Transaction Overview

On December 31, 2025, Goodlife Solutions, Inc., the intermediate holding company of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska, Inc. (“BCBSNE”), completed a $100 million Senior Term Loan offering. BCBSNE is the leading health insurance provider in Nebraska, and the proceeds from the Senior Term Loan will be down streamed to BCBSNE in the form of a surplus note. This additional surplus will further strengthen BCBSNE’s already solid financial position as it advances its growth strategy across government programs.

BCBSNE is a member of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, which is comprised of over 30 plans and collectively provides healthcare coverage to nearly one third of all Americans. Founded in 1939, BCBSNE is the leading health insurer for group markets in Nebraska. The company generates approximately $2.6 billion in annual revenue and serves more than 600,000 members.

The Senior Term Loan was privately placed by a syndicate led by Synovus Bank.

Acrisure Re Corporate Advisory and Solutions (“ARCAS”) served as exclusive financial advisor to BCBSNE for this transaction.
