Roberts, Co-Chairmen and Co-Chief Executive Officers of KKR. “Additionally, our investment portfolio and balance sheet continue to perform, resulting in a 25% return on equity and 23% cash return on equity over the last twelve months.”

Note: Certain financial measures, including 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”).

GAAP RESULTS

GAAP results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, included net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. of $89.9 million and $478.2 million, respectively, and net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit of $0.20 and $1.21, respectively, on a diluted basis. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013, net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. was $204.7 million and $413.3 million, respectively, and net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. per common unit was $0.66 and $1.40, respectively, on a diluted basis. The decrease in net income in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to a decrease in investment income, partially offset by an increase in fees and an increase in KKR & Co. L.P.’s ownership percentage in the KKR business. The increase in net income in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was primarily due to (i) an increase in investment income; (ii) higher fees; and (iii) an increase in KKR & Co. L.P.’s ownership percentage in the KKR business.

* All segment financial information presented in this release reflects a new presentation as of the second quarter of 2014 following the closing of the acquisition of KFN.

Private Markets

AUM was $59.2 billion as of September 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.2 billion, compared to AUM of $59.4 billion as of June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to distributions to the limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations which were offset by appreciation in the fair value of our private equity portfolio and new capital raised.

FPAUM was $45.6 billion as of September 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.6 billion, compared to FPAUM of $46.2 billion as of June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to distributions to the limited partners of our private equity funds arising from realizations which were partially offset by new capital raised.

Total segment revenues were $631.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $156.9 million compared to total segment revenues of $788.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Total segment revenues were $2,005.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $197.7 million compared to total segment revenues of $1,807.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease in revenues in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a lower level of both total investment income and carried interest reflecting a lower level of appreciation in our private equity portfolio in the 2014 period. While the value of our private equity portfolio increased in the 2014 period, the amount of appreciation was less than that in the prior period. The increase in revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of carried interest reflecting the initial recognition of carried interest in our North America Fund XI and Asian Fund II in the 2014 period.

ENI was $399.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $132.8 million compared to ENI of $531.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. ENI was $1,260.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $84.2 million compared to ENI of $1,176.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a lower level of total investment income reflecting a lower level of appreciation in our private equity portfolio and a lower level of carried interest. The decrease was partially offset by a lower level of allocations to the carry pool driven by a lower level of carried interest. The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of carried interest reflecting the initial recognition of carried interest in our North America Fund XI and Asian Fund II in the 2014 period, partially offset by higher allocations to the carry pool driven by the higher level of carried interest.

Public Markets

AUM was $37.0 billion as of September 30, 2014, a decrease of $1.5 billion, compared to AUM of $38.5 billion as of June 30, 2014. FPAUM was $35.8 billion as of September 30, 2014, an increase of $2.3 billion, compared to FPAUM of $33.5 billion as of June 30, 2014. For AUM, the decrease was primarily attributable to distributions and redemptions which were partially offset by new capital raised. For FPAUM, the increases were primarily attributable to the inclusion of $2.6 billion of CLOs partially owned by KKR that were not previously included in FPAUM, partially offset by distributions and redemptions in our credit strategies.

Total segment revenues were $93.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $10.1 million compared to total segment revenues of $83.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

The increase in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of management fees reflecting new capital raised and acquisitions. The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of management fees reflecting new capital raised and acquisitions as well as higher total investment income primarily relating to the inclusion of KKR Financial Holdings LLC (“KFN”) during the 2014 periods beginning on May 1, 2014.

ENI was $48.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $10.5 million compared to ENI of $37.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. ENI was $251.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $103.2 million compared to ENI of $148.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of management fees reflecting new capital raised and acquisitions. The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was principally attributable to a higher level of management fees reflecting new capital raised and acquisitions as well as higher total investment income primarily relating to the inclusion of KFN during the 2014 periods beginning on May 1, 2014.

The increase in total segment revenues was primarily driven by higher overall capital markets transaction activity.

The increase in both periods was principally attributable to higher transaction fees driven by higher overall capital markets transaction activity, partially offset by higher compensation expense.

CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

As of September 30, 2014, KKR had $2.1 billion of cash and short-term investments and $2.5 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 September 30, 2014, KKR had a $750.0 million revolving credit facility, which does not include a $500.0 million revolving credit facility for use in its capital markets business that was undrawn as of September 30, 2014.

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

KKR intends to make quarterly cash distributions in amounts that in the aggregate are expected to constitute substantially all of the cash earnings of the KKR’s investment management business, 40% of the net realized investment income of KKR (other than KFN), and 100% of the net realized investment income of KFN, in each case in excess of amounts determined by KKR to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and its investment funds and to comply with applicable law and any of its debt instruments or other obligations. For purposes of KKR’s distribution policy, its distributions are expected to consist of (i) FRE, (ii) carry distributions received from KKR’s investment funds which have not been allocated as part of its carry pool, (iii) 40% of the net realized investment income from KKR (other than KFN) and (iv) 100% of the net realized investment income from KFN. This amount is expected to be reduced by (i) corporate and applicable local taxes, if any, (ii) non-controlling interests, and (iii) amounts determined by KKR to be necessary or appropriate for the conduct of its business and other matters as discussed above.

The declaration and payment of any distributions are subject to the discretion of the board of directors of the general partner of KKR & Co. L.P., which may change the distribution policy at any time, and the terms of its limited partnership agreement. There can be no assurance that distributions will be made as intended or at all or that unitholders will receive sufficient distributions to satisfy payment of their tax liabilities as limited partners of KKR & Co. L.P. When KKR & Co. L.P. receives distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships (the holding companies of the KKR business), KKR Holdings receives its pro rata share of such distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships.

KKR

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 KKR’s Capital Markets and Other 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.
