The sharp increase in cash in Q1 2024 was driven primarily by **robust operating cash flow**. Operating activities generated **$1,097 million** in cash compared to **$871 million** in Q1 2023, largely due to higher net income (**$753 million** vs. **$535 million**) and increased insurance liabilities (**$870 million** vs. **$761 million**). This strong performance in operating activities more than offset the cash outflows from investing and financing activities, contributing to the overall net increase of **$133 million** in cash and restricted cash in Q1 2024.  **[0000874766-24-000073_hig-20240331.htm:10]**
