This presentation may contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that are

not historical facts, including statements regarding our expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future are

forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by,

and information currently available to, management. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future financial

and operating results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no

obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The

risks and uncertainties which forward-looking statements are subject to include, but are not limited to: changes in general

economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; weakness or adverse changes in the level

of real estate activity, which may be caused by, among other things, high or increasing interest rates, a limited supply of mortgage

funding or a weak U. S. economy; our potential inability to find suitable acquisition candidates, acquisitions in lines of business

that will not necessarily be limited to our traditional areas of focus, or difficulties in integrating acquisitions; our dependence on

distributions from our title insurance underwriters as a main source of cash flow; significant competition that our operating

subsidiaries face; compliance with extensive government regulation of our operating subsidiaries; and other risks detailed in the

“Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information,” “Risk Factors” and other sections of the Company’s Form 10-K and other

filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting.

GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation

of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, this presentation includes non-GAAP financial

measures, which the Company believes are useful to help investors better understand its financial performance, competitive position and

prospects for the future. These non-GAAP measures include, adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted pre-tax title earnings, adjusted pre-

tax title earnings as a percentage of adjusted title revenue (adjusted pre-tax title margin), adjusted net earnings attributable to common

shareholders (adjusted net earnings), net investment spread, assets under management (AUM), average assets under management (AAUM)

and sales. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful

comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly

titled measures of other organizations because other organizations may not calculate such non-GAAP measures in the same manner as we

do. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation of or as a substitute for, or superior to, the

financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. By disclosing these non-GAAP financial measures, FNF believes it

offers investors a greater understanding of, and an enhanced level of transparency into, the means by which the Company’s management

operates the Company. Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be

considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net earnings, net earnings attributable to common shareholders, net earnings per share,

or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or liquidity. Further, FNF's non-GAAP

measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial

measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided herein.

DEFINITIONS

The following represents the definitions of non-GAAP measures used by the Company.

Adjusted Net Earnings Attributable to Common Shareholders (Adjusted Net Earnings)

Adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders ("adjusted net earnings") is a non-GAAP economic measure we use to evaluate financial performance each period. Adjusted net earnings is calculated by adjusting net earnings (loss) from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders to eliminate:

i. Recognized (gains) and losses, net: the impact of net investment gains/losses, including changes in allowance for expected credit losses and other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") losses, recognized in operations; the impact of market volatility on the alternative asset portfolio that differ from management's expectation of returns over the life of these assets; and the effect of changes in fair value of the reinsurance related embedded derivative;

ii. Indexed product related derivatives: the impacts related to changes in the fair value, including both realized and unrealized gains and losses, of index product related derivatives and embedded derivatives, net of hedging cost;

iii. Purchase price amortization: the impacts related to the amortization of certain intangibles (internally developed software, trademarks and value of distribution asset (VODA)) recognized as a result of acquisition activities;

iv. Transaction costs: the impacts related to acquisition, integration and merger related items; and

v. Other "non-recurring", "infrequent" or "unusual items": Management excludes certain items determined to be “non-recurring”, “infrequent” or “unusual” from adjusted net earnings when incurred if it is determined these expenses are not a reflection of the core business and when the nature of the item is such that it is not reasonably likely to recur within two years and/or there was not a similar item in the preceding two years.

Adjustments to adjusted net earnings are net of the corresponding impact on amortization of intangibles, as appropriate. The income tax impact related to these adjustments is measured using an effective tax rate, as appropriate by tax jurisdiction. While these adjustments are an integral part of the overall performance of F&G, market conditions and/or the non-operating nature of these items can overshadow the underlying performance of the core business. Accordingly, management considers this to be a useful measure internally and to investors and analysts in analyzing the trends of our operations. Adjusted net earnings should not be used as a substitute for net earnings (loss). However, we believe the adjustments made to net earnings (loss) in order to derive adjusted net earnings provide an understanding of our overall results of operations.

Net Investment Spread

Net investment spread is the excess of net investment income, adjusted for market volatility on the alternative asset investment portfolio, earned over the sum of interest

credited to policyholders and the cost of hedging our risk on indexed product policies. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally

and to investors and analysts when assessing the performance of the Company’s invested assets against the level of investment return provided to policyholders, inclusive

Assets Under Management (AUM)

AUM is calculated as the sum of:

i. total invested assets at amortized cost, excluding derivatives;

ii. related party loans and investments;

iii. accrued investment income;

iv. the net payable/receivable for the purchase/sale of investments, and

v. cash and cash equivalents excluding derivative collateral at the beginning of the period and the end of each month in the period, divided by the total number of months in the period plus one.

Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on assets available for reinvestment.

Average Assets Under Management (AAUM)

AAUM is calculated as AUM at the beginning of the period and the end of each month in the period, divided by the total number of months in the period plus one. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing the rate of return on assets available for reinvestment.

Adjusted Return on Assets

Adjusted Return on Assets is calculated by dividing annualized adjusted net earnings by year-to-date AAUM. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure to

be useful internally and to investors and analysts when assessing financial performance and profitability earned on AAUM.

Sales

Annuity, IUL and funding agreement sales are not derived from any specific GAAP income statement accounts or line items and should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Sales from these products are recorded as deposit liabilities (i.e. contractholder funds) within the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. PRT sales are recorded as premiums in revenues within the consolidated financial statements. Management believes that presentation of sales, as measured for management purposes, enhances the understanding of our business and helps depict longer term trends that may not be apparent in the results of operations due to the timing of sales and revenue recognition.
