Actual against the consensus estimate at the time. A flag marks a beat or a miss of more than 1.5% either way; inside that band the quarter is in line. A flag reads n/a only when a number is missing. Quarterly EPS is the figure set against the consensus, usually adjusted, so the quarters need not add up to the 12-month net income per share above. An estimate is a forecast made by analysts, not a company target.

One row is one filing, newest filing first. A filing that reported its trade in several tranches is summed, priced at the weighted average, and marked with its line count. The delay counts business days from the trade to the filing, the unit of Form 4's two business day deadline: weekends and federal holidays are skipped. How the filing itself works is explained in our guide to Form 4.

Estimated prices are the stock's closing price on the trade date. A disclosure gives a value band, not the price paid. Not investment advice. After a sale a positive figure means the stock kept rising after it. On an option line the prices are the stock's, never the option's: the premium is never disclosed.
A delay above 45 days is the gap between the dates on the report; we mark a filing late only after checking it.
"Not captured" means the band or the transaction type on the original report is missing from our data.
"Dates conflict" marks a row whose disclosure is dated before its trade on the record we hold. Both dates are printed as filed, and no prices or move are shown for that row.

Members of Congress reporting a position
2 members · estimate, as of Oct 25, 20262 members report a position (estimated). The largest estimated position is in the $1,001 - $15,000 band.
| Member | Party, chamber | Estimated position | Share of their portfolio |
|---|---|---|---|
| Julie Johnson | Democrat · House | $1,001 - $15,000 | 0.1% |
| Lucy McBath | Democrat · House | $1,001 - $15,000 | 0.2% |
Estimate, as of Oct 25, 2026. Each position is modelled from the member's disclosed transactions and annual filings: the midpoint of each disclosed band, marked to the latest close we hold. It is a rough estimate of a reported position, not a figure from a filing, which is why it is shown as a band. Share of portfolio sets that estimate against the member's whole estimated public-stock portfolio.

Which members of Congress hold PFG?
2 members of Congress report a position in PFG in the estimate we hold as of Oct 25, 2026. The estimated positions belong to Julie Johnson and Lucy McBath. The estimate is built from disclosed transactions and annual filings, so it is shown as a band rather than a figure from a filing.

Principal Financial Group, Inc. is a current member of the S&P 500, per the membership list we hold as of Oct 27, 2026. Current members of either index get a page here whatever their filing history.
How quickly are PFG trades disclosed?

How to read a Form 4
A DECISION THE INSIDER MADE
COMPENSATION PLUMBING
Congress rows disclose a value range rather than an exact amount, and the STOCK Act allows up to 45 days to report. Full sourcing and the limits of this data are on the methodology page. A filing is a record of a transaction, not a signal, and nothing here is investment advice.
