Dear Shareholder:
We hope you find the semiannual report for the Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund informative and useful. The report covers performance for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2014.
We recognize that ongoing market volatility may make it a difficult time to be an investor. We continue to believe a prudent response to uncertainty is to maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals.
Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. Keep in mind, however, that diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Prudential Investments® is dedicated to helping you solve your toughest investment challenges—whether it’s capital growth, reliable income, or protection from market volatility and other risks. We offer the expertise of Prudential Financial’s affiliated asset managers* that strive to be leaders in a broad range of funds to help you stay on course to the future you envision. They also manage money for major corporations and pension funds around the world, which means you benefit from the same expertise, innovation, and attention to risk demanded by today’s most sophisticated investors.
Thank you for choosing the Prudential Investments family of funds.
Sincerely,

Fees and Expenses (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemptions, as applicable, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses, as applicable. 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 mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on November 1, 2013, at the beginning of the period, and held through the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. The example is for illustrative purposes only; you should consult the Prospectus for information on initial and subsequent minimum investment requirements.
Actual Expenses
The first line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The Fund’s transfer agent may charge additional fees to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table on the following page. These fees apply to individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Section 403(b) accounts. As of the close of the six-month period covered by the table, IRA fees included an annual maintenance fee of $15 per account (subject to a maximum annual maintenance fee of $25 for all accounts held by the same shareholder). Section 403(b) accounts are charged an annual $25 fiduciary maintenance fee. Some of the fees may vary in amount, or may be waived, based on your total account balance or the number of Prudential Investments funds, including the Fund, that you own. You should consider
| | | | |
Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund | | | 5 | |
Fees and Expenses (continued)
the additional fees that were charged to your Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value, as these additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the expense table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line for each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

*Fund expenses (net of fee waivers or subsidies, if any) for each share class are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each share class (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the 181 days in the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, and divided by the 365 days in the Fund’s fiscal year ending October 31, 2014 (to reflect the six-month period). Expenses presented in the table include the expenses of any underlying portfolios in which the Fund may invest.

An amount of $66,320,310 was transferred from Level 1 into Level 2 at 4/30/14 as a result of fair valuing such foreign securities using third party vendor modeling tools. Such fair values are used to reflect the impact of significant market movements between the time at which the fund normally values its securities and the earlier closing of foreign markets.
Level 3 securities as presented in the table above are being fair valued using pricing methodologies approved by the Valuation Committee, 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 broker quotes adjusted for changes in yields of compariable U.S. Government and other securities using fixed income securities valuation model.

(Unaudited)
1. Organization
Prudential Investment Portfolios, Inc. 10 (the “Company”) is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (“1940 Act”). The Company was organized on March 5, 1997, as a Maryland Corporation. The Company operates as a series company. At April 30, 2014, the Company consisted of two diversified investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). The information presented in these financial statements pertains to Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund (the “Fund”). The investment objective of the Fund is income and capital appreciation.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements.
Security Valuation: The Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund’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 Portfolio of Investments.
Common stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments 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. 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 except for exchange-traded and cleared swaps which are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the prices marked at the official settle are not public.
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 asked prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an asked 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 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. Securities not valued using such model prices are valued in accordance with exchange- traded common 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.
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.
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
| | | | |
Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund | | | 23 | |
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited) continued
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 the guidelines adopted by the Board, the Fund may invest 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 Fund has valued the investment. Therefore, the Fund 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 Fund’s Subadviser under the guidelines adopted by the Directors of the Fund. However, the liquidity of the Fund’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 Fund 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 Fund are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Fund 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 Fund does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities sold during the period. Accordingly, 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 sales and maturities of short-term securities and 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 Fund’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 Fund to meet its 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 U.S. companies 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.
Options: The Fund purchased and wrote options in order to hedge against adverse market movements or fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates, with respect to securities which the Fund currently owns or intends to purchase. The Fund’s principal reason for writing options is to realize, through receipt of premiums, a greater current return than would be
| | | | |
Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund | | | 25 | |
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited) continued
realized on the underlying security alone. When the Fund purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (called) or purchased (put). As a result, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. The Fund, as 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 Fund since the exchanges’ clearinghouse acts as counterparty to all exchange-traded options and guarantees the options contracts against default.
Master Netting Arrangements: The Fund is subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. A master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty permits the Fund to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Fund to cover the Fund’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.
The Fund is a party to ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.) Master Agreements (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 Fund is held in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian and with respect to those amounts which can be sold or re-pledged, is presented in the Portfolio of Investments. Collateral pledged by the Fund is segregated by the Fund’s custodian and identified in the Portfolio 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 Fund and the applicable counterparty. Collateral requirements are determined based on the Fund’s net position with each counterparty. Termination events applicable to the Fund may occur upon a decline in the Fund’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 Fund’s counterparties to elect early termination could impact the Fund’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.
As of April 30, 2014, the Fund has not 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
| | | | |
Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund | | | 27 | |

(Unaudited) continued
reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks may be mitigated by engaging in master netting arrangements.
Securities Lending: The Fund 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 Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Fund securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Fund has the right to repurchase the securities using the collateral in the open market. The Fund 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 Fund 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.
Net investment income or loss (other than distribution fees which are charged directly to the respective class and transfer agency fees specific to Class Q shares which are charged to that share 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.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends, if any, from net investment income are declared and paid at least quarterly. These dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Net realized gains from investment transactions, if any, are distributed at least annually. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gains are reclassified to paid-in capital when they arise.
Taxes: For federal income tax purposes, each Fund in the Company is treated as a separate tax paying entity. It is the Funds’ policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income and capital gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are recorded net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.
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.
3. Agreements
The Fund has entered into investment management agreements with PI which provides that the Manager will furnish the Fund with investment advice and investment management and administrative services. The Manager has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Jennison Associates LLC.
Advisory Fee and Expense Limitations: The Manager receives a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, based on an annual rate of the average net assets. The Manager pays the subadvisor a fee as compensation for advisory services provided to the Fund. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive expenses in accordance with limitation expense policies as noted in the table below. The Manager will reimburse the Fund for its operating expenses, exclusive of taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, distribution fees and extraordinary expenses, but inclusive of the advisory fee, which in the aggregate exceed specified percentages of the Fund’s average net assets while retaining their ability to be reimbursed for such fee waivers prior to the end of the fiscal year. The advisory fee and expense limitation are summarized as follows:
| | | | |
Advisory Fee | | Effective Advisory Fee | | Expense Limitation |
.85% to $500 million; | | .76% | | 1.15% |
.80% next $500 million; | | | | |
.75% next $1.5 billion; | | | | |
.725% in excess of $2.5 billion | | | | |
| | | | |

(Unaudited) continued
Such contractual fee waivers or reductions have been calculated prior to any fee reimbursements with respect to the expense limitations, and may be rescinded at any time and without notice to investors. All reimbursements by the Manager are reflected in the Statements of Operations.
Certain officers and directors of the Fund are officers or directors of the Manager. The Fund pays no compensation directly to its officers or interested directors.
The Fund has distribution agreements with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS”) and Prudential Annuities Distributors, Inc. (“PAD”). PIMS and PAD are both affiliates of PI and indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Prudential. PIMS serves as the distributor of the Fund’s Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares. PIMS, together with PAD, serves as co-distributor of the Fund’s Class X shares.
The Company has adopted a separate Distribution and Service plan (each a “Plan” and collectively the “Plans”) for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R and Class X shares of the Fund in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. No distribution or service fees are paid to PIMS as distributor for the Fund’s Class Q or Class Z shares.
Under the Plans, the Fund compensates PIMS and PAD a distribution and service fee at an annual rate up to .30%, 1.00%, 1.00%, .75% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, B, C, R and X shares, respectively. Through February 28, 2015, PIMS has contractually agreed to limit such fees to .25% and .50% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares and Class R shares, respectively.
During the six months ended April 30, 2014, PIMS has advised the Fund, front-end sales charges (“FESC”) and gross contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) were as follows:
| | | | | | |
Class A FESC | | Class A CDSC | | Class B CDSC | | Class C CDSC |
$1,848,913 | | $33,162 | | $119,951 | | $34,696 |
4. Other Transactions with Affiliates
Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC (“PMFS”), an affiliate of Prudential Investments LLC and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, serves as the Fund’s transfer agent. Transfer agent fees and expenses are shown in the Statements of Operations.
The Fund 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.
Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, served as the Fund’s securities lending agent. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, PIM has been compensated approximately $51,000 for these services.
5. Shares of Capital Stock
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R, Class X and Class Z shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Purchases of $1 million or more are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) if shares are redeemed within 12 months of their purchase. Class B shares are sold with a CDSC which declines from 5% to zero depending upon the period of time the shares are held. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares approximately seven years after purchase. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1% on shares redeemed within the first 12 months of purchase. As of April 11, 2014, the last conversion of Class X to Class A shares was completed. There are no Class X shares outstanding and Class X shares are no longer being offered for sale. Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares are not subject to any sales or redemption charge and are offered exclusively for sale to a limited group of investors.
Under certain circumstances, an exchange may be made from specified share classes of the Fund to one or more other share classes of the Fund as presented in the table of transactions in shares of capital.
Of the Company’s authorized capital stock, 725 million authorized shares have been allocated to the Fund and divided into eight classes, designated Class A, Class B, Class C, Class M, Class Q, Class R, Class X and Class Z capital stock, each of which consists of 253 million, 20 million, 150 million, 1 million, 75 million, 75 million, 1 million and 150 million authorized shares, respectively.

6. Tax Information
The United States federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments and the net unrealized appreciation as of April 30, 2014 were as follows:
| | | | |
Tax Basis | | $ | 4,070,052,145 | |
| | | | |
Appreciation | | | 852,573,616 | |
Depreciation | | | (167,668,947 | ) |
| | | | |
Net Unrealized Appreciation | | $ | 684,904,669 | |
The difference between book basis and tax basis is primarily attributable to deferred losses on wash sales, investment in partnerships and other cost basis differences between financial and tax reporting.
Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Fund’s federal and state income and federal excise 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.
7. Portfolio Securities
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short term obligations, during the six months ended April 30, 2014, were $1,590,113,428 and $1,551,075,280, respectively.
8. Borrowings
The Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is 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 November 5, 2013 through November 4, 2014. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .08% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to November 5, 2013, the Funds had another SCA with substantially similar terms. 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 Fund borrowed an average balance of $8,920,000 for 3 days at a weighted average interest rate of 1.41% pursuant to the SCA during the six months ended April 30, 2014.

Note 9. Reorganization
On December 4, 2012, the Board of Trustees of the Company approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) which provided for the transfer of all the assets of the following portfolio for shares of the acquiring portfolio and the assumption of the liabilities of the portfolio. Shareholders approved the Plan at a meeting on June 7, 2013 and the reorganization took place on June 21, 2013.
The purpose of the transaction was to combine two funds with comparable investment objectives and policies.
The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of the following shares on June 21, 2013:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Merged Portfolio | | | Acquiring Portfolio | |
Target Growth Asset Allocation Fund | | | Jennison Equity Income Portfolio | |
Class | | Shares | | | Class | | | Shares | | | Value | |
A | | | 8,584,038 | | | | A | | | | 7,610,532 | | | $ | 114,043,817 | |
B | | | 1,293,742 | | | | B | | | | 1,112,052 | | | | 15,752,745 | |
C | | | 2,917,774 | | | | C | | | | 2,513,330 | | | | 35,553,074 | |
R | | | 218 | | | | R | | | | 192 | | | | 2,880 | |
X | | | 7,101 | | | | X | | | | 6,216 | | | | 87,873 | |
Z | | | 195,311 | | | | Z | | | | 177,971 | | | | 2,666,337 | |
For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Jennison Equity Income Portfolio were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from Target Growth Asset Allocation Fund was carried forward to reflect the tax-free status of the acquisition.
The net assets and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) immediately before the acquisitions were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Merged Portfolio | | | Acquiring Portfolio | |
Target Growth Asset Allocation Fund | | | Jennison Equity Income Portfolio | |
Class | | Net Assets | | | Unrealized Appreciation | | | Class | | | Net Assets | |
A | | $ | 114,043,817 | | | $ | 9,081,317 | | | | A | | | $ | 1,416,383,180 | |
B | | | 15,752,745 | | | | 9,232,717 | | | | B | | | | 116,255,227 | |
C | | | 35,553,074 | | | | 7,264,184 | | | | C | | | | 854,459,849 | |
R | | | 2,880 | | | | 4,463 | | | | Q | | | | 2,194,387 | |
X | | | 87,873 | | | | (360,578 | ) | | | R | | | | 16,001,929 | |
Z | | | 2,666,337 | | | | 9,013,263 | | | | X | | | | 600,811 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | Z | | | | 1,058,696,322 | |
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on November 1, 2012, Jennison Equity Income Portfolio’s results of operations for the year ended October 31, 2013 were as follows:
| | | | |
Net investment income | | $ | 87,324,855 | (a) |
Net realized and unrealized | | $ | 710,167,851 | (b) |
| | | | |
Gain (loss) on investments | | $ | 797,492,706 | |
| | | | |
(a) | $86,240,008, as reported in the Statement of Operations, plus $619,847 Net Investment Income from Merged Fund pre-merger, plus $465,000 of pro-forma eliminated expenses. |
(b) | $689,846,550, as reported in the Statement of Operations, plus $20,321,301 Net Realized and Unrealized Gain (loss) on Investments from Merger Fund pre-merger. |
Because both Jennison Equity Income Portfolio and Target Growth Asset Allocation Fund sold and redeemed shares throughout the period, it is not practicable to provide pro-forma information on a per-share basis.
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is also not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of Target Growth Asset Allocation Fund that have been included in Jennison Equity Income Portfolio’s Statement of Operations since June 21, 2013.

Dear Shareholder:
We hope you find the semiannual report for the Prudential Mid-Cap Value Fund informative and useful. The report covers performance for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2014.
We recognize that ongoing market volatility may make it a difficult time to be an investor. We continue to believe a prudent response to uncertainty is to maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals.
Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. Keep in mind, however, that diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Prudential Investments® is dedicated to helping you solve your toughest investment challenges—whether it’s capital growth, reliable income, or protection from market volatility and other risks. We offer the expertise of Prudential Financial’s affiliated asset managers* that strive to be leaders in a broad range of funds to help you stay on course to the future you envision. They also manage money for major corporations and pension funds around the world, which means you benefit from the same expertise, innovation, and attention to risk demanded by today’s most sophisticated investors.
Thank you for choosing the Prudential Investments family of funds.
Sincerely,

Fees and Expenses (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemptions, as applicable, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses, as applicable. 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 mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on November 1, 2013, at the beginning of the period, and held through the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. The example is for illustrative purposes only; you should consult the Prospectus for information on initial and subsequent minimum investment requirements.
Actual Expenses
The first line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’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 Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The Fund’s transfer agent may charge additional fees to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table on the following page. These fees apply to individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Section 403(b) accounts. As of the close of the six-month period covered by the table, IRA fees included an annual maintenance fee of $15 per account (subject to a maximum annual maintenance fee of $25 for all accounts held by the same shareholder). Section 403(b) accounts are charged an annual $25 fiduciary maintenance fee. Some of the fees may vary in amount, or may be waived, based on your total account balance or the number of

Fees and Expenses (continued)
Prudential Investments funds, including the Fund, that you own. You should consider the additional fees that were charged to your Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value, as these additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the expense table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line for each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

*Fund expenses (net of fee waivers or subsidies, if any) for each share class are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each share class (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the 181 days in the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, and divided by the 365 days in the Fund’s fiscal year ending October 31, 2014 (to reflect the six-month period). Expenses presented in the table include the expenses of any underlying portfolios in which the Fund may invest.

1. Organization
Prudential Investment Portfolios, Inc. 10 (the “Company”) is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (“1940 Act”). The Company was organized on March 5, 1997, as a Maryland Corporation. The Company operates as a series company. At April 30, 2014, the Company consisted of two diversified investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). The information presented in these financial statements pertains to Prudential Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”). The investment objective of the Fund is capital growth.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements.
Security Valuation: The Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund’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 Portfolio of Investments.
Common stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments 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. 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 except for exchange-traded and cleared swaps which are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the prices marked at the official settle are not public.
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 asked prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an asked 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 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. Securities not valued using such model prices are valued in accordance with exchange- traded common 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.
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.
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
| | | | |
Prudential Mid-Cap Value Fund | | | 25 | |
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited) continued
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: Fund securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based on the current rates of exchange. Purchases and sales of Fund securities and income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions. Gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates applicable to long-term foreign securities are not reported separately from gains and losses arising from movements in securities prices. Net realized foreign exchange gains and losses include gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign currency exchange contracts, gains and losses realized between the trade and settlement dates of foreign securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued on foreign securities and the U.S. dollar amount actually received. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses include gains and losses from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than Fund securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Securities Lending: The Fund 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 Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Fund securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially,
the Fund has the right to repurchase the securities using the collateral in the open market. The Fund 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 Fund 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.
Net investment income or loss (other than distribution fees which are charged directly to the respective class and transfer agency fees specific to Class Q shares which are charged to that share 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.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends, if any, from net investment income are declared and paid at least annually. These dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Net realized gains from investment transactions, if any, are distributed at least annually. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gains are reclassified to paid-in capital when they arise.
Taxes: For federal income tax purposes, each Fund in the Company is treated as a separate tax paying entity. It is the Fund’s policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income and capital gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are recorded net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.
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.

3. Agreements
The Fund has entered into an investment management agreement with PI which provides that the Manager will furnish the Fund with investment advice and investment management and administrative services. The Manager has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Quantitative Management Associates LLC (“QMA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Investment Management, Inc. The subadvisory agreement provides that QMA furnishes investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Fund. PI pays for the services of QMA, the cost of compensation of officers of the Fund, occupancy and certain clerical and bookkeeping costs of the Fund. The Fund bears all other costs and expenses.
The advisory fee paid to PI is computed daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of .90% of the average daily net assets of the Fund up to $500 million, .85% of the next $500 million and .80% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. The effective management fee rate was .74% for the six months ended April 30, 2014.
Certain officers and directors of the Fund are officers or directors of the Manager. The Fund pays no compensation directly to their officers or interested directors.
Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS”) and Prudential Annuities Distributors, Inc. (“PAD”), both affiliates of the Manager and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“Prudential”), serve as the distributors of the Fund. The Company has adopted a separate Distribution and Service plan (each a “Plan” and collectively the “Plans”) for Class A, B, C, and X shares of each Fund in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. No distribution or service fees are paid to PIMS as distributor for Class Q or Class Z shares.
Under the Plans, the Fund compensates PIMS and PAD distribution and service fees at an annual rate up to .30%, 1.00%, 1.00%, and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, B, C, and X shares, respectively. Through February 28, 2015, PIMS has contractually agreed to limit such fees to .25% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares.
Management has received the maximum allowable amount of sales charges for Class X in accordance with regulatory limits. As such, any contingent deferred sales charges received by the Manager are contributed back into the Fund and included in
the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights as a contribution to capital.
Effective as of May 16, 2013, PI has agreed to reimburse Fund expenses and/or waive its investment management fee so that the Fund’s annual operating expenses do not exceed 0.98% (exclusive of 12b-1 fees and certain other expenses) of the Fund’s average net assets through February 28, 2015.
During the six months ended April 30, 2014, PIMS has advised the Fund, front-end sales charges (“FESC”) and contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) were as follows:
| | | | | | |
Class A FESC | | Class A CDSC | | Class B CDSC | | Class C CDSC |
$158,488 | | $1,556 | | $3,721 | | $3,269 |
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 Fund’s transfer agent. Transfer agent fees and expenses shown in the Statements of Operations include certain out-of pocket expenses paid to non-affiliates, where applicable. The Fund invests in the Prudential Core Taxable Money Market Fund (the “Core Fund”), a portfolio of 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.
Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, served as the Fund’s securities lending agent. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, PIM has been compensated $3,333 for these services.
5. Shares of Capital Stock
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class X and Class Z shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Purchases of $1 million or more are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) if shares are redeemed within 12 months of their purchase. Class B shares are sold with a CDSC which declines from 5% to zero depending upon the period of time the shares are held. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares approximately seven

years after purchase. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1% on shares redeemed within the first 12 months of purchase. As of April 11, 2014, the last conversion of Class X to Class A shares was completed. There are no Class X shares outstanding and Class X shares are no longer being offered for sale. Class Q and Class Z shares are not subject to any sales or redemption charge and are offered exclusively for sale to a limited group of investors.
Under certain circumstances, an exchange may be made from specified share classes of the Fund to one or more other share classes of the Fund as presented in the table of transactions in shares of beneficial interest.
The authorized capital stock of the Company is 5.5 billion shares, with a par value of $.001 per share. Of the Company’s authorized capital stock, 175 million authorized shares have been allocated to the Fund and divided into seven classes, designated Class A, Class B, Class C, Class M, Class Q, Class X and Class Z capital stock, each of which consists of 52 million, 10 million, 30 million, 2 million, 40 million, 1 million and 40 million authorized shares, respectively.

6. Tax Information
The United States federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments and the net unrealized appreciation as of April 30, 2014 were as follows:
| | | | |
Tax Basis | | $ | 277,583,895 | |
| | | | |
Appreciation | | | 46,183,245 | |
Depreciation | | | (1,820,382 | ) |
| | | | |
Net Unrealized Appreciation | | $ | 44,362,863 | |
| | | | |
The difference between book basis and tax basis was primarily attributable to deferred losses on wash sales.
Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Fund’s federal and state income and federal excise 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.
7. Portfolio Securities
Purchases and sales of securities, other than U.S. government securities and short term obligations, during the six months ended April 30, 2014, were $184,658,637 and $111,833,012, respectively.
8. Borrowings
The Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is 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 November 5, 2013 through November 4, 2014. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .08% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to November 5, 2013, the Funds had another SCA with substantially similar terms. 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 Fund did not utilize the SCA during the six months ended April 30, 2014.
