ABOUT LSEG LIPPER AWARDS
The LSEG Mixed Asset Class Group Awards are given to the best large and small groups separately. Large fund family groups with at least three mixed-asset portfolios are eligible for the group award. The lowest average decile rank of the three years’ Consistent Return measure of the eligible funds per asset class and group will determine the asset class group award winner over the three-year period. PGIM funds in Lipper’s mixed asset category include: PGIM Target Date Fund series, PGIM Balanced Fund, PGIM Income Builder Fund and PGIM Real Assets Fund.
The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards, granted annually, highlight funds and fund companies that have excelled in delivering consistently strong risk-adjusted performance relative to their peers. The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards are based on the Lipper Leader for Consistent Return rating, which is an objective, quantitative, risk-adjusted performance measure calculated over 36, 60 and 120 months. The fund with the highest Lipper Leader for Consistent Return (Effective Return) value in each eligible classification wins the LSEG Lipper Fund Award. For more information, see lipperfundawards.com.

Investing in mutual funds involves risk. Some mutual funds have more risk than others. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost, and it is possible to lose money. There is no guarantee a fund’s objectives will be achieved. Fixed income investments are subject to interest rate risk, where their value will decline as interest rates rise. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Class R6 and Z shares may be available to group retirement plans and institutional investors through certain retirement, mutual fund wrap and asset allocation programs. Class Z shares may also be available to institutional investors and through fee- or commission-based retail brokerage programs of certain financial intermediaries. Class Z shares are generally closed to new retirement plans. Please see the prospectus for additional information about fees, expenses, and investor eligibility.
