**PRESS RELEASE** 

**Prudential Financial Announces Leadership Alignment** 

**NEWARK, N.J., Dec. 18, 2025 –** Prudential Financial, Inc. (**<u>NYSE: PRU</u>**) today announced a realignment of its senior business leadership structure to streamline operations in the company's largest markets and sharpen focus on key growth opportunities. As a result of this realignment, leaders responsible for the company's U.S. businesses, Emerging Markets, the Japan Group and Prudential's asset management business, PGIM, will now report directly to Chief Executive Officer Andrew (Andy) Sullivan.

This change is designed to support Prudential's long-term growth agenda and strengthen accountability across its global businesses, advancing the company's priorities of evolving its strategy, executing with consistency and discipline and fostering a high-performance culture. It is also consistent with the <u>leadership alignment announced earlier this year for its Japan business</u>.

"We are aligning our leadership structure with our strategy to build a more agile, more focused Prudential," said Sullivan." "This change positions us to deliver stronger and more consistent performance over time."

Phil Waldeck, currently head of Multi-Asset and Quantitative Solutions at Prudential's asset management business, PGIM, has been appointed executive vice president, head of Prudential's U.S. Businesses, effective Feb. 2, 2026.

"Phil is an experienced leader with a deep understanding of our businesses and a proven ability to drive results," said CEO Sullivan. "His experience across Prudential's businesses, coupled with his ability to deliver meaningful outcomes, will be essential as we continue to build momentum in our U.S. businesses."

Prior to PGIM, Waldeck served as Prudential's chief transformation officer and previously held senior business leadership roles including president of Retirement and head of Pension and Structured Solutions, giving him broad understanding of the company's core markets and customer segments.

David Legher, head of Emerging Markets, will report directly to Sullivan, alongside Waldeck, the Japan Group President and CEO Brad Hearn, and PGIM President and CEO Jacques Chappuis. 

As part of these changes, Caroline Feeney, global head of Retirement and Insurance, will depart Prudential.

"Caroline has been a trusted partner to me for many years," said Sullivan. "I am deeply grateful for her commitment to Prudential and for the lasting influence of her leadership."
