KKR Announces Intra-Quarter Monetization Activity Update for the Fourth Quarter

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KKR today announced income from monetization activity in excess of $525 million with respect to the period from October 1, 2025 through December 19, 2025 based on information available as of today. The quarter-to-date monetization activity is made up of approximately 95% realized performance income and approximately 5% realized investment income. Approximately 45% of realized performance income is driven by revenues from our strategic hedge fund partnerships that correspond to a 10-20% compensation rate.

The monetization figures above exclude the impact of the previously disclosed Asian Fund II obligation.

The quarter-to-date monetization activity is driven by a combination of public secondary sales and strategic transactions, dividends and interest income, as well as incentive fees from Marshall Wace.

The estimate disclosed above is not intended to predict or represent total realized performance income, total realized investment income or total revenues for the full quarter ending December 31, 2025, because it does not include the results or impact of any other sources of income, including fee income, or expenses, and we may realize further gains or losses relating to total realized performance income and total realized investment income after the date of this press release. The estimate disclosed above is based on information available to us as of today with respect to the period from October 1, 2025 through December 19, 2025. This estimate is also not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other period, including the entire year ending December 31, 2025.
