2. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of performance, financial position, or cash flows that
includes adjustments from a comparable financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The company uses a number of non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful to investors
because they illustrate the performance of the company’s normal, ongoing operations which is important in
understanding and evaluating the company’s financial condition and results of operations. While such measures
are also consistent with measures utilized by investors to evaluate performance, they are not, however, a
substitute for U.S. GAAP financial measures. Therefore, on our investor relations website, the company has
provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP
financial measure. The company adjusts U.S. GAAP financial measures for items not directly related to ongoing
operations. However, it is possible these adjusting items have occurred in the past and could recur in future
reporting periods. Management also uses non-GAAP financial measures for goal setting, as a basis for
determining employee and senior management awards and compensation, and evaluating performance on a
basis comparable to that used by investors and securities analysts.
The company also uses a variety of other operational measures that do not have U.S. GAAP counterparts, and
therefore do not fit the definition of non-GAAP financial measures. Assets under management is an example of
an operational measure that is not considered a non-GAAP financial measure.

3. Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements made by the company which are not historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements,
including, without limitation, statements as to operating earnings, net income available to common stockholders, net
cash flows, realized and unrealized gains and losses, capital and liquidity positions, sales and earnings trends, and
management's beliefs, expectations, goals and opinions. The company does not undertake to update these statements,
which are based on a number of assumptions concerning future conditions that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate.
Future events and their effects on the company may not be those anticipated, and actual results may differ materially
from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. The risks, uncertainties and factors that could cause or
contribute to such material differences are discussed in the company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2012, and in the company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for quarter ended June 30, 2013, filed by the
company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as updated or supplemented from time to time in subsequent
filings. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation: adverse capital and credit market conditions may
significantly affect the company’s ability to meet liquidity needs, access to capital and cost of capital; continued difficult
conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally; continued volatility or further declines in the equity
markets; changes in interest rates or credit spreads; the company’s investment portfolio is subject to several risks that
may diminish the value of its invested assets and the investment returns credited to customers; the company’s valuation
of securities may include methodologies, estimations and assumptions that are subject to differing interpretations; the
determination of the amount of allowances and impairments taken on the company’s investments requires estimations
and assumptions that are subject to differing interpretations; gross unrealized losses may be realized or result in future
impairments; competition from companies that may have greater financial resources, broader arrays of products, higher
ratings and stronger financial performance; a downgrade in the company’s financial strength or credit ratings; inability to
attract and retain sales representatives and develop new distribution sources; international business risks; the
company’s actual experience could differ significantly from its pricing and reserving assumptions; the company’s ability
to pay stockholder dividends and meet its obligations may be constrained by the limitations on dividends or distributions
Iowa insurance laws impose on Principal Life; the pattern of amortizing the company’s DAC and other actuarial balances
on its universal life-type insurance contracts, participating life insurance policies and certain investment contracts may
change; the company may need to fund deficiencies in its “Closed Block” assets that support participating ordinary life
insurance policies that had a dividend scale in force at the time of Principal Life’s 1998 conversion into a stock life
insurance company; the company’s reinsurers could default on their obligations or increase their rates; risks arising from
acquisitions of businesses; changes in laws, regulations or accounting standards; a computer system failure or security
breach could disrupt the company’s business, and damage its reputation; results of litigation and regulatory
investigations; from time to time the company may become subject to tax audits, tax litigation or similar proceedings, and
as a result it may owe additional taxes, interest and penalties in amounts that may be material; fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates; and applicable laws and the company’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws may
discourage takeovers and business combinations that some stockholders might consider in their best interests.
