NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to net income available to common stockholders, we have consistently utilized non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders and non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders per common share - assuming dilution, non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the life insurance industry, as economic measures to evaluate our financial performance. Non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders equals net income available to common stockholders adjusted to eliminate the impact of items that fluctuate from quarter to quarter in a manner unrelated to core operations, and we believe measures excluding their impact are useful in analyzing operating trends. The most significant adjustments to arrive at non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders eliminate the impact of fair value accounting for our fixed index annuity business. These adjustments are not economic in nature but rather impact the timing of reported results. We believe the combined presentation and evaluation of non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders together with net income available to common stockholders provides information that may enhance an investor's understanding of our underlying results and profitability.

Total notable items (a) $ - $ 10,265 $ 181,890 $ 317,425
(a)Notable items reflect the after-tax increase (decrease) to non-GAAP operating income (loss) available to common stockholders for certain items that do not reflect the company's expected ongoing operations. The presentation of notable items is intended to help investors better understand our results and to evaluate and forecast those results.
For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, non-GAAP operating income available to common stockholders would increase $181.9 million and $317.4 million, respectively, if we were to exclude the impact of notable items. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, non-GAAP operating income available to common stockholders would increase $10.3 million if we were to exclude the impact of notable items.
(b)For periods with a loss, dilutive shares were not included in the calculation as inclusion of such shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.

(a)Total capitalization excluding AOCI, a non-GAAP financial measure, is based on stockholders' equity excluding the effect of AOCI.

Total common stockholders' equity and book value per common share excluding AOCI, non-GAAP financial measures, are based on common stockholders' equity excluding the effect of AOCI. Since AOCI fluctuates from quarter to quarter due to unrealized changes in the fair value of available for sale securities, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information. Total common stockholders' equity and book value per common share excluding AOCI and the net impact of fair value accounting for fixed index annuities, non-GAAP financial measures, are based on common stockholders' equity excluding AOCI and the net impact of fair value accounting for fixed index annuities. Since the net impact of fair value accounting for our fixed index annuity business is not economic in nature but rather impact the timing of reported results, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information.
(d)Book value per common share including and excluding AOCI and book value per common share excluding AOCI and the net impact of fair value accounting for fixed index annuities are calculated as total common stockholders' equity, total common stockholders' equity excluding AOCI and total common stockholders' equity excluding AOCI and the net impact of fair value accounting for fixed index annuities divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.

If all crediting rates were reduced to minimum guaranteed rates (subject to limitations imposed by ultimate minimum guaranteed rates where applicable) the weighted average crediting rate as of December 31, 2022 for the $11.9 billion of account value of fixed annuities and funds allocated to the fixed rate strategy for fixed index annuities would decrease by 0.21%.
If all caps and participation rates were reduced to minimum caps and participation rates and current asset fees were increased to their maximums on the $35.6 billion of account value allocated to index strategies, the cost of options would decrease by 1.03% based upon prices of options for the week ended January 1, 2023.
