Inflows include contributions, capital raised, other increases in available capital (recallable capital and increased side-by-side commitments), purchases, inter-segment allocations and

acquisitions. Outflows represent redemptions, client withdrawals and decreases in available capital (expired capital, expense drawdowns and decreased side-by-side commitments).

Realizations represent realization proceeds from the disposition or other monetization of assets, current income or capital returned to investors from CLOs. Market Activity includes

realized and unrealized gains (losses) on portfolio investments and the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations. AUM is reported in the segment where the assets are managed.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES – NOTES

 

Note:  See pages 36-38, Definitions and Dividend Policy.

 

(a)

This adjustment removes Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation. Transaction-Related
and Non-Recurring Items arise from corporate actions including acquisitions, divestitures, Blackstone’s initial public offering, and non-recurring gains,
losses, or other charges, if any. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses on contingent consideration arrangements,
changes in the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreement resulting from a change in tax law or similar event, transaction costs, gains or losses associated
with these corporate actions, and non-recurring gains, losses or other charges that affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of
Blackstone’s operational performance.

(b)

This adjustment removes the amortization of transaction-related intangibles, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation.

(c)

This adjustment reverses the effect of consolidating Blackstone Funds, which are excluded from Blackstone’s segment presentation. This adjustment
includes the elimination of Blackstone’s interest in these funds and the removal of amounts associated with the ownership of Blackstone consolidated
operating partnerships held by non-controlling interests.

(d)

This adjustment removes Unrealized Performance Revenues on a segment basis. The Segment Adjustment represents the add back of performance
revenues earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been eliminated in consolidation.

Investment Income, including general partner income, earned from consolidated Blackstone Funds which have been eliminated in consolidation, and
(2) the removal of amounts associated with the ownership of Blackstone consolidated operating partnerships held by non-controlling interests.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES – NOTES (CONT’D)

 

 

(j)

Taxes represent the total GAAP tax provision adjusted to include only the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on Income (Loss) Before Provision
(Benefit) for Taxes and adjusted to exclude the tax impact of any divestitures. For interim periods, taxes are calculated using the preferred annualized
effective tax rate approach. Related Payables represent tax-related payables including the amount payable to holders of the Tax Receivable Agreements
based on expected tax savings generated in the current period. Please refer to page 36 for the full definition of Taxes and Related Payables.

NOTES

 

 Notes to page 4 - Investment Performance and Net Accrued Performance Revenues

 

  §   The changes in carrying value, fund returns and composite returns presented throughout this presentation represent those of the applicable
Blackstone Funds and not those of Blackstone.

 

  §   Core+ appreciation represents a weighted average of BREIT’s per share appreciation, BEPIF’s per share appreciation, and BPP’s appreciation for
the period. The returns are weighted based on the average of BREIT’s monthly net asset values, BEPIF’s monthly net asset values, and the
average of BPP’s quarterly adjusted beginning period market values for the period.

 

  §   Throughout this presentation, Secondaries reflects Strategic Partners and GP Stakes unless otherwise indicated. Results for the Secondaries
business refer to the appreciation of the Strategic Partners funds and do not include results for GP Stakes. Strategic Partners results are
reported on a three-month lag from fund financial statements, which generally report underlying investments on a same-quarter basis, if
available. As a result, the appreciation presented herein does not include the impact of economic and market activity in the current quarter.
Current market activity is expected to affect reported results in upcoming quarters.

 

  §   Effective 1Q’25, Private Credit returns were amended to include only the Flagship commingled funds across the opportunistic lending, global
middle market direct lending funds (including BXSL, BCRED, and ECRED strategies), stressed/distressed strategies, and non-investment grade
infrastructure and asset-based credit strategies. Separately managed accounts, funds with a limited number of limited partners that are not
broadly marketed, inactive investment strategies, unlevered funds within a strategy that has designated levered and unlevered sleeves, and
Multi-Asset Credit strategies are excluded. Liquid Credit returns include CLOs, closed-ended funds, open-ended funds and separately managed
accounts. Only fee-earning funds exceeding $100 million of fair value at the beginning of each respective quarter-end are included. Funds in
liquidation, funds investing primarily in investment grade corporate credit and asset-based finance are excluded. Blackstone Funds that were
contributed to Blackstone Credit as part of Blackstone’s acquisition of Blackstone Credit, formerly known as GSO, in March 2008 and the pre-
acquisition date performance for funds and vehicles acquired by Blackstone Credit subsequent to March 2008, are also excluded.

 

  §   The Absolute Return Composite gross and net returns are based on the Multi-Asset Investing (“BXMA”) Absolute Return Composite, which
includes only BXMA-managed commingled and customized multi-manager funds and accounts and does not include BXMA’s liquid solutions group,
seeding, multi-strategy, and advisory (non-discretionary) platforms, except for investments by Absolute Return funds directly into those
platforms. BXMA-managed funds in liquidation and, in the case of net returns, non fee-paying assets are also excluded. The funds/accounts that
comprise the Absolute Return Composite are not managed within a single fund or account and are managed with different mandates. There is
no guarantee that BXMA would have made the same mix of investments in a stand-alone fund/account. The Absolute Return Composite is not an
investible product and, as such, the performance of the Absolute Return Composite does not represent the performance of an actual fund or
account.

 Notes to page 17 – Deconsolidated Balance Sheet Highlights

 

  §   GP/Fund Investments include Blackstone investments in Real Estate, Private Equity, Credit & Insurance, and Multi-Asset Investing, which were
$594 million, $1.5 billion, $988 million, and $113 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2025. Cash and Net Investments per share amounts are
calculated using period end DE Shares Outstanding (see page 24, Share Summary).

NOTES – (CONT’D)

 

 Notes to page 23 – Shareholder Dividends

 

  §   DE before Certain Payables represents Distributable Earnings before the deduction for the Payable Under Tax Receivable Agreement and tax
expense (benefit) of wholly owned subsidiaries. Common shareholders receive tax benefits from deductions taken by Blackstone’s corporate tax
paying subsidiaries and bear responsibility for the deduction from Distributable Earnings of the Payable Under Tax Receivable Agreement and
certain other tax-related payables.

 

  §   Per Share calculations are based on end of period Participating Common Shares (page 24, Share Summary); actual dividends are paid to
shareholders as of the applicable record date.

 

  §   Retained capital is withheld pro rata from common shareholders and Blackstone Holdings Partnership unitholders. Common shareholders’ share
was $124 million for 1Q’25 and $539 million for 1Q’25 LTM.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY

 

Blackstone discloses the following operating metrics and financial measures that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other
than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”) in this presentation:

 

  §   Segment Distributable Earnings, or “Segment DE”, is Blackstone’s segment profitability measure used to make operating decisions and assess
performance across Blackstone’s four segments. Segment DE represents the net realized earnings of Blackstone’s segments and is the sum of Fee
Related Earnings and Net Realizations for each segment. Blackstone’s segments are presented on a basis that deconsolidates Blackstone Funds,
eliminates non-controlling ownership interests in Blackstone’s consolidated operating partnerships, removes the amortization of intangible assets
and removes Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items. Segment DE excludes unrealized activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but
not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

    Net Realizations is presented on a segment basis and is the sum of Realized Principal Investment Income and Realized Performance Revenues
(which refers to Realized Performance Revenues excluding Fee Related Performance Revenues), less Realized Performance Compensation
(which refers to Realized Performance Compensation excluding Fee Related Performance Compensation and Equity-Based Performance
Compensation).

 

    Segment Revenues represent Net Management and Advisory Fees, Fee Related Performance Revenues, Realized Performance Revenues and
Realized Principal Investment Income.

 

  §   Distributable Earnings, or “DE”, is derived from Blackstone’s segment reported results. DE is used to assess performance and amounts available
for dividends to Blackstone shareholders, including Blackstone personnel and others who are limited partners of the Blackstone Holdings
Partnerships. DE is the sum of Segment DE plus Net Interest and Dividend Income (Loss) less Taxes and Related Payables. DE excludes unrealized
activity and is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before
Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

    Net Interest and Dividend Income (Loss) is presented on a segment basis and is equal to Interest and Dividend Revenue less Interest Expense, adjusted for the impact of consolidation of Blackstone Funds, and interest expense associated with the Tax Receivable Agreement.

 

    Taxes and Related Payables represent the total GAAP tax provision adjusted to include only the current tax provision (benefit) calculated on
Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes and including the Payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Further, the current tax
provision utilized when calculating Taxes and Related Payables and DE reflects the benefit of deductions available to the company on certain
expense items that are excluded from the underlying calculation of Segment DE and Total Segment Distributable Earnings, such as equity-
based compensation charges and certain Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items where there is a current tax provision or benefit. The
economic assumptions and methodologies that impact the implied income tax provision are the same as those methodologies and assumptions
used in calculating the current income tax provision for Blackstone’s consolidated statements of operations under U.S. GAAP, excluding the
impact of divestitures and accrued tax contingencies and refunds which are reflected when paid or received. The Payable under the Tax
Receivable Agreement reflects the expected amount of tax savings generated in the period that holders of the Tax Receivable Agreements are
entitled to receive in future periods. Management believes that including the amount payable under the tax receivable agreement and
utilizing the current income tax provision adjusted as described above when calculating DE is meaningful as it increases comparability
between periods and more accurately reflects earnings that are available for distribution to shareholders.

 

  §   Fee Related Earnings, or “FRE”, is a performance measure used to assess Blackstone’s ability to generate profits from revenues that are
measured and received on a recurring basis and not subject to future realization events. FRE equals management and advisory fees (net of
management fee reductions and offsets) plus Fee Related Performance Revenues, less (a) Fee Related Compensation on a segment basis, and
(b) Other Operating Expenses. FRE is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable GAAP measure of Income
(Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.
 

 

   
    

 

Blackstone |  36

 


 

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

 

 

    Fee Related Compensation is presented on a segment basis and refers to the compensation expense, excluding Equity-Based
Compensation, directly related to (a) Management and Advisory Fees, Net and (b) Fee Related Performance Revenues, referred to as Fee
Related Performance Compensation.

 

    Fee Related Performance Revenues refers to the realized portion of Performance Revenues from Perpetual Capital that are (a) measured
and received on a recurring basis, and (b) not dependent on realization events from the underlying investments.

 

    Other Operating Expenses is presented on a segment basis and is equal to General, Administrative and Other Expenses, adjusted to
(a) remove the Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items that are not recorded in the Total Segment Measures, (b) remove certain
expenses reimbursed by the Blackstone Funds which are netted against Management and Advisory Fees, Net in Blackstone’s segment
presentation, and (c) give effect to an administrative fee collected on a quarterly basis from certain holders of Blackstone Holdings
Partnership Units. The administrative fee is accounted for as a capital contribution under GAAP, but is reflected as a reduction of Other
Operating Expenses in Blackstone’s segment presentation.

 

    Perpetual Capital refers to the component of assets under management with an indefinite term, that is not in liquidation, and for which
there is no requirement to return capital to investors through redemption requests in the ordinary course of business, except where funded
by new capital inflows or where required redemption requests are limited in quantum. Includes co-investment capital with an investor right
to convert into Perpetual Capital.

 

    FRE Margin is calculated by dividing Fee Related Earnings by Fee Related Revenues (defined as the sum of Total Segment Management and
Advisory Fees, Net and Fee Related Performance Revenues).

 

  §   Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization, or “Adjusted EBITDA”, is a supplemental measure used to
assess performance derived from Blackstone’s segment results and may be used to assess its ability to service its borrowings. Adjusted EBITDA
represents Distributable Earnings plus the addition of (a) Interest Expense on a segment basis, (b) Taxes and Related Payables, and
(c) Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is derived from and reconciled to, but not equivalent to, its most directly comparable
GAAP measure of Income (Loss) Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes.

 

  §   Performance Revenues collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fees, and (b) Performance Allocations.

 

  §   Performance Compensation collectively refers to: (a) Incentive Fee Compensation, and (b) Performance Allocations Compensation.

 

    Performance Compensation reflects an increase in the aggregate Realized Performance Compensation paid to certain of our professionals
above the amounts allocable to them based upon the percentage participation in the relevant performance plans previously awarded to
them as a result of a compensation program that commenced in 2Q’21. The expectation is that for the full year 2025, Fee Related
Compensation will be decreased by the total amount of additional Performance Compensation awarded for the year. For 1Q’25 QTD, the
increase to Realized Performance Compensation was greater than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which negatively impacted
Distributable Earnings for the current year quarter. For 1Q’25 LTM, the increase to Realized Performance Compensation was less than the
decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which favorably impacted Distributable Earnings for the current year LTM period. For 1Q’24 QTD,
the increase to Realized Performance Compensation was greater than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which negatively
impacted Distributable Earnings for the prior year quarter. For 1Q’24 LTM, the increase to Realized Performance Compensation was less
than the decrease to Fee Related Compensation, which favorably impacted Distributable Earnings for the prior year LTM period. These
changes typically have an impact on individual quarters but do not impact Income Before Provision (Benefit) for Taxes and Distributable
Earnings for the full year.

DEFINITIONS AND DIVIDEND POLICY – (CONT’D)

 

 

  §   Transaction-Related and Non-Recurring Items arise from corporate actions including acquisitions, divestitures, Blackstone’s initial public
offering, and non-recurring gains, losses, or other charges, if any. They consist primarily of equity-based compensation charges, gains and losses
on contingent consideration arrangements, changes in the balance of the Tax Receivable Agreement resulting from a change in tax law or
similar event, transaction costs, gains or losses associated with these corporate actions, and non-recurring gains, losses or other charges that
affect period-to-period comparability and are not reflective of Blackstone’s operational performance.

Dividend Policy. Blackstone’s intention is to pay to holders of common stock a quarterly dividend representing approximately 85% of Blackstone
Inc.’s share of Distributable Earnings, subject to adjustment by amounts determined by Blackstone’s board of directors to be necessary or
appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and funds, to comply with applicable law,
any of its debt instruments or other agreements, or to provide for future cash requirements such as tax-related payments, clawback obligations and
dividends to shareholders for any ensuing quarter. The dividend amount could also be adjusted upward in any one quarter. All of the foregoing is
subject to the qualification that the declaration and payment of any dividends are at the sole discretion of Blackstone’s board of directors and our
board of directors may change our dividend policy at any time, including, without limitation, to reduce such quarterly dividends or even to
eliminate such dividends entirely.
