Fees and/or expenses waived and/or reimbursed by PGIM Investments may be recouped by PGIM Investments within the same fiscal year during which such waiver and/or reimbursement is made if such recoupment can be realized without exceeding the expense limit in effect at the time of the recoupment for that fiscal year. This expense limitation may not be terminated prior to November 30, 2018 without the prior approval of the Fund's Board of Trustees.
Example. The following hypothetical example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. It assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then, except as indicated, redeem all your shares at the end of those periods. It assumes a 5% return on your investment each

year, that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same (except that fee waivers or reimbursements, if any, are only reflected in the 1-Year figures) and that all dividends and distributions are reinvested. Your actual costs may be higher or lower.
If the expense cap fee waivers and/or reimbursements were in place for the full 3-, 5-, or 10-year period, as applicable, expenses shown in the table would be lower.

Portfolio Turnover. The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. During the Fund's most recent fiscal period, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 5% of the average value of its portfolio.
INVESTMENTS, RISKS AND PERFORMANCE
The Fund pursues its objective by investing in a diversified portfolio of other mutual funds within the Prudential fund family (collectively, “Underlying Funds”) that represent various asset classes and sectors. The Fund will invest in Underlying Funds that provide exposure to fixed income, equity and non-traditional asset classes. The investments held by Underlying Funds that provide exposure to equities may include US large-cap equity, mid-cap equity and small-cap equity, as well as international developed markets equity, emerging markets equity and other non-US securities. Underlying Funds that provide exposure to fixed income may invest primarily in bonds, including below investment grade bonds, commonly known as “junk bonds.” Underlying Funds may gain exposure to non-traditional asset classes through investments in equity securities and related derivatives of issuers that are primarily engaged in or related to the real estate industry, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), commodity-related instruments and derivative securities or instruments, such as options and futures, the value of which is derived from another security, a commodity, a currency or an index.
More detailed information about the Underlying Funds appears in the section of the Prospectus entitled More About the Funds’ Principal and Non-Principal Investment Strategies, Investments And Risks.
The Fund is designed for investors expecting to retire in or close to the year 2030 (the “target date”) and who plan to gradually withdraw assets from the Fund over a moderate time period following retirement. In addition to the anticipated retirement date, relevant factors for selection of the Fund may include age, risk tolerance, other investments owned, and planned withdrawals. The Fund’s allocations among Underlying Funds (and asset classes) will change over time in relation to the Fund’s target date. The Fund’s asset allocations to Underlying Funds follow a glidepath that becomes more conservative prior to and for approximately 10 years following the target date, by reducing exposure to equity investments and increasing exposure to fixed-income investments (the “Glidepath”). Accordingly, the Fund’s exposure to equity investments may continue to decline until approximately 10 years after its target date, when allocations to equity investments and non-traditional asset classes (including US and non-US equities, commodities and real estate) will remain fixed at approximately 35% of the Fund’s assets, with the remainder invested in fixed income investments.
In this prospectus, we refer to both the “strategic Glidepath” and the “current Glidepath.” The strategic Glidepath reflects the allocations between equity/non-traditional and fixed income assets through time based on long-term investment views and participant demographics. The strategic Glidepath serves as an anchor from which allocations to equity/non-traditional and fixed income may deviate from year to year to reflect intermediate capital market expectations. The current Glidepath reflects such intermediate expectations. The current Glidepath is reviewed annually and deviations are constrained so as to preserve the general risk and return characteristics of the strategic Glidepath. The Fund’s allocations to the broad asset classes (equity, fixed income and non-traditional) as set forth in the current Glidepath are not expected to vary from the Fund’s allocations set forth in the strategic Glidepath by more than plus or minus 5%.
Where the term “Glidepath” is used by itself in this prospectus, it applies to both the strategic Glidepath and the current Glidepath.
The subadviser is responsible for asset allocation of the Fund and will monitor the Fund's investments in Underlying Funds on a regular basis in order to maintain the approximate allocation to each asset class. The Fund is “ratcheted” annually to shift the Fund’s allocation gradually from equity investments toward fixed income investments in accordance with the current Glidepath. In addition, the Fund is rebalanced periodically to maintain the target asset allocations dictated by the current Glidepath (as then in effect) with respect to the Underlying Funds in which the Fund is invested.
The following chart illustrates the Fund’s strategic Glidepath:
The information in the table below represents the current allocations for the Fund. The Fund’s shareholder reports will set forth its actual allocations among asset classes and among Underlying Funds.
Fund Name Equity and Non-Traditional Fixed Income
Prudential Day One 2030 Fund 69% 31%
Pursuant to the annual ratcheting described above, this asset class mix may change each year. In addition, the Fund’s subadviser will review the current Glidepath and the Fund’s asset allocations to Underlying Funds annually to determine, in its discretion, whether the then current Glidepath allocations remain suitable to meet the Fund’s investment objective. Based on such reviews, the subadviser may, without prior notification to shareholders, make changes to the current Glidepath and/or the Fund’s asset allocations as it deems appropriate to meet the Fund’s investment objective in light of market and economic conditions and such other factors as it deems relevant. There is no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be achieved.
The Fund shall maintain not less than the minimum total allocation to fixed income investments and such other constraints, if any, as may be required for it to be considered a Qualified Default Investment Alternative as defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and determined by the US Department of Labor.
At the time when the Fund’s target allocations match the asset allocations of the Day One Income Fund (the “Income Fund”), the Fund’s Board of Trustees may combine the Fund with the Income Fund without shareholder approval, and the Fund’s shareholders will become shareholders of the Income Fund. This is expected to occur approximately ten years following the Fund’s target date. This combination is expected to be tax-free under current law. Shareholders will be provided with additional information at that time.
Principal Risks. All investments have risks to some degree. An investment in the Fund is not guaranteed to achieve its investment objective; is not a deposit with a bank; is not insured, endorsed or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency; and is subject to investment risks, including possible loss of your original investment.
Target Date/ Income Risk. The Fund may suffer losses near, at or after the target date, and the Fund does not provide a guarantee that sufficient capital appreciation will be achieved to provide adequate income through retirement. The Fund does not assure an investor that he or she will be able to retire in the target year identified in the Fund name or that the assets in the Fund will provide income in amounts adequate to meet the investor’s retirement or financial goals. These risks may be increased to the extent that the participant begins to make withdrawals significantly before the Fund’s target year. For investors who are close to or in retirement, the Fund’s equity exposure may result in investment volatility that could reduce an investor’s available retirement assets at a time when the investor has a need to withdraw funds. For investors who are farther from retirement, there is a risk the Fund may invest too much in investments designed to ensure capital conservation and/or current income, which may prevent the investor from meeting his or her retirement goals.
Affiliated Funds Risk. The Fund’s Manager serves as manager of the Underlying Funds. In addition, the Fund may invest in certain Underlying Funds for which the subadviser serves as subadviser. It is possible that a conflict of interest among the Fund and the Underlying Funds could affect how the Manager and subadviser fulfill their fiduciary duties to the Fund and the Underlying Funds. For example, the subadviser may have an incentive to allocate the Fund’s assets to those Underlying Funds for which the fees paid to the Manager or the subadviser are higher than the fees paid by other Underlying Funds for which the subadviser also serves as a subadviser. However, the Fund has adopted procedures to mitigate these concerns.
Asset Allocation Risk. The Fund’s risks will directly correspond to the risks of the Underlying Funds in which it invests. By investing in many Underlying Funds, the Fund has partial exposure to the risks of many different areas in the market, and the Fund’s overall level of risk should decline over time. However, the selection of the Underlying Funds and the allocation of the Fund’s assets among the various asset classes and market sectors could cause the Fund to underperform other funds with a similar investment objective.
Asset Class Variation Risk. The Underlying Funds invest principally in the securities constituting their asset class (i.e., equity, non-traditional and fixed income). However, under normal market conditions, an Underlying Fund may vary the percentage of assets in these securities (subject to any applicable regulatory requirements). Depending on the percentage of securities in a particular asset class held by the Underlying Funds at any given time and the percentage of the Fund's assets invested in various Underlying Funds, the Fund's actual exposure to the securities in a particular asset class may vary substantially from the allocation to that asset class.
Fund of Funds Risk. The value of an investment in the Fund will be related, to a substantial degree, to the investment performance of the Underlying Funds in which it invests. Therefore, the principal risks of investing in the Fund are closely related to the principal risks associated with these Underlying Funds and their investments. Because the Fund’s allocation among different Underlying Funds and direct investments in securities and derivatives will vary, an investment in the Fund may be subject to any and all of these risks at different times and to different degrees. Investing in an Underlying Fund will also expose the Fund to a pro rata portion of the Underlying Fund’s fees and expenses. In addition, one Underlying Fund may buy the same securities that another Underlying Fund sells. Therefore, the Fund would indirectly bear the costs of these trades without accomplishing the investment purpose.
Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund does not intend to re-allocate assets among the Underlying Funds frequently in response to day-to-day changes in markets. Historically, however, certain Underlying Funds have actively and frequently traded their portfolio securities. High portfolio turnover results in higher transaction costs and can affect an Underlying Fund's, and, therefore, the Fund's, performance.
Risk of Increase in Expenses. Your actual cost of investing in the Fund may be higher than the expenses shown in the expense table for a variety of reasons. For example, expense ratios may be higher than those shown if average net assets decrease. Net assets are more likely to decrease and Fund expense ratios are more likely to increase when markets are volatile. Active and frequent trading of Underlying Fund securities can increase expenses.
Credit Risk, Market Risk and Interest Rate Risk. Certain Underlying Funds may invest in debt obligations. Debt obligations have credit, market and interest rate risks. Credit risk is the possibility that an issuer of a debt obligation fails to pay interest or repay principal to the Underlying Fund. Market risk, which may affect an industry, a sector or the entire market, is the possibility that the market value of an investment may move up or down and that its movement may occur quickly or unpredictably. Interest rate risk refers to the fact that the value of most bonds will fall when interest rates rise. An Underlying Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk since the US Federal Reserve Board has ended its quantitative easing program and may continue to raise rates. An Underlying Fund may lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply or in a manner not anticipated by the subadviser. The longer the maturity and the lower the credit quality of a bond, the more likely its value will decline.
Derivatives Risk. Certain Underlying Funds may invest in derivatives. Using derivatives can increase Underlying Fund losses and reduce opportunities for gains when market prices, interest rates, currency rates or the derivatives themselves behave in a way not anticipated by the Underlying Fund. Using derivatives also can have a leveraging effect and increase Underlying Fund volatility. An Underlying Fund can lose more than the amount it invests in a derivative. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. Derivatives may be difficult to sell, unwind or value, and the counterparty may default on its obligations to the Underlying Fund. Use of derivatives may have different tax consequences for the Underlying Fund than an investment in the underlying instrument, and such differences may affect the amount, timing and character of income distributed to shareholders.
Recent legislation both in the United States and in Europe calls for new regulation of the derivatives markets. The extent and impact of the regulation are not yet fully known and may not be for some time. Additional regulation of derivatives may make them more costly, may limit their availability, or may otherwise adversely affect their value or performance. In December 2015, the SEC proposed a new rule that would change the regulation of the use of derivatives by regulated investment companies. If adopted as proposed, the rule could require changes to the Underlying Funds’ use of derivatives.
Equity and Equity-Related Securities Risks. The value of a particular security could go down and you could lose money. In addition to an individual security losing value, the value of the equity markets or a sector in which an Underlying Fund invests could go down. An Underlying Fund's holdings can vary significantly from broad market indexes and the performance of the Underlying Fund can deviate from the performance of these indexes. Different parts of a market can react differently to adverse issuer, market, regulatory, political and economic developments.
Fixed Income Risk. As with credit risk, market risk and interest rate risk, an Underlying Fund's holdings, share price, yield and total return may fluctuate in response to bond market movements. The value of bonds may decline for issuer-related reasons, including management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods and services.
Certain types of fixed income obligations also may be subject to call and redemption risk, which is the risk that the issuer may call a bond held by an Underlying Fund for redemption before it matures and the Underlying Fund may lose income.
Fund Rebalancing Risk. Underlying Funds may experience relatively large redemptions or investments due to a rebalancing of the Fund's allocations. In such event, an Underlying Fund may be required to sell securities or to invest cash at a time when it is not advantageous to do so. Rebalancing may increase brokerage and/or other transaction costs of an Underlying Fund, increase the Underlying Fund's expenses or result in the Underlying Fund's becoming too small to be economically viable. Rebalancing may also adversely affect an Underlying Fund's performance and thus the Fund's performance. The impact of rebalancing is likely to be greater when the Fund purchases, redeems or invests in a substantial portion of an Underlying Fund.
The subadviser will seek to cooperate with the subadvisers of the Underlying Funds to minimize any adverse impact on the Underlying Funds. The subadvisers of the Underlying Funds may take such actions as they deem appropriate to minimize such adverse impact, considering the potential benefits of such investments to the Underlying Funds and consistent with their obligations to the Underlying Funds. Such actions may delay the rebalancing of the Fund's investments in the event of significant market or other events that may require more rapid action.
Investment Style Risk. Investment style risk is the risk that a particular style utilized by an Underlying Fund may be out of favor for a period of time.
Index Tracking Risk. While certain Underlying Funds generally seek to track the performance of an index as closely as possible (i.e., achieve a high degree of correlation with an index), the return may not match or achieve a high degree of correlation with the return of the index due to operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows, regulatory requirements and operational inefficiencies. If an index fund is properly correlated to its stated index, the fund will perform poorly when the index performs poorly.
Market Capitalization Risk. Certain Underlying Funds may invest in stocks of small- and medium-size companies which may present above-average risks. These companies usually offer a smaller range of products and services than larger companies. They may also have limited financial resources and may lack management depth. As a result, the prices of stocks issued by small- and medium-size companies tend to fluctuate more than the stocks of larger, more established companies. In exchange for potentially lower risks of investing in large capitalization companies, such investments may not rise as much in value as the value of investments in smaller-capitalized companies.
Market Events. Events in the financial markets have resulted in, and may continue to result in, an unusually high degree of volatility, both in non-US and US markets.  This market volatility, in addition to reduced liquidity in credit and fixed income markets, may adversely affect issuers worldwide.  Furthermore, the impact of policy and legislative changes in the US and other countries may not be fully known for some time.  This environment could make identifying investment risks and opportunities especially difficult for the subadvisers of the Underlying Funds.
Market Risk. Securities markets may be volatile and the market prices of an Underlying Fund’s securities may decline. Securities fluctuate in price based on changes in an issuer’s financial condition and overall market and economic conditions. If the market prices of the securities owned by an Underlying Fund fall, the value of the Fund’s investment in the Underlying Fund will decline.
Management Risk. The value of your investment may decrease if judgments by the Fund’s subadviser or the subadvisers of the Underlying Funds about the attractiveness, value or market trends affecting a particular security, industry or sector or about market movements are incorrect.
Performance. The Fund has not been in operation for a full calendar year, and hence has no past performance data to present. A number of factors—including risk—can affect how the Fund will perform in the future.
