Athene Holding Names New Director in Item 5.02 Disclosure

Athene Holding Ltd. disclosed the election of a new director, according to an 8-K filed with the SEC on June 1, 2026.

The filing, bearing CIK 0001527469 and accession number 0001527469-26-000034, lists Item 5.02 (Departure or election of directors or principal officers), Item 7.01 (Regulation FD disclosure), and Item 9.01 (Financial statements and exhibits). As a publicly traded insurance and retirement-services company, Athene must maintain a board that satisfies NYSE independence and governance standards; the addition of one director directly modifies the size and makeup of that body.

The election takes effect on the date stated in the filing. Prior to this action the board operated with its previous complement of members; the new state includes the named individual as a full voting director with immediate fiduciary and committee-eligibility responsibilities. No departure is reported in the Item 5.02 section.

Downstream, the company must update its proxy-statement disclosures for the next annual meeting and may need to file a separate Form 8-K or amendment if the director receives a specific committee assignment. Regulation FD Item 7.01 indicates the company furnished information to the market, starting the clock on any related quiet-period or selective-disclosure compliance obligations.

Markets and counterparties will incorporate the board change into their governance scoring models within days.

This marks the latest board-level filing for Athene Holding Ltd. in 2026. The company last reported a director election or departure in its prior-year proxy materials, consistent with standard annual refresh cycles for large financial-services issuers.

The complete filing is available on the SEC EDGAR system under accession 0001527469-26-000034.
