CNO Financial Group, Inc. New Standards Disclosure
Adopted Accounting Standards
We adopted Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09") retrospectively effective January 1, 2025. ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures by requiring, among other things, the disclosure on an annual basis of: (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation; and (ii) additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, ASU 2023-09 requires disclosure (on an annual basis) of the following information about income taxes paid: (i) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes; and (ii) the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) is equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). The adoption of ASU 2023-09 modified our disclosures but did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-08, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans ("ASU 2025-08"). This update establishes a new category of acquired loans ("Purchased Seasoned Loans") subject to the gross-up approach. ASU 2025-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2025-08 should be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2025-08 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06"). This update removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages, and adds that entities are required to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: 1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and 2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The update also removes Subtopic 350-50, Website Development Costs, and incorporates that guidance within Subtopic 350-40. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. Entities will have the option to apply the updates prospectively, under a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2025-06 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets ("ASU 2025-05"). This update provides a practical expedient for entities when estimating expected credit losses to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2025-05 should be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2025-05 on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting
Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement

notes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and for
interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-03 may be
applied retrospectively or prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2024-03 will modify our disclosures but will not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations. We do not expect the impact to our disclosures to be material.

About New Standards Disclosures
New accounting standards disclosures describe recently adopted pronouncements and those not yet effective, along with management's assessment of their expected impact. This section provides an early warning system for upcoming changes to how a company reports its financial results, often years before the new rules take effect.
Key signals: when management describes a not-yet-adopted standard's impact as "material" or "still being evaluated," it signals potential significant changes to reported metrics upon adoption. Watch for standards that affect a company's core operations — for example, revenue recognition changes for software companies or lease accounting changes for retailers with large store footprints. The transition method chosen (full retrospective versus modified retrospective) affects comparability with prior periods. Companies that delay adoption to the latest permitted date may be struggling with implementation complexity. Compare the disclosed impact assessments against peers in the same industry to gauge whether management's expectations are reasonable.
