OCH-ZIFF CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
1. OVERVIEW
Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (the “Registrant”), a Delaware limited liability company, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a global alternative asset management firm with offices in New York, London, Hong Kong, Mumbai, Beijing, and Shanghai. The Company provides asset management services to its investment funds, which pursue a broad range of global investment opportunities. The Company currently manages multi-strategy funds, dedicated credit funds, including opportunistic credit funds and Institutional Credit Strategies products, real estate funds and other alternative investment vehicles (collectively the “funds”). Through Institutional Credit Strategies, the Company’s asset management platform that invests in performing credits, the Company manages collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other customized solutions for clients.
The Company’s primary sources of revenues are management fees, which are based on the amount of the Company’s assets under management, and incentive income, which is based on the investment performance of its funds. Accordingly, for any given period, the Company’s revenues will be driven by the combination of assets under management and the investment performance of the funds.
The Company currently has two operating segments: the Oz Funds segment and the Company’s real estate business. The Oz Funds segment is currently the Company’s only reportable operating segment under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and provides asset management services to the Company’s multi-strategy funds, dedicated credit funds and other alternative investment vehicles. The Company’s real estate business, which provides asset management services to its real estate funds, is included within Other Operations, as it does not meet the threshold of a reportable operating segment.
The Company generates substantially all of its revenues in the United States. The liability of the Company’s Class A Shareholders is limited to the extent of their capital contributions.
The Company conducts its operations through OZ Management LP, OZ Advisors LP and OZ Advisors II LP and their consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Oz Operating Group”). References to the Company’s “executive managing directors” refer to the current limited partners of OZ Management LP, OZ Advisors LP and OZ Advisors II LP other than the Company’s intermediate holding companies, and include the Company’s founder, Daniel S. Och, and, except where the context requires otherwise, include certain limited partners who are no longer active in the business of the Company. References to the Company’s “active executive managing directors” refer to executive managing directors who remain active in the Company’s business. References to the “Ziffs” refer collectively to Ziff Investors Partnership, L.P. II and certain of its affiliates and control persons. References to the Company’s “intermediate holding companies” refer, collectively, to Och-Ziff Holding Corporation (“Oz Corp”) and Och-Ziff Holding LLC, each of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Registrant.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited, interim, consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s unaudited, interim, consolidated financial statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results of operations presented for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. For example, incentive income for the majority of the Company’s multi-strategy assets under management is recognized in the fourth quarter each year, based on full year investment performance.
OCH-ZIFF CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Revenue Recognition Policies
The Company provides asset management services to its customers, including certain administrative services related to the funds’ operations, in exchange for management and incentive fees, which are included in the Company’s agreements with its customers. The services provided in connection with the identified performance obligations are satisfied over time. The agreements are generally automatically renewed on an annual basis unless the agreements are terminated by the general partner or directors of the respective funds.
Management Fees
Management fees for the Company’s multi-strategy funds typically range from 0.98% to 2.25% annually of assets under management based on the net asset value of these funds. For the Company’s opportunistic credit funds, management fees typically range from 0.75% to 1.75% annually based on the net asset value of these funds. Management fees for Institutional Credit Strategies, which relate primarily to the Company’s CLOs, generally range from 0.35% to 0.50% annually, and for CLOs are based on the par value of the collateral and cash held in the CLOs. Management fees for the Company’s real estate funds typically range from 0.75% to 1.50% annually based on the amount of capital committed or invested during the investment period, and on the amount of invested capital after the investment period. Management fees are recognized over the period during which the related services are performed.
Management fees are generally calculated and paid to the Company on a quarterly basis in advance, based on the amount of assets under management at the beginning of the quarter. Management fees are prorated for capital inflows and redemptions during the quarter. Accordingly, changes in the Company’s management fee revenues from quarter to quarter are driven by changes in the quarterly opening balances of assets under management, the relative magnitude and timing of inflows and redemptions during the respective quarter, as well as the impact of differing management fee rates charged on those inflows and redemptions.
The Company considers management fees to be a form of variable consideration, as the amount earned each quarter may depend on various contingencies, such as the value of assets under management, capital inflows and outflows during the period, or changes in committed or invested capital. Management fees, however, are generally crystallized at the end of each reporting period and are not subject to clawback and, therefore, the value of the management fees the Company is entitled to receive at the end of each quarter is generally no longer subject to the constraint.
Incentive Income
The Company earns incentive income based on the cumulative performance of the funds over a commitment period. Prior to the adoption of new revenue recognition accounting guidance in 2018, incentive income was recognized at the end of the applicable commitment period when the amounts were contractually payable, or “crystallized,” and when no longer subject to clawback. Beginning in 2018, as a result of the adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting guidance, the Company recognizes incentive income when such amounts are probable of not significantly reversing.
Incentive income is typically equal to 20% of the realized and unrealized profits, net of management fees, attributable to each fund investor in the Company’s multi-strategy funds, open-end opportunistic credit funds and certain other funds. Incentive income excludes unrealized gains and losses attributable to investments that the Company, as investment manager, believes lack a readily ascertainable market value, are illiquid or should be held until the resolution of a special event or circumstance (“Special Investments”). For the Company’s closed-end opportunistic credit funds, real estate funds and certain other funds, incentive income is typically equal to 20% of the realized profits, net of management fees, attributable to each fund investor. For CLOs, incentive income is typically 20% of the excess cash flows available to the holders of the subordinated notes.
The Company’s ability to earn incentive income from some of its funds may be impacted by hurdle rates, whereby the Company is not entitled to incentive income until the investment returns exceed an agreed upon benchmark. For a portion of
OCH-ZIFF CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
these assets subject to hurdle rates, once the investment performance has exceeded the hurdle rate, the Company may receive a preferential “catch-up” allocation, equal to a full 20% of the net profits attributable to investors in these assets.
All of the Company’s multi-strategy funds and open-end opportunistic credit funds are subject to a perpetual loss carry forward, or perpetual “high-water mark,” meaning the Company will not be able to earn incentive income with respect to positive investment performance it generates for a fund investor in any year following negative investment performance until that loss is recouped, at which point a fund investor’s investment surpasses the high-water mark. The Company earns incentive income on any profits, net of management fees, in excess of the high-water mark.
The commitment period for most of the Company’s multi-strategy assets under management is for a period of one year on a calendar-year basis with income recognized annually, and therefore it generally crystallizes incentive income annually on December 31. The Company may also recognize incentive income related to fund investor redemptions at other times during the year, as well as on assets under management subject to commitment periods that are longer than one year. The Company may also recognize incentive income for tax distributions related to these assets. Such distributions are amounts distributed to the Company to cover tax liabilities related to incentive income that has been accrued at the fund level but would otherwise not be recognized by the Company until it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. These distributions are not subject to clawback once distributed to the Company.
Incentive income is considered variable consideration, the recognition of which is subject to constraint. Incentive income is no longer constrained when it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur. Determining the amount of incentive income to record is subject to qualitative and quantitative factors including, where a fund is in its life-cycle, whether the Company has received or is entitled to receive incentive income distributions and potential sales of fund investments. The Company continuously evaluates whether there are additional considerations that could potentially impact the recognition of incentive income. To the extent that distributions have been received, but for which the recognition of incentive income is not appropriate, the Company will recognize a liability for unearned incentive income.
See Note 10 for additional information regarding the Company’s revenues.
Other Revenues
Other revenues consist primarily of interest income on investments in CLOs and cash and cash equivalents. Interest income is recognized on an effective yield basis. Additionally, prior to the sale of the Company’s aircraft in the first half of 2017, revenue related to non-business use of the corporate aircraft by certain executive managing directors was also included within other revenues. Revenue earned from non-business use of the corporate aircraft was recognized on an accrual basis based on actual flight hours.
Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”) are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions. The Company provides securities to counterparties to collateralize amounts borrowed under repurchase agreements on terms that permit the counterparties to repledge or resell the securities to others. Cash borrowed is included within securities sold under agreements to repurchase in the consolidated balance sheets. Securities transferred to counterparties under repurchase agreements are included within investments in the consolidated balance sheets. Interest expense incurred on these transactions is included within interest expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). See Note 9 for additional information.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to
OCH-ZIFF CAPITAL MANAGEMENT GROUP LLC
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using a modified retrospective application approach as of the beginning of the first quarter of 2018 to all contracts within the scope of the standard as of the date of adoption. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2014-09, the Company now recognizes certain incentive income earlier than as prescribed under guidance in effect for fiscal year 2017, as the threshold for recognition of incentive income under ASU 2014-09 is lower than under the previous standard. The Company recognized an opening adjustment to shareholders’ equity of $117.0 million, which is net of $11.3 million of income tax, of which $41.9 million was attributable to Class A shareholders.
The following table details the post-tax impact on the Company’s opening shareholders’ equity, by fund type, upon the adoption of ASU 2014-09:
|
| | | |
| (dollars in thousands) |
| |
Multi-strategy funds | $ | 2,727 |
|
Opportunistic credit funds | 24,462 |
|
Real estate funds | 89,795 |
|
Total | $ | 116,984 |
|
The adoption of this guidance resulted in a decrease to the liability for unearned incentive income of $99.4 million and an increase in income and fees receivable of $28.8 million.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The Company elected to early adopt the standard in the third quarter of 2018. The impacts of adoption are reflected in certain disclosures in Note 4 and include removing disclosures related to: the amount of and reasons for transfers between Levels I and II of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level III fair value measurements. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
None of the other changes to GAAP that went into effect in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 had a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Future Adoption of Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires that, for leases longer than one year, a lessee recognize in the consolidated balance sheets a right of use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability, representing the requirement to make lease payments. The recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from existing guidance. The requirements of ASU 2016-02 are effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2019. The Company expects its total assets and total liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets to increase upon adoption as a result of recording a lease asset and lease liability related to the Company’s operating leases. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. See Note 15 of the Company’s Annual Report for details related to the Company’s existing operating lease obligations.
None of the other changes to GAAP that are not yet effective are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Oz Operating Group Ownership
The Company’s equity interest in the Oz Operating Group increased to 42.6% as of September 30, 2018, from 41.5% as of December 31, 2017, (excluding Group P Units, as they are not yet participating in the economics of the Oz Operating Group). Changes in the Company’s interest in the Oz Operating Group have historically been, and in the future may be, driven by the following: (i) the exchange of Group A Units and Group P Units for an equal number of Class A Shares, at which time the related Class B Shares are also canceled; (ii) the issuance of Class A Shares under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan and 2013 Incentive Plan related to the settlement of Class A restricted share units (the “RSUs”) or Class A performance-based RSUs (the “PSUs”); (iii) the forfeiture of Group A Units and participating Group P Units by a departing executive managing director; and (iv) the repurchase of Class A Shares and Group A Units. The Company’s interest in the Oz Operating Group is expected to continue to increase over time as additional Class A Shares are issued upon the exchange of Group A Units and Group P Units, as well as the settlement of vested RSUs or PSUs. These increases will be offset upon any conversion by an executive managing director of Group D Units, which are not considered equity for GAAP purposes, into Group A Units, at which time an equal number of Class B Shares is also issued to the executive managing director. Additionally, the Company’s economic interest in the Oz Operating Group will decline when Group P Units begin to participate, as described in Note 10 in the Annual Report.
Relinquishment of Group A Units
In the third quarter of 2018, a former executive managing director of the Company relinquished 3,500,000 Group A Units and an equal number of Class B Shares.

retention rules for certain CLOs managed by the Company, and continues to hold investments in CLOs subject to these requirements.
Fair Value Disclosures
Fair value represents the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of investments that are determined to be illiquid or do not have readily ascertainable fair values, the estimates of fair value may differ from the values ultimately realized, and those differences can be material.
GAAP prioritizes the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of assets and liabilities and the specific characteristics of the assets and liabilities. Assets and liabilities with readily available, actively quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively-quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into one of the following categories:
| |
• | Level I – Fair value is determined using quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The types of assets and liabilities that would generally be included in this category are certain listed equities, U.S. government obligations and certain listed derivatives. |
| |
• | Level II – Fair value is determined using quotations received from dealers making a market for these assets or liabilities (“broker quotes”), valuations obtained from independent third-party pricing services, the use of models or other valuation methodologies based on pricing inputs that are either directly or indirectly market observable as of the measurement date. The types of assets and liabilities that would generally be included in this category are certain corporate bonds, certain credit default swap contracts, certain bank debt securities, certain commercial real estate debt, less liquid equity securities, forward contracts and certain over the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives. |
| |
• | Level III – Fair value is determined using pricing inputs that are unobservable in the market and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The fair value of assets and liabilities in this category may require significant judgment or estimation in determining fair value of the assets or liabilities. The fair value of these assets and liabilities may be estimated using a combination of observed transaction prices, independent pricing services, relevant broker quotes, models or other valuation methodologies based on pricing inputs that are neither directly or indirectly market observable. The types of assets and liabilities that would generally be included in this category include CLOs, real estate investments, equity and debt securities issued by private entities, limited partnerships, certain corporate bonds, certain credit default swap contracts, certain bank debt securities, certain commercial real estate debt, certain OTC derivatives, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations and investments in affiliated credit funds. |
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
