INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain statements related to future results, or states our intentions, beliefs, and expectations or predictions for the future, all of which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent management’s expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “probably,” “potential,” “looking forward,” “continue,” and other similar terms, and future or conditional tense verbs like “could,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “will,” and “would.” You can also identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. For example, we may use forward-looking statements when addressing topics such as: market and industry conditions, including competitive and pricing trends; changes in our business strategies and methods of generating revenue; the development and performance of our services and products; changes in the composition or level of our revenues; our cost structure and the outcome of cost-saving or restructuring initiatives; the outcome of contingencies; dividend policy; the expected impact of acquisitions, dispositions, and other significant transactions or the termination thereof; litigation and regulatory matters; pension obligations; cash flow and liquidity; expected effective tax rate; expected foreign currency translation impacts; potential changes in laws or future actions by regulators; and the impact of changes in accounting rules. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from either historical or anticipated results depending on a variety of factors. Potential factors, which may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could impact results include:
•changes in the competitive environment, due to macroeconomic conditions (including impacts from instability in the banking or commercial real estate sectors) or otherwise, or damage to our reputation;
•fluctuations in currency exchange, interest or inflation rates that could impact our financial condition or results;
•changes in global equity and fixed income markets that could affect the return on invested assets;
•changes in the funded status of our various defined benefit pension plans and the impact of any increased pension funding resulting from those changes;
•the level of our debt and the terms thereof reducing our flexibility or increasing borrowing costs;
•rating agency actions that could limit our access to capital and our competitive position;
•our global tax rate being subject to a variety of different factors, including the adoption and implementation in the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, or other countries of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development tax proposals or other pending proposals in those and other countries, which could create volatility in that tax rate;
•changes in our accounting estimates and assumptions on our financial statements;
•limits on our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or otherwise make payments to us;
•the impact of legal proceedings and other contingencies, including those arising from acquisition or disposition transactions, errors and omissions and other claims against us;
•the impact of, and potential challenges in complying with, laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate, particularly given the global nature of operations and the possibility of differing or conflicting laws and regulations, or the application or interpretation thereof, across such jurisdictions;
•the impact of any regulatory investigations brought in Ireland, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other countries;
•failure to protect intellectual property rights or allegations that we have infringed on the intellectual property rights of others;
•general economic and political conditions in the countries in which we do business around the world;
•the failure to retain, attract and develop experienced and qualified personnel;
•international risks associated with our global operations, including impacts from military conflicts or political instability, such as the ongoing Russian war in Ukraine;
•the effects of natural or man-made disasters, including the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other health pandemics and the impacts of climate change;

•any system or network disruption or breach resulting in operational interruption or improper disclosure of confidential, personal, or proprietary data, and resulting liabilities or damage to our reputation;
•our ability to develop, implement, update and enhance new technology;
•the actions taken by third parties that perform aspects of our business operations and client services;
•the extent to which we are exposed to certain risks, including lawsuits, related to our actions we may take in being responsible for making decisions on behalf of clients in our investment businesses or in other advisory services that we currently provide, or will provide in the future;
•our ability to continue, and the costs and risks associated with, growing, developing and integrating acquired business, and entering into new lines of business or products;
•our ability to secure regulatory approval and complete transactions, and the costs and risks associated with the failure to consummate proposed transactions;
•changes in commercial property and casualty markets, commercial premium rates or methods of compensation;
•our ability to develop and implement innovative growth strategies and initiatives intended to yield cost savings and the ability to achieve such growth or cost savings; and
•the effects of Irish law on our operating flexibility and the enforcement of judgments against us.
Any or all of our forward-looking statements may turn out to be inaccurate, and there are no guarantees about our performance. The factors identified above are not exhaustive. Aon and its subsidiaries operate in a dynamic business environment in which new risks may emerge frequently. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they are made. We are under no (and expressly disclaim any) obligation to update or alter any forward-looking statement that we may make from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Further information about factors that could materially affect Aon, including our results of operations and financial condition, is contained in the “Risk Factors” section in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
These factors may be revised or supplemented in our subsequent periodic filings with the SEC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Aon plc and all of its controlled subsidiaries (“Aon” or the “Company”). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of operating results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of reserves and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management believes its estimates to be reasonable given the current facts available. Aon adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity markets, and foreign currency exchange rate movements increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment would, if applicable, be reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.
2. Accounting Principles and Practices
All issued, but not yet effective, guidance has been deemed not applicable or not significant to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2023, to further its pension de-risking strategy, the Company settled certain pension obligations in the Netherlands through the purchase of annuities, where certain pension assets were liquidated to purchase the annuities. A non-cash settlement charge totaling $27 million was recognized in the second quarter of 2023.
In the first quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a non-cash settlement charge of approximately $1 million. Settlements from a certain U.S. pension plan exceeded the plan’s service and interest cost. This triggered settlement accounting which required the immediate recognition of a portion of the accumulated losses associated with the plan.
Contributions
Assuming no additional contributions are agreed to with, or required by, the pension plan trustees, the Company expects to make total cash contributions of approximately $4 million, $43 million, and $14 million, (at December 31, 2022 exchange rates) to its significant U.K., U.S., and other major pension plans, respectively, during 2023.

12. Derivatives and Hedging
The Company is exposed to market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage the risk related to these exposures, the Company enters into various derivative instruments that reduce these risks by creating offsetting exposures. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes.
Foreign Exchange Risk Management
The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk when it earns revenues, pays expenses, enters into monetary intercompany transfers or other transactions denominated in a currency that differs from its functional currency. The Company uses foreign exchange derivatives, typically forward contracts, options and cross currency swaps, to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows. These exposures are hedged, on average, for less than two years. These derivatives are accounted for as hedges, and changes in fair value are recorded each period in Other comprehensive income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The Company also uses foreign exchange derivatives, typically forward contracts and options, to economically hedge the currency exposure of the Company’s global liquidity profile, including monetary assets or liabilities that are denominated in a non-functional currency of an entity, typically on a rolling 90-day basis, but may be for up to one year in the future. These derivatives are not accounted for as hedges, and changes in fair value are recorded each period in Other income (expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The notional and fair values of derivative instruments are as follows (in millions):

| Notional Amount |  | Net Amount of Derivative Assets Presented in the Statements of Financial Position (1) |  | Net Amount of Derivative Liabilities Presented in the Statements of Financial Position (2)

three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $15 million and gain of $17 million, respectively, in Other income (expense) for foreign exchange derivatives not designated or qualifying as hedges.
13. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Accounting standards establish a three tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:
•Level 1 — observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets in active markets;
•Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices for identical assets in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
•Level 3 — unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data which requires the use of valuation techniques and the development of assumptions.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments:
Money market funds consist of institutional prime, treasury, and government money market funds. The Company reviews treasury and government money market funds to obtain reasonable assurance that the fund net asset value is $1 per share, and reviews the floating net asset value of institutional prime money market funds for reasonableness.
Equity investments consist of equity securities and equity derivatives valued using the closing stock price on a national securities exchange. Over-the-counter equity derivatives are valued using observable inputs such as underlying prices of the underlying security and volatility. On a sample basis, the Company reviews the listing of Level 1 equity securities in the portfolio, agrees the closing stock prices to a national securities exchange, and independently verifies the observable inputs for Level 2 equity derivatives and securities.
Fixed income investments consist of certain categories of bonds and derivatives. Corporate, government, and agency bonds are valued by pricing vendors who estimate fair value using recently executed transactions and proprietary models based on observable inputs, such as interest rate spreads, yield curves, and credit risk. Asset-backed securities are valued by pricing vendors who estimate fair value using DCF models utilizing observable inputs based on trade and quote activity of securities with similar features. Fixed income derivatives are valued by pricing vendors using observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves. The Company obtains an understanding of the models, inputs, and assumptions used in developing prices provided by its vendors through discussions with the fund managers. The Company independently verifies the observable inputs, as well as assesses assumptions used for reasonableness based on relevant market conditions and internal Company guidelines. If an assumption is deemed unreasonable, based on internal Company guidelines, it is then reviewed by management and the fair value estimate provided by the vendor is adjusted, if deemed appropriate. These adjustments do not occur frequently and historically are not material to the fair value estimates used in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Derivatives are carried at fair value, based upon industry standard valuation techniques that use, where possible, current market-based or independently sourced pricing inputs, such as interest rates, currency exchange rates, or implied volatility.
Debt is carried at outstanding principal balance, less any unamortized issuance costs, discount or premium. Fair value is based on quoted market prices or estimates using DCF analyses based on current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

14. Claims, Lawsuits, and Other Contingencies
Legal
Aon and its subsidiaries are subject to numerous claims, tax assessments, lawsuits, and proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, which frequently include E&O claims. The damages claimed in these matters are or may be substantial, including, in many instances, claims for punitive, treble, or extraordinary damages. While Aon maintains meaningful E&O insurance and other insurance programs to provide protection against certain losses that arise in such matters, Aon has exhausted or materially depleted its coverage under some of the policies that protect the Company and, consequently, is self-insured or materially self-insured for some claims. Accruals for these exposures, and related insurance receivables, when
23

applicable, are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and have been recognized in Other general expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income to the extent that losses are deemed probable and are reasonably estimable. These amounts are adjusted from time to time as developments warrant. Matters that are not probable and reasonably estimable are not accrued for in the financial statements.
The Company’s contingencies and exposures are subject to significant uncertainties, and the determination of likelihood of a loss and estimating any such loss can be complex. The Company is therefore, in certain matters, unable to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss. Although management at present believes that the ultimate outcome of such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of Aon, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings or other events. Unfavorable resolutions could include substantial monetary or punitive damages imposed on Aon or its subsidiaries. If unfavorable outcomes of these matters were to occur, future results of operations or cash flows for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially adversely affected. Certain significant legal proceedings involving us or our subsidiaries are described below.
Current Matters
Aon Hewitt Investment Consulting, Inc., now known as Aon Investments USA, Inc. (“Aon Investments”), Lowe’s Companies, Inc. and the Administrative Committee of Lowe’s Companies, Inc. (collectively “Lowe’s”) were sued on April 27, 2018 in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the “Court”) in a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of participants in the Lowe’s 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”). Aon Investments provided investment consulting services to Lowe’s under ERISA. The plaintiffs contend that in 2015 Lowe’s imprudently placed the Hewitt Growth Fund in the Plan’s lineup of investments, the Hewitt Growth Fund underperformed its benchmarks, and that Aon had a conflict of interest in recommending the proprietary fund for the Plan. The plaintiffs allege the Plan suffered over $200 million in investment losses when compared to the eight funds it replaced. The plaintiffs allege that Aon Investments breached its duties of loyalty and prudence pursuant to ERISA. The matter was tried to the Court the last week of June 2021, and the Court entered judgment in favor of Aon on all claims on October 12, 2021. Plaintiffs filed an appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, and oral argument took place on December 7, 2022. On July 17, 2023, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued an opinion affirming the Court’s judgment in favor of Aon. Barring Fourth Circuit rehearing (which plaintiffs must request by July 31, 2023) or Supreme Court review by certiorari (for which a petition or a request for extension must be filed by October 16, 2023), the judgment in Aon’s favor will become final. In the event of further appellate proceedings, Aon believes the Fourth Circuit correctly decided the matter and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against these claims.
Aon faces legal action arising out of a fatal plane crash in November 2016. Aon U.K. Limited placed an aviation civil liability reinsurance policy for the Bolivian insurer of the airline. After the crash, the insurer determined that there was no coverage under the airline’s insurance policy due to the airline’s breach of various policy conditions. In November 2018, the owner of the aircraft filed a claim in Bolivia against Aon, the airline, the insurer and the insurance broker. The claim is for $16 million plus any liability the owner has to third parties. In November 2019, a federal prosecutor in Brazil filed a public civil action naming three Aon entities as defendants, along with the airline, the insurer and the lead reinsurer. That claim seeks pecuniary damages for families affected by the crash in the sum of $300 million; or, in the alternative, $50 million; or, in the alternative, $25 million; plus “moral damages” of an equivalent sum. Separately, in March 2020, the Brazilian Federal Senate invited Aon to give evidence to a Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry in an investigation into the accident. Aon cooperated with that inquiry. In August 2020, 43 individuals (surviving passengers and estates of the deceased) filed a motion in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida, seeking permission to commence proceedings against Aon (and the insurer and reinsurers) for claims totaling $844 million. Finally, in April 2021, representatives of 16 passengers issued a claim against Aon in the High Court in England seeking damages under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976 in the sum of £29 million ($37 million at June 30, 2023 exchange rates). In December 2022, the High Court in England granted an anti-suit injunction, restricting the 43 individuals who previously filed a motion in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit in and for Miami Dade County, Florida, from continuing litigation in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit against Aon. Aon believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself against the remaining claims.
Certain of the Company’s clients and counterparties have initiated or indicated that they may initiate legal proceedings against the Company following allegations in July 2023 that fraudulent letters of credit were issued in the name of third-party banks in connection with transactions for which capital was arranged by Vesttoo Ltd. (“Vesttoo”). Vesttoo is one of the third parties that identifies capital providers to collateralize insurance and reinsurance obligations of the Company’s clients and counterparties. In certain transactions in which Vesttoo identified third party capital providers to collateralize reinsurance obligations, including transactions in which the Company or its affiliates provided brokerage or other services, some letters of credit from third party banks are alleged to have been fraudulent. The Company is actively investigating those allegations. The pending or threatened legal proceedings against the Company allege, among other theories of liability, that in certain circumstances the Company failed to comply with its alleged duty to procure appropriate letters of credit. Aon believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims and to seek recourse against third parties where
24

appropriate. In addition, certain Bermuda regulatory authorities have initiated investigations or inquiries into this matter, and other regulatory authorities could initiate investigations or proceedings against the Company or third parties.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
The Company provides a variety of guarantees and indemnifications to its customers and others. The maximum potential amount of future payments represents the notional amounts that could become payable under the guarantees and indemnifications if there were a total default by the guaranteed parties, without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or other methods. These amounts may bear no relationship to the expected future payments, if any, for these guarantees and indemnifications. Any anticipated amounts payable are included in the Financial Statements, and are recorded at fair value.
The Company expects that, as prudent business interests dictate, additional guarantees and indemnifications may be issued from time to time.
Guarantee of Registered Securities
On June 22, 2023, Aon plc, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc, Aon Corporation, and Aon North America, Inc., and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as applicable, entered into supplemental indentures, each dated June 22, 2023, amending each of the following indentures (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time) to add for the benefit of the holders of the instruments issued thereunder a full and unconditional guarantee of Aon North America, Inc. thereunder: (i) Second Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon Corporation, Aon plc, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 2, 2012, amending and restating the Indenture, dated January 13, 1997); (ii) Second Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon Corporation, Aon plc, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 2, 2012, amending and restating the Indenture, dated September 10, 2010); (iii) Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon plc, Aon Corporation, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Indenture, dated December 12, 2012); (iv) Second Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon plc, Aon Corporation, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated May 20, 2015, amending and restating the Indenture, dated May 24, 2013); (v) Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon plc, Aon Corporation, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Indenture, dated November 13, 2015); and (vi) Amended and Restated Indenture, dated April 1, 2020, among Aon Corporation, Aon plc, Aon Global Limited, Aon Global Holdings plc and the Trustee (amending and restating the Indenture, dated December 3, 2018).
Letters of Credit
Aon has entered into a number of arrangements whereby the Company’s performance on certain obligations is guaranteed by a third party through the issuance of LOCs. The Company had total LOCs outstanding of approximately $79 million at June 30, 2023, and $74 million at December 31, 2022. These LOCs cover the beneficiaries related to certain of Aon’s U.S. and Canadian non-qualified pension plan schemes and secure deductible retentions for Aon’s own workers compensation program. The Company has also obtained LOCs to cover contingent payments for taxes and other business obligations to third parties, and other guarantees for miscellaneous purposes at its international subsidiaries.
Premium Payments
The Company has certain contractual contingent guarantees for premium payments owed by clients to certain insurance companies. The maximum exposure with respect to such contractual contingent guarantees was approximately $135 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $173 million at December 31, 2022.
15. Segment Information
The Company operates as one segment that includes all of Aon’s operations, which as a global professional services firm provides a broad range of risk and human capital solutions through four solution lines — Commercial risk, Reinsurance, Health, and Wealth, which make up its principal products and services. The CODM assesses the performance of the Company and allocates resources based on one segment: Aon United.
The Company’s reportable operating segment has been determined using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which the CODM uses financial information for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating performance. The CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on total Aon results against its key four metrics,
25

expense discipline, and collaborative behaviors that maximize value for Aon and its shareholders, regardless of which solution line it benefits.
As Aon operates as one segment, segment profit or loss is consistent with consolidated reporting as disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Refer to Note 3 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” for further information on revenue by principal service line.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF SECOND QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Management remains focused on strengthening Aon and uniting the firm with one portfolio of capability enabled by data and analytics and one operating model to deliver additional insight, connectivity, and efficiency.
Financial Results
The following is a summary of our second quarter of 2023 financial results.
•Revenue increased $194 million, or 7%, to $3.2 billion compared to the prior year period reflecting organic revenue growth of 6% and a 2% favorable impact from fiduciary investment income, partially offset by a 1% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased $395 million, or 6%, to $7.0 billion compared to the prior year period due primarily to organic revenue growth of 7% and a 2% favorable impact from fiduciary investment income, partially offset by a 2% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation and a 1% unfavorable impact from acquisitions, divestitures, and other.
•Total operating expenses in the second quarter increased 2% to $2.3 billion compared to the prior year period due primarily to an increase in expense associated with 6% organic revenue growth and investments in long-term growth, partially offset by a decrease in certain legal settlements in the prior year period of $58 million that did not repeat in the second quarter of 2023. Operating expenses for the first six months of 2023 were $4.7 billion, an increase of $147 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to an increase in expense related to 7% organic revenue growth and investments in long-term growth, partially offset by a $77 million favorable impact from foreign currency translation and a decrease in certain legal settlements in the prior year period of $58 million that did not repeat in the first six months of 2023.
•Operating margin increased to 26.5% from 23.5% in the prior year period. The increase was driven by organic revenue growth of 6%, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses as listed above. Operating margin for the first six months of 2023 increased to 32.8% from 31.1% in the prior period. The increase was primarily driven by organic revenue growth of 7%, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses as listed above.
•Due to the factors set forth above, Net income increased $61 million, or 12%, to $575 million compared to the prior year period. For the first six months of 2023, Net income increased $92 million, or 6%, to $1.7 billion compared to the first six months of 2022.
•Diluted earnings per share was $2.71 compared to $2.33 per share for the prior year period. During the first six months of 2023, diluted earnings per share was $7.79 compared to $7.07 per share for the prior period.
•Cash flows provided by operations for the first six months of 2023 was flat at $1.1 billion compared to the prior year period, primarily due to strong operating income growth, offset in part by higher cash tax payments.
We focus on four key metrics not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP that we communicate to shareholders: organic revenue growth, adjusted operating margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow. These non-GAAP metrics should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The following is our measure of performance against these four metrics for the second quarter of 2023:
•Organic revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure defined under the caption “Review of Consolidated Results — Organic Revenue Growth.” Organic revenue growth was 6% for the second quarter of 2023, driven by ongoing strong retention, management of the renewal book, and net new business generation. Organic revenue growth was 7% for the first six months of 2023, driven by ongoing strong retention and net new business generation.
•Adjusted operating margin, a non-GAAP measure defined under the caption “Review of Consolidated Results — Adjusted Operating Margin,” was 27.3% for the second quarter of 2023 compared to 26.2% in the prior year period. The increase in adjusted operating margin primarily reflects organic revenue growth and increased fiduciary investment income, partially offset by increased expenses and investments in long-term growth. For the first six months of 2023, adjusted operating margin was 33.6% compared to 32.7% for the prior year period. The increase primarily reflects organic revenue growth and increased fiduciary investment income, partially offset by increased expenses and investments in long-term growth.
27

•Adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure defined under the caption “Review of Consolidated Results — Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share,” was $2.76 per share for the second quarter of 2023 and $7.93 per share for the first six months of 2023, compared to $2.63 and $7.47 per share for the respective prior year periods.
•Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure defined under the caption “Review of Consolidated Results — Free Cash Flow,” decreased in the first six months of 2023 by $77 million from the prior year period, to $986 million, reflecting flat cash flows from operations and a $77 million increase in capital expenditures.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE
For many companies, the management of ESG risks and opportunities has become increasingly important, and ESG-related challenges, such as extreme weather events, supply chain disruptions, cyber events, regulatory changes, ongoing public health impacts, and the increased focus on workforce resilience in various work environments, continue to create volatility and uncertainty for our clients. At Aon, helping clients manage risk - including ESG risk - is at the core of what we do. Aon offers a wide range of risk assessment, consulting, and advisory solutions, many of which are significant parts of our core business offerings, designed to address and manage ESG issues for clients, and to enable our clients to create more sustainable value. We see significant opportunity in enhancing our impact and delivering innovative client solutions on ESG matters.

Revenue
Total revenue increased $194 million, or 7%, to $3.2 billion, compared to the prior year period, with organic revenue growth of 6%, driven by ongoing strong retention, management of the renewal book, and net new business generation, and a 2% favorable impact from fiduciary investment income, partially offset by a 1% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased by $395 million, or 6% compared to the prior year period. This increase reflects organic revenue growth of 7% and 2% favorable impact from fiduciary investment income, partially offset by a
28

2% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation and a 1% unfavorable impact from acquisitions, divestitures, and other.
Commercial Risk Solutions revenue increased $82 million, or 5%, to $1.8 billion in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $1.7 billion in the second quarter of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 5% in the second quarter of 2023, reflecting strong growth across most major geographies driven by strong retention, management of the renewal book, and net new business generation. Growth in retail brokerage was highlighted by double-digit growth in Asia and the Pacific, driven by continued strength in core P&C. The U.S. grew modestly driven by strength in core businesses, partially offset by the impact of the external M&A and IPO markets on M&A services. Results also reflect strong growth globally in the affinity business across both consumer and business solutions. On average globally, exposures and pricing were positive, resulting in a modestly positive market impact. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased $141 million, or 4%, to $3.6 billion, compared to $3.4 billion in the first six months of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 6% in the first six months of 2023, reflecting growth across every major geography, driven by strong retention, management of the renewal book, and net new business generation.
Reinsurance Solutions revenue increased $70 million, or 13%, to $607 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $537 million in the second quarter of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 9% in the second quarter of 2023, reflecting strong growth in treaty, driven by strong retention and continued net new business generation, as well as double-digit growth in both facultative placements and investment banking, and solid growth in the Strategy and Technology Group. Market impact was modestly positive on results in the quarter. The majority of revenue in our treaty portfolio is recurring in nature and is recorded in connection with the major renewal periods that take place throughout the first half of the year. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased $171 million, or 11%, to $1.7 billion, compared to $1.5 billion in the first six months of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 9% in the first six months of 2023, driven by strong retention and net new business generation.
Health Solutions revenue increased $33 million, or 8%, to $447 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $414 million in the second quarter of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 10% in the second quarter of 2023, reflecting strong growth globally in core health and benefits brokerage primarily from net new business generation and management of the renewal book. Strength in the core was highlighted by double-digit growth in Latin America, EMEA, and the U.K. Results also reflect modest growth in Talent, driven by data and advisory solutions. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased $66 million, or 6%, to $1.1 billion, compared to the first six months of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 9% in the first six months of 2023, reflecting strong growth globally in core health and benefits brokerage, driven by strong retention and management of the renewal book.
Wealth Solutions revenue increased $9 million, or 3%, to $352 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $343 million in the second quarter of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 2% in the second quarter of 2023, reflecting growth in Retirement, driven by advisory demand and project-related work related to pension de-risking and ongoing impact of regulatory changes. In Investments, a decrease in AUM-based delegated investment management revenue due to equity market and interest rate movements was partially offset by advisory demand and project-related work. For the first six months of 2023, revenue increased $14 million, or 2%, to $702 million, compared to $688 million in the first six months of 2022. Organic revenue growth was 4% in the first six months of 2023, reflecting growth in Retirement, driven by advisory demand and project-related work related to pension de-risking and ongoing impact of regulatory changes.
Compensation and Benefits
Compensation and benefits expense increased $115 million, or 7%, compared to the prior year period due primarily to an increase in expense associated with 6% organic revenue growth, partially offset by an $8 million favorable impact from foreign currency translation. For the first six months of 2023, compensation and benefits increased $140 million, or 4%, compared to the first six months of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in expense associated with 7% organic revenue growth, partially offset by a $63 million favorable impact from foreign currency translation.
Information Technology
Information technology expenses, which represent costs associated with supporting and maintaining our infrastructure, increased $14 million, or 12%, compared to the prior year period due primarily to ongoing investments in Aon Business Services-enabled technology platforms to drive long-term growth and continued investment in core infrastructure and security. For the first six months of 2023, information technology increased $30 million, or 13%, compared to the first six months of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by ongoing investments in Aon Business Services-enabled technology platforms to drive long-term growth and continued investment in core infrastructure and security.
Premises
Premises expenses, which represent the cost of occupying offices in various locations throughout the world, decreased $5 million, or 7%, in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year period due primarily to a one-time $4 million benefit

associated with steps taken to optimize our real estate footprint. For the first six months of 2023, premises expenses decreased $2 million, or 1%, compared to the first six months of 2022.
Depreciation of Fixed Assets
Depreciation of fixed assets primarily relates to software, leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, computer equipment, buildings, and automobiles. Depreciation of fixed assets decreased $1 million, or 3%, in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year period. For the first six months of 2023, depreciation of fixed assets decreased $1 million, or 1%, compared to the first six months of 2022.
Amortization and Impairment of Intangible Assets
Amortization and impairment of intangible assets primarily relates to finite-lived customer-related and contract-based assets as well as technology and other assets. Amortization and impairment of intangible assets was flat in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year period. For the first six months of 2023, amortization and impairment of intangibles decreased $3 million, or 6%, compared to the first six months of 2022.
Other General Expense
Other general expense in the second quarter of 2023 decreased $71 million, or 18%, compared to the prior year period due primarily to a $58 mill ion charge in connection with certain legal settlements in the prior period that did not repeat in the second quarter of 2023. For the first six months of 2023, other general expense decreased $17 million, or 3%, compared to the prior year period due primarily to a $58 million charge in connection with certain legal settlements in the prior year period that did not repeat in the first six months of 2023, partially offset by an increase in expense associated with 7% organic revenue growth.
Interest Income
Interest income represents income, net of expense, earned on operating cash balances and other income-producing investments. It does not include interest earned on funds held on behalf of clients. During the second quarter of 2023, interest income was flat compared to the prior year period. For the first six months of 2023, interest income increased $2 million to $10 million compared to the first six months of 2022.
Interest Expense
Interest expense, which represents the cost of our debt obligations, increased $28 million to $130 million during the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year period, reflecting an increase in total debt and higher interest rates, as well as an $11 million non-recurring charge in the quarter. For the first six months of 2023, interest expense increased $48 million to $241 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was driven primarily by an increase in total debt and higher interest rates and includes an $11 million non-recurring charge.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $89 million compared to the prior year period. Other expense was $59 million for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to a non-cash pension settlement charge of $27 million and an expense from the unfavorable impact of exchange rates on the remeasurement of assets and liabilities in non-functional currencies. Other income was $30 million for the second quarter of 2022 due primarily to an expense from the unfavorable impact of exchange rates on the remeasurement of assets and liabilities in non-functional currencies. Other income (expense) for first six months of 2023 decreased $139 million compared to the prior year period. Other expense was $84 million for the first six months of 2023, primarily due a non-cash pension settlement charge of $27 million and expense from the unfavorable impact of exchange rates on the remeasurement of assets and liabilities in non-functional currencies. Other income was $55 million for the first six months of 2022 primarily due to gains on the sales of businesses.
Income before Income Taxes
Due to the factors discussed above, Income before income taxes for the second quarter of 2023 was $658 million, a 4% increase from $633 million in the second quarter of 2022. For the first six months of 2023, income before income taxes was $2.0 billion, a 3% increase from $1.9 billion for the first six months of 2022.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate on Net income was 12.6% and 17.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate on Net income was 18.8% and 19.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
30

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the tax rate was primarily driven by the geographical distribution of income and certain discrete items, including the tax benefits associated with share-based payments and the anticipated sale of certain assets and liabilities classified as held for sale.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the tax rate was primarily driven by the geographical distribution of income and certain discrete items, primarily the favorable impact of share-based payments.
We continue to monitor the manner in which countries will enact legislation to implement the Pillar Two framework proposed by the OECD, which proposes a 15% global corporate minimum tax. Pursuant to a directive adopted by the E.U., E.U. member states (including Ireland) are required to enact domestic legislation implementing Pillar Two by the end of 2023 to be effective January 1, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that this may have on its global effective tax rate, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition beginning in 2024.
Net Income Attributable to Aon Shareholders
Net income attributable to Aon shareholders for the second quarter of 2023 increased to $560 million, or $2.71 per diluted share, from $501 million, or $2.33 per diluted share, in the prior year period. Net income attributable to Aon shareholders for the first six months of 2023 increased to $1.6 billion, or $7.79 per diluted share, from $1.5 billion, or $7.07 per diluted share, in the prior year period.
Non-GAAP Metrics
In our discussion of consolidated results, we sometimes refer to certain non-GAAP supplemental information derived from consolidated financial information specifically related to organic revenue growth, adjusted operating margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted net income attributable to Aon shareholders, adjusted net income per share, other income (expense), as adjusted, adjusted effective tax rate, free cash flow, and the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on operating results. Management believes that these measures are important to make meaningful period-to-period comparisons and that this supplemental information is helpful to investors. Management also uses these measures to assess operating performance and performance for compensation. This non-GAAP supplemental information should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Organic Revenue Growth
We use supplemental information related to organic revenue growth to help us and our investors evaluate business growth from existing operations. Organic revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure that includes the impact of certain intercompany activity and excludes the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, fiduciary investment income, acquisitions, divestitures, transfers between revenue lines, and gains or losses on derivatives accounted for as hedges. This supplemental information related to organic revenue growth represents a measure not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Industry peers provide similar supplemental information about their revenue performance, although they may not make identical adjustments. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the reported Total revenue is as follows (in millions, except percentages):

Adjusted Operating Margin
We use adjusted operating margin as a non-GAAP measure of our core operating performance. Adjusted operating margin excludes the impact of certain items, as listed below, because management does not believe these expenses are the best indicators of our core operating performance. This supplemental information related to adjusted operating margin represents a measure not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share
We use adjusted diluted earnings per share as a non-GAAP measure of our core operating performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the impact of certain items, as listed below, because management does not believe these expenses are the best indicators of our core operating performance. This supplemental information related to adjusted diluted earnings per share represents a measure not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to reported diluted earnings per share is as follows (in millions, except per share data and percentages):

Free Cash Flow
We use free cash flow, defined as cash flow provided by operations less capital expenditures, as a non-GAAP measure of our core operating performance and cash-generating capabilities of our business operations. This supplemental information related to free cash flow represents a measure not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, not instead of, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The use of this non-GAAP measure does not imply or represent the residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the reported Cash provided by operating activities is as follows (in millions):

Impact of Foreign Exchange Rate Fluctuations
Because we conduct business in over 120 countries and sovereignties, foreign exchange rate fluctuations may have a significant impact on our business. Foreign exchange rate movements may be significant and may distort true period-to-period comparisons of changes in revenue or pretax income. Therefore, to give financial statement users meaningful information about our operations, we have provided an illustration of the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on our financial results. The methodology used to calculate this impact isolates the impact of the change in currencies between periods by translating the prior year quarter’s revenue, expenses, and net income using the current quarter’s foreign exchange rates.
Currency fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of $0.05 and an unfavorable impact of $0.19 on net income per diluted share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, if prior year period results were translated at current period foreign exchange rates. Currency fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of $0.09 and an unfavorable impact of $0.28 on net income per diluted share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 if 2021 results were translated at 2022 rates.
Currency fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of $0.05 and an unfavorable impact of $0.19 on adjusted diluted earnings per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, if prior year period results were translated at current period foreign exchange rates. Currency fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of $0.10 and an unfavorable impact of $0.29 on adjusted diluted earnings per share during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 if 2021 results were translated at 2022 rates. These translations are performed for comparative and illustrative purposes only and do not impact the accounting policies or practices for amounts included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity
Executive Summary
We believe that our balance sheet and strong cash flow provide us with adequate liquidity. Our primary sources of liquidity in the near-term include cash flows provided by operations and available cash reserves; primary sources of liquidity in the long-term include cash flows provided by operations, debt capacity available under our credit facilities, and capital markets. Our primary uses of liquidity are operating expenses and investments, capital expenditures, acquisitions, share repurchases, pension obligations, and shareholder dividends. We believe that cash flows from operations, available credit facilities, available cash reserves, and the capital markets will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, including principal and interest payments on debt obligations, capital expenditures, pension contributions, and anticipated working capital requirements in the next twelve months and over the long-term.
Cash on our balance sheet includes funds available for general corporate purposes, as well as amounts restricted as to their use. Funds held on behalf of clients in a fiduciary capacity are segregated and shown together with uncollected insurance premiums in Fiduciary assets in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, with a corresponding amount in Fiduciary liabilities.
In our capacity as an insurance broker or agent, we collect premiums from insureds and, after deducting our commission, remit the premiums to the respective insurance underwriters. We also collect claims or refunds from underwriters on behalf of insureds, which are then returned to the insureds. Unremitted insurance premiums and claims are held by us in a fiduciary capacity. The levels of funds held on behalf of clients and liabilities can fluctuate significantly depending on when we collect the premiums, claims, and refunds, make payments to underwriters and insureds, and collect funds from clients and make
35

payments on their behalf, and upon the impact of foreign currency movements. Funds held on behalf of clients, because of their nature, are generally invested in very liquid securities with highly rated, credit-worthy financial institutions. Fiduciary assets include funds held on behalf of clients comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $7.5 billion and $6.4 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and fiduciary receivables of $10.7 billion and $9.5 billion at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. While we earn investment income on the funds held in cash and money market funds, the funds cannot be used for general corporate purposes.
We maintain multicurrency cash pools with third-party banks in which various Aon entities participate. Individual Aon entities are permitted to overdraw on their individual accounts provided the overall global balance does not fall below zero. At June 30, 2023, cash balances of one or more non-U.S. entities may have been negative; however, the overall balance was positive.
The following table summarizes our Cash and cash equivalents, Short-term investments, and Fiduciary assets as of June 30, 2023 (in millions):

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was flat compared to the prior year period at $1.1 billion. This amount represents Net income reported, generally adjusted for the following primary drivers including gains from sales of businesses, losses from sales of businesses, share-based compensation expense, depreciation expense, amortization and impairments, and other non-cash income and expenses. Adjustments also include changes in working capital that relate primarily to the timing of payments of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and collection of receivables.

Pension contributions were $31 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $40 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. For the remainder of 2023, we expect to contribute approximately $30 million in cash to our pension plans, including contributions to non-U.S. pension plans, which are subject to changes in foreign exchange rates.
Investing Activities
Cash flow provided by investing activities was $128 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $253 million compared to $125 million of Cash flow used for investing activities in the prior year period. Generally, the primary drivers of cash flow provided by investing activities are sales of businesses, sales of short-term investments, and proceeds from investments. Generally, the primary drivers of cash flow used for investing activities are acquisition of businesses, purchases of short-term investments, capital expenditures, and payments for investments. The gains and losses corresponding to cash flows provided by proceeds from investments and used for payments for investments are primarily recognized in Other income (expense) in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Short-term Investments
Short-term investments decreased $252 million as compared to December 31, 2022. As disclosed in Note 13 “Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments” of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report, the majority of our investments carried at fair value are money market funds. These money market funds are held throughout the world with various financial institutions. We are not aware of any market liquidity issues that would materially impact the fair value of these investments.
Acquisitions and Dispositions of Businesses
During the first six months of 2023, we completed one acquisition. Cash consideration transferred, net of cash and funds held on behalf of clients acquired, was $8 million, which includes $2 million related to acquisitions completed in 2022. During the first six months of 2022, we completed two acquisitions. Cash consideration transferred, net of cash and funds held on behalf of clients acquired, was $143 million.
During the first six months of 2023, we completed no dispositions. During the first six months of 2022, three businesses were sold for $22 million, net of cash and funds held on behalf of clients.
Capital Expenditures
Our additions to fixed assets, including capitalized software, amounted to $145 million and $68 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily relate to the refurbishing and modernizing of office facilities, software development costs, and computer equipment purchases. In the current period, we continue to support certain technology projects to drive long-term growth and real estate projects to align with our Smart Working strategy.
Financing Activities
Cash flow used for financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $39 million, an increase of $2 million compared to $37 million of Cash flow used for financing activities in the prior year period. Generally, the primary drivers of cash flow used for financing activities are repayments of debt, share repurchases, cash paid for employee taxes on withholding shares, dividends paid to shareholders, transactions with noncontrolling interests, and other financing activities, such as collection of or payments for deferred consideration in connection with prior year business acquisitions and divestitures. Generally, the primary drivers of cash flow provided by financing activities are issuances of debt, changes in net fiduciary liabilities, and proceeds from issuance of shares.
Share Repurchase Program
We have a share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors. The Repurchase Program was established in April 2012 with $5.0 billion in authorized repurchases, and was increased by $5.0 billion in authorized repurchases in each of November 2014, June 2017, and November 2020, and by $7.5 billion in February 2022 for a total of $27.5 billion in repurchase authorizations.
The following table summarizes our share repurchase activity (in millions, except per share data):

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Shares repurchased | 1.7 |  |  | 1.7 |  |  | 3.5 |  |  | 4.5 |
Average price per share | $ | 323.96 |  |  | $ | 292.06 |  |  | $ | 314.36 |  |  | $ | 293.56 |
Repurchase costs recorded to accumulated deficit | $ | 550 |  |  | $ | 500 |  |  | $ | 1,100 |  |  | $ | 1,328 |

At June 30, 2023, the remaining authorized amount for share repurchase under the Repurchase Program was approximately $4.9 billion. Under the Repurchase Program, the Company has repurchased a total of 164.2 million shares for an aggregate cost of approximately $22.6 billion. For further information regarding the Repurchase Program, see Part II, Item 2 of this report.

Borrowings
Total debt at June 30, 2023 was $11.3 billion, an increase of $0.6 billion compared to December 31, 2022. Further, commercial paper activity during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (in millions):

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Total issuances (1) |  | $ | 1,411 |  |  | $ | 6,045 |  |  | $ | 2,281 |  |  | $ | 7,701 |

Net issuances (repayments) |  | $ | (44) |  |  | $ | 143 |  |  | $ | (217) |  |  | $ | (409) |

(1)The proceeds of the commercial paper issuances are generally used for short-term working capital needs.
In June 2023, Aon Global Limited’s $600 million 3.50% Senior Notes due June 2024 were classified as Short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as the date of maturity is in less than one year.
On February 28, 2023, Aon Corporation and Aon Global Holdings plc co-issued $750 million 5.35% Senior Notes due in February 2033. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes.
In November 2022, Aon Global Limited’s $350 million 4.00% Senior Notes due November 2023 were classified as Short-term debt and current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as the date of maturity is in less than one year.
In November 2022, Aon Corporation’s $500 million 2.20% Senior Notes matured and were repaid in full.

Other Liquidity Matters
Distributable Profits
We are required under Irish law to have available “distributable profits” to make share repurchases or pay dividends to shareholders. Distributable profits are created through the earnings of the Irish parent company and, among other methods, through intercompany dividends or a reduction in share capital approved by the High Court of Ireland. Distributable profits are not linked to a U.S. GAAP reported amount (e.g. Accumulated Deficit). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had distributable profits in excess of $29.3 billion and $29.0 billion, respectively. We believe that we will have sufficient distributable profits for the foreseeable future.
Credit Facilities
We expect cash generated by operations for 2023 to be sufficient to service our debt and contractual obligations, finance capital expenditures, and continue to pay dividends to our shareholders. Although cash from operations is expected to be sufficient to service these activities, we have the ability to access the commercial paper markets or borrow under our credit facilities to accommodate any timing differences in cash flows. Additionally, under current market conditions, we believe that we could access capital markets to obtain debt financing for longer-term funding, if needed.
As of June 30, 2023, we had two primary committed credit facilities outstanding: our $1.0 billion multi-currency U.S. credit facility expiring in September 2026 and our $750 million multi-currency U.S. credit facility expiring in October 2024. In aggregate, these two facilities provide approximately $1.8 billion in available credit.
Each of these primary committed credit facilities includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including financial covenants that require us to maintain specified ratios of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense and consolidated debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, tested quarterly. At June 30, 2023, we did not have borrowings under either facility, and we were in compliance with the financial covenants and all other covenants contained therein during the rolling 12 months ended June 30, 2023.
38

Shelf Registration Statement
On June 22, 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC, registering the offer and sale from time to time of an indeterminate amount of, among other securities, debt securities, preference shares, class A ordinary shares and convertible securities. Our ability to access the market as a source of liquidity is dependent on investor demand, market conditions, and other factors.
Rating Agency Ratings
The major rating agencies’ ratings of our debt at July 28, 2023 appear in the table below.

| Ratings |  |
| Senior Long-term Debt |  | Commercial Paper |  | Outlook
Standard & Poor’s | A- |  | A-2 |  | Stable
Moody’s Investor Services | Baa2 |  | P-2 |  | Positive
Fitch, Inc. | BBB+ |  | F-2 |  | Stable

On June 26, 2023, Moody’s Investor Services upgraded our 'Baa2' outlook to Positive, as compared to a Stable outlook at April 28, 2023 as reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Letters of Credit and Other Guarantees
We have entered into a number of arrangements whereby our performance on certain obligations is guaranteed by a third party through the issuance of a letter of credit. We had total LOCs outstanding of approximately $79 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $74 million at December 31, 2022. These LOCs cover the beneficiaries related to certain of our U.S. and Canadian non-qualified pension plan schemes and secure deductible retentions for our own workers compensation program. We also have obtained LOCs to cover contingent payments for taxes and other business obligations to third parties, and other guarantees for miscellaneous purposes at our international subsidiaries.
We have certain contractual contingent guarantees for premium payments owed by clients to certain insurance companies. The maximum exposure with respect to such contractual contingent guarantees was approximately $135 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $173 million at December 31, 2022.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
There have been no changes in our critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, pensions, goodwill and other intangible assets, contingencies, share-based payments, and income taxes, as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
As described in Note 2 “Accounting Principles and Practices” to our Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1, all issued, but not yet effective, guidance has been deemed not applicable or not significant to the Financial Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to potential fluctuations in earnings, cash flows, and the fair values of certain of our assets and liabilities due to changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. To manage the risk from these exposures, we enter into a variety of derivative instruments. We do not enter into derivatives or financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
The following discussion describes our specific exposures and the strategies we use to manage these risks. Refer to Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Principles and Practices” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as discussed in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of our accounting policies for financial instruments and derivatives.
41

Foreign Exchange Risk
We are subject to foreign exchange rate risk. Our primary exposures include exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the euro, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar, the Indian rupee, and the Japanese yen. We use over-the-counter options and forward contracts to reduce the impact of foreign currency risk to our financial statements.
Additionally, some of our non-U.S. brokerage subsidiaries receive revenue in currencies that differ from their functional currencies. Our U.K. subsidiaries earn a portion of their revenue in U.S. dollars, euro, and Japanese yen, but most of their expenses are incurred in British pounds. At June 30, 2023, we have hedged approximately 45% of our U.K. subsidiaries’ expected exposures to U.S. dollar, euro, and Japanese yen transactions for the years ending December 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively. We generally do not hedge exposures beyond three years.
We also use forward and option contracts to economically hedge foreign exchange risk associated with monetary balance sheet exposures, such as intercompany notes and short-term assets and liabilities that are denominated in a non-functional currency and are subject to remeasurement.
The translated value of revenues and expenses from our international brokerage operations are subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. If we were to translate prior year results at current quarter exchange rates, diluted net income per share would have an unfavorable $0.05 impact and an unfavorable $0.19 impact during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Further, adjusted diluted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure as defined and reconciled under the caption “Review of Consolidated Results — Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share,” would have an unfavorable $0.05 impact and an unfavorable $0.19 impact during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, if we were to translate prior year results at current quarter exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Our fiduciary investment income is affected by changes in international and domestic short-term interest rates. We monitor our net exposure to short-term interest rates and, as appropriate, hedge our exposure with various derivative financial instruments. This activity primarily relates to brokerage funds held on behalf of clients in the U.S. and in continental Europe. A decrease in global short-term interest rates adversely affects our fiduciary investment income.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report of June 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to Aon, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in appropriate statute, SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to Aon’s management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting. No changes in Aon’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, Aon’s internal control over financial reporting.

See Note 14 “Claims, Lawsuits, and Other Contingencies” to our Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The risk factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflect certain risks associated with existing and potential lines of business and contain “forward-looking statements” as discussed in “Information Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” elsewhere in this report. Readers should consider them in addition to the other information contained in this report as our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected if any of these risks actually occur.

Item 5. Other Information
Special Awards
On July 26, 2023 (the “Grant Date”), the Organization and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company approved one-time special awards (the “Special Awards”) to each of Christa Davies, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Eric Andersen, the Company’s President (each of Ms. Davies and Mr. Andersen, a “Recipient” and together, “Recipients”), under the Aon plc 2011 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated.
In approving the Special Awards, the Committee considered the best interests of shareholders and the Company’s objectives of aligning compensation with performance, promoting retention of the Recipients, ensuring leadership continuity for the Company, delivering against our key financial metrics and driving significant shareholder value creation. The Committee considered Ms. Davies’ leadership of the Company’s Aon Business Services strategy to drive efficiency, innovation, and client service across the Company, and Mr. Andersen’s performance and responsibility for driving the Company’s growth initiatives across its solution lines. The Committee believes that the Special Awards will strengthen the Company’s Aon United strategy and promote the alignment of Ms. Davies’ and Mr. Andersen’s compensation and long-term shareholder value creation.
43

The Special Awards are in the form of 50,000 PSUs, which at target convert on a one-to-one basis to class A ordinary shares of the Company, with 0% to 200% of the target PSUs to vest on March 31, 2028 (the “Vesting Date”) based on the price of the Company’s class A ordinary shares from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date (the “Performance Period”). No PSUs will vest if the average closing price of class A ordinary shares of the Company for the 90 consecutive trading days ending on the Vesting Date is below $475 (the “Performance Hurdle”). Subject to achieving the Performance Hurdle, the number of PSUs to vest will be based upon the highest trading day average closing price of the class A ordinary shares of the Company for any 90 consecutive trading days during the Performance Period (the “Average Share Price”), as follows: (i) entry (50%) if the Average Share Price is $475, (ii) target (100%) if the Average Share Price is $500 and (iii) stretch (200%) if the Average Share Price is at least $550. If Average Share Price is between the entry, target and stretch levels, a proportionate number of PSUs between those levels will be earned.
The Special Award will be forfeited by a Recipient in the event of such Recipient’s retirement or voluntary resignation, including for good reason, prior to the Vesting Date. On or prior to March 31, 2026, upon a termination of a Recipient by the Company without cause, or upon death or disability, such Recipient will be eligible to earn a prorated portion (based on completed days of service during the Performance Period) of the target level of units, subject to achievement of the Performance Hurdle. If such a termination, or death of disability, occurs after March 31, 2026, then the Recipient will be eligible to earn a prorated portion (based on completed days of service during the Performance Period) of the level of achievement of performance at termination date, subject to achievement of the Performance Hurdle. In the event a change in control is consummated prior to the Vesting Date, the performance conditions will be tested at the time of such change in control utilizing the purchase share price. To the extent the performance conditions are achieved as of such date, the Special Award will remain subject to the time vesting requirements; provided, however, that in the event (i) the Special Award is not assumed by the buyer in such change-in-control transaction, or (ii) the Special Award is assumed, but the Recipient is terminated involuntarily without cause, or the Recipient resigns with good reason, during the two-year period immediately following such change in control, then the Special Award shall immediately vest.
The description of the Special Awards in this Part II, Item 5 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Performance Share Unit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.8 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Andersen Employment Agreement
Also on July 26, 2023, Aon Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Andersen (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Andersen will continue to serve as President of the Company and Aon Corporation. The Employment Agreement is effective as of July 1, 2023, and expires on June 30, 2026, unless earlier terminated or extended. The Employment Agreement supersedes Mr. Andersen’s Letter Agreement confirming certain terms and conditions of his at-will employment dated as of May 11, 2018.
Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Andersen is entitled to continue to receive a base salary of no less than $1,250,000 per year, which shall be reviewed annually on the Company’s regular executive salary review schedule, and shall be subject to adjustment at the discretion of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Committee. In addition, Mr. Andersen will continue to be eligible for a target annual incentive bonus of no less than 200% of his base salary for 2023 and subsequent calendar years, payable pursuant to and in accordance with the Aon ISP in a combination of cash and restricted share units of the Company’s class A ordinary shares. The Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Andersen will continue to be eligible to participate in the Company’s LPP and that Mr. Andersen will receive a Special Award.
In the event of Mr. Andersen’s death or termination of employment due to his incapacity or disability during the term of the Employment Agreement, he or his heirs, executors or the administrators of his estate (as applicable) shall receive: (1) his accrued base salary through and including the date of his employment termination; (2) any unpaid annual bonus earned for the completed year (or other performance period) prior to Mr. Andersen’s employment termination; (3) any prorated annual incentive bonus (based on the target annual incentive for the bonus year in which his employment terminates) through and including the date of his employment termination; (4) other employee benefits to which he is entitled in accordance with the terms of such benefit plans and programs; and (5) payment or vesting of any long-term incentive awards that have been granted to him prior to the date of his employment termination, to the extent that such payment or vesting is provided for in the terms of the award agreements.
If the Company terminates Mr. Andersen’s employment for “cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement), he will be entitled to receive: (1) his accrued base salary through and including the date of his employment termination, and (2) other vested employee benefits to which he is entitled upon his termination of employment, in accordance with the terms of such benefit plans and programs.

The Company may notify Mr. Andersen that his employment will be terminated upon the expiration of the Employment Period (as defined in the Employment Agreement); provided that the Company shall provide Mr. Andersen with a minimum of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days’ advance notice (“Notice”) of such termination. If the Employment Period expires prior to the end of the Notice period, Mr. Andersen will be converted to an at-will employee upon the expiration of the Employment Period and the termination shall be treated as a qualifying termination under the Aon plc Amended and Restated Senior Executive Combined Severance and Change in Control Plan (the “SE Plan”).
The Employment Agreement also provides that, if the Company removes Mr. Andersen from the role of President and/or reduces his substantive duties (“Company Removal”), or if Mr. Andersen notifies the Company in writing that he no longer wishes to perform the duties and responsibilities of President (“Executive Notification”), Mr. Andersen will remain employed through the Employment Period (with approval of the Chief Executive Officer in the case of Executive Notification) and shall be entitled to receive: (1) his base salary and annual incentive target bonus through the duration of the Employment Period; (2) pro rata vesting of any outstanding LPP awards through the duration of the Employment Period or through the date of Notification (as applicable); (3) continued vesting of any outstanding ISP awards; and (4) other employee benefits to which he is entitled at the date of Company Removal or Executive Notification (as applicable). In the event of Company Removal, Mr. Andersen would also be entitled to receive pro rata vesting of the Special Award through the duration of the Employment Period. The removal of Mr. Andersen from his role as President, Executive Notification, and/or any reduction in his duties by the Company is deemed not to be a qualifying termination under the SE Plan.
Mr. Andersen is subject to confidentiality provisions and non-competition and non-solicitation covenants that apply during his employment and for a period of two years following the termination of his employment without regard to the reason for such termination, each as set forth in the Employment Agreement.
The description of the Employment Agreement in this Part II, Item 5 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Employment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7 and incorporated herein by reference.
