These performance results are for the Principal TrustSM Target Date Collective Investment Funds R2 share class. Results for your share class may differ. For information specific to your share class, please login to access your products and services or speak with a representative of The Principal.

Investment results shown represent historical performance and do not guarantee future results. Investment returns and principal values fluctuate with changes in interest rates and other market conditions so the value, when redeemed may be worth more or less than original costs. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data shown. Please see the Fact Sheet for a specific fund’s performance calculated by the retroactive application of the current asset allocation methodologies.

In situations where the net and gross total investment expense figures are different, the collective investment trust or the underlying investment options in which a collective investment trust invests have waived/caped a portion of its management fee through the date displayed in the waiver expiration date or contractual cap expiration date column. Differences may also be shown due to the fund family choosing to pay certain expenses that would normally be payable by the fund. Returns displayed are based on net total investment expense.
