Overview

We are a leading global investment firm that offers alternative asset management as well as capital markets and insurance solutions. We aim to generate attractive investment returns by following a patient and disciplined investment approach, employing world-class people, and supporting growth in our portfolio companies and communities. We sponsor investment funds that invest in private equity, credit, and real assets and have strategic partners that manage hedge funds. Our insurance subsidiaries offer retirement, life, and reinsurance products under the management of Global Atlantic.

As of June 30, 2023, we manage $519 billion of assets for our clients. Throughout our history, we have consistently been a leader in the private equity industry, having completed approximately 715 private equity investments in portfolio companies with a total transaction value in excess of $705 billion as of June 30, 2023. Since the inception of our firm in 1976, we have expanded our investment strategies and product offerings from traditional private equity to areas such as leveraged credit, alternative credit, infrastructure, energy, real estate, growth equity, core private equity, and impact investments. We also provide capital markets services for our firm, our portfolio companies and third parties. Our balance sheet provides a significant source of capital in the growth and expansion of our business, and it has allowed us to further align our interests with those of our fund investors. Building on these efforts and leveraging our industry expertise and intellectual capital have allowed us to capitalize on a broader range of the opportunities we source.

Our insurance business is operated by Global Atlantic, in which we acquired a majority controlling interest on February 1, 2021. Global Atlantic is a leading U.S. retirement and life insurance company that provides a broad suite of protection, legacy and savings products and reinsurance solutions to clients across individual and institutional markets. Global Atlantic primarily offers individuals fixed-rate annuities, fixed-indexed annuities and targeted life products through a network of banks, broker-dealers and independent marketing organizations. Global Atlantic provides its institutional clients customized reinsurance solutions, including block, flow and pension risk transfer reinsurance, as well as funding agreements. Global Atlantic primarily generates income by earning a spread between its investment income and the cost of policyholder benefits. As of June 30, 2023, Global Atlantic served approximately three million policyholders.

Asset Management

Our asset management business offers a broad range of investment management services to fund investors around the world. In our asset management business, we have five business lines: (1) Private Equity, (2) Real Assets, (3) Credit and Liquid Strategies, (4) Capital Markets, and (5) Principal Activities. In addition to the overviews of each of these business lines provided in this report, please also refer to our Annual Report. As an asset management firm, we earn fees, including management fees and incentive fees, and carried interest for providing investment management and other services to our funds, vehicles, CLOs, managed accounts and portfolio companies, and we generate transaction fees from capital markets transactions. We earn additional investment income by investing our own capital alongside that of our fund investors and from other assets on our balance sheet. Carried interest we receive from our funds and certain other investment vehicles entitles us to a specified percentage of investment gains that are generated on third-party capital that is invested.

Private Equity

Through our Private Equity business line, we manage and sponsor a group of private equity funds that invest capital for long-term appreciation, either through controlling ownership of a company or strategic minority positions. In addition to our traditional private equity funds that invest in large and mid-sized companies, we sponsor investment funds that invest in core private equity, growth equity, and impact investments. Our Private Equity business line includes separately managed accounts that invest in multiple strategies, which may include our credit and real assets strategies, as well as our private equity strategies. These funds and accounts are managed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P., an SEC-registered investment adviser. As of June 30, 2023, our Private Equity business line had $170.1 billion of AUM, consisting of $119.3 billion in traditional private equity, $34.3 billion in core private equity and $16.5 billion in growth equity, which includes $4.0 billion of impact investments.

(1)These funds were not contributed to KKR as part of the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of KKR & Co. (Guernsey) L.P. (formerly known as KKR Private Equity Investors, L.P.) on October 1, 2009.

(2)Where commitments are not U.S. dollar-denominated, such amounts have been converted into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate prevailing on June 30, 2023.

(3)The gross IRR, net IRR and gross multiple of invested capital are calculated for our investment funds that made their first investment at least 24 months prior to June 30, 2023. We therefore have not calculated gross IRRs, net IRRs and gross multiples of invested capital with respect to these funds.

(4)An investment is considered realized when it has been disposed of or has otherwise generated disposition proceeds or current income that has been distributed by the relevant fund.

(5)IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period. Net IRRs are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses.

The gross multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the fund. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees or organizational expenses.

KKR's Private Equity and Real Assets funds may utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds. The above net and gross IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund, and the use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of time that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time. KKR's Private Equity and Real Assets funds also generally provide in certain circumstances, which vary depending on the relevant fund documents, for a portion of capital returned to investors to be restored to unused commitments as recycled capital. For KKR's Private Equity and Real Assets funds that have a preferred return, we take into account recycled capital in the calculation of IRRs and multiples of invested capital because the calculation of the preferred return includes the effect of recycled capital. For KKR's Private Equity and Real Assets funds that do not have a preferred return, we do not take recycled capital into account in the calculation of IRRs and multiples of invested capital. The inclusion of recycled capital generally causes invested and realized amounts to be higher and IRRs and multiples of invested capital to be lower than had recycled capital not been included. The inclusion of recycled capital would reduce the composite net IRR of all Included Funds by 0.1% and the composite net IRR of all Legacy Funds by 0.5% and would reduce the composite multiple of invested capital of Included Funds by less than 0.1 and the composite multiple of invested capital of Legacy Funds by 0.4.

Credit and Liquid Strategies

Through our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line, we report our credit and hedge funds platforms on a combined basis. As of June 30, 2023, our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line had $226.8 billion of AUM, comprised of $111.9 billion of assets managed in our leveraged credit strategies, $78.2 billion of assets managed in our private credit strategy, and $8.0 billion of assets managed in our SIG strategy, $26.8 billion of assets managed through our hedge fund platform, and $1.9 billion of assets managed in other Credit and Liquid Strategies strategies. We manage $110.7 billion of credit investments for our Global Atlantic insurance companies. Our BDC has approximately $15.5 billion in assets under management, which is reflected in the AUM of our leveraged credit and private credit strategies above. We report all of the assets under management of our BDC in our AUM, but we report only a pro rata portion of the assets under management of our hedge fund partnerships based on our percentage ownership in them.

Credit

Our credit platform invests capital in a broad range of corporate debt and collateral-backed investments across asset classes and capital structures. Our credit strategies are primarily managed by KKR Credit Advisors (US) LLC, which is an SEC-registered investment adviser, KKR Credit Advisors (Ireland) Unlimited Company, which is regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland (“CBI”), KKR Credit Advisors (EMEA) LLP, which is regulated by the United Kingdom ("UK") Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA"), and KKR Credit Advisors (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., which is regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We also jointly own with a third party FS/KKR Advisor, LLC, an investment adviser registered with the SEC that provides investment advisory services to FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK), a publicly listed BDC. For further information regarding the legal entities involved in the Credit business and the regulatory and legal requirements that apply to these entities and their activities, see "—Regulation" in our Annual Report.

Our credit business pursues a variety of investment strategies in leveraged credit and alternative credit.

Leveraged Credit. Our leveraged credit strategies seek to primarily invest in leveraged loans (including revolving credit facilities), CLOs, high yield bonds, structured credit, stressed securities and illiquid credits. Within leveraged credit, we manage both single-asset class and multi-asset class pools of capital. Our opportunistic credit strategy seeks to deploy capital across investment themes that seek to take advantage of credit market dislocations, spanning asset types and liquidity profiles. Our multi-asset credit strategy seeks to dynamically allocate across asset types in a broadly diversified strategy. Our revolving credit strategy invests in senior secured revolving credit facilities.

T able of Contents

Alternative Credit. Our alternative credit strategy consists of our (i) private credit strategies and (ii) investments overseen by our credit platform’s strategic investments group (“SIG”):

Private Credit.** Our private credit strategies focus on privately or directly originated and negotiated transactions. These strategies include direct lending typically in the senior part of a company’s capital structure, junior mezzanine debt, and asset-based finance. Through our direct lending strategy, we seek to make investments in primarily senior debt financings for middle-market companies. Through our junior mezzanine debt strategy, investments typically consist of subordinated debt, which generates a current yield, coupled with marginal equity exposure for additional upside potential. Our asset-based finance strategy focuses on portfolios of financial loans and loans backed by hard assets.
Strategic Investments Group.** This strategy seeks to provide strategic capital solutions to high quality, mid-to-large cap companies and assets. The strategy pursues investments in corporate credit as well as asset or real estate-backed credit, where we believe market volatility or other investment themes have created the opportunity to invest opportunistically across the capital structure and through market cycles to generate outsized returns with downside-protected securities. These investments may include stressed or distressed investments (including post-restructuring equity), control-oriented opportunities, rescue financing (debt or equity investments made to address covenant, maturity or liquidity issues), debtor-in-possession or exit financing and other event-driven investments in debt or equity.

The table below presents information as of June 30, 2023, relating to our current credit and other investment vehicles reported in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line for which we have the ability to earn carried interest. This data does not reflect acquisitions or disposals of investments, changes in investment values, or distributions occurring after June 30, 2023.

The following table presents information regarding larger leveraged credit strategies managed by KKR from inception to June 30, 2023. The information presented below is not intended to be representative of any past or future performance for any particular period other than the period presented below. Past performance is no guarantee of any future result.


Leveraged Credit Strategy	Inception Date	Gross Returns		Net Returns		Benchmark (1)	Benchmark Gross Returns

European Leveraged Loans (6)	Sep 2009	4.42	%	3.90	%	CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index (7)	3.47%

European Credit Opportunities (6)	Sept 2007	5.76	%	4.72	%	S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans) (8)	3.99%

(1)The benchmarks referred to herein include the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA Loan Index"), S&P/LSTA U.S. B/BB Ratings Loan Index (the "S&P/LSTA BB-B Loan Index"), the Bank of America Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index (the "BoAML HY Master II Index"), the BofA Merrill Lynch BB-B US High Yield Index (the "BoAML HY BB-B Constrained"), the Credit Suisse Institutional Western European Leveraged Loan Index (the "CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index"), and S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans). The S&P/LSTA Loan Index is a daily tradable index for the U.S. loan market that seeks to mirror the market-weighted performance of the largest institutional loans that meet certain criteria. The BoAML HY Master II Index is an index for high-yield corporate bonds. It is designed to measure the broad high-yield market, including lower-rated securities. The CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index contains only institutional loan facilities priced above 90, excluding TL and TLa facilities and loans rated CC, C or are in default. The S&P European Leveraged Loan Index reflects the market-weighted performance of institutional leveraged loan portfolios investing in European credits. While the returns of our leveraged credit strategies reflect the reinvestment of income and dividends, none of the indices presented in the chart above reflect such reinvestment, which has the effect of increasing the reported relative performance of these strategies as compared to the indices. Furthermore, these indices are not subject to management fees, incentive allocations, or expenses.

(2)Performance is based on a blended composite of Bank Loans Plus High Yield strategy accounts. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Bank Loans Plus High Yield strategy is based on 65% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 35% BoAML HY Master II Index.

(3)The Opportunistic Credit strategy invests in high-yield securities and corporate loans with no preset allocation. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Opportunistic Credit strategy presented herein is based on 50% S&P/LSTA Loan Index and 50% BoAML HY Master II Index. Funds within this strategy may utilize third-party financing facilities to enhance investment returns. In cases where financing facilities are used, the amounts drawn on the facility are deducted from the assets of the fund in the calculation of net asset value, which tends to increase returns when net asset value grows over time and decrease returns when net asset value decreases over time.

(4)Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the Bank Loans strategy is based on the S&P/LSTA Loan Index.

(5)Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in high-yield securities. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the High Yield strategy is based on the BoAML HY Master II Index.

(6)The returns presented are calculated based on local currency.

(7)Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in higher quality leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the European Leveraged Loans strategy is based on the CS Inst West European Leveraged Loan Index.

(8)Performance is based on a composite of portfolios that primarily invest in European institutional leveraged loans. The benchmark used for purposes of comparison for the European Credit Opportunities strategy is based on the S&P European Leveraged Loans (All Loans) Index.

(1)Recycled capital is excluded from the amounts invested and realized.

(2)These credit funds utilize third-party financing facilities to provide liquidity to such funds, and in such event IRRs are calculated from the time capital contributions are due from fund investors to the time fund investors receive a related distribution from the fund. The use of such financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate IRRs, which tends to increase IRRs when fair value grows over time and decrease IRRs when fair value decreases over time. IRRs measure the aggregate annual compounded returns generated by a fund's investments over a holding period and are calculated taking into account recycled capital. Net IRRs presented are calculated after giving effect to the allocation of realized and unrealized carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses. Gross IRRs are calculated before giving effect to the allocation of carried interest and the payment of any applicable management fees and organizational expenses.

(3)The multiples of invested capital measure the aggregate value generated by a fund's investments in absolute terms. Each multiple of invested capital is calculated by adding together the total realized and unrealized values of a fund's investments and dividing by the total amount of capital invested by the investors. The use of financing facilities generally decreases the amount of invested capital that would otherwise be used to calculate multiples of invested capital, which tends to increase multiples when fair value grows over time and decrease multiples when fair value decreases over time. Such amounts do not give effect to the allocation of any realized and unrealized returns on a fund's investments to the fund's general partner pursuant to a carried interest or the payment of any applicable management fees and are calculated without taking into account recycled capital.

For additional information regarding impact of market conditions on the value and performance of our investments, see "Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business—Difficult market and economic conditions can adversely affect our business in many ways, which could adversely impact our net income, cash flow, financial condition and prospects." and "Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Assets We Manage—Future results of our funds, our insurance subsidiaries or our balance sheet investments may be different than, and may not achieve the levels of, any of their historical returns" in our Annual Report.

Our funds, vehicles and accounts have been sorted based upon their primary investment strategies. However, the AUM and FPAUM presented for each line in the table includes certain investments from non-primary investment strategies, which are permitted by their investment mandates, for purposes of presenting the fees and other terms for such funds, vehicles and accounts.

Hedge Fund Platform

Our hedge fund platform consists of strategic partnerships with third-party hedge fund managers in which KKR owns a minority stake. Our hedge fund partnerships offer a range of alternative investment strategies, including long/short equity, hedge fund-of-funds and energy credit investments. This principally consists of a 39.6% interest in Marshall Wace LLP (together with its affiliates, "Marshall Wace"), a global alternative investment manager specializing in long/short equity products. We also own (i) a 39.9% interest in PAAMCO Prisma Holdings, LLC ("PAAMCO Prisma"), an investment manager focused on liquid alternative investment solutions, including hedge fund-of-fund portfolios, and (ii) a 24.9% interest in BlackGold Capital Management L.P. ("BlackGold"), a credit-oriented investment manager focused on energy and hard asset investments.

Capital Markets

Our Capital Markets business line is comprised of our global capital markets business, which is integrated with KKR’s other asset management business lines, and serves our firm, our portfolio companies and third-party customers by developing and implementing both traditional and non-traditional capital solutions for investments or companies seeking financing. These services include arranging debt and equity financing, placing and underwriting securities offerings, and providing other types of capital markets services that result in the firm receiving fees, including underwriting, placement, transaction and syndication fees, commissions, underwriting discounts, interest payments and other compensation, which may be payable in cash or securities, in respect of the activities described above. The third-party customers of our capital markets business include multi-national corporations, public and private companies, financial sponsors, mutual funds, pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, and hedge funds globally. Our capital markets business provides these third-party clients with differentiated access to capital through our distribution platform.

Our capital markets business underwrites credit facilities and arranges loan syndications and participations. When we are sole or lead arrangers of a credit facility, we may advance amounts to the borrower on behalf of other lenders, subject to repayment. When we underwrite an offering of securities on a firm commitment basis, we commit to buy and sell an issue of securities and generate revenue by purchasing the securities at a discount or for a fee. When we act in an agency capacity or best efforts basis, we generate revenue for arranging financing or placing securities with capital markets investors. We may also provide issuers with capital markets advice on capital structuring, access to markets, marketing considerations, securities pricing, and other aspects of capital markets transactions in exchange for a fee. Our capital markets business also provides syndication services in respect of co-investments in transactions participated in by KKR funds or third-party clients, which may entitle the firm to receive syndication fees, management fees and/or a carried interest.

The capital markets business has a global footprint, with local presence and licenses to carry out certain broker-dealer activities in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. Our flagship capital markets subsidiary is KKR Capital Markets LLC, an SEC-registered broker-dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA").

Principal Activities

Through our Principal Activities business line, we manage the firm’s own assets on our firm’s balance sheet and deploy capital to support and grow our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines.

Typically, the funds in our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines contractually require us, as general partner of the funds, to make sizable capital commitments. We believe making general partner commitments assists us in raising new funds from limited partners by demonstrating our conviction in a given fund’s strategy. A substantial portion of our Principal Activities business line has been dedicated to support our core private equity strategy, where we have committed to fund investors to invest a significant amount of our own capital alongside their core private equity investments. Our commitments to fund capital also occurs where we are the holder of the subordinated notes or the equity tranche of investment vehicles that we sponsor, including structured transactions. We also use our balance sheet to bridge investment activity during fundraising, for example by funding investments for new funds and acquiring investments to establish a track record for new investment strategies. We also use our own capital to bridge capital selectively for our funds’ investments or finance strategic transactions, although the financial results of an acquired business may be reported in our other business lines.

Our Principal Activities business line also provides the required capital to fund the various commitments of our Capital Markets business line when underwriting or syndicating securities, or when providing or arranging term loan commitments for transactions involving our portfolio companies and for third parties. Our Principal Activities business line also holds assets that are utilized to satisfy regulatory requirements for our Capital Markets business line and risk retention requirements for certain investment vehicles.

We also make opportunistic investments through our Principal Activities business line, which include co-investments alongside our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies funds as well as Principal Activities investments that do not involve our Private Equity, Real Assets, or Credit and Liquid Strategies funds.

We endeavor to use our balance sheet strategically and opportunistically to generate an attractive risk-adjusted return on equity in a manner that is consistent with our fiduciary duties, in compliance with applicable laws, and consistent with our one-firm approach.

The chart below presents the holdings of our Principal Activities business line by asset class as of June 30, 2023.

Holdings by Asset Class (1)

(1)General partner funded commitments to our funds are included in the various asset classes shown above. Assets and revenues of other asset managers with which KKR has formed strategic partnerships where KKR does not hold more than 50% ownership interest are not included in our Principal Activities business line but are reported in the financial results of our other business lines.

Core Private Equity

As of June 30, 2023, core private equity investments account for over 30% of the investments on our balance sheet. Core private equity consists of investments anticipated to be held for a longer holding period and which possess a lower anticipated risk profile than our traditional private equity investments. Our core private equity investments are made in companies that, among other things, we believe are more stable, and typically with lower leverage over our holding period than those companies in which our traditional private equity investments are made. We believe our core private equity investments should generate earnings that compound over a long period of time. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of our core private equity investments on the balance sheet was $6.2 billion, resulting in an inception to date gross IRR of 20%. "Investments" as referenced above is a term used solely for purposes of financial presentation of a portion of our balance sheet and includes majority ownership of subsidiaries that operate our asset management, broker-dealer and other businesses, including the general partner interests of our investment funds.

Insurance

Our insurance business is operated by Global Atlantic, which we acquired on February 1, 2021. As of June 30, 2023, KKR owns a 63.3% economic interest in Global Atlantic with the balance of Global Atlantic owned by third-party investors and Global Atlantic employees. Following the Global Atlantic acquisition, Global Atlantic continues to operate as a separate business with its existing brands and management team. Since the first quarter of 2021, we have presented Global Atlantic's financial results as a separate reportable segment.

Global Atlantic is a leading retirement and life insurance company that provides a broad suite of protection, legacy and savings products to customers and reinsurance solutions to clients across individual and institutional markets. Global Atlantic focuses on target markets that it believes support issuing products that have attractive risk and return characteristics. These markets allow Global Atlantic to leverage its strength in distribution and to deploy shareholder capital opportunistically across various market environments.

Global Atlantic primarily offers individual customers fixed-rate annuities, fixed-indexed annuities, and targeted life products through a network of banks, broker-dealers, and insurance agencies. Global Atlantic provides its institutional clients customized reinsurance solutions, including block, flow and pension risk transfer ("PRT") reinsurance, as well as funding agreements. Global Atlantic’s assets generally increase when individual markets sales and reinsurance transactions exceed run-off of in-force policies. Global Atlantic primarily generates income by earning a spread on assets under management, as the difference between its net investment income and the cost of policyholder benefits. Global Atlantic also earns fees paid by policyholders on certain types of contracts and fees paid by third-party investors, which are reported in the asset management segment. As of June 30, 2023, Global Atlantic served approximately three million policyholders.

Global Atlantic inflows are derived from new business production in its individual and institutional markets channels. Global Atlantic expects new business production from its individual markets channel and certain institutional markets products to be largely consistent quarter over quarter while exhibiting growth over time, subject to market and business risks. In contrast, Global Atlantic expects block reinsurance transactions generated in the institutional markets channel to be episodic rather than steady quarter over quarter. Similarly, funding agreements issued in the funding agreement backed note ("FABN") program are subject to capital markets conditions and are not expected to be consistent quarter over quarter.

Global Atlantic also sponsors co-investment vehicles (the "Ivy Vehicles") to participate alongside Global Atlantic in certain block, flow, PRT and other reinsurance transactions that Global Atlantic enters into during the vehicles’ respective investment period. Ivy Vehicles provide third-party capital to support reinsurance transactions and do not get consolidated into our financial statements. As of June 30, 2023, third parties have committed capital to the Ivy Vehicles of approximately $3.3 billion, of which $1.3 billion has been deployed.

Business Environment

Economic and Market Conditions

Our asset management and insurance businesses are materially affected by the economic conditions of, and financial markets in, the United States, the European Union, China, Japan, and other countries. Global and regional economic conditions can each have substantial impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations in various ways, including the valuations of our investments, our ability to exit these investments profitably, our ability to raise capital from investors, and our ability to make new investments.

Economic Conditions

During the second quarter of 2023, many countries and regions, including the United States, began to experience a partial global economic recovery. In the second quarter of 2023, strong economic activity continued to be adversely impacted by the effects of monetary and fiscal policy tightening as years of fiscal stimulus from governments and accommodative monetary policy from global central banks began to wane and central banks took measures to combat inflationary pressures in many major economies around the world. Although certain inflation indicators continued to show signs of slowing, inflation (particularly core and services-related inflation) has continued to present headwinds for many countries and regional economies in which we operate. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board remains focused on managing inflation and has continued to raise interest rates in the second quarter of 2023. While the European Central Bank decelerated its pace of interest rate hikes, it has indicated that it will also remain focused on managing inflation. As a result of these and other actions by central banks, the combination of high rates and more muted, but persistently high, inflation continued to put pressure on corporate profits and consumer balance sheets with inflation generally remaining elevated in absolute terms.

Higher interest rates in conjunction with slower growth or weaker currencies in some emerging market economies have caused, and may further cause, the default risk of these countries to increase, and this could impact the operations or value of our investments that operate in these regions. Areas that have central bank quantitative easing or tightening campaigns affecting their interest rates relative to the United States could potentially experience further currency volatility relative to the U.S. dollar. Relatedly, foreign exchange rates are often affected by countries’ monetary and fiscal responses to inflationary trends. Foreign exchange rates have a substantial impact on the valuations of our investments that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Currency volatility can also affect our businesses and investments that deal in cross-border trade.

Labor disputes, shortages of material and skilled labor, work stoppages and increasing labor costs can also adversely impact us and the assets we manage. Despite various economic headwinds, several key economic indicators in the U.S., including GDP growth, have demonstrated resilience in the second quarter of 2023. In the second quarter of 2023, the prospects of artificial intelligence (AI) began to be reflected in market prices and valuations of companies operating in its related industries. At the same time, however, significant labor shortages continued to be a headwind to economic growth. During the second quarter of 2023, growth in economic activity and demand for goods and services contributed to inflationary pressures. In addition, shifting geopolitics in countries such as China, Russia, Belarus and the Ukraine (including less efficient supply chains) remain a concern. The ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, including the sanctions imposed in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and protectionist policies that persisted throughout 2022, have exacerbated and may further exacerbate these issues and trends globally, including by continuing to increase oil and gas prices and price volatility. Globally, energy and food inflation relating to disruptions to energy and commodity markets that persisted throughout much of 2022 and part of the first quarter of 2023 largely reversed course in the second quarter of 2023 with a faster than expected flow-through of lower oil, gas and commodity prices more generally into consumer energy and commodity prices. In the U.S., housing demand largely continues to outstrip housing supply. Conversely, the property sector in China remained a drag on its economy as a result of several factors, including a housing oversupply. U.S. office real estate continued to experience significant headwinds as a result of more challenging fundamentals. These and related concerns identified above and below continue to contribute to market volatility.

Economic conditions continued to vary, and often diverge, by country in Asia. In Japan, concerns of labor shortages, rising inflation, tightening monetary policy, significant volatility in currency markets and a return of international tourism were points of focus in the second quarter of 2023. In China, inflation growth was more muted, export growth was strong and international travel was more limited. Conversely to the continued monetary tightening that occurred in the U.S., Europe and Japan, monetary easing in China partially offset these other central bank actions in terms of global economic growth. China continued to experience a consumption-led, but bifurcated, recovery. While Chinese consumption continued to recover, the downbeat market tone in housing, together with lower energy prices and the sluggish labor market, continued to weigh on the entire Chinese economy.

Several relevant key economic indicators in the U.S. and in other countries and areas in which our business operates include:

Inflation.** The U.S. core consumer price index rose 4.8% on a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2023, down from 5.6% on a year-over-year basis as of March 31, 2023. Euro Area core inflation was 5.5% as of June 30, 2023, down from 5.7% as of March 31, 2023. Core inflation in China was 0.4% on a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2023, down from 0.7% as of March 31, 2023. In Japan, core inflation rose to 2.6% on a year-over-year basis as of June 30, 2023, up from 2.3% on a year-over-year basis as of March 31, 2023.
Interest Rates.** The effective federal funds rate set by the Federal Reserve Board was 5.08% as of June 30, 2023, up from 4.83% as of March 31, 2023. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points in May and left interest rates unchanged in June. The short-term benchmark interest rate set by the European Central Bank was 4.0% as of June 30, 2023, up from 3.5% as of March 31, 2023. The short-term benchmark interest rate set by The People's Bank of China (PBOC) was 3.55% as of June 30, 2023, down from 3.65% as of March 31, 2023. The short-term benchmark interest rate set by the Bank of Japan was -0.1% as of June 30, 2023, unchanged from March 31, 2023.
GDP.** In the United States, real GDP is estimated to have expanded by 1.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to an expansion of 2.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Euro Area real GDP is estimated to have increased by 0.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, up from -0.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Real GDP in China is estimated to have increased by 0.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to growth of 2.2% reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. In Japan, real GDP is estimated to have increased by 0.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, down from 2.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
Unemployment.** The U.S. unemployment rate was 3.6% as of June 30, 2023, up from 3.5% as of March 31, 2023. Euro Area unemployment was 6.5% as of June 30, 2023, down from 6.6% as of March 31, 2023. The unemployment rate in China was 5.5% as of June 30, 2023, unchanged as of March 31, 2023. In addition, the unemployment rate in Japan was 2.6% as of June 30, 2023, down from 2.8% as of March 31, 2023.

Market Conditions

Equity, credit, commodity and foreign exchange markets in the United States and in other countries and areas in which we have made investments each may have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

In our asset management segment, many of our investments are in equities, so a change in global equity prices or in market volatility directly impacts the value of our investments and our profitability as well as our ability to realize investment gains and the receptiveness of fund investors to our investment products. Volatility across global equity and credit markets, alongside shifting liquidity conditions in new issue activity across equity and non-investment grade credit markets, have adversely impacted (and may continue to adversely impact) our financial results and the volume of capital markets activity, the level of transaction fees that our Capital Markets business line is able to earn, the valuation of our portfolio companies, sale activity and investment proceeds we realize, and our ability or our decision to deploy our and our funds' capital. For our investments that are publicly listed and thus have readily observable market prices, global equity market price declines had (and may continue to have) a direct adverse impact on our investment valuations and the timing of our realization opportunities. For many other of our investments, these markets had an indirect materially adverse impact on many of our investment valuations as we typically utilize market multiples as a critical input to ascertain fair value of our investments that do not have readily observable market prices.

In addition, many of our investments are in both non-investment grade and investment grade credit instruments. Many of our funds invest or have the flexibility to invest a significant portion of their assets in the equity, debt, loans or other securities of issuers that are based outside of the United States. A substantial amount of these investments consist of private equity investments made by our private equity funds. For example, as of June 30, 2023, approximately 50% of the capital invested in those funds was attributable to non-U.S. investments. In our insurance business, a change in equity prices also impacts Global Atlantic’s equity-sensitive annuity and life insurance products, including with respect to hedging costs related to and fee-income earned on those products. Our funds, our portfolio companies and Global Atlantic also rely on credit financing and the ability to refinance existing debt. Consequently, any decrease in the value of credit instruments that we have invested in or any increase in the cost of credit financing reduces our returns and decreases our net income. Tightening liquidity conditions in equity and credit capital markets affect the availability and cost of capital for us and our portfolio companies, and the increased cost of credit or degradation in debt financing terms may adversely impact our ability to identify, execute and exit investments on attractive terms. In addition, during periods of high interest rates, investors may favor certain investments like government debt, which they may view as producing a higher risk-adjusted return over investments in our funds, particularly if the spread

T able of Contents

between these other investments and investments in our funds declines, which may adversely affect our ability to raise capital for new funds.

In our insurance segment, periods of rising or higher interest rates as we are currently experiencing may result in differing impacts on Global Atlantic’s business. Periods of rising or higher interest rates can benefit Global Atlantic’s results of operations and financial condition because we generally expect the yield on new investment purchases and income from any floating rate investments held in Global Atlantic’s investment portfolio to increase as interest rates rise. Higher interest rates also generally tend to increase the demand for certain of Global Atlantic’s products because the benefits and solutions Global Atlantic can offer to clients may become more attractive, potentially resulting in higher new business volumes. Rising rates are also expected to result in decreases to certain policy liability reserves as a result of new accounting guidance which Global Atlantic adopted effective January 1, 2023 (with a transition date of January 1, 2021) for insurance companies that issue or reinsure long-duration contracts such as life insurance and annuities. For a further discussion of this guidance, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Adoption of new accounting pronouncements" in our financial statements.

Higher interest rates can also have a negative impact on Global Atlantic. For example, higher policyholder surrenders may occur in response to rising interest rates as more attractive products become available to policyholders in a higher rate environment. The majority of our investments at Global Atlantic are in investment grade credit instruments. Sales of those investments at a loss, for example to raise cash to meet policyholder obligations upon surrender earlier than expected maturity or as Global Atlantic rotates out of investments acquired with new reinsurance transactions to our desired asset mix during a period of rising or higher rates compared to when the investment was acquired, is expected to decrease our net income in that period and such decrease could be significant. Global Atlantic also expects that in a higher rate environment, Global Atlantic will generally have a higher cost of insurance on new business, including higher hedging costs, as the benefits to policyholders on new business will be generally higher. If Global Atlantic fails to adequately cash flow match liabilities sold with higher benefits and interest rates fall while Global Atlantic holds that liability, Global Atlantic may not generate its expected earnings on those liabilities. In addition, rising interest rates will decrease the fair value of Global Atlantic’s credit investments and the value of embedded derivatives associated with funds withheld reinsurance transactions. Global Atlantic expects that substantially all of its unrealized losses will not be realized as it intends to hold these investments until recovery of the losses, which may be at maturity, as part of its asset liability cash-flow matching strategy. However, if the market or industry- or company-specific factors relating to these investments deteriorate meaningfully, Global Atlantic may be required to recognize an impairment to goodwill and may realize losses as a result of credit defaults or impairments on investments, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, commodity prices are generally expected to rise in inflationary environments. Our Real Assets business line portfolio contains energy real asset investments, and certain of our other Private Equity, Real Assets and Credit and Liquid Strategies business line strategies have investments in or related to the energy sector. The value of these investments is heavily influenced by the price of natural gas and oil. Changes in foreign exchange rates, unless hedged, can materially impact various aspects of our business and financial results, including, but not limited to, the valuations of our non-U.S. investments, the success of fundraising from non-U.S. investors, and the attractiveness of investment opportunities in countries outside of the United States.

Several relevant key market indicators in the U.S. and in other countries and areas which constitute our business environment include:

Equity Markets.** For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, global equity markets were positive, with the S&P 500 up 8.7% and the MSCI World Index up 7.0% on a total return basis including dividends. Equity market volatility as evidenced by the Chicago Board Options Exchange Market Volatility Index (VIX), a measure of volatility, ended at 13.6 as of June 30, 2023, decreasing from 18.7 as of March 31, 2023.
Credit Markets.** During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, U.S. investment grade corporate bond spreads (BofA Merrill Lynch US Corporate Index) narrowed by 15 basis points and U.S. high-yield corporate bond spreads (BofAML HY Master II Index) narrowed by 53 basis points. The non-investment grade credit indices were up during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, with the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index up 3.1% and the BAML US High Yield Index up 1.6%. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, 10-year government bond yields rose 37 basis points in the United States, rose 90 basis points in the UK, rose 10 basis points in Germany, fell 22 basis points in China, and rose 5 basis points in Japan.
Commodity Markets.** During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the 3-year forward price of WTI crude oil decreased approximately 2.7%%, and the 3-year forward price of natural gas decreased from approximately $4.42 per MMBtu as of March 31, 2023 to $3.56 per MMBtu as of June 30, 2023. The Japan spot LNG import price decreased to approximately $9.15 per MMBtu as of June 30, 2023 from approximately $18.59 per MMBtu as of March 31, 2023.

Foreign Exchange Rates.** For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the euro rose 0.6%, the British pound rose 3.0%, the Japanese yen fell 7.9%, and the Chinese renminbi fell 5.2%, respectively, relative to the U.S. dollar.

Other Trends, Uncertainties and Risks Related to Our Business

Please refer to the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report for important additional detail regarding the known trends or uncertainties and competitive conditions that have had or that are reasonably likely to have a material favorable or unfavorable impact on our businesses, including the impact of economic and market conditions on valuations of investments. These known trends, uncertainties and competitive conditions should be read in conjunction with this Business Environment section and the entire Risk Factor section.

Basis of Accounting and Key Financial Measures under GAAP

We manage our business using certain financial measures and key operating metrics since we believe these metrics measure the productivity of our operating activities. We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). See Note 2 “ Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our financial statements and “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” contained in this section below. Our key Segment and non-GAAP financial measures and operating metrics are discussed below.

Adoption of New Accounting Standard

Effective January 1, 2023, we adopted new accounting guidance for insurance and reinsurance companies that issue long-duration contracts (“LDTI”) as of February 1, 2021, the date of the GA Acquisition, on a full retrospective basis. For a more detailed discussion of the adoption of the LDTI, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report.

Key Segment and Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The following key segment and non-GAAP performance measures are used by management in making operational and resource deployment decisions as well as assessing the performance of KKR's business. They include certain financial measures that are calculated and presented using methodologies other than in accordance with GAAP. These performance measures as described below are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. Inc. and holders of exchangeable securities and as such represent the entire KKR business in total. In addition, these performance measures are presented without giving effect to the consolidation of certain investment funds and collateralized financing entities ("CFEs") that KKR manages.

We believe that providing these segment and non-GAAP performance measures on a supplemental basis to our GAAP results is helpful to stockholders in assessing the overall performance of KKR's business. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, where applicable are included under "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Reconciliations to GAAP Measures."

Modification of Segment Information and Non-GAAP Measures

In connection with the adoption of LDTI (see Note 2 in our financial statements), KKR reevaluated the manner in which it makes operational and resource deployment decisions and assesses the overall performance of KKR's business. Effective with the three months ended March 31, 2023, the items detailed below have changed with respect to the preparation of the reports used by KKR's chief operating decision makers. As a result, KKR has modified the presentation of its segment financial information with retrospective application to all prior periods presented. The most significant changes between KKR's current segment presentation and our previous segment presentation are as follows:

**(1)**implementation of the accounting changes as a result of LDTI within KKR’s Insurance Segment. KKR excludes (i) changes in the fair value of market risk benefits and other policy liabilities and the associated derivatives, (ii) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits, and (iii) losses at contract issue on payout annuities from the Insurance Segment Operating Earnings. These items are excluded from Insurance Segment Operating Earnings and we believe these items do not reflect the underlying performance of this business;

(2)Global Atlantic book value includes the impact of LDTI except for the impacts recorded in other comprehensive income, which are excluded from book value; and

T able of Contents

(3)reporting on a pre-tax basis Insurance Segment Operating Earnings (which was previously reported on an after-tax basis).

We believe these adjustments and changes reflect how management evaluates the Insurance business. We believe this approach enhances the transparency and visibility of the drivers of Global Atlantic’s underlying operating performance.

Fee Related Earnings, Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings, and Total Asset Management Segment Revenues are not impacted by LDTI or the adjustments and changes noted above. Therefore, these Non-GAAP measures have not been recast for the historical periods.

As discussed in Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements, our historical consolidated GAAP financial results have been recast to reflect the adoption of LDTI on a full retrospective basis. Certain of our historical Non-GAAP measures have been recast to reflect the adoption of LDTI along with the adjustments and changes noted above.

After-tax Distributable Earnings

After-tax distributable earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure of KKR’s earnings, which is derived from KKR’s reported segment results. After-tax distributable earnings is used to assess the performance of KKR’s business operations and measures the earnings potentially available for distribution to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business. After-tax distributable earnings is equal to Distributable Operating Earnings less Interest Expense, Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests and Income Taxes on Operating Earnings. Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock dividends have been excluded from After-tax Distributable Earnings, because the definition of Adjusted Shares used to calculate After-tax Distributable Earnings per Adjusted Share assumes that all shares of Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock have been converted to shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. Income Taxes on Operating Earnings represents the (i) amount of income taxes that would be paid assuming that all pre-tax Asset Management distributable earnings were allocated to KKR & Co. Inc. and taxed at the same effective rate, which assumes that all securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. were exchanged and (ii) the amount of income taxes on Insurance Segment Operating Earnings. Income taxes on Insurance Segment Operating Earnings represent the total current and deferred tax expense or benefit on income before taxes adjusted to eliminate the impact of the tax expense or benefit associated with the non-operating adjustments. Income Taxes on Operating Earnings includes the benefit of tax deductions arising from equity-based compensation, which reduces operating income taxes during the period. Equity based compensation expense is excluded from After-tax Distributable Earnings, because (i) KKR believes that the cost of equity awards granted to employees does not contribute to the earnings potentially available for distributions to its equity holders or reinvestment into its business and (ii) excluding this expense makes KKR’s reporting metric more comparable to the corresponding metric presented by other publicly traded companies in KKR’s industry, which KKR believes enhances an investor’s ability to compare KKR’s performance to these other companies. If tax deductions from equity-based compensation were to be excluded from Income Taxes on Operating Earnings, KKR’s After-tax Distributable Earnings would be lower and KKR’s effective tax rate would appear to be higher, even though a lower amount of income taxes would have actually been paid or payable during the period. KKR separately discloses the amount of tax deduction from equity-based compensation for the period reported and the effect of its inclusion in After-tax Distributable Earnings for the period. KKR makes these adjustments when calculating After-tax Distributable Earnings in order to more accurately reflect the net realized earnings that are expected to be or become available for distribution to KKR’s equity holders or reinvestment into KKR’s business. However, After-tax Distributable Earnings does not represent and is not used to calculate actual dividends under KKR’s dividend policy, which is a fixed amount per period, and After-tax Distributable Earnings should not be viewed as a measure of KKR’s liquidity.

Book Value

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 net assets presented on a basis that (i) excludes the net assets that are allocated to investors in KKR’s investment funds and other noncontrolling interest holders, (ii) includes the net assets that are attributable to certain securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc., and (iii) includes KKR’s ownership of the net assets of Global Atlantic. 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 investors in KKR’s investment funds and other noncontrolling interest holders. KKR's book value includes the net impact of KKR's tax assets and liabilities as calculated under GAAP. Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock has been included in book value, because the definition of adjusted shares used to calculate book value per adjusted share assumes that all shares of Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock have been converted to shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. To calculate Global Atlantic book value and to make it more comparable with the corresponding metric presented by other publicly traded companies in Global Atlantic’s industry, Global Atlantic book value excludes (i) accumulated other comprehensive income and (ii) accumulated change in fair value of reinsurance balances and related assets, net of income tax.

Distributable Operating Earnings

Distributable operating earnings is a non-GAAP performance measure that KKR believes is useful to stockholders as it provides a supplemental measure of our operating performance without taking into account items that KKR does not believe arise from or relate directly to KKR's operations. Distributable Operating Earnings excludes: (i) equity-based compensation charges, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) strategic corporate related charges and (iv) non-recurring items, if any. Strategic corporate related charges arise from corporate actions and consist primarily of (i) impairments, (ii) transaction costs from strategic acquisitions, and (iii) depreciation on real estate that KKR owns and occupies. Inter-segment transactions are not eliminated from segment results when management considers those transactions in assessing the results of the respective segments. These transactions include (i) management fees earned by KKR as the investment adviser for Global Atlantic insurance companies and (ii) interest income and expense based on lending arrangements where one or more KKR subsidiaries borrow from a Global Atlantic insurance subsidiary. Inter-segment transactions are recorded by each segment based on the definitive documents that contain arms' length terms and comply with applicable regulatory requirements. Distributable Operating Earnings represents operating earnings of KKR’s Asset Management and Insurance segments.

Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Asset Management segment and is comprised of: (i) Fee Related Earnings, (ii) Realized Performance Income, (iii) Realized Performance Income Compensation, (iv) Realized Investment Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income Compensation. Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) unrealized gains (losses) on investments, (ii) unrealized carried interest, and (iii) related unrealized carried interest compensation (i.e. the carry pool). Management fees earned by KKR as the adviser, manager or sponsor for its investment funds, vehicles and accounts, including its Global Atlantic insurance companies, are included in Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings.
Insurance Segment Operating Earnings is the segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and to assess the performance of the Insurance segment. This measure is presented before income taxes and is comprised of: (i) Net Investment Income, (ii) Net Cost of Insurance, (iii) General, Administrative, and Other Expenses, and (iv) Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests. The non-operating adjustments made to derive Insurance Segment Operating Earnings excludes the impact of: (i) investment gains (losses) which include realized gains (losses) related to asset/liability matching investments strategies and unrealized investment gains (losses) and (ii) non-operating changes in policy liabilities and derivatives which includes (a) changes in the fair value of market risk benefits and other policy liabilities measured at fair value and related benefit payments, (b) fees attributed to guaranteed benefits, (c) derivatives used to manage the risks associated with policy liabilities, and (d) losses at contract issuance on payout annuities. Insurance Segment Operating Earnings includes (i) realized gains and losses not related to asset/liability matching investments strategies and (ii) the investment management costs that are earned by KKR as the investment adviser of the Global Atlantic insurance companies.

Fee Related Earnings

Fee related earnings is a performance measure used to assess the Asset Management segment’s generation of profits from revenues that are measured and received on a recurring basis and are not dependent on future realization events. KKR believes this measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the profitability of KKR’s fee generating asset management and capital markets businesses and other recurring revenue streams. FRE equals (i) Management Fees, including fees paid by the Insurance segment to the Asset Management segment and fees paid by certain insurance co-investment vehicles, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (x) Fee Related Compensation, and (y) Other Operating Expenses.

Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of Incentive Fees from certain AUM that has an indefinite term and for which there is no immediate requirement to return invested capital to investors upon the realization of investments. Fee related performance revenues consists of performance fees (i) to be received from our investment funds, vehicles and accounts on a recurring basis, and (ii) that are not dependent on a realization event involving investments held by the investment fund, vehicle or account.
Fee Related Compensation refers to the compensation expense, excluding equity-based compensation, paid from (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, and (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues.
Other Operating Expenses represents the sum of (i) occupancy and related charges and (ii) other operating expenses.

Total Asset Management Segment Revenues

Total Asset Management Segment Revenues is a performance measure that represents the realized revenues of the Asset Management segment (which excludes unrealized carried interest and unrealized net gains (losses) on investments) and is the sum of (i) Management Fees, (ii) Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net, (iii) Fee Related Performance Revenues, (iv) Realized Performance Income, and (v) Realized Investment Income. KKR believes that this performance measure is useful to stockholders as it provides additional insight into the realized revenues generated by KKR's asset management segment.

Other Terms and Capital Metrics

Adjusted Shares

Adjusted shares represents shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. outstanding under GAAP adjusted to include (i) the number of shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. assumed to be issuable upon conversion of the Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and (ii) certain securities exchangeable into shares of common stock of KKR & Co. Inc. 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.

Assets Under Management

Assets under management represent the assets managed, advised or sponsored by KKR from which KKR is entitled to receive management fees or performance income (currently or upon a future event), general partner capital, and assets managed, advised or sponsored 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 or sponsored 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 and certain co-investment vehicles; (ii) uncalled capital commitments from these funds, including uncalled capital commitments from which KKR is currently not earning management fees or performance income; (iii) the asset value of the Global Atlantic insurance companies; (iv) the par value of outstanding CLOs; (v) KKR's pro rata portion of the AUM of hedge fund and other managers in which KKR holds an ownership interest; (vi) all of the AUM of KKR's strategic BDC partnership; (vii) the acquisition cost of invested assets of certain non-US real estate investment trusts and (viii) the value of other assets managed or sponsored 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 (i) is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in the governing documents of the investment funds, vehicles, accounts or other entities whose capital is included in this definition, (ii) includes assets for which KKR does not act as an investment adviser, and (iii) is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.

Capital Invested

Capital invested is the aggregate amount of capital invested by (i) KKR’s investment funds and Global Atlantic insurance companies, (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.

Fee Paying AUM

Fee paying AUM 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 performance income 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.

Uncalled Commitments

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 and the amount of uncalled commitments is not reduced by capital invested using borrowings under an investment fund’s subscription facility until capital is called from our fund investors. 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 and carry paying co-investment vehicles to make future investments. Uncalled commitments are not reduced for investments completed using fund-level investment financing arrangements or investments we have committed to make but remain unfunded at the reporting date.

Fees and Other

Total Fees and Other for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily as a result of the increase in transaction fees and management fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings."

The increase in management fees was primarily attributable to (i) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at Ascendant Fund (a middle market focused traditional private equity strategy), Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III, and Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors II, and (ii) management fees earned on assets managed by KJRM. The increase was partially offset by a lower level of management fees from Asian Fund III due to the sale of investments that resulted in a decrease in its fee base, which is capital invested.

T able of Contents

Management fees due from consolidated investment funds and other vehicles are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. However, because these amounts are funded by, and earned from, noncontrolling interests, upon consolidation under GAAP, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds and other vehicles is increased by the amount of fees that are eliminated. Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other vehicles were not consolidated. For a more detailed discussion on the factors that affect our management fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings."

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as a result of a higher level of fee credits owed to consolidated investments funds and other vehicles, which are eliminated upon consolidation. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds and other vehicles are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. However, because these amounts are owed to noncontrolling interests, upon consolidation under GAAP, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds and other vehicles is decreased by the amount of fee credits that are eliminated. Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other vehicles were not consolidated. Transaction and monitoring fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Furthermore, transaction fees earned in our capital markets business are not shared with fund investors. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in our revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was positive primarily due to the net appreciation of the underlying investments at many of our unconsolidated carry earning investment funds, most notably Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and Next Generation Technology Growth Fund II. Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was negative primarily due to the net depreciation of the underlying investments at many of our carry earning investment funds, most notably Americas Fund XII and Asian Fund III.

KKR calculates the carried interest that would be due to KKR for each investment fund, pursuant to the fund agreements, as if the fair value of the underlying investments were realized as of the reporting date, irrespective of whether such amounts have been realized. Since the fair value of the underlying investments varies between reporting periods, it is necessary to make adjustments to the amounts recorded as carried interest to reflect either (a) positive performance, resulting in an increase in the carried interest allocated to the general partner or (b) negative performance that would cause the amount due to KKR to be less than the amount previously recognized, resulting in a negative adjustment to carried interest allocated to the general partner. In each case, it is necessary to calculate the carried interest on cumulative results compared to the carried interest recorded to date and to make the required positive or negative adjustments.

Investment Income (Loss) - Asset Management

For additional information about net gains (losses) from investment activities, see Note 5 "Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities - Asset Management" in our financial statements.

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the three months ended June 30, 2023

The net gains from investment activities for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were comprised of net realized losses of $(389.3) million and net unrealized gains of $959.4 million.

Investment gains and losses relating to our general partner capital interest in our unconsolidated funds are not reflected in our discussion and analysis of Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities. Our economics associated with these gains and losses are reflected in Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) as described above.

Realized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net realized losses related primarily to the (i) realized losses for Envision Healthcare Corporation (health care sector) and Hilding Anders International AB (consumer products sector) and (ii) losses from the sales of revolving credit facilities. Partially offsetting these realized losses were realized gains on certain foreign exchange forward contracts.

T able of Contents

Unrealized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net unrealized gains were driven by mark-to-market gains primarily relating to (i) Exact Holding B.V. (technology sector), which is held in one of our consolidated core private equity funds, (ii) USI, Inc. (financial services sector), (iii) certain investments held in our consolidated CLOs, and (iv) the reversal of previously recognized unrealized losses relating to the realization activity described above. These unrealized gains were partially offset by mark-to-market losses primarily relating to (i) PetVet Care Centers, LLC (health care sector) and GenesisCare Pty Ltd. (health care sector), which are held in one of our consolidated core private equity funds, and (ii) debt obligations of our consolidated CLOs.

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the three months ended June 30, 2022

The net losses from investment activities for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were comprised of net realized gains of $550.0 million and net unrealized losses of $(2,435.4) million.

Realized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net realized gains related primarily to the sales of our investments in Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), Internet Brands, Inc. (technology sector) held in one of our consolidated funds and the sales of certain real estate equity investments that were held in Real Estate Partners Americas II. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses primarily relating to certain investments held in our consolidated alternative credit funds.

Unrealized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net unrealized losses were driven primarily by mark-to-market losses from (i) Crescent Energy Company (NYSE: CRGY), (ii) Söderberg & Partners (financial services sector), and (iii) investments held in our consolidated credit funds. These unrealized losses were partially offset by mark-to-market gains related to (i) certain investments held in our consolidated energy funds, and (ii) certain investments held in our consolidated core real estate funds.

For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's realized investment income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results". For additional information about net gains (losses) from investment activities, see Note 5 "Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities - Asset Management" in our financial statements.

Dividend Income

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the most significant dividends received included (i) $85.3 million from certain investments held in our consolidated open-ended core infrastructure fund, Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund, (ii) $47.8 million from Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc. (Infrastructure: transportation sector), which is held in our consolidated core private equity funds and (iii) $31.3 million from certain investments held in our consolidated opportunistic real estate equity and credit funds. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the most significant dividends received included (i) $71.8 million from investments held in our consolidated real estate core plus equity and opportunistic real estate equity funds and (ii) $8.9 million from our investment in Inkling Holdings LLC (media sector).

Significant dividends from portfolio companies and consolidated funds are generally not recurring quarterly dividends, and while they may occur in the future, their size and frequency are variable. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's dividend income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results."

Interest Income

The increase in interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to (i) the impact of closing CLOs that are consolidated subsequent to June 30, 2022, (ii) higher interest rates on floating rate investments held in consolidated CLOs and our consolidated private credit funds, and (iii) a higher level of interest income from certain of our consolidated private credit funds, related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results."

T able of Contents

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to (i) the increase in the amount of borrowings outstanding from certain consolidated funds and other vehicles, (ii) impact of closing CLOs that are consolidated subsequent to June 30, 2022, (iii) higher interest rates on floating rate debt obligations held in consolidated CLOs, and (iv) the impact of issuances of our senior notes after June 30, 2022. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest expense, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures."

Expenses - Asset Management

Compensation and Benefits Expense

The increase in compensation and benefits expense during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to accrued carried interest compensation in the current period compared to the reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation in the prior period. Partially offsetting the increase is a lower level of accrued discretionary cash compensation resulting from a lower level of asset management segment revenues in the current period.

General, Administrative and Other

The increase in general, administrative and other expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a higher level of information technology and other administrative costs in connection with the overall growth of the firm as well as a higher level of expenses from our consolidated investment funds and CLOs due to the impact of consolidating certain new funds and CLOs subsequent to June 30, 2022. The increase was partially offset by a lower level of expenses reimbursable by our unconsolidated investment funds and a lower level of broken-deal expenses.

The level of broken-deal expenses can vary significantly period to period based upon a number of factors, the most significant of which are the number of potential investments being pursued for our investment funds, the size and complexity of investments being pursued and the number of investment funds currently in their investment period.

In periods of increased fundraising and to the extent that we use third parties to assist in our capital raising efforts, our General, Administrative and Other are expected to increase accordingly. Similarly, our General, Administrative and Other expenses are expected to increase as a result of increased levels of professional and other fees incurred as part of due diligence related to strategic acquisitions and new product development.

Net Premiums

Net premiums increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to higher initial premiums related to a larger number of reinsurance transactions with life contingencies assumed during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and the timing of retrocessions to third party reinsurers during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The initial premiums on assumed reinsurance were offset by a comparable increase in policy reserves reported within net policy benefits and claims (as discussed below).

Net gains on derivative instruments

The decrease in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest payable for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by the change in fair value of the underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio, which is primarily comprised of fixed maturity securities (designated as trading for accounting purposes), mortgage and other loan receivables, and other investments. The underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio decreased in value in the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a smaller increase in market interest rates as compared to a decrease in value in the three months ended June 30, 2022, due to a comparatively larger increase in market interest rates.

The increase in the fair value of equity index options was primarily driven by the performance of the indexes upon which call options are based. Global Atlantic purchases equity index options to hedge the market risk of embedded derivatives in indexed universal life and fixed-indexed annuity products (the change in which is accounted for in net policy benefits and claims). The majority of Global Atlantic's equity index call options are based on the S&P 500 Index, which increased during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The decrease in the fair value of equity futures contracts was driven primarily by the performance of equity markets. Global Atlantic purchases equity futures primarily to hedge the market risk in Global Atlantic's variable annuity products which are accounted for in net policy benefits and claims. The majority of Global Atlantic's equity futures are based on the S&P 500 Index, which increased during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease during the three months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in respectively, a loss, and a gain, on equity futures contracts in the respective periods.

The decrease in the fair value of interest rate contracts was driven by an increase in market interest rates during both the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the three months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in a loss on interest rate contracts in both periods, respectively.

The increase in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest receivable was primarily due to narrowing of credit spreads during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a widening of credit spreads during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The components of net other investment losses were as follows:

Net other investment losses	$	(195,794)	$	(1,281,692)	$	1,085,898

The decrease in net other investment losses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net other investment losses for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to (i) a decrease in unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities classified as trading which was primarily due to a smaller relative increase in interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and (ii) a decrease in realized losses on available-for-sale fixed maturity debt securities which was primarily due to a decrease in portfolio rotation activity.

Offsetting these gains were (i) unrealized losses on real estate investments accounted at fair value under investment company accounting during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as a result of higher interest and capitalization rates, (ii) a decrease in realized gains on investments not supporting asset-liability matching strategies, and (iii) a decrease in realized gains on funds withheld at interest receivable portfolio.

Expenses

Net policy benefits and claims

Net policy benefits and claims increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) a smaller relative gain on market risk benefits due to a smaller relative increase in interest rates in the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 (ii) an increase in net flows from both individual and institutional market channel sales, (iii) higher funding costs on new business, and (iv) higher initial reserves assumed related to an increase in new reinsurance transactions with life contingencies in the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, and the timing of retrocessions to third party reinsurers, and (v) an increase in the value of embedded derivatives in Global Atlantic's indexed universal life and fixed indexed annuity products, as a result of higher equity market returns. (As discussed above under "Revenues–Net investment-related gains (losses)–Net gains on derivatives instruments," Global Atlantic purchases equity index options in order to hedge this risk, the fair value changes of which are accounted for in gains on derivative instruments, and generally offsetting the change in embedded derivative fair value reported in net policy benefits and claims).

Offsetting these increases was a decrease in variable annuity market risk benefit liabilities primarily due to higher equity market returns as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Amortization of policy acquisition costs

Amortization of policy acquisition costs increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to growth in Global Atlantic's individual market and institutional market channels, offset by the impact of amortizing negative VOBA and cost of reinsurance assets.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) a net increase in total debt outstanding, and (ii) an increase in interest expense on floating rate debt (i.e., Global Atlantic's revolving facility and fixed-to-floating swaps on its fixed rate debt) due to higher market rates.

Insurance expenses

Insurance expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to increased commission expenses and reinsurance transaction expense allowance.

General, administrative and other

General, administrative and other expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) increased employee compensation and benefits related expenses, and (ii) increased technology-related costs.

Other Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis - Unaudited)

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, income tax was an expense of $325.0 million compared to an income tax benefit of $102.5 million in the prior period. The income tax expense was primarily due to asset management net operating income in the current period as compared to a net operating loss in the prior period driven by capital allocation-based losses. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 19 "Income Taxes" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

T able of Contents

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended June 30, 2023 relates primarily to net income (loss) attributable to: (i) exchangeable securities representing ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership, (ii) third-party limited partner interests in consolidated investment funds, and (iii) interests that third party investors hold in Global Atlantic. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to net gains from investment activities primarily at certain of our consolidated investment funds, partially offset by a net loss in the current period allocable to interests that third-party investors hold in Global Atlantic.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.

Net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was positive in the current period as compared to a net loss in the prior period primarily due to capital allocation-based income and net gains from investment activities in the current period as compared to capital allocation-based losses and net losses from investment activities in the prior period, as described above.

Total Revenues - Asset Management	$	2,577,378	$	(473,442)	$	3,050,820

Fees and Other

Total Fees and Other for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily as a result of an increase in management fees and a decrease in fee credits, which were partially offset by a lower level of transaction fees.

For a more detailed discussion of the factors that affected our transaction fees during the period, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Earnings."

The increase in management fees was primarily attributable to (i) management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors II, Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III and Ascendant Fund, and (ii) management fees earned on assets managed by KJRM. The increase was partially offset by (i) management fees earned on new capital raised for North America Fund XIII in the first quarter of 2022 that was retroactive to the start of the fund's investment period, and (ii) a lower level of management fees from Asian Fund III due to the sale of investments that resulted in a decrease in its fee base, which is capital invested. There were no management fees that were retroactive to the start of the fund's investment period for the six months ended June 30, 2023 for North America Fund XIII.

T able of Contents

Fee credits decreased compared to the prior period as a result of a lower level of transaction fees in our Private Equity, Real Assets and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines in the current period. Fee credits owed to consolidated investment funds and other vehicles are eliminated upon consolidation under GAAP. However, because these amounts are owed to noncontrolling interests, upon consolidation under GAAP, KKR's allocated share of the net income from the consolidated investment funds is decreased by the amount of fee credits that are eliminated. Accordingly, net income (loss) attributable to KKR would be unchanged if such investment funds and other vehicles were not consolidated. Transaction and monitoring fees earned from KKR portfolio companies are not eliminated upon consolidation because those fees are earned from companies which are not consolidated. Furthermore, transaction fees earned in our capital markets business are not shared with fund investors. Accordingly, certain transaction fees are reflected in our revenues without a corresponding fee credit.

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was positive primarily due to the net appreciation of the underlying investments in many of our carry-earning investment funds, most notably Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and Global Infrastructure Investors III. Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was negative primarily due to the net depreciation of the underlying investments at many of our carry earning investment funds, most notably Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund II and Asian Fund III.

Investment Income (Loss) - Asset Management

Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net realized losses related primarily to (i) the realized losses of Envision Healthcare Corporation, (ii) realized losses on our alternative credit investments, Hilding Anders International AB and Chembulk Group (transportation sector), and (iii) realized losses from the sales of various revolving credit facilities. Partially offsetting these realized losses were realized gains primarily relating to the sale of our investment in KnowBe4, Inc. (NASDAQ: KNBE) and Flutter Entertainment PLC (LON: FLTR).

Unrealized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net unrealized gains were driven primarily by mark-to-market gains primarily relating to (i) BridgeBio Pharma, Inc.

The net losses from investment activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were comprised of net realized gains of $829.6 million and net unrealized losses of $(1,800.8) million.

Realized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

Unrealized Gains and Losses from Investment Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net unrealized losses were driven primarily by mark-to-market losses from (i) investments held in our consolidated credit funds, (ii) OutSystems Holdings S.A. (technology sector) and (iii) the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains relating to the realization activity described above. These unrealized losses were partially offset by mark-to-market gains related to (i) certain investments held in our consolidated energy funds, (ii) Viridor Limited (Infrastructure: energy and energy transition sector), and (iii) Clarify Health Solutions Inc. (healthcare sector).

Dividend Income

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the most significant dividends received included (i) $114.9 million from certain investments held in our consolidated open-ended core infrastructure fund, Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund, (ii) $60.6 million from our consolidated opportunistic real estate equity funds, and (iii) $47.8 million from Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc., which is held in one of our consolidated core private equity funds.

Interest Income

The increase in interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to (i) the impact of closing CLOs that are consolidated subsequent to June 30, 2022, (ii) higher interest rates on floating rate investments held in consolidated CLOs and our consolidated private credit funds, and (iii) a higher level of interest income from certain of our consolidated private credit funds, related to an increase in the amount of capital deployed. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest income, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results."

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to (i) the increase in the amount of borrowings outstanding from certain consolidated funds and other vehicles, (ii) impact of closing CLOs that are consolidated subsequent to June 30, 2022, (iii) higher interest rates on floating rate debt obligations held in consolidated CLOs, and (iv) the impact of issuances of KKR senior notes after June 30, 2022. For a discussion of other factors that affected KKR's interest expense, see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures."

Expenses - Asset Management

Compensation and Benefits Expenses

The increase in compensation and benefits expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to accrued carried interest compensation in the current period compared to the reversal of previously recognized carried interest compensation in the prior period. Partially offsetting the increase is a lower level of accrued discretionary cash compensation resulting from a lower level of asset management segment revenues in the current period.

General, Administrative and Other

The increase in general, administrative and other expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a higher level of information technology and other administrative costs in connection with the overall growth of the firm as well as a higher level of expenses from our consolidated investment funds and CLOs due to the impact of consolidating certain new funds and CLOs subsequent to June 30, 2022. The increase was partially offset by a lower level of expenses reimbursable by our unconsolidated investment funds and a lower level of broken-deal expenses.

Net Premiums

Net premiums increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to higher initial premiums related to a larger number of reinsurance transactions with life contingencies assumed during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was partially offset by higher retrocessions to third party reinsurers during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The initial premiums on assumed reinsurance were offset by a comparable increase in policy reserves reported within net policy benefits and claims (as discussed below).

Net gains on derivative instruments

The decrease in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest payable for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by the change in fair value of the underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio, which is primarily comprised of fixed maturity securities (designated as trading for accounting purposes), mortgage and other loan receivables, and other investments. The underlying investments in the funds withheld at interest payable portfolio increased in value in the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a small relative decrease in market interest rates as compared to a decrease in value in the six months ended June 30, 2022, due to a comparatively larger increase in market interest rates.

The decrease in the fair value of equity futures was driven primarily by the performance of equity markets. Global Atlantic purchases equity futures primarily to hedge the market risk in our variable annuity products which are accounted for in policy benefits and claims. The majority of Global Atlantic's equity futures are based on the S&P 500 Index, which increased during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in respectively, a loss, and a gain, on equity futures contracts in the respective periods.

The increase in the fair value of equity index options was primarily driven by the performance of the indexes upon which call options are based. Global Atlantic purchases equity index options to hedge the market risk of embedded derivatives in indexed universal life and fixed-indexed annuity products (the change in which is accounted for in net policy benefits and claims). The majority of Global Atlantic's equity index call options are based on the S&P 500 Index, which increased during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The increase in the fair value of interest rate contracts was driven by a small net decrease in otherwise volatile market interest rates over the course of the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to an increase in market interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2022, resulting in a loss on interest rate contracts in both periods, respectively.

The increase in the fair value of embedded derivatives on funds withheld at interest receivable was primarily due to a small narrowing of credit spreads during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to a widening of credit spreads during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Net investment-related gains (losses)	$	28,598	$	(2,510,106)	$	2,538,704

The increase in net other investment gains for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net other investment losses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, were primarily due to (i) an increase in unrealized gains on fixed maturity securities classified as trading which was primarily due to a decrease in interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to an increase in interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and (ii) a decrease in realized losses on available-for-sale fixed maturity debt securities which was primarily due to a decrease in portfolio rotation activity.

Offsetting these gains were (i) a decrease in unrealized gains on real estate investments at fair-value under investment company accounting due to higher interest and capitalization rates during the six months ended June 30, 2023, (ii) an increase in credit loss allowances on fixed maturity securities and mortgage and other loan receivables in the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was primarily due to an increase in the overall credit risk of Global Atlantic's loan portfolio, and (iii) a decrease in realized gains on investments not supporting asset-liability matching strategies.

Expenses

Net policy benefits and claims

Net policy benefits and claims increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) a loss on market risk benefits due to a decrease in interest rates in the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to a gain on market risk benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to an increase in rates, (ii) an increase in net flows from both individual and institutional market channel sales, (iii) higher funding costs on new business, (iv) higher initial reserves assumed related to an increase in new reinsurance transactions with life contingencies in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, and (v) an increase in the value of embedded derivatives in Global Atlantic's indexed universal life and fixed indexed annuity products, as a result of higher equity market returns. (As discussed above under "Revenues–Net investment-related gains (losses)–Net gains on derivatives instruments," Global Atlantic purchases equity index options in order to hedge this risk, the fair value changes of which are accounted for in gains on derivative instruments, and generally offsetting the change in embedded derivative fair value reported in net policy benefits and claims).

Offsetting these increases was an decrease in variable annuity market risk benefit liabilities primarily due to higher equity market returns.

Amortization of policy acquisition costs

Amortization of policy acquisition costs increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to growth in Global Atlantic's individual market and institutional market channels.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) a net increase in total debt outstanding, and (ii) an increase in interest expense on floating rate debt (i.e., Global Atlantic's revolving facility and fixed-to-floating swaps on its fixed rate debt) due to higher market rates.

Insurance expenses

Insurance expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to increased commission expenses and reinsurance transaction expense allowances.

General, administrative and other

General, administrative and other expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to increased employee compensation and benefits related expenses.

Other Consolidated Results of Operations (GAAP Basis - Unaudited)

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, income tax was an expense of $473.7 million compared to an income tax benefit of $65.9 million in the prior period. The income tax expense was primarily due to asset management net operating income in the current period as compared to a net operating loss in the prior period driven by capital allocation-based losses. For a discussion of factors that impacted KKR's tax provision, see Note 19 "Income Taxes" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests for the six months ended June 30, 2023 relates primarily to net income (loss) attributable to: (i) exchangeable securities representing ownership interests in KKR Group Partnership, (ii) third-party limited partner interests in consolidated investment funds, and (iii) interests that third-party investors hold in Global Atlantic. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to net gains from investment activities primarily at certain of our consolidated investment funds, partially offset by a net loss in the current period allocable to interests that third-party investors hold in Global Atlantic.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to KKR & Co. Inc.

Net income (loss) attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was positive in the current period as compared to a net loss in the prior period primarily due to capital allocation-based income and net gains from investment activities in the current period as compared to capital allocation-based losses and net losses from investment activities in the prior period, as described above.

The increase was primarily due to (i) unrealized gains on available-for-sale-securities from Global Atlantic that are recorded in other comprehensive income and (ii) net income attributable to KKR & Co. Inc. common stockholders, partially offset by repurchases of our common stock and dividends to common stockholders during the first six months of 2023.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (GAAP Basis - Unaudited)

The following is a discussion of our consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.

The consolidated statements of cash flows include the cash flows of our consolidated entities, which include certain consolidated investment funds, CLOs and certain variable interest entities formed by Global Atlantic notwithstanding the fact that we may hold only a minority economic interest in those investment funds and CFEs. The assets of our consolidated investment funds and CFEs, on a gross basis, can be substantially larger than the assets of our business and, accordingly, could have a substantial effect on the cash flows reflected in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The primary cash flow activities of our consolidated funds and CFEs involve: (i) capital contributions from fund investors; (ii) using the capital of fund investors to make investments; (iii) financing certain investments with indebtedness; (iv) generating cash flows through the realization of investments; and (v) distributing cash flows from the realization of investments to fund investors. Because our consolidated funds are treated as investment companies for accounting purposes, certain of these cash flow amounts are included in our cash flows from operations.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities

Our net cash provided (used) by operating activities was $(4.6) billion and $(3.1) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These amounts primarily included: (i) investments purchased (asset management), net of proceeds from investments (asset management) of $(7.7) billion and $(5.2) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, (ii) net realized gains (losses) on asset management investments of $(0.3) billion and $0.8 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, (iii) change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments (asset management) of $0.7 billion and $(1.8) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, (iv) capital allocation-based income (loss) of $1.1 billion and $(1.9) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, (v) net realized gains (losses) on insurance operations of $(1.5) billion and $0.4 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and (vi) interest credited to policyholder account balances (net of policy fees) (insurance) of $1.3 billion and $0.8 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Investment funds are investment companies under GAAP and reflect their investments and other financial instruments at fair value.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Investing Activities

Our net cash provided (used) by investing activities was $(3.6) billion and $(7.1) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our investing activities included: (i) investments purchased (insurance), net of proceeds from investments (insurance), of $(3.6) billion and $(5.3) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, (ii) the purchase of fixed assets of $(61.8) million and $(34.2) million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and (iii) the acquisition of KJRM, net of cash acquired of $(1.7) billion during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Analysis of Segment Operating Results

The following is a discussion of the results of our business on a segment basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the information included under "—Key Segment and Non- GAAP Performance Measures" and the financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. See "— Business Environment" for more information about factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results

The following tables set forth information regarding KKR's asset management segment operating results and certain key capital metrics for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Management Fees

The following table presents management fees by business line:


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022		Change
	($ in thousands)
Management Fees
Private Equity	$	320,081	$	299,099	$	20,982
Real Assets	201,590		161,707		39,883
Credit and Liquid Strategies	227,217		194,121		33,096
Total Management Fees	$	748,888	$	654,927	$	93,961

The increase in Private Equity management fees was primarily attributable to management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at Ascendant Fund, Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III, and Global Impact Fund II. The increase was partially offset by a lower level of management fees from Asian Fund III due to the sale of investments that resulted in a decrease in its fee base, which is capital invested. During the second quarter of 2023, approximately $11.7 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that is retroactive to the start of the relevant fund's investment period.

T able of Contents

The increase in Real Asset management fees was primarily attributable to (i) management fees earned from Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors II, which entered its investment period in the third quarter of 2022 resulting in management fees now being earned on this capital, (ii) a higher level of management fees earned from Global Atlantic due to an increase in assets being managed by KKR's Asset Management segment, and (iii) a higher level of management fees earned from Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund resulting from new capital raised. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in management fees earned from Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors as a result of entering its post-investment period in the third quarter of 2022, and now earns fees based on capital invested rather than capital committed. During the second quarter of 2023, approximately $0.5 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that is retroactive to the start of the relevant fund's investment period.

The increase in Credit and Liquid Strategies management fees was primarily attributable to (i) a higher level of management fees earned from Global Atlantic due to an increase in Global Atlantic's assets being managed by KKR's Asset Management segment and (ii) a higher level of management fees earned from our hedge fund partnership, Marshall Wace. The increase was partially offset by a lower level of management fees from certain SIG funds primarily due to (i) the sale of investments that resulted in a decrease in its fee base, which is capital invested and (ii) certain SIG funds, which no longer pay management fees as a result of us agreeing to waive the management fee.

Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net

The following table presents transaction and monitoring fees, net by business line:


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022		Change
	($ in thousands)
Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net
Private Equity	$	33,142	$	16,809	$	16,333
Real Assets	5,179		1,569		3,610
Credit and Liquid Strategies	1,493		4,322		(2,829)
Capital Markets	150,414		84,601		65,813
Total Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net	$	190,228	$	107,301	$	82,927

Our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines separately earn transaction and monitoring fees from portfolio companies, and under the terms of the management agreements with certain of our investment funds, we are generally required to share all or a portion of such fees with our fund investors. In most funds, transaction and monitoring fees are credited against fund management fees up to 100% of the amount of the transaction and monitoring fees attributable to that fund, which results in a decrease of our monitoring and transaction fees. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. Our Capital Markets business line earns transaction fees, which are not shared with fund investors.

The increase in transaction and monitoring fees, net is primarily due to a higher level of transaction fees earned in our Capital Markets business line. The increase in capital markets transaction fees was primarily due to an increase in the number of equity capital markets transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Overall, we completed 60 capital markets transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2023, of which 14 represented equity offerings and 46 represented debt offerings, as compared to 60 transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2022, of which 5 represented equity offerings and 55 represented debt offerings. We earn fees in connection with underwriting, syndication and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes.

Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with activity involving our private equity, real assets and credit funds as well as from third-party companies. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, approximately 16% of our transaction fees in our Capital Markets business line were earned from unaffiliated third parties as compared to approximately 25% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our transaction fees are comprised of fees earned in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, approximately 47% of our transaction fees were generated outside of North America. Our Capital Markets business line is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads, and volatility. Our Capital Markets business line does not generate monitoring fees.

Credit and Liquid Strategies	19,297		8,891		10,406
Total Fee Related Performance Revenues	$	28,352	$	9,999	$	18,353

Fee related performance revenues represent performance fees that are (i) expected to be received from our investment funds, vehicles and accounts on a recurring basis, and (ii) not dependent on a realization event involving investments held by the investment fund, vehicle or account. These performance fees are primarily earned from FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK) (our business development company), KKR Property Partners Americas ("KPPA") (our open-ended core plus real estate fund), KKR Real Estate Select Trust ("KREST") (our registered closed-end real estate equity fund), KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. ("KREF") (our real estate credit investment trust), and KJRM. Fee related performance revenues were higher for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period primarily due to (i) a higher level of performance revenues earned from FS KKR Capital Corp. compared to the prior period and (ii) performance revenues earned from KJRM in the current period.

Fee Related Compensation

The increase in fee related compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of compensation recorded in connection with the higher level of revenues included within fee related earnings.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of information technology, occupancy and other administrative costs in connection with the overall growth of the firm.

Fee Related Earnings

The increase in fee related earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of management fees across our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines and a higher level of transaction fees earned in our Capital Markets business line, partially offset by a higher level of fee related compensation and other operating expenses, as described above.

Realized carried interest in our Private Equity business line for the three months ended June 30, 2022 consisted primarily of realized proceeds from the sale of our investment in Internet Brands, Inc. held by our North America Fund XI.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, there was no realized carried interest earned in our Real Assets business line.

Incentive fees consist of performance fees earned from (i) our hedge fund partnerships, (ii) investment management agreements with KKR sponsored investment vehicles, and (iii) investment management agreements to provide KKR’s investment strategies to funds managed by a UK investment fund manager. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no incentive fees earned in our Private Equity and Real Asset business lines. Incentive fees in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period primarily as a result of a lower level of performance fees earned from a UK investment fund manager.

Realized Performance Income Compensation

The decrease in realized performance income compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a lower level of compensation recorded in connection with the lower level of realized performance income.

Realized Investment Income

The following table presents realized investment income in our Principal Activities business line:


	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022		Change
	($ in thousands)
Realized Investment Income
Net Realized Gains (Losses)	$	15,342	$	196,408	$	(181,066)
Interest Income and Dividends, Net	99,333		80,480		18,853
Total Realized Investment Income	$	114,675	$	276,888	$	(162,213)

The decrease in realized investment income is primarily due to a lower level of net realized gains, partially offset by a higher level of interest income and dividends, net. The amount of realized investment income depends on the transaction activity of our funds and balance sheet, which can vary from period to period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net realized gains were comprised of realized gains primarily from the sale of our investments in AppLovin Corporation, Pembina Gas Infrastructure Inc. (Infrastructure: midstream sector), and Kokusai Electric Corporation. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses on our private equity investment, Envision Healthcare Corporation, alternative credit investment Hilding Anders International AB, and from sales of various revolving credit facilities.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net realized gains were comprised of realized gains primarily from the sale of our investments in Fiserv, Inc., Internet Brands, Inc. and Max Healthcare Institute Limited (NSE: MAXHEALTH). Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which were realized losses from the sale of revolving credit facilities and various alternative credit strategy investments.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, interest income and dividends, net were comprised of (i) $88.0 million of interest income, primarily from our investments in CLOs and, to a lesser extent, our credit investments and cash balances, and (ii) $11.3 million of dividend distributions primarily from our Americas real estate credit and equity investments, as well as dividend distributions from our investments in Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc. and Seiyu Group (consumer products sector).

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, interest income and dividends, net were comprised of (i) $46.5 million of interest income, primarily from our investments in CLOs, and (ii) $34.0 million of dividend income primarily from our Americas real estate credit and equity investments, as well as a dividend distribution from our investment in Inkling Holdings LLC. See "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures."

Realized investment income (loss) includes the net income (loss) from KKR Capstone. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, total fees attributable to KKR Capstone were $24.0 million and total expenses attributable to KKR Capstone were $19.8 million. For KKR Capstone-related adjustments in reconciling asset management segment revenues to GAAP revenues see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Reconciliations to GAAP Measures."

New Capital Raised	1,992

Distributions and Other	(1,793)
Change in Value	4,178
June 30, 2023	$	170,139

AUM of our Private Equity business line was $170.1 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $4.3 billion, compared to $165.8 billion at March 31, 2023.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) an appreciation in investment value from Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and our core private equity strategy and (ii) new capital raised from Ascendant Fund and private equity vehicles customized for private wealth investors. Partially offsetting the increase was distributions to its investors primarily as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and North America Fund XI.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our traditional private equity investment portfolio increased 5%. This was comprised of a 17% increase in share prices of various publicly held investments and a 4% increase in value of our privately held investments. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our growth equity investment portfolio increased 5% and our core private equity investment portfolio increased 2%.

The most significant increases in the value of our publicly held investments were increases in AppLovin Corporation, J.B. Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals Limited (NYSE: JBCP), and BrightView Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BV). These increases were partially offset by decreases in the value of certain publicly held investments, the most significant of which was ZJLD Group Inc. (HKG: 6979) and PropertyGuru Group Limited (NYSE: PGRU). The prices of publicly held companies may experience volatile changes following the reporting period. See "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors, such as volatility, that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

T able of Contents

The most significant increases in the value of our privately held investments were increases in Kokusai Electric Corporation, Cloudera, Inc. (technology sector), and Exact Holding B.V. These increases in value on our privately held investments were partially offset by decreases in the value of certain other privately held investments, the most significant of which were PetVet Care Centers, LLC, Global Medical Response, Inc. (health care sector), and Accell Group N.V. (consumer products sector). The increased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to (i) individual company performance, (ii) an increase in the value of market comparables, and (iii) with respect to Kokusai Electric Corporation, an increase in valuation related to a partial sale transaction. The decreased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to an unfavorable business outlook. See "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors, that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

AUM of our Real Assets business line was $121.6 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.8 billion, compared to $120.8 billion at March 31, 2023.

The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised from Global Atlantic under our investment management agreements with Global Atlantic's insurance companies, Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund, and infrastructure vehicles customized for private wealth investors. Partially offsetting the increase was (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders and (ii) distributions to its investors as a result of realized proceeds, most notably distributions from Global Infrastructure Investors III.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our infrastructure investment portfolio increased 2%, the value of our opportunistic real estate equity investment portfolio remained flat, and the value of our energy investment portfolio decreased by 2%.

The most significant increases in value across our Real Assets portfolio were in CyrusOne Inc. (Infrastructure: asset leasing sector), Colonial Enterprises, Inc. (Infrastructure: midstream sector), and Refresco Group B.V. (manufacturing sector). These increases in value were partially offset by decreases in value relating primarily to various assets held in our real estate equity portfolio, ONNET Fibra Colombia S.A.S. (Infrastructure: telecommunications sector), and Crescent Energy Company. The increased valuations of individual companies or assets in the aggregate, generally related to individual company or asset performance. The decreased valuations of individual companies or assets in the aggregate, generally related to an increase in capitalization rates and/or discount rates, which impacted our real estate equity portfolio. The prices of publicly held companies may experience volatile changes following the reporting period.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from Global Atlantic, an open-ended asset based financing fund, the issuance of a European CLO, and our hedge fund partnership, Marshall Wace, and to a lesser extent (ii) appreciation in investment value across our leveraged credit and alternative credit investment funds and on assets managed by our hedge fund partnership, Marshall Wace. Partially offsetting the increase was (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, (ii) redemptions at Marshall Wace, and (iii) distributions and redemptions to its investors at certain leveraged credit funds.

FPAUM of our Private Equity business line was $103.7 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $1.4 billion compared to $102.3 billion at March 31, 2023.

The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised from our core private equity strategy portfolio, Ascendant Fund, and private equity vehicles customized for private wealth investors. Partially offsetting the increase was (i) a reduction in FPAUM for the write-off of Envision Healthcare Corporation and (ii) distributions to its investors primarily as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from Americas Fund XII.

Uncalled commitments from private equity and multi-strategy investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $17.4 billion at June 30, 2023, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.0%. The date on which we begin to earn fees (as specified above) is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time. If and when such management fees are earned, a portion of existing FPAUM may cease paying fees or pay lower fees, thus offsetting a portion of any new management fees earned.

FPAUM of our Real Assets business line was $106.1 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.4 billion, compared to $105.7 billion at March 31, 2023.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) new capital raised from Global Atlantic and infrastructure vehicles customized for private wealth investors and (ii) Asia Real Estate Partners II entering its investment period, resulting in management fees now being earned on this capital. Partially offsetting this increase were (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, and (ii) a change in fee base for Asia Real Estate Partners as a result of entering its post-investment period, during which we earn fees on invested capital rather than committed capital.

Uncalled commitments from real assets investment funds from which KKR is currently not earning management fees amounted to approximately $8.7 billion at June 30, 2023, which includes capital commitments reserved for follow-on investments for funds that have completed their investment periods. This capital will generally begin to earn management fees upon deployment of the capital or upon the commencement of the fund's investment period. The average annual management fee rate associated with this capital is approximately 1.2%. The date on which we begin to earn fees (as specified above) is not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for an extended period of time.

Uncalled Commitments

Private Equity

As of June 30, 2023, our Private Equity business line had $61.2 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $64.1 billion as of March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period, which was partially offset by new capital commitments from fund investors.

Real Assets

As of June 30, 2023, our Real Assets business line had $23.8 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $27.7 billion as of March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period, which was partially offset by new capital commitments from fund investors.

Credit and Liquid Strategies

As of June 30, 2023, our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line had $15.1 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $14.5 billion as of March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to new capital commitments from fund investors, which was partially offset by capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period.

Capital Invested

Private Equity

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our Private Equity business line had $3.2 billion of capital invested as compared to $5.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by a $4.1 billion decrease in capital invested in our traditional private equity strategy, partially offset by a $1.8 billion increase in capital invested in our core private equity strategy. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, 62% of capital deployed in private equity (including core and growth equity investments which includes impact investments) was in transactions in Europe, 35% was in North America, and 3% was in the Asia-Pacific region. The number of large private equity investments made in any quarterly or year-to-date period is volatile and, consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one period or a few periods may not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future periods.

Real Assets

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our Real Assets business line had $3.3 billion of capital invested as compared to $8.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by a $3.5 billion decrease in capital invested in our real estate strategy and a $1.3 billion decrease in our infrastructure strategy. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, 52% of capital deployed in real assets was in transactions in North America, 25% was in Europe, and 23% was in the Asia-Pacific region.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line had $3.1 billion of capital invested as compared to $4.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a lower level of capital deployed across our various private credit and direct lending strategies. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, 81% of capital deployed was in transactions in North America, 12% was in Europe, and 7% was in the Asia-Pacific region.

Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results

Effective January 1 , 2023, we adopted new accounting guidance for insurance and reinsurance companies that issue long-duration contracts (“LDTI”) as of February 1, 2021, the date of the GA Acquisition, on a full retrospective basis. For a more detailed discussion of the adoption of the LDTI, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements.

The following tables set forth information regarding KKR's insurance segment operating results and certain key operating metrics as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Pre-tax Operating Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests	(98,608)		(113,158)		14,550
Insurance Segment Operating Earnings	$	170,224	$	180,615	$	(10,391)

Insurance segment operating earnings

Insurance segment operating earnings decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to lower variable investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Net investment income

Net investment income increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) increased average assets under management due to growth in assets in the institutional market channel as a result of new reinsurance transactions and individual market channel sales from new business growth, (ii) increases in portfolio yields due to higher market interest rates on floating rate investments, and (iii) rotation into higher yielding assets. Offsetting these increases to net investment income was a decrease in variable investment income, primarily due to a decrease in net realized gains from the sale of investments not related to asset/liability matching strategies.

Net cost of insurance

Net cost of insurance increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) growth in reserves in the institutional market as a result of new reinsurance transactions and in the individual market as a result of new business volumes, and (ii) higher funding costs on new business originated.

General, administrative and other expenses

General and administrative expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) an increase in interest expense on floating rate debt (i.e., Global Atlantic's revolving facility and fixed-to-floating swaps on its fixed rate debt) due to higher market rates and higher total debt notional outstanding, (ii) increased employee compensation and benefits-related expenses, and (iii) increased technology-related costs.

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests

Net income attributable to non-controlling interests decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 in proportion to the decrease in insurance segment operating earnings for the comparable period. Net income attributable to non-controlling interests represents the proportionate interest in the insurance segment operating earnings attributable to other investors in Global Atlantic.

Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The following is a discussion of our Non-GAAP performance measures for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

After-tax Distributable Earnings	$	652,604	$	851,216	$	(198,612)

Distributable Operating Earnings

The decrease in distributable operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a lower level of asset management segment operating earnings and insurance segment operating earnings. For a discussion of the asset management and insurance segment operating earnings, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results" and "—Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results."

After-tax Distributable Earnings

The decrease in after-tax distributable earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a lower level of distributable operating earnings and an increase in interest expense, partially offset by a decrease in income taxes on operating earnings.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to issuances of debt securities by KKR's financing subsidiaries.

Income Taxes on Operating Earnings

The decrease in income taxes on operating earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a lower level of asset management segment operating earnings.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation included in income taxes on operating earnings was $10.5 million and $15.9 million, respectively. The inclusion of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation in After-tax Distributable Earnings had the effect of increasing this measure by 2%, for both the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Total Management Fees	$	1,487,044	$	1,279,855	$	207,189

The increase in Private Equity management fees was primarily attributable to management fees earned on new capital raised over the past twelve months at European Fund VI, Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III, and Ascendant Fund. The increase was partially offset by (i) management fees earned on new capital raised for North America Fund XIII in the first quarter of 2022 that was retroactive to the start of the fund's investment period, and (ii) a lower level of management fees from Asian Fund III due to the sale of investments that resulted in a decrease in its fee base, which is capital invested. There were no management fees that were retroactive to the start of the fund's investment period for the six months ended June 30, 2023 for North America Fund XIII. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately $20.7 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that is retroactive to the start of the relevant fund's investment period.

The increase in Real Asset management fees was primarily attributable to (i) management fees earned from Asia Pacific Infrastructure Investors II, which entered its investment period in the third quarter of 2022 resulting in management fees now being earned on this capital, (ii) a higher level of management fees earned from Global Atlantic due to an increase in assets being managed by KKR's Asset Management segment and (iii) management fees earned on assets managed by KJRM, which we acquired in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was partially offset by (i) a lower level of management fees from Asia Pacific Infrastructure as a result of entering its post-investment period in the third quarter of 2022 and, consequently, we now earn fees based on capital invested rather than capital committed. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately $0.5 million of management fees were earned on new capital raised that is retroactive to the start of the relevant fund's investment period.

Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net

The following table presents transaction and monitoring fees, net by business line:


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022		Change
	($ in thousands)
Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net
Private Equity	$	67,416	$	49,865	$	17,551
Real Assets	10,913		9,199		1,714
Credit and Liquid Strategies	1,777		14,418		(12,641)
Capital Markets	252,301		339,857		(87,556)
Total Transaction and Monitoring Fees, Net	$	332,407	$	413,339	$	(80,932)

Our Private Equity, Real Assets and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines separately earn transaction and monitoring fees from portfolio companies, and under the terms of the management agreements with certain of our investment funds, we are generally required to share all or a portion of such fees with our fund investors. In most funds, transaction and monitoring fees are credited against fund management fees up to 100% of the amount of the transaction and monitoring fees attributable to that fund, which results in a decrease of our monitoring and transaction fees. Additionally, transaction fees are generally not earned with respect to energy and real estate investments. Our Capital Markets business line earns transaction fees, which are not shared with fund investors.

The decrease in transaction and monitoring fees, net is primarily due to a lower level of transaction fees earned in our Capital Markets business line. The decrease in capital markets transaction fees was primarily due to a decrease in the number of capital markets transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 reflecting reduced levels of issuance activity across the global equity and leveraged loan markets. Overall, we completed 102 capital markets transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2023, of which 23 represented equity offerings and 79 represented debt offerings, as compared to 147 transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2022, of which 16 represented equity offerings and 131 represented debt offerings, where we earned fees in connection with underwriting, syndication and other capital markets services. While each of the capital markets transactions that we undertake in this business line is separately negotiated, our fee rates are generally higher with respect to underwriting or syndicating equity offerings than with respect to debt offerings, and the amount of fees that we earn for similar transactions generally correlates with overall transaction sizes.

Our capital markets fees are generated in connection with activity involving our private equity, real assets and credit funds as well as from third-party companies. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately 15% of our transaction fees in our Capital Markets business line were earned from unaffiliated third parties as compared to approximately 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Our transaction fees are comprised of fees earned from North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, approximately 52% of our transaction fees were generated outside of North America as compared to approximately 40% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Our Capital Markets business line is dependent on the overall capital markets environment, which is influenced by equity prices, credit spreads, and volatility. Our Capital Markets business line does not generate monitoring fees.

Total Fee Related Performance Revenues	$	50,093	$	22,050	$	28,043

Fee related performance revenues were higher for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period primarily due to (i) a higher level of performance revenues earned from FS KKR Capital Corp. compared to the prior period and (ii) performance revenues earned from KJRM in the current period.

Fee Related Compensation

The increase in fee related compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of compensation recorded in connection with the higher level of revenues included within fee related earnings.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a higher level of information technology, occupancy and other administrative costs in connection with the overall growth of the firm.

Fee Related Earnings

The increase in fee related earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a higher level of management fees from our Private Equity, Real Assets, and Credit and Liquid Strategies business lines and a higher level of fee related performance revenues, partially offset by a lower level of transaction and monitoring fees, net, and a higher level of fee related compensation and other operating expenses, as described above.

Realized carried interest in our Private Equity business line for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted primarily of (i) realized proceeds from the sale of our investments in AppLovin Corporation held by Americas Fund XII, KnowBe4, Inc. held by Global Impact Fund and Next Generation Technology Fund, and Endeavor Group Holdings, Inc. held by North America Fund XI, and (ii) performance income from our core investment vehicles. Realized carried interest in our Private Equity business line for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consisted primarily of (i) realized proceeds from the sale of our investments in Internet Brands, Inc. held by our North America Fund XI, Hensoldt AG (FRA: HAG) held by our European Fund IV and (ii) realized performance income from our core investment vehicles.

T able of Contents

Realized carried interest in our Real Assets business line for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisted primarily of realized proceeds from the sale of our investment in Telxius Telecom, S.A.U. (Infrastructure: telecommunications infrastructure sector) held by Global Infrastructure Investors II. Realized carried interest in our Real Assets business line for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consisted primarily of realized proceeds from dividends received from and sales of various investments in our real estate strategy.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no realized carried interest earned in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line. Realized carried interest in our Credit and Liquid Strategies for the six months ended June 30, 2022, consisted primarily of realized proceeds from the sale of various investments at certain alternative credit funds that are eligible to pay realized carried interest.

Incentive fees consist of performance fees earned from (i) our hedge fund partnerships, (ii) investment management agreements with KKR sponsored investment vehicles, and (iii) investment management agreements to provide KKR’s investment strategies to funds managed by a UK investment fund manager. Incentive fees in our Private Equity business line decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period as a result of incentive fees not being earned from certain levered multi-asset investment vehicles in the current period. Incentive fees in our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period primarily as a result of a lower level of performance fees earned from a UK investment fund manager. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no incentive fees earned in our Real Asset business line.

Realized Performance Income Compensation

The decrease in realized performance income compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a lower level of compensation recorded in connection with the lower level of realized performance income.

Realized Investment Income

Total Realized Investment Income	$	312,769	$	626,242	$	(313,473)

The decrease in realized investment income is primarily due to a lower level of net realized gains and a lower level of interest income and dividends, net. The amount of realized investment income depends on the transaction activity of our funds and our subsidiaries, which can vary from period to period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net realized gains were comprised primarily of the sale of our investments in AppLovin Corporation, Pembina Gas Infrastructure Inc., KnowBe4, Inc., and Flutter Entertainment PLC. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which were (i) a realized loss on our private equity investment, Envision Healthcare Corporation, (ii) realized losses on our alternative credit investments, Hilding Anders International AB and Chembulk Group, and (iii) realized losses from the sales of various revolving credit facilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net realized gains were comprised primarily of the sale of our investments in Fiserv, Inc., Internet Brands, Inc. and Hensoldt AG. Partially offsetting these realized gains were realized losses, the most significant of which were (i) realized losses on our alternative credit investment, Hilding Anders International AB, and real estate equity investment, River Plaza (real estate equity) and (ii) realized losses from the sales of various revolving credit facilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, interest income and dividends, net were comprised of (i) $158.7 million of interest income primarily from our investments in CLOs, and to a lesser extent, our credit investments and cash balances, and (ii) $46.8 million of dividend income primarily from (i) our Americas real estate credit and equity investments and (ii) dividend distributions received from our investment in Resolution Life Holdings L.P. (financial services sector), and our investment in Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, interest income and dividends, net were comprised of (i) $252.9 million of dividend income primarily from levered multi-asset investment vehicles and our private equity investments, Exact Holding B.V. and Internet Brands, Inc., and (ii) $100.8 million of interest income primarily from our investments in CLOs. See "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures."

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, total fees attributable to KKR Capstone were $43.8 million and total expenses attributable to KKR Capstone were $39.4 million. For KKR Capstone-related adjustments in reconciling asset management segment revenues to GAAP revenues see "—Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures—Reconciliations to GAAP Measures".

We currently expect to realize at least $350.0 million of realized performance income from carried interest and realized investment income in the second half of 2023 from transactions entered into prior to the date of filing this report. Some of these transactions are not complete, and are subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions, including regulatory approvals; therefore, there can be no assurance if or when such transactions will be completed. In addition, we may realize gains or losses based on transactions or other events that occur after the date of filing this report through December 31, 2023, which could impact, positively or negatively, the total amount of our realized performance income from carried interest and realized investment income. Therefore, our actual realized performance income and realized investment income for the second half of 2023 may be materially higher or lower than $350.0 million.

Realized Investment Income Compensation

The decrease in realized investment income compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a lower level of compensation recorded in connection with the lower level of realized investment income.

New Capital Raised	2,341

Distributions and Other	(3,020)
Change in Value	5,671
June 30, 2023	$	170,139

AUM of our Private Equity business line was $170.1 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $5.0 billion, compared to $165.1 billion at December 31, 2022.

The increase was primarily attributable to (i) an appreciation in investment value from Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and our core private equity strategy, and (ii) new capital raised from Ascendant Fund, private equity vehicles customized for private wealth investors, and Next Generation Technology Growth Fund III. Partially offsetting the increase was distributions to its investors primarily as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and North America Fund XI.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our traditional private equity investment portfolio increased by 7%. This was comprised of a 31% increase in share prices of various publicly held investments and a 5% increase in value of our privately held investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our growth equity investment portfolio increased 7% and our core private equity investment portfolio increased 2%.

The most significant increases in share prices of our publicly held investments were increases in AppLovin Corporation, J.B. Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals Limited, and US Foods Holding Corp. (NYSE: USFD). These increases were partially offset by decreases in share prices of other publicly held investments, the most significant of which was ZJLD Group Inc. The prices of publicly held companies may experience volatile changes following the reporting period. See "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors, such as volatility, that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

The most significant increases in the value of our privately held investments were increases in Cloudera, Inc., Kokusai Electric Corporation, and Exact Holding B.V. These increases in value on our privately held investments were partially offset by decreases in the value of certain other privately held investments, the most significant of which were GenesisCare Pty Ltd, PetVet Care Centers, LLC, and Global Medical Response, Inc. The increased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to (i) individual company performance, (ii) an increase in the value of market comparables, and (iii) with respect to Kokusai Electric Corporation, an increase in valuation related to a partial sale transaction. The decreased valuations of individual companies in our privately held investments, in the aggregate, generally related to an unfavorable business outlook. See "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors, that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuation.

AUM of our Real Assets business line was $121.6 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $3.0 billion, compared to $118.6 billion at December 31, 2022.

The increase was primarily attributable to new capital raised from Global Atlantic under our investment management agreements with Global Atlantic's insurance companies, Diversified Core Infrastructure Fund, and Asia Real Estate Partners II. Partially offsetting the increase was (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, and (ii) distributions to its investors as a result of realized proceeds, most notably from Global Infrastructure Investors III and Global Infrastructure Investors II.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the value of our infrastructure investment portfolio increased 8%, the value of our opportunistic real estate equity investment portfolio decreased by 2%, and the value of our energy investment portfolio decreased by 11%.

The most significant increases in value across our Real Assets portfolio were in Atlantic Aviation FBO Inc., ONNET Fibra Chile S.A.S. (Infrastructure: telecommunications infrastructure sector), and First Gen Corporation (Infrastructure: power and utilities sector). These increases in value were partially offset by decreases in value relating primarily to Crescent Energy Company and various assets held in our opportunistic real estate equity investment portfolio. The increased valuations of individual companies or assets in the aggregate, generally related to individual company or asset performance. The decreased valuations of individual companies or assets in the aggregate, generally related to an increase in capitalization rates and/or discount rates which impacted our real estate equity portfolio. The prices of publicly held companies may experience volatile changes following the reporting period. See "—Business Environment" for more information about the factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

Partially offsetting the increase was (i) payments to Global Atlantic policyholders, (ii) redemptions at our hedge fund partnership, Marshall Wace, and (iii) distributions and redemptions to its investors at certain leveraged credit funds.

Uncalled Commitments

Private Equity

As of June 30, 2023, our Private Equity business line had $61.2 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $65.9 billion as of December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to capital called from fund investors to make investments during the period, which was partially offset by new capital commitments from fund investors.

Real Assets

As of June 30, 2023, our Real Assets business line had $23.8 billion of remaining uncalled commitments that could be called for investments in new transactions as compared to $27.5 billion as of December 31, 2022.

Capital Invested

Private Equity

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, $6.1 billion of capital was invested by our Private Equity business line, as compared to $10.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by a $6.5 billion decrease in capital invested in our traditional private equity strategy, partially offset by a $2.8 billion increase in capital invested in our core private equity strategy. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 59% of capital deployed in private equity was in transactions in Europe, 37% was in North America, and 4% was in the Asia-Pacific region. The number of large private equity investments made in any quarterly or year-to-date period is volatile and, consequently, a significant amount of capital invested in one period or a few periods may not be indicative of a similar level of capital deployment in future periods.

Real Assets

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, $7.9 billion of capital was invested by our Real Assets business line, as compared to $17.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 45% of capital deployed in real assets was in transactions in Europe, 28% was in the Asia-Pacific region, and 27% was in North America.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, $5.4 billion of capital was invested by our Credit and Liquid Strategies business line, as compared to $12.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a lower level of capital deployed across our various private credit and direct lending strategies. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 80% of capital deployed was in transactions in North America, 15% was in Europe, and 5% was in the Asia-Pacific region.

Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results

Effective January 1 , 2023, we adopted new accounting guidance for insurance and reinsurance companies that issue long-duration contracts (“LDTI”) as of February 1, 2021, the date of the GA Acquisition, on a full retrospective basis. For a more detailed discussion of the adoption of the LDTI, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements.

The following tables set forth information regarding KKR's insurance segment operating results and certain key operating metrics as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Insurance Segment Operating Earnings	$	375,336	$	324,562	$	50,774

Insurance segment operating earnings

Insurance segment operating earnings increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to higher net investment income resulting from an increase in assets under management due to growth of the business and higher average yields. The increase was offset in part by (i) higher net cost of insurance, primarily due to the growth in both the individual market and institutional market channels and higher funding cost on new business and (ii) a corresponding increase in general and administrative expenses.

Net investment income

Net investment income increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) increased average assets under management due to growth in assets in the institutional market channel as a result of new reinsurance transactions and individual market channel sales from new business growth, (ii) increases in portfolio yields due to higher market interest rates on floating rate investments, and (iii) rotation into higher yielding assets. Offsetting these increases to net investment income was a decrease in variable investment income, primarily due to a decrease in net realized gains from the sale of investments not related to asset/liability matching strategies.

T able of Contents

Net cost of insurance

Net cost of insurance increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) growth in reserves in the institutional market as a result of new reinsurance transactions and in the individual market as a result of new business volumes, and (ii) higher funding costs on new business originated.

General, administrative and other expenses

General and administrative expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to (i) an increase in interest expense on floating rate debt (i.e., Global Atlantic's revolving facility and fixed-to-floating swaps on its fixed rate debt) due to higher market rates and higher total debt notional outstanding and (ii) increased employee compensation and benefits-related expenses.

Net Income attributable to non-controlling interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 in proportion to the increase in insurance segment operating earnings for the comparable period. Net income attributable to non-controlling interests represents the proportionate interest in the insurance segment operating earnings attributable to other co-investors in Global Atlantic.

Analysis of Non-GAAP Performance Measures

The following is a discussion of our Non-GAAP performance measures for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

After-tax Distributable Earnings	$	1,371,880	$	1,825,253	$	(453,373)

Distributable Operating Earnings

The decrease in distributable operating earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is primarily due to a lower level of asset management segment operating earnings partially offset by a higher level of insurance segment operating earnings. For a discussion of the asset management and insurance segment operating earnings, see "—Analysis of Asset Management Segment Operating Results" and "—Analysis of Insurance Segment Operating Results."

After-tax Distributable Earnings

The decrease in after-tax distributable earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a lower level of distributable operating earnings and an increase in interest expense partially offset by a decrease in income taxes on operating earnings.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period is due primarily to debt issuances by KKR's financing subsidiaries.

Income Taxes on Operating Earnings

The decrease in income taxes on operating earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior period was primarily due to a lower level of asset management segment operating earnings.

T able of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation included in income taxes on operating earnings was $24.2 million and $27.7 million, respectively. The inclusion of the tax benefit from equity-based compensation in After-tax Distributable Earnings had the effect of increasing this measure by 2% both for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Book value increased 3% from December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) the net appreciation in the value of our investment portfolio, (ii) an increase in net unrealized carried interest, most notably from Americas Fund XII, Asian Fund III, and Global Infrastructure Investors III, and (iii) the positive impact of our after-tax distributable earnings recognized in the period. Partially offsetting these increases were the payment of dividends and repurchases of our common stock during the period. The value of our asset management segment investments increased 3% in the period.

Global Atlantic's Investment Portfolio

As of June 30, 2023, 96% and 87% of Global Atlantic's available-for-sale ("AFS") fixed maturity securities were considered investment grade under ratings from the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC and NRSROs, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, 95% and 85% of Global Atlantic's AFS fixed maturity securities were considered investment grade under ratings from NAIC and NRSROs, respectively. Securities where a rating by an NRSRO was not available are considered investment grade if they have an NAIC designation of “1” or “2.” The three largest asset categories in Global Atlantic's AFS fixed-maturity security portfolio as of June 30, 2023 were Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities, comprising 30%, 6% and 5% of Global Atlantic's investment portfolio, respectively. Within these categories, 94%, 97% and 95% of Global Atlantic's Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities, respectively, were investment grade according to NAIC ratings and 94%, 54% and 54% of its Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities, respectively, were investment grade according to NRSRO ratings as of June 30, 2023. The three largest asset categories in Global Atlantic's AFS fixed-maturity security portfolio as of December 31, 2022 were Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities, comprising 29%, 5% and 5% of Global Atlantic's investment portfolio, respectively. Within these categories, 94%, 95% and 95% of Global Atlantic's Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities,

respectively, were investment grade according to NAIC ratings and 94%, 45% and 53% of its Corporate, RMBS and CMBS securities, respectively, were investment grade according to NRSRO ratings as of December 31, 2022. NRSRO and NAIC ratings have different methodologies. Global Atlantic believes the NAIC ratings methodology, which considers the likelihood of recovery of amortized cost as opposed to the recovery of all contractual payments including the principal at par, as the more appropriate way to view the ratings quality of its AFS fixed maturity portfolio since a large portion of its holdings were purchased at a significant discount to par value. The portion of Global Atlantic's investment portfolio consisting of floating rate assets was 30% and 29% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Within the funds withheld receivable at interest portfolio, 97% of the fixed maturity securities were investment grade by NAIC designation as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Trading fixed maturity securities back funds withheld payable at interest where the investment performance is ceded to reinsurers under the terms of the respective reinsurance agreements.

Credit quality of AFS fixed maturity securities

The Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC evaluates the AFS fixed maturity security investments of insurers for regulatory reporting and capital assessment purposes and assigns securities to one of six credit quality categories called “NAIC designations.” Using an internally developed rating is permitted by the NAIC if no rating is available. These designations are generally similar to the credit quality designations of NRSROs for marketable fixed maturity securities, except for certain structured securities as described below. NAIC designations of “1,” highest quality, and “2,” high quality, include fixed maturity securities generally considered investment grade by NRSROs. NAIC designations “3” through “6” include fixed maturity securities generally considered below investment grade by NRSROs.

Consistent with the NAIC Process and Procedures Manual, an NRSRO rating was assigned based on the following criteria: (i) the equivalent S&P rating where the security is rated by one NRSRO; (ii) the equivalent S&P rating of the lowest NRSRO when the security is rated by two NRSROs; and (iii) the equivalent S&P rating of the second lowest NRSRO if the security is rated by three or more NRSROs. If the lowest two NRSROs’ ratings are equal, then such rating will be the assigned rating. NRSROs’ ratings available for the periods presented were S&P, Fitch, Moody’s, DBRS, Inc. and Kroll Bond Rating Agency, Inc. If no rating is available from a rating agency, then an internally developed rating is used.

Substantially all of the AFS fixed maturity securities portfolio, 96% and 95% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively was invested in investment grade assets with a NAIC rating of 1 or 2.

The portion of the AFS fixed maturity securities portfolio that was considered below investment grade by NAIC designation was 4% and 5% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Pursuant to Global Atlantic's investment guidelines, Global Atlantic actively monitors the percentage of its portfolio that is held in investments rated NAIC 3 or lower and must obtain an additional approval from Global Atlantic's management investment committee before making a significant investment in an asset rated NAIC 3 or lower.

Corporate fixed maturity securities

Global Atlantic maintains a diversified portfolio of corporate fixed maturity securities across industries and issuers. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 59% of the AFS fixed maturity securities portfolio was invested in corporate fixed maturity securities. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately, 5% of the portfolio is denominated in foreign currency.

As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 94% of the total fair value of corporate fixed maturity securities is rated NAIC investment grade and 94% is rated NRSROs investment grade, respectively.

Residential mortgage-backed securities

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 11% and 10% of the AFS fixed maturity securities portfolio was invested in RMBS, respectively. RMBS are securities constructed from pools of residential mortgages and backed by payments from those pools. Excluding limitations on access to lending and other extraordinary economic conditions, Global Atlantic would expect prepayments of principal on the underlying loans to accelerate with decreases in market interest rates and diminish with increases in market interest rates.

T able of Contents

The NAIC designations for RMBS, including prime, sub-prime, alt-A, and adjustable rate mortgages with variable payment options ("Option ARM"), are based upon a comparison of the bond’s amortized cost to the NAIC’s loss expectation for each security. Accordingly, an investment in the same security at a lower cost may result in a higher quality NAIC designation in recognition of the lower likelihood the investment would result in a realized loss. Prime residential mortgage lending includes loans to the most creditworthy borrowers with high quality credit profiles. Alt-A is a classification of mortgage loans where the risk profile of the borrower is between prime and sub-prime. Sub-prime mortgage lending is the origination of residential mortgage loans to borrowers with weak credit profiles.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 93% and 90%, respectively, of RMBS securities that are below investment grade as rated by the NRSRO, carry an NAIC 1 ("highest quality") designation.

As of June 30, 2023, Alt-A, Option ARM, Re-Performing and Sub-prime represent 43%, 24%, 10% and 12% of the total RMBS portfolio ($7.4 billion), respectively. As of December 31, 2022, Alt-A, Option ARM, Re-Performing and Sub-prime represent 31%, 28%, 14% and 12% of the total RMBS portfolio ($6.4 billion), respectively.

Unrealized gains and losses for AFS fixed maturity securities

Global Atlantic's investments in AFS fixed maturity securities are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income as unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes and offsets. Unrealized gains and losses can be created by changes in interest rates or by changes in credit spreads.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Global Atlantic had gross unrealized losses on below investment grade AFS fixed maturity securities of $772.0 million and $917.6 million based on NRSRO rating and $212.0 million and $224.9 million based on NAIC ratings, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, unrealized losses were not recognized in net income on these debt securities since Global Atlantic neither intends to sell the securities nor does it believe that it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost or amortized cost basis.

Credit quality of mortgage and other loan receivables

Mortgage and other loan receivables consist of commercial and residential mortgage loans, consumer loans and other loan receivables. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 28% of Global Atlantic's total investments consisted of mortgage and other loan receivables.

Global Atlantic invests in U.S. mortgage loans, comprised of first lien and mezzanine commercial mortgage loans and first lien residential mortgage loans. For Global Atlantic’s commercial mortgage loan portfolio, the most prevalent property type is multi-family residential buildings, which represents over half of the portfolio as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Office and retail properties represent approximately 26% and 28% of the portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Global Atlantic's commercial mortgage loans are assigned NAIC designations, with designations “CM1” and “CM2” considered to be investment grade. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 91% and 88% of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio were rated investment grade based on NAIC designation, respectively. The payment status of over 99% of the commercial mortgage loan portfolio is current as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The loan-to-value ratio is expressed as a percentage of the current amount of the loan relative to the value of the underlying collateral. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately 86% and 84%, respectively, of the commercial mortgage loans have a loan-to-value ratio of 70% or less and for both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 3% have loan-to-value ratio over 90%.

Changing economic conditions and updated assumptions affect Global Atlantic’s assessment of the collectability of commercial mortgage loans. Changing vacancies and rents are incorporated into the analysis that Global Atlantic performs to measure the allowance for credit losses. In addition, Global Atlantic continuously monitors its commercial mortgage loan portfolio to identify risk. Areas of emphasis are properties that have exposure to specific geographic events or have deteriorating credit.

As of June 30, 2023, the payment status of 96% of the residential mortgage loan portfolio is current, and approximately $204.8 million is 90 days or more past due (representing 2% of the total residential mortgage portfolio). As of December 31, 2022, the payment status of 96% of the residential mortgage loan portfolio was current and approximately $192.3 million were 90 days or more past due (representing 2% of the total residential mortgage portfolio).

T able of Contents

The weighted average loan-to-value ratio for residential mortgage loans was 63% and 64% as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Global Atlantic's residential mortgage loan portfolio primarily includes mortgage loans backed by single family rental properties, prime loans and re-performing loans that were purchased at a discount after they were modified and returned to performing status. Global Atlantic has also extended financing to counterparties in the form of repurchase agreements secured by mortgage loans, including performing and non-performing mortgage loans.

Global Atlantic’s consumer loan portfolio is primarily comprised of home improvement loans, residential solar loans, student loans and auto loans. As of June 30, 2023, 97% of the consumer loan portfolio is in current status and approximately $37.6 million is 90 days or more past due (representing 1% of the total consumer loan portfolio).

Liquidity

We manage our liquidity and capital requirements by (a) focusing on our cash flows before the consolidation of our funds and CFEs and the effect of changes in short term assets and liabilities, which we anticipate will be settled for cash within one year, and (b) seeking to maintain access to sufficient liquidity through various sources. The overall liquidity framework and cash management approach of our insurance business are also based on seeking to build an investment portfolio that is cash flow matched, providing cash inflows from insurance assets that meet our insurance companies' expected cash outflows to pay their liabilities. Our primary cash flow activities typically involve: (i) generating cash flow from operations; (ii) generating income from investment activities, by investing in investments that generate yield (namely interest and dividends), as well as through the sale of investments and other assets; (iii) funding capital commitments that we have made to, and advancing capital to, our funds and CLOs; (iv) developing and funding new investment strategies, investment products, and other growth initiatives, including acquisitions of other investments, assets, and businesses; (v) underwriting and funding capital commitments in our capital markets business; (vi) distributing cash flow to our stockholders and holders of our preferred stock; and (vii) paying borrowings, interest payments, and repayments under credit agreements, our senior and subordinated notes, and other borrowing arrangements. See "—Liquidity—Liquidity Needs—Dividends."

See "—Business Environment" for more information on factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

T able of Contents

Sources of Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity consist of amounts received from: (i) our operating activities, including the fees earned from our funds, portfolio companies, and capital markets transactions; (ii) realizations on carried interest from our investment funds; (iii) interest and dividends from investments that generate yield, including our investments in CLOs; (iv) in our insurance business, cash inflows in respect of new premiums, policyholder deposits, reinsurance transactions and funding agreements, including through memberships in FHLBs; (v) realizations on and sales of investments and other assets, including the transfers of investments or other assets for fund formations (including CLOs and other investment vehicles); and (vi) borrowings, including advances under our revolving credit facilities, debt offerings, repurchase agreements, and other borrowing arrangements. In addition, we may generate cash proceeds from issuances of our or our subsidiaries' equity securities.

Many of our investment funds like our private equity and real assets funds provide for carried interest. With respect to our carry-paying investment funds, carried interest is eligible to be distributed to the general partner of the fund only after all of the following are met: (i) a realization event has occurred (e.g., sale of a portfolio company, dividend, etc.); (ii) the vehicle has achieved positive overall investment returns since its inception, in excess of performance hurdles where applicable, and is accruing carried interest; and (iii) with respect to investments with a fair value below cost, cost has been returned to fund investors in an amount sufficient to reduce remaining cost to the investments' fair value. Even after all of the preceding conditions are met, the general partner of the fund may, in its sole discretion, decide to defer the distribution of carried interest to it to a later date. In addition, these funds generally include what is called a “clawback” provision, which provides that the general partner must return any carried interest that is paid in excess of what the general partner is entitled to receive at the end of the term of the fund, as discussed further below.

As of June 30, 2023, certain of our investment funds had met the first and second criteria, as described above, but did not meet the third criteria. In these cases, carried interest accrues on the consolidated statement of operations, but will not be distributed in cash to us as the general partner of an investment fund upon a realization event. For a fund that has a fair value above cost, overall, and is otherwise accruing carried interest, but has one or more investments where fair value is below cost, the shortfall between cost and fair value for such investments is referred to as a "netting hole." When netting holes are present, realized gains on individual investments that would otherwise allow the general partner to receive carried interest distributions are instead used to return invested capital to our funds' limited partners in an amount equal to the netting hole. Once netting holes have been filled with either (a) return of capital equal to the netting hole for those investments where fair value is below cost or (b) increases in the fair value of those investments where fair value is below cost, then realized carried interest will be distributed to the general partner upon a realization event. A fund that is in a position to pay cash carry refers to a fund for which carried interest is expected to be paid to the general partner upon the next material realization event, which includes funds with no netting holes as well as funds with a netting hole that is sufficiently small in size such that the next material realization event would be expected to result in the payment of carried interest. Strategic investor partnerships with fund investors may require netting across the various funds in which they invest, which may reduce the carried interest we otherwise would have earned if such fund investors were to have invested in our funds without the existence of the strategic investor partnership.

As of June 30, 2023, netting holes in excess of $50 million only existed at European Fund V and Health Care Growth Fund in the amounts of $131 million and $71 million, respectively. In accordance with the criteria set forth above, other funds currently have and may in the future develop netting holes, and netting holes for those and other funds may otherwise increase or decrease in the future. There are also investment funds that are not accruing carried interest and do not have a netting hole although they may be in a clawback position. If the investment fund has distributed carried interest, but subsequently does not have sufficient value to provide for the distribution of carried interest at the end of the life of the investment fund, the general partner is typically required to return previously distributed carried interest to the fund investors. Although our current and former employees who received distributions of carried interest subject to clawback are required to return them to KKR, it is KKR’s obligation to return carried interest subject to clawback to the fund investors. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $525 million of carried interest was subject to this clawback obligation, assuming that all applicable carry-paying funds and their alternative investment vehicles were liquidated at their June 30, 2023 fair values. As of June 30, 2023, Asian Fund II is the only investment fund with a clawback obligation in excess of $50 million. See Note 25 "Commitments and Contingencies—Contingent Repayment Guarantees" in our financial statements included elsewhere in this report for further information. See also the negative amounts included in the Carried Interest column in the table included in this Item 2 in “Asset Management—Private Equity” for further information on clawback obligations.

We have access to funding under various credit facilities, other borrowing arrangements and other sources of liquidity that we have entered into with major financial institutions or which we receive from the capital markets.

Liquidity Needs

We expect that our (including Global Atlantic's) primary liquidity needs will consist of cash required to meet various obligations, including, without limitation, to:

continue to support and grow our Asset Management business lines, including seeding new investment strategies, supporting capital commitments made by our vehicles to existing and future funds, co-investments and any net capital requirements of our capital markets companies and otherwise supporting the investment vehicles that we sponsor;
continue to support and grow our insurance business;
grow and expand our businesses generally, including by acquiring or launching new, complementary or adjacent businesses;
warehouse investments in portfolio companies or other investments for the benefit of one or more of our funds, accounts or CLOs or other investment vehicles pending the contribution of committed capital by the fund investors in such vehicles, and advancing capital to them for operational or other needs;
service debt obligations including the payment of obligations at maturity, on interest payment dates or upon redemption, as well as any contingent liabilities, including from litigation, that may give rise to future cash payments, including funding requirements to levered investment vehicles or structured transactions;
fund cash operating expenses and contingencies, including for litigation matters and guarantees;
pay corporate income taxes and other taxes;
pay policyholders and amounts in our insurance business related to investment, reinvestment, reinsurance or funding agreement activity;
pay amounts that may become due under our tax receivable agreement;
pay cash dividends in accordance with our dividend policy for our common stock or the terms of our preferred stock, if any;
underwrite commitments, advance loan proceeds and fund syndication commitments within our capital markets business;
post or return collateral in respect of derivative contracts;
acquire other assets for our Principal Activities business line, including other businesses, investments and assets, some of which may be required to satisfy regulatory requirements for our capital markets business or risk retention requirements for CLOs (to the extent they may apply);
address capital needs of regulated subsidiaries as well as non-regulated subsidiaries; and
repurchase shares of our common stock or retire equity awards pursuant to the share repurchase program or repurchase or redeem other securities issued by us.

For a discussion of KKR's share repurchase program, see Note 23 "Equity" in our financial statements.

Capital Commitments

The agreements governing our active investment funds generally require the general partners of the funds to make minimum capital commitments to such funds, which generally range from 2% to 8% of a fund's total capital commitments at final closing, but may be greater for certain funds (i) where we are pursuing newer strategies, (ii) where third party investor demand is limited, and (iii) where a larger commitment is consistent with the asset allocation strategy for our Principal Activities business line, including core investments and exposure to the Asia-Pacific region.

Other Capital Commitments

In addition to the uncalled commitments to our investment funds as shown above, KKR has entered into contractual capital commitments primarily with respect to underwriting transactions, debt financing, revolving credit facilities, and equity syndications in our Capital Markets business line. As of June 30, 2023, these capital commitments amounted to $0.6 billion.

Whether these amounts are actually funded, in whole or in part, depends on the contractual terms of such capital commitments, including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions to closing or funding. Our capital markets business has arrangements with third parties, which reduce our risk under certain circumstances when underwriting certain debt transactions, and thus our unfunded capital commitments as of June 30, 2023 have been reduced to reflect the amount to be funded by such third parties. In the case of purchases of investments or assets in our Principal Activities business line, the amount to be funded includes amounts that are intended to be syndicated to third parties, and the actual amounts to be funded may be less. For more information about our Capital Markets business line's risks, see "Risks Related to Our Business—Our capital markets activities expose us to material risks" in our Annual Report.

T able of Contents

From time to time, we fund various underwriting, syndication and fronting commitments in our capital markets business in connection with the arranging or underwriting of loans, securities or other financial instruments, for which we may draw all or substantially all of our availability for borrowings under our available credit facilities. We generally expect these borrowings by our Capital Markets business line to be repaid promptly as these commitments are syndicated to third parties or otherwise fulfilled or terminated, although we may in some instances elect to retain a portion of the commitments for our own investment. For more information about our Capital Markets business line's risks, see "Risks Related to Our Business—Our capital markets activities expose us to material risks" in this report.

Tax Receivable Agreement

On May 30, 2022, KKR terminated the tax receivable agreement with KKR Holdings other than with respect to exchanges of KKR Holdings Units completed prior to such date. As of June 30, 2023, an undiscounted payable of $404.6 million has been recorded in due to affiliates in the financial statements representing management's best estimate of the amounts currently expected to be owed for certain exchanges of KKR Holdings Units that took place prior to the termination of the tax receivable agreement. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $76.7 million of cumulative cash payments have been made under the tax receivable agreement since inception.

Dividends and Stock Repurchases

A dividend of $0.165 per share of our common stock has been declared and will be paid on August 31, 2023 to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on August 17, 2023.

On September 15, 2023, each outstanding share of the Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert into a number of shares of our common stock based on the conversion rate set forth in the Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock prospectus supplement. In addition, a dividend of $0.75 per share of Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock has been declared and set aside for payment on September 15, 2023 to holders of record of Series C Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock as of the close of business on September 1, 2023.

When KKR & Co. Inc. receives distributions from KKR Group Partnership, holders of exchangeable securities receive their pro rata share of such distributions from KKR Group Partnership.

The declaration and payment of dividends to our common stockholders will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors, and our dividend policy may be changed at any time. We announced on February 7, 2023 that our current dividend policy will be to pay dividends to holders of our common stock in an annual aggregate amount of $0.66 per share (or a quarterly dividend of $0.165 per share) beginning with the dividend that was announced with the results for the first quarter of 2023.The declaration of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including KKR’s future financial performance and other considerations that the Board of Directors deems relevant, and compliance with the terms of KKR & Co. Inc.'s certificate of incorporation and applicable law. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, any dividends we pay (including dividends on our preferred stock) generally will be treated as qualified dividend income for U.S. individual stockholders to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that future dividends will be made as intended or at all or that any particular dividend policy for our common stock will be maintained. Furthermore, the declaration and payment of distributions by KKR Group Partnership and our other subsidiaries may also be subject to legal, contractual and regulatory restrictions, including restrictions contained in our debt agreements and the terms of the preferred units of KKR Group Partnership.

Since 2015, KKR has repurchased, or retired equity awards representing, a total of 91.7 million shares of common stock for $2.5 billion, which equates to an average price of $27.23 per share.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we (including Global Atlantic) and our consolidated funds and CFEs enter into contractual arrangements that may require future cash payments. Contractual arrangements include (1) commitments to fund the purchase of investments or other assets (including obligations to fund capital commitments as the general partner of our investment funds) or to fund collateral for derivative transactions or otherwise, (2) obligations arising under our senior notes, subordinated notes, and other indebtedness, (3) commitments by our capital markets business to underwrite transactions or to lend capital, (4) obligations arising under insurance policies written, (5) other contractual obligations, including servicing agreements with third-party administrators for insurance policy administration, and (6) commitments to fund the business, operations or investments of our subsidiaries. In addition, we may incur contingent liabilities for claims that may be made against us in the future. For more information about these contingent liabilities, please see Note 25 "Commitments and Contingencies" in our financial statements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of fees, capital allocation-based income (loss), expenses, investment income, and income taxes. Our management bases these estimates and judgments on available information, historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these estimates, judgments and assumptions are often subjective and may be impacted negatively based on changing circumstances or changes in our analyses. If actual amounts are ultimately different from those estimated, judged or assumed, revisions are included in the financial statements in the period in which the actual amounts become known. We believe our critical accounting policies could potentially produce materially different results if we were to change underlying estimates, judgments or assumptions.

For a further discussion about our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report.

Basis of Accounting

We consolidate the financial results of KKR Group Partnership and its consolidated entities, which include the accounts of our investment advisers, broker-dealers, Global Atlantic’s insurance companies, the general partners of certain unconsolidated investment funds, general partners of consolidated investment funds and their respective consolidated investment funds and certain other entities including CFEs.

When an entity is consolidated, we reflect the accounts of the consolidated entity, including its assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, investment income, cash flows and other amounts, on a gross basis. While the consolidation of an investment fund or entity does not have an effect on the amounts of Net Income Attributable to KKR or KKR's stockholders' equity that KKR reports, the consolidation does significantly impact the financial statement presentation under GAAP. This is due to the fact that the accounts of the consolidated entities are reflected on a gross basis while the allocable share of those amounts that are attributable to third parties are reflected as single line items. The single line items in which the accounts attributable to third parties are recorded are presented as noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of financial condition and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests on the consolidated statements of operations.

T able of Contents

The presentation in the financial statements reflect the significant industry diversification of KKR by its acquisition of Global Atlantic. Global Atlantic operates an insurance business, and KKR operates an asset management business, each of which possess distinct characteristics. As a result, KKR developed a two-tiered presentation approach for the financial statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis. KKR believes that these separate presentations provide a more informative view of the consolidated financial position and results of operations than traditional aggregated presentations. KKR believes that reporting Global Atlantic’s insurance operations separately is appropriate given, among other factors, the relative significance of Global Atlantic’s policy liabilities, which are not obligations of KKR (other than the insurance companies that issued them). If a traditional aggregated presentation were to be used, KKR would expect to eliminate or combine several identical or similar captions, which would condense the presentations but would reduce transparency. KKR also believes that using a traditional aggregated presentation would result in no new line items compared to the two-tier presentation included in the financial statements in this report.

Consolidation

KKR consolidates all entities that it controls either through a majority voting interest or as the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIEs”). The following discussion is intended to provide supplemental information about how the application of consolidation principles impact our financial results, and management’s process for implementing those principles including areas of significant judgment. For a detailed description of our accounting policy on consolidation, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report.

As part of its consolidation procedures, KKR evaluates: (1) whether it holds a variable interest in an entity, (2) whether the entity is a VIE, and (3) whether the KKR’s involvement would make it the primary beneficiary. The determination that KKR holds a controlling financial interest in an investment vehicle significantly changes the presentation of our consolidated financial statements.

The assessment of whether we consolidate an investment vehicle we manage requires the application of significant judgment. These judgments are applied both at the time we become involved with an investment vehicle and on an ongoing basis and include, but are not limited to:

Determining whether our management fees, carried interests or incentive fees represent variable interests - We make judgments as to whether the fees we earn are commensurate with the level of effort required for those fees and at market rates. In making this judgment, we consider, among other things, the extent of third party investment in the entity and the terms of any other interests we hold in the VIE.
Determining whether a legal entity qualifies as a VIE - For those entities where KKR holds a variable interest, management determines whether each of these entities qualifies as a VIE and, if so, whether or not KKR is the primary beneficiary. The assessment of whether the entity is a VIE is generally performed qualitatively, which requires judgment. These judgments include: (a) determining whether the equity investment at risk is sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) evaluating whether the equity holders, as a group, can make decisions that have a significant effect on the economic performance of the entity, (c) determining whether two or more parties’ equity interests should be aggregated, and (d) determining whether the equity investors have proportionate voting rights to their obligations to absorb losses or rights to receive returns from an entity. Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are generally assessed for consolidation as voting interest entities. Under the voting interest entity model, KKR consolidates those entities it controls through a majority voting interest.
Concluding whether KKR has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE - As there is no explicit threshold in GAAP to define “potentially significant,” we must apply judgment and evaluate both quantitative and qualitative factors to conclude whether this threshold is met.

Changes to these judgments could result in a change in the consolidation conclusion for a legal entity.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions.

GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. Investments and other financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in the determination of fair values, as follows:

T able of Contents

Level I

Pricing inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date.

Level II

Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level III

Pricing inputs are unobservable for the financial instruments and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The valuation of our Level III investments at June 30, 2023 represents management's best estimate of the amounts that we would anticipate realizing on the sale of these investments in an orderly transaction at such date.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Level III Valuation Methodologies

Our investments and financial instruments are impacted by various economic conditions and events outside of our control that are difficult to quantify or predict, which may have a significant impact on the valuation of our investments and, therefore, on the carried interest and investment income we realize. Additionally, a change in interest rates could have a significant impact on valuations.

Across the total Level III private equity investment portfolio (including core private equity investments), and including investments in both consolidated and unconsolidated investment funds, approximately 55% of the fair value is derived from investments that are valued based exactly 50% on market comparables and 50% on a discounted cash flow analysis. Less than 1% of the fair value of this Level III private equity investment portfolio is derived from investments that are valued either based 100% on market comparables or 100% on a discounted cash flow analysis. As of June 30, 2023, the overall weights ascribed to the market comparables methodology, the discounted cash flow methodology, and a methodology based on pending sales for this portfolio of Level III private equity investments were 38%, 54%, and 8%, respectively.

There is inherent uncertainty involved in the valuation of Level III investments, and there is no assurance that, upon liquidation, KKR will realize the values reflected in our valuations. Our valuations may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. See "—Business Environment" for more information on factors that may impact our business, financial performance, operating results and valuations.

Key unobservable inputs that have a significant impact on our Level III valuations as described above are included in Note 10 "Fair Value Measurements" in our financial statements.

Level III Valuation Process

The valuation process involved for Level III measurements is completed on a quarterly basis and is designed to subject the valuation of Level III investments to an appropriate level of consistency, oversight, and review.

For private equity and real asset investments classified as Level III, investment professionals prepare preliminary valuations based on their evaluation of financial and operating data, company specific developments, market valuations of comparable companies and other factors. KKR begins its procedures to determine the fair values of its Level III assets approximately one month prior to the end of a reporting period, and KKR follows additional procedures to ensure that its determinations of fair value for its Level III assets are appropriate as of the relevant reporting date. These preliminary valuations are reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by KKR to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of KKR's valuations annually for all Level III private equity and real asset investments and quarterly for investments other than certain investments, which have values less than preset value thresholds and which in the aggregate comprise less than 1% of the total value of KKR's Level III private equity and real asset investments. The valuations of certain real asset investments are determined solely by independent valuation firms without the preparation of preliminary valuations by our investment professionals, and instead such independent valuation firms rely on valuation information available to it as a

broker or valuation firm. For credit investments, an independent valuation firm is generally engaged by KKR to assist with the valuations of most investments classified as Level III. The valuation firm either provides a value, provides a valuation range from which KKR's investment professionals select a point in the range to determine the valuation, or performs certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of KKR's valuations. After reflecting any input from the independent valuation firm, the valuation proposals are submitted for review and approval by KKR's valuation committees. As of June 30, 2023, less than 2% of the total value of our Level III credit investments were not valued with the engagement of an independent valuation firm.

For Level III investments in Asset Management, KKR has a global valuation committee that is responsible for coordinating and implementing the firm's valuation process to ensure consistency in the application of valuation principles across portfolio investments and between periods. The global valuation committee is assisted by the asset class-specific valuation committees that exist for private equity (including core equity investments and certain impact investments), growth equity (including certain impact investments), real estate, energy, infrastructure and credit. The asset class-specific valuation committees are responsible for the review and approval of all preliminary Level III valuations in their respective asset classes on a quarterly basis. The members of these valuation committees are comprised of investment professionals, including the heads of each respective strategy, and professionals from business operations functions such as legal, compliance and finance, who are not primarily responsible for the management of the investments. All Level III valuations for investments in Asset Management are also subject to approval by the global valuation committee, which is comprised of senior employees including investment professionals and professionals from business operations functions, and includes KKR's Co-Chief Executive Officers and its Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel, and Chief Compliance Officer. When valuations are approved by the global valuation committee after reflecting any input from it, the valuations of Level III investments, as well as the valuations of Level I and Level II investments, are presented to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of KKR & Co. Inc. and are then reported to the Board of Directors.

Level III investments held by Global Atlantic are valued on the basis of pricing services, broker-dealers or internal models. Global Atlantic performs a quantitative and qualitative analysis and review of the information and prices received from independent pricing services as well as broker-dealers to verify that it represents a reasonable estimate of fair value. As of June 30, 2023, approximately 89% of these investments were priced via external sources, while approximately 11% were valued on the basis of internal models. For all the internally developed models, Global Atlantic seeks to verify the reasonableness of fair values by analyzing the inputs and other assumptions used. These preliminary valuations are reviewed, based on certain thresholds, by an independent valuation firm engaged by Global Atlantic to perform certain procedures in order to assess the reasonableness of Global Atlantic's valuations. When valuations are approved by Global Atlantic's management, the valuations of its Level III investments, as well as the valuations of Level I and Level II investments, are presented to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of KKR & Co. Inc. and are then reported to the Board of Directors.

As of June 30, 2023, upon completion by, where applicable, independent valuation firms of certain limited procedures requested to be performed by them on certain Level III investments, the independent valuation firms concluded that the fair values, as determined by KKR (including Global Atlantic), of those investments reviewed by them were reasonable. The limited procedures did not involve an audit, review, compilation or any other form of examination or attestation under generally accepted auditing standards and were not conducted on all Level III investments. We are responsible for determining the fair value of investments in good faith, and the limited procedures performed by an independent valuation firm are supplementary to the inquiries and procedures that we are required to undertake to determine the fair value of the commensurate investments.

As described above, Level II and Level III investments were valued using internal models with significant unobservable inputs, and our determinations of the fair values of these investments may differ materially from the values that would have resulted if readily observable inputs had existed. Additional external factors may cause those values, and the values of investments for which readily observable inputs exist, to increase or decrease over time, which may create volatility in our earnings and the amounts of assets and stockholders' equity that we report from time to time.

Changes in the fair value of investments impacts the amount of carried interest that is recognized as well as the amount of investment income that is recognized for investments held directly in Asset Management and through our consolidated funds as described below. We estimate that an immediate 10% decrease in the fair value of investments held directly and through consolidated investment funds generally would result in a commensurate change in the amount of net gains (losses) from investment activities for investments held directly and through investment funds and a more significant impact to the amount of carried interest recognized, regardless of whether the investment was valued using observable market prices or management estimates with significant unobservable pricing inputs. With respect to consolidated investment funds, the impact that the consequential decrease in investment income would have on net income attributable to KKR would generally be significantly less than the amount described above, given that a majority of the change in fair value of our consolidated funds would be attributable to noncontrolling interests and therefore we are only impacted to the extent of our carried interest and our balance

sheet investments. With respect to Insurance, a decrease in investment income for certain assets where investment gains and losses are recognized through the statement of operations would impact KKR only to the extent of our economic ownership interest in Global Atlantic.

As of June 30, 2023, there were no investments which represented greater than 5% of total investments on a GAAP basis. On a segment basis, as of June 30, 2023, investments which represented greater than 5% of total Asset Management segment investments consisted of USI, Inc. and PetVet Care Centers, LLC and valued at $1,403 million and $1,070 million, respectively. Our investment income on a GAAP basis and our book value can be impacted by volatility in the public markets related to our holdings of publicly traded securities, including our sizable holdings of Crescent Energy Company and BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. See "—Business Environment" for a discussion of factors that may impact the valuations of our investments, financial results, operating results and valuations, and "—Non-GAAP Balance Sheet Measures" for additional information regarding our largest holdings on a segment basis.

Business Combinations

KKR accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, under which the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the fair values determined by management as of the acquisition date.

Management’s determination of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date is based on the best information available in the circumstances and may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involve a significant degree of judgment. We use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as the useful lives of those acquired intangible assets. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired include, but are not limited to, future expected cash inflows and outflows, future fundraising assumptions, expected useful life, discount rates and income tax rates. Our estimates for future cash flows are based on historical data, various internal estimates and certain external sources, and are based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying assets acquired. We estimate the useful lives of the intangible assets based on the expected period over which we anticipate generating economic benefit from the asset. We base our estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that could affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual result.

Income Taxes

Significant judgment is required in estimating the provision for (benefit from) income taxes, current and deferred tax balances (including valuation allowance), accrued interest or penalties and uncertain tax positions. In evaluating these judgments, we consider, among other items, projections of taxable income (including the character of such income), beginning with historic results and incorporating assumptions of the amount of future pretax operating income. These assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates that KKR uses to manage its business. A portion of the deferred tax assets are not considered to be more likely than not to be realized. For that portion of the deferred tax assets for Global Atlantic, a valuation allowance has been recorded. Revisions in estimates and/or actual costs of a tax assessment may ultimately be materially different from the recorded accruals and unrecognized tax benefits, if any. Please see Note 19 "Income Taxes" in our financial statements in this report for further details.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - Asset Management

Revenues

Fees and Other

Fees and other consist primarily of (i) management and incentive fees from providing investment management services to unconsolidated funds, CLOs, other vehicles, and separately managed accounts; (ii) transaction fees earned in connection with successful investment transactions and from capital markets activities; (iii) monitoring fees from providing services to portfolio companies; (iv) expense reimbursements from certain investment funds and portfolio companies; and (v) consulting fees. These fees are based on the contractual terms of the governing agreements and are recognized when earned, which coincides with the period during which the related services are performed and in the case of transaction fees, upon closing of the transaction. Monitoring fees may provide for a termination payment following an initial public offering or change of control. These termination payments are recognized in the period when the related transaction closes.

T able of Contents

Transaction fee calculations and management fee calculations based on committed capital or invested capital typically do not require discretion and therefore do not require the use of significant estimates or judgments. Management fee calculations based on net asset value depend on the fair value of the underlying investments within the investment vehicles. Estimates and assumptions are made when determining the fair value of the underlying investments within the funds and could vary depending on the valuation methodology that is used as well as economic conditions.

Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)

Capital allocation-based income (loss) is earned from those arrangements whereby KKR serves as general partner and includes income or loss from KKR's capital interest as well as "carried interest" which entitles KKR to a disproportionate allocation of investment income or loss from an investment fund's limited partners.

Carried interest is recognized upon appreciation of the funds’ investment values above certain return hurdles set forth in their partnership agreement. KKR recognizes revenues attributable to capital allocation-based income based upon the amount that would be due pursuant to the fund partnership agreement at each period end as if the funds were terminated at that date. Accordingly, the amount recognized reflects KKR’s share of the gains and losses of the associated funds’ underlying investments measured at their then-current fair values relative to the fair values as of the end of the prior period. Because of the inherent uncertainty in measuring the fair value of investments in the absence of observable market prices as previously discussed, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.

Expenses

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and Benefits expense includes (i) base cash compensation consisting of salaries and wages, (ii) benefits, (iii) carry pool allocations, (iv) equity-based compensation and (v) discretionary cash bonuses.

To supplement base cash compensation, benefits, carry pool allocations, and equity-based compensation, we typically pay discretionary cash bonuses, which are included in Compensation and Benefits expense in the consolidated statements of operations, based principally on the level of (i) management fees and other fee revenues (including incentive fees), (ii) realized carried interest and (iii) realized investment income earned during the year. The amounts paid as discretionary cash bonuses, if any, are at our sole discretion and vary from individual to individual and from period to period, including having no cash bonus. We accrue discretionary cash bonuses when payment becomes probable and reasonably estimable which is generally in the period when we make the decision to pay discretionary cash bonuses and is based upon a number of factors, including the recognition of fee revenues, realized carried interest, realized investment income and other factors determined during the year.

Beginning in 2021, we expect to pay our employees by assigning a percentage range to each component of asset management segment revenues. Based on the current components and blend of our asset management segment revenues on an annual basis, we expect to use approximately: (i) 20‐25% of fee related revenues, (ii) 60‐70% of realized carried interest and incentive fees not included in fee related performance revenues or earned from our hedge fund partnerships, and (iii) 10‐20% of realized investment income and hedge fund partnership incentive fees, to pay our asset management employees. Because these ranges are applied to applicable asset management segment revenue components independently, and on an annual basis, the amount paid as a percentage of total asset management segment revenue will vary and will, for example, likely be higher in a period with relatively higher realized carried interest and lower in a period with relatively lower realized carried interest. We decide whether to pay a discretionary cash bonus and determine the percentage of applicable revenue components to pay compensation only upon the occurrence of the realization event. There is no contractual or other binding obligation that requires us to pay a discretionary cash bonus to the asset management employees, except in limited circumstances.

Assuming that we had accrued compensation of (i) 65% of the unrealized carried interest earned by the funds that allocate 40% and 43% to the carry pool and (ii) 15% of the unrealized net gains in our Principal Activities business line (in each case at the mid-point of the ranges above), KKR & Co. Inc. Stockholders’ Equity – Common Stock as of June 30, 2023 would have been reduced by approximately $1.64 per share, compared to our reported $21.99 per share on such date, and our book value as of June 30, 2023 would have been reduced by approximately $1.59 per adjusted share, compared to our reported book value of $28.17 per adjusted share on such date.

Carry Pool Allocation

With respect to our funds that provide for carried interest, we allocate a portion of the realized and unrealized carried interest that we earn to a carry pool established at Associates Holdings, which is not a KKR subsidiary, from which our asset management employees and certain other carry pool participants are eligible to receive a carried interest allocation. The allocation is determined based upon a fixed arrangement between Associates Holdings and us, and we do not exercise discretion on whether to make an allocation to the carry pool upon a realization event. These amounts are accounted for as compensatory profit sharing arrangements in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities within the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition in conjunction with the related carried interest income and are recorded as compensation expense. Upon a reversal of carried interest income, the related carry pool allocation, if any, is also reversed. Accordingly, such compensation expense is subject to both positive and negative adjustments.

In February 2021, with the approval of a majority of our independent directors, KKR amended the percentage of carried interest that is allocable to the carry pool to 65% for (i) current investment funds for which no or de minimis amounts of carried interest was accrued as of December 31, 2020 and (ii) all future funds. For all other funds, the percentage of carried interest remains 40% or 43%, as applicable. The percentage of carried interest allocable to the carry pool may be increased above 65% only with the approval of a majority of our independent directors. To account for the difference in the carry pool allocation percentages, we expect to use a portion of realized carried interest from the older funds equal to the difference between 65% and 40% or 43%, as applicable, to supplement the carry pool and to pay amounts as discretionary cash bonus compensation as described above to our asset management employees. The amounts paid as discretionary cash bonuses, if any, are at our discretion and vary from individual to individual and from period to period, including having no cash bonus at all for certain employees. See "—Revenues—Capital Allocation-Based Income (Loss)" and "—Compensation and Benefits" above.

On the Sunset Date (which will not be later than December 31, 2026), KKR will acquire control of Associates Holdings and will commence making decisions regarding the allocation of carry proceeds pursuant to the limited partnership agreement of Associates Holdings. Until the Sunset Date, our Co-Founders will continue to make decisions regarding the allocation of carry proceeds to themselves and others, pursuant to the limited partnership agreement of Associates Holdings, provided that any allocation of carry proceeds to the Co-Founders will be on a percentage basis consistent with past practice. For additional information about the Sunset Date and the Reorganization Agreement, see Note 1 "Organization" in our financial statements included in this report.

Equity-based Compensation

In addition to the cash-based compensation and carry pool allocations as described above, employees receive equity awards under our Equity Incentive Plans, most of which are subject to service-based vesting typically over a three to five-year period from the date of grant, and some of which are also subject to the achievement of market-based conditions. Certain of these awards are subject to post-vesting transfer restrictions and minimum retained ownership requirements.

Compensation expense relating to the issuance of equity-based awards is measured at fair value on the grant date. In determining the aggregate fair value of any award grants, we make judgments as to the grant-date fair value, particularly for certain restricted units with a vesting condition based upon market conditions, whose grant date fair values are based on a probability distributed Monte-Carlo simulation. See Note 20 "Equity Based Compensation,” in our financial statements included in this report for further discussion and activity of these awards.

Investment Income (Loss) -Net Gains (Losses) from Investment Activities

Net gains (losses) from investment activities consist of realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from our investment activities as well as income earned from certain equity method investments. Fluctuations in net gains (losses) from investment activities between reporting periods is driven primarily by changes in the fair value of our investment portfolio as well as the realization of investments. The fair value of, as well as the ability to recognize gains from, our investments is significantly impacted by the global financial markets, which, in turn, affects the net gains (losses) from investment activities recognized in any given period. Upon the disposition of an investment, previously recognized unrealized gains and losses are reversed and an offsetting realized gain or loss is recognized in the current period. Since our investments are carried at fair value, fluctuations between periods could be significant due to changes to the inputs to our valuation process over time. For a further discussion of our fair value measurements and fair value of investments, see the above "—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Fair Value Measurements."

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates – Insurance

Policy liabilities

Policy liabilities, or collectively, “reserves,” are the portion of past premiums or assessments received that are set aside to meet future policy and contract obligations as they become due. Interest accrues on the reserves and on future premiums, which may also be available to pay for future obligations. Global Atlantic establishes reserves to pay future policy benefits, claims, and certain expenses for its life policies and annuity contracts.

Global Atlantic's reserves are estimated based on models that include many actuarial assumptions and projections. These assumptions and projections, which are inherently uncertain, involve significant judgment, including assumptions as to the levels and/or timing of premiums, benefits, claims, expenses, interest credits, investment results (including equity market returns), mortality, longevity, and persistency.

The assumptions on which reserves are based are intended to represent an estimation of experience for the period that policy benefits are payable. Global Atlantic reviews the adequacy of its reserves and the assumptions underlying those reserves at least annually. Global Atlantic cannot, however, determine with precision the amount or the timing of actual benefit payments. If actual experience is better than or equal to the assumptions, then reserves would be adequate to provide for future benefits and expenses. If experience is worse than the assumptions, additional reserves may be required to meet future policy and contract obligations. This would result in a charge to Global Atlantic's net income during the period in which excess benefits are paid or an increase in reserves occurs.

For a majority of Global Atlantic's in-force policies, including its interest-sensitive life policies and most annuity contracts, the base policy reserve is equal to the account value. For these products, the account value represents Global Atlantic's obligation to repay to the policyholder the amounts held with us on deposit. However, there are several significant blocks of business where policy reserves, in addition to the account value, are explicitly calculated, including variable annuities, fixed-indexed annuities, interest-sensitive life products (including those with secondary guarantees), and preneed policies.

The critical accounting estimates and related sensitivities, reported below have been updated from those reported in the Annual Report to reflect the impact from the adoption of LDTI (see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our financial statements included in this report.)

Market risk benefits

Market risk benefits are contracts or contract features that both provide protection to the policyholder from other-than-nominal capital market risk and expose Global Atlantic to other-than-nominal capital market risk. Market risk benefits include certain contract features on fixed annuity and variable annuity products, including minimum guarantees to policyholders, such as guaranteed minimum death benefits (GMDBs), guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits (GMWBs), and long-term care benefits (i.e., capped at the return of account value plus one or two times the account value).

Some of Global Atlantic's variable annuity and fixed-indexed annuity contracts contain a GMDB feature that provides a guarantee that the benefit received at death will be no less than a prescribed minimum amount, even if the account balance is reduced to zero. This amount is based on either the net deposits paid into the contract, the net deposits accumulated at a specified rate, the highest historical account value on a contract anniversary, or sometimes a combination of these values. If the GMDB is higher than the current account value at the time of death, Global Atlantic incurs a cost equal to the difference.

Global Atlantic issues fixed-indexed annuity and variable annuity contracts with a guaranteed minimum withdrawal feature. GMWB are an optional benefit where the contract owner is entitled to withdraw a maximum amount of their benefit base each year.

Once exercised, living benefit features provide annuity policyholders with a minimum guaranteed stream of income for life. A policyholder’s annual income benefit is generally based on an annual withdrawal percentage multiplied by the benefit base. The benefit base is defined in the policy and is generally the initial premium, reduced by any partial withdrawals and increased by a defined percentage, formula or index credits. Any living benefit payments are first deducted from the account value. Global Atlantic is responsible for paying any excess guaranteed living benefits still owed after the account value has reached zero.

T able of Contents

The ultimate cost of these benefits will depend on the level of market returns and the level of contractual guarantees, as well as policyholder behavior, including surrenders, withdrawals, and benefit utilization. For Global Atlantic's fixed-indexed annuity products, costs also include certain non-guaranteed terms that impact the ultimate cost, such as caps on crediting rates that Global Atlantic can, in its discretion, reset annually.

See Note 18 — “Policy liabilities” for additional information.

As of June 30, 2023, the net market risk liability balance totaled $811.0 million. As of June 30, 2023, the liability balances for market risk benefits were $700.8 million for fixed-indexed annuities and $110.2 million for variable and other annuities. The increase (decrease) to the net market risk benefit liability balance as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, instrument-specific credit risk, equity market prices, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances.

Policy liabilities accounted for under a fair value option

Variable annuity contracts offered and assumed by Global Atlantic provides the contractholder with a GMDB. The liabilities for these benefits are included in policy liabilities. Global Atlantic elected the fair value option to measure the liability for certain of these variable annuity contracts valued at $353.0 million as of June 30, 2023. Fair value is calculated as the present value of the estimated death benefits less the present value of the GMDB fees, using 1,000 risk neutral scenarios. Global Atlantic discounts the cash flows using the U.S. Treasury rates plus an adjustment for instrument-specific credit risk in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The change in the liabilities for these benefits is included in policy benefits and claims in the consolidated statement of operations.

As of June 30, 2023, variable annuities accounted for using the fair value option totaled $353.0 million. The increase (decrease) in the reserves for variable annuities accounted for using the fair value option as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, instrument-specific credit risk, equity market prices, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below.

Liability for future policyholder benefits

A liability for future policy benefits, which is the present value of estimated future policy benefits to be paid to or on behalf of policyholders and certain related expenses less the present value of estimated future net premiums to be collected from policyholders, is accrued as premium revenue is recognized. The liability is estimated using current assumptions that include mortality, lapses, and expenses. These current assumptions are based on judgments that consider Global Atlantic’s historical experience, industry data, and other factors, and are updated quarterly and the current period change in the liability is recognized as a separate component of benefit expense in the consolidated income statement.

As of June 30, 2023, the liability for future policy benefits totaled $7.8 billion, net of reinsurance, split between $7.3 billion associated with payout annuity products, and $403.1 million of life and other insurance products. The increase (decrease) as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, credit spreads, expected mortality, and expected surrenders and lapses are summarized in the table below.

Additional liability for annuitization, death, or other insurance benefits: no-lapse guarantees

Global Atlantic has in-force interest-sensitive life contracts where it provides a secondary guarantee to the policyholder. The policy can remain in-force, even if the base policy account value is zero, as long as contractual secondary guarantee requirements have been met. The primary risk is that the premium collected under these policies, together with the investment return Global Atlantic earns on that premium, is ultimately insufficient to pay the policyholder’s benefits and the expenses associated with issuing and administering these policies. Global Atlantic holds an additional reserve in connection with these guarantees.

T able of Contents

The additional reserves related to interest-sensitive life products with secondary guarantees are calculated using methods similar to those described above under “Policyholder liabilities— Market risk benefits.” The costs related to these secondary guarantees are recognized over the life of the contracts through the accrual and subsequent release of a reserve which is revalued each period. The reserve is calculated based on assessments, over a range of economic scenarios to incorporate the variability in the obligation that may occur under different environments. The change in the reserve is included in policy benefits and claims in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2023, the interest-sensitive life additional liability balance totaled $5.0 billion. The increase (decrease) to the interest-sensitive life additional liability balance, as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, equity market prices, annual equity growth, expected mortality, and expected surrenders are summarized in the table below.

Embedded derivatives in policy liabilities and funds withheld

Global Atlantic's fixed-indexed annuity, variable annuity and indexed universal life products contain equity-indexed features, which are considered embedded derivatives and are required to be measured at fair value.

Global Atlantic calculates the embedded derivative as the present value of future projected benefits in excess of the projected guaranteed benefits, using an option budget as the indexed account value growth rate. In addition, the fair value of the embedded derivative is reduced to reflect instrument specific credit risk on Global Atlantic's obligation (i.e., Global Atlantic's credit risk).

Changes in interest rates, future index credits, instrument-specific credit risk, projected withdrawal and surrender activity, and mortality on fixed-indexed annuity and interest-sensitive life products can have a significant impact on the value of the embedded derivative.

Valuation of embedded derivatives – Fixed-indexed annuities

Fixed-indexed annuity contracts allow the policyholder to elect a fixed interest rate of return or a market indexed strategy where interest credited is based on the performance of an index, such as the S&P 500 Index, or other indexes. The market indexed strategy is an embedded derivative, similar to a call option. The fair value of the embedded derivative is computed as the present value of benefits attributable to the excess of the projected policy contract values over the projected minimum guaranteed contract values. The projections of policy contract values are based on assumptions for future policy growth, which include assumptions for expected index credits, future equity option costs, volatility, interest rates, and policyholder behavior. The projections of minimum guaranteed contract values include the same assumptions for policyholder behavior as are used to project policy contract values. The embedded derivative cash flows are discounted using a risk-free interest rate increased by instrument-specific credit risk tied to Global Atlantic's own credit rating.

Valuation of embedded derivatives – Interest-sensitive life products

Interest-sensitive life products allow a policyholder’s account value to grow based on the performance of certain equity indexes, which result in an embedded derivative similar to a call option. The embedded derivative related to the index is bifurcated from the host contract and measured at fair value. The valuation of the embedded derivative is the present value of future projected benefits in excess of the projected guaranteed benefits, using the option budget as the indexed account value growth rate and the guaranteed interest rate as the guaranteed account value growth rate. Present values are based on discount rate curves determined at the valuation date/issue date as well as assumed lapse and mortality rates. The discount rate equals the forecast treasury rate increased by instrument-specific credit risk tied to Global Atlantic’s own credit rating. Changes in discount rates and other assumptions such as spreads and/or option budgets can have a substantial impact on the embedded derivative.

Valuation of embedded derivatives in modified coinsurance or funds withheld

Global Atlantic's reinsurance agreements include modified coinsurance and coinsurance with funds withheld arrangements that include terms that require payment by the ceding company of a principal amount plus a return that is based on a proportion of the ceding company’s return on a designated portfolio of assets. Because the return on the funds withheld receivable or payable is not clearly and closely related to the host insurance contract, these contracts are deemed to contain embedded derivatives, which are measured at fair value. Global Atlantic is exposed to both the interest rate and credit risk of the assets. Changes in discount rates and other assumptions can have a significant impact on this embedded derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivatives is included in the funds withheld receivable at interest and funds withheld payable at interest line items on our consolidated statement of financial condition. The change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives is recorded in net investment-related gains (losses) in the consolidated statement of operations.

As of June 30, 2023, the embedded derivative liability balance totaled $2.8 billion for fixed-indexed annuities, and $447.0 million for interest-sensitive life. The increase (decrease) to the embedded derivatives on fixed-indexed annuity and indexed universal life as a result of hypothetical changes in interest rates, credit spreads, and equity market prices are summarized in the table below. This sensitivity considers the direct effect of such changes only and not changes in any other assumptions used in or items considered in the measurement of such balances.
