	(Des Moines, Iowa) – Principal Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: PFG) today announced results for fourth
quarter and full year 2012. The company reported operating earnings of $243.9 million for fourth quarter 2012,
compared to $201.8 million for fourth quarter 2011. Operating earnings per diluted share (EPS) were $0.82 for fourth
quarter 2012, compared to $0.66 for fourth quarter 2011. The company reported net income available to common
stockholders of $218.6 million, or $0.74 per diluted share for fourth quarter 2012, compared to $148.5 million, or $0.48
per diluted share for fourth quarter 2011, reflecting a strong increase in operating earnings and improvement in credit-
related losses. Operating revenues for fourth quarter 2012 were $2,293.1 million compared to $2,103.3 million for the
same period last year.

	The company reported operating earnings of $808.0 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2012
(which were negatively impacted by a $90.7 million charge from the third quarter actuarial assumption review,
predominantly due to the lower interest rates), compared to $843.8 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2011.
Operating earnings per diluted share (EPS) were $2.69 for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2012, compared to $2.66 for
the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2011. (Adjusted 2012 EPS of $2.99²is up 12 percent over reported 2011 EPS.) The
company reported net income available to common stockholders of $772.9 million, or $2.57 per diluted share for the
twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2012, compared to $619.7 million, or $1.95 per diluted share for the twelve months ended
Dec. 31, 2011. Operating revenues for the year 2012 were $9,175.4 million compared to $8,281.0 million for the same
period last year.

	The company also announced today that its board of directors has declared a quarterly dividend of
$0.23 per share of common stock, an increase of 10 percent over the fourth quarter 2012 dividend. The dividend
will be payable on March 29, 2013 to shareholders of record as of March 11, 2013.

¹Use of non-GAAP financial measures is discussed in this release after segment results.
²2012 operating earnings were negatively impacted by $90.7 million from the third quarter 2012 actuarial assumption
review.


	“The Principal Financial Group ended a strong 2012 with very strong fourth quarter earnings. The continued
strength of our underlying business fundamentals and successful execution of our strategy gives us momentum going
into 2013,” said Larry D. Zimpleman, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “We significantly advanced our
international strategy with two acquisitions in Latin America last year. Closing on Cuprum will further solidify our
position as a global investment management leader in 2013 and beyond.”


	Added Terry Lillis, senior vice president and chief financial officer, “Our very strong earnings in the fourth quarter
and the ability of our fee-based business model to continuously generate deployable capital gives us continued financial
flexibility, as demonstrated by our strong capital deployment in 2012 and today’s announcement of a 10 percent increase in
our quarterly common stock dividend. Full-year book value per share (excluding other comprehensive income) increased 7
percent over full year 2011 and our investment portfolio is performing very well.”

	*Segment Results*
Retirement and Investor Services
	Segment operating earnings for fourth quarter 2012 were $152.3 million, compared to $124.5 million for
the same period in 2011. Full Service Accumulation earnings increased 39 percent from a year ago quarter to $81.3
million reflecting an $8 million after-tax benefit as more companies paid extraordinary and accelerated dividends in
fourth quarter 2012. Principal Funds earnings were up 25 percent compared to the year-ago quarter to $13.2 million,
primarily due to an increase in average account values. Individual Annuities earnings were $31.1 million compared to
$27.8 million for fourth quarter 2011 reflecting $3 million after tax of favorable variable investment income. Bank
and Trust Services operating earnings were $7.9 million, compared to $8.5 million for fourth quarter 2011. The
guaranteed businesses, which consist of Investment Only and Full Service Payout, earned $18.8 million in the fourth
quarter 2012 compared to $19.0 million in fourth quarter 2011.
	Operating revenues for the fourth quarter 2012 were $1,127.9 million compared to $1,016.9 million for
the same period in 2011 primarily due to higher fee revenue in the accumulations businesses and higher premiums
in the guaranteed businesses.
	Segment assets under management were a record $212.0 billion as of Dec. 31, 2012, compared to
$179.8 billion as of Dec. 31, 2011, reflecting asset appreciation and strong net cash flows from Full Service
Accumulation and Principal Funds.

Principal Global Investors
	Segment operating earnings for fourth quarter 2012 were $26.2 million, up strongly from $17.5 million in
the prior year quarter, primarily due to an increase in assets under management and the year ago quarter having
one-time acquisition costs.
	Operating revenues for fourth quarter were $168.0 million, compared to $151.8 million for the same
period in 2011, primarily a result of higher management and transaction fees.
	Unaffiliated assets under management were a record $98.2 billion as of Dec. 31, 2012, compared to $82.4
billion as of Dec. 31, 2011 as a result of strong net cash flows and strong investment performance.

prior year quarter. Fourth quarter 2011 benefited from $10.4 million of one-time earnings.
	Operating revenues were $265.8 million for fourth quarter 2012, compared to $255.6 million for the same
period last year primarily due to 31 percent growth in assets under management, which were partially offset by one-time
revenues in the year ago quarter.

Segment assets under management were a record $69.3 billion as of Dec. 31, 2012, compared to $52.8

billion as of Dec. 31, 2011. This includes a record $9.3 billion of net cash flows for the full year, or 18 percent of

the same period in 2011. Individual Life earnings were $27.8 million in the fourth quarter 2012 compared to $27.2

million in fourth quarter 2011. Specialty Benefits earnings were $31.6 million in fourth quarter 2012, up 23

percent from $25.6 million in the same period a year ago primarily due to favorable claims experience in the

current quarter.

Segment operating revenues for fourth quarter 2012 were $779.7 million compared to $737.9 million

for the same period a year ago.

Corporate

Operating losses for fourth quarter 2012 were $39.1 million compared to operating losses of $43.1 million

in fourth quarter 2011. The fourth quarter 2011 was negatively impacted from an active credit strategy on excess

capital at the holding company, which was wound down in 2012.

Forward looking and cautionary statements

This press release contains 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, 2011, and in the company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Sept.30, 2012, 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 DPAC 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 the company's ability to obtain regulatory approval and

consummate the acquisition of A.F.P. Cuprum S.A. and from other 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.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company uses a number of non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful to investors
because they illustrate the performance of normal, ongoing operations, which is important in understanding and
evaluating the company’s financial condition and results of operations. They are not, however, a substitute for U.S.
GAAP financial measures. Therefore, the company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the
most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure at the end of the release. The company adjusts U.S. GAAP 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 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.

*Operating earnings versus U.S. GAAP (GAAP) net income available to common stockholders

Management uses operating earnings, which excludes the effect of net realized capital gains and losses, as adjusted, and other after-tax

adjustments, for goal setting, as a basis for determining employee compensation, and evaluating performance on a basis comparable to that

used by investors and securities analysts. Segment operating earnings are determined by adjusting U.S. GAAP net income available to

common stockholders for net realized capital gains and losses, as adjusted, and other after-tax adjustments the company believes are not

indicative of overall operating trends. Note: it is possible these adjusting items have occurred in the past and could recur in future

reporting periods. While these items may be significant components in understanding and assessing our consolidated financial

performance, management believes the presentation of segment operating earnings enhances the understanding of results of operations by

highlighting earnings attributable to the normal, ongoing operations of the company’s businesses.
