Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

Incentive fees consisted of carried interest and performance fees. Carried interest decreased $2.5 million, or 14%, to $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to lower distributions and lower carry realizations during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Performance fees increased $9.8 million to $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to fees earned from funds with fiscal year ends different than calendar year end during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Performance fees are generally determined at the end of the year and are generally minimal in interim periods.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

Employee compensation and benefits decreased $46.9 million, or 41%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The overall decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in partnership interest-based compensation, partially offset by increases in cash-based incentive fee related compensation and equity-based compensation. Partnership interest-based compensation decreased $51.5 million, or 82%, primarily due to expense recorded for the Holdings Awards during the three months ended June 30, 2023 (as further described in Note 9 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 2 of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). These awards do not dilute Class A common stockholders or impact our net cash flows. Cash-based incentive fee related compensation increased $3.5 millionfor the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to higher performance fees during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Equity-based compensation increased $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily driven by increases in awards granted and vested during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
