The amounts presented herein will be consistent with the format of AUM by asset manager and presented again in such format within the Company's financial supplement for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, when that document is posted to the Company's investor relations website on or about October 26, 2026.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2026, a combination of foreign currency translation, market performance, operations disposed, and other items not reported as part of the Company’s net cash flow, had an approximate 1.5% negative impact as a percentage of beginning period AUM. Operations disposed AUM in the current quarter was negative $2.2 billion primarily due to the sale of Chile annuity business in the Principal Asset Management – International Pension.

 

During times of market dislocations and a wider dispersion of returns, it is important to note our exposure to small, mid-cap, and international products in equity AUM, high yield and preferred securities exposure in fixed income AUM, and exchange rate movement in emerging markets.
