Total profit, before and after tax, incorporating the adjustment from longer term returns to actual investment returns includes losses of £9m attributable to these minority interests.

Longer-term returns now include averaged realised gains for fixed maturities only, and returns for equity based investments based on a longer-term rate of return. Comparatives have not been restated for the refinement in policy as the effect is immaterial to the results for those periods. 10b Averaged realised gains on fixed maturities Half year ended 30 June 2001 US$m £m Realised gains (losses) arising in period (net of related change to amortisation of acquisition expenses) Full year 1997 30 1998 34 1999 (1) 2000 (69) Half year 2001 (46) (32) Five year average credited to UK (10) (7) statutory basis operating profit Shortfall of current period realised losses over five year average excluded from statutory basis operating profit (but included in profit before tax) (36) (25) 10c Longer-term returns on equity based investments Longer-term returns for these investments have been determined by applying a longer-term rate of return of 7.75% Schedule 11 2001 Unaudited Interim results Statutory basis results Half year ended 30 June 2001 UK GAAP adjustments Longer-term Segmental investment result US returns EITF for UK GAAP interests 99-20 Modified Statutory Basis GAAP purposes Jackson National Life US $m US $m US$m US $m £m Reconciliation of US GAAP basis result to UK GAAP Operating profit (note 274 27 301 209 11a) Realised investment gains (losses), net of related change to amortisation of acquisition costs (note 11a) Fixed Maturities (46) 46 0 0 Equities 8 (8) 0 0 Short-term fluctuations in investment returns (51) (29) (80) (56) Amortisation of goodwill (3) (3) (2) Profit before tax 223 14 (29) 218 151 Tax on operating profit (95) (9) (104) (73) on short-term- fluctuations in investment returns 13 5 10 28 20 total tax charge (82) (4) 10 (76) (53) Profit after tax 151 10 (19) 142 98 Change of accounting principle - implementation of EITF 99-20 (see note (19) 19 0 0 11b) Total net income (note 11c) 132 10 0 142 98 Exchange rate 1.44 Notes 11a US GAAP operating profit and realised investment gains and losses These items are shown after excluding minority interests. For UK reporting purposes the segmental result of Jackson National Life reflect its proportionate interest in the results of two investment funds that are consolidated as quasi-subsidiaries. These items also exclude the impact of profits and losses that are recognised under US GAAP as a result of the implementation of FAS133 on accounting for derivative instruments. Such gains and losses are not generally recognised for UK GAAP purposes. 11b EITF 99-20 Effective 1 April 2001, EITF 99-20 issued by the US Federal Accounting Standards Board established new income and impairment recognition standards for interests in securitised financial assets. The initial transition write-down is comprised of: $m £m Gross write-down (33) (23) Related change to amortisation of acquisition costs 4 3 Pre-tax charge (29) (20) Related tax 10 7 Net of tax charge (19) (13) 11c Total net income The difference between total US GAAP and UK GAAP basis net income of $10m represents the movement on unrealised appreciation for equities and preferred stock. Under US GAAP this amount is credited to Other Comprehensive Income rather than the income statement. The $10m includes $5m of accumulated unrealised appreciation as at 1 January 2001 not previously recognised for UK GAAP purposes. For UK GAAP purposes fixed maturities are normally carried in the balance sheet at amortised cost rather than market value. Accordingly, movements on unrealised appreciation for these securities, which are accounted for under US GAAP within Other Comprehensive Income, do not feature as a reconciling item in the table shown above.
