AMERIPRISE FINANCIAL, INC. (NYSE:AMP) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial ConditionItem 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On July25, 2017, Ameriprise Financial,Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” or “our”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter of 2017. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit99.1 to this Current Report on Form8-K and is incorporated herein by reference and furnished herewith. In addition, the Company furnishes herewith, as Exhibit99.2, its Statistical Supplement for the quarterly period ended June30, 2017.

We follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The press release furnished as Exhibit99.1 and the financial information furnished as Exhibit99.2 include information on both a GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted basis. Certain non-GAAP performance measures in these exhibits exclude the impact of consolidating certain investment entities (“CIEs”), as well as certain integration/restructuring charges, the impact of our annual review of insurance and annuity valuation assumptions and model changes (“unlocking”), market impact on variable annuity guaranteed benefits, market impact on indexed universal life benefits, market impact of hedges to offset interest rate changes on unrealized gains or losses for certain investments, net realized investment gains (losses) and income (loss) from discontinued operations. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures better reflects the underlying performance of our 2017 and 2016 core operations and facilitates a more meaningful trend analysis. Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 also contain certain non-GAAP debt, capital and shareholders’ equity measures, along with financial ratios incorporating such measures that exclude amounts related to one or more of the following: accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), fair value of hedges, unamortized discount, debt issuance costs, capital lease obligations and the impact of consolidating the assets and liabilities of certain CIEs. Management believes that these non-GAAP debt, capital and shareholders’ equity measures, and the corresponding ratios, better represent our capital structure. Management uses certain of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our financial performance on a basis comparable to that used by some securities analysts and investors. Also, certain of these non-GAAP measures are taken into consideration, to varying degrees, for purposes of business planning and analysis and for certain compensation-related matters.

Our non-GAAP financial measures included in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, which our management views as important indicators of financial performance, include the following: adjusted net pretax operating margin; adjusted operating earnings; adjusted operating revenues; basic operating earnings per share; operating earnings; operating earnings per diluted share; operating effective tax rate; operating expenses; operating general and administrative expense; operating return on equity excluding AOCI; operating total net revenues; pretax operating earnings; pretax operating margin; return on equity excluding AOCI; total Ameriprise Financial capital excluding fair value of hedges, unamortized discount, debt issuance costs, capital lease obligations and equity of CIEs; total Ameriprise Financial long-term debt excluding fair value of hedges, unamortized discount, debt issuance costs and capital lease obligations; total Ameriprise Financial long-term debt to total Ameriprise Financial capital excluding fair value of hedges, unamortized discount, debt issuance costs, capital lease obligations and equity of CIEs; total equity excluding AOCI; total equity excluding CIEs; total equity excluding CIEs and AOCI; and various financial measures that exclude the impact of unlocking.
