Exhibit 99.1 Preliminary Financial Results for the Second Quarter 2026 The following information summarizes certain preliminary financial results of Athene Holding Ltd.

How this was made
The 30-second read
Why it matters
Traders can use the preliminary income statement, invested assets, and net flow metrics to gauge whether Athene’s spread earnings and liquidity profile are improving or deteriorating, while recognizing the numbers may change materially in the 10-Q.
Market read
This is a primary disclosure of preliminary quarterly financials and flows, which can drive near-term positioning ahead of the full 10-Q.
What to watch
Investors may underweight the income statement and instead focus on the balance-sheet items that drive risk, such as interest-sensitive contract liabilities, market risk benefits, and derivative collateral/payables.
Background
The company filed an SEC Form 8-K with Exhibit 99.1 containing preliminary Q2 2026 results and balance-sheet highlights, stating the final unaudited condensed financials will be filed with the upcoming 10-Q.
Ticker impact
Athene’s 8-K provides preliminary Q2 2026 financial results, including total assets of $472.9B and net flows of $20.9B for six months.
Likely modest, with direction dependent on whether investors focus on net flows, investment income, and spread-related earnings versus the preliminary nature of the numbers.
The filing is a primary disclosure with multiple quantified line items (income, invested assets, flows, spread earnings), but it is explicitly preliminary and subject to change before the 10-Q.
Market effects
Provides a read-through on life insurer/annuity spread performance and liquidity flows, which can influence sentiment across the sector.
Primarily US-focused given the SEC filing and US GAAP reporting context.
Limited direct global impact, but investment income and funding costs are globally relevant for insurers’ asset-liability management.
Counterpoint
Because the figures are preliminary and not yet audited or reviewed by the independent accountant, the market may discount the numbers and wait for the 10-Q.
