"We had a great start to 2023 with strong production results across the business and core income up 9% to $325 million. Net investment income of $525 million increased $77 million over the first quarter of 2022 and our P&C underlying underwriting gain was up 19% to a record $197 million in the quarter.
Against a backdrop of yet another significantly elevated industry cat quarter, our pretax catastrophe losses were only $52 million or 2.4 points in the quarter, reflecting our disciplined underwriting of catastrophe exposures.
Net and gross written premium ex captives each grew by 11% and 12% excluding currency fluctuations. Our overall P&C rate increase rebounded to 5% in the quarter, up a point compared to the fourth quarter, and Commercial rates were up two points to 7% driven by strong Property pricing.
Given the strong start to 2023, the improved pricing in Commercial lines and the tailwind from higher fixed income yields, we are optimistic about our ability to leverage the continued favorable market conditions throughout the remainder of 2023," said Dino E. Robusto, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of CNA Financial Corporation.

| Net investment income | $ | 525 | | | | $ | 448 | | |
Net investment income increased $77 million for the first quarter of 2023 as compared with the prior year quarter. The increase was driven by a $57 million increase in income from fixed income securities and other investments and a $20 million increase in income from limited partnership and common stock investments.
Stockholders' Equity
Stockholders’ equity of $8.7 billion improved 1% from year-end 2022 primarily due to net income and the effect of lower interest rates on the fair value of our fixed income securities partially offset by dividends paid to stockholders and the LDTI impact of a lower discount rate on policyholder benefit reserves.
Book value per share ex AOCI of $44.21 increased 2% from year-end 2022 adjusting for $1.62 of dividends per share.
As of March 31, 2023, statutory capital and surplus for the Combined Continental Casualty Companies was $10.5 billion.
Accounting Standards Update
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts. The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the measurement and disclosure of long-duration contracts. For the Company, this includes the run-off long term care business in the Life & Group segment. The Company adopted the new guidance effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective method applied as of the transition date of January 1, 2021. All prior period amounts have been adjusted to reflect application of the new guidance. While the requirements of the new guidance represent a material change from legacy accounting, the new guidance does not impact capital and surplus under statutory accounting practices, cash flows or the underlying economics of the business. Additional information regarding the Company’s adoption of ASU 2018-12 and the impact to historical financial results is contained in the Company's Q1 2023 Financial Supplement, furnished on Form 8-K, on May 1, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Financial Measures
Management utilizes the following metrics in their evaluation of the Property & Casualty Operations.
These ratios are calculated using financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
•Loss ratio is the percentage of net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses to net earned premiums.
•Underlying loss ratio represents the loss ratio excluding catastrophe losses and development-related items.
•Expense ratio is the percentage of insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums.
•Dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholders' dividends incurred to net earned premiums.
•Combined ratio is the sum of the loss, expense and dividend ratios.
•Underlying combined ratio is the sum of the underlying loss, expense and dividend ratios.
Renewal premium change represents the estimated change in average premium on policies that renew, including rate and exposure changes.
Rate represents the average change in price on policies that renew excluding exposure change. For certain products within Small Business, where quantifiable, rate includes the influence of new business as well.
Exposure represents the measure of risk used in the pricing of the insurance product. The change in exposure represents the change in premium dollars on policies that renew as a result of the change in risk of the policy.
Retention represents the percentage of premium dollars renewed, excluding rate and exposure changes, in comparison to the expiring premium dollars from policies available to renew.
New business represents premiums from policies written with new customers and additional policies written with existing customers.
Gross written premiums ex. 3rd party captives represents gross written premiums excluding business which is ceded to third party captives, including business related to large warranty programs.
Development-related items represents net prior year loss reserve and premium development, and includes the effects of interest accretion and change in allowance for uncollectible reinsurance and deductible amounts.
Underwriting gain (loss) represents net earned premiums less total insurance expenses, which includes insurance claims and policyholders' benefits, amortization of deferred acquisition costs and other insurance related expenses, pre-tax.
Underlying underwriting gain (loss) represents underwriting results excluding catastrophe losses and development-related items.
Statutory capital and surplus represents the excess of an insurance company's admitted assets over its liabilities, including loss reserves, as determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices. Statutory capital and surplus as of the current period is preliminary.
The Company's investment portfolio is monitored by management through analysis of various factors including unrealized gains and losses on securities, portfolio duration and exposure to market and credit risk.
Reconciliation of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures
This press release also contains financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP. Management utilizes these financial measures to monitor the Company's insurance operations and investment portfolio. The Company believes the presentation of these measures provides investors with a better understanding of the significant factors that comprise the Company's operating performance. Reconciliations of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measures follow below.
Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Core Income (Loss)
Core income (loss) is calculated by excluding from net income (loss) the after-tax effects of net investment gains or losses. The calculation of core income (loss) excludes net investment gains or losses because net investment gains or losses are generally driven by economic factors that are not necessarily reflective of our primary operations. Management monitors core income (loss) for each business segment to assess segment performance. Presentation of consolidated core income (loss) is deemed to be a non-GAAP financial measure.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share to Core Income (Loss) per Diluted Share
Core income (loss) per diluted share provides management and investors with a valuable measure of the Company's operating performance for the same reasons applicable to its underlying measure, core income (loss). Core income (loss) per diluted share is core income (loss) on a per diluted share basis.

Reconciliation of Book Value per Share to Book Value per Share Excluding AOCI
Book value per share excluding AOCI allows management and investors to analyze the amount of the Company's net worth primarily attributable to the Company's business operations. The Company believes this measurement is useful as it reduces the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates.

(1) 2022 Core income decreased from what was previously reported generally driven by the cumulative effect of assumption differences and differences in reserving methodologies between legacy accounting guidance and LDTI.
(2) Q3 2022 Core income decreased $170 million from what was previously reported under legacy accounting guidance, primarily related to our Q3 2022 annual review of cash flow reserving assumptions. Under legacy accounting guidance, the Q3 2022 gross premium valuation assessment indicated a pretax margin of $125 million and no unlocking event occurred. Under LDTI favorable changes to the upper-medium grade (low credit risk) fixed income instrument discount rate were recorded through AOCI quarterly, while the net unfavorable impact of increased cost of care inflation offset by favorable premium rate action assumptions was recorded in income.
(3) Annualized net income (loss) divided by the average stockholders' equity including AOCI for the period. Average equity including AOCI is calculated using a simple average of the beginning and ending balances for the period.
(4) Annualized core income (loss) divided by the average stockholders' equity excluding AOCI for the period. Average equity excluding AOCI is calculated using a simple average of the beginning and ending balances for the period.

(1) 2022 Core income decreased from what was previously reported generally driven by the cumulative effect of assumption differences and differences in reserving methodologies between legacy accounting guidance and LDTI.
(2) Q3 2022 Core income decreased $170 million from what was previously reported under legacy accounting guidance, primarily related to our Q3 2022 annual review of cash flow reserving assumptions. Under legacy accounting guidance, the Q3 2022 gross premium valuation assessment indicated a pretax margin of $125 million and no unlocking event occurred. Under LDTI favorable changes to the upper-medium grade fixed income instrument discount rate were recorded through AOCI quarterly, while the net unfavorable impact of increased cost of care inflation offset by favorable premium rate action assumptions was recorded in income.

Definitions and Presentation
•Collectively, CNA Financial Corporation (CNAF) and its subsidiaries are referred to as CNA or the Company.
•P&C Operations includes Specialty, Commercial and International.
•Life & Group segment includes the individual and group run-off long term care businesses as well as structured settlement obligations not funded by annuities related to certain property and casualty claimants.
•Corporate & Other segment primarily includes certain corporate expenses, including interest on corporate debt, and the results of certain property and casualty business in run-off, including CNA Re, asbestos and environmental pollution (A&EP), a legacy portfolio of excess workers' compensation (EWC) policies and certain legacy mass tort reserves.
•Management uses the core income (loss) financial measure to monitor the Company’s operations for the Specialty, Commercial and International segments. Core income (loss) is calculated by excluding from net income (loss) the after-tax effects of net investment gains or losses. The calculation of core income (loss) excludes net investment gains or losses because net investment gains or losses are generally driven by economic factors that are not necessarily reflective of our primary operations. Management monitors core income (loss) for each business segment to assess segment performance. Presentation of consolidated core income (loss) is deemed to be a non-GAAP financial measure and management believes some investors may find this measure useful to evaluate the Company's primary operations. Please refer to Note O to the Consolidated Financial Statements within the December 31, 2022 Form 10-K for further discussion regarding how the Company manages its business.
•This financial supplement may also reference or contain financial measures utilized to monitor the Company's investment portfolio that are not in accordance with GAAP. The Company's investment portfolio is monitored by management through analysis of various factors including unrealized gains and losses on securities, portfolio duration and exposure to market and credit risk.
•For reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures and other information, please refer herein and/or to CNA's most recent 10-K on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the press release, available at www.cna.com.
•In evaluating the results of the Specialty, Commercial and International segments, management uses the loss ratio, the expense ratio, the dividend ratio and the combined ratio. These ratios are calculated using financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The loss ratio is the percentage of net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio is the percentage of insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholders' dividends incurred to net earned premiums. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss, expense and dividend ratios. In addition, management also utilizes renewal premium change, rate, retention and new business in evaluating operating trends. Renewal premium change represents the estimated change in average premium on policies that renew, including rate and exposure changes. Rate represents the average change in price on policies that renew excluding exposure change. For certain products within Small Business, where quantifiable, rate includes the influence of new business as well. Exposure represents the measure of risk used in the pricing of the insurance product. The change in exposure represents the change in premium dollars on policies that renew as a result of the change in risk of the policy. Retention represents the percentage of premium dollars renewed, excluding rate and exposure changes, in comparison to the expiring premium dollars from policies available to renew. New business represents premiums from policies written with new customers and additional policies written with existing customers.
•Management uses underwriting gain (loss), calculated using GAAP financial results, to monitor insurance operations of our Specialty, Commercial and International segments. Underwriting gain (loss) is pretax and calculated as net earned premiums less total insurance expenses, which includes insurance claims and policyholders' benefits, amortization of deferred acquisition costs and other insurance related expenses.
•Gross written premiums ex. 3rd party captives represents gross written premiums excluding business which is ceded to third party captives, including business related to large warranty programs.
•Statutory capital and surplus represents the excess of an insurance company's admitted assets over its liabilities, including loss reserves, as determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices.
•Pretax net prior year development and other represents net prior year loss reserve and premium development, and includes the effects of interest accretion and change in allowance for uncollectible reinsurance and deductible amounts.
•Net investment income from fixed income securities, as presented, includes both fixed maturity securities and non-redeemable preferred stock.
•Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding.
•N/M = Not Meaningful
