__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NEW YORK, May 6, 2020 - KKR & Co. Inc. (NYSE: KKR) today reported its first quarter 2020 results.

GAAP Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Class A Common Stockholders(1) was $(1,288.9) million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. On a diluted basis, Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Per Share of Class A Common Stock was $(2.31) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. KKR & Co. Inc. Stockholders' Equity - Common Stockholders(1) was $8.8 billion as of March 31, 2020, or $15.97 Per Outstanding Share of Class A common stock.

After-tax Distributable Earnings and After-tax Distributable Earnings Per Adjusted Share were $355.3 million and $0.42, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

As of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2020:
After-tax Distributable Earnings Per Adjusted Share are 11% higher compared to the first quarter of 2019.
Assets Under Management and Fee Paying Assets Under Management were $207 billion and $159 billion, up 4% and 8%, respectively, over the last twelve months. Uncalled commitments were $58 billion, of which $19 billion will contribute to Fee Paying Assets Under Management as that capital is either invested or enters its investment period.
Book value was $13.9 billion or $16.52 per adjusted share.
A dividend of $0.135 per share of Class A common stock has been declared for the first quarter of 2020.  This is consistent with KKR’s previously announced decision to increase its annualized dividend per Class A Common stock by 8% from $0.50 to $0.54 beginning with this quarter.
From December 31, 2019 through May 6, 2020, KKR used a total of $286 million under its share repurchase plan; open market repurchases were made at an average cost of $24.14.  KKR announces an increase in its total available share repurchase reauthorization to $500 million, effective immediately.

“As we reflect on the quarter, we can’t help but pause to first express our gratitude for the sacrifices, efforts and professionalism exhibited by all essential workers, including the many who work for our portfolio companies, standing on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Henry R. Kravis and George R. Roberts, Co-Chairmen and Co-Chief Executive Officers of KKR. “Since February, we have seen more uncertainty and volatility than at any time since the financial crisis. KKR navigated the quarter well and our results bear testament to the strength of our business model. We are enormously proud of the dedication of our employees and believe we are well positioned to help our clients and communities for what lies ahead.”



 
 
 
 
Note: KKR discloses in this earnings release certain financial measures, including after-tax distributable earnings and book value that are not calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”). Such non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures, including operating assets, operating liabilities, operating revenues, operating expenses and distributable operating earnings, are presented in this earnings release as KKR’s operating results, which were previously referred to as segment results. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in Exhibit A.

GAAP RESULTS
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Class A Common Stockholders was $(1,288.9) million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to $701.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were $(1,001.5) million compared to $1,187.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease is primarily driven by mark-to-market net carried interest losses in the current period due to economic and market impacts of COVID-19, partially offset by a higher level of management fees.
Expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were $(96.7) million compared to $728.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The decrease is primarily driven by the reversal of previously recognized accrued carried interest compensation resulting from net carried interest losses in the current period.
Total investment income (loss) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $(3,683.8) million compared to $1,335.9 million for the comparable period of 2019. The decrease is primarily due to unrealized investment losses from our investment portfolio driven by the impact of COVID-19 on the economic outlook and overall market environment.
KKR & Co. Inc. Stockholders’ Equity - Common Stockholders per Outstanding Share of Class A common stock was $15.97 as of March 31, 2020, down from $18.44 as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to net depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio that is attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. and to a lesser extent dividends to Class A common stockholders.

___________________________
OPERATING RESULTS
AFTER-TAX DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS
After-tax distributable earnings was $355.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared with $314.1 million in the comparable prior period.
The increase was primarily due to an increase in realized investment income and an increase in management fees. Management fees were $331.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared with $292.3 million in the comparable prior period. The increase in management fees reflects an overall higher level of FPAUM in each of the Private Markets and Public Markets business lines. These increases were partially offset by an increase in compensation and benefits expense and a decrease in transaction fees.
BOOK VALUE PER ADJUSTED SHARE
Book value per adjusted share was $16.52 as of March 31, 2020, down 14%, compared with $19.24 as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to net depreciation in the value of our investment portfolio primarily due to the market and economic impacts of COVID-19 and to a lesser extent dividends to our shareholders, net of after-tax distributable earnings. Our private equity portfolio appreciated 4% over the last twelve months.
___________________________
OPERATING METRICS
ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT
AUM was $207.1 billion as of March 31, 2020 compared to $218.4 billion as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in the value of our Private and Public Markets portfolios and distributions to limited partners in our private equity portfolio and redemptions in funds managed by our strategic partners. The decline in values in the quarter was primarily driven by the market and economic impacts of COVID-19. These decreases were partially offset by new capital raised in our private equity and real estate funds and leveraged credit investment vehicles.
FEE PAYING ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT
FPAUM was $159.1 billion as of March 31, 2020 compared to $161.2 billion as of December 31, 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in the value of our Public Markets portfolio and distributions to limited partners in our private equity and real asset portfolios and distributions across various Public Markets strategies. This decrease was partially offset by new capital raised across multiple strategies including private credit, leveraged credit, real estate, infrastructure, and in funds managed by our strategic partners.

(1)
Capital allocation-based income (loss) is earned from those arrangements whereby KKR serves as general partner and includes income from KKR's capital interest as well as "carried interest" which entitles KKR to a disproportionate allocation of investment income from investment funds' limited partners. During the first quarter of 2020, previously recognized carried interest and the associated carried interest compensation recorded in compensation and benefits were reversed resulting from the decline in investment returns in the period.
(2)
Consistent with prior quarters, KKR Holdings L.P. units have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock since the exchange of these units would not dilute KKR’s respective ownership interests in the KKR Group Partnership L.P. As required under GAAP, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, unvested shares of Class A common stock are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock because inclusion of such unvested shares of Class A common stock would be anti-dilutive having the effect of decreasing the loss per share of Class A common stock.

INFORMATION ON NON-GAAP AND OTHER MEASURES & DEFINTIONS (UNAUDITED)

KKR operates through one operating and reportable segment. Management makes operating decisions and assesses performance of our business prior to giving effect to the (i) allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. Inc. and KKR Holdings L.P.; (ii) consolidation of the investment funds and collateralized financing entities that KKR manages; and (iii) other consolidated entities that are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc.
KKR discloses the following financial measures in this earnings release that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP: after-tax distributable earnings, after-tax distributable earnings per adjusted share, book value, book value per adjusted share, operating assets, operating liabilities, operating revenues, operating expenses and fee related earnings. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders 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, if available. In addition, 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 similarly titled measures presented by other investment managers. These non-GAAP measures are presented in this earnings release as KKR’s operating results, which were previously referred to as segment results. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable, are included in Exhibit A.
Adjusted shares represents shares of Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. outstanding under GAAP adjusted to include shares issuable upon exchange of all units of KKR Holdings L.P. We believe providing adjusted shares is useful to stockholders as it provides insight into the calculation of amounts available for distribution as dividends on a per adjusted share basis. Weighted average adjusted shares is used in the calculation of after-tax distributable earnings per adjusted share and adjusted shares is used in the calculation of book value per adjusted share.

After-tax distributable earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure of KKR’s earnings excluding mark-to-market gains (losses) after interest expense, preferred dividends, noncontrolling interests and income taxes paid. It is used by management to assess the net realized earnings of KKR for a given reporting period, after deducting equity-based compensation under the Equity Incentive Plans and adjusting to exclude the impact of non-recurring items, if any. KKR believes that after-tax distributable earnings is useful to stockholders as it aligns KKR’s net realization performance with the manner in which KKR receives its revenues and determines the compensation of its employees. After-tax distributable earnings does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR’s dividend policy. Equity-based compensation expense is included in after-tax distributable earnings as a component of compensation expense in order to reflect the dilutive nature of these non-cash equity-based awards. Income taxes paid represents the implied amount of income taxes that would be paid assuming that all pre-tax distributable earnings were allocated to KKR & Co. Inc., which would occur following an exchange of all KKR Holdings units for Class A common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Income taxes paid also includes amounts paid pursuant to the tax receivable agreement.
Assets under management ("AUM") represent the assets managed or advised by KKR from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest (either currently or upon deployment of capital), general partner capital, and assets managed or advised by our strategic BDC partnership and the hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital raising activities of KKR and its hedge fund and other managers and the overall activity in their investment funds and other managed capital. 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; (ii) uncalled capital commitments from these funds, including uncalled capital commitments from which KKR is currently not earning management fees or carried interest; (iii) the fair value of investments in KKR's co-investment vehicles; (iv) the par value of outstanding CLOs (excluding CLOs wholly-owned by KKR); (v) KKR's pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest; (vi) all AUM of the strategic BDC partnership with FS Investments; and (vii) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. The pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers is calculated based on KKR’s percentage ownership interest in such entities multiplied by such entity’s respective AUM. 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.
Book value is a non-GAAP performance measure of the net assets of KKR and is used by management primarily in assessing the unrealized value of KKR’s operating assets after deducting for operating liabilities, noncontrolling interests and preferred stock. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the net assets of KKR excluding those net assets that are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders and to the holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock. KKR's book value includes the net impact of KKR's tax assets and liabilities as prepared under GAAP.
Capital invested is the aggregate amount of capital invested by (i) KKR’s investment funds, (ii) KKR's Principal Activities business line as a co-investment, if any, alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) KKR's Principal Activities business line in connection with a syndication transaction conducted by KKR's Capital Markets business line, if any. Capital invested is used as a measure of investment activity at KKR during a given period. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides a measure of capital deployment across KKR’s business lines. Capital invested includes investments made using investment financing arrangements like credit facilities, as applicable.  Capital invested excludes (i) investments in certain leveraged credit strategies, (ii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not a co-investment alongside KKR’s investment funds, and (iii) capital invested by KKR’s Principal Activities business line that is not invested in connection with a syndication transaction by KKR’s Capital Markets business line. Capital syndicated by KKR's Capital Markets business line to third parties other than KKR’s investment funds or Principal Activities business line is not included in capital invested.  See also syndicated capital.
Distributable operating earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents after-tax distributable earnings before interest expense, preferred dividends, income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and income taxes paid. We believe distributable operating earnings is useful to stockholders as it provides a supplemental measure of our operating performance without taking into account items that we do not believe relate directly to KKR's operations.

Page 13




Operating assets is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents cash and short-term investments, investments, net unrealized carried interest, tax assets, and other assets of KKR presented on a basis that deconsolidates (i) KKR's investment funds and collateralized financing entities that KKR manages and (ii) other consolidated entities that are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the assets of KKR that are used to operate its business lines. As used in this definition, 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.
Operating expenses is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents the expenses of KKR and is the sum of (i) compensation and benefits (excluding unrealized performance income compensation), (ii) occupancy and related charges and (iii) other operating expenses. KKR believes that operating expenses is useful to stockholders as it provides insight into the costs expended in connection with generating KKR's operating revenues.
Operating revenues is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents the realized revenues (which excludes unrealized carried interest and unrealized net gains (losses)) generated by KKR and is the sum of (i) fees and other, net, (ii) realized performance income (loss) and (iii) realized investment income (loss). KKR believes that operating revenues is useful to stockholders as it provides insight into the realized revenue generated by KKR's business lines.
Operating liabilities is a non-GAAP performance measure that represents the debt obligations of KKR (including KFN), tax liabilities, and other liabilities of KKR presented on a basis that deconsolidates (i) KKR's investment funds and collateralized financing entities that KKR manages and (ii) other consolidated entities that are not subsidiaries of KKR & Co. Inc. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the liabilities of KKR excluding the liabilities that are allocated to noncontrolling interest holders and to the holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock.
Fee paying AUM ("FPAUM") represents only the AUM from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees. We believe this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the capital base upon which KKR earns management fees. FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR's and its hedge fund and BDC partnership management fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets and commitments from which KKR is not entitled to receive a management fee are excluded (e.g., assets and commitments with respect to which it is entitled to receive only carried interest or is otherwise not currently entitled to receive a management fee) 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.
Fee related earnings is a non-GAAP supplemental performance measure of earnings of KKR before performance income and investment income. KKR believes this measure may be useful to stockholders as it may provide additional insight into the profitability of KKR’s fee generating management companies and capital markets businesses. Fee related earnings is calculated as KKR’s total Fees and Other, Net, multiplied by KKR’s distributable operating margin. For purposes of the fee related earnings calculation, distributable operating margin is calculated as distributable operating earnings, before equity-based compensation, divided by total operating revenues.
Syndicated capital is the aggregate amount of capital in transactions originated by KKR and its investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles, which has been distributed to third parties, generally 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 capital invested, (ii) debt capital that is arranged as part of the acquisition financing of transactions originated by KKR investment funds, and (iii) debt capital that is either underwritten or arranged on a best efforts basis. Syndicated capital is used as a measure of investment activity for KKR during a given period, and we believe that this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into levels of syndication activity in KKR's Capital Markets business line and across KKR's investment platform.
Uncalled commitments is the aggregate amount 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 stockholders 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.

(1) 
Core interest expense may be used by certain debt investors as an alternative measurement of interest expense incurred by KKR 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. KKR believes this measure is useful to debt investors 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.
(2) 
Adjusted EBITDA may be useful to debt investors in evaluating KKR's ability to service its debt and provides insight into the amount of KKR’s distributable earnings before the impact of interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation, preferred dividends and noncontrolling interests.
