What the Analysts think about PFG

Analyst projections of the future price of Principal Financial stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Adjusted operating earnings per share, excluding significant variances, rose 17% year on year to $2.42 in the second quarter. Retirement and Income Solutions also delivered higher operating earnings, helping drive the stronger result. (Reuters, Principal Financial Group)
The retirement platform is gaining customer assets: transfer deposits rose 30%, recurring deposits rose 6%, and roll-ins exceeded $7 billion over the past year, up nearly 20%. This could support durable fee income as participants consolidate savings with Principal. (Principal Financial Group)
Principal returned $427 million to shareholders in the second quarter and raised its quarterly dividend by 8% year on year. It also reported $1.6 billion of excess and available capital, supporting continued distributions and investment in the business. (Principal Financial Group)
Principal Asset Management had $11.1 billion of net cash outflows in the second quarter, far more than a year earlier, and management expects flows to remain challenging. Persistent withdrawals and lower fee rates could weigh on this earnings stream. (Investing.com, Principal Financial Group)
Favourable underwriting and improved life-insurance mortality were key drivers of the quarter’s earnings growth. If claims experience becomes less favourable, those recent profit gains may prove difficult to sustain. (Principal Financial Group)
Higher assets under management supported fee income, but that also leaves part of earnings exposed to market swings. A downturn that reduces asset values could reverse some of this tailwind and put pressure on fees. (Reuters)
