Prudential announced sales of its Brazil and Mexico operations and South Africa insurance business, and closed sales in Indonesia and Kenya.

Shareholder capital returns totaled $741 million, including $250 million in share repurchases and $491 million in dividends; third-quarter dividends were $1.40 per common share.
Prudential Financial, Inc. entered into definitive agreements to sell 100% of its equity interests in Prudential of Brazil and Prudential of Mexico to CNP Assurances Group for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.025 billion in cash, subject to certain closing adjustments. CNP Seguradora, CNP Assurances’ Brazilian subsidiary, is buying Prudential of Brazil, and CNP Assurances Holding is buying Prudential of Mexico.
Prudential expects the transaction to close in the second half of 2027, subject to receipt of regulatory approvals and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The company intends to use the proceeds to support its capital allocation priorities and invest in its highest-priority growth opportunities.
Prudential said the agreement follows sales of its interests in several joint ventures, including PT PFI Mega Life Insurance, Alexforbes and ICEA LION, which closed October 13, 2026. It described these transactions as part of its plan to exit emerging markets.
Prudential Financial, Inc. (PFH) provided preliminary, unaudited estimates for the quarter ended September 30, 2026: PGIM assets under management were $1.47 trillion, and PGIM other related revenues, net of related expenses, were approximately $20 million on an adjusted operating income basis. Alternative investment income for the General Account portfolio is estimated at approximately $15–$35 million above near-term expectations. The Japan Businesses sales suspension is estimated to reduce pre-tax adjusted operating income by approximately $140 million, including one-time costs primarily related to Life Planner compensation, lost sales and surrenders.
Effective in the third quarter of 2026, selected businesses, including Brazil and Mexico operations, moved to Divested and Run-off Businesses within Corporate and Other, and International Businesses was renamed Japan Businesses. Prudential’s indirect 40% interest in AFP Habitat moved to Retirement. These reporting changes are retrospective and do not affect previously issued consolidated financial statements. The revised second-quarter supplement reports first-half after-tax adjusted operating income of $2.524 billion, up 9% year over year, and net income attributable to Prudential Financial, Inc. of $1.582 billion, up 28%. The third-quarter estimates are unaudited, and actual results could be materially different; the quarterly earnings release and supplement are scheduled for November 3, 2026.
Prudential Financial, Inc. said Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) issued business suspension and improvement orders to its subsidiaries Prudential Life Insurance Company, Ltd. (POJ) and Gibraltar Life Insurance Company, Ltd. (Gibraltar), and a business improvement order to Prudential Holdings of Japan, Inc. (PHJ). POJ’s restriction on soliciting new business runs through January 31, 2027. Gibraltar’s partial suspension through that date applies to its Life Consultant channel, not its independent agency channel.
POJ, Gibraltar and PHJ must submit business improvement plans to the FSA by the end of November 2026 and report progress regularly. Prudential said Gibraltar contacted over two million customers in recent months, POJ and Gibraltar remain financially sound and able to meet their obligations, and the parent continues to provide support and resources. The suspension does not apply to Prudential Financial’s or PGIM’s other Japan business units, including Prudential Gibraltar Financial Life.

Six individuals, representing claims of 3 million yen, remained under review or awaiting resolution.
In separate inquiries, the Customer Reimbursement Committee completed review of 848 inquiries; 329 were eligible for reimbursement, representing claims totaling 2.57 billion yen. Prudential Life's customer-consented meeting-recording system, which uses AI to summarize meetings, began operating on October 7, 2026. Prudential Life plans to phase out 139 agencies in place nationwide as of July 2026 and ultimately establish 40 to 50 agencies. Seven agencies under the new structure will begin operating November 1, 2026, while 30 existing agencies will close; the company aims to complete the transition during 2027.

Segment results showed PGIM adjusted operating income of $294 million (vs. $229 million) and International Businesses at $855 million (vs. $761 million), while U.S. Businesses were essentially flat at $957 million. International constant-dollar sales declined 33%, primarily reflecting the Prudential of Japan sales suspension. Results incorporated both charges and benefits from annual assumption updates and sizable realized investment and market risk benefit losses.
Prudential Financial provided preliminary figures for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Assets under management in the PGIM segment were $1.49 trillion. PGIM’s other related revenues, net of related expenses on an adjusted operating income basis, were approximately $60 million for the quarter.
Alternative investment income in the General Account portfolio for the quarter is estimated to be $20–$40 million below the company’s near-term expectations. Following its annual assumption review, the company expects one-time adjusted operating income impacts in the second quarter, including about $(90) million in Retirement, and positive impacts of $80 million in International Businesses, $30 million in Group Insurance, $30 million in Individual Life, and $15 million in U.S. Legacy Products. The company does not expect material ongoing effects on adjusted operating income from these updates.
Prudential Financial, Inc. closed the sale of $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.250% Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2056. These long-dated junior subordinated notes add to Prudential’s existing listed junior subordinated notes on the New York Stock Exchange.

PGIM’s adjusted operating income increased 22% year over year to $190 million, while U.S. Businesses rose 3% to $956 million. International Businesses generated $810 million of adjusted operating income, a 4% decline, reflecting higher expenses tied to the Prudential of Japan sales suspension, partly offset by strong growth in Brazil.

Management cites greater-than-expected scope and complexity of needed operational, governance, organizational, compensation, and sales-conduct reforms.

Effective January 1, 2026, Prudential created a new U.S. Legacy Products segment for discontinued U.S. annuity and guaranteed universal life blocks, combined remaining annuity and institutional retirement products into a new Retirement segment, and left the Individual Life segment focused on actively sold term and universal life products.

Prudential Financial, Inc. disclosed that Potemkin Limited has launched an unsolicited mini-tender offer to buy up to 100,000 Prudential common shares, about 0.03 percent of shares outstanding, at $60.70 per share.
This price is approximately 37.36% below the $96.90 closing price of Prudential stock on April 10, 2026. Prudential does not endorse the offer, is not associated with Potemkin, and recommends that shareholders do not tender their shares. The company notes that mini-tender offers, which seek under 5% of a company’s stock, avoid many U.S. securities law disclosure and procedural requirements and therefore offer fewer investor protections.
The Potemkin offer is currently scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 26, 2027. Prudential states that shareholders who already tendered may withdraw their shares as described in Potemkin’s offer documents and asks that this news release be distributed with materials related to the offer.
Prudential Financial’s Japanese subsidiary, Prudential Gibraltar Financial Life Insurance Co., reported that 11 seconded employees removed agency information without permission from seven contracted financial institution agencies, covering 379 instances.

One inadvertent inclusion of customer data was identified, destroyed after discovery, and addressed by the agency in line with applicable laws.
Prudential’s unit will end secondments involved in life insurance sales activities to recruitment agencies by the end of March 2026, enhance compliance training and oversight, and strengthen cooperation between Compliance and Sales.
