NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)– KKR & Co. L.P. (NYSE:KKR) today reported its first quarter 2015 results.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the fair value of our private equity portfolio appreciated 5.1%.

KKR declares a distribution of $0.46 per common unit, which includes $0.22 of realized cash carry, the 20th consecutive quarter that realized cash carry has been a component of the distribution.

“We had a good start to the year with strong returns and cash flow generation, which translated into $599 million of economic net income and $517 million of total distributable earnings,” said Henry R. Kravis and George R. Roberts, Co-Chairmen and Co-Chief Executive Officers of KKR. “Additionally, our balance sheet continues to perform, resulting in a 20% cash return on equity over the twelve months ending March 31st.”

Note: Certain financial measures, including total distributable earnings, FRE, ENI, ENI after taxes, fee and yield earnings, book value, cash and short-term investments and adjusted units, are not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). See Exhibits B and C for a reconciliation of such measures to financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

GAAP RESULTS

GAAP net income (loss) for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, included net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. of $270.5 million and net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit of $0.57, on a diluted basis. For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. was $210.0 million and net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit was $0.65, on a diluted basis. The increase in net income (loss) was primarily due to an increase in KKR & Co. L.P.’s ownership percentage in the KKR business, partially offset by an increase in expenses.

Private Markets

AUM was $62.1 billion as of March 31, 2015, an increase of $0.6 billion, compared to AUM of $61.5 billion as of December 31, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised in European Fund IV and Global Infrastructure Investors II as well as appreciation in the fair value of our private equity portfolio. These increases were offset by distributions to limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations.

FPAUM was $47.2 billion as of March 31, 2015, a decrease of $0.1 billion, compared to FPAUM of $47.3 billion as of December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to distributions to limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations as well as the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on euro denominated commitments. These decreases were offset by new capital raised in European Fund IV and Global Infrastructure Investors II.

Total segment revenues were $868.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $137.3 million, compared to total segment revenues of $730.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase in revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was principally attributable to an increase in performance income due to higher net carried interest resulting from more private equity funds earning carried interest and to a lesser extent higher overall appreciation in our private equity portfolio.

ENI was $568.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $83.1 million, compared to ENI of $485.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to higher total segment revenues as described above, partially offset by higher allocations to the carry pool resulting from the higher levels of net carried interest.

Public Markets

AUM was $37.0 billion as of March 31, 2015, a decrease of $0.1 billion, compared to AUM of $37.1 billion as of December 31, 2014. FPAUM was $35.7 billion as of March 31, 2015, a decrease of $0.1 billion, compared to FPAUM of $35.8 billion as of December 31, 2014. For both AUM and FPAUM, the decreases were primarily attributable to distributions and redemptions across multiple strategies, as well as the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our euro denominated CLO portfolio. The decreases for both AUM and FPAUM were largely offset by new capital raised.

Total segment revenues were $50.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $95.6 million, compared to total segment revenues of $145.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was principally attributable to a decrease in investment income due primarily to net unrealized losses in our CLOs and certain credit and other Public Markets related investments, as well as lower performance income for the period. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in net interest and dividends relating primarily to the yielding assets of KKR Financial Holdings LLC (“KFN”), which was acquired on April 30, 2014 but was not part of the KKR platform for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

ENI was $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $95.0 million, compared to ENI of $97.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was principally attributable to the decrease in total segment revenues as described above.

Capital Markets

Total segment revenues were $44.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $24.8 million, compared to total segment revenues of $69.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in revenues primarily reflect a lower level of overall capital markets transaction activity for the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

ENI was $28.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $19.0 million, compared to ENI of $47.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The decrease for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 primarily reflects the decrease in total segment revenues as described above, partially offset by lower compensation expense.

CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

As of March 31, 2015, KKR had $1.5 billion of cash and short-term investments and $3.1 billion of outstanding debt and preferred share obligations on a total reportable segment basis. This includes KFN’s debt obligations of $657.3 million and KFN’s 7.375% Series A LLC preferred shares of $373.8 million, which are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of KFN. As of March 31, 2015, KKR had a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility, which was undrawn. In addition, KKR has a $500.0 million revolving credit facility for use in its capital markets business that had $97.0 million drawn as of March 31, 2015.

As of March 31, 2015, KKR’s portion of total uncalled commitments to its investment funds was $1.2 billion. See Exhibit A for details.

Notes to Reportable Segments (Unaudited)

The segment key performance measures that follow are used by management in making operating and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the overall performance of each of KKR’s reportable business segments. The reportable segments for KKR’s business are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. L.P. and KKR Holdings L.P. and as such represent the business in total. In addition, KKR’s reportable segments are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of the funds that KKR manages.

KKR discloses the following financial measures in this earnings release that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to unitholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR’s businesses. These financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for similar financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We caution readers that these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the calculations of other investment managers, and as a result, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are included elsewhere within this earnings release.

Fee related earnings (“FRE”) is comprised of (i) total management, monitoring and transaction fees, net, plus incentive fees, less (ii) cash compensation and benefits, occupancy and related charges and other operating expenses. This measure is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating earnings of KKR and its business segments before carried interest and related carry pool allocations and investment income. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the operating profitability of our fee generating management companies and capital markets businesses. The components of FRE on a segment basis differ from the equivalent GAAP amounts on a consolidated basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of charges relating to carry pool allocations; (v) the exclusion of non-cash equity-based charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”); (vi) the exclusion of certain reimbursable expenses; and (vii) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items.

Economic net income (loss) (“ENI”) is a measure of profitability for KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management as an alternative measurement of the operating and investment earnings of KKR and its business segments. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the overall profitability of KKR’s businesses inclusive of carried interest and related carry pool allocations and investment income. ENI is comprised of total segment revenues less total segment expenses and certain economic interests in KKR’s segments held by third parties. ENI differs from net income (loss) on a GAAP basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of non-cash equity-based charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the Equity Incentive Plan or other securities that are exchangeable for common units of KKR & Co. L.P.; (v) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items; (vi) the exclusion of investment income (loss) relating to noncontrolling interests; and (vii) the exclusion of income taxes.

Fee and Yield Earnings is comprised of FRE and net interest and dividends from KKR’s business segments. This measure is used by management as a measure of the cash earnings of KKR and its business segments’ investment income. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides insight into the amount of KKR’s cash earnings, significant portions of which tend to be more recurring than realized carried interest and net realized gains from quarter to quarter.

Fee and Yield EBITDA is comprised of Fee and Yield Earnings before the impact of depreciation of fixed assets and core interest expense. This is used by management as another measure of the cash earnings of KKR and its business segments investment income. We believe this measure is also useful to unitholders as it provides insight into the amount of KKR’s cash earnings before the impact of interest expense, significant portions of which tend to be more recurring than realized carried interest and realized investment income from quarter to quarter.

Net realized investment income – KKR (ex-KFN) refers to net cash income from (i) realized investment gains and losses excluding certain realized investment losses to the extent unrealized losses on these investments were recognized prior to the combination with KPE on October 1, 2009, (ii) dividend income, and (iii) interest income net of interest expense in each case generated by KKR (excluding KFN). This term describes a portion of KKR’s quarterly distribution and excludes net realized investment income of KFN.

Net realized investment income – KFN refers to net cash income from (i) realized investment gains and losses, (ii) dividend income and (iii) interest income net of interest expense less certain general and administrative expenses incurred in the generation of net realized investment income in each case generated by KFN. This term describes a portion of KKR’s quarterly distribution.

Investments is a term used solely for purposes of financial presentation of a portion of KKR’s balance sheet and includes majority investments in subsidiaries that operate KKR’s asset management and broker-dealer businesses, including the general partner interests of KKR’s investment funds.

Total distributable earnings is the sum of (i) FRE, (ii) carry distributions received from KKR’s investment funds which have not been allocated as part of its carry pool, (iii) net realized investment income — KKR (ex-KFN) and (iv) net realized investment income — KFN; less (i) applicable local income taxes, if any, and (ii) noncontrolling interests. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides a supplemental measure to assess performance, excluding the impact of mark-to-market gains (losses), and amounts available for distribution to KKR unitholders. However, total distributable earnings is not a measure that calculates actual distributions under KKR’s current distribution policy.

Assets under management (“AUM”) represent the assets from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest and general partner capital. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds. KKR calculates the amount of AUM as of any date as the sum of: (i) the fair value of the investments of KKR’s investment funds plus uncalled capital commitments from these funds; (ii) the fair value of investments in KKR’s co-investment vehicles; (iii) the net asset value of certain of KKR’s fixed income products; (iv) the value of outstanding CLOs (excluding CLOs wholly-owned by KKR); and (v) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. AUM excludes those assets managed by entities where KKR does not hold more than a 50% ownership interest. KKR’s definition of AUM is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in the agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages or calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.

Fee paying AUM (“FPAUM”) represents only those assets under management from which KKR receives management fees. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. This relates to KKR’s capital raising activities and the overall activity in its investment funds or CLOs, for only those funds or CLOs where KKR receives fees (i.e., excluding vehicles that receive only carried interest or general partner capital). FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR’s fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets from which KKR does not receive a fee are excluded (i.e., assets with respect to which it receives only carried interest) and (ii) certain assets, primarily in its private equity funds, are reflected based on capital commitments and invested capital as opposed to fair value because fees are not impacted by changes in the fair value of underlying investments.

Equity invested is the aggregate amount of equity capital that has been invested by KKR’s investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles and is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR and its business segments during a given period. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s investments among its investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles and replaces committed dollars invested. Such amounts include: (i) capital invested by fund investors and co-investors with respect to which KKR is entitled to a carried interest and (ii) capital invested by KKR’s investment funds, including investments made using investment financing arrangements.

Gross dollars invested is the aggregate amount of capital that has been invested by all of KKR’s Public Markets investment vehicles in our private credit non-liquid strategies and is used as a measure of investment activity for a portion of KKR’s Public Markets segment in a given period. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s investment of capital across private credit non-liquid strategies for all the investment vehicles in the Public Markets segment. Such amounts include capital invested by fund investors and co-investors with respect to which KKR’s Public Markets business is entitled to a fee or carried interest.

Syndicated capital is generally the aggregate amount of capital in transactions originated by KKR investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which has been distributed to third parties in exchange for a fee. It does not include (i) capital invested in such transactions by KKR investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which is instead reported in equity invested and (ii) debt capital that is arranged as part of the acquisition financing of transactions originated by KKR investment funds. Syndicated capital is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR and its business segments during a given period, and we believe that this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into levels of syndication activity in the Capital Markets segment and across its investment platform.

Uncalled commitments are used as a measure of unfunded capital commitments that KKR’s investment funds and carry-paying co-investment vehicles have received from partners to contribute capital to fund future investments. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the amount of capital that is available to KKR’s investment funds to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements.

Adjusted units are used as a measure of the total equity ownership of KKR that is held by KKR & Co. L.P. (including equity awards issued under the Equity Incentive Plan), KKR Holdings and other holders of securities exchangeable into common units of KKR & Co. L.P. and represent the fully diluted unit count using the if-converted method. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides an indication of the total equity ownership of KKR as if all outstanding KKR Holdings units, equity awards issued under the Equity Incentive Plan and other exchangeable securities had been exchanged for common units of KKR & Co. L.P.

Core interest expense is used by management as an alternative measurement of interest expense incurred by KKR on a segment basis and excludes interest expense related to debt obligations from investment financing arrangements related to certain of KKR’s investment funds, investment vehicles and principal investments and also excludes interest expense incurred by KFN. The financing arrangements excluded from core interest expense are not direct obligations of the general partners of KKR’s private equity funds or its management companies, and in the case of debt obligations of KFN are non-recourse to KKR beyond the assets of KFN. On a segment basis, interest expense is included in net interest and dividends within total investment income. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides an indication of the amount of interest expense borne by KKR excluding interest expense that is allocated to KKR’s investment funds, other noncontrolling interest holders and KFN. Additionally, we believe this measure is useful for analyzing KKR’s ability to service its debt obligations other than the debt obligations of KFN.

Book value is a measure of the net assets of KKR’s reportable segments and is used by management primarily in assessing the unrealized value of KKR’s investment portfolio, including carried interest, as well as KKR’s overall liquidity position. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into the assets and liabilities of KKR excluding the assets and liabilities that are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders. Book value differs from KKR & Co. L.P. partners’ capital on a GAAP basis primarily as a result of the exclusion of ownership interests attributable to KKR Holdings.

Cash and short-term investments represent cash and liquid short-term investments in high-grade, short-duration cash management strategies used by KKR to generate additional yield on our excess liquidity and is used by management in evaluating KKR’s liquidity position. We believe this measure is useful to unitholders as it provides additional insight into KKR’s available liquidity. Cash and short-term investments differ from cash and cash equivalents on a GAAP basis as a result of the inclusion of liquid short-term investments in cash and short-term investments.

Return on equity measures the amount of net income generated as a percentage of capital invested in KKR’s business. Return on equity is calculated by dividing Economic Net Income (Loss), After Taxes on a trailing twelve-month basis by the average book value during the period.

Cash return on equity measures the amount of cash income generated as a percentage of capital invested in KKR’s business. Cash return on equity is calculated by dividing Distributable Earnings, net of taxes on a trailing twelve-month basis by the average book value during the period.
