**PSF PGIM Flexible Managed Portfolio** 

**SUMMARY PROSPECTUS • May 1, 2026**

------

*Before you invest, you may want to review the Portfolio's Prospectus, which contains more information about the Portfolio and its risks. You can ﬁnd the Portfolio's Prospectus, Statement of Additional Information (SAI), Annual Report and other information about the Portfolio online at www.prudential.com/variableinsuranceportfolios. You can also get this information at no cost by calling 1-800-346-3778 or by sending an e-mail to: service@prudential.com. The Portfolio's Prospectus and SAI, both dated May 1, 2026, as supplemented and amended from time to time, and the Portfolio's most recent shareholder report, dated December 31, 2025 are all hereby incorporated by reference into (legally made a part of) this Summary Prospectus.*

**INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE**

The investment objective of the Portfolio is total return consistent with an aggressively managed diversified portfolio.

**PORTFOLIO FEES AND EXPENSES**

The table below shows the fees and expenses that you may pay if you invest in shares of the Portfolio. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the table. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)** |  |  |
|  | **Class I Shares**  | **Class III Shares**  |
| Management Fees | 0.60% | 0.60% |
| + Distribution and/or Service Fees (12b-1 Fees) |  | 0.25%  |
| + Other Expenses | 0.02% | 0.02% |
| = Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses | 0.62% | 0.87% |

---

**Example.** The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the example. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **1 Year**  | **3 Years**  | **5 Years**  | **10 Years**  |
| PSF PGIM Flexible Managed Portfolio Class I Shares  | $63  | $199  | $346  | $774  |
| PSF PGIM Flexible Managed Portfolio Class III Shares  | $89  | $278  | $482  | $1073 |

---

**Portfolio Turnover.** The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio's performance. During the Portfolio's most recent fiscal year ended December 31, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 117% of the average value of its portfolio.

**INVESTMENTS, RISKS AND PERFORMANCE**

**Principal Investment Strategies.** The Portfolio invests in a mix of equity and equity-related securities, debt obligations and money market instruments. Under normal market conditions, the Portfolio typically invests approximately 60% of its assets in equity and equity-related securities (with a range of 25% to 100%) and approximately 40% of its assets in debt obligations and money market instruments (with a range of 0% to 75%). The percentage of Portfolio assets in each category is adjusted depending on the Portfolio's expectations regarding the different markets.

4SUMPROS

------

The equity portion of the Portfolio is generally managed under an actively managed, disciplined and adaptive strategy. Under this strategy, the portfolio managers utilize quantitative investment models as a tool in seeking to outperform the S&P 500 Index and to limit the possibility of significantly underperforming that index. The stock portion of the Portfolio is invested in a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks generally consisting of large and mid-size companies, although it may also hold stocks of smaller companies. The Portfolio invests in companies that are expected to provide either attractive returns relative to the Portfolio's peers, or that are desirable to hold in the Portfolio to manage risk.

Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the fixed income portion of the Portfolio may be invested in intermediate and long-term debt obligations that are rated investment grade by a major rating service, or, if unrated, considered to be of comparable quality, and high-quality money market instruments. Likewise, 20% of the fixed income portion of the Portfolio may be invested in debt securities rated BB+ or lower by S&P Global Ratings or Ba1 or lower by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. or comparably rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization at the time they are purchased (commonly known as "junk bonds"). The Portfolio may also invest in instruments that are not rated, but which are deemed to be of comparable quality to the instruments described above. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations and other credit-related asset-backed securities.

The fixed income portion of the Portfolio may also include loans and assignments in the form of loan participations, mortgage-related securities and other asset-backed securities. Up to 20% of the fixed income portion of the Portfolio may also be invested in collateralized debt obligations, including collateralized loan obligations, and other credit-related asset backed securities.

The Portfolio may also invest up to 30% of its total assets in foreign equity and debt securities that are not denominated in the US dollar. In addition, up to 20% of the Portfolio's total assets may be invested in debt securities that are issued outside of the US by foreign or US issuers provided the securities are denominated in US dollars. For these purposes, we do not consider American Depositary Receipts as foreign securities.

The Portfolio may also invest in convertible debt warrants and convertible and non-convertible preferred stock of any rating. The Portfolio will not acquire any common stock except by converting a convertible security or exercising a warrant or through a restructuring. No more than 10% of the Portfolio's total assets will be held in common stocks, and those will usually be sold as soon as a favorable opportunity arises. The Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions to earn income.

The stock portion of the Portfolio is invested in a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks generally consisting of large and mid-size companies, although it may also hold stocks of smaller companies. The Portfolio invests in companies that, in the subadviser's judgment, will provide either attractive returns relative to the Portfolio's peers, or are desirable to hold in the Portfolio to manage risk.

The Portfolio may invest without limitation in debt obligations issued or guaranteed by the US Government and government-related entities. Examples of debt securities that are backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government are Treasury Inflation Protected Securities and obligations of the Government National Mortgage Association. In addition, the Portfolio may invest in US Government securities issued by other government entities, like the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Student Loan Marketing Association which are not backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government. Instead, these issuers have the right to borrow from the US Treasury to meet their obligations. The Portfolio may also invest in the debt securities of other government-related entities, like the Farm Credit System, which depend entirely upon their own resources to repay their debt.

The Portfolio may also enter into short sales against-the-box. No more than 25% of the Portfolio's net assets may be used as collateral or segregated for purposes of securing a short sale obligation.

**Principal Risks of Investing in the Portfolio.** The risks summarized below are the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio. The relative significance of the risks summarized below may change over time. All investments have risks to some degree, and it is possible that you could lose money by investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. While the Portfolio makes every effort to achieve its objective, the Portfolio cannot guarantee success. To the extent the Portfolio invests in underlying investment companies or other underlying portfolios, the Portfolio may be exposed to these risks directly through securities and other investments held directly by the Portfolio or indirectly through investments made by underlying portfolios in which the Portfolio invests.

**Equity Securities Risk**. The value of a particular stock or equity-related security held by the Portfolio could fluctuate, perhaps greatly, in response to a number of factors, such as changes in the issuer's financial condition or the value of the equity markets or a sector of those markets. Such events may result in losses to the Portfolio. In addition, due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price.

------

**Fixed Income Securities Risk**. Investment in fixed income securities involves a variety of risks, including that: an issuer or guarantor of a security will be unable or unwilling to pay obligations when due; due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price; and the Portfolio's investment may decrease in value when interest rates rise. Volatility in interest rates and in fixed income markets may increase the risk that the Portfolio's investment in fixed income securities will go down in value. To the extent rates increase substantially and/or rapidly, a Portfolio may be subject to significant losses if it has significant investments in fixed income investments. Changes in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities.

**High Yield Risk**. Investments in fixed income instruments rated below investment grade and unrated instruments of similar credit quality (i.e., "high yield securities" or "junk bonds") may be more sensitive to interest rate, credit, call, and liquidity risks than investments in investment grade securities, and have predominantly speculative characteristics. An economic downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a high yield investment may lose significant value before a default occurs.

**Foreign Investment Risk**. Foreign markets tend to be more volatile than US markets and are generally not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to those in the US. Foreign securities include investments in securities of foreign issuers denominated in foreign currencies, as well as securities of foreign issuers denominated in US dollars and American Depositary Receipts. Foreign investment risk includes the risk that: changes in currency exchange rates may affect the value of foreign securities held by the Portfolio; foreign markets generally are more volatile than, and generally are not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to, US markets; foreign financial reporting and tax standards usually differ from those in the US; foreign exchanges are often less liquid than US markets; political or social developments may adversely affect the value of foreign securities; foreign holdings may be subject to special taxation and limitations on repatriating investment proceeds; and certain events in foreign markets may adversely affect foreign and domestic issuers, including, among others, military conflict, geopolitical developments, interruptions in the global supply chain, natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious diseases.

**Asset-Backed and/or Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk**. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities primarily are fixed income securities that represent an interest in an underlying pool of assets, such as credit card receivables or, in the case of mortgage-backed securities, mortgage loans. Like fixed income securities, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are subject to interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk, which may be heightened in connection with investments in loans to "subprime" borrowers. Certain asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are subject to the risk that those obligations will be repaid sooner than expected or later than expected, either of which may result in lower-than-expected returns. Mortgage-backed securities, because they are backed by mortgage loans, are also subject to risks related to real estate, and securities backed by private-issued mortgages may experience higher rates of default on the underlying mortgages than securities backed by government-issued mortgages.

**Blend Style Risk.** A Portfolio's blend investment style may subject the Portfolio to risks of both value and growth investing as the Portfolio's portfolio managers may invest in equity and equity related securities from traditionally growth and value areas, as well as stocks exhibiting characteristics of both. The portion of the Portfolio's portfolio that makes investments pursuant to a growth strategy may be subject to above-average market price fluctuations as a result of seeking high-quality stocks with good future growth prospects. The portion of the Portfolio's portfolio that makes investments pursuant to a value strategy may be subject to the risk that the market may not recognize a security's intrinsic value for long periods of time or that a stock judged to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced. Issuers of value stocks may have experienced adverse business developments or may be subject to special risks that have caused the stock to be out of favor. If the Portfolio's assessment of market conditions or a company's value is inaccurate, the Portfolio could suffer losses or produce poor performance relative to other funds. Historically, growth stocks have performed best during later stages of economic expansion and value stocks have performed best during periods of economic recovery. Therefore, both styles may over time go in and out of favor depending on market conditions. At times when a style is out of favor, that portion of the portfolio may lag the other portion of the portfolio, which may cause the Portfolio to underperform the market in general, its benchmark, and other similar funds. Growth and value stocks have historically produced similar long-term results, though each category has periods when it outperforms the other.

**Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) Risk:** The risks of an investment in a CDO, which can include collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), depend largely on the quality and type of the collateral and the tranche of the CDO in which the Portfolio invests. Investments in CDOs may be illiquid. In addition to the risks associated with debt instruments (e.g., interest rate risk and credit risk), CDOs carry additional risks including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the possibility that the Portfolio may invest in CDOs that are subordinate to other classes of the issuer's securities; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

------

**Credit Risk.** This is the risk that the issuer, the guarantor, or the insurer of a fixed income security, the counterparty to an investment or derivatives contract, or obligor of an obligation underlying an asset-backed security may be unable or unwilling to make timely principal and interest payments or to otherwise honor its obligations. Litigation, legislation or other political events, business or economic conditions, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer's or obligor's ability to make payments of principal and/or interest. The lower the credit quality of a bond, the more sensitive it is to credit risk, and the credit quality of an investment can deteriorate rapidly.

**Currency Risk.** Currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates will adversely affect the market value of a Portfolio's investments, including the risk that the currencies in which the Portfolio's investments are traded or in which the Portfolio receives income will decline in value relative to the US dollar. The overall impact on a Portfolio's holdings can be significant, and long-lasting, depending on the currencies represented in the portfolio and how each foreign currency appreciates or depreciates in relation to the US dollar and whether currency positions are hedged. Further, since exchange rate movements are volatile, a Portfolio's attempt at hedging could be unsuccessful, and it is not possible to effectively hedge the currency risks of many emerging market countries.

**Equity and Equity-Related Securities Risk**. From time to time, the Portfolio may purchase or hold equity or equity-related securities incidental to the purchase or ownership of fixed income instruments or in connection with a reorganization of a borrower. These include common stock, preferred stock or securities that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock—known as convertible securities—like rights and warrants. The value of a particular equity or equity-related security held by a Portfolio could fluctuate, perhaps greatly, in response to a number of factors, such as changes in the issuer's financial condition, changes in interest rates, or heightened levels of inflation. Such events may result in losses to the Portfolio. In addition, due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price.

**Expense Risk**. The actual cost of investing in the Portfolio may be higher than the expenses shown in the "Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses" table above for a variety of reasons, including, for example, if the Portfolio's average net assets decrease.

**Interest Rate Risk**. The value of your investment may go down when interest rates rise. A rise in interest rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. When interest rates fall, the issuers of debt obligations may prepay principal more quickly than expected, and the Portfolio may be required to reinvest the proceeds at a lower interest rate. This is referred to as "prepayment risk." When interest rates rise, debt obligations may be repaid more slowly than expected, and the value of the Portfolio's holdings may fall sharply. This is referred to as "extension risk." As interest rates rise, the value of fixed income investments typically decreases and there is risk that rates across the financial system also may rise. To the extent rates increase substantially and/or rapidly, a Portfolio with significant investment in fixed income investments may be subject to significant losses. The Portfolio may lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply or in a manner not anticipated by the subadviser. Decreases in interest rates create the potential for a decrease in income earned by a Portfolio. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Portfolio may be unable to maintain positive returns. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Portfolio performance.

**Large Company Risk.** Large-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the Portfolio to underperform investments that focus on small- or medium-capitalization stocks. Larger, more established companies may be slow to respond to challenges and may grow more slowly than smaller companies. Investments in securities of certain issuers with the largest market capitalizations can result in greater investment exposure to a limited number of issuers and sectors, primarily the technology sector, which can result in greater losses in the event of a market downturn or deteriorating fundamentals in those issuers or sectors.

**Liquidity and Valuation Risk**. The Portfolio may hold one or more securities for which there are no or few buyers and sellers or the securities are subject to limitations on transfer. The Portfolio may be unable to sell those portfolio holdings at the desired time or price, and may have difficulty determining the value of such securities for the purpose of determining the Portfolio's net asset value. In such cases, investments owned by the Portfolio may be valued at fair value pursuant to policies and procedures adopted and implemented by the Manager. No assurance can be given that the fair value prices

------

accurately reflect the value of the security. The Portfolio is subject to a liquidity risk management program, which limits the ability of the Portfolio to invest in illiquid investments.

**Loan Risk.** A Portfolio's ability to receive payments of principal and interest and other amounts in connection with loans (whether through participations, assignments or otherwise) will depend primarily on the financial condition of the borrower. The failure by the Portfolio to receive scheduled interest or principal payments on a loan because of a default, bankruptcy or any other reason would adversely affect the income of the Portfolio and would likely reduce the value of its assets. Even with loans secured by collateral, there is the risk that the value of the collateral may decline, may be insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower, or be difficult to liquidate. In the event of a default, the Portfolio may have difficulty collecting on any collateral and would not have the ability to collect on any collateral for an uncollateralized loan. Further, the Portfolio's access to collateral, if any, may be limited by bankruptcy laws. Loans that are secured and senior to other debtholders of a borrower tend to have more favorable loss recovery rates as compared to more junior types of below investment grade debt obligations, and junior loans can involve a higher degree of risk than more senior loans. In addition, loan participations generally are subject to restrictions on transfer, and only limited opportunities may exist to sell loan participations in secondary markets. As a result, it may be difficult for the Portfolio to value loans or sell loans at an acceptable price when it wants to sell them. Loans trade in an over-the-counter market, and confirmation and settlement, which are effected through standardized procedures and documentation, may have an impact on the length and timing of completing trades. To the extent the Portfolio invests in loans of non-US issuers, the risks of investing in non-US issuers are applicable. Loans may not be considered to be "securities" and as a result may not benefit from the protections of the federal securities laws, including anti-fraud protections and those with respect to the use of material non-public information, so that purchasers, such as the Portfolio, may not have the benefit of these protections.

**Market and Management Risk**. Markets in which the Portfolio invests may experience volatility and go down in value, and possibly sharply and unpredictably in short periods of time. Investment techniques, risk analyses, and investment strategies, which may include quantitative models or methods, used by a subadviser in making investment decisions for the Portfolio are subject to human error and may not produce the intended or desired results. While a portfolio manager or Subadviser(s) may make efforts to control the risks associated with market changes, and may attempt to identify changes as they occur, market environment changes can be sudden and extreme. The value of the Portfolio's investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of domestic or global events, including war, terrorism, significant or unexpected failures, near-failures or credit downgrades of key institutions, unexpected changes in the prices of key commodities, government actions, including the threat of or actual imposition of tariffs, environmental disasters, natural disasters, sanctions, cybersecurity events, supply chain disruptions, political or civil instability, and public health emergencies, among others. Such events may reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and significantly adversely impact the economy. These events can disrupt the operations of the Portfolio and its service providers, adversely affect the liquidity and volatility of investments held by the Portfolio, and negatively impact the Portfolio's performance. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Portfolio will be achieved. In periods of market volatility and/or declines, the Portfolio may experience high levels of shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when it would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices.

**Mid-Sized Company Risk**. The shares of mid-sized companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can have an adverse effect on the pricing and volatility of these securities and on the Portfolio's ability to sell the securities.

**Portfolio Turnover Risk**. A subadviser may engage in active trading on behalf of the Portfolio—that is, frequent trading of the Portfolio's securities—in order to take advantage of new investment opportunities or yield differentials. The Portfolio's turnover rate may be higher than that of other mutual funds. Portfolio turnover generally involves some expense to the Portfolio, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestment in other securities.

**Prepayment or Call Risk.** Prepayment or call risk is the risk that issuers will prepay fixed-rate obligations held by the Portfolio when interest rates fall, forcing a Portfolio to reinvest in obligations with lower interest rates than the original obligations. Mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities are particularly subject to prepayment risk.

**Quantitative Model Risk.** The Portfolio and certain underlying portfolios, if applicable, may use quantitative models as part of their investment process. Securities or other investments selected using quantitative methods may perform differently from the market as a whole or from their expected performance for many reasons, including factors used in building the quantitative analytical framework, the weights placed on each factor, and changing sources of market returns. There can be no assurance that these methodologies will produce the desired results or enable the Portfolio to achieve its objective. A given model may be more effective with certain instruments or strategies than others, and there can be no assurance that any model can identify and incorporate all factors that will affect an investment's price or performance. When models prove to be incorrect or incomplete, including because data is stale, missing or unavailable, any decisions made in reliance thereon expose the Portfolio to potential risks. Models rely on correct data inputs. If incorrect data is entered into even a well-founded model, the resulting information will be incorrect.

------

**Regulatory Risk**. The Portfolio is subject to a variety of laws and regulations which govern its operations. The Portfolio is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the CFTC). Similarly, the businesses and other issuers of the securities and other instruments in which the Portfolio invests are also subject to considerable regulation. Changes in laws and regulations may materially impact the Portfolio, a security, business, sector, or market.

**Short Sale Risk**. A short sale involves the risk that the price of a borrowed security will increase during the time the Portfolio has borrowed the security and the Portfolio will incur a loss equal to the increase in price from the time that the short sale was entered into plus any premiums and interest paid to the third party. Short sales may result in losses that are greater than the cost of the investment. In addition, the third party to the short sale may fail to honor its contract terms, causing a loss to the Portfolio.

**US Government Securities Risk.** US Government securities may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates, a default by, or downgrades in the credit quality rating of, the US Government, and may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government.

**Past Performance.** The bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the Portfolio's performance from year to year and by showing how the Portfolio's average annual returns for 1, 5, and 10 years compare with those of a broad-based securities market index that reflects the performance of the overall market applicable to the Portfolio and an additional index that represents the market sectors in which the Portfolio primarily invests. Past performance does not mean that the Portfolio will achieve similar results in the future.

The annual returns and average annual returns shown in the chart and table are after deduction of expenses and do not include Contract charges. If Contract charges were included, the returns shown would have been lower than those shown. Consult your Contract prospectus for information about Contract charges.

The table also demonstrates how the Portfolio's performance compares to the returns of a custom blended index which consists of the S&P 500 Index (60%), Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (35%) and FTSE 3-Month US Treasury Bill Index (5%). The Portfolio's investment manager determined the weight of each index comprising the custom blended index. Annual return information in the bar chart is provided only for Class I shares. Because all of the Portfolio's shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities, annual returns for Class III shares would be lower because Class III shares do not have the same expenses as Class I shares.

In addition, Contract owners may wish to consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of investments in the Contracts and the Portfolio, including the application of US federal, state and local and non-US taxes. The Portfolio currently intends to be treated as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes. As a result, the Portfolio's income, gains, losses, deductions, and credits are "passed through" pro rata directly to the Participating Insurance Companies and retain the same character for US federal income tax purposes.

**FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY COMPENSATION**

If you purchase your Contract through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Participating Insurance Company, the Portfolio, or their related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of the Contract, the selection of the Portfolio, and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Contract over another investment or insurance product, or to recommend the Portfolio over another investment option under the Contract. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
