REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Plan Participants and Plan Administrator of
Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan
Northbrook, Illinois

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Report on Supplemental Schedule and Supplementary Information
The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2020 and the supplementary information by fund in the statements of net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits have been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audits of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental schedule and supplementary information by fund are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental schedule and supplementary information reconcile to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental schedule and supplementary information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental schedule, including its form and content, is presented in compliance with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, such schedule and supplementary information are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

ALLSTATE 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
1.Description of Plan
The following description of the Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”), sponsored by The Allstate Corporation (the “Company”), provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
General Regular full-time and regular part-time employees of subsidiaries of the Company, with the exception of those employed by the Company’s international subsidiaries, InfoArmor, Inc., and SquareTrade Inc., are eligible to participate in the Plan. There is no waiting period to enroll in the Plan, provided employees are at least 18 years old.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan consisting of a profit sharing and stock bonus plan containing a cash or deferred arrangement which is intended to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). The stock bonus portion of the Plan includes a nonleveraged employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) which is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409 and Section 4975(e)(7) of the Code. The stock bonus portion of the Plan previously included a leveraged ESOP comprised of Allstate stock. The ESOP loan balance was repaid on December 31, 2019. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).
On December 31, 2019, the Answer Financial 401(k) Plan, a defined contribution plan sponsored by Answer Financial, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, was merged with and into the Plan. As a result, all participants in the Answer Financial 401(k) Plan became participants in the Plan. In conjunction with the merger, net assets in the amount of $28,092,134 from the Answer Financial 401(k) Plan were transferred into the Plan.
On July 10, 2020, the Esurance Insurance Services, Inc. ("Esurance") 401(k) Plan, a defined contribution plan sponsored by Esurance, a subsidiary of the Company, was merged with and into the Plan. As a result, all participants in the Esurance 401(k) Plan became participants in the Plan. In conjunction with the merger, net assets in the amount of $192,532,732 from the Esurance 401(k) Plan were transferred into the Plan.
On December 17, 2020, the Plan's 401(k) Committee approved a resolution to permit National General Holdings Corp. (together with its affiliates and subsidiaries) to adopt the Plan, effective on January 4, 2021.
Administration The Plan is administered by the Administrative Committee. Investment transactions are authorized by the Plan’s Investment Committee. Members of the Administrative and Investment Committees are appointed by the 401(k) Committee. The 401(k) Committee is comprised of various Allstate Insurance Company officers as described in the Plan.
Trustee of the Plan The Northern Trust Company holds Plan assets as trustee under the Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan Trust.
Contributions — Each year, employees may contribute up to 50% of eligible annual compensation through a combination of pre-tax, Roth 401(k), and after-tax contributions, subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. All eligible employees hired or rehired are automatically enrolled in the Plan at a 5% pre-tax contribution rate, unless the participant declines enrollment or changes the contribution rate within the first 45 days of eligibility. Participants age 50 or older have the option to make additional pre-tax or Roth 401(k) contributions (“Catch-Up” contributions). Employees may also roll over pre-tax or Roth 401(k) amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Company match for a plan year is 80 cents for every pre-tax and/or Roth 401(k) dollar that a participant contributes to the Plan during the plan year, up to 5% of eligible compensation. Beginning with the 2020 plan year, employer contributions are now invested in accordance with participant elections. Prior to the 2020 plan year, all employer contributions were invested in the Allstate Stock Fund.
Participant Accounts Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution, allocations of the Company’s contribution and investment earnings and losses, and is charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Accounts may increase by rollovers and decrease by rollovers and withdrawals. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
Vesting Participants hired prior to March 1, 2009 were immediately vested in their contributions and the Company’s contributions plus earnings thereon. Employees hired on or after March 1, 2009 are immediately vested in their contributions and will fully vest in the Company’s contributions after three years of vesting service.
Investment Options Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee contributions to any or all of the Plan's investment options. If a participant does not make an investment election, employee contributions will be invested in the Target
- 5 -


Retirement Date Fund that corresponds with the participant’s birth date and assumes a retirement date and account distribution at age 65. Participants may change their investment elections at any time, with limited trading restrictions, but without redemption restrictions. The funds transact at net asset value on a daily basis.
Participant Notes Receivable Participants may borrow from their employee contribution and rollover contribution accounts. The loan amount must be at least $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of: (i) 50% of their vested account balance, or (ii) $50,000, and will be taken from the participant’s accounts in the following order: pre-tax, Roth 401(k), rollover, and after-tax. Loan transactions are treated as a proportional transfer from/to the investment funds and to/from the loan fund. Loan terms range from 6 to 48 months for a general-purpose loan and 49 to 180 months for a primary residence loan. Loans are secured by the participant’s account balance and bear interest at the prime rate, plus one percent, as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the 15th day of the month prior to the first day of the quarter in which the loan is requested. Generally, principal and interest are paid by participants ratably through payroll deductions.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) The Company had a leveraged ESOP. As the Plan made each payment of principal and interest, a proportional percentage of unallocated shares were allocated to eligible participants’ accounts in accordance with applicable regulations under the Code. The remaining loan balance of $1,835,096 matured and was repaid by the Plan on December 31, 2019.
Payment of Benefits Upon termination of service, a participant is entitled to a complete withdrawal of his or her vested account balance, net of any outstanding loans. Partial withdrawals are also permitted under the Plan subject to restrictions.  Participants may leave their account balance in the plan after termination, if the balance is greater than $1,000; however, after the age of seventy and a half, required minimum distributions must be withdrawn. If the value of a vested account balance on or after a participant’s termination date does not exceed $1,000, the participant will receive an automatic lump sum distribution of their vested account balance.
Forfeited Accounts — As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled $3,099,484 and $3,153,761 respectively, and are reported in other assets. These accounts will be used to reduce future employer contributions. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, employer contributions were reduced by $3,153,761 and $2,722,775, respectively, due to forfeited nonvested accounts.
2.Summary of Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting The Plan’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Subsequent events were evaluated through June 16, 2021, the date the financial statements were issued.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties The Plan utilizes various types of investments, including institutional index funds, a stable value fund and common stock. These investments are subject to market risk, the risk that losses will be incurred due to adverse changes in creditworthiness, equity prices and interest rates. It is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
The Novel Coronavirus Pandemic or COVID-19 (“Coronavirus”) has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which have included the implementation of travel restrictions, government-imposed shelter-in-place orders, quarantine periods, social distancing, and restrictions on large gatherings, have caused material disruption to businesses globally, resulting in increased unemployment, a recession and increased economic uncertainty. These measures have moderated in 2021 as vaccines have become more widely available in the United States and Canada. The impact of the Coronavirus on the Plan’s operations is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. If the financial markets or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, the future investment results of the Plan may be materially adversely affected.
On March 27, 2020, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The CARES Act provided temporary relief for retirement plan sponsors and their participants with respect to employer contributions, distributions and participant loans. The provisions of the CARES Act are effective and operationalized immediately, prior to amending the plan document. The 401(k) Committee has approved the implementation of certain relief provisions included in the CARES Act, including suspending required loan repayments due between March 27, 2020 and December 31, 2020 by twelve months, allowing Coronavirus-related distributions up to $100,000 to be taken without an early-withdrawal penalty, and waiving required minimum distributions in 2020. The future effects of these provisions on the Plan’s net assets available for
- 6 -


benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits are uncertain.  The Plan will formally be amended by the end of the 2022 plan year.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition Plan investments are stated at fair value except for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts ("FBRIC"), which are reported at contract value. Shares of institutional index funds are valued at prices that represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end and the fair value of the underlying investments. Common stock held in the Allstate Stock Fund is valued using market price. The Stable Value Fund is a FBRIC and stated at contract value, which is the amount Plan participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date plus one basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Administrative Expenses Investment management fees, recordkeeping fees, and trustee fees along with other administrative expenses charged to the Plan for investments in each of the Plan’s investment options are deducted from income earned on a daily basis and are not separately reflected. Consequently, fees and expenses are reflected as a reduction of investment return for such investments.
Benefits Paid to Participants and Participant Notes Receivable Benefits paid to participants and participant notes receivable are recorded upon distribution. Amounts allocated to accounts of persons who have elected to withdraw from the Plan, but have not yet been paid as of year end are included in other assets on the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits. Participant notes receivable are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest.
3.ESOP Loan
Prior to 2020, the Plan had a leveraged ESOP to fund a portion of the anticipated contribution. The remaining loan balance matured and was repaid on December 31, 2019. All shares held by the ESOP have been released.
The following table presents additional information, as of December 31, 2019, for the Plan’s investment in The Allstate Corporation common stock held in the Allstate Stock Fund and the ESOP Company Shares.

Cost $ 238,374  $ 2,780 
Fair value $ 688,308  $ 43,876 
4.Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. In the event that the Plan is terminated, participants would be 100% vested in their accounts.
5.Tax Status
The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has determined and informed the Company by a letter, dated August 17, 2017, that the Plan and related trust were designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Code. The plan document has been amended since receiving the determination letter. The Plan’s management believes that the Plan is currently designed and is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements, and there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The statute of limitation has expired and the Plan is not subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2016. The IRS is not currently examining the Plan.

6.Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts
The Stable Value Fund holdings include investment contracts called synthetic guaranteed investment contracts comprised of investments in the common collective trusts plus a wrapper contract. The wrapper contract is issued by a financial institution and the contract guarantees to provide a specific interest rate to be credited to the contract plus provide for participant liquidity at contract value in certain situations.
The Stable Value Fund’s wrapper contracts are benefit-responsive and are thus eligible for contract-value reporting. Funds may be withdrawn pro-rata from all the Stable Value Fund’s investment contracts at contract value determined by the respective issuing companies to pay benefits and to make participant-directed transfers to other investment options pursuant to the terms of the Plan after the amounts in the Stable Value Fund’s Short-Term Investment Fund reserve are depleted.
The wrapper contracts wrap underlying assets which are held in the trust and owned by the Stable Value Fund. The underlying assets are comprised of common collective trusts which may include a variety of high quality fixed income investments selected by the fund manager consistent with the Stable Value Fund’s investment guidelines. High quality, as defined by the Stable Value Fund’s investment guidelines, means the average credit quality of all of the investments backing the Stable Value Fund contracts is AA/A1 or better as measured by S&P Global’s or Moody’s credit rating services. The investments in the common collective trusts are used to generate the investment returns that are utilized to provide for interest rates credited through the wrapper contracts.
The wrapper contracts are benefit-responsive in that they provide that participants may execute transactions from the Stable Value Fund according to Plan provisions at contract value. Contract value represents contributions made to the Stable Value Fund, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals. The interest rates in wrapper contracts are reset monthly, based on market rates of other similar investments, the current yield of the underlying investments, the spread between the market value and contract value of the investments held by the contract, and the financial duration of the contract investments. All contracts have a minimum crediting rate of 0%, but ranged between 1.85% and 2.27% during 2020. Certain events, such as plan termination, or a plan merger initiated by the plan sponsor, or changes to Plan provisions not approved by the issuers of the Stable Value Fund’s wrapper contracts, may limit the ability of the Stable Value Fund to transact at contract value or may allow for the termination of the wrapper contracts at less than contract value. Plan Management does not believe that any events that may limit the ability of the Stable Value Fund to transact at contract value are probable.
Changes in market interest rates affect the yield to maturity and the market value of the investments in the common collective trusts, and thus can have a material impact on the interest crediting rate. In addition, participant withdrawals and transfers from the Stable Value Fund are paid at contract value but funded through the market value liquidation of the investments in the common collective trusts, which also may affect future interest crediting rates. If market interest rates rise and fair values of investments in the common collective trusts fall, the fair value may be less than the corresponding contract value. This shortfall in fair value will be reflected in future crediting rates by amortizing the effect into the future through an adjustment to interest crediting rates of the wrapper contracts. Similarly, if market interest rates fall and fair values of investments in the common collective trusts rise, the fair values of investments held by the wrapper contract may be greater than the corresponding contract value. This excess in fair value will also be reflected in future crediting rates through an amortization process similar to that when there is a fair value shortfall.
7.Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Plan can access.
Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:
(a)Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
(b)Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or
(c)Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Plan’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.
- 8 -


Category level in the fair value hierarchy for assets or liabilities is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The following is a description of the significant valuation techniques used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
The Allstate Corporation Common Stock: The Company’s common stock is actively traded on the New York Stock Exchange and is valued based on unadjusted quoted prices.
Northern Trust Collective Short-Term Investment Fund: The collective short-term investment fund is valued using amortized cost which approximates fair value.
Investments excluded from the fair value hierarchy - Common and collective trust funds comprise funds that have daily quoted net asset values for identical assets in markets that are not active. The net asset values are primarily derived based on the fair values of the underlying investments in the fund, some of which are not actively traded.
The following table summarizes the Plan’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020. There were no assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2020. There were no level 3 assets as of December 31, 2020.
