* Prudential Financial, Inc. expects that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the third business day following the date of confirmation of orders with respect to the Notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+3”). Pursuant to Rule 15c6-1 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes on the date of pricing will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes should consult their own advisors.

An explanation of the significance of ratings may be obtained from the rating agencies. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on such material and information, and such of their own investigations, studies and assumptions, as they deem appropriate. The rating of the notes should be evaluated independently from similar ratings of other securities. A credit rating of a security is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to review, revision, suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.

Investing in the Notes involves a number of risks. See “Risk Factors” included or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement dated March 1, 2018 and the related prospectus dated March 1, 2018.
