the policyholder's life, regardless of account performance. LDTI - Accounting Standards Update 2018-12, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts”, effective January 1, 2023, with a transition date of January 1, 2021. Net Amount at Risk (NAR) - The greater of Death Benefit NAR (DBNAR) and Living Benefit NAR (LBNAR), as applicable, where DBNAR is the GMDB benefit base i n excess of the account value, and the LBNAR is the actuarial present value of guaranteed living benefits in excess of the account value. 23

Glossary Net Flows - The net change in customer account balances during a period, after reflecting gross premiums inflows and surrender, withdrawal and benefit payment outflows. Net flows do not include investment performance, interest credited to customer accounts, and policy charges. Registered Index-Linked Annuity (RILA) - A registered index-linked annuity, which offers market index-linked investment options, subject to a cap, and a variety of guarantees designed to modify or limit losses. Return of Premium (ROP) Death Benefit - This death benefit pays the greater of the account value at the time of a claim following the owner's death or the total contributions to the contract (subject to adjustment for withdrawals). The charge for this benefit is usually included in the Mortality and Expense fee that is deducted daily from the net assets in each variable investment option. We also refer to this death benefit as the Return of Principal death benefit. Risk-Based Capital (RBC) - Statutory minimum level of capital that is required by regulators for an insurer to support its operations. Segment - Retail Annuities JFI's Retail Annuities segment offers a variety of retirement income and savings products through its diverse suite of products, consisting primarily of variable annuities, registered index-linked annuities (RILA), fixed annuities, fixed index annuities, and payout annuities. These products are distributed through various wirehouses, insurance brokers, independent broker-dealers, as well as banks and financial institutions. The financial results of the variable annuity business within the Company’s Retail Annuities segment are largely dependent on the performance of the contract holder account value, which impacts both the level of fees collected and the benefits paid to the contract holder. The financial results of the Company’s fixed annuities, fixed index annuities, RILA and the fixed option on variable annuities, are largely dependent on the Company’s ability to earn a spread between earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited to contract holders. Segment - Institutional Products JFI's Institutional Products segment consist of traditional guaranteed investment contracts (GICs), and funding agreements. JFI's GIC products are marketed to defined contribution pension and profit-sharing retirement plans. Funding agreements are marketed to institutional investors, including corporate cash accounts and securities lending funds, as well as money market funds. Funding agreements are also issued in conjunction with JFI’s participation in the U.S. Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) program. The financial results of JFI's Institutional Products business are primarily dependent on the Company’s ability to earn a spread between earned investment rates on general account assets and the interest credited on GICs and funding agreements. Segment - Closed Life and Annuity Blocks JFI’s Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is primarily composed of blocks of business that have been acquired since 2004. The segment includes various protection products, primarily whole life, universal life, variable universal life, and term life insurance products as well as fixed, fixed index, and payout annuities. The Company historically offered traditional and interest-sensitive life insurance products but discontinued new sales of life insurance products in 2012, as we believe opportunistically acquiring mature blocks of life insurance policies is a more efficient means of diversifying our in-force business than selling new life insurance products. The profitability of JFI's Closed Life and Annuity Blocks segment is largely driven by its historical ability to appropriately price its products and purchase appropriately priced blocks of business, as realized through underwriting, expense and net gains (losses) on derivatives and investments, and the ability to earn an assumed rate of return on the assets supporting that business. Variable Annuity (VA) - An annuity that offers tax-deferred investment into a range of asset classes and a variable return, which offers insurance features related to potential future income payments. 24
