Current report

Our asset management business is affected by the financial market and economic conditions in the various countries and regions in which we operate. Price fluctuations within equity, credit, interest rates and foreign exchange markets can be volatile and mixed across the various geographies, which can have a substantial impact on the performance of our business in various ways.

Current report

•Our flagship opportunistic credit strategy, Global Opportunities, aims to generate consistently strong risk adjusted returns by investing in a diverse set of opportunities including distressed liquid credit, rescue financings, debtor-in-possession loans, bankruptcy exits, loan portfolios, platform investments, and opportunistic capital solutions in key economic regions across the globe.

Current report

Base management and advisory fees, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $815 million, which represents an increase of $100 million or 14% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Management fee revenues increased by $29 million from capital raised for our latest global transition fund, $17 million from capital raised for our latest real estate flagship fund, and $17 million from insurance capital inflows from BWS. In addition, management fees increased $16 million from an increase in the trading price of BIP and $13 million due to NAV increases of BPG.

Current report

The unrealized carried interest allocation of $63 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 represents a net decrease of $118 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The gross decrease of $189 million compared to the prior period reflects lower relative valuations across mature real estate flagship funds and various private equity funds. This was partially offset by a gross increase of $71 million in unrealized carried interest driven by changes in fund valuations associated with our infrastructure flagship funds for $47 million and our global transition flagship funds for $24 million.

Current report

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.1 billion, of which $1.2 billion was attributable to common stockholders. This compares to net income of $891 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, of which $936 million was attributable to common stockholders.

Current report

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $2.2 billion, which represents an increase of $371 million or 21% compared to $1.8 billion of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

Incentive fees for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were $233 million, an increase of $21 million or 10% from the six months ended June 30, 2024, driven by a 6% growth in BIP dividends of $13 million and 5% growth in BEP dividends of $8 million.

Current report

The unrealized carried interest allocations of $61 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 represents an increase of $18 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was driven by a gross increase of $157 million in unrealized carried interest driven by changes in fund valuations across the latest vintages of our flagship funds. This was partially offset by a gross decrease of $150 million compared to the prior period reflecting lower relative valuations across various mature real estate flagship funds.

Current report

Interest and dividend revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $47 million, which represents a decrease of $36 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to lower interest income earned on our deposit with BN.

Current report

Total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $1.1 billion, an increase of $278 million or 36% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Current report

Compensation and benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $663 million, which represents an increase of $111 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was attributable to higher share-based compensation expense of $38 million on our share and performance-based awards due to an increase in the trading price of BAM Class A Shares during the period. The remaining increase is due to higher compensation costs from the ongoing growth of our business.

Current report

Other (expenses) income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $137 million compared to $48 million in the prior period. The increase was driven by a mark-to-market decrease of $76 million compared to the prior period on our investment in BSREP III, and the remaining movement was due to mark-to-market movements on put and call options to acquire additional interests in Oaktree, Primary Wave, LCM and Castlelake.

Current report

Our share of income from equity method investments was $239 million compared to $133 million in the prior period, an increase of $106 million. This is predominantly driven by higher earnings of $30 million from our investment in Oaktree due to carried interest earned on legacy funds, $55 million earned from our investment in Castlelake which we acquired in September 2024, with the remainder earned from other equity method investments.

Current report

Income tax expense was $150 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which represents a decrease of $63 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in income tax expense was predominantly a result of lower taxable income reported by our business compared to the prior period.

Current report

Total assets were $16.1 billion as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $2.0 billion or 14% compared to December 31, 2024.

Current report

Cash and cash equivalents were $480 million as at June 30, 2025, an increase of $76 million or 19% from December 31, 2024. This was largely driven by cash inflows of $750 million from BAM's inaugural debt offering which was completed in April 2025. The increase was partially offset by cash outflows of approximately $650 million due to investments made in Oaktree, Concora, and Primary Wave, as well as share buybacks during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report

•An economic interest in Castlelake of $758 million (2024 – $538 million);

Current report

Current report

During the period, investments increased by $374 million primarily due to Castlelake's acquisition of Concora, which comprised of a $116 million contribution to Castlelake and an $81 million direct investment. In addition, investments increased as a result of step-up investments in Oaktree and Primary Wave, as well as an increase in accumulated unrealized carried interest on new funds, partially offset by decreased accumulated unrealized carry on mature funds.

Previous report

The unrealized carried interest allocations of $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 represents an increase of $136 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Previous report

Cash and cash equivalents were $332 million as at March 31, 2025, a decrease of $72 million or 18% from December 31, 2024.

Previous report

Fee-Bearing Capital was $549 billion as at March 31, 2025 compared to $539 billion as at December 31, 2024. The increase of $10.5 billion was primarily attributable to fundraising and capital deployments across our strategies, including additional closes in our fifth real estate flagship fund and the second vintage of our global transition fund. In addition, net inflows of insurance capital in BWS, fundraising in our strategic partnerships, and capital deployed in our Oaktree credit and other platform credit funds also added to our Fee-Bearing Capital.

Previous report

The overall increase of Fee-Bearing Capital was partially offset by distributions to our clients, maturities of annuities, and outflows due to redemptions within our liquid and perpetual strategies.

Previous report

Fee Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $1.3 billion, an increase of $187 million or 17% compared to the prior period. This increase was predominantly due to an increase in base management fees of $177 million or 18%, driven by capital deployed across our credit strategies, higher Fee-Bearing Capital of BPG, and higher net asset values in certain of our credit funds. Fees earned from fundraising across the latest vintages of our flagship funds over the last twelve months also generated incremental Fee Revenues, specifically our fifth real estate fund and the second vintage of our global transition fund. Fee Revenues also increased from incremental fees as a result of earnings from certain of our partner managers, capital raised in BWS, and the AEL Mandate. These increases in base management fees were partially offset by distributions and lower net asset values in certain of our perpetual strategies and long-term private funds.

Previous report

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Fee-Bearing Capital increased by $6.2 billion to $100 billion. This increase was predominantly due to inflows attributable to a close in our fifth flagship fund and equity issuances in BPG. Additional closes and capital deployed across other fund strategies also contributed to our Fee-Bearing Capital. These increases were partially offset by distributions from our permanent and perpetual strategies, and earlier flagship and other private funds. Foreign exchange also lowered Fee-Bearing Capital during the period.

Previous report

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Fee Revenues increased by $85 million or 36% relative to the three months ended March 31, 2024. This was primarily from fees earned from our long-term private funds, driven by fundraising and catch-up fees from our fifth flagship fund and an increase in fees earned by our perpetual vehicle due to the increase in Fee-Bearing Capital of BPG. These increases were partially offset by distributions and lower net asset values in certain of our perpetual strategies and long-term private funds.

Previous report

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Fee-Bearing Capital increased by $6.8 billion or 3% to $252 billion, primarily due to net inflows of insurance-related capital in BWS and capital deployed in our twelfth flagship opportunistic credit fund and other platform credit funds. In addition, valuation gains and capital deployed in certain Oaktree liquid credit funds also added to Fee-Bearing Capital. These increases were partially offset by redemptions in our liquid and perpetual strategies, and returns of capital within our Oaktree and real estate debt strategies.
