For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Conservative Balanced Portfolio returned 8.77%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $2,574.4 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is total investment return consistent with a conservatively managed diversified portfolio. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are Prudential Investment Management Inc. and Quantitative Management Associates LLC.

The Portfolio’s custom blended Index (the Index) returned 9.21%. Despite many investors’ expectation of a correction in stock prices in 2014, periodic chaos in global affairs, and a scare related to the Ebola virus, the S&P 500 Index delivered returns above 13%. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index gained more than 5%, led by a strong and unexpected performance by long duration U.S. Treasury bonds.

The U.S. economy finally gained some traction, moving above the 2% average annual growth rate that had prevailed since 2009. Reduced fiscal drag; recovery in housing, autos, and other consumer goods; a highly stimulative Federal Reserve policy; contributions from a revived U.S. energy sector; and inventory accumulation resulted in a robust annualized 5.0% rate of growth in the third quarter of the year.

Strong U.S. stock market gains drove the Portfolio’s return, despite a weak year for international stocks. On average, it held major overweights of U.S. stocks, with less aggressive positions in international markets. Stock returns were driven by rising price-earnings (P/E) multiples and solid earnings growth. Investors cannot count on multiples increasing indefinitely, but today’s levels are roughly in line with historical averages and well below levels that have led to bear markets.

The Portfolio’s performance was driven by an overweight allocation of U.S. equities versus bonds and solid returns from holdings in its active equity and fixed income segments. In the equity segment, QMA emphasized U.S. stocks. The Portfolio held only 1% in emerging markets, which declined in 2014. In bonds the Portfolio outperformed due to solid asset selection rather than large macro positions.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

 

Blended Index consists of S&P 500 Index (50%), Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (40%), an unmanaged index comprised of more than 5,000 government and corporate bonds, and 3-Month T-Bill Index (10%), an unmanaged market value-weighted index of investment grade fixed rate public obligations of the U.S. Treasury with maturities of three months, excluding zero coupon strips. S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged, market value-weighted index of 500 stocks generally representative of the broad stock market. These returns do not include the effect of any investment management expenses. These returns would have been lower if they included the effect of these expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Diversified Bond Portfolio returned 7.09%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $1,067.9 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is a high level of income over a longer term while providing reasonable safety of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Prudential Investment Management, Inc.

The fixed income markets recorded positive returns overall during 2014, as long-term interest rates declined. After cresting in early January on fears of the Federal Reserve’s (“Fed”) taper and eventual rate hikes, yields on longer-term Treasuries trended down for the rest of the year. The 30-year Treasury yield fell 122 basis points (bps) to 2.75% (a basis point is one hundredth of a percentage point), while the bellwether 10-year Treasury yield fell 86 bps to 2.17%. Meanwhile, the Treasury yield curve flattened, as shorter-term yields edged up. By the end of the period, the yield on a two-year Treasury had risen 28 bps to 0.67%.

During the first half of the year, the fixed income markets posted modest gains, despite mixed U.S. economic data, weaker economic growth in China, and geopolitical turmoil in the Middle East and Russia/Ukraine. Divergence between central bank policy in the U.S. and the rest of the world, combined with a rising tide of geopolitical risk, contributed to a growing sense of unease during the second half of the year. U.S. economic growth strengthened, while growth outside the U.S. generally flagged as commodity prices fell and inflationary pressures dissipated. At the same time, the value of the U.S. dollar surged relative to most world currencies. Risk aversion increased and spreads widened on investment-grade corporate bonds, high-yield corporate bonds, and emerging markets debt, causing them to underperform U.S. Treasury securities of comparable maturity. (Spreads are the amount of extra yield that bonds provide over similar-duration Treasuries.) Energy was the key story within investment-grade corporate bonds, as oil field services investment-grade issues dropped significantly in price. Midstream investment-grade bonds also lost ground. Meanwhile, municipal securities recorded solid gains, with BBB-rated municipals generating a double-digit return.

For the year, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Index”) gained 5.97%. Relative to the Index, issue selection was the largest contributor to Portfolio performance. More specifically, the Portfolio benefited from its holdings of commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), asset-backed securities, and emerging markets debt. Sector allocations also boosted returns, with the Portfolio’s overweight relative to the Index in CMBS being the primary contributor. An underweight in energy was advantageous, as many energy names weakened amid the drop in crude oil prices. In addition, the Portfolio’s duration and yield curve strategy added significantly to performance, driven by a longer duration bias and a yield curve flattening position.

Detracting slightly was an underweight relative to the Index in mortgage-backed securities and an overweight position in corporate credit. The Portfolio was also hurt by issue selection among high yield bonds.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Equity Portfolio Class I returned 7.71% and Class II returned 7.27%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $4,019.8 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Jennison Associates LLC (Jennison).

The Portfolio underperformed the 13.24% return of the Russell 1000 Index.

Faced with a challenging backdrop for consumers, stock selection in both staples and discretionary was mostly responsible for the performance shortfall relative to the S&P 500. A number of holdings in those areas fell short of expectations.

In staples, Avon and Whole Foods were notable detractors. Revenue and sales were disappointing for Avon Products. Whole Foods was eliminated, as its investment in more competitive pricing was limiting upside profit.

In consumer discretionary, JC Penney and ASOS drove underperformance. JC Penney did not respond favorably to improving fundamentals and an announced restructuring. London-based global online apparel retailer ASOS experienced disappointing financial results. The pound sterling’s appreciation against the US dollar also created currency-translation issues for the UK-based company. Both positions were eliminated.

Security choices in information technology (IT) also detracted from relative return. Amazon.com lagged, as it has been increasing its business investment to drive unit growth not only in its core retail business but through the proliferation of digital commerce via the mobile market. Jennison continues to like its long-term revenue growth, margin-expansion potential, and Amazon Web Services cloud infrastructure opportunities.

Despite relative underperformance in the sector, IT positions Apple and Facebook were strong contributors. Apple’s fundamental strength reflects expanding global acceptance of its platform. Jennison expects that product updates will sustain attractive revenue growth in the medium term. Jennison believes that as Facebook solidifies its dominant position, it will continue to increase its appeal to both users and advertisers.

In aggregate, health care positions were the most significant contributors to Portfolio return. Pharmaceutical name Allergan advanced on a takeover bid and the strength of its business, which has been enhanced by efforts to manage spending more efficiently and redeploy cash in ways that benefit shareholders. (Allergan was acquired by Actavis in November.)

Stock selection in the telecom services and industrials sectors added to relative gain. United Continental Holdings was a standout in the latter group. Airlines overall outperformed the industrials sector and the overall market. Earnings, revenue, and guidance were solid as cost cuts and higher pricing took hold. United further announced a share buyback and appears on track to achieve several key revenue initiatives, including improvements to capacity management on Asian flights.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ending December 31, 2014, the Flexible Managed Portfolio returned 11.05%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $3,943.8 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is total investment return consistent with an aggressively managed diversified portfolio. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are Prudential Investment Management Inc. and Quantitative Management Associates LLC.

The Portfolio’s Blended Index (the Index) returned 10.29%. Despite many investors’ expectation of a correction in stock prices in 2014, periodic chaos in global affairs, and a scare related to the Ebola virus, the S&P 500 Index delivered returns above 13%.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Global Portfolio returned 3.25%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $719.2 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital by investing in stocks, with about half of its assets invested in companies in the United States and half in companies located abroad. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are: Brown Advisory (Brown), LLC, (U.S. growth stocks), T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (U.S. value stocks), William Blair & Company LLC (international growth stocks), LSV Asset Management (international value stocks), and Quantitative Management Associates LLC.

The MSCI World Index (GD) (the Index) rose by 5.50%.The domestic market had a strong year, supported by accelerating economic growth, falling unemployment, and reviving manufacturing. Among shares of larger firms, the difference between growth and value returns was not great. The returns on foreign stocks were reduced for U.S. dollar-based investors by the rise of the dollar against most major foreign currencies. Japan benefited from continued economic stimulus, whereas the euro zone was late to appreciate the need for stimulus.

The Brown Domestic Large-Cap Growth segment had the largest negative impact on Portfolio performance in 2014 due to weak stock selection in the technology and consumer discretionary sectors. An underweight in Apple was among the largest detractors from performance relative to its benchmark, partially caused by Brown’s risk guideline limiting its exposure in any one security to 5% of its portfolio. Apple performed well for the year and now makes up more than 6% of the benchmark.

On the positive side, the International Growth segment of the Portfolio, managed by William Blair & Company, outperformed its benchmark. Results were driven primarily by strong stock selection in the consumer staples and financial sectors. The Portfolio also benefited from its underweight in the materials and energy sectors, both of which declined even in local currencies when the price of oil fell significantly.

None of the five subadvisers use derivative instruments as a principal investment strategy. The types of derivatives employed most often are stock futures contracts (to help manage cash flows in the Portfolio) and currency forwards and futures contracts (to hedge a portion of the Portfolio’s currency exposure). Derivatives were used, none of which had a material impact on performance.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Government Income Portfolio returned 5.86%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $339.2 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is a high level of income over the long term consistent with the preservation of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Prudential Investment Management, Inc.

The fixed income markets overall recorded positive returns during 2014. The U.S. economy performed much as expected, with economic growth continuing for the year overall and the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) tapering its quantitative easing bond-buying program. After cresting in early January on fears of the Fed taper and eventual rate hikes, yields on longer-term Treasuries trended down for the rest of the year. The 30-year Treasury yield fell 122 basis points (bps) (a basis point is one hundredth of a percentage point) to 2.75%, while the bellwether 10-year Treasury yield fell 86 bps to 2.17%. Meanwhile, the Treasury yield curve flattened, as shorter-term yields edged up. By the end of the period, the yield on a two-year Treasury had risen 28 bps to 0.67%.

The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Government Bond Index (the Index). Sector allocation was a strong driver of performance. Although U.S. Treasuries performed well during the period, the high-quality commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) in which the Fund invests contributed positively.

Security selection also added to returns, most notably within mortgage-backed securities and, to a lesser extent, CMBS.

The Portfolio’s investment in the Prudential Core Short-Term Bond Fund also benefited performance, as the Fund’s net asset value rose throughout much of the year.

While the impact of the Portfolio’s duration strategy was largely neutral, its yield curve positioning helped performance. More specifically, the Portfolio benefited from its curve flattening position as yields of five years and less rose and yields beyond five years fell.

These positive factors were modestly offset by security selection within non-agency mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds.

Tactical duration strategies and yield curve positioning that were partially implemented via interest rate swaps (derivatives) modestly benefited performance. (Duration measures the approximate price change of a bond portfolio for a given change in interest rates.)

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the High Yield Bond Portfolio returned 2.71%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $3,245.9 million.

The Portfolio’s objective is high total return. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Prudential Investment Management, Inc.

The high-yield bond market performed well during the first half of 2014 despite headwinds from geopolitical risks and concerns over global growth. During the second half of the year, high-yield bonds experienced heightened price volatility as deterioration in a few specific sectors weighed on the entire asset class. Specifically, WTI and Brent crude prices, which were trading above $100 a barrel during the summer, dropped to near $55 by year’s end, causing a selloff in energy-related securities as investors questioned the sector’s fundamentals. Risk aversion increased and high yield bond spreads widened. (Spreads are the amount of extra yield that high-yield bonds provide over similar-duration Treasuries.) Credit spreads, which had narrowed to 365 basis points (bps) (a basis point is one hundredth of a percentage point) earlier in the year, widened to 594 bps in mid December but ended the year at 523 bps. Meanwhile, the average yield on the high yield index increased 100 bps during the year to 6.65%.

Riskier high-yield bonds underperformed during the period overall, as investors discriminated between healthy and weak credits. For the year, lower credit quality CCC-rated issues returned -1.21%, B-rated issues returned 1.47%, and BB-rated issues returned 5.38%.

Demand from retail investors weakened during the second half of the year. According to Lipper, U.S. high-yield mutual funds saw outflows of $1.3 billion in assets during the fourth quarter, following $24.2 billion in outflows during the third quarter. For 2014 as a whole, outflows from high-yield mutual funds totaled $20.6 billion.

New issue volume also weakened. After averaging $35 billion in new issuance every month during the first half of the year, activity dropped approximately 30% and averaged about $25 billion in the second half of the year. For 2014, total new issuance was $356 billion, slightly behind the record-setting pace of 2013.

The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. High Yield 1% Issuer Capped Index (the Index), which returned 2.42% during the period. Sector allocations and issue selection contributed positively to the Portfolio’s results.

Relative to its sector positioning, the Portfolio benefited from underweights in energy and metals as well as an overweight in technology. An overweight position in the gaming sector and underweight positions in the financials and cable sectors slightly dampened performance.

Individual issue selection was also positive, led by the Portfolio’s holdings in the gaming, cable, and retailing sectors. The Portfolio’s picks in chemicals, telecommunications, and electric utilities detracted somewhat from relative returns.

The Portfolio makes use of derivatives, including credit default swaps, to increase or hedge exposure to individual issuers and the broader market. Cash held for liquidity purposes in short-term, low-rate securities created a drag on performance during the year. Use of the CDX, a credit default swap index, provided market exposure during periods of lower liquidity, partially offsetting the drag from cash. Derivatives did not have a material impact on performance.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Jennison Portfolio Class I returned 9.99% and Class II returned 9.58%. The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $1,623.7 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Jennison Associates LLC (Jennison).

Faced with a challenging consumer environment, the Portfolio’s consumer holdings in the aggregate underperformed the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the Index) consumer names. Amazon.com’s earnings were constrained by increased business investment designed to drive unit growth in its core retail business and through digital commerce via the mobile market. Whole Foods Market was hurt by intensifying competition in the organic and natural foods market. The Portfolio no longer holds a position in Whole Foods. Weakness in Industria de Diseño Textil, or Inditex, best known for its brand, Zara, reflected currency translation issues due to the euro’s strength relative to many other currencies (Inditex is based in Spain). Underlying growth at the company remains strong.

More than offsetting these declines were strong gains in other consumer holdings, including global athletic apparel companies Under Armour and NIKE, hotel operator Marriott International, media conglomerate Disney, and electric car innovator Tesla Motors.

Health care positions were the most significant contributors to Portfolio return. Meaningful scientific advances coupled with increased research and development and clinical trial activity have led to numerous drug introductions and improvement in the treatment of serious diseases. Biotech companies held in the Portfolio benefited from their innovative drugs for blood disorders and autoimmune diseases (Alexion Pharmaceuticals’ Soliris), cancer (Celgene’s Revlimid and Abraxane), cystic fibrosis (Vertex Pharmaceuticals’ Kalydeco), multiple sclerosis (Biogen Idec’s Tecfidera), and hepatitis C (Gilead Sciences’ Sovaldi and Harvoni).

The Portfolio’s strength in the health care sector extended beyond biotechnology. In pharmaceuticals, Allergan advanced on a takeover bid and the strength of its business, which was enhanced by efforts to manage spending more efficiently and redeploy cash in ways that benefit shareholders. (Allergan was acquired by Actavis in November.) Illumina’s gain reflected increasing demand for its next-generation gene-sequencing technology.

Information technology positions were likewise strong contributors to return although Portfolio positions lagged the returns of the benchmark sector largely on weakness in select cloud-based companies. Apple’s strong revenue and earnings reflected expanding global acceptance of its platform. Jennison expects that product updates, especially iPhone 6, will sustain attractive revenue growth in the medium term.

Internet-based social platform Facebook reported strong revenue and earnings as well as healthy measures of growth in users and user engagement. The company has successfully implemented its mobile interface, and revenue generation of both mobile and desktop applications has improved.

Twitter’s revenue and earnings exceeded expectations, but user growth decelerated, in part because of slower-than-expected improvements in new user onboarding and access. Jennison believes the company’s communication platform complements traditional media outlets and that income-generation opportunities are substantial.

Next-generation security software vendor FireEye declined with a broad sell-off of high-multiple software growth stocks despite its strong billings, new customer, and revenue growth. The company’s behavioral analysis technology and real-time threat detection and prevention platform are able to identify highly sophisticated malware.

7-DAY CURRENT NET YIELD*

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Money Market Portfolio returned 0.00%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $823.6 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is to seek maximum current income consistent with the stability of capital and maintenance of liquidity. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Prudential Investment Management, Inc.

The seven-day current yield and total return of the Portfolio remained near zero during the period. Throughout the year, the yields on all money market funds in the United States stayed at historically low levels, as the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) maintained its efforts to keep rates low in support of its dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability.

During the year, the U.S. economy was a beacon of hope, as global economies struggled with lower demand and disinflationary forces. Despite a soft patch during the first quarter due to harsh winter weather, the U.S. economy expanded in the second and third quarters, driven by an increase in business investment and a rise in consumer confidence resulting from steady improvement in the labor markets as well as lower energy prices.

As the U.S. economy strengthened, the Fed began slowly reducing the pace of its asset purchases, known as quantitative easing, and ended the program in October. In the fourth quarter, the Fed altered its forward guidance to suggest that monetary policy would remain highly accommodative and said it would keep federal funds target rate between 0% and 0.25% for the foreseeable future. However, toward the end of the year, the Fed appeared more confident in the broad economic expansion and indicated the normalization of monetary policy could happen sooner rather than later, leading to speculation that the Fed would start raising interest rates in mid 2015.

The three month London Interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”), the rate that banks pay one another to borrow in U.S. dollars, remained low during the year, averaging 0.23% and moving in an extremely narrow range of between 0.22% and 0.26%. However, one-year LIBOR rose, reflecting expectations of higher interest rates, and peaked at 0.63% at the end of 2014.

A flat yield curve and scarce supply of eligible securities provided few investment opportunities. Corporations took advantage of low interest rates to issue debt with maturities of longer than one year. Furthermore, regulatory forces compelled borrowers to avoid short term funding. Meanwhile, demand was strong for a limited number of shorter-term issues, which pushed yields lower. As corporate spreads (the difference in yield between corporate bonds and government bonds of similar maturities) remained narrow, the Portfolio favored government-issued debt, agency securities, and repurchase agreements. The Portfolio maintained a conservative investment approach by limiting the majority of its investments to less than three months and utilizing LIBOR-based securities to add relative value when appropriate. It kept its exposure to financial issuers in relatively short maturities as yields fell with the return of investor confidence to this sector.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Natural Resources Portfolio Class I returned -19.47% and Class II
returned -19.79%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $632.5 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Jennison Associates LLC (Jennison).

Natural resources stocks reversed gains from early in the year, ending 2014 broadly lower. In the second half of the reporting period, oil prices moved sharply and steadily downward to multi-year lows. Commodity prices were broadly hampered by global macroeconomic weak spots and the strengthening U.S. dollar. Energy stocks were particularly hard hit by declining oil prices.

The Portfolio underperformed its broad benchmark the S&P 500 Index, as well as the narrower Lipper (VUF) Natural Resources Funds Index (the Index) primarily due to its holdings in the energy sector. The Portfolio’s energy equipment and services holdings and oil, gas, and consumable fuels shares posted losses. In materials, the metals and mining shares also ended lower. Conversely chemicals, in which the Portfolio had a small weighting, rose. Within energy, stock selection and allocations were negative relative to the Index, particularly in the oil, gas, and consumable fuels group. Stock selection detracted in materials, and allocations in metals and mining also had a negative impact on relative performance.

Among top absolute contributors, shares of oil and natural gas producer Cheniere Energy rose strongly on prospects for becoming the first large-scale U.S. exporter of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”), as the company received a construction permit for its second proposed Corpus Christi LNG export facility. Also, the company has signed a long-term take or pay contract with a Portuguese utility company. Despite the downward direction of oil prices, independent producer EOG Resources posted gains on the strength of its assets in high-growth locations. Jennison has a favorable view of the company’s asset portfolio, balance sheet, and execution. Shares of rotating equipment provider Dresser-Rand Group rose on news that Germany-based Siemens, a global energy and infrastructure technology company, made an offer to acquire it. The Portfolio no longer holds shares of Dresser-Rand.

Oil and gas exploration and production companies, and many related equipment and services providers, were widely affected by the severe declines in oil prices. Offshore drilling contractor Noble Energy, independent U.S. oil and gas producer Laredo Petroleum, and Rosetta Resources, an onshore producer with assets primarily in southern Texas, were among the major detractors to the Portfolio’s relative returns.

As the Portfolio used few derivatives during the reporting period, derivatives had no meaningful impact on performance.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Small Capitalization Stock Portfolio returned 5.39%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $750.9 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Quantitative Management Associates LLC (QMA).

U.S. economic indicators continued to improve over the course of the year and the stock markets responded accordingly. A highlight was the resurgence in consumer activity and confidence as gasoline prices dropped and employment improved. However, the housing market had sporadic returns and remained sluggish, a fact attributed to tight credit markets according to Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen.

Manufacturing also softened towards the end of the year although the U.S. Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI) remained comfortably above the critical 50 reading, denoting the line between expansion and contraction, and leading the way among developed economies. Strong economic results helped the Federal Reserve become one of the few central banks in the world moving towards a tighter monetary policy. Both large- and mid-cap stocks outperformed small-caps.

Potential tracking error differences, brokerage costs, as well as other costs and expenses of the Portfolio, may cause its return to be lower than that of the S&P Small Cap 600 Index. The Portfolio underperformed the 5.76% return of the Index.

During the year, the Portfolio had a small exposure to derivative instruments to help enhance its liquidity, but the position did not have a material impact on its performance.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Stock Index Portfolio returned 13.31%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $3,312.7 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve investment results that generally correspond to the performance of publicly traded common stocks. Quantitative Management Associates LLC (QMA) subadvises the Portfolio, which is an index fund that uses a risk-controlled quantitative approach that seeks to effectively track the performance of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index (the Index). While Prudential Financial, Inc. (Prudential) is one of the components to the S&P 500, the Portfolio cannot hold shares of Prudential because of compliance restrictions.

Potential tracking error (the difference between the return of the portfolio and the return of benchmark) differences, brokerage costs, as well as other costs and expenses of the Portfolio, may cause its return to be lower than that of the Index. In 2014, the Portfolio underperformed the Index, which returned 13.66%.

Stocks performed strongly during the year. Investors were decidedly cautious, focusing on geopolitical concerns, such as Russia’s conflict in the Ukraine and terrorism in the Middle East, slowing economies in Europe and China, and the prospect of rising interest rates in the U.S. Due to reduced investor risk tolerance, high quality, lower risk names generally outperformed. Large-cap stocks outperformed small-caps, low beta (a measure of the risk of the portfolio that comes from its exposure to a specific benchmark. Low beta stocks are considered to be less risky than high beta stocks) outperformed high beta, and companies exhibiting higher quality characteristics and strong and improving earnings trends outperformed lower quality companies. Investors did not overpay for these characteristics as valuations remained attractive.

The Portfolio uses derivative instruments, though not as a principal investment strategy. The Portfolio had a small position in futures contracts on the S&P 500 Index to help enhance liquidity. This exposure slightly detracted from the Portfolio’s performance.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Value Portfolio Class I returned 10.10% and Class II returned 9.66%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $1,603.2 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is capital appreciation. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Jennison Associates LLC (Jennison).

The Portfolio’s Class I and Class II shares underperformed the benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index (the Index), which returned 13.45%. Consumer staples detracted the most from relative results due primarily to stock selection, although an underweight to the sector also hurt. Utilities had a negative effect on relative performance for the same reasons. Avon Products and NRG Energy drove respective results in those sectors. Revenue and sales were disappointing for Avon Products. NRG shares have been weighed down by declining gas prices and concerns over the cash flow impact of two new initiatives — carbon capture and electric vehicle charging.

Stock selection in consumer discretionary also fell short of expectations, driven by JC Penney, and the position was sold.

Energy positions underperformed their benchmark peers; Noble and Denbury Resources were especially weak. The Portfolio no longer holds a position in Denbury. In light of declines in the price of oil, Jennison has spent considerable time evaluating the Portfolio’s positions in the sector and made adjustments accordingly.

Security choices in industrials were the primary source of relative gain, driven by United Continental Holdings. Airlines overall outperformed the industrials sector and the overall market. Earnings, revenue, and guidance were solid, as cost cuts and higher pricing took hold. United further announced a share buyback and appears on track to achieve several key revenue initiatives, including improvements to capacity management on Asian flights.

Relative gain in health care was driven by advances in Actavis and HCA Holdings. Actavis reported good revenue and earnings and raised its sales and profit guidance. After major acquisitions, it has grown in size and scope, and is now, in Jennison’s opinion, a formidable brand/generic hybrid pharmaceutical company with a global scope. HCA Holdings, an operator of hospitals and freestanding surgery centers, benefited from better-than-anticipated utilization as a result of the Affordable Care Act. In Jennison’s opinion, the stock is attractive based on its industry-leading scale, which drives cost synergies, significant levels of cash flow, and a large market share in fast-growing Texas and Florida.

IT holdings Flextronics and Applied Materials were also standout performers. Flextronics, a global electronics manufacturer, enjoyed growth in its industrial and high reliability solutions businesses. Applied Materials benefited from solid earnings and margins. Jennison believes the new management team is executing well on improving margins, increasing growth in their Services business Applied Global Services-AGS, and gaining market share in their Solar & Display businesses.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

Fees and Expenses — unaudited

  December 31, 2014

 

As a contract owner investing in Portfolios of the Fund through a variable annuity or variable life contract, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other investment options. This example does not reflect fees and charges under your variable annuity or variable life contract. If contract charges were included, the costs shown below would be higher. Please consult the prospectus for your contract for more information about contract fees and charges.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the Portfolio 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 line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the Portfolio expenses you paid on your account during this period. As noted above, the table does not reflect variable contract fees and charges.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 the Portfolio and other investment options. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other investment options.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any contract fees and charges, such as sales charges (loads), insurance charges or administrative charges. Therefore the second line of the table is useful to compare ongoing investment option costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different contracts. In addition, if these contract fees and charges were included, your costs would have been higher.

A U.S. Treasury obligation with a market value of $1,652,191 has been segregated with Citigroup Global Markets to cover requirements for open exchange-traded interest rate and credit default swap contracts at December 31, 2014.

The Portfolio entered into credit default swap (“CDS”) to provide a measure of protection against defaults or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default or the reference entity’s credit soundness. CDS contracts generally trade based on a spread which represents the cost a protection buyer has to pay the protection seller. The protection buyer is said to be short the credit as the value of the contract rises the more the credit deteriorates. The value of the CDS contract increases for the protection buyer if the spread increases.

 

(1) If the Portfolio is a buyer of protection, it pays the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and make delivery of the referenced obligation 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.

 

(2) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, it receives the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio 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 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.

 

(3) Notional amount represents the maximum potential amount the Portfolio could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

 

(4) The fair value of credit default swap agreements on credit indices serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement be closed/sold as of the reporting date. Increasing fair value in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represents a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1— quoted prices generally in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2— quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates and yield curves, prepayment speeds, foreign currency exchange rates and other significant observable inputs.
Level 3— significant unobservable inputs for securities valued in accordance with Board approved fair valuation procedures.

A U.S. Treasury obligation with a market value of $4,578,525 has been segregated with Citigroup Global Markets to cover requirements for open exchanged-traded interest rate and credit default swap contracts at December 31, 2014.

The Portfolio entered into credit default swaps (“CDS”) to provide a measure of protection against defaults or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default or the reference entity’s credit soundness. CDS contracts generally trade based on a spread which represents the cost a protection buyer has to pay the protection seller. The protection buyer is said to be short the credit as the value of the contract rises the more the credit deteriorates. The value of the CDS contract increases for the protection buyer if the spread increases.

 

(1) If the Portfolio is a buyer of protection, it pays the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and make delivery of the referenced obligation 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.

 

(2) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, it receives the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will either (i) pay the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced obligation 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.

 

(3) The fair value of credit default swap agreements on credit indices serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement be closed/sold as of the reporting date. Increasing fair value in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represents a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

 

(4) Notional amount represents the maximum potential amount the Portfolio could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

(5) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of 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 up-front payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

** The realized loss incurred during the period for other financial instruments was $(6,016).

 

*** Of which, $(103,586) was relating to securities held at the reporting period end.

It is the Portfolio’s policy to recognize transfers in and transfers out at the fair value as of the beginning of period. At the reporting period end, 1 Collateralized Loan Obligation transferred out of Level 3 as a result of being valued by an independent pricing source.

Level 3 securities as presented in the table above are being fair valued using pricing methodologies approved by the Board of Trustees, which contain unobservable inputs. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, using prices provided by a single broker/dealer, the cost of the investment and prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities.

The Portfolio entered into credit default swaps (“CDS”) to provide a measure of protection against defaults or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default or the reference entity’s credit soundness. CDS contracts generally trade based on a spread which represents the cost a protection buyer has to pay the protection seller. The protection buyer is said to be short the credit as the value of the contract rises the more the credit deteriorates. The value of the CDS contract increases for the protection buyer if the spread increases.

A U.S. Government Agency Obligation with a market value of $1,792,516 has been segregated with Citigroup Global Markets to cover requirements for open interest rate and credit default exchange-traded swap contracts at December 31, 2014.

 

(1) If the Portfolio is a buyer of protection, it pays the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Series will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and make delivery of the referenced obligation 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.

 

(2) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, it receives the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio 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 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.

 

(3) Notional amount represents the maximum potential amount the Portfolio could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

 

(4) The fair value of credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative should the notional amount of the swap agreement be closed/sold as the reporting date. Increasing fair value in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represents a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1— quoted prices generally in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2— quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates and yield curves, prepayment speeds, foreign currency exchange rates and other significant observable inputs.
Level 3— significant unobservable inputs for securities valued in accordance with Board approved fair valuation procedures.

The Portfolio entered into credit default swaps (“CDS”) to provide a measure of protection against defaults or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default or the reference entity’s credit soundness. CDS contracts generally trade based on a spread which represents the cost a protection buyer has to pay the protection seller. The protection buyer is said to be short the credit as the value of the contract rises the more the credit deteriorates. The value of the CDS contract increases for the protection buyer if the spread increases.

 

(1) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, it receives the fixed rate. When a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreements, the Portfolio will either (i) pay to buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation 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.

 

(2) Notional amount represents the maximum potential amount the Portfolio could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

 

(3) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of the reporting date serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of 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 up-front payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1— quoted prices generally in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2— quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates and yield curves, prepayment speeds, foreign currency exchange rates and other significant observable inputs.
Level 3— significant unobservable inputs for securities valued in accordance with Board approved fair valuation procedures.

   It is the Portfolio’s policy to recognize transfers in and transfers out at the fair value as of the beginning of period. At the reporting period end, 1 Corporate Bond transferred out of Level 3 as a result of no longer using a single broker quote and being priced by the primary valuation vendor source and 1 Corporate Bond transferred into Level 3 as a result of being valued using a single broker quote.

 

   Included in the table above, under Level 3, are securities that were fair valued using pricing methodologies approved by the Board of Trustees, which contain unobservable inputs. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, using prices provided by a single broker/dealer, the cost of the investment, and prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities.

Level 3 securities as presented in the table above are being fair valued using pricing methodologies approved by the Board. One common stock was fair valued using last traded price adjusted for daily changes in indices deemed directly or indirectly correlated to the security. There were two convertible preferred stocks that were fair valued using a discount approach to address that lack of liquidity at such securities. For equity rights received through a bankruptcy distribution, the fair value is determined to be the residual value of the original bonds and other factors impacting the values of securities being issued pursuant to the reorganization. For certain warrants received in a private placement offering, the Manager has determined the fair value using the Black Scholes method with adjustment for volatility factor which is deemed to be a significant unobservable input. For the common stock, convertible preferred stocks and rights, the securities were private placement and therefore, the prices were a significant unobservable input.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND

 

Note 1:   General

The Prudential Series Fund (“Series Fund”), organized as a Delaware statutory trust, is a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Series Fund is composed of eighteen Portfolios (“Portfolio” or “Portfolios”), each with separate series shares. The information presented in these financial statements pertains to the thirteen Portfolios which are listed below along with each Portfolio’s investment objective.

Conservative Balanced Portfolio:    Total investment return consistent with a conservatively managed diversified portfolio.

Diversified Bond Portfolio:    High level of income over a longer term while providing reasonable safety of capital.

Equity Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

Flexible Managed Portfolio:    Total return consistent with an aggressively managed diversified portfolio.

Global Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

Government Income Portfolio:    High level of income over the long-term consistent with the preservation of capital.

High Yield Bond Portfolio:    High total return.

Jennison Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

Money Market Portfolio:    Maximum current income consistent with the stability of capital and maintenance of liquidity.

Natural Resources Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

Small Capitalization Stock Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

Stock Index Portfolio:    Achieve investment results that generally correspond to the performance of publicly traded common stocks.

Value Portfolio:    Capital appreciation.

 

Note 2:   Accounting Policies

The Series Fund follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Series Fund and the Portfolios consistently follow such policies in the preparation of their financial statements.

Securities Valuation:    Each Portfolio holds securities and other assets that are fair valued at the close of each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted Valuation Procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to Prudential Investments LLC (“PI” or “Manager”). Under the current Valuation Procedures, the established Valuation Committee is responsible for supervising the valuation of portfolio securities and other assets. The Valuation Procedures permit a Portfolio to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly-scheduled quarterly meeting.

Various inputs determine how each Portfolio’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the table following each Portfolio’s Schedule of Investments.

 

B1


Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments such as futures or options that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price; they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the inputs are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation.

Common and preferred stocks traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued using pricing vendor services that provide model prices derived using adjustment factors based on information such as local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, depositary receipts, and futures, as applicable. Securities valued using such model prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the adjustment factors are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation. Such securities are valued using model prices to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. If the confidence level is not met or the vendor does not provide a model price, securities are valued in accordance with exchange-traded common and preferred stocks discussed above.

Investments in open-end, non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Fixed income securities traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors provide these prices after evaluating observable inputs including, but not limited to yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations, and reported trades. Securities valued using such vendor prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Money Market Portfolio values all of its securities of sufficient credit quality, at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at maturity and cost. These securities are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Over-the-counter derivative instruments are generally valued using pricing vendor services, which derive the valuation based on inputs such as underlying asset prices, indices, spreads, interest rates, and exchange rates. These instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that significant unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the investment adviser regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities:    Subject to guidelines adopted by the Board, each Portfolio may invest up to 15% of their net assets (the Money Market Portfolio may invest up to 5% of its net assets) in illiquid securities, including those which are restricted as to disposition under securities law (“restricted securities”). Restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, cannot be sold within seven days in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which the

 

B2


Portfolio has valued the investment. Therefore, the Portfolio may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its Subadviser and may incur expenses that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable. Certain securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional

buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, may be deemed liquid by the Portfolio’s Subadviser under the guidelines adopted by the Board of the Portfolio. However, the liquidity of the Portfolio’s investments in Rule 144A securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.

Repurchase Agreements:    In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements with United States financial institutions, it is each Portfolio’s policy that its custodian or designated subcustodians, as the case may be, under triparty repurchase agreements, take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is marked to market on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. If the seller defaults or the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Portfolio may be delayed or limited.

Foreign Currency Translation:    The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

(i)  market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the current rates of exchange;

(ii)  purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets of the Portfolios are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Portfolios do not 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 long-term portfolio securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Portfolios do not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, these realized foreign currency gains or losses are included in the reported net realized gains or losses on investment transactions.

Net realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from holdings of foreign currencies, forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Portfolios’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains or losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies.

Concentration of Risk:    The ability of debt securities issuers (other than those issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government) held by the Portfolios to meet their obligations may be affected by the economic or political developments in a specific industry, region or country. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of political or economic instability or the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets.

Forward Currency Contracts:    A forward currency contract is a commitment between two parties to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Certain Portfolios entered into forward currency contracts in order to hedge their exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on their foreign portfolio holdings or specific receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency. The contracts are valued daily at current exchange rates and any unrealized gain or loss is included in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currencies. Gain or loss is realized on the settlement date of the contract equal to the difference between the settlement value of the original and negotiated forward contracts. This gain or loss, if any, is included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Forward currency contracts involve risks from currency exchange rate and credit

 

B3


risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A Portfolio’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty at the end of the contract’s life.

Cross Currency Exchange Contracts:    A cross currency contract is a forward contract where a specified amount of one foreign currency will be exchanged for a specified amount of another foreign currency.

Short Sales:    Certain Portfolios may sell a security they do not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security (short sale). When a Portfolio makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale as collateral for its obligation to deliver the security upon conclusion of the transaction. The Portfolio may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed securities. Dividends declared on short positions open are recorded on the ex-date and interest payable is accrued daily on fixed income securities sold short, both of which are recorded as an expense. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received.

Loan Participations:    Certain Portfolios may invest in loan participations. When the Portfolio purchases a loan participation, the Portfolio typically enters into a contractual relationship with the lender or third party selling such participations (“Selling Participant”), but not the borrower. As a result, the Portfolio assumes the credit risk of the borrower and any other persons interpositioned between the Portfolio and the borrower. The Portfolio may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the senior loan in which it has purchased the loan participation.

Financial Futures Contracts:    A financial futures contract is an agreement to purchase (long) or sell (short) an agreed amount of securities at a set price for delivery on a future date. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the “initial margin.” Subsequent payments, known as “variation margin,” are made or received by the Portfolio each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security. Such variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as unrealized gain or loss. When the contract expires or is closed, the gain or loss is realized and is presented in the Statement of Operations as net realized gain or loss on financial futures contracts.

Certain Portfolios invested in financial futures contracts in order to hedge their existing portfolio securities, or securities the Portfolio intends to purchase, against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates, the value of equities or foreign currency exchange rates. The Portfolio may also use futures to gain additional market exposure. The Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets. With exchange-traded futures contracts, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolio since the exchanges’ clearinghouse acts as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures and guarantees the futures contracts against default.

Options:    Certain Portfolios purchased and wrote options in order to hedge against adverse market movements or fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, with respect to securities which the Portfolio currently owns or intends to purchase. The Portfolios’ principal reason for writing options is to realize, through receipt of premiums, a greater current return than would be realized on the underlying security alone. When the Portfolio purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When the Portfolio writes an option, it receives a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The asset or liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires unexercised, the Portfolio realizes a gain or loss to the extent of the premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received or paid is recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or the cost of the purchase in determining whether the Portfolio has realized a gain or loss. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid at the closing of a purchase or sale transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss. Gain or loss on purchased options is included in net realized gain or loss on investment transactions. Gain or loss on written options is presented separately as net realized gain or loss on options written. The Portfolio, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may

 

B4


be sold (called) or purchased (put). As a result, the Portfolio bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. The Portfolio, as a purchaser of an over-the-counter option, bears the risk of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. With exchange-traded options contracts, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolio since the exchanges’ clearinghouse acts as counterparty to all exchange-traded options, and guarantees the options contracts against default.

Swap Agreements:    Certain Portfolios entered into credit default, interest rate, total return and other forms of swap agreements. A swap agreement is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. Swap agreements are negotiated in the over-the-counter market and may be executed either directly with a counterparty (“OTC-traded”) or through a central clearing facility, such as a registered commodities exchange (“Exchange-traded”). Swap agreements are valued daily at current market value and any change in value is included in the net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments. Exchange-traded swaps pay or receive an amount, known as “variation margin”, based on daily changes in the valuation of the swap contract. Payments received or paid by the Portfolio are recorded as realized gains or losses upon termination or maturity of the swap. Risk of loss may exceed amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Swap agreements outstanding at period end, if any, are listed on the Schedule of Investments.

Interest Rate Swaps:    Interest rate swaps represent agreements between counterparties to exchange cash flows based on the difference between two interest rates, applied to a notional principal amount for a specified period. Certain Portfolios used interest rate swaps to either maintain their ability to generate steady cash flow by receiving a stream of fixed rate payments or to increase exposure to prevailing market rates by receiving floating rate payments using interest rate swap contracts. Certain Portfolios are subject to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. A Portfolio’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty over the contract’s remaining life.

Credit Default Swaps:    Credit default swaps (“CDS”) involve one party (the protection buyer) making a stream of payments to another party (the protection seller) in exchange for the right to receive a specified payment in the event of a default or as a result of a default (collectively a “credit event”) for the referenced entity (typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country) on its obligation; or in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising a credit index.

Certain Portfolios are subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. Certain Portfolios may enter into credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default or the reference entity’s credit soundness. CDS contracts generally trade based on a spread which represents the cost a protection buyer has to pay the protection seller. The protection buyer is said to be short the credit as the value of the contract rises the more the credit deteriorates. The value of the CDS contract increases for the protection buyer if the spread increases. A Portfolios’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk for purchased credit default swaps is the inability of the counterparty to honor the contract up to the notional value due to a credit event.

As a seller of protection on credit default swap agreements, the Portfolio generally receives an agreed upon payment from the buyer of protection throughout the term of the swap, provided no credit event occurs. As the seller, the Portfolio effectively increases its investment risk because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio may be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

The maximum amount of the payment that a Portfolio as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be equal to the notional amount of the underlying security or index contract as a result of a credit event. These potential amounts will be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements which the Portfolio entered into for the same referenced entity or index. As a buyer of protection, the Portfolio generally receives an amount up to the notional value of the swap if a credit event occurs.

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements on corporate or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end are disclosed in the footnotes to the Schedule of Investments, if applicable. These spreads serve as indicators of the current

 

B5


status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of default risk 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 required to enter into the agreement. For credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values serve as indicators of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increased market value 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 of risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

Currency Swaps:    Certain Portfolios entered into currency swap agreements primarily to gain yield exposure on foreign bonds. Currency swap agreements involve two parties exchanging two different currencies with an agreement to reverse the exchange at a later date at specified exchange rates.

Master Netting Arrangements:    Certain Portfolios are subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. These are arrangements which a sub-adviser may have negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Portfolio. For multi-sleeve Portfolios, different sub-advisors who manage their respective sleeve, may enter into such agreements with the same counterparty and are disclosed separately for each sleeve when presenting information about offsetting and related netting arrangements for OTC derivatives under the FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-01 disclosure. A master netting arrangement between the Portfolio and the counterparty permits the Portfolio to offset amounts payable by the Portfolio to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Portfolio to cover the Portfolio’s exposure to the counterparty. However, there is no assurance that such mitigating factors are easily enforceable. The right to set-off exists when all the conditions are met such that each of the parties owes the other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set-off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, the reporting party intends to set-off and the right of set-off is enforceable by law. During the reporting period, there were no instances where the right of set-off existed and management has not elected to offset.

Certain Portfolios are parties to ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.) Master Agreements with certain counterparties that govern over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts entered into from time to time. The Master Agreements may contain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. With respect to certain counterparties, in accordance with the terms of the Master Agreements, collateral posted to the Portfolio is held in a segregated account by the Portfolio’s custodian, and with respect to those amounts which can be sold or re-pledged, are presented in the Schedule of Investments. Collateral pledged by the Portfolio is segregated by the Portfolio’s custodian and identified in the Schedule of Investments. Collateral can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. Government or related agencies or other securities as agreed to by the Portfolio and the applicable counterparty. Collateral requirements are determined based on the Portfolio’s net position with each counterparty. Termination events applicable to the Portfolio may occur upon a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a specified threshold over a certain period of time. Termination events applicable to counterparties may occur upon a decline in the counterparty’s long-term and short-term credit ratings below a specified level. In each case, upon occurrence, the other party may elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all derivative and foreign exchange contracts outstanding, including the payment of any losses and costs resulting from such early termination, as reasonably determined by the terminating party. Any decision by one or more of the Portfolio’s counterparties to elect early termination could impact the Portfolio’s future derivative activity.

In addition to each instrument’s primary underlying risk exposure (e.g. interest rate, credit, equity or foreign exchange, etc.), swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk. Such risks involve the possibility that no liquid market for these agreements will exist, the counterparty to the agreement may default on its obligation to perform or disagree on the contractual terms of the agreement, and changes in net interest rates will be unfavorable. In connection with these agreements, securities in the portfolio may be identified or received as collateral from the counterparty in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide or receive assets of value and to serve as recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency of either party. Such over-the-counter derivative agreements include conditions which, when materialized, give the counterparty the right to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements. Any election by the counterparty for early termination of the contract(s) may impact the amounts reported on financial statements.

 

B6


As of December 31, 2014, none of the Portfolios have met conditions under such agreements which give the counterparty the right to call for an early termination.

Forward currency contracts, written options, short sales, swaps and financial futures contracts involve elements of both market and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks may be mitigated by engaging in master netting arrangements.

Warrants and Rights:    Certain Portfolios hold warrants and rights acquired either through a direct purchase, included as part of a private placement, or pursuant to corporate actions. Warrants and rights entitle the holder to buy a proportionate amount of common stock, or such other security that the issuer may specify, at a specific price and time through the expiration dates. Such warrants and rights are held as long positions by the Portfolio until exercised, sold or expired. Warrants and rights are valued at fair value in accordance with the Board approved fair valuation procedures.

Securities Lending:    Each Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to banks and broker-dealers. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Collateral pledged by each borrower is invested in a highly liquid short-term money market and is marked to market daily, based on the previous day’s market value, such that the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the loaned securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolio. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Portfolio securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Portfolio has the right to repurchase the securities in the open market using the collateral. The Portfolio recognizes income, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees, for lending its securities, and any interest on the investment of cash received as collateral. The Portfolio also continues to receive interest and dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the securities loaned and recognizes any unrealized gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan.

Dollar Rolls:    Certain Portfolios enter into mortgage dollar rolls in which the Portfolio sells mortgage securities for delivery in the current month, realizing a gain (loss), and simultaneously contracts to repurchase somewhat similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specified future date. During the roll period, the Portfolio forgoes principal and interest paid on the securities. The Portfolio is compensated by the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initial sale and by the lower repurchase price at the future date. The difference between the sales proceeds and the lower repurchase price is recorded as a realized gain. The Portfolio maintains a segregated account, the dollar value of which is at least equal to its obligations, with respect to dollar rolls.

When-Issued/Delayed Delivery Securities:    Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after trade date; interest income is not accrued until settlement date. At the time a Portfolio enters into such transactions, it instructs the custodian to segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of its when-issued or delayed-delivery purchase commitments.

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:    Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.

For Portfolios with multiple classes of shares, net investment income or loss (other than administration and distribution fees, which are charged to the respective class) and unrealized and realized gains or losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day.

Taxes:    For federal income tax purposes, each Portfolio is treated as a separate taxpaying entity. The Portfolios are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. No provision has been made in the financial statements for U.S. federal, state, or local taxes, as any tax liability arising from operations of the Portfolios is the responsibility of the Portfolios’ shareholders (Participating Insurance Companies). The Portfolios are not generally subject to entity-level taxation. Shareholders of each Portfolio are subject to taxes on their distributive share of partnership items.

Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations.

 

B7


Distributions:    Distributions from each Portfolio are made in cash and automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same Portfolio. The Money Market Portfolio declares and reinvests distributions, if any, daily. Distributions are recorded on the ex-date.

Estimates:    The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Note 6:   Tax Information

All Portfolios are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. The character of the cash distributions made by the partnerships is generally classified as return of capital nontaxable distributions. After each fiscal year each partner will receive information regarding their distributive allocable share of the partnership’s income, gains, losses and deductions.

With respect to the Portfolios, book cost of assets differs from tax cost of assets as a result of each Portfolio’s adoption of a mark to market method of accounting for tax purposes. Under this method, tax cost of assets will approximate its fair market value. The Portfolios generally attempt to manage their diversification in a manner that supports the diversification requirements of the underlying separate accounts.

Management has analyzed the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements for the current period. The Portfolios’ federal, state and local income tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

 

Note 7:   Capital

The Series Fund offers Class I and Class II shares. Neither Class I nor Class II shares of a Portfolio are subject to any sales charge or redemption charge and are sold at the net asset value of the Portfolio. Class I shares are sold only to certain separate accounts of Prudential to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (“contracts”). Class II shares are sold only to separate accounts of non-Prudential insurance companies as investment options under certain contracts. The separate accounts invest in shares of the Series Fund through subaccounts that correspond to the Portfolios. The separate accounts will redeem shares of the Series Fund to the extent necessary to provide benefits under the contracts or for such other purposes as may be consistent with the contracts. As of December 31, 2014, the Equity, Jennison, Natural Resources and Value Portfolios have Class II shares outstanding.

The Portfolios (excluding the Money Market Portfolio), along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), are a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 9, 2014 through October 8, 2015. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .075% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to October 9, 2014, the Funds had another SCA that provided a commitment of $900 million and the Funds paid an

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Conservative Balanced Portfolio, Diversified Bond Portfolio, Equity Portfolio, Flexible Managed Portfolio, Global Portfolio, Government Income Portfolio, High Yield Bond Portfolio, Jennison Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, Natural Resources Portfolio, Small Capitalization Stock Portfolio, Stock Index Portfolio and Value Portfolio (hereafter referred to as the “Portfolios”), each a portfolio of The Prudential Series Fund, including the schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolios’ 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 Portfolios as of December 31, 2014, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the periods described in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

For the year ended December 31, 2014 the SP International Growth Portfolio Class I returned -5.71% and the Class II
returned -6.12%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $81.4 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are William Blair & Company, Jennison Associates LLC, and Neuberger Berman Management LLC.

The MSCI EAFE (GD) Index (the Index) declined by 4.48% for the year. Losses were common among developed market countries due to the decline in foreign currencies, including the euro, versus the U.S. dollar. The dollar continues to advance due to a stronger U.S. economy and the ending of U.S. quantitative easing. Investors anticipated interest rates hikes in 2015, while weaker areas of the world are forecasted to either continue or to expand monetary policy. In terms of economic sectors, health care and utilities had positive returns, even in dollars, while the technology sector’s decline in dollars was relatively modest. The materials and energy sectors trailed as the price of oil dropped precipitously at the end of the year.

The Portfolio’s assets in the consumer discretionary sector had the largest negative impact on its performance relative to the Index, as Europe’s economy struggled and growth continued to slow in China and the rest of Asia. When the economies in these continents turn around, consumers are expected to spend more, but as of year-end, that was not the case. Since consumer discretionary stocks have high growth potential in an economic turnaround, it is not surprising that the subadvisers invested in this sector.

Allocations to emerging markets countries, which are not in the Index, mitigated the negative returns. Specifically, allocations to China, South Africa, Indonesia, Philippines, and India all significantly enhanced the Portfolio’s returns as emerging markets rebounded following a poor 2013. All three subadvisers routinely invest in emerging markets stocks, as they have found significant growth opportunities there.

In addition, allocations to various economic sectors also contributed to the Portfolio’s relative performance. International technology and health care stocks benefited, while the drop in oil prices led to declines in materials and energy prices. All three subadvisers are looking for companies with higher growth rates and strong balance sheets, so they were overweight in the technology sector and underweight in energy companies, which tend to have lower growth rates and more leveraged balance sheets.

From a country perspective, both William Blair and Jennison showed strong stock selection in Japan and China, also helping returns.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the SP International Value Portfolio returned -6.04%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $83.3 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are LSV Asset Management (LSV) and Lazard Asset Management, LLC. Thornburg Investment Management subadvised the Portfolio until its replacement by Lazard Asset Management, LLC in November.

The MSCI EAFE Index (GD) (the “Index”) fell by 4.48%. International investors in the value style had a more difficult time outperforming the Index than did international growth managers. The period was shaped by the steep fall in oil prices and the strengthening U.S. dollar, which had a negative impact on emerging economies, as well as by the increasing divergence in monetary policies among various countries’ central banks. In addition to the setbacks in the energy sector (which fell 18%), the Index’s slide was dominated by its financials sector; it makes up a quarter of the Index by capitalization and fell more than five percentage points. Most value managers were overweight in these sectors.

The Portfolio’s underperformance of the Index was largely due to mixed stock selection results. Its strength in the industrials sector was shown particularly by outperforming the Index in road & rail and airlines stocks. Gains in health care were largely driven by holdings in the pharmaceuticals industry. Conversely, the Portfolio’s relative performance was hindered by its stock selection in the consumer discretionary, consumer staples, materials, and utilities sectors. From a regional perspective, holdings in Western Europe, notably France, Germany, and the United Kingdom also detracted from relative performance.

A small, yet consistent, allocation to cash, held to assist with day-to-day cash flow management, had a slight negative impact on performance during the period.

From time-to-time, Thornburg would use currency forwards (a form of a derivative security) as a tool to hedge some of the currency risk from investing in non-U.S. stocks. This intermittent hedging strategy is not expected to have a significant impact on the performance of the overall Portfolio. Overall for 2014, foreign exchange hedging had a positive effect on the Portfolio.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the SP Prudential U.S. Emerging Growth Portfolio Class I returned 9.51% and Class II returned 9.15%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $250.0 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio’s subadviser is Jennison Associates LLC.

The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index (the Index), which advanced 11.90%. Stock selection in the energy and materials sectors detracted the most from relative results.

Energy names dominated the Portfolio’s largest detractors, including Noble Energy (NBL), Denbury Resources, Laredo Petroleum, and Whiting Petroleum. Laredo and Whiting were hurt primarily by their higher degree of financial leverage. Company-specific issues affected shares of exploration and production companies Denbury Resources and NBL. Denbury Resources reported disappointing production growth and lowered guidance for the year, as well as delayed plans for the formation of a master limited partnership. The Portfolio no longer holds a position in Denbury Resources. In addition to suffering the effects of the collapse in oil prices, Noble Energy has experienced delays with an agreement that, if signed, could lessen some of the seasonal swings experienced in NBL’s Israel gas production. This would likely help pricing given that Noble’s export agreements are higher than domestic prices. The Portfolio maintains a position in the stock.

The Portfolio’s investment process has not changed with the recent volatility in the energy sector. Jennison has met individually with the energy companies owned by the Portfolio, or have identified as potential candidates, in an attempt to identify the best long-term opportunities. The Portfolio’s current energy exposure is neutral to the Index and production cuts are being closely monitored.

Stock selection in consumer discretionary and information technology drove absolute and relative gain. Electronic Arts, F5 Networks, and Red Hat were standouts in information technology. Electronic Arts is moving faster than expected into digital downloads, which, in Jennison’s opinion, should drive future revenue growth.

Dollar Tree, O’Reilly Automotive, and L Brands led performance in the consumer discretionary sector. Consumer discretionary lagged over the last few quarters and the Portfolio benefited from a rebound in several companies, especially in retail, toward the end of the year. Within consumer discretionary, the Portfolio remains underweight relative to the Index, although less so than for most of 2014. Jennison believes the favorable U.S. economic outlook and lower energy prices are supportive of a number of key holdings in retailing, but the Portfolio’s underweight is largely due to under-exposure to media, where threats continue from the shift in user viewing habits and advertising spending away from traditional broadcast/cable TV.

United Continental holdings also performed well as airlines significantly outperformed the industrials sector and the overall market. Earnings, revenue, and guidance were solid as cost cuts and higher pricing took hold. United further announced a share buyback and appears on track to achieve several key revenue initiatives, including improvements to capacity management on Asian flights.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the SP Small Cap Value Portfolio returned 4.94%.

The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $217.1 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio’s subadvisers are Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (Goldman) and ClearBridge Advisors, LLC (ClearBridge).

The Russell 2000 Value Index (the Index) rose 4.22%. In the U.S. market, large cap stocks substantially outperformed shares of smaller firms, in part because small caps began the year with higher prices (valuations). Among Russell small cap indexes, value shares slightly trailed growth. In an improving economy small cap and growth stocks often lead, but this was dampened by the relatively high valuations of smaller firms at the start of the period and by continuing uncertainty about future growth. About 40% of the Index comprises the financials sector, which outperformed and posted a respectable annual return. However, the Index was constrained by the sharply negative return of its energy sector, driven by the precipitous fall in the prices of carbon fuels, and by smaller declines in health care and materials.

Good broad-based stock selection within sectors was the main reason for the Portfolio’s relative outperformance in 2014. Stocks that contributed the most to the year’s gains were in the industrials (especially commercial services and supplies), consumer staples, and technology sectors. Sector allocation, however, detracted from relative results as the Portfolio’s underexposure to utilities and REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) served as a headwind, as investors moved to these investments because of their historically higher income in the form of interest and dividends.

The Portfolio also benefited from an overweight compared with the Index in the larger companies within its universe, those with a weighted-average market capitalization above $1.5 billion. Investors substantially preferred the relative safety and liquidity of these shares over the smaller end of the capitalization range.

Of the two subadvisers, ClearBridge trailed the Index, especially in the fourth quarter. While stock selection was a modest advantage for ClearBridge in 2014, its large underweights in REITs and utilities hurt its relative performance.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

Fees and Expenses — unaudited

  December 31, 2014

 

As a contract owner investing in Portfolios of the Fund through a variable annuity or variable life contract, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other investment options. This example does not reflect fees and charges under your variable annuity or variable life contract. If contract charges were included, the costs shown below would be higher. Please consult the prospectus for your contract for more information about contract fees and charges.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the Portfolio 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 line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the Portfolio expenses you paid on your account during this period. As noted above, the table does not reflect variable contract fees and charges.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 the Portfolio and other investment options. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other investment options.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any contract fees and charges, such as sales charges (loads), insurance charges or administrative charges. Therefore the second line of the table is useful to compare ongoing investment option costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different contracts. In addition, if these contract fee and charges were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND

 

Note 1:   General

The Prudential Series Fund (“Series Fund”), organized as a Delaware statutory trust, is a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (“1940 Act”). The Series Fund is composed of eighteen Portfolios (“Portfolio” or “Portfolios”), each with separate series shares. The information presented in these financial statements pertains to the four Portfolios which are listed below along with each Portfolio’s investment objective.

SP International Growth Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

SP International Value Portfolio:    Long-term capital appreciation.

SP Prudential U.S. Emerging Growth Portfolio:    Long-term capital appreciation.

SP Small Cap Value Portfolio:    Long-term growth of capital.

 

Note 2:   Accounting Policies

The Series Fund follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Series Fund and the Portfolios consistently follow such policies in the preparation of their financial statements.

Securities Valuation:    Each Portfolio holds securities and other assets that are fair valued at the close of each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted Valuation Procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to Prudential Investments LLC (“PI” or “Manager”). Under the current Valuation Procedures, the established Valuation Committee is responsible for supervising the valuation of portfolio securities and other assets. The Valuation Procedures permit a Portfolio to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly-scheduled quarterly meeting.

Various inputs determine how each Portfolio’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the table following each Portfolio’s Schedule of Investments.

Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments such as futures or options that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price, they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the inputs are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation.

Common and preferred stocks traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued using pricing vendor services that provide model prices derived using adjustment factors based on information such as local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, depositary receipts, and futures, as applicable. Securities valued using such model prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the adjustment factors are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation. Such securities are valued using model prices to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. If the confidence level is not met or the vendor does not provide a model price, securities are valued in accordance with exchange-traded common and preferred stocks discussed above.

 

B1


Investments in open-end, non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Fixed income securities traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors provide these prices after evaluating observable inputs including, but not limited to yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations, and reported trades. Securities valued using such vendor prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Over-the-counter derivative instruments are generally valued using pricing vendor services, which derive the valuation based on inputs such as underlying asset prices, indices, spreads, interest rates, and exchange rates. These instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that significant unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the investment adviser regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities:    Subject to guidelines adopted by the Board, each Portfolio may hold up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, including those which are restricted as to disposition under securities law (“restricted securities”). Restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, cannot be sold within seven days in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which the Portfolio has valued the investment. Therefore, the Portfolio may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its Subadvisor and may incur expenses that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable. Certain securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, may be deemed liquid by the Portfolio’s Subadvisor under the guidelines adopted by the Board. However, the liquidity of the Portfolio’s investments in Rule 144A securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.

Foreign Currency Translation:    The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

(i)  market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the current daily rates of exchange;

(ii)  purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets of the Portfolios are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Portfolios do not 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 long-term securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Portfolios do not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, these realized foreign currency gains or losses are included in the reported net realized gains or losses on investment transactions.

 

B2


Net realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from holdings of foreign currencies, forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Portfolios’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains or losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies.

Concentration of Risk:    The ability of debt securities issuers (other than those issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government) held by the Portfolios to meet their obligations may be affected by the economic or political developments in a specific industry, region or country. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of political and economic instability or the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets.

Forward Currency Contracts:    A forward currency contract is a commitment between two parties to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Certain Portfolios of the Series Fund entered into forward currency contracts in order to hedge their exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on their foreign portfolio holdings or specific receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency and to gain exposure to certain currencies. The contracts are valued daily at current exchange rates and any unrealized gain or loss is included in net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currencies. Gain or loss is realized on the settlement date of the contract equal to the difference between the settlement value of the original and negotiated forward contracts. This gain or loss, if any, is included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions. Upon entering into these contracts, risks may arise from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Forward currency contracts involve risks from currency exchange rate and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A Portfolio’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the net value of the cash flows to be received from the counterparty at the end of the contract’s life.

Master Netting Arrangements:    Certain Portfolios are subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. These are agreements which a sub-advisor may have negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Portfolio. For multi-sleeve Portfolios, different sub-advisors who manage their respective sleeve, may enter into such agreements with the same counterparty and are disclosed separately for each sleeve when presenting information about offsetting and related netting arrangements for over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives under FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-01 disclosure. A master netting arrangement between the Portfolio and the counterparty permits the Portfolio to offset amounts payable by the Portfolio to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Portfolio to cover the Portfolio’s exposure to the counterparty. However, there is no assurance that such mitigating factors are easily enforceable. The right to set-off exists when all the conditions are met such that each of the parties owes the other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set-off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, the reporting party intends to set-off and the right of set-off is enforceable by law. During the reporting period, there were no instances where the right of set-off existed and management has not elected to offset.

Warrants and Rights:    Certain Portfolios hold warrants and rights acquired either through a direct purchase, included as part of a private placement, or pursuant to corporate actions. Warrants and rights entitle the holder to buy a proportionate amount of common stock, or such other security that the issuer may specify, at a specific price and time through the expiration dates. The Portfolio holds such warrants and rights as long positions until exercised, sold or expired. Warrants and rights are valued at fair value in accordance with the Board approved fair valuation procedures.

Securities Lending:    Each Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to banks and broker-dealers. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Collateral pledged by each borrower is invested in a highly liquid short-term money market fund and is marked to market daily, based on the previous day’s market value, such that the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the loaned securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolio. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Portfolio securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Portfolio has the right to repurchase the securities in

 

B3


the open market using the collateral. The Portfolio recognizes income, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees, for lending its securities, and any interest on the investment of cash received as collateral. The Portfolio also continues to receive interest and dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the securities loaned and recognizes any unrealized gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan.

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:    Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management, that may differ from actual.

For Portfolios with multiple classes of shares, net investment income or loss (other than administration and distribution fees which are charged directly to the respective class) and unrealized and realized gains or losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day.

Delayed-Delivery Transactions:    Certain Portfolios may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment by the Portfolio to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield, with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period. When delayed-delivery purchases are outstanding, the Portfolio will set aside and maintain an amount of liquid assets sufficient to meet the purchase price in a segregated account until the settlement date. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. The Portfolio may dispose of or renegotiate a delayed-delivery transaction subsequent to establishment, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may result in a capital gain or loss. When selling a security on a delayed-delivery basis, the Portfolio forfeits its eligibility to realize future gains and losses with respect to the security.

Taxes:    For federal income tax purposes, each Portfolio is treated as a separate taxpaying entity. The Portfolios are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. No provision has been made in the financial statements for U.S. federal, state, or local taxes, as any tax liability arising from operations of the Portfolios is the responsibility of the Portfolios’ shareholders (Participating Insurance Companies). The Portfolios are not generally subject to entity-level taxation. Shareholders of each Portfolio are subject to taxes on their distributive share of partnership items.

Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations. Such taxes are accrued net of reclaimable amounts at the time the related income/gain is recorded.

Distributions:    Distributions from each Portfolio are made in cash and automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same Portfolio. Distributions are recorded on the ex-date.

Estimates:    The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Note 6:   Tax Information

All Portfolios are treated as a partnership for tax purposes. The character of the cash distributions made by the partnerships is generally classified as return of capital nontaxable distributions. After each fiscal year each partner will receive information regarding their distributive allocable share of the partnership’s income, gains, losses and deductions.

With respect to the Portfolios, book cost of assets differs from tax cost of assets as a result of each Portfolio’s adoption of a mark to market method of accounting for tax purposes. Under this method, tax cost of assets will approximate its fair market value. The Portfolios generally attempt to manage their diversification in a manner that supports the diversification requirements of the underlying separate accounts.

Management has analyzed the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax would be required in the Portfolio’s financial statements for the current period. The Portfolios’ federal, state and local income tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

 

Note 7:   Capital

The Series Fund offers Class I and Class II shares. Neither Class I nor Class II shares of a Portfolio are subject to any sales charge or redemption charge and are sold at the net asset value of the Portfolio. Class I shares are sold only to certain separate accounts of Prudential to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (“contracts”). Class II shares are sold only to separate accounts of non-Prudential insurance companies as investment options under certain contracts. The separate accounts invest in shares of the Series Fund through subaccounts that correspond to the Portfolio. The separate accounts will redeem shares of the Series Fund to the extent necessary to provide benefits under the contracts or for such other purposes as may be consistent with the contracts. As of December 31, 2014, the SP International Growth and SP Prudential U.S. Emerging Growth Portfolios have Class II shares outstanding.

Note 8:   Borrowings

The Portfolios, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), are a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 9, 2014 through October 8, 2015. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .075% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to October 9, 2014, the Funds had another SCA that provided a commitment of $900 million and the Funds paid an annualized commitment fee of .08% of the unused portion of the SCA. Interest on any borrowings under the SCA is paid at contracted market rates. The commitment fee for the unused amount is accrued daily and paid quarterly.

The following Portfolio utilized the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2014. The average balance outstanding is for the number of days the Portfolio had utilized the credit facility.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of SP International Growth Portfolio, SP International Value Portfolio, SP Prudential U.S. Emerging Growth Portfolio and SP Small Cap Value Portfolio (hereafter referred to as the “Portfolios”), each a portfolio of the Prudential Series Fund, including the schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolios’ 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 Portfolios as of December 31, 2014, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the periods described in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Approval of New Subadvisory Agreement: SP International Value Portfolio

Approval of a New Subadvisory Agreement

As required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), the Board of Trustees (the Board) of The Prudential Series Fund considered a proposed subadvisory agreement (the Subadvisory Agreement) between Prudential Investments LLC (PI or the Manager) and Lazard for the SP International Value Portfolio (the Portfolio). The Subadvisory Agreement relates to the appointment of Lazard to replace Thornburg Investment Management, Inc. (Thornburg) as a subadviser for the Portfolio. The Board, including a majority of the trustees who were not parties to the Subadvisory Agreement and were not interested persons of those parties, as defined in the 1940 Act (the Independent Trustees), met on September 17-18, 2014 (the Board Meeting) and approved the Subadvisory Agreement for an initial two year period, after concluding that approval of the Subadvisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Portfolio and its beneficial shareholders.

In advance of the Board Meeting, the Board requested and received materials relating to the Subadvisory Agreement, and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its consideration.

In approving the Subadvisory Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Trustees advised by independent legal counsel, considered the factors it deemed relevant, including the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided to the Portfolio by Lazard; comparable performance information; the fees paid by the Manager to Lazard; the potential for economies of scale that may be shared with the Portfolio and its shareholders; and other benefits to Lazard. In connection with its deliberations, the Board considered information provided by the Manager and Lazard at or in advance of the Board Meeting. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the Board’s decision to approve the Subadvisory Agreement with respect to the Portfolio.

The Board determined that the overall arrangements between the Manager and Lazard are appropriate in light of the services to be performed and the fee arrangement under the Subadvisory Agreement and such other matters as the Board considered relevant in the exercise of its business judgment.

The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Boards reaching its determinations to approve the Subadvisory Agreement are separately discussed below.

Nature, Quality and Extent of Services

The Board received and considered information regarding the nature and extent of services provided to the International Value Portfolios by Thornburg and those that would be provided by Lazard under the proposed Subadvisory Agreement, noting that the nature and extent of services under the existing and new subadvisory agreements were generally similar in that Thornburg and Lazard were each required to provide day-to-day portfolio management services and comply with all portfolio policies and applicable rules and regulations.

With respect to the quality of services, the Board considered, among other things, the background and experience of the portfolio managers of Lazard. The Board was also provided with information pertaining to the organizational structure, senior management, investment operations, and other relevant information pertaining to Lazard. The Board noted that it received a favorable compliance report from the Chief Compliance Officer of The Prudential Series Fund as to Lazard.

The Board concluded that, based on the nature of the proposed services to be rendered, the background information that it reviewed about Lazard, it was reasonable to expect that it would be satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of investment subadvisory services to be provided to the Portfolio by Lazard.

Performance

The Board received and considered information regarding the investment performance of other accounts managed by Lazard utilizing an investment strategy similar to the strategy proposed for the Portfolio. The Board concluded that it was satisfied with the performance of Lazard.

Fee Rates

The Board considered the proposed contractual and effective subadvisory fee rates to be paid by the Manager to Lazard under the Subadvisory Agreement. The Board considered that based on the portion of the net assets managed by Thornburg as of August 14, 2014,


the effective subadvisory fee rate that would be paid to Lazard under the Subadvisory Agreement (i.e., 0.311%) was higher than the effective subadvisory fee rate paid to under Thornburg under the current subadvisory arrangements (i.e., 0.304%).

The Board noted that the subadvisory fees are paid by the Manager to the relevant subadviser(s) for a portfolio, and therefore any change in the subadvisory fee rate for the Portfolio will not change the investment management fee paid by the Portfolio or its shareholders. Instead, the increase in the effective subadvisory fee rate for the Portfolio will decrease the net investment management fee retained by the Manager. The Board also noted that it would review the management fee paid to the Manager by the Portfolio in connection with future annual reviews of advisory agreements. The Board concluded that the proposed subadvisory fees were reasonable.

Profitability

Because the engagement of Lazard is new, there was no historical profitability information with respect to the proposed subadvisory arrangement for the Portfolio. As a result, the Board did not consider this factor. The Board noted that it would consider profitability information as part of future annual reviews of advisory agreements.

Economies of Scale

The Board noted that the proposed subadvisory fee schedules for the Portfolio contained breakpoints that reduced the fee rates on assets above specified levels. The Board noted that it would consider economies of scale in connection with the annual reviews of advisory agreements.

Other Benefits to Lazard

The Board considered potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits anticipated to be received by Lazard in connection with the Portfolio. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by Lazard were consistent with those generally derived by other subadvisers to other portfolios of The Prudential Series Fund, and that those benefits are reviewed on an annual basis. The Board concluded that any potential benefits to be derived by Lazard included potential access to additional research resources, larger assets under management and reputational benefits, which were consistent with those generally derived by subadvisers to mutual funds. The Board noted that it would review ancillary benefits in connection with future annual reviews of advisory agreements.

***

After full consideration of these factors, the Board concluded that approving the Subadvisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Portfolio and its beneficial shareholders.

Past performance does not guarantee future returns. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the past performance data quoted.

Portfolio performance is net of investment fees and fund expenses, but not contract charges, which, if included, would significantly lower the performance quoted. The Russell 1000® Index is a trademark/service mark of the Frank Russell Company. Russell® is a trademark of the Frank Russell Company. Performance figures may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. In the absence of such fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, total returns would be lower.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Jennison 20/20 Focus Portfolio’s Class I returned 7.15% and Class II returned 6.70%. The net assets of the Portfolio at December 31, 2014 were $240.1 million.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Portfolio is subadvised by Jennison Associates LLC.

The Portfolio underperformed the S&P 500 (the Index), which returned 13.66%.

In the growth segment, stock selection in health care, led by Allergan and Illumina, as well as an overweight to the sector drove performance. Allergan advanced on a takeover bid and the strength of its business. (Allergan was acquired by Actavis in November.) Illumina’s gain reflected increasing demand for its next-generation gene-sequencing technology.

Other notable contributors to the growth sleeve’s total return included Apple and Facebook. Apple’s strong revenue and earnings reflected expanding global acceptance of its platform. Jennison expects that product updates, especially iPhone 6, will sustain attractive revenue growth in the medium term. Internet-based social platform Facebook reported strong revenue and earnings.

Conversely a combination of stock selection in and a substantial overweight to consumer discretionary was the largest source of relative weakness for the growth sleeve. Amazon.com’s earnings were constrained by increased business investment that is designed to drive unit growth in its core retail business and through digital commerce via the mobile market. Weakness in Industria de Diseño Textil, reflected currency translation issues due to the euro’s strength relative to many other currencies. The holding was sold.

Despite relative strength in the sector, Bristol-Myers Squibb was a detractor in health care. Shares fell on what the market regarded as disappointing initial safety and efficacy data from a Phase II study of experimental nivolumab (a PD-1 antibody) and approved melanoma treatment Yervoy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While Jennison likes Bristol’s overall immune-oncology program, the position was sold.

In the value segment, stock selection proved detrimental in most sectors, especially in energy and consumer staples. Avon was a laggard in the latter group although Jennison still considers Avon shares to be attractively valued.

Cobalt International, Noble Energy, and Halliburton drove results in energy. These holdings lagged as renewed fears of a global slowdown caused a sharp increase in the U.S. dollar and a rapid decline in many commodity prices, including oil and natural gas. Jennison still expects Halliburton to benefit from internal efficiency initiatives and its global operating footprint. Noble Energy should see sustained benefits from its balanced portfolio of assets, prudent cost management, and efficient use of capital. Cobalt was sold during the period.

The information technology sector contributed the most to the value sleeve’s relative gain due to a large overweight position and stock selection. Applied Materials and Flextronics were standouts. Jennison believes that Applied Materials is positioned to benefit from increased spending and the completion of its merger with Tokyo Electron. Flextronics International enjoyed strength across business segments and made continued progress in improving its efficiencies and productivity. Jennison expects potentially strong growth in its industrial and high reliability solutions businesses.

Prudential Investments LLC (PI), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., serves as the investment manager for the Portfolio.

 

1  The graph is based on the performance of Class I shares. Performance of Class II shares will be lower due to differences in the fee structure. Class II shares have associated 12b-1 and administrative fees at an annual rate of 0.25% and 0.15%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Class II shares.

Russell 1000® Index is an unmanaged market cap-weighted index that measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000 Index, which represents approximately 92% of the total market. S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged, market value-weighted index of 500 stocks generally representative of the broad stock market. These returns do not include the effect of any investment management expenses. These returns would have been lower if they included the effect of these expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in a market index. For a complete list of holdings, refer to the Schedule of Investments section of this report.

Jennison Associates LLC is a registered investment adviser and a Prudential Financial company.

Fees and Expenses — unaudited

  December 31, 2014

 

As a contract owner investing in Portfolios of the Fund through a variable annuity or variable life contract, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other investment options. This example does not reflect fees and charges under your variable annuity or variable life contract. If contract charges were included, the costs shown below would be higher. Please consult the prospectus for your contract for more information about contract fees and charges.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period July 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the Portfolio 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 line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the Portfolio expenses you paid on your account during this period. As noted above, the table does not reflect variable contract fees and charges.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 the Portfolio and other investment options. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other investment options.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any contract fees and charges, such as sales charges (loads), insurance charges or administrative charges. Therefore the second line of the table is useful to compare ongoing investment option costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different contracts. In addition, if these contract fee and charges were included, your costs would have been higher.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND

 

Note 1:   General

The Prudential Series Fund (“Series Fund”), organized as a Delaware statutory trust, is a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Series Fund is composed of eighteen Portfolios (“Portfolio” or “Portfolios”), each with separate series shares. The information presented in these financial statements pertains to Jennison 20/20 Focus Portfolio.

The Portfolio’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital.

 

Note 2:   Accounting Policies

The Series Fund follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Series Fund and the Portfolio consistently follow such policies in the preparation of their financial statements.

Securities Valuation:    The Portfolio holds securities and other assets that are fair valued at the close of each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted Valuation Procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to Prudential Investments LLC (“PI” or “Manager”). Under the current Valuation Procedures, the established Valuation Committee is responsible for supervising the valuation of portfolio securities and other assets. The Valuation Procedures permit the Portfolio to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly-scheduled quarterly meeting.

Various inputs determine how the Portfolio’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the table following the Schedule of Investments.

Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments such as futures or options that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price; they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the inputs are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation.

Common and preferred stocks traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued using pricing vendor services that provide model prices derived using adjustment factors based on information such as local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, depositary receipts, and futures, as applicable. Securities valued using such model prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the adjustment factors are observable and considered to be significant to the valuation. Such securities are valued using model prices to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. If the confidence level is not met or the vendor does not provide a model price, securities are valued in accordance with exchange-traded common and preferred stocks discussed above.

Investments in open-end, non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.

Fixed income securities traded in the over-the-counter market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors provide these prices after evaluating observable

 

B1


inputs including, but not limited to yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations, and reported trades. Securities valued using such vendor prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Over-the-counter derivative instruments are generally valued using pricing vendor services, which derive the valuation based on inputs such as underlying asset prices, indices, spreads, interest rates, and exchange rates. These instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.

Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that significant unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the investment adviser regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.

Foreign Currency Translation:    The books and records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

(i)  market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the current rates of exchange;

(ii)  purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets of the Portfolio are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Portfolio does not 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 held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Portfolio does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, these realized foreign currency gains or losses are included in the reported net realized gains or losses on investment transactions.

Net realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from holdings of foreign currencies, forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Portfolio’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains or losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies.

Concentration of Risk:    The ability of debt securities issuers (other than those issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government) held by the Portfolio to meet their obligations may be affected by the economic or political developments in a specific industry, region or country. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of political or economic instability or the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets.

Master Netting Arrangements:    The Portfolio may be subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. These are agreements which a sub-adviser may have negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Portfolio. For multi-sleeve Portfolios, different sub-advisers who manage their respective sleeve, may enter into such agreements with the same counterparty and are disclosed separately for each sleeve when presenting information about offsetting and related netting arrangements for OTC derivatives under the ASU 2013-01 disclosure. A master netting arrangement between the Portfolio and

 

B2


the counterparty permits the Portfolio to offset amounts payable by the Portfolio to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Portfolio to cover the Portfolio’s exposure to the counterparty. However, there is no assurance that such mitigating factors are easily enforceable. The right to set-off exists when all the conditions are met such that each of the parties owes the other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set-off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, the reporting party intends to set-off and the right of set-off is enforceable by law. During the reporting period, there were no instances where the right of set-off existed and management has not elected to offset.

Securities Lending:    The Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to banks and broker-dealers. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Collateral pledged by each borrower is invested in a highly liquid short-term money market fund and is marked to market daily, based on the previous day’s market value, such that the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the loaned securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolio. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Portfolio securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Portfolio has the right to repurchase the securities in the open market using the collateral. The Portfolio recognizes income, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees, for lending its securities in the form of fees or interest on the investment of any cash received as collateral. The Portfolio also continues to receive interest and dividends or amounts equivalent thereto, on the securities loaned and recognizes any unrealized gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan.

Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income:    Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis which may require the use of certain estimates by management, that may differ from actual.

Net investment income or loss (other than administration and distribution fees, which are charged to the respective class) and unrealized and realized gains or losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day.

Taxes:    For federal income tax purposes, each Portfolio in the Series Fund is treated as a separate taxpaying entity. The Portfolios are treated as partnerships for tax purposes. No provision has been made in the financial statements for U.S. Federal, state, or local taxes, as any tax liability arising from operations of the Portfolios is the responsibility of the Portfolios’ shareholders (Participating Insurance Companies). The Portfolios are not generally subject to entity-level taxation. Shareholders of each Portfolio are subject to taxes on their distributive share of partnership items.

Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolios’ understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and regulations.

Distributions:    Distributions from each Portfolio are made in cash and automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same Portfolio. Distributions are recorded on the ex-date.

Estimates:    The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Note 3:   Agreements

The Portfolio has a management agreement with PI. Pursuant to this agreement PI has responsibility for all investment advisory services and supervises the subadviser’s performance of such services. PI has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Jennison Associates LLC (“Jennison”) (the “Subadviser”), under which Jennison provides investment advisory services for the Portfolio. PI pays for the services of the Subadviser, cost of compensation of officers of the Portfolio, occupancy and certain clerical and administrative expenses of the Portfolio. The Portfolio bears all other costs and expenses.

The management fee paid to PI is accrued daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of .75% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.

 

B3


The Portfolio has a distribution agreement, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS”), which acts as the distributor of the Class I and Class II shares of the Portfolio. The Portfolio compensates PIMS for distributing and servicing the Portfolio’s Class II shares pursuant to a plan of distribution (the “Class II Plan”), regardless of expenses actually incurred by PIMS. The distribution fees are accrued daily and payable monthly. No distribution or service fees are paid to PIMS as distributor of the Class I shares of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the Class II Plan, the Class II shares of the Portfolio compensate PIMS for distribution-related activities at an annual rate of .25% of the average daily net assets of the Class II shares.

The Portfolio has an administration agreement with PI, which acts as the administrator of the Class II shares of the Portfolio. The administration fee paid to PI is accrued daily and payable monthly, at the annual rate of .15% of the average daily net assets of the Class II shares.

PIMS, PI and Jennison are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“Prudential”).

The Portfolio has entered into a brokerage commission recapture agreement with certain registered broker-dealers. Under the brokerage commission recapture program, a portion of the commission is returned to the Portfolio on whose behalf the trades were made. Commission recapture is paid solely to those Portfolios generating the applicable trades. Such amounts are included with realized gain or loss on investment transactions presented in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 2014, brokerage commission recaptured under these agreements was $27,961.

 

Note 4:   Other Transactions with Affiliates

Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC (“PMFS”), an affiliate of PI and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, serves as the Portfolio’s transfer agent. Transfer agent’s fees and expenses in the Statement of Operations include certain out-of-pocket expenses paid to non-affiliates, where applicable. Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, serves as the Portfolio’s security lending agent. For the year ended December 31, 2014, PIM was compensated $8,693 for these services by the Jennison 20/20 Focus Portfolio.

The Portfolio invests in the Prudential Core Taxable Money Market Fund (the “Core Fund”), a portfolio of the Prudential Investment Portfolios 2, registered under the 1940 Act and managed by PI. Earnings from the Core Fund are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as affiliated dividend income.

 

Note 5:   Portfolio Securities

The aggregate cost of purchases and the proceeds from the sales of securities (excluding government securities and short-term issues) for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $232,278,407 and $254,999,041, respectively.

 

Note 6:   Tax Information

The Portfolio is treated as a partnership for tax purposes. The character of the cash distributions made by the partnership is generally classified as return of capital nontaxable distributions. After each fiscal year each partner will receive information regarding their distributive allocable share of the partnership’s income, gains, losses and deductions.

With respect to the Portfolio, book cost of assets differs from tax cost of assets as a result of the Portfolio’s adoption of a mark to market method of accounting for tax purposes. Under this method, tax cost of assets will approximate its fair market value.

Management has analyzed the Portfolio’s tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolio’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Portfolio’s federal, state and local income tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

 

Note 7:   Capital

The Series Fund offers Class I and Class II shares. Neither Class I nor Class II shares of a Portfolio are subject to any sales charge or redemption charge and are sold at the net asset value of the Portfolio. Class I

 

B4


shares are sold only to certain separate accounts of Prudential to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (“contracts”). Class II shares are sold only to separate accounts of non-Prudential insurance companies as investment options under certain contracts. The separate accounts invest in shares of the Series Fund through subaccounts that correspond to the Portfolios. The separate accounts will redeem shares of the Series Fund to the extent necessary to provide benefits under the contracts or for such other purposes as may be consistent with the contracts.

(a) Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of a share on the first day and a sale on the last day of each year reported and includes reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the effect of insurance contract charges. Total return does not reflect expenses associated with the separate account such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges which, if reflected, would reduce the total returns for all years shown. Performance figures may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. In the absence of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would be lower. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Total returns may reflect adjustments to conform to generally accepted accounting principles.

 

(b) Does not include expenses of the underlying portfolios in which the Portfolio invests.

 

(c) Calculated based upon average shares outstanding during the year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS

THE PRUDENTIAL SERIES FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Jennison 20/20 Focus Portfolio (hereafter referred to as the “Portfolio”), a portfolio of The Prudential Series Fund, including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2014, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolio’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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 Portfolio as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods described in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

THE PRUDENTIAL MUTUAL FUNDS

AUDIT COMMITTEE POLICY

on

Pre-Approval of Services Provided by the Independent Accountants

The Audit Committee of each Prudential Mutual Fund is charged with the responsibility to monitor the independence of the Fund’s independent accountants. As part of this responsibility, the Audit Committee must pre-approve any independent accounting firm’s engagement to render audit and/or permissible non-audit services, as required by law. In evaluating a proposed engagement of the independent accountants, the Audit Committee will assess the effect that the engagement might reasonably be expected to have on the accountant’s independence. The Committee’s evaluation will be based on:

 

    a review of the nature of the professional services expected to be provided,

 

    a review of the safeguards put into place by the accounting firm to safeguard independence, and

 

    periodic meetings with the accounting firm.

Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds

On an annual basis, the scope of audits for each Fund, audit fees and expenses, and audit-related and non-audit services (and fees proposed in respect thereof) proposed to be performed by the Fund’s independent accountants will be presented by the Treasurer and the independent accountants to the Audit Committee for review and, as appropriate, approval prior to the initiation of such services. Such presentation shall be accompanied by confirmation by both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants. Proposed services shall be described in sufficient detail to enable the Audit Committee to assess the appropriateness of such services and fees, and the compatibility of the provision of such services with the auditor’s independence. The Committee shall receive periodic reports on the progress of the audit and other services which are approved by the Committee or by the Committee Chair pursuant to authority delegated in this Policy.

The categories of services enumerated under “Audit Services”, “Audit-related Services”, and “Tax Services” are intended to provide guidance to the Treasurer and the independent accountants as to those categories of services which the Committee believes are generally consistent with the independence of the independent accountants and which the Committee (or the Committee Chair) would expect upon the presentation of specific proposals to pre-approve. The enumerated categories are not intended as an exclusive list of audit, audit-related or tax services, which the Committee (or the Committee Chair) would consider for pre-approval.

  Ø   Accounting consultations

 

  Ø   Fund merger support services

 

  Ø   Agreed Upon Procedure Reports

 

  Ø   Attestation Reports

 

  Ø   Other Internal Control Reports

Individual audit-related services that fall within one of these categories and are not presented to the Audit Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair (or any other Committee member on whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $50,000.

Other Non-audit Services

Certain non-audit services that the independent accountants are legally permitted to render will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee or by one or more Committee members to whom the Committee has delegated this authority and who will report to the full Committee any pre-approval decisions made pursuant to this Policy. Non-audit services presented for pre-approval pursuant to this paragraph will be accompanied by a confirmation from both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants.

Pre-approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to Other Entities Within the Prudential Fund Complex

Certain non-audit services provided to Prudential Investments LLC or any of its affiliates that also provide ongoing services to the Prudential Mutual Funds will be subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The only non-audit services provided to these entities that will require pre-approval are those related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds. Individual projects that are not presented to the Audit Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair (or any other Committee member on whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $50,000. Services presented for pre-approval pursuant to this paragraph will be accompanied by a confirmation from both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants.

Although the Audit Committee will not pre-approve all services provided to Prudential Investments LLC and its affiliates, the Committee will receive an annual report from the Fund’s independent accounting firm showing the aggregate fees for all services provided to Prudential Investments and its affiliates.
