Summary

Summary of the 8-K filed April 20, 2026. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

Principal Financial Group, Inc. (PFG) filed this Form 8-K on April 20, 2026 under Regulation FD to disclose its quarterly assets under management (AUM) by asset manager ahead of its quarterly earnings release.

As of March 31, 2026, total AUM was $770.2 billiona, of which $578.0 billion was managed by Principal Asset Management - Investment Management and $159.6 billion by Principal Asset Management - International Pension. The filing states that for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, a combination of market performance, foreign currency translation, and other items not reported as part of net cash flow had an approximate 1.2% negative impact as a percentage of beginning period AUM.

The company also flagged its exposure to small- and mid-cap and international equity products, high yield and preferred securities in fixed income, and exchange rate movements in emerging markets, which may matter during periods of market dislocation and wider dispersion of returns. The company states that the AUM figures will be presented in the same format within its financial supplement for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, expected to be posted to its investor relations website on or about April 23, 2026.
