GAAP RESULTS COMMENTARY

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Class A Common Stockholders was $640.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to $153.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. Class A Common Stockholders was $1,490.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $818.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Revenues were $1,129.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared to $749.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to a higher level of capital allocation-based income driven by a higher level of net appreciation in our private equity portfolio and a higher level of transaction fees as compared to the prior period. Revenues were $2,573.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $2,533.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to higher management fees, partially offset by a lower level of capital allocation-based income as compared to the prior period.

Expenses for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $740.1 million and $1,851.7 million, respectively, compared to $530.2 million and $1,700.0 million for the comparable periods of 2017. The increase for both periods was primarily due to a higher level of compensation and benefits reflecting a higher level of fees as compared to the prior periods.

Total investment income (loss) for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $833.3 million and $2,748.6 million, respectively, compared to $178.0 million and $1,289.6 million for the comparable periods of 2017. The increase for both periods was primarily due to a higher level of net gains in our investment portfolio compared to the prior periods.

KKR's conversion from a limited partnership to a corporation (the "Conversion") resulted in KKR obtaining a partial step-up in the tax basis of certain assets that will be recovered as those assets are sold or the basis is amortized. On the date of the Conversion, we recorded an estimated net tax benefit and estimated net deferred tax asset of $257.1 million relating to this partial step-up in tax basis. Our overall tax provision is based on, among other things, an estimate of the amount of such partial step-up in tax basis that is derived from an analysis of the basis of our unitholders in their ownership of KKR common units at December 31, 2017, as adjusted by partial information received by KKR for some trades made in KKR common units in 2018. While this information does not completely reflect the actual basis of our unitholders at June 30, 2018, our estimate is based on the most recent unitholder basis information available to us. Since the unitholder basis information currently available to us does not completely reflect the actual basis of our unitholders at June 30, 2018, the amount of partial step-up in tax basis as finally determined is expected to differ, possibly materially, from the current estimate, which in turn is expected to cause KKR’s income tax provision and effective tax rate under GAAP to differ, possibly to a material extent, from the current estimate described above.

SEGMENT RESULTS COMMENTARY

AFTER-TAX DISTRIBUTABLE EARNINGS

After-tax distributable earnings were $496.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared with $409.5 million in the comparable prior period. After-tax distributable earnings were $1,137.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared with $983.0 million in the comparable prior period. The increase in both periods was primarily due to (i) an increase in net realized gains at our Principal Activities business line, reflecting higher net realizations in our private equity and credit strategies, (ii) an increase in management fees as described below, (iii) an increase in transaction fees primarily in our Capital Markets business line, and (iv) a higher level of incentive fees relating to our business development companies ("BDCs"). These increases were partially offset by an increase in income taxes paid reflecting the increased amount of corporate taxes payable following the Conversion and an increase in accruals for compensation reflecting a higher level of total segment revenues in the current periods.

ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

AUM was $194.6 billion as of September 30, 2018, up $3.3 billion, compared to AUM of $191.3 billion as of June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the value of our private equity portfolio and new capital raised in our leveraged credit and private credit strategies. These increases were partially offset by distributions to limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations and distributions made in our Public Markets business line.

FEE PAYING ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT

FPAUM was $139.3 billion as of September 30, 2018, up $0.5 billion, compared to FPAUM of $138.8 billion as of June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily driven by new capital raised in our leveraged credit strategy. The increase was partially offset by distributions to limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations and distributions made in our Public Markets business line.

MANAGEMENT FEES

Management fees were $276.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, compared with $233.0 million in the comparable prior period. Management fees were $789.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $670.8 million in the comparable prior period. The increase in both periods reflects an overall higher level of FPAUM in each of the Private Markets and Public Markets business lines.

BOOK VALUE PER SHARE

Book value per adjusted share was $16.68 as of September 30, 2018, up 21%, compared with $13.80 as of September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to appreciation in the value of our investment portfolio as well as after-tax distributable earnings, net of dividends to public equity holders, over the last twelve months.

DIVIDENDS AND OTHER

A dividend of $0.125 per share of Class A Common Stock has been declared for the third quarter of 2018, which will be paid on November 20, 2018 to holders of record of Class A Common Stock as of the close of business on November 5, 2018. Under KKR's current dividend policy, KKR expects to pay its Class A Common Stockholders an annualized dividend of $0.50 per share of Class A Common Stock, equal to a quarterly dividend of $0.125 per share of Class A Common Stock.

A dividend of $0.421875 per share of Series A Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on December 17, 2018 to holders of record of Series A Preferred Stock as of the close of business on December 1, 2018. A dividend of $0.406250 per share of Series B Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on December 17, 2018 to holders of record of Series B Preferred Stock as of the close of business on December 1, 2018.

The declaration and payment of any future dividends on Preferred or Common Stock will be subject to the discretion of the board of directors of KKR & Co. Inc. based on a number of factors, including KKR’s future financial performance and other considerations that the board deems relevant, the terms of KKR & Co. Inc.'s certificate of incorporation and applicable law. There can be no assurance that future dividends will be made as intended or at all or that any particular dividend policy for Class A Common Stock will be maintained.

KKR has authorized a repurchase program, which may be used for the repurchase of its Class A Common Stock and the retirement of equity awards issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (and any successor equity plan thereto). From June 30, 2018 to October 22, 2018, KKR spent approximately $38 million to repurchase 1.4 million shares at an average price of $27.14 per share and retired equity awards representing 1.6 million shares for approximately $46 million. Collectively, approximately $783 million has been spent since October 27, 2015, representing a total of 47.9 million shares, to either repurchase shares or retire equity awards. As of October 22, 2018, approximately $366 million is available under the repurchase program.

(1)

Prior to January 1, 2018, to the extent an investment fund was not consolidated, KKR accounted for carried interest within Fees and Other separately from its capital interest, which was included in Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities in the statements of operations. Effective January 1, 2018, the carried interest component of the general partner interest and the capital interest KKR holds in its investment funds as the general partner are accounted for as a single unit of account and reported in Capital Allocation-Based Income within Revenues in the statements of operations. This change in accounting has been applied on a full retrospective basis.


(2)	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 Partnerships.
