Morningstar Star Rating™   as of 08/31/2024    What's this? Rating # Funds 3 Year 683 5 Year 644 10 Year 493 Overall 683 Morningstar Category:Moderate Allocation Morningstar's Star Ratings reflect risk adjusted performance and are derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three, five, and ten-year (if applicable) time periods.

Alpha- Alpha measures the difference between an investment's actual returns and its expected performance, given its level of risk (as measured by beta). A positive alpha figure indicates that the investment has performed better than expected. In contrast, a negative alpha indicates that an investment has underperformed, given the expectations established by the investment's beta. Many investors see alpha as a measurement of the value added or subtracted by an investment's manager.

Beta- Beta is a measure of an investment's sensitivity to market movements. It measures the relationship between an investment's excess return over T-bills and the excess return of the benchmark index. By definition, the beta of the benchmark (in this case, an index) is 1.00. Accordingly, an investment with a 1.10 beta has performed 10% better than its benchmark index - after deducting the T-bill rate - than the index in up markets and 10% worse in down markets, assuming all other factors remain constant. Conversely, a beta of 0.85 indicates that the investment has performed 15% worse than the index in up markets and 15% better in down markets. A low beta does not imply that the investment has a low level of volatility, though; rather, a low beta means only that the investment's returns do not move in step with the chosen index.

R-Squared- R-squared ranges from 0 to 100 and reveals how closely an investment's returns track those of a benchmark index. An R-squared of 100 means that all movements of an investment are completely correlated with movements in the index. For example, mutual funds that invest only in S&P 500 stocks will have an R-squared very close to 100 relative to the S&P 500 index. Conversely, a low R-squared indicates that very few of the investment's movements are explained by movements in its benchmark index.

Standard Deviation- Standard deviation is a statistical measure of how much an investment's returns are likely to fluctuate. These ranges assume that an investment's returns fall in a typical bell-shaped distribution. In any case, the greater the standard deviation, the greater the volatility. When an investment has a high standard deviation, its range of performance has been very wide, indicating that there is a greater potential for volatility.

Mean- Represents the annualized total return for a fund over a certain time period; usually in years.

Sharpe Ratio- Measures how an investment balances risks and rewards. The higher the Sharpe ratio, the better the investment's historical risk-adjusted performance. The Sharpe ratio is a measure developed by Nobel Laureate William Sharpe to evaluate how an investment balances risks and rewards. The higher the Sharpe ratio, the better the investment's historical risk-adjusted performance. It is calculated using standard deviation and excess return to determine reward per unit of risk. First, the average monthly return of the 90-day Treasury bill (over the defined time period) is subtracted from the investment's average monthly return. The difference in total return represents the investment's excess return beyond that of the 90-day Treasury bill, a risk-free investment. An arithmetic annualized excess return is then calculated by multiplying this monthly return by 12. To show a relationship between excess return and risk, this number is divided by the standard deviation of the investment's annualized excess returns.

Excess Return- The difference between an investment option's return and the return of an external standard such as a passive index.

Tracking Error- Also known as "excess risk," defined as the standard deviation or volatility of excess returns.

Information Ratio- A risk-adjusted measure commonly used to evaluate an active manager's involvement skill. It's defined as the manager's excess return divided by the variability or standard deviation of the excess return.

This information must be accompanied by performance results for 1, 5, and 10 year/since inception time periods as of the most recent calendar quarter end. Returns shown for periods of less than one year are not annualized. All returns displayed here are after Total Investment Expense of the investment option. Affiliates of Principal Life may receive fees as the Investment Provider and/or the Investment Sub-Advisor for certain investment options. These fees are reflected in this column. The term Investment Provider refers to the providers (i.e. manufacturers) of the investment options we make available to employer-sponsored retirement and savings plans. The Investment Provider may or may not be the same entity as the Investment Manager or Sub-Advisor. Please see prospectus for the Investment Provider for mutual fund investment options. Principal Life is the Investment Provider for all Separate Accounts and pays fees for sub-advisory services to the Investment Manager or Sub-Advisor. When affiliates of Principal Life are both Investment Provider and Recordkeeper, amounts in this column and the Revenue Sharing to Recordkeeper column are determined based on internal allocation assumptions. These are amounts Principal Life as Recordkeeper or an affiliate expects to receive in connection with the services provided to your plan. In the case of mutual funds, these amounts, which include 12b-1 fees, are paid from the mutual funds, including mutual funds provided by an affiliate of Principal Life. Any 12b-1 fees are paid to Principal Securities, Inc. an affiliate of Principal Life. For investment options other than Separate Accounts, these amounts are paid pursuant to contracts between the investment options and Principal Life or its affiliates for services Principal Life or its affiliates provide to retirement plans on behalf of the investment options. In the case of Separate Accounts, these are amounts that are retained by Principal Life, the Investment Provider of the Separate Accounts, and are allocated to recordkeeping based on internal allocation assumptions. Depending on the rate level or share class selected and the agreements in place, a fee credit may be applied to have the effect of reducing the amount of Revenue Sharing Principal Life attributes to the providing of services to the plan. Amounts shown in this column are taken into consideration in setting the price for the investment and service package and do not offset our fees on a dollar-for-dollar basis. For plans that have not entered into a service agreement with Principal Life to provide recordkeeping services, these amounts are for additional administrative and/or reporting services. The Principal LifeTime investment options, Principal TrustSM Target Date Funds and Principal Strategic Asset Management (SAM) Portfolios invest in underlying investment options. As a result, Total Investment Expense and revenue figures include expenses incurred by the underlying investment options proportionate to their allocations. These underlying expenses and revenue fluctuate throughout the year and are typically updated on an annual basis. We expect the range of fluctuation in disclosed revenue will be no more than an increase or decrease of 0.03%. If the disclosed revenue changes by more than 0.03%, we will notify the plan fiduciary.

The Year-to-Date Change represents an unannualized rate of return (change in value) since the start of the year. All returns shown here are after the Total Investment Expense of the investment option. Fees and expenses are only one of several factors that participants and beneficiaries should consider when making investment decisions. The cumulative effect of fees and expenses can substantially reduce the growth of a participant's or beneficiary's retirement account. Participants and beneficiaries can visit the Employee Benefit Security Administration's website for an example demonstrating the long-term effect of fees and expenses. Returns shown reflect all investment management charges and any miscellaneous expenses incurred by the underlying accounts of the divisions. Returns do not include premium expense charges and various monthly deductions (administration charges, cost of insurance, and mortality and expense risks charges) which vary by contract. In addition, results do not reflect the premium expense charge or the surrender charge levied if the policy is surrendered during the first 10 policy years, or within 10 years after a face amount increase. If these fees and charges had been deducted, the results shown would be significantly lower. These charges are explained fully in the prospectus and their effect upon cash surrender values are best explained by reviewing several hypothetical illustrations contained in the prospectus.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (CDSC) - A deferred sales charge, which is paid at the time of redemption and generally decreases with the amount of time that fund shares are held before sale, ultimately declining to 0%.

Various mutual funds may have different types of fees disclosed in their prospectus, including sales loads (sales charge), exchange fees, account fees and purchase fees. The mutual funds made available by Principal Life Insurance Company for retirement plans through the Mutual Fund Network typically have many of these fees waived. Please review the Prospectus of the particular mutual fund, including the Statement of Additional Information, for a full understanding of the fees imposed by that mutual fund. Be sure to pay attention to the specific share class made available under the retirement plan because different share classes may have vastly different fee structures and schedules.

Investing in real estate, small-cap, international, and high-yield investment options involves additional risks. Returns do not take into account any variable annuity contract fees, your actual returns could be lower.
