On a basic basis, net income attributable to Ares Management Corporation per share of Class A and non-voting common stock was $0.21 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. On a diluted basis, net income attributable to Ares Management Corporation per share of Class A and non-voting common stock was $0.21 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“Despite the market volatility and uncertain macro-economic environment, our second quarter results highlight the resiliency and stability of our business as we generated growth of 35% or more in both our assets under management and our fee related earnings and we continued to perform well for our investors,” said Michael Arougheti, Chief Executive Officer and President of Ares. “While traditional asset providers retrenched, we were active, investing opportunistically for value across our broad set of flexible strategies which resulted in an increase in our deployment compared to the first quarter.”

“Our investors continue to entrust us with additional capital allocations as we raised more than $16 billion in new gross commitments during the second quarter and over $30 billion year to date,” said Jarrod Phillips, Chief Financial Officer of Ares. “With several of our largest commingled funds launching in the second half of this year, we have a strong fundraising pipeline heading into next year.”
