GLOBAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT • ASSET ALLOCATION EXPERTISE • RETIREMENT LEADERSHIP

Mike Beer
President, Principal Funds

Dear Shareholder,

At the October Federal Open Market Committee meeting, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) voted to keep the benchmark interest rate at its current level, but announced that they are preparing for a possible increase in December based on the near balance of their dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability. October data suggests that the U.S. economy is growing and on stable footing. Indications are that recession risk is down, consumer balance sheets are the best in years, the job market remains robust, and the housing market continues to recover.

Globally, concerns about China remain and European growth continues to be slow. However, at the end of October, the European Central Bank reiterated that they would do whatever it takes to support the ongoing recovery in Europe, not only keeping interest rates unchanged, but potentially expanding the current program of quantitative easing.

Because markets tend to fluctuate, we believe the most prudent approach for investing is to select a portfolio allocation that is broadly diversified both across and within asset classes.1 We encourage you to work closely with your financial professional to select and monitor those investments best suited to helping you work toward and realize your financial goals.

Our focus at Principal Funds has always been on consistent, long-term performance for our investors. Our investment strategies cover a wide range of asset classes to help you diversify your portfolio as you save for the future—whether you are investing for goals that are years down the road, or closer at hand.

We strive to maintain a diverse investment lineup that helps meet client and investor needs. To address market interest in active exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and actively managed, multi-asset class strategies, we recently added an additional income-focused portfolio available as an ETF. Additional information on this strategy is available at https://www.principaletfs.com.

At Principal Funds, we're honored to be part of your investment strategy. On behalf of everyone at Principal Funds, I thank you for your business.


1 Asset allocation and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against a loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Economic & Financial Market Review

With unemployment in the U.S. down to pre-recession levels and the economy showing steady growth, it appears we are at the end of the seven-year era of low-ranging interest rates (between 0 percent and 0.25 percent). However, while economic data at the end of October appeared sufficient to satisfy the Federal Reserve’s dual mandate of low inflation and full employment, the decision made at the October 28 Federal Open Market Committee meeting was to wait until December to consider a rate hike.1

The unemployment rate has fallen to 5.05 percent (rounded to 5.1 percent).2 Wage growth has accelerated and household incomes are growing, with critical growth at the lower and middle-income sectors where expenditures were cut sharply during the recession and were slow to gain headway during the subsequent recovery.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all items was essentially unchanged over the last 12 months, while the CPI less food and energy increased at 1.9 percent overall over the past 12 months, the highest 12-month change since July 2014.2 In addition, the rate of savings from the gains due to the drop in oil prices has fallen and it appears that some “windfall” is being spent on new, larger, more expensive, and less fuel efficient vehicles than would have been the case absent the drop in oil prices. Not only are we experiencing auto sales at an 18.2 million annual rate (the fastest pace in more than 10 years) 3, but services and non-durable goods spending has picked up sharply. Further, the Federal Open Market Committee expects inflation to rise gradually toward 2 percent over the medium term as the labor market improves further and the transitory effects of declines in energy and import prices dissipate. Real personal consumption expenditures growth over the past five quarters depicts an ongoing consumer spending uptrend, with the second quarter 2015 showing an increase of 3.6 percent.4

While the U.S. economy continues to grow overall with the most recent gross domestic product (GDP) report showing 3.9 percent, the same cannot be said of overseas economies.4 Most dramatically, the Chinese economy has shown a deceleration of economic growth, reducing rates five times in the last year. European growth continues to limp along, and the Volkswagen emissions scandal at the end of September created a huge gap in the strongest economy in Europe. The European Central Bank’s October meeting concluded with a reiteration not only to keep interest rates unchanged but potentially to expand the current program of quantitative easing.5

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Security selection within mortgage-backed securities, as well as within below-investment-grade and investment-grade corporate bonds contributed. Overweight to asset-backed securities contributed. Overweight to commercial mortgage-backed securities contributed. Duration and curve positioning detracted as the portfolio was short duration relative to the index during times of declining interest rates at the intermediate and long end of the curve. An out-of-index allocation to below-investment-grade corporate bonds, overweight to investment-grade corporate bonds, and underweight to U.S. Treasury securities detracted. Security selection within emerging markets detracted.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Stock selection in the United Kingdom contributed, driven by overweight to Taylor Wimpey PLC, as a result of rising home prices, favorable mortgage rates, and supportive government initiatives. Stock selection in the financials sector contributed, driven by an overweight to CK Hutchison Holdings Ltd as a result of the Cheung Kong group restructuring into CK Hutchison Holdings and Cheung Kong Property Holdings being well received by the market resulting in a higher valuation for the combined entity. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector contributed, led by an overweight to Dollarama, the leading dollar store operator in Canada. Allocation to Japan detracted, led by an overweight position in OMRON Corporation. Stock selection in the consumer staples industry detracted, led by a position in Aryzta AG, the global leader of par-baked bakery goods. Stock selection in the industrials sector detracted, driven by an overweight position in Canadian Pacific Railway Limited due to weaker economic activity and lower energy related shipments.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Allocation to Hasbro, Inc. in the consumer discretionary sector was a top contributor as the licensing business that ties merchandise to box-office hits has become a very profitable business segment. Allocation to Kraft Heinz Company contributed as the company outperformed due to the merger between Kraft and Heinz. Allocation to Starbucks Corporation contributed as a result of continued positive execution operationally and financially. Allocation to Crescent Point Energy Corp. detracted due to the decline in oil prices and the weak Canadian dollar. Allocation to Marathon Oil Corporation detracted due to the company's exposure to commodity prices. Allocation to Royal Dutch Shell PLC detracted with the rest of the energy sector as stocks sensitive to commodity prices declined following the drop in oil.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Allocation to commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) contributed as the sector benefited from improving real estate fundamentals and strong investor demand for the asset class. Allocation to preferred securities contributed as they performed well in the falling interest rate environment and on the back of solid fundamentals in the banking sector (most issuance in the preferred security sector comes from this sector). Allocation to real estate investment trusts (REITs) contributed due to solid fundamentals, supported by strong labor market growth and modest new supply. Security selection within REITs contributed due to an emphasis on self-storage, which performed well as the recovery in the U.S. housing market is fueling demand for self-storage. Selection within office and hotel REITS also contributed. Allocation to master limited partnerships (MLPs) detracted the most from absolute performance as they were under pressure as falling energy prices led many investors to question the viability of the asset class. Allocation to emerging market debt also detracted as the asset class was swept up in the negative sentiment stemming from falling commodity prices and a slowdown in global growth led by deceleration in China. Within emerging market debt, overweight to Venezuela and underweight to the Ukraine detracted. Allocation to infrastructure equity detracted from performance as infrastructure stocks were under pressure from concerns about rising U.S. interest rates as well as from falling energy prices.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overweight to CubeSmart and the entire self-storage sector contributed as fundamentals remained strong due to technology efficiencies. Overweight to Simon Property Group contributed as the company has been able to backfill vacancies with better credit tenants and has increased private market transactions. Allocation to UNITE Group PLC, a student housing provider in the United Kingdom, contributed as a result of strong earnings results, projected record student enrollments, and extremely short supply. Underweight to Macerich Company detracted as the stock continued to perform well on the back of strong core headline results and positive market fundamentals despite the rejection of a potential takeover. Overweight to Pebblebrook Hotels was a top detractor due to weakening demand from transient travelers and visitors from overseas. Overweight to Boardwalk REIT, a Canadian residential company in energy concentrated markets, detracted due to concerns about the impact low oil prices will have on apartment demand in Boardwalk's markets.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Allocation to Jazz Technologies Inc. contributed. Allocation to Voya contributed as it outperformed over the year as the credit profile improved. Allocation to RKI Exploration & Production, whose bonds were acquired by WPX Energy, contributed. Allocation to Chaparral Energy Inc. detracted as crude prices have moved lower as the market focused on Chinese growth concerns, crude over supply, and equity market volatility. Allocation to Goodman Networks, Inc. detracted as the company continues to be challenged by reduced demand from key customer AT&T. Allocation to Texas Competitive Electric detracted as the company's bankruptcy will take longer than expected and operating results have been negatively impacted by the recent decline in natural gas prices.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Stock selection within the information technology, materials, and consumer discretionary sectors contributed. From a regional perspective, selection within the United Kingdom (notably housing related) and emerging Asia contributed to relative performance. Lack of exposure to consumer staples, sought after by investors as a "safe haven" despite their poor value, detracted from relative performance. Overweight positons in emerging markets was a detractor despite stock selection within those markets. Allocation to Europe was also a detractor.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Allocation to Nike contributed due to improved pricing, more efficient manufacturing, positive trends in footwear spending, market share gains, and increased sponsorship/licensing deals. Allocation to Starbucks Corp. contributed due to comparable store sales driven by expanded food offerings, the successful launch of premium beverages and teas, strong results in China and Japan, and the proliferation of mobile ordering and rewards card membership. Allocation to Royal Caribbean contributed due to improvement in trends in key markets, new policies to reduce discounts, stringent cost controls, declining fuel costs, and the reacceleration of onboard spending. An out-of-benchmark allocation to U.S. Steel Corp detracted due to weak pricing and volumes based on a stronger dollar, weak China manufacturing activity, and struggling emerging market economies. Allocation to Halliburton and Pioneer Natural Resources detracted due to temporary production cutbacks over concerns that oil producer capital spending budgets may be curtailed as a result of plummeting oil prices, excessive U.S. production, and above quota output by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

LargeCap Growth Fund I

Investment Advisor:
Principal Management Corporation

Sub-Advisors:
Brown Advisory, LLC; T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overall stock selection contributed, led by selection in the consumer discretionary and materials sectors. An average approximate 6% overweight to the healthcare sector also benefitted performance. Additionally, a lower dividend yield (a comparison of dividends paid relative to share price, in the absence of capital gains, the dividend yield is the return on investment) enhanced portfolio returns relative to the index. The portfolio's higher price volatility relative to the index (overweight position in stocks that have experienced more price movement than those within the index) detracted from performance. Poor stock selection in the energy and consumer staples sectors detracted. Overweight to the energy sector, relative to the index, hurt performance.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overweight to Tesoro Corporation contributed to performance due to higher than expected margins in California and the mid-continent. Overweight to Kroger, which reported solid earnings throughout the period and raised fiscal year 2015 (FY15) guidance, contributed. Overweight to Electronic Arts contributed to performance due to the console cycle and an increase in digital gaming. Overweight to Western Digital Corporation, a developer and manufacturer of storage solutions, detracted as the company faces tough competition as the industry continues to mature and consolidate. Overweight to ConocoPhillips, a large global oil company, detracted as energy prices fell. An overweight position in LyondellBasell Industries NV detracted as the recent fall in commodity prices have applied downward pressure on margins.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Allocation to O'Reilly Automotive contributed due to solid results, the benefit of low gas prices increasing total miles driven, and being well positioned as the average age of vehicles on the road increases. Allocation to Markel, a specialty insurance underwriter, contributed. Allocation to AutoZone, which has used available cash flow to buy back shares, contributed to performance. Allocation to Colfax detracted due to weakness within the company's end markets, the headwind of a strong dollar, and a temporary manufacturing problem which negatively impacted earnings. Allocation to Platform Specialty Products detracted as end markets for their products experienced cyclical weakness in the industrial and agricultural categories. Allocation to Discovery Communications, which owns an extensive library of non-fiction content and airs domestically on 14 channels and in over 210 countries on an average of eight channels per country, detracted due to an overall concern regarding the health of the domestic pay-tv advertising market.

Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC; Principal Global Investors, LLC

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overall stock selection contributed, specifically in the energy and consumer discretionary sectors. Overall sector allocation also added to performance, led by an average approximate 1% underweight to the energy sector, which was the worst performing sector in the index. Additionally, a higher relative strength profile (an overweight to stocks exhibiting upward price movement during the trailing period) than the index benefitted portfolio performance. An average approximate 4% overweight to the industrial sector detracted. Poor stock selection in the financials sector detracted. Additionally, the portfolio's higher price volatility (overweight position in stocks that have experienced more price movement) than the index detracted.

Allocation to Starbucks Corporation contributed due to strong returns as the company continued to execute well operationally and financially.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overweight to CubeSmart and the entire self-storage sector contributed due to strong fundamentals and technology efficiencies. Underweight to HCP, Inc. in the healthcare sector contributed as it underperformed due to deteriorating rent coverage from HCR ManorCare, its largest tenant. Overweight to Simon Property Group contributed as the company has been able to backfill vacancies with better credit tenants and increased private market transactions. Underweight to Macerich Company detracted as the stock rallied early in the year from the news of a potential takeover, strong core headline results, and positive market fundamentals despite the takeover rejection. Overweight to Pebblebrook Hotels was a top detractor due to weakening demand from transient travelers and visitors from overseas. Overweight to Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. detracted due to issues with their large presence in NYC and demand from overseas visitors.

Allocation to cash detracted.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Stock selection in the financials, information technology, consumer discretionary, and industrials sectors contributed most to performance. Allocation to Manhattan Associates, which provides retailers and wholesalers with software systems for supply-chain management, contributed due to better-than-expected operating results. Allocation to Rite Aid contributed as shares were up sharply on news that they agreed to be acquired by Walgreens Boots Alliance, a larger competitor. Allocation to Sabre, a company that provides technology solutions that enable airlines, hotels, and other travel suppliers to transact with travel buyers to manage reservations, contributed as a result of ongoing travel industry growth and increased outsourcing of IT solutions. Stock selection in the utilities and materials sectors detracted most from performance. Allocation to DeVry Education Group, a leading provider of for-profit educational services, detracted due to weaker-than-expected results that stemmed from decelerating enrollments. Allocation to SUPERVALU, a food retailer and wholesaler, detracted as food price deflation constrained profitability. Allocation to Worthington Industries, a steel processing company and manufacturer of pressurized cylinders, detracted as higher input and operating costs interrupted the company's plans for improving operating margins.

Dimensional Fund Advisors, LP; Los Angeles Capital Management & Equity Research, Inc.; Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, LP

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Overall stock selection across every sector contributed, led by the financials sector. An average approximate 6% overweight to the healthcare sector also contributed. A higher relative strength profile (an overweight to stocks exhibiting upward price movement during the trailing period) in relation to the index was beneficial to performance. A significant underweight of an average approximate 12% to the financials sector was a detractor from performance, as it was one of the better performing sectors in the index. Exposure to the energy sector also detracted as the sector was extremely negative for the year. Lastly, the portfolio's higher price volatility relative to the index detracted.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

October 31, 2015

1. Organization

Principal Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company and operates as a series fund in the mutual fund industry. The financial statements for California Municipal Fund, Core Plus Bond Fund, Diversified International Fund, Equity Income Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, Global Real Estate Securities Fund, Government & High Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, High Yield Fund I, Income Fund, Inflation Protection Fund, International Emerging Markets Fund, International Fund I, LargeCap Growth Fund, LargeCap Growth Fund I, LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, LargeCap Value Fund, MidCap Fund, MidCap Value Fund III, Money Market Fund, Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Short-Term Income Fund, SmallCap Blend Fund, SmallCap Value Fund II and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (known as the "Funds") are presented herein. The Funds may offer up to eleven classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class J, Class P, Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, R-5, and R-6. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to Class A, Class C, and Class P shares. Certain detailed financial information for Class J, Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, R-5, and R-6 classes of shares is provided separately.

Each of the Funds is an investment company and applies specialized accounting and reporting under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. Each of the Funds was an investment company at all times during the year. The Funds have not provided financial support, and are not contractually required to provide financial support to any investee.

Effective June 3, 2014, the initial purchases of $10,000 of Class A and Class P shares of International Fund I, MidCap Value Fund III, and SmallCap Value Fund II were made by Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”).

Effective June 3, 2014, the initial purchases of $10,000 of Class P shares of LargeCap Growth Fund I, LargeCap Value Fund, and SmallCap Fund were made by the Manager.

Effective February 20, 2015, Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund acquired all the assets and assumed all the liabilities of Core Plus Bond Fund I pursuant to a plan of acquisition approved by shareholders on February 13, 2015. The purpose of the acquisition was to combine two funds managed by the Manager with similar investment objectives, principal policies, and risks. The acquisition was accomplished by a taxable exchange of 8,899,000 shares from Core Plus Bond Fund I for 7,568,000 shares valued at $82,846,000 of Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund at an approximate exchange rate of .85, .84, .85, .85, .84, and .85 for Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5 classes of shares, respectively. The investment securities of Core Plus Bond Fund I, with a fair value of approximately $82,437,000 were the primary assets acquired by Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund were recorded at fair value. The aggregate net assets of Core Plus Bond Fund I and Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund immediately prior to the acquisition in accordance with U.S. GAAP were approximately $82,846,000 and $4,229,384,000, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund immediately following the acquisition were $4,312,230,000. In accordance with Sections 381-384 of the Internal Revenue Code, a portion of accumulated realized losses may be subject to limitations.

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on November 1, 2014, the beginning of the fiscal year for Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund, Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2015, would have been $112,191,000 of net investment income, $54,712,000 of net realized and unrealized loss on investments, and $57,479,000 of net increase in net assets resulting from operations. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund that have been included in Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund’s statement of operations since February 20, 2015.

Effective February 23, 2015, Class B shares discontinued operations and converted to Class A shares.

Effective February 27, 2015, the initial purchase of $10,000 of Institutional shares of California Municipal Fund was made by the Manager.

Effective May 18, 2015, the initial purchase of $10,000 of Institutional shares of Tax-Exempt Bond Fund was made by the Manager.

Effective August 24, 2015, the initial purchase of $10,000 of Class P shares of California Municipal Fund and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund were made by the Manager.

Effective August 31, 2015, Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund changed its name to Core Plus Bond Fund.

Effective August 31, 2015, SmallCap Blend Fund changed its name to SmallCap Fund.

1. Organization (Continued)

Effective April 24, 2015, Principal Capital Securities Fund acquired all the assets and assumed all the liabilities of LargeCap Blend Fund II pursuant to a plan of acquisition approved by shareholders on April 17, 2015. The purpose of the acquisition was to combine two funds managed by Principal Management Corporation with similar investment objectives, principal policies, and risks. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 64,280,000 shares from LargeCap Blend Fund II for 8,398,000 shares valued at $508,620,000 of Principal Capital Appreciation Fund at an approximate exchange rate of .13 for Class J, Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5 classes of shares. The investment securities of LargeCap Blend Fund II, with a fair value of approximately $540,086,000 and a cost of $486,868,000, were the primary assets acquired by Principal Capital Appreciation Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Principal Capital Appreciation Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from LargeCap Blend Fund II was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Principal Capital Appreciation Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. The aggregate net assets of LargeCap Blend Fund II and Principal Capital Appreciation Fund immediately prior to the acquisition in accordance with U.S. GAAP were approximately $508,620,000 ($5,882,000 of accumulated realized losses and $53,218,000 of unrealized appreciation), and $2,584,975,000, respectively. The aggregate net assets of Principal Capital Appreciation Fund immediately following the acquisition were $3,093,595,000. In accordance with Sections 381-384 of the Internal Revenue Code, a portion of accumulated realized losses may be subject to limitations.

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on November 1, 2014, the beginning of the fiscal year for Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, Principal Capital Appreciation Fund’s pro forma results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2015, would have been $38,239,000 of net investment income, $122,408,000 of net realized and unrealized gain on investments, and $160,647,000 of net increase in net assets resulting from operations. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Principal Capital Appreciation Fund that have been included in Principal Capital Appreciation Fund’s statement of operations since April 24, 2015.

All classes of shares for each of the Funds represent interests in the same portfolio of investments, and will vote together as a single class except where otherwise required by law or as determined by the Fund’s Board of Directors. In addition, the Board of Directors declares separate dividends on each class of shares.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Security Valuation. The Funds (with the exception of Money Market Fund) value securities for which market quotations are readily available at market value, which is determined using the last reported sale price. If no sales are reported, as is regularly the case for some securities traded over-the-counter, securities are valued using the last reported bid price or an evaluated bid price provided by a pricing service. Pricing services use modeling techniques that incorporate security characteristics, market conditions and dealer-supplied valuations to determine an evaluated bid price. When reliable market quotations are not considered to be readily available, which may be the case, for example, with respect to restricted securities, certain debt securities, preferred stocks, and foreign securities, the investments are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Manager under procedures established and periodically reviewed by the Fund’s Board of Directors.

The value of foreign securities used in computing the net asset value per share is generally determined as of the close of the foreign exchange where the security is principally traded. Events that occur after the close of the applicable foreign market or exchange but prior to the calculation of the Funds’ net asset values are reflected in the Funds’ net asset values and these securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Manager under procedures established and periodically reviewed by the Fund’s Board of Directors. Many factors are reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value, including, but not limited to, price movements in ADRs, futures contracts, industry indices, general indices, and foreign currencies.

To the extent the Funds invest in foreign securities listed on foreign exchanges which trade on days on which the Funds do not determine net asset values, for example weekends and other customary national U.S. holidays, the Funds’ net asset values could be significantly affected on days when shareholders cannot purchase or redeem shares.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Certain securities issued by companies in emerging market countries may have more than one quoted valuation at any given point in time, sometimes referred to as a “local” price and a “premium” price. The premium price is often a negotiated price, which may not consistently represent a price at which a specific transaction can be effected. It is the policy of the Funds to value such securities at prices at which it is expected those shares may be sold, and the Manager or any sub-advisor is authorized to make such determinations subject to such oversight by the Fund’s Board of Directors as may occasionally be necessary.

Money Market Fund values its securities, other than holdings of other publicly traded investment funds, at amortized cost as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Other publicly traded investment funds are valued at the funds’ net asset value. Under the amortized cost method, a security is valued by applying a constant yield to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at maturity and the cost of the security to the Funds.

Currency Translation. Foreign holdings are translated to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at the daily close of the New York Stock Exchange. The identified cost of the Funds’ holdings is translated at approximate rates prevailing when acquired. Income and expense amounts are translated at approximate rates prevailing when received or paid, with daily accruals of such amounts reported at approximate rates prevailing at the date of valuation. Since the carrying amount of the foreign securities is determined based on the exchange rate and market values at the close of the period, it is not practicable to isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities during the period.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on security transactions, and the difference between the amount of dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies arise from changes in the exchange rate relating to assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, purchased and held in non-U.S. denominated currencies.

The following funds held securities denominated in foreign currencies that exceeded 5% of net assets of the fund:

Diversified     Global Real Estate     International          
                  International Fund I    
International Fund     Securities Fund     Emerging Markets Fund          
Euro 22.0 % British Pound Sterling 9.2 % Hong Kong Dollar 22.7 % Japanese Yen 25.8 %
Japanese Yen 15.4   Euro 9.2   South Korean Won 17.7   Euro 16.0  
British Pound Sterling 13.8   Japanese Yen 8.5   New Taiwan Dollar 15.3   Hong Kong Dollar 13.1  
Canadian Dollar 10.5   Hong Kong Dollar 6.7   Indian Rupee 8.0   British Pound Sterling 11.7  
Swiss Franc 7.0   Australian Dollar 5.2   Mexican Peso 7.0   New Taiwan Dollar 5.9  
            South African Rand 6.4   Canadian Dollar 5.9  

 

Income and Investment Transactions. The Funds record investment transactions on a trade date basis. Trade date for senior floating rate interests purchased in the secondary market is the date on which the transaction is entered into. The identified cost basis has been used in determining the net realized gain or loss from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments. The Funds record dividend income on the ex-dividend date, except dividend income from foreign securities whereby the ex-dividend date has passed; such dividends are recorded as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities are accreted/amortized over the lives of the respective securities. The Funds allocate daily all income and realized and unrealized gains or losses to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the value of shares outstanding (number of settled shares outstanding for Money Market Fund) of each class.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Expenses. Expenses directly attributed to a particular fund are charged to that fund. Other expenses not directly attributed to a particular fund are apportioned among the registered investment companies managed by the Manager.

Management fees are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the value of shares outstanding (number of settled shares outstanding for Money Market Fund) of each class. Expenses specifically attributable to a particular class are charged directly to such class and are included separately in the statements of operations.

Distributions to Shareholders. With respect to Money Market Fund, all net investment income and any realized gains from investment transactions are declared as dividends daily to settled shares of record as of that day. With respect to California Municipal Fund, Core Plus Bond Fund, Government & High Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, High Yield Fund I, Income Fund, Short-Term Income Fund and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, net investment income is declared as dividends daily to settled shares of record as of that day, and all distributions of realized gains from investment transactions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and distributions to shareholders of the other Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gain from investments and foreign currency transactions are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for net operating losses, foreign currency transactions, futures contracts, certain defaulted securities, sales of Passive Foreign Investment Companies, losses deferred due to wash sales, tax straddles, mortgage-backed securities, certain preferred securities, swap agreements, redemptions-in-kind, and limitations imposed by Sections 381-384 of the Internal Revenue Code. Permanent book and tax basis differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, they are reported as return of capital distributions.

Global Real Estate Securities Fund and Real Estate Securities Fund receive substantial distributions from holdings in Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”). Distributions from REITs may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain, or a return of capital to the Funds. The proper characterization of REIT distributions is generally not known until after the end of each calendar year. As such, estimates must be used in reporting the character of income and distributions for financial statement purposes.

Federal Income Taxes. No provision for federal income taxes is considered necessary because each of the Funds intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under the Internal Revenue Code and intends to distribute each year substantially all of its net investment income and realized capital gains to shareholders.

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that each tax position would be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. During the year ended October 31, 2015, the Funds did not record any such tax benefit or expense in the accompanying financial statements. The statute of limitations remains open for the fiscal years from 2012-2015. No examinations are in progress at this time.

Foreign Taxes. Certain of the Funds are subject to foreign income taxes imposed by certain countries in which they invest. Foreign income taxes are accrued by the Funds as a reduction of income. These amounts are shown as withholding tax on foreign dividends on the statements of operations. In consideration of recent decisions rendered by European courts, the Funds have filed additional tax reclaims for taxes withheld in prior years. Due to the uncertainty and timing of these reclaims, a corresponding receivable will only be booked when both the amount is known and significant uncertainties regarding collectability are removed. The receivable amount is shown as dividends and interest receivable on the statements of assets and liabilities.

Gains realized upon the disposition of certain foreign securities held by the Funds may be subject to capital gains tax, payable prior to repatriation of sale proceeds. The tax is computed on certain net realized gains and, if any, is shown on the statement of operations. Realized losses in excess of gains may be carried forward to offset future gains. In addition, the Funds accrue an estimated deferred tax liability for future gains on certain foreign securities. Any accrued tax liability is shown on the statement of assets and liabilities. At October 31, 2015, Diversified International Fund had no foreign tax refund receivable and had a deferred tax liability of $232,000 and International Emerging Markets Fund had a foreign tax refund receivable of $143,000 and had a deferred tax liability of $389,000 relating to foreign securities.

3. Operating Policies

Borrowings. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds and other registered investment companies managed by the Manager may participate in an interfund lending facility (“Facility”). The Facility allows the Funds to borrow money from or loan money to the other participants. Loans under the Facility are made to handle unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest paid and received on borrowings is the average of the current repurchase agreement rate and the bank loan rate (the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate or (ii) the One Month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%). During the year ended October 31, 2015, Diversified International Fund, Global Real Estate Securities Fund, Government & High Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, High Yield Fund I, International Emerging Markets Fund, International Fund I, LargeCap Value Fund, MidCap Fund, Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Short-Term Income Fund, and SmallCap Value Fund II each borrowed from the Facility. Core Plus Bond Fund, Diversified International Fund, Equity Income Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, Global Real Estate Securities Fund, Government & High Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, High Yield Fund I, Income Fund, International Emerging Markets Fund, International Fund I, LargeCap Growth Fund, LargeCap Growth Fund I, LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, LargeCap Value Fund, MidCap Fund, MidCap Value Fund III, Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Short-Term Income Fund, SmallCap Fund, and SmallCap Value Fund II each loaned to the Facility. The interest expense associated with these borrowings is included in other expenses on the statements of operations. The interest received is included in interest on the statements of operations.

In addition, certain of the Funds participate with other registered investment companies managed by the Manager in an unsecured joint line of credit with a bank which allows the participants to borrow up to $75 million, collectively. Borrowings are made solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to each participant, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate or the One Month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Additionally, a commitment fee is charged at an annual rate of .10% on the amount of the line of credit. During the year ended October 31, 2015, California Municipal Fund, Core Plus Bond Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, International Emerging Markets Fund, and Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, borrowed against the line of credit. The interest expense associated with these borrowings is included in other expenses on the statements of operations.

Credit Linked Notes. Global Diversified Income Fund invests in structured notes whose market values are primarily derived from changes in the value of various credit indices and other factors. Valuations on these securities may be volatile as the payment features on certain notes may contain attributes that multiply the effects of changes in the values of the underlying indices. Structured notes may entail a greater degree of market risk than other types of debt securities. Structured notes may also be more volatile, less liquid, and more difficult to accurately price than less complex securities or more traditional debt securities. Fluctuations in value of the structured notes are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in the accompanying financial statements. Interest income is accrued daily. These notes are subject to prepayment, credit, and interest rate risks. At maturity, or when a note is sold, the Fund records a realized gain or loss.

Counterparties. The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that another party with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions will fail to perform on their commitment. To the extent that unpaid amounts owed to the Funds exceed a predetermined threshold agreed to with the counterparty, such counterparty shall advance collateral to the Funds in the form of cash or cash equivalents equal in value to the unpaid amount owed to the Funds. If the unpaid amount owed to the Funds subsequently decreases, the Funds would be required to return all or a portion of the collateral.

Master Netting Agreements may also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions governed under the relevant master netting agreement with a counterparty exceeds a specified threshold.

Core Plus Bond Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, and Inflation Protection Fund have financial instruments that are subject to Master Netting Agreements or similar agreements.

^      The counterparty has pledged cash or securities to the Fund as collateral in a segregated account which is not included in the assets of the Fund.

The financial instruments that are subject to Master Netting Agreements or similar agreements may include right of setoff provisions. Derivative instruments include provisions to setoff positions covered under the agreements with the same counterparties and provisions to setoff positions outside of the agreements with the same counterparties in the event of default by one of the parties. Derivative instruments also include collateral provisions. Collateral received and pledged are generally settled daily with each counterparty.

Floating Rate Notes Issued in Conjunction with Securities Held. California Municipal Fund and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund have entered into transactions in which a fund transfers fixed rate bonds to trusts in exchange for cash and residual interests in the trusts’ assets and cash flows, which are in the form of inverse floating rate securities. The trusts finance the purchases of the fixed rate bonds by issuing floating rate notes to third parties. The fund enters into shortfall and forbearance agreements with the trusts, which commit the fund to pay the trusts, in certain circumstances, the difference between the liquidation value of the fixed rate bonds held by the trusts and the liquidation value of the floating rate notes held by third parties, as well as any shortfalls in interest cash flows. The residual interests held by the fund (inverse floating rate securities) include the right of the fund (1) to cause the holders of the floating rate notes to tender their notes at par at the next interest rate reset date, and (2) to transfer the fixed rate bond from the trusts to the fund, thereby collapsing the trusts. The fund accounts for the transfer of bonds to the trusts as secured borrowings, with the securities transferred remaining in the fund’s investment assets, and the related floating rate notes reflected as fund liabilities under the caption “floating rate notes issued” in the statement of assets and liabilities. The notes issued by the trusts have interest rates that reset weekly, and the floating rate note holders have the option to tender their notes to the trusts for redemption at par at each reset date.

Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain of the Funds may be subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing such Fund’s investment objective. The Funds may use foreign currency contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against changes in the value of foreign currencies. Certain of the Funds enter into forward contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies at a specified future date at a fixed exchange rate. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the forward rate, and are marked-to-market daily. The change in market value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

3. Operating Policies (Continued)

The use of forward foreign currency contracts does not eliminate the fluctuations in underlying prices of the Funds’ portfolio securities, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign currency contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the Funds could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably to the U.S. dollar.

Futures Contracts. The Funds are subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Funds (with the exception of Money Market Fund) may enter into futures contracts to hedge against changes in or to gain exposure to, change in the value of equities, interest rates and foreign currencies. Initial margin deposits are made by cash deposits or segregation of specific securities as may be required by the exchange on which the transaction was conducted. Pursuant to the contracts, a fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker, an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the fund as a variation margin receivable or payable on financial derivative instruments. During the period the futures contracts are open, daily changes in the fair value of the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses. These unrealized gains or losses are included as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments on the statements of assets and liabilities. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing transaction and the fund’s cost basis in the contract. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds because futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

Illiquid Securities. Illiquid securities generally cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business (within seven calendar days) at approximately the value at which each of the Funds has valued the investments. This may have an adverse effect on each of the Funds’ ability to dispose of particular illiquid securities at fair market value and may limit each of the Funds’ ability to obtain accurate market quotations for purposes of valuing the securities.

Indemnification. Under the Fund’s by-laws, present and past officers, directors and employees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into a variety of contracts that may contain representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds. Certain of the Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed-income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest will be paid based on a principal value, which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income on the statements of operations, even though the Funds would not receive the principal until maturity.

Joint Trading Account. Certain of the Funds may, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, transfer uninvested funds into a joint trading account. The order permits the participating Funds’ cash balances to be deposited into a single joint account along with the cash of other registered investment companies managed by the Manager. These balances may be invested in one or more short-term instruments or repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. government securities. Earnings from the joint trading account are allocated to each of the Funds based on their pro rata participating ownership interest in the joint trading account.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls. Certain of the Funds have entered into mortgage-dollar-roll transactions on “to-be-announced” securities (“TBA’s”), in which the Funds sell mortgage-backed securities and simultaneously agree to purchase similar securities in the future at a predetermined price. The proceeds of the securities sold in mortgage-dollar-roll transactions are invested in additional securities. The Funds forgo principal and interest paid on the securities, and are compensated by interest earned on the proceeds of the initial sale and by a lower price on the securities to be repurchased. The Funds treat mortgage-dollar-roll transactions as purchases and sales; as such, these transactions may increase the Funds’ portfolio turnover ratio. Amounts to be received or paid in connection with open mortgage-dollar-rolls are included in Investment securities sold and Investment securities purchased on the statements of assets and liabilities.

During the period Global Diversified Income Fund and Inflation Protection Fund wrote call and put options on futures, swaps, securities, indices and currencies they own or in which they may invest and inflation floors for both hedging and non-hedging purposes. Writing put options tends to increase a fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease a fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When a fund writes a call or put option and inflation floor, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. An inflation floor can give downside protection to investments in inflation-linked products. These liabilities are reflected as options contracts written on the statements of assets and liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security, index or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A fund, as a writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security, index or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security, index or currency underlying the written option. There is the risk a fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market. A fund may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase a fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease a fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. A fund pays a premium which is included on the fund’s statements of assets and liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security, index or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. Details of options contracts open at year end are included in the Funds' schedules of investments. Transactions in options written during the year ended October 31, 2015, were as follows:

Rebates. Subject to best execution, the Funds may direct certain portfolio transactions to brokerage firms that, in turn, have agreed to rebate a portion of the related brokerage commission to the Funds in cash. Commission rebates are included as a component of realized gain from investment transactions in the statements of operations.

Repurchase Agreements. The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized, typically by U.S. government or U.S. government agency securities. It is the Funds’ policy that its custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities. The fair value of the collateral is at all times at least equal to the total amount of the repurchase obligation. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Funds have the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event the seller of a repurchase agreement defaults, the Funds could experience delays in the realization of the collateral.

Restricted Securities. Certain of the Funds may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.

3. Operating Policies (Continued)

Senior Floating Rate Interests. The Funds may invest in senior floating rate interests (bank loans). Senior floating rate interests hold the most senior position in the capital structure of a business entity (the “Borrower”), are typically secured by specific collateral and have a claim on the assets and/or stock of the Borrower that is senior to that held by subordinated debtholders and stockholders of the Borrower. Senior floating rate interests are typically structured and administered by a financial institution that acts as the agent of the lenders participating in the senior floating rate interest. Senior floating rate interests are typically rated below-investment-grade, which means they are more likely to default than investment-grade loans. A default could lead to non-payment of income which would result in a reduction of income to the fund and there can be no assurance that the liquidation of any collateral would satisfy the Borrower’s obligation in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal payments, or that such collateral could be readily liquidated.

Senior floating rate interests pay interest at rates which are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. These base lending rates are generally the prime rate offered by a designated U.S. bank or the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks.

Senior floating rate interests generally are subject to mandatory and/or optional prepayment. Because of these mandatory prepayment conditions and because there may be significant economic incentives for the Borrower to repay, prepayments of senior floating rate interests may occur. As a result, the actual remaining maturity of senior floating rate interests may be substantially less than stated maturities shown in the schedules of investments.

In connection with the Senior floating rate interests, the Funds may also enter into unfunded loan commitments (“commitments”). All or a portion of the commitments may be unfunded. The Funds are obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. Therefore, the Funds must have funds sufficient to cover its contractual obligation. Unfunded loan commitments are marked to market daily and the unrealized gain or loss is shown as a separate line item called unfunded loan commitments on the statements of assets and liabilities. As of October 31, 2015, the unfunded loan commitments were as follows (amounts in thousands):

    Unfunded Loan Commitment   Unrealized gain/(loss)
Core Plus Bond Fund $ 20,700 $
Global Diversified Income Fund   13,400  
High Yield Fund   37,700  

 

Short Sales. Global Diversified Income Fund entered into short sales transactions during the period. A short sale is a transaction in which a fund sells a security it does not own as a hedge against some of its long positions and/or in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the security. The fund must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker dealer which made the short sale. A security sold in a short sale transaction and the interest or dividend payable on the security if any, is reflected as a liability on the statement of assets and liabilities. The fund is obligated to pay any interest or dividends received on the borrowed securities. Interest accrued and dividends declared on short positions are recorded as an expense and appear as dividends and interest on shorts on the statement of operations. A fund is obligated to deliver the security at the market price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited.

The fund is required to pledge cash or securities to the broker as collateral for securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Cash deposited with the broker for collateral is included in deposits with counterparty on the statement of assets and liabilities and securities segregated as collateral are footnoted in the schedule of investments. The fund may pay broker’s fees on the borrowed securities and may also pay a financing charge for the difference in the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. These fees are included as short sale fees on the statement of operations.

Swap Agreements. Core Plus Bond Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, High Yield Fund, and Inflation Protection Fund invested in swap agreements during the period. Swap agreements are privately negotiated agreements between a fund and a counterparty to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon, or calculated by reference to, changes in specified prices or rates for a specified amount of an underlying asset. A fund may enter into credit default, interest rate, or total return swap agreements to manage its exposure to credit, interest rate, or market risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency.

Swap agreements are valued through a pricing service or using procedures established and periodically reviewed by the Fund’s Board of Directors; changes in value are recorded as unrealized gain or loss. These unrealized gains or losses are included as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments on the statements of assets and liabilities.

Upon termination of swap agreements, the Funds recognize a realized gain or loss. Net periodic payments to be received or paid are accrued daily and are recorded in the statements of operations as realized gains or losses.

3. Operating Policies (Continued)

Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such on the statements of assets and liabilities and represent payments made or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, interest rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are amortized daily over the term of the swap agreement as realized gains or losses on the statements of operations.

Notional principal amounts are used to express the extent of involvement in these agreements. Risks may exceed amounts shown on the statements of assets and liabilities. These risks include changes in the returns of the underlying instruments, unfavorable interest rate fluctuation, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and the possible lack of liquidity with respect to the swap agreements.

The Funds and any counterparty are required to maintain an agreement that requires the Funds and that counterparty to monitor the net fair value of all derivative transactions entered into pursuant to the contract between the Funds and such counterparty. If the net fair value of such derivatives transactions between the Funds and that counterparty exceeds a certain threshold (as defined in the agreement), the Funds or the counterparty are required to post cash and/or securities as collateral. Fair values of derivatives transactions presented in the financial statements are not netted with the fair values of other derivatives transactions or with any collateral amounts posted by the Funds or any counterparty.

Credit default swaps involve commitments to pay a fixed rate at a predetermined frequency in exchange for a lump sum payment if a “credit event”, as defined in the agreement, affecting a third party occurs. Credit events may include a failure to pay interest, bankruptcy, restructuring, or other event as defined in the agreement. A “buyer” of credit protection agrees to pay a counterparty to assume the credit risk of an issuer upon the occurrence of a credit event. The “seller” of the protection receives periodic payments and agrees to assume the credit risk of an issuer upon the occurrence of a credit event. As the seller of credit protection, a Fund would add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

If a fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. If a Fund is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Fund will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.

Credit default swap agreements on credit indices involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising the credit index. A credit index is a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. These indices are made up of reference credits that are judged by a poll of dealers to be the most liquid entities in the credit default swap market based on the sector of the index. Components of the indices may include, but are not limited to, investment grade securities, high yield securities, asset backed securities, emerging markets, and/or various credit ratings within each sector. Credit indices are traded using credit default swaps with standardized terms including a fixed spread and standard maturity dates. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if there is a default, the credit event is settled based on that name’s weight in the index. The composition of the indices changes periodically, usually every six months, and for most indices, each name has an equal weight in the index. A Fund may use credit default swaps on credit indices to hedge a portfolio of credit default swaps or bonds with a credit default swap on indices which is less expensive than it would be to buy many credit default swap to achieve a similar effect. Credit-default swap on indices are benchmarks for protecting investors owning bonds against default, and traders use them to speculate on changes in credit quality.

For credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

Interest rate swaps involve the commitment to exchange cash flows based on changes in the value of a specific reference security or a basket of securities.

3. Operating Policies (Continued)

As of October 31, 2015, counterparties had pledged collateral for swap agreements of $2,810,450 for High Yield Fund. The collateral is maintained in a segregated account and is not recorded in the books and records of the funds. Certain collateral amounts relate to exchange cleared swaps which are not subject to master netting agreements with counterparties.

To Be Announced Securities. The Funds may trade portfolio securities on a “to-be-announced” (“TBA”) or when-issued basis. In a TBA or when-issued transaction, the Funds commit to purchase or sell securities for which all specific information is not known at the time of the trade. Securities purchased on a TBA or when-issued basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Funds, normally 15 to 30 days later. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other portfolio securities.

Underlying Funds. Principal LifeTime 2010 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2015 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2020 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2025 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2030 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2035 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2040 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2045 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2050 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2055 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2060 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2015 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2020 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2025 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2030 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2035 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2040 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2045 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2050 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2055 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hyrbrid 2060 Fund, Principal LifeTime Hybrid Income Fund, and Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund (collectively, the “Principal LifeTime Funds”) along with the SAM Balanced, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Growth Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio, and SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio (collectively, the “SAM Portfolios”) along with Real Estate Allocation Fund invest in Institutional Class shares of other series of Principal Funds, Inc. (the "Underlying Funds").

The performance and risks of each Principal LifeTime Fund, and SAM Portfolio (singly, “a fund of funds” and collectively, “the funds of funds”) directly correspond to the performance and risks of the underlying funds in which the fund of funds invest. By investing in many underlying funds, the funds of funds have partial exposure to the risks of many different areas of the market. The more a fund of funds allocates to stock funds, the greater the expected risk.

An underlying fund to a fund of funds may experience relatively large redemptions or purchases as the fund of funds periodically reallocates or rebalances its assets. These transactions may accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of portfolio securities result in gains and could increase transaction costs. In addition, when a fund of funds reallocates or redeems significant assets away from an underlying fund, the loss of assets to the underlying fund could result in increased expense ratios for that fund.

The Manager is the advisor to the Principal LifeTime Funds, PVC Principal LifeTime Accounts, Real Estate Allocation Fund, SAM Portfolios, PVC SAM Portfolios, PVC Diversified Balanced Account, PVC Diversified Balanced Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Growth Account, PVC Diversified Growth Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Income Account, and each of the underlying funds. Principal Global Investors, LLC ("PGI") is Sub-Advisor to the Principal LifeTime Funds, PVC Principal LifeTime Accounts, PVC Diversified Balanced Account, PVC Diversified Balanced Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Growth Account, PVC Diversified Growth Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Income Account, Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC (“Principal-REI”) is the Sub-Advisor to Real Estate Allocation Fund, and Edge Asset Management, Inc. ("Edge") is the Sub-Advisor to the SAM Portfolios and PVC SAM Portfolios. PGI, Principal-REI or Edge also serves as Sub-Advisor to some or all of the underlying funds. The Manager, PGI, Principal-REI, and Edge are committed to minimizing the potential impact of underlying fund risk on underlying funds to the extent consistent with pursuing the investment objectives of the fund of funds which it manages. Each may face conflicts of interest in fulfilling its responsibilities to all such funds.

As of October 31, 2015, the SAM Portfolios, Principal LifeTime Funds, Principal LifeTime Hybrid Funds, Real Estate Allocation Fund, PVC SAM Portfolios, PVC Principal LifeTime Accounts, PVC Diversified Balanced Account, PVC Diversified Balanced Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Growth Account, PVC Diversified Growth Managed Volatility Account, PVC Diversified Income Account, and PVC Multi-Asset Income Account owned the following percentages, in the aggregate, of the outstanding shares of the underlying funds listed below:

U.S. Government Agencies or Government-Sponsored Enterprises. Certain of the Funds may invest in U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises. U.S. Government securities are obligations of, and in certain cases, guaranteed by, the U.S. Government or its agencies. The U.S. Government does not guarantee the net asset value of the Funds’ shares. Some U.S. Government securities such as treasury bills, notes and bonds, and securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”) are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Other securities, such as those of the Federal Home Loan Bank are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Still other securities, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations.

Government related guarantors (those not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government) include FNMA and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). FNMA is a government sponsored corporation, the common stock of which is owned entirely by private stockholders. FNMA purchases conventional residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks, credit unions, and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC issues Participation Certificates which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but Participation Certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

Long equity futures contracts are used to obtain market exposure for the cash balances that are maintained by certain of the Funds and the notional values of the futures contracts will vary in accordance with changing cash balances. Long and short U.S. Treasury futures contracts are used to obtain interest rate exposure in order to manage duration of Core Plus Bond Fund and Inflation Protection Fund. The notional values of the futures contracts will vary in accordance with changing duration of these funds. The level of other derivative activity disclosed in the schedules of investments is representative of the level of derivative activity used in the Funds throughout the year ended October 31, 2015.

4. Fair Valuation

Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive upon selling a security in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the security at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Funds use various valuation approaches, including market, income and/or cost approaches. A hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Funds. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Funds own estimates about the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical securities as of the reporting date. The type of securities included in Level 1 includes listed equities and listed derivatives.

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.) Investments which are generally included in this category include corporate bonds, senior floating rate interests, and municipal bonds.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.) Investments which are generally included in this category include certain corporate bonds and certain mortgage backed securities.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the market place, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Funds in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value is a market based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant who holds the asset rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Fund’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Funds use prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date.

Investments which are generally included in the Level 3 category are primarily valued using quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for these investments. These investments are classified as Level 3 investments due to the lack of market transparency and market corroboration to support these quoted prices. Valuation models may be used as the pricing source for other investments classified as Level 3. Valuation models rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs such as prepayment rates, probability of default, or loss severity in the event of default. Significant increases in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Benchmark pricing procedures set the base price of a security based on current market data. The base price may be a broker-dealer quote, transaction price, or internal value based on relevant market data.

The fair values of these entities are dependent on economic, political and other considerations. The values of the underlying investee entities may be affected by significant changes in the economic conditions, changes in government policies, and other factors (e.g., natural disasters, accidents, conflicts, etc.).

Fair value of these investments is determined in good faith by the Manager under procedures established and periodically reviewed by the Fund’s Board of Directors. The Manager has established a Valuation Committee of senior officers and employees, with the responsibility of overseeing the pricing and valuation of all securities, including securities where market quotations are not readily available. The Valuation Committee meets monthly and reports directly to the Board of Directors. The Pricing Group who reports to the Valuation Committee relies on the established Pricing Policies to determine fair valuation. Included in the Pricing Policies is an overview of the approved valuation technique established for each asset class. The Pricing Group will consider all appropriate information available when determining fair valuation.

4. Fair Valuation (Continued)

The Pricing Group relies on externally provided inputs to value Level 3 securities. Security values are updated as new information becomes available. Valuation data and changes in valuation amounts are reviewed on a daily basis based on specified criteria for the security, asset class, and other factors. In addition, valuation data is periodically compared to actual transactions executed by the Funds (i.e., purchases/sales) and differences between transaction prices and prior period valuation data are investigated based on specified tolerances.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those instruments. For example, short-term securities held in Money Market Fund are valued using amortized cost, as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of these securities, but because the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The beginning of the period timing recognition has been adopted for the significant transfers between levels of each Fund’s assets and liabilities. There were no significant purchases, sales, or transfers into or out of Level 3, except as noted in the Level 3 roll forward.

The table below includes transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 as of October 31, 2015 due to lack of exchange traded valuation data; however observable market inputs were available to support these valuations:

Global Diversified Income Fund $ 6,812,481
High Yield Fund   50
High Yield Fund I   3,280,806
SmallCap Value Fund II   433,497

 

Below are transfers from Level 2 to Level 1 as of October 31, 2015 due to the resumption of trading for previous thinly traded securities:

Global Diversified Income Fund $ 10,592,677
SmallCap Value Fund II   504,624

Amounts in thousands

(a) The maximum potential payment amount that the seller of credit protection could be required to make if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement is $20,000.

(b) The market price and resulting market value for credit default swap agreements on credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit default swap as of the period end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

(c) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, used in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments requiredtobe made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

(a) The maximum potential payment amount that the seller of credit protection could be required to make if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement is $75,000.

(b) The market price and resulting market value for credit default swap agreements on credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit default swap as of the period end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

(c) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, used in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments requiredtobe made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Principal Funds, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of California Municipal Fund, Core Plus Bond Fund (formerly Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund), Diversified International Fund, Equity Income Fund, Global Diversified Income Fund, Global Real Estate Securities Fund, Government & High Quality Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, High Yield Fund I, Income Fund, Inflation Protection Fund, International Emerging Markets Fund, International Fund I, LargeCap Growth Fund, LargeCap Growth Fund I, LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, LargeCap Value Fund, MidCap Fund, MidCap Value Fund III, Money Market Fund, Principal Capital Appreciation Fund, Real Estate Securities Fund, Short-Term Income Fund, SmallCap Fund (formerly SmallCap Blend Fund), SmallCap Value Fund II and Tax-Exempt Bond Fund (26 of the portfolios constituting Principal Funds, Inc., collectively, the “Funds”), as of October 31, 2015, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2015, by correspondence with the custodian, agent banks, and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers or agent banks were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds listed above constituting portfolios within Principal Funds, Inc. at October 31, 2015, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. An annual fee of $15.00 or $30.00 may apply to IRA accounts and 403(b) accounts, respectively. These fees are not included in the table below. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in Principal Funds, Inc. and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

FUND DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Under Maryland law, a Board of Directors oversees the Fund. The Directors have financial or other relevant experience and meet several times during the year to review contracts, Fund activities and the quality of services provided to the Fund. Each director also has the same position with Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc. which is also sponsored by Principal Life Insurance Company. Each director holds office for an indefinite term or until reaching age 72. Directors considered to be “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as shown below are considered to be interested because of an affiliation with the Manager and Principal Life Insurance Company.

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACTS

During the period covered by this report, the Board of Directors of Principal Funds, Inc. (“PFI”) approved (1) the annual review and renewal of the Management Agreement and various subadvisory agreements for all Funds; and (2) a Subadvisory Agreement with Logan Circle Partners L.P. related to the Global Diversified Income Fund.

Annual Review and Renewal of Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements

At its September 16, 2015 meeting, the Board performed its annual review and renewal process relating to the Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements for all Funds.

Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires the Board, including a majority of the Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory agreements and who are not “interested persons” of PFI, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), annually to review and to consider the continuation of: (1) the Management Agreement between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and PFI, on behalf of each of the seventy-nine (79) series of PFI (each series is referred to as a “Fund”) (2) the Subadvisory Agreements between the Manager and each of AllianceBernstein L.P.; American Century Investment Management, Inc.; Barrow Hanley Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC; BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.; Brown Advisory, LLC; Causeway Capital Management LLC.; Clearbridge Investments, LLC; Colonial First State Asset Management (Australia) Limited; Columbus Circle Investors; DDJ Capital Management, LLC; Dimensional Fund Advisors LP; Edge Asset Management, Inc.; Emerald Advisers, Inc.; Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P.; Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC; J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; Los Angeles Capital Management and Equity Research, Inc.; Neuberger Berman Fixed Income LLC; Origin Asset Management, LLP, Post Advisory Group, LLC; Principal Global Investors, LLC; Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC; Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated; Sawgrass Asset Management, LLC, Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.; Stone Harbor Investment Partners LP; T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.; Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C.; Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, LP; W. H. Reaves & Co., Inc.; Westwood Management Corp.; and William Blair & Company, L.L.C.; (collectively, the “Subadvisers”). The Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”

The Board, including the Independent Directors, considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. In evaluating the Advisory Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors, reviewed a broad range of information requested for this purpose by the Independent Directors, including, among other information, information regarding performance, advisory fees, total expenses, profitability from the Advisory Agreements to the Manager and information about economies of scale. The Board reviewed the materials provided and concluded that it was provided all information reasonably necessary to evaluate the Advisory Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of the services provided under the Management Agreements, including administrative services. The Board considered the experience and skills of senior management leading Fund operations, the experience and skills of the personnel performing the functions under the Management Agreement and the resources made available to such personnel, the ability of the Manager to attract and retain high-quality personnel and the organizational depth and stability of the Manager. The Board concluded that appropriate resources were provided under the Management Agreement. The Board also considered that, during the periods reviewed, other than for the “Core” portions of the Funds implementing the “Core Satellite” structure and the LifeTime Hybrid Funds, the Manager had delegated day-to-day portfolio management responsibility to the Subadvisers. The Board noted that the Manager’s process emphasizes the selection of Principal-affiliated subadvisers that are determined to be qualified under the Manager’s due diligence process, but that the Manager will select an unaffiliated subadviser to manage all of a portion of a Fund’s portfolio when deemed necessary or appropriate based on a consideration of the Fund’s investment mandate and available expertise and resources within the Principal organization. With respect to Funds with unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered the due diligence process developed by the Manager for purposes of selecting a highly qualified unaffiliated subadviser for a Fund and for monitoring and replacing unaffiliated Subadvisers. The Board concluded that this due diligence process was working well. The Board also considered the compliance program established by the Manager and the level of compliance attained by the Funds. The Board noted that they had previously reviewed the annual best execution and soft dollar reports and included those findings in their consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the Funds under the Management Agreement were satisfactory.

328


 

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services provided under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of investment personnel responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. The Board also considered the Subadvisers’ compliance with investment policies and general legal compliance. In addition, the Board considered the analysis provided under the Manager’s due diligence program, which resulted in the Manager recommending that each Subadvisory Agreement be continued. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Subadvisers to the Funds under the Subadvisory Agreements are satisfactory.

Investment Performance

The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over longer-term periods, reviewing both the investment return during the three-year period ended May 31, 2015 and the blended investment return (50%/50%) of the three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015, and compared those returns to various agreed-upon performance measures, including peer-group data based upon a broad-based, industry category determined by Morningstar. For Funds or Subadvisers that did not have a three-year or five-year performance history, the Board reviewed performance for a one-year or three-year period, respectively, noting that certain Funds had commenced operations recently and, accordingly, no performance information was considered. The Board also considered whether investment results were consistent with a Fund’s investment objective(s) and policies. For most Funds, the Board concluded that the Fund’s investment returns met acceptable levels of investment performance. There were certain Funds, and certain Subadvisers for multi-manager Funds, that had not attained during the relevant period a level of investment performance considered satisfactory by the Board. For such Funds, the Board also considered other factors, such as the longer-term performance of each such Fund. The Board considered the Manager’s due diligence process for evaluating performance applied to all Funds and all Subadvisers, from which they received regular reporting, and, for unaffiliated Subadvisers, concluded that the Manager has in place an effective due diligence process to monitor investment performance, to encourage remedial action and to make changes in the Subadvisers at the appropriate time, if necessary.

Investment Management Fees

The Board considered each Fund’s management fee. The Board received information, based on data supplied by Lipper, comparing each Fund’s (1) contractual management fee at current asset levels and at theoretical asset levels, (2) actual (after any fee waivers) management fee at average fiscal-year asset levels, (3) actual non-management fees at average fiscal-year asset levels, and (4) actual total expense ratio (including, as applicable, acquired fund fees and expenses) at average fiscal-year asset levels for Class A shares, where available, to advisory fees and expense ratios of mutual funds in a peer group selected by Lipper, or for one Fund, a custom peer group recommended by the Manager and reviewed by the Board (“Expense Group”) and a broad-based, industry category defined by Lipper (“Expense Universe”). For Funds that did not offer Class A shares or if Class A shares represented less than 5% of the Fund’s total assets, the information provided was based upon Institutional Class shares.

In evaluating the management fees, the Board considered a variety of factors, including the amount of the fees, breakpoints, comparison to fees of peer group funds as well as other funds managed by the Manager, subadvisory fees paid, services provided, investment performance, total net expense ratios, profitability and expense caps and fee waivers. For most Funds, actual management fees were within the third quartile or better when compared to their Expense Group. For some Funds, although actual management fees were higher than the third quartile, total net expense ratios were within the third quartile or better.

For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board considered information from management about the Manager’s unique strategic and tactical asset allocation processes employed in the management of the Fund and determined that the strategy and processes justified management fees higher than those paid by the funds in the Fund’s Expense Group. For each of the SAM Portfolios, with the exception of the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, the Board concluded that the Fund met performance expectations. For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board concluded that the total expense ratio (including the expenses of the underlying funds), with the continuation of the expense caps suggested by management, was within an acceptable range.

The Board also considered that the Manager contractually agreed to continue to waive a portion of its management fee for nine (9) PFI Funds that have implemented the “Core Satellite” structure. The Board also considered the expense caps and fee waivers that would be in place with respect to certain classes of various Funds.

329


 

With specific regard to the MidCap Growth Fund III, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (85%, 92% and 77%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the Fund’s performance in the third quartile of its Morningstar peer group for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (68% and 69%, respectively) and the tight range of the total expense ratios within the Expense Group.

With specific regard to the Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (93%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the second quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 and that its total expense ratio is in the second quartile (33%) when compared to its Expense Universe.

With specific regard to the Bond Market Index Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (99%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the lower ranking in the Expense Group (i.e., unusual circumstances of certain funds in the Expense Group), the competitiveness of the Fund’s total expense ratio (69%) when compared to the Expense Universe and that although the ranking of the Fund’s performance in its Morningstar peer group was in the third quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (65% and 63%, respectively), the Fund’s performance relative to the target index met expectations for each of the three-year and blended three-and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund, although the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (78% and 78%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the first quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, although the Fund underperformed its Morningstar peer group ranking in the fourth quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (81% and 82%, respectively), the Board noted that the same unique processes were employed for all the SAM Portfolios, which over the range of portfolios over an extended period had provided superior results, and that any particular Fund may compare less well as to a particular group of peer funds at a point in time, in this particular case because of a higher weighting in foreign securities than the funds in the peer group. Based upon all relevant factors, including the Boards’ view that these processes provide value to Fund shareholders over the long term, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed.

Considering all factors they deemed relevant, the Board concluded that the management fee schedule for each Fund was reasonable and appropriate in light of the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager and other relevant factors.

Profitability

The Board reviewed detailed information regarding revenues the Manager receives under the Management Agreement, as well as the estimated direct and indirect costs the Manager incurs in providing to each Fund the services described in the applicable Advisory Agreements, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Board also considered the returns on revenue generated in connection with the payment of subadvisory fees to affiliated Subadvisers (Principal Global Investors, LLC, Principal Real Estate Investors LLC, Columbus Circle Investors, Edge Asset Management Inc., Origin Asset Management LLP, Post Advisory Group LLC and Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.), and the aggregated return on revenue to the Manager and its affiliates. The Board concluded that the management fee for each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the profitability information presented by the Manager.

330


 

Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the management of each Fund and whether the Funds benefit from any such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. The Board also noted the new breakpoints being offered by management for three Funds. The Board then reviewed the levels at which breakpoints occur and the amount of the reductions. The Board considered whether the effective management fee rate for each Fund under the applicable Management Agreement is reasonable in relation to the asset size of such Fund. The Board concluded that the fee schedule for each Fund reflects an appropriate level of sharing of any economies of scale.

The Board noted that the management fees for the LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, the MidCap S&P 400 Index Fund, the SmallCap S&P 600 Index Fund, the Principal LifeTime Funds, and the Principal LifeTime Hybrid Funds do not include breakpoints. Although their management fee schedules do not include breakpoints, the Board noted that each of these Funds has a relatively low basis point fee (25 basis points or less) on all Fund assets.

Subadvisory Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

For each Fund the Board considered the subadvisory fees, noting that the Manager compensates each Subadviser from its own management fee, so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board also received industry data supplied by Lipper. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services provided to each Fund and, if so, whether the subadvisory fees reflect such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. In addition, in evaluating the subadvisory fees and the factor of profitability, with respect to unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered that the subadvisory fee rate was negotiated at arm’s-length between the Manager and each Subadviser. The Board considered the profitability of the affiliated Subadvisers in conjunction with its review of the profitability of the Manager.

Other Benefits to the Manager and Subadvisers

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits received by the Manager and its affiliates and each Subadviser from their relationships with the Funds. The Board also considered as a part of this analysis each Subadvisor’s soft dollar practices and brokerage practices. The Board concluded that management and subadvisory fees for each Fund were reasonable in light of these benefits.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information it considered and the conclusions it reached, the Board determined unanimously that the terms of each Advisory Agreement continue to be fair and reasonable and that the continuation of each Advisory Agreement, with the actions proposed by the Manager, is in the best interests of each Fund.

Logan Circle Subadvisory Agreement

On June 9, 2015, the Board considered for the Global Diversified Income Fund (the “Fund”) the approval of a subadvisory agreement (the “Subadvisory Agreement”) between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and Logan Circle Partners, L.P. (the “Subadviser”) with respect to a portion of the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund.

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services expected to be provided under the Subadvisory Agreement.

The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of the Subadviser’s investment personnel who would be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. In addition, the Board considered the Manager’s program for recommending, monitoring and replacing subadvisers and that the Manager recommended the Subadviser based upon that program.

331


 

The Board reviewed the historical one-year, three-year, five-year and since-inception (November 30, 2006) performance returns as of March 31, 2015 of the Subadviser in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the proposed strategy for the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the historical performance returns of the current subadviser to the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (which will remain a subadviser to a portion of such sleeve) in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the strategy for the investment sleeve of the Fund (one-year, three-year and since inception (March 30, 2012) only) (gross and net of fees) and a relevant benchmark index, and the annual performance of the Subadviser in the same composite for each of the last five calendar years (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the other subadviser’s composite (2013 and 2014 only) (gross and net of fees) and the relevant benchmark index. The Board also reviewed the percentile rankings of the historical performance of the Subadviser’s composite (net of proposed fees) and the other subadviser’s composite (net of fees) in a relevant Morningstar category for each of the periods and years referenced above. The Board concluded, based on the information provided, that the historical investment performance record of the Subadviser was satisfactory.

Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

The Board considered the proposed subadvisory fee, noting that the Manager compensates subadvisers from its own management fee so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services to be provided to the Fund under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Board noted that the proposed subadvisory fee schedule includes breakpoints and concluded that the subadvisory fee schedule reflects an appropriate recognition of economies of scale at currently anticipated asset levels. The Board considered the Subadviser’s representation that it does not offer other clients a lower fee for the specific mandate it will be managing for the Fund and the Manager’s statement that it found the proposed subadvisory fee schedule to be fair and competitive. On the basis of the information provided, the Board concluded that the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Other Benefits

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits to be received by the Subadviser. The Board noted that the Subadviser does not engage in soft dollar trading. The Board concluded that, on the basis of the information provided, the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board determined that the terms of the Subadvisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Subadvisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund.

GLOBAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT • ASSET ALLOCATION EXPERTISE • RETIREMENT LEADERSHIP

Mike Beer
President, Principal Funds

Dear Shareholder,

At the October Federal Open Market Committee meeting, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) voted to keep the benchmark interest rate at its current level, but announced that they are preparing for a possible increase in December based on the near balance of their dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability. October data suggests that the U.S. economy is growing and on stable footing. Indications are that recession risk is down, consumer balance sheets are the best in years, the job market remains robust, and the housing market continues to recover.

Globally, concerns about China remain and European growth continues to be slow. However, at the end of October, the European Central Bank reiterated that they would do whatever it takes to support the ongoing recovery in Europe, not only keeping interest rates unchanged, but potentially expanding the current program of quantitative easing.

Because markets tend to fluctuate, we believe the most prudent approach for investing is to select a portfolio allocation that is broadly diversified both across and within asset classes.1 We encourage you to work closely with your financial professional to select and monitor those investments best suited to helping you work toward and realize your financial goals.

Our focus at Principal Funds has always been on consistent, long-term performance for our investors. Our investment strategies cover a wide range of asset classes to help you diversify your portfolio as you save for the future—whether you are investing for goals that are years down the road, or closer at hand.

We strive to maintain a diverse investment lineup that helps meet client and investor needs. To address market interest in active exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and actively managed, multi-asset class strategies, we recently added an additional income-focused portfolio available as an ETF. Additional information on this strategy is available at https://www.principaletfs.com.

At Principal Funds, we're honored to be part of your investment strategy. On behalf of everyone at Principal Funds, I thank you for your business.


1 Asset allocation and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against a loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Economic & Financial Market Review

With unemployment in the U.S. down to pre-recession levels and the economy showing steady growth, it appears we are at the end of the seven-year era of low-ranging interest rates (between 0 percent and 0.25 percent). However, while economic data at the end of October appeared sufficient to satisfy the Federal Reserve’s dual mandate of low inflation and full employment, the decision made at the October 28 Federal Open Market Committee meeting was to wait until December to consider a rate hike.1

The unemployment rate has fallen to 5.05 percent (rounded to 5.1 percent).2 Wage growth has accelerated and household incomes are growing, with critical growth at the lower and middle-income sectors where expenditures were cut sharply during the recession and were slow to gain headway during the subsequent recovery.

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all items was essentially unchanged over the last 12 months, while the CPI less food and energy increased at 1.9 percent overall over the past 12 months, the highest 12-month change since July 2014.2 In addition, the rate of savings from the gains due to the drop in oil prices has fallen and it appears that some “windfall” is being spent on new, larger, more expensive, and less fuel efficient vehicles than would have been the case absent the drop in oil prices. Not only are we experiencing auto sales at an 18.2 million annual rate (the fastest pace in more than 10 years)3, but services and non-durable goods spending has picked up sharply. Further, the Federal Open Market Committee expects inflation to rise gradually toward 2 percent over the medium term as the labor market improves further and the transitory effects of declines in energy and import prices dissipate. Real personal consumption expenditures growth over the past five quarters depicts an ongoing consumer spending uptrend, with the second quarter 2015 showing an increase of 3.6 percent.4

While the U.S. economy continues to grow overall with the most recent gross domestic product (GDP) report showing 3.9 percent, the same cannot be said of overseas economies.4 Most dramatically, the Chinese economy has shown a deceleration of economic growth, reducing rates five times in the last year. European growth continues to limp along, and the Volkswagen emissions scandal at the end of September created a huge gap in the strongest economy in Europe. The European Central Bank’s October meeting concluded with a reiteration not only to keep interest rates unchanged but potentially to expand the current program of quantitative easing.5

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

The Principal LifeTime Funds invest wholly in the Institutional Class shares of the underlying funds. Any specific performance comparisons of the underlying funds correspond to that share class.

Outperformance from active managers was most prominent in the U.S. and non-U.S. equity broad asset classes, and as such aided performance, most notably in later dated funds. The largest contributor to performance from a manager selection standpoint was from the Diversified International Fund (sub-advised by Principal Global Investors, LLC). Within the U.S. equity broad asset class, the Large Cap Value Fund III (sub-advised by Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC and Westwood Management Corporation) was a significant contributor to performance. An overweight to real assets was a significant detractor from performance as the master limited partnership, commodity, and natural resource stock asset classes were significantly negative. In addition to the asset class experiencing poor absolute performance, the Diversified Real Asset Fund (sub-advised by multiple advisors) also detracted from a manager performance standpoint. The Core Plus Bond Fund (sub-advised by Principal Global Investors, LLC) also detracted from a manager performance standpoint, most notably in near dated funds.

What contributed to or detracted from Portfolio performance during the fiscal year?

The Principal Strategic Asset Management (SAM) Portfolios invest wholly in the Institutional Class shares of the underlying funds. Any specific performance comparisons of the underlying funds correspond to that share class.

Strong security selection in large cap growth equities was the largest contributor to performance. Strong security selection in mid cap value equities contributed. Strong security selection in mid cap growth equities aided results. Strategic overweight to international emerging market equities was the largest detractor from performance, as international emerging market equities lagged U.S. and international developed market equities, partially due to global growth concerns. Security selection in international developed market equities detracted from performance. Strategic and tactical overweight to master limited partnerships (MLPs), which underperformed, hindered performance.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PRINCIPAL FUNDS,INC.
October 31, 2015

1. Organization

Principal Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company and operates as a series fund in the mutual fund industry. The financial statements for Principal LifeTime 2010 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2020 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2030 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2040 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2050 Fund, Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund (collectively, the “Principal LifeTime Funds”), SAM Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Growth Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio, and SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio (collectively, the “SAM Portfolios”) (known as the "Funds") are presented herein. The Funds may offer up to ten classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class J, Class P, Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, and R-5. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to Class A, Class C and Class P shares. Certain detailed financial information for Class J, Institutional, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, and R-5 classes of shares is provided separately.

Each of the Funds is an investment company and applies specialized accounting and reporting under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. Each of the Funds was an investment company at all times during the period. The Funds have not provided financial support, and are not contractually required to provide financial support to any investee.

Effective February 23, 2015, Class B shares discontinued operations and converted to Class A shares.

Effective August 24, 2015, the initial purchase of $10,000 of Class P shares of SAM Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Growth Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio and SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio were made by Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”).

All classes of shares for each of the Funds represent interests in the same portfolio of investments, and will vote together as a single class except where otherwise required by law or as determined by the Fund’s Board of Directors. In addition, the Board of Directors declares separate dividends on each class of shares.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:

Security Valuation. The Funds invest in Institutional Class shares of other series of Principal Funds, Inc. (the "Underlying Funds"). Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of each Underlying Fund on the day of valuation.

Income and Investment Transactions. The Funds record investment transactions on a trade date basis. The identified cost basis has been used in determining the net realized gain or loss from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments. The Funds record dividend income on the ex-dividend date. The Funds allocate daily all income and realized and unrealized gains or losses to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the value of shares outstanding of each class.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributed to a particular fund are charged to that fund. Other fund expenses not directly attributed to a particular fund are apportioned among the registered investment companies managed by the Manager.

In addition to the expenses that each of the Funds bears directly, each of the Funds indirectly bears a pro rata share of the fees and expenses of the Underlying Funds in which they invest. Because the Underlying Funds have varied expense levels and each of the Funds may own different proportions of Underlying Funds at different times, the amount of expense incurred indirectly by each of the Funds will vary. Management fees are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the value of shares outstanding of each class. Expenses specifically attributable to a particular class are charged directly to such class and are included separately in the statements of operations. Expenses included in the statements of operations of the Funds reflect the expenses of each of the Funds and do not include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds.

Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders of the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gain from investments are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for losses deferred due to wash sales. Permanent book and tax basis differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent dividends and distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, they are reported as return of capital distributions.

Federal Income Taxes. No provision for federal income taxes is considered necessary because each of the Funds intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under the Internal Revenue Code and intends to distribute each year substantially all of its net investment income and realized capital gains to shareholders.

The Funds evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that each tax position would be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. During the period ended October 31, 2015, the Funds did not record any such tax benefit or expense in the accompanying financial statements. The statute of limitations remains open for the fiscal years from 2012-2015. No examinations are in progress at this time.

3. Operating Policies

Indemnification. Under the Fund’s by-laws, present and past officers, directors and employees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into a variety of contracts that may contain representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund.

Borrowings. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds and other registered investment companies managed by the Manager may participate in an interfund lending facility (“Facility”). The Facility allows the Funds to borrow money from or loan money to the other participants. Loans under the Facility are made to handle unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest paid and received on borrowings is the average of the current repurchase agreement rate and the bank loan rate (the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate or (ii) the One Month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%). During the period ended October 31, 2015, none of the Funds borrowed from or loaned to the Facility.

The Funds participate with other registered investment companies managed by the Manager in an unsecured joint line of credit with a bank which allows the participants to borrow up to $75 million, collectively. Borrowings are made solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to each participant, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to the higher of the Fed Funds Rate or LIBOR Rate plus 1.00%. Additionally, a commitment fee is charged at an annual rate of .10% on the amount of the line of credit. The Funds did not borrow against the line of credit during the period ended October 31, 2015.

4. Fair Valuation

Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive upon selling a security in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the security at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Funds use various valuation approaches, including market, income and/or cost approaches. A hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Funds. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Funds own estimates about the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

4. Fair Valuation (Continued)

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical securities as of the reporting date. The type of securities included in Level 1 includes listed equities and listed derivatives.

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.) Investments which are generally included in this category include corporate bonds, senior floating rate interests, and municipal bonds.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.) Investments which are generally included in this category include certain corporate bonds and certain mortgage backed securities.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the market place, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Funds in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value is a market based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant who holds the asset rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Fund’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Funds use prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date.

The beginning of the period timing recognition has been adopted for the significant transfers between levels of each Fund’s assets and liabilities. As of October 31, 2015 there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 and 100% of the Funds’ investments were valued based on Level 1 inputs.

5. Management Agreement and Transactions with Affiliates

Management Services. The Funds have agreed to pay investment advisory and management fees to Principal Management Corporation (wholly owned by Principal Financial Services, Inc.). A portion of the management fee is paid by Principal Management Corporation to the sub-advisor of each of the Funds, which are affiliates of the Manager. The annual rate paid by each of the Principal LifeTime Funds is .03% of each of the Principal LifeTime Funds’ average net assets. The annual rate paid by the SAM Portfolios is based upon the aggregate average daily net assets (“aggregate net assets”) of the SAM Portfolios. The investment advisory and management fee schedule for the SAM Portfolios is .55% of aggregate net assets up to $500 million, .50% of the next $500 million of aggregate net assets, .45% of the next $1 billion of aggregate net assets, .40% of the next $1 billion of aggregate net assets, .35% of the next $1 billion of aggregate net assets, .30% of the next $1 billion of aggregate net assets, .25% of the next $9 billion of aggregate net assets, and .20% of aggregate net assets over $14 billion.

In addition to the management fee, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, and R-5 classes of shares of the Funds pay the Manager a service fee and an administrative service fee computed at an annual percentage rate of each class’s average daily net assets. The annual rates for the service fee are .25%, .25%, .25%, .25%, and .25% and the annual rates for the administrative service fee are .28%, .20%, .07%, .03%, and .01% for R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4, and R-5, respectively. Class A, Class C, Class P, and Institutional shares of the Funds reimburse Principal Shareholder Services, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) (wholly owned by the Manager) for transfer agent services.

5. Management Agreement and Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)

The Manager has contractually agreed to limit the expenses (excluding interest the Funds incur in connection with investments they make) for certain classes of shares of certain of the Funds. The reductions and reimbursements are in amounts that maintain total operating expenses at or below certain limits. The limits are expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets attributable to each class of shares on an annualized basis during the reporting period. The operating expense limits are as follows:

Period from November 1, 2014 through October 31, 2015  
  Class A   Class C Class P Expiration Date
Principal LifeTime 2010 Fund .41 % N/A N/A February 29, 2016

^ Period from August 24, 2015 to October 31, 2015.          

 

In addition, the Manager has contractually agreed to limit Class P expenses other than management and investment advisory fees and distributions fees and, if necessary, pay expenses normally payable by the Fund, excluding interest expense, expenses related to fund investments, acquired fund fees and expenses, and other extraordinary expenses, through the period ending February 28, 2017. The expense limit will maintain these expenses (expressed as a percent of average net assets on an annualized basis) not to exceed .20% for each of SAM Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio, SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, respectively.

Amounts owed to the Funds under the terms of the expense limitation agreements are reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as expense reimbursement from Manager.

Distribution Fees. Class A, Class C, Class J, R-1, R-2, R-3, and R-4 shares of the Funds bear distribution fees. The fee is computed at an annual rate of the average daily net assets attributable to each class of each of the Funds. Distribution fees are paid to Principal Funds Distributor, Inc. (the "Distributor"), the principal distributor of the Funds. A portion of the distribution fees may be paid to other selling dealers for providing certain services. The annual rates are .25%, 1.00%, .25%, .35%, .30%, .25%, and .10% for Class A, Class C, Class J, R-1, R-2, R-3 and R-4 classes of shares, respectively.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit the distribution fees (expressed as a percentage of average net assets on an annualized basis) attributable to Class J shares. The limit will maintain the level of distribution fees not to exceed .15% for Class J shares. The voluntary expense limit may be terminated at any time.

Amounts owed to the Funds under the terms of the expense limitation agreements are reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as expense reimbursement from Distributor.

Late-Year Losses. A regulated investment company may elect to treat any portion of its qualified late-year loss as arising on the first day of the next taxable year. Qualified late-year losses are certain capital and ordinary losses which occur during the portion of the Fund’s taxable year subsequent to October 31 and December 31, respectively. For the taxable year ended October 31, 2015, the Funds do not plan to defer any late-year losses.

Reclassification of Capital Accounts. The Funds may record reclassifications in their capital accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the total net assets of the Funds. The reclassifications are a result of permanent differences between GAAP and tax accounting. Adjustments are made to reflect the impact these items have on current and future distributions to shareholders. Therefore, the source of the Funds’ distributions may be shown in the accompanying Statement of Changes in Net Assets as from net investment income, from net realized gains on investments or from capital depending on the type of book and tax differences that exist.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Principal Funds, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Principal LifeTime 2010 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2020 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2030 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2040 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2050 Fund, Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund, SAM Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Growth Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio, and SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, (11 of the portfolios constituting Principal Funds, Inc., collectively, the “Funds”), as of October 31, 2015, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2015, by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent of the affiliated funds. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds listed above constituting portfolios within Principal Funds, Inc., at October 31, 2015, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLE
PRINCIPAL FUNDS,INC.
October 31, 2015 (unaudited)

As a shareholder of Principal Funds, Inc., you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution fees; and other fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Principal Funds, Inc. and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. As a shareholder of Principal LifeTime 2010 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2020 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2030 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2040 Fund, Principal LifeTime 2050 Fund, Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund, SAM Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Balanced Portfolio, SAM Conservative Growth Portfolio, SAM Flexible Income Portfolio, or SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, your fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of the expenses incurred by the investment companies in which the fund invests. These expenses are not included in the fund’s annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expenses paid in this example. If they were, the expenses paid would be higher.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2015 to October 31, 2015), unless otherwise noted.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. An annual fee of $15.00 or $30.00 may apply to IRA accounts and 403(b) accounts, respectively. These fees are not included in the table below. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in Principal Funds, Inc. and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

FUND DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Under Maryland law, a Board of Directors oversees the Fund. The Directors have financial or other relevant experience and meet several times during the year to review contracts, Fund activities and the quality of services provided to the Fund.

Each director holds office for an indefinite term or until reaching age 72.

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACTS

During the period covered by this report, the Board of Directors of Principal Funds, Inc. (“PFI”) approved (1) the annual review and renewal of the Management Agreement and various subadvisory agreements for all Funds; and (2) a Subadvisory Agreement with Logan Circle Partners L.P. related to the Global Diversified Income Fund.

Annual Review and Renewal of Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements

At its September 16, 2015 meeting, the Board performed its annual review and renewal process relating to the Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements for all Funds.

Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires the Board, including a majority of the Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory agreements and who are not “interested persons” of PFI, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), annually to review and to consider the continuation of: (1) the Management Agreement between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and PFI, on behalf of each of the seventy-nine (79) series of PFI (each series is referred to as a “Fund”) (2) the Subadvisory Agreements between the Manager and each of AllianceBernstein L.P.; American Century Investment Management, Inc.; Barrow Hanley Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC; BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.; Brown Advisory, LLC; Causeway Capital Management LLC.; Clearbridge Investments, LLC; Colonial First State Asset Management (Australia) Limited; Columbus Circle Investors; DDJ Capital Management, LLC; Dimensional Fund Advisors LP; Edge Asset Management, Inc.; Emerald Advisers, Inc.; Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P.; Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC; J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; Los Angeles Capital Management and Equity Research, Inc.; Neuberger Berman Fixed Income LLC; Origin Asset Management, LLP, Post Advisory Group, LLC; Principal Global Investors, LLC; Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC; Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated; Sawgrass Asset Management, LLC, Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.; Stone Harbor Investment Partners LP; T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.; Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C.; Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, LP; W. H. Reaves & Co., Inc.; Westwood Management Corp.; and William Blair & Company, L.L.C.; (collectively, the “Subadvisers”). The Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”

The Board, including the Independent Directors, considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. In evaluating the Advisory Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors, reviewed a broad range of information requested for this purpose by the Independent Directors, including, among other information, information regarding performance, advisory fees, total expenses, profitability from the Advisory Agreements to the Manager and information about economies of scale. The Board reviewed the materials provided and concluded that it was provided all information reasonably necessary to evaluate the Advisory Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of the services provided under the Management Agreements, including administrative services. The Board considered the experience and skills of senior management leading Fund operations, the experience and skills of the personnel performing the functions under the Management Agreement and the resources made available to such personnel, the ability of the Manager to attract and retain high-quality personnel and the organizational depth and stability of the Manager. The Board concluded that appropriate resources were provided under the Management Agreement. The Board also considered that, during the periods reviewed, other than for the “Core” portions of the Funds implementing the “Core Satellite” structure and the LifeTime Hybrid Funds, the Manager had delegated day-to-day portfolio management responsibility to the Subadvisers. The Board noted that the Manager’s process emphasizes the selection of Principal-affiliated subadvisers that are determined to be qualified under the Manager’s due diligence process, but that the Manager will select an unaffiliated subadviser to manage all of a portion of a Fund’s portfolio when deemed necessary or appropriate based on a consideration of the Fund’s investment mandate and available expertise and resources within the Principal organization. With respect to Funds with unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered the due diligence process developed by the Manager for purposes of selecting a highly qualified unaffiliated subadviser for a Fund and for monitoring and replacing unaffiliated Subadvisers. The Board concluded that this due diligence process was working well. The Board also considered the compliance program established by the Manager and the level of compliance attained by the Funds. The Board noted that they had previously reviewed the annual best execution and soft dollar reports and included those findings in their consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the Funds under the Management Agreement were satisfactory.

93


 

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services provided under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of investment personnel responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. The Board also considered the Subadvisers’ compliance with investment policies and general legal compliance. In addition, the Board considered the analysis provided under the Manager’s due diligence program, which resulted in the Manager recommending that each Subadvisory Agreement be continued. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Subadvisers to the Funds under the Subadvisory Agreements are satisfactory.

Investment Performance

The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over longer-term periods, reviewing both the investment return during the three-year period ended May 31, 2015 and the blended investment return (50%/50%) of the three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015, and compared those returns to various agreed-upon performance measures, including peer-group data based upon a broad-based, industry category determined by Morningstar. For Funds or Subadvisers that did not have a three-year or five-year performance history, the Board reviewed performance for a one-year or three-year period, respectively, noting that certain Funds had commenced operations recently and, accordingly, no performance information was considered. The Board also considered whether investment results were consistent with a Fund’s investment objective(s) and policies. For most Funds, the Board concluded that the Fund’s investment returns met acceptable levels of investment performance. There were certain Funds, and certain Subadvisers for multi-manager Funds, that had not attained during the relevant period a level of investment performance considered satisfactory by the Board. For such Funds, the Board also considered other factors, such as the longer-term performance of each such Fund. The Board considered the Manager’s due diligence process for evaluating performance applied to all Funds and all Subadvisers, from which they received regular reporting, and, for unaffiliated Subadvisers, concluded that the Manager has in place an effective due diligence process to monitor investment performance, to encourage remedial action and to make changes in the Subadvisers at the appropriate time, if necessary.

Investment Management Fees

The Board considered each Fund’s management fee. The Board received information, based on data supplied by Lipper, comparing each Fund’s (1) contractual management fee at current asset levels and at theoretical asset levels, (2) actual (after any fee waivers) management fee at average fiscal-year asset levels, (3) actual non-management fees at average fiscal-year asset levels, and (4) actual total expense ratio (including, as applicable, acquired fund fees and expenses) at average fiscal-year asset levels for Class A shares, where available, to advisory fees and expense ratios of mutual funds in a peer group selected by Lipper, or for one Fund, a custom peer group recommended by the Manager and reviewed by the Board (“Expense Group”) and a broad-based, industry category defined by Lipper (“Expense Universe”). For Funds that did not offer Class A shares or if Class A shares represented less than 5% of the Fund’s total assets, the information provided was based upon Institutional Class shares.

In evaluating the management fees, the Board considered a variety of factors, including the amount of the fees, breakpoints, comparison to fees of peer group funds as well as other funds managed by the Manager, subadvisory fees paid, services provided, investment performance, total net expense ratios, profitability and expense caps and fee waivers. For most Funds, actual management fees were within the third quartile or better when compared to their Expense Group. For some Funds, although actual management fees were higher than the third quartile, total net expense ratios were within the third quartile or better.

For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board considered information from management about the Manager’s unique strategic and tactical asset allocation processes employed in the management of the Fund and determined that the strategy and processes justified management fees higher than those paid by the funds in the Fund’s Expense Group. For each of the SAM Portfolios, with the exception of the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, the Board concluded that the Fund met performance expectations. For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board concluded that the total expense ratio (including the expenses of the underlying funds), with the continuation of the expense caps suggested by management, was within an acceptable range.

The Board also considered that the Manager contractually agreed to continue to waive a portion of its management fee for nine (9) PFI Funds that have implemented the “Core Satellite” structure. The Board also considered the expense caps and fee waivers that would be in place with respect to certain classes of various Funds.

94


 

With specific regard to the MidCap Growth Fund III, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (85%, 92% and 77%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the Fund’s performance in the third quartile of its Morningstar peer group for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (68% and 69%, respectively) and the tight range of the total expense ratios within the Expense Group.

With specific regard to the Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (93%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the second quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 and that its total expense ratio is in the second quartile (33%) when compared to its Expense Universe.

With specific regard to the Bond Market Index Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (99%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the lower ranking in the Expense Group (i.e., unusual circumstances of certain funds in the Expense Group), the competitiveness of the Fund’s total expense ratio (69%) when compared to the Expense Universe and that although the ranking of the Fund’s performance in its Morningstar peer group was in the third quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (65% and 63%, respectively), the Fund’s performance relative to the target index met expectations for each of the three-year and blended three-and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund, although the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (78% and 78%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the first quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, although the Fund underperformed its Morningstar peer group ranking in the fourth quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (81% and 82%, respectively), the Board noted that the same unique processes were employed for all the SAM Portfolios, which over the range of portfolios over an extended period had provided superior results, and that any particular Fund may compare less well as to a particular group of peer funds at a point in time, in this particular case because of a higher weighting in foreign securities than the funds in the peer group. Based upon all relevant factors, including the Boards’ view that these processes provide value to Fund shareholders over the long term, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed.

Considering all factors they deemed relevant, the Board concluded that the management fee schedule for each Fund was reasonable and appropriate in light of the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager and other relevant factors.

Profitability

The Board reviewed detailed information regarding revenues the Manager receives under the Management Agreement, as well as the estimated direct and indirect costs the Manager incurs in providing to each Fund the services described in the applicable Advisory Agreements, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Board also considered the returns on revenue generated in connection with the payment of subadvisory fees to affiliated Subadvisers (Principal Global Investors, LLC, Principal Real Estate Investors LLC, Columbus Circle Investors, Edge Asset Management Inc., Origin Asset Management LLP, Post Advisory Group LLC and Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.), and the aggregated return on revenue to the Manager and its affiliates. The Board concluded that the management fee for each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the profitability information presented by the Manager.

95


 

Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the management of each Fund and whether the Funds benefit from any such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. The Board also noted the new breakpoints being offered by management for three Funds. The Board then reviewed the levels at which breakpoints occur and the amount of the reductions. The Board considered whether the effective management fee rate for each Fund under the applicable Management Agreement is reasonable in relation to the asset size of such Fund. The Board concluded that the fee schedule for each Fund reflects an appropriate level of sharing of any economies of scale.

The Board noted that the management fees for the LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, the MidCap S&P 400 Index Fund, the SmallCap S&P 600 Index Fund, the Principal LifeTime Funds, and the Principal LifeTime Hybrid Funds do not include breakpoints. Although their management fee schedules do not include breakpoints, the Board noted that each of these Funds has a relatively low basis point fee (25 basis points or less) on all Fund assets.

Subadvisory Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

For each Fund the Board considered the subadvisory fees, noting that the Manager compensates each Subadviser from its own management fee, so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board also received industry data supplied by Lipper. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services provided to each Fund and, if so, whether the subadvisory fees reflect such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. In addition, in evaluating the subadvisory fees and the factor of profitability, with respect to unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered that the subadvisory fee rate was negotiated at arm’s-length between the Manager and each Subadviser. The Board considered the profitability of the affiliated Subadvisers in conjunction with its review of the profitability of the Manager.

Other Benefits to the Manager and Subadvisers

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits received by the Manager and its affiliates and each Subadviser from their relationships with the Funds. The Board also considered as a part of this analysis each Subadvisor’s soft dollar practices and brokerage practices. The Board concluded that management and subadvisory fees for each Fund were reasonable in light of these benefits.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information it considered and the conclusions it reached, the Board determined unanimously that the terms of each Advisory Agreement continue to be fair and reasonable and that the continuation of each Advisory Agreement, with the actions proposed by the Manager, is in the best interests of each Fund.

Logan Circle Subadvisory Agreement

On June 9, 2015, the Board considered for the Global Diversified Income Fund (the “Fund”) the approval of a subadvisory agreement (the “Subadvisory Agreement”) between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and Logan Circle Partners, L.P. (the “Subadviser”) with respect to a portion of the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund.

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services expected to be provided under the Subadvisory Agreement.

The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of the Subadviser’s investment personnel who would be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. In addition, the Board considered the Manager’s program for recommending, monitoring and replacing subadvisers and that the Manager recommended the Subadviser based upon that program.

96


 

The Board reviewed the historical one-year, three-year, five-year and since-inception (November 30, 2006) performance returns as of March 31, 2015 of the Subadviser in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the proposed strategy for the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the historical performance returns of the current subadviser to the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (which will remain a subadviser to a portion of such sleeve) in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the strategy for the investment sleeve of the Fund (one-year, three-year and since inception (March 30, 2012) only) (gross and net of fees) and a relevant benchmark index, and the annual performance of the Subadviser in the same composite for each of the last five calendar years (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the other subadviser’s composite (2013 and 2014 only) (gross and net of fees) and the relevant benchmark index. The Board also reviewed the percentile rankings of the historical performance of the Subadviser’s composite (net of proposed fees) and the other subadviser’s composite (net of fees) in a relevant Morningstar category for each of the periods and years referenced above. The Board concluded, based on the information provided, that the historical investment performance record of the Subadviser was satisfactory.

Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

The Board considered the proposed subadvisory fee, noting that the Manager compensates subadvisers from its own management fee so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services to be provided to the Fund under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Board noted that the proposed subadvisory fee schedule includes breakpoints and concluded that the subadvisory fee schedule reflects an appropriate recognition of economies of scale at currently anticipated asset levels. The Board considered the Subadviser’s representation that it does not offer other clients a lower fee for the specific mandate it will be managing for the Fund and the Manager’s statement that it found the proposed subadvisory fee schedule to be fair and competitive. On the basis of the information provided, the Board concluded that the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Other Benefits

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits to be received by the Subadviser. The Board noted that the Subadviser does not engage in soft dollar trading. The Board concluded that, on the basis of the information provided, the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board determined that the terms of the Subadvisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Subadvisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund.

GLOBAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT • ASSET ALLOCATION EXPERTISE • RETIREMENT LEADERSHIP

Mike Beer
President, Principal Funds

Dear Shareholder,

At the October Federal Open Market Committee meeting, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) voted to keep the benchmark interest rate at its current level, but announced that they are preparing for a possible increase in December based on the near balance of their dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability. October data suggests that the U.S. economy is growing and on stable footing. Indications are that recession risk is down, consumer balance sheets are the best in years, the job market remains robust, and the housing market continues to recover.

Globally, concerns about China remain and European growth continues to be slow. However, at the end of October, the European Central Bank reiterated that they would do whatever it takes to support the ongoing recovery in Europe, not only keeping interest rates unchanged, but potentially expanding the current program of quantitative easing.

Because markets tend to fluctuate, we believe the most prudent approach for investing is to select a portfolio allocation that is broadly diversified both across and within asset classes.1 We encourage you to work closely with your financial professional to select and monitor those investments best suited to helping you work toward and realize your financial goals.

Our focus at Principal Funds has always been on consistent, long-term performance for our investors. Our investment strategies cover a wide range of asset classes to help you diversify your portfolio as you save for the future—whether you are investing for goals that are years down the road, or closer at hand.

We strive to maintain a diverse investment lineup that helps meet client and investor needs. To address market interest in active exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and actively managed, multi-asset class strategies, we recently added an additional income-focused portfolio available as an ETF. Additional information on this strategy is available at https://www.principaletfs.com.

At Principal Funds, we're honored to be part of your investment strategy. On behalf of everyone at Principal Funds, I thank you for your business.


1 Asset allocation and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against a loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

What contributed to or detracted from Fund performance during the fiscal year?

Principal Money Market Fund performed in line with the peer group. The portfolio continues to have a core holding of variable rate demand notes (VRDN's*) that meet the need for seven day liquidity at a higher yield than other options. The shorter weighted average days to maturity for both the peer group and the portfolio during the latter half of the year detracted.

* Variable rate demand notes are debt instruments representing borrowed funds that are payable on demand and accrue interest based on a prevailing money market rate.

Investment results shown represent historical performance and do not guarantee future results. Your investment’s returns and principal values will fluctuate with changes in interest rates and other market conditions so the value, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original costs. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance shown. For more information, including the most recent month-end performance, visit principalfunds.com, call your financial professional, or call 800-222-5852.

A contingent deferred sales charge may apply as follows: Class J shares: 1% on redemptions made during the first 18 months. See the prospectus for details. Performance listed with sales charge reflects the maximum sales charge.

An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

Where gross and net expenses differ, Principal Management Corporation has contractually agreed to limit the investment option’s expenses. Expense limits apply through 02/29/16 for Class J. Returns displayed are based on net total investment expense.

The 7-day simple yield more closely reflects current fund earnings than the total return data.          
 
Average Annual Total Returns* as of October 31, 2015              
      1-Year   5-Year   10-Year  
Class J Shares Excluding Sales Charge   0.00 % 0.00 % 1.11 %
  Including Sales Charge   -1.00 % 0.00 % 1.11 %
 
 
Total Investment Expense** as shown in the 3/1/15 prospectus              
  Gross Expense Ratio       Net Expense Ratio      
Class J Shares 0.82 %     0.81 %    
 
 
Yields*** as of October 31, 2015                
  7-Day Simple Yield       7-Day Effective Yield  
Class J Shares 0.00 %     0.00 %    
 
Yields** as of 9/30/15:                
Class J Shares: 0.00% (7-day simple yield); 0.00% (7-day effective yield)              

 

* Performance assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. Performance does not reflect the impact of federal, state, or municipal taxes. If it did, performance would be lower.

** Principal has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a 0% yield. The voluntary expense limit may be terminated at any time.

*** The 7-day simple yield is calculated based on the income generated by an investment in the fund over a 7-day period and is expressed as an annual percentage rate. The 7-day effective yield is calculated similarly to the 7-day simple yield but assumes that income earned from the fund’s investment is reinvested and compounded.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PRINCIPAL FUNDS,INC.
October 31, 2015

1. Organization

Principal Funds, Inc. is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company and operates in the mutual fund industry. The financial statements for Money Market Fund are presented herein. Money Market Fund offers four classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class J and Institutional. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to Class J shares. Certain detailed information for the other classes of shares is provided separately.

Money Market Fund is an investment company and applies specialized accounting and reporting under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. Money Market Fund was an investment company at all times during the period. Money Market Fund has not provided financial support, and is not contractually required to provide financial support to any investee.

Effective February 23, 2015, Class B shares discontinued operations and converted to Class A shares.

All classes of shares represent interests in the same portfolio of investments, and will vote together as a single class except where otherwise required by law or as determined by the Board of Directors of Principal Funds, Inc. In addition, the Board of Directors declares separate dividends on each class of shares.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:

Security Valuation. The Fund values its securities, other than holdings of other publicly traded investment funds, at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Other publicly traded investment funds are valued at the funds’ net asset value. Under the amortized cost method, a security is valued by applying a constant yield to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at maturity and the cost of the security to the Fund.

Income and Investment Transactions. The Fund records investment transactions on a trade date basis. The identified cost basis has been used in determining the net realized gain or loss from investment transactions. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The Fund allocates daily all income and realized gains or losses to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the number of settled shares outstanding of each class.

The Fund’s investments are with various issuers in various industries. The schedule of investments contained herein summarizes concentration of credit risk by issuer and industry.

Expenses. Expenses directly attributed to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Other Fund expenses not directly attributed to a Fund are apportioned among the Funds managed by Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”).

The Fund allocates daily all expenses (other than class-specific expenses) to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of the number of settled shares outstanding of each class. Class-specific expenses charged to each class during the year ended October 31, 2015, are included separately in the statement of operations.

Distributions to Shareholders. The Fund declares all net investment income and any net realized gains from investment transactions as dividends daily to settled shares of record as of that day. Dividends from net investment income and net realized gain from investments are determined in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Federal Income Taxes. No provision for federal income taxes is considered necessary because the Fund is qualified as a “regulated investment company” under the Internal Revenue Code and intends to distribute each year substantially all of its net investment income and realized capital gains to shareholders.

The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that each tax position would be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. During the year ended October 31, 2015, the Fund did not record any such tax benefit or expense in the accompanying financial statements. The statute of limitations remains open for the fiscal years from 2012-2015. No examinations are in progress or anticipated at this time.

3. Operating Policies

Borrowings. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds and other registered investment companies managed by the Manager may participate in an interfund lending facility (“Facility”). The Facility allows the Funds to borrow money from or loan money to the other participants. Loans under the Facility are made to handle unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest paid and received on borrowings is the average of the current repurchase agreement rate and the bank loan rate (the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate or (ii) the One Month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%). During the year ended October 31, 2015, Money Market Fund did not borrow from or loan to the Facility.

In addition, Money Market Fund participates with other registered investment companies managed by the Manager in an unsecured joint line of credit with a bank which allows the participants to borrow up to $75 million, collectively. Borrowings are made solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to each participant, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate or the One Month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Additionally, a commitment fee is charged at an annual rate of .10% on the amount of the line of credit. Money Market Fund did not borrow against the line of credit during the year ended October 31, 2015.

Indemnification. Under the Fund’s by-laws present and past officers, directors and employees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties. In addition, in the normal course of business the Fund may enter into a variety of contracts that may contain representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund.

Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements that are fully collateralized, typically by U.S. government or U.S. government agency securities. It is the Fund’s policy that its custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities. The fair value of the collateral is at all times at least equal to the total amount of the repurchase obligation. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event the seller of a repurchase agreement defaults, the Fund could experience delays in the realization of the collateral.

4. Fair Valuation

Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling a security in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the security at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Fund uses various valuation approaches, including market, income and/or cost approaches. A hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Fund’s own estimates about the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical securities as of the reporting date. The type of securities included in Level 1 includes listed equities and listed derivatives.

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.) Investments which are generally included in this category include corporate bonds, senior floating rate interests, and municipal bonds.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.) Investments which are generally included in this category include certain corporate bonds and certain mortgage backed securities.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the market place, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Fund in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value is a market based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant who holds the asset rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Fund’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those instruments. For example, short-term securities held in Money Market Fund are valued using amortized cost, as permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of these securities, but because the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The beginning of the period timing recognition is being adopted for transfers between levels of each Fund’s assets and liabilities. As of October 31, 2015, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2.

As of October 31, 2015, all of the Fund’s investments were valued based on Level 2 inputs, with the exception of publicly traded investment funds, which are based on Level 1 inputs.

5. Management Agreement and Transactions with Affiliates

Management Services. The Fund has agreed to pay investment advisory and management fees to Principal Management Corporation (wholly owned by Principal Financial Services, Inc.) computed at an annual percentage rate of the Fund’s average daily net assets. A portion of the management fee is paid by Principal Management Corporation to the sub-advisor of the Fund, which is an affiliate of the Manager. The annual rates used in this calculation for the Fund are as follows:

Net Assets of Fund

First $500   Next $500   Next $500   Next $500   Next $1   Over $3  
million   million   million   million   billion   billion  
.40% .39% .38% .37% .36% .35%

 

Class A, Class C, and Institutional shares of Money Market Fund reimburse Principal Shareholder Services, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) (wholly owned by the Manager) for transfer agent services. Class J shares pays Principal Shareholder Services, Inc. a fee for the services provided in an amount that includes a profit.

The Manager has contractually agreed to limit the Fund’s expenses on certain share classes of the Fund. The reductions and reimbursements are in amounts that maintain total operating expenses at or below certain limits. The limits are expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets attributable to each respective class on an annualized basis. The operating expense limit for Class C shares is 1.79%. The expense limit will expire on February 29, 2016.

The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s expenses for all classes of shares to the extent necessary to maintain a 0% yield. The voluntary expense limit may be terminated at any time.

Amounts owed to Money Market Fund under the terms of the expense limitation agreements are reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as expense reimbursement from Manager.

Distribution Fees. Class C and Class J shares of the Fund bear distribution fees. The fee is computed at an annual rate of the average daily net assets attributable to each class of the Fund. Distribution fees are paid to Principal Funds Distributor, Inc. (“the Distributor), the principal distributor of the Fund, a portion of the distribution fees may be paid to other selling dealers for providing certain services. The annual rates are 1.00% and .25% for Class C and Class J shares, respectively.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s distribution fees attributable to certain share classes of the Fund. The limit will maintain the level of distribution fees (expressed as a percent of average net assets on an annualized basis) not to exceed 0% for Class C and Class J shares. The voluntary expense limit may be terminated at any time.

Amounts owed to Money Market Fund under the terms of the expense limitation agreements are reflected in the statement of assets and liabilities as expense reimbursement from Distributor.

Sales Charges. Principal Funds Distributor, Inc., as the principal distributor, receives proceeds of any CDSC on certain Class A, Class C, and Class J share redemptions. The charge for Class A shares is 1.00% of the lesser of current market value or the cost of shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase that were sold originally without a sales charge. The charge for Class C shares is 1.00% of the lesser of current market value or the cost of shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. The charge for Class J shares is 1.00% of the lesser of current market value or the cost of shares redeemed within 18 months of purchase. The aggregate amounts of these charges retained by Principal Funds Distributor, Inc. for the year ended October 31, 2015, were $9,000, $4,000 and $94,000 for Class A, Class C, and Class J shares, respectively.

Affiliated Ownership. At October 31, 2015, Principal Life Insurance Company (an affiliate of the Manager), the Manager, Principal Funds Distributor, Inc., Princor Financial Services Corporation, Collective Investment Trusts sponsored by Principal Trust Company, benefit plans and separate accounts sponsored on behalf of Principal Life Insurance Company, and other affiliated entities owned 190,000 and 4,846,000 shares of Class A and Institutional shares, respectively.

6. Capital Share Transactions

The following table reflects the conversion of Class B shares into Class A shares (reflected in the statement of changes in net assets as Class B shares and dollars redeemed and Class A dollars sold) for the year ended October 31, 2015 (amounts in thousands).

7. Federal Tax Information      

 

Distributions to Shareholders. Money Market Fund did not make any distributions for the years ended October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014.

Capital Loss Carryforward. Capital loss carryforwards are losses that can be used to offset future capital gains although it is unlikely the Fund will recognize future capital gains. As of October 31, 2015 the Fund had approximate net capital loss carryforwards as follows (amounts in thousands):

Net Capital Loss Carryforward Expiring In:      
            Annual
    2016   2017                        Total                         Limitations*
Money Market Fund $ 35,477 $ 2,969 $38,446 $ 5,612

 

*In accordance with Sections 381-384 of the Internal Revenue Code, a portion of Money Market Fund’s losses have been subjected to an annual limitation.

Capital losses generated in taxable years beginning after the enactment date of the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, December 22, 2010, will be carried forward with no expiration and with the character of the loss retained. These capital losses must be fully utilized before the pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards listed in the table above.

As of October 31, 2015, Money Market Fund had expired capital loss carryforwards of $2,794,000.

Late-Year Losses. A regulated investment company may elect to treat any portion of its qualified late-year loss as arising on the first day of the next taxable year. Qualified late-year losses are certain capital and ordinary losses which occur during the portion of the Fund’s taxable year subsequent to October 31 and December 31, respectively. For the taxable year ended October 31, 2015, Money Market Fund does not intend to defer any late-year losses.

Reclassification of Capital Accounts. Money Market Fund may record reclassifications in its capital accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the total net assets of the fund. The reclassifications are a result of permanent differences between GAAP and tax accounting. Adjustments are made to reflect the impact these items have on current and future distributions to shareholders. Therefore, the source of the funds’ distributions may be shown in the accompanying Statement of Changes in Net Assets as from net investment income, from net realized gains on investments or from capital depending on the type of book and tax differences that exist. For the year ended October 31, 2015 Money Market Fund recorded reclassifications as follows (amounts in thousands):

    Accumulated      
    Net Realized Gain      
    on Investments   Paid in Capital  
Money Market Fund $2,773 $ (2,773 )

 

8. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued that would merit recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. There were no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Principal Funds, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Money Market Fund, (one of the portfolios constituting Principal Funds, Inc., (the “Fund”)), as of October 31, 2015, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agents. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Money Market Fund of Principal Funds, Inc., at October 31, 2015, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLE
PRINCIPAL FUNDS,INC.
October 31, 2015 (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Money Market Fund of Principal Funds, Inc., you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs (for Class J shares only), including contingent deferred sales charges; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution fees; and other fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Principal Funds, Inc. and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2015 to October 31, 2015), unless otherwise noted.

Actual Expenses

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. An annual fee of $15.00 or $30.00 may apply to IRA and 403(b) accounts, respectively. These fees are not included in the table below. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the fund’s actual expense ratio for each share class and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in Principal Funds, Inc. and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges on purchase payments, contingent deferred sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(a) Expenses are equal to a fund's annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

BOARD CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY CONTRACTS

During the period covered by this report, the Board of Directors of Principal Funds, Inc. (“PFI”) approved (1) the annual review and renewal of the Management Agreement and various subadvisory agreements for all Funds; and (2) a Subadvisory Agreement with Logan Circle Partners L.P. related to the Global Diversified Income Fund.

Annual Review and Renewal of Management Agreement and Subadvisory Agreements

At its September 16, 2015 meeting, the Board performed its annual review and renewal process relating to the Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements for all Funds.

Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires the Board, including a majority of the Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory agreements and who are not “interested persons” of PFI, as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), annually to review and to consider the continuation of: (1) the Management Agreement between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and PFI, on behalf of each of the seventy-nine (79) series of PFI (each series is referred to as a “Fund”) (2) the Subadvisory Agreements between the Manager and each of AllianceBernstein L.P.; American Century Investment Management, Inc.; Barrow Hanley Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC; BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.; Brown Advisory, LLC; Causeway Capital Management LLC.; Clearbridge Investments, LLC; Colonial First State Asset Management (Australia) Limited; Columbus Circle Investors; DDJ Capital Management, LLC; Dimensional Fund Advisors LP; Edge Asset Management, Inc.; Emerald Advisers, Inc.; Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P.; Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC; J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; Los Angeles Capital Management and Equity Research, Inc.; Neuberger Berman Fixed Income LLC; Origin Asset Management, LLP, Post Advisory Group, LLC; Principal Global Investors, LLC; Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC; Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated; Sawgrass Asset Management, LLC, Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.; Stone Harbor Investment Partners LP; T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.; Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C.; Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, LP; W. H. Reaves & Co., Inc.; Westwood Management Corp.; and William Blair & Company, L.L.C.; (collectively, the “Subadvisers”). The Management Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements are collectively referred to as the “Advisory Agreements.”

The Board, including the Independent Directors, considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the continuation of the Advisory Agreements. In evaluating the Advisory Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Directors, reviewed a broad range of information requested for this purpose by the Independent Directors, including, among other information, information regarding performance, advisory fees, total expenses, profitability from the Advisory Agreements to the Manager and information about economies of scale. The Board reviewed the materials provided and concluded that it was provided all information reasonably necessary to evaluate the Advisory Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of the services provided under the Management Agreements, including administrative services. The Board considered the experience and skills of senior management leading Fund operations, the experience and skills of the personnel performing the functions under the Management Agreement and the resources made available to such personnel, the ability of the Manager to attract and retain high-quality personnel and the organizational depth and stability of the Manager. The Board concluded that appropriate resources were provided under the Management Agreement. The Board also considered that, during the periods reviewed, other than for the “Core” portions of the Funds implementing the “Core Satellite” structure and the LifeTime Hybrid Funds, the Manager had delegated day-to-day portfolio management responsibility to the Subadvisers. The Board noted that the Manager’s process emphasizes the selection of Principal-affiliated subadvisers that are determined to be qualified under the Manager’s due diligence process, but that the Manager will select an unaffiliated subadviser to manage all of a portion of a Fund’s portfolio when deemed necessary or appropriate based on a consideration of the Fund’s investment mandate and available expertise and resources within the Principal organization. With respect to Funds with unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered the due diligence process developed by the Manager for purposes of selecting a highly qualified unaffiliated subadviser for a Fund and for monitoring and replacing unaffiliated Subadvisers. The Board concluded that this due diligence process was working well. The Board also considered the compliance program established by the Manager and the level of compliance attained by the Funds. The Board noted that they had previously reviewed the annual best execution and soft dollar reports and included those findings in their consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager to the Funds under the Management Agreement were satisfactory.

24


 

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services provided under each Subadvisory Agreement. The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of investment personnel responsible for the day-to-day management of each Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. The Board also considered the Subadvisers’ compliance with investment policies and general legal compliance. In addition, the Board considered the analysis provided under the Manager’s due diligence program, which resulted in the Manager recommending that each Subadvisory Agreement be continued. Based upon all relevant factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Subadvisers to the Funds under the Subadvisory Agreements are satisfactory.

Investment Performance

The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over longer-term periods, reviewing both the investment return during the three-year period ended May 31, 2015 and the blended investment return (50%/50%) of the three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015, and compared those returns to various agreed-upon performance measures, including peer-group data based upon a broad-based, industry category determined by Morningstar. For Funds or Subadvisers that did not have a three-year or five-year performance history, the Board reviewed performance for a one-year or three-year period, respectively, noting that certain Funds had commenced operations recently and, accordingly, no performance information was considered. The Board also considered whether investment results were consistent with a Fund’s investment objective(s) and policies. For most Funds, the Board concluded that the Fund’s investment returns met acceptable levels of investment performance. There were certain Funds, and certain Subadvisers for multi-manager Funds, that had not attained during the relevant period a level of investment performance considered satisfactory by the Board. For such Funds, the Board also considered other factors, such as the longer-term performance of each such Fund. The Board considered the Manager’s due diligence process for evaluating performance applied to all Funds and all Subadvisers, from which they received regular reporting, and, for unaffiliated Subadvisers, concluded that the Manager has in place an effective due diligence process to monitor investment performance, to encourage remedial action and to make changes in the Subadvisers at the appropriate time, if necessary.

Investment Management Fees

The Board considered each Fund’s management fee. The Board received information, based on data supplied by Lipper, comparing each Fund’s (1) contractual management fee at current asset levels and at theoretical asset levels, (2) actual (after any fee waivers) management fee at average fiscal-year asset levels, (3) actual non-management fees at average fiscal-year asset levels, and (4) actual total expense ratio (including, as applicable, acquired fund fees and expenses) at average fiscal-year asset levels for Class A shares, where available, to advisory fees and expense ratios of mutual funds in a peer group selected by Lipper, or for one Fund, a custom peer group recommended by the Manager and reviewed by the Board (“Expense Group”) and a broad-based, industry category defined by Lipper (“Expense Universe”). For Funds that did not offer Class A shares or if Class A shares represented less than 5% of the Fund’s total assets, the information provided was based upon Institutional Class shares.

In evaluating the management fees, the Board considered a variety of factors, including the amount of the fees, breakpoints, comparison to fees of peer group funds as well as other funds managed by the Manager, subadvisory fees paid, services provided, investment performance, total net expense ratios, profitability and expense caps and fee waivers. For most Funds, actual management fees were within the third quartile or better when compared to their Expense Group. For some Funds, although actual management fees were higher than the third quartile, total net expense ratios were within the third quartile or better.

For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board considered information from management about the Manager’s unique strategic and tactical asset allocation processes employed in the management of the Fund and determined that the strategy and processes justified management fees higher than those paid by the funds in the Fund’s Expense Group. For each of the SAM Portfolios, with the exception of the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, the Board concluded that the Fund met performance expectations. For each of the SAM Portfolios, the Board concluded that the total expense ratio (including the expenses of the underlying funds), with the continuation of the expense caps suggested by management, was within an acceptable range.

The Board also considered that the Manager contractually agreed to continue to waive a portion of its management fee for nine (9) PFI Funds that have implemented the “Core Satellite” structure. The Board also considered the expense caps and fee waivers that would be in place with respect to certain classes of various Funds.

25


 

With specific regard to the MidCap Growth Fund III, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (85%, 92% and 77%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the Fund’s performance in the third quartile of its Morningstar peer group for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (68% and 69%, respectively) and the tight range of the total expense ratios within the Expense Group.

With specific regard to the Bond & Mortgage Securities Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (93%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the second quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 and that its total expense ratio is in the second quartile (33%) when compared to its Expense Universe.

With specific regard to the Bond Market Index Fund, although the contractual management fee, the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (99%, 99% and 80%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including the explanation provided by the Manager for the lower ranking in the Expense Group (i.e., unusual circumstances of certain funds in the Expense Group), the competitiveness of the Fund’s total expense ratio (69%) when compared to the Expense Universe and that although the ranking of the Fund’s performance in its Morningstar peer group was in the third quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (65% and 63%, respectively), the Fund’s performance relative to the target index met expectations for each of the three-year and blended three-and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the Principal LifeTime Strategic Income Fund, although the actual management fee and the total net expense ratio on the basis of Institutional Class shares are higher than third quartile (78% and 78%, respectively) for the Expense Group, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed, based upon all relevant factors, including that the Fund’s performance is in the first quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015.

With specific regard to the SAM Strategic Growth Portfolio, although the Fund underperformed its Morningstar peer group ranking in the fourth quartile for each of the three-year and blended three- and five-year periods ended May 31, 2015 (81% and 82%, respectively), the Board noted that the same unique processes were employed for all the SAM Portfolios, which over the range of portfolios over an extended period had provided superior results, and that any particular Fund may compare less well as to a particular group of peer funds at a point in time, in this particular case because of a higher weighting in foreign securities than the funds in the peer group. Based upon all relevant factors, including the Boards’ view that these processes provide value to Fund shareholders over the long term, the Board concluded that the Management Agreement should be renewed.

Considering all factors they deemed relevant, the Board concluded that the management fee schedule for each Fund was reasonable and appropriate in light of the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by the Manager and other relevant factors.

Profitability

The Board reviewed detailed information regarding revenues the Manager receives under the Management Agreement, as well as the estimated direct and indirect costs the Manager incurs in providing to each Fund the services described in the applicable Advisory Agreements, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Board also considered the returns on revenue generated in connection with the payment of subadvisory fees to affiliated Subadvisers (Principal Global Investors, LLC, Principal Real Estate Investors LLC, Columbus Circle Investors, Edge Asset Management Inc., Origin Asset Management LLP, Post Advisory Group LLC and Spectrum Asset Management, Inc.), and the aggregated return on revenue to the Manager and its affiliates. The Board concluded that the management fee for each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the profitability information presented by the Manager.

26


 

Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the management of each Fund and whether the Funds benefit from any such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. The Board also noted the new breakpoints being offered by management for three Funds. The Board then reviewed the levels at which breakpoints occur and the amount of the reductions. The Board considered whether the effective management fee rate for each Fund under the applicable Management Agreement is reasonable in relation to the asset size of such Fund. The Board concluded that the fee schedule for each Fund reflects an appropriate level of sharing of any economies of scale.

The Board noted that the management fees for the LargeCap S&P 500 Index Fund, the MidCap S&P 400 Index Fund, the SmallCap S&P 600 Index Fund, the Principal LifeTime Funds, and the Principal LifeTime Hybrid Funds do not include breakpoints. Although their management fee schedules do not include breakpoints, the Board noted that each of these Funds has a relatively low basis point fee (25 basis points or less) on all Fund assets.

Subadvisory Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

For each Fund the Board considered the subadvisory fees, noting that the Manager compensates each Subadviser from its own management fee, so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board also received industry data supplied by Lipper. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services provided to each Fund and, if so, whether the subadvisory fees reflect such economies of scale through breakpoints in fees. In addition, in evaluating the subadvisory fees and the factor of profitability, with respect to unaffiliated Subadvisers, the Board considered that the subadvisory fee rate was negotiated at arm’s-length between the Manager and each Subadviser. The Board considered the profitability of the affiliated Subadvisers in conjunction with its review of the profitability of the Manager.

Other Benefits to the Manager and Subadvisers

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits received by the Manager and its affiliates and each Subadviser from their relationships with the Funds. The Board also considered as a part of this analysis each Subadvisor’s soft dollar practices and brokerage practices. The Board concluded that management and subadvisory fees for each Fund were reasonable in light of these benefits.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information it considered and the conclusions it reached, the Board determined unanimously that the terms of each Advisory Agreement continue to be fair and reasonable and that the continuation of each Advisory Agreement, with the actions proposed by the Manager, is in the best interests of each Fund.

Logan Circle Subadvisory Agreement

On June 9, 2015, the Board considered for the Global Diversified Income Fund (the “Fund”) the approval of a subadvisory agreement (the “Subadvisory Agreement”) between Principal Management Corporation (the “Manager”) and Logan Circle Partners, L.P. (the “Subadviser”) with respect to a portion of the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund.

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

The Board considered the nature, quality and extent of services expected to be provided under the Subadvisory Agreement.

The Board considered the reputation, qualifications and background of the Subadviser, investment approach of the Subadviser, the experience and skills of the Subadviser’s investment personnel who would be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund, and the resources made available to such personnel. In addition, the Board considered the Manager’s program for recommending, monitoring and replacing subadvisers and that the Manager recommended the Subadviser based upon that program.

27


 

The Board reviewed the historical one-year, three-year, five-year and since-inception (November 30, 2006) performance returns as of March 31, 2015 of the Subadviser in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the proposed strategy for the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the historical performance returns of the current subadviser to the emerging markets debt investment sleeve of the Fund (which will remain a subadviser to a portion of such sleeve) in a composite with an investment strategy similar to the strategy for the investment sleeve of the Fund (one-year, three-year and since inception (March 30, 2012) only) (gross and net of fees) and a relevant benchmark index, and the annual performance of the Subadviser in the same composite for each of the last five calendar years (gross and net of proposed fees), as compared to the other subadviser’s composite (2013 and 2014 only) (gross and net of fees) and the relevant benchmark index. The Board also reviewed the percentile rankings of the historical performance of the Subadviser’s composite (net of proposed fees) and the other subadviser’s composite (net of fees) in a relevant Morningstar category for each of the periods and years referenced above. The Board concluded, based on the information provided, that the historical investment performance record of the Subadviser was satisfactory.

Fees, Economies of Scale and Profitability

The Board considered the proposed subadvisory fee, noting that the Manager compensates subadvisers from its own management fee so that shareholders pay only the management fee. The Board considered whether there are economies of scale with respect to the subadvisory services to be provided to the Fund under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Board noted that the proposed subadvisory fee schedule includes breakpoints and concluded that the subadvisory fee schedule reflects an appropriate recognition of economies of scale at currently anticipated asset levels. The Board considered the Subadviser’s representation that it does not offer other clients a lower fee for the specific mandate it will be managing for the Fund and the Manager’s statement that it found the proposed subadvisory fee schedule to be fair and competitive. On the basis of the information provided, the Board concluded that the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Other Benefits

The Board also considered the character and amount of other incidental benefits to be received by the Subadviser. The Board noted that the Subadviser does not engage in soft dollar trading. The Board concluded that, on the basis of the information provided, the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable.

Overall Conclusions

Based upon all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board determined that the terms of the Subadvisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Subadvisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund.

(e) (1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy. The audit committee of the registrant has adopted the following pre-approval policy:

Policy on Auditor Independence

The purpose of this policy is to ensure the independence of the Principal Funds' primary independent auditor. This policy is established by the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of the Boards of Directors of Principal Funds, Inc. and Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc. and the Board of Trustees of Principal Exchange-Traded Funds (the “Funds”) (the “Boards of the Funds”) effective for all engagements of the primary independent auditor.

1. The primary independent auditor, its subsidiaries and affiliates shall not provide Prohibited Services to the Funds. For the purposes of this policy, Prohibited Services are:

  • Services that are subject to audit procedure during a financial statement audit;
  • Services where the auditor would act on behalf of management;
  • Services where the auditor is an advocate to the client's position in an adversarial proceeding;
  • Bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Funds, its subsidiaries and affiliates;
  • Financial information systems design and implementation;
  • Appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions, or contribution-in-kind reports;
  • Actuarial services;
  • Internal audit functions or human resources;
  • Broker or dealer, investment advisor, or investment banking services;
  • Legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit;
  • Tax planning services related to listed, confidential and aggressive transactions;
  • Personal tax planning services to individuals in a financial reporting oversight role with regard to the Funds (other than members of the Boards of the Fundswho are not also officers of the Funds), including the immediate family members of such individuals;
  • Any other service that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) determines, by regulation, is impermissible.

2. (A) All services the primary independent auditor, its subsidiaries and affiliates provide to the Funds, and (B) Audit services, including audits of annual financial statements, audits of acquired or divested businesses or review of regulatory filings, any independent auditor provides, shall be approved by the Committee in advance in accordance with the following procedure:

Each quarter, Management will present to the Committee for pre-approval, a detailed description of each particular service, excluding tax services, for which pre-approval is sought and a range of fees for such service. The Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members provided such delegated member(s) shall present a report of any services approved to the full Committee at its next regularly


 

scheduled meeting. The Committee Chairperson shall have pre-approval authority for changes to any range of fees applicable to services the Committee previously approved and for new services and the range of fees for such services that arise between regularly scheduled Committee meetings.

Similarly, the primary independent auditor will present to the Committee for pre-approval a written description of the nature and scope of all tax services not expressly prohibited, including the fee arrangements for such services, and the potential effects of such services on the audit firm’s independence.

In considering whether to pre-approve the primary independent auditor’s provision of non-audit services, the Committee will consider whether the services are compatible with the maintenance of such auditor's independence. The Committee will also consider whether the primary independent auditor is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service, for reasons such as its familiarity with the Funds' business, people, culture, accounting systems, risk profile and other factors, and whether the service might enhance the Funds' ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality.

3. The provisions of this policy shall apply to all audit and non-audit services provided directly to the Funds. Additionally, the provisions of this policy shall apply to non-audit services provided to Principal Management Corporation or an affiliate of Principal Management Corporation that provides ongoing services to the Funds if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds.

4. Not less than annually, the primary independent auditor shall report to the Committee in writing all relationships that may reasonably be thought to bear on independence between the auditor and the Funds or persons in financial reporting oversight roles with respect to any services provided by the auditor, its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the date of the communication, pursuant to Rule 3526 of the PCAOB. The primary independent auditor shall discuss with the Committee the potential effects of such relationships on the independence of the auditor. In addition, the primary independent auditor shall affirm, in writing, that, as of the date of the communication, it is independent within the meaning of the federal securities laws and Rule 3520 of the PCAOB.

5. The Committee shall ensure that the lead and concurring partners of the Funds' primary independent auditor are rotated at least every five years and subject upon rotation to a five year "time out" period. All other partners of the primary independent auditor, excluding partners who simply consult with others on the audit engagement regarding technical issues, shall rotate after seven years and be subject upon rotation to a two year "time out" period.

6. Neither the Funds nor Principal Management Corporation may hire or promote any former partner, principal, shareholder or professional employee (Former Employee) of the primary independent auditor into a financial reporting oversight role unless the Former Employee (1) has severed his/her economic interest in the independent audit firm, and (2) was not a member of the audit engagement team for the Funds during the one year period preceding the date that the audit procedures began for the fiscal period in which the Funds or Principal Management Corporation proposes to hire or promote the Former Employee. Neither the Funds nor Principal Management Corporation shall, without prior written consent of the primary independent auditor, hire or promote any Former Employee into a role not prohibited above if the Former Employee had provided any services to the Funds or Principal Management Corporation during the 12 months preceding the date of filing of the Funds' most recent annual report with the SEC. Upon termination of the primary independent auditor, the Funds or Principal Management


 

  Corporation shall not, without prior written consent of the former primary independent auditor, hire or promote any Former Employee for a period of up to 12 months from termination.
7.      For persons recently promoted or hired into a financial reporting oversight role (other than members of the Boards of the Funds who are not also officers of the Funds), any personal tax planning services pursuant to an engagement that was in progress before the hiring or promotion and provided by the primary independent auditor must be completed on or before 180 days after the hiring or promotion.
8.      The phrase "financial reporting oversight role" means a role in which a person is in a position to exercise influence over the contents of the financial statements or anyone who prepares them, such as a member of the board of directors or similar management or governing body, chief executive officer, president, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, counsel, controller, chief internal auditor, or any equivalent positions.

(Adopted by the Audit Committee of the Board of the Fund on March 10, 2015).

(End of policy)

(e) (2) Pre-Approval Waivers. There were no services provided to the registrant by Ernst & Young that were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) Substantially all work in connection with the audit of the registrant’s financial statements was performed by full-time employees of Ernst & Young.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees Ernst & Young billed to the registrant, the registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of registrant's last two fiscal years were as follows.

October 31, 2014 - $277,380
October 31, 2015 - $314,189

(h) The registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
