The Company may be adversely affected by a third-party vendor who 8 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents operates in a poorly controlled manner or fails to deliver contracted services, which could lower revenues, increase costs, reduce profits, disrupt business, or damage the Company’s reputation.
An increase in interest rates could result in certain policyholders surrendering their life or annuity policies for cash, thereby potentially requiring our insurance subsidiaries to liquidate invested assets if other sources of liquidity are 9 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents not available to meet their obligations.
A downgrade or other negative action by a rating agency with respect to the financial strength ratings of our insurance subsidiaries could negatively affect us by limiting or restricting the ability of our insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends to us and reducing our sales by adversely affecting our ability to sell insurance products through independent insurance agencies. 11 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents Obtaining timely and appropriate premium rate increases for certain supplemental health insurance policies is critical.
Climate change may also influence investor sentiment with respect to the Company and investments in our portfolio. 12 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance Risks Recent volatility in the trading price of our common stock has and can be expected to result in securities class action litigation.
(Refer to Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies under the caption Accounting Pronouncements Yet to be Adopted ) 13 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents Non-compliance with laws or regulations related to customer and consumer privacy and information security, including a failure to ensure that third parties with access to sensitive customer and consumer information maintain its confidentiality, could materially adversely affect our reputation and business operations.
Changes to the Internal Revenue Code, administrative rulings, or court decisions affecting the insurance industry, including the products insurers offer, could increase our effective tax rate and lower our net income, adversely impact our insurance subsidiaries' capital, or limit the ability of our insurance subsidiaries to sell certain of their products. 14 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents Damage to the brand and reputation of Globe Life or its subsidiaries could affect our ability to conduct business.

In addition, our policies, and processes to evaluate and manage these standards in coordination with other business priorities may not prove completely effective or satisfy investors, customers, regulators, or others. 15 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents

If our internal sources of liquidity prove to 10 GL 2024 FORM 10-K Table of Contents be insufficient, we may not be able to successfully obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

For example, in the states where our companies are domiciled, an insurance company generally may pay dividends only out of its unassigned surplus as reflected in its statutory financial statements filed in that state.

Future changes in rules, regulations or interpretations of existing rules and regulations, or significant adverse judgments in litigation, could require us to reclassify all or a portion of our agents as employees and the impact could significantly increase our operating costs and negatively impact our insurance business.

Instances of misconduct or non-compliance or violations of laws or regulations by our independent sales agents could result in adverse findings in either examinations or litigation and subject us to sanctions, monetary liabilities, restrictions on or loss of the operation of our business or reputational harm, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Companies, like us, that are subject to unfavorable allegations, even if untrue, may have to expend a significant amount of resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend themselves, including in connection with securityholder litigation against Globe Life Inc. or investigations by regulators related to or prompted by such allegations.
