U.S. Legacy Products Run-off
PRUDENTIAL FINANCIAL INC · 2026-08-04 · Importance 46 · Surprise 56 · From source text
U.S. Legacy Products adjusted operating income fell to $234 million from $351 million, excluding a $49 million unfavorable comparable impact from annual assumption updates and refinements. The underlying decline reflected less favorable underwriting in the guaranteed universal-life block and lower net fee income as traditional variable annuities continued to run off. Net legacy annuity account values decreased 7% to $76 billion from $81.9 billion, driven by net outflows partly offset by market appreciation. The segment was established January 1, 2026, to separately report discontinued annuity and guaranteed-universal-life blocks.
