Fund Description

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of U.S. companies with small market capitalizations. For this Fund, companies with small market capitalizations are those with market capitalizations within the range of companies comprising the Russell 2000 Index. As of September 30, 2025, the market capitalization range of the companies in the Russell 2000 Index was between approximately $22.4 million to $25.0 billion.
For security selection and portfolio construction, Principal Global Investors, LLC ("PGI") uses a proprietary quantitative model designed to identify and rank equity securities (including growth and value stock) of small-capitalization companies in the Russell 2000 Index that PGI believes display (i) value characteristics (companies with low share prices relative to their fundamental value), (ii) higher quality (companies that possess higher quality characteristics relative to their peers, measured by profitability, earnings quality, balance sheet strength, and solvency), and (iii) higher momentum (companies that have share prices and earnings that are trending up). In weighting securities, the model first weights the preceding three characteristics approximately equally and then seeks to assign greater weight to securities that PGI determines are more liquid (meaning the securities that would be the easiest to trade without significantly impacting their value based on recent average trading volumes) and less volatile (meaning the share price of the security has a lower degree of fluctuation over time).
The Fund's holdings are expected to be rebalanced at least annually. However, PGI may make any adjustments to the model and Fund holdings at its discretion. In constructing and revising the model and managing the Fund’s investments, PGI uses insights from diverse sources, including internal investment research, industry reports, and data from third-party consultants and other service providers, to develop and refine its investment themes and identify and take advantage of trends that may impact the Fund and its holdings.
