Assets under management (“AUM”) totaled $61.9 billion as of June 30, 2011, up from $54.4 billion as of June 30, 2010.

Fee related earnings (“FRE”) were $76.1 million and $202.3 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, up from FRE of $63.3 million and $153.7 million in the comparable periods of 2010.

Gross distributable earnings were $103.2 million and $296.2 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, up from gross distributable earnings of $77.1 million and $161.9 million in the comparable periods of 2010.

Economic net income (“ENI”) was $315.0 million and $1,057.5 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, down from ENI of $433.1 million and $1,107.9 million in the comparable periods of 2010.

After-tax ENI was $0.36 and $1.32 per adjusted unit for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, down from $0.48 and $1.41 per adjusted unit in the comparable periods of 2010.

GAAP net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. was $39.6 million and $199.2 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, up from $29.9 million and $143.7 million in the comparable periods of 2010.

Book value was $6.3 billion on a segment basis as of June 30, 2011, representing $9.22 per adjusted unit.

KKR & Co. L.P. declares a second quarter distribution of $0.11 per common unit.

NEW YORK--()--KKR & Co. L.P. (NYSE: KKR) today reported its second quarter 2011 results.

AUM was $61.9 billion as of June 30, 2011, up 13.8% from June 30, 2010. The increase resulted from continued investment appreciation as well as new capital raised, partially offset by distributions to the limited partners of our investment funds. Fee paying assets under management (“FPAUM”) were $46.4 billion as of June 30, 2011, up 11.5% from June 30, 2010. The increase was driven primarily by new capital raised.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011, our private equity investments appreciated 3.8% and 10.1%, respectively. ENI was $315.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $118.1 million, or 27.3%, as compared to ENI of $433.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. ENI was $1,057.5 million for the first six months of 2011, a decrease of $50.4 million, or 4.5%, as compared to ENI of $1,107.9 million for the first six months of 2010. The decrease in both comparative periods was primarily due to a lower level of investment income earned from our principal investments. While the fair value of our principal investments increased during the second quarter and first six months of 2011, the level of appreciation was lower than in the comparable periods of 2010.

“In an increasingly challenged global economic environment, our business continued its growth trajectory across all segments,” said Henry R. Kravis and George R. Roberts, Co-Founders, Co-Chairmen, and Co-Chief Executive Officers of KKR. “Our private equity investments outperformed the S&P 500 by nearly 400 basis points for the quarter, while our liquid credit strategies maintained top-quartile rankings, beating their benchmarks since inception. In addition, activity has been particularly robust despite the market volatility. This is especially true for our Private Markets segment, where we have announced 12 new investments and several realizations around the world since March 31.”

GAAP RESULTS

GAAP results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011 included net income attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. of $39.6 million and $199.2 million, respectively, and net income per common unit attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. of $0.18 and $0.92, respectively.

L.P. was $29.9 million and $143.7 million, respectively, and net income per common unit attributable to KKR & Co. L.P. was $0.15 and $0.70, respectively.

SEGMENT RESULTS

Private Markets

AUM was $47.1 billion as of June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.9 billion, or 1.9%, compared to AUM of $46.2 billion as of March 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to appreciation in the fair value of KKR’s private equity portfolio and new capital raised for the natural resources strategy, partially offset by distributions to the limited partners of KKR’s private equity funds arising from realizations.

FPAUM was $38.4 billion as of June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.5 billion, or 1.3%, compared to FPAUM of $37.9 billion as of March 31, 2011. The increase was primarily due to new capital raised for the natural resources strategy, partially offset by distributions to the limited partners of KKR’s private equity funds arising from realizations.

FRE was $37.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 10.2%, compared to FRE of $42.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to higher compensation and other operating expenses in connection with the expansion of KKR’s business, partially offset by an increase in management fees related to new capital raised over the past year.

FRE was $128.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $30.1 million, or 30.6%, compared to FRE of $98.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily driven by (i) higher monitoring fees as a result of $76.6 million of termination payments on monitoring agreements with three portfolio companies during the six months ended June 30, 2011, which impacted FRE by $39.7 million net of associated fee credits and (ii) an increase in management fees related to new capital raised. These increases were partially offset by higher compensation and other operating expenses in connection with the expansion of KKR’s business.

ENI was $128.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $26.9 million, or 17.3%, compared to ENI of $155.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to lower net carried interest resulting from a higher level of management fee refunds and to a lesser extent the decrease in FRE discussed above.

ENI was $404.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $56.0 million, or 16.1%, compared to ENI of $348.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily driven by (i) the increase in FRE discussed above and (ii) higher net carried interest resulting from a lower level of management fee refunds.

Public Markets

AUM was $14.9 billion as of June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.1 billion, or 0.7%, compared to AUM of $14.8 billion as of March 31, 2011. FPAUM was $8.0 billion as of June 30, 2011, an increase of $0.2 billion, or 2.6%, compared to FPAUM of $7.8 billion as of March 31, 2011. For both AUM and FPAUM, the increases were attributable to appreciation in the net asset value of certain investment vehicles and new capital raised, partially offset by distributions to and redemptions by credit strategy investors.

FRE was $20.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $9.0 million, or 76.3%, compared to FRE of $11.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. FRE was $35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $7.9 million, or 28.8%, compared to FRE of $27.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in both comparative periods was primarily due to growth in management fees related to new capital raised and higher incentive fees, partially offset by higher compensation expense in connection with the development of the equity strategies platform.

ENI was $21.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $9.2 million, or 75.4%, compared to ENI of $12.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. ENI was $37.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $8.8 million, or 31.0%, compared to ENI of $28.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in both comparative periods was primarily driven by the increase in FRE discussed above.

Capital Markets and Principal Activities

FRE was $17.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $8.0 million, or 84.2%, compared to FRE of $9.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. FRE was $38.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $10.7 million, or 38.4%, compared to FRE of $27.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in both comparative periods was primarily driven by a higher level of overall capital markets transaction activity partially offset by higher compensation expense, both of which reflect the growth and continued build-out of this business.

ENI was $165.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $100.3 million, or 37.7%, compared to ENI of $265.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. ENI was $615.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $115.1 million, or 15.8%, compared to ENI of $730.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in both comparative periods was primarily due to a lower level of investment income. While the fair value of KKR’s principal investments increased during the second quarter and first six months of 2011, the level of appreciation was lower than in the comparable periods of 2010.

CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

As of June 30, 2011, KKR had an available cash balance of $952.5 million and $500.0 million of outstanding debt obligations under its senior notes. KKR’s availability for further borrowings was approximately $1.3 billion (which does not include a $500.0 million revolving credit facility for use in its capital markets business that was undrawn as of June 30, 2011).

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

KKR intends to make quarterly cash distributions in amounts that in the aggregate are expected to constitute substantially all of the cash earnings of its investment management business each year in excess of amounts determined by KKR to be necessary or appropriate to provide for the conduct of its business, to make appropriate investments in its business and its investment funds and to comply with applicable law and any of its debt instruments or other agreements. KKR does not intend to distribute gains on principal investments, other than certain additional distributions that KKR may determine to make. These additional distributions, if any, are intended to cover certain tax liabilities, as calculated by KKR. When KKR & Co. L.P. receives distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships (the holding companies of the KKR business), KKR Holdings receives its pro rata share of such distributions from the KKR Group Partnerships. For the purposes of KKR’s distribution policy, its distributions are expected to consist of an amount consisting of (i) FRE, (ii) carry distributions received from KKR’s investment funds which have not been allocated as part of its carry pool, and (iii) any additional distributions for certain taxes as described above. This amount is expected to be reduced by (i) corporate and applicable local taxes, if any, (ii) noncontrolling interests, and (iii) amounts determined by KKR to be necessary or appropriate for the conduct of its business and other matters as discussed above.

The declaration and payment of any distributions are subject to the discretion of the board of directors of the general partner of KKR & Co. L.P. and the terms of its limited partnership agreement. There can be no assurance that distributions will be made as intended or at all or that such distributions will be sufficient to pay any particular KKR unitholder’s actual U.S. or non-U.S. tax liability.

KKR
Notes to Reportable Segments (Unaudited)

The reportable segments for KKR’s business are presented prior to giving effect to the allocation of income (loss) between KKR & Co. L.P. and KKR Holdings L.P. and as such represent the business in total.

Definitions

Fee related earnings (“FRE”) is comprised of segment operating revenues, less segment operating expenses. The components of FRE on a segment basis differ from the equivalent U.S. GAAP amounts on a consolidated basis as a result of: (i) the inclusion of management fees earned from consolidated funds that were eliminated in consolidation; (ii) the exclusion of fees and expenses of certain consolidated entities; (iii) the exclusion of charges relating to the amortization of intangible assets; (iv) the exclusion of charges relating to carry pool allocations; (v) the exclusion of non-cash equity charges and other non-cash compensation charges borne by KKR Holdings or incurred under the KKR & Co. L.P. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan; (vi) the exclusion of certain reimbursable expenses; and (vii) the exclusion of certain non-recurring items.

Economic net income (“ENI”) is a measure of profitability for KKR’s reportable segments and is comprised of: (i) FRE; plus (ii) segment investment income, which is reduced for carry pool allocations and management fee refunds; less (iii) certain economic interests in KKR’s segments held by third parties. ENI differs from net income on a GAAP basis as a result of: (i) the exclusion of the items referred to in FRE above; (ii) the exclusion of investment income relating to noncontrolling interests; and (iii) the exclusion of income taxes.

ENI, after taxes is calculated by deducting from ENI the implied income tax provision that has been calculated assuming that all income is allocated to KKR & Co. L.P., which would occur following an exchange of all KKR Holdings units for common units of KKR & Co. L.P. The assumptions and methodology used to calculate the implied income tax provision are consistent with those used in calculating the tax provision for KKR & Co. L.P. under GAAP. The implied income tax provision does not give effect to any tax savings or deductions that may result from the exchange of KKR Holdings units.

Assets under management (“AUM”) represent the assets from which KKR is entitled to receive fees or a carried interest and general partner 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 plus uncalled capital commitments from these funds; (ii) the fair value of investments in KKR's co-investment vehicles; (iii) the net asset value of certain of KKR's fixed income products; (iv) the value of outstanding structured finance vehicles; and (v) the fair value of other assets managed by KKR. KKR's definition of AUM is not based on any definition of AUM that is set forth in the agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages or calculated pursuant to any regulatory requirements.

Fee paying AUM (“FPAUM”) represents only those assets under management from which KKR receives fees. FPAUM is the sum of all of the individual fee bases that are used to calculate KKR’s fees and differs from AUM in the following respects: (i) assets from which KKR does not receive a fee are excluded (i.e., assets with respect to which it receives only carried interest) and (ii) certain assets, primarily in its private equity funds, are reflected based on capital commitments and invested capital as opposed to fair value because fees are not impacted by changes in the fair value of underlying investments.

Committed dollars invested is the aggregate amount of capital commitments that have been invested by KKR’s investment funds and carry-yielding co-investment vehicles during a given period. Such amounts include: (i) capital invested by fund investors and co-investors with respect to which KKR is entitled to a carried interest and (ii) capital invested by KKR.

Uncalled commitments represent 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.

Adjusted units represent the weighted-average fully diluted unit count for ENI purposes using the if-converted method. See Exhibit B for a reconciliation of this item to the comparable GAAP measure.

Core interest expense excludes interest expense related to debt obligations from investment financing arrangements related to certain of KKR’s private equity funds, investment vehicles and principal investments. These financing arrangements are not direct obligations of the general partners of KKR’s private equity funds or its management companies. On a segment basis, interest expense is included in other investment income.

Fee Credits require KKR to share an agreed upon percentage of monitoring and transaction fees received from portfolio companies with limited partners in certain of its investment funds. Limited partners receive fee credits only with respect to monitoring and transaction fees that are allocable to their fund’s investment in the portfolio company and not, for example, any fees allocable to capital invested through co-investment vehicles. Fee credits are calculated after deducting certain fund-related expenses and generally amount to 80% of allocable monitoring and transaction fees after fund-related expenses are recovered, although the actual percentage may vary from fund to fund.

KKR Carry Pool represents a portion of the carried interest earned in relation to certain of KKR’s active and future investment funds and co-investment vehicles that will be allocated to its principals, other professionals and selected other individuals.

Management Fee Refunds represent 20% of any cash management fees earned from limited partners in the event that certain of KKR’s investment funds recognize a carried interest. At such time as the fund recognizes a carried interest in an amount sufficient to cover 20% of the cash management fees earned or a portion thereof, carried interest is reduced, not to exceed 20% of cash management fees earned.

Noncontrolling interests represent economic interests that will (i) allocate to a former principal an aggregate of 1% of profits and losses of its management companies until a future date and (ii) allocate to a third party investor an aggregate of 2% of the equity in KKR’s capital markets business.

You should note that KKR’s calculation of FRE, ENI, ENI, after taxes, AUM and FPAUM may differ from the calculation of other investment managers and, as a result, its measurements of FRE, ENI, ENI, after taxes, AUM and FPAUM may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other investment managers.
