See “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K for a discussion of potential risks and uncertainties that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or liquidity. In addition, we have amended one of those risk factors in the 1Q26 Form 10-Q as set forth below. As of the date of this Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risks and uncertainties disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K and the 1Q26 Form 10-Q.
Previous wording
The risks and uncertainties disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K and in this Form 10-Q are not the only risks and uncertainties facing us, and additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or liquidity. We may disclose changes to such risks and uncertainties or disclose additional risks and uncertainties from time to time in our future periodic filings with the SEC.

Previous wording
Previously, certain of our individual assets represented a significant portion of the fair value of our capital provision assets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, one set of exposures to the YPF-related assets accounted for approximately 46% and 42% of the fair value of our capital provision assets. The fair value of the YPF-related assets (both Petersen and Eton Park combined) on our consolidated statements of financial condition was $2.6 billion and $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with unrealized gains of $2.4 billion and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As a result of the YPF Judgment Reversal in March 2026, and consistent with our valuation policy, we recorded a substantial write-down of the fair value of the YPF assets as of March 31, 2026. See “Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations—Results of operations and financial condition—Fair value of capital provision assets—Fair value of YPF-related assets” for additional information with respect to the YPF-related assets.
