This is an illustrative track record of positions from 2015 through Q1 2022 that are intended to represent positions that would have been included in AAA had it been in place. This track record refers to the inception of the management of the alternatives portfolio for Athene’s balance sheet, and not for the inception of AAA, which incepted April 2022. Beginning with Q2 2022 the return represents the actual net return of AAA. These returns from 2015 through Q1 2022 are not actual portfolio returns, and no investor has experienced these returns. Returns are calculated by consolidation of all P&L and Values for each position as of each quarter. Last Twelve Months (LTM), 3Y Annualized and Inception to Date (ITD) returns have been calculated on an “RoE” basis, by using an annualized quarterly NAV-based RoE calculation, calculated as realized proceeds and unrealized appreciation/depreciation, divided by average NAV, on a quarterly basis, annualized. Last Twelve Months (LTM), 3Y Annualized and Inception to Date (ITD) returns represent P&L of the quarter divided by the average of the beginning and ending values for each quarter. Positions purchased or sold within each quarter have a zero beginning or ending balance included in the average value.

Key Elements of AAA’s Valuation Processes Based on the views and opinions of Apollo Analysts. For illustrative purposes only. Portfolio detail as of June 30, 2024. The asset allocation framework between private investments, funds/co-invests and third-party funds is meant to be illustrative and may be expected to change over time. The valuation process described herein may change over time and is subject to certain exceptions as may be deemed appropriate. Please refer to the Legal Disclaimer for important additional information about valuation-related risks. Valuation of AAA generally includes: 1. Quarterly portfolio valuation, which includes portfolio review of direct investments, Apollo funds and third-party funds 2. Quarterly positive assurance from independent, third-party valuation agents for direct investments and investments in Apollo funds. For third-party funds, the "Fund GP" provides quarterly NAV marks to AAA (which include third-party positive assurance) 3. Annual consolidated audit, conducted by Deloitte, and reviewed by the AAA Audit Committee, and distributed to investors 4. Monthly adjustments for capital activity or potentially material moves in value for purpose of facilitating monthly subscriptions and monthly positive assurance on material investments (more than 1% of AAA NAV) Athene’s interest in AAA is included in total investments in Athene’s quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC 45 We believe Apollo has Robust Valuation Processes


 
AAA Historical Track Record Disclosure AAA’s track record has been based on all Apollo or Athene alternatives investments, where alternatives investments comprise: (i) for Apollo, GP investments transferred to Athene in early 2022 and positions directly bought or transferred into the AAA vehicle; and (ii) for Athene, all unrated debt or equity investments, excluding residential mortgage loans and commercial real estate debt, which have materially lower returns than those associated with an alternatives product, especially in light of the target returns described above. We have taken this track record over a 6-year period, commencing December 31, 2014 to December 31, 2021 which is the maximum period for which detailed NAV and income information is available for Apollo and Athene’s alternatives investments, as defined above. The following adjustments have been made to that track record to align with the AAA investment policy. Overall, the track record is intended to be broadly representative of the hypothetical return on equity attributable to holders of AAA. Portfolio Composition The historical composition of the Apollo/Athene reference portfolio has been adjusted as follows: 1. Positions held to be allocated as compensation for Apollo employees: Excluded stakes in Apollo funds held with the intention of awarding some/all of those commitments to Apollo employees, as such investments continue to be made by Apollo, as opposed to AAA 2. Exclusion of discontinued product lines: – Oil & Gas: It is not intended to make investments in oil & gas companies or assets out of AAA. Accordingly, the ANRP (Apollo Natural Resources Partners) fund series have been excluded, as well as associated coinvests and direct investments in oil & gas royalties – Discontinued Structured Product Strategies: The following Apollo product strategies have discontinued: (i) SCRF (Structured Credit Recovery Fund) strategy that invested solely in structured products in both cash and synthetic form; (ii) ALME, a similar structured products strategy that invested in CLOs; and (iii) as well as the CMBS (Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities) series of funds, that invested in CMBS in unrated fund format (last vintage in 2012). While it is expected to continue to make certain cash structured products investments in AAA, these will comprise a different series of funds, which, among other things, has historically and is expected to invest opportunistically across the structured products universe during market dislocations. As such, structured credit exposure is most representative through this series. Likewise, making unrated CMBS investments is not anticipated in AAA outside of the Accord fund series – Discontinued Foreign Private Equity Fund: It is not intended to make an investment similar to the investment in AION, an Apollo private equity fund with bespoke strategies focused on India 3. Increased size of strategic yield platform investment exposure: A focus of the AAA portfolio strategy is to invest in bespoke strategic companies that generate yield to provide down-side protection. Over the last 6 years this strategy has been growing as new investments emerge and capabilities widen. Historically the exposure to these specific investments in the 6 year period, is 36%. Going forward, however, we expect AAA to make materially larger investments in similar investments, in line with AAA’s investment objective of maximizing risk vs. reward across the alternatives spectrum, targeting a 50% allocation to strategic yield platforms. Accordingly, we have scaled up the investment allocation to these specific investments at a 50% target allocation, in line with the go-forward strategy of AAA. The total cumulative impact of these adjustments to portfolio composition is as follows: with none of these adjustments, total 6yr return calculated in line with the methodology below would be 12.2%; with all of these adjustments, this increases to 13.3%. Returns Calculation We have calculated returns based on the portfolio composition described above in the following manner: 1. Fees: Fees on AAA are calculated as follows (i) fees on underlying investments in line with what Athene would otherwise have paid. Fees are calculated as follows for the purpose of the track record: (i) on Athene investments, fees actually charged to Athene, which are representative of fees that will be charged on those investments once contributed to the AAA portfolio; and (ii) on Apollo investments – where no fees were historically charged – a 10% discount is applied to maximum fee rate available (on committed or invested, as applicable). Please note this may be higher than the actual fees that would have been paid by Athene (or AAA) on these investments. Athene’s fees are calculated based on a 10% discount to MFN fees for the size of Athene’s investment, which often means Athene pays lower fees than a 10% discount to the maximum rate charged to any investor. 2. Returns Metric: AAA is an open-ended, permanent capital vehicle. Accordingly, returns have been calculated on an “RoE” basis, taking quarterly net income and dividing by NAV, in line with how a REIT, BDC or similar permanent capital vehicle would calculate returns. Net income is defined as realized proceeds and unrealized appreciation/depreciation. AAA’s returns are calculated by using an annualized quarterly NAV-based ROE calculation, calculated as realized proceeds and unrealized appreciation/depreciation, divided by average NAV, on a quarterly basis, annualized. For reference, such an RoE is in contrast to IRR which represents the annualized return of a fund based on the actual timing of all cumulative fund cash flows. 3. Compilation Methodology: 6yr compound average has been calculated for each of the following investment categories: (i) platforms (directs excluding coinvests); and (ii) funds and coinvests. These two categories have been weighted based on the 2021 average portfolio composition, pro forma for the adjustments described above, of approximately 50% platforms and 50% funds. This has a material impact on portfolio composition, as the directs strategy has scaled rapidly in recent years. The AAA track record presented throughout this presentation is for illustrative purposes only. It is based on a number of assumptions which may or may not ultimately be proven out by actual performance, and therefore actual returns may be substantially less than those illustrated. In keeping with the illustrative nature of this track record, no investor received these returns – as this vehicle did not exist for the observation period – and there is no guarantee that such returns will be achieved in the future. 46


 
The valuation methodologies employed by Apollo, particularly with regard to securities of private companies and securities that are subject to lock-ups or other limitations on free marketability, vary from security to security and change from time to time, without notice, for a variety of reasons, including the following: (i) valuation rules under generally accepted accounting principles are in constant evolution; (ii) different methodologies may be more appropriate (in Apollo view) at different stages of a particular portfolio company’s lifecycle (depending, for example, upon whether the portfolio company is generating revenue, is generating profit, has become a candidate for acquisition or public offering, or has readily determinable comparables in the marketplace); (iii) preferences or subordinations applicable to particular portfolio securities; (iv) special circumstances affecting a particular portfolio company (such as actual or threatened litigation, loss of key customers, vendors or personnel, or lack of sufficient operating capital); and (v) Apollo’s own judgment regarding macro issues such as developments in markets and technologies and micro issues such as the quality of a particular portfolio company’s management or technology personnel. We make and rely on certain assumptions and estimates regarding many matters related to our businesses, including valuations, interest rates, investment returns, expenses and operating costs, tax assets and liabilities, tax rates, business mix, surrender activity, mortality and contingent liabilities. We also use these assumptions and estimates to make decisions crucial to our business operations. We also use assumptions and estimates to make decisions about pricing, target returns and expense structures for our insurance subsidiaries’ products and pension group annuity transactions; determining the amount of reserves our retirement services business is required to hold for its policy liabilities; determining the price our retirement services business will pay to acquire or reinsure business; determining the hedging strategies we employ to manage risks to our business and operations; and determining the amount of regulatory and rating agency capital that our insurance subsidiaries must hold to support their businesses. Similarly, our management teams make assumptions and estimates in planning and measuring the performance of our asset management business. In addition, certain investments and other assets and liabilities of our asset management business and our retirement services business must be, or at our election are, measured at fair value the determination of which involves the use of various assumptions and estimates and considerable judgment. The factors influencing these various assumptions and estimates cannot be calculated or predicted with certainty, and if our assumptions and estimates differ significantly from actual outcomes and results, our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected. Please refer to the Form 10-K filed by Apollo Global Management, Inc. for additional risk factors. ADIP I and ADIP II are currently closed to investors and no longer accepting commitments. Target IRR is presented solely for the purpose of providing insight into the Fund’s investment objectives, detailing the Fund's anticipated risk and reward characteristics in order to facilitate comparisons with other investments and for establishing a benchmark for future evaluation of the Fund's performance. The target IRR presented is not a prediction, projection or guarantee of future performance. The targeted IRR is based upon estimates and assumptions that a potential investment will yield a return equal or greater than the target. There can be no assurance that Apollo's targets will be realized or that Apollo will be successful in finding investment opportunities that meet these anticipated return parameters. Apollo’s target of potential return from a potential investment is not a guarantee as to the quality of the investment or a representation as to the adequacy of Apollo's methodology for estimating returns. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual investment results. Also, since the performance presented does not represent an actual investment portfolio, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity or market disruptions. Hypothetical or simulated performance results set forth herein are based on a number of assumptions (not all of which are described herein) which may or may not be accurate, and therefore actual returns may be substantially less than those illustrated. No representation is being made by the inclusion of any hypothetical or simulated illustration presented herein that the returns for any Apollo Fund will achieve similar results. Disclaimer 47


 
Non-GAAP Definitions In addition to our results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), we present certain financial information that includes non-GAAP measures. Management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures, together with the relevant US GAAP measures, provides information that may enhance an investor’s understanding of our results of operations and the underlying profitability drivers of our business. The majority of these non-GAAP measures are intended to remove from the results of operations the impact of market volatility (other than with respect to alternative investments), which consists of investment gains (losses), net of offsets and non-operating change in insurance liabilities and related derivatives, as well as integration, restructuring, stock compensation and certain other expenses which are not part of our underlying profitability drivers, as such items fluctuate from period to period in a manner inconsistent with these drivers. These measures should be considered supplementary to our results in accordance with US GAAP and should not be viewed as a substitute for the corresponding US GAAP measures. Spread Related Earnings (SRE) Spread related earnings is a pre-tax non-GAAP measure used to evaluate our financial performance including the impact of any reinsurance transactions and excluding market volatility and expenses related to integration, restructuring, stock compensation and other expenses. Our spread related earnings equals net income available to AHL common stockholder adjusted to eliminate the impact of the following: (a) investment gains (losses), net of offsets; (b) non- operating change in insurance liabilities and related derivatives; (c) integration, restructuring, and other non-operating expenses; (d) stock compensation expense; and (e) income tax (expense) benefit. We consider these adjustments to be meaningful adjustments to net income (loss) available to AHL common stockholder. Accordingly, we believe using a measure which excludes the impact of these items is useful in analyzing our business performance and the trends in our results of operations. Together with net income (loss) available to AHL common stockholder, we believe spread related earnings provides a meaningful financial metric that helps investors understand our underlying results and profitability. Spread related earnings should not be used as a substitute for net income (loss) available to AHL common stockholder. SRE, Excluding Notable Items Spread related earnings, excluding notable items represents SRE with an adjustment to exclude notable items. Notable items include unusual variability such as actuarial experience, assumption updates and other insurance adjustments. We use this measure to assess the long-term performance of the business against projected earnings, by excluding items that are expected to be infrequent or not indicative of the ongoing operations of the business. We view this non- GAAP measure as an additional measure that provides insight to management and investors on the historical, period-to-period comparability of our key non-GAAP operating measures. Cost of Funds Cost of funds includes liability costs related to cost of crediting on both deferred annuities and institutional products as well as other liability costs, but does not include the proportionate share of the ACRA cost of funds associated with the noncontrolling interests. Cost of crediting on deferred annuities is the interest credited to the policyholders on our fixed strategies as well as the option costs on the indexed annuity strategies. With respect to FIAs, the cost of providing index credits includes the expenses incurred to fund the annual index credits, and where applicable, minimum guaranteed interest credited. Cost of crediting on institutional products is comprised of (1) pension group annuity costs, including interest credited, benefit payments and other reserve changes, net of premiums received when issued, and (2) funding agreement costs, including the interest payments and other reserve changes. Additionally, cost of crediting includes forward points gains and losses on foreign exchange derivative hedges. Other liability costs include DAC, DSI and VOBA amortization, certain market risk benefit costs, the cost of liabilities on products other than deferred annuities and institutional products, premiums and certain product charges and other revenues. We include the costs related to business added through assumed reinsurance transactions and exclude the costs on business related to ceded reinsurance transactions. Cost of funds is computed as the total liability costs divided by the average net invested assets for the relevant period. To enhance the ability to analyze these measures across periods, interim periods are annualized. We believe a measure like cost of funds is useful in analyzing the trends of our core business operations, profitability and pricing discipline. While we believe cost of funds is a meaningful financial metric and enhances our understanding of the underlying profitability drivers of our business, it should not be used as a substitute for total benefits and expenses presented under US GAAP. Non-GAAP Measures & Definitions 48


 
Non-GAAP Measures & Definitions 49 Other Operating Expenses Other operating expenses excludes integration, restructuring and other non-operating expenses, stock compensation and long-term incentive plan expenses, interest expense, policy acquisition expenses, net of deferrals, and the proportionate share of the ACRA operating expenses associated with the noncontrolling interests. We believe a measure like other operating expenses is useful in analyzing the trends of our core business operations and profitability. While we believe other operating expenses is a meaningful financial metric and enhances our understanding of the underlying profitability drivers of our business, it should not be used as a substitute for policy and other operating expenses presented under US GAAP. Adjusted Senior Debt-to-Capital Ratio Adjusted senior debt-to-capital ratio is a non-GAAP measure used to evaluate our capital structure excluding the impacts of AOCI and the cumulative changes in fair value of funds withheld and modco reinsurance assets as well as mortgage loan assets, net of tax. Adjusted senior debt-to-capital ratio is calculated as senior debt at notional value divided by adjusted capitalization. Adjusted capitalization includes our adjusted AHL common stockholder’s equity, preferred stock and the notional value of our total debt. Adjusted AHL common stockholder’s equity is calculated as the ending AHL stockholders’ equity excluding AOCI, the cumulative changes in fair value of funds withheld and modco reinsurance assets and mortgage loan assets as well as preferred stock. These adjustments fluctuate period to period in a manner inconsistent with our underlying profitability drivers as the majority of such fluctuation is related to the market volatility of the unrealized gains and losses associated with our AFS securities, reinsurance assets and mortgage loans. Except with respect to reinvestment activity relating to acquired blocks of businesses, we typically buy and hold investments to maturity throughout the duration of market fluctuations, therefore, the period-over-period impacts in unrealized gains and losses are not necessarily indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance. Adjusted senior debt-to-capital ratio should not be used as a substitute for the debt-to-capital ratio. However, we believe the adjustments to stockholders’ equity and debt are significant to gaining an understanding of our capitalization, debt utilization and debt capacity. Net Invested Assets In managing our business, we analyze net invested assets, which does not correspond to total investments, including investments in related parties, as disclosed in our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Net invested assets represent the investments that directly back our net reserve liabilities as well as surplus assets. Net invested assets is used in the computation of net investment earned rate, which allows us to analyze the profitability of our investment portfolio. Net invested assets include (a) total investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with AFS securities, trading securities and mortgage loans at cost or amortized cost, excluding derivatives, (b) cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, (c) investments in related parties, (d) accrued investment income, (e) VIE assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest adjustments, (f) net investment payables and receivables, (g) policy loans ceded (which offset the direct policy loans in total investments) and (h) an adjustment for the allowance for credit losses. Net invested assets exclude the derivative collateral offsetting the related cash positions. We include the underlying investments supporting our assumed funds withheld and modco agreements and exclude the underlying investments related to ceded reinsurance transactions in our net invested assets calculation in order to match the assets with the income received. We believe the adjustments for reinsurance provide a view of the assets for which we have economic exposure. Net invested assets include our proportionate share of ACRA investments, based on our economic ownership, but do not include the proportionate share of investments associated with the noncontrolling interests. Our net invested assets are averaged over the number of quarters in the relevant period to compute our net investment earned rate for such period. While we believe net invested assets is a meaningful financial metric and enhances our understanding of the underlying drivers of our investment portfolio, it should not be used as a substitute for total investments, including related parties, presented under US GAAP. Net Reserve Liabilities In managing our business, we also analyze net reserve liabilities, which does not correspond to total liabilities as disclosed in our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Net reserve liabilities represent our policyholder liability obligations net of reinsurance and are used to analyze the costs of our liabilities. Net reserve liabilities include (a) interest sensitive contract liabilities, (b) future policy benefits, (c) net market risk benefits, (d) long- term repurchase obligations, (e) dividends payable to policyholders and (f) other policy claims and benefits, offset by reinsurance recoverable, excluding policy loans ceded. Net reserve liabilities include our proportionate share of ACRA reserve liabilities, based on our economic ownership, but do not include the proportionate share of reserve liabilities associated with the noncontrolling interests. Net reserve liabilities are net of the ceded liabilities to third-party reinsurers as the costs of the liabilities are passed to such reinsurers and, therefore, we have no net economic exposure to such liabilities, assuming our reinsurance counterparties perform under our agreements. For such transactions, US GAAP requires the ceded liabilities and related reinsurance recoverables to continue to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements despite the transfer of economic risk to the counterparty in connection with the reinsurance transaction. We include the underlying liabilities assumed through modco reinsurance agreements in our net reserve liabilities calculation in order to match the liabilities with the expenses incurred. While we believe net reserve liabilities is a meaningful financial metric and enhances our understanding of the underlying profitability drivers of our business, it should not be used as a substitute for total liabilities presented under US GAAP.


 
Non-GAAP Measures & Definitions 50 Sales Sales statistics do not correspond to revenues under US GAAP but are used as relevant measures to understand our business performance as it relates to inflows generated during a specific period of time. Our sales statistics include inflows for fixed rate annuities and FIAs and align with the LIMRA definition of all money paid into an individual annuity, including money paid into new contracts with initial purchase occurring in the specified period and existing contracts with initial purchase occurring prior to the specified period (excluding internal transfers). We believe sales is a meaningful metric that enhances our understanding of our business performance and is not the same as premiums presented in our condensed consolidated statements of income. Assets Under Management Assets Under Management, or AUM, refers to the assets of the funds, partnerships and accounts to which Apollo provides investment management, advisory, or certain other investment-related services, including, without limitation, capital that such funds, partnerships and accounts have the right to call from investors pursuant to capital commitments. AUM equals the sum of: 1. the net asset value, plus used or available leverage and/or capital commitments, or gross assets plus capital commitments, of the yield and certain hybrid funds, partnerships and accounts for which Apollo provides investment management or advisory services, other than certain collateralized loan obligations, collateralized debt obligations, and certain perpetual capital vehicles, which have a fee-generating basis other than the mark-to-market value of the underlying assets; for certain perpetual capital vehicles in yield, gross asset value plus available financing capacity; 2. the fair value of the investments of equity and certain hybrid funds, partnerships and accounts Apollo manages or advises, plus the capital that such funds, partnerships and accounts are entitled to call from investors pursuant to capital commitments, plus portfolio level financings; 3. the gross asset value associated with the reinsurance investments of the portfolio company assets Apollo manages or advises; and 4. the fair value of any other assets that Apollo manages or advises for the funds, partnerships and accounts to which Apollo provides investment management, advisory, or certain other investment-related services, plus unused credit facilities, including capital commitments to such funds, partnerships and accounts for investments that may require pre-qualification or other conditions before investment plus any other capital commitments to such funds, partnerships and accounts available for investment that are not otherwise included in the clauses above. Apollo’s AUM measure includes Assets Under Management for which Apollo charges either nominal or zero fees. Apollo’s AUM measure also includes assets for which Apollo does not have investment discretion, including certain assets for which Apollo earns only investment-related service fees, rather than management or advisory fees. Apollo’s definition of AUM is not based on any definition of Assets Under Management contained in its governing documents or in any Apollo Fund management agreements. Apollo considers multiple factors for determining what should be included in its definition of AUM. Such factors include but are not limited to (1) Apollo’s ability to influence the investment decisions for existing and available assets; (2) Apollo’s ability to generate income from the underlying assets in its funds; and (3) the AUM measures that Apollo uses internally or believes are used by other investment managers. Given the differences in the investment strategies and structures among other alternative investment managers, Apollo’s calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations employed by other investment managers and, as a result, this measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers. Apollo’s calculation also differs from the manner in which its affiliates registered with the SEC report “Regulatory Assets Under Management” on Form ADV and Form PF in various ways. Apollo uses AUM, Gross capital deployed and Dry powder as performance measurements of its investment activities, as well as to monitor fund size in relation to professional resource and infrastructure needs.
