\nGenerally Accepted Accounting Principles (\u201cGAAP\u201d) require that we include the changes in unrealized gains (losses) of our equity security investments as a component of investment gains (losses) in our earnings statements. In the table above, investment gains (losses) in 2025 include gains of $9.6 billion in the fourth quarter and $12.9 billion in the full year and in 2024 include gains of $2.1 billion in the fourth quarter and losses of $38.1 billion in the full year due to changes<\/i> during the fourth quarter and the full year in the unrealized<\/i> gains that existed in our equity security investment holdings. Investment gains (losses) in 2025 also include after-tax realized gains on sales of investments of $3.9 billion in the fourth quarter and $17.8 billion in the full year and in 2024 include gains of $3.1 billion in the fourth quarter and $79.6 billion in the full year.<\/p>\n

The amount of investment gains (losses) in any given quarter is usually meaningless and delivers figures for net earnings per share that can be extremely misleading to investors who have little or no knowledge of accounting rules.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures<\/b><\/p>\n

\nThis press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. The reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP figures in accordance with Regulation G are included herein.<\/p>\n

\nBerkshire presents its results in the way it believes will be most meaningful and useful, as well as most transparent, to the investing public and others who use Berkshire\u2019s financial information. That presentation includes the use of certain non-GAAP financial measures. In addition to the GAAP presentations of net earnings, Berkshire shows operating earnings defined as net earnings exclusive of investment gains (losses), impairments of goodwill and intangible assets and other-than-temporary impairments of equity method investments.<\/p>\n

\nAlthough the investment of insurance and reinsurance premiums to generate investment income and investment gains or losses is an integral part of Berkshire\u2019s operations, the generation of investment gains or losses is independent of the insurance underwriting process. Moreover, as previously described, under applicable GAAP accounting requirements, we are required to include the changes in unrealized gains\/losses of our equity security investments as a component of investment gains\/losses in our periodic earnings statements. In sum, investment gains\/losses for any particular period are not indicative of quarterly business performance.<\/p>\n

About Berkshire<\/b><\/p>\n

\nBerkshire Hathaway and its subsidiaries engage in diverse business activities including insurance and reinsurance, utilities and energy, freight rail transportation, manufacturing, services and retailing. Common stock of the company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, trading symbols BRK.A and BRK.B.<\/p>\n
