The pre-announcement signals a meaningful earnings miss for Q3 relative to the company's own internal targets. Watch the November 5 full release for whether core spread-based earnings (which have been growing) can offset the alternative investment drag, and whether management adjusts its long-term return assumption downward.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
F&G pre-announced Q3 2026 alternative investment income of $47M-$57M (pre-tax), a ~$70M pre-tax shortfall vs its 12% long-term expected return. This is a material earnings headwind for the upcoming quarter, though the company's core spread-based and fee-based operations remain intact.
Key Facts

- Shortfall vs management's 12% long-term expected return: ~$70M pre-tax, ~$55M post-tax
- Full Q3 earnings release scheduled for November 5, 2026, with earnings call on November 6
- Alternative investments include mark-to-market on LPs, LLCs, and COLI, reported on a one-quarter lag

Financial Impact
~$55M post-tax earnings shortfall vs management's long-term expectation for Q3 2026 alternative investment income
Risk Factors
- Alternative investment returns may remain below long-term expectations in a lower-rate or volatile market environment
- Full Q3 results could be materially worse if other items also disappoint
- The one-quarter lag in alternative investment reporting means Q4 2026 could see further weakness if Q3 market conditions persist
