(1) Effective January 1, 2018 and forward, unrealized gains and losses, net of tax for equity securities are reported in "Other income, net" on the Consolidated Statements of Net Income instead of comprehensive income.
(2) Amounts are net of tax. Reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the related tax effects are immaterial for separate disclosure.
(3) Impact of tax legislation includes a $126 million loss related to Tax Legislation offset by a $23 million favorable impact related to 2017 activity. See Note 5, "INCOME TAXES," to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
